To Bumbu Bali, that is… not the actual island. 🙂 It’s a restaurant in Bandar Puteri Puchong, they’ve a few more branches around called Ole Ole Bali. We usually never go out for dinner on a weeknight, but since I just got some (really) good news from my company (for once!), we had to go out and celebrate. We’ve been here twice before, but the last time was more than 2 years ago. I’ve got to say, the food has improved vastly since then. When we came, place was nearly full, even on a Tuesday evening.

So…. after some googling and MSN chats with similarly holiday-deprived friends, I booked myself 4 days in Swiss Garden in Kuantan. And after a busy week of work, Thursday came.

But the one photo that really stuck to my mind is a positive one – it speaks to me how cultured and matured…

Yep I’ve been bitten by the Android fever since I got my new Samsung Galaxy S. I briefly flirted with the idea of getting the iPhone 4, until i found out there’s a 2 month waiting to period to get one. Anyways now when i compare the Galaxy S side by side with an iPhone 4, I really have no regrets on my decision. Having a smartphone (so how do I call all the other phones?
