Night Before Christmas

December 25, 2008 dixonthum

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Spent a warm Christmas eve dinner with family yesterday. Had pizzas, fishballs, dim sums (Yes! Dim sum for dinner!) and fruit rojak. It’s just a closed and average dinner.

Also took out the once-a-year X’mas tree and started decorating it. As a tradition, we had a gift exchange session among the siblings and ma. Our budget this year is RM7.

That’s how an average Christmas should be and we love it! Enjoyed ourselves to the max.

Guess what I got?! 🙂

Siti Nurhaliza

Catch “Lentera Timur” Soon…

After such a long wait, finally, Siti is coming out with her fourth contemporary tradisional album and 13th studio album, Lentera Timur. This album compiles the hardwork of various local producers and song-writers as well as one from Indonesia. Really looking forward for this album. Will there be a song as competitive and well-composed as Nirmala (from Sanggar Mustika)? Will there be a song as famous as Cindai (from Cindai)?

Look forward for it from 26 December 2008 onwards.

*Lentera Timur means light from the East. I suppose Siti is hoping that this album would be a ray of light to the local traditional music scene as it is fading away slowly from the local music industry right after Siti’s last album, Sanggar Mustika. Will this album be the light in the "dark"?

Another Medal on My Wall

I have added another medal in my collection from the Malakoff 12km Run 2008. This round, it was a bit different as CF did not came as he had an emergency situation with his project. EZi joined me in this race. He too got his medal! Great job! We have proven that great determination is what you need to achieve surprising and fruitful outcome…

We Survived on This for Dinner

December 17, 2008December 23, 2008 dixonthum

Were in Mid Valley just now but didn’t know what to have for dinner… Yo! Sushi! We saw this restaurant and walked in to try them out since we didn’t know what to eat then. To my surprise, they are quite good – in terms of food, service and deco. But the pricing is a bit to the higher end… if the price can be reduced, I am sure we will definitely be their frequent customers! :")

The Christmas deco in Mid Valley was very impressive! To me, I remember Mid Valley has been very good in their festive deco every year. I’m sure they do have a huge budget for their deco. Well, who says it’s the recession now?! (BUT I’m sure the wave is slowly coming to us soon… BE READY!)
