follow me on tweet!Case 6:
An ex-colleague of mine is actually a then-colleague of my current colleague some eons years ago. (Note: I am attached to the same company)
Perhaps October is a good month for God to make us realize intensely just how small the world is, or how freaky it is that almost everyone knows someone who knows that somebody… Or maybe it’s just facebook trying to show its power.
Here are some examples (not in chronological order):
Case 1:
A colleague of mine actually knew a friend of mine whom I have known since uni days! Would never have thought they knew each other.
Case 2:
The boyfriend of a colleague of mine is actually the high school friend of my university friend cum housemate of 2 years.
Case 3:
A new found friend of mine (who is friend of friend of my colleague’s boyfriend who is the high school friend of my university friend cum housemate of 2 years, aka Case 2) is actually the sister of the boyfriend of my ex-colleague.
Case 4:
Another friend of mine is actually the brother of the husband of my another ex-colleague.
Case 5:
A random ang-mo guy who so happened sat next to Xann and me at the cafe at Zoo Negara actually studied the same course in the same university as me at almost the same period of time. (What is the probability?)
Note to self: My life seemed to evolve around my colleagues, my ex-colleagues, or my colleague’s friends, or my ex-colleague’s friends, or their friend’s friend. Sad, very sad.
Note to self 2: I’m beginning to think that the word ‘friend’ somehow look super wrong… The spelling I mean.
Couple weeks ago, actually a month or so ago I happened to stumble across the website for this cute, cosy, feminine little cafe called Bijou @ facebook. (It actually came from an invitation to go for a gathering for dateless people. I of course didn’t go with the gang!)
I like what I saw, so I dragged my aiya-lesbian partner kamjie to go with me to check out this place during mooncake festival. We sat at the alfresco area and although it was situated near some condominiums, it was quiet and when night fell, there was chirping of crickets and croaking of frogs/toads. Honestly I *miss* this nature orchestra where I used to hear during my kampung childhood times.
Anyway, back to the food, we ordered some steamed fish & roast duck. Both were delicious with a huge “D”! The drinks were so-so only… The price, a tad on the high side but hey, I LOVEEEE this place because the ambience is just way too nice!
I would have taken more pictures of Bijou because I love the interior (which I must admit inspired me to give my blog a facelift), however, the waitress wouldn’t allow me. :’(
By the way, they are nice enough to let us have mooncakes at their premises hohohoho~ So the service is A-OK! *winkz*
So How Do I Rate It?
Food? 4.0/5
Beverages? 3/5
Service? 4/5 (look, they have nappies in the ladies toilet! Then I was informed that nappies are expensive yo)
Price? 4/5 (kinda expensive)
Promotion? They have Mondays to Fridays drinks special
Address? Ground Floor, Damai Sari, Mont Kiara Damai, 3 Jalan Kiara 2, Mont Kiara, 50480 KL
Website? Get more info, including the map, at their website: http://www.bijou.com.my

Am feeling a little pink, fuchsia, purple… basically ladylike colour nowadays. (I think I’m going through a *major* change in myself… hmmphh)
It took me a longggggg time to search for all the pictures and arranged them just exactly the way i like it and then resize, resize, resize till it fits the screen. And then I have to choose the colour for all the rest so that it looks good. Pretty isn’t it? – Just like the owner! *bLek* I’m so proud of myself. Hohoho!
I think I forgot to mention what was all the grocery shopping for… BBQ AT HOME! Dad bought some hugggeeee prawns and scallops (both my favourite!) and there’s pork and mutton and dad’s prized sweet potato which he grew with his brothers (for fun, seriously… *sweat*).
I personally enjoyed the food a lot since there’s someone who’s doing the barbecuing, and there’s alcohol to be consumed! hahaha (freak alcoholic).
I accompanied my parents to grocery shopping today at the new Giant in Melaka. During the 1.5 hours time we pushed the trolley up down left right front and back of the supermarket; compared prices of the fish; admired the cut of the lamb shoulder; picked the reddest tomato; argued over vitagen and yakult; dicussed the benefits of oat & muesli; debated whether if wholemeal or multigrain bread contains more fibre; waited in line for peanut butter waffles; chose between arabian or columbian coffee beans; and met two of my parents’ couples friends who did almost exactly the same thing as us, except that they don’t have, within their near vincinity, an argumentative daughter who will sneakily slipped in her favourite vitagen into the trolley no matter what her mum says.
Makes me wonder, does happy grocery trips made up a harmonious marriage life?
Someone wasn’t supposed to drink. Someone was supposed to go on diet. Some other people though, are damned thirsty! Anyway, the lure of fermented barley juice is REALLLYYY tempting hence the 4 crazy people ended up at AllStars Cafe @ Mid Valley.
If it wasn’t Ann Chin who bought this… this… hedious snakes & ladder game, we weren’t be drinking FOUR JUGS OF BEER!!
dave, loony, ann & milk
And loony was sitting underneath a statue’s ASS unknowingly… That’s why she kept losing!! The courageous Dave who doesn’t believe in this so he changed seat with loony and drank 12 shots straight!! LOL!! So much for not believing.
A BIG FAT ASS
a closer look at the ass? anyone?
ann trying hard to concentrate…
