Second Bridge.

A view from the boat on the way to Batu Kawan, which i was on, as the passengers and we saw the based of the Second Bridge.

Recently, i got a chance to see the construction site of the Penang Second Bridge. Yes, the future alternative route which is about 24km long, can link both the state island and mainland together in a few years' time.

My counterparts and i travelled on boat from Batu Maung to Batu Kawan as part of our assignment. And although the authority in-charge, Jabatan Kedua Sdn Bhd said that the overall progress is a little behind schedule, they are confident that the RM3 billion bridge will be completed and up and running in a couple of years' time.

I got to see the piling work, and it is amazing how the base of what would be a huge bridge which commuters would use to travel within the state. Hearing the technicians explaining on how the piling works go, and how the bridge is constructed blow my mind away.

It reminded me about what it was stated in the Bible; that the wise man builds his house on the rocks, and the foolish man built his on sand. Foundation is that important, for it to be a solid structure and to avoid any untoward incident.

The story i wrote did not come out, but it was worth the experience to the a possible monument in the making, which can be told to the younger ones in the years to come.

I was there.

Of wrong cars and splatters.

Sometimes in life, when you're too focus on one thing, you blunder something else along the way.

Work was hectic on Thursday, and i decided to make my way back from the Courts on the island to the office. As i was walking, towards where i parked my car, i pressed the remote, but the car did not unlock itself.

As i got closer, there was still no respond. Repetitive pressing avail to nothing. I started to panic, and took a closer look at the car... only to realise that it was the wrong car! It was an identical silver Myvi SE parked along Love Lane then.

My car was parked a few blocks away. Embarrassed, i quickly moved to my own car, and to my relief, it unlocked as i pressed the remote.

On Friday and yesterday, i caused splatters around the place i stay (by the way, i'm renting a room from my friend Clictus, who's living next door here).

In the first incident, i stepped on a packet of ketchup (maybe), spewing the red sauce all over the wall in my room. Thankfully, it has been cleaned.

In the most recent incident, the splat was a result of a cockroach being slammed unto the wall as it entered the house here. I was focused on destroying the bug, and i delivered.

What 2010 was to me.

Being sandwiched between work and responsibilities, i'm taking a breather to write this down.

Yeah, a lot of people have penned down what last year was to them last year, but i'm doing it now.

Honestly, 2010 was a good year for me. If there's a term to describe how the year was to me, i would say it was a turning point for me.

In those twelve, i've learnt a lot from my relationships with my loved ones and friends, and from events that took place, both good and bad.

I would say i still have a lot to learn, but i've learnt the hard way about taking up responsibilities, resolving conflicts, communications, and what it takes to be a man. Please be patient with me, for God is not done with me yet.

And as i embrace the new year, i take this verse to heart;
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11

What lies before me is unknown and scary, but with God, i place my faith and hope in the One who will bring me through this.

Welcome, MMXI!

Yes, 2011 is here. So long to 2010, and let's embrace the new year with open arms, a open mind and open heart as well venture into the unknown.

There will be a few changes for this blog along the way, but perhaps it's for the best.

Remember, smile!
