New Year 2010 is blasting on ...

Corner Talk: Three weeks has passed after working in Line 10 with B777-200 from Middle East. No joke, but true, I have been tying the typical "clovehitch knot" on the aircraft's cables for the last five days ranging from big power cable to tiny little wire, long to short ... Spread the wire long, arrange them in bundles properly, put their markings and then, tie them up using the tough polyester lacing chords. Up till this afternoon, I managed to finish all of them. Phew, finally ... Huge satisfaction. This aircraft is going for IFE modification, so, all the old cables will need to be replaced with new ones. Hehe :) Everyday is a learning process, I would say to sum up my experience in Line 10. Haha :)

When clock strikes 12 o'clock tonight
on 31st December,
peopel around the world cheer and wish each other
a Happy New Year!
For some, this event is no more than change
in calendar page.
For others,the New Year symbolizes
a new beginning for a better tomorrow.

Another fresh new year is here!
Another year to live on,
to banish doubt, worry and fear ...
to love, laugh and give.

This bright new year has given me,
to live each day with zest.
To daily day grow and be,
my highest and my best.

I have my opportunity,
once more to do the right and less wrongs,
to pray for World's peace,
to sing the joyful songs,
in the pursuit of happiness,
I shall;
strive and aim high in career
be a better man in the eyes of family and friends
and search for my other half ...


~ Happy New Year 2010! ~

With love,

Christmas Movie Marathon

Christmas isn't more about opening the presents under the Christmas tree. For me, it was to catch up with the biggest blockbuster movies of the year; the most sought after show, the most anticipated display on the big screen ... Forget 'bout Transformer 2: ROTF and G.I Joe! Yup, it is Avatar alongside Bodyguards and Assassins that steal the headline to sum up the year 2009. Two shows in two days, watched them with my buddies ... Cool :)

Rumors had said this movie took a total of 15 years to produce. Due to lack of technology years back, the production of Avatar was postponed until today. The storyline is simple, straight forward. Each character has its role of its own, well-defined with clear purposes. The plot of the story is an amazement, led by hero Jack Sully (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saldana). Overall, it is a great movie to watch filled with awesome graphics and animation and actions packed. I suppose to watch Avatar's 3D, but then, the cineplex was so congested that I had to settle with normal Avatar. Oh well ... Still worth a word, man! 3 hours long show, woah ...

Rating: 9/10

Named as Shi Yue Wei Cheng (The Bodyguards and Assassins) centers around the fight for revolution in imperialism China. Set during the last period of Qing Dynasty (1900-an), a group of revolutionists with the inspiration of Dr Sun Yat Seng (Sun Wen) fought to topple the weak Qing Dynasty in order to form a new democracy government, thus, re-witting a new piece of history. Plenty of main characters involve include Donnie Yen (The Gambler/Policeman), Leon Lai (The Beggar), Tony Leung Ka Fai (The Editor) and Nicholas Tse (Ah Si). If you are a fan of kick-the-ass action with cool stunts and extreme martial arts skills, here it is, this movie is a must watch! Don't be surprised to see blood flowing out, splashing apart as if the blood of fountain. Bruises and cut, blood and scars, kill and survive, politic assassinations and spirit of nationalism were themes for this movie. Good show ... At least, it serves to remind us of the hardship and sacrifices of all the nationalists who fight for human rights and the formation of new political system in a country. Close to 3 hours show also, nevertheless, it is another thumb-up movie!

Rating: 8/10

So, what 'ya waiting for?
Head to nearest cinema and go go go; watch the movies ...
They are more than worth a single cent you pay for the show.
Fill your year on high with
the joy and blessing!
Merry Christmas again :)

Cheers,
KeithK :)

Merry Christmas 2009

A Christmas' candle is a lovely thing
It makes no noise at all
But softly, it gives away itself
While quite unselfishly, it grows small
Radiating light of hope
Relinquishing the Stars of fortune
The spirit of joy filled the air,
Wishing you all a very happy Merry Christmas 2009

Bless us Lord,
this Christmas with;
quietness in our mind,
patience,
always be kind,
to love more but to hate less,
to contribute more but to ask less

A little smile,
a word of cheer,
a spoonful of love from someone near,
a gift from one held dear,
best wishes from coming year ...

Always,
KeithK :)

Let's the Angels Sing ...

Corner Talk: I was sitting on my study desk this afternoon that I realized that my calendar is on the last page; yes, it is in the month December - a month of winter, holiday, Christmas and New Year. Time flies, that's what everyone is talking about. However, what's matter most is, how much you have achieved this year before you draw it a close and begin with a new chapter? Have you grown up? Have you mature with time? Or it is merely just another months and years for you? Come, let's look into ourselves, reflect back ... It is a time for self-evaluation :)

Before I ever knew Taylor Swift's Teardrop On My Guitar,
this lovely singer used to put sunshine on my day
with her hitz Jesus Takes The Wheel.
Yup, she is Carrie Underwood ...
Here is another beautiful classical Christmas Song from her -
Hark! The Heralds Angels Sing ...

Like this song very much,
Christmas is just around the corner ...
Have you bought your present to your loved on?
Let's not measure the gifts,
but, the best blessing will be
celebrating with family members around,
laughing, caroling, enjoying ...

Have a wonderful Christmas celebration!
Season Greetings from,

Kiwi Icy Shake in Kepong

Corner Talk: Third week in MAS will begin tomorrow as we all are sent down to the floor. I will be assigned to Line 11 Hangar 4 for B737-400 aircraft. Last hangar, so far and isolated from others. Tools box, torch-light and uniforms are all set, let's get rock and rumble ... This coming Tuesday, I will be having my second assessment oral with Hj Khairudin for another 3 sets of tasks. My target will be finishing all the assessments by first quarter of next year 2010. Gonna work hard for license in hands soon ... Malacca's road trip was fun, with everyone was having an awesome time with laughter and joy. Food, food and more food for the whole day. Pictures will be uploaded once I got them from my friends ... Haha :)

My roommate, Wei Liang brought me
to this tiny little wooden shop in Kepong
for this ...

" Kiwi Icy Shake "

Topped with "Sago" with Icy Shake base,
this Kiwi Icy Shake is indeed a pleasure dessert.
The slices of Kiwi are juicy and sweet,
nice nice nice ...

Behind: Mango Icy Shake

Plan to go back again to Kepong
for another round.
It is just so tempting ...
For a reasonable price,
you cant any other way to
quench your thirst ...

Cheers,
KeithK :)

A new chapter in Journals ...

Corner Talk: Yesterday, took a break from hectic schedule of training (just an excuse to myself) to go all the way down to KLCC for PIKOM KL PC Fair 2009. Well, my intention is to buy the Broadband Wireless Router together with my housemate,Wei Liang. So, here we go, took the LRT from Taman Bahagia to KLCC. Thanks to Hing for his ride. LRT was packed as if sardine can. Upon arrival, there were tonnes of people rushing into the convention centre. Cameras and DSLR were hanging on boys' neck. Short skirts, V-Shape, skinny models, hot chicks, woah ... My eyes just cant stop searching for new targets. Ok, I must admit, these tricks behind all the mimic of advertising has been exploiting the power of "FEMALE". Why not? A pretty chick with sexy body approaches you, and up, you are hooked to their stall for good. Even I am tempted to get a Sony MP3 when this girl approached me with a soft and melodic voice. She just melted me away .. Haha :) More pictures to be reviewd soon ... Meanwhile, sit back and be patience!

Last week, was our last day in college; it was somehow, a place where all things were started. From zero, we become someone, form nothing, we become equipped ... Nevertheless, it was all the efforts from our fellow instructors. We have learned, and will still continue learning in new environment; the actual floor in MAS Complex A. We foresee a great obstacle ahead, and we shall cruise together across the ferocious sea ...

Picture with Mr Phang,
the Engine Instructor ...

Woah, see the distortion!
Haha :)

Picture with Mr Edward (L), Instrument Instructor
and Mr Radzi (R), Electrical Instructor
We thanked them for all their guidance and dedication
in teaching us all this while ...
We cherish the time we had together,
Gracious :)


Currently, I am picking up
playing guitar after putting it aside
for a year due to classes and exams ...
Need to polish up otherwise it will rust soon ...
Huge satisfaction when you manage to play
a new song, yeah?

Looking forward for OJT on the floor soon,
there are much more skills and experience to be learned,
to nurture and to mature
before I can reach the pinnacle ...

Cheers,
KeithK :)
