I’ve kvetched about EMS Poslaju poor service, and I’m going to kvetch about it again! In fact this time its service is much poorer than my previous bad experience. And if you need to contact them to query about your parcel, you can find the telephone numbers here because the Pos Malaysia website is just feeding you wrong information!
You would have thought that Pos Malaysia Berhad being incorporated would run their EMS Poslaju Malaysia department like a corporate machinery. This just isn’t so; the EMS Poslaju is working worse than a third world country. How so, let’s start with this experience of mine. (more…)

This is fun, BookCrossing. Who would have thought that leaving your books in out in the wild and let somebody else pick it up, read it, and hopefully they would leave a little note behind in your BookCrossing account. It started out way back in 2001 when Ron and his wife Kaori were admiring PhotoTag.org site where disposable cameras were let go in the wild and was tracked based on the serial number. So they came up with the idea of leaving books around either at specific BookCrossing designated areas or random points of place. (more…)

Haha wife n I both took leave from work to share some quality time together. You know, Murphy's Law seems to come to play. Work won't leave us alone. All morning n perhaps to the afternoon my wife on the phone trying to solve issues with bank. And mine? Well my customers have some issues too and have to solve them though not as grave as my dear wife's work.
looks like to peace from work today. Life's like that. Can't separate work from personal. Actually you can't because we are one n same, work n personal. Just like if u think back the trinity of God, the Father, the Son n the Holy Spirit.
But them the breaks my dear. It comes with the territory.

Finally overcome some writer's block. It happens. The difficulty of writing depends on the topic. Fir travel writing, I'm in a roll. No problem here. Technical writing on the other hand is a different matter all together. How to write in such a way that would make it interesting n informative at the same time is a tough write.
Well just got to keep on writing. …

This wasn’t a chance to be missed! USAF F-16 Thunderbirds are coming to Kuala Lumpur for an aerial display, plus of course our very own local Malaysian RMAF Sukhoi jet in the opening act! So it was a must see!
Despite the traffic jam leading to the airbase plus I didn’t know where exactly is the entrance to the Subang airbase did give me some trouble to get there in the morning. Idil said I should go there early in the morning at 6am! Brrr… I still want my sleep! So I took my time getting there and left about 9am in the morning. The air show was slated to start at around 10:30am but the crowd has already gone on ahead early and I was stuck in a crawl with the latecomers. Halfway through, I decided to stop at BHP petrol station for a break. Met guy there who was wondering why there was a massive traffic jam in the early Saturday morning. So I told him about the air show. This was one of tha “Ah…” moment when he realized what caused the bad traffic jam. (more…)

Who reads my blogs anyway? Well actually there are people who likes to read. A well written piece makes for an intriguing read. Consider this blog as a micro memoir. A short point in time of a person's life in this case, mine. Not a full blown memoir of a few thousand word memoir but a short few hundred words memoir. Call it blog coz it is posted online. Also it is not easy to type on a handphone even if it had a full mini qwerty keyboard. Stil if Jodi Picoult can write about interesting fictional character n publish a book, I suppose my piece could be interesting enough for a quick glance tho it might not have enough to make it into a good litrature piece. Still I find it rather comforting that my travel writing piece did garner some fans. So keep on writing! Go freedom writers! Stranger than fiction. Yes, words can inspire n stir imagination n motivate a person to new heights!
