Happy New Year 2009

2009-01-02T17:50:00.003+08:00

2009 liao....
We had a wonderful new year celebration at Yan House in year 2007/8.

This year 2008/9. We do not hv tht much food/drink as like last.
We do not hv as much ppl as like last.
We have to fireworks to watch as like last.

But we did enjoy ourselves.
Venue: Chee Kong's House
Attendance: Voon Chean, Chee Kong, Shong Chee, Wai Yan, Ee Jet, Jeanie, Wie Siong, Elaine, Pei Lu & Chee Kong Father :p

When I arrived at Kong house (late, cause dinner with 2nd school mate), most of them were there playing NaaMii liao.

Therefore, we 'open' another table to play MahJong.

Since we're not familiar with MahJong, Kong invited his father to play with us and mean while teach us.
(actually, i can feel tht uncle was waitted very long to play liao :p)

When the time almost reached midnight/0:00/new year.
Siong was kept on reminding everyone, 15minutes lo... 10 minutes lo.... 4minutes lo... bababla..
but everybody were so focusing on their mahjong or naamii.
We didn't really count down,but just after finished the game then only we went to watch the fireworks on TV (showing taiwan fireworks) and took photos.

Here Yan, Siong and Elaine represent all of us to wishes everybody.....
Happy New Year 2009 !!!!! (hope u all win more more more $ from mah jong or naa mii)

Happy Birthday to Mr. Voon Chean, Yap.

Wish you have a great celebration and a wonderful trip in Hanoi, Vietnam!

Paris: "Paging for Mr. Yap... Does anyone knows where he is now?

Please tell him to claim his birthday kisses from me when you see him.
I'll be staying @ K.L Hilton Hotel, Level 20, Room 368.
Oh dear, he's sooo sexy, I wonder if he's good...hmm."

Be Prepared... Bradars.

2008-09-09T01:19:00.008+08:00

Found this set of photo captured during my friend's wedding day. Hopefully Jet's bradars won't get this kind of 'freaking Bin Tai treatment'. If they really do that, we're going to charge you 'Item' by 'Item'. Good luck bradars, and be prepared!

Good bradars have to wear ladies undie, yer~

Groom has to wear the undie as well.
Ok, fair la.

No, no, no... Not only just undie.
It's undie with a banana hanging in front!
Freaking Bin Tai!!

What are they going to do next?
You'll get the answer on 14 Sept 08.
So, stay tune!

Freaking wai, super GAY! Both bradars have to
share the banana without hands holding it.

This is really suffering. Both ears clipped with
cloth hanger Buaya clips. Rubber band wore
on his forehead, and it's in position ready to
snap on his head, OUCH~

P/S: I wonder if Kin Loong is around that day, what would they ask him to wear? Perhaps a women's bra top? Ha Ha Ha...G cup??

OMG! Bradars wearing woman's bra top!

A day I kacau Kong.

2008-06-06T16:08:00.002+08:00

Again my PDA phone crash ~~~~
I fed up till skipping my training (the trainer suck, wasting my time), and head towards lowyat plaza, to send my PDA to PDA Expert for flash of new ROM.
When I arrived the PDA Expert store, the PDA Expertise - Kenny told me that the ROM that currently in my PDA is having this problem.
Where the Windows Mobile 2006 will fail to bootup when the PDA is in low battery.

Therefore, I request to flash with a new ROM.
He told me that will required 1 day to get this done, but I cant live without phone for more than 3 hours.
So, I decided to just perform a hard reset and install app. myself again.

Since, I'm LowYat Plaza at 3pm. Doesn't feel like going back to office nor heading home so early.
Therefore, I called up CheeKong and ask him, it's convenience that I goto his service office and use the power supply and internet connection.
I need that to download software and repaid my PDA.
Kong say, 'OK'.

Kong spend few minutes accompany and chit chat with me.
Then he start working with his team mate.

I was on the sofa repairing my PDA (when i took all this photo, my PDA is already up and running liao, just not all necessary s/w installed).

Kong Service Office/Hotel Room has a nice view to sg wang street.

Suddenly I feel like... hey... DF0042 blog as been a while to activities liao..
SO i decided to took some photos and write blog on it 1st. ~~~~
I slept on the bed ...

I took bath ....

I oh shit ~~~~

In the end... Kong complain me kacau him and his team liao....
kick me out to the door...

Broke Back Kuantan 断背丹

2008-05-05T17:44:00.012+08:00

It has been already 10 years since Chee and Chun last seen each other.

All these while, they've been living in great pain everyday trying to deny
the truth - the relationship that has crossed the brotherhood between
them. Today, they do not want to lie to themselves anymore, they do
not want to live in a life that are not belongs to them. So, they
decided to meet each other at the Cherating Beach at Kuantan....
(What a good cover up)

Looking into each other eyes, their blood is warming and their heart
is beating fast. They running into each other with tears of joy and
happiness......

- Holding tight -

- Touch with gentle -

- Aaaarggghhhhh ! -

The love between them is deeper than the sea and wider than the
sky, they've finally found each other, and live.....

Happily ever after ~

Kong: O.K, I'll give you a call when I arrive.

Our well known Charming Kong aka 泰仔, was carrying the
toilet roll all the way from old wings to new wings.

Talk Cock 1:

We went to Padini, there were an old junk Mini Minor parked as a display unit.

Kong: Yan, why don't you park the Mini minor at your house?
Yan: Coz I don't have space to accommodate this car.

Kong: Ya wor, you already got so many cars parked in your house. Told you to buy a bigger 1 lar...
Yan: Aiyo.., My house consider very big liao... Just got lost 7 times last week only...

He even stop down and post sissy look to let

Kong: Eh.. you use this brand also ar? * pointing at the toilet roll
Yan: Yes ar... do you?

Kong: How come 1? * stupid question
Yan: We stay so near, just next door only ma...* totally not related to the topic and started to talk cock.

Kong: That does not consider near la... you have to travel 20 mins to reach my house la..

(5 seconds later)

Kong: Why buy so many toilet paper?
Yan: My house so big, have to la... but you know, there are too many toilets in my house and the distance are very far. I have to take motorcycle to the nearest toilet. More over I have no time to check it 1 by 1.

Kong: Ya wor... why not hire 20 maids to help you check on the toilet?
Yan: You tough I stay in factory ar? * getting back to normal

Kong: "Damn, leng luiz walk passed me and

Talk Cock 3:

While waiting at the paying counter.

Kong: Hey, when are we going to continue our game? * Chinese chess
Yan: After this come to my house lo... * think of nothing, just simply answer to entertain him only
Kong: Sure your house got the chess set? Do you have soft drinks at your house? Do you have 50 cents soft drinks at your house?

Yan: Later we drop by Chun's office and get the cans from him.Better don't la, he's busy this whole week.

Yan: BTW, have to find the chess set 1st, don't know where i chucked it.
Kong: In that case, come my house la.. I got few sets in all kind of sizes.. got this size.. this la.. that la.. bla.. bla.. bla..

Yan: Why not go to your house and collect the chess set then come to my house leh, my house got soft drinks wor ?
Kong: Why not go your house collect the drinks then come to my house play chess?

Can't continue anymore, so decided to end hilarious conversation.

Do I look like Rambo? Right hand carrying a Bazooka
and left hand carrying a plastic bag of grenades.

The Coxford Singlish Dictionary:

Talk Cock - A term meaning either to talk nonsense or engage in idle banter.

When Macho becomes Sissy!

2008-02-02T20:43:00.001+08:00

Who has such power that could make someone having such huge transformation?!

Despite giving an arrogant face with the "international sign", Yanny couldn't hide his gentle sissy side while carrying the IKEA "auntie" bag...

IKEA of course!

KNK Japanese/Korean BBQ Restaurant

2008-01-19T23:00:00.000+08:00

The DF0042 gang loves to eat and try out new food.
Today, for no reason, we decided to gather and had a dinner together.
Initially it was planned to go to the Paris restaurant @ PJ SS2. However, some felt that it was just too boring to eat there, so one of the DF0042 member Ee Jet had a better suggestion....

So here we're heading to Sri Hartamas, looking for the Japanese BBQ restaurant that nominated by Ee Jet.

The KNK (Kannichikan Yakiniku) Restaurant @ Sri Hartamas

It's operating ~! Let's go in ~

Once we stepped inside, we're greeted by the staff with the familiar Japanese word, "Irrashaimase ~"
This place must be quite popular among the Japanese living in KL, because 90% of the customer here are the REAL Japanese ! While we walking to our seats, we can hear them chatting in Japanese language.

Inside the restaurant, a bit smokey because everyone is doing the Yakiniku (Japanese grilled meat).

Ee Jet has called to reserve a table for the gang earlier, so we have been placed to sit at the platform type seats, and we have to take off our shoes to put our leg in. They also put some Croc shoes there in case we need to walk around in the shop.

A corner of the shop, we're sitting on this platform type seats :)

Jet and Jeanie

Yan & Jet

Chun & Chean

Kong & ......his gf (shit...Kong! what's your gf name ar ?)

Enough story !! Everbody is hungry already, lets start order lar !

The appetizer Kimchi & Japanese ice tea...

While waiting for the food to come, we've been given some appetizer and Japanese ice tea in one big bottle. The ice tea is a bit different than the Ocha we used to have in other Jap restaurants, it has very light coffee taste in it.

We've ordered two big sets which are mainly beef. Additional to that, we've also ordered some lamb & chicken. Soon, the raw food has arrived and they put a stove with burning coals into the hole in the middle of the table, where we will do the cooking ourselves on it ~

Yummy, very tender beef slices :D

The beef are cut into thin slices, and look very fresh. Put it on the grill for a few minutes, and Voila ! Its done and ready to filling up your taste bud ! They are so tender and juicy, and the special source they used to mix with the beef is really tasty and sweet.
There are something new and special to us which most of us have never tested before. It's the ox tongue !! We've tried so many parts from the cows: sirloin, lung, liver, intestines and oxtail, even to their eyes (mata kerbau), but this is the first time most of us see & eat the ox tongue ! It looks so clean and pink in color and doesn't look like your tongue at all which has many whitish buds on it.

The ox tongue vs Jet's tongue !

Wonder what is the feeling da-k-lun with ox tongue ? It has the QQ feeling when you bite on it, and a little bit like ham. I think its a lot better than your partner's tongue !

Cook it yourself is always fun ! See nobody touch the appetizer at all...

Jet's saliva can't stop leaking...

Soooo Delicious, Yummilicious, Sweetilicious, Juicilicious ~

Two late comers: Ah Lee & Yvonne, a couple who don't eat beef !

The staff gives us a new grill :)

Look at the fire !!

Kong is showing you how nice is the food ~

Chean got bored while waiting for the meat become cooked.

We certainly eating too fast, unlike the Japanese who really know how to enjoy the food. We found that we are still far from enough after we've finished the sets we ordered, so we ordered few plates of chicken and lamb. Then the watermelon comes as dessert when we asked for the bill.

The dessert - sweet & juicy watermelon !

Ee Jet can't describe his feeling in words, so he dance it out...

We're really satisfied with the food. The services are good and has to be good as well because most of the customer are Japanese there. Although the bill has came with a hopping price at around RM450++, but its reasonable for what we have to pay for the cows we killed, the tongues we cutted and the meats we eaten. It is inhumanity though....

Try it out if you're looking for Japanese Yakiniku restaurant, it can't be wrong if the Japanese also go there ! Strictly not for vegetarian !!

Pumpkin Porridge Steamboat

2007-08-17T18:42:00.001+08:00

Porridge steamboat may not be a new thing already nowadays, as most of us have already tasted the well-known porridge steamboat from Tian Yuan (田园) for more than once. Frankly to say, I'm kinda sien already eating their porridge steamboat....

So, how about Pumpkin Porridge Steamboat ?

We first heard of it from Kin Loong's mouth when the last time we had our porridge steamboat dinner at Tian Yuan. It sounds interesting and I could imagine that it should taste like the pumpkin soup I had before, sweet and tasty.

Thanks to Chunny's strong desire on nice food, he invited us to try out the Pumpkin Steamboat together on Monday's night. So Chunny, Kongny, Karen, Loongny including myself headed to the restaurant named Lin Yuan Steamboat Kitchen (淋园火锅小馆) located in Cheras Queen's Park.

Lin Yuan Steamboat Kitchen (淋园火锅小馆)

At first, we ordered three person sets, an additional plate of beef slices and 'sauce burst‘ meat ball (酱爆肉丸).

The raw food looks fresh and clean ~

What's the steamboat soup ? Of course Pumpkin Porridge lor !!

We also ordered a side dish - Nam Yue Spare Ribs 南乳排骨. Taste good, but I preferred Tian Yuan's.

The Nam Yue spare rib is hot and tasty, look at Chunny's hungry face

They started putting the food into the Pumpkin porridge, while I was busy taking photos.

I remembered someone said, 'Waiting is the most painful thing'. Yes it always is.

Whoa! It's cooked ! Let's start eating ~

Kong just couldn't stop drooling while looking at the food.

After we've finished the food inside the pot, we still have two eggs left. As usual, we did the 'Eggs flower 蛋花' trick again, performed by Chef Ho.

Look at his lansee face, like nobody in this world can break the egg as good as him....

Look at his cheeky sepet eyes, he must be thinking that he looks cool using spoon to stir while others use folk....

Look at his lansee face again ! Wie Siong, he is challenging you to see who makes the better egg flower (蛋花) lah !!

Kong, 'Chow hai, fai lan dit lar !'

(mother fucker, faster lar !)

The Pumpkin porridge soup is just so nice especially after added the eggs. It's so sweet and tasty until we finished all the pumpkin porridge.

The Aftermath

Chun was shocked when he found out that his spare tyre rim has increased from 16" to 18".

The bill arrived at RM131.99. I think it's quite reasonable at around RM26 per pax, as we had ordered somemore additional food.

The bill, 1 cent for the tips so it's RM132 in total :p

The only girl that night, Karen on the left

Overall, I'm very satisfied with their food and services. The food is fresh and clean, and the Pumpkin Porridge soup is just nice, not too sweet. The service was very good as well because from time to time the staff will come and check on your table, add porridge and tea for you when necessarily, probably because it's not that crowded that night. Next time if I'm to go for porridge steamboat, for sure I will choose this Pumpkin Porridge steamboat again, until I've bored at it or something new has come out.

Queen's Park, Cheras

Lin Yuan Steamboat Kitchen is located at Cheras Queen's Park, along Peel Road and opposite Cheras Carrefour. Parking inside Queen's Park only RM1, and it has many factory outlet shops like MNG, Esprit, Giordano, etc and it even has Starbucks and Sushi King, definitely a place to visit.

Backpack gallore

2007-06-09T23:46:00.000+08:00

As some of you know, Chean, Yanny and me are planning to go KK this 19th of June, and all of us lack of a proper backpack. We have been checking around shopping malls, specialized shops, and other places since last weekend. And thanks to that Chean and Jet research spirit, they have found a shop that is always pop up among those backpackers discussion, in forums. Kedai Bag Yoon Hin (Yoon Hin Bag Store in english), at Pertama Complex. With a quote of "Wholesales of All Kind of Bags", we decided to go there and check it out.

Yoon Hin Bag Store. From left to right, Jeannie, Jet, Chean and Yanny (We took this after we got all our stuffs)

At first we only knew there were a shop in Pertama Complex, with shop lot address of G66, and the boss is a lady named Madam Sia, and there are tons of all sort Deuter bags selling there, with the cheapest price you can find so far in KL.

Bags and more bags!

"Holy Shit, so many bags! I dunno what I wanna get!"

Chean and Jet busy checking out the bags.

We only realized the shop name when we finally found it. Madam Sia is indeed a friendly lady, we were asking all sort of questions, playing, wearing, checking all the Deuter bags we were interested there, in the narrow and crowded shop.

Me and Chean quickly laid our hands on a Deuter bag known as Hokus Pokus upon arriving the shop. It is a hip pouch that can be converted into a near 20 liter daypack, the idea is so cool and we just can't resist the temptation to get one.

After lots of trying, testing, playings, checkings, considerations, and all other hassles you can think of, finally they bought the backpacks of their choice.

Ahhh... so tired both mentally and physically.

Chean got his Deuter Air Contact 45+10 Liter backpack, plus the Hokus Pokus.
Yanny finally own his first Deuter, the Deuter Futura 42 AC.
Got a Hokus Pokus too for me.
While Jet, has narrow down his choices to only the Deuter Quantum series and Deuter Traveller series, which he wants to buy for his HK trip on coming November.

Chean with Deuter Futura 42 AC

Check out the 'Quantum 55+10' on me.

"I've found what I want!" Chean with his victory pose.

We tried to attach the Hokus Pokus on Chean's Air Contact 45+10 as a removable daypack just like the Quantum and Traveller series, looks pretty good right?

Everyone got their bags! That's the Hokus Pokus, pouch and daypack mode!

P/S: Madam Sia even offered to help us getting other stuffs like sneakers, sport wears at the next store and other stores she knows, at a discount of 20%! Wow, what a wonderful nice lady! But bare in mind that Madam Sia only accept cash for her bags, so load your wallet with dough before you pay her a visit!

Few days later.....

Jet and Jeanie went back to find Madam Sia and bought the Deuter AirContact Pro 60+15L. It's a new model just stocked in by Madam Sia, it's not even there yet when we visited few days ago. Jet couldn't wait to share this with Chean, he said Madam Sia even agreed to change Chean's bag to another if he is not happy with it. The cheapskate Chean is seriously fluctuate by that. The day itself, the sohai greedy Chean left office earlier and went to top up his bag to AirContact Pro 50+15L, which is bigger, prettier, more features and much more fucking expensive ! - added by the Sohai Chean.

Swimming day...

2007-06-05T16:13:00.000+08:00

Gunung Nuang - Conquered!

2007-05-14T23:50:00.000+08:00

We finally made it, reaching the summit of Gunung Nuang, on Saturday, 12th of May 2007, around 2pm.

We have made it!

It was truly a memorable day, not only because now we can proudly tell everyone, we have been there, done that (OK OK, big deal, many people did that numerous time, and more even do it like twice a month, nevertheless, it was really an achievement for amateur like us), the unbearable test on our mental and physic, tormenting deep into each of them, and pushed our determination to its limit, it was the hardest thing we have done so far! And not to mention we have also made the headlines!

25 people, from our usual guy group of Chun, Yan, Chean, Yen Han, and added up the girls and their friends, with 9 more Chean's motorolan colleagues, started the long and crazy trekking journey at 7am, and for everyone to safely came back at the starting point, it was at an unbelievable time of 230am! No, there's no typo error, it's really AM we are talking about here! A total of almost 20 freaking hours of journey, which around 15 hours of trekking if excluded resting! Catch the whole story here.

The last few of us to arrive summit was around 2pm, almost 7 hours taken. At this point, you can see we were really out of schedule, night trekking was inevitable, if consider we need 7 hours more to go down. Although some of us did bring torch lights, but it was unquestionable lack of equipment for night trekking, thus, making the journey incredible harder and longer. Guess what, the most powerful torch light we have was not even a torch light, it was the camera LED of a Sony Ericsson K700i mobile phone! Really ironic.

Separated into 3 groups, we were only able to reach the starting point, the registration area, for the first group, at 930pm, second group at 11pm and the last, 230am. The big gap between the last group was due to the misunderstanding incident. But everyone arrived safe and sound, that's most important.

And why an estimated 8-10 hours trekking and hiking took us that much longer to finish? Almost 6 hours over schedule, if consider only the trekking time. Some of the reasons I can think of:

1) The group was too large.
We were jamming each other at the beginning, where everyone waiting in queue to climb up those steep and hard slopes. For every obstacle like this, it took us almost 20 minutes to get everyone up and going. And there were dozens of them along the journey!

2) Too relax at the beginning.
Everyone started at a relax pace, we took our sweet time to relax and took photos. We tried not to get our shoes wet when crossing water streams, and that really contribute a lot in our relax factor. Lack of timing sense, sense of crisis also causing us to not aware of our time schedule.

3) Stamina difference and injuries.
Everyone has different stamina, the stronger one has to wait for the weaker one. And the weaker your stamina, the most likely you will get injured. Adding the factor of bad hiking equipment, especially shoes, the weaker one becomes weaker. I can assure you that because I was one of those injured people that dragging the whole team to slow down!

4) Last but not least, all were amateurs!
No one had experience, that is none of us had reach the summit before, so we can't estimate how hard the journey, how long is needed. We just "heard" it was like this and that, and 8-10 hours need. Probably this is the main factor that causing all of the above! Assumption is the mother of all fucked-ups!

The experience of this Gunung Nuang Expedition really showed us something that beyond our imagination! And the lesson we've learned really unquestionable very valuable for any future activities, planning, and our day to day life. I'm sure all the 25 of us has just made an unforgettable chapter in our life!

06:00pm arrived at the waterfall (team A & C) clean our scars & shoes.

06:30pm team C continue their downhill journey, team A decided to wait for their fellow team mate, and team B already arrived at the base.

07:00pm The sun set and the blue sky rapidly turn darker & daker. Most of us didn't brought our torch light. Decided to use our mobile phone - SE K700 & SE K750i. (Nokia stand a side la...)

08:00pm A member of team A sent a SMS to her family member, saying 'finding our way back'. And that triggered the rescue alarm.

09:30pm team C arrived at the base.

Karen was exhausted & tired. Feels like fainting, pity her.

11:30pm Rescue search team arrived.

12:00am We offered whatever we could & there's nothing we can do/help. So we decided to leave & back to our home.

02:30am At last, team A arrived at the base, and they're on the major newspaper headlines for the next 2 days.

And that’s all for now, folks. Now you can visualize the extreme toughness of 16 long hours Gunung Nuang marathon expedition.

Congratulation to those who made it to the peak! You are the champion!!

Bravo to those who’s the fastest made it to the base! You rock!!

♫ Music plays [ We are the champions - my friends, And well keep on fighting - till the end, We are the champions, We are the champions, No time for losers, cause we are the champions - of the world ]

The "Lost in Gunung Nuang" incident

2007-05-14T22:00:00.001+08:00

- The Incident -
"Twenty-five went hill trekking, nine lost", "Hikers lost during hill trek", "SMS to dad saves 9 lost on mountain", "9 hikers found after lost in jungle for 9 hours".....etc

These are the headlines showing up on different local newspapers today. Some even taken up half of the page to report it alongside with nice photos. However, we found most of the reports on the incident were not accurate. Some claimed that the twenty-five hikers aged between 20-25. Some said they are all working in Motorola and worse, said the hikers lost in jungle for 9 hours ! Thus, we felt that we shall let our friends knew what had actually happened up there and why the nine people who were with us would eventually "lost".

- The Meet Up -
It was around 7pm when the last group met with the Motorolans at waterfall. The place was getting darker and darker. The last group which including Chun and friends led the way from the waterfall and the Motorolans followed behind. They're going down fast, trying to beat the time and reached the dam before the sky was all dark....

- The Break Up -
As night took over completely, Chun and friends reached the dam. They realised the Motorolans were not with them already. Nobody remembered when and how did they broke up, tiredness and home were the only thing in their mind. They did their best by waited for few minutes, sadly they were nowhere to be seen. Chun and team decide to move on.

- The Missing Motorolans -
The Motorolans were still at the camp site, in front of the river and not sure which way to go. They couldn't catch up with Chun's gang. They too waited there for some time, hoping the other team would be back to look for them, but it didn't happen....In this critical moment, they asked for help from the campers and the campers were kind enough to bring them. At the same time, an sms which played an important role in the whole incident, sent out to the girl's father, written "We are still finding our way out". It was around 8pm.

- "They're confirmed lost !" -
9:30pm, second team (Cheanny, Yanny and friends) finally arrived at base. Chean first called up to Chun's gang, and confirmed that they were coming down safely. Around 10:30pm, cars engine brought the exhausted Cheanny and Yanny out of dream. A man with worriment all over his face came out from the car, he is father of one of the Motorolan, asking us about her daughter's situation. He told us she was "lost". Within half an hour, the pondok already flooded with people, including people from the rescuer team. We were in shock and felt it was a little exaggerated. The worried father showed us an sms written "We are still finding our way out", sent by her daughter. Immediately Cheanny called up Chun's gang, and confirmed that the Motorolans were not coming down with them. Chean then tried to call the Motorolans, but just couldn't get through any of them. The father told the rescuer, "They're confirmed lost!"

11:30pm, Chun's gang finally reached base. We said adieu to the worried families there and headed home.

- The Rescue -
The Motorolans were on the right path, walking down step by step extremely slow as one of the girl's knee hurting badly. They reckoned at least another hour to reach the base. Somehow a phone call managed to sneak in through the weak signal, it was the girl's dad ! They realised that the rescuers were already on their way up to look for them. They've been told to stay at where they were. An hour passed, they finally heard the Jeep's engine not far in front.

It was almost 3am when the two Jeeps back to base. Reporters from different papers already standby there. The Motorolans finally came out from the jungle safely.

The rest, is history.....

Yesterday afternoon Me, Chun, Chean and Yan went to Mid Valley to meet up our old friend Marvin after our swimming session.

Although it's holidays but the traffic and packing space is still smooth and available.
Maybe all the KL ppl went back to home town during this long holidays gua...

Yoga

2007-04-29T10:34:00.000+08:00

Wow, you guys are awesome for making this blog a fancy one :-) Nearly forgot how all these htmls, javascript .. tada tada tada .. works .... Hey, why don't we gather the rest of the world of DF0042 for a midnight mamak gathering one day (May perhaps?)

Anyway, just to update myself here, I've just joined "Bikram Yoga" aka "Hot Yoga" which we have to work out 26 postures under a temparature of 40 degrees ... It's like the moment you step in to the room, you'll just sweat like mad as if some screwdrivers has went loose on your hydrant body. Somehow, I had fell in love with Yoga that I always head towards TST for it. A 90 minutes class is a worth it investment to get myself detoxified, feeling more positive and best of all, it helps to distress me. Check this out --> www.bikramyoga.com.hk

Doing the funny flexible postures nearly break me but today I guess I can split my leg apart :-) Worth it right :-)

Finally

Finally I see my arse can enter this DF0042's door to post all my gibberish thoughts :)

We celebrated with Kong for his birthday and farewell to him at Cheras Halo Cafe, as he will be leaving us very soon to start his new chapter working at ShenZhen. It was really an unforgettable booze-up night filled with jokes and laughters, songs and beers. It's hard to describe here, so we'll let the pictures speak the words. Enjoy ~

Vote for your best photo of the day ~

Once again, Happy Birthday to Kong and farewell to you and all your bad/unhappy/unlucky moments for the past. Next year today, we will be celebrating with you again here, mark our words. Until then, we will still reserve an empty place and order a Heineken for you whenever we visit Halo, hahahaha.

All the best bro ~!

Batu Caves Training total failure

2007-04-23T22:20:00.000+08:00

Chean, Lee, Janet, Yen Hoong, Chooi Wai, Sharon And Karen

Went to Batu Caves for some leg training. The girls have been doing it like several weeks now, while us, the guy, just lagging behind. And finally last Sunday, we decided to join the action.

The return of AhLee Balboa! Jet, music please!

As usual, we were late. I wonder why in our gene that we like to be late, which is totally opposite of the girl always late theory.

Lulu and Yun Yun.

When we arrived, it's almost 8am, and the girls already started their second round. Without stretching or warming up, we just head straight to the stairs, 250+ of them, to reach the top.

No matter how tired Chean was, the most important is ying!

First round, it was still OK. Legs a bit sore. Then 2nd round, now it started to get tired, breathe heavily, and more soreness. 3rd round, we even had to stop at the middle to catch our breath, rest our legs... Somehow we managed to get our butt up to the top for the 3rd time, and the girls also reached there, for their 4th round. So while resting, we also took some photos together.

From top of Batu Caves. Facing the light, so kinda dark here...

And that's about it. Only 3 rounds for us guys, while the girls continue theirs, to a goal of total 8 rounds. We were left beaten up, and went back for our breakfast, then everybody back home for a long nap... hahaha, definitely losers!

2 monkeys vs. the Indian lady...

Recorded a video here.

P/S: We are going there again coming Saturday to redeem our failure, everyone is welcome to join us!

The Serene Show

2007-04-21T23:40:00.000+08:00

As usual, we went to Halo Cafe on Friday night.

But tonight a bit different. There used to be some regular Halo cafe singers performing throughout the night, but seems like there's a small intro show for a new local artist, a female singer - Serene. Don't ask me coz I have no idea myself who she was.

After the first song, some intro of herself. It was Yanny who did the photo taking.

The weird thing is, she was wearing a mask! We were absolutely no idea why she did that, perhaps it can create some kind of mystery, and people will start to wonder who she is, and bang, free publicity! Eerr... is what I'm doing now one of them?

You don't really want to expand this photo coz it just too blur to see anything...

Anyway, she sang around 3 songs, 2 of them was soft rock, well, kinda getting our nerves because plucking your bass crazy(or broadcasting them) in that small area is not really a good idea, it tends to get very noisy... And in the contrary, we can't really hear clearly when they started talking and introducing, coz we sat at the furthest, and they spoke too soft...

The closest thing we can get, a poster pasted on the wall...

We certainly wanna know how she looks like, but with that mask of hers, and my crappy phone camera, and lack of guts to take photo closely (which we really don't wish to create any misunderstanding like we are her fans...) It just left us something to ponder...

Hanging out @ Halo Cafe, Cheras - 海螺民歌餐厅

2007-04-20T14:39:00.000+08:00

It's 12:32am in the mid-night, and we (chean, kong, chun & yan) were still hanging out at Halo cafe located at Sedaya University College, Cheras.

It's late now, shop prepare to close, paid the bill and ready to go.
But what is he doing there, who's this guy?

Wait a minute. Where's Chean? Ohh.. It looks like Cheany standing at the casher counter asking some favour or something from a waitress named 'Miko'.

OIC, that's the story. Chean was asking Miko someone's phone number...

You have no idea how hard to get this number, we went there for 3 nights and spent approximately RM240.

On the 1st night, Chean ask Miko for Queeny's number. Miko said the phone list was with her supervisor, and currently her supervisor was not around. She promoissed Chean that she will give get it for him the next time we pay visit to Halo. OK lor, nevermind. I'll be "buck"!

On the 2nd night, Chean ask Mico for the number again. She seems reluctant to give, ans reply with few words - 'I'll give you next time' then quickly walk into the cash counter.

On the 3rd night, Chean ask her again. She has no excuse but give it, she wrote the phone number on a piece of paper and passed it to Chean.

For the full content of the story, kindly ask Chean personally :>

Stay tune, see ya folks!

Visit to police station

2007-04-16T22:17:00.000+08:00

We have paid a visit to the Old Klang road police station, around 830pm Sunday.

Were they being interrogated by the policemen?!

Fortunately the area crime rate still under control, so no one was there when we arrived.

After Yanny told his intention to the policeman at the report counter, the officer made several calls to different stations, which I have no idea what's that about.

It took around 30 minutes to finish the whole police report lodging process, consider fast for our well known snail slow law enforcement service.

Still act cool despite "committed" such a "crime"! Shame on you two!

Ya, the golden question, why were we there? All thanks to that big prawn head Yanny "thought" he lost his credit card, which later found in his pant pocket after he canceled it. To get a replacement, a police report is required, and that's the reason we went there!

Sushi Mania!

2007-04-12T22:48:00.000+08:00

Every year, the famous Japanese restaurant, Sushi King will have a promotion period, where they offer their member to enjoy their conveyor belt sushi for RM2 per plate! And that time of joy has come, starting 9th April to 12th April, every sushi lover (I guess as well as cheap and stingy folks) just went crazy in these 4 days!

For no reason, we went for Sushi King on Saturday, 2 days before the promotion, probably envy, might be dissatisfy, perhaps pride, pushed us to get a bite on those delicious sushi. Yupe, you guess right, no one among us is a Sushi King privilege card member. Duuuhhhh...

So, the first 2 days were crazy days for others, but not us.
How crazy has others gone? Take my colleague for example, he went there for lunch, dinner, 2 days in a row, consuming at least 11 plates each visit!

11th April, which was Yanny's birthday, the urge to get these cheap tasty sushi had made him ventured to the arena of sushi in 1U shopping mall, with 2 of his comrades, me (Chun) and Cheany (Kong was at Macau enjoying his 18 sauna). Thanks to my colleague, who lent me his member card.

First day, thanks to ignorance, we ate lots of those half ring plates (the sample plate on top of left and right stack)

As expected, long queue in front of the Sushi King branch. We waited around 1 hour to get our butt sat in front of the conveyor belt. With no delay, acting like never had sushi before, we grabbed tons of them. "Wah, octopus, jeng!" "Wah, jelly fish!" We were like starving refugee yelling and stuffing them into our stomach. Our all time favorite, the Unagi Sushi! Plates after plates, rolls after rolls, until our big belly surrender... How many we took? Approximately 31 plates!

But when the bill came, we were like WTF?! Apparently, some of the sushi was not on the RM2 promotion, and they are differentiated with a half ring plate, we actually saw a card written this next to the belt, but we didn't really take attention to it... Well, that cost us around RM94+...

All time favorite, Unagi Sushi! Look at that juicy big grilled unagi, yummy!

12th April, while I had just parked my car at Mid Valley, was going there for dinner and movie with colleagues, that crazy Chean called me. He told me he had this hallucination, smelling sushi aroma even in the office! OMFG! So we went for sushi, again. Yanny were not able to join because mum had cooked.

Second day, not much but still alot!

Both of us also felt not that hungry despite that crazy Chean's sushi hallucination. So, after a few plates, we decided only focus on our all time favorite Unagi Sushi again! Oh man, I think after 2 days of sushi marathon, we are not gonna touch any sushi again, in the next couple of months... (BTW, we have some sushi coupon deadline on 22th April, sushi anyone? Hahaha)

Gunung Nuang - Attempt 2

2007-03-25T22:17:00.000+08:00

First attempt was last Sunday, we went with the girls, and other bunch of KK wanna be, total of 19 people, just managed to hit entrance of Lolo camp, the old dam water gate, but it was a very good result consider most of us are "cityman" which lack of exercises!

Today we, me(Chun), Kong, Chean, Yanny and Jetty went for attempt number 2! We gathered ourselves at 630am, arrived at the registration office around 730am, moving our ass towards the mountain 740am.

We met a group of hikers, big family, with heavy backpacks and gears, at the parking ground there. Looked like they were planning to camp in the mountain, Lolo camp site perhaps?

We traveled in light, too light I would say, 1 hot dog bread for each one, a few chocolate bars, and some of them just brought a small bottle size mineral water, are we nuts?

There goes another pair of Chean's snickers...

Dunno why, the journey seemed harder and longer than last week, we stopped like 3 or 4 times to rest our ass off. Slopes after slopes, everyone was yelling "Is it there yet?!" numerous time.
One of the reason was probably the path was muddy and slippery, extra effort needed to get ourselves moving. And travel in a big group does make a morale difference, compare to 5 of us, at least in that big group, you can see people ahead of you, while the little few of us, can only see never ending steep slopes...

Jet posting the victory sign while jerking off.. eerr... pee-ing

At last, around 930am, we arrived at the water gate! While we were resting and planning for the next move, a group of aged uncles.... eerr... hikers appeared. Apparently they were the one who drove the 4WD jeep, which we roughly saw it when we started to climb toward the water gate.

The tired "F4"...

We were still making fun around while the aged uncles were long gone. Because Yanny needed to attend his friend's wedding rehearsal at 2pm, so we set our cut off time at 10am, that means we climb whatever we could, until 10am, we move down. At least we have a target now, so we just move on from there.

Campers were all over Lolo camp, camps were one after another, we also saw the aged uncles setting up theirs too. And there it is, the path toward Dataran Pacat, it was 10 years ago I stepped my foot on it for the first time! Without hesitation, we submerged ourselves into the forest again.

This time, there were no slopes after slopes, but it was almost 45 degrees steep path all the way!! The journey was extremely tiring, but we felt quite excited, this was almost new to us, and it's challenging! Frankly speaking, we have walked that route to Lolo camp dozen of times, and it's damn boring and demotivating! And now this is what I call hiking! At first, we were still able to talk cocks and making jokes, but after 20 minutes, everyone started to have this unbearable sourness pain in their legs.

The endless 45 degrees path.

Then we saw the aged uncles, coming from our back, and walk passed, quite relax, well, at least we could say we had walked 1 1/2 hours before this, but they just drove here. It was almost 11am when we stopped again, arguing to continue or move down. The guys' shoes were too slippery for that condition, they were doing moon walk almost from starting, and we were tired and thirsty, I really wanted to continue badly, but looking at Yanny's appointment, and everyone tired face, including myself of course, we just had to accept the fact we were not ready this time, in terms of time and stamina... While we were struggling to make the decision, a group of hikers with 4 elderly, passed by, this time I was starting to feel bad... According to them, at that point, we still need around 1 hour to reach dataran pacat, 3 hours to reach the top/summit.

Bad condition steep slope.

We have no choice but to move downward. Along the way, we saw the big family we met at the parking ground again, with those big 60 liters backpacks, they were aiming for the top! OK, now I felt totally ashamed. From time to time, we met all sorts of people, climbing towards the summit, walking down from the summit, elderly, youngster, you name it. Some info we got from them, we need approximately 7-10 hours to a round trip back and forth the summit!! And we just brought some breads and chocolate bars? Sheesshhh...

Guess what's going on here?
