Have u ever seen newborn mice? And yeah I did, for like uncountable times.
The mother and the babies. They are just one day old. My colleagues/ lab mates use them in their experiment/ research. Hence I have the chance to snap a few pictures of them. They are so tiny and cute. But really pathetic that they going to be killed after a few days, sigh.
Research. Sacrifice. Sigh.

Time flies, don't u think so. And this is only the second blog post of mine in the month of October. I'm really too occupied with things and tasks till I'm lacking of time to type, to blog and keep u guys up-to-date. Thousand apologizes.
Just back from Bangkok (definitely will blog about it, sooner or later -.-) -> Hp spoilt (motherboard@gg.com) -> Hp fixed (goodbye to all bangkok photos) -> and now busy attending friend's wedding dinner. Gosh, why so many people getting married this year? So that next year can get "dragon baby"?? :D Went to attend friends' wedding dinner last weekend, one at my hometown - Mentakab and the other one in KL.
2011-10-15 Saturday
Early in the morning friends and the groom drive all the way from Mentakab to Kuantan to obtain the bride. Too bad I didn't follow and I can't follow because I'm not "heng dai". Their outfit theme of the day was Manchester United football team and got referee too ><" I'm not going into details about this. Just share a few pictures here.
Here's the group photo during the wedding dinner. Not sure if u manage to spot where am i.
2011-10-16 Sunday
Wedding day of my another friend. The heng dai geng outfit is much more common, which is pink shirt. Now i got an idea, next time my husband and his heng dai geng should wear lab coat then hahah :D damn special, isn't it?? For this, I'm not going into details also, just share a few pictures. Actually there's video of the whole process, but I haven't get it from friend yet so can't share it here.
And a few pictures of the wedding dinner. Err no food pictures this time. Too paiseh to take pictures.
Happy for them. And now, what about you? When is ur turn? :)
We're all a little weird. And life is a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness - and call it love - true love. ~Robert Fulghum,True Love

A good day I supposed. Didn't plan for any lab works but went to attend a talk in Bouvelard Hotel, Midvalley Megamall (Will blog about it later). Get myself 6pieces of Big Apple donuts :D At first wanted to get Krispy Kreme but not in the end because i still think their donut is a bit too sweet.
Then i get myself Chatime milk tea as well :D Friends recommended me the grass jelly roasted milk tea, not bad though. I'm gonna try more next time, Chatime is now my new love :D
Big apple donuts + Chatime = happiness. Yeah, I'm a happy girl today *satisfied* XD

2 weeks ago I got myself a Samsung Galaxy S2 from Maxis.
Vivid, fast and slim -> 3 words that u can use to describe Samsung Galaxy S2. It is an awesome phone isn't it? Dual-core application processor enables fast browsing (I agree), quick multi-tasking (I still don't know how to multi-task using this phone ><), efficient gaming (Agree, angry birds my favorite game lol) etc etc. Then what I like most about this phone is the untra slim 8.49mm design, but damn scare when holding it because no solid feel. Ohh ya not to forget its 8MP camera, damn cool especially for macro shots. Damn happy that I can bring it along to Bangkok from 1st to 9th of October.
I snapped many many photos in Bangkok using this awesome phone. All the photos quality were good. But one thing I don't like is the battery dry very fast. The battery flat not even 12 hours of usage, luckily I bring along my digital camera. 6th of October, a day to be remembered. As usual, battery goes low. I ignored it because I was at outside. Battery flat and eventually the phone turned off itself. After that, it cannot be charged meaning there's no charging indications when I plugged it into power sauce. And the phone cannot be turned on, cannot be hard reset etc. It just RIP like this. *SAD* What I worry most is the photos and videos inside that I took in Bangkok. I haven't backup yet. I supposed it is just the battery dead? *hopefully*
I sent the phone to Samsung Center for checking and repairing. Their service is BAD! Told me technicians will call me and tell me what's the problem with the phone after checking. But I received no calls till day 3 I can't wait anymore I gave them a call and asked for the repair status. Then only the people told me it is still pending because the technician is now waiting for the "parts" to arrive then only can fix my phone. I wondering what's the "parts" she means and she can't even give any explanation about it. I asked is that means my phone have to be hard reset and all the data will lost and she said YES. I complained, why there's no technician call and explain and ask me before they proceed with the repair? She just told me she don't know??? I requested for a new phone instead of waiting for the long repair process. Then suddenly she asked me to hold on the phone and she will contact the technicians again. And now she told me they just received the "parts" and will proceed with the repair immediately. Ohh ya received the parts within just few 10 minutes out of sudden after i complain?? So freaking fake >< I was really lazy to talk to her anymore and I said to her "fine, just make sure they repair as soon as possible and I want the phone by tomorrow". Of course she can't promises me, as expected.
Next day I called again and the phone repairing is done and ready to collect. But why again no technician calls me and informs about this?? I went over Samsung Center to collect the phone. It's the motherboard problem and they changed a new motherboard for me. Ya, it means all my data gone. All my photos and videos taken in Bangkok gone T_T And what happens? It is only two weeks and motherboard spoil? So unlucky. I should get myself an iPhone instead.

Event: Jogoya Facebook Fans Gathering
Date: 10th of September 2011
Time: 12.30pm - 2pm
Venue: Jogoya T3, Relish Floor, Starhill Gallery, 181, Jalan Bukit Bintang, 55100, Kuala Lumpur.
Just a "I'm attending" click and a short comment in Facebook event wall, I was one of the lucky one to be selected to join this gathering session and I'm allowed to bring one partner. In the beginning I was not so sure about what with this event but in the end I decided to attend ><"
On that day itself only i got to know this gathering is to meet the Jogoya founder. Err quite a fun gathering, got to meet Mr. Chiang Cheng-Nan (the Jogoya founder) and take a photo with him.
There's question and answer session which all the fans can win mystery gift (Jogoya umbrella and tiramisu cake).
There's a light refreshment for us as well. The foods are nice but too bad not enough for everyone. Maybe Jogoya should have prepare more for all the invited fans. Between, sorry that I do not have a nice picture of this. And this is the only picture I can get from Jogoya FB page.
Last but not least, a photo of me with the Jogoya founder :)
Till then, bye :)

Day to be remembered: 2011-09-21
Finally, I watched Nasi Lemak 2.0, a Namewee film.
For me it is quite a good movie, funny and many real phenomenon in Malaysia that need to be improved are well presented *thumbs up*. Doubtlessly, he is really the voice of the new generation of young Malaysians. And I like all the songs in the movie. I'm not going into details on this film, watch it urself to figure out more. But arr, can I ask why is it called Nasi lemak 2.0?? I still don't understand after the movie. For those who already watched this movie, mind to explain to me? Sorry I don't mean to be so stupid and slow ><"

Short update-------------
A special thanks to my friend who invited me to the premiere screening of this movie. Not to forget Nuffnang and Churp Churp too, for giving the opportunities to Nuffnangers and Churpers to participate in many premiere screening contest *appreciate*
I didn't watch any trailer or read any synopsis before I go for this movie. With least expectation, I guess this is why I enjoy the movie pretty much. I find it amusing and very entertaining, even though the story line is just simple and nothing much interesting. This is the first time I see Mr. Bean can talk (although he don't really speak much)!! And he is a spy (a fumbling spy instead lol). How cool :) Personally, I think this movie is worth watching, way better than "Cowboy and Aliens". At least, it makes you burst out laughing :)
*great movie, happy night*
More updates are "on the way", so please stay tune ♥

Stupid me! Fell down while I'm walking up the stairs. Sounds weird? Because most of the people fell when they walking down the stairs, not the other way round like me. It happened very fast and the pain almost kills me, worst pain ever. A bruise then occurred on my knee, within a few minutes. Look at the picture below:
#1 The bruise isn't clear because of the lighting in the room as well as the shadow of my hp. Skin peeled off ><" I don't know how to describe the pain, but it is really painful *bitter*
#2 This is how the bruise looks like after few days. I can't even walk properly and can't wear any long pants as well. Sighhhhhhhhhhh.
Since then, I walk slow while I'm on the stairs. *phobia* No more next time please. T.T

有个人,爱过了就结束了;
有句话,说过了就后悔了;
有道伤,痛过了就麻木了;
有颗心,颤过了就破碎了;
一段爱情,过深了就剧终了;
一段路口,过难了就错选了;
有些东西,放久了就会变质的;
有些事物,发展久了也会变质的;有些感情,因时间、距离而贬值;
爱那么短,遗忘却那么长。
Falling in love is awfully simple, but falling out of love is simply awful.
Pleasure of love lasts but a moment, Pain of love lasts a lifetime.
Never try to define love. Once defined love is confined. Once confined -- It dies.
I'm E.M.O. =(

Have u ever heard about Espress Cafe? I never realize the existence of this cafe until one day when we drive around Kota Kemuning and I spotted this cafe, hence dropped by for a short tea break. Let catch a glimpse on the photos I shared below for more.
One and only picture of the cafe that I snapped. Sincerely apologize for not taking more pictures to share and the photo quality that might annoys u. Quite a cozy place for u to dine in right? Not bad though and personally I like the design of this restaurant.
This is how's the menu looks like. Okay, I know there's nothing special on the design and maybe not worth a mention but I still want to share :p
The steak and chicken chop on the menu attracts my attention and other foods for example the noodles and burgers just not so suit my appetite and taste bud at that moment. And the very limited food varieties really made me head scratching don't know what to eat what to order.
Just found this cute, hence snapped a picture and share it here. Romeo & Juliet Mini burger, what a cute name :D
Spaghetti Aglio-Olio with mussels, RM9.50. Ordered this because we would like to try how nice is their look-simple-but-not-so-easy-to-cook spaghetti aglio-olio and we love the mussels. *Sigh, sorrowfulness overwhelmed* This spaghetti doesn't taste nice for us, a big disappointment.
Sizzling grilled chicken chop with black pepper sauce, RM11.90. Luckily this one taste nicer, worth a try.
Orange juice, RM5.50.
Chocolate snow ice, RM5.30. I love this a lots, especially the chocolate toppings! It blew me away. Heaven, and I found my happiness back after the spaghetti :)
Share with u here their menu, for ur reference: http://www.everyday.com.my/photo/2011/06/ExpressCafe3.pdf
Not really a very bad dining experience though. I won't ban this cafe and I will definitely visit again to try other foods maybe their coffee and the romeo & juliet mini burger :D Guess this outlet in Kota Kemuning is still new and they need improvements. The one in Klang looks awesome and receives quite many good feedbacks from customers.
A quote to share before I end this post:
Happiness often sneaks in through a door you didn't know you left open. ~John Barrymore
Let's be happy always and smile :)
