Cameron Highland again

If you know me well enough, you should know that Cameron Highland is considered my second "hometown" as my sister married with my brother in-law who works as a tomato farmer there. As usual, this time I was "pulled" by my mum to go there again. I believe the last visit of you guys to this place is during your primary school trip.

Indeed, Camero Highland is quite a boring place, however, many people do longing for its cold and comfort environment here.

It would be an ideal place if you would like to have release your stress which burden you in the cities, or if you would like to marry a village girl...

or a village guy...

uncle seems a bit too old to you? :)

Places of entertainment? You better think twice again. Most of the shops here close at 10pm. It's really unlike KL, where youngsters hanging around at mamak stalls at unearthly hours, almost everyday, without missing it. The most you can do is visit some places of interest like strawberry park, cactus park, BOH tea center, or cyber cafes. (They opened a lot cc lately.)

I will be staying here until this weekend. Do post your request at the side -------------------->
if you would like me to bring you some souvenirs e.g Strawberries, vegetables, tomatoes, and village girls (no way loL!)

Unexpected Gathering

All the while I've been wanting to contact all my long-lost primary schools friends since I went up to Form1. However, among all of them, only 2 are still sticking with me. While the rest are like tear drops into the sea. Big thank to God, after so long, I am still able to meet back many of them in this special gathering...

Do do do do..... (Phone Ringing)
Me: Harlo? Who's on the line?
xxx: Is this Kok Fai? This is Siew Sin ar.... Do you still remember me?
Me: (Surprised) OmgWtfBBQ!!! Hey! Of course I remember! How are you doing?
xxx: Tonight we will be calling for a gathering, at look out point! A lot of our primary friends are joining! Come lah!
Me: No problem! Hey I'm so surprised that there's be this special gathering tonight. Who organised it actually?
xxx: Who who who la... (You guys don't need to know who =P). He will be leaving for UK in the following month, so he planned this gathering.

Out of my surprise, I still able to meet with my long lost friends! It would be quite a pity as my friends like Yung Lin, Andy they all, still remain very close with their primary schoolmates. I've been wanting to be like them so long! Finally the chance hits me! Yahoo!~

I was recalling their names one by one, able to score 8/13!

Malacca Trip

Went to Malacca with my ex college friends last week. They are all from TARC and I haven't been seeing them for one year plus since I left tarc. Thanks to fate that I met Phoebe while I was working @ Jusco Bukit Tinggi and I got informed about this, and that is how this journey started.

Upon arriving at Malacca, the first thing that we did was... What else? Chicken rice ball! That's one of the famous local flavours in Malacca. For those of you who are going there, this special chicken rice ball is definitely a MUST try.

After that, we went to have a walk at the famous street of Malacca, The Jonker Street. There are a lot of souvenirs shops, as well as the Sir nama organizations along this street. Owning to the reason that Chinese new year is near, the whole street is decorated with red lanterns.

Not to forget, after your meal, do try out the Ice Kacang here. It has durian flavour and Coconut flavour. Especially when the fervent sun is shining high in the sky.

Prosperous year to me?

Been working for so many agents, but I would say my current agent is the best agent I've ever seen. To those of you who still don't know, I'm currently working as a promoter for nikon, and Kenny is my agent & my boss (He arranged the jobs to me.). Since new year is coming, he had actually arranged 3 tables of dinner party for our promoters. Besides that, everyone who presents would receive one piece of 1GB memory card. What a generous agent he is. I'm really lucky can have such agent! :) On top of that, he also organised a lucky drawing at the end of the dinner. When the lucky draw starts, everyone seemed so nervous because we were wondering what will we get if we are drawn. When he shouted "888169", I looked down at my paper which was stapled at the back of the memory card cover, "888169"! What the hell, I got it! It was an angpao. In my mind I was thinking... "Hmm the most also Rm50 guar...". Who knows when I opened it, Rm200. Oh what the hell... That amount surprised me so much! I was really lucky to be drawn. Maybe it indicates that this is a prosperous year to me? :)

Cow Car Water - Ara Damansara

Sonner or later the name "Cow car water" will be very familiar to you. But what exactly is this? A cow? A car? Or a car with a pool where the cow is swimming inside?





Ok ok enough. Cow car water is actually a newly established center of attraction. The idea is exactly same as the cow car water in Singapore, which transformed a block of shoplots into a shopping-complex-like street. (Refer to Petaling Street).

Went there yesterday with my mum, nothing much to shop there as there are still a lot of empty shoplots to be rented. If you are planning to go there, it's best to go there at night as the man-made sakura there will grow, making the atmosphere very nice.

Too bad I do not own a camera, and my handphone is sent for repair purpose. Else I would have posted a lot more pictures about there. If you or your family are planing to buy some potted plants or decorations, it's a must go place as a lot of them are selling these along the main street. For more info you all can visit Ara Damansara website.

Your friend... the water blowing champion

Finally I see Yung Yee online. So I ask him to send me those pictures so that I can update my langkawi blog. Just look what he said:

How the hell on this earth we can get a 32GB pendrive which only costs u RM15? Your friend ar... I'm really speechless.

Again... what the heck!

Trip to Langkawi

Finally here is the long awaited update. I have to apologize as I was really busy till I don't even get the chance to touch my computer. Anyway, here is the post on my trip to Langkawi. Though I did not really enjoy it, however, sharing the happiness moment with friends still leaving me an unforgetable memory.

Langkawi, is an island located in the state of Kedah. This beautiful island is famous for its foods, and not to forget, it is also the paradise for alcoholics and chocolate lovers. (I bought a lot of chocolate!)

My friends and I went there by airbus, which is not recommended if you plan to save money to shop there. A more economic choice is by bus, costing you Rm35 & allowing you to "enjoy" 8 hours of sleep. (This is how we got back to KL). Upon arrival, five of us: wei hoe, kenneth, wong hon, yung yee and me, rented a motorcar for RM250, term is until the day we leave. Then we started to explore this little island.

Foods over here! Must try!
I have to admit that the foods here are toothsome! In particular the sotong goreng! No doubt the prices here would higher than normal. An average meal for 5 persons would cost you around RM70 over here. Do order the BBQ at the beachside if you happened to be there for dinner.

WILL CONTINUE UPDATE AND POST PICTURES SOON!

The Year of 2008

When you are getting elder and elder, time seem to fly faster and faster. Without notice, the year 2008 has come. Look back in the past one year, have u acheived your mission which was set earlier or anything that you are satisfy with? As for me, definitely NOT! Haha... However, 2008 has come, which also means that I'm stepping into my adulthood. So what I gonna do in this year are:

1) Build a better networking with my friends (I admit I've been a lazy guy in the past one year)
2) Quit gaming (This is my aim since form5 lol)
3) Study hard in order to obtain a scholarship to further my studies in Australia
4) Be alert to the news in stock market and pay more attention in analyzing the market
5) Lastly, UPDATE MY BLOG more frequent! hehe...

I've set my missions. What about u? :) Happy new year!

Happening Weekend!

I was place at sungai wang plaza to promote camera last week. My booth was being set up right opposite the stage, at concourse. In these 3 days time, I've watched a lot (really a lot) of shows & events going on stage. I would say that I was paid to watch the show, as the booth's position was not strategic at all. While there is a show going on, the crowd would eventually gathered infront of the stage, thus blocking all the potential customers. As for last week my total sales in 3 days were 2 units. (which is the worst in my sales life) :) Anyway, here are some eye catching events happened:

Power Ranger Mystic Force

Beginning last week, power rangers mystic force would go on stage to have a snap with the kids every 1, 4, and 7pm. There would be a live show on beating monsters as well. The shows are all the same and I've watched it over and over again for 3 days. Being a camera promoter, of course, I would not miss the chance to capture some pictures with the power rangers. (I heard that all these rangers are paid Rm300/day) Wow...

The power rangers mystic force!

Prize Giving Ceremomy

In the past one month shoppers were open to participate in this attractive event organised by Sungai Wang Plaza; Anyone who spends more than RM30 in sungai wang plaza shall entitle one entry in the lucky draw held later. Grand prizes like one Nissan Latio (what the heck?), Osim massage chairs, massage belts, handphones were given out like nobody's business. One thing which i find very weird was, Why would people participated yet they do not appear themselves on the prizes drawing day? This is what happened. While the winner of the biggest and most attractive prize (the car of course) are called, it was belong to a girl, who is 18 this year, spent Rm70 in the 6th floor. Her name was being called many times and yet nobody goes up to claim it. Obviously she DID NOT attend the ceremony. I believe if i were the girl i would jump down from KL tower.

As a result the winner has to be re-drawn and the car was won by a guy who spent EXACTLY rm30 in sungai wang plaza. Lucky fella!

Photos to be posted later...

Third PC Fair of the year

As usual, the pc fair this time was held at kl convetion center. I was positioned in Hall 2 selling cameras. On the second day, I was able to walk around visiting the different booths in the morning. This time those famous brands' booths in the main hall were really surprised me. Compare to previous one, this time all the booths (Sony, Canon, Toshiba, Epson) were all well designed. Picture speaks more than words.

Due to time constraint, I only able to capture few booths. The PC fair this time, it was rather boring because there were not many computer accessories sold. Maxis broadband people are what you could see, inviting you to subscribe their broadband. I heard that they had 14 booths in this fair. Can you imagine one booth with 20 people? Even my booth was blocked by these people. (They really blocked the traffic very much) O ya the digi yellow man did come on the second day, because digi's CEO was there on the 1st day and was damn unhappy seeing all the green color shirts people. To fight back, there was an order to all digi staffs "Wear our digi t shirt and come to pc fair walk around. You are paid rm170/day and whatever expenses are claimable!" Wow that was so g@y! (One of my friend is working for digi, and he told me about that.)

While for the girls, I'm quite happy that I had the pleasure to become the photographer for Toshiba show girls. (In fact one of them is my friend. hehe). Here are the pics! Don't ask me for the names & numbers! I don't know! lol...

Toshiba show girls

happy moment :)
