My Life Journey

Now I Can Go Green

teik — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 14:27:59 +0000

Dear Savvy, thank you for serving me all these while. You’ve been a faithful car. Hope you’re not harmed (too much) in the process of being violated by thieves who deserved to be strucked by Zues’s most brain-frying lightning.

In the memory of AFR 6653 & my new shade & my fav red.fm CD compilation….sob

I know this does not to do justice, but that’s the closest resemblance to my Savvy. If you’ve seen it, please contact me. If you want to buy the number, go ahead and please ‘belanja’ me if you strike it.

In the wake of this incident, now I can truly go green. I don’t have to exhume toxic gases while stuck in the jam anymore. Now void of paying for petrol and parking, I can save more. Plus don’t have to worry about car breaking down or being knocked for whatever reason. So I guess it’s not all that bad. But I’m regretfully sorry to Mum & Sis that it got whisked away. Sorry Sorry. So so sorry.

For the time being, I have gotten a super bike…

Okay..it might not be that a super bike but I’m liking it. Bought it together with LED blinking light and a lock. Thanks Ginn for getting me around. New hobby?…hmm maybe. Today when I rode, I get to see more sights and sounds. Religiously attending RPM classes have been useful. FIY we score about 20-25km of varied terrain in one class, but of course sans the danger of the road. Great and I promise to be careful. Please do not worry about me too much (you know who you are).

How’s that for going green now? lol

Shrimp Off

teik — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 15:11:51 +0000

I’ve gotta admit that eating a lot has been my forte, but eating fast is somewhat unattested. Last Saturday I finally had a chance to put it to test in Red FM shrimp off challenge at Bubba Gump, Sunway Piramid.

I was driving home and as usual tuned to evening drive with Terry on Red FM enjoying the songs while waiting for the 60k music takeaway cue to sms. And as usual, there were other on-going contests and invites that you can part take – so one was this shrimp off challenge. I smsed in and bleeps later, Terry called saying I’m one of the contestants. Few songs afterwards, my conversation with Terry was played over the radio. I must say, hearing your own voice is weird… lol… I sounded like a kid.

but i digress….

So, the day had come. Most of the contestants wanted to be in JD’s team thinking that being big means big eater too. Since I never underestimated being small, I sided Terry, along with few other underdogs.

Meg who initially was just accompanying me found herself dragged into Terry’s team too. Haha… And the challenge begins – first among contestants in groups of two.

JD’s Team

Terry’s Team

After the rules explained, shouting and booing exchanged, the chow down started…

Each with a bucket of shrimp and the one who got the most weight difference in 60sec will be the winner.

Surprisingly, the girls did quite well too and on Terry’s side, I was the one with most weight difference. Since it was only a point difference between me and the other guy on JD’s side, we battled it out in another round – this time in 30sec. The one who wins will get a RM100 Bubba Gump voucher. That’s enough a motivation for me but unfortunately, I lost! nooooo! All the while, the advice shouted at my ears like I was deaf was “squeeze the butt!!!”. OMG…. sorry guys, I should have squeezed harder. lol

Next was Terry and JD’s turn to settle their score.

Terry!! Your turn to squeeze the butt!

Disgusting JD

Finally, who’s the shrimp king?

The retarded JD! He must have cheated. Nevertheless, thank you and Dilly for making me laugh every morning.. Hehe.

For the fun and good sport, we were all given goodie bag.

The best of the lot – the late night love songs compilation! Haven’t got the chance to play it though cause my PC has finally KO-ed after the occasional hiccups that worsened everytime I switched it on. The shirt is cute, but way too sexy for me. urgh! Last but not least, Bubba Gump voucher worth RM30! Yeehaa.. anyone wants to join me for seafood now?

Generous June

teik — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 15:08:12 +0000

Lady luck must have been on my side as I was blessed with many kind offerings in the second half of June. I saved substantially mainly from meals. Not only that they were free, they were gastronomically satisfying as well. Ain’t my tummy happy? lol.. Heck I even won a book from a contest by Red.fm which I never intentionally meant to participate.

First off…CHI had small little parties for the Les Mills’ second quarter releases.

CHI is more than just a place to keep fit. From the staff to instructors to the friends that I’ve met, they have all added a personal touch in my life.

Then…for all the sugar rush that kept my glucose level high in the mornings and evenings.

The the warm dinner on a cold night at ‘The Apartment‘

The very appetizing clam and mussel dish is a must-try.

IYD appreciation cum Jasmina farewell poolside partey~~

FRHAM even gave gifts to those who volunteered. Free food + gift..man..couldn’t ask for more. What I should have packed more is my favourite spaghetti! Should have packed 5 packs. haha… now now.. I shouldn’t be greedy hor… I miss the lamb too.

Lastly, the books…

Nurse bought me a book entitled Taming The Tiger. Didn’t she know I’m already a tame tiger? haha. Anyway she said it was an impulsive purchase because when she sees the word ‘tiger’ she thought of me. aawwww… The book was signed by the author too, who was there to launch it. Not exactly J.K. Rowling, but thank you so much!

Now here’s a spooky story. Michael Jackson came to visit on his first dead anniversary, in a form of a book! Lol.. Here’s what happened – I was, few weeks ago, went to Red.fm webpage to check out Ally’s review on Ecoba. While at it, I saw some contest links and decided to just check what was on. And since June was the month of MJ’s untimely death, Red.fm was giving away his autobiography, which, according to the cover page, his one and only. Two weeks later, someone called to say that I’ve got it! All it took was a simple question and a sentence that I completed in less than a minute. I don’t even quite remember what I’ve wrote in the ‘complete the sentence’ part anymore. I collected the book on the 25th, the date that MJ died last year.

Thank you all

Looking forward to badminton competition in July…

Do I still have what it takes to win?

June the Month of Food

teik — Sun, 20 Jun 2010 11:06:09 +0000

Johnny’s

Finally I get to try Johnny’s. Next time must remember to boil the eggs before the soup finishes. We forgotten the eggs and had to add soup to do just that! Eggs in steamy bath! Johnny’s is okay…I like the sauce very much though.

T-Bowl

Do I want to eat in the toilet? YES! People are willing to queue to eat here man..but it’s not surprising cause the food is delicious and the price is just right. Look at the food! Yummy!

Ecoba

I’ve wanted to try this place quite a while now. Ecoba is a cool and happening place, even more so during the world cup period. If you’re planning to go, better book first cause it’s always full regardless it is a weekday or weekend. Otherwise if you’re lucky, you’ll still get a seat outside, which is still cool except it could be a little warm. I just couldn’t resist seating on the beany bag and feast like a king. Whuahahaha.

The food is okay.. not bad at all. Price wise, it’s acceptable for a place like this. Take your time to chill and chat with your friends while eating – that’s the way to enjoy Ecoba~

K.T.Z

I’d say, the food here is most delicious compared to those above and the price is also very affordable. You’ll just want to order all of them! Two thumbs up!

The best of all…the SWEET and SIAO SIAO moments…

Guess who’s this cocoon?

Whuahaha…I like this picture so much!

Thanks all! June is great… but it has not ended yet….. kekeke… More to come….Till then, cheers~

International Youth Day 2010

teik — Sat, 12 Jun 2010 12:23:48 +0000

IYD 2010 wouldn’t materialized if it wasn’t for a bunch of committed committee members, volunteers and last but not least the officers of Federation of Reproductive Health Associations, Malaysia (FRHAM). IYD is celebrated each year to commemorate the efforts and importance of youth involvement in promoting better awareness in issues surrounding their well-being.

“Young People and Sexuality”, being the theme celebrated by Malaysian youths this year was surely an interesting topic. Youth participation does not only involve the planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation, but by integrating the concept of sustainability via the providence of youth-friendly reproductive health services so that access, availability and affordability in obtaining these services will no longer be the barriers in constructing a comprehensive framework in tune with the global theme – “Sustainability: Our Challenge. Our Future”

We cooperated with FRHAM to educate young people about their sexual and reproductive health rights and responsibilities and encourage youth participation through answering our survey questionnaires and giving their opinions to the issue.

We have also increased awareness related to sexual transmitted infections (STIs) and HIV/AIDS.

We promoted FRHAM’s project on providing youth-friendly sexual and reproductive health related services which include contraceptives, pap smear screening, self-breast examination, self-testicular examination, HIV, abortion referral, clinical advices and counseling.

Loads of fun, heck I even get to see Xiao Yu in person as she was emceeing for an event after ours.

The performance:

Here’s the cast of glee gleeful IYD committee, volunteers and officers. We’ve done great, good job!

Oh yea.. look what we’ve got in the goodie bags…

Of Thomas Weekend

teik — Sun, 23 May 2010 13:07:21 +0000

Boo Maxis for the slow connection this month.

Thomas Cup weekend was great except that we lost to China, again. Sigh, didn’t even win one game so there’s nothing to cheer about. Nevertheless to experience the atmosphere in the stadium was something new – the heat, crowd, cheers, shouts and of course the wave.

The Elusive Cup

French Bread Balloons are Free! Yippie

Lin Dan geng! and handsome! can undress and do robot dance some more!

China boleh! Aren’t they striking with stabilo boss shirts? Just like my curtains. Haha

Bet you can’t see those camera men on tv!

This is my personal nurse. Haha.. Does she look like my roomate?

Iron Man was a bit disappointing – glowing triangular chest thingy ain’t gonna do it. Ip Man on the other hand was kickass awesome. Hope they can incorporate some wing chun in combat class. Lol. watcha! My name is Bruce Lee.

Forget to take picture with the rest – Ipoh cum Kerteh gang. It was a fun filled weekend, great activities and food.

Also don’t forget to come to the International Youth Day with this year theme being Young People and Sexuality. There will be performance (12pm), games, freebies, and loads of information about sexual and reproductive health. They are really useful, you know. Please come. It’s on the 5th of June, at Sungai Wang Plaza concourse area. See you there!

If you want to be a volunteer on that day, please let me know latest by Friday the 28th May (sms me). Simple jobs only. You can choose to volunteer for full day, or half day either morning or evening shift. T-shirt and meal provided.

p/s: all the ladies and girls please go and do pap smear screening and get HPV vaccine to prevent cervical cancer.
