Transformers 2, I watched

Hey, I just sat tight at the cinema chair for 160 minutes.Learned FTJ from the movie. Do you know what does it mean? Or I am that outdated? Anyway, I was expecting two "Foxes" after knowing there is another hot spicy girl in the movie.But, to my disappointment, she was too slutty in the movie. She was more like an anorexic/malnutrition girl to me. Sorry, I still love the authentic tanned fox rather than the pretend-to-be-tanned girl.

Talking about Megan Fox, she is so hot-hot-hot! However, I don't understand Bay's intention in letting a hot girl running around in Egypt dessert. May be to make the dessert "hotter"?! Don't get me wrong; I still like her "movement". Full of impulse and excitement. Now, I sound like a man. WTH? :-)

Anyway, I love the robots. And, like old kid time, I like only the savior of the world rather than the destroyer. Optimus Prime is still the big guy of my passion. Love ya! Luckily, he...Opss, I am really talking too much. You go ahead and enjoy the movie.

By the way, Cadbury has introduced the new Bournville series. It looks classy and exclusive. The best thing - I bought the simply dark choc bar from this Cadbury series. Haven't tasted my awesomeness yet...(how about doing it now? right before I sleep??) Unwrapping it and saw this:"There's something absolutely unique about fine dark chocalat...." Basically, a four paragraphs describe about the beauty of dark choc. First bite, it is so sweet. What? This is supposed to be 45% cocoa. Checked the wrapper again - Chek, no wonder-lah, it is made in Malaysia. It is just 70g per piece and I can handle it. But, it was RM4.99 for a bar. Yeah, can't really expect much. I am missing the Cadbury from Aurstralia. Less sweet, more cocoa bitterness. I hope a doctor will get the hint... :)

Air Itam Zhu Chao

Last Friday, I took Donkoi to try out my favourite Zhu Chao of all time. It is located next to the Ba Kut Teh shop opposite of Chung Ling High school.

I ordered my favourite Belacan Chicken. I rated it the number one Belacan Chicken! Donkoi recognized that there are no better Belacan Chicken in town as well. Besides, its curry is the chef's main attraction, which keeps luring me to go back again and again. Usually, my family order the curry fish head. However, there were just two of us at the dinner table. So, we chose to have the curry fish fillet instead and added on the order list, Fried Kangkung. Surprisingly, the fish fillet was still as good as the fish head. Yummy...

Basically, it was one enjoyable dinner. But, I just did not know why I never introduce this place to Donkoi. May be because I never remember the shop name, but only remember the taste of the food. By the way, I ate a lot of good food last weekend. Stay tuned for food photo...:)

assign anniversary=third_year;

Many many many things had happened in a year.

I was promoted as an Advanced Engineer. That was neither impressively fast nor giving a high raise of salary. Nevertheless, I considered that as a significant milestone in my working life. Thus, I celebrated it by eating KFC with my colleagues, who have helped in solving technical questions, lending a pair of hearing ears to listen to my problems and providing a cohesive working environment.

Less than a month after I heard of my promotion, I stepped my feet in San Jose Office as well as Santa Cruz Office after talking to the people in these two offices for years. The whole paper preparation took less than two weeks. I was very tired by the day before I was going to fly out of Malaysia. Besides the physical strain, I had to manage another emotional job departure from my most respectful mentor in the office. The day before I took off to US was the day I last saw my best mentor in Altera office. I could not remember my level of sadness on that day, but I remembered bidding him goodbye.

Assorted types of work keeps rolling in. As usual, it gave rooms of learning new knowledge. Transceiver is still a big mystery yet to be discovered a little bit more. Digital design is fun and exhaustive at the same time, especially when the FMAX is the constraint in the project. Guiding new engineers is adding a lot of thoughts on EQ. and triggering a lot of pondering moments. Nothing seems to be a piece of cake even after three years. Answering to these challenges is allowing myself to maneuver forward as a human as well as an engineer.

Other than working life, my activities in the company carry on. I am attempting to bend my old bone in Yoga class to the best I can, contributing my effort in community works, running on the treadmill and delivering speeches in Toastmaster meeting. Through these activities, I come to know more easy-going people, who share the common interest as me.

Another year to come, like my boss says. Happy Anniversary again, Leangz~** Keep working!

Anniversary celebration with my batch mates from university

Transformers 2

Counting down: 3 more days. I have a strong urge to take leave to watch the Wednesday midnight show, but there are really a lot of things at the workplace currently, so, off day is not an option for Transformers. However, Donkoi already bought two tickets for Thursday night. My anticipation is building up now...

By the way, just to shout out: I had a great weekend till I overslept like a pig on Monday morning. Blue~**

Mummy Pumpkin noodle

My mum not only managed to monopolize my dad's stomach market; she also successfully won my stomach totally today. This is simply awesome! However, the price of eating a superb noodle was to listen to her non-stop talking about the price of the ingredients and the process of making it. I am willing to pay again, can I have another one, LaoPanNiang? ^_^

Golden soup noodle...yummy! yummy! yummy!

p/s: I am so sinful today because I had meaty sausages and meatloaf as lunch at Ben's Diner. Lunch+Dinner-Breakfast > Over the daily calorie requirement...oh, damn the good food!

Japanese Paper Doll

A few of my office friends and I were thinking of visiting Seri Cahaya again on this coming weekend. Instead of delivering food to their doorstep, we decided to do something, which would involve more interaction with the kids.

After 5 o'clock, Ann dropped in my cube to talk about what to share with the kids when we were there. Both of us agreed on teaching the kid how to make a Japanese Paper Doll.

Hence, after taking my shower and having the yummy pumpkin noodle at home, I began my research on how to make one Japanese Paper Doll. The last time I made one or the only one was in Primary school time. Even though my memory is not deteriorating, I don't exactly recall the whole process. Of course, Google is always handy to solve any brain-misplaced information. However, out of the sudden, it was as if there was a lightning striking in my head - where is my Japanese Paper Doll from my best friend in Primary school. I searched for it in my treasury box and found it! Unbelievable, after 15 years, it was still there. I can't recall exactly where is mine. Probably, I exchanged it with her after the art class. By staring at it, I had a mixed feeling. The feeling of gratefulness that I once had such a best friend in life, the guilt that I had never knew how to cherish this purest friendship when I was too young and the strong urge to talk to her again to check out how is she doing lately.

Her Japanese Paper Doll for me

Putting aside the emotional moment - look at the picture below! That is my attempt using all the recycle items, which can be easily found around at home. Yes, I am going to influence the kids in believing "Recycle" too! Of course, the paper doll would be more pretty and authentic if using the origami paper. However, economic is not good! Blek!

Cheng...Cutey Japanese Paper Doll is done!

By the way, we might have a crew of photographers following us in this coming weekend too. According to one of my colleagues, he is interested to take photograph of any charity event for a contest. The winning prize is a donation to the charity home, where the event is held. What a meaningful contest!!!

Anyone happen to be in Penang on this coming Saturday morning (tentative) and would like to help out in the "art" class, please feel free to leave me a message. :)
