melaka food!!

once again we went to melaka to celebrate the end of sem 5. this time there was: me, fiona, yi lyn, shu yin and soo fen. and thus the eating frenzy began. i put on 3 kg just in what, 3days?

the picturesque town of melaka

DAY 1:

lunch at the famous chicken rice shop at the bottom of the bridge. i still think '和记' is nicer.

adjourning to 'donald&lilys' after that for rojak and curry mee

dinner was duck mee and deserts. the bubur chacha was fantastic! best i've ever tasted.

of course, we could never go to melaka without tasting satay celup at least once! ^^

finally, roti john for supper

food in seremban ^^

As it is the period of hospital attachments, i have plenty of guests at my home waiting to try some seremban specialities. so, after cracking my head on where to bring them, these are the few places we've been to:

dry and soupy version of curry pan mee at 妈仔板面in kemayan square

plus they serve one of my favourite drinks - ambra

next was the famous fish head beehoon in Leong Kee, sikamat. i like it better than the one in AST. this is simply yummy and peppery..^^

along with other dishes at Leong Kee

one of my favourite dishes at Hong Kong noodle - spinach mee with 水饺

Kensington ^^

crispy aromatic duck ~ RM18 for 4 people

my favouritest mushroom soup in the whole world. you can even taste chunks of mushroom in it - RM 3.80

the main courses we took

steamboat with juniors ^^

since we were leaving IMU already, our juniors decided to hold us a farewell steamboat party. thanx to all you guys for the meal ya! ^^

the steamboat was held at sunway Yuan restorant. famous for its chicken wings. they actually calculated the time for each batch of chicken wings to arrive - 15 minutes! then they planned the strategy.. oxy would block the way, and the rest would spring into action. ^^

my cute mentee - ray ^^

sweet ^^

the universal symbol

all full and fed

new found 'heng dai's.. hehe

all girls say "cheese"

and everybody say 'hairy dick'!;p

next we adjourned to sunway pyramid to chill at the bistro

the drinks were pretty cool. the fruit punches were nice. i don't really like alcohol, even though the presentation looks nice. the atmosphere was cool too.

after drinks, the four of us went a bit crazy and refused to go home. hence, we went for a late night movie - my first, watching 'jiang shan mei ren'. what a sad show, nice though.

and that marked the end of the day. ^^

moist chocolate cake - best i've ever tasted

chocolate topping - jusco magazine

200gm whipped cream, 40gm butter, 240gm chopped chocolate

heat whip cream till it boils, add chopped chocolate and mix well. add butter and mix well. let is rest one night.

chocolate cake - yi lyn's mom's recipe

A. 2oz cocoa powder (Vanhouten brand), 2oz sugar, 1 cup water

mix together and double boil until sugar dissolves. leave to cool.

B. 6 eggs (egg yolk and egg white separated), 7oz sugar, 8oz self-raising flour, 8oz butter (melted and leave to cool)

beat egg white with half sugar until light. beat egg yolk, half sugar, butter, and 'A' until well mixed. add flour and mix. fold in the egg white. bake (don't fill it up too full)

apply chocolate to middle of cake and as topping.

my brother's chocolatae birthday cake ^^

green pea biscuit (carolyn's recipe)

green pea powder 450g, flour 600g, icing sugar 210g, salt a little bit, soda powder 1 teaspoon, corn oil 380ml.

sieve all, add together, lastly add corn oil and make into dough. roll into 1cm think, use 'acuan' to make it into your shape and bake.

trying to steal my car?!

furtively we crouched beside the car.. i opened the door.. silence.. then suddenly the alarm rang!! frantically we groped under the dashboard with the alarm blaring, checking at all times to see whether the guards would come running to have us arrested for car theft.

course they wouldn't. it was my car after all. the battery of the remote control had died on me, leaving me no choice but to open the door with the key, thus activating my superb alarm and security system which didn't even allow me to start the engine while screaming at me constantly.

for your info, if that ever happens to you, and if you are driving a kelisa, go to the passenger side of the seat and poke your entire head into the hole under the dashboard (you can't see it otherwise). there's a little red button on your left, near the door. really a life-saving button.

a sincere and heart-felt thanks to all my passengers, fiona, shu yin and kelvin, who immediately started to call up everyone they could think of who drives a kelisa. thanx alap, who engaged the help of his brothers and dad. thanx v co, thanx shu yin's friend from sarawak, thanx kar maine. really appreciate all your help and support!=]

王心凌 这就是爱

漂流在爱情海域
你我也曾有过伤心
因为相信让俩颗心贴近了距离
当我靠在你的怀里
所有话题都是多余
眼前的风景都是你给我的美丽
月影遥 天都亮了 星星睡不着
我在你耳边轻轻唱着 你笑了
爱 俩颗星星一片海
牵着的手都明白 再也离不开
爱 轻轻飘进我心海
你是甜蜜的意外 我却逃不开oh~~
当我靠在你的怀里
所有话题都是多余
眼前的风景都是你给我的美丽
月影遥 天都亮了 星星睡不着
我在你耳边轻轻唱着 你笑了
爱 俩颗星星一片海
牵着的手都明白 再也离不开
爱 轻轻飘进我心海
你是甜蜜的意外 我却逃不开oh~~
开始不懂爱 到现在才明白
恋爱中的人都像个小孩
情愿被宠坏 每一天都充满期待
这就是爱
爱 俩颗星星一片海
牵着的手都明白 再也离不开
爱 轻轻飘进我心海
你是甜蜜的意外 我却逃不开oh~~

the secret

it borders on atheist beliefs, but i still find that there are things to learn and apply into our lives.

the secret talks about the Laws of Attraction where everything is made up from energy, and you attract energy to you based on your feelings and thoughts. basically, this is what i got from the 1.5 hr movie:

> focus on what you want, not what you do not want.

> you are the masterpiece of your own mind.

> what you focus on (thoughts, feeling) is what will be attracted to you. you create your own universe as you go along.

> all that we are is the result of what we have thought. be grateful. visualise. the 'feeling' is the secret, not just positive thinking. 'feel' what you want. feel good.

> imagination is the preview of life's coming attraction.

> decide on what you want, believe it is possible for you. visualise having it, feel it, then be grateful for what you already have.

> you can't expect others to enjoy your own company if you don't enjoy your own company. treat yourself the way you want others to treat you. you are the solution to you! love yourself. have a healthy respect for yourself.

> laughter really is the best medicine!

> men becomes what he thinks about. focus on what you want, not what you don't want.

> whether you think you can or you can't, either way you are right – Henry Ford.

Welcome to planet earth. There is nothing you cannot be. Decide on what you want, then focus upon it. For it is through focusing upon it that you will attract it.

Feel good!^^

人的2%不足

每个生命都有2%的不足
因为上天是公平的，他给人这2%不足
让人在自己的人生旅途中填补它。

所以朋友你不用羡慕，妒忌
那些生活比你好，各方面条件比你优越的人，
他们在别的方面并不一定优越于你。

每个人都是不一样的，但每个人都有2%的不足
他们的悲伤你不知道

因此不要让他们看到你的哀伤
用心去填补自己那2%的不足。

the power of thought~

you are what you think you are, are you not?

if you always think that you will fail, most probably you will! coz you have already lost heart from the beginning.

on the contrary, if you think that you can do it, you most probably will too! coz you will be actively thinking of ways to make that a reality.

so, rather than always moaning and groaning about my weaknesses or troubles, why not i take constructive measures against whatever my complains are? if the subject is hard, the subject is hard. so just work harder right? if i always complain that i'm fat etc, then just go exercise right? the solutions to our problems are already there waiting for us to go for it. instead, due to our own laziness, we just sit there and do what we do the best - complain.

i believe that destiny is mine to decide. do you?

为什么...

我只看见别人的好
却看不见自己的好

所看到的，只有自己的不足

outing with jane june and mustaqim ^^

it's been a while since we last hung out with them. jane june? she was my housemate and good pal in intec days. mustaqim? he's the one we always ignore or 'kenakan' since he's so noisy. haha.. anyways, we went to watch alvin and the chipmunks in midvalley. quite a hilarious and entertaining show. i was disturbed halfway through to take the ticket out for mustaqim coz he had to sh** first before coming.

lunch was at sushi king. the food? as nice as every. i'm still crazy over the octopus. this time i ordered something cheaper so that the octopus wouldn't kill my pocket.

mustaq and jane june

mustaqim looks demented.haha..

shame on us. the malay who can hold chopsticks better than me.
