One afternoon when I was about to have lunch in Kampung Baru, I received a call from Isabelle. It was about planning a surprise birthday dinner for her hubby, Syam and for Mama Pasha. Both of their birthdays were only 5 days apart. Mama Pasha’s was on August 12 and Syam’s was on August 18. To make things less obvious, we finally decided to do it on August 17 at TGIF Subang Jaya…
The outcome. 100% success to surprise Mama Pasha but not a full surprise for Syam. The reason was due to spoilers provided by none other than the little Adam..
By the way, we chose TGIF since we knew that they would always do “stuffs” to those who celebrated their birthdays there… In this case Mama Pasha and Syam had to sing a song each… Only is you could hear what Syam sang… LOL!
Here are some photos of that night. Pictures ambil tanpa kebenaran dari blog Isabelle… Jangan marah! Nice shots and free “promotion” from us
If you need a cameraman, you know where to find one. <– advertisement.

Excitement on receiving a new, much needed gadget and a little card from Isabelle and family. Pasha helped in unwrapping…

Pasha and Mama laughing about something.
Adam chasing Pasha all over TGIF.

Isabelle, Adam making faces and Syam and all of us!
It was a great dinner and time for all and for both Isabelle and Papa Bear, we know where NOT to have our birthday dinner at…
Surprise!

My last post was about 10 days ago. By the way, the last post in Bahasa Indonesia was written by Mama Pasha and not Papa Bear. Some of you thought that Papa Bear wrote an entry in Bahasa Indonesia. No No No… That’s Mama Pasha. Look carefully at the author ya.
Anyway, I have not been blogging and blog walking since my last entry. The reason was due to the fact that our router that connected us to the SOMA Port broadband modem from Jaring got hit by lightning. It went cuckoo. LAN was OK but Internet kaput-ted… So, instead on investing on another router and face the uncertainty of compatibility with the SOMA Port, I signed up for P1. But, no need to potong since the Jaring broadband was wireless as well…
This is not the first time I tried P1. You can read about my first P1 experience here. They told me that they would be upgrading my area and they did keep their words. MAXIS told me that they are going to upgrade my area by July 2010 and they failed. UniFi is the worst of all. They went silence…

DX-230 replacing DV-230
So, now, this entry was posted via P1. Just finished setting up the Wi-Fi security and things look good so far for a 1.2Mbps connection. Why ditched Jaring? The main reason is that the SOMA Port is a single user modem. You need a router to share the connection but Jaring does not support this. We have 3 computers at home that need the internet… If you hit a problem when connecting via a router, they simply refused to provide any support. They would ask you to remove the router first. Well, now I removed them… Too bad…
Hope that this P1 would remain as good as it is now. My neighbor at the back said that she has no issue so far. My friend somewhere at the end of the world around Rawang said he is a satisfied customer. Let’ see…

Mama Pasha was under the weather and therefore, we did not go out to any Bazaar Ramadhan. I just went to the club house and there was only one table opened. Nasi Minyak was the only food sold and I bought it.

Nasi Minyak and Rendang Ayam aka Chicken Rendang.

The Acar that came with the Nasi Minyak was complete with pineapples, cucumbers and onions and Pau Kacang Merah aka Red Bean buns.

Some juicy watermelons and an exhausted Pasha, which is not part of the food…
Selamat Berbuka!
