Cocoa Break

Finally downloaded the new Windows Live Messenger 8.5. Seen it on my sister’s notebook since she got her new Packard Bell notebook but didn’t get the urge to upgrade as I thought it was a special edition for Windows Vista. Lol! Little did I know that it is available for all. Also, I didn’t feel the need to upgrade since I didn’t hear any great new features about it. Yet, I feel glad that I listened to my dearest Ms Siti Sahidah and upgraded it.

Firstly, it looks better than before! It has that Vista feel and I love it! As I am still using XP on my Fujitsu notebook, any thing that has a better sense of colour is greatly appreciated. Yeah yeah I’ve heard it a thousand times. It is a copy of Mac OS. So what? What matters to me is it looks good. Of course I really hope Microsoft can copy the efficiency of Mac OS too. =x Either that or Microsoft should deploy a group of elite virus writers to attack Mac OS’s loopholes and find all its vulnerabilities. Then we can see who is more efficient at safe guarding the OS after many security patches. We then can compare you loads faster into its Graphical User Interface. …

Happily doing my school work at the wonderful forum when there was a sudden blast of Line dance music. Almost blew my brains out…You don’t even know where the crowd came from. It is like a blood rush when you a person gets excited.

Well since I couldn’t concentrate on my work, I decided to snap a pic of the dancers. They weren’t in sync but everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Well…guess everything is fun when you do it with a certain group of people. Here’s how they looked like….

Time is money. I am sure, for most of you, this is not the first time you are hearing this. This is a big issue for me. I want to do so many things but I am fighting for time. Too many commitments. If only I don’t need to sleep. Then I could do things in that 8 long hours.

I’ve once argued with a guy, shall not mention his name here, about how multi-tasking affects work output. The fella mentioned how he could multi-task doing all the things without any worry. The things he says he does:

1. Web Design
2. Programming
3. Photo shoots
4. Photo Edit
5. Filming
6. Video Edit
7. 3D Modeling
8. Socialize.
9. Daily routine activities.

I honestly think this guy was just crap. He said he does his web design while filming and taking pictures. It is just total bullshit to me. How is that possible? I argued, even if he does so, it is gonna be crap output. As humans we are only given 1 pair of hands. How does he snap a photo while designing on his notebook? Where will his eyes focus at? The pinhole on his still camera, camcorder or his laptop screen? This fella is just crap to me.

But as crappy as he is, he managed to steal 30 mins of my time to argue with him. Well enough about him. This is suppose to be about me. I don’t have enough time to clear all the things that I want/need to do.

I have too many commitments I guess… school, a job, entrepreneurial work, relationships (including family and friends). I don’t have time to manage all… sometimes I feel like isolating myself from everyone just to clear my school and entrepreneurial work. Yes, it is that important to me. Now I realize that I can’t achieve big things without “hurting” or letting down the people around me.

I hope someday, everyone will understand what I am going through. Everyone needs the space and support to achieve their dreams. Instead what I get are complaint about me not spending enough time with everybody. I don’t wish to work for the rest of my life receiving SGD2.5K every month till I die. I wish to be a millionaire by the age of 30.

Probably many of you are saying, “Yah right, dream on Deen!”. Well, call me a dreamer. It takes a man to imagine big stuffs I would say. If Michael Dell could make Billions I don’t understand why I can’t dream of Millions. For those in my position, you’ll know exactly how I feel. Well, hope I could make it big someday soon…

Ok this is kinda freaky. Man on Mars?! What do you guys think? Is that really a man? I really wonder how that man could survive without food, water and a woman!!!Let’s try to come out with a logical reasoning for that clip… I came out with a few ideas of my own. Here are my thoughts.

1. NASA faked the whole thing. They could have gotten the Astronauts to put a figure there and take a picture from a distance.
   Why? They probably did so because they needed some fame since they’ve been having lots of expeditions and research done but have yet to show any form of result. Nor are they showing that what they are doing is something good for human kind. They probably also fear that Asia might take over them soon since China and even Malaysia are now having their own space expeditions.
2. It was just a rock?
3. It was a fossilized creature that was also made from the image of GOD? Probably from their most recent “Ice age” or when the big asteroid hit Mars?
4. NASA accidentally took a picture of the Gobi desert instead of Mars.

Oh well, I don’t know how it works but I have a strong feeling that my point number 1 is the most probable reason. What do you think?

Ok, this really pisses me off. I should not have ran Sony Ericsson’s Update Service. The thought of keeping up with times should not have crossed my mind at all coz now, it had destroyed one of my favourite funtions in P1i!

Business Card Scanner doesn’t work as it used to. Now it scans ONLY in  Macro, Black and White! What the F! Not ony does it take a picture in Greyscale, when I browse for a picture I had taken in colour using the camera function, the Business Card Scanner converts the picture into black and white and then reads it. I can’t change the mode into anything else.! No, none of it works. Negative, Sephia, Solarization and default None doesn’t work! What the hell is wrong? It was working fine in colour before the service update!

Whats the point of taking a picture of a Coloured Name Card when the phone saves it as Black and White? Sony Ericsson developers! I hope you hear me. Now I feel lost with my phone…it is like walking around in Laced Shoes without the laces…

My rating of Sony Ericsson’s Software just dropped to 2 out of 10! It works but not working the way it should be!
