Lore of Astrology

throwing queen

You people know already lah I like to throw and tidy up things one. On and off you people will be saying 'chi kei lor fu lei san one lah you' when hearing that I am doing that AGAIN. Well, I can not stand things to be untidy mah. I know some of you have already said that it's OK, but still......for me, there must be accumulatively some things bound to be out of the track, not placed properly etc, right?! *Siao liao this cha bor* *roll eyes* ?!

I've been doing the cleaning and throwing chores for 3 rooms over the last two days. All started due to the servicing and relocation of those air conds lah. If possible, I hardly place many things outside that will end up easily collecting dust and need washing and cleaning often etc lah. So now with the kids around, I ought to be even more careful. This time I took this opportunity to keep whatever can be hidden from their hands one inside the cabinets all, I mean, aside from those already properly kept long long time ago. I keep and hide more this round. *Siao liao this cha bor* *roll eyes again*?!

Hahahahaha! zhao for yap mor liao! :p

Food migration

FYI I will be moving all my food blogs to Cariso Delicacies Corner. Gradually bit by bit lah har. I can't do it over one night lah coz there are too many of them. I need to go through one by one and edit all the links inside & etc too. Reason for this move is I want to make it an exclusive food blog of mine. This Cariso Cariso Cariso will remain as my online diary for life update. For those who got the 'private' key,, again, I know by doing such migration, I am adding another URL that you need to check out = extra work. Very very very sorry. *wink*

Starsucks

For me such a person who doesn't drink coffee at all one, ya, Star-sucks or Coffee-bins. :)

Yesterday I was kinda 'gong gong' drank that I-dunno-what coffee with vanilla, instead of my pure vanilla shake. It could be either that fellow or the waiter who had placed the order wrongly.

After my first sip,"How come got coffee inside my vanilla one?!" GOSH!

I continued to drink lah, sayang mah. Then I thought after so many years perhaps I have 'improved' already leh. Never mind lah.

When I was about to drive home, I started to "orgh! orgh! orgh!...." but nothing came out.

And you know what?! The best thing was I stayed awake till ~ 4 -5.am. :(

FYI the last time I vomitted after drinking the coffee from Starsucks or Coffeebins was ~6 years ago.

Friend, I am giving you a warning here ah. Next time if you want me to fan min (反面) with you ah, very easy only lah, you just have to order one cup of coffee nia lah. That's it. 我肯定会憎死你! :p

p/s : While I was there, wow.....at the back of my seat was the main entrance to TGIF. People already started asking," What is the X'mas menu har? Can do booking or not har?" blah blah blah......

The Secret Lovers (秘密男女)

Haha! Looking at the title you must be thinking I gonna talk about BGR right? No way man. It's a korean drama lah! :p

Gosh, it has been quite some time since I last chose after drama like this. I still remember the last time I kinda siao one was Triumph in the Sky (TVB series). That's how its effect of Italy has on me lah! :) Everytime after watching I surely regretted one lah coz wasted too many cheng shin mah. Everytime after that I also 'vowed' not to chase after any drama series anymore if not by accident. :)

So this one also came by accidentally one lah. The other day simply browsed through the channels after watching a makan show (astro) and so happened it's this korean drama, so I mah watch and see loh. So ngam it was episode 1 tim woh! So sei for liao loh! Tiuk tiao liao loh after 3 days.

Ai....so now I have managed to finish watching it through 'other' channel. :) Gosh! I cried like siao for the last episode! Of coz not because of the main actress got cancer or ill this type of storyline lah OK (like normal Korean drama got one).

I love to watch all the main four actors/actresses in this drama especially this Kim Suk-Hoon. Ya I know most of you will surely comment again," Lao chek one! Uncle liao leh! " Ha! You people should know already mah. Beh tong leh, hior?! :)

秘密男女 (The Secret Lovers) featuring 韓智慧 Han Ji-hye,金石鄖Kim Suk-hoon,宋善美 Song Seon-mi,權伍中 Kwan Oh-joong.

Playing now is "I'd Rather Dance With You" by Kings of Convenience (one of the songs in "The Secret Lovers").

Take off your masquerade

Whatever the past is let it be bygones
I have read through your masquerade
There has been so many people stepping in and out
I have always been the one watching at your stupid behaviour from far
I know whatever you did will make yourself end up being a lonelystar
It turns true now

You can say whatever you want
But do you really feel them
Do you mean what you say
Do you understand who you are
Do you know what you did

Everything has come too late
To let it be as how we are right now is the only possibility

You have broken too many hearts
Guess you've known too
But chose to ignore
You took all their love for granted
Why oh why
And now the show is over
Say good-bye for all

You deserve to be what you are right now
I am sorry to say so


*Playing now is "Take A Bow" by Madonna*

(Curious at what made me writing so sentimentally? Go to find out at the private F room *wink* )

Lame

I just could not understand how come those people who behaved entirely different in front vs at the back of their papas managed to get away for what they have done. How come these papas continue to believe their daughters(or sons) are working fine with the rest? Are the papas aware of that? or are they closing one eye and opening one eye?! :)

For example, "Yes, yes, yes.....hmm....yes yes yes....but Mr. (or Ms) so and so said hor, this one no good.....cannot use.....I told him oledi......but he said hor......so he insisted like that wor...."

Hey, in front of your papa talking about your own business enough lah. Why got to DIG those people names out in order to back up or defend yourself as if you are so damn innocent meh. Somemore the history of everything was brought up even the little tiny unofficial conversation between you two little casts.

Sometimes we as the third party hearing such kind of conversation really 'cold-sweating' man ! I could not imagine what reaction the Mr. (or Ms.) so and so will have if he (or she) was to know this person talking like this to the papa behind him (or her), backstabbing him (or her). Somemore those kind of intonations used during the conversation were not meant for the whole incident or the parties involved but to this fella alone nia nia due to attitude problem mah.

This type of person just doesn't know how to weigh. If you are good enough you no need to say bad about people. You only got to drag people's names out when you are lame.

Lame. lame . lame.

Audees Nite

Audees Cuisine . Wine . Jazz @ Burmah Road.

We tried out this Audees on Saturday night. Phew ~! We 7x managed to reserve a joined table finally without advance booking. *sweating* Sitting behind us was the Pensonic blah blah blah whom we no need to mention here lah har....hmm...including one of their chinese spokesmen aka the Mr.Postman.

So you can see lah from the pic below that sitting inside got aircond + live guitar music song loh *All of us enjoyed the songs lah. That singer got sa-sa voice, I like it!* whereas sitting 'outside' har (left bottom), a bit hot lah + no music loh. So you better do reservation if you are thinking of going k. (04-2298022)

That day set dinner was at RM68++. I 'sum see see' too but ended up none of us ordered. We opted for ala carte menu coz like that then only we can choose our own special desserts mah. :)

Clockwise : garlic bread, pumpkin soup, spaghetti marinara, honey roast duck spaghetti, lamb combo, grilled salmon. Aiks, I forgot to snap soft crab spaghetti leh(!).
Ya lah, I was the one choosing marinara loh coz I missed the seafood marinara spaghetti with big juicy scallops back in Cafe 8 at SF one so much. Mana tau ......ai........disappointed loh. Somemore I got to eat those shredded shells in my spaghetti tim! Next time no more ala carte liao, must go for set liao.
Oh ya, the lamb was heard to be good lah. The rest should be good too except the soft crab spaghetti kua.

Desserts : Warm apple cake, tiramisu, forgot-dunno-what . The desserts were all pretty good. Its tiramisu came with very strong wine taste inside oh. :) My apple cake was good but lacking 'special' surprise for me loh coz "hmm....how come the taste was like the 'roti' dessert that I used to eat in canteen one ah?"! :p

Hehe....got bamboo bench oh inside the toilet. So nice leh for ladies toilet. :)


After dinner, we went to upstair for jazz live band performance.


We were lucky that we got the 'exclusive' private corner reserved. Super soft cozy sofas that made you melting on it!
We were lucky also lah for some of us were treated free for a few glasses of drinks by its taukeh including 'Hot Lovers' and the rest of I-dunno-what-it-called drinks. I guess those free drinks added up the amount should be more or less equivalent to what we ordered kua.

They were pretty fresh. Just came back from US. That's what I heard lah.

Hard Rock Nite II

一分钱一分货! Clear pic from more canggih camera lai liao. :)
Go Hard Rock Nite II.

Hard Rock Nite

Our annual dinner this year was themed as Hard Rock Nite. Here you go! More to be added later on k. I am still waiting for the pic from the rest.

Fat tou yao for! Si peh TL.

There were people who SNEAK into my blog. Yes, I use this term coz
(i) they were not 'invited' by me.
(ii) they never come in front of me saying "Hey, I read your blog lah or blah blah blah" at least acknowledging me.

Disclamer : This does not apply to those who came in through the site that I subscribed to or through the search engine on certain topics randomly.

I have so far met two uninvited guests only who came confessing to me that they did so. I appreciated that. :)

I stress again over here. If you are not humorous, narrow-minded, religion-biased, racist, easily irriated, someone who does not know the internet languages or the meaning of those ":)" icons or sort of, DON'T read my blog coz you may interprete what I said here using your own 'tone'.

I do not want a term likes 'comment / opinion/ point of view ' ended up becomes 'curse'. I do not wish what and how I express my feeling here being distorted.

Whatever 'conversation' I wrote here or quoted here, I have already talked or did the same to the persons I mentioned or quoted, so please dun cho gao gao. We are kam cheng enough to let me write in the tone I used to write. Mind your own business.

For those who were giggling there thinking that I did not know who you were - who sneak into my blog since day one - please go and polish up your skill, you have never been invisible to me at any one time. I remained silent coz I was patient enough. Go and learn the ethics of reading blogs.

If you dare to sneak into my blog to read, dare to put comments or suggestions at my blog after reading. Do it too with your REAL NAME or nick which I know, not anonymous.

Again.... THIS IS MY BLOG! Don't read if you think it's not your cup of tea.

10k

I will surely be very MAD....

If my trip to Shanghai was cancelled due to my passport went missing due to the tour guide being so damn helpful filling up the forms for a foreign worker, a couple or more when he was supposed to take care of us the tour members. By the time he filled up two and could not continue to third, it was already too late. Passport already kena sapu. The whole group of 35 could not fly. Sayang...Long raya holiday, leaves already applied, losing so much time and energy. So unforgivable uh. That airport camera somemore could not trace the thieves coz angle punya pasal. Even if they managed to catch, so what, the trip was no longer possible to proceed.

BUT then, I will not be MAD anymore.......

IF each of us (the victims) were given RM10k. I do not mind to lose this trip. I do not mind going to apply for a new passport again. With RM10k, I can go to Shanghai during other non-peak seasons with lower rate RM2500 + Italy RM6000; or Taiwan RM2000 + Bangkok RM1500 + East Coast USA RM5000; or Tibet RM5000 / Silk Road RM5000 + ............. (Wahlau! siao liao me when think of this!:)

I salute the taukeh for being so generous and well-versed with winning 'business' strategy. Y, this is exactly like what you mentioned last time, one cable car dropped and the whole cable line's passengers were compensated with RM2k each.

Tell me, if they compensate you with RM10k, will you still be mad?!

冬菇发法 (huat hiao kor)

All-year-long mushrooms ready made-to-eat!

A modified method from the HK NextMagazine双如谈食 written by 黄双如. Whatever Shuang Ru taught you one were all very high standard type, using all the super high class ingredients, all the super ho liao tools and super tedious methods. She is so par pai until she purposely opened a grocery shop at HK Zhong Wan which imports and sells only SUPER high class ingredients. So far of all the issues I read, I only found this one 'useful' to me. Back from 2001 one.:)

What she taught : Use the super high class mushrooms, Japan breed but grown in China.
What I did : China one. See pic below.

What she taught : Soak the mushrooms for 48 hours. Change water every day and night.
What I did : Soak for 24 hrs. Change water once / twice (up to you).

After-24-hours look. Cut away the stems.

What she taught : Use tai bai fen (太白粉) to rub clean the mushroom bodies.

What I did : No need.

What she taught : Put into stainless steel pot, add in France made Rougie Goose Oil (鹅油) 1 tablespoon, add water 4-6 bowls (cover up the mushrooms as standard) and cook with low heat for 7-8 hours.

What I did : Put into slow cooker, add in mua eu (麻油) 1 tablespoon, add water 4-5 bowls (cover up the mushrooms as standrd), cook with high heat till boiled then change to low heat for 7-8 hours. I also put in the stems :)

What she taught : Let the whole thing turn cool. Segregate and pack the mushrooms (together with the soup) into different small bags and store in the freezer compartment.

What I did : same.

So this is how they look like after frozen.

Therfore you can take out anytime, reheat or add any other flavours to fry and etc as and when you wish/need.

Old ginger spice

Wah! This old dentist really good lah! No wonder my breakfast gang cha bor are his supporters lah. He really got 'kang hu'! :) Unlike those clinics at Sri Mutiara or etc at Bayan Baru area one, they either made your gum bleed, swollen or made your teeth ended up very 'siap' and got to eat 'medicine' somemore for just a plain 'wash teeth'. :(

I very seldom go to dental clinis for I have never had any decay teeth before. Up till now still the same. I still remember how the dentist at Batu Lanchang asked me to leave after checking my teeth. That was during form 6 if not mistaken. He checked then said," Why you come to see me?" I told him I wanted to 'wash' my teeth coz I heard my friend said by doing so the teeth can become 'whitish'. He laughed and said," You don't need to wash anything coz you got no problems at all. Yours is genetically this kind of colour, white doesn't mean healthy."

I only started to visit dental clinics since I started working. This is my third time so far. First and second time paid by company. Third time - FOC also hmm hei hon :). Yesterday purposely went to this Siak Dental Surgery @ Bayan Lepas - highly recommended by breakfast gang one. Eventhough I have to fork out RM60 myself, I am willing to coz he is so damn good! :) You totally felt nothing.

姜是老的辣! (Old ginger spice!) *big grin*

Siak Dental Surgery (04-6430796) @ Jalan Raya, Bayan Lepas (opp. Southern Bank / Post office).

***********************
The last time I felt like shopping for clothes was in Mac. The urge came again, after half a year, in Oct - here and here . Perhaps the 'mission' can be resumed during this raya 10-day-off ! Hah! :)

Gone my Italy

Phew~~~~~! 'Low tide' lah me coz the Italy trip was confirmed to be cancelled already. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

I was so damn heng fun leh when I happened to know that Lna's family will be going in late Nov and I am lucky that I can join one leg (!). It's so difficult to have kaki going to Italy one leh. And this time the chance comes so definitely I must not let go liao lah. Mana tau.......Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! The previous BKK trip was off, and now this Italy trip also dead. How come like that one har?! *bite bite bite my arm*

Be strong

So many things happened.
So little effort we could offer.
So unpredictable the next step could be.
So little time for us to complete.

Gals! What doesn't kill you make you stronger.

Zhao toilet

Yadda! I've successfully sold another used golf set yesterday. Anyone of you wanna sell your used stuffs boh? *wink wink*

I started to consume this today. My first time on such colon irrigation thingy. Luckily toilets are easily accessible lah in the company. Ha! Many times I ran for toilet loh - all the gas plus all the *Peeeeeeeeeeaaak (!), Breeeeaaaaaaaaaak(!), Syyyhhhhhhhhhh(!)*. :p

OMG!

LKW trip 16~18 Sept 06 . This was my family's first time to LKW.

This was the sickening ferry we took. Three hours journey. Almost 2/3 of the passengers vomitted. My mum was the champion out of all. I vomitted 3 mouthfuls of what I ate in the morning, sit chai beh tahan the surrouding ppl all "orgh!! orgh!! orgh!! .......... non stop. OMG!

We stayed at the Langkasuka Beach Resort. It was 1/2 hour journey away from town, located very near to airport. The road leading to this airport/hotel got no street lamps one at night and the whole stretch of road was under 'korek-korek lubang-lubang' condition. Very sao kar (羞家) to foreign tourists loh. OMG!

The telaga harbour park. Wdy, Cean and I brought my niece out for a short ronda around the north west / north region. Boh hoo hae pun hoe (没虾鱼也好), this was the first look-like-worth-stopping-by spot after driving for ~20 min. OMG! Very mian kiang (勉强) 'spot' leh.

Oriental village where the cable car station is located. OMG! Tell me, this village oo hae mik mee kia ho kua first (有啥好看的)?

Black sand beach - OMG! or sua chit pia tik ei peng, oo hae mik teit peit (有啥特别)? Tanjung Rhu beach - I also yeng chao (应酬) loh since ppl wanted to snap photo. :) Lang square - OMG! Come on! Very miang kiang (勉强) leh.

Four Season Resort. We were told to pay a visit to this resort wor coz heard very 'keng chao' (劲超) one wor. The entrance itself already hou kwai zhan hum (好鬼震撼) ah! No chance to snap, sorry.

Wah!
Wah Wah!

Wah Wah Wah!

I believe you ppl are very familiar with this view (bottom) already right?! Neh, always appearing in magazines one.

There was wedding reception near the beach. Wah! I saw the HK artist 张桑悦 (the lady wearing in pink) attending also leh. She was sent by the golf coach and drove past us. She looked very normal aje leh in real person.

No wonder MAS sit tai pun lah investing in such luxurious hotel. You got to fork out at least RM2000 to stay here.

Cable car. 15 min up per way. *at least this was 'something' although not very worthy*

Hotel beach (day vs night). The pool side hawker 'fair' got 3 stalls only as 'pameran' and got no customers for all night long. The beach grill bar got one stall with a few pcs of grill kae yae displayed. Got only one couple for the whole night long. The teppanyaki restaurant also got only 1 couple for the whole night long. Har?! 惨淡经营! Kesian....

Underwater world. *at least this was something lah worth visiting* But boh pee also RM28/=. The 3D show - I saw the foreign tourists shaking their heads in dismay after this show finished. Mou ngan tai loh.

The rest of the places I totally boh gian snap photos liao lah. Too damn disappointed liao.

Going back - the ferry stopped twice in the middle of the sea, repair don't know what, made us subject to goyang- goyang like that. OMG!

So sucks.

Tell you what! The K*n*ngan Holidays cho seng li boh lao sit (做生意不老实). Tell you this no problem that problem whatever thing also tak apa, can, boleh... and ended up you go there totally 180 different story. Forget it!

Due to mum 呕到不似人形, so I got to lar lar lum rush to hotel upon arrival and ended up having lunch at hotel. Fried rice RM13. Waited for nearly 40 min to serve.

First night don't know where to find food. Cin cai take one stall and order liao. Cannot afford to drag any more due to the drive taken to town was too long and somemore 'or or arm arm' (黑黑暗暗) one. (~RM35)

This was another si peh qiu chuak one! Going straight down the road from our hotel ~10 min drive one (heading to underwater world). Guess the price lah! (RM53!)

At Kuah one. This is a reasonable economic zhu char stall.

I dare not buy many things as it's not convenient to carry tua pao sei pao with kid along.

And you guess what?! I will not go to LKW again in my life time coz for me it's so damn sucks.

tembak & kena

After coming out from the Ding Tai Feng, drove down the turn towards the roundabout, the policemen waved at my car and stopped me by the roadside.
"Ei, lu chao shu (over speed) hor?" my mum asked.
"I don't think so lah." (I was chatting with the kid therefore I drove in the inner lane - for me, it meant 'slow' lah.)
I stopped at the side, sandwitched my car in between the two cars which were stopped earlier. There were three policemen.
I wound down my window,"Yes?" when one policeman came to me.
"Cik, tunjuk IC please."
I unzipped my bag and took out my IC.
"Oops, sorry, driving license too hor?" I realized and took back, showing him the driving license also.
"licenses hidup?"
I grabbed back again and took out the 'license hidup".
Now he got all what he needed.
"Cik, kenapa pakai handphone cik?"
"Tak da lah, gua mana ada pakai handphone?"
"Depa cakap you pakai handphone, cik."
"Aiyoh, mana ada leh, nah you sendiri pun nampak lah I tadi baru buka bag aje nak ambil keluar IC, handphone dalam bag sini leh ."
"Kami tak pakai handphone lah encik." *innocent look*
"Ok lah." He signalled me to go.
"Terima kasih ya."
Haiyoh, yao mou kao chor ah? Simply 'wat' ngor for using handphone.
Can you see how they jalan tugas huh? They just stopped cars randomly without any proofs using 'tembak & kena' method. If you were unlucky enough, then you know lah har.

This was not the first time. I knew the 'trick'. If I did not do anything wrong, lei lor ngor mou fu.

Bedroom Deco

Last post of deco design was here.

These bedroom deco pics were taken from fwd mail. I like deco #6 and deco#9. Which one is your favourite uh?
