Im lookin forward to my another visit in this coming may. =) Went Xiao Zhu's concert with my friends and mum and aunt (who is damn big fan of show's but she's definitely young n not a siao auntie). Great concert but kinda short. his dance was like Woo~! Felicia cant help it but says "Oh god, so sexy" when he did certain dance steps. hahax~ Well i think i should cut it short and straight goes to yesterday.

Last night i had a steamboat session with my fellow colleagues at bugis. An pre-celebration for chinese new year. The food is nt too bad but had some great chat with them... especially wendy, her actions and embarassment made me laugh the whole night. Hahax~

It's damn nice.. the soft shell crab, the shark fin soup, the cakes n pastries, chocolate fondue and fou tiao qiang... yummy yum yum.. we r really 4 pigs.. nt 4 LITTLE pigs but 4 BIG pigs.. The buffet starts from 12-3pm, we reached at bout 12.20 and we finished eating at 2.50.. In between probably only rest for 20mins. damn hell full.. So tt's y i said only xj manage to maintain her weight at 40+kg.. hahax~ But that buffet is really good, except tt the ice kacang fiona n i made totally failed. Hahax~ So thanks to our princess fiona for the great lunch. hehex. after that as fiona had something on, the 3 of us went bugis for some shopping. I've spent a total bout 50bucks at DIVA itself. oh no.. But i found myself an excuse of sayin i'm buyin it for chi new yr and hey, 6 items for 50bucks, it's cheap ya.. Hahax~ But bugis is damn hell crowded.. that's sucks... By the way, This coming mon, my co. goin to have a co. dinner. hell..

Had been a long long time since the last time i've posted. Here's some of the updates.

29 Sept 07
My Cousin's 21st Birthday.
It's sheng yuan's 21st birthday, my uncle is a joker. He loves fun. He made my cousin to drink a bottle of milk ( which everyone thought is breast milk from my sis that supposed to give my nephew. hahax! But no worries, it's not.)


After he finished, my uncle says "this is what u drink when u r young. Now u've turned into an adult. It's time to drink THIS (Vodka coke)!" And my uncle made this full bottle of the vodka coke But i guess probably my uncle put too much vodka, my cousin nearly puke. haha!


And I gonna show ya something amazing bout my family... The usual mahjong khakis love mahjong so much that they could play at anywhere, even here.
On the grass, under the lamp pole. Amazing~~ *Claps*

Malacca Trip.

Went to malacca with my relatives, with my 2 cousins driving. It's a super fun trip. With all the nice food, nice environment n nice craps.. it's amazing. We ate Famous CHICKEN RICE BALLS for lunch n STRAIGHT AFTER that, we walked a few shops ahead n headed into another shop for LAKSA and CHENDOL.





It's super cheap n yummy. The shops in malacca are like with donkey years history, especially the CHENDOL Store. I walked in and i feel as if we are in the 30s-50s, in Kuang Y.M's (Refer to lust caution) times. Everything there belongs to the olden days except that we are not dress in Qi Pao or cheongsam. Even The tables n chairs are those wooden type that was used in the 40s or 50s. Here are some of the stuff i took picture from the shop.


The olden days decorations and mirror.


The olden days posters and paintings.


Saw those at the corner? The luaggage that the olden days people used, try to recall those scenes in movies. always appear in movies)


The olden days type writer and some look familiar but unknown machine.

What's more? We ate these at the night market:
Dim Sum - Any 4 piece for RM1.50
Curry Noodle - RM 2.50
Fried Kway Teow - RM2.00
Cockles - RM1.50 per plate (we ate 8 plates)
Assorted fried food - Big plate RM5.00
Bing Tang Hu Lu (Not seen in spore. A stick of assorted fruits coated with something like Mai ya tang) - RM2.00

I can only say... "I feels good~~ With my life like this~~~"

Lust Caution Review.



The movie is so-so, not because of the storyline or the characters. there's isn't much climax, one of the reason is because of same reason that makes people boycotted this show way before it's even showing, the best scenes are being removed- approximately 2 minutes of kuang Y.M's killing scenes (whereby the original one will show how Kuang Y.M shot him, twist and break the guy's neck and etc but edited version is just Kuang Y.M shot the guy to death.) AND the about 8 minutes sex scenes, including the yoga sex scenes, of Mr Yee and Wang Chia Zhi.(Both of them strip for nothing.) I agreed with Royston Tan, this edited version is not the complete art piece from Ann Lee. This safe version does not allow the audiences to see the breakthrough of Ann Lee. So people, If u can get the chance to watch the full and original version of Lust Caution, don't miss it.

Shall stop here. Gonna head to my next distination tomorrow - Hong Kong.
Will be back on tue night. Ciao, people.

Last weekend is so enjoyable.. Not too many text but Let the pic do the talking. =)

SATURDAY

It's My cute little nephew 4 years old birthday! Had a mini celebration to you know, make the kids happy.. =)



Some of my small little cousins, nephews and niece.



Damien Chose superman as his theme for his birthday (His mum says thank god he didnt chose strawberry shortcake - used to be his fav character.) Little Damien was so excited about his birthday that he says happy birthday to me once i stepped into the house and was cute enough to ask "How do you know it's my birthday?" I says "cos u've told Superman bout it and so superman told me bout it.." "Hmm.. I kick your backside." is his reply to my lame ans. Kids nowadays, no longer believing in your lame stories. Hahax~



When People are busy distributing the cakes, I caught Isaac doing this:






Catch ya, Isaac! Naughty Boy!


SUNDAY - Part 1

Attended Beloved Von Liaw's 21st birthday celebration at costa sands.. Will post up more pics upon receiving from the gals but well.. Here are 2 of the pics took on that day.

The guys pose in such a way that they look like a newly formed boyband and they named themselves "Guai Yi". This is such a fuckin nice picture. Btw, this is the way they stand initially right before we realise they look like as if they are some boyband. Hahax!



Took with my girls and I swear Min is damn good in editing n designing Pic. Lovin' this pic man and I lovin' the text..



And Also, Most Importantly, Happy 21st Birthday, my beloved!! =)

So excited, Went to the babies room to search, But hey, where is he? All the babies look the same!



There you are!



Life is so amazing...



Such a handsome boy he is...



Welcome to the planet earth, Lucas, my little nephew!

Review for SECRET - Story by Jay Chou, Directed by Jay Chou.
Starring Jay chou, Kwai Lun Mei, Anthony Wong.

It surprises me. This is the standard and quality a musically-talented person could give. Nice simple storyline, though is a little unrealistic; Not much fancy costumes, over-dramatic acting and scenes but with A up-to-standard director and a new, but professional casting. Music and Piano is the main key-thing in the Movie. Jay chou could plays the piano well, no doubt bout it. But in this movie, he had fully used his talents and play the piano so damn well, making the non-musicians asking themselves "why didn't i learn piano?". "Secret" gives you an unexpected outcome. At first, i cant really understand the ending but after having a playback in my mind, I've got the whole picture. I was thinking, what's exactly on this musician's mind? why would he come up with such story? But i really give this movie, as well as the guy behind it, Jay Chou, a thumb-up for the great job especially when this is his very first time directing a movie. Now, i could see, other than music, another talent from Jay Chou.




Bought a new handset, after using panasonic for like 2 years. Introducing, my new friend, Sony Ericsson W580i. Loving this phone because of the design and all the music-related functions - Walkman, shake control, TrackID, MusicDJ and etc. And One more thing, one of the built-in Games is my all-time favourite, The Sims 2! This gonna be a bonus to me. =)

Had finally book my hk trip, after dragging for so damn long. Rather ex but have no choice cos oct is their peak period. But Im lookin forward to it, cos i really need a break. =)

Movies i wanna watch next:
- License To Wed
- Now I pronounce You Cluck and Larry
- Most Importantly, Lust, Caution! Directed By Ann Lee

Been a month and von is back.

The reason behind why i havent been posting is simple.. I admit that i'm not that busy but i simply have nothing much to blog. Life is as routine as u could imagine. Someone asks me this : Can your life be more interesting? Silent is my answer to her. And I'm in the situation where i'm in the maze and still looking for the correct exit. "Do something that you really like." it's easier to say than done. So what if you have an interest, a passion in something? Where's the chance? UNKNOWN.

Anyway, enough of this.. Recently i did a quiz on environmental issue.. The result tells you how much harm have u done to the earth and based on our daily life, how many earth is needed to satisfy us. My results came out to be i need 2 and 1/2 earth. This means I have been using and doing more than what our one and only earth can provide.. Probably i should improve myself.. 3R - Recycle, Reduce and Reuse.

Probably u guys should improve too... Show your love to our planet earth. =)

Von will be back again some time later.

Growing Up...
I've started workin at AMEX for like 2 weeks.. Well.. every single day is busy, no doubt bout that.. Certain people there are ok, of course, there are certain people who are not.. Still trying hard to get used of the workin life since it's part of life but frankly speaking, i dislike this stage of life.. But anyway, most of my lovely friends had start working now or soon.. Realised how time flies.. We are no longer the students who always says that working life is still far away, the children who always go to the playground after school, or the babies who always cry yet being loved by others... I can sense the growing maturity in us.. Met up with the seasonz girls a few days ago.. we talk bout marriage and future.. we had even come up with our sons' name..

Fiona's: Edward
Felicia's: Edmund
Von's: Edwin
Jing's: she have no choice but chose Edison

It's gonna be fun when "Ed!" is called out and the sons stop what they r doin and wondering which ed we r calling, with those innocent face.. That would be so adorable.. However, in order to fulfill this, you'll need a partner.. Therefore, Felicia was eager to find one so to help our dear friend here, we wanted to intro our Rain Zhang to her but both seems reluctant to do so.. But it's ok.. probably they'll meet one day and get marry.. Who knows? Hahax~ Fate will bring them together... Hahax~

tomorrow is friday and like felicia says, Im really a typical working adult who'll look forward to every friday... damn... Used to thought that my life would probably different from others, but now it's proven that i leads the same old Boring-routine life as the others.. fuck...

UPDATE
Just back from Genting and Malacca Trip a few days ago... I would not say it's fun but it's a relaxing and nice trip to me... We drove there and altogether there's 4 cars, My bro-in-law, my uncle and my 2 elder cousins... Each car have a WalkieTalkie and that's how we all communicate so that none of us would lost our way. Still, It's fun even though it's a long driving journey as we all crap with each other usin that WalkieTalkie.

During my trip in Genting, As usual, went to the amusement park, shopping... BUT I FAILED to go into the casino.. I got checked by the security.. I was like "Fuck.. such a mature face also kanna check.." I gave her excuses but still,"Sorry Miss, i still need to see your ic or passport" I gave up and told her "forget it, Im not goin in." SO, end up i went shopping alone cos i told that i'll definitely able to go in so i didnt join my cousins and have no idea where the hell they are at. Then, Planning to watch Shrek 3 on my last day at Genting yet din manage to get the tix So once again, forget it.

Next destination, Malacca. It's damn adventurous man.. We have no idea what the direction to the attractions, shopping malls after we exit from the expressway from Genting. Worst, We dont even know the name of the shopping malls and etc. So they actually just stop any car and ask for direction for a shoppin mall, which is TESCO. Then at TESCO, my cousin walked over to a sales guy and asked which shoppin mall is good and how to get there.. TA~DA~ that's our next destination. Throughout my trip at genting and malacca, i spent on nothing but Food.. Eat and eat and still nothing but eat. Worst, buy more food to bring back to Spore and EAT.. Hahax~

Start our journey back to Spore at 10pm and the expressway have no Street lamps! It's so damn dark but yet not scary.. In fact, I experience the beauty of darkness of the nature landscape.. The hills, the grass and the moon, which is so much brighter than what we saw in Spore. On the way back, i started to think.. Im goin back to my city life in a few hrs time.. Stress, trouble, fustration are all coming back to me. Sometimes, I would hope that I'll be a village kid for a period of time.. So, I'll look forward to my next trip to malaysia, Ku-kok (It's pronounce this way but i have no idea how to spell, whereby there's no shopping, do nth but living in a wooden house that was build in the water, bbq for meals, mahjong, cards and ktv as our entertainment... It's have been years since the last time i went there (I used to go there with my relatives and i swear it's so damn fun) so my coursins and all are planning the next trip.

In the meantime, gonna jobhunt even though i got a job offer at amex (America Express)but the position isnt that fantastic even though the pay is AL~RIGHT~... but i gonna work there for the time being while i continue to jobhunt for a better job.

Ciao till my next post.
