The Expendables
Sunday, 22 August 2010

NB: Not even going to give you a spoiler alert because serioues, this show has nothing to be spoilt. :P
Went to watch The Expendables the other day after having Japanese buffet with my friends in the Equatorial Hotel. We were celebrating my friend's, Nicky butt's bday and also kinda like Yee Boon's cause we didn't have a chance to meet up with her during her bday. :P

Anyways, Nick had already booked us all tickets to the movie in Pavillion and that's where we headed after lunch.


When me and my bf saw the poster (not the one above - but the one which features all the faces of the cast), we knew instantly that the movie will be only full of action. And that it was! For those who don't know, the cast includes action veterans like including Stallone, Dolph Lundgren, Mickey Rourke, Jet Li, Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The movie was a whole lot of "bang bang bang" and felt like it was 6 rambo guys put together to make this movie (although I don't really remember what Rambo was about). These 6 people could even freakin' take down a WHOLE army without getting hurt! WTF! Oh, best part about it was, whatever dialogue they had (which was not much) in the movie, it felt like it wasn't even written and it kinda given the cast a free hand on what they wanted to say because everything didn't make sense! It was a lot of 1 liners or alot of lines which STILL didn't make sense.

Having said all that, I guess the movie was alright - in a sense that it managed to generate some talkability (alebit not good ones). Because, that's all we were talking about during dinner and how crap the movie was. LOL! Ok la, ok la, need to give face to the veteran action movie stars - the movie would be perfect for guys cause all they did was just blast things up! :D

Anyway, trailer for movie below:

The Reason I've been M.I.A
Friday, 20 August 2010

I once had a aim to blog every other day for the month of August but I guess that didn't work. Haha! And the reason I have been missing this whole week? See below:


Haha! Anybody recognise this interface?! LOL! It's UFO Xcom Enemy Unknown! When my bf told me that his friend had managed to find the game and downloaded it, he tried explaining it to me but it was still a blur. After seeing the interface above though, I got so excited! Haha! I used to watch my brother play this game when I was a kid and even had a go at it myself! So yea, bf installed it and have been playing this the whole week!

Besides this, also have been occupied with something else. I'll post a blog about it once it's ready! Haha! Till then, hopefully I'll get inspired to blog about something else first in between! :D Laters..

Kafe Indulge @ Off Old Klang Road
Saturday, 14th August 2010

*NB: Photos will look kinda sucky cause they were taken with my BB because I didn't bring my camera.

Went out for dinner with bro and his family, and dad last night and went to this place called Kafe Indulge off Old Klang Road. Think mum first heard of this place when it was featured in the newspapers earlier this year. Since then, this is my 2nd time back although I think my family has been back a few more times than me.


Place is nothing special (ie. no special deco etc.) but food is decent and affordable too.

For starters, we ordered the Ceasars Salad to share and dad ordered an Oxtail Soup.


Ceasar Salad was decent. Had good quantities of cheese on it so it was quite yummy. The Oxtail soup on the other hand was different. The texture was more like curry than soup. Have never had Oxtail soup like this before. It was also quite tasty and it came with 2 pieces of meat inside.

For the mains, we ordered:


German Bratwurst (is that how u spell it? :P) with mash potato and saurkraut


Beef ribs with chips served with what tasted like black pepper BBQ sauce. I particularly liked this dish because they did it quite nicely. Meat was tender and easy to get off the bone. Sauce was also generous which is always a plus for me especially if the sauce is yummy. =) 


Lamb shank served with carrots and potatos

The last main, I didn't manage to get but it was just Spaghetti Carbonara with beef. It was served with 2 piece of garlic bread as well. And for desert, we ordered, 


Cheesecakse with chocolate drizzle on the top. And also some apple something. Can't remember what it's called. 

Do not have the individual pricing, but the whole meal for 4 people came up to (all the above, including 2 drinks) RM115. Dad even brought his own wine which they didn't charge corkage for. =)

Salt Needs some Pepper
Thursday, 12 August 2010

Bf talking to sister: We watched Salt the other day

Bf's sister: Oh, how was it?

Bf: It needed some pepper.

Liyen: Shakes head and faints at the side.

LOL! I'll leave it up to everyone to think what they want about the comment. Haha! Anyway, as per the usual:

*Spoiler alert - please do not continue reading if you would not like to know any content of the show whatsoever. However, will also try to give my opinion without revealing too much (if that's possible)*


Salt featuring Angelina Jolie. Wasn't actually too keen on the movie for some reason however because there were no other shows available, we decided to watch this instead. If not mistaken, think me and bf went out to try and get tickets to Inception (which we now have seen - review to come later). 

Well, judging from my bf's conversation above, don't think he liked the movie too much. He thought the movie was predictable and only had just mindless action the whole way through. I on the other hand, didn't think it was that bad though. Kinda already expected Angelina Jolie to be like the hero of it all. For the feminist, I guess they'll be happy cause she kinda kills everyone along the way but not sure how I feel about that. Just a tad too much I think. 

Movie kinda really begins when Salt had to interrogate a Russion spy only to reveal a little secret that she now has to run for her life. ROFL! I guess I kinda gave that away already huh? LOL! Well, just in case I didn't, I guess you have to watch the movie to find out. And for those who know what I'm talking about, well, then you just have to watch the movie to see what happens in the end. LOL! This being cryptic thing isn't working too well here. LOL! Gahh! Here's the trailer. See for yourself! :P

Thailand Day 3
Tuesday, 10 August 2010

It was our final day in Thailand! And I hadn't bought anything yet NOR have we gone to a massage! How can! The things I wanted to do the most and I hadn't done it yet! Anyways, woke up early again - this time, to make sure we have enough time to do whatever we wanted to do.

So we woke up, packed up our luggage because we had to check out before leaving the hotel as we were only going to come back later in the evening before we left for the airport. First thing on the list? Get a freakin massage! Haha! We headed out to one of the spas in Thailand called Healthland. This place is now a chain in Thailand.


Photo of outside the spa. 

After the massage, we went to Siam Paragon to check out their food court. Pretty nice have to say. They did it well - kinda like Pavilion style but nicer! Haha! They had a wide range of choices for us to choose from. 


Check out their freakin' chickens!! They look like ducks! or rather pregnant chickens! Way bigger than our freakin Malaysian chickens. Haha! :P

Anyways, after lunch, we headed over to my beloved MBK! Muahahaa.. now that's where all the shopping started. Bought my dresses, food, etc!



Once again, the photo will not rotate. But look at all the weird stuff they have there! haha! 


Haha! huge ass crocs shoe with bf's finger sticking out the holes. 

After walking pretty much the main areas of MBK, we decided to head back to the hotel early cause we had to pack all the new stuff we bought during the day and thank god we did! It was raining and it took forever to get a taxi AND get back to the hotel. And from the hotel, took a while to get to the airport! So by the time we actually got there, it was just right timing! Checked in, got dinner, and then headed to the gate straight away. 

Speaking of dinner, me and bf thought since we've already had so much local food during our trip, we'd go for some western food and what's better than...

Burger King!!! *drool*

The thought of Burger King in a foreign country - a country full of pork just got me excited because that only meant 1 thing! BACON DELUXE with ACTUAL BACON in it! Woah! Even thinking of it now also I "lau hao sui". That's like my fav. burger of all time when I was in aus! Haha! Everytime after I eat it, I get so sick but it was so damn worth it! Haha! But too bad, they didn't serve it and I had to resort to a Double Cheese burger. As my bf was lining up for food, all of a sudden, he came back and whispered in my ear, "babe... each value meal is like RM25!". My eyes lit up and my forehead scrunched. How can that be?! How can a freakin' FAST FOOD meal cost RM25? I squinted my eyes (didn't bring my glasses) and checked and yes! It was freakin 245 baht for a meal!!! Me and bf quickly took our luggage and literally walked off to check out other places to eat. Bf checked though that all the other places were also about the same price! So we decided to go back to Burger King. For 2 meals, that how much it costed us to eat at the fried chicken place the night before for 5 people!!

Woah! This is ridiculous man! It's like the govt is punishing us in the airport for buying all the cheap stuff in bangkok itself! It's like.. "Let's kill them before they leave the country". So next time guys, word of advice? Eat before u get to the airport! Photos of our meal below.. come on.. it was freakin RM25 for fast food man. I HAD to take photos!


Picture of our meal


Picture of the burger. Not to say damn nice also.. something was missing. Maybe not enough sauce or something. I don't know. Maybe it's just psychological cause I know we paid RM25 bucks for the burger. Haha!


Us staring in awe at our RM50 meal... :S

I now have a mission to go to all airports to eat burger king to see how much it'll cost. Of course, only applicable if the airport DOES have a burger king. :P
