LO Signed!!!


My application for home loan facility for my 3rd property has been approved and signed!!!

Personally, I'm glad that everything has been sorted out smoothly...

Jaya Supermarket






What the hell is that you might ask. Well, that's basically what used to be Jaya Supermarket. Hahaha. Yup!! Something bad happened that resulted the building the collapse and unfortunately resulted in some deaths as well. RIP to those men!!

This place has a little bit history (to me though). When I was young, during my high-school years, I used to date here. But not often though. we would go to McD across the road and just lepak at the mall. That was like 13 or 14 years ago...

Furthermore, sometimes before we jam at Black Widow, we would hang out here as well. If I can remember correctly, this was a favorite lepak spot for PJ boys!!

Anyhoos, I went to Digital Mall on the weekend and pass through what was left of Jaya Supermarket...I could still see some heavy machineries on ground zero waiting to be investigated by the authorities..

When something bad occur here in Malaysia, everyone will start pointing fingers and refuse to acknowledge the problem. The blame game starts and it will die off sooner that you would expected..

Blue Skied evening....










One of those rare 'clear' day moments in KL. For the past few days (or weeks even), KL has been hit severely with the haze, so this 'clear' day is always welcome. TOo bad I didn't spend sometime of the golf course. It could be superb blue-skied day!!

OD updates..

Now this is a shocking news to me. I applied a new OD with Maybank about 2 months ago. Initially, everything was going very smooth and the letter offer went out in the 2nd week of May. Up till today, which is the 19th day of June, they have yet to 'release' the money. So I decided to give them a buzz and what was told to me by the officer left me dumbfounded!!

The explanation given was, PNB decided to 'hold'or 'freeze any OD application pledged by the OD certificate. Now why is that so? I keep my money in ASB, I get it certified so that I can use it to increase my overdraft. What is so wrong in that? Furthermore, the money is gonna be use to create my own wealth. So, I don't see any reason as to why PNB is doing what they are doing now.

Is it because of profit maximization on their part?


hrmm...

3rd property..............

Yeah...as the title goes, I'm in the midst of purchasing my 3rd property for this year. In fact, it's gonna be the 3rd in 6 months!! This time last year, I practically had nil/zero property but as at today, I got 4.

As at today, the loan has been approved (although the bank only decided to give me 80% loan instead of 90%) and tomorrow, the bank officer will come and meet me to sign some papers...I plan to 'give' this new property to the missus..Hope she'll be happy once everything sorted out...

Not too bad eh? Well, I never expected this were to happened. If anyone were to tell me last year, that by June 09, I will have even 2 properties, I will probably die laughing. It's not easy though...and it's not difficult either.

It's just a matter of prioritizing the plans that I've made earlier. Of course, there were some sacrifices had to be made as well.

I kinda miss riding a lot. However, a lot of new and good things has occurred for the last couple of weeks so I don't think I will get a bike soon. Perhaps in 2-3 years time when I have some extra money to buy. (A matter of fact, if you have extra money, don't buy stuff...keep it in ASB..heheheh)

Talking about ASB...i'm glad that the balance looks very healthy to me. Well..not as much as some of my friends, but I thought it was good. DOubt whether it can pass the 100k mark by the end of the year, but certainly going there...

There's that for today...oh by the way, go to carl's junior for a nice & yummy Chilli Fries!!!




Have a good week ahead...

6th Place...


Last Saturday morning, I participated in a golf tournament organized by MCKK and RMC old-boys association. Specifically, it was organized by the batch 94 peeps. The tournament was held in Bukit Kemuning Golf Club. I thought it was fun though. Organizing something and yet be able to see your ex-classmates after all these years. Nevertheless, the tournament was very organized..My old school (VI) had only 1 flight participating. Biasalah, jadi guest kan?...hehehe

Anyways, I thought I played ok. Got 6th place in Medal A. Not too bad eh? The icing on the cake was, I even beat my good friend. Hehehe...you know who you are....

Weddings..weddings...weddings..



From Friday night till last night, my family and I were busy helping & assisting my cousin's wedding. It was a non-stop & tiring activity I must admit. I actually wondered whether both my uncle & aunt could get a good night sleep for the past 3 days!!

On Friday night, straight after work, I went back to SB to pick-up kecik and then head straight back to my mom's place. Right after maghrib, we head to ampang for the akad nikah ceremony. We only reached ampang about an hour and a half later as the traffic in MRR2 as well as pekan ampang was bad. I mean...really bad...I dread to think if I were to stay there and my office is somewhere in D'sara, I have to go through the traffic madness. It was a madness I have to confess!!

The akad nikah went quite smoothly although I didn't get to actually see the ceremony took place as I was busy talking to my uncles.

Atok was there as well. Pity her that she has to go through the traffic madness...When she arrived, she has to walk up the hill to go to my uncle's house. Which I think, it was rather tiring for her as she is not well...

The traffic was ok on the following day!! It took us about almost half an hour to reach ampang via DUKE highway. Talking about DUKE, i am somewhat happy that someone decided to build that expressway. It saves a lot of travelling time. Imagine without DUKE if you were to go UK perdana from D'sara. Either you take the Jln Kuching-MRR2 route or the AKLEH-MRR2 route. Both routes (for me) will involve heavy traffic at one point or another....

Anyways, the majlis persandingan went rather smooth as well. Everything was done according to plan. It's nice to see that my uncle's neighbours were heavily involved in the preparation of the wedding. As for me, I have to take turn in taking care of kecik. She just can't keep still and runs around the place most of the time...

After all the guest had left, the families (me included), we stayed back a little longer just to lepak2. It was then decided that I have to be the MC for tomorrow's persandingan at Istana Hotel. Huh!!! Of all the people, I wondered why I was chosen. I don't mind actually. What I have to do is just to read to bloody text that has been prepared earlier.





The next day, my mom decided to book a room at Istana Hotel. Actually, she booked 2 rooms. I have to admit though, I've never been to Istana Hotel before. I'm dead serios ok!!! Hahahah. Anyways, arrived there at about 12 or so, and after checking-in, we went up to the rooms. Again, being a first timer there, I'm quite impressed with the hotel's facilities/rooms and even the bathrooms!! very Nice!!

We went to Pavilion for lunch. There's this place called Food Republic in Pavilion. It's more or less like a food court. Only the name differ. It's very clean and lots and lots of people. Like pasar but a very high-class pasar. I met some of my friends there as well. I've only been in Pavilion once, that was like last year if I'm not mistaken. So yesterday was my second visit!! I must go out more lah!!


About 4 pm, all of us were back in the hotel for a short 'raptai' of the wedding. Being the MC, I thought I did ok but you know during family gatherings, everyone has their different opinions/directions so I just kept things to myself and just read the bloody text. I remembered my wedding 6 years ago. There were like 10 or 11 wedding 'directors'. Hahahahahahahaha....

Anyhoos, nothing exciting happen during the actual wedding. Everything was according to plan (again). I did my job quite ok except the fact that Kecik buat perangai and decided to poo-poo in the hall and said rather 'loudly' by her standards 'yaya beyakkk'...huh!!!!! Pity the missus as she has to make a few rounds to the room on the 9th floor because of kecik's perangai!!...

The food was ok I think. My uncle and aunt decide to go for a chinese course for dinner. Well, I'm not a fan of chinese food but I thought it was ok...Maybe because I'm allergic to seafood that's why I don't prefer them..heheheh

The ceremony ends at about 11 or so...and just like any other weddings, the families would wait till the guests disappears and we re-group for a family photo.

Earlier, myself and the missus decided to go home after the ceremony but both of were so tired that we decided to stay at the hotel for one night!! Hahahaha. Jadi org kaya sekali sekala tak per lah kan...hahahah

Anyways, to Aisyah, congratulations....

to gaddafi...welcome to our big family....

Here's a short video of kecik dancing to the kompang tune...hehehe
