To Ipoh and Back ...

Good Day everybody


I wonder if anyone still drop by anymore, but that doesn't really matter.


It has been a handful of days now since I last updated. Went back to Ipoh on 22nd January for my Uncle's house warming. The drive there was crazy, people were flying pass me at 150km/h and above. My little Myvi could only do 130km/h max, any faster it will probably lose its set o'wheels, or I will die. I had passengers with me, my little bro, little sis, girlfriend, and mom's cookies, hence I chose not to die.

Made it back to Jelapang, Ipoh at approximately 4:35pm and hell it was hot!?! The moment I stepped out of my car it burns. Nothing interesting happened after that, we went in and rested. We made a new friend, Toto - the new member of the Leong family of which I encountered during my previous visit. It's a dog, a pariah one - but with amazingly smooth and soft fur, even more amazing is it does not stink like other dogs does. It doesn't like people with shades on, oops Phakkai - note to self - remove shades when attempting to pet Toto.

House warming makan time was supposed to be at 7:00pm, but I tell you people from villages are SUPER early. They arrived way before party time, and they sit down like they've never sat before, drank as if it was the last drop of water on earth, ate like the world will come to an end the next minute ... sheesh, and I thought I was one of them most kia-su people ever roamed the earth. If Denise Chin ever read this, she's going to make one hell of a remark on my statement muahahah!!!

The caterers forgotten to bring along tables to set-up the food, why ain't I surprise??? We also had luk-luk stall set-up by my uncle who owns the business (those stalls with stuffs on sticks and you jab them in da hot wartah!!!), so nice of him to contribute so many sticks of luk-luk for the event. It was seriously food haven that night, but with these kampungnites, they don't go by the stick, they go by the bunch goddamnit!

There were no hot chicks arriving, I haz a sad :(

Anyways, people were happy, food was nice, beer is right, and there were plenty of red wine to go around.
Village people are really efficient, they came, they saw, they grabbed, they ate, they left, it was like ~Kung-Fu fightin', they did it as fast as lightin'! They were kampung chinamen, from kampung china town~ ...

The next morning, my cousins, girlfriend, and I went to the nearby market for breakfast. Nothing fancy but the company of my crazy uncle,aunt, and cousins sure gives me the warm fuzzy feeling, and a hell lotta laughs!! There were dogs, cats, chickens all over the place - I'm sure typical city people will stare in disbelief.

After breakfast I went back for a lazy afternoon nap - and then headed back to KL around 1:30pm. Made it back home by 4:30pm. That's about all I feel like taking down for now, so there - good bye.

Midvalley, of all places ...

Dear self,

Yesterday I was dragged to MidValley for CNY shopping by dear wifegirlfriend. Bought hamspers and whatnot from Eu Yan Sang for her family and mine. Took usher about a whole hour to settle on which ones to buy.

We then went around the mall looking at odd stalls set-up in conjunction with the nearing CNY festivals. Spent on the famous Petaling Street Air Mata Kucing ... dayum just because they set it up in MV Megamall, they charge RM2 for 4 oz. of sugar + a whole cup of ice. Bought RM4 worth of "Dang Dang Candy" (the ones chinaman uncle will whack with a chisel and hammer at Petaling Street).

There were chicks everywhere, like ... miniskirts here, there, everywhere!!!

Bought a pair of polo-tees for my girlfriend, a good deal I would say ... only RM56 ...
Tried on some pants, found out I look too gay with it, didn't get it.
Tried on a jacket, found out it was of lousy quality (the zip gets stuck) ... didn't get that as well.
Went looking for a gift for girlfriend's colleague ... didn't find anything suitable either.

Decided to catch a movie impromptu, bought tickets for "Faster" starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. For the first time I skipped the queue using my GSC Card. A nice change of feeling I would say.

Went to Italiannies @ The Gardens Mall for dinner, Girlfriend's treat for my coming birthday. Food was okay, service was great, place was excellent.

That's all folks, the rest are non of your concern.

Good Morning to everybodymyself

Surprisingly the route home yesterday wasn't jammed up, most probably because some of them Chinese people gone for an earlier CNY holiday. Dinner yesterday was okay, but the vegetables seriously tasted bad, with some kind of a foul stench, or maybe it's just me.
I ended up not doing much before hitting the sack ... re-watched Rush Hour 3 with my girlfren and she fell asleep. As usual, I poke around my iPhone (hoping to discover something new) before I dozed off.

As for today, I went over to WATATIME at Midvalley to get my Swiss Military Watch adjusted so it would be a better fit, unfortunately for people like me with Gorilla hands they can't do much to alter the length of the strap, removing too much makes it not wearable and removing not enough will make it loose. In the end they removed enough for my hand to fit in but it is still kind of loose, but who cares, I has a Swiss Military Watch by Chrono.

In other news, ShumBF sms-ed me about a raid in a hotel we stayed at during our trip to Ipoh about a month ago. Reminder to self: Go for slightly more expensive hotels, it's better than getting your face published for just "being there". For people who are interested to know which hotel, you can contact me.

Actually - I am very much still alive

Dear Self, and loyal Readers
(who the heck reads this sh*t anyways?),

      It has been awhile, say about 3 - 4 years since I last posted anything here. Yes, working life since I was nineteen has taken its toll on my time, my life, and everything else that came after. Now I am old as sh*t, yet to complete my studies, and still working. How cool is that? Anyways, it is nevertheless a good attempt to revive  this personal track log of my syok sendiri adventures.
