I DO NOT CHOOSE TO BE A COMMON MAN - A NEW VISION

It is my right to be uncommon, if i can. I seek opportunity, not security. i do not wish to be kept a citizen, humbled and by having the state look after me. I want to take the calculated risks to dream and to build, to fail and to succeed. I refuse to barter incentives for a dole and I prefer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existance! The thrill of fullfillment to the stale calm of utopia. I will not trade freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a handout. I will never cover before any master nor bend to any threat. It is my heritage to stand erect, proud and unafraid, to think and act for myself, enjoy the benefits of my creations and to face the world bold and say.. THIS, I HAVE DONE

An Outdated Post - Edinburgh

My wife n I went to edinburgh n aberdeen during summer 09. forgotten to upload all the pics coz too bz with life after that trip. we had not planned much for this trip n it's kinda an ad hoc event. so, the easiest way to get funding for this trip was to visit the our friendly neighbourhood casino n luckily we got all the funding we need.


Win some money in the game, then off we go to aberdeen n edinburgh

Didn't take many pictures of aberdeen. it's not an interesting city. the buildings are dull n grey. many ships docking there tho. went there for an offshore exhibition where in the middle of the hall, an active mini casino had been setup where it attracted the most visitors. good idea for making an exhibition a success.

Some weird pictures we took during our journey.
right - cheapest B&B in town

Edinburgh is nice! lots of attractions. it seems that all the ancients n long dead are still alive there. i met william wallace by the roadside n managed to convince him to come to swak to fight for our freedom frm the hand of 'he who not to be mentioned n u know who i mean'. william is doing his visa to enter swak. then we also met the last white king of uk b4 being ruled by the Queen now, yes, n again just beside the road too, to b more precise, beside william. last king of england n william wallace r buddies now. Hallelujah! both of them live in edingburgh castle that being protected by the scottish dragoons who dine in the mess run by the red coats.

in n around edinburgh castle

One thing i love bout edinburgh is their spirit of eating! when come to food n drink, morale is not an issue. that's a good motto to live n die for! hahahahahahaha. the other thing is how they treat their military x servicemen. another good idea to bring into msia, of course, i need funding in doing that. any bumiputra partner wanna jv with me. i need them to get watever license kinda hoo-haa frm the local government.

main attractions. the porkie still sleeping, served fresh

Famous local attractions/products - waitress - 'white lemonade, white coffee or our white pussy?'

The local breakfast is a meal one must try! i would strongly recommend to take that meal around 10am or 11am or just at the limit of the end time. it will last till ur dinner, a late dinner for me. it's a nice place to walk around too. the street is full of performers and lots of things to see n a good place for photographers. whenever u see a 'heart' sign on the ground, just kneel down n kiss it k. the local believes that it will bring good luck in ur life for the next 8 years!

exhibition in aberdeen with casino n some northern style food n buildings

CSI on the ground with the 'love' shaped design that one must kiss when see it around edinburgh!

It's a nice place to visit. too bad that we didn't have much time to tour the nearby towns. they have day tour for that n it's cheap too. if one wanna visit edinburgh, i do suggest a 4 nigthts, 5 days trip will just be nice. don't forget to kiss the heart shape where u can find alot when u stroll around there! go chase ur luck!
