2014 new flexible bags

This new bag for babies use, saw this one the moment we step into the mall, brand KAPPA, the design quite nice where it can use as a sling ( my fav ) and back pack, the back pack sling can be kept well in a compartment provided. The material is soft and if not mistaken is treated canvas. It cost around RM129.90, great value. Just use it this morning, the shoulder pad was soft but not able to adjust as it is fixed, pros and cons here, sometimes it's just not the place you want them to be depends on how you carry your bag, for me i just normally sling to the back a little. The whole compartment was flexible, I can put in babies stuff and my dslr with one lens. not bad. Well said, for that price and brand I think that's a good bargain. Got get it while stock last, as you know this stuff will change from time to time, including the price as well.

2013 new bag pack for convenience sake!!!

Here is some review about this bag that i've just purchased from a well known shop at Queesbay Mall, they only sells bags, be it leather or canvas, this bag is pretty light and well match with my relatively big body, the material is strong and the seems are pretty stitched well. It has 3 part compartment and look sturdy, it is weather sealed at the zipper area and it is not on sale, i got this for less than RM100.00, good deal.

About shop assistance: nothing to complaint, very polite and helpful, sure to attacked this shop when there is another sale.

check out for now.

2012 Panasonic nanoe

 Due to my boy always got running nose , now we got nanoe to see if it works for him, so after the first day of the installation, the dust indicator turns red and back to blue withch signifies it is really dusty in the room. And the water just runs out, after one day. hmmm...must keep mantining the water...bad bad bad...., well see what happens more days to come.

 

Impressively designed water containers, which have a special design stand, very strange looking but works pretty well

Once you over-turned the container, the legs will be retracted and not being in the way when you put back to its filter body.

 

This is how actually it will stand when you need to refill the water, which in our house, sometimes when the humidity is not good, it will run out in 12 hours. huh!, refilling time, again need to perform a maintenance task..:D

Bags for the non-plastic bag state, Penang

Nowadays, life have change when we go for shopping, there is no more plastic bags being distributed due to environmental issue that we are facing. So I guess we all need to have a bag when we go out to shop. This is what I get for myself, it is on sale, so quickly, I grab it. Never the less, it is very useful. I think everyone should have some bags when shopping in Penang. Albeit, some branded shop will give out paper bags as advertisement for their brand. :) Here is the picture of the bag that I have.

2011 - special present from wife

Out of no where, suddenly, my wife just said to me " Hey, I have something interesting for you". after pondering what it could be...ta..da....its M&M figuring type dispenser. It is pretty interesting, his hat can be opened to fill the tummy with m&m chocolate, and when you press down the left hand it will dispense m&m through the side hole...not sure what is that "hole" represent...anyone??

2011 Caterpillar hiking shoes

already window shopping for a few days in 1st avenue, penang and Carnival Mall, Penang, finally decided on this pair, in Queensbay Mall, Penang. At the world of sports as they are have come sales, for this one is on 40% sale and that is not the point, my goals is that this shoes that I need will be able to provide a good grip on the floor during hiking, be able to protect my legs from any harm, such as scratched on tree bucks and insects bites, moreover from water to keep my legs dry, and finally not too heavy. I have tried it yesterday and it is really good, feeling of tough protection on the legs and it has bouncing effect, especially you need this during down hill. Well said, there is 2 models currently on sale and size from US10-12 depending on models, and I believe it will be taken up pretty soon, especially with the 40% discount. So if you go hiking, this is really a recommendation.

2011 Lois Boots for rain protection

Apparently it was raining almost quite everyday here, so decided to get a shoe that can provide protection to water. One day we went to Queensbay Mall and saw this boots and tried it on. After a while, I decided on this model as I fits me pretty well. Low heel and close cut, leather (according to salesman) I do not think so. Some parts maybe. Overall very comfortable. So decided to own it. Fist ever.

2011 USB Cables

With the cable below, now this china made reader seems to be working now..!!

this is the new reader I thought that will work with the new cable, but fail.



Ok here is the thing, first bought a cable from some computer shop for 1.5 meter, tested using it for the USB card reader, fail to response, but works fine for thumb drive. Later went and bought this 3 meter ones from Digital Bay, QueensBay Mall Penang for rm15.00 same price with the 1.5 meters cables earlier. Now, I tested it out, using the China Made USB card reader...alakazaam..it works. Apparently, suspect, one of my USB ports is a lilttle funny, so I switch it to another one that cause it to work. Here is the thing, a locally made 1.5 meters fail to work buy a proper factory made cables is ok. So guys, try to get a better quality cables to save you a lot of time and $$.

Will be publishing more photos for better explanation soon.

2011 Levy's Guitar Strap

Yes, finally got it, after searching for some time, I finally found this strap for my guitar, by searching through left and right ups and downs...huh...finally. Well where?, that is the question, well, at Gurney Plaza, never thought that there is a huge music instruments shop there selling various kind of music stuff ranging from trumpets to drums, even kids drum :), my wife is planning to get to my twins, well, back here, the brands ranging from Yamaha to Fenders plus some china brands which I do not recommend. :), well if you are on a tight budget, that is the way to go, else spend your hard earn $$ on something more substantial and quality which can last you a life time, even as a heritage to your kids, who knows!. Well as said so, found this nice guitar straps on this year 2011 it cost me Rm85.00. So to all musicians, pro or amateur here is the place to go in Penang, Gurney Plaza, if you do not know ask around, most till know that place. Happy music strumming and relax.

2011 Yamaha Guitar

Let me introduce to you all my new guitar. Apparently not all guitars are the same, especially the sound quality, I compare my old one and the new , totally different in ergo, sound and such nice acoustics if you can spend a little more.

well the reason I get this is I found it to be very therapeutic when you play, it relief stress. perhaps due the the massage on your finger tips when you pressing the strings!!. just a guess, but all means very good to have a guitar and know how to play, would be wonderful to pass some time.

As for the tuner, which I am very new to it, usually i tune manually, taught to be my father's friend, Uncle Foo, he is a nice guy and can play such nice guitar, he is still playing with the church band when free. If you want to learn a few tricks, you can patronized his stall at Fettes Park market during morning. He is selling Chee Cheong Fun (rice noodle) there and it is quite nice too. So back to the tuner, it took me some time to figure out how to use that, apparently you need to see it indicates, 1E, (string 1 E), 2B, 3G, 4D , 5A and 6E, it is actually the chord of each string. huh never taught that we still need to figure you that when you purchase this automatic tuner...man...it supposed to work automatically, and telling you what is the correct tuning...duh!. Ok. hope this is useful. :D

New waist pouch

Since my pouch is old and problem with the zippers, I decided to get a new one, just went to Queensbay Mall with family (my twins+wife+mil), and get this Travel Blue waist pouch, supposed to be a good quality, as the interior is water resistance and specially design for travelers. Not much choice anyway, and seems this is the one most fit my usage, with side pocket for coins, nice!. with double partition and there is a lot of nice deviders in the fronts pockets with a key chain build in. ah..plus a pocket for normal phone, just wondering if Iphone can fit in?? ah one more thing, this carries a 24 month warranty.
