Accidental Stay at Paradise Sandy Bay

Someone who was so thoughtful about me called me on a Saturday afternoon asking if I was free.
And, it turned out to be an invitation for a night's stay at Paradise Sandy Bay.
(Thanks .. my good samaritan)

My die-hard 'must-take-a-lot-of-photo' spirit never DIED.
I took my camera and snaped MANY, MANY pictures.

It's christmas... isn't christmas.. till it happens in your heart..
Took someone's room key and snapped.. (smart me :P)
The first time I walked out of the lift, I was surprised that the rooms were suites instead of just 'rooms'.
Photo 1 - patterns
I was amazed with the size of the room....
and I was staying all alone in the room....
It's a not too bad place for a holiday vacation for oustation folks..
(no money for saying this but I just wanna share)
Photo 2 - Perspective
I tried snapping The cove from my balcony at level 7.
My first time setting to MF but I find that the pictures were slightly out of focus and I felt as if I have bad eye sight looking thru the view finder; it's almost impossible to manual focus the rings of the lens.
I took the lift up to 17th floor and the view was way better.
It was windy too..
And I still dont' understand how to avoid the "Stars" for night scenes.
Breafast in the morning.
Overall - I dislike the food from the hotel.
Breakfast, dinner, lunch did not taste good at all.
It's one of the worst buffets I've been.
Its like, I was staying at the buffet line not knowing what to put on my empty plate.
Welcome drink from the lounge - overly sweet which is not suitable for the diabetics.

Photo 3 - patterns again :P


I didn't know there are a lot of angmohs sun tan-ning out by the beach.

What's the Difference between 'Net' and "Nett"

Since it's part of my group's job to publish daily billings report to the management, our Director (from US) pinpointed that we should fix the spelling of 'nett billings' to 'net billings'. My colleauge was looking at google, trying to understand the 'right' spelling to be used. I finally checked it from Wikipedia , and found that 'nett' is BRITISH and 'net' is AMERICAN. No wonder he's offended to fix it to 'net'! C'mon. I'm in an american MNC, I should be more sensitive towards this.

An afternoon at Dannok

Living at the northern side of Malaysia makes it really convenient and easy to go 'overseas'. For us, going to our neighboring country, be it Thailand or Singapore by land or by flight is really easy. I'm always a fan of Thai food, and with the remaining Thai bahts that I had since my last Bangkok trip (which I didn't finish even crossing the border a couple or times), I decided to go Dannok for FOOD again. So, it's a day trip or rather, half day tour to Dannok For the past few weeks, I was searching for insta / blog /facebook posts if there is any other new hangouts in Dannok, but sadly, I couldn't find many bloggers who write about it. The funny part is, I already blogged about it two years ago. The immigration complex in Malaysia is new. I nearly couldn't recognize it, while passing to get our passport checked. As I didn't want to drive over, we parked our car at the Zon Duty Free. As I entered, I took the wrong ticket (which parking rate is RM3...
