I woke up early this morning to send my wife to work as I am not working. Later of the day will need to pick her up after work. Now my current job is a full time driver and I enjoyed it very much. :)
After sending my wife to work, I came home and changed into my jogging suit. It is really been a long long time I didn't do exercise in such an early morning. Maybe since my school days...Times really fly.
I went to the park near my house to jog. The weather is still cooling at that time. Nice for a morning jog. One thing I found funny is that the people jog in the morning here are doing the laps in clockwise direction. I jog all the time in the afternoon and people are doing the laps in anti clockwise. At first I am not used to it as everything seems to be going in reverse direction. After two three laps, I kind of getting use to it. Maybe it is just like our life, sometimes we only see things in one direction and never try to see it from another direction. Do you drive a same path everyday and never try other path that will get you to the same destination? Maybe you will get surprises along the way.
After I done my laps and cooling down myself, I need to cut it short as raindrops keep falling on my head~ I am humming BJ Thomas's oldies while I walk back to my house. Morning rains are always chilling and nice!

Today is my last day at my current company. Yes! I decided to make a change after thinking over and over again. I need to take a step further. If you read my previous post you will know that I went for interview in a company not long ago. At that time, I do not hope much from it. But who knows, they called me for a second interview after sometime. After the second interview, it is decision time and everything just happened so fast. The new company is very efficient and they process everything very fast which I really impressed. I got the letter from them after 3 days of the first interview.
I have been working in the current company for great six years and it is my first job. I learned a lot and made a bunch of good friends working here. I do met a great mentor over here in this company. He taught me a lot and I really want to thank him for everything. If you ask me one thing that I will miss this company, it is the friends over here.
I will be starting to work on Dec 09. The new job scope is nothing like what I did in the previous company. But I will try my best to work out the best!
Next few weeks are my holidays! Yeah, I do really need a holiday before start work again!

Last week went to Mitsu Shabu Shabu for dinner with my wife. This Mitsu Shabu Shabu last time is known as Mitsu Tea House (中华茶楼) located in Pedada behind Rejang Medical Center. I hope I didn't get the name wrong as this restaurant just changed the name of it and boss.
We had a bad experience last time with Mitsu Tea House where the food is not fresh and taste lousy. Now they changed the boss and we have confidence for this new boss as this new boss is the famous Foochow Lane Shabu Shabu Japanese Hotpot boss. Me and my wife like the Shabu Shabu in Foochow Lane but the place is always crowded and parking is a pain in the ass in that vicinity. Now the new place in Pedada serves the same stuff. Parking and table is definitely more over there in the new place.
Ok. Enough for the history. Let see what I ate that night. We opted for a lamb steamboat as this is our favourite. The serving time is ok and the steamboat ingredients are on the table after 7 minutes.
This is the dip sauce for the steamboat. My wife like it very much and she always get two of this in a row.
The thin slices of red yummy lamb. You just need to dip this into the steamboat for a minute and it will be cooked. The fresh red lamb will turn into grey meat after a minute in the hot pot. Dip it with the special sauce...yummy!
The steamy hot pot boiling. Can't wait for it to boil quickly so that I can throw everything in quickly. We are drooling already while the soup in the pot is heating up.
Everything is in! Haha! They specially divide the pot into two so that you can choose two type of soup for your steamboat. Nice. My side is with egg in the soup and my wife's hot pot is without egg. She doesn't like to put egg inside the soup but she like to put vinegar. She likes the soup to be a bit sour in that way.
After 5 minutes, it is ready to eat. Look at the nice soup with all the vegetables, eggs, bean curd, lamb...etc, drooling? :P
This is the pan fried dumpling that we will order everytime. We always order the Spinach flavour dumpling in the old Shabu Shabu but the new place seems to miss that in the menu. We opted for this one as above. It tastes very nice also.
The filling inside of the dumpling. Tender minced meat and vegetable. Dip this with the vinegar and ginger will be best! Simply delicious.
The total damage for the night with drinks is only RM24.70. Cheap? We will sure go back to that place again.

I went to MAS Corner Cafe in Kampung Nyabor a few times with my colleague and family for the laksa there. This coffee shop is located in town and at the corner lot of the shoplots where MAS office is located last time. I guess this is how they get the name. But it moved to Kampung Nyabor many years ago. Last time MAS Corner Cafe is famous with the fish noodles and fried yellow noodles. The stall moved to a new place and opened a coffee shop. From stall to coffee shop, I guess they really made money from the stall already.
Now MAS corner is not so crowded as last time. It is really difficult to find a table in the coffee shop last time. You can get a table very easily now.
Now I go to this coffee shop for the Halal laksa and kampua mee. If you don't know kampua mee, you can read my previous post on kampua mee here and here.
This is the halal kampua mee topped with slices of chicken meat. The taste of the kampua mee is not bad. I like it as it is dry enough.
This is the laksa which cost RM3.50. The taste of the laksa is nice. It is spicy enough for my taste. But for those who cannot take too spicy food, better stay away from this. The soup is really so laksa. Hehe. Not easy to get one with this type of taste already.
Laksa, anyone?

I guess many must wonder what is L = 7? You will understand why my title post after you sees the photo below.
Look at the car number plate of this kancil. It supposes to read QSL but instead of L, they use digit 7 upside down as L.
I was like, do L equal to 7? Is it the mistake of the car accessories shop or the owner itself use the 7 to substitute the L? How much is an L letter cost you? Or they are environmentalist that likes to save and recycle things?
Really funny when I saw this. At first I thought my eye sight is bad. But look clearly, it is really 7 upside down. Haha!
Do you know that Sarawak's car plate number start with Q? Many of my friends in West Malaysia didn't know car number plate that start with Q is from Sarawak not until I tell them.
