the day that almost everything when wrong.... part deux

yes....the day when on pretty ok after that...not too bad...but the weather in Penang is pretty HOT....and I'd just noticed something about today's flights...the flight back to KL...it was pretty quick too...the plane was late...we boarded the plane late..and we got to KLIA much earlier than expected....wonder if the plane had NOS installed or something...

the day that almost everything when wrong....

Yeah man...i mean it....the day that almost everything when wrong (so far that is...) got to KLIA airport on time and got me ticket too...so far so good...oh btw I was on the way to Penang...the ticket states gate B9 and boarding 8.45am and flight 9.15...as i walked there and reached B9, the lady said it was changed to A11...i say thats like the other end of the building...nevermind move my butt there quickly..la..la...la..la...la.....and half way there...i could see gate A11, the last gate on the end...i was at about gate A5...and there was an announcement...Flight MH1138 has been changed to gate B11...it was like $%$%*&(^&&%^%...its the other end building...so now have to walk back to the other end....man!!! by the time we got there...everyone was waiting outside of the gate...not even in...and there we knew the flight was going to be delayed...btw they didn't announce the flight was delayed...we got in 15 mins late..and the flight took off at about 10am...and it took like 25 mins to get to Penang...and it was super quick....hmmm.....and when we landed..the plane like over-ran the runway...just hit the brakes instantly after touch down...thats the thing so far..another half the day to kill...hopefully in the right way.....

stay tune....

btw my colleague had his share of wrong days too...he was suppose to take the LRT to Sentral and KLIA Express to the airport...and what happened...the LRT broke down somewhere and he had to drive to airport instead from Wangsa Maju...

Medical Advances....

again...i've been so busy that have not written anything...the company quarter ends this month end thats why...anyway, i came upon this hilarious joke....

An Israeli doctor says 'Medicine in my country is so advanced that we can take a kidney out of one man, put it in another, and have him looking for work in six weeks. '

A German doctor says 'That is nothing, we can take a lung out of one person, put it in another, and have him looking for work in four weeks.

A Russian doctor says 'In my country, medicine is so far progressed that we can take half a heart out of one person, put it in another, and have them both looking for work in two weeks. '

The Malaysian doctor, not to be outdone, says 'You guys are way behind, we recently took a man with no brains from Kepala Batas, Penang , put him in the Parliament for 5 years, and now half the country is looking for work.

Kampung Keropok Lekor

after my JB trip last week...i was off to Kuala Terengganu for a day trip yesterday...too bad i forgot about my Nuvi else we would be able to test out how accurate is the Malsing map in kampungs....anyways i was at an area known as Kampung Keropok Lekor to the locals..practically every stall there is selling Keropok Lekor of all shapes and size, cooked, frozen, the chili sauce still in the bottles...and us being heroes suppose to be there on business ended eating keropok lekor and making it more interesting bought frozen keropok lekors...btw RM5 per pack frozen hard guaranteed still frozen till you reach home :-)

interesting fact is there's only 2 flights back to KLIA after 12pm thats 3pm and 9pm except on Thursday there's a 6pm flight since Terengganu's weekend is Friday and Saturday...and us being heroes yet again..my colleague suggested we take the 6pm flight on MONDAY (get the drfit....) i told him no such flight and he said there is...so we moved our butt to the airport @ 4pm and found out taaaadaaaaa.....and we were stranded there till our flight at 9pm...it was ok, we still had internet access so some work could be done (btw Internet courtesy of your own handphone with EGDE). and the airport was so deserted only a bunch of shops and stalls - 1 makan stall, a watch shop, a batik shop and and and...thats it....but when the evening came it was packed!! like a shopping mall....its like Terengganu folks like to come to the airport for...for...window shopping? admire the airport architecture? air conditioning? god knows....and it seems that the Terengganu folks like to park their cars at the arrival and departure area...there was a dozen announcement asking owners of the cars to re-park...i really mean it, more than a dozen times....

and lastly our MH flight was delayed 20 minutes.....what misadventure..

Austin Hills Golf Resort..just a simple resort...

I was away at JB last week for some partner sales training, we had it at the Austin Hills Golf Resort...a peaceful place off somewhere in JB..and tot hey! might as well stay there too...and the rooms...my god!!! its damn BIG...i mean really really BIG...and dirt cheap...RM121 per night...a simple room with a nice view over the golf course and 2 BIG super KING size bed for you to roll about...BIG bathroom, shower, toilet and a bathtub...like I said its a plain and simple room, so don't expect too much like astro channels...but can expect media corp channels....and business people..no internet access for you!!! and the room service....its 10am to 8pm only hahahaha so go prepared..thats with grocery shopping done and come with a set of wheels!!
