Movie => Indiana Jones & The Kingdom of Crystal Skull
I had a chance to watch the premiere of Indiana Jones as my friends git themselves a ticket for me to the movie.. This movie is the talk of the town for quite a while, plus the ticket is free (hehehe!), and I've already seen most the interesting movies at the cinema.. why not just sit tight and watch the movie, eh? 
Synopsis:
In 1957, Indiana Jones is thrust back in action, venturing into the jungles of South America in a race against Soviet agents to find the mystical Crystal Skull.

*** For someone who expects wonders from this film.. forget it! it's just a cliche series of Indian Jones movies you should and can expect.. But anyway.. it is really entertaining as I think they succeed in making the movie more interesting and worth the money spent.. Some illogical parts here and there.. but still entertaining.. enjoyed the rets of the movie though! Just don't bring the kids to the movie as they might get bored and either cry or make noise throughout the movie.. heheh!

MU vs. Chelsea finale
Did anybody not watch last nite’s games between MU and Chelsea? I bet most of us did.. the heat is on.. the radios were heating up with all those game’s prediction and opinions and feedback on what’s their predictions and stuff.. I decided to watch the game at Hartamas Square.. with the rest of others.. and I guess this is when you got all the spirits for the game and all..
I didn’t manage to get the photos there as my phone is out of battery and so does my friends’ phones.. what a coincidence kan.. That’s ok though.. I’m neither gonna comment on how they played nor say bad things about MU.. just to share how celebrative the environment was in Sri Hartamas last nite..
And as predicted.. MU is the Champion’s League Winner 07/08.. MU beats Chelsea 6-5 on penalty kicks to win European soccer's Champions League last night..
Congratulations to MU on the victory! Anyway.. I’m not that die-hard football fan.. but I surely think that Chelsea played better last night.. and the winning team won simply because of the situation, and luck.. heheheh! Sorry MU fans! heheh! Enjoyed most of the games though.. (Photos courtesy of www.manutd.com)

Lessons In Life
Thanks to Puan Sri for the email..
Lesson 1:
A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.
The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs.
When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbor.
Before she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel.'
After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob, after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.
The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.
When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, 'Who was that?'
'It was Bob the next door neighbor,' she replies.
'Great,' the husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?'
Moral of the story:
If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.
Lesson 2:
A priest offered a Nun a lift.
She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg.
The priest nearly had an accident.
After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg.
The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'
The priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again.
The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'
The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak.'
Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way.
On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.'
Moral of the story:
If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.
Lesson 3:
A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp.
They rub it and a Genie comes out.
The Genie says, 'I'll give each of you just one wish.'
'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk. 'I want to be in the Bah amas , driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.'
Puff! She's gone.
'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep. 'I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.'
Puff! He's gone.
'OK, you're up,' the Genie says to the manager.
The manager says, 'I want those two back in the office after lunch.'
Moral of the story:
Always let your boss have the first say.
Lesson 4
An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing.
A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?'
The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.'
So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.
Moral of the story:
To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
Lesson 5
A turkey was chatting with a bull.
'I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.'
'Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients'
The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.
The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch.
Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.
He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.
Moral of the story:
Bull Shit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there..
Lesson 6
A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field.
While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him.
As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was.
The dung was actually thawing him out!
He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.
A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.
Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.
Morals of the story:
(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.
(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your
friend.
(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep
your mouth shut!

It is a yearly event for Mr Klang Parade event..

You can see those contestants backstage.. preparing themselves for the stage..
and some personal poses that we managed to snap during the competition..
The guy's name is Ubai.. he is one of the winner of this competition.. nice body definition, eh? 
I used to do weight lifting quite some time ago.. for fun only... until when my arm is broken, I have no choice than to stay staill and forget about weight lifting and stiuff for at least 1.5 years.. at least that's what advised by doctors.. or I won't be able to recover..
Nice pose of the bodybuilder..
So jealous and really envy those beautiful bodies that these bodybuilders shown here.. and I do hope to start back with my gym soon.. and redo back all my routines and stuff..

Makan2 @ Janda Baik
We stopped by at Janda Baik village to find something to eat for tea.. and what we found was a small stall that sells fried banana and laksa.. 
so we chose to stop and had laksa for tea time..
The Cendol is rather fulfilling.. and it's very2 cheap too.. 
We immediately continued our journey back to KL after the fulfilling laksa..
