I have received a very informative forwarded email from Jimmy, thanks to him again. This email is written in both English and Mandarin, credit to the original poster. These tips are noted during a speech by Pat Malone, who was a body guard for famous figures like Farrah Fawcett and Sylvester Stallone. He also teaches hand-to-hand combat in various agencies.

Security has been always a major social issue in Malaysia, you read horrible news on a daily basis. I hope this forwarded email will help, at least to build more awareness around friends.

Another “10″s story. I feel a little sick lately receiving all the RSS feeds with topics like, “Top 10…”, “10 Most…”, “10 Reasons Why….”, “10 tricks…..” and on and on. What is the problem now? Some probloggers must have told everyone out there that numbers in topic or subject attracts more attentions? Whatever it is, many of these “Numbered” blog posts are not worthy to read in term of the content. This one, on the contrary, is something quite interesting that I recommend you to read.

Shaun Boyd on Lifereboot.com has written his own ‘10 Reasons It Doesn’t Pay To Be “The Computer Guy”‘, definitely worths your time. Find out the irony facts that being a “Computer Guy”, if you have been working in computer support, this is something you don’t want to miss.

This book is not new, but I’ve just learned about it today on a column in local daily newspaper. The article was written in Mandarin so I went on some google-ings, and Wow! How did I miss this? This girl Ma Yan should be 19 by now, this book contains daily entries of her in year 2001.

Background
Ma Yan was 13 when writing her stunning diary, during that time she and her brother were studying in a boarding school 12.5 miles away from her home, Zhangjiashu Village, NingXia, China. The only transportation available was farm tractor, which charged RMB$ 1 per trip at that time. They did not have the money to travel by it so they took 5 hours to walk back to home during weekends.

I just moved to new place together with my family. I took 3 days to actually tidy up all my stuffs and setup my work space, and there’s no ADSL here, yet. Application form has been submitted, let’s see how long will it take. By the way, it’s TM Net Streamyx(!!). Don’t you hope that WiMax can hit the road as soon as possible?

Anyway, I’m now stucked with Celcom’s 3G Plan. Not an ideal connection for heavy data user like me, even loading this blog is at “snail” speed. Better to save my posts in drafts on my local drive. Connection is my life, this is a recognized fact among friends.

After these few days of hard work(moving furnitures here and there), I started to worry about my HEALTH. I seriously need some fixes, offline stuff, can’t go on like this.

crap, life
