Yesterday ,together with a friend and her two children revisted Saga Hill again. She picked me up from my home at around 6.30 am and since most of the shop in klang were not opened yet, we deceided to have breakfast at the R& R on the highway.But when we got there , there was not many shops opened and so we thought we had better delays our breakfast till we reached Kuala Lumpur. Had breakfast at the cheras market, and after breakfast, could not find our way or remember the route to saga hill. The last time we were here was a couple of months back ,so we tried to ask for directions from some passer by and it did not get us anyway and we were still lost. Finally I deceided to give my hiking friend Alvin a call and he gave us a road name which my friend input on her gsp and within 25 minutes or so we arrived at our destination. Climbing up iniatally was quite a problem as with most hills, and after a while I manage to get to continue without much problem. It has been quite while since I last climbed here and I have forgotten how steep the slope were. Rested a while on the peak .There was not many people this time round unlike most of my previous hike where the peak was filled with people. Finnaly met with an elderly man who was on the way to the pond to feed the fishes there. My friend Irene and her son Joe, followed her, while I continue resting on the peak. A few minutes later got a sms message from my friend asking us to join her for tea. Appear her host had make some tea and I don't want to know where he got the water from.So we made our way down the slope to where the pond was. After a while we took our leave as my friend's daughter had tuition class around 3.00 pm and I had another function in the evening. We stopped by a friend's fish ball shop at Pandan Indah,. Had a quick lunch and headed for home.Reached home around 2.00pm and rested. Things I need to remember whenever going on a less challenging hike like saga, the other one is tabur. Just a 6 lit water will do. Need not carry heavy bag or heavy camera,just a compact camera will do.

In the evening around 5.45pm I followed my son to the yearly event, the Bon Odori 2010.
This event was jointly organised by the Japan club of Kuala Lumpur, the Japanese School of Kuala Lumpur, the Japanese Embassy .I have seen photos of the past event, and so out of curiousity deceided to check it out. When we reached there around 630pm there was already a big crowd and the seat on the stadium was fully occupied.There were also many food stalls,selling what else but japanese food and drinks , but the price was hiked up. Did 'nt buy any food except for a bottle drink which cost RM3.00 .Tried taking some photographs, but give up after a while as could not moved around much due to the huge crowd at the stage areas where the presentation was held. I notice there was not a single police man to be seen and people just park their vehicles any where and anyhow they liked.some even double parked.There is no consideration for others at all. So would I be coming back next year again? Nah, once is enough.
The dictionary describe a busy bee as somebody who is always very busy and active ( informal )
Can someone really be that busy? I wonder?
No matter how busy one is , it will be good if they can take some time off, have a break, call up somebody who might be missing you. your family, friends, I am sure there are people who care for you.
I like the advertisment on the radio, where they got one of the american idol to shared the importance of keeping in touch. Despite of his busy schedule Adam Lambert makes it a point to call his family and friends. That's cool.
Just returned from a wonderful trip at Tabur east. This trip, just took my breath away -literally. I had not been hiking for a couple of months now , and found myself short of breath as I climb up the hill this morning. It took me quite a while to get use to hiking again and I did not know what it was like to hike again until this morning. It was a good trip, met some new friends and I had a surprise when I received a call from my friend Alvin chang. I thought he was at the far end of the peak, but when I got to end of the peak I found out he was on the other side of the mountain. -another peak Tabur extream , which I hope to climb one day.
Just got my photo album which I ordered on line last week. It came by city link. This is the first time I had order a photo album on line and the process was quite easy. The photos I used was from my eldest son's pre- marraige photos shooting. I discovered them on face book here. You will be require to install a software , where you will be guided from begining till the end of the photo book, then you can have the draft of your finish work for you to view and if you are satisfied , you can proceed with your order.simple and easy.
Quite happy with the results ,although the paper quality is a bit thin ,but it sure beat the hussle sending it to the shop and collecting it later on. Here I just did it at the comfort of my home and have it delivered at my door steps.Aah the advantage of on line services.
My daugther in-law sent me a text ,almost begging me if she could keep the puppy given to her by her friend. It's a Shih Tzu (simplified Chinese: 狮子狗; Read more about this breed here. How could I refuse such an innocent plea ? I only hope I will be able to convince my wife. The last time we had a pup, she was not too thrilled about it and in the end we have to give it away. Let's hope this time around she will have a changed of heart, and hope my daughter-in law will keep to her word about taking care of the pet.The last thing I need is world war 3 at home.
Further reading on how to take care of this pet can be found at this site.
Is this the pet we are gonna get? Hopefully not another hairy dog? What have I gotten myself into?
Saw this caption on my friend's ;photo album on facebook. reunion with daugther. Actually his God daughter. I just get excited whenever I see incident like this.Of course I am happy for him, being able to have a wonderful evening with his god daughter, but at the same time can't help but feel envious a bit. why do some guys have all the luck. I have not seen my precious for such a long time, I lost count how long already.sigh. She is ever so busy , and hardly have anytime for this dad who is pining for his little girl. ..double sigh.
This insurance ad from thailand is very touching.speaks of the father's unconditional love for his daughter.
