I have been told that my amway membership is expiring soon, and therefore, we were planning to renew it (for membership purpose, the first time, you may need to pay RM 85.00 I think, and RM 35.00 in the second membership year, and you will get a RM 10,000 insurance). There is this new Amway building where I think it is worth paying a visit, and yet someone told me that they are going to have a mini supermarket to sell their suppliments and other products in that building itself. As soon as we reached to Amway centre, I realized that my sister has an existing account (we usually purchase and consume Amway suppliments, and have been more than 20 years now). Therefore, instead of renewing my acccount, we went to the building to close my account (one advantages that causes me to feel that Amway is a reliable company because they are willing to pay you back the amount that you spend if you dislike some of their products and / or membership). Finally, I am free from Amway again. Since we only consume the suppliments, and not working as a direct sales for Amway, so if anyone interested to have an Amway membership, either (1) contact the Amway directly yourself, or (2) I can introduce you to some friends :)

Later in the afternoon, we went to grandparent's home to meet up with Liz. After observing the picture (in the below) for a number of times, I realized that she is quite tall. She is not wearing a high heel shoes in the picture, and if she do, she will looks taller than me :)

Since it is Saturday on that day, we have decided to have some fun. This time, my younger cousin brother followed us along. If you look carefully at the picture (below), you will observe a little 'devil' trying to massage my grandma lol. That little devil is him, and his name is Adam Lim. Seriously, he is a very cute and shy person, except he cried very often and will get offended very easily. Probably he is still a little kid of age 6. One special talent that he has, that is his mathematical calculation is brilliant. I assume if his parents willing to spend more money to allow him to study abroad in mathematical area in the future, he should have a bright future in this field (related to mathematics, i.e. scientist, mathematicians, like Einstein? :O and etc).

Anyway, firstly, we went for dinner in a restaurant. They ordered a lot of dishes. This time, we have chicken, fish, vegetables, what else, hmm, I think one of the dish is yam, and some mixture of seafoods. Thumbs up! I really love the chinese foods in Malaysia if I rate it based on the price and quality, of course, compared to the foods in the UK.

After the dinner, we have decided to walk around the nightmarket. As usual, I am not really interested in walking in a nightmarket, probably due to the heat. The weather in Malaysia is always warm, very warm, and I assume the temperature should be around 34 degree celcius throughout the year. They sell many things in the nightmarket, similar to the Wembley morning market in London, UK, except the nightmarket in malaysia has more stuffs for sale, and at a more cheaper price.

Then, we went to IKEA. Usually, people will go to IKEA to buy furnitures. Our mission is different. Instead, we went there for free drinks, lol. Anyone who has an IKEA friendcard (mastercard) can have free drinks, such as coffee, tea and soft drinks (as much as you want). If you look at my grandpa, he drank at least 3 cups of coffee on that day, and complained that he could not sleep at night, lol. As a result, greediness will not bring a person anywhere.

We went home at approximately 12:00 AM that night. My uncle bought some bluray cd's, and asked us to watch that movie produced by Mel Gibson, namely Apocalypto. I rate it as an excellent movie. This is really a good movie to me, and I strongly suggest people who has not watch this movie, should spend 2-3 hours watching it. As for dessert, he asked us to try out some of the fruits (this is the first time I have ever seen a fruit like that) that he bought from his friends. I heard it is very expensive. RM 18.00 per kilogram (that is almost £3.50 per KG).

This unknown tropical fruit, is a fruit that looks similar to a 'natal-plum'. Someone named it as "buah susu" in Malay, and if you interprete it into english, a "buah susu" means milk fruit. I do not see a drip of milk in this fruit and so, I think that is not the right name for this fruit. According to my uncle's friend, this fruit is a very famous fruit in Brazil and Indonesia. This fruit is very nutritious, especially for girls. I have asked, will eating this fruit be beneficial for guys and he said "not that I know, but it is very beneficial for girls who eat them". For girls, consuming this fruit will provide them a better skin texture / complexion. One of my friend told me the name of the fruit is called "Maracuja" (or called Maracuya in Spanish), is a type of juicy passion fruit, a native to South America and widely grown in different countries such as India, New Zeland, the Carribbean, Brazil, colombia, Ecuador, Indonesia, Califonia, southern Florida, Hawaii, Australia, East Africa, Israel and South Africa. Thanks to Swee Ling for the information.

I think i did mentioned to Liz about the importance of this fruit to her, and I think I did mentioned about the 'buah susu' (milk fruit) thing, sounded like will enhance a ladies *cough* and that is why she has this facial expression when eating the fruit? I might be wrong though :)

It may look a little gross to you, and you may eat the whole inner section of the fruit, and yes, including the juicy seeds. Chew the seeds well, and swallow it. The fruit tastes like mango, except the texture of the fruit (the eatable section) looks more like the softer version of a pomegranate. We finish watching the movies at around 3:00 AM. Surprisingly, I met my uncle's cousin brother. I have not seen him for quite some time now. Last I heard he went to Johor (a state in Malaysia that was located near to Singapore) and build his career there.

Lastly, this picture is for my younger brother who is currently staying in the UK. This is also one his favourite vegetable. In fact, he hated this vegetable, but on purpose, I named this as his 'favourite vege' lol. However, he can not get mad at me because both Liz and I have agreed to capture the picture of this vegetable for blogging purpose, specifically for him to read :)
