the lessons of life

without comments

Today, 30th March it’s something to remember.

I believe life teaches the best lessons. School gives us lecture in the basics but do not provides ultimate experience. Right?

No matter what your age, every day life offers a chance to learn something new. The trick is to realize when lesson is presenting itself.

Might the biggest lesson opportunities comes when we fail or something goes wrong. And we can only learn when we are willing to look at real facts.

Anyways, I had tough weekend but everything is back to normal today. 

One more thing, I heard John Legend’s new song “Everyone Knows” and one part caught my heart: 

“Cause everybody knows, that nobody really knows How to make it work”

Life is simple but how many of us really understand how to make it work??

I guess we did =)

malaysia: 20th march, finally

without comments

FINALLY!! 

NOW you can have iPhone 3G in Malaysia, LEGALLY.

I was waiting, waiting and waiting ever since iPhone first generation launched in… how many years ago??? And how many of you still thinking of iPhone? or still craving for iPhone?

I’m already out. 

Yesterday I went dinner together with few of Hann’s kumpong friends, and they told me it officially out from Maxis end of this month. Oooppss it on 20th March.

iphone-maxis

Oh well done Maxis, you all are smart but it’s just too late to coming into Malaysian market. I believe iPhone is non-longer bombastic phone out here!!

Actually so many thousands of iPhone is already in Lowyat la here and there, don’t under estimate Malaysian Tech market as you all know =p it came in Malaysia (unofficially) earlier than any other Asian countries, but you know why I was waiting iPhone? I thought might be cheaper getting iPhone from Malaysian Teleco, but GOOD NEWS?

NO WAY.

From Maxis, it is not so cheap, and complicated.

So, according to Maxis we have to sign-up one of the options: 6 months, 12 months or 24 months.

Let’s say, 12 months iValue I subscription plan, witch requires RM100 commitment per month, then will be able to purchase either 8GB for RM1900 or 16GB for only RM2290. Well, still expensive isn’t it?

Overall, I’m very very disappointed with this offering plan. Maxis should learn concept of AirAsia: “now everyone can fly”. 

I’ll wait again, for few month until everyone throwing away this lovely fancy gadget then… maybe I’ll be able to pick up cheap iPhone 3G??=p

Till then, more ganbatteh for my lovely lousy O2 XDA Atom Life. Especially lousy battery.

me devolved

without comments

 

Aloha guys,

I love Darwin and I’m very sure you all know who Darwin is. He is the one came up with the theory of EVOLUTION!!

evolution

Well, I know some people may not agree with it and it’s very hard for them to recognize the theory of this evolution as just the scientific explanation for the origin of human species. It’s just an idea in history. It’s just incredible idea.  

Anyways, Do you want to find out how you looked 3.7 million years ago? 

YES I DO.

Here’s the lovely and simple tool on the open university website where people can upload their own photo and have yourself turned to different ages of man!! Erm, it’s not that scientific but fun anyway.

With this tool you can find out how humans looked when we were in the following stages of our evolution:

 

  • Australopithecus afarensis (3.7 million years ago )
  • Homo habilis (2.2 million years ago)
  • Homo erectus (1.8 million years ago)
  • Homo heidelbergensis (500,000 years ago)

 

picture-1Well, it’s me TODAY. 

picture-2Well well, it’s me 3.7 MILLION YEARS AGO!!!

picture-3

Erm… It’s me 500.000 YEARS AGO. LOVELY =) looks very tough huh?

What a great way to engage people in where we come from and how we got here – an endlessly complex story. And also, a great way to start to tell the story of Darwin, a man responsible for so much of modern thought in 200 years ago!!

So why don’t you send yourself back in time??!! LoL
