She bought most of the books were discounted 90%. Whoa..that is really cheap..Actually I went yesterday but unfortunately the popular was not open for business as no electricity. So I went again today. 


There were lots of books, discount start from 20%-90%, some even sold for RM1. You need to spend some time on digging the books as it had mix up. They only arrange it into English books one side and Chinese books another side. Then divided into different range of discounts like 70%-90% a side and 50% another side. I spend around 2 and half hour there, really take time to find the books you want. Here are the books I bought:

Rango

I'm just back from watching this movie named Rango that has been released since 10 March 2011 in Malaysia. I like the most was not the storyline but some moral values inside the movies. I have attached the full story of Rango below:


In this movie, it is about a pet chameleon (Johnny Depp) becomes accidentally stranded in the Mojave Desert after his terrarium falls from his owner's car. After meeting an armadillo (Alfred Molina) who is seeking the mystical Spirit of the West, he narrowly avoids being eaten by a hawk. 
The next day, after having a surreal nightmare, he meets the lizard Beans (Isla Fisher), a rancher's daughter, who takes him to Dirt, an Old Westtown populated by desert animals.
 Beans discovers that the water reserves, stored in a water-cooler bottle in the bank, are dangerously low. At the saloon, the chameleon, using bravado and improvisation to fit in, presents himself as Rango, a tough drifter. He quickly runs afoul of outlaw Bad Bill (Ray Winstone), narrowly avoiding a shootout when the hawk returns, scaring Bill. The hawk chases Rango until by luck Rango kills the predator by crushing it under an empty water tower he's accidentally made collapse. 

In response, Mayor Tortoise John (Ned Beatty) appoints Rango the new sheriff. A skeptical Beans demands Rango investigate the water problem while the townsfolk worry that the hawk was the only thing keeping gunslinger Rattlesnake Jake from returning to terrorize them.That night, Rango inadvertently gives some mole robbers the location of the bank and tools to break into the vault. 
When the townsfolk find their water stolen, Rango organizes a posse that finds bank manager Merrimack (Stephen Root) dead. They eventually track the robbers to their mountain hideout, only for their leader, Balthazar (Harry Dean Stanton), to reveal that his clan of moles, prairie dogs and others greatly outnumbers the posse. Nabbing the covered wagon water-bottle, the posse flees, chased in a ground and air fight before discovering the bottle is empty. Despite the robbers professing that they'd discovered it empty, the posse returns them to town for trial.
After Rango and Beans deduce that the Mayor has been buying all the nearby land around, Rango recalls the mayor telling him how controlling water equals control of everything. He confronts the mayor, who denies he has done anything wrong and shows Rango that he is building a modern city on the old land.  
With no proof of the mayor's wrongdoing, Rango leaves, while the mayor orders one of his men to call Rattlesnake Jake (Bill Nighy) — who soon arrives, firing shots with his gatling gun tail, and recognizing that Rango is a fake. Jake runs him out of town after humiliating him and making him admit that everything he told the town about himself is a lie.
Ashamed and no longer knowing who he is, Rango wanders the desert and in a daze meets the Spirit of the West (Timothy Olyphant), a cowboy whom Rango calls the Man with No Name. The Spirit inspires Rango and tells him, "No man can walk out on his own story." With the aid of the armadillo and mystical moving cacti, Rango learns the source of Dirt's water is Las Vegas, and that someone has shut off a water line. Realizing the mayor's hand in this, Rango recruits the hill clan in his plan.
Returning to town, he calls out Jake for a duel — a diversion so that the hill folk and the cacti can flood the town with water. The mayor threatens Beans' life, forcing Rango to surrender. The two are put into the bank vault to drown, while the mayor prepares to shoot Jake, whom he calls a relic. However, Rango manages to take the only bullet from the gun and uses it to break the door of the vault, flooding the room and taking out the mayor and his men. Jake, acknowledging Rango as a worthy opponent for saving his life, grabs the mayor and drags him into the desert to take his revenge. The citizens of Dirt celebrate the return of the water and acknowledge Rango as their hero.Throughout the film, an owl mariachi band provides commentary that breaks the fourth wall.

James Foo & Family Western Food

Heavy downpour yesterday, but it just can't stop me from going there. Where will I bring you all today? Yes, the famous and well-known western food at Fettes Park. So I drove all the way to Fettes Park with my bunch of food kaki (some haven't been there before) to try out their western food. I thought they are closed from the old shop but then a new building which located beside the shop lot attracted me, instantly I recognised it was the shop. They have move to new building, bigger and spacious, even have their own parking lots but very limited space. I heard from one of the staff that they had just move in since Wednesday and the place was packed. 



We waited around 15 minutes to get our seat, we actually have to find our seat ourselves. No one serve us, just like their same old way in their old shop too.This can't be the way if you have move into another bigger place, need to be more systematic. Anyway, after we have ordered, we still need to wait around 1 hour and 15 minute before our meal served. We were excited before coming but then the waiting period make us lost appetite. Maybe they have just move to new place still need some time to suit but I do not think this should be an excuse plus 2 out of 3 toilet are floated and the last one is very dirty. I think they should ensure everything is in good condition before they start their business. A very bad impression to those who are first time visit this place. Furthermore, the price had increased too.

Anyway, let me talk about the food. 

Fresh Mushroom Soup-RM3.00
 I like the taste of this creamy mushroom soup with slices of fresh mushroom. It not salty at all like those in PizzaHut.

Fresh Garden Salad-RM5.00
The Garden Salad recommended by my friend but I think it is just normal  salad with thousand island sauce. There is nothing really special to me plus my friend complaint they have change the cherry tomatoes to normal slices tomatoes. Cut costs?
Breakfast all day-RM6.50
One of my friend order this because he do not have appetite that day. There is nothing special about it and I think it is more suitable for kid meal rather than breakfast set. Anyway, one of my friend was saying how can they serve breakfast set when they do not open for breakfast. Erm..I was wondering too..

Grilled Chicken & Fish Combo-RM10.00
I personally like this very much. The chicken was very juicy and tender. The fish is very fresh. Normally I hate to order fish in western food restaurant as the fish always came with fishy smells (frozen fish?) but this does not. The mushroom sauce I guess taste great with the combination of chicken and fish.

Chicken Gordon Bleu-RM10.00

Always my priority dish in this restaurant. I guess everyone will agree with me too. The most famous dish of all because no matter how many time I come most of my friends will order this. They said this place served the best Gordon Bleu. I do agreed. It is hard to describe the taste but I'm sure everyone coming back to order this.  

Not to forget to order the juices. Most people like to order the Jumbo size as it is worth but for me a normal size is enough. 
Watermelon Juice-RM3.50
Orange Juice Jumbo-RM6.00
Ambra Plum Juice-RM3.50
 In case anyone do not know the place, I have draw a map out:

fear or shock?

3 questions finish in 2 and half hours?
Great, everyone think it is easy.
Can you imagine if you have to spend the next 2 and half hour writing non-stop?
plus you cant even have the time to go to toilet but to look and write?
and u can only glance through the each questions and start writing and counting until the end?
This I experienced yesterday.
Worst thing is my hand was shaking when he stood in front of  me (or side) to read my answer.
Gosh..cant he just be a normal lecturer and just sit in front monitor us?
Anyway, nothing I fear except his surprise sms or announcement.
bye bye TS for the moment.
Next assignment and fyp..

McDonald's giving 2 free Big Breakfast(continue)

After posting up about it, I was too excited and drive to the nearest McD to check out whether the voucher is valid. The result is yes and the place is packed. I got 2 free ala carte Big Breakfast (without drink) after pay RM5.05 for hotcake set. You just have to print out the voucher either in colour or black and white. You can just crop out the below voucher and save some ink than printing out whole page like me (too excited i guess). Here's the link again.



So if you are a person like me who only want to spend the minimum RM5 to get the 2 free Big Breakfast. Here is a tip I can show you. See the photo below, it is the Weekday Breakfast special. There are 4 sets to choose from, the tip is you can only choose from the set which stated RM4.50 but after tax it is only RM4.80 not enough for RM5 yet. So what can you do? add another extra set? No. Just upgrade your coffee or tea to hot milo for RM0.25. The price now is RM4.75 before tax and RM5.05 after tax. How smart I can be..wahaha..I got the information from my brother actually.:) So go to your nearest McD with the voucher and enjoy your 2 free Big Breakfast, valid until 31 March 2011. By the way, if you have order milo and want another cup of coffee, you can actually take your cup and refill coffee since coffee is refillable and best thing is the milo is contain in the coffee cup.They will think you are taking coffee. A kinda trick and maybe it is bad. I have not try yet but just to share with you all.

Nippon Yataimura Japanese Restaurant (日本屋台村)

I was craving for Japanese food for a week now. Finally, I bum into one of the Japanese restaurant which is just opposite Kenny Rogers at Queensbay. It is called Nippon Yataimura, not sure whether it is the same as KL one. The cat look the same to me as the KL Nippon. The place was small and there is only a small and narrow road to go inside. The tables are suitable for 2-4 person, I guess I cant have a big gathering there.I was thinking to have sushi but there isn't any conveyor belt for sushi, everything have to order from the menu. Sushi varieties were not much and mostly are bento box and ramen. Anyway, there are some photos I took but I can't remember the name of the food I order (can't write down the name, sorry). The taste was not bad. There have Pork Mayo Ramen,I will come back to try next trip. I love Pork Mayo Ramen in Oh Sushi.




Salmon

RM19.00



RM19.80
The price was reasonable. Best thing is no chargers for green tea. There is no govt tax but 10% service charge. Even no chargers for the wet tissues unlike Sushi Zanmai.

A sudden feeling

Today, I have a feeling to do something new. So, after lunch with my family, I stop my car in front of a salon and went into to have a hair cut. Not knowing what is the name of the salon, or whether who will be cutting for me. I have such a sudden. I just nodded my head at the counter that I'll cut after telling me the price. Actually i didn't notice what is she talking also.wahaha..too eager to get my hair cut off. I need a new hair style! Okay, I still cant accept to cut a short hair so I ask the hair stylist to remain my long hair length but a different look for my fringe. There I got my new fringe look.

Maths Night 2011

There came again our school night-Maths Night 2011 which held in Cititel this year. This year theme-Dream Without Boundaries and we were asked to dress up in professional like Doctor, Nurse and etc but many ignored the theme included me..wahaha..to me it is a bit ridiculous to wear those to our night. For me, Maths Night is the only place we can dress pretty and do some make over for ourselves. Everyone dress very well that night,  some I even cant recognised too.  


At 1st, I did not plan to join although it is my last year. I have been Maths Night for two year to help out. But all thanks to Maths School who sponsor us third year who are in dean list. I'm so fortune to be one of them. So, as usual everyone when to find salon to set hair and make up but not for me this year. I hate to spend too much time in the salon and sometimes you get some junior staff that just ruined your hair. I experienced it most of the time. Maybe I too picky. So for this type of person like me, I decided to do it myself. Whoa..probably people wont believe but yes, I did it successfully (not boasting myself).


This year the ballroom a bit small, not as crowded as last year. We can see among 18 people from M&E only 9 of us attended and 8 of us came for free. That is the problem for this year. Most of us came because of free of charge. If you ask me will you attend if you need to pay. I'll sure reply no. Why? I don't see commitment from the committees to encourage us third year to attend. Maths Night is originally organised for all third year students but seem like they have forgotten the purpose. Most attendances are from 1st year and 2nd year students.   MCs are bad this year, I can said they do not have enough practice because throughout the whole event, they kept on pause and speak wrongly. Their sketch not bad but not very good too as words are not clear and the whole storyline is blur. Many of us don't understand what are they doing up there. Even, the VVIP asked us what are they doing now.. That is bad..


Group photos will not missed for this kind of event. We never missed a single time to take photos with everyone. It seem like this is the last time I can have such photos with everyone. Three years I have been there, every year i get different feel and expression. This year we are the seniors, i do not have the chance to find seniors to take photo like last year. I don't feel very high this year, I see my group of people like a bit serious, is it thinking of assignment?


So after Maths Night, of course we won't let ourselves to go back so early. Wahaha..naughty.. We are in Upper Penang Road, what should we do? Of course, clubbing man! So, we drove there although it is so so near from Cititel. We have to pay RM10 for parking. That is expensive! Cititel only charge us RM4 per entry. Nevermind, how many times can we come here? One and only last? It is Friday night, surely we can see all the place are crowded with people. They decided to go ONECLUB because they provide seat compare to others. Girls are wearing high heels and we have been standing whole night, can not let our legs to suffer again. Whole place was packed by us only. Can you imagine only us inside and it is Friday night. Weird?


I still haven manage to find out reasons why people not coming into this place but opposite. Maybe no pretty girls? saw only two girls serve us..or Maybe music not nice? Okay, the music not fluent, kept on hang..Drinks too expensive? Cannot be, the price is about the same everywhere. Anyone know? As usual, photo taking again.
