“For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin–real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life.”
Olla, Tirut here. I am the owner and writer of Being Tirut at Labunda.net. In the daylight, I am just like millions of other Malaysians, waking up in the morning and rushing to work hoping to avoid the bad traffic jam in the city. In my spare time and when I feel like it, I BLOG - anything about investments, properties, humor, my personal stuff, traveling, computers, gadgets, technology, money matters and many more. These are some of the interesting topics that I like to talk, think and discuss with my friends.
Other than my day-to-day job, I like to infuse my mind with creativity and innovation. In short, I love anything that revolves around: traveling, finance, property, arts, web & internet, music, gadgets, photography, etc. I am also an avid traveler (mostly from my work, if not, why would this kampung boy even travel - No Money!). And to make things more interesting, here are some of the places that I’ve been to (as far as I can remember la..)
