I'm supposed to blog about the dinner I had with my family today. Unfortunately, I don't have part of the photos with me, so I decided to blog it later.
Eeeyerr...... why so random one?
Because... there's something that I can't keep to myself, something that I must blog it today!!
So...??? What IS IT actually????
Err...
*ahem~ clear throat*
~Baby nephew SMILED BRIGHTLY today!!!! More than 2 times!!!!~
hahahahahaha~~~~~ okay to those who say "ah chew~!!" or boo at me the moment you read this, FYI, my baby nephew is just a less than 2 month old baby who rarely smile okay! And! For such a young baby to smile more than twice within 15 minutes, it is something that RARELY happens okay!!
Hahahahahahaha~~~~
How did it happened??
Well I don't really know how, it just so happened that I was talking to the baby and he just randomly smiled!
Well, something like that:
I was talking to the baby and said:" wey~~~ why don't sleep ah har~~~~" (it was 10pm+, yea! it just happened!), then the baby SMILED widely and BLUSHED!
YEA! I'm not joking!! The baby actually showed a "don't-lar-I'm-shy" look to us (yee sou, yee sou's sis & me)!! We laughed so hard and the baby showed it again when I talk to him for the second time!
*high already*
It was such a waste that we did not have a camera with us that time. So after that, we moved the baby to the baby's bed. So I passed yee sou her phone to try and see if the baby will smile again. I don't know what nonsense I said and the baby smiled again!!! YAY! This time yee sou managed to capture 2 baby smiling photos!!
Hahahaha~~~ I know I'm super vain now~ super perasan~
Good job baby!! and good job to me too!! hahaha~~ v(^o^)v
(although it so happened that I was crapping and the baby randomly smiled~ =P)

Yellow Cab Pizza
Finally, uni for 2nd sem 2009 has started. Ouch... no more assignment free and exam free grace period. Well, for this semester, I do not have classes on Wednesdays and Thursdays but that comes with the price of having one WHOLE day classes for Tuesdays and Fridays. What to do? All the lectures are set in a way that I will spend my whole day at uni, which I really don't like.
Anyway, yesterday (Wednesday) I went out to meet my SAM college friends. It was more than a year since 4 of us gathered together. We spent quality time together to chat, okay, more to gossip at the end *laugh*.
Today, I had Yellow Cab Pizza for lunch with family. This is the first time trying out Yellow Cab Pizza!
(caution: Great Pizza)
- wah~ hard sell wey~
Four Seasons
- gourmet sampler: NY Classic, #4 Cheese, Anchovy Lovers, Roasted Garlic & Shrimp
Hmm~ my favourite of the day is the NY Classic! I like the chicken ham and the cheese combination and it is not too salty.
For#4 Cheese, it is full with cheese but it is abit salty. However, it is a must try for cheese lovers! ^^
the 2nd favourite pizza goes to Roaster Garlic & Shrimp pizza~
The ultimate salty pizza goes to Anchovy Lovers.
Sis's prefers Anchovy pizza though.
Hmm~ Yellow Cab Pizza is quite tasty and quite different from the normal pizza (Pizza Hut, Dominos) that I used to eat. However, the price is more expensive than Pizza Hut and Dominos. But still, I like this pizza... I want to try it again! XD

Belly Good whereabouts
Where is Belly Good?
It is situated right opposite of Sunway Pyramid at the shoplots area. It is not facing the main road. Hmm... the restaurant is at the inner part of the shoplots area, opposite of the Yuen's Steamboat restaurant. Yuen steamboat restaurant is the steamboat restaurant who offers free chicken wings to the customers. To me, the chicken wings are quite tasty and it is the main attraction of the restaurant.
Still don't get what I'm talking about?
Nevermind, I stole the map from Belly Good! =D

日本語の試験～ B1
July 18, 2009 @ Sri Ayutthaya
Yes! Sri Ayutthaya revisited and No! I don't like Tom Yam~~~~~~~~
Sis laaaaa~ She insisted on going to Sri Ayutthaya because she wants to improve her digestion system. She also said that I'm being selfish for not bringing my aunts and mum to try this Thai delicacy. So jerrrrrrrr off we went to have Thai lunch. Sawadika er! >.<
It was then only I realise that the full view of the menu looks like that...
The restaurant...
Tom yam kung
- tom yam prawn
~ actually this picture is tom yam phark (vege), but actually it looks the same.
Pla meuk phad prik keang (small)
- fried squids with thai chilli paste
~ the squid ok-ok only. It taste okay mainly due to the chilli paste. The chilli paste is not that spicy but you will slowly feel the hotness gradually.
Yaw wun-sen
- kerabu glass noodles
~ this. is. SOURRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!! I was like "WHAT THE-" once i tried it. So so so so so sour la! Well one thing is I never tried kerabu before, so I was not mentally prepared that it was such a sour dish. Even my aunt who likes to eat kerabut feels the same.
The same vege! and! The saviour of the day! Well seriously this vege taste really nice...
Luk kai sau yang horr bai buai loy (small)
- thai roast spring chicken with crispy yam
~ Chef's recommendation. Yeah! It taste goooddd~~~ The photo might cause the food does not look appealing but it looks really nice when we eat it. The chicken taste somehow like a mixture of curry and yellow ginger chicken... Ahh... shouldn't have ordered small size... the portion is too small for 5 persons lunch...
Kha num kung
- prawn crackers
~ normal prawn crackers la. But I like the sauce. It taste like 2/3 of sweetness and 1/3 of sourness. hahaha~
Tau hu thod mea sai
- deep fried bean curd mea sai style
~ This fried bean curd is nice. Nice as in it is just nicely cooked. But! I HATE the whatever topping whatever mea sai style. YUCK! It was sour and.... ewww... like got weird taste in it... luckily I was not greedy and tried only a small bite of it.
Earlier on, I had my first Japanese test this morning. Again, I started my revision at 10pm+ till 4am in the morning. Bad habit right? I know but as long as I had fun and enjoyed the revision! =D
E-laine (the mean girl) kept on shoo-ing me off to study. hmph~!
Well the main reason is I was too lazy to even open up the book and read. But she was nice enough to "accompany" me study (accompany as in being bullied by me thru msn... *laugh*)
So, test time.
I was the first among the second batch of students for oral test. The first batch did their oral test last week. At first I thought the oral test will start after I finished the paper test because the paper test started first. But right after the paper test started for like... 2 minutes? I was called to go for my oral test!
FYI, the duration of the paper was 1 hour.
The oral test was somehow like this: (I can't remember exactly)
Sensei: H, me: J
p/s: Ancora Imparo (I am still learning). So the translation below might not be 100% accurate.
H: Ohayo gozaimasu. =D
Good morning.
J: Ohayo gozaimasu. =)
Good morning.
H: Ogenki desuka.
How are you? - well actually something like "are you healthy?" those kinda question.
J: Hai, genki desu.
I'm fine.
H: Oshigoto wa nan desuka.
What is your occupation?
J: Watashiwa gakkusei desu.
I'm a student.
H: Anatawa maiasa nanji ni okimasuka.
What time do you wake up everyday?
J: Watashiwa maiasa hiru 12-ji ni okimasu. *laugh*
I wake up at 12pm everyday. XD
H: (Eyes wide opened and laughed)
J: (Hurriedly add on and say) Holiday desu. Holiday desu.
That's because I'm on holiday~ (That is not proper Jap though... XD)
H: (Point towards my left hand) Sorewa nan desuka.
What is that?
J: Korewa tokei desu.
This is a watch.
H: Sono tokeiwa doko de kaimashitaka.
Where did you buy this watch?
J: (expected this question) Kono tokeiwa wa tokeiya de kaimasu--- shita.
I buy---bought this watch from a watch shop.
~~~ let me explain this. I forgot that I have to answer in past tense, luckily the teacher hinted me by giving me a "haaaarrr?" look and I managed to change my answer immediately.... such a nice teacher~~~~~
H: Isshoni kohi o nomimasenka.
Let's drink coffee together? (direct translation)
J: (instant reply with eyes wide opened) Sumimasen, chotto.
No, thank you.
I don't like coffee. XD
That was how my oral test was ended. It took about 5 minutes and I went back to the class for the paper test. I spent about 25 minutes or less to finish the paper. After the teacher finish all the 2nd batch oral test students, she came into the class and distribute some crossword games for us to play. I managed to finish them before the test ends. (hehe~ just wanna show off here, obviously) But I got some mistakes for the crosswords though. Those were all silly mistakes.
Tada!! My first jap test result!!
buahaha~
97/100~ full marks for oral! XD
my first jap certificate.
nice hor my sensei's name? =D
This is a nice closing curtain for my first jap class, B1 - 1294 (level B1, class number 1294). I only learnt hiragana in B1.
2 weeks later, which is on 1 August 2009, I will start B2 class where I will learn katakana! I hope the same sensei will teach me... *fingers crossed*

Belly Good Harry Potter!
July 17, 2009 @ Sunway area
Today big bro work from home. So around 11.30am, he woke me up (hee~) and off we went for lunch.
We ordered 2 lunch sets, which are BG1 and BG2.
For each lunch set, we have a cup of mushroom soup and an iced lemon tea.
BG1: Baby Back Ribs with Spicy Brown Sauce
- Baby Back Ribs grilled and served with (our) special Spicy Brown Sauce must eat with hands!
~ That was bro's dish but we sorta shared it so that we can try both sets together. This baby back ribs is the best dish of the day. Baby mah. Aiyoh I feel like I ate Babe. XD
By the way, the sauce taste really nice! I kept on stealing the sauce from bro when I was eating the baby back ribs. *hee*
BG2: Original Mixed Platter
- Grilled Pork Ribs and Belly served together bathed in our House Special Rib/Belly sauce
~ This special sauce taste slightly similiar to the roasted type of BBQ sauce. It taste quite okay but I prefer the sauce in BG1 above. For the meat, the ranking goes from baby back ribs to pork ribs and belly at the last place. But bro said belly taste better than the pork ribs. Oh well, he said I don't know how to appreciate good food. He said belly is more expensive than the pork ribs. Fine. =.=
This was actually how the plate looks like since we shared the lunch sets. ^^
Due to the exam results, I realised that I totally forgotten to blog about Harry Potter movie. How can?!
I went to watch Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince on Thursday night. Well the picture below explains all anyway.
So hows the movie?
Erm... ok lo~
The standard answer I give to whoever who asked me. Well frankly, I lowered my expectation alot eversince I watched the 3rd movie. Books are definitely and forever better. But I can't help it and keep on hoping that somehow the movie will impress me, which... it fails to do so, till now. Bro and sis think that the movie was nice. I think I'm just bias and think its alright. Hmm, let me quote E-laine's comment --- "Harry Potter was not what I expected, but it was alright". Something like that. *laugh*
************** spoiler warning***************
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
1. Emma Watson is really gorgeous!
2. Ron Weasley (Rupert) is really hilarious + cute! I like his lovestruck expression. *laugh*
3. Harry is becoming more and more not handsome... *brb! busy dodging Daniel's fans' attack*
4. I like Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy)! haha~
5. Dumbydore... haih except the last part, other parts are similiar to the book's dumbledore. He is becoming weaker and useless like the one in the book.
7. The part Harry and Dumbledore went to search for the Horcrux is close to my imagination! *excited*
8. Ginny can't act la. This Ginny does not any signs of "active, energetic, bright and cheerful" Ginny in the book!
9. Why Harry met Dumbledore at the station? And why Harry looks like a pervert at the station? =.="""
~ Although they want to show that Harry is growing up and start to have affectionate to girls but... not like THAT right~~~
10. The part the monsters attack Harry and Dumbledore was like what I expected! hahaha~ and I managed to cover my eyes before the scene scared the audiences (except for me!) *laugh*

On the brink of doom
Results out.
This is the first time I'm sooo anxious about my result. I always tell others that I'm not those who will fuss over results as it is no longer something we can change. But this time around, it matters. Money matters.
As my CGPA for last sem was 3.13, I have to at least maintain 4 Distinctions in order to secure both loan and scholarship (requirement is GPA 3.0). Err my scholarship covers just a small part of my tuition fees, that explains why I'm a loan student.
Alright, so what's my result?
Sem 1, 2009:
AFW2401 - Commercial banking and finance ~~ 77 D
AFW2491 - Company reporting ~~ 77 D
AFW2851 - Accounting information system and financial modelling ~~ 72 D
ECW1102 - Introductory Macroeconomics ~~ 73 D
GPA: 3.08
WAM: 75.53
Well~~~ at one glance, I achieved my target of getting 4D and secured my loan. Also, both 2401 and 2851 paper exceeded my expectation. 2401 (finance paper) is because I scored my first C last year, so it sank my confidence for finance paper deep deep down. 2851 (AIS paper) is basically I have been complaining about this subject since the start of the sem. The AIS theory was totally boring and does not make sense to me. Thank goodness I can say good bye to them. Although Excel was interesting but nah..... I just don't like this subject.
Now, why I'm still not satisfied?
Because... its 2491 (accounting paper). I scored quite high for my internal marks (for quizzes, assignments). I thought I can score HD for it. Yes, I mind it, alot. I did not get HD for last sem and YES, I know I should not take it for granted. But~ last sem I didn't expect at all so that was different case.
Yea~ this post is becoming more "emo" because I seriously wanna spill all my dissatisfaction over here. This is not to bug those who read this but more to remind myself how the "dissatisfaction cum 不甘心 (pronounce as "bat gam sam" in cantonese)" feeling is. One thing, I do not feel bad about it. I know pretty well how much effort I spent for exam. No regrets, just purely feel defeated unwillingly.
Some say I'm optimistic. Some say I'm a worrier. I choose the latter now.
Judging the fact that my GPA is on downward sloping movement, I half mentally prepared yet still try to defend to maintain above 3.0 score.
This is not just about loan and scholarship. This is a matter of principle.
So yea! *blow all those emo dust away*
Sem 2, 2009, come what may!

Sri Ayutthaya
Sri Ayutthaya @ USJ 11
Today, 2nd bro work from home. So 3 of us (including sis) went out for lunch. Upon reaching the place, 2nd bro said he feel as if he went to some peaceful place because the restaurant area is so quiet! It is situated at quiet residential area, which is a big contrast compared to Taipan which is always conquered by cars and cars AND CARS!!
I like the drawings of this menu. but NOT the logo. Somehow it is too....... Thai? XD
Super thin + long fork & spoon.
Keang keaw waan kai
- Green curry chicken (medium)
~ taste not bad lor. It is not spicy unless you accidentally eat the chilli. (poor bro? sis? got it, saved me from trying it or I will be cursing the dish right now! XD)
Soup - Tom yam kai/ phark
- Tom yam chicken/ vegetables
~ the soup looks the same so I just post the vege soup here. Taste? Quite spicy and sour but the proportion of sour is higher. It is nice for those who like Tom Yam. Sis and bro quite okay with it but nah~~~ no Tom Yam for me. (Now you wonder why I eat at Thai restaurant? Err... something new to try? XD)
Khana phad pls kem
- fried kailan vegetables with salted fish
~ Well~ eat out with sis means "no nonsense (unhealthy food or food that can cause her to change shape) food please", so nope! this vege was free from salted fish! Anyway, the vege was fresh and nicely cooked. Ahh~ How I wish I can have this on weekdays too because my aunt will only cook on weekends...
Fried rice
- I don't know that sis ordered the rice. So... call it as "Pineapple boat fried rice"? =D cute leh!! *wink wink*
~ But hey... it taste quite nice leh~ the fried rice is not too dry and the pineapple made the rice more "juicy/watery". The best part is, it cooled down the spicy taste we got from those Tom Yamsss!
Thod man pla
- deep fried fish cake
~ It is quite similiar to "otak-otak" (maybe because due to the spices and herbs used?) and the inner part is quite watery (not that deep fried). It taste quite nice especially when it is dipped with the sauce. I personally think the sauce is lemongrass sauce. It taste somehow like that.
Sis said need to capture the flower pic. Don't want to waste the chef's effort is it? XD
Err..... some nice chinese style tofu.
I like this kinda sauce. Like those "ying yeung" noodles type of sauce. Another antitode to Tom Yam.
Before I end this post, bro told me to highlight this:
~ We saw "siu keong" a.k.a. cockcroach on the table! ~
*laugh*
The cockcroach crawled on the table and bro got a shocked out of it.
But nope, no one got diarrhea, so far~
Today, 2nd bro work from home. So 3 of us (including sis) went out for lunch. Upon reaching the place, 2nd bro said he feel as if he went to some peaceful place because the restaurant area is so quiet! It is situated at quiet residential area, which is a big contrast compared to Taipan which is always conquered by cars and cars AND CARS!!
I like the drawings of this menu. but NOT the logo. Somehow it is too....... Thai? XD
Super thin + long fork & spoon.
Keang keaw waan kai
- Green curry chicken (medium)
~ taste not bad lor. It is not spicy unless you accidentally eat the chilli. (poor bro? sis? got it, saved me from trying it or I will be cursing the dish right now! XD)
Soup - Tom yam kai/ phark
- Tom yam chicken/ vegetables
~ the soup looks the same so I just post the vege soup here. Taste? Quite spicy and sour but the proportion of sour is higher. It is nice for those who like Tom Yam. Sis and bro quite okay with it but nah~~~ no Tom Yam for me. (Now you wonder why I eat at Thai restaurant? Err... something new to try? XD)
Khana phad pls kem
- fried kailan vegetables with salted fish
~ Well~ eat out with sis means "no nonsense (unhealthy food or food that can cause her to change shape) food please", so nope! this vege was free from salted fish! Anyway, the vege was fresh and nicely cooked. Ahh~ How I wish I can have this on weekdays too because my aunt will only cook on weekends...
Fried rice
- I don't know that sis ordered the rice. So... call it as "Pineapple boat fried rice"? =D cute leh!! *wink wink*
~ But hey... it taste quite nice leh~ the fried rice is not too dry and the pineapple made the rice more "juicy/watery". The best part is, it cooled down the spicy taste we got from those Tom Yamsss!
Thod man pla
- deep fried fish cake
~ It is quite similiar to "otak-otak" (maybe because due to the spices and herbs used?) and the inner part is quite watery (not that deep fried). It taste quite nice especially when it is dipped with the sauce. I personally think the sauce is lemongrass sauce. It taste somehow like that.

Shoot the Popeyes
Mega Sale is here! Wee~~~ Shopping spree~~~
Went to Sunway Pyramid with PY. After a few hours of window shopping, both of us got a pair of sandals. Mine is white while PY got the black one. "Couple" sandals eh? NO WAY MAN! XD
And........!
Today is my first time trying out ARCHERY!! hahaha~~~ (ya so slow right, but better than not trying at all!)
I wanted to try archery since 3 years back and thanks to PY, I finally got the chance to try this game!
The what? Bow is it? XD
PY's on the left, mine on the right.
It was then only I know that the bow is different for right and left handed person. (wooo~~)
Target no.11 is my target but actually one of the arrows from target no.10 was my arrow....
hahaha~~~ My first shot went to target no. 10!!! Stupid right!!
A closer view of my score... NOT BAD la right~~~~~~
RM24 for 2 person with 24 arrows, plus 3 free arrows per person. Means... 15 arrows per person (ouch, I just exposed how low I scored...... XD)
But!! I want to try it again! This game is sort of like a substitution to M16... Arghh I miss M16...
After that, we went to Popeyes for dinner. We were curious about this new fast food restaurant opened in Pyramid (previously it was Delifrance).
Popeyes from Louisiana! Where's Olive? (Anyway, I don't like Olive, she's so dumb!)
The shrimp set
- The shrimp is fresh but the skin is not crispy enough, which is the small imperfection here. Anyway, the shrimp is not bad for a fast food restaurant.
The chicken set
- Now this is a disappointment. The chicken...? Normal chicken taste lo. For an almost RM10 price, I would rather spend it on KFC's chicken, even McD's ayam goreng McD taste better than this chicken. Really. Well maybe I'm too used to KFC's chicken but seriously, this chicken does not worth that price.
For the set, they serve it with mashed potato, coleslaw and biscuit. The mashed potato taste quite special, it is a bit spicy, like got some different herbs and spices taste in it. But I don't think I will order a large mashed potato if I visit this restaurant again. Err, not some taste that I will like to have it frequently. For the coleslaw, what else can I say? The standard taste la, similiar to KFC's coleslaw.
What about the biscuit??
It taste AWFUL! The texture is neither hard nor soft. It looks like a muffin but it was quite hard when you bite on it. Furthermore, it is tasteless! Yea I know biscuit right, but it is tasteless + not nice + the texture somehow made me think that I'm eating a product failure of either an unsuccessful muffin or biscuit. Anyway, it is just a side dish.
Seriously both of us don't have satisfaction at all.
Me very "palia" one. I took this photo because I think the spoon looks cute. Don't you think it looks like one of the "masak-masak" style of spoon??? (awwwww childhood memories~~~)

Pain!
Monday, 6 July
Today... I went to PM. Finally.
Aiyoh~~~~~~~~~~~ I'm so so so so reluctant to go wey. But if I don't go, my iron woman sis will kill me with her killer glare. So no choice lah!
Reached there at 4.30pm and sis sort of introduced me to her friends. Then, she directed me to a trainer and told me to fill in the member form. You know forms got a column specifically for acquiring member's health status. I felt like ticking all "yes" column for all the health problems. I even asked the trainer will I be spared from tough workout if I ticked all "yes". Being nice, she was patient enough to give me a smile and acknowledged my very "tak laku" joke.
So... sis told me to do warm up. me =.= immediately. You know why?! They look like normal workout instead of just a "warm up"!
Warm up regime:
5 minutes of rope skipping
Do 3 rounds of:
- 10 squats
- 10 sit up
- 10 figure of eight
- 10 push up
- 10 jumping pull up
- Samson stretch
I can't skip. So I was like =.= and >.<""
So both the trainer and sis taught me to skip. So-so lor, I can just skip once each time and most of the time I skip without both legs jump at the same time.
I managed to complete the warm up session. Then sis told me to do the workout! >.<""""
As I'm new (and weak), I was told to do "Mini Cindy", a different workout from the one my sis will be doing. But she accompanied me to do this workout though. XD That is why I have been calling her iron woman from the start!
"Mini Cindy" workout:
In 10 minutes, do as many rounds as possible of:-
5 jumping pull up
10 push up
15 squads
I managed to complete 7 rounds and another 5 jumping pull up and 10 push up. There was a boy who did with me. He completed 13 rounds! Aiya sis don't need to say la, she did blue band pull up, something like use a blue band to support her pull up instead of a table to support her.
After that sis taught me to do stretching. Then I finally can leave the place. Being stupid enough, I took the staircase instead of the lift. I forgot that my "kaki lenguh" and I was basically half walk half almost fall down style as I walked down the staircase. I guess my leg will be pain tomorrow, and now... my ass is pain la!! XD

Prison break
Wednesday, 1 July
I shall call this day as renovation day! Hahaha~
Because~~~ I went for scaling and cut my hair. I rebonded my fringe after a consistent persuasion by the hairdresser. He is good but ah... expensive lo! Bro said I act like a shopaholic. =.="
Thursday, 2 July
Finally... Outing with Charmaine!!! It was about 9 months since we last met before she fly to London. There were 5 of us -- Charmaine, PY, CY, Jessie and I. We went to Ajisen Ramen for lunch as both Charmaine and Jessie strongly disagree with having Western food. XD
Poor them. I think they will stop eating Western food until they are back to their uni. After that, it was TRANSFORMERS time!!!
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen -- 2.30pm
Just some small spoiler and comments here:
1. I prefer the first movie than the second movie.
2. Too much metals. I think guys will like it more than girls (except for my iron woman sis)
3. Quite a number of unexpected funny scenes. I like it.
4. Megan Fox is sexier in movie 2 but she looked prettier in movie 1.
5. Sam's scenes are lesser than the metals... -.-"

Sing k... again! Crazy right! 2 sing k within 5 days!
Yea! But this time is sing k with friends, the atmosphere and songs selection are different.
So... This is my first time knowing that the maximum number of songs that you can select in a go is 46 songs. So we had to wait for a song to end before we can select a new song (once we reached the quota).
There were 5 of us, Charmaine, PY, HY, Cheryl and I. I realised PY sang much more compared to the last outing. So YAY! Basically all 5 of us conquered the mic until 2 of the mic ran out of battery (or can't stand our voices?? =p)
But eh, I realise all my friends sing quite well. XD
You may think that I'm bias but what I can say is that all 5 of us represent different styles. Charmaine and HY are flexible type. HY's voice is more to girly, love song type while Charmaine's range is really wide! I'm a fan of her! Then, Cheryl and PY are more to lower key but surprisingly PY's voice is quite high when comes to higher key part. Ohya, I like Cheryl's R&B singing. XD
As for me, I don't like when I sing too high key. Sounds like a tikus! argh
Saturday, 4 July
Finally, I attended my jap class. As I skipped the whole June classes, I have 5 homework including current week's homework + addition revision homework! nooo~~~
I am so lazy to do and I will be having my finals on July 18. The best thing is, I'm so lazy to study and Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince is coming soonnnnn~~~!!!
I don't think I have the mood to STUDY but I guess I won't complain so much. Studying jap is my interest.
But...... I'm just so sick of the word --- exam.

Pasta Zanmai
Tuesday, 30 June @ Pasta Zanmai, One Utama
Outing day with mum! And! This is my first post exam celebration lunch~~ wahahaha~~~
YEA!!!!! EXAMS OVER!!!!!! For sem 1 but FREE!!!! (temporary though)
Food journey? Anime marathon? Drama fantasy? Bring it on! *yay*
Chicken Katsu Curry Rice
- To me, this is the BEST jap curry rice that I have ever tried! Yea~ Better than the one I tried at Haikara restaurant. This is my personal opinion anyway.
Why?
Because... Firstly, the curry is thick enough and there are ALOT of curry there (very generous). Secondly, the chicken cutlet is BIG enough and the chicken meat is nicely cooked. Thirdly, the curry level is just nice for me. Aiyoh I lack of vocab here.
Mum's Unagi Kabayaki to Onsen Tamago
- Their unagi is nice and fresh enough. Mum was very satisfied with this food. *shows a victory sign here* (v^__^v)
Tiramisu!
I miss the unagi wey! It reminds me of the taste when I look at it...
Now do you understand what do I mean by "ALOT of curry"??? *salivating crazily*
Favourite food item checklist:
1) curry - checked
2) chicken -checked
~~~~>>>> perfecto! =D
Yea I know the chicken here doesn't look really nice. Just wanna show that it is a big piece of chicken cutlet. (But of course! High price paid what! It is more expensive than Haikara restaurant okay!)
My favourite Tiramisu! (I'm spoilt wey~)
After that, Mum and I went to sing k at Neway for 5 hours! Syok!
Initially we have to rush back to the ss15 Neway but right before leave One U, the ss15 Neway called and informed us that they lost electricity and asked if I can change to other location. Oh man! We felt that we were so lucky because they switched the location for us AND we were not late for the karaoke session. Lucky day! (^0^)
