The One with The Crazy Pain in The Ass

RVL’s Pick:

Stop-Loss (Ryan Philippe, Channing Tatum) – Box Office Movie



Safety checks are just that, SAFETY CHECKS!! I don’t care if the materials are not being used, Get it checked and maintained when the schedule says so (it not like you paying for it). If anything happens it’s my ass on the line and you’d already be pushing up daisies while I sift through puddles of radioactive waste.

PITAs will always find other PITAs, I hope you two end-up killing each other.

The One with The Dragons

Hairvl’s Pick:

Disturbia – Rihanna

Sorry sorry – Rooney

Taken of Ms V’s entry…


{ “and create a few months of my life for me. This could be very useful for future reference in which case if I ever do get down to writing my memoirs at the ripe age of 75, one of your excerpts may make an entry into my bestselling autobiography due to confusion of old age on my part. So make the past few months of my life interesting and dramatic, make sure the storyline has never entered a script for a currently popular series (if I do get confused and use your interpretation of the last few months of my life in the book I could be accused of plagiarism) but just don't make it raunchy.”

Rvl, I mean you.” }




Ha! =)



A story for Bunny…..



Jessica says:

We’re just from different planes you and I

Jessica says:

That’s all

Jessica says:

I belong in the realm with dragons (and Shakespeare of course)

Jessica says:

Where we'd sit down at the local tavern and make jokes about Aphrodite who does it behind the Inn

RVL says:

I was in that plane.. but at a time long before u..

RVL says:

I’ve moved to crossing worlds in the instance of a breath.. Where stars now have bored children and their children, children

Jessica says:

This plane? I’ve never seen you here though. And the elders never speak of you!

Jessica says:

Ah see now you’re in my plane

Jessica says:

Embrace the whimsical and nonsensical!

RVL says:

I was never an elder... your elders shall not have heard of me for their elders were mere children at my time..

Jessica says:

i need to pee

The One with The Blaze

RVL’s Pick:

Inside of you – Infant Sorrow

Fucking Boyfriend – The Bird and The Bee

It’s another rainy morning at work today, I counted myself lucky that I got to work before it started. Arriving to work with soaking pants and underwear is not a joke, and anyone in the office making fun of me would have their thumbs cut off. I guess the season’s started, mental note to self about not riding to work for awhile.

On the way to the towers, I noticed something in my view which is out of the norm…


It was raining considerably heavy and yet the flames were 5 storeys high..

I wonder what happened.

The One with The Blue Collar

RVL’s Pick:

Da Funk – Daft Punk

STFU – Mouth to Mouth RMX



A wise old friend of mine once said to me, “Do not talk down to anyone just because their younger than you, give them equal respect for they may grow up to be your boss or at the very least your son’s boss”. Well I witness this very situation occurring today at the office. Mr. T whom although was quite respected in his field of work, was quite an arrogant and rude man. I remember various conversations with him (as he was a customer at the same mechanic of which I regular) and usually more often than most, those conversation lead to him making a mockery of people’s opinion whom he figured to be too young and inexperienced.

I even remember an argument we had when I was at the shop, concerning sportcars & racing (which is my personal department by the way!) and that said argument ended with him giving me and earful of junk, thinking that he knows better. No, you twat! Go-karts don’t have traction control and A.B.S! What retarded dimension did you come from to have to come up with that? Things got plenty sour after that fine day and we haven’t met since.

Well Mr. T stopped by the office today for a meeting with the new stakeholders of the company he currently works for. Its his 1st time meeting the new owners and boy was he surprised when I entered the conference room. After we exchanged pleasantries, while waiting for the other investors, he dully asked me why I was there in the meet. I kindly asked him to look at the meeting agenda, I’m pretty sure he’d perform mental hari-kari while crapping his pants after seeing the stakeholders list and finding my name 3rd from the top.

Lesson learned…

The One with The Fuelishness

Hairvl’s Pick:

Again – John Legend

Ascension To Virginity – Dave Gursin





A story for Geraldine,

Jen met a girl at palette palate on a Sunday, she introduce herself as Jason. She was a lawyer going off to UK to have fun and explore the world. Their time was short but it was meaningful. They talked of lawyers and music and iPods and friends. They parted ways not knowing whether they’d see each other again….

You will be missed GKL….

My recent encounter with the Dragon lady somehow managed to sprout some interesting topics concerning the world today. She asked me (thinking that since I’m in somewhat similar industry) whether I thought fuel prices would ever drop again. I told her that she and everybody else can dream on. I don’t care which politician says they can reduce prices, it’s all a bunch of bullshit. The age of cheap fuel is ending, what they need to understand is that the rise is a global issue and not just locally. Politicians are being unrealistic in their figures because they want votes.

Dragon lady posed another question: “What is the most economical car that I can suggest to her then?” This was another irrelevant question in my thoughts. I told her honestly there are none. It’s a matter of driving attitude, but if I’d have to choose then I would pick the Toyota Vios. So in keeping with the spirit of giving, I give you RVL’s fuel saving tips:

  1. Check your tire pressure and keep it at an optimum level.
  2. Go for frequent tire alignment and balancing.
  3. Less weight = better mileage, stop lugging around excess weight in the car such as golf bags, clothes, shoes, etc.
  4. Less drag = better mileage, aftermarket spoilers, canards, etc adds drag and weight to the car with no additional downforce. (even a Ferrari 360 Modena only starts building downforce at 120kph so forget those toys)
  5. Refrain from making hard accelerations, Gunning the engine uses a ton more fuel, so coast up to speed and stay at speed. (even in the corners if you can)
  6. Refrain from hard braking, heavy braking means the engine work harder to power the pumps and the engine also takes a longer time to get back up to speed due to lack of momentum. Perform engine braking whenever u can.
  7. In dense traffic, keep a considerable distance from the car in front. This actually means you don’t have to brake every time he/she slows down. Coast the car to slow down and go gently on the brakes.
  8. In jams, (auto cars only) use your left foot. Switching between paddles takes up more time and more effort to slow and build momentum. Balance throttle with left foot braking and you’ll find that you won’t be leaving gaps for other vehicles to cut-in.
  9. On motorways or highways, (advance drivers only) whenever you see a fast-moving large vehicle like vans or mpvs, follow closely to them to a point of almost tailgating. This is what racing drivers call getting into someone’s slipstream, where the vehicle in front reduces the drag and wind resistance on your car thus less throttle input needed to move forward.
  10. Smooth is fast and economical, think ahead of how other vehicle would react and ensure you have counter measures. This means less effort for heaving braking or hard acceleration.
  11. Plan your journey, unscheduled or unnecessary stops cost fuel. A modern engine uses less fuel idling for 10 mins as compared to starting it up again.
  12. Proper maintenance of engine and moving parts ensure optimum performance and economy.
  13. Driving with the A/C on = 20% less economy, thus whenever possible drive without it. (drivers can also choose to temporarily turn off the A/C when accelerating hard)
  14. Diving with the window down also reduces economy but not as much as using the A/C. At slower speeds, having the window down has no effect on economy.
  15. Fill up during cold weather rather than in hot humid conditions and always fill your car to the brim. (Use up the entire tank too) fuel is more dense when its cold thus you’re getting more for your buck. (I recommend Shell)

That’s all I can remember of the top of my head for now and no I am not an economical driver but dammit my tips work. This is my 1st community service in a long time (I think).

The One with The Family Tree

Hairvl’s Pick:

Coin Operated Boy (Crom & St Rmx) – Nightlife United

Control (Weird Science Rmx) – Steve Aoki

Growing up throughout my life I’ve been a terrible menace to society, I grew with very little care or regard for my surroundings and couldn’t care less on how my actions impacted others. Picture if you will Dennis the Menace and you’ll get an idea on what I was like growing up, my parents and grandparents would confirm it blindly. I have a permanent spot in my family line as the young rascal who’s always up to something. They accepted it nonetheless, I wasn’t evil or normal naughty like most kids just extremely mischievous and my pranks were somewhat ahead of its time. My dad refers it as “genius vandalism”.

I was always the favourite with my grandfather. I practically grew up half of my life with my grandparents as a socializing “kampung boy”, the other half as an introverted yet cunning city boy. Yes I climb trees and picked durian and chased lizards while other kids my age spent their time with video games, football, and going for extra classes. Recently my grandfather had his worst stroke ever, I sense his time in this world is drawing to an end. Visiting him from time to time made miss my childhood spent with him. i've already lost the other one another lifetime ago.

After the incident, his brain couldn’t remember anyone of the family but as soon as I entered the ward, he smiled and called out to me… *grins*. How could he forget his naughty little grandson? How could he forget the small boy who replaced the eggs in the entire fridge with garden snails? How could he not remember the kid whom resorted to stealing his shotgun and shooting the sky (I made blanks, don’t ask me how) to counter the neighborhood kids’ fireworks?

I grew up without much of a father figure and I know many of my friends currently can vouch the same line. I’ve looked up upon my grandfathers and uncle for guidance after my mother. They taught me life lessons. They taught me courage, endurance and patience. Everything else, I developed myself by not being commercialized. None of them would truly know how much I value and appreciate them, none of them would see this post in their lifetime. But my gratitude is second to none.

I hate f*****g lorry drivers! >.<

i swear to god if i see u again i'll put an axe through your windscreen!!

On another note,

Sorry for the delay but my visit to the island did bore some unexpected fruits. And here’s proof that this country has its gems:











It was an absolute steal, I didn’t even have to think about it.

Automatic – Utada Hikaru

Empty Streets – Kaskade

















When u have retard friends like me, the conversation usually drift far beyond what is generally accepted as deviating from the subject. How can a fishing plan confirmation lead to this?

Mr. Skinny says:

Williamson-Dickie, more commonly referred to as Dickies, is an American company headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas that specializes in the manufacturing and sales of durable work-related clothing and other accessories, including back packs, steel-toe boots, and belts.

Today Williamson-Dickie began as a bib global company, Dickie has developed to be the number one producer of work apparel worldwide.

RVL says:

someone just remarked to me tht they bought dickies..

Mr. Skinny says:

thank you wikipedia

RVL says:

hmmm thts a brand.. i tot dickies were the clothing type.. all this while i was thinking pants suspenders

Mr. Skinny says:

Spotted dick is a traditional English steamed suet pudding containing dried fruit (usually currants), commonly served with either custard or butter and brown sugar. Spotted refers to the dried fruit (which resemble spots) and Dick may be a contraction/corruption of the word pudding (from the last syllable) or possibly a corruption of the word dough.

Mr. Skinny says:

It is possibly conjugated originally from sticky pudding to dicky pudding to dicky to dick and finally spotted dick as in pudding with raisins.[citation needed] It is also known as spotted dog, plum duff, steamed dicky, figgy dowdy, dotted lloyd, packphour's lament, dicky widmark as well as plum bolster, dick in a box, Spotted Richard and, occasionally, Dickie Burton after the famous actor.

Mr. Skinny says:

i think it tastes like our malaysian cheap ass fruit cake that u find in cardboard boxes sold in shopping malls

Mr. Skinny says:

Mr. Skinny says:

Mr. Skinny says:

Mr. Skinny says:

RVL says:

RVL says:

Mr. Skinny says:

Answer: why? why would u ask a retard to screw in light bulbs? do it yourself!

Meet the perfect Hollywood couple. I’d have to admit I like the movie a lot. Quite significantly enough, to make me want to watch it again really soon. Even Dark Knight didn’t give such impression. Keep an eye out for M-O or mop as we call him.

How peoples’ lives drifted in such different and separate ways is absolutely mind boggling to me. There has never been a single plan created by man, machine, animal or (dare I say) god has gone out the way each wanted it to be. It amazes me the paths we’ve all walked on and as I compare the present as opposed to the original plans we had back in the past I can’t help chuckle at seeing how thing eventually turned out.

Life is never predictable, it is just a string of lotteries whereby u get chances of making yourself luckier than most. But sometimes, someone feels they should get more or they fuck-up and end up on the hot end of a smoking barrel.

Cowards take their life when the pressure’s too great, the brave strive for change, the patient endures, the lazy accepts their fate.

Is this how you’d pictured it when you said goodbye?



Konichiwa, Sayonara,

Thanks for stopping by!

The One with Project Target 5010

Hairvl’s Pick:

Empty Streets – Kaskade

The target: 50000 barrels by 2010

The location: off the coastal shores of Labuan & Miri

The Giants: Shell & Asetanian

The Major Players: Schlumberger, Wintermar & DMSB

The Duration: 12months (+30months)

If this goes well it could spell major profit for us, a few extra pocket money for yours truly and my absence from the blogosphere, facebook and any form of telephone contact for a full 5 weeks. My required presence to be offshore is definitely a bitch, yes I am a virgin this will be my 1st run on the mighty seas which have given to us as much as it has taken.

It was a strange and hectic visit, the whole place seems like a lazy, slow & forgotten capital. Much like those strange space ports you’d see on TV with various alien cultures going about their business. The most common trade? What else? Alcohol, accompanied by nicotine sticks at amazingly affordable prices. But unlike the space ports you see on TV this place is deader than my last pair of skate shoes. Doing nothing on the site out at sea promises a more interesting venture than spending a month on land.


On another note, it’s never a good thing when you come back and the only news you seem to get is bad ones. Many of them don’t even know I’m back yet but many don’t even know I was gone. I’m not looking forward to TAG this Friday, maybe a spot of fishing and golf instead. Oh and yes some riding, that’ll make me feel better.


I’m not ready to open up. I’m not so willing to give in to the push and shove I’ve been getting. Lets not catch up or make plans, it never goes well. We’ll all meet again after a few years when I can say it to your faces that I don’t give a f***. Call this my quarter-life crisis and I f*****g love it.



The boys have truly grown up now, we came back to the scene of our crimes after nearly 3 years now and we couldn’t bring ourselves to do it again. I hate aging and knowing better, life’s more fun when it’s carefree and your absolutely clueless about things.
