Should I or should I not?

Yes yes, I know that I should be working now, but the stupid system is not up yet... so I will treat myself to some blogging this Thursday morning.

For sometime now, I have been contemplating to get myself an Ipod.. It's always been on my wishlist, but not exactly on top lah... Since I have been a good boy for the past few months by not buying anything that would drive my mum up the wall, I think it's time to tick her off again.. haha.. Here was the last blow to my bank account, and the one before that, and the one beforeeee that, and that and that...
















So so... items which are on my wishlist currently are: ( in no particular order)
1. Ipod
2. A new handphone (which model is good ah?)
3. A telephoto lens (yes Steven, a 70-200mm L F2.8)
4. A plasma TV
5. A trip round the world
6. Osim massage chair

Okay, to be realistic, only the first three lah..

The one with Gays, Weirdo's and Wannabe's

Says who that the gym is a good place to meet new people? If that's your main purpose there, then seriously think again... It's filled with Gays, Weirdos and wannabe's... Since I joined this particular gym, I have only made friends with MachoMunir who happened to be an Instructor there, not that i am actually counting..

Noooooooo.... its not a place to be seen or hang out.. I just dont understand how can people pay RM170 every month to yum cha at the gym.. to put icing on the cake, some even bring home cook food to share with the group... HELLOOO???? you are supposed to be working out, not gain brownie points..

last nite, I overheard this guy's conversation ( had a feeling that he's gay) saying, 'so were there any cute guys at the party?' WTF man?? for those of you whom dont know, I am quite homophobic la... Why you ask? its my ass that they want ,.. not yours ok?... Thank god they dont walk around naked in the changing room..

* edit*
just as i was leaving the gym today, he said, bye darling.. omfg


then, there's this elite group who would only stick amongst themselves and anyone wanting to penetrate the group would have to be buff and mean like them..they will be dressed in singlet and some even come with cycling tights... I bet they are also the Spandexboyz when you go to a pool or a beach... I guess they really believe in the motto, 'If you have it, flaunt it.'

So, why my obsession with the gym? While millions of girls lust for him, I am working to have that body.. it's gotta be the most defined body i have seen, not big but defined..


















So, on my mission to bulk up, gym is definitely part of my life now.. Oh, and also to dodge gays...

Goodbye Gary..

Gary, I hope that The Evil one who caused you all the misery will pay for it one way or another.. haha.. just kidding













This is Gary during his happier days...























This is Gary now...

I am pretty sad that we lost someone of his experience... Hope that your new job will treat you well and progress further in your career. Be Good...

The one with The Friend

A few days ago, i received a call from Steven to help him help a friend with a photo shooting of kickboxing sessions on Saturday... you see, The Friend wanted to have some pictures taken for some broucher and some campaign.. The task was simple, all i had to do was to bring my camera, and snap some shots, but the catch is, we dont really get paid for it.. I thought to myself, okay la.. can practice my photography skills and got models to pose for me.. so count me in..

So came Saturday, I met up with Steven for breakfast somewhere near his house.. I was like normal la, the blur one, didnt realize what i got myself into... until he said, the lighting condition there quite dark la, this la , that laa...should use RAW format.. aiyo.. stress la, die la now.. only 1gb of memory where got enuff...

they were just wrapping up the class when we arrive... The Friend greeted us.. no, greeted him and started to introduce herself but somewhat just totally ignored me although i was standing (smiling also) next to him... i was like thinking, wahh.. how come so hostile wan? PMS today izzit? so i tried not to be bothered by her, settled in, unloaded my camera, and started snapping away, while they were still discussing about what pose would be ideal for the models to strike.. So, there was Kwai Cheng Kane, Laila Ali, Crouching tiger man, Brandon Lee and Lita... They all took turns sparing each other while we searched for the perfect shot.. i would preview everyother shot and it would either be blur, under exposed, or simply uninteresting.. stress i tell you.. and it didnt help with The Friend's hostile attitude.. imagine if she saw my pictures, for sure scream wei... so, after a while, i decided, okay la.. let's just try using Auto, and see how it goes... luckily some of the shots did turn out alrite...





here's a shot of Kwai Cheng Kane executing a side kick..








so after 2 hours of non stop kicking and punching, the
models were already tired, and my eye was starting to get a little sore from staring at the view finder.. oh ya, by now, The Friend still hasn't introduced herself, or utter a single word to me, dont know why the hostile treatment, not to say i am charging her for my shots also... just want some goddamn acknowledgement that's all.. hence i call her The Friend.

The MDC Fair...

I left the recruitment fair today with mixed feelings... Not sure how I got myself into it... dont be silly, for those of you that think I am jumping ship again, think again... I am actually quite contented with my job... I was there helping out my company with the recruitment drive... Since we were short of manpower, my task was to help promote my company, schedule the interviews and conduct the interviews...

my first duty was to schedule the interviews... first, I had to screen the CVs and look for some pre-requisites
( i was thinking to myself, okay la... can't be that complicated ritee) So i sat there for the next hour, listening and attending to their concerns.

The favourite questions were:
1. Hi, what position is open for recruitment?
2. Got training or not?
3. Involve programing ar? eee.. i am not good at programing so how ar? still can apply?
4. Got opportunity to travel?

I got bored of answering their questions after a while, so I phone my colleague David
me: Ehhh.... can swap ar... I want to have a taste of being the interviewer also la....
david: wait first la.. this is fun, wait after lunch time la then we swap...
me: dowan la.. boring lah up here... they all keep asking me the same questions over and over again..
david: ok la... u come down, there's another seat next to me.. we tag team interview la...
me: ok.. sets!

so upon hearing the good news, i rushed down to the interview hall... i was telling myself, remember to keep a straight face, remember to keep a straight face..... be serious, be professional..... and dont fuck up....

ok, so i tell you, being at the other side of the table feels soooooo much better.. -_^
for one, i dont have to worry about what i say and everyone is just trying to suck up to you! i was telling myself, man, i can get used to this... needless to say, my tag team partnership with David went really well.. but he thought i was being really crude and kept reminding me not ask too many technical questions.... remember what Janice(HR manager) told us arr, ' this is just to see their character, no need to judge them first... BE EASY ON THEM!!' but i thought aiya... let's save her the trouble of having to interview them AGAIN later... might as well reject all the crap ones now, rather than to give them false hopes... after rejecting like 5 candidates, i thought okayy, maybe i am being a little too strict here... so i took it easy and cut back on the technical questions, until this guy came along... i thought the interview went really well, but he kept on saying

candidate A: I have no problems with Java language'...( it was like for the 5th time)
so i thought to myself, ' ooo, cocky bastard, let me teach you something or two
me: so, tell me, what do you know about Classes? (to confess, i know jackshit about OO)
upon hearing my question, i could see that he started to panic...
candidate A: err.. err..umm.. ar.. classes? ..
and he went on crapping about something which i didnt really understand..
me: okay, tell me what you know about Function Calls?
candidate A: ohh.. i dont really know how to explain but, its something like a bicycle, and how you operate it....

-_-

so after that, David agreed that we desperately need some technical questions... or we wont be able to gauge and know if the bloody prick is trying to pull a fast one on you... i bet most of them left the interview hall cursing and swearing at me...tsk tsk..

at about 5pm, after shaking countless of sweaty and cold hands, we went for a drink at some cafe and i took this pic...
