RM2.70/litre?!@#$%^&*

Hari ni, penghujung Februari 2006, HARGA MINYAK NAIK LAGI 30 SEN!! WARGGHHH!!!! ini membuatkan harga minyak jadi RM1.90! (actually RM1.92) dekat RM2 tu wei!! time RM1.60 pun dah sesak poket, apalagi naik 30sen! cilakak tul! sebelum ni, Wira aku memerlukan RM20 utk 2 ^1/2 trip (Papar-KK), dan kuantiti dia cuma 12.5 liter (kecuali kalau aku isi di Petronas Papar, diorg kantau 3sen wooo! RM20 ndak sampai pun 12.5 liter.. cis!)

ni sudah naik 30sen, means RM20 cuma 10.5 liter! WTF! apa ni woi!! sudah2 la tu.. cuba imagine apa impak harga minyak naik.. harga tiket kapal terbang conform naik coz part of the tickets price just utk cover minyak kapal! tambang2 bas/teksi ndak payah cakap la.. macam2 lagi lah harga yg confirm akan naik dalam masa terdekat ni..

so? apa yang boleh dibuat? macam biasa, tunggu dan lihat (dan ready utk mengalami wallet yang menipis secara mendadak..) ndak tau la apalagi tujuan harga minyak naik ni.. cakap mau kurangkan beban.. :-\ sebagai bahan renungan..

harga minyak dlm masa 16 tahun - sejak 1990
sebelum 90 - RM 0.89
tahun 1990 - RM 1.10 (kenaikan RM 0.21)
01/10/2000 - RM 1.20 ( kenaikan RM 0.10)
20/10/2001 - RM 1.30 (kenaikan RM 0.10)
01/05/2002 - RM 1.32 (kenaikan RM 0.02)
31/10/2002 - RM 1.33 (kenaikan RM 0.01)
01/03/2003 - RM 1.35 ( kenaikan RM 0.02)
01/05/2004 - RM 1.37 (kenaikan RM 0.02)
01/10/2004 - RM 1.42 ( kenaikan RM 0.05)
05/05/2005 - RM 1.52 (kenaikan RM 0.10)
31/07/2005 - RM 1.62 ( kenaikan RM 0.10)
28/02/2006 - RM 1.92 (kenaikan RM 0.30)

Ayat2 standard yang biasa kita dengar
1. Kenaikan minyak masih rendah berbanding mana2 pun negara ASEAN.
2. Kerajaan akan pastikan kenaikan tidak membebankan
3. Kerajaan tidak mampu lagi menampung subsidi.
4. Kerajaan memberi jaminan harga runcit petroleum tidak akan dinaikkan lagi pada TAHUN INI.

im bored.. so i spare some time browsing this and get some inspiration, or at least cheer up my life (cara mengubat hati utk org yang tidak mampu..) :P then i visit this, this and this..

then i remembered the malaysian version.. i admire their imagination and creativity to come out with something different (at least), but still using the same branding and identity.. (maintain the 'feel', with just one look, you know what it is..) impressive!

suddenly, i found this.. (sigh)

holaaa...! ni first attemp aku ngan vector arts. actually bukanlah yg betul2 first, dulu ada juga try2 buat, tapi ni jak lah yg first time siap, tapi aku masih ndak puas hati... mana2 guru vector tu, tolong komen mana2 yg patut.. Read More utk details2 yg selanjutnya...

ini dia hasil vector art aku yg ndak seberapa.. ntah berapa ratus kali aku trace2, ndak jugak cun.. hmm...

original picture? webmaster of sumandak.com.. dr mana aku dpt gambar ni? ntah, aku pun ndak ingat, dari friendster kali.. dave! sorry! hahahhaha! (teda niat lain, aku trace jak gambar apa yg aku ada..)

software? photoshop cs2.. napa bukan illustrator? sebab aku bodoh guna tools tu.. aku guna illustrator utk buat text2 jak, ntah kenapa aku lambat pickup guna illustrator, nasib baik la aku bukan dlm bidang printing.. kalo ndak, lama sudah kena terminate.. hehe!

apa mission aku dlm experiment ni? aku mau try buat vector arts 100% solid shape, means no Gradient involve utk buat shadow2... tapi aku failed.. kimai susah, aku rasa vector arts memang ndak boleh dipisahkan dengan gradient la..tapi ada juga vector arts yg aku tengok 100% pure shape! (aku sedar aku masih mentah.. huhuhuhu!)

so, what do i need? i need feedback.. kalau ada guru2 kat sini, tegur2 la mana yg kureng tu.. susah aku siapkan ni wei! :P

somebody's asking, "where have you been? what are you doing lately?" then i asked myself, "lately?" gosh, i've been away since November last year, leaving all the blogging thing behind..doing what? "bertapa sket (konon).. re-install balik ilmu2 yg ada (sikit jak pun).. then cuba kejar balik part2 yg aku ketinggalan jauh.." every minute, every second, there's something out there leaving you behind.. so if you just sit down and doing nothing, trust me, you gonna need a long-long journey to chase it back.. lazy? orait, just keep on sitting there and continue the legacy of 'mat jenin'.. (apa bah aku cakap nih? adui.. budu..)

ok lah.. so, i've been doing lately? currently im concerntrating on my coming portal (confidential), lama sudah plan, ndak pandai jadi2.. so now it will happen, and im ready for it.. dulu2 im planning to target Asian, specifically Malaysian.. tapi makin lama masa berlalu, makin bnyk benda yang evolve, i realize my target is impossible to achieve.. not too impossible, tapi too many site with the same idea, same concept.. sampaikan ndak terkira sudah how many of them, ada yg succeed, ada yg condemn tgh jalan..etc so in the end aku decide utk kecilkan target range, and now im dedicating this coming portal specially to Sabahan, my home land.. :)

why sabahan only? naa... teda apa2 niat utk perkauman sini, dont take it wrong ok! i think since i live here, and why not i do something about this place, and run something for this people? right! if nak buat portal for Malaysian, banyak sangat dah.. then i dont think i have enough resources from all over the country to update any news, so better the content just focus on local scene, and off course a bit about oversea.. everybody still can browse this site, cuma dont mind kalau dlm forum ramai yg cakap 'sabah'.. hehe! apa2 pun, just wait for it..

oh ya, im also looking for anybody out there who's interested to join the crew, i will release some details soon. senang crita, this portal is about web standard, internet, graphic, programming dan benda2 sewaktu dengannya.. i know lots of you Sabahan out there who mastered all of this, please gather here to help improve our industry.

sedih wei, although i havent involve deeply into this industry in Sabah, but i already can feel the pain in the @$$.. no wonder lots of you people berhijrah, sini susah cari makan. im feeling you, man.. i think i want to change this stupid perception, until when it should stay like this? those people up there keep on asking for something grand, tapi lokek keluar budget, apa ni wei? (bikin panas tul crita pasal ni..) dah la tu, kalau crita sampai tahun depan pun ndak abis.. lain kali sambung.. :)

selain portal ni, ada satu lagi projek in progress. so far masih dlm beginning phase, so bnyk research kena buat. aku ndak tau apa2 pasal field diorg ni, so mau ndak mau, have to study a bit bout this.. i will post any updates soon..

apa lagi aa? itu jak lah kali. yg lain2 belum tiba masanya lg.. bah! chow!

P/S: lamanya ndak berblog2 ni, lain pula aku rasa.. hahahahah! ntah apa mau di taip, lantak~lah...
