Updates Updates

I have read my first book for a very very long time.... Though it was not a thick book and I finished it in 1.5 hours, but I still read something ok!! =) I actually had this book from Honeydrew since early November and I have not went beyond 5 pages until recently!! The first book I read in 2008 =) and its a good book!! Talk bout how some people resist change and how we should always be ready for changes..... I am ashamed to say that in certain situation I react like Haw but at least there are moments where I am Hem. Better late than never =) Will I ever be Scurry and Sniff one day?? haha I think I will settle for Hem but a quicker Hem!! If there is such a thing!

Anyway, I am currently reading two books,

This is my bed-time book. I read 1 to 2 chapters every night before I sleep. Teach me how to invest in the stock market - the Buffett way. His idea is to keep things simple and buy good bluechip stocks to keep and patiently wait for it to increase over the yearS (Maybe many many years). Of course there are other strategies as well like buying when everyone is selling, buying shares of companies that you know and is familiar with and etc etc.... So far there are not much calculations involve....

The other book that I am reading. I keep this book in my car so that I bring it where ever I go and can read it whenever I am waiting or am free and have nothing to do. This book is more of teaching you how to value the stocks.... found this book in one of my dad's book shelves.




OK enough about books.... lets move on to food =)

Was craving for crabs the other day and was sooooo happy when they change the gathering venue to Pantai Seafood so that I can have crabs =) YUMMY!!!!!!

Yummy Yummy Salted Egg Yolk Crabs - my all time favourite (though I know its super high in cholesterol)

Butter-milk crab - Excellent to dip with fried "man tao"

Clockwise L-R: Japanese snail in chili padi and small dried prawns, Vege in superior stocks, Steam fish, House special Tofu

There were only 4 of us and we ordered 6 dishes and actually finished everything!! Very satisfying dinner =) There were even rooms for desserts as we then proceed to Alexis in BSC to meet up with Gu Yaw and have tea and desserts =)




On Saturday, I went for the Empower Lives Training at The Mines Beach Resort and Spa.

The training was ok lar.... Was more on teamwork.... Nothing compared to the Zubedy's Training on Making a Difference that I went before this =) hehe

The SMART Team Making a Difference!!

Me and the trainer, Anas Zubedy - he is so funny and smart!! =)

Not just the training is better but the food is also world apart!! hehe =) Just look at how much sashimi and cheesecake I ate!! And the coffee is the yummiest coffee ever cause I put lotsa lotsa vanilla ice-cream in it to replace sugar and creamer!! Sooooooo good!! =) Considering I don't even drink coffee on a normal day!!




Then on Sunday, I brought my Mimi to eat Fish Head Noodles @ Taman Desa..... This place was actually recommended by DramaQueen!! It was such a miscommunication when we talked about Fish Head Noodles!!!! I was talking about the other shop in Kuchai Lama and she is talking about this shop in Taman Desa!! Coincidentally both shops are near a Shell station and also a school!!!!! I asked her is it turn at the Shell she said yes yes... then I say opposite got one school one right and she said yes yes.... end up I was at Kuchai Lama and she was at Taman Desa.....

Me: Eh I'm there dy... where are you... a lot people lar....
DQ: I'm there too... yeah a lot people.... I am waiting for table
Me: I am waiting for table too, where are you, I can't see you
DQ: I can't see you too.... I got table dy where are you......

And this goes on for a good 5 minutes...... Finally when I reach the Taman Desa fish head noodles shop, I wasn't really in the mood to enjoy the noodles.... But I did remember that it tasted quite good as well.... So I decided to go back and savour it again with my Mimi...... Very different from the Kuchai Lama shop. Both are good but both taste differently!! This one has got a bit of wine taste as well.....

Finally get to enjoy the Fish Head Noodles......




Then for dinner, Ah Beng brought me and DQ to Look Out Point at Hulu Langat. Its a hill top restaurant where you can enjoy the KL view while dining. I was a bit late and also got lost on the way to Ah Beng's house and both of them keep blaming me that they will miss the sunset because of me!! But to be fair, when we reached there, the sun was just about to set but we couldn't see it clearly cause it was raining earlier and the sky was cloudy!! So.... its not my fault yah!! hehe Don't ask me to give you back your sunset!! We can only go again next time.....

The hidden sunset.

These two sor por don't know how to camwhore one!! Keep moving here and there..... I look the same in every shot!! kaka and why am I smiling like that??? Look so weird lar!!! ish!!!

The night view

The assorted tea that I ordered. They bring a glass of hot water and I get to choose which tea I want. I choose a strawberry tea =) *The food btw, is western and is ok only lar - edible but nothing to shout about*

I don't know how to use my camera in night mode!!!!!!!!!! Can anyone teach me??? hehe Your hands need to be super steady if not the photos will come out blur like this!!!!!! Wasted lar!!!!





Oh oh oh..... I'm so excited!!! Val just got a new pool table in her house =) hehehehehe *I know lar not my house also* But I'm excited cause I'll get to play also mar!! hehe =)




Lastly, you know what???? Was at the Zara sales and I found this dress which look exactly the same dress that I bought from Bysi in Singapore!!! Its selling for RM199 in Zara (after discount) and I only bought it for S$20 in Singapore!!! Actually Pen bought it for me with a 50% discount card. I feel so happy because of the good bargain!! I swear it looks and feels exactly the same!! Every details of the dress looks the same.... except for the first stripe at the waist area where mine is dark brown and the Zara one is pink...... The rest of the colour is actually the same also, just that the lighting is different when I took the photos!
