Kota Kinabalu trip with friends

It was my first trip to KK. Went there via AA with hubby gang :D

 

We bought groupon for sutera harbour resort room. The room view was spectacular! I didn’t manage to watch sunset with my dear hubby though …. :( may be next time.

Do try sutera harbour resort char kaoy teow … It was one of the best I ever eat. Much much better than madam kwan.

If you the type that love cakes and pastries, do hang out at they lounge. The pastries are fresh baked on daily basis and it varies from day to day.

Kelly Moore B-Hobo

Finally after nearly 2 months, I got a lil bit of time to write a post on my blog. I managed to get my Kelly Morre B-Hobo bag from http://www.techgarage.my/ .

I used it for my Hat Yai trips on early of this month, and it performed beautifully as expected!  Kelly Moore B-Hobo bag has some great features that I really enjoy.  Do you want to know what does my Kelly Moore B-Hobo holds? I manage to stuffed the following item for my trips:

  • One Nikon D300s with 16-85mm attached to it
  • Gadget Charger : Battery + iPad/iPhone
  • Iphone
  • Passport
  • Long Wallet
  • Ipad Camera Kits
  • CF/SD Card Case
  • iPad 2
  • Lens UV and CPL Filters
  • 1 Novel
  • Compact powder + lipsticks
  • 1 small mineral water

I’m really happy that it holds my favorite stuffs comfortably. It fit the purpose I had in mind when I was considering it which is a Camera bag that does not look like one and at the same time act like my handbags. I got a lot of compliment from peoples on my Kelly Moore B-Hobo bag. They were so surprise when I told them that it’s a camera bag not a handbags.

I’m thinking of getting different color of Kelly Moore bag may Azure or Coral. Hubby *hint*hint*. I hope  http://www.techgarage.my can bring more cheerful colors in.

So if you are interested on buying Kelly Moore range of bags from Malaysia, I would recommend you to get it from http://www.techgarage.my/ as I heard they are bringing in more color and style soon. Based on my purchase experience, they provided excellent customer service and answer my queries promptly.  When my Kelly Moore bag arrived, I was wow and excited on how it was wrapped. I’ll post some of my pics with my Kelly Moore bag once I got the time to transferred them from my CF cards. As of now this is the only pic I got in my TP.

New Camera Bag…

I’m in search for a new camera bag … This time I’m looking for a bag that don’t really look like a camera bag or scream “I’m with a camera”

My choice would be :

1. Epiphanie Bags – Red/Black Lola

2. Kelly Moore – Either B-Hobo or Classic

 

I found out that I can purchase Kelly Moore in Malaysia but till date I’m having problem purchasing it. I saw YL selling it but when I went to their shop, they don’t really have stock for B-Hobo. They only have black.

Then I bump into http://www.techgarage.my/ and saw that they are selling Kelly Moore B-Hobo as well and they happen to have mustard, black and teal but…. I’m having problem with their online cart. Everytime I click on I want it it redirect to the cart … then when I click on chek out button it say my cart is empty. …

I guess I need to buy it from www.kellymoore bag.com and wait for it to arrive but since I’m paying for the international shipping I’m torn between Epiphanie Lola Bag and Kelly Moore B-Hobo.

Work Life Balance

Doing jobs well no longer means leaving office or checking out at 5 p.m. The race to complete each day work demand often keeps me glued to my laptop screens or cellphones at all hours.  I’m getting these after-hours intrusions from all angles such as from boss, colleagues and customers. I find it to be extremely stressful and sometimes it’s just excessive.

Customer satisfaction is high but job satisfaction is at a very low point. I’m desperate for better work-life balance. I would need t learn on how to better manage expectations.

In the 24/7 working world, our spouses have to compete with a laptop screen for our attention. Every now and then my hubby would be furious with me. Every time he wanted my attention, I was glued to my cell phone, texting or deleting email. I’m not really a workaholic but these smart phones are so addictive.  I hope he don’t feel lonely, ignored by a spouse who is physically there but mentally in cyperspace. Forcing him to pick up golf and buying him gadgets is just my way of trying to minimize the feeling of being ignored.

I’m allowed to work from home but that doesn’t mean I work lesser hours. I love all the perks of working from home eg: setting my own start and stop times, taking breaks to have lunch with hubby and etc but sometime working from home mean you work longer hours!
