Weekends and jumpings

Wednesday, October 03, 2007

Last weekend was a short break from the cram that is the study week. Sis came back from Hong Kong with goodies. Mid Autumn festival just passed but fret not, those calorie packed parcels are still out there if you look at the right places. Sis brought home a bunch of them from the land of Dim Sum and Wantan Mee.



mooncake with nuts and meat


mini mooncake


some mooncake-ish kuih with century egg...yea those black eggs you get with your porridge

Then there's this huge mooncake that cost her RM50 for a piece. Contains 9 salted yolks. 9!

The granddaddy of mooncakes..somewhere on it says 9 yolks


yolk in every slice


and all that other mooncakes


egg rolls


and egg tards.

There's this donut mania around the local blogosphere. Why get all obsessed with candy-coated fried dough that makes you fat when you can have bread-coated...


...fried biscuits that makes you fat? uh no


...fried chicken that makes you fat. Booyah!

Popped a few into the oven and yeh! baby! Prefer them over donuts any day. Add...

...mom's milky mashed taters and you got a smiling fat ass - me!

Of course food wasn't all she packed home.

Quiksilvers~! I got the blue pink ones...ghey~


Didn't get to study much last weekend cause I had to do a video recording of our robotic arm for our assignment. ugghh~ Ah Kiong better have some good marks for me...maybe I'll post the video here once I'm done :D One more week to celebrations and festivities !


then let's go jumping!

Another b'day and some funny picshurs

Saturday, September 22, 2007

10 days since I last posted. Weirdly the visitor count increased more during this duration. Anyway the studio pics from my bro's graduation finally came back. Here's some:


The usual family pic


The usual family pic with me looking sleepy..


One eye big one eye small...but still looking smart


With the robe she stoled..not really but she didn't give it back...and she graduated in 2001


Mom looking cool

Pops and me didn't have our individual pics.


This leaves only me..

A visit to the studio wouldn't be complete with a weird pose pic..
Uh-huh

Oh well and I thought they were suppose to photoshop me to look better.

Best pic evar


Moar pics for those who give a damn.

Here's a quickie for a friend. Happy b'day to Desmond Keo, another pilot of the many pilots at Crew and also AirAsia. I would post a pic of us but since guys don't take pics together..I'm forced to steal pics from other blogs.

If you were an autobot, then you would transform into an Airbus


When you're back we can do this again...don't you love how Kiwen looks..

You currently appear on:
Van's blog
Aya's blog
Sue's blog
and now mine since the others don't keep a blog. And also a blog which I can't speak of here.
Happy 21st and enjoy piloting. Wishing you ever more prosperity.

Graduation

Monday, August 13, 2007


Last weekend was my brother's graduation/convocation. I'm gonna refer to it as graduation because it's cooler.
I was already in KL on Friday because we needed to take family photos and stuff at a wedding studio in SS/dunno what. Sis had to get to the Terengganu that night. Anyway I'll post some photos of that once I get them.

Stayed the night at a condo in Bukit Jalil courtesy of my bro's boss. Nice dude. Stayed with Ay Lai; my bro's gf and her family

6.30 am

Had to make our way there early because the graduates have to be at the hall at 7.30am.

The flowers me and sis got for them both..habis la my one month gaji  :O


Looking nice in graduation garb

Knowing the ceremony is gonna last around 4 hours, I made plans with Vijay who was staying at some cf dudes at Cyberia. 
So after dropping them off I accompanied them to the hall and made off after they went in. I called Vijay who sleepily led me in the apartments and I crashed on the couch for the next 5 hours haha.

Meanwhile...
The graduates making their way in.


The Chancellor forgot-her-title Siti Hasmah


List of graduates from his major

Then the speeches were given by the Chancellor and other big shots.

I think this is displayed when the graduate is called up to receive their empty degree. This is my bro's. Can't really see what he wrote. And yes when they go up to receive their degrees, it's just an empty box and you have to collect the real thing after the whole ceremony. Love MMU.

When it was all done..and I was still sleeping on the couch


Bro and Ay Lai


Throwing their rented hats around...so graduation eih


The robes are colour-coded for each faculty. If only engineering got the silver ones...

Bro and his friends camwhored for the next 3 hours while I hung out with the cf dudes who were also graduating. Then we left for Alamanda Putrajaya for lunch.


Manhattan Fish Market ~
 

Bro's treat of course


This really cool bamboo forest in Alamanda. Have I told you I love bamboo forests?


Guess mom was so happy she got me White Chocolate and Macadamia Cake from Secret Recipe. Sinfully sweet. I mean the cake of course.

Bro's working in Penang now in the same engineering firm as Ay Lai. For me it's already like she's my sister-in-law haha since my mom and pops both approves. Her parents also approves. So next time I've got a place to stay if I visit Penang :D

Got a little lecture on the way back to Malacca after that; "must study harder so I can graduate too." Both my brother and sister have graduated and have started working. I'm the only bum left at home that is leeching their money
>.< Mom didn't say that haha I was just thinking.
But I'm not in a hurry to graduate and start working, I wanna spend this 2 years of sanctioned unemployment to the max.

Saw these people in Malim after reaching Malacca. Weird modified tall bikes dangling with performing items like hula hoops and a guitar. Travelling performers I guess. They attracted a lot of attention too as motorists was stopping by the roadside to take pictures of them. So if you see them anywhere in Malacca please tell me. I'm curious :D

sh|ru visits Siem Reap, Day 4

Thursday, August 09, 2007

The last day and the flight was at 12pm. In order to shop more they forced me up at 8.30am...


This is what you get for watching 8 Mile till 2am

So last minute shopping and I was looking for souvenirs for the guys back home.

Hanging meat


Vegetables and stuff


This is a girl we met at the central market. She's Chinese and speaks teow chiew too. I think she's an immigrant and she's married to a local and speaks fluent Khmer, the Cambodian language. So lot's of cheap stuff from her :D

After some recommendations we stopped by for local beef noodles. It was ok and the soup was sweet. Nice balls of meat though D:

When that's done it's time to go home. The last pic with David at the airport. And then it was goodbye Cambodia

This is not voyeur! Just something I thought was "interesting" . All the air stewardess of AirAsia are very well endowed~ But they wear too heavy of makeup. Yerr

Passing immigrations with the new passport is a breeze now

Slot in your passport and put your thumb on the sensor and you're done

Home greets us with showers


That's the end of my little trip to humble Cambodia. I would go back there again if there's a chance and I would really like to spend at least two days at the temples. Those are really beautiful places.

Here are most of the pics for this trip. Here are the pick of the crop, my fav pics.
