more.....

Yeah....In a couple of weeks time, I'll be moving to MY own place!! Yey!! I'm super excited and can't actually wait for the time to move in. Buy new things and so forth. In saying that, I've also searched around for kecik's nursery. I've decided to send her to a place new my mom's which is in Damansara due to its environment and the exposure that Kecik will experience. I'm sure she will enjoy it!!

Having said that, I just got back from another diving trip to Tioman (well, Tioman actually). I went for an LOB trip with my instructor, Ravi and met new friends along the way. I went for the Advance Open Water course and I thought that I did pretty well. I did about 7 dives for that 2 days trip and believe me I was exhausted when I got home on Sunday night.

By the way, I 'hop' into a friend's car. And this guy, he is from the UK and he drives like a drunk englishman. At times, I really felt that some car or lorry gonna hit us as he was driving really, REALLY mad. I swear to myself that if ever go to another trip with these guys again, I'll make sure that I won't sit in his car/jeep!!

Apart from the roller coaster and dicing with death ride in the car, I enjoyed myself throughout the trip. This was the first time I ever join an LOB trip. Sleeping in the bunker bed was not what I had in mind but during the trip, I thought it was ok. I was roomed with 6 other divers and they all snore the shit out of me. hahaha...It was like a symphony in that 'room'...Well, after doing 5 dives in a day, I'm pretty sure everyone's tired ehh...

All in all we did 7 dives and I'm glad that i took the advance course. At least from now on, I'll be a little bit more confident underwater and can have more fun. Heheheh..

On the other hand, we'll be reaching the year end soon and I guess, I'll be a bit busier due to the closing of accounts. Lots of outstanding matters to do. hehehe...I guess, I have been saying so many time in this blog but I still believe that I still have a long way to go before I can achieve what I want. I'm happy for the things that I have accomplished this year and I want more..

A quick conversation with a friend a few nights ago, he suggested me to buy a condo in Kota Damansara. I am contemplating to buy one actually. However, since I'm moving out, I'm pretty sure I need to use some cash to buy some stuff. Ehh. After all, there are thousands and thousands of condos/houses are for sale at any one time, so for the next one, I'm gonna carefully select which one I can purchase....

Oohhh...btw, during my way back from Tg Gemok the other day, I passed by Ikram and I can see that Unipark Condo's Block A has been completed. Maybe, I would expect them to call me to collect the keys one of these days. That will incur cost as well. huhuhu.......

New place.....

Well...for the last couple of years has been hectic for me and wifey with our day jobs and stuff. And of course, when our day in the office ended, we wanna go back to our nice little crib and have a peace of mind and spent some quality time with kecik. Hopefully, in a week's time, we are gonna get our new place sorted out and have our very own private place. Hehehehehe.............

itchy hands...


It's been aeons since I last played golf. For the last 2 months or so, a lot of un-wanted things happened. Some were so depressing. Let's take a look...Starting off from July. Ok, in July, my grandma passed away. Prior to that, we were at the hospital almost every day for 2 weeks. Then in August, Alya was admitted to the hospital due to asthma attack. I went for a scuba trip in August as well so that's 1 weekend gone. September was a puasa month. So my golfing activities also have to puasa. Hhehehe. However, managed to play a round of golf at awana on of those weekend during Ramadan.

Gee...that's was the last time I played. Anyhoos, I got infected with an acute conjunctivities few days before Raya and recovered about 2 weeks back. Then, alya was back in the hospital, again because of asthma. Huh...

This saturday is definitely a no-no as wifey's sister is getting engaged. Perhaps next week I can start playing regularly again. I actually begin to wonder when can I play again... My hands are so itchy nowadays...hehehe

I've (think) been bitten.....

Last night, after a few months, I test-rode my friend's new bike. After testing it, I felt a little strange. I think I might have been bitter by the riding bug again.....grrrrrr.............sabar ya!!!

phewwww..at last....

Since a few days before Hari Raya, I was well due to the fact that I had a very serious eye infection. It was so bad that I was 'confined' at home for about 2 weeks plus. Only this week that I managed to claw my way back to the office and hence, normal activities shall resumed later in the week.



I didn't celebrate this year's raya as my right eye was so red and itchy plus a wee bit of pain. Most of all, it was so uncomfortable. I can't read, i can't watch tv and and during the past 2 weeks, I can't even see clearly with my right eye.

Anyway, that is all over now and I'm so looking forward for the next couple of months. It's gonna be hectic as I got a few of accounts to finish off and lots of other things to do...




ANyway, have a nice day...

Wake me up when September ends...

In a few days time, some of us will be celebrating Hari Raya. It's the day that some of us has been waiting for after fasting for about a month. For me though, I feel blessed that some of the things that I have plan earlier in the year, I have managed to achieved. Of course, there are some things that I haven't achieve as yet.

Since we are in September, we are actually approaching the last quater of 2009. So I believed that we should look back at our earlier plans and really ask ourselves the right questions, what have we accomplish so far? I took a great look at myself and what I've done for the last 8 months and of course, there are some things that I'm happy and there were certain things that I wished I could have done differently.

Sometimes, we need to make mistakes in order for us to move forward. Mistakes are seen as negativity but it sucks big time when it happen. Believe me, I've made a few and it bothers me every time I think of it. On the other side of the coin, mistakes can be the source of inspiration to some as we learn a lot from making mistakes. For example, about two or three years ago, I open up a company after what I believed was to be a wonderful business opportunity. It has something to do with selling coating materials. Believed me, I was blinded but the so-called opportunity that I straight away open up a company. However, with the lack of proper knowledge, the lack of networks, the lack of support and so forth, the company was headed to fail right from the start. Furthermore, the guy who introduced us the business, he wants to have an active participation in the shareholding of the company. I was a bit shocked cause he has a company of his own that 'imports' the material from the States. What he wants us to have some other company that can do the sales and marketing job for him and he does not gives us the sole rights to sell the materials (which makes things a wee bit difficult)

After a few meetings, I decided that things were not working out for all the parties and it is best left that we should go our separate ways. Now the company that was set up purposely to market and sell coating materials, is being being used by me to do a wee bit of trading. The other night after a short conversation with my little cousin, I think, if we were to give this company a real thought with clear vision and plan, things could be different. I don't know, but this is what I plan for 2010.

Anyhoos, just an update about my little girl, kecik now has an acute conjunctivities. Kesian kan? At first, my wife was having the same problem and was given medical leave of about 2 weeks. Last Tuesday I brought her to the eye clinic and a week later, I don't see much improvement of her eye's condition. And now apparently, I'm about to get it as well. Well, if I get caught with the infection, this year's raya will be a lot different. Hehehehe..



Have a good week ahead everyone.

To all, Selamat Hari Raya. Maaf Zahir & Batin

Al-fatiha....

My dearest auntie whom all of us called Aunty Nik passed at away at around 4pm yesterday at her home. She was 52. This news came as a shock to a majority of us as aunty nik was always known to us as a bubbly and cheerful person. For me personally, she was a very soft-spoken and friendly person. This was evident during her solat jenazah at Bukit Jelutong's mosque earlier today when a lot of people came over to the mosque to pay their last respect to her..

To uncle din, jojo, yen, nadzmi and cik mina, I'm sorry for your loss. It must be very hard on all of you but please know that all of us will be there for you when you need us...

Al-Fatiha...
