..:: My Jingle Little Diary ::..

 
Mr Don is thinking about …

a) Vacation in China?
b) Vacation in Bangkok?
c) Getting a new SLR digital camera?
d) None of the above?

Quite a popular Tim Sum in Bidor. But I find it to be just average. Not to mentioned the most expensive Wantan noodle I had there as well.


My favorite drink of all time - Barley boiled with beancurd skin (腐竹). Those Gordon Bleu I had don't even come close to this! This drink is just too delicious. I drank this on New Year Eve in Ipoh. Yeah, didn't even had the time to go party or countdown this year. This is what happen when you and your girlfriend is both crazy about earning tons of money.


The building on the left is where my girlfriend used to work. That's her old 9-5 job, and I still remember she used to tell me that it's important for her to rush home after work, had dinner, and then go for a quick short nap. After that, she will be stalking me online throughout the whole night. Those were the good old day. Now the only one stalking me is Mr Don! At 3am, Mister Don just wake up and is now accompany me in the SOHO.

If you are wondering ... the top photos was taken when we were traveling in China. I was not exactly sleeping (but actually pretend to be sleeping). The photo below, was Mr Don hugging "koala" while sleeping. I don't think Mr Don is pretending, though ...

The last photo was taken when we decided to go KTV one weekend. That's Aunty Eddy ... singing Leon Lai's songs.

Next posting will be about ...

During the previous Raya holiday, me and Ah Su drove off to Muar to buy some otak-otak. The small town (also PG's hometown) is famous for otak-otak, claim to be made from mackerel fish paste. Somehow I don't really believe it's made from mackerel ... afterall it's not easy to catch a mackerel these day. When I was eating the otak-otak that day in Muar, my mind could only imagine the otak-otak was made from some commercial fresh water fish such as catfish. Apart from otak-otak, we also had some pork satay at that street. We didn't eat much as we need to rush back to Malacca for dinner. Yeah, nice dinner awaiting us in Malacca. Back in Malacca, we had steamed cod fish, suckling pig, deep fried calamari, etc. In short, expensive dinner but I was a little to full to fully enjoy it.

The traffic Muar is fine but coming back to KL was quite a nightmare. The traffic was extremely heavy even when it was still second day of Raya. It was a back to back drive, and at times I was only driving at about not more than 80kmph. Then next day, some business associate treated us lunch at some chinese restaurant in Jaya 33. Su think the lunch this time is better than the one we had in Oriental the last time. But anyhow, I'm quite bored with these kind of chinese lunch and food. In fact, I told her that I was not keen to join them for lunch, but alas, I still need to socialise and do some biz networking. These day, I been label by Su as an anti-social guy. I think it's because I mix too much with Mr Don! Mr Don is not really a friendly dog. He don't mix with the neighbor's cats and dogs. Mr Don only mix with pretty girls (human) and sometimes with me (afterall, I'm the one who always bring him out for joyride in the city). 

 

Okay, I will need to go back to work. Not exactly work, but more to compiling my holiday/business itinerary. I'm going off for a deep sea fishing this weekend, and next weekend, I will be off to ...

1) Going for afternoon dimsum and dinner at Sunday Chiu Chow King (三岛潮皇粤菜酒楼).
2) Going for my tangyuen desert.

It had been ages since I last blog anything. I think I had been working a lot since 1-2 months back. It's now mid of September, and I think I had been busy since end of July. In fact, I don't even remember the last time I had my black canyon coffee. I really hate it when work keep coming in, and there's no opportunity for me to rest. But I can't really complain much since the reward is tremendous. It's like the documentary The Deadliest Catch. When it's crab season, you just need to go out and catch as many as possible. Unlike Deadliest Catch, this work is not risky and you don't have to go out to the deep sea.

If you are wondering what has work to do with Mr Don? Well, everyone is busy working like a dog but the dog is busy having fun in the house. Mr Don sleep, play and eat all the time. Such a lucky little fella.

Okay, I hope the crab season will end soon. After this crab season, I will be going off to China again. China remind me of walking, walking and walking!

I just need a quiet beach vacation like Lanting or Pemanggil Island!!!!!!!

If you been watching Prison Break, you will realise all those guys had a similar hairstyle, and I realise it's sort of a trend recently that almost everyone I know or don't really know decided to change their hairstyle to a prison break hairstyle. One fine extremely hot day, I think I had enough of all this messy hairstyle, and I decided to ask the hair stylist to give me a crew cut! The hair stylist ask me they have number from 1 to 10. Well, it take alot of courage to change it (I dare you to do the same, if you think it's easy), and after a short consideration, I told the stylist that I want number 2. Okay, I didn't want to be the number 1 guy (number 2 is okay for me).

As I'm the only customer at the shop, the hair stylist been telling me alot about the tough life nowaday. He think it's not easy to earn a living nowaday especially when the petrol price is so expensive. Okay, it's not easy to earn a living nowaday, especially if you are only earning less than 2k per month. But still, I think I do have and know many people who earn less than that, and yet life still goes on for them. Maybe no family or wife, but still happy jolly life. But seriously, if you are earning only 2k per month, I think it's barely enough if you need to pay for house rental, car installment, petrol, food and entertainment. Maybe that's why alot of hongkies have 2 jobs, one full time, and one part time, such as driving cab. Sucky, right?

 

Living life nowaday is like Mr Don. Always hungry for better treats and newer toys. Not just the economy is sucky nowaday. The local politic scene is also sucky! There's news or maybe rumour that DSAI might get arrested by the police for some sodomy case again. If he is really guilty last time, he should not be release in the first place. But if he is been release, the public perception is he is been frame, and every smart tom dick and harry won't use the same trick twice. Remind me of what silly Taufik once said, it doesn't matter whether a plot is old as long as it work. Not in this case, I believe. I think the citizen is sick of something, and that's why there's a tsunami in the recent political landscape.

Like this afternoon, I was in KL, and there's so many riot police. I believe there's a riot going on somewhere (but didn't see any). The stupid police close so many roads, and in the end causing inconvenience to everyone. Imagine, I had to take one whole big round to go back to the place I'm going because all shortcut road had been closed. At one point, when I was stopping my car at the side of the road, one angry traffic police ask me to go off. I have to admit I been a little crook for taking my own sweet time because I know he won't give me a summon. You know why? Because he dare not give a summon to the car in front which has heavy modification, and the driver daring as ever, just leave the car there, while he is somewhere else. At one point, the traffic police is so pissed, till he show me his summon book on the air and showing me his hand (while mumbling something on his mouth). Well, I guess he is piss with something, especially when I think he is really affected by the recent fuel hike, and he can't protest because he is the law enforcer. So I decided to give him some face, and drove one big round again. By the time, I reach back there again, it's about to rain, and suddenly you see all the riot police and almost all the police rushing off (because it did rain heavily after that).

Why can't our local law enforcer be like those in Hong Kong or Singapore? What happen to professionalism? Geee ... maybe that's why we need to have the IPMC and if my government can't give me that, I might consider kicking them off their job!

Look like I'm one of the many disgruntle citizen who happen to blog ...

I decided to write something this morning as I realize I had not been blogging for a long long time. Even one of my online banking had been temporary deactivated (until I start using the account again). Then it occur to me, maybe if I didn't blog for a long time, maybe blogger might even deactivate me (or my reader will).

 
Friends decided to look for gold (by the river) in Semenyih one early Sunday morning. I wish I had took some photos of my previous trip to Paka. It was a good fishing trip. I broke my rod but caught many fish. Maybe will blog about that next time.


Mr Don, cute as ever, but not as loyal as last time. Last time when I was in Penang, whenever I work downstair or working in front of the TV, he will be sitting or sleeping nearby. Nowaday, he is not even close at sight. While I blog this, I think he is sleeping somewhere upstair (in some aircond room). Hmm, he didn't realise I'm the one who sponsor all his favorite chickie strip and greenies.

While in Penang recently, I did a home video project.
