Sounds familiar to some of you? Probably as the title was plucked from one of my friend's blog that i can recall. It have been some time since i blogged, probably due to my workload which is pressing on me hard. I hardly can find the time for myself or with my loved ones, either i am on call or need to work long hours even its weekend. After completing all the work, i am too dead tired to do anything else interesting or out of extra ordinary. Been living a quite a boring life with work in my mind or way all the time.
One of the time when i have some time off is 2 Saturday back, on the 11 April 2009 whereby myself, Sarah and Kuan Ming headed for a day trip to Melacca. We took off from KL early morning @ 8am and reach Melacca at about 10.30am as i was driving slow. What is the rationale of getting summons to speed to a location whereby the initial plan was to have some fun and have a laid back life. We went there to eat Chicken Rice Ball, Popiah(x2), Coconut Shake, Wan Tan Mee(x3), Nyonya Laska, Barli Lime, Rojak, Fruits Candy Coated with malt, Dim Sum and etc. Too much to express in words for the foods that we have consumes. Bet my girlfriend, Sarah put on few hundred grams for sure :)
We went around Melacca for photo shoot, and below would be the slideshow of the photos taken throughout the trip. Enjoy :-)
Had a great time in Melacca despite coming back dead tired and with sun burned marks on my face due to pro long exposure under the direct sunlight.

My thoughts for today
Coming year end, but seems work is picking up, more than what i can imagine. Been alone in office these few days and has been pretty tired as lots to do, yet so little time. From today, there will be another 8 days until going into year 2009. What has been accomplish so far for year 2008? I am still pretty much in the dark of what has happen, looking into 2009 is not too much brighter after all.
Now i am just waiting for Christmas, but before christmas will be attending one musical show, Mamma Mia @ Istana Budaya which happens to be tomorrow. Can't wait to watch this smashhing musical show...

Then coming to Christmas, as usual to have Christmas Dinner meal, especially the turkey @ Sarah's place :) Not her cooking, but her mum... Thanks in advanced. What's more for Christmas? Nothing much, as this year is a busy year, as for Christmas day itself, i might need to provide support to PCSB customer as few rigs would be tentatively drilling on that day. Come on, give me a break :( Its Christmas... Santa, i want a worryless Christmas...Can i?
What is after Christmas? I plan to take a day leave on Boxing Day, so that can relax a bit after working for logn long hours for the past week. Been pretty hectic actually, so think this is the best time to recharge and at the same time to prepare for our Penang trip on 27-29 Dec 08. Will be driving up to Penang and look for few friends to seek their help to bring us around, those that i am targetting will be Chin Leng, Khai Chen and also Mei Leng.
After that, then will be new year already. Not sure what is my plan yet, as this year been pretty unplanned and the pretty gals in my team all have teamed up and took leave for this whole week, so it is not that easy for me to take leave. Lets see how it goes, hope all goes well for New Year, 2009. Hope all turns out well for the coming new year and hope all will have a great year ahead despite the economic downturn that affecting globally.

Langkawi : 3D2N / 64hrs
Life or work been busy lately after my return from my short outstation trip to Langkawi. Didnt have the chance to blog about it yet much earlier when i came back to Kuala Lumpur on Wednesday late evening.
Journey started on 28 April 2008 in the early morning about 6am from Cheras. Jumped into the car and started the few days journey up north towards Kedah, Kuala Kedah then ferry ride towards Langkawi Island which takes about 1hr 15min from Kuala Kedah to Langkawi Island. Step down in Langkawi at about 1.30pm, then straight head for lunch as we didnt had any food intake for the past 6 hours, other than junk foods throughout the journey.
Got the car, rented the car for RM55/day and drove to the mall for the common meal, which is McDonalds, the most standard meal at anywhere :) After filling our stomach, we went straight to shopping, our favorite :) Mostly is window shopping and then got ourself some liquor, Southern Comfort Reserve for RM 56 and few cans of beer to mix around for the coming 2 nights.
Check-in to the hotel/resort and then straight tothe room. The room was not that clean so called up the Receptionist and ask for change room, but fully booked so nothing much they can do, only able to ask the house keeping to clean up the rooms. At least better than living in a dirty room :)
We didnt went out for Island Hopping or for snorkelling as we have gone through that before, as this time we are looking forward to leisure time rather than hectic time. We prefer to relax around the island, look for good or nice food and drink around :) We were able to achieve that, also the beach side.
Been too busy in work in the normal days in Kuala Lumpur, so a get away is always good for us who live in busy yet stressful city like KL. Well spend the 3 days 2 nights, still dont think it was enough, but good things need to come to an end as always else we would never know how good things/time are if there were not bad time or hard time.
I guess we as normal human beings, always make the similar mistakes where we never apreciate the time that we have and go through each day. Everyday we look forward to the next day, but never took the time to review back those that have passed and enjoy each and every moment that we walk in the journey of our lifetime. I know we will not be the only one to go to some vacation, so does a few of my other friend who will be heading down to beach side to chill out also, but too bad i would not be able to join them there as i will be working. Anyway, just would wish them all the best and enjoy their trip to the fullest, also to enjoy each and every moment that they have together, just the two of them being together and also sharing each moment together.
Didn't have the chance to upload any photos yet as i was working throughout the weekend, so hope i could get some time to upload those photos as soon as possible for viewing :) Do drop by again soon...
P/s: I will be going offshore soon enough, next weekend for a few days there. Hope can find back leisure time between my busy schedule :)

Offshore Diary @ T9 for 2 weeks
Have been away from KL since 31 March 08 until 12 April 08 where i return back to KL after two weeks. This was a PE job that i attended, had an eye opener for the job, perhaps i should learn more about the job. Okay, enough about that, some of the photos that were taken throughout the trip at T9 that i would like to share with you :)
Here goes, enjoy...
The life at T9 was relaxing as i was on standby while waiting for the job to commence on Thursday night, which means that i was there without much work for about a week plus. Stressful at first as i am not use to being too free at times, so took the time to do some reading and some movies to kill sometime while admiring the sunset view at the end of everyday while wating for the job to commence and also for me to step foot on the helipad to depart and proceed back to KL.
I got out of the rig on Saturday, late afternoon so not able to catch the last flight back to KL but luckily i was not alone. Met a great guy, not from the perspective of a gal, but from a guy :) He was friendly and easy going where we had a great time chatting and teasing one of the other guy :) We had dinner, seafood at Kuantan along with the driver and also went to chill out at the lounge. You are not going to belief what i saw. I saw all in the lounge, all 3 skin color, young and old, thin and fat and many more. You dont get to see that in town :)
Took the earliest flight possible to come back to KL to be home once again :) Missed all the great stuff in KL, especially the great food :)

Cameron Highlands Vacation (29-31 Dec 07)
Just came back from rig not long ago, that's why now only had the chance for me to post this blog that i wanted to post while i was at the rig. I did had a wonderful time there, with the great environment, i am referring to the hotel that i was staying, Century Pines Resort. It is a 2 years old plus hotel at the new wing. The hotel looks is as below:
The location is great as it is located at the Tanah Rata, near the town and also to other locations. Some of the shots that i have taken throughout the trip is in the sideshow below:

~ KLCC : Lonely and Boring ~
Waiting for time to pass in KLCC. Sitting at the Coffee Bean while surfing net. But the connection here really sucks. Probably in another half an hour or so before i would be able to start my journey back home. Don't know why, suddenly feel very tired and sleepy. Perhaps i need more rest before i go for vacation tomorrow at Cameron Highlands.
Main intention is to rest and relax there while giving myself a chance to enjoy and feel my new E-510 with the probable sceneries there. Looking forward to some great shots there and also to have a whole enjoyable experience there. Plans to depart at 8am tomorrow and hopefully would be able to reach Cameron by 12 noon where we can spend some time to walk around before we check in to the hotel at Tanah Rata.
Now still in the midst of planning where to go, either to spend one single night there or make it a two night stay before coming back to KL for the new year countdown. Lets see how it goes, but i am looking forward to a great trip there to have a slow end to year 2007 and also in preparation for a loud bang for the year 2008 :)
