My son, Ernnes having his haircut at Ruban Saloon at Ipoh Garden East. Getting ready for school re-open on Thu, 3 Jan 2008. Most of the school children will have their hair cut during the end of the holiday season.
Hooray, at last, Maxis 3G service is available in my house, in Sunway City Ipoh!
My primary school classmate, Rita is back for a holiday in Malaysia, together with her son, Darryn. I took this opportunity to organise a primary school classmates Christmas reunion dinner at Indulgence, Ipoh.

Christmas Eve 2007. No special dinner nor special place to celebrate Christmas. Just a simple dinner at Sushi King @ Kinta City Ipoh. After dinner, walk around Jusco and take some Christmas photos.
Christmas Eve, 2007. 
How can i resist to jog in such a natural surrounding with lakes and small rivers around my home.
Today is Christmas Eve and I'm still working. 
Inside the lift, there is a Christmas greeting
I was back in Penang on Sat, 1 December 2007, to return my ex-company's car, the Nissan Cefiro, PFF1638. Upon arriving the bridge, the famous Penang bridge jam welcome me! Struck there for about 20 minutes and another 20 minutes to cross the bridge.
I took this picture on Fri, 23 November 2007, on my way home from work. I don't understand why some people are so un-contented. Working in a bank which provide annual increment and bonus is better or more secure than working in some companies, whereby you don't have any increment or bonus for some years....
Congratulation to Jennifer, on your big day!
My whole family attended Jennifer's wedding dinner at Xin Cuisine Restaurant, Concorde Hotel, Kuala Lumpur on Mon, 26 November 2007, evening. Enjoyed the 9-course dinner very much!
Thu, 15 November 2007, the day i took delivery of my new company's car, a Toyota Camry 2.4V with registration plate AGE1638.
My previous Company's car is a Nissan Cefiro Excimo 2.0. My ex-boss is generous and i'm grateful to him as he allowed me to use the Cefiro until my new Company's car arrived.
My new Company's car, a Toyota Camry 2.4V arrived on Thursday, 15 November 2007. I've to say sayonara to my old faithful Cefiro as I'll be making a trip back to Penang to return the car back to my old Company.
The narrow and winding road from Tambun town to Sunway City Ipoh is congested due to the increased in population of that area. The government is building a new dual-carriageway to bypass Tambun town to Sunway City Ipoh. The bypass near the Sunway City Ipoh site has been completed but the other end near Tambun town is pending due to an old bungalow house sitting in the middle of the proposed new road. The contractors is now demolishing the bungalow in order to finish the road. Another heritage building will be gone in a few days time. However, traffic will be very smooth from the junction of Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah, near Pantai Hospital to Tanjung Rambutan with the completion of the whole dual-carriageway. I think sometime in order to progress you may have to sacrifice something!
Today is a public holiday in Malaysia for all Malaysian to celebrate Deepavali festival, a festival of Lights.
We were invited to our neighbour house to have Deepavali lunch.
Another of my favourite haunt for tasty wantan mee in Penang is at Yi Garden located at the junction of Macalister Road and Lorong Selamat.
The wantan mee comes together with char siew (roast sweet pork) and cost around RM3.00 per bowl. The different between this wantan mee and others is due to the big wantan! Each bowl of wantan mee comes with 3 big wantans. You can really taste the prawn inside the wantan.
The big wantan bring back memory to my hometown in Bidor, whereby the famous Pun Chun Restaurant also serves big wantan.
Ever since i came back to Ipoh, it is my duty to pick up my son from his school every evening from Monday to Friday, except when i'm sick, outstation or scholl holiday! I've joined the 'Parents-picking-up-children" club!
Kedai Kopi Seng Thor, located at the junction of Kimberly Street and Carnavon Street in Georgetown, is famous for its Lor Mee and Fried Oysters. However, I prefer the Koay Teow Th'ng (Cooked Koay teow with soup) stall. 
The soup is totally different from others in Penang but quite the same as those in KL i.e boiled pork noodles.
The stall is one of my favourite Koay Teow Th'ng stall in Georgetown and patronise it for the last time before returning to Ipoh.
In Malaysia, we do not have 4 seasons but only 2 i.e wet and dry seasons. During end of September to November each year, we always experience rain almost every day.
Took my daughter and son to Ipoh Parade to try the world's coldest ice cream i.e 
A low key celebration for Ernni's 11th birthday at home. No birthday party but a dinner treat at Sushi King, Jaya Jusco Kinta City. After coming back from dinner, everybody is waiting for her to blow the candles and cutting a 2kg tradisional Indian butter icing cake!
Happy birthday!
Restaurant Sai Lam is situated at the junction of Carnovan Street and Chulian Street, in Georgetown, Penang. At night the junction is alive with famous hawker stalls like fried fishhead mee-hoon, porridge, fried yee mee, curry mee and fruit juices. And not forgeting the satay with sweet potatoes sauce! 
Penang is not famous for its wantan mee. But there are a few exceptional places where i like the wantan mee. One of it is located at Sai Lam Restaurant. Beside wantan mee, they also offer beef soup mee. The stall open throughout the day and night.
The wantan is great filled with pork filings but no prawn. While for the dry wantan mee, it is a bit crunchy but perfectly cooked! There are some pieces of chicken and char siew added to the mee. The soup contained beef stock but they are quite stingy on it. You will not get a bowl of soup if you do not order additional wantan. For RM3.70, i get the wantan mee with 7 pieces of wantan.
