Using internet at Lao's internet cafe.
The problem with internet cafe, is their keyboard and mouse tends to be really dirty and slimy! Think they should start creating disposable keyboard and mouse, or try to wipe it once a day!
Hmm... time not enuf to update again. Gng Chiang Mai tml
At Bangkok Gloria jean using internet. But only 1 hr free. so i dun think i will be able to update in time. hopefully the guesthse at chiang mai has wifi... signing off now.
Hmm... An adventure? Not Yet, but near
Hmm... have been quite a fast pace trip for the last few days... rushing to get on the train. Arriving super early in the morning? Or maybe it should be say at night?
Experiencing first hand, stone chip into the Train Window (which is realli loud) and causes a extremely complex crackline, yet amazingly not falling apart despite the bumpy ride and fast movement of the train. Talking to lots of interesting ppl on the train... Actually I didn't tok much... Kevin was doing the talking while I was acting all too Jap... keep snapping at the scenery or reading a book and pretend I dun understand. In fact, I can't talk much, coz they r using dialect. I understand them... but I would look like an idiot if I try to talk to them using my broken dialect...
My tactic...keep trying to act cool and ans only if its auntie or ah gong who needed help in moving heavy stuff.
Anyway during my 23hr ride from Penang to Bangkok, we were molested many times by a 5 yrs old gal... or more like domestic violence??? She was hitting us throughout the train journey. Using fist and Stepping on our toes.... :( but she is still cute... lol
And tats not all... even eating food become damm exciting.. .it almost like amazing race. We arrive very early at Penang... ard 4-5am... and all the shops ard the ferry are close. We were kind of famished, only bought a small pack of bread up the train, thinking they will be selling food onboard... hmm maybe they did... but we were too lazy to find out. So we walk ard the place looking for food... took us ard 15-20 mins b4 we located a prata shop...After some hesitation, since we just ate some prata like 2 days b4, we went in and order some prata... The prata guy seeing us from oversea actually offer us some free potatoes curry salad! Its tasty and similar to the one in spore... So we happily took it... haha must make use of all the advantage we get.
When we almost finished the breadfast, I call thiong at ard 7 plus... didnt want to wake him up too early, coz its his weekend afterall. I know he wouldn't mind, but I realli paiseh to wake him up so early... TBC
>>>> Got to stop here, writing at the Cybercafe in MBK bangkok... will update as soon as possible and tats if i remb the details.

Why the backpacking trip?
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Car accident on 02 Nov 09
Had a chain collision on upper Thomson road. :(
A white Honda civic hit a silver Mazda 3 before hitting my poor Honda Jazz.
Just to emphasize my pain, my car is less than a yr old.
This is the location where my car got hit.
View My save map in a larger map
It happens when I stopped in front of a red light traffic. I guess the third car (Honda Civic) must be chatting with his family and didn't notice the red light. Luckily no one is injure, else its gonna complicate matters more.
Got to postpone the BP trip just for this. The time lost and effort to remedy, is just not worth it man.... sianz
Front and back of the 2nd car
Front of the 3rd car. U can see the airbag crack the windscreen
A closer view of my car... but forget to take a clear shot of the bumper and 5th door... Just for the info... its been so deform, u can't close the door and gaps wide enuff to let rain water drip in

Time to pack my room... in a total mess now
This is the 3D view of my messy room at the moment. Gonna pack it b4 BP!!
I am using Photosynth from mircrosoft! A free software that stitches all the photo together in a 3D way! Its a cool and nifty piece of tool, esp when u wan to have a quick panoramic view and dun wan the hassle of stitching all the photos together by yourself.
Another advantage of using it will be the ability to keep shooting at any angle as long as the photos overlap each other. This way, you dun have to use a tripod and lock the exposure to get a panoramic photos!
To maneuver, left click and drag ur mouse left and right on the screen, it will move 360 degree ard the room.
Zoom in and out by scrolling the center wheel.
If you cant see this, u will need to install silverlight. It should work straight away on IE. However u will need to configure to make it work on firefox.
