Ole Ole Ole Ole!!!

After being sidelined n plagued with knee injuries for almost 2 years, my dear baby-faced assasin Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is BACK!!! Being a Man Utd fan for a decade now, i had loved n supported Solskjaer the moment he stepped into the Theatre of Deams. Who can ever forget the goals he scored during the Champions League Finals and single-handily brought back the title to Old Trafford! During the time he could not play, i wished, hoped n prayed he would recover sonner n score in major games. End of last season he started his comback by playing for reserves, but the first team is really where he belong. Scoring goals in the EPL n other major tournaments is wht he should be doing, not just playing for the reserves game. I longed to c him score in a major tournament game n c his big wide smile on his face like what he always does.

In the EPL game against Charlton just now, he did not start, which is expected. All along, he was kinda like a super-sub for Man Utd. Put him in the starting eleven chances of him scoring is low. Put him on the bench n bring him out later, he will score for u. He came on n score. The moment i saw his big wide smile, i cried. I had waited for this day to c him score in a major tournament game for too long already! i was really damn happy for him. Although he replaced Giggs n took over the Capt's armband from him for that little short while, tt moment of seeing him in the armband scoring just brought too much joy to me. If only he was rite in front of me, i would rush over to hug him.

The scene of him scoring n celebrating is still playing over n over in my head. i wonder how i'm gonna sleep...

Ole Ole Ole Ole...

Gastric? Flu? Sick...

Sunday morning, Dear n i woke up early. We had breakfast b4 he had to go view a shop floor. after accompanying him to view the shop floor, i went home to zzz. i slept form 1+ till 7 in the evening. after sleeping for so long in the day, it was amazing to be able to sleep at nite.

I woke up with a slight headache. it just felt a bit head-heavy, not the pricking kinda headache. Actually on sunday morning when Dear n I woke up, we felt a bit funny. But we just shake it off as being "chilled by the fan" which was blowing straight at us, as it was blardi hot during the nite. i went to work n everything was quite ok. just that i wasn't having much concentration n felt a bit blur. after dinner, the heavy head slowly crept to become a pricking pain. i took a cab home, washed up, popped a panadol flu on empty stomach n zzz. but it was kinda hard falling asleep. my head kept thumping n i could hear the tv on n off. it was like drifting to sleep n then waking up, wide awake n drifting back to sleep again... at last i fell asleep but woke up at 1 plus. my tummy felt blotted n it was terrible. i burped a few times n vomitted.

luckily Dear haven't sleept yet, so he accompained me to the 24hrs clinic to c the doc. the doc cannot even tell if it was gastric or stomach flu! anyway, the consultation n medication came up to $114, a few dollars shy from my norm visits to Dr Khor. Got a 2 days MC too. slept over at Dear's place as it was a short walk n it's cheaper then taking a cab home.

Woke up at 7.30, had breakfast with Dear n he went to work while i went home to continue sleeping. b4 i slept, i called my manager to report sick for today n tmr. i fell asleep by 9.30, but only woke up at 1+ in the afternoon. Whole aftnn at home, watch vcds n rested then went out for dinner with my parents.

Nw, at Dear's place typing this... while he's already snoring... lol...

Strait's Cafe @ Hotel Rendezvous

Exam passed on Saturday. Paper was do-able, hopefully can score a avg B overall. After exam, met jie meis for shopping. haven't really been able to window shop, look at stuff slowly n shop till so shiok for a long time already. Bought a pair of sneakers and a tube top from Mango. Bought my first ever piece of Zara, which normally can't find my cutting/size, a tube top. Bought a bra from Una Cool, sister brand of Wacoal.

Later, we had dinner at Strait's Cafe at Hotel Rendezvous to celebrate PJ's bday. the spread was definately worth the money, considering the promotion of free dining for persons whose bday falls in august but must be accompained by one paying customer. Even at a norm rate of almost $35 per pax w/out promo, it was really worth it.

At the Jap corner was sashimi, sushi, cold tofu, soba.
Local corner had rice, pork, chicken, steamed fish, veg, black pepper mussels, laksa.
Cold dishes had DIY salad, potato salad, fruit salad, seafood salad, pasta salad, baby octupus, cold mussels, shrimps served in a soup spoon with dressing...
Desserts had chng teng, burbur hitam, sweet potato, nonya pastries, several cakes, chocolate fondue, fruits...
A special corner located just opposite the dessert's corner, which i call it delight's corner had drunken herbal prawns, kabab, pork loin, roast beef and baked potatos.
Must tries are the sashimi, soba, laksa, potato salad, cold mussels, shrimps in a soup spoon, and everything at the delight's corner. so so yummy!!! just thinking of it is making my mouth water...
After the wonderful dinner, we walked all the way to Tangs n found it closed for the day already. sigh... anyway, Dear slept over later...

Today's Toto Draw

5.5 million jackpot. i din even got a sniff of it. if only there's a prize for 2+1... Whn will it be my turn?

Blogging What I Left Out

After 2 weeks of not blogging, there's so many things u wana tok about, but simply u'll forget to.

gubra, the sequel to sepet came into the store the other day, i immediately grabbed one n reserved it. now, its sitting on my cupboard cos i din have the time to watch it. Forced dear to watch sepet the other day, but we din mange to finish cos his laptop threw tantrums.

FIR released a new album after so long! new album not so rock, more chill out, jazzy kind.

i booked my driving test date on 20th Oct. Hopefully i'll pass. if not, i'll most prob have to take my final theory exam again cos it would expire in Nov. Rite now, i'm trying to cramp as many lessons as possible. One infuriating thing is that although i passed my basic theory b4 i registered with the driving school, i still have to go for 2 classes of basic theory! damn, i only found out recently. so, although i had already passed all the theory test needed for driving, i still have to go for lessons... bo liao, waste my time only... haiz, but not much of a choice. if i don't go for the time wasting n money wasting classes, i can't take my driving test!

went ktv with dear the other day. at last, after sooooo long. i would usually sing the songs by my fave artists last. so i sang janice wei lan, a*mei, etc... everyone except FIR!!! it was only after we left the place for dinner thn dear asked me, "how come today never sing FIR ah?" then i realised that i had forgotten to choose their songs! damn!

hmm, wht else... another day mayb... need to study...

Rice Table @ International Bldg

went to rice table on saturday with the gals to celebrate yue's bday in advanced. not too bad a spread. 20 dishes for u to choose from for dinner. n its a ala-carte buffet style. some dishes were damn yummy, some were ok only...

satay could b better without the sauce.

tahu telor could b better if excess oil was drained properly.

ikan billis could b better if they are crispier.

achar damn got kick.

curried tofu was normal.

sayur lodeh was a disappoinment. not lemak enough.

prawns should have bigger serving. the size of the prawns were so damn small n each dishes was served with one slice/piece per pax.

kangkong ok lor.

fruit salad was unique.

perkedel was a tad salty, but damn sadap.

grilled chiken was damn good. only if eaten warm...

deep fried fish damn yummy. the fish was so soft... melts in your mouth.

fried chicken wing nothing different.

chilli chicken wing, din try cos looked a bit spicy.

soto ayam soup tasted like tom yum soup without chilli. the fragrance of the lemongrass was overwhelming.

otak, din try...

brinjal, din take cos i hate brinjals.

gado gado ok.

cuttlefish damn chewy but not tough. we joked that the cuttlefish was 4 small baby octopus sliced.

rendang damn smelly. worst rendang in my life i've ever eaten. n i love rendang lor...

there u go... 20 dishes...

rice was soft... very soft... my type of rice.... if u like hard rice, u'll be disappointed.

Weeks Of Withdrawal Symptoms

I haven't been blogging for 2 weeks cos i was working n too tired to. everytime i come across something, i tell myself to blog once i get home n touch the comp, but everytime, i preferred to play chess with "grandpa zhou" for 2 weeks, my fingers were itching to type something in here, but i was just simply too lazy n drained to do so...

Mango's new fall/winter collection is in, but i haven't been able to spare time to take a look.

i might get senile when i'm old cos i tend to forget things easily. i almost have to jot down everything i have to remb... either that, i'm too lazy to kill brain cells to remb these stuff. for eg: i would write everything down in my organiser in detail, whereas in the past, i just have it in my head. mayb the radiotherapy killed some grey matter, so i tend to b forgetful.

bought 2 books from borders sale. Frank McCourt Teacher Man n Derek Jeter's autobiography. will start reading them soon after i'm done with the upcoming exam for Arts n Our World.

was so fed up n angry with dear dear the other day i became disillusioned with our relationship. for that 24 hours i lost hope of being mrs wong, n was trying to mend n heal cracks in my heart. i had asked him, "2 mths more anniversary liao, u excited?" all i got was a freaking sian face n a "orh". i couldn't sleep tt nite n when i finally got to, it was a nightmare of dear telling me he dun want me already. i woke up, couldn't get back to sleep all the way till 5 in the morning. wasn't myself the entire day, i just felt sleepy, cranky, short-fused, grouchy n lost... a fucking irritating bastard customer just made my day worse n i sat down on the floor at the counter n cried. i just broke down. dear called me at nite, n asked if i was angry with him. i replied, "can't b bothered to. bring angry only give me wrinkles". told him my bad day n y he was the cause of it. although i know dear is joking, but i just can't help it but feel damn disappointed. but these few days, dear extra sweet to me. mayb he guilty... hehe...

EPL is starting at last! i was suffering for soccer-watching withdrawal symptoms. no soccer equals no life. life's boring with no soccer to watch. community shield just ended n england's vice capt's team won the capt's team. well done liverpui! so happy to c chealsea's sore loser face yet again... muahahaha...

mclaren should re-consider his choice of captain. gerrard is so much more influential n a better player thn terry! makelele just make terry n lmapard look good. yes, i'm repeating this again... but look at chealsea w/out makelele! terry really cannot make it.

yawn... even i'm getting bored at the things i'm typing out here... or mayb i'm jus sleepy...
