Puss In Boots????

I think cats loves me.. I'm not simply tooting my own horn but seriously I'm not joking. Back in my hometown in Kuching (dah la da name of my state is named cat in Bahasa Melayu), cat's always seem to come over to my house to give birth and end up my mom just keeps them as pets. Now I'm all the way in Malacca, the same thing happened (except the giving birth part).

There's this very huge white with gray spots male cat, always comes to my house to have a drink. It looked very well taken care of but I don't know who the owner is. So what the heck, I'll just let it have it's drink. A few days past, the cat came more frequent and it became more at home in my house. It can just waltz into my house like nobody's business and climb onto the couch and just lay there. Soon the cat unofficially became our cat. We call him Sam. He's a funny cat, especially when he sleeps. He sleeps like a human. Everytime when he sleeps, I'll take a picture of the position he is in. Below are a few. Enjoy..

P/S: Non of the positions were made by any human. It was done entirely by the cat himself.




The pictures above was when he was fidgeting cause we were watching tv too loud. He was actually trying to cover his ears..


This one was when the ceiling light was on. It was too bright for him too sleep so he covered his eyes.



Yes, he has his own teddy.


I was taking a nap one afternoon on the living room mattress and that silly cat can just waltz up behind me and join me sleep.



Cute ain't he... I think so too. ;p

Malacca Trip Part II

Wow it's been a long time since I last posted something here.. Anyways, I thought of returning by starting off with my Malacca Trip Part II. As you have read in my Part I, my beloved friend Annabel dropped by Malacca to hang out with me. Here's the scoops on what we did on day two of her trip.

On this very bright clear sky day, I've asked her does she still remember her M'sian History? Especially the history on Malacca??? She replied "I kinda remember a lil.." with a grin on her face. So I asked her can she guess where am I taking her today.. She gave me a I have no bloody idea look but tried to guess anyways.. "The fort???" she asked.. Yup!! That's right on the dot. I plan to bring her to see the famous A'Famosa Fort that we only read and saw pictures of in our history books way back in highschool..

We were greeted with the view of the ever majestic A'Famosa Entrance guarded by two cannons on each side. As usual, when we reach somewhere new we take out our trusty camera phone and start snapping all the way. I thought we should first of all do some cam-whoring activity.






Then Annabel found out (which I kinda forgot to mention) that we had to climb a ton of stairs to get to the top of the hill to the main fortress. She was about to reject the whole idea of climbing up but I assured her it is worth it when you reach the top. So up the stair we go under the hot sunny day.


This is the view of the main fortress from the A'Famosa Entrance.



This is the inside of the fortress.


This is what I meant. Isn't it a perfect view of the sea.... Can you imagine hundred of years ago, all those buildings down below was once the sea. The sea is still there. Just look past all the buildings and you can see the blue waters.



I think this was built by the Dutch rulers way back when. (Is it now??????)



This is the very first fire truck used in Malaya.


After taking in all the beautiful views and refreshing cooling air on the fortress hill, we headed to another historical place called Stadthuys Building. It's red and was built by the Portuguese.


Here's the very red Christ Church. People still do masses here every Sunday.



Here's the fountain in front of the church. There's actually a history behind this fountain too but I can't remember what was it. I'm really bad at memorizing history. ;p


A full view of how the fountain looks like. Feels like in Italy. hahaha..


The red clock tower to tell everybody in Malaya/Malaysia the time. I heard a story from a Malaccan friend, he said that long ago the Portuguese built this clock tower for the Malayan villagers. When the clock bell rings at night (I can't remember at what time), everyone must go home and shut their doors. No one was allowed out after curfew. I found it a good way to reduce crimes in Malaya. What for stay out so late. It's not like there's any clubs in those days. ;p By the way, the clock tower still works til today. You can definitely still hear the clock bell from 5 km away..




Tired and exhausted, Annabel had tones of fun and she got to take pictures at all the historical monuments that we saw in our history books. In short, she had a blast in Malacca with the food especially and I do really hope she would like to drop by again. There's more to show you here. Love you loads Annabel!!! :x

CJ 7

Last Saturday I went to watch CJ 7. Here's what I have to say about the movie.. Blady damn nice!!!!! I give it 4 1/2 stars... Directed by this person below, the brilliant Stephen Chow, the story line was very entertaining. And as usual in every movie he makes, there's family moral value hidden in it. You just have to pay attention and you'll figure it out.



In the movie, Stephen Chow acts as a poor father trying hard to provide only the best for his son. His son on the other hand, has to cope with insults by his fellow friends and teachers just because he is poor. Here Stephen Chow is trying to show to viewers how poor people all around the world are treated by the society. He also wants to show that even poor people have dreams to succeed in life. Even though you are poor, you must never forget your moral values.




There's still someone out there who cares...


Wanting so much to be accepted by his fellow friends, Dicky (the son) begs his father to buy him the latest toy on the market. Off went his father to find a toy for his son, instead he found something extraordinary that would change their lives.




The father found this little cute furry thingy. Yes as you can see it has powers. What kind of powers I won't tell. You have to go watch it yourself. Just as a heads up, in this movie there are some spoofs from Stephen Chow's previous movies. Wonder if you can figure it out the spoofs come from which movie??? ;p Sounds interesting yet? Go catch the movie in the nearest cinema. A must see..

Malacca Trip: Part I

Hello all... Gong Xi Fa Chai!!! heheheh... Is everyone gaining weight yet??? Nah just joking.. I don't want anyone gaining weight... Neways, my post today is about my dear friend, Annabel's Malacca Trip. Actually she was just accompanying her friend down. Her friend is going to do her practical here in Malacca and she came early to hunt for house. So while her friend met up with another friend of theirs to go house hunting, I stole Annabel and brought her to stay over at my house and start my mission to feed her with Malaccan Food.. hehehhee...

First destination and food is the ever famous Hainanese Chicken Rice Balls situated at Jonker Walk. Its the best in Malacca. A small corner shop (didn't get a chance to snap a pic of the shop) is always pack with customers at lunchtime. They open at 10:00am til 2:00pm. Sometimes they finish by 1:00pm. Really selling like hot cakes.





Handsome Tauke in charge of chopping the chickens.





Shop always filled with customers from the moment they open til they close. There are still more customers lining up outside waiting for a place to sit. Crazy onot..



I knew we wouldn't get a sit so i decided to ta pau home.



Are you drooling yet??? ;p

After a delicious meal, we rested coz we both woke up too early. Later that evening, I brought Annabel to Jonker Walk again. But this time Jonker Walk really comes alive.




I thought of walking around Jonker Walk first but Annabel said that she was hungry. So I took her to the best place to eat Baba Laksa and Baba Cendol..


This is Nyonya Asam Laksa. Baba Laksa was sold out. The difference between these two is just that coconut milk is added into Baba Laksa.


Refreshing Nyonya Cendol. Just look at the coconut milk and gula melaka.. Yummy..



Annabel enjoying her food.

A quick snap of the shop before our next food hunt.

I asked Annabel does she still have room for dessert?? She said why not.. So what the heck lets stuff more food in her.. *evil grin* I suggested fried ice cream. She was like WHAT??!! FRIED ICE CREAM???!!! Yup that's right FRIED ICE CREAM. I told her come follow me and I'll show you.. On the way to find the fried ice cream stall, these are a few stall that we came across..


Bling bling Heaven. (Anna will be screaming when she sees this) ;p I will buy one for your birthday Na..



Want to have a tattoo but don't want to feel pain?? Here you can. Like the sign says, it last 7-21days. I've gotten one before and it does look like real tattoo. Many were fooled by my temporary tattoo.. heheheh..



One of the best chill out bar at Jonker Walk. Always full of people and all night live music.


We finally arrived at the fried ice cream stall..



See they really deep fry.. Now you believe??? heheheh cool eh..



Rainbow ice cream inside. Outer part hot but ice cream still cold and not melted.

We continued walking along Jonker Walk to see more stalls while enjoying our cool desserts. Here are more interesting things I managed to snap with my camera.


One of the old building. Untouched design. (but repainted with same original color)


I curi ambil gambar of this baby in front of me. Cannot resist. Hehehhe.. SO FAT!!



This Shit Szu puppy is for sale. RM880. Will you buy me???



The end of Jonker Walk.

Lets do a check list of what I had to do at Jonker Walk:

1. Feed Annabel with cool new food-------- check!
2. Bring Annabel to walk along Jonker Walk------- check!
3. Buy myself a mah jong set (influenced by Angel)---------- check!

My work for day one is done. Annabel is happy and I am happy that she enjoyed herself. There's more pics to come for day two of Annabel's Malacca Trip. Stay tuned... ;)

Double 22???


Hello one and all... I would like to wish myself a Happy 22nd Birthday!! Hehehhe.. Double two's already.. Darn I feel old... Huhuhu... First of all I would like to sincerely thank all my friends who have wished me happy birthday.. So sweet of you guys to remember my birthday.. Loving u all to bits..

Some of my buddies must be wondering what have I done on my birthday.. Well, I did nothing much except go to Sibaraku Japanese Restaurant Buffet and stuffed ourself (me, my bf and his fren) til we can't walk.. Hahaha.. Was kinda hilarious.. We had to pay RM22 each (inclusive of tax) and all guest have 2 hours to eat. 2 hours seems too short right. Imagine do they actually chase people out when they exceed 2 hours already??? Haven't seen that happen yet...

First of all we were totally new there so we didn't know what to do. We were given a sit at the tempayaki table and an order sheet to place our order. So we ordered a total of 6 kinds of dishes but quantity all one. We thought should be a lot for us 3 to finish. Unfortunately for us, the meaning of 1 is very little. Not even enough for 1 person to actually feel satisfied. The funny thing is if you ordered 1 mussel, you actually get only 1 mussel.. hhahah... So feeling unsatisfied, we requested for another order sheet and we order another 5 dishes but this time quantity is 3. While waiting for our tempayaki to cook, we ate tons of sushi, octopus balls, japanese pancake, tempura and miso soup. So can you imagine how totally stuffed we were. Hahahah.. Sorry there isn't any photos of the place and food coz I was so hungry I didn't think of snapping any pics. Hehehe... Newayz i guess thats all... Will update more soon.. Cheerio...
