If you are an uncle, you will still be an uncle to your niece or nephew.

GF COMIC | BRIDal EXpo?
When not holding my camera, I will try to inject some kind of everyday humour in this site.
BTW, do not comment on the "stick figure", I know, it is crap, as I never did well in my art classes, but what I wanted to bring out is the message behind it.
And if there is good responses, I might bring out more.
Hope you guys like it ;)

Well, it (BRIDEX) does really seems like a BRIDAL EXPO, loads of people I know think the same.
SEOUL | Hello, Phone Booth?
The simple tin-can on the wall type of thingy.
These are just simple glass walled phone booth, yet practical, complete with stainless steel bench, good idea, so that, people will talk more.
Pedestrians passing by the red phone booths at the vicinity of Seoul Museum of History.
A phone booth is also a good place to meet up, why call on the phone when you can just meet up?
Speaking of phone, remind me some of The Simpsons' quote:
Homer: "... Operator! Give me the number for 911!"
Chief Wiggum: Uh, no, you got the wrong number. This is 9-1…2.
Moe: Yeah, Moe's Tavern, Moe speaking.
Bart: Is Jacques there?
Moe: Who?
Bart: Jacques, last name Strap.
Moe: Uh, hold on. [to everyone in the bar] Uh, Jacques...Strap...Hey guys I'm looking for a "Jock strap". [laughs from all] Oh... wait a minute...Jock strap?!... It's you isn't it, ya cowardly little runt? When I get a hold of you, I'm gonna gut you like a fish and drink your blood!
Bart: Is Mister Freely there?
Moe: Who?
Bart: Freely, first initials I. P.
Moe: Hold on, I'll check. Uh, is I. P. Freely here? Hey, everybody! "I pee freely"! [the customers laugh] Wait a minute... Listen to me you lousy bum. When I get a hold of you, you're dead. I swear I'm gonna slice your heart in half!
Homer: You'll get that punk someday, Moe.
Moe: I don't know. He's tough to catch. He keeps changing his name.
SIEM REAP | Templed Out? Why Not?
So what I did was, I walked the Siep Reap town area thru, and was amazed by their amusing yet creative signages.
Here sharing with you are just a few of them.
When you are out in the ruin, stumbling upon "Lara Croft" might be a dream come true, but stumbling with 3 "Lara Crofts" in the town?
And after those major temple exploration, no one should miss the most famous temple.
No argument here, the Famous Temple of all!
Or otherwise, you can go and hang-out at the Boom Boom Room! Heya Heyo, shakey boom-boom vroooom.
This one I found quite creative, I assumed combining the ancient name of Cambodia i.e. Kampuchea with cappuccino, or perhaps Kampung (village) + cappuccino i.e. a traditional village's coffee, hence Kampuccino.
As Cambodia was once under the Pol Pot regime, thus for does who wanted to feel how it is like to eat inside a prison, you can experience dining within the jail/ prison bars, and no worries, no criminal records will be kept here.
But of all, this is the "coolest" place to dine-in, as the name says, Cool Corner Pizza Restaurant.
So Why Not? Plus Hotsports!? WiFi!
Such bill as above are ubiquitous. Land for "sell", sometimes it made me confuse, whether to sell or for sale?
Otherwise, if you are tired of having coffee or such, you can go online at this eer, Potential Computer School, well they have got potential, but still unproven, or this is not a computer school, but it has a potential to be one, depending on how you interpret the sign thou.
But never be worried, technology is everywhere, even if it is in the rural villages, under the coconut tree, with a bare dirt ground floor, technology can be seen taking off.
So, Why Not?
RANDOM | Who is Bruce Pee?? .. and what diet ..?
... But .. who the heck is Bruce Pee??
.... anyway..... here are something to start off your week ....
HEALTH QUESTION & ANSWER SESSION
Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life; is this true?
A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it... Don't waste them on exercise . Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap.
Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?
A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And a lamb chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance of vegetable products
Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?
A: Well, if you have a body and you have fat, your ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc.
Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program?
A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain...Good!
Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
A: You're not listening... Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil. In fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more vegetables be bad for you?
Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle?
A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.
Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
A: Are you crazy? HELLO Cocoa beans! Another vegetable. It's the best feel-good food around! !
Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.
Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle?
A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape! !
Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.
NOTE: The above is not an accurate answer for the question, I am not going to be held responsible for any of the responses. If you believe everything you read, then you should know by now that the word "Gullible" has never ever been stated in the dictionary nor any thesaurus nor any encyclopedia.
RANDOM | The Yellow Hat..
Which reminded me of a real life story.
It was during my very early days working as an Engineer, and as a "fresh Engineer" I was very eager and looking forward for my first real-life site visit, (thou during uni life we did attended many site visits and even a week of Survey Camp and a week of Geology Camp), yet this is the real deal.
As part of the project in undertaking the Chartered Engineer status, one must be involved at least in one major project.
So few days before our site visit, my supervisor informed me to get prepare,including to have all the necessary safety gear.
Hence, soon after that, I went for a "shopping spree", got myself a new pair of steel-toe shoes with those heavy duty soles and obviously a safety helmet!
Whilst picking and deciding for the safety hat, which have many colours, so I said to myself, I'll just get the yellow one, since it is quite striking(so safety purpose meh it can be seen from thousand of meters!)
When the day of site visit came, proudly adorning my new gear, something seems amiss, something does not look right, it seems I was the odd one out, the rest of the colleague (I was the most junior at that time) was wearing a white safety helmet or blue but not yellow! The only yellows that I saw was worn by all the site workers!
Few minutes into the site, I was then approach by one of the seniors, he then whisper to me," Eh lain kali jangan u pakai safety hat kuning ani ah..."
".. eh napa nya... inda dapat kah ...?" I then asked
".. hehe .. bukannya apa ... arah kitani ani.. biasanya .. kuning ani .. kena pakai oleh kuli ganya.. kalau macam Engineer macam kitani.. biasanya makai Putih ... konpius orang karang .... "
" ... hahaha ... no wonder ....."
Well, that was the last day I wore that safety hat, and I don't know where it is now, malas tak ku ingau jua ... hahaha... something that I will remember forever ....
So guys, now you know, which hat is which. Some stuffs you really can't get it from school!
PHOTO WHAT? Play With Me | No Smorking | Pink Undies
Something to brighten up you week ahead, Don't Laugh!
These are just some photos that makes you go ... eeermmm... eh what ... or the like ....
Taken with the CamFone, this one was found locally, not so sure if they really know what they are selling.
PLAY WITH ME ANYTIME WITHOUT REASON!
Man ... do the person wearing that shirt, or any shirt with such text really means what they said?
If they do, I am in! HAHAHA
Or do they "understanding Engrish?", Just like this below, Which I found while traveling to Japan, in one of the posh areas in Tokyo.
With the Tobacco Order in place now, so I declare this area a "NO SMORKING" area.
But the Top Photo What? Should be given to this photo, not really sure the origin of this, I bet most people have seen this photo, been circulating via email and stuff, hence I don't really know who took this photo, for sure it wasn't me!
So the award goes to..... (promise me not to laugh)

... eerrrmmm.... what is wrong with this photo btw .... ?
Have a good week ahead u all .. ;)
RANDOM | iRambut for $39.99
I bet, when people see his hair people will say: "Ai Rambutnya ah ... atu nya! ", hence the title iRambut!
Not so sure how much it cost to style it as such, but the amount was intentional, just to mock the latest craze in grocery adverts, i.e. .99 this and .99 that!
People will thought, " iRambutnya tiga puluh labih saja! ", (thirty something only), when in fact, it is $40!
So customer beware, caveat emptor!
RANDOM | Mind of the Photographers?
Yeap, it looks just like any other ordinary photo, which anybody can take.
But what I wanna share is this, at the back of the mind of some, they are wondering, what is in the mind of the photographers?
Well, I can tell you this "little".
Now look carefully at the next photo, below.
So now you all tell me what is your interpretation of the photo above. ;)
RANDOM | B&W | Two Guys & One Girl
How many times have we miss taking a photo opportunity, when something interesting happens? Loads!
Some moments cannot be described by words alone.
The above photo is an example of such, being there the right place the right moment.
The guy at the foreground, Timmy (not his real name) is adjusting his pants, and glancing at the sweet lady, An-Julie (not her real name) on the phone by the wall, but the "guy-on-the-wall", let us just call him Ariwibowo Yudhoyuno, are also looking at Timmy, giving an impression, as if saying " Hei you, You staring at my girl, watcha lookin' at eh?"
Don't y'all think so?
RANDOM | Projek Angkasawan?
Or is it something old, but getting a new facelift?
In certain part of the world, the exterior looks hundred years old, or they are in fact really that old, but inside, very hi-tech, sometimes, even more sophisticated than your home!
And speaking of angkasawan (astronaut), there's this Minister interviewed by the press, the Minister known for his alter-ego, answered each question very arrogantly, until these Q&As were highlighted:
Press: So what is this extra special project for our astronaut?
Minister: Don't worry, ours is very unique, no one has ever tried it before.
Press: And what is that uniqueness?
Minister: Instead of going to the moon, we, our astronaut will go to the sun!
Press: But, Sir, that is quite impossible, do you know how hot the sun is? Long even before they reach it, the metal will melt!
Minister: Ah! That's where our uniqueness, we will travel during the winter night!
Press: ?????
RANDOM | The Origin of Sushi ...
.. look at the photo ... familiar ...? What is it ...? (No ... don't scroll down first ... but oh what the... I know you'll just do it anyhow .... ) ....
... here it goes ...
..... before the World War ... the Japanese ... traveled all over the world to gain knowledge ... yeap ... knowledge ....... no.. nope ... not Knowles ... that is Beyonce Knowles ..... btw ..... knowledge ... in whatever way it might be .... technology .... lifestyle .... including foodstuffs ...
... so during their occupancy in Brunei .... they found out about our local delicacies ... which includes ... yeap .. u guess it .... Pulut Panggang .... ( steamed stuffed rice wrapped in leaves)
.. from the above photo .. u can see there's a whole load of similarities between Brunei's Pulut Panggang ... and the so called Japanese Sushi ....
.. but as time goes by ... and the people .. are more and more innovative ... and of course ... more health concious ... so ... the Japanese .. they improvise the delicacies .... exchange the dried prawn in the pulut panggang to a healthier raw fish or salmon ... then exchange the leave wrap .. to the edible seaweed ....
.. so ladies and gentlemen .... there you go .... the origin of sushi ... believe it or not .... ;)
NOTE: This is based from my research and finding, the actual fact needs to be studied thoroughly.
