Happy Binary Day!
Some people were asking what does my status mean. Let me give a brief explanation *puts on black thick rimmed glasses*
Binary is a numeric system which uses two numerals to represent all real numbers. While the most common counting system, the decimal system, uses ten numerals, binary uses only 0 and 1.
Each digit in a binary number system therefore represents a power of two. The first digit on the right represents the 0th power, the second represents the 1st power, the third represents the 2nd power, and so on. So the number 1 in the decimal system is represented also as 1 in the binary system. The number 23, by contrast, is represented as 10111 (16+0+4+2+1).
Basically binary is made up of only 0 & 1 and the digit is to the power of two and it adds up. So this year its kinda cool (in a very geeky kinda way) because they are a few dates that look like binary, namely 010110, 100110, 011010 and 101010.
Well today is 100110 which means:
- 10 January 2010
- The hex colour #100110 which is a variation of black (#000000) <—this line is coloured #100110
- In binary it equals the number 38
- Trivia : In the Futurama episode “Mother’s Day” (ep 14/19 of 2nd season), protesters chant “Hey Hey, Ho Ho, 100110″ #
Nothing too overly special or secret, just the geek in me grins because its such a geeky number :D In fact a friend of mine said, “I like binary because its either Yes (1) or No (0), no maybe’s or in between”.
Oh btw, 10 actually equals to “2” which explains my quote above

Four Catholic men & a Catholic woman were having coffee…
Four Catholic men and a Catholic woman were having coffee after mass.
The first Catholic man tells his friends, “My son is a priest. When he walks into a room, everyone calls him ‘Father’.
The second Catholic man chirps, “My son is a Bishop. When he walks into a room people call him ‘Your Grace’.”
The third Catholic man says, “My son is a Cardinal. When he enters a room everyone says ‘Your Eminence’.”
The fourth Catholic man says, “My son is the Pope. When he walks into a room people call him ‘Your Holiness’.”
Since the lone Catholic woman was sipping her coffee in silence, the four men gave her a look and said, “Well….?”
She proudly replies, “ have a daughter who is slim, tall, 38-Double D breasts, 24″ waist, and 34″ hips. When she walks into a room, people say,
‘Oh My God!.’
Hehehe! Gah sorry for my lack of proper posts. Been busy with work and getting back into the groove of working life. My bioclock is so out of whack I’m only sleeping at 4-5am every night (morning). Of course the fact that I’m playing Dragon Age: Origins really doesn’t help it :P
Oh btw, i just bought a new domain www.icednyior.com where I keep a list of my blogs and social networks. Do check it out :D

Road Trips
When I was younger, we used to take long road trips in my dad’s trusty proton saga. We lived in Miri (top right near Brunei) and would travel down all the way down to Kuching over the course of two days with a stopover at Sibu (somewhere near Sarekei on the map above).

Jan04 – Jewellry
Jewelry, a girl's best friend. Well actually diamonds but diamonds are a part of jewelry too. I would say that im not really one who is particularly crazy about it. I was once upon a time, but other interests took over – makeup for one. I have a whole stash of makeup (and only one face) that I never really use but that's another story.
Anyway, this simple piece is one given by my sister. Green turquoise plastic beads with some "diamond" accents and metal beads. Its surprisingly much much cheaper than it looks. LOL! *Im still trying to figure out what kind of direction I want to go with this photo a day thing. Plus, I just found out that bloggers are doing Project365 which is exactly what Im doing. Gah, if its one thing I hate, its being lumped together with the crowd. I remembered back when P365 was writing a post a day, not just photos. Oh well, we'll see how lah later.Posted via email from Year 2010 Project

#twtclub at Zeta Bar
Woot! First night out clubbing for 2010 and it was with my tweeple :D
Organized by @spinzer & @meiyingt (above) #twtclub was the first tweetup for 2010. The venue was Zeta Bar, KL Hilton where we paid RM40 each to open a bottle of Black Label & Chivas + mixers.
It was my first time driving to KL Hilton and I didn’t know that the security was so strict. They moved detectors (not too sure for what) under my car and even asked me to open the boot to inspect it. Parking at KL Hilton is RM8.00 flat rate if you are a patron at any of their restaurants/club/function but you must get a coupon from the receptionist.
A few “special guests” were invited – namely the team (two people turned up) behind @Digi_telco & @StarbucksMY. They were there as individuals and not under their company. It was nice to be able to see the faces behind the twitter accounts.
The band was quite good in Zeta Bar. Can’t remember their name but the male lead was a African American guy frm US (i think), the female singers were from Thailand & Philippines, then the musicians were from South Africa and other countries. Very 1Malaysia 1World. They sang songs from PCD, Lady Gaga, etc.
There are 2 types of people who go clubbing : (1) people who hit the dance floor and (2) the people who watch people dancing & getting drunk while they sit at the side :P I am of the latter. The rest had a great time dancing to various R&B hitz.
Enjoy the pics – some are taken by Euveng :D
The twitters who turned up : spinzer, meiyingt, davybates, joycescapade, williamnka, joshlim, kwangchen – thanks sooo much for paying for my parking :D, euveng, serpentinegal & royalshortness – who went back early :(, charliechia, kruel74, GSJone, and and…errr will add more later when I’ve had sleep.
Do drop comments if you’ve uploaded pics or wrote a blog post. Also if I’ve missed out your name.
All in all, it was an awesome tweetup and cant wait for another one soon :D
