So You Think You Can Dance

Monday, May 28th, 2007

2 weeks ago, I went to Ruums for the live telecast of “So You Think You Can Dance” competition.

This is how the stage looks like in real life.. taken with my Wide of course.

First couple to appear on stage…

All dancers have to face the judges and hear their critics after their performances.

eh? different show? hehe

3rd group… they did some Malaysian Contemporary dance..

a loooot more pics coming up… which dancer do u support?

are you a super fan like her?

That’s Felicia cheering for her boyfriend Dennis.

I wanna be a Lala

Saturday, May 26th, 2007

***Photos below were taken using Jen’s camera and some were scanned by Rames***

———-

Remember the Smurfs theme song? It goes something like this.. “la la la la la la.. sing a happy song…”

or maybe that’s too old for you…

then do u remember the song by Ashlee Simpson “i wanna be a lala! in the kitchen on the floor~~”

and recently, Rihanna had a song which is similar to the above 2.. the song went something like this ” la la la la la la la la la la la (oh) Cause He’s got me singing that la la la ”

they all have “lalala” in them. I think they were inspired by the people you see everyday in Sg.Wang shopping center.

So one day, we went there and tried to fit in.

Most of the people in Sg. Wang like to take pictures using those japanese photo machines.. we wanna do it too. So I got my accessories ready.

Black earrings(Jen’s fingernail), super big black sunglasses(borrowed from Rames) and of course.. my phone.

ok lets go and squeeze ourselves in those small photo machines!

TIPS: you don need to pay $$$ for those tiny tiled pics.. just bring your own camera and snap away using their background curtains!

oh if you have paid, just pose in front of their build in camera and spotlights and you will get this:

quite nice actually… the lights make everyone look good in the pictures.

then you will have to make a very important decision.

…

what effects to add? put stars ah? put love love bling bling ching ching chang chang?

what text to put? i lap you? friends forever?

i would say… dont put. cos the effects will block your faces and make the photos look noob.

but if you really want… the come back home and put in by yourselves lor

jeng jeng jeng! I took the LaLa Pose 3 photo and added those noob effects in using photoshop. same oni. lol

ok HOW TO BE A LALA tutorial ends here.

The one and only photo I managed to take last night.

It was nearly 1am when everyone left… the 3 of us were still there.. doing nothing. Oh the 3 Js were in red

Anyone here likes claypot chicken rice?

If im not mistaken.. this shop in Pudu is quite famous for their claypot rice.

So I went there for dinner one day… to cuba try test

The chicken rice tasted good. price.. about rm5 i think..

This one is famous in Hongkong. Chinese call it “Lap Mei Farn”. Price? mahal gila.. Small one is RM15. Big is RM30

Wanna try? come lets go :þ

HAHAHA just back from Pirates 3 screening. All I can say is that… it is not as good as expected… and part 2 was A LOT better.. and Chow Yuen Fatt died in the midle of the movie. ahha ok curse me for the spoiler.

2 weeks ago I met up with some buddies who came down from Penang.

Koolz on my right n Tungz on my left. They brought me around for makan makan when I was in Penang.. so it was my turn to return the favor…

ok enough about that…

after meeting.. we walked around midvalley and stopped at the centre court for a while for the fashion show.

That was the time when I tested my wide lens

some might ask… actually.. how much wider it is then your normal lens?

the 18mm is what we normally have.. the kitlens that comes with the camera.. or like mine.. the 18-200mm which i bought separately.

the second photo.. was taken using my wide lens at 11mm. FUAH! now that’s wide.

and if you ask.. how TALL is WIDE if u take fotos vertically?

erm.. from the floor to the roof lor.. ahahaha

oh nearly forgot… fashion show must show a bit models..

i cincaily took these

that’s Jeff doing his thing. lol he was so happy when i sent him the foto. “damn nice la this pic” he said.

ok la finish bye

Lucky Restaurant

Sunday, May 20th, 2007

So after visiting Eagle Square… we went for dinner at this Lucky Restaurant located few lots away from Underwater World.

Most of the shops along the road from my hotel to the other end of the island look like this.

ok let’s see what we ordered

This one tasted like an ordinary dish. Nothing special.

The supervisor recommended claypot tofu… but when it was served… we felt weird.. cos they didnt use claypot.

their signature dish. The prawns had this lime sour taste and also quite spicy.. a bit like thai style

wah this one looked normal.. but i tell u.. damn nice can! ahahha we finished this one in like 5 minutes

we ordered this cos we havent tried sour plum chicken before… but turned out… like lemon chicken lor.. ahaha

we paid RM78 for all these. Worth? No worth?

I recommend this place if you happen to be in Langkawi cos its cheap and the food were good.

Eagle Square

Friday, May 18th, 2007

back to Langkawi…

after Island hopping.. we went backto hotel to clean up and got ready for our next adventure.

We went to this park… Legend Park or something.. forgot the name

we came here to see the big eagle statue but found out it was across the lake. so we gave up searching for it

this park has got the weirdest trees ever. like a fantasy land

Look at the treessssssss… Wiiiiide Lens

I like pathways with vanishing points

Then we went to Langkawi Fair, a shopping mall nearby … according to map, its the biggest shopping center in the whole island… but it turned out to be quite bad. wasnt impressed at all.

so after that.. we had a drink and went back to hotel to rest

took this at the hotel carpark. We rented this car for 2.5 days.
