Buffet at Four Points.

The weekend before the exams, I went to a buffet at Four Points with my dad.



Now normally, we would not come to eat at this sort of places because
1) It's expansive. It's like RM60++ per head.
2) Its not worth paying 60 bucks for a meal.

We came because we got a free coupon for two, during the MMA Dinner awhile back as a lucky draw prize. So my dad and I came with empty stomach ready to be filled. I was what you would call 'sakai'. I have never been in a place with so much food! And it's all free!!



The area was probably the size of 4 tennis courts. The interior design was interesting. Whoever decorated this place obviously loved pepper grinders, cause they were every way.


They also had nice deco like this.


and this,

Sorry its quite blur.

When I first saw the food in the cylinder tubes, I though you could stick your hand inside and take it out. Apparently not.

I found the way they marked their salt and pepper shaker ingenious.


The spread of food available was wide.

There was

Prawns, oysters, clams and other types of seafood,


A salad bar,


Chinese cooked food,


'What should I eat?'

Your normal hocker stall food.


Mousehunt anyone?

There was also Italian, soup, bread, pancakes and a lot of other stuff.


The dessert bar heaven to me. Never before have I seen so much cheese cake at one place, which I could eat without paying.



My favorite part of the dessert section was this.

Yes, it's a bowl full of liquid chocolate. All you chocolate lovers out there, stare at this and start drooling over your keyboard. Now all it needed was a chocolate fountain, and my day would have been perfect.

So for starters I had Italian.

There's pizza, pasta, squid rings, macaroni and pau at the background.

Round 2, I decided to try Kuchings most famous dish. Kolo Mee.

Obviously, since they could not cook it with the usual pork lard and the traditional char siew, it tasted weird. It's nothing when compared to our 2.50 kolo mee, but I give it 5/10.

Round 3, I decided to eat breakfast, during dinner.

Pancakes, raw salmon, and a slice of beef.

Next up was dessert.

I really liked the jelly. They put it into small cup, like the ones people use to drink vodka or whiskey. So you can just gulp in down in one go.


Cheesecake!!

I know it looks like I didn't eat much, but I had other dish, like sarawak laksa, this was bland. Ice kacang, marshmallow with chocolate syrup. So on and so forth.

At the dessert section, there were jars of candy. And Malaysian, being Malaysian, when there are freebies we grab it. I saw groups of people take out sweet and lollipops my the hand full.

In fact, while I was getting dessert, I overheard this conversation.

Unknown 1: Psst anyone looking??
Unknown 2: No...quick..
*Hears a shuffling sound*

I though they were planting a bomb or something, so I took a peek to see what they were doing. There they were, two ladies stuffing candy into their handbags like there was no tomorrow. I was like, seriously people... If it was a group of kids or teenagers I would understand, but middle aged ladies???


While I was taking these pictures, one of the waitress came over and told me I couldn't take pictures. I though okay, I'll just take them later in secret . However throughout the meal I saw heaps of people snapping photos left right and center, and no one was stopping them.

Why did they stop me? Was it because I'm a teenager? Or maybe because, I was using my phone to take the pictures. Or maybe the waitress was jealous that I was tall, so she decided to 'kacau' me.

Anyway before I end this post, while I was at the toilet I saw this.

Some idiot, left his cigarette bud in the toilet bowl!!

Ja-ne!!

Freedom!

Finally!! After two grueling weeks of exams, I'm finally FREE!!! Well at least till SPM. Now all I have to worry about are my results and my piano. I really hate it.

Ja-ne!

Patriotic????

Found out about this through my friend Christopher.


Is that what I think it is??? Lets take a closer look.


OMG!! The Malaysian is being hung upside down!!!

This flag has actually been like this for a long time. It's as although the person who hung this flag wanted to say, ' See! I am patriotic!!.....sort of...'

Monday.


Tuesday.


Wednesday.


Thursday.


Actually these were all taken on the same day. In fact even as I type this it's still hanging out there like this.

I wonder when someone will realise this, and change it.

Invasion

Sound the alarm! Call the calvary!! Get the president on!! Connect me to UN!! My blog has been invaded!!!

Yes, my blog has been discovered. No, not by aliens but by this person.


My dad.

Hi dad. I know you reading this. please don't scold me

I personally don't mind him finding it out. I mean it's on the internet, anybody can read this, even Barack Obama. However, some of my friends think that it's weird that my dad reads blogs. Especially, his kids, and his kids friend's.

So I want to ask my readers this.
Do you think it's weird if your parents read your blog, and your friends?
Yes or no??

Commet on it.

Oh yes, before I forget. I know have to write my blog PROPERLY. Cause my dad says 'I you want to write, write properly' Is this proper enough for you dad??

Ja-ne!!

Breakfast.

Today, I had breakfast with some of my cousins and my grandparents. We went to some coffee shop....somewhere. There I saw one of my band member's mum. Busted!! She actually approached me and asked me why I'm not at band.
Okay. Before you start saying 'Ah Ha!' Today's practice was only for the Form 1, 2 and the recruits.

Moving on, I had mee sua. A foochow dish.

It's noodles in soup normally with chicken and egg. The noodles for this dish is like a sponge. Next time you try eating it. Don't. Wait for 20 minutes and see all the soup disappear before your eyes.

Round 2. Gu Bak Mee, otherwise known as beef noodles.

I've eaten beef noodles before, but the noodles in this places was different in a good way. I would recommend it you. but unfortunately I don't know where is it so I can tell you.

Next stop the gym!

Ja-ne!!

Recruitment Drive '09

Recently, the band held their recruitment drive. We started out SKJ (c) Chung Hua No. 4, followed by SK Green Road.



We had 4 performances. First was a brass ensemble playing the song 'Lucky'. Followed by a colourguard performance.



After that, was a woodwind ensemble playing the song 'Love Story', continued by a whole band performance playing the song 'Viva la Vida'.


Here is the colourguard performance video. The song they performed to was 'I gotta feeling'.

MBO

Over the holidays, I went to MBO with a couple with some of my friends.



It is a nice place. Nice deco and everything, but all in all it's like any other cinema. The only part about the cinema that I though was cool was the flight of stairs you had to go up. Now that's style.



I watched 'Gamer' in the afternoon and 'where got ghost' at night, with two different groups of friends. 2 movies in one day, that's like a personal recored for me.


When I bought the tickets for 'Gamer' the conversation between me and the ticket counter girl went like this.

Me: 4 tickets to the movie 'Gamer' , please.
Girl: Please choose your seats.
*Chooses seats*
Girl: All over 18 right??
Me:........Yea....

Need I say more??

Ja-ne!!

Food, food and more food

Over the holidays, my sister came back and went on a food making spree.


First up, was a not so quite nice batch of cupcakes. The white stuff on top are melted marshmallows.

Next up is, is pancakes. Damn these were good.


Pancakes and honey. A good way to start a day.


Followed by, bread.......... Okay, I have to be quite honest here. I didn't like it at all. It didn't taste like bread. If I have had eaten cardboard before, that would be how it tasted. And it was dry and flaky. Makes you appreciate the bread from the bakery.


Here's the best part, for my mums' birthday. My sister cooked the entire meal. With my help... sort of....

For the entree,

Mushroom soup. Slightly bitter, but really nice. Not a tin to boot. Made from real mushrooms, and other ingredients. Toped with some cream and a sprinkle of chives.

For the main course,



Seafood spaghetti using angle's hair and carbonara sauce. This was simply exquisite. Wipes drool of the keyboard


For dessert,

Mango and dragonfruit served with a scoop of ice-cream and Kit-Kat.


What is a birthday without a birthday cake. Chocolate cake.

Why go spending a 100 buck on a fancy dinner, when you can have one at home?

And that concludes the birthday saga.

Anyway, on Friday we made sushi!! By we, I mean my sister only.

First off, you need one of these. A sushi making kit. My mum got while she was traveling. Wahahahahaha.


It has everything you need. From an instruction manual, to the rice needed, to the mat needed to roll them up, to the seaweed and the wasabi. They even give you soy sauce!

Oh wait I forgot the vinegar needed for the rice.


So here's the sushi.










Yum....

Now, one of my personal favorites is cookies!!


Not just any cookies, GIANT cookies.

They were, as I would call it 'fluffy'

Now, second chance. Cupcake making time again. And this time it was really good.



I think I gained weight this holiday.

Ja-ne!!
