IT Terms To Describe Life?

I was browsing my archive when I stumbled upon it. That was then, but it’s different now. Now, it would go something like this:

I have just managed to install GirlFriend 1.4 a few months back. I managed to remove the NobodyLovesMe virus by installing the Charming 2.0 software. This time, its algorithm was superb in eliminating the virus.

With GirlFriend 1.4 installed, I needed Cash 2.5 as well. Cash 1.5 was just not sufficient and would break down during heavy loads from the GirlFriend program and then OS itself. Cash 2.5 runs better but would still break down occasionally.

With an upgraded OS and GirlFriend 1.4 installed, CreditCard 5.0 was also needed to assist Cash 2.5 in handling the load from the OS and GirlFriend 1.4. With credit card 5.0, there is a problem. It creates a buffer to assist Cash 2.5 in its duties, but it will eventually overload Cash 2.5 every once a month. I am currently hoping for Cash 3.5 to be released so that I can reduce the dependability on CreditCard 5.0.

As of writing, swiftmod.exe still cannot be installed. It requires a minimum of Cash 4.5 to be installed if I remembered correctly. I am speculating Cash 4.5 will only be available Spring 2009. Car 2.0 is also needed but will need some proper management on Cash 2.5, otherwise, the OS will be screwed. Oh, and Car 2.0 runs perfectly with GirlFriend 1.4, so no worries about that. So right now, I think I need Car 2.0 and Cash 3.5 to run smoothly.

Damai

Right, not the “peace” kinda damai, but rather the Damai Beach Resort. After staying in KL for quite sometime and also working half dead like nobody’s business, I started missing what nature has to offer. Quite a fair bit of times, I day dreamt in the office, imagining I was on a beach on a cool, breezy evening. So, I didn’t hesitate visiting the beach resort when I was back in Kuching.

Anyway, I went to Damai with my family and Clare. It was a 1 night trip. We got outselves a family suite, which to me is relatively big for the price of RM 380.

I don’t know about you guys but I really like the room environment in a resort. It gives me this comfy feeling and that I don’t have to bother too much about cleaning. Someone will do it for me.

Even the toilet was kinda… errr… nice?

Nice innit? Unfortunately, Murphy must have followed me the other day. The blardy aircond wasn’t functioning and I felt as if I was in a sauna. So much for RM 380.

Oh, and the photo above, that is the room below. Yes, the suite has 2 levels. The level below is basically meant for kids. Even the design of the room itself is kinda childish, but you know what? I kinda like it. Hey, don’t laugh, everyone has a little child in him.

By this time, Clare and friends (oh Cheryl and ehem boy boy) were out playing basketball. Me being the lazy one, didn’t join them. I stayed in the room under the cold aircond instead. The one below was working. Nonetheless, I was still sweating like a pig.

Anyway, back to the room below. Oh, did I mention they even have a TV below and a cute little sofa set for people (kids?) to sit and watch sports cartoons?

I like the room but because the damn aircond above wasn’t functioning, we had to give the reception a call to change rooms. We got ourselves a fairly equivalent room for a change.

So, the new room looks something like the above and the below pictures.

Of course the room is actually much bigger than you’d expect. The photos I published here won’t do justice to the actual size of the room. The new room is actually more conventional but still, it’s equally comfy and luxurious.

And of course, this room has the advantage of a superb view of the beach. Serious, I am not kidding! Have a look for yourself:

It was still kinda hot and all, but I came to my senses. Hey, I didn’t pay RM 380 to be there to stay in the hotel doing nothing. So I gave Clare a call and we both went to the swimming pool with her friends, for a swim. It felt very nice to be swimming after having stopped swimming for ages. One thing, my age is taking its toll and I lost the superb stamina I used to have about 9 years back.

Alas, time past extremely fast. Without me realising, the sun was already setting. We went to the beach earlier on and got back for shower and prepared for dinner. The sunset was extremely beautiful and I couldn’t resist the urge to snap it with the dSLR.

Come dinner time, we were kinda hungry we downed the seafood and unknowingly didn’t take any pictures of the dishes. Sorry folks, no pictures of midin and prawns and crabs, etc. Needless to say, dinner was at Kampung Buntal. We met a bunch of French there. They were looking at us having a good time and greeted us with Bon Appetit as they passed us.

Then, minutes later, I saw the waiter going over to their table with a big plate of FRESH WATER CRABS!!! &*@!^#$*#@!@&^!@$!@#. Blardy hell, they enjoyed better food than we did. LOL!

We went back to the hotel after that, sitting at the lobby. About half an hour later, the same bunch of French came back to the same hotel. I couldn’t help but realised one of them was actually holding the same camera I did.

The way he took his pictures? SO WRONG! I mean, you look into the viewfinder to take pictures on the dSLR. The back LCD doesn’t provide you with a preview of the scene that will be captured. Blardy French didn’t even look into the viewfinder. All he did was set the dSLR to auto mode, and snapped away. It’s like shooting without aiming, if you know what I mean.

The next day, we woke up mid morning, proceeded for breakfast and then played in the cold river stream coming from the mountains. By noon, we were back in the hotel, showering and preparing for checkout.

That’s basically it. This post is getting kinda long. So I’ll end this post with a note that I got myself a sunburn for playing under the not too hot (so I thought?) sun for too long. Damn it, but nonetheless, it was still a great trip after a long long time.

Back to KL

Hmm, I haven’t gotten enough of the small city of Kuching just yet and I have to return to KL already. I haven’t gotten enough of this:

It’s hard to find good places to relax in KL. It’s sucha hectic and busy place to live in. It seems as if my whole life evolves around my work when I am in KL. Hence, I appreciate my return back to Kuching. It lets me enjoy the simple life that I need very much.

The city of Kuching itself is not too busy and I like it. Look at the picture above, isn’t it just lovely? Oh well, just a week or so and I am now back to the city of KL.

Now, I am back to seeing the buildings that I am so used to. Everywhere you go in KL, buildings are all that you see. I am still not in the mood to work. Feels like as if I am still on vacation. Literally, I still am, but I was forced to come back earlier.

Oh well, that’s life, work work work and work. No work no money, and I NEED money!!! Hmmm…

Kuching Today

I am having a great time in Kuching but they say, all good things must come to an end. Yes, a part of it has ended today. My dear had just departed from Kuching not too long ago, back to where ever she should be going. I hate it whenever this happens. I have never liked the feeling of separation and never will.

I always get this nostalgic feeling whenever someone I love leaves me, be it my family member or anyone else dear to me. This one was especially hard because we spent quality time together and went to places together. Thinking of it now makes me feel blue. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed my time with her, it’s just that I now miss the time we spent together. Thanks to my work nature, I was also literally cursing everyday, since day one she was here.

I get nostalgic even before the day of departure. The day of departure itself is hard. I have not much of a mood left in me to enjoy myself. The thought of having to be separated in a matter of hours just gets to me. The airport itself looks nice and enticing if I am just there for the fun of it or if I know I am on my way for a vacation. When it comes to sending people off, the view of the airport itself is just depressing.

As I carried her luggage to the check in counter, all I could think of was to get her checked in first, since it was running a lil late. Thank god, the process was a breeze. Oh, and the airport smelt of salted fish. Now, which smart alec brought salted fish to the airport or was someone smelling like salted fish? HMMMM…

Not wanting anymore of that smell, we proceeded to Eraman for some fresh perfume smell. Yeap, definitely smelt better. She wanted to check on the Ralph Lauren perfume and the sales lady was a bitch.

“Come come, I’ll do it for you, you’ll spoil the spray nozzle later…”

Bitch, I have been using perfume all my life and the nozzles are all the same. You don’t tell me I’ll spoil the nozzle. I’ll slap the living daylight out of you if I could. For the sake of courtesy, I shall not curse in this post but that bitch is really getting on my nerves. The moment she said that, I left the shop immediately.

We lingered around the airport a little, quite reluctant to be separated. I had a lot of things to tell her, but I just couldn’t find words for them. I was practically quiet the few minutes we were lingering at the airport. All I could do was look at her and said how fast time passed and how everything had come to an end so fast.

The I saw the aircraft landing and it was a sign that she should be boarding. Still reluctant to be separated, we sticked around a while longer until the aircraft was parked at the tarmac. After that, as reluctant as I was, I told her it was time to board as I didn’t want her to miss her flight.

I walked her to the departure hall and I gave her a long, tight hug. I was beginning to feel really emotional. I bid her Bon Voyage. I saw her eyes getting teary and my heart was starting to cry as well. I felt very heavy hearted as I looked into her eyes. Trying to remain calm and macho, I refrained from dropping even a single drop of tears. I waved her good bye as she went through the security check and disappeared into the hall. I won’t deny the fact that I felt very emotional the moment she left me, because that would be a complete lie.

I went outside the terminal and watched her queue for boarding, still reluctant to leave the airport. As the plane left the terminal after all passengers boarded and took onto the skies, I walked to my car, still not used to the fact that I am all alone. As I looked at the airport one last time, I drove off with the nostalgic feeling. I now know how it feels when people lose someone they love, forever. It’s a really sad feeling and it is at times like this, I wish I had all the money in the world and almost everything would be virtually possible.

As I am writing this now, I am still feeling really blue and this is the only place I can voice it out. Alas, I am going to retire from the online world for now and get some fresh air to make myself feel better. Take care peepz! Till then, cheers!

Busy

Phheewww… have been extremely busy lately. No time and motivation to update my blog. So just for the sake of updating, YES!!! I’ll be heading back to Kuching this Saturday, you read me people?!?! Yours truly is heading back to Kuching this Saturday! It definitely feels nice to finally be able to return home for a short vacation after quite sometime in the busy city of Kuala Lumpur.

So what do I plan to do when I am back in Kuching? Hmmm… come to think of it, there isn’t much to be done in Kuching. So I’ll have to say, I’d basically be eating to my heart’s content. Ya, I am fat but so what? It’s not like I get to enjoy Kuching delicacies everyday and I am seriously quite sick of mamak food already.

Then, I think I’ll be travelling around places just to get the feel of the small city of Kuching once more. God speed, I hope I really can travel around and PLEASE PLEASE, Murphy’s Law, please stay far far away from me! I can use some peace when I am back in Kuching. As I am writing this, I am praying really hard to god to make sure I have a peaceful vacation back in my hometown.

I think I’ll also be spending quality time with my dear, time permitting. I kinda like it when none Kuchingites visit Kuching. You get to bring them around and probably enjoy places and things you would seldom do. It kinda gets me out of my mundane life.

Now, that was the good part, the bad part is that I just had news that I would probably have to cut short my trip back to Kuching for some working reason. ARRGGHH, why does this always have to happen to me when I am supposed to be having a great time? I have been looking forward to this day and and nearing it, I get news that I would have to cut short my vacation. DAMN IT!

Yes, I can push the remaining vacation to a later time, but I seriously doubt I can take that long a vacation in the future. 3 weeks consecutively? I can go on dreaming! Opppzz, another bla bla bla post from me. Anyway, I am off now and take care peepz! Cheers!
