Last week, on a Wednesday movie day, I was at Wangsa Walk killing time. Why kill time when I was suppose to be working? Well if you happen go through my blog last wednesday it was the day I proposed! I was killing time waiting for my proposal flowers to be prepared. The cineplex in Wangsa Walk Mall is run by TGV. It's a spanking new cinema which was just opened this year April. The ambience was great, and I find the seats very comfortable compared to other cinemas around Kuala Lumpur. Here, I could actually stretch my legs fully while seated, most of the time in other cinemas, my knee would be hitting the front seat. TGV Cinemas Wangsa Walk Mall I couldn't decide on which movie to watch. That day there wasn't much choices, as most of the blockbuster movies I've already watch, namely Harry Potter. So i went ahead and chose what looked to me like a ghost movie. Why not, I'm always up for a good scary movie. Haunted Changi, that's the title of the first movie...

TGIF, Thank god it's Friday! Friday has always been one of my favourite days because it signifies the end of a long hard week at work, and the time for rest has finally arrived. It's the time of the year again, where free calendars, and diaries are given out by the company or suppliers of the company. Today I received my second free complimentary 2011 calendar. I jokingly commented, "Hey! More stuff to clutter up my work desk with". But seriously calendars are very practical items to be given. How else would we know when to take leaves for holidays? My first complimentary 2011 calendar had the title "Racing Horse" gracing it's cover. Probably the person that gave it thinks it will be good luck for winning the lottery. Racing Horse Calendar The calendar that caught my attention was the second one. According to the Santa that gave the calendar, this particular calendar has a Fengshui theme to it, hence the title on the cover wrote "Waterfall...

Over the months, I've noticed my waistline growing bigger and bigger. The turning point i guess was when i bought that piece of jeans last week, and realized i can no longer wear my usual size 32, it is now size 34 ! So yesterday evening, went and got myself some Quaker Oats, from my readings off the internet, oats are suppose to be good for the heart, lowers cholesterol and if taken regularly, can help to reduce weight. To me, oats make you feel full, so the need to eat more reduces drastically. Think of oats as tiny sponges that soak up cholesterol and carry it from your body. Go away cholesterol! Hello good looking slim body!   Have a look below for a glimpse of the instant oatmeal that i bought from Carrefour Wangsa Maju. Quaker Oats - Strawberry Flavored Instant Quaker Oatmeal I bought the ones that came in sachet form because my plan is to have it for breakfast, and if i'm running late, I can actually just bring one or two sachets to my workplace and have it t...

Life begins after working hours. Yet again this phrase comes to my mind. How true that statement is depends on the individual I guess. Some folks are such workaholics that to them work IS life! No work, no life. I'm somewhere in between, no work no $$, no $$ no life, so theoretically no work is really equivalent to no life. Gee.. Anyway today after work, like any other day I was at Jelatek Putra LRT station to pick up my gf. She called me up to inform that she's still tied up with work so I was on my own. I decided then to hop onto the LRT to KLCC. At least I could kill time loitering around the mall while waiting for her. Purple Christmas With A Band Reached KLCC around 7.20pm, the first thing that got me interested in was this band playing at the centre court. They look the part, rockers, with the wild hair and good looks. The thing that I found unique was, all 4 of the band members were decked in suits and ties, playing slow melodic Christmas tunes. It really didn...

Just something to ponder on. Occasionally, once in a blue moon I receive new friend requests on my Facebook account. I'm sure everybody gets a new friend request every now and then. The question is, how long does it take you to scrutinize the request before accepting the add? And what criteria do you look for before clicking accept. Some examples of the criteria I can think of and what I personally check for is whether I know the friend or not, do we have mutual friends, is it a random add. I will, however always accept unconditionally because I always find that it is always good to know more friends. Social networking and stuffs. Well, today I received a new friend request. However it is not from a person but rather from a company or an establishment of some sort. Have a look below. Facebook for iPhone friend requests tab "Gadget Land?". So if you were me, would you confirm as friend, or ignore? The questions that came to my mind was, who's this? How did h...

Have you ever encountered insects, bugs or foreign objects in your meals before? It may be in your favourite nasi lemak, your mee soup, or even your Maggi goreng mamak! Well, today's short sharing is a real life experience shared by my gf, and it happened today. Well this morning, she had a off-site external training away from the office. The location was in Bangi, Petronas Learning Centre. Yours truly drove her there in the wee hours of the morning, and to avoid the traffic jam it had to be really early eg: 6am started driving.  She encountered a case of dirty food in the worse scenario thinkable. And it happened twice! Once during breakfast inside her meal, and the second time in her lunch meal. Just the thought of it made me feel queasy. The first shock came in the form of... A baby cockroach in her breakfast bihun goreng!!! And the worse part is she only saw the cooked cockroach after nearly finishing her meal. That means more than 3/4 of the bihum goreng was already swimmi...

Let's rewind back to yesterday, and what happened around my personal space. As i mentioned in my previous blog post, i got the free buffet dinner voucher at Coffee Terrace Genting Highland . Well both my gf and I reached there around 6.30pm, it's a long walk from First World Hotel . Anyway found out the buffet dinner here is priced at RM 60++ for adult. Nice, i got RM120++ worth of freebie. Coffee Terrace Genting Highland The place looks, and smells great. Ambiance wasn't excellent due to the number of people there, but the food really looks great. And i was to find out later the food tastes great too! You will really be spoilt for choice here, as there are so many counters ranging from western to asian foods . Just have a look below at the various counters. Any food for you sir? It made me wonder about the cooks and chefs working there, every counter had like 4 to 5 workers behind the counters. Where do they get the money to pay these workers? Next up will be...
