since i made a decision to move, i get many reaction from people. some were shocked, some were okay with it and some just don’t give a shit. wait, most people don’t give a shit by the way and that’s cool. i have this friend though. he kinda upset. don’t reply my messages and won’t talk to me. isn’t that a little girly? damn dude, come on. enough with this emotional crap. no queer stuff here okay. just get over it.

somehow i forgot to bitch about this. well, maybe it’s the old thing. yeah, i watched the movie batman begins. so far? the movie is great. it can could match the original batman movie which michael keaton stars. but the batman movie kinda go downhill with the appearance of robin and batgirl for that matter. that…err…suck. it’s funny that ducard/ra’s al ghul (played by liam neeson) talk to bruce wayne something that related to the dark side of the force (hint: star wars) and liam neeson was once a jedi master qui-gon jinn in the movie star wars (shit, i am a geek). the part i like is at the end of the movie where lieutenant jim gordon (before he became a commisioner) call batman with a flood light and gave him joker’s “business card”. just right for the next movie (original batman). awesome.

The beloved notebook computer
While i’m chillin at Penang, browsing the net looking at some porn, I felt something wrong with the notebook. It gets overheated. Click and click and suddenly it shuts down itself. This is a sign that my heatsink fan finally fucked up. Thanks for the fucking idiot at the fucking shop at Low Yat plaza who fix my notebook. I want to kick their arse later. I check out the NEC website for more information on spare parts. After calling them, I got the address to the Penang service centre.
The notebook is in my bag (nice bag huh?)
I took off from my home at 10:10am. I want to be there before lunch so the NEC tech people is still there, not eating, not sleeping and still full of energy. After packing the notebook in my bag, i put on my t-shirt, lock the door and walk to the elevator. By the way ah, if you like the design of notebook bag i’m using, want to buy it, contact me. I’ll give you a special price.
Just go already
I live at 8th floor. Which is cool by the way. It has a nice view. Sometimes I try to peek at other house beside my house but I can’t see a thing. Maybe they put the shades on. There’s no pretty chicks living at the 8th floor. It’s sad. I had to scout other floor after this.
The lift is too slow
This apartment have two lifts one is for the odd number floor and the other is for the even number floor. The most used elevator is the even number. Maybe tenants in the odd number floor like to use the stairs. It would be pretty fucked up i the elevator is damaged or something. Oh, during the tsunami disaster, people use the elevator to get downstairs.
Clean car
There’s no reserved parking for the tenants. It is first come first serve basis. I like to park at the lamp posts. Ahh…luckily dad fill up the petrol last night and gave me his touch and go card. Easier for me.
Gentlemen, start your engine
My house is about 10 minutes journey to the Penang bridge. It’s also near the Jelutong Expressway. Very convenient. While driving on the Penang bridge, there this one car who cut me off 45 degrees without giving a signal. Damn it. Well, a typical Penang driver. So, to congratulate him, I gave him some lovin’, my style.
The one finger salute
I drove 70km/h and sometimes 90km/h (the federal speed limit). The police is everywhere. I had enough of this traffic summons. The costs can reach up to RM300. Sometimes they (police) like to hide behind the bushes with their speed sensor laser gun. Maybe I should gave them the one finger salute too if i found them.
The Penang bridge
The articulate service support guy whom I called last Friday said that the NEC service centre Penang branch is at Jalan Perindustrian Bukit Tengah, Bukit Mertajam. That’s a long way. Maybe after I send my notebook for repair, I can go to the town of Bukit Mertajam to hang out or visit my grandma at Kulim. After I exited the Penang bridge, I follow the road sign to Bukit Tengah and try to find this service centre. Nearly got my car hit by this fucking motorcyclist. I gave them some lovin’ too by shouting obscenities. There’s big ass lorry everywhere. Dangerous. Oh, there’s road block ahead, can’t use my phone. I forgot to bring my hands free device. It’s already 11:20am and shit…i’m lost…
Damn it. I’m lost
Ahead, I see a petrol station. Maybe now is a good idea to ask huh? Some brief instruction, they showed me how to get to the place. After going round and round, I still can’t find the service centre. What the hell? I’ve been conned? I only saw a DELL computers assembling factory and service centre and Guppy plastic factory. Looking at the sky making me want to get a drink, maybe eat something. Hungry plus it’s really hot (no, I don’t open my clothes). Nasi Kandar Pelita (Juru) is nearby. When I arrived there, I saw something. It make me started to get pissed off of the support service guy. Why dosen’t he just say the place is at Juru? That would make things easier. Anywhoo, I found the NEC sign, the factory and the service centre. Finally.
As usual, I need to fill some form at the guards desk and leave my IC. Of course, camera is not allowed in the compound. I showed some papers to the cute receptionist and she asked me to wait while she called somebody to assist me. While waiting, I try the stuff they’re showing. New notebook model, desktops, plasma tv, etc. After explaining the damage to the service centre guy, he told me the checkup service itself gonna cost me rm150 (DAMN!) not incude the price of the replacement parts. Not thinking clearly, I say yes and asked him to do anything to make my notebook working again. Signing some papers, leave my beloved notebook to the guy and I’m outta there.
The papers
Now that the notebook has been sent, I have to wait. One week later, after I hassled them and asked them to hurry, they told me that the spare part is still in KL. Since I am going to KL on 22nd, I think it is better I take take notebook to KL and get it repaired there.
The tag
I arrived at the place at 12:30 pm. The cute receptionist tell me my tech support guy has gone out. Come back at 2pm. Shit, this sucks. I went to my grandma’s place at Kulim to relax and have lunch. At 3pm, I went back to the service centre. Finally, I got to see my notebook. My precious. The job is still not done actually. I have to get the spare part at KL and asked them to fix it for me. With no charge of course.
The NEC factory and service centre, Pulau Pinang
Arrived at KL. It’s midnight, of course the place is not open yet. I wait till tomorrow, 2 pm and then I went to the place. It’s at Menara TA, near KLCC. Easy. After consulting the technician, he asked me to wrote down my name at the waiting list because they had to order my spare part. what the hell? I thought the thing is already here. The technician explained to me that the spare part they order is not for my notebook model. Aw…sucks. I walked out frustrated. About a week later, the same technician call me to inform the spare part is finally here. Ah..jolly. I went there on monday (July 4th) and get this notebook fixed. It took about 20 minutes and my RM84 for the installation of the part. My lovely notebook are now repaired and working as usual. Hooray!
The Notebook
yesterday, dad buy some corn at pasar malam. he thought it is nice to have corn for supper. he has yet to decide to do roast corn (jagung bakar) or boil corn (jagung rebus). after not so much thinking, today i’m eating jagung rebus…yeay!. i boiled the corn (wait, this is a lie. i don’t do any of the cooking. dad do it for me :razz:)
the corn is nice and yellow. add some butter and salt…mmm…it tastes great :!:. dad make it not too salty because he can’t ate too much salt. not good for his health.
anyhoo…thanks a lot dad. maybe after this we can make jagung bakar.

what i do today? photoblogging. check this out 
spending a lot of time by myself had made me thinking. i’ve been wasted a lot of time. maybe half of my life. that’s bad. so, one day i thought, why not move my ass to penang and stay here with my dad. although the people here a bit fucked up with the idiot driving style, kiasuness, etc. but i think i already adjusted to that life. i always want to leave my past but never had the chance. they always pop up unnoticed. maybe i am running from my problems. but what the hell. fuck that. leaving kl might be a good idea. anyway, this thing is still undecided or i might call it under construction. we’ll see…
okay, enough of that. maybe later i’ll write about that. what did i do today? i went to kangar with dad to attend his friend wedding. the food is okay and the ceremony is different. it is difficult to find a kampung style wedding nowdays. many people opt for a stylish wedding, at fancy hotel/dewan, catering, etc. remember your roots malay people. anyway, ayam masak merah is always delicious.
after that, we went to padang besar for some shopping. it just 20km from the wedding place and we thought, what the hell. i buy myself a t-shirt and asam. maybe next time i’ll buy more t-shirt and a souvenir perhaps. it’s been a long time since we went here. next time, we go to danok ok?
after padang besar, we went to alor star. dad badly want to eat mee abu, the famous mee sup in alor star. sadly, it is not his rezeki today. the mee sold out after three bus of tourists clean it up. damn tourist. nevermind dad, maybe next time. we went back home after that. relaxing and watching live f1 at tv. it is a nice day today…
i’m started to get bored hanging out here. the only thing i like here is the food. what do penang kids do at night huh? maybe if i hang out hat disco, it will be not so boring. so, today i go and see the movie mr and mrs smith, or on some malay magazine, they called it tuan dan puan smith. wtf is that? the popcorn here lack flavor, not like those gsc popcorn. what about the movie? well, it is great. angelina jolie lips are awesome plus they mixed the element of blowing stuff up and sex scenes. might have to buy the dvd later for the uncensored part. there’s one thing though. the counter girl gave me a great seat, but the bad thing is, i don’t know who is sitting beside me. i thought it would be some random hot chicks, which happens to me before this. on my left is this lame boy who maybe jakun or something. switch the fucking phone off dumbass. on my right is a family who brought in their small kids (6/7 years old or younger) to watch the movie. it’s an 18sg type movie. who the fuck in the world bring their small kids watch a movie with semi-nude and sex scenes? this is not a movie for kids. they are showing the movie madagascar next door. why can’t they watch that movie instead? the ass part is, halfway through the movie, their kids started to make this noises like talking and sound effect of their own. fucking idiot. urgh…these people just kill the mood, totally. those jackass and dumbass.
aku kat penang neh. baru sampai semalam. memandangkan aku ada sisa-sisa cuti ni, aku lari dari kl, kotaraya yang penuh dengan onak dan duri, ha ha ha…disebabkan kompleks bukit jambul dekat je dengan rumah penang aku neh, aku pi jalan-jalan kat situh, nak cari thermal paste. nasib baik rega dia rm12. oh, time aku baeratur nak beli makan kat kfc tadi, punya la kampung orang penang belakang aku neh. tak reti-reti nak bersabar. aku tengah order, pastu depa ni duk sibuk-sibuk menempel kat sebelah kiri dan kanan aku. tak reti beratur ke hape. tampaq kang, sesia aje.
[iso 200, f4, 1/3 sec.]
ah…i woke up early today. that’s hillarious. by the way, i walked around kl last night. just for fun and for hurting my knees. the minyak gamat i keep in my bag is really useful. after i walk around low yat plaza, i went to secret recipe at lot 10 for dinner and wireless internet. yes, those tmnet hotspot. sadly the wireless router didn’t support 802.11g, so i stuck with 11mbps. dosen’t matter anyway because our broadband speed is not at a whopping 144mbps.
on my way back, around 2am (yep, i did a lot of ‘walking’), i notice something different with my housing area. i should sense it earlier but i’m not really an outdoor person this month, being alone, confined in my room. oh, anyway, the children playground near my house kinda transformed into a whore-playground. with school holidays and all, these couples sitting on the bench doing what not. next time, i will be ready with my video camera. wtf is wrong here? where are the eldery? where is the rukun tetangga? or jais? probably the village elderly only like to be a busybody, stopped my car when i drove 15km/h in front of the housing area or bitch and mengumpat other people. yes ya’ll, most of the people in my housing area like to mengumpat (like i’m doing right now, but i do it by typing not talking). maybe it is the new sport.
