Bike Routes

I just felt like showing you guys my bicycle routes I use to catch the 6.40am morning bus.

Legends are :-
  • Red Line for Route
  • Green Box for Origin
  • Blue Box for Destination



And here's a description.
  • From Jalan P11 A2/5, enter Lebuh Sentosa. Ride downhill towards the bridge.
  • When you passed the bridge, use the newly constructed exit ramp to enter Persiaran Utara (you will ride against traffic, careful).
  • Head towards the motorbike lane beside Persiaran Utara and enter. Exit motorbike lane at end of field at left of motorbike lane.
  • Ride downhill Jalan P9G until 3-way traffic light, and cross Jalan P9.
  • To minimize sweating, walk uphill Jalan P9 with bike until 4-way traffic light. (this walking is like an exercise cooling-off, as far as I can feel)
  • Turn right to Jalan P9B and head towards the nearest bus stop.
This is probably the easiest route, among most I've tried. Yes, there are at least four options to choose, which I will not cover here. You can check the map and imagine the other three or more options.

Reverse the order to head back to Origin.

Wa Shing Ka

We spend the weekends both at Seremban and USJ this week.


So while I am driving my mum to send stuffs to friends, I contemplated on sending my father's veteran Toyota Camry for washing.

Yes I am lazy. And I have lots of reasoning.

Actually what I especially emphasized was on the interior vacuuming. Yes, it's too neglected, I just think I should do something or ask somebody to do it.

So off I went to SS19 and was having high hopes.

But then I do think the paint oxidization on the roof and the trunk might not come off so easily.

Thus, maybe I will have it polished next. I don't know, when budget permits..

The Rain Will Always Be There Anyway

Of all times, the rains usually occur around the time I travel to and from work.

So, it coincides with, most of the times, my biking trips to and from the bus stop.

Then, I cannot cycle. Thus, I have to wait for the bus.

And the buses were unreliable. At 6.50am, the first bus arrived. And I wanted to catch the 6.30am RapidKL at Precinct 9.

Fat chance.

I don't really mind enduring the rain after work. But it's a no-no when I am going to work.

The last thing I need is fever, from the rain.

Open Offices, Houses, Surau And A Wedding

There will be lots of Raya invitations these few days.

I endured two Open Offices today.

There will be one tomorrow. The one our office will organize.

And then, several open houses the day after.

A wedding and an Open Surau on Sunday.

I just hoped I stayed at 58kg on Monday.

Tunnel Vision

Sometimes, I experienced this personal form of tunnel vision.

I think the PC monitor in front of me looks too far away.

Sometimes, the water cooler looks like it's a kilometer away.

Probably it's the aftermath of the dengue scare I got a week ago, I don't know.

Not The Usual Fever

Took MC the rest of last week.

I was actually suspected as having dengue.

So it's not the usual fever. I was lucky I guess.

So from Tuesday up to Friday, all I did at home was, lying down. And when the time comes, off to the clinic I go.

Everyday at the clinic, the usual routine was to go to the lab to have my blood extracted for tests, and then wait for the doctor to inform me of whether I should be warded or not.

Lucky, I am for all week, saved from being warded, all thanks to bottles of 100+, some Ling Zhi pills, and crab soup.

Needless to say, I don't like all three, but I have to take them anyway.

By Friday, come the good news, that my platelet count was over the "sick" limit. So starting from that day, I can Raya...

A Week Of Warmth

Yes it's a Raya week.

But I don't really get to enjoy most of it.

I was actually down with fever come third Raya.

I felt so disabled. It's quite a hot one, and my body seems so weakened.

Traveling from Terengganu to Seremban was fully taken over by my wife, as I am unsure I could even watch the road properly.

The least I could do was enjoy the first two days of Raya, and that's good enough for me.

And today, I do try to come to work.
