i know it’ll open soon, but i want it now!

am still on trainyard express, though i have purchased trainyard which is on sale for 99 cents. go play.

p/s i love how the lite version is called “express”. it also contains 60 levels so it’s not exactly lite by any means.

here’s 10 minutes of surfing the consumerist + playing social city.

plants vs zombies zen garden!

an 11-minute plants vs zombies game (swimming pool level).

were you sharp enough to notice that my game isn’t fullscreen? :D

“yong may ling”

and there’s a recent addition (from a few months back)

“yc phoon”

as if. you’d have better luck on facebook. or up someone’s ass crack.

p/s i’m helping tag this post to disappoint all future stalkers. dead end, fuckers.

yeah. work is doing that to me now.

specifically, “senior writers” who have the whole day to gossip and whine with a fucking grating high-pitched keen. i know you’re dying, but could you take two steps in any direction to talk to someone instead of wheezing out their names over and over and over? if they didn’t hear you the first time, they won’t hear you the 34th time either. oh, sorry, forgot you’re the fucking queen of viagra. you know what, fuck you.

“art directors” who need you to hold their hand every step of the way. come in at 11:30, chat on the phone for half an hour, then yum cha, but “soooo busy la” while squealing “TEDDY BUBU I LOVE YOU” while stomping your feet and looking around to get a reaction. ya you know what? no one cares, keep it to yourself.

another fella shouting down the phone “BUSY LA , BRO!” ya maybe you can ask you boss to come in earlier rather than trying to cover up the fact that she has come in at 3-fucking-pm for no good reason. and maybe she can do more than forward emails direct with everyone’s address in it. i might as well contact julian lee from bates141 and get the brief direct. i’ll put big money that julian’s way better (for one he’s never been annoying).

another “account manager” never done deck before. fine. doesn’t read copysheet. “oh i skimmed through and thought it looked right” and “oh where are the titles?” if you aren’t going to do your fucking job, don’t expect me to treat you with any respect.

fucking “project manager” who has the IQ of a snail. no idea of scope, costing, timing. then what? lazy to boot. stop asking people to chase work for you, you stupid cunt. and yes, i know i’m not DYING like some other writers, but i’m busy so fuck off and get a real job. sheesh.

god, i can’t wait to leave this pit of annoyance and incompetence. but then again, i’m such a FUCK FACE™, so good riddance to me too.

my faithful dell laptop is a sputtering, even after a reformat (or three). but i still love it. and no, apple is not going to change my life like it changed yours. yes, it is a macbook, but it is still laptop. they aren’t mutually exclusive.

my room is so neat (disclaimer: for now) it’s like heaven.

eeeh, siapa ni? :D

am writing this from Gilliam IV as the new kid is copying over 400GB of data so i can format my tera HDD. and then, it’s going to be HFS all the way. i’m a bit scared, but not too newbie that i need to log on to apple.com for video tutorials. thank god. amen.

blackberry apps warm the cockles of my geeky little heart.

Take me as your solitary dipstick subject aka one-person focus group. Not an “early adopter”, not a smartphone user, hate(d) blackberries, couldn’t give a shit about the current group trend (re: iPhone posse in the office).

Of course it started with bloggers. Which fucking campaign doesn’t ride on the blinged up coat tails of these over-hyped camwhores? Then celcom (cleverly enough) targeted the pseudo indie/elektro group and what have you klubbers by including (baby’s) ah xu. Nice one.

My little echo got a blackberry. And pressured me sweetly with the lure of FREE chat. First learning: don’t underestimate your secondary target.

Being the google freak that I am, I started researching. BIS. Blackberry compression. Push email. BB Messenger. Met ah hiong sometime between this voracious googling and a pitch to fondle his Bold. Switching back and forth between apps got me weak at the knees. Then on monday, dragged by mr music, I touched the Curve 8520 and loved that it had no balls. Sold! Second learning: a no-fucking-brainer, sell a good product.

I now have two lines: voice & texts + BIS. Why? Because Xpax has an awesome daily unlimited plan which is actually giving me 2nd thoughts about chucking the SIM. Third learning: be generous (Maxis, you kiam siap bastards).

So, this phone *ahem* device is not my life. Yet. According to my office tablemate, he hasn’t seen me put the fucking thing down since. But fuck you all, I’ve installed bb app world (not available to malaysians) so I fucking rock. I also get to chat with the lovely baby any damned time I please. How awesome is that?

Posted, of course, from my BlackBerry@ wireless device via Vodafone-Celcom Mobile, yo.

maxis misleads customers by not keeping their site updated. i called them asking to bump my 3G up to the unlimited package just to be told that it no longer exists and all we can get now is 3-measly-GB for RM88. maxis are a bunch of jerks. AND I STILL DON’T HAVE RECEPTION AT HOME.

does neither maxis nor their agency care enough to update details such as this?

Vivitar Ultra Wide & Slim (as of today stil unnamed)

slightly geeky boring stuff:

lens: wide 22mm lens

shutter speed: 1/100

aperture: f8

Film type: 135 (35mm) film

got back my first roll (after some procrastination). success rate 1/3 since i overestimated the indoor/night capabilities and a good number of them are underexposed and pretty much unsavable.

i do like what did come out, but rather jealous that vignette-ing is more apparent in lovely’s perhentian set. oh well. photos are all still love.

p/s here’s a tutorial to add bulb mode to your beloved vivitar. (i’m not going to do it. chee sin meh cut my camera!)

but today i’ve changed my mind. i still believe them evil, nasty things, but perhaps they might be a little *ahem* necessary.

why the change of heart? well:

• LEICA F2.0 24mm wide angle lens
• full manual operation
• HD video (1280×720 pixels 24fps)

panasonic lumix DMC-LX3. need i say more?

damage: USD499.95 ~ RM1700

then there’s also blackbird, fly.

• twin reflex lens
• 35mm film
• and come on, look at it!

damage: USD175 ~ RM595

it’s nothing a little month to month saving can’t handle, but do i really want to wait 2-3 months for a camera? i want it now! and then there’s the trouble with online shopping. no card, no goods. it’s discrimination against people like me, really. i still need a card to facilitate the purchase of USD8 worth of expired films (which is a fucking steal). yummy.

there’s an HSBC credit card booth a mere walk down the street at the horrendous mid valley mamak which i’d intended to drop by later today. but now ah hiong is telling me how his FIVE credit cards nearly ruined his life.

[edit] The *Click* Shop is having a Black vs. White promotion – Blackbird, fly + Vivitar Wide and Slim for only RM500 until 30th June. feel dizzy.
