I'm so damn hungry.. and it's so damn wet outside!

I had nothing much to do today since it's a one day gap between my finals. So, I decided to go out and eat.. chicken, that is. KFC was my first choice but seems crowded to me (it was only 5pm) but the main thing is, it's the rain outside. People come in there just for the sake of waiting for the rain to stop so they can walk freely outside again. Damn it.

Oh well, I moved to McDs.. ate the chicken value meal. But eating alone is boring, so I called up my homie Hendra.


Me: Hello?

Hendra: Wassup, Foo..

Me: Yo dude, where ya at? (*munching chicken*)

Hendra: PJ, man. Waddup?

Me: Naah dude.. me juz eatin chicken, wanna join?

Hendra: No can do bro, got things to do.

Me: Oh, aight.. (*munching chicken*)

Hendra: Hey, if ya free in da weekends.. let's watch 'The Day After Tomorrow'..

Me: Is the premier show on Saturday?

Hendra: No, dude.. it's TODAY!

Me: Oh, okay.. (*munching chicken*).. ok, let me call ya later bout dat, aight?

Hendra: Aight, man.. ciao.

Me: Ciao.

I really gotta watch dat movie.. *burp!* :) Anyway, I left the restaurant as soon as I finished my chickens. But damn it, it's still raining outside!! Oh heck, I got on the LRT.. head back home (caught some rain while I walked to my rent house).. and had a quick bath. Now, my stomach's full.. outside's raining.. and hehehe.. what could be more perfect now than a nice long sleep =)

Book Fair @ PWTC with ma daddy..

Dressed in my black long-sleeves shirt, Snails khakihs and black leather shoes.. I met dad (and Mr. Rahman) in the Pan Pacific hotel's lobby at 4pm. We all head straight to the Medan Selera Putra located beside the hotel. Too bad, no stalls served any good meal for me to eat (dad and Mr. Rahman already eaten earlier).

So, we just left and walked into PWTC. After an hour of surverying, I bought McGraw Hill's 'HTML & XHTML' web designing book (with dad's money, hehe) while dad bought a few self-motivating books and some latest law journals, Mr. Rahman however didn't get anythin though. Hmm, I happen to notice a very cute short fair girl in her white baby-t with her red Comma jadcket, at the stall where dad bought his books (I ALWAYS notice, don't I?). Mueheheh ;)

Later, we exited the book fair and head up in the hotel room while waited 30minutes for the rain to slow down before we went to The Mall situated opposite the hotel. Ate at Pizza Hut, tried the new 'Splitzza' combo (two toppings in one pizza).

It was dark and almost 7pm when we're done, and Mr. Rahman had to split to the komuter station before the rain gets heavier. So, I just teman dad while he stroll around for a new handphone - the latest Nokia Communicator (can't recall which exact model) before we finally head back to our room.. and watched the 'magician' Mr. Efren Reyes defended his Asian Pool Championship title in the quarter-finals against other outstanding pool pros on Astro's StarSport channel.

At 11pm, we shut da lights out and went to our beds.. well, at least dad did. I couldn't sleep the whole night coz I forgotten - dad SNORES!! Aarghh!!

Bird watchin' + meet old KT friend + SHREK 2 = best weekend!!

Woke up at 7am (well, actually I couldn't sleep last night) and took my bath. Got dressed and waited for Dana's call. She sent me an SMS asking me to wait for her call. I waited in my room but I have this feeling of wanna be the one who waits for her in Pasar Seni, so I called 30minutes later and asked, "katne skarang Dana?' and she replied, "dah on the way.."

Arghh!! Why does she always do that? :P So, I rushed to the bus stop , rode the feeder bus and LRT, reached Pasar Seni around 9:15am. Guess what.. she was already there waiting for me! Then, we had our breakfast in McDs.. and later we took a cab to the Taman Burung which was only 5minutes ride from Pasar Seni. This is my 1st time visit, and dude.. it was great! =)

I payed for our entrace fee, RM12 x 2org (for Taman Burung). We were lucky to reach there early coz it was Saturday and there were tourists and kid's school trip which crowded this place a few hours later.


Can you see the rainbow? Posted by Hello

Dana was the one who snapped pics of the birds (in cages and out in the walkaway e.g. the peacocks) while I take pics of its descriptions. She did took some pics of flowers, which after an hour inside the bird park.. I suggested we go to Taman Orkid. And so we exited the bird park with an ice-cream in Dana's hand (damn expensive!!) and walked to the Taman Orkid situated right in front of us. Dana payed the entrance fee (RM1 x 2org = CHEAP!) and straight away, I see that Dana's in her paradise (with a big smile on her face).

She LOVES flowers!!!

Well, thank goodness there weren't any description boards to snap with my digicam since its memory is almost full. So, I just helped Dana holding on some of the flowers while she took the pics. Later, we sat on a bench for a short rest when suddenly Dana got a surprise SMS from our old KT friend, Ahmed Zulhairi!! He asked her out and I invited him to join us in Mid Valley at 1pm. We walked out of the Taman Orkid and took the cab.

RM6.50 seorang. Anywhere you wanna go.

I payed RM13, and we reached Mid Valley at 12.30pm (damn those cab charges, their freakin' expensive!!). We were so hungry but we head straight to GSC to buy our tickets. The que was already long enough to reach McDs (opposite of GSC) but it doesn't matter.. coz we got our SHREK 2 tickets!! But the bad news is, it's at 5.25pm and we're sitting 2nd row from da big screen!!

Ahmed arrived at 1pm, and we all went to Oasis food court to have our brunch. It was only 2.15pm when we finished our meal, so we didn't have anything else to do but to accompanied Dana and surveyed for her watch in ALL (yes, ALL) the watch shops in Mid Valley. She wanted to have this new trend 'cufflings' watches but it was over her RM200 budget. (Poor thing..)

Round and round, and up and down we went but still she couldn't decide. The three of us even sat down on one of the benches and talked (and criticized shoppers who walked by) for an hour just to eat up the remaining hours before our movie. We even ate McDs sundaes and went into the Pet Shop (damn it stinks in there!).


Dana, Ahmed, and ME! Posted by Hello

Finally.. at 5.30pm, we entered GSC and watched our long-awaited returning green hero in SHREK 2!! =)

The movie ended at 7pm, perfectly.. with lots of laughter :D Then, it was time to say goodbye but Ahmed took us to Restoran Syed in Bangsar where he always hangs out. He had western, Dana had nasi goreng while I had my usual nasi goreng cina. By 7:45pm, Ahmed dropped me and Dana at the Bangsar LRT Station and from there, we head back home seperately.

I arrived in my room at 8:45pm, and I must say.. this has been the greatest weekend for me! It was nice to meet you again, Ahmed. We really need a lot of catchin' up to do, aight? Mueheheh.. Thanks Dana for inviting me today (or is it I yang menyibuk, hehe).. we should go to Zoo Negara with everybody someday.. :)

Back to KL.. Next week, FINAL EXAMS!!!

Dude, I aint dat shaky but yesterday's news about the double-decker bus got wrecked in an accident on the North-South highway really hit me. Why?

IT'S THE EXACT SAME BUS I ALWAYS RIDE FROM ALOR SETAR TO KL!!

Durian Burung, plate no. KBK 6000, yellow double-decker.. and these buses only travel (to and from Alor Setar - KL only) either morning at 9.30am or 12 midnight, but I always take the morning's. (DAMN..)

[Click here for more info about the incident.]

Anyway, my bus drove off late coz 2 passengers didn't check-in (I guess they were even shocked than I was). The journey took 7hours (9.45am-4.45pm) with the usual short 30minutes break in Sg. Perak. Took a leak and bought my favourite sliced cold guava as I always do (I'm a jambu freak, okay..)

Once I stood out of the bus in Pudu Raya, I was damn relieved :) Head straight to KFC in Central Market, ate a snack plate combo with Pepsi.. and quickly exited to the Pasar Seni LRT Station. Took the LRT to Setiawangsa, rode the feeder bus to my rent house.. and KABOOM!

(tido mati sampai isya'..)

Woke up with a grumbling stomach, so I bought 2 Maggi-in-a-cup curry flavoured instant noodles. Ate one and fooled around with my phone, SMS my friends.. and guess what?

I'm goin' to Taman Burung tomorrow morning with Dana!! Saja je nak berjalan2 sambil menikmati alam. Mueheheh.. =)

Finally.. I get to hangout with my KT buds!!

Yeah, aint got da chance to do so for the past weekends since I'm stuck at home.. watchin on my beloved mom (and the rest of the family) while my dad's in KL for his weekly law workshop.

Arrived at LRT Taman Bahagia at EXACTLY 10am as promised to Ali.. be he came only after 2 hours later. Reason? [OVERSLEPT]. Yup, I knew it.. cos yesterday he lepak with other guys at night right after work uptil 4am. Poor fella, such dedicated individuals towards friends are hard to find nowadays =)

After 2 hours of boredom, Ali came.. drove straight to Dana's and then to Karim's. And guess what happened next? I promised Farah to pick her up for lunch. Damn sexxxaayyy!!! =)

All of us ate at Penang Delight in SS15. Kinda nice, price was acceptable. Then we had to drop her off since she'll be busy with her shooting later in the evening. So, the rest of us went to Sunway Pyramid. As soon as we reached there, I received a call from Farah (rather discomforting conversation but I didn't mind at all). Well, anyway.. we watched 'TROY' at 5:15pm.. and then we head straight for da bowling alley. Four of us had a short but a wonderful time, isn't that right Ali and Karim?
(Don't bother.. they're watchin da cute lil' babes playin next to our lane.. haha!)

Bowling - Ali's trying to make a spare.. Posted by Hello


Bowling - Dana's about to make a STRIKE.. Posted by Hello

Well, wanted to go for another round but since we're not energized enough as a result of lack of FOOD, we quickly quited Pyramid and went to F.A.B. restaurant. I ate my regular 'nasi goreng cina' and iced milo, while Dana took kuehteow or sumthin.. sorry la tak ingat. Huhu!! Nyam nyam.. dig in fellas.. (munching food like cannibals)

Ooh my.. it's already 9:45pm, and that's when they drop me off at Taman Bahagia LRT and I went back to my rumah sewa in Setiawangsa (thank God I didn't miss the feeder bus, or else I had to walk 20 minutes to my house).

Pheww!! What a day, I really enjoyed it very much! I can't seem to stop swinging the folded paper in my hands.. heh, I'm still fancinated by Brad Pitt's sword skills in 'TROY'. Unfortunately, Orlando Bloom was as not-so-bright as he was in his previous movies.. and the worst part is.. HE STILL PLAYS WITH BOW AND ARROWS!!! What the heck is wrong with him, is he addicted to it since LOTR?! Damn it, I hate him.. (eventhough some of my friends told me I *cough* look like him *cough*. Excuse me :P


P/S: What a wonderful day guys, can't wait to spoil another weekend together!! Oh yeah!!

Adik aku dapat handphone baru siot!!!!!

Sony Ericsson T610Parents woke me up at 10am, ajak me teman them brunch. So, I quickly bathed and dressed.. and we ate at this restaurant somewhere near Menara Tabung Haji. Then, we headed to City Plaza to get mom's lotions and dad's vitamins. Suddenly, my dad dok usha some phones for my lil' sis, Ann. They asked me to bargain with the phone seller since that I'm experts at these gadgetries. Well, it's good to know I am worth of being use for something..

The criterias I personally looked for:-
1. Cheap (duhh..)
2. Camera (my lil' sis wants it)
3. Colour screen (preferably 65k display)
4. Polyphonic tones
5. GPRS
6. Infra-red (Bluetooth is a bonus, kalau ader..)
7. Fits just perfectly in the hands
8. And yeah, did I mention CHEAP? :P

It took a few shops till we got our eyes on this 'not-so-latest-but-still-good-to-buy' Sony Ericcson T610.
Costs RM860.. and yup, like I said.. Bluetooth is definitely a bonus. :) The picture quality taken by the tiny camera at the back of phone was sharp as quoted.. better, compared to my dad's Nokia 7650 (duhh.. eventhough it's a VGA camera, the screen only displays 4k colour). And dad goes like, "Mana bley challenge my phone nyer picture quality.." he proudly said just as he always stood up for his phone.

Grabbed it after all the testing I conducted.. satisfied my parents.. and we went back home. Lepak kejap, fiddle around with da new thingy while I waited for the clock to strike 3pm (gotta pickup my lil' sis from school). Yeah, she's in for a surprise I tell ya.. *damn it*.

3:10pm - I picked her up, got back home, and she was so happy.. been playing with it since.. and mom went, "Aaaii.. makan dulu ceq.. nanti perut tuh lapaq.. gastrik nanti.. bla bla bla.." but Ann couldn't resist being totally mesmerized and fond of her new handphone. Well, I gotta go now.. dah masuk waktu Asar.. prayers. Ciao.. *click*.


P/S: Naahh.. I love my 6610. My first phone I bought with my own money.. *sigh*.. gotta love it! :)

Dana to the rescue!!!

5pm @ KLCC
Tonight, I'll be heading back to Alor Setar for my long weekend holiday (well, whatever's left of it).. so, I decided to ring up Dana and asked her to teman me today cause I know she has nothing to do at home. I called her earlier in the morning, she was temaning her mom shopping. Well, I waited and hoped that she could see me later. And yeah, she was free by 4.30pm :) She came in kinda late since the 4-days holiday started already, everywhere was jammed. You name it - road, bus stops, LRT stations, and especially shopping malls.. and KLCC was one crowded arena. I sat somewhere near Stonegrills within the Picnic foodcourt area while I waited for her to arrive.

Dana came in her cute pink vertical striped shirt, very cute :D

She looks so tired, so I bought her a guava juice while I had my iced milo. I had my 'standard' nasi ayam (yes, again today.. same food stall) but Dana wasn't hungry. Borak2 with her, a lot about her actually. From how she started sneaking out, past traffic accidents, right up till the degree of being the 'my-parents-really-worries-about-me-and-my-whereabouts' girl. Seriously, concerned parents are far much more better than those who dont. Hey, parents are always worried about their children.. especially if you're the only son@daughter in the family. Mueheheh :P

Then, at one time.. Dana told me that our buddy, Ali, DID NOT went back to Johor. And the previous night before his 'planned' journey, I wanted to crash his place for the night before I'll be goin home today.. but he replied my sms that he couldn't let me overnight at his crib because "..sorry ah fut, aku kena gi Johor esok..". Alahai, Ali.. Ali.. awat la hang kalut la gu tuhh.. :)

6pm sharp, we both gerak to the LRT station. Still crowded as when I arrived earlier, and Dana had to que for her tiket. Later, we rode the LRT.. I got down at Pasar Seni while Dana had to continue the ride to Kelana Jaya. As soon as I step foot into Pasar Seni, the rain started to pour slighty. By the time I reached Pudu Bus Station, the rain came down in a blast. Damn, it was still early - 7pm to be exact. Lepak somewhere and played games on my 6610 for 45 minutes until I heard this guy calling for the Alor Setar passengers. And at 8:15pm, my bus began its journey to my humble abode. The best thing about this particular journey, I brought my nokia headset.. so I could listen to the radio! Hitz.fm all the way, baby!! Damn, I love this new song from Hoobastank - 'The Reason'. It kinda reminds me of that someone.. *sigh*

At first, the coverage was good.. but 10 minutes later in the highway, I lost every radio station. Well, what else I could do.. tido jer lah!

Later, I reached Sg. Perak.. I had nothing to eat, just went down to take a leak. It was kinda chilly outside that time.. brrrrr ;) Went back to sleep in da bus. Around 1am, the bus entered Sg. Petani.. and I turned on my radio and listened to Hitz.fm.. sampai lah ke Stesen Bas Shahab Perdana, Alor Setar @ 2am.

Dad picked me up, I got home, ate some quick medium meals.. and obviously got online and checked every single thing there is to check.
Slept after my subuh prayers. Pheww.. what a day. Gotta hit da bed, really. Can't.. even.. type.. anymore.. ZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzz..


P/S: Thanks Dana, I hope I didn't trouble you just to teman me today. Thank you vewy vewy much my fwenn!! :)
