now what?!

Errm this is gonna sound stupid funny. Its been almost 2 years since I sold off my piano black Sony Playstation Portable (PSP) due to financial reasons. Soon after that I invested in a Nintendo DS Lite and never looked back. I have been playing with it over and over. It accompanies me when I travel, when I visit the throne or whenever I got time to kill.

Recently however I started researching about Sony PSP and how far it has come. Some of you might be aware that Sony released a slimmer and lighter version called Sony PSP Slim & Lite. It does have a few upgrades like video-out function, faster load times, nicer colors as well as a handful of firmware based upgrades like Skype, GPS and camera add on capabilities. On top of that they are packed with games that I wished I played on PS2 but didn't have the time.

With that I started getting itchy again especially after selling off my PS2 on Thursday and so this afternoon I headed down to Gamers Solution at City Bazaar, KL and got my hands on a brand new Felicia Blue (Blume Series) Sony PSP Slim. :D


Damn the games are awesome! I know I know. You guys would be wondering what next?! LOL. G'nite folks.

again?!

LOL. You guys ain't gonna believe this. I just sold off my Sony PS2 which I was ranting about just barely 3 months ago. Just like before I didn't have the time to play it. All I managed in 3 months were a meagre 4 times! :(

glory glory man united!

Throughout last week there were talk about how Gerrard and Torres were gonna show the Red Devils a thing or two. Sadly though it was our boys who showed the Kop how football is played.

We were all over the place. Great performances from the whole team. There should have been more goals (as usual) but am happy with the 3 goal drubbing. Of the 3, was really impressed by Nani's goal. He created space for himself and blasted in a nice shot. Reina was left dumbfounded. ROTFLOL.

Now we are 5 points clear on top. Hope the boys can keep this tempo up for the remainder of the season. Practically every game is crucial with Chelsea hot on our heels. Kudos guys and thanks for putting a BIG SMILE on my face. :D

restoran famous seremban favourites...

I'm a fan of all things pork. So when I read about this place that serves lovely char siew (barbequed pork) so near my home, I couldn't help but get my butt over there to give it a try.

One afternoon, Sunshine and I took a drive to Sunway Mas in search of this place. Luckily being rather familiar with the area, I found Restoran Famous Seremban Favourites without much fuss. Would advise most to study the map below before heading out to this place as to not get disappointed.

As expected the first thing on my mind was to get some juicy char siew. Ordered us a medium plate (RM10) of lean meat and waited patiently for it to arrive. Within' moments it came with the sauce on the side, which is a good thing as at times the sauce can be very overpowering. At least this way we can control it to our liking.

The verdict? Well I thought the char siew was heavenly but Sunshine thought otherwise. She prefers it to be lean and tough while I loved how 'melt in your mouth' it was. I would have to agree with most floggers that this would be the best char siew in town, for me at least. We were there rather late (3pm) so no siew yoke (roast pork) for me to savour, which I heard is just as good. Guess its reason to drop by again soon huh! Hehe.

For my main meal I decided to try their Hakka Mee (RM3). A very simple noodle dish with colorless gravy and minced meat. It may look dull but never trust a book by its cover. The broad noodles as well as the seasoned minced pork works well together and topped with pickled green chilis is a definate winner!

Sunshine wasn't keen on most of the noodles on offer so she settled with the safe bet of Wantan Mee (RM3). Sadly though it must have been the worst wantan mee we've had in a long time. I would definately advise you guys to stay away from it. The noodles wasn't springy and the sauce was bleh. It was so bad Sunshine barely ate half of it. :(

All in all it apart from the wantan mee, this place looks promising. Wide variety of food as well as heavenly char siew. Would definately visit again least for the yummy porky goodness. For more reviews on this place you can check out the floggers below.

back on top...

Finally the Red Devils are back where they belong. Sadly only after a tiring match against stubborn Derby County. Would have been nicer if we slotted in more goals but I'll take the win anyways. Great to see Arsenal drawing against Middlesbrough and giving us the lead with 1 game in hand. As long as we whoop Bolton on Wednesday we should be happy campers up top. :D

Ben Foster had a great debut providing some crucial saves. Hope he gets more play and will soon be ready to fill in the Number 1 spot. Would pick him over Tomasz Kuszczak any day. Hope Fergie doesn't sell or loan him off next season.

Starting to get worried at how the boys are playing. Tonnes of chances but not many goals. Not getting a striker in January seems to be haunting us. If only Saha won't get injured all the time. He can't even step out on the field without hurting himself. Sigh.

They have to get their act together especially with the draw against Roma for the Champions League quaterfinals. Am sure they are dying to revenge the 7 - 1 drubbing last season. Only time will tell I guess.

tank updates...

As promised pictures of my tank below. Just added 4 Cherry Barbs yesterday bringing the total to 7. Happy to see all of em' swimming about.

While they were chowing down I manage to count my shrimps and got a total of 24. Not bad considering I had 12 to start with. Looks like many of the shrimplets survived. :D


Think I gotta add more plants. Not really sure what type though. At times also afraid as plants need a lot of care. Only ones I can consider are hardy ones which don't need CO2 or fertilisers. Gotta research more I guess. Time to head to work. Adios.

some yokes...

Got a couple of SMSes below this mornin'. Check them out.

+++++

BREAKING NEWS. Samy Vellu, Palanivel, Komala, Vickneswaran, Sothinathan, Rajagopalu, etc are forming a new party called FBI. "Fucked by Indians" party.

+++++

My friend is looking for a job. His education background is not that strong. He has been working with M'sian government for more than 30 years. His name is Samy Vellu, As an Indian, please help him...

+++++

Funny stuff I tell ya. Was cracking up when I got it. ROTFLOL.

another surprise...

Damn another surprise. This seems to be getting better and better as the hours go by. The Opposition has managed to stop Barisan Nasional from getting a 2/3 majority at the Parliament. The people have finally spoken and a new change is on the horizon.

Hopefully this will stop all the corruption and bullshit we have been forced to swallow all these years.

MAKKAL SAKTHI!

great news!

OMFG! The best news I've heard of the 12th Malaysian General Elections. The 'great' Samy 'I'm the only Indian that matters' Vellu has finally been dethroned. After 28 years of utter bullshit and lies the longest serving Cabinet Minister is outta here. Woo Hoo! Rejoice Malaysian Indians everywhere.

Bye Bye Datuk Seri and don't let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya! :D

bye bye treble...

What a sad night. The Red Devils were kicked out of the FA Cup by Pompey. There goes the dream of repeating the treble. The boys controlled majority of the game but sadly it just wasn't their day. To top it off the referee, Martin Atkinson made some terrible calls and seemed to have sided Portsmouth which gave them an undeserved win.

Anyways at the end of the day, that is how the game is played and a loss is still a loss. Now all the boys can do is pick themselves up and concentrate on the double, EPL and UEFA Champions League. On a side note it was great to see Barnsley perform an historic win over Chelsea. The FA Cup is truly a cup of dreams where lower division teams get to rise above the occasion. Till next time.

tough fight...

Phew. After one hellave struggle we are into the quater-finals of the Champions League. Many thought it would be a walk in the park for the Red Devils playing at home but Lyon put up a great fight especially in the 2nd half.

Lots of tense moments towards the end of the game especially with United giving the ball away too often and at times caught back peddling. The boys just wasn't themselves. Very thankful for the wonderful goal by Ronaldo. Great shot from a tight angle.


On a side note, kudos to Arsenal for a wonderful performance against AC Milan in San Siro. I was sure they would be knocked out by the European kings but the youngsters of Arsenal really proved everyone wrong.

Now its time for the quarter-finals. Wouldn't be surprised we get paired with a Premiership team. No matter who it is, bring it on! :D

time for a change...

As all of you are aware its time for Malaysia's 12th General Election. This particular round am sure majority of Malaysians are gonna stand up and decide on our country's future. Especially the younger generation who is fed up with the current state of our beloved nation.

To be honest my procrastination got the better of me. I failed to register in time and so won't be eligible to vote this year. As it gets closer to 8th of March 2008, I'm getting more and more pissed as my laziness has prevented me from voting for a change. My wish is that Barisan won't get a 2/3 majority.

I hope come this Saturday, those of you who are eligible would head down and put in your votes. Not really concerned on who you vote for but please think wisely before choosing any candidate. Make it count.

Vote for a change!

it was so close...

Damn it was so freaking close! United were on their way to the top of the league before Bendtner struck in a crucial last second goal. Arrrggh. Lucky Gunners.

On a plus note least we walked away from Craven Cottage with 3 points and a clean sheet. Good to see Hargreaves and Park Ji-Sung on the score sheet.

Fergie also managed to rest some stars. Least they'll be fired up for the 2nd leg game against Lyon on Tuesday. That should be a very hot match especially when both sides have their eyes on the Champions League trophy this year. Keep up the good work boys.
