Sad day
Some event has occured and marked a dark day in my big familes' life. We were all happy for few years without major incident, but the past days, tears evaporated more than the quantity of coffee I drank. Cheer up, be strong, for yourself and most importantly your family!
All I would like to shout out is that cherish your life, your loved ones, your family, your siblings, your relatives, your friends (online & offline), your co-workers (top, same, below), just cherish everyone!
Pass a smile, it might not mean a lot to you, but it might just change the mood of some, even yourself! By just smiling you have just made your mind feel better, let alone your soul. Pass a smile to everyone you see, even if they are the rubbish collector, maids, cleaner. Its polite and its good!
Thank you for being with me dear, I love you lots, and thanks for understanding, though you always nag and bug and annoy me, but you really was letting me last night. Thanks for the little massage, felt better this morning and it helped me sleep a lot better last night.
Thanks, I love you

3rd year anniversary
We went to Tropicana City Mall, she still thought we were going to 1 Utama. Haha. We never went Tropicana City Mall before, so this is a first for both of us. Upon reaching after driving like a madman, lucky that I made it in time to get my reserved tickets, if I was to be late by 2minutes, gone! So lucky day! 
After gettig the car parked, we found something that we enjoyed a long long time ago, but before parking our car, we mentioned that we would park a little further (C1-the corner) and walk (pak-toh). But moments after locking the car, we had a driver fetch us to the entrance! Its those kind that you see on golf course or if you were lucky enough in Sunway Pyramid (we only sat once in Pyramid). Then we went shopping a little while, spotted a ship selling 女人我最大 (a tv show) stuff at a cheap price. So we browse for about 10-20 minutes. We bought 3items for RM10 which include a bubble bra (wash bra in washing-machine, prevent damage), soap holder (heart shaped) and i forgot whats the other thing..

Later we went to have a bite a Subway which was just next to GSC. We grabbed 'Todays Special'

Queeing at the wrong place for popcorn, miss the starting of the TRANSFORMERS 2..... sad....


After finishing the movie, I was hunting for a toilet! Liked the movie so much don't want to miss a single minute of it! So now the consequences!
Then we went look look see see and bought a shirt for RM10 then headed to Carrefour.Finally I bought something I always wanted, olive oil, small but expensive (RM20) and bought a cheap basil leave in a bottle, not the green bottle, (green RM9, grey RM5), since wasted so much on olive oil, save some on the basil. Wanted to buy rosemarry and a few more, but lets leave it to when I have my own home and when I have income. Bought my mayo and going to make my potato salad tomorrow. Yay!! All I need now is a little Coriander.

We then left Tropicana City Mall and lucky again, got a ride back to our car, but soon we had trouble, since I got my parking ticket stamped at the info counter in Carrefour, I head straight out, only to be repied by the machine 'Please pay something something', head back to autopay and it said 'ticket unusable',. went to the office, then only I know that though the parking ticket was scanned at the info counter, still need to scan at the autopay, bla bla bla, since I don't want my mood to be spoilt, just nodded and smile, in the end paid RM2 and off we go!!
I gave hint of steamboat to her, so she assume it was in PJ/Subang area, but she knows its not a Summer.. Suspecting a little too much, she thought our friends will be there too, calling them and interrogating them. Then this guy mentioned he was in Puchong, and then said no no no, he is home (kampung Subang), so someone got even curious especially since I have passed by Sunway (our usual steamboat area) and headed to Puchong. But then I passed the second toll, she began to feel weird, then I shouted 'Bakuteh here I come' (we normally eat Bakuteh at Yap Beng). Then I passed the place, and off to Serdang, and into Jalan 6/1, then I say Jalan Aman and coincidently, Bakuteh! So I said 'yes!!', she heard it, haha. Lets skip all these ya, parked at a bakuteh's carpark area and ate at their competitor's place, a shop next to them, 'Hoi Tong Steamboat'

Wanted to go Little Genting/Wings Cafe, but too full and too lazy.. Haha.. Thus we ended the day there and went back to our home!!

KISS
Mr. Strunk's famous quote:
"A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary
sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines
and a machine no unnecessary parts."
Stumbled upon this little quote while studying on SEO, it is so simple that it is the truth and what all we want! And I even remember studying Managerial Communication and BSS, the very fundamental and simple yet effective prinsip, KISS!
I KISS YOU, YOU ALSO MUST KISS ME!! KISS KISS BANG BANG

Ok ok, you can omit the kiss kiss bang bang part, but kiss actually means
Keep
It
Short &
Simple
Its true, and I am always reminded by none other than My Gorgeous Girl. No matter in whatever situation, during a talk, conversation, lecture, studying, note taking, driving, playing, the fundamental truth is keep it short and simple.
During note taking, if you don't KISS, you might as well just publish you notes, it might be as thick as the textbook!

When a race is commencing, racers always keep their time short, short time = faster lap, if your time is shorter than your opponent, most likely you are the winner. And racers always KISS the track, takin the shortest and simplest line to achieve shortest time.

Even playing basketball, the simplest move is the most effective, you don't need to go all AND1 and stuff to pass an opponent and score, 1, 2, cross, passed your opponent, make a lay-up. Simple, fast and doesn't consume you too much of your stamina,more stamina than your opponent means better chances of winning.

So in life, KISS! Though simple, not easily adapted, but definitely easily forgotten!

What is the worse way you can propose marriage to your partner
The worst way to propose to my partner especially is by proposing in a large crowd! Imagine we are partying and I propose on the spot, with music so loud you have to yell at the ear for her to listen. When I propose, she can't hear it, fine then, I took out the ring only to lose it when I was bumped by people around us, there goes the ring.

Now the problem should we go for the ring which costed a fortune or to continue proposing without a ring. Lets break it down
1) Go for the ring
Looking for the ring took quite some time, and my girl is following me while I crawl on the floor looking for it and everytime when I was about to reach it, it got kicked away!!! Finally when I got it, I jumped up, but with a girls skirt with me. And thats what got me punched and kicked and thrown out of the club with my girl. Not giving up, held onto the ring and propose then and there, got a slap, got a hug, got a comment! 'NOT ROMANTIC!! I WANT INFRONT OF A HUGE CROWD AND NOT 3 ALLEY CATS AND 2 BOUNCERS AND 1 BEGGER!!'
2) Propose without the ring
Ignored the ring and continue to yell at her ear, finally she knows what I am saying, finally felt relieve since got the message across, but now its my turn to listen, and guess what, I can't hear her, since she has a softer voice!! Long story short, she wants me to kneel on one foot and propose, I did, but then theres no ring! Found a substitute and used it first, thought gonna explain it after the party! Got slap, got a kick, got a scolding! 'YOU PROPOSE TO ME WITH A #$%^&@ AND EXPECT ME TO ACCEPT, YOU THINK I AM THAT CHEAP OR YOU THOUGHT I WAS DRUNK?!!!'
Now you be the judge.

Potato Salad
I still remember the first time I fell in lve with potato salad was when Kor Kelly did it. I don't really know what they called it, but all I knew was it was gone in a blink of an eye. He is not a chef, but he can make a few dishes better than a chef, just the few la!After google-ing for sme recipe, local and international, I can't really make them. Sad case, due to ingredient, but it's ok, I will still try and wip up some thing. I can't get parsley, I have no mustard nor sweet relish. All I have is onions, garlic, potato (don't even know what potato it is), cucumber (bought because of the SK Nasi Lemak), and last but not least, mayo.. And Sarawak black pepper and salt of course.
