World Cup 2010

I am never a fan of football but I must say that I have enjoyed every season of World Cup.

Had Korean with my old school friends on the night of the World Cup Final.

Ivan, Hong Wooi and Sharon

Sharon & me

Pat, Hee Mun and Kok Yeong (The soon-to-be mommy & daddy)

The food :

Their side dishes are the best compared to others that I have tried so far.

Side dishes are FOC and it's also FREE to refill. This is why I love Korean food. :D

 
Side dishes close-up

Marinated beef. Double thumbs up!

Seafood pot. Not nice

Glass noodle. Nice but don't know why this is so expensive comparatively @RM25

World Cup 2010: Things that I enjoyed

1. Waka waka - love the song, the dance and the mtv. Shakira is hot! I just love going to gym during this period as we'll do the waka-waka dance during the zumba class. :D

 

Shakira - Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)

2. Watching the final. I didn't watch a single match until the final. But then, it is always exciting to join in the shouting with the crowd. :P

I've booked a table at Woodz to watch the final. It' wasn't easy to book for a table cause I was planning to go alone. The waiter (my brother) refused to take any singles reservation :(
initially. After some threatening, I finally got my reservation. :D

Customised reservation label

Taking about history, two seasons ago, WC is a money making season for me as there will be a lot of part-time jobs :P

My part-time jobs = money + being paid to hang out with your friends. :))

This round final wasn't as exciting as both team played lousily. The only excitement is the kungfu kick by the Nets. Hence, I find that my supper is more appealing that anything else:

Woodz's signature mushroom ramen, YUM YUM!

Wedges are good too.

It's cheap. I ordered 100plus campur ribena but they just charged me for 100-plus. :P
The end.

   

Durian Buffet @ SS2

We passed by this stall at SS2 during our dinner time last Sunday and decided to give it a try since I have been craving for durian lately. Already bought and eaten some durian from pasar malam yesterday but still not satisfied. :P

Can't believed that we got conned! It was written in their bigass banner that it's RM10, right? There's no asterisk mark or "t&c apply"on the banner as I double checked.

As we found out later, RM10 is only on weekday. -____-

The crowd.

There are two other durian buffet stalls nearby but this is the only stall which is actually crowded. With this kinda crowd, guess it should be good right?

Many different types of durian. Don't be fool though, these are not included in the buffet.

Roy. He ate 3 biji of durian.

Durian kampung, eat-all-you-want. The look of the durian doesn't justify the taste as their kampung durian is really good, which is very milky and rich in taste.

Me. I think I only managed to eat one biji durian. Wasted.

This is where you are supposed to rinse your mouth to reduce the heat after eating durian. Very creative right?

 Coconut - one of the "leung-est" drink.

Verdict: Their durian is good and it would be really cheap if you come on weekday so I will definitely come back again. :D Between, it is RM15 per pax on weekend.

Rojak's Guide to Life Saving Tips

Situation: Sudden stomachache attack and you feel like your stool is gonna explode from your anus anytime. and you are driving. alone. traffic jam. and you've got no idea if the nearest toilet is anyway within 10km. You rather be stabbed a few times than having to endure this.

Here's how:
1. Identify your current location and figure out if you are gonna make it to your home for the comfort of your own toilet seat. Some of the minor details to consider (depending on your property type and location of your nest).

If you are staying in:

Apartment : Can you survive the stairs? (If you are staying in 4th or 5th storey of a walk up apartment)

Condo : How long do you normally take to park your car? (especially if your condo has like 4 storey car park basement)

Does it take long to take the lift? (especially you have to wait an average of 3 minutes for lift, you stay on the highest floor and there is 8 other people in the lift staying on different floor)

DSL/Semi-D: You are the lucky ones, you'll get in the fastest.

2. Choose the best route to home
If there is a longer route and a shorter route (but has more traffic lights) and you can't decide which one is the fastest, I would recommend the latter.
Why?

• The longer route probably means that you'll be driving like a mad woman and dangerously fast.
• Traffic light interval gives you time to compose and calm yourself.
• Try to shift focus from the pain by thinking or doing something such as listening to your favourite songs. You might want to avoid songs like BOOM BOOM POW!! 
• Pray (cause there is  really nothing else that you can do)

3. If going home is not an option, then just find the nearest petrol station nearby. Easy? Maybe, if your bowel doesn't feel like exploding the next second. Other than petrol station, there are many other options such as a medical center (easy to park and lots of toilet), eatery, elderly homes, etc etc. Be prepared for the worst to come in the event when you face with obstacles such as a locked/broken/washing-in-progress toilet. You cannot imagine the anguish when you think you have found a place to release and it didn't happen.

I don't know how to end this post. Just hope the guide is useful to you la.

P/S: I wonder if this happens to Lois Lane, will Superman come and rescue?
