Damai we went again...

With the usual suspects, up we went to Damai again... but this time to Damai Lagoon Resort. They are offering RM100 nett for standard rooms without breakfast, and for every subsequent nights, RM50... it's a freaking bargain I tell ya!!



the weather was gloomy, and rained almost 80% of the time... but it was okay... spent most of the time eating, watching TV and playing mahjong...


family-day outing for some government agency...


yeap, it's raining at the far end...


Malaysia lost to Singapore on penalty... darn...


mahjong time again...

RIP, grandma...

my grandma passed away in her sleep peacefully last Thursday morning... and after dad called me and inform me about it, I took half day off work and went over my uncle's place to help out on things...

She passed away at the age of 97, and after adding years to her age (Chinese calculation thingy), it was a whooping 103 years old!! The funeral ceremony was held on Saturday, and all her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren add up to more than 100 people... it was a grand send off for her...


the cover for her coffin. this masterpiece (including the coffin of course) has a current market value of more than RM20,000... no kidding...


taking a last look at grandma...


the memorial record book... recording people who came over to pay their last respect to grandma


the ceremony thingy before having the coffin transported to the cemetery


the youngest in the family... cute huh... =)

repaired my disc brakes

due to the lousy quality of the disc brakes provided by Proton, and after changing the brake pads for the third time in 5+ years, the surface of the discs became very uneven, causing this metal squeaking sound whenever I brake my car...

couldn't stand the sound, so I sent the car to one of those workshop which does disc brake trimming....


they took out the disc brake...


after the trimming process, walahh... smooth as silk...

damage to wallet - RM45
