My dad is not well & when is the pay up?

Got a phone call from my sis, sayin that I'm needed in Seremban as soon as possible. My dad is not well. He got thinner, and he doesn't even remember why my kid sister went to Penang. So I'm goin back this weekend. It's been a while though.

A colleague of mine borrowed 110 bucks and said he'll pay up on the next thursday. Well 8 thursdays has passed and still nothin. Is he hopin fer me to forget bout it? I don't know but I can't afford to forget that amount of money. I even have to delay my Carcass CD just so that he can use the money. Now my buddy who's sellin the CD is askin me if I really want the CD. *sigh*. Oh yeah the guy who borrowed my money is the same guy who borrowed my car too. Nice eh? Such a headache. I'll probably understand it if he can tell some reason fer delayin the return money, but then he just keep a close lips. Later.

Aircond and electrical problem solved.

Oh about the problem I had with the aircond, interior lightin etc. It's solved after I changed the main fuse. So the old fuse was roasted. Probably after the wrong battery installation previously. So now (almost) everythin is ok. Cool. Later.

My car is jerkin on low RPM! Sounds of trouble? Hey since when I'm a mechanic?

I think I need to change the spark plugs of my car. Or probably it's time to clean the carburator. Yeah definitely the time to clean the radiator. Hmm can't forget bout the engine oil too. ARGHHH! My friend borrowed the car fer a day then now the engine is jerkin on low rpm, on every damn gear. ARGHHH!!!!! Not to mention he nailed the 15 bucks worth of petrol without even refuelin a single cent. Great. Just great. Now I have to do all the above because the jerkin is tickin my senses off. Oh I nearly forgot somethin. My tools is lost too. So I have to buy a new one. And plus the new battery I bought before. Hooray! I should make a book bout "How to empty your pocket in 2 weeks".

Yeah well it's time to do the checkups fer the car. I know. But then I can't stand it bout the new jerkin problem after my friend borrowed the car. Sheesh. At least refuel the darn car la woi! Ok enough with my angst. As long as he didn't scratch the car. I hope he didn't scratch the pistons. Called up my friends and suggestions I get is, clean/change the spark plugs and if it's still jerkin, clean the carburator. I can do the former meself (theorically, hey it's not rocket science is it? is it?) but I will have to let the workshop to do the latter. So I bought a tool to screw/unscrew spark plugs. Bought somethin to clean the radiator too. Oh yeah I'm tryin to do the minor work by meself as long as it doesn't involve complicated things. What is complicated things you might ask. Well, it is, hmm.. I dunno yet. Maybe somethin like tearin the engine apart and not knowin how to assemble it back. Hah!.

Seriously, I helped my friend Alon when he changed the engine oil, check my spark plugs before and (I think) I can manage that. Maybe I'll post somethin bout it here later. Some sort of simple howto. I'll start off with cleanin or changin the spark plugs, then with cleanin the radiator.

Guess what, I found the original manual fer the car. And I just knew that I have a jack in a compartment inside the boot. So I actually have 2 jack, 1 is missin after my car was repo-ed. Yeah cool. So I only have to buy the tool to use the jack with.

One of the issue regardin the DIY car-care project I'm tryin to do is *drum rolls*.. space! I live in an apartment now. I fergot I'm not in my sister's house anymore. Back then it's quite easy to do car works. Got a few friends cum mechanic nearby and a spacey parkin lot in front of the house to do all the dirty works. Now all I have is a dynamic parkin lot. Yeah you know the drills, nobody own a parkin spot and if you came back late and the parkin lots is full, say hi to the roadside parkin outside.

Another thing is the accessibilities of water. I live on the 4th floor and I'm not goin to transfer buckets after buckets of water am I? Not when there's not even any elevator here. But then, minor works like cleanin / changin the spark plugs, changin the engine oil will go smoothly. So I might have to wait fer the 'cleanin the radiator' project a bit. My 'kampung' (hometown) friend Shah (you'll know him if you read my Bio in my homepage)
who's also an experienced mechanic will be movin in to Puncak Jalil somewhere in February so his terrace house's parkin lot will be suitable fer medium car works *evil laughs plus some coughin*.

DIY car works is fun eventhough I don't know much bout engine, transmition bla bla. It's just fun to learn a bit bout how to take care of the engine and so on. I have to confess though, most of the time I'll be leavin the dirty work to my buddies because engine (and other mechanical things car have) to me is not like a computer to me. It's way different. So it's best to leave the hard works to the more experienced. Fer now *grins*. Later!

Got my car back hah!

My car was scheduled fer auction today. Yeah so I got it back. I took it yesterday and the condition is, well, not so healthy. No rust whatsoever. But then there's a few scratches here and there. Better do some checklist thing.

1) Visual condition: Ok. But there's a bit of a dent and scratch on the rear left of the car's body (I don't know if 8cm++ is "a bit". That's quite long. *sigh*.). Shit. I can ignore it if the door is scratched but the body! Arghhh. There's also a a long scratch on the right door. *raise middle fingers on the air*.

2) Battery: Basically dead. Dried to the bone. So I had to buy a new battery. Roasted 90 bucks fer that new batt. Damn. Then because I accidently connected the wrong wiring fer the new battery (is there any standard fer the battery?) it made the fuses burnt too. Got the light workin but the stereo, interior light is all kaput. I hope it's just the fuse(s).

3) Air-condition: No fan now. Nice. The gas has run out too I guess. It was full before they took the car. Just fucken great. I have to send the car to air-cond shop.

4) Engine: It's ok. But the sound is pretty much harsher than before. Might be the engine oil. So I have to change it too. It was a new oil.

3) Misc: They took the gear lock out and didn't bother to even place it back properly. Nice job. Oh my boots is missin too. When I got the car, the back panel (where some car woofer is installed. I don't know the proper name in car terminology.) was disassembled so I had to install it myself. Somebody opened the panel behind the rear light (in the car's boot) and didn't bother to assemble it back.

Fer now, there's all I can think of. Well, can't expect these guy to take a good care of the cars aye? Thankfully all of the most important documents is still there. My cassettes too is still safe. Next time, if I don't have the money to pay the car, I'll make sure it'll not get repossessed easily. The car might not be as drivable as it was the next time it's park in that place. Anger aside, it's good to drive that bugger again. *smile*. Later.

p/s: oopsie. I accidently posted this on my FreeBSD & Me's blog. My bad.

Ridin in the flood, car auctionin & no "balik kampung" this weekend.. again..

Phew. I was stuck in Klang this evenin, after doin some installation. The it rained heavily before I get the chance to leave Klang. So I have to take shelter at a nasi lemak shop at Jalan Meru. Sat there fer more than 1 hour before I decided to ride in the rain. So I rode my bike and after I finally reached Shah Alam, there was this major traffic jam. You know what? The section after the flyover is flooded! Ouch. So I waited until I had to make a choice. I have to ride in the flood. So I wait fer any motorbike to be the pacemaker but none on my side did. But then there was a guy who shove his bike (he doesn't want to have the engine runnin in the flood? Weird.) from the opposite. I watched his trail carefully and then I quickly went to the next side of the road facing the incomin guy. After he made it across, I hold my breath and hope that the engine won't go dead in the center of the flood. Liftin my legs a bit, I tried to balance the bike as I rode in the flood, makin a wave in the flood, controllin the acceleration; makin sure that it's not too fast (or I'll lose balance) and not too slow (the cool engine will go dead quickly and that's a no no.). At the same time rammin the engine once in a while to make sure the water won't get into the exhaust. A few seconds after that, I made it! I made it across without possibly damagin the bike! But then there was people who cheered like I made a show or somethin. Damn.

If I waited fer the flood to clear, it'll take ages as it's still rainin now. I'm glad I made it back home safely without harm to me and my bike. Be carefull when you're ridin in the rain.

I called the finance today. Guess what? My car has been listed fer auction this comin 15th January. Yeow! So the personnel said that I must pay the overdue before 12:00pm on the 14th January. Yikes. And she said that if I don't have enough money to pay all overdue at once, I have to negotiate with the auction department fer that. Ouch. I'm not puttin much hope about that. So I'm left with the option of borrowin some money from my boss and payin him later. This is gettin harder and harder. Come on Karl, you must get the car back!

Hangah is not goin back to Seremban this weekend so that'll make the two of us. *sigh*. It's been a while since Fractured's last jammin session and I miss the feelin of playin bass and singin with the guys. Still no update on the proposed Indonesian gigs though. I even have to delay the new strings of my bass because of my car's situation now. Later.

Homepage saved, pressure & new year.

Ah. I finally saved all the current files of my homepage into my hard disk. Yeah I lost all the page in progress, new designs and minor tweaks of the webby after a disastrous XP corruption I had a few weeks ago. I think I told you bout the XP re-installation huh? No need fer me to rewrite the tragedy again.

I'm still thinkin bout what other important file(s) that I've lost after the wacko XP incidents. Sheesh. Can't really recall all the files but slowly it's recoverin. That's why I saved all my web pages in my hard disk, because I just remembered that my local backup of the files is lost. What can I recall later..

The thoughts of my car parked in the garage, lonely without me, sunburned, soaked in rain, is puttin a pressure on my head. Sheesh. I can't wait to bail it out soon. I hope nothin got stolen because heck, there's no tellin what happened between the pickup and parkin of that poor car. Hope it doesn't have any rust because I will surely feel sad about it. 2 month is long enough.

Hey, what did you do fer new year? Me, just sittin in my room readin some FreeBSD stuff, watchin some online biddin, readin game news. It's 2006 now huh. Yeah. The year Fractured will hopefully go fer recordin. Still haven't had the chance to practice the new songs and I still haven't change the strings of my TR. One by one Karl, be patient. You can't have all the things at once. Slowly dude. Okay. Yessir.

Hah. I wrote somethin about my Ibanez TR Series which I still haven't got the chance to finish fer my homepage. When will I start writin it again? Ideas.. Ideas.. Enjoy the new year. Make it a better year huh! Later.

Waitin to do my work, 5 years online & new Metalterus forum.

Bah! The earliest appointment is at 3.00pm. Hey, I've been thinkin bout somethin just now. It's about my homepage. Wow, it's nearly 5 years since I published that webby-o-mine. Unfortunately, the old website design I made is lost in a bad XP error I stumbled recently which have left me with no choice but to reformat and cleanly install a new XP. Damn. I don't know if I have another copy of the old design. Even my new design is lost! Oww I nearly fergot I wrote a half page of new rants and I'm sure I didn't burn it into CD. Damn!

Anyway, thinkin about this few years my website has been around the net and stayed in a free home at Graffiti.Net, words can't do justice on how excellent my web hostin is. I tried a few and since my personal preference is a host without any popup etc, Graffiti.Net got my attention. Now I don't care much bout popups and still Graffiti.Net have none. Excellent. Yeah this sounds more and more like a lame advertisement I know. But heck, my site is still up fer more than 5 years and countin! Are yours? :P.

Okay here's the news. There's a new Metaterus forum online. The old one will have a limited period of life left until it'll be totally disbanded. You'll have to register a new account fer the new forum though. No, you still don't have to be a 'trve'/'tr00' or whatever lame bullshit you underage kiddies wants to call yourself to join the forum. But keep in mind that this is a metal forum. You can talk bout your fav hiphop singer on the other gazillion forum out there.

I heard there's a rumour that TV3 is goin to organise a metal gig soon? Later.

Where's my shirt?, get my car back & 2006 emotions.

Oh my! This is makin me crazy. I think I lost the T-shirt. It's THE Gegaran Metal 2005 T-shirt! Ahhhhh! I knew somethin is missin. But I don't know where I've lost it. My sister has moved to Melaka now and I have this feelin that the tee was in the old house. I hope she brought it with her to Melaka because that t-shirt is a very valuable thing to me. Sheesh. I really wish I accidently left it at the old house while I was movin my things to this apartment.

I'm currently workin my arse's off this few months. If I can achieve my personal target, I'll bail my car out from the horrible finance's garage in less than a month startin from next January. I really miss my car. I have to hold my urge to buy new clothes, computer parts, new boot, mp3 player and so on, so that I can get my car back. Anyway, I have to pay about RM3,000 to get the darn 4 wheel back. Yeow. I guess the towin distance from my place to the garage is expensive. Yeah great. Fucken waste of money. If I didn't have to pay the towin expenses, I probably have to pay about less than 2K. Shitty.

Now I'm coverin about 3 installer's area which is, whoa, big. I needed the cold cash so I have to cope with it. It's very tirin mind you. Puchong + Meru/Sementa + Bukit Kemuning. Sometime the appointments was so scrambled I have to rush between those places which is far. Ah, anythin to get my car back. Hope the finance won't sell my car off to somebody before I get the chance to bail it.

The work has slowly eatin my band's life. I missed my practice session last week because I have this 1 customer who just have no patient to wait fer another 2 days. Sheesh. And guess what? When I was there he said the line got no dial tone since early in the mornin. ARGHH! I purposedly waited the whole night while Fractured had to practice without me so that I could go early in the mornin to entertain the customer just to know that the line had a problem? Where's my railgun? Shitty.

Fahmi has been buggin me about 3 new songs which I still haven't had the chance to practice. Hey my Ibanez TR Series is with me now hehe. But there's only 1 string left, the 1 I bought to replaced the snapped string before. Read my previous blog and you'll know (I was waitin to write somethin like this..). Oh yeah while you're at it, why don't you read my blog from the beginnin. Ok ok back to the story. I still have 3 more new songs left to practice and then we can start our recordin session. Yay! I want the full-length album to be out in the early quarter of 2006. I'll write bout our upcomin recordin when the time comes.

Speakin of 2006. Wow. I'll be 28 soon. A few blinks of an eye and, wallah! I'll be 28. Some say it's the age fer men to find his companion or soulmate or whatever in life. How bout me? Maybe, or maybe not. I don't know. Time will tell. The times like this, when the increment of the year is near, is quite sentimental to me. It's the time when my mind wander back to the old days. My childhood, my young teenage life (wah after this I'm no more eligible fer the "teen" title huh? Dagnammit!) and so on. We all gone through so much huh? Yessirree. This is why bein a human is great. We have memories. We can virtually relive our past within our mind. My thought goes to those who left me, my lovely mother (I'm still a bit emotional when I think about her, love you mom...), my grandparents (atuk, uwan. Hey my Raya's always a blast when they're around. Ah, there's dust in my eyes..) who made my childhood's life great, my uncles and aunties, I really miss you all. Sorry fer the emotions. I know, I have a soft heart inside. Listenin to The Police - Englishman In New York is the suitable sound my mood wants to hear..

Keep your eyes open few birthday announcement shamelessly written by me, in not-so-distant future. Oh yeah Isman, yours will be 1st, I know. Love and appreciate those who you have and remember those who left. Later.

And then a happy story. *Yeah I can change my mood quickly ;)*

As said by Fahmi, the venue fer our upcomin gig is Indonesia! Woohoo! From what I heard, Indonesian metal crowd are one of the best in Asia. This is somethin Fractured cannot simply miss. I'll update you guys on this later.

Textual bash on the black metal issue. Yeah I'm moody.

*sigh*. I wanted to refrain meself from makin any comment whatsoever. But I just can't. The issue keep pushin my limit more and more everyday. It's the hot-from-the-oven (Again? Sheesh, it's more like a reheat of yesterday's instant noodle) issue of Black Metal. I actually don't want to make a comment out of this (I will tell why later) but then I personally think that I should voice out my stand. Biased or not.

First of all. Let me clear some things up front. I'm not a black metaller nor I'm a fan of such genre. Black metal is just not my type of soup. Sorry BM fans, I like what I like and BM is just not my taste. Your preferences is yours and I respect that. Hey I know *many* of you guys is just the fan of the music and nothin more. But then, not all people have the advantage of usin self-rational thinkin when it comes to issue like this. And now this issue is gettin hotter as the day goes by.

I have a mixed feelin fer the BM scene here. Let's be honest, most of the people I know who's into BM is because, as dumb as it sounds; BM is anti-Christian. Well, as far as I know, BM is not picky when it comes to religion bashin and sort. So practically, it's dumb to say that you're a BM and then bablin about how muslim you are at the same time. It's (sadly) plain ridiculous. That's not the only reason why I've never like any BM bands whatsoever. I can start sayin somethin like how too physolopical BM scene is (not to mention the "We're trve black metaller" kinda BS) and honestly, the music just doesn't suit my taste like I've stated before. This is strictly MY opinion so whatever you want to say to me, my stand will always be the same. Hey it's not you are evil or somethin (although ironically, fer you trve BM fans, evil is a good thing) and I totally respect your choice of music. Anyway, no worries because I got my flamesuit on.

"So why bother with the issue" you might ask. Good question. To be honest, if the issue is strictly within the BM community, I won't waste my time writin somethin least thinkin bout it. But then the current situation shows that it's not. The other metal community in general is also somewhat unwillingly dragged into the mess that's not totally ours to start with.

Take an example of a recent incident. A few friends of mine who's not a BM-er was busted because they're in a metal gig fer supportin their friend's band who happened to be in a gig that have maybe 1 or 2 BM band. Now tell me that is not suck at all. They have to sleep in lockup fer a few days and eat God knows what type of food suit fer an arm-robber. And then after that a few of the trve BM-er starts a rethoric like "we must let the masses know the truth that we're not evil". I agree that the masses don't have the sufficient knowledge about the underground music scene but then it's not totally their fault. Come on and take look at yourself! Most of you have personality problems. Your stand s is inconsistent (read my opinion above) and oh please don't even let me start with those corpse-paint stuff.

Your claims that BM is harmless make no sense. To me, disrespect fer other religion is just plain racist. Most of you hate Jesus and yet the same BM ideology you praise makes mockery out of your own God. Then you brag about how faithfull you are in your religion. I can't think of another suitable word but 'dumb'. Hey, like I've said before, your taste in music is yours. But please don't do dumb shit to make yourself look extreme or cool or somethin without thinkin about the consequences. Oh and try startin to be consistent in your stand. There's more choices of better metal genres out there, many are free of dumb agenda. And 1 more thing, you don't nescessarily need to do/say stupid things even if you listen to lousy music.

Enough with BM-er flamin. Now to the media. The more I read about those "thorough research" about the BM movement, the more my stomach ache. It'll be just a few more paragraph of those bull nonsense till I vomit my stomach out. I know your publication desperately in need of high rating/share or whatever, but I didn't expect the writings to be so, well, low.

Until now neither me or my friends have encountered those "JIT" group. Never. Are they fer real? I don't know. I have doubts and all the "confessions/investigations" the media are doin just won't wipe my doubts away. I do think that some people will do crazy stuff like ritual or somethin like that but I don't think metal has anythin to do with it. Remember Ayah Pin? I doubt he ever listen to any sort of even rock music but he topped satan himself by claimin to have create many current religion. It's the same as sayin he's God Himself!! (if I'm not mistaken, he actually said that..).

Now everybody knows that the media is biased when it comes to almost anythin. Tabloids are the worst. And it's sad to see that some publication who used to be credible and informative to read now opted fer the latter. Less fact, more probabilities. Remember the "naked chinese prisoner" case? You should. It's still fresh. Can you see what the whole "assume first, investigate later" media (and some of the parliament seater) mentality has done to the image of our country? That sort of mentality stinks like a dead rat in this BM issue too. They'll shamelessly assume everythin they can think of and will try to make it a fact by feedin it to us day by day. Most of the accusation is nonsense and all is ridiculous. Things like "BM-er will wear black and drink goat's blood". I mean, come on, this is Malaysia! Not Sweden! I doubt there's any local band who drank any goat blood ever! Gimmick is another thing. Hey kids wants to have a little bit of fun too ya know. I saw many black Cypress Hill t-shirts, mostly black color and they have skull printed up front. So, is Cypress Hill a trve BM-er? Thanks to the irrelevantly biased media those found wearin one will surely have a nice spot at the nearest lockup but just fer information, Cypress Hill is some sort of rap band! Do a REAL research damnit!

Yeah sure BM is bad but please make sure you educate people on the differences of BM to the other *insert-your-fav*-metals. Not all metal like satan. There's many more metal who are more to write about the dumbness of war and such to even bother about the whole satan thingy. Why wearin black t-shirt is such an issue anyway? I wear white, blue, red and yeah my favorite color is black but that doesn't mean I'm worshippin lucifer in my free time! At least we're wearin somethin decently. Take a look at the hiphop scene locally. With girls wearin skimpy dresses fer local hiphop/rap/whatevershitthereis video which mostly promotes a too-social lifestyle. Pfft. But media doll such things because that sort of lifestyle is much more accepted in the masses. They don't want to upset their main consumers. Just pathetic. Don't let me start with the poppy-ballard-rock scene locally. The eardrums-bleedin songs of don't-leave-me-for-him-or-I'll-cry and gazillions of other mind numbin triangle-love/near-to-lovemakin/self-whinin bands/songs that's almost like they have rented a frequent special spot in the local newspaper/magazine. What are we goin to do about that? Oh no there's many other but I'm too tired to think.

One of the media used this issue before and the sale skyrocketed. Don't you think you owe a "thanks" to the BM community (specially) because they made it possible fer you to finally get a fat paycheck (or even a big bonus). Now the readers are more mature as the internet brings new (even true) meanin of "research" fer them. Anyway, fer the media, I hope this time you guys can buy your dream *insert-the-stuff-you-want-to-buy* when this issue is hot again. Ouch, my bad, this issue is already hot.

Off Topic but relevant: I was thinkin bout gettin a cool FreeBSD black T or a sweatshirt but because of this current heat on BM issue, I don't want people to say I worship a demon (daemon is good, demon is bad) and spendin the night in detention. *sigh*. So much fer a 3rd world mindset in a "developin" country.

New bike!, Fractured show oversea? & metalheads busted.

Haha. I bought a bike. Now it's easier to go places. No more dependin on Bobby to take me places now. Yeahhh. It's a 4-stroke bike and it's a brand new. Still shiny but I dunno fer how long. Heh. Livin in an apartment is hard when it comes to washin own transport etc. Ah well. I'm still learnin my way round here. I'm gettin the hang of this place though. But my work area is includin Meru/Kapar and the place is still unknown to me. No I went there a few times but with Bobby. To go there by meself is another thing. Soon baby, soon.

I'm on a flu now. Got it yesterday so I didn't go to work today. *sigh*. I missed a few appointments. I'm on medication so I hope tomorrow I'll be fine. Got somethin important to do tomorrow.

Fahmi called and spewed a good news. If it's true. Next year Fractured will probably be playin oversea. We are confirmed as one of the band listed but the venue is still in discussion. Probably Thailand or Indonesia. Woohoo! I'll update you guys on this matter frequently.

Last week nearly a hundred of gig goer, bandmembers etc got busted in a metal gigs. Got my friends in the lockup too but when I was in Seremban, it's already Sunday and we can't bail em out. So it's certain that there will be no metal gigs this year. *sigh*. I'm not into black metal but why does I have to suffer because of this? WHY!! Later.

Ridin a Kawasaki & gettin used to Puchong

Whoa. Today is somethin. It's my 1st time ridin bike doin installation. One of my boss who have this Kawasaki KRZ went back home and asked me if I want to use his bike to do installation. Ouch. I don't quite know how to ride bikes with clutch. But then there's many places to go so I had to take the offer. Guess what? It ain't that bad after all! I have bad experiences with Yamaha RXZ fer bein unforgivin when it comes to take the 1st and 2nd gear but this Kawasaki is pretty much easy. I'm startin to like ridin it. So no more missed installation's appointment. Hurrah! I have a few days to use the bike though and after that, it's back to ridin on that back of Bobby's bike. Well, it's fun!

I'm gettin used to Puchong's area now. I had a few wrong turns but I'm gettin a hang of this place. It's not that hard but there's more shortcuts I have to learn. Not bad fer a Seremban guy in Puchong. To be honest, Puchong's road are not as messy as Klang's. Later.

Care to Care2? & my sister will move out.

I was searchin fer some birthday E-cards when I stumbled on Care2 Website. If you are into human rights, animal rights, earth rights sorta things; this site is good. The registration is free and you'll have a free email address if you want to. They have loads of non-profit activities which you can join.

I know I haven't update my personal homepage fer quite some time now. Well, I don't quite sure what I want to update. I'm waitin fer my new desktop PC and Bobby said that he wanted to register a phone line & Streamyx (yay!) fer our new place. It'll be a few months more I guess. Ah well.

My big sister will be movin to Malacca by the end of this month. Yikes!. I still have loads of stuff back there in Seremban and I don't know how the heck I can get those stuff here with my car is no longer mine now. Yeah my Ibanez is on the top of my rescue list. Later then.

Internet hogged & love after breakup.

Urghhh. I'm in a Internet Cafe near my place and the line is horrible. Sheesh. Gazillion of people hoggin the line with webcams, online RPGs etc and it took me nearly 15 bloody minutes to read a single email in Yahoo!. Great. Oh, and I have to wait fer ages to open up Blogger to write this blog. *sigh*. I'm not the only one payin fer this service so there's not much I can do. Except fer whinin here on the net haha!.

How would you feel if you really love somebody but at the same time, you know you will never be together. Fer me, I'll be sad fer sure, but at the same time, I'll be happy because I know I get the love I longed fer from her although she will not be mine. You know who I'm talkin about. Yeah we can't be together, but whatever happens, I know that I love her and she'll love me. The feelin won't change even after she's with somebody else and me with another person. Ask yourself, how many of you will be friends with the person who's no longer your couple or such. Breakin up doesn't always mean that you need to be that person's enemy or somethin like that. In this case, breakin up means that we both will always care fer each other even if we can only be lovin friends.

I wonder how long it'll take fer this blog to get published after I hit the 'Publish' button. Wanna experiment? Here goes. Later.

P/s: I will always care fer you Momoe. We will always have our memories.

Woooohoooooo!

Ho Ho Ho! I bursted out in brief but loud laughter this mornin. Guess what. Come on. Sorry but no you guessed the wrong thing. The lady I told you about finally accepted the fact that she can't do the Streamyx installation by herself. HAHAHAHAHA! But anyway you were right about me bein cuter. Thanks.

Ok here's the story. This mornin, I saw the women's Work Order changed to "New Order" when I was darn sure I returned her appointment yesterday and changed the status to "Customer request self installation". I smirked fer a while before I asked the secretary to call her up and asked her what really happened.

So then, in the phone conversation, the lady's tone lighten. Lighter than before. Such a sweet talker. *giggles*. So she confess that she can't do the self installation. Because she wasn't allowed to. So she wanted me to go and do the installation. Although she didn't specifically say that she wanted me to go, but then, it's my area so I'll be the one who'll go and do it.

The sweet smell of victory. HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Drats!

Ahh. I have a bad mood. I'm kinda pissed off right now. Arghhh "customer is always right"? MY ASS! Most of the time they're abusin that mantra just to piss someone off. Yesterday I was supposed to do an installation at this premise, so I call up the person so set an appointment. So what did this woman says?

"I never asked fer any installation because I want to install it myself" and another gazillion blabberin that get on my nerves. So? It's totally fine if she wants to install it herself. So I told her that I have to change her 'Work Order' status to 'Self Installation' which means that my company can no longer be held responsible fer the Streamyx installation. Then I told her that she will have to go to the nearest TMNet center to collect her free modem. She said ok and things are fine. Every lives happily ever after. Heh. Tough luck.

The woman called this mornin, burstin out in rage askin me to send her the modem. So I asked my boss about it and that's when I knew that we're not authorised to give any modem fer 'self-installation' cases. I understand that perfectly but then, the woman refuses to rationally accept it. I called her again to brief the situation to her, and what did I get? She spew somethin offensive like "What rubbish are you talkin", "I don't care" and even threatenin to "Make a report" about the matter. What the hell? I was still in the Raya mood and all of the sudden, this person voluntered to spoil it. Great, just great.

She just won't accept the fact that us; Streamyx Installers are just, well, installers. We do the installation. We give modem to OUR customer where we successfully did the installation at. We can't give modems to just anybody who wants it. Self installation is different. Sigh. She wanted to do the self installation because she don't want to pay the installation fee. But she didn't realise that if I give her the modem, she have to sign a form and by signin that specific form, she will still have to pay the installation fees whether I do the installation or not and I'm pretty sure that even though the modem is given, she can never do the activation because her Streamyx package specifically stated that we, the Streamyx Installer have to be there to activate the line. I was this close on makin a verbal attack to that woman. This close. Thankfully I remembered that I'm just workin here, not the owner of the company. Damn.

The problem is simple. She didn't say specifically about her preferences on the package she opted fer to her Streamyx sale person. If she said that she wanted to do the installation herself when she registered fer the Streamyx, my company will never get a Work Order with her name on it. Simple as that. But then, Customer is always right. Yeah right. Later.

No more car but I'm good & ex-boss issue.

Last night, when I finally arrived at my new apartment after a whole day of exhaustin Streamyx installation; I noticed somethin was not right. My car which I previously parked near the apartment's staircase was not there. Strange, I don't feel that surprised at all. It's like I knew what happened. Yeah you got it. My car was towed in the finance's garage. *sigh*. There goes my 1st car.

Funny I'm not that disappointed. Maybe because lately I consider the car as my biggest liability. It was. I'm still strugglin in my financial state and the car is not much of a help. But still I am a bit disappointed thinkin that the car is just 3 month overdued. Sheesh. Ah well, DeepaRaya is comin and everybody is rushin to collect money. Heh. I'm gonna miss that four-wheeler-o-mine but I know it'll find a suitable new owner soon. Why don't I bail it out? Because I don't see the need. In my current situation, I realise I can't afford it. Maybe a little longer, when my little economy is more stabilised I can grab a cheap R19. Oh yeah R19 will always be my fav four-wheeler.

I still don't know my detail address of this new place of mine. I just don't have the time to remember it. The work is tirin enough.

My ex-boss (the insurance+used car company I used to work previously.) wanted to see me about some debt in the insurance department. To be honest, I'm tired of that bull. He is just not interested in findin who owe him but he just wanted somebody to blame. The heck. It has been month since I left and why the heck he want me to explain somethin I fergot now? Im frustrated in that. It stings my eardrums to hear him askin if I 'honestly didn't took the money'. Darn. If I took it, my car wouldn't get towed yesterday. Shitty. Just shitty. I'll go and meet him this 4th of Raya and end this sillyness fer good.

To all, Selamat Hari Raya and happy Deepavali. Enjoy it. Later.

Alsemo's Diary

Arghhhh! It's hear again. Like an auto-rewindin sissy pop song, the 'hottest' news is here again. It's about the 'Black Metal' issue. *sigh*. And I'm practically feelin happy with our upcomin November gig. Darn!

Movin in to Puchong.

Ho ho. Now my butt can be spared from the torment of continuos bike ridin. I found a place near my company's HQ. It's in Puchong. Tomorrow me and Bobby will move in there. Phew. A much better solution. But what about my studies? Hmmm. I'll have to quit, change college fer KL branch and change class to part time. I had to. Oh, I'm tryin to make a record fer the shortest blog entry. So this is it fer now. Later.

Spam is here & I changed work

Holy crap. Read the comments on my blog yet? Not yet? Go and take a peek. Done? Yeah, the thing that's most annoyin has arrived. SPAM. Sheesh. Now they're spammin blog too. Shitty. Yeah I know ID that starts with an "A" will have the most chance to be spammed. Yeah well Blogger will need to do somethin bout this soon because if spam is hauntin me, I know they're hauntin many others too.

I got the broadband installer job. Actually I was workin since Tuesday so that's why I'm not on the net this past few days. Oh yeah I skipped college fer a few days too. What to do? The work is around Shah Alam area and it'll take almost the whole day to finish a few jobs. Not to mention that ridin bike from Seremban, to Puchong, to Klang everyday is tirin. Very very tirin. Can't drive the car because of toll charges, petrol etc is a luxurious liability. Ridin bike at night is dangerous. Although the highway is a 3 lane road, bikers only can safely use the emergency lane. At night, even lorries will cruise at more than 120km/h. Yeah it's crazy. I hate travellin long distance by bike. But what can I do? I've been searchin fer a room to rent but my overhead is not enough so I have to travel all the way from Seremban to Puchong and vice versa everyday.

I have a few more paragraph of rants I wanna write but I'm totally beaten. I'm so tired. Momoe called just now but I was in the bathroom. How unlucky of me. Later then.
