T3-ed

successfully 'crawled' through my CAAS interview this afternoon... it lasted from 2.15-4.10pm... almost 2hrs... cus i was required to take some tests before going for interview... i tink i'm the 1 to blame lah cus i spent more than an hr for the tests lol...

the interview was considered not bad bah... although i did saw a shake of head from one of the 3 interviewers :P cus he asked me if i prefered a job tat is more stable, or a job tat haf changes now n then... i replied a stable job, then i saw the head movement lol... but other parts r ok loh... i believed most qns they asked i gave them the rite reply... except for tat particular 1... hope tat's not the qns tat costed me this job opportunity hahaha...

cus i got a bad feeling if this interview goes wrong... tat panasonic opening might not be available anymore :P

anywayz... today's interview was almost cancelled due to the fact tat 1 of the interviewer was down with flu... i told the HR tat another company is awaiting my reply to accept their job offering... so the easliest i could postpone it was till next mon or tues... end up today's interview was given a 'go-ahead'...

so met up with vin for lunchie at T1's canteen... then he 'escorted' me to around to T2, to the CAAS office where i had my tests n interviews...

after everytingy... i took the skytrain to T3 to haf a look... since its opening i haf yet to visit it... the area ok only loh... not much designs in the interior leh... n the aircon oso not tat strong as compared to T1 & T2... n only now then i realised tat the mrt station is just rite below T3 lol... i nv really walked the full length of T3, cus it's so desserted n noting much specical... so i turned around n took mrt home lol...

went down to EXPO ytd morning with JG... go there for Adidas Sales/Popular Fair/Robinson Sales... bought a rim of A4 size paper from popular fair... then on the Adidas sales... thgt of getting some shorts, T's n jerseys... but was kinda disappointed... found a blue jersey tat i like but no size... only left XL... i tried it on but was too big for me... lol

then went to robinson sales... alot of stuffs loh... got myself 2 OP shorts $19.90each n a Hush Puppies Tshirt for $16... thgt i would spend quite alot at Adidas... but end up i only bought from Robinson sales... instead JG bought alot loh... from Adidas n Robinson... abt a total of $270? lol... cus he bought shirts n pants for work, n some for his family oso lol...







i not much $ left liaoz... so cant spend too much... need to keep abt 1.2k for 2months of bills n left only abt $150 for the next month expenses :P gonna chase BK for my $1K liaoz... if still cannot pay me, i will include interest of $100 per week lol... to make up for my losses... i hate tinking abt $ when i'm searching for a job... i will hinder me from finding the rite job... then i will not acknowledge a him as a frend after i get my $ back...

==========

this afternoon went to DownTownEast for lunch/movie with Vin/JC/JG... watched Indiana Jones... movie was not bad... but the sound effects of the cinema was kinda sux... but it was Cathay cinema loh... then the aircon was like turned to freezing temperature loh... 1st time i felt so cold in a cinema hahaha...

but this is the 1st time i go there since it was upgraded... the play looks rather nice... the building is mainly occupied by restaurants n kids amusement parks more suitable for family outings...

then we to JG hse in evening to play his Wii... the Mario Kart game was nice... it can be play online somemore... n it's free to do so cus Wii has got Wi-Fi... no need to subscribe to anytingy... just need to haf internet connection at home... then there's the arcade game Ghost Squad... i find it's the best shooting game for Wii... maybe cus it's much more easier to play as compared to Resident Evil lol...

since we were playing game... we decided to order pizza for dinner... when it came, i was surprise to see it was neither Pizza-hut nor Canadian pizza... it was Rite Pizza... to me it's new loh... n it taste really nice too... the crust is quite thin n the 2 pizzas we ordered r rather nice... but i like the Super Spicy Chicken more than the Ocean Delite... maybe next time can order from them liaoz...

how to put songs in blog?

to wat i know, there r 3 ways to play songs in blogs...

1) play ONLY 1 song in the background of the blog with an embeded code, this is the simplest way... u just need to upload the song to an online storage place, n paste the link of the song in the code...

i'm using sg.geocities.yahoo.com to store the songs, but it could only store max 15mb n can only upload any file tat is less than 5mb

since the song is played in the background... therefore it will auto play, n there's no "stop" button

CODE:


the LOOP=TRUE will make the song play over n over again, if it's put to FALSE, it will only play once...

EXAMPLE:


go to ur blog, Layout... Edit Html... u can put the code anywhere in the template... but to simplify things, just scroll down to the end of the template n put the code above the /html tag

2a) play only 1 or more than 1 song with an embed mini windows media player in the blog... similarly, the song need to be uploaded somewhere... n the link of the song is pasted in the code... of cus the code is different...

CODE:


some meanings of the codes in here:
param value="true" name="AutoStart"... the player will auto play, if "false" u will haf to click play urself
param value="full" name="uiMode"... player will haf full function, or "mini" will just haf play/stop/volume functions, or "none"
param value="9999" name="PlayCount"... u can limit the song to play as many as 1 to 9999 times
param value="true" name="enabled"... this will enable the controls of the player (eg. play/stop)
param value="false" name="enableContextMenu... this will prevent anyone from right clicking over the player


EXAMPLE:


this code can be added to the blog by using the "Add a page element" function in the Layout... choose "html/javascript", then put the code in there n save it...

2b) in order to play more than 1 song, u need to upload all the songs somewhere 1st... next, u need to write a code in the notepad n put the links of the songs in the code, then save it as .m3u file...


CODE:
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:ARTIST NAME - SONG TITLE
LINK OF UR UPLOADED SONG
#EXTINF:ARTIST NAME - SONG TITLE
LINK OF UR UPLOADED SONG
#EXTINF:ARTIST NAME - SONG TITLE
LINK OF UR UPLOADED SONG
#EXTINF:ARTIST NAME - SONG TITLE
LINK OF UR UPLOADED SONG
#EXTINF:Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love (EXAMPLE)
http://sg.geocities.com/...../bleedinglove.mp3 (EXAMPLE)

after tat, u need to upload this .m3u file somewhere (geocities cannot accept .m3u files)... next u just need to paste the link of the m3u file u uploaded, into the code as in part 2a
EXAMPLE:


3) the last type is to create a playlist at some online music sites eg.http://www.imeem.com/, u need to sign up of cus(its free)... then either upload ur songs or use the songs already uploaded by other users in there... create a playlist n put the songs in it...

then copy n paste the code they provide at Layout, "Add a page element" n choose "html/javascript"

one thing abt this site is some of the songs(mainly english) r copyrighted, so can listen only 30sec, unless the song is uploaded by urself... also it needs time for their database to update, meaning the 1st time u upload tat song, u might only be able to listen to 30sec of it... but it will be alrite after a day or less...

Realisation: Not Ready for Love

been watching ch8 tv series on mobTV lately... cus got lots of free time :P n cus i missed those shows last time... so now got time can watch them online...

just finished watching Honour and Passion aka 保家卫国, a show toking abt our army... but wat interest me most in the show r the relationship problems they haf...

then it kinda make me realised again... i dont really know wat is love, how to love... i'm not ready for it...

1. i didnt do much of a thing to express my love
2. i didnt persist on wat i felt was love, i gave up after 1 defect
3. when i didnt give up, i was too stubborn to move on
4. all my feelings r one-sided

well... to conclude, sadly... it's better not to love

cheated??

felt so cheated by a job agency (dont wanna name it cus scare later kana sued)... it's been abt 1 week already bah? went there do a short interview with the agency... told me there r abt 3 jobs suitable for me... i find only 2 of them tat i'm keen on going to an interview, cus of the location n the type of job... so the guy told me he could send in my resume to the 2 companies... n wait for their replies n full details of the job... n get prepared for the interviews

they did told me there r a few other candidates too... but i thgt since they say they would send in my resumes to the companies, y is it tat till now i still nv receive any emails or phone calls from either side? felt so cheated loh...

i dont wanna call the agency to check on it... i felt i'm being betrayed, i would rather continue to look elsewhere...

at most when my resources r really empty then i go do part time 1st... or get some of the saving out from my insur. savings plan :P

another way... i'm willing to lost a frend to get my $1k back... hahaha

Oasis-ed

went to the newly relocated OASIS restaurant @ toa payoh lor 6, just behind the swimming complex @ the toa payoh town park... had our belated mummy day dinner tis evening... cus last week was fully booked...

the new place is ok lah... although still prefer the old location by the sea... its got full length glass windows, gd for scenic view but bad cus the sun shines directly into the restaurant... n there r no curtains...

the food... standard kinda dropped, alot haha... n the price kinda increased too... 6pax 7 dishes abt $112 loh... last time it wasnt so EX leh...

oso not much parking lots... worst would be park at the hdb hub there n cross the overhead bridge


far view of the new OASIS restaurant

伍家辉 - 虽然我愿意

请让我靠近你轻轻对你说
别让我每个夜为你受折磨
是多么不容易才默默放手

为了我就当作这次为了我
别让我因为你被回忆折磨
而空气凝结了我们的脸孔
我别无选择

就算我们之间有什么问题
依然想念着你
虽然被放弃
虽然我愿意

就算我们之间有什么难题
黑夜我还想着你
心碎人孤寂
虽然我愿意

再让我靠近你轻轻对你说
当我说我要你从此好好过
是真的否则我怎么肯放手

为了我就当作这次为了我
赐给我你现在幸福的笑容
别让恨冻结了我们的脸孔
请你做选择

就算我们之间有什么问题
依然想念着你
虽然被放弃
虽然我愿意

就算我们之间有什么难题
黑夜我还想着你
心碎人孤寂
虽然我愿意

心碎人孤寂
虽然我愿意
就算我们之间有什么问题
依然想念着你
虽然被放弃
虽然我愿意

就算我们之间有什么难题
黑夜我还想着你
心碎人孤寂
虽然我愿意
(心还想着你)

7 reasons the world will end in 2012

saw this interesting thread on a forum...

Scientific experts from around the world are genuinely predicting that five years from now, all life on Earth could well finish. Some are saying it'll be humans that set it off. Others believe that a natural phenomenon will be the cause. And the religious folks are saying it'll be God himself who presses the stop button...

http://www.msghelp.net/showthread.php?tid=74463

not sure if it would be true... but i sure hope it would really end by 2012 lol... i seriously tink the world needs a reboot...

1 little 2 little 3 little fuses...

ytd my starhub digital set top box in the living room "went up the lorry"... near the evening somemore... called the customer service they said they could only come n fix 2day evening 4-6pm...

there was power to the set top box... only there's no picture n there's this yellow LED above the msg icon on the set top... so i check the set top box in my room... everything was ok... then i decided to bring the set top in my room to the living room... cus my parents n bro would be watching tv... i still got my PC so i'm ok without tv for 1 nite...

when i try to use the spoil set top box in my room... it suddenly give out a spark where the power cord was attached to... i check the fuse in the plug, the fuse blew... so i use the power cord from the gd set top box n try on the spoil 1... same tingy, the fuse of the cord blew... then i had 1 gd set top box n 1 spoil set top box... both with spoil power cord...

so farking sian loh... n the best tingy is, they r not using normal 13Amp fuse... instead they r using 3Amp fuse... so i went down to the shops to check if they sell 3Amp fuse... all said they only haf 13Amp fuses...

then i decided to go all the way to people's park centre to get the fuses... there's 1 shop on the 3rd flr sell all sorts of electronic stuffs... i bought some fuses there while working for fuji xerox lol... it was evening time n everyone was rushing into the mrt stations... i alighted at raffles place mrt... cus i dont wanna switch trains... so i walked from there to chinatown...

reach liaoz the shop told me they only got 5Amp left... i was tinking ok lah not tat much diff... so bought 5 for $1... came home to try n it worked... but i still dont feel rite so checked the internet to see if its ok to use a 5Amp fuse instead of a 3Amp fuse... haha i was making a terrible mistake by using a 5Amp fuse loh... i am risking the gd set top box from burning up if there was a short... so i took it out n 2nite no starhub channels for the family... only normal sg channels lol...

then this morning i went down to sim lim tower to get 3Amp fuses... reason becus i can't wait till the technician come in the evening... n i dont wanna try to explain to the technician how come 1 set top box spoil n 2 power cords fuse blow... plus if the fuses were to blow again in the future i can just replace them...

i know i can just go down to the starhub customer centre to make 1 to 1 exchange if the tings spoil... but travel down with the set top box abit troublesome... lol

so i bought 6x 3Amp fuses at sim lim tower just now... but each of the fuses cost $0.80 loh... so expensive... 6 means $4.80 loh hai~... oso finally got a blower, those use to blow away dusts... it cost $5.60 sia... i should've kept the 1 fuji xerox gave me... sian...

now just gotta wait for the starhub guys to come n fix my set top box...

3Amp fuse
