Express Gathering

I always thought the last time i updated my blog was like 2 weeks ago and when i realized it, it's already a month! :O yes! a month! Dang!

Anyway, had an express gathering 2 days back. It was an express one for me coz i need to go back to office after that. So i stayed for around 1 hour and then went back after that. Another reason why it was an express on is because there wasn't many people attended. Well, not to say it's a good thing that they didnt come but it's good in a way that the session was a lil more personal as you get to know each other even better. Not to say we dont know each other before this. Just that we didnt meet for a long time, there's definitely a lot of things to catch up. So yea, it was a good one. At least i get to know Wanyi more. :P.

Superstar?

Famous star!

That was my first time trying Carls Jr after for dont know how many zillion years. And i think it's more worth it compared to McD. It's more expensive compared to McD but for that amount of money and the size of the food, it's more worth it. Trust me. I ordered Super star with cheese. It's quite filling. If you're a small eater then maybe you can share it with another friend.

As we grew older, we get busier with our work, life and other stuff. It's good to have gathering like this once in a while. Maybe not all can make it but it's good if at least 2 or 3 can make it. Because we're no longer in our high school days where we all have the same schedule. That's why i think it's impossible for us to have the same free time/ free slot. So we should just meet up whenever we have time! :)

Astro On The Go Party With Churp Churp and Nuffnang

So last Saturday i went to this Astro On The Go Party organized by Churp Churp, Nuffnang and of course Astro! It was a launch of their Astro On The Go App where you can watch certain Astro programme on your iPhone, iPad and even Android phone. But Android user have to wait till September to enjoy this privilege. The party was at The Pool, Jalan Ampang. The place was kind difficult to find coz they dont have a big ass signboard or something. The signboard they have, you cant really read the words if you are driving. Coz you need to strain your eyes to read it but i think it's not a problem there coz that road is always jammed! Pfft. Anyway, let the photos do the talking. :)

This is The Pool. Yea, that's the pool.

This girl just loves to camwhore.

Winner of the best dressed that night! 

Here she is again..

Harimau Malaya RAWR!

Caught off guard

And pose again..

Overall, the event was good! Everything went well, thank god. :P. And i think the app is cool where they allow Astro user to watch their programmes for free until 31st August 2012 if not mistaken. But too bad i dont have a iPhone or else i'll definitely try it out! And you people who owns iPhone or Android phone, go try it out and let me know kay! :D If you are not sure how to use it, let me show you how.

It's super easy! Just follow the 3 steps shown in the picture above and voila you can watch your favourite program! Super cool right? Ugh, feel like signing up for Astro now! Oh btw,  i had a photo taken with Adam C but too bad something wrong with the camera and the photo is ruined. :/ Le sigh.. Going to Colgate event later. ;) See ya!

Book Review : For One More Day by Mitch Albom

Just finished reading "For One More Day" by Mitch Albom. I have to say that i have mixed feelings after finished reading it. In fact, everytime i finishes a book or a movie, i have that kind of feeling. Weird, mixed feeling like i can no longer see the person in the book/movie anymore. Have you experienced that before? It's like something is missing. Hmm, anyway from this book, there's 2 major lessons learnt.

1. Make the correct decision
By this i mean correct, not good. Good is not neccesarily correct and correct might not necessarily be good. Why i say so? Because the leading character in this book made a decision that he regretted for his whole life. *Warning: Spoiler ahead!* The leading character's dad called and asked him to play for a match where that place is far from where he stayed and he needs to take plane to reach there. Initially he promised his mother to have brunch together with the family but because of a call from the dad(which is divorced from his mum), he lied to his mum saying he got a meeting to attend. After the game, he received a call from his wife saying that his mother died because she fell down and didnt manage to get help immediately. He regretted and thought that if he wasnt away from home, he could have save his mum. This one wrong decision cost him his life. His life was literally ruined.

2. See things from every angle
It's not good to see things one-sidedly because one day you might regret for being so biased. Again, spoiler ahead. :P. In the beginning of the book, the leading character's dad and mum was divorced and he put the blame on his mum for the absence of his dad. He thought that it was his mum who caused the divorced. He was so rebellious and against his mum throughout his teenage years. Only after the accident, when he met his mother (which might be a ghost or illusion, up to you to interpret), he realized that it was his dad that he had been admired for that long who caused the divorce. It was a shocking news and at that point, those regrets were like a pile of heavy rocks pushing him down leaving him speechless. That is why the old saying "Don't judge a book by its cover".

This is really a good book. And i think everyone should read it. Because sometimes you're too busy and overwhelmed with your life that you tend to forget something and take certain things for granted. It's really really a good book and i am planning to buy the other books written by Mitch Albom.

Mr Asahi Event @ Carlsberg Factory

Last Friday was quite a happening one. We had Funny Hat Friday, a colleague leaving and also an event at night, Mr Asahi Event. So let me lay out one by one. Funny Hat Friday, as it name suggests, we have to wear a funny hat on that day. what's the purpose you ask? Well, it's a fun-themed event where everyone can have fun. So those without hat will have to dance and it will be uploaded to our youtube channel. Everyone has chio hats. Mine is tadika hat. -___-. Funny hat mah. So i wore my tadika hat la. I'm following the theme! There's a few people who didn't put up their hat but that is not the main point because as i said earlier, we have a colleague leaving. Leaving the company. :(. I am not really close to her but after the Mr Asahi event, found out that she is actually a very nice and kind person. No wonder everyone (almost everyone) cried. We had Domino's Pizza for lunch.

Yum yum!! (i'm making myself hungry now..)

The pretty ladies in my office

Everyone can't wait to get a bite. :B

Later in the evening, we went Carlsberg Factory for an event. It was the launch of Mr Asahi. As in they are introducing the robot bartender. Event started at 6.30pm. We reached there at around 4 to help to set up everything. Well i'm in awe when i saw the factory. Coz they have their own pub! With all kinds of beers! Ok, call me a jakun or something. But seriously, this is the first time i step my foot onto a beer factory. That's why my jaws dropped when i saw it.

Registration started at 5.30 and that's when my job started. I'm in charge of the registration with my another colleague, Emelia. 7pm was the brewery tour. I wanted to go but due to the fact that i need to be at the registration counter, i can't go. :(. Hopefully there's next time so that i visit the factory. Dinner was served at 7.30pm. After that, it was the dance off competition. All the contestants are so good in dancing! And the first prize winner definitely deserve the prize. It was really a good performance. The whole thing ended at around 10.30 where it was a free and easy mingling session after that. Everyone was chilling and chatting. To be honest, this is my first time attending beer event. It was a nice experience. Oh and, Asahi is, really super dry. I don't know whether is it me or what. I actually felt quite thirsty after drinking it. Maybe because it's super dry? But the beer tastes good though. Didn't take much pictures because i was taking it using the company's camera so i forgot to take using mine. ._. but here are a few that i took. 

Cartons of Asahi Super Dry 

Packing the goodie bags

Yes, that's me! :D

He went all out to win that Beats headset

Oh btw, just in case you're wondering where am i working, i'm now working in the orange office. ;)

Ikea Damansara

So last weekend i went to Ikea in Damansara. Ya i know it's not something very special. But it's been a loooooong time since i went there. My last time there was like 3 or 4 years back. So i get kinda excited when i know i'm going there! :D Well my sole purpose of going there is to get their meatballs. Yes!! Meatballs! and not furniture. Lol. Honestly, things have changed quite a bit since the last time I went. So yea, I was kind of excited and I was like little kids checking out those stuff there. And I took lots of photos. Heh.

The queue is really long! But the wait wasn't hehe. Maybe coz those workers are efficient. ;)

I like the way they display their prawns. :)

Meatballs!!!

We ordered poached salmon with chives sauce, meatballs, mushroom soup and  almond chocolate cake. 

I like this. Though the sauce might not be likeable by others. Oh btw, the broccoli is HUMONGOUS! So satisfying!

Ooops, forgot bout the cinnamon bun. It tastes good after heating it with the microwave.

What fascinates me the most about this machine is that all drinks are sold at RM1. FREAKING RM1! ok la, not all, like those bottled drinks, it's RM2. But other than that, everything is at RM1. Pepsi leh! Ok, maybe you said Pepsi is selling like less than RM1 in hypermarkets but considering this is in the middle of the shopping centre, it's very cheap.

Chocolate Milk Tea from Ding Tea. First time trying their chocolate. Quite nice though. Another drink i like from Ding Tea is the oolong milk tea. Quite nice. Worth a try. ;)

Another awesome thing is their flea market. Not sure whether is it called flea market. There's a row of stalls selling all kinds of things at the pathway. Near Sakae Sushi that pathway. Ok la, maybe people who stay nearby there goes everyday (if they're opened everyday) but the things are awesome. I even bought those meme badges. So cute! Shall upload the pics later. ;).
