A Homemaker’s Diary

If you ask me the question, it would be tea anywhere, anytime. Even at Starbucks..why? Coffee gives me headache so I have no choice and I hardly take soft drinks either except when I don’t have any other choice. Most of the time I go for mineral water or hot green tea.

I am not health conscious, it’s just that too much carbonated drinks make my throat sore.

So when I’m out for a break, and there is only choice between coffee or tea, I will go for tea, even if it means some herbal tea like this.

One thing I have to mention in my blog is that for the second time in this month, my housing area was struck (again!!) with massive black out.

We were having dinner at the restaurant when the whole shophouses area, the housing area in front of the main road and the 3 adjacent housing areas of my house received the black out fate for Monday night. Luckily I almost finished eating..Damn! Just as I plan to relax and watch the sitcoms.

I don’t know what is wrong with the power supply. A call was made to TNB call center and the CS said something went wrong with the power supply for this area. Hubby said maybe the mall at Jusco has been taking a toll on the main electricity supply for this whole area and made us all suffer in heat and mosquitoes attack.

I hope next week there will be no more black out incident otherwise I will write email to TV3 and the Star to air my concern..huhu!

We went out on Sunday to look for stuffs – both computer and crafts related. I can say the trip was worthwhile as I got what I need for the July/August orders.

After that we went to Low Yatt to look for network cable and stopped at Teppanyaki at their lower ground level for dinner. I was so tempted to buy the new affordable Lenovo notebook but I think I will save that for next trip..hehe!

The picture above was taken in May when we headed there for some computer gadgets spree. So this time I thought I can always use the old picture since the place was still the same, except now they have some Banglas as their new waiters..

It makes me I wonder what happen to all young people of Malaysia since we have to take all these foreigners to work in all kind of industries. So next time you don’t have a job, just don’t complain since you think all these waiting tables pay peanuts, in a way it might be compared to executive salary but still it’s legit money. Getting such amount would be much better than staying at home, doing nothing yet waiting for money to fall from the sky, right!

Enough said, have fun enjoying the teppanyaki picture. I had my usual set of beef teppanyaki. It was good..nyum nyum!

As a matter of fact, I have typed the entry for this title on Thursday (to be exact early Friday morning around 4am) when my Streamyx connection really went crazy and I could not save the drafts..I hate that when such things happen.

I even waited for another hour hoping that I could save the entry and read a quarter of Snow Flower and the Secret Fan while waiting but still nothing could be done. So I went to sleep in frustration.

So here I am on Saturday trying to write about Transformers again..haha! We went to watch the movie at the Summit USJ right after Hubby came back from work. Even when we arrived there before 8, the line at the counter was already long. We hoped that the THX hall was still available and we got the seats right in front of the screen for 9:15pm.

Fortunately the sound systems in the THX hall compensated the almost dizzy feelings I got while watching the movie because the picture became very big and blur (for me) while the big robots were fighting. Now I know that we have to be careful when selling items on eBay as you might never know that Decepticons will come after you…haha! Hopefully nobody is crazy enough to dig their remains from the abyss. Pity the Optimus Prime gang too because they no longer could create a new life since the Cube was gone forever..huhu!

Oh, the picture above was taken last week when we went to Sunway to watch Die Hard 4.0. Just to share some pictures of the Transformers movie.

For those who wonder what happened to me for the past few days, well here I am updating my life story..haha!

From Friday I was down with fever and flu. I have not been sick since March so this time it was really terrible. Maybe because the virus was imported from KL since I went to the city on Tuesday (or was it Wednesday..can’t remember). I gulped down the leftover medicine in hope that the fever will be gone by Saturday but instead it didn’t. Hubby took me to the clinic to get new medicine and I slept the whole Saturday till 8pm. I woke up starving and we went to Deli France because I wanted to eat their Chicken Delight. I was feeling a little better after the dinner and we decided to go on with our initial plan to watch Die Hard 4.0 at Sunway TGV.

So we went to Sunway waiting for the 11:45pm show. The movie was great as it involved all the IT stuffs, hacker attack on US govt, great gadgets etc which some did not make any sense especially when John Mc Clane managed to survive while being bombed by F35 and trapped within the tumbling bridge..huhu! And of course to be able to be online while the whole nation power grid was down..( I wonder what kind of generator would be able to do that..huhu)

Sunday I was getting worse and slept the whole day. Monday I decided to go to another clinic because I was scared that it might be dengue fever. I even went to the dentist to get treatment for my tooth which might be another reason for the prolonged fever. Luckily by Monday evening I was feeling much better.

Life went on as usual on Tuesday except that the power outage struck at our housing area just as we came back from groceries shopping at Jusco. Damn TNB! Fortunately enough, after hours of waiting to speak to TNB Call Centre, the power came back around 11pm. I went down to cook dinner because I was yearning to have some home made food. Those KFC could not make do for my food yearning..hehe! I watched Prison Break and Bones and slept after 2:30am.

So here I am on Wednesday, I decided that I have to update this blog. I have more new pictures for next entries but my camera is still downstairs in my handbag. Will update later with few pictures from the Sunway TGV trip. Hopefully this week I would be able to watch Transformers..haha!
