Towels

It is nice and soft, it helps cover you when you come out of the bathroom. It also helps by drying you up when you take your nice hot and relaxing bath. Not only that it is so soft to wrap round a baby and the baby wont feel any itchiness caused by the towel.
A towel is a wonderful thing when you think about it and how we use to take an advantage of it. We just dont know how much abuse it takes during its life time. We squeeze dry it, we hit it, we throw inside the washing machine and let it be thrown around with other clothes, we rip or cut it, etc... but I tell you one thing... IT IS WORTH IT!

you know how much stress I get when I get a new towel and it is not absorbent? Yeah, you need to use it a few times before it becomes fully absorbent. I know the hot water trick or wash it 3 times consecutively. But that doesnt bring out it's full absorbing potential! Especially those towels that are marketed as "Super Absorbent Towels!". My arse lah super absorbent! A paper towel is far more absorbent than those silly towels! And what if you buy those microfiber towels that is mostly made out of polyester? IT CANT ABSORB ANY SMALL AMOUNT OF WATER...

Frustrating as it sound it happened to me today. I had this towel for almost a year now. I thought I could have a good relationship with it since it is so nice and so big. But noo... so many months down the road and it is still treating me badly! Yes, you throw it into a bucket of water it absorbs nicely. But when you run water over it, it just repels the bloody water!

I bought it for my car cleaning rituals. Today was the most frustrating day ever because I cant even wipe the surface dry with that cloth! All my other cloth is dirty and soiled and I need a cloth that is dry and clean. Lo and behold the cursed microfiber towel that I have. I took it and I tried to wipe and my goodness it took me a bloody 5 minutes just to wipe dry my roof.

ARGHHH... need to buy new towel. Make sure I must read the labels and buy only 100% COTTON!

a song that I modified..

who was so stingy and couldnt eat at home..
but when............... people started to hate him..
he thinks nothing has happened
He goes on calling you
to drink in daily or yoyo...

mmmm mmmm mmm mmm

Once... he went to tanjung aru..
ordered kerepok lekor but did not share..
but when... they bought a bag of peanuts..
he streched.... his hand to take the peanuts..
we couldnt quite explain it..
he always does it..................

mmmmm mmmm mmmm mmm
mmmm mmmm mmmm mmmm..

but he always calls people
and buy model cars and gundam...

cause then there was this time where
he tried to call a friend to go out for a drink..
but his friend said no to him..

we couldnt quite explain it..
he always does it..............

mmm mmmm mmmm mmm
mmm mmm mmmm mmmm

Glenfiddich

I currently am trying this...

I bought it with a reluctant heart because I did not know how good is it. I didont do my research on it and I just stared at which whisky I wanted to buy in the airport. Im glad I choose this whisky tho because it has a good taste.

sorry lah.. I've dranked half of the bottle and spent a few of my friends already.



for me, the whisky smells of malt and something sweet plus the smell of oak. The taste of it is not so harsh like cheap single malt whisky. Tasting it for some is pure torture because of the alcohol burn that the whisky has, but for me, there is a very distinct flavour to it. The after-taste is very fragrant and it lingers in your mouth for a long time.

among the 12yrs category of whiskys, this is by far the best that I've tried. Although there is a bottle of Balvenie still waitting for me. I would love to know what double cask will do to the flavours of the whisky.

oh well... cant wait!

Development of a country

So what makes a country fantastic to live in and wonderful to be told to everyone? It's infrastructure? It's modernisation? It's culture?

No...

Its the mindset of people!
People tend to complain on how great the country are because of the government help them with this and that. How wonderful it is as compared to Malaysia, how great the economy sector and so on. But when the government wants to introduce something that follows the other country, it is shot down with criticism.

For an example where the government plan to have checks on cars which is older than 15yrs. People tend to praise about Singapore on their automotive sector because they are so said better than us with new cars and so on. Singapore have yearly checks on their cars and every 5yrs they have to change their car or esle the road tax for the car will increase. Would Malaysians want that? I dont think so, people would surely complain. Incentives given ofcourse to change cars in 5yrs, but just imagine. Everyone has the incentives, wouldnt it be the same since everyone has the same incentives?

Then there is UK with their MOT. Every year they have to go for one. New or old surely they have to. What is there to complain about Malaysia's checks on cars which is 15yrs and older?

I understand for those who complains about how inefficient puspakom can be. But the people just doesnt make any sense if they say they couldnt keep old cars anymore. you still can keep, you just need to go for yearly checks.

Im supportive of this new ruling which was taken down IF puspakom is efficient and it does not involve in any money laundering.

But the problem is that if there is nothing been done, people will start to compare with other country and when we try to follow other countries we get criticisms.

Its all due to the mindset of people, comming back to mindset again. If mindset can be changed, wouldnt this country would be a wonderful one and be as productive and efficient as Singapore? I guess so... but, I still love living in Sabah. Its my home... LOL!

Life is just like that

#1
When you are rich, you tend to admire the poor on how they can survive. You tend to mourn and be depressed because you have too much money; hence the term "Money can't buy happiness". But when you are poor, you tend to admire the rich. You dream on what if you have loads of money. You tend to think that you will be extremely happy because you have the money to spend and never have to worry about money.

#2
When you are in a relationship, you will think that you cant live without your partner and you must be in a relationship. But when you break up.. for that brief moment you will think that single life is one hell of a good thing.

#3
When you learn about something that baffles your mind from another person who isnt your friend, you tend to ignore the fact and says that he/she is crazy. But when it is your friend who tells you the fact, you will take it in as if it is something new for you to learn.

#4
When only your opinion is needed for a certain item, you despise it and hate it so much until you could not bear to see it. But when a whole bunch of people praises it and adores it, you will do the same. Crowd psychology...

#5
When you drive an exotic sports car, you tend to laugh at people who have an old car. But the person who drives the old car will laugh at you because he will think that you are extremely dumb and spastic to spend so much money on a car that could do what his old car do for him.

#6
When you smile and be friendly to people in public places, you think it nice and friends who knows your intentions will think that you are great. But to strangers, you are no more than a down syndrome kid who needs to go into a mental hospital.

#7
When you get something expensive, the people who knows the value of the item will praise and envy you. But to those who doesnt know the value of the item will say that you are an extreme idiot to have spend so much on a worthless piece of crap.

#8
Playboys will think people who are loyal are dumb and dont know how to enjoy the pleasures of life. Those who are loyal will have no respect on playboys because they have no ability to mould a single being to become his ultimate pleasure.

#9
When you are inlove, you do funny things and dont mind. When you are no inlove, you tend to think those actions are stupid and very childish and you will avoid it at all cost.

#10
When you support a race(not racing lah..), you will talk good and defend their every move (white supriority is one example). The race that you praise will take an advantage of you and make full use of your kindness and leave nothing behind and run away calling you a sucker.
