entry pagi sabtu

few announcements to makee:

my sister (Alya Amalina) is getting married on 24th April 2010. the reception will be held at our house. 

the ego side of me is still coping with this news. plus the fact that she already has her own car and own place to live in, it's just too much for me.

but on the other side, i am soooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy for her! i can't believe my younger sister is getting married. feels like macam baru je last month tulis entry pasal their engagement.

i'm officially transferred to another section, still in KK

although the transfer is because of giving the opportunity to my colleague for exposure in Planning, i am happy because i'm being exposed to Development side next FY. meaning am going to cover 4 HR areas within 4 years in the company.

ok, sambung later. nak pergi main paintball

share you recipes here!

peeps, i am currently hooked to AFC, especially the Licence to Grill. as a BBQ enthusiast, i feel compelled to have the perfect BBQ, and to outdo Robert Rainford (tu kan nama dia?) by creating a perfect grilled dish with a grill burnt by charcoals, not by gas.

anyway, i am also prepping myself with cooking techniques.
so please feel free to share with me your recipes for superb dishes! (link pun boleh laa)

ok this is something i never saw it coming... yet it is happening

ok this post is actually a retaliation to this post.

"why didn't you tell me?"

so, TanTan is getting married. and i am pissed off.

why?

sebab...

sebab...

sebab...

sebab aku tahu pasal her big thing via her blog. >:|

and until now i have no info whatsoever, except for those posted on her blog.

fine!

aku kawin nanti aku ajak thru blog ni je laaa...

(hehehe..jom merajuk jom)

2nd attempt of cooking dinner

So I bought 2 piece of chicken's thighs (breast+drumstick), marinated of course (since 1st attempt I kinda grilled chicken meat without any seasoning).

In ensuring balance of nutrients, I bought a round cabbage and fishballs for my soup.

After grilling the chickens on the stove for about 25 minutes, and spent 10 minutes preparing the cabbage soup, I made myself a healthy meal for dinner.

No oil (except in ensuring the pan was not too sticky), less fat (the chicken's fats provided the oil) and less salt (in the soup).

march to the beat of the music!

my oh my, it's March already!

what i got for my birthday?

well, first and foremost, i had the SBO management committee and the VP of Education to sing birthday song to me :) hahaha.. good job lah people, betul2 surprise eh.
although i was expecting a big cake, and a naked lady jumping out of it. ah, better save it for my bachelor party eh?

she gave me a pair of plush toys, and a shirt. an informal shirt ok. rasa muda pulak bila dpt baju tu hehehe

as for me, i celebrated my birthday with a body service a.k.a berbekam/cupping treatment. had 20 cups, all at a price of rm300.

am planning to have acupuncture pulak next month. rm5 per needle.

anyway, she is against the idea of having a bicycle. meaning i have to scrap the plan to own a bicycle here in KK. as long as she is willing to fetch me and send me back home, no problem hehehe. although i need to find a way to be more green in commuting. i think i'll start walking back home everyday then.

good weekend, and here's looking forward for tomorrow!

cuti2 sabah

nak dekat setahun kat sini, so skrg tgh cuba melawat tmpt2 yang patut dikunjungi ketika di KK.

26th February ke Kudat, semata-mata untuk ke Simpang Mengayau. famously known for its Tip of Borneo.

27th February ke Pulau Mamutik. berjemur setelah lama gila tak pegi pulau. so far dah ke Pulau Sapi, Pulau Manukan and Pulau Mamutik. nice~

next week? maybe ke Sapi balik kot. Iqbal, Nik and Mior nak datang KK.

yang lain tu, korang ni bila nak datang KK? dulu beriya-iya cakap, bagusla ko kat KK, senang aku nak datang nnt. sampai ke hari ni, tak nampak pun batang hidung?

hehehe

24021984

the date i was born.

happy birthday to me!

yeay~

so, this is how it feels..

of knowing your ex-gf is getting married.

am glad that she met someone, who i'm sure will give her happiness that she deserves.

to Nor Hafizah, congratulations! and yes, if i'm in KL on your big day, i'll be there.
best apa gi wedding.. makan free, jumpa kawan2 lama :)

life goes on :)
and i dont feel like coming back to KL anytime soon, even if they want to transfer me. it's either stay at KK, or to Sarawak, or international posting.

Movie Review: Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief

ok, one thing for sure, Percy Jackson a.k.a PJ 1st adventure will never win any Oscar. Unless they have a new category for Old-Mythologies-With-A-New-Perspective movies.

the Greek mythologies never ceases to amaze me. they are a product of hundreds of years of oral-story telling passed down generation to generation, and the main story has multiple spin-offs. Unlike our local folk-lore, they even have proper background stories for each character.
(although come to think of it, based on Hikayat Melayu or something, we are descendants of great Greek emperor.. if we are talking about the same Iskandar Agung lah)

ok, i'm digressing.

my point is, if you want to see US twist of this Greek myths, in other words this series practically stripped Greece of its Gods!, then watch this.

as for me, i find this movie interesting. although there were some plot holes, and not strong acting, but by comparing this with 1st Harry Potter, i find this even more enjoyable.

conclusion: this movie kinda made me feel "i should read the books!", since there are lots of things unexplained. but for those who want to just have fun and enjoy an innocent movie, go and get yourself a good seat(s).
