Super Malio...

I stumbled across this clip on the net and it was about a spoof based on the video game characters from super mario... anyone who has ever played mario knows the usual plot.. mario goes out to save the princess... eats mushroom.. leaped over a bunch of other mushrooms... jumps over fire spitting dragon boss and kill it.. then saves princess...

the plot is 'almost' the same here.... have fun.

Rainy Season

Rained non stop these few days especially past saturday. Rained since morning till night... a few 'hotspot' for flood has been flooded as usual.

This morning I went pass the road which I saw was flooded last night and a few police car blocked the path and seems that they sent out rescue team there.

There are a few people cleaning and sweeping off the mud of the road with water canon. 

Mud all over the road.. yuck

I like rainy season's atmosphere... cool, calm... quiet. As long as there's no flood. : ) Reminds me of weather like Europe eh... : ) 

Dentist Visit

Finally arrived the day to have my teeth cleaned. Felicia introed me Penang Dental Surgery, so I went ahead and scheduled an appointment there last month. Mine was today as I wanna make it on weekends and not weekdays so.. there I was. The last time I went to see a dentist was 3 years ago.. gosh... time flies. Now my daily routine of brushing my teeth has been increase from a mere 2 - 3 mins to 6 or 7 mins.... giving it a good scrub everytime I brush my teeth. I was quite nervous during the whole process as dentist used the water canon thing to clean away the plak around some areas of my teeth while her able assistant on the other hand operated 2 sucktion device to suck out waters from my mouth.

Whole operation = RM70... she asked me to come back for another round... gosh... she said my gum was not good and it has to be cleaned the 2nd time. ~($)~

kids... keep your teeth clean... LOL

Mooncake celebration

Well, mooncake festival is just around the corner and our team came up with the idea of throwing this mooncake tea session similar to the one we had last year.

Here's the one we've bought and a free smaller ones

I forgot to buy the mooncake so some of us went to shopping complex after our lunch to grab a few of it. This time a lot of us participated compared to last year cos it involved team members from 2 teams.

YS actually took some of the lantern we've bought and sort of decorated the nearby fake plant in the pantry to add to the mood of the festival!... hahahahha... nice touch!

Here's some of the snaps during the break. Enjoy~

Here's the main collection, noticed that there's 1 being sliced up already while others remain intact. I've requested them to be arranged this way and let me snap a few shots first b4 the hungry one destroys their beauty~... admire first.. then only eat ma...

Lots of mooncakes~

I never get tired of looking at them here... so colorful... so cheerful

See the special ones are those lantern shaped boxes ... bought by Mandy

Product catalog shots, finance selection.. hahaha

This is the pre-slicing moment... the mooncakes awaited their fate... can see YS snapping a few shots also

Sorting out the moon cakes and cutting them in 8 pieces each

Lychee fruit flavour mooncake by YS, its quite tasty

Jelly fruity mooncakes... somehow nowadays a lot of mooncakes just shaped like one but doesn't really taste like the traditional ones

Tada~ my selection, snow skin purple er.. i forgot what flavour is this.. but its nice :Þ

All of us had a great time, I've sampled quite a lot of the mooncakes and they do taste a bit sweet if you didn't take with any water... All in all a great time and thanks to everyone who made it happened!

Last but not least!... our happy latern mooncakes part-time promoters! Mandy and HP wishing all a happy mooncake festival ahead! *claps*

When 2 souls comes together - Aun Soon's wedding

Cheese for the newly wed!

Attended my good ol' college's pal - Aun Soon's wedding lunch on 31st Aug 2008. Got a call earlier of the week from him inviting me over to the lunch. He asked me to help out to send invitation out to some of our college mates and so I did. Mailed a couple of friends but a lot of them said it was too short notice as it was on the Sunday of the next week which is only 5 - 6 days apart. Well, I have no particular appointment or events that I couldn't risk cancelling off for this event and so I went on.

here's the DIY GPS

Followed the map that he gave me, I drew it on a piece of paper and went straight out. I'm not that familiar with the road outside Penang but I did travelled there last time on assignment from my previous company so I roughly know 50% of the road leading towards the restaurant.

Golden Phoenix Seafood Restaurant

Went on with my guts and the trusty map, as soon as I've reached the cross junction near Auto City, I wipped out the map and held it on my hand on top of my steering wheel (kids dun try this at home). As I looked out for turnings and traffic lights I turn my map accordingly just as a map like a GPS! wahhahahaa... human-gps I was... and frankly, the map was quite accurate and with my superior navigation skills, I've reached the destination with over 50mins to spare. Called Aun Soon and waited for him to arrive while I took a nap inside my car under a shade.

Lots of people... all whom I never met... I think there's only like... 3% of the people here that I knew..

Soon, HY arrived behind my car and there A.S. was around 12:30pm in his coat looking at his best. : ) Went out of the car with HY and approached the restaurant. We're among the earliest bunch, went in and sat down in one of the few tables allocated for us. I chose the one near to A.S.'s table to have a good view of the center stage as well.

There's 2 projectors and slide on each side of the center stage displaying the photos of A.S.'s wedding photo album

After awhile, I saw my other college pal - Boon Kong as well. boy oh boy, time sure flies... its been like.. let's see.... over 6 years since we last met during diploma years. Chatted a while with him while waited for the event to kick start.

Around 1something, the MC announced the official starting of the event and each of us stood up, clapped and welcomed the newly weds : ) yay... quite frankly my tummy agreed too and start growling all over the place.. hahahhaa ..

Well, unfortunately I didn't take any of the photos of the food but I did snapped some of the events that took place. Have a look below :

Group photo

Center stage, a lady who sang some nice tunes for us while we're enjoying the food

Well, even A.S.'s twin brother went up stage and sang 2 songs.. his voice is very much like A.S. hahaha.. talk about twins

Champagne pouring ceremony

More...

They're forced to kiss each other for 10secs straight after A.S.'s colleagues shouted and requested for it... haha

the cross-arm champagne drinking ceremony.. not sure how to say it in English... I just came up with that term. hehehe

Yum Seng part with their family members

Yum Seng shout part 2

Yum Seng shout cont. part 3 (with my cup and 'good' sign)

In the end, Aun Soon also went on stage and sang 2 songs to entertain the crowd, seeing that he's a talented musician himself... what would the lunch be without him participating in the singing.. hehehe...



See that guy who looks so familiar with A.S? its his twin brother : )

Last but not least, a Warmest and heartiest CONGRATULATIONS to Aun Soon and his wife!!!

P/S: some of the 'clearer' shots were taken by H.Y.'s N82... over my cacat hp camera.. hahahaha... thanks!
