Mom vs Dad...

Watched this from YouTube ... So Funny...yet so true...
And a proof that Moms from all over the world as the same.... :D:D



Of course... after we have Mom's version, we have Dad's version too ^_^

Enjoy.....




It is what it is...... ;p

Size does matter!!!

So what are you thinking about?!

I am talking about food okay...... ;p

For the same money we are paying for the food in US vs Malaysia... the meal size is a huge gap!

I am talking about 1 to 1 currency conversion...for example, you are earning RM3k in Malaysia and you spend RM10 for meal vs you are earning USD3k in US and spend USD10 for the same meal.....the plate you will get in Malaysia might be big, but the food portion is small, just some pieces of chicken meat maybe... but for US meal, the food portion you are getting is damn huge, so generous that it is more than enough for 2 persons' dinner...

See this... Popcorns!!!!

Most youngsters love popcorns... and popcorns are a must for couples going for a movie...

But back in Malaysia, I seldom buy popcorns...

Why? 1st, it doesn't taste really good and not crispy enough, toooooo expensive for sucha small box costing around 15bucks or more...

Nahhhhh!!!! See this???!!!! This is US popcorns!!! For few bucks, this is what you get...eat till you drop!!!! This popcorn size is 5 times the size you get in Malaysia.....

Not only that..... look carefully at the popcorn.... each and every popcorn is a full whole rounded big kernel; very crispy, juicy, buttery sweet and you will get addicted!!!

US popcorn is definitely the best I have tried... !!!

Nahh.... look closerrrr.......

Frankly I haven't seen Malaysia selling big perfect rounded juicy crispy popcorn before...
Even if there is... I doubt it would be in a reasonable price range and would not be in a generous portion...

Malaysia popcorn industry really has to improve their food quality and we need to improve our value to money...

About other food......

Even Chinatown in US, the Chinese restaurants are offering very generous food size...

This is a plate of combo for 2 persons for 10bucks in the States....

Back in Malaysia... this is probably the food size for 6-8 persons... and definitely be >30bucks...

See the big and thick pieces of pork meat...

Malaysia style... you will just a paper thin piece of small pork meat which cost you the same bucks.. That pice of meat you see in the pic, Malaysia hawkers and butchers can slice it into 4 thin pieces and sell them as 4 pieces.... -___-'''

Let's talk about appetizers...

It is very common in the States that their salad appertizers are free flow... eat all you can.. not to mention the huge portion of fresh salad that they serve.....

hey.. if you can finish this salad appetizer, you can ask for replenishment... and I can assure you, the salad is really good!!

I did also took this pic of a special appetizer @Pappadeaux... fried alligator's meat...

You can just see the portion of just appetizer, so generously big..

Malaysia's appetizer? Nahh.. not even interested to order any...

This is Bone Daddy's, typical ever famousTexas BBQ Steak Bar..

Alot of customers... Alot of happy and satisfied customers.... Why??

Not to mention that all the food are super delicious and you will crave for it, the portion is gigantic... I ordered roasted chicken... and I got this... *___*

The whole chicken....

Guess what you get in Malaysia for the same order.... ??

One drumstick...

A monk's act...

Saw this in today newspaper online............

*rub eyes*

Total Speechless....

The moral of the story is... the next time you go for a flight, and you see any monk taking the same flight, better of to give up the ticket and go for the next flight...

RM10?

Saw this news online...

Did I read wrongly? To cut RM10 from the Minister's salary?

Is is plain stupid? or IDIOT is a better description for this...

Cut RM10 from a Minister's salary as a punishment for the bridge fell off incident?

What is the value of RM10 to a Minister? Hello...??!!! Did I miss something here????!

I think our politicians need some consultations from a brain surgeon and do some MRI checking...

Trip to Borneo Highlands, Kuching

Few days before my wedding, we went for a trip to Borneo Highlands. A lot of people kept telling me Borneo Highlands is a very beautiful place laa...very serene laa... how nice how nice blabla... so must go have a look... :)

So here we are... me and my mum in front of the entry point of Borneo Highlands... with 6 different welcoming languages...

5 of us, with my in laws.. This is the Boreno Highlands shuttle (modified from a lorry) to bring us up the mountain...

The winding zigzag road up the mountain... greenery all the way..

Tall tree, with very weird smooth trunk..

Very Very tall tree, stands out from the rest...

Must rajin buy Jackpot now... then I can buy this beautiful bangalow with greenery surroundings, very serene and peaceful as said...

Welcoming 'Misai Kucing Tea' when reach the Borneo Highlands Lobby...no bad for Tea lovers..

And by the way, here in Borneo Highlands, it is strictly 'Vegetarian'... No Meat!! For those that can die without meat... probably you need to think twice before staying long here..

After the small tea break, the shuttle brought us to the peak of the mountain... this place is called the 'Southwest Kalimantan View', 3,281 feet above sea level.... this is quite a height....!

The blue sky just looks gorgeous....The unspoilt land of nature...

Looking down the valley from the peak....is just 'Wow'!!!! Amazing nature that we still have, hopefully to be conserved well for years to come..

Feel just so calm and relax here.... been a while I have lost this kinda tranquility inside...I found it back here...

Then the shuttle brought us to the Flower Plantation where they have all the types of flowers you can and can't name of...

Like this silvery white plant... I have no idea her name, but I have only seen it before in the US and it is a super beautiful decoration for the perfect White Christmas.......

One ball of reddish flower...dunno the name but it is strikingly beautiful, and rarely seen outside..

This is the ever popular 'Misai Kucing' which they use to make the 'Misai Kucing Tea' or in Mandarin '猫须茶'...

Some special types of Lavender I think... is just whitey green plant without purple flowers...never seen this before....

Flowers with different colors mixed together... when you take a closer look at them, they are really amazingly beautiful...

Very rare natural blue flower... so blue...

Beautifully grown cactus!!! I like this plant...Very healthy looking..

Bees on the yellow flowers......

Beautiful red dots all over the Garden, very refreshing :)

Big green garden un-polluted, hidden away in the valley of Borneo Highlands..

See the green.....got mountain, got water, got pavement.... so gorgeous and so relaxing... so, so refreshing~~~

Flowers in the colors of rainbow....enchanting as it is...

Outta the blue, there is a habitat on the mountain, rearing rabbits....!!

The rabbits all caged in a well spacious long house type of hut. There are white ones, blackies, and also mixed greyish types... all of them super adorable.... so cute that I almost wanted to take one back home...!!

Lily!!!! Very big, fully blossom lily from the pond... so fresh it looks like a painting... but trust me, it is a real genuine lily....

And I love Lavender........I always think Lavender is the prettiest among all, and this very Lavender Garden just stands out from all others around it..... So purple I thought I am somewhere in New Zealand....

Overlooking Borneo Highland view from the restaurant...

Before we get ready to go down from the mountain, the sky started to turn dark and black clouds floated by... and I just in time to capture this eerie image....

A memorable day trip, 100% refreshed.
