Part of my job...

On top of turbine! Do not stare at my ugly half painted nails! Ignore the butterfly on my sandals!!!

We had turbine inspection last Saturday, so I volunteered myself to come (part of learning laaa). It was interesting to be involved. Well, I was basically looking at them (the Chinese contractor and our technician with turbine engineer) doing verification on all the values. As client, we have to be happy with the result, or else.. DON'T SIGN!! Hehehehehe... well, we have to protect our interest too la!



Well, that is how turbine rotor looks like before it covered with turbine casing...

Standing at the edge of the turbine was actually quite dangerous. It was quite a height. You can see that in the first photo. Anyway, it was not a big deal because you just need to be extra careful. Lucky me... I don't have any phobia with height. Or else, I will be a monkey in the company who will be whining all the time about being scared of HEIGHT!!

Another view... Can you see our quarters?

Today, the turbine will be covered. So, there is no way for us to see what inside until major overhaul ( meaning, big maintenance... open up everything and do all the checking for every single bolt and nuts! It is done maybe once in three years). Unit #1 is done.... Unit #2 is on the way....

Moon...


View from my verandah

I am always fascinated by moon. I even installed a widget to monitor how 'full' is the current moon. Last night, she was 92.9% full. Full moon was on 23, I think (That's according to my widget).

I "zoomed" her...


Anyway, I managed to take some pictures of it. But, it is not doing any justice to it since it is actually more beautiful than what you see on the photo. Maybe I need a BIG torch light so I can illuminate the surrounding.... you know... better lighting to capture the image? HMmm... not so practical right.


Three Japanese girls...

Since I am frustrated with the pictures, I decided to take other picture. Well, I bought these dolls from my trip to Beijing. Nice right? I remember saw these dolls somewhere in Kuching. It was very expensive, like RM200+ each. No way I am going to buy them! Then, lucky me, from my trip to Beijing I was able to buy few of them. I spent RM100 to get five of them!! Hehehehe, what a bargain!


Another two...

Twinkle and her new hair cut!

Twinkle feeding chickens

I cut her hair. Actually, it has been a war between me and her. "Cut hair ok?". "NO!!". She hates it when I try to cut her hair.



Twinkle and Al...

So, luckily on Sunday, I managed to persuade her to cut her hair. The reason was simply, there was a little boy waiting in line to get haircut. So, me and my sister were telling Twinkle how cute and handsome the boy after having his haircut. Twinkle was excited and she also eager to get her own haircut!

Twinkle and her... swing?

I didn't take any pictures of her having her hair cut simply because I didn't want to pissed her off. So, only the 'after' pictures are eligible.
