My Father

Yesterday night my father went over to assist me over the car problem when i have trouble over my car engine somewehere where i got stuck near the aprking lot, I called him for help and he went all over from home to the destination in wee hours of the night. He didn't says anything just answer and go. He reached there and pull out the tools and do what best to help his children under hot weather, dusty, damp and oily work on the car engine. He use all his strength to push the car, pull out s ome hard tighten bolts and something that is beyond my normal strength. He says, "start the engine"..so i did but it fail. Then he continue toiling sweats for more than an hours. I asked him we should hire mechanic or tow truck or something but he says no, everthing is fine let we do by ourself. So i just sit back and watching as i don't know much about fixing a car. Late at night everything didn't worked well so he did some DIY tow cable and tow me all they way home without hesitation or second tought.
Back at home he slept late after settle some house work, teaching my sister school stuff, helping my mom on my grandmother medical care, and get back to check the car engine. He get on back looked tired, sweatty and yet very old in his age.
Throughout my life my father never fight and question about his children needs and reason when at times when in demand. Most people father just ignore their children and assume their children can stand on their own. Lucky me my father care so much and he will take anything to protect his love ones. I knew him very much, he is not the type seeking for material gains and fortune from his children. All he want to see is a better life for his children and family. Thats it. I wish i could repay him something that could make him happy and a way to appreciate what he has contribute to us. Maybe one day i could....make him happy until the end of the days. I love my father very much, i hope he knows too. May god bless him with fortune and happiness and also protect him on his journey of life.

Forgot my own birthday today. Happy birthday.

My days is just like any normal day, i wake up, take bath, go to work, play and sleep. Regardless its holiday, special day or new year. Everyday is the same nothing surprise me or to be celebrated. Even today is my birthday, i just treat my birthday like normal days. Nothing special about today. As usually i just go about my daily do's and enjoy what i do best today solo.
I was surprise people over internet forum reminded me that today is my birthday. I'm glad and very happy that someone very distance, unseen, but united digitally/virtually do care much about personal thing. I'm very mature when using internet. I know my judgement when trust people over the net. Actually i trust peopler more over the internet rather than people around me that's is infront of me. Ya we know its a cruel world we live in but that a reality.

Should i sell mini-z or not?

I have some delima, i'm not that rich guy who can get another enthusiastic stuff for hobby nor able to keep it long to maintain it. As you know i have several MINI-Z (miniature size 1:28 scale hobby grade radio control models) which is very fun to drive but very expensive to maintain as the parts very hard to come by and its a rare item to be sell or sold off in our local market. After thinking long term affect i decided to switch my level to a better platform.......i'm going for 1/8 NITRO or Electronic Brushless engine which is easy maintenance cost, more parts availability and fast but require bigger space and huge ebergy consumption. MINI-Z is fun especially being outdoors but it too much addictive! Once you're addicted the parts upgrade was too much of a cost vs the bigger scale models. Should i sell or should not....errmmmmmm...

A man garbage is another man treasure

At our local http://www.miricommunity.net forum i manage to sell of some garbage i found at the store, ranging from old computer parts, broken electronics to unwanted big boy toys stuff. Business was good for 2nd stuff from my old treasure box, it looks like i could sell off almost 80% of my stuff rather than landed inside the dustbin. Having some cash was awesome and great way to clear off unwanted stuff from my room. Pity me i dun have much memorable item to keep. I'm the type of guy who just keep memorable item in the brain rather than in a form of solid material. This week is very known as "A man garbage is another man treasure". All those funds will be used to fix my bike and get some parts for large scale radio control off-roader.

The travelling man.

There's so much interesting event happening to me this week. I travel a lot with my co staff going from one company branch to another provide training to several worker to various companies. As project team leader for new company LAN System my task was pretty much sit like "sit back and watch your stuff in action". For period of 4 days going up and down and meet new faces in every meeting room seem to make me pretty numb or bored for a while. The best part is that we manage to tour around company biggest property around and get free lunch in first class venue. Sometimes I wish i just get back to my cosy table and start clicking the mouse over the software coding and modification. Network programming sounds fun but if i stick too long on the same project its like reading a 4 year old newspapers. Anyways thank god i have PSP aka walkman beside me to keep me entertained and enjoy my work for hours. Untill the end of this week trip i took lots of photo on PSP cam to documented my memories into the blog so that i can look back and experienced the past opportunity.
