It was indeed a long day when reached home and  I can't wait to have my shower and turn on the air-cond to wind down. And, don''t forget to exercise regularly, have a medical checkup when it's due and keep our blood pressure down. :)

Yours truly and my little princess collecting the prize from Zenxin's rep.

I dunno why I felt I must get this device even before it is launched. Maybe it's the portable 8" form factor as well as the stylus. I always wanted to write on my ipad but then, the rounded kinda stylus doesn't really write well. Then, the Samsung Galaxy Note phablets seems too 'small' for scribbling while I think the note 10.1 was too big, same as my ipad. Thus, I think this device fits me well. I can carry it to work and surf on the bus as it is not that heavy and as someone who likes to scribble, taking notes and as a visual person who likes to draw diagrams to understand logics , I decided to get it. I got the wifi version at S$588 with a free memory card at 16Gb and a cover. So far so good, it's fast and smooth. Btw, this is not a paid post from Samsung, though I wish to earn some money too!

OK, that's my new toy to play with while my ipad was 'confiscated' long ago by my kids. :(

Appetizer - salad

Love this one ... big head prawn in oyster sauce. Each one of us get a plate.

The dish of the day  - their famous chilli crabs

Dessert - Rockmelon sago

There was a plate of noodles and sotong which I didn't capture (shy...shy...hahaha). Again, it was a good time bonding with friends  and I will continue to do it. Well, maybe let's meet up with fellow bloggers in KL and Sarawak ? How about that ? :)

One of my friends wrote in his facebook that he used to run to keep fit and shed the extra fat away but however now, he run to melt the negative and emotional feelings away. While I was jogging last week in the gym, suddenly this statement dawned upon me as I was feeling kinda down then too and jogging is really a good way to melt these negative feelings away. I felt a little better after the jog and it's true indeed the run makes me felt good.



Thus, whenever you don't feel good, try some exercise. Just go for a run, a swim or cycle. It will certainly makes you feel better.

A refreshing cup of americano

Salmon Steak...love the gravy

I had a pleasant Sunday service in my church today. Somehow I felt good after the church service. Maybe its due to prayers by the Methodist Bishop of Malaysia where my church invited him to preach as well as conducting the Holy Communion service. Somehow this reminded me of what I read in Norman Vincent Peale's (author of The power of positive thinking. I recalled he wrote in one of his books that even you don't listen to the sermon but by attending church will makes you feel good. I was not very focus on the sermon all the time ( which is normal ...hahaha) though I understand the gist of it. However, I felt really good after it, especially after I woke up from a nap in the afternoon,

Meanwhile, I had a fabulous dinner at Yew's Cafe in JB. It's been awhile since I have dined there and I ordered a Sirloin steak with herbs while my wifey ordered a fish fillet for the kids while herself had a yang chow fried rice.

I posted two weeks ago that I entered a photography contest and I even solicited some votes from my dear readers here. Well, to my delight, I came out as the winner of the photography contest with 271 likes (votes) compared to second place 145 likes and third place 111 likes. Though the prizes are not very attractive, it's a great feeling to win something. And, thanks for your votes!! :)

Strange, somehow I recalled a piece of advice from a classmates back in the 90s then. I remember he told me whenever I wanted to do something, do it wholeheartedly with 100% efforts else do not do it. We may set a lot of goals and have a lot of wish lists but somehow, if you are not interested in putting efforts to get it, chances are you will attempt it half-hardheartedly and give up. On the other hand, don't do it if you are not interested rather than being greedy in wanting this and that. What do you think ?

Btw, I had this yummy, delicious and rejuvenating beef noodles soup at Niniq bistro and bakery, JB. The soup was damn good while the beef was very tender. Dipped it in their chilli and it was really good! This should be Indonesian type of beef noodles as Niniq is famous for their Indonesian cuisines.
