Zilch

Published by under Just For Fun

The title of this post refers to my weekend that has just ended. Basically, I didn’t do much. A lot of resting and pondering things. The hamster in my brains did not rest. Just my body did. I don’t know why I have so many things to think about. Everything under the sun goes right in.

Just got back from XCool’s house. He bought Pinball HD for me today after I ooh’ed and ahh’ed at it. I’ve always been a pinball lover and this game is number one in iPad’s Game Category. It’s really fun playing it on the iPad. Now, I just really need to break the world’s high score. People have 800 million points and the highest I got just now was 8 million. =.=

We were so happy about the response to the new slideshow feature in BattPowr Pro and BattPowr HD. Turn your ‘iDevices’ into digital photo albums while you charge them. Check it out! BattPowr HD is currently #50 in top paid app iPad Utility category (for USA). BattPowr is following closely behind XEmoji, which is still the best selling app by XCool Apps at the moment.

Wow. So tired now I am going to crash.

Thank you, Universe for a wonderful weekend. Thank you for everything!

Ip Man

Published by under Just For Fun,Life

During the time when I watched Ip Man 1, I already liked it. Donnie Yen is so cool! I just got home from watching Ip Man 2 premiere… Yes. The tickets that I’ve booked wrongly last Saturday. Haha. I was at XCool’s house (in Klang!) at 930pm when we decided to catch the movie. We rushed from Klang to The Curve in less than 45 mins time just in time to get the tickets before it gets released to walk-in folks.

Ip Man 2 was even better than the first! If his personality was like that in real life, I will take him as my idol. I like his calm and patient character. He lets his students make mistakes by themselves and remained calm (and smiley). Truly inspiring. Two thumbs up! Won’t tell you more. Go watch it yourself.

Tomorrow, it’s Iron Man 2. ;P

By the way, I’ve came up with an excellent idea to spice up this blog. Stay tuned for it.

Good night, dear readers. So tired but still so hyper.

Nice Weekend

Published by under Just For Fun,Life

This weekend ended with a good note. I went to Low Yat just now because the silly boy wants to buy Super Street Fighter 4 for PS3. Also, I wanted to look at laptop bags.

After walking and walking around the mall, I got really bored. All the laptop bags are so “manly”. They don’t have many backpacks that are female-friendly. It’s either too big for my Mac or too fugly for me to carry. The silly boy got agitated because he couldn’t get a good price for the game too. We gave up and headed back to Subang.

I suggested to go to Digital Mall to check it out because it’s on our way. That’s where I found my bag!! :) It’s in red, my lucky color.

Thank you, ddabs for the bag. :* I love it!

************************

Last night, I went for late night movie with XCool and two of my fookies. Initially, I thought I’ve managed to book Ip Man 2 and was so excited about it. I even arrange for a big group of 6 pax. When I was about to buy the ticket, the sales person said it’s for Wednesday night and Ip Man 2 is not played yet. I almost crushed. Felt so sorry and immediately called my friends to let them know. This is not the first time I screw mess up cinema’s seat reservations. I think I’ll let others do the work next time. lol. We ended up watching that local show Ice Kacang, which turned out to be quite good. It’s funny and brings back a lot of nostalgic/childhood memories. Just a little rough in the edges but not bad, I would say.

************************

I managed to convince XCool to practice using only positive words from now on. I kind of think that we’ve been using a lot of negative words and somehow it affects me. It’s funny how we try to use different word to describe something that we could have use a bad word to describe. :D

iPad!

Published by under Just For Fun

Ooo… somebody’s got his iPad. :) It’s really cool and bravo to Apple for giving all the attention to details. And yes… he is turning me into an Apple fan. While he was raving about the iPad’s functionality, all I can think about was how much $$ making opportunity this brings. Haha.

This is me playing one of my fav game…. Bejeweled!





By the way, I think all those Facebook games are such a waste of time. I’ve seen some people spending half a day playing those. Do you know how much you can do with half a day’s time? Time is the most precious thing you can have, give or take for someone. Don’t waste it! I play Bejeweled when I am taking a rest or needed to release some tension. Even so, I usually play for a while…nothing more than 10 mins.

Retail Therapy

Published by under Just For Fun

Every Wednesday is our go-out-drink-coffee-watch-movie day. The movie for today is When In Rome. It’s a pretty entertaining and funny chick flick. The kind of movie I enjoy watching.

After the movie, we hung out at our new found favorite hang out place. In fact, I am writing this entry sitting here. While XCool was working on his iPad projects, I got bored and decided to go for some….Retail Therapy!! Ahh… I’ve been dying to shop for a while now. Couldn’t help myself and bought a few things. I guess it’s okay to splurge a little on the person I love the most…. me! :) I realize these days I prefer to shop for colorful clothes. Perhaps wearing colorful clothes make me feel happier.

Alright…time to think of what to eat for dinner.

I love my Wednesdays. ^^

Crispy Pancakes

Published by under Just For Fun

I’m back from my holiday with XCool! Tiring but really awesome.

On Tuesday morning, we drove to Parit Buntar early morning together with Kok Liang, my friend. Stopped there to take care of some business. After that Kok Liang stayed back in Parit Buntar while XCool and I continued our journey to Penang Island. We spent three days exploring, relaxing and eating.




First day, we took it slow and easy. Drove around to chow down some yummy food. All the available food blogs on the Internet really helped us. All we need to do is to key in the address/coordinates into XCool’s GPS and off we go. “In 750m, keep left then keep right”




On the second day, we covered a few places. Started off with Kek Lok Si, followed by Khoo Kongsi. Look whose name I found :D Mr. Khoo’s! He was in a lot of pictures, together with all other Khoos.





After lunch, I had an appointment to meet KM and Mr Khoo at Sovereign Wealth Management office. Haven’t seen both of them for some time.

Soon after, we proceeded with our eating expedition and then it was beach time! Didn’t really play in the beach because we weren’t comfortable swimming there. Instead, we swam in our hotel’s pool.








The whole time, I was thinking about the brown sugar crispy pancake. I even SMS’ed my friend Alex Lee to ask about the location. I went to the stall he brought us to before but it was not opened! Drove round and round. It seems like all pancake stalls made an agreement to rest on Wednesday. At least that was what the auntie who sold us Pasembur told us at the Georgetown market. Haha.

With the feeling of incomplete and total dissatisfaction, I pestered XCool on Wednesday night. On our way to dinner, we passed by this shop houses which look very familiar. If I remembered correctly, that was the place my sister and I bought the brown sugar pancakes on one of our trips many years ago. This morning, we drove to that place and bingo!!! The uncle was standing there making those lovely pancakes I have been craving for. XCool took a photo of the happy me buying them. Oh so yummy!





All in all, I have a very good trip and I’m back in KL. Things will change again. I have been enlightened with some new inspiration and it’s time to make some changes again. Wish me luck!

Thank you, Universe! I will work harder and smarter!

I already started catching up with my business issues today. Just had a very unhappy conversation with an agent. @#$#$$%%^^&*^&*#! I shouted at him. He tried to threaten me! I think I probably slipped out some profanity. Opps. I mean… who does he think he is? I am his customer. Not only did he not protect my rights, he wants to threaten me now and claims that I took him as a fool?! He is the one who took me as a fool. @#$%$%&! You can’t threaten me. Easy. Just stop the business deal and refund my money. I may suffer for a while but my business can live without you. Idiot. I spoke to another agent who has been nice to me all this while. In fact, I chatted so long with him that we went into a little further than required. He’s going to help me with something else. :) See… good people are everywhere. Just need to know how to find them.

*******************

Ooo.. by the way, XCool’s first iPad app has been approved. It will be available in the App Store when iPad is launched. So happy for him!

All this happened while we were on our holiday. How great is that? :)

Correction

Published by under Just For Fun

Correction on my post “New Addition“. XCode is the Intergrated Development Environment for iPhone programming. Not the programming language. The programming language used is called Objective C.

Yes. He read my blog and quickly highlighted my mistake. Ish!

Holiday tomorrow!!! :D

Fun Day

Published by under Just For Fun,Life

Just got home from a super long and fun day. Woke up early in the morning to do a spot check on my staff. Very soon, XCool picked me up and we drove all the way to KL city center.

I gave a surprise lunch visit for my UOB ex-colleagues. Oh, how I miss them! Jolly good time catching up. There were more than 10 of them!

After lunch, we sent the Nintendo Wii Console XCool bought for me to be repaired in one of the gaming shops around that area. (Yay! Will get to play Wii again very very soon! :P ). Then, XCool and I continued our day in The Gardens Midvalley. He needed to attend a business meeting at 6pm so we hung out in Borders Starbucks to pass our time. Midway, I sneaked out to shop and got myself a new top. ^^

At 6pm, we met up with his business associates. After the meeting, we decided to catch “Up In The Air” in The Gardens Signature Cinema. The last time we went there was during one of our earliest dates. I forgot how comfortable the couch-like seats are. The cinema is really cold though. Note to self: Bring cardigan/pashmina when revisiting this cinema.

Thank you, Universe, for the wonderful day! Also, thank you again for honoring my request. I can see that the opportunities are continuous and fruitful.

Design 1: Done!

Published by under Just For Fun

Yay! such a noob in using sophisticated software like Pixelmator. I ended up using Keynote, Preview and Pixelmator to get what I want. Haha. Hey… it works. That’s all that matters.

Finding Wonderland

“A very merry unbirthday to you…to you”. This tune is ringing in my head. It was from the cartoon Alice in Wonderland by Disney, which I loved to watch when I was young. Last evening, XCool and I caught the new released Alice in Wonderland (in 3D) at TheCurve. It was a fun movie to watch. Bravo, Disney! One thing though, I thought the White Queen looks scary with the black makeup. Tsk tsk. So, where is my Wonderland? I imagine it to be quite different. Hmm…..

Look what I’ve “ninja”-ed from XCool. His iPod Touch. ;)

On Monday night, I went out for dinner with a dear fookie friend. I told her how much free time I have now and that I don’t know what to do with it. I can’t pick up another full time business/work because I still need to spend some time on my shop once in a while. She told me, ” well, get out there and start networking again.” That’s when I realised…oh no! I haven’t been networking!

She’s right. I should. I have been so focused on my business and love life, I’ve stopped networking. Shame on me. Okay. It’s time to get back out there.

Universe, please bring more positive people into my life. Thank you, Universe!

Meanwhile, I found a hobby which I would like to try my hands on. I’ve been reading and watching out for it. ^^
