My Internet Trade Secrets

Yay! Now I have another soap drama to keep up with and it's yet another German drama which has an ongoing story compared to the last one which has stopped. See, the thing about such soap dramas is that they have few storylines within one drama itself but onlie one or two is worth watching..heh. And these are usually the more popular ones which fans of the show usually upload into popular websites such as youtube, dailymotion and others. How I come across such shows is either by chance or when Im surfing around fan sites or blogging sites, they will talk about them and post up pictures or videos of them and I just do my own searching if I want to see more of them.

Currently, Im waiting for this independent film to be released onto vcd and then hoping for people to upload the vcd files into a torrent website. From this website, I will then be able to download these torrent files onto my own PC for my own viewing pleasure. It's like ripping songs from a CD and then uploading these songs onto the websites where people can download even though nowadays, if you want to download, you have to pay at least one US dollar. But hey, internet is not just good for surfing for information, if you know how to use it properly, there are loads of open source files created by fellow internet users for people like you and I. How I find out about such open source files other than searching for it via internet, is to visit people's websites where there are links for you to follow through or by reading up on my weekly reads such as Digital Life.

See, I dont mind telling people some trade secrets but it's just that I dont like to tell all coz I think it limits people into not finding out more coz like I said, there are so many things out there on the net that can be explored. And, also coz I took some time to find the things that I want and it's not really easy for me to tell people just like that and it's like instantly 'bingo!' to them. But Im not that selfish so once in awhile, I may tell you how I do my stuffs though at times, it's a little bit lengthy which may put people off like how I manage to get free ringtones or themes for my handphone or even download songs for free.

You see, it's like this. You want free stuffs...you dont always get it free...with a snap of the fingers. When I tell people how I got my ringtones free or download music for free, they're like..'huh? so complicated ah?' and of course I expected such reactions. It's like going via the backway which can be a little bit more difficult to walk through coz not everyone goes that way. In Malay terms, it is 'pandai pandai sendiri..'. Partly coz of this difficulty, it's not always I change handphone themes or change my ringtones..and I meant the shorter ones..not the usual ringtones which people used their mp3 with that play from start to mid of the song as long as they dont answer their damn phone or read their damn message.

Talking about my German Soap drama, I found him:















Jo Weil...or in other words..Rahayu's German Lover


Now that Ronnie is yet again in the bottom 3, for the bloody fifth time, and that he's sustaining coz he's a fan fav (how do you explain his survival when put up against someone in the bottom three once..and was voted out instead of him?), at least if he goes out this time, I got someone else to put up under 'My Guy of the Moment' slot..heh. I have think ahead what!

Fortunately, Jo was born in 1977 so me liking him will not make yours truly a paedophile compared to Ronnie who was born in..er..later years than me. Go Jo!

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Not Gone from Good

Life hasn't been good lately especially in the last two weeks. The latest news is that it seems that almost everyone has an increase in their pay due to changes in the civil servant wage scale and very unfortunately, my group didn't get it. So my boss, whose post is that of a manager and the operations manager, have quite a significant salary rise.  I heard she got a 10% pay rise. 10%!!! look, even the attendants got a pay rise. What we got? nada! zilch! Why? Because apparently our salary is of a competitive range. Sigh, such is the unfairness of life. I'm already struggling as it is and then apparently now, the rich has become richer. The poor remains nothing but a destitute mess. So I guess the only chance for a pay rise is for me to be promoted and though I do not know how much pay rise will that be, at least it is going to be slightly better. The problem is that I have no clue when I will get promoted. I am not one of those people with many super ideas that will great...
