Classic Moments

Scene: Esther's Car
Date: 28th of July
Time: 5.30pm.
Subject: Esther

ShawnKid: I can't pronounced English quite properly, for example, I got problem speaking opportunity once.
Esther: Don't worry, it's no big deal. I got that kind of problem once in a while. This is what happened to Chinese educated children like us.
Esther: (Point to a house)那间裤子看起来很空。。。(The pants look so empty.)
*We both started to laugh so hard*
Esther: 屋子!!!(House)
ShawnKid: Apparently you have the same problem with pronouncing Mandarin too.

P/S:
裤子(ku zi) - pants
屋子(wu zi) - house
Pronunciation are similar but has a distinct difference.

HellBoy 2 : The Golden Army

Watched the movie with Stephanie at Pyramid.

The queue was very scary but managed to get the tickets in the end, although we had to sit at the couple seat.

The movie is awesome. But it just feel like it is missing something and I don't know what. Overall, I'll give the movie a 8/10 rating. You won't regret watching and you will speak to others about the funny dialogs after the movie.

Go catch a movie. Life's short, do more.

Lol.

Will watch Dark Knight on Wednesday.

Fund Raising

This is the 1st fund raising activity I did.

And it happened for my scout's annual dinner.

We sell hot dogs on a stick!

It was Esther's idea, she sold it for her apprentice project and so, we took her marvelous idea and make it work, again.

But, at the end of the day, we did everything. We, refer to Esther and I only. At the very fine night before the fund raising, when we were buying the ingredients at Mydin, we can't help but question ourselves: "Why are we doing this?"

We are assistance scouters, we are suppose to assist, not take over the scout's job. The juniors apparently got so BUSY in their school life, and the parents are too RELUCTANT to let their children out to participate in any activity or merely just to buy some stuff.

What's the point? Why are we still doing everything?

We had to wake up 4.30am and fry the spicy, smoked and cheese sausages at Esther's house, put it on the stick and provide container, ice box, box drinks and sauces.

What they did is call: "Hello, where are you now? It's getting late."

Despite of all the hard work, it paid off obviously.

Not much, but enough to satisfy myself.

Food Test

I went to Steven's Corner today. The whole purpose that I am there it is because I had to do a food test for my upcoming Scout's Campfire Dinner. I didn't expect it to be a mamak restaurant until I saw the real product smash right at my face.


This is SRI Steven's Corner.

I asked for the person in charge for catering, and they sure looked blur. So I shall be an usual customer that is here to eat a very amazingly expensive nasi campur.

This nasi campur is RM13.


Let me recall what did I take for the nasi campur, I got mutton, curry chicken, egg, red fish slice, Thai style sotong and nasi briyani.

Overall I give this restaurant 5/10. The food is okay. But the price is a little bit too much. The whole restaurant just feel like I am barely able to breath. I will not resist to go back there but I wouldn't want to.

=(

P/S: I went to IKEA with Esther the previous Sunday and the Princess Cake there is awesome!



Leftover of the cake, left a mouthful only.


It's like heaven, RM5.90.

Ran out of names?

I am an online gamer.

I play online games, but what bothers me nowadays are the fact that I see the gamers seem to run out of some decent names for their characters.

Let me show you some example of bad names, and when I say bad it is really bad.

5th class bad name:
Referring to numbers. Numbers can be ranging from telephone number to does not make sense numbers. For example: 80248899, 321321321, 987654321, 123456 and the best of all, onetwothree.

4th class bad name:
Similar to the above, but now it is in alphabets. They simply does not make out any words, they make out patterns. For example: asdasdasd, sawdsawd, poipoi, uiui, wertwert and the best of all, qwerty.

3rd class bad name:
Number + Alphabets which is totally random and became name, and of course, they don't have to mean anything. For instance: lilo1df2g1de3, 98ery3t9hj, asd123, wasd1234 and the best of all, 54dfsg1er51ger12465e4f65se4f95s1.

2nd class bad name:
Names which has the combination of actions, adjectives and nouns or any form of structure that mean something but illogical to be a name. For instance: YouCMeYouDie, ProNoob, IHITUMATI and the best of all, DunKillMePlz

1st class bad name:
A translation of language into some other unfamiliar language and made as name. The best of all, it hit me so hard I had to stop any form of action and laughed for a good minute and only continue. For example: WoShiBoiBoi, PapaJahat, babybaobao, Siaoehh, Walao, lupamandi and the best of all, kemaluan.

I play 1st character shooting games. When you see at the side that shows currently who killed who, it became so entertaining when you read it out loud. Burung Besar killed Punani. OMG killed Professional. See what I mean?

I mean, I'm not saying that it is not smart to have such name, but come on, can't you come out with something better?

Once I thought putting your name as characters name is bad, guess now I think it doesn't sound as bad. Even, JackJack sound so much wiser now.

Lol.

In appreciation of good names,
ShawnKid.

Semester Break

My 1st semester break started right after my last paper, Principle of MICE and Events was handed up to the invigilator.

I got a whole one month and a week of holiday and trust me, I have no idea what to do. Yes, I am bored.

Let's just assume I had a celebration with Esther yesterday, though we were there because she had to pick up something from the SJMC hospital, thus we had lunch at SS12.

The place's name did not ring a bell on my head. It's just some Italian Cuisine Restaurant.

I ordered Fish and Chip while Esther ordered this:


Tenderloin something with garlic sauce.

I shall give a rating of 6/10 for the restaurant. My fish & chip was not really good, the batter was too much causing it to cover the taste of the fish. The tenderloin is not really good as well, the beef is too hard. I like the chips though. Not forgetting the awesome mushroom soup.

The ambiance in the restaurant is good, a gives a very cozy feeling to the customers. Price wise is okay, not too expensive but not to cheap either, average price range around RM 18 per set.

Overall, I say, it would not hurt to come back, but I will not anticipate to come back either.

Tomorrow I shall go hunt for different food to occupy my time.

Steamboat

I was suppose to study... Until I ended up with Esther all the way at SS15 eating steamboat.

Well, I wouldn't mind to escape the fact that I have to study but I somehow feel guilty after that.

Of course, I looking forward what's coming after the finals instead of what is it I am going to face on the Monday.

Esther was late to pick me up, and her mum called me.

LOL.

The whole purpose of us eating steamboat just now is all because of the QQ Tau Fu. I never knew that particular taufu had its own unique name. Oh, in case you are wondering what in the world is that taufu, it is a taufu which is soft in the inside and got skin and it is salty.

Talking about Esther's amazing spending power and how the vege can taste so good in a chicken stock soup, not forgetting how well the QQ Tau Fu can suck the soup.

Esther was trying to show her sarcasms because I said something.

She said: "Do you know how well this taufu suck the soup?"

Obviously, she is threatening me, with a piece of taufu. Then the taufu accidentally slipped off the chopstick and dropped into her bowl, the soup all over her arm and face.

"I'm aware of that." I said and I can't stop laughing then.

The night was filled with taufu and the same old craps.

Finals

Guess what? I have my finals next Monday, which is like 3 days from now.

Having 5 subjects to study on, I can say I'm such a lazy bastard.

P/S: Entrepreneurship is really not my cup of tea.
