I’m Back From Miri!

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on I’m Back From Miri!

Hello people! I’m back from Miri already! Only manage to online now. So tired, need to get some rest. So many paid posts need to write, so many posts need to update, so many photos need to resize & edit. Oh dear…

Just 2 hours before the flight, we managed to visit some places of interest as my friend who is still down with chicken pox(not fully recover) drove us around Miri and we managed to take some photos. He was supposed to go back to work but got “kicked out” because they said that he’s not fully recover *LOL* Since he’s free so he brought us around and sent us to the airport. Save another RM18.50 πŸ˜› It was raining but luckily when we reached a place, it would be just drizzled or stopped! Quite lucky.

More update coming these few days! I feel dizzy now -.-” My legs are very painful too…

Miri Trip – Part 1(6/10/07)

Posted on By sweet surrender 9 Comments on Miri Trip – Part 1(6/10/07)

Ok… Just a brief update. I’m so tired after the whole walking around thing. My friend is down with chicken pox and I ventured out alone under the scortching sun as I started at about 11am and got back to the hotel at around 3 something in the afternoon. I just walked! Only about 1 hour of stopping, that’s when lunch time. Was walking without any aim, any road that was in front of me, I just walked and didn’t know that I actually walked that far already.

Went to the airport before 6am, and off I’m on my 7.10am flight.


Left: My ticket and boarding pass…
Right: The departure hall of KIA.


Left: You can have a massage on these chairs, just need to insert some coins. I’m not sure how much though.
Right: Getting ready. I wanted a window seat but I forgot to request hahaha… I seated on my assigned seat first and see who would be sitting at the window seat and then I’ll ask for a change hehehe… YAY! I got it hehehe… Actually the guy’s seat was behind and was seated by other people since he came in late, the narrow legroom was really hard to let him access the window seat so I asked him whether I could sit there, luckily he said ok πŸ˜› hehehe…


Left: On Boeing 737-400 or B734. Safety card.
Right: The rivers below. The window was badly scratched.


Nice!!!


Left: The rivers again, taken from the window in front of me.
Right: Snacks and juice.

It’as about one hour flight. We took a taxi to Imperial Hotel that cost us RM18.50. I haven’t take any photos of the airport yet πŸ˜› Also I didn’t take photos on the way to the hotel. I forgot :p Still sleepy actually.

Part 2 coming soon…

Why Do You Go To Miri?

Posted on By sweet surrender 13 Comments on Why Do You Go To Miri?

By the time you are reading this, I should be in Miri already or still in flight. Ah well… Anyway… I’m going there very early morning today and will be back on Monday afternoon. This post is auto-published πŸ˜› Hehehe… I’m on the way there when this is published.

When I told my friends that I’m going to Miri, they will surely ask me why I go there -.-” Then they will say there’s nothing fun to do there, it’s so much more boring than Kuching!

Frankly, I have no idea what I’ll be doing there hahaha… The crazy part of me actually booked the ticket just because there’s an offer by MAS few months back! Also at the same time Jimmy is going, so at least I have a travel companion to split some cost though I will be on my own most of the time as he’s joining an event.

My friend is supposed to bring me around but too bad… He’s down with chicken pox… How lucky is that?!?!?! So… I will be venturing around Miri on my own!

Hahaha… I did mention before that I think I should just book my flight tickets whenever I feel like flying out of Kuching instead of thinking so much about to go or not. I did it! Hahaha… The flight tickets to KL next year is also booked this way! πŸ˜›

I will online there :P. I’ll be losing money if I don’t blog for a day or at least complete or grab some paid posts over the weekend ;p hardcore blogger eh? Hahaha…

Olympus Mju 790SW Water Test

Posted on By sweet surrender 20 Comments on Olympus Mju 790SW Water Test

Hmm… The Paypal fund is not in yet after the Paypal fund withdrawal last weekend… still waiting…


YES! I got a new camera :p hahaha… As if you will believe me. Actually it belongs to my sis. She bought it at the price of RM1100 last month. The price advertised in the newspapers is RM1199. They only gave RM99 off but gave her many free gifts, a leather camera casing, a bag and xD card(I can’t remember how big is the capacity). It’s quite new and it’s 7.1Mp, 3x optical zoom, waterproof and shockproof. If you are expecting me to do a full review on this camera, you are wrong πŸ˜› I’m not the expert. I’m just posting this for fun and show you that it’s indeed waterproof hahaha… I forgot to copy the photos out from my sis’ camera to show you the photo taken in the water.


Left: The buttons.
Right: The external speaker and microphone appear to be just holes with nothing to shield it against the invading water. Hmm…


Left: On/Off button and shutter button.
Right: Hahaha… Nothing much, just the bottom.


Now the water test. We switch it on and off in there. Took some shoots, play back and flip it around. Also left it in side the water for couple minutes doing nothing πŸ˜› That’s all. Hahaha…


The camera in the water that was switched to preview mode.

DONE! Hahaha… We took it out from the water and switch it on and off to see whether any short circuit will happen or not and glad to say that it’s OK. Remember the hole that I mentioned? I still don’t understand why the water didn’t go in. Maybe it’s just the casing with fake holes just to indicate to your the microphone and speaker are there?

However, you have to bear in mind that even after you wipe the camera dry, it would still emit water. No idea from where. We just placed it on the table and the water just came out from nowhere as if it’s sweating LOL… So, if you don’t want to get your things wet, make sure you store your camera separately after using it underwater. You can bring it 3 meter underwater.

The verdict? It’s waterproof hahaha… No bluff!

What kind of review was that?!?!?! πŸ˜›

Going Blue…

Posted on By sweet surrender 25 Comments on Going Blue…

Finally I’m done with my clear contact lense, starting this month till December, I’m going blue… Hehehe… This is my first time trying out coloured contact lenses. I have two more colours, pure hazel and brown. These 3 boxes cost me RM100, buy 2 free 1. Good thing my both eyes have the same degree so I can buy it this way.


I had changed my contact lense brand many times and settled with Softlense38 for years. At the begining, I was using Seequence, then I tried Acuvue, next I went back to Seequence. Who knows… The price increased so I switched to Softlense38 until now. I’ve been using monthly disposal contact lense ever since the first time I’m introduced to contact lense. As for now, this is the first time I’m going to use 3-month disposal contact lense. For the next 9 months, I will be using colour lenses and every 3 months, my eye colour will change *LOL*


Softlense38 is only 14mm in diameter but Freshlook Colorblends is 14.5mm. Even though they’re only bigger by 0.5, they can really be a pain in the ass. They’re quite big! Took me quite long to get them into my eyes -.-” Not only that, they’re quite soft but a bit more thicker than the usual contact lenses that I used. Quite hard to explain, maybe it’s because of the size that made them a bit harder to retain the shape when on my finger tip or I should say my finger is small *LOL* Another thing is that, it’s quite hard to see whether you got it in correctly or not as there isn’t indication whether it’s inside out or not, have to be very careful. It even got lost inside my left eye yesterday after I insert it! Gosh… Scared the hell out of me, luckily after a few blink it shows itself, got stucked inside my upper lid.

I got the right side in faster than the left. Took it out and wore it back many times because it felt so odd! Due to the colour, you have to get used to it. Summore they are quite big in diameter, it’s a bit uncomfortable.

It took me longer to insert into the left eye. It just didn’t want to go in hahaha… Finally when it’s in, my vision at the corner was very blur even after blinkings and adjusting. I don’t know what’s wrong. The right side was blurred as first but after few blinks it’s OK just a bit uncomfortable because the size is bigger, need to get used to it. Then not long after that it’s OK.

I decided to let it be as I was thinking that it might need sometimes to adjust to my left eye. However, in less than 2 minutes, I couldn’t stand it anymore, I just had to take the left side’s out! I decided to switch sides(good thing my eyes have the same degree else there is no way I can do that -.-“) to see whether it’s my eye problem or one of the contact lenses was defect. I switched them and my right eye could adapt faster, no such problem with it. Then the left eye, the bluriness disappeared a bit slow but it’s not that long. Hmm… However, still both eyes felt a bit uncomfortable.

Few hours later, it’s not that bad anymore but it dried up quite quickly! Oh dear… I’m a bit regret that I bought 3 boxes -.-” I have to stick to them for the next 9 months and constantly rewetting my eyes(I guess…). Arggg… This is my fourth day using it, feeling very much OK already. The blurriness after the insertion didn’t last that long anymore but it really dried up fast. I don’t use them for more than 8 hours so far. The big diameter is really no fun hahaha… I’m using more time to insert them but removing them are very easy maybe due to its texture.


Left: Just my normal eyes…
Right: Damn! I freaked out after wearing it when I stared at myself in the mirror! Felt so fake and the eyes seemed to be no life and cold… Also scary…*LOL* All I see is the thin piece of plastic covering my real eyes. So… Don’t try to piss me off for the next 3 months, I will stare at you using that fake blue eyes of mine to make you feel BLUE… COLD… Then you might get a nightmare after that πŸ˜› I feel as if I’m getting ready for a halloween party -.-” It’s so not my colour… I guess it’s much more suitable for those with light eye colours than dark ones.

I don’t think I will go on using them after I’m done with them, I guess I will just switch back to my good old Softlense38. I don’t like the huge diameter and they dry up fast.

LOL… This experience with coloured contact lense is so much more dramatic than my first time using contact lense.

I wonder… Do Northern Virginia plastic surgeons perform eye colour changing surgery or not? Don’t think there is such thing in this world. Just my crazy thoughts that’s all. Who knows one day there’s such technology but I still prefer changing my eye colour with contact lense instead of going under the knife.
