Valentine's Advertorial.

Posted by Acute Critique on 1:25 AM in ,
You know, this is my first ever advertorial post that i have written. It wasn’t supposed to be this first, I had something else in mind somehow, somewhere, and something happened and I just can’t go back to that.

So. . .

This is it.



Advertorial.


Everyone knows that Chinese New Year is just around the corner, like very near. Very very near loh. Bought all the necessary stuff yet? By necessary, i meant clothes, household items, food items to stock up your house, new furnitures, new coat of paint, new shoes, new car, new house(!), new bf/gf(!!), new hubby/wife (!!!).


Nah, i was just joking about the new bf / gf / hubby / wife. Lol. Well, the ones that you have now used to be “new” sometime ago, so it doesn’t meant that you had something old all along isn’t it? ;p


So guys, i am emphasizing on GUYS because im pretty sure that all GIRLS out there knew what day it is on the 14th February 2010. Nope, it is not JUST first day of Chinese New Year. It is also going to be Valentine’s Day.


No no no. Don’t even think of getting out of this one with excuses like;

“Baby, it’s CNY. Let’s just go back hometown and do our usual visiting.”

“Honey, c’mon. It’s CNY. Yea, i know it’s Valentine’s too but do you really wanna SULK the whole day just because i did not get you anything? It brings bad luck and ill fortune!” (And just because of that, the wife/gf will immediately put the case to rest and the happy bastard get’s off scot-free)

“Wifey dearest, no worries okay? We will celebrate AFTER cny so we didn’t miss out anything.” (That’s abit late but if both agreed on it, i guess it should be fine isn’t it? Now whether he WILL remember to do what he said is a different thing altogether)



:::



Time Out. Very hungry lah. Going to make myself a Milo and Maggi Mee.



:::



Okay. Im back. ;)


Now, where was i? Oh yea. The metaphoric conversation between bf/gf/hubby/wife. And so, which one do you think most probably will happen?


Will the GIRLS get scolding like the sulking one? Or the delay one? Probably a replacement perhaps?


I think, it shouldn’t happen like this. Why be so giam and try to work your way out of getting your gf/wife a gift? Yes, probably most of wives now wants something else rather than gifts but if you send her something, it shows alot more about you isn’t it? It shows that you are still romantic, conscious and constantly making the relationship new and alive. If both of you just let things be and go with the flow without putting in (at least) some effort into your relationship, it will sooner or later wither and die. So, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!


Have i put in some senses into your brains yet guys?


Yes?


Ehem. Hence this is the advert that i am going to write. So ladies and GENTLEMENS, heads up and look.




How’s the sneak peek? Nice? Let’s see the ACTUAL product.


This is called Genuine Love.


The arrangement consist of 40 stalks of Sweet Light Pink Roses and Deep Crimson Roses, the colour that is not too conventional as Red but slightly deeper than the light pink as a contrast, arranged in an abstract coordination and lastly be put in a crystal clear vase.


According to a research, 40 stalks of Roses meant “my love for you is genuine”. The name struck a chord when the creative team building their products in MnC, and they kept it for further reference. When the team found these two colours and mixed them together, they have found it. And so, that is the short discovery of this product called Genuine Love.


Ehem. By ‘creative team’ from MnC, i meant the persons involved in creating something out of nothing. So, who do you think is behind all this? ;)


FYI, MnC means Mabs N Cals. Visit us here to know more. :)

The Genuine Love is being market at RM 130.


This is Intimate Love.


Consist of Deep Crimson Roses, White Casa Lilies and Red Berries, being arranged nicely in a crystal glass vase. It is very easy to give, take, maintain and care for the flowers. All the hard work was borne by the creative team. ;p


This is priced at RM 60.


If you purchase both items from this blog, you can get 10% off. Can’t read properly?



10% OFF.



A special treat just for you. :)


To view more on other discounts or products, view here.


P/s: If you went to the website and could not find both products, no worries. It’s because we have the special privilege to introduce to you here first. The product should be up in a day or two.

Goodbye.

Posted by Acute Critique on 11:01 PM in ,
As i walked down the hallway, i could not believe that i am here, yet again. This time, the person is very much younger. So young, so full of life, so much in front of her, so much to do, yet all is in vain.


Two years ago, i blogged about her.



Today, i am going to blog about someone with the same fate. Only younger.



Her name is Yinn Ying. She was my cousin sister. Her mom is my dad's youngest sister. She was just 15 years old when this happened.

Back then, her mother, my aunt was a very rebellious teenager. Ran away from home, dated guys without parents' knowledge, gotten pregnant and married in early twenties. Hence, this is the love child between her and her now ex-husband.

My family wasn't a big family. My dad is the eldest, have 2 younger sisters and 1 younger brother. My uncle have 1 son and the lil boy is only 4 years old this year. The other aunt did not marry and my youngest aunt have since remarried after the divorce. She have 1 daughter and 1 son.

My aunt divorced at a very young age, when Yinn Ying was just a child and her brother a baby, not even a toddler. The father took the son as his family favors sons more and hence my aunt took Yinn Ying. She was a very strict mother. As she knew, she have gone through so much and experienced so many things, thus she thought by being strict to her only daughter, it will protect her daughter from harm and protect her from going through the same shitty things she'd gone through.

But alas, her daughter is just like her. Both very stubborn, rebellious and would not listen. Both would just do whatever they wanted and not take heed from anyone else. When things backfire, they will suffer the consequences.

And so, on the fateful day, January 10th 2010, approximately 1am, Yinn Ying climbed out her room window, tried to walk over to the other main door balcony, tried to run away from her home to meet the guy she wanted so much to see, and alas, she fell.

She was staying at level 17th of a condominium.

She lost her life just like that. Nobody knew.

The security guards found her body and recognized her from which unit, called up and woke her mom. Her mom did not believe them, looked frantically in her house, kitchen, toilets, her room, little brother's room and when she returned to Yinn Ying's room, she saw her windows were opened. She walked slowly towards it, and finally, she looked down from the window, and saw her daughter lying there at the ground floor, drained and lifeless.

:::

:::

:::

:::

:::

That was what we know of how they found Yinn Ying's body. At least, her frontal features are alright, she still look pretty and no harm to her face and body. But the post-mortem results showed that all her inner organs have 'exploded' and should she be able to survive the fall, she most probably be 'vegetable' for the rest of her life.

That fateful night, her mom last talked to her at around 12 something midnight, asking her not to stay up too late. Don't play computer too long, etc. Just like any usual thing a mom would say to a young teenage daughter.

Apparently, Yinn Ying wanted to go out on Saturday night with her friends and wanted so badly to go out. In fact, the 'friends' were just fabrication. She wanted to meet up with a guy she got to know from Facebook. But because it was too late, around 11pm her mom forbids.

And thus, Yinn Ying thought that after waited till her mom is asleep, she will make her move to go out. She did not really want to run away, just wanted to have a little fun, a challenge or experience. Why would she so dumb to climb the window you ask? Because her mom, knowing her daughter very well, locked her room door from the outside. Yinn Ying have tried and succeeded in sneaking out of her house numerous times and drove her mom's car out, yes without license and she is only FUCKING 15 leh! Damn, when i was 15, i was so timid and scared of my dad. Btw, i still am.

And so, that is why she chose the window. Tied a raffia string, ONE raffia string damnit *is she out of her mind?* to her bed frame, and climb out her window. Just. Like. That.

And we guessed that she lost her footing and fell, flat on her back as she did not have much external injuries, only a few minor bruises on her palm and elbow.

Do you know how hard it is for an old man, an 81 year old man precisely to know of this piece of mis fortunate news? Have you seen an old man cried? Really break down and cried? Sobbing non-stop? I did. He was my grandfather.

And it breaks my heart to see my aunt, broken and devastated. Cried until no more tears. Her ex-husband cried noiselessly. And my mom, cried and sobbed until i feel that my heart is gonna burst from all the sadness.

Rest in peace my dear little sister. Hope you have better things coming your way.

Ah Beng & Ah Lian.

Posted by Acute Critique on 11:51 PM in
The Classic Ah Beng & Ah Lian jokes.

==================================================================


Ah Seng wants to make love with Ah Lian but he is afraid that Ah Lian will get pregnant, so he approaches his friend Ah Beng for advice. Ah Beng said "Aiya, very easy one lah. Nah, take this packet of condoms and follow the instructions, nothing will happen one." So Ah Seng takes the condom and at night makes love with Ah Lian. Two months later, Ah Seng comes to look for Ah Beng and tells him that Ah Lian is pregnant.

"Cannot be what, did you follow the instructions or not?" asks Ah Beng.

"Na -bei! Got lah. The box says "Stretch the condom over organ before intercourse, I got no organ, so I stretch it over my piano loh."


=================================================================


Ah Beng to a long-distance telephone operator:

"Could you please tell me the time difference between Taipei and Las Vegas?"

Operator: "Just a minute......"

Ah Beng: "Thank You," and puts down the phone.


=======================================================


At a bar in New York, the man to Ah Beng's left tells the bartender," JOHNNIE WALKER, SINGLE." and his companion says, "JACK DANIELS, SINGLE."

The bartender approaches Ah Beng and asks," AND YOU, SIR?"

Ah Beng replies:" Tan Ah Beng, MARRIED."

=======================================================


After completing a jigsaw puzzle he'd been working on quite for some time, Ah Beng proudly shows off the finished puzzle to a friend.

"It took me ONLY FIVE MONTHS TO DO IT," Ah Beng brags.

"FIVE MONTHS? THAT'S TOO LONG," the friend exclaims.

"YOU ARE A FOOL."

Ah Beng replies," NO LAH, SEE THIS BOX, IT IS WRITTEN FOR 4-7YRS, LEH!"


=======================================================


Ah Beng took part in the Singapore Manhunt Competition. During the Q&A segment, the host asks, "Name a drink that begins with the letter 'G'."

The crowd shouts, "Gin! Gin!"

Others exclaim, "No it's Grape Juice!"

Another smart aleck yells, "Alamak, Gatorade!"

Host: "Quiet please."

Ah Beng laughs hysterically like a hyena before replying,

"C'mon man, you think I need your help? I got more original answer: Guni!" (cow's milk in Hokkien).


=======================================================


Ah Beng had just bought a new computer and was using it when he encountered some problems. He decided to use the 'Help' command.

After some tries, he became irritated and called the computer retailer for support.

Ah Beng: "I pressed the 'F1' key for help... But it's been over half an hour and still nobody has came to help me???"

Computer Retailer: ...............


=======================================================


In an English class:

Teacher: "Class, do you know the meaning of parents?"

Ah Beng: "Yes, teacher, it means father and mother."

Teacher: "Good. Can you give me an example?"

Ah Beng: "Sure. Cowboy's parents mean cowboy's father and mother. Also can say Cowboy's father is Cow Pay and Cowboy's mother is Cow Boo. So together we say Cow Pay Cow Boo (KPKB)."

Teacher fainted...............


=======================================================


Ah Beng with his two red ears went to his doctor. The doctor asked him what happened to his ears and he answered;

"I was ironing a shirt and the phone ring loh but instead of picking up the phone, I accidentally picked up the iron and stuck it to my ear. So kena loh!"

"Oh dear!" the doctor exclaimed in disbelief.

"But...what happen to the other ear?"

"Aiyah! That stoooopid dumbo called back!"


=======================================================


Ah Beng and Ah Seng rent a boat and fish in a lake everyday. One day, they caught 30 fishes. Ah Beng said to Ah Seng;

"Mark this spot so that we can come back here again tomorrow."

The next day, when they were driving to rent the boat, Ah Beng asked Ah Seng;

"Did you mark that spot?"

Ah Seng replie; "Yeah, I put a big X on the bottom of the boat."

Ah Beng said, "You stupid fool! What if we don't get that same boat today !?!?"


=======================================================


Ah Beng and Ah Seng exited and locked the car in a hurry, forgetting to remove the key which was in the ignition. Realizing the mistake, Ah Beng asked,

"Why don't we get a coat hanger to open it?"

"No, that won't work," answered Ah Seng.

"People might think we're trying to break in."

Then Ah Beng suggested,

"What if we use a pocket knife to cut the rubber, then stuck a finger in and pull up
the lock?"

"No," said Ah Seng.

"People will think we're too dumb to use a coat hanger."

The "kan cheong" Ah Beng shouted,

"We better think of something fast. It's staring to rain and the sunroof
is open!!!"


=======================================================


Ah Beng serving his NS overseas and far from home, was annoyed and upset when his girl Ah Lian wrote to break off their engagement and asking for her photograph back. He went out and collected from his friends all the unwanted photographs of women that he could find, bundled them all together and sent them to her with a note stating the following:

"Regret cannot remember which one is you. Please keep your photo and return the others."


=======================================================


Once Ah Beng , Ah Seng and Ah Lian went for dinner at the Compass Rose at the top of the Westin Stamford. After dinner, they went to the lift scanned the buttons and couldn't find the button for the first floor.

Ah Beng suggested taking the stairs but Ah Lian decided to press the lift button "G". They found
themselves on the first ground and Ah Beng remarked,

"Wah, you so smart, ah. How did you know this was
ground floor?"

Ah Lian replied ," Aiyah so simple you also dunno! G: stands for gero loh!"


=======================================================


One evening, Ah Beng and Ah Lian went to a lounge and requested the DJ to play the song "Ah Cheng Buey Lo Ti" (Ah Cheng buys bread). The DJ told them they only played English songs and asked them to request another song. They were upset and complained to the manager that the DJ was insulting them. After many hours of calming them down, the manager found out they were actually requesting the Righteous Brothers song;

"Unchained Melody".


=======================================================


Ah Beng and Ah Seng went to a hawker centre. Ah Seng noticed the hygiene grades issued by the Ministry of Health pasted at each stall and asked Ah Beng,

"Eh, the 'A', 'B', 'C' and 'D' stand for what ah?"

Ah Beng snorted and said, "Aiyah, this sort of thing you also dunno! 'D' stand for 'delicious', 'C' stand for 'can eat', 'B' stand for 'buay sai' (cannot) and 'A' stand for 'Alamak'!"


=======================================================


Long time ago, a rich Singapore tycoon wanted to know how happy a man could be if he was given one wish. He paid three people to test out his experiment. The rules were:

1. Each person could only have one wish.
2. They will be left on a deserted island for 30
years.
3. Food, but not liquor would be provided.

The first contestant, Billy Clinton (USA) asked for 30 prettiest PLAYBOY centerfolds:

"So I can make the most beautiful babies in the world."


The second contestant, Jon Major (UK) said,

"I want 30 years' supply of booze."


The last contestant, Ah Beng (Singapore) said,

"I want 30 years' supply of Saa-lim (Salem) cigarettes so I can smoke until I song-song."


30 years later, the three contestants came back for a press conference. Billy had with him 200 children and 30 estranged women. He remarked,

"It has been a long sexual experience for me and was wondering whether anyone care to buy a child. I will even throw in the mother for free!"

Jon, hanging on to a bottle of beer, was suffering from a hangover but he managed to utter these words.h

"God save the Beer! The Queen can drink seawater."

The last contestant, Ah Beng, hugging onto cartons of Salem shouted,

"Ni na beh! Buay kee gia lighter!!!" (@#$*! Forgot to bring lighter!)


=======================================================

LMAO! Just found this Classic Ah Beng and Ah Lian jokes from the forum. Really classic whey.. Read this ages ago.. Seems like most stuff i found, saw, or seen are kinda old-fashion even to myself. Signs of catching up with Age?

And oh by the way, found this picture from Brother's fb. This is how the Thai Fish Farm looks like during daytime.

Thai Fish Farm at Hulu Langat

Posted by Acute Critique on 11:52 PM in ,
Last Saturday was my off day (finally!) and as usual i went back to Mom's place to chillax. Then, around late noon, the sky is getting darker, hence we huffed and puffed scurrying around helping Mom to quickly close her stall, because...

Her stall is not waterproof.


AND being rained on your supposedly "sunshiny off day" is absolutely NO FUN.

After that, we sent her back home. Brother was at home as he came back on Friday, before heading out to work again on Monday. This time, to Kuantan, even further than Pahang leh. Wtf. So, all of us just chill at home and guess what. My cousin was watching a very old drama series. It was Journey to the West part 1, the one with Dicky Cheong. Oh my gosh. Ages ago since i watched that show.

Initially, Mr. Driver just want to send mom home and we ciao go dinner ourselves but Mom persisted that we stay for dinner and wait for Dad to come home. So i begged pleaded asked Mr. Driver to "stay lah, we eat dinner with my family. Moreover i'm not always home ma.." >_<

So, he relented. <3

Then, my oh-sho-shmat Brother suggested to go eat at this place very the Ulu wan. Situated on top of a hill called Hulu Langat, near to Look Out Point, if you ever know where is that. =__=; But surprisingly, after googling the restaurant's name, a few blogs came up and they did a review of it wor. So much by saying that it was an "Ulu place". By Ulu means kampung-ish or too rural of a place.

And so, we cheated. Oklah, not really cheated cheated but we 'cut the queue' or 'sin zham hau chao' because my Dad would NEVER EVER WANT to eat there 'cause after the place goes through an expansion and renovation, they charged a per entry parking fee of RM 2.

=____=; Right? Just because of RM 2.

So we left home to the restaurant first as Dad needs to pump petrol. Upon reaching the place, Brother called Dad and lied that we were ALREADY there. LOL! Sho farney. Dad was pissed of course but we don't care, as our need to eat there is bigger than his emotion. ^o^

And so, as we were there earlier, we got the upper hand in ordering what ever dishes we want. Muahahaha~ As you can see, Dad is quite a particular person and his choice of dishes never change much for the past 50 over years of his life. So... That is why we NEED to do what we did, all in order to get to eat what we want.

When Dad, Mom and Cousin reached about 20 minutes later, we have done ordering, chose the tea and were sitting happily as we smiled at them as innocently as we could. By we, i meant Brother, Brother's Gf, Mr. Driver and Me.

The first dish that arrived that night was Steamed Okra (Ladies Fingers) with Fried Anchovies, Brother's Gf's favorite.

Steamed Okra with Fried Anchovies


Up next was Seafood Tom Yam. Very flavorful, just the right amount of spicyness and crisp sour-ish of the soup base. Oh yeah, by the way, that's Brother. Acting shock. I think he should "Act Syiok" instead of "Act Shock". Looked more like a retard to me. (^o^)b

Seafood Tom Yam Soup


Then MY favorite vege arrived! The nicest Belacan Fried Pucuk Paku i have ever tried in KL. Nom nom nom. *happy

Belacan Fried Pucuk Paku


And then the fishes arrived. Fishionably Late. Hahaha ~ Ok peeps, this is Thai Style Steamed Talapia Fish. Everybody say "Hello!" This is Mom's favorite. How can we forget to order her favorite leh. That would be so heartless of us. (T3T)

Thai Style Steamed Talapia Fish


Contestant No. 2 is Ms. Salted Egg Fried Sotong from Venezuela. Lol. Trying to be funny, but even i myself thinks that i'm lame. Sigh.. But this dish is damn nice leh! But must faster eat once the plate being placed on your table. Actually i meant, eat it while it's hot lah.. Because after the fried sotong cool down, it is not crunchy anymore and the salted egg sauce will make the thing soggy and it is not nice to eat already.

Salted Egg Fried Sotong


Up next on the AFC channel, Chef at Home by Chef Micheal with his signature dish for the day; Grilled Lamb Shoulders.

Haha~ How does that sound?

The tender meat of lamb grilled to perfection, amidst this is NOT a professional western food joint nor made by a professional grilling chef like Robert Rainford or something. So it tastes pretty good, not too well done nor too rare and marinated just nice with all flavors intact after grilling. At RM 10 per plate, i think we could not ask for more loh.

Grilled Lamb Shoulders


Last but not least, my absolutely favoritest favorite from Thai Fish Farm Restaurant: The Salt-coated Grilled Talapia Fish. This is actually quite pricey, RM 27 for a medium sized fish, coat it with lots and lots of salt and grill? Put it over fire until the fish is cooked. More like barbequing the fish? I don't know and not quite sure what is the term to use for the method of cooking this dish.

Salt-coated Grilled Talapia Fish


And so this is all the dishes that we have ordered that night, thanks to Brother and I, the two mischievous ones.
