Cate Trip~~!

Last Sunday, Shirley promise to bring us to eat “kerang bakar” at the place that actually near her house but it is far far away from our house. At about twelve o’clock at the afternoon, Shirley come fetch me and then both of us went to fetch Vincent and followed by Alex and Sin Zai. Both of Alex and Sin Zai live together and when we arrived, they just wake up, so we stay at their home to wait for them for “preparation”, haha. Then, we just went to fetch Raymond at his house.

After that, we went to One Borneo by Shirley’s car, and since there are six of us, there is not enough space for sure, so we had to force to squeeze all of us into the car. What lucky is that Vincent and Sin Zai are very thin and we managed to do it, haha. Vivian was waiting for us at One Borneo and then drove her car followed at the back of Shirley’s car since she does not know about the place that Shirley means.

After the long distance of the way, we finally arrived at a “warung” besides the road, and Shirley went to order some food for us meanwhile we went to get some coconut pudding for ourselves and the coconut puddings are so delicious! After we wait for a while, finally, the food had come and some of them were starving that time. Shirley had ordered some “kerang bakar”, satay and “kalapa bakar”. All of the food were very delicious and fresh except for the kelapa bakar, its’ juices tasted a bit strange but the “meat” of the coconut is delicious. The environment of the “warung” is still comfortable although it located besides the road and just a small place. All of us were having a fun time there and enjoying chitchatting.

After that, Shirley bring us to the crocodile farm which located near to there but we do not went into the farm, we just look around at the outside which they had place some crocodile eggs to let people to have a look into it. We leave the crocodile farm after we stay there for about ten minutes. Besides that, we went to Tuaran to eat “Tuaran mee” and Raymond was feeling very imperative for it. Shirley suggested us to try the konlou mee but we still prefer fried tuaran mee after we tested that noodles.

At around five o’clock in the afternoon, Shirley sent us back to our home before she went to fetch her mother at Kolombong. We also plan to go there again together with Henry and Kenny since they did not follow us this time.

Dinner night

I went to have my dinner with friends at Alex’s house last Tuesday. We suggest to cook ourselves so Alex go to the market to buy some ingredients that afternoon. We decide to cook potato chicken, bean sprout and pork with salt fish. Alex also decides to cook the corn soup.

At the night, while we arrived Alex’s house, those boys had already started to prepare and cook in the kitchen. Alex and Vincent are busy preparing those ingredients like cutting the chicken and the meat. Shirley and I were bored since they did not let us to help them but I still helping them to peel the potatoes and cutting the chicken while Vivian and Sin Zai go take some clothes to the laundry. After that, Shirley said that she want to cook chicken cola for us so Alex decide not to cook the potato chicken and change to chicken cola.

We finished cook at about eight o’clock and all of us were starving. We helped to set up the dining table while waiting for Alex to finish his bath. The dishes were very delicious especially the chicken cola and the corn soup. Another was a bit too salty but still they tasted very delicious. After finished our dinner, Sin Zai and Vivian helped to wash those dirty plates.

Later, we stayed at Alex’s house for chitchatting and watched some movie using his laptop. Due to Shirley need to arrive home earlier, so we send Shirley back to One Borneo since her sister say will fetch her home from there. Since there is already near eleven o’clock, the shops in the shopping mall had closed so we went to Waterfront there to “yam cha” and after chitchatting for a while there, Alex send us back at around one o’clock.

Alice In Wonderland

I went to watch the movie “Alice in wonderland” with my friends on last Thursday. Shirley does not follow us because she was not free that night. We went to the cinema at One Borneo at about eight o’clock and went to the ticket counter there to buy the ticket. We were lucky because last Thursday was actually the preem of the movie so there was many people going to watch the movie, and we succeed to buy the last nine movie tickets although the seats are considered quite front for us. The movie starts at 9:25, so they decide to have some “snacks” at McDonald while waiting for the time.

“Alice in Wonderland” is a 2010 fantasy adventure film directed by Tim Burton, written by Linda Woolverton, and starring Mia Wasikowska as Alice Kingsleigh, Johnny Depp as Mad Hatter, Helena Bonham Carter as Iracebeth of Crims, the Red Queen, Anne Hathaway as Mirana of Marmoreal, the White Queen, Crispin Glover as Ilosovic Stayne, the Knave of Hearts, and other peoples. It is an extension of Lewis Carrol’s novels Alice’s adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass. The film uses a technique of combining live action and animation.

In the film, as overall, Alice is now nineteen years old and accidentally returns to Underland, a place where she previously visited thirteen years ago. She is told that she is the only one that can slay the Jabberwocky, a dragon controlled by the Red Queen.

Troubled by a recurring dream featuring strange creatures, nineteen-year-old Alice Kingsley attends a party at a Victorian estate shortly after the death of her beloved father. She learns that the formal affair is actually an engagement party to eventually wed her into the Ascot family who now own her father's trading firm. Unsure of how to reply to Hamish Ascot's proposal, Alice runs away and follows the White Rabbit, Nivens McTwisp. She then falls down a rabbit hole into Underland, where she is told that she is the only one that can slay the Jabberwocky. At the last part of the movie, Alice fights the Jabberwocky and is nearly killed but the Hatter distracts it, starting an all out brawl between the Red and While Queens’ forces. The Hatter fights and overcomes Ilosovic as Alice beheads the Jabberwocky.

Without the beast to instill fear, the Red Queen is deposed and banished with Stayne to the outlands forever. Alice returns home, where she refuses Hamish’s proposal and becomes an apprentice for his father with the idea of beginning trade routes with China. The film ends withAlice sailing away on a ship with Absolem, now as a butterly, fluttering off and away from her shoulder.

I think this is not a bad movie although it does not as splendid as Avatar or other movie, but still it has good effect and all the wonderful background and actors/actress combining with animation especially some of the animates are extremely cute and look real.

Henry bear’s birthday~

Last Sunday afternoon, we went to celebrate Wei Xiong’s (Henry) birthday at Kk Box, which located at Karamunsing. At first, we decide to take the package of lunch set which start from 11 o’clock in the morning until 2 o’clock in the afternoon, but we were late so we choose the package of Happy Hour for eight peoples which start from 2 o’clock in the afternoon to 7 o’clock. Before that, we also go to the Japanese restaurant in karamunsing to have our breakfast. Besides that, we also went to some of the computer shop to look for some laptop since Shirley and I decided to buy a new laptop.Besides that, Shirley and Raymond also went to the bakery to buy a birthday cake for Henry and of course we did not let him know about that.

After that, we went to the Kk Box when the time is reached. At first, everyone was still feel shy to sing and the atmosphere was boring but except for Sin Zai, once we enter the room, he straight away walk to get the remote control and keep choosing the songs that he want to sing. Then when the waiter came in to take order and they had ordered two jug of beer, a jug of honey lemon and a jug of lemon tea.

Raymond was forced to drink a glass of beer by our birthday boy, Henry and he started feel hot and sleepy after that glass of beer. His face slowly become red like tomato, after silent for a while, he started to feel high and keep shout that he want to sing the song and sing it very loudly. All of us keep laughing at him but he totally ignored our feeling and continues with his action.

After that, Raymond and Kenny went to the bakery to take the cake that they had reserved it before, while we continue to sing inside the room. Then Raymond bring the cake while Kenny switched off the light and Henry was quite surprise when he saw the cake. All of us sang him three version of birthday song, and he made a wish before blew the candles. Shirley and Raymond also smear some cream to Henry’s face to make fun of him. Vivian helped to slice the cake while Henry was going to wash his face in the toilet.

After that, Henry and Kenny ordered another two or three more jugs of beer and some of the boys have already getting drunk especially Raymond. Of course, Henry and Alex also getting drunk after that. We keep take photos and enjoyed as much as we can. Kenny also forced to kiss Sin Zai by Shirley, of course, they were just acting, not really does it, but still, the photo look real and funny with the help of Vivian which push Sin Zai’s head near to Kenny.

We only left the Kk Box at 7 o’clock and we went to Center Point to have our dinner. Shirley and Vivian did not follow us because Shirley needs to back home earlier while Vivian had to meet with her friends. After finished our dinner, the boys went to play pool for a while and we went back at around 10 o’clock in the night.

Love Story by Taylor Swift

We were both young when I first saw you
I closed my eyes and the flashback starts
I’m standing there in the balcony in summer day
See the lights; see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way to the crowd
And say hello, little did I know

That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said, “Stay away from Juliet!”
And I was crying in the staircase
Begging you please don’t go

And I said,
“Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes”

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet, ’cause we’re dead if they knew
So closed your eyes, escape this town for a little while
’cause you’re Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said, “Stay away from Juliet!”
But you were everything to me
And I was begging you please don’t go

And I said,
“Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes
Romeo, save me, they’re trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it’s real
Don’t be afraid, we’ll make it out of this mess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes”

I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you were fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town

And I said,
“Romeo, save me, I’ve been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head, and I don’t know what to think”
He knelt down to the ground and pulled out a ring
And said,
“Marry me, Juliet, you’ll never have to be alone
I love you and that’s all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes”

oh~oh~oh~
We were both young when i first saw you

This song is about the story of Romeo and Juliet, sang by Taylor Swift.I think it is romantic and i love the melody of it, it is soft and it make people feel relax when listen to it. Besides that, the content of the lyrics also different from the real Romeo and Juliet's story. In this song, both of two main characters have a good and happy ending. I love this song very much.

Sushi king & Starbuck with friends

I went to have my dinner at one Borneo’s Sushi King with my ATI College friends, Vivian, Shirley, Alex, Raphael, and also Fitri on last Friday’s night. That night, I followed Alex’s car and he fetch me at about 8 o’clock since Raphael only free on about 9 o’clock. So when we arrived One Borneo then we just call Vivian come to find us since she live at the condominium there.

We decide to have our dinner first while waiting for the others, since it is late already for our dinner time. No longer after that, Shirley had arrived and joined us for the dinner. While we were ordering our food, the waitress there told us that some of the food set which show inside the menu cannot order due to the time that near to their closing time, so we got no choice but to order some of the small set of Sushi. Pity Raphael and Fitri, they arrived even late than us so there is no much left for them to order, so they just simply eat for their dinner.

After that, we decide to watch movie there but there is no movie that is suitable for our time, so they suggest drinking at Starbuck and chit-chatting there. Then, Shirley went back earlier due to her parents do not let her drive herself late in the night, and we also went back after chit-chatting for a while there.

Junior Gathering~

During Chinese New Year, I went out with my junior’s friends. Since we had know each other since junior one, so all of us are very close. Besides that, since some of them are studying oversea, so we will always make a gathering during the holidays.

First, we went to karaoke at K Box at eleven o’clock in the morning and the package that we take was until two o’clock in the afternoon. Well, the services are not bad but the lunch that offered is not so satisfied to us because of the taste and I don’t know, it seems like they did not prepare it well.

After singing for three hours time there, we went to Center Point for shopping. While at Center Point, we decide to watch movie together but unfortunately the time is not suitable for us. So the boys suggest to go Pizza Hut, and yeah, all of us went to eat again, after few hours from lunch, haha.

Later at night, we had a gather with our junior form teacher at the “Olde Station” at Damai and we had a chance to meet with other junior classmate too but just few of them because most of the other classmates were not free at that night. All of us were having fun time there, chit-chatting with our lovely teacher about our junior’s life at school.

Now, most of them had already back to the country that they having their further study recently and after half year then I think we can meet again during their summer break.

~sHaBuShAbU~

Yesterday afternoon i went to have lunch with my friends during our lunch break at Japanese Shabu Shabu in Suria Sabah which is near our school. We had ordered a lot of food there include set lunch and other single set. As for the set lunch, we have given an option between 2 types of soup which are mushroom soup and fish soup.

The services there is very good and even the lady boss there also came out and chit-chatting with us for a while. Besides that, the waiter there is very kind and ask us to take the sauce at the other corner and recommended us which one is better since there are many sauce to choose. Furthermore, the food there is very delicious and fresh especially the lamb and beef!

In addition,i also love the environment there because it feel comfortable and it is suitable for gathering among friends or family. All of us are having our lunch there, enjoying and chit-chatting there for quite a long time and take a lot of photo there. Nearly forget to say that, the price of the food there is also affordable, not more than RM15 for a set lunch.

So, for conclusion, i think it is worth to having lunch in this restaurant not only because of the price, but also the comfortable environment and the good service.
