Maxis and I

I have been using Maxis (012) for 4 maybe 5 years already. The service is either getting bad or worst. But I still like to use Maxis. No reason why. Anyway, I just upgraded to it's limited edition 256k SIM card for a staggering RM65. What do I get? 1000 slots for phonenumbers and 100 slots for SMSs and some other feature that I probably won't use. Is it worth the RM65 to get 750 more slots for phonenumbers and 75 more slots for SMSs?

I think Maxis is just trying to overcome Celcom's 128k SIM card upgrade promo, but know that giving out 256k SIM cards is very expensive promo, so it will try to make it as expensive as possible to get the 256k SIM card to gauge the reaction of it's clients. If the reaction is good, they will roll out the 256k's to the rest of the 012's and 017's fraternity.

Now I need to figure out why I even need 750 more slots for phonenumbers. 75 slots for SMSs isn't really enough for me. :)

Hex - Just another Buffy?

Now here's a refreshing change: a sharp, supernatural drama about teens coming of age made this side (UK) of the Atlantic. But while Hex's basic premise - it's the tale of a slightly awkward but beautiful teenage girl discovering she has special powers - may make it sound like Britain's answer to Buffy, put that notion out of your mind. This is much darker (and sexier), designed to crank up the suspense until you're primed to jump out of your seat.

Source : TvTome.com

This is a new series that I just found out. It is call Hex. Still downloading and haven't watched it yet and no story written yet at Tvtome.com : Hex, but the prospect of another Buffy-LIKE series is just too good a temptation for me to miss it.

我不知道是什麽!

我的心好亂!

I can't do it anymore!........

I can't do it anymore, just can't. I can't pretend that I am "kewl" with everything. NO, everything is not all right!
I can't stand why most people keep on ignoring me, like I am just not there. Like my comments/opinions aren't worth anything to most people. Like me boycotting Spiderman and Spiderman 2 the movie is a "one man insane crusade or something".
Why I am saying that? Here's the multiple/several reasons why!
1. Almost everyone DON'T listen to me.
2. Almost everyone DON'T listen to me.
3. Almost everyone DON'T LISTEN TO ME!
4. (do I have to repeat 1,2,3?)
....

And NO, it's not like "Hey, people don't listen to you because your opinions/comments/suggestion/views are illogical or something like that."
NO, NO AND NO!!! IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!
Most people don't listen to me before I even open my mouth to say anything! It is always like they don't want me to talk a single word even before I even have the chance to talk!. It's all the same treatment from most of my friends, to my family to almost everyone out there. Want an example? "Sure, whatever freak!" Screw you moron!. Like in a forum, my replies/posts/opinions/views/creative thingy usually get by-passed by almost everyone. No one even care to read or even care to reply. I have to ask at least twice before even getting someone to answer. "Hey, dude, other people have life's you know!" Screw you arseho, I have a life too and I understand that. Let me finish ok? "Whatever, dorkhead". Idiot. Anyway, my posts will be left unanswered for days. Don't tell me that (for example)1000 people browsing the forum, all of them somehow "missed" my posts? "Duh". Shut up!.
It's been like that in my real life, and in my virtual life, it's still just the same. Most of the time, I can't even say a single word. Even if I say it, most people just don't really care. No replies, no answers, no nothing. Just the same in real life or in virtual life. I am just a stone on the street, just lying there.Only some people care and I am very glad at least some people care.

"If IE isn't broken, why fix it?".....you have GOT to be kidding me!

Oh wait, I am a firefox fanatic, my views are biased. So, this entry is basically something like "IE is crap, Firefox is good" is it?
NO.

This is about the two entries below this entry.
"If it ain't broken, don't fix it" ......you know, this phrase is TOTAL CRAP

"If it ain't broken, don't fix it" ......you know, this phrase is TOTAL CRAP (II)

Fact that is a very open fact that people just don't want to admit it. "IE is full of holes". Is that a bad thing? To some people, yes, to some people no. To me, I don't care actually. Not as if my computer is full of secrets, since I am only a normal person, living in a normal way. And I meet up with people that subscribes to the "If it ain't broken, don't fix it" policy, and it is NOT about "oh, now I get it, you fail to convert them to Firefoxes, so you are now slandering them over the net.". Oh, give me a break. I just say I hate them, and despise them and wish they rot in hell...blah,blah,blah. And I am just trying to blurt out my feelings towards these type of things. These type of things ain't right in my book. "HA, there you go, that's your problem, not us!". Really? Oh, and using an ancient old forum software is not going to be a problem when you can get something better for the price you are paying?. "Works for me, what do you care?". I pretended not to care, but I just can't. This isn't the old internet anymore. It is the NEW one. GAWD dA M IT! Wake up people! This isn't the Stone Age anymore. Time to get of that arse and do something to improve yourselfs and not stay in the past. I never let the past get in my way, and I think people should do too!
Can't teach an old dog new tricks? ...that's bull......shit.......It's the new dog that needs to learn new tricks, not the old one.

Don't understand what I am talking about? Well, if you know what I mean, you will know what I mean.

Note : All opinions are mine. Have a problem with that, you know where to find me.

"If it ain't broken, don't fix it" ......you know, this phrase is TOTAL CRAP (II)

Just to add, I not only hate these kind of people that believes in "If it ain't broken, don't fix it" thingy, I also despise them.

Call me anything you want, I don't care. I just hate and despise people who believes in "if it ain't broken, don't fix it" thingy.

"If it ain't broken, don't fix it" ......you know, this phrase is TOTAL CRAP.

I have often listen/read about people saying "If it ain't broken, don't fix it" phrase. And I even know some people out there in real life and in the web that always follow that phrase right down to the letter. You know, I HATE these kind of people. They are the ones that thinks "if everything is all right, why fix it?". OH GAWD, please wake up. It is not about fixing things, it is about IMPROVEMENTS. It is about NEW FEATURES. It is about trying out NEW THINGS. Nothing is perfect, but things can improve to either nearly perfect or just better than it usually does.

And yeah, I know. Improvements doesn't means it is good. I agree. But without improvements? Is that good too?

And the cracks begins....

Episode 4 of Season 5 of Gilmore Girls puts up more questions than answers.

Rory and Dean are together again. DUH.

Lolerai and Luke are showing signs of "cracks in a relationship". (I TOLD YOU SO!)

And something about Rory and Dean that I just can't quite figure it out yet. Is Rory back with Dean because she wants to have sex with him? or it is the other way around? Couldn't quite figure that out.

Well, nothing more to talk about this episode except that Lane told Zack she likes him. And I think a little of all hell breaks loose(I think).

Anyway, 2 more episodes to that pregnant episode and I can't wait to know who is pregnant.

Gundam here, Gundam there, Gundam everywhere....

Ok, maybe there isn't Gundam everywhere. Not in Malaysian TV. Although there are shops with models of Gundam throughout Malaysia.

Anyway, I was wondering why Malaysia won't show Gundam on TV. Well, being a Gundam Fanatic I am, I can tell you why. Most of the Gundam TV series are NOT FOR CHILDREN AGE 17 and below. Most of the Gundam TV series have to be rated 18SG and also censored by the notorious Censorship Board from Hell of Malaysia. So, since censoring will make the storyline skipped too much, you won't see Gundam in Malaysian TV anytime soon. However, you can still buy them at the "pirate" VCD/DVD shops that also sells animes. Or if you have broadband and have a hueg harddisk space, then go download them.

Frankly, I don't know why Gundams have a hueg impact on people in Japan and now in the USA, but it is certainly the Gundam mecha's themselves that is the attraction followed by the characters and the storylines.

As for me, I just like the mechas. My favourite are all the main Gundams for each series (almost anyways).
ν Gundam ( "ν" pronounced as "nu") - pilot by the Legendary Amuro Ray
Zeta Gundam - pilot by Kamille Bidan
Gundam Double Zeta - pilot by Judau Ashta
V2 Gundam - pilot by Uso Evin
Wing Gundam Zero - pilot by Heero Yuy
DX Gundam Double X - pilot by Garrod Ran
∀ Gundam ( "∀" pronounced as "Turn A") - pilot by Loran Cehack aka Laura Rolla (And yes, he is a cross dresser for a reason). ;)

Haven't seen Gundam Seed yet, so not sure about the Freedom Gundam - pilot by Kira Yamato

Actually, I just like the Gundams, the storylines are not of interests.

Best weapon I like is Twin Satellite Canons on the DX Gundam Double X. (Pity it only works if Tiffa Adill is there with Garrod and there is a fullmoon)

Second best weapon I like is Wing Gundam Zero Buster Rifle.

ν Gundam fin funnels are third best.


By the way, you can get to play all these by playing the PS1 game of Super Robot Wars Alpha and Alpha Gaiden. In fact, you can play most of the Gundams in any Robot Wars series game. ;)

Heroes don't die, they fade away........



I am really deeply saddened by the death of a true Hero, Christopher "Superman" Reeves. Even though he was paralyzed from the neck down because he fell down from a horse, he never gave up. He never gave up! He was fighting to get back up. He was and still is an inspiration to handicapped people. He showed the world that people with handicap can still make a differences. He is the "True Superhero". He truly deserve the title of "Man of Steel".

May you rest in peace Superman. You will always be my Hero!

"So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable.If we can conquer outer space, we can conquer inner space, too."
~Christopher Reeve~

Grissom! There is something wrong with Sara.

Last season of CSI, we see Sara getting into trouble. DUI (Driving Under Influence)(Alcohol of course!).

This season started off with on a good note, but episode 2 is showing some bad "feeling" at what is going to happen to Sara.

Yup, it's speculation time again. I am speculating that Sara is going to get into trouble or cause Grissom some trouble. Or she is going to turn bad or something. Ok, maybe turning bad is a bit far-fetch, but the possibility is there. Why am I speculating that? Well, maybe because it is a couple of scene at the end of episode two that is very disturbing. It shows Sara watching some family videos (evidence from the case that they are investigating). And from Sara's face expression, it looks as if the videos unlocked some "old memories". And we all know "old memories" are sometime very dangerous!

Earlier in the episode, Sara told Grissom that she does not have a drinking problem. Grissom replied saying he is a concerned. Concerned about what wasn't really clear. From my point of view, Grissom wasn't concern about Sara's drinking problem, it was something else.

Well, let's hope this speculative scenario about Sara doesn't really happen. It would be very bad if it does. I am crossing my finger that the spark between Warrick and Cat gets more attention than Sara's problem. ;) (hmmm, that doesn't make any sense anyway).... ;)

Grissom! We REALLY have a problem.

It's just episode 2 of Season 5 of CSI and a very disturbing scene was shown at the end of episode 2.

It's Sara. Call it a storyline feeling or something, but I do think before or near the end of this season, we are going to see Sara getting or making trouble for Grissom.

Why? Well, she looks like she got some "old memories" unlock when looking at some family videos(it was evidence from a case they are investigating). And from my point of view, the only conclusion I can give is : Grissom! We have a problem.

What if God was one of us?

What if God was one of us?


If God had a name, what would it be
And would you call it to His face
If you were faced with Him in all His glory
What would you ask if you had just one question
Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah


What if God was one of us
Just a stranger on the bus, trying to make his way home.


If God had a face, what would it look like
And would you want to see


Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Luke + Lolerai = The Whole Stars Hollow Can't handle them!

Ok, actually it was the town mayor that can't handle their relationship. Taylor is/was/trying or whatever he was doing to try to discourage Luke and Lolerai getting together in a town hall meeting. In the end, Luke stood up and blast everyone and Taylor finally had to shut up. This is episode 3 of Season 5 of Gilmore Girls.

Lolerai's parents Emily and Richard Gilmore are separated.....by the pool...as Lolerai said it in episode 1. How is that? Well, Emily is living in the main house while Richard is living in the pool house. So, they are only "SEPARATED" by the swimming pool! What a joke it was.

Well, now the speculative section from me. Rory and Dean is coming or going? We know Rory had sex with Dean twice already. In this episode 3, Rory went to find Dean. No price for guessing what they are going to do again.

And the "scary" part is, I got hold of the title for episode 6 which is -> Norman Mailer, I am pregnant.

Ok, LET'S START SPECULATING! What is the meaning of that title? Does it mean Rory is going to find out she is pregnant?
OR
It is just Dean's wife Lindsay that is pregnant?
OR
It is just a title that the producer's put out so that the fans will get excited about this season? marketing strategy?

My speculation is.......(most likely to happen)
Rory or Lindsay will be pregnant.

my second speculation is....(highly unlikely to happen)
Lolerai getting pregnant.

Well, there is 3 more episodes to go before we will know what does the title for Episode 6 means. So, until then, Happy Speculating! :)

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE ABOVE ARE ALL SPECULATIVE AND DOESN"T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE REAL STORYLINE OF THE SHOW.

CSI : New York vs Kevin Hill

CSI : New York didn't disappoint me this time. Season 1 Episode 2 was better...WAY better than episode 1. It wasn't blurry and it was neat and complete!

However, new series Kevin Hill stole the show for me. It's another lawyer's series, and it's good. :)

Still, CSI:New York was over hype. I rather watch CSI or CSI Miami. I just don't like the dark atmosphere of New York city.(No offense). 70% of the time, CSI : New York looks like a black and white tv series from the yester-years. How gloomy is New York actually after 9/11? If that's the case(as portrait by CSI:New York), I did say screw the terrorists. I hope they burn in hell for what they did on 9/11.


Kevin Hill stars Taye Diggs ("Chicago") as a 28-year-old, self-made, hotshot entertainment lawyer in New York City with the ultimate bachelor life -- a high-power job, plenty of pretty ladies and enough money to buy whatever he wants. Through all of his exploits, he is joined by his two buddies, the charming and witty Dame (Jon Seda, "Bad Boys II"). But, Kevin's whole life turns upside down when he's left to raise the six-month-old daughter of his cousin, who unexpectedly passed away.




Believe me, Kevin Hill is one good new series. Just hope it will go on to beat the crap out of The Practice (oh yeah, I forgot, The Practice ended.)

Well, looks like there is life after the Buffy/Angel Era. And it looks great too. :)
