One day at KLCC kiddie pool...

Old photos.... this was during Christmas holiday 2009. Took the family out for a day at KLCC and the kiddie pool. Realized for the first time that my son is growing up and yearning to be part of the social community...

That's the thing with kids.. we sometimes failed to see that they are growning up. We tend to keep them in our cocoon and try our bestest best to keep them close and safe. 

Like new computers that came out from the stores.. they normally are pre-installed with softwares and programs to let them run on their own. We trust the vendors to do that for us... why can't we trust the pre-installed instinct given by God?

Ladies with hats...

My two adik ipars...

So they think they are cool eh? hehehe..

and owh.. the third one is somewhere around...

A little bit of laughter... 7 legged spider as payment...

Found this in the internet... hahaha


The spider story begins with an email exchange between an Adelaide man and an unnamed utility company.

The man, David Thorne, owes the company $233.95.

Instead of paying up, Mr Thorne sends the company a picture of a seven-legged spider which he "values at $233.95".

Funny!!.. (I think..)

Dear Jane, Are you sure this drawing of a spider is the one I sent you? This spider only has seven legs and I do not feel I would have made such an elementary mistake when I drew it.

Hello, I am back and have read through your emails and accept that despite missing a leg, that drawing of a spider may indeed be the one I sent you. I realise with hindsight that it is possible you rejected the drawing of a spider due to this obvious limb ommission but did not point it out in an effort to avoid hurting my feelings. As such, I am sending you a revised drawing with the correct number of legs as full payment for any amount outstanding. I trust this will bring the matter to a conclusion.
Regards, David.

I understand and will definately make a payment this week if I remember. As you have not accepted my second drawing as payment, please return the drawing to me as soon as possible. It was silly of me to assume I could provide you with something of completely no value whatsoever, waste your time and then attach such a large amount to it.
Regards, David.

Thaipusam - Batu Caves, Kuala Lumpur

Thaipusam is a Hindu festival celebrated mostly by the Tamil community on the full moon in the Tamil month of Thai (Jan/Feb). It is also referred to as Thaipooyam or Thaippooyam in the Malayalam language. The word Thai-pusam is derived from the month name Thai and Pusam, which refers to a star that is at its highest point during the festival. The festival commemorates the birthday of Murugan (also Subramaniam), the youngest son of god Shiva and his wife Parvati, and the occasion when Parvati gave Murugan a vel (spear) so he could vanquish the evil demon Soorapadman.
