Boyz in Da House

Tonite Jasmine is off to Penang for training tomorrow and will be back in the evening. So I'm left with the kiddos on Saturday. Lotz of plan already in my head, firstly I'm taking them for a swim in the public pool with my friends...

..and probably hang at somewhere with wi-fi connection for lunch as Mickey can play with Yahoo games and makan at the same time. I know I'm spoiling them but hey, it's not a daily thingy. We'd probably hang around the house after that... while daddy takes evening nap..hehe.

I enjoy having boyz in the house. Kinda having small sized buddies stayin together with you...don't you think so?
Oh yeah, for friends who knows Zehn..his current favorite tune is Shane Ward's - No Promises and What Goes Around Comes Around by Justin Timberlake. Boy does he sing when the tune in on air... :)

New breath for aging pet.

After having my faithful Kancil car for over 12 years, it's really time for a full overhaul of the engine. The car gets me to alot of places and saves me bundles of money. The car also taught me lessons after being towed 3 times in it's lifespan till now. Love that car.

So after checking for a good place for an overhaul, I finally go to one workshop here in Pumpong. The towkey told me that to overhaul will cost me two thousand bucks , whereas if I change the whole engine, it will cost me less than a thousand bucks. So it became an obvious choice..

..anyway as he was tryin to explain to me that he does this engine change thing always, he's pointing out to blocks of engine from various cars to show me...

"Ini kereta Toyota punya, dua belas valve punya..ini pun kita tukar, ini kancil punya, serupa lu punya.. ini CAMALA punya..."

"Aik? Kereta apa tu?"

By this time I thought he also changed a Camaro's engine for a car that looks like this..


...then I ask again.."kereta apa? CAMALA ka..." then he says "Ya lah.."

Then I had a deep thought......oh I see its a..


Kembara. (Oo..not the sportscar lah..)

..and the last but not least..

Bravo for my nephew for getting something out of the Xplorace IT held last weekend. I 'm suppose to enter and a friend of mine had asked me to browse in the Explorace website by TV3 instead. So after seeing a pic like this..

..I sorta freak out. There's no way I'm going to do that! This pic is probably taken from the bridge in Kuala Kedah which is freakin-ly high or if the organisers are REAL nutty people, they'd probably ask the contestants to absail from the Telekom tower. So..no freakin thanks.

Anyway, he didn't have to do that. Apart from my nephews and niece growing up around computers and mistaking computer parts as legos, he got 3rd prize.

I still remember the time he is growing up - playing with different OSes, viruses on his computer and siblings bickering to mummy would be - "..mama tengok lah abang nie, dia ambil display card adik!.."

Have a break...have a www.citcat.com

Visited the ICT Exhibition held at Suka Menanti, Alor Star today and found out about this company that does the translation to attract web traffic to their site.


The result is quite a good I might add and I am pretty surprised. After being translated though, I wonder if my not so savvy friends would be able to actually understand the terms used in malay instead.

Well for me in particular, it's difficult to grasp when this Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) is being translated as "Jauh Dibedah Kenderaan-Kenderaan".
I just realised my IQ isn't as good in malay... :)

..now THAT's a joke..

Paris Hilton was released within 3 days by some Sheriff because of medical reason. She was sentenced earlier to a jail term of 3 weeks....




Anyway..What was the Judge thinking? Could you contain a blond bombshell who looks like this in jail for that long?...
Plus...she's filthy rich. She just have to come up to one of the warden and say something like, "..you know, I won't forget the favors you did for me once I'm out..." and she'd live like the Queen of England already in there..

But hey, 3 weeks IS TOO LONG. So I guess she'll split in 3 days anyway.. coz being in jail is kinda boring hor..





I'm guilty..

I do believe I'm guilty if ever I'm caught by the fitness police. I've been having these 3 days straight and loving it..

I think I need to stay a fugitive and make another mangkuk of these for myself.

Looks inviting lah..

I live in a bumpy world..

As if Alor Star isn't one of the slow-life city of the country, I just realized that when sending my kids to their granny's home in the morning - I have to actually go over 20 speed bumps to and fro....mm..imagine that..

Small bang.

Got myself these small speaker for the phone by accident actually. Had the guy at the shop tested it for fun and the sound...whoa...cannot tahan liao. Anyway the guy was looking at me and my phone strangely enough to have song like 50cent's - In Da Club, Teriyaki Boyz etc.





He said even his phone doesn't carry such songs. He said "...ini phone betul kah lu punya..kita macam ini umur pun tak ada ini lagu loh.."



Being probably half my age, I politely told him "Ini lagu untuk orang tua. Orang muda dengar lagu lain.."
