An outing for the 4 of us

The weather isnt with us today. The weather has been good all day round when i went out to drop my c.v. It started with dizzling when we first decided to leave jbc and it followed with moderate rain. We have no choice but to take some shelter near queenstreet station.


After about 10mins of waiting, the rain got smaller and we proceed our way to our destination - The Mussel Inn.


We ordered 3 x 1/2 kilos of mussels, with morrocan, blue cheese and shallots flavors, and also a seafood plater to be shared by the 4 of us :








The 2 of us here :






And the 2 of them over there :




And the all 4 of us together :




It was still drizzling when we left mussel inn. We were lucky to see rainbow over the building with clock near one buchanan street junction. And of course, we stopped and snapped a few shots before we proceed on to our next destination.




As initially planned, we proceed on to Gala Casino - To grab at least 5 pounds each and to enjoy some free flow of cocktails as a newly registered member.






Everything just went on smooth and nice as planned. In Gala, everything was F.A.S.T!!!


The registration was FAST! It only takes you less than 3 minutes to fill in your personal details. Malaysian driving license or passport is valid for age verification. After registration, immediately, i was given a member card and a 10 pounds roulette voucher.




Then we proceed on to the gambling area at the basement. I can say that it was quite normal last night. At least, you see some people playing at each table. Blackjack, pokers, texas or roulette. Initially, i was told that it was really quiet even during a busy friday night.


After wandering around for quite sometime, looking at how people place their bet, finally we proceed forward to place our bet with our 40 pounds of vouchers. In the end, we won some chips which are to be changed into real money later on. I bet many of you already figure out the way to get the 'confirmed 5 pounds' from Gala. :P




We were told that we can get complimentary cocktails FOC also. So, we went on and ordered one cocktail each and snapped some shots INSIDE the casino before we leave.



Loupoh's Ladyluck which cost freaking 6.75 pounds! Tasted not bad though.




The very leng zai bartender doing his job :)




My lemonade jack daniels.


The rest are some final shots before we leave Gala Casino, with smile :)











Gala Casino, GG-ied.

The perfect british holidays

It's the summer holidays now yet i'm still having university classes! How i long for a summer break away from glasgow, away from the city to enjoy the sun during the 3 month summer season instead of attending the dreadful classes. For those who have made their summer holidays booking ealier, kudos to them, they must have paid a reasonable sum for their trip. However, for those who haven't made any bookings, fret not. How about having a nice relaxing trip at the Holiday Cottage Cornwall, without having to pay an enormous sum of money albeit having made a late booking? Not only does this trip cater for partners on a date, it is also for those of you out there who are seeking for a holiday at the beach with your family, walking around the coastal footpath, enjoying the sea breeze. If a weekend break is all you could afford, Cornwall should also be your choice of a summer holiday destination for your weekend getaway!

Cornwall is located at the south of the United Kingdom mainland. It is a great choice for those of you who are seeking for a nice short holidays at the beach during this summer holidays! Take it as a choice!

Need a job desperately

It is my 600th post!


Made myself to the cal lab to print another 15 copies of C.V. (Curriculum Vitae).


Went online to Subway.co.uk once again and tried my luck by submitting my application to the top 10 nearest subway store to jbc.


Tried my luck in glasgford street, Argyle street, St. Enoch and made my way back to jbc when my stomach wasnt feeling too good.


Spent at least 20 minutes filling in the application forms in Peckhams's in Glasford street. Was given a name card from McD and Sportdirects. Nowadays, you dont have to go out for a walk-in interviews, instead, you can sit relaxing and apply online at home!


Too lazy to work for BA until wednesday.


Any good way to earn money besides waiting? Gala casino, here we go? haha.

ADV - A day in Caravan Park

It is summer holidays right now, many are still thinking of where to go for a short family trip. Well, if you can withstand the hot weather around the europe country, go ahead, if not, going to the beach might be great choice at this summer. Alternatively, you might also want to spend a day or two in some famous waterpark with your family or your loved one.

Caravan Park Devon is a perfect place to for summer holiday. It is a park and it has a beach located only half a mile away. It is the closest park to the Goodrington Sands that contains a beautiful Beach, Quay West Water Park, Family Pub, Go Karts, Water Sports, a Cliff Walk and Young's Park. You can spend one whole day near the beautiful beach and playing in the Quay West Water Park, as well as the next day having a light walk near the Cliff to capture some perfect scenary.

If you have a little brother or sister who likes animal, there is a Paignton Zoo, which located short distance away from the Park that you might be interested in.

It has been a really long time since i last visited any water park for a short break, perhaps, the Caravan Park Devon holiday package could cheer up my day during this hot summer!

Anwar will be the next prime minister of malaysia?

Nine years ago, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim was the undisputed Prime Minister-in-waiting too, before he was sacked by his former boss Tun (then Datuk Seri) Dr Mahathir Mohamad, who accused him of sexual misconduct and abuse of power.


Last Saturday, a new party volunteer Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan, 23, filed a police report claiming Anwar had sexually violated him on several occasions.


Today, he stood up in the public to seek for revenge.


He claimed that he was arrested and beaten up by IGP Tan Sri Rahim Noor before being charged and jailed.


July 3 - KUALA LUMPUR: PKR’s plan to make Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim Prime Minister by Sept 16 is still on track, said the party's vice-president Azmin Ali.

Watch the 10 mins video at how Anwar giving speech to the rakyat, scolding this bodoh and that bodoh, professional my foot, kena pukul sampai mati and blah blah blah...




He claimed that "memaksa saksi, menipu fakta untuk buat pertuduhan ke atas saya... saya ada bukti..."

The short few days with family

As i have said, I have been extremely B>U>S>Y in the past few days.


Okay here is what we actually did in London :

1) I went to london last friday to meet my parents. After one whole year of not seeing each other, i feel really great to see them once again. Nothing much has change - my dad is still like that, my mum is still the same but my ah ma claimed that she has lost 7kgs and my bro look very dark now. In addition, i met my granny today!




2) We went around London city solely by walking and metro tube. Can you imagine bringing one 76 year old granny and one 72 year old ah ma together with you, walking up and down several hundreds of staircase steps in one day? We did it. I feel very bad to make them to walk so much. At the same time, i feel very proud of them!










3) We went to tower bridge, tower of london, london eye, big ben and the parliment places, london bridge, china town in less than one day.
















4) This is a must go place in china town for food. It is cheap and nice!




5) One bad comment that i have is that the people in london have bad attitude towards the cleanliness in the metro tube. Is it very common to see almost EVERYONE to leave their newspapers in the tube.








6) We then took a bus from victoria bus station to london stansted airport and reached glasgow at 12.30am on saturday.




7) It was finally my graduation day then. More updates coming up next.








8) And we went to O'neils for dinner that night.






9) And its finally time to say bye bye to my family on tuesday. I sent them off to board a bus to glasgow international airport at George Square.



Good bye papa, mama, ah ma, granny and bro! cyaz soon when i go home!

A quick update

I have been extremely B>U>S>Y in the past few days.


Okay here is what i did :

1) Friday - Went to London to meet my parents, ah ma, granny and bro. Bring them tour around london for one day and came back to glasgow saturday midnight.

2) Sunday - Went around glasgow. Cook lunch and dinner for parents. Busy preparing for graduation.

3) Monday - Its GRADUATION DAY. Gona blog very detail about it for sure.

4) Tuesday - Went to shop for souvenirs last minute. Sent my parents home. Watch wanted.

5) Today - Slept for more than 8 hours last night. Still trying to catch up what i have missed to do in the past few days.
