Kampung Pt 2

Well, it's 8.10am but i dun feel like want to start work so continue with my trip....When we reached Slim Village, I'm surprised at how small the town is. Just 2 rows or less than 10 shops, a market, and a few rows of houses. My mum says it looks the same as 30 years ago except, houses are not wooden anymore but renovated and built again using bricks. Everybody knows everybody else here. Anything happens will be known to everybody....They are a friendly lot and most of them are my mum's friends....So, we went houses by houses, stopping by to chat and eat fruits and then eat more fruits....It's nice seing all the ladies talk bout their young days....and what happened to whom and gossips....We don't need any lunch coz we are eating so much fruits-rambutans, durians, pulasan...yummy and it's all free....Just pick it from the fruit orchards nearby....Many of them are rubber tappers, so was my mum last time...Now, only the older generation lives there. And I do believe they are rich. They are hardworking when they are young and they know how to save money. We can't find any youngster or teenagers around anymore. Even some are so old, they are still so healthy. No sickness or anything. That's the difference between the older generation and us. Not enuz exercise, unhealthy food, pollution, stress....the list goes on. And they have A LOT of children. I mean a lot like 10, 12 kids. Boy, I salute them. So, when it's time to leave, we were given fruits- yes fruits again...It's happy to see my mum and her freinds reunited after about 30 years. Well worth the trip. We plan to come again and this time maybe stay overnite and we can try tapping rubber also...It'll be fun....

Kampung Pt 1

With less than 6 hrs of sleep, i woke up sharp at 6am tis morning.We're going back to my my mum's vllage today!! I've never been there b4 so, it's quite an experience for me and my sis.We picked up pne of my mum's old friend and we're on our way- destination is Slim Village in Perak. With exactly 1 hr of driving (without speeding lar- coz my mum will blah blah blah if i did), we reached Tanjung Malim. Very small town....We had breakfast there.Yummyyyy and cheap 'yong tau foo' and mee.....Next destination- Sg Bil- where my mum used to visit so often when she was young. The water there is still clean and cold with awesome scenery. Too bad we didn't bring any swimming material...After about 10 mins of driving one small, winding and narrow road, we finally reach Slim Village. Oh yeah, one thing i notice bout small townsan villag eis the people are extremely friendly. We are not very sure of the waya few times and when we asked aound, they are very eager to help with a smile...Don't think city dwellers will be as helpful as that....Yawn....So sleepy an tire now so will continue tomorrow....Time o sleep now....

Sg Bil....a queit and secluded waterfall....just outskirt of Tg Malim and the scenery is breathtaking.... Posted by Hello

Email wars

Gmail->Yahoo mail->Hotmail.....Will post more comments later but just a quick synopsis...Google introduces it's mail service Gmail offering bigger space and better service than the major free mail service providers. And this initiated the war. Yahoo follow suit by giving 100Mb of space ad now Hotmail with 250Mb of space.....Thanks to Gmail that we now have much more space in Yahoo n Hotmail....he he he.....

Hazy.....

The haze is back.....Guess we have to whip out our old masks again huh? From where i am in my office, I can barely see the Twin Towers....Sigh....Go out less and drink more water. That's what the health prof. says...

Just another day

Had breakfast in Hotel Istana yesterday...Nothing much interesting.Just the same as other buffet breakfasts....An ex colleague n a close friend started his new job today, so all the best to him....It's tough trying to blend in the first few days at a new job. So many things to learn and people to know....Good luck Nick...
The haze is back....This morning saw a handsome guy jogging in the city, shirtless....Nice bod but to be jogging here in the city? Isn't it a bit unhealthy? Hmmm....Received a touching mail from a good friend, encouragng me to change job....Find something of my interest and don't waste anymore time...Thanks Nash, I will do my best....Thanks for your support....

Monday...Arrrrgggg

Dun feel like going to work today but have to coz engineers coming for training....So noisy in the office and when they left, peace and quiet....Had an eventful day today. Almost had an argument with Finance over the internal processes....So complicated. Sent the phone over to Derek.At 3pm, had an interview at Starbucks, Menara Prime. Nice talking to the Singaporean lady, a recruitment consultant. Then at 5pm, went over to Istana to collect the projector. Had a little chat with the trainer, Mr Sim. Got the vouchers for bfast. He he he...Oh yeah, today while walking back from lunch, saw ths guy picking his noise in his parked car at the roadside. Disgusting. Why people tend to do that when they are idle in the car???

Something funny happen yesterday, in the office. A colleague came to me with RM7-saying he found it in one of the corridors. Told me to broadcast a mail to all asking who lost it....I found it amusing....I mean, it's just RM 7!!! Honestly, if I found it, sudah masuk pocket loh.....Anyway, i said he found it so it's better he handle it. In the end, it ends up in HR and a mail was sent out. I wonder if anybody claims it....Hmmm...must go sibuk sibuk in HR today....Wat would you do if you found it?
