261208-My first online transaction......with ebay- Dakota Star-Together alone

Today is a sunny day.....my laptop having some problem and my company technician just finished fixing it...i was taking nap at home when he call me up...have to back office just to take my laptop...duno why today weather so hot..year ends should be chilling ma...expect some rain and cold wind..haha

I have just done my first online transaction in my life...buying in ebay...i always wanted to purchase on9, but afraid of credit card fraud bz i'm not very confidence in buying on9 as this trend is not that popular in malaysia. I seldom heard people around me do on9 transaction although this is quite popular in other countries like Taiwan and Spore. I been struggling for some time..me myself dunno how to make the first move..



However, opportunity comes in when i wanted to buy this EP, TOGETHER ALONE from the group dakota star...http://www.dakotastar.net/en/disc/ The album was released back in 2006, I really have difficullty in finding the ablum in msia. I have search through a lot of CD stores in major mall in Klang Valley and KL, been to flea market, 2nd hand CD store and also petaling street but could not find it and some of my kind frens have been helping me to search but could not find it..really wanted to said a BIG TQ to them...frens from msia, HK & Spore..... Really appreaciate for their helpfullness..

I even send out a mass email to more than 1100 plus people in friendster and facebook..but nevertheless...stil an empty hope...finally, my net fren confirm vf me that Universal music did not import the CD to msia..he got a fren in the record company..i really giving up hope liao until i saw it being on sale in ebay....being a person never buy on9 b4, i seek help from lot of people to guide me in creating an account vf ebay to register for paypall...Finally, today, i took my courage to buy the EP from ebay..mmmm...the seller from Australia, might takes around 2 weeks to deliver to Msia..hope can get it ASAP...haha

Last nite back late from the trips..extremely tired and exhausted..and fell sick ored...now resting at home...however, overall, it is a fun, enjoyable and educational trips...hopefully can join the next trips...

081108-DEPARTURE DAY
At 6.30AM, we gathered at office...breakfast was meehoon...ate at the bus..my colleagues and i was tired yet was happy for the start of the journey...along the way, we stopped at resting area...saws lot of unique fruits and wonder what is that...






it took ard 4 hours driving to reach Kuala Gula, Perak...it seems like a hidden town..was so deep inside.....A typical fishing village......everthing was fine there....except there are too much of bull shit..it was everywhere as the bull was let loose...u can sight it in school, housing area, shoplot, all the place....





The 1st destination is charcoal factory; a local tourist guide brief us and shows us the charcoal..now i knw how to differentiate a good quality vs bad.....how it make and its benefit...never thought charcoal have so much of benefits...


*Good quality of charchoal, doesn't it look like a dark chocholate cake? haha

the biggest export is to Japan..cz of its steel industry and japanese like bbq....lot of funny real life stories were shared...Nxt we went to Hua Seng temple..a big and popular tourist spot, there even showcase the statues of 18 level of hell...so scary...being a buddhist, the 1st thg when i stepped into a temple is to pray...everyone were focusing on the briefing while me was busy wtih praying..haha




We then have our lunch before proceeds to boat ride along river estuaries and birdwatching...it is an hour ride..i tried my hands at the wheel and also catched some cockerel..first time do fishing...seems difficult at beginning..but with observation and practice...no problem...hehe...




feel peace and relax along the ride...the wind of the sea make me calm...feel happy..seeing so much of beautiful species of birds....really glad being there..no pressure....really like the environment & the natural habitat...



The seafood dinner is great...being in fishing village..lot of fresh seafood were served..so yummy and full..nxt, heads to briefing and slideshow before walking at the forest for 2km for fireflies watching and wildlife spotting...so scary walked into the jungle...did not bring my torchlight...the land was wet...




The fireflies there was lesser than Kuala Selangor...an endangered species...i dared myself to put a puppa on my hands as the tour guide as me to try..at 1st i was reluctant...feel scary n geli..but after deep thinking..decided to try it as if let go this chances, duno when i will have it again...in msia, only Kuala Selangor and Kuala Gula can watched fireflies...feel so hot after comes out frm jungle...thus a group of us went to a nearby stall to eat ice kacang...





091108-BACK TO KL

i don't have a good slept last nite, less than 2 hours, so tired..after get up and took my breakfast..hv to proceeds to mangrove trail walk...it is a sunny days....really tired...the mangrove forest was next to the sea...a nice morning view of the sea...really like being in a natural environment and learn about flora and fauna at mangrove ecosystem.




the place so peaceful and the food price was so cheap...a plate of nasi goreng, bihun..only costs RM2...cant get this in city area....We next heads to Water birds' interpretation center before proceeds to belacan factory....bought some belacan for my family, relatives and frens..freshly make belacan....saw the belacan processing and packaging process..now i knw how to make...the ingredient are juz water, salt and dried shrimp....




I have asked the tour guide if can stop us at ipoh 2 buy some local snack..the journey around 1.5 hours from the town..they drove us to a tourist spot....ie an expensive place....some snack even more costly than those sell in KL....juz buy some since already there...long time did not go Ipoh..my dad hometown..



I'm really proud and glad to be part of this company trips...i have learns a lot...to protect the environment, the animals, birds, lot of knowledge that money cant buy and you can't find in a book....i chat a lot vf the local guide, a middle age man...and i definitely learn a lot of him...


Never thought there are more than 10,000 species of birds and he can differntiate if the crab is single, dating,going to get married, or married...birds that are loyal and disloyal to loves and lot more..indeed an interesting place to visit....STRICTLY for people who can go under the hot sun and loves the environment....

051108-A sudden expediation...

2dy when i log on to my pc....saw an intranet event...volunteer needed!!!....as msia environmetal NGO invites my company to we care we share visits to Kuala Gula, Perak(never heard on this place also)..it is a 2 days 1 night trips which falls on 8-9 Nov..since only limited to 20 participant(out of more than 1000++ staff), without delay, i immediately email to the organizer to check on the availability n send a mass email to my colleagues, surveying on who are interested to go....and i receives good response....BUT demand> supply...only left 2 seats and i'm going with 1 of them....

The purpose of the trips is for the staff to have deeper appreaciation of nature and values and functions of natural ecosystem, understanding of rural communities and indigenous peoples' way of life and etc....I always keen on this type of educational trips....really long time did not take part ...during secondary school, i went at least 1-2 times in a year but moving to college and uni, can't really find times and most important is most of my frens prefer to spend a day in cinema, karaoke, shopping and do girlie stuff than get dirty and hot in the jungle....thus, i really thirlled when i able to take part cz i really wanted this long long time; to get rid of the hustle of city and leaves behind all sort of problem...finding peace and create awareness on the nature and learn more on flora and fauna but the most important is to appreaciate more on what God created...ie. the environment...eagerly waiting for that...juz less than 2 days to prepares for the trips....

031008-Unlucky monday blues

Today, as normal working people, i was suffering from monday blues also...whole day like blur blur and demotiaved to work, kept looking at the time..countdown to end my job.....during my lunch hour, the string of my shoes was stripped off( ie.

This morn when i carrying my backpack to work, my sis said i look so cute, like a school kid wearing a bag to school. Within a few minutes, my dad said the same thing also....maybe they long time did not see me carrying this kind of bag....what to do...this bag is my laptop bag ma...i told them i always look cute 1....er...perasaan...haha.....

This week seems to be busy. Almost everyday also have meeting. tomorrow also got meeting but it seems a scary one as many people will be attending and i will be the main person who need to answer question...sort of.....although new in the job, but must be prepare to go meeting, if not, will get shoot back...got extend the invitation to my predesessor, haha...to help out if people ask too complicated question. The most serious mistakes are not being made as a result of wrong answer. The trully dangerous thing is asking the wrong questions. Have to take note on this.......
