I was struck when I met one of my clients today and he told me his experience in Malaysia so far & how he cheated death. He was robbed, a week then the next week he met with an accident. (Feng shui tak bagus) The news was actually featured here http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?sec=nation&file=/2011/1/13/nation/7789043

That kept me thinking how our lives are placed into the hands of the taxi drivers once we enter into a taxi.
I realize alot of them are sometimes dreaming while driving, its as though they are immune to driving / some are very impatient drivers.

I remember recently I got into a taxi at Jalan Tun Razak on the left lane and immediately he cut all the way to the right lane. And a 1 ton lorry was driving very fast at the right lane pressing on his brakes hard & horn all the way & I quickly turned back to look with fear in my eyes praying that he could stopped in time, lucky me he did & went to the left. The taxi driver was calm & cool, turn left & have a look with no special facial expression as if to him is normal, how ignorant!!

Another occasion happened just recently which is really a joke. I was at Jln Sultan Ismail, waving for a taxi, went in told him Double tree hotel, not sure what he heard, he tried correcting me while on the ride. Saying that my pronunciation was incorrect for “tree”, but it can’t be. Then I say “tree” a few times and insisted it was right. Haha, then he ask it is the 1,2,3 the 3 right? I say no, then he ask how to spell the tree? So I told him, and he told me, later you see the spelling at the hotel which is off course “tree” and not 3/three you can see it clearly at the logo that is two trees joint together.

So there you go, a few of the dangerous & amused taxi rides

A typical outlook of my mornings in the lrt, I can see more people reading these days. Be it on their iPhone or simply any reading material. I believe that it is a good habit to take up as it updates you & if it’s a book, the author is basically bringing you to his thoughts, imaginations & even life experiences!

As this new year is here for the past 17 days, I’ve reclaimed back my blog as I can blog while I walk. (well not literally but as I’m on the go) . It will definitely gives me the flexibility, with quick & easy access as I’ve just download the iPhone ap, I think this is much easier & faster! Why haven’t I thought of it?

Now, while it’s a new year, new start, there should be a new goals, new achievements to be set!

While I ponder in December of the pass year 2010, there are quite a number of my resolution was achieved!
1) Determine to change my job
2) Lose some weight (which I did after I change my job); came as 2 in 1
3) Move house in 2011 (did it in the nick of time!)
4) Also to increase my knowledge.
(Attended 2 major seminar, which has definitely change my mindset on alot of things)

Now I need to set some new goals for 2011 to make it a fruitful year full of success & accomplishment

Cheers to 2011!!!
