Picture this scenario. You are teaching your 3-year-old about everyday objects. You use a flashcards, or iPad in these times of age. You show them a picture of a cat, a dog. They can relate what they are, because they have seen them. Then pictures of cars, buses, yes they know. You play sounds of […]

Transgendered Life
Posted: 28th August 2011 by Jacky Yong in Current AffairsTags: gay, lesbian, malaysia, transgender, transsexual
It’s sad, it’s really sad. People are rejecting transsexuals everywhere! In recent years we have seen some really interesting developments about these transsexuals, some are good, but mostly bad. New York has finally legalized same sex marriage, although it is not the first city / country to do so. Pakistan is considering to legalize the third sex. […]

This is something interesting ….. something popped out onto my browser this morning without me realizing. I thought it was a damn spam, but it turns out it was P1! It says that my limit has been breached and I should consider paying a small amount to increase the limit! I’d say that this is […]
Broadband your life!

Unifi has come to my area! YES! Despite calls to boycott its service, I have made my own research and have decided that Unifi is the right broadband service for me. My journey in getting myself wired to the internet harks back to the days of Jaring and TM dialup. For those of you old […]
It happens right here in our very own Bolehland. Believe it or not, Malaysia has the WORSE broadband infrastructure in the world. 5 years ago, 1 Mbit worth of promised speed cost RM88 per month, now it’s still RM88 per month, with only a free modem! WTF?? And don’t get me started about the term […]
Isn’t it ironic?
Posted: 5th October 2010 by Jacky Yong in Current Affairs, Silly meTags: Nokia, phone, Sony Ericcson
When the days are younger, we were much more innocent. Both Erynn and I both uses dumb phones, i.e. monochrome screens, mono channel audio ring tone (you can actually compose songs on them, remember?). No MMS, no fancy mancy touch screens. Then we bought colour phones, the legendary Sony Ericsson K700i for her and a […]
Entry of a dying patient
Posted: 11th August 2010 by Jacky Yong in Current AffairsTags: Bald4Good, Hospis
Chew (not his real name) has been coughing and wheezing more and more heavily. Each time he coughs, blood comes out. At first he thought nothing of it. But the bloodly came more frequent and his breathing becomes heavy and erratic. His job as a crane operator suffered as a result. One day while having […]
Fucking is a place in Austria!
Posted: 24th July 2010 by Jacky Yong in Current AffairsTags: fucking, weird place names
OMG!!! I can’t believe this is true! There really is a place called Fucking in the world! It’s a small town located in Austria near the eastern border with German. It was already in existence 800 years ago. So you can really forgive the townsfolk when they resist the idea of changing the name to something more […]
My nightmare begins

I have been warned for many many times before this. I have already prepared myself mentally to begin to accept this inevitable consequences. You see, I have now changed job, since 1st July. I am no longer working in Cyberjaya, and I loved the place! (The town, NOT the workplace) Now my new company is […]
I support Ong Tee Keat!

I am so happy when I saw the news today. Chew Mei Fen got the boot from the MCA council! PADAN DIA PUNYA MUKA!! I fully support this move. Her recent spat with Ong shows that she is no longer in-sync with the party’s objective. Anyone who is either with Ong, or against Ong. Yeah, […]
