Replace Identification Card

I went to Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara today early morning to replace my identification card (Kad Pengenalan) at Petaling Jaya. Maybe I went there earlier, so the whole process only took less than 15 minutes.

The process is pretty simple, go to ticket counter and say you want to do a card replacement and take a number, no need to fill in any form if you doesn't need to change the details on the card. Wait until the number to be called, pay Rm10 processing fees. Then wait again to be called for taking photo.

After that, wait for about 10 days to check for the status online via JPN website, via SMS or call them. That's it.

Back From The Big Bad Book Sale

Just back from The Big Bad Book Sale at Amcorp Mall. A lot of people in the sale hall. There is no shopping cart, so some of book addicts take empty boxes and carry around while they shop for their favorite books.

Had been there for about 2 hours, I also bought myself some books, 3 technical books and 3 business related and self motivate books:

• Essential Mathematics for Games and Interactive Applications, Second Edition: A Programmer's Guide (RM15)
• 3D Game Engine Architecture: Engineering Real-Time Applications with Wild Magic (The Morgan Kaufmann Series in Interactive 3D Technology) (RM20)
• Engineering a Compiler (RM20)
• Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist (RM10)
• The One Minute Millionaire: The Enlightened Way to Wealth (RM10)
• The Rules of Entrepreneurship (The Rules of . . . series) (RM10)

Thinking to go there once more at earlier time the next two days to get more business related or self motivated books.

Did you buy any book there?

Other than the book sale, there are some booths at the ground floor selling iPhone for only RM499. According to the saleswoman, the iPhone is real and imported from Singapore. By looking at the quality of the screen and resolution and the speed of menu navigation, I don't think it is the real one.

Jogging

Ha... back from jogging. Finally got a chance to go for a jogging. I wanted to go for jogging the last few days but each time on my way the garden, it rains! It kept raining this few weeks. Sometime I found it is quite inconvenience.

I always go for a jogging whenever I found a complicated problems in programming or when I want to plan something for long terms. I can think better when I jog compared to if I'm lying on the bed.

Not too bad, no raining today but I would like to happen in the night. Ha

The Movie – 2012

Just watched the movie 2012 last weekend at Pavilion's GSC. Most of the showtimes had been fully book. I got my 2 tickets for 9pm+ show for RM11 only (thanks to the GSC-EON Bank Credit Card). The seats we got are quite front but not too bad because the seats are quite comfortable.
