There once was a very good barber in New York City. One day, a florist goes to him for a haircut. As he is about to pay, the barber says, "I am sorry. I cannot accept money from you. I am doing community service."
The florist is happy and leaves the shop.
The next morning, when the barber goes to open his shop, there is a thank you card and a dozen roses at his door.
A policeman goes to the same barber and, again, the barber refuses payment. The cop is happy and leaves the shop.
The next morning, when the barber goes to open his shop, there is a thank you card and a dozen doughnuts waiting.
A Malaysian software engineer goes for a haircut and he, too, is told the same thing. The Malaysian software engineer is happy and leaves the shop.
Can you guess what happens the next morning when the barber goes to open his shop? Come on, think like a Malaysian...
A dozen Malaysians waiting for a free haircut!

Random Pictures of Food
I've been taking pictures of food from different restaurants during those few months of outings with my UTAR friends. I love going out with you guys! But of course, it means I'll have to spend $$$. LOL! It's ok..I don't mind spending once in a while.
Here are the random pictures I took. These pictures have been in my mobile phone for so long so I thought it's time to post them in this blog. Let's drool together! Yeah!
p/s: Don't compare me with Giant's food blog la. I just bought this camera phone so I didn't take as many picture as that food lover Giant.

Cakes!!!! From Food Foundry, Happy Mansion.

Real or Hoax?
My friend sent me this e-mail and I've decided to check on it's credibility since I'm an active facebook user. As I expected, the possibility that this e-mail's a HOAX is high. Yes. I think it's another HOAX just like the previous hotmail chain letter which I refused to send, knowing it couldn't be true ( and my hotmail account has not been deleted after years of deleting that e-mail. XD)
Attention all Facebook users
Facebook is recently becoming very overpopulated,
There have been many members complaining that Facebook
is becoming very slow.Record shows that the reason is
that there are too many non-active Facebook members
And on the other side too many new Facebook members.
We will be sending this messages around to see if the
Members are active or not,If you're active please send
to 15 other users using Copy+Paste to show that you are active
Those who do not send this message within 2 weeks,
The user will be deleted without hesitation to create more space,
If Facebook is still overpopulated we kindly ask for donations but until then send this message to all your friends and make sure you send
message to show me that your active and not deleted.
Founder of Facebook
Mark Zuckerbe
I google search the name "Mark Zuckerbe" and found some pretty interesting answers from other facebook users to prove that this e-mail is just a HOAX. I couldn't agree more with the following answers I got from Yahoo!Answers:
First off, if it was real, they would send it themselves to everyone from FACEBOOK, and not someone claiming to be the creator of Facebook. Second, they misspelled the guy's name. The ACTUAL creator of Facebook is named Mark Zuckerberg, not Mark Zuckerbe. I highly doubt he would misspell his own name! Also, there are typos all over the place. They used the wrong form of "you're" in the last sentence. They said your, when it's actually correct to say, you're, plus numerous other errors all over. I don't think an official message would have that many typos! Also, it's VERY apparent when someone isn't using their facebook, and no one goes over these by hand. There are way too many accounts for that. A computer does it automatically. A computer records every login and logout and time online, not to mention EVERY action you make on facebook, so sending a message regardless of what it says is the same as doing any other action on facebook. No one is reading your messages. There is actually protocol that after a certain amount of inactive time (I believe one year) your account will automatically be deleted. Also, facebook is one of the single most popular (and thus well-funded) websites in the entire world. They have no problems getting server space. Hope this clears that up!

Another useful points worth of considering:
1. Would facebook clear its users when one of the main factors of its revenue would be the number of users? As an entrepreneur, facebook would never delete a profile of a person (I would presume), with a belief that he/she may wish to restore its activity (who may have interrupted the activity of his/her activity due to different, reasonable excuses: vacation to an inhabited island :), some reason which would cause temporary inability to use computer or internet, like illness, abstention from using social networks because it distracts your schedule too much, and even ones who would try to stop using just to see whether their profile would be removed.). Would Facebook unjustly violate the hopes of these people, who, returning after their journey, or discharged from the hospital, find, or better, will not find their profiles at their habitual place. Would Facebook risk to damage its image, its pocket, referring only to a repletion of its servers?
2. Wouldn't facebook use more trustworthy mean of communication on such an IMPORTANT matter, like sending message to users' Inbox directly by the Company and not using a chain letter system (I'm not IT specialist, but relying on my general knowledge I can assume this is possible)? They should know that any user's reasonable mind would find such content suspicious and would be in a state of hesitation, so they would use other, more appropriate and more reliable mean to deliver this kind of notification.
3. Social networks have, as one of their misisons, an aim to spread by attracting more users. How can they justify a slowdown of its functioning by overcrowding when overcrowding IS their entreprenual purpose. This construction of sentence looks more like an anti-commercial or a way of backbiting by its competitor/s.
Also, would Facebook use such the unprofessional grammatical structure with obvious punctuation marks missing, and sign at the end as "Creator of Facebook" which for many may sound a little haughty?
Answering these questions would push you to a more confident side, which would suggest that the message is a spam. But you take the final decision...
Sincerely,
Ahmed -- a rare user of Facebook.

Obviously, it's a HOAX, isn't it? So Please...check out on an e-mail's credibility before forwarding it, okay? Don't give unnecessary false alarms. It's really just a waste of time and energy.

Irasshaimase
Irasshaimase!!
That's the first thing the staffs in "Antique" would say to their customers.
I've been very much into Japanese dramas, anime and manga lately. It must be due to the fact that I'm attending Japanese classes this semester. Taihen desu ne!! Well, actually it's an elective. I can either take Japanese or Chinese. After much consideration, I've decided to take Chinese BUT attend both Chinese and Japanese classes. Say, it's not an easy task. My schedule seems to be fully packed with Japanese, Chinese and Malaysian Literature classes. I'm probably the only one who goes for all three classes. Yeah...call me "gatal".
Seriously, I'm not sure if I can juggle through all three subjects but I'll surely try my very best! It's a challenge! yeah! Gambate ne!!
Almost forgot to thank Irene sensei! Arigato gozaimashita!
I'm getting really interested in Japanese (although we're learning at a very fast pace. *pants*). And what's more, the mangas (thanks 'yibun' for recommending Ouran), animes and dramas make it more interesting than it is now.
I just finish watching a very nice Japanese drama- "Antique" アンテイク. It is a story evolving around 3...no, 4 handsome but silly and funny men working in a patisserie-the Antique. I like the decoration of Antique, which is quite westernize. However.....I Love the cakes more!! LOL!! >.< I would like to make those cakes too..erm..if i know how.. XD
*back to normal*
Ahem! Sorry for the 'abnormal behaviour'. So...where am I? oh yeah...Antique is a heart-warming story about what happened to the staffs and customers of Antique. It seems that everyone has their own past and secrets. Slowly, the pasts are divulged and all of them, as one good 'family' (well, they look like a family although they are just colleagues), one by one their problems are solved. They are tested on their friendship, patience and so on...
The 3 main characters.

The 3 main characters.
Left- Keisuke (or Keiichirō) Tachibana. The owner of Antique who was kidnapped when he was 9 years old. Opened Antique although he doesn't like cakes. All he remembers is that his kidnappers always bought him yummy cakes. Although superior in Antique, he's constantly bullied by his workers. XD *and he always has exaggerated reactions. lol!*
Middle- Eiji Kanda. A former boxing player who has a sweet tooth. He's also blunt in personality. He joined Antique after being forced to withdraw from the sports he likes most. *erm...he actually forced the patissier of Antique to teach him bake cakes without even paying the slightest attention to the boss XD*. He is an orphan who couldn't remember much about his parents. His parents, died when he was still small, were famous patissiers. After his arrival to Antique, the patisserie becomes more lively. although he's the one who bullies the boss the most! Poor boss!!
Right- Yusuke Ono. The genius patissier who is capable of attracting customers to Antique with his yummy, yummy, yummy, cakes! (including Eiji). Although fully-skilled in making cakes, he's incapable of dealing with women (due to his past). Always mistaken as a gay. *there's a reason to this*. Also capable of making his boss obey him. *poor,poor boss!*

Behind (wearing glasses) - Chikage Kobayakawa. Keisuke's childhood friend (also sort of servant). He's being trained as a waiter at Antique after Eiji. However, he is very klutzy.
And last but not least....The CAKES!!! Kudos to the genius pattisier!!
I only manage to find these pictures...They are many more nicer looking cakes in the drama...
Created after a sick girl who has an ambition to be a patissier died. It has become a permanent cake in Antique since.
One of the cakes in Antique...
One of a regular customer's favourite. that customer has some connection to the boss's kidnap case
More cakes from Antique...

稻香
A new song from Jay Chou's latest album 魔杰座. Not only is the melody nice but the lyric is also meaningful.
For those who do not know Chinese, do not worry. I have added pinyin and translation so that it will be easier for you to read it. ;)

If you have too many complaints about this world,
You've fallen down and don't dare to continue forward
Why must you become this weak, this degraded?
Please turn on your TV and see
How many people are struggling to courageously go forward.
Shouldn't we be contented with what we have?
Cherish all even if you don't possess it.
Still remember when you said home was your only palace.
Running through the fragrant rice fields and flowing rivers,
Happily smiling, I know these childhood dreams.
Don't cry. Let the fireflies take you away,
Leaning forever on the countryside´s ballad.
Go back home. Go back to the initial beauty.
That care-free happiness,
Barefooted in the fields chasing after dragonflies until tired out,
Stealing fruits, making the bees sting until you are frightened. Who was laughing?
I fell asleep resting against the scarecrows blowing in the wind, singing songs.
Wo Wo In the afternoon the guitar is clearer in the midst of the bugs singing.
Wo Wo Sunshine spills onto the street, making me not afraid of heartbreak.
Cherish it all even if you don't possess it.
Still remember when you said home was your only palace.

Hi-tech Towel
Taken at a beach resort in Desaru. I put this in a new post because I think it's worthy of it. Now, can you spot what's wrong with it?? XD
To The Beach
Finally get to go to the beach!! I've been waiting for the day to the beach since the exam week. haha! Sorry roommate, I went without you since it was a sudden plan by my parents. We went to the beach which are very very familiar to us. It was one of the destinations I visited most (after Genting Highland, which remains at the top of my "the place I visited most" list) -- Desaru.
We always went to Desaru when my dad would borrow tents from his school. I still remembered how the tents are usually 'holey'. Imagine how it's like when it rains... >_<
A little hut by the beach
Looking out at the sea
This is just too cute!! Daddy & Mummy playing "Indian dance". XD
