Im Now Taking Order

This may sound cocky, but to whom that wishes to send prayers (while im in umrah), please leave in this comment box. If shy or anything, drop me a mail at edwinmasripan[at]gmail.com.

My prayers goes out to all the living creature who knows me (vice-versa),
"may You bless everything good to these people. and if You decide to place burdens upon their shoulders, lighten it by placing on me. Bless them with kindness, as they have been really kind to me. Bring them happiness as they have brought happiness to me. Worry them not, as they have worried so much for me. Forgive them for every sin theyve committed. Shower them with light on the path to righteousness. and if You decide not to grant any of my personal prayers, then please grant this one. Amin"

really cocky, but thats what i feel. thank you for being my friends. only God knows how much i value each and everyone of you.

AJAX Application

Disclaimer: If you dont want to know whats hot from the web oven, feel free to skip this post.

You've probably heard about AJAX or WEB 2.0. They are the one behind myspace, digg, prada, friendster etc and many more. Ajax is not a programming language but actually is. Its a combination of both. Its like HTML. Many argue that its a programming language, to me, it never will be. It's too easy.

What it does?
AJAX plans to work like your desktop application. The part where its fast, clickable and draggable etc. thats not 'it'. its actually more than that. a normal website requires you to click around, wait for the page to load and wahla.. another never ending page. Ajax works to bring you the data before clicking it. Whilst the speed of internet is getting faster, Ajax plans to use the bandwidth lesser. it uses less resource compared to java applet, faster than flash and most importantly, CROSS OVER PLATFORM. so it doesnt matter what IE or firefox you use, it'll work.

How does it help your life?
Ever complain about not enough time? Ajax is the answer. faster than anything else. it simplifies everything. each application is design to give you ease of use. forget about user-friendly, its what i call, childs-play.

The future
Ajax is the future of web. its fantastic. you look at it, you go WOW. Lord of Motherf***** or something like that (at least i would). if you know nuts about html, you better start learning now, at least a piece or two. seriously you need to. (im ashamed to say, im better at reading raw html than the Qoran)

My Plan
I have been thinking about it 2-3 years ago. but somehow these past few months caught me. my workload is like crazy, i have meetings everywhere, my money is short, client havent issued payment, junior asking for job, mom & dad sending me to umrah, adek wants to wrestler with me before bed.. its madness. i came across my black notebook with white cows on it, i realized i have noted so many great ideas from the past (when i was pretty much sane). one of it was, a friendster and myspace clone. there was one point where, "you have to pass this message around if dont want your friendster account to close".. you know, that kinda crap. their earning are from ADVERTISEMENT get it you numb nuts.

XXXXX dot whatever..
just like my many other site like kahwin2u, tazqirah, mckk9600, they are just my flagship to challenge myself and test my-self-developed marketing techniques. all 3 website are doing very well, average hit a month about 3000 unique users altogether. thats a lot.

Next Project
I dont have a name for this project (feel free to suggest the name), but ive already started working on it. Features include MP3 DOWNLOADS, RINGTONES,VIDEO STREAM, BLOG and PHOTOBLOG also FOOD RECIPE! (somehow im gasping for breath when caps). its not cool actually. i copied the ideas of others. kawanla.com? gilelah.com? alamak.com? haimeh.com? no good idea. i was hoping for someone to give some wicked meaningless name like nike, zookuda, meebo but reflects malaysia. oklah. till then.

The Great Escape

"Throw it away, forget yesterday, we'll make a great escape..."
i heard this song few weeks ago on the radio. why so late? ive heard this song about a year ago. sometimes i just dont get it, great songs are suppressed by pop and hip hop beats. anyway, they're great band. its worth buying the album. fantastic emo.

i maybe flying off for umrah on 9th sep. i hope there is still a space for me. my dad is paying for it. its been ages since i left this country. i need a solace..

i think im sick. i want to get real help. but mom wont allow it. i know my level of sickness. you dont have to tell me this that this that. it hurts most when i lost family support. just accept it, im sick. i really need help. friends and family can only go as much as listening. i just lost hope in this world.

avril - whan youre gone

wah.. this is definitely an emo song. oh how i hate this kind of song.. urgh..

last weekend my family planned a trip to north, through pahang, kelantan, perlis, penang, and perak finally back to kl. unfortunately they left me while i was working with my client on something. they asked me to take a flight to catch up with them.. you kidding me?

family comes first. but leaving me behind (when i was about 1/2 hour late) was absurd! i rather stay at home and become a bangla-jaga-rumah, then fly to catch up with you guys.

anyway, we had a great weekend. by we i meant, izrin, fadli, iqhbal, mache and faqroul. on friday night, the usual TT (teh tarik) session at old town cafe cheras. although named as teh tarik session, we had coffee. often we texted each other, "jom mabuk". it actually means, drink and talk crap. on sat night, we went to the fireworks competition. it was spectacular. being the gay we were (and will be?), we had fun with some posed photo. the theme was 'album cover'.

then on sunday evening, we went to lade's wedding. a quote from past, "sure ko kawin dulu kan eddie?" hahaha. unfortunately, im not as lucky as you are lade. later in the evening, we had another TT at coffee bean (again no teh tarik). 4 hours plus talking about the past, present and future. marriage seems so far.. at least for four of us (mache, iqhbal, fadli n me), sigh.

congrats lade! i always knew you were the first to get married. so the 'sukantara' points continue
Ahmad - 2 (asaharawanis n mel) + 2 (for azalea) = 4
Sulaiman - 2 (skisbiha n ladina)
Mohd Shah - 1 (zack)
Idris - 1 (zaba)

yeah ahmad leading!
ps: baby count as 2, because its considered as one of many miracles.

50 Years of Merdeka and We Only Care about the FOOD

have you been listening to the radio lately? played over and over again, the true spirit of merdeka lies in our food. it saddens me, but its true. i myself planned to move to the uk, unfortunately its the food i cannot resist. for everything else, you have a mastercard. LOL.

is Malaysia really 'merdeka'?

my rants the current malaysia..

  • bad automotive industry, not just talking about proton here. include all car makers assembled in malaysia. if we have no tax on car import, these car makers would be dead by now. how much will you put a price on proton gen2? for me, 35k (but hey i bought one at 58k). buy malaysian, be patriotic! hmm.. your turn..
  • football. oh so sad. im not blaming on players nor the management, id put everything on the media. whats the fuss about EPL? according to alexa, malaysian is the 2nd highest visitor at premierleague.com. oh and please mr media, football is not malaysia's no 1 sport. EPL is.
  • politics. noted, malaysian higher powers are bringing in investors from all over the globe. its a good thing. everybody loves money but it doesnt equate to happiness and comfort. why? we are treated as second rate people!
  • the citizen. i love malaysian, so loving and caring.. yeah right! have you ever been to hartamas? people stare/glare as if you not wearing anything. how about accidents on the road? people slowdown to see whats happening but not to help. please la people, if you want to see something disgusting, google-lah. accidents are not freakshows. our mindset is wrong.. its just soo wrong. im not civilized myself, im wrong too.
  • petroleum country. but how come you keep increasing? arent we supposed to be subsidized like heaven? so these profit where does it go to? someone like us (professionals) may not be affected greatly. think about the outskirts or hulu2 people, do you think they can afford fuel like we do? sad..
  • traffic. kl traffic is bad. i dont drive anymore with 3 reasons on hand, petrol, parking and girls. its about RM5 from keramat to klcc and you actually have to beat an old lady with a stick to get a parking space, which cost RM7 for the day. i take LRT. i have to literally shove myself into the train in the morning. why cant you add more trains? too costly is it? have you thought about global warming? so which would you chose, money or malaysia? you dont need to answer that, its already written all over your face.
  • pollution. according to times, we can help to reduce global warming by planting more trees on the equator. but i see day after day pembalakan haram on the news. someone's pocket is definitely full. think about berkat..
  • malaysia with islamic rules. why does it seems like everyone is against it? here's why.. islam mengharamkan RIBA. you can fill in the details.
How we can improve Malaysia?
  • its not about the cover, its the content. we as the citizen must think like we're equals. be it indian chinese or malay. maybe its too much to ask, but if we could start to instill this ideal into our kids, Malaysia would be a better place
  • abolish sek jenis kebangsaan india/chinese. a very hard case, seems very unlikely because it has to do with HERITAGE. well yeah.. but have it taught in every school. dont you think its wonderful to see everyone speaks and reads all these 3 languages?
  • forget about english. speak malay. take for example germans, french and japanese. they are advance in their technology because the skipped the part where they had to translate. so you skipped the 'buffer' zone. was it a bad idea to teach kids math and science in english? i dont know, maybe a teacher can explain that. personally, it only confuses kids.
  • abolish tolls in outskirt areas. introduce tolls in big cities. increase road tax. intensify our transporting system. sounds stupid, but its actually good. my point, save mother nature! save malaysia for kids. only the rich gets to drive. or drive whenever necessary. more people will move outskirt. reduces traffic. byk lagi laa.. you think plak.
  • go back into agriculture, make it as no1 export industry. its green. save nature. food is more demanding than other industries. we need to eat more than we need a gadget.
i guess what im asking is a little too much. its just my bottled up thoughts. you can arrest under ISA, i dont care. but be sure to publish my face on the frontpage. God is fair. you can do anything to me, i will only pray that God will have mercy on your soul. ;)

Why 3G is Not Important, But Also Important

we've been stressed out by our local telco. cheap lah this plan. ours only 15 cent. this telco cheat people. i mean wtf? marketing is not about brushing people off your shoulder. heck i know, i can sell RM1 per minute and still get subscribers. why? thats for business students to answer, im just making that one up ;)

anyway, there's this thing called 3G, is it good? how so? well.. let me just.. on the fly.

Important

  • for org pekak/bisu to communicate via video call
  • for business or anyone to stay connected (internet)
  • for freakshow - so that we could position ourselves on the globe (tell me about it..)
  • tu je kot?
Not Important
  • introduces cost to telcos, which in return we pay for the service and hardware by slow falling of telco services rates.
  • introduces cost to MCMC, we paid tax right.. so thats where our money went.
  • we have EDGE. people say edge its slower, wrong! although EDGE has lower bandwidth compared to 3G, its still outperforms 3G anyday.
  • yehaa we have 3G too. crap.. fix the goddamn tmnet first!
  • Go WiMax. often foreigners come to malaysia with lappies, and not 3G phones. they need connectivity for WiMax not 3G, dumbass. germans only use nokia3310! they only need to call and sms, for other things, they use a laptop!
Fact
  • klang valley has 3G, my house has too, but my room, NO.
  • penang has 3G, but the line connects and disconnects so often that i gave up using 3G
  • digi will not be approved to use 3G, thats why they are bombarding the nation with their cheaper plans. (correct me if im wrong)
  • 3G contributes to global warming. heat from 3G servers. video calls = shorter battery life = frequent charging = electricity = more charcoal burning. LOL
  • 3G contributes immoral acts. horny people phone-sex using 3G other than webcams.
  • 3G infrastructure is very slloooooooooooooooow. how long did it take to penetrate kelantan? 2 years? although known to be packed mase raye, still sluggish?
  • RM10million is needed per 3G tower (more or less). who gets the profit? spread out evenly? the company even declared loss at the end of the year.. gile ke ape?
ok la. mase utk bace samurai X ;)

New Phone Under RM2K

mache and fadli (also iqhbal) are seriously looking forward to get PDA phone. i myself am not sure about the hype. so i did some googling, lowyating, mypdacafeing, gsmarenaing and cnetasiaing. it came down to 3 hours, and i have yet to find my best bet. so i decided to draw a little mindmap (in case i get lost and overlooked at some details).

the contender was pretty easy at first, but as i dwell into the inner secrets and technical review as well as user's ive come up with the following conclusion. things to look forward to, below 2K, WIFI, MSOffice Editing, Browsing, Qwerty interface or touch pad.

1. Sony Ericsson - P990i: they say it is the best. it cost about RM1k++ has wifi, 3G, browser and many more. it looks rugged and means business but it has memory drainage problem. 64MB for RAM is old fashioned. can only view MSoffice.

2. SonyEricsson - P1: now the brother wants to kick ass but too bad, has the same leaky memory problem although shipped with 128MB RAM. it may work well in a few months time, after that, it gets complicated. its shipped with bugs from the predecessor. can only VIEW MSoffice. Priced at RM1.8K

3. Nokia - e61: I've been on and off nokia since the 3310, but i always go back SE as my solace. the good: qwerty keyboard, wifi, big screen, very stable, highly recommended. the bad: no touchy screen =( almost impossible to drive and type sms. a tag of RM1.6k

4. Dopod - 818Pro: very old fashioned hardware. its 3 years since its launch, so dont expect dopod to do something about the battery. everything can, except no 3G. looks girly though RM1.6k

5. Dopod - M700: the slimmest design. everything in except for 3G connectivity. users allover asia are very well satisfied with this phone. RM1.6k

6. Nokia - 9300i: the meanest contender for today, a communicator. does everything, but no 3G and touchy screen. its humongous. wont fit in your back pocket. and when you're talking on the phone, it looks like youre holding your shoe next to your face. nevertheless, highly rated for on-the-go peeps. RM1.2k

Winner
ah.. this is the sad part. as much as i would like to defy the significance of a bmw and a merc, id go for audi anyday. same as today, id go back to SEk750 anyday. why? you can accidentally throw out of the window when making u turns (it still works like charm), never hangs, leave at shop and buy a new one (its cheap), excellent photo, reliable buddy and best of all, its sturdy. good for the likes of me, throwing everything at the wall when in vain.

The Bet
if i dont have a clear decision, i wont recommend anything to my friends. so guys, looks like we're in for a long wait. or.. lets just use the money to fly to thai?

tm sucks




countless times, i have been patient with tm. i dont think i can tahan anymore.

disconnected since 31st july. ive contacted streamyx, it wasnt their fault. no payment due or anything. i called tm. no payment due or anything. so wtf? after series of troubleshooting using a dsl tester, there was no signal for dsl connection. so i called both streamyx and tm to check my connection. it took them 2 days to identify (why so slow la?) that my line was accidentally terminated. yikes. im not in the mood of scolding their operators, they're trained to a certain extend. dont expect them to know everything. but what the fuck? accidentally disconnected?

so what i can conclude here is TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.TM SUCKS.

maybe im just emotionally and physically ill.. diarrhea tak abes lg..

digusting entry

5 days (and going) i have diarrhea.. my ass hole hurts..

i have to go to toilet every 30mins including in my sleep (sometimes i sleep on the toilet seat to anticipate the crap).

oh God, sembuhkan lah perut aku ini secepat mungkin.
