Manuel, he is from Barcelona.
[what are you thinking when you first read the title?]
Dear my HP baby, when you will be coming home?
My laptop died on me before 2007. I sent it all the way to Osbourne Park to get a new hard drive replaced for free. Apparently, I was told that my insurance company willing to take out that 60Gig ‘heart’ and substituted with 120G new heart!
How exciting is that?
Ok, this is the funny bit, probably just for me and Fawlty Tower’s fans.
The guy who is dealing with my baby is called Manuel !!!!!
He rang the other day.
Me: hello there! Cynthia speaking.
Manuel: Hello. My name is Manuel.. calling from ….
I started my words way before he managed to continue.
Me: MANUEL?? ARE YOU FROM BARCELONA?!!!! 
Manuel: …(silent and pause for a few seconds)…
I know. This is hell embarassing. But, seriously, I just can’t get Manuel out of my head! =)
By chance, if any of you seen Fawlty Tower before? If you haven’t, you should watch it!!! It is hell funny classic BBC comedy!!!!!! I’ve been watching it for countless time and I can talk like almost everybody in the cast especially Sybil !!

Hair ETC, Northbridge
The long wait for Kian getting his hair cut.
I can’t do nutsfink for 3 hours and I’m glad I carried a book with me. As usual.
Photo talk: this is my favorite photo. The little thing I like in this photo is the end point of the book (and numbers 114) is quite exact in the middle of the frame. If you see what I see)
Another one. I can’t possibly turn the ‘Oakley’ sign any further as it’s going to look un-natural.
Me: Hey Mr. K! What’s the time now? :)

Pancakes At Carillon, Perth
Me and Kian heading down to the town to get some stuffs organised. Since we were there, I decided to have some lunch in Perth.
Pancakes at Carillon is famous for pancakes –both sweet and savory (crepes). The! Obvisouly!
Mine. Some seafood crepe.
The photo look awesomely rich, right? It tastes like the photo as well- high in fat, salt, protein, carb and fibre. I love the crepe, but I reckon the creams were abit too much.
Kian’s portion. Some Mexican savory crepe. Similiarly, abit the too rich. Good for him thou. Kian is that type of person who can EAT (everything) ALL DAY LONG and doesn’t even gain a blardy sinlge miligrams.
I strongly dislike this type of people. Guess what annoy me more? The fats come to his girlfriend!! pffft. Don’t tell me this is Karma too. =.=”’
Some photo of me. I love pictures from different angle. I always wanting to take photos for other people..but not much that sorta ppl around me. At the end, me self-pose. Fair enough?
Yeah… you not mean to perv on *something*
*something* that occurs naturally if you get what I mean. Nah..I just think it is funny to put up that sequence.
Alright…
Till then, I like to finish up this post with a glass of still water with a slice of lemon to go with.
Yeah..after so many creamy food, drinking lotsa water is very essential. *blurp*
Cheers!

Cheap Tuesday Movie Night
For the past TWO hours, I’ve been…..
Indulging myself in that frictional romantic movie
Giggling over Jude Law’s sexy smile
Locking our fingers together in the dark theater
Feeling your rhythm of heart beat.
You know what, ney? I’m glad I’m still here. With you. Breathing.

Manda* ’s Hen’s Night
Hello Hello Hello! I did mention I was attending a hardcore party, didn’t I? Oh! It wasn’t just hardcore..it is pfft hardc#ck too!!! 
I had an fabuloutastic night out. I must say this is a cultural-shockingly eye-opening experience. It was so WOW and WHOAAA!!
I was invited to a Hen Night, which is also refered as Bachelorette party. *wink* very first Hen Night in my life. Manda* is soon-to-be Mrs. John the Crazy Pharmacist.
Oops, before showing you all the pictures, I must shamelessly show off my new dress. Hey! Please allow me to do so, can? This is my 2nd dress since 5 years ago. I bought this at bargain shopping for very very affordably low price! I’m so happy. Nice? (i’m asking you to look at my dress, not something else!)
Let’s get the party start, shall we?
The bride-to-be, Manda* and close friends.
The SR gals.
Me and Ammo*
And Rhee*
A bouqutte flower that all the bride-to-be deserved.
Cheeckily… If you haven’t notice naughty part.
Come on! It is a BACHELORETTE PARTY!!! Girls just wanna have fun~!
The SR gals with Manda. She looks absolutely gorgeous.
The party started off with game and music. Turn out in the middle of nowhere, there was an entertainer showing up. *.^ Oh well, You know huh. I tell you, my heart was pumping like madcow. Undirectedly. In case you asking, nah! it IS very small.
The second game was ‘Pin The Cucumber On The Hunk’. Hehe.. the name says it all.
G*, Manda*’s cousin(?) who organised the whole event did a very good job. We all had so much fun from the beginning till the end of the event. one thing I must mention, G* has this endless energy, smile and spirit that you would love to get close with. That charisma–priceless!
The game is basically like this, they make you wear a eye mask, and turn you around.
Oh! That plastic thingy…is cucumber.
And you stick the cucumber to the BEST spot. The most accurate one wins the price.
Guess what? I am the WINNER~!! Woohoo~! How cool is that?
This hunk rocks!
The second game was cutting the best shape of *cough cough* with the cucumber.
Seriously, this is not an easy task. I don’t think Jamie Oliver can do any better than this.
The last game was…see for yourself. :) Hint: Slimmey rubber ballon!
OK. I need to grow UP! I appeared to be soooo short among everyone. This is Karma or what? I must ask my mum.
Me and Manda*, the bride-to-be.
Hey Manda*! Thanks for your invitation. It is a fantastic night. I would never ever forget this. Good luck with the wedding! Don’t get stressed out! Wish you and John the Crazy Pharmacist living happily ever after.*mwah*
John the Crazy Pharmacist!!!! You lucky bastard!!!!!!!!!

The Left Bank, North Fremantle
The previous posts are all about gathering, meeting and cathing up with friends. But toward end of 2006, I had to farewell with some good friends and work mates as well.
What a life, eh? – People come, and people go.
I try not to put up a big *sigh* for all these things…’cause at the end of the day, deep down under my heart, I must admit, I am afraid that I am not being appreciated. And at the end of the day, I will be staying alone in the dark corner..with my own shadow. Sometimes, I wonder myself, am I too afraid to loose everything? or I am scared that I never get anything, never being appreciated? or I’m just too afraid to being accepted and apprciated? Or..I am just pushing all the good wills coming toward my way..or there isn’t any, anyway? I wonder…
Cut! Cut! Cut!! Big ‘NG’ for being so dramatised and traumatised.
Back to The Left Bank, shall we?
The view was absolutely beautiful. Breathtaking.
I took this picture…It meant to be nicer if I could chop the free off ;) Haha
S*, one of my colleagues whom I used to work with. He and his he-thinks-that’s-unique ring. Pfft. I reckcon that’s g*y. Haha. You know what I mean?
With the gals..
The one of the left, N*, is the one leaving to the East. Hi N*, if you are reading this, just letting you know that I miss you. Oh yeah, I know you miss me too. *smile*
With Cha*
Cha* took a picture of me. Classic!
With other fabulous hot chicks from other store.. I know I am damn lucky working with a bunch of nice people. I call this Karma. Muahahaha.
My friends all know I am obssessed with pictures. I took photo from different angle.
So …guess where and how I took this picture?
No price even you got it right.
With all the girls, ladies and woman.
Sunset.
That’s all for The Left Bank. I don’t want to get myself into toooo emo.
You all have a nice weekend, will ya?
I will post up more pictures tomorrow, if I survived from a hard-core party tonight.

Utopia(s), Northbridge
Short talk: Today is the 5th day of 2007. My NY resolution is: NO SWEARING. So far so good. I am proud of myself. No F, words, no S, No kxxxxx… yet. I think it is not hard to do it after all. You should try to—not swear.
Again, another back post. Don’t click the X first!!! I have nice pictures to show you. =)
I added a ‘(S)’ at the end of Utopia because there are two Utopias, technically.
One of the upstair–serving vegetarian food, vegetarian bubble tea of course. On earth you get me meatarian bubble tea They have funcky Karaoke thingy as well.
I went over with my friends for lunch. I fancy their vegetarian lunch alot! There was one time, when I obsessed with meat..but this Summer, I’m into green vege so much. How much? Wait till you see my next posts…I bet you will be amazed. Big time.
Don’t look at the food. I am not typically sending off the message like this: Today, I eat this and that. It tastes yummie..That is a bit g*y. It does happen to me too, ok? But not today. ;p I’m not into that g-mode.
I want you to look at the plate they served, not the food yet. Innit like the one in prison or hospital right? “si-si-fang-fang”–squarish, rectangularish shaped serving plate. Maybe not prison, as if me and you all have been into prison. Haha. Royal Perth Hospital does use this type of plate, except in oval shape.
Now..I adjust my camera into some special setting..and this is the time you LOOK AT THE FOOD[!] aka–picture quality and my food-camwhoring skill!! ;P
WAH LAU! I know! My pictures damn nice!!! Hahah *breath in..breath out*
I’m not into fake meat at all. I like tofu and vege. Simple as that. Anyway, I don’t go against others and question the use of fake meat among religious people. Bear this in mind, fake meat is designed for non-religious people who is trying to go into vegan. Simple as that.
So, in the future, don’t you ask: why the Buddhist or Taoist monk or people eat ‘meat’? they are not. If they do, it is NOT your problem either. Plus, one person doesn’t represent the whole religion, gettit? We learn how to respect the others from our cuisine too, right? ;P
Ok, back to the non-food thing. Me hang out with the big boys.
Dave..
and C*
Utopia –downstair. This Utopia sells only bubble tea.
Have a quick look at the inside.
Very modern Oriental design…I shall say. With the wrong code for the location..makes it even funnier to watch. So utopia~ ..not? Haha
Ok! I don’t like this! This doll is used as bubble tea shaker. Very creeeeepy. It reminds me of Child Play, that scary movie. Pffft! What a nightmare. =.=”’
The front counter where the shop owner display multiple ingredients used in the drink. My favorite drink from Utopia is Red Bean Snow (Ice)–All time favorite. So,you know what to buy me when we go down there, ok? *wink*
Another favorite picture! Check it out!! See what I found!!! The ONLY YELLOW drinking straw among the others! Very ‘yi4 zhi1 du2 xiu4′–increadibly outsanding!!
For your information, or you haven’t know me well enough, my favourite color is awesome yellow– the sunshine color
OK! Back to some human picture.
This is Dave’s mom. She kindly asked me to do an ad for his son–’looking for a wife’ sorta ad. =.=”’
Mama Dave said: I want my son get a gf like you…
Me: Aunty! Like that hor..I don’t think Dave can find one *touch wood*, ‘cos there is only one ‘me’ Hahah!!
Mama Dave is very funny. We talked about everything..just like a girlfriend thingy. Very very cool mom.
This is the typical ‘pai1 pai1 zhuo4′ picture–high school and yet very classic!
Erm…this is my second post for today. I think I’m addicted.
See how’s it go tonight…I try to catch up with more, if possible. Cool?
You have a great time and make sure you don’t miss out my sweat, blood and tears-post, ok? Hahah

Some Catching-Ups –Late Arvo, Late Night & Late Lunch
Those pictures and juicy juicy details meant to be posted like… at least 1 and 1/2 month ago! Aw mann.. when I look back all the pictures, I realise I’m soooo behind of blogging.
I met up with these people before they went to oversea for holiday; I guess some of them probably heading back to Perth already. *shame on you, cynth* Yeah, this is how ‘behind’ I’m at the moment. Mind you, I haven’t post my new cooking, new food, and quite a few more gathering pictures.
Part 1:
Meeting up with Charmaine and Jon.
Jon is the one helping me with my weblog. No Jon, no cynthiafoo.com
Charmaine is another Perth blogger I meet.
Some camwhoring session … We *heart* camwhore, don’t we? or prabably just me ;P
Did I mention we went to Ciao Italia? It is local famous Italian Restaurant.
Yeah..You all know what Italians eat right?…
This,
This..
And THIS!!!!!
Part 2:
Meeting up with Marcus, yeah…another bloody blogger friend whom I meet.
No! No! No! I don’t promote alcoholism. Kian took this picture, just thought it turns out well, so I post it up. Be honest, I don’t feel particulary proud at all showing people that I can drink or something. This concept is sooo wrong. Drinking is part of social life, I must admit. But not that kinda of ’showing-off’ thingy with that sort of ah-lianism and ah-bengism. I reckon this type of ’showing-off’ is abit weird.
Part 3:
Makcik Nadia!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have lotsa things in common–the girlish and the womanish thingy. Aw man! 2 hours talking and eating obviously wasn’t enough. But I reckon Kian had quite enough hearing all the girly things..abit of earful. Haha
Note:
By the way, we all used to introduce each other as blogger friends..please lar! this is a bit lame, k? we are friends now…right? New year, new term!
So, I guess I will catch up with you all again when you guys are back? *wink*
