iPhone for RM800

I was at the Amcorp Mall flea market last Sunday, just to hang out. I noticed one stall has a hand-written sign says iPhone 3G for RM800 - negotiable, original price RM2,100. Curious, I decided to take a look.

Sweet rides...

I was at Medan Maju Jaya to have my car's shock absorbers replaced last Saturday. It was in the afternoon while I was at the garage waiting when I heard the sounds of heavy bikes. I went outside to check it out and surely enough I saw two large bikes, but they weren't Harleys. These were way cooler!!! These were custom choppers!!!

Review: The Gift of Rain

Review: The Prisoner of Tehran

Welcome to 2011!!

It's 2011 and it's time to start many things anew!! The first new thing I wanted for my blog is a new look! Since arts and design were never one of my talents (not that I have many), I decided on something simple like choosing one of the ready-made templates and make some minor changes later.

I entered the Blogger Template Designer and ..... nothing. It just hung there and nothing happened. It doesn't seemed like Blogger was having some system failure since I can still post this article. It was showing nothing.

This is not a good sign. Does this mean I'm going to have a bad year?!! Nooooooo.....

Haha, just kidding! It's no big deal, I'll just make the change some other time. :P

What the plan for the new year then? Maintaining a good physical and mental health, of course! Without these two, no plan can be completed properly. Don't you agree?

What else? Read faster and buy slower, haha... I've been buying so fast and reading so slow that I still got around 40 books left unread!!! And I bought three new books just yesterday!! (o.O") I really need to get a hold of myself...

So one of my new year plan is to finish these books within the year. Which means I need to finish at least one book per week throughout the year, not including any new books I'll buy. This is going to be a major project...

Other new year plans? Hmm...

• Save more money. More like a lifetime plan, haha...
• Make my Kelisa look and feel new. I had my car for over 5 years & it deserves a good treatment. The shock absorbers definitely need to be changed. A new coat of paint sounds good too.
• Perform better at work. I noticed my performance has dropped somewhat lately. Definitely need to pick it up.
• Get a girlfriend. Haha... I'll let fate decide on this. 
• Continue to expand my book collection. I've been reading quite a lot of non-fiction (self-help, memoirs, true stories, etc) and a bit of fiction. I've been thinking of adding literature into the mix. Currently reading The Gift of Rain by Tan Twan Eng.

That's what I had in mind so far. More plans will no doubt be added throughout the year.We'll see how things go.

Wishing everyone a Happy 2011!!

BookXcess Year End Offer Bin Sales

BookXcess started a year-end sale from 26th, offering selected titles at RM1- RM8!! Sure enough, I went there on the very first day to check it out.

Which reminds me...

My colleague asked me one day if I had updated my blog and written any book review. Well... no, on both counts.

I don't update my blog as often, the last one was on 1st Dec. As for my so-called book review, the last one was in July. I did thought of writing book reviews when I first started this blog, just for the fun of it. Guess I lost touch along the way.

Maybe I should start writing reviews again.  I'll probably start with the latest book I read, while my memory is still fresh. I do hope that I'll be able to write a review for each book I read. It should be interesting.
