Happy 09/09/09 9:09AM…

De Ja Vu! It is like we are having the so many once in a lifetime date, the last one was 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 incident… A meteor shower that happens like once in a decade, forgotten what’s it’s name… Earth and Mars comes the closest this year + Venus, Earth and Mars aligned in a single line…

It’s hell of a year!

We have been busy around August and September could not make it to blog as much as we usually do. Plus I’m working from Monday to Saturday. I have almost no time to rest so yea, will try to blog as soon as we have tiny little bitty of time…

Stay Tuned!

Cheers

Catfish

PW is back…

This post is dedicated to Mr.Small Gas aka Catfish who is currently on a blogging strike.

Last weekend out of a sudden, he make an announcement to me. He declared that he won’t blog until I start blogging again. gulp~  

So evil of him! Depriving all his loyal reader of interesting long gas blog posts..
Bad Catfish..

I got solid reason why I stop blogging K. Laziness is one of them and it is a damn good reason too I must say. Agree? OK OK.. My bad.. Don’t throw shoes at me.

 

Actually, poor Catfish here have tried countless way of motivating me to start blogging again.

He tried the more gentle way of encouragement where he actually gather feedback from people and relay it back to me individually.. But in doing so, he starts to feel less loved by you guys and he actually sulked to me. hahhaha.. You guys please give him deserved praising and comments as well.. Terima Kasih banyak banyak.

he tried scolding.. (he better be careful with this)

he tried tickling.. but I’m not scared of tickle.. In fact, he’s the one who are running round the room. (I only have one spot of weakness and I’m definitely not revealing it to you here.. hehehe)

He tried ignoring me the whole night thinking I’ll be bored and will start blogging. So fail.. I got so many drama to watch, lots of books to read, manga chapters to catch up with, restaurant to build… etc etc..

And finally The Blogging Strike… He’s being very determined! Normally I can manja my way out of anything with him but he’s being very serious this time. I tried one last depressed card today and he finally soften down. He say he’ll blog.

But to not lose face, he told me that I have to blog at least one sentence. I was planning to be mean and blog only one sentence but I started feeling guilty for abandoning Nibble of Thought to Catfish alone. This is suppose to be a joint effort.

So people, do visit more often as we’ll start our blogging mode again.

 

Happy to be back,

PW..

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

How cool is that:

12:34:56 on 07 08 09

I might have missed the timing for a few seconds…

And what’s more…

It was so coincident that I was listening to Plain White T’s 1 2 3 4…

Spooky…

Do Not Eat!!

After so many food posting, are you expecting another review of a restaurant? And judging from the title, it’s should be Bad Bad Bad..

Truth is…

One fine day, Catfish came home from office and ask me to go search for hidden treasure from his work bag.

Dig, dig, dig…

After much digging, I found this!!

What’s this you say?

It’s a wooden penis! There’re Big one, Medium one and Smaller one.. Which do you think suits you? hehehe..

I’ve seen a couple of this.. WTF!!

No la.. It’s actually all very innocent… The big one is a Bottle Opener and the smaller ones are Key Chain.

These seem to be a very popular souvenir from Bali recently.

Because we are responsible blogger and this blog is PG-18SX, Catfish had come up with this advisory label.. hahahha..

 

Amused,

PW

Happy Dumpling Day 端午节

Have you guys eaten your zhong today? Every year by hook or by crook regardless of the busy schedule, my family will try to make some dumplings. So every year this time, I’ll definitely get to munch all these, yum yum slurp~:

Dumplings festival also known as  Double Fifth Festival as it falls on the fifth day of the fifth month. What happened on that day? Hahah… This is what I remembered from my young time: (very vague, Don’t sue me for discrepancy)

It all started way back in one of the China Dynasty, I think it is the Zhou Dynasty. As usual in all story, we have the good guy and the bad guy. The smart scholar is the good guy but the king only listen to the bad guy. After countless “nyap,nyap,nyap” the King felt annoyed and throw him out of the palace. Finally, the unfortunate really has happened, the scholar blamed himself for the country invasion and try to cover it’s ka-cheng by jumping into a river full of piranha (<—heheh made it up) on the fifth day of the fifth month. The villagers there who admired and respected him, try to search for his body but their effort was futile. They came up with a funny idea by making dumplings to throw into the river to feed the fish so the scholar’s body will be left untouched. At the same time, the fierce looking dragon boat was made to scare fishes away from eating the body. ROar!

If you are lazy to read my long gas story… This is how PW simplified it. (Catfish: keng leh with paint only leh):

Just keep swimming, keep swimming, swimming

We were having lunch 2 days ago at office Canteen. As usual, not much choice around the mixed rice corner so majority of us settled for the so called “special” corner, menu of the day: Wantan Mee. Some were chatting and some were busy trying to finish up their dishes in less than 30 min. Suddenly, Foo (aka Zhaun) shrieked:

“Oh my F***ing GOD!!! There is a WORM in my Wantan Mee!!!”

Foo had more than half of his share. Everyone was distracted from their busy eating and said “It’s not WORM it is a baby cockroach la…”. Shook Yee and me ended up snapping like paparazzi and my photos turns out as if the cockroach was diving for a swim :

Just Keep Swimming

Just keep swimming

Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming … Dead~

After hard persuasion, Foo reluctantly brought it to Aunty to get a refund. Aunty was so scared and apologize tons of time and refunded. If we ever report this, canteen can get very serious actions which include change of canteen management.

Well, result was Foo did not get any stomach ache at all. Foo consume more protein compared to all of us…

 

Disgusted,

--Catfish--

Spooky~

Mr.Catfish and I were on the way to SS2 for a Korean dinner with a few of my high school best friends. We were already late for the 8pm appointment because Catfish was stuck in a meeting earlier. After picking me up, he was trying to think of the the fastest way to reach SS2 and he decided to use Seremban highway going into Federal Highway.

Along our journey there the road was initially very busy with cars zooming left right but right after we passed Nirvana Memorial Centre we realize the road become suspiciously quiet with the nearest car is some distance away. This continue for quite sometime and the other cars seem to be keeping a constant distance between us. Out of a sudden, at the bend turning into Desa Water park City, Sunny Boy swerve to the left.

I turn to look at Catfish expecting an explanation to his sudden movement and with his face white he said to me that from the rearview mirror he saw a pair of green eyes looking at us from the backseat. By that time both our hearts stop. He ask me to turn around, take a look and confirm what he saw.  I suddenly thought of all the horror movie in the car where the ‘thing’ will jump on you the moment you turn back and look. So of course I refuse to do it and instead decided to use the camera since I already had it on my hand.  Picture posted below. Please only scroll down if you are sure you can take it.**

Still don’t know what is it? Take a good look here. It’s actually Mr.Big Thing Elephant.

He’s hanging around thanks to Mr.Helmut and Goh.

Sigh, after the big scare and difficulty in getting a place to park Sunny Boy, we reach the Seo Gung Korean Restaurant to see this. Can’t blame them though, we are almost an hour late.

We ordered Dolsot Bibimbap which was quite good, haha maybe we are just hungry!!!

BBQ pork slice with spicy sauce. It was well marinated and the spicy sauce provided was excellent.

Restaurant Seo Gung
Ambience: 4/5 nibbles
Cleanliness: 5/5 nibbles (especially the toilet!)
Food: 2.5/5 nibbles (we have ate much better ones)

 

 

After dinner, we proceed to KTZ. Look at us studying the menu so intently while Catfish canwhoring there.

We ordered Tong Yuen which cost RM1.20 per piece and a Mango Loh Loh.

We are quite disappointed with Tong Yuen and Loh Loh after we have heard so much about their reputation.

It was indeed a fun and spooky evening. After so long of not seeing you girls, I miss everyone so much and can’t wait for the next meeting which is tomorrow. hehehehe…

 

Restaurant Kei Tak Sek
Ratings: 2.5/5 nibbles

 

Spooked Out,

**Disclaimer: The spooky story above is somewhat exaggerated. Please forgive my crappiness.

Welcome Amanda!!!

Congratulation

Pin Ying and Kelvin…

 

Everyone, say Hello to Amanda.

May you have a wonderful journey ahead of you.

It’s not ME

It’s been ages since I tasted Maltese. Lavender bought one new tub of Maltese early morning to share with us. It was FULL at around 10am and by 2.21pm:

Thank you Qiong Go and Lavender so much!!!

 

On another occasion, we (my colleagues) were all jaw dropped at the sight of this:

Lavender and Helmut/Hew was defeated badly… It’s time to change…

 

PS: I have made some update at the end of “It’s not birthday without cake” Ying Yie’s B’day post.

Angry and Sad ‘Sun’ issueS

ITS GONE!!! GONE!!! GONE!!!

It’s really annoying when foods that I bought intended to be eaten by only me always just ‘poff’ gone into mist. Just like a murderer leaving no evidence left behind.

2 days back my colleague, Wong, specially bought a biscuit from Taiwan (well not exactly this one, but the transparent wrapper do look similar):

It was so nice for Wong to keep one for me since I have requested it. Thanks! I was so happy and can’t wait to try it but as always I’ll keep it till I get back to enjoy it with PW. Got back home placed it on the table and proceed to cook dinner and was left there till one day later (i forgot about the 2-legged mice at home). Just when I thought it was the right moment to eat it today, it was GONE!!! I felt so angry that I almost made PW into a bad mood.

Well it was a missed review so:

Sun biscuit (pronounced as Tai Yang Bing in Mandarin) is a popular and famous Taiwanese snack. It is even popular to be brought back as a souvenir. Well put it this way it is just like the famous Siew Pau when you are in Seremban. How did it get it name? 1. It was originate from a shop named ‘Sun Hall’ 2. Because it looks like the shape of the Japan flag.

The taste? I can’t really recall the last time I ate it, perhaps ‘Helmut The Lim’ can describe it. Some research online said it taste like Lou Po Peng (wif'e’s cake) but so much nicer than it. Why can it be GONE~ sob…

Actually I didn’t want to blog today at all, it was due to another sad story with regards to the other ‘Sun’. Sunny Boy (what PW call my old Nissan Sunny) got into an Alzheimer or some Parkinson disease. Imagine if you are driving in the dark, alone, what would you feel when you wiper suddenly turned on without you switching it followed by RPM and Volt meter to jump crazily? In the end your radio just trip OFF and turn on again… Way CREEPY~! After dinner, I was so scared that sunny boy is really into some serious sickness as he keeps waving to everyone on the road with it’s wiper, I can’t resist to drive to the mechanic nearby my house to get it checked immediately. When I got there, sunny boy could not be started, he is death silent. Feeling lucky (got to a mechanic) and unlucky (sunny boy is dead) at the same time but mostly sad. The mechanic changed the main fuse which he suspected, cross finger that is the main problem. It got started after that, phew. It was quite late so he asked me to bring in another day to have a thorough check up on him.

Exhausted Catfish

It’s been so tiring to get PW in to the blogging mood. This is what she did to avoid from starting up her first post:

• The blog design is a no no.
• Must have a proper introduction. Lengthy one I would say.
• Being rational she agreed that it is indeed too lengthy and it will take forever to finish, so she agree I should start writing other post first.
• After getting initial blog design + 2 blog started, she said we don’t have a good banner.
• Next, no site meter!!!... etc etc

Setting aside the “above”, I want to compliment myself that Nibble of Thoughts blog page design do look decent now. =P Don’t you think so? It’s been ages since I touched CSS and HTML.

The blog design was a courtesy of N.Design Studio. Painfully edited it to suit our blogging need. There were problems like the content width could not fit full length landscape photo, some part were nibbled off. Didn’t like the way how the labels, comments and post date were positioned. The most troublesome is the calendar display for each post was a pain. It takes me long hours to figure out how to use the CSS and javascript. It look alright for the moment although there is some problem loading the javascript on IE browser.

There was a big problem with the page header picture but it worked out nicely! All thanks to PW’s brilliant idea. Spot anything? (Note: 100% Genuine photo, only 1 history edit in photoshop) Best scenic photo taken with PW, was taken in Kuala Selangor during our 3rd year anniversary trip to Pangkor.

It was worthwhile after the pain. Do comment on the design, I did put a lot of effort in it. Suggestions are welcome, this is my first time designing a blog.

I guess reading this was painful and draggy post, I do apologize for it!

Pains and exhausted catfish aside, writing this post was a great experience and easy with the use of Windows Live Writer instead of the small post edit form in Blogger. This was recommended by Mr YJ Microsoft, thanks pal. I’ll update more after I get to learn more about it. If you’ve tried it, do share your findings with me.

Teary Day...

I am a total mess today... Tears streaming down every 5 minutes.. If the neighbours are watching, they must think some sort of abuse is taking place.. Poor DD (aka Catfish) will be blame for it.. nyehehhheh


The actual culprit: Britains Got Talent.... -_-"


Ridiculous isn't it? For the record, I'm not the sort of person who cry easily.. What is happening to me??? I just got so inspired by those participant. Some of the recommended acts : Shaheen Jafargholi, Good Evans, and of course the infamous Susan Boyle..

Go watch if you have the time.. :)

PS: One tip of making the show seems more interesting to you, watch it when you have something more important to attend to.. Trust me, every act will be eye catching...

PPS: I can see DD fuming behind me for the 1st PS... I am suppose to be preparing for a very important future shaping presentation... hehehe.... shh~
