Bonquet Royale

Sorry guys... and girls... it has been like 1 month since i last updated.... been lazy and busy at the same time... I never had the time to write bout my college prom nite.... it happend kinda way back... There is was... the day of 25th August arrived.... It was the day of my prom nite.... and also my sis graduation.... so i had to wake up like 8 in the morning at get ready for my sis convo....... let me jus cut the story short.... when there... sat like a fool for bout 45 mins..... i was sirring down on the chair listening to some music.... my sis and parents came out later and we took pictures... DONE...



Getting back to the story.... Got back to college bout 4.45pm and quickly dressed up and shaved and did my hair and was ready by 5.30pm... My prom date was not to go to Pan Pacific with me... she will be going by herself cuz she was involved in the performances... So.... At 5.30 i was waiting with a bunch of my frens in front of the reception of the college as that is where the college buses will be picking us up... In one hand was my camera and on the other was a rose for my prom date.... All my other girl frens on the bus said it was very sweet and romantic thing for me to do... hehe... when i arrived there, I called up one of my frens who was in possession of my ticket... he said he was on the way... His "on-the-way" was bout half an hour... So.... picture me as a guy who was standing at the lobby near the entrance for half an hour with a rose in my hand... it was rather embarrassing in a way... it looks like my date is not going to turn up or something...

When she did turn up... i gave her the flower and she was absolutely flattered... As we sited ourselves on our respective table, my other frens were snapping pictures like there was no tomorrow... It din take me long to get started with those picture snapping... As the program... i could hardly be bothered by wats happening.... i jus saw a bit of this and that.... hehe... jus spent more that half of my time flirting with my prom date who appears to be one of the nominees for the prom queen....

My Prom Date.... The onli performances i can remember which was some indian dance which sucks horribly which made me not proud to be an indian... and i obviously have to remember the choir performance... cuz my prom date was singing in it.... ill upload the picture when i get a good picture of it... The sad part was that i din get to dance with her cuz she went clubbing with others on my table... i was not so in the clubbing mood that day and i din have enuff money to go clubbing... hehe...

Here are some pictures from the prom nite...

Language Translation Humor... #2

If u have missed the first Sequel of the Language Translation Humor then it out here...


6) Patah Hati --> Broken Liver

"Patah hati" actually means heart break when directly translated means broken liver..

"Saya patah hati akibat perbuatan anda itu." --> "I broke my liver because of wat u have done."


7) Kereta api --> Fire car

"Kereta api" actually means train... This is really ironic.... can u imagine wat will happen if a car is on fire???? it will blow....

8) Break down --> Patah Bawah

ill jus give u an example... "He is suffering from a nervous break-down."... in malay... "Dia menghidapi kegelisahan patah bawah."

9) Baju Sejuk --> Cold Clothes

"Baju Sejuk" actually means Winter wear... I cant imagine anyone wearing cold clothes during winter... its like digging your own grave...

10) Telur Mata Kerbau --> Buffalo eye egg

"Telur Mata Kerbau" actually means sunny-side-up egg... Here is an example.. in Malay... "Saya suka makan telur mata kerbau dengan roti"... in English... "I like to eat buffalo eye egg with bread".... Ewww...

Vista Tips 101 #1

1. Administrator Account in Vista

There are differences in Vista between accounts with "computer administrator" privileges and the Administrator account...... Accounts with "computer administrator" privileges are ones added to the Administrators local group..... The Administrator account, also a member of the local Administrators group, is a separate account that has higher privileges than other users in the local Administrators group. This is very different from previous versions of Windows.

1. To login with the true Administrator account, the account first has to be enabled. By default, the Administrator account is disabled.

2. You can enable the Administrator account with one line from an elevated command line :
net user administrator somecomplexp@ssword /active:yes

3. One More Step: Note: I have not noticed this to be true, but I am passing it on in case:
I have also read that there is one more important thing that needs to be done in Vista to enable the Administrator account. Not only do you have to enable the Administrator account, you also have to disable all other accounts with computer administrator privileges - before the Administrator account can be used as the "Superuser" Administrator. This is unusual, but not surprising considering Microsoft's phobia about security. After you enable the Administrator account, just right click each account in the local Administrators group and disable them. Then reboot the PC and login as Administrator.


2. Add an elevated command line

1. Click Start and type command in the search box... it will then display a number of item.... right-click the shortcut to Command Prompt and click Pin to Start Menu

2. Right-click the shortcut to Command Prompt in the start menu list and click Properties.

3. Click the Advance button and select Run as Administrator . Click Ok to save your settings.


3. Turning off UAC (User Account Control)

1. You can also turn off UAC in Control Panel, User Accounts. Click the link there that reads Change security settings, then, Turn User Account Control Off.

OR

2.Press the Windows + R keys to bring up the RUN window.... type msconfig and then press ENTER... open the Tools pane and then scroll down to Disable UAC and click once on that line. Click the Launch button.


4. Personalizing Your Own Shortcut Keys


The quick launch bar has been there since ages, but it is a little more useful in Vista...

1. Drag a program or a file into the quick launch toolbar.
2. Press the Windows key button on the keyboard plus the number 1 to launch or switch to the first item on the Quick Launch bar.
3. Press Windows key + 2 for the second, and so on.
4. For shortcut number 10, use Windows key + 0.


5. Resize Partitions with Vista Disk Management

Previously, in Windows XP, it was not possible to resize the partition without any data lost... the most common way was to delete the partition and then shrink it or expand it.. Now in Windows Vista it is now possible to resize partitions without any data loss in the new Disk Management console.


1. Click on the Start Button and right click on Computer and select Manage.
2. Expand the Storage section and select Disk Management.
3. Then just right click on any partition and select either Expand or Shrink to change the size of the partition.

This will allow you to safely resize your partitions without any data loss.

Back at Home

Yes...

Exams are finally over... i sat for 3 freaking hours doing my last paper today... engineering drawing... its not to say hard... but i din have time to finish it up.... i onli did 2 and 3 quarters out of 3 questions...

damn it... never mind... ITS MY SEMESTER BREAK NOW!!!!!! NEXT SEMESTER I WILL FINALLY BE A SENIOR IN COLLEGE...

HP Pavilion HDX

This laptop is ranked as the top 5 DirectX 10 gaming notebook... for those who dont noe wat is directX... Here it is...

Microsoft DirectX (Direct eXtension) is a collection of application programming interface for handling task related to multimedia, especially game programing and vedio, on Microsoft platform. It is a direct competitor of the OpenGL standard. The latest version of DirectX is DirectX 10 which is onli available in Windows Vista.

The following are the full specifications of the laptop... take a deep breath first before reading it... it might just shock u...


Intel Core 2 Duo T7700 2.4Ghz, <-- Super Duper Fast
667Mhz FSB, 4MB L2 Cache
4GB DDR II RAM <-- Too Much of RAM for me but its good..
400GB Hard Disk Drive
ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT, 256MB GRAM <-- High Quality Graphics
DVD Super Multi Drive
20.1" TFT LCD <-- Wide screen... But its a little too big to carry
WiFi, Bluetooth,
1.3 M pixel web camera, Finger print sensor
Windows Vista Ultimate <-- Vista Ultimate... U gotta be Kidding...
7 kg (with battery) <-- Too Heavy....





OK... That was a hell of a spec for me... its like a dream machine... it has a very powerful processor... T7700 is rarely seen in the market or even in the outside market... i've seen T7200 and T7400... About the RAM... Windows Vista is said to have best performance with 2GB of RAM (thats wat im using) ... But 4GB of RAM... that is crazy... But it will allow users to get the maximum performance out of their games.... 400 GB HDD??? the first thing that comes to my mind when i see this big hard disk capacity is storing A LOT of movie files...


ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT is a high performance graphic card that will be able to support high-end games.... for more info on this graphic card and its comparison to other graphic card, it can be found here... the screen size is rather big... 20.1"... i cant imagine my self carrying it around... it will be like carrying a samsung LCD monitor around... and its weight.... 7kg... u gotta be kidding me... its like carrying 3 normal weight laptop (2.4kg).... i mean a laptop has to be mobile.. this makes it sound like a desktop...


Prem's conclusion: This laptop has a great performance and gamers will crave for it... but i feel its not the ideal choice for me judging on the screen size and the weight... i dun think i will like the idea of carrying around... there is no price given for this laptop when i read bout it and this laptop has not been released in Malaysia yet...

Away!

Sorry... for not updating.... im reading harry potter and the deadly hollows now... i have another 200 pages to go.... so till then there will be no blog post... sorry.....

ok.. its time to party now... anywayz... im back in KL already and i brought my desktop back with me...

Language Translation Humour... #1

This was the game my group played during ice-breakers for the blogger's buff.... the game is simple... find any word when directly translated from English to Malay or vice-versa will sound funny or stupid.....

1) Terima Kasih -> Receive love

in Malay... "terima kasih" means thank you... but when directly translated it means receive love... to come to think of it... terima kasih shud be something said during valentines day and not on daily basis... can u imagine someone saying "terima kasih" atas meminjami buku anda itu. in English it iwll be "receive love" for lending me ur book...

2) Hardware -> Pemancu Keras

Computer hardware in Malay will be pemancu keras... wat bout software then??? Pemancu Lembut????

3) Teh-tarik -> Pulling tea

ah... Teh-tarik... the ultimate mamak shop menu... "teh-tarik" is a special style of serving tea in the mamak shop... so when u want to order u will say something like this... "Abang, kasi satu teh-tarik"... in english... "Could i have a pulling-tea please?" ...

4) Nasi lemak -> fatty rice

this must be the most ironical mean ever.... or even women's worst nightmare... Nasi lemak in malay means "fatty rice"... Nasi lemak is actually a Malaysian delicacy which consist of rice and anchovies chilli paste... i mean nowadays.. everyone is into this dieting scheme and everyone wants to look thin... will u actually consider buying "nasi lemak" if u noe it is full of fat???

5) Sweet Heart -> jantung manis

sweet heart means jantung manis in Malay... sweet heart is something u will call ur girl fren or couple or wat so ever.... imagine this situation.... u have not seen ur girl fren in a while and u miss her badly... so u give her a call... "sweet heart... i miss u so much......." in malay how do u think it will sound??? "jantung manis.... aku rindukan kau bergila-gila babi"

ok... thats it for now... ill post the rest next week.... keep an eye for the next translation... if u have any good ones please let me noe...
