Raya Holiday

ohh noo.... the long awaited Raya Holiday is gone...

so fast and furious, huh ?? hehee....

nothing much to update about the 5-days holiday... a lot of people choose to travel and go for holiday... as for me, i spent most of the time with loved ones... resting at home... watching HK TVB dramas... and also, reading book !!

yes... you heard it right... i'm currently reading a book - The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown... not bad, huh ???

and, know what... in these 5 days itself, i have watched 3 fantastic movies at various locations - Pavilion and Kepong Jusco - Eagle Eye, The Painted Skin and Mamma Mia... !! Both Eagle Eye and Mamma Mia was up to expectation... but Painted Skin was so so only, cos it's a boring love story, nothing to shout out... i heart Pierce Brosnan in Mamma Mia!!!! one handsome and charming old man !! i'm falling for him... heheee....

that's about it... how do you spent your holidays ???

this portion is for 3 pax...

yee mee, meehoon and eggs... also in the set for 3 persons...

the condiments... the Green Chilli sauce is quite famous...

add ons - Enoki Mushroom... it cost RM8 per plate... it's kinda expensive but we still ordered 2 plates of this... YummY !!!

we also ordered this "Thong Hou veges"... dont know what it's called in English... my Dad likes it for steamboat... hehe...

we actually ordered a plate of thinly sliced pork and a plate of wantan-fishball thingy but didnt take a picture of it.. too busy eating ler... once you're there, dont forget to order the

Movie + Homecooked Dinner

Movie + Homecooked Dinner

06/09/08

early in the morning, i went to pasar at Kepong Baru with my mum... i think i last went there during Chinese New Year this year... :P this time, we bought some vegetables and meat for dinner... we planned it the night before to eat at home... heheee...

then, my parent, my sis and me went for the movie - Money No Enough 2, 4.20pm show at TGV Kepong at Jusco..

overall, this movie was quite good and hilarious... Jack Neo's movies are improving and getting better and better... more meaningful this time... in the reality, every people will have their own difficulties in life especially money-related...a good movie to show motherly love... the ending part was so touching... it really conveyed a very good message to people.... :) too bad, i couldnt understand Hokkien, or else i will laugh loud like others... hahaa....

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

went home immediately to cook dinner... i actually cooked once last week, but forgotten to take any pics.. hahaa... this time, i took some photos... my mum was the main cook, i was the kitchen helper... hahaa... and only in-charged of one dish - Fried Bittergourd with Salted Egg.. :P

preparation...

Mummy frying the fish...

we had 5 dishes + a soup.... Deep Fried Fish, Tofu with Fried Shallot and Roasted Pork.... see the Bittergourd ?? me COOKED it, okay ??!! :P another dish was the Steamed Lady Fingers, no pic of it...

my all time favourite - Peppermint Soup with salted egg.... yummylicious !!

a candid of mummy... :)

a nice dinner for all of us... TWO THUMBS UP !! nothing beats homecooked dinner... :)

Story of Me

Enough of posts about food, enough of posts about places i've travelled, and for now, i'm gonna write a post about me. Yes, ONLY about me and myself !! Hope you guys wont get bored reading the rest of this post.

It's not a happy or interesting story, just gonna tell a silly story of myself when i was young - a teenager. I'm not saying that i'm OLD now, but i actually felt that i am OLD at this age of 25 ! You got to believe it.

Actually, it's not really a story, but it's simply what i've been thinking during my younger age, about LOVE, LIFE and MARRIAGE. The summarised of it :-

#1 What exactly is Love ?? It is the most difficult question for mankind. At this point, I don't really have the answer for it. And i'm such a loser ! After many failed relationships, i'm STILL a LOSER.

#2 LIFE is COMPLICATED, LIFE is full of shits. LIFE sucks, sometimes most of the times !!

#3 MARRIAGE is what ?? a male + a female legally staying under the same roof ??

Know what, i used to think that i wanna get married before or at the age of 25. How silly is that ? I really wished and hoped for it when i was still studying in secondary school. I really thought that 25 is the perfect age for marriage, a fairy-tale marriage, but how wrong am i !! after so many shits things happened to me, i realised it's not up to my control for "when" i wanna get married. And, it's not so easy as i thought. For SURE, i'm NOT gonna make it !! In next life, perhaps.

Sometimes, i will ask myself, what's so wrong with me ? Can somebody tell me ? Things will never end. I just wanted to be cared and loved by someone who is really sincere in doing so. Is it so hard ? GOD knows.

Recently, i've been going through the list of friends on my Friendster and Facebook. To my surprise, so many of my primary and secondary school mates are married, and some even with kid not one but a few ? hahaa... Congrattss to you guys, for successfully entering another phase/stage of life !!

I dont wanna elaborate more. That's about it.

I should have WAKE UP by now !!

p/s: thanks for reading, if you're still reading at this point...
