24/12/10 Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve wasn't something big for me, but just used it for an outing reason. xD

Early morning of this day, Peng Siang and I went to gym for workout. Seriously, I'm weak. haha. I can only last for 1 hour over there. With 90 calories burnt on the treadmill ( around 15 mins ), workout at the machines section for 30 mins and lastly 15 mins of slacking. The feeling of exercise was great. You can feel your whole body burning, metabolism rate became faster, and in return of high lactic acids at the joints of every limbs. Now, I'm still in ache. GG


Late afternoon, Xian and I went to Sunway Pyramid for Lunch, Movies and Dinner. I received two Christmas presents. One from myself, and one from Xian.

The first one, Xiao² Coong and Xiao² Xian. They will be sticken on my car next year. Don't be fool by the size of them in the picture, they are just only half of a 500ml Coke bottle. LOL.


The last, my GG Ignition Exia Mode. First of all, you will notice it's not B*ndai version. Well, because I'm poor, but hand itching, so I decided to give it a try on this manufacturer ( GaoGao ) production. Surprisingly, the quality was decent, and the parts + runners almost the same as the B*ndai! Been working on the head and chest, it came out pretty good.


We had our lunch at Sakae Sushi. And yup, it's not as awful as Sakae in IOI, but it's just way below average. Self-claimed "Genmai Green Tea" cost me RM2.00, with the taste of brown rice, filled in a teabag, put in a plastic cup with water. Oh my, Zanmai, provides ceramic cup, which is more insulated to heat + easy to grip + preserve heat better, and it only cost RM1.00. Sakae uses dry and crispy seaweed, that's the pros. When you chew the seaweed, you can feel its crispiness and easy to rip off. As usual, I will order Kappa Maki (cucumber) to test. Surprisingly, its kappa maki was quite satisfying.
"Well-prepared cucumber + the crispy seaweed = perfect combo"

-Chuka Hotate, is decent.
Like
•Served Cold
•Sauce was nice
•Xian likes it
Dislike
•much harder to chew ( like chewing a cooked beef)
•Sauce was way to salty after few pieces was consumed.
•The side-vege was too little

-Soft Shell Crab Temaki was above average, but with too little sauce.
-Baby Octopus Sushi is like shit.
-The new Unagi mix with Mushroom is pure shit also.
-Unagi with egg rice is pure shit also. The sauce used with unagi is awful. The portion is too little. The egg is decent. The onion is not sweet at all.

Sakae Sushi, I will not visit you again. Byebye~

Movie - Tron
•Seriously Ownage.
•Alot of Programming Code. Pening.
•8/10
*Way too expensive in Sunway, RM21 for one person.
*Never watch 3D in Sunway, the 3D glasses were poor, decrease the clarity and brightness. I can even see it clearer when I'm not wearing one.

Dinner - Wendy's
•Insist not to have fastfood as dinner, but she won. T.T
•Spicy chicken is way too spicy, a lot of pepper on the skins, making us cough like shit.
•Frosty was seeedddaaaaapppp!
•We cant finish our meal because we are too full~
( I believed that she's not that cruel and cold, she has a gentle and caring heart, just the way the react back turns out to be cruel and cold. As to against her parents, same like me. I believe you can do it de..)

Sight-seeing
Decoration inside Sunway Pyramid = Potong Steam.
Decoration outside Sunway Pyramid = Blue-ish yet bit messy.
Decoration inside Sunway Resort = Simple yet elegant yet straight to the point.
Decoration outside Sunway Resort = Lambor parked in front of the entrance while people enjoyed taking photos of it.


Thus, The end of my Christmas Eve. A wish from me to Santa, please deliver a potion that will change her back to herself. And a potion to everyone of us in this world, to possess a heart of a new-born baby, pure and naive.

Wedding Dinner

Today, which is 16Dec2010, marks the new beginning of a newly-married couple. They are from wealthy family, thus having a wedding dinner in a grand ballroom is just ordinary. Let's don't talk about those fancy decos, and richy-richie.

How about we discuss about how you define marriage? Marriage for me, is just a promise for be with her forever. But, a promise might not be willingly, it might be forced to make a promise, and when you are fed up with it, you can just simply break it, just like breaking a glass. Pieces shattered everywhere.

For me, I don't really believe in being together forever, because I hadn't experience once till now. It's like, every time you put alot of effort in it, and in the end, it just popped and vanished. But, I do believe in, appreciate the moment with her, which might be the past, present, or future. I don't care how long will we be together, I just care how much we appreciate each other when there's chance. Sorry to say that, those who believe in eternity, is pure fool or naive, or trying to go against reality. Not that eternity doesn't exist, but it's just a mere amount.

What I saw, is happiness linked with everyone during the process. These happiness might not last long, but it does exist, maybe for the period of time. That's why, I'm wanting to be a wedding photographer, to capture the sweetest moment, and perhaps, be a memory of them to recall that they both are willing to be together in the past.

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

Kids isn't that annoying actually, I do love kids. I'm moved by the naive, the pure element that lies within the kids. But, the kids, portrait their parents. Exactly. My niece was truely adorable, naive, and can laugh for anything. But somehow, she inherits the negative of her parents, being petty, mood swing easily, rude, as portrait in her mom.

She and her mother were somehow being spoilt by my dad. What they want, they must get. They wouldn't consider any external or internal factors, such as financial, family, or so on. I can be like them, but somehow I inherited the kindness of my mom, always try to be understanding. I wanted to spend all my dad's money, I wanted to just ask for money when I finish spending it, but somehow, somewhere within my heart, I heard a voice asking me not to do so.

I'm bit curious, what has turns me to a different character after primary school. What factors do contribute to my changes? For sure, if I didn't take part in buddhist activities, I wouldn't be at this very world. That's the reason, I still stay at there.

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

Somehow, I feel like sharing this, because, I felt quite alone now.

女生应该体谅男人的13件事

by 非主流(Facebook) on Friday, November 26, 2010 at 12:21am

1：不要要求他太多，不要嫌他陪你的时间不够，如果你想将来与他执手偕老，就不要在乎现在的朝朝暮暮。细水长流是的爱情才是最真的。

Don't request, or whine too much. If you wanted to be with him till old, just enjoy the time when being with him.

2：不要嫌他唠叨，因为一个男生对一个女生唠叨，那说明他真得很在乎你，当他忙的时候尽量不去打扰他。

Don't complain that he nagged you, because for a guy, if he does nag you, it means he really cares about you. Try not to disturb him when he's busy.

3：当他在msn上赶你下线的时候，要立即下线，因为他有可能在等着你的头像暗了证明你睡了的时候才下线睡觉。不要让他担心。

When he somehow force you to offline while chatting on MSN, this indicates that he is waiting for you to fall asleep, he only sleep, because he worries.

4：只对他一个男生说晚安（wan an），以为“晚安”的含义是：wo ai ni ai ni(我爱你，爱你)，对其他的男生说“好梦”或者其他的话。如果你喜欢他,就告诉他吧，即使他拒绝，并不丢面子，因为在他的心里，会因为你的真情而非常非常感激你。

Try to create something out of the typical words, for example replacing goodnight with "NaiNai", which is only dedicated to him. If you do like him, just tell him. If he neglect you, it's not an embarrassing matter, because he deeply appreciate you for your true heart.

5：如果他喜欢你，要明确告诉他你的感情，喜欢就是喜欢，不喜欢就是不喜欢。千万不要怕伤害他而犹豫不决地。不要让他脆弱地等待到最后受到抛弃，因为男孩子的心一旦碎了很难很难再好起。

If he likes you, you must told him exactly what are you thinking, what's your feeling, straight to the point. Fear not to hurt him by telling the truth, because if you let a guy ( fragile) to wait till the end and being disposed, his heart will shatter and it's hard to reassemble.

6：男孩子也有自己的脾气，只是因为爱你而压抑，不要总是任性,有时他们的决定也很有道理。

Boys do have their own tempers, but somehow they suppress it due to love. Don't always be a willfulness person, because sometimes they do mind it.

7：男孩子莫名地向你发脾气，那是因为他爱你，把你当成最亲的。最贴心的,最有安全感的人，千万不要和他发脾气，静静地等着,等他消气后后悔地去抱你。

Boys somehow will get angry with you, not because he doesn't love you anymore, it's because he had take you as part of his life. Never argue with him, but just wait quietly, and give him a hug after calming down.

8：他为你准备的东西，即使再难看，再廉价，也要去珍惜。因为那里面融汇着他整晚的思绪。

No matter how ugly or cheap (price) the things he made for you, he took a full night to think of it.

9：相信他许愿给你多么多么美好的生活，要给他鼓励，因为你的鼓励会使他创造出奇迹。

A simple motivating word from you, will bring miracle to him.

10：不要总是和他联系，问他去哪里，告诉他注意安全，你会等着他就可以。

Don't contact him all the time, as in he needed some privacy. Waiting him will just do.

11：不要总说"我爱你"，他会半真半笑着说烦你，但不要不说，因为有时候，他们比女孩子更需要这句。

Don't say " I love you" too often, or not at all, because sometimes, it does means a lot to him.

12：他为你掉眼泪了，那么他是真的非常非常地爱你！珍惜他的每一颗眼泪，不要道歉，不要安慰，握着他的手，默默地为他擦去泪滴。

If he cries for you, appreciate it, as in he loves you a lot. You doesn't need to be sorry, or to comfort him, just hold his hand, or embrace him, while wiping his tears.

13：要信任他，他爱你，就什么都不会骗你！即使真的有欺骗，也是为你们的爱情能够永远不离不弃！

Do believe that when he loves you, he wouldn't lie to you. If he lies, he did for reason

Last but not least, I would like to share a song. A sentimental song from JJ. “她说”. Loves the musics, brings out the feeling. Dunno why, I just love to hear these songs. Not because of the lyrics, but of the singer's voice blended nicely with the music.

Octopus Japanese Restaurant

[Somehow grab this photo from somewhere]

It was an ordinary 03/12/10 night. Xian and I planned to have dinner, but we were indecisive. Suddenly, i recalled Xian said there's a new Japanese Cuisine in Seri Petaling, but she didn't know where it is located. I thought of this eight-legged creature restaurant that I had a glance on it months ago. Therefore, we decided to visit this restaurant.

The interior of this restaurant was well-decorated. The lighting was suitable for reading the menu and suits the eating mood. When we flipped and browse through the menu, we found out that the style and typo of the menu were much similiar to Sushi Zanmai's. I reckoned the chef or the owner of this restaurant had worked in Zanmai before. Well, when having Japanese Cuisine, the first thing to look at is the price, is the price worthwhile. Second, quality, is the quality deserve the price. The price was overwhelming and seems to be on par with Ishin located in Old Klang Road( which I never went before). I am not so impressed or satisfied with the food quality. Since I never been to Ishin, I will compare the food here with Zanmai. As for price, Zanmai won.

1.Chuka Chimni
Chuka Chinmi as a usual appetizer. The Chinmi taste awfully, as in it's like not that appetizing. It's not served cold like Zanmai (which I enjoyed), the juice seems a little bit salty and the scallop like not fresh at all. Zanmai won.


2. Unagi Bento Set?
Miso soup is just miso soup, man-made or machine-made I don't know. The tempura, is quite nice, almost on par with Zanmai. ♥ the Salad sauce! I have been searching for a name for this sauce. It's sour, looks colourless, taste like vinegar..... Now's the main part... UNAGI! OMG~ The unagi here tastes supremely! I love the sauce so much, as in it blended well into the unagi, and make it taste i-chi-ban! Sedap~~~ (maybe because of me not having unagi for ages, but TBH, the unagi in zanmai seems degrade.)
Bento Set : Zanmai won ( Much more worth)
Unagi : Octopus~



3. Last but not least, THE SOFT SHELL CRAB.
Guess what's my first impression on it? It's bigger than Zanmai's, but no sauce served. How does it taste like? Pasar Malam grade. It's definitely crispy, the lemon juice well blended, juicy crab meat, but too bad no sauce to dip. Price is RM16.90. And that's the downside. I personally doubt this kind of food quality deserve this price.

Green tea costs RM2 per cup, and the cup is made from plastic. OMG. Not worth. Boo!

Overall, the food was not bad, yet not good also. If you were rich, and have no where to spend, you can come, as you pay for the environment, and the good service. But for food, just go Zanmai, or anywhere else.

THE END.

A Real-Life Story.

19 years ago, an infant was being brought to the world by a pair of hands. The first time he do was to open his eyes, and starts crying. He was well-fed, of nutrients and food.

As time passed, he grew up. In the toddler stage, he learns to crawl, he learns to stand, he learns to walk, and he learns to talk. His parents, accompanied him throughout the whole process. You can imagine how merry was the scene.

At the age of 6, he was studying in a kindagarden called "Tadika Mestika". Remember being taught by Cikgu Azura, and surrounded by tons of admirers, that was a happy time too. He celebrated his birthday the first time in the class, with everyone wearing party cone hat. Someone took a photo of him, and through the picture, you can judge by his smile, how happy was him. His parent treated him as a prince, would do everything for him. He remembered he played with his father, sat on his waist, slept with him on the cold floor, back by back or even accompanied him throughout the night when he was scared. He even get praised when he did the right thing.

Things started to change, when the boy reaches the age of 7. His father was not as friendly as the past, started to scold him useless almost time he did the wrong thing. The time his father spent with him was getting lesser and lesser. The chance to have a short conversation was getting dimmer and dimmer. The father the boy knew, is not anyhow the person now. Fierce, talk with loud tone, hot-tempered, smoking heavily were what he possess when everyday flies away. The father he knew, had changed to a silhouette, that stood right in front of the door, every night.

The boy, who turns 13 in 2001, stepped into secondary school. He become somehow quiet and remained silent in the house. His mouth, was sealed. He doesn't want to talk to their parents, because the image of his parent, was not like this at all. He doesn't have any memorable moments with his father, except for wanting for money. Money stood between us. The only thing we can talk about, was money. Yet, the thing that almost destroyed his family, was money also. He remembered, his father argued with his mother badly. He as a children of both, suffered from the arguement. Hiding alone upstairs, shivering. He was helpless, he couldn't accept the fact that his parents were changed.

Until now, he has tried numerous times to accept the fact, but still unacceptable. And he is typing this story and puts a full-stop in this story.



( I got this inspiration throughout the time I observe my niece and my dad. My dad will always talk softly and gently to a baby, always played with her. He will sayang the baby until the sky falls down also dunno. My niece who was treated like a princess last time, now who is just only 5 years old, has been scolded numerous times "useless". This recalls my past. I somehow feel like fall down from heaven to hell in a blink of eye. He was like expecting a pampered kids will be thoughtful. For instance, a baby who was being protected by his parent, not to touch boiling water till the age of 5. He never know what boiling water is, and how boiling water feels like. But, his parent who always pamper him, expecting him to know what's boiling water and should not touch it. Not that I hate my dad(a bit), but just to express my pain. I do love him, and I also know he do love me very much, but the way he use, I hardly can accept. And I couldn't use my way to love him. )

THE END

19/11/10

Dear bloggy,
Sorry to abandon you for a long period. I'm back with 3 posts to make you happy~


19/11/10 is our special day. We have been together for one year, quite a simple life, yet memorable. At first, I plan to go Ishin for dinner, but scared of queuing up for seats, so I decided to bring her to Hokkaido Ichiba in Gardens after HP7.

Hokkaido Ichiba is under Sushi Zanmai's company, and the food seems similiar, but the differences lie in the price and the quality. We order soft shell crab as usual, cha soba for me, unagi bla bla bla for her and ice cream for desserts. It's kinda disappointing when Chuka Chinmi is not on the menu. It's a kind of seafood but it's not available in a restaurant that is under the same company as Zanmai? Depressed.



Soft shell crab. To every Japanese cuisine, the first thing i will try out is soft shell crab. I expected it to be super delicious, but then it turns out quite disappointing. The crabs are a bit better in quality and bigger in size compared to Sushi Zanmai, but the price differs a lot. It's not that worth to order it. Xian said it was nice and I can't doubt it due to its price, perhaps.



Next on is my cha soba. It was beyond my expectation. The price differs a lot, but it's actually the L size of cha soba in Zanmai (IMO). He added wasabi into the sauce, and it tastes superb. The taste that I never had in my life, so delicious~ Oh ya, I forget something. He also added raw quail's egg into it, which makes it so special...... Sedap...



Ah, the new dish. It's unagi bla bla bla. It was served with a stone bowl with unagi and rice in it. What's so special about this dish is the waiter actually mix all the things together, and prepared it LIVE in front of you. This actually gave the customer the feel of being respect, and feel superior. The rice captures the sauce of the unagi and the sweet scene of the unagi, which makes a great combination.




Last but not least, the renowned Hokkaido Ice Cream. It just taste amazingly, no other words to describe. We ordered Hokkaido's Melon And Green Tea flavour. Their signature Hokkaido's Melon are mix with sweet with a little bit of sour. Green Tea are just Green Tea. Sedappppppp~ But do notice that two scoop of ice cream, is not bigger than your handphone.



I gave her a piggy coin bank for a certain purpose, that is to write all the bad things that she hates and throw it inside. But then.. NVM. In return, she gave me a set of leather equipments, belt, wallet, card holder. It's not about I'm not appreciating it, but it does look about old for me.... So, I'm officially an adult. XD

That's all for the day. ~.~
