ASIMO to Penang

Image
There is a special event in Penang Queensbay Mall over this weekend, the famuos robot ASIMO is visiting Penang and has its roadshow there. Well... what ASIMO is? It is short form of "A Step in Innovative Mobility", which is a robot created by Honda engineers, it can do a lot of things, talking, walking, running, dancing, drawing (well... I rather say this as recognising colour), kicking a ball, serve beverage and so on. Although all ASIMO's activities are pre-programmed, so that't there it can move and do those actions, but this is quite an amazing invention, our robot is close to humanize for time being. After reading the booklet about ASIMO, I found full of amazing in this robot, actually this project is developed since 1986 for 22 years until now. Honda enigneers are started with it's legs movement correctness and this took them for ten yeats plus to improve it. After knowing this, I just found that innovation really takes time, the greater your innovation, the...

AIDS Walk and Flora Festivel

Image
Saturday of 29th November, it was another day for us, SL and I signed up for an activity of our company, AIDS Walk, this walk is raising for World AIDS Day on 1th of December, to raise awareness on AIDS. However, it was raining dog and cat at the morning, this made our spirit cold down a bit. Anyways, we still continue with the activities, everything was starting with aerobic for us and public, haha... it was fun on every movement, I couldn't believe that SL also dance with music. We started with walk at 8:30am, whole route is about 1.5km, and rain was continue to wash us, SL held the umbrella for us, but my shoes still started getting wet. Finally, we completed our routemap in about 30 minutes. There was breakfast prepared for us at the end spot and we took our breakfast under raining (it was not too heavy to ruin our breakfast). However, we felt uncomfortable to stay longer with wet shoes under rain, so that we decided to move. According to a friend, we knew there was a Flora Fes...

My New Hair Style :D

Image
After getting married, I am thinking to cut my hair for long time, however I was so funny because that is kind of a trend for married girl to have hair cut after wedding, therefore I always stop myself for hair cutting, haha... I just don't like to follow the trend. However, it was really inconvenience for having long hair, therefore I was thinking to cut it short recently, it took me a few weeks to make decision. First, my hair always drops, this makes my bedroom and toilet would be quite messy sometime, because I could see my hair everywhere after short period of cleaning, I think this is a problem with long hair :( Second, I would find my hair always disorganised because it was too long and hard to keep it neatly. When I was thinking on some solutions in office, I always couldn't stop myself to scrub my head and this always lead my hair to be kind of messy. Third, I know that I could tie my hair to make it neatly, however it took me a lot of time on tieing it, I would always...

Image
It's another full day for us, we were doing a lot of things from day to night, visiting varies places, ate, saw until listened to musical performance, it's a meaningful day, we started like Hong Kong Tourism Centre, they really do a lot of program to attract their tourists to make sure we are having memorable moment in Hong Kong. At our first day to Tim Sha Tsui, we saw TV was promoting the Flower Show would be held coincidently with our staying period in Hong Kong, therefore we planned forward to visit this festival by this day. We departed to Victoria Park in Causeway Bay at the early morning, There were a lot of flowers exhibited in the Park, we think this is really rare in Hong Kong :P therefore, we took a bunch of pictures in the park. Honestly, this is really a special experience in Hong Kong, also it's my first time to visit a Flower Show, SL also really liked it. We were abled to see some special flowers in Hong Kong Flower Show, we couldn't stop to take picture...

Day 5 in Hong Kong (19/3/2008 Musuem)

Image
Wednesday as we read from our tourism book, it told us that most of musuems in Hong Kong are free of charge, this would save us some money for the trips. We used whole of daytime with walking among musuem. Luckily, those entrance free musuems are located nearby in Kowloon, therefore we didn't spend too much time on getting from a musuem to another musuem. And this is near to our hotel and this makes us easy to reach. We woke up in the morning for our musuem visit, we needed to go through a shopping mall before we reached to Space Musuem and we saw that is a exhibition of old style car in the mall, it is beautiful and we couldn't stop to take some pictures with it. See, don't you think it is cute? After photo session with the car, we proceeded to Space Musuem immediately, but we found that it would only open at 1pm, therefore we changed our plan to visit Art Musuem first and returned to Space Musuem after lunch, as Art Musuem just beside of Space Musuem. While we reached to ...
