A cute video before we have our long holiday :)
If your are under 12 please don't watch, if you watched please don't ask your mum what they are doing or tells your mum you watched from my blog. :P
Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri to all my Muslim members friends and Happy Holiday.
Woots! Just catched Final Destination 5 this evening. The movie is "SIR RAM" (seram) lol!
As usual, someone got a vision that a freak accident is gonna happened and they survived/cheated the death. Then they all have to face death although they've survived. Yeah! It's just the same as the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th sequel of Final Destination.
The only reason people would like to watch this movie although the story are the same is to witness the un-explainable freak incidents and can join the pains virtually. Am'I right? Do leave your comments ya.
This time is about a suspension-bridge collapsed and 5 survived and the last part is actually linked to the 1st sequel about the plane crash.
Rate 7.5/10 Not bad to exercise your heart. This movie tells accident happened and life are short. Go and get some drugs lol! Joking! Enjoy your life to the fullness and cherish your friends, family and loved one k?
Watch the movie trailer below;

As you can see the train station is still operating and I don't know why some blog said it has stopped operation and no trains will pass by.
Say cheeese!
We walk walk on the train rails and snap snap picture. See! So nice Mich the background. Hahahah!
I didn't miss the chance to plank yo!
My 3rd plank in Taiwan after Martyrs' Shine & Yehliu Geopark.

We bought our Sky Lantern and it's RED, this gonna bring us ONG! HUAT AHHH!!! Hahahha!
We wrote our wishes on it and set it free to the sky so the gods will make our wishes will come true. We all are so greedy one, filled up the entire page with wishes. Oh ya! Did you spot my blog? Wonder the person who picked up this lantern would visit my blog or follow me on twitter?
There are a lot souvenirs shop selling lantern near to the train rail. The near I meant is really near! -.-"
While we writing half way, we need to move our butt back inside to let the train pass.

All are ready to let it go!

That all my visit at Shifen. The day reaching to dusk, so we headed back to our homestay and had our dinner nearby there.
More photos on my facebook. More blogpost about Taiwan next! Stay tune yo!
Just got back from dinner and a movie with Buddy at Pavilion.
Celebrated an advance birthday for YY and more about it next.
Now I'm gonna have a quick and short blogpost about a movie that I've watched a while ago.
DO NOT spend your time/money to watch Spy Kids or even download. It's a stupid and kiddo movie, unless for your kids or you would like to try out the 4D Aroma Scope.
What is 4D aroma-scope?
They give you a scents card with number on it. You need to scratch the number when it appeared on the screen so it will release some scents as if you were there. er....... creative? don't get the point? stupid? you decide. I didn't try that as I've only watched the normal one.
Spy Kids is an action comedy about a retired spy who are called back into action and to bond with her new step children. She invited them along for the adventure to stop the evil Timekeeper from taking over the world.
Rate 2/10 The 2 points is given to Jessica Alba and the movie got nothing to shout about. The talking dog, the doesn't make sense evil plan by Timekeeper, the Kung Fu baby.... OMG! Please kill me.
Continue my Taiwan journey day 3. After visited Yehliu Geopark, we have went to Jiufen direct translation nine point? Correct me if I'm wrong.
Jiufen are famous with red lantern street and famous with mochi, pineapple cake, sunflower biscuits, fishballs and more unique foods.
The famous mochi. This mochi are also sold in Jusco but of course Taiwan here taste much better lor.
We did try this "Red Wine Meat Ball with Glutious Rice Skin"
It taste not bad tho but not everyone would like the taste and the outlook.
Jiufen is surrounded with superb view. Snapped this from the shop of Red Wine Meat.

Just got back from movie screening "Bridesmaids" special thanks to Nuffnang Malaysia & UIP. This movie will be on cinema on 8th of September 2011 in Malaysia.
Annie (Kristen Wiig), is a maid of honor whose life unravels as she leads her best friend, Lillian (Maya Rudolph), and a group of colorful bridesmaids (Rose Byrne, Melissa McCarthy, Wendi McLendon-Covey and Ellie Kemper) on a wild ride down the road to matrimony. Annie's life is a mess. But when she finds out her lifetime best friend is engaged, she simply must serve as Lillian's maid of honor. Though lovelorn and broke, Annie bluffs her way through the expensive and bizarre rituals. With one chance to get it perfect, she'll show Lillian and her bridesmaids just how far you'll go for someone you love. IMDb
Rate 7/10 A great sitcom with plenty humours and dirty jokes but too much conversations. A lot "great" scenes was cut you know lar Bolehland tak boleh.
Check out the movie trailer below.
Last Sunday Jerry suggested us to have breakfast at Yut Kee which located at Dang Wangi. It's just few blocks from Nuffnang's Office.
A lot people & blogger did recommend and write up food review of this restaurant. It's not a fancy restaurant that serve high class foods. Theirs specialty menu are Pork Chop, Chicken Chop, Roti Babi, Char Siew Rice and more.
When we reached there already a lot people, you need to place your name to take turn.
We've ordered Hokkien Mee
The famous Pork Chop & Chicken Chop. To be honest the pork or chicken is normal only and the sauce so so only. I wonder why so many people willing to queue for like 20-30 minutes to have theirs breakfast? drugs in it?
The Roti Babi taste a bit like tuna bread
Earlier I thought what the hell is this? This is actually the pork chop look like before sliced.
See behind.... all the people behind waiting for theirs turn.
Andy & Ronan busy makan.
Jerry & his wife
YY and me ready for Bersih 2.0 er........ ok it's history.
Address Yut Kee Restaurant
35 Jalan Dang Wangi,

Have you tried Yut Kee before? How do you think?
Watched Cowboys & Aliens last week, starred Daniel Craig & Harrison Ford.
The Old West.. where a lone cowboy leads an uprising against a terror from beyond our world. 1873. Arizona Territory. A stranger with no memory of his past stumbles into the hard desert town of Absolution. The only hint to his history is a mysterious shackle that encircles one wrist. What he discovers is that the people of Absolution don't welcome strangers, and nobody makes a move on its streets unless ordered to do so by the iron-fisted Colonel Dolarhyde (Ford). It's a town that lives in fear. But Absolution is about to experience fear it can scarcely comprehend as the desolate city is attacked by marauders from the sky. Screaming down with breathtaking velocity and blinding lights to abduct the helpless one by one, these monsters challenge everything the residents have ever known. Now, the stranger they rejected is their only hope for salvation. As this gunslinger slowly starts to remember who he is and where he's been... Written by Universal Pictures
Rate 6.5/10 The story was not bad and quite action packed but the aliens and cowboys ain't that impressive. Daniel Craig look very look as he is same age with Harrison Ford lol!
Check out the trailer of the movie
Day 3 at Taiwan, we planned to visit Yehliu Geopark.
Yehliu Park is a stratum natural landscape composed of sedimentary rocks that formed by impact of sea erosion on softer rock layers, while those hard and solid turned into sea capes.
We had a quite heavy breakfast in the morning before start our journey. We rented a 9 seaters Hyundai Startex, it's actually cheaper and cost efficient than taking public transport.
The drivers came quite early and brought us to breakfast. We had minced pork rice for breakfast. WTF right? The drivers said not much shops open that early, so no choice lor.
The journey took about 1 hour to reach to the destination. While we on our way there, we passed by a superb nice view next to sea. Stopped by there and snap photos non-stop.
posted a group photo of us with the nice background! Nice kan?
Finally we reached Yehliu Geopark.
The entrance fee to Yehliu Geopark is only 50NT$ which about RM5 +/-
everyone are excited
This is how the seascapes look like, just like smurf's houses.

Back to my Taiwan trip
After paid a visit at a Temple near Yunshan's MRT. We planned to go to Shenkeng, a place famous with Tofu and also named as Tofu street.
We took MRT from Yunshan MRT Station to Muzha MRT Station then take bus to Shenkeng.
It was raining when we reached to Muzha, it didn't stop us to continue our journey. So we bought few umbrellas.
Took 660 Zhinnan Bus Co. across the road. It take about 40 minutes to reach to Shenkeng. *try to ask the driver to notify when reached, they all are very friendly*
The rain have not stop when we reached, so we walked to a dessert house opposite Tofu Street. They got assorted taste of Tofu and cake. All are made of soya. Feel so healthy eat it :P
The famous Tofu Street, super crowded although it's still raining.
I want Sponge Bob can?
It's a Tofu galore here, stinky tofu is everywhere.
There's a long stress queue on this Stinky Tofu's stall.
We walk walk and makan makan all the way from the start and end of the road. We did try the 20NT$ tall ice cream, last time used to be 10NT$ but it never beat McDonalds Sundae Cone.
After that we head back to the bus stop and took the same bus return to Muzha MRT.
It's almost dawn when we reached to Muzha, then we took MRT head back to Jiantan for dinner and night market walk at Shilin.
Misty rain still there when we reached at Shilin, so we decided to have early dinner before the night market shopping.
While on our way there I saw Optimus Prime on the road!

Finally I've watched "The Rise of The Planet of The Apes" hmmm does anyone felt the title is abit weird or just me??
This movie actually reminder me the ancient chinese movie "Xu Em Hong" The Monkey King Hahah!
Ok! The story set in San Francisco, where a company run experiments on apes to find a medical cure for Alzheimer disease. The genetic engineering has lead to the development of intelligence in apes and the onset of a war for supremacy.
Although this is not a big movie like Marvels or DC but I found the outcome is superb. Great CGI and great storyline. It able to deliver the message of selfishness of human.
Rate 9.5/10 Feel so touched and almost cried out when he got locked up and he drew a windows that similar to home he stayed. Highly recommended to watch!
Check out the trailer of this movie
Last Thursday I've attended a special preview session of the upcoming Nokia N9 which run on MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan OS platform.
The event was held at Marmalade, Bangsar Village 2.
A bunch of bloggers was invited on the invite.
The announcement of the Nokia N9 few weeks back has actually attracted alot people attention by it's pure touch smartphone and the powerful MeeGo OS platform.
I was lucky enough to given the golden opportunities to be the among first in Malaysia to play with the Nokia N9.
Mr. Glen Cha, Head of Operative Product Management brief us more about the new Nokia N9.
Nokia N9 are summaries with 3 key principles,
Bold, all screen designI were excited to get to hold and play around the Nokia N9, although it's not the final product but I found it quite mature enough to be released to the public.
The simplicity of a swipe
One home. Three simple views
This is my personal thought on the new Nokia N9. I was impressed with the smoothness of the MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan UI, it's fluided and responsive (thanks to it's powerful 1Ghz ARM Cortex-A8 OMAP processor and large 1GB RAM). The simple gesture "Swipe" is simply ingenious, it's very easy to understand and use. It's a total new easy and straight forward UI to use.
It has three recognisable home views arranged in a carousel (360° degree)
Application - to start tasks quickly
Open Application - to see all the running apps and multitasking between apps.
Events - to stay connected with people, new and events in one view (Facebook, Feed, Twitter and etc)
The hardware and software were jointly designed together seamlessly.
Let's continue on the hardware.
