Politically Correct in a Crazy World

You need to listen to "Touch My Body" by Mariah Carey in order to know the song lyrics.However,for those who don't,you can still watch it anyway.

This song was sang by a Korean,and the way the English subtitle phrase his word is......Super Funny loh!Words like Gong Li and Rape me on my thigh really make my day.

But still you have to really admire his courage to even sing this song.It's not an easy song to learn,especially the fast pace at the beginning.

Interviewer: So tell me,why do you want to work as a administrative assistance when your current job is an assistant engineer?

Wei Liang: Oh,because I'm 26 this year and I'm still single.Therefore I'm switching back to administrative assistance to try my luck here.

Interviewer: ......

Sometimes I wonder why 70% of my colleagues in the engineering sector is still single and available?Or is it because they're hiding it from us and choose to do everything underground?

Recently Airasia had a new traveling destination with a airfare promotion from Kuala Lumpur to London for only S$311(one way ticket excluding airport tax and other surcharge)!This is indeed a great offer not to be missed.

I hope to go there someday,but right now I had my other priorities,which is going for further study,getting a driving license and making braces for my teeth.IF I were to go there,I'll visit the London Bridge,the Big Ben,getting a Mohawk hairstyle,and and and (I can't think of any).


The only thing I don't like about this advertisement is the slogan.Maybe there's nothing wrong with the Now Everyone Can Fly Xtra Long,but who on Earth wants to fly a very long journey from one place to another?Perhaps it's just me.

Maybe they can put Now Everybody Can Fly Further,but it will make the slogan rather dull.

I thought of going for my weekly jog but I had to cancel it when I smelled smoke.

Strange enough,I don't see any haze around my area,but the smell of the smoke is strong,really strange.My Mother told me it was due to the Indonesia forest fire.When I checked the website for more detail,it was because of the fire in Bukit Batok.

Looks like I have to stop my jogging session until further instruction.

Will stop jogging today makes Wei Liang a fat boy?Not at all.I went for a swim yesterday and managed to complete 15 laps(to and forth = 1 lap)in less than 1 hr and 15 minutes,1 stop and a bloody sunburn.I'll try to swim again this Thursday without stopping.This shall be my aim for this week.

Just a summed up conclusion before ending this Super draggy Langkawi post.

1. I really enjoyed myself for this trip,especially at the last day we actually shared with one another what we're going to do in future.It's been a very long time since we shared,so it's all good.

2. We missed a lot of nice scenery in Lnagkawi.The Lae of the Pregnant Maiden,the waterfalls,mangrove swamp,the cave,the cable car and the eagle feeding.

3. Bring lots of money when going Langkawi.Average spending in a restaurant is around RM$25 to RM$40 per person.Don't forget,this island is a touristy area.

4. Rent a car.This is a must to those who wants to travel around the island.Bring along a friend who knows how to drive.

5. Our hotel sucks.The shower just cannot make it and the toilet bowl had a weak flushing system.Say no to budget hotel.

6. Ask the islander for recommendation.They are a bunch of friendly people who would help you with getting good food,accommodations and places of interest.

7. Kelvin is always sleepy.Period.

That's all for the trip.For our next trip,the places that we're going next is as below:

A. Cameroon Highland

B. Mount Kinabalu

Lastly,here's a group photo to end this post:

Colleague: Wei Liang,can you help me carry this box to the office?

(Proceed to carry the box to the office)

Wei Liang: That's a very heavy box I'm carrying.Man,I'm still feeling tired after the jog yesterday.

Colleague: Aiyoh,young man.做一点东西就喊累。我不嫌累你更不应该喊累。

Wei Liang: ......



Just a simple idea of how the young people suffered during their working life.Maybe it's because your colleague failed to understand what you've been through,or maybe it's just you.

Truthfully speaking,young man like us do have their tired point.We're not god.We don't have godmode in us.So please try to understand our feeling.

Don't try comparing your tiredness to our tiredness.Different people have different issues.You have yours and I have mine.Tiredness is still tiredness.

End of rumbling.

Day 3 of Langkawi: Woke up very late for breakfast.We were supposed to go to one of the hotel for dim sum breakfast,but since the dim sum starts at 10am,we decided to move off around 9.30am.

The restaurant is kinda empty when we get there;not a single customer was inside.We started to think that we got our timing(day and time)wrong for the buffet.It was until when we were served by the floor manager when we went in.

Next up,we went to explore the rest of the uncovered places(waterfalls and beaches).We were supposed to go for the mangrove swamp and eagle feeding tour,but due to budget constrain and lack of interest,we had to give the tour a miss.

William knew I'm kinda disappointed,so he told me that he'll dress up like an eagle so that I can feed him.What the...



We continue to move on to another jetty,where we had our lunch over there with all the nice looking yacht.

didn't this picture reminds you of those pirated English MTV that you saw when you went for the karaoke session?



First off,we had some freshly made bread.The taste is so different from what we had from breadtalk;this bread actually melts in your mouth.






Overall,I loved the sandwiches and the ambiance.I checked from the website that there is another one in KL,so for those who wants to try out their food,you can go to The Pavilion.








We proceed to look for more beaches and waterfall.We came to a place where we encountered many sharp bends along the way.It's like playing a game of initial D,but this one is real.Ming Keat tried doing drifting and it left us almost vomiting.

Welcome to Pebble Beach,where we see many small crabs crawling all over the place.











For dinner,we had Northern Indian cuisine.We wanted to go to the Italian restaurant(next to it)but it was fully occupied and had to wait for another 45 minutes.

The ambiance is so dimly lit that my camera is unable to capture the place with the flash on.Even William's DSLR can't do any tricks to capture it.


The food is very nice,especially the beef.The beef is so addictive and it's well marinated.The only problem about this place is the long waiting time for the food to come and the poor service.When Ming Keat asked about the detail about the coffee,he got the reply of "oh this one very long one".

What very long?You mean the cup very long or what.No lah,it's the long waiting time for the coffee to come.I wonder if they're really lazy to prepare this coffee or what.

Another thing: The fruit juice just sucks big time.The carrot juice is REALLY carrot juice with no added apple or orange in it.Good for those who are going for diet.

End of part 5

One fine morning,you are taking a long nus journey from Jurong to...say,City Hall.The journey was quite until suddenly you feel the pain in your stomach.It was very unbearable.You blame the laksa that you ate yesterday.

You wanted to get out of the bus when you see any shopping centre/MRT stations nearby.

The problem is:you're in the middle of the expressway.

You decided to endure the pain.Think about the happy things,about the wonderful movie you've watched,just to forget about the pain you're having right now.It works,but for a while.

Finally,you saw a MRT station.You alight immediately.

The toilet you're about to go shows "under renovations until 15th February 2009.Sorry for the inconvenient caused."

You cursed and sweared after reading the signboard.With a sense of urgency,you quickly rushed to find a nearby shopping centre.

But there was none to be found.



So what you gonna do when this happened?What you gonna do?!

It happened to me sometime when I'm waiting for the bus to work,not to the extend it's so drama like the situation stated above.It's rather torturing for me to just endure the stomachache from my journey to work.Is there something wrong with my digestive system?

Before we mark the end of January(with still an outstanding Langkawi trip photos),I shall list down some of the resolution for 2009 that I've set:

1. Participate in at least 2 half or full marathon

Something I hope to achieve for in 2009.This resolution was set during November when I decided to go for something which I find it impossible.Currently the 3 marathon which I could think of is Sundown,AHM and Standard Chartered.I'll have to find out more from marathon runner like Gary.Keke...

2. Read 7 books this year

Why not 6?Why not 8?Initially I thought of reading 6 books,but my collegue challenge me to read 7,as 6 books is too slow(1 book per 2 months).Alright,7 books should be okay,it's a nice number anyway.

3. Learn Guitar and compose a song

Ongoing resolution for the past 2 years.

4. Getting myself 6-pac(or at least shape up)

This is getting nowhere.Since when Wei Liang becomes a fitness freak wanting a tone body?That's because when I put on my t-shirt I can see my belly bloating out which I find it rather unsightly that I had to buy myself a large t-shirt despite of my small size I should get a medium I should get a medium I should....

This will be the resolution I had so far.There may be more coming up,eventually something new will come into my mind for the next few months.

I realized that the first 2 days of Chinese New Year seems to be very short.In a blink of an eye it's the start of a new day of work.

It's rather boring at day 3 of New Year in the office.Almost everybody is still in their holiday mood.About 80% of my colleagues are not working today as they took leave for today.At least some peace and quiet,but too peaceful for goodness sake.

So what did I do for the first 2 days of New Year?Simple movie and visitation.

Day 1:

No visitation,not even bother to move out of the house to catch the eclipse.Instead I went to catch a movie "Love Matters" with Pamela,Clara and Ya Ling.I'm the rose among the thorns!Woohoo!!!


Filmed in Malaysia,this is about a married couple having some problems with their marriage life.It's those typical husband wants it but wife don't want but when wife wants husband cannot.Yeah,something like that.

I would say it's rather uncommon to watch something "crude" from Jack Neo such as making fun of the impotent-ness and some sexual related jokes.Overall,the movie seems to lack of a wonderful story line with meanings.

Overall,it's quite a funny show to watch and it's suitable for those who wanted to take something light during this New Year season.

Day 2:

Went to my colleague's house for a visit.It's rather rare for a colleague to open up her house for visitation.She cooked some dishes for us and I would say I like the friend wanton very much,not to mention the curry chicken and the wonderful desserts.

After this I rushed off to visit Pastor Bee Tin.When I reached her place,all the people had left.That means I got to finish up some of the food over there.


Walnut cake bought from Swiss Bakery.I simply looooooooved the dark chocolate chips inside the cake.It's known to contain no preservatives and low in sugar(based on my tongue when I taste this).


Some old school drinks bottles from Malaysia.It's quite rare to see this in Singapore nowadays.Maybe you'll get to see those from the drink stall outside esplanade.Go on,try your luck over there.

Day 3:

Gosh!I'm working on day 3!Hello reality.

Taking a break from the Langkawi post.

Happy New Year Eve to everyone.Think other than Christmas,Chinese New Year is another busy day for each one of us.If you're not busy dong spring cleaning or buying New Year goodies and clothings,then you're actually not celebrating Chinese New Year.

Before day 1 of New Year coming,here are some points for me:

1. Enough of the Chinese 牛 year and claim that it's something new and creative.I've heard this 12 years ago.

2. Not going to enjoy the New Year show by the mediacorp.Most of them are doing lip syncing of New Year songs.

3. Dragon is the only animal Astrologist love and they're always the case of good fortune.

4. Will the 财神 go on with the song 财源滚滚来?

5. I may sound jaded,but every year the New Year spirit getting weaker.

6. I'm free on 初一,but busy on 初二.No relative visitation on the first day but will be busy planning out schedule on where to visit on the second day.

7. Let pray that after the New Year,the economic crisis will go for the better.

Last of all,wish all of you a Happy New Year of the Ox.

Here we are on day 2.5 of Langkawi,with Kelvin Lee already in his sleep mode on.With Kelvin sounding asleep,what I'm most worried was whether if the hotel stuff contacted the agency.




In fact,we did.Praise the Lord!But Ming Keat wasn't happy that we are put in a room that was not supposed to be ours,with a RM$30 refund.Which means,we are staying in a lower quality room.Oh well...

After taking a short rest,we proceed to another nicer beach.It's slightly further to where we stayed with so called "better view" of the sunset.

The sand is very dry,that makes it easy to clean of when it sticks to your body,except your hair.I find it very hard to remove all the sand particles on my hair.I need help on that.

At night,we went to Wonderland seafood restaurant which Jenny recommended.With the help from the local,this place should be very good.

We had the friendly uncle to serve us.He even showed us his humongous prawn he had in his store.


As the prawn over here cost RM$8 per 100g and 3 of them weight about 1kg,we decided to get the smaller ones instead.

First off,we had fried fish with special(ABC)sauce.This fish was cut one side and the other side goes to the...







The slightly smaller version of the monster prawn.Check out the comparison between the prawn and the knife.


Fried calamari.This is one of my favorite dish.I think they put some kind of special powder to marinate them,that's why it's so addictive.

We were munching all the way,leaving us no time to even talk to one another.Different kinds of dishes were served in a short period of time until at the point of time when the next dish came,our table is filled with plates with food unfinished.

Overall,the food is fresh and the service is up to standard.For your information,this restaurant serves halal food.The total cost is RM$178(一起发!),which is worth the money for 5 of us.











I love eating chocolate brownie and I hope my other half knows how to make chocolate brownie.*hint hint*



Overall,I loved the warm looking environment and definately will go back there again if I were to go back next time.
