The Great White Shark


READ THIS POST - it was published at NST Online, Kit Siang reposted on his blog.

Beautifully written article, I totally admire Azmi’s style of writing. But I don’t agree with his point of view.

Find me one MP who is well prepared enough to counter Kit Siang’s allegations. If not what is a parliament meeting for? (to snooze and waste time perhaps…)



Old Town in Singapore!


I first wrote about Old Town eatery last year when mum brought me to the flagship store. Fell in love with their nice coffee and food since then. Everytime I go back to Ipoh, I will visit them at least once. And despite my earlier doubt that the shop would not survive, it has opened numerous branches all over the country and now it’s the favourite hangout place for every Malaysian (at least for me *grin*)!

And good news for Old Town fans, it has opened its first foreign outlet right here at Singapore Big Splash! I found out about it from SimplyHer magazine. And then finally discovered the actual location when I was on ECP highway the other day.

So today I “demanded” sucker and segnick to do dinner there because of a sudden craving for asam laksa and white coffee. We took 155 from Paya Lebar, stopped at St Patrick’s school bus stop, walked across two BIG streets to reach the beach, and then took another 45min (desperate) stroll to reach! Does it sound tiring? Haha, but I enjoyed the walk anyway - the beach was breezy and it’s relaxing just crapping! =)

It is the same warm ambience when we stepped in. Menu is the same although price is dollar for dollar. Segnick tasted his first Ipoh chicken hor fun. I got myself asam laksa (of course!) and sucker had a curry noodle. We shared a garlic toast and an icy polo bun. And oooh… the ice white coffee was simply SUPERB! I totally enjoyed myself there, and sms-ed mum just to “agitate” her. Hehe.

Needless to say, as anyone who doesn’t own a car understands, the journey to and fro was tiring! Which brings me back to my main point of writing this post…

SEGNICK BUY A CAR! I FULLY SUPPORT YOU (mentally) NOW!
*grin*

(no picture la…forgot to take photos when the food came…)



Believing…


Good things come from those who expect it and bad things leave those who leave it alone.

You know you are in deep need of moral support and strong willpower (to pick yourself up) when you start to read all these motivational sentences…



*chope*


Love ya all! *muaks*


Countdown with Me!


COUNTDOWN WITH ME!

Basket… He’s too free… I’m too surprised… It will be a good day on Thursday! *beam*

P/S: Feels like counting down to an explosion though…



Why bother having a resume?


If you’re remarkable, amazing or just plain spectacular, you probably shouldn’t have a resume at all.

I’m not sure whether I can truly believe in this argument. But I don’t mind giving it a try since everything is turning online now. In fact, I have submitted a totally unconventional resume before, only to be turned down because I didn’t have the design qualifications (they thought I have).

Nonetheless, this article by Seth Godin is a good read - an inspiring one. It has spurred me to really think of what I want to achieve with my website.



Geeky Map!


Cannot stand it! It’s too cool! It’s too brilliant! I am too geeky! *smile sheepishly*

So, how many applications you are using/ have used/ heard before?



A New Dawn


I was a busy girl yesterday night - hitting F5 every 5 mins on Malaysiakini, MSN-ing with my friends in Malaysia and calling parents now and then.

The votes were counted and results were announced yesterday. I didn’t follow through the whole night, but I know it will be a gratifying news. This morning I woke up, I refreshed Malaysiakini. And true to my belief, BN has done badly, losing 5 states to opposition - Kedah, Penang, Perak (my state! Kit Siang won in Ipoh Timur!), Selangor and Kelantan.

Thanks to the voters, we have created history for Malaysia, and a new hope for our future generation (at least for the next 4 years). I am confident that the opposition will do good for the country, after so many years of “battles” and “jails”. I also hope that BN will realise how much harm they have done to the country, how much money they have wasted for the so-called mega projects, and how many good people they have driven away from the country. I hope they truly wake up this time.

As quoted from Anwar, it is “a new dawn for Malaysia“.

Here’s the detailed live report from Malaysiakini. They have 6 mirror sites because the traffic was too huge. =)
