Makcik : Adik apa you mahu makan?
Me : Ermm ada apa ?
Makcik : Ada macam macam... nasi goreng ada, KungFu Kui Tiao ada, mee hailam ada, nasi ayam, nasi ayam prabik .. dan macam macam lo....
You nak makan apa dik? Cuba lah Kung Fu Kui Teow
Me : Erm .... Best ke? Ok le .. I cuba le .. (without know what it is) But i guess that it is Hor Fun ...
Then after 30 mins waiting .. the makcik came with the the KUNG FU Kui Teow ....
Me : Oooooo ... ini ialah .. KONG FU keow teow.. hahaha (cantonese style)...
(Then in my mind is about Hokkien Noddles? hahahaha .. and wonder what it should call in Malay....)

CNY : Back to IPOH by Train
YEAHHHHH .. I just got my train ticket back to IPOH for this coming CNY....
It is a another new experience..
All the time I used to drive back and always stuck at the highway......
I remember there was once that I travel back around 3am in the morning .. Kiasu huh...
But still jam .... sigh .. this year I hope everything will goes well.
So this time I will just sit back, relax & enjoy a good movie (from my notebook) .....
or maybe get a Mc Value meals and enjoy some snacks during the journey..
Should be very exciting and fun ....
Besides that iI think my wife is more excited.. this is her first experience that she is taking a local train.....
Hopes everything goes well and no DELAY........
Price
It cost me RM68 for 2 persons with return ticket.
Actually for economy class is only RM12/person.
However the ticket for economy class from KL to Ipoh already finished and I had to get the first class ticket.
It cost RM22/person
Benefit :
Save up RM42
No hassle and no need to stuck in the traffic Jam
New experience for my wife....
Negative:
Cannot bring much luggage
Have to use dad car while in IPOH
Longer lead time about 3 hours instead of 2 hours by car... (but anyway if stuck in the traffic the lead time by car will be 4 hours) so it should be advantage......
Need to follow the departure time.
Might delay
Another applause to KTM is that they are doing online ticket purchase.
I purchase my ticket online and it was simple and easy....
Check it out the KTM website:-

Lion dance .... CNY mood
Last Sunday I passed by Chinatown (PJ Street) and the atmosphere there is very CNY feel.....
Loong Kee & Kiew Brothers are having Lion & Dragon dance...
I love to watch lion dance .. hahahaha
I just double park my car along the PJ street and snapped a few pictures....
Saw a gigantic Lion head ...
A lot of "Loh Ngoi" (Gwailo) were very excited to see the lion dance
There we cheering and clapping..
Besides that shops are start to sell "Kat Chai" Tree...
Last year I bought 2 "Kat Chai" trees .. now putting more fertilizer on the plants.
Hopefully it could bear more fruits.....
Yeah .. Chinese New Year is coming .......

Bus Services - Expensive & Unreliable
There is so many cases nowadays that the bus driver drive so recklessly and cause a lot of innocent life.
Yesterday I sent my mum to pudu raya bus station and she took a bus back to Ipoh....
Well I see that there are many changes here and there.....
Of course the biggest changes is the bus fare .....
I remember that bus fare is about RM11.30 and now it had shoot up to RM17.40....
Wow .. it really a big jump....
Besides that there are some bus operators do not provide any cost reduction to senior citizen....
Due to those deadly accident, my parents are shifting it to train services ....
Well of course the lead time is about 3 hours compare to bus service which is only 2 hours.
As our good tranport minister says that train services will be improve .. and lead time will be improve to 2 hours.....
Let keep it our finger cross .......
I was wonder .. without the double track line .. the lead time can be improve..
Why should the goverment build the double track?
Then it will be Train vs Bus services.....

My Mum Hello Kitty Crocs Shoes !!
Few days ago I brought my mum to SS2 Pasar malam .....
We pass by and saw a few stalls are selling Croc shoes..
My mum was interested and went to the stall to check it out..
She tried out a few pairs and asking me whether is nice or not?
Judging by her expression .. she seems that she wants to buy the shoes....
OK.... she try and ask my opinion...
She says that it was very light and nice to wear.....
Finally she decided that she wants to get a Hello Kitty Croc shoes...
Hahahaha ..... It cost RM20 ..kinda pricy for a pirated Croc shoes.....
For a nomal one it only cost about RM10....
It sure will cause a controversy when my 12 years old niece sees it during CNY....
Well.. I just pay the shoes.....and all I get is a "HAPPY MUM"

Cookies Warehouse Sales !!
I was at Alor Gajah yesterday for customer visit.
After that I brought my customer for lunch and one of them inform us that there is warehouse sales for Julies biscuit & cookies...... It is on every Friday and opens to everyone.
Hmm that is interesting and I know that there is a Julie factory at Alor Gajah.
So we went over there to check it out.
I asked why the Julie is having warehoue sales?
Is it due to the biscuit is going to expired soon, manufacuring default, over stock and so on?
I was so eager to find out the answer .........
When we arrive there, we say some poster saying .. Promosi Hebat.....
The cookies are cheap.. Average is about RM1~RM3 for those small boxes....
There is a lot of ppl buying the cookies and biscuits ...
Some even use carton box to put in the biscuit n cookies......
So u can imagine the qty that there are buying...
The first thing that I look at the cookies is the expired date..
July 2011...
Packaging ? OK .. brand new .. no manufacturing default...
Then I saw some staff is going inside the warehouse and get few new carton boxes to replenish the finishing stock.
Hmmm then other ideas come in my mind....
I am thinking that the maker is selling the biscuit at the retailer price..
Eg.
The retail price is RM 3 and we hypermarkets are selling RM 4...
The maker is selling the same price to the hypermarkets and to "us"..
So no loss for them..
In fact they have a few benefits:-
1) Payment is CASH term.. so no HUTANG 2 mths delay payment from hypermarkets
2) Save in transportation ... no need to deliver to hypermarkets
Too bad the population in ALor Gajah is not that big..
So not so many ppl come over and buy.
Furthermore .. not many ppl know about this warehouse sales...
I also join the crowd ..and bought 8 boxes ... and it only cost me RM16...
Good deal !!!
Mum was asking me .. for CNY?
Hmmm .. it is good idea though .. giving ppl Julie biscuit & cookies....
Then I can save some hamper fees.....

Wedding Dinner
Dec & Jan is the month of joy & celebrations..
So far I had attended 4 weddings and some of my friends had attended 8 wedding dinners in these 2 months...
There goes all the money for eating shark fins, baby pork, abalon and those good stuff..
Yesterday I had one wedding dinner at Sunway.
My parents came all over the way from ipoh to attend this wedding and I have no choice to attend together with them....
It was my so called cousin brother.... (the relationship was way toooo complicated).
There is one guy at our table and he tried to figure the connection with him and our family..
At last he managed that .... Good Job Mr. Chin .....
At first I am quite reluctant to attend this dinner.
1) Need to wear a suite n tie (of course you can wear T shirt n jeans but u will be the most astonishing person in the hall
2) It was on WEEKDAY and the place is at Sunway. It will be very traffic jam and the dinner start at 7.30pm...
Of course Malaysia Time ..... dinner shall start at 8.30pm .....
But my dad was very eager to reach there OT (on time). I had rush like hell....
Reach there and saw some of the old familiar faces (Grand aunties) and the rest is :-
Dad : this is 4th aunty, 5th aunties, there goes all the whole family chain..
Me : Hello aunty.. Hello Uncle... Happy New Year....
There are some great moments also... that I bump into my cousins (same age as I am).
It was good ..... at least can talk something...
What do you expect me to talk with my great aunties???
Oh ya the best part is one of my aunties are Australian.
I don't really recall her but she told me that she saw me when I was like 5 ..
Dang how do I remember her....
But one thing I remember that I had a picture with a "Gwailo" kid on the swing.....
She told me that she remember me and her son use to play with me ...... then it was DeJa Vu thing ....
Gee .. that eplain to me who is the "Gwailo" kid in my old photo album.....
It was interesting and I can solve some of the mystery person in my photo albums .. Hahahaha.....
Then it was all Grammy Award ceremony and it was full of emotion....
I thank God, mummy, daddy and all those ppl who help me .. & blah blah blah blah.......
I nearly doze off but luckily my wine glass was alwizz fill up by the waitress...
The dinner ended at 11.30pm .. and I was exhausted and my face was red .. hahaha
Got shower and slept at 1.00am
