Hello everyone, it has been a week and I am so excited. No no, it’s not about work, but something else and something that I rarely mention in this blog.

Hmm, so what are the 3 items I bought?

Random notes

Am I afraid of high notes? Of course I am afraid. What sane man is not?

Recently, I am pretty sure that quite a number of residents in Penang Island (and perhaps around Malaysia) complains bout the weather and I don’t deny it, it is very hot.

This photo makes me feel hot

Despite this hot weather, there is one benefit in my opinion, it slowly make people realize that we are the cause of the pollution, basically we cant blame the people who invents cause when they invent, they only think of solving a problem and usually the consequence of their solution is not in their top priority. So instead of pointing fingers, we should take the initiative to change. And talking bout this, I do think that part of Avatar success (besides the mind boggling computer graphics) is part that it shows how human nature truly is and that if we don’t change, our current condition will be much worse.

On a completely unrelated note, if you like to taste medicine then the 7 Eleven Coke Slurpee is definitely for you. I had to throw it after drinking half way, it was okay at first but gets terrible in the end and thank goodness I bought the smallest cup.

Nothing much today and that will be all.

Tick Tock Tick Tock

Hey everyone, nothing much going on lately except I am remarkably busy with my daily work. Finally got a time of my own and decided to blog, after much neglect.

As you all know, I am a Starbucks person, if I need a place to do my work for a couple of hours with comfortable seating and internet (beside the office of course) it will most likely be Starbucks.

Since we are in the topic of Starbucks, let me share some photos of my most recent Starbucks.

I love to see these lines when they are formed

Almost finished

Anyway, can anyone confirm with me if Starbucks has some kind of agreement with Borders? Cause all the Borders I’ve visited so far, there seem to be a Starbucks in the bookstore.

That will be all and Good Night!
