Ok, its mother's birthday, normally, we don't celebrate but i wonder why this year i feel like i should. Maybe i feel like i've not being a good son after all T^T. Well, what ever, it was thursday, i took leave and i surprise her for not going to work because normally she went to hiking early in the morning.

It was soooooooooooo hot that thursday after a cold morning, we have a droughty afternoon....

Begin the story of my fatty face, its getting fatter and bigger everyday and i'm glad girlfriend is still as pretty as always :) see how big and far can i go before i really going back to the college look. (possible??)

ok, arrive at queensbay finally, surprisingly, a lot people but no need to que like last time. Well when i saw that packet of tissue, i feel like being forcely to pay for that, and i'm not feeling so good about it.

Every one think its complimentary.... well, every one knows the truth = .= RM2 for this freaking small potion of ground nuts, terrible.... mother starts to complain about it after she saw the resit, we'll get to this later.

A seriously friendly waiter who wears red, he was so friendly until he offer himself to help me took this photo. Well, why not? But one thing i feel like he is pro, because he even teach me how to use DSLR, he say i should set 200 ISO is enough. (he din't know i purposely put iso 400 for him due to i scare of camera shake) Then he teach me to use F 1/60 , i was so surprise.... and wonder, what is F 1/60? den only i realise he wan to say shutter speed 1/60, how cute... and he some more say " don tell others that i teach u.....".

Well, i'm not laughing at him but i think i should share this, because due to his friendly-ness. But one thing, i feel that he should polish up his photography knowledge before he go confuse on others.

We order quite a lot of foods, jus enough for 4 :)
i know this meal is going to cost a lot, so i ate a packet of economy rice before i went queensbay :D HELL YEA~
