TRON - The Legacy (Movie Review)

Last week on Wednesday, I got free tix to watch TRON in Sunway Pyramid with Sha. I've been wanting to watch this movie for soooo long as i've been watching the preview of the movie. I didn't get to watch it in 3D but oh well as long as i get to watch it i'm all good.




2 things to watch this movie - 1) The Graphic is just AMAZING (it's been awhile since i watched a Sci-Fi movie, didn't really like Avatar though but the last best ever Sci-Fi was Star Wars) & 2)OLIVIA WILDE (she's just 'Drop Dead Gorgeous').


It would be more awesome if it was in 3D. The lightings & the slow movements suits the 3D perfectly. The colour for each of their outfits are either Black & White or Black & Orange. There's the other hot babe in the movie but she had a small role in the movie - Beau Garrett.


Even though the movie title was Tron, but it was not all about Tron as it was more to the other characters such as Jeff Bridges's character & his clones which one of them was Tron. This movie as for rating would be 8.5 out of 10.

Macaroon's @ Nathalie's



Last week on Tuesday during the public holiday which was the new year in the Muslim calendar, Sha & her cousin Fifi decided to grab early breakfast in Tanglin. As usual we had Nasi Lemak & also Kuey Teow. Yums.


At about 11am, out of the blues i decided to go to work & get some of my work done as timing is so crucial & i have one more month to prove it that i have the chops to work in my company. Heeeee. At about 1pm Sha called me up to pick her up as we were supposed to try out the Macaroons at Nathalie's somewhere in Solaris Dutamas, Mont Kiara. People have been saying how delicious the macaroons are.



When we arrived there, it turns out that the macaroons after all is DELICIOUS. Its very filling i have to say. There are soo many flavours to pick & i had no idea which to pick. Ended up i picked flavours such as Nougat, Chocolate, Lychee Rose & Caramel. Man it was so hard to pick the flavours there & half of the flavours seriously i had no idea what it was actually. The dessert there overall was alright for me. It was not my cup of tea but the Macaroons are FANTABULOUS.

Fishy Oh Fishy

A week ago, Sha & I decided to buy fishes. I've been buying small tiny fishes but sadly they lasted less than a week. So this time around i've decided on getting Gold Fishes as they last long enough to see them grow bigger & it probably will live for a couple of years.




Sha bought 2 more fishes to add in with her one & only Gold Fish named 24 Hours. That fish lasted for so many months since her birthday this year in March, while i bought 2 gold fishes too.


Sha named them 'Eyeball' & 'Eyelash'. Eventually these 2 fishes are the longest living fishes with me & somehow today when I came back home one of the fish died. I have to say it could be my fault that i didnt change the water earlier.

So now there's only one left & it is sad that it's friend died. It could be of overfeeding them that sums up to the water being dirty & the fish died. Now i have to go get a friend for one of the fishes.

Rapunzel - Movie Review

Sha dragged me to watch Rapunzel on Friday with her cousin Yaya. After work i rushed back home to get ready & to go through the usual jam on Fridays but to my surprise it wasnt that bad of a jam once i reached Kerinchi Link heading to Hartamas & straight to Penchala Link to reach Taman Tun.




We reached Cineleisure @ The Curve at about 8pm & grabbed dinner which i ordered Terriyaki Chicken & Sha ordered Teppanyaki. Movie was at 9.30pm. We discovered that there was a Blackberry shop somewhere on the 1st floor. I really can't look at gadgets coz once im in the shop it's hard to leave the shop empty handed. I'll be saying to Sha that i must get that new Blackberry Torch, it's a must coz it's new in the market & people are starting to use it. I do admit i have a KIASU side of me that i can't control. Hehe.


At about 9.45pm the movie started & seriously i can't remember how this particular fairy tale ended. I was trying to figure out how Rapunzel's life was & how it ended. It was a funny movie though. If boys were to watch it & think it's only for girls - you are wrong coz there's nothing wrong in watching Disney cartoons & that involves female cartoon characters. Clearly some of you grew up not knowing what's Mickey Mouse or even going to Disneyland whatsoever.


This movie is funny & there's quite a lot of humor in it that you could be laughing & laughing. I seriously have never watched Rapunzel ever before this & i didn't know that there was a Rapunzel cartoon movie way back in those years when i was little.

STOP CHILD ABUSE

There are many definitions of Child Abuse. One would say child abuse is not just physically but mentally. I for once defy people who actually would harm their children. For so many years as I've been growing up, the older i get the more news of child abuse comes out in the papers or by word.


It's sad to say that people these days are getting more 'sick in the head'. There was once i read in the paper where a guy murdered the wife but brutally torchered his children who was barely alive with full of blood all over their body, badly wounded by their father whi was using sharp items to harm them. To the point i remembered reading in the paper that the police had to shoot the father for continuous abuse.



There's one common child abuse case which leads to raping children that I seriously get annoyed with. The cases of fathers raping their daughters are really 'disgusting'. I despise these kind of people. They should be punished to death as i find this the most disturbing act that effects the minds of people around.



The last issue of child abuse that should be stopped is by abusing children mentally with parents behaviour in & out of the house. It effects the mind of children thinking that their parents are neglecting them. It's sad to say that these children are mentally unstable & they seek for love & affection from their own parents & they do not get it. Therefore they might seek for attention from other people such as friends or love ones.

Peter Pan The Musical

Last Friday Sha got free tickets to catch Peter Pan The Musical & to top that off - Free Night Rides & Park to enjoy after the show. It was at about 7.30pm when we arrrived to get the tickets & it was supposed to start at 8pm. As we were walking towards the Amphitheatre we bumped into our friend, Mel whom we have not met in ages.




The show was supposed to start at about 8pm. At about 8.15pm we heard that it was going to start in 15 mins & at about 8.30pm they had another announcement stating it will start in 5 minutes. At about 9pm they started the show. There were some loud 'BOOS' 5 minutes before the show started.



Overall it was okay to me. Peter Pan didn't really seem like Peter Pan. When he started singing i felt like it was another Boy Band video clip in the 90s. Seriously!! All 3 of us eventually had Ice Cream while watching the musical. At about 9.45pm it ended as it was stated that the show was an hour but however it was only 45 minutes.



As all of us came out from the show, it started raining cats and dogs. It was a long way to walk to get to the main entrance. Everyone was soaking wet. Wow!! it's been sooo many years since i last stepped foot in Sunway Lagoon. There are so many changes in the Theme Park. They've added 3 new parks that includes Night Park. COOL!!!!

“Case of the Stolen Keys to Tron: Legacy by TGV”


Firstly, I had to read over & over what to actually write about in this post. It took me 15 minutes to understand the concept of this blog post as i wondered what would be best to relate mostly on the 'Case Of The Stolen Keys'. What i got to know in the beginning is that you actually have to "LIKE" facebook.com, TGV & Panasonic Malaysia facebook to get the whole idea to solve the case of the stolen keys. There will be instructions ahead to get through the whole mystery.





However as you can see the safe contains TRON LEGACY's show reels that is missing from the projectionist's room. Once the clues are solved you'll be standing a chance to win - a whole screening hall for any movie selections that also adds up to a Panasonic 50" 3dLCD which also includes a 3d Blu Ray player & lots more....




Now that Tron Legacy is coming soon to theatres i wonder if i were to ever get to watch the special screening in 3d, it would be awesome as i did see the trailers a couple of times in the cinemas. This movie would be one of the movie that is worth your every penny if you're planning to watch it in 3d. The graphic & the movie trailer shows it all.




This Is Awesome Food, I Tell Ya....




I forgot to post up a place i went to eat way back. Let's say about 2 months ago. I went to Hartamas to grab late lunch & we randomly found this place called Pedro's Place. Sha & I went in to discover that it was all Mexican & Spanish food. I was impressed with the selection of food they have. I must say that we took Half An Hour to decide on what to actually eat. Sha had the most gigantic burger & i had Quesadilla. The price was average & not too pricy. Heeeee.


The other food that i enjoy on occasion is actually Macaroons. Sha & I really do love it especially Sha. We would go all the way to Whisk at Empire Mall, Subang just to get it. They have all sorts of flavours & colours. However my favourite would be Pandan & Chocolate. One tiny piece would cost rm5 & if you get 20 pieces it would be rm18.

Last but not least last week on Sunday, Sha, Fifi (Sha's cousin) & I went to this new mall in the right smack of KL somewhere near Low Yat & Sungei Wang. It's called Farrenheit 88. Sha & I had the most amazing tiny slice of Durian & Cempedak cake. It was at this small shop lot called Su's in the mall. It's located somewhere in between all the shops at the Ground Floor of the mall.


Food hunting for me is the best thing to do when you're free & it's kind of a hobby to me already....

The Social Network : Movie Review


2 days ago on Monday, i got to watch Nuffnang's screening on The Social Network. Even though it was out in the cinema a few weeks ago as I heard from Sha that many people have watched it but oh well for those who have not watched the movie, do check out on how the review of this movie is from me.

The movie was really nice & i found it interesting to find out how the creator of Facebook actually had to go through before inventing Facebook. Well using facebook everyday kept me thinking how this genius actually invented one. You'll find out more & more about the story of the founder & the co founder in this really anticipated movie.

Justin Timberlake is one of the main casts in the movie potraying the role of Napster's founder. This movie is a must watch for those who are curious to find out how Facebook was invented & for those who are still planning to watch it, make sure your weekends are booked for 2 hours to ctach up this highly informative story about Facebook.

Food Heaven





























Last week during Hari Raya Aidiladha, I had a really long break.I took leaves for 4 days. I decided to go to Melaka. So when all of us reached Melaka, we decided to take a drive to Johor Bahru to eat. Guess what? We had lots & lots of food. Seriously, I don't really eat that much on a daily basis but i guess having food here in Johor Bahru just made my appetite going too well that i can't stop eating.







From Mee Rebus Haji Wahid to Kacang Pool Haji. I was loving eat. Whoever invented the food was genius. At about 10pm, reached Melaka & went for a nap. The next day which was Friday, had ayam penyet for lunch & 30 mins later went for dessert at this pretty place which serves Awesome Brownies & Caramel Slice. Later at about 6pm we had Naan with Tandoori & Butter Chicken. ter at about 9pm drove to Jonker Street to check on T-shirts. At about 10.30pm we ate at this bar that sells yummy Portuguese Fried Rice & at about 11pm we reached The Jetty for a couple of hours singing our hearts out for Karaoke.


Saturday was the last day in Melaka & i was so sad that the holiday was coming to an end. But oh well it didn't stop me from eating more & more. Had like Assam Pedas Fish & Bird Meat with rice at about 12pm & we decided to finally go back at about 2.30pm. We reached KL at about 4pm & we felt hungry again. At about 8.30pm we went to Seri Karak & had lots of delicacies such as Durian Bomb, Durian Pancake & i had a dishes shared with Sha which was Gong Pao Chicken & Butter Prawn. The amount of food i ate these past few days.

Now i'm back to work on a Monday & typical me, i don't eat anymore as on a daily basis during weekdays i just have 'Karipap' & a bottle of water during working hours. Sadly but true for the past few months.

CELCOM PARTY


Last weekend Sha & I got free tickets to a Celcom Party which was basically a pre-party for the Shout Out Awards. Performance was from Disagree, Hujan, Mizz Nina & DJ Ash. Seriously we were there for Mizz Nina & DJ Ash but somehow bands started performing first & on top of that after Disagree & Hujan performs, there will be a battle of the bands throughout till Mizz Nina appears.


Oh well i was all dressed up but when i came in everyone was wearing very Indie-ish. I thought i was overly dressed. Well i was in the Library Bar @ Cruve, what do u expect? So Sha & I reached Library at about 8.15pm, got in & got 1 free drink. Sha had Coke & i had Sprite. We waited for 45 minutes as the invite said 7.30pm onwards but Disagree popped out at about 9pm. 10 minutes after that we decided to get out. I wonder what ever happened to me these days. Back those times when clubbing was fun, i could stand for hours & it took me an hour to stand these days & the crowd was getting too much.


Before people start head banging their heads off with all that HAIR SWEAT, i rather get out & not come out smelling like someone's stinky hair, Thank You. I guess i'm old for this thing but i still would love to chill at the bar once in awhile & have a decent drink to chill out. I'm ready to go back to my old roots ONCE in a BLUE MOON but not all the time. Let's make myself not make it a habit to PARTY often. I got other plans in my life ahead of me. :)
