Ever since I started renovating the house my mind is like falling into pieces - a mess. I cant remember the tasks properly. My schedule runs up and down where I keep confuse what to do on which days. Best is I even lost track of the date, like I am living in the time tunnel that has no definition of time.
For example, CP told me on 2nd Nov that the uniqlo opening event is on the 4 Nov, but I mixed up and sms her on the 3rd. Then, YYF told me BGT is reserved, but I mixed up that I have completed it and so I missed it a day later. It is rather strange as I do remember all the events and tasks, but it just my mind mixes up the schedule like the clock low on battery and confused in time...
I don't know if this is due to the reno, or it is myself who is thinking too much lately. Gotta fix this deviation before it is too late, or I think I will be drifted away from reality...

Dell Vostro 230s
I must admit, I was a little too drama with the Dell customer contact center. Follow up with the previous episodes, I called them up again since I did not receive any follw up call from them. This time, I requested to change from desktop to laptop.
Well you cant blame me though. After the blow up case, you cant expect me to use the same model again waiting and expect it not to explode again? So I file in my request and again, I was rejected because of their replacement policy doesnt allow that. I must say, what a stupid system and policy they have there. Hence I suggested if replacement can't fix my request, then think of another policy that can help me!
The supervisor is obviously powerless and not authorize to make any decision. So I suggested to have a call with the authorized one - in this case, the Complain Manager. Worse, a lady. Well initially I was very kind because I wanna be gentleman. But it seems my boiling point is quite low, or it is rather she is unreasonable. So I have no choice but to fire her up. To cut the crap, I made this statement:
"If you balance the policy and customer satisfaction, I think you complain department failed"
I think for a moment the Complain Manager wanna cry. Lucky the supervisor was in the conference, and save her from me. How? Because he agreed on my statement. HAHA! Again, they left me no choice, so finally I picked the replacement option, and the brand new CPU delivered to my doorstep few days later. All FREE of charge. But I have to admit, I am not satisfy! If I have a chance to speak to the Complain Department head, I guess I would have get something better!

Silver Bullion
We have been talking about gold bar, gold coin gold ingots and gold bullion for months and yes I know, although I must admit that the returns of revenue are very high compare with other investment, but the price of invest is sometimes equivalent high as well. (At least it is a crucial fact for a poor man like me, the price is consider sky high and unbearable..)
Well, if you think that these investments are only meant for the rich and wealthy man. Well again, you are wrong. Initially I thought of that as well, but my perception changes when I found out there are also silver bullion on top of just gold. It makes me realize that we can indeed invest with even lower price, and a perhaps faster growing revenue that will beat gold at any time!
With the lower saving interest rate now offer by the finance institute or bank, it is definitely a wise move to transfer your money to somewhere more rewarding!

IP4?
No more. I lost the interest of owning one after seeing so many people holding it when Maxis and Digi launched it. Although I must admit the ios 4 is brilliant masterpiece of software on top of the fact that it costs like hell. BUT - it has no value to me anymore. Why? Ah sor owns it and talk in pasar, grandpa owns it to text their grandson, kids owns it to show off, 1.5 years old baby owns it as a toy, sooner or later maybe pets also own one!! Gosh that's so cheap...
I still remember when I first get my iphone 2g, nobody in Malaysia knows it. Most thought I am just using a normal dumb touch phone. Well I seriously enjoy that moment. It is like a sole proprietary owner for apple iphone. And the best is, after 3 years I owned the device (where 3gs just launched), my friend was looking at me amazingly and says - wow you are an iphone user.
I was like - "What the heck??" I have been using that for 3 years and now only they realize it?? While I feel thats a joke but I am also proud of it, cause I am the very few who knows that will be the coolest gadget later. For now, I just found another one, let's see if my premonition is true or not. I guess the answer is to be found out a year or 2 later...

Reno status - 1.5 month
It's been 1.5 months since the reno started. Till date, the progress for me is consider freaking slow. Partially, I put the blame on the god damn contractor that made me freaking furious about him.
While I understand money is important to everyone of us but he is simply a jerk that only shows up when the payment is ready. The rest of it, he just left the work to the 3 pity indon worker to finish the job. Luckily they are by far still good and maintain the quality work. Just that sometimes they show black face. Well that's fine with me as long as the work is good and most importantly, durable.
Again, after 1.5 months, the tile is still not up, the ceiling still open, the wall still not cement, and the wall of the gate still left vacant. Worse still, Friday was deepavali and so they rest for 3 days. Gosh how long more I still gotta wait for that? It is kinda frustrating now...

Twinkle Twinkle Little Gold
"Twinkle twinkle little coin, how I wonder what you are. Up above the price so high, like a diamond price sky high..."
Oh yeah, that's the song we always rhyme when we were young. It is like a must-know song where every single child has to learn. The rhythm basically imprinted into our brain. Just that however, as we are getting older the lyrics is turning from nursery to a more material-like reality.
Well, what can we do? Life is like this. When we were young, we learn, we dream, and we are perceived by adult that we are living in a world that coated with sugar. Even when we first step into the working field, we fear no vicious senior that trying to hack us down. And we can loose the bet and start all over again.
Well, as time flies, we started to aware how crucial the life is to us. And we realize how important the money is to us. There we start hiding our weaknesses. Hoping bosses didnt find out our inability and get replace by cheaper fresh grads. Pathetic isn't it? So if you are reading my post and feel the same way, make sure you invest to gold coin before it is too late!

Wake me up when November ends
It's November again. Not particular special for anyone but I am entering my 32 years of being a human being soon.
32 years, many already a father or mother of few (or grandparent if lucky enough), very few already a millionaire, many has laid their foot print in several continents, few experience life and death, some may have gone six feet under.
Me? My career stuck in nowhere unable to move, and worse is later I aint even a thousand-aire, perhaps only survive with few hundreds a month, and I am still single and many of the time not available. (Not sure why but always got myself occupied or into different errands). And the most is, I am basically nothing.
Sigh, 32 years, but feel like an old man having midlife crisis now. Gosh I wonder if I will die early too if I continue my life this way? haha...
