Target!

Hm...Whose money is easy to earn? LADIES!!!

Which ladies money is easy to earn??? Shan Shan and I ....:P
Why? If a sales person target to get RM 5,000 income customer, we will be the right target. We are not at RM 5,000, and yet we are able to spend RM 8,000!

Sound cool??? Behind the scene is terrible!!!

After satisfying with the shopping desire, the life after it is really helpless!!!
And once you explode yourself, you can't stop doing it, and the cycle repeat!! The saving keep on negative... It can never be recovered :(

Painting Day

Finally, I started the renovation. At least I started with the paint, and I have got two contractors to come to measure the place, and quote me. I estimate to have the renovation done within 2 months. It's not a big renovation, it will be very simple things...

I have got Diana to go with me for painting. Ha....you can't see me in the picture, as I am the camera lady!


Diana was concentrating...This is supposed to be my wall, I do not have the skill to climb the stairs, so I paint the lower part, and she helped me to finish the top.
Ha...see? this is not painting skill problem! It's on purpose 1 :)
I will have plaster ceiling to cover it.
This is the wall that I painted, with nobody help :) Professional??
I set a lot of trap for myself when I was painting this wall. Therefore, I have got my hands, and legs all with the drop of paints. Ha....
This is Diana wall....she painted lower part, and leave the top later. She is not listening to me ler...
She painted vertical, horizontal, and more design.....

I was too tired. I snake out to snap some pictures, as per Yen Lieng request. (Inside-Out) I love the view so much. It's so green. That's the swimming pool that tied my heart to make decision to buy this condo.
There is a jacuzzi at the pool too!
nice hor....

There is a park near by...

Anyway, we completed 3 walls only. We will have to go back tomorrow.

My back is so pain!!!! I stop painting and get Diana to help me to complete the top of 3rd wall. I was lying on the floor....Took a half an hour nap, she thought me "sudah pengsan" (fainted).

I bought Diana KFC dinner plate to thank her for helping me to paint this....

Can't imagine my Monday. After two days of painting ....ha.....with my age....ha.... (wanna cry)

Teoh Chew Street Food

Last night, Joshua (my brother) found a blog, which the blogger introduce a Teoh Chew street food at Tmn Bahagia near SS2. It looks so nice on pics. So we decided to hunt for it! We want to find good Teoh Chew food (we are Teoh Chew kia). We both commented that Mom's Teoh Chew food is not traditional and not that good taste. We miss good Teoh Chew food!!!

So, today I met Joshua and Crystal (his gf) after work at SS2. Then we went to find this place. We reached there around 6.45pm.

This is the street. Not many stalls though.


We also found the stall, which we were looking for!!!Here it is. Ah....but nothing there except they were boiling water.
Okay! Drink and sweet sweet mari.....
Red Bean sweet soup
Ice-Kacang!



Let me taste ha sin.....Ha...damn hungry. The uncle next stall told us, normally stall open at 7-8pm. Yesterday was early, open about 7.30pm. Shoot....it's only 6.45pm....Well....gotta try other side dishes then...

One plate of gum heong la la! It really taste so good. From the stall, we didn't expect to turn up so good!

Then we ordered a mamak fried noodle. Sorry no picture here, as we were hungry, forgot to shoot it.
Then we ordered this fish. I asked auntie...."Auntie, what fish do you have for grill?" Auntie said, "I have soli fish". What??? Soli fish? I didn't catch it. So I asked again, "Auntie, what's soli fish?" She explained to me "it is fish without bone, taste very good one!". Okay, let's try. It taste very good also. This stall is the same as gum heong la la stall.

Then I found out that, it's not soli fish. It should be dory fish!!!

Oh finally, around 8.15pm, when every table of peoples are waiting for the Teoh Chew stall to open, the boss finally came. We thought the set up time must be long, but they are pretty efficient. It took them approximately 5 mins to get ready to sell. They are all with "Hong Leong T-shirt" as uniform. We wonder are they working at Hong Leong. Therefore, they can't set up their stall any earlier.

Ehmm...Ehm....let's see what do they have!
Mee Jaya (Kedah Style)
Mee Diao (friend Teoh Chew noodle)

Chai Kueh

At the stall.....
They are pretty hygiene. They have closed section for the food. Inside that's guan zhiang and chai kueh.

Okay. Comment time!!!
Overall, I think the food there is good. Every stall of food also taste very nice, really!!! EXCEPT, the Teoh Chew stall, that you have to self-service, you have to Q-up to buy!!!And you have to wait!!!!

We thought my mom is cooking chin chai, we have new thought now. If mom willing to make the kueh, and fry the mee diao, she will get very famous!!! Really!!! Mom's cooking for Teoh Chew cuisine is much better loo!!!

I wanna "yai cheong" to the blog who blog that stall. To whom who recommend this stall!!!

Please lar!!

A Quiz from Change Agent by Synovate

Change Agent is a magazine, which always talk about brand related issues. It's also showing the success and the failure stories about some brands in the market. It also shares the international market info.

I got a quiz invitation to test on my loyalty to brands. Here is my result :P I found it pretty true about me.

Brand Philanderer
"Love 'em and leave 'em. When it comes to brands you are impervious. You're far more concerned about a truly great experience, regardless of where it originates. If a brand can keep the good times rolling, you'll stay. As soon as it lets you down, you're out the door.

Keep an eye out for the special 'One-night stand consumer' cover on your June edition of Change Agent magazine. The issue is all about customer experience and covers how brands are catering to loyal consumers as well as consumers like you! It's coming your way soon."


Man VS Woman

I have got this from Wingz. I found it funny, with "logic" :P



女人有两个优点,但有一个漏洞;男人虽然没有优点,却有一个长处;男人经常抓住女人的两个优点,用自己的长处弥补女人的漏洞,这叫天衣无缝。男人为何聪明?男人有两个头,女人为何爱吃?女人有两张嘴,男女为何结婚?男人想通了,女人想开了,又为何离婚?男人知道深浅了,女人知道长短了。营养学家研究婚后男人发胖而女人瘦的原因:男人每晚有两袋鲜奶,一个燕窝,两个鲍鱼片;而女人每晚只有一根火腿肠,两个鹌鹑蛋。男人是牛,女人是地,没有耕坏的地,只有累死的牛;牛越耕越瘦,地越耕越熟;好火费碳,好女费汉,男人要性福,更应要性命。

端午节- Dumpling Festival

It's Dumpling Festival today! It's a big day for Chinese to celebrate, it's on 5th day of 5th lunar month .


Just a brief of the origin of the festival:

Qu Yuan (Chinese: 屈原; pinyin: Qū Yuán) (ca. 340 BC - 278 BC) was a Chinese patriotic poet from southern Chu during the Warring States Period. His works are mostly found in an anthology of poetry known as Chu Ci. His death is commemorated on Duan Wu or Tuen Ng Festival (端午节/端午節), commonly known as the Dragon Boat Festival in the West.

Qu Yuan was a minister in the government of the state of Chu, descended of nobility and a champion of political loyalty and truth eager to maintain the Chu state's sovereignty. Qu Yuan advocated a policy of alliance with the other kingdoms of the period against the hegemonic state of Qin, which threatened to dominate them all. The legend has it that the Chu king, however, fell under the influence of other corrupt, jealous ministers who slandered Qu Yuan, and banished his most loyal counselor. It is said that Qu Yuan returned first to his family's home town. In his exile, he spent much of this time collecting legends and rearranging folk odes while travelling the countryside, producing some of the greatest poetry in Chinese literature while expressing his fervent love for his state and his deepest concern for its future.

According to legend, his anxiety brought him to an increasingly troubled state of health; during his depression, he would often take walks near a certain well, during which he would look upon his reflection in the water and be his own person, thin and gaunt. In the legend, this well became known as the "Face Reflection Well." Today on a hillside in Xiangluping in Hubei province's Zigui, there is a well which is considered to be the original well from the time of Qu Yuan.

In 278 BC, learning of the capture of his country's capital, Ying, by General Bai Qi of the state of Qin, Qu Yuan is said to have written the lengthy poem of lamentation called "Lament for Ying" and later to have waded into the Miluo river in today's Hunan Province holding a great rock in order to commit ritual suicide as a form of protest against the corruption of the era.

Popular legend has it that villagers carried their dumplings and boats to the middle of the river and desperately tried to save Qu Yuan, but were unsuccessful. In order to keep fish and evil spirits away from his body, they beat drums and splashed the water with their paddles. They threw rice into the water as a food offering to Qu Yuan and to distract the fish away from his body. However, late one night, the spirit of Qu Yuan appeared before his friends and told them that he died because of a river dragon. He asked his friends to wrap their rice into three-cornered silk packages to ward off the dragon. These packages became a traditional food known as zòngzi, although the lumps of rice are now wrapped in reed leaves instead of silk. The act of racing to search for his body in boats gradually became the cultural tradition of dragon boat racing, which is held on the anniversary of his death every year.

Today, people still eat zòngzi and participate in dragon boat races to commemorate Qu Yuan's sacrifice on the Duan Wu festival, the fifth day of the fifth month of the Chinese lunar calendar. The Koreans later adopted the festival from the Chinese and called it the Dano festival.[1]

I just love the dumpling so much. You can get it now, everywhere, anytime with no seasonality. I love it. It's made with sticky rice, there are two types. One of it is salty dumpling. It's with pork, dried shrimp, peanuts, egg yolk, and more ingredients!


The out look of the dumpling!

The inside of the dumpling.
This is the dumpling which is tasteless. You eat it with sugar, or melted Melacca sugar, or Kaya.

Yummy Yummy!!! There are very traditional food, and yet, taste very good. (But warning! It's very fattening, and those with high blood pressure are not suitable to consume it!!!)

Cold Room

I am in Penang this weekend. My grandma admit to the hospital, in ICU since Wednesday. Therefore, my family travel to Penang to see grandma.

We can't see my grandma together due to she is in ICU. So we go in two by two. Mom and dad went in first, and we were waiting outside.

There were peoples there. Two of the aunties were chatting in Hokkien. One of them said "mah mah had her operation last night. After the operation, she was sent to the cold room right away (* She was pointing the ICU direction). " My brother looked at me right away, and we were laughing silently!

Cold room?? ICU is different from "cold room". In Hokkien, cold room is somewhere nurse store dead peoples before the family to collect the body (Sorry I do not know the term)!!!!

We were speechless, want to tell them that, "Come on!!! It's not cold room, it's ICU!! I know, it's cold due to the lowest temperature of air-condition to keep the equipments running. But.....Cold Room?!?!?!?"

Choy Choy Choy!!! Our grandma is inside!! Please do not simply say that!!!


Then we went to my aunt apartment. She showed us grandma's letter (grandma can't really talk, but she can still write very well). Grandma complaint that Aliyah, and the Inn (Another of her maid) were bullying her, beat her, and a lot more. Now I believe that the C*Bai Aliyah is really a good actress! She really C*BAI, DARE HER BULLIED MY GRANDMA!!!

Natural Disaster

As we all are aware that recently there were two massive natural disaster happened at Burma and China. I believe I do not need to bring up the whole story because such a massive one the whole world should know about it.


But one thing I would really love to share with you guys and would like to hear your opinions about it. A friend of mine from China who is living in Sydney told me that she has been watching China News through the net almost every night until mid night just to see what has happened to eath quake and any updates.


She said there is this program is only about the Earth Quake at China. Interviewed injured victims or families. There were 2 stories that really caught my heart.


1) A new born baby girl was found alive next to the parents. What they have found also that next to the baby is a mobile phone. With that mobile phone on the screen it was showing a message typed in Chinese, but translated as " If you are lucky enough to be alive and picked up by someone, please remember I loved you. Mum.". It was said that this message was type by the mother while she and her husband were struggling to get out but was stucked under huge stones and eventually they both are dead


It was just a simple sentence but it touched my heart and I felt the pain. After I heard this I was speechless for awhile and alot of things going through my mind. I thought of the baby. I thought of the parents especially the mother, how did she feel at the time typing the message. I became really moody that day and couldn't help myself thinking about this. How sad it is.


My friend said it is better to let the baby die rather than to let her survive because she will no longer grow up as a normal person with bio family. But in my opinion for this instant, it is ok to let her survive because as we said shes still young, she wouldn't know or feel what had happened. Perhaps she will be adopted by a good family and she will live as a normal kid. Maybe..one day when she grown up she will be told the truth. But at least she would not remember what have happened in the past. I guess she will be fine.


2) A young girl about 15 years old was stuck and couldn't get out. Her family members are all dead. People are trying to get her out but failed. The rescurers told her the ONLY WAY to get her out was to cut off her both legs. She was strongly refused and begging them to let her die. But as her uncle was there he demanded them to cut her legs and rescue her. She really din't want to do it at all and she wished to die. But uncle forced her and rescurer to cut off her legs.
Yes she is survive but her legs are gone, families are gone.


My friend and I both agreed that should let her die for many reasons. It is sad for her to live the rest of her life with no family and no legs. Moreover, the disaster scenes and the strong pain will forever stay inside her. Whats she gonna do? The thing is she really didn't want to have her legs ampulated. She really didn't want to live but the uncle made her to live and her life will no longer the same. I feel that she will not be happy for the rest of her life. If I was her I will chose to die.


Since the disaster happened at Burma and China, the population of both countries added up has decreased by almost half a million. We are talking MILLIONS here, not thousands. People lost home, no food, no water and wonder what and where will they lead to in the future.


I guess at this stage we are all very sure that we are so much luckier than those victims. So so so much that we actually can give our hands to help. So guys, do you think your life is bad? Do you think the god is not treating you fair enough? Do you always complain of your life not as good as others? Who is the others that you compare with?


So far I think god has treated us very very good. Don't you agree?

Chinese working culture

One leg kicking and include mountain include sea

What do you think, is that what your boss trying to get from you?? Do you sometimes envy about others working style??

Couldn't stop laughing when when i first heard about it in English, but can't be more true.

Hair Extension- Round 2

Here is the story. I went to do hair extension with Shan Shan. We were too free till nothing to do, but we wanna try new thing!

Well well well....she has a long hair, so she just extend 40 pcs of the hair to make her hair looks longer. Guess how many did I do? I did 180 pcs. Therefore, it took me 2 1/2 hours at the salon for the extension. I was so sleepy!

last night, when I reached home, I feel very geli with the hair. I went toilet during mid night, I was frighten by myself! Then when I sleep, I feel very pain when I accidentally sleep on the hair.
When I woke up this morning, I called Shan Shan. I told her that I decided to perm the hair. We both complaining about the hair extension. And we won't even do it, no matter whoever give us money to do it next time. She advise me to cut off the hair, so not to put in sunk cost. Well, she must be kidding me again soi poh.

So I went to the salon again to perm my hair with another sunk cost of RM 200. So, to avoid myself look like a long and straight hair ghost. Deng deng deng deng....Now I look like long and curl hair ghost :P

I reached home around 6.15pm after the permed. And I went dinner, and continue to busy with the hair....goshhh.....I went to buy colour with Shan. I do the colour for her, then she do it for me. When my turn to wash out the colour, there is black out! D*ao liao.....

I was like the Indonesian at construction site, wash my hair outside of the house, because no electricity the water volume was very small, the only place to make it fast was at the outside. Again, Shan Shan comment that the hair doesn't lai si.....we have to take off the hair soon :P

hm...that's an excuse, we decided to take it off very soon. But we have to keep it at least for a week or two to minimize the "pai gah" level. Anyway, it's enough!!! One time experience!
