Dumpling Aunty

There is this yong tau fu restaurant that my family and i frequent at Ampang. Its a famous restaurant operated for more than three decade by two generations.

.

Besides the yummy food which always scribble in my memory. There is an "infamous" dumpling aunty who draws a more vivid memory.

.

She's a regular dumpling seller at the shop. She walks around every table with a tray of dumpling in hand. Although i don't always buy from table-to-table seller. However if its an old grandma or grandpa selling, i would support most of the time.

.

.

But not for this dumpling aunty.

.

I remembered there was once she showed us an angry frowning face when we rejected to buy her dumpling. I was taken aback. At first,she aprroached our table with a very smilley face but when we said "No, next time perhaps". Her facial expression changed immediately. IMMEDIATELY!

.

It makes me think. How many poker face have i seen today or perhaps everyday??

Polishing Ring

Last week, my boyfriend and i sent our rings for polishing. It is an annual complimentary polish service from the shop we bought our rings.

.

Its not engagement ring. Its not wedding ring. Just a gift we bought out of persuasion from friends. I know it sounds odd. Its a story for another day =)

.

I love to resemble our relationship with the amount of scratches on the ring. Similar to the multiple disagreement and love-hate situations and "i'm not talking to you" situations. Mostly i initiated =D

.

.

The difference is we got over it quite immediately. We did not wait long to clear our disagreements like we waited for a year to polish the ring.

.

Most of the time, we have it done on the day itself. Latest, the very next morning we both fresh awake with our cleared mind.

.

I love the frank and honest way we communicate. We could just voice our dislike directly with each other and we both could accept it with an open mind.

.

Because we both understand no matter how much disagreement we may have, its just a matter of perspective and differences in thinking.

.

And we both understand love is more than saying i love you. Its about complimenting and tolerating.

.

What makes it even better... He tolerate me more than i do in return =p

Alor Gajah

On the 29th day of February i was working at Malacca with my bf. We were talking about living in town and living in city

He suggested that perhaps we should live in town as he is seriously sick of the jams, crams and nonsense in the city. When he made this statement, i hesitated for a little in mind.

What running in my brain are boring days with no malls, not many friends around and etc. Guess its not common when we talk about leaving our comfort zone and starting brand new else where.

In Alor Gajah, the town we were at was totally entertainment-LESS i can say. The only mall around is Tesco.

Though i love grocery shopping but i don't want it to be the only agenda in my shopping list.

Anyway, after the 4th day being in town, i like it a little more. There are a few things i notice in a small town.

1. No ipad but Greetings
Bf and i were having breakfast at a stall by the road side. I noticed somehow at point of times, the patrons would be greeting when the arrive.

Its a gesture i don't get to see often in KL.

There isn't ipad or smart phones on the table. One of the act i disagree the most is to have a kid sit still by giving the kid ipad or phones. That's not the way to educate kids, parents!

2. Better environment
Ohh... the shop i packed my lunch use paper box instead of polystyrene box. I love them! I don't think cost concern KL-ians do this. Or to be fair, i've just not seen any before.



Its recyclable. Its some move we should do on top of protesting bout Lynas. I believe every single move affect the well being of our earth. I do protect our earth too.

I recycle all recyclable goods at home which includes toilet rolls cardboard, toothpaste/tissue box, catalogues/newspaper/paper bills/ aluminium cans
