Okie dokie.. back in campus after 4 days in KL... A lot had happened in that duration.. believe me.. A LOT had happened.

Thurs, Oct 9th
Attended the 1st day of the Ericsson's Developer Days in Ericsson@Cyberjaya. Left home as early as 0630 to find the place and beat the jam. Turned out that the place wasnt that far off.. so i reached there at abt 0730. Drove around for a while and stopped by at the Cyberjaya Lake Garden, reading (more like pretending to read actually) some of the articles on MPS and Symbian that i'd brought wit me. 0825, i drove off to the place, reached there around 0835, registered and waited for the programme to start while having coffee... alone.. :p
0900 - Welcoming address by Mr Hats Olsson; president & country manager, Ericsson (M).
0910 - Benefits of Parlay/OSA by Mr Marc Leclerc; Service Layer Businees Advocate. Very entertaining.
1010 - Keynote address by Dato' V, Danabalan; Sr. Vice President, Client Services, MDC.
1025 - Coffee break. Yummy... had some kuehs and sandwiches. Got to know some developers... collected some business cards. *winks*
1045 - Charging Overview by Mr. Peter Engblom; Sr. Business Support Manager.. pretty boring coz the tone of his voice was somewhat monotonous.
1115 - MMS Overview by Mr Eugene Ng
1145 - Introduction to LBS by Mr Eugene Ng.. a very brief intro of LBS.. not much technical.
1210 - Lunch Break : Had white rice with mixed veggie and sweet n sour fish. Thanks to the caterers.. sedappp!!! Lupa lak nama caterer tu.. :p
1330 - Ericsson MMS SDK for MM7 by Mr Stefan Hellkvist ... pretty cute.. and young.. Heheh.. is one of the many connections that makes up the entire MMS service.
1430 - MPS Intro by Ms Johanna Kraft ... she brought up that the group Abba had songs that actually had connection with the current mobile technology. One was the "Money, Money, Money.." and the other.. i cant remember... Not that i'm an Abba fan anyway. Her intro was more on the SDK backgrounds and such, not much on the technical part.
1450 - Coffee break. Didnt have anything coz i was still full from lunch. Returned the survey forms and got a goodie bag frm EMW, consisting of a document bag of some sort and an Ericsson's neck tag.
1510 - MPS Usage by Mr. Patrick Bertilsson... very handsome guy.. and i mean VERY handsome... a swedish... ish.. hensem seh.. iskkk... dah la bermain mata.. nasib baik la i'm taken.. kalau tak.. i would have flirted gila2..hehe.. since he wasnt wearing any ring on any of his fingers... Talked more on the technical part of MPS.. so that really caught my attention, other than his captivating looks.. ;)
1630 - Programme ends... but i went to see Patrick and Johanna personally asking them abt the integration between MPS and Symbian and abt the error messages that i'd been getting trying to run the example programme... He was cute even when he was explaining things to me... Hehhe... seriously handsome. Dahla pakai tux and such... aiyoo.. cair. :p Heheh.. but then again.. i'm sure that my dear Dan would look even more appealing if he wears tux too.. Seriously honey.. this is not lip service. *Winks*
1700 - balik, salah jalan... so ended up going thru the LDP instead of the Sg Besi Hiway.
1830 - Sampai umah.. sempat tgk athirah kejap je sbb dia nak blk kg. Lepak2 until malam.
2130 - My cuzs, Zura, Awin n Ifah picked me up before picking up another cuz, Syaril to go for a drink at NZ. Lepak2 til 2300 or so.. then balik n tdoq.

0645 - kuar umah to go for the 2nd day of the Dev Day thingy
0800 - reached cyberjaya. Lepak by the roadside sementara tunggu 0830 for registration.
0835 - registered and had coffee while waiting for the programme to start. Had a chat with a developer. Cant quite recall his name.
0900 - Opening by Mr Ezani ( the person who'd let me come at the last minute. ;) Hehhe.. thanks sooo much!!)
0915 - Developing Symbian and Java Apps by Mr. Tong Kai Loong. Not much of a technical stuff.
1000 - Coffee break. Had salami sandwich. Sat with a guy named Allan, a developer and he gave me his views on MPS and Symbian and Java.
1020 - Success Story of Akademi Fantasia by Mr Irmi adn Ms Rozina Aziz. They received like 5 million smses of votes (5 mill is the official number.. the actual number is way beyond that i should think.) Another shocking fact : they received like 1000 sms from a single mobile number in the duration of a week. Talk about being fanatic.
1050 - Java and C++ RAD with Borland by Mr Malcolm Groves... very entertaining by such a bubbly programmer.
1200 - Programme ends, and i hurried down to go home as i'd planned to go out wit my mom tat afternoon.
1210 - Took off from Ericsson, put on my sunnies (the one Dan's mom gave me), drove at 80 kmph or so, adjusted my rear view mirror since i wasnt quite comfotable wit it.
1220 - still in cyberjaya. All of a sudden, the left half of the car was already on the pavement. Kinda panicked and my feet was somewhat planted on the gas pedal instead of the brake. Then it strucked me to actually hit the brake, and i tried to steer the car back onto the road. Somehow the kar skidded and spinned. I didnt know what would happen, kept applying the brakes but the car just wouldnt stop and kept spinning. Suddenly i crashed into the decorative plants planted as part of the landscape in cyberjaya.. the one in the middle pavement between the two-way roads. And the car stopped. The srereo was playing "Shake Your Tailfeather". I took a deep breath, switched off everything, took my phone and got off from the car. I looked for dents/ damages on the car. An old merce stopped by and a chinese pakcik came by and asked if i was allright. Two other cars stopped by and came a malay pakcik and an indian guy. The chinese pakcik was telling them how my car spun and stuffs.. and, partly in a daze, i asked "My car really spin aaa??" Later the indian guy got into my car, the malay pakcik pushed the car and the chinese pakcik stopped the traffic at the other side. So the three of them got the car off the pavement onto the other side.. so i had to make a U-Turn to go back to KL. They said that the car is ok and asked if i'm capable of driving home. I said i'm fine. I thanked them profusely and the chinese pakcik asked me to go to the doctor and the indian guy wished me luck. My knees were shaking as i got into the car.. and i took a deep breath.. and headed home... Now driving at a constant speed of 70kmph... with both hands on the wheel... Boy... my first and worst accident. :p

The things i'd learned from the accident:
1. Slow down.. or better, stop the car while handling/adjusting anything while driving.
2. Dont panic. Slam down the brake NOT the gas.
3. Malaysians arent as selfish as they usually potray themselves as. Malaysians can be very helpful, regardless the different races. That's what i call unity in diversity.

Dahla.. penat type... the rest of the weekend.. nothing much.. balik kg.. looked at the new house.. pretty pissed coz its like the size of an apartment.. :p Then got back here on sunday. had a haircut.. yeah.. the pro haircut and highlighted my hair... How was it..?Heheh.. i'll say that my hair looked awesome! ;) So is alqas' hair... heheh.. we got it good gurl!!

oklaa.. planning my hols with dan now. Chiao!
