king-da-ka

by the way, found this picture taken when i was on king-da-ka at six flags lasy year. i didn't even know that i have this picture. i think i closed my eyes all the way up and down the ride, and hold on to my seat like there's no tomorrow. just look at that kadazan man's face. man, that was crazy. by the way, the girl behind started screaming even before the ride started.

sticky & sweet tour

kadazan man is going to watch madonna in concert in october. i got two tickets to watch her concert at the meadowland. didn't think that i would get it because the ticket went on sale in the morning at 9 am while i was at work. came home and i thought and said to myself, "cuba, cuba sajalah. mana tau dapat satu pun cukup gembiralah". aiyoo, instead of one i got two. gembira tak terhingga. hey, i know its the cheapest seat but who cares, at least i could say "i was there" to everyone the day after the concert.

summer time - battery park

i went to battery park on friday evening just to check out things that were going on down there. i know there are normally plenty of concerts, shows or exhibitions going on especially in the summer. i ran into a drum playing class where i found out that you can borrow drums from the park managementor bring your own and join the class. i think they call it the Sunset Jam on the Hudson. at one time, i was sitting on the park bench checking my bag when all of a sudden i heard people running from behind me. i turned around and saw this wall of people coming towards me, jumping over the bench like mad cows. it turned out to be somekind of travelling show or play. i think it is called something like "Shakespeare in the park". apparently, audience had to run after or follow the actors whenever they go and use various location in the park as the backdrop of their play. last but not least, saw one of the waterfall, which is an art installation that will be on display until october. didn't feel like walking towards the brooklyn bridge to check out the other 3 waterfalls. i decided to do that next time.

madoo

went to visit the madoo garden yesterday afternoon. took few pictures and had a nice and relaxing afternoon on july 4 weekend. what more could you ask for.

landlord

we finally kicked out the unwanted tenant living in the grill. that "thing" actually bulked up his cozy abode since the last time i saw it. unfortunately, we had to do the unthinkable. anyway, later i cleaned, brushed and sanitized the grill from top to bottom. several hours later, we had homemade burgers, corn and asparagus for dinner to kick off the 2008 bar-b-que season and it was absolute delicious and tasty:).

osprey

got nothing else to do last sunday and decided to check out the osprey nest on deerfield road. boy was she pissed when the female osprey saw that i was coming too closed to her nest. she was hovering over and kept an eye on me all the time. i was able to snap these pictures when she came back to her nest.

Where the Hell is Matt?

i remember watching this video last year and thought that it was funny and ingenous. back then, in one of the scene, the monks were probably thinking what an idiot he was. check out the second video clip, today everybody wants to dance with matt.
