When she get into the bus and the bus continue their journey , me and my mom went to Hussien Nasi Kandar Restaurant for breakfast. Looking at the menu for a while, then i decided to try Roti Cheese , i never try it before ;))  ( I love cheese:">).  Roti Cheese is almost same with Roti Canai but the different is, they added cheese into Roti Cheese.

I used to celebrate Chinese New Year when i was a kid. My family and I lived in a Chinese neighbourhoood since i was born but when i was 12 years old, we moved to other village and stayed with my grandmother. While staying at the Chinese neighbourhood, we also joined the Chinese New Year celebration with our Chinese neighbours. But, at that time, Chinese New Year or us is all about "Angpau".

Skynet sucks!!! That's all  I can say X-(.. to be more specific SKYNET (Alor Setar, Kedah branch) Sucks! X-( I won't say this without a reason.. So..here is the story. Last Thursday I ordered something (worth hundreds RM) from a friend in Selangor. Since it's already after 4 p.m,, he told me that he will send that product through a courier service the next day (Friday). So, the next day, he called Skynet and asked and reconfirmed whether the parcel could arrive  tomorrow (Saturday) and they confirmed that it will  be sent to the receipient on Saturday. He  reconfirmed this with SKYNET's staff twice, so that if they could not assured to deliver it on Saturday, he will send it to me through Pos Laju service instead. But,  since they confirmed it will arrive to my address by Saturday, he agreed to send it via Skynet courier service. And... the most miserable moment begin......... X-(X-( Saturday  17 Jan 09   : Waiting....morning..Nothing.... Atfernoon...Nothing...
