Past Updates

Well,
Its been some time since I last update here..
So here it goes..

New year
On the Monday before chinese new year starts,
Start travelling to Penang..
Wasn't that jam after all..
Maybe because most of the people is still working and not being able to apply for extra annual leave i suppose??
Was a smooth journey to Penang..

The funny thing about the trip to Penang was..
ON the highway,
You could see all those cardboards ( which I don't know what you called it ) with a policemen's face stating that ' Kurangkan Laju ' or something like that..
At first I didnt notice as I was sitting on the left hand side of the car which I would actually miss alot of weird stuff on the road..

Then everything went slow suddenly..
Somehow.. At first thought it may be because of the toll..
But the toll is so far away..
Plus the opposite road ain't that jam after all..

Then it comes clear when we reach under a bridge..
Then there was the police tower on the opposite side of the road..
With police dummies in it..
No wonder why cars slow down..
Scared it was a real police that might catch them and 'saman' them..

My whole family had a good laugh after we realised about it..
Wondering that no one wanna work to sit there..
Instead of that, putting a few dummy there would firstly, reduce cost..
This is because to get someone to sit there for the whole day or shift needs at least RM 100 a day i suppose?
And a dummy would only cost less than that and is durable..
Long lasting? No toilet break and lunch break or what ever is needed?
Isn't that benefiting?? And useful?

Maybe it does help to reduce speeding for those that didn't realise about the dummy,
But to those that realise about it may just ignore it..

Cut short the long winded story shouldn't I? =)
Chinese New Year in Penang ain't the same as in KL..
Much more happening..
ON the 30th night..
From midnight till about 4 am in the morning, there is still fireworks going on one after another..
But in KL, everything ends at 12 ..
And it is back to normal thereafter? Or not much celebration going on anyways..

After returning from Penang,
Life is back to normal..
Wake up in the morning, go to college, come back home, do homework(if any), eat, sleep..
Then it continues and goes on and on day after day..
Then time passes by, really fast..
One month after another..
Then here it comes, the Month of March..
And there goes another 3 months more for the External Examination!!
