A lovely day with my family....

Hi people,how's your new semester????Well,its been two weeks since my holidays ended and my degree started... Year 1 degree is quite different as the subjects that we learn are totally different with our foundation programme.. Degree is really the preparation for us to become a teacher.. Even the assignments also, we have to go the school and interview the students.. But, I think I am quite interested in my Linguistic assignment and this is the first time I spend my freaking RM 25, buying the activity books for the my subject-to-be... *such a miracle* Zalia said, how could I spend so much during our "peak time"... For your infomation, we haven't get our allowance. So, most of us are already penniless now.. But when I look at the activity books, all are like not bad and I really have no idea whether which one suits me...So, I just grabbed all and therefore it costs me freaking 25 bucks...
The books that I prepare for my subject-to-be...Hopefully it suits them... Seriously, I have no idea with current primary school's syllabus...
Bought these 2 very chio leopard print document holder...like it so much, only RM 1.30..*affordable*
Just got the form from Macquarie University last 2 days, it is the form for us to do our student card. So, we could access to Macquarie University's library by using the ID card.. This means that the "tough road" is waiting for me.. And just like what Ms. Yeoh says, it's time for me to really think of why am I here...Am I suitable enough to be a teacher??I think I really have to think properly coz I am using the public's money and this course costs almost half million... And hopefully I could fulfill the government's request >>be a quality teacher which produces the better quality students...I think I still need to put on lotsa of efforts to improve myself in order to reach this target... *It's time to improve myself* Go, Tang Lee Yin...

If you switch on you radio, you would listen lotsa Chinese New Year song already...OMG,Chinse New Year is just around the corner....Wee, its time to shop for new clothes...and not to forget, getting ANGPAU soon.....Hohohoh, getting money again... Besides this, this is also the time for the aunties to make the "kuih" for Chinese New Year..and this is the purpose that I came back to my howetown yesterday..My mum wants to make "kuih kapit" Does it call kuih kapit or kuih kepit or kuih sepit??? Aiya, whatever "pit" la..as long as it is delicious and it is edible... It's quite difficult to explain the process, let the photos explain it...
The women in Tang Family... don't think that I didn't help my mum, I did help her k...
I fold the kuih until my fingers got blister already... * what a big sacrifice* ..lol...
My eldest sis-in-law was holding the failed one... don't be misunderstanding and thought that it looks so ugly...
If you want to marry to a good guy... Find a guy like him, willing to share the women's chores...*thumbs up*
and where's my father????
Well, he likes to be the manager+ quality control+supervisor....Don't think that he knows nothing, he actually knows how to make kuih kapit as well...But, he has already naik pangkat..become supervisor now,hahahahaha...lol

It is quite happy because all of us sit together and chit chat with each other and the ladies...of course gossip again...This time, my mum is included,mum don't gossip too much,no good... I think it is a good thing if the young generation involves in this kind of stuff. This is because, nowadays almost all young people do not know how to make this kind of stuffs anymore.. In order to prevent these skills from "extinct", the young generation must involve and learn it...This has actually made the bond between us become stronger and also it does help to "reduce" the yawning gap between the old generation and the young generation... It's a good thing!!!!! Must practice it...

"The making of kuih kepit" finished at around 3 something in the afternoon and we cleaned up all the stuffs... It was almost 4pm, we rest for awhile,bathed, watched tv.... and my father says he is going to bring us out for dinner as a reward to us... *yeah*

We went to a Thai restaurant at somewhere in my hometown named Mae Salong... The restaurant is located at quite a kampung place, we have to turn here and there and finally we reached there... The decoration of the restaurant is really very nice... It is a bit thailand + balinese style...
The entrance of the restaurant....
I didn't bluff you...Seriously, the decoration is very nice.... I think this small tiny pic couldn't show how beautiful it is...you have to experience it yourselves...

I like the deco very much... It is an ideal place for you, if you want to hold a gathering with your friends...They have an air conditioned Karaoke room as well....You can sing in that room the whole day like no one's business if you want to...But,make sure your singing is ok la..don't torture other people's ear....It's a sin,hahahahahaha.....
Sometimes it is quite embarrass if your children run here and there in the restaurant.. and you as the parents would yell at your children like the crazy one,especially women..like siao cha bo,jagalah image sikit...quite pai seh lo, right..... for sure, you will not have this problem in this restaurant...they provide playground for children...and look at that, it's made of wood...not plastic!!!! so environmentalist....hohoho
If you do not have the experience of eating in an "atap house" under the coconut trees like the kampung feel.... You can experience it at Mae Salong too...
Cute Koi in the pool....
The restaurant is still new, less than one month..so, the toilet is still new and clean..but after 3 months???no idea....they have plants in the toilet also....yo, go greenn....

They even have souvenir shop which sells the products made of coconut shell...and all of the products are made in Thailand... so blur,*my poor skill*

They sell the wood furniture also....erm, we had sacrificed so many trees here....It promotes logging too...hmm, no good!!!!!
I think I crap too much, let's talk about the food...

Tom Yam is my love..... and it was super nice...spicy enough, sour enough, just the quantity not enough...it's not enough for my greedy stomach....not only the tomyam, but all the dishes....does it look tantalizing????

and what drink suits thai cuisine the best??? of course coconut juice!!!!!! *yummy*
*but if I am to compare it with another thai restaurant in butterworth>>Khun Thai... I still prefer Khun Thai...The dishes at Khun Thai are much nicer than Mae Salong one... and I think Khun Thai is the pure thai cuisine lo...this one...not so.. personal opinion, no offense...*

Mae Salong plants their own vege as well, I think they just plucked it and cook for the customer... wa, so back to nature feel.... Good, go greennnn again....

*forgot to mention that car parks are provided and it is free of charge...with some Indian men look after your car as well...So, no "no-place-to-park-problem"...* I think the amount of the cars half already shown how popular this restaurant is.... the cars in this photo is just have of it only...

Mae Salong is quite an ideal place for you to have a gathering...can consider it and the food is Halal,no pork!!!! *if I am not mistaken*... The food is not bad but it is too few lo..I'd given the feedback to them just now, hopefully they could change it...The environment is not bad, but it would be nicer if they add some essential oil...nice scent.... hmm, I know I am a fussy customer..but, this is my feedback...and customer is always right k....

Well, I guess that's all for today...It is quite a long post... A lovely day with my family members... Such a long time that we have not been going out to dinner like this...although it is not very nice food...but for me, it is the best!!!! I like it...I also hope that we can always go out like this...but too bad, big bro and sis weren't there..else it would be PERFECT!!!! Hopefully next time, everyone is in the picture.... See you till I blog again... Tata...*loves and kisses*

nitez peeps...
