My very own HTC Touch 3G

After weeks of comparing, consideration and searching, i finally bought a HTC Touch 3G. Though not a completely new phone but it does have ample warranty left versus the price i paid :) Most would say that i got a bargain. It was within my set budget and the warranty left appealed to me so that's why its in my hands now XD

Though its not a so-called high end phone but its a whole lot different from my previous phones and sometimes i struggled to find or do what i wanted to. Since my colleague have 2 HTC 3G (1 for himself, the other for his "wife"), so being the n00b that i am, i requested help from him to get my phone up to speed with the good softwares and/or settings. But since everyone have their own preferences, i did my own customization after his efforts.

First hurdle was the contact list XD On my first day, i struggle to get past the first few contacts to find the person i wanted to call ... Would be very frustrating if it were an urgent or emergency. But hey im still finding my way around with this new phone.

The main reason that i got this phone was for the GPS, being clueless of locations especially those in PJ, it would be of great help to have some guidance if i did not do my research on the place i wanted to go. It can sometimes be such a hassle to ask others and what makes things worse is that i have not much info on the landmarks there and would be fully dependent on the person i ask for those clues to find the place.

With most of my friends owning a high tech gadget cum phone, i would like to join the group as well albeit not being too knowledgeable in this field. Well this is something which can be picked up so not much worries there.

I think i will need quite some time before i am able to fully grasp what i can or cannot do with this new phone :) For the time being, i am totally dependent on the people who own these kind of gadgets to guide me XD

What is the price of happiness?

Although i always try my best to please everyone but there is only so much you can do which are within your power. I have always not been able to financially provide my family properly but yesterday i did get some reward :) Smiles on everyone's face

The cost though may not be too high nor was it low either, 6.1k to put a smile on everyone does seem to be worth it :)

A lot more needs to be spent before the house is furnished to better living conditions. All in good time i suppose, can't be rushing to get what you don't like.

梁文音 - 愛一直存在

Since i have very little time listening to radio as i only travel a very short distance by car to the LRT station, it is quite rare that you get to listen to songs that you like, or rather be introduced to songs which you have not heard before which is to your liking. This morning, on my drive to work, this song was aired and i was lost in my mind translating the meaning of it that i almost forgot that i was driving.

那天我揚起帆　
想看看未知的海
心裡很多話想說說不出來　
雖然我臉上看不出來

天空一樣蔚藍　卻換了多少雲彩
那時的你讓我幸福百分百　
是否為我等待

我知道我的愛一直都會存在
沒有你淚停不下來
你知道我依賴多不想 Say Goodbye
我痛說不出來

我知道我的愛一直都會存在
沒有你快樂都停擺
某一天我期待和你笑的燦爛
回頭看愛　都在

站在你的門外　我決心不在徘徊
心裡很多話想說　說不出來　
但我想你一定都明白

時間過的好快
想念卻不曾更改
現在的你是否幸福百分百　
我應該怎麼猜

我知道我的愛一直都會存在
沒有你淚停不下來
你知道我依賴多不想 Say Goodbye
我痛說不出來

我知道我的愛一直都會存在
沒有你快樂都停擺
某一天我期待和你笑的燦爛
回頭看愛都在

我知道我的愛一直都會存在
沒有你淚停不下來
你知道我依賴多不想 Say Goodbye
我痛說不出來

我知道我的愛一直都會存在
沒有你快樂都停擺
某一天我期待和你笑的燦爛
回頭看愛都在

愛一直存在

The DJ claims that this is one of the most sung song in karaokes now :p

Age, time, wealth, and energy correlation

Heard this on the radio while i was stuck in a traffic jam.

A young person have time and energy but not wealth

A middle aged person have wealth and energy but not time

An old aged person have time and wealth but not energy

I find this true for most of the general population. :)

Join the Pact with Mika

Another invite to drink for free session :D Ironically, the theme is to "Never drink and drive". Being a KL person, you cannot get around much without driving. So obviously we drove to the event and will of course consume alcohol before driving home :p

My first time visit to Quattro's Autumn club, the much hyped in place but i do not really see what the hype is all about. Its quite cramped like Sanctuary. Tables are put closely together to maximize the number of guests leaving little room to maneuver not to mention shake a bit of body.

A familiar face was seated on the next table in the form of an old friend. Never in my dreams did i thought we would meet in this kind of place. A sight for sore eyes nonetheless. Chatted up to allow the times to catch up and updates in our current life while waiting for Mika to arrive.

Quattro's Autumn Club
Small talk interview
Took this while Mika had a handshake with my friend
Mika's supercar where he brings lucky winners on a ride
Interesting slogan where the drinks (Johnny Walker whiskies) were free flow XD

The place got even more boring after Mika left. So uncharacteristically we left at around 10+ pm. My friend, the driver had at least 5 cups of Johnny Walkers and he drove me home, so much for "Never drink and drive" XD

Should have been the day but it was not to be.

Stumbled into a future plan and failed miserably.

Blew up in my face and scarred for life.

Is it solace or have my confidence shattered?

A ghostly stare seeking for answers in the late insomniac nights

The end is nowhere in sight ...

7 hours on weekdays and 5 hours on weekends

No comprende? :) When i was younger, i did not like to go to sleep. With youth, i have boundless energy and that helped me go on and on and on. Unlike most of my friends, i do not take evening naps. I feel that time was wasted just by lying around and doing nothing. Playing or watching television is much better than sleeping. Perhaps that is where i gained most of my knowledge, knowledge some may find boring or useless to them but it fascinates me a lot. Paleontology, astronomy, English language etc.

As i aged, i found that its not so much that my body requires the nightly recharge but instead its my mind. And from those programs, i learned that dreaming while sleeping will deprive your brain from rest because its still working in displaying the dream to you. So you might end up in the morning as tired as the night before when you went to sleep.

For many years i have been able to sleep without dreaming and wake up revitalized ready for the day. However, in recent years, persistent dreams deprieved me of my much needed rest. Although the dreams are not only about 1 type matter but it is directly related to what was bothering me during my waking hours. Sigh the horror of living through the day's events again when you are sleeping ... albeit a little different in your mind's interpretation.

I always told myself that i really need to get some rest before i burn out. Even when i have taken leave specifically for resting, i did not get the required rest. Although now im getting around 7 hours of sleep on weekdays and 5 hours of sleep on weekends, but since most of the time im dreaming so i don't even have the full sleep times. Everyday waking up looking like a panda, although i don't really yawn all the way through the day but my eyes are hardly 100% open.

Many have claimed that boozing will get your mind off the matter and helps you sleep. Surprisingly, on many boozing occassions, i get even lesser sleep to be fueled by alcohol in my system to go through the next day. My eyes may be red from the lack of sleep but its able to stay as wide as the days when i do not have enough sleep. From my observation, i can get to my bed and KO at around 2am and then to wake up at 5 or 6 am waiting for the sun to rise.

Although its true that i have alot in my mind now which may cause my this lack of sleep situation but hopefully i can get everything resolved soon. Hair also dropping alot, think that i'll be bald by 30 :( Sigh ...
