Dream blog

Dream. Of various things  including :
Me playing a classic rpg game like d&d, controlling few characters to attack.  I was using cleric and something else (total of four).
After that we were back in a castle and I was tinkering my group based on the points that I have.
The castle looks like Lego set which I did edit it by installing some addition on the lawn (Staircase and Walkway for the higher floor).  There was this woman who was chanting something repeatedly. Sounds scary at first but later President Obama praised her.

Then we switched into a hotel, me and ja sharing a room. Our relatives were there as well. As I moved to another exit,  it became the front house of Jds 5, Kaufu old house. Hs and big sis are going out to somewhere. I went back in and saw kids playing inside the pool. These are white kids and the water level of the pool is low presumably this is Malaysia and the low level is due to water rationing.

I rested for a bit before i realised I should probably place my jacket near my bag incase I forget.

I was contemplating to postpone me going home, instead I go and visit big sis in LA.

Innsbruck 3rd and last day.

This day.

Took sightseeing bus around. Head to castle. Castle was not really big, but they have a good showcase of medieval armors and weapons. I bought some marbles from there (I collect these small stuffs). The park was okay and the art in the museum is just soso. I think the highlight was the zodiac ceiling painting, where this painter drew a painting representing zodiacs/stars. It was beautiful. Other than that, I listened to BFM about polygamy, how this guy created platforms for guys and girls to meet and even a second wife dot com!

After Castle I head to the bergwisel, the Olympic place for ski jumping. It looks pretty but nothing much from that, maybe it would look prettier in winter. Went up and have another view of the city (though not as good of a view as Hafelekar of course).

After bergwisel I went back to the city, ate at stifskeller again. This time i ordered venison schnitzel. It was not really that tasty to me. Dry and tasteless. The jam made it tasty.

Head back wash clothes, and then head back out to the city (all by walking so I pretty much knew my way by then without using gps) to send postcards.

Go back and dry clothes, chill and head back out for dinner -  It was late already probably close to 8. Most of the shops are closing. I went to the oldest cafe, wanting to try their desserts but they were mostly sold out. I ordered a tyrolean soup (made out of barley, celery, potato, carrot and beef). It was simple and hearty soup. Ordered a chocolate milk with egg liquor for dessert.

I woke up, used the washroom and packed. I locked the door, head down and left the keys in the letter box. I started to make my way to train station. There,  I looked and confirmed my transport to Verona. I still got time to kill so I ordered a wrap from Mcd. I wanted the fish one but the guy gave me the chicken.

Next stop: verona

London and Liverpool

London by train

Walked to Minli heavy bag, super heavy and tiring. sweat like a pig.

when I reached, it was quite a lovely area.Talked to concierge. She passed me the key to her room and opened the main door for me. I went inside. Checked in.

i Rested for awhile before heading out. Didn't shower but freshen up.

when I walked out and ready to lock the door, I Couldn't! I got nervous and shit cos I thought I broke the lock. Stucked there for fifteen mins. then later I found out that there's a technique to locking the dokr. zzzz. Minli taught me

headed towards Tower Bridge. Bought chips along the way from a petrol kiosk. Yumsss salt and vinegar.

Took photo there and got this American Chinese solo backpacker asked me take for her.

Wanted to go in the hms ship but felt the price was a bit steep (not value for money)

Freaking cold as was windy and drizzling.

Went past Borough... Then head to the national gallery.. Was enjoyable. but at that time it was closing already so I only spent like 10-15mins inside.

i walked around that area a bit more. Checked out the leicester square, found where the book of Mormon theatre is. Saw some celebs at Leicester square. I think I saw Gemma arterton n bill nighy.

while waiting to see minli could make it for dinner, I drank a pint of beer at montiqueku.

Dinner had burgers and lobster. Wanted to jio Minli but she was occupied so I makan myself. Ordered burger and lobster. Freaking full! I should have ordered lobster only or the lobster burger.

Walked around and head to Big Ben and Westminster, saw the eye of London.

Head home. Got some drinks (ciders) and chat abit with Minli, showered, slept on uncomfortable couch. Didn't sleep well. Minli wasn't well also so didn't chat much with her. She made me green tea Haha.

Woke up, followed Minli to work. The path passing the canals was nice.

borough breakfast. Had pulled pork bread (not so nice), bought brownies/cookies and juice. Yums!

Took the train to battersea Park. Walk around and admire the tower and the park. Chilled and eat abit of my snacks before walking again. Took the bridge across and see the battersea tower from far.

ate bread near st George hospital , reads book, took a nap. This is the hospital where Beatriz works in.

Mormon lottery draw. couldn't get it. bought tickets instead. had dinner at Chinatown, some fried rice. Freaking full.

watched Mormon.. enjoyed it.

next morning packed and head out earlier to look for Agatha Christie stamps. went to three separate post offices with my heavy backpack but couldn't get the set. only managed to buy three Nia.

Paintings

I like Picasso la Ola (wave looks so real)
And Van gogh's courting couple in garden

Barcelona: 3&4th day

No Third day I went for another free walking tour, this time go for Gothic tour. Natalia the tour guide is freaking tall. I think like one head + taller than me. She's from Poland, studying Pastry here in Spain. She guided us through Las ramblas, then see some churches along the area, a brick on a building with Jewish letters (during Spanish inquisition) and how catalans are catalans first and never watch Spain International games. We ended the tour with a meal again this time a local specialty called Fideua. Similar to paella just that with noodles like bihun. After that I visited Palau Guell which was good. The architecture was beautiful. Very smooth transition from room to room, floor to floor. Rooftop is the highlight as usual for gaudi.

Ended with dinner at Quimet &  Quimet. It'd tapas with canned food. Long queue, but eat and go style so it's quite fast. Easy to order but have to be patient. The food is good. I ordered two bread serve and one assorted fish and vege. Yums if u asked me... Made a mistake with the drink. I tot Reserved is better but forgot blanc/bianco means white.. Lol. Anyway after that I bought a velvet cake from spice. It was good! Very rich. But I was quite full too so didn't enjoy it as much as I should have.  Ate it at the Plaza catalunya.

Fourth day, which is my last full day in Barcelona, I went as early as I could to Park Guell, but I was slightly lost. When I reached (probably 30-35mins later than I planned)  tickets were only for 1pm onwards. :l.  I walked around the park (no entrance to palace). Went up the hill and enjoyed the good view of the whole city of Barcelona.

After park Guell, head to the famous market Mercado de la Boqueria. Had a fake Burrito for five euro, drank a cup of juice and ate paella with Squid ink. Yums but full! Visited Picasso museum. Didn't enjoy the later paintings but his older ones were amazing,  those drawn during his early 20s. La Ola! (the wave) is fantastic. Wished I took a photo of it...

After Picasso, walked to the big fish, see the sea and then head to arc.  Wanted to visit a library (apparently very good design) but it was close. Realized that this area near the arc is also a Chinese area. Shopped in a asian supermarket. Chilled abit because was tired.  Decided then to head to Plaza espanya. There's some YouTube gamer conference going on. Would have gone if I knew about it.
Ordered a rose Amarino Gelato. Meh. But pretty..

Head towards Palau National, the modern museum. The fountain in front of it is huge and wow. Very wide... There were also a couple taking their wedding shots in front of the museum..

Walked to Olympic Park and look around. Took some photos. Saw two guys and a kid playing basketball. Went further up, they open up their stadium for public to have games/competition, which I think is a good way to keep the place alive and not a white elephant. I walked back to main road, took metro... Went and visit Casa mila. It was almost similar to Palau Guell. But good part is that they show designs of other gaudi buildings. Some are outskirt which I think would have been fun if I could visit one of these. Went to the rooftop, took loads of photos. Met a a Malaysian family, a couple doing PDA and a Chinese who don't bother taking good photo for me. :(
After Casa, decided to eat hotdog for dinner. Yums! Ordered malagueya (which I chose because it sounded from malaga, instead of ordering a sausage from Germany) -  * just Googled -  couldn't find the sausage by that name.. Lol

Wanted to try delacream but they closed by 930. Felt bad because spoke to the owner earlier and told her I will be back. She visited Malaysia before..

Bought more snacks from bonpreu for tmr's train to Paris. OMG the cake I bought was sooooooo good!

And that's it.!

Barcelona: Should blog more

Barcelona. Barcelona was great! I enjoyed the hostel, the best one at the moment that I've stayed in. It even has a rooftop for swimming/jacuzzi and suntanning. The room was comfortable. Very comfortable. Mar, the receptionist, visited Malaysia before and I enjoyed the conversation with her.

First day I set up myself and slept actually, before buying my ticket for sagrada. Met a Chinese girl named Jing and we hang out after my dinner. I went to La Flauta for tapas. The seafood is really fresh and tasty. A bit too salty on the Sardines and anchovies but I guess that's how they are like. Jing and I went to the port/jetty side and then walked back to the hostel (because it was late and the metro stopped its operation already)

Second day, went for free walking tour (by Carlito) on gaudi. It was interesting to learn on how cheapskate catalans were lol. And he mentioned the most beautiful lamp posts he saw in his life was the one done by gaudi, but I think it's OK. Not like super wow. The sagrada Familia also got like three sides, one tells the birth of Jesus, another is the death of Jesus. One more side haven't finish lol. Th r death I'd really interesting because they have 9 sculptures telling 9 diff parts of Jesus last two days. So the guide said they aiming to finish it by the gaudi's anniversary 2026. BUT they still need to build four more towers (total 12 = 12 apostles), 2 bigger towers (Jesus and virgin Mary)  and 1 highest tower (god).

After the tour we ate at a nearby cafe. I ordered the mixed cut. Met a German and a Kiwi. I am glad we talked. They were both traveling alone as well. We shared a jug of sangria. Yums!... The meat was good too. Tasty. When lunch was over, I went into sagrada. It was another Cathedral, but bigger. Lol

After sagrada I went back to hostel, chill and then head to the Palau de music for my orchestra. The hall was amazing. The decor, esp the ceiling. Beautiful. I fell abit sleepy from the first performance but the trio I like though I THink the girl made some mistakes. After that I head home... I think I ate panini for dinner. They have this fast food chain Pan &  Co so I tried that.

Dream of family

Dreamt of mom. She was in front of me and I asked her can I hug you? We hugged and it felt so real.

Leaving to Barcelona

I think it is fun here, I met people in the hostel like never before. It is quite nice because 5 persons in a room, you get to talk to them more. The is a more closeness life that as compared to 12 in a room.. 

My earlier post is not moving but anyway, on my last two nights in Italy, I went to the vatican in the morning,  then walked to Castel San Pietro, went to buy Gelato and head back. Had dinner with Do (viet) and Thomas (French) at Pane e Salame. It was good, I ordered mixed cut. Yummy! Do took a photo of us but didn't manage to add him in Fb.sad.

Last night I went to the acquadotti. It was funny because the tourist lady ask me to go a stop further than I should. I think she wanted me to walk from one end to the other. But we ended up walking along the highway, back to the first metro where we should get off.  It was amazing to me. I like it the acquedoct.

After that I bought this really delicious pizza from this random shop because I needed change. Head to pyramid, then Keyhole of Knights of malta, Circus maximus, Gelato and back home.

Rested before heading out again. This time to Spanish steps to eat pastificio, pompi Tiramisu and then walked around borghese Garden. Ended the night along the capitoline Hill area. It was great sight at night. Very nice!

Now waiting to board the plane to Barcelona!

Feel like shaving d..

the urge!

Lazy to move

7am. All awake but lazy to move cos it is cold...

Thinking of not shaving for a month.. See how long it grows. Lol...

Day4 waiting to go to train station

Innsbruck 1st & 2nd day

Upon reaching, my initial thought was "this is not the bus terminal, it is just the side of a street" (little did I know that the terminal was just behind me). I had to the tourism vegetable and purchased my innsbruck card. After that, I almost got conned by a gypsy. She have me a ride and asked me to sign a paper. Had she not asked me to sign I would have fallen for it already.! Upon realising, I gave her the flower back and said no. I moved to elsewhere to look at some brochures, and when I looked back, she was already gone.

After that I start walking towards my airBNB. I waited awhile before Jurgen tagged by his bicycle. He is a social worker (kudos to him). He showed me the place as Evelyn is not around. The place is huge. Big bedroom (which is going to be Jurgen after his current rental expires),with a balcony with awesome view of the mountains, kitchen and bathroom. I rested at home that night. Chill at home.

Second day, I head to the mountains by the cable car. The view from the top is amazing! You past the clouds and then you see how small the city is, surrounded by mountains. I spent like 2hrs up there. I met a group of Japanese ladies and asked them to help me take a photo. Saw a bunch of ppl climbing a higher peak. From here, you can see the range of mountains all around. So captivating..

I went down to the next station and did some sightseeing there too before heading back to the city. Did a walking tour around (fairly OK, I like the history of innsbruck ie the way the building were built to withstand earthquake and the directions (arrows)  for the pilgrims. Ate lunch at stifskeller. Had pork belly (Bavarian food) and it was awesome. Very satisfying!

After lunch, visited the church nearby with the amazing Tomb and statues around the Tomb. The church also have this interactive room to tell you the story of the King, quite creepy when watch alone. I think I also went up the tower today. Then head to Swarovski Park. The bus was awesome because there's free WiFi. While waiting for the bus overhead two sg teenagers talking. The park was OK. Not superb unless you are into crystals. I do like the giant n their park esp the reflection pool area. Wanted to buy something but don't know what girls like so decided against it.

Took the bus and stopped at terminal and then head out to look for dinner. Visited the terminal and did some grocery shopping instead. Don't rmb eating dinner so probably Makan yogurt for dinner lol.

Omw to innsbruck

So I got back to hostel around 1pm, took out my luggage (the room is packed, quite difficult to walk!).  Took my awhile to get my luggage out. Reorganised my bag,  locked it and move to the train station across my hostel. Was looking at where the bus stop,  after awhile I thought I asked someone.  Turns out this is not where the bus stops! The guy said it is a 5mins walk to the bus station. The time was 140 (my bus departs at 150). I was like Gg lo. This is so me. Haha.

Anyway I did my best in running with two backpacks.. Luckily I was just on time and the bus was late too. Later on when I reached innsbruck I only realised there was WiFi in the bus.. Ah well.

The journey to innsbruck is about 2hrs 20mins. The view along the way is magnificent la. You get the greens + the rows of mountains on both sides. Just Woww.

Once I reached, I got my innsbruck card, walk around abit and head to my airbnb location. At the information center, almost got con by a lady selling flower. Asked me to signed my name then I know shit jo so I gave her the flower back. Lucky me...

Anyway the house was amazing. Evelyn wasn't in innsbruck so her friend Jurgen came to pass me the keys and show me around the house.
I got a toilet, kitchen, balcony and a big room all to myself. Lol.

I unpack my shit, but by then (around 7/8) already quite tired. Managed to get myself to shower and then Zzz...

Last night and BMW/Suppen

On my also night, after coming back from Disneyland castle, I had dinner with Edgar, a Brasilian who works in London but currently travelling. He came from ibiza. We walked for a bit and decided to berdinner at a middle eastern restaurant. I had 3e Falafel wrap. It was slightly hot due to the red onions.

After that I packed a bit more before I crashed. Too tired. Woke up around 2/3am to shower and chat abit.  In the morning, ate breakfast, made another friend. Akiko san from Japan. She's going to castle today. Going to add her on Fb.

Packed my stuff and checked out. But before that, I just want to comment that my next door roommate was an European female, wearing I Think bra and underwear only to sleep. I could not see the bottom but the top was defo bra.

Anyway met Andy and his Gf, head to BMW together. The museum is thorough,  I am not a motor head but I still enjoyed the visit. I particularly like their innovative designs and futuristic ones.

Wanted to look for moms old BMW but couldn't find the model/year.

Went and see BMW welt after that (because their bigger souvenir shop is there). Bought stuff requested by Aileen. Welt was interesting because it is like a big conference area for selling BMW cars.

Head to viktuakmkt to try the munich soup kitchen. It's good.. Unfortunately I don't know what's inside because I just asked them to give me their best seller. Lol..  Bought Pretzel (salty), prefer Aunty annes and nordsee's fish(raw) sandwich. Not bad but abit too salty also.

Disneyland castle.

I lazy to write the whole name but it's called Neu schwein stein Castle (something like that). Ie the Disneyland castle. The ride there was great because you get to see the countryside of Germany, a lot of greens and solar power.  View is magnificent I would say esp when you are reaching the destination cos you get to see the Alps in the background.

Made friends with this Chinese couple mainly cos they cannot communicate in English fluently so I became the intermediary between the guide and them.  I didn't really mind (Avenue to meet new ppl). It was also nice that the guy runs (and asked me to join a run when he stays in Chengdu). I would go if there are ppl going with me.

The view from the castle and the Marion Bridge was spectacular. I think the green plains and the blue skies helped Alot. It's like a castle on top of a mountain among kampung kampung, no cities/towns nearby. The inside of the building was fantastic, better than the Residenz. The rooms were more beautifully designed and more elegant. Even the Servant's quarter got window to look out to a corridor, which has windows to look into the greeneries. The inside tour was really short. Couldn't really peek into the life or the feel of the building when it was used back then.

On the way back to munich, our guide,  Carlotta (charlotte) explained that the death of Ludwig was suspicious. It was claimed the parliament wanted to overthrow him and so they schemed with the doctors to try to declare Ludwig unfit to be a king. Ludwig tried to run away by boat but was suspected to be shot dead (instead of what they claimed as he drowned in the water after killing the doctor who walked with him). The day he died, the guards were asked not to follow him to the lake. Only the doctor was with him. The official account said the doctor tried to stop Ludwig from committing suicide but failed to do so. Unofficial story was that on that day Ludwig tried to flee by boat but was caught by the parliament and shot in a hut. The hut was taken off the next day. The doctor was believed to be killed after Ludwig because of the predicaments that he could be a witness etc. The guards of the castle sworn not to mention anything about the day Ludwig died till death. One of them beh tahan and told his daughter that gun shots were heard on that day.

Bayern 3-0

So I paid 10e for the game. Was it worth it?

The seat was 12 rows from the front, across the team's dugout. Tbf, I would have chosen the dugout side, had I know where it is located within the stadium! (tried finding info and msged bayern but no reply). I would have also bought the closer seat (row 5) but was worried there may be a fence or something (there weren't). Anyway row 12 is real close to the pitch already. Looks so small and short from up here. Lol.

Prior to sitting down, the walk from the station (Frotmaning) to the stadium was atmospheric. Endless human caterpillar walking towards the stadium in various jerseys numbers and names. I saw Kimmich, Alaba, Lewandoski, Boateng, neuer, ribery, Bastian, Muller.  Had a drink at Paulaner Garden (drink #2) before heading in.

The only thing that I really dislike was the smoking. Smoking everywhere. I think I smoked more than 50% of my life's second hand smoking here in munich. It's crazy...and irritating.

The game, in summary was one sided entertaining. Total domination by bayern. And they scored relatively early (under 20mins).  Look very dangerous each time they attack if not for their poor finish they could have at least scored another 2 goals. Managed to see Alonso play but you couldn't see him lobbing any killer pass in this game. Neuer was rarely required but when he did, he perform..

In the end, bayern won 3-0, first goal by ribery, which bounced into goal after the goalie took away some of the momentum. Second goal was by Thiago. Last one was Intricate passing and unselfishness of the bayern players to pass to one another until it reaches robben, which doesn't look like in a good position to shoot (though he is free), he managed to shoot a lobbed ball past the keeper...

Dachau

Second day was my day trip to Dachau. The tour guide is from. UK and supports Watford. Been to Malaysia 18yrs ago. Loved the Indian curry rice.

Dachau now is peaceful, quiet, and beautiful. But the history is more than horrible (I guess not as bad as other camp with extermination facilities, but still).

Most of the buildings and facilities have been rebuilt, mainly due to the world War. The whole place is originally an ammunition factory, turned camp as Hitler came to power.

The museum showcase the lives of the people then, how they were living (from the rich, to the religious,)  prior to coming to the camp. There were also many torture methods setup ie controlling temperature of the water at shower or room heater. Interesting was that they have a prison within the camp. One of the cell which is interesting is the standing cell, whereby the cell is so small that you cannot sit down. You ll be placed inside for 3 nights.....

They also have crematorium to burn the bodies of the dead (instead of digging hole and burying them and avoid diseases).

Their fence/wall is Damn keng. They have a 4-5m grass which anyone walked on can be shot, a moat, followed by electric tripwire and electric fence. Lol.

Would like to find out more about the camp through books and movie.

*I do wonder of Germans were taught on nazis and world War 2 in their school.

Super don't like

Everywhere you go sure got ppl smoke. Damn smelly like shit

First night

As I am writing this, it is 315am.

I left KL by KLM. Sat next to this Dutch guy who has a Muslim gf in Malaysia. His trip was to visit her. He enjoyed Malaysian food a lot (which I am pleased). Next to him is a sarawakian going to Berlin to meet her bf. I think the whole flight trip was better by the interactions we made.

My flight was at 1120pm. Prior to that, I had fried rice for dinner, noodles @ Plaza lounge.  In plane, I had two meals (rice and breakfast egg). Very filling..

Landed in Amsterdam around 6am. Walked to gate c18 to transit to munich. Was worried I could not get my Internet from flexiroam but in the end it managed to work after I redo the apn.

Landed in munich around 8+am. Took a train to the city center. Left my bag at the hostel (as it was only 10+, check in is at 3+)

Decided to walk around and look see look see the city. Did the Rick steves audio guide which is OK. Think the free walking tour should be better.

I tried their Pretzel with butter and chives (not sure got sour cream or not). It was good! Watched the Marian platz Center clock performance too

Walk walk a bit more (at this point I am really not hungry after all the late night  stuffing I had)... Visited the virtual market, would want to try bratwurst there too.

After that it was the synagogue, asamkirche, fraukirche (another church but better), then marionhof, platz, hofthau braus (Tavern/pub hall). Visited the residenz and Treasury. Amazed by the things there but it is just too big so towards the end it gets a bit repetitive and boring. My opinion is that some of the items are there just for display and may not be the originals (as it was party le destroyed during the war). But still worth to visit! I particularly enjoyed the aligned doorways and the paintings on the ceiling...

Head back to check in (bought peaches along the way) and shower! Haven't showered in one day!  Haha. Then after shower felt very lazy d. I think kl time about 12/1.

After lazing around for a bit, finally managed to get my ass to go to the fest. It was colorful and bright. Is definitely more than just a beer drinking event. They have roller coasters, space shot, bumper cars, games to play and win prizes. I walked around a hit before heading to the hofhau tent. It's crazy fun inside (best if you are here to soak up the atmosphere with someone else). I sat outside (no space inside), ordered sausages and a 1l beer. Beer is tasty. Not bitter but super smooth. Like got some kind of light sweetness, light creaminess aftertaste. Sausages are mehh.

Things I learn : munich very Christian city. Here and there you will see statues of Jesus or Mary. The Treasury also contained a lot of religion based artifacts. Within the city alone there are at least three popular churches for sightseeing.

Exhausted

It's 640pm local time here in munich but I am very exhausted already. I feel like going for the beer fest just to look see and grab dinner be fore I crash to sleep.

Haven't blog in awhile

Fabulous have not been reminding me to do shit... Lol

Moontrip

Met with moon and her friend (an Aunty from Singapore) at her hotel next to Avenue K.  Took them to roti valentine. I find it okay only.

On Tuesday, took a trip to melaka after having breakfast. It was a good drive and my first time taking a day trip to melaka. We reached around 130pm.most of the restaurant I wanted to visit were closed. We ended up going to Ole Sayang. It was OK. The asam was good but the chicken is too meaty and dry. We walked at jonker after that and it was great. My first time there. Saw and tried this local chocolate brand which was pretty good. Wanted to buy it then but decided to only buy when we are going back to the car (we were late, but they do deliver by mail I think). Moon bought some shirts for her friends. We tried the ghee hiang biscuits. I bought one box for her family. Hopefully they will like it.

We visited the stadhuys, youth at gallery and museum, St Paul and St xavier Church before driving back. We had local snacks at mv before I head off earlier to meet Cindy and Co. Dunno what was the major announcement...

Second day we hang around Petaling street. It was independence day of Malaysia so most of the shops were closed. We had breakfast at Lai Fong. Ordered beef noodle for moon. I had pork noodle. She bought a sarong and bag. I bought a hankerchief for myself.

After that we went back to hotel, drove to Pavilion for massage. It was good. Talked to the massage lady. She is single with a kid (27 yo). Works as a repairman. Hey Chinese is better than her English which I find rare. Anyway she is sorry and finds that she earns better income here and that the owner of Thai odyssey is a nice person. Hopefully she gets to open a parlour with her friends back in Thailand someday.
We ate at madam Kwan. Ordered satay, rojak and otak2. Both of them took photo with madam Kwan, who was there seating the customers.

We visited Putrajaya after that and I think she liked it. Spent about an hour there before we head to sunway for bkt. They head to fuego for drinks and I rested, before we visited Cheras psr mlm and dataran merdeka.

Last day, bought kuih and kaya roll for her. Gave the balance to Tricia. Went home and rested at home doing nothing.

27-29

Saturday -  workshop @ Nisha.  It was okay.  Then attended YEC @ Klcc. They started late. Good crowd and a lot of entrepreneurs wanna be. Good speech by tam Sri liew. I admire him since the days at sp setia. Takeaway from his speech was never give up your vision/dream, be honest, perseverance, never break your promise. Goh Ai chings Talk was relevant as she did not have the it background but that's her company's core business. But she got her bf/husband to support her from the technical aspect. Means I also need to find someone like that or I learn myself.

After that attended ian's wedding dinner. Picked up Lilin. Chat with Huansin, honseng and Lilin. Hseng is not working again lol like me. I agree with them that we should meet up more often, but not that easy la since everyone is working at different places and got their own commitment and life. Will try to organize hiking.

Sunday badminton, two couldn't make it so we were short by 1 (11 pax).  We didn't fully utilized the third court, occasionally others ended up using it towards the end lol..

Met with Amy in the afternoon to pass her rmb. Chatted abit but didn't jive as much.  But she was nice and accommodating. =)

Went out again after dinner with yingling. Just to chitchat.

Monday -  went and met dad's friend. Hooked him up with Kuanche. Tried poke bowl. Thought it was okay. The good part was the sauce with the fish. Otherwise nothing too great to shout about.

Bought porridge for yl as she was sicked and I ddy.

Gym with chew and diyana followed by Makan at q bistro. Caught a few new pokemon (venemoth, ma chop and jynx) Will be driving out later to meet moon

Dream

I got shot. I investigated this old guy and his wife shot me. I couldn't believe she could do that.

One of the bullet hit my chest part but I managed to shoot some do I survived. The one that hit my chest is smack at the center. Near the heart is.

I am like some kind of investigator for medical reasons one also. And me against the world type story.

26/8

Hiking with dad at lembah kiara. Good hike.

Breakfast at Taman gembira restaurant but didn't order anything.

Rest at home. Did some gardening works.

My long bean is growing! And got two eggplants now!

Head to mv. Caught some pokemons. Redeemed a boost juice. Sorted out Cpa stuff with Anne and Shafi. Left..

Donated blood. (yes). Jammed back to home. Rested and chilled before heading for dinner with Ks and hl @ Korean restaurant in uptown. Really good! And reasonable price.

23-25

Trip to Singapore
Met kellee and Denise. Kellee is our dad's Godbrother's daughter.
Our dad's God brother is called ah Tee. He passed away already. Wife is in penang with his two sons whilst his three daughters are down south, two in Singapore, one in Johor.

Kellee and Denise brought us for teochew lunch, sight see around Singapore and chill at MBS before we meet here older sister, (Ah Cee).  We met at clementi station/shopping mall, ate at Ichiban Sushi. After that drove us around. Saw this pedestrian jejantas with interesting design and is over 4/5 stories high.

Second day I woke up earlier to go to the gym. Did like 15mins of weight machines. For breakfast, they brought us to tiong Bahru market. I had dried Chilli fishball noodle, dad ate porridge. After that they brought dad to do his errands: police clearance, withdraw money from cpf and bank account update.

After that, I rested in the car while Denise drove us to simpang renggam. Denise was the designated driver over the three days I was in sg. In simpang renggam, we meet kellee's younger sister,  which I also dunno what to call her now.. Call her ah kim? Lol. Her husband runs a bak kut teh shop. Quite good the taste. When you look at the soup you wouldn't think that the taste is so strong. The soup is clearer than usual bkt soup. Ah kim ordered 3 pots for us, one dry,  one vege and another for meat...  Very full "lunch", it was around 230/3 already when we started eating.

Drove to jb, walked around a mall. Had blackball then go for a car wash before going back to sg. Another tour of sg inside the car. Home then chill.

Third and last day, went for early jog 8-9am. From hotel to Clarke quay to Esplanade and back. Nice run.

Had breakfast at this flat area with very delicious pork chop and curry

Then head to airport and Balik rumah

18/8

Inactive again

Sister left on Monday back to usa

I attended qigong class over the weekend, I haven't practice yet. Hope it helps me.

Went back to pg on Monday to Tuesday. Had yummy fresh milk and ah kim jiejie's cooking.stayed in good luck Inn with dad. Not bad. Comfy and cheap.

Attended do something good in the evening. It was interesting too. Will need to speak further with Kelvin and Cindy about their respective projects.

Weekend & Monday

Friday night: Yumcha @ Calvin's house. Bought us toothpaste souvenir. I love the chips they bought from marks and Spencer. Yum yum

Saturday morning: lunch with friends + Brandon lol.  Had Chan Meng Kee. Aunty upsell us roast duck and we fell for it. Lol.

Saturday night: Putrajaya marathon. Was good.  The compressor pants helped I think. I did a good average 7mins per km.  I skipped some water stop (good idea). I aimed for 2:30. I focused my mind on one goal/thing along the way. That helped to push me to run longer. I also stopped in between when I overran and try to reset my pacing. Towards the end, this fella pushed me (thanks!), he looked at me and did a signal of asking me to let's go. Nice feeling, esp since Bsn Putrajaya run was where I encountered the same thing as well.  Happy!

In the end, I finished 2:28. Awesome!

Sunday morning: badminton with friends + Ying Ling and Collin. Ying Ling is really good. Also we tried out the new place. Much better and Nearer. Lol we Makan after that @ dj clay pot chicken rice but I didn't eat cos got popiah at home. Yingling followed Collin later for second badminton session.

Sunday afternoon: went out with amy to teapress. It was full initially so we waited for 10mins for a table. We sat on the counter. They do not have as many tea range as tea and tatters but it feels like a higher quality setup. Anyway it was fun catching up with her. tinder hasn't replied my question yet lol

Monday: seafood noodle with chew, Cm Ks diyana. Then gauntlet, fifa x3 games,  followed by gym then fifa x3 games.  Played rainbow six siege the whole night after that. Lol

27&28

Went running. 1 hour plus. Good la. Felt good.  Chilled for awhile at the park. Thinking. :) very calming

On my way home, tried to help a lady with her pot, but could not do much.

-
Attended a mini press for these group of social ngo. Interesting exposure. Attended with fiona.

Had dinner at coco ichiban. Not bad but pricey. Will go back when I need carbs. Lol
-

Just submitted another proposal. This time is for the compost project for the TTDI market. Let's see how it goes.

Fruitful day

Met with Margaret, Azlan and fiona.

Margaret drove us to mbsa to see the composting done by maeko in the market.
Then we followed Mae back to their office.  See their different types of compost (due to different sources). Lunch at a mamak, which gave us Chinese mee goreng instead of their own Indian mee goreng.

Visited psr ttdi later. Spoke to Jenny's husband. Looks positive the way things are going.

Need to plan my trip.

Went to amcorp mall to buy some books for Brandon. Had A&W before going home

Comic con & star trek

Watched loads of trailers yday and snafu star trek. Star trek was OK. The bad guy sound have killed everyone but I guess that's not his aim. He wants to target the federation, not the people.

Today collected coffee but forgot to collect fruits lol. Need to set in the reminder as well.

Need to sort out the planks soon too

Had Avocado, eggs and cheese toast for lunch. Curry puff for dinner.  Snack a lot in between.

Didn't play that much game but been busy finishing up report.

=)

Busy day.
Badminton, Mamak,  laundry, late for tea, discussion with Nisha and Clinton, rest and chill,  movie.

barely eventful, yet...

Wed
Attended YPN meeting, shared my brasilian spinach with Anne and May, met up with Mindy to pass to her the Strategic Execution info.

Thurs
Attended Bank Rakyat's open house. Saw someone who looked like Amy and decided to ask if thats her. It was~... but got the msg too late. She left already :l. Had a light meal there (did not want to stuff myself too much). Dropped Sharon and Ee Feng back at their respective offices before I head to Challenger to book the badminton court.

Fri
Rushed the proposal submission and sent it out before lunch.

Attended a mini cooking talk at TTDI, noise is too loud so could not hear the presentation. Saw Low Wee Wern (she does not look as built as on TV, wears specs too)

Dinner with CY, LaySee, HernYeen, Nick, Jay and Eefeng @ Thai BBQ OKR. Not bad place but OMG Friday jam pls kill me. stuck in Kerinchi for about 30-40 mins. crazy shit.

Passed CY my long beans.

Sat
Met with Nisha, talked for 2 hours about the proposal then followed on by other topics etc.  I think she is overreacting and I believed that she could have done something much earlier / or if other Transition TTDI felt as strongly as her, would have told me about how they felt then.

Anyway, I do think it is not the main point. I do align with her on how it should be done ie get the core members to participate.

Hopefully CPA can buy her school garden project

Collected bib from TCM, then chilled at home.. watched Aces go Places 5.

Drinks with Ping, good chat for about 2hrs+. Interesting friendly lady. :) Passed to her my long beans,.. still got few more to clear!

Had dinner at OK after that

Came back, relaxed with Evovle and just surf here and there and arranging tomorrow's activity

Busy busy

Felt so occupied the past few days
Monday -  ate at bangsar with sister.  Saravanan bhavan.  Then had ice cream for dessert

Tuesday attended my workshop, walked around for lamp (decided to repair mine)  and had Chai bar for lunch

Arranging for weekend badminton

i m up!

it is 430am and i am already up an running! mainly because i slept at 10ish yesterday.. super good sleep. must be cos i was damn tired... lol so goood....

had a dream about.. school friends, cinema, parking lot and bad people. something like a scheme/conspiracy theory going on. i even dreamt of malin akerman lol. she was trying to infiltrate the enemy's base but was caught and tortured.. did not die though i think.

anyway, thinking of organising weekly badminton, will see how that goes

plans for today
- ikano - price checking
- youtubing how to do videos
- collect coffee
- collect fruit waste
- go running in the evening
- eat healthy lunch
- read
- do proposal

Sg Chilling /KKB

Travelled to Kuala Kubu Bharu for hiking on Saturday morning. Tagged along with Eefeng and her friend and friend's friends. Most of them are working in Western Digital.

We met up at a condo in Mont Kiara, then Ee Feng drove us from there to KKB. I did not know it was a dam area. The view was great. The hike was a casual jungle trail, not challenging at all, though there are a lot of river crossing which will get your body wet (up to waist height).

The end destination was a waterfall. The water in the waterfall is supercold! like 15 degrees? I did a jump off a mini cliff. Fantastic feeling. But to drive 1 hr there for this casual trail.. I think meeting my expectation was a bit off. I thought it was a challenging trail (hence it will take us 7am-2pm hike).

Anyway, we ended the night with korean fried chicken and military soup (next time must order this soup with ramen, damn nice).


---

This morning played badminton with chew, diyana, tricia, terry and catherine. i sucked. lol. have to play more to improve!

afterwards chew invited us back to his house to makan leftover raya food. yummy! filling also. i bought avocados and cheese from Hero Market, for lunch next week.

i also went and helped out at Urban hijau. just carrying the cart from woodchip area to compost area.

met Mr Lee. (staying in haji openg)
---

giving in

i need to be more in control of myself :s

When you think too much, u will dream too much

I dreamt about Nick, Nick's mom, Sam,  my computer table, ttdi and...  'her'.

Plans for today :
Delivery plants
Transfer green leaves to garden
Get ready for meeting
Think of things you can do for composting
Read!

interesting statistics of my blog.

people opened and viewed my blog more than 500 times last month!

I have international viewers?!? lol

Job offer

I got an offer to help with my ex co, JCM, for a period of 7months. the pay is OK for the expected hours of work, but I decided to reject them. This is because:-
1) I do not want to be tied down to a particular activity
2) Pay is OK but not persuading enough for me say SUPER-YES
3) I am interested in the composting project and would like to 'devote' more time to it
4) Yes I can time manage so I can do both JCM and the project at the same time. BUT do I want to do that to myself and reduce my "me time"? The answer is No.

After 8 months of not working, I am happy with my routine of nothingness. Though there are days that I am not particularly positive, but that does not make me regret on my decision. In fact, with the recent networking sessions, I am actually pleased that I met people whom may help me pursue "entrepreneurship".

Anyway, this is what I think is best for me and I am sorry that I have to reject Janslyn. Given another time ie without this project filling my time, I would be more than happy to help (justified by my guilt from rejecting her)



sigh.


plans for today

-do photocopy
-go book badminton court
-buy shuttlecocks
-MAYBE buy speaker
-have call with Janslyn
-collect photocopies
-buy lunch
-finish Fiona's financials

Morning

Woke up on the 2nd floor at 5am, sleeping on yoga mat with the fan turned on. Felt awkwardly comfortable. I dozed off after my 17mins of "yoga", around 2am.

Head back to my room to sleep on a proper bed. Woke up for the second time during the morning, around 730. Head back up to second floor for morning exercise.

Decided to do my cereal mix (finally).  Did some googling and started working on my standard almonds and cashews, before trying to toast pumpkin, oats, and walnut. Turns out okay! Will taste it tmr!

Janslyn msged me to ask for a quick chat.   She said she wished that I will start the assignment soon. :s honestly I don't mind helping but i hope she doesn't need me. I think I am so used to my current lifestyle that it's weird to go back to corporate world. Lol

12/7

Nothing much to do today. Supposed to go ou with sister but she decided not to eat a lot, so I decided not to go. Had potato fries and some kuih kammo bought for lunch.

Took a nap in the evening, then did some reading before heading to mv. Ate porridge and the talk was so so only.

Played Evolve with chew and nick.

Did some work on spreadsheets, exercise a bit in the morning... Shall continue to exercise more!

Monday

Met with fiona at Starbucks to run through her figures. Ordered a rm18 drink..  Really zzz

Tried to collect fruits from Juicy bites but they threw it out already. Told them I will come on every Monday. Hope they rmb

Collected coffee ground from frisky again. I think this is the fourth time already. So far so good!

What else? Portugal won euro. I am finishing arkham Knight. Ate popiah over the weekend, put the compost into the planting area next to eggplant. Ate Texas chickens honey butter biscuit

Dream and feeling anxious

I am in my car, parked outside frisky goat. Somehow I got a sudden anxious feeling. I just thought about how we should pay the people who provide us the waste, or that they may demand something in return. Lol.

Had a weird dream about attending weddings with friends and ex colleagues. Guo miao was in my dream. I wonder how is he now.

9/7

Composting bins done!

Speakers arrived but something wrong with the subwoofer so I returned it. The process seems easy. Just send the package to a nearby Mailbox Etc with the Order Return form.and that's it!

Played evolved. Fun!

Zombicided

Tried this zombicide board game with Ccw nick chew and hl. Hmm prefer dead of winter but this one is good too. A lot of planning required as well, fun part is you get to level up. And each hero got different abilities, just like dow. We played four games which I think is a lot. Wanted to pay a shorter faster game towards the end but ah well.

The game is fun when it comes to killing zombies, not as stressful as dow since you need to roll the zombie die and see if you got bitten. This one is fairly simple and easy. You roll and kill. Unfortunately for hl, he has a shotgun that requires him to roll a 4+ with two dice, yet he failed to do it four times (that's eight dice) in a row. Crazy.

We played with a lot of mistakes in interpretating the rules, as well as a lot cheating lol.  Overall I give the game only mildly entertaining.

Family gathering

Gathered with cousins yesterday.

Played with the kids, played game of life, ball, monopoly.

Ate a lot too. Siu yuk, pie tee, ice cream, cake, fruits, garlic bread, pizza.

So full that I didn't eat much for dinner.

Going out later for gaming session with Ccw, hl, Nicholas and chew.

Very lazy day.

freaking dreams

first one is about some cursed room, with a coffin lying front part part facing down, on a dug ground (but the ground is actually a wooden floor and the shape fits the coffin nicely)
then we are suppose to go in and contain the 'demon', but the demon transferred itself into a poster and we had to chase and contain the poster..

second one was more normal.. we were in this shopping mall with shop lot sized restaurants/cafe (two stories, similar to one city). got some arkham knight fighting (played too much lol) and then we yumcha at mcd. there was also a side story about an investigator/detective wrongly accused a guy and he did some gta shit (stealing the culprit's car and crash his own car) whilst he is trying to clear the situation. towards the end, we had a friends gathering at mcd. i parked my car abit far, then when i reached my car, theres a bunch of young female students on my car studying.. i was like ???. they moved, but then i also realised my car looked different. Then I saw that my car got pimped, and i need to pay like RM450/485k. i was like wtf? new kind of scam??? zzzz kafaii and ailin stayed with me (thanks!) and then i checked my phone, realising they actually sent those photos and tried to call me about pimping it earlier... but of course i did not say yes. so i kept thinking to myself silence does not amount to acceptance. lol

woke up and decided no more sleep today

Zoo trip(4/7/16)

Visited the zoo today with sis,  Brandon, Jojo, ahleng jiejie and family
First time going there since primary school or kindergarten lol

The bird show was good but they should be more tourist friendly by not showing Malay. It reduces the entertainment level when they switched languages in between.

The was the binturong. Quite cute. I don't mind having one as a pet.

Then, we visited the aquarium. I think the aquarium feels like those tanks in Chinese seafood restaurants. Practically a number of those fishes can and are served as food lol.

Food and drinks are slightly overpriced, not to mentioned that the state of the zoo is poor. Many broken floor tiles makes it prone for people to trip over.

We also managed to catch the panda. They stay in this cool center. Cool as in cold. Damn lazy. Never do anything one except chilling n pooing. After poor straight away chill!

I think my favorite animal that I saw there was either the penguins or hippotaumus

After the zoo, we went to publika for lunch. By the time we reached it is already 3, so basically tea time and lunch. I had chili pan mee. Didn't eat dinner later, just snacking here and there.

Elise and Brandon tried the dinosaur ride (actually using oculus rift).

Played sniper with Ccw and then I played arkham Knight.

5/7

bermakan lunch with ks at DJ airconditioned restaurant.. talked about QMDJ, will see if it works for him

ran in the morning, that was good

in the morning after running, did some investment work, read the newspaper.

withdrew money from affin to maybank

attended JY's short workshop tonight.

uploaded photos to FB

played arkham knight.

Update

Haven't been blogging lately so some quick updates
1 sis is back with Brandon. Sleeping with me in my room
2 I bought a lot of stuff.  New running shorts, some skittles for Futsal, lunchbox and chopping board
3 started to play arkham Knight, it's GOOD!
4 haven't been exercising so I should have gained some weight already
5 been eating Alot also, and caving in to my cravings ie eat nasi lemak, drink chatime, eat meat... Snack...
6 got craving to spend spend, now thinking of getting speakers... Lol
7 my bank acc is officially insufficient. After 7 months of not working. Now I need to inject some money from my fd.. Mainly cos of the course I took earlier this yr
8 my plants,  those Yukky gave me, are growing well. Thank God!.
9 trimmed my pumpkin too
10 should start picking back my reading habits again, and soon!

25&26/6

Saturday: helped out at the diyana Hall with the town hall meeting for ttdi in relation to the new property development at rimba kiara park

After that, wanted to eat something.... Wanted to order prawn mee at Yong len (which I always do), but Aunty looked super busy and unhappy so I ordered char koay teow instead.

At night, Yumcha with Yukky at Artisan.

Sunday. Kammo made pietee. Yums. Dinner at Pho vietz and followed by inside  scoop ice cream (choc).

24/6

Half day gone. Did some articles reading,  checked and bought some steam games, followed the brexit status (they voted to leave)

Not much after that.

Updated:
Dinner with hl Ks and Sy at nandos. Finally managed to satisfy my nandos craving. Had it since few months ago. However, will not recommend people to go to TCM's nandos again. Poor service and it is warm, not cold due to reliance on mall's aircon instead of installing their own

After that was Fluffed with hl Ks Sy and Ccw dee. Ordered pooh bear. I liked it way more than others, maybe cos the waffle is way crispier (my theory is that it is because they drizzle the honey and toast it like that.. Honey hardens = crispy)

Played militia, infested Planet also. I like both. Super sanctum was more dull... But enjoyed it nonetheless.

23/6

Bought green man gaming bundles.. Didn't get any good games. Wasted $$$. The best was  of duty black ops.

Played fifa Yday with Ccw and chew. Lost both games to Ccw but won both games against chew.

Chew asked me to be his best man. I m honored and willing to do it, just don't like the responsibilities lol

Visited the bazaar, ordered popiah and briyani gam. Not sure if I got it from the right stalls but the popiah wasn't good.  Briyani the rice was good. Damn full.

Chatted with Tseyee, will be having dinner with her in ampang Korea town next week. Excited!

Need to arrange dinner with some other people as well.

Anyway yesterday attended a meeting with azlan, Clinton and the maeko ppl. Very interesting proposition. And the feeling I got post meeting was like this felt like a dream ie I was discussing about this with khen last week. Crazy!

Tired

Been feeling quite fatigued lately. Not sure if it is cos of the food intake, the time I woke up, or my time spent sitting in front of the monitor. Lol.

Been getting back to exercise now... Not easy but doing it!

Gonna go run later

New monitor

Bought myself a new monitor today, just to replace the TV. Not use to the smaller fonts due to the higher pixel.

Collected coffee grounds from frisky goat.  Gave it to urban hijau.

Need to think of a better collection plan for all those that I have contacted.

Dream

Very game or series kind of feel. So there were group of protagonist, the good guys. Mainly a group of young adults/ teenagers

They travel around using the sewage. But got this time they were attacked by supernatural forces. Have to hide around. The are two locations. One is inside a building /with vault and another is outside /forest area.

The last I. Rmb was that the enemy attacked the good guys (me included)  at the forests and killed some local people there. We managed to hide ourselves. Then the police came and caught us. We were caught because we got some super powers also. Very weird. So some of us used the sewages while the family dug new tunnels all around and disappeared back to the vault. In the vault some of the members were missing and they were looking for them, with the police. One of them was hiding inside a dark lift without much light. From afar, he looks like someone else. He asked me to turn on the light which then reveals his face to me. He made me keep it a secret. I continue to search got the other missing person.

Turns out she was stuck with her body inside a saw (should be she was stuck there cos she was trying to hide) . We had to help to move her from inner the vault area to the outside. This was when we saw the slithering snake moving about under us! We decided the run faster but it was too late. The snake broke out and up! Everyone dashed and scattered. My right shoes came out and I was running imbalancely. I decided to throw my other side as well but it turns out to be a bad move cos running there on socks was a bad idea. Too slippery.

Anyway we had to move around to evade the snake,  boss who turned into human,  carrying his two pet, a dog and a cat.

End. Woke up cos I got no other place to run and it was gg

A week in June 2016

Yes! Done my bazi for first person and it was quite accurate according to the person! Delighted! Though i have to say it took me close to one week. I know I will improve in time.

Other updates : upgraded my phone with 64gb microSD card and registered as a Liverpool  member (to purchase tickets) :)

7/6
Ate hayaki for the first time. Decent price for office workers. Tasty too. Will go back to try their nasi kukus ayam. I ordered nasi kerabu ikan.  This was with chew,  Ks and Sy.

We followed up with Miru's dessert cafe, ordered and ate rocher toast. Delicious. The water (infused with some tea) is tasty too. Lol.  Then Yumcha with hl at the new Mamak next to miru.

10/6
Met khen in the morning, then lynnsay in the evening, followed by efe at night for dinner. We ate at paddington. Surprised with their range of choices. I enjoyed my salmon (maybe their beef patty wouldn't be that great that's why I didn't order their waffle burger, not to mention their waffle looks like the pancakey kind of waffle) Then Yumcha with hl and Ks at Ming tien.

11/6
Spend time improving the garden. Met Esther. Met Cassie (who lives nearby). Managed to setup a frame for Raised bedding and continued with the Composting area (decided to do an upgrade ie 4 bins instead of original 2)

Helped Ccw cut his garden, when his parents stopped by the house to collect letters. Had brunch with them at the fish noodle place in atria. At first I thought it was the xo fish head noodles but it was another shop. Tasty.

12/6
Met sc in the afternoon at Fluffed. I find Fluffed's Lavender ice cream not strong enough... After that had Vietnamese pancake for lunch.

Fifa (turkey 2-1 Sweden, atletico 2-2 psg) with Cm.  Then gym. Felt good. Shower and then dinner with the guys. Kf jeng.

13/6
Met up with Yingling, got tea leaves from her from nepal. Talked abt deep stuff ie relationship and starting a family.

14/6
Plans for today. : do wood,  clear water out of tarp, meet Nicklaus, go mv, buy mini box from aeon big

Gardening & minli

Friday -  one of the worst thunderstorm /hailstorm struck bkt Jalil. One of the buildings there got badly damaged and many trees were struck by lightning, some were just blown apart by the strong wind.

Sat
1- Michelle, Rachel, Dickson, Joey and me gathered and did what we can at the garden. We managed to separate a pallet, saw some of the pieces and place them on the ground we dug. The remaining pallets are with me at the moment.

2- lunch with Ccw, Ks n Deanna at Chan Meng Kee ss2. The siu yuk really do crispy! Crunch crunch sound.

3- dinner at Sam's pub. The chicken wings were good. Actually from most of us they commented the food were generally good. Can go back and chill next time. We headed over to nicks and played spyfall. I lost the game when I was a spy. After that we just chill and chat for a bit

Sunday
1- met with ttt n bacon at village park. Talked about how the new generation should play a more active part in keeping the connection with the older generation and other cousins alive.  After that we tried tsujiri with ttt's friend lynnsay. She is an unit trust agent for Kenanga. Apparently she got 100%+ return over 5yrs. Have to think how she got that. Perhaps more trading  or speculation stocks could be the reason.

2- study a lot of bazi today

3- played last remnant, almost at the end d but final boss too cheating.

I dream dead people

So we were staying in this house(house#1), and there is a connecting house next to it (which is also occupied by us) and opposite (just like, say about 20 steps away)  three is another house (house#3), also occupied by us. Big group.

Anyway there were friends and family in the dream.

And when I walked out of house #1, lingering at the space between 1 & 3, I saw 3yee. She looks healthy. But she didn't talk. No one else saw her except me. And throughout the dream I think this happened like 1-3 times.

There were shops facing this river, we ordered drinks and they allow us to use their mugs, but we have to return it to them later (this shop got no tables and chairs for you to sit on), so most of us ordered and chill next to the jetty.

Ccw ordered this pancake ish snack, whereby the pancake material wrapped around block of chocolate. And because the pancake is hot, it softens and melts the chocolate. I took some from Ccw to taste.

Lacking motivation

Another weird, long, plotful dream yesterday. 

Finished binging Love series by Judd apatow. Good but I hate those frustrating part where gus tries to become an idiot, throwing things away. I think in the real world ppl would just suck it up first, absorb until they are able to stand in their own, then only they will fight for something they want. Arggh. Thank God I can ff those scenes lol

I've been watching fresh off the boat as well. Not bad. I think both love and izombie is better though. Again, I think the kid is over exaggerated. Talking like that and demanding things from parents, being Asian -  you don't do that. Lol

Anyway plans for today is to clean the buntings, buy nails and maybe go and clear more weeds.

I will try to finish up my reading lol

Lazy

I don't know why but I have been feeling restless every morning after I wake up. And I am not sleeping any later than usual. A good 6-7hrs of sleep. I know why, I have these weird long, plotful, gloomy dreams. But I don't know why I am having these dreams.

Oh I am lazy cos I haven't been doing any exercise.

Anyway big day. Need to go and pay the gardener to cleanup the place.

Dream

I got a cub bear, and two puppies as pets in my dream. :d

It was a very weird dream. There was this part where I was listening to a radio on how to train pets, they asked the listeners to pee while walking.. Lol

I felt so exhausted after the dream. Still lying on my bed.

Been binging izombie. Not bad. I like it. Soso for fresh off the boat though. Not as great as I thought it would be..

29/5

Class ended.. But I ended up signing for two more courses and one conference. :l and books!

Prediction

He made a Prediction based on bazi on the USA election, if it is Hilary v trump. Based on the date the election closes, it is a bad day for Clinton as her own DM element is appearing in the month, but it ended a day before the election last day. And trump's own element is appearing right after Clinton's disappear. Hence it will seem like Clinton is winning and at the very last minute, trump will triumph. :l scary.

The missing key is that if Hilary gets his husband to come out to help her in her race! Or they push the day of closing to a day earlier.

Let's see

27/5

Another class day,... Finished early and head to tmn desa for dinner with Tse Yee. She said it is going to be late dinner but I decided to leave early before the jam starts, around 5+.

I reached gravy baby around 540 or so and she arrived around 740 lol.  The pies were soso, and the beans were too sweet! Waffles definitely not good (soft, not crisp or chewy, not thick)

We talked about bazi and it was fun reading hers and her family's.

2 things

One is good tasty roti canai can be eaten on its own.

Two is met with Kitmun and Nancy for dinner at Ara Vietnamese at dj. Decent price for not bad food.  Good catching up. Looking forward to meeting them again.

21-24/5

Attended bazi class till Yday. Not bad. Met Mindy, a 30+ lady who is in IT. Friendly. She recommended the qigong which interests me. I will take that after this course is finish. She ajak gave me some tips on my Qi men. Apparently my guardian is one that as long as I think about it, it will come true. But I need the Qi (so hence I still go for the qigong)

Met up with Jolene n Ccw for dinner on Saturday at panchos in mv. Collected the hiking gears from her and passed it to Tricia.

Met and followed hl n Joanne around the wedding convention. Learn a thing or two about things to ask from the studio. Since it was the only one that I attended from start till end, I can say that I really like inovia. Being a pg company mates it more attractive for me too.

Went and teman hl for late dinner Yday at hayaki. By the time I reached, he finished his food already . because the price was not cheap as well, I decided not to order anything and dropped by at devis after that for milo + +roti.

This morning did some investment update. Seems like export stock is got once again, but Jcy is not doing too well.

20/5

Supposed to go to kl with mini but she got to go for medical checkup so I went alone.

I did some gardening maintenance ie put in new soil for one pot and placed browns and greens for another. Hopefully my mint will survive better now.  My Kangkung grew big! Like I was amazed. So suddenly. Wonder can eat or not lol

Donated my blood today. It took about 30 mins, which is longer than I expected. Next time I hope I can rmb.

Ate lunch at boat noodle with kf. Ordered 4 bowls. I like the beef more than the chicken one. Talked about doing own businesses.

Ffk Angeline from frisky goat cos I was late and she said better to meet another time.  :(

Came home, sleep for like an hour. Not sure if I was tired or due to the blood loss. 
Bought a lottery ticket 2023. Will need to go to two more (the are three 'brands' in Malaysia) to ensure I cover all.

Wanted to collect waste from Juicy bites but they were occupied so I thought I ll find them another time. Don't want to make them entertain me at that moment

Well, my date forgotten about our dinner plans, so I ended up waiting from 6 - 740+-.  We had briyani at fiercer. Not bad. Wouldn't mind going there again. But very filling. The rice.

After that I accompanied her to do some grocery shopping at bigs. Was fun. Will probably let her try golden Graham if sis buy back again next time

Went drinking with Ks hl Calvin and Amanda at 1mk. Get to listen to uncle's band again. Awesome. Talked about Calvin's earphone, trip, colleague and my potential dates.

Went back around 1130. Played a bit of borderlands and watched Saoirse ronan's utube before I Tido.

19/5

Watched Xmen, I liked it though I guess purists may not like it as I  don't think it follows the comic story line. But I enjoyed it. Action packed throughout

Watched Liverpool lost to sevilla. Very sad. Could have been a different result. ;( I don't know why they were lost/missing/aimless after sevilla's first goal. They are not like that usually, not one bit.

Cleared up the remaining buntings at the garden. Wanted to pass it to free tree society but they weren't open. I called eat shoots and roots after that but they don't need it. So I threw it into my rubbish bin. :l

Ate mantao and mui chai pao for lunch.

Lodged a complain to dbkl to ask them to clean up the garden area, as per what the tennis community wanted. I was surprised at how easy it was to lodge a complaint. Collected fruit scraps from Juicy bites and delivered it to uh.

Watched a bit of idiot abroad at night and played a bit of borderland before I sleep. Lol

Penang trip

15/5
Drove to penang ard 1+. Reached ard 5+. Decided to come back to visit kuma.

Had dinner with 2yee, kaima and uncle at gurney Plaza. Ate Hakka recipe. Not bad. Went shopping with 2yee and kaima. Paid for them and went home

Watched Liverpool draw with wba. Ibe scored a good solo goal. Hope he stays with Liverpool

16/5
Woke up closed to 9! Lol amazed at how long I slept. (I slept around 1?). Anyway visited ah Kim jiejie at her shop in downtown. She cooked for us.  Damn full.

Visited my kuma after that. Stayed and talked for about two hours (at least).

Then at night went out and meet the hair dresser Aunty and her daughter at mcd. Quite awkward but Okla. I guess that's a good experience. At least I think we are both open to talking lol.

Drank fresh milk egg for dinner then read on bed till late.

17/5

Bought durian for kammo, hl and ah May jiejie. Delivering them in my car later.

Bought 5 for 130. I think if they are good stuff it should be value for money.

Sit and chat  with 2yee and kaima for awhile. Left there to go visit mom for a bit. Came back, pack and went to meet boon ping for lunch. It was nice to see her again. She look pretty much the same as before. Ate at this malay food stall inside a flat.

Caught up with her... Her studies (finishing in 2017) and work.

After that, collected the durian and drove to ipoh, bought the 3 layer biscuits then back to kl. Reached home ard 615 pm. Gained weight. ZZ Now is ard 68.6kg..sien mou.  Doing some exercise now.

Trivial

I feel life is trivial. Nothing is too important or too big to fail or miss or lose.   Life goes on with our without these items.
Even if someone dies, even if I died, people may mourn for a while but in the end, everyone will try to move on and resume their life again. 

So why do we get so involved in puny and minuscule matters? Human emotions. And arrogance.maybe sometimes you are trying to be helpful but I believe mainly it is the two factors mentioned above.

Keep quiet and ignore the meaningless arguments and "discussions"

13/5

Morning jam at penchala link to kl. Omw to get my passport renewed

12/5

had a dream yesterday --- i rmb got yumcha with cady and some other ppl in a far place, somewhere nearby a new mall which i dont recognise..

there is also this living room with surround sound system - there were two systems though.. dont know why., and they even have VHS player. lol

then i was walking around this park/ garden.. which was an indoor living room/park - but they decided to make it outdoor. i was walking around it, looking at the grass and plants and notice that the grass here is different from those outdoor.. (maybe i am having this park dream sequence because i went to the garden yesterday)

there was also an earlier part of the dream where there were a bunch of us gathered in a room, playing some kind of game for awhile, together.



anyway liverpool drew 1-1 with chelsea yesterday, late benteke equaliser. sunderland managed to survive the relegation battle by beating everton 3-0

thinking of going back to penang this sunday.. will calll kumar etc to confirm later.

11/5

Fixed my air con today cost me about rm400

Went to the garden and did more weed clearing. I think it will look even better in a week's time. Did for an hour or so.

The gardener down quoted me to rm75,lol I thin cause he saw me clearing on my own and most of it is done. And I am maintaining it with the tarps.

With all the weeds I cleared today, Hopefully it will dried up on top of the other weeds and become mulch,to prevent more weeds from growing.

Read another two chapters of 1984, quite an easy read.

Watched coutinho's journey to Liverpool yesterday night. It was good. Get to know him better.  I like these type of videos, getting to know the players.

Played last remnant. I think it will be the next game I will finish.

9/5

fixed my car today.
- send for service + fix the sound behind (absorber problem) - total cost- RM900+

8/5

Yesterday I realised my fm game got bug.there is no europa cup! I found out going into the third season, when I qualified for champions league playoff but I do not have any European match up to November. Then I realised Wth.... Lol...  Decided that it is best to uninstall the game before I sleep.

Ate dinner with Kaufu etc. At tropicana city mall. Eat until Damn full. Talked to hs about going to Liverpool. Can't wait! All depends on ah peen koko

Afternoon nothing much.... Didn't eat a lot yesterday! Should have ordered two roti canai from Raju! Regret.. Xx

Now I am waiting for car to be fix. Absorbers cost 700+ =(.

7/5

bought nuts today at the bakery shop with Tricia. Play FIFA with Christopher, I ended up winning both games. First game was good cos he didn't have a shot in target.

At night, dinner with Ccw Tricia and CM at pho vietz in Atria. Freaking rain and dinner jam caused our trip from Ccw house to dj to take about 30mins +
Crazy.

The food at the restaurant was good and value for money also.

After that bought chips and head over to Cm house. Played steam using my surface. Quite smooth Tbh. Am glad I found out I can use it as a portable friendly party game platform

This morning I went hiking with Jolene and her friend. Did one hour +. Felt good! Ate at Raju and back home. Stop by at the garden to remove the water on the tarp.

6/5

Met with rain at paradigm mall to explain to her the fengshui class that she missed.

Reached home ard 2, slept for 20mins and then read jo nesbo' bats. Almost finish reading it already, in less than a week. Gj!

Met with hl Ks Sy Tricia Cm, chew diyana at kayu ss2. My roti canai wasn't hot... Sad sad. Chat abit.. Quite good catch up.

Need to plan for Archery tag later today.

Dinner tonight with Tseyee.. Week week at Boulevard

5/5

Went running, then did a lot of reading throughout the day, which is good.

I am amazed at how easy it is to read a fiction than other articles or books. I mean I know fiction is more interesting to read, but just that it is so much smoother.

Started fm again. Not proud but yes that's what happened.

Things to do today,  pay credit cards,  call rudy,  and thinking whether to attend the gold coast free room thingy

Running

Feels good to run again. Did 30mins at the park. Did some thinking as well

3/5

Today I brought the fruit waste from Juicy bites to urban hijau. I thought it was a good thing but uh was more strict in terms of what they were receiving. They want to spec no time sifting through the pile to segregate the usable and the rubbish,but I can't do much since I am not the one dictating what goes into the bag.

Went to the garden to relocate the tarp and to place the new one.

Played another mission of tropico

Atletico won bayern on away goals

2/5

Morning received a call from Shir lik. Met up with her and ck at hayaki. Did a little catch up. I didn't eat anything though.

Came back, did some online, then read a bit before I rest myself in my room till 1/2.

Went and collect fruit waste from Juicy bites at 330pm. Waited till 4 only can collect because the worker was occupied with work (only one person). The food there looks reasonable. I bought a passion fruit Greek yogurt to try.

Drop the stuff at home and drove to Kepong5, to view the show unit and discuss with Amanda on the plans. Good news is that there is an additional 7% discount. Means the net price now is 516k. Better la I think. An additional car park too! Quite happy with it now.

Came back, ate the leftover kuay chap for dinner, with pumpkin soup. Also fixed the Composting materials into the bin.

Played till 11, slept all the way till now

Dream
Had a dream which involves friends, strangers and family. Work office is the air itam house but inside looks modernised. The is also mrt where I changed my pants in the toilet and there was a Thai /sweet lady as a guard at the mrt entrance.

We were waiting to go for lunch /dinner. I think I ordered some fruit juice or something from the bus driver. Hl was there.

When we were going for lunch, I went on my own cos I got other things to attend to first. I went and move my car educated was parked inside a temple. After reparking my car, I decided to walk to the hawker where we were suppose to meet.

That's all I can rmb

Odd

Just want to make a note that a person I've met on board game community is related to a friend's partner.

Also one of the ttdi community garden participants knows Zhao phin quite well.

Things to do today
1 call rudy
2 do some financial planning for my shining star
3 read

Weekend

Met up with the garden peeps on Saturday. Good discussion! Hopefully we can carry it forward. Michelle will be supplying us with the wooden pellets to assemble the Composting box.

Stayed back and listened to some talk on earth day.

In the afternoon, just chill at home. Ate popiah.

At night, hang out at Tricia and CM place.  Celebration for hexiang and Deanna's bday. Finished my ice cream. Chat and played. Drank.

Stayed late doing some reading.

Sunday finished reading carnal innocence in the morning. Good ending! Then, met up with Jolene, ate at Caffinated cabin at Jalan gasing. Nice environment but food is nothing to shout about.

Accompanied her to do some hiking shopping at daiso, followed with book shopping at book axcess. I bought five books.

Wanted to buy root beer from A&W but queue was too long.

Watched another episode of idiot abroad,  followed by watching Liverpool lose to swansea. 3-1.

Went to chew house for a guy's night. Played I betcha (not a game I really enjoy but ah well),  hanabi, nba2k and fifa.

Chit chat with kf hl n Cm for a bit at  McDonald's before heading home. Collected cranium, last night on earth and Coup from. Nick.

28/4 and 29/4morning

What did I do? Stayed home the whole day i think.

Didn't watch Liverpool (lost 1-0) to a goal during injury time. :(

Went out this morning. Hl picked me and Minli to Putrajaya for nicks rom. In the car, ml told us about working in money match startup company and how she is preparing financial models and attending meeting with the team.

Ate at mcd. Chill for a bit inside the car at the parking lot while waiting for Nick (we arrived at 845 whilst the time to reach is 930).

After ceremony we berbrunch at El dante, where ls friends brought out a cake for Deanna's big three bday! So thoughtful of them.

After that, hl dropped Minli at a man suria and me home.

Found out I didn't win my s7 from gsc. Ah well.haha

27/4

Watched Captain America! Woo!

I think the premise is good, and towards the middle you did yourself in tension hoping that they don't break up. Good story! 

26/4

Brunch with sis, Jo and kammo at gerai. Dropped sister at ikea then dropped kammo to buy some ingredients at ttdi market.

Came home, slept till 2pm.crazy sleepy I don't know why.

Woke up, read a lil',  play a lil',  see the market a lil'. Dropped by at ecoknight to collect buntings and kammo cut lemongrass. But turns out that it's a different species, cousin of lemongrass. Useful to repel mosquitoes

Sold eksons today cos it is not moving. And 1mdb d defaulted so I thought I hedge my risk and hold some cash too.

Played pre civilization marble age till 8+

Ate a lot (again) for dinner. Ate fried rice, pie tees, fried chicken, nee kuih, and one stick of satay.

Then chat with cousins. Good talk la I guess after so long. It is nice.

Everyone left and I played computer a bit more before I went into my room.

Did some exercise and listened to bfm. I like tasha fusil's voice. Very soothing and soft.
