The Virginia Tech Massacre - The SuperHighway of Internet

Can you imagine when someone told you how fast internet are to spread the News/rumours?
Well, if you can't I won't blame you. I'm too, unable to imagine it, until today...

I'm browsing around the digg.com for some stuff to dugg, I came across this news submitted by hatazi - "Wikipedia Time Lapse - VT Massacre" which link to this video on youtube uploaded by fitzbuhnwallow - "Wikipedia Timelapse - VT Massacre". This video is documenting the Wikipedia article about the massacre for the past 12 hours.
I embeded the video in here, take a look at it. Prepared to be amazed by the wonder of new generation internet communication technonogy...

Stupid, no use, cheap driving law test center...

Title says it all..............................................................................................
and once again, my dear Malaysian pals, we witness the evidence of why the Ninth Malaysia Plan and Wawasan 20XX will be a major "success"...

I study so *hard* for the past few days, woke up so early some more (about 1200). And what do I get? A system down status at the FRIGGIN test center!

It's is very kind of Jasmine to inform me about it...
Kalau bukan, I dunno go there for wat de lor... tambahan lagi hor, Hurricane visited Tawau today leh, cannot lepak around (except inside the *deformed* Sabindo Plaza...

I only completed 1/6 (approximately) of the journey towards probational driving licence. Yet, I already FULLY understand all the (By the time I typed until here, I received a phone call from my driving instructor that the testing service had been recovered, fck!) vituperation received by my friends during this particular process.

Seriously, the government have to introspect about this problem. It is causing thousands of peoples inconveniences and wasting the Malaysian precious times... (not that my time is worthy but we can't acquire it back, don't we?)


The END...

Give me back my 390 Minutes

From the day I was born, 23rd June, 1989... Today was the most torturous day of my entire 17/18 years of living history on this planet. (codenamed "The Earth")
Why!!!???
Here's why...
I woke up at 6AM, ate breakfast (which is good)... And then go attend that stupid KPP (Kurikulum Pendidikan Pengangkutan, if I'm right)
Meet those staffs there (who is all very friendly).
What I'm not satisfy is the MyCard and fingerprint recognition. It's "FLAWFULL"!!!... It's because that stupid computer and card reader can't detect most of the candidate's MyCard, resulting in a delayed class. Fortunately, there is a new alternative. It's called the smartcard designed solely for the purpose in case someone MyCard have goes wrong. (According the lecturer, it's a very recent introduced card)
However, with this smartcard, that stupid thing still can't detect my "defected" fingerprints, haiz!!! I need to scan it for thousands times to get it recognized. (both sign in and sign out. therefore, I'm always the last person to get scanned, when they saw me, the say "you ar, later 1st"... NGIAO!)

Go on with the lectures... 90% of them is crap, crap and crap! 10%= useful info (such as, all the deadlines, important dates, testing centre and all that...) Not that I'm disrespect for the lecturers, in fact I'm appreciated their effort in wasting their precious times with us. I BLAME THE G*V*RNM*NT! So, the politician actually thinks that 6-7 hours taken from our for listening all this stupid crap may actually reduce traffic accident?... I doubt that...
If they can "reconstruct the syllabus to a more "quality" curriculum, yeah MAYBE it would works...

Until now, I still can't believe that I actually can sustain this kind of emotion torture without committing suicide!!!

That's all the report for my crapped today...
Thanks for not being bored to death.

JPA Accredited Institution

If you saw my post below, "junctions of life" you will know that I was frustrated that I can't find any web or source to determine JPA recognition on some University...
frustrate no more, because kiat just found out this site... http://www.interactive.jpa.gov.my/frmmainiktiraf.asp which listed down every accredited Higher Education Institution...

Friend's first time...:P

Today is a significant day (for my friend, lipken)
Why? because it's the first time....................(I know what you think. No, not the first time to have sex. In fact, he's still a virgin. haha).............................................to encounter a minor car accident.

That's all... thank you...

The junction of life.

As I've finished reading Kiat's blog and writting a comments for him, I came to realize why not I, too write a blog about it?

Here goes my story, (be prepared to bored to death)

A lot of peoples told us before, that sometimes on my age we would meet with the life's toughest choice, a choice that may alter the way my future and the way my family would live in. I never understand this, until recently.
This is the time where teenagers like me facing the complication on which road we should take in this crossed junction. Indeed, I'm now, at the center of this particular "junction".
I know that all of us can and may only choose one of these road. But, which road is the correct path? What way should I take? Am I going to the right direction?

The things is, I'm not sure if I'm going on the right road. I wanna further my studies in Electronic engineering (a career that every tech geeks will associate with) but as PN Chia told me, (and I do realise by my self too) that this field is indeed OVER crowded in Malaysia; too much engineers flooding the market. PN. Chia told us (Kiat and I) that Bio Engineer has a very bright prospect, as our country are currently focusing on Agriculture.

Should I choose my career based on what I like to do, or what the community wants?
Maybe I should change my direction?

There's one more thing bothering me. The recognition of course and education institution by LAN JPA/PSD... Where can I check out that list?
and if you ask, why bother to check. This is my answer: Engineering is a career that need recognition from both of the department, it's crucial!

That's all... I wanna sleep now. I felt not so good, probably getting fever AGAIN!...
