Happy Merdeka, Malaysia


Malaysia,a country which is made up of three kinds of race include Malays,Chinese and Indians whom they are come from different culture and background can be described as a bowl of rice.Here is a poem that i want to share with all of you:

"Oh rice,tell us how do you get on so well with everyone?
One moment you're mingling with a fiery mutton varuval.The next,you're with slices of succulent Ipoh chicken.
And every morning,you never miss meeting up with ikan bilis,sambal and egg for breakfast.
Even at our big celebrations,you are always there celebrating right along with us.
For Raya, you join your friends to bring us ketupat and lemang.
Deepavali wouldn't be the same if you didn't put on your brightest colours to make the kolam.
And every chinese new year's eve,you help to bring home family from far and wide.
As for Gawai and Kaamatan,you're the reason everyone is celebrating!
Perhaps your secret is that you don't choose - it doesn't matter if we use chopsticks,fork and spoons,or hands.You're just happy to share a meal with us.
Today,as we sit down to share a meal with our families,we'll be thinking of just how blessed the last 53 years have been.
And you'll be right there reminding us,once again,about the true secret of our country.
That we all share 1 rice bowl - the one filled,grain by grain,by the sacrifice,hard work and unity of those who came before us.
And we all share 1 responsibility - to continue filling it,together,for those who will come after."

Extracted from the advertisement of Maybank

In conjunction with the 53rd anniversary of National Day celebration,i would like to hope that all Malaysians embrace 1 Malaysia concept and alleviate any racial and religious prejudice and also to work together to create the better of Malaysia.

Last but not least,let me wish all malaysians
"Happy Merdeka"

One Day Trip to Sungai Wang and Pavilion


On Saturday,after I,together with my friend(Chen Pui)attended Mathematics tuition,we usually walked leisurely to the LRT station and headed towards Bukit Jalil station.However,on the contrary,yesterday we rushed to the LRT station just after the maths tuition and straightly took train to Hang Tuah station.Why Hang Tuah?This is because WE had an appointment with Syn Yee and Zhen Ee and had planned to meet there.
Our first destination was Sungai Wang.Since the road to there was some distance away,we decided to took monorail.When we reached the monorail station,we found out that the monorail was packed with capacity.This the reason why we missed the first and second turn of boarding it.By third turn,without concerned whether it was full or not,we still squeeze into it.Poor chen pui,we could not even saw her during the way to bukit bintang station until we reached the destination.We felt relieved after we left it.
Our main purpose to Sungai wang was to take some photos with syn yee since we(zhen ee,chen pui and i) had anticipated this weekend about last two weeks.We searched the almost the entire floor and climb up the stairs many times but we failed to find the shop which was operated on photo.Lastly,we appealed to a staff and found out that it was closed down.So dissappointed we felt >_<. On the other hand,we successfully found out a restaurant namely "T-bowl"which is a toilet bowl concept restaurant.It was totally full of toilet theme decorations.This was the first time we sat on toilet bowls with different patterns until we kept take photos of the designs. We had selected the same types of meal that was cheesey baked rice but with different flavour on it. For zhen ee and chen pui,they had selected cheesey baked rice with chicken chop.
For me,i had selected cheesey baked rice with tuna and crab meat.
Last but not least,syn yee had picked a cheesey baked rice with curry ball prawn.
About drink, chen pui's one was the most unique.
Yeah,we (syn yee and i)manage to finish the whole bowl of rice but left only zhen ee and chen pui because the cheesey rice made our stomach so full......(>-After sat there about one hour,we decided to take a walk on Pavilion.We took a look on some shops between 2pm till 4pm.Finally,we decided to take a seat at Donut's shop since we were so tired.We (except me) played with their handphones and at the same time,we managed to capture some nice photos.
By 5.30pm,we decided to return home.zhen ee and syn yee had bought some donuts home except chen pui and me.However, i was really had a great time with all of my friends although it was quite a tiring trip.Hope i can have such a great time with all of them next time.
