Good Bye KL and Hello Penang~~~!!! Posted by chiechek , Wednesday, 27 October 2010 at 23:20, in Labels: cheras, kuala lumpur, student life, UCSI

This is the post that I should post up since I graduated from UCSI...but however due to certain issues (busy??? laziness???), so it delays till today only I post it up. So why do I say good bye KL? stupid question right? Of course it is due to I am gonna to leave KL and go back my hometown, Penang. (which actually I am in Penang now) :p

Good Bye KL~~~!!! :p

Stayed in KL for four years...for study...for eat...for living....for joys....of course for friends...KL did bring me a lot of sweet memories and also sad stories :p ok...let's put the sad stories to apart...I can juz selectively forget whatever I don't wan to remember. It doens't sound great? hahaha... At first, I not really like KL and you can even say I hate KL. I think some of my friends know about that. I juz dislike becoz it is dirty (Pudu bus station really impressed me a lot), crowded (obviously KL do hav a lot people there...Malays...Chineses...Indians...and of course those foreigner such as nigerian, chineses from china and indonesia...you can even see those foriegner workers gathering in front of the Pudu Bus Station) and lastly the traffic (the traffic in KL is always congested...you can't ever agree more than this right?)

Out sort of those 'disavantages' of KL, you also can't really deny that KL is also quite attractive. In what sense??? of course, this city is full of entertainment such as shopping complexs, KTV, cinemas, bars, lounges and clubs :p Even you hav the best entertainment in the city but you don't hav companions, you also won't enjoy right? So, I hav bunch of friends to study together, eat together, play together and drink together. Hey...my buddies....are you all missing me??? hahaha...

So...reveal my little room which cantonese said as 'dog nest' :p I juz hav a small room and the air ventilation here is huge gradient between day and night. Day time it juz like sauna there...you can bake youself inside my room...Night time...it juz like a fridge...you can be an ice stick inside my room...althought it is juz a tiny room but thw house owner is really nice and I appreciate him for letting me to stay in his house...Arigato...Uncle~~~!!! :)

So after graduated, all of us was thrown to different places to work...(kedah, penang, perak, selangor, kl, terrenganu...bla bla bla....) And I was luckily to get posted to penang which is my hometown. Of course, the working life started and I am working 'adult' now...so in the future I will share more about my working experience to you all...stay tune~~~!!! :p

An Easy IDD Call through iTalkWhoa! Posted by chiechek , Monday, 14 June 2010 at 01:33, in Labels: advertorial, iTalk Whoa

What is IDD call? IDD is stand for International Direct Dialling which is an international telephone call dialled by the caller rather than going via an operator. So how can we make the call? International calls are made by dialling the international call prefix for the country one is in, followed by the country calling code for the country one wishes to call, then the phone number within that country. When phone numbers are published for use abroad, they typically include the country calling code, but replace the international call prefix with "+" to signify that the caller should use the prefix appropriate for their country.

There is roughly concept about the IDD call. When we need the IDD call? Don't scold me stupid because I asked such stupid question. The main reason for you to use the IDD call must be someone that you want to call is currently not in local which mean may be he/she is currently at oversea. As we know that, the rate to make an international call is not really cheap at all. It may juz cost up to few hundred ringit for a monthly bill. If you got anyone important stay at oversea or yourself is going to oversea and you just can't lost contact with anyone in local, then you have to be prepared to pay a huge amount for making the call.

However, currently iTalkWhoa! is offering some relatively cheap package for you to make the IDD call. You can enjoy the lowest rate of making the international call. The calling rate is as lowest as RM0.05/min for you to call to USA no matter fixed or mobile line. Attractive right? You not only can make the international call through phone but you also can make the call through the computer. And it is really easy to use iTalkWhoa! through computer because it is well-designed and user-friendly. It is really convienient for everyone and you can just make the call anywhere and anytime.

Perhaps one day I will just go oversea for further study or my sister will do so. I think that iTalkWhoa! will definitely a good choice for me to make call back to Malaysia. I can just enjoy the calling and talking to my family without worry about the high amount of phone calling gonna charged on me. We can just keep in touch daily. :)

For further information, please refer to http://www.italkwhoa.com/ or just ask from me :)

No Strings Attached Posted by chiechek , Monday, 12 April 2010 at 16:23, in Labels: advertorial, nuffnang, Project Alpha

No strings attached??? What does it mean??? What I can imagine is the internet that do not need any cable or wire...In other word, it mean that wireless broadband. As I mentioned in previous post, we are now able to enjoy the wireless broadband due to the technology development. It is not a dream now that you can online everywhere.

Why we need the development of technology? It is because technology development definitely improve our quality of life style. We can enjoy the wonderful moment in our life and it does really bring the convinient to us. However, we should neither get lazy or too rely on the technology. Come to the wireless stuff! Now we can just online in anywhere as long as we in the coverage of the internet. Yup, you are not dreaming, our country really is developing and it will grow advancely in one day. You no need to restrict to online on your table but you can now online everywhere even on your bed or toilet. You can stick to your facebook or google 24 hour at everywhere.

The speed of the internet is getting faster as well and you not need to complain the turtle speed of the internet connection anymore. Lagging~~~!!! I think most probably we are not going to listen such complain on the internet service anymore since our government is going to develop and improve their internet cable which is going to upgrade to the optic cable in few years time. Then, our internet connection speed can increase in few turns. So, the wireless broadband will definitely the first choice of everyone. In the future, noone will attached to the string and neither the internet.

WE DON'T WANT THE STRING ATTACHED~~!!!

My Favourite Sport Posted by chiechek , Monday, 5 April 2010 at 19:14, in Labels: advertorial, nuffnang, Project Alpha

Sport~~~!!! This week our topic is My Favourite Sport. It is kinda interesting topic because I love sport a lot. Just let me list down what are the sports that I love to play and perhaps one of them is one of your favourite sport.

Badminton

Football

Basketball

Tennis

Table Tennis

Swimming

Hahaha... I am really sport lover and the above sports are those I usually play with my friends. You can say that I am not really concentrate on the only sport. But I really enjoy with such many sports because all of them have their unique characteristic that attract me.

Why I love sport?

It need a lot of concentration and determination.

It develop skill and confidence.

And of course~~~!!! I ENJOY THE GLORY MOMENT~~~~!!!!

 The Winning with Sweat~~~!!!

My most favourite sport is badminton which main likely I can now play with my coursemates frequently as compared to the other sports. I used to play at least twice per week and all the time the match is really challenging because my friends improved their skill everyday. I also need to improve to catch up their pace. They absolutely a good badminton players, perhaps not the best badminton player but the best badminton companions. We normally will play for 2 hours and it will be a double match if there are enough players. If there is lack of the player, we will play the single and it is really cost me a lot of energy. I do not really have a system to improve the badminton skill but I just try to learn in the match.

 

In the badminton match, you may like to  smack whenever you got chance. But you have to look for the greatest chance to smack. If not, you will only waste your energy.

Here is few tips for you when you play badminton (sources: wikipedia):

Doubles

Both pairs will try to gain and maintain the attack, smashing downwards when possible. Whenever possible, a pair will adopt an ideal attacking formation with one player hitting down from the rearcourt, and his partner in the midcourt intercepting all smash returns except the lift. If the rearcourt attacker plays a dropshot, his partner will move into the forecourt to threaten the net reply. If a pair cannot hit downwards, they will use flat strokes in an attempt to gain the attack. If a pair is forced to lift or clear the shuttlecock, then they must defend: they will adopt a side-by-side position in the rear midcourt, to cover the full width of their court against the opponents' smashes. In doubles, players generally smash to the middle ground between two players in order to take advantage of confusion and clashes.

At high levels of play, the backhand serve has become popular to the extent that forehand serves almost never appear in professional games. The straight low serve is used most frequently, in an attempt to prevent the opponents gaining the attack immediately. Flick serves are used to prevent the opponent from anticipating the low serve and attacking it decisively.

At high levels of play, doubles rallies are extremely fast. Men's doubles is the most aggressive form of badminton, with a high proportion of powerful jump smashes.

Singles

The singles court is narrower than the doubles court, but the same length. Since one person needs to cover the entire court, singles tactics are based on forcing the opponent to move as much as possible; this means that singles strokes are normally directed to the corners of the court. Players exploit the length of the court by combining lifts and clears with drop shots and net shots. Smashing is less prominent in singles than in doubles because players are rarely in the ideal position to execute a smash, and smashing often leaves the smasher vulnerable if the smash is returned.

In singles, players will often start the rally with a forehand high serve. Low serves are also used frequently, either forehand or backhand. Flick serves are less common, and drive serves are rare.

At high levels of play, singles demands extraordinary fitness. Singles is a game of patient positional manoeuvring, unlike the all-out aggression of doubles. 

With the tips, You may be the next Lin Dan.

Even you can't be Lin Dan, You may also be the next Taufik or Lee Chong Wei

Badminton is really an interesting sport which you really need a lot of stamina and skill. You will definitely love it if you have tried it. You will really like to sweat and fight for the glory in the badminton court. You also can learn never give up in the court.

If you are really interested on badminton and wish to know more about the rules and regulations of badminton, you can just visit Badminton World Federation. There got the simplified rules that help you to know more about the badminton.

So, See you all in badminton court lo ~~!!! :)
