Bites & Pieces of Recent Life

"8 February 2017"

(From left)-Tuna Onigiri & Oden, Family Mart, KLIA 2-RM 8.90

Japanese foods and snacks were very common in Family Mart as it was the Japanese convenience stores. 

I had Tuna Onigiri, a triangular shape rice that wrapped in the plastic. It was big, filling and tasty. 

Also, I chose fish balls from soy sauce based Oden (a Japanese hot pot with fish balls, corns fish cakes and eggs). The soy sauce broth was flavorful and the fish balls were perfectly braised. *swallow saliva*

Being assigned with AirAsia hot seats for that day's 2 connected flights. So thrilling and exciting 
 but it's nothing at the end. I had to wait other passengers to on board too. The plane wouldn't took off immediately just because you're the hot seat passengers.

A very good scientific and academic style of wedding invitation. Hahaha. A good joke to cheer my day. But it was surely not my type of wedding invitation. Feeling stressed and depressed after all. 

"13 February 2017"

Annual pilgrimage at Kuan Yin Ting, Georgetown 
I went for praying till this uncle recognized me and said "why this year so late?".

"You remember me?"

"Yes, you come very far, Sabah or Sarawak. You pray for entire family with all girls and mostly students"

"Hahaha. Thank you for remembering me"

 Since I stayed nearby hotel and came to this well-known duck kway chap stall for dinner. 
Duck kway chap with internal organs of pigs, ducks and eggs (RM 7). The soup of duck kway chap was really aromatic and all the meats tasted tender. 

If compared to Sarawak Kuey Chap (my hometown), I preferred it as the firm and bigger sizes of kway chap added a crunchy touch. There was also a lingering taste of the soup and I believed it came from five spices powders. Not to mention, "sambal belacan" even make the Kuey Chap tasted better!

Next dorm room neighbor always generous in giving big bowl of nasi lemak to me.  This type of friendship so genuine and real. Totally not involve any benefits. 

"1 March 2017"

Hooked into China & Taiwan drama, best times (美好的时光)。钟汉良took my breath away.
In episode 39, he said:

如果你愿意的话,我陪着你回去,谈笑风生得吃完这顿饭。
如果你愿意走,我陪着你不打招呼就回家,甚至你想掀翻桌子,我陪着你过去遣责那个辜负你的人,我不管你选择哪个办法,我会陪着你

I believed it's the love relationship's essential. The man still be standing there with the woman in the hard times for wiping the tears and holding her arms. 我不想你孤零零面对这一切,我会陪着你-is the great statements than others. 

Nice song 

"4 March 2017"

Didn't know how long I able to stay here for recording my student life
 New bus-myBAS that send us over to Changlun, Jitra & Alor Setar started from February 2017. I liked it's punctuality in moving. It followed the bus schedules strictly. 
 Partner in crime brought me to try famous foods in Alor Setar, Nasi Lemak Royale Kedah at Pekan Rabu 
rices + fried chicken = RM 5.50-considered reasonable based on the foods we ordered.

Don't be surprise, it's not the Nasi Lemak as the name. In fact, it's Nasi Kandar which was significantly different with I usually had. 

The rices were in yellow colors, quite fragrance and aromatic. And then the "Kuah Campur" so syoik-combination mixtures of curries created different flavors. 

Partner in crime told me the compulsory menu for Nasi Lemak Royale Kedah were salted eggs, vendi (i.e lady fingers) and chicken. These three created salty and sweet flavors perfectly. I'll try for the next visit. 


An old blind and deaf man approached us in Syahab Perdana Bus Terminal. 


I entertained him when he asked the first few questions. I displeased with him after that because he continuously asked the same questions. 


"Cik, bus pi Jitra habaq"

"Cik, bus pi Jitra dah sampai? Habaq nanti"

"Adik, nak pi mana?"

"Adik, balik mana ni?"

Some more, he created noise by knocking his walking sticks. I understood he wanted to make his presence felt. The best way was holding his hands or stroking his shoulders to reassure and calm him down. But I couldn't since he was a man and stranger. I had the bad mood since we missed our bus. I blamed myself for not checking and confirming the bus schedules with partner in crime and the person in charge of the bus company. Careless mistakes. 

Guilty overwhelmed me for wasting times at the bus terminal for 2 1/2 hours. I requested the help of partner in crime to deal with the old blind man. She was really patience with him. She never raised high pitch voices on him. She spoke to him like her usual voices-soft, slow and clear voices. She didn't shout with him at all although it may be necessary to speak louder and louder. She send the old man to the bus finally. At the end before he left, he asked "adik, tak tahu macam mana nak balas jasa. Adik nak apa?". Then she replied "tak payah, jasa kecil sahaja,tak ada apa-apa"

I should learned from her and not sure whether I able to become more patience and tolerance especially handle disabled people. Further, doing favors and never expect anything in return. 

"5 March 2017"


"The distance between son-in-law and mother-in-law was a house. If don't have, let's address as auntie instead of mother-in-law"

LOL. But it's the truth. Who didn't want their daughters had the good life if you're parents?
