Movie

I wonder if you have watched the movie “Avatar” by the time you read this blog. If you haven’t then all I have to say to you is, “Wa ha ha ha.. What have u been doing my friend. You miss out all the good stuff”. It’s probably one of the most brilliant movies in recent years and I am duly impressed. Talking about movies, I have watched 29 movies this year to date as opposed to an average of 45 in the past 4 years. How many have you watched?

Offices

Further to blog dated 3rd of Dec 09, I have managed to reduce my documents & wine storage from 4 to 2. This took me tones of effort. Would like to take this opportunity to show my gratitude to Ken for helping me move the office (although he is kind of being force to help since he kind of show up at the wrong place at the wrong time, … twice).

Small World

I bang into one of my primary class mate who has been working opposite my new shop for over three years. Apparently they are a wallpaper company, who has the exact wallpaper that I have been searching for months. Who would have expected that the thing I am looking for is just in front of my nose.

Cholesterol & Wine

The blood test results are out. Most results appear to be in control with the exception of rather high cholesterol. It looks like I should consume a lot more red wines. Oh gosh, I just realize I was surrounded by some 400 bottles of wines. Who wish to join me? (Make sure your wallet is loaded with cash though haha).

Talking about wines, it is getting rather annoying with my documents & wines stored in 4 difference places (2 home and 2 offices). I should spent the next two weeks to reduce to just one. After all, a home should just be a house without any after working hour’s documents.

Opening Soon

The Wine Shop is opening soon despite not yet awarded a name. Soon it will be restored to the following condition, or perhaps even better. To find out more, please tune in to johnnykoo.blogspot.com :)



Please drop us some comment if you have any brilliant (or silly) suggestions.

Blood Test

I just had my blood test done yesterday. It’s the first test I have in 2 years and let’s hope everything is fine. Drawing blood is not as pain as I once experience some 18 years ago, which I pass out if my memory serve me well. Talking about pain, there’s total of 12 levels of pain, in which level 1 is mosquitoes bite and level 12 is woman giving birth. Guess what’s level 13?

Wine Gala

We attended the "Wine Gala" at Lake Club over the weekend. There are no shortage of wines for tasting, with 8 wine merchant (myself not included) and each merchant has about 5-7 wines for tasting. Unfortunately most of the wines are pretty ordinary with the exception of following Portugal wine. We don't carry this but we still think its worthwhile trying at RM 150 a bottle- Terra do Zambujeiro 2003

Badminton

Following playing ping pong for the first time in three years, last night I played badminton for the first time in six months. Talking about body sore, I have it all over my body the following morning. Played poorly once again, but of course it’s due to the poor lighting, the loosening strings on the racket and the hardness of the floor.

Ping Pong

Just played my first table tennis game in about three years. My opponent, well, is the same guy I used to bully back in eleven years ago. We both play poorly, although one can blame on the shoes whilst the other can blame on the bat (or the floor, which is really hard too). Nonetheless, it does bring back some great memories and we look forward to play more regularly in coming future.


Who is bullying who now?

Names

I have been trying hard to think of a name for a wine & cheese shop. Anyone with any idea, please feel free to share. It doesn’t matter if it is brilliant or silly. The last I heard is someone suggested to put a cheese and a mouse on the signboard. Cute idea (Cute: ugly but adorable).

Bkt Melawati

We have just successfully climbed Mount Melawati yesterday. This is the first training exercise for next year’s great vision of climbing KK. It took us some 4-5 hours, however, I felt more difficult than my last visit three years ago. It could be aging, or the slightly more difficult route that we took (probably a better excuse for me). Nonetheless, I’ll plan for hill climbing exercise monthly basis and hopefully I’ll be as strong as an ox come mid next year. Next stop: Mount Dato perhaps?
