The bomb scare yesterday was indeed a hoax… September 4, Daily Express clipping:

First it was a tortoise… and now a Bird!!

A few minutes ago… after shutting down my notebook, I went to the loo and plan go to sleep. But to my amazement, there is a bird sleeping on the bathroom’s window… wow…

Cool, I took my camera and took its photos…

The bird is sleeping alone…

Can’t see the head… and I don’t want to wake it up.

I think, the bird is one of these… took this last saturday after watching the junior moutain bikers time-trial race.

The Certified Wireless Network Administrator (CWNA) course today was quite easy… perhaps too easy 8) gain some about the wireless standards etc.

The evening session was not bad since we are given an AP and each with USB WiFi adapter… I took the opportunity to configure the AP… configuring is very easy… done it many times with my office AP and my home ADSL WiFi router. We were requested to hard reset the AP. After doing so, I proceeded configuring the AP through the WiFi… damm… I did a silly mistake by setting up the admin IP (the only IP allowed to access the AP after that) which is not the same subnet as the AP’s IP itself and rebooted the AP… no harm… I just hard reset it for the second time… After halfway done, just before the tea break, the lecturer asks how was it, I said I configured it through the WiFi… he looks a bit baffled… he ask if he given me the UTP cable… I said, nope… then he gave me a cable after the tea break… but for me, with or without the cable, it’s not a problem to configure the AP 😛 not sure what he was thinking… My group is Group 3, so we are supposed to name our SSID Group3… Guess what?… I named our AP SSID NegaraKuKu instead 8) ha ha ha ha… cool yea…

Anyway, I went out for lunch with a colleague at the Double Six Monuments at Grace Point Sembulan… when we came back… ok, forgot to tell, the course is in Sadong Jaya Karamunsing by the wat… roads are blocked in that area… many policeman… after parking, I went to get closer to the crowd… I ask one of the Telekom security guard… he said there is a BOMB!!!… cool… I have my camera with me… too bad, it’s not my super duper Canon S5… it’s my Casio Exilim EX S500 with x3 zoom 🙁 so can’t get cool photos… we see lah what the newspaper report tomorrow…

I have few photos to put into my blog… unfortunately, I have not enough time to edit them… photos taken at Kampung Nelayan, Bukit Padang… photos taken when a bunch of junior mountain bikers having time trial for Jelajah Negeri Sembilan 2007 if I’m not mistaken… my new banner is one of the bikers photo 8) while taking the photo, the kid manage to show his V sign while struggling climbing the hill…

Tomorrow I’m going to have one whole week course… pretty lame course… Wireless Security Management… hopefully I can ride on the Streamyx Hotspot for free after that… 8)

emm… donno when can I publish the photos… then after that, I will be off for another week for Microsoft TechEd SEA 2007 😛

This morning, went to Likas to hit 100 balls with Adrian… 🙂

Yesterday, spent $65 for a pair of wipers for my car… manage to bring it down from $90… cool yea… 8)

Better get some sleep for the course… I hope it will be interesting…

 Will insert some photos on this post later…

At about 9pm just now, while watching tv, I saw something crawling near the staircase. When I look at it carefully, the thing is a tortoise…

I rush to my car an get my super duper Canon PowerShot S5 🙂

My nephews was so excited at the creature… but some how scared with it… u know lah kids…

The dogs are barking on it… the tortoise looks scared… its head was poping out and in when it saw the dog or us.

  
The kids are excited with the creature… tortoise.

  
They have to chase away the dogs so that the tortoise can move.

  
Tortoise: “I better run away before the dogs comes back”

  
It actualy try to run but I got pitty on it, so I lifted it and put it near the swamp… “bye bye tortoise” the kids said.

Last Friday, I went to pay our outstanding water bill… $460.00!!!

It was an outstanding bill since year 80s… well it was not our fault. They issued us an extra bill 4 years ago for about $1200.00 if I’m not mistaken. We don’t remember skipping paying any bills… but I think this must be caused by their ‘idiot’ meter reader… they simply make up some amount then throw our bill somewhere whithout checking our meter… then pass the copy to their office to be entered into the system…

We did not pay it immediately… until there was an installment program to pay water bill. When we took the program, I think I paid $150 only then spread the balance to 6 month installment.

After that, I did not pay for one year I think… until they started cutting water supply. When they cut our water supply… I rushed to them and pay some amont then spread the balance to 6 months installment again… 🙂 then never pay after that. 

Then after another year… they started cutting water supply again… I have to rush to them again and pay some amount and spread the balance to another 6 months installment…

Then, last week, we received another notice… but this time, since the amount is already small, I just pay the full amount. This month, I’m poorer $460.00 🙁

I was given 6 tickets for the SMSM Charity Concert about 3 weeks ago. I put in on my desk… unfortunately it was piled with some papers after that. I forgot about it until I accidentally lifted one paper and saw the ticket this evening before leaving the office.

When I check the details… OMG!!! The dinner is for tomorrow!!! Each ticket cost $150… ohh noooo… where the heck am I going to find $900?… I just spend about $460 this afternoon for outstanding water bill… talk about that later.

Today, there was a workers union meeting… well it’s not exactly workers union like the one you see on TV or movie… it just that every category of staff are represented and the representative will present issues regarding their working condition, environment, etc in this meeting.

Since our representative is on leave, I wanted to ‘volunteer’ myself… because there was no news who will replace our representative. I wanted to bring one important issue about our position… this morning, I received SMS from the chairman… well I called him last night about my intention and he not sure too if there will be a representative for us. He informed that there is a representative… OK then, I doesn’t have to attend the meeting. So, I just email the issue I wanted to bring to our representative… and I’m hoping it will be looked into… so that we can get ‘promoted’ and get extra salary 😛
