Procrastinating

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow. When will I really focus on studying after so many tomorrows? Oh when there's an exam tomorrow.

Procrastinators -- The leaders of tomorrow.
Procrastinators UNITE... tomorrow.

lol...

Dead

Well.. A dead blog sure is dead.. don't know what more to do with it now.

Too few incentive to make this blog a decent place.

AGAIN

Today got back home, paid a visit to Hobby Search, saw Nendoroid Tainaka Ritsu on restock! I immediately put it on my cart and attempted to checkout, but I have no credit card. I phoned my dad for that, he said he will check on the legitimacy of the site, and then Ritsu got sold out at the very moment I hang up the phone. MISSED THE CHANCE TO GET HER AGAIN! ARGH!! EMO!

Update: Yet another restock at Amiami some hours after HS, but I still missed it. I suddenly found myself fallen asleep just well before the order was opened for about half hour before it ran out of stock again.

These 2 close calls killed my week. It's always like this, camping at these sites hoping for a restock, and when they do I just couldn't make it for whatever stupid reasons, be it I'm having class, pending permission from my dad, or the stupidest of all: fell asleep. Maybe I should just stop collecting these things and use the money saved for proper meals everyday.

*bangs my head on the wall repeatedly*

Beggar?

Back from a deep "evening nap", I was greeted by this fellow in Garena, asking me to create a clan for him.

u selfish........
*left room*

Ok, what's the meaning of all these? This fellow forced me to give him a clan, which I don't want to, and said me selfish for that? First, who on earth are you to force me to give you my clan-creating power? I don't wanna create a clan for myself then I should give it to you?

Second, I appreciate your persistence in wanting to be in a clan so badly. Perhaps you can be a successful salesman in the future for your "thick skin-ness", but not for your "u selfish........" when I go against your will. Remember, you're the beggar to me now. If you're the so-called kind one, can you get yourself to lv25 and then create a clan and offer me into it? I highly doubt that.

It took so much effort to get to lv25, and you expect me to just give my ability to you just like that? Talk before thinking. Did you know that sentence can offend me so much and made me felt so guilty? Fcuken low-life, go get a life dude. This world is neither revolving around you nor me. Don't go around criticizing others when they don't follow your will.

ComicFiesta 2009 @ Sunway Pyramid

1 month late post. Got derailed from my blogging passion already. Anyway this will be a short post about Comic Fiesta 2009, which I went the day after I came back from Genting Highlands.

I got to know about this event 1 week prior to the date when Bill Goh told me about it, inviting pro Jhun together as well. We were reluctant to go at first due to the RM15 entrance fee, but we still went at last. Thanks to Bill for driving us there :)

As this was my first time attending this kind of event, I wasn't really used to the surroundings. It's so much different from PIKOM PC Fairs (obviously), as there were so many normal camera users, DSLR-wielding photographers with intensive flashes (which includes me, except that I'm a complete noob), and of course, the cosplayers. Too bad that I'm still myself: not that daring to ask for permissions to take their photographs. I could only take the advantage when the cosplayers were stopped by other photographers =/

Still, my pictures sucked as I set the wrong white balance. Anyway, if you would like to look at some pictures taken, you can visit my CF album at Facebook, though the excess warm colours had been edited out from these pictures.

One of the things I liked the most in that event was the MCees, dayumm they were just so humourous that made me burst in laughters (and of course everyone else in the event).

Actually, there was a motive for me to go CF 2009. If you hadn't know, the poison by Bill suddenly attacked me and so I got this new hobby of collecting Nendoroids. I'd ordered 4 nendos online at The Figure Mall and since they had a booth there I had to go there to collect my items. Besides I also arrange a meet up with a Lowyat.Net forummer for my Haruhi Suzumiya keychain gashapon sets as well. That was the biggest spending to date, with a total expenditure of RM615 (not including F&B) that day.

We returned home after collecting my items. I will make a mini review of my Nendoroid collection IF I had the time and passion to do it ;)

Lastly, it's new year now. But I'm not happy, because at the 8th day of new year I got a stupid jackpot summon. Not kind of a good way to start a new year eh?

INTI poem

Recently I receive an email from Jojo (XD) on poems for 3 universities/colleges. One of them being INTI. I know these poems have been online for quite some time now and I have read it before. But since I'm a student in ICSJ now I have to say something.

But first there's the INTI poem in case you've never read it before:

At first I love INTI
But INTI loves my money
I ask money from daddy
But daddy asks mummy
Mummy goes to INTI
And find out why INTI's so greedy
The lift always mati
And the guards look like monkey
That's why I started to hate INTI

INTI don't love me
What for I love INTI
All they need is money
Nothing but money, money and money

The lecturers teach like bugs bunny
No wonder they're so lousy
And their faces look so funny
Like Talos the mummy

Futhermore, more more money flows to INTI
But they never plant more trees
All because they want to save money
Make all students feel hot to mati

First I entered INTI I got no kaki
Later I found someone likes to play tai tee
Then I started don't want to study
Here we can find a lot of kaki judi
That's why we must blame INTI

Since I entered INTI I cant see any leng lui lili sexy

Even the lecturers are more pretty
I always want to date them for tea
But I always kejar they always lari

Dr. Lim from SOLLA always lan si
People said his pucuk already mati
Even Viagra also tak boleh jadi
That's why loh people say he is 'cc'

He likes to tell jokes to everybody
But his joke never funny
Sometimes people thinks that his crazy
Dr. Lim so pity

INTI's toilets really smelly
No water no api
Even you haven't pee
You want to lari
Always complain they also say soli soli

Tan yew sing always said his INTI got quality
Instead everyone knows they are lousy
INTI motive just to earn more money
So that they can pay lecturers salary
And INTI share in KLSE can naik lagi
Waterfish like us always press by INTI
Just to tipu more more money

That is all the story about INTI
Which loves money
But after all I still come to INTI
To contribute money


(u r not in INTI?
u r very lucky
coz INTI cant bluff ur money
just cabut n jangan kembali~!!)

Student of INTI
noway to lari
already jadi SuiYee (waterfish)
plz tell everybody
jangan kena tipu lagi
=============================================

I've done some searchings and realised that there is another new poem to counter the previous one:

Izzit you too sien adi with INTI?
Maybe coz you never ever study
Always shake leg and "wah pei si" (digging nose)
24/7 at CC play DOTA or L4D

U say ask money from daddy
daddy ask you ask mommy
at last work so hard to support you already
WHAT U DID?? Yaya write sohai stuff about INTI
you nothing better to do ar really?!

You say INTI lift always mati
you KING KONG ar kenot walk, too heavy?
if INTI guard look like monkey
you look like more like "yat pek si" (a piece o shit)

and so you say "INTI don't love me" (right!)
coz you really "mou yok yi" (cureless)
so no matter how u mati-mati
your results FOREVER E E E!
All they need is money (yes)
Well, thanks to you idiots pay money but never study

The lecturers teach like bugs bunny
Sumore you say they so lousy
MAYBE its because u never ever listen properly
sit behind there talk cock story!

U complain complain INTI no tree
All because they want to save money
YOU LEH? throw rubbish sana-sini
Sit in room play game tak pernah mandi
You don't feel hot oso smelly until mati!

Told you already u only know how to waste money
Parents give u money but you play tai tee
Own self say don't want to study, Blame INTI.
Of coz la you forever kaki judi
Coz you got no life, no job, no money.
WHOLE COLLEGE LIFE WASTED IN INTI!

Since u entered INTI you can't see any leng lui lili sexy
You very lengzhai ar that girls want to see?
Look at ur face oso all want to barf and flee
No wonder you no luck, forever "ta fei ji" (jerking off)

FIRST you say lecturer like bugs bunny
THEN you say u want to date them for tea
U really 1500% gila babi
Hopeless, useless, something problem with your psychology!

Dr. Lim from SOLLA always lan si?
You jealous ar coz he got money drive Benz-si
How you all know his pucuk mati already?
You gay tards got actually see??
I think its YOUR small koochi size that you should worry
Yucks, yerr, bluek, petoooi.... YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE......

Tan Yew Sing always said his INTI got quality
You know but then you don't agree
So its either your parents or you yourself gila babi
You think like that, then WHAT THE F**K you doing in INTI???

INTI motive just to earn more money
OF COZ LAR U THINK BUSINESS IS CHARITY??
IF THEY DON'T PAY LECTURERS, WHO GOING TO TEACH YOU ABC?
you're not a waterfish larh, YOU'RE A BIG DUMB WUSSY!

INTI SHARE IN KLSE can naik lagi
now sumore partner with Laureate group of university
too bad you're no longer here to see
better off without you monkeys here in this community
good that you cabut lari,
I BEG YOU PLEASEEE JANGAN KEMBALI!

students of INTI noway to lari
Coz here too happening with clubs and society
already pay money might as well happy happy.
No need to write stupid things about INTI

If you so good write poems better go be an MC
Don't mess with PROUD INTI students like me
So far come all the way,wa ipoh mali
We all know at the end we still love INTI!

To the fellow who disgraced us all from INTI,
Lets see you beat this rhyme at any angle or degree.
For those of you who agree with me.
God bless you, forward this,
its your call now, I'M OUTTEY!!

Zzz. Speechless. I don't know what made the original author to write negatively about INTI, and I understand why the other author was trying to defend INTI from this attack. However, I'd rather devote my time studying or at least doing something useful other than writing these poems.

Well, this is business anyway.

Is it globally? Or just Malaysians?

Half a semester has gone, I have started to enjoy college life. But for the time period, I have been suffering more from travelling back home with KTM. The magnitude of suffering is greater than that of enjoying. In a nutshell, I'm pissed.

I wonder how do they operate this company? In Economics, the goal of firms are assumed to be maximizing their profit. Well in this case, yeah I agree with it 100%. They are trying to maximize their profit without taking the consumers' feelings into consideration. Taking the Pelabuhan Klang-Sentul route as example, there isn't any close substitutes like LRT to KTM. There are buses, but that would be a little bit troublesome. Anyway, that is not my main concern as this posts wasn't meant to criticize much about KTM, but the passengers.

I always observe 3 kinds of phenomenon while I was waiting for and riding the train, especially Tuesdays and Thursdays, due to classes of these 2 days end relatively late @ 5pm. By the time I reached there it will always be so damn crowded. And of course, with the so-called "Q-System" implemented by KTMB, passengers will have to listen to broadcasts and then line up on one of the coloured(red, blue, green) lines according to the broadcast. It failed. Why? Well, do you ever think that typical Malaysians will give a damn about this? From my observations this far, a portion of the passengers has colour-blindness(no offence). For example, when we are asked to queue up on the green line, I can always see that there are surely some people that queue up on different coloured lines(excluding late-comers, since the frequency of useful broadcasts is only as high as the frequency of the train). Well, I wouldn't be mad at them, because they have health problem what..I never knew that there are so many people in Malaysia have colour-blindness, I felt sorry for them.

And then there are the "smart" ones, in even larger quantities or just the same as colour-blinded people. Ever heard of the story of "The Emperor's New Clothes" or something similar? These "smart" people are able to see "lines" invisible to the "stupid" ones, e.g. me. So in other words, they just line up where ever they see fit a.k.a. cut queue. I'm sure that annoyed the "stupid" ones that lined up properly on the respective lines.

And when the train finally arrives, some bastards behind will just keep on pushing and pushing...well I shouldn't call them bastards, because I would've become an "induced bastard" in this situation and pushing others in order to prevent me from being completely sandwiched. Even if the train is really full, they will still try to squeeze in no matter what. "Who cares? I pushing ma, you pain not me" might be one of their mentalities, or, they are perverted. A tip for all of you, try to get as inside as possible(nowhere near the doors), the doors are the worst ever place to be near with following the above situation given.

There are those so-called polices and a few KTMB personnels supervising the passengers' movement, i.e. call boarding passenger to let disembarking passengers out first. But most of the time they just call passengers to pack up the train until the maximum point. What's the point man? I was expecting that their presence was to prevent queue-cutters.

Little do I know that if the company set up those stacking steel queue bars(I don't know how to describe it lol, imagine those bars that you line up with when you're in a theme park) instead of employing this "Q-System", everything would have been more organized. Anyone seconded on this?

Anyway, I'm most probably going to drive to ICSJ as soon as I got familiar on the way back. So, I can most probably kiss(my @$$, it should be kick) KTM goodbye. But by then, you might see me complaining about traffic jams. Looks like studying there wasn't a nice choice at the first place after all.

Zzz

As expected this Shitmyx connection was screwed up again since Saturday evening. Iam really speechless for their incompetence. Ranting further is futile. Just hope games in Facebooks won't fail me at the meantime.

Finally I applied to study A-Level at INTI Subang, took 4 subjects: Physics, Maths, Chemistry & Economics. This coming Thursday will be the orientation day, don't know what to do by then. But whatever, hope to meet someone there ;p

The course will commence at 4th May, I'll have to do lots of catch-ups as my brain has rusted for idling 4~5 months at home without thinking anything..or prepare to be smoked by my future classmates for forgetting even the basics of Maths.

That's it. I just make the most out of my time to enjoy before getting serious again.

TMNUT did it again!

The deadline of 17th April had passed, and TMNUT once again prove that they are a company of liars. I managed to run a few speedtests, even it's really making me suffer hard. Let's start with our beloved neighbouring country:
Decent speed, which I should have it anyway.

The so-called affected areas:
i) Hong Kong
Just above par with a 56K. o0o

ii) USA
The speed for both of these locations are just around the same with that of Hong Kong, which is typical.
This is an exception, tests done at LA are the fastest among all other USA locations I've tested. But still it didn't help me in any way.

To show that Screamyx is actually fcuked up in everywhere instead of just HK and USA, I've done a test to one of the European countries. My pick was Frankfurt, Germany.That's the coolest figure I got to see! Sub-56K speed and latency exceeding 1k. And the download test actually started 5 minutes after the completion of latency test. WTF? One can only find this kind of shit-like speeds in Malaysia. Again, MALAYSIA BOLEH(LEBIH LAMBAT DARIPADA KURA-KURA)!

Based on the figures, I've formed a conclusion. Screamyx may be the best ISP* in Malaysia ONLY, but the WORST ISP in the entire world! THE BIGGEST JOKE IN THE WORLD EVER. Even their Screamyx website cannot be accessed now. WTF, too scared to face us so you decided to bring down the server together? This one's a big PHAIL. GAGAL.

There's a Chinese speaking "打是疼, 骂是爱", which literally means "hitting and scolding you means loving you". I couldn't agree with it for this situation, as TMNUT Screamyx is just not worthy enough for me (and anyone else) to love it. Why spoil my health on this failed worthless company providing failed services? They are not going to improve anyway. So instead of scolding TMNUT, now I'm going to CURSE and SWEAR upon them, at least this shows my hatred against them. 屌你! o0o

Oh btw, alphabets is a good form to swear. It was an old song, but still nice to listen in this situation:

每天吃饱都要上来这里駡两句. LOL. Oh fcuk, TM..(buffering)..D..(buffering)..yo C..(buffering)..CB..(buffering) *yawns*.

What more can we do instead of swearing? Again, nothing. As I said before, monopolisation = disaster. Let me remind you on this:

WHERE MONOPOLISATION IS THE WAY TO GO!

*ISP = Intranet Service Provider**
**only applicable to Malaysian ISP, Screamyx precisely.

Screamyx kanasai la!

A good picture says a thousand words. In this case, thousands of foul words from me to Tmnut Screamyx.

I could normally finish the downloads of this size within 1 hour, but now, more than 7 hours and still not finished. Look at the speed, it's actually slower than 56K (56K max speed @ 56/8 = 7KB/s). To rub salt on the wound, a 5-minute Youtube clip and cost me 15 minutes before completely buffered, speedtest.net won't bother to load, and most importantly, RS & MU d/l speed are now 0KB/s! WTF eh Mr.Nut, my dad pays you RM88 to give us speed crappier than 56K? You better not even cap my direct download speed after you "fixed" that stupid problem.

Look, they first promised us to fix the problem by 5th of April, before delaying to 9th of April. Now, it's 17th of April according to some forummers in Lowyat.net. WTF. KNNB eh Tmnut Screamyx, don't make false promises la. If you promised straight to fix it by 30th of April I also won't feel so mad, at least I wasn't cheated, as I hate being cheated A LOT. Also, if I'm going to get stuck with this crappy speed for half a month, or even longer (you know la, what if This Monkey NETwork company lies again?), will you give me a fcuking rebate to compensate the inconvenience caused due to your own incompetence? YOU WON'T! You money sucking company.

But what can we do to improve it? Nothing literally. This is what happens when a company monopolizes a certain sector and is backed by the gov'ment. There aren't any worthy competition for them to improve their service. Maxis BB? Celcom BB? iZZi? Or even the newcomer P1 Wimax? Nah. I've heard enough the negative sides of them, none of them can be better than this Shitmyx at the moment. Even P1 with their so-called Wiggy that can reach speed of 10mbps is not that good, click here to learn more.

This Screamyx finally made me look like an uneducated fag that goes over the place ranting here and there. I think this is what This Monkey NUT company wanted after all, they wanted us to look like monkeys when they themselves are a bunch of lazy monkeys. Well, yuck fou, if that's what you want!

I had enough. I'm not going to look like a kid due to this issue again, it's so tiring, and retarded, and who knows if they decide to sue me for ranting more here? I think I'll just bombard their unhelpful call centre when my limit's hit.

MALAYSIA BOLEH! I hope Malaysia can achieve Wawasan 2020 Wawasan 20202.

One side note, PC Fair is getting worse by time, especially with the presence of Screamyx with huge booths. Not 1, but 2! The first one was located at the first hall we got to enter. I even hear the promoters shouting "STREAMYX, COMBO.. ... ..". WTH, spoil my mood to stay longer la. The second one was located at the exit, as always. Now this time they're tricky. It looks like they've played TD games and have mastered the basic of mazing. This time, we can't get to exit the hall straightaway. Instead, we have to pass through the whole row of ISP companies, with Screamyx being one of them. Yeah well..the hell with it. I'm out.

TMNUT Screamyx?

I'm sure that a lot of you Tmnet Streamyx (I call it Tmnut Screamyx from now on) users have noticed that our internet speed deteriorated enormously for the past week. In fact this situation is normal since problems like this arises every month, or perhaps every week?

What makes me to blog about this problem anyway? It's so normal in this country that we Screamyx subscribers should have gotten used to it by now. But this thing matters me now because recently, I think I just earned myself the "heavy downloader" status, and this problem had just got me pissed off.

While torrents are as slow as always since they were throttled by Tmnut to "optimize bandwidth", direct downloads shouldn't be affected by it. I was able to download files from Rapidshare @ Teleglobe and Megaupload with at least 100kB/s, if not at full speed @ 180kB/s. That was before last week. Now, neither of them can barely even reach 10kB/s. WTF. I don't think there's anyone that won't get pissed to see this.

And I went to their website to look for their announcements.

31/03/2009
SERVICE INTERRUPTION

Dear Valued Customers,

Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) wishes to announce that there is a disruption of its Internet services due to circuit faults on the SMW3 between Tuas, Singapore and Penang linking Malaysia to Hong Kong and APCN2 near Chongming, China connecting Malaysia to the United States. As a result, customers using the Internet services may experience slow browsing while accessing websites hosted in the U.S. and Hong Kong.

In addition, customers using other IP services such as Virtual Private Network (VPN) and other critical business applications linked to the U.S. and Hong Kong may also experience some service degradation.

To alleviate the problem, some of the links have been rerouted to alternate routes to ease the congestion.

Restoration works on the affected cables are already in progress. However, during the restoration process, traffic to Northern America and Hong Kong may experience degradation. However, traffic to other countries will not be affected. TM expects complete recovery of its services by 5 April 2009 and will make further announcements on the progress of the restoration works.

TM wishes to assure its customers that it is undertaking all necessary measures to restore communications services for its customers as soon as possible.

Customers can call TM at 100 and select “Internet Services” or e-mail us at help@tm.com.my for any Internet related problems.


Thank You.

Ok now, what does "As a result, customers using the Internet services may experience slow browsing while accessing websites hosted in the U.S. and Hong Kong" and "However, traffic to other countries will not be affected" means? I can't recall browsing websites hosted in other countries especially European countries were fast. By the way, surfing websites hosted in U.S., H.K. and China were never fast prior to this incident as well!

And, they stated that the problem will be fixed by 5th of April which was 2 days ago, but they have yet to fix it by today. Anyway, I just found out from Lowyat.Net forums that it has been delayed until 8th of April, which is tomorrow. I don't know how real will it be, it's just like dealing with a conman, where the conman always make sweet promises to pay back the money to the victim but always gives some lame reasons to buy some time for him to 走佬 (run away). I hate these kind of empty promises, this is just cheating customers! I wonder how companies like this can exist in this world! Well, only Malaysia has it. MALAYSIA BOLEH!

Update: Just found out again from a fellow forummer that the link to H.K. has been fixed as indicated by speedtest, although the speed is still not that good. Now, let's hope that the link to U.S. can be fixed ASAP, to keep our mouths shut, for now.

Disastrous JPA interview

I've done it again, there's no doubt that I'm VERY bad in communicative skills.

Today was a big day for me. I had to attend an interview held by JPA in PICC. This was the first formal interview I'd gone through so I wore long sleeve tee, a tie, a pair of slacks and a pair of leather shoes. And I combed a nerdy hair, which is an upgraded version of my usual messy hair.

I arrived half an hour earlier as my interview starts at 2pm. The feeling was never any better than taking my SPM result, in fact it's way worse. First, everyone has to go to a whiteboard to find their name and sign on it before going upstairs. There were many panels, and I was at Panel 8, which is the same panel with a schoolmate of mine.

And there you wait until about 1.45pm before the gate was opened so the interviewees can go in and wait outside their respective panel's room. Wait for your turn to be called to hand in your documents to the staffs, then you will be given a number tag and a piece of paper for you to write out the points during discussions. I was the first group to be interviewed. Together with me was a Chinese girl, a Malay girl and 2 Malay boys.

Finally we were called to enter the interviewer's room. There were 3 interviewers, which comprised of 2 Malay man and 1 Chinese woman. We greeted them and we were asked to introduce ourselves in BM in 2 minutes. Ok at least I prepared for this, but eventually I talked too much and was cut down by the interviewer and he just wanted to know what course did I chose, but wtf? I think I didn't talk for even 1 minute yet. Zzz

Fine, the intro section ends and things just got worse. The next section will the group discussion conducted in English. We were given 2 topics:
1) Consumption of junk food is growing among children. Discuss.
2) Which 3 country would you like to work in? Why?
I stuttered all the way long, my mind was messed and I can't voice out my opinions in an orderly manner. Besides, I was the last person to talk for both topics. So I was left with limited choice as most easy points were already voiced out by my group members.

The interview session was followed by another group discussion but this time it was conducted in BM. My body's own special pogative/nesitive feedback mechanism is working at it's best during this period. Why some unknown facts again? Act pro when I look pathetic? Allow me to explain. I call it pogative/nesitive because it's a great fusion of both positive feedback and negative feedback mechanism. The negative feedback mechanism causes my body to shiver like hell in an attempt to regain heat, whereas the positive feedback mechanism causes my body temperature to continue dropping when the surrounding temperature is already that cold. With this "revolutionary" feedback mechanism, my body shivers to lose heat, which further inhibits my already worse understanding and communicative skills. There's no cure to this symptom as of today. Period.

Back to the story. With my pogative/nesitive feedback mechanism it's almost impossible for me to talk any more, don't even say thinking. Besides, BM is my fatal spot. Expect me to be stunned right at the spot. Anyway, I did crap something out to make me look less a phail, just that the 2 Malay interviewers looked like they were going to fall asleep from my speech.

Then finally, it's the ending. They allowed us to ask some questions related to this scholarship. My group members obviously had many questions to ask, everyone of them. I tried so hard and finally I squeezed out a question. What a huge success. Yay!

And so it ended after that. We thanked our interviewers and walked out of the room. The whole process took 1 hour which was longer then we expected. My group members looked so happy, while I felt that I'm a phail. Whatever, I could only blame myself for being an introvert, idiot, n00b. It's too late to change anything. But looking at the bright side, future disappointment has been eliminated since I didn't have any hope of securing the scholarship from that point on.

Overall, the interviewers were good enough to not headshot me right at the spot, it's just me that shot myself in the leg. So friends, if you're going for an interview, your calmness will be the key to your success. Always equip yourselves with the current issues happening around the world, and of course, sharpen your mind and communicative skills. Sorry, I'm still too depressed to give any good advice here, and I think I'm not eligible to give as well.

To interviewees from my group, I'm perhaps the noobest person you'll see in your life. So, remember my n00b face, remember how phail I am during the interview, and call me n00b if you meet me by any chance.

Anyway, I hope those shortlisted candidates who will be having their interview for the next few days, good luck!

P.S.: I'm aware of what day is today, but given the situation now I just can't do it, so read the whole crap passage without feeling being cheated.

Kthxbye.

It's so hard to find a job, eh?

Well, it's approaching 2 months since SPM ended. I had been planning to work while waiting for my SPM result to come out. It didn't turn out well as expected, a lazy bum like me couldn't forgive myself for not enjoying the long-waited holiday. Plus, my classmates had a trip to Genting Highlands on late December. So, I can't help myself to postpone my so-called plan.

The day after Christmas, I actually went to apply for a job position as a waiter at GreenBox Jusco. And of course, I wouldn't be here blogging if I have succeeded. My equation only for myself, in a nutshell:
Not prepared for an interview + God d@mn cold interview room + My inability to talk = FAIL.

Early of January, I went to Jusco again with my friends, trying my luck again. The result was still the same. Those shops with vacancy require us to be working at the 3rd Lunar Day. I wouldn't be a problem for me if my hometown is in KL, but no, it's in Johor! How am I supposed to come back at the 2nd day of CNY when I havn't finish collecting my angpau??

Yesterday, I tried my luck at The Mines/Capitaland or whatever you call it. There sure are a lot of vacancies, BUT, most of them are either only for females or full (full then why stick so many vacancy notice at your shop entrance??). WTF, did my face just pissed you off by giving me these reasons? Fine, I still managed to apply for a job in one of the computer shops there.

Today, I went to that shop again to attend an interview by the supervisor as he was on leave yesterday. I did better in this interview if compared to last time at GreenBox, BUT, I have shown my honesty (1st stupidity) by saying:"I'm not really good with computers, but you can't say that I'm not good with it either." Know my meaning of "inability to talk" now?

Anyway, he said he will give me an answer tomorrow as he will discuss with the higher-levels. Judging by my past experience, that means, I have 99% chance of failing to get the job for (1)my inability to talk just now, (2)my high expected salary (RM1000 nia, 2nd stupidity). The hell with it, at least I've tried to be myself. Using the equation earlier:
Not prepared for an interview + God d@mn cold interview room + My inability to talk = 1/3 FAIL.

If I failed to get the job, which I most probably will, fine, I got myself the easiest job in the world: Full-time Mapler! By then I can earn at least 100K Mesos per day with my LV27 Mage, gaining experience at the mean time!

Vincent out.
