Muar Style
Muar or in Cantonese is "Mah Poh" is famous for it's otak otak.no doubt abt it.everywhere u go,there is ppl selling this special grilled slice fish folded in coconut leaves.rm 0:50 for 1 brain brain(english).hehe.
the otak otak v taste in kl or other parts of malaysia tries 2 emulate the taste of muar but 2 bad,the Muarian otak win hands down over the others.mayb the fish they caught in Muar is so much special when it is grilled n the ingredient they put in makes a difference
btw another thing i noticed is the water in muar.it tastes n smells different.mayb it's gotta do with the close proximity of muar town to the coast n Straits of Melaka.still if u boil n purify it,shud b drinkable as always.
this place is a Chinese populated area,the ppl here speaks Hokkien,Mandarin n some Teochew.being a KL guy n goin down some small town(pls don't bash me) is kinda like a eye opener.hv 2 adjust myself speaking some mandarin n hokkien since
Roads are much narrow,less cars,hardly any tall n nice building over there but this is wat makes the place special n i for 1 like the classic feeling abt it.NICE is the words 2 sum up the place
the next day on fri nite,went 4 a rare movie outing.watch the Ah Long S'porean movie.b4 the show was kinda fire up 2 hv a good laugh as i hv watched the Jack Neo's shows 4 sumtime d,get used to the jokes he made n still laugh a lot.upon reaching the cineplex which is kinda like the 80's pawagam in m'sia,kinda amazed the cinema can still survived until now.it oni has two small cineplexes.took some pics 2 illustrate the retro-ism of the cinema.hehe.once entered to the cineplex,it is all free seating.so 1st come 1st serve.the ticket fellas are two old uncle peeling away the extra n hardly say anything like "enjoy the movie" as compared 2 gsc or tgv youngsters.phew.
on the movie Ah Long which had a few M'sian actors in it,they kinda potrays a lousy n "cuci kasut" character.pathetic performance by both as the KK sucks n oso hv those 'ah kuah' style in him.can't blive Jack picked him upon all the other hopefuls lining up 2 b in his show.really dumbfounded y he picked a cissy dj 2 b an ah long.the other guy Daniel a model is oso wasted in his ah long role.hardly convincing n very annoying at times 2 c him speaks.the oni consolation is the main actor n actress from the show Mark Lee n Fann Wong managed 2 salvage some laughable moments.overall the show kinda sucks 4 me n so lame.
afterall the place is very serene n a good place 2 live if one is looking 4 otak otak 2 eat n an affordable hse 2 stay

Berhati hati di Jalan Raya ... lo
as a courteous malaysian or can say busybody, i stopped by 2 check wat happened
i m one of the earliest 2 arrived in the accident scene after a callman which usually hv excellent smelling sense,here the callman is calling up his "troops" 2 the scene asap so that he n his co can make some cash out of this mess.
bck to the victim(a chinese man), managed to crawl out of his toyota unser unharmed.thank god
but his car kinda suffer some damaged as u can from the pic.according to the callman,the man from the opposite road kinda lost control of the car n hit the junture separating both incoming n outgoing road,n slam 2 the ground.booooooooooooooooooooooommm.
the victim looks fine n was bz making calls 2 ppl.
after a while i left the scene reminding myself 2 b careful cos there r ppl i love a lot n cares abt me.so hati hati lo every1
Last Sat
frankly speaking i was just there 2 watch out n in case my mom go jalan or go 4 a loo break,i take over as "chief commander".hehe.not good in convincing the gurls,aunties or teenagers 2 at least fork out rm50 to buy it.however i will still try as i always do.still not a sweet talker in this department
as the night is approaching,there was this granny walking by my mom stall n hving an interests in some of the dresses.this aunty is 70years old n still looking strong 4 her age.gotta admire her.as this old "fish" was looking n flipping thru the dresses,my mom as usual will go do her "routine talk" n made a kill 4 it.this goes 2 show that even being old doesn't deter a person from being fashionable.
despite the fact my mom pulled out all the sweet and tantalizing words 2 seduce this aging fish,sumhow this fish proved 2 b elusive and a hard catch. this granny was insisting on the dress 2 b lower from rm 45 to rm 35 cos she blive that is the most reasonable price she will pay 4 it.soon my mom gave in 2 her demands since these days very hard 2 "cari makan"
after the granny has bought it,she began to talk abt her son n her daughter in law.both of them were in Curve to buy some stuff n the granny wanna walk on her won with a walking stick.she said the son is very good 2 her n the list goes on .....
she mentioned that a guy shud nvr succumb 2 wife demands or b overpowered by her as this goes to show the guy is weak n will b bully by the wife.my mom agreed n so m i.hehe

Thinking Wat to Do
seems like at this point all i m thinking is 2 hv more n more money
how m i goin 2 get it?big big prob
the best is to b ur own boss n work 4 urself,but 2 do that need 2 hv a masterplan that can work n might work. me n my partner r thinking 2 merchandise an interesting stuff on toys.this toys r not ur day 2 day game but more on using ur mind 2 think n stimulate the cells brain
2 sell it,hv 2 hv a good n strategic place 4 ppl 2 c n play it so that they can b convince 2 get 1 or mayb more.but 2 get the place,the rental of the place might hinder our plan as higher rental might dampen our plan 2 earn profit or perhaps incur losses as well
i guess just hv to think wisely n take calculative risk in coming up with our "baby"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lately been thinking which will b my 1st car 2 get when i m financially capable
the new toyota rush seems 2 b a good choice given that it is an 7seater mpv 1.5litre engine
price ranging from rm 88k-rm 95k
can't wait hv a test on the car
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
if i m rich enuff,i wud love 2 get this honda civic type-r.fucking beautiful 4 a mean machine
the malaysian version of it is different from the other compare 2 japan.the japan version wins hand down with car fans
the M'sian version
now compare to the japanese version

Amazing nite at San Siro
it is due to the fact the next morning at 3:45am my team,my beloved team,the oni team, n the ultimate team ARSENAL is playing against the UEFA Champions League defending champions AC Milan.it is a do or die match where defeats will mean my boys will b heading home having been a better side technically
2 recap wat happened in the 1st leg at Emirates Stadium two weeks bck, Arsenal played superbly at home and r fucking unlucky not to scored had Adebayor use his head more accurately in the dying seconds of the game
fast 4wrd it is 3:30am n my hp alarm rings,it's time.head 2wards a nearby mamak in pandan indah 2 watch it with other gooners sacrificing their sweetdreams 4 90mins of anxiety n "HOPE"
3:45am sharp,the game kick offs.
even wit the thoughts that at 9am,hv 2 b at subang 4 my traininig briefing,that did not stop me from thinking that my priority at that time was 2 c the pretender vs the holder
abt the games which v won 2-0 away from home,i summarize it
- beautiful passing games that has been the trademarks of Arsenal games
- great teamwork from every1 involves
- impressed with fabregas,hleb n flamini
- adebayor finally getting his 1st goal in CL
- arsene wenger in bliving (has always) that the team gonna achieve greatness
at 5:45am happily goin bck home with my two wheels.fond n vivid memories of the game
while sleeping keep thinking how happy 2 c the team matured over the years
it pays 2 wait 4 moments like this where u cherish watching brilliant display for the team u support
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
woke up ard 7:20am n shit fucking sleepy n hardly can move my body but gotta force my ass 2 move n get ready 2 go training
arriving at the class n knowing my fellow gunners fan smiles n recounting the moments in the game make is satisfying n comfortable 2 know
hehe
