I've Been Conned!

Haha, as the topic stated I hereby confirm that I've been conned. I saw a 40GB hard drive advertisement in forum.lowyat.net at only RM35. Seeing that my brother's PC was in ICU due to hard drive failure, I decided to buy from this fella. It was quite strange because I planned to do COD with him but still he wanted me to pay first. I did understand that some people do that in order to avoid case of FFK (promise to buy but don't turn up). The amount is also not that much, still not a big worry for me for RM35. So I guess what the heck, I'll just bank-in to him. Asked Rina to bank-in for me, as I wanted to avoid service charge haha. And just now I read a topic saying that this person is a conmen in forum.lowyat.net. Well I guess, this is my time to be conned. Luckily it's just a small amount, not up to thousand dollars like some of us. Oh before you flame me saying that I'm stupid to bank-in money to strangers, I would like to stress here that I did take that decision with conscious mind and I did understand the risk of being conned. When I asked Rina to bank-in the money, I've already set my mind that the money was gone until I received the hard drive myself. So, yeah, life goes on :)

Oh to that fella, should you somehow read this, I would like to say again that I held no grudge against you. Do use my money, I think you need it that badly that you have to con people to earn for a living. I don't want to add your pile of sins dude, I have forgiven you entirely. Just take it like I gave you 'sedekah', and we are OK. One advice though, they are a lot of angry fellas in forum.lowyat.net searching for you and the bad thing is, they have your house address. Good luck finding a safe place :)

PTPTIPU

Wahai PTPTIPU,

Tiap-tiap bulan aku gigih dan setia membayar hutang pengajian aku yang jumlah besarnya lebih kurang RM76,000. Sesungguhnya aku berterima kasih sangat-sangat sebab ko membolehkan aku dapat aku punya degree. Tapi alangkah tensennya hati bila aku tengok tiap-tiap bulan jugak la ko charge aku interest service charge berjumlah RM180.00. Aku nak tanye ko la, ko tak rasa bengang ke kalau duit yang kita pinjam tu makin bertambah dengan takde sebab munasabah? Aku ni baik hati nak membayar balik dengan tak perlu ko antar surat mahkamah, masuk nama aku dalam CTOS atau sebagainya. Tapi dalam aku baik gini, ko buat taik pulak ek dengan aku. Tensen aku tensen, bila bulan-bulan RM200.00 yang aku bayar tu rupanya masuk RM20.00 jek dalam kutipan hutang ko. Aku tak tau la ape servis bagus sangat yang sampai ko kena charge kat aku tu. Asal aku call nak tanya je, tak sah kalau aku tak call sampai 2 kali. 2 kali tu pun, staff ko nak angkat phone sikit punya liat. Budi bahasa jauh citer la, aku sampai dah rasa staff ko tu dulu skip kelas Pendidikan Islam untuk bab akhlak (kalo tak pun, kelas Pendidikan Moral). Nak kata pasal untuk gaji staff, duit tax payer kan ada. Ko pun under kerajaan, mintak la. Ape ke hal mintak kat orang yang membayar hutang plak ni. Tak ingat ke nabi cakap riba' tu haram? Fedap dah aku dengan ko nih. Ooo untuk pengumuman ko kata kalo budak takde akaun SSPN takleh apply PTPTIPU tu kan, here's the scoop. Anak aku nanti, aku memang takmo bukak akaun SSPN pun. Aku lagi rela aku susah payah cari duit bayar yuran anak aku daripada dia membayar riba'. Truth hurts isn't it?

Dan dengan ini, aku janji aku takkan bayar lebih daripada RM200.00 tiap-tiap bulan untuk hutang aku. Biarla walaupun time tu gaji aku dah sampai RM15,000.00 pun, aku tak peduli. Sampai ko hapuskan riba' ko ni, aku tetap akan bayar banyak tu je tiap-tiap bulan. Ko nak marah aku? Ko sendiri cakap pembayaran minimum RM100.00 pun ko terima. Aku bayar 2 kali ganda dari bayaran minimum eh, sile respek sket. Dan untuk korang yang kata aku tak kenang budi, ni aku nyer soalan. Aku ada makan budi korang ke? Takde kan? So sile dalami makna nick aku time kat universiti dulu: stfu!

Undescribablistic!!

Saje blogging dalam BM. Malas sebenarnya nak memikirkan grammar. Kalau ikutkan memang la grammar kena perfect kan. Ah tapi pedulikan, bukannya yang membaca blog ni tak paham BM. Tapi kut la ada yang tak paham BM, sile-sile la blaja BM. Bleh gak menambah penguasaan bahasa, ahaha..

Hujung minggu lepas aku melepakkan diri ke Melaka. Dok umah Izma selama 1 malam. Oo jangan silap paham ye. Beliau tinggal bersama family beliau, mak bapaknye ada sama. Maka janganlah anda berprasangka bukan-bukan mengatakan aku dan beliau ber*toot* di rumah sewa atau sebagainya. Tak kelas aa buat kat rumah sewa. Alang-alang nak, pegi la Concorde ke Shang-ri La ke. Baru berbaloi, hahaha. Ceh lari topik lak.

Entry ni benarnye nak citer pasal satu kedai makan seafood yang kitorang pegi Sabtu malam tuh. Nama kedai makan tu Seri Muara Seafood, dekat-dekat kawasan Alai Crystal Bay. Kira kalo dari Bandar Melaka tu, korang jalan stret jek menghala ke Muar. Nanti pas ada satu jambatan, akan ada tulis Alai Crystal Bay belah kanan korang. Masuk dalam tu (jalan dalam ni macam jalan citer antu sket, gelap) sampai korang jumpa deretan rumah banglo belah kanan. Masuk simpang kanan tuh, pastu terus jek jalan ke depan. Akan ada banyak kedai-kedai seafood kat situ. Yang belah depan sekali ni kitorang dah try dulu. Sedap tu sedap la, tapi masa kitorang pegi tu spoil sebab nasik dia abis. Kena tunggu dekat 2 jam untuk nasik masak. Ikut hati masa tu nak makan lauk je, tapi mengenangkan perut tak jumpa nasik lagi so tahan je la. Kedai yang aku nak citer ni kat dalam lagi, korang lintas ada satu jambatan kecik (muat-muat 1 kete jek). Nanti akan jumpa 1 lagi kelompok kedai makan, kat situ la Seri Muara Seafood.

Pesal aku beria nak citer pasal kedai ni? Sebabnye ialah, kat sini tekak aku dengan sangat 'heaven'nya telah dapat merasa isi ketam goreng berlada yang tobat sangat sedap. Manis ya amat isi ketam tuh, beza gile dengan ketam yang aku makan kat KL nih. KL punya sedap tu sedap la jugak, tapi isi dia tak semanis yang fresh dari laut. Asalnya kitorang order nasik putih 2 pinggan, sudahnya makan lauk jek. Tak makan nasik dah, meratah lauk saje. Malam tu makan siakap masak 3 rasa, ketam goreng berlada dan sotong goreng tepung. Overall, ikan tu standard rasa kat mana-mana (ada tempat lain yang lagi sedap dari situ, kat KL pun ada), sotong goreng tepung tu buat ilang selera aku je (tak sedap la tu), tapi ketam goreng berlada tu memang penyelamat maruah planet Bumi betul. Naik balik selera sebab ketam tu punya pasal, ehehe. Kena plak Izma dgn baik atinya telah mengkopek ketam-ketam tersebut dan bagi aku isinya saja. So aku cuma perlu amik ngan sudu, pastu sumbat dalam mulut. Ikut ati, nak soh dia suapkan sekali haha. Siyes ah, bagi aku kesedapan dia memang menjilat *toot*. Kalau citer Yakitate tu, aku ni dah jadi macam ketam yang Kawachi buat tu kut. Yang Kuroyanagi makan tuh, sampai takleh keluar tangan dia dari poket. Camtu la sedap ketam tu bagi aku.

Dan pastu kitorang gi tengok midnite lak kat Mahkota Parade. Citer Spiderman 3, kul 1 pagi. Perut dah la kenyang, dok lak dalam aircond. Sib baik la citer agak menarik (walaupun meleret jalan citernye), kalau tak sah aku tido. Itu pun dah tertido jugak sikit-sikit. Memandangkan aku ni bukan la hantu Spiderman sangat, so takde la aku terlampau teruja nak tengok pun. Tak tengok pun, takde effect pada aku rasanya. Hape Spiderman boleh keluar web lak kat tangan. Tengok Batman tu, sumer gadget-gadget yang realistik. Tu baru la superhero sejati namanya. Setakat keluar web buat apa, kalau boleh keluarkan World Wide Web takpe la jugak. Abis Spiderman dalam kul 3:30. Beratur tunggu lif, bayar parking sumer, kul 4 pagi sampai rumah. Sampai rumah dah gelap gelita, sumer orang dah tido. Aku lak dah memang mamai tahap gile, so pas tukar baju tu bentang tilam & slamat ke alam tidak realiti la jadinya.

Abis weekend aku sudahnya..

Fighting a Losing Battle

Have you ever had the feeling of continuing a battle, regardless whether you were losing or winning, just continuing for the heck of it? It was like whichever side winning or losing, it didn't matter anymore. What kept the adrenaline going was the spirit, enjoyment, the excitement of the battle itself. It was like you were born to be a fighter, not a soldier. A soldier followed orders from commander, and thus winning or losing really matter. But a fighter, no, a fighter simply fights just for the adrenaline rush. The feeling of excitement, the thrill, the direct stimulation to your brain, it satisfies your hunger. Battle, how horrific it is, has become an art in the hand of a fighter.

Imagine a situation where a fighter fights a soldier. One side concentrates on winning, while the other focusing on the excitement. It disappoints the fighter, who enjoys long, hard-fought battle, to find that his opponent only cares about winning. He may just leave the scene, frustrated with what is going on. He may even give the victory to the soldier, realizing that the battle is not worth fighting for. Soldier may be overjoyed with the victory, whereas a fighter simply finds another worthy opponent.

That’s the difference. A soldier kills the opponent even though the opponent is unarmed, while a fighter helps the opponent recovers for another good battle in future.


Is victory that important, or is it overrated? You might win the battle, but I’ll make sure I win the damn war..

Weakpoint

• Took me 7 years to know, learn and understand
• Multiple failed result, with only 1 success rate
• Tested in live environment resulting in near catastrophic event to fully get and understand the result
• Proves that all these while I didn't know what it is actually
• Can also functions as my weakpoint, so I need to take pre-emptive measure to counter it
