I had just ended conversation with SK and Bui Bui. Now I have the mix feeling of miserable and guilt that once haunted me. But the strength of the feel is no near to the past. I shared with them my past experiences and my heart ignited to the sour cream flavour. My heart eroded awhile.
I am a sore looser who can't get through with what I wrongly did and did nothing to compensate the damage I had imposed on. Thousand sorry mean nothing now. Anything done now is meaningless.
As a person who thinks highly of himself, I am not letting my past to drag me down even an inch. I know my stance, I know my way of doing things, I know how to deal with things. Things of the past are no longer important, 'coz I absorbed the very essence I extracted from the history, and made it my first yet the most important lesson in my life.
From the past I learn to lead my path, I know the way to create my own path, I know who to guide me in pathing the way to my future.
It's easy to walk a path that has been ready made for everyone. But it's tough to walk out the path, build changes out of norm and bear risks. Never it is easier to convince everyone in believing the path that we chose that seem wrong in their eyes.
I am not letting the past defeat me who once triumph the shameful history in my life. I was once shame of myself, but no longer need to. I need not let the guilt express itself while suppress the happy moment that I am sharing now. Watch out your past tense, don't simply mix with present and future tense.
Past went off with the wind, and shall never make a come back along the rain. History shall not repeat, and so never shall future repeats history...
I am sorry...

Jino's bad habit
Habits are routine that a person does often and usually without realizing, especially something that is hard to stop. What I consider a bad habit is behavioral action that is so not normal in the eyes of normal beings, action that is always condemned by people around me.
1. Biting Fingernails
This is the habit developed since I was small, probably because I wasn't given any pacifier. I know I know. Germs...
2. 兰花子
兰花子 is a term used to describe little finger. Neither did I know how this came to me, but I don't like this. Whenever I am holding a cup, eating burger, typing, you will probably see me with 兰花子. It is also said to have linkage with sissy... I am not sissy!!!
I still remember 小白 hit my fingers with chopsticks, bcoz he hates 兰花子 (>.<)
3. Sotong dance
My usual stance when I am idly standing. If you have a chance to make me stand, you would see me move around like a sotong. Moving left to right to left to right to left to right... And some hand movement. Some say it's disgusting. What to do? I just can't stand still. I can continue doing this for many hours. If you cannot tahan with me, offer me a seat then... Maybe this too affects my way of walking? My best partner to practise with: Chuan Shiau Li. Very eye distracting, I know.
p/s: Sotong dance came to me not too long ago, but it definitely is a good exercise for me who lead a sedentary lifestyle. I would probably live longer than any other sedentarents
4. Eye contact
Many complained of my eye contact when I was in Form 6. They said I showed no respect to them 'coz I wasn't looking at them when talking. As if talking to the air, they said.
In fact, I am afraid that whenever I make eye contact, the person can see through my eyes and know what I am thinking. What is there to be found out? Secret. Low confident I am, yes...
Maybe another reason will be because of my ugly face, that they will start puking if they see me too much?
But many also say that I have improved, start having eye contact. Is it true?
5. Sleeping
Starting 2008, my slumber lust for comfy Ultraman or Moo. Otherwise I can't sleep well. Thanks, my nightmare reduced a lot.
But these 2 always escape my hug when I sleep, to fight monster or eat grass somewhere...
Not really a bad habit 'coz many're doing it. There's only difference in gender, so what? Support gender equality!!! Guys can hug dolls too, can't they?
6. Talking alone
Normal people would hum or sing when they are alone but how often have you encounter someone talking to no one but himself? Yes we have 1 in Sri Petaling itself, the king of Sri Petaling (next time snap photo)...
But in my case, when there's no one around me (at home, in the car, walking an empty alley), I will start talking aloud to myself. Ask question to myself and answer myself. Syok sendiri? Probably able to generate ideas for my assignments and presentations.
I thought no one would realize this. But yesterday, I was on the phone with Edwin while heading to Mok's house for gathering. Before I hung the phone, I started talking aloud to myself. So my friend heard me talking and he knew I am alone. So memalukan...
In my own world I am quite talkative but in reality... Am I psycho?
7. Err...
This has something to do with Jay Chou's habit... Better don't mention it here. Go google up yourself.
Is it so important to stop these bad habits? Why should I stop something which is already part of me?
I know I have few bad habits that is unstopable. But please don't forget I have many good virtues and values in me that you guys have yet to discover.

DiGi - Always the smarter choice?
Feel heartache for finishing up your credit although you'd just reloaded, let's say RM 30 an hour ago?
Imagine you have to plan your credit usage so wisely, that you are limiting your calling?
Feel your heart bleed whenever you need to pay for extensive amount of bill?
Yearning for that perfect plan tailor made for our mobile needs? Look no more! DIGI Postpaid lets you choose and enjoy different call plans, each specially formulated to amplify your mobile lifestyle by allowing you the flexibility to stay connected to what's truly important in life - your loved ones. - DIGI Postpaid
I didn't intend to do free advertising for DiGi, but "good things" must be shared. Let me share with you all the "happiness" moment I had with DiGi.
My average usage for a month is around RM 40 with strict discipline. If I don't watch my wallet carefully I might use up to RM 100 a month. But the worries were resolved 3 months ago (Nov 2008) when I subscribed for DiGi postpaid 1 Family as a supplementary line under my brother's as a principal. Why under my brother? If I were to subscribe as a principal myself, it's slightly costly that my wallet cannot afford to. Principal pays RM 50 while supplementary rate is RM 30. Now you see how RM 20 is important to me? Why not Maxis? Celcom? U mobile? I guess you can compare these brochures yourself.
Switching from prepaid to postpaid you need to have at least RM 50 balance, and activation of postpaid needs at least 3 working days.
The package sounds good and convinced me to switch from prepaid to postpaid. I thought I had my worries resolved... I really thought so, at first.
The confusion arose even before the first bill being issued. Being the supplementary line, my first bill stated RM 68.80 gave me a real shock. Let me show you how they derive the numbers.
First bill - (

As calls and calls being made to clarify matters concerned, the inefficient billing department and customer service gave me idiotic reply. It was due to system error that cause such amount being charged. Since when I use so much? I am very sure I never use more than RM 21 for the time given. And I am 100% sure I used less than RM 10!!!
The problem is of explained:
Supposingly the package I am using now gives privilages to the user for calling and sms-ing the principal and other supplementary users free of charge, anytime, anywhere. Yea it is supposingly this way. But due to system error (which only happens to me alone, not other millions of DiGi users), I was charged for calling supplementary users, causing extensive amount in my bill.
Since the bill was out, and there's nothing they can do (as if), they required me to pay the amount first while they seek into the solution.
As for myself, I made my own calculation. It was rather a headache one initially but I find ways through a simpler understanding... As long as you passed your mathematics in primary school, this isn't too hard.
My Own Calculation:

In fact DiGi are suppose to owe me RM 20. But to cooperate with them, I made advance payment of RM 68.80, waited for another month to see if my problem solved.
Yup. Along the time till the next bill issued, I called and called and double confirmed, perhaps tripled, to confirm the issue. As they mentioned, the problem was already solved on 18th December, and DiGi will recredit RM 81.52 to my account. After double confirmed triple confirmed, I can't rest easily as I know problem will rise again. If the problem was solved on 18th December, what will happen to the days before 17th? Have you solved it? Definitely not 'coz my next bill explained everything.
You see, from my initial balance RM 52.05 and the payment RM 68.80, deduct the proper usage of RM 32.05, DiGi should give me back RM 88.80 instead of RM 81.52. Where is my RM 7.28? Return my RM 7.28!!!
That's not all. After receiving the second bill I was shocked anotherly great. I was expecting something like RM -55.00, but the bill was never near that. It was RM -3.12!!! How did DiGi came to that amount? Let's be transparent and count now.
Second bill - (08/12/2008 - 07/01/2009):
MONTHLY FIXED CHARGES |
|
1 Family ( | RM 30.00 |

|

What really happened can only be understood if you see my itemised bill. I was still charged for making calls and sms-ing principal and supplementary users till 17th December. If you understand already, now you know how inefficient they are.
Can't you see that? DiGi is repeating the same mistakes!!! Not once but twice!!! What to do? Have to call DiGi customer service again. Thank god calling the customer service is free otherwise I will really boil up.
This is my own calculation for my second bill:

The people from billing department replied me the day after I lodge the report. They replied with sms, that they will give me back RM 54.11. Firstly, they did not even bother to explain to me how they derive the amount, thinking that by sending me a stupid sms like that will put me quiet? Secondly you are suppose to give me back RM 55.02, not just RM 54.11! Short of RM 0.91. Plus the earlier RM 7.28, you cheated me RM 8.19!!! Give me back my money!!! Very dissatisfied!!!
And they can't even make amendment right away, excuses here and there. They made me pay in advance, burdening me financially again and again. I really want to talk to their customer service face to face, but I doubt it works 'coz DiGi will again blame others and push the responsible to each other. In the midst of economy crisis, with great competition from competitors, is this the kind of service that we get? In the mind thinking that DiGi has solved my mobile financial planning, it at all doesn't!!!
Can you imagine the line coverage bars on the phone screen drop from full to none when you make phone call? Only happens here, right in this computer room, when I answer or make any call, the coverage turns so badly the line is cut automatically. The line is not FULL!!! YOU FOOL!!! And they make a fool out of me!!!
See? From full bar to none
See? From full bar to none
I am so speechless now. I don't know what to do. Although the third bill is normal (RM 26.50), I still feel unease.
In conclusion, to those who wish to convert to DiGi, think twice please. Other network might charge you higher, but you pay for their service. 一分钱一分货. DiGi is cheap, and very "cheap"... OK I admit, I am cheap... If there is someone to blame, blame myself for being a poor guy to not afford Maxis. If you ask me which is better, Maxis 'coz I like apple green. In other word, don't choose DiGi. If you insist choosing DiGi, disobeying my order, then go buck up your mathematical skills and equations, and sharpen your tongue... Act on your own account.

Please Help Me!!!
I start fretting right after CNY break. The amount of angpao did not soothe me enough to nullify the post-CNY workloads.
In 4 days time, Genetics test 1 falls upon. The progress is - 3%.
In 11 days time, Molecular Biology test 1 strikes. Progress - 0%.
In 18 days time, Molecular Biology and Genetics reports to be submitted simultaneously. Progress - 0%.
In 34 days time, Culture & Communication assignment and presentation. Progress - 0%.
In 38 days time, say hello to Pendidikan Moral test 1. Progress - 0%.
Not enough? Add on hectic replacement classes, boring classes, bad weather, naughty computer... How time consuming. Can't imagine, can ya?
I am lucky enough to have completed my Pendidikan Moral assignment "prototypically", otherwise my ass would be in real bad shape now. But from the time frame given, Jino you are really inefficient!!!
Though clock ticks, I still manage to slip out these works, leisurely rolling on my bed while thinking whether to save money on KK trip or to buy a new computer. Aren't I just too carefree?
JINO STOP SHAKING YOUR ASS AND START WORKING!!! NOW!!!
Aye aye sir... *crunching*
But allow me to finish up this apple on my hand first, then take a nice ice water bath, lastly watch night news. Ya? ^^
Am I stressed? YES I AM "STRESSED". Believe it or not?

情人节快乐 - 2月14日
情人节来到就这样咯. 一定要庆祝的啊. 不庆祝就不是情人咯.
留在家也不会读书的咯. 睡觉就有啦. 跟大家一起出去一下也是好事来的.
也不错啦，今年的情人节完完全全和往年不同. 有情人节套餐就显得很不同了.
第一次去到 The Manhattan FISH MARKET. 这也是我第一次的情人节套餐哦... 感觉蛮特别的.
感觉是很特别，价钱是一分钱一分货啦. 味道不错，是值得的.
虽然情人节和普通日子一样过，意义确实是存在的. 而我也慢慢开始明白意义中的意义.
如果我可以学习做个浪漫的男朋友，哪我们天天就真真是情人节咯. 不浪漫就不是情人节了啊.
有情喝水饱是骗人的. 肚子还是要填饱的. 不吃就没有力上床啊 ^^. oops!!!
对不起我是个不浪漫的家伙. 没有浪漫细胞. 不会说好话. 讲多错多哦. 真讨人厌.
可是我相信你知道我的心是怎么想的...
祝世界各地的情人相情相爱.
情人节快乐.
Roses
Manhattan FISH MARKET Valentine's Set
Ice Lemon Tea x2 + Mushroom Soup x2 + Fried Country Mushroom + Flaming Platter for 1 + Grilled Norwegian King Salmon + Mudpie
They use this to collect bill from couples ^^

Sekinchan "Trip" - 30 Jan 2009
It was a fine day when a bunch/ half of Biochem Y2S2 Group 1 (Siau Chien, Xiao Wei, Jia Hui, Shiau Li, Bee Ling, Carol, Piew, SK, Seng Seng, Bui Bui, Jino, Ah Lok, Chang Hoong) gathered in Steven Corner Genting Klang, awaiting their next class in 4 hours time... That hang out brought the proposal of house visiting during CNY.
After 2 weeks of coordination, we had our plan finalized and materialized. The number of participants reduced by 40%. Seng Seng ffk at the very last minute making it 53%. Too bad...
2 cars for the plan: WND 9668 Honda City and WJD 8053 Proton Iswara. Navigators: Chang Hoong and Ah Lok.
I was quite worry if my 老婆婆 car can make it or not. As you know, the car is in very bad condition, never service, "hot air-cond"... Why did they want me to drive?
Ah Lok, SK, Carol and me 1st gathered in Steven Corner, then met up with Chang Hoong at Kepong Lama (sambil mintak angpao). After that we had breakfast dim sum in Sg Buloh after fetching Siau Chien from her house (tak sempat go into her house mintak angpao).
Sekinchan is up ahead Kuala Selangor. Driving to that place was very challenging and stressful, especially for the noob driver (me) and old, sick car (8053) following a drifter (SK) and his 9668 City. Curvy roads with fast-driven barbarians. What a daymare!!! 2 hours ++ of driving drained all my spiritual energy and my mental configuration was totally corrupted simply by keeping up with 9668 (+ I slept at 3 a.m. the night before). The girls into Proton while the guys into City.
The girls in my car kept complaining hot hot hot in my car. Girls!!! The air-cond's max-ed!!! I am freaking cold already. Blame your fats la lol... Later I will show you the difference of guys and girls - edited and added 22 February 2009
Anyway we reached Sekinchan Piew's house safe and sound. What a relief... And this journey was the furthest that I had drove to. Walao congratz to myself, I pecah my own record!!!
We rented a house instead of staying at Piew's house. RM 300 for a six-roomed, three-bathroomed house + air-conds + old dirty fridge + brother kwan 2 + house no. 98... what more do you expect? The house turned to a "发" lair... 发来发去.
Actually there's nothing much to do in Sekinchan. If you talk bout seafood, yes. What else? We tried the "dried beach" for fun, seafood lunch and jetty for sunset (but no sunset).
Our dinner was on Piew's family. My favourite dish was sayur goreng 'coz they had 啦啦煎 (I don't eat lala), chilli shark, chilli fish, sambal prawn (I will sakit perut after makan chilli). I was so thankful to the vege that my stomach's full.
Following dinner was fireflies watch with drizzles. ~我在淋雨中. Paddling the sampan in the midst of darkness, fireflies were as pretty as LED lights decorating Xmas trees. But no camera is allowed in that area.
Our night activity was lousang. The box - 'RM 10 for "7-10" servings'. I think 7-10 babies are more appropriate haha... Thanks to Siau Chien for the lou sang and thanks to Piew for the eating utensils.
At night we talked about 3G - Geli Geli Ghost. That night I had to recall what G had said during the group meeting as I was part of the story teller. Unforgettable memory with G, and say no more to G. We had "发" times with pokers cards and mahjong "cards" till 2.30 a.m. Next time don't let the drivers to sleep so late. Dangerous!!!
The next morning was quite stuffy. I was the earliest to wake up (don't want to rebut make cake with others). We drove around the paddy fields and prayed 9 King God. What a bum. Say your prayers...
And we had coconut to refresh ourselves...
We headed back KL at 3 p.m. and bid farewell to Piew's family for their kindness to hub our presence. This time the guys rode on my car back home. Let me show you the difference between guys and girls. When the guys enter my car, Chang Hoong - "Lower down your air-cond. Save petrol."
Chang Hoong said I very geng, sleep so late and woke up early yet I had the energy to drive. What he doesn't know is, I was damn freaking tired and bored and I had tried my best to concentrate on the safety journey. My eyes were closing if not because of him haha...
After sending Siau Chien back home (of 'coz this time we take angpao ^^) and Chang Hoong back home, I had my petrol tank fulled. In total my car used up RM 56.60 petrol. Another bummer is that 9668 City spent RM 56.70 on petrol. SK... your City is proven not a petrol saving car.
I am very satisfied yet tired today, thanks everyone. I was totally drained out like a spoilt kai lan. And I want more trips with UTAR coursemates but at the same time I hope that I will not be the driver anymore ^^

At Piew's house
My "老婆婆" made it!!!
We rented a house instead of staying at Piew's house. RM 300 for a six-roomed, three-bathroomed house + air-conds + old dirty fridge + brother kwan 2 + house no. 98... what more do you expect? The house turned to a "发" lair... 发来发去.
In front of rented house + City
Actually there's nothing much to do in Sekinchan. If you talk bout seafood, yes. What else? We tried the "dried beach" for fun, seafood lunch and jetty for sunset (but no sunset).
"White sandy beach" and "sparkling blue sea"
At the beach
Lunch seafood - RM 80++ for 8. More worthy than breakfast
At the jetty

Our night activity was lousang. The box - 'RM 10 for "7-10" servings'. I think 7-10 babies are more appropriate haha... Thanks to Siau Chien for the lou sang and thanks to Piew for the eating utensils.

At night we talked about 3G - Geli Geli Ghost. That night I had to recall what G had said during the group meeting as I was part of the story teller. Unforgettable memory with G, and say no more to G. We had "发" times with pokers cards and mahjong "cards" till 2.30 a.m. Next time don't let the drivers to sleep so late. Dangerous!!!
The next morning was quite stuffy. I was the earliest to wake up (don't want to rebut make cake with others). We drove around the paddy fields and prayed 9 King God. What a bum. Say your prayers...

And we had coconut to refresh ourselves...

This is Piew's cat. Memang miang macam his master
We headed back KL at 3 p.m. and bid farewell to Piew's family for their kindness to hub our presence. This time the guys rode on my car back home. Let me show you the difference between guys and girls. When the guys enter my car, Chang Hoong - "Lower down your air-cond. Save petrol."
Chang Hoong said I very geng, sleep so late and woke up early yet I had the energy to drive. What he doesn't know is, I was damn freaking tired and bored and I had tried my best to concentrate on the safety journey. My eyes were closing if not because of him haha...
After sending Siau Chien back home (of 'coz this time we take angpao ^^) and Chang Hoong back home, I had my petrol tank fulled. In total my car used up RM 56.60 petrol. Another bummer is that 9668 City spent RM 56.70 on petrol. SK... your City is proven not a petrol saving car.
I am very satisfied yet tired today, thanks everyone. I was totally drained out like a spoilt kai lan. And I want more trips with UTAR coursemates but at the same time I hope that I will not be the driver anymore ^^
