After that, we decided to start off our 1st weekly ping-pong session today, and off we go, heading towards the Terrorist Zone for a one hour ping pong session.
It was a fun and wonderful afternoon well spent ;)

The Saturday 2 weeks back, we had a trip to Pantai Keracut. Special thanks to Dan's colleague, Jane Hong, for organizing and taking all the trouble to make this wonderful trip possible.
It all started with a bunch of colleagues with 3 cars meeting up at Toy Museum at 7am in the morning.
When we reach there, we were greeted with another 20some colleagues. A full pack of 30+ people climbing a mountain, u got it. :p
We started off the journey by entering thru this gate, at around 8:30am.
It jungle tracking lasted for about 1.5 hours.
Right at the other end, is a lake that welcomed us, Tasik Meromiktik (dunno who gave this kinda name ..... )
And guess what everyone did when they first touch down? No, they did not jump into the sea ...... no, they did not lie and rest on the white sandy beach enjoying the breeze...... They ate Char Bee Hoon.
We were full of expectation expecting to see turtles hatching from their eggs, too bad the timing wasn't right.
On the other hand, we found this little beautiful creature there. According to the people there, it was picked up when it was still a small baby, and after 6month ...... just 6month old, here it is.
See how tall he stands comparatively to the tree brunch?
Much to out surprise, 1 hour right before the boat arrives, something pop up, and we got lucky. I can't tell you how happy we were (actually I'm the only one who got overly excited only :p). This is my first time ever I've came into such close proximity with a baby turtle. It is so kewt~~~~~ ^_^
After spending like an hour at Pantai Keracut, the boat finally came to pick us up. The 30minute boat ride was truly a very windy and nice experience, not to mention the spectacular sceneries......
Finally, last but not least, thanks to Jane Hong for supplying all the pictures on this post. :)

It has been a year, since we've been apart, your voice still lingers in my ear, your spirit, in my heart. It’s never been the same, ever since you depart, No more belly dancing, no more qi-gong in the park.
Although time does help, the pain is still there, We’ve learnt to live up, to be happy as your wish. Please drop by our dreams, if you have time to spare, Always our guidance in life, anytime, anywhere……

I never like crowded places, and so, it is in our consensus that we both celebrate this romantic day a few days later than the actual day, just to avoid the crowd, as well as the hefty unreasonable sudden hike in price in all of the restaurants.
Well, initial plan was to visit some Korean food, turned out that, we couldn't find any, and so, Dan suggested that we go try this out since it got so much hype in recent spamming in emails.
Interior design of it was very unique. At least, this was the first restaurant which uses such idea of using a 'jail' as the main theme.
...... even the tables setting were design in such a way that makes the atmosphere such real.
A neon litted centre-staged bar is one of the interesting part in this restaurant. Notice the chains on both the right/left side? I wonder how much does all this reno cost :p
Everything was acceptable. Food is no bad. Price is considered at the higher end, for make up for the unique feel. Service was at the lower end though, as I waited for an hour for my fried soba, only to be noticed by that lil' kid that they have forgotten my order. Damn .................
...... and by the time we finished out food, it was already dark.
Drove to Gurney drive, took an evening walk along gurney drive to let the food settle down. After 30min, Dan suggested some dessert, and so, of we go to Gurney Plaza. The Chinese New Year mood is still all around the corner, though it is already the 10th day.
What a refreshing after a walk on a hot humid weather ;)
..... and guess who we met in A&W?
Anyway, Wishing everyone a Happy Belated Valentines Day.

This year's Chinese New Year trip back to Kluang was a meaningful one for me. At least, it has brought me some good experience.
For those that know me well, I'm not that kind of person who does initiate a conversation with people I'm not close to. Nonetheless, all the ang-pow giving and numerous occasion of reunion meals have no doubt strengthen the bonds.
Another thing that worth mentioning is, I finally scoop up the courage to carry my lil nephew. :)
Not like last time where I kinda feel wierd having some baby talks with him, this time around, we really have some good times ;)
We even brought him, together with his grandpa, to Kluang's fun fare, and here are some of the videos of him (and his grandpa :p) having fun ;)
Ok. Some misc videos here.
Loong Loong playing with his grandpa at home ...
...... and here ..... Loong Loong giving winning 4D while channeling .... 88977 ?????
Kids are fun ............. :) .................. .............. .......................... ... only when they are not mischievous ...................... that is ......

Yesterday, after having a great weekly badminton session with Dan and my colleagues, as usual, we paid a visit to Sunshine McDondals.
As meow meow's food supply is running thin, we decided to stock in the silo, and holy molly, it sure damn is very crowded as every uncle, auntie, grandma and those makipohcharbohkia all do their last minute shopping spree as if those stuff are free lidat.
Anyway, we went straight to the pet supply, and since we are also joining the crowd, Dan asked me to get a trolly and she waited me at that spot.
Upon coming back, I search high, seach low, see east, look west, but still couldn't find her. And suddenly, some girl pull my shirt from behind me.
And turned around, and saw a little hand there pulling me from a corner. Turned out to be Dan. #$%@#^@#%#$%@, playing hide and seek?
Turned out to be, while I was away busy looking for trolly, this lil' brother working in the wine section walk up, and slipped something into Dan's hand ......
