Really addicted to the Tae Wang Sa Shin ki. I like the tomboy girl, Suchini, in the show.
She looks so different in her before life, very pretty. Her before life name was Sayo.
And another character I enjoy watching is the bad guy in the show coz he always links 2-3 sentences together and finish it within one breath. Very funny the way he continuously lowers his voice to finish the long sentence.

It's 27 March today. I'm supposed to write a new post instead of editing it here. But, the post will look too short if I just add this section to a new post. So I just add here la. Hehe.
I've known my Korean name more than a year ago. Got it by google-ing my Chinese name's character one by one.
So I proudly announce my Korean name here, just for fun! Hehehe...
강영희
It's pronounced as Kang Yeong Hee. Love this name. If pronounced faster it can be yeongee I think. Hehe.. My name is very suitable to be converted to Korean. Very Korean-like. Hehe..
Sigh.. Really hope I can save enough money to learn Korean language.
Today very bersemangat. Hehe.. Drove all the way to FRIM early morning just for a short hike. 15 mins up the hill and another 5 or 7 mins down the hill and then walked all the way back to WY's house which took us about 50 mins. Actually went there not for training, it's more for the fresh air. I miss jungle air too much already. Can't stand the air quality here near my house. Most people cannot tell the difference but I feel the air here is a bit pungent, uneasy for the throat and nostril.
Although it was a short hike (not even a hike coz it doesn't seem like a hill to me), I got to breathe the fresh air and I was able to sweat quite a lot (I didn't drink much water also... dun understand why can sweat that much). Muscles not much pain but both ankles felt a bit as if it's overworked during the last 50 mins walk. It was just flat ground. I dun really understand why the ankles will feel pain. Hmmm.. But now ok pula. So should be ok la..
The funny thing is. I didn't bring my backpack this time coz I was thinking it was a short hike so backpack is kinda unnecessary. So I brought my handbag which I stuffed my towel and water bottle. When I parked my car, got down the car and jumped onto WY's mum's car only I realized I brought along the handbag.
WY's mum only dropped us off. So I didn't leave my handbag in her car. So, all the way power-walking and hiking up the hill I was carrying this handbag in my hands. I didn't carry it around my arms la. Coz I duwan to look like I'm going shopping in a jungle. But, I think I saw people glancing at my handbag when I was hiking. Argh.. So malu!!

Yesterday since I have no car to go lepak, I started watching 태왕사신기 Tae wang sa shin ki 太王四神记 casted by Bae Yong Jun.
The first episode was boring and slow. One eye contact can cast for 1-2 minutes one. But the second episode it started to become exciting.
Especially during the tomboy-ish girl scenes, I couldn't stop laughing. And young actor, Yoo SeongHo, who casted as the young version of the Bae Yong Jun's character is really good in acting. He's serious when he needs to be serious and playful when he needs to be. Those facial expression is like those of experienced old actors.
I'm the kind of person who will continuously listen to a song I like for one whole day until I'm bored with it. Hehe.
Today I have this urge to continuously listen to this song: 南拳媽媽 -下雨天. I've listened to it for 6 times in a row for one hour since I woke up in the morning. Haha..
----------
I'm car-less now. Woke at 9am to send my car for welding mudguard and spray painting. Wanted to go back to sleep after I'm home but went online and had my breakfast instead. Hmm.. Feel like going back to sleep now.
I'm supposed to be hiking at the Gap-Gunung Hulu Semangkok by now with MOTH (Malaysia Outdoor Trekking and Hiking) people. =( Too bad had to FFK them coz I have to send my car to repair. The mountain has a cool name - The Gap. It's situated near Fraser Hill at Raub, Pahang, 1183m in height. Hope can go there in the future to see whether the mountain is beautiful.

Woke up with right arm extensor and flexor (I found on the net, not sure whether it's correct) pain this morning. Recall back what I had done to have overworked my arm. No wonder. I had been 'exercising' my arm by pipetting yesterday from 10am to 5.30pm non-stop.
Hohoho! Finally I have the guts to put up the photos of my products! I mean my cooking. I cook my dinner lately since January. Every night and kept some for lunch. Save quite a lot but spent most of the money on the damn car. Pardon my language coz I really hate my driving skills. lol.
Let's start from those not so appealing from the appearance first (but taste good one le). Hehe..
ABC soup? Soup or not soup it's my all time favourite!
Steamed brinjal with sesame oil. I love this dish!
Bean sprouts with fish balls. A simulation of those of mixed rice stalls outside by using preserved szechuan pickle (榨菜) to make it tastes salty.
French beans, okra and carrot
Amaranth with garlics. Audrey's favourite.
Fried rice (taken when I was half way eating it. Haha). I didn't use rice that are kept overnight. I cook the rice with lesser amount of water so it's harder and ideal for cooking fried rice.
Fried chicken! Just fried this today. The oil 'jumped' around everywhere that I had to mop the floor after cooking. But it was tasty! The soy sauce and sugar that marinated the drumsticks still coated its surface giving it a sweet taste =)
Some of the food which are nice and appealing are not shown here coz whenever I done with cooking I'm too hungry to take the photos. Plus, when I noticed that I haven't take the photos of them I've already finished eating them. Hehe..

This song has been playing in my mind recently. Miss it very much.
Was laughing my ass off when watching this video. Very creative work. And I think this free hand artist is really good. Smooth lines, lively characters. Bravo!

Went to Gunung Angsi in Seremban last Sunday. Angsi is 825m in height.
After some research online, I have collected some figures for the KK trip. We are supposed to start hike from Timpohon gate which is 1866.4m from sea level. Then hike until resthouse at Laban Rata which is 3272m from sea level. That means I need to hike 1405m to reach the resthouse, which is only about 2 times of Angsi. Minus the decreasing air pressure I think I can hike quite easily la. Summore it's not Mesilau trail which is harder. But with decreasing air pressure, I'm not sure... Need to train more on endurance!! Then after that hike another 823m (about Angsi's height??) to reach the summit - Low's peak.
OK. Back to Angsi.
It's in Hutan Lipur Ulu Bendul Seremban. Have to pay RM5 for registration fees, fill in a form with climbers details (i.e. name, handphone number and IC number)
On the way uphill saw this pipe water. Is this mineral water from the hill?
Then all the way up the hill everyone has no energy to take photo. The trail was pretty demotivating actually. Most of the trail has this very steep uphill slope and when you look up it's like a never ending road. But sometimes it has really flat grounds after the slopes where I happily jogged a bit.
Climbed up without the ropes. Muahaha..
In some cases I think climbing without holding onto ropes is safer coz when you use rope your life is solely depending on it but when you use only your hands at least you know how secure you are and your body is closer to the surface and hence when you slip you can just lie flat on the surface and so the impact is not so strong. I hope I'm making a point.
Climb on all fours. Demonstrating how a monkey climbs up the slope. Hehehe..
And then we were at the top of the hill cooking lunch. It was only some chicken soup. Not enough for a meal. Next time have to bring more solid food to cook.
Nice scenery from peak
Took group photo at the peak with timer.
Then we started descending the hill.
There are some tips of abseiling I have been practicing:
First,
First test whether the rope is safe to use. Observe the rope whether it's worn out and then apply some pressure by pulling the rope a bit to check whether the tree is stable. I was a bit over in this photo, please do not follow. Hehe..
Second,
When you've hold tight onto the rope, cross the rope so that the rope is in between the legs.
Third,
Then start abseiling. Try every step before stepping on it firmly. The surface might be slippery or it might be some loose soil.
Fourth,
When you have one last step more to land on a solid ground, do not let go of the rope just yet. You might still need it.
Last,
After you had tested that the ground is solid enough to be stepped on and had made your last step on a stable ground then you are free to let go of the rope.
Nice scenery taken at the abseiling part
After crossing river
My stamina has improved quite a lot. And the next day I dun feel any muscle pain! =D
Hope next one can be Gunung Nuang. See how first la. Nuang is insanely long and tiring and demotivating. But this means it's a good training mountain.
