One Piece

I've started to watch this series if not mistaken for the last five years and I've just watched upto episode# 354 last week. Will still need to wait for a long long time till the story actually ends. One nice thing about this series is that it always gives you surprises in each episode. Furthermore, there had not been any boring moment throughout the whole series when compared to other long running series like Dragonball, Naruto, Bleach, Inuyasha etc. (hope i did not offend anyone by saying this.. haha)

While it is always full of funny moments, there are many touching episodes that makes you cry, especially when revealing the dramatic past of each characters concerned. It even manage to make the audience felt very touched when their beloved ship burned down and sink into the sea. The writer must have really thought of the storyline very very well, as the recent episode that I had watched in fact is very very much related to previous episodes way way back, also many years ago :P

The story is about a group of pirate, each with their own agenda at first but soon developed a strong commitment and bond to stay together and see thru their adventure in venturing thru the great ocean to find the ultimate treasure called One Piece (though each will still want to achieve what they had wanted when they first joined the crew). Though the long running series, they still did not have a complete crew yet of a pirate ship and yet, they are powerful enough to fight with other group of pirates and make enemy with the world government while rescuing one of the crewmate in the earlier episodes. In fact, the recent episode that i watched was actually in the process of wanting to recruit a new member into their crew, which is a skeleton musician and will then make the total of 8, along with their idiotic caption, senseless first mate, sexy navigator, lying sniper, pervert cook, gullible doctor, smart archaeologist and a cyborg shipwright.

Refer to this link <<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Piece>> for more information of the stories and characters, as the story is running for soooo long, it will be tiring to re-write the whole thing again. My favourite character??? Well, it all of them! But I think you really need to watch the whole show to really understand what I mean.

Company Trip to Melaka

There's a trip to Melaka held by our company on 19th July and 20th July where all the staffs from 3 branches (JB, KL and PG) joined together for fun and games. In total there were 45 of us Visualians hogging the Mahkota hotel. For those from PG, the 7 of us started our journey from the Penang airport at 8.15am and reached KLIA LCCT terminal at 9.15am. From there, one of our management staff from KL pick us up with his Avanza and drove us all the way to Melaka. The rest of the staffs were already at the hotel eating their buffet lunch while waiting for us.

This is how you should pose with Company T-Shirt

One of the main event was the team-building activities. There were lots funny moments during the whole team-building event. To capture the group photo during team-building was very challenging but the photo came out very nicely.

After dinner, all of us went to Jonker Street to experience the night market environment in Melaka. We even manage to try out the "Gula Melaka Ais Kacang" and fried oyster ("Oo Chien") Melaka style. It was indeed a very memorable experience and our company did promise that we'll be able to go to a better trip next year. So to all Visualians, let's work hard and play hard!

Dog from Space

My dog was sent to the vet to be spayed yesterday. When she was discharged today, the vet told us that she will need to wear a plastic cover to prevent her from licking her stitch wound and wear a t-shirt as well to prevent any dirt from touching her wound when she is sleeping as we do not have a cage in our house.

When we reached home, i took one of my old t-shirt and wore it on her. As it was abit loose, we need to tie some part of the clothing with rubberbands. In the end, she looked so funny that we called her "The Space Dog".

According to the vet, our dog is so strong that he need to give her 2 dosage of anesthethics, and even then, it is very hard for her to fall asleep for the operation.

Sweet Cupcakes


My younger sister baked some cupcakes recently, and from the result, it is clearly shown that she is a better at baking than I am. However, since she bought the ingredients needed from departmental store, her costs per cupcake is quite high but it tastes really good. She even had the time to make some icing to complement her cupcakes.

It's a Baby ???

According to the doctor, I'm currently in the 20th week of my pregnancy. I've felt the baby moving inside for the past few weeks though, and must always sleep on my side rather than on the back. I'm starting to feel back pain again :(

The doctor had revealed to us on the baby's gender, and now my husband and I are trying hard to figure out a name for our baby. Just hope the doctor's guesses are right else we may need to rethink of other names when the baby is out.
