Porridge

Today I felt like eating porridge because it had been ages I didn't ate it. So I went out and bought this ====>


It is pickled lettuce. I like the sweet taste of this pickled lettuce.

Energy Drink

Sweet and refreshing drinks that keep you focus all night.


Long hour studying or spend my time on the computer overnight, I will drink a few bottle of this.
Actually forcing the body to it's max capacity is not good and should be avoided.

Box Drinks

Assorted box drinks

First entry "Kiwi & Apple flavor"

The taste is a bit sweet overall I give 3 out of 5 star.


Second entry "Grape flavor"

I expected it to bit a bit sour but it is sweet instead. I give it a 3 out of 5 star.


Third entry is "Peach & Lemon flavor"


Oh my god!!! that's what I can say after I have a sip of it. Who in the hell think of this flavor. The taste is horrible. I think pure peach or lemon will be better. I give 1 over 5 star for this one.



Fourth entry is "Mango flavor"


The taste is just nice just not too sour or too sweet. I give it a 4 out of 5 star.


Last entry " Apple flavor"


Awesome!!! That's the word that come thru my mind when I taste this. I think this is the best flavor of all. I give a full 5 star for this.

Internet connection (Wireless)

Internet connection in Malaysia (part 2)

I never tried to use a wireless broadband before but I have some friends who use those services.

There were four Cellular broadband provider

Celcom, Maxis, Digi, and U Mobile

The speed provided is

ISP	Technology	Package download speed
Celcom	3G, 3.5G (HSDPA)	384 kbit/s, 3.6 Mbit/s
Digi	EDGE	224 kbit/s
Maxis	3G, 3.5G (HSDPA)	384 kbit/s, 640 kbit/s, 3.6 Mbit/s
U Mobile	3G, 3.5G (HSDPA)	1.8-3.6Mbit/s

Wireless broadband is good if you are constantly on the go and need a fast internet connection.

Join the earth hour this coming saturday

Cheap sales

Today I went to the grocery store to buy some stuff and I saw this. Selling it for half price only. "This must be a lucky day" I told myself.

It came in two flavor one is chocolate and the other one is coffee.

There were 10 small package nicely packed in the box. I wonder how it looks lets open the package

After opening the package I took the first bite and the taste is awesome. I personally preferred the coffee flavor.

The package also come with a free 100g chocolate cream cookies.

The reason they sell it for half price because the expire date is almost near. As for me I would finish it less than a week. An hour later I went back there and there were only few box left. I manage to bought 2 box.

Internet connection (cable)

Internet connection in Malaysia

In the past 10 years I remember connecting to the internet using dial up connection and it is very very expensive and slow. I have heard that there were case where one disconnected and reconnect to a overseas line and the phone bill jumps like hell.

In Malaysia the current biggest internet provider is TMnet Streamyx, a subsidiary of Telekom Malaysia offering ADSL connection from the basic 384 kbit/s up to 4 Mbit/s.

Fot the 4 Mbit/s speed is only available at Cyberjaya area.

Good news for those that stay at Penang island where there is another brodband company "Penangfon" offering fiber optic connection where the upload and download speed is 2 Mbit/s and the monthly free is much cheaper than TMnet Streamyx.

For Kuala Lumpur and Selangor area there is another fiber optic services "Metrofon" for condominiums and apartments.

Price for internet connection here is quite expensive. Fiber optic connection is still new here and only a few company offering fiber optics for residential.

To bad I'am not staying in the Penang island or else I would personally recommended
"Penangfon". If compare to the connection speed and the price where I have to pay about RM 66 /month for the speed of 512 kbit/s "TMnet Streamyx" and compare to RM 60 /month for the speed 2 Mbit/s
"Penangfon".

There were pros and cons from this two services provider

The pros for "Penangfon" is, long term usage may save a lot of money for those heavy user.

The cons is "Penangfon" is, you have to pay more for the first payment because of the installation fee "can not done a self installation because special tools is need for the fiber optics connection installation" and where one can waive the installation fee for "TMnet Streamyx" and done a self installation "this is very easy actually".

I just hope more fiber optic service provider in the future.

Dairy products

Breakfast is important in the morning. What would you guys eat for breakfast?. For me is milk and bread.
Which type of milk is prefer? instant or fresh?. If I am in the rush then I would pick the fresh milk as it save my time waiting to boil the water.

This is a 3 in 1 cereals drink.


Do you know that you can mix the cereal drink with nescafe (coffee). The taste is awesome, but you need a lager cup because you need to put more water or else it would be too thick and sweet.

Snack^^

Smarties by Nestle. The packing is quite attractive with cartoon picture at the back of the box.

Next it the Cloud 9 from Jack n Jill. This is a Cloud 9 plus, it is different from the ordinary cloud 9. It is a chocolate bar with caramel fill, peanut and rice crispies. This party pack contain 20 small pack.
The packaging is nice but i wonder is the taste is nice.


One bite and wow.. speechless. It is good, the texture is not as sticky as the normal cloud 9 and it is not that sweet. Once you chew it you can hear the crunching sound from you mouth.


This biscuit is a Malaysian made biscuit. It's bring me back the old memory. I love to eat this when I was a kid. Actually it comes in two flavor but I prefer the chocolate flavor. It is funny remembering back the time, where I use to eat the head first ^^;. By the way it have 3 character as you can see in the picture. The left one is Sonny, the center one is Harry and the right one is Sammy.

My favorite sweets "Hacks". The left one is blackcurrant flavor and the right one is mandarin orange and ginger flavor. There were plenty off flavor but I like the mandarin orange and ginger flavor.

Mmmm......

This single box contain 3 individual seal pack.

A value ginger biscuits from tesco. Love the taste of this biscuit.

A piece of the tesco ginger biscuit.

Ah this is my favorite biscuit. OREO Double Stuf from Kraft.

Cooler Master 250 (with one touch backup)

Oh my god!! when I first look at this external hard drive. It is dam nice. The pouch that include in the package is dam nice. It is like a small cd case. The pouch is very spacious it can fit two external case.

Inside the pouch on the left the hard drive is securely strap. On the right it have a small pocket that enable a usb cable to be store nicely and I personally thinks that the usb head should be keep in the pocket to avoid scratches to the hard disk case.

Dam it is nice!. This case have a mirror finish on it case. you can see the light reflect thru it's body. Because of the mirror finish it give us a solid look not like cheap plastic case.

The back part of the case. As I know the previous model have the e-sata support but due to various complain from the coustomer Cooler Master have come out a new model without the e-sata support. It also have a 5 V dc jack. I don't really understand why it need the jack. USB power should be enough but it is diffrent case if the output is e-sata where user need to supply a 5 v dc to the case. I just wondering when will the 5v dc jack will serve it purpouse maybe never.

As you can see the body is full aluminium and it is mirror finish and this effect have its drawback where fingger prints will be seen on the case after some time of usage. So guys remember to keep your hand cleen before you touch this case. Oh almost forget in the package it also include a micro fiber cloth for you to wipe the case after usage.

Head to head. The Cooler Master 250 lite vs the Cooler Master 250 (with one touch backup). The Cooler Master 250 (with one touch backup) look nicer than Cooler Master 250 lite. I think it is because the mirror finish on The Cooler Master 250 (with one touch backup).

The Cooler Master 250 lite without the mirror finish looks plane but The Cooler Master 250 (with one touch backup) looks solid.

The X logo is remove on the The Cooler Master 250 (with one touch backup) and it is repalce by a small long rectangular button. Both still use the same LED, blue and red.

A back up cd also include.
