| | And, what now...
... Took me quite a while before I could actually 'tell' my fingers to start typing. I was quite engrossed with what has happened since my last entry; alot indeed. Before I go on with my own mambo-jumbos, if there are any frequent visitors I'd like to humbly apologise for the long delay.
Surprise the Confused
There are alot of things I'd like to remember by, in the next 50 years or so, and of the numerous events that took place in my life since my last entry till of now, is that I kinda flunked in surprising Shawn. Tsk tsk  ... I've always wanted to return the favour to the CCx2, they were like there at KLIA picking me up at the airport by surprise. In short, I was thrilled, and shocked by the surprise of course; and for that I've always remembered that day. If any of the CCx2 members are reading this, I thank ya'll for that day it was a good memory. So anyways, yeah... I found out Shawn will be back for good out of his wondrous Military Training Camp, and I was rather eager to repay him; I was in his debt in that matter. I can't say it was like this covert-op kinda planning and all, and I did not intend to make it like this huge-ass fiesta to have this "Welcome Back, Shawn!" party. All i wanted to do was just have his friends over at his uber cool house welcoming him home. I have to say, I rather think I was the wrong person in charge of the occasion, because I am rather oblivious to Shawn's friends. I mean its party where all Shawn's friends are invited. The only people I managed to get hold of was the CCx2 and other Sungai Long-ian friends of his. At the end of it, it did not quite turn out to be a surprise party, Shawn was more confused to see our faces  . It was good, I was thankful it at least turned out to be a gathering. There were plenty of food and beverages. So yeah kinda late, but Welcome Back, Shawn =]
Max Brenner [at] Singapore
Finally, I was able to get down to Max Brenner in Singapore to actually patronize the store. According to multiple blogs, there were less favourable comments regarding the service. I found the chocolate cafe at Esplanade, in one of the corners. I was eager to try it out and experience the differences between the one in Melbourne and the one in Singapore. I've gotta say, I disagree with the blogs which lack positive feed back regarding their experience in Max Brenner. It was fairly good, maybe it wasn't peak hours but still the service were quite prompt. I expected the chocolate fondue to be small, but it turned out to be a full meal for both me and my Sister. I have nothing to complain about, in fact it was fairly good.
Aside from patronizing at Max Brenner in Singapore, I was on a vacation exploring a little on my own with my Sister. And I thought it to be very warm in Malaysia, but it was HOT and I could not really tolerate the heat at Singapore. The malls were my salvation... away from the searing hot air outside. I was there long enough to figure out that I was fortunate I do not live there. That aside, I ventured into their China Town, had a ride on the cable car to have a good view around, oh and also it was first time watching Indonesian channel. I was rather bored during the nights in the hotel room, the gym, swimming pool, massage parlour, and the spa center were all closed. It was entertaining, having said the commercials were good and creative, even though I could only ake out 30% of what they were all saying. Dad was like all "I-Know-Where-to-Get-Good-Food", mainly seafood, seafood, and seafood... and more seafood. Oh! And I was able to get my hands on the CDs at HMV that I've been looking all over K.L. for; Daft Punk's Discovery and the OST for the Devil Wears Prada. These 2 CDs will fill my "Tersayang" IPOD with more Lounge and Electornica/House music! =D
Movies after movies after movies...
There seem to have alot of notable films screening this year which include Spidermen III, Fantastic 4 (II), Ocean's 13, Pirates of the Carribean; To World's End, Shrek 3, Transformers, Harry Porter; Order of the Phoenix, Resident Evil; Extinction, and many more couuntless movies. Everyweek, especially on Friday nights, its a movie day every week. And since theres TGV about 10 minutes drive from my house, theres no reason not to watch anticipated movies on the big screen. Firstly Spidermen III was better than the previous, the plot was has more depth, well it wasn't a great movie but what can we expect of a Super Hero movie? Fantastic 4 was a bum, only watched it because Jessica Alba was acting in it. Ocean's 13 was good, but wasn't necessary to watch it on big screen. Oh and Noureen DeWulf, the hottie was in it =P . Pirates for short, was breath taking, epic, humourous, and not to mention Kaira Knightly is still hot in grease, dirt and sand =D. Shrek 3? One word, hillarious. Never in my life did I laugh so much in the cinemas ( Terminator 3; I laughed so hard tears were rolling down my cheeks ). Transformers, I am a fan 'course I'll give ya biased comments =P . Loved the new design of the robots and Megan Fox is something that I couldn't take my eyes off especially when she openend Bumblebee's bonet for inspection =D.Watched Harry Porter with Victor and the CCx2, I'm not a fan but the movie was OKAY, just like the book. I just can't wait to watch the hot super model Milla Jovovich running over mindless zombies and emptying her mags on some weird bio-engineered organism in the coming Resident Evil; Extinction. I wonder how would the singer Ashanti fair in her fourth film =].
My cravings for Starbucks Hazelnut Hot Chocolate
I've had one Grande and a Tall this week and still my cravings are not satiated. I had one while I was out buying tickets for Harry Porter and accompanying Shawn to fix his "beloved" (reffer to his blog). Then the next one was just 2 days after that, when I was watching Harry Porter with CCx2 and Victor. It's not an awesome drink, but its a great drink for chocolate lovers. I love how there's this pinch of hazelnut-tish tinge to it which gives it a much creamier taste to the sinful drink >.<. Topped with whipped cream, its heaven! And it's cheap, its not like some vintage drink at some 5 star hotel, and its worth what I pay for. Maaaannn, here I am writing about my cravings, and now I'm really tempted getting one "to-go". >.<
Books after books
... I'm looking at the piles of books/novels/journals in my shelf =.=;;; . Not to mention sis keeps adding to my collection journals and textbooks... From Writing a Convincing Business Plan to Anyone Can Do It; Building Coffee Republic From Our Kitchen Table . On top of that, Vinci's Warcraft's novels are pilling all over my bed. There isn't enough time to get all the readings done, but I doubt I have even if I'm on my weekend break from the working life. But I'm quite proud of myself, I'm about to read the grand battle between the 5 Legendary Dragons/Aspects for the Day of the Dragon. I've been trying to find time to read in between of my waiting time in any task in life; waiting for a webpage to load on screen, a ride in the passenger seat, in a really bad stagnant traffic jam, doing my business in the toilet, and other countless "lag processes". I've been very captivated by the story/history in the book and I've been able to slowly grasp the whole picture of Azeroth and it's events.
Sukuran!
So, my Sis's boyfriend placed a DVD right next to me, when I was WoW-ing. Being the curious LeFa, I promptly inserted the DVD hoping to see beautiful Latinas in their bikinis, running around the beach, giggling. to my dismay, it had high school girls in it instead. Eyes bigger than a normal human being would have, with comedic figures and colourful sceneries; an anime with the huge headings flashing "School Rumble". ( LeFa's note : - Lol it was just a figure of writing, I don't own any perverted DVDs. I SWEAR! =X But latinas are still TEH hot! =D ) . I remember watching the 1st Term a year ago, and now I've been hooked on to my new HP Laptop watching them all the 2nd Term. The humour gets better and better the longer I watch. I was practically laughing and cringing at the numbing pain on both my cheeks. It isn't some ordinary "Love Triangle" anime, it has alot of twist in the plot that makes it superfunny-fied (if there is such a word). And this reminds me, to look for some playable video player. The last episode seems unable to be played on Windows Media Player. *Grumble*
I'm too exhausted to continue on my mambo-jumbos. And what I need right now is some good foreplay and a warm Hazelnut Hot Chocolate "to-go" from Starbucks =]. Till next time.
