But on an expedition in Iceland, he and his nephew stumble upon a major discovery that launches them on a thrilling journey deep beneath the Earth's surface, where they travel through never-before-seen worlds and encounter a variety of unusual creatures.
(http://movies.yahoo.com)*** Looking from the I would expect for something more exciting and more thrill than this.. Though the plot is quite loose and the journey is not that long.. it's still a worthy movie to watch..

Theatre => Bukan Dejavu

It's been a long2 time since I last watch theatre.. and the chance to watch the Malay theatre yesterday was something that wont wanna miss..The theatre is called Bukan Dejavu.. starred by some of the famous names in theatre world.. big names like Juhara Ayub, Safura and Jalaludin Hassan acted in the play..It was held in Auditorium DBP.. the new auditorium which is quite famous lately for theatre presentation..The play is about the normal social crisis that happens a lot in Malay community.. the good and the bad.. the evil versus the saint.. how how to deal with it! The play was quite entertaining.. with Juhara Ayub and Sapura being a wonderful actress presenting her role successfully..
Somehow it reminds me of Pi Mai Tang Tu..
Good job to them all!

Movies => HellBoy ll

The movie people are waiting for.. is out in the movies list now.. and I can't wait any longer to watch it.. with a few friends, we went to watch thois movuie at TGV KLCC..Synopsis:
After an ancient truce existing between humankind and the invisible realm of the fantastic is broken, hell on Earth is ready to erupt. A ruthless leader who treads the world above and the one below defies his bloodline and awakens an unstoppable army of creatures. Now, it's up to the planet's toughest, roughest superhero to battle the merciless dictator and his marauders. He may be red. He may be horned. He may be misunderstood. But when you need the job done right, it's time to call in Hellboy.
(http://movies.yahoo.com)*** I personally think this is better than the first one.. and I bet many of Hellboy fans disagree with me.. Al though in some part, it's quite slow and sometimes lost its plot, still I think it's better.. though the love story scenes really distracts the overall movie.. If you wanna go ahead with the love scenes.. get a room.. or come out with another movie.. Hellboy in Love..heheh!

SAP Summit 2008

The venue is within KLCC area.. ..and it's the SAP Summit for this year.. ..a yearly exhibition that gathers all SAP service providers and system integrators from Malaysia to promote their companies for projects in Malaysia and elsewhere.. In Malaysia, SAP system is still in the middle stage where it increasingly becomes more familiar to the rest of the companies and gain more popularity for usage of the system in bigger companies like TM, Petronas and TNB.. who's been using it for quite some time.. Somehow this year's exhibition is not that big compared to last year.. with fewer participants, the involments are more towards the system integration.. which makes it rather unpopular.. or companies are more careful towards spending.. hence resulted in lesser crowd.. We made a quick walk from booth to booth checking out what the companies are offering.. and what gifts they have in store for us..And the most important of all.. their food is marvelous.. a combination of Curried Chicken Wings, Sticky Rice in the leaves ..and Apple Strudels were really superb.. yummy2! Me and food.. can't be separated.. heheh!

Nice Signage In The Toilet

This was taken while I was in Sunway Pyramid yesterday in one of the toilet.. It is such a nice signage.. and being part of the community.. I think Sunway has done a good job for awareness campaign on smoking.. Nice wall along the way to the toilet eh.. makes you do your business in the toilet in peace!

The Midday Accident

I was in the office when suddely a friend got in and mentioned about the accident just outside the cabin..An old Saga was on the road divider after being ambushed by a lorry.. which ends up to be in that position.. thank god the driver is OK.. but I'm sure if the car is not removed by 5.30pm, our fellow overcaring/kepochi Malaysians will queue up and slow down the cars to watch.. and it's gonna be a massive jam soon..I'm counting time for that to happen! heheh!

Movies => Hancock

Another movie to check out in the cinema near you..
HANCOCKSynopsis:
Unpopular superhero Hancock saves the life of a PR executive who attempts to salvage his public image. There are heroes... there are superheroes... and then there's Hancock. With great power comes great responsibility -- everyone knows that -- everyone, that is, but Hancock. Edgy, conflicted, sarcastic, and misunderstood, Hancock's well-intentioned heroics might get the job done and save countless lives, but always seem to leave jaw-dropping damage in their wake. The public has finally had enough -- as grateful as they are to have their local hero, the good citizens of Los Angeles are wondering what they ever did to deserve this guy. Hancock isn't the kind of man who cares what other people think -- until the day that he saves the life of PR executive Ray Embrey, and the sardonic superhero begins to realize that he may have a vulnerable side after all. Facing that will be Hancock's greatest challenge yet -- and a task that may prove impossible as Ray's wife, Mary, insists that he's a lost cause.
(http://movies.yahoo.com)*** Personally, I don't like Will Smith as an actor... I always think he overdo it in most of the film that he acted.. but this time I think he's good in this film.. Hancock is a complete mixture of the whoooo and ahhhhhh elements that completes it.. The whooo factor was during the superpower time and the actions that looks so real.. like the train crash.. the whale throw and car stuck on the antenna of the building.. The Ahhhh factor where the elements of family values, community and personal self-conflicts are well blended in the movie.. nice one! Ohhh.. Charlize Theron is unbelievably lovely too!

Makan2 @ MichaelAngelo Italian Kitchen, Sunway Pyramid

I haven't join the group for lunchtime Makan2 for quite some time.. and when they asked us for lunch in Sunway, I immediately agreed.. The initial plan was actually to go for Naeb Iranian Restaurant, but changed when we got there.. instead we went to the Italian restaurant, MichaelAngelo Italian Kitchen. Situated at the ground floor of the new wing, the restaurant is simply classic.. the decor and ambiance of the restaurant is simple but nice.. We were greeted by a fellow Filipino lady.. who later assisted us with what to order and stuff..
So what do we order? Let's check it out!Lobster and Baby Clam spaghetti - I ordered this! Too simple yet quite nice!
Meatball Spaghetti in Tomato Sauce - this is really lovely! simply yummy!
Rib Eye Steak - so-so laa..
Seafood Baked Rice - looking at the way he eat it.. must be nice!
Pasta in White Sauce - not bad too!The price is quite reasonable.. and the place is nice too for lepak2.. Check out the place if you plan to go for Italian Food..

Movies => Wanted & Get Smart

The normal activities for the week.. movie time! 2 movies were picked based on the popularity and ranking.. Let's check it out!
WANTEDSynopsis:
25-year-old Wes was the most disaffected, cube-dwelling drone the planet had ever known. His boss chewed him out hourly, his girlfriend ignored him routinely and his life plodded on interminably. Everyone was certain this disengaged slacker would amount to nothing. There was little else for Wes to do but wile away the days and die in his slow, clock-punching rut. Until he met a woman named Fox...
(http://movies.yahoo.com)*** Cool stuff! The storyline, the actors, the gadgets, the stunts.. almost everything is perfect.. and I will definitely go and watch it the second time.. worth every penny spent watching the movie! And Angelina Jolie in the movie.. what more can I say.. WOWWWWW!

GET SMARTSynopsis:
Maxwell Smart is on a mission to thwart the latest plot for world domination by the evil crime syndicate known as KAOS. When the headquarters of U.S. spy agency Control is attacked and the identities of its agents compromised, the Chief has no choice but to promote his ever-eager analyst Maxwell Smart, who has always dreamt of working in the field alongside stalwart superstar Agent 23. Smart is partnered instead with the only other agent whose identity has not been compromised: the lovely-but-lethal veteran Agent 99. As Smart and 99 get closer to unraveling KAOS' master plan--and each other--they discover that key KAOS operative Siegfried and his sidekick Shtarker are scheming to cash in with their network of terror. Given little field experience and even less time, Smart--armed with nothing but a few spy-tech gadgets and his unbridled enthusiasm--must defeat KAOS if he is to save the day.
(http://movies.yahoo.com)*** Entertaining in its own way.. light comedy for laughs.. the actor is quite funny and 'The Rock' rocks big time in the movie.. let's not forget Anne Hathaway who is absolutely stunning in the movie.. simply entertaining!

Butterfly In The Garden

I got myslef a few nice fake butterflies for the garden.. courtesy of Puan Sri.. thanks a lot to her for the gift!Those butterflies fit perfectly in my balcony garden.. and it adds the colors to my already beautiful garden (really?? hahaha!)Again.. thanks Puan Sri for the lovely gift!

My New Plants From Cameron Highlands

Seems like my balcony is now full of plants already.. Some cute flowery plants I got from Camerons.. And the very cheap leafy plants from Camerons too.. check out what I got!I'm crazy about plants.. and will keep buying until the balcony is full one day.. hehe! or is it full already? Heheh!

Cameron Highlands Stop-Over

Maktok (granny) is on high fever when I was about to leave the hospital. Mom was by her side at all time to ensure that she is ok.. and I need to go back to KL as I'm working tomorrow.. no choice! taken lots of leaves, annual and emergency leaves before.. so me and another friend headed back to KL slowly in the evening..
It was about 4.30pm.. and as we passed by Simpang Pulai, there are lots of signboards pointing to Cameron Highlands along the way.. out of stressed and unwishful thinking (plus the strong thoughts about strawberries.. hehe!) We diverted the route to Camerons, then go back to KL.
I've never been to Cameron Highlands before.. and being the first time making a way there.. i need to check out the places and ways to go there.. The road is quite narrow.. and one really needs to drive extra carefully when passing by the route..
It's very cooling and peaceful scenery here.. and we manage to stop at several places before heading to Tanah Rata. And the most important thing is.. the strawberries! Get ourselves packets and packets of strawberries to eat along the way down.. and packs of the cheap vegetables sold there.. and plants too.. which I will share further in the next entry..
The saddest thing is that all the photos taken were gone.. the stupid phone deleted all the photos out of no reason.. and all the striking poses around Camerons were all gone!!
The drive down from Tanah Rata to Tapah was the most hassle one.. crazy narrow road with some stupid locals that drove as if it's F1 track.. and to make it worst, the road is so dark that only the car spotlight is your sight's limit, adding to the crazy snake type curvy road along the way I bet even Michael Schumacker won't be able to make it pass this road.. hahahah! Reached KL around 1am.. and one thing for sure, I will be going back to Camerons for more!
