Weekend..

Saturday, October 25th, 2008

It’s been a long week.. Real long week.. Time seems to have taken a turn for me. Usually time pasts fast for me. Seems different though this week.. Time seems to have stopped for me.. Hmm

Work:

  • Continued on Confluence’s training. Mostly was on how to use it and discovering the usages and what can be done..
  • More work and delegating support cases that had broken the SLA to other support engineers
  • Pastime

  • High pressure spraying the walls to remove old paint from a mold infested walls.. Quite a tough job although I only did a small old wee part of the wall.. :P
  • Will be heading to the Ampang Forest Reserve for a church outing. Will be taking Canny out for a photo shoot there. Hopefully everything will be done well..
  • Won’t be cycling avian this week.. Sorry Stumpy!!
  • Will be also be heading Semenyih for a fishing trip for my Deepavali holiday
  • Hmm.. Nothing much other than that then fruitless pursuits..

    Some pics of getting to PIBR. For the first time, I was really scared of being driven around. The taxi guy was talking on the phone, while steering the car with the hand that was used for the gear leaver while going down a 20% incline slope in a rickety van that looks like it was made in the 80s. And yea, the gear leaver juts out from the steering column and not the floor as of todays cars!

    After many volleyball games, swimming in the pool and in the beach, dinner came and pass like the wind. 16 hungry and starving souls devoured 8 dishes like they were nothing!! Lol. Fast and quick was the order for the day.

    Ahh, just go back from my trip from Cameron Highlands. Brr!! KL is so warm.. Help.. Hahaha. I would pretty much say that the only thing that I will miss from this trip is the weather. :P Is there no way to get such weather in KL? Can KL snow for one day please? =/

    The trip started of with a drive to Bidor to eat the famous duck noodle. Then it was a drive straight up to Cameron Highlands from Simpang Pulai.

    Me and a Golden Beetle

    Unfortunately, Googling this beetle returned no concrete answer.. Now was I just scammed by the idoit there?

    So, the days at Cameron Highlands were spend mostly moving up and down from the farms to the market place. However, I think I can safely say that the traveling from place to place actually took more time that what was used to spend in all the farms together.. But hell no.. They are actually all close together. Not even from the 1st place to the last place.. The traffic jam.. The indecent parking by the road side shows its ugly head here. Man.. Double parking one side.. Single parking on the other.. Where the hell do you expect the cars to move? Over yours?

    Bought a whole bunch of cactus’ back from there too. Spend quite alot on food. Biscuits from Bidor and Ipoh. ‘Yim Kok Kai’ (Salted Chicken) from Ipoh. Our binging session..

    1. Duck Noodle
    2. Home-made steamboat (All thanks to Mei Yan for making this possible)
    3. Breakfast of eggs, beans, toasted bread and bacon (Thanks to Tony and Mei Yan and Wi Khai and whoever took part in the cooking)
    4. Strawberry ice cream, strawberry waffle and strawberry milk shake was it?
    5. Tai Chow dinner
    6. The two mamak suppers!
    7. The dim sum at Ipoh

    Yummy!! :P

    And to everyone who reads this, here’s a rose for you!

    The Week That Was..

    Saturday, May 17th, 2008

    Hmm. Looks like there’s quite a number of things to blog about.. Although there are not many specifics to to talk about.

    1. Karaoke session on Wednesday night in Neway.
    The place was Neway. The building was Berjaya Times Square. This was my what.. 2nd karaoke session? Yea, and it was a blast! 7 of us went. Piratically almost lost my voice singing Linkin Park songs!! Hahaha. There was really nothing much after that.. RM45 was the cost. It was RM45 worth of fun and joy!

    2. More work and more work..
    The item just says it all.. More and more work will be piling up from now onwards as one of my colleagues have decided to leave. Manage to update my Ubuntu from Fiesty to Hardy. Hmm, that is the right version names right? Can’t remember but it too just about 1 hour and 45 minutes to complete the upgrade.

    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and sudo apt-get update din’t seem to work for me so I used the Update Manager instead. The noobie style!! :P

    3. Cameron Highlands
    Yup, will be heading off to Cameron Highlands in a while!! Weee!! Out and away from the house. Nobody can stop me!! :P Again, I will be heading off with my colleagues and hope that this will be a good trip for all our sake. Quite alot of planing and quite a lot of spending was done! Hmm!! Hoping to find the place in Ipoh to binge before heading off up to Cameron Highlands!

    Anything else… Hmm..
