Food - Price sky high~~

I still remember when I was small, 1 roll of Gardenia chocolate bun was only RM0.10.
One plate of fried mee-hun was only RM0.20.
One bowl of "Lou-she-Fun" + 2 fish balls was only RM0.40.

Now:
1 bowl of Pan-Mee easily RM4.00, I'm saying Pasar Malam price only, not talking about those air-con restaurant, some more have to take number and queue.
Yet, bunch of people fighting for a seat to eat.


One bowl of ice-kacang, you can get at RM4.99 from 100-yen shop.
With the same type of ice-kacang, some places just sell it with RM9.90!
Just because their stall are at some expensive shopping mall.


When life is getting better, people have higher request on the quality of life.
They don't mind spending RM100 per person per meal.
For example, one plate of Lam-Mee is RM16.90:

And one simple spinach quiche is RM23~~!!!

Price is sky-high, because they are just selling their ambience.
Some restaurants will have "old-antique" house concept.
Some restaurants will have "homely" concept.


So "homely" that you can even sleep there.

That way, they can increase their price "reasonably".
Well, they may add in real and full ingredient, but I believe that it is still not so expensive that they have to sell at such price.

For some other stalls, when their stalls are being interviewed and on air, they will take the opportunity to increase their price, whether their food is really that yummy, don't care la, grab the opportunity to slaughter people first.


Some food is really good, no matter where it is , people will be able to find their way and queue for it.
Like this yummy unusual burger stall in Subang, I can't forget the taste.


It is so different from those traditional Ramly burger.... and the price is reasonable.


Some restaurants, just got the name only, but the food like bloody shit.
Look at the picture below, don't you think it looks like the chicken just got car accident and die at the roadside?

When it is buffet or free food, people will fight and grab like crazy.
The below picture was the amount of ice-cream eaten by one person....
One person~~!!!


Sometimes people can be so crazy until don't mind travel in bus for more than 8 hours, just to eat the food at the town there.
Many people took the bus to go back to Betong again and again, just to eat the Betong chicken.
hahaha, I'm saying the chicken that don't wear shoes one.


Anyway, I think the price of food is getting crazy.

Food is suppose for nutrient and to ease hunger, but now
It has became a tool to
show a person's status ...

to show that we are rich...

to show that we have class...

Is that the way to spend?

If I have money, I'll open restaurant, so easy to earn, and some more it is daily CASH~~!

Money in your pocket, rich people will find way to transfer it to their pocket.
Money in their pocket, is still in there for their possession.
So, who is silly now to pay for expensive food?
Who is the winner?

Will you spend on expensive food just for ambience and status?

Crazily active

This year, I was really crazily active.
Besides cycling, I still do my usual marathon run.
I just click on any button to join any run: small run, big run, chicken run...

And went to Broga Hills few times.
Of course to exercise and train up different set of leg muscles.
Meantime, I enjoyed looking at the sunrise.


I wanted to share this beautiful scenery with people around me...
So, I catched some innocent youngsters to go climb Broga Hill with me.
Here were some of victims of mine:

JX, LH and KY...
Hahah... they were good and energetic!
It was really an enjoyable moment to have outing with them.
And snap this energetic sun energy.


Seeing the latex flowing out from the tree.... nature is really beautiful and amazing
Can you here them talking to you?


Hopefully with so much exercise, I can climb the Summit of Borneo by end of this year.
I want to conquer you, Mount KK~~!!


We found toilet at the foot of Broga Hill...
It was just a square zinc box, with a hole dug for you to pee or throw your cake there.
So, if you have stomach problem, you still can find your way out...

What about Mount KK?
Can anyone who has been there tell me, is there any toilet at the peak?
hahahah....

Good or bad?

(Please click the image to see the clearer version)

My friend emailed me this.
At first I was thinking: Wah, this man is so clever... ... !
But on another thought ...Is he manipulating thing?

I think it is sinful to stir the shit up among people, just to get what we want.
This might be a short-cut, but ...
Sometimes in life, the faster we climb, the faster we fall.

Better be honest and do things step by step.

What do you think?

Do you have the same headache?

When you urinate, do you sit? or squat? or stand?
If you are a female, do you sit or squat?
If you are a male, do you sit, or squat, or stand?

hahaha....

Really curious ....

Ok, ok....
If you are the person that have to sit when urinating, whether you are a guy or a girl,
but the toilet bowl has got some urine droplets like this:


Or got piece of "shit"


will you still sit?
Or you will wipe with toilet paper first... then sit?
or you will rather squat?
Or stand?

Next question is .... public toilet has got so many people use the toilet bowl, if you still sit, will you sit on all the germs on the sit cover?

Or your size does not allow you to squat, will you still squat when the toilet bowl is dirty?

This photo has been circulating around showing the outcome of a girl squat on toilet bowl:

ok.... now you may choose a flat toilet to use instead of having a bowl.

But normally guy will not aim accurately to the hole... (hei hei.... what hole?)
So the urine normally spill or jump on the floor here and there... and dirty the toilet.


I think maybe guy can use this to help them to aim:Or
the public toilet should provide a bottle for those who need it.


Or using this will be most accurate?


I'm just so curious how you guys urinate while trying to maintain the cleanliness of the toilet...

hahah...

this is a crazy post.

What make a good teacher?

Found this article:

by Laura Greene, Augustana College
from "The National Teaching & Learning FORUM"
Volume 14, Number 2, February 2005
I sometimes think that students must feel as though they live in a world of questions not their own. Teachers often provide students with questions for a reading assignment in advance ("Here are some questions I'd like you to think about for next Wednesday's reading"); even more regularly, they assign questions to be answered in papers or on tests. Reasonably enough, most students conclude that it is the teacher's job to ask, and their job to answer. And if they get the answer right, they've learned something.

Most of us who teach make pretty different assumptions. We know that inquiry lies at the heart of every academic endeavor. The best professors don't want to teach their students the "facts" of the discipline so much as they want to help them construct knowledge by asking interesting questions within that discipline. We want our students to inquire - with energy, commitment, and passion.

Research shown that, by asking question, student's brain will be stimulated.

Questions asked by the teacher will guide a student into thinking and the student will be able to learn on his own for the rest of his life.

But, some students hate the teacher for asking questions on the topic they are learning.

They prefer the teacher to give them the answer directly.

What do you think? Should the teacher compromise or stick to the method that the teacher know best for the student?

Did you come across any good teacher in your life?

What is a good teacher to you?
