I'm still happpyyyy.....


Still very happy......From last night...
Nice pic for a tattoo eh?


I am poisoned.....

OMG!!!!

I am totally so deeply poisoned. And I know it will be deadly (to my wallet at least).

It was a blast and it was worth the money spent.

He belted out all my favourite songs. And the duet with JJ (That's what friends are for)...it was so heartwarming. And highlight for me is the part he played the violin and the drum. It was fantastic....He can play so many musical instruments. Really talented lad.

Yes, you guessed it.....none other than Lee Hom.

It was a superb performance.

I never am so crazy about him but now I am basically drooling. And I have been watching YouTube on his MV all week long.

I am so happy now.Still feel the adrenalin rush....Pictures coming soon(thanks to Poh Wai for taking so many nice pictures).

All the world's a stage....

Yes....and all the people are the actors and actresses. I hate those who lied. I hate those who are so fake.

*Give me the strength*

Damn...mail server hang so unable to do any work and what's worse is, have tonnes of work to do....*cry*cry*

Hmmm....many things on my mind lately. But when I am in front of the monitor now, cannot seem to put my thoughts into words.

Lately, my dad's health is not too good. Age catching up. He doesn't talk as much as last time and his hearing is not that good anymore. I remembered when I was young, dad used to give me piggy-back rides. My dad is quite thin and I was quite a chubby kid....so it must have been tough on him. I remembered dad used to bring me to fun fairs. And amusement parks. My dad is someone very loyal to one thing. And he is the MOST consistent person I have ever known. He goes to sleep at 9pm, wakes up at 5 am EVERY morning, takes a walk and then eats breakfast (white bread with jam) for as long as I can remember.

I am scared actually. I think I have taken my parents for granted. And I feel I do not know how to love them anymore. All along, I thought I am a good daughter but now I realised that I have not done anything much for them. And I am very disheartened. My dad used to always praise me in front of others but I have disappointed him and my mum. And the fact that I will lose them one day is haunting me now.

I might not know how to pray correctly but I pray to God to give me the strength to be a good daughter that both my parents put hope on.

Petronas ad this year

A colleague forwarded this Petronas ad for this CNY. It's meaningful but not as touching as some of the previous years advertisements. And I personally the song very very much....

Happy Chinese New Year !!!!

Hmmm....how should I start this entry?

What about asking everyone the meaning of CNY?

Do you still feel the spirit of CNY when you were a child?

Honestly, I have never liked CNY. One simple reason, I do not fit in among my relatives.
Ever since I can remember, the first day of CNY will be spent at my aunt's house the whole day where everyone will gather. It is boring. Every year will be the same. Same questions by distant relatives, same topics of this and this. Well, I guess it's more to a tradition for us.

What I like about CNY is the preparation, the time spent with my family during shopping and cleaning the house, and the reunion dinner. It's nothing grand, just a simple dinner where mum will make the best vege and chicken. CNY will not be CNY without my mum's prawn and fish cracker and famous acar....:)

So wish all a Happy Happy Chinese New Year....Oink oink.....

Black Pepper Corn Chicken - Where is the corn?

Time : 1150am
Venue : D'Arif Restaurant in Streetmall

Had lunch with Mai the other day. We were happily eating away our lunch although the food were not nice at all....Then, was rushing to pay the bill as my 1 hour lunch break is almost up when we realised something missing....She ordered Black Pepper Corn Chicken....But.....
where is the corn? Somehow, I found it funny as we did not realise it while we were eating.....Sigh, but not enough time to complain....So, maybe the corn is inside the gravy....Hahahah.

BTW, food there is not nice. Not sure about other dishes but please do not try their special D'Arif Breaded Chicken Chop.....

Movies

I am such a movie-freak these days. Especially for romantic movies. Just made me cried.
Movies I've watched recently:

Death Note 2- The Last Name

Attempts to watch the first one was never successful because both versions I have, the subtitles are in Mandarin and French. But I really like the second one. The story is very interesting and like Chai Yee, I like the way they twist the story. Character I like most? Ryuzaki or L....So full of characteristic and style. I like....

Rating: 4 out of 5

The Holiday
A heart- warming story of two women, one in UK, another in The States, attempting to run away from the bad relationships that just ended. They found themselves an oppurtunity when they agreed on a house exchange programme. What captures me most is the character of Iris....:P
Anyway, the story could have focused more on Iris-Miles than Amanda-Graham.
Jack Black rocks and Jude Law is still hot....:)

Rating: 4 out of 5

Happy Valentine's Day .....

Sometimes I wonder, what is the meaning of Valentine's day nowadays. Does anyone know the story behind this day? Is it about over-rated celebration with someone you love? Is it about an expensive candle-light dinner at a fancy restaurant or the cut-throat bouquet of flowers or gifts?

Anyhow also, wishing everyone a very Happy Valentine! Muaakkkkssss.....

Movies

Eight Below
Tagline: The Most Amazing Story Of Survival, Friendship, And Adventure Ever Told.
Really amazing story about the survival of a group of sled dogs left behind by the explorers because of an unexpected Antartic storm. This movie shows the loyalty and friendship between man and man's best friend. It's a must watch for animal lovers.
Rating: 4 out of 5

Happy Birthday
Story of a love not meant to be. Well, actually it could have been a very happy relationship but because of the lack of confidence and trust, it turn out not so good and in the end, it's all too late. Sad sad story and it made me cry so many times. Rene Liu looks a tad too old for the role she is playing....
Rating: 4 out of 5

Wedding Date
Tagline: Love doesn't come cheap.
About an escort hired by a girl to pose as her boyfriend at her sister's wedding. He's everything a girl wants. As expected, everyone likes him and he fell for the girl and they live happily ever after. Dermot Mulroney is so perfect in this movie....Every girl's dream man....
Rating: 3 out of 5

Blood Diamond
Tagline: It Will Cost You Everything
Make sure the diamond you have now are conflict-free. This movie shows us how greed destroy humanity. Gruelsome truth that we never know till we watch it. Leonardo is a smuggler and brilliantly brings out the role he plays. Watch it if you have the heart for the truth.
Rating: 5 out of 5

The Last Kiss
Tagline: We all make choices. What's yours?
We all will face mid life crisis, won't we? Story about infidelity, loyalty, trust and responsibility. We never know what we really miss and love till we have lost it. There will be temptations all around us, and it takes self control and will to resist.

Take That is back




Liked them very much last time...And they are back. Without Robbie though. Described as "the most successful British band since The Beatles in the UK, beloved of young and old alike", their new single, Patience is a nice song.

Food reviewsss

It's time for some food reviews again....So here it goes...


1) Crystal Jade La Mian and Xiao Long Bao

Originated from Hong Kong, I first tasted it in Singapore. There is only one branch here in KL situated in Lot 10. Must try is their La Mian and Xiao Long Bao....Very nice....I personally like their dry La Mian compared to the soup. Their Fried Pork Ribs is not bad also but quite expensive for just a few pieces.The soup La Mian is quite a big portion, so share it..And Crystal Jade is nicer than Dragon I in 1U....A lot nicer...

2) U-Village in Sungai Wang...

Ermmm....same concept as Kim Gary or Wong Kok...So it's a wiser choice to choose the latter.Poor poor service which makes me feel like slapping the waiters/ waitresses.

3) Zang Toi's choc banana cake

Temptation is hard to resist....Melting warm choc toppled with vanilla ice cream....One word says it all..satisfying....

4) Zuup soup bar in 1U

Food is nicely decorated, and it taste good also....Their dinner set is worth a try but I got to know that their Mushroom Cappucino is marvelous.Will definitely try it next time.

5) Manhattan Fish Market

Well, no need introduction to this place...Like their buttered rice a lot and their platter sets.

6) Roti kosong/ roti sardin/ roti tisu

Head to Maideen's in Taman Connaught. It serves one of the best rotis I've tasted. Their drinks are nice too....

Tiring.....

So tiredddd......Wondering if age is really catching up but I guess it's just the busy weekend that make sme so tired now...:)
Well, started off on Friday night with a movie- Night at the Musuem ....it's definitely a must watch for some entertaining and funny scenes....I like Octavius and Jedediah the most....Falling in love wth Owen Wilson all over again....
Then, it was an early Saturday morning with badminton, breakfast, shopping, and ended with a BBQ blast...
Today is just as hectic, gym, movie and late lunch and dinner....Now....i am listening to Victor Wong's album in a state of half consciousness...
Thanks all for making my weekend a fulfilling one...

Watched quite a lot of movies lately....
Guess Who - Ashton Kuscher can be so funny sometimes...
Elizabethtown - This movie makes me cry...touches my heart...Orlando Bloom and Kirsten Dunst have nothing much to offer here, but the plot of the movie is nice. Makes me realize a lot of things...
Step up - watch it if you like films like Dirty dancing.....the last dance scene is nice but still nothing compares to Patrick Swayze in Dirty Dancing....
Haunted Apartments - ermmm...nothing much to talk about.....ordinary horror flick, with predictable strotyline
The Return - flashbacks....too many of them...makes the movie....boring.............but Sarah Michelle Gellar is hot.
Night at the Museum - fun all the way "dumd, dumb...give me gum gum"
The Guardian - nice movie....used to like Kevin Costner and still find him quite attractive but he's old...just like Harrison Ford....

Time to sleep. Keep tuning in for reviews on FOOD....

I have a new addiction......


Justin Lo......Listening to all his songs over and over.....

And anyone want to go to Lee Hom's concert in March?

Ending of 2006

Happy New Year.....It's 2007...

New year, new hopes and dreams, new resolutions and new targets to achieve....I have all my resolutions set up and I am confident to achieve them (maybe not all) but at least half of them by end of the year....

Well....the past few days had been fun, fun and fun....I had a walk in Starhill for Christmas, had a wonderful Japanese buffet and had a wonderful time....

Then, it's off to Langkawi and Penang for a great holiday. It was indeed fun. Started our journey about 3 am on 27th and reached back KL on 31st evening....Among the most memorable events:-

Mangrove tour where we are able to see beautiful eagles feeding, bats, enjoyed the wind and fantastic view of the mangrove in Langkawi.... And not forgetting my first time touching a stingray and horseshoe crab....

Tour around Four Seasons Hotel....damn beautiful.....and I checked the price and the cheapest will be RM1k plus per night.....Will you pay that price for luxury? Hmmmmm......

Underwater world- lots and lots of fish and cute cute penguines

Waterfall- though a small one but nonetheless, the water is so cooling....

We are unlucky as the cable car was closed because of windy condition up at the mountain...so we did a bit of detour and played with rabbits...lots of them....It was a wonderful experience...

And not forgetting the liquor and chocs we bought....

Then, we travelled to Penang....for another round of camping....It was great...We trekked at about 7pm and imagine the experience...trekking the jungle in the dark....And someone actually said he saw something.....Creepyyyy....

Sleeping in the tent, and watching stars at night.....by the sea with the sound of the waves....wonderful. And it's not complete without a morning walk to the small jetty and along the beach to the rocks....Took a lot of pictures....Oh ya and not forgetting someone asking for tissue paper at 3am to do "big business"...Gosh....

And we actually de-tour into Parkroyal in Penang because someone needs to do some "big business"...Heheheh.....another beautiful hotel.

Had lots of nice food in Penang- char kuey teow, asam laksa, o-chien (many times), char kuey kak, lobak, rojak, mee special, mee jawa, prawn mee, chendol, ice kacang....amazing right? Don't be surprised....we can really eat......kekekeke

Thanks to all for making this a wonderful trip....So, where is our next destination?
