History In The Making

Man Utd has just booked themselves a place in this year's Champion's League Final, beating Barcelona 1-0 at old Trafford, courtesy of a rare Paul Scholes' goal this season.

I jumped to my feet when he scored the screamer, which proved to be the crucial goal United needed. We will see a historic all English teams Champion's League final this time around. A classic encounter is on the cards.

Tomorrow will be the second semi-final match between Chelsea and Liverpool, who will fight it out for a place against Man Utd in the final. I'm hoping Liverpool will pull through, simply because I hate Chelsea.

Anyway, GLORY GLORY MAN UTD!

Eye On Malaysia @ Titiwangsa

These days, not many would love the idea of visiting Tasik Titiwangsa anymore. Unlike 10-20 years back, when every school trip to KL would not be complete without a visit there.

I'm a person who loves nature. I love beaches especially. Anyway recently, me and Jan paid this place a visit, mainly because we wanted to try the Eye On Malaysia. Outdated, but at least we didn't have to wait in the long queue :)

After a stroll in the park for about half an hour, we found ourselves directly in front of this huge 'eye'. Hmmm nothing to shout about really. Maybe we went at the wrong time. Night time would be much nicer. Couldn't care much though.

Below are some of the pictures we took there. For those who have yet to try Eye On Malaysia, below is the price structure. Worth it? I seriously don't think so. Purely for the sake of trying before it's taken down.

Needing Her

I thought I could live without her. Not needing her anymore. Now that I find myself in deep shit again, the beautiful memories with her resurfaced.

Each time I'm in this 'shit', I think of her. Needing her more than ever. My heart tells me "go get her", but my brain tells me otherwise. Gosh, it would be much more easier if I still had her with me. I know this isn't right, but I just couldn't help it.

I really hope the day will come, when I can totally forget about her and get on with my life.

Sick

Yeah and I'm oficially on Medical Leave today! Left office yesterday at 3.30 pm after consulting the company doctor. Down with flu and fever. Damn...

But this morning, was still able to go redeem our free McDonald's Sausage McMuffin! Steady right? Hey I'm really sick ok. Just that Jan dragged me to go get those free burgers. 10 of them! And one can only redeem 5 at any one time. FYI, McDonald's is giving away 1 million free Sausage McMuffin. How to get them?





Where to get your free Sausage McMuffin coupon?
1) At participating McDonald’s restaurants starting 14 April from 11am onwards. One coupon will be given with any purchase per customer per receipt.

2) Selected LRT and Monorail stations as well as commercial districts from 14 -18 April. One coupon will be given to each person.


Some sad stories to follow. Jan took 8 of it to the office. I took 2 and headed for Luke's place. He suggested we went for breakfast for some tea to go with the Sausage McMuffin. Off we went but damn we forgotten about our 'priceless' breakfast. Decided to take roti canai instead. How pathetic. Went back his place after that, and much to our disbelief, one of the McMuffin was gone. His housemate alerted us that apparently one of it was taken by the house CAT. She saved the other one, just in time. Blardy cat. I'm starting to hate cats now. After what happened to Jan the last time. And now this.

But, come to think of it, it's our carelessness . Shouldn't have left it there at the first place. Anyway, TGIF. Going to take my medicine and sleep over the day. Good day folks.

Hail The Red Devils



Man Utd have all but finished off Arsenal's season with a 2-1 win at Old Trafford last night. Trailing 0-1 just after halftime, they responded with 2 goals from Ronaldo and Hargreaves, for what seems like a result that would see the Red Devils retain their Premier League title for the 2nd successive season.

Things are looking great for United, already in the semi-finals of the Champions League, and on the verge of lifting the Premier League once again. Even my nephew Jarod knows what team to support.

Caya sama lu lah...next time can bring him watch footy and have some booze...LOL

Qing Ming Festival


Yesterday was the official Qing Ming festival, meaning Clear and Bright Festival. Its name denotes a time for people to go outside and enjoy the greenery of springtime, and also to tend to the graves of departed ones.


This year is the first time I joined my relatives for this festival. We were stucked in the crazy traffic jam for hours. Imagine having to drive to few different places for 4 tombs. An eye opener to me really. People mountain people sea. But at the end of a tiring day, I feel it's about time, we the younger generations learn a few tricks from our folks and let the tradition continues.


There was an interesting conversation between me and my cousin.

Me: Keong, few more years later, it would be us doing all these stuffs, as our parents would be too old edi...jia lat man...

Keong: 10 more years from now, everything would be much simpler edi laaa...go to the appropriate website, find your ancestors' tomb thru some allocated tomb number, and do the necesssary all online...

Me: Hahahaha there will be buttons eg. LIGHT JOSSSTICKS, LIGHT CANDLES, BURN HELL NOTES, OFFER FOOD...everything is just a click away...yesss laaaa...

CJ6??

Most of you might have watched the movie CJ7. This CJ7 character toy pet, 7 zhai, have been selling like hot cakes here in Malaysia. Even in pasar malams, I've seen lots of imitated ones.

There have been news, a downgraded version, CJ6 would be released soon! Keep a lookout for it.
