Finally after some relaxation and off from work, Daniel is back again on his feet and eating chinese new year cakes and biscuits. Heeee… yeah, I was a bit unwell before the Lunar New Year, must be the power of the OX in me.

Alright I think it was due to the fact that I am at home and back at home town with all the fresh air and stuffs that got me to be back to where I am now, a healthy young man. To celebrate this time, I’ve got myself a new template with the realization to celebrate the Lunar New Year. It’s a bit reddish, a bit pinkish (OMG..) but it’ll do for the new year. So what do you all have in mind for the new year? More gambling? More beer? More alcohol? I just bully my cousins..

Where was I? Oh… being the Chinese/Lunar New Year 2009, as every year, I was in Malacca city again to visit my relatives and friends and of course to enjoy the Nyonya food. Well, I come from a Baba Nyonya lineage so it’s definitely nyonya food.

One of my favorite is the ‘Itik Tim‘ (Duck Sour Soup) which is one of the classic soup I get to drink every year. Hmm.. in short it’s a soup with duck meat and ‘ham chai‘ (Sour Vegetables) which is one of a delicacy of the Nyonya food.

Until then, to all readers and jumpers and visitors of Weird Weird Denial, I want to wish to all those celebrating this festive season a very very happy and ‘ang ang’ Happy Niu 牛 Year 2009!!

The date was January 2009. The dawn of a new year. The constant reminder that a new year will either bring peace, problems or worse still whatever it brings. Though I just realized that from January 2009 until now (still January 2009) I was non stop coughing and now it got worse.

Too bad I can’t get my MC yet due to work dateline. Darn… I am just a workaholic at times.

I think I deserved a rest after the CNY holidays. There goes my Chinese New Year food and none for me.

A few weeks back, I tried my second helping on the same Korean restaurant I had my dinner. Yes, where else to eat authentic or maybe Korean made food other than the place in Ampang opposite Ampang Point. One of the finer points of eating in the korean restaurant, you must definitely try the beef or they call it Bulgogi (불고기) . Well, too bad though if you don’t eat beef .

Of course that wasn’t what I just ate. How can it be enough for the 4 of us. Here’s another shot of it. Sometimes showing less is better.

Do you see the Soju on the top right of this photo. It cost about RM15 per bottle. I think I enjoyed eating KimChi too in a korean dish. Darn, I am hungry, as a matter of fact, I just had Korean Noodle for dinner. Ironic…

I haven’t been posting food topics for awhile, maybe because I love to post sceneries. Who knows, I might make a comeback on food.

Of course, to see more food and the others that we ate, Alvin Chew did a great post on it.

Yes, it was a few weeks ago, that I had this group gathering at Feelings Cafe. Feelings Cafe was one of the first few cafe with singers to perform that started in Wangsa Maju. Yes, nowadays though you have tonnes and tons of cafes with life band music around Wangsa Maju.

Not that those who are in Cheras will shout out aloud since they have it like a few years ago. The only thing good about this place is that Feelings Cafe is so near my location and they have a good team of singers.

Alright, maybe it was due to the girl singing and the pretty looks. But one thing that really got me thinking was the guy with the guitar look somewhat similar with someone most Malaysians know. Have a closer look….

Is that Namewee???? OMG… in case you’re wondering. He looks exactly like Namewee a.k.a Wee Meng Chee (黄明志). Some people even took the trouble to request 麻坡的華語 (Muar Chinese) song for the group to sing. How ironic can it be =_=”. Though lucky no one requested Negarakuku.

Wee Meng Chee, he has his own blog at Namewee.blogspot.com. Now everyone starts singing, “I am the King of Daoban“.

ps : ya… I am a fan of his.. LOL
pss : Correction made on his blog link…

Year 2008 has been a very queer and weird year for me. In this year, I’ve practically left the comfort of my 3 years of working in the same company and then without realizing has been in 3 different companies until I stayed where I am now. It was also the year that I decided that I should start being more and more adventurous.

Thus approaching the middle of the year around April to June 2008, a few activities were lined up and I am glad I did. Yes, I know people don’t call me weird for a reason.

One of the most important history was that I climbed the highest mountain in South East Asia at Mount Kinabalu. By doing so I am on top of all he clouds. The only thing I regretted was how slow I climbed up to reach the peak. The sun’s up too. Now wasted, no sunrise photo from me. Well, something which I might be thinking of more in the future.

It was also the first time, I am glad to have able to gathered a few people to go on a trip to Redang Island practically with a group of bloggers from the chatbox ShoutOutLounge. To think that I’ve only got to know most of them on July 2007 and by 2008 a trip to Redang Island was made possible.

To think it all began from a chatbox, I must say it really does augur to me well that more trips to be looked upon. Well, I guessed that’s all the trip I could cover due to the unavailability of leaves during the year 2008.

But back then during January 2008, I remembered that I had created a sort of a crazy and weird kind of a resolution which was to be a celebrity blogger just like Kenny Sia. Yup, it was one heck of a crazy idea but well, about the outcome, hmmm.. not as close at all.

Now, how can I not forget this dream, but boy, I look like an amateur blogger with no sense of blogging at all. Well, I must say I have a lot to learn to even bother to know how to serve the readers and bloggers out there. But just in case you know, I ain’t no Kenny Sia because each person has their own blogging style. I am what I am, Weird Weird Denial.

To think it all began so funnily, I must say, the year 2008 has also brought upon more photos of me posing with my signature pose ever since I started my style of posing. People always say smile at the camera, I always say, Look Cool at the camera. Don’t believe me, you can try it the next time. (of course, in due time, those poses are very rare due to influences by certain people who made me pose in a cuter way…. )

Yes, signature pose of this flies way back to Year 2006 I supposed when I first gave the public a glimpse of this blogger name Daniel Chew or more known as danielctw but now looking back at how my blog has changed its course of direction really baffles me. People change don’t they, well, I hope I changed for the better though. Ahhh… now, those shades were gone though, broke it in Redang Island. Dang…

Now what about this year, I guessed instead of being long winded, I can summarized what I am aiming for (blindlessly) with these photos.

Last But Not Least……… I am going for this….. ultimate new year 2009….
Wa Tahhhhhhh~~~~~~

I was a Bruce Lee fanatic during my primary school years, so many more months to come. Wonder how will the people responses be if I were to appear like that. Hahaha with all three combined..

By the way welcome year 2009 and may this year be the year I finally learnt my lesson. May this year 2009 also brings me what other adventures that will be.
