look ma, no hands.
lol i dont know why but i somehow find these pictures very very amusing. :)
those drain covers, dont play with them man. they can take freaking more than 6 tonnes of load. but im kind of emphasizing on the 'floating' barrier tape. it keeps the heart wondering. no idea why.
battle of the cranes. its amazing how much effort is to be invested just to sleep the tank to remove a small component at the top.
"RIDGID lifetime warranty: if this housing breaks or distorts, return to Ridge Tool Co. for a free replacement." now there you go. lol you dont mean it dont you? :P
yes, i went to the driving range for a couple of swings. and yes, we have a driving range in labuan. lol.
lol and i find this truly ironic. seriously.
and this is the new 700 ringgit prescription safety glasses. whee! no im not rich, it has schlumberger written all over it. but lol, heck its coming back with me this january. :P
and this is the love of my life. :)
oh i mean sleeping is the love of my life. :P
and this is my heartiest congratulations and love to all of you. you, in that purple gown, owe me big. BIG. :P
and finally, this is just a very lousy attempt to squeeze smiles out of your faces. :)
cheers everyone. hope everyone is happy and rocking.

schlumberger
okay its freaking hard to pronounce i know. the original french people here call the name:
shlum-bahh-jhei.
wait wait, okay, allow jim to guide you via his very own comprehensive step by step procedure that will make you a name pronouncing champion:
step one: put your lips as though youre trying to kiss the love of your life, and at the same time, restrain yourself from fantasizing about... ahem.. that.
step two: take a deep breath and be mentally prepared (like chanting "schlumberger, schlumberger" a few times though you have no idea how to pronounce it).
step three: say s-c-h-l-u-m, then b-a-h-h, then j-h-e-i like your mouth's dancing latin.
step four: okay congratulations, you have officially and successfully graduated from the "jim says you look super gong" class! :P
lol okay its hard to try to make that sound here, but its not that weird bah.
cutting all the crap.
this picture is pretty amazing. :) i mean the thingee happening behind.
so, jim's been here for a wee bit near 3 months now. time passes fast, so many digestions, ups, downs, indigestions, problems, happenings and what not. so many things to learn, so many people to see, so many people to not see, and so many surprises to get.
i thank God for sending me here, because honestly, ive always wanted to stay comfortable at home. always. ive been away from home every now and then, sometimes thousands of miles away for an indecent period of time already. and that somehow makes jim a wee bit weary of travelling away from the family again (which of course includes the freaking chubby doggie at home).
but all those travelling, all those away-from-home-moments are really exciting when i do a wee bit of flashback. theres so many things revolving around the world, the sea of people that ive met, and i definitely wouldnt get to experience even a wee of them if i keep insisting to stay home.
and now, even in the lowest moments of me being in labuan, i am blessed. probably, the best present that He has blessed me with now. *wink*.
oh and and if you dont believe that doggie is now not fat, but FATTTT!, see this:
ohhh look at his tummy! ohh! deyymmm!
lol. im going to sooo bring him to the gym when im back to earth. :P
take care everyone!
(p/s: jim's flight back is confirmed! 12-18th of oct 2008)

blessings and honour
changes, for this very one time, is, crossing fingers, really unbelievably meng-hang-fuk-kan. :P
God will guide us through, I believe.

XL
try imagining what happens when this:
big ass prom queen rolls right beside you?
okay ill tell you.
even if you have 5 balls or ten, your heart would thump so hard it feels like dr bailey's gripping and twisting it with a freaking 48" pipe wrench in the operation theatre. (guys only okay? girls.. no balls one thing, and i think they might faint already). :P okay okay that sounds wrong, just kidding. no, not sexist.
just picture the earth youre standing on trembling, a sudden gigantic shadow throwed right at you, freaking loud transformer-ish noises all over, war zones kind of smell and a warm and piss-ful sensation in your pants.
okay nah im kidding about the pissing part.
but hey, its a really cool experience. ;)
(p/s: jim is a happy man. :))

arms (and belly) wide open
lol after almost a year keeping this photo in my HD,
i just realized that theres shadow down there,
and it looks freaking fake.
right right? :P
btw, thats a peace monument built to recognize the people who died protecting aussie in some war. (and jim and co's nonsense drills) :P
exactly at that point where im looking in the picture, you can oversee the whole melbourne town, straight road all the way til the end of the city. :)
cool huh?
