Need More Input

I've been searching hi and lo for a place to study,part-time or online.I nearly got it in Segi, but then they deferred saying offering business only,what a screwed-up shit. I called OUM for an open entry for a Master programme, rejected as my age does not meet the minimum requirements. I found out this Asean e-University, maybe I'll try my luck there; they are offering OSS Master programme. How can I get exempted;;;?

New Toy

I just got me new notebook.I'm always interested in other than Intel,like previously Transmeta chip.Now I'm having AMD,vastly not accepted by many.I don't have much to spare,so I bought the lowest can get,no fancy Windoze buttons and no os also.My criteria of choice is always to compare both shift key sound;left should be equal.

Double track

New train service between KL and Ipoh starts on Dec 1st.I can't wait,I never travel on a train before.
http://www.nst.com.my/Current_News/NST/Thursday/National/2388481/Article/index_html.

Why was then I'm working in KL this service not introduce.I'm in Penang now, and the double track Ipoh to Padang Besar will only finish in 2013.I'll be rotten by the sea.

Sort of busy...

This week seem tight,but I completed couple of tasks.Our department is in dire need of helpdesk system.I evaluated 2 or 3 applications previously,now ended up with RT from Best Practical.It's an open-source with Apache2,Mysql and postfix/exim.Platform wise,although Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris is tempting,Linux have more tools for compiling.Latest RT 3.8.1,now I need to design the process flow(sigh).
This month also our company seem to stress on the Going Green Campaign.Blade server project seem green,I had to do the presentation for the HR; a very encouraging response from the HR boss.
Hopefully next week I have more task to do.
Enjoy the weekend...

Something to do...

Ahhhh...it's been long,I know,taking a very long raya break.
My blade project had a go status,what a relieve,it's a pure wreck havoc study;blade are categorised as modular system,I'm a mid range origin.
It's going to be a busy year end soon,the pentest result coming out soon,the blade are coming on the PO;;but I like all those tense.In the mean time,I'm deploying a new help desk system using RT from Best Practical.
I'd been testing with multiple distro,slackware,RH,ubuntu,solaris 10 and opensolaris,nice to know I can't still crack my head on it.I'll be testing it on the easiest distro first(ubuntu),but I need to wait late as my netadmin won't allow me to download big files before 6pm.

Ramadhan...last.


It's my last fast here in Penang today.I do miss something, but I really can't figure it out what.Maybe because I'm new here, so the heart always wonder.I might miss the Seberang Jaya Pasar Ramadhan though.Hope next year I'm still around.
Did you guys know today is the Quds Days.Imam Khomeini declared the last Friday in Ramadhan as the day to pursue war freeing Baitul-Maqdis and Palestine.I didn't know it also,I got the flyer here at Masjid Lebuh Aceh.

Maybe I miss the month itself.

Thanx

I never had the time to thank my previous colleagues,or maybe I didn't make the time for them.They taught me a lot,I have great respect.
To all my friends ,you guys rules:-
- paEho Rashid
- slakerjack
- squall irvine
- vishu(where r u man)
- `r`Res
- mr tapai

Maybe I should buy them lunch/dinner;not the hotel,they have higher pay than me what.

Reboot

While waiting on a ferry to Penang mainland,my mind start wondering;I started my page in Oct 2005 with just 2 posts.I was later too engaged with my job,my new personal life.It's now near October,a near 3 years for me to restart.My mind crashed and I don't have a proper disaster recovery plan.

root...

I'm terribly bored with my job.My previous superior called me on one hectic day.

Tbh: You still remember me?
krey: Yeah mate,what's the new idea you have this time.
Tbh: You go back to Ipoh every weekends?
Krey: Same routine man..
Tbh: How 'bout coming to Penang?

There goes KL,I'm now working in the Island.
My previous ground requires me to stretch my working will to 18/20 hours a day.I handled IT project coordination more than everyone else did.It's a big vendor company supporting big financial market player.We(me and my team) handled mid range machine, Unix to be specific.We support multiple flavor, you name it, we have Aix, Solaris, HP-UX, Tru-64, SCO to vast list of Open Source platforms.We did integration with zOS, OS400, Novell and Windoze.Those were the hard days.
Penang work is very very relax, 9 to 6 work time, small technical task mainly with open platforms, involved in some policies review(like you are the lawmaker) and overviewing some M$ Windoze issues.
Come to think of it, I really missed my old less sleep job.

I need to start..somewhere.

It's been ages since my last post,actually 2 posts make it to the public.I never put a counter and I never keep track of the viewer.
My blog started as experiment to find interest.I want to share,I got a lot to tell, but I'm not good at expressing my thought.
I like to share my surroundings, mostly my work, hopefully I can make it now.My blog had been stale for more than 2 years.
