Torture, From Europe


well, continue from the Melaka Trip ( seems like so much to blog about huh? hahaa...), when we were in the town area, we came across one exhibition and we were greatly attracted by the signboard and banner!

this is the banner. :) interesting eh?

It was the TORTURE Exhibition from Europe countries. It was such a coincident that they were having the exhibition there from 13 Nov 2009 until 21 March 2010 at the Bastion House ( Muzium Dunia Melayu Dunia Islam) next to the A Farmosa Fort. amazing thing was, we were allowed to take pics inside the exhibition! :) cool huh?

So, be prepared what's coming. hehe...it might be a bit scary. :)

cage...with skeleton inside...first thing we saw when entering the door. huhu...scary...

another torturing tool...imagine a human being trapped inside...

burnt to death ( dun worry, the corpse is a fake one...)

this one...stretched until break...and die...aiks...

the Iron Maiden of Nuremberg, well....the victim is locked inside and the doors with points were closed slowly until the victim was penetrated fully....hmmm...and the victim normally did not die immediately but days after....aiks..

and this....the knot of the rope...is actually to be tied to the intestine of the victim, and pulled up slowly...so imagine the intestine coming out slowly from the victim's stomach....*vomit*

another version of the guillotine...smaller version...use hammer and knock one...*shivers*

heavy stone used for various purposes...one of them is tie it to victim's head and throw down the sea? hehe...

the Guillotine...and the masked executor...

chairs with thorns...the small pic besides it explained how it was executed...hmm...



ah...this one...is to drill a hole into a person's head from behind...alive...and conscious...


the Juda's Cradle, the picture explains how it was carried out...scary right? :) and ouch....


knee splitter...to split the knees, rendered the knees useless permanently, can be used for elbow, arms and lower legs.

the mask worn on the victim for certain duration...quite heavy it seems...

Overall, the exhibition was quite scary and "revealing", gain more than enough knowledge about how cruel the ancient people had been. hehe....of course inside there were plenty more punishment methods...too much to be photographed fully. hehehe...if you are around Melaka town, do go and have a look! it's interesting! :)

David's diner in Ipoh

Went to David's Diner at Greentown Square in Ipoh the other day before going for CNY. It was an American style restaurant and thus, the portion of the food served was really huge ( the people serving there were very big size as well! LOL).

the atmosphere in the restaurant, quite american style in a way.

the water melon juice, nice shape and design of the cup. hehe...

mushroom soup as appetizer

or fresh vegetables salad as an alternative ( Garden Salad)

another appetizer, Southwest Egg Rolls

then the main course, grilled chicken with two side dishes- fries and mashed potatoes

another main course, grilled fish with macaroni and baked potatoes

then fried chicken with mixed vege and salad potatoes

their special homemade brownies with ice cream as dessert

another set of brownies with ice cream as dessert.

overall, the food was really great and filling. we ordered set for each one of us and we were really bloated.

Besides, the price for one dinner set was really cheap, it was around RM30 for one set and the set included one drink (juices or others), appetizer (mushroom soup or garden salad), another mouthwasher (egg rolls or others), main course with two side dishes, and dessert ( brownies with ice cream). That's quite cheap for me considering the quality and portion of the food served. and yea, they really serve Truly American Food!

I hope to go there again. hehe..thank God for good food.

Pizza for Chap Goh Meh

It was the last day of Chinese New Year, or some of us we called it "Chap Goh Meh", and some of my friends invited me to join them for dinner to spend the night together. We decided to have Pizzas for the night. hehe...so, we went to Pizza Hut. :)

We ordered Chicken Supreme and Island Supreme for 3 of us. :)

Chicken Supreme pizza

Island Supreme pizza

The meal costed us around RM47 as we ordered combo meal for 4. hehe...it was very filling as there were only 3 of us that night. Personally, i would prefer the Island Supreme over the chicken supreme as the taste is nicer and it has a lot of ingredients in it, especially with pineapple in it. hehehe...

Happy Birthday!


It was Miss Siu Ying's birthday and we decided to go down Ipoh to celebrate for her. As she felt like having Japanese food that day, we decided to go for Japanese Restaurant in Ipoh! It's Tomi Japanese Restaurant located behind Jusco, Ipoh. :D


Miss Siu Ying, can't believe I have known her since primary school, it has been almost 15 years!!! ( i think so. LOL).




those who went for the dinner celebration that day. :D who's the most handsome one? LOL.

yea, that's how much we ate for 4 people. I like the prawn sushi, it's super nice and tasty, i think the prawn was still very fresh when it was served. hehe...

It was a great outing for 4 of us, enjoyed the laughters and also the teasing part. hahaa...hope to have more outings in the future! and yea, happy belated birthday Siu Ying! wish you have a blessed year ahead! hehe..


Fruit Basket

I still remember during my younger days, I always visited my relatives and friends whenever I was having my holidays. Sometimes, I will stay over their houses for a couple of nights to spend time with the friend or my cousins. Somehow, I am the type that like to hang out at people’s houses rather than own house. Perhaps I like the fellowship and spending time, but I do think I need to spend more time with family as well.

Even so, my mother never discouraged me from visiting my friends or relatives; she didn’t mind me spending a couple of nights in my friend’s or relative’s houses as well. But, she would always remind me to bring some present or gifts to the house as an act of manner and respect. According to her, this is a way of showing appreciation to the people we visiting.

But then, I always find it a bit challenging as I don’t really know what kind of gifts I should bring as I am not the gifts-type of person. Anyhow, mothers will always be mothers and they always offer good advices. She told me to bring fruits or sometimes Fruit Basket as they are appropriate and not too luxurious or expensive. Maybe you should try it out too.
