Back to work

Life is very kind to me lately, well vacationsss wise. I had my vacation evey month starting December last year for 2 weeks, then a week in January n a week in February. Today I'm back to work from a week of intense mental and physical endurance to cut short :) from a softball tournament in Indonesia. It was really a very worthy trip, since it was about softball so cant speak much about it here, have to go to softball 44 to read more.



But life's never been this better. I hope it will last long, though of course some minor set backs lurking around, ( I can choose any words I like, right?) still...... my 2009 is more than what I anticipated.

My Labuan trip

The last time I went to Labuan was in 1992, went there with 2 friends but that was after I think 10 + yrs I didnt go there. Then after 17 yrs of no Labuan experience, I went there last week with also but different 2 friends. We stayed in...

A nice hotel. cost us RM$333 for a studio room with a kingsize bed, with extra bed and 3 breakfast. The breakfast for me was really nice with many choices, and the food I ate tastes delicious, again for my 4 yrs less younger taste buds. The pool was big, not deep. A good place to stay.

Anyway Labuan, as for me I dont know the difference. Is it developing fast or slow, I really dont know, not that I dont care but I really dont know, fortunately and not I managed to buy few things for the queen and the kids, but none for me, ooopppsss I lied, I managed to buy a toothbrush for myself.

There wasnt much to say about the trip apart from us swimming, shopping, kinda celebrating mimie's birthday, and oh I forgot about our dinner at Mawilla something, I didnt remember the name I thing seafood restaurant. I didnt bring my camera but Mimie did. The food were deliCious. We ordered fish, squids and the shark fin's soup. I know.... I know.... when the buying stop... the killing will stop.... but I can't resist the thinking of the taste of the soup. The restaurant is on a beach, so that dinner was really pleasant, but after that we walked back to our hotel, well we thought was near but actually was not, still... it was a good experience and ofcourse was a very good excersice. Can't say much about the trip, but all in all, for me it was a very good enjoying trip, hope my friends enjoyed it as much as I did, which I really did, and I am really looking forward for another Labuan trip, hope I cud make it as an annual event ;) if its alright with the queen. But I really want to go back to Labuan, next time hopefully purely on chillax no shopping and more Mawilla :) but cant promise no shark fin's soup :(

My luggage almost hit this pretty little lady, when I wanted to check something, while waiting for our ride home. To anyone who knows her, tell her I'm sorry, it was un-intentional and so sorry couldnt say it in front of you. My bad

Oh ya More images HERE as usual :)

I uploaded all the piccies we took using my camera.

25th January 2009

Two things happened that day, one was my Pwincess Fawah's birthday, her 4th. So it was just a day out for us. Well actually we took her to pick her own gifts which I think is a good idea. At least she knows whatever she wants, and lucky for me she picked a not very expensive gifts. Otherwise I'll regret my idea of asking her to choose her own gifts. Anyway she is 4 yrs old now, which also means I'm 4 yrs less younger ;) than at the time when she ws borned, which means I am closer to restart life, or is it just a reason to do silliy things again hehehehehe. Anyway didnt celebrate big on her birthday, just like our birthdays me and her siblings. Just giving her birthday presents and her aunt bought her a cake and my sister baked her the cupcakes.

Well it looked nice but dont tell my sis they tasted nice actually buuuut... for my taste buds..... too sweet, might be because of the peanut butter, well my taste buds are 4 yrs less younger right ......

Pwinchess Fawah with her birtday cake, the one wearing white cartoon shirt was the one respomsible to buy her the cake :) sensored due to her previous request :)

The cake for those who doesnt know how birthday cake looks like hahahahaaha

But the other thing that happened that day was, the arrival of my 2nd iPod touch. Yes my 2nd, since I can't find the first. A friend rang me, which actually the phone call that I was really expecting, he asked me to pick the itouch at his place which i'm glad to do. So I went to his place, received the itouch, drove home and restart the joy of having an itouch. Not the same feeling as the 1st one though, but the feeling of missing something soon disappeared. Then I took my camera and start taking pictures of it, since I didnt do with the 1st, which I thought the jinx that caused the 1st to be misplaced, well me being superstitious.

The 2nd iChepol's touch, loving every second with it, hope I wont misplace it.

How careless I can be....

Remember the present I bought for myself.... the 8Gb Ipod touch.... well I can no longer touch it. I successfully misplaced it last saturday. How I really hate that. I tried to track back what I've done that day, but since tha age factor disease effects me, so I forgot where I've put it, or left it, or took it or whatever. Been looking for it in the car or in the room, or in the house even until today, but still cannot touch it. I dont know how I managed to lose something useful like that.
It felt like I'm missing something, because I usually grab it as I woke up to check the weather or the score for the english premier league or google anything that crosses my mind.

But now it's gone, oh well I guess I have to wait for my friend to come back from Perth tomorrow, whom I asked to buy a new one for me.... :)

And today's lunch is......

Thats my lunchie hehehe, been so busy lately, not an excuse I know but yes really been so busy, after the holiday, straight to real job on standby, so to update isnt caused by lack of ideas nor subjects nor things I've done, just that the time and the lazyness been so overwhelming heheheh. Now back to the usuals again, well me and my small world, justg work and softball but lately been went out alot alone and with the queens and the princesses and the prince, who now know how to mimic anyone, and who likes to run around the shopping complex or hiding among the hanged clothes, and so on and so on. Well that is life isnt it? Btw I bought myself a 8Gb Ipod touch as my long overdue birthday gift which I usually buy myself every end of the year, which is in december usually since that is the month our salary bonus is paid wohoooo. oh well I've bought an Ipod video last time, so basically the Itouch is more for gaming as an alternative to the PSP. Oh well got to run, work again.........

For He has returned safely....

Alhamdulillah he is now safe home, last saturday. Few tears shed, started by my nephew, which my sisters, nephews and nieces followed soon after. Well I shed few of mine too, well tears of joy right, who doesnt but I managed to control myself, which was quite hard actually since I was the one who drove them home and so unfortunately cant see him as I dropped them at the departure when they wanted to leave.....

So yes it was really quite hard to control, added by my dad cried in my car because he was happy to return home and he remembered about my brother's father-in-law who passed away early that morning.

(AL-FATIHAH.... May Allah blessed him and may he rest peacefully... Amin..... )

So yes, my dad cried over that too, because my brother's father-in-law (in the wheel chair)managed to see my dad before my dad left for Mekah and he also planned to see my dad after the pilgrimage, but Allah loves him more, so he passed away that early morning. So yes my dad mentioned that in my car when I drove him home. So yes its really hard for me to control my emotion, and shedding few tears wont make me lose my manhood right.....

Anyway at the airport... there were thousands of people, I dont mind the adults, but children....???? I didnt get it. how they bother to bring their kid/s along, when even I cant stand the heat. I was sweaty, my shirt was wet and if I throw my shirt in the river... most probably the fishes will be floating dead hehehehehehe. But yes we were all anxious waiting for our loved ones return home safe.....

But this i dont really get it. These two ladies were the unlucky ones to be my example, well a lot more passed this two closely parked vehicles where the spaces was really tight there were even people lifted their big luggage bag thru that tight space but didnt bother to go to the front of the ford transit or to the back of the ambulance, which is easier for them. Is it ignorant or lazyness? welll I dont know exactly.

Oh well forget them, more images here
