Again, being the consultant that gets to travel to 'glamorous' (notice the sarcasm, and probably the incorrect spelling) places, today I find myself the rather fun task of driving me and my colleagues to Kuantan for a meeting.
Woke up and picked up Ajit from SS15, and headed to office, where it is nearly empty, with everyone jetting off somewhere for their projects. Picked up the boss and headed to Kuantan.
I must say it was a good drive. Gave my car a chance to stretch its legs over the long distance. A minor niggle is the fact that the tires were not as smooth as before once i reach a certain speed, which i will not disclose in this blog for fear of persecution. However, after exceeding a certain speed again, the tyres become smooth as usual. Weird, but true. Ajit recomended his friend's shop in SS14 for high speed balancing, so i think i should give it a try before i send my car to the boys at AB.
Meeting went fine, very technical with lots of code. Confusing for simpletons like me.
Drove back the afternoon and again, same problems with tyres. But didnt drive too fast back as the road was totally dark.
Im thinking Kuantan is nearly cool. It doesnt warrant its entry into the cool-list yet, but i think i need more than a daytrip to make a more informed judgment. So far, my list (always open for debates by the way) are as follows
Cool Cities
KL (of course)
Penang
Melaka
Nearly Cool (Could do Better)
Kuantan
Uncool but Ok-lah
Labuan
Dead
Perlis
Bandar Sri Begawan
Shah Alam
More elaboration will be made later. Im tired! Ciao!

Life - One Week at a Time
What a week I've had.
Fresh from my relaxing (or shall I say 'renewal') holiday in Langkawi, which recharged my batteries and strenghtened whatever I have left in my body, it was a case of 'another day, another aeroplane' for me.
Flew back to Perlis (Kedah actually, and taxi-ed it up to Kangar), and met with the Pengarah for a meeting session for our draft final report. Drove back down and worked on it for a few hours whilst waiting for our flight back.
Tiring, and worse is to come.
Scheduling dates, and an angry civil servant ensued, which really drained whatever that is left of me. Now I'm glad the week has passed, but now im dreading the coming week. Who knows what' going to happen. More stress? More work?
Well, I'd have to say that Life is what you make of it. If you make it stressful and worrisome, its going to end up like that. If you make it into what / where you want it to be, then most times out of ten it will turn out alright.
I made many new years resolutions, maybe its time I actually followed up on them.
Here's to a new week.
Or maybe just same ol' shit, but different perspective.
