From Stockholm to St. Petersburg

Been on the move continuously for the past 28 hours or so – ferry for 16 hours, followed by another 12 on the road… A little ragged and raw, but all better now after a rest day in St. Petersburg… Not much to write since I spent most of the day exploring this historical city [...]

From Hamburg to Copenhagen

First day on the road today, and it’s quite an eye-opening experience driving on the autobahn. There is only a minimum speed limit, and no upper speed limit. So go as fast as you like, but make sure it’s at least 120 km/h. Drove for a little bit today, but the weather is getting me [...]

From Amsterdam to Hamburg

I’ve always wondered when I was a kid, if hamburgers were made out of people who live in Hamburg… Somehow it didn’t make sense that way… I figured maybe hamburgers were invented in Hamburg, then it could also be named so, ehh? Today, my childish thoughts will finally be put to rest, as I head [...]

From Amsterdam with love…

Here are some pictures of me in Amsterdam, although badly jet-lagged and tired now, the city seems to never not interesting… Welcome to Amsterdam No duit gang?? Big shoes to fill kan? Cheese galore! Enjoying lunch at the many canals. ‘Working’ girls. ‘Working’ girl part 2 The ‘red light’ district at night… Till I get [...]

On the road again…

It’s just been forty minutes since I walked into the international terminal of KLIA. The pain of missing you has already begun… It’s inconceivable, how I can be in physical pain from an intangible feeling of missing you, and in such a short span of time, it’s already starting… I suppose it’s because I know [...]

On politiking…

Heard the news that SAPP will be tabling, or supporting a vote of no-confidence against AAB on Monday. Really now? Even after the bag of goodies landed in Sabah fairly recently? Quoted below, is Ku Li’s stand on the matter : For months I have been telling Umno and the Prime Minister about the people’s [...]

On smoking…

*sigh* Been waiting for that one person in my life to quit smoking… It’s been almost a decade now, but it’s the one promise that hasn’t been fulfilled… I know you’re working on it… So, just a gentle reminder, these are a few ads from the Australian Anti-smoking campaign… If these ain’t scary, I don’t [...]

On art…

I’ve never been a very ‘artsy’ person myself, so perhaps I find it a little difficult to bend my head around artistic concepts, other than the really obvious ones that a kid in kindergarten could spot from three miles away, hence I sometimes find it mind-boggling to see what people spend on works of art… [...]

On the fuel price hike…

The first major protest was held last Friday, to begin just after Friday prayers. Being a weekday, not many were ‘demonstrating’ their displeasure, but the powers-that-be came out in full force anyways, to maintain order… Or so they claim… The truth being, it felt like intimidation. I suppose it was psychological warfare, as the sight [...]

On being relevant…

I will let this image speak for itself… You never know, taxpayer’s money, which is technically your money and my money, might have been used to purchase these… Wondering whether there is a Dummy’s Guide to retiring? – Jasmine.
