This week has been crazy busy for me! It’s insane. For one, I’ve had the ChurpChurp team from Singapore down all week having meetings with us here in Malaysia to work out how to make ChurpChurp.com better.
New Office
I’ve also been really occupied with the renovations of our new office. Our current office ran out of space, so we took over the next door unit, broke down the wall and joined it with our old one. That gives us just a little bit more space for a casual meeting room of sort and more workstations. For the ID and the layout of the office, I decided to let some of the Nuffies decide how they wanted it to be like.
This is Raessa in our new office that’s still being renovated.
Along with some of the other Nuffies, she’s been responsible for choosing everything from the furniture to the colour of the pillows of the room.
The Tesco of Table Tennis Equipment
Last weekend I decided to pay a visit to this table tennis store somewhere in a part of KL I had never been to before in my life. I was going there to buy a new bat for Gin for his birthday. It was amazing! Maybe because I only have the shops in Penang to compare it to but it was the largest table tennis equipment shop I had ever seen. So many different kinds of rubber, wood, balls etc etc. Oh the reason behind the rubber and the wood is that in table tennis, a lot of players don’t buy ready-made bats. They buy the wood and the rubber separate and then have them put together to customize their own bat.
I was taking a look at this piece of rubber that was supposed to be really expensive. Almost RM200 or something… didn’t buy it though. When I got home though I realized that they had accidentally put it in the plastic bag that I used to keep the bat I bought for Gin.
So I called them up and promised that I would go back and return that RM200 piece of rubber that I didn’t pay for. Didn’t manage to do it all week because I’ve been so busy so okay I guess I’ll do it this weekend.
My Recorded Shows
Another thing I’m going to try to do this weekend is catch up with all the shows I recorded on my Astro B.yond PVR. I went crazy the other day recording all the documentaries I could find and they’re all saved in the Hard Disk now. Just have to find the time to watch them. It’s actually really great and something I really use. So much that I kinda regret having it installed on the other side of my apartment where my brother and sister are. Should have had it installed right in my bedroom. Heh…. maybe I’ll get another one.
So it’s going to be a busy weekend for me.
