bud's vs br

i blog about BR's 31% discount on it's quality not too long ago.
trevor recommend me to go for bud's instead of BR, cheaper but quality remain.

i only found chocolate flavor ler?
he claim that was true but i was really doubt until i bought one yesterday.
rm17.59 for 1L or rm9.45 for 450ml, before discount.
at least 50% cheaper than BR.
i shall describe this premium ice cream as thick as haagen dazs, very creamy!
background - carrefour's potato bread + raisin
and you can fill the full and satisfaction after two scoop.
but i wondering they got too much chocolate concentration.
a bit too sweet on the second scoop.
but i'm sure the scoop worth the money.

i shall rank my favourite ice cream (take away) as below:
1-haagen dazs
2-bud's
3-nestle
4-wall's
5-BR! lol :P
haagen dazsing with toing @ shanghai
yet to try - new zealand natural!

happy birthday, PiNöLãm

this happened 3 days ago.
i had fun and enjoyed my day.
especially what toing planned for me, as well as the present.
i received my first present few days in advance from toing.
a neck tie. woohoo!
we went to dave's @ 1U to have my favourite oyster on my birthday eve.

dave's, located opposite friday's.
toing is waiting for the food~
appetizer - fresh oyster! they having promotion, rm35 for half dozen + a free sparking wine!
main course 1 - seafood pizza. dave's famous pizza, PiNöLãm recommended.
main course 2 - pork loin, medium rare chef recommended, PiNöLãm not recommended.
the food was too heavy and we end up take away half pan of pizza as supper.
but we regret tapao this pizza, it only good while serve hot.
after dinner, we went to our panel clinic to collect a medical report for my client, then we passby a massage center and... gone in.
then back home i received another gift which is a belt.
on the actual day itself, nic brought me to a siew yoke lunch.

very famous wong mei kee behind time square
then me and toing went back to office for some work after lunch.
job done, we go to tesco ampang to collect hand bouquet for mei's ROM, and ate a piece of cake as tea time at secret recipe.
durian flavor is now available and it's good :)
i think they got QC, unlike BR.
after that went back to time square, and toing bought me 3rd and 4th present which is both a pair of shoe :D
and she planned a surprise dinner for me, with my geng of buddy.
dinner at thai barbecue restaurant, jalan cempaka, cheras.
lots of obstacle to the restaurant but glad that all of us able to make it.
i knew toing spent some time and effort for this dinner, thanks dear.
went to karaok session after dinner.
princess come all the way from singapore to celebrate for me attend mei's ROM, then stay overnight at my house. (princess: don't worry about this, i still slept very well outside my room in my bro's room)
karaok session end 3am and i woke up 11am next day and continue another karaok session with my college buddy.
yeah 1pm til 5pm at neway time square (wtf time square again rite?!)
neway @ time square, i think they serve better food and environment compare to red/greenbox.
rush back home to bath after 2nd karaok session and attend john & vengie wedding dinner at pearl international hotel.
next morning i wake up earlier to have breakfast with my parents.
yeah it's sunday, and we must arrange some time for family mar.
finally a great dinner with toing at manhanthan fish market, cineleisure.
set dinner for two.
i think this is a bit oily, don't think i going to order this again.
finally, thanks for all the wishes from all party, really appreciate.
thanks for walking through my life.
thanks for the supportive and trust on me and toing.
thank you.

31% discount - on it's quality

i suppose to share some photo from melaka (especially the food - satay celup, chicken rice, durian cendol, laksa nyonya etc) but i think toing uploaded most of it in her friendster. check it out yo.
------------------------------------>
i'm not really an ice cream fans but once a while i would like to have some.
there was a day i saw an advertising on newspaper says it's 31st and baskin robbins giving 31% discount on their ice cream.
and i'm in the mood.
so i head to carrefour to grab one and this is what i bought.

what's your flavor?
i chose very berry strawberry.
i tried a few times in the shop (but not this flavor) and i had very good impression on baskin robbins.
i really look forward to taste and enjoy this bloody expensive snack when i on the way home.
my very first take away baskin robbins.
when you got hope, you got disappointment.
the upper level in this cup got no taste at all, the cream is not milky, and there's no strawberry inside.
i only finished the top 10%.
i wondering how could this happen and i left it in the fridge.
younger sis found it and ate 60%, claim that it was fine.
yesterday i was in mood again and wanted to give this very berry one more chance.
ya the same cup, there was 30% left.
so i ate a few spoon, it taste better than i thought.
when there's hope, here come the disappointment.
right after the few spoon, the bottom of the cup is all ICE.
ice cream - cream = ice.
ice with all the sweetener! pink color ice!

bloody hell baskin robbins.
wondering where's the quality control gone.

my wives

intro:
i got my first car since age of 18, dad bought it for me.
a brand new kancil 850 manual.
and that's the only car in my house, dad didn't own any cause his boss is kind enough to lend him one since the first day he work there.
the brand new kancil cost like rm28k++ @ 4% interest = rm500 per month for 5 years.
i know it's a burden for dad cause he is the only man who earn at home and we got 4 sibling to feed.
end up we still buying it and thanks to the systematic + well planned traffic at KL.
driving from my house to college is like 20mins+.
and 90mins by public transport (15mins walking to bus stop, 2 x bus with a interchange at chow kit, wait and queue at bus stop etc).
i got very excited of arrival of this big new toy, and i love her in my first sight.
she is green and cute with a random number plate.
ya we didn't choose the number plate to save cost.
i treat her like my wife, drive very carefully, bath her everyweek.

i work part-time and eat bread to buy gift for her.
i use all my money to buy a cd player so that she can sing well.
then i keep earning and saving to upgrade the sound system.
i buy amplifier, woofer and new speakers.
even cable and wiring cost me a few hundred bugs.
then i increase her cornering performance by upgrade the suspension and spring.
and a spoiler so that she looks more sporty.
i drive her everyday, race with mat rempit on the road, and woo toing.
i even propose to toing (to be my gf la) in this car.
so much of memories, good one and bad one.
ya, bad one like accident, bang people's car and bang by strangers.
who doesn't met an accident before anyway, especially newbie.
it's so common if you drive in the city everyday.
bang bang bang.
other bad memory is like someone punch into my car window and took away my cd player, coins, and sunglass.
wtf isn't?
then i take the responsible to pay the installment when i step into working life.
so the car end up cost like rm40k+ after settlement and those modifications.
then i thinking to change a new car after settlement.
see, human's behavior. lots of imagination when you got very little extra money.
the car dealer ask if i want to trade with my wife.
with a resale value of....rm6k!!!
rm40k -------> rm6k!!!
i say i rather keep it as my family / spare car, everyone can use.
i think i had more joy looking at her parking at roadside outside my resident than the stooopid rm6k.
once a while i still drive her to walk with me, telling her my stories.

so the intro end here and i gonna tell you the story.

~driving my little green~

so last week toing drive this little green to appointment.
right after 10mins she left home, i receive her call.
"kancil's glass suddenly broken! i'm coming back to change a car!"
"walao! don't need come in, i drive a car out to exchange with you."
see, from this dialogue you will think it's not serious, maybe the passanger screen broken or whatever. yeah i think so.
so i drive out and found toing standing at roadside, she gave me the car key and pointing at a parking space: "your wife is inside, i got to go."
ok fine, she is rushing and we didn't talk much.
so i found my wife at a corner, the windscreen is all cracked! like spider web!
then i press a little, and it looks like this:

and i shouted "woo~hoo~!" when the glass fall.

so what to do? the windscreen is not insured!
yeah. insurance agent doesn't purchase complete coverage for his own asset. wtf.
who knows this going to happen right?
it's just a spare car! and parking at roadside at most of the time!
but accident never happen in your prediction.
this is what we call unforseen circumstances.
i know i going to bear this risk since i never transfer the risk to insurance company.

on the way to repair.
eye cannot open, too windy. super windy. luckily no rain.
fortunately my bro-in-law own a workshop, and i got special offer.
i wonder i shall insured the windscreen on my next due?
it's just a spare car!
but accident could happen anytime, anywhere.
