Iqbal’s trip to KL

Iqbal Iggy, my fren from brunei came to KL for a media trip so Sids & Andre rang me up to ask if I wanted to go out with them to One Utama. They picked me up in the afternoon from my house. I was shocked to see that there was so many people in front. Iggy and Sids (driver) in the front. Then Andre and three of her other KDU frens were all sitting on each other lap at the back. So in total there was 7 of us squeezed into a Hyundai Getz. I can so imagine the looks of people who saw the car :P I miss those Miri and KK days where we would squish everyone together.

We went for lunch at that No 8 place – where it sells japanese-style noodles. I wouldnt call it Ramen because it looks like normal maggi mee. I had something like mee kering with fried dumplings goyza.

After that we went to Lecka-lecka for some dessert – gelato. Andre had creme brulee – which tasted like honey – and baby blue – blue coloured sweetness. i didnt really taste it. Sids had something peachy. I had the berry dreams (i think). Its nice..not overwhelmingly sweet. Oh Iggy belanja. Thank you iggy *huggles*

After that we went to watch “Cars” at GSC. It really enjoyed the movie even tho the cinema was bloody cold. Worth watching it in the cinema. Even tho it might look a bit childish. I kno Erin someone actually cried out loud in the cinema at the touching part :P

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I would be outstation to Seremban tomorrow (and maybe Penang on friday) for a translation job. Kinda nervous coz its the first time I have to do simultaneous translating – meaning that I have to directly translate spoken eng to BM. Would be back in the evenings (because its a day trip only) :P Cant wait for tomorrow nite coz im goin to zouk with my gal pals :D

Shisha Experiment Part II

After our failed shisha Experiment Part 1 on my shisha bottle (it was a bit too small and we werent too sure on how to use it) last month, we decided to try again with Pam’s new shisha bottle which was bigger. {Plus pam was feeling uber annoyed at someone so she wanted to release tension} So we prepared all the utensils and charcoal and stuff.

Pam was in charged of preparing the “shisha stove” by putting flavours inside it and covering it with a piece of foil paper and pricking small holes in it. My job was to start burning the charcoal on the stove. I need to get a proper wire mesh thingy to put over the stove instead of juz putting it straight on top. But we made do with what we had at that moment.

After that we put the charcoal on top of the foil paper and started sucking the hose (that doesnt sound too right) till we could taste some flavour and there was a considerable amount of smoke. Our first attempt was Okay for Pam’s bottle but we didnt put enough flavour so it was rather bland but we were happy coz we managed to get it working. We gave up on my bottle coz it didnt work.
On our second attempt we put the flavour from the small one which was wasnt really burnt and also gathered some bits from the bigger one that wasnt burnt and tried to see whether there was a different taste. It came out too “keras” meaning that it stung the throat and had this bitter taste. Not a good idea. By that time I had this urge to drink so I had a glass of Baileys+Coke. Hmm…tastes juz like cokefloat :P

Our third attempt, we used iced water in the bottle to test out the results. It produced a nice cooling effect (like menthol). We would use iced water again the next time. The fourth attempt was the most perfect one with the best amount of flavour and very smooth. I only had one flavour – grape – so we were pretty bored with it by then :P Nevertheless our experiment was a succes.
So after 4 rounds of shisha and 3 glassed of Baileys+Coke (juz for me of course coz pam doesnt drink), we played around with the camera. Because, what is an outing or activity with Pam if it doesnt have the “cam-whoring session”? Enjoy the pics :D

Rafflesia Chicken Hut

Pandan Chicken Rice, Rojak buah and yummylicious Iced Tea

One day Pammye and I were deciding where to go for lunch. Then she thought of Rafflesia Chicken Hut in The Mall near PWTC. RCH is really popular in KK, Sabah. The two popular dishes are its Pandan Chicken Rice and Rojak Buah – which has this keropok thingy that I really like :P

Tried out the Iced Tea which tastes almost like the ‘zhen chu nai cha’ – pearl milky tea – minus the “pearls”. Its tea with milk and whipped cream on top. Really yummylicious! RCH at the mall isnt all that nice looking compared to the branches in KK. And it looked rather cramped at the end. But still, we managed to fulfill our RCH cravings.

After eating we headed on to Bangsar to do some eyebrow threading. Pammy wanted to try it for the first time and Im too lazy to pluck my own eyebrows so I leave it to the pros :P After that we were deciding where else to go and we settled for Amcorp Mall because I havent really walked around there. Except to the pool place upstairs and Starbucks – which is really the worst Starbucks I’ve tasted because they dont mix it right.

Went to see all the clothes butiques and all the other shops. Pam bought a really nice white bag for like less than RM50. After that we headed on to her house to pick up some things (because she’s staying over at my house tonite) and rested for a few hours.

The IT expert. NOT!

Its weird how some people think Im an IT expert juz because of the course Im doing. So much so that they expect me to kno anything and everything about computers and the internet. Im not like some people with 10 yrs of IT experience =P. I only know the basics and am very very bad at hardware summore. Anyway, lately people have been asking funny things.

Case Scenario 1

During a conversation with a friend on which highlighter/hair dye colour should she buy. She was asking me for suggestions and tips based on the L’Oreal Couleur Experte website

Her : Ehh what colour do you think I should get?
Me : I think French Eclair is nice la
Her : What do you think of Praline?
Me : Its a bit too blondish dont u think?
Her : Hmm *pauses for a bit* Do you know what Eva Longoria used on her hair?
Me : Don’t kno (I actually didnt even notice her on the first page of the website)
Her : Why you dont know? Cant you find it off the internet?
Me : Huh? How am I supposed to search for it? **
Her : Dunno, ur the internet expert what. You can find anything :P
Me : Aiya…not everything okayyy…..

Case Scenario 2

A conversation I had over Skype with a fren overseas

Fren : Fii!!! I ada masalah ngan laptop I..
Me : huh? apa masalah nye?
Fren : Dier slow dan icon dekat Time tu semua ilang.
Me : Eh apasal plak?
Fren : Tak tau la..dier asyik kuar torchlight je….pastu ‘hang’. Torchlight I rosak kot. Naper ahh?
Me : Apa torchlight-torchlight nih?
Fren : Tak tau la tapi bila buka sesuatu, dier keluar torchlight lama je.
Me : *blur…thinks hard for a bit*
Me : OOHHH……maksud u bila nak nak tunggu loading files or folders tu eh? Icon mcm torchlight tu mencari-cari file?
Fren : Haah, itula torchlight tu
Me : …….*speechless*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Its been a rather interesting day. I was online the whole morning from the night before (coz i couldnt sleep) then around 5.30pm i went to my fren’s place to help him with some website thingy. Spent a few hrs there teaching him and his friend how to code simple HTML and what not.

After that Ms Pammye ajak kuar…at first she said nak gi Summit coz clothes there are cheap. But then we decided to go all the way to Bukit Bintang because its been a while we went down to KL. She bought a really nice and cheap top. As usual i pegi window shopping je :P

We had chicken rice and after that was decided wana go to Planet Hollywood but decided not to and went to Idaman for some shisha instead. Came back around 2am then tgk bola kejap before i fell asleep in front of the tv, with my hand still holding the remote. lol!!

Oh, i found out my results would be out sometime after 5pm today. Wish me all the best :D
