Finally the day came, it’s the second day of PC Fair 2008 being held at PISA, Penang. The gathering of all the computer as well as other electronic vendors seem to offer us, the user or buyer much more competitive price and product.

Ok, finish with those crappy intro … I’ve spend quite a lots today. As mention earlier in my previous post (titled ‘Yes, PC Fair is coming‘) that I want to get some memory and hard drive or dvd-r. Anyway, I did not opt for hard drive this time, I’ve chose to go for dvd-r as it’s quite cheap and afterall, I’ve wanted to burn all my movie into disc instead of keeping in my portable hard drive storage. I paid RM70 for 100 pieces of HP dvd-r. Also surprisingly the memory module was cheap too … I managed to buy myself two pieces of Kingston 1GB 667Hz RAM at the price of RM58 each (the highest I was being offered was RM67).

Apart from that, I also bought something not within the list which is Garmin GPS unit. Anyway I didn’t pay full for this item as I shared with Jane. I paid RM450 for it while the rest will be on her. I not sure how good it would be and how useful is it to me but I’m quite certain I would need it when I go KL end of this month. I want to avoid myself from being lost in KL … afterall, I hate KL and don’t have the intention to remember all the route there. Hmmm, Jane got herself memory too and another 4GB Kingston pendrive.

The amount we spend there was quite a large sum for today. We spend total of RM1032 and this figure is being shared by both of us or else I would have to go for grass as breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Oh ya, I’ve also tint the wind screen of my Honda City with Air Cool Supreme level tint film. Haven’t really tried the effect of the installation on the car but my pocket was already bleeding.

Fantasy Football August 9, 2008

The new season of English Premier League (EPL) will start its kick off soon and so do I.

Andy has invited me to join his Fantasy Football league through Yahoo! Fantasy Football games which I’ll play the role as a manager and buy my squad to compete against each other members in the league. As the start, I was given with team value of 100 credit and with this 100 credit, I must be smart in using it to built the squad. I had my team build yesterday and it’s obviously without much top player in it as they would cost a bomb in term of credit value. Just take a look on the top 5 players along with its credit value: -

1. Cristiano Ronaldo [27.09]
2. Steven Gerard [18.10]
3. Wayne Rooney [17.52]
4. Frank Lampard [17.27]
5. Robin van Persie [16.51]

With Cristiano Ronaldo credit value, I would have already built my backline with 3 defenders and a goalkeepers yet I still have 0.08 credit change. So don’t you think the credit value is simply ridiculous?

Anyway, I’ve choose to adopt 3-5-2 formation because I believe in the EPL, the top point earner always goes to the midfield players. Talking about point, it’s pretty much depend on the actual performance of the player in real life as well as some luck, so I am banking most of my credit to deposit on those player I felt would most likely to score or assist in the game (scoring and assisting in goal will earn more point).

Anyway, I do not have my own league as I’m joining Andy’s league which he called it Penisland. Ops, don’t break it wrongly. It’s suppose to be broken in ‘Pen’ + ‘Island’ and not ‘Penis’ + ‘Land’. I would also by default compete against all the team in the world for a league of my favourite team which is Man Utd! Go go Red Devils
