ACTIVELY BEING IRRESPONSIBLE

You don't have to be responsible for the world that you're in. - John von Neumann

Been awhile since I have updated this life story of mine so here goes:

Beloved Nokia 6630 (may thee rest in peace)
I don't believe I have posted here regarding my dear and beloved Nokia 6630 which I used it for blogging, watching short clips, listening to mp3s, alarm clock, appointment reminders and a whole pleothora of damned useful stuffs. That phone has been an intricate part of my life and it has been with me for a year. Sad to say (and I know you guys know where this is leading) that I lost it during a trip outdoors wayyyyy back in April.

Declaration of Lurveeee
I will now here, in public internet space, declare that I LOVE Miss Chin Siew Fong very much

Work, Games and everything in between
I promised a guy (name witheld) in a college to conduct a short course for J2ME for young grads/fresh grads/secondary school students. It will be a 40 hour short course and this course requires me to teach programming and games to people with NO PRE-REQUISITES what so ever. It's gonna be a challenge but it's worth a try. I've always wanted to teach....I think. This is NOT gonna be a permanent job and it's not gonna deviate me from my current career goal (see below)

Current Goals
Career: Build up my parents' business. We are doing printing (general printing, posters, flyers, box sets, cd inlays, etc) and have connections if you need to replicate cds. Contact me if you need such services or looking for a partner in Malaysia!
Physical: Lose bout 5kgs more this year
Others: STOP comparing myself to other people!

Other non chalant and non important stuffs
Currently listening to:
Sean Paul - Temperature
Nelly Furtado - Maneater
Nelly Furtado - Premiscuous Girl

Planning to fly to Java island to scout around for business opportunities
Magic: The Gathering Malaysian Nationals 2006 is just under 2 weeks away! (It's a geeks' game)
Current IGDA - Malaysian Chapter Chairman has asked me to take the position of Vice Chapter Chairman (non official and non paying) simply because:
a) He needs a local and chinese 'bridge' to other local and chinese game developers
b) I am currently not affiliated with any game companies and thus can give a neutral point of view
c) He wants me to stay and at least keep in touch with the game development industry (sob, thanks Hilmy!)


PS: Matt, if you are reading this, I have considered getting myself hired abroad to do J2ME but seeing that my friend, who WAS in Gameloft, left because he simply can't see a future into Mobile Gaming (at least to him), I have decided to just stick around in Malaysia and look for other opportunites. Thanks for the offer to become my referral, I have not yet given up entirely in the games industry, just laying dormant for awhile.
