I was away, I came back and yet..

I don't feel like writing much and detailing of my work trips here. There are, after all as the name suggested, work-related trips. But you're dead wrong if you think that's all I ever did during those long weeks away. Of course there are fun-n-play time! *wink*. Most of the time, my colleagues and I were busy enjoying delicious & cheap food that we could grab at Kota Bharu & Kuala Terengganu. The seafood there are heavenly. The fish, crabs & squids are all super fresh & well..dirt cheap. Pictures of the grub we had can be seen below. Hmm..howzzat?

Happy Brthday Adam Zane

Yesterday I attended the Birthday party for the son of my best friend. His name is Adam Zane Azlan and he turned 2 last Friday (April 10th). The theme was 'Wonder Pets' and his mummy put a cape (ala one of Wonderpets character) on him, so cute. I tried to find toy with Wonderpets characters/pictures but to no avail. However, got him a nice train by Fisher Price. Hope you like it, Adam! Met so many friends at the do. However, I was out of the door by 5 to rush for my flight at Subang Airport and here I am now, at Kota Bharu, Kelantan until this Thursday. On the other hand, my sister in law has been admitted to a hospital here and is schedule to undergo her C- Section tommorow. Weee! Looks like I'm gonna get a new niece/naphew soon!

Here is Adam Zane. A handsome boy and bundle of joys belong to SRR & MAM! Good job Mummy & Daddy! Love you all.

p/s : and thanks for the lovely food. Sorry can't stay long and help clean up.

Listen: (this has been playing in my head since yesterday) - Wonder Pets theme song!

Talented Bloke

Have you heard of this artist name James Morrison? He is so talented, and his songs are all awesome. I think he's also very gorgeous to boot! at least for me lah. Yummy.

His voice is like..Oh my god! husky and so engaging. I sleep at night listening to his songs on my mp3 player. Would love to go to his concert one day and I found out that he came to KL in 2007 for the live & loud concert, kinda bummer! where was I at that moment?

His first album 'Undiscovered' was so cool and I never get tired listening to all the tracks. I was hooked. Then late last year when his 2nd album ' songs for you, truth for me' was out, again I found that all tracks are equally nice and this time around, I'm crazy for him! haha.

If you never heard of him, owh! go find the cd ok? and to prove that he's gorgeous as I claimed, here are his pics. I didn't take this personally, credits are to the photographer & his pictures up at his website. For more details of him you can check out at http://www.jamesmorrisonmusic.com/

but the collage is mine lah. Nice or not? see, I told you he's a hottie.

Til next time.

Dream away

I had a weird dream recently. No, nothing's dirty about it :) in case you're wondering haha.

Right,

So I woke up (in my dream) because I felt kind of strong wind, sea breeze blowing to my face. Then, while still closing my eyes, I can hear the sound of waves lapping to the shore and birds chirping. I knew I am somewhere near the sea, on a beach precisely. But I'm positive that I've never been to one like this before. The smells of the saltwater hits my nose and my skin/face affirms that I'm indeed sleeping by the sea, you know the feeling of getting the 'salt on your skin'. I'm under a shady spot of many trees there and I think I'm alone, but I don't feel afraid or freak out, more like enjoying the moments and languishing the afternoon away. Then my alarm shattered all the bliss!Sheesh!

Dream aside, I will be happy to wake up on a place like this!

This is Mataking Island off the eastern coast of Sabah state (Malaysia have 2 states on Borneo Island - Sabah & Sarawak, while the rest of Borneo belongs to Indonesia & a little bit of Brunei). Would love to go to this island again and feast my eyes on the turquiose water, feel the calm and tranquility of the place. It really relaxing, I tell you that. Maybe my next trip there will see me embark on one thing that I wish I'd tried/take up/learn long time ago. Scuba Diving. For more on this lovely little charm island, go visit http://www.mataking.com/

Toodles.

Am here..still

Hello all..

Owh! This is unacceptable. I rarely made any effort to update this blog anymore. How could it be? I love this blog! But somehow I was swamp with works, going outstations and rushing back to hometown in between weekends to help my sister & her business. This blog has truly lost its priority and almost forgotten. I don’t mind if there is no reader who visited and actually read my rant. It doesn’t matter. I wrote here mainly for myself. It’s always fun to me to reread back what I wrote previously and found (sometimes) amusing thoughts of what was actually running in my head at that time. Oh well.
See how fast time flies by? It’s already April. And Malaysia got our 6th Prime Minister last Friday. Here’s to 1 Malaysia! As proclaimed by the new PM, YAB Dato’ Sri Mohd Najib Tun Razak. Ah yes, he’s from Pahang, my home state. Although technically, I was born in Negeri Sembilan but I feels more homely in Pahang. I lived most of my life and went to school (even 3 yrs of college in Kuantan). But I love my blood/history of my ancestors who hailed from Tanah Minangkabau to Negeri Sembilan to bits! Sadly, we only maintain minimal contacts with cousins and relatives from my mother’ side. I was in Seremban recently for work, but didn’t make time to go and meet my cousins, Shame on you, Chah!
And where am I going next? Next trip will see me going to east coast of peninsular Malaysia. Specifically,to the state of Kelantan and Terengganu. Coastal towns, cheap food & clothes, hmm what can I say? Let’s hope it’s no longer raining season there.

later.
