Have you ever eat Tosei Apa ????

The day before yesterday and yesterday and yesterday @@ so many many days before.
I went for dinner with my friend Saupin.

We get ourself to the Indian restaurant to eat Tosei, is been a long time I didn't eat Tosei. Tosei is a traditional food of the Indian, it is special and nice to eat. You can only find it at the Indian restaurant.

Tosei is made of batter, I can't tell how they make their batter because they didn't teach me OMG what a lame answer, and of course every restaurant got their own "secret recipe".

The "chief" will scoop some batter and pour it on the skillet where
the place they cool the Tosei and Roti.
Then he will use some sort of flat bottom cup and
quickly spread the batter over the skillet in a circular motion.
Then he will put some butter on it if u ordered the butter Tosei else he will put what you've ordered. And lastly flip it nicely and here comes the delicious Tosei. Serve it with some curry, is nice.

But that day, after Saupin ordered his Tosei Banana,
I'm still thinking which Tosei I want to eat.
I keep thinking and thinking....

thinking....

AND THINK AGAIN.......

ARGHHHH~~~~ what should I order???
So I asked the waiter .....

Ryan : Erm.... boss ada Tosei apa?? ( what kind of Tosei do you have?)
Waiter : OK !!!

and off he go telling my order to the "chief".
OMG !!!!! Do you ever eat before "TOSEI APA"? Do they really got this "TOSEI APA"?
Gosh... is my pronunciation got problem or his listening got problem??
I've never heard such thing as "TOSEI APA".

Okay..........
never mind, since you said "OK" to me,
I'll wait and see what is "TOSEI APA".

Sitting not far from the "chief", my friend Saupin saw the "chief" put something like powder and it is brown in color to my Tosei.

Hmm... Are you making Tosei Milo????
but Milo and "APA" doesn't sounds the same @.@

A couple of minutes later, here it comes... my Tosei Apa.
Luckily he didn't come out something weird, it is Tosei Kelapa, haha
( kelapa = coconut )
This sounds better , kelapa and apa. Much more alike than Milo.
This Tosei is cooked with the coconut flesh Hmm, can I say like that? XD
And the brown color thing, is the coconut sugar.

This Tosei is just taste sweet and nice, TASTY !!!!

Hmm, looks like I need to try in other restaurant, haha,
ordering something stupid like Tosei Apa. >.<

Where is our Petronas Money ???

Remember the previous post?
Mum telling me to stay at home,
looks like she is correct,
there are something happening in Malaysia.

As a lazy student as me,
I don't read news paper everyday and I don't watch news from TV or listen it from radio.
I don't feel whats happening around me, but this paper wakes me up.

Today after I've finished watching the movie "WANTED" from MBO cinema, my friends and I went to Al-Rahmat for our supper. Thats what we usually do after finished watching a movie.

Talking and laughing at the mamak stall, suddenly a woman passed by and gave us a few pieces of paper. Hmm... wondering what is wrote in that paper because I didn't get one at first.


The paper passed from a hand to another and the topic change from the movie "WANTED" to the content of that paper.
I get to read it as the last person among all nine of us.

So, this is what been written in the paper.
Looks like there is a "gathering" at Dataran Phalawan, Melaka on this Saturday, 28 June 3pm and asking everyone to wear red.

Hmm....why red?? whatever.. but !!! but.......
This is a great question, Where is our Petronas money???

How much they had earn and
how much they spend and
the most important is how they spend the earnings of Petronas for our own country.

These are like a myth, citizens of Malaysian always talks about it but there is no answer for it. No one ever stand up to tell that.
It is such a big number, Billions I can say.
Is not a answer that anyone can answer.
It is too heavy for some one who don't have enough power to answer that.

"kong poh" chicken rice which cost RM 5 last trimester, now I am eating it for RM 6.
Double A A4 paper which cost Rm 10 now I buy I bought it for RM11.50.
And everybody knows this, the price of petrol suddenly increase Rm0.78 on the 4th of June.

Everything is increasing their price.
Fine, I can't do anything about that.
I can only think of a way to save my money and spend lesser.

But me, as a citizen of Malaysia, I do wanted to know this answer, can I?
I think I, no no no...
should say WE, every citizens of Malaysia do have the right to know the answer.

Shouldn't we?

Not in mode and feeling lazy

These few days, hmm..
the starting of the new trimester, not really new actually, almost reach the third week already, but I still can't get in the mode, the mode as a student.
Very lazy these few days,


lazy to go class, luckily I attended almost every class except
that day raining so I missed a couple of class.
Lazy to blog, every time I touch my Pc I just feel like to game and movies. Damn...

Everyday thinking where to eat and where to play and sleep. haih... bad boy >.<

Another thing making me not in mode is my parents.
They are pressuring me of studies and the very important thing,
my FINANCE .
Argh, keep telling me not to spend money here and there because
the price of everything is increasing.



Other than that, they do tell me that my country is very complicated now,
stay at home more, is much safe.
Talk like everyone in this country going to fight each other,
fight for the price, fight for the petrol, fight for the paddy price and so on and so on.



Looks like I can't go for vacation this trimester break, and staying at home be someone nerd. Everyday wake up, cook myself a breakfast and go to class,
then go to the library when there is a few hours break.
Then lunch, then dinner, all cook myself so it save more money and much safe.
At night I don't think I'm going out because is dangerous, so I stay at home and study.
Then sleep at 10pm and again for another day.
Aiks...

Kedah trip - Highlights

Is been a long time i didn't touch my blog >.<
1st - Line not that good, take minutes to open a web page.
2nd - I'm busy, busy enjoy my Malacca life. hehe

The trip in Kedah goes very messy, so I will only post the highlights.

In Kedah, pay some attention to the mosque,
it is built much better than those in KL >.<

And one thing important and you must pay a visit if you reach Alor Star.

The Alor Star tower, go up and have a view,
else you wont be recognize that you went Alor Star before XD.
I suggest you guys pay the visit at night.
You can have some great view up there.
Here a picture I took with my Sony Ericsson K750i.
The Alor Star tower with the moon ~~~~


You can see the stadium at the
top right corner with a lot of white spot lights.

The other thing you can have fun with it is......
the binocular !!!!
Is free although it has a "lubang" to put coins.
May be they charge it with the entrance fees XD

You can see the people in the stadium trough the binocular.
Hehe
or .....
Peep other people's house. Muhahahahaahaa
WARNING : PLEASE DON'T SIMPLY GET NAKED
AND RUNNING IN YOUR HOUSE, EYES ARE AROUND.

Other than the Alor Star tower, you may drive further which means away from Alor Star. Pay a visit to the "crystal mountain" well the pros tell me that actually every mountain do have crystal, just that the government don't let us simply dig a tunnel at the mountain, is the government properties. The price is cheaper comparing to my place, Kuala Lumpur.

Guess what is this? It looks like a rat isn't it?


How about this?
The owner of the shop told me is an elephant,
but I prefer it as a rabbit >.<


And this, this is much obvious, it looks like a tortoise

Hmm, where else you can go beside these? Let me think...
Erm, this is not bad, M'sia ex president Tun Mahathir's old house.

It was kept in good condition.
There isn't much to see but history of Tun Mahathir.

Getting back to Alor Star,
hmm....seriously if you get a chance to visit Kedah,
please please please
visit the paddy factory.
I think this is a must for us who always eat rice
to get more knowledge about paddy and rice.


Please wear mask before go in the factory.
wondering why others not following my pose. haih sad.
The paddy is like a mountain sial >.<

This is how it looks like with a nearer look.

And this I will highlight is the Paddy museum.
You can see many equipment they use in the paddy field.
There is one thing that I highly recommend you guys in this museum is the paint in this museum, is seriously nice, sweet, beautiful. It looks like real, damn !!! You can have a look at about 1:11 of this video. But I still advise you to have a look for the real one. Is really nice.
The paint in circle, and you will sit on the chair and the chair will turn around slowly, and the tells a story, from they start to plant the paddy until the get harvest.

Here I found a video in youtube about the museum. Have a look at it =) Thx to Jason yap.



And there are some food thats I cant forget it,
The cendol pulut. It can be only found at the north side of peninsular Malaysia.
And if you are free enough like us,
drive yourself to Jetty Kuala Perlis and have some sea food beside the sea.


And one more thing, this is seriously important,
much more important then anything above.

please.

please..

please...

Check your tyre often, else you might get yourself in trouble getting home =.=

New Trimester !!!!

Time passed so fast, is been 3 years studying in Malacca now. Many things happened in Malacca. Great memories was born during this 3 years. But this is not the time for me to graduate yet, there are still 2 more years in Malacca. or may be more if I fail in my test >.<
As the old ones says, we need to plan our future.

So i planned....

First,

Push my CGPA higher than last trimester. This is a must for me create a legendary record for myself. Hmm.... about the result, is kind of private.. heheheheee

NO MORE THIS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND THIS!!!!!!!! NO MORE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Second,

Get myself to the choir class, looking for my voice. I like to sing, but of course I can't sing like a superstar. Been years people laughing at me. Actually they are just the same people, don't understand why they so like to insult people. Not only me get insulted but some others people who cant sing like me. Really hate them. But whats makes me never give up? Because I believe that every single human being in this earth can sing, is just that do you found the way to control your voice?? For those who laugh at people who cant sing, please la, is hurt la. DAMN !!

I’m shaking the tree of the paradigm that only talented people can sing,
Clayne Robison
says.
As a singing teacher, I’m here to tell everyone they are talented.



RICHARD DEMARCO:Everyone is an artist, everyone can sing

Third,

Many people say me got a big tummy, I don't understand that actually. Really hard for me to believe myself that I have a big tummy. I'm so thin how can I have one? And I didn't see it even when I'm naked >.< May be I need to do some explanation here. May be my body is quite different with you. I'm born with my back bone bended.

Plus last time when I am training Wu Shu. I need to put on a belt which is a long long cloth. I need to tie it really tight, really tight !!!! So that we can maintain the stamina. Because of this, so it do really looks like I have a big tummy >.< so sad.....

How to solve this problem?? I've think of one way, Argh!!! Get 2 inches to my chest so it looks more balance >.< hehe

Like this !!!!! the Singapore star.
Gonna follow his techniques.

So.... in the end... of course I hope everything goes smoothly and hit my target la !!!! @.@

Kedah trip - Alor star

First week of the trimester break, I've went to Kelantan the Islamic city.
During the last week of my trimester break,
I went to Kedah with the distinction of being the "Rice-bowl of Malaysia".

The increasing of the price of the petrol didn't stop us driving all the way from Malacca to Kedah.
But it really cost a lot .... damn expensive >.< Four person in the car, hanging a "zhong zi" at the back mirror, hope that will protect us until the end of this trip. Haha, actually is nobody want to eat the "zhong zi". Hanging there do look like some sort of holy thing, Argh~~~ pluck it if we meet some dirty things >.<
We had our dim sum at Malacca and we start our moves to the highway around 10am and we reach there about 5pm, a 7 hours car driving destiny.
Chatting and sleeping are mostly done when we are in the car but this time we got a PSP along with us. This gave us more entertainment in the car. Another thing that is fun is... GPS is available in the PSP. We manage to see we are we located and not getting lost in Kedah although this is the first time we pay a visit.



Once you get your steps into Kedah, you can see the very very very beautiful paddy field all along the way. It looks so beautiful. Gonna fall in love with it >.<

Kedah is too big for me to explore each of the corner in few days. So we are just hanging around Alor Star the capital of Kedah and places not far away from Alor Star.
Since Kedah is been named as the "Rice-bowl of Malaysia", of course I made myself to the paddy field. I force my friend who live in Kedah to bring me to, muahahahahaaha XD
The paddy field in Kedah looks much much more better than the others from other states.

Guess whats this?? This is.....
...
...
dragon fly's egg !!!!!!!!! XD


Day turned dark after a few hours, and life started to get boring because there are not much places to go during the night time. We have our dinner with some Lok Lok and get ourself unpack in one of my friend's house, thx to Cheemil who sponsor us a place to sleep.



After unpack, using so much energy of course we are hungry again,
lets go eat !!! super time !! muahahahhahaaa ^^



After supper....
Sleep !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Muahahhahahaaa....

After a long driving journey everyone is tired and everyone agree to go back to sleep.
Wondering beside the driver didn't sleep all the way from Malacca to Kedah, everyone is sleeping. How we all are still tired? XD

There goes day 1 in Keday, next day we are off to Langkawi and meet some new friends, I'll post that after I finish my Kedah post XD
