Makan2 @ Restoran Pantai Dalam
I donno what the restaurant is called, but I'm pretty sure that people around Bangsar, especially the Syabas, TNB and Telekom people are quite familiar with this place.. quite a big place with rows of dishes they offer..
The really traditional Dikir Barat song accompanying the customers who's lunching here.. and lots of varieties of dishes to choose, from gulai kawah to ikan bakar and almost everything.. Check out what we had! 

Quite delicious for the traditional Kelantan Delights.. no wonder the place is pack during lunch hours.. check out the place!

Fantastic Natural Phenomena...!!!
The classical natural wonders are huge and hard to miss - vast canyons, giant mountains and the like.. Many of the most fantastic natural phenomena, however, are also least easy to spot. Some are incredibly rare while others are located in hard-to-reach parts of the planet. From moving rocks to mammatus clouds and red tides to fire rainbows, here are seven of the most spectacular phenomenal wonders of the natural world.
1) Sailing Stones
The mysterious moving stones of the packed-mud desert of Death Valley have been a center of scientific controversy for decades. Rocks weighing up to hundreds of pounds have been known to move up to hundreds of yards at a time. Some scientists have proposed that a combination of strong winds and surface ice account for these movements. However, this theory does not explain evidence of different rocks starting side by side and moving at different rates and in disparate directions. Moreover, the physics calculations do not fully support this theory as wind speeds of hundreds of miles per hour would be needed to move some of the stones.
2) Columnar Basalt
When a thick lava flow cools it contracts vertically but cracks perpendicular to its directional flow with remarkable geometric regularity - in most cases forming a regular grid of remarkable hexagonal extrusions that almost appear to be made by man. One of the most famous such examples is the Giant's Causeway on the coast of Ireland (shown above) though the largest and most widely recognized would be Devil's Tower in Wyoming . Basalt also forms different but equally fascinating ways when eruptions are exposed to air or water.
3) Blue Holes (of Belize)
Blue holes are giant and sudden drops in underwater elevation that get their name from the dark and foreboding blue tone they exhibit when viewed from above in relationship to surrounding waters. They can be hundreds of feet deep and while divers are able to explore some of them they are largely devoid of oxygen that would support sea life due to poor water circulation - leaving them eerily empty. Some blue holes, however, contain ancient fossil remains that have been discovered, preserved in their depths.
4) Red Tides
Red tides are also known as algal blooms - sudden influxes of massive amounts of colored single-cell algae that can convert entire areas of an ocean or beach into a blood red color. While some of these can be relatively harmless, others can be harbingers of deadly toxins that cause the deaths of fish, birds and marine mammals. In some cases, even humans have been harmed by red tides though no human exposure are known to have been fatal. While they can be fatal, the constituent phytoplankton in ride tides are not harmful in small numbers.
5) Ice Circles
While many see these apparently perfect ice circles as worthy of conspiracy theorizing, scientists generally accept that they are formed by eddies in the water that spin a sizable piece of ice in a circular motion. As a result of this rotation, other pieces of ice and flotsam wear relatively evenly at the edges of the ice until it slowly forms into an essentially ideal circle. Ice circles have been seen with diameters of over 500 feet and can also at times be found in clusters and groups at different sizes as shown above.
6) Mammatus Clouds
True to their ominous appearance, mammatus clouds are often harbingers of a coming storm or other extreme weather system. Typically composed primarily of ice, they can extend for hundreds of miles in each direction and individual formations can remain visibly static for ten to fifteen minutes at a time. While they may appear foreboding they are merely the messengers - appearing around, before or even after severe weather.
7) Fire Rainbows
A circumhorizontal fire rainbow arc occurs at a rare confluence of right time and right place for the sun and certain clouds. Crystals within the clouds refract light into the various visible waves of the spectrum but only if they are arrayed correctly relative to the ground below. Due to the rarity with which all of these events happen in conjunction with one another, there are relatively few remarkable photos of this phenomena.

The 7 Dangerous Act after meal
DON'T ACT THE 7 ACTIONS BELOW AFTER YOU HAVE A MEAL
* Don't smoke- Experiment from experts proves that smoking a cigarette after meal is comparable to smoking 10 cigarettes (chances of cancer is higher)
* Don't eat fruits immediately - Immediately eating fruits after meals will cause stomach to be bloated with air. Therefore take fruit 1-2 hr after meal or 1hr before meal.
* Don't drink tea - Because tea leaves contain a high content of acid. This substance will cause the Protein content in the food we consume to be hardened thus difficult to digest.
* Don't loosen your belt - Loosening the belt after a meal will easily cause the intestine to be twisted & blocked.
* Don't bathe - Bathing after meal will cause the increase of blood flow to the hands, legs & body thus the amount of blood around the stomach will therefore decrease. This will weaken the digestive system in our stomach.
* Don't walk about - People always say that after a meal walk a hundred steps and you will live till 99. In actual fact this is not true. Walking will cause the digestive system to be unable to absorb the nutrition from the food we intake.
* Don't sleep immediately - The food we intake will not be able to digest properly. Thus will lead to gastric & infection in our intestine.
p/s: Then.. what to do? thank god i quit smoking long2 time ago..hehehe!

The kids are running around like nobody's business, and enjoyed the show like never before.. 



A few satisfied and damn tired faces at the end of the journey.. 
but I'm sure the kids enjoyed their day.. WIll do another outing again soon..


though the ticket is getting slightly higher than last year, but still it's worth the money spent..

So the hunt for a new sofa begins.. Checked out Cavenzi and a few other places.
So should it be this one?
or this one?
or this one?
or this one?
or this one?

Craving for Ikea's Meatball
It's Thursday, and I've been planning to go to Ikea for quite a while for their meatball and salmon meal.. so I immediately rush to Ikea for a nice dinner while waiting for my friend to join me later..
It was only then I realized that the portion is getting smaller compared to last year.. but still worth the money paid.. Delicious, cheap and quality food with very cozy environment for dining..
Sometimes I wonder, how can they sell these meals for quite a cheap price.. big order at smaller price, later for a big production with not to big profit maybe? May be it's part of their ways of giving back to the community.. May be it's their strategy to welcome more people to Ikea.. but one thing for sure, I seem to be enjoying it very much.. and I bet many more are sharing the same thoughts with me..

Movie => Jennifer's Body
Jennifer's Body is showing in GSC now.. and this is the movie I wanna watch, simply because Megan Fox stars in that movie.. Pretty sexy thing still looks charming being a ghost..
Not much of a must watch movie, the overall movie is just lame and boring and nothing to be proud of.. Even the lovey duvey movie Twilight seems to be better than this..
But the production is really exploiting Megan Fox to ensure people go and watch the movie.. and people who are stupid and crazily in love with Megan Fox will go for this movie to simply watch her.. like me! hahaha.. Just ok-ok movie I can say..
Can't wait for 2012 movie coming soon..
