Of pros and ?

This naughty student of mine, a boy today, kept arguing with me. He kept saying he's a pro. But he didn't know how to do his maths, having several corrections. Then I said if you are a pro, why are you having so many mistakes in your worksheet? He replied, see see, 'I'm a pro' while correcting the mistakes, this answer is correct rite? See, see I'm a pro. He asked, you know what's pro means meh? Of course I know! -me fighting back.

Then you know what is noob? Noob noob noob, he chanted happily. And continue, you see pro anot? I'm a pro. grrrrrr.

Next, he didn't let me to take his record book to write something. I was like snatching it from him since he was sooooo naughty.

What a day.


And by the way, the proposal is good, kinda like the movie. Just watched it, outdated me.

It's wednesday again!

Off day. Woke up unusually early, went to the market and get some stuff for breakfast, yay, got my black sugar soya milk.

Noon, met xiting and we went to the pulau tikus vegetarian place for lunch. Then maxim again.=P Whisky cream this time. Movie in gurney plaza-old dogs. The movie was pretty good I would say, hilarious, heartwarming and with the kinky, joker face smile that made us laugh so hard, and their silly actions. Robbin williams has aged already, not so young as before from the old movies.




the scenes that made people laugh =D

Chopper board soup for tea. First time having it as well, so as xiting, tasted like shark fins soup.
Quite yummy.


gurney drive, unusual to see these birds on the sea, or is it just unusual to me?



1st unwilling to take
2nd whee, at last willing to =P

After cell group, papaya milk bubble tea for supper! :D

A visit to KL again

Day 1-Reached kl at 230ish. Took ktm and lrt to bukit bintang. Walked through lot 10 to pavilion. Just loitered for awhile since most of the things are not within our capabilities to purchase, haha. Then to starhill gallery. Spent a few mins looking through the building and proceed to sungei wang. The shops there were crazy, sooo many people that I don't even have the chance to queue and try the clothes, grrr.

At night, went over to cousin sis place for dinner. She cooked kinda yummy food especially the coke chicken and cheeese cake!=D

Day 2-meet up with joey. They picked me up from the kelana jaya lrt station. Then her boyfriend drove us to the curve in mutiara damansara. My first time there and it's not what i expected after all. But it's near ikea ikano and other complexes. Nothing much to buy there.

The interesting part would be the restaurant. Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. A cute and unique restaurant based on the movie forrest gump. I didn't take pictures of it so i browsed through the net and managed to find some.




the interior


run forrest run sign is used when you are fine with your food and don't need waitresses to attend to you
stop forrest stop is used when we want to pay the bills or ask the waitresses for something



we ordered chicken cob salad( 24++), mud pie (24/26.90 i forgot) and the bourbon street baramundi(29.90)
the main entree comprises shrimps, chicken and mash potato
we shared all these coz' the dishes are all quite expensive =X

Ambience was not bad and they would give us some entertainment using sticks. Example they gave us toothpicks and asked to remove one of them to make an equation become 100 and so forth. So while eating, we were cracking our brains to solve it.


joey and me inside ikea


some of the showrooms


us again


me with the small lil' beer magnet selling outside the curve

3 of us watched a movie too in cathay cineplex. Vampire's assistant. I had no comment about this movie but I would not encourage you to watch it if you are planning to.

At night, reached penang at about 1230am.

2 movies in a row, 1 is good 1 is not

Wednesday! My official off day. Catch up 2 movies in one day. Did you hear about the morgans is a comedy but I don't find many funny scenes. The plot is quite typical and not very interesting. On the contrary, avatar is awesome!!! After a long wait, got to watch is at last. Very exciting and something new. I like. The forest in pandora so pretty!



Had lunch in ultimax cafe near queens. Ordered this pork curry rice served with salad (4.50). Normal stuff. Gonna go there again to try a few other dishes.

From teluk kumbar to batu ferringhi

This noon went to batu maung seafood but it's closed, therefore changed to the malay famous mee udang in teluk kumbar somewhere near the teluk kumbar police station. It's called salwa mee udang where the lil' shop is facing the sea. The cook/owner said it has been operating since 50 years ago.


view of the mee udang shop


in front of the shop


the mee udang has its special gravy with 4 big humongous prawns
they were super fresh! but come with a price (rm26/bowl)


crabs and 'dao de' fish, which were equally very fresh
both of these are rm82
Eating crabs is super messy, you wouldn't want to see how my hands turned into, lol


mmmm...

From teluk kumbar, we rounded the island to balik pulau, teluk bahang and reached batu ferringhi. Visited hard rock hotel at last after listening so much about it.
