"I'm Lovin' It!"

This is Nazrol. He’s my dear friend cum my karaoke buddy cum my former Boss. That’s right people! I used to work for him. I was his crew back in the days where I was scrapping grease at the back of oil filter. (Sob! Don’t ask!)



He’s also Hasmiron’s second cousin and interestingly we share the same passion – KARAOKE! Yes, though he probably "familiars" with a few more musical notes than I do, but I am still the champ in the ‘performance’ department (still unbeatable!). I guess that’s why we just clicked right away. We have such a deep admiration for each other.

So this is where he works - Equine Park Store. He’s been managing this store for quite while now - I just don’t have any freaking idea how long. For those of you who are not familiar with this area – tough luck guys, neither do I! Just Google Earth it, will ya! (But I swear it’s somewhere between Sri Kembangan dan Putrajaya



A couple of weeks ago, Nazrol called me asking for my favor and my first reaction was “u-oh!” - forgivable since he hasn’t called me for anything else except for karaoke. But as I found out later, his store was competing for Drive Through Challenge and he needed me to help him out to win the RM10,000 for the first prize.

“So what exactly do I do?”

“Use our Drive-Thru’, pay using the coupon I’ll be given to you and EAT!”

“ Just like that?”

“ Yes, and O, repeat the order until you collapsed out of dehydration and overeating“

“Cool, bring it on!”

“Bring as many friends as you can”



So I dutifully agreed - out of friendship and free lunch. And at the prospect of collapsing alone, I invited a few other friends to come over and support this event for a ‘good cause’. Guess how many came?


This hungry-looking dude is Faizal. He’s probably my most loyal and dependable friend ever!


Reena and her ‘soldiers’ looking very, very hungry



Eja and um um um her sister , or was it her cousin?


Flag off. The is the moment that we have been waiting for…


Ermmm..wearing a red wig at 12 in the afternoon is not my idea of fun afternoon. errgghh..


Things I’d do for free lunch and soft toys…arghhh…traffic jam…obviously I am not the only sucker here.



Awww...don't you think they are adorable? Of coure they are, they are free and they are MINE!


I am a sucker for free things....so back off!!


If you think this is Ground Zero, you should see my bed…NOT!


Thanks Nazrol for the free lunch and soft toys. I had a helluva time. If there was anything at all I get from this Saturday-McD-Merry-Go-Round is that I have a lot of respect for you now. Participating in this nationwide-big-deal Drive-Thru’ contest on the top of running a big, 24 hours store like that is by no mean an easy feat. Not everyone could pull it off.

Even though we lost (yes, we lost!)You should be proud of your store and the supports you get. Sometime there’s more to winning that RM10,000 prize (I really have to come back to you on that ‘what’s it?’)

And you know what, I’ll come again sometimes and next time I am paying.

I just need time to shake those 5 McChickens and 3 McFlurrys off my guts first.
