ManMeng's Lifepad

Hello Singapore

It has been a while that I’m literally sit down and talk to a person in real life. Well, anyway the trip down to the land of water lion proved that there is much more thing I have to learn about life? And also it almost feels like a person like me can’t complain in life and have the feeling of “fear” even though I’m travelling alone. I guess this has been one of the stunt I pulled off after the one from Shanghai. Luckily this time around, my trip to SG is far more breezier than how it was USED to be back in 2004. It was hell back then. Basically something that I suppose to complete within the 2 week stay using Social Travel Pass (White Card) in SG.

Went to Klang bus station and took the usual route down to JB/SG. Costs me around RM35. And of course, I suppose to expect an early trip from 8am onwards, but they said that only 11AM will be the first ride. And so on.

Riding down south

And here I am. Reached at approximately 6:30 P.M. Cool eh? With all those continous stopping. 6 hours is what they can take you.

Reliving The Past?

It has been a distant past since my last post here. Much of lot of thing has happened. And some didn’t. 2007 was like a, rush of flying dagger to my throat.
A summary should be done earlier but I’ve only found some peace of mind and motivation to write it all up now. Perhaps throughout this 4 month of absense as a freelancer and not fulltime worker. I have really learnt a lot to survive on my own, working on projects on my own. Bigger responsibility? Perhaps not, but I guess I need to be aware of every single minute I spend.

I’m not even sure what will 2008 be for me. Exciting? Challenging? Scary? Who knows.

But I have learnt indefinitely that there is always a cause and effect for every action taken, and at times we will always wonder if it’s the right choice made. I hope I did the right one.

Been a rainy season lately, and this is just right outside Pavillion.

Some crazy stunt me and tuckloong pulled off during our trip to Singapore Design Festival.

Some souvenir got for myself.

Perhaps I should start drawing massively.

And some treat for friends.

Overloaded with present it seems.

Celebrating with family and relatives

Genting is cozy as always.

And snuffing a cup of hot chocolate does help at this time.

I’ve lost track when was the last time I was with my family member for an outing. Cooking madness. Lots of food stuffing.

Perhaps it’s one of the good cool time I can take off to spend with relatives that I have not seen for years

That’s my brother’s son, my dad’s grandson, my mom’s grandson and my ?

He’s adorable

Xmas in Malaysia

Some really awesome toy shop at Gardens, Mid Valley, though Garden itself is disappointing to me, but this shop proved to be really something. Lots of Otaku toy inside as well!

SHOOT DA BUUULL!!!

Deja Vu?

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I have grown, one year older.

Revving Life

It has been almost 2 month I’m back from China. That’s a fucking fast time to past. Nothing has changed since then. Getting work on and off without a proper time. Waking up late. Being anti-productive. I guess? But of course travelling around the city has been a habit. Still I have some to share with you.

First would be this magical drink. Some say it’s alcohol, and I realized it’s sibling are Sake. Or kinda similar to that.  A gift from Tsuqi. Thanks a lot and I’m loving it. In fact, addicted to it’s smell and taste.

One sip is all it takes and you’re hooked!

Bye gadget Bye!

What time is it? It’s past midnight.

And I was about to say goodbye to this lonesome friend.

Sold! And it’s still in a very nice box. Humming The Killer’s song now…la la la la…MrrrrRrrR brRriighttsidddeeee

Goodbye my friend~

It has been a shortlived experience but it’s really fulfilling. A great phone nevertheless.

Never thought of owning it in the first place. And god, the price is…****!

May we ever see each other again. Oh okay, want a summary? It’s really a great….ph…..POD!…i mean ipoD!. The most legendary and useful one ever made. Built in wifi, built in video player, built in BROWSER FULLY FKING FUNCTIONAL!@#!@# and it feels like holding a macbook micro! And the plus point is ? It lets you make phone call! Oh why you ask it’s not the phone function in the first place? That is because that could be more other products out there can outwit this with that ability only. But for a full-fking-functional-smart-organizer, this is way to go. Style – 99points out of 10 Design -100 points out of 99. Of course as for the camera, take it as a freebies, don’t mention it. But the potential of this thing is endless, giving the fact that there is dozens of apps coming out daily. And it’s touchscreen you mutha!!!***!*!*

Anyway enough whining, it’s really a great iPod. ever. Sold!

Fleeeeeeeeee Market

Ever thought to visit friends selling designer stuff? The Curve? There’s another place. Plaza Mont Kiara.

Probably a cool place to hangout during the weekend. Check em out!

[Epilogue] Bye Shanghai

This is more or less to wrap up my last words on the trip to this interesting land of Chinese. A month back. In the eye of my W850i. Here’s some photos relating to it.

I was suppose to get a Visa for me to travel into China and I’ll have to get it in the embassy.

Who the hell even knows that the Myammarian had rally on that day as well!

I gave up and went on to Pavillion to have a look.

Impressive as always…until I saw those building in Shanghai. ROFL.

It was really a big hassle to travel back and forth to Ampang for this Visa thing. After applying it in the morning . Which they’ll close down the application after 12PM. You’ll need to wait for it to complete, if on the same day, collect at 3:30P.M…with extra charges.

Fast Forward

Look that’s a cat!

It’s a Persian Cat. You won’t able to find any ordinary cat there. Because…I don’t even know why. This cat has a special feature on its eye, one blue one yellow?

Human Kiap Human

A very unfortunate aka funny event ? It appeared that the train was malfunction from moving due to the whole district is out of eletricity.

I didn’t know until I go down inside the train to find it’s fillign packed with human.

Even the girls doesn’t care.

And I decided to leave the train and go for a taxi instead.

No lights.

Everyone’s walking and that really shows how important is that train everyday.

But after like 10 minutes perhaps? I called up to Hoven and he told me the eletricity is back. Damn.

Random photos. Andy Lau’s concert.

This is the building where we surveyed for iPhone’s price. Appearantly it sells around 4100 RMB, which approximately around 1.9K RM? Yes, the whole building is selling mobile phone only!

Some fast food centre. On the right are the Cold-food, don’t ask me why, it seems like they like to serve this kind of dish which are taken directly from fridge itself.

Toothpick?

Inside the train

For a haircut. Last day in Shanghai.

The only photo I had while I’m at The Bund (Wai-Tan). Stupid me erased all the photo I took with my iPhone.

Sweet Home?

Reunion with old friends.

Baseball time. HOMERUN!

KLCC. Well, it appears that their security is pretty, tight?

aw…my nephew.

From the top of Level 51?

Spring Cleaning

Keyboard is…nasty.

And some random running back to home after that. Till then. See you again China. Miss the time back then.

[Part 4] Shanghai, Bye?

Following from the previous post, Hoven and me was running around the town surveying for latest iPhone prices from around different shops and we stumbled back to Gang’Hui again.

And there’s a show, a runway.
