Terry Fox Run 2008

I just came back from the Lake Garden for the Terry Fox Run. It was very crowded and it's more like a fun WALK rather than fun RUN. However, the fun is real for sweating it out and embrace the mother nature on a breezy morning; seriously the 5km distance is just a piece of cake. It's even more fun when we enjoyed our yummy dim sum at Taman Connaught after the event, there we put back our calories. Haha.

We are the representatives of HP Cyberjaya. Just few of us, so pathetic.

Alvin's failed attempt to mimic the sun with his head. :p

Detox with applesss

Me and few of my colleagues were undergoing detox plan since Tuesday. The detox approach we were using which is just taking apples and water continuously for 3 days. It's not just for slimming purpose, but also for health purpose and hopefully to improve my skin condition as well.

Day 1 : I was like a zombie since morning due to the caffeine dependency. Craving for food especially during lunch, very suffering and almost feel like giving up, first day considered the most suffering phase perhaps due to not used to it yet, have to keep remind myself not to give up. Slept at 9pm coz really too tired. Took 3 apples for breakfast, lunch and dinner, plus a sugarless soya bean before sleep.

Day 2 : Woke up at 6am++, do some light exercise and yoga at home. Feel better compare to first day but still feeling fatigue. Slept at 10pm. Took 3 apples only in a day. Rushed to toilet a lot of times although I didn't consume much food, guess those are the "outcome" of my detoxifying. :p

Day 3 : Last day of detox. I was amazed that I was still able to be determined. Just took a glass of warm honey in the morning and 3 apples again for whole day. Again, did some yoga and stretching at home then go to bed at 10pm++.

Day 4 : Yahoo!! it's all over. I weight myself and so surprised that I have slim down 2kg in merely 3 days! Great sense of achievement!! And surprisingly I don't have much craving for food anymore and feel very fresh, albeit it's not that obvious in my skin improvement, but I can feel my body was being cleanse up like after a spring cleaning. Actually this is my second times practise this and I can say it's definitely a great experience and I will recommend you to do it too!

JoJo Pan Mee

Yeah, I have found a new makan place for delicious pan mee. It is the Jojo cafe which located at Kuchai Lama Entrepreneurs Park. They serve really special pan mee in lots of varieties; even the chilli paste are in 3 types. Actually it was KTV who heard about this shop, initially she was so excited about it mainly due to it's origin from her hometown which is the east coast of Malaysia, but after that we heard more and more people recommend this place, so we know we must make it to give it a try one day!!!

Finally we make it today! Wow, the pan mee here is really zheng. The chilli paste also very nice and makes me keep eating it just like that before the pan mee being served. I tried the Herbal Pan Mee and I almost drain the whole bowl of soup. The traditional "刀麻切" which ordered by KTV also not bad, these noodles are having the special chewy texture.

Besides, we ordered the Taufu Far, KTV claimed that the taufu far from her hometown is very smooth, unbeatable by the taufu far selling in KL! I gave her a -_- expression while she said that; but surprisingly, the normal-looking tau fu fa really yummy, it is so tender and smooth. It just slip thru my throat once I scoop it into my mouth. It's overall a superb lunch, Zheng! Another must try in town, it is just same row with the famous Win Soon Fishhead Noodle at Kuchai Lama. I wanna go again to try on their Lat Jiu Pan Mee. Slurp~~~

The chilli paste. The right most one is delicious even just eat like that.

刀麻切 - meaning "cut by big knife" in Hakka (Dao Ma Chet). Funny name.

Pan Mee in Herbal Soup. Superb!!

Smooth smooth tau fu far

Huat Lar!!

It was a special day for me on 9th Oct 2008. I have moved into my cozy corner on this day; albeit it's not a "real" moving in until I got my wardrobe installed, but still I feel very excited.

Why 9th of Oct? Hmm, I am kinda 8 poh nowadays, my sister chose the date for me from the "tong sheng". Besides, I also followed some custom such as boil water once I enter the house, and put some rice at each corner of the house to get rid of those "dirty" stuff and etc. Hahaha. I found it funny too.

Actually I felt very happy because my colleagues so "give face" to come to my house on this day. They made my house so merry for the first time, although I felt like it is going to explode with all the noises we made, especially some of them shout "Huat Lar!" when they enter my house, I can feel the echo is soooo strong. Haha.. They are really a bunch of funny colleagues of mine.

Now I am waiting for my wardrobe to be installed, at the mean time will shop for some furniture and electrical appliance. Hopefully can officially move in by November. :)

Full house

Part of the DBA team. I requested Chia Lee to wear in red together with me to "Ong" my house. Haha.

All sit on the floor. *paiseh

makan time

I bought the Domino's but the food is not enough eh. Really under estimate their stomach capacity. Haha. I will keep in mind to buy more food for my official house warming.

All of us (Me as the photographer)

So touching, they gave me Ang Pow too. ^___^

The Winner Takes It All

The Winner Takes It All - a song that make me cry in the cinema.




I don't wanna talk
About the things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now it's history
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play

The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny

I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
Building me a home
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules

The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear
The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain
Why should I complain.

But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you?
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name?
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed

The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all

I don't wanna talk
Cause it makes me feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all...

Time to change

I'm not a perfect person, not even close to that. I've seen enough of weaknesses in myself; it's time for me to change to be a better person, no more excuses and pracrastenating this time.
