A rifle... I thought

Today I took out a vintage to clean it a little, it was made by brass and corroded badly. It's been exposed to sun and rains for years. By the way this thing is older than me!!

I polished it to make it as new as possible but then my hand got tired after an hour so thats it for today.

Jabatan Bomba Pulau Pinang or instruction how to use this thing????

I used think that I got a rifle at home it really looks like one to me. Like the type that you need to put some gun powder in first then the bullet and compress it using a stick and wait for it to explode. If you watch Police Story 1 by Jackie Chan, you will know how it looks like.

Then on one day when my hand got itchy and curious. I took it out to play. My dad warned us not to play with it as it is dangerous. The more he say like that, the more curious I am.

It was covered by a bamboo for protection for the rifle but it only covers the body and left the head expose.

Just when im about to touch it, my mom found out and I got scolded badly for that. Then after that, I never touch it again untill when im big enough to check on it AGAIN.

What I found is, it's actually not a rifle but a WATER GUN!!! In older days where there is no fire trucks to pump the water up to put out the fire in buildings. They use this equipment.

And I got cheated for years by my mom saying that it is a rifle that used during the WWII

I guess that's the way the parents do when they want their children to stay away from something DANGEROUS

As tight as it was...

It was tight when its still new. But after been using for quite some time...it got loose. Not as tight as it was.

I'd finally fixed it after for few months having a wobbly laptop screen. It even wobbles when wind blows. Thats how bad was it. It feels like its going to break anytime soon!!

So I dismantle the laptop to find the cause of the wobbly screen. I thought the hinge broke but luckily it wasn't. The screws only need to be tightened.

Now the screen is as tight as virgin..I like it!!

Sunday

Is been a long time since the last time I detailed my car. Brazillian carnauba wax, syntethic wax, swirl marks remover, microfiber cloth and clay bar. These are the items that got me busy during the weekends. I like my car in a showroom condition. There is no words can describe my feeling of looking at my car in shines after all the hard work. Is wonderful.

I had stop doing that. After I sold off my car.

Until today. On a sunny Sunday which is my favourate condition to wash my car. Though it's my company car but I cant stand it anymore with the bad condition.

Leaking oil, incomplete combustion, signal, brake and reverse indicators blown, handbrake not working, paint job that is almost as rough as the tarmac. This is how bad the condition of the car.

So I washed the car, clean the rims, vacuum the interior, change all the blown indicator lights, adjust the gas pedal free play, fix the irritating squeking brake pedal, service the carburetor and radiator.

I like to get my hands dirty.

After all the hard works took me about 4 hours. The weather starting to rain. Why every time i washes the car it rains just right after i wash the car. What a day.

Paula Tsui

Hmmm.. There is no one in the office. All I can hear is the cars on the highway passing by.

What a cooling Saturday. It wouldn't be perfect with out a song so I browse my phone to find a suitable song for the moment.

It started smoothly. Listening to the lyrics and beautiful melody. Then it stopped!! ahhhhhhhh..then only I remember it was the shorten version for the ring tone.

Never mind, with the advance technology we got internet connection and YouTube.

We will never see the newer generation singer can sing like her with so much noise and electronics.

The lyrics are meaningful though I can only understand part of it. Enjoy the video...

Something new

I remembered the first time I use a software called Adobe Photoshop. It was the time where Windows 95 were the most hot Operating System. Bro taught me how to use it though it was hard but since im interested. I played with it.

Time after time.

I mastered it. Not really master but I know how it works. How it can it edit the pictures into something more interesting.

Then i learn Flash. It was hard due to the programming langguage. I gave up. The most i can do is make a boll rolling or a box transforming into a rounded shape. That's it. Nothing more than that.

Now, for the last few weeks, i got interested on what the designer doing. The 3Ds Max

So i played with it whenever im free.

Yeah..the mattress look too square. I know. But for a first timer. Consider ok lahh. I only started learning about 3 weeks only weihh!

I added some lightings under the bed and side tables and wood flooring too.

Should practise more..now i think it looks terrible..ISHHH!!!
