Stardust – a must watch!

dixonthum

Mein and I attended the preview of “Stardust” in KLCC last Wednesday and I found out that it is a very good movie! Well, at least for its kind of genre. It’s very different from Narnia, the-ever-dragging Lord of the Ring trilogy or the-ever-boring Harry Porter never-ending-logy.

 

It was an event to preview of Jimmy Choo “Stardust” Limited Edition shoe. To me, it’s just another socializing kind of event for the not-so-rich-but-rich and not-so-famous-but-famous group of people.

 

Well, Mein & I indeed enjoyed the movie very much. We loved the starting, the ending, the whole story line and the love story between Tristan and Yvaine, the star, the eagerness of the magical witches to capture the star and the funny Captain Shakespeare who is so keen to keep Tristan and Yvaine safe. It’s a “must watch” movie for everyone.

 

Oh, for your information the ending will end like this… “And they lived happily ever after…”

Just another mall…

dixonthum

Once the location of the ever famous Bukit Bintang Girls’ School (BBGS), is now the newly built Pavillion shopping mall. There are a lot of new and big malls built in the country in the past 10 years. For instance, Mid Valley Megamall, Berjaya Times Square, The Curve in Mutiara Damansara, One Utama (1U) New Wing, AEON City all around Malaysia, Queens Bay Mall in Penang and a few others in other parts of Malaysia. Pavillion is just another one in the whole lot and it is located in one of the busiest spot in KL for the past half century, Bukit Bintang.

 

Well, I went there to “survey” the location and found out that it is indeed just another big mega mall which caters the rich and famous. Most of the shops are high-end brands which only serve the Platinum level kind of customers. (Isn’t it a too limited market?!).

 

Personally, I still think that Sungai Wang in Bukit Bintang is the best spot for all level of community. Anyhow, the growing number of mega malls in the country shows the growing economy and it definitely encourages and welcomes oversea investors to invest in the country. A positive sign, but yet, it is still just another big mega mall to me… Don't tell anyone

My Personal

Non Medical Representative

dixonthum
I had my first chance to become a non-medical rep (NMR) for the company to pick up a patient from Medan and send him to Subang Jaya Medical Centre (SJMC). I’ve always wanted to become a NMR for a long time. Well, I had to take a monorail to KLIA and wait for the patient in the arrival hall. After he’s arrived, brought him to take the limo pick up arranged by my fellow colleagues to SJMC. I felt so excited throughout the whole journey.
 
I have found something that not everyone has the chance to do. I still remember having an ambition to become a doctor or nurse when I grew up. Eventually the dream is now a fairy tale but at least in the company that I’m working at now, I have got the chance to work with doctors & nurses. I can now coordinate medical related cases to help patients. The feeling is much better than becoming a doctor myself. I salute my colleagues who has been in the team for so long. They are simply the best people that I have worked with. What I can see in them is to help others (those whom you do not know) without any conditions. Way to go!
 
Here are some photos I took throughout the journey using my new mobile – trying out the gadget. It’s a birthday present from my beloved dear:Nokia 3110 Classic.

Penang

dixonthum

I also have a feeling of missing this place called PENANG. Don’t know why but the feeling is just there. I’ve always miss Komtar, Prangin Mall, Kek Lok Si, Gurney Drive, Ghee Hiang, Eight Row steamboat, morning dimsum, Tanjung Bungah, Batu Ferringghi, Felicia, Mein’s house, Mein’s family and everything about Penang. Always wanted to go there again to relax. Maybe it’s because everytime going back to Penang, I don’t feel the stress at work. I don’t see the busy hustle in KL. I feel very much relax there. I just wish that I can spend more time there. Therefore, Mein will have more time to spend with her family and I would have more time to enjoy. The food, the air & the water… The only one thing that I still find it difficult to cope with is the Hokkien language. BUT now I know how to understand it by listening to other’s conversation. Bad enough, I am still not able to speak the language. Embarrassed
(Everytime I go back, Mein’s brother, Hong Wai will have to be “kicked out” as he would be kind enough to let Mein & I have his room while he has to stay overnight at his girlfriend’s house. I really appreciate his kind gesture! Thanks man!)
