Life update

It felt so different since I return to Miri from Penang. Before returning to Penang, I find Miri quite an okay place to live, reasonable and edible food, slower paced life. But after CNY in Penang, I felt that I've missed the life on the fast lane. Good food, good entertainment and near to family (that minuses the freedom actually, lol)

My car front suspension noise now is getting worse. Perhaps it's time for repair, again. Found out that the car brakes aren't effective enough after driving only vios, a budget toyota. Harsh ride, bad NVH, terrible gear changes (auto unfortunately) and sluggish. But what could I expect for a 40k car with pretty low fuel consumption.

Visited Labuan for the second time. This time is a business visit to contractor site to familiarize on drilling and logging tools. I was so blur there as I'm from environmental team but luckily, colleagues and contractors clarified and explained me through. It was a good exposure and It actually helped me to decide/ consider which career path that I actually prefer.

What else can you relate to CNY other than food and card game. Had plenty of food since the eve of CNY. Quite a couple of card games at colleagues house. Won a couple but still could not recover the SAI LANG lost before the year of *roar.

Business as usual. Worked from 7 to 5 now.. not 4 any more. Happy with current life but could be better.

All I must say, it's a week well spent.

Leisure Driving

I've just returned from driving around Miri. From Miri Airport bypass to Miri-Pujut road. I stopped by a bakery to ease my stomach after paying so much attention on the road. (maybe it's the brunch, not the drive..lol) When I returned home. I felt so wasted. The road is not twisty and I wasn't even in a fun hot hatch. I was doing a spirited driving in a TOWN CAR! Boring. If I were to be relocated back to KL someday, bet that I would get a car that I could appreciate the thrill of driving up to Genting once in a while for a short getaway from the city. Well, Miri aint city... there's no my claimed 'getaway' for me here. Nevertheless, my current car is a decent one, a nippy zippy town car. Just that sometimes it serves the wrong purpose. Tried hard to cope with my demand. lol. I'm not abusive of my car. I'm more of touge style that drag. I guess 2 more tyres are ready to go. In short, the car is here to stay although it did not really meet my expectation. ...

Rediscovering Hobby

Just arrived hotel room, I decided to blog. 1 hour earlier, I felt so sleepy in my suite. no nice movie, no happenings. I had a simple dinner earlier due to uneasy stomach. So, I am bored and a little hungry and grabbed my car key and headed down to basement. I drove up to Hilltop area and down to town and then up to Luak and down to Pelita where I ended up with Char Kuey Teow in my stomach. It's fun to drive here at night. Empty, twisty roads, hilly slopes and smooth pavements and most importantly, I see no traffic police. That doesn't mean I'm speeding. I'm no speeder now. I'm more into appreciating conners and twists. I'm in a 1.3 Myvi and I was enjoying the ride. It could be better if the handling is more precise and encouraging. Power is not the priority for my ride now, it's the handling. I figured what I need to have in my Myvi. -A rear strut bar (I have one in front already) - GAB/ Eibach sports spring -15" light weight wheels - All round diffus...

Office in Weekend= Library in Unim

Spend some of my weekend hours in the office. Nostalgically, this scenario reminds me back at the days when I visited the library. Spent the 1st 30 mins fiddling books, and the remaining hours chatting with friend, surfing internet while waiting for friends call to go for a short (like 40 mins) tea break outside the university. And now, I'm waiting for colleagues' call to head for cinema.. tickets bought already anyway. Life in Miri is much more easy going than in KL. Office is just 5 minutes away from my home, cinema/ town 15 minutes from office. No jam, more time, but lack of crazy funny stuff to do. Hope my boss don't see this... ahaha..just kidding but hey, isn't today Saturday?!
