Kundasang, Here We Come!
February 1st, 2012Another ad-hoc plan. We’re off to Kundasang this Saturday! Decided on that yesterday afternoon, paid for the accomodation and yes, we will be there come Saturday! A short getaway but it would be great for our minds indeed.
While we were looking for accommodation yesterday, having water heater for shower was really important! Going berserk thinking of the ice cold water to shower SHOULD the chalet have no hot shower installed. Thank goodness, there is! Since we are in tight budget this time, we can say goodbye to looking for a place with a pool. We would have been able to try out any pools that have rheem pool heaters installed, but it’s okay. Next time maybe.
We are excited, that much I can tell you!

Caffeine Fix
January 30th, 2012I have always been a coffee lover, but somehow, with the beginning of this year 2012 – my need for caffeine fix has accelerated a hundredfold! I just have to have the coffee, or else I’d be drinking my other favourite, Coca-Cola. I have these serious craving for coffee that I was thinking of getting myself one of those bunn coffee filters and buys the freshly grounded coffee beans instead of the instant ones.
However, I guess this year is really a good year for me, as I keep on getting good news on top of another. Praise the Lord for that, and I do hope that it keeps on going. The recent great news is that the boss is getting the coffee machine for the office too and not only for the resort! So there, we are going to get good coffee in the office too. There’s no need for me to leave the office to get those wonderful coffee with great aromas from across the road. Not to mention, eliminating another area for expenses and saving it up for my travel plan instead.

No More Excuses…
January 17th, 2012I used to blog frequently, almost daily when I first started blogging. Then I find myself lacking the time to do so, then it’s the horrible internet connection at home.
With all the gadgets around nowadays and mobile internet, this shouldn’t be an excuse anymore. At least in my case, it’s shouldn’t. Having both an iPhone and a Blackberry, both with data plan too, I should be able to blog on the go. In fact, I am actually blogging from my Blackberry this very instance.
The truth is, it’s not all these drawbacks that kept me from blogging, but rather, the flow of ideas, creativity. Things worth blogging about. A long season of blogger’s block!
I know what I need though. Traveling. Yes, that. The top of list of things to do, among others.

Holey Roads!
January 16th, 2012The culverts installation at the stretch of road along Penampang Bypass takes forever to complete, hence ruining the road in the process too. So yes, there are now holey roads! I find it really annoying, and also it is dangerous to motorists. The night before I had to leave for Tawau, we hit a hole and I knew it was bad news. Checked the tyres, they looked fine. Next morning, bam! A flat tyre and I had to rush to the airport. So my partner in crime just drove me off to the airport with a flat tyre, had to go really slow though.
Luckily the bearings was not affected by that incident. I saw another car on the side of the road with two guys changing the tyre. Same area where we hit the hole. So I guess they were too, unfortunate. Just hoping, with this dry and scorching hot weather nowadays, those people speed up their work and get the roads in better shape soon!
