Malaysia and the first five letters

Where is your dignity and pride?
Does your religion teach you to terima duit rasuah?
You still have guts to even ask for it.

And those buggers are from JPJ.
We know what kind of people work in JPJ.
And we also know what kind of people always ask for duit kopi on the road.

Shame on you, idiots!

Little things in life...

When you are given a lemon, make a lemonade! Why frown over the sour fruit that you can't eat? Squeeze the lemon, then add some sugar and ice to make a refreshing drink for yourself!

Many times, when life gets complicated and we are occupied with stuff that we view it as burden, we tend to overlook the simple things in life that once brought joy to us. Life become stereotyped.

Why make life so complicated? Let me quote from Message from God (a Facebook application):

On this day, God wants you to know...
... that when you come to a wall, you can either climb it, or you can simply walk around until you find a door. Don't make life so hard, - look for the doors!

Remember the 'Tikam' machine that you used put coins in, hoping you get the toy you wanted? Recently, there were 2 older kids who went to play 'tikam' again. On the first day, they couldn't get the toy they wanted.

They were slightly disappointed but they did not give up. On second day, they 'tikam' again, hoping to get the Lilo and Mickey. Guess what, they did not get Mickey. But they got Lilo and Pooh instead!!!



Aren't they cute?


See, life is full of surprises. As long as you keep trying and do not lose hope, you will get what you want. Even if you do not get exactly what you want, sometimes what you got will give you more happiness and satisfaction than you know.

My Elephant Section 17, PJ (Thai Food)

You know at some days you just crave for one kind of food. For us, it was Thai tomyam. Many have blogged about My Elephant at Section 17, PJ, but I have yet to try it. So since we were craving for tomyam, our instinct told us to give the place a try.

My Elephant is kinda hidden, so if you are not familiar with Section 17, you might wanna googlemap/GPS yourself there. The website provides menu and map, check it out!

We had Som Tam Malakor (Hand-pounded Green Papaya with Dried Prawns & Peanuts) and Tomyam Seafood. Although the place is located near the flats, the price of food is not considered cheap (but cheaper than Sri Ayutthya). I can imagine their profit margin is quite high.





I loved the tomyam soup and the salad. However, squids were not very fresh. Their quality isn't that consistent. And as if to compensate for the high calorie food, you will be served with brown rice which is RM3/person! So, even if u can't finish the whole plate of rice that they served u, bring the balance back to feed your dog and make your dog slight healthier for once.
