Two days ago, I called Dell, “I’ve got some problems with my USB ports.”
Although they offered to get it fixed yesterday, I postponed the repair till today.
So today, the technician got to my house and had my laptop repaired. He changed my whole mainboard… and with it, a better graphics card built in…
And WOW, my graphics is now better than ever. My iTunes cover flow loads faster, Photoshop is now better with less graphics lag…
I’m so happy!!! Thanks Dell… You made my Dell perfect… :)
It was a plan… about to fail when we ended up with no transport to Tenji… then after a bit of reference to Google Map and estimation of taxi charges, we made the decision to go there…
Here we go, TENJI…
Roland got us reservations for Tenji some time ago… initially for 8 person, but ended up 4 only because two of them are sick… and the other 2, are their friends… so… we went there on our own…
At 11.40am sharp, we feasted on the food…
The ‘free flow’ of raw oysters…
The sushi…
BBQ Station with Tempura served behind…
The fruits and drinks station…
The good thing about this restaurant is that you can order freshly cooked and served food… they will deliver it to you…
My ice-kacang with two scoops of Häagen-Dazs vanilla ice-cream on top… The ice-cream was smooth and fabulous!
Nate getting some clams into his plate…
Greg… their half-boiled eggs are fantastic… so is the toufu at the back…
Wedges… no cheese only… T_T
More ice-creams…
They have a wide range of desserts and you’re going to be spoilt of choices… I didn’t photograph any cakes…
The must have group photo…
Nate getting HIGH over his wet towel… haha
I must say, they serve quite a lot of food and for a vegetarian like me, I was spoilt of choices too… They had grilled mushrooms, vegetable sushi, egg-rolled sushi, soba, asparagus soup, bread, potato, fruits and many other choices to choose from…
Some may find that eating only those are ‘not worth it’… but for me, it doesn’t matter, as I’m around with friends who really care for each other…
Anyway, the food was great, so was the drinks. I would grade it a 3.8 / 5.0 mark…
So if you’re interested, you can take a cab all the way to SohoKL to dine at Tenji, the cab would cost about RM 8 for 4 from Genting Klang. But make sure you know the way there because some taxi drivers don’t know the way there! haha…
So… I guess you had one of the best weddings Birthday ever…!!!
Let’s not waste anymore time and head over to the picture gallery…
We had a fantastic Oreo Cheese Cake for RQ…
Time to blow the candles!!!
The Tradition – Bite the candle out of the cake… and risk your face filled with creams… haha
Getting the greeting card written…
Presents!!! And yeah, the Optimus Prime was for him…
Another Gift from his beloved…
The group of us…
The four guys in the house…
Vivian got so *HIGH* and started jumping…!!! haha
Till then… HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY to Ren Quan… May all your birthday wishes and dreams come true!!!
So what is the 10 days’ craziness is all about??? Here’s the photo…
Here’s the big picture of what it is all about…
Macro shots create some kind of illusion some of the times… and when you work on it, it’ll come out interestingly. And if you have a bit of story telling, it would be marvellous!
So… OPTIMUS! ROLL OUT!!!
By the way, this is Optimus Prime from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, the Leader Class…
So here is the last clue of all…
With this very very last clue… I’m sure you know what it is already… haha… you’re welcome to reveal the results here in my blog.. haha
People…
PLEASE DO NOT PROCEED ANY FURTHER IF YOU FIND THAT THE FOLLOWING PHOTOS ARE GROSSING YOU OUT!
THIS IS TO AVOID YOU VOMITING IN FRONT OF YOUR PC, JUST LIKE HOW OUR LECTURER MADE US FELT SO UNEASE WHEN WE SAW THE PHOTOS…
This was what happened today… Dr. Haresh was very nice to share all his photo collections on roundworms… He said that these looked like ‘Mee Goreng’ (Fried Noodles)…
These are some of the photos… please proceed with caution!!! Don’t say that I didn’t warn you…
This is a roundworm… caused by faecal-oral passage via hands…
This is the ‘mee goreng’ he described to us…
The route of infection as follows:
Consumed eggs –> hatch in intestine –> larvae penetrate gut –> travel through liver to lungs –> up the bronchi and trachea –> and swallowed again and stay in the intestines…
Because in some cases, the worms are already so big, they cannot be swallowed easily… instead, the come out like this…
And here is a photo of them in your intestine… *You are encouraged to enlarge to look at the worms in details…*
Treatment? Use Mebendazole and Pyrantel… And almost immediately after use… You’ll see something like this…
GROSS RIGHT?!
Before Roland and I left the lecture hall, I actually joked to Dr. Haresh…
Me: Dr. Haresh, had your lunch already?
Dr.: No, not yet.
Me: Want to join us?
Dr:…
Me: We’re having noodles with extra taugheh (bean sprouts)…
Dr.: Yer… you so cruel la…
Hahaha…… by the way, our beloved Dr. Haresh is a vegetarian...
Here’s a recap of all the photos published for the guessing game… 
So… any idea what this is all about yet?? Still need more help? Here’s another clue….
I think this clue 9 helps a lot in decision making process… haha
All the best to everyone… You’ll get the answer in Clue 10…

Be as specific as possible. And for those who know the answer, please SHUT UP! hehe... let others have the opportunity to guess, okay? Thanks.
Here’s a bit of a game for 10 days… each day, I’m going to post up a macro shot and you guys think about what it is all about…
Be creative, understand the material made, the meaning of the photo and also the details in it… hehe ;-)

As a tribute to Yasmin Ahmad, who passed away peacefully yesterday night about 11.30pm, I would be featuring this blog post about her videos. Heart warming and meaningful, these videos certainly change my perspectives about life.
Thank you Yasmin, may you rest in peace.
First off, The Funeral…
Next, Percintaan Tan Hong Ming… National Day Ad 2007 for Petronas
Chinese New Year Advertisement 2007
Another one… for 2008…
This one should be for CNY 2009…
This one is for Hari Raya 2007… Some of you may have seen this story and plot before.
Raya 2006…
Family… For Singapore’s Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports "MCYS".
There are many other short films and movies by Yasmin Ahmad that you should watch… some good ones include Sepet, Gubra, Mukhsin and others… They’re morally meaningful and I hope we all can learn something from this great Teacher.
May you rest in peace…
