A Year in Retrospect - My 2008
27/12/08
2008 has been a rather busy year for me mainly due to my decision to further my study at the Master’s level. For me, It was a good and timely decision as apart from getting immerised into the world of academics and research, I’ve opened up my horizon on a lot of things, thanks to [...]
Xunlei - Thunder 5.8.8.653 Portable Green English Edition with No Ads by HeHeHunter
Ok, this is a quick note on the latest great job done by Hehehunter. Now, we all know how well Xun Lei or Thunder 5 works on Malaysian servers (no thanks to the fair usage policy by TMnet and other ISP that reduced the speed of other P2P client). So thanks to Hehehunter, he has come up with the latest update on the English version of Xun Lei or Thunder version 5.8.8.653, which is now PORTABLE. No installation is needed (just copy and paste the program directory) and you can keep it in your protable drive as a useful and reliable “download friend”. Plus, it has no annoying ads!
The Joy of Learning “Engrish”
My earlier post prompted me to do a so-called sequel to the fun side of learning English. With its status as the lingua franca of the world, you’ll be amazed just how “diversified” the language is now. You have Singlish, Manglish and of course the ever so popular Engrish made popular by our good old friends in Japan. Haha. I made a selection of real pictures showing some usage of “Engrish” for your entertainment. We should be glad Manglish is not that confusing. :p

A Family Forever
It’s been a while since i last wrote a poem. It was last night during family CNY reunion dinner that I suddenly got an inspiration to write one. So here goes:
After a long absense
After months of waiting
It’s time for your presence
It’s time for celebrating
A warm welcome
A how do you do
Words of kindness
And comfort too
A [...]
Nadai Nama Nama
This is a poem with no name,
Because from a broken heart it came,
Words and thoughts, left unsaid,
Deeds and things, left undid.
We come and go,
placing ourselves outside
The hearts and lives others.
They try and try,
but still we run and hide.
Why is it that we hold out
on those who [...]
Hypocrites
Listen to me - they’re not all bad,
In fact some are very nice.
I’m sorry if you think that
They are all as cold as ice.
A narrow-minded outlook
Is all you have on life.
They don’t go about with
Bible in one hand and in
The other one a knife.
Hypocrisy will burn all else
(and that it may pollute).
All else tries to [...]
