Handlebars

I was chillin' at the living room earlier when I saw/heard this excellent song on MTV. Amazingly enough, MTV now don't really suck and play stuff besides boyband crap! Anyway, thought I'd share it with everyone. This is not the original video though but I think it fits the song very well.

Woohoo!! Vacation time!!

I gotta admit, I haven't been as excited about traveling for a long time! In 2 days though, I'll be drinking in the sights at south america. :D

Flight leaves sometime tonight (not sure exactly when...) and I'll have a stopover at Amsterdam (not sure how long...) while waiting to catch my connecting flight to south america (not sure which country...).

Hmm...I've a feeling I should've paid more attention to the itinerary! Now where did I put the damn piece of paper...Sheesh, I'm not even sure when I'll be back! All I know is that it'll be before fasting month.

Anyway, I've got a new pair of boots for the amount of trekking I'll be doing. The old one is literally falling a part. Served me well though! Heck, I did a lot of shopping yesterday so I should have enough clothes to last me for 3 weeks or so.

I think the highlight of the trip for me is probably Machu Picchu. If you have no idea what the hell that is, check out the following link:

I won't be bringing a camera as I figured I've spent enough money yesterday buying clothes and didn't feel like spending the same amount on a camera. Not to worry though! My sister's a shutterbug and a few days back in Malaysia, you'll probably see me tagged in some photos in facebook.

Cheers!

Well...I had nothing to do the other day so I decided to take a personality quiz!

You Are An INTP

The Thinker You are analytical and logical - and on a quest to learn everything you can. Smart and complex, you always love a new intellectual challenge. Your biggest pet peeve is people who slow you down with trivial chit chat. A quiet maverick, you tend to ignore rules and authority whenever you feel like it. In love, you are an easy person to fall for. But not an easy person to stay in love with. Although you are quite flexible, you often come off as aloof or argumentative. At work, you are both a logical and creative thinker. You are great at solving problems. You would make an excellent mathematician, programmer, or professor. How you see yourself: Creative, fair, and tough-minded When other people don't get you, they see you as: arrogant, cold, and robotic

What's Your Personality Type?

The Square Root of Three

I’m sure that I will always be
A lonely number like root three

The three is all that’s good and right,
Why must my three keep out of sight
Beneath the vicious square root sign,
I wish instead I were a nine

For nine could thwart this evil trick,
with just some quick arithmetic

I know I’ll never see the sun, as 1.7321
Such is my reality, a sad irrationality

When hark! What is this I see,
Another square root of a three

As quietly co-waltzing by,
Together now we multiply
To form a number we prefer,
Rejoicing as an integer

We break free from our mortal bonds
With the wave of magic wands

Our square root signs become unglued
Your love for me has been renewed

And I was craving for pasta the other day...

Went to 1920s in The Curve a coupla days back. I wanted something Italian but with a spicy twist. Hence, an arrabiata would be perfect!

I called the server to order and the conversation went something like this:

Me: I will have the penne ala arrabiata.
Server: You'll need a tray...
Me: Do you know who I am?
Server: Do you know who *I* am?
Me: This is not the game of who the fuck are you...for *I* am Vader...Darth Vader...Lord Vader. I could kill you with a single thought.
Server: You'll still need a tray.
Me: No, I will not need a tray, I do not need a tray to kill you. I could kill you without a tray...with the power of the force, which is strong within me.

(The rest of the conversation can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sv5iEK-IEzw)

PS: Btw, I really did get the penne ala arrabita. ;)

I YAM AH MAAN!

I just reaffirmed my manliness. After a year of driving a car with an automatic transmission, I drove a stick shift earlier tonight. No stalled engine makes me a happy man. :)

Random thought for 15/05/2008

I'm currently attending Cisco QoS training and this training involves some mathematical formula to calculate stuff. Outta the blue, it made me think about maths.

What is zero divided by zero? Is it zero, one or infinity? :P
