Today is my mum's birthday but we decided to celebrate her birthday a week earlier since all of us were back in our home town last week... I've been to this particular restaurant a few times but only recently I realized that they have changed their name to 'Happily Restaurant'!!! What a nice name but do you know how they came up with the name??? The lady boss name is 'Happy' and coincidently her surname is 'Lee'... Viola, 'Happily' shall be the name of the restaurant!!! Okay I just made that up and is purely my assumption!!!

It is customary for us to order a plate of 'Longevity Noodles' when we celebrate someone's birthday in a 'Chinese' restaurant...

'Honey glaze pork ribs' that tasted quite nice...

This was my favourite dish of the day... The chicken is very crispy yet the meat is tender and juicy!!!

Looks burned but tasted really good!!!

My least favourite dish of the day... Too bland for my liking...

Overall Rating - 3/5

Cake of the day... All of us were wondering what they put in the chocolate coating as the coating is super sticky!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM!!!

I admit that I'm kinda lazy to do household chores... Nobody likes doing it!!! But I don't know what happen to me lately cause I find doing household chores addictive!!! Nowadays I don't wait till my darling grumbles and nag before I start moving my butt... I do it automatically now!!! Surprise??? Me too...

Whenever I see our house clean and tidy, it really brings joy and put a smile on my face... Last two weeks, we decided to some spring cleaning to welcome a brand new year... The first thing we did was to sort out all the magazines... I buy at least 2 to 3 magazines a month and this applies to my darling as well... Sometimes the quantity is way more than that... And the best part is, I don't sell or throw away the old magazines that I had... Recently, my darling stopped buying magazines as those at home is driving her up the wall!!! She decided to sell off all her magazines and she even tried persuading me to do the same!!! Obviously she fail at persuading... But I did sell off some of the old magazines eventually...

The picture above show just a small part of our magazines collection... I sold a total of more than 200kg of magazines!!! And what I get in return??? RM42.80!!! Not bad huh...

I don't have any pictures left for my 'Project FrankenBenz' so I decided to steal some from my buddy!!! Here's my 'FrankenBenz' in her full glory!!! I know you can't see clearly from these pics but currently 'FrankenBenz' is wearing a replica 'AMG Version 2' bodykit... The bodykit comprises of front and rear bumper, side skirt and a duck tail spoiler... Even though this is a replica unit, the attention to detail is just awesome...

Choosing a bodykit for 'FrankenBenz' is not something easy... I've consider a few and ended up with this... 'AMG Version 2' bodykit is my first choice so I'm not surprise that I went with this... I'm also considering 'AMG Version 3' and also 'Wald V4'... Since both 'AMG Version 3' and 'Wald V4' are design for 'Masterpiece' version of 'W124', I decided not to install these to my 'FrankenBenz' as it is not the newer 'Masterpiece' version... I personally like the 'Wald V4' a lot!!!

As you can see, beside 'FrankenBenz' there is another 'W124'... Don't let the look fool you!!! This is a 'pan chu sek lou fu' car!!! But you won't recognise the car now as it has undergone some drastic change...

'AMG' duck tail spoiler which is not really visible from this pic... Will try to snap some when my car is clean as it is super duper dirty nowadays!!! Really don't have the time to keep it clean... Although I've just painted my car, the amount of swirl on the paint is unbelievable!!! Luckily this can be rectify fairly quickly...

Introducing 'Meguir's DA Microfiber Correction System'!!! With these, you can have swirl free ride almost instantly... I'm very satisfied with the outcome and how I wish my car shine like this everyday!!! If you have the same problem please consult 'Goodwell Car Detailer'!!! I'm very sure they can help you...

To be continue...

Out of the four 'Mission Impossible' instalment, I've only watched the first and the last... Since I didn't watch the second and the third, I can't tell you whether there is any continuation on the storyline... But I suspect there are some connection in between... Fret not as I will definitely watch the second and the third one real soon in order to understand the whole storyline...

As for 'Ghost Protocol', I find it really interesting (one of the reason that makes me wanna watch the second and the third instalment!!!)... It is one helluva show... In fact I'm not surprise looking at all the good reviews this movie is getting... So definitely a thumbs up for me and well worth your monies!!! What a good way to start year 2012!!! Next shall be 'Sherlock Holmes - A Game of Shadows'!!!

'UNESCO' (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) 'United Buddy Bears' were on display at the 'Pavilion'!!! Faster head over before you miss the golden opportunity to snap a few photos... I can tell you that those bears on display were just plain awesome!!!

So what is this 'United Buddy Bears'??? According to 'Wiki', this is an international art exhibition organize by 'UNESCO' to promote tolerance, international understanding and the great concept of different nations and cultures living in peace and harmony...

Hmm how come the bull is riding on the girl??? It should have been the other way round right??? Nah, I'm not an artist so I'm not in the position to criticize!!! Nevertheless, I really like this 'Buddy Bears' as it is really colourful!!!

One of the most simple bear around...

One that really caught my attention!!!

Yeah 'Malaysia' on display as well!!!

I don't have to tell you which country is this bear representing...

A grim reaper on the bear???

'Albert Einstein' on a different type of bear...

Well said... Can someone please convey this message to our government???

I'm going to end my blog this year with this blog post... Nothing special about this blog post... Just that I find it appropriate to just say goodbye to year 2011... Year 2011 mark some high and low for me personally... But frankly speaking I have more low compare to high... So hopefully in the coming year, I have a more pleasant and smoother year!!! Really looking forward to it...

GOODBYE 2011!!!

I WISH ALL MY READERS A VERY

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

My iPad2 is officially running on iOS5.0.1!!! Frankly speaking, I didn't have the intention to update... Is more like being force to... Blame my itchy finger because I kept installing apps for my iPad2 and it decided to crash on me... I don't really know which apps that I've installed that causes me sleepless night... No matter what I do, my iPad2 still crashes and before I jailbreak my iPad2 I didn't backup 'SHSH blob' for iOS4.3.3 so I'm out of luck to restore it back to iOS4.3.3... Without iOS4.3.3, there is no way for me to jailbreak my iPad2!!! No jailbreak = BORING!!!

I know there are a lot of people who are against jailbreaking but I'm definitely not one of them... Free apps aside, what I really like about jailbreaking is the ability to transform my iPad2 into something else... Just look at the picture above and you know what I mean... No more boring looking icons and lots of enhancement that I can make... So guess I need to kiss jailbreak goodbye for the time being... Hopefully someone manage to come out with a jailbreak for iOS5.0.1 for A5 base devices...

On a side note, after playing with iOS5.0.1, I'm really liking what 'Apple' did to it... Definitely much better compare to iOS4.xx...

First of all, I would like to clarify about the name of this restaurant... Frankly speaking I don't really know what is the name but for us 'Batu Pahatian', we just call it 'Yong Chi' (mandarin for swimming pool) because this particular restaurant is located next to a public swimming pool... They are famous for their steamboat but they do have normal dishes as well... So if you're not a fan of steamboat just like me, you're in luck!!!

Looking at the dish above, most will know that we are celebrating someone's birthday... The star is my one and only grandma!!!

I don't quite fancy this restaurant as I think that it is overrated... But after sampling the food served on that day, I'm convinced that they can cook... The food were really delicious!!!
