Peak of the Pyramid

Budget 2009 announced in the United Kingdom and I think Alistair Darling (UK Chancellor) is trying to be Peterpan – a hero whom steal from the rich and give it to the poor. A 50% tax imposed for those who earn more than £150,000 per annum -  a far from my dream.

It is known that there are 60million people in the UK and this 50% tax only applies to 390,000 people. Alistair said “ those which broader shoulder carry more burden”

I start to ask myself “what are the difference between those bastards and me?” – a broader shoulder . 56 inches.

So, I head to London to seek out how broad their shoulders are and plan to take picture with them

To the Natural History Museum and Science Museum.

At the end of the day. I came back in vain. What I obtained whole day is hundred of pictures and that only 7 stands head and shoulder above the others, which you have just seen it.

The morale of the story is ……

STOP YAWNING!! Go to wash your face …

Easter Break

A long waited break after few months of continuous work for non-stop. Finally I am able to take time off and plan for a short break. Although it was a rush plan, but I think there’s no room for error involve, because I’m going with 2 experienced backpackers and it’s in UK.

Book a room for 3 in Plymouth for Cornwall trip. At this long weekend break, Cornwall will be invaded by tourist.

We managed to visit those places circled there –  Penzence, Tingatel and Whisthy Bay (right next to Land’s End).

IMG_1277_8_9 HDROur guest house is just right next to this ‘The Sound’ and the Barbican. The house keeper said that when everyone is there, they’ll never missed out ‘The Sound’. In fact I found out there’s nothing more than one Lighthouse and a breakwater. I think Swansea is nicer.

IMG_1284_5_6_HDR Nothing interest me more than tried out my first HDR (High Dynamic Range) shot.

We then headed to Cornwall the next morning after the breakfast. Being told on the way to Cornwall be surprise to see windfarm! Without much imagination, I thought of this

IMG_1349HDR  is this…

Some not so pretty view  I got from Cornwall. Cornwall is extremely highly rated by Britons a place for relaxing and camping. They should visit Wales and the mindset of Cornwall is the Best will change immediately.

IMG_1451 copyTried to slow the shutter speed and zoom in to make this valley looks like a waterfall.

IMG_1500 copy copy I love the sky. Blue and White always match the best and is my favorite.

IMG_1488 copy Dawn and dusk always the best for scenery.

It was a short trip. I am slightly regret of why spend money on a so highly rated place which actually look not any better than Wales. Wales has plenty of sheep (more populated than human), cliffs, national park, waterfalls….etc. More importantly, it is cheap. You able to live an apartment facing the sea for a fraction of London’s smallest room. You get the same view like Monaco.

Do your research.

I’m kinda sick and tired to tell the same story over and over again. Hope this is the last time I'll ever repeat.

Firstly, I hope you know that working in United Kingdom is not as glamour as you think. It does not guarantee you to be a millionaire or starve you to death. I am only working as a Graduate Design Engineer for Transmission company. If you have no idea what my work relate to, go watch Ultraman. He uses it as a weapon – pylon.

Many friends in KL expecting my salary is sky high. As if the 4 digit numbers appear on my pay slip is the 4 numbers which exactly match in the newspapers lottery section. In other words, I strike a lottery every month. Do grocery in Harrods, Knightsbridge. Buy clothes in Primark Burberry.

IMG_6513

Always being asked how much do I earn? Frankly, you are starting to piss me off. Make use of the greatest tool ever invented in the century for god’s sake– I-N-T-E-R-N-E-T. You might not get exactly get to know the correct answer on.

Don’t be stupid, you can do a lot research. Search for graduate’s pay, income tax, rental, council tax, public transport cost, grocery. You know how much roughly I earn and how much roughly I spend every month, in no time! I don’t get 4 figures at end of each month and after spending and I left over 6 figures to save.

It’s only 9 months since I started work in this company. Some say that I can afford and own a detached house of RM 5million…=.=" .Donate your brain to those mat-rempit, they need it more than you do.
