Ways to kill time

Ways to kill time (what I did tonight):

Facebooking

1. In the search column, type your own name and see the faces who share the name with you.
2. Go to your restaurant in Restaurant City(if you played this game) and just look at how the restaurant operates. How the chefs cook, how the waiters serve and how the customers eat or complain. They are cute!
3. Play some game which you can challenge your friends or yourself. Examples: Who has the biggest brain, Spot the difference, Typing maniac, etc. Break your own record!

Shopping

I did not go out but stay at home. I shopped online. According to many girls, shopping is therapeutic. Somehow it is true for me too. But this will kill your purse and terrify your another half.

Youtube

Search for anything that comes across your mind. ANYTHING. After finish watching 1 video clip, click on its related links and then continue watching. You can repeat this step for some time. Until you feel bored, search for something different.

Journals

Vivien told me that there is an online journal where we can access to the articles for free! And today is the last day. I should spend my time searching for the articles I needed. Indeed, I spent the least time for this. *guilty*

Going to bed, and telling myself that tomorrow will be a better day. Good night, everyone. Bonne nuit.

莫名其妙

有没有试过有这种感觉？当情况令你想放弃时，当你已经在另作打算时，事情却突然有转机？站在中间，是应该喜极而泣说“机会终于来了！”，还是满怀惆怅说“机会你来得太迟了。”然后继续往另一条路走？
我现在既没有回头走，也没有往前走；我站在路口，想处理那种莫名奇怪的感觉。因为不知往哪儿走，才会莫名其妙。

mp3突然间不省‘机’事！按什么都没反应，插进电脑也还是一样。它只是暂时沉睡一下，还是与世长辞了？不要吓我呀！是禧的mp3啊，我不想落在我手上就坏！

好像有很多东西要做。要一个一个列出来，然后才看得先做哪个。结果呢？一开电脑就是facebook！明明在facebook也玩到显了，就是宁愿对着电脑发呆，也不愿意去做该做的东西！

如果有一天世界大停电，或是没了互联网，没了facebook，没了google，我想我也没办法生存下去了。

The so-called hotdog buns

From another private kitchen.

After those cheesecakes, cupcakes, not-so-successful carrot cakes, chocolate cakes and tiramisu, chocolate walnut cookies, oatmeal raisin cookies and the failed biscotti, here comes another attempt.

The so-called hotdog buns.

Some said it tasted like the bun-like cookies of Popeye, the fast food restaurant. Okay, I admit that I made some mistakes during the process. :(

Wait for my next try!!

心。空。

心，像被淘空个精光，什么都不剩。空得我感觉好冷。

突然想起，以前一旦有这种感觉的时候，就会一个人驾车去兜兜风。
夜里，路上只有寥寥无几的车辆，我在车里安静地听歌。平时白天繁忙、塞车的城市，在夜里多平静、多美啊。
是平伏此心情最好的疗法。
这种心情很熟悉，是什么？





唔，想到了。
叫作失望。

失望，就是心感觉空空的一种心情。

A Snacking Night

Szee claimed that yesterday was his last day of lecture during his uni life, so he was in charge of everything and I had no rights to question where were we going to have dinner.

We arrived at Sunway Pyramid.

Hot & Roll

We wanted to try since quite some time ago, and we finally did. The menu is simple but with many choices.

Sweet fillings

Savoury fillings

And drinks.

Of course I would go for savoury one. I am not a fans of sweet dessert. Besides the fillings, you have a choice of paratha wrap or crispy wrap. We ordered a pizza(with beef pepperoni) paratha wrap and a satay chicken crispy wrap, plus an ice lemon tea.

You can just grab n' go. I prefer the paratha wrap. The sauce of the fillings will cause the crispy one to become soft but not crispy anymore.
Nice, convenient, and...

friendly kakak. ^^

This alone could not be our dinner, of course. Next station,

Pommes Frites, in Asian Avenue located in the mall too. There are nice foods in Asian Avenue, this Pomme Frites is just next to our favourite Korean restaurant.

Belgium fries is their signature dish.

So many choices of dippings!

They serve pasta as well. But both of us were not in pasta mood. So we ordered the Moules Frites (mussels with fries). We had clams instead of mussels. We were given choices for the clams' style, such as original, curry, tom yam, etc... We picked the ultimate style with cream, and white wine.

Tadaa~~

Love it! Fresh hot, nicely cooked, with onions and mushrooms. The clams were just nice, not overcooked like at many other places. The sauce was not too creamy, and flavour was enhanced by the white wine. We really liked it.

Szee's plate

My plate. Hehe.

The regular pot(500g) with white wine, plus a diet coke, the bill was RM20.40. Worth for money!! I feel hungry when look at the photos again...

So two light meals made our dinner. So full and yummy.

Chilly Pan Mee

... continued from previous post.

We had a walk in Low Yat Plaza after our brunch, and then.... We were trapped in the mall by the heavy rain out there. We walked rounds and rounds then we went to Sg Wang and BB Plaza. We were exhausted. In the end we decided to go back home in the rain.

Reached home, wet, cold and tired. After shower, WE FELT HUNGRY. It was just 5.30pm! And we just finished our buffet lunch 3 hours ago! Oh la la~

For dinner, we went to where we had dinner last night. Haha! Another new discovery, but this is good.

Super Kitchen Chilly Pan Mee Restaurant (The 3rd branch)

Clean environment.

Hygienic cutlery.

Last night I had their signature dry pan mee and Szee had the soup pan mee. Today Szee had the dry one, and I tried their curry pan mee.

The curry pan mee. Aiks, my humble phone, blur blur...

Signature dry pan mee. You can add their HOT dried chili as much as you like. Haiz my humble phone, lagi blur...

I like their signature dry pan mee and soup pan mee very much. The curry one was too thick and too 腻 for me. Szee tried a bit of the curry one and said it was the type of curry noodles he likes. I bet if he orders a bowl and finishes it he'll feel the same way as me. We will see during our next visit.

Dry, soup and curry are the only choices. You cannot choose the size of serving, either. They also serve some side dishes such as dumpling soup, wanton soup and Thai style taufu. Choices of drinks are limited too, but every customers there ordered this:

The thirst and FIRE quencher--lime and plum drink 桔子酸梅

The HQ of this restaurant is located at Jalan T.A.R. somewhere at Chow Kit. It is quite well known at that area.

They have another 4 branches.

Can see? This is at Dataran Sunway, Kota Damansara.

This is the Subang Jaya branch.

Taman Bahagia, PJ. Somewhere at Chow Yang.

This is the one we went, at Kepong, right beside Carrefour.

All the maps are so blur. Sorry lar, my phone is lousy ma.

The price of pan mee ranging from RM5-6. While the lime and plum drink costs us RM2.

Now only I realize that 2 of us are like pan mee-lovers, we've tried pan mee at so many places... Maybe one day I shall introduce 1 by 1 here. Our top 10 pan mee restaurants. Haha.

Yaki-Yaki Japanese BBQ Buffet (October Promotion)

Today is a not-so-boring day. We went to a new place for brunch.
It's not a new place, though. It's 'new' because we never been there before.

Yaki-Yaki Japanese BBQ Buffet Restaurant@Jalan Bukit Bintang. Next to Low Yat Plaza.

The restaurant is currently having a promotion until end of the month. The buffet lunch and hi-tea is only RM28.90++ on weekdays. That's why we were going. I even made reservation 1 day before. Once we reached I realized that the reservation might be unnecessary. There were lots of seats and only a few tables were occupied.

Before we started, the waitress told us that our promotional price didn't include salmons and oysters. If other choices like scallops, prawns, sashimi, etc (according to what i'd read from other food bloggers) were available, it's so reasonable even without salmons and oysters! I thought.

I didn't bring my camera. Just snapped a few with my humble phone.

Quite dark dining environment. Cannot be seen clearly from the photos. Aiks my humble phone.

The stove with red-hot charcoal inside.

It was the red flame but it turned blue in the photo. Aiks, my humble phone.

My invention--BBQ edamame. ;P

Honestly, both of us were disappointed. The choices were so pathetic! Maybe I thought it's almost the same with Tenji or Jogoya. But it wasn't. Or maybe they downgraded the food choices for the promotion period. Eventhough they have 4 different sections for the BBQ materials, but for us the food was almost the same. Just that the chicken, pork or fish were marinated with different sauces. There were only a few prawns and we didn't see any scallops! Vege were limited too, only a few mushroom skewers and some green peppers.

The sushi and sashimi section. Did I see any sashimi? I couldn't recall but Szee said he saw a little. The sushi choices were not many but some of them looked cute.

This section is similar in other Japanese buffet restaurants. You put your table number in the goblet next to the desired dish, and the waiter will serve to your table.

An almost invisible section. The Japanese pancakes. I tried it before at somewhere else, hot and nice. These were cold.

Desserts. The fresh cut fruits didn't look nice, so we didn't take any.

They do not have Haagan-Dazs but they serve Baskin Robins.

So many handmade mochi.

Cakes and jellies.

We were quite disappointed by the drinks section too. All the 'fake' juices. No coconuts! There was a counter with a few glasses of sample mocktails. I ordered the combination of orange and pineapple juice. The waiter took out a large jar of juice, stirred and poured into a glass then passed it to me! I thought the juice will be freshly squeezed after I ordered. ;(

I am not sure whether this is the quality of promotional food or it's the quality of Yaki-Yaki. Okay maybe the food and choices were there, but just didn't suit us. Szee said, "I rather go to Seoul Garden in 1U!" Yup we had a good time in there, with student price. We had steamboat, grilled food and even created our own stir-fry recipe.

We walked out from the restaurant at 2.30pm in disappointment.

To be continued...

Please.....

I've played all sorts of games on Facebook...
Clicked on almost all the video posts linked by my friends...
I even talked to myself... (by signing in with my own account, signed out then signed in again using Szee's account and then left a comment...)
I am so boooooooooooooooooooooooooooored.....

Ti Kong ah Ti Kong... Please stop raining.... I wanna go swimming....
Please....

Meatballs! Meatballs!!! Meatballs 上映了！

像两个馋嘴的小孩，我们早在几个月前就在盼这部戏的到来。因为看了它的广告，就知道戏里有很多吃的！

Tropicana City Mall 还有相关活动呢。买了票还有时间，就去看看。

好大一个蛋！好像好好吃哦。要不是被围着，一定叫禧下去拍照。

猜猜有多少粒肉丸？

比萨看起来没很好吃，可是有人就是贪吃。

唔，话说回来，这部戏。戏的情节似乎太赶了一点点。可是还不错啦，蛮喜欢的。
最近的这种动画片，怎么好像都变得很有深度。总觉得以前的卡通动画就是简简单单的，现在的却深藏着许多道理。是不是因为人的心境不同了，所以就算是看一样的戏也会有不同的领悟？
也许是我现在的环境和心态，令我看什么都会对号入座吧？


男主角Flint的爸爸，沉默寡言。当Flint兴致勃勃想要跟爸爸分享他成功的喜悦，爸爸冷冷的反应在他头上泼了一大桶水。Flint的失望是绝对能够被理解的。没有家人的认同，赢了全世界又怎样？到最后多亏有Flint的伟大发明，一架能够读取思想的翻译机，让词不达意的爸爸终于能说明心声。
那架机器，有在哪里出售吗？真想拥有一架。

那矮子摄影师Manny穿得很奇怪吧？才知道原来他穿着的是医生袍。他原来是医生，也是飞机师，但却为了更好的生活所以来当摄影师？？真是搞笑。很喜欢他这个角色，虽然只是小配角。有多少个医生、飞机师，能够那么谦虚地深藏不露！




还有的是...科学家，就是这种呆呆的科学怪人吗？最近很多戏里的科学家，就是呆呆的，是学术上的天才，但对日常的人情世故却是白痴。这些科学家为了能够继续他们的研究，变得好坏不分、六亲不认，真的是这样的吗？？怎么这些戏的编剧好像都对科学家有偏见。

其实入场看戏前，还买了一些东西。
嘻嘻。作纪念嘛。
