TheStar's Intech Typo Mistake :)

Everyone has been asking(okay not everyone but just a figure of speech), "Andrew, you've been eating bread almost every day for lunch, tak jelak ke?" . Actually, not really. It's so damn nice.

I'm grateful to have 1 of the best chefs around - My grandma. She will prepare my meals every morning....while I just pack them nicely into my lunch box.

What type of food? Let me list them for ya.

1. Tuna in oilve oil cooked with onions, chilli and tomato sauce
2. Fried chicken breast meat
3. Eggs(fried/hardboiled)
   
4. Broccolli
5. Noodles(either with chicken/prawns/pork)
   

Majority of my breakfast will be the same as lunch(as in sandwiches or noodles). I will have 1 sandwich in the morning for breakfast and 2 sandwiches for lunch. So there you go.. :D

Before you start drooling, get some tissues please:

Wholemeal bread, Tuna in olive oil, eggs and lettuce


Wholemeal bread, fried chicken breast, lettuce, cucumber and some chili sauce


Wholemeal bread, fried chicken breast, lettuce, tomatoes and 1 slice of cheese - Part 1

1 Huge potato, fried chicken breast, 2 hardboiled eggs and lettuce.

HERE COMES THE NOODLES. Ok I'm too lazy to dig up pictures but this is the one i have currently. It's usually not THAT OILY . Anyway, its home cooked plus its sesame oil.

Need me to explain?

My tea time in office? Its either biscuits with or without the sugar.

Biscuits...with sugar

MISC POST!! I kinda ROFL at this one

I know it is a typo mistake, but i still find it funny haha a blu-ray ROM(BD-ROM)

WEIGHT: 980KG? AHAHA


This is not the reason why I'm working out.

Also, I met up with my friends from college last Saturday(19/07/2008). Those who were able to make it for the gathering was Chin Han, Teik Beng, Kevin and his girlfriend and Heng Soon.

We dined at this place called Damansara Village which is so called famous for their steamboat. Honestly, I didnt really like it. The food was alright but expensive.

Abalone, scallops and...er..clams?

However ONE thing i fine unique is. OUR PRAWNS WERE REALLY FRESH....They were literally bouncing under a plate(this plate is covering the prawns on another plate). We were like "WTF how the heck are we going to put them into the steamboat pot". So we asked the staff to help us with it.

Overall verdict? I rather eat at my favourite mamak; Murni at SS2.

After dinner, we headed to 1 Utama to watch The Dark Knight. The movie time was like 11pm and by the time we finished dinner, it was merely 9.30pm.

Chin Han and I got there first while Kevin was helping Heng Soon with his car issue and Teik Beng went home to get the movie tickets.

Went to the Mac shop, I forgot the name of the shop..sorry! haha.. MACBOOK AIR! HOLY WTF SO DAMN THIN. Seriously, it looks nice but it has no processing power. I hate it.

Morotola Razr inspired?


Kuih Lapis?


Mac....

I'm gonna end abruptly now.. LOL good night!

Lame ass ppl at my housing area- Security Contributions

First off, they forward this email with a video attachment(I've upload it into youtube). THIS IS NOT A CCTV VIDEO. CCTV with audio? ZOOM? Fucking hell if you can zoom and move around, why not stop the thief? You can even hear sound of the wind blowing and the camera is shacking badly.

Oh wait...the CCTV can detect motion? Moving along with the object? So high tech for a house at Bandar Puteri 6. Pfff.. stupid video to force people into paying security every month. If you are so insecure, bring the security guard to guard your car in public.

Why am I not paying? Because I don't want to pay la. So fucking what. I'm not staying in a condo. Even when I was kid, there wasn't a need for such a thing. Who the fuck made you the residential security "president". It is because YOU want the security. Not us.



Dear All,
For your info.
A theft incident happened in 1 of our residents' house on Monday early
morning ~3 to 4 am (7th July 2008).
The thief climbed over the resident’s house and successfully took away 4
pairs of branded shoes. (Refer to CCTV Clip attached)
It’s shocking to find that he is so DARING and seemed enjoy choosing the
best "candidates" though we have guards patrolling around periodically.
Apparently this thief has studied well about our guards’ patrolling routine
and schedule.
Imagine if we didn’t have guards at all, what is going to happen ???

On Sun, there's a case of break-in just happened in Han Ming School with
the theives came with axes....
Many handbag snatch cases also happened near Citibank/Giant area.
We all know how bad the security out there....

The "limited" security and peacefulness we enjoy now may not be lasted too
long without all's contribution !
For your info, the guard company has demanded a raise in their service
charge, and we might not afford to hire them with current's participation
rate.
Again, we would like to urge those unpaid residents to contribute ASAP.

Best Regards
RA of Puteri 6 Ixora.

What a weekend :D

This is going to be a long post...well at least with a lot of pictures for your enjoyment Firstly, one thing I want to blog about are these type of fucked up steel bars which looks classy as stainless steel or ulgy painted green seats at most of our typical bus stop area. I was waiting for Ija(Syd from Runnerz Circle) at Setiawangsa Putra LRT station to collect my running vest + recipets for the Siemens Run 2008 last week. Seriously, tell me how the hell can you sit on those comfortably? I've tried sitting on it...and honestly, I rather stand and wait for the bus.

Why can't they just build a standard nice concrete bus stop seats like the good old days.

Seriously, try it to believe it.


Why can't they just build something like this?

Even if a futuristic bus stop has SEATS.


Even If Apple builds a Mac Bus Stop. It has a seat.( i know its not Apple but seems like it)

Enough of that shit, :D Now for the happy post haha.

Me and my sayang were at Sunway Pyramid on Saturday. Everything was nice...got a parking space within 5 minutes and the entrance wasn't far.

Also, I bumped into an old friend since Kindergarten! Soon Tat. Chatted with him for a little while before we went on our own way. My gf bought some stuff for herself. ME? nothing lol. Wanted to get some tshirts but my sayang kept reminding me that I have alot of tshirts already. Oh well, "Ubah Gaya Hidup" I guess. Dont get it? Watch this

Next up, Meal time :) We wanted to try Wendy's...but it was so damn packed. After that, we wanted to have KFC. I actually said okay as I wanted to try the chicken chop meal(I would eat anything at KFC except for their burgers and FISH products!)

As we were walking towards KFC, we stumbled across this cafe...looks like a typical Oldtown / kopitiam themed cafes. The place was called Pappa Rich =). After browsing through the menu, the dishes looks good ( I know I know, its just pictures...) but the price was quite reasonable. Furthermore, me and my sayang manage to see how the food looked like from orders made by cusomters there. Most of them were eating Nasi Lemak so..... we said yes to dine there.

Looking good

Their er..Kitchen/Cashier area/drinks area

My Cham C Ice

My Nasi lemak. I forgot to tell them which part of the chicken that I wanted. They gave me breast meat so I guess it was alright. PROTEIN!

My Sayang's Prawn Noodles

Her drink..Fresh Lemon and Honey drink

Sunday? As usual, went to church with grandma..and da maid. Got back home about 11.30am and cooked this:

Prawns with Garlic, 1 fried egg, sesame oil, black sauce and 3 pieces of Cintan Noodles.

After brunch, I headed over to my sayang's place for our long planned weekend activity which is; Home Baked Banana Cake but for us, we are doing cupcakes with the same recipe!

Tried to mash the bananas using the mixing machine, but it was too difficult

So we used a fork instead. Much simpler.

Once mashed up with the fork, we use the mixing machine

Next up, 250g of butter

Cut into smaller chunks...easier to mash later.

I'm mashing it because...its too tough =.= We forgot to take it out from the fridge to defrost or soften.

Almost there.

Now with the machine

It got stuck within the mixing arm

But my sayang showed me how to rectify it with ease :) just spin them close to the side of the bowl. The butter will come out naturally.

She wanna mix it too :)

Sugar - 175gram

Add 3 Eggs. Egg white first.

See the yolk? That is for later. The other bowl is..the banana mashed up earlier.

Me mixing the sugar and egg white till its all creamy and fluffy

How to tell when it's done? Just do this :) If it does't fall off the bowl, means done.

NOW, we add the egg yolks.

Add the Vanilla essence.

Adding both mixes

240grams of self rising flour

Once the final mix is done, time to put them into the baking tray

12 at 1 go.

Fill them up baby..yeah

All done! Prepare the oven!

My sayang :)

I wanna cam-whore as well

Let it bake for about 15mins? Shit I can't remember the duration for this.

Here is the first batch of banana cup cakes...SMELLS GOOD!

After me and my sayang tried it, we decided to re-bake the first batch later. The center of the cupcake was still not dry enough but good enough to eat.

The colour for the 2nd batch looks nicer ain't it? I think we baked this for 35mins or more.

Mouth watering?

Home made baby, HOME MADE.

We're happy with the cupcakes...first try and it turned out so well.

Lastly, we enjoyed watching some TV with a glass of Honey Lemon juice. Thanks sayang!

Oh, also, I ran a good 30mins that day! It was a really good comfortable run. I guess I was on Runner's high. Its like I could go on for another 30mins but I didnt want to push it. I don't want to have my legs aching on a MONDAY.

That is all peeps! Happy Monday!

p:s Fuck the jam this morning.
