It Happened to Me, It Could Happen to You

by Lau Chee Kin on Tuesday, August 31, 2010 at 8:14pm

The typical Merdeka Eve night started with an urge to watch the fireworks celebration in KLCC ended up in a racist attack by a group of teenagers. So, me and a friend of mine thought of a good solution to avoid the traffic jam in that area by walking from the office in Jalan Imbi through Pavillion, to Jalan Kia Peng through Convention Center to KLCC.

Sounds like an ideal plan as the path is a frequent walkway and is even advertised in Pavillion as 'Bridge to KLCC' (just to note that we didnt go into any dark alley).

At 10.15pm, we started walking towards Pavillion, stopped to get a drink at Starbucks and proceeded ahead. As we walk, we came across people from various races and foreign tourists along the way.

On Jalan Kia Peng, we walked past Novotel Hotel, Hakka Restaurant, Menara HLA and was reaching the junction of Jalan Pinang when a group of about 10 teenage Malay youngsters walking from the opposite direction. They looked like typical youths, giggling and talking to each other.

As we walked past them, suddenly one of them turned around and started to make a flying kick to my friend. Noticing the 'fun' he is having, his other friends started to do the same to me. It was so sudden and all I was thinking at the moment was, "What the hell did we do to them?"

Both of us ended up kneeling on the ground for a moment before more kicks and punches came flying in. Even though both of us had our tripod strapped across our shoulder, we were too shocked to react to it. Eventually one punch landed right on my right forehead and I started to bleed profusely. Seeing that they eventually stopped and walked away. WALKED AWAY, damn it. They were not even afraid to run but just WALKED AWAY like winning a game or something. The last thing I remember hearing from one of them was "Baliklah ke negara asal".

Imagine hearing this statement on Merdeka Eve.

first of all, congratulations to dD for winning the best costume title at the lg cookie monster party organized by nuffnang recently. what i could say here is that its really worth your effort!

so since the party is going to be held in penang island, i doubt that i would better look for costume shops there. i am in the mid of trying to search for them online, but it simply ain't easy... i will be very grateful if any of you penangites could recommend me of where i should head to. please leave notes in the comment box or email me.

Bright Beginnings Infant Formula

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of PBM Products. All opinions are 100% mine.

No, I am not pregnant, nor do I have infants BUT I do have several friends who are expecting and a great niece on the way so I like to keep up to date with all of the new baby products so I can stock up for them. Baby formula makes a great gift for new Mom’s but I suggest you wait until after the baby is born to see what kind to buy since all babies are different. The good news: they are all kinds of formula on the market and Parent’s Choice has a great variety to choose from.

When it comes to baby formulas there are always going to be several options at your fingertips. The three things that most people are most concerned about when picking one for their baby are how is the child going to react to it, does it provide all the nutrients needed and of course the cost!

Recently Parents Choice has decided it was time for a new look to the Bright Beginning brand of formula. It looks like they succeeded to me. I really like the new design. Not only is it attractive but it "pops" off the shelves.

Not just that, it also provides triple benefits for your baby:

1. Fortified with DHA & ARA, nutrients found in breast milk to support brain and eye development.


2. Prebiotics, like those in breast milk, to support a healthy immune system.


3. All the nutrients, vitamins, and minerals your baby needs for excellent growth and development during the first year.

Bright Beginnings Premium is nutritionally equivalent to the big national brand formulas – it’s just priced better to fit your family’s budget. Premium nutrition, without the premium price!

Talk to your pediatrician about which variety is the best for you and pick up some Bright Beginnings available at diapers.com . They have several offers going on right now ~ Free 1 - 2 day shipping on orders over $49, free returns and new customers get $5 off first order of diapers and formula!

I know breastfeeding is always best for your baby. Nothing can compare to breast milk. Not to mention so much cheaper, and/(or) no monies needed! But if you do supplement formula or feed your baby formula exclusively, consider store brand formula such as Bright Beginnings. They are just as good!

kids don't lie

alright, i posted this in my facebook status last week. but then on a second thought, i guess maybe its better if i share it with my blog readers too... ;)

i eventually don't wanna get into the basket and carry it myself (as in 'masuk bakul and angkat sendiri' ler...);

but what to do when it is true: lil' puteri, a youngest student at silver line studio called me "kakak" (big sister). well i corrected lil' puteri by saying that i can be called as auntie too like the other co-founder.

and you all know what lil' puteri told me then?... "tapi macam 'kakak' (but you are just like a big sister)!...", she replied with a kinda blurr face *glurp*

so what do you think people. to a school friend, that was sweet, which can be called as a real compliment. nevertheless kids don't lie... hiks! :)
