New Bus in Kuching

Posted on By sweet surrender 6 Comments on New Bus in Kuching

For those of you who left Kuching for quite a while, if you do come back, you will not be seeing the usual blue buses from Chin Lian Long anymore. It’s now replaced by green buses called the City Public Link.

When it started? I’m not so sure. I’ve seen quite many of them on the road few months back but I didn’t know those were our new public buses because I don’t take public transport and I don’t know how hahaha… I thought it’s a new express bus company. I only knew about it until my mom mentioned about it.

However, public transport in Kuching isn’t that efficient yet. I doubt it will be soon. At least, nicer looking buses and cleaner looking buses are used now.

Said it…

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Said it…

I’ve said it… It took me tonnes of courage to pitch the whole thing out.

I sensed the disappointment or negative vibe even though I didn’t say it face to face but online via chat. I know there will be a lot of uncertainties, how about this, how about that and etc. I’m trying to find balance so that it will benefit everyone.

I don’t know what the person will be thinking but I think at least I’ve said it out earlier is better than later. That way we can at least think of ways to continue with things rather than just end everything which will do no good to anyone.

Frankly, I’m worry. I’m worry about where the whole direction will be heading.

I’m sure there’s negative vibe, just need time to digest the whole thing.

At least I’m doing something for myself and think for myself rather than having my decision affected by someone else. That’s what I’ve been doing all these while, quite silly if come to think of it. I’ve let go of one chance after another chance and now that it’s here, I have to hold on to it as there will not be any chance coming anymore. At the same time, I’m quite afraid in taking the step, I’ve been in my comfort zone for God-knows-how-long.

On the other note, I guess it’s fair that now someone is feeling what I’ve been feeling last year and it took me quite a while to adjust and adapt to it else I don’t think that person will ever understand what kind of emotional roller coaster that I had been tru’.

So… What else can I say? I’ve said it out and now it’s time to see what’s the next step should be to create a win-win situation.

RM49… Down to the Rubbish Bin

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on RM49… Down to the Rubbish Bin

Bought Harriston Durian Milk Chocolate from Chocolate Gallery aka Cocoa Boutique at Gohtong Jaya during my last trip to Genting.

Guess what? Wanted to eat it before CNY and this sight greeted us -.-” MOLD!!!

RM49 for 12 pieces went down to the rubbish bin. The most expensive chocolate we ever bought and at the end we didn’t get to taste it. Since we didn’t get to eat it, we broke one opened just to see how the filling looked like. Couldn’t eat, could only see. Such a pity.

Sigh… Should keep it in the fridge rather than in the cupboard. Due to the humidity and the temperature we had at home, it spoiled. There wasn’t preservative in the chocolate and the expiry date was March 2010. The packaging was just a layer of plastic wrapping the box.

Aih… Expensive lesson to learn.

Printed My Photos @ eoe.com.my

First of all, I’m not paid for this. I know eoe.com.my has blogger review program but I didn’t join.

Few weeks back, I decided to print my photo with eoe.com.my. I have 2 years worth of photos(159 of them) that I didn’t develop. Having hardcopies are good coz you will never know when your softcopies will be corrupted. If it does happen, there goes all your memories. So I filtered out the photos that were worth printing and uploaded them to eoe.com.my for printing.

Only RM0.30/photo for 4R(you can’t get this rate in the market!) and there’s free shipping if your order more than RM35. I’m quite lazy to go out to send my photos to print. Not only that, I have to burn them into DVD since there were many file files and were huge! What a waste of time, energy and money. So eoe.com.my came in pretty handy.

From uploading to printing and to get them to my doorstep via Poslaju took only less than a week. I made payment using Maybank2u.

Wondering how to upload so many photos online without getting disconnected? No worries, they have their program for it, you can resume your upload anytime you want. All you need to do is download it, install it, choose your photos and upload them in one go. Just leave the program open with your connection of course and let it runs on its own.

Few years back, you really had to upload one by one but not now. You can still opt for one by one upload if you want ;p Why make your life so hard?

In fact I knew about eoe.com.my quite a while ago but those time I asked my friend to upload them for me since I didn’t have that many photos to develop so we combined so that could enjoy the shipping fee.

I do recommend this service 🙂 It’s easy, do it anytime as long that you have your photos and internet connection, it will save lots of time, energy and money.

Interesting, Review It!
