My car got clamped today

For the first time since I had my car 5 years ago, it got clamped today! Hmm... should we call for a celebration???

Went to do a DNA sequencing workshop for UPM Faculty of Biotech and came out later to find that my car was securely clamped despite it was parked at a proper parking. Apparently the security there thought my car was a student's car. And most parkings around here are meant for staffs.

Sigh.... so I had to take the summone and run around with help from a technician to get it unclamped later. Only get to go home around 7pm. :P

Autumn Farewell - My favorite pic of the day

Was surfing around for some sample pictures on the camera I am planning to buy -- Panasonic Lumix FZ7, and I found a wonderful site filled with beautifully crafted pics by this guy named Jose Mata.

It shows this pic of a fallen leaf, which signifies the end of autumn. Such harmony colors, with good control of shadows and lightings.

Jose Mata took this picture with a simple semi pro FZ7 with no extra techniques or special lense. To me, it once again shows it doesn't take much to be a great photographer, but a creative sharp eyes.

Movie Thumbs Up - The Prestige

Have you ever came across a situation, the whole thing feel so pleasant, that you wish it would never end? Just like a book with a story that got you so engrossed, a high sophisticated taste you come savouring in your mind from time to time.


That is how I felt about The Prestige now. With wonderful actings from Hugh Jackman, Christian Bale, and of course my favorite actor Michael Caine, Christopher Nolan made a mesmerizing story on how two close magicians became rivalry of each other.


It has been a while since I seen movie with interesting plot like The Prestige. Even the dialogue in between contained so many clues and hints to the whole story. So much so long after the movie ended, I can't help but try to linger on why Christian Bale's wife would have a secret she wants to let Scarlett Johansson know, and why Hugh Jackman had a gun with his transporter, and this and that. At the end I just though I would want to watch it again!


Do watch it, as it brings a lot of thinking, pondering to it's audience, instead of the no brainer 'Open Reason' that is showing now as well.

By the way, David Bowie is in the movie as well. "Are you watching closely?", if yes, I am sure you will be able to spot him here and there. :-)

      I Miss You

      No matter how I wait I cant go
      next to you, crying
      You only gave me pain and you didnt know me
      Are you telling me to leave?

      I miss you, I miss you
      To the point where I hate myselfI want to cry..
      I want to kneel down
      And if only everything didnt happen..
      The memories where I loved you crazily..
      Those memories haunt me
      But i cant hide from this love any longer
      I shouldnt do thisBut i miss you to death x2

      Life Sucks? SNORT IT OUT THEN!

      I think I have quite enough of this whole shit. Tomorrow onwards I am going to do things my own way, and all happy about it.

      Ah... tomorrow is another day it is...
