Mokhster’s Bundle of Stuff

Friendster; what an idea, and what a revolution it has started in how we keep in touch with our friends and loved ones. Type friend network on any search engine today and you will get loads of links from "My Space" to Malaysia's own "Kawanster".

It's a craze that millions of people around the world have taken to ritualistically. From a need to keep in touch with every individual we've bumped into, comparing "friend list" to use as bragging rights against other peoples "friend list", to a need to fill any insecurity one might have by getting as many people on ones list just to feel part of something. Then of course you just have the guys out there who just want to get as many pretty girls on their list with this machonismo fantasy of boning them all.

On the other hand, if there are any girls out there who have a fantasy of boning guys on their friend networks, just pass me your contact number in the comment box.

ahem..ahem..Anyway....

On normal days I consider Friendster a distraction. ( cause whether we like to admit it or not their is a satisfaction one gets from being recognized and liked as a friend ) Opening Friendster every few days in hope that someone has left me a cool or warm testimonial is one of the main reasons I'm still on friendster.

But today is different. Days like today remind me what friendster is at it's core and purest form. I bumped into a friend yesterday that I've not seen in 6 years. He had friendster, I had friendster and with that a chain reaction has started that has resulted in me getting back with six other friends that I've not seen in years. Getting back with friends from the past is one of the simple joys in life.

Today friendster proved it's worth for all the office hours lost on waiting for my next big testimonial.

*grin*

and the great words of wisdom I've come across today is :

"Warning : Dates on calender are closer than they appear"

I will with closed eyes,
Imagine of her dark flowing hair,
Now a distant distraction veiled for the lords pleasure,
In darkness I shall morn,
In my dreams it shall flow free.

An article in a men’s health magazine said one ways to spice up ones married life is to go on a cruise with the misses. It seems that on average couples get down and go the horizontal tango more often when on these cruises. The difference is from once or twice a week to a hormone boosting 6 times a week.

Bring your wife on a cruise and the mood is set for a romantic and passionate getaway. I see it differently, basically there isn’t anything else to do! I mean think about it; sure there are loads of activities planned by the crew, and shops to buy souvenirs, but the ladies would be in and out of those stores within an hour of leaving port, and how much bowling and miniature golf can a guy play before he looses all interest in life.

I’m sure if these experts did a comparative study between a couple on a cruise, and a couple stuck in an igloo in Antarctica, they'd find the same level of increased sexual activity.

The secret to great and copulas sex in a marriage isn’t a change of scenery or a romantic cruise, it’s the removal of distractions.

We'll I've done it! Well actually I did it a month ago. I'm no longer working at ASTRO ( AMP ). I'm now a Fat Boy! Well umm... I've been a fat boy for a while now, but I've just joined a company called Fat Boys Records, how ironic is that?

Fat Boys Records is an independent label to sign on and launch young, dynamic, talented Malaysian rock bands, with the potential to succeed in the international music industry. Fat Boys also strives to support and promote local bands by organizing events and concerts, in support of the local music industry. The label current stable of artist's include LO, Naked Breed, and Disagree.

As for me? Well I've basically the "Label Guy". I've been thrown in to the deep end of the pool with LO's album release happening the week I started, but I guess being under pressure is one of the best way to learn things quick and I sure have loads of things to learn. We're a small team at Fat Boys with only 8 staff, but it's a great team, and with the company branching out into event management things are getting really interesting, more so then usual that is.

Fasting month is upon us, and it's first week has just passed. So far so good. Had a few tough days when I had to run around and meet clients, but Alhamdulillah the rest has been good. The only problem I ever face during fasting month is the control of "other" humanly urges. Need to work on that.

I'm still around!

it's been 2 months and a few days since my last post. Where have I been? Well I've been kept busy with work, my girl, and family obligations.

I've been through some ups and downs these past few months. And have finally decided to take a risk and jump ship. God willing I'm making the right choice.

I'll be back soon.

First of is my review of the new batman movie "Batman Begins". This movies kicks ass in a good way in so many ways that it makes getting over SW :episode III so easy.

Batman is just cinema at it's best. Creativity, freshness, good writing, action, drama and much more is all included in the movie. It's all combined elegantly into a tapestry of pure visual entertainment, and mental stimulation. Sure SW : episode III had better bells and whistles, but in an era of CG, Batman pulled it off without the CG overload a lot of people think is the only way to make a good action movie.

The casting for Batman was brilliant! The director inspiring. And the Batmobile?! Well lets just say this is how the Batmobile is supposed to be, and it makes you wonder how all the other Batmans could have survived with their flimsy finned go-carts.

Go watch Batman!! You won't regret it.

Moving on to PC games, I haven't touched my xbox in 2 weeks cause I'm just totally addicted to "Guild Wars" an online massive multiplayer RPG that just looks fantastic. And for the cheery on the cake, "Guild Wars" has no monthly fee. This is the future of online games. Arena.net Who are the makers of "Guild Wars" will release expansions every 6 to 9 months and this is where they plan to make a steady source of income.

On another more personal topic, I have to start loosing weight. It's getting crazy. I'm back to where I was a year ago and that ain't good. I gotta start disciplining myself when it comes to food intake. It's crunch time and in the balance is my life...
