And also to Jas from Singapore for wishing me publicly in MSN. haha. [ I'm surprised you remembered my bday. haha ]

Special thanks to ~

Pei Lynn & Sheryln for this =D


and to Jyn | Marianne | Teng | Joseph for this =D


And to Marcus and Sze Vien, I wanna thank you both for celebrating for me and getting me two awesome shirts. haha. But one of it is slightly bigger. =D. No worries. I still like it. [I'll change the size cos the receipt was inside the plastic bag. wahaha ]

Anyway, the day before my bday, which was on Sunday, they planned to surprise me by bringing me to a place. They insisted of picking me up from my place. At first, I was told that we were heading to Pyramid. Then I overheard Yap talking to Marcus bout Damansara. haha. I knew what they were planning. And I was not mistaken, we were going to the place where everyone is talking about and here we ARE, Niu Ze Xui @ Ara Damansara. haha. [ we've been planning to come here a week ago ]

Too bad we had to go in the noon cos I have plans during the night. Sorry guys. =(
There weren't many shops opened during the noon and less people too. [ it was kinda warm there ] So definitely the best is to go there during the night cos they'll on all the lightings and etc creating a wonderful scene. Our main plan was actually to dine at FullHouse and we did. We had our lunch there. Thank god it was not full house. And I was told I can order whatever I want regardless of the price [ I'm not that evil though ] cos the both of them are treating me for the meal. So nice of them. aww~~haha.
We had to use handphones to take pictures cos we have forgotten to bring cameras and the use of phones made us felt lazy to take pictures. But we did took but not many. =)
So, let the pictures do some talking. haha.




Food was good, not extraordinary. The mushroom soup was awesome anyway. The best time to enjoy the set lunches are from 12pm-4pm and they offer affordable prices for the sets. they have only 3-4 sets though. I recommend Pan-Sear Chicken Chop and Fish & Chips for first timers. Though they looked small in portion, it can be quite filling. The ala-carte food therefore are slightly expensive. They served mostly western fusion and they have local delicacies like Nasi Lemak.
I love the decorations [ it's all white ]and the environments there. I guess the concept of the shop is based on the Korean drama Fullhouse. haha. It was quite relaxing and cooling [ we sat right under the fan. haha ].

After lunch, we headed to Pyramid for movie. As usual, it's Sunday and it was packed and most of the movies we wanted to watch were fulled. And so , we picked Role Model.

AU REVOIR SARAH &

HAPPY VALENTINES!

The day has arrived. My so-called wife, Sarah Loy [ I have a mistress too. =P. haha ] is leaving for Australia today. And it's on Valentines. Wrong timing and place for a farewell cos it's Valentines and we had to celebrate the special day with her at the airport. T__T

The three of us, [ Marcus, SzeVien and Me ] met up in Subang first before heading to KLIA. We took at least an hour to reach KLIA and we had to wait for the queue entering the parking bays. [ Marcus had to go to the toilet A.S.A.P but the long queue was bothering. haha ] Finally, we managed to meet Sarah at McD and we took our last pictures together before she leaves *sad*
Her family, extended family and the 3 of us were there to send her off and she hugged all of us before she entered the departure terminals. [ she didn't cry meh? lol. ] We are gonna MISS you so much Sarah.



So next, where to celebrate our Valentines dinner? The 3 of us were thinking where to eat while walking back to the car. And we only made our final decision on the highway. We are heading to Taishi for Japanese food! Knowing it's Valentines, we should have always book first but this time we did not cos we only decided the place last minute. haha. But thank god, we had to just wait for 10-15 minutes to get our seats. *phew*








Overall, food was good [ my chicken sukiyaki was kinda dry, need more sauce though ]and the best thing was price is affordable. Service was good too. The interior may look normal and simple but least they look like a Japanese Restaurant. haha. A place to try. It is located at USJ 9 behind CIMB bank. For further enquiries, you can contact them at 03-80259603.

p/s- This is the second year I'm celebrating Valentines with Marcus with and without our partners. haha. lol.

CNY Part II [ 6th Feb 09 ]

A Trip for Sarah

We [ Marcus, Ryan, SzeVien & I ] had planned a 2 days-one night in Genting for Sarah as she's leaving for Aussie Land for a year to further her studies the next week. * my 3rd time in Genting in 2 months =.= *

Anyway, the week before the trip, they came over to my place for CNY gathering after dinner. We gambled and played drinking games and ended up I got slightly drunk. The best thing of it, I puked everything I ate [ peanuts, chips & cookies ] and drank [famous grouse and Bacardi apple ] that night. I was the one who always kena by them to drink and all I know was Ryan kept refilling my cup with Bacardi. And the whole toilet smells like apple. haha. lol.



Back to the trip.
I booked a room in Chin Swee Temple a.k.a Pagoda cos it's so cheap, RM70 per night for a room with a single bed and queen bed. And the place is quiet, nice and peaceful. The cons of the hotel rooms are no tv's and the size of the rooms are exactly the size of First World Hotel's normal rooms, which is freaking small. Screw it-lar, all we wanted was just a place to play and sleep.
Ain't gonna talk so much bout the journey. All we did was Sushi King, walking around in the cold breezy condition [ it was damn cold and the road couldn't be seen clearly with the thick mist ], Starbucks, and we did alot cam whoring and took alot of pictures too. haha. Back to the room, we played thumb master, charades, "007 Bang" and "Truth or Dare". I think everyone got a little tipsy. Haha. Yea. We had alcohol. Chivas, Jas and Corona beers. And I think we were the noisiest and loudest among all the rooms. Haha. Throughout the night, it was a unstoppable laughter for us. wahaha.


Well, let the pictures do the rest. We took more than 200 pictures though. Haha. But half of them are P&C. =P. So here are some of the approved pictures.







Eventhough it was just 2 days 1 night, we had a memorable trip. Cos we had lots of craziness and fun. haha.

A very late post =)

CHINESE NEW YEAR 09

First of all , Happy 'Niu' Year and Gong Xi Fa Chai to those who celebrate CNY .

This year's eve dinner was at my eldest uncle's place as he and his family has moved in to a new condominium recently .
And I guess I have an ill luck this year-lar . The day before eve , I fell sick , having fever and cold [ blame the late night sleeps =) ]
No pictures taken during the dinner though . Forgotten bout it . haha

First day of CNY , as the yearly routine , the Tan family will gather together in the morning [ to watch lion dance perform ] at my grandaunt's bungalow a.k.a temple in PJ . Later in the noon , we will all go back to my house for steamboat lunch and during the night we ll have another round of steamboat for dinner . And our yearly routine , gambling and drinking sessions begin! haha




On the second day , my family and some of my extended family went for a 3 days 2 nights holiday in Genting for the sake of the enjoying the cold breeze air during CNY . This was my 2nd time in 2 months and its gonna be a 3rd one with my friends on the following week . =.=
Not many pictures taken cos I had a bad stomachache for 3 consecutive days ! T__T [must be the oysters ] *bombarded the toilet bowl for 2 days * T__T
And the saddest thing is I lost rm100 in less than an hour in the casino during my debut . But thinking of it , I got through the police without any suspicion twice at the main casino but my two cousins , both 18 were unlucky . They were asked for IC and got kicked out . lol . So indeed , I was lucky =) A year to go to be legal !

The rest of the 11 days of CNY were spent visiting and collecting angpows of cos . And eating drinking , and eating , eating and drinking making me turning F.A.T [ Fatty Aaron Tan ] haha

As time passed so fast , 15 days have gone just like that . Good times have always passed quickly . Had so much fun and joy every CNY and I hope this will be repeating every year . *but with more angpows lar =P * Why-lar CNY has only 15 days ? How good if it last for a month . More angpows! haha . Well , face the reality , a year to go for another wonderful CNY .
