~WOOT!! Not enough with just a pair of tickets, I’ve decided to enter Mei Fen’s name in it too, and guess what? She also won the tickets! We are so going to catch the movie! We’re allowed to choose either Sunway or KLCC. Of course we choose Sunway since it’s nearer to us. […]

We were there on Saturday night too to catch the fireworks, but unfortunately by the time we reached there, the fireworks was already starting! So did not take any pictures that night. We went there again very very early in the morning, the entire family. Needless to say, the kids were excited! Even though we […]

How many of you remember taking a photo, only to find out that the photo turned out bad due to incorrect exposure?

Even though in the world of digital photography where the camera decides everything for you, things […]
Happy DongZhi, or in chinese, 冬至快乐! It’s amazing now that you think about it, the ancient chinese calculated this annual path of the sun which coincides with the winter solstice.

Karmic Koala vs Windows 7

My first impression of Windows 7 was good. Coming from a Windows XP environment, W7 proves to be a refreshing change in terms of speed and looks. Perhaps this is really not a fair comparison. The aging XP was really quite bloated with all the softwares I installed. Being an easily infested little weakling, XP […]

Stupid beast this MBR (master boot record) is from Windows. Even in its 7th reincarnation, MBR still bugs me. I am not a big fan of Windows, but I still find myself going back to Windows. And Windows 7 looks more attractive and sexier than XP by a mile! Anyway why do I bother about […]

Remember my Wira that I have converted to NGV over a year ago? Yes, over a year ago. I keep a record of how much I have traveled and the amount that I refueled so that I can gauge how much I have used and how much I saved compared to using petrol. I wanted to know […]
