Spartans! Prepare for glory!

Now, as then, a beast approaches, patient and confident, savoring the meal to come. They came with beasts from the blackness. With claws and fangs they grabbed us. Except for me...

We Spartans have descended from Hercules himself. Taught never to retreat, never to surrender. Taught that death in the battlefield is the greatest glory he could achieve in his life. Spartans: the finest soldiers the world has ever known.

A new age has come; an age of freedom. And all will know that we gave our last breath to defend it.
Remember this day, men, for it will be yours for all time.
Ready your breakfast and eat hearty, for tonight we dine in Hell!

Immortals. We put their name to the test.
This is where we hold them! This is where we fight! This is where they die!
Give them nothing! But take from them everything!

Madness? This is SPARTA!!!
This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.
Have you not noticed? We've been sharing our culture with you all morning.

So my king died, and my brothers died, barely a year ago. Long I pondered my king's cryptic talk of victory. But time has proven him wise, for from free greek to free greek the word was spread that bold Leonidas and his 300, so far from home, laid down their lives, not just for Sparta, but for all Greece and the promise this country holds. Now, here on this ragged patch of earth called Plataea, Persian hordes face obliteration! Just there the barbarians gather, sheer terror gripping tight their hearts with icy fingers, knowing full well the horrors they suffered at the swords and spears of 300. Yet they stare now across the plain at 10,000 Spartans commanding 30,000 free Greeks! Ho! The enemy outnumber us a paltry three to one! Good odds for any Greek. This day we rescue a world from mysticism and tyranny, and usher in a future brighter than anything we could imagine. Give thanks, men, to Leonidas and the brave 300! To victory!

Harooh!

Last burst for my Exams.

On these shields, boys!

Booked

I have decided to fly to Sydney for my graduation trip. Never been there before even though I have gone to Australia a few times. I tried to find one more person to follow me so I can drive down to Melbourne, but it seems like a difficult task; more like I was too lazy to really look around. The ticket is booked, 19th May till 1st June. So if anyone is around there at that time, let me know.

I'm so broke I have to fly on dad's remainding flyermiles, but still have to fork out $300 for the taxes. I'm crashing at 2 friends' place, so I can save some cash. I'm willing to sleep in the toilet, face the cats, meet with the crazy housemate etc.

I have not made any concrete plans where exactly to go, just some vague idea of driving around the outskirts. Hope I can go skiing. Since it is winter, I guess diving is out of the question.

Anyway, I'm asking for donations for my meals over at Sydney. It's called 'Feed Ansley Funds'
*looks at shorty* - The rich one
*looks with pleading eyes at Can* - The promoted one
*looks at Ping* - The working one
*looks at Han* - Stop buying shoes
*looks at Pam* - Time to pay back your Shifu
*looks at {insert name}* - Please please please

I'm so pumped!

Boston

In the light of the sun, is there anyone? Oh it has begun...
Oh dear you look so lost, eyes are red and tears are shed,
This world you must've crossed... you said...

You don't know me, you don't even care, oh yeah,
You said
You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains... oh yeah,

Essential yet appealed, carry all your thoughts across
An open field,
When flowers gaze at you... they're not the only ones who cry
When they see you
You said...

You don't know me, you don't even care, oh yeah,
You said
You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains... oh yeah,

She said I think I'll go to Boston...
I think I'll start a new life,
I think I'll start it over, where no one knows my name,
I'll get out of California, I'm tired of the weather,
I think I'll get a lover and fly em out to Spain...
I think I'll go to Boston,
I think that I'm just tired
I think I need a new town, to leave this all behind...
I think I need a sunrise, I'm tired of the sunset,
I hear it's nice in the Summer, some snow would be nice... oh yeah,

Boston... where no one knows my name... yeah
Where no one knows my name...
Where no one knows my name...
Yeah Boston...
Where no one knows my name.

The night

That very day crushed my entrie defense in life.
I tried. I gave up when the truth hit me. Circumstances made me wonder if it was really worth it. I thought for a long time before I finally let it go.
Was it not more like nothing can be done.

I clouded myself for as long as I could with whatever I could get my hands on.
I psyched myself.
I replayed the very message every day.
I hardened my heart.

I am I once again.

The night and life have its way of creeping up onto you. Tonight I thought there was glimmer of hope. Or is the night playing tricks on the mind?

Is it too late? Even if not, will it work when my faith has wavered.

I don't want to hope anymore. What will be will be.
Anyway, a decision has been made which affects everything.

直到爱消失你才懂得
去珍惜身边每个
美好风景
只是她早已离去
直到你想通她早已经
不再对你留恋
最后的你
开始了一段挣扎

Weird

I just woke up from a nap. In my half awaken state as I still struggling to wake myself out, I realise I was tearing. Slowly, I rememebered the sad dream I had in which I recongnise no characters. I felt the tears dripping onto my arm and I opened my eyes to see a small patch on my bed.

I wonder why I was crying. Does it reflect my current state of mind? Or like wet dreams, the body is actually trying to get rid of access materials that it building up?

Weird.

Should I....should I not

Mayday is coming.

Jacky Cheung is coming.

Should I spend or should I not? I think the question to ask myself is, do you have the money for it?

Damn

Turn back the clock

Ever since I was 12, I could not stop wishing I would grow up! I wanted to be self-reliant and be the master of my own destiny.

Today, I wish I was back at 12. Without a thought about dollars and cents. Without any familiy commitments. Without any care about what is happening around the world.

I have not even truely started my journey of freedom and I am jaded from all the thoughts.

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday Anastacia.

2 years old, my ever cheeky girl.
It felt like only yesterday when you pee on my bed.
Growing so fast, my intelligent dear.
Was it not only yesterday you called me uncle?

Happy Birthday baby girl.

Frailty, thy name is woman

The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing.

Blaise Pascal (17th Century)

Freud is right, women do have a lower sense of morality. It is fallacious to regard them as rational, normal (by general understanding) human beings when they clearly are incapable of higher thought and reason. In them we find endless ground-shifting, the slanting of stances to advantageously suit the situation of the day. Acutely deficient, they do not subscribe to an independent, unchanging set of values or principles, rather their volitions accord with the waves and motions of an ineffable emotional state in constant flux, in which their actions are always validated in the affirmative. When faced with such a peculiar creature, one must resist any notion of cause and effect, because even though they are capable of performing simple logical deductions (often in the critique of others), one can observe the swift disposal of these same conclusions when they are applied reflexively, again through recourse to extenuating circumstances or, if all else fails, the unfathomable depths of their emotional abyss in which even reason is beguiled (unless of course, it is in their favour). Even their previous actions and judgments (often in the form of ethics, in which they hold exclusive exemption) do not form precedence for how one may anticipate or comprehend their discourses or conduct. If every man is an island because of the inability to express the parameters which define his existence, every woman is an island because there are no parameters, their beings and consciousnesses inaccessible even to themselves.


~Michael Ong~

------------------------------------------------
Something a friend wrote about women. Such strong words can often come out after you quarral with a woman with no logic of reasoning. Here was what happen.....

Here is a guy and girl, but they are only housemates. The guy puts the toilet seat up to pee. So considerate since I know many who will just carry on without care if the seat is down. He flushes and leave.

SHOCK! HORROR! The woman stared at the toilet seat. She fumed as the seat was not put down. It was against human nature and natural order that the toilet seat is left up. Even God cannot do such a thing. She thought she had no choice, she had to punish the evil man. She left her long stands of hair across his room floor and keyboard. Littered the whole house with her sanitary pads and feminine powder.

The man tried to reason with her as the actions were just too extreme. She would not listen. The toilet seat must be left down as that was the only way the world works. It was like the compass always points north.

Why oh why. Is there no logic and reasoning left in the world?

Faith

Recently a friend ask me about my religion and my current beliefs. It ended in a really long discussion. I can see his sad that I have abandon my faith.

I have been pretty wayward when it comes to my religion for some time. There are a lot of factors and reasons to it. I guess the main reason I started to decline from my faith is that I cannot reconcile the teachings and what my personal beliefs. I tried, and it is so difficult to step into church not thinking of how hypocritical I am. It is so tough not feeling the eyes of God staring down on me. I tried to find my way, but it just does not feel right. It does not feel good to feel guilty of actions, thoughts, beliefs that you believe in.

Confuse I am not. I know what I believe in. So do I still consider myself as a Catholic? I dont't want to just renouce what I have spent half my life with. I am a lost sheep trying to find my way.

Which one are you getting?

Recent research shows that there are 7 kinds of sex:


The 1st kind of sex is called: Smurf Sex.

This kind of sex happens when you first meet someone and you both
have sex until you are blue in the face.


The 2nd kind of sex is called: Kitchen Sex.

This is when you have been with your partner for a short time and
you are so horny you will have sex anywhere, even in the kitchen.


The 3rd kind of sex is called: Bedroom Sex.

This is when you have been with your partner for a long time. Your
sex has gotten routine and you usually have sex only in your bedroom.


The 4th kind of sex is called: Hallway Sex.

is is when you have been with your partner for too long. When you
pass each other in the hallway you both say "screw you."


The 5th kind of sex is called: Catholic Sex,

This means you get Nun in the morning, Nun in the afternoon and Nun
at night.


The 6th kind is called Courtroom Sex:

This is when you cannot stand your husband any more. He takes you to
court and screws you in front of everyone.


And last, but not least, the 7th kind of sex is called: Social
Security Sex. You get a little from time-to-time, but not enough to
live on.

Technical Interviews

Recently I went for 2 interviews. I always thought the first interview will be HR and not so technical interviews. Plus I have laid off from serious coding (Other than SQL) for about 2 years. It does not help that I have a short term memory, thus anything longer than 6 mths is already thrashed.

Let's just say I am disappointed with myself. Questions asked were mostly those that I would have known 2-3 years back, but right now I can't remember. I did not prepare for any of the interviews, thinking I can smoke my way around.

Bye bye Rockwell....Bye Bye Google Taipei!

I think I going to be a waiter

Preview


I was not intending to post this picture up since I know you people will form a wrong impression of my action. Just something to remember Japan...I was trying to the road traffic, somehow some gals decided to block my view.

Since I am at this photo, I really want to know how come the gals don't feel cold at all. Its winter over there!!!

Ho ho ho.......Does it sound like me?

Capricorn Employee Profile (December 22 - January 20)

A Capricorn employee with too much to do is a happy worker. They need plenty of projects and responsibility. There is no sadder sight than a Capricorn worker without a sense of responsibility. They need to be needed. They are covertly ambitious - usually not flashy or obvious about it-but you will usually know that they are serious and determined about advancing themselves. They are completely scrupulous, so much so that they can be self-disparaging. But they are no pushovers. They can wear down even the toughest customers. Their persistence is incredible. Once they set their sights on a goal, they work away at it until the bitter end-whether the goal be that hard sell or the new hardware release. Capricorns don’t work for free, however. They expect to be paid handsomely and be given more and more responsibility. They need to come out ahead of the pack in the end, and they see the work environment as their primary vehicle. They won’t go in for the typical office gossip and politics, though. They want to get down to business at work and see it as no place for fooling around. With a strong sense of duty and respect towards their superiors, it is rare they will join in on boss-bashing or knocking the system. They can get frustrated, however, with blue sky management schemes that lack common sense, and they will interject their dry sense of humor in the most critical ways. If they want change, they will be unyielding. If all their effort leads to naught the result will be deep moods of darkness and depression with a sense of hopelessness. Keep your Capricorn employee happy by paying them fairly and giving them plenty of hard work. Arrange for a path of advancement within your organization for them. If you don’t, you might find them looking for other opportunities.
