Scarlet Fever

Liverpool lost to Charlton. Sigh..

But.. The Ferrari in the capable hands of Michael Schumacher won a thrilling race in Indianapolis, in a wet then dry then wet again race which saw Montoya lose the championship race. At least Kimi is still in it finishing second, but will need a minor miracle to secure his first drivers crown, as Schumi only needs one more point to become the most successful F1 Driver of all time!

Walking miles chasing a little white ball!

Just finished playing a round of golf! First time I played a round since 2001! It was fun. Wish I had a better tee off, otherwise I would have played to a much lower score. I beat Freddie though.. which was cool, since he plays all the time and is much more consistant.. hmm.. maybe it was the handicap (he gave me a stroke a hole except par 3s). Hahaha.. guess I will lose strokes the next time I play with him. Even managed ONE par! Not too bad considering I teed off like a idiot. Put it this way.. i was a fringe player, as in my ball ended up on the fringes of the course all the way.. Till next time.. FORE!!!

Objects of Lust

Not the regular curvy kind mind you, though it cannot be said that I do not like the feminine touches, like any red blooded man.

Just launched is the Apple Powerbook G4 15" Aluminiumbook! Ma-ma mia.. its fully loaded and I declare it my latest object of lust, right next to my desire to bed Rachel Weisz. Go check it out for yourselves at www.apple.com. Question is now what do I do with my former biggest-object-of-lust, my kinda aging Titanium Powerbook. Any takers out there?

Now, if Apple will only debut a new iPOD with built in recording before Christmas. Yum.

Monkeys off my Back

Had a presentation to do today. A pitch for an advertising campaign for a new housing development which I have been working all week on. Cannot really say if I will get the account or not as we were competing against 3 other agencies. Here is to hoping. Will be good for next years bottomline.

Also completed printing the KLSE Market Review document. This was a rather painful exercise taking too much time and to much blood and sweat and tears. To be honest, it is not something I relish doing again. Just a case of taking too long.

Looking forward to a great weekend.

Difficult Times

My son who has been back for the past 4 weeks will be going back to South Africa with his mother tomorrow night. He has grown and matured so much since he was last in KL a year ago. I will miss him dearly. I have not spent as much time as I would have liked to while he was in KL due to many reasons, some work, and others personal.

Let me tell you that it is extremely difficult to understand the goings on in my own heart (I cannot understand it either). On one hand, I would have liked to have spent every minute I could have with him. On the other hand, my heart breaks everytime he leaves, and this has caused me, to in a small way distance myself. It is a sad state of affairs. I know it is silly, but it is the way I feel. I cannot help it.

Benjamin is 6. He lives with his mother who is lives with her new mate in Johannesburg. To be honest, I am very glad that Ben has had this opportunity to live abroad, to learn and experience life otherwise alien to him if he was stuck here in KL. The tradeoff is that I do not get to see him very often. I missed his first bike ride, his first swim without his floaters and much more. It hurts to think that I missed these fatherly duties, but remain proud, as any father would, that he has grown. Kudos to Martin and Asha! He is trully a remarkable kid. Polite and well behaved. Eats all his vegetables to! Sigh.. how I will miss the little tyke.

The goodnews is; Asha plans to visit again during Christmas. I hope it all goes well and as planned.

I love him. And he will always remain in my heart.

HELLO GECKO

Heh heh... blog expert am I --- NOT!

Just Added Comments

Whats the point of just reading when you can post your comments. Its human nature afterall to have opinions. So, by all means, comment away! It will be great to hear from you.

Darn. Just tried watching the film. Guess what. Its a pay site! Not that I am totally adverse to paying or anything, but I have to be a citizen of the UK. And unfortunately, being a Mac user, unable to view the film anyway as I need to be on a WINTEL platform. Sigh.. To bad.

Whilst many potray me correctly or in-correctly as a tech savvy person, I am indeed not. I love toys and such, many of which are quite high tech. However, when it comes to things like this blog for instance, I am but a infant in a strange world. Luckily for me this blogging is quite easy.

Chui, my girlfriend, has just alerted me to http://www.thisisnotalovesong.co.uk/ an online film developed for the internet. Just watched the trailer, and to be honest, I haven't the faintest clue as to what the movie was all about. The production values are pretty decent however and the camera and editing work is very gritty. Pretty cool. Will probably spawn a thousand independant film makers to use this route to get their films aired and viewed no doubt. Some films will probably even be future Cairnes winners.

Will go download the whole movie soon and I shall be back with a full review.

Blogging? What's this? Why bother?

I have always wanted to keep a diary of the goings on in my life. Maybe this is the avenue I have been looking for. I guess doing so will keep friends and relatives far and near updated. Something I am desperately lousy at doing and hope I will be able to keep this up.
