MOVIE REVIEW : THE KARATE KID

LAST WEEK on Tuesday right after Sha finished her last exam paper, we finally stepped in the CINEMA to catch a movie after so long. the last movie i watched was Shrek - The Final Chapter. We watched THE KARATE KID as there were so many BUZZ for the movie as some people say it's a MUST WATCH.
I have to give it almost PERFECT for this movie as there were mixture of KICK-ASS & laughter. Will Smith's & Jada Pinket Smith's son, Jaden Smith is the main character in the movie along with Jackie Chan. Who needs a stunt man when you have Jackie Chan in a movie. Sha spent most of her time drooling over Jaden Smith in the movie & she can't stop saying 'DAMN' & 'AWWWW'.


The last Karate Kid movie i watched was back in those days when i was a kid & it was Hilary Swank in it. I find the older version boring & this new installment of Karate Kid is A MUST WATCH. Jaden Smith & Jackie Chan really did KICKED ASS but the movie title is much not suitable to be Karate as it was more to KUNG-FU though. 'THE KUNG-FU KID'???? NAH!!!! it sound weird. For those who have not watched it, go grab yourselves tickets to go watch it before its too late.

(PART 3) - The Final Chapter - Wedding In SEGAMAT..

The reason why i'm actually writing such a long story on my 2 DAYS 1 NIGHT in MELAKA because i felt that it was a REALLY LONG TRIP. it felt like it had been a 4 DAYS 3 NIGHTS trip. So this is the last or i would say the closure of my vacation. We headed from Melaka to Segamat at about 1pm after having late breakfast which was Nasi Lemak.

For me when i actually arrived Segamat, so many memories started to roll over my mind. i was actually there for 3 YEARS doing my DIPLOMA in BANKING (even though i did not finish it). it was part of HOME i would say even though there were no GRAND SHOPPING MALLS, CLUBS, & FANCY RESTAURANTS BUT it was a very PEACEFUL & COOLING place.

I HEART Segamat beacuse not to forget around 7.00 - 8.30am the weather would be COOLING & FOGGY. The roads would be not as hectic & less noisier & busier compared to KL. The main reason for all of us heading to Segamat was for our friend's wedding. CONGRATULATIONS HELMI & AZNI!!!! I'm so happy for you guys.. May God bless you..

At around 4pm we started heading back to KL. Bye Bye Segamat. I'm gonna MISS YOU!! Yippee Dee Doo Dah.. Around 8.30pm we arrived Home Sweet Home.. :)

(PART 2) - Late at Night in MELAKA..

So to continue the story where i left off when i was in Muar, around 7pm we drove back to Melaka just to catch up with some sightseeing & attractions in Melaka. I was still having TUMMY CRAMPS that night & i was really really sure that it all had to do with the DURIAN CENDOL.

It was the KING'S BIRTHDAY on that day & the roads in Melaka were pretty packed & hectic. Some parts of Melaka i could see cars not moving & surprisingly not much ROAD BLOCKS around Melaka as it is known for the HIGH NUMBER of road blocks in Malaysia.

We arrived at Melaka's own 'PASAR MALAM' which is called JONKERS STREET. to find parking is not POSSIBLE at all, the amount of people in Jonkers is like a WHOLE ARMY OF ANTS. We managed to get parking & we started walking inside Jonkers. HALFWAY, i went out of the place as it was too crowded & i managed to get a FUNKY LOOKING GLASSES for myself.

Later on around 10pm, we ate at the 'MAMAK' this is exactly where Sha's cousin Fifi was telling me about back in June last year. So FINALLY i had my GARLIC CHEESE NAN & BUTTER CHICKEN. i really enjoyed the food. the butter chicken tasted exactly like the restaurant in DAMANSARA UPTOWN, D TANDOOR.

As it was getting late at night around 12am, we decided to head back to rest as there will be a wedding the next day in the afternoon. Before we left, there were a lot of COLOURFUL & PRETTY FIREWORKS nearby the 'MAMAK'. the whole day im sure must had been really tiring for everyone & especially the ones that had been driving the car since morning. (to be continued)....

(PART 1) - The Delicious Food in MUAR.. YUM YUM..

Last 2 weeks on Saturday, my friends & i went to Melaka for a vacation. our INITIAL plan was actually to go to Segamat on Sunday for our friend's wedding. So we ended up going to Melaka first when it is actually nearby Segamat. There were about 8 of us. We stayed at Sha's cousin's house in Melaka.

When we arrived Melaka, we rested for awhile & about 2pm we got ready to go to Muar. So we drove to Muar just to eat the famous MEE BANDUNG, ROJAK BUAH, ROTI KAHWIN & MURTABAK SINGAPORE.

All went well when i got to eat EVERYTHING EXCEPT FOR MURTABAK SINGAPORE. I went to the place only to find out that i had to wait for AN HOUR as there are sooooooo many orders of Murtabak. it was getting late already & it was 6pm & we had to head back to Melaka & not to miss the attractions in Melaka & way back then Sha's cousin Fifi used to tell me that there was this really delicious TANDOORI CHICKEN & NAN in Melaka.

But on the way back, we BUMPED into a few stalls across the road selling DURIAN GORENG. when we decided to stop at one of the stalls, their DURIAN GORENG was FINISHED. we even saw a signboard saying PAU DURIAN & that was finished too. but the 'PAKCIK' offered DURIAN CENDOL & oh man i have to tell u that it was DELICIOUS. But oh well after eating it i 'sakit perut' on the way back to Melaka..

BBQ & FAREWELL....

Hi everyone!!!! i'm sorry for being M.I.A for the past one whole week as there were soo many things happening really fast at a short period of time. i did not have the time to share with all of you as to what was happening during my BDAY week. Last 2 weeks on Sunday i organized a BBQ for everyone to celebrate my birthday together.


I invited over 80 people but as usual half came. It has always been a fact that u have to invite everyone & only assume 50% will attend. it's a fact that is proven. so for my BBQ we had lots of food such as CHICKEN, LAMB, POTATO SALAD, SAUSAGES, & 2 BDAY CAKES. YIPPEE!!!! Awesome!!!!


i got a few presents that were actually cool. a cute photo frame with a picture of me & Sha. A really AWESOME laptop bag, a FUNKY ashtray & a FANCY candle holder. THANK YOU ALL for coming over to the BBQ & also helping me out through a very hectic & memorable BBQ party ever.



The next day which was on Monday, it was actually my last day of work & it was also my boss's birthday so we did a surprise for him during lunch hour. we bought him a cake & also we had KFC for lunch. it was also a farewell party for me & one of my colleague who was also resigning the same day as i am. i'm really going to MISS ALL OF YOU at work. there were soo many fun times together. the laughter & the joy, oh man i'm really gonna miss you guys & i hope that we still do keep in touch in the future.
