I 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.

The 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!

“Kak BB Ada BB”. That’s what my sister said when I first WhatsApp the picture of the following item to them in the group chat.

Blackberry Curve 9300, not the latest but still I am grateful

A Blackberry, a.k.a BB in short. I am also known as Bibie, in short BB amongst families and close friends. So my sister said it’s funny when she says that. Indeed it is! I have always wanted to try out a Blackberry phone, and finally I have one in my hands. Thanks to my ever so nice and generous boss! I am blessed, I know that. But this also means that I have to maintain or even better, keep on improving in my daily tasks at work. We do not want to disappoint someone who is so nice, do we? Nor do I want to lose this wonderful job!

I have already tried out a few Blackberrys before getting this, and still I love my iPhone much much better. I am more of a touch screen person. Maybe with the higher end model of Blackberrys. Come to think of it, the operating system would be the same, and it is indeed a work/business phones, not so in term of entertainments. So yes, it serves the purpose. A Blackberry for work, and the iPhone for entertainment. Nice!

It’s the 3rd day of 2012, life is getting back to the normal routine again after the long holidays. Have you got any new resolutions? As for me, I’ll be reflecting on 2011 and will only pick up where things were left of, and removing anything that needs removal from my life.

First thing first would be – losing the weight hence once again after the holidays. That’s the thing with holidays, we tend to eat, eat, and eat.. and be merry about it! Then the cycle would have to start all over again as you gained what you’ve already lost for the past few months before the holidays. How ironic! Those who have that extra cash, I’m sure they will prefer to get the weight loss pills to lose those inches fast! Why? Chinese New Year is just around the corner, which means, have to look nice while having a grand time stuffing their face with food – yet again! Geez, the cycle with us human! But what really matters is the fact that we enjoy our life in the cycle.

Goodbye 2011. Welcome 2012. Hope 2012 will be much better than 2011 was! Cheers!
