The end of April

The end of the month of April, 2009. It is such a month that I will not like it repeats itself again because it is so twisted that I almost wanted to throw myself to the sea.

I am focusing on the business and not my personal life.

I almost secure a job which is worth millions of dollar, but due to some misdirection given by the owner, we are almost fooled to pick up a job which is actually authentic, but under fund. This always happened in the business world. I almost wanted to punch someone when the owner at the end of the days announced he will pick up the job by himself... and I wish him all the best and good riddance.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Personal life, my brother is getting married in less than 11 days. I wish him all the best and I can see him striving for the best because planning a wedding is not that easy...

I am looking forward for next week because I hope I will be at the place: NO BLACK TIE to attend one of the French Art Event: From the Beltuner... something interesting and fun.

I am looking at my PS2. It broke down... I am looking at it and I am like: please resurrect and come back to me.

Strange dream: I have the most strange dream of all, I was in a haunted house and the 'guest' was keep disturbing me and I really can't avoid all the scream and stuff... but suddenly a 'cross' rise from the fallen state to stand in front of me... I search for the meaning of the cross in the dream: IT MEANS SOMETHING GOOD IS COMING MY WAY AND I REALLY HOPE IT DOES.

David Garrett just came up with another album: Encore. It is something unexpected. It was a mix of classical and a bit of electronics...

I started listening to Classical Music again, Beethoven, Mozart, Rachmaninoff, Bach, Gershwin and more... I am so lazy lately, I did not listen to them for such a long time and I really almost kill myself for this.

South Park... it is a mixture of laughter and hate because it is so damn funny that you can't stop laughing at it and you really can't blame them for all the vulgarity.... but it is a must.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Providore.. a restaurant in Solaris... overrated and too expensive.The simple pork chop is costing me RM 48, which I can make a better pork chop myself. You just needed to marinate to make the meat a bit tender and nice. It was just too plain.. compared to Kristao at the Asia Heritage Row opposite Sheraton Hotel.

Bisou is another place that is overrated restaurant, they don't really know how to cook a carbonara...it is too wet... carbonara is something dry but with cheese sauce on it.... oh really. The so call PIE... my foot...hahaha, Damien make a better pie than them... I presume.

Answer to my own question

I was watching South Park yesterday and something funny came up:

Love is based on feeling and not logic, if it is based on logic, it will be dull.

Did it answered my question: YES!

The Friday's affair

It should be a SD new building architecture presentation done by my good friend Hanc. Later, we went to a drinking session with all my business colleagues until 9pm.

Then, AM showed up at the other restaurant when I was having dinner with my friend. We have some nice dinner and a splendid bottle of wine (not my preference because I don't like white wine). Because the place is shutting down, we went to RAW for some more drinks and believe it or not this old bear do some dancing on the dancing floor. And I should quit it because I am sure old. I also requested some special drink where the bar tender was kind enough to give the old bear to teach them to make some special icy cold drink. Vodka, red wine, stawberry and black berries to the cocktail. We drank and dance some more.

At around 1am, we walked out of the bar, AM fell down due to the steps and sprained her leg. I walk her to the entrance and eventually carried her across the street. Then later we hold hands... the night ended where I have debate with her either that she can drive home or not, fortunately her friend drove her home. Me? I ended sleeping at the highway resting place from 1:30 to 6am and go back to work as usual.

I know what will you guys or gals ask? Where is this going?

I ended my last relationship just few months ago, and I may start another one... is this something right? Right or wrong? This makes me looks like a 'pig'? I don't know, because if I followed my heart... it is right... if I followed my thinking... I am wrong.... which should I followed? I don't know, I am just bursting something on my mind right now...

Lumut Trip

It was a planned business trip where I was with two business partners went to Lumut on last Wednesday.

It was a three hours drive from PJ and I found the trip refreshing and nice.

We passed a few historical buildings such as Kellie castle and etc.

We went to the Royal Navy base because of some business opportunities and we are able to see how our Malaysia 'NAVY SEAL' at work.


Then after visiting the site, we drove around the area looking for a hotel because we did not want to take a ferry to Pangkor Island, however we able to book the most expensive hotel in Lumut.

When I reached my hotel room, I found out that I dropped my ID card. I was thinking where would I drop it. I went back to the crime scene, and the ID card was there. I was lucky.

After that, I went back to the hotel and drove around to look for food. We went to Sitiawan. And after three to four u turns we were guided to go to Kampung Cina which is ironically the restaurant there don't serve pork.... however the foods were fresh and damn cheap... 4 seafood dishes: Crab, Fish, Lala(mussels) and Oyster Omelet. And one vegetable dish only cost me RM 89. Not too bad. Then after the feast, we went to have some food massage... bad idea because it was pretty bad.

The next morning, with the complimentary breakfast buffet facing the beautiful seaside, we are enjoying some short break (about 2 hours to be exact). Then we went back to our room and went to the site for the ground breaking ceremony.

It was a boring ceremony with a lot of blah blah blah... however we were able to shake hands with Perak MB, Dr Zambry. He is a nice guy.

Then, we drove to Tapah for food, unfortunately the place were closed and we drove further down to Bidor, bought some of the local delicacies. I have some siew pau and I dare to say this their siew pau is better than seremban siew pau.

Finally we drove back to PJ around 5pm.

Tenji

I make an official visit to my friend's restaurant on Wednesday and Friday this week... it is a good place to have varieties of foods (few hundreds of foods to choose from) and the atmosphere there is also good.

What is kindness

"Kindness is like a breath. It can be squeezed out, or drawn in."

What is on your mind when you read this sentence? It is something that we always have on mind... or dare I asked how many acts of kindness that you have done lately...

It is something that we dare to imagine of a society when kindness is never been practiced towards all living beings and all non living beings?

Think of this sentence and reminds yourself of an act of kindness that you have done, that you will never forget... is there any such activities?
