Power Lines

Topic: Office
It was in the morning and I was standing in the meeting room looking outside, and the view caught my eye.

The sun although somewhat blocked by the electric tower, gave a shimmering outline to the railway tracks below and a dark outline to the cityscape in the horizon.

Everyone is probably busy getting to their office, either by train, as can be seen passing by, or by car, as seen parked below.

I like the curved lines of the tracks leading to the city. Kinda cool.

Italian Service
Mood:  rushed
Topic: Personal
My car had developed a problem with its brakes and was also underperforming. So I had to send it for repairs.

I discovered this shop on the Internet and my brother helped send my car here. It's called FA Italia and the service is good and the prices very reasonable.

Just don't go to pick up your car during lunchtime - it's closed.

Waiting
Topic: Family

While waiting to pick up my nephew from the LRT, i caught a bystander also waiting for someone. He must have been waiting for some time; you can tell by him leaning against the pole with cigarette in hand.

I guess you have to be very patient when waiting for someone...

Towering Office
Mood:  incredulous
Topic: Office
This is where my office is located. It's a modern design and about 60 floors high.

The semi-circle thingy jutting out at the building is a helipad. There are also 'skygardens' every five or so floors, and these are basically an open area beautified with a garden where people can enjoy the outdoor scenery while having their tea breaks.

It's quite a sleek looking structure, but i dread to be caught in the higher floors when they perform fire drills...

Taking a Break
Mood:  cool
Topic: Office
Today I did some technical support work at one of our a branch offices. They were having some problems accessing our intranet, so I was there to reconfigure their PCs.

When that was done, I had some cakes and soft drink at the canteen. The local system administrator was thanking me for solving the issues. The place was empty as is wasn't lunch nor tea time.

It's important to rejoice and reward yourselves even for the small successes.

Shopping at Megamall
Mood:  celebratory
Topic: Personal
I went out this evening to do a bit of shopping. Well, actually to get some gifts for friends at office.

A good time to go to Midvalley Megamall is after 8pm or early in the morning like 10am. You'll most likely get parking and there won't be many people.

I think there's some sales going on, so the usual crowd of shoppers is busily out and about. There's quite a few tourists too.

Well, actually, this place is perpetually covered with patrons. And there's always something new to see.

Normally, at the Centre Court, there's some kind of exhibit or stage presentation. But today, it was empty. Maybe we'll get to see something interesting this weekend...

The PC Fair

Topic: Hobbies
My nephew and I went to PWTC to visit this megasale computer fair. We went there early to avoid the jam.

I bought a 256MB thumbdrive for RM133 and 2 colour ink cartridges for my Epson 830 printer for RM54 each. I estimated a savings of RM110 off normal retail prices! What a bargain!

Petrol Pumping
Mood:  lucky
Topic: General
Every now and again, I need to feed my car with fuel; it is quite a drinker. I normally fill it half-tank and that lasts about a week. Mind you I do less than 15km per day.

Sometimes there can be a long queue at petrol station as many cars wait in line to fill up their vehicles. Today, I was lucky and the place wasn't busy.

I can't just give my car all the goodies. I need to pamper myself too. So, normally, I buy myself a chocolate bar and a tonic drink to give me the energy boost needed for the day :D

My Virtual Home
Mood:  a-ok
Topic: Home
This is where I spend most of my time at home. I'd be surfing the Internet and mucking around with my 3D animation.

Thankfully, I have a reasonably fast PC, even though it is a couple years old, and since I'm on Streamyx, my link to the World Wide Web is also quick.

I have a 19" colour monitor that is sharp and also a 5 speaker system including subwoofer that produces awesome THX-like surround sound, just nice to watch my DVD movies.

Ahh, home sweet home...

Urban Landscape
Mood:  bright
Topic: Office
It was lunchtime and I was bored, so I went up to the highest floor in the building and took this photo.

Apart from a few commercial buildings, most of what you see are people's home. I like the surrounding greenery and the hills in the horizon.

I could actually see people in their homes going about their chores and daily routines. Cats and dogs running around the compound, kids playing in the garden.

It must be nice to live in this neighbourhood. Probably peaceful and quiet.
