Esso? Xcel?

Posted on By sweet surrender 5 Comments on Esso? Xcel?

This photo is taken last week at Menara MAA. There are two petrol stations there right? One Esso, one Shell. I noticed that many Esso petrol stations had their signboards removed last few weeks. I thought they will have new signboards put up as the current signboards are all very old already, at least 10 over years.

Well… Indeed there will be new signboards but no longer Esso but are replaced by Xcel. There will be no more Esso in Kuching anymore. Too bad I didn’t take any photo of Esso before. How about other places?

Why Bother Going Through Apple?

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Why Bother Going Through Apple?

Sure you love your iPod, but after a while the earbuds that came with it just aren’t enough. When you’re ready for something new, instead of going to Apple for some replacements check out Quiet Headphones for a great selection of iPod headphones that are sure to have you bobbing your head to the music in not time.

Not only are the iPod earphones from Quiet Headphones designed with the iPod in mind, but these noise isolating Etymotic ER6 headphones will ensure that you hear only what’s coming through your iPod, not what’s going on around you.

Check out Quiet Headphones and their great selection of iPod earphones and I’m sure you’ll be happy that you went with them instead of going through Apple.

Taxi In Kuching

Posted on By sweet surrender 13 Comments on Taxi In Kuching

What do you think of Kuching’s taxis? I have no idea, I only know that you can’t stop a taxi anywhere as you like unless you are at the taxi stand(do we have one?) or you call them up to pick you up. Usually, what kind of car they used? Our national cars such as Proton Wira, Proton Saga, Proton Iswara of course! Also some old Toyota Crown.

I might be slow in realising this. I know many of you should have seen it before. A Nissan Sentra for a taxi in Kuching! WOW! This is the first time I see one. Is this the one and only taxi that is using imported car in Kuching?

It even has a single number carplate. Cool…

Ok… Ok… Sorry for being so sakai *LOL* You might have seen it many times but this is my first time seeing it πŸ˜›

What Major Is Right For You?

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on What Major Is Right For You?

Interesting quiz! You should tried it out. Hmm… From the result, I think I might have studied the wrong subject in college hahaha… But… I hate accounting, finance and marketing! It’s quite accurate that I like the 2nd, 3rd and 5th. WOW! Amazing! You should try it out! I guess I should consider one of these for my Master degree hehehe… If I intended to go to back to studies. πŸ˜›

You scored as Accounting/Finance/Marketing, You should strongly consider majoring (or minoring) in Accounting, Finance, Economics, Marketing, or related majors (e.g., Computer/Management Information Systems (CIS or MIS), Entrepreneurship, International Business, Operations Management, Public Administration, Real Estate, Risk Management, Sports Management).

It is possible that the best major for you is your 2nd, 3rd, or even 5th listed category, so be sure to consider ALL majors in your OTHER high scoring categories (below). You may score high in a category you didnt think you would–it is possible that a great major for you is something you once dismissed as not for you. The right major for you will be something 1) you love and enjoy and 2) are really great at it.

Consider adding a minor or double majoring to make yourself standout and to combine your interests. Please post your results in your myspace/blog/journal.

Al-Rajhi Bank @ Kuching

Posted on By sweet surrender 17 Comments on Al-Rajhi Bank @ Kuching

OK… OK… Before that, I’m sure you will relate this post to one of the top bloggers in Malaysia as he had made a post about it lately. I’m not going to talk further about what he had blogged. Actually I also thought of what he had blogged even before he blogged about it but then he blogged about it first so there is no way I can post about it else I’ll be deemed as copycat. Sperm bank that is!(For SEO purpose πŸ˜› hehehe…) Don’t get what I mean? See the logo *LOL*

I went to Al-Rajhi Bank the other day to get a current account. My aim was to get its debit card. Summore, if I’m not mistaken, during this promotion period, you do not need to have an introducer to get a current account with this bank. You only need RM100 to get a current account. You’ll get a cheque book and a Visa debit card after you signed up. Those are mine in the photo πŸ˜›

The bank is an Arab Saudi bank that is in the process of opening branches around Malaysia. This is the first branch in Kuching and from my observation, they will set up more branches soon. If you are wondering where it is situtated, it’s at Wisma Bukit Mata. Oh by the way, the interior is really really nice! It’s not your typical bank settings! Cool…

Finally I have my first debit card! Hahaha… I have a credit card already but it’s not mine, it’s a subsidiary card only *blek* At least I have a card of my own now hehehe… I will pay for what I used instead of owing people money and settle it at the end of the month which I’m not the one to settle it πŸ˜› Also, this is my first current account(exclude my company’s current account) hahaha…
