后青春期的诗

你没有看错，是的，我写中文。已经很久没写了，忽然想写中文，应该是因为看了九把刀的《后青春期的诗》。

我昨天跟友人去了唱K，唱完过后就逛广场，已经很久没逛广场了。我并不是很喜欢逛广场的人，尤其是周末或假期。我不喜欢跟别人争的感觉，太不好受了。既然已经在那边，大众书局成了我不会错过的地方。进入大众书局是因为想买2009运程的书给我妈妈看，其实，自己也想看看啦。我有时候也是蛮迷信的。在看着其他的书的同时，看到了九把刀的《后青春期的诗》，毫不犹豫的从书架上拿了下来。

回家，看了一点，太累了，所以就睡个小觉。从吃点心回来，已经12点多，丝毫没有像睡的感觉，就继续读下去。不读则以，一读不可收拾，直接把它看完了。读的时候，感触蛮多的。


《后青春期的诗》是讲述一群好友，在18岁的那年，一起写下了3个梦想，放进了水壶里，把它深埋在地低下，10年后，再回来一起挖出来看，到底梦想实现了没。故事情节有点似成相似的感觉，可是，它就是那么的贴近我们的生活。我真的很好奇，有没有人真的这样做了呢？我，没有。可是，我真的想。

我一直都很重视朋友。我觉得，能成为朋友，真的不简单。能成为好朋友，更不容易。如果，人生有几个死党可以跟你一起度过的话，那，死也死的瞑目了吧。哈哈，好像太夸了。可是，我就是这种人。现在回想起来，18岁的时候，我做了些什么？已经没有什么印象了。只记得，18岁，还在念中五，忙着应付考试，好像没有什么令人难忘的事。有时候，真的想有一些惊天动地的事情，可以让我回味。遗憾的，好像没有。

出来工作后，以前的朋友已经很难相聚在一起。更何况，我的上班时间和普通的上班族不一样。有时候，朋友叫我出去，我很想，可是我不能。我很希望他们能理解，毕竟，理论上来说，已经是多年的朋友，应该会体谅。可是，他们会有一个观念，会说，每次你都不能的。哎~~~ 我真的无语。久而久之，渐渐疏远了。

之前，和一位朋友为了一些小事争吵，没说话超过了半年。虽然，偶尔也有MSN，可是，已经没有以前般无所不谈。近期，跟他在MSN闲聊时，我提起了这件事。我们都一致认为，我们比女孩子还糟糕。为了一点点的事，而不说话，多孩子气啊！想到就好笑，哈哈哈！！！我们各自其实都在等对方开始说话。幸好，我把我们的友情挽回了。我很庆幸我踏出了第一步。

讲了这么多，其实，我想说的是，如果你有一群好友的话，要好好珍惜彼此之间的友情，别让它轻易的毁掉了。

《后青春期的诗》值得一看。

People Nowadays

People nowadays are rude! They are not having a basic manner, which is saying thank you. The story goes like this......

Before I went into the lift, I always go to my mail box to have a look. To my surprise, there is a bunch of keys inserted into one of the mailbox. Due to too kind, I took the key and think of passing them back to the owner. I scared later others took it.

I went to that floor and rang the door bell. Someone came out and I passed the keys to him. I told him they keys were left in the mail box. The guy just make an "oh" voice, took it, and close the door!

Is it so hard to say thank you? This is the very basic manner. Furthermore, I helped to return a whole bunch of keys! No idea why people nowadays are like that. Do you have any idea?

Web Development

For people who like to design an own website but don't know how to do it, they can try it out by using Microsoft Front Page. Microsoft Front Page is the easiest program for creating a website for beginners. You can either choose to use the design template or even write your own code by using the html code. For those who are expert in web design, normally they will choose to use the html code instead. They can change and edit the content accordingly and will not limit by the design limitation.

For companies who want to have their company website, most of the time they will ask for the web development services from professional web design company. They just need to inform the web design company on their needs, concepts and requirements for the website. The web design team will then figure out the design and develop for them. They will keep changing until the company satisfy with the outcome. As you can see, some company website will have a flash animation on the home page. This is one of the way to market the company. The web design team will continue to maintain and upgrade the website for the company, if it is needed.

Kitchen

Kitchen is the most important place for my mum. She cooks everyday and she spends most of the time in the kitchen. That is why, when I bought the new house and doing the renovation, most of the kitchen stuffs need to get her approval. I let her to decide what she wants and what she needs. In that case, she will not bug me in the future, since it is her choice. :)

I seldom use the kitchen. Most of the time, I will only go to the kitchen to get water, food and cook instant noodle. Yes, I am good at cooking instant noodle. Besides, I am also good at fried rice.

New Year is coming soon and I still left one kitchen appliances that I need, The Stand Mixer. I need it for baking the butter cookies. With the mixer, I can try on baking cakes as well.

Wo Qi Dai from Zhang Yu Sheng 张雨生 - 我期待

I am not sure have you listened to this song before or not. If you are not, let me introduce this good song to you. I first listened to this song through youtube, on one of the school singing competition. The person who sang this song is a singer now. He sang really well.



After that, I start to search for the song with the original singer, of course. One of my friend also like this song very much. She listened to the one Zhang Yu Sheng duet wuth Tao Jin Ying. She keeps on listening and become our song during the karaoke. We want to challenge it since it is not easy to sing. :)

However, I still prefer the solo version.

Gift Selection

Have you ever fall into a situation that you have totally no idea on what to buy as a gift to your friend, no matter is on a Birthday, Annivesary or even on Valentines Day? I alawys face this problem since I am not so good at deciding on what to buy. Most of the time, I will try to consult my other friends to ask for opinion. Sometimes, they really give me a good one. But some other time, they asked me to think myself.

If you are the same as me, one of the gift that I can suggest to you is a watch. Watch is a very common gift that you can give to either your loved ones, family members or even good friends. It's not an easy task to select a watch since there are so many types and design. The Watchery is the best place for you to get watches online. It can also be your one stop station for your holiday gift guide.


The Watchery is having a mega holiday sales currently with up tp 80% discount storewide. There is one deal of the day which is very attractive. The list price is $9,630 and the price from The Watchery is $2,495. Now, it is having 90% off and the price is only $963! You are saving $8,667 in total! What a great deal. To check out more watches, remember to visit thewatchery.com.

Team Building

I just back from my department team building in Genting 2 days back. It was a fun trip and I think everyone is enjoying. This is the very first time I have the chance to go out of Penang to have a team building with all my team members. It is hard for us to have this kind of activities since we are in a support environment.

After this team building, we planned to go to somewhere else for the coming week. Factories are shutting down. This is the reason why we can go outing again together. I am really looking forward to the outing we are going to have in almost 10 days time!

Religion Chatting

If you want to talk about religion but there is no one available for you, you can actually try to search the religion chat room online and chat about it. Christian Chat Room gives you the opportunity and chance to talk about the stuff you like with all the Chrisian members. Besides, it is a best way to make new friends and meet others who have the same interest like you do.

Company Annual Dinner

I went to company annual dinner last Friday. This year, the food was much better if compare to previous years. Hahaha, food again!!

Same as last year, a booth was setting up for us to take the photos. Here are some of them.



The photos were nicely taken! They are so sharp! Good skill!

Boost Up Your Car

I bought a second hand car 5 years back. It is the local car. During the first year, it was OK, nothing wrong with it. Just after one year, the problems started to appear. I think I have spent a lot just for repairing. Fortunately, I managed to pay all the installment by last month. Now, I can think of changing a car.

As many people know, local car is not so powerful than import cars like Honda or Toyota. It caused me hard time when going up the hill. Maybe I can try to install the supercharger into it and make it more powerful.

Superchargerpros.com offers a wide selection of super charger to suit your needs, including pontiac supercharger, mercedes supercharger and so on. You can get a great pricing and customer service from them. For any questions, just call the toll free number or email to their customer support team.

Penang Has It All

I never knew that there is a video about Penang, from the Penang Government. My friend who works in Singapore told me about it. He highly recommended this video. He said he missed Penang after watching it.

Since he is promoting the video, I clicked the link he gave and watched the video. To my surprise, the video was really good. It showed Penang is a wonderful place for vacations.

Watch the video yourself! It is nicely taken. Good job and Thumbs Up!


All penangites, must support ya!!!

Into Business

Just after graduating from University and starting to work, I always think of having own business. I knew that working under someone will not let me earn much. The salary is fix. I need to wait for my year end performance review, only can know whether I can get an increment or not. If I am not hardworking enough, the increment will be less or maybe none! Like this year, the economy starts to going down, many of the companies have announced that, there will be no increment and bonus for their employees. Furthermore, by year end, those companies will shutdown for more than 10 days. All the employees will be forced to take annual leaves during these shutdown period. I still never get any news on the increment but there are rumors saying that our company will be the same as others.

Since working for others are not secure, why not I work for myself. I think it will be a good idea. For someone, they will think that doing a business is very risky. They prefer to work for others and every month get the salary. One of my friend quit his job and start to do his own business. He is now the co-owner for a restaurant. Although the new business needs more time to take care, it is still better if compare to work under other company. He told me he wants to open a restaurant in my hometown after 2-3 years time. He needs some modal and experience before he can start a new one.

To start a business nowadays is not so difficult if compare to last time. You can easily get the business loans from many banks without any major requirements. If you really think of owning a business, it is better to make a move, rather than sit there and think non stop, without taking any action.

Not Concentrate

I just back from my company annual dinner. Just after the dinner finished, I left. I thought I can reach home early but it turn out not to be. I fetched one of my friend since she live in the same block as I do. She is my colleague.

We are talking and thinking of ways to go back to our houise, after our department team building next week. We talked until I just followed the straight road, forgot to follow another lane. Just after I realized, I asked her, "Are we on the bridge now?" OH MY!!! We were on the bridge! I cannot have a U turn. I need to drive until the end of the bridge, make a turn and pay the toll. :(

I told her, we need to go buy 4D tomorrow. She suggested to buy my car number in reverse. Hahaha. Who wants to buy? Get my car number from me!! :)

Anyway, we managed to reach home safely, this is the most important, agree?

Personal relationships and privacy

Do not assume that you know everything there is to know about a writer simply because you read their weblog on a regular basis. Any judgments you make will be based on the information they have provided you about themselves, which is probably vague, incomplete or embellished. Whatever opinion you form on them as people, or their life as a whole, is probably best kept to yourself. Remember, you are the reader. An obvious exception to this would be if someone were asking for advice or opinions.

Never contact the writer for more details on events or personal information than what they have already provided on the site. Chances are if the information you seek isn’t readily available, they have found it too personal or inappropriate to share. If you are close to the person they will eventually tell you privately, so intrusive questions are not necessary, just leave it alone. If you are meant to know, you will.

If you have a real life relationship with the writer, remember that communication is very important. View weblogs as online journals, no less sacred than a diary hidden between the mattresses. First of all let them know thatyou read their site, especially if they did not tell you personally.

If they do not want you reading it, or suddenly stop posting entries, ask them why and if necessary, stop going to the site. It is important that as a friend, relative, co-worker or whatever you may be to the writer, that your presence at their weblog not impede their ability to express themselves. Remember this is their outlet. They may not want you to read certain things they might write about you or others you care about, in order to spare your feelings, avoid drama or maintain their privacy. You should respect this and immediately stop going to the site, and never relay any information you gather at their site to others who might use it against them.

If someone writes about you and you don’t appreciate it, approach them about it. Try to remain calm and polite. Explain that you are entitled to your privacy as well. There are many compromises that can be reached from using vague nicknames to protect your anonymity, or not mentioning you at all. If you are upset because they are writing negative things about you, be reasonable, try to see if there is a way to resolve the issues and mend your relationship with the writer. If that doesn’t seem to be possible, stop going to the website. They will eventually get bored and move on.

Ex-friends, lovers and estranged family members who have been cut out of the writer’s life should refrain from reading their journal. If the relationship has ended, there is no reason you should get daily updates on the person’s life. If you simply can’t help yourself, do it quietly, and never repeat whatyou read or use it to hurt the writer.

Feedback and initiating contact

If they have a guest book, sign it. Compliments will always be graciously accepted and appreciated. Criticisms and reproaches are fine if you have a problem with something, but try to remain constructive and not be an asshole. No one is forcing you to give out your opinions, so if you don’t have anything remotely positive to say, it may be best to keep quiet.

When contacting a person for the first time, have a clue. If they have a detailed biography and personal information that describes their life from the day they were born, chances are they won’t appreciate you wasting their time asking them how old they are or where they live. Writers put a lot of thought and time into their sites, so take the time to read the information they provide you with before you ask for more.

Never assume a writer owes you any response. They may receive from a few to hundreds of messages per day. Some will gladly write back immediately, others will never reply. Try not to take it personally, becausechances are it has more to do with their schedule than anything else. If you get upset and nasty about feeling rejected, you will probably ruin any chances you had of befriending the person.

Don’t delude yourself into thinking that you will be as important to the writer as he/she is to you. Remember, you are peering in on their life, sharing their thoughts, and though they may become quite special to you, you remain a mystery to them. If they are cold or unreceptive to your advances, keep in mind that you are a stranger to them at this point, and they may or may not want to keep it that way. It’s entirely their choice.

Don’t be a psycho stalker.

You shouldn’t contact people with messenger services unless they list their handles on their website. If you got it from someone else, forget you ever had it, they probably meant to keep it somewhat private.

A writer has the right to stop writing at any time for any reason they see fit, and at no point must they justify or explain these reasons to you or any of their readers. It’s their weblog, they can do with it as they please.

Offensive language and materials

The internet is a place that encourages free and creative expression, and as in any environment where people are given this freedom, conflict may arise. If an author uses language or materials that offend you, leave. Contacting the person or their isp, demanding they remove the content or change their ways is absurd because you are viewing their content of your own free will by visiting their site. Simply stop going there and you won’t have to see whatever it is you don’t like about the site. An obvious exception to this would be if someone were providing illegal materials, in which case it would be appropriate to complain to their ISP orcontact authorities.

Copyright and courtesy

Never ask someone to make you a layout, to help with your site or show you how to do a certain script or graphic effect that they have on their site, unless they specifically offer their help. There are plenty of tutorials available to help you, just use a search engine to find what you need.

Never use anything off a person’s site, be it writing, images or html code, unless they say otherwise. People are very attached to their work and don’t usually respond well when others help themselves to it. Copyright is protected by law and in effect the minute something is created, whether the author has a © notice or not. There are online tools where you can learn about copyright laws like What is Copyright? and Redistribution In Graphics Has To Stop.

The Storm Warriors

Since the last one, Stomrriders, it has been years for me waiting for this sequal. Previosuly, there are news saying that Aaron Kwok is no longer wants to act as Cloud anymore. But, after so many years, he decided to play this classic role once again. So happy about it.


Can't wait for this movie! It will only release by next year December! It seems like I still need to wait. However, it will be worth waiting and is a must watch for me.

Cannot think of where to go

It's hard for me to think of where to go. All the places almost the same. The worst thing is, I will get sweat and become sticky just when I step out of the door. Oh My.... The weather here was so unpredictable. Like yesterday, it rained so heavily in the afternoon. Luckily, that time I have come back from the mall.

I was so lazy to go out. some people will think, since you are here, you should go out whole day. But, I am different. Sometimes, I rather to stay at home. Then, some other people will comment, then you better stay in Penang and not coming over. Stay in Penang's house is the same. Haha, you are right too. Maybe I have come here too often until I make it as my relaxation place.

Need to go back soon and I still haven't got the thing I want! :(

Harley Davidson

It is so cool to ride on a Harley Davidson. I always dream of it when I was a kid, since I was influenced by the movie I watched. If you own a harley and need some of the parts accessories, try to search it from RealHog.com. You definitely can get what you need there. With the purchase over $100, you will get free shipping on the items you bought.

Meeting up with AhhJohn

I managed to meet up AhhJohn finally. He looks so young and in fact, he is very young! He is not looks like working in a construction. Hahahaha.

From his blog, you will think that he is quite an old person, since he normally writes very "deep" blog post. He is very nice and we chat a lot too.

We just met up for around 3 hours. It's fun and nice for meeting him. Hope to meet him in future. But he is busy, he works from Monday to Saturday for long hours.
