1 BIG HAPPY FAMILY :)

I miss......

So many things I miss now days.....especially after being tied up with loads of work. Kinda wonder when will I able to balance back my life and work.....which was so importantly stressed in my ex-company.

Things I miss:

1- Rock climbing
Use to do this every Friday evening without fail....now days don do d. Don quite remember when is the last time I went rock climb also.....I think easily its 6 months ago. Not sure whether the fingers can still take the torture and the body is still as agile as used to be.

Yew Hong mention that he also miss rock climbing....hence we try to make it every Saturday from next month onwards.

2- SCUBA Diving
Last was in end July.....which is quite a tiring trip. Then subsequently no more trips d...haihzzz. Then start doin much of my DMT training d...but due to work commitment...I am forced to delay it till next year.

3- Badminton
Same case as DMT training.......have to give way to work commitment. Kinda sad coz I like badminton a lot and I can now see my skills from years of training last time are goin down the drain. Would try to make it for a regular weekend game in the future.

4- Jungle trekking & mountain climbing
Too bz to organise a trip....haihzzzzz.

This one for the weather......

OK...I admint I always criticise "u" bout ur unpredictable timing of sunlight n heavy rain. Also "u" seems like always like to rain when I wanna go somewhere....example home from work...which make me hate "u" more.

However something "u" did yest deserve some credit. Thanks for sotping the rain for a brief moment early this morning so I can go home from work. I already work till 12+am and the last thing I want is to go home in heavy rain. Thanks for stoping the rain from KL all the way to my home.....eventhough I know "u" were a bit naughty by pour a little when I am bout 200m from my home.

Anyway......thanks.

Terrible weather

Now days the weather is terrible.....seriously unpredictable. It can be so hot (burning hot) and then bout half hour later heavy rain....pouring cats n dogs. Then the sky will clear back n the sun shine again.......and this cycle of sunshine and rain could continue for few times in a day time.

With these type of weather condition ...hot, cold, hot, cold, hot, cold....even metal can bend. No wonder so many people are getting sick...which sadly including me :(

Hari Raya coming d

Hari Raya is a muslim festival.....and celebrated by all in Msia regardless of any religion and colour you are. This is the beauty of our nation....regardless of any race festivals....we will all celebrate together.

I kinda like Hari Raya....when I was a kid, will go visit dad's muslim friends who really stay in kampungs. Serious.....we really go to kampungs, where there is not really any big roads and the sight of goats n cows grazing the grass by the road side is common. The environment is just so peaceful.....no wonder those stay in kampungs lived longer and healthier.

Also during hari raya....that is the time I get to eat lemang.....yummy. I seriously love it....so tasty. Makan with some mutton curry....yum yum....kenot describe the feeling.

Now days staying in the city.....don't really have chance to visit any muslim friends who stay in kampungs anymore. Despite not being able to see goats n cows grazing grass beside the road.....the mood of hari raya is still very much alive. All this thanks to......what else, lemang lah...hehehehehe.

Driving....

For those who always say I drive like a devil...well...check these out:


Keng ah.....


The car like made out of cardboard...


Even pros with training also can crash gah....

Funny talent show....damm creative jap

Enjoy the show......

Slowly become DMT d....never tot I will make it to this stage. For those who really know me...if u tell them I am doing DMT now...they will be very suprise....they are already suprise when I become OWD.


What a geng......so many of us sharing same interest.....finally one shares my love too now.


Afterall....who say life is not that much FUN......

tour guide for the day...actually only quarter day :P

My sayang's friends came Kuantan few weeks ago and being a good host, we brought them ard KL. Since its Merdeka weekend...so the streets are very quiet....very very less car.

1st stop: (Berjaya Times Square)

They wanted to go jln jln in complexes 1st....so brought them to Berjaya Times Square. Reason to choose this place: coz its huge (outstation folks like huge complexes), many variety (this place starting to become like Sg Wang Plaza d), location (located at 1 side of KL...and ard few complexes)....and finally coz I wanna check out Borders book store...hehehehe.

We jln jln for quite long...few hours. Lastly feel hungry d, so go eat Hartz Chicken Buffet....yummy. After dinner...also bout 8.30pm d....time to proceed to the 2nd d
destination.

2nd stop: (Eye On Malaysia)
Personally i myself have not been to the Eye On Malaysia. I know its at Taman Tasik Titiwangsa.....but din know the exact location of it. Taman Tasik Titiwangsa is huge...so better know the exact location so won't make a long turn to search for it. Thanks to Google Earth, I found it......and manage to continue be the tour guide.

The rain just stop when we reach this place..., so its cooling. Visibility is very good also, coz the rain took off most of the city haze with it. There is a nice presentation of merdeka related clips on water mist screen in the lake....cool.

Manage to snap 1 pic of the Eye On Malaysia.....

using my sayang's N73....cun tak...hehehehe :P

Sayang's friends went on the Eye On Malaysia....price is ok too @ Rm 15 per person per ride. U get 6 rounds in 1 ride...ok mah. Next is the final destination for the nite.

3rd stop: (secret place with magnificent view)
This is not a tourist attraction place...but tour guides usually bring tourist here......for the one and only reason as shown in the pic below.....



For those who know KL well...you should know this spot. This place offers one of the best view of the Petronas Twin Towers. Sayang's friends like to take picture...so this spot is a must visit...furthermore the vis is so good.

So basically that was my tour guide adventure for bout quarter day....from 5+ pm till bout 12am.....quite nice to travel ard KL when the roads are clear and the air is fresher after the rain.

Baru punya background pic.....hehehehe

Got this inspiritation from my sayang's blog so I decide to try also. So here it goes...I change the background of my blog....hmmm....dunno consider nice or not.

Feedback are welcome....tq tq

A year has passed...what have changed...

When I look back a year ago....realize many things has happen for the year that has gone pass. I remember exactly on 31st August 2006 what happen:::::

1- Rock climb in 1U
I think that is the last time I rock climb in Camp5 in 1 Utama. Also its my fist climb with David Beasly. Actually we just wanted to burn some time before driving to Kuala Terengganu at midnite.

2- Exactly 2 months din kerja d
Actually still quite happy "surveying land" that time. Never had the problem of difficulty gtting up every morning...hehehehe.

3- Take rescue diving course
Never thought that after 3 n half months since started diving....I would be on my way taking rescue diver course. Its the most challenging course i too by far....more details bout that trip is available in my Dive dive dive....yahooooo...diving is FUN (Episode 3) - FINAL EPISODE posting.

4- Drive Honda Accord 3.0 V6 V-tec
1st time drive such big n powerful car ler. Also 1st time drive such expensive car. Kasi try all the features kaw kaw...EBD, ABS, TCS....etc etc. Summo it was raining heavy on the old narror road from Ceneh heading to Kuala Berang...perfect condition to test out the car. For such a big n powerful car, it handle very well, very nimble and nice to drive....really a big experience for me.

lastly....the finale:

5- Meeting and knowing her

Luv u

My Wii Experience

It all started with this sms:

FROM: Sister
i am bringin d nintendo wii game back 2nite.pls try n give me feedback. tq

So I was cordinally invited by my sis to test the Nintendo Wii her company just bought for a promotion they are doing soon. They are not promoting Wii but using it to attract customers.

For those who dunno what is Nintendo Wii.....well its a new game console introduced by Nintendo. Its very unique in the sense that it changes the way people play console game. Usually u uses a joystick or controller to play...however in Wii....u uses its controller like as an object in the game. Example if u r playing tennis, the controller serves as a tennis racquet handle...hence u play the game by really swingging the controller as if u r really playing tennis. Movement of the controller are sensed by a sensor you place on top of your TV. For more info about Nintendo Wii, please visit their website @ http://wii.nintendo.com/

OK...back to me cerita....

So here i am...like a small kid wanting ice cream when i saw the Wii console on the floor. I give the manual a few flip through n immediately pasang the console.


Nintendo Wii console ah.


Nintendo Wii console with wiress controller ah.


There is a lanyard attach with the controller....any before any games begin, there is a reminder to remind u to strap the lanyard to your wrist so it won't accidently fly off your hand while u swing it and break something...most common is your TV.


** Fasten the lanyard to your wrist like this....to avoid accidently launching any "projectile" controller towards ur TV, home hi-fi, mirror mirror on the wall, out of your house via the balcony or ur sleeping cat on the TV ** warning by Siew :P


The sensor which sense your controller movement. Also I suspect there is a motion detecter in the controller which sense your wrist movement.


There is also another warning (yes...this is a warning) to remind you to clear off a radius of area surrounding you....coz u r going to swing ur arm in multi directions according to the game...and i am sure u do not want to hit anyone while doing that. So I clear of an area about 6 square feet....enuf for me to play Wii tennis as shown in the pic above...hehehehe.

Then while playing.....aiks notice got kipas. Aiks...dangerous, later hand hit kipas how...cialat lor.

Realize the kipas is quite low also...alamak...susah ni.

So I test test....see my hand can reach the kipas or not.

Ah....luckily tak sampai.....now can continue play Wii tennis d.

Wah...play for 1 hour d...sweating a lot liao. Started from level 4 now see see...

play until level 381 d...terror leh...also the game start to feel like real tennis d now.

Opppsss.....din notice a danger just now. I reach my hand to touch the fan...but clearly won't kena....but then din realize this type of fan got a short tali to adjust the speed wan. This tali clearly my hand can hit.

Look closely...can see the tali geh.....very low saja.

Then it hapen.... **pring prang**...hand hit the tali.

The tali terus putus....kena repair with tapes......haihzzzzz...

So summary of my Nintendo Wii experience are:
- Nice to play....its seriously is something new.
- Good innovation...those jipun fellow in Nintendo really got good brain to come up with this console.
- Graphic and sound ok ok saja lah...standard stuffs lor, nothing spectacular.
- Din't really get me glued to the TV...maybe its the game which is not exciting.
- Good for exercise...i seriously sweat a lot playing Wii tennis.

lastly:
- Seriously make sure your radius of play area is clear...inclusinf overhead n underhead.

Result: 4 out of 5 mamee snacks

Faces and expressions

I've been climbing mountains for years now...and many people kept asking me what motivates me to continue in this tough and rigorous activity. Well...below are just some of the reasons:

** warning: content might deemed insulting to some...hehehehehe...hahahahaha....hihihihihihi **

Faces of satisfaction:


Admiring the beauty of nature....


Taking picture in tent b4 sleep...


4 gentlemans smiling for the camera....

Faces of happiness: (usually found after a good nite sleep at the peak of the mountain)


hehehe...see see what I mean....altitude doesn't work well with logicness/sound mind...


eeee....look so innocent....


Everyone look so happy....can stand so long to pose for the camera despite the heavy backpack...


Wah...karate kick summo....


The six warriors of the jungle......hehehe...got 1 warrior buncit wan....kekeke

Faces of accomplishment:


6 warriors smile of accomplishment after a 4 1/2 days conqour of 87kms in the jungle....1 warrior still buncit...kekekeke


Wah...see those smiling teeths....


Early morning shot...


All looks so satisfied.....like after drinking a cup of hot soup on a cold day.....ahhhhh

Of course....before all those faces appear...there are also faces of agony, despair and suffering....as below:

Faces of agony:


Aduh...letih sampai mau makan lumut.....kesian.....


This is how to "smile while in agony"...hehehehe


2nd method to "smile in agony"


3rd method....just might as well don smile since hair look like sakai d....

This is classical....just check out the difference in "smile"......hihihihihi

Those are some of the compilation of the many "faces" people go through while climbing mountains and jungle trek. In no intention I mean to insult those in the picture with my comments.....

Overall.....what kept me really really motivated in this rigourous activity can be summed up in the pictures below:


The gathering of friends and family...all gathered for a common interest...what a team.


The teamwork....it goes by the motto "All make it or no one makes it, leave no one behind".....


Teamwork do not see age and colour.....that is the beauty.....


The nite gathering after a day of hard work.......


Kenduri...hehehehe.....one of the best moments on every trip.....


Feeling of achievement......even for a father and a son, proud of each other.....


For 1st timers also....really proud of the hardwork and effort put in.....


The moments of joy....yahoooooo


"I made it"....nothing more else to say......


Oh yeah....remember its all FUN at the ending....

Well...that is all.....with so many faces and expressions...how could I ever give up this beautiful tough activity. Also its in me genes.....hahahaha...tq dad.
