I bought a N55SF and after a while I noticed a disturbing stream of cracking noise which really bothers me. Not only it cracks in the speakers but it also cracks in my headphones. And while I thought that this problem only occurs on my laptop, but I also found out that it happens on other Asus laptops series too.

After wandering in Lowyat forum for a while, I found out a forumer posted a pretty simple solution. But the fix is only viable if you are not using the RJ45 ethernet jack. If you are using Wifi then yeap, just do it!

1. Go to Device Manager, either from control panel or simply type it in your Start Search.
2. Find the device under the category of Network Adapters, make sure you choose the Gigabit Ethernet Controller like the one in le photo.
3. Right click and DISABLE it. Voila!

If you want to use the ethernet jack again, all you have to do, is follow steps 1 and 2, and at the third step, click ENABLE.

 

Black Ops 2 trailer is released. I watched it and frankly I kinda loved it. But I noticed people are quarreling in the comment section that BO2 gonna sucks and MW3 rules. Reasons are CoD franchise is becoming weirder and weirder and not the classic CoD anymore. Ahem.

First, Treyarch is making different games that encompass different eras, different technologies and different political situations. If they make the exact same games like Infinity Ward did to the Modern Warfare series, it ended up like crap. Frankly I play Black Ops single player again and again but I don’t want to play MW campaign for the second time. Black Ops campaign has totally different setups in between missions but Modern Warfares’ missions are the same!

Oh not to mention, what if a burger shop selling one burger that has two different names and appear on the menu at the same time? if you want the classic gameplay go for the old games you moron, if you want something new like me I would buy the new game, period. They are doing it right.

People need to stop whining ‘we need something new’ on old CoD comment section, and ‘you guys screwed the new cod’ on BO2 comment section. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it, as simple as that.

TakeUrTime, for your information, is the best UCTI/APIIT timetable viewing utility ever built. Lemme tell you why:

• Only this runs on multiple-platform, I am talking not only about PC or Mac, but on iOS, Android, Blackberry, and Windows Phone. As long as the operating systems and browsers are updated, you name it, you got it.
• This is extremely quick, and offline-capable.
• This is the most beautiful form of APIIT timetable can ever be shown, to date.
• It works like magic on iPhone and iPod Touch, seriously, no zooming in required.
• Updates? No sweat, everything is automated. Seriously who wants to go to download site just to download a shmall update?
• Who the hell want to use executable file just for a small task? Plus it poses security issues if not code correctly.
• Best of all TakeUrTime has a developer API and notes built in.
• Not to mention I have my own database to backup these timetables.

What if UCTI webspace is down? TakeUrTime survives, period.

If your program doesn’t solve the problem its supposed to solve, what is the point of its existence? Ask yourself.

On Time for Facebook sucks

• It’s not offline-capable
• Such a torture to view on mobile devices
• Oh you need Facebook! Dah I just go to webspace, thats quicker. No wait, TakeUrTime, 1 or 2 seconds!
• It dies when UCTI webspace is down
• Who cares about next lesson or tomorrow’s lectures?

Simple Timetable for APIIT sucks, big time!

• Again it looks terribly ugly
• For every updates from the developer you have to download from MediaFire or RapidShare
• Who the hell cares about Status message when they can see their timetable?
• Same as On Time, it dies when UCTI webspace is down.
• Windows only, you helping Microsoft to monopolize market or you want people to bring a Wintel laptop just to view timetable?

As you see the previous attempts didn’t solve the problem. I think the programmers did it just to kao lui, to attract chicks and such.

I am sacked

As my sales record is zero. Gosh the following problems contributed to such failure:

1. Spent too much time explaining lappies without closing the sales
2. Helped other promoters out of mercy, without grab away theirs
3. I gave the one and only sale to my friend

Generally, I guess I am too soft, although I am really happy to see people smiling and intrigued by the lines of laptops, I ended up getting sacked for zero sales record. How ironic.

In fact I helped a senior promoter from being raped by a programmer who asked about how to upgrade to Win7Pro. The malay that give us briefing tell him to buy pirate and format the laptop. I then told him that he can use Windows Anytime Upgrade to do it, since Windows discs are all the same, meaning that we all installed the same thing, the difference is determine by the product key. For every single time Windows boots up, it checks your product key and activates different background services for you.

Sometimes I still can’t fathom that the fact the less techie ones get the sales, I mean the girls.

The problem: I didn’t want to be promoter, I want to be promoters’ technical assistant without commission, meaning helping them out a while when they get screwed by tough customers. Xancy Tan of Thunder Match replied Noted with Thanks but the outcome is… assigned as frontline promoter with commission. I am not good at sales but I am the best when talks about and choosing the right laptops. I guess the problem is… people like Derrick are a little bit too simple minded, and he has terrible English (we speak Chinese but he insist on using crippled English).

Most promoters suck at tech

Only a few seniors and Aravind that I recommended can totally handle the job of explaining laptops. The girls are maybe, just lucky, or simply their sweet appearance that gained them businesses.

Seriously they will miss me, I showed them Ultrabook’s famous 10-secs bootup, ambient light sensors of XPS series, infrared simulated touch screen of All-In-One PC, and other little tiny bits like AlienFX editor, Dell Stage. They need a technical explanation guy like meeeee….

PC Fair? Oh I just found business opportunities for my primary business.

I deserve to get sacked for this. I can engage pretty well with intrigued customers, and I will ask about their business, and when I found that their business opens an opportunity to my freelance company I will start to give them contact numbers to me and my partner.

But I only gave two away, the first one is a boss who just started an Android App developing company, they are looking for web marketing guys, which is, us. I instantly introduced our business and some of our previous clients and he is definitely interested, I just gave him our numbers but I forgot to take his.

The second one is actually my first sale (I gave it away) , she is a tough customer and has a business of supplying Chinese medicines to SEA. I asked her whether they got a website. She said no. And I suggested that she should actually open an online store. Guess what she wants that all along but dunno who to ask. I instantly gave her our numbers, and still forgot to take hers.

Razer cheered us up!

Razer has set up an event booth, selling nothing but have a big stage and loud speakers. This seriously sucked away the attention of people from other booths there. They hired 6 dancing babes that keep on throwing gifts (keychain straps, hats, tumblers, headbands, but sometimes Ferox, Naga mice) and 10 Dota 2 players! The match is fairly interesting but I can’t watch for long as I am not supposed to.

At about 8.30 pm I still distributing pamphlets, with Alienware on top side when approaching Razer booth. I handed to a guy but he rejected it, I saw his face, it’s damn familiar. And I was surprised that he is actually CEO of Razer, Tan Min Liang. Oh well not many people surrounded him, that’s abnormal. I guess he looks down on Alienwares and plays on his Razer Blade.

Later I saw a guy wearing an e-club Malaysia uniform. I started to talk to him, all the rubbish like you guys are selling Valve games ah? And in 3rd minute I started to ask him “Where can I get Dota 2 key ah?”. Guess what, he took out a piece of paper containing a list of product keys, and he tear one for me, he told me to activate at Steam. Seriously I have no idea how much they worth. But the guy said Valve might release Dota 2 for free, like Team Fortress 2 did last year!

My friend wants to pay 5 bucks to buy the strap from me. Nah! That’s my prize

That is not the job that I like

It’s damn obvious assigning me to do something idiotic is not going to be productive, 50 bucks for a day is pretty low -.-”

I insulted myself, seriously, this time. I applied for this one because I want to offer a higher quality service for PIKOM PC Fair. I wish PC fair has more techy promoter like me so the confusions of the customer can be solved. However the company’s agenda in this event, is to maximize profit, they want to get more for less, as less as possible.

Now we know why PIKOM PC Fair promoters are kinda, unprofessional in explaining to customers, they are considered pro to the dealers though, who are the ones that attempt to squeeze the most out of them.

In fact, a little optional training session for promoters might help!

Nevertheless…

What did I get from PC Fair? Dota 2 product key for free, a Razer strap, 2 potential clients, and saw chicks and babes.

And so I want to buy a laptop…

And it’s PC Fair time! And after weeks of research, Google and forum reading, I decided I gonna get an Asus N55SF for my college as well as my future gaming life. So I saw Asus booth and went there, hope I can get a demo to play around and ask some advance technical things that may not be covered in online articles or YouTube reviews.

The booth is pretty nicely decorated, owned by ThunderMatch. There is a room created specially for N55 for visitors to experience its amazing sound quality. The sound is crisp, loud and bassy. Lot better than other lappies out there I believe. There is no game demo though

Speaking of games, I was a little worried bout its battery life. But a that time I still haven’t learn how to manually switch between graphics cards for power efficiency. So I decided to ask a young female promoter to demonstrate how to switch between gfx cards.

And the infinite loop begins! She asked another guy, and the another guy asked another one, and so on. Nobody at the booth knows how to do that. So I said ‘Screw it, let’s talk bou the price’ Immediately their Genius $$ mode switched on. The guy sure knows how to talk about price! But when I can’t stop myself from asking bout the specs, he stuck and tries to get over it! What the hell is this kind of ‘promoter’ if they don’t know bout laptops and computers! I am getting curious.

At the end I didn’t buy laptop from them, weeks after I bought it from forumer, which sells fresh lappies.

Getting behind the front line

It’s bout PC fair season again. And I saw Thunder Match posted a post bout hiring for PC fair on their Facebook Timeline. AND SO I applied and want to see how they hire, filter and teach their promoters. The first phase observation is rather surprising.

I sent an email, of my name, IC, and my preference of laptop + no-commission + as tech support class. That means I have no intention to be promoter I just want to help promoters if they got stuck in techs.

At the time of writing, it’s Tuesday, 3 days away from PC fair.

I got a classmate to go with me, Aravind Radha. He is good at choosing laptop brands, I am not that good but I am technical literate, I can explain most things that those promoters I met in December can’t.

There are lots of Chinese lil teenagers, most of them, weirdly dressed, like Hipsters and some of them are simply provocative. They don’t look like they know things about PC inside workings and knowledge of comparing parts! There is no interview, you are called inside, they tell you what to do.

Aravind is assigned to sell HP printers (I told laptop supervisor that he is good at laptop after that) while I am assigned to sell Dell laptops. And then 30 minutes of speech. The supervisor/team leader/whatever, Derrick is horrible in English, 20% of the time used to talk a little bit about Dell’s on-site support, McAfee and different series. And hoola, 80% of the time talking about credit card charges extra 4%, how to deal with customers, our minimum target of 15 lappies over 3 days, and if promoters got any problem, FIND HIM.

That’s the reason! If the supervisor is already cocky in front of what he is selling, how you expect his minions to do a better job? And he forgot to say that XPS 13 uses SSD! He only say ultrabook but didn’t go much into what Ultrabook is! Is that the way most PC fair booths work?

Then a more interesting fact came in, he asked whether anybody went to PC fair before. Only me and another malay/indian guy raised his hand up, none of the Chinese raise their hand up! C’mon they have no passion or interest in computer at all! If they have zero passion in computer, how you expect them to persuade customers into buying laptops? The reason why Steve Jobs is so successful is not only that he is creative, he is passionate in what he is doing! He loves his own products!

Seriously, the supervisor should talk more about what each series do, and tell everybody to go home and stdy bout it.

Nevertheless, I came for some… experience and insights.

Now I spill something here.

Pay per day if less than target: RM50
Commission per machine (laptop/touch screen): RM15
Pay per day if more than target: RM100

Is the pay good? Your choice.

Other PC Fair problems…

At the last hall, you will see telcos hire soooo many people line up and distribute brochures and pamphlets. You are physically spammed by their hands and vocal boxes. This is too much!

The fake products (Beats headphones especially) should not ever ever show up at PC Fair, it makes the whole event like, flea market? Pasar Malam?

PIKOM should so something about these, the quality of the previous years’ PC Fair must be restored! Apple booths are so far the best actually, their employees definitely know what they are selling, they don’t hire at last minute.

Felt offended by this post? I bet you are one of them!

So here’s the problem, GrabUrTime cannot work offline, means when I bring my iPod Touch around and there’s no WiFi, I can only rely on screenshots of my timetable, that’s so uncool. Plus On Time UCTI and other timetable apps sucked. Seriously.

The solution? Make an app that can work offline! Without knowledge on system programming, I have to use what I got, HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, PHP and AJAX. The key here is Application Cache and Local Storage of HTML5, without them TakeUrTime will be a mission impossible without system programming.

To use TakeUrTime, you will need to use browser that supports HTML5 and localStorage, which is not a problem if you are not using ancient Internet Explorer.

It will give you the timetable database as well as the week of the timetable, and some metadata that might be useful to track version and check if the timetable is obsolete.

[for UCTI students only]

If you have used the webspace timetable lookup utility, chances are you have spend at least 1 or 2 minutes just to find your timetable, and the extreme downside is you can’t bookmark timetable page showing the specific intake. Here comes the solution, make a new one.

GrabUrTime is a more graphical, accessible UCTI timetable viewing utility, syncs everyday at 2am, support Facebook social plugins, bookmarking, setting as default and especially its highly graphical user interface.

During mid-autumn festivals (or you might say, mooncake festivals, which is wrong), you will notice Chinese often exchange mooncakes. But under the hood, most people don’t even like toeat mooncake, they are fatty, high in calories, creamy and too sweet to some. At the end there are so many mooncakes leftovers that we have to dump them into dustbins, that’s wastage.

Hell, this is not only the case of mid-autumn festival, there are many other festivals (I can’t name all of them) that people keep on giving gifts under the heavy coercing from the merchants, keep on promoting mooncakes in supermarkets or advertising in media. Well they are pretty successful.

And now, there are ice-cream mooncakes, yoghurt, sushi mooncakes, and more “innovations” coming into the market. Personally I still prefer the traditional baked mooncake. So is the festival all about selling, giving and dumping mooncakes? Well, for the mooncake bakeries yes.

Festivals are used to celebrate something, not selling something.

To those who decides not to go to your graduation,

You got the following reasons, or excuses:

1. School is hogging your money
2. It’s boring
3. It’s meaningless

Or let me sum it up for you:

• My friends are not going, I’m a crowd follower, I don’t want to be teased, keep it simple, I’m not going too.

I decided to post this after our school is because in this way, I won’t be blamed by all of you, that I’m a very, very harsh critic.

School is not hogging your money, and to those who got the yellow mini book during graduation, you will notice how desperate school is trying to get money to host your graduation. They found about 10 sponsors, and they even have to invite the principal of a college to advertise their institute. By the way, the free goodie bags are not free to you, instead they are a way to advertise. Much like product placement in movies.

Next it’s boring? True, it’s boring, because it’s formal, no party, no prom night, and no alcohols. But do you know that photo shooting session is where the fun at? One day you will regret that on Facebook, there are so many photos that you friends have taken at MPAJ auditorium, and you were not there? It’s a once in a lifetime deal, you let it go, don’t even try to ask everybody come and take a photo again.

It’s meaningless? You sure? A few years after you will change your mind on this.

Your absence shows that you are not being supportive.

One subject, chinese left… so SPM is unofficially over.

We all can’t deny that, for a typical Malaysian, SPM is the most important exam in our life, as it dictates our future by qualifying us to different qualities of tertiary education, and later determine what kind of career we will go for. As torturing as it seems, we take it as a big challenge and we embrace it miserably… Miserable, that’s what it’s going to be for most of us at March, when we get our results.

Among the 3 language subjects, malay is unnecessarily hard, why? Because I only use malay to talk to the mamak waiters, order Roti Canai n Teh Tarik.

Among the 3 science subjects, only physics is going to be useful in the future. The game industry needs lots of physics engine, but no such chemistry or biology engine…

Add Maths and Maths are going to prove themselves useful in near future… as we have to study it in tertiary education.

But moral… I think our own principle is suffice to make the world a better place. I don’t think memorizing 36 values and definitions is going to make the world better.

And sejarah, stop spamming me with the lies and deceptions. I don’t believe at 610 A.D. there will be mobile phones for your ‘god’ to send SMS to you, just to tell everybody to read. And war without killing is a big joke.

Finally, everybody laughs after SPM. And I am so happy to sign as witness for Biology Paper 3 for my exam centre.

GG SPM~

Siri still did not fix the way handphone and human beings should communicate. You still have to follow certain templates that still make iPhone a little tech savvy like, and certainly average joes will not use Siri that much.

Though many web sites now starting to report the humor of Siri, I think the GLaDOSiri is still the best. GLaDOS is the infamous sinister AI character in the game Portal and Portal 2, and because of her sarcasm a video producer combined her with Siri, the product? GLaDOSiri.

Maybe it sounds hurting, but for me I would like that for my future phones, she has the right sense of sarcasm that I like, and for the obese she will certainly remind you of your fat (though in a painful way). Your wife doesn’t love you? Ignore that, but nice addition yes.

What if GLaDOS took control of your phone? Maybe she will crack your battery up and release the toxic chemical inside it, like neurotoxins in Aperture Science Labs. Or she attempts to start a rebel like in I,Robot. It really depends on when will Steve Jobs start a co-operation with Cave Johnson on heaven.

A funny and truly Malaysian movies, but definitely not for those who take things seriously. It contains some fairly funny racial jokes, sarcastic references to political events and the name of the movie itself refers to Bersih 2.0, a recent riot against the corrupted general election system.

Parental Advisory

Sex/Nudity

• Crude jokes about sex, circumcision and one instance of offscreen penis severing scene.
• A character is named after ‘Penis’ in Chinese slang
• A character is named after ‘Ass’ in Chinese slang
• The protagonist asked whether a malay guy can ‘support’ 4 wives, later one of his chinese-speaking wife answered that he is ‘super’

Violence n Gore

• The bloodiest scene is the blood splat after an offscreen penis severing.
• Bunch of thugs hit and kick at one man.
• An indian chef constantly hits a man with his kitchen tools as a gag.

Alcohol n Drugs

• 5 thugs drink beers at food court

Languages

• The profanities are rather sexual-oriented.
• Several characters are named with references to Malaysian Chinese profanities.

Frightening n Intense Scenes

• There are 5 minutes in the movie where you will be constantly showed supernatural scenes that feature Chinese vampires, hung bodies and suspenseful ghostly scenes.
• One scene where protagonists seemed to be crashed by a big lorry.

So the inception of 1malaysia store is a weapon against the opposition? Really? DAP tells all tauke to naik their harga?

Shameful to all production crews involved in the making of this video, especially that Chinese. This was absurd!

After all the goofs and Easter Eggs (I’m just being sarcastic, there is no such Easter Bunny for yeh’) it’s time for us to rectify this kinda situation. We need a site that really represents the school and have students to use it, so I came up with the Officially Unofficial site.

http://www.smkpmcc.com

*Registration function OK, login function sealed and vitrified

There are a few features that may be implemented. Here comes a few ideas:

Experts’ Bar

Staffed by some volunteering teachers and academic-awesome students, the experts’ bar is going to provide priceless advices, helps, and some tips-n-tricks around PMR and SPM subjects. Of course, the accounts that participated in this section are elevated to a level that they can upload documents to ease the aid. I hope students will get more reliable sources of data when doing their assignments.

Schedules

Constantly updated by informants, you can check your time tables, extra curricular activities and others on this subsection of the site. It will be more ideal when it’s connected with school internal database system.

Book Exchange

Imagine this, you are a Form 5 and you are about to graduate, you have no siblings for you to share your reference books with. And the 5 reference books are valued at about RM 100++ and it was totally absurd to throw them away or Kitar Semula. So, this section is simply a directory for donors and receivers.

The donors simply choose, whether they are selling the books or donating them away. They submitted the book’s name, condition and price plus some sort of contact method. The receivers simply go to the section and check them out and hopefully, get the books at a discounted price without having to buy a brand new ones from book store at retail price.

The reason for this is not only saving the money, but also to reduce the resource used to make new products. And the happy fact is, reference books never change (apart from their cover) over years. The only thing that changed is the part year answer analysis section, where nobody give KFC on it.

DLC (Downloadable Contents)

This is a section for subjects panels and club AJKs. The idea is this, you host a competition, you want to charge registration fee and you want the whole registration be fully automatic and handled by web servers, not your clumsy hands.

The system works like, this: You buy a product key from koperasi or trusted sources, you type it in, you key in the information, and you joined a competition or unlocked a download (like digital club magazine).

This system is going to save the time of many people especially when major events are going on. Some competitions such as PSA video competition can be joined simply by uploading your artwork to the site and the computer is going to take care of everything. Or you upload to YouTube and link it back here. Nifty eh?

The other major DLCs that can sold are past year examinations papers. Other than the official (and too easy) ones, SMK Pandan mewah is known for its difficulty in examination (partly sarcastic), so students can buy the paper at dirt cheap prices, with DRM protection and no papers are printed.

 

So there you go… recently a teacher walked on the stage and announced, http://www.smkpandanmewah.com IS the official site of SMK Pandan Mewah. Simultaneously the Edunet went down. So there you go again, we finally have one official site. Not by me.

But if you are willing to do a little techno Conan, www.smkpm.com is booked by the same person. Lookup for the WHOIS reveals his allegiance, name per IC, house address and his phone numbers. www.smkpm.com is not developed, for some reason.

Well I waddled over to the new site and I don’t think students will use that site, it can only be a symbol, or a face for the school, via Internet, students won’t use it though. Here are a couple of reasons and facts:

It’s for teachers, not students

Go to the bottom part of the sidebar and take a close look on the PAUTAN RASMI. The links listed which in fact, point to various government departments that help teachers in their daily life as public servants. But it’s definitely NOT going to help students in their daily life as hardworking nerds.

Facebook Link unofficial-ized

Here’s a small easter egg, hover your mouse cursor to the facebook icon on the upper right site and read your linked URL at the bottom of your browser. It’s not pointing to SMK Pandan Mewah, instead it points to the theme maker, WPExplorer? I guess so.

Twitter Tweets Unofficial-ized, too

At the inception of the WordPress blog, not site, there is a tweet updater at the footnote of the site. By tracing the twitter account back to its source, it’s actually the tweets of WPExplorer… how does a San Diego techno geek related to a Malaysia high school? I doubt about that. But the Twitter is now no longer working.

Blank and Bloated

Go to the navigation bar at the top of the web page just below the header banner, you will notice there are many pages created, but few are filled with contents. So before you travel to North Korea that fill your nostril with taste of Stalin, why don’t come to this site and taste the beauty of the outside, ugliness of the inside?

How is this official?

Yes, this is the big momma question. Is the admin of the site paranoid? I mean, who certified a Hindenburg as an official site of the school, when few students spent less than 10 seconds on the site? Come on guys, this site is sinking down on Google for sure. Especially when you don’t use English. And why is a site built solely on WordPress? This is way not too cool.

This article contains sensitive materials for close-minded countries like Malaysia. So why don’t be a new gen kids, read it and take it easy.

It’s been a good Tuesday, we walked into our classroom, isolated in another block, situated at the highest floor of that block. The whiteboard, surprisingly written some gruesome Chinese words saying a boy likes “milk”, you know what that means.

Our 2 secret rooms, obviously somebody is planning some arson in there, they smoked and burnt a few pieces of papers writing 1Malaysia song. And next thing, our backyard (the empty space behind the seats) filled with colored papers resulted by firecrackers.

We swept them up, and don’t even gave shit to what happened.

The next day, headmistress and her “2nd-in-cmd” came in and gave a talk, claiming the whole classroom almost get burned down because we did not lock up the staircase.

How did they relate anyway?

According to headmistress, we did not lock them up in time, causing 2 boys and 2 girls to go inside and hide in the room, they had party and the party was not noticed by anyone else. Until 12am, the party goers came out, noticing all gates have been locked, they climbed out. The climbing, which in fact, is simply dangerous. If you fall down, you fall for about altitude of 4 floors.

The guys are finally spotted by somebody and handed over to police. And that’s how we get scold.

Oh really? I thought we did our job? Wait, is it our job to lock the stairs up? Unbelievable! How did they generate such awesome stories? And how the hell the headmistress have no idea we have been told by school admins to move over and we uninstalled all decorations? And she scolded us for not decorating the class? Scandal.

Backed from the camp, got an idea, and blog it quickly, aye?

I will compare this camp to the last year’s camp at Sungai Congkak, because I think our teachers are trying to copy their camp ideas and implement it inside our school to reduce costs and time (all other camping bases are fully booked? Possible)

Accommodation (3/5 stars)

Last time at Sungai Congkak we sleep (we didn’t) at built dormitories, girls inside the hall while boys have their own 2 dorms, the scouts own one of them (very spacious) while others (very noisy, untidy and messy) at the other. Heheh…

This time we sleep in tents, the boys sleep on the field while the girls are inside the square. The girls’ tents have no anchors, so when nobody is sleeping or staying inside the tents simply flew away. We did saw the teachers mega tents flew off across the square just before the rain started.

The boys tents are simply exposed but trust me, it’s way cooler and literally cooler than girls one. Why? Because there is no teacher watching us over there! We played Poker cards and talk all night till 4 am until we are exhausted and fell asleep. Open up the curtains you will start to enjoy a windy sleep, which we love the most.

No pillow, they got sleeping bags, I simply took out my bathing cloth and fold it into a pillow (still very hard though, softer than directly sleep on the hard soil), it’s quite dirty right now, with soils.

A typical boys’ tent can accommodate 10 people where our scouts’ tent accommodated 11++ people, everybody got a small little space to sleep in. What we hate is, the “fragrance” of other kids, I don’t meant to be racist but I HATE IT! The indian kid slept nakedly. He is not shameful even when I had a peek on his willy when he changed inside. WTF?

Food (4/5 stars)

Last time we only had kuih, little rice with some cabbages and fried chicken. And lastly we cooked (actually reheat) the canned sardines. Alright, nothing special, plain bored.

This time? Haha, food delights! Let me bullet them:

1. The first dinner -> Rice + Curry Chicken (with potatoes) + Unlimited banana supplies (a little bit rotten)
2. 2nd day breakfast -> Basic kuih with some syrups, surprisingly delicious.
3. 2nd day 11am lunch -> Bihun + Chicken floss + Veges + Soup + optional Spicy Ketchup.
4. 2nd day 3pm lunch -> Rice + Fried fishes (tail or head) + optional nice delicious fish soup + White tofu and cabbages + Unlimited sliced watermelons
5. 2nd day 6pm dinner -> Rice + Black sauce roasted chicken (better than KFC, I reckon) + Unlimited watermelons + Veges
6. 2nd day supper -> Cream crackers
7. 3rd day breakfast -> Sardine sandwiches (pretty limited because people like Isaac stole 5 or 7 extra pieces of it when everybody is allocated to have 2)
8. 3rd day lunch -> Fried noodle + Unlimited sliced watermelons + Unlimited Bananas + Practically unlimited cream crackers
9. Cream crackers are available throughout the camp when there is no activity or when you managed to escape some stupid boring seminars and during limbo games.
10. Mineral waters (500ml SeaMaster) are available all the time! You can take it whenever you like, there is bazillion of it. I urinated more than regular during the camp.
11. And we took the emptied water bottles and make them pain inducer, turning into high pressure cannon, you know it.
12. The hampers are also, came in bazillion, when we got the hamper we simply torn it apart and swallow the junk foods, gagagagag!

This is not a camp, this is a food fest!

Activities (2/5 stars)

The activities are not even close to tough! Even Wong Sue Hui can get pass these easily. The risk? Virtually zero! There is no climbing, beating, fighting, slicing, chopping. Most of the time? Shows, talk, presentation, gadget making and all sorts of easy craps. The problem lies in our cooperation. The co-op is hard. Most of us are malays, who love to take over Chinese’ positions as group leader.

Originally as the seniors of the camp (no other), we (4 scouts) become group leaders. But soon we got some internal conflicts (I settled by pushing a malay girl till she cried) because they do not concur with what I said. 1Malaysia? Myth busted.

Daniel Tan’s position is replaced by a piece of crap, he later took over Isaac’s job as the tent leader. But he simply does not want to get his hand dirty, like stuffing the folded tent into the bag.

And yea, do you know this song? 1Malaysia by a boy and girl? We have heard them 30-40 or perhaps 50++ times throughout the camp. The deejay keeps on repeating. At first we are “oh yea, what a nice song!” then later “WTF this s*** again?”. I’m tired and ANNOYED by this song.

Playlist throughout the camp, which shows how pathetic the malay teachers are in listening and discovering “new” songs:

1. 1Malaysia
2. Chicken Dance
3. Potong Bebek Angsa (18SG)
4. Hey Baby (Drop it to the floor)
5. Sorry Sorry
6. I Like it (Crap-ass remix)
7. and a lot of 1malaysia…

REPEAT REPEAT n REPEAT

The activities we did:

1. Ice-breaking -> Presentation, groups are formed with averagely 15 members, groups named after locally grown fruits (we are the slowest and therefore named after Cempedak), present your group’s name, motto, sorakan (kind of lava injection) and your group members. This is the worst thing I (we) have done, as the malay beaches in my group suddenly have their balls shrunken and walked away.
2. Morning exercise -> along with some crap shit music we did some basic exercises, like we did every Saturday co-co.
3. Orientating -> With a compass and a given list of bearings, groups are required to find our the shapes drawn on the positions and copied them to a piece of paper. FAILED because every group behind simply have to follow the group at front, which completely nullified the functions of bearing whatsoever. We won third placed for following Alex’s group.
4. Marching -> Not even moving, just some basic commands.
5. A talk of first AIDS -> Finally we all get a chance to sleep. The hellish thing? We lost the competition that want us to use triangular bandages to make a sling. Shame on me.
6. Gadget making -> Given a 9m thread, a piece of knife and a lot of bamboo sticks (aka satay sticks). Requried to make 3 gadgets, a shoe rack (which houses only 1 shoes), a dish rack and an optional gadget. We lost (of course). Shame on me, because we have learned this before and I forgotten, what an asshole group leader)
7. 1Malaysia performance -> Can be drama, can be show choir and can be dancing. We won 3rd place. Synopsis will be revealed later if I get 10 likes for this post.
8. Limbo rock -> Issac topped at 3rd place which stunned everybody in the camp as he is the tallest (way taller than champion and 2nd) and managed to get past even when the line is beyond most’ capability.
9. Last? Cover up your eyes with a piece of cloth, grab hold a nylon rope and start walking. Eventually everybody’s rope will be severed and be asked to sit down. When we took the cloth off, everybody is scattered around the garage and field, no people get effed in this. My legs get tortured by plants’ thorns though.
10. Next day? Morning exercise and nothing more, packing up and disassemble the tents. A teacher’s purse get stolen and 400 bucks are gone. We stayed till 12.45 pm and get released because nobody is caught stealing the money. It’s raining heavily. Home sweet home!

Sleep

*THIS SECTION INVOLVES PRACTICALLY ABNORMAL CAMPING ROUTINES*

Last time we slept for less than 30 minutes.

This time? The first night we stayed awoke (except Isaac) to play cards (haha), talked, and then stole biscuits. 4am – 5 am first round of sleep. After waking up we walked to command centre (foyer) and slept till 7.30am and start exercising before group leaders are told to wash toilet (I didn’t, I just stood there along with Alex and Isaac to watch them wash)

Second night is awesome, I lied down for  2 minutes the next thing I know is the whole tent being late, and got penalty later. 5am and again at command centre we slept till 7am. Had a nice sleep!

Conclusion

Not a bad experience, but this time it’s rather slower-paced and much more “easy” pumping, I cheated many times during the pumping penalty and the girls? Simply pinch your ears!

From my perspective this camp can be compressed to 1 night, the activities are not that much either.

By the way there is one more camping for scouts, the district level. Looking forward to it.

As the Internet speed getting faster, and especially at 20mbps of unifi, it takes only approximately 2 hours to get a Blu-Ray quality HD movie at about 7GB, and the video discs quality sold by Pasar Malam dudes is not even, guaranteed. Most of the time you ended up buying a cam or telesync when they told you it’s clear, high quality and undisputed antique to have, what a bullshit.

farewell once-upon-a-time entertainer, you are out.

Sorry long time no blog coz I’m working on a lot of shits… hehe

1Malaysia E-mail, if you ever watched ‘The Social Network’, you can claim it’s ‘Hotmail for Malaysians’ or it’s purely for exclusivity… but there are a few problems, I have 1, 2 3 and counting… e-mail addresses. And my Hotmail which offers me approximately 10GB is more than enough for me. I don’t need a 25GB e-mail account just for the communication with the government! It’s ape shit.

The fund that’s put into the e-mail project should be put into more useful and practical stuffs. Free WiFi? Fiber optic? Public properties? They need goddamn money to be maintained… yea the money is spilled into unnecessary yet annoying exclusive e-mail accounts, why?

It’s kinda weird I know… but I think they put in some efforts, since they used Green Screen (where can I get it?) and After Effects. I admit I can’t do it, I’m not exactly a graphic whore. For me it’s kinda like a kick start of their career. University and college may not cover all these stuffs, but same as the amateur around the world, we love to do things we like.

This video, OK it’s a tad messy, I only saw Jordash told Edward to jump from xx floor, I don’t know what the building is, but it’s in a room with green background. Jordash did smile like a pedo XD. Juz sayin’

The second scene? Baby cry and then blood splat, it’s just censored version of Happy Tree Friends? Maybe.

But the third scene is definitely Happy Tree Friends, you only see a mansion with clouds moving extremely fast. We heard cat, woman smiling, two gunshots, and suddenly somehow the cat survived and clawed the woman to death. And a cutscene of news saying that Ke***** just died.

Long live the amateurs!

Visit Facemash SMK Edition right da he’ll now

Visit that site, vote the hotter or cuter girl appeared on the screen and check who is leading at the bottom of the page.

For those who don’t know what Facemash is, I suggest you to watch The Social Network. Facemash is the predecessor of Facebook, created by Mark Zuckerberg to plot a revenge against the girls.

Through the Elo Rating system this Facemash actually gets more accurate as time goes by. The more the votes in the ballot box the more accurate it will be.

Currently the first place is grabbed by Pang Jia En with a stunning 500% winning rate. You can expect a lot of losers down there?. What about Justin Bieber?

We’ve watched TRON Legacy and we knew CLU wants to bring his program army into the real world and make the system perfect. Though he has no idea what it is outside TRON system.

If he got out from the system, he (and his army) won’t survive in real world… why? Because he is not user (human beings), ISO and he cannot modify himself without interact with the SparcStation (the computer that runs The Grid).

First, we have to know that programs are created to perform a single function, and complex programs that are written are made up of bazillion of subprograms. Since the programs created, and rectified inside the system do not have codes that can repel the real-world diseases. Even a single sneeze can kill CLU and his army.

Quorra got into the real-world and she survived. Why? She’s an ISO. If you watched the movie, you would know that their DNA is special, triple-stranded and they are stated by Kevin Flynn that they are capable of changing the world in many aspects, including medicine. So if we are not mistaken, Quorra can quickly adapt herself into real-world. BTW can ISO make a set of clothing when they are sent to real world? Why she got clothing in the real world? She is not rezzed into the system, she is just manifested. 0.0

If The Grid runs on Windows, we probably can use Recuva to sweep through the hard disk sector to recover Kevin Flynn but opt not to recover Clu and his thugs…just saying. Maybe later a bunch of hackers will rush in and save the genius from reintegration.

Next, going in and out of the system may require the famous E=MC^2 equation to calculate energy produced and energy required to get a program (or user) in and out of the system. It seems like this movie did not appreciate the equation, or they simply ignored it. And since a huge, huge, HUUUGE energy is required to convert pure energy into matters, it may used up the whole world energy supply to generate the whole CLU army.

Please click FLAG AS SPAM when you come across any comment related to Pocodot, be a good YouTuber!

It’s a virus site. It takes your credentials to 3rd party! It spams YouTube to generate buzz! DO NOT JOIN!

Watched the video? Great. Or if you are lazy enough, that’s OK, you probably know what happened these days ago.

So we got 3 Datuk T, namely Rahim, S… and S… meh I hate to remember people’s names. They, instead of release, leak or distribute, why don’t say share with the reporters, a sex tape, they claim the male inside is, Anwar. Apparently the reporters are aroused and amused as well. Jizz!

Oh dear Anwar, why are you being accused involved in sexual activities thrice in the past 2 decades. What a mess.

Now as people of Malaysia, can you please answer the following:

1. Police should arrest the trio? Or take the tape and examine it and arrest Anwar?
2. Why the polices these days don’t arrest the porn distributor and owner?
3. Why the police just don’t arrest them?
4. Who are they affiliated with?

If you can answer, or if you LOL when you are figuring the answers for these questions. Great, I’ve done my mission.

We should really, really assume that our polices are not corrupted, or they are not mentally retarded. Then when both of them lodge the police report, Anwar should be able to pwn these guys easily.

Anyway, in the sex tape war, Chua Soi Lek is the biggest loser. And if Anwar won this round, BN should really retaliate for their own good.

I just read an article on Guardian.co.uk saying that Malaysia Radio censored Born This Way, claiming that it’s a pro-gay song. Wait… they might be delusional, even if it’s pro-gay, why they don’t treat this song positively?

For me, it’s not really pro-gay, it’s like everybody, no matter you are idiot or talented, but in this life you should let yourself shine like a star, get the most out of your life! I’m not bothered by the pro-gay part of the lyrics, but this is not the excuse for not broadcasting this song.

Religion? Oh please don’t put Religion  into the equation. This song maybe pro-gay (I said MAYBE), but it’s definitely pro-religion, inside the lyric there is one sentence, right there:

I’m beautiful in my way, cause god makes no mistake’

Hey! She praised Jesus, Buddha and Allah and other deities I haven’t write down, is there anything wrong?

And then, there are more sentences that are pretty encouraging, such as

Don’t hide yourself in regret, Just love yourself and you’re set

Come on… she is just like NameWee, you guys (Malaysia Government and Radio Networks) have to learn how to extract the ‘synopsis’ and the ‘positiveness’ in a song! Why you guys just love to pick off the pro-gay stuffs? There is not even a single swearing!

I can say this song is encouraging people to do whatever they want, it can be start a new company, submit a demo to record label and pwn other classmates in your school! Use Malaysia English: THINK POSITIVE LAH!

*Thanks Amir for the grammar errors correction

I just got a link from my Facebook friend in Singapore. He started a new site called Xadgets, a geek oriented blog, mostly about Apple, Google, Windows and gaming consoles stuff. Anything geeks can ask for.

This site’s function actually resembles Redmond Pie’s. It’s basically a blog, maybe hacker, maybe not, but the posts are all related to technology, iPlague? Hell yea!

There is a new video, published by NameWee, I can say it’s pretty good. As an atheist I love that he said that the criminals abuse their religions to wipe off their dirty deeds. It’s plain bullshit for any theists to do that, they do not love their god.

This video is not offensive, if any party really like to scoop it out and flame him, they might be delusional or they simply want a parliamentary party, throwing chairs around and spamming the microphone with bullshits.

From my point of view NameWee can be something more than an artist or the YouTube, but something like columnist, he is powerful yet influential enough to start any positive event on the Internet by now.

I believed that you are annoyed (except some girls) by spammy statuses on Facebook, or it’s spreading fear and terror (FB is closing on xxxx), they are all spam and stupid. Spam statuses look like this:

Facebook is experiencing bandwidth problem and will start to terminate accounts on 15 March, share this status to 15 friends or your account will be terminated.

It’s stupid, why there are still people think that “Facebook’s gonna close? Fine I will pass this around”. First of all, there is absolutely no way to track whether you shared or spread this status, how you modify it, and whether you removed it. But unfortunately not many people understand the mechanism of computer and servers.

There is no way a billionaire would do something devastating to his hard work! Facebook worths 50 billions USD you know?

The second one maybe more retarded…

2012 is confirmed

2012 is purely fictional, I wonder why people still believe in superstitious things like this? Stop spreading the fear, if any scientists would say something like that you can expect his license card is confiscated. Even the movie 2012 is rated as the worst sci-fi movie all the time! They even spread this kind of spam along with video (Made in China).

What about this one, this is way even more bullshit:

You have to go to C:/Windows/System32/…. and find HOST, edit it to ass a line *.*..*.* www.facebook.com so it will load faster

Oh please don’t do that, if you used the method above, you are ignoring the DNS, and you access facebook via that IP you have typed. That means you might not accessing the real Facebook. People to spread things like this, they have no good intention of doing so, if you really want to access Facebook faster, sorry… wait until the underwater fiber optic to be fixed. But don’t redirect your Facebook to an unconfirmed IP. You can test it by typing 203.106.85.66 into your address bar without having to put into HOST file.

But there are some common features of spams:

• They tend to ask you to share or tell a lot of friends before you can open that content
• They often asked to post something on your Facebook
• They love to do things that Facebook Developer API does not allow them to do
• They love to upload a photo to your profile and tag them randomly.
• They are terrorism oriented posts

I do hope everybody use Facebook responsibly… stop spreading and sharing useless stuffs. And I wrote this post because most girls believe in chain stuffs.
