It has been quite awhile since I wrote my last post. Why? I can simply say that I am busy like everyone else and its an absolute truth but how busy can someone be? Surely the creature named 'lazy' play a part in it too.... whatever it is I pray to God for giving me still the wisdom to savor happiness, a loose term but joyful nonetheless... but off course for every journey or voyage, the sea is not always calm, the stormy sea did rock the ship to the brink of its demise time and time again ..but as long as the captain has a strong will to see his ship to reside or to berth at her designated place, then come what may, the journey in itself will be worthwhile...
Enough about that, let us come back to the solid ground. Just like AF7 which talks about transformation (not that I take heed about it anymore unlike those glorious AF year i.e. during Zahid's) my small house has also being transformed. Many many thanks to A, for his non sabbatical leave from work for about 4 weeks has given him ample time and ideas to decorate our house..a little bit of painting here and a little bit of drilling there and adding with all new lighting's and carpet plus the new "toys" has given our living room an uplifting place to be...yet there are still few things to be done but with no budget, the rest are to be put on hold.
When I said, sabbatical leave it does not mean that A was fired or retrenched. He left his old company for a long needed break and do things... other things he wanted to do for a while before embarking on a new working journey again...well yesterday was A's first day working in a new place ..... so just expect him to eventually revive his blogs soon.
As for our weekend activities nothing much to note except the following in no chronologically order.
- Watched theater called "Patung Kertas 2" at MATIC. I must say its quite fascinating to watch Datuk Jalaluddin Hassan and Ashraf Muslim and few others as drag queens. However, the "antics" in this theater were much much less provocative to compare with "Air-Cond" that we watched last year.
- Attended AIM in PWTC with Ajib, A and Omar, A's best friend. Love Adibah's ranting with the audience in between commercial breaks for she prayed not to make anymore bloopers which she did during their opening act with Afdlin and Bob Lokman.
- The next day, A, Omar and myself had our lunch at the new Papa John in IOI Mall, Puchong. I always like Papa John's pizzas, second best only after Modesto's. (Domino's still OK, Pizza Hut a big no no............) Nonetheless I keep wondering why many of the Papa John's waiters in here are chubby guys.....ermmm I received the answer via SMS from Panzer concurring with my thought....he simply put it...it shows good food ermmm Fat people = Good food? ermmm I guess so hehehe..... good marketing strategies nonetheless.....
- Made a complaint at Johnny's (Steamboat) in Berjaya Times Square. Why? The infamous dip sauce is no longer thick as usual albeit the same taste. Being Johnny's ardent customer (one or twice a month), the manager helplessly told us that the sauce was supplied by one company and not being made by the restaurant itself....sigh...
- Had dinner at The Loaf in Pavilion and out of curiosity we tried its Japanese fusion set dinner named the Ojyu Plus One which have four type of set menus. I took the Murasala and A's took the Tsubaki. Out came 2 small trays and in it an even smaller or tiny cups of assorted fusion Japanese delicacies. The Japanese really know how to make us not to dislike the food. In each tiny cups or in a spoon, the food tasted yummy but because of its small quantities we appreciated it more after it enters into our mouth, wanting more of it but no longer there.... Funny that both of us swear to go to mamak stall afterwards...
On the same nite at Pavilion, we watched a Thai's movie called "Queen Of Langkasuka". On the way out of the cinema afterward, I kept wandering how our neighbouring country can produced such a high quality movie such as this. How so very far backward is our movie industry. It is beyond comparison. Such a shame.......
That is about all for now. We tried to keep a tight budget this month (to no avail, off course) to prepare ourselves for our upcoming trip to Jakarta/Bandung next Friday. Nonetheless , tonite, I will buy A's dinner at a secret place unknown to him to celebrate his birthday today...ermmmmmm
