Well, tomorrow and Tuesday will be long days too but then, before I know it, I'm on leave already. :) Well, no grand plans with my leaves as it's just another family outing where...

I was very tired, sleepy and also having a slight headache this evening after work. I planned to go to the gym for a workout but I'm doubt I could do so. Thanks to insufficient sleep yesterday night where I can't sleep till almost 1am plus and woke up at 7am. It's a long day at work and I was real tired. It was an hour ride back home in the bus and...

It was a great day! When I awoke this morning, the sunshine was beautiful in the late morning  while my lovely family were getting ready for breakfast. It was not a hot day and yet not a cloudy day, just a nice bright morning which I'm sure it will lift up everyone's mood. Yes, I was the last to wake up but also the last to sleep yesterday night...LOL....

Just got an email that my Christian care group (CG) will stopped temporarily due to some personal reasons of the CG leader. After reading the email, I felt a tinge of sadness.

Finally heavy rain came today after days of humidity and stuffiness! Seeing that it was a cool day today where I actually felt the chill in the office, I decided to go for hot food after work. I was also not well today with a throat infection after having a Malay fried rice with fried chicken wing yesterday. The effects of the fried rice and chicken...

Well, most of time when we declined some appointments, sales talks, outings, dinners, lunches and etc; the 'no time' phrase was often used. I guess it's a convenient and polite way to turn down some sincere or business invitations. I guess it's allright to decline others but sometimes, we also often use the 'no time' excuse on ourselves. I realised...

The popular stone that greets you at the entrance I love nature, of late! I'm not sure why but I feel it's really good to escape the concrete jungle and get close to nature. Check out the southern most tip of Asia, not just Peninsula Malaysia, which is the Tg Piai National Park in Johor. Over here, you can see Indonesia and Singapore where your handphone...

Thus, we decided to stay at home and go around town. It...
