Wordless Wednesday [21]

Local Food

 

Aritu friends from German datang KK for holiday. So the night hey arrived aku bawa makan di upperstar, sebab tempat tu saja aku terfikir okay, banyak pilihan dan buka lewat makan. So I brought Marina and her boyfriend Momo to Upperstar.

So berabis la dorang scan tu menu, terus dia “I want to have Nasi Lemak” alalah. Malangnya kitchen untuk rice sudah close time tu because it’s quite late juga, ada pasta and grilled food sahaja. So makanlah pasta. Bila berbual dia tanya aku suka local food ka western atau apa. Sebab dia prefer local food dia cakap. Okay.

So lepas tu aku hantar dia pergi backpackers lodge. Dorang 2 weeks di Sabah, after that dorang ke Ranau, Sandakan, Tawau. I supposed to bawa them to Sandakan last 2 weeks tu tapi aku tiba-tiba ada course pula on Saturday. So aku biar seja la dorang bejalan sendiri. Ok juga. Then dua hari terakhir dorang di KK before fly to Penang baru aku jumpa dorang balik.

Kali ni aku sudah plan mau bawa dorang makan di D’KL (Di Kampung Likas), kedai makan yang duduk di lantai meja rendah macam meja Jepun tu, dan suasana Jawa di dalamnya.

Macam-macam kami order. Ikan 3 rasa, udang sambal, udang butter, ayam madu, ayam taliwang, tauhu telur, terung. Kicknya. Paling kick sambal ayam taliwang tu, memang meletup! (Ceh macam jak aku tapernah makan bah punya gaya tebarus eh) Aku pula yang over berselera.

Yang bestnya Marina and Momo pun mau try makan pakai tangan. Dan mau juga cuba cuci tangan pakai teko cuci tangan even sudah cuci tangan di sink. Coolness!

Sambal dirata. Udang dikupas satu-satu pakai tangan. Semuanya setel. Kecuali kepala ikan aku tadapat setelkan sebab aku kenyang gila. And their fav drinks is Teh C Special, siap tanya resepi, mau beli gulanya tu supaya dorang boleh bikin sendiri bila balik German nanti.

Aku rasa aku patut buka Cinoi Tourism Sdn Bhd. Ramai kawan dari jauh pun ramai refer aku, dan banyak aku bawa jalan. Masa dorang ni datang pun ada my Uni friends datang KK, tasempat jumpa, tapi jadual perjalanan dorang dirancang oleh aku, atas perbincangan la. Tempat macam mana dorang mau pergi and aku advise. Rasa hebat pula. Proud to be Sabahan.

 

Until then.

Cancel Sudah

Last time Jay berbual-bual sama my 9 years old niece, Yaya. I didn’t actually know what they were talking, but I just know this part.

Jay: Yaya, Aunty Noi ada boyfriend ka dulu

Yaya: Ada

Jay: Siapa boyfriend Aunty Noi, kasitau bah sama Uncle Jay

Yaya: Mana boleh kasitau. Rahsia. Ada lah dulu.

Jay: Ala boleh la kasitau Uncle bah.

Yaya: Ada la dulu, lama suda. Tapi tiada sudah sekarang. Cancel sudah dorang

Jay: Cancel???!! Bahahahaha

Sambungannya Yaya cerita macam mana Aunty Noi and Uncle Jay bermula. Haha. Dia yang tau, pandai-pandai cerita macam couple-couple reminiscing macam mana mula bercinta dulu, tapi dari perspektif Yaya. Lain kali aku sambung.

Semoga berjaya menjalani Monday dengan jayanya.

Bye love.

It’s Time

These few days was hard for me. Sebab my old phone makin meragam, it is BB Bold 9000, first edition of bold, with track ball. Track ball dia yang masalah.

Bila taboleh scroll, semua notification pun tadapat buka. Emails, Fb noti, twitter, sms, whatsapp. And it sucks big time boooo. Dengan keinginan yang tinggi, aku cuba cari shortcut untuk buka satu-satu application tu.

So far lepas menekan pelbagai kekunci, aku sudah boleh ke FB, tapi terhad, cuma dapat jawab yang ada notification, dan boleh view profile sendiri dan update status. Twitter pula cuma boleh pergi ke DM (direct message) melalui shortcut messaging, so tweet memang tabboleh compose new or reply orang, buka di web seja la *sad* Email sekarang semua boleh buka la, guna shortcut search dekat messaging, type email address and search, so dapatlah pergi.

Untuk kes BBM. Boleh buka. Tapi boleh baca dan reply orang yang display name dia consist of normal letters sahaja. Sebab aku akan taip nama orang tu dan dia auto select orang tu lah, so dapatlah aku bbm. Tapi untuk orang yang display name dia consist of symbols also, that one memang saya taboleh reply or even baca.

Sangat menyedihkan dan menggeramkan. Sebab using shortcut semuanya lambat. Especially with emails ni, aku kan selalu on the go. Almost all information about work aku perlu email, reply, baca.

And this lead to stress yang amat. Menjadi salah satu dari list stress aku.

So I am going to put an end to this! Because aku kena reduce stress list aku, there are so many other things I need to think about other than a broken phone.

So. Yeah. This damaged phone thingy will end soon. Very soon ;)

Guess I’ll see you on the happy side after this. Byebye.

Love,

Off Dulang Hantaran

Beberapa hari kebelakangan ni aku asyik buat research pasal hantaran.

Kak Lyne suggest aku suruh orang buat saja, dulu (in 2010), orang charge dia RM38 1 dulang. Now 2012 tidak tahu la berapa sudah harganya, kali 11 dulang lagi. Haiya mouw kaw chou ah.

Last time aku ada tanya juga this one bridal shop di Sandakan, dorang buat, RM58 for dulang. RM58!!!! No tq la.

So I decided to do it on my own. Kakak saya cakap tasempat tu nanti you will be busy which I don’t think so, sebab majlis berhantar aku adalah majlis tunggal yang berasingan dari majlis tunang atau nikah. So aku buat sendiri. Some more, aku rimas kalau orang buat, dulang penuh dengan bunga, which is no point. Bagus aku xda taru item di dulang tu, taru bunga saja, barang pun tertutup oleh bunga. No no.

Aku mau dulang ku as simple as possible, item nya boleh dilihat dengan mata kasar dan tidak ditutupi oleh hutan bunga yang merimaskan. So what I need now is to rent the dulang. I want dulang yang seperti di bawah ini, so if you guys tahu mana tempat yang I can rent this please darling do inform me okay, since yang picture di bawah ni semua di semenanjung. I want to rent 11nos.

Kalau tadapat, nda kan lah aku beli sendiri kan. Lepas tu aku sewakan sama orang? Lama-lama aku buka bisnes bridal? ok juga kan. Ahhha. Tatau lah. Aku kena usaha cari benda ni yang boleh disewa. Or kalau ada duit lebih aku akan beli seja lah, kemudian sewakan. Lagipun I already save di part hiasan kan. Tapi macam ridiculous pulak bah mau beli this silver dulang. We’ll see how la.

Apapun, DIY it is!

Eh, jangan hairan kalau kamu tengok muka ku macam dulang sudah. Aku kerasukan dulang sudah ni.

Ok bye.

I Just Hit The Keyboard Randomly

Because I miss blogging so much. Jadi entry ini agak kelam kabut sikit. Okay. Rentetan minggu lepas.

Food and Diet

I’ve learn to eat OAT last week and I made it. Now I love oat , suddenly. For certain people, yes, I look thin, or in a better word, slim. But for me, I am bigger than before, I can see it in my pictures recently, I am not used to this. It is hard to get in my jeans oh demmit please. So I only take bread and milk for breakfast at home before went to work. Heavy brunch at 10am. Drinks (like juice) during lunch, no dinner. Just take green apple and oat before 7pm. And milk before sleep. I used to hate oat, it’s tasteless for me. But now I know the secret of yummy oat, it is in the milk. Right amount of right milk provides you yummy oat. Try it! But I haven’t start exercise yet. If I have extra money, maybe I’ll buy PB as suggested by Sarah since few months ago! And maybe buy HL from Amy.

Work

I just hope that work will not be part of my life. I wish I can left work like really left it and go home without it. But it stuck in my mind and I hate it. I was like always afraid to work the next day, thinking what is there waiting for me, and the workload urghhh. And the part I hate the most – driving to work. I loveee to work at site, but I hate to drive that far everyday, like 90km return journey. I dislike to work at HQ office, because hurmm, ah I’ll pass this, not in the mood of whining about that now, but it is nearer T.T huhuh. Kita tidak boleh dapat semua yang kita mahu kan. Jadi aku cuba la rajin-rajin sebab kerja tu kan ibadah juga.

Relationship

Yes we have been through up and down in just a week. Many things happened. The preparation is slow. Somehow we manage to register for March Kursus Kahwin. Sometimes, if we argue, I feel like I wanna punch him on his face. Tapi kadang-kadang lepas bergaduh, aku rasa macam aku mau tumbuk muka sendiri pula. And the cycle goes on.

Weekend

Work half day on Saturday. Pick up friends of friend at airport, Marina and her bf Momo on Saturday night. This German friends of mine been on vacation since weeks ago. Their flight was from Jakarta, they were in Indonesia for 2 weeks, now 2 weeks in Sabah then back to north Malaysia, to Thailand then Cambodia, and to Kl again. They actually did couch surfing in Indon, but I don’t even have a couch, so I send them to the cheapest Backpackers lodge in town. Funny thing was, dia tutup pintu kereta aku dengan kuat sekali dan teruss “opsss, I’s sorryy” lepas dengar bunyi macam zink nipis haha. maybe she used to BMW or anything unlike Malaysian car, huhu. And they wanted to eat Nasi Lemak at 12 midnight?? where to find.

Then, I did laundry on Sunday, and tiba-tiba watch Man On A Ledge on Sunday night (last night), it was awesome. Go watch! Kaki wayang harus tonton ni, way better dari Haywire yang mengecewakan seperti cerita psiko porno tu. Man On A Ledge ni banyak aksi mendebarkan aku siap tutup mata macam tengok cerita hantu, jalan cerita pun menarik. At the end kamu akan cakap “ohh rupanyaa yangg ituu ialahh ituu, now I know” hah macam gitu lah lebih kurang. Go go watch! Sementara menunggu wayang tu aku main game bola di pusat game di CP tu dengan tunang. Ahha. And home by midnight.

Off Blog

Jadi sekarang aku masih hutang entry Tip Of Borneo sebab aku tiada card reader, and my camera was kind of lowbat and I just learnt that I left the charger back in Sandakan. And I guess even though I have a photographer on the same roof, I don’t think our camera charger is same. I’ll ask my bro-in-law later la if he have charger for my camera bat, or he must have a card reader, hopefully I won’t forget about this when I am home later. That’s the point I am typing that, so I won’t forget.

Jadi aku tinggalkan kamu lah dengan 1 gambar di lokasi Tip of Borneo, from Jay’s phone.

Have a wonderful week people!

Love,

Sandakan Memorial Park

Was my first visit juga. Padahal, before tinggal di Teratak Bonda (my current home), kami tinggal di Rimba which is within walking distance sahaja ni Memorial Park. Tapi tapenah tepikir untuk masuk pun. This memorial park ialah tempat memperingati mereka yang ditawan Jepun dan dipaksa berjalan kaki dari Sandakan hingga ke Ranau. Imagine! Sandakan ke Ranau tu ada lah dalam 200km by road. Masa tu ntah lalu hutan jerr kot. Matai. Ohho tuuu diaaaa muka first time tak cover-cover.

My most favourite item yang ada di sini was the old-school excavator Abaikan dua entiti di dalam gambar tu. Fokus kepada excavator

Ada lagi satu barang, boiler.

Yang lain-lain ni kamu layan gambar saja la ya.

Ini sudut aku paling suka, macam twilight beb, cuma kurang sejuk sajorrrr.

Akhir sekali aku tinggalkan kamu dengan gambar wajib-ambil-gambar-di-spot-ini

Love,

So between Chronicles and Haywire, aku pilih Haywire sebab hero perempuan kan aku suka la. Sekali tengokk!! Hahahaha. Bagus tapayah tengok. Some people left the hall early. Puzzle cerita dia okay, bikin tertanya lah. Tapi memang slow and rare dowh la cerita ni. Tengok sendiri lah, tapi jangan menyesal. Manatau kamu suka pula kan.
