will i am's delayed diary

Merry Christmas guys and gals. Hope you're having enjoying the yuletide season. I can imagine some of you in your sector Christmas boxers out at the Christmas tree eagerly unwrapping your gifts or if you're still in bed, unwrapping your loved one's 'candy cane' nestled in his pesky Santa Claus print undies. With that out of the way, I'm here to announce that my blog is on the blink for a while pending my lappie's chipset kerfuffle. I'm stuck with a Pentium III using Windows Server 2000 and obviously nothing works properly on that anymore. Until I commandeer someone's lappie, things will be a little Silent Night around here. Cheers!

At the very last minute I was roped in to set up the booth, do stock check and sales for the Church's 25th anniversary merchandise. Basically a whole lot of T-shirts. The person in charge who had agreed to the date in the first place was a no show. Did my best to stand in. Thankfully the organizers were kind enough to help seeing that I was alone. However, I couldn't help them clear up because I had a previous appointment-- was meeting Richard Parker in Paradigm Mall. Yup, was watching "Life of Pi" with mum. Was rushing for time, so we munched on a grill sweet potato in the car. But seeing that we had 45 minutes to kill, we shared a ramen at Goku Raku Ramen . Liked their FB page and they gave me a free drink. Also had some scratch card promotion going on, but I did not get the free meal. The movie was quite good

Whatever the case, it was quite refreshing to stroll in a less cramped environment. I even had the chance to test out the spy cam capabilities of my new Galaxy SIII to bring you Market Celebrities(tm). Check out the cute Myanmar vegetable seller with a sweet smile. It's so funny to hear him speak Cantonese. Adds to the appeal. Huhu. Mum had to take care of the baby again, so I had some free time in the morning to meet up ChatMate. Picked him up from his cousin's place and brought him to breakfast in my neighbourhood. Ever the nice guy, he brought me a kilogram of mee kolok again! Pai seh . In return, treated him to char siew-siew yuk wantan noodles. After that, I brought him along for some chores. Had to settle food catering for my sister. Based on a recommendation from my colleague, I went to look for Restoran Home Style in Ta

Laundry Day , swiped from williamnyk on Flickr. On Sunday, I slept in and pulled myself out of bed to do some exercise routines. Doubt I would ever gain a sexy physique with that level of activity, but I gather it's better than nothing. For breakfast, I steamed leftover fish fillet and chicken. Gobbled it down with bread. Homey mode kicked in and I washed my sexy undies and ironed my work clothes after breakfast. Watched "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" while operating the steam iron. Finished two weeks worth of clothes. At 2:00pm, I went out to meet KH. He recommended that I eat Meng Kee 's char siew noodles. Supposedly the famous shop from Tingkat Tong Shin. When the noodles arrived, I thought they forgot the meat! Such a small portion nestled at the edge of the dry noodles. But it was quite good. Don't think it was the same shop I tried in 2006. I remember that shop was more expensive than MYR5.50 and it was distinctly burnt on the outside. I also

Alone time with KH! Just for that three nights, she packed a backpack, a cabin luggage and another small bag for good measure. Are mothers always like that? After dropping mum off, swung over to pick KH up. Amazingly, my boyfriend had woken up at 6:30am to jog. When he got in the car, he was sleepy and tired. However, I had one more chore before I could fill his tummy-- had to send my Iswara Skyline to the mechanic. Long overdue for an oil change and the brake was acting up. Not responsive at times, scared the hell out of me when I tried to slow down approaching the roadside newspaper vendor. :S. We went to Restoran Kah Heong , Subang Jaya for some yummy kampung chicken. Not too impressed with their prawn dumpling hor fun the last time, I tried their curry noodles this time. The more watery variety w

The project that I had been working for in the whole of 2012 was going live. At least the first phase of it. Came in early on Sunday morning to monitor things. The back-end system had been fully-converted the night before and it was time to see it in action. However, since only two branches in Kuala Terengganu were operational, we weren't expecting much business. My ex-GM came to lend his moral support and bring us some egg tarts. Unlucky for me, the application was unavailable due to a problematic web server setting. We found the problem after the IT department performed server hardening a few days back and we thought we had solved it. Apparently not. Did some research on the internet and finally found the proper way to do it. Was cornered by the consultants and in the end I had to write a lengthy accou

Along the way, saw a truck that had crashed head on with the road divider. Taman Puncak Jalil is really the site of many accidents. The roads are winding and the drivers are fast. So Formula One. Unfortunately for us, it rained that morning. Had to use a mini Angry Birds umbrella while navigating the stalls. Small and unwieldly. Perfect for use under those big parasols and crowded conditions. But the rain did affect the turnout. Quite quiet. At around 1:00pm, SK and I went over to Taman Desa Medical Centre to pick up some supporting documents for her to perform her medical insurance claim. She needed the admission form, discharge form and letter from the consultant physician. Before discharging the day before, she failed to get the documents. Very unprofessional behaviour from the staff there. The admission counter asked her to go the war
