Missing for 6 Month…

Somehow i can’t believe it that six month fly away just like that and the last time of me blogging was the time when i need to figure out how to start my DMP a.k.a. Double Module Project a.k.a. Dead Meat Project. Finally i’m done with the project development and just left four more days to complete my final exam then i can unofficially say i’m graduate as a college student.

Somehow i don’t feel like it’s the end but more like a beginning of life for me… It’s the time where much tougher challenge i would have to face so basically all i can say now is don’t give a shit and bring it on!’

Basically after four days i will be free for a while which it is the best time for me to settle down and seriously do what i wanted and if i got time then i will blog out some review which i got for the past six month as for these few days… Study….

258 DVD Full of Anime

I not sure about other anime collector but for me this is surely a lot! Imagine 258 DVD full of anime in that box which has over one terabyte of anime video in it. Can’t believe that since the first day i had my broadband and downloaded my first anime few years back turn out to be like this hahaha…

I manage to create AniSphere v3.0 a small application that stores all the anime information and properly label and ID each DVD that has been stored in the box. So until now my anime collection still grows as thanks to those hardworking fansub member to translate all the wonderful anime to watch. If only I had the time to learn Japanese language then that would be really interesting as i really admire their culture. The only problem I have is the space to keep all the burned DVD and also sooner or later i would really need to spent hell a lot my money for 1 terabyte hard disk haha…

Project AniSphere v3.0

Project AniSphere v3.0 is a further enhancement from my previous developed application which its primary function is to stored information of my downloaded anime and keeping track of each title that still in progress.

Basically this application has been developed only for personal use but it would be interesting that there is someone interested to use the application I developed. So for now i will start off with the enhancement of AniSphere v2.0 to AniSphere v3.0 with the knowledge of programming that I acquired during completion of my final year project. I will write down more detail during my progress to complete this project.

Movie: War

Jet Li and Jason Statham in the movie War~ It’s always both of them together just like Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker in any movie they do. I didn’t know much about the movie but I expected it will be just full of action sequence and a lot of killing which it happen as i predicted. One thing seriously piss me off is the censorship of the movie which it’s really LAME!!! I was having hard time to understand how the scene goes where all those stupid idiots from the censorship board cut the scene extremely bad~! How on earth can people understand or enjoy the movie when such a little issues such as fuck, WTF, asshole and you know the rest of those foul languages appear in the movie??? It’s hard to explain how is the situation of the censorship but seriously you can never understand how stupid people do their work unless you are stupid like them as well…

Anyway… back to my review for this movie, in term of the story line it shows a good flow even most of the time just shooting, beating, slicing and saying foul language at each other. All I can say it’s unexpected for the ending and i give good credit to the director to come out with this plot but the ending suck~ One thing i don’t understand is one of the scene where Jet Li was praying for a 50mm titanium bullet which it seem like he is praying for the God of Bullet and bless him with the strength to kill more people with just a single bullet… Purely crap if you ask me…

I can say that this movie is just full of twist and turn as what you expected is not what will happen as there is no good and bad, no hero and bad bastard or good ending or bad ending. In other word just see the movie yourself but my suggestion is never to watch the show in Malaysia cinema but get yourself the DVD if you want to watch it in peace.

MapKing 2007

I have been using MapKing 2007 ever since i got my HTC P3300 which it has built-in GPS. Initially i had hard time to understand how it function as the interface is not truly friendly and I don’t understand most of the features that is being displayed. Still, i took some time to read the manual and I was stupid enough to find GPS signal in my room which it’s basically impossible to get any signal. So i ended up done most of the test outside my house and truly I was happy that it actually works.

Basically I’m using MalSing Malaysia map and sad to say that the map don’t even have detail road map within my housing area. Still the most important part is too see the functionality of the software and how accurate is the navigation provided to me when I’m traveling.

MapKing 2007 on my phone took quite some time about 1 minutes to pinpoint and connect on the GPS signal which it’s troublesome if I’m rushing out. During my travel i find that the routing and distance provided is quite accurate but still stupid in a sense where the route recommended sometimes is not logical. Basically I could drive straight and pass under the flyover highway but the route provided by MapKing 2007 directed me to go above the flyover highway which has traffic light and drive back down from the flyover highway…

Various test has been done in different location and i find that the route to Kuala Lumpur is really not reliable at all but maybe is because I’m using MalSing Malaysia map. So i would take some time to acquire different version of map and see the outcome.

In term of battery usage, it’s best to have a car charger while using MapKing 2007 as it require extensive amount of power as i estimated a full charge battery could allow about 3 ~ 4 hour usage. It’s sufficient to be use but considering that it’s my mobile phone i still need to use it for communication purposes which it’s not a good idea if my phone runs out of battery.

The benefit i gain from using this software is knowing more location and it’s much more easy for me to travel to new places that I rarely go but still I would rather rely on my driving instincts as this software is not 100% reliable. I’m going to test out more and it’s still too early to conclude the functionality of this software but at least I’m glad I have one to try out~

Windows Vista Home Premium

I don’t know about most of you when comes to Windows Vista but to me seriously it SUCK! What I’m trying to point out is that the launch of Microsoft newest operating system is just a bunch of security, interface and networking enhancement which basically manipulate every single consumer mind to say "Wow! This is so cool!!!". Forgot to mention I tried Windows Vista Home Premium Edition on Benq Joybook S31VW which the specification listed below:


Processor: Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T5500
RAM: 2GB DDRII (667 mhz)
HDD: 100GB
Chipset: Intel® 945GM
Graphic: Intel® GMA 950
*Further specification can be view at the official website


Basically the developer mention that the operating system could support previous version that has been developed by Microsoft but it’s just full of crap as there is so many updated which needed to be done and the update size is seriously big… Besides that in term of installing third party software poses a lot of compatibility issues. Not to mention gaming… This seriously the things i hate the most as any game i install and play the resolution would change to the worst one..

There is a lot issues which haven’t been mention but this itself already made me decide to roll back to Windows XP. My advice to those who plan to use Windows Vista, use it only for office tools and internet browsing… gaming and programming is surely a big blunder to use when comes to Microsoft Vista operating system…

It has been a while since i got this phone and for your information this model is not DOPOD P800W but HTC P3300. Even its same in term of its design and specification but surely i can tell that the quality is different and mine is not market for Asia.

Basically i got this phone thanks to my sister after winning a tournament. Basically she don’t want to use it as she is planning to get another one which i completely have no idea which one but surely not this. So I’m the owner of this HTC P3300 and it surely took a while to flash the ROM from French to WWE (World Wide English) ROM. Initially this phone is set for Mobile 5 but i always have the habit to check for new updates and found out Mobile 6 already release and the good part is that the official ROM for my phone is already out. So i start on ROM flashing and i got the latest ROM on my phone but… still it wasn’t enough for me.

I continue to search and since I’m a little more experience on flashing custom ROM, I manage to find PDAVIET Rom Black & Blue Edition which surprisingly this guy manage to extract out HTC TouchFlo technology and incorporate it to my pda phone which its code name Artemis. Somehow this ROM have some bugs but sooner or later Tom the person who developed this ROM will get it fixed.

About this phone, what i enjoy the most is the GPS system which i manage to get MapKing and been playing around with it while i travel to few places. Besides that the scroll wheal is useful, camera somehow a little blurry while the finishing touch of the phone durability is better than average. Not forgetting the phone loud speaker is seriously load and the clarity of the speaker while talking on the phone is seriously clear so this is what i truly enjoy this phone.

There is a lot more features i haven’t really try but i got all the time i have to try it out. Cheers!

Graduate

Finally i’m done and all I need to do now is just relax until graduation day which that is so unplanned but what da’ hell man as long i’m graduate! Wohoo!!!

Anyway, this is the best time for me to start planning things and definitly brush up on my programming skills and other things which I will get to that soon… I will try to keep posted on new stuff so for now i really need to write out ‘Things to do…’

Chief Lane Marshal

Finally my work is done~ The 31st Malaysian National and 30th Interstate Championship is over! After eight days of restless work and going for classes, i finally can settle down and focus more on my final year project.

I have been assign to be the Cheif Lane Marshal for the event and the name do sound fancy but seriously it’s one busy task to be responsible… Working in this type of event what most important is team work and as their leader, it’s best for me to understand each of them well and was hoping that i could bring as much lesser problem and comfortable working environment but then again.. there is times where problem will exist and for sure i’m responsible on dealing with the problem happen during the event.

Eight days may sound quite a short period for everyone but for us lane marshal it feels like it’s taking days for the time to pass and each and everyone of us are hoping that the day will be over and can go home rest as much as possible. I myself faced difficulties when i have to focus on my studies and also work at the same time… Seriously i was begging myself to get to bed and have the mindset of doing my assignment in another day but in the end i just virtually glue myself on the seat and do as much i can on the assignment… I’m thankful i manage to survive this heavy duty work so i hope my effort can be put to good use.

This year somehow most of the marshals are doing a job well done as hardly there is problem from them but somehow i ended up having the most problem which it’s actually very personal. I’m very impress on the newly recruited lane marshal as they seem to be hardworking and dedicated to their work as the only thing missing is the experience working on this type of event.

So the upcoming event would be Malaysia Open which which will be on 11 March 2007 but the chances i will be working again is very low as i need to focus more on my studies… So hopefully i can find someone to be the new appointed Cheif Lane Marshal and can do a better job than me… As for now~ i’m seriously dead tired so going to start recovering by SLEEPING!!!!!

Curse of the Bouncing Boobies!

Seriously i don’t know much about the movie as i manage to watch the second half of the show… I basically had things to do so ended up not understand most of the storyline but i realize that almost the entire time there is bouncing boobies!!! Guys would definitely love to watch this movie as their boobies are wrap damn tight and being push up to show some bouncy boobies!!!

Okay~ enough about boobies and go on with the storyline~ As far as i know, the entire royal family is full of scandal and corruption which ended up i prefer watching boobies again!!! Seriously even i manage to just watch second half of the movie i feel there is so much scandal in the family where i know that the king’s second wife have an affair with her step son as in the king’s first wife son and that son have an affair with the king’s first wife daughter but that daughter is from another father which that part i don’t really know why also. Then i realize that Jay Chou is also the son of the royal family had some issue with the King i think and another problem happen and in the end i just look around and waited for the ending and keep thinking its just full of scandals!!! It’s better you all watch it if you don’t understand what I’m trying to bullshit here~ SCANDALS!!!!

MPSJ you seriously SUCK!

Seriously i really damn piss off when i walk back to my car after a tiring day of classes and saw a stupid paper and getting a fine for illegal parking!!! The fact is that i should receive that summon but still it’s not like i want to park there!!! SS15, Subang Jaya is one of the hot zone for massive car parking in that area and Majlis Perbandaran Subang Jaya(MPSJ) would love to take the advantage by regularly call a bunch of idiots to regularly check for cars that didn’t pay or park illegally…

It’s not like we drivers want to break the laws but some will anyway… but i still feel the main problem is MPSJ them self! They already know that hell a lot of cars would be in that area and the only thing that are increasing is the bunch of idiots and tow trucks rounding the area to hunt down unlucky drivers… I still remember right beside my college there is an empty land and were used for regular parking for those who pay monthly fee but ended up that land wasn’t belong to them and MPSJ took action by taking over that piece of land. So basically they could use that land to have more parking space for the benefit of the people or student there but no!!! Those top ranking idiot from MPSJ ended use that land as a Tow Depot!!! So basically the main idea for them is to have more tow truck so they could give more summons!!!

Seriously it’s one stupid idea man… As if this way they can reduce the number of problem happen in that area as more and more people will go there as student would be there everyday for classes and workers will be in the area to work so why can’t they just make that land for more parking space since the number of parking space over there is extremely limited!!!

Student like myself would have to suffer as it’s hard to find parking space and have to park all the way at SS14 and forcefully walk to college for about 10 to 15 minutes but in the end still get that bloody summon! I’m sure they want to develop the area to be better and gaining the ‘Majlis Bandaraya’ status which to gain more money to put in their useless pocket~! and same goes to Shah Alam area which are pathetic for a ‘Majlis Bandaraya’ status but that is another issue to bother…

As far as i know the only thing they want is money and don’t really care about the problem that people face unless something bad happen then only they would pretend to help and then continue suck our money dry as usual. So screw MPSJ and other money sucking useless organization who doesn’t care anything besides them self!

*All this complaining is thanks to the big stupid idiot who issued me the summon and stick it at my car!

Movie: Sinking of Japan

When i first preview this movie, i was thinking this must be one interesting movie to watch~ but in the end it’s just below average due to the storyline and some part of the movie really didn’t make sense.

This movie remind me of amageddon, Deep Impact and Day After Tomorrow but if you do a comparison this movie is seriously out of the chart among this three popular movie. So from what i know this movie is a remake from a very old movie just that now it has much better computer generated effect and quite shocking movie title if you ask me…

Since the movie in japanese so i would rely on the subtitle which it’s so pathetic translation and luckily i understand some of the word they are saying. I often watch anime so i basically know how the flow of the movie goes and for sure their OST(Original Sound Track) is way much nicer than english movie.

One thing i really don’t understand is why the main male actor can travel to different places so fast and without problem when the entire country is SINKING and building are colapsing?!?!??! Seriously totally not logical. Another issue which i really tense up is from such an intense storyline ended up to become a love story~ Well it’s alrite to go into love story scene but still it’s really nonsense when there is a part the main female actor start saying "Make love with me…" and the main male character started to cry and waste a few minutes of my life waiting for what to happen and he say "Sorry i can’t… We already made a promise…"

I was like~ WTF?!?!?!? From such a lovely storyline ended up to some desperate girl who suddenly want to have sex and the guy rejected that offer cause he wanted to go save his country from sinking and allowing her made that promise a come true~!

Well all i can say is the near ending of the movie destroy the entire storyline and it’s best you just imagine Malaysia sinking would be more interesting than Japan~

Samsung Pleomax PKB780B

Most user would just normally get a normal and budget wise keyboard which less than RM20 but for me it’s totally not an option whereby it’s one of the most important input device that i have been using every single day. It’s important for me to get the most comfortable keyboard to use since i will be gaming, doing assignment and giving instruction to my system.

So basically here i got a keyboard which Malaysia will never have as my buddy, Ray help me to get it at Taiwan and seriously i was worried that the chinese character will disturb a little but it seem like its cool as maybe one day i might be able to understand how to type chinese character properly hahaha. Oh i didn’t mention that this keyboard has a chinese character printed on almost every keys. The thing i like about this keyboard is that the smoothness when typing and until now i still haven’t try gaming with it but i assume it would be fun to use.

Other than that it’s also very slim and have most of the useful hotkeys function that i need but too bad they don’t have built-in USB port as that would be very useful for me. I would love to have gaming keyboard but i rather wait for the product to be more mature before buying one~

New Year???

A new year is nothing much to me as it’s just another time to restart my torturing time of the year again~ I always been thinking that a new year can be a good start and make a good changes in my life but somehow it seem like it’s going from bad to worst…

Maybe this is because i’m still having my nightmare over the issue of studies and been hoping to start working soon and be independent on my own life. I’m surely thankful for my parent to support me but i feel that i must do the other way around and to do that is to faster complete my studies, start working while getting a stable and good income to reduce their burden.

I still have interest in bowling as i been bowling for many years now so i was planning once i graduate, i might try out a few international tournament and still wondering weather to change from spinner to hook. If i can’t make it then guess i have to settle with the hard work of a stable job. All this still flying around my mind but eventually the time will come for me to decide. So hopefully this year will be something positive to think about~
