Hmm…first up, HAPPY DEEPAVALI to my bollywood frens. So yea, fireworks were shot all over da sky at da stroke of 12 and we could actually see colourful lights outside from my mom’s room.

And then she suggested…Hmm, got craving for PRAWN MEE lar…And I was like, CRAZY ar, who open prawn mee shop at 12am ??? She said, dunno…Kepong that BIG PRAWN sure got one rite…And I took some time to think for a moment and said…Hmm, ok lar, we go try ! (I was also a little hungry then)

We dressed up and I drove straight down to da coolling streets of KEPONG BARU…da place where I was NURTURED and RAISED. And gosh, to my surprise or should I say horror, da shop was indeed open. Parked da car and went straight to order our prawn mee. By da way, this aint an ordinary prawn mee shop. Is a PRAWN MEE specialty shop. I added dried oysters and pork ribs. My mom just wanted da normal one. Da nite was sooo cooling and da soup was just sweet and tasty. Wanna know da odd part ? Every 15 minutes people just flock to da shop and by 1am, da place was almost filled like a mamak store. Then we realized Chinese people are just gluttons !!! Ahaahah…:p

It was an UNUSUAL Saturday morning. Adrian got up like 7.30 in da MORNING to play BASKETBALL with his buddies at SMK Damansara Utama. He had fun climbing into government’s property ILLEGALLY.

So yea, everybuddy reached around 8.30am. Have to admit that is was one beautiful morning. Felt extra healthier feeding my skin VITAMIN D from da morning sun. Ironically, one man’s MEDICINE is another lady’s POISON. Adeline became LOBSTER RED man !!! Oh, down for da day, a lot of mosquito at da school premis.

So how was basketball ? Somewhat better than football I must say. I had loads of FUN dribbling and TRYING HARD to get da ball into da basket. Little paniking though with ppl screaming throw…THROW…throw…ahahaha !!! Ooo, but it was an enjoyable morning. Will I ever do it again ? Probably…Rite now gotta stay home and recuperate and let my aching arm loosen down !!! Back to da books !!! Urgh…:/

Wow, I slept like a baby till da next day man. Got up at 12pm on a beautiful sunny Saturday and I was back to work. Ahaha…gotta make sure WATERFALL PICNIC went smoothly. Made sure youths have transport and have food to eat. So chit chat with Yvelyn and i was ready to leave my house by 1 something. Went and pick up Shawn from Kepong and go to PIZZA HUT and TAR PAU 2 large pizzas for only RM29…Ramadhan promo it seems. By da way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MESELF today

Reached FRIM at 3pm and off we went to da 3rd level of da waterfall and settled there. I thought we had a really good spot. I already named it YPCG FALL…ahaha…oh i meant EMPANGAN LYN !!! It was a fun-filled trip with cool water, fresh air and loads of food. It was a get-away for da youths and a reward as well for workin hard during da 2 weeks of car washing. Took nice pictures, played water and even created our own mini waterfall. Move rock here and there…restructure da place to make cooler waterwall. I had fun man !!! And by 5 something we had to leave cause it started to show signs of drizzle. Yvelyn wanna take us there again so I cant wait to claim that spot of ours again. Aahaha

And then was home by 5 something. Got ready…took a good bath and dress up well for LAFITE (French pronounciation please) in Shangri-La Hotel. Mom booked an exclusive place. Da restraunt sits 20 tables only. Ok, it was exactly like Anthony Bordain in discovery travel and living man. Fine dining is no joke. I thought I could be like Jamie Oliver or Asha being a food critique but I realize I’m far from it man. One spoon and one bite…when da juice oozz out from da food…it sends you to paradise and you just dunno what to say.

So wat was on da menu ??? Oh, b4 that… everyday will have its own menu. It was a 7 course dinner. Again, fine dining…serving is in TASTING portion. Oh, another cool thing I realize, even da food mentioned in da menu needs REFERENCES. As in da name of da person created it, da place and da year. That was so interesting man. Anywayz…the following was in my course.

1) Cauliflower soup, cauliflower tips and croutons. 2) Oven baked stuffed vegetables salad with fresh walnuts. 3) Citrus and pepper crusted sea bream with wild mushrooms, wild rocket and veal jus. 4) Roasted lamb loin piquillos with lemon perfumed onion chutney 5) French & European cheese selection from Ceneri (I chose blue cheese, cream cheese and spicy cheese) served with dried fruits, grapes and walnut bread 6) Grapefruit granite 7) Thick caramelized apple tart upside down and home-made caramel ice-cream.

Oh, please please do not judge da food based on da description. They were really really good and tasty and mouth-watering. Ooo…it was an experience of a lifetime. Da bill ??? Aaahhaa…you really dun wanna know !!! Ahaha, even got da chef’s autograph signed on da menu which I was allowed to bring home. Walked passed da hotel lounge and wow…2 sexy chicks were dancing and shaking sexily on da stage above da bar…thats rite..da stage was build on top of da bar. Sat there for a while, listening to da music and just enjoy da ambience. Then my dad ask us to leave so we called it an night. A memorable 21st birthday ??? TOTALLY :p

Mood     : Thankful                                    Music     : "Thankful" by Kelly Clarkson

Hmm…where do I even begin ??? Gosh…you GUYZ have no idea how MEMORABLE and SPECIAL da event truly was. Ok, I’ll admit, ALLAN did caught me almost tearing once when I opened my eyes, and I saw da candles with all of you standing in front of me, smilling and wishing me HAPPY BIRTHDAY. And yes, I dunno izit da way my mom read it but yes…da messages and wishes you guyz left behind in my bedroom really touched me deeply and I dunno how else I can express my gratitude towards you all. I so wanna give you all a BIG BEAR HUG rite now !!! You guyz rock !!! Oh, when I said I had facial spasm smilling non-stop…I really mean it…it hurt like crazy !!!

Da surprises ??? Well, you all got me there. MEDAN my foot…ahaha…so kena bluffed man. Just wanna let you all know that I APPREACITE all da trouble you guyz went into just to make da whole event smooth sailing and fun for me. Is really something DISTINCTIVE and UNIQUE and CREATIVE and OUT OF DA WORLD. Yes, it passed thru da ACID TEST (only marketing students need to know) !!! Did I have fun…neh…I dint have fun…I HAD AN AWESOME TIME. Remember how tired I was after skating ? Yeap, every surprises you guyz gave just pump another extra voltage of energy into meself and that really kept me going till da last bit of da nite.

Da SKATING…da dinner…da grand finale…is like an episode one after another and it keeps getting better and better. Thank you so so much guyz and HUGZ !!!

TUESDAY (11th October) - Received my 1st suprise present from CEDRICO my fantastico buddy. We went to TAIPAN USJ for sight-seeing and TEA after a gruesome tiring day in uni.

Wednesday (12th October) - Ooo, James, Jim and myself were GLAD we did WELL in our IM presentation. Met KAH Leong online at night for a very interesting yet crappy chat session…AS ALWAYZ !!! He was really KIND to offer a helping hand, putting together my 21st b’day bash with all his "SECREAT AGENTS" without me lifting a finger. I handed it all to him and was able to go thru a smooth week of IM assignment without worrying bout anything. That was COOL !!! Gosh, he is really GOOD !!! :p

Thursday (13th October) - Went for Whassup at Godpa’s house and received a blessing ang pow. It dint just end there, went home like close to 1am and guess what ADELINE BROUGHT me as a birthday gift ? CEDRIC da entertainer. That was da coolest gift I’ve ever received in my entire life man. Thankz ADELINE (they waited for almost 2 hours for me to get home). Cedric bunked over at my place and I was really glad to have him around ACCOMPANYING me throughout da morning chatting and laughfing while doing IM assignment. That RASCAL really had fun kacauing me :p

Friday (14th October) - My birthday eve. Wasn’t in my mind at all cause we were helping each other out doing da IM assignment report. Finally it was finished by 3pm sharp. Was truly a rollercoaster ride but it was a PLEASURE and PRESSURE working with you guyz (James & Jim)…ahahaha.

And so it began. All met at SUNWAY SKATING RING there. While waiting, I had da opportunity to dance on da arcade dance machine with Koon Chan. Tiring but fun. !!! Then I belanja everybuddy for a fun-filled skating experience. It was really fulfilling. Gosh, YVONNE was like a skating machine !!! 5 gals and 5 guyz…how PERFECT can that be ??? KAH Leong, Wei SHEONG, Ming Yang, Cedric and ME… Yvonne, SHIOU Wei, Adeline, JUNG and Koon Chan. Glad I still remember how to skate but Cedric said I skated like a COCKCROACH…of all insects (sigh) !!!

And then, somebody which I cant remember WHO…suggested we adjourn to "MEDAN" for a sumptious dinner. All good FREAKIN actors man. I have to admit, I was really conned into thinking DA MEDAN in uni. Da VIOS experience was a HIGHLIGHT man. So cool. And we arrived at "MEDAN" (Salmon Steak Restaurant) near Taylor’s. Surprise ??? Yea, we had two guest appearance made by ALLAN & SEAN SEAN…that was a cool surprise as well. Was so EXCITED, even when Elaine and Jeremy stop by JUST to say HI,  I thought they were attending my party as well…ahaha…damn malu man !!! Da food was good and da FELLOWSHIP was GREAT. I had Chicken Au Chambatin (french pronounciation better) !!!

Just when you thought it was over when everybody said BYE and left, I got blindfolded by Jung and we had a wild journey to a secret destination. Screaming and playing guessing games in da car. Drama man. And guess what ? We finally reached MUTIARA DAMANSARA, at a really nice and cosy veranda opposite da mamak area. I was still blindfolded then and when it was taken off away from me…OH MY GOODNESS, EVERYBODY & EVERYONE who were with me da whole afternoon and evening were there standing in front of me smiling and screaming SURPRISE and wishing me HAPPY BIRTHDAY…wow…that was an AWESOME moment. I was SPEECHLESS to da max..cause when you see something so beautiful, you just wanna SHUT UP and enjoy da moment. Not forgetting my name was on da floor spelled out BEAUTIFULLY with candles. Cut cake, made some WISHES and had da pleasure to make some speech and FEED everybuddy cake.

Ok…here’s da WACKY part of da evening. I was blindfolded for da last time and da last thing i remember seeing after it was taken off from me was a freakin blue colour waterballoon and cake. Yeap, kena attack kau kau by my BUDDIES to da max. Even the nicest and trusted frens of mine all without havin 2nd thoughts blasted water balloons at me !!! Aahaha…Drenched and facialed cake…I received da "BLESSINGS" anyhow.

Oh, just for da note, for a person who enjoys cake a lot and celebrating his 21st b’day, all i had was one SMALL BITE before having da whole slice all over my face…ahaha !!! Ok, back to da story, they were really NICE enough to leave one waterballoon for me to attack 11 people. Power rite ? Ahaha, just kidding, I was allowed to use dat balloon to attack one person. Who did I attack ? Well, no one, I could not do it because everyONE of my BUDDIES gave a lot of EFFORT and SWEAT in putting da whole BASH together. So I just smashed da ballon on da floor close to JUNG…why JUNG ??? Cause she gave me HELL in da car…ahahaha :p

Went home soaking wet and oily, I rushed upstairs to my mom’s room. Couldn’t wait to tell her bout my HAPPY DAY !!! Little, did I know, my parents were part of da surprise as well. That is POWER man…After half an hour of updates in my mom’s room…my mom asked…"You think is finally over?" I was like………and my eyes were like popping out and I said…HARRRRRR, got more ? She said, go to your room and see…I went and I found a nicely wrapped blueish present (so matching with my bed) modelling itself there with a card. Just a reminder, I was wet and oily. So I took it all to my mom and asked her to read da card for me and open da pressie as well.

We really had fun reading all da HEARTFELT messages and all my mom could say was…You’ve got really good frens huh…and I just smiled cause I almost teared hearing my mom reading all my BUDDIES messages. Opened up da pressie and found a really INTERESTING picture slit inside da TROPICANA LIFE wallet and was checking out da shirt from WH. Liked it a lot. Need a new wallet for sure…

My mom herself couldn’t tahan da SUSPENCE liao so she asked…Can you handle another surprise ? I said…erm, maybe not but bring it on. She jumped out of bed and went to da wardrobe. Took out a familiar wrapped box and I was like…OMG…OMG…OMG…no, it can’t be…is not here yet…how can it be…I whispered…izit… :p

Ooo…seriously, it was nerve wrecking as da time drew closer and closer towards my turn for da oral exam. I mean, I’ve read what I really need to read and to be honest, there are some things I din’t even bother lookin up through cause it was just too much information that I cant store. Yes, sounds silly isnt it knowing Dr.Khong can ask ANYTHING and EVERYTHING under the SUN.

So yea…12.30pm was supposed to be my turn but we need to be at his office half an hour early so that we’ll be more nervous and freaking out while waiting for our turn…ahaha…just kidding. Anywayz, at 12.10, he got out of his office and told me…give me 5 minutes yea, need to go take a walk and go pee. He needed a break I guessed. So i waited for him lor. He took 10 minutes by da way.

So it was finally my turn. Went into da office, locked da door and with a FAKE-CALMING-PROFESSIONAL-SMILE, I took my seat rite in front of him. He was like…Hmm, Adrian (cincai flippin da question paper here and there)…Ok lar…we’ll make this fast. Question 6 please. I was like…Oh…mission statements…bla everything out. Ok, Question 3…I was like…oh Acid test huh..and I bla everything out…Question 9…Oh, why do companies need mission statements….think for a while….and bla bla bla….

Ok last one…question 5 please…I was like HUH ??? Errrm….OH…hmm…BUT…err…(shaking already)…ok..i THINK da answer is NO…so erm…WHY I SAY NO…hmm…(saved by da phone) !!! Shit, my mind went chaos…how leh…How I know whether got dangers or not in developing mission statements ??? Err…somemore what are da issues to consider leh when developing statements ??? (He puts down da phone)…and I started showing him my real heartfelt. Sir, dunno lar, to me if da company just follow da acid test cleary and not simply come up with pointless statements..there wont be much problem kua ?  With his poker face…he asked..anything else you wanna say ? I said..no more liao. He took his calculator and handed me my marks. I got a distinction. 72.3% !!! He told me…yealor, like you said…it goes back to da acid test. You should have gone thru da test one by one and gave me examples. Thats all was required. Anywayz, I know you know what you’re talking about so ok lor. Waliao…all sweat broke loose man. So relieving and all. And we had time to chat somemore cause my session was a quick one. :p

Is located at Damansara Utama and I’ve been eyeing on it since da day I could drive myself to uni. Alwayz pass by da shop whenever I’m on da way home along LDP. So yea…took Godparents and God sistas there to try it out. I have to say, it does live up to its name. Crispy and tasty. Kepong’s wan is crispy and fatty. Which wan I like ? I like both…ahahaha !!!

Was another tiring yet fun day in church today. Yeap, Car Wash Episode 2 - The Return Of Da CAR WASHERS…Muahahah…!!! Anywayz, is a weekend and we Malaysians just love to go out jalan-jalan dun we ? Or izit just me and my mom ???

Today, we’ll be talking bout SKY HIGH !!! I’ll give it a 7.5/10. Is a DISNEY movie by da way, so I’m pretty sure its NOT gonna dissapoint any movie maniacs. What izit about ? Its da kinda movie that changes your mindsets and outlooks on things even in da real world. Hmm, come to think of it, DISNEY movies usually do things like that to us huh !!! If only those BOMBERS get hold of some disney movie like THE LION KING…THE LITTLE MERMAID…PETER PAN…SNOW WHITE and even A BUGZ LIFE…I think da world would be a better place !!! Aahahha…

Gosh,  as usual…after watching all these superhero kinda movie, I soooooooo WISH I had one of da powers !!! When I watched X-MEN & Fantastic 4…I wished I had PYRO (Fire) POWERS. Now after watching SKY HIGH…I wished I was enrolled in SKY HIGH academy with my PYRO powers. Unfortunately, someone with dat power has already been casted for da show. URGH !!! Well, SUPERHERO or SIDE-KICKS, there’s definitely a HERO in all of us As usual, dun wanna give out much here. Go watch it and HAVE FUN !!! Gotta go back to my VIVA VOCE…:(

WHOA, what a day. Definitely a MOVIE MARATHON !!! Been wanting to watch these two movies for some time now. Finally got da chance this evening. So yea…we catched da 9pm show for THE MYTH at GSC and got out at 11 something. Was on da way to da car park and we had to pass by TGV… yeap was pretty tempted to watch FLIGHTPLAN. So we decided to try our luck to see if there is still seats available and to our surprise, da booking tickets were RELEASED at da perfect timing so we decided to hop in. All I can say is da SEATS were GOOD and da MOVIES were GREAT !!!

Ok, movie critic time. Let’s start with THE MYTH. I would give a 8/10 points for da show. I thought da movie was ENTERTAINING yet INTERESTING. Da scenaries were MAGNIFICIENT and da ladies…gosh…where do I even begin ? KIM HEE SEON was GORGEOUS and MALLIKA SHERAWAT was just darn VOLUPTIOUS. Dun judge them base on da movie poster. They look far more beautiful on da silver screen. Wish Mallika had a bigger role. Nevertheless, she definitely left a lasting impression. So what’s da story about ? Put it this way, is basically bout a JOURNEY so I have to start from A all da way to Z which is gonna be like forever in this blog. One thing for sure, if you guyz out there enjoy THE MUMMY…NATIONAL TREASURE and INDIANA JONES… go watch da THE MYTH. Is really FUN ! PLEASE STAY BACK FOR DA BLOOPERS !!!

FLIGHTPLAN ??? Well, all I can say is after watching da show, I can finally sleep well tonite. Really, is just all about SITTING THRU waiting for da ANSWER !!! Answer to what question ? WHAT HAPPEN TO HER DAUGHTER ??? Ooo…I can imagine da suspence killing everyone rite now !!! Totally TRILLING and MYSTERIOUS !!! By da way, I have to hand it to JODIE FOSTER…she’s really good in playing da GOING NUTZ MOM character. So talented. Errmm…one thing I noticed…try putting her facial expressions side-by-side with Lindsay Lohan’s. They look rather similar. SIDE TRACK…Jodie Foster was da original FREAKY FRIDAY actress. Thats rite…she played dat role once when she was younger.

First and foremost, God really bless us with a wonderful weather. Thank you Lord. Thick clouds blocked da sun from scorching us and relaxin breeze just surrounded da area.

Everybody worked hard as a team and that really made da washing and cleaning so much easier. It was fun and I’m lookin forward for da next car wash day. Today was much of a TRIAL & ERROR day and I’m pretty sure we’ll be able to wash more cars next week and be more efficient !!! :p
