2010.12.23_Winter Solstice+ X'mas Celebration

I never expect we can make gingerbread man in M'sia. Thz to all my beloved cousins who prepared all the ingredients so that everyone can make his/her own version. Initially, I try to make a BearMan, but end up as a FrogMan. On that night, grandmum n all the aunties cook yummy meals for us. What a wonderful night!

Broken Heart !!!

2010.12.12_18_Bangkok

Dec is gorgeous n busy month for me. The hotel I stayed in Bangkok is strategic & convenient, 5 minutes walking distance to train station and surrounding by tourist spots + shop dedicated to foreigners.

As this is company trip, nothing much I can do during weekday. Office - hotel ; hotel - office. Thai nation is very polite and gentle, smiling country ;p Even when an accident happened, they are still very cool and discuss in good manner. On the way to my office, a car bang the taxi I took, both drivers parked the cars aside with double-signal, discussing the compensation in low volume. In fact, I was more angry than the taxi driver, I'm taking many pictures on both cars as evidents. I told the taxi driver drop by at my office so that he can collects all these pics as if police needs such information for record. At the end, I felt I'm the really bossy type, both of them make a good deal, exchange contact number and agree on certain amount. In contrast, the taxi driver console me n ask me cool down, so embarrass...

I went to few unique restaurants:

1. Cabbages & Condoms ( manage by NGO which educate safe sex in THAI)
2. Big Mama (Italian food)
3. Crossover Bar( Traditional British Bar with typical English dish such as fish n chips )
4. Ted's Cafe ( nearest to my office)
5. True Life Cafe ( this is sucks....)
6. Thai Traditional Restaurant, forgot the name, located at Sukumvit 11, opposite Ambassador Hotel
7. A small restaurant with English printed menu at Sukumvit 18
8. Little Italy ( nice pizza)

Unfortunately, I din;t take photos on certain restaurants esp C&C, the whole decor thingy materials are condoms, they even built a X'mas Tree by condoms. Below pic is no 6 restaurant.

Lucky me, I was invited to join local management celebration. We celebrate X'mas at no4. cafe. Nice food, unlimited booze, exciting games, plenty lucky draw gifts. Well, I only stick myself with same dept colleagues ( 2 white guys), three of us non-stop drinking bottled beers. I guess I had more than 10 small bottle: corona, heineken, singha, budweiser etc... BTW, I still manage to return hotel then join my colleague for 2nd round at no3 Crossover bar. As you can see, A person need to spoon feed whipped cream to another by the spoon attached on the straws. This is good revenge game to your boss. All these 3 white guys are senior management team and 3 ladies are normal staffs. It was hilarious ;p

After hangover, I still force myself to Chatuchak, the biggest weekend market in Asia. The magic of this market is unbelievable. What can I said is: when I finish spent my Thai Baht, I go to money changer to exchange my MYR; when I finish spent my Thai Baht, I go again to money changer to exchange my USD. At the end, I keep 40 Baht for train fees and 500 Baht for taxi fees from hotel to airport. Pls don't ask me how many articles I have bought...

Pls don't be surprise when you see me wearing Punk guitar boy shirt.

Personal rate for this trip: 4.5 over 5.0

Taiwan Part II

I guess most of the ppl craving for Taiwan food. At first, I thought I will super duber to enjoy all the foods, but it just okie dokie. Perhaps sweet source (WRONG SPELLING =SAUCE) is not my fav & I not keen for seafood, therefore my fav Taiwan food end up with soy bean drinks. Not matter what you have order, Taiwanese like to pour some mince+ soy source (WRONG SPELLING =SAUCE)+ oyster source(WRONG SPELLING =SAUCE) (卤肉汁). If not, they will dip with sweet source(WRONG SPELLING =SAUCE)+ sesame oil+ sesame (kind of sweet source (WRONG SPELLING =SAUCE) when we have dim sum). As you can see at below pic, I went to plenty places for food hunting, definitely Taiwan foods is not cup of tea of mine. I discover a Taiwan snack "葱抓饼" taste exact same with our Roti Canai except some spring onion in the bread. There is kind of dumpling stuffing with marinated mince with lees. Fuk Zhou ( 福州人）should know cause I have experience the same taste at Lorna’s place.(She is Miss Fuk Zhou）Taiwan bitter gourd ( vanilla colour, how stange it is compare with Malaysia type) shown at the bottom right of below pic looks like sweet corn. It tastes not bitter at all. Again, I like Malaysia nite market "Taiwanese Chicken Chop" instead of origin. Well, we wouldn't get hungry as tonnes of street foods we can choose. All is worth to try plus the price is affordable ;p

My uncle who is good in photograph like to take some significant logo or sign pics .He can be excellent amateur camera man but should practice how to capture photo faster but not keep tuning the angels or lenses.

I glad I able to join this trip though I busy with current workloads. Thanks God, my boss is an understanding uncle and release me for personal holiday. If he can sponsor my trip, it will be nicer.

I don't mind if I have to travel to Taiwan again. Personal rate:3.5 over 5

p/s Thz God, I can use picasa now. It help me to edit pic n make me looks more handsome ;D

2010.12.02_06_Taipei Part I

Coincidently I have visited Taipei Int'l Flora Expo. It was well organised but too many visitors and end up I couldn't visit any pavilions. Thz to digital camera inventor, everyone is extremely busy to snapshot esp those amateur photographers who brought different lenses n tripod, why we can't capture all these beautiful scenes in our mind, can we??? All these irritating camera-holders includes me :D

Love this fish alike building but the exhibitioner forgot this was Flora expo, we need more greeny things instead of 2 colorful concrete. We rarely found plants inside the fish stomach, really out of scope lol

Two big whales is simple n beautiful compare with HK dolphins...

Our friends from MainLand really exciting and eager to take photo with "HAWAII" logo but not pretty pink flamingo. I heard one of the visitor whispered: Hawaii leh... is USA leh... US US leh... so nice can take US photo... I belief with this decor might help her to achieve her America dream gua...

Love the sheep gesture n position. Perhaps X'mas around the corner, reindeer also turns up in the expo.

THAI trademark: Buddha n elephant.

Have u discover 80% of the flower species is SAME??? Very boring, my dear Taipei Flora Expo organizer.

This uncle generous to share his TVB drama with everyone in the plane. He higher his laptop speakers till maximum level, he is forcing me > 3 hours non-stop to "LISTEN" his drama. I knew budgeting airline (AirAsia) didn't provide entertainment for short distance flight, why he didn't bring earphone?

A group of young boys gambling in the flora expo. They sat besides toilet. Another trio has a quick snap-shoot b4 n aft pee pee.走火入魔 ah... (Google translate tool translate as Possessed by the Devil)

I don't wanna miss one shot, I don't wanna miss one capture
I just wanna be with you, right here with you, just like this
I just want to hold you close, feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment for all the rest of time

Don't wanna close my eyes, I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you baby and I don't wanna miss a photo-shoot
'Cause even when I dream of photo the sweetest photo would never do
I'd still miss you photo and I don't want to miss a photo-shoot

While I pissing, I saw this humor reminder. I must learn how to be an accurate archer/sniper.

p/s will share Taiwan food on following post.

2010.11.28_WeiKang_Wedding

Happy I'm able to attend this wedding lunch at my lovely hometown. The bridegroom is my primary schoolmate I haven't meet long long time ago. At least 5 years, I guess. When I receive his invitation via mobile, I wonder how he get my contact no. During the wedding ceremony, I met plenty old folks, most of us "Hi" & later "Bye". Everyone has his/her own way. I'm not surprise that some of us work or living around the corner. Unfortunately, we seldom perhaps not contact each other. The good news is below pretty women invites me to join their gathering in future. Really looking forward ;p

Mr Kang looks charming on that day, a bit envy he can married a young n beauty wife ...
