Man of the House @ NTV7


I've just managed to watch this interesting drama online. Its our usual common local drama which pictures a local family and the usual crisis surrounding a family. But what makes this drama interesting to me is that I see part of my life being portrayed in the drama itself.

How the eldest son Zhen Jianyi being constantly misjudged and misunderstand by his dad, his working lifestyle (Though, Im not as lazy as he is but I've changed numerous jobs which my dad constantly reminded me that I can change 12 jobs per year and still come home for Chinese New Year and in return, i told him, not only CNY, I can even come back for Christmas, Hari Raya, Deepavali, Gawai, wesak, labour day...... n etc.... :P) and how he met a gal of his dream but after finding out that she is super rich, and all other suitors are rich and famous, came to a self realization and retreats to a corner and didn't dare to even think bout persueing her anymore because of such a big gap in society value.

The 2nd son, Zhen Jian’er's relationship with his other half who is constantly giving him problem and her distrust causing him problem at work. Her forever "always have something destructive to say" mother-in-law" and feeling of being caged.

The 3rd son, Zhen Jiansan passion for what he wants in life is being restrained by his dad who wants him to be what his dad wants of him.

Well, here is a proof of what my friends who kept on reminding me that my life is like right out of a film / drama script..... lol

Living out of the unexpected

McFarlane's Concept of a Zodiac Cancer

If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have appreciate life. There was a time in life, when whatever I do, I do it for the sake of challenging myself to the max, neglecting the consequences even if its ruining my life. Throwing away everything asking for the end. If it's not for this life, I would not have so much experience to dwell in.

Spending my life, throwing away everything back then is really a big wake up call for me now.

Appreciate life, There is more to life than meets the eyes. You are the least unfortunate people in the world. At least, you don't have to go through what I went through.

Be Glad

Be happy
Be appreciative

War Inc

Iv just watched "War Inc." After one year since its release, I finally got around to watch this interesting film. Initially, I thought its going to be a very serious film on war and strategy.. lots of talks and high impact scenes.. but turns out, its the most un-serious - serious kinda film. lol... i mean, it sounded serious, and starts of really serious for the 1st couple of minutes, then out of the blue, Dan Aykroyd appeared on the screen in the toilet which having a poop to discuss about war. I thought its kinda weird but I brushed that scene aside. then more and more weird scenes and activity started occuring and I finally realized its a very comical type of film... hahaha... i enjoyed it as its something very new and out of the expectation.... Very entertaining indeed.

(P.S. I love the cinematography and angle capture of the film)

Universal Nutrition - ULTRA WHEY PRO

Iv just purchase this GIANT SIZE protein after my previous tub of ON 100% Gold Standard Whey depleted. This is not the largest size as I was told there is a 20 lbs size at the price of RM831 for 303 servings at Ego Nutrition.

The one i got is the 6.6lbs at the price of RM280 for 100 servings / RM2.80 per serving. Hahahaha... news flash, this is not the cheapest as the one I was using was at RM2.59 per servings but I wanna give it a shot to see if its better than the one I was using.

This is another product, SciVation Whey 10lbs at the price of RM357 for 160 servings / RM2.23 per serving. The most economical in the market at the moment... which I know of actually... if there is any other much cheaper but with the same quality and content as this one, please inform me :) I would love to purchase it and of course recommend it to my friends. Initially, I wanted to buy this product, but due to the lack of fund, I have to settle for the one I have now.

The UN Ultra Whey Pro is said to be the purest whey protein available and contains triple whey formula protein supplement. I've yet to try it so I have no comment on the taste. Anyways, this protein is consist of ultra-filtrated whey concentrate, whey isolates, partially hydrolyzed whey peptides and glutamine peptides. For maximum biological value, this protein concentrate has been ultrafiltrated and processed at the lowest temperatures to prevent denaturing of the protein and to ensure retention of the protein’s maximum nutritional functional qualities.

Ultra Whey Pro contains no ion-exchange whey protein, which robs the protein of valuable protein fractions such as glycomacropeptides, immunoglobulins, and lactoferrin. Ultra Whey Pro is also an excellent source of all three BCAAs (leucine, isoleucine and valine). Ultra Whey Pro is low in carbs and fat, and mixes easily into a great-tasting protein shake.
