Here's another clock I snapped at Metrojaya in Midvalley. It has a nice racing feel to it. It was discounted to about RM20.

Delicious noodles
Here is a bunch of things from my recent trip to Hong Kong. The first is this plate of noodles. Maybe it was because we were starving but this plate of wan tan mee - our first meal in HK was quite delicious. My only regret was that I couldn't finish the plate. HKD30
New places unsual things
I love being taken away from normalcy. When you're in a foreign country even ordinary things seem exciting and new. Here's a HK vending machine with labels of drinks I've never tried.
Lotsa food in HK
We ate lots of nice things in Hong Kong include this Pau from a Dim Sum place. It's filled with sugary custard. Very sinful and ultra delicious. We ate lots and the bill came up to HKD130 for 3 people. Very reasonable.
Silk tie galore
Check out the tie at the end with the ancient Chinese writing. I think the ties were selling for HKD100 for 4. Too bad I don't wear ties.

Imitation bag
HK is full of imitation bags and you may recognize this one. It's so yellow and black that I'd consider using it myself.
Delicious mango pudding
HK is famous also for these delicious mango puddings. Mango's are great but I especially like the Philippine mangoes. This one was nice too. I think this particular bowl cost around HKD20.
Guess what this is
Guess what this device strapped to a pole in the street does? Well at a cross walk you look at the green man to know when its ok to cross. If you're blind, maybe you listen for a walk siren which is a repeating tone at a particular speed. If you're blind and deaf, you put your finger underneath this device, and feel its vibrations. Amazing.
Bart head
Even Bruce Lee likes it
The greatest martial art hero likes yellow and black. Bruce Lee is great because he doesn't just play a kung fu warrior in the movies, he IS one in real life. If you watch his biography, you'd know that he developed a martial arts style called Jeet Kune Do. He was said to be able to punch a guy across a room by moving his fist just 1 inch. This is a wax figure of him at Madame Tussaud in HK.

Time for more yellow and black
Saw a big add for this watch at Landmark on Makati Avenue. Then I saw it in the counter. It's actually kinda ugly - but its Nike and its yellow and black. My guess is around PHP800. I could be totally off.

Want.... I want....
Whenever I go to the Philippines, I always check ebay for something to buy. I saw this PSP Simpson special edition for PHP12,500. Oh I want it so bad. This photo was taken from a shop. It's yellow and it comes with the Simpson's game on UMD. It's a special limited edition PSP only available in Europe.
Item: Philippines, PSP
Trendy
Pinays are quite trendy sometimes. And I've always liked Kenneth Cole stuff. My sis gave me a Kenneth Cole toiletries bag and I love it. These are yellow Kenneth Cole ladies handbags I saw at Rustan's in Glorietta. Knowing Kenneth Cole, these costs a lot. Maybe PHP10k?

Furniture too
The Phillippines has some nice furniture including this yellow chair. I think the frame is steel but the material is some sort of leather. Guess pricing around PHP3500 per chair.

Milestone
I've surpassed 100 posts with this one. Since I travel, I not only see yellow and black things in my home country of Malaysia but I also pick up stuff from places I visit. I'm not saying these things you can only get in those countries, only that they exist there as well. First an adidas bag from the Philippines. Don't know the cost for this one. Estimate it at PHP300.
