It's too early!

I managed to wake up at 6:45am right when my alarm went off.

Not bad. :D

Fussed with the usual "do i look ok?" with my sis and we got to uni on time. If this good start to the day is any indication for how the rest of the semester will be like, i think i like it. Very much. :)

I have a strange feeling that blogging so early in the morning...(it's 8:16am) can't be all that healthy for anyone. It's quite unlikely that anyone has ANYthing to blog about so darn early in the morning except to report about being a possible witness at a car crash they saw at the highway. Choi!

For me, all is smooth sailing and as i have already mentioned, i like it. :)

Although...i think i am having weird visions...i thought i just saw Choo Teck Kwang!! LOL!!

Anyway, have a wonderful start to the new semester everyone!! :) *hugs*

Pig out!

My sis (no..i am not using her as an excuse) was craving for pizza the other day and since we were too lazy to cook anything for lunch, we decided to order just that! :D 

 

New York Crust with pepperoni toppings! Everyone's FAVVV!!! :D Particularly mine!! xDDDD 

 We ordered the set :D YUMMM!!

 I have yet to actually eat it...we were too full by then..LOL!

Of all different pizza outlets, i really love LOVE Dominos! :D :D Only because they have the new york crust though. HEHEHE! And the fact that they are quite generous with the pepperoni toppings too! xDDD ME LOOOVE!! :P 

Anyone who knows me and eats pizza with me will know that i love pepperoni. XD It is the only pizza topping i will ever have! Hehehe!! :D :D :D *hops about in glee*

*****************************

On a separate day, to be specific on the 11th of February, i went out with Chu Ian for lunch and to catch a movie afterwards. :) 

We went around to Aman Suria to try some char siew rice shop that he told me was pretty good. The only catch was...

He can't remember the name of the shop.

LOL!!! In the end, we ended up at a new shop around the corner that had no restaurant name that we could see. After a long while did i realise that this shop was Murni!! YUP! The very Murni where you order funky food and have the classic Ribena Longan! :D :D :D 

I didn't order that lar...instead, i had some Chunky Ice Blended Soursop while Chu Ian had some drink concoction called "I Love You". :) Pretty funny when he actually ordered the drink to the waiter. LOL! Here are the pics :) :

 

"I Love You"

I Love Longan! :D :D 

My soursop drink with tasteless watermelon, natadecoco and longan...LOL! 

LOL!

 

  

  

  

His pattaya fried rice!! :D

My monstrous dish: Fried Rice with Chicken Ala Kiev

I really hope i improve in my camera skills soon! xD

The chicken ala kiev is seriously uber oily lar. Duh. Since it is fried. And the portion at Murni fits huge giants only! REALLY! Or you have to be soooo starved like you haven't been eating for 10 days and feast on the food there. xDDD

I had to ta pau mine. LOL!

After lunch, Chu Ian reminded me of the show that i wanted to watch so badly:

Valentine's Day!

The movie is SOOOOOOOOOO SWEEEETTT and FARNIE!! I couldn't help but laugh out loud at quite a number of scenes! hahaha! It's worth the watch! Really!! :D I'm so glad we managed to catch the movie on that day! xD

We went home, checked online for the timing and found out that only 1U had the most suitable time. We nearly rushed to the cinema and later found out that it was almost fully booked! Thank goodness, the guy was kind enough to let us stand there until those seats that were reserved were opened. :D :D :D

AND WE GOT GOOOOOOOOOOOOD SEATS! WOOHOO!

Since we had about 1/2 hr to spare before the movie, Chu Ian decided to purchase his new camera and by the time we bought it and nearly ran to the cinema, we were already 5-10 minutes behind time!!!

Luckily they started late and i didn't miss all the movie previews! Hehe! I wanna watch Prince of Persia next!! xDDD

Oh! I finally watched Jennifer's Body! 

SCARY LAR! I generally hate watching horror films so i get scared pretty easily. LOL! It's quite gory too...if you are the kind that can't take any of those then don't bother watching. LOL! But if you want to catch Megan Fox doing a girl-on-girl scene with Amanda Seyfried then, this is show to watch. xD

K lar...enough for now..till the next! :)

Changes

"The only thing constant in life is change"

We learnt that way back during MUFY, remember? :)

Nothing can really prepare you for the changes that you will face. It is just that we eventually, and very naturally, make use of our survival instincts and adjust ourselves to our new surroundings, circumstances and environment.

Even though i had known about Chu Ian's plan to leave for Australia since a long time ago, i could not fully prepare myself for the day that he left. I must say though, the scenario of him at the airport and of me waving goodbye had been on the play button for a gazillion times in my mind.

I figured that i was ready. Ready for the day to wave him off to Australia and embrace the idea that there will no longer be that convenience of picking up the phone to send a quick message to say "i miss you" or "i had a bad day...can i call you?" or just merely picking up the phone and click on speed dial to his number.

Now i have to think twice before sending a message because of the cost that is involved; so what more to call? 

Of course, there is Skype now. But i am new to this whole new arrangement of communicating just through Skype and not having him physically with me. How on earth do people do it? 

It sounds so simple to just say that communicating through Skype is good enough; imagine those days when all they had was just pictures and snail mail!! But really, how do people go through with the relationship without physical touch, a hug or a kiss?

Like i said before, it was so easy to just tell myself that i am prepared to do all that and that i am ready. But sometimes, you can not always have what you want. In the end, the scenario in my mind didn't work out...i was about over 200km far away from him on that significant day.

Even after 2 years of knowing that he was leaving was not enough to prepare me when i found out that he was leaving on the 2nd day of Chinese New Year. I knew i could not go. It took me awhile to be accustomed to the idea that we could still say our goodbyes through the phone.

But even then, that was not meant to be.

My entire family (includes relatives) had a family reunion dinner at a restaurant. What i had not counted on was the fact that halfway through dinner when i realised that Chu Ian was taking a long time to call me back, that there was no freaking line at that restaurant!!!! OF ALL THE TIMES AND DAYS! It HAD to be WHEN CHU IAN IS ABOUT TO BOARD THE PLANE! *kicks table*

I frantically tried to call and search for a line. But to no avail. When i went back to my table, my mom came to me and told me that Chu Ian had missed call her. With shaky hands i quickly took the phone to call him back. Again. And again. And again. And again.

It took me nearly 8 or more failed attempts before my mom calmly told me that Chu Ian had probably switched off his phone and is on board the plane by now.

I felt my heart sink down my stomach.

I know he told me not to be silly or sdg to cry. But i couldn't stop the tears. I couldn't stop the disappointment. I couldn't stop and turn back time to when i still had line, to call him back.

I had to excuse myself and locked myself in the toilet for several minutes to just cry my disappointment for not being able to just have that one last time of joy of calling him and hearing his voice. To just tell him to have a safe flight. And so much more.

I know i seem to be a little overreacting to some and to others, a tad too emotional. But i hate goodbyes. As much as i have learnt from Management units of ways to go about changes, i realise that i am probably one of those people who hate changes. I am one of those people that might resist change. I am even prolly one of those that would be sent off to a course to deal with changes. Heck, i don't know!

It could be just a phase. Or maybe my menstrual cycle is on its way and it's affecting the hormonal changes in my body. Or maybe, i am just plain disappointed. Regardless, i cried.

For a couple of minutes i just crouched and cried. At the toilet, no less. But after that, i quickly recovered and calmed myself down well enough to return to the table with no signs of having been crying and actually have dessert and later laugh when they celebrated my grandmother's birthday, my cousin's and lo and behold, MINE again!! LOL! :D

So really, now that it has been about 2 days, i am slowly adjusting myself to this new situation. Yesterday, i managed to catch him online!! :D But we only typed through Skype because he was really Skyping with his parents. xD And later, he got disconnected halfway through and i didn't get the chance to continue our convo.

It's difficult when you always rush online to check if he is there, and you get your hopes high, but realise that he is not. But it's part of the change that i will have to accept and get used to.

Nowadays, i just busy myself with cleaning up my room and surrounding myself with people so that i don't keep thinking too much. Since Uni is starting soon, assignments will keep me busy too. :)


Funny how that once when i was single, all these was never an issue for me. I could get by the days alone just fine. Yet, when my life had someone special, everything just naturally fell into a different routine and i was comfortable with the new routine. Now that i am back to square one, i find myself slightly off balance. Life is funny like that. xP

So Dear ar..i'm well here too. :) I am much stronger than i remembered. More independent than i let myself believe. Changes are inevitable but i am learning to adjust myself, camouflage myself and be more flexible when the situation arises for me to do so. :)

I'm still waiting for you to show me your little room though! :D Get your butt online soon k??? :)

Officially an adult

I am not sure about you, but i used to have the dream of wanting to grow up and often wondered how it felt like to be 21. 

Now that i am at the age that i used to daydream about, i am not so sure i want to grow just yet. xD

Unfortunately, or not, time flies and scientist have yet to come up with the invention of the time turner. So i guess i'll have to just move on and act my age. (HAHA)

After the usual birthday wishes after 12am, i woke up the next day earlier than usual and found a huge paper bag sitting on my table!! Running to find out what it was, i snatched my glasses and peered at the bag cover...

OLYMPUS PEN! *gasp* Could it be??? COULD IT REALLY BE THAT MY DAD WOULD SPLURGE SO MUCH FOR ME?! *scrambles to open the bag that looked like a camera box*

Hahaha!! Nah lar. Even if my dad actually bought me that, i would have asked him to give it back! LOL! He DID however, get me a rather nice good digital camera though! 

I understand that my picture-taking skills needs lots of practice so, bear with me till i master the art of it. :)

Instead of the black that is shown on the box, i have the blue/turquoise version. :) I am in love with the fact that i am finally owning my own camera so i am truly grateful to my daddy for making this wish of mine possible! :D :D Thanks DAD!!! :D

Right after that, i very nearly tore apart the second bag that held the gift from my mom. :D :D

 A bracelet that i have always wanted!!! :D :D :D :D

I honestly just wanted to have a simple bracelet but what i didn't expect was to have a pendant and a necklace too!! 

 

The symbol of freedom :)

A very sweet and loving card from my parents accompanied the gifts. :) 

Mom and dad, thank you ever so much for everything!!! :) I love the both of you soooo much!! :) :)

After getting ready for the morning, Chu Ian came by to wish me and to spend my special day together. :) 

Chu Ian and me after he picked me from my house :)

With the birthday card that Chu Ian made for me!! :D :D 

My gift from Chu IAn!!

 

Oh ya...i had a new haircut. xD

  

  

 We watched FAME!! :D :D NIIIICE! Whilst the movie seemed like a combination of all short stories for each character, so it seemed like it zoomed pass, dancing scenes were goooooooooooood. :D But to be frank, i still prefer Step Up 2! :D :D

  

Showing off! :P

  

 Dressed for dinner at...:

  

 Kura!! :D :D :D

  

My salad that was yumm yumm yummmy!!

  

 It's always Unagi or nothing else! xD

  

 I'm still more of a Salmon person. :D

  

 MY FAVOURITE!!!! :D Soft shell crab temaki!!! :D :D

  

 Chu Ian's winter season dish! (If i hadn't mistaken...xD)

  

 Him taking a long time to decide what to eat..hahaha!

  

It's mandatory to take a couple pic! :D 

  

 His wallet got thinner...xD

  

 xP

He later brought me back home at night and since he had tummy ache for the most part of the day, he told me he needed to use my toilet at home. Upon reaching home, i had this sneaky suspicion that he had something up his sleeve but yet, when i arrived home, it was just my family doing their usual homely stuff. 

Then Chu Ian suddenly came out from the kitchen door and told me that we had ran out of tissue...(HAHAHAHA) So obviously i go get lar right?  And maybe it is just after years of watching CSI and reading crime stories or what lar...but i was very verryyy suspicious. 

Upon opening the door, instead of confronting Chu Ian about what was going on, all i saw was a brightly lit cake and Chu Ian saying a rather loud "Surprise" before out of "nowhere", out came Ivan, Bee Theng, Kit Yee, Ben, Tze Yuen, Heng Luen, Ken, Brian, Shu yi and Daniel, singing Happy Birthday song!!! Hahahhaa!!

What a wonderful surprise!! xDDD I just want to say, Thank you and many times again, thank you for waiting ever so patiently for me and Chu Ian to get back!! Thank yOOUU!!! :) :) 

Here is what my dear kawan, Ben bought for me:

  

 Take 1: Too much flash

  

 Take 2: Too dark! HAHHA!

So cute lar! LOL! It's actually a bag!! I will have to find a way to wear that to uni. xD

And here is a beautiful gift from Bee Theng and Kit Yee:

 

A beautiful elegant necklace!! Very nice!! :D THANK YOU!! :) 

And thank you to the rest for the birthday cake too!!! :) (I didn't take a pic! Sorry!!) 

It was only later that i found out that my family were behind the surprise too! :D Thank you to my wonderful family and a great group of friends. :) I had a meaningful birthday thanks to all of you! :) Of course, thanks dear, for planning everything!!!!!!!! MUAKS!!!!! :D :D :D :D

You probably won't believe me...

BUT I AM BLOGGING FROM CHU IAN'S NEWWWWW LAPTOP! :D

IT'S AWESOMMMEEEEE :D :D :D

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010!!!!

Believe it or not!! ANOTHER NEW YEAR!! :D 

Whew! Time does fly, doesn't it? I can still feel the anticipation as i stepped onto the grounds of university life for my second year and feeling the apprehension of how uni life would be like now that my dearest friends were in Australia.

But it didn't turn out too bad! xD It's true when they say that friends come and go. And i realise that true friends do stay. :) I have learned alot throughout the year 2009 and i am still trying to improve myself and be a better person.

It is easy to say that you want to be a better person but my definition of a better person includes being a lot less judgmental about others, being a lot less skeptical about everything, keeping an open mind to endless possibilities, opening my heart to others and to stay true to myself in order to be able to be true to others. 

We make countless mistakes along the way of our life and from those mistakes, once you are able to identify, rectify and learn from it, it allows you to get a grip of who you are and be the very best of yourself.

In the past year, i may not have been the bestest friend or the wonderful person i know i should have been, so, taking this opportunity, i apologise for the wrongs that i have made and the hurt that i may have caused. I hope that we can all look forward into this new year with an open heart and mind and start afresh! :)

So, here i toast, to a bright cheerful and awesome new year to you, you and YOU!! :)

Caught in the middle of it all...

I hate hate hate being caught in the middle of an ongoing argument or when someone is getting their butts grilled. I somehow imagine myself in the person's shoes and everything in me just shrivel and i long to just dig a hole and bury myself in it.

But anyway, moving on to happier notes, i finally finally went out with my favourite group of girlfriends - Dadah, Yuts and Alena!! :D

I told my dad that i would be out for lunch and would be back for work right after. But what i had not planned on was to get back to work at 7:30pm to a closed dark office!! xD

Whoops! xD

Before you start scolding me, i must say that i had such a wonderful time!! :D I laughed till my sides ached and enjoyed "shopping" (since we didn't buy anything)! I wished we could have hopped on the LRT and zoom our way to KLCC (our favourite hang out area..somehow...LOL!) but work kinda prevented me on that.. :(

And DADAH GOT HER NOSE PIERCED!! oO

Pictures will be loaded up on Facebook soon!! HAHHA! BUT IT LOOKED REALLY GOOD! I kinda wish i got a reason or excuse to pierce mine too. HAhahahaha! But what i can't get my head around on is how people with pierced nose, manage to dig their nose...

*shudder* gross thought. But i will make it a point to ask Dadah after 2 weeks..hehehehe!

Anyway, on a side note, my hands are officially turned to ice. I AM SO COLD! And i think i am on the verge of getting sick...uh oh....

Happy Birthday, Mr Phua Chu Ian!!!!

Note: this is a backdated post which will explain how everything is in past-tense (if my english is grammatically correct). :D

I have wished you a dozen times through the phone (on both call and sms), on the card, in person, through Facebook and now, through my blog. :D So, 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CHU IAN DEAR! :D

Here is my account of how everything went: 
About a few days before his birthday, we were chatting on the phone when he mentioned to me about how no one was doing anything for him for his birthday.

In actual fact, i had a plan formed in my head exactly 3 weeks before his birthday. But due to unforeseen circumstances, it didn't quite work out. So anyway, it's never too late to plan right? xD Right after the phone conversation, i set my mind out to do something special for him. I roped in a couple of good friends to spread the word to the group of people he spends the most time with and managed to get about a comfortable group of friends to celebrate his birthday. :) It was supposed to be a surprise so i made everyone promise not to tell him. Which worked out well. :D

Until i spoilt it myself. HAHHAHAHHAHA! Will elaborate as i go on..xD

I woke up pretty early on that day and went over to his house to pass him the presents and spend the day with him. :)

I went over at about close to 10 in the morning and was expecting him to be awake by then but...NOOOOOOO. The lazy bum birthday boy was still ASLEEP! Hahahahahha! His father told me to wake him up so up i went to give his bum a good birthday morning whack. :D After he got up, i got so excited to see his reaction at the gifts i bought that i made him open up all his presents before he even got a chance to wash up!! Hahahahaha!

And he loves!! *BEAMS* :DD

So, the plan for the day was to bake a cake together then have lunch ("just the two of us") then back again to get ready for dinner with the family. Yes. We baked his birthday cake together. HEHEHEHE!

Sorry lar. I don't really bake! Besides, i wanna see how he does it anyway. :D We took about 2-3 hours doing it? LOL! It was fun though!! I wanted to bake something other than cheese cake since he bakes it for almost everyone's birthday. Haha! But he wanted to have it anyway since he was "lazy" to try something else. tsk tsk.

All the while when we/he was baking, i made the arrangements with Kit Yee and Vannessa to meet at Italliannies at The Curve at around 2:30pm along with the gang of friends. Since it is supposed to be a surprise, i told Chu Ian that we will be having lunch outside and at the same time, go to the IT store to check out the earphones that he had been wanting to get for a long while. But of course, lunch will be the surprise with his friends there waiting for him and earphone shopping was just the excuse. HEHE!

All went well except that the cake (we made two: one for his family and one for mine) took much longer than i hoped it would! And i was so worried that everyone will be waiting for us! Additionally, his mom suddenly mentions to us to eat lunch at home before going out and then asked him: "How come none of ur friends are planning anything for you eh?? Are you going out with your friends or is it just the two of u?" I looked over at Chu Ian and for some reason, he had that smile on his face that seemed to say that he knew something but at that time, i just passed it off as nothing much and quickly answered that it will be just us. xD

After lunch, i was already fidgeting because by then, it was about 2:30pm. WE WERE LATE! OMG! And he is still playing Mafia Wars, Mouse Trap and goodness else what! And i didn't want to come across as too eager to go out that i would blow the cover! But i needn't worry because after he decided that the cake was done, Mafia Wars were safe, bath was finally taken, i quickly sent a text msg to Kit Yee to warn her we were on our way.

Only i didn't send it to her.

ARRRRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

What was funny was that i didn't even realise that i sent the message wrongly. Right after i sent the message, i heard Chu Ian's message tone but thought that it was just another friend wishing him. Until he showed to me what was the message content...

WHOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BIG BOO BOOO!!!!! *slaps forehead and kicks stone*

I didn't quite know whether to laugh or cry at that moment. But i did know that i wanted to scream, kick and punch something. OMGGGGG....*knocks head*

Chu Ian, from then on until we got in the car, kept having this controlled smile on his face as he saw my facial expression changed from shock to disbelief to disappointment to frustration, anger, sadness and laughter all that the same time.

I tried in vain to cover up the big boo boo i made but knew that Chu Ian was smarter than that. :( LOL! But after laughing at my attempt to surprise him, he later told me that he actually knew about this plan since yesterday!!! oO! Apparently, he ter-saw a message that Kit Yee received on her handphone from Wing Lam while he was playing games on her phone!! -.-"

But he played me a fool THE ENTIRE DAY!!! There i was thinking i was sooo brilliant with my plan and control to be able to be careful to not accidentally message him (until the end lar). AND HE KNEW!!! ARGH!!

Despite that though, he was very pleased with the thought to surprise him. :) That was my consolation. LOL! But really, a BIG THANK YOU to everyone who attended the party!! He was very very happy!! :D

Later that night, we got ready for dinner with his family at an Italian restaurant in Tropicana. Turned out pretty well!! I was stuffed at the end of it though. LOL! His family was really nice and i got along with his cousin sis quite ok too! :D We took out the cake and did the usual birthday ritual of singing and cutting the cake and of course, eating it!! :DD I have a couple of pics that i will upload when i get home. :D So wait up for that. :)

I really thoroughly enjoyed myself that day and dear ar...i hope you did too!! :)

May you continue to have good health (DRINK MORE WATER ARR), happiness and lots lots and lots of love!! :P

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY DEAREST!!!!!! 

*hugs and kisses* :)

A post filled with pictures...

I have basically decided that i will just dump all the pictures in my rare moment of motivation and good will in sharing. :)

-------------------------------------- 

I recently visited this place called Tutti Frutti in Sunway Pyramid with my sibling on our sibling day out. Which was basically the very day that i was influenced to buy the magical belt that apparently made every outfit look twice better and overspent on clothes. SO, TF sells Frozen Yogurts. And before you go: "uurggg....yucks...i hate yogurt..." WAIT. Because after consuming this yummy goodness, it will change your mind about yogurt and ice-cream all at the same time. :D

Being first time consumers, the waitress walked us through the process of how things worked in TF. First, we had to choose a cup - sizes varies between small to large. 

Yeah...bad quality photo..hehehe!

Next, we got to choose and mix from different flavours of frozen yogurt! There was chocolate, mango, strawberry and etc...(i can't remember all at the moment. LOL!) Now, i didn't hear the waitress saying that we could mix the flavours...but...ah well...i couldn't think what could possibly go well with Mango flavoured frozen yogurt anyway. xD

So, you basically place your cup under the machine - it's exactly the same like how you watch waitresses in McD filling up ice-cream for you, and it is up to you to decide on the amount that you want. A little advice though, whilst it may be fun to watch the frozen yogurt twirl around and get filled to the brim of the cup, make sure you are aware of the amount because of two main reasons: you better be able to finish all of it and how much you pay is based on how much it weighs.

And so, after that, you get to put in as many different toppings as you wish. Be it: gummy bears, chocolate/strawberry syrup, small cubes of fruits, buscuit crumbs, chocolate/rainbow rice toppings, nata de coco, etc. There are wayyy too many to choose from!

Then after you are done, you have to place it on a weighing machine and based on the weight, they will charge you accordingly. :D Remember what i said about being careful about the amount? That is because all those frozen yogurt + toppings + cup = xxxweight x RM0.53 can cost you a bomb when it is all totalled up. My sibling and mine in total was close to RM40. xD And here is basically what we ordered:

A little disgusting looking...LOL! But it was a combo of strawberry frozen yogurt (i think) + dragon fruit + gummy bears + strawberry syrup + nata de coco + kiwi + chocolate rice topping = my sis's cup = heaviest = most expensive

After looking at hers, mine is very pale in comparison...but that is what happens when you keep thinking of how much it may cost and the lack of experimental excitement. 

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAH! Mango frozen yogurt + mango fruit = MINE! HAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHHAHA!!

Oh my...i didn't realise how laughable the comparison is!! xDDDD It's really obvious i love mango, isn't it? And how boring i can be!! Hahahahahhaa!! But MINE WAS JUST AS TASTY! Humpf! xD

*burp*

It took us awhile to actually finish it all and by the time we were done, we were freezing, full and ready to continue shopping on the pretense of "walking keeps us warm". HEHEHE! 

I mentioned that this will change your perception on yogurt and ice-cream is because this frozen yogurt has nutritional values and it tastes exactly like ice-cream, if not smoother and yummier. xD So, really, give Tutti Frutti a benefit of doubt and GO TRYYYYY!!! IT's WORTH IT! :D

p.s: At Pyramid, it is located on the same floor as Giant and it is right next to the electrical shop that showcases TVs on the outside..xD

-----------------------------------------

I also visited Snowflakes recently. The very one opposite Asia Cafe.

I heard from friends who have tried and was very curious as to what was so nice about that place that got everyone so hyped up and addicted. I actually have a friend that would go there every day. So yeah...i was VERY curious.

After trying though, i thought it was a little over-rated. All you ate was half-shaved ice. It wasn't finely shaved like what you have in ice kacang but it was like how it would be when the ice shaver machine were to break down.

So really, i do not know whyy people like it there so much that people were actually queuing up for place to eat. Maybe i tried something that wasn't the best of it but from what i tried from other friends on different flavours, it was still bad.

Very disappointing actually. But the only thing that was nice that i liked was their system of self-service. xD After ordering what you wanted, they will pass to you a device that is round shaped for you to bring back to your table and wait as they prepare your order. Here is how it looks like:

Yeah...they actually call it the "Beeping UFO". LOL!

Wonder why? Here is what happens when your order is up and ready for you to collect:

Aiyah..cannot rotate wor...LOL! But yeah...IT LIGHTS UP AND VIBRATES! Cute eh? xD When he got hold of it, Chu Ian looked ready to break it apart to find out how it works. Hehehe!

But yeah, aside from the Beeping UFO, nothing was nice. 

---------------------------------

On something random i did, i was waiting in the car for my sis as she went with her friend to check out prices from some hair saloon and i happen to notice this guy outside talking on his phone through his hands-free.

Guy talking on phone on hands-free seems rather normal isn't it? So i thought too!

Until i saw how he clipped his hands-free that got me bursting out loud in laughter and sneakily attempted to take a picture:

I purposesly enlarged the picture to show..can you see the shiny blue thing that is hanging on his chin? IT'S HIS HANDS-FREE!!! WAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

He actually clipped his hands-free to his SKIN! And everytime he talked, the hands-free kept dangling and moving to and fro at his chin for dear life. WAHAHAHHAAHAHAHA!

He was the highlight joke for the day for me. xD

Talk about random eh? xD

--------------------------------------------------

Just yesterday, Chu Ian and i had the whole day to ourselves and it was thoroughly interesting and educational-ish. xD

He brought me to Klang to have Bak Kut Teh! xD He always complains that the BKT around my area is no good and after a long time of boasting about the Klang version, he decided to bring me to his family's usual (and apparently the best). xDD

I am no food connoisseur so i can't really tell what was the big difference and all that. But after finding out what makes BKT tasty is the soup and the meat, i must say, now i really know why people say Klang's BKT is good! I know i sound jakun lah...but honestly, i never really gave much thought into what makes a certain dish truly tasty except that i like how it generally taste. xD

From just the smell, you can tell that the soup is really solidly BKT herbs...very traditional-like as in it's not those commercial smell of BKT. The part of the pork that Chu Ian ordered was the calf so the meat was verrry tender, soft and soooooooooo goood. Chu Ian also (for once) encouraged me to try the fats and ohhhh mmmmmyyy....IT MELTS IN YOUR MOUTH! *licks lips* YUmmmmmm...really...now i know why it is SOOO GOOOD! xD

The shop that Chu Ian brought me was packed with people because it is apparently the best and it showed from the contrast of people that was waiting for table at this shop and the one that was right behind it. So much so that i felt pressured to gobble down my food when the next group of people to take our table was standing so menacingly close and kept eyeing how and what we ate or drink. Grr.

The lady even wanted to SIT RIGHT NEXT TO US TO WAIT FOR THE TABLE! *faints*

I know the guy in the group was trying to act cool and patient by attempting to stand and read papers but really...it is no better. Worst is when the ladies (two of them) kept whispering to each other whilst eyeing on us. I mean...it's so so so so disturbing!! :( Chu Ian had to repeatedly tell me to calm down and ignore them but i was sooo very troubled by their presence that i drowned the soup in seconds. Thank goodness we were about to finish by then.

But honestly, aside from the packed place, it was really good food and experience! :D I can't wait to go again!! Although next time, we go earlier ya? xD

After that, we rested awhile before trying out something new together. :) Building a wooden 3D sailing ship from the Ming dynasty, that is. Not a family. :P

Front cover (yeah..it's very dark *grumbles at phone*)

His sister bought it for him from Australia (it is made in China..hehehe) awhile ago and decided that instead of going out all the time, we could spend some time doing something different! :D Knowing how he loves building things, why not try it out too? And boy...it really was fun! xD

Instructions

The parts that you have to "use your fingers to gently push it out"

And oooppppssss!!! It was chipped!!!!! (after i used the screwdriver to take it out! WAHAHA! Trying very hard to be very engineer-like = FAILED! Hehehehe!)

 

Chu Ian fixing my spoilt part :P

How he uses the screwdriver and yet everything is taken out nicely, beats me xD

 Looks like pretty complicated stuff eh? BUT TOTALLY FUN TO TAKE OUT! xD

The very beginning of the structure

The deck!!

Okay, from here, i know it looks as if Chu Ian is doing most of the work lar...NOT VERY TRUE! xD I did TOO! I made sure i did at least 40% of it. Hehehehehheehehehehehehhee!!

 Clearer pic of the deck! :D Cute ehh?

Ooooo! So menacing and fierce! KEKE!

It has a rudder!! :D 

TRAP DOORS!! :DD 

SOOOOOOO CUTE RIGHT????!!! xD

It even has staircases at each side!!! SOOOO ADORABLE! xD

He was doing some touchups. hehehe!

From the top! :D

IT EVEN HAS AN ANCHOR!!! HAHAHAHA!

With half of the sails

It was soooo not easy tying the strings for the sails k! The strings kept splitting and was very frustrating to do 

Look like real je. LOL!

Our patience level was running thin by the time we were done with the sails on the sides so since he had some badminton appointment soon, we decided to abandon the project for another day on the big sails. :D

Pretty cool stuff eh?? It was really really fun!! I highly recommend this sort of projects to people out there!! xD It really tests your patience level and teamwork! :D We both excelled in both, didn't we dear? xD

---------------------------------------------

At night, i went for dinner with my family at Tasty Pot at the Mentari area in Sunway. Not too bad! I whacked on just prawns and my sis got me this fish ball-like thing that seem to resemble a panda, to eat:

It's both scary and cute at the same time hor? xD Notice also the fish shaped fish paste! xD

Not scary anymore! it turned out pretty nice actually. LOL!

There was another that was in a shape of a star. xD

Well, overall, the variety is good and even the cooked food looked really yummy. Although it is slightly more pricey than others, i think it's pretty worth it! They even have roasted lamb/beef - It's not a either or but more of i am not sure which. xD But it was goooooooood! :D So, go google map it and try!! :D

K lar, i think this must be one of my longest! And one of the most random! xD Hope you faithful readers enjoy it! :)
