will i am's delayed diary

Hi guys, just wanna share with you my 3 seconds of fame: One of my pics of Federation Square, Melbourne under the Creative Commons license was included in the Schmap Melbourne Guide . Well, the pic is very small, but I'm happy anyway. :P. Take a look! Schmap Melbourne Tenth Edition: Photo Inclusion

Gratitude had long ago scheduled a LNY gathering with SK and I, and I had promised to bring KH along. And so on Friday afternoon ( after going to the market with mum and boy, I loved the fact that it was so peaceful ), we made our way to Klang to taste Gratitude's cooking. We arrived half an hour before schedule and it caught Gratitude by surprise as he was still upstairs putting on his makeup. His Dowager opened the door for us and we were greeted with his dog Junior who gave us a good welcome bark. Some of the cooking had yet to be completed but he shoo-ed us out of the kitchen. We lounged in the living room while he continued to cook. According to Gratitude, I was playfully stroking KH's hand when his brother had happened to come down the stairs and that nearly gave him a heart attack. Did I do that? :P. By the time he had nearly finished cooking the leek, vegetables, prawns, soy sauce chicken and herbal soup we came to the realization that we were the only guests! So pai se...

Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief Swiped from scenaristes.biz . On Thursday, KH, SK and I went out to MV to catch "Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief" . Met KH there as he had come earlier to watch 14 Blades . Met him at Vietnam Kitchen where he was having lunch. Ordered their basil lime juice. It came complete with a giant stalk of sweet basil. Freaked SK out. Definitely an acquired taste, but I love it. The movie wasn't that great, but the actor was quite cute. Quite a long shot trying to pass him off as a 12 year old. I should have went for "14 Blades" instead. I'm wary of the quality of HK wuxia movies these days. Sigh. I'll watch it on DVD then. Apollo joined us shopping for a while. KH bought a pair of shorts and slacks at Seed. The whole shop was full of PLUs. One salesman looked soooooo familiar. I think he saw KH playfully spank my ass in the shop. By dinner time, SK and I went home, while KH stayed back for dinner ...

7/365: CHRISTMAS IS OVER Swiped from LISA M G . Here's an update on the MYR50 credit card tax that comes into enforcement this year. For existing cards: Citibank charges the tax on the approval anniversary of your card. HSBC charges the tax one month after the annual fees of your card. For new cards: The tax is immediately charged to your card. Please do cancel all your excess cards and leave only the critical cards. Once the tax is charged, no bank will waive it for you. You'll have to pay or use your rewards points. Please act before you are charged.

Ash Wednesday Swiped from ee-mm . These days, the Lunar New Year is quite close to the Lenten Season . The Fourth Day actually coincides with Ash Wednesday . Ash Wednesday marks the start of period of prayer, penitence, almsgiving and self-denial up till Easter. So, we had a very light breakfast and headed for mass at 1:00pm. The church was filled to the brim. Much more than I expected. The special thing about Ash Wednesday is of course the ashes. Basically its the blessed ashes from the palm fronds of last year's Palm Sunday . With it, the priest will draw a crucifix on one's forehead while intoning: "Turn away from sin and be faithful to the Gospel." Well, seems that Lent isn't Lent without some kind of temptation-- as I was walking out of the church, I bumped into 2 cuties that set my dar pinging. Hehe. Anyway, lunch was at a coffeeshop in Aman Suria. It was already past lunch time and it being the Lunar New Year period, not much food was left. But it ...

My sis and her tribe arrived back in KL on Monday night, so she came visiting bright and early on Tuesday. Cyan came dressed up as little tong san kid, but he was tired from the trip the previous night, so he was understandably cranky and manja. Stuck to his mum like glue. Coaxed a few pics from the kid and we let him change out of the hot clothes. Mum immediately started work in the kitchen. To avoid the kid from ka-ka-cau-cau , SK and I brought him to the nearby Jusco. Sat him on the trolley and brought him grocery shopping. He was quite obedient. I think people were staring at me for having a kid at my age . Bagi I perasan seketika . :P. Anyway, after an hour so, we headed back and the kid konked out in the car. Lunch was like a second reunion dinner , only that it's lunch. :P. Another carnivorous meal. After lunch, SK and I went out to KH's place again. Lady Luck was on my side as his parents were not at home again. Hehe. Spent some "happy" time there, then we we...

Woo-hoo Swiped from williamnyk . On the second day of the Lunar New Year, SK booked tickets to watch "72 Tenants of Prosperity" at Sunway Pyramid. Quite an entertaining movie with loads and loads of TVB stars in it. Lotsa squabbling. Chaotic storyline. But it works anyway. Fancy seeing sexual tension between a really old-looking King of Canto Pop and a has-been beauty queen? This is the movie for you. I mean it in a positive way! :P. Lunch was at Pappa Rich and I had cup of their wonderful iced coffee. But their curry mee is really crap. I think they forgot to add salt into their gravy. I could just taste the coconut milk and nothing else. Ugh. The decoration at the mall was really crappy. So amateurish. Felt like they had no proper budget and hires some undergraduates to do it for free. Decided not to eat at home that night, so we went off to Brickfields in search for some Indian food. Apparently, the Vitya over there has also closed down, so we just randomly walke...
