Seremban Market 'Tow Kee' Hakka Mee
This spot of fine exquisite products of vermicelli offering is very well-known amongst the locals, well also pretty much anyone who loves a simple bowl of Hakka Mee, the place has its own legacy. The word on the streets is that folks as far as from Perlis came all the way down here just to a taste of a simple but ass-kicking bowl of hakka mee ;)
Located on the 1st floor of the Seremban Market, the place is usually crowded with customers. At any time of the day, the tables and plastic chairs allocated for dine-in customers are pretty much limited so there's usually a portion of the crowd will just order takeaways. I must tell ya, the effectiveness of the lady taking orders and collecting money is just crazy fast. While collecting money, she'll murmur something in Hakka and less than 2 seconds later, she'll come up with the sum which ishardly never a mistake :) There's usually a 5-10 minutes wait before the food is served but the wait is totally worth it!
Fantastic hand-pulled noodle topped with the juiciest minced pork ever! This is just pure awesome. It's extraordinary, and hakka mee at it's finest ;)
p/s : There's another 'Tow Kee' stall in Jalan Lee Kim Chiap. Tastes just as good as this :)
Anyway, Merry Christmas everyone! Cherrio ;)

seven things i want for christmas
short talk : if you're wondering how santa's iphone looks like, here's a glimpse of it :)
today has been a wonderful day. i woke up with a note literally nailed shut to my bed post with some scribbling on it that could have only came from mom with her awesome handwriting. hungry, i gave the note a glimpse while trying my very best to get my body out of the bed; its a checklist ofsomething , alot of things to do as a reward for not trying to get a job as soon as possible. =.="
so after breakfast, i worked my ass off...
1. wash the porch - checked!
2. arrange the flowerpots - checked
3. decorate the christmas tree - checked! (but something felt fairly odd with the tree, hmmmm....)
4. christmas presents for vi *cough* kajie, as she's coming back this weekend to celebrate xmas - checked!
5. do the dishes - in progress....
6. clean up the living room - good god im not capable of doing so many things in one day or i'll die off spontaneously end of story kthnxbai..
7. wash dad's car - =.="
anyway, while having a break from doing all the crap, i made a list of what i want for christmas this year. kinda like my christmas wish-list. here it goes ;
1. an all expense paid trip to vegas!
blend in with all the high rollers, celebrities and porn stars, there's nothing better than a night in vegas! and this is also how i would really love to celebrate this year's christmas; vegas style, baby! ;) plus free villa stays in ceasers palace and presidential suites in excalibur, that would be just perfect :)
2. transparency in the malaysian goverment
this christmas, i wish for the effectiveness of our goverment to be increase tremendously and also their integrity. but most importantly is the transparency of the whole system so that the rakyat have the insights of what really happened, how it happened, who made it possible etc etc not just giving press conferences telling telling us they have it under control when the truth is, they dont.
3. a brand new car!
but most probably i'll just inherit my sis's old piece of crap so there wont be a photo here :)
4. the whole family's safety and health
so that we can celebrate next year's christmas together again! and next next year's christmas! and next next next's! and next next next next....you get my drift
5. nikon d3000
i've always wanted a d3000. and shit i've been saving money for quite some time so that i can actually buy one myself but everytime when the money i saved starts to reach to a certain amount, i spent all of it on something else instead, damn! so for this year's christmas, i really want a d3000, so i can capture shots of this wonderful world like no one ever done it :)
6. an 18k gold zippo lighter
ah-hah! this is something i really wanted for a very long time. with this shit comes great responsibilities! everyone in the club's gonna come after me for a god damn light! :)
7. world peace
if its still possible, can we all give world peace one more chance? think john lennon...
iphone in the US : US$880+
iphone in malaysia : rm1500+

2,2.3 - thunderbird, shitmonkey
the day before yesterday was a weird day. i woke up believing that im in dire need of money. like loads of money instantly or i'll shit myself, hard or something like that. so i went around the house asking em' 'for real?' and the responses received were fairly disappointing...
'yea... go get yourself afucking job. i dont appreciate you rotting on my couch' , mom
'huh? like for real for real?' , me
'yer know your mom's right...i havent seen you do shit since you're back home 3 weeks ago...all you did was shit, eat, crap and poop...good god' , dad
'f...' (insert your word of the day)
pissed, i went back to the computer and did a little research on other blog ads networks since the other day i've added a new column in my blog (smug), i now have quite some extra space to spare for ads. at least by putting on more ads, i can earn more cash. god damn. anyway, my google adsense application was rejected the night before. apparently my new domain i set up 3 months ago wasnt qualified yet; all blogs originated from this region requires a blog at least 6 months old so yea i guess.
anyway, while browsing i came across some other ads network. interesting ones. like you get to set your own threshold payment before you cash out; and you can even set it at US$ 5! god damn! so without thinking at all, i signed up for all of em. like 6 different ads networks. and well, thats the story behind all the hype of the colourful, blinking neon boxes with half naked female characters yesterday. *edited* i signed up with adbrite, admarketplace, chitika, adgitize (or something like that) and guruji adguru.
so i woke up saner this morning and decided that i should, fucking tear em' off - all of it....well that decision came about after i've review how much exactly did i earned from those networks. its best to stick with one for now :)
behold -
holy zanzibar i've earned US$ 0.96 in one night! just by writing shit like this. god damn! all 4 of em generated a portion while the fifth one came out with the most, 70 god damn cents came from it.
on a totally unrelated note, i've reincarnated my old blog and written a new post. it explains alot on why i started this blog out in the first place. well it doesnt anyway. not exactly but still, shit happens. im so tired keeping a facade i have to maintain and similar shit like that. but nevermind though, im not ranting here so i dont have to sound all emo and shit -plus there's something i need to clarify about the title of my new old blog. its called K'EL RACH-ISM
but why? -pronounce it clearly, but swiftly...
good observatory skills is absolutely needed, i'd say....
spicy chicken mcdeluxe! haha this is for you ____ (guess guess)

awake on my airplane. awake on my airplane
some time during last year's fall, i started out blogging. back then, i didnt care - about anything/everything; how's my traffic? how many visits i generate per day? how much do i earn weekly? etc etc simply put, i had loads of fun blogging back then. i'll just tap on the keyboard what i feel like spilling out, dont give a damn of who's reading, or if there's anyone at all. random posts were nailed. everything, relevant or not, i'll just post it up just for the fun of it. i remember the main reason why i started this blog - so 20 years from now i'll have the chance to witness it myself how i screwed up everything's wonderful :)
i just wanna blog with the same old feeling again.....freely, goddamnit!

peculiarism
after months and months of getting prepared - browsing through the web for infos, getting advise from experts, friends, family members etc, im convinced that im now ready for it- im getting a pet snake soon.
a few months back, before i even propose this to anybody, i've been receiving objections of all kind from all parties already. i know i know all their arguments are sound. it makes perfect sense -who the hell keeps a snake as pet? what if it escapes? worse still, what if it bites you? isnt it dangerous? hello, people die from snakebites - arent you afraid? etc etc. concerns were thrown as desperate attempts to stop me from getting a pet snake. then there's the issue of legality. doesnt you need a license for that? well the legality of keeping a snake isnt really an issue here since im not getting a venomous one - from what i know, the one im getting (bronzeback) is totally harmless - theres absolutely no need for any paperworks for all the matter.
then there's the concern whether i can find time for it. well, it dont need my time. snakes mind their own business playing dead, shredding skins and playing hide and seek with soon-to-be-meal mice.
i'd always wanted a pet. not something that needs loads of attention - i dont have the necessity capabilities to give love every now and then. can i? no i dont think so. dogs are overrated. i've seen how they works - blow a whistle and here they come. unlike cats, you blow a whistle, they stop, stare at you, thinks and decides whether to come at all. but cat, like dogs are needs loads of attention - all the can get - you'll need to pat them from time to time and seriously, i cant be involve in anything like that anymore. plus, maintenance doesnt come easy. they cost alot - food, neutering, injections, healthcare etc etc
so im getting a snake instead. they are soo much easier to take care. and hell they dont make sounds at night, they dont make a mess and you only feed them once/twice a week. plus you dont need to spend much on their place to stay - just a tank with some branches will do. all this, i think i'll manage
however though, the reason i picked snake is because of their peculiarism. they're obsessed with anything/everything. i've seen snakes do awesome shit just to get attention like constricting broken branches, eat leaves and shit in the water dish. its amazing. dogs, on the other hand, possessed a retardedly low sense of peculiarism. there was once i dropped my wallet on the floor in the living room when i was too busy taking my sock off my feet while the other hand was supporting my body clutching the door knob, pumpkin leaped off the sofa and took a sniff at my wallet but only for a moment - not more than two seconds before jumped back to the sofa. well unlike snakes, if you drop something so small - like a rubber band inside their tank, they'll come immediately and after observing it for more than a hour or so -decided that it isnt a threat to itself, it will try to constrict it only to find it unable to do so.
and for that matter, i am utterly sure that im ready for it. i can and will, try my best to make one happy for the years to come, for at least another 20 years or so - they can live up to 20 years - well indefinitely i hope not, both in the interest of the poor thing and me
i know, peculiarism is a funny thing
