My Childhood Neighbour
I visited my mom in Bidor, Perak, this morning, Sunday, 18 November 2007, to pick her to my house in Ipoh for her medical check-up. I took the opportunity to take a photo with my 90 years old neighbour in Bidor, whom she seen us growing from a 4 years old kid!
Company Cars
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.

Tambun Bypass
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!

Deepavali lunch @ Manjit's House
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.
Wantan Mee @ Yi Garden
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!

Koay Teow Thng @ Kedai Kopi Seng Thor
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.
