Now, I'm in Black Canyon with Audrey, Chee Hoe, Pui Yee and Ann Li,just had our lunchs. The food here are delicious, though the prices are moderately expensive (but worth it!). I had Fettucini with Salted Fish and hot cappucino, Audrey had Rice Topped with Roasted Chicken in Garlic and Pepper with Mixed Veges in Gravy and Lime Juice, Ann Li had Spicy Stir-fried Fettucini with Seafood and hot Basil and iced lemon tea, Chee Hoe had Fettucini with Chicken Green Curry and Fruit Mint Tea Punch, and Spaghetti with Chicken Ham Sauce. Photos will be added later.

We've been talking now for almost 3 hours already. Our topics ranged from plain gossips to blogs, lollipop to Stef. We saw Evon, Siew Wei, Shu Xuan, and their friend, by the way.

Right now, we're shifting from Eric to Stef then back to Eric. Their lives just too much fun to talk about. If Stef read about this, she'll get paranoid for sure.

Til now, then.

By the way, thanks, Audrey for your laptop. She's asking for credit.

The Day The Earth Stood Still

Yesterday, I watched The Day The Earth Stood Still(TDTESS) with Chee Hoe, Pui Yee and Kah Meng. I must say, the trailer looked more interesting than the movie itself. While I have no problem with the movie's pacing, the actions leave me asking for more. And the ending. What a crappy ending.


And another thing I want to point out is how unrealistically beautiful Dr. Helen Benson is for an astrobiologist. Come on, if my Statistic lecturer was this pretty, I WOULDN'T skip her class no matter how unproductive and pointless her lectures are. I must said, Jennifer Connelly enjoyed playing either scientist or scientist's wife. She was Bruce Banner's scientist lover(what's her name?) in Ang Lee's 'The Hulk', portrayed John Nash's wife in 'A Beautiful Mind', as Dr. Helen in TDTESS, and as Charles Darwin's wife in the upcoming movie, 'Creation'. She does look like one, though.

After the movie, I went to have lunch at Food and Tea. I ordered Cheese Baked Rice with Fish Fillet. Quite tasteless but very filling.

Here I Am Again

Here I am again, trying to publish a blog. This, I believe, is my second-if not third-attempts to do so. It always begin with a passionate yearning to publish my thoughts and views and end with a four letters word: LAZY. Pathetic, I know. Well...Anyway, I'll try my best to keep this blog alive for as long as I can.

OK, my first thought. Yesterday, I went to Taiping, Perak with my family. The main reason was to bring my baby sister closer to nature aka going to the Taiping Zoo. Dark clouds presiding throughout our 45 minutes ride. A sign, really, telling us to abort the trip and just go back home. But, still...

Once we stepped our feet into the zoo,it started raining. Since we had paid RM 56 for the entrance tickets, we HAD to stay in the zoo. We spent about an hour more or less taking kiddie train ride around the zoo. Anyway, enough about the zoo.

As I said, the MAIN reason is the zoo. The SIDE reason is to shop. If you ever been to Taiping, you might wonder what is there to shop. Taiping is a small, sleepy town, sleepier than Ipoh. But you might be surprised. I know I was.

Besides the usual(The Store, Tesco), there was a new shopping complex known as Taiping Sentral. I'm amazed by some of the tenants inside the complex. There are Sushi King, Kenny Rogers, Old Town White Coffee, and most amazingly, at least for me, STARBUCKS COFFEE!!! They had STARBUCKS COFFEE!!! In Taiping!


And the cinema. YES, they had a cinema, and their movie listings are FAR better than the listing GSC Ipoh had. I'm like, WOW! And more attractions coming soon such as snooker, amusement centre, and karaoke.

Congrats, Taiping residents, you have another place to hang out.
