Glutton Spree

Patrick Watson - The Great Escape

My 3 days break is almost up... :(
Yesterday was supposed to be the last, but oh well...
I'm declaring another for today :D

Been eating out like crazy lately.
No wonder I've been taking trips to the kitchen more often than usual.
I swear. The daily requirement of 8 glasses of water a day has shot up to 15.
I'm not exaggerating!
Pray hard that I don't get kidney stones ...

Anyway... Went to Pantai Seafood on Sunday night.
It's located at Sungai Kayu Ara, near the steamboat restaurant opposite the Shell station.
Same area, but gotta drive further in.
Their salted egg crab and ying yong kailan are to die for...
Sorry, no pics.
Blame the stupid idiotic waiter.
He totally pissed me off.
Seriously... It took him forever to bring us a set of fork and spoon.
And when we pushed on him to hurry up, he instantly gave us the signature HIGH-FIVE!
He was a foreigner working in a Chinese restaurant.
What are the "odds" right?

As for yesterday night, went to SS2 pasar malam with the bunch.
It was crowded as hell....
And MeiShan's handphone almost got stolen.
Read her blog for the dramatic details...
Then we headed over to wai sek kai for dinner.
Turned out, I was the only one who ate there...
The rest of them ate bits and pieces from food stands.
Never knew they sold so much FOOD at pasar malam.
Then again, I don't go to pasar malam very often.
Came home and ate again.
I pretty much pigged out for the past few days xD

Today, went shopping with mummydearest and aunt, who came all the way Puchong...
Daddydearest wasn't around...
Which means only one thing...
JAPANESE FOOD!!


Daddydearest strongly dislikes Japanese food.
I remembered what a waste it was when we brought him to Shogun the other day.
He just sat there and started grumbling about how UNCOOKED the food were.
Haha... Ironic.
So... we pratically enjoyed our oishii lunch today :D
Sushi Zenmai's pretty good.
Not as good as Sake Sushi, but for the price, it's pretty worth it.
Service was mediocre though...
Took 15 minutes for our Salmon sushi to arrive.
And its served RAW... Geez...
No pictures AGAIN.
I suck at food blogging, seriously!

Mummydearest and I were crazy over the miso soup...
So, we decided to buy some home :D
I have a feeling that I'll be sick of it very soon...

Miso Soup paste

I know it's ultimately disgusting to say this, but...
The first thing that struck my mind was 2 girls 1 cup!!!
Thank God it doesn't look like that after its cooked xD

Of course, a bowl of miso soup is never complete without...

Japanese Seaweed

Seriously, this small package is more costly than the packet of soup paste.
All these are sold at the store right next to Sushi Zenmai.

I know it doesn't look very attractive, but trust me, it tastes pretty great.

I better scurry off now.
Gotta get ready to head over to Jean's supermom's Steamboat...
Yeapyeap... FOOD FOOD FOOD :D

Before I go off...
Little Pipsqueak has something to say...

ALL I WANT FOR CHIRSTMAS IS MY TWO FRONT TEETH!!!

Santa, please make the little boy's wish come true... xD

Deranged Freak

The Postal Service - The District Sleeps Alone

Remember the movie Cloverfield?
It came out in January 18th, early this year.
I just managed to watch it.
Clear full screen on my tv, download credits to mininova.org and bittorrent.

The movie seems damn real!
It's different compared to every other kind of movies.
Because this is a different kind of genre all together.
It's sorta like a fiction documentary.
It seems like a real life documentary, but it's all made up.
You get what I mean...
Anyway, it's mainly about some freaky alien invasion...
And how a group of friends overcome the disaster.
Seriously, I was sucked in my seat.
Not to mention some jumps and screams too.
Damn good.
Haven't watched a movie this good in a while.
Highly recommend to catch it!

KungFu Panda was soo cute!
I enjoyed that cartoon xD
21 was pretty good too.
Not what I've expected, but brilliant movie nevertheless...

I totally regret watching The Boleyn Girl already
Never knew they would release it here in M'sia.
Should have patiently waited and watch it at GSC instead.
Damn.... I highly recommend that too.
Interesting movie.

Gotta scurry off now.
Dinner @ Pantai Seafood, Kayu Ara.

A Short TimeOut

John Legend - Show Me

ALAS!
It's over and done with... for now.
Seriously, thank God for the one week of Raya holidays...
I really need a breather!
Just came home a couple of minutes ago.
Today's been pretty crazy.
Was out the whole day, like as though I've never been out in AGES.
As a matter of fact, it has been quite a while since I went out with friends...
Went to Carl's Jr with Jen, Nutty and HanHwa.
I don't think I can ever eat, OR EVEN LOOK, at McD's or Burger King ever again!
Carl's Jr. is fucking awesome!
I know it's unnecessary to swear... but seriously, it was damn good!
Ate the Mushroom Burger... beats Burger King's Mushroom Swiss anytime!
And it's effing HUGE!
Nutty was tipsy after the meal... overdose xD
Apparently it wasn't big enough for HanHwa, seriously guys are a bunch of military TANKS.
They can stuff every bit of garbage, and still ask for more.
Take fan thong for example :D
Anyway... it was a really good meal out with ze peeps, good de-stress for my poor soul xD
After a lil shopping, decided to leave and got stuck in ze FREAKIN' jam.
Seriously, due to buka puasa and end of office hours at the same time, the road was packed like sardines.
What's worst? I gave Jen the wrong directions!
We missed the flyover after coming out of OU and I brought her all the way to TTDI.
No
la, actually we weren't really far off track, but the jam seriously made it seem like miles awaaay.
So, yeah. Got stuck in a major jam...
And I just sat there feeling embarassed and soo
paiseh for giving her the wrong directions.
Seriously, I'm really really bad in directions xD
Usually I get free rides, so I'll just daze and day dream in the car...
Can't imagine how it'll be when I'm finally the one sitting on the driver's seat.
Might drive myself aaall the way to Kepong.
Geez... Gotta pay more attention on the road :D

Came home and went out again.
This time with Jean.
Had one of our best berbonding session.
Intended to feast at Murni's but nooo... it was closed... till 6th October!
Too freakin rich till a week's off wouldn't matter a tad bit.
So, ate home... Then headed off to Starbucks.
Hah... my first frappacino in... well, MONTHS!
Was pretty surprised... People started flooding in after 9.30-10pm.
Seriously, coffee so late at night?
I always thought that coffee's best served hot and steamy first thing in the morning :D yum

Great de-stress today.
Totally relives the stiffness of my neck.
I'm supposed to be asleep right now.
Have a pretty important interview at Taylor's tomorrow.
Their Bali Commerce Square campus is darn cool!
I saw their clean and sparkly kitchen. Ah. drool...
And they have all those hotel training stuff. Ah. Drool...
So yeah, I'm partially mind-set to head over to Taylor's.
But I was so against it. Cause' it's filled with brand conscious brats and I heard that everyday's like a fashion parade.
I can't stand plastics.
Was thinkin of Sunway College Uni... But they don't major in Hospitality.
Sigh. Dilemma dilemma.
Blah. Better scurry off to bed.
Interriogation tomorrow. Gotta get ready mentally :S

I hereby declare a full THREE days of hibernation.
So... DO NOT DISTURB =P


Fine. Call me a pig.
OINKS!

Cumulative Aneurysm

KT Tunstall - Miniature Disasters

Today's Add Maths paper was sucky as heellll *in a Jeff Dunham/Walter tone*
Serve my sorry ass right for not practicing...
Easily lost 30 marks with a snap of the finger...
I just sat there and stared blankly at the piece of paper filled with rad, pi, std deviation, x, z, y, double o q r s...
You can find all 26 alphabets in ONE PAGE...
Somehow my love for add maths seems to have vanished in thin air, along with my chances of getting an A...
Pissifying...
Right until the middle of the second paper, all that ran into my mind was...
"Screw this! I don't wanna do it anymore. I WANT TO SLEEP!"
Unfortunately my competitive compulsive disorder never allowed me to just PUT THE PEN DOWN...
Gawd... How I feel like ripping the paper apart...
It was indeed the worst for last!

If only I had the guts to fill the paper up like these instead

GENIUS


Haha... should have done this instead of leaving one of the question blank xD


These students should be awarded comical artist of the month....

Never knew Borat was such an inspiration xD

LMAO! An elephant, seriously???

xD last line's the bomb... "each line has an arrow head on the end"



Ahahaha... Classic "my dog ate my homework" kind of answer...

EXACTLY!


I wonder what's the examiners reaction...
It would be funny as hell, IF they have a sense of humour!

And my all time favorite... *drumrolls*

I KNOW HOW THAT FEELS LIKE!

These are totally unrelated but makes a lot of "sense" doesn't it??

Funny how people can even think about sex while brainstorming in maths. Freaks.

HAH. I wonder who came up with this GENIUS theory =.=

Sigh.
I'm exhausted.
One more paper to go...
Lost the mood to study for tomorrow's Bio paper...
I just wanna PIG OUT for the day... *snorts*
Tooodlezzz

Tainted Morale

Damien Rice - Nine Crimes

Whenever people mention about China...
It's always about their vast advancement in economics and technology...
Or about their overflowing population.
Or about their beautiful culture that captivated us during Beijing Olympics 2008.
And no doubt, most of us Chinese living here, our forefathers were originated from China.
So, to no surprise we constantly look up to China, no?

September, 2008, CNN reorted "more than 52,000 cases of children made sick by melamine -tainted dairy products" in China. The melamine had been added to raw milk that had been diluted with water, in order to falsely increase its protein content when assayed. The children were stricken with kidney problems. White Rabbit Creamy Candy was listed among the many milk-based food products made in China that were contaminated with melamine and was removed from store shelves. The same form of contamination was responsible for the Chinese melamine pet food contaminated scandal in 2007, during which thousands of pet dogs and cats died of renal failure after eating pet food that contained melamine.

Yet time and time again, China always have a trick up their sleeves that would shock us all...
First was their "paper-made" pau to safe production cost on meat.
Then it was their toxic canned food, some were banned in Malaysia...
Most recent was the discrimination against Yang Peiyi (Beijing Olympics)
And now the heartless mass murder of innocent babies!!!
Even China's QC director resigned!
Not sure if it's out of guilt or fear, but apparently it's a pretty serious case over there in China.
People are getting rid of fresh milk by just spilling them all over the place.
There's a non stop traffic at clinics to run a health check on children.
Seriously, this is by far the WORST and China has crossed the line.
Once the lives of innocent children are at stake, it has gone too far!
Seriously, the director of whatever factory that produced these tainted milk should be shot dead.
How many innocent children who has yet to experience what's OUT THERE died after drinking milk, the main necessity at that stage of life...
Seriously, so infuriated.
Go surf through world news, and see pictures of innocent children suffering due to GREED and plain STUPIDITY of men!

Oh...
And does White Rabbit Creamy Candy sounds familiar to you??
This is THE WHITE RABBIT CREAMY CANDY

Like wtf right?!
Back in the primary school days, I used to eat this like... well, like "ze best candy in the world!"
For 20 cents each, it was like lollipop that melts nicely in your mouth...
You have no idea how revolted I feel right now.
*gag*gag*gag*
Today's news reported that in Singapore, a research has discovered that the White Rabbit Creamy Candy has contents of melamine.
Our government has yet to report any discovery of melamine in the products sold here.
But a word of advise : STOP CONSUMING PRODUCTS FROM CHINA
Seriously, I'm scarred...

Thin Line of Tension

Tristan Prettyman - Breathe

Two weeks down, one more agonizing one to go...
Seriously, I'm sleep deprived.

Only had 3 hours of sleep last night, and even then no peace.
Never study right before you sleep, you end up dreaming about what you last read.
So can you imagine what I dream of after I studied Sejarah...
Yeah, I know, I'm making a big deal out of this trial.
Indeed it's just a trial, can't imagine how it'll be like during the real ASS deal.

Thanks to blogs like this...
I'm hooked on E-Shopping!
I can't help but visit sites like Clothesbucket and DressingLab each time I come on.
Seriously, check the sites out.
Usually Shopaholic's Den scouts around for clothes and features it on their site.
But not EVERYTHING is eye catching...
I've seen clothes that make me go "OMG they actually wear that?!"
Some people are either blind or just.... Well, blind!

Speaking of clothes...
I have some fashion crime photos for you to bleed your eyes out...


Janet Jackson's latest concert tour
Obviously she's trying to outdo her brother's fashion statement...

Strike two!

Seems like she's gonna sweep her trash off her skirt... I mean pants.. Err.. SKANTS!
Geez... more like skank...

Strike three! And you're out!

There are so many "wrongs" on her and I don't know where to start.
To begin with, what's with that skin-tone sleeves around her lower arm...
And that fake "I Love Mother" tattoo (those kind of tattoos are amusing!)
Plus that... Scarf that looks like a scarf but I don't think it's a scarf...
Most obvious one is that ridiculous HAT that looks like a giganto popsicle stick bulging outta her head!

These are worse than her nip-slip at SuperBowl with Justin Timberlake!

Well, alright... This ain't EXACTLY a fashion crime...
If I were to say so, I would be stampeded upon by raging Avril-wannabe's!
Trust me... there are tonnes of them around here.
Started of with her skin tight white tank top that showed off her black bra strap.
Then she made ties sensible for girls/women to wear.
After that she brought that BRIGHT PINK tutu!
Now she's always seen wearing Scottish quilts and netted leggings.
Hah. No one can pull that off like Avril without making a NEGATIVE fashion statement.
In other words, I'm sick of being blinded by all the double Ls' lalaness...
who are trying so hard to be like her
Wannabes that obviously CANNOT BE x|

Yeah I know
Seems like I'm lashing out on every bits and pieces of issues...
I have nothing interesting to update.
Haven't been going out much.
Going out as in going for a MOVIE or FEASTING or SHOPPING!
Um. Strike that. E-Shopping seems like a better resort nowadays.
ButBut... Speaking of movies :D (yeap... here I go again)

Movies to anticipate :D

This one features the most mouth watering cast EVER!!
Ed Harris from Gone Baby Gone and the villain in the most recent National Treasure.
British veteran Jeremy Irons! Seriously, he's accent will blow you away!
Put aside the fact that I'm crazy over British accent, he's pretty charismatic.
Viggo Mortensen from the amazing LOTR.
And not forgetting Renee Zelwegger, the only female cast I know from the bunch.
Release on the 19th of September in USA (limited screening)
Will prolly reach here in... say... November perhaps??

How about this one??
Shia Labeouf is back!
Well, he's never really gone, but obviously he slowed down a lil' after Indiana Jones.
So, here's the chance to catch him again.
Also starring Michelle Monaghan (Mission Impossible 3 and Made of Honour).

Release in September. Haven't seen the poster here yet... Or the trailer...
So... Guessing it won't be out so soon :(

Perhaps this too?
Nah...! Who am I kidding. Another sex related slapstick comedy...
After watching Don't Mess With the Zohan, I've basically given up on watching movies like this.
Too disturbing.

Well, not many nice movies this season.
Which is good... for now...
Limited TEMPTATION for me :D

toodles!

Solemnly Untitled

I have two words...
"I'm Screwed"

Heh. Ain't life great?

A Lil' Request O' Mercy

Duffy - Mercy

It's closing in to 1am now...
And I've just finished cramming in the last info for tomorrow's dooms day.
Yes, I'm freakin worried about tomorrow!
It's only trials and I'm panicking like I've gone total bananas!
Can't imagine if it's the real exam day itself...
Might keel over and give myself a cardiac arrest...

"Kill me... Kill me now..." (quoted mind you =P)

For sweet serenity of SLEEP x|

Stark Raving Mad

30 Seconds to Mars - Battle of One

It's been a week of SPM trails, and I'm going bananas!
Everyday is the typical "shit shit shit, I should have started earlier!"
Each paper went on smoothly until SEJARAH...
Seriously, you have no idea how much I despise Sejarah...
I found the objective paper yesterday ridiculously EASY.
Don't get me wrong. Seriously it was...
butMAJORbutbut... I could hardly answer half the paper with confidence.
Whoever set the paper decided to play a shitty joke on us by giving all the direct questions...
I mean, obviously everyone burned their friggin midnight oil to memorize all the ridiculous names and organizations' motives...
It's infuriating!
I spent God knows how many hours memorizing SHIT and I could hardly answer the paper.
Yes I know. The fault's on myself...
But do you see the irony??
I'll bet that the subjective paper on Monday is gonna be tough as HELL...

Alright, enough of Sejarah...
Been ranting about it non stop for dayS

So, this morning I woke up, later than scheduled...
and decided to pick up The Star to "update" myself on all the political mess that's going on.
Yes. There will be a heavy shower upon Petaling Jaya this evening because I have done a miracle!
Anyway... If you haven't picked up the morning newspaper...

Raja Petra (Malaysia Today), Tan (Sin Chew reporter) and Kok (I'm not sure who xD)
were detained by the ISA for allegedly being a threat to security, peace and public order.

Raja Petra detained for raising racial issues against Islam on his blog.
Tan detained for reporting the racial comments made by Datuk Ahmad Ismail.
Kok detained for... I don't understand why. Something about petition against a mosque.

So yeah, basically this whole racial thing is being raised again.
After so many years of "peace and independence", looks like it just won't quit.
And there's a big hoohaa over the fact that the government is restricting the media's freedom of speech.

Another "IN" news, is the MPs visit to Taiwan for an agricultural study...
And apparently some oppositions flew over after them.
It's pretty funny. There's section in today's The Star stating...
MPs visit to Taiwan : 'Agriculture' trip
Opposition's visit to Taiwan : 'Hunting' trip
Something about Anwar's promise on September 16.
And something about the assumption that the MPs are "running" away.

Gah. I don't know nuts about what's going on exactly. Just bits and pieces from the newspaper.
Not gonna make any assumptions and comments on it too....
Beware... ISA has eyes at every corner of the web.

I know what you're thinking exactly.
Why on earth am I suddenly interested in all these political issues.
But why don't you ask yourself : Why are you not?
I mean, we do LIVE in this country whether you like it or not...
and no matter how determined you are to flee overseas the minute you further your studies.
Let's face it. This is our homeland.
And no matter what, we are citizens of this country.

So, really... As a young citizen, I don't think it's ridiculous to be concerned.
Whatever drama the politicians are going through has to stop.
I'm really a "noob" in all these political stuff.
But from my point of view, the issues going on seems ridiculous.
The ego of an MP and his refusal to apologise...
The arrest of media to hush hush...
and the outbreak of people who're dissatisfied and raged...

What's next??
Seriously, someone's gotta put a stop in all of these sillyness.
Till then... I guess all I have to do now is stick my nose into pile of shittyness
and "focus" on my trials...

Sigh... two more agonizing weeks of torture.
Toodles~

The Pain Behind Sejarah

Citizen Cope - Let the Drummer Kick It

Do you know the difference between a Saidina and a Kalifah??
Does Khalid al-Walid or Abu Suffian ring a bell?
Or maybe al-Arqam?
Hmm... how about Abu Talib?
Yes, yes I have a point to make...

Please someone tell me, how on earth can I memorize all those names??
Seriously... I don't even see the purpose of it.
Geez... Been studying Sejarah non stop for the pass few days, and it's killing me.
I know this would sound like a total bullshit...
But I actually DO NOT mind learning Sejarah...
BUT!!
All these Islamic history is really jamming an aneurysm in my brain!
And I bet a million bucks, I do not stand alone on this!

Funny thing is... I got pretty excited when I got to the last chapter of Form 5 Sejarah
after seeing the header Perang Dunia Pertama and Perang Dunia Kedua...
Finally! Some world history...
BUT nooooo... to my outmost disappointment...
YES OUTMOST...
It's only 6 pages SHORT!
Both World War I and II, all crammed up in 6 friggin pages...
Like... hellooooooo?!

There's even the Cold War...
In 2 pages!!!
Double hellooooo??
And all the Islamic history?
FOUR long and excruciating chapters x|

Seriously...
I wanna learn about WORLD history... Not just...
Nevermind... wouldn't wanna get all racist like how our politicians are nowadays...
I wanna know more about Julius Caesar...
Or Christopher Columbus
Or more about Gandhi, he was mentioned so much but yet so little information about him.
There's Cleopetra, King Henry, the great Queen Elizabeth, the Civil War (okay, maybe that's US history)
Or maybe, Genghis Khan??? Or or... Martin Luther King!

Well, you get my point.
Really frustrated about our education system.
It's so one-sided.

Hmph. Bleak.
