now or never......

never too old to start something new....what ever you do. definitely will add some spice to your normal way of life routine :)

ming tien @ BU

went to a newly open food court near my home...well the place is not very new but its a new owner from ming tien (tmn megah) which now they had moved here. for those who didn't know the old ming tien foodcourt in tmn megah is closed down this year to make way for some mega project...im glad they moved so close to my home but not all the stalls originally from the old place are here. some moved to subang jaya so i heard. well it's a win win situation for me :)

im trap!

worst thing you can get during offshore is when you think you're about to leave back to onshore suddenly "Hey Andrew, there is no chopper for tomorrow flight and need to re-schedule again"...... nooooooooooozzzzzzzzzzz :`(

moments of silence

all life has a beginning and end...but some ended too quickly due to some unforeseen circumstances. it seems unfair when you think about it but what is fair and unfair when our life is so fragile and easily taken away at any time. the only fair thing is the moments/memories you remembered them how great or happy they are and treasure them in your heart......

coincidence

you know i always get this 4 digit number popup infront of me either somewhere in a book or from the clock or some random thing on the internet...it is always that same number...i know for fact that the number shows a date which is important to me...but that doesn't explain why it pop up every now and then? or just pure coincidence....

my little island

had a get away weekend last week...went to penang with my frenz, everything was nice except the thunderstorm happened on day 1 but it was getting better when we were there...had lots of food and booze but was a little disappointed that we couldnt spend more time there....the pix below are just part of what we ate on our 3days 2 nights trip...just part of it, believe me we had more then this but didn't get those photos on my mobile but im sure my frenz did :)

krazy weekend coming soon....

couldn't wait to get to penang next week! :) booze & food....and also going for a morning run along persiaran kapal singh would be awesomeee.....

dry noodle with egg + luncheon meat

cooked myself noodle with korean ham and egg yesterday morning breakfast...easy to cook, woke up at 0445hrs in the morning and took me 30mins to complete them. still got sometime left for me to shower and get ready for work before train starts at 0600hrs. of course i share this with my colleagues/friends, cant eat all of em....not sure if it tasted good for them but for me it is satisfying....

ingredients:
1. cintan noodles (comes with 10 pieces in a packet)
2. korean luncheon meat (i prefer korean)
3. white pepper
4. sesame oil
5. normal oil (cap knife..etc) for frying egg n luncheon meat. i re-use that to mix them with noodle
6. egg
7. lee kum kei oyster sauce (with scalop..goes well with noodle)
8. hak yau (dark thick caramel sauce)

free bike ride

having breakfast with colleagues/bros and we were talking about the oBike apps. didn't think much about it and we all downloaded the app. couple of registration and all set to go. after our breakfast we quickly head to the oBike parking area (just infront of our usual hangout breakfast place) and scan the QR code (using bluetooth to communicate with bike) and it will then unlocked the bike. registration was pretty simple straight forward. in the app there's this map where you can park your bike when you're done with it so in our case it is just nearby our office...the idea is good and yeah will definitely use it more often if i have the chance...pretty convenient to travel around in short distance. 

jap food.....it is that nice!

had a great lunch today, went for jap food at Senya Izakaya (Jln P.Ramlee)...had this pork with rice (bbq pork + egg) it's call hokkaido pork don with half boiled egg..the pork is fantastic, my first bite was like a feeling bring me back to life from dead, heaven, time has stopped, fireworks, rainbow, unicorn...exaggerated too much :) ... but for that 1.5sec or two for me time has stopped. i donno about you but it was pretty delicious pork. there are layers of fats in between and it melts in your mouth.....each bite you crave for mooorreee....

yes i'll go there again, and again and again and again...............maybe i'll try different thing next time but got to order the bbq poorrrkkkk....

check it out session part 1

was chilling at starbucks today with my friends during lunch and was talking about how you get drunk or whats your level of drunkenness? have you ever get so drunk that you just drop down n passed out? everyone talk about their own experiences (back then when we was once young)...."tonight, we are young, set the world on fire, make it brighter!" that song just come out from my mind (by FUN group)....

anywayz there is once i was almost knocked out, very high and so drunk....but did not pass out....lots of alcohol (JD, champagne, wine, beer.........) i was so drunk that i can't even unlock my own mobile pass code...the night was pretty awesome and everyone was having a great time..all this was happening in a house. pretty sure we didnt disturb the neighbors....after that night (some weeks later....) we decided to have another round...this time we do it in penang (also cari cari makan) yeah!

weight lost

it's been 6 mths since i started to trim down my weight...cut off loads of carbs (sometimes curi x2 makan :))...exercise by doing running, nothing extreme...just 3km ++ twice a week sometimes once..20 mins run, a little weight lifting nothing extreme... result i lost 13kg...it's a slow process but it works for me..

i also look up to some youtube vids for exercise that you can do at home..which pretty convenient for me..i don't have the luxurious to go gym twice a week (even i wanted to) or some sports i would like to do on weekends...home workout is the best i got right now..search on youtube there are tons of workout you can find..

spicy ramen noodle

tried the spicy noodle from south korea. open the container inside you'll find 2 mall package (sauce & seaweed with sesame seed. u got to have some greens). packaging looks nice with comic drawing of a hen and some Korean writing. it tasted good, the spicy part is not too bad either, felt like a dentist giving you injection to your gum.....if you can withstand that i guess you don't have a problem with this... :)

Ok anyone had instant noodle before should know how to cook it...but for those who doesn't here are the steps :

1. peel off the top cover about 1/3 of the way (don't peel it all off)
2. take out the packages inside
3. pout hot water till covers the noodles (boiling prefer) for 5mins
4. close back the cover so to prevent heat getting out
6. after 5mins pour all hot water out (peel off the cover)
7.  mix the 2 package into the soft springy noodle

drawing....

there was a time i learned how to draw, love arts and crafts...after form 5 i wasn't pretty sure what i'm suppose to do..i had no ambition at that time 😓... well went to few places (college) check out their facilities and see whats interest me..at the end i suppose i wanted to go into GD (graphic design), well it is some form of art (i think). long story short, 6 months there and out to computer studies....and that's where my naturally inspirited art left me...it is no longer in my soul...

fwd to present....

i suppose my love of drawing slowly crawling back from the pit of darkness i dumped more than 2 decade ago. it is a way to relax my mind and soul...i'll get very inspirational the more i do it...felt good. when i put my drawing behind me the last time, i always had this perspective way of looking at things or imagining it differently in art form sub-consciously...my love of drawing didn't left me completely it was there with me the whole time. i was suppressing it the whole time....

got to know a colleague pass away this morning :( pretty sad... RIP DG

u r my sunshine

mother nature best art work..

fly me to the moon....

can't be more excited today...after 14days offshore and you get back home just in time for my daughter bd (it's today!). timing is so right :)

worklife

so many problems so little time...this is what i had been seeing all the time here during offshore..the amount of pressure, responsibility, people management...etc it is sooo much chaotic. how many things you can do in a day? and on top of that, safety is a priority..,salute all these people working tirelessly to accomplish the target.

whoever says working offshore is like a holiday or there is nothing to do, you will be getting a finger...but mostly i'll just keep quiet and smile :) ...

eat what you can

most malaysian eat maggi noodles but when you come to a place where food isn't what you like or expected, i can tell you maggi mee is your next favorite dish out there..but you can't eat the noodles all the time (it's unhealthy), sometimes you have to be creative on your food picking..had corn beef with kimchi spread with butter on a toast bread, shit i like it!

mr.pringles

ran out of happy snack food today...need mr.pringles back...

hairy style...

thinking of cutting all my hair out, but not totally shave all..there will be still some hair though

i do not own this picture

mr.pringles

while i'm at offshore busy bursting my stamina with all issues or tasks, i always had mr.pringles with me thru bad or good times :) having mr.pringles, gives me another day to survive.....

ipoh lai lai

here i come ipoh...hmmm will visit most of the "makan" places while i'm there. should i go kampung kacang puteh? sooo many places sooo little time....

too much?

kimchi with bratwurts sausage....hmmmm

smoke get in your eyes...
