<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Nothing is certain in life. It's always in a transient, never reaching a steady-state. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And for the first time in years, I'm facing a crossroad yet again. I really don't know what to do or where to go. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am... LOST.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It's really been a while since I last posted. Not sure why but for the past 2-3 years, I just do not have that 'feel' to blog anymore. Perhaps as we grow older, we move past yet another chapter of our life and we have different priorities/needs/interests now. It reminds me of how most of us used to keep a diary when we were kids and we just outlived that habit of writing things down in that small book.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It's snowing outside now on Boxing Night. And I have been staring out at the window for over an hour now. I was brought back to what I have fondly dreamt about as a kid.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">-----------------------</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When I was a boy, I used to dream that I would work in a country abroad, a country with cooling weather and snow for Christmas. And now that I am in Sweden, I guess that the dream of mine actually came true. Well, not exactly 100% as the weather here is Arctic cold rather than cooling hahaha. But nevertheless, I enjoy it just as much.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">-----------------------</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Given that my time here might not be a long one, I reckon that I should take in as much as I can get to experience over here. Heck, this might be my first and last snowy winter, not as a tourist but as a resident. The culture here, where family comes first and money is secondary, gonna miss the most I will. You can just go around the town in whatever brands of clothes that you have and nobody will ever raise an eyebrow and look down on you. If only Sweden is nearer to home.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And since it's Christmas, we are heading to another year with or without a bang, depending on how you look at it. Without realizing the passing of time, old resolutions have to be ticked or crossed out and new ones have to be made just to keep our hopes alive. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As always, my one and primary resolution in ushering the New Year is to STAY ALIVE. But for this year, I'll add another crucial one: To spend more time with my loved ones. It's too late to realize the love that you have for your family when they're gone, especially when you couldn't even attend the funeral. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">While my life and work here have been going smooth, to not being able to attend my Grandpa's final journey in life is disheartening. Looks like you just can't have everything in life eh? In the end, we still have to gain some and to lose some, to balance the equation so to speak. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This is to you Grandpa! Cheers and thank you for the great time that we had together. Thanks for teaching me to save money for the rainy day and thus me being the thrifty that I am today :) Thanks for the football games at the playground. Thanks for the RM11 ang pows with your trademark 陈 on the red packets. I am gonna miss that most from you during the coming CNY's and birthdays. I will continue that for you alright? Thank you. And I am sorry if I had hurt you in any way. I am truly grateful that I got to spend time with you before I left for Sweden. That we got to chat, showed you some photos about Sweden, and putting my palms on your forehead. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I miss you. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Happy Xmas to you and your family. May you be well and happy. Be kind to one another. Remember, you only live once.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It's been exactly 5 years today since I donned that Chapati hat in 2009. I remember that it was one of the happiest moments of my life, and my Mom too as my buddy said that she cried when I received my scroll on stage.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I was grateful that some of my best friends and colleagues were present to show their support and that some of the fellows in the crowd gave me one of their loudest cheers and claps.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And this year, I am looking forward to seeing my beloved wife completing her PhD journey with flying colors and she'll be donning her very own chapati hat in April next year :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I always believe that life is very fair. You'll get some, and you'll definitely lose some. In the end, it is up to us to judge if we have received more than we lost. Not necessarily in terms of quantity but more on the quality and the value of it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The life of a human is never gonna be a steady state, it never was, never is and will never going to be. The transients and changes are never ending, else there will be no advancements and improvements in our lives and life in general will definitely be a very boring happening, or rather not happening much :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I guess as what I have read and studied on the many books that I have come across so far, we ought to embrace life as it is, as it comes along and adapt to it. Living with fear and worry is just a very negative way of taking the jest out of our very own existence. One such great and influential books on my take on life is "How To Live Without Fear and Worry" by the late Venerable K. Sri Dhammananda.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">After all, life is short and we should make the very full use of it. Make it count, cultivate more good Karma no matter what others have done to us, be kind and generous according to our means and most importantly, be grateful and appreciative of loved ones amongst us. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Time is always against us, but with great courage and a very positive thinking, I believe that nothing is impossible.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you have read to this very last line of this very bland writeup of mine on this very lazy Saturday afternoon, <b>May You and Your Loved Ones Be Well AND Happy. </b>Remember that nothing is more important that our very own heartbeat. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Haha OK I took that last line from Jacky's song :p</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It's been a long time since I last blogged. As in really writing something.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Time has been passing so fast since I turned 21. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In the last decade, I have achieved much in life: I got a Ph.D., a job, found a marvelous and beautiful (both inside and out) girlfriend who would later became my lovely wife, my first home and car, and now I'm in Sweden on a short contract work placement. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Whenever I think and recall on all those memories, the photos and videos, they really bring tears to my eyes. Things just happened to fast, there's so much to cherish, but there's so little time. How nice it would be if I can remain as a kid forever with no worries and troubles in my mind, that my parents do not grow old and that they're as energetic and youthful as ever. Never mind all the materialistic possessions in the world, the joy that they bring is shortlived. Being able to be together with our loved ones, that time and experience are priceless. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Only if there's a pause button in life :(</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And of course, I do have some regrets. And sometimes, like everyone else, I wish that I could turn back time and undo all those mistakes that I have made. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In the end, everything and everyone loses. Time wins. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">May you treasure the time that you have with your loved ones. Time and tide, waits for no man...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Ok. So now you have your Raspberry Pi with you and an SD card on standby as well. What's next? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Naturally the next step will be to burn the image file of the Linux that you are going to run on your Pi into your SD card. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Oh by the way, make sure that your SD card is of 2GB or larger. Else, the Linux system won't be able to fit in unless you custom-make one yourself :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Here are the steps to start 'baking' that SD card of yours :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">1) Format your SD card to a normal FAT filesystem. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2) </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Click </span><a href="http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;" target="_blank">here</a><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> for the download links. For beginners, I would suggest that you install the basic Raspbian "wheezy". </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">3) </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">So once you have the file downloaded, plug the SD card into your system and if you are running a Mac, under Disk Utility, click on the Info button to get the drive identifier of the SD card. It should be in the form of "diskX".</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">4) Then fire up Terminal, go into the superuser mode via the command </span><span style="color: blue; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b>sudo su</b></span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> and enter your password.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">5) Enter the code </span><span style="color: blue; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b>dd if=/Location/*your-downloaded-image-file* of=/dev/diskX</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The process might take a while and once you're done, you can now safely eject your SD card from your computer and plug it into your Pi. And voila!!! Your Pi is alive!!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">If you've connected the Pi to a monitor/TV via the HDMI cable, you can see the console startup process and once it's loaded, enter the username </span><span style="color: blue; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b>pi</b></span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> and the password </span><span style="color: blue; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b>raspberry</b></span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> to log in. After that, depending on what you wanna do, for instance you can start by typing out the command </span><span style="color: blue; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><b>startx</b></span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> to go into the GUI desktop of the Linux system.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So, basically that's it to get your Pi working for the first time.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Happy programming and Pi-ing :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I've been watching a lot of "How I Met Your Mother" and "Big Bang Theory" lately. And naturally, while watching them, I was reminded of my life not too long ago where I was literally a geek with my endless experiments on technologies.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And honestly, I missed that life. Man... talking about the things that I had to give up once I started working. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So, I've embarked on a quest to re-live my geek self, trying to be myself again.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The first thing that I did was to get myself a Raspberry Pi. Yep, you heard that right, a Raspberry Pi. No no no... not an edible pie, but rather a mini computer the size of a credit card. Fascinating. Really.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It runs on Linux, USB ports, an Ethernet port, HDMI output amongst others and it just needs a mini USB port for power. It even has 26 pins for GPIO purposes. Awesome! Couldn't wait to make it perform some geeky tricks. It's really like getting a dog and training it to do tricks :p</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Anyway, it costs a mere RM111, which is not expensive IMHO for a development kit with the limits being my imaginations and programming skills. The only thing that I don't really fancy about it is that it came in a pink box. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQke0eu2r3QRDaXFDvrpxOFC-qKUh42OKYu1HPq2oykvtBE6uQ_ONOtQMLH6CKEx3chGTYWqWKd4yZTqwooAizKMGjKDBLyUGNNGw394_VaUhmhNVPVL2tLGuekKthK0cqNKkgpcHrRw/s1600/228455_10151906237029196_931139139_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQke0eu2r3QRDaXFDvrpxOFC-qKUh42OKYu1HPq2oykvtBE6uQ_ONOtQMLH6CKEx3chGTYWqWKd4yZTqwooAizKMGjKDBLyUGNNGw394_VaUhmhNVPVL2tLGuekKthK0cqNKkgpcHrRw/s640/228455_10151906237029196_931139139_n.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So I was off learning programming again!! Yippeee!!! And this time it's Python as well as the loads of hack-styled Linux command lines :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">As I progress along, perhaps I shall share some codes here on this site as well as codes shared by others :) No worries, credits shall be given to the rightful generous souls who showed the way :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In the mean time, wish me Happy Programming!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Sometimes, it's all down to fate. or the right timing. or simply the right person. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">i was having my latte one day sitting by the windows looking out onto the streets when the outlet played this song. suddenly, all the memories came back to me. but i guess it's too late now. you never appreciated me when i was there. i was never good enough. was never good looking enough. was never rich enough. just a spare cup to pour your feelings into when yours was full.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">and i've already found the one who'll be there for me. who'll love me for who i am. guess good guys don't always lose out after all. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">goodbye.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It's been a while now. With all the heavy workloads and things to do at work, that leaves me with not much time to contribute to this page. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">But anyhow, this post talks about the cheapest German car that was launched almost a year ago: The Volkswagen Polo Sedan. With a price list that hovers right below the RM100k mark, it's really quite a good deal compared to the usual Japanese suspects. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Test drove it the other day just for the fun of it and the car offers great handling abilities as well as being powerful enough to stroll along in the city or for long distance travels on the highway. Doesn't really feel like a 105PS car at all. The car feels tough and sturdy, one that makes you feel safe being either the driver or the passenger. Hmmm...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And I managed to capture this while having breakfast at Puchong one day. A real handsome car indeed.</span></div>

My first experience was the dial-up service that offered a mere speed of 56kbps, which was a theoretical value by the way, if you know what I mean. Loading videos off sites like YouTube was unthinkable. Even opening a hotmail email page (there's no gmail then) was a great test to one's patience. And most of all, it's charged by blocks in minutes. So the longer you use, the more that you have to pay. And judging by the speed at that time, it took bout 3-5 minutes just to open the said hotmail page. Well you can somehow picture in your head that the internet bill at that time was synonymous to those taxi meters. It really could give you a heart attack anytime :p</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Then moving on, came Screamyx. Ooopsss.... I mean Streamyx :) Honestly speaking, the service was great at the beginning. YouTube videos loaded in a jiffy and the download speed was adequate too, seeing that I've subscribed to the 384kbps package, which happened to be the cheapest. Somewhere down the road, the market got a little saturated as more people subscribed to the service. Things got slow, and I mean reeeaaalllll slowwww. What took minutes now take hours load. The ironic thing is, I got a complementary upgrade to the 512kbps package at no extra charge and guess what??!! No change in speed!! Yahoo!!! </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Lately, the speed can be unbearable at times, especially at night where I guess that most people come back home from work and more users are sharing the thread-sized bandwidth. Even more so now that they are busy promoting their new service, the ultimate broadband (so to speak) in the name of Unifi, where they integrate the TV service, phone and internet all into one line. The speed?? Awesome I would say. No, I am not a subscriber but I have experienced it before. The cheapest Unifi package provides a maximum speed of 5Mbps and that's a theoretical value. Moving up the price ladder well, you get faster network. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">So there's this story. My sister was at home the other day trying to allocate herself to the new timetable for the next semester on our Streamyx network. And it's based on a first come first serve principle. Ergo, the earlier that you select your preferred allocations, the higher chance that you're gonna get it. But the funny thing is this, her friend in his own home on a Unifi network, appeared to have experienced a slower speed than my ancient dinosaur Streamyx and needless to say, he didn't get his preference. I know that things might have bottlenecked at the campus server side, but isn't it the fact that if one has a higher speed internet access, one should be able to 'park' his/her data at the server much faster? It's just like the comparison between A who travels via the expressway to work while B uses the toll-less, smaller and more busy road. Theoretically speaking, A should reach the workplace first, unless of course he is driving like a tortoise, which further strengthen my hypothesis that although a high bandwidth was provided (width of the expressway), but if the data speed isn't fast enough (tortoise driving on a highway), it's still no good. And coming from an engineering background, I know that most theoretical stuff that we study actually don't get to see the light of day. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">In the next segment of my "The Ne(t)ed For Speed" series, I shall be sharing with you my latest internet speed experience. The 3 nice screenshots below shall serve as a nice teaser for all before the post :)</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

After all the ups and downs, here comes the time for us to renew our resolutions, reset our take on life in 2012 and let the bygones be bygones for the things happened that did not go in our favour. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Many happy occasions came and passed by in 2011 for me. I have upgraded my status with my darling, or rather we have both upgraded our status to each other hahahaha Guess that I am now officially off the market :p We are currently awaiting the grand event in the year of the Dragon :)</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Not to mention also the 3 trips that I had in 2011, definitely the most active that I had ever experienced :) Although 2 of them were business trips, but I still enjoyed them nevertheless. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">My resolutions for the new year: To stay alive, to stay healthy, and to be a better person overall. Really gotta work on this bad temper of mine :p Most importantly, I am gonna cherish the loved ones who have always been there to support and to care for me :)</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">As for the title of my post above, well, I personally feel that "Rise of The Planet of The Apes" was definitely THE best movie in 2011, with MI4 following closely behind in 2nd place. Moral of the story: Never play the role of God. You'll never know when you are killing your own kind. Just go with the flow and let things happen naturally. Heck, that was what the Feng Shui master advised me to do earlier this year :p</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Till then, Auld Lang Syne :)</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Cheers to a good year that has been and to a better year that is going to be :)</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

My feeling today is exactly the same thing that I felt when MJ passed away in 2009. Today we lost a great man with great vision and wisdom. He was a charismatic keynote speaker. He was the Thomas Edison of our time. A true legend indeed. A friend who taught us to "</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Think different".</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

It's happening on Oct 4th and the tech journalists in the USA have been issued official invites to the event at the Apple Campus.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><a href="http://iphonefreakz.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Apple-Event-October-4th.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://iphonefreakz.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Apple-Event-October-4th.jpg" /></a></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">*Image courtesy of <a href="http://www.loopinsight.com/2011/09/27/apple-announces-iphone-5-event-for-oct-4/">www.loopinsight.com</a></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">So what I found was actually quite interesting. Although the data applies to the USA market but in general, I don't expect it to change that much for the rest of the world. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">First of all, I've never expected that close to 4% of the total iPhones running about nowadays in the USA are the iPhone 2G!! Yeah, the original one with the aluminum back. I was thinking that they can't even top the 1% scale. And most surprising of all, close to 90% of all iPhones are not jailbroken!! Although the USA government has legalized jailbreaking of the iPhone in the country, but it seems like most people are still sticking to the stock good 'ol system rather than swaying to the Dark Side. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">As for the rest of the data, you can get them from the infographic by <a href="http://paidviewpoint.com/iPhone5_part-1">paidviewpoint.com</a> below. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
