Feeling a little bit of grooviness? =_=”

Aha! Off-day from work on Thursday(23rd of August)…so must enjoy kau-kau…seriously,when I started working,I really-really fully appreciate my days off from work(cuz working by doing the same repetitive routine…at the same place for quite long hours…surely bored till death =_=” )


When I woke up…I looked outside my window and saw dark cloudy skies…dunno why everytime I’ve got plans to go out,surely the weather is never on my side,I better go to some plantation or paddy field to bring the rain along next time =_=” Was contemplating whether wanna bring an umbrella along cuz I am taking the public bus…but after a shower,the sun came out along with its rays of light…Ok-lah settle,no need to bring an umbrella =P As I was walking halfway towards the waiting point for the RapidKL public bus…it started drizzling…and it got heavier while I waited for the bus,covering myself with my windbreaker(which I bring along most of the time since me and the rain are “good friends” =_=” )…Grrr…kena con by the sun…can actually wait at the usual bus stop,but there were a few number of occasions I missed the bus cuz the driver claimed that he/she couldn’t see me wor…quite true since got trees blocking the bus stop and some more the drivers speed kau-kau =_=” %#%@%$#%# Already know got bus stop there but then dun slow down and speed kau-kau instead,what-lah >=(

After waiting for about maybe 5 or 10 minutes…the bus came…I entered the bus,paid for the ticket and took a seat…a few metres driven and the inevitable happened…

THE DARN BUS BROKE DOWN!!! #$!#!#%$!@!^% Wah…very “suey” leh…maybe I should take down the bus number and buy 4D,see whether can turn my luck around or not =_=”

But not that “suey” ler…when I was waiting in the broke down bus,I got a phone call from my dad(he was at home) asking me where am I,since he knew that I was taking the public bus out…waiting for bus + raining = not a good situation…got a lift since he is going out as well(where I waited under a shade of trees and took the picture of the public bus)…at least the bus didn’t choose to break down at some teruk geographical position…like in the middle of the highway!!! What a way to start the day,eh? =_=”

Firstly,had lunch with Wei Sun at Ming Tien(Taman Megah) and one of the stalls caught my attention…thus,I ordered this peculiar meal...

Baso Sapi Asli,Beefball Soup Noodles…my socks and shoes were soaked…I think if I squeeze out all the rainwater,can manage to fill up an empty bowl until it’s full like the soup of the noodles dish =_=”

The Indonesian Cuisine stall which I ordered from…

To any Indonesian friends/readers out there…what’s with Baso Sapi Asli? Izzit some famous brand name? Name of the dish? What izzit?!! =_=”

Manage to restock some anime from her,since she had been downloading em’ while she was studying in UK…hehe =P

And also got this lovely keychain souvenier from Holland during her trip in Europe…shiok-nya to travel…although my footwear were soaking wet,I couldn’t possibly wear it…besides,the Holland clogs doesn’t come in a pair =_=” Thanks very-very much =P


Time to leave…bid her farewell…and off I went to Kelana Jaya LRT Station to wait for another RapidKL public bus to 1 Utama…but the Ikano Power Centre free bus shuttle service came first(was 3pm then…still raining…well more like drizzling)…without hesitating much,I just decided to take the bus and then walk to 1 Utama(to me it’s a walkable distance ler),rather than waste more time waiting for the RapidKL public bus…which I am not even sure whether I missed it or not…wasted money on the bus fare only,cheh!

Having dinner here with a few “long time no see” secondary school friends…

Jom ber-groovy kat Sushi Groove…it had been quite some time since I had Japanese food and also the “must try-try” side of me invoked me as well =_=”

In order to eat groovily…there’s a suggestion piece of information provided…

Now you know how to eat at Sushi Groove whenever you decided to dine there =P

Ordered a main meal before trying out the sushi(s)…

Tempura Udon…RM14.90 =_=” So expensive and the portion is so-so-so small!!!

Following the suggestion…this sushi has the Groovy icon…meaning that it’s their signature/popular/recommended dish

Dynamite Roll…salmon wrapped rice balls baked with special Dynamite sauce(dun ask me about the sauce,clueless…)…RM9.90…by the first look,my mind thought of Malacca Chicken Rice Balls…lols…Strangely enough,it does taste a bit like it…the rice that is =P Tasted weird but edible,according to the majority of us…

Another sushi…called I Love Unagi…

Wahrao…this is good stuff…definitely LOVE UNAGI after eating it =D Albeit its a tad expensive,RM16.90…worth it compared to the previous sushi we ate

A bit skeptical about the last part of their grooviness of Sushi Groove…

Even their refillable green tea is RM2.90!!! Can buy at least 6 “Siuet-Char”(Iced Chinese Tea) at coffee shops leh…the next time I come here,I’ll just order sushi only…


After dinner,next on the agenda…watching Ratatouille at GSC!!!

Yet,another great achievement from Pixar…

Somehow…I always enjoy watching animated movies by Pixar…it has that “feel good” feeling,dunno how to describe it…lols =P Even the animated food look yummy…if only the movie was in 3-D,no? =_=” Good movie to watch…so what are you waiting for? Faster go watch it!!! You’ll feel satisfied…with the phrase within the movie,“Anyone Can Cook”,making you dash to the nearest hypermarket to get ingredients for your cookout =)

A random group picture at a random place by a random passerby…after watching the movie…

From Left to Right: ME,Li Jian,Pui Fun,Li Yann,Sue Wen and Yi Ching…only posted up this group picture cuz most of em’ were not “sporting” or camera shy in Sushi Groove…lols =P Dun shy-shy,ok? Haha…

Ironically the next thing me and Li Jian did was…we went to Williams and ordered…

RATATOUILLE(rat.a.too.ee)…tambah with Ravioli…shiok-ness!!! Pure vegetarian meal of goodness…Williams style ler,not the authentic Ratatouille recipe…still delicious nonetheless(click here for the original Ratatouille,sourced from Wikipedia)…Don’t be surprised if there’s a Roti Ratatouille at your nearest Mamak joint,hehe…


Eh? Managed to update an event within a few days instead of the usual “one week later” update…for this time only ler cuz I quite bersemangat a bit,hehe…wah,but the next day back to work…felt a bit sad and depressing,lols…which shows that I haven’t berseronok for quite some time already…hehe =P A few more days to go until the 31st of August,MERDEKA DAY and also the last day of part-time work…nyek-nyek-nyekssss…looking forward to payday as well,hehe…

My hobby is reading?!! =_=”

Whenever someone asks you…or when you are filling up an application form…a simple yet bold question,which goes…“What is your hobby?”…is brought up and wanting to be a “sophisticated” sort of person,you answered/wrote down…Reading

Now that brings up another question…usually when one says or mentions reading…the other party would be quite amazed and may straightaway have an impression that he/she is some sort of “smart” or intellectual person…a bookworm…a keen interest for the literal arts…etc…

That is…until they knew what the other person actually reads about…hehe…so here’s some of my current “reading contents” =_=”


My (almost) Complete Collection of True Singapore Ghost Stories…

I started reading this series when I was in upper primary school…and there were a few times I couldn’t go to sleep(imagination is a dangerous thing for a young kid…creepy-looking eyes of the book covers in the dark doesn’t help much either,lols) The volumes which I don’t have were borrowed and Edmund Loh indirectly made me searched for the latest volume(Book No.16) while I was browsing through his blog,lols…I wonder who else reads this book? Dun pray-pray…Singapore got lotsa ghost leh…afraid to visit there =_=” Fact or fiction,you decide yourselves…but a word of advice,don’t mess around with the supernaturals…

Aha!!! The newspaper!!!

Last time I usually read/browse through all the newspapers that my dad or mum buys…but now lazy already leh,so The Star is my current choice…And I don’t think I had ever bought any newspaper to read…the most is just grab free newspapers like The Sun and Malaysian Today when studying at UNiM in Semenyih…apart from reading lecture materials =_=” Now I am working part-time,I sometimes bring along outdated newspapers to read(no time to read mar…go back home after work,either online or terus tidur =P )

Manager: Eh…today’s papers arrr?
Me: Apparently no…it’s yesterdays…
Manager: Aiyah…expired already wan…
Me: =_=”

No matter how old I am…yes…I am still reading comic books(and playing video games…and watching cartoons as well,lols)

This is the only comic book that I am buying nowadays…yes…it’s Shin Chan!!! Damn farnee wei…but I guess the cartoonist is running out of ideas already cuz not as funny as before…lols =P I can only read the Malay edition,which is slower to be published cuz dunno how to read the Chinese edition lah =_=”

Not forgetting…blog-reading!!! Haha =D

Hmmm…this blog looks very familiar wei~ =_=”


Wah-Lau-Eh…all this “reading” is making me hungry leh…time to get a snack

After watching The Simpsons Movie…I don’t think Homer Simpson had eaten any doughnuts in the movie…so I would like to “help” him a bit ler =P

Big Apple Donuts&Coffee…at The Curve

I read about this place before in the newspaper(Aha! Witness the benefits of reading!!! Lols) and also Milky~Pearly made me wanna try this place,which is after I had visited her blog…click here for the post

Too many choices of doughnuts for my limited budget to purchase…“Paiseh” to take so many pictures of the doughnuts…Even more “Paiseh” to take pictures of the doughnuts without buying any at all =P

The design of the box looked simple yet nice…

Got colorful rounded “bulat-bulat”s which looked like errr…doughuts? =P

Which also looked quite similar to…

…one of the default layout in Blogspot =_=”

As much as I wanted to claim all the doughnuts for myself…I shall not be greedy and bought back half a dozen only,share-share with family also leh =P

These are the 6 “chosen one” doughnuts from Big Apple…will try the other ones some other time

It is also advisable not to consume too many doughnuts…or else

This would happen to your eyes…or maybe it’s a good thing…can become the next superhero…Doughnut Man?!! O_O


Dunkin Donuts,makan before…Big Apple,also makan before…there’s only 1 Doughnut outlet left(so far lah) to try…KRISPY KREME!!! Faster open an outlet in Malaysia!!! Lols…

Time to end this post…by uploading a random picture!!!

A healthier alternative for Hansel&Gretel…a house made from fruits!!!
(A food festival themed…Tutti Fruity…in 1 Utama)

The 3 M's…Movie…Mamak…and…Money?!! =_="

The previous week,on Tuesday(7th August 2007)…went to watch The Simpsons Movie!!! Hmmm…events seem to be blogged about roughly a week later nowadays…lagging =_=” Had been quite some time since I went to the movies…normally I prefer to be accompanied(minimum 1 person will do ler,hehe)…go alone watch like very sad case liao,haha…Li Jian and Yi Ching came/were dragged along


The yellow occupants of Springfield…created by Matt Groening

The Simpsons…Movie!!! I remembered watching the series long-long-long time ago…on Metrovision(when it still existed)…now,only those with ASTRO are able to watch it…or else…download lah =P Funny movie indeed,which kept “The Simpsons” feel/humour in it…except that it’s like almost 3 episodes bundled together for a movie-length film

Stumbled upon this website on Yi Ching’s blog,http://www.simpsonsmovie.com/

Lotsa The Simpsons goodies to keep you interested(that is until you are bored)…like flash games,trailers,screenshots,wallpaper…oh,you could even create your own avatar as well…a Simpson-ised version of me as shown above =_=” Yes…I do have a pair of red shoes

But not like this…

=_=”

At least got a bit style ler…lols

Like this…hehe =P

After watching the movie…dropped by to one of my favourite ever Mamak stall…

Do you know the place? Hehe…fellow regular patrons will know this place very well

Why it’s none other than…Williams of course!!! Was introduced to this place by Li Jian(loyal customer liao…hehe) and ever since the first dining experience,it kept me coming back for more =D What makes this place so special? Well…

It’s the fusion or combination of Western/Italian with Mamak food…something that will trigger my “must try” way of thinking…lols

This is Li Jian’s Naan dish…

Close-up shot and…inside…

Cheese,turkey ham,topped with tomato puree…

My stuffed Roti Canai…

Coleslaw,BBQ Tandoori chicken…actually,tasted kinda like kebab =P

The pictures taken with my cameraphone doesn’t do any justice to how tasty the food were…well,at least to me ler…so I would strongly recommend to come here and try the food…new creations are introduced whenever I dine here…too many zany choices and I would require my “Williams food connoisseur”,Li Jian to recommend or introduce a few goodies to fill my stomach…hehe…

Aha…the person on the left is the friendly proud owner himself…which the Mamak stall is named after him…Williams…lols


Speaking of shoes…

The current condition of my working shoes…too hardworking already leh,lols =_=”

Temporary replacement…

Haha =P

Oh…and remember the lucky draw thingy by the RapidKL bus service?(which I am using nowadays for work…click here)…results for the draw is out(month of July)

For the convenience of those who are using the bus service and still keeping their tickets…I’ve posted up the results(for those who rather visit my blog than the RapidKL website or check the newspaper…cheh-wah >=P ) Just in case…here’s the website,http://www.rapidkl.com.my/

In the end…

Not even one “kena” any at all…lols…the most is like the first 2 combination of digits or alphabets…then no point looking at the remaining digits/alphabets anymore =_=”


Never mind…still got another draw for the month of August…hahaha =P Ok…need to sleep now,another working day awaits…%$@#$^$%$% RapidKL bus for making me spend almost RM 9(happened a few times before) in order for me to go to work via taxi…as a last resort…better make sure I get money prize as compensation!!! >=P

Two Birthdays in a Day…

The previous Sunday(29th July 2007)…I took a day off from work in order to have a sort of get-together with my friends(which I had committed a sin by lying that I had other matters to attend to…tsk…tsk…tsk…)…cuz working like a robot everyday,doing the same monotonous routine day after day will surely make me go crazy and might end up in Tanjung Rambutan one fine day =_=” But of course,I don’t do this “sin” so frequently ler…so far this is only once,lols =P


Anyways…we met up at The Curve and walked around,in search for a place to have lunch…

Ended up makan-ing sandwiches at O’Briens…this is my Crambo Club Sandwich…can’t remember what it’s consisted of(I can only remember bacon though…which in turn reminds me of Carl’s Jr. =_=” please refer to the previous post)…It was recommended by the staff cuz I dunno what to eat from the names of their menu,written on chalkboards without pictures…also the first time dining there(if one does not know what to recommend…just tell the most expensive stuff or just simply “tembak” and hopefully he/she gets away with it…lols =_=” please do not follow this “suggestion”),the sandwich was quite nice and filling too…

After the sandwich eating session…it’s time to move on to the next agenda…

Cake eating session!!! =_=” Yup…the other purpose of this get-together gathering is also to celebrate Craig’s birthday(though it’s belated…sorry,hehe =P need to find a time/day where everybody is free)…in conjunction with meeting up with familiar faces once again…killing 2 birds with 1 stone,eh? Hehe…

When there is a birthday cake…

…it is bound to be accompanied by a birthday boy(or girl…depending)
Craig and his chocolate-squared cake…

And as usual…the “compulsory” group picture…

From Left to Right:
Jessica,Camellia,Jien Eu,Michelle,Craig,Pui Yen and ME…
Hopefully that day puts a smile on your face…like this =D


And that wraps up for Birthday No.1 for the day…next stop…Midvalley


On a side note…noticed that I have a bad(or perhaps good…in a way ler) habit of taking pictures of food before I consume em’(recently…when I started blogging,also influenced by viewing pictures of food on other people’s blogs…lols =P)…note that I don’t take every single thing that I eat or drink…that would’ve been too drastic already…that is unless I wanted to point something out…read on dear readers…

Time for dinner…met up with my University mates and we ended up in…

All Stars Sports Cafe…another “first time dining there” experience…this is my sad-case Chicken Rice(can’t remember the fancy-fancy name the restaurant calls it) cuz I didn’t wanna eat the western food(budget-wise and also not much choices too)…must eat rice(since lunch ate sandwiches only)…some more it’s RM20 something for this meal >_<

Here’s more of my “bad/good habits”…

Pizza and pasta…where the pasta is placed in a very-very huge looking plate(which occupied almost half the square-shaped table)…optical illusion @_@

Following their previous “trademark”…

Now it is Soup Noodles in a very-very huge looking bowl…the common trend for this restaurant…is to use huge “dining accessories”…must’ve been second-hand goods from giants =_=”

In my opinion…this is probably the most worthwhile dish on the table…

Cantonese Style Kueh Teow…lols…but for the price a person has to pay to eat this there,its a whole different story altogether ler…hehe…

Here’s our “yau-yeng” birthday boy…

Zi Hao and his 3 slices of cake(different cake with varying heights =P ) from Secret Recipe…

A “partial picture” of those who were there…thanks for this picture,Zi Hao

From Left to Right: Douglas,Li-Ann and ME(M.I.A from the picture are Wilson and Handoyo)
Hmmm…I noticed that the 3 of us are “positioned” like the 3 slices of Secret Recipe cakes…lols


Birthday No.2…done…wahahahahaha >=P


Although both birthdays were kinda small-scaled…I sincerely hope both of em’ know…it’s the thought that counts,hehe =P Made myself to attend Zi Hao’s pre-Birthday(it was one day before his actual birthday…well,at the time of this post…now it’s termed as belated already =_=” ) this year as I was unable to attend the previous year, that is before he left to UK…due to work-work-work for me…this time,since Li-Ann planned it on the same day I was off from work…I killed 2 birds with 1 stone…again…lols

Last few words before the next uncertain update(wah…every update is like “gold” only =P )…errr…we must enjoy our meals…never waste nor rush…for instance,the humble Roti Canai/Roti Kosong...every bite must be savoured…for you wouldn’t know that one day in the future…your regular 80 sen(average price) Roti Canai/Roti Kosong would be…*dramatic+suspense music*…RM 2.00!!!(Or perhaps even more!!!)

=_=”

Lame-lame-lame…but hey,the future is uncertain for now…so my advice is to…errr…eat all the Roti Canai(s)/Roti Kosong(s) you ever want!!! Why not try to set a world record for it as well?(Like the most number eaten in a certain limited amount of time)…Kids,please don’t try this at home…unless you are a trained professional…lols

Ending post with random pictures…

Hey…I didn’t know that there is a Coffee Bean laptop bag for sale(only available in Coffee Bean of course,you can try Petaling Street though…or any Pasar Malam will do)

Yes-yes…jakun me =_=”

There is some sort of showroom for furniture/home decorations stuff/electrical appliances/etc…in 1 Utama

This shot was taken with my cameraphone from a higher ground…which kinda reminded me of the popular game…The Sims =P
