I just finished the book like...a day ago.
So, anyway, the book was great,
action packed from the very beginning till the end.
And the body counts rival even an Arnold movie.
Lol!
But i do have some little complains though...
Lots of stuff that hasn't been explain,
like, who or exactly what is that crying infant thingie
in the chapter "King Cross"?
And what happen to the Dursley Lot?
And Luna, Dean, Seamus, Cho Chang...and the rest?
And the ending feels....hallow.
No pun indeed, but really,
it feels as if JK Rowling wrote that hastily,
and it's one of a major put down fpr this book.
But nevertheless, the saga will
definitely enter the hall of literacy classic
or whatever you call it,
even if some critics literally hated the book.
Alas, a goodbye to our beloved boy wizard of all time.
Unless Rowling write another one or more...
who knows? It's hard to give up such a humongous cash cow.
Haha...

The life after Harry Potter...
NegarakuKu
This pretty much sums up
whatever our country is like.
50 years after our country's independence,
advance in all the infrastructures and stuff,
but the mindset deteriorate year after year.

Crazy Taliban
My prayer goes out to the Korean who was shot dead
by those bunch of mother-f**king Talibans,
the families and relatives, as well as hostages whose
fate are still unknown.
What can i say,
they're crazy, stupid, brainless,
and monster.
They're not even human.
The world will collapse if their brutality carries on.
What are they? Gods?
How dare they make childish demands and killed innocents?
"Since Kabul's administration did not listen to our demand and did not free our prisoners, the Taleban shot dead a male Korean hostage," Qari Yousuf Ahmadi, a Taleban spokesman, said yesterday.
"If the administration of Kabul is not ready to release our hostages, then by 1am the rest of the hostages will be killed. That time is the last deadline," he added.
They'll rot in hell, that's for sure. Moron, son of bitches they are.
It'll be a karma cycle that has no end.
Note: I'm not being racist nor against Islamic beliefs. In fact, i have a few close Islamic friends who has a sane mindset, peace loving, great personality and what's more, they are devout Islamics! For me, Islam is a heavy moral, peace loving religion, but what those Talibans claims that they are fighting under Allah's name?
Bah! Lies, more like Satan's offsprings. No Gods or Higher Powers will go and ask their devotees to killed or harm another lives.
Once again, my prayer goes out for those who were sacrificed, and hopefully those who are still alive will be release safely.
iPhone? Seriously.
1. Only supports EDGE (2.5G)!! Come on! I thought HSDPA was suppose to be THE must have in most smart phones? My Atom is way better.
2. Battery life sucks: Five hours of talk/browsing/email or 16 hours of audio playback? Look, we're not saying the iPhone isn't an amazing device, but you're going to want a charger on your desk at work, one in your car, one on your bedside table...
3. Built-in battery: It must be the only mobile phone on the market that doesn't have an easily user-replaceable battery. We know from the iPod that batteries age pretty quickly, but who wants to send their phone back to Apple for servicing when it needs a new battery? I don't want to have to go back to my dowdy old Nokia while Apple swaps the battery.
4. Touch screen: Have you ever stood at a touch-screen terminal in a shop punching away at the screen, trying to get it to register your touch? Despite what Apple disparagingly called "small plastic keyboards" on other mobiles, they're way more likely to work reliably than a touch-screen. No doubt Jobs has licensed the world's best touch-screen technology, but it's still likely to be the weakest point of the phone. And by the way, LG Prada preceded the phone with the techonology months earlier. Duh!
5. Heavy data usage: There's a reason why networks love ‘push email' phones like the Blackberry: it's because a tremendous amount of compression and optimisation can be done at the carrier-side before the data is sent over the air. An ultra-heavy user of a Blackberry might only use 20MB in a month - regular users will use just a few megs. On the other hand, the iPhone uses old-world ‘polling' email methods - POP3 or IMAP, where the phone will check every X minutes for new email and download full emails. The phone might have enough CPU power to rescale that 7MB JPEG, but it still has to download a 7MB JPEG. Either the service fees that go with the phone are going to be huge, or carriers are going to take a bath on data pricing and risk network congestion.
6. Uh...2MP camera, with no video recorder?? Damn, now i realize my old Motorola V360 is way better.
7. Proprietary tie-ins: Look, I'm not saying that the rest of the mobile industry isn't rife with proprietary tie-ins. Every carrier installs their crap onto mobiles, they disable useful manufacturer features so that you're forced to use their less-useful and more expensive services. But shouldn't we hold Apple to a higher standard? The iPhone can do push email according to Jobs, but only for people who have a Yahoo webmail account. Bad luck if you prefer Gmail or some other mail provider.
8. No video iChat: Er, hello? Apple has an incredible base of customers out there with integrated webcams - doubtlessly more than any other PC or software maker - so what a missed opportunity!
9. The phone cost around $599, AND we have to pay $59.99 per month, and have no freedom of choosing the network we like (bound to AT&T or was it Cingular) Damn. One year worth of mobile fees, you could buy another new phone instead.
10. Only 8GB storage: Ok, ok, sure, it's the biggest storage capacity of any phone on the market, probably, but 8GB is still pretty limited. Considering how good the video playback capabilities of the iPhone are, it's unfortunate that you won't actually be able to fit that much video on the device.
Jared at the DKS Weblog points out that the iPhone is also incapable of any syncing via WiFi or Bluetooth, despite having support for both.
Keypad sucks (well, technically, it's not even a keypad)
measly storage amount
Can't change or remove battery
expensive mobile fees
Suck-y battery life
no 3G or better yet, 3.5G
Pricey
Well, what can i say?
I hate iPod, and will still feels the same way with iPhone.
Sure, the design was great, but it really doesn't live up the hype.
And my Atom is waaaaay......better. Really.
Under my umbrella-ella-ella-ella-eh-eh-ella-ella.....

I weren't that keen on Rihanna's Umbrella when i
first heard that song. It's annoying, with the repetive
ella(s), but what can i say, after a couple repeats,
the song stuck in my head like...i don't know how to
describe. Just plain annoying and at the same time...
uh...addictive? Haha...
Anyway, i came across another version of the ella...oops,
Umbrella, which was covered by singer-songwriter Scott Simons.
I have to say, his version is a lot better, and tolerable,
to say the least. His voice is...oh so sexy, deep and husky(?)
Anyway, do check out the song by following the link below.
You'll like his version of the most annoying song to date
(well, to me, at least...haha...Gwen Stefani's nanananas verse from her song Rich Girl still stuck in my head after all these years. Lol!!)

This is an iTunes exclusive bonus track which is

The melody is so beautiful,
