time to slp, nights!

Tuesday, August 26, 2008

We are all at home now! no work today because its Malaysia's election day and those ministers are coming over to penang i think.. so they declare today as a public holiday. This means that i'm able to sleep until 12pm. Exactly like the weekends.

Last weekend was really fun. We get to travel out ourselves for the first time without any supervisors around us!

For saturday, we went out with alastair's friend, Eldric who came down to penang to visit him and since he can drive and has a car, the guys went out together in the evening. Went to super tanker (tank it!) for dinner first then we bought food back for the girls. After that its guy's night out. Went to eldric's place first cuz alastair said it was totally awesome so we mus go check it out. It was located at gurney drive.. the name of the condo is Gurney palace.. and its beside Michelle yeoh's condo, the one that she owned. The car park itself is already filled with luxury sports cars! Mercedes bmw audi etc etc. Damn nice. His house is on the 29th floor, a penthouse. I really like how the way operate.. One must use a card to access to the 29th floor.. which means the whole corridor is literally theirs. Maybe all condos are like that.. i dont know, never experience one like this before :(

And this is his house!


I think its the biggest and most beautiful house that i ever been to. Too bad dont have a picture of the main door. Its very big. Like those Ballroom door that kind. The kitchen is damn nice also! but i guess the main attraction is the movie theatre room ( the bottom left picture ). The sound system is damn bloody good. The bass can cause the whole room to vibrate. The couch is damn comfortable too. Its like everyone's dream room! The view from the balcony is also damn nice. Alastair said that the coral reefs can be seen in the day. That's how beautiful the seaview is from the balcony. I will gladly sleep at the balcony if im asked too. Don't have to worry about mosquito because i bet they cant fly so high up lol.

So after exploring the house, we went down to a cafe called "martini cafe". The place is nice but its suprisingly souless when we went in. We went there at around 9pm.. maybe its still early for those late night party goers to appear.



The drinks were alright. Not that costly compared to singapore. The potato wedges is seriously cheap and nice though. $4.50rm for 1 plate! Played some dice games there and we went back to the house at around 10. Eldric went to fetch his parents back home and then we all watched the movie "secretary" at the movie room. The movie was alright.. quite a weird yet unique storyline.

Ate some ice kachang and and chendol after the movie and the his dad drove us back home. Memorable guys night out!


On sunday, we went to queensbay mall to walk walk. Took a bus there! had to do some research on which bus to take beforehand. The journey was around 10 mins.. 4 stops only! and its 1 dollar per trip! Went to the food court fer lunch first and then alastair and yh went to a salon for a haircut



So i went to topman to check out some tees. Saw a nice polo tee but i think it costs around the same price as the ones in Sg. No sale somemore :( so left there emptyhanded.

Went to catch Walle in the evening. The show onfirmed that I'm not a cartoon lover because i fell asleep at the start for around 15mins. Don't quite understand the show lol but didnt bother too. The characters were cute though especially eve.

Oh and they are screening Money not enough 2 on the 28th of august. Maybe will go and catch it again.

For dinner, we wanted to try the pasta at pizza hut but after when we decided on the menu, they told us that their oven broke down.. so no baked rice and pasta lol WTF!

So we went to kenny rogers instead. Its been a long long time since i last ate there. I only remember having dinner there with ly and gang when we were sec 2 or 3? The muffin is stil the best! Ordered the quarter chicken meal and it wasnt that filling. The side dishes were nice.. especially the potato salad.

Managed to catch the last bus back home!

and thats how the weekends was spent

Work yesterday was alright. Dont have anything interesting to write about it.

Lastly, a picture of us!




The girl on the extreme is joyce.. our house mate and colleague. Shes a really nice girl.. willing to drive us to work everyday, bring us to the laundry and for lunch and dinner, crapping with us in the car and tolerating our laughters and madness every night.



Raymond with a provocative pose here. He is definitely asking for it! haha


Will update again soon.. bye all and take care!

Friday, August 22, 2008

its 1250am now! getting late.. but all 6 of us is still awake. Normally the 2 girls will be in dreamland at this time and maybe alastair too. Raymond , yong han and me is always the few who sleeps late.

Dont have much things to do now so i decided to update a little.

Today is probably the slackiest day of my attachment because i chose to be lazy :(. Didnt really do much work.. spent most of the time IRC-ing and disturbing people. Yeap its mIRC. Really damn funny to see those despo guys in there trying to hook up wif some girl. All of this is able to keep me occupied for almost the whole day lol. But i shall not continue to laze around from tmr onwards. I try!

Left the office early today so that we can go visit the laundry.. but sadly they weren't open today. Need to wait till saturday.. which means i need to reuse some of my berms :( cuz i dun really like to wear jeans to work.

Went to gurney drive for dinner. Very nice and cheap food there. The place is something like our lau pat sat, just that the price and taste of the food is totally different. Went to gurney plaza to walk a little after dinner and then got back home at around 1030pm

Friday tmr and then the long awaited weekends. Dont have any plans for the weekends this time round. We'll see what can we do tmr!

will update again soon

bye all and take care!

nights

im in penang office now :( sigh back to work work

The 2 days stay in Singapore was good though it can be better if its not for some delaying at the singapore custom. The whole journey back was around 12 hours. Left in the morning, reached at night and thus couldnt meet up with people after that cuz its late already. But the feeling of being back home is still the best! because i get to gallivant around without having to be afraid of losing my way. In Penang, we can only travel away from our house with our supervisors because we don't know the place well :( .

Saturday night was spent talking to my family and unpacking some stuff.

Woke up at around 12pm the next day. Watched the olympics replay on tv. Im sure alot of people will know about the 2 particular events that made the headline. Michael phelps's fingernail touch of victory and usain bolt's crazy speed. Insane bolt would sound better!

Its been a long time since i get to watch the TV so i sat and enjoy the shows for around 2 hours. Went to 201 to have a hair cut afterwards. Waited for around 20mins for my turn! damn long but nvm at least its cheap and the standard is still can make it. Met eric at TM to catch Money not enough 2 in the evening. Caught the 455 show instead of the 410 because the tix are all sold out for the latter.

The show was really meaningful and funny! just like what i expected from a jack neo's film. So to those who haven't watch it, you shld do so this weekend or smth!

Watch some tv when i got home. The table tennis girls team finals! A pity that singapore lost but at least they managed to reach their target and also to create history. Bloody china so pro :@

Watched the first match of the BPL. Man u vs newcastle. Ended up in a stalemate. :( but nvm thats what happened to man u last season.. and they still won the double he he

Reached golden mile at around 820am yesterday to catch a ride back to penang. Eric and the rest was over there to see me off again. Thanks alot guys. The bus left at 9am and had to bid farewell to my family and friends once again :(. But i will be back again in 1 months time! This time round, the coach is better than the previous one that we took back to Singapore. The whole coach is practically ours. Theres only 1 lady and the 6 of us in it so its free more or less free seating. The sound system of the mini tv is way better than the previous coach. They provide us with headphones this time! whereas the speakers is attached to the head of the chair in the previous coach and the sound is scarcely audible.

Watched 3 movies during the whole 11 hours journey. namely Just follow law, Secret and Die hard 4. Didnt really sleep much compared to the journey back but still enough to keep me awake when we reached penang

Thats about it! Time to start work now.

All the best to those whom are in the midst of semester exams! 1 and a half months of break for you after that! lucky shit!

take care and bye bye

Dawn yeoh vector


Dawn yeoh original picture

Finally after months of delaying, i managed to finish this vector piece. My first vector art!
Quite pleased with the outcome though the skin colour is darker than the original :(. My favourite part would be the shirt and the hair. Shall design the background some other time.

Maybe i will do another vector on her next time


work work!
work work!

Its 1020am now and im in the office, drinking milo. Just had breakfast which one of our staff and housemate, Joyce bought for us. Thank you. Normally i dont really start work until around 11am because the mood just isnt right before that.. actually its procrastinating

On my com, surf the web, check email, read some news, eat my breakfast in the pantry and chat with the rest.. thats why i do when i reach the office.

Couldnt get myself to sit down and type a new entry fer the past few days because im feeling damn lazy to do so. I also reluctantly did my eSIP yesterday and the day before. Maybe because when i reach home after work, i just want to sit down relax and enjoy the remaining few hours before bedtime. Play games, guitar and crap around with friends.. sadly, blogging just isnt one of them.

As for work, im being assigned to create a website for an ERP system. Did research on some flash banners tutorial and also search for some templates to steal /gg. They encourage copyright here so its all good! In the midst of doing so, i found out some new stuff called Flash components. Its something like those components in flex and its really nice! Ask me about it if you want to know more.

Our house has wireless internet access now! So i wont have to look forward to going to the office every day just to quickly on my com and surf the net.

Andd lastly! we are going back to singapore tmr! Our coach is at 930, so will reach singapore at arond 7pm :( No idea what to do throughout the whole journey. Planning to watch Money not enough 2 tmr night! but we will be in singapore until monday only :( Need to take a coach back on monday morning :@:@

All in all, life over here is pretty good! Amount of mosquitos decreased drastically. Comfortable sleeps and playing dota with the guys against bots at night is where all the laughters came from

Shall start work now! see u guys soon and take care!

Shall blog abit before i start to do some work

Yh and me had been transfered to penang to work on monday.. so we are in the penang office now! yes its an office.. no more living room office haha and theres jiayi, munyee,raymond and alastair over here too so its fun and enjoying to work here.

Yh and me was assigned to create a website for a company thats dealing with some glass products and our dateline is on friday. Very little programming done here.. its mainly on design and also doing things that we already learnt in school so its less frustrating!

Our house is like those typical 3 room flats in Singapore. Although the facade looks old and creepy, the interior suggested otherwise. Its alot cleaner than our house in Selangor and the toilet is big! Though there isnt any air cons in the house, the fans is suffice to have a comfortable sleep. However, the downside of living here is that there is no internet access at home :( hence the reason why i'm not online in the night. But we are still able to survive with some movies at night and some card games etc. No tv here too haha so we had to use our laptops for movies. Im seriously deprived of tv shows now!

Theres also a giant opposite our house and the best thing is that we are longer located on a hill top!

Quite lazy to take pictures :( maybe soon

okay time to continue with work

shall update soon!

bye and take care
