okie.... i just wanna scream.... 方文山 is such a show off! although i have always known that he likes to write lyrics that sounds.... sophisticated.... but the lyrics for this song is really too much.......
almost EVERY LINE he is using very CHIM chinese words..... so CHIM that.... many have problems trying to sing this song. haha
anyway, was browsing You Tube and found this cover. Someone (obviously very bo liao) immitates 19 other male singer to sing this song... some of his immitation sounds..... quite convincing....
someone treated me to this Japanese A-La-Carte buffet today..... tot i just do a simple review....
Ambience: very upscale and nice deco, with very very nice views outside....
Service : All staff are eager to please. not only do they regularly change my side plate. they clear the "finished" plates very efficiently too. when they see all your food have been served, they actually came up to me asking if i wanna add orders....
Variety: damn.......good! altogether there are 108 dishes for you to choose from....
Price: not really on the cheap side... weekend lunch cost about $36.90 per person. that is excluding drinks and all the +++. weekdays will be cheaper.... and dinners will be more expensive...
without delay.... lets just jump to the food........
the first course that came.... is the Cha Soba.... served on a very classy plate, with its sauce in a glass.... the presentation itself actually gave me a shock.... din expect that they actually put in effort in decorating the noodles... in fact, i was so facinated by the display that... i think i forgot how the food taste... but i dun remember it tasting awful....so it must be passable!
The dish on upper left is "Stir fried beef with asparagus". the thinly sliced beef is soft and chewy, with a thin layer of fats on it... Heavenly...... lower right, is the "deep fried scallop". the scallop is very juicy! its a MUST ORDER...
The sashimi..... i only ordered Salmon and Octopus.... again..... the deco is very attractive... look at the linings of the salmon...... very fresh..... and they are NOT thinly sliced.. they are all about 1cm thick. very generous serving... they are all very fresh.. haha i think i ordered too much... cos i ordered a 2nd serving... this time..... the serving is 2 times of those i order earlier.... i was like.... wah....
Above is the "Miso paste grilled salmon" and "Grilled Saba". no complains.... except for maybe some very very fine bones in the Saba.... the taste is good.....
a bit turned off by the looks of this "Grilled Shishamo" and "grilled Shitake Mushroom". tastewise..... still passable...
Tempura! ahaha came with 2 pieces of prawn tempura, and 2 pieces of veg tempura. sauce is served on a seperate bowl. crispy... prawns fresh....Sedap! it was so good that i ordered it again.... this time.... came with 4 pieces of prawn and 4 pieces of vege.
California Maki and Spider handroll (soft shell crab handroll). try not to order the maki.... cos too much rice.... ahhaa taste good, but too much rice makes you full very easily.... the spider handroll is crispy. taste is definately better than those you eat at Sakae Sushi....
Smoked Salmon Salad..... frankily. i'm quite surprised that this is included in the buffet.. haha nope, dun get me wrong... it taste very good..... just surprised that its classified as Japanese dats all....
Agedashi Tofu..... the presentation alone won me over.... served in a cute cup. hehehe
this dish is rather unique.... "Stir fried pork with Kimchi". lookswise..... a bit turned off.... but then.... it taste very good! hahah very appetising.
Salmon Miso Soup..... DO NOT order this.... i tot is rather horrible.. and the salmon...... full of bones! must have used salmon head....
grilled chicken wings in miso paste.... one of the chef speciality.... maybe until this point i'm quite full already.... so.... it taste soso to me nia.. hahaha
grilled eel..... taste wise..... good. they have another version where cheese is added on top.... i din order that though... my fren whom dislike eel, actually ordered this dish... he say this is the only eel that he eats....
deep friend chicken.... not coated with a lot of flour. so you can taste more of the chicken. good. haha
we were so engrossed with the food that we totally neglect the view outside. we were just sitting next to the glass panel, thus we have access to the nice views outside... haha i only noticed it, when i was really very full.....
The store front. its located in Vivo city. ground floor
Point to note: when you place your order... remember to mention you ordering for how many ppl. or be very specific on how many pieces you wanna order. haha i merely said "can i have a shishamo" .... only ONE piece of the fish is served. hahaha Malu..... and ya... the total bill for 2 ppl, and 2 glass of Coke light... add up to $90+
Was ransacking through my list of MP3 again today, and i opted for the "Jap/Kor" folder...... and found some songs that i used to love. haha the theme song from my all time fav TV drama. "Autumn In My Heart" also known as 秋天的童话. it was the first korean drama that i have watched... other than the fact that the 2 leading guys in the show is..... droolsome..... the gal is damn cute and new. (She is now one of the TOP artist in korea). the thing about this drama is........ every episode you watch... get ready a box of kleenix.... SURE to tear like mad.......
i remember i was listening and listening to this song, over and over again. stirring up all my emotions. haha you should try.....
Okie... next i shall tell you my fav korea movie.. Nope... its not My Sassy Girlfriend.... hahaa my fav korean movie will be.......dum dum dum.....200 LBS BEAUTY. haha maybe its due to the fact that i was really that FAT before. so erm.... struck a cord in my heart. haha
200lbs Beauty Trailer
and i simply simply simply love the theme song.... not the original version, but the version sang by the actress herself in the show... Wow.... haha its her first time acting..... and also her first time singing..... this gal can sing and act! i regard this part as the highlight of the movie! haha
hm...... if one day i were to get married... this is the type of girl that i like. LOL okie.... i'm crazy again.. lalala
for those who know me long enough, knows that i am working underground. (read: no reception) so anyway, late afternoon today, i decided to go UP to smoke.... passed by toilet, and decided to take a pee, before proceeding to smoke.
upon entering the toilet, got a shocked! haha another colleague of mine were standing at the Urinal pee..... in ONLY his Top and black underwear on! try imagine a airforce no. 3 top with black undies... haha
My immediate reaction "Woah~~"
His response: " wah why you look so stunn... *think think*..... haha ya, if i were you, i also will be stunn.... haha"
Me" wah~ what you doing?"
Him: "orh... no lar. actually wanted to shit.... but wan to pee first ma...."
Me: "Er..... why the cubicle inside cannot pee meh? since you ready took off your pants...."
Him: " haha no lar. i dun like.... cos i feel that i might be taking a big dump, i dun wan pee there... wait during shitting the water splash out."
Me:" er.........." *dumbfolded.*
Me thinking:"Er..... he never heard of flushing the toilet post peeing, before shitting wan meh......? " hahaha
anyway..... after peeing, he went back into the cubicle and finish his business... :P the smell is erm.....haha scary!
what am i complaining about? haha i get to see a cutie in underwear and airforce No. 3. n.... and i tot that he looks cute anyway. hahaha
Today, a female colleague keep commenting that i tends to give the best of speech, Utilizing the best of words. haha i wonder if, in any way, she is implying that i am a sweet talker. hmmmmm........ guess that years of IRC and online chatting have taken its toll on me... haha
i have never regard myself as a poet. but i do like to play around with words. eg,
Normal lovers In a SMS conversation: A: "Hey dear, what are you doing?" B: "Hey dear, i'm thinking of you."
How my SMS conversation goes: A:" Hey dear, what are you doing?" Me: "Hey sweetheart, I'm wondering if i am being missed by you...."
though it sounds almost the same.... telling him that he have been on your mind, but then, the tables have been turned. The main topic here is no longer about telling him that you miss him.... BUT it have somehow becomes.... DO YOU MISS ME?
of cos.... the most amazing telephone conversation speech came from my good fren, Taka. who decided to Bo Liao with me one day....
Me:" 喂，你在哪里?" Taka : " 那还用问吗? 我在你心里~~~“ *Stunned*
Lame... but hilarious. it actually did stunn me, while i was trying to digest what he was trying to joke with me about. haha
went to KTV with "taka" and "wonder" the other night. and that 2 suddenly selected this song to show me on the screen..... all burst out laughing like mad.... COCK SONG LOR~~ ahaha but damn funny. so share share with you guys.....
have not been posting for the past few days...... other than the fact that i was running a fever, i was busy playing mahjong. hahaha
anyway... a few things happened:
1) Was playing mahjong till 3am in the morning..... came back home, slept for a while, woke up at 7am. washed up, changed for work. At 7.24am, i receive a sms from a friend. "so sad.... LS 11 times.... and no ppl can send me see doc......" (LS = Lao Sai , diahorrea). initially thought was very 夸张, but the moment i called back and heard his voice over the phone... i knew that it was kindda serious. so i called back office to apply for Urgent leave... took a cab went down to Jurong West to bring him to see a doc. The moment i saw him, gone was the bubbly, bimbo charactor. What greeted me was the 病猫 look. almost as if he was on a one way ticket to hell. Goodness.... he was having serious diahorrea and serious dehydration! he could hardly walk. I was told that while on the way to meet me , he vomitted 2 times, which i totally believe, cause i saw some "leftovers" on part of his shirt. :P haha Anyway after seeing the doctor, i sent him home, ensure that he take his medication and left the place. discovery of the day... MY FREN IS SCARED OF INJECTION! hahaha
2) another while chatting with another friend, L, we decided to play mahjong. thus i sms another friend, N.
me: "Wei... L jio mahjong ley. interested?"
N: " what time? i have to work late today ley......."
me" ai yah... i everytime hear you say, you need to work late, or need to bring work home to do wan.... BUT i never see you do before wan... haha 7pm. L's house"
N: "Okie"
the moment i received his reply, i was laughing like mad. 真爽快！！ haha as long as there is mahjong, nothing else matters already! haha
3) was running a fever at 39.1 on Fri.... lasted till Sunday.... ya... and i went for a dinner on Sat nite, and went shopping on Sun.... yeah... i was hoping that retail therapy can cure my fever :P. haha anyway. recovered by monday, so... that means. RETAIL THERAPY CURES FEVER!!!! hahahaha . but erm.. on Wed, the fever came back again.... 38.7. so.... on MC again yesterday and today. BUT no money to do retail therapy already. hahahah
i've just added in a shout box into my blog. and i sent a msn message to someone whom i think is quite good in blogging. was thinking of asking for his opinion, and the conversation goes....
me: " Wei i added in a shoutbox in my blog ley..."
him: "ya i know...."
*a bit stunn, cos i just added in at 4am the night before
me: "??? you know? wah... you monitor my blog daily wan ah? hahaha"
him: "you think too highly of yourself".
(silence)
* me think BITCH...
me: "THIS is the very reason why i NEVER date anyone younger"
me: "Anyway i think we got generation gap liao. we shall end our interaction here ba. bye"
(after that i received a sms from him saying he was only joking.)
neitherless, for that... he ended up in my block list. duhz.
Ppl who cannot date each other, cannot be friends wan meh. must be so bitchy... spoil my night. GROW UP!
was reading through someone's blog, about how much he still loves the love of his life, but yet chose to break off with him, not cos they were no longer in love, but over the span of 2 years, they discovered that they have quite a big gap difference in mindset and charactor.
which sets me into thinking, why take 2 years to figure that out?
like i said before.... relationship to me, is not about how much you love me, how much i love you. at the end of the day, it will only ends up being, how much we can compromise each other.
my theory (general guideline): 1st 3 months -- get to know more about each other.
4th month -- and if the feeling is right, consider about being more serious with each other.
5th-6th month -- decide if wanna be attached or just wanna remain as friends.
24th month -- reconsider if the relationship's membership should be renewed.
jumping into relationship too fast, almost always brings about unnecessary troubles. of cos.... dating for too long, almost always ends up as "Know you too well already. a bit weird if gonna get attached".
remember watching discovery channel a couple of years back, with this show studying about human brain. and i remembered very clearly what was discussed in the show.
"Crush, love, lust.... etc is actually a result of a chemical reaction in your brain. this chemical reaction usually only lasts up to 2 years." and i remembered gashing... No Wonder many couples breaks off within 2 years!
so the 1st two years in a relationship = chemical reaction, then what is it that makes some couple lasts up to tens of years? the word COMPROMISE....
after a certain time, i think its the "gotten-used-to" feeling, the experiences between the 2 of them, that is keeping many couples together.
Reason being very simple. Within such a short period of time, how do you know that its love and not lust? However i strongly believes that all love started off as lust. The desire to be WITH somebody. The urge you have in your heart that tells you, you wanna know someone better.
Now that we have that answered, lets move on to another question. does all forms of lust associated with sex?
well. Yes and No.
Lust (to me) = Urge.
like i just mentioned, the urge to know more about someone. Many people classify "lust = wan to sex". but ask yourself this question.
Does great sex = great love? or are you sure to get great sex with great love? haha nope.... i dun think so.
People with great charactor DO capture my attention. *yeah! i'm not that shallow afterall! YEAH~~hahaha*
was browsing through some profiles the other day, and came across this "What Turns Me On" field. spent some time pondering over this..... and came to a conclusion.
What turns me on : --Nicely decorated hotel room with WHITE SHEETS~ --My PSP. --My Handphones. V3, E680i,E700, HTC Touch, M600i... --Underwears. --Someone decent and nice. --Someone not too cute. --Someone who can carry a conversation. --Someone not childish. --Someone who thinks. --Someone with crew cut hair. --Someone who can tame me. --Someone who is loved by all. --Someone charming. --Someone older than me. --Someone who knows what works for him. --Not so bad complexion. --Plus if with a nice butt. haha
and someone know about this.... immediately replied..... GOT PPL CAN TAME YOU WAN MEH? ..... Bi~arch~
Relationships, no matter how good, are inevitabily a series of compromises. But how much of ourselves, are we willing to sacrifice for the other person, before we stop being ourselves? In relationships, when does the art of compromise, become compromising?
Just what are you willing to compromise for your partner? and what your partner is willing to compromise for you?
Are you willing to compromise your precious sleeping time? your mahjong time? your rest hours? sacrifice your time with other dates? will you be happy to just see him for an hour?
Is he willing to sacrifice his internet surfing time? soccer watching time? rest hours? will he be happy to include you in his life? is there always time for a hug and kisses?
at the end of the day... the worst thing that you could do, is to compare your relationship with him, to any others that you might have been in. where you were the king.
as i mentioned in my previous posting about Relationship Karma. What goes around.... comes around.....
