Sometimes, people just want to be left alone, even if they are the extremely extrovert type.

The Hannibal Second Screen App Experience on AXN-Asia

I have been seeing the advertisements for Hannibal from the recent weeks’ “The Voice” till I could memorized some of the words. Although this is way too much ads, I must admit they also served to pique my interest. So I found myself faithfully sitting in front of the TV watching the first episode of HannibalAPERITIF” earlier this week.

How to fix your low Skype sound on Windows 7

For months I have been struggling with low Skype voice / sound / volume when people messaged me. Note that this is not the same as the volume for Skype call, which one can easily tune. I tried adjusting from the volume icon – it didn’t work. I tried adjusting from the control panel – it didn’t work either. I tried Googling it and the advice from the net – none of it worked either!

But I did gain knowledge in adjusting the volume of the “audio setting” in Skype’s Options. So I tweaked the speakers volume a little and twiddled my thumb to see if it worked… Ta dang!!! It worked like a charm!!! Give it a try and tell me if it worked for you too!

Watergym @SS4, Petaling Jaya

I came to know about the Watergym – the first ever in Malaysia – via a small article featured in TimeOut magazine. So I decided to check it out and drag Leox along with me. :)

The watergym is situated in SS4, the residential area right after Kelana Jaya station beside LDP. If you are working in KL/PJ area, you know that traffic on LDP is an absolute nightmare during rush hour. It took me about 1.5 hair-pulling hours to reach the place from Damanasara Heights.

“Where’s the joy in being prideful?”, she asked.

“None.”, she answered.

2013 New Year Resolutions

Finally – the Maya nonsense is over and done with, and the world gets to enjoy a whole new Millennia ahead of it without any more of the Armageddon-type failed prophecies! (hmm… or are there any more?!)

So with every new year comes New Year Resolutions. Whether or not they are being fulfilled are not important, as I believe making New Year Resolutions implied the one is having the thoughts and looking forward to a better life and a better year.

I have one last year, that is to enjoy my 2012. Well, I did go slightly overboard on diving/vacation trips which resulted in a very flat purse and blank bank account.. And somehow somewhere along the line manage to get myself a nice and sweet man. hohoho~ ^^

Malware Infected

I’M SO GLAD TO HAVE YOU BACK~~!!!

My poor website has been infected by Malware… or so Google claimed. A search site actually sent me notification couple weeks ago but I ignored it, thinking it was spam. Then when I actually wanted to access my site I found out that it was really malware infected and I panicked…!

At first, I thought I have to pass through lots of stupid hoops to get it fixed, so I decided to try the easiest one – Just bypass the warning, get into the wp-admin site, updated the wordpress plugin and cross my fingers that this is sufficient. Then I went to the Google webmaster site and clicked the ‘review site’ button to beg them for another review… and Ta-Dang!!!! Just as easy as that my site’s malware is resolved. *PHEW* What a great relief! It’s really good to have you back! *muarks*

 

the cacophony

The needs. The wants. The demands.

The obligations. The expectations. The supposition.

The noise, the noise, THE NOISE! 

has drown everything else,

and overstretched .

Can we all have some peace and quiet, please.

Rockmelt VS Chrome

I started looking into an alternative for Google Chrome because it started to… what’s the correct word to use here?… Failed, maybe…? In any case, it has became very laggy and my imo.im just simply refused to function. Don’t get me wrong – I LOVE Chrome. But this pissed me off to no end ‘cos as a self-proclaimed internet connection addict, this just would NOT do (It’s OK if nobody talks to me on chat, but I HAVE to be connected. Get it?).

So, after several trials and errors, I’ve finally decided on Rockmelt. See, I’m also kind of addicted to social media thus the combo of Facebook AND Chrome seems to be a godsend to me!

Not to say there isn’t room for improvement. First, I used imo.im and hootsuite on both my laptop and iPhone. Combined with RockMelt? It’s a cacophony of social media updates / notifications that will sooner than later drove me crazy. Sorry imo.im, I have to disable you first as I have not the time to figure out how to disable features in RockMelt.

Just to share with you my thoughts on other browsers, and in order of preferences: Continue Reading →

Foodie: Porto Romano @TTDI

Went there yesterday for dinner. It was drizzling lightly with the few regular patrons there, added on the light music, Porto Romano had a very romantic and relaxing feel to it. Perfect for couples that are looking for a quiet place to dine and chat.

The Value of Friendship

They say, you are a total sum of your friends. That is to say that the characters of your friends are a reflection of your own characters.

Let’s just be clear. There are many types of “friends” available out there – activities buddies, party folks, acquaintance, business partners, close friends, and the Best Friend Forever (BFF). One can have many of all the above except BFF. The quantity of BFFs one has very much dependent on the characters of oneself.

What are the values of friendship, specifically BFFs, then, you ask. Continue Reading →

Diving and iPhone

I was innocently chillin’ at a dive centre with shore dive front (something like Sipadan Water Village… if you’ve been there), where suddenly I dropped my iPhone into the sea!!!

Here’s something you need to know about me – My phone is my life.

Naturally, all things efficient and effective excite and arouse me. As in… arouse my interest… (What were you thinking?) Continue Reading →

Confuzzled Dream

I had a nap and I dreamt about you… Doing all sorts of inappropriate stuff.

Then I dreamt about being caught in the boat with you and got dreched in huge body of water.

Then I dreamt about having dinner with you. Across the table, there was this Japanese looking dude who smiled at me broadly and introduced himself as Mao and asked me if I remembered him. I squinted at him and then was instantly startled: “Are you not the same guy who was in my dream yesterday?!?!”.

He beamed.

I freaked.

Confuzzled, confuzzled dream.

I dreamed about you

I dreamed about you yesterday, you know. I was elected as a town mayor (probably too much 4sq), and my friends were all celebrating with me at a cozy little restaurant on top of a small hill where I spotted you and pretended that I didn’t see you. But you saw me later, and walked up to me and sat beside me and said ‘Hi, how have you been?” and smiled at me. I smiled at you too and we had a little chat before saying our goodbyes. How amiable. How civilized. For that I wish it were true in real life.
