A good buy...

Recently, i'm interested to further understand on how nutrient food could help us on our health. Besides, i'm also interested to know more about eating balance... :->

Went to Popular book store @ Ikano (near the curve), a suburban mall last night after the dinner. I straight went to the rack that had all the book regarding healthy food. I'm looking for a good book talking about nutrition. I bought two books regarding FOOD. Not regular food but how to eat healthy :->

Author: Sarah Merson
publication: February 2007
ISBN: 1844833941
Blackberries neutralize free radicals, which cause heart disease and premature wrinkles. Beets purify the blood and act as an anticarcinogen. Sardines have age-defying fatty acids and antioxidants. There’s no longer any doubt that a healthy diet is the cornerstone of a long and healthy life; eating right slows the aging process and keeps you looking good and feeling great. More...



I bought the nutrition for life for RM$50.91 after the discount. The current market price is RM115.95. The popular bookstore forgot to review the older price which is RM59.90. Because of their mistake, they sold the book to me for RM59.90 and i got additional 15% since my cousin has the card. Guess what? I used my HSBC credit card and i got another RM5 rebate for the next book i.e. Top 100 foods for a younger you. This book cost RM26.00 and i got 10% discount and a RM5 rebate on the book. End up i only paid RM18.40 for the book. So i spent total RM69.31 for two books which without all the discount and rebate it should cost RM141.95. Is it a good buy or not ?

Pilate Saturday ...

I went for 2 hours pilate class back to back. I started with the basic class... it's really basic as i knew all the steps :-> After the basic, i followed Ginny the instructor to another class. The class was almost full and all were regular. Ginny decided to go more advance. Oops! i started to feel uncomfortable ... Anyway, i stayed thru the class to challenge myself on the more advance Pilate steps. It was really advance with lots of twist and turn. I enjoyed the class but after effect was i had a sore abs muscle. hehehe... nearer to my 6 packs goal :-p

Plan changed and i will only be travel to Penang tomorrow morning. So hurray! PT session is on tonite.I called Isaiah Kee yesterday to arrange tonite session @ FF-Axis. I'm looking forward for this session as i have been lazy and stopped working out for two days... :-p My muscle is getting loose and my mood is not very nice (moody).

Collague from Penang visit

One of my collague from Penang paid a visit to our office @ Cyberjaya. I was surprised to have her in the office as there is no face to face meeting being scheduled today in the office. A more relax day as about 50% of the collagues are still in holiday :->

This collague of mine IM me on my communicator and saying that she heard i'm talking to my boss... oops! fortunately i don't talk bad behind anyone, otherwise ... ;-p So she told me that she is here in Cyberjaya. I immediately asking her whether wanna to join the others for lunch... i like to be the host of all the visitors (especially pretty lady and cute guy *wink*) ... so guess what i'm doing ... hehehe... Bingo! showing her around the office and introduce the rest of the collagues to her.

One of my collagues thaught that she is a new comer and so excited to know her more as she is pretty i would say, my office has too many single guys... hehehe :-) Unfortunately, she will be flying back to Penang tonite. Otherwise, the other collagues of mine could have lunch with her. Reason she dropped by here is that she was here for the long weekend and her mom will be coming to Penang from here hometown. So both Mom and Daughter will be flying to Penang... Have a save journey home.

Shopping @

Went to oneU with sis and mom. We reached there at about 3pm, wondering around in the carpark for about 30mins. Finally, got a good spot near the entrance and straight headed to Parkson 1U as my sis wanted to buy the bed sheet and Quilt cover as advertised. Mom, on the other hand wanted to purchase curtain as there is a 70% off. At the end, we got nothing and we could not find the brand that have advertised in the pamplet. I asked the customers service where I could get the brand as advertised, their answer was we do have this brand, please try the promotion area. When we got to the promotion area, the sales person there mentioned that there was no such item and recommended us to get another brand which is double the price. Is this a gimmick or not? I was so pissed off and sweared that i'll not go to Parkson again in the future for any discounted items... Others, please beware of the gimmick... :-(

Anyway, since sis is going to move to a new house. She wanted to head to Jusco home center to shop for kitchen appliances (hob and hood). There was a sales guy whom was so enthuthiastic to sell the brand Tellini instead of others brand. I bet tellini must have given him a good commission :-> Sis have not decided which one she is going to get. We shopped there for about 2.5 hrs and headed out from the home center with lots of different brochure.

We had our dinner @ Genki Sushi, A japanese sushi bar type of restaurant with the convey belt in the middle, serving all kinds of sushi. We had the sashimi set and a plate of soft shell crab roll... yummy :->

Left 1U after dinner...

Party @ KL happening place...

I just woke up half an hour ago. I had a great nite yesterday party until 2am. It has been a while i was busy with my work and spent the rest of my time in the gym.

I went to KL most happening place i.e. Jalan Sultan Ismail, near KLCC. The place was full of people. I don't think i need to mention about the traffic... you could imagine yourself. The later the more crowded it was and the worst the traffic was too. I wanna to go out for drinks and was asking my gym buddy, Musa out to hang around the place for a couple of beer with me. We arrived that area about 10 something, parked @ Concorde hotel as our initial plan is to visit the Hard Rock Cafe. At the end, we decided to explore the bar near the hotel.

We walked around and looking for a bar which we could hang around. We came across an interesting designed bar and decided to spend some time in Aloha. So we went into the bar and lots of people already in the building enjoying the music and their drinks. It was jammed packed until we hardly could stand.

Aloha has three floors, the top floor is for VIP patrons, ground floor is pack of people like us which is not VIP... :-p Anyway, the bar was designed quite well and the music was ranging from 80s - 90s which i believe it targeted those whom are 35s and above. There is another floor which resides in the basement. This floor is full of college kids as lots of latest music being played... so you could imagine the college kids were there dancing like nobody business... We stopped by and decided not going to dance because it was even pack then the ground floor. :-> and went back up...

It was a enjoyable nite and we called it a day about 1 something... by the time i reached home it was about 2am... hehehe ... took shower and hit the bed :->

Spiderman-3 is coming to town

Lots of people rushing to watch the Spiderman-3, the cinema in KLCC was jammed up last night with people lining up for the movie. I bet the same scenario will be happen today. My gym buddy Musa is so lucky that he got the ticket to watch the Spiderman-3 @ IMAX


I'm not a comic fans but don't mind watching comic movie for its computer generated graphic :-> Maybe i will watch it later when the crowd is slowing down hehehe .... :-p
