Deathly Hallows...

Hey guys.. As i said from yesterday's post, I'm almost done reading the last installment of the Harry Potter series. About a hundred pages to go and I'll be done. To tell you the truth, this will be the 1st ever book I plan to finish (hopefully) reading in my 30 years alive on this earth. Review so far, it is more than expected. People dying all round, curses thrown, dragons flying, etc. is all there in the book. But until I finish reading it, hopefully by this weekend I won't be able to give a full review. However, for those who wants to find out the greatest moments in the book, you guys can read HERE (Note: SPOILERS!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED)

Pirates of Ban 4...

A'kum all... I know, I know... it's been a while I've updated my blog. It has been a very hectic 2 months for me. Tender preperations for Package C and D for Ulu Temburong has kept me away from my beloved blog. Anyways, I wont bore you with the details, just take my word for it. Ok, the reason for this update.. the heavy rain last night. From the Gaile force winds on Monday evening, to lastnight's heavy down pour have affected me in some way or the other. But lastnight hit me big time... FLASH FLOOD at home!!! Yup, you read right... I've been up all night expecting the worst, and it all came true when me and the missus woke up to get ready for work. One look outside our bedroom window, law and behold... our house has been surrended with water... We were stranded on our very own island with no way to out. No more drain or small stream along the road, the road is the 'sungai'!!! Blimey, the last time this happened was 4 years ago. Hmmm, I thought the relevant authorities have upgraded all the drainage system within our vicinity and evidently it didn't work... As you guys can see from the pics, even my nephews were taking the day off from school 'enjoying' the sight of water all around them. I can't blame them, I had the same excitement when I was their age.. even older than them I was still splashing around the parking lot whenever we had flash floods at home. Anyways, back to the update... Alot has happended wihthin the life of SandMan, watched tons of movies, the MacBook Pro has been refreshed (pending stock availability... sigh), got my hands on the new Nokia E90, eyeing on a new sportsbike and I'm currently reading the last installment of Harry Potter. All will be elaborated further within my next update... Looking at the bright side, I'm off from work today... But, in the meantime..... all I can see is WATER...
