Today is 29092009, i got a few friends whose birthday is today, here i would like to wish them "Happy Happy Birthday and many happy returns!"

Today also is my 11 years wedding anniversary, no celebration, we just had simple dinner on Sunday night, as knowing weekday is always busy. We had Japenese food, initially, we want to dine in Rakuzen, but it is always fully booked, especially on weekend, so we end up at this small and cosy Izakaya Ichiban at Hartamas.

A friend from down under....(part I)

My friend cum ex colleague from "R" Hotel was back for holidays with her family last week. Two years back that is the first time i met with her two kids. Although, she "stay" far away, we still keep in touch and every year without fail, she will remember my birthday and my boys's birthday and not to mention greeting cards on the festival season.

I met up with her at one of the Korean restaurant @ SS2 together with another 3 more ex colleagues. We have not seeing each other since we left hotel about 13 years ago??? That is a long long time, even though all of us are staying in KL, but we never bump into each other at anywhere, strange? So this is the good time to catch up.

After work, rush home *lucky last week was school raya holidays, so there is no homework*, after changed the boys and had my shower, then rush out to meet up with my friends. Lucky the traffic was ok, but i still a bit late. :)

It is really nice to catch up with them again, we had a good time chit chatting. My two boys at first behave well, *survey the place first, before they start their naughty* later when they got warm up with Nic ( Karen's elder son), my boys making a lot noise, start running here and there. :( Mia (Karen's daughter) was sleeping, as she was tired after their Sunway Lagoon trip.


When we about to leave, Karen woke Mia up, and we got chance to take a group photo together. When we about to take the group photo, i introduce Mia to my boys, telling them this is their new friend, Nic's sister, Mia, Cruz said this " NO, SHE IS PRINCESS!!!!" We all had a good laugh!! Now you tell me is Mia look like a princess? She is pretty and so sweet and shy!!

condiments ...


korean way sizzling squid?

this is yummylicious,

This is only some part of the food, we order quite a lot and i'm too busy eating and "shouting" at the boys stop running!!!! That's why not much pictures from me. hahahhaha

Finally a group photos. Dont ask me why nowsaday Fearles take picture like to open his mouth big big or close his eyes, this is his latest style of taking pictures!!!

Long raya holidays.....

we did not go anywhere, we just stay at home, knowing everywhere will be jam. What we did over the long holidays?

On Saturday morning, i brought my boys for their favourite breakfast - roti canai, since that morning the weather was good, windy and not too hot, i decide we eat it there instead of packed back. No bento lunch on this weekend, as mummy is lazy and also we had roti canai for brunch. A good excuse.



my boys prefer to eat it with their hand instead of using folk and spoon. More yummy!! Their roti canai with soya bean where i'm having roti canai with nescafe. :D




Beside than bringing the boys to Mid Valley on Sunday night, most of the time we stay at home and watch tv.


Monday morning , we brought kids to Sunway Lagoon together with 2 bil's and family and hub's sister and her hub. Brother in laws they all leave early, as i have not get ready my boys yet, so we had breakfast seperately and meet them at Sunway. When we arrive at one of the coffee shop beside Sunway, receive call from sil saying there was a huge crowd and long queue to get into Sunway Lagoon, ask us do we still want to go or not. All the kids are happily waiting for the swim and for not disappoint them we said ok, brother in law they queue to get the ticket while me and hub and two boys had our breakfast. After we had finish our breakfast, park our car, and go to the entrance we saw this .........................



people moutain people sea... first time i see such a big crowd at Sunway Lagoon!!!

Althought i did go to Sunway during peak/PH, i don't think is that bad, this time is "real bad crowd"!





Brother in law they queue for nearly two hours to get the tickets!!! While bil they are queueing for the tickets, some of us look after the 8 kids!!! Too many people we scared the kids get lost! It's like kindy teachers bringing the kids for the outing, so funny! Finally got our "tag", I think Sunway implement a new "tag" system, now we are wearing a "plastic watch" instead of those plastic paper stripe on our hands! Each tag need to put RM10 as deposit and the money can be refunable and if we lost the "tag" we need to paid RM50 for each tag!!!

Finally get everyone in, place our bags in the locker and kids just can't wait to get into the water. Everywhere we see is people people people and a lot kids!!!! We have to monitor the 8 kids, that's why we adults not enjoy much, most is for kids, we run after them. Cruz get warm up very fast, he already playing at the kids pool with all the slides! I run after him, while hub is looking after Fearles. We hop from kids pool to wave pool, there kids have more fun, then we hop to surfing pool!! We spent about 4-5 hours there, that is how i get a BAD SUN BURN. Till today my shoulder still bad in pain, still red like lobster, when i wear my clothes it's like all the small needles pocking my skin, that how bad it is. :( :(


Have some drink before "jump" into the water.

Fearles enjoy his ice-cream


see how much the kids enjoy the "swim"







father and sons


hard to get all the kids to look at the camera.
my boys with their cousins, except the one on the left hand little girl.

Bring the kids to shower also another challenging, lucky sil was queieng and she give the place to me and my boys first, so i don't need to queue. I have to quickly shower or shall i said just rinse the boys with clean water and myself and change them outside, it is so packed in the shower room and with wet floor, hmmm...challenging job! After everyone get shower, we went to Pet Village to see some "animals", i think this is the new one? Last year when i was there i don't remember i saw that. Another round of walking up and walking down, we all get so tired somemore have to carry the bags, but the kids are excited to see the animals, it's an interesting place too.






forgot what is this animals, they are having their "dinner"!


poney


porcupine!


maraccon??


mandarin ducks


peacock!


squirrel?


see how naughty this monkey is.


monkey and Tapir are friends!


see the stairs we have to walk down, lucky not walk up!


owl


At the check out point, with the latest stup** "tag system", we spent another an hour to just return the tag back!!!!!! All kids are making a big fuss, all of them are tired and hungry! Brother in law and hub were angry, they load a complain on this "tag system", if they want to implement this tag system and they also need to make it more convenient for the consumers, if we just wearing those plastic paper tag we can just cut it off then we can leave. Now we have to queue and take back the deposit! Unless we are really rich enough, just "ignore" the RM170 deposit!



see the crowd, no different from the time when we queue to purchase the ticket.
This is the crowd that is leaving and returning their tag and get the money refund!

After we left Sunway Lagoon, we went to Subang to have dinner. Fearles already doze off in the car, when we reach the restaurant i have to wake him up. Everyone were so so hungry, we order so so many food, *sorry no picture* if i take picture again, will @#$&^*&^$@#*&^ from all of them! hahahhahahha Kids are happily enjoy their dinner, first time Fearles and Cruz eat so much, 1.5 plate rice share in between Fearles and Cruz and later on Cruz add on some more rice! Good and happy to see them eat so much and without me nagging on them.

Last day of raya holidays, we rest at home, woke up quite late. In the evening, i thought of sending the car for car wash, but the centre not open, so i told the boys, why not they help me to wash the car, two of them happily answer me "YES"!! Here they are......


my two mini helper, of course with the help from the maid and mummy too!






Last but not least, this is the temp tattoo that the boys's daddy get for them during the Sunway Lagoon trip!! Guess who is who?

Brazil: Governor jokes about raping male minister, minister questions governor's sexuality

André Puccinelli (right), governor of Mato Grosso du Sul, obviously felt among friends when he made some questionable comments at a business luncheon yesterday.

The Governor, who has fought back against government efforts to limit the expansion of profitable sugar cane plantations in his state, was riling against Environmental Minister Carlos Minc when he made the comments.

Midamax quoted Puccinelli as saying that the Minister was "a faggot and smokes pot" (Minc is described as a government advocate for the legalization of marihuana). According to the paper, Puccinelli went further, joking that if he caught Minc running at a local athletic event, he "would catch up to him and rape him in a public plaza".

The outrage was immediate and Pucinelli has since apologized. According to Portal MS, in a statement released yesterday, he called media reports a "misunderstanding" and said that his comments were "never meant to offend the minister". Even if the comments had been made "in jest", he said, they were inappropriate and worthy of an apology.

Minc, for his part, responded today in his own unique way by calling Puccinelli to accept that there might be a bit of gayness inside him. "He should do a deeper analysis of the statement he made about rape in a public plaza, examine it, and treat the homosexuality that exists within him with better care, and perhaps accept it more reasonably" ["Ele deve fazer uma análise mais profunda da declaração dele sobre o estupro em praça pública e examinar e tratar com mais carinho o homossexualismo que existe dentro dele próprio e talvez aceitar isso com mais razoabilidade"]. That, according to today's Correio.

The very least that can be said is that the Environmental Minister is no wilting flower.
