couldn't find a travel mate.. sigh!

The temples of Bodobudur is a ninth century Mahayana Buddhist monument in Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borobudur

The famous Angkor Wat, a World Heritage Site, is a temple at Angkor, Cambodia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angkor_Wat

Really in the mood to travel now.. it's been quite sometime I didn't travel due to tight financial issue, but it is better now.. so I can plan for my travel again.. YAHOO!! been asking frens what are they travel plans for this year.. most of the answer are >> 'Hong Kong', 'Taipei' and 'Bangkok'.. although I never been to those places beside Bangkok, but I am not really interested to go if I can choose.. it seems like shopping and eating trip ha.. a bit boring lor..

Actually I wanna go Istanbul so badly, but it is crazy expensive.. I have checked the cheapest return airfare that I could found is RM3300, juz the airfare.. OMG!!... if I go for a week then for my whole trip at least I have to spend RM6k.. it is over my budget, so by no choice for time being I have to put it aside till.... I also don't know.. sighhhhh......

Let's plan for something cheaper.. when talking about cheaper sure my mind will think of AirAsia.. my first choice is Angkor Wat (Siem Reap), another place that I wanna go desperately, been asking my frens but they are not interested bcuz they have planned to go HK or Taipei or BKK.. one of my fren is interested but he only can make it in September.. OMG!! 6 more months to go.. it is too far.. I can't wait.. I juz wish I can go next month or in May.. my second choice is Borobudur temples (Yogyakarta), another historical place that worth to visit.. again.. I got same feedback from frens, so sad... arghhhhhh....

Well, for sure everybody have their own places that they wanna visit.. some may like shopping and foods, some like beautiful scenery, some like historical places, some like big city and some like beaches.. I am not so sure whether I can get a travel mate to Angkor Wat or Borobudur in next month, but really hope that I can get out from here and go travel in near future.. can't hardly wait for that... haha!!

老师嫁老大 - Ah Long Ptd Ltd

'Really unexpected.. it is much much more funny then what we are expected..!! salute to the performance of sissy Mark Lee..!!'

This is the hottest and most talk able movie lately by everyone around me.. Initially I have no intention to watch it at all but after heard all the good and funny feedback from those who have watched it.. we decided to go for the show and see how funny this movie is.. guess what?? the show is really hot and we can't even get the tickets on the day we wanna watch, so by no choice we have to get the tickets few days in advance..

This show is directed by the Singapore famous director/actor - Jack Neo, and it is talking about the Ah Long (black market money lenders) activities in KL.. Singapore famous comedian - Mark Lee who is a sissy dance instructor and by accidentally he marriages the head of Ah Long - Fann Wong, and he only knows that after they marriages.. Fann is planning to change the strategy of the Ah Long business into more humanity and legally and Mark is helping her to achieve that, and there are lot of funny things happen in the process of changing..

Mark Lee is a brilliant comedian, and he is the star who shine so bright in the movie, the way he talks in the movie was really sissy and damn funny.. his dressing is another highlight here.. haha!! audiences in the cinema laugh like nobody business when he talks.. beside him, other actors in the movie were great too!! If you are looking for something funny and wanna laugh for the whole movie, then you must go for this one.. Mark Lee will make you laugh till.. wakakaka..!!!

The Spiderwick Chronicles

I am always interested into this type of movie, been thinking of watch it since I have watched the trailer.. another reason is because of the young actor - Freddie Highmore, I have noticed him when I watched 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' where he is Charlie Bucket in the movie and his role really caught my attention.. but what make me really notice him is another movie ' Finding Neverland' where he is Kate Winslet's son and with Johnny Depp (again..), his performance in the movie was brilliant and he has nominated and won a few awards for that role.. to me he is a brilliant small actor, definitely will go for all his upcoming movies..

Back to this movie.. basically it is talking about the a family moved into Arthur Spiderwick's house where they is a secret book been kept inside a chest, the boy Jerad who has found the book and read it although there is a warning notice.. Jerad also found the brownie - Thimbletack in the house who told him the story of the book and also what is the impact after reading the book.. there are goblins surrounding the house wanna steal the book and they are finding the way to break the protect circle to get into the house.. well basically the story continue with how Jerad and his family fight against the goblins to protect the book..

Overall I like the movie, the story is simple and easy to follow and those graphic and animation are not 'over'.. I like the Arthur Spiderwick's pet - griffin, which is really cool and fly like a big bird in the sky.. I have to mention about Freedie again, his performance is ok here but not as impressive as he did the 'Finding Neverland' due to the role given here..

RUN... keep on RUNNING..

I never like running on the treadmill.. I found it is very boring.. When talking about running on treadmill, my very first reaction will be.. 'Yer.. so boring one..!!' and I am too lazy to do that too..

Recently I have joined a new gym and equipments there are really cool.. finally I decided to run on treadmill again.. firstly is bcuz the equipment and secondly I know that running is a best way to burn calories.. I need that bcuz I like to eat and always found that it is too hard for me to control my diet.. hey!! life is short.. this cannot eat! that cannot eat! no fun lor!! haha.. but of coz I will always try to remind myself don't eat too much, not only to maintain a proper shape but most importantly is for my health..

So far, I am quite happy with my running process.. manage to increase the time of my running slowly.. and try to run at least 3 times a week for 30 mins every section.. I am monitoring the total of calories burned every section, and again so far the result is quite satisfying..

You may feel very hard or leg pain when u start running.. but I am sure u can overcome it after the first 10mins.. been asking some frens who are running and all of them had the same feeling.. so u are not the only one feel pain, ok!! start slowly and try to relax and enjoy your running process, put on your mp3 and play some great music..

So, let's run.. and burn more calories and say bye bye to your extra fat..!!

10,000 BC

Before we go for the show, here are some funny questions pop up in our mind.. one of my fren asked in 10,000 BC what language they gonna speak? will the movie in English? or with some funny language that we couldn't understand then have to read the subtitle..?? another said maybe it is juz like a documentary where there is a guy telling story and those characters in the movie don't talk at all.. haha!! what's wrong with them?? thinking so much before the movie.. juz get the ticket and enjoy the show la..!!!

Overall, the show is ok only to me.. not as excited as some said.. i like those mammoths in the movie, they are quite real and they are really huge compared to the elephant.. really amazing!! but the most amazing thing in the movie is still the final part where they found the place where the Egyptians are building the pyramids.. OMG!! it is a brilliant scene.. those labours and mammoths (again.. haha!!) are amazing..!! but not so sure whether is it the real way how Egyptians built the pyramids or there are built by aliens.. haha!!

The main actor in the movie is good looking (many of those who watched the show said that..) he really have the warrior style.. i like his hair, really looks like 'Bob Marley' style.. but a bit disappointed with the main actress, basically she got no chance to talk much and juz walking here and there, but she got a lovely name - Evolet..

Anyway, it is an entertaining movie to me.. and it worth to watch it bcuz we can see lot of amazing scenes on 10,000 BC, especially the Pyramids and of coz my favorite mammoths.. haha!!

MV : Bob Sinclair - World Hold On



The kid in the MV of the song is quite similar with the kid in the movie 'Martian Child' which i watched recently.. both are really interested into space and planets.. the kid in the song dream about flying into space with his dog by his own spaceship.. and the kid in the movie though he is from Mar and is waiting to return to Mar one day.. and both kids also having a good fren 'DOG'..

The MV is quite cool but definitely it is a great song.. whenever i heard the song my body will start to move and try to sing along as well.. a great song to share and hope you guys will like it too..

Edifier iF330 speaker (for iPod)

I have been thinking of getting myself a portable speaker for my ipod sometime ago, but juz didn't really make up my mind to survey for any brand.. lately the mood is coming back again, so this time I have done research on the web and asking opinion from one of my fren who are working with computer portable products.. he suggested a brand 'Altec Lansing', it seems like a good product but the price is quite expensive (my budget is something around RM300+), there is a model from 'Altec Lansing' where the price is around my budget but I juz don't like the design..

I went to survey the brand and price in Low Yat, in fact there is no much choices.. it seems like not a really popular product.. finally I found this one - 'Edifier iF330 speaker'.. the design of the speaker is quite nice and I like it in white color, it might be a bit large for a portable speaker but I don't really care for the size bcuz I will put it at home and the chances of bringing it to travel is quite rare.. I tried the sound quality and it turns up quite nice and reasonable for the price I paid.. there is a docking drawer where to insert the ipod and while playing the songs at the same time the ipod is being charged.. So without thinking too much, I bought it..

I have played the speaker on the weekend and so far I have no complain for the sounds with different type of music, rock! pop! jazz! alternative..!! If you think of getting a portable speaker for your ipod, you may consider this one, worth for the money you paid..

Martian Child

If one day there is a child told you that he believes he is from Mars, so what will you do? what are you going to say? Interesting ha..!!
but definitely I will think this child must be reading too much comics or watching too much space cartoons.. haha!!

I was never notice this movie bcuz it has been a while I didn't go for movie.. So we planned to go for a show on friday night, initially we planned to go for '10,000BC' but my fren couldn't booked the tickets and he told me that he has watched the trailer of that show and it was something like National Geography program.. haha! so he suggested for 'Martian Child'..

Here is the plot of the movie >> David Gordon has just lost his wife Mary and is looking to adopt a young boy named Dennis who believes he is from Mars. After adopting the boy, he manages to bring Dennis out of the amazon box in which he stays to hide from the sun. He teaches the boy how to be an "earthling" and earns Dennis' love in the process with the help of his sister.

Overall I like this movie and it is quite touching.. I like the way David trying very hard to teach the boy to live in the humans way by not forcing him, his passion and effort of doing it is really touching.. and the boy is really lucky to have an adopted dad.. the boy who believes he is from Mars and he can fly away anytime, so he wears a belt (where he hangs a lot of batteries on it and make himself heavier then he can't fly away.. haha!!) he is so cute and I like he did the space dance, so damn funny!!

I recommended this movie to those who wanna watch something more to our real life.. one thing I have learned from the movie, we will 'never ever ever ever ever ever ever................ give up!!' when we are new to the environment and trying ourselves to be part of the new society..

My favorite ROBOT..

This is the ROBOT that will cost me RM1500.. still under consideration stage.. should I?? so confusing.. aiks...


This is TAKE ME HIGHER!!! collections.. enchanting rockets, flying saucers and glittering space robots, but my favorite still the ROBOT!!

Is it cute?? YES!! IT IS VERY CUTE..!! I have noticed this robot for a while in Thomas Sabo jewellery outlet in pavilion.. I know definitely it is not cheap based on the unique design of the robot and the location of the shop.. so i just don't bother to walk in and ask the price..

I have told my two girl frens about the robot and they are quite interested to have a look, they found that the robot is unique and cute as well.. so one of them said she will walk in and ask the price of the robot for me and make me 'die heart' (in cantonese..) haha!! so finally we went into the shop and guess what.. jeng! jeng!.. just the robot itself cost RM938.. not include the necklace.. if together with the necklace and the small ring hang the robot, everything will cost me about RM1500.. Wow!! expensive ha!! although it is expensive but my mind still can't stop thinking of it.. haha!! anyway i am not sure yet whether i will get it later or not but definitely not now.. by the way this collection is 'take me higher!!'..

'TAKE ME HIGHER!!' >> Finally THOMAS SABO has succeeded in cracking NASA’s monopoly: Teflon-coated titanium is out; Sterling Silver with zirconia is in. Finally, this marks the designer label’s entry into orbit from spring 2008 on: small, enchanting rockets, flying saucers and glittering space robots will all enrich Planet Fashion. With their retro look, the new items of jewellery are reminiscent of all those fascinating toys from the 1950s and guarantee a spacey-elegant touch for any outfit in a totally weightless way. The unidentified, fascinating objects will be landing at stores from January 2008 – certain to soon conquer the hearts of all lovers of unusual, fashionable jewellery the world over.

Guess what?? my two girl frens have fall in love with the necklace and bracelet.. those designs are unique bit on the other hand there are quite expensive too.. so we all still 'on hold' and so far none of us decide to buy anything from the shop yet.. let's see who are the one can't control first and go to get our very first Thomas Sabo's collection.. haha!!

new gym.. let's get FIT..!!

Well.. finally i have stop my ex-fitness centre after joining them for 3 years plus.. frankly it is a bit sad bcuz i have get used to the environment and people there, and i am having a happy times with them too.. thanks!!

Started my new gym from this month onwards.. so far I quite like the new environment especially the new equipments, i have found some new equipments that my previous gym does not have, and i quite enjoying using them.. especially the equipment to twice the abs.. hopefully the more i twice my abs will become more firm.. and my waist will become smaller.. haha!! beside equipments, the songs they played in the gym is even much nicer and there is a DJ on air sometime.. another surprised was, the gym is getting more people in the weekday's evening bcuz i remembered my first visit in 2 months ago.. the gym is quiet even it is on weekday's evening.. but yesterday evening the gym is quite noisy and more happening!! that's a good sign!!

But to me the only thing 'missed' is the attendance of the classes especially body pump.. i was there for body pump class at 6.45pm yesterday and only 3 guys attending the class.. OMG!! but outside the studio are lot of people using equipments.. a bit surprised that not so many members there are interested in attending classes.. but on the weekend the attendance of body combat class are quite alright, at least with 10 people in a class.. maybe lot of new member who never try body pump before feel a bit scared to try bcuz it looks so tired and not easy for the movements.. frankly i do feel the same before i start joining body pump.. haha!!

Anyway.. let's work harder and let's get fit in new gym.. YAHOOOOO!!!!

be more alert.. especially ladies with handbag

Last night after our gym, my fren and I were walking to her office somewhere in Jalan Kia Peng to get her car.. when we are walking near the UOA building, there are a pair of white couple (i bet they are tourist) walking in front of us, maybe about 500m ahead.. it was around 9.30pm and it is quite dark and quiet during that time..

this thing happened>> suddenly there is a motorbike moving slowly passed us and the motorbike robber robbed the lady's handbag.. everything just happened 'in a flash!!' the lady not even have time to shout and react.. we can't even help bcuz it was very fast!! moreover we are quite far from the back.. really feel sorry for the lady, hopefully her passport is not inside the handbag else she may have trouble to get out from the country.. beside that, i do feel shame for our country.. this thing just happened in the area where lot of tourists passing by everyday.. it really created a bad image for our country.. its election time again, don't just say but no act!! take some actions to protect us and give us a safer environment to live.. else how you expect us to support you by giving nothing to us...!! oppss... sensitive issue, better don't talk so much here..

well, my fren really shock from what she saw in front of her.. sure her heart beating fast!! but another thing happened after that.. but it is not bad thing la..!! it is some juicy thing then.. haha!! while we are in the car park basement to get the car, we saw there is a man(he is quite uncle liao lo..) and a lady (she is definitely younger then the uncle) naughty-naughty inside the car.. haha!! i didn't really see them but my fren told me she saw the uncle kissing the lady shoulder.. wow!! so juicy..!! i think they noticed us seeing them so the lady turned her car face to the other corner to avoid our vision.. aiyo!! if both also so HIGH!! then find a place to settle, don't do it inside the car, later got caught sure very shame one..
