Web site statistics are indeed very very interesting and I usually take a peek at my stats every now and then. Even more interestingly is when I am able to find out where my visitors are coming from. Yesterday, as usual, I peeked into the stats and saw a visitor from Guam. Wow! That’s really cool because Guam is located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

Interestingly, Guam belongs to the United States of America and has a population of approximately 170,000. Tourism is their main source of income and their beaches looks very inviting with clear waters and white sandy beaches. I’ll probably book myself to Guam one of these days. To my visitor from Guam, thanks for stopping by.

Shopping in the Damansara area has been made easier and more accessible with the introduction of free shuttle bus service from Kelana Jaya LRT Station to Ikano Power Center and vice versa. The free shuttle service is available daily on a scheduled basis as follows:

Curiosity got the better of me after my previous post about my cousin getting a drivers license having coached by her dad. As I have mentioned, Malaysia driving students need to get professional driving education and lessons unlike citizen in the United States.

So, I checked around the Internet and found out that California driver education course allows teenagers to take lessons at their own pace via their computers. After completing the course and attaining the age of 15½, the teenager can then apply for their learners permit. From here, parents can then coach and teach their children to drive. I really like the California driver education methodology as it allows parents to spend quality time with their teenage children and at the same time, act as a mentor. Comparatively, back here, we are behind time in terms of drivers education methodology.

As I was browsing around the driving sites, I found and couldn’t resist this Driver Education Quiz and attempted it — I passed.
