This Week Happiness



June with lot of colour from pink blossom to blue-black.

My Pink Blossom :
1. Exam done, yaiy
2. I start run again, and it's been 4 days continuesly no fail Sat - Sun -Mon - Tue
    Running has lot of meaning to me. Not only just exercise to make me sweaty or healthy.
    But the ability of me to achieve of my daily target makes me feel I win something.
    And it makes me feel good.
    Don't ever think that I ran as fast as Carl Lewis... haha, my fat ass and my laziness make me run
    just like a Walrus on the North Pole.
3. I will go to Penang this weekend, Yaiy
4. A for Technology Management

The Blue Black:
1. Work load like a pile of crap.
     Sometimes I just want to give up. Been swam at the same mud, and no progress at all.
     In fact, I feel exploited most of the time.
2.  Late for short semester registration, all class full.
     Now I have to be an illegal student, attend the class without having mark record.
     And gamble + pray hard, wish that there will some people drop the subject and makes me
     able to insert my name there.
3.  B+ for accounting.. Arrghhhh...!!!!!! I was really confident to get A. I feel I can do everything
     without  any fail. ugghhh.... dammit!
4.  Some un-registered people try to annoyed me asked too much questions, interview me,
     and interrupt my study focus.
     (hey, come on.. better you focus on your business and your crappy relationship, rather than
       too busy talk and create story about me..)

Noddle



Alone at Home

I had exam today, Accounting Analysis
Three hours sat and watch spreadsheet is already make my eyes crossed
additional with bunch of case I need to related with the number.
Don't know how many times I've been whining, complaining, mourning, grieving about how hard this month is. And how hard this semester is...
I could only said : Ewwhhh...... Ewwwh.... Ewwykkkkk *puke


But glad it's almost done.
One more exam tomorrow, then I can shut down my mind and have total rest for couple days
and step on my 3rd Semester.

After whining and complaining in every post I upload,
now I feel grateful I didn't give up and choose to register back to study.
Even though it's a repeat, where I have to start again from zero..

Many people around me, include my previous classmates said :
Why Do I bother to repeat the study I've been quit.
Repeat..? what a waste..!
You are almost 30, you should have family, not keep keep yourself busy with study, and study, and study,
you will get old in the school... then too late to have kid, then you grow old alone,
etc etc etc...

I just smile at them,
I have no point to explain to them.
No matter how much I explain, they would never understand.

I withdrew all the money I save, I keep enrol...
and now...

Without I realized, I am on my 3rd semester soon.
And with blinking eyes, I will graduate very soon too....  :)




I am alone at home,
Mr went to run and training,
he will join Penang Marathon next couple months.
After exam I keep stay at home, don't want to join.. I need to save my energy for tomorrow.
(*too lazy to join the training he he he, weather too hot outside...)





So yeah,  
I feed myself with this good looking instant noddle.
Don't ask me how much calories inside, I am super hungry, super tired, and super lazy..

But I am promised to myself,
tomorrow after the last exam, 
When I have more free time..
I will start run and swim again, and watch the food I eat.

I need to shape my body back..

Roti Canai Teh Tarik

Good Morning Kuala Lumpur





Nothing can warm Malaysian tummy in rainy morning like Roti Canai and Teh Tarik.

To every expat who lives in Malaysia or Singapore for many years, and still doesn't know what food is that.
I would say, you are not Malaysian enough to claim yourself  "Yes I am almost local here"  :-)

A simple plain thin, plenty layer, crispy pancake. Served with anything you want :
Curry, Dhall, Condensed Milk, Fried Fish, Onion Pickles, tandoori chicken, godzilla, aligator..
anything you want..!

I like my roti  plain, served with dhall curry  and sambal

It's a nice simple treat for Sunday after morning run.
Reload calories back..? :-P

Summer on Instagram

Tanjung Biru
Port Dickson
Negeri Sembilan
Malaysia





What is the meaning of summer for you?
in four season Countries, summer mean everything.
Picnic, afternoon nap, BBB (Beer, BBQ and Beach), sip cold Sangria and read novel,
or simply walk around to nearest forest.

I am lucky enough live in a place where I can get all year round summer, but stil..
June and July is the hottest month in Malaysia.
Almost 33 Celcius at night, and half cook at noon. You could feel the heat
till you get headache or bleeding nose if you stay outside too long.

Mr Traveller promise to bring me out of Kuala Lumpur for picnic if I don't have class on weekend

And my wish granted..
I start dream to have very nice picnic, include chilled wine, raspberry, selection of cheese, hangi BBQ with 2 Maori chef, a nice lamb legs and sweet corn roasted in the ground full of hot rocks..
Complete with little tent to hide..

But once I went down for groceires, I can't even think what we gonna get.
I always confuse in grocery activity without having list in advance.
So yeah, I bought what I could remember... No Hangi BBQ, No chicken strips, no long island iced tea,
no sangria..
just simple wine and beer..

Here some of the picture we took..




Drove to the nearest beach..
enjoy the nice breeze all the way..
This time I made better preparation. Put load of sunblock onto my skin.
All over.. nothing missed.
I am dark enough, I don't want to be invisible during black-out night.
Mr convince me that I didn't need that much sunblock and lotion. I would still visible during blackout
night if I stay around him because he glows in the dark
LOL..




find a shade under the trees,
spread a mat,
strecth the legs  
took cool drink out of the cooler box

...

...


...

Yeah...

this is what we called relax..
*I learn how to..



watch kids pedalling canoe,
sip my chilled wine and read novel

I am in extra lazy mood

allow myself very lazy and don't have to worry about everything is priceless luxury..

and I really appreciate it



small nibble..


we didn't bring much food from home because Malaysia is paradise of food.
we plan to stop in cowboy roasted chicken if we feel hungry
(no, coz I f-up with groceries... couldn't figure out what to buy)





chilled beer from cooler box
love it..!


Bored with books, 
we walk around to the shore soak our tired feet in a warm salty sea water.

I LOVE PICNIC

Ben's Cafe Publika



Publika
Solaris Dutamas



This is the problem if you live in an apartment attached with shopping centre,
business centre, and hang out centre.
Everything can reach just by 5 minutes walk.
The temptation to eating out and spend all the pocket money on food is always there.
Bad huh...?

Just like this afternoon when we are too lazy too cook and I want to eat something big.
Convince Mr Traveller to shower and drag him to walk down,
Finally we got our food :-D



My Burger,
Nice Patties.. Normal Bun
(I almost never eat burger bun anyway)

served with bunch of fries and salad..

2500++ kcal..



melted onion on top of the cheesy patty..
yumm...!




Nice rabbit food..






Mr's Tortilla wrap
taste better than my burger.. :'(
1000 kcal

Mr Traveller going to join Penang Marathon in November, so he allow to eat as much as he could coz
he run and train himself regularly.
ME...?
I train myself in front of my laptop, on the couch (remote control lifting) and on my bed (snor) ?

Time to flirt with my running shoes I guess....

Italiannies






Not bad price, but I wont eat here now...
we going to have home made roasted chicken which taste way way way better than restaurant cooking



Chili on Instagram


Been a month I am begging for home made chili,
Mr Traveler promise me he will cook once after he back from Everest.
Since then almost everyday I remind him about the chili,

"I want chilis.. but home made one.."
"Nachos in Social used to be my favourite, but it taste weird nowadays..."
"So, when we will cook chili again..?"
"Chili.."

"Chili.."

"Chili.."

I think his ear start bleeding, and finally he said..

OKE...!!!!!   WE COOK CHILI TONIGHT...!!!!

yooo hooo.....
I start imagine where I will put my chili on..
Bowl of Bashmati Rice..
Jacket potatoes..
Chips..
Warm Tortilla...

really can't wait to go home to start cooking it..

When I reach home, all the ingredient already there. 
Mr Traveler took an effort to do grocery shopping.
He know, if he asked me to do I will spent hours and end up brought home a stuff which not far
from Pringles, Eggs, Steak and Potatoes.. lols





Ingredient
wminced meat
kidney bean
onion, garlic, and seeded red chili pepper




Key Success Factor :

High Skilled Chef



Sautef Onion, Garlic and Seeded Red Chili together until soft,
Add in Minced beef
until cooked



Add in tomato pure, tomato cubes, and all the friends



Leave it on fire with little bubbly
the longer you cook, the awesomer the taste (correct grammar, no?)
ouch.. yumm yumm...
