Valentine dedication through www.xes.cx
Recently, I listened to one radio station which has a section that lets listeners dedicate love songs to their love ones. As rightly pointed out by bimbobum, song dedications are romantic. But the chance of one being able to dedicate a song on air is like striking lottery. First, one has to get through the radio station’s busy phone lines, which is almost impossible!
Therefore, I’ve come out with a suggestion. Why not dedicate your song through www.xes.cx? To me, blogs are the newest form of mass media. Their reach is taking the world population by millions.
Since Valentine’s Day is coming, I propose to all readers to email me their dedications. In your dedication, please let me have the following information:
(1) Your Name
(2) The name of the person(s) that you are dedicating the song to
(3) Your Message
(4) The song
On 14.2.2007, I will post an entry publishing all dedications.
For example:-
From: A
To: B
Message: This song is for you, B. (Picture may be inserted here)
Song: Morris Albert – Feelings – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfRrJyMLc-s
As for the song, you can either give me the artist and the title of the song or the link of the song from any websites [e.g. youtube.com]
Few of my friends have already made their booking. 😀
Email me @ or msg me on MSN.
Stress
Lately, my work has been stressing me out. I couldn’t sleep well, I had pimples popping out overnight like mushrooms , lost some weight and I lose my temper easily.
There was one incident where I lost my temper badly. I had to pick Sam up from her place. Before entering into her housing area, I had to go through a guard house. I was stopped at the guard house and one of the guards asked me where I am going.
Me: pick up a friend.
Guard: What is you friend’s address?
Me: Er, lupa (forgot) but it’s over there.
Guard: you go call your friend now for her address
I got pissed off with his tone of his voice and I replied,
Me: TAK PAYAH LA! (NO NEED LA)
There was another car behind me. As such, they ordered me to park on the side on the road to let the car behind me pass.
Instead of stopping, I speeded off and headed Sam’s house. After picking Sam up, a speeding motorcyclist was horning behind me. It was one of the guards I wind down my window and he then started shouting at me. I then shouted back
“SAYA DAH KATA SAYA TAK MAU TUNGGU!!” (I’ve told you that I’m not waiting!”
And then I sped off. Sometimes, although they are doing their job, these guards piss me off beyond belief.
Debt Collection Agencies in Malaysia
Lately, I’ve been receiving numerous letters from one company by the name of Ztrade Sdn Bhd (note: name has been changed). The letters were addressed to one Nian Aik Sdn Bhd and one Chua Choo Lam, both whose address is almost similar to my current address.
Prior to this, I’ve received one letter from the Registrar of Companies regarding Nian Aik Sdn Bhd. I’ve no idea who or what Nian Aik Sdn Bhd and Chua Choo Lam are and as such, I’ve written to the Registrar of Companies explaining that I’ve no idea who these people are.
So, since I’ve been receiving letters addressing to Nian Aik Sdn Bhd, I decided to look at its contents to see whether this Nian Aik Sdn Bhd is causing further problems.

Malaysian Police Station
My work had an interesting twist last week. I had to head to one of the IPDs (Ibu Pejabat Daerah, District Headquarters) in Kuala Lumpur today. I had to meet a certain officer at one building with a few floors. The building is not exactly in good shape, I can almost term it as ‘dilapidating’.
The stairs were badly lit.
The paints were peeling.
Fungus was growing all over the wall.
Rubbish was everywhere.
The offices have no aircon, bloody hot. I almost dozed off.
Ants were running all over the place, too.
But they have cable TV. O____O||
The sight wasn’t pretty, too. I saw a few men in pink “Lock up T-shirts” in handcuffs walking around barefoot.
Pink Lock up T-shirt. I wonder where can I buy one.
One elderly man had his family with him. His family bought him curry rice. The police had to uncuff him so that he could eat his curry rice with his bare hands. Poor guy.
Good news is that some departments of the IPD are moving to one building by the name of Perdana something.
I was told by a Chief Inspector that the new office is hard to find.
Chief Inspector: “One day I sent my boys to find the new office, to see whether they could find the place easily. None of them came back except for 1 who took 3 hours to find the place! And that person told me that it’s hard to find that building.”
The first thing that came up to my mind was, “tiu.. I bet they were happily sitting at the mamak la.”
Of course, this is merely speculation. I heard that our force is underpaid and overworked.
Old Klang Road gang drunken night out @ Breakers 6.1.2007
Him is back from Singapore again hence Yong Lin, Ping, Brisbane James, Hen and I meet up with him at Breakers Hartamas. Him’s girlfriend from Singapore was there as well. Initially Hen and I didn’t want to drink at all. Our plan was to be sober all night. But our plan didn’t materialise. After a bottle of Corona, our night turned in a beer festival.
We then ordered 2 Beer towers, which consist around 2 jugs of beer, for RM104 per piece. We played drinking games and within less than an hour, the 2 beer towers were depleted. However, on the table next to us, lies an unattended beer tower.
The unattended beer tower belongs to one group of people who had a commotion few minutes earlier. One of the guys held a mug of beer and let it fall on to the floor and started scolding profanities to another guy on the same table. It stopped after 2 huge bouncers came to talk to those guys.
My back was facing those guys when the commotion happened.
Him: be careful, those guys are just behind you!
With a Singaporean and an Australian on the table, I said,
“Welcome to Malaysia!”
Anyway, the group left after a while. I conveniently took their unfinished beer tower and transferred it on to our table. Free beer!!
There were 2 girls opposite our table, one quite attractive and another one, not so attractive. One of my friends, L then got hold of the waiter and asked the waiter to ask the girls whether they wanted more drinks, L is buying.
The girls ordered green tea O___o. L then invited them over to our table. Of course, our attention was all on the hot girl. Poor unattractive girl was almost invisible to us.
L was fortunate to bear such low cost. If I were the girl, I would say, “ONE BOTTLE OF BLACK LABEL PLEASE”.
We continued playing drinking games until everyone couldn’t drink anymore. As the 2 girls were leaving, I notice that the hot one had a ring on her fourth finger. I then said to her, “Are you married???”.
She replied, “If I’m married, would I be here?”.
Happy New Year!
