Home improvement before moving in...

Our apartment is ready but there are still some minor details or add-on that X-T would like do for the unit before we move in. Yesterday evening, he suggest we should buy ourselves a proper sound system for the living room since we love hanging out at home watching DVDs. Next, he thinks the bathroom faucets are kinda old and he wanted to change it too. Well, guess it's gonna be another shopping weekend for us again!

Gadgets..gadgets..gadgets...

How time flies and soon we're going to celebrate Christmas. This year is going to be extra busy for me because I've to get the Christmas presents earlier this year since our wedding falls on the same month. In fact, I'm already starting my Christmas shopping now.. yes NOW! Well, I did some research over the Internet and I found something very interesting to give to the boys.It's called the Slingbox. I wonder if this works in Malaysia... Mmm..

First I tried the game and now I'm addicted...

X-T's passion for badminton has infected me. He plays with his badminton buddies on Saturdays. After the game, I would hear him talk about the new skills he learned, the moves, the speed, the type of shuttlecock and also the rackets. I was thinking, why not I try learning the game since there's a badminton court at our new place? I stopped stepping on my elliptical for a day and asked X-T to take me to the court. Guess what? I never stop playing since that day...

Audemars Piguet?

I was reading TheEdge few weeks ago while X-T was surfing on the lappy. Suddenly, I said, "Hey dearie, Audemars Piguet looks smart hor?". He turned his head and say "Auder Piqu who??". I repeated "AU-DE-MARS PI-QUET the watch my dear!". Haha, I bet he was thinking I was commenting on another rich business tycoon's face on the business weekly newspaper again. Yes, I always do :p

Tis the season to be jolly...

FAT...lala... lala..lala.la...la. It's weird how we Malaysians celebrate it. Whenever a festival is coming up, the first thing in everybody's mind would be what to eat. Where to buy food, how much is enough and what's nice and what's not. To me, celebration is a time to where we can sit together with our family and friends to fellowship but no, what to serve was placed as the TOP priority in every celebration. Well, in any parties, of course there will be food served but it shouldn't be the main superstar for the day. Do you or do you not agree with me? Mmm.. I bet everybody will be talking about the diet pills they're going to try out once the celebration is over.

The Roach & I

Whenever I see a roach, my whole body turns weak, my heart beats faster than usual (maybe I should strap on to a pulse oximeter to check the speed of my heart beat someday) and I felt like I want to faint. When the roach and I meet, I'll be screaming for help. X-T would usually be the hero, running towards me with a can of aerosol. Of course he'll be laughing as he approach me. If you think I'm such a weakling, let me tell you why. It all started when I was only 5. I went to the loo and I saw 2 roaches playing inside the toilet. I wasn't afraid of roaches at that time but as I begin to pee, the 2 brown devil decided to craw up my 'you-know-what' as I pee. That's how my phobia started... :(

Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. @ The Curve, Mutiara Damansara

A gurl's night out with moi sister.

This time around, instead of my fav Paddington Pancakes at The Curve, we tried Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.

Since we were not that hungry that day, we ordered an apetizer & a main dish. Even that, we were struggling to finish.!

An appetizer we ordered and i can't recall the name of this dish. Well, it's Cajun spiced shelled Shrimps with garlic bread.. A ted too oily but it tasted wonderful

That's how we enjoyed the shrimps :)

Bourbon Street Barramundi was the main dish we ordered. If only the dish comes a little warmer, that would be perfect!

The heavy meal was washed down with two glasses of strawberry & blueberry lemonade.

And again, no desserts as our tummies are about to explode...

Scary truck drivers

Last Friday, X-T and I drove all the way to Ipoh for our pre wedding photo shoot. We enjoyed the highway ride all the way to my hometown but the horror starts the minute we arrived at the Simpang Pulai Toll. The trucks are driving so fast and I believe their trucks are empty. Not only that, they cut queues without giving the driver in front and the back a signal. If and only if I'm the transport minister..ahem...I shall sent them all back to truck driving school !

The cute kid with itchy hands

As X-T and I was enjoying our dinner one day, we couldn't resist watching a cheerful little boy sitting next to our table. Well, he is around 3 yrs old, big eyes, brown hair and very spiky too. He was holding on to his daddy's hand phone and he was reminded not to drop it. As he was happily pressing the buttons on the keypad of the phone while chewing on a spoonful of rice, suddenly, he shouted "Oh ho"!. Right away, the dad took the phone away from him and and sighed. Apparently, we heard the man telling his wife that their son has pressed on some numbers and now they need someone who can unlocked cell phones to unlock his phone.
