Whirlwind Weekend

Actually, I didn't think of updating wan... but since ehon dropped a comment saying that he 'sensed' I'm gonna update soon, I couldn't bear to let him down. So, I'll just update for the sake of updating.

Well, it has been a hectic weekend, started with Friday evening's dinner at TGIF, followed by dessert (yummy!!!) at Bakerzin Bangsar Village, Saturday brunch at Ah Sang's Bak Kut Teh in PJ, Saturday evening's Satay Party at Mudpie's, followed by Apocalypto and half of 300, Sunday's brunch at Jarrod & Rawlins, Damansara Heights area with a group of beautiful people, then followed by a sneak preview of the Queen's New Palace (very wow!) and to round it up, an ice cream treat over at The Curve's Baskin Robbin's.

Swedish Stories Chapter VI (a)

ShortYaks: Is there anything wrong with youtube.com and petalingstreet.org? Or something is wrong with MY internet connection?? Something WAS wrong with my connection. After resetting it, things are back to normal...

I got a replacement battery for my ApPearl Macbook a few days ago. Yeah, it was the battery that kaputed...

Chapter I
Chapter II
Chapter III


skansen01

It's been more than a month since I last wrote about my Swedish adventures. So today I'll continue to share with you some of the nicest place in this Scandinavian country. I mentioned to Narrowband once, that one of my favouritest place in Sweden is Skansen. I quote from its website, "Skansen is the oldest open-air museum in the world. Skansen is also a zoological park. It is located on the island of Djurgården, a royal park near the centre of Stockholm, and open every day of the year, except Christmas Eve."


skansen02

Mini map of Skansen at the entrance.

The interactive map can be found here.



skansen04

Got Stage & Restaurants, Fairground, Aquarium, Zoo...

We did not finish visiting everything in Skansen because we only allocated half day for this place. It's a pity actually... So, if you were to go to Skansen, make sure you spend the whole day there! There are alotta things to do and to see!



skansen03

Can never get bored taking pics of looking at the tulips...



skansen06

Some of the buildings under the category
Living History.
You know what's fun about this place? Inside most of these buildings, they actually made it 'alive' with people. Yeah, with folks who are historical interpreters in that period's costume. How cool is that? V E R Y C O O L ! ! !



skansen08


Give you an example... this is the Älvros Farmstead,
a typical northern Swedish farm
.



skansen07

This old man can be found inside the farmstead, sharpening some wood,

not too sure what the purpose was,
but it looked like some work for this ah pek...

A Birthday & A Sad Love Story

Happy Burfday to Pookyma PKM!!!

iphone_cake

Young chap's birthday today. Met him briefly during our trip to Penang 2 weeks ago. Really young ciku, I tell you... Made me, chen & lb felt so.........


Once upon a time, there was this girl who's so in love with her boyfriend. After 3 years of courtship, suddenly she found out that something has changed in her relationship with her bf. He was not as loving to her as before. She tried to dismiss all suspicions but to no avail.

One day, she 'forced' the bf to tell her what the problem was. He didn't want to say anything. Kept insisting that nothing's wrong. A few days after that, he took her to a coffee shop and broke the news to her. He told her that they are not ngam for each other. She thought, "Not ngam?!" Not ngam then what were those 3 years of courtship??

She just couldn't accept the fact that her relationship was over. She spent days and nights crying over him. Friends console her but just couldn't make her feel better. She went and begged him not to leave her. But he was adamant. He said, "It's too late..." and ordered a packet of Salem. She was stunned. Because he never smoked before. Well, not in front of her, obviously.

He started puffing away. They had early dinner that day. But of course, nothing went down her tummy that night. She was...

broken-heart

After that evening, she schemed about how to get back at him. (Not how to get him back.) She had 1001 plans in her mind. But nothing was put to action.

Because sometime after that, she learnt that while she was with him, he brought home some Mama-san from nightclubs. She couldn't believe her ears when one of his friends told her. She was horrified and thought, "How could he had done that to her?!" But reality was, he did that. She also learnt later that he got together with his clerk. Their relationship lasted quite a number of years but in the end, he left dumped her too.

Another few years down the road, she learnt that he got married to a Shanghainese lady. One fine day, out of the blue, he called her. At that time, the last they met was 6-7 years ago. They agreed to go for dinner that night.

She was nervous of course. She didn't know what to expect. He came to pick her up in a cab because he was just stopping by for the night. He looked the same, some things just don't change. They caught up on old times and went for some drinks after dinner, then it was time to go home.

On the way home, he asked her to give him another chance. Of course she was shocked. She thought, "It's been a long time and now he wants a second chance?!"

Without thinking, she looked at him and said, "No."

This time, he was shocked. Then, he gave her a very sad look. He even begged her. He was persistent but she stood firm. He looked out the window, holding her hands. She looked at him and kept quiet. He kissed her hands, just like how he used to when they were together. The journey back home was an unusually long one.

Before she got down from the car, he asked her again, "Are you sure?"

She replied, "Yes, I am..." and got down from the car. She never looked back again...

Sekian, tamat.

So how was my storytelling skills??

Nolah, the reason was because I wanted to share this other song by Blue Lagoon, the German euro-pop band! Another cover song, What Becomes of The Broken Hearted. This is the latest cover for this song. Another cover of the same song was done by Westlife in year 2000. The original singer was Jimmy Ruffin who sang the song in 1966. Here are the three versions of the song. My favourite is of course the one by Blue Lagoon laaa... Enjoy!

Today, a few things didn't go MY WAY. I read some stuff and went "GRRRR!!!" One day, you shall see the Evil in me lashed out in this Paradise Playground, I tell you... one fine day...

The pictures above are what I've taken for my cough. And it's not showing any signs of cure. Then, dear eastcoastlife recommended this. She said, I can get it from Petaling Street. Does anyone know if I can get it somewhere else? Like in PJ? Or Puchong, better still... Thank you very much, ecl...

THHC™ Chapter 15 - Let's Spoon! JomPeluk!©

Aloha! Sorry to keep you waiting for July's result... Life has been really hectic the past week! People to see, work to finish, new boutique to go, party to attend, keik hei-ness to endure (among other things...) 1001 things all in the same week! Hopefully, next week my office and social schedule will slow down a bit. But then again, I've never felt this alive before! Muahahaha... *aiyak, I just remembered a dream I had last night about ah tak!*



Anyway, this is a very nice song which I heard from rixfm.com. This is a Swedish radio station and I totally love the songs they play. The mixed type. And they play some songs by some European groups which we might not have heard before and they do very nice remixes. Like this one by Blue Lagoon, a German pop reggae group, who did a remix of the song Heartbreaker. After listening it the first time, I quickly Limewired it and found it! Yippies! And I just found the music video on youtube. Enjoy! Oh and don't be a Heartbreaker, will ya'?

Happy Sunday!
