On 31.1.09, me and unclechan went to Kuala Kangsar for one day trip. This is a place where my mother grew up. Kuala Kangsar actually is only a small town with little tourist attraction.
If you ask me what is the famous food in Kuala Kangsar, sure i would shout : LAKSA!!!! The best ever!! *Thumb up* Everytime been to K.Kangsar, we sure cannot tahan the delicious Laksa at the Specific Stall. MUST eat it! MUST! This time, i thought to bring unclechan to have a try on it. In fact, he is a Laksa Lover, who always shouted Polo Ground Laksa is the BEST, who always act as professional eater and comment on the various Laksa he have tried. Unfortunately, this time he is tooo unlucky enough because the Laksa Stall is closed on the day we visited there. We are sooo disappointed. The worst thing is… we ate the WORST laksa and Cendol at another stall. 
Unclechan complaint non stop from the 1st bite to the end, like an old ah pek 
This is Polo ground Laksa which is promoted by Unclechan. After the 1st time i tried, it has been added into one of my top favorite food list. We are addicted in this. We eat even though it is rainy day. We purposely go there eat laksa instead of exercise. Unclechan even use this as a reward for me to accompany him jogging. =.=”
We have visited few places.
1. Muzium Diraja Perak.
This Museum is painted in Royal Perak Colour i.e. White, Yellow and Black. The attraction for this building is that NO NAIL is used in the process of construction.
2. Galeri Sultan Azlan Shah. The entrance fees are RM4 for Adult and RM2 for Children. ( We cheated the ticket seller (with innocent eye contact) that we are still studying and asked for student price without show any student card. Finally, we got student price i.e. RM2 per person only! hahaha. 
)
This place displays the history, background and collection of Sultan Azlan Shah. It includes various photo during Sultan schooling days, collection of Souvenir, Keris, Automobiles, graduation gown, trophies, The genealogy of the Perak Sultanate, the Royal Family etc.
There was an interesting event happened during this visit. It is…. WE MET SULTAN THERE!! The story is like this: while two soh poh and soh lou are busying took photo in front of the garden, SUDDENLY, few police car and a BMW with the car plate “ACB 1″ which we previously saw in the display at Sultan Vehicle Gallery, were drive in to the building!
Both kepochi are sooo curious and we spotted the REAL Sultan is sitting inside the car!! Oh NO.. Can’t believe that we are sooo lucky enough! 
Without any hesitation, we fast hand fast leg snapped a photo of Him to keep it as Evidence! HEHE. After Sultan walked into the building, both Kepochi are still not willing to leave and waiting outside under the extremely hot sun with lots of Extremely Lame Discussion. Like:-
“How about we follow at his back and see what is he doing inside loh??”
“Maybe he come back to take his belonging leh?? like…Condom??”
“Why don’t we bring Orange and greet Sultan Happy CNY??”
“Maybe Sultan see both of us are too cute and decided to take us as his kaizai kailui leh?Then, We may rich forever??”
“Why don’t we go forward and ask the policeman help us to take a photo together with the Sultan standing in between of us??So that we can print a 10R photo, frame it and hang it on the living hall in each of our home and show off to others??”
“Maybe sultan will give us angpao with RM10k leh??”
“No No, maybe Sultan give us an empty Cheque and we can fill in the amount as we like!Yeah!“
3. In the end, we leave the place and the Sultan is still not come out yet. Then, we proceed to the riverside i.e. Sg Kangsar.
This is a nice place for jogging, dating, friends gathering and family hang out. There are alot of Malay Food Stalls and Play Ground along the river. Both of us enjoyed the swing like a Old Big Baby. At the moment, we felt soo “YOUNG” and it has bring us back to 20years before when we was a child. HAHA.
这是童心未泯。乳臭味干。老还童。八十岁跳床的我们。
We end our journey at 4.30pm.
On 29/1/09, Perak has announced 3/2/09 (Tuesday) as state Public Holiday.
I am sooooo happy and busy to plan for the activity on that Public Holiday. I received a bad news on Monday when i have a conversation with colleague like:-

I super duper extremely fall in love with Pineapple Cookies! But due to its high selling price, most of the time i only see it and air liur meleleh without buying it. So, I have wanted to make Pineapple Cookies since long looong loooong time ago liao. I have obtained all the information from friends to colleague, searching online, refers to book, newspaper, magazine and TV show. And Today Finally i have taken one step forward to bake it myself! Ngek Ngek Ngek! Remember, its 100% ORIGINAL MAKE BY AUNTY LOH HERSELF without anyone helping! My mum so bad, she rather sit outside watching movie also don’t want to give me a hand! But nvm, she ALWAYS trust my baking skill. Furthermore, i don’t like people to disturb me when i am doing serious and important task!
So, share with u all the recipe again. KEKE.
The main Raw Materials for pineapple cookies of course must be PINEAPPLE! Pineapple paste plays a very important roles to the overall taste. And it is the most difficult part in the whole process. I have almost spent 5hours just to cook the paste! *Pengsan*
1. I used three pineapple.
2. Clean the skin. (Awwwwwwww….It is the most difficult part! My Energy, patient and attention all are being tested in this part! KNS! Next time must buy the already cleaned Pineapple, no matter how big different is the price! Since this is my 1st time to bake this cookies, i must show my sincerity by doing every step MYSELF 
)
3. Grated the pineapple. ( Some ppl may like to blend it. But i don’t like. It may become too creamy instead of crunchy)
4. Mix 3cm of Cinnamon Stick, 2 cloves and 1 tbsp lime juice into it.
5. Put 300g of sugar.
6. Cooked it with low fire (to prevent it from burning). Stir it every second until it is dry.
7. Ta Da! It is ready when it turns into golder brown colour and dry. Take it out and leave it cold. (KNS. I have spent almost 3 hours just to stand infront of the wok and stir it until dry! I think now my Right Arm got the Muscle like Popeye Sailorman edi! 
)
8. Now we have to prepare the ingredient for the crust pasty.
Ingredient needed:-
250g Butter
50g Icing sugar
360g Plain Flour
2 tbsp Custard Powder
1 Egg Yolk
1tsp Vanilla Essence
9. Mix all the ingredient all together to form a dough and leave it for 30Minutes.
10. There are many ways to shape the Pineapple cookies.
A) The first method with Heart Shape 
( my own creation)
Tips: Remember to glaze the cookies with beaten egg. (to make the cookies look shinning )
B) The 2nd method i.e. the most common way like what is selling outside. The roll shape.
Tips: Lightly cut some pattern on top of it to make it looks nice! KEKE.
11. Bake at 170 Celsius for about 20minutes until golden brown. Leave to cool before storing.
Chiang chiang Chiang! This is the overall cookies!
Awww…. this is really delicious from the bottom of my heart!!!! My youngest brother keeping curi makan when i am baking. This means that it is really nice loh! Otherwise he won’t continue to eat after the 1st piece. KEKE. Before i bake this, i used to steal the recipe tips from colleagues by asking this and that, and they used to gimme a respond like:-
” Arhem.. Ms Loh, u know baking 1 meh?”
“Are you serious? it is really difficult and complicated to bake 1, need alot of KUNGFU 1 woh!”
” Ms Loh, U know or not gah?? Don’t play play ah!”
=.=”"”
I promised to reserve a tin for them after cny come back to work. Guess what their respond?
“Ms Loh ah..there is two possibilities u will reserve for us:-
1st- U are really kind enough to keep a tin and not to forget give us a try.
2nd- The cookies are taste too bad. Nobody want to eat. No choice, u have to bring it into office and hoping we will help u to finish it.”
=.=”"”
Awww…..they have too little understanding and seriously lack of confident on me! I learn to bake with my mum since i was a little girl okey? The first time i bake myself without anyone helping is 13years old okey? I love baking okey? I am not 千金小姐 okey? I bake even well than my mum okey? (coz she is still stick with outdated recipe. hehe), I am the 2nd chef at home after my mum okey?
Anyone interested to try Aunty Loh’s brand homemade Pineapple Cookies? HAHA. Pls come to visit me during Chinese New Year la! Don’t forget Gimme Ang Pao woh! KEKE. But if u pantang to gimme angpao since u not yet marry, then u can “purposely” or “intentionally” lose in gambling and let me win CONTINUOUSLY la! muahahahha
Gong Xi Gong Xi, Ang Pao Na Lai ooooooiiiiiii!
This few days i am repeating to watch the most touching part in Super Idol singing contest through youtube. I can’t stop my tears rolling down when the contestant with her teary eye, explaining the experience of how she is being abandoned by her mother in the age of three 
The song, the lyric, the melody, her singing, her expression and her background, make me totally heart broken
To watch the video clip please click on the following link:-
I wish to have a home
I wish to have a home (Part II)
After the video, I feel myself is sooo lucky enough to have a “complete” and happy family. I grow healthy under the love, care and protection from parents, i get the best education from kindergarten to university, i do not have to worry about shelter, food and cloth, i have sufficient money to spend, i have the freedom to make my own decision etc. In the road of life, i am not alone because….i have them
Comparing to the contestant background, i am soo lucky that all of my siblings are able to stick together and grow up under a roof with lots of fun. Under the guidance of parent, we all now are grow up with self-discipline, well behaviour, successfully graduated from university, getting a good and stable job, having a caring partner and now its our duty to repay our parent for their hard work in bringing up us this – FOUR MONKEYS. (Except for my youngest brother who is still studying).
I am a person who is very stick to the home. I remember how tough it is when the 1st time i moved to KL far away from home ALONE, started my 4 years college life and learn to be independent. This is my very first time to leave home and I have took such a loooong time to adapt with the new environment without my family and friends companion. It is realllyy a veryy difficult time for me. For the first month in KL, I am very shame to tell that, i cried and cried, in phone, in bed and even in bathroom due to serious home sick. KEKE. I cried until the extent that my family hold a meeting to discuss whether have to discontinue my study in KL and ask me come back to continue study in Form 6. But after all, they come out with a solution that is not contact me for few weeks and force me to learn INDEPENDENT. This is actually work for me, because i slowly learn to enjoy college life after get to know a group of buddies come from different state I really could not imagine the day without my family. I can’t live without them 
(Luckily i did not give up my study in KL or else i could not get to know unclechan liao )
That time, i used to come back home quite frequently. I must thank to Unclechan who accompany me for my very first time balik kampung. I am soo thankful for his helping because to a road idiot like me, are sooo easy to get lost in a big city. Luckily, i found someone who is come from the same hometown and same school with me. This is very important because that time i need a strong belief that i am NOT ALONE in this strange city. Later on, we used to go back hometown togather and our “pure” friendship grow.
One of a sentence in the lyric:-
雖然你有家 什麼也不缺
為何看不見你露出笑臉
永遠都說沒有愛 整天不回家
I remember there was a time his father could not recognise his voice when he phone back home to ask someone to fetch him from Medan Kid. KEKE. My intuition immediately told me that, this “Bei Ka Zai” sure long time didn’t go back home already! Soo useless! Since then, from a pure friend starting point, i off and on will nag him the important to back home accompany family. Sometimes when i back hometown, sure i will ask him back togather. KEKE. Seems like my effort did not waste 
because now he know to come back home automatically to see see his parent and of course ME!
The purpose i post this entry is not to show off how good i am to have family and someone special as companion. There were soo many times people told me that not everyone also own a happy and stable family as mine. I have listened too many sad story from friends who are come from a broken family I feel sympathy to them but i just could not do anything other than borrowing my ear or shoulder for them whenever they are in need. I understand well their desire to have a complete and happy forever home.
For people who grow up in broken homes, remember that you are not alone and you actually can make something different of yourself by being cheerful, be brave and strong 
For those parent, please bear in mind that love and caring of both parents are essential for a healthy growth of a child. It can be understandable that two married people are unable to stay together for whatever reasons, however, is it the right for innocent children to become the victim of divorced and go through the painful? NO! Please don’t repeat the mistake as what the adults have did in the above video clip.
For those who did not go back home for a long looong time or even those who doesn’t like to stay at home, please go back home more often, please appreciate every single moment you spend with family. Honestly, I really hate those who see friends more important than family, those who leave their home (离家出走） after quarrel with parent This is such a irresponsible / immature behaviour and after all they will only make their parent upset They may not know there are soo many people around the world like the contestant are actually wish to have a perfect family like them.
Sometimes what our parent want is not the money or gift, but they need our accompanion, our love and care as what they have given us when we were child. Please show your love by going back home regularly and accompany them more often. You will know, you are actually the LUCKIEST person in the world
People will never know how special someone / something is until they leave / lost it. But maybe sometimes it’s important to leave, so they are given the chance to see how special that someone / something really is.
Share with you all the meaningful lyric.
我想要有个家
主唱 潘美辰
我想要有个家 一个不需要华丽的地方
在我疲倦的时候 我会想到它
我想要有个家 一个不需要多大的地方
在我受惊吓的时候 我才不会害怕
谁不会想要家 可是就有人没有它
脸上流着眼泪 只能自己轻轻擦
我好羡慕他 受伤后可以回家
而我只能孤单的 孤单的寻找我的家
虽然我失去了 温暖的家
但是我不会 轻易被墼垮
只要心中充满爱 就会被关怀
无法埋怨谁 一切只能靠自己
虽然我不再 渴望有奇迹
但是我知道 决不能放弃
伤痛不容许再等待 勇敢站起来
重建一个梦，重建一颗心， 让我重建一个家
