buka puasa with ex-colleagues

last nite, or in fact last evening, i attended a buka puasa session with my ex-colleagues from PwC...........the place that we had the buka puasa session is called tupai tupai (squirrel squirrel).........

the special delicacies of the place is deep fried squirrel deep with hot chilli sauce............hahahahahaha.........gotcha...........no la, basically the place serves traditional malay food, with some western food and more or less like any other buffet that u can find in town......but there is a twist of this place, the building is in the middle of a jungle where it is in the middle of a town.....kindda complicated but the place is very kindda cozy place......

so we did some catch ups and also tell lame jokes to everyone just to keep our mind off work...............later we went off bout 9ish...........all and all, it was a gud buka puasa session..........

see the pix above, yerp.......the stairs........it brings a some sort of kindda dark memories to me.......well, it is ashame for me to tell u the story of what had happened..........ok la, promise u guys won't laugh or smile while reading this........

it was 1992, the month of ramadhan just like now......the me and my parents went for a buka puasa at nipah coffeehouse @ equatorial hotel in KL.......so after some eating of some variety of food that is availabled for buka puasa.......i started to play around with the kids who is bout my age.........so while i was playing with the kids, suddenly, pret pret pret pret........ o'oh....... i accidentally pooped in my pants at the hotel.........

and i went straight to mum, and of course with the smell, she quickly brought me to the washroom and gave me one of a few lectures from her in my life........what did i tell u, i was a spoilt brat when i was small......so it was still very early at nite, mum asked me to chill at the stairs shown above all by myself....and kids came to me and asked me why am i sitting alone on the stairs???? hmmmmmmmmm, i didn't tell them coz if i were to told them, they will go .......eeeeeeeeeeeee, dier poop la.............and the best thing was, the kids that was wondering around, said that they were eating ice cream......and not wanting to left out, i asked one of the kids to call mum, and when mum came, i said i want ice cream..........mum was like......eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee........y la u behaving like this.........hahahahahaha.........sorry mum, i was one spoilt brat..........so i had my ice cream with my stinking pants on the stairs...............

ok back to the future, 16 years into the future to be exact.......today i had a break fast session with the family and also dad's clients......... and when we arrived there, i looked at the stairs and smiled when i saw the stairs........and i told mum, mum, that's "the stairs"........and she laughed.........

basically, the nipah coffeehouse is one of the best buffet in town to break ur fast........it has lots of food that varies to one and another........so we found our table with dad's name on it.......and started to take the food on from the buffet........

firstly, i took the appetizers, a slice of murabak, beef balls and also teh tarik........dun wanna explode by eating to much........then after a while, went for prayers with dad and came back for more food........i took lamb with sate.......then added mixed seafood like bamboo lala, lala and also prawns cooked to perfection and whole lot more..........

later, we crack some jokes and burst out laughing.......all and all it was a good break fast session.............before i left, i gave a good look at the stairs that brings dark memories yet funny to me.........hehehehe

The current mood

Mood for this monday - Try to hook a 1KG dumbbell to your eyelash, and once u manage to open ur eyes, try to hold it for couple of hours........yerp........that's how i feel rite now..........

have a good week ahead peeps.........

officially addicted..........

Ok it is official that the whole family is a chillis addicted....... it is almost every week during this fasting month that we are having chillis for meals...... tonite is not an exception......just came back from yes u guessed it, chillis, for our sahur........

it started just now during the noon, when we were at our kedai runcit (KLCC) for buying my sisters's raya shoes......and out of sudden, i made a joke to mum by saying, u want to eat lada (another word for chillies) or not? i was being sarcastic la coz takkan every week we wanna eat chillies.........and then mum said ok can.......i was like.....hmmmmmmmmm..........hahahahahaha.......

so we decided to go for chillis after our terawih........coz we know that if we want to buka there, we have to go early and we will be blur for like an hour plus just to wait for buka time......... went there bout 945ish and arrived bout 10.........when we arrived, we straight away got a place to sit.........

hmmmmmm.........tonite i've decided to go with something else other than chicken crispers, chicken monterey or mushroom jack fajitas............ we had:

myself - Southwestern marinated lamb + mango juiceme
bro - fish and chips + orange juice
mum - lamb shoulder + guava juice...

all of us decided not to have anything gassy drinks coz that day we watched Oprah and Dr Oz advised that we should cut out on soft drinks............i guess that is true.........we should know how much torture our kidneys when we consume soft drinks............

now, am really really stuffed........ and i think i'm just gonna layback for a while just to make the food that i've eaten to settled down............
have a great weekend peeps...........

looking forward for raya

hmmmmmmmmmm..........i dunno but then nowadays, even though that we are in the fasting month.......i dun feel like looking so forward for the hari raya..........even though that raya i can meet my relatives whom i haven't see for quite some time........yeah i miss that.......but then, the condition or should i say the things that happens around me makes me not looking that forward for raya..........

just look at the shows that is shown on the tv..........mostly it is about people trying to make the other party to look bad and also influence them of supporting just to ensure that they get the benefits........

i dunno, why do they have to fight against each other on this exciting month coz it is gonna be raya..........i mean come on...RAYA..........it's 18 days dy since i've fast........ i wanna have the mood to play mercun.......listen to raya songs in the blardy radio......but now when i turn on the radio, it is either news or story bout those buggers fighting on telling lies or making stories here and there.........i mean i dunno whether the stories that are being told are real or not..........hmmmmmmm, just hope that i won't being caught by this entry...........

come on.........i just wanna feel like a little kid again.......i wanna have the mood to play mercun........looking forward for raya.............looking forward to meet up with my relatives and friends.........eating kuih raya..........ketupat lontong rendang.......i wanna have the mood to be stuffed with raya food........dam dam dum........aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..........i'm freaking stress with these people who disturbs me life.........far out la.............

ok, starting tmrw, i'm so gonna listen to raya songs to bring me the mood for raya..........u peeps wanna join me???

i sooooooooooo miss of receiving this note during my raya days.......muahahahahaha

the unwanted visitor......

it was bout 11ish last nite when i came back from buying sahur for my parents and was at the kitchen........ so, unpack the roti boom that i've bought at the stall near my place.....took the plate and wipe it with the damp cloth........

as i was unwrapping the roti from the plastic, "something" walked pass by behind my back on the cupboard......and when i turned around, nothing was there......hmmmmm.....although it is the fasting month, there shouldn't be be "anything"......so not feeling something is right, i decided to speed up the tempo of putting the food in the microwave becoz it is still warm...and if we put it in the fridge, it won't taste the same when we reheat it back........

after placing the food in the microwave, i felt thirsty and took a glass to grab sky juice from the fridge.......whilst i was taking the glass, that "something" walked again behind my back somewhere on the cupboard behind me with sounds of krak krak krak.......errrrrrrr.......so i was just saying that it was a lizard........

happily walking towards the fridge, and open up the fridge door and somehow i noticed that "something" was staring at me on the cupboard above the fridge......when i looked up it was a big GREY RAT.......and it was a FOOT long..... and it is kindda like the romantic movie where u had an eye contact with someone......yeah, this was like that but only it is not romantic coz soon later i was holding a broom chasing the rat off the cupboard and it went around the dining area and then the rat somehow was running towards me and i was jumping here and there as if i was doing the hill billy dancing.......

after i've stopped the "dancing" to the not so tune...... i went to look for the rat......but unfortunately it disappeared.......today when i told mum bout the incident, she said that the rat luvs to sit under the fridge.......and from now on, when ever i am at the fridge door, i'm always caution by looking at my legs and ensure it is kindda distance from the fridge.......dun wanna get bitten though.........although i was born in the year of the rat (so that sums up my age).......... but i ain't wanna get bitten by a rat..........else i'll be turning into a mutant rat like master splinter from TMNT........hahahahaha..........but i think my cat wouldn't interest a rat coz she prefers to do her own hobby.......SLEEPING..........so much of having a cat as a pet...........sigh..........

cheers peeps.........

this illustrates how trectious it was last nite.......hehehehehe

my lazy mengada cat.........sigh

yet if we are bitten by it, it will haunt us when we are sick........

revenge is so sweet......

so during the weekend, man utd lost to liverpool (spanish gays...coz they have so many spanish gays in there) with the results of 2-1............when it ended, sms and also phone calls were coming in to tease me here and there.....ok, so what........in the movies, heroes will always suffer and they will bounce back and alas they will win at the end of the story..........

after terawih that nite, met my uncle, and he told me, that the score is 1-1, so i had this feeling that the score is gonna be 2-1 but not sure who will win.......when got home, i was suprised to see what i said came thru.......it was 2-1.....but the score was against us...... and i got an sms from my uncle saying that.....ya la, i guess ur rite....it is 2-1 ......doink~~~!!!...........

later got an sms from my brother, saying liverpool liverpool liverpool.........and i replied to him, in a tamil movie, the hero will always suffer at first hand....just like padayappa the movie, he suffers....but as a hero, he bounced back and won the war......so, we the red devils are like that, we like to play cat and mouse game......

today, when i came into the office, me boss was making fun, teasing us and also jokes towards man utd....so nvm, our day will come....once we won it....we'll make sure that he is gonna work under the table.....hahahahahahaha

after some analysis made after the game, i have made some points.....

1. hero will always suffer but will win later....in other words, they might have won the battle but not the war....hahahaha

2. the commentators says that man utd will have to lose 1-2 games to win the title just like last year....hmmmm, harsh but true......

3. the ball is round, so u might win today but not tomorrow.....

4. this is the holy month of ramadhan, so the devils in the red devils are being caught and tied....so that is why we can't perform.....u bugga just wait till they are being released...hahahahaha

5. we will hit em hard......oh revenge is so sweet...... so all and all, dun worry, this war isn't over yet u koppies.......

dun worry we'll bounce back

this will happen to em later in the season.....hahahahaha

aaaaaaachummmmmm

heyya peeps,

it is true what they say, if u want it, go get it.........that's what exactly what i did last nite......yesterday, the whole day me tummy was grumbling and also that i was craving for chicken crispers from chillies.....so got online, and was looking for gangs to go for breaking fast with......

and got hold of sabrina who was also thinking bout what to have later for breaking fast.....so we set that me and sweetie, she and her bf that we are going to chillies....so got back home bout 5ish and as i arrived home, i took a nap coz i'm really sleepy....and i accidentally over slept that i woke up bout 540ish and straight away jumped up, took me towels and hit the shower.......before i left, mum asked me where am i going for breaking my fast, so said that am going to chillies.......she straight away said that she wants to kirim 2 lamb shoulders and also her spectacles she ask to bring it to the optometrists to tighten up the screws.....

arrived at klcc bout 620ish and went straight up to chillies, and to my suprise, it was a FULL HOUSE......and the guy at the counter said, sorry sir, full house, they are here for the buka puasa and the table is only available bout 830......so i was like, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa........can't have my chicken crispers.......hmmmmm, so i put down my name in the list and then called up everyone saying that it was full house and we just break something lite and come back later........so everyone agreed........

so went to the optometrist to tighten up mum's specs and later met megat and sabrina and we later decided to hang out at the food court to break our fast.....so had spring rolls and mineral water for me and sweetie whilst megat and sabrina had bites of sushi and also mineral waters.......did some catch ups there and later went to chillies bout 8.........and to our suprise there was an empty table and we went straight in........without browsing so much at the menu, we knew what we wanna order..... so i had my chicken crispers, sweetie and me shared caesar's salad while sabrina and megat shared triple play.............oh yes.......finally i got what i've craved for.................all and all it was a fun night................and i am really satisfied that i've got what i'm craving for........... and i'm so happyyyyyyyyyy~~!!!!!

cheers peeps

a very mouth watering dish

confronting things that bugs u.......

ok this is gonna be dramatic......

i really hate things that bug me and also that makes my life more challenging than it already has..... it really pisses me off and irritates me here and there...why is it there are god creations in this world that could not let us live happily ever after.....

last nite was a very warm nite.....and i was sitting in front of the tv with my laptop on my lap (errrr duhhhhh....that's y it is called a laptop) and chatting, surfing, blogging, etc...... but then they said that laptops shouldn't really be put on a flat stuff coz the warm air couldn't circulate.....so y is it in the first place called a laptop......it should have been called "a digital magical box that u can do anything with".........sigh.....

ok back to the story, i was doing my stuff in front of the tele, and out of sudden i felt very itchy on my arm and when i looked i saw a mozzie was happily sucking the liquid in my body that is called blood......so as a result i gave a mozzie a suprise...... a suprise that sounded like this.....KPAKK~~!!!......yes i killed the mozzie........and to make things worst, it is not only A mozzie....there were like 9 or 10s flying here and there.....

so i put down my laptop down, and started to play "tepuk amai amai" (clapping games) with the mozzie with these words coming out from an organ on my face between the nose and the chin called the mouth.....Nah amik kau.....mampos kau.....iyahhh.....ish ish.....eeeeeeeee......die u b*tch..... u want to bite me is it.......and what's worse, one of the mozzie was happily and volunteerly serenading me at my ears......but there was only one note and also one sound that was playing it went like this........ ngeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..............and i gave a strong "pat on the shoulder" to the mozzie and it went into my ear..........yikes~~~!!!!!.........had to take it out.........................

after the killing session has done, i gather the bodies and counted how many i've killed....and proudly i would say that i've killed more than 10 mozzies for the nite.....no offence aite mozzies, it is just that 3 years back i was admitted to the hospital coz of u.....so lesson learned that u r no fwen instead a threat......

later at nite, i switched on the air-cond and also the mozzie repellent and slept soundly......oh how beautiful life is......

me during my admission to the hospital due to dengue (3 years back)

as a result, lesson learned......

a day in the office

i dun know is it me or is it the air-cond in the office that it is getting colder by the day..... out of sudden my flu is coming back....sniff sniff sniff..... and also that i'm freezing my arse and that my fingers are numb..... hard to type though.....had to wear my jacket today in the office coz i normally dun wear it...coz where i come from, this is very normal....but some how i think i'm having a running nose....so better for me to keep myself warm.......and out of sudden, my tummy starts to growl and it is only 10 in the morning.......aaaaaaaaaa....... it is making a loud concert without any permit from the authority.......huhuhhu.....plus, i've been letting out "uninvited" gases from my toooot.........hahahaha.......

have a nice day ahead peeps.......

hmmmmmmmm.... what should i have to break my fast later.....

this is in the morning.......all fresh up

later in the evening, am thinking of what to have for breaking my fast........plus, it is freaking cold here........

p/s: i've noticed that my "horns" have grown longer......hmmmmm, how could this be.....all the devils are tied up dy........

the popia experience.....

we all agree that we all hate to wait for the good stuff for a very long time.........nonetheless, when u have to wait for hours to get the things and it is literally just 20-30 meters away..........

ok, so me and sweetie went to times square and also sungai wang yesterday to get some stuff......on the way back which is bout 230ish, sweetie ajak me to go to pasar ramadhan at section 14 coz she recommended the popia basah (wet spring rolls)........and i was like, errr, normally pasar ramadhan opens at 4ish till 7ish.....which is normally true.....we decided to go to section 14 in PJ just to see whether it has started.......

made the trip there and we saw this one long queue bout 20 people.........and i was like, eh this queue is for what eh?.....and sweetie said, that one is for people buying popia basah la.........so sweetie went down first and went into the queue while i went searching for parking spot.........
found a parking spot which is on the other side of the bazaar, and walked my way through the stalls that were selling many kinds of foods and and also drinks.......i was like, this is so a challenge for me walking through these foods and smells so good and irresistable......after a 5 minutes walk, i finally found the popia store.....met sweetie there and swapped place with her where she wanted to see what are there to be offered at the bazaar.........

later sweetie came back and we were talking bout the popia....sweetie said that they are so famous that it opened at 230....... ouch~~~~......sorry sweetie, tot that this is the typical bazaar ramadhan...... we met one of the guys there, he said that the day before he came and it was raining and the stalls wasn't opened yet and he was willing to wait just to get the spring rolls.......

as time passes by, our feets were killing us..... at times we were squatting, at times we were standing on one leg and sometimes were are blur..........ya la.....moving at 0.02km/h per hour.....and we are losing to a snail as a result.....huhuhuhu..... but i dun blame the people, they hv waited for quite some time and they are ordering like an average of 15 spring rolls per head....so just let say that a spring roll is 30 secs to make (making the spring roll, packing and also payment)....so if one person is roughly bout 4.5 mins x 20 people = +-1.5 hours till we get our turn.....fuhhh, what a pain on our feet....

the queue of people waiting for the spring rolls upon our arrival......
our feet is killing us, so to distract the pain, we cam whore.....hehehehe
the queue of people when it is our turn to buy the spring rolls

when we were approaching the tent where the guy was making the spring roll, it was almost 5, and they said that they are not gonna take anymore orders coz it will be finished when it is their turn if they were to queuing up......so kudos to sweetie for encouraging us to go early......so the spring roll is recommended to buy from my point of view.....just have to wait in the queue for quite some time......

the tent that sells the spring rolls
they are so popular, that they had to do like mc-d taking orders from the queue....so canggih man...
