A Night with the Backstreet Boys!

Wooohhh... What a tiring night at the Backstreet Boys' concert! I wanted to get up earlier this morning to go to the gym but damn I was too tired, I have sore back and legs after standing and jumping the whole night! It was really an awesome show man!
I got some of the videos here, they might not be so clear, and every time I zoomed, the sound just disappear! Anywayz, here they are...
First of all... More than that


My favourite BSB's song of all, All I Have to Give


A very short one from Show Me The Meaning of Being Lonely


Quit Playing Games with My Heart, the song that I love the MV more than the song! Hehehe...


And a short clip of the guys dancing! Woo~Hoo~!


And please excuse me for the VERY loud singing and screaming at the back! Yea... It was me, don't ask me who's that crazy woman...

Backstreet's Back, Alright!!!

I almost lost my voice after all the singing and screaming! I mean, maybe by tomorrow I really will have no voice at all to talk!
I thought Backstreet Boys' concert is on a weekend until last night when I chatted with Pat did I found out it was today, which was actually my off day! So I ended up buying the ticket today and went to the concert straight away with Ducum and her friends! And that was only my second concert after David Tao's way back in 2003! Damn, that was long long long time ago! And it was my first time attending an American band concert too!
So... I was a bit worry that the number of people at the concert would be little. I mean, it's Wednesday and Backstreet Boys is like a Pop band ages ago! I even know that there would be people who would laugh at me saying it's so cheesy to love a Pop band. True, nowadays it seems everybody is into rock bands such as Linkin Park or My Chemical Romance. But I don't care. I can proudly tell ya, I LOVE BSB!!! I'm a HUGE fan of the guys since their first album back in somewhere 1995 or 1996 when I was still in primary school!
Anywayz, it turned out the crowd was quite big! And surprisingly I saw many of BSB's male fans!
Shirlexia at BSB's Malaysia Concert 2008. No... I mean, that's me at BSB's concert! Arrrrhhhh!!!This picture is only showing about 1/4 of the crowd.
Here come the guys!!! (scream! scream! scream!)
And almost everybody was so high! It was the first time the BSB is back after the Tsunami concert. That was what they said. I thought it was more than 10 years ago when they came for their first album promotion. I think the reason the concert was so great was the fact that we all know almost all the songs except for some which are quite new to us. The atmosphere was so high when everybody just sang along with the guys! At times I can't even hear the guys singing, it was all our voices!They look so handsome in the suits! But damn it must be HOT!
Now that's the younger colour to make them really Backstreet 'Boys'!
We have some really famous love songs such as As Long As You Love Me, Quit Playing Games With My Heat, All I Have to Give, I'll Never Break Your Heart, etc. And then some dance songs such as Everybody, Larger Than Live, The Call, etc. They of course made changes in the arrangement of the songs and it made it hard for us to guess what was the next song until they started singing. But that was really nice because you can't really stick to the original ones cos they are probably out-of-date now, seriously they were just awesome! Like some of the songs they made it sounds like rock songs that we just jumped up and down like we were at a Rock concert! And though it was a bit weird to see these guys, now some already 30 something dancing, I still take it! I mean, it was really really great to get to see them live in Malaysia! The four also did their solos. Howie sang some kinda Spanish song and although I always think he's the weakest in terms of vocal, it was the first time I see him shaking his body like that! A.J. was next, a Rock song from him, and he was the stand-out of all in terms of performance! Nick also sang a half-Rock but it was just okay... And then it was the funny Brian, singing his famous Welcome Home... Only if Kevin was there it would be perfect! Kevin was my favourite Backstreet 'Boy'!Possibly the best picture I took the entire night! The very funny and cute Brian! I love him!!!
My one time favourte... Oh come on, everybody's one time favourte... Nick Carter, with his really obvious pimples!We almost lost A.J to drugs, thank god he is still with us cos he's awesome!!!
Cute Howie, still as cute as always!
The concert lasted 2 hours and I certainly didn't feel like leaving. It wasn't enough! 15 years of BSB and they have still some other hit songs that they didn't sing! But overall what a great and awesome show! Less talking and more singing. Really enjoyed it, proved it with my sweat, my dirty feet, and my voice! BACKSTREET BOYS, GREAT SHOW! LOVE YOU GUYS!
P/S: Thanks to the sponsorship of Shirlexia, it was also Ducum's first concert of her life. All she could say after the concert was, "Syok!"
I have also some videos that I'm trying real hard to upload them in Youtube and I'll put them all on here later to share with you guys!

Malaysia Ironman 2008 Langkawi

It covers 3.8km of swim, 180km of cycling and finally a 42.2km run under the hot 43 degrees weather. You are given 17 hours (yes and that means almost an entire day)to complete the race. Definitely one of the world's toughest race and I decided to take part...
As a member of the media.

Live from Dataran Lang, Malaysia Ironman! Arrrrhhhhh!!!
I shall say I wasn't that excited about covering the competition. I mean, in Malaysia who cares about the Ironman race? But now that I've been there, I'm glad that I've went and hope to come back for it one day. Why? You ask?

First of all, I was VERY IMPRESSED by the triathletes. Imagine yourself out almost the whole day just swimming, cycling and running for 17 hours! Can you do that? I think I need maybe 10 years of serious training to get myself fit enough to do that, really! The thing is, there are some elderly contestants with the age group up to...! And there were also three disabled triathletes who actually completed the whole race, some even recorded better time compared to the 'normal' contestants! Feel like giving them a huge applaud man! Well done!

Anywayz, you can't help but to say that the champions are just 'scary'! Faris Al-Sultan from Germany(yes he is REALLY from Germany okay, how many times I need to explain? He is of Iraqi-German parentage) won the men's category with a time of 8 hours plus (Lazy to find out and this is not a story I write for the paper anywayz) while Belinda Granger from Australia took the title in the women's category in 9 hour plus time!

First to arrive, Faris Al-Sultan, a former world champion.
First woman to arrive, Belinda Granger, look, she was actually 'flying'!
Cute or not cute isn't a question, but there is no way I'm gonna miss a chance to take picture with a world champion!
Second reason for me to love the event was there were LOTSA NIHON JIN!!! After leaving my Japanese language all back in Perth, it was a great opportunity for me to talk to them with my broken Japanese. Okay, I know part of it was to show-off (Kakakaka...), but I can't really show-off much because my Japanese is really 'limited'. Anywayz, most of them whom I talked to were the seniors, who seriously don't look like their age! We exchanged e-mail address and watch out for my next Project S guest from Japan! YeeHahhh~!!!

Manabu san, the first Japanese I talked to. Guess how old is he? He's 63! PLEASE IGNORE MY DOUBLE CHIN!!!
Ishimasa san, the one who wanted to take picture with me just because I'm a reporter!
Another veteran, Yoshimori san.
Taro san, a sport commentator and triathlete in Japan!
Well it was also NOT TOO BAD getting to meet the other reporters whom were really helpful and brought me to some interesting places in Langkawi! And not to forget the drinking night a night before we left Langkawi, although I didn't stay for long!
Shirlexia at the Langkawi beach... Too bad no bikini... 'Aunty visit' lar!
CAUTION! The media gang from left: Logan (The Star), Shirlexia (you know where), Liza (Karangkraf) and Shahril (Kosmo).
Love the shopping spree too! Had to buy whiskey and cigarettes for my colleagues which limited some other stuffs that I can buy. But still, bought lots of chocolates which I can't really eat right now because of a something... And damn they are cheap!!!Shopping... Shopping... Shopping...

The down side was, the food was crap. The official caterer that catered all the food was bad. Almost the same thing everyday and they were just crap. Their kitchenware were always dirty as well, I wonder why... I had a few meals outside too but none of them were fantastic. Arrrhhh... Maybe I should have take a 15 min flight to Penang just to eat!

I also visited JE's (love calling her that name since the JE virus started) cafe and had a VERY VERY SHORT re-union with her. I really can't understand how she can survive Langkawi...

JE and Me at her cafe, 6 soul. Remember to drop by if you go to Langkawi! The cafe is just few steps away from the airport!
So there went my second outstation assignment with my current job. Thank god I survived! Touch wood, this time I came back without having to stay in the hospital like my first trip!

And the one thing I really want to do after returning from Langkawi is... Go on a BLOODY SERIOUS DIET! Though the food there was crappy, but since they were free, and came every few hours, I ate quite a lot of them actually. So time to hit back to the gym!

长江７号 CJ7

CJ7 or Jumper?

在去Langkawi之前我在戏院买票前的确犹豫过一下下，可是因为长江７号比较早上，可能会较早下画，所以还是选择了它。我佩服周星驰，可我并不是他的粉丝。之前的少林足球和功夫我都很喜欢，可是这次却有点失望.......

也许是他想他做的喜剧变得有深度点，所以想说有点教育的成份。的确，看到徐娇因为爸爸去世而痛哭，我也跟着哭了。可是之后就感觉马马虎虎的结束了。有好几个部份还保持了星爷搞笑的本领，尤其是你也一定笑翻的那一幕......徐娇被命令不准说话，可是又想说她看到的不明物体的那个！是不是？真的很好笑啦！而且这小朋友演技不错，很可爱！而７仔也令我这个不爱科幻的人改观了，觉得它还真的蛮可爱的！可是...... That's all!

我觉得基本上整部电影没有＂点＂，都不懂到底它想说什么。最糟的是结局整个烂死了！完全都没有一个点、没有一个结局！

唉，早知道就听我家室友的话，看她下载的好了！

P/S: The movie may not be the big winner at the Oscar held on Sunday night (US time) but Congratulations to The Bourne Ultimatium for winning three awards! It took the Best Film Editing, Sound Mixing and Sound Editing and I definitely think they deserve it! I love the movie, and I remember well the editing was brilliant!

WTF?

I'm sorry I have to write this crap here but I'm damn pissed off that I need somewhere to let it out!
Just now, I arrived at the media centre of the Ironman Malaysia at Dataran Lang, took my food for breakfast, and one of the Malay guys who was also from the media (god only knows which press he's from) was getting up from his seat to get more food. I NEVER thought of taking over his seat, but he turned to me while taking his food, and said:"Eh, I belum habis lagi tau!" So I just told him I know, but in my heart I was like, WTF? I mean I know you're not done yet, and even if you want to tell me that you still want your seat, tell me in a proper way lar! By saying "Eh, I belum habis lagi tau!" sounds like you're so stingy and not gentleman at all! Some other people might even let me take the chair and then take another chair for himself, okay? Fuck，Malaysian men are terrible!
The worst thing is, after that, he just kept on eating and took food for the third time! And then he was telling his friends there that he better go to sleep after eating.......
Oh man, rude, not gentleman, eat too much(when he's already quite fat) and lazy... He'll definitely be getting a long face from me the whole day or anytime I see him again!

Shirlexia Tan, reporting live from Langkawi

Hey guys, just a little updates and some crap...
I'm now at Langkawi, covering the 2008 Malaysia Ironman. It was a last minutes call, but I'm feeling great about it since I was already thinking of coming here during the CNY break to visit JE, who now has a cafe here. I met her at the airport yesterday, but I really hope to spend some time at her cafe later.
It's just the second day now, the race is scheduled tomorrow while I'm flying back to KL on Monday.
So far nothing much yet, just that I'm excited meeting some Japanese here and talked to them in my broken Japanese. Hopefully I get to interview one of them for Project S.
Anywayz, here are some pictures to share with...Damn, I can't believe I took this picture, so pro lar!
My god, what a beautiful sunset at Langkawi! What a great photographer! :p
Well, before I came to Langkawi, on the way to KL Central from Sunway, I found this very interesting billboard ad...
Poor guy, look how smart he was dressed-up to take the picture, and look how poetic he was and how much they spent just to put this ad on...
And you know the election fever is here! But you know I'm always not interested with the politics stuffs...
What I concern more is Edison Chen...
Honestly, I know Edison is a smart guy, that's definitely NOT the end of everything for him. Everybody knows he's breaking into the Hollywood's world of entertainment!

Girls, please protect yourself!

I know it is a bit out-dated to publish this picture(I've been waiting for people to forward those pictures to me but damn in the end I had to look for it myself), and I know it's not so nice to publish it, but I'm doing this to send out warning to all girls out there!

The Edison Chen scandal shocked almost everybody and I personally think it's all done for him and those actresses who are involved in it. But I really don't get it. Don't those girls have brains? How come they can just let some guy take such pictures of them? Even a normal person would have the brain to think and protect themselves, what more is these girls are 'public people'? Stupid, definitely stupid!

To all girls out there, even if that's you boyfriend, please DO NOT EVET LET ANYONE TAKE PICTURES OF YOU LIKE THAT!!!

只能用搞笑、直接来形容他--陈文宏

你21岁的时候在干嘛？大多数的你都会在学业上打拼着，或者就是打着散工赚钱…….可是我的Project S的第一个主角还未满21，已经是世界第一的男双羽球好手（曾经是，现为世界第3），虽然没有很漂亮的学历，可是他是世界第一、许多人的偶像，而且赚的比我们多好几倍。 报纸上读的新闻，发言的通常都是他的伙伴古健杰，你或许会误会他是个不爱说话的人。其实，他真的很多话，也很爱耍宝，跟他说话，你完全不会觉得自己在跟一个大人物在说话。这个大人物，就是陈文宏。 约文宏出来真的出奇的容易，他很爽快地就答应了！怎知到了约见的时间call他，他竟然说他忘记了，而且还已经约了他的“好朋友”去看电影！你可以想像我当时真的额头冒了三行汗……幸好他还是以很快的速度赶到了，而且连“好朋友”都来了。

因为之前的几次经验，我问他的第一个问题是自从成名后，走在街上如果被认出来，被要求说要签名或什么的，他会怎样。
“就这样啰，ok啊！”
“不会觉得很烦或什么吗？”我继续问。
“人家支持你的，你当然要对人家好一点啦！”有时候他讲话真的很像电影里那些黑色会大佬的那种语气。
也因为之前的一次爆笑经验，我问他的第二个问题就是，他是不是很怕教练Rexy Mainaky离开的那一天。
“他有在的时候当然要珍惜啦，他要走我也阻止不到的嘛！”
“那你跟她感情一定很好吧？”
“Ok啦，什么都可以讲的那种啰，不过他脾气很不好的，偶尔真的会骂我们的！”
虽然我有点抗拒问太多大家在报纸已经读过了的问题，可是我还是忍不住，八卦的问了他到底他和古健杰是不是不合。
“吵架是一定有的啦，比赛的时候大家都想赢，可是比赛一完就ok了。”
“不过我们也有互相鼓励的啦，如果不是就不会有今天的成绩啦！”
老实说，我一直很好奇这两人到底是怎样相处的。一个是英校生，整个看起来（相处起来也一样）就超酷的；另一个就华校生还不止，还不停的说自己“读书很烂”，而且这个给人的感觉就是很孩子气、傻傻的。
他们俩除了一起练球、比赛之外，很少一起出去玩（文宏说他在队里最好的朋友是云天豪和关明鸿），还好健杰会说福建话和华语，不然他们可能就要用马来文沟通了。
不懂大家有没有同样的感觉，每次看到他们俩打球，总觉得健杰都脸臭臭的，感觉他很爱在文宏旁边碎碎念的，好像在骂他似的，而他也好像就默默地没什么反应。可是文宏并不觉得他这个“令一半”脾气坏哦！而且…….
“他比我大两岁，怎样都是比较有经验，我当然会有点尊敬他啰！”
我问他，为什么每次发言的都是健杰而不是他，而他对于这一点会不会有点不爽？
“不会啊，我不是不要发言啊，是不能！你看，我英文又不好、马来文ok啦，还是给他讲就好啦！而且他说话比较有经过大脑。”
他那么说，就是说自己说话没经大脑啰？哈哈，我想也是…….
不是啦，我觉得他只是很直接，还小啦！可是他的直接真的可以很令人傻眼的。我忘了我当时问他什么问题，他竟然杀出一句“你怎样问问题的？”如果是新入行的记者或许已经哭了吧？幸好我早已做好准备，而且我家老板比他还直接啦！

孝顺的文宏很可爱！
好了，接着我问他他觉得自己是怎样的一个人。
除了我所懂的幽默、直接、多话、还有才发现的没记性外，原来他是个很简单的人，包括对自己的“好朋友”也不会特别浪漫。可是他对某些东西还是要求完美的哦！
“如果说我的车坏了，我就立刻要去修理，不能再等！”
又是一个爱车的男生……
那他爱打扮吗？依我“专业”的眼光来看，他穿衣服的确不会“la-la”，可是超简单的，都是T-shirt加牛仔裤，还有他很爱带在身上的LV包。
名牌哦，而且“好朋友”也有一个，当然是他送的，难怪她说他对女孩子很慷慨啦！那还有什么他会特别慷慨的呢？
我先问他，拿了那么多冠军，他是不是很多钱？
“没有啦，有成绩就有钱啰，有钱就花啰！”
那是不是很爱买名牌？
“我没有常常买名牌的啦，衣服那些是舒服、心情好就买啰！”是的，原来文宏买衣服也要看心情的。
“花最多在改车啰，妈妈要出国旅行就给他去。”
说到妈妈就说到其中一个重点了。不管他有多直接，他那一张脸整个就是还没长大似的，给我的感觉就是在家里也像是个很“爹”的小孩，更何况他是老幺。
“现在很少回家了，回家很“显”的，没事做！”
可是别看他一脸不在乎的样子，他可是很孝顺的哦！话说，文宏回家都会跟妈妈来个抱抱的，听起来就觉得这小子实在太可爱了。

“我的汉语拼音很厉害的！”
访问进行到一半，他已经不行了，眼皮都已经在半吊了，还猛打哈欠…….身边的“好朋友”才说他很爱睡，所以不爱去看电影，看到一半总会睡着的，那天是他们交往以来（没问多久啦）第二次一起去看电影！
一个21岁的男生，不爱看电影，那他平时会做什么呢？
“睡觉。”他说，这个答案很“官方”，因为很多运动员都爱这样回答我。
他们平时练球很辛苦的啦，所以会特别累，所以才会那么爱睡。这个是他的“好朋友”告诉我的。
文宏说他平时也很爱上网看报纸、玩MSN，偶尔才会出去走走。
那上网不都要用英文的吗？
“我用华文的啦，我的汉语拼音很厉害的！”他很自豪的说。
他一直很强调他没读书，还一直说他SPM没有一科是pass的。问他当时念的是理科还是商科…….
“我也不知道，不要问我读书的东西啦，我都跟你讲我不喜欢读书啰！”
不用你说，他也从不想以后退休后会回去念书，他说以后有钱一定买房子当投资的。我相信他其实现在就有这个能力了。

他，就是超级直接！
作为世界第一的组合，他和健杰一直是传媒追着访问的目标，那对于记者群们，他又有什么看法？
“不是很喜欢啰，我们打球一定有赢有输的嘛，输得时候就给他们批评到很厉害，赢得时候怎样哩？”
身为记者的我，想说的是…….我很明白他所说的，的确很有道理。可是身为公众人物、国家运动员，其实多多少少也要明白，也要学会面对这些“压力”。
最后我问他觉得今年北京奥运会觉得自己又没有机会，他说当然有啊，没有就不会在打球啦！
是的，奥运是每个运动员的梦想，可是我说他才21，如果这次没什么成绩也还有很多机会吧？他立刻反驳！
“哪里有这样的？有钱拿就拿啦！”是不是？我都说他超直接的啦！
那他和健杰会一起拍档到什么时候？
“如果没有意外的话，应该会很久。”他想都没想就这样回答了，看得出来他和健杰一点都没有不合、也看得出来他非常珍惜他这个和他经历过许多高潮和低潮的好伙伴！
最好笑的就是访问完毕，他站起来正要离开时，他突然笑着跟我说：“下次要访问你时打给你，以后不打球要当记者。”
哈哈，好啊文宏，我等你！

后记：这次的访问，文宏给我的感觉始终没变，就是那个很好玩、很搞笑的小子。还有他那直接的个性，心脏再弱一点可能承受不来！所以我说这次很庆幸他带了他的“好朋友”一起来，他太直接时她都会喊停、他开始睏了、在打哈欠、或不懂怎么回答时我都会往她那边看，她总能给我一个很好的答案。直接也不错啊，至少不会像一些人常常很官腔的，blah blah blah，听了都闷死！老实说，他真的没什么架子，比起古健杰，他真的简单多，也友善得多了。小子，加油啰！奥运会别让我们失望！

号外: 你一定很好奇，我上面所说的“之前的经验”是什么吧？其实我跟文宏之前见过一次面，也曾经在电话上聊过一下子。第一次是去年过年前吧，我还在RTM工作，被派到茨厂街捉人说新年祝福，就意外的遇到他和明鸿。我当时当然要他说个新年祝福啦，他其实很犹豫，然后一直说自己马来文不好，还要我一句一句的教他怎么说！当时的情况还蛮搞笑的耶，他真的NG了好几次我才甘愿！之后我还一直向我的制作人炫耀我找到“明星”来说祝贺语呢！

然后就是有次我已经离开RTM了，他们刚勇夺全英赛冠军回来，我以前的制作人通过我的帮助找到健杰上节目接受访问，而文宏却在吉打过着他的“honeymoon”，所以他们决定在节目中途打电话给他，来个连线访问。当时因为我在，而且我的旧同事（马来人）打给他时他似乎不懂到底发生了什么事，所以我直接把电话接过来，用华语跟他解释。而访问期间主持人突然问他，如果有一天Rexy不再是他的教练时他会怎样？他反应很大的说：“Har? Dia sudah tak mau jadi coach ke? Bila dia cakap ini?”当时我们整个录影棚的人都笑翻了，包括我也在里面笑到直在原地跳！访问完毕，我没有直接盖上电话，他立刻问我：“怎样？怎样？刚才可以吧？我的马来文是不是进步很多哩？”我…….一时真的给不了他什么反应，只觉得他这个小子还蛮好玩的嘛！

Project S单纯是出自自己的兴趣而"成立"的，希望可以以非常不专业的写稿方式来写我的文章。主要是想搞点新意啦，而我访问的人也不一定是名人，只要是有趣的我都会写。而如果访问时是以中文交谈的我就写中文，以英文交谈就写英文，除非有special request啦！其实我去年就已经想要在我的blog搞这个"东西"了，连这个跟文宏 做的访问也是在去年12月做的，只是基于自己懒惰，才那么慢才把它"煲"出来！所以应该跟文宏和其他接受过我的访问的人说声不好意思啦！如果反应好的话，我会陆陆续续的把其他的访问都Po上来的！那我也希望大家 enjoy啦，如果有什么得罪的地方先说声对不起，读过了的你们也欢迎多多留言哦！

20几岁，决定女人的一生

我知道你第一个反应一定是大笑，就像我妹妹和她的朋友看到我买这本书回来时那样。
可是老实说，通常我读过以后觉得没有很好看的书我都不会在blog里跟大家分享的啰！这本由韩国作者南仁淑写的书真的很不错，很多很真的故事、很多很现实的故事，令我边读边点头，仿佛她所形容的根本就是我嘛！她以一个已超过30的经验来告诉你，20岁时她错过了的东西，真的差不多每一个都那么的重要！虽然我常常都是“讲就天下无敌，做就有心无力”（连算命师也看出来我这个缺点）,所以我不能确定我是不是能跟着她说的去做，可是我能肯定的说，我从她的文字里学到了很多，突然领悟了很多自己好像从不放在眼里的一些事情。真的，我很少爱上一本像这样的“励志”书本的，可是这本真的令我整个佩服得很。24岁了，我还有6年的时间去改进，我现在突然恍然大悟，知道到底我应该怎么做，来保证30以后的我是可以过得轻松的了！
其实这本书价钱比一般中文书贵，如果你想看的话，而我又信任你的话，我不介意借你一看的哦！

回归吉隆坡

老土也要说一句，快乐的时光总是过得特别快，两个星期的假期就这样飘过了。
今天，我带着大姑给的一大包食物、重重的旅行袋、还有几粒青春痘回到了吉隆坡。
哇塞，休息了那么久，终于要开工了，真是十万个不愿意啊！

这一次回乡，感觉真的很棒、很开心。
或许因为感觉到家里的温暖吧？
跟爸、妈没有很亲密，却奇妙的感觉到大家的感情比以前好多了。
跟妹妹也相亲相爱的，觉得她越来越可爱了！
还有跟婆婆、大姑、叔叔、婶婶、堂妹现在变得无说不谈，一见面就“鸡啄唔短”。
哇，那种感觉好爽哦！

当然，回家的饮食习惯就真的变“习惯”了。
还好我自认比以前懂得控制多了，一滴酒也没碰过、那些糖份高的饮料和饼干都少吃了。
唯一的“破坏”是吃了很多米饭、很多油腻的东西，搞到我青春痘长满脸！
明早一定要去健身房，立即恢复我的减肥大战！

回来之前，我去了找算命师算命，他是太平很出名的算命师哦！
我只能说，他还蛮风趣的，而且很多还蛮准的，不过他帮我算出来的大致上都不是很好啰！
当然，他叫我避免的我会尽量做到，但我不会因为他说我哪里会不好而不开心。
虽然我相信命运，但我更相信只要积极、努力，人类一定能改变命运的。
所以我还是会努力的去尝试，让自己的生命更有趣、更精彩！
是不是觉得我好像看开了很多？
原因请锁定我下一个post！大日子过后最期待的“菜尾”or广东话称为“菜脚”。
回来之前帮忙妈妈做的烧卖，其实真的很容易做，而且很好吃！
回来之前的那个晚餐有很美味的蒸虾，单看就知道很棒了啦！人家是星球大战，我的是“痘痘大战”！

Valentine's Day @ Ayer Tawar

My two-week-long CNY break is coming to an end soon. So for the sake of not wasting my holiday, I got my dad to bring the whole family to Ayer Tawar. Now, for your information, I have relatives there at Ayer Tawar. My late grandfather’s late sister’s family are there. So I thought it’s so near Taiping, why not we just have a day trip to Ayer Tawar to visit them?
It took us about 1 and a half hour to reach there and we first visited our uncle or we call 'go tiao gong' in Hokkien(my late grandfather’s late sister’s husband). That was the first time I met him after probably 8-10 years time. So it was really nice to see him again although he doesn’t recognize me anymore. He is 90 this year, so give him a break. He can still ride on a motorbike to the market everyday! Anywayz, it was just a short visit at the old house, which you may find it really interesting.

The special decoration at my go tiao gong's house!

Also, the very special toilet...Many of you who spent the whole life in KL may not have a chance to see these photos in some kampung hosues.Ahhh... I love these olden days radio and fan!They are soooo cute!Chit-chatting session going on...My 90 year-old go tiao gong, striking a pose with a can of 100 Plus... A pic with go tiao gong before leaving... Eh, Mi, how come you include your figer in the photo ar?
And then… Ta da… The lunch that I was soooo looking forward to! The Hock Chew lunch that is a must! Though I can’t really remember much of the taste of the food the last time I had them, the dishes are still very special. Let me introduce them to you… The Hock Chew-Style Loh Mee.The Hock Chew-style Sweet & Sour Fish Fillet.The Hock Chew-Style Sweet & Sour Bak Kut! I really like this!The Hock Chew-style HOT Tofu Soup! Yummy!The one that I've missed for so many years! The very yummy Sweet & Sour Fish Maw & Sea Cucumber Soup! Whoa!

Look yummy? Haha, I can’t help ya, they are all in my stomach now! Hehehe…
Of course, another must in Ayer Tawar is surely the ‘Kong Piang’. It’s a kinda biscuit a.k.a bread that is made in a hot pot like how people make naan at the mamak restaurant. They have both empty ones and also with pork. I always love them! It’s yummy yummy…

Whenever you see this by the road side of Ayer Tawar, you know you gotta stop!
And… The day trip was done on a Valentine’s Day! There went my 2008 Valentine’s Day!
To all of you, Happy Valentine’s Day!!!
