:: The Trip to Jakarta ::

Yupperz.. I've been away from bloggin' .. away from KL.. away from home.. In a land far south western.

Almost couldn't make it for the trip due to some unforseen hurdles of flight ticket prices.. It's I guess normal when you don't plan ur trip earlier. Nevertheless - Me, Zul and Jeff (both my colleagues) still made it thru.. after all, Me & Jeff have neva been to Indonesia (no.. not even Bali) and we have a guide: Zul (being a half -Indon)


Arrival @ Soekarno Hatta Airport

Well, arrival at the place doesn't suprise me as much. Lotsa similarities with Manila, if I'd to compare it with another capital of Asian countries.

Learnin' Bahasa Indo isn't that challenging for us.. really.. just here n there..

Bisa = Boleh
Kamar = Room
Kamar Kecil = Toilet
Cerewek = Perempuan
Cerowok = Lelaki
Pancaran = Boyfriend or Girlfriend
Mas = Mr.
Pak = Mr. (more polite)

Our initial plan for the trip to Jakarta are actually to experince the 'clubbing' environ, from what we heard (frm Zul) it's better than those we have here in KL, but our adventure starts much earlier than that..

It's the traffic and the way people drive around town.. well.. let just say.. it's Quite an Adventure!

Here are some of the Clubbin' picture that I manage to snap..


Outside Centro Jakarta with Zul


The Gangs..

This are the list of clubs we've conquered:
First Night - CJ's @ Hotel Mulia
2nd Night - Tee Box, Centro & Stadium
3rd Night - Vertigo & X Lounge
4th Night - Roti Bakar Eddy (no.. tat's not a club.. ) LOL!!..

Other than that, I've managed to call Grace who happens to take care of the new FFirst that's launchin in a week time. It's the first FFirst in Indonesia, occupying three floors.. (in Bahasa Indon - Tiga Lantai).. well impressive.



with Grace.. at Plaza Semanggi (Fitness First)

Plaza Semanggi is just one of the many many many Shopping Malls in Jakarta.. it's surprising to see sooooo many Malls that some are even of higher-class than in KL! Yes.. people here are FAR richer than of rich ppl in KL.. it's kinda the extremes of both ends (poor being very poor.. and vice versa).

Places I've been? - Plaza Indonesia, Sogo, EX, Semanggi, Senayan.. hmm.. can't recall anymore.. anyway.. these places are quite expensive..


yeah.. rite.. W1ND?

I think I'll start photographing cars with weird/interesting number plates...


How would I look like if I'm Indonesian?

Well, lastly I must say thanks to Zul and Grace for lettin me to bunk-in their homes.. or else i'd be spending another thousand just to get a roof in Jakarta..

Tired but satisfied, I'd say this trip really opened up my eyes towards Jakarta, it's not what I think it is.. and it definately doesn't resembles Manila.. well.. another city.. another experience!

Oh yeah.. before i forget pls visit http://spykwaft.multiply.com for more pictures on this trip!

:: My Duckiess ::

Yup yup!! Quek Quek!!.. Me and my ducklings..

Thanks to Sue Lynn..(the green one) I've managed to pick up another hobby.. Duck collecting!!
It's really nice.. Seriously never actually knew that I would even... but I did...

Now I make it a point to buy at least one duckie, whenever I step into the 'Room Interior' shop.. Well, its at least cheaper.. MUCH cheaper than my collection of Oakleys.

Till this point.. erm I have only 10, and most selection of the ducks' design are taken from who'ever that's following me into the shop. They'll choose and I'll buy..

Would someone care to buy for me another one or maybe two perhaps??


Duckiesss!

From Left Row (Front to Back): Racer Duck, G.I. Duck, Disco Duck, King Duck, Punk Duck
From Right Row (Fr to Bck): Hot Rod Duck, Triplet Duck & Glow Duck

:: Similarities ::

Just recently I went to watch this Kung-Fu movie with some of my buddies, 'House of Fury' namely...
The name itself doesn't say much bout it, I actually thought it'll be some B-Class humourous-kung-fu movie.. but to my surprise it wasn't anything like that at all..

One of the producer was Jackie Chan himself! .. hmm.. okay, the gist is not that. Its just that during the course of the movie, I noticed that the main actress, Gillian Chung (one of the HK singer/actress girl-group named TWINS) looks very very much like one of my colleague!...

Delia Quek.. well herself has been mistaken many times as Gillian Chung when she went to HK, according to her frens.. Well, take a look for yourself..

Adding on to that, Delia is one hell of a good singer herself.. probably Charlene Choi should step out of the way and let our very own Delia to be one of the TWINS, hehehe...



Gillian Chung


Delia Quek

Well? What do you think?...

Ngeh Ngeh Ngeh!!!..

Die Fuckerssssssss...!!

:: My PS2 Story ::

Okay okay.. there came a time where every machinery needs it's servicing. Anything from a car to your computer and not to mention your PS2.

I came to realize this only recently, after having that 'machine' sitting in my room for more than 2 years.. and last week I bought this GT4 game (the best ever racing game produced, it is this game that provoked me to buy a PS2!! tat time was GT2).

Heard from my trusted game seller guy, GT4 (english ver.) comes in DVD9! Am so excited to try the game!!.. I'll never leave the house... yeahh.. rite...

Anyhow, as you may guessed.. my loyal PS2 can't even read the disc.. damnit, so i sent it for servicing as been advised by the 'experts' (PS2 sellers).

3 days has passed.. the empty space underneath my TV is a sore-sight.. no more DVD movie, no more games.. Missing my PS2 already.. there's 5 more days to go before its gonna be returned back to me.

Yesterday.. I went to gym in Menara Axis, to cure my misery.. and guess what happened..


The PS2 Kelisa.. damnit..
