My prediction for UEFA Euro 2008 final winner will be Spain. The score will be Germany 1 and Spain 2. However, I will not watch the live telecast on Astro. Good night. I am going to bed now.

I was lucky to fill up my tank last week on 4 June 2008 in Caltex, Puncak Jalil after the fuel price hike announcement made. The new price for ULG 97 (unleaded) is RM2.70 per litre now. I managed to fill in RM50 that will give me 26.04 litre (RM1.92/litre). The queue in the station was not as bad as other stations. I queued for 20 minutes.

As usual, I will only go to Shell station to fill up my tank for RM50 because of BonusLink. When I reached Shell station this morning, I was surprised to see the V-Power Racing fuel price is RM3.15 per litre. This is superb crazy but I didn’t chooise it. Perhaps, I continued with Shell Super as usual and for RM50 I got my tank filled up with 18.52 litre of fuel (RM2.70/litre).

I work in Cyberjaya and I travel to Cyberjaya everyday Monday to Friday. I think of three options to save my fuel cost below. Make a difference to our environment and save our mother nature.

1. Get a fuel economy car
2. Car pooling to work
3. Install NGV into your car

Lastly, I had made my decision on installing NGV into my car. How about you?

I was shocked that Cubans are not allow to own a personal computer (PC). In recent weeks, Cuba new President Raul Castro had lifted the ban on PC ownership by the citizen of Cuba. They still can’t have Internet access at home because ban on Internet access at home has not been lifted except for trusted officials and state journalists. Luckily, the Cuba citizen still can have Internet access restricted in certain workplaces, schools and universities. After all, I hope this change is good for Cubans. Hooray!

Leslie Cheung Kwok-Wing (nicknamed elder brother or “Gor Gor”) passed away on 1 April 2003 who was also known by his Chinese name, Zhang Guorong. He was a famous singer and actor from Hong Kong. I was shocked when I heard about his death 5 years ago. He jumped down from the 24th floor of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. He was 46 years old then. I cannot believe it myself too. Until today I still can remember one of his hit song “Monica” I used to play it using cassette tape.
