Chinese New Year 2010 was AWESOME-ly bored, as usual..
Being a true KL resident (grandparents, parents, relatives, etc were ALL from and still in KL) is quite boring because we didn’t really go anywhere other than visiting relatives..
Lucky that most of my close friends are all true KL residents as well..Staying in traffic-congestion-free KL is better than to get stuck in the jam going back hometown and coming back KL, anytime!
*L>R..Front>Justin, Mabel, Raven, Daniel..Back>Chew Shu, Bee Yan*
First we made Chew Shu’s house a pit-stop then we went for lunch..It’s like a routine thingy..
Every year we will gather at her house and start to get headache for thinking where to have our lunch..
*L>R..Front>Weng Soon, Lausanne, Chocolate, Justin..Back>Yew Hon, Chew Shu, Bee Yan, Raven*
And so we decided to make a move to Fusion something something at Sri Petaling..It’s somewhere around the shoplots nearby Hotel Sri Malaysia..
It’s a fusion of ramen, pasta, western, oriental, and much more style where 2 or 3 of them fused into one dish..
So we ordered our food and drinks, and camwhored..
*Ramen Soup with Omelet*
This is my ramen soup with omelet egg and some sausages..Taste just like any nissin noodles but it is not bad..
Oh well should’ve tried something else..
*Lamb Chop*
If not mistaken this is a lamb chop, nicely done..The girl who had it was kinda full because there is the lamb chop, a fried Japanese-styled glutinous rice, and a bit of fries or something..
The taste wasn’t bad and most of the Western food were kinda of the same portion as the lamb chop and those who had Western were quite full, so they said..
Some photos after the jump and GIRLS do check out the bottom of this entry..

Last weekend I joined the fellow Alphanatics to the semi-finals of Miss Hypertune, an annual model search made popular by the car magazine, Hypertune..
SONY Xplod was one of the sponsors so we Alpharians got to get some “media” passes and went to the event as photographers and all..
*Participants from all over Malaysia*
IMHO, some of the girls really cannot make it, as in their appeal..But I should applaud them for their courage to join such events..
*The 2009 Miss Hypertune candidates*
In the crowd there were one Japanese, one Russian, one Kazakh, one Indonesian Chinese, one Korean, and the rest were Malaysian Chinese..
Like many other events, most of these girls are student and/or freelancers..
*Group pic of 33 participants*
So the models were all posing in front of Mist Club before they went on stage to be judged by the panel judges, who half of it were previous winners or runners-up..
*Evonne*
I’ve found my new love among the contestants..My favourite contestants of all is no other than Evonne..She’s the tallest among, standing at 172cm if not mistaken..
She’s a tad bit skinny, but it’s okay..She’s sweet, tall, and thin..My love~~
Look who is my new found second love..

Close to one months ago which is during the Hari Raya holiday, some of the ex-Form Sixers gathered around for a steamboat feast cum gathering at Tony’s house..
Thanks to Lay Koon and Tony for organizing this gathering..
I know one month is a long way but I was busy so yeah..Here’s my post..LOL~!!
*Wah Kei the poser*
One of my buddies back in Form 6 times, Wah Kei..He is currently working in Intel Penang..Don’t play play..
A lot of them were unable to attend and a lot more weren’t invited due to the constraint time frame..
Those who attended were Poh Hong, Pay Shuen, Tai Chee, Xinyee, Lay Koon, Waimin, and few others whom I can’t really recall as I was busy eating my heart out..
*Cock tails and balls*
Yes, we have cocks, balls, and tails..How can steamboat be completed without the balls..
*So-called Abalone mushroom*
This is the ‘bao yu ku’, which I directly translate it to abalone mushroom..Is that the correct name for it? Please correct me if I’m wrong..
*More balls, crab sticks, and fishes*
Other than the balls, it would be nice if you want to feel healthy and grab some vegetables..
Steamboat is quite heaty so it’s also good to go with some cool such as carbonated drinks or beer..

October 3rd 2009 is the day that a lot of couples deemed it to be an auspicious day..They get married on 2009’s Mid-Autumn Festival based on the Lunar calendar..
I have 2 couple of friends who have registered since few months back and now they are officially married, the Chinese way..
One couple is my old best buddy, Jason Chan Yew Mun, whom I got to know during my short stint in Cochrane Road School doing Form 6, marrying his love of his life, Grace Loo..
Another couple is a blogger friend who I got to know not long after I blog actively back in 2006, Cely and Hongkiat..
As much as I wanted to attend both of their dinner, but it’s impossible..
To make up to both of these friends wedding, I’ve decided to go both sides, one in the morning and one for the dinner..
So, I went to Jason and Grace’s wedding reception aka tea ceremony (in Chinese custom), in a slight hangover state..I know, it sucks..
*Home prayer*
Due to my drunkard state in the previous night (with a different group of friends), I didn’t manage to go to the early morning thingy where the maids of honor (bridesmaids) played a fool with the best men (groomsmen)..
I bet it was a fun activity..
*Rushing to the next destination, The Mines*
So after fetching the bride to the groom’s house for a short prayer and all, they proceeded to the next destination for the tea ceremony..
On a side note, it’s not quite a good morning as it drizzled for a while..I bet a lot of couples around the KL were expecting the worst scenario..
Fortunately it didn’t happened..
*In Mines*
Before the Chinese custom’s wedding tea ceremony, all of us were treated with some light meals because all of them were up since early morning, except for me.. 
Due to my hangover state, I skipped the foods and drinks..
*The lovely couple, Jason and Grace*
A bit of fun facts..Both of them got to know each other in their college, Sunway College..
They have been together for 4 years and 11 months before the real deal, if you set aside the registration part..We are Chinese anyway..
What else..One of the bride’s bridesmaid, Jennifer is my friend Nicholas’ girlfriend and Nicholas happened to be Jason’s ex-schoolmates back in Primary school..
More photos up ahead on the tea ceremony and also the bouquet-tossing activity, which is kinda funny..

On the first day of Eid ul-Fitri (Hari Raya), 20th September 2009, we went to Delicious at Marc Service Residence, nearby KLCC, to celebrate Hsu Jen’s birthday..
The traffic in Kuala Lumpur area has never been so quiet and smooth for quite some time..
I don’t think it’s this smooth during Chinese New Year..Chinese New Year fail!
*The empty road on Jalan Pinang, Kuala Lumpur*
It was suppose to be a surprise lunch party with the DGMB gang but the organizer failed to coordinate the whole thing and we reached a tad early..
*Different business hour on Hari Raya*
The organizer failed in this area..Fortunately they still open, what if they close on the first day of Raya? EPIC FAIL~!!
*David and Hsu Jen coming in for the surprise*
It’s pretty difficult to give people surprises nowadays unless it’s REALLY surprising, such as to invite few good friends whom have not keep in touch for some time, or gather everyone in a dark place and jump out to surprise the birthday person..
More food photos for you to drool

It was my father’s 59th birthday on 15th September 2009, so my sisters and I decided to take a break from Chinese food (again!) and went for western (again!)..
This time we’ve chosen Tony Roma’s, because I’ve heard many good reviews and recommendations, and of course I’ve never tried it before..Neither does my father..
Wanted to try others like Bondi Bar, Frontera, or maybe Delicious, but it’s better not to be risky for such dinner..
So off we went to Cineleisure’s Tony Roma’s at about 7.30pm..Traffic was quite considerably smooth, normal during the month of Ramadhan..
*Tallen, my dad, and me*
My dad doesn’t look like the olden times 59 year-old person where a lot of them would be either hunchbacked or look rather really old..
I bet most of the modern days people look like this nowadays..Talk about modern lifestyle..My sister’s boyfriend Tallen joined us for the dinner..
*My sisters, Shan (L) and Min (R)*
Tallen is the boyfriend of my youngest sister Shan..Enough of scrutinizing the menu and here goes the real deal..
Not knowing what to order and what’s best in Tony Roma’s, we ordered the followings..
*My medium rare Ribeye Steak*
Medium rare Ribeye Steak, it’s juicy and very tender, of course..To be honest, this is my first time trying a medium rare one..
Usually I would have ordered medium well..So, I can’t really compare or comment about this medium rare..
I’m not use to chew on something this raw and bloody..It tasted pretty good, nonetheless..Think I might stick back to my medium well for easier chewing wtf..
More yummylicious photos and kudos to their good service..
