Minor Site Enhancement
I just re-did my site, featuring several minor enhancement. For those who have noticed, now my homepage is filled with stuff. Head to my home and see what is it like 
Among the cool stuff in my homepage are:
- Featured Work. Now I get to show off 2 of my latest work.
- My Bookmarks. Powered by del.icio.us. I recently got addicted to social bookmarking. Yes people, add me to your network! Let’s share some cool links!
- My Flickr. Obviously, it is powered by Flickr. I am not so much of an avid photographer, but I just wanted to share my pictures
Future plans? Put a Miri Bloggers Digest, alongside with my bookmarks and Flickr. I tried implementing it using the MiriCommunity’s Bloggers List feed, but it doesn’t turn out good. Somehow Wordpress’s get_rss function throws some PHP error that I don’t even understand, so I can’t debug it. It is a valid feed. Just that it is not friendly with Wordpress I guess. Well, I guess I have to create my own list and digest on my own. Besides, I will be working on a Miri Bloggers Community, something very similiar to Penang Bloggers.
That’s about it. :happy:

Getting too Old…
Have you ever like go for a shower, start showering, and found out you forgot your towel?
It just happened to me just now. There was no one around, so I was like running naked to where my towel is, which is around 10 meters from the bathroom, and ran back to the bathroom. I’m not even 20 and I start forgetting things already! OMG!

Malaysia, No Safety First?
I haven’t write anything for weeks. Today is a freaking hot day to write something. Talking about Sundays…
I’m sure everyone knows this really short yet important phrase, “Safety First”. It’s on the TV, radios, public community service announcement and whatnot. I remembered the “Don’t Drink and Drive” advertisement on TV when I was young. Its message is clear, it conveys the danger of driving when you’re high on alcohol.

Sadly, our Malaysian national car makers is not practicing safety first. As I know, if you want a car with maximum safety, you have to pay more for it. All those safety features that is the standard in the US is something premium for the Malaysian. Air Bags is a standard safety features for cars in the US. Malaysian car? It’s not. It’s in the premium edition.
Looks like those car makers couldn’t care less about the drivers’ safety eh? Well, I’m not saying Malaysian drives car like barbarian, knocking down street lamps and trees by the road, and then blame the car makers for all the deaths caused in a car accident. No. I just think that it is unreasonable for the consumer to pay more to get a car with at least air bags.
I should be glad because safety belt is part of the standard safety feature in Malaysian car. If I were to pay more just to get safety belt in my car, I am not so buying Malaysian car.
