Food Promotion.

I'm feeling extremely happy after reading Alia's post about her favourite food and places to eat. It's really a pick-me-up stuff (I love food too much but I don't have a big stomach to fit everything.lol).

Right. About food promotion there are two things that I want to include in this post.

The first one is Malaysia Cocoa & Choc Day 2010 at Mid Valley on 15-17 October (at Hall 2, people!) There's going to be a lot of chocolatiers from all over the world!

To quote the reviewer:
"Dedicated specially to serious chocolate lovers, chocoholics and chocolate connoisseurs from all walks of life, event highlights includes talks, demos, quizzes, chocolate secret recipes, contests and chocolicious samplings."

I am so going to that event. Ngehehe.


For those who love Japanese style steamboat, there's going to be Nabe Promotion at Sushi King. I'm going to try nabe with miso soup and shoyu soup. Meh. Can't wait to go back home next week.
Hehe, I know about it from Sushi King Alamanda outlet. I am not sure if it is offered at other outlets, though. Oh, and there will also be Sushi King RM2 bonanza where you get to eat sushi for RM2 per plate (also at Alamanda. not sure if it's the same at other outlets).

I know I'm so lampi but I just get to know Baskin-Robbins' Pink Day (every Wednesday until teh end of this year) last time I went to BR with my mom. There was this guy with pink key chain who tried to get 2 ice creams at a cheap price (he looked so desperate when he tried to find something pink on him, my mom and I couldn't help but laughed about it at that time).

You simply show that you have anything pink on you (pen, nails, tie?! lol, etc) and pay only RM 7.50+ to get 2 of your most favorite flavors !!!
Additional : upgrade your sugar cone to a yummy Waffle Cone with only RM 1.50+ !

Uwahhh!

No vocab came into my mind when I wrote the title above, therefore there is the stupid phrase(?).

I feel sleepy, get tired easily and has become a bumbling fool whose head is always foggy without the slightest notion of reality. Yes, I'm currently mired in Lala Land.

I haven't the slightest idea why am I in this condition. Even my lecturers notice my lack of focus in class: I get really low mark for my midterm papers. It is not a question not studying or lack of preparation. I got blank when I see the tests.

Maybe I got sick with some unknown disease of attention deficit or some alien bugs.
I've always been sick in the head so I know for sure that there is nothing wrong with my mind.

Oh lalala~ maybe I don't get my quota of perverted materials?!

Alter ego: Ignore the chinchilian manquot. She's a perverted neurotic.
Me: Oh yes, my existence defies the law of sanity.
Alter ego: (snort) Says the mad cow.

My Family and I (Ramadhan episode)

My mom gets lonely now that her children are staying away from home for most part of the year. Haha... tu lah, asyik bising kat aku sebab duduk rumah je masa cuti. Bila aku kat uni sibuk pulak suruh balik rumah.

Putting that aside, Ramadhan scenario at home has not changed a bit.

After Tarawikh, we'd go back home, flip the channel and talk. At approximately 2 o'clock in the morning my mom retires to her room. zzZZZ....

She'd wake up an hour later, holler at us to go to sleep (because my brother and I stays up until after Subuh prayer).
"Budak-budak, pergi tidur! Nanti bil elektrik naik!"

...ignore mak....

at 4 a.m, my mom would wake up, check on us again and start her line (see above). Being ignored, she would mumble something incomprehensible (I suspect she mumbles in Thai, though we have never been able to verify the case -_-).

At 5 a.m, my brother would go, "Mak! Bangun makan sahur!"

And I'd reply, "Diam lah kau! Pergi la makan sendiri!"

Then my mom would yell something like,"Diam lah korang!menjerit macam monyet!"

After all the commotion, we eat our sahur, my mom would persistently make us (more like shove in our forcefully)eat a lot.

Stuffed, we would sit on the couch like ular sawa kekenyangan.

This is when a new argument starts: the lack of space on the couch and other matters pertaining to the hierarchy of familial power. Shouts would ensue from each member of our family.


Adik: "Mak gemuk lah. Duduk sana sikit!"
Mak: "Ish, mana ada! Korang yang ambik space banyak sangat!"
Kakak: "Tepi sikit! Dah la bontot korang besar!"
Mak: "Korang patut hormat mak!"
Kakak: "Tak de kena-ngena dengan duduk kat sofa. Tepi!"
Adik: "Korang ni menyemak je!"


If I'm too sleepy to join in the argument, my mom and my brother would usually argue about the rights for the floor cushions.

It's really noisy at our house. I pity our neighbours who have to endure all the din we make -_-U

My family's repast is arguing. We don't need to pay for vocal training. We already have a vocal coach at home: my mom. Isn't that grand? (laughs)
