Nikon D90 + Vertical Grip (MB-D80)

I always like to pamper myself with something whenever i am feeling very down, such as go for travel, go for food (especially steamboat), go for body massage, or buy things for myself...etc.

Of course try to look at my budget too lah...always go for minimum costing. As we all know, time are bad.

Today, i have brought myself the vertical grip for my camera. I always wanted it so badly. It is so convenient, not only the camera body look more bold...there will also increase in battery usage time. Not to say, it will be great to hold the camera in vertical to shoot portrait photo.

P/S: today i am very down. Thinking too much and worrying too much about my future, as well as the issues brought up by my family.

Facebook Activated ....very Power!!

Some time back... people was all talking about the Facebook. i never have time to bother what is it. till one day, someone (really forgot who) tells me... "hey! i have registered the Facebook for you, and the password is xxxxxx. go and login and keep in touch with us lah." i m so blurred... what for?? no time lah... and the interface for Facebook are so messy and complex....just tooo many features.

after several days, i just simply login and found many people have connected with me, and many of requests too. wow!! this is GREAT!!

althought there are so many features in the Facebook, but personally i only love this feature, the rest i never want to bother it lah.

Facebook have done a great tool for us. So for whoever that have not add me, do add me
mail2hcyeong@yahoo.com

many familiar faces to found... hehehe.... all Uncles and Aunties already.

Noon Karaoke @ Neway, 1Utama

it has been a long while that i have not to Karaoke. Singing is one of my hobbies. I love singing very very much.

it is too bad that i can't sing as good as before. i really feel sad about it.

but i can be a good judge on listening to singing. i can give quality comments on songs & singing.

if you all don't mind a lousy singer to accompany you for karaoke, do phone me :)

Dinner @ Garden Lifestyle Store & Cafe, 1Utama

Garden Lifestyle Store & Cafe, what a comfy name for a dining place. every corner and space are decor with green plantation, mini bushes, and flowers. totally a garden feel, but indoor.

they placed a ivory-colored baby grand piano at the main entrance, and easy tune is played continuous by a beautiful pianoist. is such a nice place to relax after a long day of busy, stressful work.

i was in the Asiasoft Gamefest the whole day since 10am, and this is absolutely the right place for my collegues and me to rest our feet and pamper our stomach.

above: soda-rose drink / soda-mint drink. highly recommended by the waitress.

above: wild-mushroom soup. the openning before the course.

above: braised lamp shank with ratatouille.

above: cabbonara spag-ti... mama-mia.

above: forgot the name.... but it's really delicious.

will sure visit again this dining place.

i guaranteed... NO REGRET.

anyway...i m still here, in front of the stage, prepared my camera....and writing this blog with my mobile phone while waiting for her.

Everyone of us start looking for the switch in the dark. we open every cabinets and look inside, we look behind doors, we look for it on every corners... but failed.

Korean BBQ @ SS2

is was another hectic day. we knowing that we will be having a hard-week soon, so after working we planned and headed to this Korean BBQ restaurant to pamper our taste bud. personally, nothing beats a great meal.

above: hock & joyce, they are going to gain-weight soon by f0llowing me for dinner almost every day now.

above: brian, enjoying the korean "happy-meal"... hahaha (what so funny??)

above: damien law & jie ai, both of them are always like our tai-kor and tai-ka-jie.

above: bbq-pork, ultra-thin slices, marinated with some secret-recipe korean sauce. simply wonderful!! delicious & jiucy.

above: ai yo yo!! my fellow friends, they never have enough of beer. but this is something unusual... the korean-rice-beer. quite nice. (expensive oh, RM25.00 per small bottle)

above: for me, always the classic drink - the green tea. (free flow... hehehe)

after this great meal, we have jokes and chat. very enjoying. the boss is so genereous, and serve us a korean style omelette (friend eggs) personally for FREE. maybe is because we are making too much of noise, and he wanted us to leave early. hahaha!!!

we after that headed to Swensen (opposite the road) for our deserts.

So busy! So many project! So stupid!

Wow! That's over a hundred of Intel processors! So, what so excited??

I have no excitement at all. I have seen these enough. This project, that project, that event... almost every week we are producing over hundreds of computer.

I can't stand it already! Really "beh tahan"!!

What is a lively sauce?

Please read the final sentence on the bottle's fine print.
After a blady full pizza meal, i felt very lively. Wondering why...
Oh! I found the answer. Anyway, is a nice phrase for life. Just sharing.
