Inflation in Malaysia

I haven't been doing grocery shopping in M'sia for bout two months plus now, since my study break. And i had one with my housemates in Carrefour today.

For all i could remember, rice was priced at rm30sth. At least the one i bought was that price. N now it has shot up to rm49.90! When wen yi showed me the price of rice, I can only say that my expression when i saw the price of rice was-->stunned + mouth open humongously.

That was a major shock i got. I also noticed price hike in some other things. Maybe the prise has risen steadily since a long time ago but i didn't realise. I dunno.

I remember canned sardin being priced at around rm3sth. Now it is rm5.50.

A tray of eggs size A used to be rm7sth. Now eggs type D (much smaller) is rm8.10.

I know the price of Peel Fresh has always been increasing. It used to be rm3.19, then 3.49, and i stopped buying when it got to rm3.89. Now, it is rm4.99.

N with the petrol price of rm2.70 per litre, how to survive in malaysia!!

Films I Look Forward to

i recently watched kung fu panda over the weekend, and i must say i enjoyed the movie very much. ask my cousin; she complained that i laughed too loud =P

kung fu panda

a cg-animated comedy about a lazy, irreverent slacker panda, po, who must somehow become a kung fu master in order to save the valley of peace from a villainous snow leopard, tai lung. set in the legendary world of ancient china, this is the story of po, our unlikely hero, who enters the rigid world of kung fu and turning it upside down. po ultimately becomes a kung fu hero by learning that if he believes in himself, he can do anything.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

now i know where i’ve gotten my name from >.<”

kung fu panda is just the beginnin of a series of movies i’m lookin forward to. prepare your wallets, as there’s still:

i did not include some movies (like the bank job, made of honor and 21), because they have/will be available on dvd-rips soon =)

as usual, i’m in office now not doin anythin, so… urban terror, anyone?

Back in malaysia

Im back in m'sia. Been unpacking, that is, no time to cry. Anyway i really think i feel better now. The past 24 hours or so was simply disastrous. Especially when leaving his room in the morning n at the airport. I admit i cried a lot. N i know i gave him a really hard time when i didn't want to leave.

I shall not elaborate on the moment i burst into tears once i saw the boarding gate. Nor will i detail out the hours of me crying in the plane or before i sleep after i reached putra heights.

Initially i thought i would be doing so. But after some time, the deeply emotional me has progressively subsided. N the more rational me has appeared! So this post will not be a miserable, gloomy, despondent one.*thankful look*

On the way back to vista, climbing the stairs to reach B1-B2-2, i had mixed feelings. I tried to sort it out. N if i need to put it into words, it would b a feeling of 'going back to reality.'

Having stayed in germany for one month felt like a dream. A wonderful dream. I loved every moment i spent there. I really love that place. Why exactly?

1) The air is so fresh. Makes me wana go for a walk at the park nearby.
2) People there are generally friendly, n honest.
3) Cars there r cheap. So, nice cars kiri kanan depan belakang.
4) Safety. At least much safer than in malaysia.
5) More of a countryside. Breathtaking scenery, very peaceful.-->ease at heart
6) Strong currency. Everything is cheap without converting.
7) No stray dogs. All are healthy n cute!ehe..

The list will go on and on if i do not stop. But that doesn't mean i don't love malaysia.=) Especially my family, frens and the food here.=)

Shopping @ stuttgart

It was a sunny day, which all germans would love going out. N having stayed here for a month, i love it when it is sunny too! It makes me feel energetic and full of life! We went there around noon, as ken said there wasn't much to shop there, one two hours can 'gao tim' already. But guess what we shopped there till 7pm.*salute*

And as usual, it was a very tough day when it comes to shopping for souvenirs. I only managed to get two presents..sigh.. A shirt which is for my dad, n a cap..not sure who to give yet..hehe..

We did not take many photos as:
Point 1-He was obviously sick of all the churches, ancient buildings, parliaments etc etc.
Point 2-I was getting sick of them already too..hahaha..

Anyway, here's one that i wanted to take cuz i love the park. Everyone can just lie there n have picnic. Well, there's one such lovely park in esslingen as well, with swans as a plus point.=)

This, according to kenneth, is a castle. But he wasn't sure either. Random guess.

This one is for my beloved daddy devi!haha.. Devi don't get me wrong. It was kenneth who asked me to pose there, to show to u..*he's happy that u geram with our Paris LV photo*

N finally, our grande item of the day. Creative 5.1 speakers. Well, obviously it's not mine. Kenneth didn't like his current speakers (so do i), so we got a new one.

P/s: the speakers were tested and proven (by me) to be a high-performance speakers at an affordable price!haha.. I got terrified when i heard the lion roar at the beginning of the movie we watched.
