There is a fundamental difference between a smart man and a wise man. A smart man makes a mistake, learns from it and never makes that mistake again. But a wise man finds a smart man and learns from him how to avoid that mistake altogether.
Now I take your attention to the Ukraine,
Seeing that their arguments remained unsolved as the government decides to turn the blind eye to their requests, I fear the worst for them, and thus I hope that other nations can take this as a lesson to never fall though.

Samsung... Why...
That Awkward moment when Samsung Service Centre does all it can to avoid fixing your laptop just because they don't know how.
I strongly believe businesses should admit for their incapability of solving an issue, just by saying "I'm sorry, we really don't know what's wrong" is probably the best solution ever, as it creates an opportunity to pave a way towards creating a probable solution.
If they had just said that, I would had just politely asked them to give me a letter to acknowledge the situation and thus, by Australian consumer regulation I would simply get a refund from my seller, and it would be a win win...
but those bastards had to use every blame game in the book, format my pc and furthermore give a reason of "we thought formatting the pc would work..." after countless of times that I kept informing them that "It Won't Do Any Good Formatting".
Have you seen the new zoo in Sydney?
It's at 8 Parkview Drive Homebush Bay NSW 2127.
filled with pretty awesome Chimps... :)

Life as it is
I've been going through a certain a degree of silence, with things going on....
and it has definitely left me with reasons to believe that the human spirit is probably the only thing in the world that no one or thing can replicate.... it is probably the only thing in the world that no matter how hard you try to imitate or break it reals back into an individual that precedes it.
out...

The Coffee Addiction
I'm bored... woke up at 4 am and did a research on Coffee... :)
My conclusion after 2 hours...
Coffee obviously has caffeine which is pretty much a drug because it has the similar withdrawal symptoms as most drugs.
Yes it would suppress certain neural functions of the brain causing you to ignore sleep etc etc etc
but during the duration of withdrawal, the body would be subjected to conditions such as
anger, misjudgment , fatigue , lethargy , constipation , depression , muscle stiffness, and irritability (due to hyper sensitivity.)
So basically we become the sissy-fied version of the hulk that can't smash stuff..
A continued intake of this substance would profoundly alter the body's reliance on regular minerals to be dependable on caffeine on the long term therefore weakening the body's natural defense mechanism and increasing your chances of getting major illness/diseases.
well have a good morning everyone... and try starting your day with an apple, it works about the same... I'm gonna go get my self a cuppa coffee.. :)

How clean could u make it?
7 Days in a week...
and everyday you insist on vacuum the house....
I know you're trying to act all "I'm a good wife"
But if you try too much and only when the parents are over....
It shows how much of a Hippocratic Idiot that you are....

I may not be an American
From the title,
It says so little but could just mean so much.
I may not be an American, but if i could i would place my support for Obama.
Many did say that this video may be a propaganda tool,
Further elaborating that what he did is not right.
I did my research on every topic covered in the video..
and damn i'm proud to see a human being of his status living up to his promise.
His promise of Change.
Looking at the great United States of America.
It was obvious that the country was in unstable decline during the Bush Administration.
As all they did was pumped money into the economy hoping that the problems would go away.
After assuming power, hard decisions were made.
One would think of that moment where decisions made are not worth the Risk.
But just as a game of Poker, You'll never know you've won till you see your opponents hands.
I am extremely intrigued on the possibility of a secondary Bail-Out for America's Automotive Industry.
Where proposition was pointing on the fact that companies like General Motors were loosing money by the second.
It was obviously clear to a regular mind that a bail-out would be preposterous!
He did it anyway.......
With harsh terms and conditions where the government would play a significant role in the management of the industry till the loans are paid back.
And knowing now that GM showed an increased growth on the past few years proves that there had been a change. and in just 2 years loans were paid back in full and the company has begun hiring again.
Many do complain on the presidents stance in a Green America, but one thing for sure his recent gas mileage limitation on all vehicles in america shows that he may sacrifice a rich commodity(Gasoline) for the sake of environment.
And as a double edge sword is sharp on both ends, this decision has pacified the Oil Hungry Nation. This would clearly improve conditions for the future of the nation.
One this is still for sure,
after viewing Defranco Nation and Sourcefed's live feed on the DNC and DRC.
*links down below*
has somehow pointed out that the Occupy movement, originally having a good cause, is currently being drifted from their main objectives.
As i dug through the masses of information all over the internet. I could only clearly summarize that,
The Occupy Movement is fought by modern day hippies whom don't want to get their sorry ,lazy fat asses of the ground to get work done. They believe that "BLA BLA BLA" but their actions justify else. But it's obvious that their cause is slowly diminishing and they would greatly prefer to be fed by the government if possible...
If there are any protesters on my site now..
I fully recommend you to come on down to Australia!
where the government will feed you constantly and take care of you till the day you die on the expense of others.....
The true protesters of the movement have long gone back into the workforce as conditions have significantly improved.
Placing all this problem aside, i wish that the Malaysian Government could at least practice half the capability of the current American Government.
But it is obvious that we Cant compete with a nation of that magnitude, but it is still possible that we could the least change the direction in which the nation is heading....
I do hope and pray for the sake of the future generations....

Just a Quiet Sunday in UNSW
| Spring is coming on this quiet day... |
It's a quiet Sunday in UNSW,
Made a trip from Parramatta just to attend a group discussion
with my mates
What’s the discussion on?
Ethics...
Yes... ethics...
We're just making an early preparation on the topic of
Environmental Ethics: Desalination.
To be honest, I still
feel that ethics is rubbish… and you can’t teach ethics…
You and only
provide information based on ethics, regardless of that individual accepting it
as his own is uncontrollable….
Oh well…
Back to study…
Seeya..

Entrepreneur Engineering - Apple Vs Samsung.
Well, this is my final semester in UNSW,
I did chose to take it a little easier,
dropping most heavy engineering subjects for the slightly relaxed Business courses.
On the recent class , I've honestly found that the topic covered was fairly interesting as it was regarding Samsung's and Apple battle for patent rights.
Check out this link.
From my perspective, i greatly find that the whole issue in the court battles is just apples way of showing a ridiculously large amount of force...
Many would disagree to my point...
but..
lets go alittle back in time...
when it was
Apple vs HP...
that was a pretty sad event from my perspective as HP had to withdraw its product from many places around the world.... Causing losses so high which was almost an under blow to HP giants technology sector.

Going back to our main agenda, Apple and Samsung,
most of my concerns could be explained in this comic.

Going back to our main agenda, Apple and Samsung,
most of my concerns could be explained in this comic.
Suing on the base of patent reasons is just a little off.
As the patent war went into topics such as the single finger swipe which apple claimed to have patent.
and the multi touch functionality of the screen.
It seems not worth fighting for as the patent itself in my opinion is rubbish.... imagine, if someone did patent the qwerty keyboard, and because of that patent, only companies whom purchased licence agreements are allowed to used that design...
wouldn't that just cause mass confusion in the consumer market?
imagine every company has a different computer keyboard for the laptops/desktops.
Just not right.. isn't it?
That's exactly what that single patent is doing....
it's not "Design" It's in humans nature to do things...
even on a regular piece of paper, to flip it you pull it from a page to another...
it physics... and not something that was only created by programmed function.....
Furthering on this claim, It is obvious that apple wants to achieve market dominance/superiority in the Smart Phone Sector.
If not, they would have already pursue the hundreds of companies which made a fool out of apple products.
here are a few links on this topic that i'm pretty sure would excite you more ....
Link 1 - Apples Win Ushers an era of nastiness.
Link 2 - The Hi-phone 5
Link 3 - This Phone is relatively better than the iPhone....
Many Will disagree on my basis saying that apple
"CAN'T ENTER CHINESE MARKETS TO REMOVE THE PESTS"
Would you not agree that a mega company like apple would be able to "delete" its competition...
why didn't they just do what they did to Samsung to the little Chinese Counterparts?
Just cause they don't see the threat like Samsung would...
I'm not hating on Apple Corp, as I have owned several of their products.
This does change future events in the coming markets.
and Samsung didn't really loose....
nor Apple truly won...
"Consumers loose"

Wonder
Sometimes i do wonder, is it so that bad things happen cause it just does?
Or would it be due to a chain reaction that we could not foresee...
Oh, I'm so angry right now due to stupid reasons...
Furthermore it is not my fault...
sigh,
