My Ranting Ground
(ver. Rikku)
I'm on leave tomorow and I'm watching S.W.A.T tonite! Wheeee
Meanwhile in the bat cave.. My office laa.. Everything seems to be normal.. But apparently Azlan has taken a week off. No idea where or why. All I know is that if I hadn't had a casual conversation with Faridul this morning I would not have known either.
I know that this office is small and that I should know alot of things or everything.. but how am I suppose to know if they don't tell me anything?
What if some guy had called for Azlan?? I would have passed them the wrong message! Grr
ps: That was written in the morning. Its past lunch now and I am in a beeg beeg hurry. Unorganized Hisyam just dropped a ton of work on my lap and I gotta finish it asap if I'm gonna make it home on time.
Of all days it had to be a Thursday as well.
THURSDAY||14.08.03||2.30 PM
Having time looking for a topic this morning..
Fabian suggest that I talk about the Blaster worm or MSBlast or whatever it is. But i can't be bothered. Instead I shall direct you to Nina's blog where she has written about it and the solution to it! Go Nina!
Suspect that my work PC was also infected with is but I have no way of knowing. Having problems patching it though. *sigh*
Am also hungry now even though its onli 11.50am. Well since I threw up my breakfast its no suprise that I am hungry.
Yes yes I threw up. No big deal really. I had milo and 2 eggs for breakfast at nearby mamak..threw up half of it on the roadside and the other half in office toilet. I didn't manage to make it up the first time and the 2nd time I held it in my mouth....rather gross..
This is the 2nd time I've thrown up after eating there.. *sigh* My immune system going down? Too much clean and good food?
Its a pity because service there is ok and I like the way they cook Maggi there. *another sigh*
Actually after I threw up I felt like crap and was wondering if I could report sick. Food poisoning and all.. But I didn't. I'm so nice :p I bet I could have though! So why didn't I?
ps: My back pain is still here. I'm slightly worried.

There is definately something wrong with the PC at my office.
I have 2 folders in my computer. A 'Yu San' folder that keeps all work related stuff and a 'YS' folder which is not shared on the network. That folder keeps all my stuff including wallpapers, mp3s, and downloaded software such as Winamp and ICQ.
Before I left for lunch I restarted my PC. When I came back I tried to launch Winamp but it couldn't find the c:YS/Winamp folder... Then my PC restarted itself.. O-kay.. After it had done that I discovered that everything in my YS folder was missing...
I am freaked...
Luckily because of the formatting last week I had a copy of the folder in the other PC in the office.. Lost some minor stuff but am very very freaked. Must talk to Hisyam when he gets back. Hopefully he will understand and not think that it is my fault?
So I'm going to start backing up my work from my 'Yu San' folder into the other PC on a regular basis. I'm thinking either everyday or at least every other day..
*siiigh*
Oh, I also found out today that the ASTRO in my office was down since yesterday because we have not paid our bill. ^_^; Whats going on??
I'm feeling kinda lame talking about this right now.. My 'problems' are SO trival.
ps: Ryuu, yar different picture everyday. I'm running out of nice ones though.. oh well. Was fun while it lasted!

If it was my brother being anal or being a dick then I wouldn't care but it turns out that I'm the only one who thinks differently in my house.
Let me explain.
Streamyx has been down in my house for about a week now and I have been miserable because I have not been able to YPP with Tan. So since yesterday was Tan's last day of work he offered to call them for me to see what was going on.
Because he was the one doing the talking he gave them his handphone number and they said they'd pay a visit to my hse within the next 24-48 hours.
I was hoping that they'd come today but I'm at work, my brother is at college and my parents are outstation and will only be back this evening (I don't know what time). So Tan and I thought that it would be a good idea for me to pass him the house keys so that he could let the Streamyx people in. Hes been in my house and looked at the pc before so he knows where everything is.
So I tell my brother this last night and he decides that no he doesn't want to do this and wants to wait for my parents. I push for it and he says "If anything happens its your responsibility"
Because of this Tan decides that he doesn't want to come over. Now this gets me angry/frustrated because who will the streamyx people call to arrange a time? My mother REFUSES to give out her handphone number and no one is at home today.
Sure they could come tomorow or the day after...but I'm just angry because they can't actually call anyone to confirm a time. Call the house there might be no one at home. If I set a time for tomorow my mother could get angry because she had planned to do something else..
So I give a call to my father because I had hoped that he would be more reasonable than my brother.. But I was suprised. He was set against the idea of Tan coming over as well.
Why?
I don't understand my family anymore. *sigh* Initially I thought it was just my brother who had that kind of 'wrong' thinking but as it turns out there is something from with me.
It was my thinking. It was me.
*sigh*
For Haz: A funny passage on last week's Amazing Race.
Cue Shark music and the funniest scene I have ever seen are on TAR: Jon walks through the water while Kelly frantically waves and bangs on the glass. You can see in Jon’s eyes what he is thinking: “Stop…banging…on…the…glass…you…stupid…cow.”
It gets better: Reichen is walking along when right up behind him comes a shark. This shot couldn’t have gone better if they were drawing it for a Looney Tunes cartoon. Reichen, with gigantic shark behind him, starts waving his arms around. Chip freaks out, pointing to the shark. Reichen sees it and…right there…pees his scuba pants on national TV.
YPP Update
I now have a captain's hat! Its white with a red..bobble?? (lol!) and a yellow lining. To go with it I'm still shopping for a pair of pants. What I do have now though is my long red skirt and frilly white shirt. I look Cool! heh.
And if I wear my wide hat with the skirt and take off my shoes I can be a senorita! *winks*
I've also created a new character for Tan's gang. Santioned Insanity is our flag. Its gonna be COOL!
My new character is called Sunshine (Sunny and San were taken *sad face*) and she has black tresses. Shes gonna be so pretty. *sqeee* Must refrain from spending money on clothing though and focus on getting more poe through trading.
I've already decided that she is going to wear yellow and orange coloured clothing. In fact I'd already bought a laurel for her using Strawberi's money. Its going to look so pretty with the corset..
Anyway I am a Lady of the SI and a Quartermaster on the crew SI. Flag and Crew are different. Soon we all hope to have our own crews under the same SI flag. I was thinking of naming my crew WaiSeeSee.
Tan made fun of it though :p Peh. But we'll see :)
TUESDAY||12.08.03||10.37 AM
Had back pains on Saturday.. Was rather horrible. Couldn't even bend properly to pick up and put on my socks but I dealt with it.
I'm not sure if it was caused by my brand new oh so firm bed or me doing my sit ups wrongly on Friday...
So anyway it got better by Sunday after a good night's rest but I think I killed it again by going out with the girls. I played Pool and Archery and carried a heavy book around and walking alot... It was a good thing that we didn't actually manage to bowl.
Didn't do much on Saturday. Just hung around Tan's house playing Yohoho! Puzzle Pirates. Later Adrian dropped by and we belanja-ed him Swensens because his birthday was on Sunday. After that we went to the cybercafe and later the mamak where Radin joined us.
Nothing really memorable I think.. Except that I saw Christy (Adrian's gf) in red instead of black! That girl is pretty and cute but she is always always dressed in black.
Sunday was much better. I woke up late tho and it was a good thing that Tan called or I would have overslept.
Went out to Summit with Tan and Radin to meet up with the YCCians, TJ, Fabian, JQ, Hani and Juli. PoorJQ had a sore throat tho. But TJ looked so HOT!
Lil, Nina and Haz couldn't come =( I wanted so much to talk to Haz about The Amazing Race 4 too. Peh. Damn Chip and Reichen. They are so stupidly lucky.
*growls*
But anyway, we all had lunch at Mandys (a pretty good fake dave deli) where it was a bit of a sqeeze but seemed alright anyway.
Pool was great. I had 4 games. 1v1 with TJ which I won. Yippe!! Me and Tan vs TJ and Radin. I think they won.. And then 2 girls vs guys which they won. We were alot closer in the 2nd game tho.
I only got to do my 'back shot' once but I fluffled it. so malu :( And ya gotta be careful when playing with Radin. His balls are constantly flying off the table!!
After the pool game we wanted to go bowling but they were having some tourny so no lanes were free. Instead we broke up.. The guys, TJ and I headed of to the arcade. I wanted to watch Tan and Radin play the 'pushing' game (I forget the name) but they feared that they would break the machine so they didn't play.
Fabian and I then spent RM 4 each on Time Crisis 2. We actually went quite far! Rather impressed with ourselves. Even if we did spend RM 4 to get there. We're getting further and further! who knows, one day we might actually beat the game!! :)
But at the end of the game my arms were kinda dead.. The gun is heavy......
Straight after that we went to play Archery... I have NO IDEA where I'm aiming.. But it was fun anyway. Legolas makes it look easy.. *swoon*
We were going to join the rest at San Frans but TJ and I got distracted by Bubble tea so we had a drink there instead. ^_^ Yuuummy.... I haven't had pearl in so long.. *sigh* I think I use to have a cup a day or something like that..
Eventually we made it to San Frans but JQ was nice enough to go with me to look at boots for a while. Found 1 I liked but didn't have another size to try. Found 1 I was ok with but it was either too small or too big. Argh. This boot business is tough.
Radin, Tan and I left the gang around 5.15pm to see a movie. Before I left I poked Fabian a few times. Its so fun to see him squirm :p
We saw Heroic Duo the movie with Leon Lai and Ekin Cheng. T'was nice! Nothing too fancy but enjoyable. I definately liked the story line and concept. What irked me was the character's imortality :p
I mean, the guy jumps of a friggin bridge without even diving properly and he is expected to survive that?!?
And at the end of the film everyone was being shot but bullets seemed to have no effect! This guy gets shot in the shoulder and was still able to fire several shotgun and Desert Eagle rounds. What the heck happened to recoil?
There was some typical chinese humour of course. :) I like!
The movie also showcased several Nokia phones as well as their features. That was blatantly obvious. Nokia BAD. Sony Ericsson GOOD.
That was basically my day. Rather long and painful at the end but I'd do it again next week!! Cuddling up to TJ and Hani veeery nice. Yum. *licks lips*
S.W.A.T. coming out this weekend! I MUST remember to book tickets!! Lil you're watching with me right??
I've also got a funny story to tell about something that happened this morning but I guess this entry has been long enough as is. Weekend entry.. you guys know the drill kan?
So lastly: I just bought Sherman's Laggon 1991 to 2001 Greatest Hits and Near Misses yesterday. I luv it. So damn funny. heh.
Sherman: You're in a bad mood. Whats the matter with you?
Megan: Nothing.
Sherman: Is it something I said?
Megan: No.
Sherman: Is it something I didn't say?
Megan: No.
Sherman: Is it something I didn't do?
Megan: No.
*Megan continues to look pissed and Sherman looks scared*
Sherman: Is it something I said in casual reference to something I did when the thing I did shouldn't have been done, or at least done differently with more concern for your feelings?
Megan: Maybe
Sherman: I knew it.
Women. Men. Pah!
ps: Stupid bosses. I just got another call for Hisyam. Apaprently something needs to be handed up by today. He has had 2 reminders already and its still not done and obviously he is still not in. Typical.
