It seems that these days things that were once free, is being bought over by other companies and users will have to pay for their services. What am i talking about? Services like TagBoard and backblog (I used to use for my comments). Well to do away with all these problems, future wise, I've decided to just stick to one of Blogger's easy-to-use templates and hopefully they don't make me change stuff again.
Assuming I'll be joining blogathon this year, I might use this account rather than create a new blog for it. Also saves people on my friends list (on LJ) the spam D:
So... Happy 2007, blahblahblah. And if you were directed here from a Naruto forum... that link to that Bleach song has been LOOOOONG GONE!

The domain & hosting I subscribed to last year expired. Wasn't happy with the host so I've decided to change it and maybe get a new domain name. In the mean time I've transfered back my old blog posts here and everything is back as to the way it was. Including the comments \(^__^)/
I may decide to change the layout, because doing it with LJ is harder in my opinion... and I think its fun here =) Blogging will be done in LJ, so I'm just keeping this old blog up for memories sake. After all, it has been 3 1/2 years since I first started blogging.
It is a the year 2006 and a lot has changed since 2003. In life, family and friends. Hehehe! Til then~

Since almost everyone has moved to LJ... and so have I in a way... is there a point keeping this blog up? Sure there are old posts that I'd like to keep, especially during the days of college and my final year project ^__^
I wonder if there's a way for me to save the posts and archive them elsewhere or something something '__';

So, the famous question constantly asked today is, "How did the demo go?"
A couple of days ago I'd mentioned to some that I met with some people from (Midvalley Mega Mall) MV regarding our software. That was just a brief meeting where they requested a demo of our software in their office. So after days of preparing two laptops, installing the necessary stuff and our software, blahblah, yesterday my boss & I headed for MV at 2.30pm. We were meeting 2 more of "our" people there and of course our client's people.
So, we got to the office and there were a few guys already in the presentation room. So while we waited for the rest of them to come, I started setting up the system, etc. There was 4 of us (including me) and 7 of them. 4 of which are I think from the IT department of Company A, in charge of MV, and 3 is the media company hired by Company A. With everything set up, we began the presentation... me being the presenter of course.
Overall, the presentation went well. Any problems or whatever that went through I knew how to tackle and surprisingly I wasn't as nervous as I thought I'd be. Aside from the fact that I had to desperately search for words which failed my memory a couple of times x__x *uhhuhhhwtfisthewordwtfwtfuhh* Of course during and after the presentation there are questions. Questions which are... questionable =__=
The fact that Malaysians will always be Malaysians and ask anal questions, I suppose it is expected! You show them this, they ask for that plus x, y & z. They have this mentality where they must find a way to shoot you down with "stupid-which-think-are-so-smart" questions just to feel good of themselves. Tough luck MISTERs, I know the software like the back of my hand -_-.
Take situation #1.
Mr Oh-my-England-so-good-I-can-talk-with-slang-liao, who's not even going to smell the software let alone use it says "Oh I don't want all this gimmicky stuff. Just something to put the adverts out there."
First, duh... if you're a user, this software WOULD make it easy and put the adverts out there...
Second, gimmicky means "A significant feature that is obscured, misrepresented, or not readily evident". If it was all some bullshit, would we be able to HAVE a demo right before your eyes and SHOW THAT EVERYTHING IS WORKING and not some preplanned lala?
What a dumbass. Well I guess thats what you would expect from a media person. OH! But wait a minute! I might have to eat my words here.
Take situation #2.
There is the IT guys... whom you'd think would be smarter than that, asks me about the speed Machine A takes to download from Machine B.
First, downloads depends on your connection and if it's just directly from pc to pc (which was the case in this demo) it'll be quite fast but nooooooooooooooooo...
Mr I'm-so-smart-I'm-the-CTO asks Mr n00blet-pretending-he-cannot-smile, who was sitting next to me, to time how fast the download takes. Stooooopid I tell you... couldn't ask anything more related to the software iszit?
Can you imagine, at one point the two of them were ACTUALLY passing notes to each other on a piece of paper. LIKE it couldn't wait??? SO unethical and unprofessional!!!
Is this going to be the case of every other company I present our software to? I didn't have such problems with the Swiss fellas. But then again, they understand the software a lot more I suppose. And are they just giving me a hard time since I was the only female in the room and most likely the youngest and being in this sorta field, females are looked down upon/underestimated? I'll have them know that this entire SOFTWARE was done by TWO GIRLS!
*wrings somebody's neck*
All in all, my boss and the other 2 people from my company said I did a good job presenting. So yay me. Now.. to ask for a pay raise >.>;

But before that.... the headlines on today's newspaper: No end to haze until October...
Uuuurrrrgggghhhhh.... ¬____¬
It's like as though we're in a different country, like the UK, except.... it's still HOT AND HUMID!!! I sense a disaster in the health department. I'm already coughing, but not like a dog as yet. Pity the school going kids. Especially those who don't have air-conditioning and are on the 3rd floor.
Today has got to be in it's worse condition. If we follow the pattern as like the last couple of days, the haze usually worsens in the afternoon/early evening. So what is this afternoon gonna look like??? 10 METRES VISIBILITY? SMELL OF SMOKE IN THE AIR-CONDITIONED OFFICES??? And of all weeks, unlike the others, it had to be under a dry spell.
Attention Rainmakers: Make some rain... please? =___=
I wanna break. Can working people also get "day offs" like the schools during bad weather too? :3
Edit:
Visibility -- 0%. All I see is white... like as though someone covered the windows with mah jong paper from the outside. Gahness x____x

[ Honey & Clover Manga ]
This might be the last time I promote Honey & Clover. I think... Nah.. maybe not :p
There's a manga as well.. almost the same as the anime. Released by ShoujoMagic and available at #ShoujoMagic @ irctoo. They've only released volume 1, 5 chapters. Looks like they've stopped, but no mention on whether they discontinued the project.
Don't forget to check it out =)
