What is spyware?

I didn't aware that some jobless people would eventually spying on your computer, wanting to know every single little details you do inside the net...mind you but this is what happened to me when out of nowhere, I was browsing and reading the Sun, enjoying "American Idols" on telly and a minute later, going back to my screen, I was greeted with a warning message that IE has countered a problem so its needed to be shut. I opened a new browser where another message prompted. I decided to reboot my computer..only to be greeted with the same manner..I rebooted it for countless times and the results were fruitless. I was desperate to get the computer back to normal as it is not my computer, it's my brother and he would kill me for all I know!

I nearly cried in agony and Ray helped me..we tried to uninstall it and we couldn't find a way..I downloaded few softwares and couldn't get IE to be uninstalled. Frustated was filling me in. I wanted to cry so badly...I was tired and sweating! Even some friends message me on msn hoping we could chat and I just shrugged them off..sorry guys...Then came this software that Ray gave it to me...to check the spywares and truly by 9pm, I already finished scanning the whole computer and I was just too tired to open my eyes. Kept yawning and at some point I fell asleep in front of my computer..I just gave up..I clicked a disbale funtion on one of the file and shut down the computer. I hoped my brother didn't touch his computer, not until the problem was fixed.

And this morning, after my brother left for work, I dashed my way to the computer room and eager to struggle one more time. And *Whomp*, like a magic, the IE worked! And the problem is fixed...huge relief and suddenly I saw the world brighter than yesterday...both hands of mine were bruised with blue marks..the result of banging on the computer desk hehehe...

Thanks Ray!

P.S:I am relying on Mozilla nowdays...

Chingy Festival

As dumb as I must have admit to myself, I didn't know that the celebration of Chinese New Year would go on as far as 2 weeks! I just found out last weekend when I went to meet my mom's friend to collect my stuffs. I over-heard there was a "Chingy Festival" that day. I was quite surprised as I thought the festival had long been over (approximately the week before). And here, in the townhouse I am staying..there they held a Chinese New Year BBQ Party by the pool plus the lucky draw that came with it (my brother actually won a hand-mixer but he was impatient to wait and he left without knowing it..what a shame) on the very same day as the Chingy Festival.

I went to the city by train. I took my nanny along. Soon, I was greeted with a very heavy and packed crowds! We couldn't barely even move. When we got there, the festival had already started. My nanny was eager to see but I wasn't..whilst I left her to watch the festival, I went down to my business..that was shopping ;)...

Finally, I found out where "Paul & Joe" outlet was! I was over the moon when I saw that they were selling more than just cosmetic brands...they offer clothing items that are so nice and feminime...lost of laces dominated them ;) The prices are way way so expensiveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!! In the end, I bought a facepowder 35 which the sales said it was very popular (I wanted to get the peach actually but I just listened to her!).

Then I called up my mom's friend, asking if it's alright to meet her a bit later 'cos my nanny was catching up with the festival...she invited me and my nanny to her hotel whereas the view was better from up there plus the air-con (the weather has not been co-orperated lately!). So I took my nanny there and met my mom's friend and her daughter. I had had a glass of orange juice and there I was...sitting and watching the festival unfolded before me and doing a bit of chatting as well. We spoke about their up-coming trips plus mine plus about me worrying a lot of my visa (This fear me the most lately..I hate this..waiting without knowing what will happen and the drama still a week away..I already missed a lot of my sleeping time..so bad! I do hope that I will not have any trouble with my visa later on..oh guys please keep your fingers cross for me and pray that everything will work out! I really need all the lucks!). I stayed until around 11pm and I got home around 12.30am...and we took Spanky for a little walk after.

5:13 AM

Now exatcly an early hour in the morning and here I am sitting in front of my computer, having another sleepless night *damn*. I was certain that I would get a nice sleep last night but I found out, laying in my bed, staring at my ceiling and I just couldn't get my eyes closed :(

I was thinking about so many things, things that have been happening these past weeks, good and bad. Things that makes me feeling uncomfortable, things that makes me go blush whenever I think about 'em, things that makes me feel a sudden rush, things that makes me go excited and things that makes me wanting everything else to stop. I flipped through my minds, like searching chapters that are missing and making sure that everything is there. These past weeks haven't been that bad at all except for one thing that I don't want to discuss aloud, I just want to keep it deep down in my heart and trying to break free from it.

I decided to stop my reverie and do stuffs that would pass the time. I decided to log on to friendster only to be met by a dissapointment that friendster was temporarily down for maintainance. I grabbed my magazine and decided to settle with it but I just couldn't. My minds are not at ease and peace.

I was being mean two forthnights ago, yesterday and today, not intenttionaly..why would I critize people the way I did today? I didn't have my damned rights. I am feeling upset now, willing to apologize. I should just keep my mouth perfectly shut like usually I do. Maybe I couldn't get my sleep 'cos I have been evaluating myself. Maybe I couldn't sleep because I haven't uttered my apologies to these people. Maybe I couldn't sleep because I feel guilty after all this time. What have I done to add the damage to everything? Why can't I just be perfectly normal, smilling young woman? I just don't understand myself sometime...I am just being a little nasty and that's very bad.

Now, it's 5:24 AM...I am still not sleepy, soon the sun will set and perhaps I will do a bit of jog and later I will try to get some sleep.

Valentine's Day

Oh I am having this silly bad hair day :(
My hair x-tension caused a lot of problems lately..it reforms those rasta hair-style..grossssssss....I have to untangle it one by one each day and it makes the scalp of my head ached and burnt :( Seriously, I should have thought twice before having them done...I wanna take them off but my hair is still damned short (I do feel they do not grow!)..arghhhh I wish I could just put on wig!

Yesterday was Valentine and nothing special happened...(on my reverie of the event last year)...went for dinner, there were 4 four of us..I thought it was a bit pathetic but now come to think of it, it wasn't that bad at all, in fact it was much better than this year.
Well anyway nevermind the Valentine, it is not one of the most important event in my life :)

I had completed reading another book and this one was utterly crap! Called "The Waitress"

..particulary I didn't really understand what this book was all about...now am hooked on another book by Judith, it is called "Perfect". 11 chapters have passed and I am already half way in love with this book!

Anyway there was grammy and I liked the performance by Alicia Keys and those who sang for Tsunami Aid (Across the Universe). Steve Tyler still ROCKS!

Constantine (The Movie) + I do I do

I guess sometime I just feel of doing nothing and laze around @ home, having a glass of cold water and drowning myself into my book. Currently reading : The Waitress and currently listening : J.Lo (Get Right). Then one of my friend asked me to have coffee with him, so I did. There I met his younger brother and his cousin. It was a bit akward but soon the ice broke and we joked around :) We talked about cars and mobile devices. Pretty fun, getting me up-to-date with the latest technologies and gadgets. And my cell phone rang, was my brother. We promised to see "Constantine" together so there you go, he told me to meet him by 6.30pm.



Personally, we got the corner seats and damn, those people who sat next to me were all couples and they snuggled around, making me grew uncomfy around this P-D-A things. As we waited for the movie to play (I never waited a movie to be on for so long, not until yesterday), I wanted to go to the loo (actually had been wanting it since I arrived at the cinema but too lazy to do so)...those couples were kinda pissed hehehehe...

So the movie started, a bit horrorish movie. Keanu looked handsome (as he always do!) and Rachel was on it (I didn't know that and I like her!). The movie was not that good, since I never read any of the comic books, it got me a bit confused with the name of all satans and devils there. I heard alright of Lucifer and Gabrielle but not the others. The hell that they potrayed throughout the movie was truly hellish and got me a creep! Seriously I used to be not that bothered about going to heaven or hell but now I do! I never want to be there for all I know with all those scary creatures or perhaps they were the devils and satans. The Lucifer and Gabrielle things made some confusion. I didn't remember of Gabrielle being so bad but she was bad in the movie and Lucifer was better. I had to ask around my cousins about them hehehe.

And today...I didn't do anything special except promising my friends for light dinner which we took @ Dome. I had had my Ice chocolate (the usual) with gelato. After dinner, we went shopping and I got this cute bag that has a picture of 4 golden retirevers on it! I loveeeee the bag except that it's a bit costly :( Then we went for movie...we wanted to catch "Racing Stripes" but we were 15 min late and the only movie that was left to watch was "I do I do". I didn't think it was a good movie @ first but after watching it, I kinda enjoyed it..so hillarious! hehehe... I like that character 'Jojo' and there was this handsome and good looking guy in the restaurant but he didn't play any major part, just a stand-by...what a shame! The hokkien languages they used, plus english plus mandarin..though I understand only english but yeah subtitle always help! And kinda learning a bit mandarin through the movie :)



There you go..now I am back home...it's been quite ages since the very last time I hit the club and I don't miss it, not even a bit..just a good sign for me :)

Constantine is so charming (not the movie)

Awwww the American Idol is getting better and better...and Constantine is definitely mah man! He can sing for sure! Though, I must agree, the dance part was a bit ridiculous but oh man his voice rocks! I like Mario too...his whole group qualified and they were simple the best group there for all I know. The most outstanding one! For the girls, still the same candidates whom I fancy...they are all good...

What did I do pratically today? Well just finished up reading my book, Mr.Maybe by Jane Green.. was funny but the ending was just spot on. I didn't fancy the character, Libby, as she was being too pushy over things but Jules definitely a girl that everyone fancied about. She was not pompous and she was good in giving advices. I am going on to my 5th book, The Waitress by Melissa Nathan. The language is a bit too fancy, not to my liking but am trying to read it.

And Spanky was being so cute and naughty again, this time around he trashed the working room. He was taking a nap in that room and my nanny turned on the air-con. Apparently, due to the humid weather today, he wanted to spend as much time as possible inside the room. When he woke up, my nanny turned off the air-con and went upstairs to join me. Suddenly, Spanky catched up my nanny and he snatched one of my hamster doll and bit it. I said to my nanny that he might be pissed off. So, my nanny went down the room and oh my, he trashed it all square! He took one of my top from the hanger, screwed the plastic bag that I threw earlier and the wrapping paper as well, messed up the sleeping bag and snatched away my bro's shoes' wrapper. An entire mess I must say. Later on, when we took him for a walk, he went to places he never been and started to piss me off...he did all that in purpose to get me and my nanny mad!

Piss Off

Oh what a week it must had been! Firstly, my mom was here with her friends, one of them was to have a major operation (no idea what the disease was) and there was the daughter. Well I didn't hit it off with her in the beginning (ya know me, hardly talk to strangers) but after a while, I tried to get along with her and all that...managed to do so in her last 2 days here (feeling so bad seriously!) but oh my, what a bugger, I spent a lot of money whilst accompanying her for shopping (instead I shopped for myself! bad habittttttttt urgggggggggggh!). Then the operation succeded (though, she suffered a bit infection but nothing serious) and they went home last Sunday.

My dad is going back to Surabaya today. Feeling a slight regret and envy that my dad will spend Chinese new year with everybody at home :( I wish I had gone back last month but anyway nothing to regret of, perhaps will have some fun here.

And I was a bit pissed off yesterday...'cos of this dialpad maker! I wanted to experiment with and I couldn't recover back my original dialpad! Urghhhh I need to hard reset the whole PDA which means I will lose everything I have inside. Thanks to my obsession over Orli! (I was too obsessed to have his picture on my dialpad and did try it and now slightly piss that I can't have my original screen back!).

My mom informed me that there are so many keen buyers on Starsky..Please, that li'l baby of mine is not up for sale for goodness' sake! I love him so much and there is no way I can see him to be sold off to someone whom might neglect him in the end...

To conclude the whole thing, I am drolling over my new jeans...so sexy and so nice and slinky! I cannot wait to put them on! and well Happy Chinese New Year to anyone who celebrates it (YEAH getting fat money I suppose --> the privilege of being unmarried for the time being!) and will be invited for a dinner by my uncles and aunties tonight @ OUB level 60 -> Si Chuan Dong Hua Resto..
feeling glad that this 'bad luck' thing in 2004 is finally over...it's rooster year!

P.S: I missed "Desperate Housewives" last night!
