29 weeks

my baby girl is 29 weeks....see her face here... :)
got roughly 3 months for preparation...can't wait!1

my babies!

Been a while since my last entry. My wife is 6 months preggy. Feeling the baby moving in her belly makes me smile from ear to ear everytime i felt it. :)

Anyway, while waiting for the baby, I got 2 babies for free. A girl & a boy. Huhu..actually i got 2 kittens from my friend Hanah. Got it on 11th July ( as well as a b'day present for my wife).

This is Tim. Male. Grey silver. Looks like British short hair but we called it street short hair. Very playful, eats a lot!! But very "manja'..every night he'll come to me for to pet him to sleep. :D

This is Marble. Female. Calico. Shy girl. Hard to hold her. But not as naughty as Tim.

My food of choice is Blackwood. Not really expensive but as good as Royal Canin (fact i got from the net). The kits loves it...no complain.

McD - free 2 big breakfast?

My wife ask me last nite if we can have big breakfast this morning. I was thinking...it's 25th of the month...no salary yet. Adeh. Then she told me about the promo that she heard from facebook. I decided to google it. Demmmmmm....i found few sites regarding this promo. Spend RM 5 & get 2 free big breakfirst. Too good to be true? Although being skeptical,  I decided that it's worth the try. Found my printer, print out few coupons & wait till morning to try it out.

6 am, my wife woke me up & we drove to McD Taipan. Homaigod... the queue was 15 people long. Everybody have the coupon with them. It's 6.20am!!

My turn came & since minimum is RM5, i ordered 2 hotcakes & upgrade to hot milo... RM5.05..just nice ;). 

happy for the cheap breakfirst! :p

So, here i'm sharing the link to printout the coupon! Enjoy!!!! (just click on the image..black & white accepted)

Pauface getting 2.1 : Upgrading Xperia X10 from 1.6 to 2.1

Prabu got himself an Acer Liquid Metal with 2.2 Froyo. Aaron still stuck with 1.6. Dunno how to do, I googled & search for the ways to upgrade Android. Being a Blackberry heavy user, Android is such an alien for me. But after a night of researching, it wasn't so hard.

Here step by step on updating  to Android 2.1. (taken from here)

Step 1.

Download and install Sony Ericsson Update service from this page.

Step 2.

Make sure that you backup all the data on your phone like messages, contacts, market applications etc before you proceed with the update.

Step 3.

After you are done with the backup, run update service on your system. Make sure that your system is connected to the internet before you run the update service.

This step is divided into a checklist which needs to be considered before you begin.

a. Check that you have the USB cable for the phone.

b. Make sure that the phone battery is charged to at least 50%.

c. Make sure that your phone is not connected to the system.

The screen should look like the one below.

Check the license agreement statement and click Start to begin.

Step 4.

Select X10 and click Next.

Step 5.

Follow the instructions as they appear on the screen. For your convenience, find the instructions written below as well.

a. Turn off the phone and wait at least 30 seconds.

b. Connect the micro- USB cable to the USB port on the system.

c. Press and hold the Back key on the phone while connecting the USB cable into the phone.

d. Continue holding the Back key until a message saying, “Release the Back key” appears on the screen.

Step 6.

Let the update service check your phone and search for the latest update. Click on Update\Install to proceed with the same.

The update service would now start downloading the software which is approximately 161 MB in size. The download may take several minutes depending on the speed of the internet connection.

Step 7.

After the software file has been downloaded, the service would begin installing the new operating system on your phone. During this time, make sure that the phone remains connected to the system. It may take several minutes to complete, so please be patient.

Step 8.

After the software has been installed,  a message saying, your phone has been updated successfully, would appear on the screen. Click on Exit to close the update service.

Now, you can disconnect the USB cable and switch on the phone.

Step 9.

The phone might take a long time to boot up after fresh installation of the operating system. So, give it some time and set up the phone once it starts.

The phone would also seem to be a bit slow and laggy in the beginning. This is because the hardware needs to get accustomed to the new operating system. Play around for a couple of hours with the new update and you would find that the phone has resumed its fluidity.

Step 10.

Done!! It was simple. restoring also take only few minutes to finish.

Hurm...Android next? :p

media player : part 2

PC ekspo. Unable to resist & went with Amin. He bought Seagate FreeAgent® GoFlex™ 500gb  HDD which is RM20 cheaper than when i bought it last month!! Arghhhhhhh. Good deal. I only got 1 thing in my mind - survey for media player.

After 3 rounds, few choices, i go for this. Modeo Mini Full HD Media Player. :). Much cheaper compared to retail price at Digital Mall/ Low Yat. The downside is no Ethernet port (no online streaming). But other than that, amazing device. Support full HD & plays all the extension i have. MKV, MP4, RMVB, etc... plus the size is small 2" x 2". 

Modeo Mini Full HD Media Player

on top of hypptv box

Tested immediately once home. My choice - Avatar 720p. Excellence. 2nd choice - How To Train A Dragon 1080p. Excellence. No complain! The menu is so simple, operating is extremely easy - my wife mastered it within 5 minutes. 

Only a thing to do - subtitles doesn't work when separated in different folder. So i had to move my prefered subtitles to the same folder with the movie. 

So my system complete for now. Time to enjoy it... :)

media player?

Looking forward to complete my home theater system (for beginner that is). So for the final piece i'm looking for HD media player. Been torrenting a lot of movies. I need it to be:

• support HDMI - need to support full HD 1080 or 720
• support MKV & Mpeg-4 files
• black in color
• medium range

A few device i found& I'm intrested in 

KWorld Media Player M200

Seagate FreeAgent Theater + HD Media Player

Hurm, going to PC expo tomorrow with Prabu & Amin. See what i can find. :)

"unifi"ed! :)

Having a free internet account is good. Having a free internet account with un-capped usage is very good. Having a free internet account with un-capped usage BUT out of coverage & slow is useless. :)


Was finding a way to solve this. Streamyx? hurm, i got no phone line...total cost gonna be 300++. Then just brosing to www.unifi.my, my place is in coverage! yeahhhhhhhhhhhhh!! double confirm with my friend & lucky for me, they are waiving off installation fees & also free for the 1st month at that time. Without any haste, made my order online and set the appointment date. 


Came the day. Woke up early, just to prep the house for them to come. I wait. 8.30am - no calls. 9.00am - no calls. 9.30am (the time set for the visit) - still no calls. Give them another 10 minutes, called the careline & at 10.00am, they came. Actually only 1 man came. I had doubts. I literally ask him - "boleh ke buat sorang?". With confident he said "Boleh bang. Cuma lambat sikit jer la.". Erk...so i let it flow. 


He went to the back of my house. What do u know? The box is just behind my house on the phone pole.

the casuality

So the work began. He made some wiring at the box and pulling cable to my house. Inside, I'm snapping more pics.

Cut it short....the installation was over in 2 1/2 hrs. Efficient work, good technician.

the final product

the speed test :)

my new (old) crib

My home. My home sweet home. Been living here since 2006. At that time 10 of us (i think) lived here. Now only me & my better half. Time to re-decorate the once bachelor pad to a place i call home.


Re-moving in (been out of this house for a while since married). Phewwwwww....spend 2 days scrubbing & washing the place. Literally. But no pics - too busy to snap anything. Threw a lorry of thrash from the house. Just wanna make the house fresh.


Then a week later, my LCD + Home theater + Fridge came.....huhuhu..grinning from ear to ear. Of coz - it's from courts. No money to buy cash.

panasonic Viera - TH-L32U20K

panasonic compact satellite home theatre system - SC-PT22

 

panasonic 2 door fridge - NR-BU303MS

Looking forward to furnish my crib. Going out later to hunt for sofas & dining table plus whatever i can find. Hehe. (btw - the technician is installing Unifi while I'm typing this.)

new year...

it's the 21st day of the year. Alhamdulillah, i lived on to see another new year in my life..


It's exactly 1 year & 3 days i've been in this company...wooohoooo..&  i'm a confirmed employee. Rezeki nikah katanya. Really happy here, freedom of working with minimal supervision, get a saying in team decision, respect from team members & flexibility. Insyaallah, will be here for longer period...


Just wanna say that...daaaaaa

..la la la la la

nak merapu kejap..hahaha

Just finished my 5 days vacation... settling my son & my daughter school preparation. Now i know how mama & ayah felt everytime school starts... huhu. Literally terrified when looking at all the price tags..none the less..have to buy. Just can't take it looking at Aiman wearing his worn-out last year school uniform...kesian my bujang.

The hunt started on 1st January. Destination - Danga Bay Mall. Since ayah wanted to go to the gallery; Metrojaya is also there, so lets go. Result - not that good. Manage to grab 3 school shirt for Aiman. Failure on the parts. But manage to get Mya's barbie bag for RM 15.00. She was gleaming!!

Then ayah said dinner 1st. Yum yum.. tip top ikan bakar is the destination. Been eating here since 30 years back. Feel so good when can treating mama & ayah with my hard earned money. Too bad no pics available since didn't bring the cams. 

Then next destination - IOI mall Kulai. Homaigoddddddddddd... should have go here the 1st place. A carnival of school uniforms! Mission totally accomplished. 2 pairs of pants, 2 pair of shoes, 2 pair of baju melayu for sekolah agama, 3 pairs of socks & 1 sampin hitam. Xpa, burnt my pocket but it was worth it when i see Aiman's face.

2nd January. Nothing much. Went to few barber shop - all with at least 5 person waiting in queue. Last minute i guess (same as me). IOI mall again. This time Mya's shoes. Totally forgot about her shoes. She's starting her kindergarten years. :)

Here comes Monday. Owhh....woke up very early. 7am since need to send Mya for her registration. Wow....papa &  mama is very nervous!! Now i feel it... & now i know i need to save up for their education. Smart Reader gonna cost me 1k per year. :)


Afternoon, time to send Aiman. Huhuhu...my hero smiling all the way to school. Not even a single hint of nervous. Gooood. Alhamdulillah.


Think I stop here. Welcoming myself to the world of parenting. & I'm loving it !!!!
