huhu.............post christmas present!!



Guess what, I receive another christmas present from my cousin brother today!! This time the present is external dual layer slim dvd burner and some more this item is not produce by some unknown manufacturer and in fact this item is a branded external dvd burner called AOpen. I have yet to test its capability due to some technical error (not the burner give me problem but the power cord!!!!!). The strange thing is I suspect this manufacturer do not provide any power cord for this product and I am very surprise when I search every inch inside the box and still I could not find the power cord. I already send the inquiry email back to the manufacturer and hope they can clarified my doubt and if they really do not provide the power cord I will go down to Jalan Pasar someday to buy the suitable power cord to power up the dvd burner. Thnak god I do not go to buy external dvd writer during the PC fair :-)

Trash or treasure??




All the above picture is the thing I find during a spring cleaning in one of my relative house. Many people scold me for bringing all this trash back to my house, but in my eye all these thing is treasure. Now in these days those thing can hardly found in the market and to seen one is also very difficult. The sony walkman is the 3rd generation of walkman manufactured in Japan and the walkman is in perfect woking condition, you just pop in the battery the walkman work just fine. The Motorola brick phone is also in working condition but we cannot use this kind of phone now because first the battery is NiCad battery means that one must discharge or deplete all the battery power before the battery can be recharge again. Second the charger for NiCad battery is already extinct in the market and third the sim card size is bigger than the sim card size in todays cell phone.

Both of the products above marked the advance of technology because without all those thing above exist first we will never have newer and smaller size of walkman or cell phone.

Movie


As you all can see the above picture is the the movie I had just watched recently. I love war movie especially war during the ancient time. Maybe I am a chinese I love the chinese style of war by fighting the war with mediocre warfare such as hand to hand and fist to fist using ancient weapon such as spear, bow and sword. I do not like watching war movie that is modern warfare using state of the art weapon such as gun and missile. If anyone that want to watch this movie must go to the cinema to watch this movie. Cinema has the best surround sound system that can make you feel you are in the middle of the war and the cinema I recommend you to go to watch this movie is Cathay cinema located at Cinneleisure, The Curve. The screen at Cathay cinema is bigger than TGV and GSC and also the surround sound system is far more better than GSC and TGV. The downside is the ticket price at Cathay cinema is far more higher than other 2 cinema and Cathay do not provide student discount price for student.

Delicacy?? You be the judge


That is a really big piece of shark fin and for chinese out there this mean that this kind of shark fin can never be tasted for the poor. This big piece of shark fin is usually priceless and mainly people will exhibit for the pride in their shop. I admit I am a big fan of shark fin soup but after seeing that big piece of shark fin makes me think about this, how long do a shark need to grown until to have the kind if big size shark fin? Try to think in other way, do you like your body part to be slaughtered and then get eaten or just exhibit somewhere?

The answer is of course no and from now on I will try to reduce the eating the part of this poor creature. If the eating of shark fin is to continue soon our next generation can only admire the beauty of this giant sea creature through picture

Delicacy from Bangkok

Yummy egg tart from Bangkok

The picture you see above is one of the delicacy from Thailand, Bangkok. The egg tart look like a normal Portuguese egg tart and yes it is, the egg tart above is really Portuguese egg tart but with big difference in term of taste and texture.

Can you believe that after hour of transporting from Bangkok to Malaysia the egg tart is still warm in the inside and after reheating in the microwave machine the taste and texture of the egg tart will be the same as the egg tart is just come out from the oven. The quality of this egg tart is very high when compare to the Portuguese egg tart sold in Malaysia and you can never taste the smoothness and the sweetness of the Bangkok egg tart in Malaysia Portuguese egg tart!! The sad thing I can only have a bite of the Bangkok Portuguese egg tart when my relative is touring there and so I seldom can taste it. I love food from Thailand because it has many varieties and also the food there is very tasty!!

Things I like to do





I like to swim when I free and I often swim at my cousin club house. You can see from the picture above. I love to swim there because it is not crowded and also the club provide many facilities to use. The gym room is just beside the pool and once I finish my exercise in the gym room I will straight away dip myself in the cooling water of swimming pool.

I also like to eat and that pot of soup is actually shabu shabu. Shabu shabu means steambot in japanese and that shop is just located at 1 Utama new wing near the rain forest. The price is quite high and so I do not recommend you all to makan there if you all do not have deep pocket.

I like to act stupid also. Just like the picture you see above .

The good old days of prom night

Students of U6SC2

My friends

One day when I rummage through my personal photo album I manage to find all those sweet memories lies in my photo album. I get to see my first experience going oversea to Bangkok, Thailand with all those tasty and unique delicacies of Thailand and also the warm hospitality showed by all those Thai people. Coming up right next to the Bangkok picture is the picture of my good old form 6 days and coming right up is the picture above our own form 6 prom night, the night of showing off your mature look and also the night for the ladies to show off their pretty figure. All people attend must be in formal wear and sure some ladies night gown is splendid to watch.

Just miss those good old days with prom night held but now I can hardly attend this kind of formal function because my university do not have course night or prom night like we did during form 6.

Makan at Melaka


ABC

猪肉粉

These few days lazy to update blog so I decided to update some makan thing from my trip to Melaka today. Our lunch is eaten at a shop located in Jonker Street and the shop is famous for its ABC. The ABC there looks like the one we can eat from 记得吃 but the price is far more cheaper from 记得吃 and also the ABC is very special. I say the ABC only looks like ABC from 记得吃 but the taste is very very different. The ABC use gula Melaka as their sweetener and thus the taste is not just sweet but got some taste of garlic inside that sweetener. The shop is also famous for its laksa and other noodle but that day when I get there all the laksa already sold out so the lady there recommend me to eat pork meat noodle 猪肉粉. To be honest the noodle there is very very delicious plus the ambiance there is very very great!! The shop is inside an antique shop and besides that the shop inside also play all those Chinese oldies songs make us feel that we already back to the old Melaka.

Place that we eat satay celup

Delicious satay celup

During the night we plan to have seafood dinner at Portuguese settlement but after much argument we decided to find a spot to taste the famous satay celup but we do not know which stall have the best satay celup so we just follow a road sign that point us to a satay celup shop. At first we feel that the satay celup is not tasty because there is no patron there but since the time is quite late so we decide to eat there anyway. After some time passes patron start to flood the shop and in no time the shop is full house and by the way the shop had been visited by 阿鸿 from 阿鸿上菜. There are many selection of satay just like our chinese lok lok to be dip inside the satay curry and the 5 of us manage to finish 110 sticks or satay, damm full that day. On the way back we decided to go visit the night safari of Melaka Zoo but turn out that night safari only will open for public during weekend and also public holiday.

Melaka trip 1

Me and my friend at Dataran Pahlawan

During the last few days me and my friend embark on an day trip to Melaka. Although Melaka seems like a very dull and boring place, but for your information although I been to Melaka a few times before but I never been to the places like fort A Famosa, St. paul hill etc. I only seen this places and knew this places on books but I never stepped foot on all this places before. Amazingly not only just me, few of my friend also have the same experience like me.

We first step foot on Dataran Pahlawan, nothing special there just a big field and a big open air stage just like Lake Garden located at KL. We stop there to take a leak and after that we go further into the heart of Melaka. The second stop is the famous red building and fort A Famosa. Nothing new there but near the red building lies a new excavation site , new remains of the wall of A Famosa had been discovered.

A lot of beca surrounding the fort

New excavation site

Me on St. Paul hill

We went on up to the St. Paul hill take some picture then loiter around there for sometime before coming down. We also went into a new building being build on the famous field that Tunku first announced the independence of Malaya. Just my 2 cent I few that there should not be any building just to preserved the originality of that place because that place play a big role in the road of independence.

Coca-cola bottle from Thai

I bought this bottle of Coca-Cola from Thailand for only RM 1.00 and that is 10 Baht. You still can find a lot of carbonated drinks in Thailand still being filled in glass bottle rather than plastic bootle. I do not know why Thailand have many glass bottle packaging than Malaysia and although from common sense we know that the cost to produce a glass bottle is far more higher than the cost to produce a plastic bottle. The benefits in glass packaging is it is recyclable and also because glass can withstand higher pressure than plastic bottle, all those carbonated drinks can be pressurized to a higher pressure than plastic bottle making the carbonated drinks inside it more tasty.

Fanta Japan in aluminum can

In Malaysia all the 1.5 Litre Coca-Cola bottle is plastic bottle but in Bangkok the glass bottle for 1.5 Litre also exist besides the plastic bottle for the 1.5 Litre Coca-Cola. Besides Coca-Cola I also like to drink Fanta, I think this brand exist during the 80s' but suddenly this brand vanish from Malaysia market but this brand still selling in Japan and Thailand. Someone told me that Fanta will only exist in the 3rd world country because of its high level of colouring use and also the super high sweetness. If this is truth why this kind of drink still selling in develop country in Japan?
