National Blog Posting Month

Nov 15 2007 4:00 pm Published by Sir Mayo under event

NaBloPoMo?

“NA” – “BLO” – “PO” – “MO”?

Hmm… Not too sure how to spell that short-form. The closest related word I could think of is Napoleon [Not really related actually hehe :P ].

Anyway, do you know that this month [November] is National Blog Posting Month?
It’s an annual exercise started in US, and it has grown into quite a huge community. Right now, there’s a fun viral tagging stuff running in the community. And I’m being tagged by Julie :D

This is how the game works:
When you get tagged by someone, you will have to tell 7 random facts about yourself on your blog. You’ll then have to link back to the one who tagged you, and tag another 7 random bloggers you find using the Randomiser. Leave comments on their blog to inform them and tell them about these rules.

So here goes my random facts.

Solution for iPod Nano 3rd Gen Hang Problem

Nov 15 2007 3:50 pm Published by Sir Mayo under technical

Dear Udayan,

Glad to hear from you :D
I’m surprised to realise that there’s quite a number of people out there who have the same problem as mine. So here’s how I solved my iPod’s problem:

  1. Firstly, plug you iPod to your computer, and remember, DON’T open your iTunes. Go to “My Computer” and make sure your iPod appears in it as a removable drive.

    In my case, my iPod is assigned with drive letter “C”
  2. Go to “Start” Menu, right-click on “My Computer” menu item and look for “Manage” and then click on it.

  3. A program called “Computer Management” will be opened. Click on “Disk Management” and you’ll see your iPod listed in the Volume list.

  4. Right-click on your iPod in the list, and click “Change Drive Letter and Paths…”

  5. A dialog will prompt up right after. You select your iPod default drive letter [as assigned automatically by the computer] and click “Change…” button.

  6. A new dialog will appear to ask for a new driver letter. Just select any drive letter [except letter C and other letters already exist in your computer].

    I select X for my iPod [You know, I tend to get as far as I can from the things that I know can cause problems. Haha. Human nature?]

  7. A confirmation dialog will prompt out. Just click “Yes”.

  8. Now, just eject your iPod and then plug it to your computer again. You iPod will be assigned the letter you specified just now.

Voila!

Now you can run iTunes to test it out.
p.s.: hopefully my solution can solve your problem :) *fingers crossed*

Over and over again is Insane. so Let’s READ

Nov 13 2007 3:09 pm Published by Sir Mayo under sketch,toys

I just read about this -

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome.

Hmm…

I drive to office, push the buttons on my keyboards, have lunch, drive back home after work, take bath, have dinner, watch TV, read and write blog, watch YouTube, download songs, chat with friends and finally get on to bed at midnight like… almost everyday, and I’m repeating them while hoping that one day that cold Mr Bangi Postman [I have never seen him smiling -_-] will drop a RM5000-cheque in my mailbox. [I'm not asking for too much with RM5000, right?]

No Doubt. I’m pretty much insane -_-

Ok. To make me looks like I’m not insane, I’d start doing something different from now on.

I start READING :D

Seriously, the thickest thing I’ve ever gotten in contact with is my breakfast bread. Oh Seems like I’m creating a new record here :D Reading this book sure do.

yes

Also, I’ll try to sleep before midnight everyday.

Good nite :)

p.s: Tell me if you’ve found something new to do as well

Self-proclaimed project manager

Nov 12 2007 2:35 pm Published by Sir Mayo under event

Aunt May has finally decided to bring in some technology into her 2 little hardware and home improvement stores. She’s planning to put a computerized inventory system to manage her ever-growing number of products (more specifically, her stock cards).

As an IT graduate that is, I automatically become her advisor and also the executor.
Ok. Now you can call me Mr Project Manager. Aha

p.s.: Do you know how to create a page on Wikipedia? Maybe I should create a wiki page for the store as well. Hmm…

Bangi so small

Nov 11 2007 3:12 pm Published by Sir Mayo under sketch

Bangi is a small town.

It’s really small that you’d know exactly what’s your neighbour’s favourite colour if you were to live here.

Sunday breakfast session isn’t really a bad idea even though it has become a family custom which I find quite annoying sometimes [Sigh~ how many Sundays i can get to sleep until noon?]. We’d wake up and get on the car around 9am something to go meet up with other kinfolk for having breakfast somewhere in Semenyih, or occasionally, in Sungai Long or Seremban. [Hell. I guess you don't know where they are]

So, during the session, we’d chat and normally there’d be lots of stories from my aunties’ family side. You know… those uncool, idle but interesting [oh shit. I said it hehe] things like gossips, rantings, rumours, discount and people and etc. And since Bangi is so small, story-telling always starts with me like this:

“Hey is that second son of A-Kow your ex primary school classmate a?”
Me: “Hmm…. ya i think so…”
“You know right, he just ran off Bangi to somewhere because of a big shit of debt he’s owing to the bank! Somemore he….”
Me: “Oh I see… hmm… maybe it’s no like that…”

“Hey how old are you now a?”
Me: “22. Why?”
“Oh I think she’s the same old as you. Probably your ex- kindergarten classmate. Loke MiMi, you know her??”
Me: “I guess so… oh ya. I remember her.”
“Really? Oh My God… That day I saw her going out with a rather old guy. Apparently that old guy is quite rich one but not good-looking at all, and he’s 15 years older than her you know… I wonder why she wanna…bla bla bla”
Me: “Maybe she’s serious…”

It’s like my aunties know everybody in Bangi. In fact, they do. (o_0) Besides, those are not my imaginary dialogs actually. They are real, because they just took place this morning (-_-)

The point is, it’s either Bangi is really that small, or that the rumour about my auntie secretly went to take a degree in Mass Communication and passed with flying colours and then became the chief editor of a paparazzi magazine before she finally settled down with my uncle-in-law and became a full-time auntie, is true.

Speaking of gossips, I realised that I have a tendency of trying to “defend” for my ex- primary school classmates or childhood friends whenever I hear negative stuffs about them. Even though time has passed and they could have not been the same person I used to know, but I always have this kinda “hey they are not that bad ok” mindset. I always think that they are, and will always be the purest creature I’ve ever met.
[It's just like why you'd never have any sexual thought on your primary school teachers. haha]

I don’t know…

Are you like that too?

Hmm… Sometimes I really have to knock myself out of my head.

God damn it!

Official or not, I’m claimed to be a nerd. In fact, I’m not quite a brilliant one as I’ve just made my laptop died in a rather despicable manner – my laptop just won’t start and it keeps throwing me a “Problem looking for Operating System” black-and-white error [or something similar] (o_0)

Last night, I was trying to install a new Linux Operating System named Ubuntu [pardon my nerdiness aha] into my laptop, but then in the end I ended up with a void. The how-it-happened is kinda complicated [I don't remember much actually] and so I’d just jump to the conclusion – Believe it or not, I’m writing this post using my PC in the office right now (-_-)

*kua kua kua*

By the way, It’s not really a employee misconduct hor? It’s just like a 5-minute kinda stuff, and I think email-checking takes longer time.

NO?

Hmm… Oh I see.
*smiling naively while pretending like nothing just happened*

Anyway, hopefully my laptop will be up by today
Wish me good luck

A Need?

Nov 06 2007 5:53 pm Published by Sir Mayo under quotes

“Having a relationship has become something like a need for me. But I don’t remember when that started.”

I told that to Jen a few days ago.

It’s just… wow.
Can’t believe I actually said that.

Yea, I think I’m right.

When you go without something long enough, you’ll realise it’s everything. (o_o)
