Sentosa

after a stress day in the office of a short Saturday work, me and my colleagues went to Sentosa to chill and relax there. Nothing to said much, it was so FUN.

Kuala Lumpur

It's been ages since i graduated from Sunway and left KL. been missing the food and the environment there. oh well, since i got long weekend because of the Singapore National Day. so i decided to have a Nostalgic-self-trip at KL, stayed at Cititel Mid Valley, rent a car and drive around KL from 7 to 9 Aug. the feeling is like fiiiuuuhhh......... everything gone. i just like the places there.

okay, 1st day, i went to Sunway area for the whole day, where my college located, Sunway University College. when i drove around my college area, i saw the Sunway Hospital is well build already, they added some traffic light around, and i just realized the construction for South Quay have not done yet, which they did it since my last 2 semester (2007) until now. i drove inside the complex to update myself with the place. and i stop at this location and took the picture facing my old-school-condo, where i stayed before. it's quite a nice place to chill-out *i think*. lol......

btw, i just found out that Krispy Kreme Doughnuts already open in Sunway Pyramid. i remember last time i asked my friends from Jakarta to buy it for me, just for the doughnuts. lol........ and guess what???........... i saw a huge fairy's wheel inside the shopping mall. OMG. this is crazy. Located at the B3 near Giant build up high until level 3. lol........

Tian Hou Temple and 1Utama is my 2nd day destination where is always went there last time. i will never miss this temple when i went to KL. this temple bring peace in me, and i just love the place. lol.......... after some prayer, i drove to my brother place at cyberjaya to pass him my camera and some shirt that i bought for him. it's been almost half-a-year i never met my bro since this year Chinese New Year. oh well, after that i went to 1utama for my shopping and dining time. Italiannies is my pointed restaurant for my dinner of the day.

oh ya, i always went to Padini Concept Store because that is one of my favorite brand in KL, with the design is not that bad and i can categories the brand as affordable brand. when i walk around jeans area, i saw they used people name for their jeans product. and guess what??........ ALEX is appointed as one of the Low-Rise-Straight-Jeans for Padini. well, this is not important, just FYI. lol......

Not to forget, after 1utama, before i go back to hotel, i stop at Murni SS2, one of my favorite supper place ever. they don't have proper menu on the table, anything you want, just said it out to the waiter. they will get it for you. lol........ my most favorite appetite is their Hawaiian. my most favorite drinks is Mango Special, and for the complete supper, i ordered Mie Raja. Mie Raja is somehow like fried-dried-wanton mie. but too bad, i forgot to take picture. because am too hungry. lol..........

oh well, my last days i cannot enjoy the full day because i have to go back with the evening bus trip, 4pm at Dorsett Hotel. early morning after wake up, i just walk around mid valley and went to bukit bintang area for relaxing. went to Pavilion, Sungei Wang, and Lot 10. i saw a huge changes with the environment around that area. all the people walk on the street, not at the pedestrian cross. traffic jam all way long. and lots of shopping mall-upgrade-construction going on.

oh well, i just posted some of the picture in my BLOG. so, just have a look there for complete pictures.

The One With "I Hate My Mom" Story

This is a short story about a boy in China, that hates his mom so much because his mom only got one eye.

There is one small family live happily in Shanghai, China. Daddy, Mommy, and the child, Guo Rui. Since He (guo Rui) start school, his friends make fun of him because his mom only have one eye. Because of this, the whole school's students make him so embarrassed. He start to blame his mom every single day, keep blaming blaming and blaming. His mom cried every single day because the kid was not happy, and not enjoy his childhood time.

once upon a time after he graduate from his college, he move to Singapore to work. just to run away from the past. after 4 years, his mom come and visit him in Singapore, because He never give any calls or any update to his mom. His mom so happy because Guo Rui already married and have 2 beautiful daughter. But the outcome, he even hate his mom, because the kids scared of their granny face. At the end, Guo Rui chase his mom back to China.

times flies. After few years, he got a business trip to Shanghai. Few days after his trip, he went back to his house and he found out that his mom was passed away and the house was being sold 1 year ago. His mom left a letter to Guo Rui and she wrote; "Son, i am so happy to see you grow up from small kid to a successful business man with 2 beautiful daughter. I'm sorry that i make you embarrassed in front of your friends in the past. when you still 2 and 1/2 years old, we all in a car accident and take your dad's life away. you lost 1 of your eye and i cannot see you not happy when you grow up because of that. so, i go for surgery to give one of my eye for you my son."

The one with After Shock

Here come another movie that can make me so touched and make me open my eye even bigger for the environment and people around me. After Shock, directed by 52-year-old Feng Xiaogang, a household name known mostly for his popular romantic comedies, is a tear-jerker about a family torn apart by the 1976 Tangshan earthquake and reunited years later in the aftermath of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake.

A True Story based movie created is to recall a 7.8-magnitude earthquake struck the industrial city in north China on July 28, 1976, which was believed to be one of the deadliest natural disasters of the 20th century and is estimated to have killed over 240,000 people. That was also when the decade-long Cultural Revolution started to peter out, shortly before strongman Mao Zedong died and a few months before the Gang of Four were arrested.

Despite what’s been called its touching script and skillful acting, the film has not only moved audiences to tears but also has drawn criticism about its lack of soul searching about what exactly happened 34 years ago.

And again, i cried because of this movie. And this movie reminds me of my mom. for whoever who read this, keep this sentence in your mind. whatever your mom tell you, whether it is nice or hurtful, happy or sad, inside her heart, you're still her child, and She still LOVE you whatever you are, FOREVER.

Here is the trailer of the movie.

Despicable Me

Just came back from the movie at Iluma. what i can say about Despicable Me is COOL, FUNNY, and CUTE. Oh ya, just found out that this is universal studio's production. Even though the graphic is not as great as Pixar Production, but i don't care. it was great and funny movie. I think "Despicable Me" is one of the summer's biggest success stories, along with "Toy Story 3". btw, a person who came across my mine when i saw Gru is Rowan Atkinson in Mr.Bean. Curious? go and watch the movie then. lol.........

Well, some of the synopsis of the movie: In a happy suburban neighborhood surrounded by white picket fences with flowering rose bushes, sits a black house with a dead lawn. Unbeknownst to the neighbors, hidden deep beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by an army of tireless, little yellow minions, we discover Gru (Steve Carell), planning the biggest heist in the history of the world. He is going to steal the moon (Yes, the moon!) in Universals new 3-D CGI feature, Despicable Me.

Gru delights in all things wicked. Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way. Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen: a potential Dad.

One of the worlds greatest super-villains has just met his greatest challenge: three little girls named Margo, Edith and Agnes.

My Rating: ***** (9/10)

so, here's the trailer of Despicable Me.

Paris Hilton Arrested at World Cup

Paris Hilton has reportedly been arrested in South Africa! According to the Times Live the heiress was escorted from the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium for allegedly smoking marijuana on Friday evening.

She was there with a friend to watch the Brazil-Netherlands match, and guess girlfriend thought she was in Holland, and decided to spark one up!

Hilton was reportedly taken by police to the Mount Road Police Station just before 8pm. Provincial Head of Detectives in Port Elizabeth, Mark Magadlela, confirmed that Hilton was at the police station and had been released.

Of course, Paris, who tweets every other minute, has failed to mention this little detail. Her last tweet was two hours ago—she wrote: “It's so beautiful here. I can't wait to go on the Safari this week and see all the amazing animals.”

Earlier she wrote: “Had so much fun at the game today. What a match! I love South Africa!”

Yeah, we’re sure she had a lot of “fun” before the authorities came in to kill her buzz!

UPDATE: A blogger for Eyewitness News (EWN) in South Africa writes on the network's Twitter.com page, "EWN can officially confirm that socialite Paris Hilton has been arrested on a drug related charge and will appear in court later tonight."

UPDATE: TMZ reports that Paris was not smoking pot herself, but was taken into custody after someone in her entourage was suspected of doing so. They say Hilton has not yet been released.

baby Baby Baby

saw this French video in youtube and i think this is quite cool.3 naked girls walking on the street with a mini tape or whatever.

curious........

Ebisboshi Shotengai Restaurant @ Iluma

As always, my starting line is "been while since my last post". lol...... okay, a short story about me and my neighbor. since Iluma open until now, i never been there for shop or eat, where the building is exactly beside my block. only for pass by bcoz got overhead bridge there Plus Aircon. so i won't sweat when i walk to mrt or bus stop. lol..... but yesterday, after long day of work in the office, i went to a Japanese Restaurant named Ebiboshi Shotengai at the 4th floor in the Iluma there.

At first, i saw quite numbers of people queuing-up there and quite alot of people inside having their dinner as well. so, i decided to went there and had my dinner before movie (The Jones Theory). The restaurant have the same concept with Waraku at The Heeren, but, the technology is much much more advance. Yes both is "self-service" system, but Ebisboshi used the real "self-service" technology without going to the booth. What do i mean by that?

They have the technology, which i called "Wireless Bar-code Detector System". This device design as a pen (as shown in the picture beside), whereby you can scan into selected bar-code provided at the item that you wish to order. But it's quite big and thick though. oh well, and after you confirm your item, the device will automatically send your order to the kitchen straight away. in this case, the waiters will not wait for you and ask "you want to order already?" or "any drink first?" but they will come to your table and pass u the confirm item that you send to the kitchen. pretty cool huh..........

And the good thing about this Device, they provide you a voice system whereby you can listen to the item that you order to prevent wrong item or bar-code. And they also have Volume bar-code in case you a bit deaf like me. haha......

well, give it a try. The food is quite nice. but abit pricy i think. but i like the ambiance. keep it up.......
