Courage of Conviction

Thinking of whether to watch Transformers: Age of Extinction at the nearest cinema? Read on till the end and use the flowchart to determine if you should watch. The 4th installment or rather a reboot of Michael "EXPLOSION" Bay's Transformers is setting the base for the 5th movie. Full of explosions! Enough said! Was it good? or was it bad? For me I am going for a 5/10 rating. Lot's of ads placements. For god sake, I am not interested in buying bras from Victoria's Secret but I wouldn't mind looking at some pretty ladies in them. Do they have that? Is Fan Bing Bing in bikini style? I am not going to give you any spoilers. Just go and watch yourself to find out. For your money's worth, I would recommend 3D IMAX for the fighting/battle and explosive scenes. That's if you could bear with one of the character being a mixture of a failed Tony Stark imitation of a rich billionaire clown for 2 hours 45 minutes. Yes go empty your bladder befo...

Some people say a picture is worth a thousand words. For me as a photographer, traveler and blogger, it is actually much more than that. Every picture tells a story on its own. What better way to tell that by sending a limited edition custom postcard from Printit? Be it people who made a difference in your life, pets that meant everything to you or some important events in your life?  You could just print out your most beautiful pictures taken and post them to your friends What better way to keep memories of those perfect sceneriesyou ever captured without needing to worry if your hard disk, pendrive or phone going dead on you losing most precious memories? You could also print out pictures from your recent travel trips. Or your life experience. Print them direct from your mobile device. Print as you go while traveling and have them sent direct to your doorstep.   Here are just some of the printings available.. The square prints and also...

The second installment of the trilogy. Yes you read it right. There's a 3rd one coming. This is only the sequel to the first movie. If you have not watch the first movie, there are parts where you would wonder what is happening. Questions like how did they get to ride the dragons? How did someone loss his legs? Did his dragon bite if off? Go get yourself the DVD of the first movie(illegal or not is up to you seriously but I ain't responsible if you ever get caught). My take on the movie? Totally worth watching. Going for 3D? I would advice you to save up the money and for the likes of action movies aka Transformers: Age of Extinction as this movie 3D is nowhere near avatar. Seriously after 15 minutes I could barely notice if there were any 3D left on the movie. And No I ain't gonna give you any spoilers..

Hidden at the corner of the building somewhere in Gurney Paragon is this little known restaurant serving pizzas and one of the most unique burger I have ever had. Their main attraction? Ramen burger of course. Spacious setting for patrons comfort. I liked the deco's on the walls actually Cappuccino served in their unique cup You may say burger are too mainstream nowadays with every street in Penang literally having a burger joint right? No the thing is Javries uses ramen to substitute their buns Chicken Teriyaki Ramen Burger RM15++ ala carte. At first bite I could feel the juicy chicken covered with teriyaki sauce. Something else familiar was in there. Wasabi(optional but do let them know if you can't take it) that added to the unique taste. As the sauce and juice drips out, it was caught by the ramen bun. This made the ramen bun equally as tasty as the tender chicken. Next is their Italiano pizza RM25.8++. Somehow my friends gave bad r...

Well, you feel exhausted at work or cleaning the house over the weekend. You feel you just need the sugar rush, something to pamper yourself for a good job done at the end of the day, sit and relax. What do you do? Go find some cakes of course.. What else better than having some cakes listening to the sound of waves? Look at the cakes. Doesn't it cheer you up?
