Real UNIQUE~

Last night's dinner was superb!!!
Dad brought us to Unique Restaurant in PJ (i think SS12) to eat seafood with his friend from Germany...
The seafoods are really fresh as we just point at them to order, and they will be caught alive! and enter the kitchen...

so many types of seafood waiting to be eaten...

this boy here is the German uncle's son... named Gabriel.

Guess he's curious about everything...

They can't find all these in Germany...

Australia Lobster... (check out the price...)

Why the lobster crampled on the left side, and leave the lonely one on the right side??

i guess there are discrimination in their world too....

Australia Snow Crab...

Really fair & white...

So, they are spiders? or crabs??

Here comes my dinner~~

"No! no!... Help!.. i can't breathe!..."

are we cruel??

but this is how the life cycle works...

we need to obtain lots of nutrients from them... such as iodine, zinc, ... ...

(seafoods are my irresistable favourite... ^v^)

Cray fish... (or 'Lai3 Liu3 Ha1' in cantonese...)

super huge and delicious...

forgotten the name of this fish... but it's real expensive to me...

Snails with baked cheese!!!

something special to try~~

My family's favourite - Salted Egg Crab~~

yummy~~

Last but not least, Oyster with baked cheese~~

hohoho...

look at the shell... (bro said Calcium carbonate, but looks like made out of newspaper... swt)

omg... i gained some weight... especially after i removed my braces...

The German uncle on the right.

His father is a Punjabi, and mother is a German.

He had worked in Malaysia for 5 years, then went back to Germany again.

Now, he is on holiday, taking his family around Malaysia...

I think that he is more Malaysian than me, as he knows the way to almost everywhere~~

------------------------------

The son on the left is Matthew, 9 yrs old.

He and his bro (6 yrs old) can't really understand English.

Guess what is he writing...

He loves soccer so much that he knows each and every team member's name, their position, etc...

His mum said that he is calculating... each player's $..?!?

I saw lots of numbers on the paper... but i don't know what is he calculating...

Maybe he will be a famous football player in the future... who knows??

This Gabriel is so so cute!!!

He can really eat!

although he don't speak English, he understand the word ICE CREAM!!!

and was so happy!!!

(He was born in Ampang Hospital... so i consider him a Malaysian... haha)

I guess he doesn't like the purple Dragon Fruit.

He has white moustache now... haha

Mango is his favourite...

Arhmmm...

The more i take his photo, the more he reacts and give me funny poses...

He's licking the seed of the mango!

Matthew is thinner than Gabriel.

Matthew loves to pose while his mum takes his photo.

He posed with the dragon fruit, which is going into his mouth... but then placed it down after his mum took his photo... haha... he did not eat it...

Can u see that i'm wearing a retainer??

I've to wear it every night, at least 8 hrs a day...

Braces-leh??

After 1 year and 8 months, i'm finally free from braces!!!
Yeahhhhhh~~
(actually after a few days, i got to collect my retainer, and wear it...)

This morning's oral presentation was so 'smooth'... lolx

Bye Bye Braces...

"dont worry braces, i won't miss u...."

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Update for this week>>>>>

The traffic was quite smooth,

first,it is becoz that now is a one week holiday for primary as well as secondary sco students.

second, the highway straight to Glenmarie(as shown in pic) is officially in use!!!

Lesser jam, better for me... heehee

Last Sat and Sun, i joined the Famine30 camp in Monash, then last 6 hours in Stadium Bukit Jalil.

It was a fun experience...

And it was a surprise to see 'Guang Liang' there! (who sang in English, then in Kantonese...)

The crowd in the middle was so energetic...

'Bravo to Jenna who organized the camp!!! Thank you so much... ^v^'

Procrastination

Procrastination is the thief of time...

Procrastination is the snatch thief of time...

Procrastination is the smuggler of time...

Procrastination is the burglar of all time...

Procrastination just robbed my precious time...

Procrastination leads to burn the midnight oil... (obsolete)

Procrastination leads to wasting electricity...

Procrastination leads to unhealthy lifestyles...

Procrastination is like a malady, preventable but evasive...

Procrastination should not be a social norm, yet it is...

Procrastination is a pusher, that pushes our plan or schedule to the next day/week/month/year...

Procrastination has the ability to speed up time, and leaves no time for us...

Procrastination's best friend or partner in mission is the INTERNET...

humuhumunukunukuapua'a

weird name??

NOOO!!!

It's the Hawaiian name of a type of small fish in Hawaii, meaning "triggerfish with a snout like a pig".

It's scientific name is Rhinecanthus aculeatus.

I think that the name is even longer than the fish per se.

However, despite its tiny size, it's officially the state fish of Hawaii since 1990!!!

This trigger fish is able to make grunting noises, possibly a call to warn other nearby triggerfish of existing danger.

The triggerfish's teeth are blue and they are set close together inside its relatively chubby mouth.

Besides, it has a small second spine, which can be used to lock its main spine into an upright position.

Intersting??

(humuhumunukunukuapua'a was introduced by Dr. Paul J during Psychology lecture....) ^v^

H1N1

what a massive outbreak~

Last saturday evening, my bro went to a school party...
At night, while he was resting, he got a sms telling him that a person who attended the party was officially diagnosed H1N1...
My bro was like: "Oh, ic..." and he went to sleep....

Next morning, the whole 'world' knows about it...
Sms, Msn, Facebook, calls....
busy bro....
Then the teacher asked them to self quarantine...

My bro had a bit of sorethroat, so mum took him to see the doctor...
He's fine. Not swine flu...
But he's so happy that the teachers 'Halau' them back home if they go to school....

He's still at home now... am i'm at uni now, waiting for the next lecture...
Since yesterday, we have to queue up to let 'the monash people' check our body temperature...
I was so excited to see what gadget are they using...
Amazing, just hold the gadget near out forehead (without touching), and a 'tit' sound, then 'Next~'...
Wow, that was fast...

So many people are wearing mask...
But is it really useful??
Dad says that it's more important to stay out of crowds, and wash our hands properly...
Drink more H2O, eat healthy food, and self-quarantine if really sick...

Hope that everyone will be as fit as a fiddle....
Health is much more important than wealth~~ ^v^
