Looks like I have settled for this theme and the photo is taken from my Township called Canal Gardens at Kota Kemuning Shah Alam, you can see the man made canal with a jogging track. I realised that I was looking for a pot of gold when I was sitting on one. Now my next goal is to get more readers to read and comment on my blogs. Any ideas?

Searching for that exclusive template
September 25, 2008 · No Comments
For the past 2 days I have been searching for a cool theme and I didn’t seem to get anywhere (back to where I started). Maybe I should be contented with what I have. Keeping this page as simple as possible and not to clutter it with all the available free widgets that my itchy fingers would like to add on (reference is made to blogger). I get envious when I see some of the templates of other bloggers but I just can’t seem to do anything to mine, maybe I am a newbie when concerns this matter.
So what do you think?

What do I have in store for me
September 24, 2008 · No Comments
This is just to say what my day is going to be like today. Well I sat through the traffic jam this morning to get to my site office and it was raining in the morning but I see the sun now.
I have to prepare myself for today’s Management meeting and I am in the midst of doing that. For your information, my management meeting starts at 2.00 p.m. and it last until maybe 5.00 p.m. Lots of stuff to talk about but the means to execute the talk is still lacking as we are really, really short of funds.
And I get a lot of calls from all the creditors and Iife is actually not a bed of roses, maybe the thorns outweigh the fragrant roses.
I have to have a quick lunch today, maybe I’ll have a bowl of noodles and I have to sit like a buddha in the meeting room.
So the day is pretty much tailor made for me.

Too many blogs to keep track
September 23, 2008 · No Comments
It becomes a pain when you have too many blogs to update and too little time to do that. I know when I was in Hyderbabad India I definitely had a lot of free time in hand but somehow now when I am in Kuala Lumpur at home, time just gets gobbled away by the time machine.
Anyway I spent some time here on this blog but I don’t see that many hits and I guess I have no one to miss me. So what can I do to get more hits? The answer is very simple….feed the blog with interesting topics but somehow I find that difficult to do as my mind has frozen.
If I were to ask you this question? Which blog site do you thing is the coolest and what is your pick. Be a good sport and share it with me.

Busy at work in KL
July 22, 2008 · 2 Comments
Been back home on the 9th of this month and it looks like I have lost track of time. I am stationed at Bandar Bukit Jalil rushing up the houses for the buyers. There is a lot of work to be completed and it’s not easy to do it without vitamin “M”. So I have to face the brunt from the buyers and the authorities, however all this is not my making.
The next best thing to do is actually start looking for another job but I guess the job market is pretty dull at the moment. Got myself registered with Job streetĀ dot com and let’s see what happens?
Everything seems to be expensive after the recent fuel hike and I don’t see any good news coming out from that. Looks like my expense is more then my income and there goes all my savings from my overseas job.
Hope is all I have and I sure do hope to get another job soon.

Blogs from unknown persons
July 6, 2008 · 2 Comments
Would you trust blogs which doesn’t display the profile, you don’t even know where the blogger is from, what sex and sometimes some personal information like his or her’s likes. It only has an initial.
I had someone who commented on my blog at blogger just now and I clicked on this persons blog as a matter of courtesy and to my suprise there wasn’t any info on the blogger.
Well I wasn’t feeling comfortable visiting a site like that, I definitely would like the blog to have at least the photo and location of the blogger. So when you type something on their blog, you at least feel a little connected by visualizing them.
So do let me know what you feel on this?

Ah..Sunday
July 6, 2008 · No Comments
Well I had a great party last night and I went to bed at 12.30 a.m but I was still sober. Was on the net for a short while but the damn internet by Tata Indicom got dissconected for no apparent reason, tried switching the system off and on again a couple of times until I said enough was enough. Went to bed rather angry as I couldn’t read the articles that I wanted to read about the happenings at home in Kuala Lumpur.
Got up to a bleak Sunday as I know the house was in a mess after last nights party, the servant came in by 10.15 a.m. and she did the needful and cleaned up the mess. After that I have been blogging and checking up the net, have to read the newspaper on the net though and the damn current went off at 12 noon here in Sainikpuri and I still haven’t decided what to eat yet for lunch, I have the leftover from the party and this morning I had to throw the wonderful fish curry that I made as I didn’t keep it in the fridge last night and hence there was froth on it. Why risk it and so I told the servant to throw it away.
Got myself a bottle of Tiger beer and I am still sitting on the first mug for hours until the beer is already warm. Sunday is terrible for meĀ as I have too much time to kill but I guess not for long as from Wednesday onwards I would be back home with the family.
Someimes I wonder, who reads my blogs that I write about mundane things as I know for sure that there are no readers because not a soul had commented on them in WordPress unlike blogger but I just keep at it as I need to kill my time and I am sure there are people out there who are in a similar boat like me.
Have a wonderful Sunday unlike mine.

Farewell party
July 5, 2008 · No Comments
Yes I am getting a farewell party today from my friends and neighbour and they have lined up quite a lot of goodies which includes crabs, fish, pork and beef. Even they have bought a couple of bottles of liquor, whisky, vodka and rum. Looks like it’s gonna be one hell of a party.
So I guess it is going to be a royal send off for me as I leave Hyderabad for good on 08.07.08, nice date huh. Anyway I am going back home to KL after 6 long years stationed in Hyderabad.
I will post a couple of snap shots from this party in a couple of days.
So wish me fun and I hope with all these drinks I don’t get pissed out before the night is over.

No visitors yet
July 5, 2008 · No Comments
It has been 3 days since I had started this blog thinking that I would get visitors or hits but it seems pretty pathetic. What happened to the flow? Maybe I have to visit others on their blogs first. It’s like putting up your stall and waiting for the customers to trickle in and maybe a few would have seen but doesn’t have the courage to comment yet. What are you waiting for guys, come in and leave your footprint so that I can return the favour by dropping by to your site too.

Last of the powercuts and other misgivings
July 4, 2008 · No Comments
Yes after Tueasday I am going to say bye-bye to this powercuts in Sainikpuri that I am staying. What is wrong with this people, they cut the power from 12 noon to 1 pm and again in the evening from 5 pm to 6 pm. What gave them the right to do this cutting and whenever they please it keeps going off and the power fluctuation is terrible in the day time and early morning. Looks like this State (Andhra Pradesh) is going to face a severe shortage of power by next summer as it looks like the monsoon has not lived up to it’s expectation so it would be a double whamy, no power and water.
I am outta here from this place and heading home, I had enough of this torture and the hard water that I use for my bath everyday. Enough of the crazy traffic, enough of cooking for myself and just enough of being here. I had enough of waiting, waiting and nothing but waiting here, right from paying bills to lining up in banks to the supermarket.
Just felt like letting out my frustration which was pent up for the last 6 years that I was here.
