Tet. 
Yes, you didn't read wrong.

Not Ted the dirty talking teddy bear, 
nor Tit the most interesting part of a woman!

After so many complaints about my CPU which I've tried to revived numerous time,
I've finally got it replaced - with a HP's CPU I named Tet.

Saw Oblivion recently? 
Starring Tom Cruise and Morgan Freeman.

Those who haven't seen it...

*SPOILER ALERT!!!*
tet alien station


The Tet is somewhat an 
alien mother ship figure in a giant triangular station on the sky.

oblivion tom cruise


At the beginning of the movie, Tet seemed like the most brilliant thing an alien would create.
Its technology which leaves us imagine if-this-could-be-in-our-future-era thingy.

Wanting my CPU to be my brain - executing stuffz for me - it's gonna be my Tet.

Nonetheless... whose who watched Oblivion may remember the unexpectedly lousy ending.

The Tet is so brilliant that it can detect that Jack (played by Tom Cruise) is lying 
from his heartbeat and tone of voice.

But... could not detect the nuclear bomb he brought with him
that eventually destroyed The Tet so easily?

Although there are alot of question marks circling my head after the movie,
it's overall a not-bad movie... can go watch larhhh... 

Am installing whatever anti-virus softwares I can find now. 
My Tet is gonna die like that movie!!!


 Tet - "Are you an effective team?"
Joyce & HP- "Hell yeah we are!!!"

Fee Fye Fo Fum,
Ask not whence the thunder comes,
Ask not where the flocks have gone,
Or why the birds have ceased their song.
On your way home, tarry not over long….




Watched Jack the Giant Slayer last weekend.

Interesting remake of the original Jack & The Beanstalk.

Handsome actor and actress.
My eyes was affixed looking at the Princess that I felt like kissing her.
Seriously, Eleanor Tomlinson is awesome looking in this movie!

It was a two hour movie,
but felt longer sitting in there,
perhaps because the battle just went on and on,
could not find time to catch my breath.

And the storyline is as per expected.
Jack found some beans,
did what he was told not to,
beans grew to tall beanstalk,
giant came down,
trying to eat all the human they can find,
Jack kill the giants,
Jack save the day,
Jack save Princess in distress,
Jack marry Princess.

Nevertheless, it was a nice movie to watch.

Thanks Vince for the movie passes!!!

My mind was floating the entire day at work.


And I was thankful that I arrived at the office in one piece as
I was trying hard to keep my eyes open while driving.
I kinda ignored the small print 'DROWSY' on the cough medicine
and had it at home before heading to work.


I've been down with sore throat and cough for the fifth day now.
I had Lexie to 'lay lay' with me for the past two days of resting at home.
She's such a darling.


Lexie and Queen Queen (Kenny's schnauzer - the one that bit me)


Recently I've been seeing Barry everyday after he off work!
We'll go shopping.. Grab some groceries..
Do our Christmas shopping.. Take photos of food... people... us...
I'll be telling him what I feel like eating, and he'll bring me around to satisfy my cravings..
And if i'm not fit to go out, he'll deliver it to my doorstep.
Is he coming tonight?!! Hehehe...

Was craving for Big Breakfast at Marmalade Bangsar, but it's too far.
Dome @ Subang Parade

Angel invited me for Kenny's birthday dinner.
Such warm and wonderful Yap family.. :)

And yay! Vince is coming back from Seoul tomorrow!
I miss him.. *blush*
....wondering what pressies he gotten me?!
He said he got me two.... two....
(obviously he's using Russell Peters indian accent in this!)

Vince went to Korea and this is the only photo he Whatsapp me! Not fair!!! :(

There's alot of good movies in the cinema recently.
Didn't get to watch all of it.
Always missed the showtime and ended up watching cartoon.



Wreck It Ralph was unexpectedly good!
Beginning, climax, ending = it all blended well.
I guess Rachel, Fei darl and I enjoyed it.
Vince fell asleep.
SWT  >.<"'


It's Alicia's birthday today!
Sent her a photo of me wearing a party hat, just for her..
Wanted so much to celebrate this special day with Alicia..
But it's not advisable to get near to her now when I'm down with flu.


Looking pale and squatting beside the photocopier is
definitely not gonna bring up the color in me.
Gotta admit that this is one unattractive e-bday card!


Nevertheless... happy birthday my dearieee~~~
(I've SMS-ed her, Whatsapp her, posted birthday wish on her FB wall,
and now in my blog.. lemme think, what else....)

jacket trend 2012
@ Coffee Bean, Genting Highlands #24th Oct 2012#

Harlow!!! Just got back from Genting.. Guess what!
I went to see Kenny Rogers at the Arena of Stars!!!

I've got plenty to blog about the past weeks, but too little time to do any of it!

Let's just talk about movies right now eh..

Taken 2


Watched Taken 2 like weeks ago (super outdated review I know) but just wanted to say that it's rather disappointing. I was hoping that it's gonna be a good second installment looking at how good Taken was. I watched it twice!

When Taken 2 was announced, we kinda laugh that maybe Taken 3 will be about his grandma or his pet dog gotten kidnapped.

Back to Taken 2, the ending really sucks. Despite what seemed to be a cat n mouse chase in the city, the villain who TALKED BIG about revenge in the beginning of the movie was actually hiding n cowardly gave up without a proper fight in the end?

What about Bryan Mills (Liam Neeson) who managed to talk to his daughter Kim for a seemingly long conversation with all the guns pointed at him?

And the villain is kind enough to just hit Lenore (Bryan Mills ex-wife) unconscious instead of killing her in between the mayhem?

This movie is too kind on the hero. Hehe..



Taken 2 funnies poster
No one can mess with Liam Neeson! 


Hotel Transylvania (3D)


Just finished watching Hotel Transylvania in 3D this evening and OMG, mum enjoyed it! She was laughing giggling n all. 

Cartoon has always got the privilege to be a total nuisance but still appear funny.. thus audience are always amused and easier to be pleased.. that's just why I love cartoons!!! ;) 


Hotel Transylvania


Ted (2012)


The movie I'm looking forward to watch is Ted. Oh yes Ted Is Real.

Ted Official Trailer




fuck you thunder you can suck my dick
“When you hear the sound of thunder, don’t you get too scared. Just grab your thunder buddy and say these magic words: “Fuck you thunder!! You can suck my dick. You can’t get me, thunder, cuz you’re just God’s farts.”

I know what exactly my next birthday wish is! That my Domo could talk! Just like Ted I hope. He's tough, rough, rude n vulgar but that's definitely gonna be the best n entertaining friendship I'll ever have!!!! Hahaha...

joyce and domo
A lousy n unprepared version of
me n Domo with the "fuck you thunder" song..
muahahahahaaa...!!!
(look at Domo's hands up!!!)

Really tired ady.. I'll go off to bed.. ble ble ble... (Dracula : I do not say Bleh-ble-bleh!)

This is a backdated post of an outing with buddies last weekend.
Feeling lazy for a week then decided to just put the photos all together and call it a POST! ;)

---------------------------------------


Went to Antipodean Cafe @ Bangsar for breakfast.
A new place for me.
Loved it.

Thanks Barry for suggesting this place for breakfast.
Such a waste you couldn't join us.

Opening hours from 8am, but get ready to wait for at least 20mins for your table.

Vince & Kien Fei.. friends for 10 over years! 

 Pls be prepared to be served with a hearty meal that could keep you stuffed throughout the day.
Vince ordered 4 main course for all 4 of us.
I actually advised him to order 2 main and a side.
But ah well....

Among all the meal ordered, I prefer the classic big breakfast.
The kiwi lamb burger is not to my liking. Patty is dry.
Carbonara on the other hand is a little different in terms of pasta selection and the cream.
Vince and Michelle likes it though. 
Depends on individual preference.

Big breakfast with a wheatmeal bread, scramble eggs, bacon, grilled potato ... and my fav wild mushroom!

While looking at the chalkboard menu with my glasses on,
Fei darlin' aka Sei Fai Zai whispered to Vince about me..
After showing my stern face..
Fei darl spilled the beans, finally..

"Joyce looked like OL in AV with the specs on"

Me....

WTF?!!

Another stern face and he said I should take it as a compliment instead of an insult!

Took two photos, with and without glasses.

After such a heavy breakfast, we went to Bangsar Village to walk around.
In and out from CD shop, painting shop, sports outlet, 
admire expensive watches, laughing at how a notebook could cost RM259.00, 
and Michelle bought her fav macaroons. 
Vince bought a card game called Cluedo Suspect.


---------------------------------------

I then brought them to WIP @ Bangsar Shopping Centre.
WIP was previously known as "Work In Progress" and is now "Whipped Into Place!"

Told them about the BEST LAVA CAKE I ever had @ WIP!

...but we end up disappointed.
The Lava Cake is not as yummylicious as I remembered..
Where the center is soft, creamy and molten.. :(

Myself and Vince had mojito as they are having Happy Hours promo..
RM19 from their selection of Magnificent Five Mojitos!

Our beautiful Sunday didn't just end at Bangsar!
Came back to Klang and went to see Dredd.




The concept of the movie is not-that-bad.
What's bad is that gruesome part.
I was covering my face with the scarf most of the time.

And nobody would find out who is the lead actor in the movie cause
he's behind the mask the entire movie!

Just so you know, the character Dredd is acted by Karl Urban.
Karl Urban also acted in RED (Retired Extremely Dangerous)
alongside Bruce Willis and Morgan Freeman.

---------------------------------------

Thanks guys for giving me such a beautiful day.
Do treasure and love every bits of you!

This photo would look better if I'm smiling.. :)


---------------------------------------

Last week ET posted on my FB saying...

Happiness is a state of mind. Devote 5 minutes of your time to smiling daily and after a while, it will happen naturally

I replied...

Thanks dear.. I have tried.. But it's more to like faking smiles. A smile should come from happiness within. Else, that curve on the lips can also shows the sorrow inside. Agree ma?

And his post is actually an instruction... that I should do it daily. 5 mins everyday!

So... for the next 5 minutes... let's....


** SMILE!!! **

Toldcha it's not the end of Gangnam Style.
Even Klang (Pa Sang) has come out with our own  Hokkien Pa Sang style too!

Featuring Siong Huat Bak Kut Teh at Port Klang
(used to be called "ta su sia" meaning under the big tree bak kut teh,
... but I find this place over rated)

Boston famous steam lala.. 
(5mins from my house but I've not been there for so long due to the waiting hours)

Port Klang seafood.. ( I can recommend better ones.. :P )

...and yeah Klang has got alot of tuition centre!

Not bad for production from our fellow Klang people.. ;)



----------------------------------------------

On another note about Klang,
aside from being famous for bak kut teh,
we're famous of snatch theft cases too!

Of coz they cannot mention this in the video.. haaa!

Saw a post about Centro today..
I'm now thinking twice about going there to makan-makan ady...

Read up...

Warning!!! 
To all people out there especially girl pls be careful when driving. 
I know all of you heard this advices before but still i want to remind you again. 
If anyone knock your car from behind nvr ever rush down to view the condition. 
This happen to my close friend this morning at Centro, Klang basement carpark
While she on de way driving out from carpark 
suddenly 1 Indian motorcycle purposely knock behind her car. 
Instant reflect she rush down from the car to see what happen. 
The indian guy grab my friend and attempt to drag her to behind the car 
but my friend try to push off the guy and manage to escape and run back to the car. 
Then another Indian guy came so sudden out from no where 
and drag her down and bang her head to the wall. 
That Indian guy try to rob her car and her belonging. 
Thank God she manage to push of 1 of them and grab back the car and drive off. 
The worst thing is even my friend shouting for help and the 
security guard can't do nothing but standing there and watched
I wonder the management of Centro duno pay the security fees for what purpose. 
Luckily she could get away from this situation, 
if not the worst thing may happen to her as well.
So guys out there be careful nowadays k!!! God Bless!!


Feel relieved that Sunny insisted in escorting me back home after badminton today.
Thanks Sunny boy!

Someone shared this song in FB... Yi Ran Ai Ni by Lee Hom (my handsome and talented hubby)... and it's just a nice song that I wanted to keep remembering in my blog... although my handsome hubby will be singing it to me everynight... :P



Banana like me really need han yu pin yin in order to sing songs that I like...

So here it goes...

Lee Hom - Yi Ran Ai Ni (lyrics in han yu pin yin)

Yi shan yi shan liang jing jing liu xia sui yue de hen ji
Wo de shi jie de zhong xin yi ran hai shi ni
Yi nian yi nian you yi nian fei shi jin zai yi zhuan yan
Hui yi yong yuan bu gai bian shi bu ting de gai bian

*
Wo bu xiang cong qian de zi ji ni ye you dian bu xiang ni
Dan zai wo yan zhong ni de xiao yi ran de mei li
Zhe ci zhi neng wang qian zou yi ge fang xiang shun shi zhong
Bu zhi dao hai yao duo jiu suo yi yao rang ni dong

[Chorus]
Wo yi ran ai ni jiu shi wei yi de tui lu
Wo yi ran zhen xi shi shi ke ke de xing fu
Ni mei ge hu xi mei ge dong zuo mei ge biao qing
Dao zui hou yi ding hui yi ran ai ni

Yi ran ai ni yi ran ai ni

Repeat *

Repeat Chorus

Yi ran ai ni yi ran ai ni

Wo yi ran ai ni huo xu shi ming zhong zhu ding
Duo nian zhi hou ren he ren dou wu fa dai ti
Na xie shi guang shi wo zhe yi bei zi zui mei hao de
Na xie hui yi yi ran wu fa wang ji

Repeat Chorus

Ni mei ge hu xi mei ge dong zuo mei ge biao qing
Dao yong yuan yi ding hui yi ran ai ni



Lee Hom - Yi Ran Ai Ni (meaning in Chinese - English translation)

Twinkling sparkling
Leaving traces of the years
The center of my world
Or do you still

Year after year after year
Flies only in a blink of an eye
The only change is never
Is constantly changing

I like their former
You a little bit like you
But in my eyes your smile
Still beautiful

Days can only move forward
A Fangxiang Shun clock
Do not know how long
So let you know I still love you is the only escape route
I still cherish every moment of happiness
Every breath you face every action of each
Will end
Still love you

I still love you may be destined
Years later no one can replace the
That time is the best my life
Still can not forget those memories

I still love you is the only escape route
I still cherish every moment of happiness
Every breath you face every action of each
Will end
Still love you

Every breath you face every action of each
Will forever
Still love you



I actually find that the Chinese - English translation is a little sucky. It's obviously a direct translation from the Chinese lyrics and somehow sound ridiculous.. But better than not knowing what I sing right???

Almost 2am now and am wide awake. Looking forward to tomorrow! Yippieee~


Opp opp opp oppa gangnam style!

This video has gone viral since it's release in July 2012... and till date, the video in Youtube has reached a view count of 13,157,173 views!!!

So it's either you love it, or you hate it...



Ever since the release, many had tried the horse-riding dance.. and there came creative people who wanted to do their own horse-riding style... who then invented and published their videos in Youtube such as Orang Sabah style... Penang Hokkien style... Kl style... and the list goes on...

And yes my hometown had just produced our very own Pa Sang Style!

(these are ones from Malaysia... what about the rest of the world? There may be hundreds of Gangnam parody all over the world!!!... I'm kinda out of breath saying this.... )
Even Britney Spears learnt that dance from Psy personally at The Ellen DeGeneres show!!!



Did you just followed them learning the steps??? ....cause I did! :P

The Gangnam Style frenzyyyy...

McShaker at Malaysia!

First, pour the powder into the bag..
Second, shake shake and do the Gangnam Style for the powder to be evenly distributed to the fries..
Thirdly.. ENJOY your Gangnam Style McShaker!

no gangnam style


Psy Cappuccino anyone???

no gangnam style


Gangnam Psy bento! ...with two horses made of sausages..
no psy gangnam style

Nail art inspired by Psy Gangnam Style!!! ARGGGHHH....

no gangnam style


And now Psy likes to eat Roti Boy?!!
Why not do a Roti Boy video ad with that little bakery man doing the horse riding dance??!!! 

no gangnam style


As for me.. when I'm the office, I just go... "Hey~~ sexy lady~~~" for no reason... Cause that freaking song is playing in my mind!!!

And I guess after hearing it for months... everyone started to get sick of it... :P
This is a So Sick of Gangnam Style video by Red FM.



This NO GANGNAM STYLE signage should be everywhere... yeah... everywhere!!!


no gangnam style psy signage


no gangnam style signage
No Gangnam style sign all around.. :P



Although some may be sick of it, unfortunately, the fever of Gangnam style has not, and will not subdue that fast!!!

Did I mention that Vince had just danced the Gangnam for Staff Day Competition today??!!! And he WON FIRST PRIZE for that dance!!!

And one of my bestie who is a dance choreographer is arranging for a flash mob in a mall, and I'm expected to join her for the Gangnam style dance too!!! 

Long live Gangnam Style!!!

SWT.... -.-"'
