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. Well, the majority (weekday uses) wins.

Saba Orchard Visit

Joined a group of colleagues out for durian feast @ Saba Orchard last weekend. Located next to Lambir national park means it's somewhere Miri country side and took around 30-40 minutes drive. Everyone gathered at Lambir National Park entrance before being 'escorted' by brother of orchard owner who also happens to be Shell staff. The owner himself was also Shell ex-staff. Man I began to feel that everything here in Miri is about Shell....Lol How big is it? Circa 40 acre but we ventured maybe just 10 acre of it. Waiting @ Orchard Entrance The Shell influence is present even in the orchard. ' Life Saving Rules ' was briefed by the orchard owner, Mr Austin. Maybe HSSE should consider adopting the 13th Life Saving Rules, 'do not walk below dangling spiky object aka durian'. Hope I'm not being lame here. 13th Life Saving Rules: Do not walk below hanging durians Still paiseh, everyone waiting for the 1st one to start eating...lol.. kidding There's someone d...

easier said than done..

A recent conversation with a friend made me realise there are so much things, when said is ideal, when done might turn out to be less pleasant. Well of course one cannot run away from continuously managing an activity or action so that it does not turn ugly at all. Continuous management is what human tend to call, commitment. And who the hell made that word up, I've missed an M the first time I wrote it! As far as I lived to write this post today, I am 'proud' to still not tied down by the human-termed 'commitment'. I can have all the 365 days for myself, all my earnings for myself (of course I voluntarily treat my family which made me happy, and that's what I do for myself too) and all the time for myself. I can safely assume that I have almost zero commitment. Probably as the level of maturity heightens with age, responsibility and commitment come into play naturally. Not sure if from zero to hero sounds great when it is about commitment to everyone but I gues...

are you happy with your job

Are you happy with your job? Do you find yourself sighing or maybe swearing every morning you spread your arms waking up? Do you already feel sad on Sunday when you need to iron your clothes? And do you stare at the wall by your bed before sleeping on Sunday and mumbled 'here we go again'? I have been self demotivated at times thinking about my career. As a young and active graduate, I am impatient, eager, charged and so wanting to do something much more challenging in the working world. However, the role that I am assigned currently is a little reserved and pace keeping. I find myself dissatisfied for picking up things much slower than anyone else, even time catches up on me. It's a year already. I'm giving myself another period of time for the hope that things will change, get better or perhaps favors me. I admit I may be over ambitious at times but please don't kill it, I want to set to be somebody someday although I may not have the capability for such achieveme...
