Ying Jia from IDT + Fong from FairChild Semiconductor

Michael from Kobe Precision Tech + Birthday Guy

..and finally ..of course it's me! 

Alright now let the food photos fill up this blog post...that was something made by pork intestine

Deep fried crispy squid~ 

Soup of the day tastes so good - It was cooked with dried long bean according to what the waitress said.

Something 'fishy'  =D

I'm not sure what it is but it looks pretty much like tempura.

Ok let's wrap it up...happy birthday to Hang Kok and may all your wishes come true..but sorry no birthday cake for you this time *evil grin*

New Toy

Weee...showing off my new toy samsung NX11. It's a mirrorless interchangeable lens camera with a integrated APS-C cmos sensor. No more worry about noisy & blurry photos during low light condition.. yay!

People are so fuss over my choice of camera but I don't give a damn! I know what suits my preference best.
NX11 is an excellent camera!

September KL Visit

It's been almost seven months ago since I was in KL for my degree convocation. So I took the chance to visit   friends in KL during my three days weekend off. Firstly, I must thanks Sam for being my 'Ahmad' & MunEe for letting me to overnight in his very tidy and comfortable living room.

Reached KL around 12am and was physically exhausted due to the long & rough bus ride (I should consider driving for next visit). Anyway, I had a great night sleep on the sofa bed indeed.

Was heading to 1U to meet friends and catching up with each other at Tutti frutti. It was my first time having frozen yogurt and I was so surprise about the price..just small amount of yogurt without any topping cost around RM10! O_o ...what can I say?

Looking for some place for dinner with beer after 1U and my friends bring me to Sunway Giza. It was my first time there as well and I think it's a great place to hang out at night.

There are so many dining outlets to choose from. Movida Kitchen, Bar & Club Lounge became our pick for the night. There were nice food, nice beer, nice environment with nice club music, definitely a worth-visiting chill out spot.

Next day, we were having my brunch at LeVain Boulangerie & Patisserie. This bakery is situated in downtown KL where Pavilion is just nearby.

Incidentally, we went to Pavilion Snowflakes to have some dessert. Please note that I was there with several friends but I only have photos with this gorgeous lady Shervyn who was bugging me all the time for taking photo with her...

Yay! it was evening and it's time to feast. Heading to Ampang for some authentic korean food at San Nea Deul Korea Restaurant. The food served was fantastic and the service is superb + reasonable price...I simply couldn't ask for more!. Personally recommend this restaurant to you if you're looking for korean food around Ampang district. We had a great time chatting and laughing while having our dinner. We keep throwing hilarious jokes which make me laugh until I couldn't breath. Really couldn't remember when was the last time I have this LOL session with friends... feel so fricking fun to LOL with them this time.

My friends trick me again. Original plan was heading home but there's extra activities after dinner. They lead me to The Library, Avenue K and gave me a surprise pre-Birthday celebration. It was a unforgettable night...especially the 'firework' candle, I won't forget about it for the rest of my life...Thank you all very much! Let's have the same fun again on coming CNY!

The Most Boring Holidays I ever had!

Don't you wanna know what have I done during my very rare 9 days off? Of course, you don't. Coz it's my god damn life and I'm neither a celebrity blogger nor Mr. popularity...why should you give a damn about my what have I done during my holidays, right?

Anyway, if you insist and keep reading my post. Let's begin and the photos will tell the story. Apparently I didn't use my off days wisely. I either doing nothing at home or went out yamcha, movie and gathering with friends...that was freaking sienz! I should have gone on some exciting trip or something, but too bad I didn't!

Day 1 - Gathering at Old Town White Coffee

Day 2 - Morning Dimsum at Kee Tek Jia

Day 3 - RedBox Karaoke at night

Day 4 - Home

Day 5 - Raja Uda Tomyam before movie

Day 5 - Sembang at McD Autocity after movie instead of Overtime..ouch! >.<

 Day 6 - Home

Day 7 - Home

Day 8 - Home

I'm died of Boredom...R.I.P

My first international delivery

I've always been pretty shopaholic when I was in Uk. Simply because the sales/clearance price is very tempting. 

Now ASOS.com offers me the same shopping experience even I'm now in Malaysia, the only difference is it's an online shop. This is the FredPerry barrel bag I've ordered. It took only 10 days for it to delivered to my doorstep. Not to mention it's FREE international delivery. Awesome isn't it?!

 The retail price for this bag is 55 pounds(Rm275), and now it's only 31 pounds(Rm155). Alright i'm done,  now you simply have to click here www.asos.com to begin your new shopping experience!

The Style Guy

I've read an article in GQ few months ago and there was one thing that catch my interest. The thing is about 10 commandment of style. Let's get to the main point and ignore the other 9 commandments - " Thou Shalt Put Your Wallet on Diet", which I totally agree with. I hate the bulky feel of a wallet in either the back pocket or front pocket of my slim fit pants. It somehow looks like my ass has a square growth on it and it's ugly. So, I take the solution given by GQ - using a money clip and a sleek card holder.

The bulky wallet

tada~ here i go...simple sleek and elegant card holder + money clip = man truly in style ; )

Another Weekend Getaway in Hatyai

Just a little update (a very brief and quick one..) about my trip to Hatyai three weeks ago. Okay, here we go..

Once we checked in to our room in Hotel LeeGarden, we straight away hop on a van and headed to our destination - which are a few temples that me and JoJo are not very attracted to. In my opinion, temples are worth visiting for elder folks only as they likes to pray but definitely not a young people like me...*wink* ;)

There were people blowing up a lot of firecracker beside the temple to pray and wish for prosperity + $wealth$...when the firecracker finished up with a Loud BOOM...we can heard people shouting 'HUAT ah!!'

Alright, enough for boring temples now we were at Songkhla beach. There's nothing special here because only thing we can see is sand and sea?! haha But the seafood dinner at a restaurant in Songkhla was pretty satisfying as the dishes were delicious and resonably priced.

You must take a photo with this Mermaid statue to prove that you have actually went to Songkhla beach coz it's the only attraction there.

Well, after Songkhla beach we went to Floating market and then go for Thai girl show - which was a shockin one O_O'''....and after relaxing with thai massage at hotel room we finaly called it a day.

The next day (Sunday) itinery -> Shopping at hatyai market and get our ass back home!! Gonna work on Monday..so BLUE =(

Collectibles

I went to the McDonald's for lunch to get the Green CocaCola can glass last Friday. After having the fattening LARGE MacValue meals with sugary choc sundae six weeks in a row, the green one finally marks the completion of the can glass collectibles.....and you know what? I don't even gain a tenth of a kilogram *wink* ; )

Gaga has arrived

Finally I got the highly anticipated gaga's latest album - Born this Way, all thanks to my friend who bring the album all the way from Singapore to me. I'm certainly gonna keep this album rockin' my playlist through the summer!

Chaotic

WTH! my car breakdown on my way to home today. Out of sudden, the engine simply died while I was still driving. But lucky enough I managed to use the remaining momentum to drive my car to the road side. I have tried to start the engine over and over again but to no avail. Okay, this is really bad now...but the good thing is at least I wasn't blocking the traffic..

Now what?! what would be the first thing to do now? Call Kurnia Auto Assist customer support...absolutely! But where the hell am I now? Don't even know how to tell the operator in order for her to locate me. Was thinking hard and no worry...I quickly activated my phone internet service and then simply locate myself using Google Maps...android smartphone rocks! hahaha =)  Alright, able to explain my location precisely and what I did was waiting technician to come repair my car...

Damn the weather was still scorching even it was near evening...really thirsty while waiting coz I'm leaving the office with my bottle empty. >_<

Weekend Getaway

Been to Pulau Langkawi with high school friends and had a great time there. Snorkeling at Pulau Payar for me was a nightmare initially coz I have hydro-phobia. I feel scared when my feet doesn't touch the ground. But the good thing is I manage to overcome it in the end. Even though it was a short vacation but being able to chit-chatting makan makan and jalan jalan with friends is real fun! I'm dying for another trip like this...!

Simply Irresistible

Guess What!! Sushi Bonanza is BACK again. Radioactive issues?! Frankly, I don't give a damn! It's time for sushi feast anyhow~ Simply Love my stomach fully filled with the mouth-watering sushissss!!! =D

TGIF!

Last friday night was Black & White spring party. This themed party was Ken's idea because he's freaking bored during every of his weekend after work. So throwing a party and chill out with friends amidst the hectic working life is such a great idea. 

We've invited most of our course mates and they are required to wear only in black or white. But, unfortunately some of them find it pretty hard adhering to the dress code and turn up with pink, yellowish or peachy shirt. ..Should have FINE them for violating the dress code!!

We have tom yam steamboat and BBQ for our party, both were simply delicious

Nice group photo but it could be better if the yellow, pink and peach guy weren't ruining the color harmony.

Suprise birthday cake for Fong...Happy Birthday!

Goodbye Lullaby

Being a fans is not easy. Especially when I have to buy the costly album to show support to my favorite singer. (Deluxe version is Rm 56.90). Anyway, at least when I know the album comes with a free tote bag, I eventually feel that it's worth my 50 bucks. However, when I unwrap the tote bag, I found that it's a very small one =( *Disappointed*. Avril's fourth studio album - Goodbye Lullaby, not an outstanding records but definitely not a total let down. I would say it's above average. So...if you're all fans of Avril and rich enough, go ahead and get yourself a copy of Goodbye Lullaby!

- the small tote bag -

I Quit!

Guess what !? I'm leaving my current job soon. I'll start working for my prestigious new employer on next Monday! I'm so thrilled to finally get what I want. All thanks to Ms. Jac who willing to pass my resume directly to the hiring manager. Without her I might not living my dream. I feel so grateful. New environment and challenge awaiting me and I'll go all out to cope with it!

Monday Blues? Not at All!

What a surprise to me.. my boss took an emergency leave today which allows me to ease myself a little at work. Anyway work still getting harder and busier than ever, but at least I can slow down a little bit on my work if he's not around =D .

Went through office hours quite easily and went for dinner at Chopper Board @ Queensbay coz HK wanna sell his insurance to randy...and sadly I'm the audience of his presentation...again! After we strolled around the mall for a while and we fianlly called it a day. Gotta go home sleep earlier and prepare for "Tuesday Blues" coz the BOSS is around tmr! >.<

Nice little brownie with ice-cream

 

 The shy salesman and the potential client

What a day!

It was wednesday morning and I'm working as usual. Started my day with headache as the failure analysis department questioning my preliminary analysis on the customer return unit. Of course as a newbie to the industry, I found myself puzzled and blurred about those technical question asked. was trying hard to struggle through the problem and trouble until the lunch break. 

It was intended to have lunch at Kenny Rogers Roaster due to the Healthy Eating Day Buy1 get 1Free promotion. But my fellow colleagues and I failed to do so due to the overwhelming response of the promotion. The queue was long and we were unable to make it in just 1 and a half hrs break. Therefore, KFC becomes our second option.

Done with lunch, and continue with my headache in the afternoon. It was 530pm and I'm leaving the plant and give it a second chance for Kenny Rogers Roaster!! That was 6 of us heading to queensbay to try out luck and it turn out to be good. The staff in this restaurant are efficient and most importantly they are FAST. Even we get ourselves in a long queue, it only took abt 15-20 mins until we get our seats. Food was serving fast and I'm pleased with their service.

Alright, our stomach filled and it's time for movie. We were lucky enough to get strategic located seats as it was a movie day and the cinema is jam-packed. We've selected Meet The Parents: Little Fockers as our choice tonight and the movie was pretty hilarious and entertaining.

gosh..Jessica Alba looks smoking hot in this movie!

Was heading home right after the movie and I found my parking lot is taken buy someone. Sh*t how on earth people can be so inconsiderate and selfish. Hey if you're this as*h*le I'm talking about...I want to tell you that if you desparately need a place to park your car, just have your car parked in the visitor parking lot. Why go and take somebody else's lot. Please put your brain in use and THINK before you act. You have really cause a major inconvenience to me for being so selfish ...and last but not least I wish you the best with a F*** u!

wOW...done with my story of the day...good Night=)
