The Day

*sigh*
Why am I sighing?
What is wrong with this world?
sorry.. i dont really know what to write...
hm... lets see..
last night...

oh ya...

my uncle treated my family and I to a Dinner... it was a special one..
guess...

It was a GinSeng dinner..
HUH? ginseng?
let me describe it a bit..
EVERYTHING!!!! i really mean it.. EVERYTHING was BITTER!!! EWWW!!!
the tea....( u know la... chinese restaurant  ma, non-stop flow of the usual chinese tea, but then since it's a ginseng themed dinner, the tea was made out of ginseng...) ****(use ur imagination properly) them(the organizers..)
and then, there was the emcee... crappy old man.. he just cant stop babbling about the wonders of consuming Ginseng, pullin in "uncle Lim", and some TVB guy who's 101of years this year.. blah blah blah... he even crapped about impotent man using ginseng to cure their impotence... ****(again) him.. the whole members of the floor was forced to listen to him while eating... he even showed the organs of the diseased!!! it was totally gruesome...
hmm.. what else?
oh ya.. do you know there's no such thing as 100-year-old ginseng?
the best quality ginsengs are 6-year-olds...
and 99.99% of the ginseng in market are grown... the 0.01% can be found in the wild..
and also those which are found in the wild are usually planted in pots for few months then transfered somewhere in to the wild.. after letting it be for certain years, the planters will come and hunt for them... selling them for super high price...
also for the environmentalist... ginseng HAS to be planted on NEW grounds... meaning, cutting down of forest.
*Tips for those who wanna buy ginseng and not get scamed... haha
hmm.. and ginseng MUST NEVER be boiled too long... what a waste of time..
*sigh* again...
but the end was pwetty fun... there was this lucky draw...
there was this super big price worth RM200... funny how i got it.. and i didn't even know what it was... ...in a bottle, powder, bitter-looking... YUCK!

so.. i guess that's all...
SAVE THE FOREST! YAY (where did have i heard it)
