dsa expo 2004


i wasn’t doing anything on sunday, so i followed my dad to his exhibition booth at dsa expo 2004 (defence services asia). my dad need some help designing and decorating his booth. the security was tight, it’s like we were entering an army base. even to get the security pass, i had to wait about 20 minutes. but nevermind that. the things they exhibit there was awesome. tanks, artilery, airplane, helicopters, guns…man, it’s like a major arms sale. the only thing that suck is the food price. mahal sangat. i was interested on the glock booth. the weapons they show are nice. i’m thinking of taking a firearms licence and buy myself a glock. this things are cool. they can even shoot underwater. my dad’s company produce rubber material for atm’s tank (adnan) and uniforms for the army. after spending about 3 hours designing (the part where i had to put together a mannequin were fun), my dad and i wander around the place looking at these awesome army things like tanks and stuff. funny thing is, i can’t find the scomi booth, where i can took some pictures of the uranium shells or nuclear warhead…:mrgreen:

petronas skybridge


i just woke up from my lucid dream when my phone rang. the phone kinda saves my day because i have a lecture in 30 minutes. it was boss. he asked me if i wanted to go to the petronas skybridge. hell yeah i want to go. thanks a bunch dude. since the bridge opened to visitor, i dreamt of going there. but because the lack of time, i had to postphone it. since this is the first time, jakun habis lah. habis sound satu family. we arrived there at about 3:40pm. and i though we were late (the ticket is on 4pm and we were suppose to be there 30 minutes early). armed with my video camera, i was ready to take a bulk load of pictures of the bridge. luckily i brought my small battery for the video camera as i forgot to charge the main battery. damn. security in petronas tower was tight as usual. the first time i went to petronas towers when i followed my dad to his meetings there. after waiting about 20 minutes on the video room, we were taken up the bridge by a service elevator. upon arriving up there, man…the view are beautiful. but up there, theres nothing to do except watching the view. i heard one visitor say “just watch ah?”. ahehehe…after wandering about and taking photos for about 10 minutes, we went down to the skybridge interactive shop. not much there just a simulation of tesla coil. cool. anyway, a story best described if they have pictures.

a super scam

lecturer: we will finish one chapter in one day and have a quiz in the next day, so our silibus will be finished before the finals.
me: one chapter one day and a quiz??? are you fucking kidding me?
lecturer: no, i am not fucking kidding you!

well, err, the conversation was not like that, but i think you got the idea. one chapter one day plus a quiz in the next day, wow, that’ll burst my brain out. although many thought it was a good idea because it will always keep us ready, i think, it kinda harsh on me. iyelah, being on a long holiday and pampered myself with sleeping alot and wake up when i damn well please, this kinda hard to follow. maybe i’ll manage to get into it but not immediately.

have i told you this? err, no i think i haven’t. well last week i got a letter from a company named el gordo sweepstake lottery company. located in madrid, spain. shit! from spain damnit. my name, my address were all spelt right. the contents of the letter is…are you ready? i have just won a half million us dollar. not rm, but US DOLLAR!!! the actual amount is US$ 615,810.00. when converted to rm, i now are a millionaire. i have my share of ‘skim cepat kaya’ letters or other scam send to me by e-mail, snailmail, telephone but this one is the uber scam. before this, all letters originated from malaysia, but this time from spain. well, if this letter was true, being a millionaire, i want to buy something ‘precious’. he he he….but if only…

a server? why not?

er, for a time being, i have relocated my photo gallery to another hosting. it has an enormous space, so i only worry about the server going down. i can now look forward to put high resolution pictures on my album. the album can be reached here. i’ve been busy lately. with my college has opened and doing a favour for a friend. the favour was setup their server from scratch. my friend leased a server every month to startup their own irc network. the server runs on pentium 4 with 512mb ram and a freebsd operating system. so, for the last 5 days i’ve been handling and tweaking the server to their needs. the difficult part is to setup a webserver. installing a gcc compiler, shells and other thing was easy to do, but webserver dude, the apache, php, mysql…wow. lucky ustaz was around in yahoo messenger. so i can refer to him. finally i managed to install the webserver after some error. i’m proud of that. before this i asked ustaz to do it for me. the irc network can be reached at irc.malaynet.org and the website can be reached at www.malaynet.org.

photo gallery updated

i have many interesting pictures that i like to share with my visitors, but the problem is i don’t have a sufficient space at my webhosting. probably i’ll buy a new one next month. or if anyone would like to buy one for me. anyway, here are some pictures i took on election day. all photos taken with panasonic mv-gs1 dv video camera.

politics definition

POLITICS – DEFINED

Son: Dad, I have to do a special report for school. Can I ask you a question?
Dad: Sure, son. What’s the question?
Son: What’s POLITICS?
Dad: Well son, let’s take our home as an example: I make all the inal decisions on important matters. So let’s call me MANAGEMENT. Your mother spends most of the money, so let’s call her the GOVERNMENT. We take care of you and your needs. So, let’s call you the PEOPLE. We shall call our maid Clara, the WORKERS. And we call your baby brother, the FUTURE. Do you understand what POLITICS means now?
Son: I’m really not so sure dad. I’ll have to think about it.

That night, awaken by his baby brother’s crying, the boy went to see what was wrong. Discovering the baby had seriously soiled his diaper, the boy went to his parent’s room and found his mother sound asleep. Not wanting to disturb his mother, he then went to the maid’s room. He peeked through the keyhole, and saw his father in bed with the maid. The boy’s knocking went unanswered by his father and the maid. So, he finally returned to his room and went back to sleep. The next morning at the breakfast table:

Son: Dad, I now think I understand POLITICS.
Dad: That’s great son! Please explain to me in your own words.
Son: Well dad! While MANAGEMENT is screwing the WORKERS, the GOVERNMENT is sound asleep. The PEOPLE are being ignored and the FUTURE is full of shit!

fatamorgana

life is just like a ferris wheel. sometimes we go up and sometimes down

the holiday is almost at the end. the fun time is now officially over. now it’s back to waking up early in the morning, go to class and listen to the lecturer. no freetime (not like i’m doing anything on my freetime anyway. i sleep almost all day). my gpa last semester was ok. it’s not hard to maintain it but i have to be positive all the time and of course, rajin to go to the class lah. with the starting of this new semester, i felt like messed up, like always. i had these problem with some friends and it suck. even my parents don’t trust me anymore. not like i’m blaming them. because sometimes it only took one people to to cause it and to blame it on. and that would be me. lately i started to create this sentences: “kawan hanyalah sebuah fatamorgana” (friend is just an illusion) just because i had this problem with a friend. everything i do will alter the course of the future and all the people surrounding me. every action has it reaction. when everything has already happened, we can only sit back, analyze and think. in the end, it’s the what if that hurts the most. what if things gone a little different. if only…

nutshell.rants is now on wap!

hurrah hurrah!…finally this website can be viewed on wap/gprs enabled handphone. i don’t know much about wap language actually, but after taking this short wap tutorial and with some help from the founder of jiwang.org, i finally get to launch my website on wap. visitors get to read my blog, see some pictures, download wallpaper and polyphonic ringtones. other features such as guestbook, e-mail and other phone compability will be added soon. so, don’t wait and surf to wap.azfar.my on your handphone.

i’ve been blog hopping lately. looking for oklah website design with nice content and ideas. most of the funky urinal. ale, tempat kencing berdiri tu lahh... blog i went to have shout/guestbook system mostly from tagboard. and actually kesian la jugak when i see that most of the comment user gave them is filled with hatred, mencarut, kutuk and stuff. the best thing is, ignore and delete the entry. there are probably some mama’s boy/girl still living with their parents and have nothing to do. anyway, internet is known for medium to slandering other people anonymously. today is my first time casting a vote. penat la jugak. i had to line up at almost 2 hours. but 2 hours is okay comparing to 4 hours standing when i joined the police cadet at school. the results of the election has came in and all favour goes to bn. that’s great…i think. anyway, i’m thinking of installing an urinal on my toilet. i am the only son in my family so, sometimes it’s hard after peeing, i had to put down the toilet lid. sometimes i forget. maybe having an urinal solves this problem…maybe…i think. i want to get one like this. quite cute.

super

it’s been a while since i post. i work in front of a computer yet i don’t have any time to write on my blog. but, nevermind that. while surfing for some information, i came across this website that have this quote:

“Profanity is the inevitable linguistic crutch of the inarticulate motherfucker.”
-Bruce Sherrod

yeah dude, this quote is nice. i’ve been using this quote on my msn messenger till today. many people commented on it though. i’ve noted that all tv stations has begin promoting for general election. i’m excited. this is my first election. on all commercial about election, the one i think is lame and annoy me is on ntv7, the one where people say the wrong line and make a x with their hands. seriously, lame. they could just use many other different concept. i don’t know about others opinion, but i still think it’s lame…ha ha. nowdays i’m eating too much chicken. that’s because my sisters has been working part time at kenny rogers and she brought back home stuffs like chicken (of course), macaroni and cheese, muffins and others. oh, and not to forget. while surfing for information, i came about this website created by edouard levi, called safe for work porn. awesome dude!

election day is coming

i forgot to post about this earlier. probably due to sleeping a lot. my housing area organized a family day last week. specificly for the houses on 14th road. it was great actually, although i came about 30 minutes late. got to know the people on my neighbourhood better. plus, i don’t know there were many hot chicks in my neighbourhood. aheh. got to show my face more often. election day is coming. so was poster war. everywhere i got to see these posters. man. because i have turned 21 last year, i got to vote for the first time this year. probably voting for a new government is just the same as when i were voting for prefects on my school days. pangkah, pangkah and pangkah. anyway, have you registered as a voter yet?

i hate spyware

on my last post, i’ve been rambling about junk program or better be called spyware and adware infecting my desktop computer. i’ve done deleting the program. i think i got them all but actually they are still in my computer. hiding and lurking beneath the system folder. i realize this when there are something wrong with my internet explorer. some page takes long time to load. fed up with this mess, i tried searching for a powerful adware / spyware remover. i came across these fuckin’ a great program.

  • HijackThis
  • SpyBot – S & D
  • Maxion SpyKiller
  • Privacy Eraser
  • Registry Mechanic
  • they can be found at http://www.spywareinfo.com (for HijackThis), http://www.safer-networking.org (for SpyBot-S&D) and http://www.download.com. these program works by scanning all possible location in our computer searching for threat based on their spyware / adware database. location such as the hard drive (duhh…:roll:), registry and memory. i personally like to use HijackThis, Registry Mechanic & SpyBot-S&D. HijackThis scans your internet explorer, internet connection and startup config for spyware / adware. when i use this program, i saw the spyware / adware are still on my computer, not been removed succesfully on my last attempt. they even control my internet connection, network settings and internet explorer. shit. Registry Mechanic simply repair your registry and remove all unnecessary entry to make your system more stable and load fast. as for SpyBot-S&D, it scans the hard drive, regisry and memory for any spyware / adware and fix or delete them for good of mankind. i seriously recommend this programs if you don’t like spyware/adware or being watched / controlled by a hidden software that collects information about you. fight against spyware / adware for our privacy and safety. in the meantime, see this website: http://www.againsttcpa.com.

    a miracle

    wiungg…weengg…klepap! another mosquito getting slapped by me. i don’t know where they came from. probably from my water fountain as i forgot to put the ‘ubat jentik-jentik’. my biological clock are almost correct. now i sleep at night and awake at day. but the awake part is quite early. at 5:15am every morning. have to tweak it up a little bit. the pepsi twist double shot i drank today, suck. taste more like the normal pepsi twist. anywhuu, while minding my own business, my mum got a called from a stranger claiming he has my mum’s purse and wanted to meet her to return the purse back. thinking it is a joke, my mum laughed and told the guy, sure she will met him. then, when my mum and i search for her purse, it was really missing. the guy told us that he found the purse lying at the road on the way to uia. that was strangely odd. last person who use the car is my sister who went to uia to pick up her stuff and in the early morning, my mum forgot to take out her purse from the car after sending my older sister to work. it was a miracle. there are still honest people in this world. this case maybe a 1/1000th. mostly people ignore what they saw on the road, and if they found a purse, probably they took the contents. later we met the guy who found the purse and thank him. he was driving a trailer on the way to terengganu. man, if he got a time, i surely would like to buy him a dinner or belanja him teh tarik.
