These few days i have a great time with unclechan. I must thanks him a lot for coming back to visit me although his assignment is not completed yet and need to be passed up on Monday. On the other hand, I felt sorry to him for unable to celebrate his birthday this year because I have been to Sarawak for business trip. In order to reduce my guiltiness, to express my thankfulness and to ganti back his Birthday disappointment, I have invited him for a lunch today before he go back to KL at 4pm. I didn’t treat him any special or expensive meal in classy restaurant. In fact, i only spent less than RM10 for his lunch and the venue is at a low class Dining Room in my home 
This was his first time to try my terrible and horrible dishes.
Now, I am going to share the Hakka sweet and sour chicken recipe for those who are interested. I have learned this from mum since primary school and My mum recipe is obtained from my grandma. Sweet and Sour chicken is one of the top listed favorite food in my family, especially my eldest brother.
Ingredient needed:
2 drumstick
5 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon vinegar
2 tablespoon black sauce
4 dried chilli
Step:-
1. Clean the drumstick, removed its skin and fat and cut it into small pieces.
2. Add in sugar and vinegar into the chicken and stir well.
3. Add in Black Soy Sauce and mix it.
4. Add in Dried Chili Padi and marinate the chicken for 5 – 10 minutes. ( the longer of marinate time, better the taste)
5. After that, pour the marinated chicken into a pot and cooked it with extremely low fire.
6. Remember to stir the chicken off and on, because it is very easy to get Hangus.
7. When the chicken is completely cooked (about 35minutes), it is ready to serve. Dang Dang, this is Sweet and Sour Chicken!(Sad, the only picture taken is soo blur T.T)
Other than this sweet and sour chicken, i also served other dishes and beverage as well such as steamed egg, ABC Soup and my company product- Enchante alcohol beverage. I have used 2 hour to prepare this lunch and we only used 20 minutes to finish the food. I am so happy that Uncle Chan had finished 2 plates of rice and awarded me with 2 thumbs up 
Hoping he doesn’t mind for this cheap cheap and so so home cook lunch la.

Success is more than mere professional trainings, degrees, diplomas
and technical skills. The real success reaches your intrinsic worth,
the real you-YOUR PERSONALITY. Your personality gives direction to
your life and is very much a deciding factor for accomplishing
success.
Life is what you make it and & the task of improving ones
personality is a lifetime project involving the development of mind,
heart and soul. A person should be honest and impartial while
examining oneself. If he overlooks his shortcomings, he will wallow
in them while successful people believe in overcoming them.
Instead of simply posing a straight approval to what one sees, hears
and reads without analyzing it, one should do his own thinking by
activating his dormant powers. One should challenge his fears. One
needs to be alert to opportunities and never stop striving to
improve oneself. Dissatisfaction is an encouraging sign. One can
make his personality felt by being receptive and never being
contented with the thoughts he is thinking and the deeds he is doing.
Good voice,with certainty is an asset. Voice reveals ones
personality and the speech gives out ones character. Words have the
power to humble all manifestations. The art of conversation can be
developed by being constructive and by being an alive witness to
what is happening around you.
One of the vital ingredients of a likeable personality is courtesy.
Its a well proportioned mixture of tolerance, kindness,
thoughtfulness, respectfulness and a considerate behavior.
Perseverance, too , equipped with poise brings success.To accomplish
anything, one should be persistent, optimistic and should learn self
reliance.A NEVER DIE ATTITUDE is what makes one immune to the
defeats. Defeats are not really defeats when people possess poise.
When we accept all the happiness showered by God with full grace and
rejoice,one should also accept the troubles and moments of grief
impartially without wailing and blaming destiny for it.People who do
so accept life fully and never waste their time and energy in fret
and fume. They are never at loss and inspire confidence.
Last, but not the least, a good character adds stars to ones
personality. Its a sum total of ones distinctive and moral qualities
which may include sincerity, honesty, reliability, tolerance and
generosity. One should never let his ethics suffer to attain success
as the charm is all ruined and success is but a mechanical event.
All these qualities along with a neat appearance makes one a winning
personality, a person who is able to carry out successful personal
and professional relationships. When the best is given, the best
comes back to you.
Not everyone eat Petai because of its bad smell, but for people who like it, they say Petai “Yummy!”. It is the same like why western people doesn’t like Durian while Asian People can’t live without it. Not to say so far away, my home already have a very good example to show the difference. My eldest and youngest brother hate Durian and Petai very much, while we love it very much.Keke. There were few times my mother offers RM50 for each of them to eat a piece of Durian or Petai, but, they just refuse it without any hesitation. They said, it just like people eat “shit”. Haha.
Actually Petai is very healthy for us. Some research showed that Petai contain a type of Protein that known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier! It also stimulate the production of hemoglobin in blood, reduce the blood pressure & stroke, boost brain power, overcome constipation, relief heatrburn etc. It also can be used externally. Before reaching for insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of petai skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling, irritation and itchiness.
When compare it to an apple, it has 4x protein, 2x carbohydrates, 5x vitamin A & iron, 3x Phosphorus and 2x others vitamins & Minerals. Since Petai is so healthy and help us to prevent substainal number of illness, so, for those who doesn’t like Petai must have a try on it and make it a MUST to add in our daily diet.
