Hi, Again!
Just got a pair of Dahon Speed D7s for myself and the gf on Saturday.
I have been wanting to get a folding bike since I first read about it on Mr. Brown's blog a few years ago. At the time, I was still studying in Malaysia, and buying a bike did not seem to be a good idea (for safety reasons). So I did not really have a serious thought of buying one.
Having since moved to Singapore and started working here, I again entertained the idea of buying a folding bike. However, it was only recently that I began browsing and reading cycling and bike related blogs, forums and Facebook pages.
I narrowed down my choices to these 3 models: Dahon Speed D7, Dahon Mu P8 and a Brompton M6R (Least expensive to Bloody Expensive).

Comparison of Dahon vs Brompton, folded.
Notice how in their folded states, the Brompton is more compactly folded. To be fair, the Brompton's wheel is 16" while the Dahon is 20".
I really fell in love with the Brompton for its classic look, the compact fold and that ingenious idea of being able to roll it when folded!!! However, the Brompton costs 4 times as much as the Speed D7.
So I decided I really wanted the Brompton, but for the time being I would get the Speed D7 first so that I could start cycling. Then I would save up for the Brompton!
I hope to blog about my cycling adventures and share photos from my rides regularly, if time permits.
For starter, here's a photo of my Speed D7 (fitted with Brookes saddle) taken today during my ride to Bedok Reservoir Park.

Looking forward
There are a few things on my list that I'm looking forward to. Just thinking about them excites me.
1. Graduation in Sept.
This one definitely has to top the list. I'm finally done away with assignments and exams, at least for now lah.
2. Snow Leopard release in Sept.
Who doesn't get excited over the US$29 upgrade?
3. Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol release in Sept
I read The Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons so I'm definitely going to buy The Lost Symbol to find out what Robert Langdon is up to this time.
4. Infinity Ward's Call Of Duty 6 or Modern Warfare 2 release in Nov.
I saw the gameplay trailer on YouTube the other day... so I'm pretty stoked at what I saw...
*Also looking forward to submitting documents to process my LPR application, and then having my LPR application approved and finally landing that desired job.*

Since my last blog entry...
I've abandoned this space for long enough. Many things have happened since my last entry.
The last entry was written five days before my final exam, so since that entry, I:
1) sat for my final exam.
2) came out fucking worried that I might flunk it again.
3) bought the 10-22mm lens that I always wanted.
4) went on short vacation to the island of Penang with the missus.
5) from Penang we went on a one-day trip to nearby Langkawi island. Hired a car and drove around the island.
6) returned to Sunway and began worrying about my exam result thereafter days and nights. lol.
7) went to Genting Highlands, twice. Once with my auntie and her family, and another occasion with the usual suspects: Felix, Dody and Ivan. Won rm 200 in the beginning but quickly in a span of only 2 hours, lost all the winnings plus rm 300 of my own money. fuck!!
8) killing zombies, monsters and witches on a daily basis at a nearby cybercafe with friends.
9) resumed playing GTA IV (as of typing this, I've only have one more mission before i beat the game).
10) fucking jubilated when result was released. I passed and i'm gonna graduate this Sept.
11) visited the missus in Singapore and met up with a couple of friends during my stay.
I think I've covered most things that had happened to the best that I could remember.

Getting a new 'cat' this September
So I stayed up at 1 a.m on Tuesday waiting for the WWDC'09 to begin. I was really, really hoping for some juicy Apple news.
To me, the WWDC'09 delivered both excitements and disappointment.
First the excitements.
1) Apple's brand new OS dubbed the Snow Leopard. Offers 64-bit computing and lots of "refinements". But, little or no changes to the UI at all. Best thing about the new OS? Upgrade will only cost US$29!!! Releasing in September.
2) Brand new iPhone 3G S (Speed). Looks good. But am not especially excited because I'm not an iPhone user. The apps showcased during the keynote was fantastic though. I was actually hoping that the new iPhone would sport a matte back instead of shiny one, and of course a 'glowing Apple logo' at the back. Apparently, Apple still wants to retain the original iPhone 3G look.
Now the BIG disappointment:
Apple decided that the 13" MacBook Unibody will now be called 13" MacBook Pro. The price will be cheaper and of course it will have higher specs, too.
WTF! This is so unfair. I just bought mine 6 months ago for fuck's sake. Even worse, I bought mine at a time when the Rupiah was weak, at RM1 = IDR3340. Now it's strengthening to RM1= IDR28XX.
So not only has the 13" MacBook unibody been renamed to MacBook Pro, it has better specs and costs much less.

Oh well, life's like that. But I had to rant.

Revenge's coming.
When Transformers first came out, I think the majority liked Bumblebee more than the rest of the robots. I know I did.
Now that the sequel, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, is coming out very soon, the internet is rampant with pictures of scenes from the movie, robots and cars that will appear in the movie and lastly the toys!
Everyone, say hello to Sideswipe,
Credit: Jalopnik
I think the toy is so gonna sell well, if not better than Bumblebee.
Of course if you talk about Transformers you must not forget the very hot Megan Fox.
I'm sure you will remember her from a scene in the first movie where her body bent over Sam's car hood.
I think Michael Bay is paying homage to that scene in the next movie with this image:

Windows 7, up and running.
I'm test-driving Windows 7 RC1 on my MacBook now.
At first I was torn between having to choose to install it Boot Camp-style or Virtual Machine-style.
I just got the Win7 iso a few days ago from my friend. And I read that if you want to install it via Boot Camp, you have to burn the iso into a DVD so that it can run as installation CD. While I also read that it is possible to run the iso from USB sticks, it requires technical expertise which I do not possess.
So in the end, I chose to install Windows 7 via Parallel Desktop (You need to upgrade to recent versions so that Parallel Desktop can identify that you are trying to install Windows 7 (Experimental).
For a complete installation walk-through, I read this.
It took me roughly 45 mins to have Windows 7 up and running, with all drivers properly installed.
If you haven't got Windows 7, download is still available till July 2009.
There is a one-year time frame before the RC1 copy of Windows 7 expires on June 1 2010. However, starting March 1 2010, your computer will shutdown every two hours. This, I presume is to remind you to get the commercial copy which should be out in stores by then.
