I know this is so wrong, but yea..i watched another two movies going to be screened in malaysia soon, n one already screening.. They are..

Sex and the city was a lot better than i expected.=) Well, probably because i expected it to be NOT nice..hehe..
The movie was 2 hours n 17 minutes and honestly speaking there wasn a time which i felt bored. N i actually kinda like it. N definitely worth it to watch a rm7 movie in gsc.*winks*
But thanks to wen yi who downloaded the dvdrip, we watched it at home.=)

Next up, Meet Dave! AS the poster says: Eddie Murphy in Eddie Murphy in Meet Dave, which is very true. He was INSIDE himself, being a very small little being, n his body was sort of like his 'spaceship'.
I liked it, but not as much as You Don't Mess with the Zohans. Hmm, then again, i think i probably wont wana watch it in the cinema. A 'downloadable' movie.=P

The Ruins will be out in malaysia soon. N for those of u intending to watch it, or even have the SLIGHTEST thought of watching it. DON'T!!! Typical story line, nothing much exciting, would be a waste of money to watch it in the cinema. Yes, it is tat bad.


N finally, today! I watched the MUMMY. I watched it in the cinema ok.*good girl* Hehe.
Hmm, it was quite short, 1 hour 40 minutes. Hmm, not really exciting. But well, i guess it's worth paying the money to watch brendan fraser, jet li and michelle yeoh. Plus some pretty goog action scenes.
Not going to elaborate more. Watch it for yourself! Going to swim n then watch another movie. Forgetting Sarah Marshall!hehe..

I have been sick since Sunday. I guess it was because of the trip to Malaysia, cause I don’t think I had enough of water back then. Meeting with clients and being in workshops denies you the opportunity to drink water. My schedule was quite hectic as well, and coupled with my lack of sleep, I think it all contributes to the cold and sore throat that I had these past few days.

Went to see the doctor just now, and it costs me S$44 for less than 5 minutes consultation with him. Singapore’s medical fees is freaking expensive. All he gave me was some Septilin tablets (not that I know what the hell it is, first time getting this) for Immune Support and Lozanges. S$44 for these stuff, can you believe it???? I didn’t want to go to the doctor actually, but I need a MC, so it is forced onto me.

Oh well, hope I get well soon, quite shitty not being able to go to work……

Started the week by completing the first draft of the first assignment given to me by my boss, which is basically consolidating all of the action plans of critical risks from various available reports. Later in the day, my colleague approached me to tell me that I’m going to Malaysia tomorrow for a field trip. The first thought in me was: “Is this guy serious?!?!?!? I’m only here for less than 10 days and I’m already going on a business trip. Wow!” . I was hyper-excited with the golden opportunity, what a chance to learn!

So I arrived at the office the next day with my packed belongings. We left for the airport at 1530h to catch our 1700h flight in a cab. I must say that Changi Airport is truly a beautiful airport. The new Terminal 3 which was completed not too long ago is really a sight to catch. While I was walking inside it, I felt like I was in a posh shopping complex or hotel. All of the floors were carpeted and everything was so polished.

The flight to Malaysia was just a 55-minute trip and I arrived at Citidel Hotel at Midvalley Megamall before 1900h. I got the whole room to myself, since my colleague was staying at his house in KL. After my futile attempt to get TL, CM, Jin Ni and CB to come out for the night (useless barghers, except for TL), I went to bed early to prepare myself for the next day.

I met the client the next morning at their office. It was then that I got the first-hand experience of seeing how a risk management workshop really works. My colleague would basically help to devise a strategy to mitigate a critical risk that the company faced by asking questions and try come up with a solution from the answers that he got. It is almost like a experienced doctor trying to diagnose a uncommon illness in a patient by asking the patient questions about the discomfort that the patient experiences.

At night, I met up with Kristy (I really didn’t expect that she would turn up so easily with my last minute call, but met me she did) and had dinner at the food court in Midvalley.

We then went to Starbucks and chatted until 10.30pm. For those of you who don’t know, Kristy is now going into charity to help kid from Cambodia (perhaps other countries too). She did some travelling back then to Cambodia.  She is also working at the moment.

The next day, I went to the Malaysian branch of my company to finish up the assignment given to me by my boss. I finally got that done at 5.40 pm and rushed to the nearest LRT station as I am to meet up with TL at 6.30pm. My god, the LRT is packed like a sardine can, and I can literally smell the myriad mix of BO (body odours) lingering in the train.

The air-con is not really efficient, so it feels quite stuffy in it. Before I came to the LRT, I thought the MRT at Singapore was already bad enough with people not queuing up to get onto train and people not waiting for the passengers to exit before boarding the train. In the case of passengers of LRT, people literally shove their way through to get into the train. But that is not the worst yet. I arrived at KL Sentral to switch train to get back to Midvalley. Boarding the KTM is truly a nightmare. Not only people were shoving at each other, but it feels like as though everyone was groping everyone else! I can literally feel people hugging me from all angles. One can easily feel like one is a pop-star for a moment as everyone is trying their best to grope you. Needless to say, the BO in KTM is much worse. Guess this is the infamous inefficiency of Malaysian public transportation.

Arriving at Midvalley, I met up with TL and his girlfriend, Josephine (Jo). Kristy joined us soon enough and we went to Italianese at The Gardens (an adjoining shopping complex to Midvalley) and ordered a Salmon pizza and 3-ballz beefball spaghetti for dinner.

Me and TL has been best friends since Standard 6 and this is the first time I get a proper introduction and chat with his girlfriend. What a useless bargher. Blame it all on TL. Kekekeeke…….

As we dined, I asked Jo how is TL treating her. As expected, she replied that TL is constantly bullying her, by making her do many things for him. On the other hand, TL did virtually nothing for her. *Sigh~~~ when is our dear TL going to change to a better man? True enough, 5 minutes later, TL spilled the spaghetti (on purpose I’m sure) on the table just beside Jo’s plate.

Well, with such an evidence presented in front of me, who could doubt the authenticity of Josephine’s words? After we finished our meal, Crystal joined us. Our dear Crystal sure have gotten darker. At that time, the paradigm of beauty is redefined, instead of a tall, dark and handsome man and a fair lady, we have a fair man and dark lady. Guess that would make me the damsel in distress in a dire situation. As for an update of Crystal, she was the Assisstant Producer for a movie which was completed recently. She appears to be very happy and contented with her life, and I am happy for her as she has found her niche.

That dinner came up to RM 100, which is obviously freaking expensive.

The next day, I took a flight back to Singapore in the afternoon. Boy, I was really flushed and tired. Arrived at the house at 4.30 pm. On Saturday, my relatives brought me out to watch Hellboy 2. In general, I think the movie is not bad for a family movie, but it offers not much depth in terms of the movie plot. Well, that sums up my second week of work. I really had a great week, and I am really looking forward for the rest of my internship in Singapore. Oh yeah, did I mention that my trip to Malaysia is a all-expense paid trip?

oh no! i’m makin another post on food again! who says i’m gettin thinner…

although i was sick on saturday, it doesn’t stop me from layin my hands on delicious hainanese food. due to the absence of my camera that night, i have to surf around the internet to obtain images from other peoples’ blogs.

i had dinner with my brother and relatives at my kitchen restaurant, located at 26-1, jln pju 1/3b, sunway mas commercial center, petaling jaya. this restaurant was even mentioned in the star online!

front entrance, taken from 3-meals.com

it serve many kinds of delicious hainanese cuisine, and been in control of the children’s table, me and my elder cousins started throwin orders on random dishes. we called 2 yam cakes, toufu with minch meat, home cook sawi (which i swear turned out to be kailan), pork bread, fried pork balls (no, not their balls), stewed pork, mutton soup, and chin cha lok omelette. because of my sore throat, i have to avoid spicy food, and that’s alot of food for someone who is ill!

mutton soup, image by babeinthecitykl.blogspot.com

at first, when this mutton soup was served, i thought it was bak kut teh, but nonetheless, it the thick soup still taste awesome despite the strong smell. as a mutton lover, especially mutton curry (yummy), this is definitely not an issue for me.

the price of the chin cha lok omelette was of 2 years ago, and i can’t remember the current price stated in the menu. i do wish to go back there again and try out their curry char siew, taucu fish fillet, spicy braised pork, fried brinjal, and their pineapple drink.

that night, due to my high fever, my uncle and aunt brought me to damansara specialist hospital at 11pm for some prescribed medication, (here comes mayjune’s specialty) especially augmentin (antibiotic) and nurofen (for high fever).

Just a short update on movies i watched (not in cinema) last week. They are--->


Both movies will be out in malaysia soon.=) The rating for 'you don't mess with the zohan' is only 5.6 in imdb. But i really enjoyed it! Adam sandler is sooo funny, plus kinda good looking..ehehehe..

As for wall-e, the rating is 8.8. I love it!hehe.. It's not to say super funny..but i mean considering the movie is one n a half hours and 90% of the time no one is talking except wall-e calling eve's name n eve calling wall-e's name, n it was still very entertaining!

Hence, my recommendation, both also should watch!hehe..
