a none public holiday

it's a public holiday- thaipusam but it is still work for me. lots of markings to do and is till have not finished yet. looks like the night will be spent reading 'how to eat wisely'-2 classes.
and tomorrow, i have more books coming in. the sight of the brown cover of the exercise books can instil fear in me now.

spotted in the newspaper this week:

an advertisement of dried meat. why do i take this down? well, the company is owned by one of mom's relatives and that is where we get our annual supply of sweet meat gwai fa meat. atticus' favourite. i have not seen their advert in newspaper before, hence i took a photo of it.

what is chinese new year without dried meat eh? ok, they are not good for health and so on, but how often do you have them? i don't think i will be seeing any pork dried meat in the house since the price of pork has increased a lot. i am going to order dried duck meat instead from bidor. people cringed when they hear duck meat, but to me, once the meat is marinated and grilled, the taste is almost the same lah. i am getting the duck meat for rm30 per 500g.

next up- sharing the different sizes and heights of tiffin carriers found in my house today. as we get more environmentally-friendly, we will see more of these in houses right? the largest one is used to hold my daily dinner from the caterer- 3 dishes and rice at the bottom. the other two, well, the kids brought me some food yesterday and this morning, and they also chose to use tiffin carriers. bravo. the young generation is also conscious about the environment. the one on the right is really cute because it is the smallest tiffin carrier i have ever seen, like the size of my palm.

and i am supposed to do some homework tonight........but now i have to cancel because marking is more important. a colleague lent me this book. among the four who are travelling to paris in june, i think i am the one doing the most research work. the rest plan to follow me, but what if what i want to see is not what they want to see?

wanna ask about moulin rouge. has anyone been to this show in paris? is it worth paying to see topless cabarets and can-can dance? i checked the price online and it is almost rm400 for a 90-minute show. i was kinda shocked by the ticket price. that sort of puts me off.
