Sempurna

This song will be continuously played in my head as of 30/01/09

"I would still like to wish everyone, a Happy New Year to all of you. May Allah will always blessed us with the happiness that we all wish for every single day. May our hopes will not ever diminish by our everyday problems. May our faith in each other grow stronger each day even if things pushes us to let go of each other. May all our dreams come true even if our everyday struggle with life keeps us away from our dreams. Amin.."

My aunt forwarded me an e-mail which highlighted the calories the types of meal one consumes. Typical of me, I just moved it to my personal folder coz I get these types of e-mails like every single month. I get the same e-mails every month, when will people stop forwarding ah? I still getting e-mails which was already forwarded years ago. OoOk..back to my story. I was just about to move it when I saw this




No wonder I didnt lose weight! I for one never cared for the calories one meal has. However, these were the meals that I had consumed when I was in Bangkok *LOL* Despite all the walking and crawling (no lah..I think I crawled more when I went to Kuching last April. Wanted to be dramatic), I was so confident I had lose weight since we walked so much to finish all the floors of the HUGE shopping malls (atupun inda abis!) and I was so certain my fat evaporated coz Bangkok was steamy hot.


BEFORE anyone of you start saying no wonder I've gained (my family members does this), I had to eat these meals to stay alive in Bangkok. Halal food is easy to find though nowadays in Bangkok compared to years (not sure how many years, I have no official statistics ok) before. What I DO know is A&W is Halal back in 2002. Anyways, Sukhumvit Road is lined up with Halal restaurants which specialises in arabic and middle eastern food. Yup, Kebab, Nasi Briyani, Nan..the list goes on. With us having no breakfast at all and zoom towards various locations, we are all hungry the time we arrived at the restaurant so we ended up eating a lot at a sitting. Try being deprived of breakfast and you'll know how we feel. We ate breakfast,lunch and for dinner also at one sitting haha


Yes yes.. Nasi Briyani Ayam (chicken), Nasi Briyani Kambing (Lamb), Garlic Nan, Grilled Chicken and Durian was eaten by us almost everyday during our 6-day stay. For drinks, we drank fresh coconut juice everyday! My biggest frustation was knowing A&W's location during the last two hours before we had to go to the airport. We were so tired of eating Middle Eastern & Arabic Food everyday that I had no appetite eventhough I was hungry.. so to A&W Thailand, I'll be back to eat you! To Durian Monthong and fresh Coconut juice, I miss you

As we were walking around Chatuchak Market in Bangkok, we were surprised to see Teh Tarik (literally Pulled Tea) or as the Thai's call it 'Tae Ta Re' (notice the resemblance?) in Bangkok! The guy proudly pulled tea as people surround him watched in awe, including me of course. Well actually I was still more surprised how there's Teh Tarik in Chatuchak Market hehe Saw a guy gave a thumbs up after he quench his thirst with Teh Tarik and was given a refill as a friendly gesture by the vendor.

Teh Tarik are also very well known in Malaysia as they have competitions to crown the Best Teh Tarik master. Various methods where dancing and tricks are done while pulling tea which can be very entertaining. I can't imagine how much practice they would have to go through to master different acts. Teh Tarik are also available in Brunei at various coffee shops but I am not sure which shop offers the best Teh Tarik you can find here. I myself, prefer Ice Teh C (Milk Tea) compared to Teh Tarik. Teh Tarik is milk tea but pulled, get it? Enjoy the video

*Had to compromise the quality of the video and convert it to mp4 format or else it would take me forever to upload it
