Project Natal XBox

Wow~ I don't mind how this platform to be out. Surely to be one hell of an entertainment box. But's a bit tiring~ :P Enjoy~

Monsters vs Aliens

A good animation movie. It was funny when the other monsters appear on screen. But weird that I didn't laugh much, just one time. Maybe the mood was not right. Anyway, it is indeed a nice movie. Have to watch it~

45 lessons life taught me by Regina Brett

Written By Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland, Ohio

"To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written. My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:"

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.
2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.
3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.
5. Pay off your credit cards every month.
6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.
8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.
9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.
10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.
12.. It's OK to let your children see you cry.
13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.
15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.
16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind..
17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.
19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.
20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.
21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.
23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.
24. The most important sex organ is the brain.
25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.
26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words ''In five years, will this matter?".
27. Always choose life.
28. Forgive everyone everything.
29. What other people think of you is none of your business.
30. Time heals almost everything. Give time, time.
31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
32. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
33. Believe in miracles.
34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.
35. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.
36. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.
37. Your children get only one childhood.
38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.
41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
42. The best is yet to come.
43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
44. Yield.
45. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift.

Ulu Yam

On a beautiful Sunday morning where most of the people will decide to sleep through it, me and couple of friends woke up at 6am in the morning and decided to go for a drive. We went Ulu Yam. Our usual Sunday drive route. Stopped for Ulu Yam Loh Mee before proceeding to Gohtong Jaya and all the way up to Genting Highland.

Waiting for Man Utd. to arrive in Kuala Lumpur

I know how much I wanted Barcelona to win Man Utd. but since they are coming over to Malaysia during their Asia Tour; I don't mind watching them play and thrash the Malaysia Team :P I got the training pass too~ Woohoo~ Meaning I might be able to get close to them and take photos with them~ :)

Back to WorkOut

I have been away from my regular exercise for almost 2 years now.. or even more than that. Time to get back into shape~ :)

Night at the Museum 2

My wife was away again; she works for a travel agency anyway. Hehehe~ so got to make some plans on my own and decided to watch a movie. Can't watch it alone even though I still do that sometimes. Called up some friends and we went to Pavilion and watch the "Night at the Museum 2". Ben Stiller movie's are always funny and interesting to watch. This time is so much better as it involves a few museums rather than just sticking to only one. I will recommend this movie to everyone, from kids to adults. You guys just have to watch it.

my-Kart Driver's Briefing Presentation Layout

It was time for some upgrade for my-Kart's Driver Briefing material. After a meeting, they wanted to have it projected on screen. So I came out with a simple yet professional looking presentation for the club. At the moment, it is still in the process of completion. I will update more pictures of the design later. So for now, enjoy a couple of the page.

By the way, I am not afraid to say this - It has been more than 4 years that I stopped designing almost anything. So please bear with me, if you think the design is not good. And the background image is taken from my brother's laptop wallpaper~ :P

My photos being published

Well.. it ain't some big shot magazine or being published on TV; my photos are published on someone else's blog. Yea~!!! Not long ago, we and Eva went to a Nyonya Restaurant and I took some photos. They love some of the shots and took the photos down and published it on their own personal blog. Check it out at the link:

Glory Glory Barcelona

Sacrificing my sleep that night was worth it watching Barcelona thrashing Manchester United in a 2-0 game. Have to wake up at 2am in the morning just to catch the European Champion League Finale 2008/09. The game started with Man U applying pressure from mostly Ronaldo strikes. Either his shots were merely on target or straight to the keeper. But as the game moved on, Barcelona somehow got their momentum and spirit back on form and scored in their 1st attempt by Eto. It went all the way to 45 minutes with just 1 goal. 2nd half starts with Man U creating more mistakes than the 1st, allowing Barcelona to give more pressure to them. An open header for Messi sealed the title for Barcelona. An interesting game and again, a game that worth skipping my sleep for it.
