Phuket - Day 2

The second day of our trip started with a morning call at 7.30am. The hotel provided us with nice breakfast. After breakfast, we headed off to Phang Nga Bay to visit the James Bond's Island. James Bond Island, known originally and locally as Ko Tapu or Nail Island, found fame through the 1974 Bond film "The Man with the Golden Gun". The film starred Roger Moore and Christopher Lee has turned the previously unknown Phang Nga Bay into a major tourist attraction.

After walking around the island, cam whoring at the beautiful sceneries, we headed off to Panyee Floating Restaurant for lunch. Here we were served with seafood and the dessert was pineapple. Pineapples are amazingly delicious in Thailand. I can't help but ate many pieces. The Thai cuisine here tasted normal and I seriously thought Malaysian Thai cuisine is much nicer.

After lunch we were sent back to hotel. We had a rest before going out for dinner. That night we agreed on a massage session at May-may's massage center after dinner. All 10 of us chose the traditional Thai massage at 500Baht/2 hours per person. The massage was quite good as we were all exhausted from hectic working life. I heard my bones and joints giving cracking sounds every time the masseur gave a push or turn. After the massage, all of us felt rejuvenated and continued shopping around the area.

We walked for sometime before I started to feel a burning sensation in my stomach. I thought it might be the effects from the massage I had earlier. But the pain grew from bad to worse and I decided to get back to hotel for a rest. The pain just didn't go away, and I started throwing up after that. I had food poisoning. Thinking that the pain will go away after some rest was proven wrong. I had a whole sleepless night vomiting every single drop of water in my stomach. I was really worry bout my condition as we were scheduled to enjoy snorkeling at Phi Phi Island the following day.

W.O.T.P.

10th of November 2012, the day we booked our first property together as husband and wife. It was indeed a huge milestone after we signed our ROM papers. This is a luxury condominium developed by Selangor Dredging Berhad and it's located at Bandar Tun Hussein Onn, Batu 9, Cheras Selatan. This is a very interesting development because it is situated on 8.9 acres of Freehold land with 4.2 acres of landscaped environment (Yes, half of the development is actually greenery!) The unit built-up range between 916 sq. ft. to 4,311 sq. ft. and sold for about RM450 - RM680 per square feet.  We bought a unit at Block C which is lowest block on the left.

What am I?

It has been some time since I last updated this blog. Heaps of stuff happened and I just had the time to pull a break and evaluate the events that happened to me in the past 1 month. I've changed my job, moving into sales line is not an easy decision to make. I was doubtful with myself until I really come on board. Perhaps it may be too soon to tell where I stand in this job, but I was really thankful that my current boss gave me an insight of myself. We had sessions to understand what are our temperament. This is something that govern what kind of job that fits us. Apparently I am an "Artisan" after few rounds of personality tests. An artisan loves freedom, leads by taking action, seeks to have impact and variation, needs appreciation, a risk taker, problem solver and an opportunist. When I read the full description bout what I am, I immediately understand why I felt in constraint and bored working in the manufacturing line. I am just not that type of person that falls i...

Life

I'll be quarter a century old in a day. In a day's time my birthday would come, and most probably would just simply go. Didn't expect much this year, or maybe age has certain impact on me. I'll be 25 soon. This is so alarming scary, time just flew too fast. Everything changes. I looked like awfully nerdy 3 years ago when I was still in UPM. I've started working one year ago, this was the fastest one year in my life. Life has been so committed to work and work, I couldn't realise time flew across and here I am. Evaluating what I've done over the past 1 year. I've learnt many many things, both in life and in work. From an ordinary 2nd upper graduate to now a project engineer. Nothing big achieved but I felt contented, at least I'm working towards my goal. It's just kinda overwhelming to think back times, was so excited on the 1st day of kindy, was so nervous going into primary school compound, was so trilled to step into secondary school, was so c...
