Flowers

Yellow

"The plains are decorated with
My beautiful colors, and the air
Is scented with my fragrance.

As I embrace Slumber the eyes of
Night watch over me, and as I
Awaken I stare at the sun, which is
The only eye of the day.


I drink dew for wine, and hearken to
The voices of the birds, and dance
To the rhythmic swaying of the grass"


Excerpt from Khalil Gibran's Song of the Flower

Have You Registered?

Prepaid Registration

With 15 December looming near, reminders for prepaid registration had been aired with increasing frequency. Booths had been set up at public places like malls & mosques. But so far I don't see many people registering at such booths. Maybe they registered, maybe not. Anyway, non-compliance would mean that your airtime could be forfeited (much to the delight of the telcos who had to pay incentives to register).

Personally, I advise to register early as your registration might be 'lost' or MIA along the way. As what happened to my registration at Maxis Centre KLCC. I had to come back after I received an SMS stating that I'm still unregistered. That is few months ago, now in the midst of meeting the deadline your registration could be stranded as well. So keep that in mind.

Me? I've registered of course, including my Singaporean SIM card. Heck, they required you to register on the spot even. I had my passport scanned at the 7-Eleven as the pix above.
