Desperado, why dont you come to your senses? You been out ridin fences for so long now Oh, youre a hard one I know that you got your reasons These things that are pleasin you Can hurt you somehow
Don you draw the queen of diamonds, boy Shell beat you if shes able You know the queen of heats is always your best bet
Now it seems to me, some fine things Have been laid upon your table But you only want the ones that you cant get
Desperado, oh, you aint gettin no youger Your pain and your hunger, theyre drivin you home And freedom, oh freedom well, thats just some people talkin Your prison is walking through this world all alone
Dont your feet get cold in the winter time? The sky wont snow and the sun wont shine Its hard to tell the night time from the day Youre loosin all your highs and lows Aint it funny how the feeling goes away?
Desperado, why dont you come to your senses? Come down from your fences, open the gate It may be rainin, but theres a rainbow above you You better let somebody love you, before its too late
Sometimes I imagine That I would like to be A knight in shining armor In a castle by the sea
A knight in shining armor with a princess by my side I'd have a magic feather and a horse that I could ride And the king would say, "Sir Ernie, you're so handsome and so brave Please rid us of this dragon breathing fire in his cave"
And I'd get on my horse and I'd start to ride I'd travel my way through the countryside I'd come at last to the dragon's cave And I'd yell, "Mr. Dragon, you'd better behave!" And the dragon would be so scared of me That he'd run away, and the kingdom would be free!
And I'd tip my hat Imagine that Imagine thaaaaaaaat Imagine that!
Sometimes I imagine That I would like to be A daring bold explorer Sailing far across the sea
I'd set out on a sailing ship to find a distant land I'd gaze across the ocean with my telescope in hand And the captain would say, "Ernie, there's a big storm drawing near, You're our finest bravest sailor; you must grab the wheel and steer!"
And I'd grab the wheel in the wind and rain I'd steer the ship through the hurricane I'd guide the ship with a steady hand I'd lead the way toward a brand new land I'd spy the land lying safe and near And I'd cry "Land-ho!", and the crew would cheer!
And I'd tip my hat Imagine that Imagine thaaaaaaat Imagine that!
Sometimes I imagine That I would like to be A person who's named Ernie Who looks quite a lot like me
Who likes the things that I like And who does the things I do And I don't have to imagine Because I'm Ernie! Me, that's who!
(nifty Ernie laugh)
And I'd tip my hat Imagine that Imagine thaaaaaaat Imagine that!
Life was too overwhelmed for the past 2 weeks. Cool. Somehow, I haven't got the time to sit down and be quiet. First was TeenStreet, 2nd was TnT X-vOluTiON, then big bro who came.

Hmm... From left, Veron, Uncle Wye, Pari and Joseph. I wonder why were they staring at the lake.
I went to Nils Wogram & Root 70 Jazz Concert in Wisma Kebudayaan Soka Gakkai Malaysia after work today. Organised by the Goethe-Institut Malaysia in cooperation with Soka Gakkai Malaysia and DBKL. It was great fun that this is the first In-The-Hall-Nice-Cool-Jazzy concert that I'd been to.
Smart, nervy, hard-bitten jazz from a quartet of young players led by the remarkable German trombonist Nils Wogram. Wogram comfortably plays like the roller coaster, geniously composed almost all of the pieces performed. Hayden Chisholm, plays the saxaphone so light that’s given a weird lateral spin. Matt Penman on the big bass so very indulge as if he was dancing with his bass and Jochen Rückert on drums, awesomely off-beat!
The stage before it starts. The hall was great, solid as it's all wooden- the flooring, the stage... you could hear the acoustic!
Nils Wogram & Root 70 in action!
Their performance has got soul. The songs just sink.. and keep sinking into your heart that you could feel them. I went into imagination listening to them.
"If you listen to Bach's work, a lot of it is similar. It is beautiful music with a desire for depth is always preferable to feverishly inventing something new with every record." Nils Wogram.
*A friend of mine whom I shared the other 2 tickets was trying to find the wisma but they couldn't manage to find it even till the last song finished. then, they gave up. Kinda sad that the roads are changed and it was hard to find. But the semangat was really impressive. At last plan B executed. They went to Jalan Alor for food!
I moved into this condominium which is just 5-10 minutes walk to my workplace. 10 minutes ... that is just if I walk like the little snail enjoying the smell of the morning breeze.
My housemates have been so nice to me ! I am blessed! I have someone to share my joy when I am happy and I have a pair of ears and a wide opened arms ready for me when I am sad. On top of that, I have happy food most of the time =) I tell no lies one... See for yourself! =D
Corn!! Bubble by bubble of corn. Hehe...
My dinner. Prepared by Veron. Prawn with mango and Beef+Broccoli
Phweeeeeeht! Tada!!!
Right hand one ... Left hand one!
Thanks for blessing me. ^_^ I shall bless you my way.^_^
I went back to DCM today for lunch. Then I happened to go up to DCM again and said HI to some of my ex-collegues. Glad that everyone still gave me that big smile on their face. The only people that I didn't see was the marketing team. They went out for lunch and won't be back as soon like always! :P
I went to Google Marketing Briefing in Hilton Meridian KL today. It was a great experience!Seeing all the media people, advertising people... All the online related marketing and advertising human beings were there attending this event. It was really cool.

Derek from Google giving his presentation on the Internet user experience.
Everyday the capacity of internet is so much increasing and It will not go backwards. The changing patterns of consumer behaviour needs to be catered with care and it is not just about feeding them with what you have but with much respect and this is where interaction comes into the picture. People wants to be people, not consumer. Engagement is what we want. Experience is not enough. They need a structured experience.
According to Google, Malaysia internet base user is higher than Pay TV viewer. Wow. That's why it is an attractive target for advertising today. REVOLUTION!
Gonna check out who is this Japanese fella --- Guy Kawasaki.
GOOGLE Blue Red Yellow Blue Green Red *I wondered why
Woke up in the morning, I told God that I will need Him today closely with me. I did not know the challenges that I would be facing. Seriously needed Him to watch over my day.
It was certainly challenging in the office.
Then church. I wish I was there earlier. Our first vocalist workshop today and I reached when it almost done. But at least I made it there and say bye. It's all about your heart worshipping. Excellency, that's what we want to achieve.
A "yum cha" session with my old uni-mates. It's fun recalling our uni days. Everything passed so fast, even the graduation. I have my graduation pictures with me. The studio picture is alright but not the stage pictures. My stage pictures? -_-' Such a waste of money. Wonder how Siti Hasmah felt when she shook my hand. "You must've been waited long huh? Congratulation. All the best ya?" She told me. How does she knows? I was supposed to go up earlier as I lined up so far infront. But since I didn't get my smart card activated, I have to wait till the end of the line and I had the background - the video of me walking up the stage. Unlike the other, they only have their static face picture and the message to their love ones which consist only 65 alphabets. Mine was so much interesting then the others. Ha! Che-wah.
I'd been listening to this to get encouraged. Hope to have the chords tho. Thanks to Juwita Suwito.
The raindrops fall incessantly Each time I think the sky's letting up Thre seems to be another cloud Bringing the dark Coming right at me
So often I can't see the road ahead The blinding headlights loom then go out again But suddenly I find that I don't need to strive and I realize I am rising and flying and....
*CHORUS Only in the dark when I can't seem to see I learn to hear Your whisper that's been guiding me Reach out for the hand that bears the light So my step is right Only in the dark
Now each day's a step that's lighted up And the questions asked won't make me stop 'Cause I know no matter how I feel That this is real And I'm slowly getting to a place where it's not...
BRIDGE So let the shadows come And let me run into Your arms where I can feel the warmth of Your touch - unmistakable Leading me on, loving me on, turning me on Though now it seems to be that... *chorus Hope you'll be encouraged as well. God is always there no matter how.
My environment has been changing so much lately. New home, new house-mates, new job, new colleagues, new car.
I try to locate things back into places. It's very taxing. Even in the office, the structures and systems.. whatever structures and systems lah. All need to be put into places. So that everything will run smoothly. Smoother, at least.
Do you think I can take it? Answer to that? Yes. No matter how also, you try!
DCM used to be my beloved office. Some said:''When you had a bite of the big cake, you don't want cup cake anymore.'' But I guess Innity is a lot more warmer than my ex-beloved office. I will survive! By God's grace definitely. =)
Finally I finished my internship with DCM. I am glad that I didn't spend my 7 months in vain. That was one of the most interesting time of my life. I've got to do more than what an intern can do(che-wah!). That, I would like to thank my bosses for guidance and the trust upon me. Thank God that I went in at the right time as I managed to experience so many major events. I'd learned.. the good and bad things of an corporate company, the job or the people. Well, I did all that I can and I took pride in doing things that were appointed to me(at least... I know I did).
It is very dissappointing when you see the itchiness of some of the people that you thought are your friends or someone that can back you up when you are in trouble.
Anyway, Thanks to all that were supporting me.. all along. You guys rocks!
Michael - He is the sunshine intern a.k.a my son. The most hillarious interns ever!
Ee Siew - I worked very closely with her. I can't run from her killer-stares when I did mistakes, of course I get alot of that. hehehe... Ahem.. BUT, I've learned so, so much from her. Thanks!

Mei on Casey's shoulder. hehe! She was trying to be his parrot apparently.. Mei is a caring person and now she is taking care of my son!
Izan and Malina - Great friends of mine in DCM. =)
How great is our God Sing with me How great is our God...
How great is His love for me. I'm not even a small, tiny little dot if He watch from the outer space... What's the worth of me? The King of universe... The King of billions and billions of galaxy. But yet He loves me.
January 15, February 15... May 31, 6 months time has almost past. Where should I go? Along this few months that I started working with DCM, it has been so interesting. I learned so much that I couldn't had enough. I've met people that are such an inspiration to me. I see my strength and my weaknesses.
I try, I concentrate, I put my whole heart when I work, putting hopes and trying to be better. Still, I did a lot of mistakes. Some, over and over again. I aimed to finish tasks nicely in time. I aimed to be sharper, I aimed to be more detailed, I aimed to be more independent, I aimed to be more efficient... but sometimes I couldn't. Many times, I screwed up. I fell, swallow, deal with it then I stand up. It makes me upset when I make a mistake. I just hate to make mistake. Everybody make mistake I know, but I just feel awfully idiotic and I can just probably throw myself down from 49th floor and strangle myself along the few seconds before I hit the ground. I thought I can make it on my way to the bull's eye. I was being ambitious.
I am still ambitious and I will not give up. Question, how can I survive in this competitive surroundings? I have so much space for improvement. That upsets me. I need a stepping stone. I've got big dreams.
Next week, I need to face an interview. I'm not sure. I want to stay if I could. Now, I know I can't. I can if I am taken in through that interview... but things will be different then. It will not be the same kind of scope. I can't get what I want. God has been giving me such a nice path... all prepared and fitted in well on the right path. This time, I know He is still in charge. Do I have a choice? What kind of place should I choose? Decisions are all on me. Some might say I have not seen enough, I have not experience enough, I am just not mature enough. Yes, I don't deny the fact that I am raw, I don't deny my weaknesses, I don't deny that I am not good enough. I don't. I take advises because I respect and I appreciate. I do appreciate them.
I don't want end up doing a job being incompatible.
This is just a starting point... but I seriously don't know where is the starting point should start. Ahh...
Michael - He is the sunshine intern a.k.a my son. The most hillarious interns ever! 
Izan and Malina - Great friends of mine in DCM. =)
