Apples and Wines

Women are like apples on trees.

The best ones are at the top of the tree. Most men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they sometimes take the apples from the ground that aren't as good, but easy.

The apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, they're amazing.
They just have to wait for the right man to come along, the one who is brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree. Share this with women who are good apples, even those who have already been picked !

Now Men.... Men are like a fine wine.
They begin as grapes, and it's up to women to stomp the shit out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with !

MidValley

Of all days my aunt asked me to go to MidValley to shop. This is because my cousin Janet needs to get something for her oral presentation and my aunt decide to take her to Metrojaya to shop. Don't ask me why must it be Metrojaya. 

I left my house and head off to MidValley. It was a clear traffic on Federal Highway but suddenly the jam starts at MidValley. I was shocked on how heavy the traffic there is to enter MidValley. There are so many cars wanting to go into the car park but the car park is already full. The only one that I saw available was the Premier car park in Gardens. Oh my! How am I to get to that car park?

It seems that I have to drive on big round around MidValley and pass the entrance of Gardens Hotel and the Shopping Mall to go up Premier car park. Just to go one round it took nearly half an hour. This is nuts. What I fear then was the availability of parking space -_-" What a nice way to start your shopping day. But I was in luck as when I head up, there was a parking space next to the entrance waiting for me ^_^ Yes! That cancel off my frustration a bit after being stuck in the jam to get into MidValley.

Once I got in, I went and look for my aunt and cousin who was already in the shopping mall. I head off to MPH to meet them as they were shopping in there. The shopping mall was pack as usual but I was surprise as half of MidValley was in darkness while there was light at the other half. This seems weird. After MPH we head to Metrojaya where my cousin had pick her blouse but my aunty complain that it is the wrong size.

I didn't bother to believe my aunt as she is bad in looking. She would match the latest trend on us but not think if it is suitable or comfortable to us -_-" I asked my cousin to try it on again and to my surprise, it fits her well but I do not understand how come my aunt wants a smaller size for her -_-" Then she told me the trend is body hugging tops -_-" If my aunt had gotten a smaller size for Janet, I fear it might pop when she is doing her presentation. The only lose part was the lower part of the top. The other parts just fit her nicely. In other words, Janet is thin but taller and slightly build ^_^

Once we are done with the top, we head to check out the shoes. Unfortunately, Janet doesn't know how to wear heels as she can lose her balance so there are only limited choices. Since time was running out and Justin, my other cousin, was hungry, we forgo the shoes for next round and head off for food. It was then that the electricity went back to normal for the other half of MidValley. Whoa!!! I do wonder what happen that causes the electricity failure in half of the building.

It took us a while before we went to Yo Sushi as we decided on Japanese food. At first we wanted to go to Oh Sushi but my cousin say it was too pricy. Unfortunately Janet is comparing the price of sushi in Philiphines and in Malaysia. She told me that in Philiphines, one slice of Salmon cost RM1 -_-" No wonder she complain the price here is pricy. Yo Sushi is situated at the new renovated corridor heading to Gardens. The place looks attractive at the outside which attract us to go in.

We then sat down and the menu was given to us. The variety was limited. Even those sushi going on the conveyor belt was limited. The same things kept coming. The prices are all transparent as everything you order comes in that particular colour coded plate. I can say we are damn crazy as we have all 6 colour plate. It starts with the green plate at RM3, the blue plate at RM5 then purple plate at RM8 while the orange plate at RM10. RM14 plate is pink in colour and the grey plate is RM16. 

 First we order 3 cups of green tea and a sprite as Justin do not know how to drink green tea. Then we look at the menu and started to order some stuff like Teriyaki Chicken and Salmon followed by Chicken Katsu Curry rice. My aunt then order a Cawamushi for Justin for him to try. I then ordered Miso Soup as it is RM5.50 unlimited which means when we finish one bowl, we can ask for the refill ^_^ I think I ask for 5-6 times refill as we share the soup and the soup was nice.

Once we finish placing our order, it was time to attack the conveyor belt for food. We first took Salmon Nigiri, then Tamago Nigiri. Justin love the Salmon Nigiri that he took 2 plates. Then I saw the "Fu Chuk" Nigiri and took that one. Justin took another plate as it was delicious. I can't blame him as it is his first time eating Japanese food. Then Janet who can't help it took a Salmon Sashimi. Wow!!! I then took Chicken and Prawn Gyoza. While waiting for the food that was ordered to arrive, I took a plate of Crunchy Tofu but it wasn't that fantastic. To even out the taste of dislike on the tofu, I took another plate of Chicken Gyoza.

   Then the food we order slowly arrive one by one. Whoa!!! It was a very filling meal and also pain to the wallet. As desert, Justin took 2 plates of Mochi. It seems he has them at home but he didn't eat them but seems to eat the one outside -_-" Lucky me I was not asked to pay for the bill. My aunt paid for the meal which came to a total of RM190. Unbelievable right? But overall, the presentation was good but I do not find any attraction to go back there to eat. I can actually get some of their helping for the same price and 4 times bigger in serving. But it was a good experience in Yo Sushi. I'll give is 6 out of a 10 scale. 

After lunch we call it a day as my aunt need to catch a bus back to Penang to work. So we went home after the meal ^_^ 

The Duck and The Devil

There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm. He was given a slingshot to play with out in the woods. He practiced in the woods; but he could never hit the target. Getting a little discouraged, he headed back for dinner. As he was walking back he saw Grandma's pet duck. Just out of impulse, he let the slingshot fly, hit the duck square in the head and killed it. He was shocked and grieved! 

In a panic, he hid the dead duck in the wood pile; only to see his sister watching! Sally had seen it all, but she said nothing. 

After lunch the next day Grandma said, 'Sally, let's wash the dishes.' 

But Sally said, 'Grandma, Johnny told me he wanted to help in the kitchen.' 

Then she whispered to him, 'Remember the duck?' 

So Johnny did the dishes. 

Later that day, Grandpa asked if the children wanted to go fishing and Grandma said, 'I'm sorry but I need Sally to help make supper.' 

Sally just smiled and said, 'Well that's all right because Johnny told me he wanted to help' 
 
She whispered again, 'Remember the duck?' So Sally went fishing and Johnny stayed to help. 

After several days of Johnny doing both his chores and Sally's; he finally couldn't stand it any longer. He came to Grandma and confessed that he had killed the duck. 

Grandma knelt down, gave him a hug and said, 'Sweetheart, I know. You see, I was standing at the window and I saw the whole thing, but because I love you, I forgave you. I was just wondering how long you would let Sally make a slave of you.' 

Thought for the day and every day thereafter? 

Whatever is in your past, whatever you have done... And the devil keeps throwing it up in your face (lying, cheating, debt, fear, bad habits, hatred, anger, bitterness, etc.) ..whatever it is...You need to know that God was standing at the window and He saw the whole thing. 

He has seen your whole life. He wants you to know that He loves you and that you are forgiven. He's just wondering how long you will let the devil make a slave of you.

The great thing about God is that when you ask for forgiveness; He not only forgives you, but He forgets. It is by God's grace and mercy that we are saved. 

Go ahead and make the difference in someone's life today. Share this with a friend and always remember: 

God is at the window! When Jesus died on the cross; He was thinking of you! 

Burn Injury

I think it would soon be a trend for me as I wouldn't know that some action done can cause injury. This time it is a pure carelessness from myself. Who say that steam wouldn't burn? It burns and it burns like you are being lit by fire I think. Due to my carelessness, I got myself burn.

I arrange my kitchen in a way where all the cables and extension power strip are behind the kitchen appliances. I had a extension power strip behind my rice cooker. I was cooking rice and the rice was just cooked when I wanted to switch the oven where the swtich is on the extension power strip. 

My hand went over the rice cooker, where it is keeping my rice warm, to the power strip when I felt a burning sensation. It was then I realize that my hand was burning from the steam release from the rice cooker. I think I was dumb not to know that even when the rice is cook, there is still steam being release from the rice cooker. 

Once I felt the pain, I quickly went to the basin and turn the tap on. I left my hand under the running cold water for a bout 2-3 minutes. Even after that the burn feeling is still there. This is a painful lesson to learn from my own carelessness. What make it worst is, I was told that the best thing to do was to pour soya sauce on the burn part instead of wash it under cold water. If not, take toothpaste and put it on the burn part. 

 I do not know why but I was told that if I wash it under cold water, my skin can just peel off. I didn't really believe them. Today which is the 3rd day from the day I got burn, the burn part is very dry and the skin is peeling off. Besides that, it looks like a bruise with very dry skin. This is bad. I do not know what else to do now but to put lotion so that it would moisture the skin and hopefully it would then heal nicely and not leave a mark.

The Fish

Lunch as usual would be a headache as we do not know where to eat for lunch. Since it rain in the morning, it is consider a "No" to eat at the cafeteria. This is because the food had extra incrediant from the rain water.

Since we are on training still, we are able to go for lunch together. Once training is over and we are all on the floor taking calls, we would all end up either take-away our lunch or be eating alone. In other words, we would all be having lunch separately except for those in the e-mail team.

Today we decided to go to the cafe near the office. Since there was 7 of us, we had to go upstairs to seat as downstairs only provide table for 4 people. We sat down and look at the menu. There are a lot of variety of meat, fish and seafood to go with white rice and a drink. Besides that, there are fried noodles and soup, cakes and snacks. 

Occassionally they have special meal set like Mutton Rendang set and Nasi Kunyit set. But that day there is no special set so I ordered Nyonya Curry Chicken with rice. Eric too ordered Nyonya Curry Chicken with rice. Lucas  called Mushroom Chicken with rice while Daniel had Manchuian Chicken with rice. Dave decided on Sweet and Sour Chicken with rice and Amzar ordered a bowl of noodles which I forgot which noodle.

Jess was the special one as she ordered Sweet and Sour Fish with rice where they serve her with a whole fish. I can't believe RM7.50 for a whole fish. I thought they would serve a slice or those fish slices but no, this one serve the entire fish. This is unbelievable. 

Overall, lunch was nice but I regret that I didn't order the fish. I should order the fish next time as it is worth it. A whole fish for less than RM10 and served with rice, vegetable and a drink. 

Too Busy For A Friend

One day a teacher asked her students to list the names of the other students in the room on two sheets of paper, leaving a space between each name. Then she told them to think of the nicest thing they could say about each of their classmates and write it down. 

It took the remainder of the class period to finish their assignment, and as the students left the room, each one handed in the papers. 

That Saturday, the teacher wrote down the name of each student on a separate sheet of paper, and listed what everyone else had said about that individual. 

On Monday she gave each student his or her list. Before long, the entire class was smiling. 'Really?' she heard whispered. 'I never knew that I meant anything to anyone!' and, 'I didn't know others liked me so much,' were most of the comments. 

No one ever mentioned those papers in class again. She never knew if they discussed them after class or with their parents, but it didn't matter. The exercise had accomplished its purpose. The students were happy with themselves and one another. That group of students moved on. 

Several years later, one of the students was killed in Vietnam and his teacher attended the funeral of that special student. She had never seen a serviceman in a military coffin before. He looked so handsome, so mature. 

The church was packed with his friends. One by one those who loved him took a last walk by the coffin. The teacher was the last one to bless the coffin. 

As she stood there, one of the soldiers who acted as pallbearer came up to her. 'Were you Mark's math teacher?' he asked. She nodded: 'yes.' Then he said: 'Mark talked about you a lot.' 

After the funeral, most of Mark's former classmates went together to a luncheon. Mark's mother and father were there, obviously waiting to speak with his teacher. 

'We want to show you something,' his father said, taking a wallet out of his pocket 'They found this on Mark when he was killed. We thought you might recognize it.' 

Opening the billfold, he carefully removed two worn pieces of notebook paper that had obviously been taped, folded and refolded many times. The teacher knew without looking that the papers were the ones on which she had listed all the good things each of Mark's classmates had said about him. 

'Thank you so much for doing that,' Mark's mother said. 'As you can see, Mark treasured it.' 

All of Mark's former classmates started to gather around. Charlie smiled rather sheepishly and said, 'I still have my list. It's in the top drawer of my desk at home.' 

Chuck's wife said, 'Chuck asked me to put his in our wedding album.' 

'I have mine too,' Marilyn said. 'It's in my diary' 

Then Vicki, another classmate, reached into her pocketbook, took out her wallet and showed her worn and frazzled list to the group. 'I carry this with me at all times,' Vicki said and without batting an eyelash, she continued: 'I think we all saved our lists' 

That's when the teacher finally sat down and cried. She cried for Mark and for all his friends who would never see him again. 

The density of people in society is so thick that we forget that life will end one day. And we don't know when that one day will be. So please, tell the people you love and care for, that they are special and important. Tell them, before it is too late.

Fruits Day!!!

Every Monday and Wednesday is Fruit's Day here at work. Normally there would be bananas, apples, pears and sometimes grapes. Today when the fruit basket arrive in the pantry, there was only green apples and bananas. Susan went to the pantry to get the fruits. When we saw the fruits, we then head off to the pantry to get some fruits. I went and help myself to 2 bananas. They are huge compare to normal.

Eugene went and help himself to 2 bananas and an apple while I took for Amzar 2 apples and a banana. Eugene was doing his mail at that time but when he saw what I took for Amzar, I think the gears in his brain started to work. He then make his master piece of art with those fruits. The end result??? There is nothing to say about it but would be shown in the picture below -_-"

 

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

Since I drove to work today, I gave Amzar a lift home as he has to take his game consoles home and also he wasn't feeling well. Lucas came along too. Eugene couldn't go home as his mails are not done yet. It seems unfair as there would be those seniors who are done early with minimal mails while Eugene who is new got stuck with the harder mails and in a big bulk. 

On the way home, we were stuck in the jam. Lucas was cursing non-stop. This is the first time I see him cursing so much and also so aggitated. He couldn't sit still and was restless. I wonder why??? Before this he told us that he is meeting his friend for dinner. It was later we know that he was meeting a girl for dinner. No wonder he was work up over the jam. Unfortunately for him, Amzar took a video or a recording on Lucas while I was driving Amzar home. 

After dropping Amzar off, I rush to get to Petaling Jaya before 8.30pm. I then went for speed where Lucas freak out. It was funny. I hit 150kmph in Kesas and Lucas was like whoa... but I couldn't maintain it as there was cars blocking me -_-" But it was a short trip and fast one. I think Lucas has a trip of his life and he would be thinking twice before he tell me to speed ^_^

Friday Night

It is a Friday!!! A day before the weekend ^_^ Hahaha...My colleague have been planning a movie night again. This time we are going to watch Wall-E. Unfortunately the tickets were fully booked when we did an online booking as we did kinda last minute planning. So we went and buy the tickets on Thursday. We bought the tickets for Wall-E at 8.30pm in Pavillion. 

On Friday, we were all stuck in the office till close to 7pm as Eugene haven't finish his mails. Once he was done, we have to wait for Jess who went to reheat her dinner. She is on a vegetable diet on Friday. Once she was ready, we went downstairs where we split into 2 cars. We did the splitting easily. We have 2 sets of couple and 4 so-called single people. So the couple all go in one car while the so-called single went in my car ^_^ We then head to Pavillion where there was not a jam from our office.

Once we reach Pavillion, the problem starts. Parking!!! It took us a while before we got a parking. Coincidentally when we found a parking, we saw Jess in the car with her boyfriend, Jason eating dinner. Eugene was acting cute and innocent again and say that they are making out in the car after their meal that was why they drop Susan and Stephen first. The finding for a parking space eats up our time and when we head to the food court, it was close to 8pm and the movie is at 8.30pm.

Susan and Stephen had already found a spot to sit and was waiting for us. When we reach, we took turns to go order our dinner. I was second last to order while Lucas was the last. We then sat and ate our meal. We took our time as we know there is a commecial for about 15 minutes so we can afford to be late 15 minutes from the time stated on the tickets. Lucas was in a hurry as he ate in full speed in his serious face. We were all shocked when he finish while we were all still drinking our drinks. 

Once we were done, we head up to the cinema. Amzar and Stephen were missing as Eugene play a prank and told them it was in cinema 7 when it was in cinema 3 -_-" But luckily it didn't cause much trouble. When we went in, there was a short film on a magician and the bunny. It was funny. When it ended bout 5 minutes later, Eugene announce that the movie is over we can go home now ^_^ I really wonder. Eugene is so cute and innocent with the way he talk. A joker but not really one -_-" 

Wall-E started after the short film. It is not that interesting but there are hidden meaning in it. The story is basically about how polluted our earth is with the rubbish being dispose by us. The rubbish then pile up till so high that no humans can live on earth anymore. All humans were leaving on a space ship which was made like earth but the life-style is so robotic as you do not need to move much. The humans on the ship was over-weight till they do not know how to walk. Besides that, they do not talk to one another face-to-face but over the video phone -_-" I think one day we would be like that too. Wall-E main job is to clear the rubbish left behind by humans. But one day there was another robot send to earth to look for plants. If the plant is located, it means it is time for the human in space to return to earth. But the auto-pilot of the space ship refuse to let them go back to earth. 

It seems that Amzar and Eugene fell asleep during the movie where Eugene scored the most by sleeping 3 time throughout the movie ^_^ For me, it was a nice movie but slightly boring as not much excitement for me. But what to do, I went to watch it the second time but realize it is actually not bad.

Training On Gaming Devices

My job scope requires me to have knowledge on all the products being sold by the company. I have gone through their control devices, like mouse and keyboard, wireless DJ (not sold in Malaysia), webcams, audio and gaming devices. Besides that, I'm also required to be trained on 2 other products not sold in Malaysia but are launching in countries like Australia and New Zealand.

Last week I had my training for gaming devices before I go for my final week training on a security wireless cameras. During the gaming training, we did our usual theory on the gaming products before we do a hands-on where we play with the product and get to know the product better. Due to that, the products we are selling are also supporting game consoles like PS1/2/3, XBox/ Xbox360 and etc.  

Due to that, I have a colleague who owns a PS3, XBox360 and also a Wii. I do not know how come but he actually won one of it from lucky draw. How lucky he is. He was kind to bring his PS3 and his XBox360 for us to do testing on. Besides that, he brought some nice games too so that we can have some lay-off time from training and just relax. 

In the end, we did learn a lot and to see if the products are compatible or not. If there is a problem with it, we are to trouble-shoot the issues as we are sure to have customer who face the same issue. This would actually make our life easier as we are aware of the problems and we can give the customers the best customer service when they call in to ask for technical support.

During our last day of training, we had more fun then usual. Lucas was having so much fun playing the XBox360 that he didn't realize that he was being filmed or pictures being taken. It was a fun time. Amzar, who is the owner of the game consoles was also kind as he lend me his PS3 to play at home and also his Xbox360 to Eugene to play. We have fun during training as we get to learn new things and also have fun playing with the products.

Night Out for Pool

After work, me Eugene and Lucas went home together. It was one of the rare occasion where I drove to work as I went and give Amzar a ride to work as he has to bring his laptop, PS3 and his XBox360. We went out for dinner at Asia Cafe and Eugene called his brother, Errol to join us as he was at home and had no plans. 

After dinner, we went up to Asia Cafe pool center and played 2 rounds of Fooseball and bout 4 round of Pool. I haven't really play fooseball but I know a bit on the game. I manage to fair not that bad but Eugene and Errol are like pros. Lucas was trying his best and he even manage to score a goal ^_^ As for me, I can't remember how I did for it. 

After 2 rounds of fooseball, we head off to the pool table where I pair with Errol while Eugene pair with Lucas. Eugene break at the first set and they won the first set. Second set I break but lost the set. Third was Lucas to break and his team won the set. At the last set, Errol break and we won that set. It was funny the way we were all playing.

Lucas was so serious when he plays that it is scary. But when distracted, oops...the ball just miss. As for Eugene, his favourite phrase for the night is, "It's all about the chalk, all about the chalk baby!" Damn. The way he said it is so cool. Hahahaha...Didn't expect that to come out from him. Errol is similar to Eugene in a way but when they both distract each other, it is funny. Hahaha...

There was a part in the game where Eugene got a call from him girlfriend who is studying aboard. It was also his turn and he has to hit the ball. He is short of one hand to rest the cue on and Lucas volunteer himself to be his cue rest. Lucas just place his hand on the table so that Eugene can rest the cue on his hand and hit the ball. It was funny but he manage to hit the ball into the pocket. He then had to hit the next ball where the same thing happen but this time he miss.

 

The night was filled with entertainment and endless laughters. But I pity Lucas a bit as he got tease by both Eugene and Errol. Normally he only gets it from Eugene but when Eugene is with his bother Errol, it is double the 'fun' for the brothers but double the teasing for Lucas. We left about 11pm as we got to work the next day and we had bigger plans for the next night.

Father's Love

This is a very touching video on what a father would do for his son. I cried watching this short video. Below is a short note on what it is about. 

"A son asked his father, 'Dad, will you take part in a marathon with me?' The father who, despite having a heart condition, says 'Yes'. They went on to complete the marathon together.

Father and son went on to join other marathons, the father always saying 'Yes' to his son's request of going through the race together.

One day, the son asked his father, 'Dad, let's join the Ironman together, to which his father said 'Yes'.

For those who don't know, Ironman is the toughest triathlon ever.. The race encompasses three endurance events of a 2.4 mile (3..86 kilometer) ocean swim, followed by a 112 mile (180.2 kilometer) bike ride, ending with a 26.2 mile (42.195 kilometer) marathon along the coast of the Big Island.

Father and son went on to complete the race together. This is a really touching video. It reaffirms the immeasurable love parents have for their children

This shows how much our father loves us!

Movie Night with Colleagues

After such a long time finally a colleague of mine, Lucas arrange a movie night. He has arrange to watch The Mummy 3. I suggested we go to Pavilion to watch as it is close to our work place. In the end, I did the ticket booking at GSC Pavilion to watch the movie at 7.30pm. 

On Monday, me and Lucas drove to work. On the way, I pick Eugene from his home and meet Lucas at Kelana Jaya station before driving to work as Lucas doesn't know the way to the office. We reach the office at 8am and we went for breakfast at the cafeteria. 

After breakfast we went up to the office to start work. For me, I have training for the day as usual and would end at 6.30pm. The tickets have to be collected 45 minutes before time. That was the stressful thing the whole day. But somehow, we manage to overcome that. Eugene and Sufian helped me and they went to Pavilion to collect the tickets first.

At 6.30pm, we left the office and head off to Pavilion fearing the jam but there was no jam. We were very happy and head off to Pastamania to have dinner. It is a pasta outlet where Amzar introduce which serve good pasta and it was good. We had our dinner there with no worries as there is 15 minutes of commercial before they play the movie. 

We were not late for the movie after dinner. The movie was good. The storyline was a bit too short as they could have make the action part longer. The part where Jet Li and Michelle Yeoh fight, it could have been longer too as it was too short. But it was ok for the movie as I was with good companions ^_^ After the movie we then head home as we got to work the next day.

Li Ing's Birthday

On the 5 August, it is Li Ing's birthday. Elizabeth gave me a call and asked me to join them for dinner. I have no idea where is the dinner taking place but all I know is Elizabeth would be giving me a lift to the dinner place then to my home after that.

I arrive at Taman Jaya LRT station close to 7.30pm and waited for Elizabeth to pick me up for dinner. Then she told me that we are having dinner at Jaya 33. I was lost as I do not know where is that place. For once I do not know where is the latest shopping area or place with nice food -_-"

When we reach there, Li Ing was there waiting for us. We then went to D'Italian (I think that is the name of the restaurant) which is situated outside next to True Fitness for dinner. We went inside the restaurant to sit as the lighting was dim outside.

We then sat down and look at the menu on what to order. It seems that Elizabeth was here before that was why she introduce us to eat there. We each ordered a bowl of mushroom soup which was huge and it was delicious. Elizabeth and Li Ing both orders pasta while I then Lamb ribs which was cook with bread crumbs. It is also the special dish for the month. It was fantastic but the lamb was a bit overcook.

In the end of the meal, I had a pot of Caramille Tea which was delicious. I drank it without sugar as it was already sweet for me ^_^ We then just sat there and chat for a while before heading home as we are all tired after a long day work before dinner.

My Crazy Lunch Meal

Today was an unfortunate day for me as I was jinx with my drink. It was bout 12 noon and my colleague, Jess asked me and my other colleagues, Daniel, Susan, Stephen, Lucas, Amzar and Raven for lunch. Eugene was to follow but he had things to do so he went for lunch on his own.

We went to Al Wira, which is around the corner near Masjid Jamek LRT station. All of us order our food and drinks. I had Nasi Bryani Ayam and Milo ice. The others too order their food and drinks. When the food arrive we started eating. My food is spicy and I drank a lot of water. I then ordered another drink which is ice water as my Milo was finishing.

Once I finish my rice, I then turn to my Milo and drank it. It was almost finish when I tilt the cup and to my surprise I found something inside. It was a dead small cockroach in my Milo. ARGH!!! How can this happen. There was some Milo in my mouth that time and I wanted to spit it out but not sure where. I then took the cup and spit it inside. Then Daniel was looking at me in wonder how come I spit into the cup of Milo which isn't empty yet.

I then took the cup and show them the unwanted visitor in my Milo. They were all shocked and Jess was disgust as she too just drank her cup of Milo. Lucas who was sitting beside me had the worst reaction as though it happened to him when it didn't. This is GROSS!!! The boss then minus the Milo from my list. Then we were wondering what else would there be cockroach present and we remembered Lucas ordered Fried Kuey Teow which was dark brown in colour. We just scare him that he might have ate a cockroach without knowing.

In the end, when we were about to pay, we saw them about to serve some ice blend chocolate I think. It was so brown that it looks like shit -_-" This is scary what they really serve. After paying the bill, we saw a dead cockroach just at the shop's door step. Oh my, is this a place that cockraoch frequent visit??? It was after I return to the office that my other colleague inform me that the cockroach is an added ingredients from time to time as he took got a cockroach in his Maggi Goreng the other day -_-"

I think I have to be very careful when I order Milo the next time and be very careful at where I eat. I just have to be aware that there isn't any cockroach around that might just hide itself in the food and become extra ingredient in either the foods or drinks.

PC Fair 2

I went to PC Fair again today. Hahaha...I went with my dad today. We took the LRT to KLCC and it was pack. I'm lucky as I have my monthly pass so I escape the crowd who has to queue up to exit the LRT station. Phew!

Once I reach the convention center, it was extremely pack. I was wondering what is happening before I realize that there are a lot of things happening at the same time. There was this Nefful Conference happening there and there is some tour group around. These are the factor that contribute to the crowd at the convention center.

The first booth which became prey to me and my dad is the Sandisk booth where we got a thumbdrive for my sister which in the end she didn't want as we bought the wrong type -_-" Communication error there. After that all the other booths which sells printer as my dad want to check out the printer and fax printer. Besides that my dad is looking for ink refil for his Gel printer. I know you must be thinking typo error as it should be Dell but the brand is Gel.  You can check it out at this link http://www.folex.com/index.php?cat=22

Besides that, I went and got myself and my sister new ear phones from Sony. I need a new one as the old one is being abuse badly and I do not want to kill it. It is the Ipod's ear phone and a replacement for it cost RM100++. Once we are set, we head downstairs where my dad purchase Kaspersky anti-virus package. Then it was off to any shop which sells desktop harddisk. I got a 320GB IDE HDD for my home server as IDE is in the process of being face-out here. Then we hunting for a laptop bag for my aunt where I saw a cool one from Lexma.

The bag is so cool and I would like to own one but tight on budget so I have to forgo it. I bought it for my aunt as she say she wants it. There goes my cool bag for myself -_-" Here is the link to check it out http://www.lexma-usa.com/products

After we bought the bag, it was time to head back. The LRT was pack when we got in but it cleared off when we reach KL Central. The train was pratically empty as we head to Kelana Jaya station. It was fun to check out things with my dad and bought some nice things. Lucky me for my dad sponsor me my new HDD ^_^

PC Fair

I can say that this is the first PC Fair that I went to where I'm using my own hard earn money to buy things ^_^ I think I sound crazy on this ^_^

Anyway, I went to the PC Fair on Friday after work with Shirley. She was waiting for me in KLCC where we would head to the convention center together. The crowd at KLCC LRT was crazy as it was so pack with people that it was hard to move around there. So instead of walking through Aquaria, we walk outside the garden. I thought can get some cold fresh air but it was warm air -_-"

In the convention center, there was not that many people as when we went in, it was close to 9pm. Time for closing! So we rush through and see what they have as I plan to go again on a Sunday ^_^ The first booth that caught my attention was Sandisk. I went there and bought my M2 card for my phone. I got the 4GB one. I feel so happy as I paid with my own money ^_^

Then we rush off to the other halls. There are a lot of things and I went and browse the Logitech products there also while looking for other things. It was cool looking around and keep myself updated. At least I can plan what I need to buy and head back on Sunday and buy ^_^ Hopefully I can get some nice things on Sunday when the stalls are not all close like now.

P.S. Sorry no picture as the card is already in my phone which acts as my camera also ^_^

Dinner At A Closed Shop

Today, as usual I would wait for Shirley before I head home. Since her brother, William is working in one of the booth in PC Fair, I assume I can take my time in the office before I head to meet Shirley. I was halfway playing Condition Zero 1.6 with my colleagues when Shirley called to say she is done -_-"

For once she finished early when I was playing -_-" I then pack and went to meet Shirley in KLCC. It was very pack in KLCC and the queue to buy ticket was crazy. After meeting Shirley, we head off to PC fair to look at things and wait for William. When he was done, it was bout 10pm. We then rush off to the LRT to take the LRT home. When we reach Kelana Jaya, it was 11pm already. We then went back to hunt to food before we sleep since we haven't have our dinner yet.

We went to Kwai Sun for dinner. I know dinner at 11pm is crazy but that's how it was that time. We then ordered out drinks and foods. We were served fast. When I was drinking my soya milk, the shop started to close. I was amaze they close and leave 3 cups outside -_-" After that, the shop where we ordered out food also close. In the end, we were left there at the shop when all the workers have gone home. We were the only one there at the shop and we look as those workers head home -_-"

I'm shocked they left the cups and plates there over-night. Haih...I think the cats and dogs are going to have a feast at the place where me, Shirley and William sat. Lucky we are not the first customer of the day to see those ^_^

Unfortunate Encounter With Cars

Three weeks back I had a bad experience with my car. I remember I woke up late on a Saturday morning and I had to rush to work. The day before I had a bad day and didn't sleep well. In the morning, I didn't check my tyre to make sure there is air in them. Little did I know that there was a small nail which poke into my back right tyre. The tyre was losing air slowly.

I didn't know nor did I realize there was something wrong as I drove to work. I was also speeding as I was racing against time. Suddenly, I felt a bump and it was like I was driving on 3 wheels and not 4 wheels suddenly. I panicked. I was driving on the rim on the flat tyre. I slowed down and drove to the side of the road to change tyre. I didn't know what I am to do that time when 2 guys came and help me in changing the tyre. 

I was lucky that I got help. It was an unforgetable time for me and it is haunting me still when I drive. I'm so scare the samething would happen again -_-"

On the other hand, last night, 31 July, Daniel called me about 9.30pm. I was thinking he wanted to ask me out for yam cha. But what came out of his mouth was, "My car battery ran flat. I need help!" -_-" He left his car lights on and it drain off the battery. I then went out to see what I can do to help him. I took him round to look for a battery shop when my car didn't manage to jump start his car. 

We went round but didn't manage to find a new dry-cell battery. Daniel was left with no choice bu to call his mum till he got her. He finally got her and his mum send their family foreman to come help him. When the foreman arrived, he just charge the batt but there was something wrong so he went and check and tighten the connector as it was lose. Now I realize it was the connector which was lose that I failed in jump starting the car.

It seems that Daniel tried pushing his car and start but was a failure. He push his car from Darul Salam to the main road near Starbucks. I salute him for that. After the foreman tighten the connector, the car can charge back and it was solved. His foreman then told him not to ask others to jump start for him as it can kill both the car batteries. It seems Daniel using a very high quality battery which recharge itself if such incident happen. Besides that, the circuit board for his car battery and mine is totally different. Haih...

The main concern is for Daniel to get home safely and it did happen. His car is in good shape once the foreman came and help him solve his problem ^_^
