Update of the Week

WTF 1337!!!

Wtf1337

Yes, there’s a P (probation) sticker on my leet machine. Kim Yoong got his drivers license last Thursday.

Saturday Off

There was major road construction going on at Jalan Kepong and power was required to be shut down at that area. That being done, it also affects the surrounding areas which includes our factory as well. Since we were informed of power interruptions, we closed for a day.

That leaves me ample of time to spend with my Sweetheart. We went to Digital Mall to look for a wireless router and webcam but in the end didn’t buy anything because I was having second thoughts on weather or not I really need the router.

Later that day, we had lunch at Pizza Hut. We ordered the specials some Italian themed set meal. Pizza is already an Italian dish, I don’t see why is the new Italian theme any special other then the Italian flag decorating the restaurant. Not ranting, the food is not a disappointment if you are not a fussy person.

AAHHHHhhhhhhhhhhh…………….

With another half a day to spend, we went to Niu Zhe Xui for some window shopping and we came across this at the center court.

Pettingpen

Rabbits!

Petnfeed

Zoomed.

3 bucks for that small tray of rabbit feed is expensive, but since there’s no time limitation on how long a person can stay in the pen to pet and feed the rabbit, it’s not that expensive either, After all, the main attraction is to interact with the rabbits. Plus the rabbits doesn’t have the appetite of a hamsters, so force feeding the rabbits will take some effort.

Petkid

Someone’s child feeding the rabbits.
We stood there for a good 5 minutes taking many shots of people’s children feeding and chasing rabbits around the pen.

Later in the evening I washed my Neo (which was never washed for three weeks!!!) and did a secret mod to the stock intake.

Sared

Scratched myself while working on the intake. I’ve forgotten how sharp some parts of the engine bay can be.

SUNDAY!!!

Like the previous Sunday, we went to One Utama for lunch, movies, and some shopping. Since the movie was at 2.10pm, I brought Sweetheart shopping first, before joining Kim Yoong and Albert for lunch at My News Cafe.

Newscafe1

At the cafe, Kim Yoong prepared to order lunch.
I should left the place the moment the waiter told us that all the grill items were not available because the grill in their kitchen was broken. I really wanted to try the combo grill. Instead of finding another restaurant which has a working grill, I changed my order to something else which doesn’t require grilling.

Newscafe2

My News Cafe special fried rice. It looks better then it tasted. For a signature dish, it’s a real letdown. The prawns, although big aren’t fresh. It’s not springy when chewed but rather mash between the teeth. The fried rice though looked good, it lack taste and the sambal belacan that comes with the rice was not spicy at all because it was watered down. At least they did not mess up the egg. And the chicken wing actually tasted really good. I was expecting allot from a cafe that has a steady number of customers and at times, full.


This week we watched Street Kings staring Keanu Reeves, who played that “No, what if I fail” character from Matrix. Presentation wise, it’s really enjoyable. Surprisingly good acting from Keanu Reeves, unlike the Matrix 2 and 3. Plenty of action too, from gunfights to chasing bad guys through a sub urban housing area who in the end was caught in barbed wire, OUCH!. The same old thing recycled again from other cop movies like SWAT (except for the barbed wire part, liked that scene, really). I didn’t mind that because it has been quite some time since I last watch a cop movie. But what I really do mind is the predictable story line with a very predictable plot on vengence and striking back against his own police unit. It some how reminds me of Infernal Affairs (original Hong Kong version) where bad cop try to come out clean.

I left the cinema somewhat mellow. There’s nothing much to talk about the movie other then being fucking censored by the fucking censorship board for cutting off every fucking cuss word which caused many many inconsistency in the movie. This movie is already rated 18, so why the fuck censor them? Oddly enough, the really violent scene like getting shot full of holes with blood spraying all over the room was spared but cuss words like fuck were removed from the movie with extreme prejudice. IF the censorship board has cleverly removed them without spoiling the movie with interrupted dialog, I would’ve probably forgiven them. But No, bloody armatures are wasting tax payers money. The censorship board of Malaysia is to be blamed for the blooming piracy activity in this country. I feel more robbed from the censorship board mutilating the movie then feeling angry at the movie for robbing my RM10 and 2 hours for a mediocre show.

Next Week….
