My husband says that I'm trying to kill him with Super Junior (SuJu). He's probably right, I'm still in my SuJu funk selepas their awesome concert last weekend.

But my husband, being the awesome and supportive man that he is, helped to download a SuJu movie for me (who's killing who now?). Dan kalau dia tak sporting, tentu dia tidak benarkan saya pergi ke konsert bersama Korean wife saya (fine, my good friend Mei Peng is Chinese and the only Korean thing she knows to say to me is "Saranghae!", which mean I LOVE YOU).

If there's one thing local artiste can learn from these boys is that you don't need to dance/sing beria-ria/terkinja-kinja sangat to be awesome. *cough Adam AF/Stacy AF cough*

Sekian terima kasih.

Last batch of Porto Romano

Ok last pics of my lunch at PR. Lunch untuk meraikan 2 of our assistant executives yang naik pangkat (yay more work for them!). Overall the food there is exceptionally good, and spacious too! Kita tak makan dessert di sana, because it's right next to Wendy's so we indulged in frosties and milk shakes instead.
 
Porto Romano is located sebelah Garden International School in Mont Kiara. There is also a branch in TTDI and KL. Sekian terima kasih.

a few more to go!

yummmmm

yummeh!

I had lunch at Porto Romano today.

to ponder

I remember dulu ketika my short stint di Illinois living in a Malaysian community, my (Malaysian) neighbor sedang memukul anaknya. Just pukul biasa, kerana anaknya nakal. My other neighbor who was generally a nice person, seorang warga Amerika, tanpa disangka terus meluru ke akak itu dan memaki-nya. "This is not how you discipline a child!," jeritnya. Maybe memukul anak is not part of American culture.
 
Not in my family either. I've never been slapped, kena rotan atau dijentik even. I think I turned out okay. Perhaps kaedah psychology yang diguna my parents lebih memeritkan dari deraan fizikal.
 
That's why I tak boleh terima hakikat that a child, any child, should dipukul didera sehingga boleh menyebabkan kematian. Tambah jelik apabila masyarakat sekeliling hanya sekadar memerhati, berbisik sesama sendiri dan lambat mengambil tindakan. Tambah meloyakan apabila ibu si kecil comel ini diberi perhatian umpama dia-lah yang terseksa; dialah yang memerlukan bantuan kerajaan untuk membawanya ke jalan yang benar. A child is dead. The blood is on your hands too.
 
Sedih apabila memikirkannya.
