Playing with fire...

Today seems to be the most free for me, simply because it's selangor's public holiday. This leads me to believe a saying, "never place all eggs in 1 basket". I soon realize that without selangor's powerhouse, i have practically nothing left to do! And so there i was, thronging around KL...

And so i had a sppoky lunch with an old friend, and no, she doesn't smoke(u'll definitely know why i said so once you know her name, possible turn up in our A4J Christmas), thruout the conversation, i learnt that i once had a very good shot at becoming her bf... well in a way at least i'm glad it didn't work out, coz now she's already berpunya, and she's now working at Nirvana, yeah right, read that again. Imagine the 'product' they're handling... altho it's nothing like in a slaughter house la (it's not even fair to compare her with pork-selling ahsam. in the first place). Did i mention we had a spooky lunch? we~ had~ it~ at~ the~ cafe~~~~~~ wuu~~~~~

All was perfectly preserved even after a long time, the frankness, the closeness, the openess... Well embalmed with numerous calls and carings, coupled with special ingredients; raw jokes and info exchange(man i really dont like to use the word gossips). 1 hour was too short, to say the least, with each feeling much left to be desired. Time flies.

The Outing That Was Pre-planned

Right after morning service quickly i rushed to my car, trying to dash off asap. Shoot, car kena block by others. What to do, so i went back inside lepak abit. 5minutes later i came out only to be confronted by a church friend. Common la, why is it so hard to be punctual??! After some few minutes chat he noticed the urgency on my face and so he 'released' me... lol... free at last...

After fetching, i've to call off the planned brunch, after knowing the other party had had something beforehand. Then straight we head to Pavillion as i've already booked 12.10pm show. E11 & 12, hmm... perfect seats to start with. Earlier took a small walk around the mall as we arrived early. Eagle Eye.... the show was quite ok, provided you're an actionpack maniac! My only complaint is the logic behind casting a heroin obviously far older than the hero, summore wanna tell us she's in her 20s in the movie. C'mon la, wrinkles can't lie to us wan la... lame... Luckily those combo set prevented my stomach from growling throughout the movie...

The hand looked like mine eh?

After the movie, we went for a walk before headed for lunch @ Roadhouse Grill. Should have ordered 1 set of fish & chips instead; for we've got lots of leftovers. Poor those fish for dying an unworthy death.

Overall this is prolly one of the most enjoyable day in my life, except for some hiccups; that i did create a scene when i lost my parking ticket (but found back in gsc, many thanks to them!). Well, guessed this might even be a blessing in disguise as we'll at least remember today, the day where gsc (n roadhouse grill) made my day~!

Country backbone...

Fictional, but very worth laughing off:-

PLUS : Pay Lebih Untuk Sami

KTM : Keretapi Taktau Masa

JKR : Jangan Kerja Rajin

PLKN : Perempuan Letup Kerana Najib

DBKL : Datuk Badawi Kahwin Lagi

RTM : Rehat Tunggu Mati

BN : Barang Naik

TNB : Tunggu, Nanti Buat

Dedicated to my Beloved,

To my dear Lord that I pray;

make me an instrument of Your peace;

where there is hatred, let me sow love;

where there is injury, pardon;

where there is doubt, faith;

where there is despair, hope;

where there is darkness, light;

and where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master,

grant that I may not so much seek

to be consoled as to console;

to be understood, as to understand;

to be loved, as to love;

for it is in giving that we receive,

it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,

and it is in dying that we are born to

Eternal Life.

Amen.

A Pre-planned Outing

After Sunday service i'll take brunch but still havent figure out the venue, most likely around Kuchai Lama or just next to GT Gasing. Will then head for a movie at either MV or Pavillion. I've never been to The Garden's Premiere.

If the choice is Pavillion, after movie will drive to Jln Ampang's Roadhouse Grill where peanuts sit in barrels and shells fly freely in the house, nevermind the cracking sound u make when u walk on those shells. I wonder if they are still keeping it that way. I certainly hope so. Surely it'll be a pleasant surprise for those who haven't been there before.

After the rather late lunch, will do some drop-offs if necessary and head back home. It'll not be a late outing i reckon, as by the time i reach home it should be around 6 something.

Just in time for family dinner together... and to catch the bus. Will update u guys should this outing materialize.

Melamine in ammonium bicarbonate

Let's say you are a rice trader. I suppose what you concern is the quality of your rice and you'd do many things to make it more marketable. But would you 'increase' its protein content? Would anyone ever be bothered about the protein content in their rice? Certainly you wouldn't add-in melamine to 'modify' its protein content unless there is a real demand for some high-protein rice product right? Besides, melamine doesn't come in cheap.

I was shocked to know that the government, without concrete proof, pointed that the melamine contained in biscuit products belongs to this ammonium bicarbonate. If you didn't already know, ammo bicarb is a raising agent, which means you use it to make your dough 'fluffy', and not as main ingredient. From what i know, ammo bicarb is like a commodity, the price is dirt cheap. Who would anyone add-in high-priced melamine into dirt-cheap ammo bicarb to purportedly 'enhance' it? Simple maths eh?

Besides, who in the world would ever demand protein-rich raising agent (or even biscuits)??! Honestly, would you even look at its protein content before you decide which biscuit to buy? I wouldn't. It simply didn't make sense to enhance something that ppl won't appreciate! You wouldn't care less as long as it does its job, which is to 'raise', let the main product(flour and others in biscuit making) concern about protein level! Even as one'd desperately crave for its biscuit product to be protein rich, one wouldn't even need to look at its raising agent. You can simply add-in some milk from china given some suspected biscuits are milk based. BIn contrast, milk products need melamine because ppl really look into its protein content as they buy.

On the other hand, i'm thinking this as a political puppet show. MCA's election is around the corner. Someone hold some important post and needed something to beautify his "report card" and hence, scapegoat(s)...

24th Sept 2008

Okay, time for some mushy talk. No wait, don't think i'm prepared for it.

Anyway, at first it didn't mean to happen that way. Gosh my plan keeps changing on that particular day. Got a whole set of traveling from work, till 5.30 afternoon. Then thought of this,"Y not make it a Whole-Traveling-Day instead? That would mark my birthday memorable!" So home i head, just to change up and get "permit" for an adventurous conquest to The South...

As i walk into my room to quickly charge my phone, suddenly it turned to life and attacked me!!! The phone rang unstoppably and demanded me answer that call! Gosh! And so i obliged. And it all ended up me not alone in this trip.

First stop



First meal, Salty Roast Leg

Second stop...

Ahh~~~ The morning street of Malacca~~~

How i felt from this trip?

TT
I I

Visited a friend or two, had some fun, drank some giant fruit drink and seen malacca morning street cool way to shed my 23rd year birthday :)

My mum's beloved elder brother came for a visit~

A couple of weeks ago my bro's godfather came to visit us. Along with his wife and his son, there were also his daughter-in-law and his latest family member, Bou Kuan. I wont be surprised if one day he wants his English name to be Tyrant. Well, he's an extremely smart kid for starter, given his age of 4?(don't ask me, i forgot), he managed to speak with me in complete english, more well versed than some of my uni mates. He also speaks malay, hua yue and hokkien(he hails from Penang just so u know) too. We took them to the Hakka Village Rest. located in Sri Kembangan. They serve quite unique dish such as claypot crab rice, pot dish, etc...

Aunt, Tyrant, me showing some finger trick n Tyrant's onlooking mum

Kame~Hame~Ha!!!<---> Cheazzzzeeee~

After the meal we decided to head home, they weren't much of a shopper cause they just toured Singapore before stopping by. Guess they had enough walking already. As an after meal activity, Tyrant decided to massacre some of my grass....

For your info, there's already a thing that he surpassed me. He's got a girlfriend!!!! Lol, i mean it's not that he knows what it means but, his family are somehow thrilled to find that. Hahahaha.... man i bless this kid...

Culture brands a country

What would i invest in the event of a market collapse? For one, i wouldn't. But i reckon there'll surely be a recovery period after that, where everyone starts rebuilding. The question is, to whom should i place my bet at that time? Well, going from the history, Japanese are famous for their unbeatable pace for recovering judging from their performance at post-WWII era. I believe this is where culture value plays an upmost important role. That is why people trust Japanese car more than even their own national car. Japs are famous for their determination in everything they do. Looking abck to our own backyard, we pride ourselves with rich culture, great food and beautiful beaches. Attribute to our culture. We loved to eat, our insatiable appetite for food has driven us ahead of other nations. We have too many reasons to call it a holiday. As a result, we experience more leisure at beaches than many other nations and hence we excel in terms of makaning and makan-angining.

Give u a clearer picture of what i'm tryng to tell:

Scene 1:

Japanese bloke: Sumimasen, u see this Toyota ar, very the powerful ar, proton no match ar!

Local bloke: Ahyayya, couldn't agree more!!!(paiseh) Ours ah, we call kereta 'potong', aiyor... very susah wan...
(this applies regardless to where this event took place)

Scene 2:

Japanese bloke: Sumimasen, this sushi ar, very tasty ar, malaysian food no match ar!

Local bloke(with cynical smile): Ei brother lobak, you've only tried our nasi lemang, so fast u judge, wait till u tried our klang BKT, Penang A.Laksa, Jamban Nasi lemak, Putu mayam, papadam nasi daun pisang,.............. i'm sure ur mother won't recognise ur fat @$$ when u return home ar!(proudly walked off...)
(this only applies to non-malaysian soil, should it happen in our motherland, he'd have been brutally assaulted by mat rempits, another malaysian brand, courtesy of too much messing around and not enough thinking culture from the MPs in the parliament)

I love this country. Honestly. If not for these morons we wouldn't have prevailed. Also, we wouldn't be able to hold so many festivals with so many reasons not to go to work/ school/ see someone u hate/ pay the bill/ eat at lousy coffeeshop below office(pick one u like).

I see an opportunity

I believe in balance. Once you've gone overboard surely things will happen in a way for u to repay. As much as u've taken in the past you have to repay in future. I'm talking about the economy if u guys are wondering. The world has its way to check and balance everything, including the economy. Let's take environment for instance; u dig fossil fuel from the world, u'll have to repay the world with heat and waste. The amount will be exactly the same if u calculate on its entirety. For every 1kg fuel used, the released heat + waste from the fuel + the live it supported(eg: we are considered matter, and so do our possessions) will also be around 1kg. The other trace weigh are spent on other unseen things such as the matter in the air which the fuel burnt, don't worry, it'll come to the exact amount. So much for Newton's Third Law Of Motion. Apply it to the economy, reccession is the answer to prolonged windfall gains by certain quarters, to which i call it check n balance.

In the current economy slump i have told myself to watch very clearly. Now i have to see very clearly how do people reap harvest in this trying times. Undoubtly some will become a multi-millionaire thru this unfortunate event. An this 'check and balance' event has a periodic trait of about a decade. My guess is that by the next economy tsunami i should be ready to surf on it, provided i start preparing from now on. Also, i will have to save up while waiting for an opportunity as i reckon i'll have another 10 years grace period before the game starts.

I better put on a swimming trunk now.

Much has happened recently, more to come in awhile...

Much has happened recently. Over the last weekend, the global market has shirk off some trillions of dollars. The big boys of Wall Street have overturned their respective ships, rendering many, if not most, of the Americans jobless. Now the 'ships' across the globe are infested with bugs of 'distrust' and are leaking everywhere. One wouldn't argue if i were to say this is the best time to test a company's muscle. Pray for the world, please.

Now looking back to the East, as you might already know a tsunami triggered in Indonesia sends its effect across the other side of the world. Japan already has its first casualty in 7 years. 7 years period is based on the last fallout of an insurance company which happened in 2001. Pray for Japan, please.

Many will say this will drive us back into The Great Depression. Many sees this as a tsunami taller than our notorious jambans built by our beloved hair-rich politician, and stronger than mike tyson and masked rider(baja hitam) being put together. God heal this land, please.

On a much smaller scale, I will be anticipating much changes to take place in me. Well, looking at the sorry sight of our local market I might even have to put it on-hold, although it all comes back to the response of the other party. Will work things out eventually, prolly in 2-3 months time and hopefully it'll be of both party's satisfaction. Pray for me, please.

She's left the building

One thing i've learnt is that, when u happen to sleep with someone whom habitually snores, never assume he's in dreamland when he's sleeping quietly with u in the same room, u'll never know when he might actually tap into your conversation, amid confidential ones.

I paid a price to learn that. Not an expensive 1 tho :)

Well, holiday's over. And whilst most people had returned to their work place, students on the other hand, will have to rush back to their college/uni campus.

My only regret is that i'm unable to spend more time with her my friends who return from other states in this whole week. I did try to create more outings with her them but i admit i wasn't doing enough. Partly i was busy, and partly i was tired. I will make it back when i'm a lil' more free. Happy studying and drive safe my

friend friends.

On a sidenote, i've received an sms from a friend last nite. it's at 2 something am! I saw that only on the next morning, it's a sunday if u know what i'm trying to bring out. Busy morning. It wasn't a short sms afterall, altogether 4 parts i reckon. While i'm flattered by the fact that i was chosen amongst all her friends she recalled when she was browsing thru her phone memories as she deletes it, i can't help but to worry of her wellbeing in a place she belongs to but not longed to be. Hope you're doing fine there... and there's always an ear to lend u when u need it.

Birthday I'll Never Forget(hopefully i wont need to force-delete it)

That morning i went to pack n collect some crap at port klang. made a call to a friend but unfortunately she's not in, so no lunch with her. Next, went to somewhere around sepang to promote some crap to some crap. Crapped a lil' with them for awhile, guess it'd be wise to engage into some friendly talks before even selling anything to those crap. I've learnt that in order to be a successful man in the market place, one has to establish a concrete network and only after that, whatever u opt to sell will go like u have diarrhea; they go out (burstingly) fast!

Then i travelled further a lil' to checkout if i've left more craps waiting to be served. it's an all-travelling day for me i reckon as i've never drove to these places(klang, sepang n places i went later that day) alone.

Fast-forward to after work. As my early intention was to throw myself to somewhere outside kl, i headed down-south to melacca via seremban. It's not that i dont like to celebrate in a crowd, but i personally felt obliged to stop this trend, a trend where others will have to dig deep into their poocket just to buy me some cold-cream(most ppl call it cake) plus gifts. Pls dont get me wrong, i'm not against ppl who sincerely wish to give me presents, but the trend is ppl are asked to 'contribute' to some mandatory gift for some b'day dude to which the contributor would have no prior knowledge whatsoever on what kind of present he's contributing to. If a gift does not come from the heart, i'd rather not to have it. And if the contribution of the gift would further burden some not so well-off students(most students are poor generally) that'd make me feel guilty even more. Moreover, celebrating in a big crowd will never serve any purpose besides stimulating country's economy. One may ended up not even a word spoken to the b'day dude and left the place think, "y am i here?" A meal with a few on the other hand, never fail to foster personal relationship.

Touching on birthday; who's the one who actually gave us 'birth'?

We're 'born' on that day, but she gave 'birth' to us.

I wish that the day i was born would bring blessings to the one who brought me to earth

I pray that the one who laboured on the day i was born had never regretted that day.

On that nite itself i've sent this to my special one:
"Need not wait for me pls, i'll be late n happy birthday to u too, for it's u who gave birth to me in this special day, i love u mum :)"

i wished to express more but it's an sms and it's midnite, so instead i kept it short.

As for "why i choosed to head down-south and not to any other direction?", i guess any direction that i took that nite will also not save me from that question rite?

As to "Why are u so reluctant to disclose your companion(s) for the trip-of-the-year?", sorry, it'd create unwanted/unhealthy atmosphere and i do not intend to drag others into this. And i wish to be a man of my word.

I really appreciate all the care and attention given to me by all my friends, especially the guys in p.dickson :)

MY TRAVELLING DAY @ 23...

How Do You Not Think It's Possible?

Part of me is telling me, "Go find someone close, share with him. Afterall it's only human nature to want to have companionship".

Another part of me would want to keep it to myself. Afterall, it wouldn't be fair to burden others with your problems right? Likewise, i felt for others for the0ir misfortune but if situation prolongs, i'd feel annoyed. Not to mention the sense of submission and show of weakness once you start to share(men especially), which best explains why (deep) sharing amongst men rarely occur.

So here's the deal:

1) I disclose the tale.

2) Details and names remain anonymous to audience.

3) Audience's curiosity satisfied(altho not entirely) while burden is kept to a minimum.


Brilliant eh, no?

Job with opportunity?

Yeah i know, it's been awhile since I last blog, apparently laziness crept under my skin.
As someone who just freshly graduated, i have the liberty to ask this question:
What is a job with opportunity?

Clues many would look into...
-a job that promises steady raise?
-Or perhaps a job that doesn't kick you out even if you sucked at your job?
-Or even a job that you think that'd allow you to learn things that you'd otherwise miss out in your lifetime?

Recently i've been accepted into a company, a chemical trading company to be exact. The funny part was how i landed into this job, but that's not what i'm ready to share at the moment. Maybe some other time.

The first day in office, i was assigned to learn from my agm.In other words, i'd have to stick with him for an unspecific period. As my cubicle is currently under renovation, i've been allocated to a simple desk; some writing sheets, stationery, and a chair, right in front of my agm's office desk. I was in his room throughout the whole week, reading most of the time.It's not that i'm complaining but for the first time in my life, i'm actually getting paid to read! Not bad for a starter i'd say. And i took home 2 boxes of TaiThung mooncake, equivalent to almost a hundred ringgit worth of flour and egg yolk! Freebies day!!!

That's not all, this morning has been a historic one for me.
As i'm bound to follow wherever my agm goes, i soon found that i'll be attending one of the most prestigious gathering i could recall. I mean, this IS the arena for the big boys!

Waking up at 6am has never been that worthy. As my agm happen to be a committee member of some commerce association, he's been asked to help out and that explains why i'm up that early. Not forgetting to mention that he had actually drove me there from my home! (man this young chap is such a wonderful person!!!)

Fast forward to Shangri-La, where the conference was held,

8am, we had some light buffet b'fast sponsored by the association for the committees. It was in Shangri-La so one could guess how the food was. I choose not to touch that otherwise it'd look dirty in here. I'm saving your keyboard from your own saliva...

9am, there comes some of the big shots and more than half of the richest men in malaysia. Tuns, Tan Sris, Dato's arrived one after another. (Oso got lots of other not so famous wan la). From my count, there're well known corporate leaders such as the owner of IOI, Mines, Hai-O, Hong Leong, YTL, Berjaya, Lions Group and alot more... I did have some light moments with a very famous commentator cum gov think tank.

10am, there comes the real deal... At first glance, a very familiar face to many chinese for decades, who was conferred a Tun title not too long ago, followed by police escorted top ministers whom faces you would prolly see everyday on the news, including the second-in-command in the biggest collision party of our country. I've refrained from mentioning names here and you could ask me in person if you want to know and i'd be glad to tell :) Not forgetting a senior exco council of selangor who's currently standing for seputeh MP. I manage to grab this opportunity to get a handshake from her. Indeed, she's very charming, and to some extend, charismatic. And last but not least we have many VVIPs from China whom many are as high profile as ours. You'll see secretary of ministers, mayors, His Excellencies, Embassy delegates and many more and they're more approachable than the local ones. I've been told that if you were in china, normally these peps wouldn't even let you see them. They're heavily surrounded by comrades in that sense.

12.30pm, lunch buffet ala Shangri-La style. Spreads after spreads, people were spoilt for choice. But then again, due to the 'warmness' of malaysian eating culture and the 'frankness' of our counterparts' culture, the situation was abit chaotic.

We went off after lunch.
It was a really good exposure, albeit knowing not much people in person, only some committee members of the association's youth wing. Some are sons of some respectable figures and as young as i am.

I'm worried of them, my 2 best companions

Now i'm gonna talk about I and M, whom i've known since their childhood, and they've started a relationship at very early stage of age. They've stayed in my house on many occasions, so basically my parents adored them very much, much to the extend of a family member. But deep inside, my biggest concern was the way they live, given the fact that they stay together under a roof! I mean it's not really a big issue for these things to have happened nowadays, but my mum have expressed concern about this to me, and i too, have some reserved feelings about this too.

Recently, i've found out that I behaved strangely towards me, and much to my surprise (or not so surprised), she's already 1-month pregnant. By the way, they're not married, just stayed together. I didn't know how to react upon finding this news as i'm still finding a word to best express it now.

Well, the only thing i can do now is to pray for her and at the same time hope that M would be a good and responsible father.

Doctor & trainee joke (a must read for future doctor trainee!

One day, a consultant(let’s call him Dr Anderson, for nothing’s sake) was assigned to bring a group of trainees for some field practical. And so, he decided to bring them to a mortuary and show them some hands-on demonstration. When Dr Anderson finally found a suitable specimen, he arrange the specimen on an operation table with spotlights on it, and the whole crowd surrounding it.

“Today class, I would like to teach you two things, two very important things that would determine your future as a doctor. First, you must be brave. Brave to see dead people and also dying people. And of course have the courage to follow me as I do this…” said Dr Anderson as he tuck one of his fingers into the corpse’s anus, pull it out, and put his finger into his mouth. All of the trainees were speechless. Some even went out to puke, leaving about seven of them of whom were really bersemangat kental and did put their fingers in, out, and back into their respective mouths. Their facial expressions were horrible.

But not the consultant, as he was hanging a mild, cynical smile on his face while continuing with his lesson, “Secondly, as a doctor, you must be observant. A high observation skill could determine the life and death of your future patients. If anyone of you would observe this, I did put my third finger into the hole, and when going into my mouth switched to my second finger.”

Let imagination run wild

I ponder, when one day, I happen to stumble upon an ancient crate which promises me a powerful item, what would I like it to be?

a) A Mirror that tells the future

b) A Cap that allows me to read other’s mind

c) A Machine that turns me into the most perfect person on earth (physical, IQ, EQ,…)

d) A Watch that allows me to teleport to anywhere

e) A Glove that destroys cancer

f) A Potion that turns me invincible.

g) A Glasswatch that freezes time

Two questions here.

1)Any other suggestions?

2)And which one you would like to have?

Part 2: Sweet dream

Part 2: Sweet dream

It was an A4J concert! And the hall was grand, abit narrow in size which could only hold about 20+ people in a row of seats, with nothing less of its majestic decoration than some grand ballroom from some many stars hotels. The only thing is that the room was dark, with the only source of light is from the stage. One couldn’t see how many attended that concert as the crowd would sink into darkness as they sat further and further away from the stage, but there’s already some 300 frenzy crowd from where I could see, jumping and hollering to the music that was played. And I was there, busy manning the machines supporting everything from sound to electricity. The feeling was weird tho, with chill wind blowing from below, plus very high-intensity spotlights right on top of you as you endeavor across the stage. I don’t recall the song that was played, but it’s a medium slow song, led by Kenneth. I felt ‘empty’.

Something’s telling me that we’re not prepared to handle the crowd god’s giving us. We’ve always ask for more souls to come, yet we’ve not equipped ourselves to cater to that number. At that time I can only see ourselves as some people who don’t belong to there. A piece of puzzle is missing.

Blog while offline 1

31 July 2008

Last nite I had a not so smooth sleep followed by an over the moon dream and an enlightenment.

Part1: Be careful what you wish for

As usual, I sleep early, about 2am. At about 3am, just as I slip into deep unconsciousness, I was rudely disrupted. Matrix(or Chubby or Christmas, depending on who’s calling), my 2-yr-old cream-coloured maltese, decided to give me a hard time sleeping and kept barking to whatever he deem worth barking. At first, I’d only drag myself downstairs to take a peek and see what is it that interested him to bark. Nothing. With a very kepoh attitude he tried to circle around the porch to find something to bark to. As I was still half asleep, I hastily opened the door and, “Matrix, quiet” He silenced down and sat calmly beside a tree pot. I then quickly return back to my nest and continue my journey into dreamland. Mana tau, 5 minutes later, that mischievous little prick started to bark again, only this time in a more irritating rhythm. On and off he goes, everytime I said to myself, “One more bark and down I go”, he would stop for a brief while. Then came a time when he barked to my nerve, I went down and, “Matrix! Quiet!”. The drama goes on in circle until the fourth time I came down (it’s really tiresome to climb the stairs when you’re in the middle of a sleep) when that became my last straw. Armed with a cane, there goes “Quite! Quiet! Quiet! Quiet! Quiet!........” Ahhh… sweet dreams….

My first time

There was a time I once acknowledge someone that my house is comparable to that of a hardware shop, well equipped, with whatever i want to do can be done at home, from sewing to sawing, from building a furniture to doing some light renovation and so on. But deep in my heart i reckon there's something missing. A razor. It's a shaving tool used to get rid of ones facial hair, some elaboration for those who might think razor is some kind of pisang goreng. And so time flies as we keep living, eating and kicking with some kind of 'emptiness' in me.

Not so long ago, i've been told to shave my 'mini' mustache. Guess my face isn't that fertile as they barely grow at unnoticeable pace. It takes a few to convince me to finally take a shaving and search for that 'emptiness' in my home.

And so i started my journey in search for the mythical item. High and low i've searched, gave up 5 min later. Decided to seek advice from Master of Untold Myth, short termed MUM. Pointed me to a direction with a piece of advice. Off i go.

And there it was, still in its wrapping, eagerly waiting to be commissioned to its first task.

Being a newbie in hair shaving, i can only do whatever i can based on my experience from watching tv. Armed with a soap on my hand and a razor on the other i spent my first time with extra precaution. Extra soap, extra slow on the face.

And it didn't take long. What i have to tell about my first time experience?


Sore.

A Trip To Remember

So this is what happened in my recent trip to Penang, The Heavenly Hawker Paradise. Miraculously, my weight didn't go up as expected, and i dare not tell my trip-mates for fear of my own life. For your info i pride myself of having a big appetite for almost everything edible, almost. Being the only guy on the fray i've vowed to win this eating madness that stretches 5 days long. Sigh. Shame to say that i failed u guys out there, the girls were OWNING! And it wasn't even a fair match lol...

Skip the food section if you're hungry~

He came to die for us...

We doubted it...

And decided to put Him into tests...

One after another...

He prevails and we put our trust in Him

Apart from being with my gang, i managed to spend some quality time with my beloved auntie's family. Here we went to Genting Hill for dinner (no there's no gaming activity up there, only some tempat makan angin, makan dinner, makan durian...). My gang didn't set foot on this hill due to its ridiculously steep road plus 4 overweight homo sapiens.

Up there, very friendly environment awaited to welcome us, with choice of seat ranging from hillside for excellent view to a bridge on a road, you name it. Fine Thai cuisine were also served by actual Siamese. Truly a mesmerizing experience...

While we're on the way up and down, we stumbled upon freshly dropped wild durians~ Nothing goes to waste so we carried 1 as appetizer on the way up and another 1 as dessert on our way down.

Much to my surprise, these were not ordinary wild durians. Gigantic size with tiny seeds, tempting colour of yellowish-orange, milky aroma with faint alcoholic scent. Tenderly moist texture testifying its freshness, are all the ingredients for a superior grade durian money can't buy. I reckon these 2 durians could easily fetch RM50 if sold out.

Bugs from the 2 durians forced an immediate evacuation
