53 years of Independence

I had a blast last night with some of the folks from "One Community". It was a little insane at first but in the end, they were a bunch of really friendly and fun individuals.

I felt a little lost at first due to language barriers but after talking to a few people and playing several games, everything made sense. We're not that different after all. Not that I completely abandon Mandarin. I can still speak and write a couple of words.

What I learn from that experience is that everyone plays a role. Everyone plays an important part in contributing, like ideas, games, participation and etc. It is the like mindedness of everyone that made that event a success.

However, the overall event wasn't quite as what I expected, perhaps I'm little bit too demanding but I still had fun. Thus, I'm grateful.

One thing I must comment though. The fireworks displayed on Ampang Look Out Point was as small as a size of a 50 cent coin. It's really disappointing and it really kill the romantic atmosphere. So guys, you'll know where to get next time.

Badminton Nightmare

It's so hard getting youngsters to play badminton. What else to they do besides clubbing? Maybe they need girls or good looking boys to motivate them. Let me see what I can do...

Anyway, for those who are interested, please join my group page:

1 - 2 hours, once a week, is not too much to ask right? We got to stop giving excuses.

New things are always hard at first sight

It's been a tough few weeks for me. It's quite difficult juggling between work and college assignment at the same time. Not to mention the changes that is happening in your life, such as getting new friends, loosing certain friends, having more free time or less and etc and etc.

Personally, I'm a not a fan of transition but I guess I should just make the best in my current situation. I'm starting to accept the fact that things doesn't always go your way.

Till then,
All the best.

Monday Blues or Red?

Another fruitful Monday (off day). I serviced my car, collected my car battery's warranty card, started my internship report without too much hassle, successfully sent my dad over to the workshop to collect his car and had lunch with my mom. And now I'm blogging to you from Starbucks - sipping latte while I brag to you. What a nice day.

Not only that, I also uploaded a badminton video (with me on it) to YouTube! You can get it on my Facebook Open Group Page (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=143980142285259&ref=ts).

Here's a little picture of environment right now.

Porky dinner

Again I apologize for not jotting down the exact location but this pork experience is somewhere remote in the housing area of Mount Kiara. It's argubly one of the best places for pork and the best place to clot your arteries! So go easy on the meat!

A pile of Pork Ribs (Roasted)

Roasted Chicken with Giant Chargrilled Bananas

And finally, the signature pork chop. The best dish so far.

Too bad for Muslim people though, this is one helluva porkie experience.

Till then,

Eating Dim Sum at night

I'm not exactly clear on which part of Kuala Lumpur I'm in but I'm sure I saw Victoria International College nearby, so maybe you might want to look up on that. It is one of the place where you can get Dim Sum at night.
