Kick Start To Training

I confess that I have only had twice training sessions, the last was some two weeks ago...walking 4 km at the Stutong Park with Heroes at 6.30 a.m. This morning (in fact few days ago too), we are supposed to do another few rounds but sad to say it is raining heavily at 6.30 a.m.

Why do we train in the morning at 6.30 a.m. ? I would say that is the best time available rather than evening when we have a hard finding (I mean myself) to spend for training as my office hour finished at 6pm.

So this morning, I took the training activities to surf internet instead for more information about conquering Mount Kinabalu and I found this site to be very informative as the writer clearly share the experiences for us to prepare ourself well.... Go and find out ! http://www.climbmtkinabalu.com/index.html

We have less than 93 days before the starting at Mesilau Gate. It is very exciting even as I type this blog whilst worrying about high attitude challenges...my stamina, my tummy, my legs...

This Saturday, I pray that there will be no rain at 6.30 a.m, so that we can go walking for at least 8 km (equivalent to the distance from Mesilau to the Summit) except it is on a flat ground :)

First Day At Work

Today is the 3rd day of Lunar Chinese New Year. Time passes very fast, here I am in office after 4 days of holiday.

It is a quiet day but manage to secure one business as many offices are still closed and if open, the key people are still away on leave. No collection can be done in thses few days and to some customers, they do not like people to ask for payment within 15 days of the CNY.

Food is expensive with RM5.00 kolok mee for breakfast and afternoon, I have difficulty in finding place to eat as many favourite coffee shops are still closed.

Tomorrow, I shall be taking a day off to be with my children and wife as they are still on holidays. Still very much in new year mood and I think everything will return to usual by next Monday when everyone is back to work.

Better get back to work now...

Chinese New Year Shopping

It is only left with 6 days to "Sa Chap Mei", the mood is definitely gearing up and I can see more people coming out to shop over here in Kuching. However, I can be sure that the total sales figures is much lower than previous years. Everyone is more conscious about spending though they still buy new clothing, new year decoratives and goodies. May be not to some of you...as your Fountain of Wealth flows bottomless... or may be many have not received the bonus news from their companies...or just because of the recent floods has disorganised the festivity arrangement...

I bet you would agree with me that you still have not seen fireworks or heard any sound of crackers in these last few days to the reunion dinner. In our younger time, we have already burned few boxes of crackers and half of the "chip ponk". Still again, the price is cheaper this year. I was told that 3,000 sounds only cost RM18...however, limited stocks is available.

Let's pray deeply every of our plans shall go better than expected ! Moooo...ooo

Water came first...before the final crunch !

The last two days were hectic days and I hope it is the end of it though today, the Meteorology Department had forecasted the grandest King Tide will be visiting Kuchingnites tonight. Almost everyone in Padungan areas suffered quite badly from flooding. My office suffered twice flooding since Sunday evening.

We were so pump up to face the financial crunch effects trying to resolve best strategy to minimise the impact but got hits first from this total flooding disaster. What a mess indeed.

It has never been so bad in the past 20 years as reported for this area of the CBD. Many business premises suffered badly.

I continue to pray for better tomorrow, I pray for strong unity and resilient to bull through the year...the Year of Bull !
