Goodbye PDG6163.....

Today mark the day ... it had been 13 years of memories.... All started in 1996 Chinese New Year it was half present and half saving for this toy.... a present for my PMR result... and it is also a milestone of freedom... :)

You know what, during 16/17 all you want was out of the house and you can go anywhere without asking your parent to drive you around... previously (since 1992) was using my bicycle (a racer) to travel from house (Batu Uban / Sg Nibong) to school (Chung Hwa / Greenlane) and also to tutions (which was at Ayer Itam)....those days on bicycle was good.. and thats the only way going out without asking parent to fetch :)

In 1996, the PDG 6163 actually replace the bicycle... and "motorize" the movement.. and it also bring me to further distance in the outside world.

With the 6163... I actually travel around penang and also go out of penang sometime with the high school mate... then college time at Inti College Malaysia .... it was replaced by a C70 from my sister.. as 6163 was brought to Sabah.... to University Malaysia Sabah....

Throughout the years 6163 got alot of "tag" or sticker.. from Chung Hwa...Pangsapuri Relau...and many more that 6163 had been part of our life.... Thank you for bring us everywhere :) Instead of leaving you alone at 26... I would pass you to a new owner... as the new owner will take good care of you.... I had maintain you well and you still the good bike that help me "win" some race ;) (thats our past secret that can't really share here)

You will always be remembered. Honda EX5

A day out at Singapore Zoo

I know ... you must asking me.. did I got H1N1? erm.... for now NO... I don't.....but let's see how it goes... overall the fear we had originally was actually just overboard... I don't think it is that serious ... except for those with some critical diseases.... for others it is just a flu....

Foong Wei Restaurant

On Sunday we did an early celebration of Father's day with my dad... and out of no where we had chosen Foong Wei Restaurant at Jalan Sri Bahari, which is located diagonally across The Ship restaurant. Perviously I tried this Foong Wei Restaurant, the food there are not bad as overall. Service was good. Very responsive. But after our encouter over the weekend, I must say, I felt disapointed as their service and food.

We make a booking a day before and the lady actually said the restaurant all full... not even asking when I want to make the reservation. Then, after I told them I'm asking for Sunday lunch, they only said: "oh, ok, how many people". After giving them the detail, I went off.

So, on that day itself we arrive on the time we made the reservation... after sitting down, we did ask to take orders as given the restaurant was almost full. we waited for 20 mins but there still no shadow of anyone come and take our orders... so we had to walk to the counter and ask for the lady again... (really bad...)
After that we do get our dish ordered.. and problems arise again....
the dishes actually came first and we were like asking for white rice... but rice didn't arrive upon the dish had came... so... all the dishes were infront of us and we got no rice to eat with it..... it took like 5mins after only we got our table filled with rice...

Next problem arises..... after having half way of the food, we found out a baby crocoach died in the dish!!! And worst part we like half way eaten that dish! We ask the waiter to come and have a look... and she just took away the plate that had the crocoach.... later the "captain" came and ask us what happen... we were like.. aren't the waiter show you the crocoach, she pretended like she don't know, and we had to show her what we had captured through the camera! and she only admit... and ask us what we want.... to cut the story short... we just cancel that dish... and to me...
I don't think i would want to go back to that restaurant again....

The service of the restaurant had dropped, food doesn't taste as good as before.... if you do happen to dine there.... just beware of what you are eating....

Movies to Watch

There are a few good movies that are going to show in the coming months.. some just can't wait that it will show tomorrow :)
1) Transformers 2 (Revenge of the Fallen)
2) Iron Man 2
3) Spider-Man 4
4) Harry Potter 6 (Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince)
5) G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra
6) Ice Age : Dawn of the Dinosaurs
7) Sherk : Sherk Forever After

I wonder if it does help if I work in the screen rating, so before any of the movie being screen, I am able to watch them first :)

anyway just a dream.

Getting Your Passport Fast...

My passport will be expire in 2 months time... and had been pending and postponing to go and renew it. This is due to few reasons...the crowd that will be pile up by 9pm when you reach there and also laziness :)

So.. on Monday I decided to make a stand and just do it :) SO.. I a half day off and "try" to wake up early than usual time.. work up at 6am... but in the end due to "certain" reason that I cannot disclose here... :) by the time I arrive the immigration office it is already 9am!!

Ok ... I walk in to the information counter and let them check on my documents... seem like I miss out my photocopy IC.... the officer told me at the back of the office do have a copy machine service... so I just go over and check it out.... and as expected... LONG Queue.... people are queuing there for photo taking and copying their IC... all in the same queue.... so sad....

I actually try to see how long the wait was and look at the progress... counted.. there were about 12 people in front of me!.... so i don't think i want to wait for that long.... to cut the story short.... people who just want to get a photocopy of their IC, can walk down the street there is one shop does have a copier machine :) it charge 40cents only :) (slightly higher compare to the normal rate, but what the heck, at 9am others shop still not open)

By the time I got back to the immigration office, it is already 9.10am :) still not too bad... the officer check list:

2 x Photos = Check

Old passport = Check

1x photocopy IC= Check

Money (RM300) = Check

Ok, please go to Counter 12 and ask for Kiosk!

KIOSK??!!! wow... it was my first time man.. immigration got Kiosk! :)

So... went over to counter 12 and the guy lead me to the Kiosk... quite cool.. and I actually "cut queue" as no one was there ahead and immediately i can get my passport process :)

What you need to do is fill up your mobile phone number, and your IC number, and of course your name onto the envelop...then put your photos and photocopy IC hem into the ready envelop. Slot in your passport to the kiosk... slot in your IC for verification.... check your thumb print... then confirm all the detail in the system are correct ...the machine will prompt you for payment... so they accept CASH only!!.... after your payment insert your passport into the envelop seal it...last... drop in the envelop at the Kiosk.... Walla! You got your renewal passport ready for process!

After you put in everything they will give you a slip... and your passport will be ready after 2 hours! you can then go for your breakfast!....

So by the time I complete that... it was just 9.15am! time for breakfast ! :)

Imagine all these can be done within 5 mins!

After 2 hours which is around11.30am... go to the info officer, get the queue number, drop your slip to counter 8... and wait for your number to be called... within few minutes... you will get your new passport!

:) That Simple! :)
