Miri desktop of the year! Winnie da Pooh theme!


Working as MIS person is fun, you get to walk around freely to support people from one location to another and meet some people. Also get chances to see weird display od desktop in the office. Anyway here another example of desktop which non-verbally says "i'm going to stay here permanently and its my home". Yes fully decorated with Winnie the Pooh from monitor to personal coffeee mug. Really cute. Seems like she is going to stay there loyalist to the company. Salute.

Ultra busy week. I hope everthing is over in a month

ooooooooooooo!!!!....my days felt so long this week. Its seem everthing been a rushy days straight 7 days. Recently i've been very busy with office work and projects. Everthing been a rush. I almost forgot my usually daily chores like blogging, surfing the forum, indulge in chat with members of gaming community and most importantly complete my lates models for upcoming release. This week time is money, so more likely i have to work hard to earn some extra income since opportunity on the month of may pouring like mad. So looks like i have to get a big bucket and catch those lucky stars.

SPECIAL: MOTHER DAY, mini gift.



HAPPY MOTHER DAY to all mothers around the world especiall and specially to my mother who work hard all day which make me and my brother and sister as happy as we are now. Thank you mom. So we brother and sister just bought a mini present to my mom for a surprise, something we bought from bakery shop and i hope she like it. We didn't take her out for dinner yet because she is not happy if we spent to much on luxury food for such dinner at restaurant so we just buy something just enough to cherish her up and save money for kitchen expenses. Later we're going to suprise her. ;) HAPPY MOTHER DAY!!

A new buddy along with my ride

..




Its very hard to cope with multiple hobby especially when i suppose to go out riding my mountain bikes but still my mind stuck also with R/C racing. So i decide to put thse monster truck hunch back behind me tied to my camelback hydration back and away we go into potential off-roading trails. Bulk and looks weird when riding along the path especially when people see you hunch back with big truck behind your back..but who cares as long you have fun at the end of the day. 2 hobby in 1 day...hooo.hhoooo... here my picture of the day.

The rushing Holiday


.




Its monday, i took a day off from work and plan to settle some home matters, paying bills, insurance and financial related business, at the same time i'm going to finish of several outstanding client project which is why i took this holiday off from the office. Its going to be a rushy day for me as i have to catch up with the project schedule. Woke early in the morning, grooming then out again to play with R/C truck at the beach. Back before office hour start to pick up some documents and some related billing statement. Just in time at 8.30 line up inside the billing counter to pay phone bills, electrics, water, internet, insurance...bla..bla..bla ..bla...my wallets almost drained... Then went over into the city for light breakfast, some hair cuts, visit my friends shop and meeting some peple about some design projects discussion. Back home early at 10am get myself online long into hosting server and settle some work. I had sleepless night yesterday finish off some web project..now still on it....man i'm really sweaty! The room tempreature soar up and my 550W PC powerstation work harder then usual plus the modem heats more then usual. Later i need to take a break. Above are some picture taken when walking around the town in this beautiful sunny day.

Interesting night out.












After me and friend spent our evening playing with our radio control models we then head to town for dinner....my treat. I enjoyed local cuisine like fried rice with anchovy and spicy topping. Took 2 cans of cold coke to neutralised the spice, lol. Lucky me at night there were a group of people mraching down town on the road pass our restaurant were in. Its some chinese festival parade, i forgot what day is today since i'm way out off touch on local event calendar. I actually never took serious what's new on local calendar. I even almost forgot my own birthday date, lol

R/C Photography





Its Sunday again....... Just came back from outstation work in the evening and straight away i'm pick up two R/C models and join with other friends where we head towards open area high above the hills where there's dirt track suitable to play around with my 4x4 truck and also a flat hilly tarmac road nearby just a few meters away from my house to play with 1/28 touring car too. The weather was so good, the sunset sky gave out very beautiful ray of sunset light on the ground, after we finish off the batteries after hard driving around the dirt we then gather our R/C models and pose again beautiful backdrop around the rocky dirt space above the hills. Above picture shot with Playstation Portable (PSP) eqipped with 1.3 megapixel cam slot on mini usb port. The picture was great and the angle view taken was beautiful and breath taking...hee.hheee

Behold! salad chicken rice


Being out home again for outstation work, so not much cooking can be done at home. Its going to be busy night since i have to be with relative and friends plus also meeting some client over some design work again. With all the fuss dinner always a great way to enjoy and get a peace of mind away from stress. At local restaurant or cafe i always order special meal which never fade the taste and aroma of chicken flavored meal. As shown above this is called "salad chicken rice". Lucky me today the taste is much more crispy and saucy taste, overall this food always bring joy and pleasure then having a bucket meal of KFC chicken bucket. However when paying for the meal i notice there an increase of food prices which shocked me after i realised the price have been increase by 30% instead of original price, oh well everyone affected by global food crisis, oild and stuff. Everything sore up which really a pain and pitty for my wallet. Have to be cautions when spending on food next time.

Saturday day out.




No surprise now i'm much back again into Radio Control scene after absent for years. The parts getting cheaper and the trends also pushing up way popular then ever. I've already put my investment into few hobby grade R/C models and daily wnet outdoor for fulltime spin around local ground if i'm not onto mountain biking for the day which pretty much explain why i'm relax a day after the ride. Last Saturday evening me and my buddy who's on bigfoot bettle doing some off-roading near the beach but i've settle some technical problem for 1 hours then manage to get going later on the dirt. I've spent 30 minutes fulltime swing around and jump on the dirt with my truck doing some big air and then flip tumble 360 degree and back on its wheel again ready to sprint all over the track. It was fun pastime and great way to be outdoor watching me driving along with friends remotely on miniature car/trucks. As usually there always few trade off after fun bashing around the dirt...yeah back at home always been maintenance work, lubricating, adjusting suspension setup, tunning the electronics and unlucky me i had broken servo which cost me few bucks to fix it but its no biggy.

Our bike club exhibition in Bintang Plaza Miri City.

In went over to visit a nick's Bike Club exhibition and also promotion for upcoming local endurance challenge: "The BAKAM Challenge" endurance race coming this may. The exhibition held in Miri City inside BINTANG PLAZA building just outside PARKSON supermarket. Our members bike shown on the stage while customer products shown below.

How to enjoy life if you only have 24 hours per-day?


Most of our daily life spent entirely at the office, that's sounds bad because you'll have more postponed work to do at home again. Yeah that is around 60% you're in the office, So how do you enjoy or optimised your time without being too busy at home enjoy your hobby and things like that. Well just bring it along with you. Thats what i do so i don't have to waste my time. I bring my toy along, play before office open somewhere at town, charging batteries when you busy with other stuff, play again during lunch time, Charging the batteries again and when you get back home your battery fully charged and again away you go enjoy the whole evening. See you're actually not wasting any precious time doing nothing. Doing work and also enjoy what you wanted without leaving and waste gap of time within 24hours.

I say this is new multitasking life. You don't feel bored, down or bad, you feel more everyday at home even at the office.

May the light shone upon you ooo great kolo mee!


Woke up late, no time to cook, very rushing, its working day. Need ultimate breakfast, a tasty noodle, behold the red noodle locally made "KOLO MEE". Only today it taste different, superbly nice and crispy ingredient!! Dunno why it taste good today. Probably they switched the cooker. Hmmm..... any felt much enjoy this morning. You know the fact is that good early morning breakfast really influence how we enjoy our self all day long. So choose a great breakfast makes Jack a happy man.
