somewhere there ~~

Recorded at 12.4km/L. Usual driving without being petrol conscious.

Things got much better towards the end of Month 2 since start work. Started my 1st training which is an offshore survival training... Going for offshore visit in a week... Pay day in a week.... that's the best news... It's pathetic to think that there's nothing else to think about here in Miri except for things related to work...

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...

After using for a week, I could say I was contented with Celcom Broadband's performance. However, I just fear that my phone battery wouldn't last long since I use my cellphone as the modem. So, right now I'm sharing 1Mbps streamyx with my fellow housemates... How does it feel? Nah, just the same as Streamyx. Maybe Streamyx is not so good here...

Reminds me of the good university days. Staying in the hot room, surfing net while listening to music. This time, my speakers are hung instead. Lol and the cooler is a tad too wide for a netbook...

I've looked around for car accessory shops around Miri, 3 of it in total, but neither any carry myvi products such as bodykits and even sports springs. Cheap chrome accessory to bling your car in less than RM100 is very abundant but then again, that's not what I want. Damn, it seems that it is easier to live with the default look of the car. Maybe I'll hold my mod plan till my warranty ends next year. (still got a year to go)

I recently switch from Digi prepaid to Celcom postpaid. Neither did I know, it comes with free 30 days Celcom broadband. I realised this after a week of usage. So, another 3 more weeks to expiry. I returned Miri today and started surfing. This is what I get:- Reasonable speed I was amazed by the speed and surfing is not bad. But, an hour later, I felt that the speed gradually decreased. Youtube was not smooth, sometimes blogger.com failed to connect but my phone is heating up. I was a little disappointed. Should I insist on Celcom broadband or should I just share Streamyx with my fellow housemates. Anyway, there's 3 more weeks for decision making.
