The Drive of Life" (歲月風雲)
"The Drive of Life" (Chinese: 歲月風雲) is a TVB 60-episode Grand production, specially filmed to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of The Handover of Hong Kong back to Mainland China from Great Britain 1997-2007. It is a joint production of TVB (Hong Kong) and CCTV (Mainland China). The theme of the series revolves around the automobile industry in China. Told in flashback from 1994, the ups and downs and transformations that Hong Kong has been experiencing before and after the handover is used as a narrative device. The series has finished airing in Hong Kong (airing started on July 16th, 2007).
The series was filmed in Hong Kong, Beijing, Ningbo, and Vancouver from early October 2006 until May 2007. The automobiles featured in the series are from Geely Automobile.
The story is about Wah Man-Hon ( Lau Chung Yan, Damian ), Wah Man-Hung (Liao Jing Sheng) and Wah Man-Shek (Miu Kiu Wai) were all born in mainland China. But as a result of the massive political upheaval and the profound misunderstanding among them, the three brothers have fallen out and now live apart in Hong Kong, Beijing and Canada respectively.
Hon’s business goes down the pan in the aftermath of the Asian Financial Turmoil. The only saving grace is that members of the Wah's from around the world, including Hon’s son Wah Chun-Bong ( Lam, Raymond ) and Hung’s son Wah Chun-Man (Feng Shao Feng), can finally put their prejudice aside and become reconciled with one another. To realize the century-old dream of the family, they decide to work together to develop the local automobile industry. After ten years of struggle, the Wahs have established its own brand of limousine – a brand the whole Chinese nation is proud of. They make a significant and ongoing contribution to China’s automobile industry for they believe that only cars of our own will take us to a better future.

Go Travel - SABAH
I have been staying in Sabah for the past three years and i found a lot of things i may not know about Sabah.. and recently 8tv had posted some of the clips of Sabah that i think it is interesting to share with you guys. For those haven been, maybe you will be interested in Sabah le.. a nice trip. Is a very nice intro on Sabah by Henley and Siau Yuen.. hehe..
Nicholas Teo- Prince
Though this album is released a bit long liao.. i think on July.. i love this album so much.. so us good for me to review them for those fans that haven buy this album yet.
Nicholas Teo is trying to get rid of his boy-next-door image through this album. He has t
ried and attempted new styles, but not completely off his image. For those who have always been into his ballads, it still takes up a major part of this album so no worries, and for those who have been looking for new things, there are a few tracks which may keep you exicted.The first track 游戏 is something i, personally, would never expect coming from Nicholas Teo, basing it on his previous albums, which were all very soothing ballads. 游戏 has a relatively quicker tempo as compared to the rest of the songs in the album. It is a total different from the classic Nicholas Teo. Personally, i like this track quite a bit. Although there is this bit whereby he just repeats the same thing over and over again (which is quite similar to Mayday’s 为爱而生）, i think it has quite a great impact and brings out the 游戏 feeling, leaving me feeling really light-hearted after listening to it.
The 2nd track, 错了再错,brings back the Nicholas Teo we are all familiar with, although i personally would say i prefer the ballads in his previous albums, like 当你孤单你会想起谁 and 痛彻心扉. This song is at most slightly above average. It is really safe, but yet not as good as the other ballads. I personally dislike the bridge. Somehow it spoils the whole song for me.
Next up is 王子, the first hit of the album. A very obvious change, the first time he tried rapping, and yet i would say he did a pretty good job on this song, although i personally think the rapping was really forced. i mean it could have been done without, but just added in for him to try it out. He managed to nicely show the arrogance, the i-do-what-i-want attitude, and yet not make people irritated at the arrogance.
幸福的理由is the next track. it started off good for me. but after the 2nd line of the chorus, the whole image of it just fell. it did get slightly better after listening to it for a few times, but the thing about the song is that once you actually start thinking that it sounds quite alright, there has to be something to spoil the impression of it. 如果 and 陌路 brings you back to the old Nicholas Teo once again. The difference is that these songs are the kinds where you would like them more and more, after listening to it a few times over, unlike those which you would like after listening to it once through. I really enjoy the chorus of 如果. and 陌路just sounded good. as compared to 错了再错,i would say i prefer this 2 songs. they are really safe too, but i personally think it was a better job done, in terms of composing, the bringing out of emotions and the end product.
Track 7, Super Idol. Quite up-beat, but i personally didnt really enjoy the start, but as it went on, it got on quite well. It didnt sound that bad, but not that good either. i would say, slightly below average.
Track 8, 其实幸福很简单. another ballad, but really soothing and has the calming effect, makes you forget everything else. although there are parts where it sounds really strange, the remaining of the song covers up for it. It is close to my favourite track in the album. Track 9, 相信. the verses are good, the chorus fitted in, but the chorus didnt sound that good, to the extent that it sounded weird. However i would say that the overall effect is quite good, though it carries the same kind of atmosphere as quite a number of the previous songs. For people who need variety, they should be quite bored by this track.
The 2nd last track, 晚安，宝贝. the prelude brings back childhood memories, where you listen to lullabies every night before sleeping. it is really really soothing. If you would just close your eyes and let the song fill the whole room, you would really enjoy it. It isnt to the extent whereby you will fall asleep, but it really helps to relax. And the last track 北极星的眼泪. It was the theme song for the drama 微笑Pasta, and also recorded in the OST. this is a really wonderful ballad. It is like his normal ballads, like 当你孤单你会想起谁and 只因为你. for those who enjoyed those ballads, you would enjoy this song too. Currently it remains my favourite song in the album.
Overall, i would say it is a good attempt to get rid of his image, with songs like 王子 and 游戏. but other than that, the style is really repeated. It is a good album, but there is not much variety in it, other than a few attempts to steer away from his image. However, i will have to say that i personally enjoyed this album more than his first 2. Generally, i did enjoy the album, and would rate it a 9 out of 10.

Penang Hokkien mee
Nothing beats on a lazy Sunday morning than to stroll along the popular streets of Penang and to try out Penang famous dish - "Hokkien mee". Arguably Penang most favored dish, Hokkien mee or "Prawn noodles" has long been one of the favorites' among the locals.
There are two version of Hokkien mee in Penang - One is the soup base and the others are the dry type. Ask any Penangites what is their definition of Hokkien mee andyou'll definitely get the same answer. It's a blanched "bee hoon" or "mee" and added with crunchy bean sprouts, kangkung, eggs and sliced prawns with meat laid on top.Together with the good aromatic stock made from prawns, onion, chili paste and served with a sprinkling of fragrant "eu chang" - Shallot fritters, it is the perfect blend which made up the delicious Hokkien mee.
The dry version is called "Hokkien char" by the locals and it is made with fat noodles dried with dark soya sauce and eaten with sambal belacan. A slightly different taste but it is just as delicious.In the olden days, Hokkien mee sellers usually push or cycle their stall along the neighborhood "calling out" loud to tell people about their particular dish, but today the location are fixed at either coffee shops or hawker centreThroughout the island, you can find many places selling Hokkien mee. From Teluk Bahang to Jelutong and from Balik Pulau to Air Itam. The famous ones are perhaps located at Pulau Tikus and Perak Road Market. They have halal or non-halal version of Hokkien mee and is served together with additional top up such as chicken feet, spare ribs, intestines and others ingredients.
em.. for me my choice for yummy Hokkien Mee will be a few... is Pulau Tikus Market ( Swee Kang Coffee Shop, Cathay In Pulau Tikus and lastly will be the one in Yee Hong near BJ)
Penang Nyonya curry noodles
Penang curry noodles is serve with cube of pig's blood jelly, squid, cockles, prawns, bean sprouts, toufu puff and of course the delicious curry gravy. Some places have additional toppings such as curry chicken. And with a handful of fresh mint leaves on top, it makes the perfect blend of Penang very own curry mee.
Believe me; curry noodle is best eaten when it's hot and spicy. So, don't be shy to ask for more chili and prepare yourself with some tissue paper to wipe out the sweat coming from your face.Penang curry noodles is available almost everywhere in Penang with each place have their own recipe and special appeal.
A bowl of curry noodles normally cost about RM2.50 to RM3 and can get up to RM6 for additional topping of prawn, cuttlefish and others ingredients.One of the famous place for curry noodles lovers in Penang will be at in the Air Itam Market.This place has become so famous in Penang that it has come to be regarded Penang very own curry mee. This place are well known and sometimes the seat will be fully occupied but trust me, the wait will be worthwhile.
Chee Cheong Fun
A rice noodle roll (also translated as steamed rice roll) is a Cantonese dish from southern China and Hong Kong, commonly served as a variety of dim sum. It is a thin roll made from a wide strip of Shahe fen (rice noodles), filled with shrimp, pork, vegetables, or other ingredients. Sweet soy sauce is poured over the dish upon serving. A very similar dish is the Vietnamese bánh cuốn.
The rice noodle sheets are made from a viscous mixture of rice flour and water. This liquid is poured onto a specially-made flat pan in which it is steamed to produce the square rice sheets. Chee cheong fun can be served with different flavour of sauce.
The one i love the most will be Pulau Tikus market one.. thats my love ones... of chee cheong fun
