Basketball + Bat Kut Teh

After like so long .. finally I get to touch the basketball again ..

After church, met up wif the gang, went to Chris place for basketball, thank God for the good weather, rain just stopped after that, so we all can really play around .. I wasnt really in mood due to what happen earlier ago .. So I really just go all out, sorta all out but not that aggresive yet .. but I guess im still agreesive to them .. Snatched ball from Alicia .. really sorry for that. Tho I score a 3 point after so loooong . I mean really really long. But it feeels good .. so I let it just scream it out. OooooooooooooooooWaaaaaaah !!!!

Aggresive playing sure u haf to pay wif few scratches and injured knee .. not a new thing to me.

Went to William's place for swimming, I mean the rest, not me .. I was sitting around sleeping .. haha I was really tired after the game and coz woke up so freaky early .. Take a shower in William's house and we head to Kuchai Lama for yummy bat kut teh .. 11 of us 21 bowl of rice ? lol .. that is pretty scary. The meal was good .. really good.

Times, I do enjoy going out like that, running around the court , let the sweat drop on the floor .. jump for rebound .. taking 3 point shots and doing all the marking .. I feel good.

Farewell 2007 ! Welcome 2008 !

31 December 2007 - For the 1st time I actually join frens for count down. Well, not really a count down afterall, is more like a BBQ gathering among few frens .. and watch the fireworks from fren's house.

After picking up Pohly, meet up wif William and Kelie at Pyramid, we went for the very last min shoppin for extra stuff that we need for the nite. After shop for everything, reach Vell's place at around 9. William they all already there and set up the fire.

Everyone is having fun, me - having most of my fun time infront of the pit - BBQ all the chickens and try to make them nicely done wif good color and texture. I dun really know how does it taste like tho, U got to ask the rest of them.

Serene, Lance and Chris having fun in the pool

Happy Year 2008 !! Is the year of Sound The Jubilee !

A lil dedication to all

Another picture of fireworks. There is more .. but realise blogger haf this limited space for image .. better save them. For more please visit My Flickr !

A lil respect is what I want

I do hope I can get some lil respect in the family, day by day .. I have to non stop finding where to keep my stuff, there seems no place, every single cupboard, table has been remove from here and there. Sooner or later I wont have any more space for myself.

That is when for me to say bye to everyone .. which wont be long ..

Is really a small world after all

Sometimes really wonder is the world really that small.

Pass few days, I've been randomly meet talk to someone from facebook, millions of users .. and guess what .. I actually got someone same year wif me in secondary school and just few classes away, and someone from same church as well ..

Speechless ...

Christmas ended in few hours time .. and tomorrow is the watchnite ... another long day for me.

Singapore Garden - Swiss Cottage Restaurant, UK

There is quite a number of ppl that I know of goin to UK .. hmm .. So since I've been there, kinda, mostly stay in London. But heeeey ! I guess this is my 1st time actually posting some pics from UK, after back so long .. was really busy tho.

So here is a lil thing that I wanna share among my frens, well, sorry all this food that I took is not in Malaysia, but in UK. Here is what happen.

I do haf a distance relatives stays in London and he drives some sort of cab, not a London Cabbie, but a diff type, more like sending ppl to airport or so. So .. he contacted us, and decide to bring us out around in London and get some really nice food. So here is my personal favourite. My comment was - " For once I actually forgotten I'm in London " The food is heavenly !! I dun usual post bout food as u all frequent readers know bout that. But this is really special case.

The shop is operated by a Singaporean, the shop has been established there since 1984, yeah a pretty long history shop. The shop name is Singapore Garden. But hey, there is 2. This one I talking bout is Swiss Cottage Restaurant, not the one located at Chiswick - also same Singapore Garden, but that for take away only.

Here are the pics, dun mind the pic actually jumle up from starter to main course.

Main Course - Fresh Scottish Lobsters, Naturally Steamed on bed of noodles

Lets take a closer or side look of it =) Drooling ?? This is my personal fav.

Is kinda cooling that time, but hey ! Who can resist of the ABC ?

If not mistaken this is Starter - Crispy Aromatic Duck. Which U suppose roll it with some cucumber and some sauce .. and eat it like a spring roll .. yummy .. yummy ..

Pork Satay !! Roast til just nice ... juicy ..

Starter - Spring roll !!

This is a bomb ! Fresh Steamed Diver Pick Scallop ! Is super super fresh ! Served wif some glass noodle on top of it. Nice and Simple and tasty

Lets take another view of it =)

There is more I ate of coz, I missed out the Kuay Pie Tiee anyway .. hahaha ..

Wanna know more information ? Visit Singapore Garden

A lil note to all my fellow passengers + some 'fun'

Erm, today during lunch time, a parent called me and telling me bout some stuff .. and asking me keep my eye and kinda take care of the children .. I agreed on that issue.

Is kinda sweet that how much the parents know bout their children tho. So to those peeps that often travel in my car ! I really dun mind, and yet I will actually alot appreciate that if your parents actually asking who is fetching u and pls dun hesitate to give my number to them k ! is alwiz to be safe in that way. So they know where u all when go out wif me .. and at least they got extra person to call if they cant reach u !

Good example - few years ago, LiEn and TianAn. And u might wanna consider EstherLiew as another diff case, which the dad called me to pick them up. LOL .. parents do trust me.

~ + ~

In this few days time, U can say Im pretty lifeless .. or so. But hey ! I actually feel so pissed on someone's post bout someone and I actually decide to flame that someone that I dun even know.

Lifeless eh ? Up to u to judge in my situation. When u realise someone post bad stuff bout ur best fren .. and start mocking them down.

What u goin to do ? Keep quiet ? Flame back ? or laugh ur heads off .. I actually will prefer laugh my heads off .. but .. y do I choose to flame ? I simply not in good mood as well .. and yeah =D Just .. for fun.

What you think ? Childish is what u gonna say bout me ? hahaha .. I wont mind. In fact .. I think I really am in that situation. Put ur hand at ur heart .. and ask .. what actually u goin to do =)

SS2 CG Potbless 2007

So .. on Friday which is 30/11/2007, the SS2 CG actually had the potbless. This time Im guessing we had few new ppl actually join us for that nite, and hey ! Uncle Patrick actually dropped by wif a bucket of KFC, which added to the main course.

This is my .. 2nd or 3rd year attending the CG .. and the number of new ppl join in our CG still growing ! Well, not as fast as last year tho .. but this year we having Linda joined us as well .

So for the nite, We had lots of dishes ... Im guessing quite alot. Food is really delicious, almost tried everything, from pizza to fried rice .. sowee Chrstine, cant try ur cooking again ..

When we wanted Weng to say grace .. it was funny to us, but ouch to siew mai XD

Here is some pic for that nite - We also celebrate Weng's, Aarons, Angeline (not choo), and Christine Bday ! As you can see we got 2 cakes, due to communication prob, we actually had 2 .. lol. Is double blessing ! Both are choc cakes =P that shows how much we love choc

These are the 2 choc cakes !

The peeps that came that nite ! A lil ordinary normal pose for the camera

Now, lets haf some "trademark" of the SS2 CG - And Meiyii !! y are u giving thumbs up ?

When u had Baskin Robins, U will haf dry ice .. so we just starting playing wif it.

Without my 50mm (Attached to meiyii and hyii's D40) I at least able slow down shuttle for this pic. Nope not some hot coffee, but dry ice.

Movie - I duno what show was that :P

I haf to admit that this time I seriously duno what show I watched last nite, I mean I do know wats the story bout, but heeey . .. I duno the title of the show.

Just a quick post, coz Im actually down wif flu .. I just need more rest I guess.

The show is starring by Dustin Hoffman and Natalie Portman I suppose =P I told u, I wasnt really awake yesterday was just attract by the show.

The show is bout some magical toy shop, and the original person in charge/founder actually know he is going to passed away after living for like 243 years (?!) and he decided to pass the whole shop all to Natalie portman, in the show, her name was .... nvm cant remember the long names. Is pretty touching, and really is wort lots of thinking after watching, but for my case, I start thinking during the show. Tho is funny sometimes, but I guess I din really larf at all, even Olivia thought I was asleep. Like what happen to me when watching Exodus .. wait is it exodus ? I cant remember, but I do fell asleep til Jerm knocked me up.

Watching the show, sometimes, u really like what the movie said. Is really that u need to appreciate what you have, and believe on your own ability, no matter what you are doing. Like a block of wood, seems useless, but who noes is a magical block of wood that all u need to do is imagination and .. more like break thru from the block of wood itself. Dun really get stuck in the square wood.

Another thing is .. according to the show, in forget what book of shakespear, he actually just say "he died" to tell what happen to the character, no metaphore or so .. u dun need to use bombastic words to describe that, he died means he died, is just simple as that. Some ppl just haf to really care so much bout someone's death. I know is hard to accept the truth that a person that u are close that actually leave this world. But what else can you do other than crying ? Y not just live life to the fullest ? And .. really just appreciate your daily life. There is so many things around you that u really can take a look at it, probably u might wanna just stop walking so fast and take a look around you ?

There is this part in the show, the lil boy named Eric if not mistaken, using paper and pen and try to be friend with the accountant of the toy shop .. they called him as mutant, but his name in the show is Henry. Is just like there is barrier or communication .. is pretty touching when the "convo" goes .. tho there is a glass in between of them. The lil boy wanna play checkers wif Henry, but Henry just replied "Love checkers when I was a kid", "Im working now" and "I never stop working .. " and the lil boy goes "oh .. =(" Sounds sarcastic or sad ? I think that is for us to judge by then.

Just some thoughts of mine .. a lil thing to add, Natalie portman in that show .. actually reminds me of Julia Andrews .. lol when she in Sound of Music that time ! I din mean Natalie Portman is tat old ! lol .

New outlook ?

So .. just a lil update, I actually went for a hair cut .. and for my 1st time I spend 45 bux just for a hair cut .. ok ok. Also include washed as well. So is a really good experience sitting in there .. when they start give some massage... which I really think is ticklish =P

The feeling is quite scary when u actually let the whoever who cuts ur hair handle the decision what they gonna give, and my brain is like non stop flashing the word "Bad hair day"
So .. after fin everything .. I put on my glassses .. and ..... .. .. . quite shock , but .. yeah. So I text Linda, who actually walked around while waiting .. and I just test "OH NO !!" XD. The fact is .. not that bad I guess, is short .. and .. I think I tried this style before .. so .. =)

Well .. done a lil shopping, bought a pants. 1s time I actually buy myself some clothing .. hahaha. Okie, admit I din do it all by myself, and Im not the one actually realy go look around.. is just that someone do it for me, look for some and ask me to try on.

So .. that is basically how I spend my day .. =) some comics .. enjoy

1st time Tennis experience

After so many years, I finally get my hand on a tennis racquet, all this while tennis, is something that I actually not very familiar with, cept wathching it over the television set, or even reading some comic bout playing tennis, or even hooked on the com game (which is wat happen now .. )

Thanks alot PeiWen for taking all the trouble come to my house and pick me up early in the morning, and really really sorry that I mixed up the time .. and =P not to mention .. woke up after u called. Step into the tennis court, nothing is new to me, stepped in before last time, just for fun .. but is really my 1st time holding a racquet, and realise there is diff type of tennis racquet that is available. Okie .. u cant blame me for that ok, in badminton the only diff is maybe the grip of the string and thats all, in badminton they do haf another type of racquet, but is not allowed to use in competition and no point buying it as well. So looking at the diff type of tennis racquet .. really new to me. Not to mention bout the racquet, even the there is diff type of tennis ball, do u just call them as tennis ball or they haf a better name ? Oh well, fact is .. today coz is my very 1st time actually going to hit a tennis ball, so is a soft ball .. are they all soft ball ?? lol ..

Start with some basic bout how u hold a racquet .. how u swing it .. and so on .. having hard time to adjust myself from badminton - using wrist strength, to tennis - using whole arm to swing. Well ... I non stop letting the ball goes flying over the entire court ,and having hard time to keep the ball down. Is mainly because, I keep on swing it halfway .. and leaving the racquet points up and wide open, bleeeeeergh ! Not to mention having 3 balls fly outside the fence . ... paiseh !!!!!

After an hour plus of playing ... get to tried how u serve at the right way ... got the strength there I guess .. but =/ the ball landed on my side before bounce over. . so yeah .. failed. and still ... I cant really control where the ball goes .. and again, flying balls over the entire court til the fence there .. and my backhand just cant get to whack any ball yet .. lol

Not bad experience !! Should try more next time .. and haf to remind me to really swing it. Thanks alot for teaching me PeiWen !

ps : and thanks for the breakfast as well =)

Badminton - French Open

Yesterday nite, was the French Open final for all categories. Malaysia double and Single are in the finals and definitely I will be sitting front of Tv and start watching it ..

I really thought is gonna be a good game, looking at the former champion and the veteran team of our Malaysia team .. I remember they play each other few times, nothing is new to them I suppose.

But what actually was - a lousy game play, not from our boys .. but from the former champion China team ! I mean what kinda of match was that ? Admit they do play a lil better but heck ! Calling stop for like endless time everytime ppl actually served the ball ?? Oh come on ! dun start telling me "That is the trick", "That is the strategy " and bla bla and so on .. those ok ! Cant they haf a lil thing call "Sportsmanship" ???

truly ! if u do watch last nite match, even the fans arent happy bout it ! They just booo them instead .. even ref .. Come on ! He do deserve a card warning since earlier when he does that ! If is wasnt those lousy act from the China team, our boys do haf a chance to win. I really thought China is a strong team, but I guess .. no more from now. They play shit ! they do shit stuff just to win ! There no more thing call fair play or even Sportsmanship in them !

Absolutely disgusting ! Tho they won the double .. but ya noe wat .. They dun deserve it as well !!
