Advertisement break!
Quick summary of my life in the VERY recent past: work, food, exercise, more food, even more food, and boredom. Amidst all that, I've been getting very good opportunities to hangout with my old friends in Klang.
However, I must also admit that I've been losing touch with other circles of friends elsewhere. It kinda boils down to an issue of convenience. Work is tiring, and lately it is just hard to go the extra mile to meet them. Not that I don't want to... on the contrary, I would love to meet 'em. It just kinda defeats the purpose if I'm gonna end up meeting them in a half-knocked-out mood, zombified from the hustle-and-bustle of the days. I'm still figuring out the means to stabilize work and social life. Let's just hope it won't take too long.
... and June is still a long way away. Did I mention that there's a trip in the coming month? I did? Oh.. I just skipped over the details :P Long story short: Lang Tengah, 4d3n. I can't wait for it... I'm addicted to holidays now... but then again, who isn't.
Ok, gotta go now. Can't think of anything else to drop into this post. It started off without a real theme, and I shall end it as that. Adios~

Ni men hao ma?
I'm extremely sorry for the serious lack of updates to this blog. Not that I was abandoning it, but somehow the 'mood' to write kinda dwindled amidst the hustle-and-bustle of juggling business and.. er.. more business :P And yes, if this blog were a room, it probly would be filthy with dust and cobwebs now, haha.
Well, considering that the last post was waaaaay back in early January, there is a LOT to say and show. It however requires a whole lot of walking down memory lane and digging up the photos to go with 'em. To kick off a series of updates, this post shall be a Table of Contents to the *hopefully* upcoming updates :P Motivation's is a commodity, ya know.
In short, I have gone on 3 very different trips in the past 4 months, and there is an upcoming trip in June that will make it an average of one trip every 2 months. Not bad, 2007 is *grin*. Here goes, in chronological order, the major events that have occured since January!
Kota Kinabalu, Sabah
January 24th-31st, 2007
Yup, a 1-week vacation. The longest I've ever had since university days, and probably the most adventurous trip ever thus far for me (and my vacation comrades). Summary of major events on this trip:
- Island hopping + snorkelling
- Para-sailing!
- Hike up Mount Kinabalu! All the way~
- Hot springs
- White water rafting (woohoo!)
- Full body massage (I bet you went 'huh!?)
Endau Rompin, Pahang
March 23rd-25th, 2007
This was my company's annual trip. Last year was to Langkawi, but this year we took on a team-building package to the State Forest Reserve of Pahang; Endau Rompin. Since its mainly a team-building event, suffice to say there were quite a number of activities. So, being my lazy self, I shall reserve the details for the actual post at a later time.
And the final trip that happened just 3 weeks ago...
Tokyo, Japan
April 10th-17th, 2007
Before anyone goes all excited (or envious?), let me clear some facts first.
a. This was a business trip
b. The trip spanned over a weekend... so that was for leisure :P
There is LOADS to talk about this trip because it marked a remarkable number of 'firsts' in my life. And yes, this was why the '2nd week of April' update promise I made to a certain friend kinda got sidelined :P Stay tuned for a formal update on this. By the way. this trip has officially motivated me to plan on getting myself my very own camera. As of now, I'm still without a proper camera... but who knows. Maybe by the time I go on another trip... hehe.
Alrighty, hope that was enough of a preview. Now let me go sort out the photos and prepare for future updates. Adios~
