M Hotel The Buffet 出現狀況

My girlfriend's family invited me for a dinner at M Hotel The Buffet which is 火鍋 style. They said it is very nice and popular. When we reached, we were showed to a place. After a while, 狀況一 happened. The soup does not boil after waiting for a while. Then the manager replaced the electric stove with a gas stove. 狀況二 happened. The gas stove out of gas! 呵呵﹗The manager looks apologetic and changed our table. Then he offered to give us a complementary free flow of drinks as compensation. Not bad considering per person for the drink costs $7! Overall, the food is nice but I feel variety is not a huge. Try the herbal prawn which is very chewy!

Lobster porridge 好吃﹗

My family and I went to visit my relative and there is a restaurant located near her house selling 龍蝦粥。She said it is very nice and insisted to give us a treat. So we ordered this 龍蝦粥 and indeed it is very nice. The 龍蝦 is rather meaty and the porridge tastes very sweet! This restaurant is visited by many artistes such as Zoe and Fann. It is the first unit of Bah Soon Pah road.

霉事一籮筐 A bad month

禍不單行﹗Lately, I am extremely tough luck. I got ticket within a span of two weeks. I hope those who gave me that, something nasty will happen to them. Ok, I am bad. 呵呵﹗Then, I returned the library books but the their record did not reflect. Wow! Until now still not yet settle. Sigh... Really need to 拜拜﹗

神槍手 Typical Hong Kong Police Story

At first, I do not really wanted to watch this show as I feel it is a 典型香港警匪片。But my friend wanted to catch it. 神槍手 talks about one ace sniper 黃曉明 taking revenge on another ace sniper 任賢齊。陳冠希 comparatively has a much lesser on screen time. However, he is an important character in the show. Overall, it is not as bad as I thought it would be. The show is quite exciting. But expect a 典型香港警匪片。

Knowing 虎頭蛇尾

Knowing maybe can be summarized as:"The New Noah's Ark". This show got a strong hint of Christianity. The setting of the mood of this movie is good. It is quite creepy at first. But towards the end, the plot is getting a bit absurd. The story is a bit innovative but I dun see the need for Nicholas Cage character. 值得一提 is the special effects. The 災難場面 are extremely well done! This show is watchable at least for the sake of the special effects. 呵呵﹗

生平第一台手機 Nokia 2110

最近大掃除 and found my 失散多年 mobile phone - Nokia 2110. It is the first mobile phone I bought in 1997! Time flies! This 古董 is 12 years old! At that time, no colour screen at all. It has very simple functions. Unlike now which is features packed!

Confessions of a Shopaholic 娛樂百分百

Confessions of a Shopaholic is a typical chick flick kind of movie. At first, I thought it will be some senseless show. But 出人意料, this show is rather nice. The plot is simple but the performance is rather 搞笑。The lead actress Isla Fisher is a cross between Nicole Kidman and Anna Faris. If you need to unwind, you may wish to get entertained by watching this show.

龍的傳人 Dragon 花車

I was walking towards Bio canteen and saw this dragon 花車 which is featured in this year 妝藝大遊行。This 花車 is an effort by NTU students and able to 噴火﹗Give them 掌聲鼓勵鼓勵﹗

重溫舊夢 Playing arcade

I love to go 打游戲機 since my college time. The game I played the most is Street Fighter. Until now I still like the game. Lately, my cousin suddenly 心血來潮 dragged me to arcade center. At first we just change $2 token and decided to leave once we used them up. But who knows we are hooked to a rambo shooting game and changed over $20 tokens just to complete the game! 簡直是 crazy! But 很久沒那麼 high 了﹗呵呵﹗

清明時節雨紛紛 Tomb Sweeping Day

The once a year 清明節 is here. My family and I will 環島追追追 on this day as we need to pay respect to our ancestors in three different places. The first will be at 萬里火化場。Then, we need to go to 斐龍山 followed by 林厝港墳地。It usually need a whole day to visit these places. I quite like 清明節 as it allows me to know about my ancestors. This also give my family a chance to be together for a whole day as a family outing.

新衣裳 Leather casing for my LG

I was lately looking high and low for my new LG phone a covering. It is a fight between a leather casing and a silicone casing. At first I prefer the silicone casing, but leather casing got a more 專業人士 feel. So in the end, I lead towards the leather casing. But I am still wondering if I made a correct choice. 不買都買了。So I have to appreciate it.

老掉牙 But 緊湊的 Race To Witch Mountain

I know of people actually thought Race To Witch Mountain talks about fantasy movie which involves magical power. Well, they are half right? It actually a story of a pair of alien siblings (which looks like human and have super power) crashed landed onto Earth. Their mission is to find an item that can save Earth from invaded by their own kind. The story is a bit 老掉牙 but luckily 勝在 the story flows. You will not feel bored by the speed of the movie. However, get prepared to expect predictable story plot and B-grade special effects. Though say that, it is still quite a watchable show.

My New 手機 LG Viewty KU990R

My old mobile phone Sony Ericsson K770i is going history as the keypad is having problem. As a replacement phone for my 2nd line, I do not want to spend too much money and hope to get a value for money phone. Here comes LG Viewty KU990R! Singtel online store is selling for only $48! 可说是价廉物美！Best of all, it fits my criteria! At least a 5MP phone, a touchscreen phone and costs less than $100. I bought the white one and it looks really great!

I am a 病貓

I have been sick for the past 4 days. Initially is sore throat, then slowly become flu. Finally, it changes to cough. This cough is really persistent! I have tried eating 琵琶膏 and some cough syrup from pharmacy. But still no use. Until I try Woods cough syrup, my cough lessen a bit. Finally, I tried a 神奇 cough mixture, I am cured after drinking 2 times! But until now I dun dare to anyhow eat things. I think I will try to eat lightly for another 2 weeks. 呵呵﹗

Glass "Exploded"! 恐怖經驗

I ordered a cup of 茶烏 and a bowl of 魚粥 for my lunch at a coffee shop. While eating halfway, the cup of 茶烏 suddenly "exploded" in front of me!! I was shocked and my trousers is drenched with 茶烏﹗The shattered glass flew around and some landed in my 魚粥﹗The coffee shop owner quickly comes and picks up the glass. The waiter cleans the table and mops the floor. Then, I was offered a new bowl of 魚粥 but they did not offered me a new cup of 茶烏。But I still 心有餘悸。So even they offered me a new cup of 茶烏, I dunno if I dare to drink. But 不幸中的大幸﹐I was not hurt. 謝天謝地﹗

IT Show: 空手而歸

IT Show 2009 is here again. As usual, I always like to go on the last day to take a look. I have nothing in mind this time round. I just company my girlfriend to buy her laptop. She is eyeing on Asus. As compared to previous computer fair, this time round I find there are more people. Maybe due to recession, more people come to fair to 撿便宜貨。I wanted to see the latest Asus 24" LCD monitor. Guess what? The sales person told me all Asus LCD monitors are sold out on the first day of the show. 簡直是瘋狂﹗In the end, I went home empty handed. Haha. I guess I have to wait till June.

MOF 甜品

I have been walking past many MOF restaurants but always did not get a chance to go in and eat. Finally, I got a chance to venture into this is a Japanese restaurant which their specialty is in ice cream. There are many 口味 but I prefer their sesame ice cream. Mocha 綠茶 flavour is also
nice.

K Box: 卡拉永遠OK

I have not been to karaoke for a long time. My friend suddenly 心血來潮 asked me to k 歌﹗We went to K Box which is one of the big players locally. But the price is forever expensive. We sang about 4 hours, 2 drinks each and unlimited refilled of nuts. This costs us about $32 per person! Since it is once in a blue moon, so I still can accept.

Dinner & Dance 沒有多收穫

This year my company dinner & dance I brought home less things compared to last year. Last year, I managed to win 2 awards. 1 is personal and another is group award for my performance in company. Then I won a Samsung mp3 player in lucky draw. But this year, I only managed to win a group award. 最遺憾 is I did not win any lucky draw! This year 獎品 very 豐富﹗Got iPhone, iPod Nano, iTouch, Netbook, 37" Lcd TV, PSP, etc.. Hope to be luckier next year!

Suspect X 容疑者Xの献身: 故事慢長

I always love Japanese detective story. They are so creative and interesting. So when I heard that this show is about how Physics or Maths is used for the killing, I am very excited and imagine a psycho killer goes about killing people using Physics or Maths theory. But I am very wrong.

The story talks about how one murder took place and how it actually happened which a tiny bit related to Maths philosophy. If you thinking of 金田一 kind of story, forget it. The killer is already known and just that how the actual murder plot is unknown. So the whole movie moves extremely slow. The interesting part has to be until the last part the whole thing uncovers and 福山雅治 spills his 推理, then you linked up everything. Other than that, there are not much 高潮。一個亮點 is 堤真一。I like the way he portrays the Maths genius in the movie. Suspect X 容疑者Xの献身 supposed to be a nice show but the way it is told make the movie very bored.
