HTNet - A Notepad of Tech, Business, Science and Self Improvement

I’m currently posting this from a slow dial up connection so I got to make this real quick. Here’s wishing all HTNet regular readers a happy and prosperous Chinese new year! May the year of the rat bring us good fortune all year ’round.

And now, back to my scheduled CNY break

If you wear a watch, don’t look at it while reading this!

Now answer this question: Does your watch have numeric, roman numerics or no numeric indicators on its face?

While everyone else is preparing for their Christmas holidays, I’m back from my somewhat long leave. And before I forget, Happy Aidiladha to all Muslim visitors of HTNet.

This long and mostly offline holiday have given me some energy and a lot of enthusiasm! I’m itching to write some posts on a variety of topics, and believe me, they will be coming onto your browsers and RSS readers very soon.

So how did I spend my holidays? Well, to be honest it’s all wallet-intensive travels. I went shopping in IKEA, One Utama, The Curve and KLCC. I also visited Zoo Negara and Petrosains… so there’s a dose of edutainment in it as well

The only thing that sucks is that I didn’t bring along my camera as I had loaned it to a friend prior to my trip. But I’m sure that this won’t be my last time visiting the places mentioned above.

It’s back to your regular HTNet updates from now on

My current project at work has drained me of the will to look at a computer. Thankfully, I’ll be going for a somewhat long leave from today until Hari Raya Haji. I’ll be in KL during this period.

Maybe I’ll gain some motivation to post a few things here and there during that time, but don’t get your hopes up too high… I know I won’t

One of the most often used pearl of wisdom states that “The pen is mightier than the sword.” At this age of the Internet, I’m pretty sure it should be upgraded to “The keyboard is mightier than the sword.” Nevertheless, pens aren’t only useful for writing, but collecting them can also be a fun hobby!
