dodo’s island

A couple of weeks ago, my company had a trip to Pangkor Island (much nicer than dodo island). Decided to join it. Left at around 7am on a Saturday morning. We had a ferry at 11 am to catch, with a stop for breakfast along the way. After a brief stop, we decided to put the pedal to the metal (we’re running out of time). Using rural back roads, speeds of above 170km/h was not uncommon. I was in a convoy of 4 cars, and we managed to make it with 5 minutes to spare. Anyway, here’s a  pic I took of Pangkor.

My company also had a lucky draw event there, where the first prize was an LCD tv. Before the trip, I remember mentioning to some of my collegues that I didn’t want the LCD tv, but I dont mind getting the Ikea vouchers. And guess what, I did get the Ikea vouchers, all RM 1000 bux of it! Woohoo. But now, I dont have the faintest idea of what to get.

So, the next weekend, I was off to Ikea with a friend, and here are some of the items I considered.

me and my friend(lol)

In the end, I spent about RM400 bux, so more shopping to come!

It’s been a while that I’ve updated. Been busy with my job, late nights (sometimes up to 4am), and a general lack of things to write. Anyway, just came back from dinner at Curve with a friend, who shall remain nameless at this point in time (you know who you are). I’ve always said that I would like to try a ciggy at least once before I die, and tonight, I did. Twice. Haha.

Anyway, met up with Pev in Ikano after dinner. I’ve been looking for a camera lately, my current one is approaching 4 years old, and I need to replace it. Been looking at the Canon S5 (costs RM 1.8k at launch). Saw it priced at 1.3k last week in 1U, but Pev called me up and said they are selling it cheaper in Ikano (some promo by Harvey Norman). So I got my self this, for RM 1199, witha huge tripod, 4GB card, screen protector and 2 bags. Retail therapy, works everytime.
