Liverpool, Here I Come

My ex-colleague, Shamsul will be flying to Liverpool to further his
studies. Therefore, before he fly, we organized a seafood dinner together at Bagan Lalang.
It is somewhere near Sepang and before Tanjung Sepat.
Congratulations to him and good luck.

Since my friend, Poh, drove his truck there, so we managed
to persuade him to take us for a ride along the coast of Bagan Lalang.
It was a pleasant and unforgettable experience. Feel like wanna ask
him to take us into the jungle for more adventure. Thank you Poh.

Dedicated to my Boo

This lyrics that I picked up from Jack Johnson was specially dedicated to my boo. Wanna thanks her for all the time that she spend with me.

There's no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard
No song I could sing But I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Love is the answer,
At least for most of the questions in my heart
It's not always easy and Sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing its always better when we're together
Its always better when we're together
Look at the stars when we're together
Its always better when we're together
And all of these moments
Just might find there way into my dreams tonight
But I know that theyll be gone
When the morning light sings
And brings new things
But tomorrow night you see
That theyll be gone too
Too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find there way
Into my day to day scene
Ill be under the impression
I was somewhere in between
With only two Just me and you
Not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be
We'll Sit beneath the mango tree
Its always better when we're together
We're somewhere in between together
Its always better when we're together
Yeah, its always better when we're together
I believe in memories
They look so, so pretty when I sleep
Hey now, and when I wake up,
You look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time,
And there is no song I could sing
And there is no, combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing
We're Better together

Forever and ever, I’ll love you.

Click

Yesterday (Wednesday), I went to watch this movie called CLICK at TGV Jusco, Seremban. It starred Adam Sandler, as the main actor with Kate Beckinsale.
It was a good movie (rating 5 out of 5) and the joke was totally exciting and funny. I have discovered some funny and good things about this movie.

The funny things were this sentenced:-

1) Britney Spears has given birth to her 23rd child and her husband, Kevin Federline will look for a job now.

2) Michael Jackson was the first man to clone himself and right now are suing his clone due to he is molesting him.

And the good lesson I learned:-

1) Family First, Work later

2) Honeymoon First

So, for those who haven’t watched this movie, please do so because it is better than THE DA VINCI CODE.

Leatherback Turtle or NoMoreComeback Turtle

Last Sunday, there was this news about the species of Leatherback Turtle on the front page of The Star Newspaper, not Nanyang Siang Pau or Tamil Nessan, but The Star.The sad news is that they are reported totally extinct in Malaysia due to no more sighting of them landing at Rantau Abang, Terengganu and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) declares that the beleaguered leatherback of Terengganu was “effectively extinct”. But, this was denied by the Turtle and Marine Ecosystem Centre (Tumec) of Malaysia - the national agency mandated to save the turtle – that the turtles were still laying eggs and technically not extinct yet. According to them, to date, there have been five nesting by two leatherback turtles documented this season on the beaches of Dungun, Terengganu and their exact locations are being kept secret.
While agreeing that the population of leatherback turtles, which nest in a few beaches in the world, is on the decline, TUMEC insisted that it was not extinct but merely critically-endangered. In Rantau Abang, the statistics reveal the tragic fact that nestings have dwindled from the thousands in the 1960s to a meager average of 30 per season since 2000; a drastic 90% reduction in around two decades. It may be a case of semantics perhaps, but the fact remains that the majestic leatherback nestings that spawned a turtle-watching tourism industry from the 1960s right up to the 1980s will go down as a sad chapter in the nation’s environmental history. The eggs laid since 2001 did not produce any hatchlings because they were not fertilized by a male turtle. Scientists predict that for every one thousand hatchlings produced; only one will reach adulthood to sustain the population.
This was a sad sad situation for all of Malaysian and generally to the world. This species of turtle must not be extinct due to it is the biggest turtle in the world.
After my experienced being the volunteer for the Ma Daerah Turtle Sanctuary for Green Turtle, I have totally begin to like all of the turtle species and vow to myself that I will make sure that future generations still can see this turtle. How? I am not sure, but one way to help is not to consume any turtle eggs. And I do hope that many of us can have their picture taken as attach.

Ah Beng shirt and pants – RM20
Petrol and Tol – RM60
Challet – RM30
Turtle experiences - Priceless,
For others, there’s Mastercard and Visacard.

Superciliousness Chelsea

Last Sunday was the best moment before the start of the EPL season.
Community Shield Live Score: - Chelsea 1 Liverpool 2
I was not too surprised to see the result as I believe Liverpool will pound the super egotistical Maurinho and his man.
Well done Liverpool, but, this doesn’t mean that Liverpool is my team.
GUNNERS ARE THE KING OF ENGLAND.
Chelsea was gunned down by their arrogance and thus it proves that money isn’t everything and Maurinho sucks.
Lampard who?
After this game, I believe they will not be as strong as last year and many teams can beat them.
Arsenal and Man United should be able to beat them.
Viva La Gunners……..
And I can’t wait for Sheffield United to beat Chelsea.
And now I hate Chelsea more than I hate Man United.

Sunday is my CSI Day. Whole day watching Astro.

IF they can, why can’t Malaysian?

Good show and good food.

Working on Saturday

Now is 9am in the morning of 12th August 2006.
Before that, would like to wish my best pal Luke Happy 26th Birthday.
May all the luck be with you. Why the hell I am working today? Well, I need to support production as they are running full today. Today considered under OT, which I can get around RM80.
Working on Saturday totally sucks some time, unless you really really got nothing to do on this day. Otherwise, I rather do other thing than come back to work. Tomorrow is Sunday, and I’ll have only one day to rest. Not sure enough or not, but for sure, I’ll sleep like pig. Chow….

Friday

Yahoooo!!! Why i say that? Cause today is Friday and the weekend is coming.
And football is starting back on Astro.
EPL is the best and Arsenal is the KING.

BabaNyonya

Are you Malay? This is a frequently question that I received from human beings when I tell them I am a BABANYONYA. I wonder why until now, there are people out there who still don’t know the history of Malaysia that have this BABANYONYA or it's scientific name Peranakan Community in Malaysia, especially in Melaka and Penang. Have they extinct? The answer is totally no. In fact, we are conquering Malaysia little by little. For those who still not sure which Alien Category are we or from which planet we come from, please refer to the history of this precious community.

BABANYONYA or PERANANKAN is the term used popularly for descendants of early Chinese immigrants to the Nusantara region, including the British Straits Settlements of Singapore, Malacca and Penang, and the Dutch controlled island of Java among other areas, who have partially adopted Malay customs in an effort to be assimilated into the local communities.
The word of PERANAKAN is also used commonly to describe Indonesia Chinese. In both BM & Bahasa Indonesia, PERANAKAN means descendant. BABA is referring to the male descendants and NYONYA is the female. Most PERANAKAN are of Hokkein ancestry, although fair denominations of them are of the Teochew or Cantonese descent. The language of the PERANAKAN, Baba Malay (Bahasa Melayu Baba), is a dialect of the Malay Language which contains many Hokkein works.

The BABANYONYA were partially assimilated into the Malay culture, especially in food, dress and language used, while retaining some of the Chinese traditions and culture, like religion, name, folk medicine and festival celebrations, thereby creating a new kind of mixed culture of their country of origin with local. Most of the Peranakan are not Muslim, but Buddhist and Christians, and have retained the ancestral worship tradition of the Chinese, especially of their wedding ceremony is largely based upon the Chinese tradition.
