For the love of free food.



Every Thursday, the Wesley Foundation (a church) would organize a free lunch for the students in WMU. After hearing about this place for ages, I decided to try it out for the first time. What can I say? YUMMY....ahhh...god bless their kind soul.

But as usual, everything comes with a catch, in order to get the tasty free food, you have to listen to a 10 minute lecture/preach. This week's topic is on Thanksgiving, so all the talk about the pilgrims and the natives celebrating their peace with a feast.

The food? Corn, Mash potato, a slice of turkey and a choice of apple pie or pumpkin pie. Apple cider as a thirst quencher....

A host would come and join you at your table and exchange pleasantries. My host was from Russia, and he is majoring theology; which is the study or religion and God. The irony, back in his country, he was a Lawyer. hahaha. I dont know why I find this funny


Would I go again? YES PLEASE.

Marry me.




New moon came out on 20th November 2009, 12.01 am. Yup. Midnight. Booked my tickets about 2 months before the movie got released. The theater was filled with estrogen, girls and women gathered with their "team edward" and "team jacob" t-shirts. Me and my girls went 3 hours before the movie started, we needed to line up to get good seats.
Thats one thing about America, it's different from Malaysia in the sense that it's free sitting. So if you're unlucky, you get sucky seats. you cant pick your seats.

So I went early, got awesome seats...because we were first in line for that specific room. Long line though. Screaming girls and VERY LITTLE guys. most of them came because their girlfriends drag them.

the movie?
AWESOME. Taylor Lautner who plays Jacob Black was a really good actor. He managed to portray his emotions for Bella very clearly. Edward? plain hotness, topless men hopping around. ORgasmic....but i wished they showed more on the pack of wolves talking to each other in their native language and maybe show more on the Volturi, it would have been fun to watch.

I, personally enjoyed it....but i think some may beg to differ. Even so, New Moon's marketing strategy was awesome. Highest number of pre-sale tickets in history, so far.

Have fun watching. Marry me Edward Cullen.

CB ICE BLENDED GOODNESS




Saw these on the breakfast counter one morning.
Love in pretty tins.
With a whisk to mix all the tlc.
Would make the best christmas gift wouldn't it!

Coffee Bean's the way to go ;)

because you crept into my past

When tail lights flare red one is expected to hit the brakes; because this expectation comes with a fatal threat, it is simply common sense. Today I drove over a hundred miles per hour and with conscious intent my thoughts were led astray by emotional distress. When I saw the tail lights of the car in front of me turn bright, there was little hesitation before I slammed the accelerator. This way of doing things, the arrest of movement fails to keep one safe. My body jerks forward and my life flashes before my eyes. I see the ones I love who are in my present and most importantly, the ones already in my past. I see him, her and them. I guess the fastest way to cure the longing is also the fastest way to die.

Escapism

when a part of you is taken away
You fail to function
When you are without lungs
You cant breathe
When you are without a brain
You can't think
When you are without limbs
You can't move

What happens when you are without your everything
when everything is taken from you at once
You are ripped and torn apart
You are reduced to nothing

Right now
I can't move
I can't think
I can't breathe

Please grant me escapism.

Split screen Sadness

"I called,because,I just
Need to feel you on the line
Don’t hang up this time
And I know it was me who called it over but
I still wish you'd fought me ‘til Your dying day
Don’t let me get away

Cause I can’t wait to figure out what’s wrong with me
So I can say 'this is the way that I used to be
There’s no substitute for time
Or for the sadness
two wrongs make it all alright tonight
Split screen sadness"



by John Mayer.

i miss you

Of fries and toilet bowls

I just had to try the fries at Holland Fries (3rd floor, Queensbay Mall). They had fries with Thai sauce, BBQ Sauce, Japanese Curry, Garlic Mayo, Peri Peri Sauce, Nori powder, Tatar sauce, Honey Mustard Sauce, Wasabi Mayo, Sour Cream, Signature Meat sauce and Satay Sauce. I had garlic mayo and it was yummy.

Next to it was this restaurant called Tbowl. Saw it before in KL or Singapore and wanted to blog about it but I forgot.

Eating while sitting on your very own toilet bowl? The food must be so bad you wanna crap it out instantly ;) just kidding.

Sunway pyramid, curve,
Leisuremall,queensbay mall,
Pavilion, aeon bukit tinggi

I have been to the Pavilion and Queensbay Mall outlets and the steamed egg yolk custard bun is my absolute favourite! Only rm6 for 3, so cheap. *skips* roast duck is super yummy, but maybe duck king a lil better. The noodles here are freshly made. The souffle egg white ball with red bean paste and banana.

I highly rate the ambience. Also, the service is superb!

Unusual

Pools of water on the apshalt mirrors sharply the bright lights of the Sunway Medical Centre. Traffic flows to a standstill and I have my foot firmly on the brake pedal. As the other cars come to a halt so does the swishing sound of tyres breaking the water. I am greeted with silence and my mind starts to wonder. I take in my surroundings and thoughts of her surface at an unsettling speed.


Usually I'd go right. Usually, I would have already gotten off the phone with her telling her I'm just around the corner. Usually, we'd be heading for dinner or supper or just about wherever. Usually, she'd be there, ready for me to pick her up. But that was usually. That was last time.

I imagined her cutesy smile that's so sincere. Her tousled hair agaisnt fair skin. But, it is without a shred of doubt that it is what shines from inside that makes her so beautiful.

My eyes start welting up and big droplets of tears form a stream down my cheeks.

I wish I could turn right now down the lane into Sunway University. I wish I could pick her up. If I were given the chance to I'd hug her tightly and never let go.

I'm sorry for those times I rushed you by calling you when I'm have left Cyberjaya, when I'm at the toll and when I'm around the bend with such abruptness and no patience. I'm sorry I'm so hard on you when you're late. I'm sorry that I wasn't as patient when you had begged me to let you drive.

If you're here I'd let you drive everywhere and anywhere. We'd go 'just about wherever' like we used to. Jack the ipod on to the car stereo and sing to our favourite songs. I promise to shut up when I don't know the lyrics because it annoys you when I simply invent them. I'd spend hours with you at the cafeteria, orange or pink or asia cafe going through accounts.

Not being able to do the things we usually do is so, unusual.

I miss you.

Audit is getting to me
