Do not be deceived...

This can also be used as a weapon for 'si lai' against rapist.

Now let me see a show of hands that says this is a (at this point of time, i wanted to call it 'nangka' and thank God for the revelation and He bring to my mind that 'nangka' is also known as jack's fruit jackfruit) jackfruit. What about durian? What about honeydew? (if you raise your hand for 'honeydew', i suggest you either take more walks to fruits stalls or go back to your primary school and ask your teacher. you have my permission to print this picture to show him/ her)

If you raised your hands for any of the 3 suggestions, you are WRONG! this is actually a... ?? (at this point of time, i picked up my cellphone to call my lovely gf to ask her as she is the one who supplied me the picture and all the info which i'm about to blog) it's called buah talk talak. This cute little thing looks like durian superficially but taste like nangka with a little sourish tangy feeling (like soursop i guess). I have never seen this fruit in Penang or KL before. My wonderful gf got it from Sabah (she's there to climb Mt KK and she made it!! woohoo..!!).

Unlike durians where you are able to keep it in the fridge even after opening for a week and stink the whole house! this buah talak only able to tahan for 3-4 days after 'seeing' light. 2 things i find it fascinating is 1) the spikes and 2) how you know when it's ripe and good to eat

1) the spikes. from this picture you can see that it's like durian..pointy! but it's not. it's actually very soft like rubber. it's like those rubber toys you get at the flee market :)
2) how you know when it's ripe and good to eat. for durian, people normally smell the ass bottom of it. for watermelon, people 'tiak' or flick it to see how juicy it is. but for this..you press it! if it's ripe and good to eat, after pressing it, it will 'come back up' (what's the proper word for it?? :p). if it's not ripe, it won't even sink it when you press it.

interesting isn't it?? :) there you have it! so do not be deceive by its look. just like shades, he might appear to be fit but.... :/ no comments!

here's a poem dedicated to Shades :)
Shades is cool
But he is soft
Shade's always drool
When his ego waft!
(don't ask me why but..just for fun lo ;p)

wah...

wah..almost 2 weeks liau lo since i last blogged :) been quite busy lately to blog la. got assignments and office work is pouring in. i do have something to blog though but it really requires time and effort la..since my blog is a Fruit basket case :) i shall live up to it la...

stay tuned...

Chinese...smart or cunning? part 1...

WARNING! i hope this blog entry won't often any homo sapiens from anywhere in the world :) it's meant for a laugh only (if you find it funny) and if not, just click the 'x' button of this window.

Chinese..are they smart or just cunning? when i say 'chinese' i mean...China citizens and also chinese race in general. ok, why do i say that? btw, i'm a chinese (with small 'c') myself..have to say this early so i won't be accussed of racism :) yup, why leh? yesterday night as i sat in front of the dumb black box, i saw this movie promo advertisement from a Hong Kong production company. The movie title is...'Yesterday Once More' or something like that la..main actor is Andy Lau and main actress is Sammi Cheng. Even only watching the promo for like 15 secs..i am already able to tell that the director got the whole movie idea from Mr & Mrs Smith. i'm assuming here that Mr & Mrs Smith are original idea la :)

so that triggered it. i thought to myself..China is probably 1 country that produces the most imitation stuff, Malaysian chinese are probably those big brains behind those PC burning pirated DVDs and VCDs (it always amuse me how they are able to produce thousands of copy of WWE pay-per-view that was aired in the morning and available in the market by the same night) and only Malaysian chinese are smart? cunning? enough to bring imitation goods locally to overseas and sell it (i heard some even sell it over e-bay :p)

hhmm..of this whole this is general and not all Chinese or chinese are like that. as i have mentioned earlier, is just meant for you to think about and laugh (if it's funny). Why i put part 1 to it..well, i won't know if i will stumble upon any other idea that can be continued from here :)

so..Chinese (chinese) are like...can't think of any fruits to represent..just like no suitable words can describe them.

tak da 'mood' la

:/ nowadays not much 'mood' to blog la. also partly due to busy schedule la. had a hectic week..the week before last and last..now this week..course starts again :) i'm smiling becoz i like going back to seminary. some how it keeps me going and thinking. though is really going to be tired with the assignments and readings coming but growing in the knowledge of God is 'never' tiring..well, never as in..you won't get sick of it la..

anyway, i would like to pull back my 'hatred' for 'loong guo' becoz yesterday i tasted a cold and sweet 1 :) wah! it's so much better than kiwi coz 1) it's not as messy 2) the fruit is firmer :) wonderful!

lesson learned! Never make a quick conclusion or judgement :) or you will be sorry later...in this case for me, thank God is just fruits..

This is bad..

why? because blogging has becoem some what a pressure to me :/ thanks to those numbskulls people who previously pressured me to blog often if not i won't be part of the blogring or what not :/

nowadays, if i go by 1 day without blogging i'll be like telling myself and questioning if i should blog or not..don't think this is right la :( blogging should be done in joy..it should be something joyous and fun..well, at least for me :)

so i asked myself..what should i blog when i've got nothing to blog? most of the time i only blog about issues or any happenings, which to me, worth to mention..then i realise. wah! my life like quiet empty ar..nothing 'special' 1 ar?! no happenings 1 meh?! hhmm...not that sad i hope..i'd love to think more of like i don't pay much attention to life and it's surroundings. i don't really enjoy the 'journey' but only looking to the 'destination'..if you know what i mean :)

i guess i should slow down in life and learn to 'enjoy' the cool breeze of wind that hits again your face..wait! eeeww..i don't want to sound too poetic :p blek! i guess i need to take life easier :)

let's see how much i cna blog about on that :) see y'all!

good blog..no comments :(

not mine though (but i wish you can say that bout mine :p) sometimes i'll just check my own blog just to see if there's any new comments or not but am often disappointed :) haha..well, but as i look at other ppl's blog..there's not much comments too BUT the diff. is theirs really got 'liau~' ('isi' or content or bascially good stuff la..) 1 leh...

so conclusion..no comments for you doesn't mean your blog no body read or not nice la :) but deep down i know you are still hungering for comments eh..
