the thing that should not be ...

Still in my exploring mode with my new love, I had woke up early today to explore certain functions of my N70 and without reliasing it was already 0815hrs. Left house in hurry to send wife to SUNTEC before attending to a meeting at HQ which starts at 0930hrs

Reached SUNTEC at 0845hrs and was at HQ by 0910hrs. I had initially booked for parking lot thru' my contact in HQ but I guess he had forgotten about it thus resulting me having to park at a nearby public carpark. Opened my car boot and only to realise that I had left my "Laptop" containing most of my meeting infor. at home....Arggghhhhhhhhhhh.......*why me*

I took a few second to calm down and began walking toward HQ with only a pen on my hand.(so they say, the Pen is mightier then the Sword...are they referring to POKEMON pen ?)

I had a quicky breakfast before entering the meeting room at level 10.

The meeting lasted a for almost 4 hrs..*damn*...that was long...but it was a fruitful one. I managed to clear some doubts which have been clouding my mind over the last 3 months. By 1320hrs, I left the building.

As I worked from my laptop, I had no choice by to return home to take it. *KNN*

There goes my petrol.....

New addition to the family

At last, my love have come along. After weeks of speculations with market prices going up and down, I decided that it was time to settle down. Thus, announcing the latest introduction to the family. My love of the lifetime (at least for now)...Nokia N70.



My N-gage QD have been misbehaving the pass couple of month signalling the need for a change. But I'm not dumping it rightaway. Over the years, I have grown attached to it thus, I've decided to turn it as my secret phone lover. Tucked somewhere under my pillow incase boredom strike and I can play with it.

Now, its time to EXPLORE......

... revisiting the past

After a wonderfull experience I had during my recent "Desaru" trip, I managed to sell the idea to me wifey and "Lizwan" to experience the same. Initially, due to some unforseen circumstances, plans had to be changed and modified several time.
Finally, after much analysis on the relevant data, we finally agreed upon a road trip to "MALACCA" instead.

The scheduled meet up time was supposed to be 0730hrs but a late wake up call resulted in me and me wifey reaching Lizwan house at 0830hrs.. Parked our cars at the multi storey carpark and we jumped into Lizwan " The MATRIX" automobile...

Off we go..

The causeway had a bit of a JAM...but we managed to clear it within 30mins.

From JB town, we headed straight to the the highway via Lido Beach & Skudai..



Along the journey, we decided to have our "Breakfast" at MACHAP stopover before continueing all the way to MALACCA.



Our first stop at MALACCA was the BEE FARM...*what's up with the Bee thingy* After hearing much of the BEE talk, Jabztin & Lizwan bought a bottle of honey each, promising rich nutrients and goodness that comes with it.



After the BEE thingy experience, we drove straight to "Bandar Hilir" @ka FAMOSA town.

This is a historical place with landmarks dated as early as the 13th century. Much of it still remain intact with minor modification made to the infrastructures.



Even the town itself had little changes made to it..At least not since I last visited MALACCA in 2002. The rows of shops houses kind of remind me of Singapore in the yesteryears and of those at ARAB St now. There are a lot of antique shops available which is an eye feast for those antique collectors.




Here are some of the Classic Landmark that I managed to capture during my visit there.









Prior to this, we had visited the state museum which showcased artifects and findings from the ancient time in Malacca. It was basically a live history book. I had studied some of the history stories during my secondary school so I knew some of those events that was being higlighted there.

life's a BEACH

0730hrs *damn*...am I late or what..Not to work though, but to an all guys day out..
I had only a few hrs of sleep as I had worked late the day before..all thanks to the "Firewall implementation" thingy...

Anyway, enough talk of work..I woke up 0730hrs to send my dearest wifey to work before meeting up with my other 2 kakis for a trip to DESARU Beach..
(nak merayap, kenalah ambik hati bini)

This is a ritual event that me and some of my buddies had during school holidays

By 1000hrs, we left Singapore to "Ten Two" to Desaru.



The journey was via the road to MERSING.

Reached Desaru after almost 2hrs drive. Passed by a few area such at Kota Tinggi, Bukit Apeng and etc...



We had our lunch first before we getting started with our water activities.



Lunch was good, nothing special, juz the normal stuff.. Some protein and carbo. for energy..and not forgetting those fats, for that nice taste..



The restaurant was very windy. We could hear the sounds of the waves crashing along the shoreline. Feels like I'm in paradise Island

By 1330hrs, we decide that it was time for the Sun, the Sand & the Sea...

All began stripping into our Sea Attire..First one to strip was "KEMI" ...



Once everybody is ready, we began "ten seven" toward the the sea....,but not after some friendly pose for the camera.



The wave and current was rather strong so we could not really swim..It was more of a crashing our bodies into the waves. That was fun but it takes up a lot of our strength thus making us tired easily and not forgetting having to swollow litres of sea water...



While I was busy with my body crashing into the waves, my other two buddies were busy looking all BROKEBACK for the camera...





Last I heard from them that they were "Vegetarian"..I wonder what that means..

Anyway, I had a fun time on the beach and this is how I expressed it.



Some expressed fun using SAND, like he did :



At 1545hrs, the 3 of use call it quit..We're just too tired to continue. We decided that we had enough and it was time to head to JB town as we had other missions.





By 1630hrs we are ready to hit the ROAD for our next missons....



Subsequent missions were not captured on photograph due to its sensitive contents.

With that I end .....
