The movie - Avatar

Recently went to watch a movie call Avatar. At first, never plan to watch this movie, because it give me a feeling is just another animation movie. But after so many friends recommendation and newspaper mention is another new era movie, so I decided to watch it.

Went to purchase the ticket from Ecurve, previously used to call as Cineleisure. There is a movie theater name Cathay Cineplexe. The price is quite reasonable, is just RM11 per ticket. Since I have Amex Card, there is extra RM3 discount per ticket. What a good deal :)

What the story about? Firm is set in year 2154 on Pandora, a fincitonal planet. We, humans are mining Pandora's precious mineral. Pandora basiclly is a home to Na'vi, a sentient humanoid race. Jake Sully is a former U.S. Marine who was wounded and paralyzef from the combat on Earth. Jake is selected to particapte in the Avatar program, which will enable him to walk. The Avatar suppose belong to his brother who was pass away. Human are unable to breathe the air on Pandora, therefore they have created genetically-bread human Navi known as Avatar. There is war between human with Na'vi. How Jake decide his destinay? May refer to wikepedia for the film information.

Visit Rawang Memorial Park on Christmas

My uncle had just pass away on 23rd of December. His wife and children decided to bury his body to Rawang Memorial Park. It took around 35 minutes from KL city to Rawang and another 10 minutes to reach Rawang Memorail Park.

My personal feeling of this Memorail park is quite clean, big, and the design is quite good. Services not bad, at least they prepare the umbrellas for us on this hot sunny sun.

You will notice a lot tomb in the park. Is just like hotel, the price list with standard, double standard, deluxe single and deluxe double. Not too sure have penthouse or not.

Flower - Gerbera daisy

I had purchase the Gerbera daisy to my special friend few months back. The reason is that she love this type of flower. But at first, I really have no idea what is about Gerbera daisy at all. By using google search, then only I found out this loverly flower - Garbera Daisy pics



So I decided to find out more what so special about the Gerbera daisy. Then only I know Gerbera under sunflower family. It was named in honor of the German naturalist Traugott Gerber. Is seem that Gerbera is very popular used for decorative gardent plant or as cut flowers. No wonder my special friend love it so much. To know more about the history of Gerbera may go to Wikipedia.

Then I face another challenge. Should I buy online or through shop? Since I have no time to visit the flower shops, I decided to search through online. My god, there are a lot choices there. But I had summarize it to 5 top sites that I personally feel is not bad.

Before that, beside that prices of the flower, I also consider the delivery charges, how many stalks that provide and the bouquet raping style.

List of sites that I consider.

a. Blooming
Desc: (HB52-S) Venus (S)-10 Gerberas/African Daisies & box of Ferrero Rocher Chocolates (T16 200g)
Price: RM108.8 after discount
Delivery charges to the venue: RM50

Price: RM98
Delivery charges to the venue: RM40 to 50

e. Bloom

Delivery charges to the venue: RM40

At the end, I choose flowers even the Gebera slightly expensive compare to Bloom. But the delievery charges is much more lower. It reach to my special friend hand on time too :) Thanks for flowers.

Appreciate that!

So keep in mind when you planning to buy flowers online.
a. Price of the bouquet

d. Any credit card discount?
e. Delivery dates.

Enjoy purchase online!
