starlight

starlight cinema. movie under the star/sky (not the one where stars are blind). the grass is a bit wet because of the rain before but it’s okay since we got the stylish ‘tikar’ for a low-low price. haha…

btw, thanks lynn for the free tickets.

nacho

i was suppose to write a review but i’m a bit busy. but i can say this. the movie is funny hillarious. lots of gags and some nasty scene. laughing all they way. although some ‘people’ claim the movie does not suit her (ehem, ehem). so, go watch it eh.

opendns

watsup.

a while ago, i found out this new services called opendns which provides the internet users free dns server. yeah i know that most isp out there also give their users free access to their dns servers but how secure it is? the difference is, opendns have two special features which is domain correction and phishing protection. that is, of course, safer than the others.

i don’t need to blabber more. i’ve been using this service about a month or so. indeed, myspace does load faster than before. change to their dns servers (208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220) or visit the website at www.opendns.com for more info.

mykad reader

got mykad? verified the data stored inside the chip yet? i know i have. well, this is kinda lame but i just knew that astro decoder can be used as a mykad reader. just slot in your mykad face down into the decoder’s second smart card hole (the first one is for the astro’s smart card. you all know that…right?) and select ‘mykad reader’ on channel 800.

easy huh? lucky they spelled my name right.

no heart

sifat hormat menghormati aku rasa makin lama makin pudar dalam generasi kita. kalau setakat angkut ramai-ramai pergi khidmat negara, belajar menembak, tapi tak diajar budi bahasa, takde gunanya. muda-mudi sekarang ni tak macam dulu lagi. semuanya asyik pandang ke barat. mengidolakan sesuatu yang bukan-bukan.

beberapa hari lepas aku saksikan sendiri betapa hancurnya sifat budi bahasa dalam masyarakat muda mudi kita. kelas hampir nak tamat. pensyarah masih tengah bercakap. tiba-tiba ada beberapa pelajar yang fikir mereka ‘terlalu popular’ tutup lampu dan buat ‘surprise party’ untuk seorang rakan kelas yang ‘kononnye’ selebret hari jadi dia hari tu.

aku tengok, muka pensyarah tu terpinga-pinga. terdiam lesu. diperbodohkan macam tu sahaja. adakah lebih baik sekurang-kurangnya pelajar-pelajar tu tunggu selepas habis kelas atau buat kat tempat lain. kurang ajar sungguh. sedih bila melihatkan belia masa depan macamtu. menggambarkan yang gagalnya sistem pembelajaran masakini. sekian.

breaking

this of course, a showing off post. it’s special preview ok?

got many tickets to this thing (don’t know why), but i only take two. well, uh…it’s suffice. the movie…was alright. although i must say, it’s a bit flat. the story line that is. it’s a good date movie, not a make out movie…eww gross you perverts. unfortunately we didn’t bump in somebody famous there.

updating the yahoo…again

in less than a month, i updated my yahoo messenger program again. yeah, i want try to be up to date. apparently yahoo has release a full new version of their messaging client, that is, version 8. i thought it is still in beta. i see nothing new there except they put some bridging system that enables yahoo users to chat with msn users. that’s cool btw. oh, and they stuff in some plug-ins features that gives us options to add functions or something, whatever.

of course, with the new messenger, there’s always the annoying advertisement banner. and yes, kind people out there is always helpful in giving us the way to remove that thing. head over here for the removal steps or just download this registry edit file and execute that file (no worries lah, the file won’t messed up your computer registry). after that, delete a file called ‘urls.xml’ in the ym’s ‘cache’ folder. be careful and enjoy.

sunday morning

early sunday morning. it’s…
sweaty,
wet,
passionate,
nervous,
fast,
fun,
crazy,
weird,
awkward
…and stupid.
