Go-Karting etc
Last Saturday was quite action packed for me. First I met up with an ex colleague to have bakuteh together. Then some friends asked me to join them for go karting in Shah Alam. Looking at the time, I figured I can go for it and still have ample of time to go home and shower before meeting up with another friend for dinner. So off I go to Shah Alam to meet my friends.
The weather was quite gloomy and we were quite worried that it was going to rain. Nevertheless we still proceed to the venue. Upon arriving there, it still didn't rain, and thus we carried on with karting. There were 2 options, 60cc karts and 100cc karts. The 100cc ones are quite pricey, so we opt for 60cc.
This is the 2nd time I go karts. It's a really fun albeit pricey activity. Pictures are on Facebook.

Wedding Dinner
Sunday I had to skip my class because I realized that I'm supposed to be attending an ex-colleague's wedding dinner in KL. I really forgot about it totally, but luckily I did made a note about it in my phone's calender and hence got reminded about it before it's too late.
It was the typical Chinese wedding dinner that we've all been attending and been very familiar with. I was surprised that they have the Karaoke set ready for guests to sing on stage, because most people did not want that nowadays. More surprising is that I went to toilet and came back finding out my ex-colleagues have nominated me to sing on stage. What to do, have to be sporting, so I went up to sing. After a while, they made me sing another song. Really got "placed on the table" (俾人摆上台).
On a side note, this is one wedding dinner that ended very very early for KL standards. 10pm and it's done. I guess the hosts didn't want everyone to stay back too late since the next day is a working Monday.

New Set of Resolutions
Well, it's not exactly new year yet... but I guess I'm setting my resolutions early. Looking back, I think I'm still quite a failure. I've been slacking off from my visions and taking things in a too relaxed manner.
Things are going to change. I am in the midst of planning a series of upgrades that I should work on to improve myself. I will be a different person by 2010. Item 1 has just begun. Item 2 coming soon. Item 3 most likely somewhere next year.

Farewell, Gathering and more
Last weekend was quite eventful. Started off with a farewell dinner of a colleague, followed by a visit to MOS: Euphoria on Friday; caught up with a friend I haven't meet for months, and a gathering of ex colleagues at Souled Out on Saturday; as well as a visit to *undisclosed location* plus some hands on trial of *something* on Sunday.
So, yet another disgruntled employee left the company. I wonder who's next... and when is my turn. This girl is one of the few remaining subject matter expert in the company after a bunch of them all left about 2 years back (I was told).
After the farewell dinner, I joined a few of the colleagues to check out MOS: Euphoria. Entrance was pretty expensive at RM50, and so are the liquors, with Chivas going for RM420. Music is typical MOS style... trance-y techno. Crowd was not too bad either. Don't know why lately I've been enjoying these techno music like MOS, David Guetta, Paul van Dyk, Tiesto etc, so I kinda enjoyed Euphoria. Not to mention that it's a non smoking club, so all the better.
Hartamas has been kinda quiet lately. I went there on a Saturday evening, thinking it would be packed, but surprisingly there's ample of parking. Maybe as my friends say, economy is not that good, so more people prefer to stay home. Also could be because it rained earlier, so less people feel like coming out on a rainy day. I've no idea.
I've been interested to learn something new. Lately learnt about *something* and I happen to have a few friends who are into it. So I decided to visit their *undisclosed location* to check it out. Most likely I will be taking it up, although classes would be on Monday evenings, which could be quite tiring since next day is also a working day. Plus if I were to be dumped into another client's site, it might be quite troublesome for me to travel after work for practices. Nevertheless, I think I'll just start first and worry about all these later. I think I'm gonna like it.
