It’s really inspiring to see the chatter on twitterverse about peeps going out on their own. Discovered a new word through the chatter: solopreneur. Pfft. Sorry, but I just cringe by the sound of it. It’s like not another “preneur” word. But hey, you got to move together with the trends & time when you start doing business for yourself. I prefer the phrase “likes doing stuff”. Maybe it’s just me.
It does bring back memories, I mean when I observed the chatter happening. I feel jealous at the same time as well. Because it reminds me of how fun & exciting it was when you start going out on your own. I got seriously interested with entertainment with buddies & eventually left classes for fun. Seriously, it was really fun doing stuff in entertainment. Although the job was as an online community manager AKA leader for groupies, it was an actual result of a previous experiment I performed: KJROLLERS. And it began from a ICQ message window. Another strange experiment. But that’s the strange thing: everything is like an experiment.
Going solo was the best experiment I’ve ever performed.
And I tell ya, the result was pure satisfaction and pure horror. Not scary horror, but you somehow discover that inner, deep, dark self you thought you never had. Kinda like some face time with your Darkside. Patience & presevere, that’s the Force.
With a good real job at hand, I can only suppress the Force & the Darkside, but there are leaks, somewhere in the soul, that prevents me from being restrained. That’s probably one reason why I couldn’t stop doing stuff. But I remembered the ugly horror 5 years ago, it was so ugly I just stop… slow down. At times you just need to…………
That’s me and my buddy, Edosh, founder of Kendama Malaysia & also a fellow rollerblader. This was taken, if I’m not mistaken, late last year, where I attended my buddy Anuar, wedding ceremony.
That’s Rahul, band leader of One Buck Short. The band has put together resources & worked on an idea that I’ve heard so, so, so many times repeatedly when I was managing them. You might think I could have listened to one person from the band about the idea, but actually, all 4 of them, and including Sen, was talking all about it from day one I took over from Adrian. 2 years down the road, it finally came true. And it’s all because of themselves. That’s how you make it big in the music business, from my point of view. With your own pure effort. More excitingly, it’s with your friends. In music, you need all the friends you can make. Good, real friends.
Today, I’m going to lecture you about losing weight. And we geeks need to keep in shape. A healthy body leads to a healthy, active mind. Oddly enough, after 6 months of undergoing a major weight loss training, I find that quote alarmingly true. Very true. Listen geeks: We need to keep in shape if we want to rule the world!
Muahahahahahahahahahahahahaha… (with a thumbdrive at the edge of my mouth. No, not my pinky. But my pinky thumbdrive. Muahahahaha…)
I’m actually too lazy to write a long post, naturally because it’s a lazy Sunday.
Ok, here’s the scenario: In January 2009, I clocked almost 95 kg and was about to buy a size 40 pants. That’s massively overweight for a person my size. Now, in June 2009, I’m 75 78 kg and size 34.
“I’m Your Web Geek for Today” or in short, WHYG42DAY, is a new initiative that I’m starting in the name of evagelising good karma. Having been a web designer & developer for almost 11 years, I’ve been challenged over and over again by life, testing my patience & determination, while I hacked my way thru life. That’s how it is, I hacked my way thru life (thanks to @limyh for describing me in that way). I never finished college, which I’m glad & thankful for even after those struggling years. I’ve made enemies along the way. And of course, I’ve made new, exciting and trustworthy friends & colleagues. Somehow, there’s always a balance in the end of the path I’ve tread, it was just only a matter of time and thought for me to take notice of it. Read more…
I’m home grounded and I am bored. So, I made this instead. It’s actually my normal route, but feel free to add more markers with links to the camera feed. Certainly would be a helpful.
I hangout here when I was kid, all the way from SS3 to SS14. Remember Pineapple Computers store at the top floor? I used to go there with my dad to buy those floppy disk games like MechWarrior, Destruction Derby, Flight Simulator and a lot more I can’t remember. They had like boxes and boxes of floppy disk games, and I think it was on the shady side of copyright laws. But it was an experience. And of course, the video games arcade at the back. The Jaya Sports store. The Bata shop. Guardian pharmacy wayyyyyyyyy back when they still had the original blue colored type. The Hing Wah watch store where I bought my 1st watch until the watch that I am wearing today. The Famous Amos. Ahhh, Dave’s Deli. The 1st Dave’s Deli me thinks. Memories. Memories.
Better Than Ezra new song, “Absolutely Still”. They sound a little bit mellow, don’t they?
I used to cover Better Than Ezra’s “Good” with my old Scouts band. I think I’ve performed 3 times in high school. Although we didn’t sound that good, but we had super duper fun!
