30th and 31st Jan 2010
30th Jan 2010
We had a surprised party for WeiHoong and, distance-celebration for KokMun and farewell of Suet Yee at Chillis, MidValley. WeiHoong saw us and... smile in a way which I can't describe. Before WeiHoong arrived, we ordered food already and the food is ready as soon as he arrived. Wonder why didn't order together. LoL. I ordered something called hot honey crispy chicken. I have forgotten the name. (-.-") Anyway, the pics of the dish is on the menu itself, once you flipped to the page for "chicken". It was spicy and make your tongue hot!! Phew....
The cake... Chocolate Banana. Chocolate Indulgence a NO.. It seemed to be too common already and Brian agreed. In the end, we chose Chocolate Banana. Here comes another problem... the wordings on the cake. We managed to fit everything. Thanks to the staff in Secret Recipe!! =D
Next, to the cinema. Watched Legion and all of us were late for 5 minutes. Who can tell me how does the movie start off?!!
There is a character which looks a lot like Hann Jiunn and all of us agreed and laugh in the cinema itself!! The storyline of the movie is below normal... Angels-possesed human vs Angel + human . The message in the movie though is this: Have faith in what you believed in, and everything will turn good?
After cinema...left MV and farewell....Pics and vids are with WaiShan and SuetYee and posted@Facebook...
~Thanks to Brian for being my driver for the day~
31th Jan 2010
Today, marked the 1st anniversary of the 2009 CNY house hopping. Time flies.. Will there be another one this year?
Wangsa Walk Mall
Wangsa Walk Mall, the mall that started business about 5 months back. Not much to shop there though. The shop I visit the most is none other than Popular Bookstore >.< Sad isn't it? The interior is full of slopes and staircases, since the mall is built on a slope.
There are around 4 restaurants/ cafe there, namely TGI Fridays, Secret Recipe, Little Wok Kitchen..... Some shops selling
- clothes, including Rip Curl,
- watches,
- shoes-XES Studio, MYS Collection
- books and stationery - Popular
- Sports equipment
- healthcare products - GNC
- mobile phones, computer equipment, broadband services....
- music instruments - Yamaha
- pets, I think
- daily needs - Cold Storage
- hair salon - Silver Cut, Miko
- eyewear - Focus Point, Milano..
- Celebrity Fitness
- Slimming Sanctuary
- Laundry services
- Bowling - Wangsa Bowl
- Karaoke - SuperStar Karaoke and Song Box
- Cinema - TGV, coming soon...
Although it is not much to shop, but I think it is quite a complete mall. However, there is a bad publicity of it not long after it started business. For the news, click here.
911 Staged by US itself? Whistle blower policy for PKA
Malaysia's former prime minister has done it again!! He claims that 911 is staged as an excuse to invade the Middle East. Wow! Indeed, there are many perspective on how you see things.
Why don't we have a thought on why is the government so keen in cutting the subsidies (sugar, fuel) and introduce taxes( Real property gain tax and GST). Is it that Malaysia reserve is depleting soon? Or it is just that they aimed to lower down the the fiscal deficit?
On the other occasion, the transport minister has announced that whistle-blower policy is set out to be used in the controversial Port Klang Authority(PKA) incident. It will soon implemented to the other port authorities. This is a good move by the ministry.
However, this policy should also be implemented to the other companies as well to help early detection of any fraud in companies . It can help to minimize the loss of investors of the company.
The people have to have the courage to become a whistle blower as well. Some may have the mentality that, "I am getting my pay for now. If I report, I may lose my job. Why should I report it?"

Buffet Lunch at The Living Room, Westin
Dimsum
Pasta in carbonara sauce, tomato is available as well. The carbonara sauce is very nice.
Some dimsum and some fried food
Lok-lok? Yong tau foo is available as well...
Chicken soup
Mushroom soup I think... Doesn't suit me
Indian and chinese food plus some rojak
Ice Cream! But not Haagen- Dazs or Baskin Robbins.
Hmm.. Aren't sure what is the cooking style. A little like teppanyaki.
Waffle
Breadstick, papaya, honeydew and marshmallows...
Cappuccino
The Living Room
There are many choices of food in this buffet. The food shown above are roughly 65% of all food served. Due to the size of my stomach, thats the limit of food I manage to put into my stomach. The environment is quite peaceful and quiet.
Marks given: 8/10
Food and Sugar
How do you define good food?
(A) Food that is nice, tasty, with meat and which may cause you to have diabetes, high blood pressure and other diseases after consuming them for many years,
OR
(B) Food that is dull, tasteless, lots of green, which allow you to live a healthier life?
Anyway, speaking of diabetes, our government is now concerned about it. One of the ways to reduce diabetes is reducing sugar consumption, thus the subsidies are cancelled off. List of items that will be more expensive: Sugar (-.-") , teh tarik, coffee, bread, cakes, iced lemon tea, Coca-cola and so on... Well, it is still a good move.
Many of us would think that sugar cause diabetes. Of course!! However, we should take note of carbohydrate as well since carbohydrate will be broken down into glucose, which is a type of sugar also. Does that mean that the government is gonna raise the price of rice, which is a huge supplier of carbohydrate? I don't think so...
New Year, New Hope, New Resolutions...
Happy new year everyone! Quite a special new year eve this year by spending it with friends. First time. Thanks to YeeTheng for inviting us to her house.
So, resolution for 2010:
Graduate by the end of the year? This can be quite saddening. Leaving
Other than that, no more I think..... Unless trying not to be single? LoL.. Happy new year and enjoy 2010!!
2 years to go to the end of the world...
