I really wanted to blog about Transformers, but didn’t want to spoil it for others. Then I remembered that I am on Wordpress and there’s the password-protected function. Brilliant!
But then it turned out that this function is not working properly on my template, so fuck it. So… if you have yet to watch the movie, stop reading right now.
TRANSFORMERS WAS BLOODY AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111111
Okay, some parts weren’t so awesome.
But most parts were awesome!
Now I am expecting every car on the road to transform into an awesome alien robot!
I want to watch it again!!!!!!!!!1111111
YOU GO WATCH IT TOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!1111111

Okay for something more serious…
Something along the lines of Sirim is thinking of introducing OOXML as an ISO Standard. Naturally, people are opposed to this because:
1. There is already a standard ISO26300 named Open Document Format (ODF): a dual standard adds costs, uncertainty and confusion to industry, government and citizens;
2. There is no provable implementation of the OOXML specification: Microsoft Office 2007 produces a special version of OOXML, not a file format which complies with the OOXML specification;
3. There is missing information from the specification document, for example how to do a autoSpaceLikeWord95 or useWord97LineBreakRules;
4. More than 10% of the examples mentioned in the proposed standard do not validate as XML;
5. There is no guarantee that anybody can write a software that fully or partially implements the OOXML specification without being liable to patent damages or patent license fees by Microsoft;
6. This standard proposal conflicts with other ISO standards, such as ISO 8601 (Representation of dates and times), ISO 639 (Codes for the Representation of Names and Languages) or ISO/IEC 10118-3 (cryptographic hash);
7. There is a bug in the spreadsheet file format which forbids to enter any date before the year 1900: such bugs affects the OOXML specification as well as software versions such as Microsoft Excel 2000, XP, 2003 or 2007.
8. This standard proposal has not been created by bringing together the experience and expertise of all interested parties (such as the producers, sellers, buyers, users and regulators), but by Microsoft alone.
If you too wish to say NO to OOXML as an ISO standard, feel very free to sign the petition here. Some folks over at Open Malaysia blog will then present the signatures to someone or the other.
That’s all for now.
One day I got home from work and my mom brought Ryan to my room. My sister had smacked Ryan earlier because he was naughty, and here he is complaining about it at the behest of his grandmother…
Over the weekend at Bar Ceylon…
Girl balancing a mug of beer on her knee for the longest of time. I was rather impressed…
Mr. Tall and FA kawaii-posing. Mr. Tall, as implied by his nick-sake is very tall and enjoys Justin-jokes

I would like to extend my heartiest congratulations to mah buddy Peter, for Wuan has agreed to marry him!!!
You are both wonderful, wonderful people, and deserve every bit of happiness there is under the glittering sky…
… or something much more poetic than that MWAHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhHH!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111
I found out that it is easier for me to be not happy, rather than happy.
Not happy, I can manage and manage it well.
With being happy, there’s the expectations of things to come.
Then kalau tak jadi, hati runtuh macam Batu Caves, pastu buat wayang lah.. nangis sini sana lah… buat kecoh dari Jepun ke India…
Dulu masa sekolah kita buat lawatan sambil belajar. Kita gi pusat orang giler kat JB. Ntah aper nama dia kot. Malas aku nak PC PC — sebab aku emo, that’s why aku boleh panggil dia orang giler. Giler, giler lah.. bukannya aku yang kasi stigma pada dia orang.
Yang aku nak luahkan ialah, kalau dasar expectations tu tak dapat dikecapi, aku bukan main boleh buat hal macam orang giler yang aku nampak kat pusat orang giler tu. Tulah yang aku tak nak. Aku nak in control ngan perasaan aku, minda aku, tingkah-laku aku. Kalau dah macam orang giler, maner boleh control, kan?
Ntahlah… buat kepala aku pusing je… bukan main meluat bila aku pikirkan masa budak Belanda tu buat aku runsing. Malas aku nak cerita, yang aku confirm ialah aku tak nak situasi tu berulang. Perit hati tau!
Dah, habis emo dah… actually belum lagi tapi aku karang dah penat, nak masuk tido balik.
