我為何讓你走

仍然是這街中的四周　仍然是這夜晚空氣在浮　
騎著電單車的黑皮褸　懷念妳那雙手
從來沒有飲品祇有酒　迎著夜雨淚更爽快地流　
從來沒發誓一生永久　還是會心傷透
我為何讓妳走　一走了妳永遠再不回頭　
然後我像跌入洪溝　誰也沒法拯救
我為何讓妳走　祇因妳說妳有妳的自由　
無奈我為妳易放而難收　從此飄於世間像夢遊
尋覓著妳蹤跡一再走　才明白這是個廣闊地球　
誰人在這夜輕捉妳手　誰在吻妳的口
誰曾話過相戀想永久　人便定要讓愛的有自由　
然而就這夜竟分了手　誰為我心補救

離開以後

近日像每樣話題總不適合妳
近日夜深相聚飄起一抹冷漠空氣
在這天是妳事無大小多麼生氣
誰人亦可知妳將別離！

落寞地躺在睡床試試抱緊妳
但是目光躲避　令我可感到妳在喘氣
沒說出　亦領會誰在撩動妳
拋開苦痛去解脫自己
讓妳那些冷卻熱情另有生機！

※離開我以後　我會習慣自卑
明天再偶遇　我也不敢偷望妳
離開我以後　季節冷暖天氣
我也置諸不理　願名字也再不記起
離開我以後我會長留這地
晨早到午夜撲進漆黑想念妳
離開我以後醉了會看到妳
夢中方可永久地接近妳！
Wooh...Wooh...

伴著但我在預期妳會說捨棄
問事實怎躲避
在倒數將要每日想妳
若這刻　若最後無力留下妳
將消失勇氣釋放自己
就算某天我吻別人亦當親妳！

重唱※

愛在記憶中找你

我對你　這一生　哪個可比
我與你　差一些　永遠一起
邂逅時間場地　似連場好戲
要自何頁說起

愛太重　深呼吸　欠缺空氣
愛太美　輕輕的　卻載不起
愛情來到時候　似明媚天氣
它走了　突然驟變雪落雨飛

＊如果可以恨你　全力痛恨你
連遇上亦要躲避
無非想（要）放下你　還是掛念你
誰又會及我傷悲
前事最怕有人提起
就算怎麼伸盡手臂
我們亦有一些距離＊

你太遠　該怎麼　說對不起
你太近　一轉身　卻已高飛
快樂也許太短　似場流星雨
一眨眼　就如幻愛怕又記起

Repeat＊(＊)

我情愿我狠心憎你
我還在記憶中找你

这么近那么远

The Secret (Exposed)

This book was recommended to me by KeepCharmingAlwiz. I took only about 3 hours total to finish it. I don't read the physical version but downloaded the pdf version and read it from my handphone when there is nothing to do.

After finish reading it, I can only think about 1 word BULLSHIT

The main thesis according to the book being that the "secret" to anything in life, wealth, health, success, love, romance, happiness is positive thinking, thinking positive thoughts. More specifically, imagining things that you want to have and really, truly believe that you already have them, and feel good about having them now!

For example, if you want to be rich, you should first imagine that you are already rich; second, you should really believe that you are already rich; and third you should feel yourself in a rich life style, feel happy about it. If you keep doing this for awhile, miraculously the doors of wealth will open to you, all the opportunities will line up at your door and you will be well into your way to becoming that rich person you are imagining.

Similarly, if you want to loose weight, you should imagine yourself in your ideal weight, really focus on that, only allow yourself "thin thoughts" and avoid "fat thoughts", and you will get thin. I quote; "if someone is overweight, it came from thinking fat thoughts". Another one; "Food cannot cause you to put on weight, unless you think it can." Do you think we readers are small children?

"Make a command to the Universe. Let the Universe know what you want. The universe responds to your thoughts." Another one: "The Universe will start to rearrange itself to make it happen for you." Really? I didn't know the entire universe cared so much about me!

Like always finding a parking spot, never having to wait in lines, never being late etc. And a lot of people are, allegedly, already doing it: "We have received thousands of accounts of The Secret being used to bring about large sums of money and unexpected checks in the mail. People have used the secret to manifest their perfect homes, life partners, cars, jobs, and promotions, with many accounts of businesses being transformed within days of applying The Secret." Really want to laugh out loud!

One look at the titles of the co-authors of the book says a lot: Metaphysician, healer, life coach, law of attraction specialist, feng shui consultant (sure)...It even deliberately misuse the comments of great people of all time like Albert Einstein, Henry Ford etc just to boost the popularity of this book. Really disappointing!

Remember, there is no free lunch in this world!

PerfectDisk 2008 Professional

Let me just review this excellent disk defragment software by giving my views on the claimed features on its website. The free 30 days trial can also be downloaded there.

• Patented SMARTPlacement™ Optimization
  PerfectDisk 2008's SMARTPlacement™ optimization strategy results in faster subsequent defragmentation runs and faster boot times because many of the files on the drive do not need to be moved at all, since they are placed according to users unique usage patterns. Typical defragmenters waste resources by constantly moving all files around on the drive during every defrag pass.

Each subsequent of my defragmentation is faster because the files are constantly being optimized in placing

• Space Restoration Technology™
  PerfectDisk 2008's exclusive Space Restoration Technology provides the most complete and efficient free space consolidation available today. In a single pass, PerfectDisk 2008 creates the largest piece of contiguous free space possible. This results in less fragmentation occurring when new files are created and also improves write file access time, in addition to read file access time, which is all typical defragmenters focus on. A Consolidate Free Space Defrag option is also available which creates the largest piece of contiguous free space available. This is useful prior to creating large files or in performing partition resizing operations. It is also useful in compressing a virtual hard drive on a virtual machine, as a large amount of contiguous space will be recaptured.

True, after defragmentation, there was a large contiguous free space on each of my drive

• Single-pass File and Free Space Defragmentation
  PerfectDisk 2008 performs a complete defragmentation of files and free space in a single pass no matter how large the drive or how badly fragmented the drive. No slowly chipping away at the problem like typical defragmenters. Once and done - and using fewer resources as well. In addition, you have a clear understanding of when your drive has completed its defragmentation.

Amazing fast speed of defragmentation

PerfectDisk 2008

• Complete Automation
  PerfectDisk 2008's exclusive AutoPilot Scheduling automates all aspects of defragmentation. Administrators and users have complete flexibility in defining schedules to completely automate the enterprise's defragmentation. For example, schedules can be set to run daily, weekly, or only when the user's screen saver is on. If users are working, PerfectDisk will run in the background. With StealthPatrol, users can choose to have PerfectDisk only run during system idle time.

Its the most useful feature, set it and forget it!

• Minimal Free Space Requirement
  Raxco Software pioneered defragmentation of the largest drives with minimal free space - as little as 1% free space on a drive is required to defragment it with PerfectDisk 2008.

Never tried it before , my drive always had at least 20% free space.

• Complete NTFS Metadata File Defragmentation
  Because only PerfectDisk 2008 defragments all metadata, the result is a drive that is completely defragmented. Other defragmenters do not defragment all of the NTFS metadata and even more alarming, do not report on the files they leave fragmented. And PerfectDisk also provides complete fragmentation statistics for all files. You get the complete picture of the state of your drive. With other defragmenters, since you don't have statistics on all files, you're only seeing part of the picture.

Complete statistics are available after each defragmentation

• Optimized Master File Table (MFT) Placement
  PerfectDisk 2008 provides a 5%-10% performance improvement over typical defragmenters because of where PerfectDisk 2008 places the MFT. Microsoft has specific guidelines for placement of the MFT for this improved performance, and only PerfectDisk follows these guidelines.

Can't be ascertained as claimed.

• Selected Files Defrag
  PerfectDisk 2008 allows users to defragment a single file, or selected files, rather than an entire drive if desired. This can be useful for users working with large files, such as videos.
  

Absolutely right! Saves time as well

• CPU and I/O Throttling
  PerfectDisk 2008 provides the ability to control CPU and I/O resources. While PerfectDisk 2008 uses very little CPU resources, administrators still have the ability to throttle CPU depending on certain circumstances. Similarly, I/O activity can also be throttled. This can be useful if, for example, another application is performing large amounts of I/O.

Yes, by doing this, it will not affect the performance of the task you are doing.

• User-defined thresholds
  PerfectDisk 2008's exclusive Perfect-Time™ user-defined threshold capability allows you to limit the amount of times PerfectDisk needs to run to only when a site-defined level of fragmentation is reached, thereby reducing unnecessary defrag runs.

No need to defragment when your drive is already working in top condition, neat

• Low System Resource Usage
  PerfectDisk 2008 has low CPU and memory usage, which saves computer resources, freeing them for other needs and applications.

The process is hardly noticeable on my PC

• Automatic Shutdown After Defrag
  PerfectDisk 2008 can be set to shut down at the conclusion of a defrag.

No particular interest to me

• Defragments directories, pagefile and hibernate file
  No file or directory is left fragmented with PerfectDisk 2008, so you'll have better performance. No other defragmenter defragments the hibernate file.

Unable to do offline defragmentation as it is locked up, dunno why! A problem for me since using Diskeeper

Why is it important to defragment your hard disk?

Every time you use your computer, even when it's brand new, the files on your PC or laptop will continuously become fragmented. This means that these files are split into millions of pieces, and this occurs even more so when you go to add, modify and delete them. So when you go to access a file - even just to read it - it will take much longer than necessary because Windows has to first find each piece of the file before you can even see it.

This makes using your computer, and doing everything you want, much slower than it should be. Fragmentation also leads to much slower boot times and will make applications run slow or even potentially cause them to "lock-up" or freeze.

Defragging your computer puts the pieces of your files back together into a single piece - the way they should be. A defragmented computer will boot quicker, files will be accessed faster, and your applications will not hang. A good disk defragger will not only defragment, but will also consolidate the free space on your drives into one large piece so when you create a new file, there will be enough free space to save that file in a single piece, rather than fragmenting right away.

Defragmenting the old way..using windows disk defragmenter

For most users, the default disk defragmenter provided in Windows seems to be enough. The truth is it only defragment the drive up to a certain limit only. For power users such as those using their computers for gaming and high end editing, it is certainly insufficient.

There are currently only 2 commercial disk defragmenter available that is really good ie. Diskeeper and PerfectDisk. I have been using Diskeeper until last year when I decided to give PerfectDisk a try. PerfectDisk is currently my favourite and I'll write more about it in my next posting..
