Say it ain't so

Add a new page element on this blog just now....Videos from YouTube...Its by Weezer , Say it ain't so from the The Blue Album... released in 1994, it was called the blue album because it has no title..so people refer it to blue album because the colour of the album was blue....

I remember the first time i heard it, it was back in 1995, at that time i was at Kolej Mara Banting, studying A-levels Accounting, back then i thought i would be an accountant one day... and along the way i realized that accountancy was not my thing...i could never pulled it off..and got interested in computers instead..and the rest is history... Anyway back to the story... a friend of mine back then by the name of Hafiz ( He is now an Engineer somewhere in JB) introduced me to Weezer and the blue album...and saw my first music video of Buddy Holy on his laptop.... I was so amazed on how a video can be played on a laptop...back then the computer was not that hi-tech... intel pentium 75 Mhz, 8mb of ram, 2mb of vga, 2GB of hardisk space and a sound blaster sound card and you good to go ( that spec was our house first pc..and the pc are still there in Muar and i bet i can get it working again...)

The other day when i was browsing through YouTube, i found videos from Weezer, and it got me reminisence the good old days...back in 1995..back then i was young..eager to explore new things and i was in love....hence it got me changing the title of this blog to We're Going To Party Like Its 1995 !!!...

Ahh...what a good year that was...all i have from that year was memories and experience...my A-Level went up in smoke, and i burried my dreams to be and accountant somewhere in the Kolej MARA Banting grounds....but i still have Hafiz's Blue Album cassette somewhere in Muar ( Sorry Apis..i know you were furious when couldn't find the cassette...it was me who took it... muahahahaha)

Bored Out Of My Skull 2/ Dieting

I'm bored like hell...there is nothing to do...no job or what so ever...and furthermore I'm hungry like hell...todays breakfast consist of a Hi-5 chocolate bun and plain water. Wonder why a sudden change in breakfast rather than the normal rm 1.20 nasi lemak on the side of the road in Jenderam or Lily's Nasi Goreng or Mee Hoon...sadly to say...i'm on a diet... I've bitching about my weight for quite some time now....my weight have been steadily increasing since i'd stopped smoking about 2 years ago... i'm quite worried about my weight, because my feet starts to hurt when i climbed the stairs and i'm easily out of breath...so i thought..i have to start somewhere.... so officially yesterday i set out on my journey on dieting.... if i can see any progrees let say i lost a kilo this week...i can say the diet is working...

I was amazed by NoktahHitam, in one of his post in his blog, he says that the was able to loose 16kg in a month by dieting...so what the hell...if i'm able to loose only 5 kg in a month than it is surely a success...loosing weight is much much harder than gaining them... My biggest problems is rice... as long as i remembered..i have to have at a least a meal with rice....and i ate them a lot...usually three plates of rice whether for lunch, dinner or breakfast(in a form of nasi lemak, nasi berlauk, nasi dagang, nasi kerabu)... so the hardest thing for me is #1..refraining myself from eating a lot...#2..Getting through the day without nasi... i know if i'm able to do this for at least 2 - 4 weeks ...my body will get used of having little food.. the uncontrolable hunger and headache will stop.... i guess....

For now....i'll be having this piece of roti arab for lunch....oo man this hunger is killing me....

Bored Out Of My Skull

Yosh...its 10.40 am...and i'm bored as hell...its been like this for the past 2-3 weeks because i have nothing to do. Usually my immediate officer will give me some sort of report to generate and usually by request of the JTK (Jabatan Tenaga Kerja) Officers, but lately they have not been any request, its that time in a year that nobody needs a report. But when its the end of the year..the request for reports is overwhelming. Today i start my day by eating nasi lemak that i bought on the side of the road on my way to work. The nasi lemak was rm 1.20, a 20 sen increase because of the price of rice had gone up. I remmeber the day that nasi lemak bungkus was only 20 sen, that was what nearly 20 years ago....and the best nasi lemak bungkus that i've tasted was nasi lemak Pak Lan. Nobody can challenge his nasi lemak bungkus at that time...and it was only for 20 sen. That was the good old days. After having nasi lemak with some kuih, i had my daily dose of conspiracy stories from cursing malay and chedet.com....they have interesting stories over there...do check out their blog sometimes....then a round of biliards in a form of Bankshot Billiard Deluxe....and now i'm writing this...later i'm going to fetch mom from putrajaya erl, she'll be staying at my house tonight and early tommorow morning, we're off to Muar...to the Pejabat Kadi...my mom wants to report about her problems....i'll tell you the details another day....
