As you all know that last night was the end of the year 2008. My friend and I went to bing! Coffee, Premier 101 branch to celebrate the coming brand New Year 2009. 

In fact, this is the first time I stepped in this cafe. Usually I went to the pandungan branch (bing! Coffee). This branch is more or less the same as the main branch. I’ve ordered one glass of ice-blended tiramisu, with one tiny piece of biscuit ontop. It tastes great. 

** To be frank, my blog has been quite slacking recently. My life has been busy awhile and I have this little weird disease, AKA laziness. Hopefully I would recover from this awful disease. 2008 is a good year for me, joyful indeed. Here’s my story, I have traveled to Kuala Lumpur in early of December (after my examination). Joyful moment is indeed shorter than I’ve expected. After the trip, I am back to face the reality world. 

Back to the present, it is quite packed at bing! coffee. We have a funniest moment, while playing with my funniest iPod touch. As usual, the dark sky is enlighten with beautiful sparking fireworks. 

** Sadly, I have a big spend on the year of 2008. But still, it is definitely worth for every penny that I’ve spent. Is it just luck or what? Lately I have managed to grab few good opportunity in ‘working’ world, such as designing some brochures and web designing. So, I hoping to spend less and earn more in this brand new year of 2009. 

Hope I’m not too late, HAPPY NEW YEAR OF 2009!!! 

Yesterday (22th November), I just went to our Kuching, first ICT Mall, or second (previously it is located at Saberkas). OneTJ is a mini-Low Yat Plaza (LY is popular in KL city) which is located at the Heights Drive commercial centre and first opening at 22th November 2008. The compound is rather small, but still bigger than Green Heights Mall according to Wiki (oneTJ is 6,270 m²,whereas GHM is 4,000 m²).

The above picture is taken before the soft-opening. Sadly the opening day was not that ‘great’ comparing to the other malls such as tHe Spring, Boulevard & GHM. According to one of my friends, he mentions that it is pretty crowded during the morning section.

There is lucky draw event at the ground floor and you-know-who is the organizer, DIGI.

As you all know, this is ICT mall. So, not much to tell here. There are still tons of empty outlets for rent. Besides that, there are some non-ICT outlets, such as kitchen appliance outlet, hair salon, and etc.

I’m very impressed with the food court. The food court, SAMBA ZONE, is located at the most upper top floor. It gives a very classy and modernism environment. In my point of view, I think it is the best comparing to tHe spring’s food court. Samba equips with three luxuriously LCD TV, just like atmosfera cafe. Food wise, I have no comment on this because I have not try any of the food.

The whole mall is covered with deConneXion WIFI, which is free until 31 Dec 2008 according to the deConneXion site. Sadly, I have a pretty bad experience with this service. Oh well, it is still great because you still can be able to get ‘connected’ as long as you are inside the mall. And I end up buying one item, iPod charger for my Touch, which only costs 20buck. 

On wed, I just got a new cool gadget. :D 

It’s not iPhone but iPod touch, 2nd Gen. The picture above looks really like a dummy, right? Due to some stupid reasons, Malaysia here was delayed. Only until now, 2nd Gen iPod touch just on store but with limited stocks. Well, I get ‘Touch‘ from Hong Kong instead through a friend of mine, with much lower price. 

What’s inside the box? 

• Quick start guide book
• Apple stickers
• Dock adapter
• Lame-cheap earphones
• Small-tiny polishing cloth
• USB-2.0 cable for charging and sync
• And 8GB iPod touch

I have known this bakery shop since last month ago. Only only now I go to this bakery shop. It is located at Bormill, 3rd mile, Kuching. This bakery shop, GingerBread House, is quite unique, almost like Big Apple.

Why I say so? Gingerbread House is not only a normal bakery shop but also a ‘light’ cafe. It provides drinks, cakes and breads (of course). And one more thing, WIFI is also available and ones can online at there while enjoying those delicious breads.

Sadly the area is pretty small, even at the bread section. I have bought some buns, blueberry cheese stick, tuna onion bun and etc. ‘Ginger‘ is not my favorite, so didn’t get any ‘ginger‘ bread.

Guess what, I just got a free ‘Apple Pie‘ in this Raya. 

Starting on today (30 September) 6pm onwards, Switch (Cg Computers) gives away ‘Apple Pie‘ for any mac users who own macbook or iMac keyboard. Apple Pie is a silicon-based keyboard protector skin and worths RM59. It is only limited to 50 ‘Apple Pie‘ per outlet The promotion ends at 5th October.

Wait a minute, did i say RM59? Gosh, I seriously don’t believe it worths so shitty price, 60BUCK!!! And I think I was the first guy who get it in my local Switch, @ tHe Spring, Kuching.

Anyway, SELAMAT HARI RAYA
