The End of the First Half

Today marks the end of the first half of the year. Apparently nothing has changed much in my life except to admit that I'm getting a bit stronger financially, but not better!

My daily life has been getting busier nowadays with jobs and other personal matters. I have been experiencing lots of new challenges lately and enjoying all of them to the max. I guess that's how a human life should work: Work, Earn and Spend!

Lets see how the second half of the year will be in store for me!

Movie Buff

Been watching lots of movies at cinema lately.

Wolverine, Terminator Salvation, Transformers 2.

With Harry Potter and G.I.Joe coming soon, it's hard to resist the temptation.

Sad...

This few days were filled with sad news and moments in my life.

Michael Jackson passed away a few days ago at a very young age of 50 (still considered young, isn't it?). Even though I'm not a big fan of him, I still considered him as a person who is very important in shaping pop music, earning him the title of "King of Pop". Rest in peace, MJ!

And, just this morning, I had to bring my grandma, who used to be a lively and friendly person, to the Sentosa Hospital as she is starting to show some symptoms of mental illness. She appeared to become a completely different person than before, preferring to keep quiet and talking nonsense from time to time. I feel very sad to see her like this but there is nothing I can do except to bring her to see doctor, hoping that medicines given by the doctor will be able to ease her suffering.

Haih, human life is really unpredictable!

A Rumor

Heard a rumor from my colleague today that our position in our company is insecure. We could be terminated. Suddenly I can imagine my boss holding a shotgun, becoming a Terminator just like in the movie and terminate us. Huh, how scary it is!

Hope that the rumor remains as a rumor!

Pre-ordered A Toy Online!

For the first time ever, I pre-ordered and buy a product online. Being shameful to have admitted it, I felt like I had been living under a rock of e-commerce before this as millions of people have been buying products online before me.

The constant fear of being cheated and not getting the product I want has been the primary factor which stopped me from doing e-commerce, but upon seeing this product, I decided that I should set aside all the fears and make my move. Furthermore, I trusted this company and hopefully they won't disappoint me too!

The product that I pre-ordered (yes, it will only be release in either July/August 2009) is a TOY, a T-800 Heavy Machine Gunner version made famous by Arnold Schwarzennegger from the movie Terminator 2 Judgment Day. It was manufactured by a famous company called Neca. What makes me attracted to this figure was that the sculpting of the face bears a very accurate resemblance of Arnie! Furthermore, having a mini-gun besides him as evidence in the photo shown below made it way even cooler!




Total damages for me: RM59.90 (price of the figure, quite reasonable!) + RM12.00 (shipping fees) = RM71.90. I'm sure the price will sky-rocketed in the future when stocks has run out in the market. Hope to receive the goodies soon!

I'm A Lucky Winner!

I would like to thank KuchingBloggers.com for selecting me as one of the lucky winner of 2 pieces of movie tickets for the recently held 5th Star Movie Carnival 2009 from 12 to 14 June 2009.

I was ashamed and disappointed to say that I didn't go and claim my prize due to work commitment. Somehow, I was really surprised and happy for being selected as a lucky winner!

Thanks KuchingBloggers!

What? 10 Days?

Oh oh, just realized that I haven't update my blog for ten days already. Wow, that's "amazing"!

Been very very busy recently with jobs and working as a part-time delivery boy cum driver, helping my friend to transport goods. It isn't a really tough job, just requiring lots of concentration and time driving on the roads. Regarding the pay, so-so only-lah. In other words, enough to survive alone-lah!
