how she looks like after i fix her.
When I ask my laoban whats happening to her, he said with straight face, “I think its hardware problem, probably need to change the motherboard or worst change whole system” Omgosh no way. no no no no no no….
I was tagged by Apple for this. Thanks Apple. I’m sorry that it’s a late entry but I wish you like this one. It’s a picture of me and my grandfather whom I adore a lot. This pic was taken yesterday when me, Apple and him having dinner. He came a long way from our village to visit me at Kuching. And at the same time, doing some annual health checking at Hospital Umum Sarawak. Although he is old, he still look fit and strong. He like to visit me actually but he doesn’t have the time. He says that I remind him of my late father….
When Apple ask me where to dine at Valentine’s night, I say I’ll cook! But since I just finish working that time. Apple thought that I might be tired so she suggest we go outside eat instead. After silence awhile both of us suddenly shout, “PIZZAHUT!”. Not really a nice pick for special night but you know I just finish my shift and Apple can’t get back late so PizzaHut is the best choice we had. Plus, there’s new pizza in the menu!. This is some pictures that I take.
Hmm, some decoration on the wall.
Army Cap! I really love it! Thanks dear Apple.

I thought that after Chinese New Year I’ll be less busy, and I can take some of my time to spend with my love ones. As for my blog, I’m sorry that I need to be away for awhile. I can’t neglect my job. I’m too busy right now. Hopefully I’ll be back ASAP.
I have to work on CNY and serve my customers mineral water. Great.
Anyway, kelvintco.com greets chinese readers a Happy and Prosperous Chinese New Year.

“Can’t We Talk?” (condensed from: You Just Don’t Understand)
by Deborah Tannen
A married couple was in a car when the wife turned to her husband and asked, “Would you like to stop for a coffee?”
“No, thanks,” he answered truthfully. So they didn’t stop.
The result? The wife, who had indeed wanted to stop, became annoyed because she felt her preference had not been considered. The husband, seeing his wife was angry, became frustrated. Why didn’t she just say what she wanted?
Unfortunately, he failed to see that his wife was asking the question not to get an instant decision, but to begin a negotiation. And the woman didn’t realize that when her husband said no, he was just expressing his preference, not making a ruling. When a man and woman interpret the same interchange in such conflicting ways, it’s no wonder they can find themselves leveling angry charges of selfishness and obstinacy at each other.
As a specialist in linguistics, I have studied how the conversational styles of men and women differ. We cannot lump all men or all women into fixed categories. But the seemingly senseless misunderstandings that haunt our relationships can in part be explained by the different conversational rules by which men and women play.
Whenever I write or speak about this subject, people tell me they are relieved to learn that what has caused them trouble - and what they had previously ascribed to personal failings - is, in fact, very common.
Learning about the different though equally valid conversational frequencies men and women are tuned to can help banish the blame and help us truly talk to one another. Here are some of the most common areas of conflict:
Found this when I stumbled, thought that I share with my blog readers.
