a gem in kepong - red yeast restaurant

Red yeast restaurant lies in a little quiant corner of taman sinar bintang, kepong. It has been around for quite a while and one can expect a steady crowd there. Red yeast serves delicious fuzhou red wine vermicelli. They are generous with their wine and meat making this dish really good on a cold night. the soup is thick with flavour , every sip is a delectable experience
Another of my favourite is the red roasted chicken set. This set comes with a bowl free herbal soup. The rosted chicken is coated with red yeast before being cooked in a traditional oven.

hoofed restaurant

tried out hoofed restaurant in taman tun dr ismail few weeks ago. Initially, i was not that keen to try out this restaurant as i do not quite fancy pork. I was wrong. their devil hair pasta was one of the best thing that i have ever tasted. it looked like dry wan tan mee but it tasted much more better than wan tan mee. The caramelised pork was juicy and crispy at the same time. The pasta got its flavour and taste from the pork . simply delicious

overcoming your obstacles by

the latest directive from the education department has made life miserable for all teachers. we are required to key in all the exam online, now don't get me wrong here. Keying in data is not a difficult task , but what is horrible is that it takes a long time just to key in a student's mark. It took me 3 days just to key in the marks of 22 students
So, i choose not to focus on this as it makes me miserable. I rather write about food and my trips to the jungle

Return to Eden - danum valley, sabah

It's unbelievable that not too far from the town of tawau, lies the gem of nature lovers' paradise known as danum valley. A three-day, two-night stay at the Borneo Rainforest Lodge transported me back to the place where time stood still. Danum Valley boasts of a vast area of virgin tropical forests with its abundance of wild animals roaming free. Borneo Rainforest Lodge provides comfortable lodging, good food and challenging activities that one is never bored there.
I have posted some pictures taken in my next post : - danum , an eden on earth.
the first picture was taken in the dark of a brown iguana climbing a tree.

Positive thinking

It's definitely hard to start the day off on a positive note when all those around you start off by complaining. Sometimes, we fail to be thankful for the little things in life . In fact, to be able to get up in the morning itself is a good reason to be thankful that God has granted another day to our life

Going back to the basics

How then to be positive in life ? Be thankful always. I find this a bit hard as humans, we tend to take things for granted. Demanding for things just like a spoilt child. So, I have made a conscious effort to thank God for the breath in me, first thing in the morning. Appreciating our loved ones is also one of the things I take for granted. Have I told them that i love them?

Don't worry , be glad

I used to worry a lot. Even small matters worry me a lot. Suddenly, it dawned upon me that worrying means I don't trust God at all. What is scary here is that this statement brings a lot of truth. Whenever problem hits , my fertile imaginations seems to be doing me no justice at all, displaying to me the worst scenario there could be with our problems and pushing me deeper into my worry state. Where then is the God that I've proclaimed to be great and almighty? So, I have decided not to worry. ( how I wish this is as simple as refraining oneself from eating chocolates ). The bible asks us to commit our ways to Him and He'll make our paths straight. So, everytime and anytime, I am hit by the panic button, I will just tell myself that things will turn out alright and that there's no cause to worry. And no problems is too big that God cannot solve it. Take it to the Lord in prayer.
