Last month I went to Tropicana City Mall. My first visit there.



While I was walking around with Christine and her family, something catchy catch my attention. FREE STUFF !!



Win a 42" LCD TV ?! What you need to do is just fill your personal details and spin some BOX.



I was so confident that I can get something out of this contest. If I win it, I will give the LCD TV to my mom as the Happy Mothers Day gift. ^_^

Ready?!


GO !!

Turn up, not so good.

Manage to get one "0" and a free towel only.


Maybe it just not my day. = (

Forgot to mention that this event is organized by Hyunday-Sime Darby. Thanks for the towel !!

Few weeks back, Eric was back to Malaysia for a short holiday. We went out for couple of drinks at Equine Park. He is now managing an IT company in China. Talking about it, we used to setup a company together before but end up closed down as things doesn't really go well.

We have a good time talking about those good old times. He also shared with me about the current trend of software business in China. Good knowledge sharing.

Ok, back to the topic. He bought me a Pi Xiu (or someone called it Pi Yao) necklace for me. Pi Xui is a Chinese mythical hybrid creature which considered to be a very powerful protector to practitioners of Feng Shui.



This Pi Xiu has the head of a dragon but with the body of lions with little wings and a tail. In the Chinese history, the Pi Xiu is a loyal guardian that is frequently seen guarding the tombs of Emperors.



Information from WIKI,

The myth of Pi Xiu tells that the creature violated a law of heaven, so the Jade Emperor punished it by restricting the pixiu's diet to gold, and prevented the creature from defecating by sealing its anus. Thus, pixiu can only absorb gold, but cannot expel it. This is the origin of Pi Xiu's status as a symbol of the acquisition and preservation of wealth.

Therefore traditionally to the Chinese, Pi Xiu has always been regarded as helpful for those who are going through a bad year according to Chinese zodiac.

I really need this if it is true as I'm quite bad luck lately.

p/s: The photo is not so clear as it was taken using my Nokia 5800 under insufficient light source.

Last weekend, Christine went back to hometown and I'm not following her as I need to settle some stuff. Since she not in, I can sleep till late morning as I no need to go out for breakfast. Hehe.

So this is what I normally do when Christine is not around,


Wake up Late..

Surf Net and Update Blog



Watch TV, even that there is nothing to watch..



Eat my junk food again... Wee!!



Hibernating, nothing do to.. So lazy to go out



End up, sleep again. zzzZZZ


This is what I normally do, boring right? But I enjoyed it, resting peace at home. Haha..

Not so long after I joined my current company, we went for a paint ball session at Rimba Harmonis. From our survey on some forum, we found that Rimba Harmonis offered the best packages.

It is located in Gombak , Kuala Lumpur. About 4km away from University Islam Antarabangsa, Gombak or 2km from Balai Polis Gombak.

This is me. I felt so small. Nervous!! Haha


Reach at the venue. Plenty of space to park your car. So don't worry about car park.



This going to be our war zone!!



The person in charge, Mohd Hazli Hisham giving us briefing. Nice and friendly guy.



Our air gun, or "Marker", terms they use in Paintball.



Prison Break !! Run for your life!!



The war started. Everyone is so excited shooting at everyone else.



WE RUN !!



WE SHOOT !!



WE HIDE !!

Today I'm going to share with you all with one of my collection.
It is a Chinese Chess Set, made from elephant tusks. (I don't know whether it is true or not.)



Chinese chess is one of the most popular games in the world, played by millions upon billions of people.



I bought this chess from China few years back for a quite reasonable price so I doubt it was made from elephant tusks.



This particular chess set is tailored to the theme of the bloodiest and famous period in Chinese history known as the The Three Kingdoms period. The chess pieces are designed like characters from the "Three Kingdoms".



Each of the characters has been given great detail.



However both side of the chess unit are duplicate. Too bad.





Now the chess unit still under my bed. Got no place to display it. = (
Hope to get a new display cabinet to put it.

p/s: I need your help to click on my sponsor advertisement so that I got money to buy new cabinet. Haha. = )

Not so long ago, KY had blog about Eight Ways To Get Noticed In Photos.
His post make me think of 1 person. (My brother in-law)

He certainly know how to get noticed in photos. ^_^

Yesterday evening around 6.15pm, I was waiting for my monorail train to come at Raja Chulan station. There were more than 100 people on the platform. Crazy. This was my first Monorail experience during peak hour.

Let's face it, our monorail aren’t great. It only has 2 decks and the demands were so high. Why can’t they make the monorail longer?

Well, back to the story, after waiting for like around 15 minutes, the Monorail train finally arrived. But with 120% occupied. But we all still need to go in which make it up to 200% occupied (No, I'm not making that up).

It was so packed that I can’t even move my hand to take out my phone to take any photo to share it here. Imagine what will happen if something go wrong with the train. What will happen to all the people inside?!

When we reach the Bukit Bintang station, the "Gang Bang" session started. More people coming in even that there is no more space. The person in charge at the platform keep yelling "Masuk !! Dalam Lagi !" (meaning, Go in, inside again).

Everyone is touching everyone. Your ass touches my legs, your breast touch my back, my hand lay on your shoulder, your hair sweep on my face, your hand on other people ass, you pick your nose and touch the auntie shoulder and so on. Imagine that.

I felt really lucky that I don’t have to go through this kind of experience everyday but I’m feeling bad for those office ladies which was so obvious that some guys are taking advantage on them either on purpose or accidentally. There is no different compare to Gang Bang.

After a long day of work, we don’t expect everyone to smell good. With the train fully over occupied, imagine what the air quality in the train is. When I get down from the train, I was all wet and smell like nasi lemak, curry chicken, roti canai , etc. I’m sure got people complain about my "oyster" smell which I took for my lunch. = . =”

All those politicians really should stop playing politics and do something for the people who voted for them. Always remember you are nothing without us. You would not have Toyota Camry without our income tax. You would not have big house without corruption from us. In return, please make it happen.

We criticize with good will. I understand that Monorail is an improvement itself already as it's faster than walking or taking the bus. But now we want more improvement.

Where is the billion that should be use in improving the public transport? How come we don’t see any improvement? When we talk more than we should, we are in deep shit. ISA come look for us.

May be one day we should invite all the politicians to join our Gang Bang session in Monorail.

When I was organizing my photo in my laptop, I found these photos.
Decided to post it with minimal writing. Lazy.

It was my business trip to Singapore 3 years back.

Aaron : Where to eat today ?
Bird : Hmm.. How about that restaurant ?
Aaron : Which one ?
Bird : That restaurant.
Aaron : Which one is that restaurant? What's the name of that restaurant?
Bird : That restaurant lor.
Aaron : That? Which one is that? Grrr...

Yeah, the name of the restaurant is called THAT Restaurant. Unique huh. = P
It is located in Bandar Puteri Puchong, near the Puteri Mart.

It is famous of it's specialty, the fried squid with salted egg. We can see most of the customers in the restaurant ordering this dishes as well.




The squids are very tender in texture and nicely mixed with the taste of salty egg. Yummy!




We also ordered 2 bowls soup of the day. They have 2 different soups that day.
One of them is vege soup with fish and another one is papaya stewed with fish.

Both of the soups looks delightful and delicious. (with lovely aroma)



The captain also recommend us to take the Pork of the Day.




No need to said anything. See the photo already made me mouthwatering...




This is another famous dishes, Steam Village Chicken. I like the gravy a lot.


The chicken used here are slightly smaller in size and less fat due to it is "Kampung" breed. And of course taste better.

Specialty Homemade bean curd. I can't review this as I don't eat bean curd. = )




Lastly, as a healthy family, we ordered one vegetable. Hehe




Look so green...very fresh.




Here is the MAP of THAT restaurant.



Remember, it is THAT Restaurant. THAT. ^_^
