Well, I think I just did. Not only that, I had to find a theme that works minus all those ajax and widget thingie which I don’t have the faintest idea how it works. And I also have to find plugins and rss feeders which involve copy and pasting the right code at the right place. For a WP noob like me it is like a blind man holding a sharp pin and poke here and poke there. If got pain-pain (like fatal error, parsing error), then I have to go back and find a place where it works.
So, I had been stuffing durians for breakfast, lunch and dinner. No need to cook mah, just pry open and you have a complete meal what. And drink some Tongkat Ali Kopi which my in-law gave. Wuah, Tongkat Ali ada pahwer!
So, yeah I am going outta my mind. Back in….5 minutes.
No lah, I am not starting a new blog. I have a Dreamweaver website which is three years old with 120 pages which I am converting to WordPress (after failing to understand Mambo). Dreamweaver can kill man ‘cos I only use a template and not css files.
BTW, one blogger called me today and said ‘Wuah, you sound so young!’ That is enough to fuel me another 8 hours of copy and pasting that blardy 120 pages which after conversion will have like 400 pages posts (‘cos last time my one page is like one mile long, so one page, I break into 4-6 blog posts).
And guys, please keep Albert who has brain injury after an accident in your prayers. I am so sad to hear this ‘cos Albert is this cool guy, with long hair and a pony tail, long moustache  who rides a big bike.  Albert is our choir member, singing bass part. Lord Jesus, look down kindly on Albert, keep him safe and provide strength to his family to ride through this storm.
Life is so unpredictable, isn’t it? I wonder how is SCB doing, btw? Keep them both in your prayers, ok!
It is 273 posts! So, I am officially dead until further notice ‘cos I need to change permalinks somemore!!!! And, and, and re-format the fonts, add line break, para, table etc ‘cos I copy without the visual rich text ‘cos my ccb old site uses blue font in Comics san serif! Fark my reliance on Dreamweaver!

Kinda reminds me when my site went down and I had to recover some 60 odd posts from Google, MSN and Yahoo cache pages. Never managed to recover them all though

gbyeow – Wuah….like that mah nightmare hor? So, those with WP, remember to instal the backup plugin and back up all the time. Heh, I talk only but too lazy to do periodic back-up.
Prometeuz – I only copy and paste, minus paragraph, line breaks or add in permalink. Later when my site is shifted, then only do that. That is even worse that copy and paste.
swifty – I saw that but see if I got time to do it ‘cos I am way out of touch with the issue. Remember briefly read in the paper only.
ahpek – Bo pan huat lor ‘cos this is like an ancient website that I am trying to modernised. All the useful info there so must update it nicely for parents’ info.

wuching – So kesian….durians heaven here.
ah nel – I steel woman, can tahan all heaty food wan. ‘Cos I don’t believe in heaty or cold foods wan, that’s why my body doesn’t care lor.
SA & The SR – Yahor, you guys can’t get durians there.

Will definitely pray for Albert.
By the way..the durian makes me lau nua…think I should fly to KL and gorge on some soon.. hahahahaha…over here in Sarawak..our durian season is normally in December…
Incidentally..not being rude…but my quirky side couldn’t help but grin when after reading and looking at the durian and then reading of poor Albert’s case….a thought came into my mind…did he get the accident because a durian fell on his head? hoo boy..sometimes I can’t even understand my brain..but yes..that was the thought that flew in….

[...] I am 90% sure that last night, when I just fell asleep, the wooden stool in my bedroom creaked like someone pushed it. I woke up and without any fear, I wondered to myself, is it my mom or is it my (dearly departed) son? Then, for a few fleeting moments, I tried to figure out. My mom’s 8th year death anniversary just passed on August 23rd. It is one of her favourite grandson’s birthday. So it has to be her. Sometimes, I marvel at the way God works. Do you all remember Albert (my church choir bass singer) whom I mentioned was hit & run by a lorry when he was riding his bike? He went into coma due to brain injuries. Later on, he woked up but one side of his body was paralysed. Each week, when we gathered for our weekly choir practice (for Christmas?!?! roll eyes) we would discussed amongst ourselves how short life is. One minute, Albert was with us, walking into choir practice with his funny moustache, ponytail, jeans bermuda and white shirt and the next minute, he is lying in the ICU, not sure what the future holds for him.
