Touchdown...

alright... so, i was a bit worried about my plane and all, thanks to my smart agent to schedule all my flights about 90 minutes apart, all four flights... so, i flight to Hong Kong was delayed by 15 minutes. This resulted to my having less time to make my connecting flight, luckily, they are Cathay Pacific ground crew waiting for us, and took care of our tickets and all at a special counter. The safety screening was pretty tight in HK, where our carry-on baggage went through an x-ray, then, a pat-down body search by an officer, then, another thorough bag search by another officer. By the time I was through, it was already 20 minutes into the boarding time, and there was a long line for boarding.

So, I actually boarded the plane like 10 minutes before initial departure time. However, due to some problems with seatings and all, another 15 minutes delay occured, big deal. But because of the long flights, a 14-hour flight, we managed to gain those 15 minutes back. Reached Los Angeles at about 10.40pm, by the time I was through immigration checking and collected my luggages, and then re-check-in my luggages for domestic flights, it was about 11pm. My next flight was departing in an hour. So, I started a long jog from terminal 1 to terminal 7 (for those who are familiar with LAX, it was like a decent 5 minutes jog). Then, at the terminal, I went to the counter to get by boarding pass and also to confirm that my luggages will be sent automatically to my final destination, Detroit Wayne County (DTW) airport, and I was told twice, that YES, they will be sent there automatically. OK, cool, I thought. (I was worried because the MAS told me that the luggages were only checked til Chicago, but also, MAS told me a lot of things, which were absolutely WRONG, and heck, I was gonna let it off easy, but well, I was pissed at them, and hence, the following paragraph(s) is(are) dedicated to MAS.

I was surprised how MAS can have the best crew in airline services, probably just the in cabin crew, because the ground crew was far from good. First at check in, I was early, and hence, there wasn't a line, so, I was first in 'line' for check-in. There were 3 open counters, one with 2 ladies chatting, another counter with one guy checking on his cellphone, and a third one, was far from me, and hence, I took it that he didn't see me. So, I waited awhile, and then, decided to walk to the counter rightaway since it was open, there, I waited for another good half a minute until the guy managed to divert his attention from his cellphone to me. I wondered if I should apologize to him for disturbing him from his slacking off from his job.

OK fine, I don't want to be called a bad customer. So, I greeted him, and all, and I showed him my ticket, and then,

He: Do you know about about the new travelling regulations?

Me: Yeah, no liquids and all that.

And so, I check-in my luggages, as I was carrying a laptop bag, he noticed it and asked.
He: Do you know that you can't bring electronics on board for flights in the States?

Me: Really? That's news to me. Are u sure, according to the websites of TSA and United Airlines, electronics are allowed. Isn't that only the case for travellers flying into UK or from UK flying to US?


He: I'm not sure. (woah, if you are not sure, why did u make the first statement about electronics not able to carry on board?) But, if anything happened, MAS will not be responsible for that. (hold on mister, aren't u supposed to check it out for me? oh yar, Cathay Pacific, maybe you want to check with ur partners and make sure they know their stuffs... I paid Cathay Pacific price for Cathay Pacific service, or at least that standard of service... :))


Me: I'm pretty sure about that, I'm keeping my laptop with me, you know how they handle check-in luggage.

He: OK. Here's ur ticket to HK, for other tickets, you have to get it at HK from Cathay Pacific. And I have ur luggages checked til Chicago.

Me: Thanks. (for nothing but more trouble)

OK, back to where I was, after getting my ticket to Chicago, I went through another scanning, pretty quick actually, just the same procedure, with the taking off shoes, which was the same if i remembered correctly, then, it was 11:35 when I reached the gate and boarded the plane, 4 other dudes which were supposed to take the same flight (if i counted correctly missed it because they were held back at LAX immigration office).

On the flight, I met a guy from Taiwan, heading to UPenn for Masters in engineering, we chatted a bit and that's about it. I couldn't sleep (as usual, I could never sleep much on plane, bus and train).

So, the flight to Chicago was great. I reached there 10 minutes earlier than scheduled. Awesome. I texted home to get my dad to call me, (it's cheaper that way and I don't have IDD through my cell, wonder why), chatted with my parents for about 10 minutes, then, I waited in line for a cup of tea, as it was still a 80 minutes wait for me. After getting my tea, I started on some sudoku puzzles. On the flight, I worked on 2 other sudoku puzzles, and after that, we were almost arriving at Detroit. (it was a really short flight from Chicago to Detroit, about an hour.)

There, I waited for my luggage but to no avail, crap, I knew it, those confirmations and reassurance, wth. So, I went to the lost luggage counter and filed a report, and the guy there told me that I should expect my luggage to be sent to me either tonight or today late night. So, well, what can I do. I called up my friend, Ren Jie to pick me up from the airport. Thanks a lot!!!

As I need some stuffs to settle down, we went to the storage to get some stuffs. Then, he dropped me at my dorm, Couzens, I waited for about an hour as the office hours for holiday was retarded, from 12noon til 6pm. So, I settled down, and all, changed into shorts, the weather was great, but a bit warmer than my liking. After that, at first, I went to the newly renovated academic advising office, then, I went to grab my lunch at the Union, Wendy's, then, went to the library and met my friends, and then, went to Ren Jie's place, and then, went to visit Joe, Doug and Alicia at their place. Hung out until 9pm, and I was soooo tired, but still, I couldn't sleep because I was waiting for my luggages. Then, at about half past 11, my luggages finally came. I unpacked a bit, and went to bed at about midnight.

So, Wednesday, my International Orientation Academic Peer Advisor training, where I met 4 other peer advisors, and also academic advisors on the international committee. The training was great, where we learned more about all the requirements and also the purpose of the liberal arts education. Thursday, another long day of training, where we also did a slide presentation to teach students about backpacking classes and also registering for classes.

On Friday, we presented our slides to the advisors, and then, in the afternoon, we attended the parents orientation to answer their questions and all. Viktorina came and visited us!!! Thanks Viktorina! After that, i went to my friends(Alex, Doug and Joe) place, from now on, known as the Rock, and we went all gung ho putting their IKEA furnitures together. Fun!

On Saturday, I demonstrated how to search, backpack and register for classes... and then, I had all the time to my own. Went to bestbuy with Vince - my neighbor, also my friend, also my co-worker at Markley (what coincidence) as he needed to get a gift for his (actually mine too) friend. After that, I just did nothing but surfing the Internet, and also stumble around using StumbleUpon, and then, also sudokus. At night, I had bubble tea smoothies and popcorn chicken for dinner... not too bad, then, went to the Rock where we played, they actually, Guitar Hero, and then, also Fight Night... that's about it.

So, how fun to be back in Ann Arbor? Very fun. No drinking so far... but will be very soon.

Waiting for my rocket to come...

Hey all, it's me again, it has been awhile since I updated you guys about my last week, not really, but it just felt that way for me. I've no idea why, it just felt so.

Anyway, I'm now at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) waiting for my flight to take me back to Ann Arbor, via Hong Kong, Los Angeles and then Chicago, before stopping at Detroit. Whew, that's a mouthful. Good thing is there's wireless here, so, I can rant and I can read up on all the crazy news in the world.

Last week had been a crazy one for me, it's crazy even without the booze and all. My body clock was all messed up, sleeping at 5am, and waking at 10am, and then, going to here and there and everywhere. Fun!!! Fun!!! Fun!!!

So, Monday, I felt so bored as I had been working for 11-weeks and all of a sudden, I'm free, and empty, yup, I've admitted this time and time again, I'm a workaholic. So, luckily, my friend Kenny gave me a Tower Defense game, and so, I did nothing but killing creeps (AI) walking on programed path by building towers, it's about maximizing the money u get from killing creeps, and also the timing of building certain towers at certain time. It's not rocket science, but definitely need some financial management skill, and also, nimber fingers on hotkeys.

So, after much trying, saving and loading (acid-test) kinda strategy, I finally beat the Element TD playing super hard mode, without heroes! :) I'm soooo proud of myself, having spent more than 10 hours mastering that map. :)

So, I was bored. On Tuesday, my bro's off day, so we went to 1 Utama to watch movies and shop. Again, I was the lamp post, always shining on my bro and Chloe. We watched Garfield 2 at CineLeisure, a nice complex with the Cinema and 3 other outlets operating. :)
The movie was funny, above average funny, but not great.

So, after that, we went to 1 Utama for an early dinner, at Nando's, just to use up my free meal voucher and a discount voucher. :) It was all too spicy, but good. An exciting dining experience. Should have ordered the not so hot choices.. :)

After the dinner, we went to walk about, as I needed to shop before going back to the states, and also, Chloe was hunting for a pair of white shoes for her sis' wedding ceremony. So we walked for hours, and then, we stopped by Kluang Station for tea, and then, walked about again, 1 Utama is huge, and then, finally, it was time for our second movie of the day, Click. It was really really good movie. Meaningful, and also, hilarious. So, after the movie, we went down to KL, near Petaling street for noodles, it was sooooo oily but sooooooo goood... The Lou Shu Fun was amazing....

Got home, at about 2am, and then, hung around until 4am, and then went to bed... it was all great...

The next day, I was pretty bored too. Oh yar, I went to renew my passport on Monday afternoon, and collected it this morning. Then, I .... couldn't remember.

Thursday, I forgot what I did, but it was all too fun. I think!

Friday, woke up early in the morning, went down to the office HQ at the Petronas Twin Tower to get my last portion of my internship allowance. After that, my dad and I continued our journey, taking LRT to terminal Putra, and from there, took a bus, and then a cable car ride to Genting. It was all good. I walked into the Genting Casino for the first time, and had a buffet lunch there. 'Invested' some money playing slots and that's about it. Being a Math major, and figuring out some of the payouts and all, I think slots have the best entertainment value, and kill more time... Later that day, my bro and Chloe came and we met up, awhile later, my dad took a reversed journey home, and my bro, Chloe and I stayed back for the Twins' concert later. It was alright. If not because of the VVIP tix that my aunt gave, we wouldn't pay a cent to watch the show... :) Sorry if I offended any Twins' fans out there... :)

My eldest bro went too, and he went to the casino for a hand or two, and we got back down at about 2am. Reached home about 3am.... Was dead tired.... :)

Saturday, other than the crazy DoTA experience at night, I forgot what I did... oh yar, I remembered, my bro and I went to have lunch at Mum's place... the nasi lemak was great, and the Portuguese Devil Curry was better... later, we went to Summit USJ to buy DVDs and all, and then, I, yes, I repeat, I drove back... Driving an auto for the first time in my life, risking my bro's less than 2-month old car, was great. And it's a HONDA... :)

At night, the DOTA was insane, I was served so badly, but well, it was all fun... need more training, but don't think I want to spend my time in the states doing that...

Sunday, I went to Sunway Pyramid to buy some gifts and all, after that, my bro's frens got us to play DOTA again! crap, played 3 games, won 1, lost 2... not too bad... the badminton match early in the morning was great too...

Man U dominated the game at night... amazing, and a confident 5-1 win... was busy packing and all, it was all wierd for me, feeling bad leaving home again, also longing to go back at the same time... crap.. i felt like shit... and finally, almost done with packing at 2am... after some internet surfing and reflecting and all, went to bed at 3am...

So, here I am, it's finally time for me to go to the gate, and will be boarding the plane soon... take care, and I'll be back soon!!!

thank you all... special love to my mom, dad, and bros.... :)

take care!!!

Tests....

So, I was(still am) having a slight headache, and after popping a couple of paracetamols, while waiting for the headache to go away, I decided to I'm doing tests on pills... :) ooops... and here are the results... (might not be reliable, not because of the tests themselves, but because I'm under influence of drug... :) kekeke...

So, as you guys know, last Friday was my last day at work, so, it had been pretty good for my last week because my colleagues were stopping to give me additional tasks, and let me finish what was on my plate because, after all, it was my last week.

So, it was all pretty and merry... going home at 7, reaching home 8 something... So, on Friday, my last day of work, we went to this nice Thai restaurant, Bangkok Jam at BB Plaza, where my colleagues gave Mel and Me another treat. Thanks guys!!!

It was a pretty long lunch, and by the time we got back to the office, it was nearly 3.30pm, and we needed to settle some things and all, after snapping a few quick shots, it's time for us (Kim Tat, Mel and I , the 3 interns at the project) to leave for KLCC, where we will be attending an interns social event...

there, we met all the other interns, 15 of us in total, and we introduced ourselves and also talked about what we learned from work, to sum it all up, we learned a lot about Excel and Powerpoint :)

So, we got to meet some of the full time hires of all level, and a little tour around the nice office, and after that, a makan-makan session, where we got to chat more over food... it was great getting to know other interns...

After that, it was about 7 by the time we were done with everything, I gave my colleagues a call and told them where we would be for drinks. Since it was Friday nights, the bars were packed. But luckily enough, we got a place a Chinoz in the Park, which had pretty good atmosphere and ambience, for chatting, and some good Tetley's. so, I had 2 pints of Tetley's, and I think that was the most I had in one session since coming back to Msia. QOTD: Do you know UK pint is bigger than US pint?!?! Now you know. :)

After the drinking, it was about 9.30pm, I walked around the KLCC complex to kill some time so that I can reach Kelana Jaya at around 10.30pm, just in time for my bro to pick me up from the LRT station. So, got home at about 11pm, did nothing much...

Got a great night sleep, did nothing much on Saturday, other than going to Sunway Pyramid, wanted to watch the movie Click, but couldn't get the ticket, and hence, screwed the plan, and went straight for Genki Sushi, which was not as good as before, and then, went hunting for presents for birthdays of 2 friends, and then, got it, and went home. At night, after dinner, went to my friend's place for his birthday party, met up with a bunch of old friends, and it was great.

Sunday, went badminton early morning, at 10am, not really that early come to think about it. Landed awkwardly on my left ankle, wasn't too bad, just a lil bit sprained, and went home at about 11.30am, rushed out again after a rushed shower, going to Kajang to visit uncles and aunts, and had great paper-wrapped chicken for lunch, and then, got home at about 5pm. Started killing creeps playing Tower Defense... dang, I still can't beat the very hard mode with using heroes... crap... I feel dumb..

Monday, woke up this morning at 10, just enjoying how good it was to be not working...(the waking up late part was good, but, OK, wandering around the house, having nothing to do is sooo not me.. i'll admit, I'm a workaholic... so, big deal??) anyway, went to renew my passport at about 11.45am, got there, filled up the form, which cost me RM 1, and then, took photos there. RM 7, and then idiotic me, forgot my pen, and hence, needed to borrow from others (one of my biggest mistakes for some time as I had always been bringing a pen with me, since started college, unforgivable)

So, after I had everything prepared, I queue up (line up) for a number, and then, got to know that my number was of the next batch, after lunch. Dad and I went to meet up with his friend and we went for good fish-head curry... after lunch, we got back to the immigration office at 2pm, and waited a good 45 minutes before my number was called. My new passport would be good for collection tomorrow (today) afternoon...

That's about it... pictures will be up soon..

Amazing Ipoh trip(reads food)...

So, last week was just another quick week, so quick that I can really remember much of it...

So, I'll start with the amazing Friday dinner (project dinner, cum the farewell dinner of a number of us), at Jogoya @ Starhill.

The food choices were amazing, with soo much seafood that I can't name them here. Scallops, oyster, clams, squid, salmon, crabs, shrimps, grouper, cod... many more... the highlight of the buffet was the coconut drink. Crazy, I had 7 coconuts for the night. I'll try to put up some photos later, and you guys will see for yourself. Sorry if you are expecting photos of every single dishes, like what I posted in my post of Penang food trip, but I sucked in my photoblogging this time, probably I was too hungry to care much, and hence, I only have like few photos of the food at Jogoya. Sorry again!

So, 18 of us were there eating and chatting and chilling til about 10.30pm and we left as some of us needed to catch train and whatnot. So, reached home at about 11.20pm, (thanks Ryan), and packed my bag for tomorrow's Ipoh trip and went to bed at about 1am.

Saturday

So...woke up this morning slightly after 7am, and got up ... alright...
will update this later...
alright... so, i think i'll just cut & paste it from the email I wrote to the MM-Daily groupies...

" Hey all,

I'm writing so much that I'm running out of title. So, it's me again, the more-often-than
weekly email.

So, last weekend, it was insanely good and insanely fattening, i'm pretty sure I gained
at least 1kg over the week, not only did i consume much more than normal, I missed my
weekly run again.

So, i did consume much more than normal, why did I do that??

It was Friday, and I was told to organize a project dinner. So, after being given the
greenlight and was told the budget, I started searching for a great buffet, and found
Jogoya @ Starhill, a high-end Japanese buffet chain from Taiwan!

The food was AMAZING. The range of fresh seafood available is more than the type of fish
you can name from the top of ur mind. Yup. I know u guys can't really name any, other
than Poh yi, and probably Putt, I'm challenging Phua, Keng Yang, Mel, and Eric and others
to try to name like 10 type of fish :)... oh yar, no googling pls...

And the fresh raw oyster was as big as my palm, and the selection of sushis... and what
not... also, they got unlimited supply of fresh coconut... it was soo goood that I had 7
coconut that night... also, even the ice-cream was soo good... Movenpick (with 2 dots on
top of the O)...

and also, the selection of cakes and cookies as dessert... i had sooooo much that i can't
sit down comfortably. :)

So, if you got the dol to spend, and also the appetite, definitely, go for Jogoya, it's
definitely one of the best buffet in Malaysia, (chia chye, go for the shrimps before its
extinction due to our over-consumption)

On Saturday, the bunch of 5 (Mel, Kai - the Seremban clan, and May Ying, Jin Ye and I -
the KL clan) terrorized our way to Ipoh. :)
We reached Ipoh at about 1 in the afternoon. The Seremban clan was like 15 minutes
behind. Met Putt, or should be start calling him Ah Wai, like his mom does... ;p, which
he already bought us nice soya bean milk... so, 5 + 1 of us packed into his gold Honda
City...

as Putt was known for his quick hands, and feet, and hence, the car too, those at the
back, were swinging from side-to-side, luckily it wasn't a leather seat back, or else, we
would be sliding from left to right, to left, and back to right again. :) Joyride eh...

So, first stop, we went to get the Gai Si Hor Fun, also Custard as dessert. The Gai Si
Hor Fun was great... the soup, the noodle... nice. And the dessert, a bit jelat after the
whole thing, i think it would be great if it's only half portion of it. But well, it was
reall good.

The CUSTARD....

Mel & Jin Ye enjoying savoring the custard... Look at Mel's and Jin Ye's expression... worth a million dollar man...
And of course, the infamous Ipoh's Kai Si Hor Fun...

The next stop, was the Kaya bun and the kaya rice... The kaya was amazing as well.
Personally, I like it a lot because it was very fragrant, but it wasn't too sweet...
Here's the Kaya bun and the Kaya glutinous rice... :)

And then, the amazing Chee Chueng Fun... we waited for an hour, at least, and but, it was worth every second of the long wait... really... the noodle was soooooo fulled of the shrimp aroma, that, crap, just writing this made me wanna eat it again....


Then, if I remember correctly, we went to get Tau Foo Fa... This was also another unique
experience because, there's actually a drive-thru Tau Foo Fa in Ipoh... lol... it's at
Funny Mountain (the name of the place/stall). Will get the pix up soon. And, back to the
tau foo fa, it's smooth, where u can actually feel it sliding down ur tongue, down ur
throat, the smooth and warm feeling down the throat was just different from any other tau
foo fa i've tried, OK, probably not, but it was good... :)Told ya... it's a drive-thru tau foo fa stall...

After the Tau Foo Fa, we bought a steam-boiled salted chicken... and after a decent
'joyride', we reached ah Putt, aka ah Wai's HUT... it was ginormous for a HUT, and after
settling down, we set our fingers on the poor chicken, with Mel leading the pack on
stripping it buck-naked (it was packed with a layer of wax-paper first), and then, May
Ying and Jin Ye joined in, and well, don't want to miss out on any of the action, Kai and
I participated in spreading and tearing the chicken too... :)

The herb taste of the chicken was great, and it wasn't too salty, and it was juicy
throughout, even the breast meat, which was the easiest to get dry and tasteless was
smooth and nice...

So, after the chicken experience, we watched the video of ah Putt, aka ah Wai, skydiving
experience... lol... well, it's hard for me to put it down in words, you just have to see
it... :) One thing for sure, I'm so excited after watching the video that I've decided
that I would definitely go on a skydiving/bungee jumping if there's a chance... trust
me... :) (i've even put aside some money for these stuffs for my next trip...)

Next up, after some resting and all of us but Mel having taken a shower, we set off for
dinner, with Putt't, i mean Wai's family. OK, now I know why others from Northern
Malaysia, always complain about the food in KL being expensive, especially seafood... So,
9 of us, had a 9 course dinner... yup... (no pics here because it was like a sit-down
dinner, with Wai's family, a bit out of place for a camera to be flashing when everytime
food's serve) So, no camera there... but the food was great... let me list them down:
Fish porridge, salted egg shrimps, steamed crab, claypot crab rice, stir-fried brinjal
aka eggplant, intestines(wai's favorite), fishballs, another vege, and the last but not
least, i forgot, someone might be able to recall the ninth dish. :)

So, after the dinner, we went to get dessert again... got a variety of it, and it was
good. Not much to talk about...

As we were all filled to the top by then, we decided to chill out for a moment, before
continuing to our next itinerary, i mean food stop, soo, we went for a movie at Kinta
City, and we decided on watching The Break-up, starring Vince Vaughn (the Weddings
crasher joker) and the all-so-meat-eating-beautiful Jennifer Aniston... :) it was a good
laugh, but not really that good, but in the movie, they did mention Ann Arbor and the
wolverines... :)

Came out, at about 1.30am, wanted to go for the famous Ipoh Bean sprouts and Chicken, but
well, when we reached there, we saw no chicken hanging at the stall, NO CHICKEN!!!, and
the workers were starting to clean up the place... crap, most probably, because of the
7th month of the lunar calendar, in chinese belief, the ghost festival thingy...

So, we were all so tired when we reached the HUT at about 2am, initially planning to wake
up at 6 something next morning for the infamous Fu Shan dim sum... but well, waking up at
6 something, that's impossible than impossible itself, sooo, well, i woke up at 6.15am,
well, it was all too dark, and others were still sleeping away, i rested my eyes, and
woke up again at 6.55am, and well, others were still sleeping, i sms-ed putt and he was
awake, he replied... but others were still sleeping, so, i went back to sleep as well,
and woke up around 7.30am again, and then this time, i was just nesting in the bed, doing
nothing, while waiting for others to come into senses... Kai was there sms-ing too... :)

finally, ppl starting to wake up at 8am... and then, after brushing up and all, we set
off for dim sum and bid goodbye to Wai's HUT and Mel's sis, ooops, i mean Putt's mom... :)

(oh yar, there was an on-going joke, more like observations, that Mel's very lady-like...
lady-like as in auntie-like :), the way she holds a plastic bag, or her handbag... and
her hairstyle... :) kekeke... ) sorry Mel, just have to say this...

So, the dim sum was great.. we waited for about good 20 minutes before getting an empty
table... the shrimps in the Har Kao was huge, and succulent... and many other kinda dim
sum was just great... those waitresses, old but mighty, in their cute uniform was also a
'sight'... keke....

Some of the dimsums, before I got tooooo consumed by consuming the dim sum...

After dim sum, we went for noodle, which was also very good... :)

And then, we went around getting food stuffs to bring home... Sak Kei Ma, Kacang tumbuk,
kaya puffs, and ...

and our last stop before heading to the Perhentian Medan Gopeng, was to go to a Cave, Kek
Lok Tong (Mel, again, it's not edible...when ah Wai first proposed to bring us to the Kek
Lok Tong, and Sam Poh Tong... caves, Mel thought it was some Ipoh delicacies... :))
Beautiful lotus flower... :)
Not as beautiful lake... :)
Kek Lok Tong is a limestone cave.
Koi and all in the pond...
A nice man made (i think) waterfall... :)

The caves was great... we took our one and only group photo there... attached it is... :)

So, we boarded our bus, heading south back to KL and Seremban respectively, at about 3pm
and 2.30pm accordingly... and well, reached home abt 6ish...
Many thanks to PUTT...

Oh yar, the entire trip, with transportation and all, also, all the foodstuffs we bought
for family, cost us about RM150 each... which was amazingly cheap, according to Mel, she
couldn't believe that it was that cheap, only 50% of her budget... she was bugging me
yesterday asking, did you count this? that? and also that?? and what else?? NO NO NO...
you haven't, u still owe like RM 999,999,999.99... that's 1 cent to a billion ringgit...
:)

That's about it, for our trip up to Ipoh...
Again, pics will be up on my blog soon... can't do it here, because for some good reasons
(yeah rite), flickr is flagged as sites containing 'nudity', how i wish no!?!?!


In a nutshell(did go to Menglembu, but didn't get the groundnuts there), it was an
amazing weekend... amazingly short, but amazingly good... :)

Not sure, if this email was hitting the 10kb mark... but hopefully it does... ;)
How about others' weekend??"

Off to Ipoh for 2 days..

Alright, the buffet dinner at Jogoya @ Starhill last night was the best buffet I ever had. Amazing. Will talk more about it next Monday.

Will be going off soon, need to catch a bus to Ipoh, to visit my friend with my friends for the weekend.

Ciao...
