Hot Cup

Vitya Originally uploaded by williamnyk . Sent HP to Puduraya, but she was unable to get any bus tickets back to Kuantan. Friday night is a bad time to travel. Since it was a failed trip, we had an unoffical celebration for SK. She finally submitted her thesis to the university for senate approval. Supper at Vitya Curry House , Taman Desa. One of the few places that serve drinks in metal cups. For hot drinks, there are two cups, one tall and one stout. One should pour the piping hot drink from the tall cup into the wider-mouthed stout cup to cool. Then drink from the latter. According to my colleague, such drinking technique is only practised in certain regions. Try it out for the novelty factor! And one more interesting trivia about Indian culture -- the people there don't really take to iced drinks. You order iced coffee and you're likely given a strange look! Hot, hot drinks for a hot, hot country.

Happy Easter!!! (^o^) Originally uploaded by doc18 . Had a catch-up yumcha session with CK and KK at Rabbit Cafe , Seri Petaling. I was promised by KK that it would be a nice quiet place with a great atmosphere. Well, I was had. The place was dang noisy. Two large groups were having a birthday bash. And the F&B disappointing. The ordering process was a pain. First, the variety causes your head to spin because you don't know what to have. When you DO decide, they'll tell you that this is not available, and that is not available. I was tempted to ay, "WHAT IS AVAILABLE?". I had a go at Champagne Bubble Tea. And let me tell you that a nasty blue drink came to the table tasting of bubble gum rather than champagne. I'm a sucker for weird stuff. The yam cake was also strange. Deep-fried yam paste. Golden brown on the outside, paste-like on the inside. Instead of yam, I got black-eyed peas. Standard conversation. Exchange of niceties. Mengumpat . Talk cock....

Hit, Miss, Hit Originally uploaded by cobalt123 . My web logs indicates multiple visits from 'someone' in Arizona, Phoenix. Recently, I found out 'who' that is. Drum roll....................... It's myself . Bikin malu je . Found this out after a little experimentation. The number of returning visits corresponded with the number of times I load my blog. Pengz... And I thought I had a stalker from the U.S.

MEDC 2006

medc_reg Originally uploaded by williamnyk . Attended the Microsoft Mobile & Embedded DevCon 2006 (MDEC) on Tuesday. Arrived at the Sunway Convention Centre at 8:00am. I bloody woke up at 5:30am that morning for no inconceivable reason and forced myself to sleep till 6:30am. As usual, the Sunway Toll on the LDP was jammed. People are never on their lanes. Left wants right, right wants left. Nice. Anyway, I tried to register when I received, but they couldn't seem to find my name... Usher: Good morning, sir! You're registered as a ..... ? Me: Morning. Err, I think under delegate. Usher: This way sir. What's your company name? Me: *Censored*. Usher: Ohhh, that would be at this line. (My turn arrives) cute registration girl: Good morning, sir. Your business card? Me: Morning. (I hand over my card, she struggles to find my record) cute registration girl: Can you repeat your information again sir? (I repeat myself, meanwhile another girl joins the fray) Ano...

Logs

While looking through my logs today, I found that a google search for the term "Joey Wong Pantyhose" actually returned a result to my blog. Pengz. What kind of fetish is that?! Secondly, I'm wondering what is 'interesting' in Arizona, Phoenix? Hmm...

Mixed, No More

restsunsea Originally uploaded by williamnyk . It's been years since I ate the famous pork noodles at Sun Sea Restaurant @ OUG. Some people like it because it's an amalgam of pork noodles and seafood noodles, some hate it for that same fact. Oh well, can't please 'em all. Anyway, it's been nearly two years since I tasted it. And oh boy, how it has changed. The price has increased from MYR3.00 to MYR4.00 and they have stopped putting in the 'spare parts'. No wonder the aunty was so pissed when I kept reminding her that I did not want the innards. There's none to begin with. If you want liver and intestines, extra charge le... However, they're still as busy as ever. JUst look at the big collection of multi-coloured mugs, all ready for the take-out customers. See the basin of fried pork lard and money strewn on the counter... yeah, business is still thriving.
