Living in a cage

My neighbor house was broken in. It happens in the daylight. This is the recent trend, of robbery in daylight. The only good thing is no one is harmed.

This really makes me started to feel I am in my own cage which happens to be my house.

What irks me is the question, as to why they are doing this.

Is it that really bad in getting a decent job with a pay to survive? By robbing, does that makes them rich?

Arrghh... seems to me where ever I choose to live, it is definitely is cage. By saying this, it can even happens in the apartment or even a secure condominium.

Hmm... how about a housing area with security guard plus perimeter fencing? Arrghh.. a premium fees monthly. Really come to think about it, I am living in an unsafe world.

Arrgghh...

Almond Cake

Another yummy cake for my tummy. With slices of almond as topping. I call it Almond Cake. The baker can't tell the name of the cake. The baker only repeat the same question, "Is it nice?"

Hmm.. I am eating it.. definitely it is nice. My repetition of nice must be a way to convince her to continue baking. Some sort of mantra...

Case for Canon S90 - WXD

I was hunting high (but not high enough) and low (but not low enough) for my Canon S90 case or pouch or bag. In the website, there are many brands with different design. It cracked me to find out, those cases with the design I like were not easily available in nearby shops.

I was at Low Yat trying my luck. Voila! Found one that fit my desire. As the case allow the cam to go in and out easily. It even have a small compartment for extra 1 or 2 SD card. The finishing is of high quality. Padding in the case is good.

As can be seen in the first picture, the side, near the mouth of the case has a part that gives some protection to the camera when the flap is closed.

On the second picture, the strap to the belt is using Velcro. The part with Velcro is long, it makes me feel secure with my camera at my hip. It maybe a bit difficult to detached it from the belt, without loosen the belt. But this is definitely better than some case, where one have to take out the belt half way to put the case on.

A sample shot, to indicate the length of the Velcro. Even looking at the photos, already tells me the quality of this case.

In the case is all orange color, just as it is displayed in the first picture.

At both side of case, there are ears attached to it. A shoulder strap is provided with this case. If one don't like to belt it, then hang it over one's shoulder.





Here is a sample of case with the flap closed.

The details,
Brand: WXD, model no. SM98673
Found it at: All IT, Low Yat PLaza
Damage: RM26.00
Owner satifaction: Very happy with it.

At The Curve

Then we arrived at The Curve after romping Ikea. The place is quite empty especially at certain corners. The pic on the left is one of it. Can't tell if this is a good or bad. The good thing is I get a sit to rest my aging legs. Now a days the legs of mine is not willing to carry the weight on it. Hmm.. come to think of it, the round body on this pair of legs. It wants a break...















Near to where I lounge, is Metrojaya. I came out from this entrance to find a sit. While waiting for my little one to complete rampaging the toys. He is looking for ways to trick his mommy to allow him to take home a toy of his choice. Nah.. he did not succeed. "Will come again, bye", say him to this department.
















Then ended at this corner of the building. Nearby is the children play area, the very reason I am there. While waiting, I was trying out the camera in a low lighted area. The area is surrounded by children shops. Toys, clothings and kids room where mommy is to accompany the kids. Hmm... I don't seems to remember there are sofas around.







This is the reason I am taking a seat. Just to watch him running, jumping, passing remarks and whatever else he did. This just makes me realized that he is growing up. I am still telling him, "Be careful, don't fall down" or "share share okay". For god sake, he is 3 years old, let him be.

At Ikea

Last week was at Ikea, as we went to check on some items. A small table for the kitchen (which ended in Ikea, as we can't decide), some utensils and my son play stuff. Was trying out the new camera. This building is The Curve. The area I am in has four building in close proximity. Namely Ikea, Ikano, The Curve, Cineleisure and Tesco. Oops! there is additional one building. So basically I can be there whole day.





Then off we go to the Ikea restaurant. A meatball and a mini fish bugger. Free coffee with Ikea credit card. A boxed orange juice. Been there few times. This time it change the sitting arrangement. One thing nice about this place is it has children area. If a child is not wanting to sit down quietly, the child can play in the mini playground.







It is nice to have Ikea to use the items they sell to decorate the dining area. From there one can visualize what it's like to have this setting for their dining. Floating lamp on the dining table. One thing for sure the night view and day view will different. So if one is interested in the night view, then a dinner in this restaurant will allow one to feel the ambiance.

New compact cam

Got my new compact, Canon S90 on 2nd of November 2009. I was so excited that I swiped RM1500. Above is the sample photo from this new compact. It is as grainy as 1000D. This is really something handy and pocket able. The rest please search the net.
