As usual, I spend the night by killing the time with browsing the internet, looking for any new things, or seeing old things and check out whether they have been updated or not (thing is a variable, and can be anything from website, software, blog, product, friendster profile, facelink, faceparty etc)

I have this Netscape 7 installed on my PC, which I haven’t laid my mouse cursor on it for so long since I’m actively using Firefox now for my surfing needs. No fear of it installing any malicious active-x without you knowing it, tab browsing, popup blocker, lightweight, fast. What else do you want.

So since this netscape entry in my start menu has probably has a spider web all over it, why not checking out their website to see how this rather old fella doing. So here I go, visiting http://www.netscape.com/

After scrolling down more than halfway to the bottom of the website, there’s a very small link there (and i repeat VERY SMALL LINK) to Netscape 8.0 download page.

Why don’t they feature on the mainpage of http://www.netscape.com/ website with colourful text flashing image flying ad? Why after they spend a lot of software engineer man hours building this new version of netscape, they try hiding it by just having a small link in the website where people can hardly see it? Hhmm. Kinda puzzled me.

Well I’m downloading it at the moment. Let’s give this new version of Netscape a try. Anyway, they have taken all the bug fixes for Firefox applied to this version of Netscape too.

Added at 10:33pm:
A friend of mine, yazid, told me that this version of netscape was out for some times already. Well I guess there’s not much effort from Netscape annoucing this. They can always have a banner advertisement on other webpage for example.

Still excited with the software that I featured in my previous entry, this time I made a panaromic view of Kondo Rakyat, the apartment just behind Pantai Hillpark where I’m staying now.

Arrived home around 8:00pm. Put all my stuffs in the room and went out to my balcony with my digital camera. This picture (or can I say these pictures) was taken about 8:08pm, using infinity focus, and since it was already dark back then, I have to use slow shutter speed for the camera to catch as much light that it can.

Again, just click on the picture to get a bigger view.

Back to my topic. Kondo Rakyat community is very active. Tetiap 2 minggu ada je majlis perkahwinan yg diaorg anjurkan, ceramah agama, mesyuarat agung ahli2 kondo rakyat, mesyuarat UMNO dll. Well, it looks so good right at a first glance.

But the thing that friggin’ annoying is, each and every time they have something on, they are so loud. Speaker diaorg pasang punyalah kuat. Bergema satu kawasan perumahan ni. Pendek kata there’s no peace at all.

Nih cuti sekolah ni, there has been wedding ceremonies every friggin’ day for the past 3 days. So what’s wrong with wedding ceremonies anyway. Again, they all so bising. With people nyanyi karaoke sampai pukul 11 mlm. Arrgghhh.. Tensionn….

And as I’m typing this, diaorg tengah palu kompang tu. Mempelai dah sampai kut. But it just so loud here. I need some peaceee…

Semalam time tgh2 browse internet, aku terjumpa satu software ni, nama dia PTGui yang mana kita boleh ambik gambar sekerat2 dan program ni akan cantumkan utk kita.

Di sebabkan semlm tu dah gulap gelita dan takde panorama yg boleh di ambik, so aku bawak digital camera ke opis utk aku nak try software ni kat opis. Sasaran dia, permandangan melalui tingkap belakang tempat duduk aku.

Inilah dia panorama view daripada tingkap belakang aku tu. My opis ni kat 19th floor, so the view angle is quite luas gaklah.

Click kat image di atas ni to get bigger view. Might be slow for people with slow internet connection. The size of the file is 1.6MB. You have been warned.

Nanti gak korang leh tgk Hotel Citetel tu distort sket. Hehehe. Susah nak ambik gambar kalau tak pakai tripod. Aku rasa dah ada parallex error dah time aku pusing nak ambik the last gambar tu (I take the photos from right to left)

Dari tingkap tu aku leh nampak old klang road dan federal highway menghala ke KL dan Klang. So aku dengan tak rasminya selalu gak menjadi pelapor trafik untuk member2 aku yg duk jauh dari tingkap. What to do.

Sorry gambar kurang clear sket sebab hari ni hujan dari tengahari tadi. So petang ni mendung semacam jek.

Hhhm. Berjerubu gak belah kl tu yer walaupun baru lepas hujan sampai KLCC pun samar2 jer nampak dari sini.

You complain about the quality of the pirated DVD you just purchased. “What, RM10 for DVD5?! Aiyah, boss … sound no good, cheaperlah …”

You’re willing to consume sambal petai and durian and gladly suffer the bloating and wind-breaking incidents.

You’re exceedingly polite to the Mat Sallehs but you slag your own kind. “Hello, sir. Why don’t you sit here, it?s got the best view of the city skyline.” But, “Aunty-ah, your table is over there next to the kitchen.”

You order Maggi goreng and fried chicken, complain about how oily the food is, and then proceed to finish it anyway.

You love to talk about food. You’re already thinking about what to have for dinner while eating lunch. “I’m stuffed. What shall we have for dinner?”

You dive into a communal-style meal the moment the dish lands on the table only to hesitate at the last morsel of food on the serving dish. There are two possible explanations for this: the first is the pai seh (embarrassed) factor, while the other is the myth that the person who eats the last piece will be a spinster.

You hit the accelerator the moment the first drop of rain hits your windshield. “Alamak, it’s going to rain. Sure traffic jam one. I’d better drive faster.”

You seize the opportunity to make a U-turn anywhere … especially where there is a sign telling you not to. Well, so long as the cops aren’t in sight.

You feel a burning desire to send text messages and even have the gall to give your friend a blow-by-blow account of the movie to your friend on the handphone ? during the screening of the movie. “Okay, now that girl Lizzie is impersonating an Italian singer; she so doesn?t look Italian …”

You forsake your loved ones for the all-important four letter-word: S-A-L-E. “Sorry, mum, I can’t take you to Aunt Mary?s because I have to go to MidValley before the crowd.” You?re also more than happy to be part of the insane traffic jam that forms around malls during weekends and sale periods.

Reality shows Akademi Fantasia and Malaysian Idol dictate your social life. “What, no TV at the mamak? Count me out ? I’m staying home. Rinie needs my support.”

You pepper every sentence with lah. “No-lah, I can’t see you today-lah. I have to study-lah. You know-lah, the prison warden aka mak is watching me like a hawk”

You fail to function normally without your daily dose of teh tarik and nasi lemak.

You have owned at least one Proton in your lifetime. Cheap, cheap. That is until you start to make enough dough to buy that Honda you’ve been salivating over.

You slow down at an accident site to take down the car number plate, but won’t step out of your car to help ? the victim could be a robber!

You’d rather park your car along the main road outside the mall, where there’s a yellow line, rather than pay RM1 to park inside where there are adequate bays.

You plead, bat your eyelids and relate a sob story to the officer at the town council office to let you off the hook (or reduce the amount considerably) for the fine you incurred when you parked your car on the double line.

You make an appointment for 10am and conveniently show up a half hour late ? Malaysian time, what …

You pop open the wet tissue packet at the Chinese restaurant by squeezing the trapped air to the top of the packet before proceeding to smash your fist into it. The louder the pop the better.

You greet your friend / neighbor / acquaintance on the street with “How are things?” or “Have you eaten?” or better yet, by stating the obvious: “Went to market ah?”

Ramlee burger is the “piece de resistance” of your growing-up-years cuisine.

You catch all major televised events at the mamak.

You have roughly six meals a day (breakfast, mid-morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner and supper). Then there’s the snacking ? keropok ikan, pisang goreng, muruku, jam tarts and the like.

You get the whole family dressed to the nines, jump into the car and head for the minister’s open house ? and ask for styrofoam boxes and plastic bags to tar pau food.

Your accent and language style vary according to the race of the person you are conversing with.

You’ve got a friendly disposition. Smiles are abundant and your “Apa khabar?” is warm and sincere.

You exclaim loudly how expensive everything is, even though the items may in fact be going for a steal. “Wah! So expensive, ah? Hak sei ngor (Scare me to death)!”

You dig deep into your pockets to contribute to the latest appeal for donations in the newspapers.

You “dis” our country all the time, but as soon as something good happens (like winning the Thomas Cup), you morph into a proud Malaysian.

You never travel abroad without a bottle of chilli sauce, or sachets which you can sneak into restaurants.

You’re proud to be Malaysian – and you pass these jokes on to all your Malaysian friends!

OMG. How I want this badly.

It will really be a great companion to my iPod. Just connect to the iPod, and it will play the song. Touch it, and it will change its feeling.

Watch at it in action here

Received this VIP Invitation to Asean Communications and Multimedia Expo & Forum 2005 (ACM2005) kat Mines Resort City dari 6-9 September ni.

Isk. Silap plak dia eja nama aku kat name tag tu. Ada ke Mohd Umran. Tapi aku tak tahu leh pegi ke tak. Cam 95% boss aku tak kasik kut. Deadlines berlambak sekarang ni. Seperti Yazid cakap kat aku, “padan muka kau”. Hak Hak

Semlm aku temankan member aku Seremban ambik mak dia bawak KL. So sesampai di sana, adalah hidangan menanti. Time tgh lapar2 tu, apa lagi, melantaklah.

But, there is something funny with the taste of telur goreng. Tapi sebab lapar, gasak je after that I realize something moving dlm pinggan yg ada telur goreng tu. Rasa nak termuntah time tu sebab aku tgh byknya ulat2 kat dlm tu. Member aku tu lagilah siap ada ulat2 termasuk dlm pinggan nasik dia. Gabra akak ipar member aku tu. Dia tersilap ambik cam ner tah. Telur tu dah 2 hari lamanya.

So mlmnya sampai KL, aku duk cirit birit 3 kali. Member aku tu lagilah sampai takleh duk tidur mlm. Alkisahnya dia termakan lebih telur tu. Aku makan sikit je.

So pagi tadi bangun tido, aku rasa ok je. Cam biasa2. So aku pegilah opis. Tapi as the day goes by, temperature badan aku meningkat dan aku start feel dizzy. So terus pegi klinik & dapat MC. Yeah. Balik rumah, makan ubat dah membongkang dari pukul 2 petang tadi sampai kul 8pm tadi.

Bangun tido, terus check email opis. Mak oi. Berlambak2. Tapi takper. Aku dah buat Out Of Office Assistance. So diaorg tahulah aku MC siang tadi. Tapi dlm byk2 email tu, rasa tertarik plak kat satu email yg member aku forward, pasal Mawi World Movie. Di bawah ni aku sharekan utk tatapan sumer

Padamu ku utuskan
Kalimah penuh perasaan
Untuk ku menyatakan
Apa yang tersirat di hatiku

Dalam tidak kau sedari
Kau hanya menyintai ku
Sedang ku mencuba
Melangkah pergi dari hidupmu

Kau yang sering membahagiakan
Di kala ku kesedihan
Tak mungkin dapat ku lupakan

Ku hanya ingin kau mengerti
Apa yang ku miliki
Cuma harapan yang silam

Korus:
Lupakanlah semua kenangan yang bisa buat kau bersedih
Sampai di sini saja cinta yang dipertahankan
Anggaplah ini suratan satu perpisahan
Maafkan andainya hatimu terluka
