My Birthday in 50mm

What a lovely day. the moment I opened my eyes in the morning, I saw an angel looking at me with her big round eyes with a cheeky smile. She touched my face and coo-ed, I didn't know what it meant but I assumed it was 'good morning daddy, happy birthday and I love you', I kissed her and said 'I love you too dear'.

Then I saw the first angel that fell from the heavens then on to my lap, sleeping soundly; tired I guessed. She did say she'll stay up baking a surprise for me. Kissed the angel on her forehead and I went straight to the kitchen and there they were; delicious looking cakes looking back at me with names matching their reputations. 'chocolate moist cake' and 'death by chocolate'.

Then we went out for a lunch+movie date. clash of the titans (finally) and lunch at Georgetown white coffee(though we didn't get coffee there) we got ourselves rojak buah (fruitsalad-MALAYSIAN style), a couple of cendol in soya milk(instead of santan).

wait a minute, its a birthday what about presents?

forgive the small capped typing... still inspired from my stay at thistle (Thistle.com/Port_Dickson_Hotel)

over the weekend.

this is not a post about the hotel.

as at today i am now 28. it was a long way getting here. all those bends i think i handled it well... a hiccup or two, just makes my journey much more epic

i am now married to a lovely wife, blessed with a beautiful girl.

dear god, if this is a dream, please don't wake me up.

Office/Gym/Store/not enough room for a Studio

My feet had been whining lately...

and I think they cannot catch up to my weight. Knowing the latter fact, I decided to raise the bar a little from walking around the neighborhood to restarting my martial arts training. So I got myself a punching /kicking bag (RM90-pengkalan kubor). Took me 2weeks scavenging for my old jeans/pants/shorts/pillows to fill it up.

At home I have this third room which until last week it was an office(sort off) / store room. I even bought a swing which comes with its own stand that will double as the bag's stand.

It also works well for anger management.

Yes it has limited space but I am doing something for my health. What about you?

The Unreliable Back-up

*sigh* a laptop can on keep so much files. For a shutterbug and an avid leecher, i consider a portable hard drive as a good investment.

Last month, I 'invested' on one. So I transfered about 65GB from my laptop into it to make room for new pics, new videos (yes i leech too) but to my surprise it gave up on me.

65GB gone bye bye...

Investment my a**!!

Anak

Its a very pleasant feeling waking up next to her and her mother. Nothing beats the feeling. Its like falling in love again and again.

In this pic; my daughter Husna. Took these pics in a hotel in Penang.
