Okay. So we’re going to put ugly, full-colour pictures of deformed, rotting body parts on cigarette packs to gross out the smokers and get them to quit their nasty habit. A bit overdue but good la. And no, I’m not being my usual sarcastic self. I’m serious. I detest smoking and by extension, all the [...]

I went to Bukit Nanas. Somebody had to.
Okay, so I stole that opening line from Bill Bryson’s book The Lost Continent (which is hilarious, btw) but I think you can already tell just from that how my visit went. Yup. Uh huh. You got that right.
I wanted to visit Bukit Nanas because … uh, I can’t remember why. No wait. I do. [...]

Doing The Rounds At Kiara Park
We’ve been going to Kiara Hill twice every weekend for over a year now and every once in a while, we pop over to the neighbouring Kiara Park. I personally like the Hill better cos it’s a tougher workout. The Park’s very pretty and all, but I don’t really fancy running around in circles … [...]

Bungling About To Cherakah
It was a long weekend and we wanted to be a little adventurous because you know, routine is the enemy. So, we decided to check out Bukit Cherakah in Shah Alam instead of the usual Kiara drill. After all, a few rounds around a humongous agricultural park would be a perfect start to the day [...]

Ah Seng (Alor) Now & Forever
We now have an ending to the whole four-day Alor saga. Looks like Alor will remain Alor (for those of you who read my previous post, ie. Ah Seng will remain Ah Seng after all). Only in Malaysia, we have stories like this. I swear to god, if all the comedy writers will just come [...]

My Name Is Ah Seng And I’m 35 Years Old

I’ve Found The Cure To Cancer, Diabetes, AIDS, Acne & Mood Swings
I care a lot about my health. That’s why I try to eat fruits and vegetables and avoid things that can lead to an untimely death (eg. poisonous plants, gasoline and most recently, char siew paus).
My health is also why I’ve kept one particular flyer tucked safely in my journal for a year. Every once [...]

A Walk In Perdana Park
Ah, Taman Tasik Perdana (aka Lake Gardens) … the city’s oldest and most popular park. Apparently, it dates back to sometime in the 19th century! I’ve been there a few times and I never knew that. The thing with TTP is that it’s big (all 91 hectares of it) and pretty well-maintained. Walking around there, [...]

Nicely dressed – Rompin MP praises Teresa’s dressing
There were only two stories under Dewan Rakyat yesterday and one of them was Nicely dressed – Rompin MP praises Teresa’s dressing (the other was about some police beat base in Chow Kit which is so bad that even “the police themselves are scared and running away”).
Some BN MP (whose name I can’t be bothered [...]

Remembering FRIM
Yes, I’m revisiting FRIM. In pictures. The last time I was there was four years ago. Was frequenting it for a while before I dropped it all together. It’s not to say it isn’t a nice place. It is. It’s just that I didn’t find it much of a challenge (cheh wah, like real).
FRIM – [...]
