A Trip to St. Anne's.............

It was another family reunion. Papa, Mama, Grandma, Uncles, Aunties and tons of Cousins joined in this year.....nothing much this year.......more likely to be the same with the trip the year before but anyway enjoyed the company and the short family gathering right after.......



* St. Anne's..................................




* PW's second trip..............the bugger at the far right of the picture is another cousin of mine....




* We were made to climb moutains of steps to reach to the peak. This was how a person would looked like during the climb........




* Cousin Sim, begging for CPR from his brother after the climb..........damn sia sui being too near to these freaks......hehehe.....



* One candle for each member of the family..........plus another one for the new car.....ngek ngek ngek........




* Anyone could clear my doubt? Which part of St. Anne did they extract the water from?

My New Ride.........

This post is to satisfy the lust from Kenny(SMT), Seenboy, Isobel and Peeka......I got my car last Friday. Nothing much to be proud of.....for the car still belongs to the bank....I took my very first personal loan. Can't sleep for the first few days.....not because I am getting a car, it was because I was too busy calculating how much I will be owing the bank........sakit hati yooo.......once I was enlighten, I am back to my normal sleeping routine.......conclusion = worst case, crawl back to Papa, show him my 10cent's face and beg for money...hahahaha but that will be the last resort well of course.....





* Front View.........



* Rear view......



* Side view..............




* Interior.......Looks like space ship......Being an analog man, I don't actually know how to operate those buttons....all I am capable of is to switch on/off the air-con and the radio......





* An Apek with a whole lot of debts......had to sell off my shirt for the downpayment.....

What a Great Weekend.........

Let me tell you what I did this weekend. I travelled more than 1000km in 2 days. Saturday morning, drove all the way from Ipoh to Tampin. Had a pit-stop at JieJie and JieFu's place to fetch MengWai and MeiMei. That makes 8 of us all together.......next pit-stop, A-Farmosa resort........




* This is the ONE piece of furniture I love at their home.....the massage chair.....I need to get one to myself..........ohhhhh yeaaaa.......nice niceeee~~~~~~




* Everyone seems to be so energetic. But I was so freaking tired at that moment.........


Right after some light refreshment, we headed down to Melacca. Tight schedule? Ask Jiejie, our planner for this trip (her plan changes every 30 minutes......) Fetched KitKit from the Uni and headed to find food........everyone except MengWai and MeiMei almost died of hunger......the 2 lil ones had their milk earlier.....




* Everywhere raining........on such great outing all of a sudden, raining shit and dung......




* The Sunshine Boy............


After going round and round Melacca.......Klebang, Jonker Walk, etc.........those recommended places were either closed or fully booked......we had no choice but to drive further to Bert's (I just remember the name of the place, not the location)....




* Papa was so happy at that moment, he started pouring beer to everyone thinking that it was juice...........





* MengWai wanted to try.....I bet JieJie and JieFu will kill me if I put the glass near MengWai's watering mouth........





* Everyone gobbled up all those food in the speed of a lighting.....btw Mama was sick.......some people had sea sick, some flight, some will even feel dizzy on the road....Ladies and gentlemen, my beloved Mama had all at one go......Last time Mama vomitted even before the plane took off...hahaha....once the plane started its engine, Mama's engine also starts.......bluek bluek bluekkkkkk.....
After the dinner, PW, KitKit and I had a stroll at Jonker Walk.........sent KitKit back to Uni and headed back to the resort to catch some Zzzzzz.........Awaken by the sound of engines nearby.....PW and I went to investigate what was wrong with Malaysians lately.......and we landed at a drifting circuit.......



* Engine very loud......car very slow.....hahahaha Stupid event....how lame how lame.....I ride my bicycle and make the turning also faster than most of them.....





* Papa proving to us that he didn't get any hangover from last night.......




* MeiMei and I......I recently found out that MeiMei is actually heavier than MengWai....
After breakfast, we went to Seremban.....visited the so-called 'SiewPau' Empire.........SiewPau = BBQ Bun/ Pau Babi.......hehehehe......I don't fancy the taste of it.....




* Very impressive for a bakery.......




* 90% of the purchase is for my colleagues and clients......Nicus....nahhhh siew pau ar.....makan la......
Next, jalan-jalan cari makan. JieFu took us to a great place for beef noodle......


* JieFu said this is a distinguished eatery serving beef noodles......




* The Beef-clan........




* The Non-Beef-Clan.......hmmm...ladies don't take beef meh???




* Nyum nyum...........
After the brunch, JieJie and family headed back to Tampin while Papa, Mama, PW and I balik Ipoh lo......after dropping Papa and Mama in Ipoh, PW and I drove to Penang without further delay.......tired liao la......btw I took my new car last Friday.......hehehe nice car nice car....after 2 days, the mileage reaches more than 1000km hehehe......


* Show you guys the car later......

How Ignorant..........

I was doing my regular weekly shoping at a nearby hypermarket and guess what I found. By neglecting simple things you're actually making a fool out of yourself......I strongly believe my blog readers have the ability or have the minimum IQ to differenciate a Papaya and a Guava......




* Do these look like seedless guavas to you??



* Close up...........If these were really seedless guavas, then I really need to see a physiatrist to clear my head........



* This is how a guava looks like.........were they just ignorant or plain dumb?




* They should make me their marketing manager........at least I can show them how real guavas look like.......worst case, I won't be selling chickens and advertised "Pork for Sale".....



* First World Facilities, Third World Mentality (Think about it)...............

Dinner at Dragon-i.............

Never throughout my stay in A3-9-8 back in Uni life I've taken any.......I would like to stress again....never ever taken any advice from Rob......but hell I might just give it a shot......Let me show you what Rob said when I had a bad dinner at Swensen's.....



Robin Liew: the queue tells how good the food is maar, its like a rating scale, more ppl = more star = higher rating




* I kid you not.....this was the actual queue.....I waited for a freaking 45 minutes before they lead me to my seat......





* hhmm.....very impressive oriental feel...........hope the food is as good.





* Siew Loong Pau (Lil dragon dumpling).......not dragon meat......its PORK.......damn......




* The most expensive Wantan I've ever ordered.....RM10.....KNNCCB....the taste also really really dissappointing......PORK too




* Noodles tasted like flour......meat was cold (PORK).....at least put in microwave la.....




* PW never ate so much pork in a day before in her entire life.......




* The only non-porked dish......but too expensive by the standard.....



* Cipet...the most expensive meal I've had this year.....not to mention....TASTELESS.......
Note: Rob is taking a course to be a pilot........so next time when you're on a plane and you hear something like....."A very good day ladies and gentlemen, I am Robin Liew your captain for this flight. We are now entering the air space of Lalaland........." Please take a look out from the tiny window by your seat.......you will most probably still be on the ground....I am never ever taking any advice from Rob ever again......cipet........

Happy Birthday Papa......

Papa is 58 years young today. Last Saturday I had to rush back home to meet up with Jiejie and Jiefu. They wanted to give me a lesson in watches and they told me that the price of watches will increase from 1st of July due to the GST increasing in Spore. Jiejie wanted to get me a watch for my wedding and wouldn't want to be a victim of such illogical government scam so we stormed around Ipoh town to get the best deal.



* Always my favourite even if he's trying to act silly for the picture.


There wasn't much store selling branded watches in Ipoh. Branded as in Rolex, Rado, Tag etc.....not swatch, adidas or what so ever sports' brands.......we went to Old Town (Not the kopitam), Jusco and the best of all Syuen Hotel. Can you believe it? To get a watch with a renowed brand you will have to go to a trade centre in a hotel..........haih...Ipoh....what a town..



* Is Jiejie gaining weight or was it my focus problem?



* As always, the experts......they're expert in Cars, Diamonds, Watches, Events, and a hell lot more.....believe me....they know everything.......




* This pasar malam-liked package of a Rolex is actually worth RM34,000.00......OMFG......sell off my car also cannot buy......




* I went for a more reasonable one.....since I am not paying for it, so the price is not my concern....hehehe I got myself a Tag......RM3.8k with some discount of course......



But anyway, can't really show you guys the watch. Jiejie said she will only give it to me on the day of the wedding. She doesn't wanna look empty handed in front of the relatives on that day......after concluding the purchase, we headed home to have a nice homely dinner prepared by our chef whom always cooks with her heart......Mama...




* While we were dining, MengWai and MeiMei were busy minding their own business.




* Celebrated Papa's birthday earlier along with MengWai's belated birthday.......
After the dinner, we did what most Ipoh folks usually do on the very same weekend. We attended an Expo organized by......Dunno who, and inconjunction with.......Dunno what....as long as there's alot of people around and free of any cover charge, we will be there that's for sure.......abit KAYPO la.....



* Can't read Chinese so don't really know what the Expo is all about....





* Who in the world is Jimmy Chia by the way? Jimmy Choo I know la.......




* As usual, my experts doing survey for my wedding photos.....


Just a thought that I had for a very long time. To spend several grand just to take those wedding pictures taken is such a waste......just imagine, when will any wed-couple reopen their wedding album for a glance? Anyone of you did that after your marriage? Let me enlighten you as to when the wedding album will be REOPEN. It will be most probably be opened by your wife after a heavy quarrel. She will look at those pictures taken years before and cry even more. After all those drama then the album will go back to where it belongs......STORE ROOM....so you think its worth it??? (Hopefully PW can skip this paragraph and still leave me in one piece). All those preparations make me broke........I blame it on the custom.....Screw all those WongFeiHong who came out with such ridiculous wedding custom......I will elaborate more after next month where all my hard earned money gone to.......




* My beloved duo.......how nice to have them around more often.....
