dinner

walla.. another picture blog.. a food blog.. i wanted to post a food blog after coming back from penang.. but then. didn get much food pictures back then.. because... erm.. the food is in my tummy be4 i realize i need to photograph them.. haha.. anyway i am kinda full and sleepy to explain more.. haha.. well here is dinner for the day.. enjoy people..

me dominating the lappy before dinner..
saying my good byes to my chat buddies before leaving for dinner...

arrive at English Tea House.. one of the most prestigious restaurants in the nature city.. wonderful food, beautiful view.. superb environment..

today's special menu.. nope.. didn't have this.. we are going for the set dinners.. muaahahaha
after ordering and waiting.. here is our 1st dish.. as u notice there are dirt on the side of the plate.. nope.. its not on purpose.. well.. is because the brain of the photographer(me) is too attracted to the food and forget to take a picture before eating(which always happens) but he manage to vomit them out for the photo before drinking them back.. haha

1st dish: wild mushroom soup.. with garlic bread(no garlic bread in pic coz all is in tummy).
it taste kinda watery.. but.. with a touch of pepper and salt.. yum =)

main course: this is fish with white sauce...
fish cook with spices and with a dash of lime juice.. serve with mash potato, emperor shoot(a kind of vege) carrot and some bean sprout like vegetable... mum n dad had this.. got a small bite on it.. kinda taste like dry prawns.. maybe my tongue is contaminated with beef,, haha..

main course no2: roll up beef..
3/4 done.. serve with mash potato under the rolls and also carrots, emperors shoot and those beans sprout like vegetable. the sauce taste kind of like black paper.. i forgotten what fancy name they gave.. =) the meet is kinda chewy. thinly slice and cook and then roll up into a spring roll shape.. i had this for dinner.. because i don't really need to worry about my bad cholesterols rite?? enjoy and savor good food!!

now u see it no you don't.. before(above) and after(below) picture of the main course

guess what is it?? pizza with a overflow of melted cheese and swings of tomato ketchup?? or some kind of italian food??

a close up..

the interior of it... can't guess??
its desert!! custard raisin bread. is a bread with raisins and covered with custard.. yum yum.. wonderful desert after all those heavy meat... heavily raisin too.. notice those brown rounded stuff there?? with custard poured over the piece of bread and cherry syrup crossing up n down of it..

desert no2: chocolate ice cream..
all time favorite dessert for all age group.. top with whip cream and cherry syrup..
it taste as nice as it looks..


and some random pics
the open air area..
over viewing sandakan town and the the sea.. wonderful place to see ships float by.. there is also a peacock, a few cats, a telescope, Croquet lawn and wonderful maintain grass... how i always dream if my house has grass like that...

the cake cabinet
cheese cakes... chocolate, double layer, etc etc.. cost of each is about RM9.50 per piece.. quite a big one thou... if my dinner is not that full.. i might have had one.. haha.. but.. i will save it for another special day.. maybe share it with my girlfriend friends..

me n beloved mum..
do we look alike?? we are suppose to.. coz they say my bro look like my mum.. n i look like my bro..
so it means i look like my mum too rite?? haha.. hmmm... n dad?? dad is busy taking pictures.. haha..

the indoor area..
we book the whole restaurant.. jus for us. dats y its so empty.. haha.. no larr. its kind of empty during the week days and also for dinner.. but i heard is quite filled during lunch and holidays.. haha.. interior is beautifully design to maintain back the british time.. hanging green potted plants at the side and wooden celling makes it more nostalgic.. with some of those museum relics like the old iron where coal is used as heating element adds to that nostalgic feel.

the cake menu on the table..
may i have your order sir/ma'am??" haha..


overall the this place is a wonderful place for gathering of no matter the size.. a group of friends or wanting to spend a nice dinner with your special one.. the food are well prepared and the services given are very professional. as for price, its worth what you pay but its definitely not a place you will want to have dinner at a daily basis unless you have too much in your pockets. haha. i suggest go in the evenings before the sun sets so you can enjoy sandakan town's view better.. night views are blocked by trees... and sandakan town is dark at night.. so better use the help of mr sun.. for more information check out their website here . burb* excuse me.. haha =)

working

rite.. i have been working for almost 1 month.. and teaching for 3 weeks. though it fills up my empty slots, and also put some cash into my pockets, i 1st and very 1st advice to those who want to look for jobs... GET SOMETHING YOU REALLY LIKE TO DO!!!

anyway.. teaching a very young kid is a very tough job indeed. Teresa has given warnings and advices that she got form her teaching experience and i really appreciate them. thanks ya =). but anyway some of them doesn't work on very very young kids.

anyhow here are a few things i gain from teaching my very young student.

young people have various mood
well.. the 1st thing you do when you start your lesson with them is to observe what mood are they in. playful?? bored?? happy?? or just plain normal(which i think i never see one normal mood). then, your lesson will base on the moods to counter them.. if they are playful, u b strict, if they are boring, u make it interesting, if they are happy.. erm.. well.. just be happy with them.. haha.. but usually happy goes with playful.. so means we need to be ready to be strictly happy..

jump on opportunity.
when a student is in a good mood, teach him more. teach and teach and teach. because good mood means he will listen to you more attentively. when he is in a so-call-bad-mood, no matter how much you teach will not enter his growing brain. so when you see him in a good, happy and ready, force all knowledge into him that time in a good way. they will remember usually. but be warn, good mood's doesn't last long and not all lessons have good moods... so observe and jump on any openings

get to know your student well
one must know the favorite stuff of the student. if he likes candies, bring some while teaching him. if he likes transformers, go read up a little on it. mine likes origami. so what i do is to open an origami book before any class to fold something interesting and put it on the table. and keep telling him that i will teach him fold if he finish all his work. guess what.. it works.. the bad thing.. i am bad in origami. haha.. of course you must have plan B and C's in his favorite stuffs. candies and plasticine are my plan B's. oh.. you cannot always use the same bribe all the time. they like variation.

they have short term memory.
yes.. what every you teach them, they won't remember. not on that particular day. but if u ask them the next day or the future, they might recall and answer you. so what u need to do is repeat, repeat and repeat. make him repeat after you. yeah.. its kinda makes you lose your head when you repeat and repeat and they don't remember, so what you can do is ask them at intervals of time.. maybe at the end of lesson or while you are correcting his books. make it a conversation and not a task. the good side?? well when ever they ask you something that you don't want to answer, just tell them "i will answer you when you finish your work". and that all.. they won't ask again. haha

look at their writing
their writing shows a lot on the mood of the students. if they are writing normally, means they are still in good condition. if the writing goes huge, forceful and erm... ugly, well better change the topic, or let him take a break. drink his water, let him blabber a few things of his own, and then call him continue. it kinds of reset his brain.. or like what we say.. stress release.. haha..


yupp.. so far thats all.. but one very very important thing is patience. lots and Lots and LOTS of patiences... cute or not, naughty or not, or playful or not, PATIENCE in what ever you do. you may curse, you may be angry and piss off.. but just remember, no matter how long is the time, it will pass. try to imagine something funny while you teach, it makes u feel better.

most of all, GET SOMETHING YOU REALLY LIKE TO DO.. wait,, did i say that?? yeah.. i did above. i dare not say i enjoy working there.. but i was not, am not and will not say i hate my job. my main purpose i join the working society is to get some new friends to talk to. but sadly in my current job, there are not much people i can talk to. my boss and my boss's sis. thats all. and not all of them are there all the time. in another words, i am usually working alone(i hate being alone... remember???) most of the time. which is sad and it did not fulfill my main purpose of working. yes.. teaching is in my blood. i have both parents as teachers.. but what they like doesn't mean what i like right?? everyone is different and i wonder whether they understand. my student's mother commented that her son like me.. i should be happy with that right?? sigh~ anyhow and anyway, complaining won't help to improve my current condition.. wait.. i am complaining now... all right.. i will stop now.

there are lots that happens lately in the past year as well as also this... the crime in this country has move from typical break in house with screw drivers to new and modern blasting off evidence with a C4.. not only that, malaysia is kind for its infamous deaths before something right is done.

all deaths cause from snatch thieves, rape n kill victims, accidents victims from death rides on public transport and many many more. there is never been heard that government agencies performing acts of prevention before more souls leave the surface of this planet. the environment of this country doesn't gain a better fate than its people. without press making a havoc in some place saying about the effects on the destruction done by fellow humans, the government won't even care. and when something appear on television or newspaper.. wow.. the work force will end up at the location doing cover-up work and also make a big fuss on showing government agencies is working just to show the people how efficient they are. but after some time.. bad habits reappear and everything is back to square 1.

people blame the government on wasting tax-payer's money through all over budgeted projects and also sending people to space. and of course bribery, under table money, kopi-O money.. etc etc etc... all money that can help to make malaysians a smarter society is wasted in hotel stays.. buka puasa functions.. and also malaysia so-call-famous rumah terbuka. imagine how many ppl we can feed with the money we spend on this 'eating-functions' in africa?? wow.. i think its enough to feed a small country there... n what does we do with it?? we pill up our plates with free food... and throw half away because we want to go for a 2nd round at the buffet table as its FOC...

BUT... before we start shooting at our government, think.. what we have or will do?? yes.. we(non-bumis) have had lots of unfairness... and there are lots of them fighting for equal rights. but how about you?? are you fighting with them?? or just standing by the side?? watching them being eaten alive by bigger players in the game of "lots of blood sucking creatures" a.k.a. politics?? if we are just standing at the side and not doing anything to help.. isn't complaining and complaining only make us suffer more?? and whats worst.. nothing will come out from your complains.. we complain gov is wasting our money... did u ever attend any raya open house organized by them?? or did u in anyway participated in any projects that is over-celebrated??

i dun know wat im typing. .sorry for the random-ness..

my future.

i will look back upon him who taught me this art even as one of my parents. i will share my substance with him, and i will supply his necessities, if he be in need. i will regard his offsprings even as my own brothers, and i will teach them this art by precept, by lecture and by every mode of teaching, not only to my sons, but to the sons of my teacher, and to disciples bound by covenant and oath according to the Law of Medicine but to none others

I will follow that method of treatment which according to to my ability and judgment. I consider for the benefits of my patients, and not for their hurt or wrong. i will give no deadly drug to any, though it be asked of me, nor will i counsel such, and especially i will not aid a woman to procure abortion.

what soever house i enter, i will go into for the benefit of the sick, refraining from all wrong doing or corruption, and especially from any act of seduction, of male or female, of bond or free. whatsoever things i see or hear concerning the life of men, in my attendance o the sick or even apart, i will keep silence thereon, counting such as sacred secrets.
--------------------------------------

haha... yupp.. i got and officially i am going to to podiatry. yes. P-O-D-I-A-T-R-Y. Podia-what?? whats that?? to save time and for faster understanding.. i decided to post a video!! haha

watch...



well.. in malaysia this is a brand new medical field and the only resources i can find is tru the web. but this field is very well matured in the western countries like the states and australia.. i didnt even know this field exist till i did some research on health science courses. so basically a podiatrist is dealing with the feet. yes feet.. the two little feet of yours.

here is two other links that can help u understand podiatry better.. click here and here
i would like to suggest those that plan to take any medical courses to browse the forum website.. its kinda US-ish.. but still tones of info in them.. hehe..

why i choose this course?? its kinda long story.

it all begin long long long time ago... long before your time.. haha.. well.. it started this year with the uni application fever.. well.. i aim was to be a doctor.. a specialist to be exact.. and i still remember i am like the only one saying that i wan to be the job i presented in the job description project in IS.. funny.. my plans never work out well.. i got a place in Krusk state medical university(KSMU) which is in Kursk state, Russia. yes Russia.. the ex-communist country.. but due to the late answer from the ministry of higher education, i didn't accept the offer to Russia. which then surprise me that many people was glade i didn't go to Russia.. i then apply to Australia for physiotherapy.. i got the conditional offer and the condition is that i send in a copy of my certify a-level statement.. and guess what?? pos malaysia was slow and i didn't manage to get into physio for next year's intake!! so quickly.. i switch to podiatry. n at last the whole thing end. of course i did apply to the whole Australia and also the New Zealand.

through out the whole process going tru the waiting, and looking at all the bad news before the good one comes.. i know lots of people have gone tru this process. and i guess its kinda normal to all.. i have been thinking whether i did the correct choice in this. this will be one of the few biggest choices one made in his or her life. and i am kinda crazy to choose this because there is no reference in Malaysia for me to refer. try typing podiatry in malaysia in google search. i guess there is but very very little.. and of course there is non in sandakan. but thanks to internet, i guess i know the tip of the ice berg of this job. i guess i manage to escape the great jobs circle(doctor, engineer, pharm, dentist) by choosing a brand new field. i am already crazy to choose physiotherapy because its also unknown to public... whats more podiatry. its alien to them. i told a few of my friends.. "i am taking podiatry" and the next question will be "wats dat??" so i guess there in no exposure in malaysia.

i will be wearing a labcoat when i work, but the stethoscope will not be able to be my best friend.. i won't see people with problems other than problems with their feet.. but i guess i play a role in the health science field as well.. depends on how we look at the matter.. just yesterday i was chating with my friend and the question on how you look at a half field cup came up.. here is the answer
me: how do u look at a a half field cup??
this was the answer given my friend, MY
i asked the question once

n the funniest answer i got was...
it all depends on how u look at i
imagine a glass in front of u
if u look at it from the top... it looks full
if u look at it frm the side its half full
if u look at it from the bottom...... (takes glass up and turns it upside down)... its empty

yes i agree.. i wont say more..


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

yeah.. i have been working for the 3rd week now... but i wont talk about them here... jus in case my boss is reading.. hahaha.. jk larr.. i guess i wont be talking about it because there is nothing much to share... i work from monday to friday, being an admin and teaching asistant, i teach on monday, wednesday and friday... and work half day on tues and thurs... if u wan to know more just ask me larr.. tru msn kah.. email kah... or anything larr.. haha...

alrite thats all for today...
oh fyi: the first 3 paragraph.. its the Hippocratic oath.. something from the father of morden medicine to the doctors today. i always wanted to say it.. but i guess... i will leave it to the doctors.. hehe =)

to all uni applicants.. all da best in your application. and may you get the course you want. and for those that wish me good wishes for my application.. thanks a lot..
