Valentine's Day- The meaning in my heart

2012-02-09T22:22:00.005+08:00

Valentine's day is coming, a lot of people start talking about Valentine- For those who have couple, they will discuss about where to celebrate/ what to buy for him/her/ what to do on that day, etc. And for those who are single, they wish to have someone special to celebrate on Valentine's day, a someone special that could give him/ her a warm feeling on the day, maybe after the lovely day they could turn to be couple.

At the other side, there are certain group of people who are not celebrating Valentine, because they think Valentine's day is nothing special to celebrate, Valentine's day is a waste of time & money, Velentine's day sucks! Valentine's day is not my culture. Who cares about the culture? We just want to celebrate the LOVELY day ~
Some people even think that -> " we are in love everyday, everyday is our Valentine's day"..Oops......it's so boring! Why? Can I know how many times u celebrate an occasion in a year? Probably 3-4 times a year, why is so difficult to spend a lil time with your love one or surprise your love one on these special occasions? Human being, people tend to live in an ordinary life, sometimes we could make a change, to light up the dull life with surprises~ to gain back the sparks in the relationship by adding spice!

2 days ago, I chit-chat with my colleagues during lunch time, I have a very good colleague who has been married for 15 years this year, he was so proud to tell us about how good is his wife, a down to earth type of woman. And surpringly he never bought her a gift after they got married, oh my~ I can't accept this~ Because he told us that his wife never requested all these things in this 15 years. I have to admit that sometimes guys are a lil dumb in dealing with girly things, they never thought about women love surprises, she never requested but it doesn't mean she doesn't like surprises. We suggested him to make a change this year during their anniversary, we asked him to buy a gift to his wife, but he seemed reluctant to give a try. :-/

Guys and girls are the same- we both love surprises!! This is called human being~ Always remember to give and take. So, let's cherish and celebrate with your love one on this coming Valentine's day! Make a change & make a move! It's nothing wrong to show the love and your appreciation to your love one on this special day. For those who have a love one, think about how grateful that you have a partner to celebrate this lovely special day, better than those who are single and wishing that the someone special to appear in their life.

Bukit Genting Hill @ Penang

2012-01-31T20:58:00.000+08:00

25 & 26 Jan'12 CNY @ Penang

http://www.bukitgentinghill.com/

Spent 2 days in Penang during CNY holiday, went to Batu Ferringhi and relax by the beach, I like the feeling of freedom without any problematic job issues in mind, or any stressful things that pop out on my mind.

After spent some times at Batu Ferringhi, we headed to Bukit Genting- (first time I heard about this place) Lucky that my iphone google map was working, we managed to find the place after 35 mins drive (the place is not easy to find). I was impressed by Bukit Genting, the view was breathtaking~!

Bow @ Bt Ferringhi~

200 x Bow

The view was AMAZING & wonderful~ I felt very cold when I arrived the restaurant. The weather was very nice

How beautiful was sunset view from Bukit Genting? Words can't explain it, you gotta see it by your own eyes

I loved the colors........pinky + sky blue , plus the sea....... perfect

For more info of Bukit Genting, kindly log on to their official website

http://www.bukitgentinghill.com/

We had our sunset dinner over Bukit Genting, looking at the beatiful view while dining, I love life! The restaurant serves Thai foods, but we don't really eat spicy foods so we ordered some non-spicy foods.

Thai Style Fried Egg

Veggie + Egg Soup

Mixed Vegetables New

A mixture of 10 types of vegetables which includes carrot, brocolli, cauliflower, kailan, mushrooms and such fried in oyster sauce and aromatic leaves.

Sorry to say that this dish was terrible, we had a few cauliflowers and we left it there.

Popiah- This was the best among all the dishes! =D

Pandan Chicken

Plad Rad Prik

Deep fried till it is so crispy it cracks, it is coupled with a three flavoured sauce. A perfect balance of sweet, sour and spicy, this is the dish to stimulate your taste buds.

This fish was okay as it's deep fried fish, we can't taste if the fish was fresh or not fresh.

Even though we're not satisfied with the foods, but no regret for going to this place, because the view was valuable enough~!!

GONG XI FA CAI & HAPPY DRAGON YEAR~

www.leonardos.my/

Indulged myself with good foods on the first day of 2012~ Thean and I went to my favourite restaurant Leonardo's to have a new year dinner. As I always mention how nice is Leonardo's and how tasty was the chocolate fondant. I let the boy to choose the dishes this time and we ordered dishes that I've never tried before except the dessert. =D

The Menu

Mineral Water (Sometimes I prefer sparkling)

We started with Scallop Lychee Salad, delicious!!! The combination of Lychee + Scallop was awesome

Mamma Mia Pizza

(jamon serrano, mozzarella, rocket)

Yummy!!!!!!

German Pork Schnitzel

with apple sauce, chips and salad

yum~yum~ very big portion and heavy~

The Main Course of the night~

Chocolate Volcano

I worried the taste of this dessert changed or they changed their chef, and when I had a mouthful of the cake..the chocolate flavor made me happy...This is the best place for chocolate fondant !!!

Xmas Eve & New Year's Eve 2011

2012-01-22T14:57:00.001+08:00

24/Dec/11 @ The Hill Damansara Heights

Xmas Eve

December is my favourite month! I love Christmas season~~ Very sad that I didn't have any special plan on the last 2 Christmas eves, I wish I could do something special or go somewhere to celebrate Christmas this year. I went to the same place to celebrate Christmas, it turned to disappoinment. We didn't expect The Hill became so quiet and boring, compare to Christmas eve on 2010. They didn't have proper countdown for Christmas, and the crowd was not as happening as last time, pfft!!!Well, we not gonna go back to The Hill on Christmas eve this year.

I decided to wear red dress on Christmas eve, it suits this festive!!~ Yea I was part time Santa Rina

Gosh We did the same thing again after one year, I don't wanna repeat it again this year!! *cross finger* The lucky this was we had new friends this time ^^

Santa Rina & Reindeer

Even though the place was not that happening as we expected, we still enjoyed this small gathering

We headed to WIP for second round, the place was much more better than The Hill, they had Xmas decoration and a special theme for the night.~

31/Dec/11
New Year Eve @ Genting Highland

We couldn't think of where to go on New Year Eve, after we considered and we decided to go to Genting Highland! Two main reasons attracted us to go there- the weather and the fireworks! Well, we depart at 5pm and we arrived in Bukit Tinggi around 6pm, luckily the traffic was kinda smooth. We had a very nice dinner at Bukit Tinggi chinese restaurant, the foods were delicious and the price was very reasonable! Highly recommend to people!

I haven't been to Genting since my company annual dinner one and a half year ago, not much changes over there, kinda disappointed with the Christmas decorations at Genting, we thought the decoration must be very nice but it's very less decor for Christmas this time. As usual we walking around Genting and waiting for New Year Countdown, this time the countdown venue at Genting Outdoor Theme Park, the crowded was really good~ Plus the weather was chilling! When the clock strike 12am- 3~2~1 HAPPY NEW YEAR! everybody was very happy to welcome 2012! Forget the unhappy past and look forward to a better year!
However, the disapponted thing happened on that night, there was no fireworks due to the bad weather, they postpone the fireworks to 1230am but ended up they decided to make it on the next day, BOO HOO!!

Nizam x Elvin x Bow

Bow with bear~ Bow likes stuffed animal~ Even that, I can't have more stuffed animal anymore as I have enough of stuffed animals!!

People play games to win all these bears home.....lolx! It's huge!

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!!

Wedding Dinners during Xmas week

2012-01-15T22:04:00.003+08:00

23/Dec/11 - Friday
Wedding Dinner of Micheal's daughter @ Grand Imperial Klang

It's the month of happiness! A lot of people got married during Xmas week, 2 of my schoolmate got married on Xmas day, what a memorable Xmas for them! I heard there are lot of friends getting married this year! Gosh!!! Because we are at the suitable age for marry~ >.<

First time to attend wedding dinner with my co-workers, I went off from office earlier with Sharon, changed and got ready at her house and we headed to Grand Imperial Klang, the environment of this restaurant could compete with Imbi Palace, quite a nice place for wedding dinner if you don't wanna book the hotel ballroom.
Foods were above average, I like the chicken soup compare to shark fin soup- SAY NO TO SHARK FIN!
All of us had good fun at the dinner, it's like a small gathering for us~~ We went to RP for second round drinking, I was so tired and sleepy during the 2nd as it was Friday, a longgg day for me!
Mr. Micheal used to be our superior, every of us respected him as our senior, he is very generous and never stingy to share his knowlegde to us, and very helful when we were facing some difficulties and problems at work. I am glad that I have a few of kind colleagues who care for me~ Im lucky ^^

Patrick & Selina's Wedding Dinner @ Tai Thong Imperial City Restaurant

2 days in a row during the weeked!!! What a happiness weekend!~ The love story of Patrick & Selina was amazing, they got engaged after they dated for 3 months, Patrick proposed to her at KL Tower revolving restaurant, ( haha~I seem like a gossip girl here to spread their love story) and after one year++ they did the Chinese wedding ceremony.

This proven that "time" is not the main issue to determine a relationship, it depends on destiny and fate~ I always believe in destiny and fate, if they belong to each other, no matter how far they apart, they will finally meet each other. Why did some couple dating for 8 years but broke up in the end? Because their fate has ended. ...

As I mentioned earlier, I have 2 shoolmates got married on Xmas day hence some of the schoolmates went to Tracy's wedding dinner, and here we only had 1 table of classmates. Something that made us didn't enjoy the dinner as usual, WHY? Because there was 2 different group of people at the same restaurant, even though it was separate by a divider, but we could hear the noise that came from their side, we couldn't enjoy chit chatting with friends due to very noisy - Karaoke session & there was a lady used the microphone talking non-stop on the stage~

Anyway, Congratulation to Patrick & Selina!! May they enjoy their marriage life, happily ever after!

Bow x Elvin

He got really drunk on that night, some funny things happened after he got drunk..heee heee

All of us~

Ritz Carlton
Pre-Christmas Celebration with C

When you google "afternoon tea in KL", Ritz Carlton's afternoon tea would show at the first page at the search results, it's quite a popular place for hi tea. I enjoy afternoon tea (hi tea) more than dinner, because I can indulge myself in all the delicious pastries, as you know I really like pastries and dessert, they are my favourite foods.
We watched a movie - "New Year's Eve" at Pavilion, the mall fulled of people due to the festive season, many people attracted by all those huge bears that exibited outside the mall~they were from all around the world.

German Bear

We walked from Pavilion to Ritz Carlton,~ after 15 mins, we arrived the place.

The environment was pleasant & chill~

I loved the live music over there, there was a lady playing harp

Firstly, they asked us to choose the tea that we wanted, there were 40+ different flavor of tea, for Hi-tea and tea lover, you would love it~~

One set of afternoon tea is good enough for 2 person sharing.

yummy, yummy~ I love sandwich~!

Nothing to complaint about all the foods beside from we found a hair on top of butter scone. Foods were delicious but the service need to be improved! I wanna go back again with my mum ^^

The Menu

Home cured Atlantic salmon and cream cheese on herb roll

Cucumber fingers
Ham and cheese with nutted bread
Chicken and mushroom pie
Quiche Lorraine
Plain butter scone
Walnut raisin scone

Dancing Fish @ BSC

2011 had finally drawn to an end, I hope all the bad things that happened in 2011 won't happen again in 2012, what is my New Year's Resolution? I have a few practical resolution in my mind, alright I hope I'm gonna achieve it in this year!!
This is the first post in 2012!! What am I doing lately? Im busy on 'chasing' drama series GLEE! I'm totally into it~
We went to Dancing Fish , an Malay- Indo Cusine that C never tried before, he kept telling me how O&M like this restaurant and how good was the food. I wouldn't mind to try it out with him since I never tried this restaurant before~

The entrance of this restaurant, 3 big round shape lamps welcome all the customers

We didn't like this appetizer (its a snack - taste bitter)

We started with Satay~ It taste good!! ^^

Cha Kangkung (Bandung Style)

This is the main course! DANCING FISH - (Nila Goreng)

with sambal terasi & kicap

C loved it~

Sup Buntut

Oxtail slow boiled till juicy and tender. Flavourful, mildly spicy. A soup with kick~

C dislike this soup, but I like it...teehhe~~

Desser time~ This was similar to Pisang Goreng + Brown Sugar with Ice Cream Nothing special about this dessert tho~

They gave two options of rice for us to choose- yellow rice & white rice, we choose mixture~ It's a good try as I always eat western foods during weekend, it was a good choice we made to try out Asian Foods sometimes.~ ^^ I find the concept of this restaurant is similar to Madam Kwan? maybe I was wrong.~ ~

Merry X'mas~~!!

2011-12-27T00:14:00.000+08:00

Ho Ho Ho!! Merry X'mas!!

How did u celebrate your Xmas? I have a wish! I wanna get away from KL next year, I need to celebrate at somewhere else beside KL~ Will blog about Xmas soon! Time for Bed! xoxo!

Shook ! Starhill Galery

2011-12-26T23:39:00.001+08:00

Shook

16-Dec-2011

Its been quite some time since I last went to Starhill gallery, the Jazz lounge used to be one of my favourite chill-out place few years ago, it's a shame that they closed the Jazz Lounge~ I miss hanging out at a lounge that with live Jazz music. I was invited by a friend to Shook, he thought to change to another restaurant after I told him that I celebrated my valentine 2 years ago with my ex-bf, haha! and guess what? That Valentine's dinner was the most expensive dinner that I ever had! gosh~ "Dont look back, look forward"!

When we walking to Shook, we saw there was live music as well, Romantic place~~ I wish to go back to have a couple of drinks~ I didnt have more drinks because I had to go back to office the next day for budget meeting! I hate last week because I worked 7 days!

We had champagne *Wink*

The menu is so big! They serve Italian, Japanese & Chinese cuisine =D

As usual, we started with bread with dipping olive oil + Vinegar. I was so hungry as I just finish my yoga class.

The waiter recommended us this Appetizer from Chinese Menu - Snow White Dancing Prawn

Stir Fried Prawns with Hot Mayonnaise Sprinkled with Honey-glazed Walnuts~ YES! It is a MUST TRY! Soooo yummy!!

I would like to say this plate of mixture sashimi was AWESOME! All the sashimi were so Fresh!!

Look at this! the sashimi cover by an ice made bowl~ So nice~ ^^

Alla Carbonara

Pasta in Creamy Sauce with Mushroom and Beef Bacon

Foods were AWESOME!! Environment was good! Everything nearly perfect! I wanna go back again!

But it was quite pricey~! Likey ~

Expectation leads to Disappointment

2011-12-19T21:45:00.003+08:00

Live like a zombie or live life?
When I feel moody or down, I think of my Bikram Yoga class, it feels much better after I attend the class, I would have a peace of mind. Every unhappy things throw behind my head~ Apparently it was just a temporary relief! What I need is.....Happiness

Back to the title, I am learning not to put anything in high expectation, yes I have to admit that I improve on this ever since something unhappy happened few years ago, I try not to put "high hope" on something, otherwise I would feel 'sucks' & disappointed.

Friends always tell me that "don't be so high expectation on something or someone, don't be so fussy & choosy", and yes! Im Rainbow and Im difficult !! Im trying to change my mind, Im trying to low down my expectation.

Again, Christmas is around the corner!! What do u want for X'mas?!
I supposed to buy Tiffany & Co mini heart lock necklace but when I saw the necklace, the pendant looks really "mini" size, ended up I gave up to buy it. Alright, looking for new stuff that I wanna grab! But Im not gonna give up Tiffany & Co, tee hee.

What to do what you think alot, alot of unpredictable stuffs, lots of stuffs in your imagination but maybe it's not real? try and try to relax my mind now, let it goes and let it be..........

Far East Movement Concert & Update~

2011-12-15T20:21:00.000+08:00

3-Dec-2011 @ KL LIVE

Hello Peeps!

It's been quite some times since I last updated my blog! I've been very busy for the last few weeks, plus my nieces were staying at my room, I didn't sleep at my room for around 20 days :-/

Wow! Christmas & New Year is around the corner, have u prepared already? I'm still thinking where to go during Christmas & New year, I think I will go out with my bunch of friends- Party! Oh no! I prefer to go oversea and celebrate this festive seasons........Just so u know that Dec is my fav. month, I love Christmas~ I Love the decoration & the atmosphere =) Am planning to go to the mall to do Christmas shopping & take some photos of the decoration. I hope I could celebrate Christmas & New Year with my love one next year as they are my favourite festive season~

Back to the title, Sa & I went to Far East Movement's concert 2 weeks ago, it was the ~~worst~~ concert that I ever attended! OMG~The concert supposed to start at 8pm, but the gate only opened at 10pm, by the time they showed up, it was 11pm. OMG! what kind of arrangement & concert was this? Can u imagine if you paid for the ticket to this concert? The delay spoiled our night~ Because we been waiting and waiting~

Lucky thing was Sa won these 2 tickets but not paid for the tickets, otherwise we would VERY pissed.

Tiger Print x Leopard Print~ xD

AHHH! There was one hard-core smoker (guy) standing right in front of us, I couldn't take it...it's very smoky!!

Beside Far East Movement, I went to Thirst- Tiesto Rave Party @ Sepang Circuit, it was nice! It's been some times since I last attended rave, almost 8 years! :-S

I miss those days, those crazy days that we used to have- my college life~ I miss them a lot~ We always went to Ladies night @ Rush on Thursday night, we love to go to Re-charged Rave party @ Genting, PD & A Farmosa. And now, all of them became some happy memories in my heart.

Brunch @ Bulldog English Pub & Restaurant

http://bulldog.com.my/

When Thean told me that we gonna have our brunch in Sri Hartamas, Jarrod & Rawlin crossed my mind, I thought he would bring me to J&R as their brunch is very famous. To be honest, I am very lucky & grateful that I could always try out new restaurants, try out new foods at different places. When Thean told me about Bulldog, I wondered why they named their restaurant as Bulldog, it's kinda funny name....tee heee...
When I reached the restaurant, I just knew that it's a pub + restaurant, it seemed like I having brunch at a pub, funny though!

There was one customer having his beer while reading newspaper. =P

No beer for me in the afternoon, unless Im in vacation~

The interior

BLT – I ordered this, quite good~ Love Bacon ^^

Bacon, Lettuce & Tomato
Cheddar Cheese & Pickle

Toad in the Hole-

This is their signature dish!~ I like the yorkshire pudding, it taste so good! I didn't like the sausages, too much~!

Large Yorkshire Pudding and pork sausages

baked together until crisp. Served with fresh

vegetables, creamy mashed potato and gravy.

Foods & the environment were above average, I would like to try out J&R beakfast/brunch since so many people talking about that.

If you wish to have traditional ENGLISH breakfast, you can pay a visit to Bulldog @ Sri Hartamas~ ^^

♥ Update - Hello December!

2011-12-04T13:07:00.002+08:00

26th & 28th Nov 2011

I had a great weekend~ a lot of things happened during this long weekend- happy, crazy, funny, excited, sweet, nervous..all came together. I enjoying the moment that pampered by others, by those who cares for me. I like it when there is someone who always by my side to support me, share life with me, to do things together with me, traveling with me. *Observing*

Went to this place again with a different friend on last Saturday, this was his first visitation to this place. kinda relax day but the rain caused the bad traffic & inconveniece for us to walk around. Also, we went to Taming Sari tower to see the beautiful nightview, however the night view is not as beautiful as we expected. Lol. I think this would be the first and the last time~

Went out for dinner & drinks with Brian- big guy! very funny & friendly guy

Gosh I hate it when I looked so ~~RED~~!

Enjoy Life & Live Life to the Fullest

Oh yea, It's December! We didn't realize how time flies because we always looking forward to what future bring, sometimes I feel nervous and anxious that the time goes by too fast, yet another year is coming! Not joking but I really have to plan for my future~ I started back my yoga class, I tell myself that I have to do exercise & maintain my body shape, the most important thing is because of I want to have a good health! Hope that I won't give up on Yoga~!

Last but not least- it was the highlight of the week that I had a lovely dinner at a beautiful place ♥

my dream place..as I always hope that I could stay at a studio...the night view is breath-taking~ Better than what we saw on top of the Taming Sari Tower. lolx

Sunday Dinner @ Tatto

2011-11-27T13:17:00.001+08:00

20-Nov-11
Tatto, Jalan Damai - (ITALIAN CUISINE)
http://www.tatto.com.my/

Happy Sunday! I had a enrich day on last Sunday, went to photo shooting in the morning and after that I went out to have dinner with Nemo. We always have good times each time we hang out. We supposed to go La Risata but after Nemo knew that I've been there before, he refused to go there and asked me to check "Time Out Top 40 restaurants", and we decided to go Tatto. To be honest, it's not easy to find the location of Tatto because it locates inside the household area, it's hidden~! Two of us always excited to try out new restaurant, especially Nemo~ teehee!

The Interior

I forgot to take the external of Tatoo, very obvious it was a bungalo before they turned to Tatto.

The interior & decor

We had champagne on that night! NICEEEEEE

Appetizer - Awesome!!!!

Antipasti platter of eggplant parmigiana, buffalo mozzarella, seared scallops, calamari fritti and beef carpaccio

Mushroom Risotto with parmesan and truffle oil - Tasty!

Heeeeeeeee! My fav cod fish!!!

Pan roast black cod with brussels sprout, capsicum and served with orange liquor sauce

For Dolci, Nemo choose Baked mango and strawberry in philo pastry with cream

The display of this dolci looked good! The taste of this dolci was good, it would be better if the mango was sweet instead of sour.

Just so you know, Tatto going to move to another place (I heard inside the shopping mall) after new year, whoever that wanna go to try out this restaurant, hurry up! (The reason of moving is simply because of they received complaints from neighbours as that area is household area)
I enjoyed the dinner so much ,with a good companion and delicious foods!! ^^

A Lovely Sunday @ KL Bird Park

2011-11-22T20:10:00.000+08:00

20-Nov-11, Sunday

Lumix Workshop @ KL Bird Park

I woke up at 730am on last Sunday, frankly I don't like to wake up so early on weekend *who likes it?*
Since we decided to join Lumix workshop and payment has made, we were quite excited about the workshop as this was the first time we joined a photography workshop ^^

Pickup Sa on 840am and we headed to KL Bird Park that located near to Lake Garden, what a shame that I never been to either KL Bird Park or Lake Garden, as a KL girl but never been to this place ..pfft~

Lately I find that I like outdoor activities, it's more meaningful & healthy, of course I still enjoying night life!

I want a balance life - night life + exercise + outdoor activities .

When we arrived at bird park, we worried that not many people were joining the workshop, after we registered at the counter and we relief when we saw a bunch of people were sitting there ^^

The theory class conducted by Aaron, heard that he is a professional photographer (full time), he shared his experieces and knowledge with us, and there was Q & A session for us, it is a very informative & lively session for us to ask what we want to know about GF camera & shooting skill. Worst part of the workshop was they didn't use mic to talk, we barely can heard what the conductor spoke.

After lunch, we were given 3 hours for free & easy photo shooting, we gotta submit 3 BEST photos that we shot on that day, it divided to 3 categories, which are Macro, Potrait & Wildlife. BEST thing was we got a chance to borrow the lenses from Lumix to try & experience the differences of the lens, no doubt I choose my favourite LEICA 25MM, f1.4 ~ It's AWESOME lens to for potrait shoot~ !!!! YEA!

It ain't easy to capture birds though as the birds fly away when we close to them...

All the photos taken by Lumix GF3, LEICA DG SUMMILUX 25mm F1.4 ASPH.

Peacock! I like the natural color of all these birds, they are so beautiful~

I afraid of this bird, cuz this bird walking toward me and eventually I runaway..lolz!

Peacock on display

WILDLIFE

I submitted this to Lumix, I still remember they commented that I should capture more pond area in the photo

Nice White Bird.. it's not easy to capture birds tho as they fly away when we near them

MACRO

I submitted this to Lumix

Bow

My fav model of the day, this lil cutie from Spain..Ahh~ Feel like wanna hug him ~ too cute~!!!!!!!!!!!!

POTRAIT

I submitted this to them~ (Look at the background of this photo, very nice! Blur enough)

The pretty model, she is very tall & slim ~ Sweet!!

Hope u like all these photos that I took =)

I would probably join the next workshop, cause it's fun!!!

A song that made me cry...

2011-11-15T22:19:00.003+08:00

I recommend this song to EVERYONE who read this post! Must listen to this song!

I always listen this song when Violet's phone ringing, Shazlin asked me: Who sang this song huh? I replied: Must be Korean singer lah~! Cause his voice and his pronunciation sound like Asian singer singing an english song. I went to ask Violet who is the singer and what is the title of this song and I found out this song sang by a former american idol contestant during the tenth season~ unfortunately he only made it to the top 40 out of 327 contestants~
" What are words" is a tribute to his fiance who suffered a brain injury as the result of a car accident and is about promises, commitment and keeping your word. ~Sad but true, its an EPIC love story~~

Just now, this song crossed my mind, I decided to download it and when I read the lyric of this song, I teared and I felt pain in heart, it's a very very TOUCHING song that made a lot of people tear.....WORTH to listen! ~

Beside my parents, who will love me like how my parents love me? Who can keep their words & promises after some bad incident happens? Chris Medina, you are one of the BEST men in this world!

Anywhere you are, I am near 　　
Anywhere you go, I'll be there 　　
Anytime you whisper my name, you'll see 　　
How every single promise I keep 　　
Cause what kind of guy would I be 　　
If I was to leave when you need me most 　　
What are words If you really don't mean them 　　
When you say them What are words 　　
If they're only for good times Then they don't 　　
When it's love Yeah, you say them out-loud those words 　　
They never go away 　　
They live on, even when we're gone 　　
And I know an angel was sent 　　
Just for me and I know I'm meant 　　
To be where I am and I'm gonna be 　　
Standing right beside her tonight 　　
And I'm gonna be by your side

Hennessy Artistry 2011 @ MIECC The Mines

I had a good weekend! I would say so far I enjoyed most of my weekend in Nov'11 ^^ but during weekday, I was like a zombie. *Sigh*

Got the invitation by SA, yes! Sa again! Glad to have this friend who always particpate in contests, and because of her luck, I got to attend this MASSIVE event !! Initally I didn't expect anything and I didn't think of anything about this event, because when we looked at the performers list, we thought it might be a boring event, just like Arthur's concert :-/

Sa picked me up at 815pm as the event started at 9pm, when we were on our way to The Mines, we were discussing about what's the backup plan if the event was boring, blah blah blah. When we reached the car park, we saw some crowded over there and we walked to ground floor for registration. When we reached the entrance of the event, I was like OMFG!!! I saw a red carpet, I saw a lot of photographers/ videographers, I saw a ton of beautiful models/ ladies with their cocktail dresses & heels~ Most of them were well dressed!! It was just like a celebrities night!
We didn't prepare well on that night, if we knew that the event was such classy, we would have gone to hair saloon to set our hair and dress nicer.

The invitation card- looked classy!

We gotta passed by a few Hennessy Artistry backgrounds & finally we reached the Art of Mixing Zone, we started to get our free drinks here~ Ton of people!

The Organizer set an ID tag registration counter and Hennessy Interactive Photowall for guests to participate the ID tag contest! We registered ours at the counter by login our FB account and then they gave us an ID tag (the ID tag looks like a watches), after we wore the ID tag on our hand, we Q up for taking the photo and scan our ID tag, the photo would automatically upload to our FB, VERY NICE ISN"T IT? Besides, some beautiful Hennessy ambassadors were holding a iPad and a scanner walking around (each ambassador was together with a photographer), we were asked if we wanna take photo with the ambassador, we no doubt to say YES, of course!

here we go! (automatically uploaded to my FB, how nice!)

The Art of Mixing Zone~ Mix your Hennessy with Berry/ Ginger/ Soda/ Apple

I drank HennessyBerry the whole night xD

Can't believe my Digi Cam took such nice photo (without flash)

Hennessy Apple/ Hennessy Berry/ Hennesy Ginger/ Hennessy Soda

I would have drank until I drunk if I was feeling well on that night (blame on my stomach >.<)

Gosh I looked a bit chubby ~~ >.

Next to the Art of Mixing Zone, there was the real PARTY PLACE! They converted the convention centre to a huge disco! this was a REAL PARTY! !! Free Flow, Nice Music, Nice Atmosphere, Everything closed to perfect!

Without flash, this photo looks good too~

Although sometimes my digi cam has some problems, sometimes the digi cam couldn't differentiate micro focus or macro focus and it makes some of my photos look blur, but I still satisfied with most of the photos~

Mr. Romeo & Juliet Bow

nice to meet you~

OMG! CAN'T WAIT FOR HENNESSY ARTISTRY 2012! WILL PREPARE FOR IT NEXT YEAR!~ HEHE~!

Someone Like You

2011-11-12T13:13:00.001+08:00

Song that I fancy currently ♥~ Somone like you by Adele, the piano rhythm & her voice attracted me! Repeating this song non-stop in my playlist. Such a sad yet beautiful song! Love the lyric too! ♥

I heard, that your settled down.
That you, found a girl and your married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things, I didn't give to you.

Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold it back or hide from the light.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited.
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face & that you'd be reminded,
That for me, it isn't over.

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best, for you too.
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, yeah.

You'd know, how the time flies.
Only yesterday, was the time of our lives.
We were born and raised in a summer haze.
Bound by the surprise of our glory days.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face & that you'd be reminded,
That for me, it isn't over.

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you say:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead", yay.

Nothing compares, no worries or cares.
Regret's and mistakes they're memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.
I wish nothing but the best for you.
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you said:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
Nevermind, I'll find someone like you.

I wish nothing but the best for you too.
Don't forget me, I beg, I remembered you say:-
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, yay yeh yeah

♥ Wee Luan + Leong Wedding Dinner

2011-11-09T19:02:00.001+08:00

5-Oct-11
Imbi Palace @ Jalan Imbi, KL

Wedding dinner is always full of romantic atmosphere accompany with love songs, besides, it was a small gathering for all of us, gathered some old friends/ schoolmates. When the screen showing the video on what happened in the morning games session, I felt like I wanna run out of the restaurant as the video might show our ugly faces/ behaviour during the groom & "heng dai" pick up the bride, fortunately my face didnt show up in the video! xD

Most of us satisfied with the foods! Delicious! and yeah, I strongly agree that not to eat sharp fin soup anymore~ Killing the shark is really cruel!!!

Menu of the night

Crazy Gang

VICTORY #34!! We were the CHAMPION on that night!!!

I like to see the wedding photo slideshows- Sweet~

Most of my ex-classmates are attached and some of them are preparing for their wedding, I know that a lot of friends will be getting married on next year, all of them talk about which studio to take wedding photos, which restaurant to book..etc~ GOSH!!!! I feel abit tension about that~ Cause I feel that I'm still hanging here.

YEAHHHHH~ "Yam Seng"!!

A lot of friends drunk on that night~ Very very funny and crazy night! We had fun!

Wish the two love-birds have a sweet & happy marriage life~ Eternity Love~

♥ Weeluan + Leong Wedding Day

2011-11-08T23:36:00.000+08:00

5-Nov-11 Saturday

A very happy Saturday! Because my ex-classmate got married! After 7 years they in a relationship and finally they tie the knot!! I witness how they started the relationship untill now they got married...again, time flies! I still remember we used to work at supermarket on weekend during college time, and she got to know Leong at supermarket, after that they started dating. ^^

7 of us be her "Ji Mui' (bridesmaid) on her wedding day, they choose to wear casual instead of dress as those "Heng Dai" (best men) wear sporty style, we gotta match with them. I find it's a very good idea to wear sporty style, it's something new and casual! ^^ Let's break the stereotype~

The beautiful Bride~~ Bride is always the most beautiful on her wedding day

As usual we played some games with all the "Heng Dai" and we had some conflict with one of the "Heng dai", he was not very co-operate and very naughty, I was very angry with him and we used cane to cane him. I guess our action scared the guys away.

Wedding bear bracelet, all of us wearing it.. very cute isn't it~ ^^

Artificial bouquet of rose, bride's brother bought it from HKG...nice!!

unfortunately the bride didn't throw the bouquet after the tea ceremony, otherwise I would go to grab it..tee hee!!

Marriage is the golden ring in a chain whose

beginning is a glance and whose ending is Eternity.

~ Kahlil Gibran ~

This lil kid was the highlight of the day, he is sooooo adorable and cute!!

I like him~ ♥♥♥♥

29-Oct-11 Saturday

Zouk Club KL

YAY! Finally I've cleared all my overdue posts....This would be the latest post that happened few days ago, I wanna keep my blog up-to-date, WHY? because I probably would forget the detail that happen in the event/ outing, it would be better to write down how I feel instantly instead of I post it after 1-2 weeks later~

Received an usual mail by Zouk Club, I saw the invitation card when I opened the envelope, the design of these invitation card was considerate and nice~ I like the design~ The "coffin shape" card was the menu of the night, skeleton key was the "lucky draw" key which we need to write our name & phone number and put inside a big box for lucky draw, the "skull bone shape" card was the most important one, 2 people could enter to Zouk with this card.

I told HY that I didn't wanna wear any costume, but I would get myself some accessories. When the party got closer, there were a few friends asked me where I going for Halloween Party and so on, when I heard that few of them have rent & well prepared for Halloween costume, I was a bit nervous about that since I didn't prepare anything for the party. Kumiko and I went to Taipan Ballon Buzz to grab some accessories, no matter how we gotta wear something that related to Halloween. at the end we got ourselves leopard thingy~

See! Leopard Lady~ I got a leopard tail~

On that night we saw loads of people dressed in costumes, TON and TON of people attended the party @ Zouk~ it was very crowded!! The theme of the night was TOMB~they made a few fake tomb over there..They create a thriller environment.

Angel x Leopard x Devil Lady

Sa & Keddy didnt wear any costume or accessories

Leopard Lady x Angel~

My dear wore a pilot uniform, she was really beautiful on that night~ The costume suits her much~~

HURRAY~ Met policewoman Buaya Jess~ She looked wild!

The TOMB area~~

I didn't enjoy much on that night~ I didn't know why~

Maybe because of too pack, or maybe because of need to wait for this n that to enter or whatsoever~ or Maybe I bored of clubbing? or maybe we didn't have a table to put our drinks? or maybe didn't have enough alcohol? haha ~

I hope I can fully dress on next year or someday in Hallowen, at least try once in my life time. ~~

OctoberFest @ GAB

OctoberFest @ Tavern GAB

Ever since I went to GAB Tavern last year (previous GAB post, click here), I told my friends that I fancy the fresh draught beer that I could get at the Tavern, plus it was free flow party~ and YES!! Sa helped us to participate to GAB OctoberFest contest and we won 12 tickets for 12 pax! Free Flow Beers & foods @ GAB~ How NICE! THANKS to Sa!!!

Sa was very excited to go to GAB as GAB is not open for public, people can only enter GAB by invitation~ I need to believe that the luck is with us!! ^^ actually the luck is with Sa, I just share her luck.

Kumiko and I headed to GAB right after work, Yvonne texted me while I was driving, she and her colleagues arrived there early and they started drinking already...how nice! Upon registered, we started with Kilkenny as our first beers...

The organizer prepared games, lucky draw, live music for that night, we enjoyed it sooo much!
Let's pictures tell the story ~~

MOTO GP @ Sepang Circuit | Life is unpredictable

2011-10-30T14:42:00.003+08:00

22-Oct-11, Saturday

http://www.motogp.com/

When Polar invited me to MotoGP, I hesitate to go as I know nuts about MotoGP, a lot of questions pop-out on my mind, " is that international one"? "is that only local riders"? I decided to go have a look since I never been to Sepang Circuit. I find it funny because as a Malaysian but never been to Sepang Circuit to watch a F1 or MotoGP, I guess I made a right decision to go have a look on last Saturday. It worth to go if you never been! I'm serious~ Never try never know even though it might be the first and the last time for me. Pfft!

You can use the same ticket for 2 days entry.

GP girl~ Pretty~~She is so tall~

A lot of motorcycle brands set a kiosk there

Even Tissot set a kiosk

Pit-boxes/Garages area....

A workshop or garage in which each team prepares for the practices, qualifying sessions and races. Amongst other things, pit-boxes contain monitoring equipment, tools, spare parts, tyres, replacement bikes and of course several busy team members. The back doors of the pit-boxes lead to the paddock where the teams’ supply trucks are stationed, while the front of the pit-boxes leads directly onto pit lane

Hot Hot Hot weather! I became TAN after that day! ? >.<

Didnt bring umbrella or hat~ too bad~

Inside the stadium~ Heard that this is a popular area... we can look onto the U-turn corner track~

This is the U-turn corner track

We can see the motorbikes passed by here closer with slower speed

When I walked into the stadium, OMG!! the sound of the motorbikes were sooooo LOUD!! I felt pain in my ears! I didnt bring or buy ears plug~ Didn't prepare well before we enter to stadium ~ Too bad! Blame Polar!!!

The speed of the motorbikes impressed me, it was my first time to watch racing in LIVE! with my own eyes~ It was sooooo FAST! U can't believe it~ exciting! It's differents with what we normally watched in TV, because in TV, the camera man follow and focus on this motorbikes so we wouldn't know what is the actual speed. What a good experienced I had!

This was one of the prettiest GP girl I seen on that day~

Why life is unpredictable?

As everyone knows there was a tragic accident happened last Sunday, one of the rider passed away in the accident. Sigh~ Life is too short! I didnt go to the actual race on Sunday, when Polar told me there was an accident and the race canceled, I thought it was just a minor accident, after one hour we knew that the rider was passed away~ I watched the video on Youtube and it frightened me, I couldn't believe it either~

Even I don't know who is the rider, but .....maybe I saw him when he was riding on Saturday~~

and he left this world on Sunday. =(

Can you imagine how his parents and his gf feel at the moment when his motorbike crashed on that day? Plus they're looking it live~ I cannot imagine how cruel was it to see the love one died in an accident, it is heart broken indeed!! >.<

How much u know about Spanish Foods? I'll be honest that I don't know much about Spanish foods, I had spanish tapas @ La bodega before but not the main course. Thean suggested to go El-Meson for dinner and I would love to try! As you know Bow likes to try out new restaurant! ^^

Speaking in new restaurant, Bow went to Cuisine Gourmet by Natalie last 2 weeks, tried out their gourment menu, wow~ Special but I just realize that I didn't really enjoy French cuisine.. =p

The worst part on that night was I carried my camera with me but without the simcard inside...*clumsy*

So Im not gonna blog about that.

"Red with black bull" Menu

El-Meson drawing on the wall

The interior decor of the restaurant- comfortable~

Yummy~ A lot of cheese & bacon inside the fridge

Wine rack corner

Im proud to introduce you this popular pig in Spain ^^

We started with this...OMG this is so tasty!

Platter of Cold Cuts for 2

Iberico, Serrano, Parma Speck, Chorizo and Salchichon with melon & olives

THIS IS TASTY TOO~ gosh~~my new favourite pasta Aglio Olio ~~ prefer Aglio Olio lately compare to Carbonara. Look at how big the scallops xD

Cappellini Aglio Olio with Prawns, scallops, artichokes

Callilera de Iberico Estofada

Iberico cheeks stewed in red wine served with potato and caramelized onion terrine and confit bacon in olive oil and spanish paprika

This is better then roast suckling pig ^^

This is the main course of the night

Cochinillo- Roast Suckling Pig~

Aww~ It's below my expectation, I find that our chinese 'Siew Yuk' Roast Pig better than this!

According to Thean, he tried the best Roast Suckling Pig before in El Cerdo, I wanna try~

Look nice but taste so-so

Dessert Time~

Challenge again! My favourite CHOCOLATE VOLCANO

Palace of the Golden Horse & Pavilion Bukit Bintang

2009????
When u see this post, you must be wondering why I blog such old post? When I clean my stuffs at my room, I saw a CD put together with other unknown CD, all these photos were taken by Sam and they were not uploaded before. I picked a few that I like the most and post on my blog and FB later. For those who had seen my album "The Night is Beautiful", you may feel similarilty of all these.
I just found that my old blog @ Live Space is no longer exist! WTH!! All my old memories gone :(

Bow x Jesse

What happened after 2 years later? Jesse got married and she is happy with her marriage life. What about Bow? Bow is still the same now beside from changed hairstyle, changed job, ended a relationship within the past two years.

I had a curly hair~ Which one looks better on me? Straight or Curly??

Time Flies........

I still remember we gotta did posing beside the road, it was Saturday night with a lot of traffic, a lot of drivers were looking at us, we felt embarrasing but we just did it.

I like this.

Yea Yea Yea - I looked happy

This is Sam~ I hope he is fine and have a healthy body~ So that he can take more photos for others ^^

I won't forget what happened on that night, it was a memorable night ever~ Met some new friends during photo shooting, and met my ex-Bf after photo shooting...they are all my good memories~

Suddenly this song pop-out on my mind , it's sad but true~

Don't look back, got a new direction
I loved you once, needed protection
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo

Octoberfest- A Night Out with MAW

2011-10-23T13:34:00.004+08:00

9-Oct-11

Finnegan's Irish Pub @ Changkat Bukit Bintang & Gypsy Bar @ Changkat Bukit Bintang

http://www.finneganspubs.com/finneganspubs/index.aspx

I haven't seen MAW for almost 2 months ++, we decided to catch up for some drinks, we were bar-hopping on that night, firstly we went to Finnegan, MAW likes Irish pub as he is Irish! >.<

Just so you know now is Octoberfest hence everywhere is having promotion for beers, we orders a 1litre Tiger, snack for bite while chit chat, long island ice tea at Finnegan.

1 litre Tiger~ HUGE!!

You can take the beer glass home after u finish it..~

All about Ireland

Pork Snackers

A platter of pork ham/ bacon/ sausages, served with hot english mustard

Delicious~ ^^

Bow with Long Island Ice Tea, very strong!!! made me tipsy immediately =.=

MAW with his 1 litre beer

I don't think I can finish this 1 litre tiger beer

After Finnegan, we went to Gypsy bar which located opposite of Finnegan, I ordered a Pina Colada

I forget the name of this drinks, but I remember it's something related to Irish xxx

My eyes felt irritating on that night, maybe because of I was tired or maybe because of the contact lens, eventually my eyes turn very red.. scary.~ Maw sent me home after we finish all the drinks.

These Days

2011-10-20T22:34:00.001+08:00

Busy busy busy...very busy...I don't have extra time to think of other things beside work stuffs, my job is getting tougher, lots of things need to to do~ I do feel stress and unfair, different people have different kind of treatment. In life the 'weak one' always bully by the 'strong one'......the 'weak one' tends to be looser~ This is Life!! Why?!!!!!! Am I being paranoid?

My current job almost overwhelm me, I hope I can pass thru the difficulties that I'm facing. Things changed! people changed! All these are beyond my control, as well as my job scobe, Im lost~

Today, someone told me: "Be happy~ Live the life that you want, not live the life that your parents want u to live. If you had a chance/ opportunity, I advise you marry to oversea and settle down there, better than you stay in this country, because the future would be tough"

and Yes! I have the liberty to choose what I like..

Movie of the month~ Real Steel

2011-10-19T23:52:00.002+08:00

Watched an unexpected cool movie on Sunday, I didn't put any expectation on this movie and I was impressed by the story of robot fighting as well as its plot~ I personally LIKE the lil kid Dakota Goyo aka Max~ He is very very cute and cool! I bet most of the people attracted by his role & his acting ♥~

Worth to watch it in cinema! It's an amazing movie~~ I might wanna watch it again for 2nd time =P

He is getting taller and soon to be a teenager~♥

Elvin & Meimei DUO Birthday Party

2011-10-17T23:55:00.001+08:00

1-Oct-11- Saturday
Somerset Jalan Ampang

First time ever I organized a 'hotel room party', it was for Elvin & Mei, as most of the people knew that the birthday boy LOVES theme party, and this year I thought of Pajamas Party! Unlike previous years, we always celebrate birthday party at a club, we decided to do something 'new' this year. Once we decided to organize a hotel room party, we searching for the 'right' place to have this party, I chose Somerset Jalan Ampang, simply because of its location,facilities with reasonable price, and yeah we satisfied with this apartment, it's new, trendy & beatiful!

As you know being an organizer ain't easy, lot of things to prepare and plan, from room booking, create event, inviting guests, budget, reply messages on FB, grocery shopping, birthday presents...etc...every single things we have to figure it out. What if nobody wanna attend? what if not enough guests to attend? what if they didn't cooperate to follow our theme? what if the party is not as good as we expected? many unexpected circustances would happen in a party... and we hope everyone was happy & enjoyed on that night.

On that day, Yvonne, Sa & Bow went to check-in Somerset at noon as we gotta make sure everything was in order, when we got into the apartment, we were happy that the apartment looked beatiful! After check-in and put down our luggages at the apartment, we went for grocery shopping at KLCC, by the time we came back to Somerset, it almost 6pm! We went down Souled-out to have our dinner, it was a nice place though~ We enjoyed the environment & the foods there. After dinner we rush back to our apartment, got ready & prepared for the party! We invited a lot of new friends this time, we need new blood!
Let's see the photos of the night~
(All the photos taken by Sa)

Our master room...cozy~^^

Everyone enjoyed and got drunk......

http://www.thebiggroup.co/bens/

Lately I always saw alot of friend checked-in Ben's Pavilion, I wonder why so many people checked-in there and that day I passed by Ben's @ KLCC, I decided to give it a try. I'll be honest that Im very satisfied the photos that I took on that day, in term of the colors & angle. Just so u know that Ben's is under the same group with Plan B which is The Big Group, wow!

Previous Plan b post, pls click here

I was impressed when I walked in to Ben's, the decor, interior design & the view are beautiful! We choose the table that next to the window, enjoy the KLCC view while we're eating. ^^

To eat is to Love! Nice one

Comfy environment, suitable for chill out with a few friends

Comfortable sofa seat, suitable for ladies to dine in

We started with HOUSE SALAD

Soft Shell Crab Pasta- Looks good!! Creative dish that combine the Japanese style + western style

Pad Thai Linguine- It's like what we had in Bangkok...their popular fried noodle Pad Thai~ not recommend to readers

Don't know what to talk during dinner? or on the first date?

They put this thing (table topics) on table to avoid awkward moment, you can pick one and question your partner/ friends, kinda like Truth game but...the questions are not dirty as Truth or dare questions. With table topics, you could have delightful moments with your friends. ~~

I find this question is really funny! And I posted it on FB~ Received a lot of hilarious replied from my friends..

Desserts are sweet & tempting! I always attract by the beauty of dessert.

I was told that this is the most popular dessert (beside from Red Velvet cake) at Ben's, hence I ordered it and YES! It taste so good at first but after had a few spoon, I find it very SWEET & filling.

~~*We didn't like it*~~

23/Sept/11- Friday

To Arthur!!!!!!!!

As you know Bow went to Arthur's day launching party as one of VIP of the night, and after one month we been waiting, the day has come! We were excited to know that Taio Cruz will be the special performer of the night, everybody can't wait to listen to his hits such as Dynamite, Break your heart, higher, dirty picture, etc....

Bow and friends were not a VIP for this concert, we only got the normal tickets same as what other people got, we felt abit dissatisfied of the arrangement since we were the 100 choosen one at the first "Calling for all arthurs" contest, but why we were not arranged to sit at the VIP area on Arthur's day? Anyhow, we still happy that we could party at Arthur's day.

Previous Arthur's day launching party post, click here

From initial 2 concert tickets to almost 10 tickets we got, so we could party with more friends at Arthur's day! hurray!! When we arrived at the car park, Pauline, Elvin and myself were so excited because we heard they're playing pop songs! Can't wait to go inside for drinking and dancing, unfortunately live band performance started after we were inside. Live band performances were boring!! pfft!!

Let the pictures tell you the story of the night::

(I didn't bring my camera, all the photos taken by Sa)

Tickets-

Just so you know, by default the theme for Arthur's day is BLACK

Bow didn't wear BLACK, few of us in SALAH theme! HAHA~I wore pink to accompany Sa.

No more free flow for us at this concert, we gotta buy a coupon and then redeem the beer at kiosk, I think this glass of beer equal to half pint, RM 10 per glass. We found that the taste of the guinness was different than what we normally ordered at outside, some people suspect they added in water to the guinness that they sold on that night~ TSK TSK!

After live band performances, finally Taio Cruz appeared on the stage and started with Break Your heart.......we can't enjoy much due to the sound system and the area that we were standing at, couldn't really enjoy as those who standing infront of the stage. We been waiting for his "Higher" & "Dynamite" whole night, we only heard he sang these two songs when we walking to the car-park. too bad! The concert ended with 5 mins fireworks! Awesome!

R.I.P Steve Jobs

2011-10-06T21:39:00.002+08:00

I just knew that Steve Jobs passed away, after read the news and his full biodata, I feel sad for his dead.
I totally agree with what Apple posted on the website today, Steve Jobs was a creative genuis! I believe everyone would agree this statement. Who doen't like APPLE MAC products? Everyone wish to own a iPhone, iPad, iPod, Mac Book or anything that related to Apple Mac..! I would say Apple Mac conquers the smartphone market, give us a new generation of technologies and bring us innovative ideas~

May Steve Jobs Rest in Peace, You'll be missed~

By the time I fly back from Penang, I gotta rush to Westlife concert..Wow~ What a busy week for me.

I was surfing Tifanny website just now, I was looking at their necklace catalogue and unconsciously thought of some old memories, I can't control what pop out on my mind tho, I'm thinking of what to get for myself on Christmas, might be get a necklace or a handbag. Out of sudden alot of memories and stuffs pop out on my mind, it just like few months ago we just celebrated Christmas eve at The Hill, and Christmas is coming soon in another 2 more months!

Cross border Hatyai Trip: Part 3 ~ Final Shopping Day + Company Annual Dinner Night

2011-10-04T23:23:00.000+08:00

13th-16th September 2011
Malaysia's Day Public Holiday Weekend Getaway

Day 3

What do I think about Hatyai?? Hmm it's a small town with a lot of stuffs to buy!!
What to do in Hatyai? Shopping, Foods & Massage! That's it!! (Unlike Bangkok, they have wild night life, ton of shopping malls, massages, temples, historical places, sight seeing...etc)
Who suitable to go Hatyai?? Auntie & Uncles, and also for LADIES who like to shop!! I barely saw any european/caucasian in hatyai (unlike Bangkok, loads of foreigners from around the world)
What to buy in Hatyai? Dried Longan, Cashew nuts, peanut, tidbits, Pistachios, all about nuts nuts nuts, ZEBRA brand stainless steel kitchenware, clothing (mostly for ladies)......

Fresh cut Mango- 10baht (so cheap!!!!)

This is very good!!!!!! ^^ Street foods- similar to our Kuih-muih melayu

We didn't do much shopping on day-3 due to we shopped till we broke already...teehee..

We did some foods shopping in the morning at Kim Yong Market, bought cashew nuts and dried longan for my mum, and then we headed to Jiranakorn Stadium for teambuilding & games, we thought it was a compulsory for everybody but we felt regret to join the games....=.=! apparently alot of people didn't join! pfft!!! If we knew that it's not compulsory, we wouldn't join..

We left the stadium earlier because we gotta went back to hotel and prepare for the annual dinner, by time we reached the saloon, the saloon was fulled of people and they couldn't understand what we wanted and what we asked, gosh we were facing difficulty to communicate with them, and due to long Q, I went back to hotel and did my own hair.

Grand Annual Dinner- The theme of this year was RED CARPET~~

My wavy hair (DIY), make up done by myself as well.

Bow x my pretty sis (her make-up done by me), she got the Best Dress award of the night =)

Surprisingly the ballroom looked fantastic!

Eleng x Kumiko x Bow

We enjoyed the humourous that brought by the emcee, he/she was fun, knew how to make joke and the most important part was, he/she knew how to control the ambience~ All of us had so much fun at the dinner!! Plus before the dinner started, we received a good news from our MD! Hurray!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everybody went into a crazy emotion! too high! xD

Thai Dancing

Mr. Best Dress of the night

My fav photo

Drinking and celebrating! So happy!!

After the dinner, we continue drinking and dancing...I would say I like this year dinner more compare to last year one, this year consists a lot of fun, happiness, better emcee, better performances...etc! I enjoyed it so much!!!! I wanna go back to Hatyai someday for shopping again.! x

Cross border Hatyai Trip: Part 2 ~ Shopping Day

2011-10-04T21:03:00.001+08:00

13th-16th September 2011
Malaysia's Day Public Holiday Weekend Getaway

Day 2 in Hatyai

Who say nothing much to buy in Hatyai? Who say Hatyai is meant to older people? Ha ha ha!
I was curious before I go to Hatyai, because I heard too many differents comments about shopping in Hatyai, I wanted to figure it out how is the trend in Hatyai, what I can get from Hatyai, is that same with Bangkok? Lemme share my shopping experienced with you..

Day 2 we scheduled to go shopping & massage, first place that we went is Morning Market that nearby the clock tower, we walking around at that area, along the street there are a few boutiques which doing wholesale & retail as well, variety of clothes for us to choose, appropriate age range to shop: from teenagers to older women, u can get short pants/ work clothes/ blouses/ auntie blouses as well..I got my work clothes from there and I was really satisfied with the design and the cutting.

We hanging around at that area until afternoon and we gotta headed to Paradize Hotel to meet up with Kumiko & the rest of the colleagues, fortunately that we went there 1 day earlier to skip the traffic jam at border, and we had one day extra to explore Hatyai ^^

Morning time- when we walking to the morning market...alot of fashion shops along the street

In Tuk-tuk, Yong & Bow

Eleng & Bow

After we had lunch at Paradise hotel and met up with Kumiko, we started our shopping journey- We went to clock tower area again for shopping, we went to clock tower market for shopping, this market is out of my expectation, it's similar to those Thai Fair that u can find in Malaysia, if you wanna buy a 'THAILAND"/ "HATYAI" print T-shirt, u can get it here, or local souvenirs, not suitablefor those who wanna buy fashionable clothing.

One thing that impressed me very much which was their telecommunication compnay, they give away this look-alike 'leaflet' to people at Hatyai airport, the simcard is attached together with the leaflet, once you activate the simcard, you can enjoy free internet- Free 3G for 10mb data, it's FREE!! If you wanna make a call, you gotta reload it, as low as 50 Thai Baht each time. OMG this is sooo cool!! First time ever! Why they can give free internet & simcard in Thailand yet Malaysia Telco company still charging us so expensive ?? Crazy!!

My fav. pharmacy in Thailand, BOOTS~~~~~~~~ Why we dont have Boots in Malaysia?????? >.

They were having a promotion for Boots products, yeah hoo~ we bought a lot of stuffs from Boots

Night market time again!!! We regret that we went to Greenway Night Market on the first night, because we found out the biggest night market in Hatyai is Asian Trade, but not ~~Greenway!~~

Gosh this is a mini version of Chatuchak Bangkok, if you like Chatuchak, you would probably like Asian Trade! Asian Trade located behind Greenway, you can walk from Greenway to Asian Trade, as we encountered that most of the Tuk-tuk will put us at Greenway but not Asian Trade, we walked from Greenway to Asian trade around 10-15 mins.

When we reached Asian Trade, my eyes turned bigger and bigger! Because this market matched my expectation! ^^ We took around 3-4 hours to walk around this market but we couldn't finish it! It's huge!!

I find that the price range in Hatyai is slightly higher than Bangkok, and the people there cannot speak & understand English, thus we had some communication problem with them. Surprisingly most of the Hatyai people can speak a lil bit mandarin/ teoh cheow dialects...

3 of us shopped until we drop, they almost lost in the market... this is what we got! See! A lot of things!!
*the big red bag on the ground not belong to us*

Malaysia's Day Public Holiday Weekend Getaway

When our company confirmed that our annual trip & annual dinner will be held in Hatyai, we hurray for the trip, we been waiting the trip coming and time flies! Few months after we been discussing about the trip, the day has come! Before we go there, we been discussed about how we go there, either take a train or flight and ended up we decided to drive to Hatyai! 5 of us in a car for this roadtrip~ We depart in Shah Alam at 9am+ and straight to the northen side, we stopped at Sauk for lunch, we had their very popular river fish, fish balls, different kind of river fishes with different style of flavors.

After lunch, we headed to the northen part of Malaysia, it was my first time to go Hatyai and Perlis area, it was not as bad that I thought, we were very excited when we reached the border area, can't wait for visitng and shopping!

I ♥ THAILAND

This is Hatyai Tuk-tuk!! It is different with BKK Tuk-tuk!! this is like a small van/truck

After check-in hotel, we took a tuk-tuk to their popular seafood restaurant- Chong Khao Seafood Restaurant, recommeded by hotel staffs~

Thai Coconut! But it taste like Malaysia coconut! It's sour~ >.

Grilled Crab~~~~~ YUMMY~

Their most popular fish!! Spicy to the max!! =.=!! I cannot take it! But it's tasty!

While we were eating our delicious foods, we heard a weird voice at our back, we saw an elephant at our back!! Apparently the owner of the elephant was doing business which they sell the sugarcane to whomever wanna feed the elephant

Veggie~

Grilled Squid~

Hatyai Popular seafood fried noodle

The main course- TOM YAM KUNG~

This is soooo nice!! sour & spicy! I ate the chilli padi accidently, gosh it was sooo spicy! I can felt that the heat came up from my stomach to my head! I sweated immediately~

Squid Egg inside the Squid~ Wow~ First time ever I tried this~ It's gender, a bit similar to sea-coconut

Everyone was satisfied with the foods, especially Mr. Mike..he loved it! He loved spicy foods!

We went to Greenway Night Market after the dinner, can't wait for shopping...

Eleng felt disappoint with this market, because she got nothing much to buy over there. But I bought a few pieces of clothes though =p

http://www.gtower.com.my/

G tower becoming one of the happening night spot in KL, there are a few restaurants and a few bars/pubs in G tower, it's always good to try out new place!! We went to Social after we finish our dinner at Plan B, Harriet's friend working at Social as Manager so we decided to go there. When we reached Social, we were excited about the free cocktail drinks for ladies...tee hee!! 3 of us redeem the free cocktails and Andrew ordered a pint of beer.

Harrier's friend- Max came to our table and brought some shots for us- cocktail, tequila shot, vodka shot, jagerbomb...OMG! We wanted to stop drinking continuosly...it's scary to drink continuosly! I felt terrible when I drank Jägermeister, it's not nice to drink it, but it's nice after mix it with redbull and become Jagerbomb.

Socal @KL was not so busy on that night, just a few of us at there, and they have a life band performing t after 12am, we were drinking and listening to the live band.

Make Andrew drink the Jägermeister -(without the red bull!) Jafermeister is terrible!!

After Tequila Shot~~ My face became sour

Another shot!! Scary!! This ain't Jägermeister

After we started tipsy, we go to View Rooftop bar at 30th floor, we dance we enjoyed over there...

View rooftop bar is not as beautiful as skybar/ Luna bar, the interior is very simple, good to chill out though

The nightview from View Rooftop bar is not as beautiful as the view from Skybar/ Luna Bar

Side view- nice nice!!

Sit outside is better! Chilling~

We standing at the bar, this is how inside look like.

I had a great night with Andrew, Harriet and Vicky! It's been ages since I last seen Harriet~ Would like to contact her to hang out again soon~ ^^

Plan B, Bangsar Village I
http://www.thebiggroup.co/planb/

I have to clarify that Im not a food blogger, I just like foods and enjoy nice foods during weekend! I wanna clear all my overdue posts and update my blog regularly. It's not easy to be a blogger even though Im not a professional one, what a part-time blogger like me have to do to maintain my blog?
1st- I have to take nice photos for posting here, for foods and beverages post, I gotta capture the foods as fast as possible before my friends/myself start eating it
2nd- I gotta transfer photos from my camera to my pc, adjust the color a bit, crop if needed and resize the photos
3rd- I gotta think of what to write- this is the most headache part, I have to improve my writing skill, there is space for me to improve! I have to do more reading...

Well back to the post, my ex-colleague Harriet asked me out on last 2 Saturday, with our friend Andrew, and yea! I haven't seen Harriet for 3 years, time flies!! After I left Mega, I didnt hang out and see them anymore, and I wanted to hang out with Lai Mun as well but she was not free on that night. Harriet was friendly enough to offer a pickup to me & Andrew as well but Andrew didn't want to trouble her, so we met at Plan B at 8pm++

Plan B is one of the restaurants under THE BIG GROUP

Long time no see, Harriet ^^

Harriet x Andrew

Wild Mushroom Linguine

scented with thyme truffle oil

Spicy Aglio Olio

spaghetti saut ed with olive oil & slow-roasted garlic & chillies

Carbonara

spaghetti with turkey ham & saut ed mushrooms, tossed in classic creamy sauce

Foods look DELICIOUS right?? I would say the foods are fusion of eastern & western ~ Good try!

Dessert time.........my favourite~~

Red Velvet cake! Their Signature Cake ^^ I guess it made from Dragon Fruits- Unique!

Vineria.It Italian Restaurant @ BSC

http://www.vineriait.com/

When I google about this restaurand, I discovered that the owner used to own Nerovivo & Neroteca! Wow! Why they sold Nerovivo & Neroteca? Haha~ I'm curious! *my previous Nerovivo dinner post, click here *

Bart asked me to have dinner and he told me there is a good Italian restaurant @ BSC, I have no idea there is an Italian resturant because I always go to WIP & Alexis. When I reached the entrance of Vineria.it, I was like...OH! This is the one!! hehe...I always passed by this restaurant but didn't notice about it.
I was happy to visit this restaurant, I find this is similar to Nerovivo concept because of the interior decor, they put a lot of drawing on wall, and they have Italian waiter & waiters to serve customers! *Gasp*
It's truly a good place for those who like wine & dine, I saw a waiter assisted the customer on wine tasting, good service! ^^

The Menu

We sitting at outside, the view is good ^^

Definitely started with vinegar + olive oil bread dipping~~

Peach Juice~~ it taste good!! Imported product!

Ribbon pasta....It looks tasty~

This is my prawn pasta, recommended by the waitress! It's really good!!

The Bar

We didn't order dessert or appertizer on that night, so I m gonna try out their pizza & dessert next time!! The foods are delicious! Recomend to those who like Italian cuisine! This is a real Italian restaurant with Italian chef & waiterss... ^^

I heard Vineria is the offspring of Bar Italia? Im gonna find out? what is the relationship between Vineria x Bar Italia x Nero Group? Im curious~ Hehe~

TOMOE x MOS

http://tomoe.com.my/english/

We decided to go Subang area for dinner instead of KL area, because of the birthday girl lives in Subang area, and I suggested to go Tomoe and the birthday girl agreed with it. (To be honest Tomoe is not suitable for birthday celebration, it's kinda quiet- no music!!! ) Well I been to Tomoe for lunch a couple of times and I always ordered my fav. cod fish~Pfft! I know it's boring to order the same fish everytime, therefore this time we ordered some other foods.

Let photos tell the story of the night:::

During Raya & Merdeka -- We Like Hiking- Broga Hill

2011-09-20T23:05:00.003+08:00

1-Sept-11= Broga Hill
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broga

Yes! I found a new interest!! I like hiking! It's fun & healthy~ In fact I like outdoor activities, we are gonna arrange another hiking session soon =)

I been hearing people talk about Broga Hill so many times but I never been to Broga Hill, why? Because I was lazy and I couldn't wake up so early because of hiking! And I don't have hiking buddy to go with me.
Out of sudden I thought of wanna go hiking when Vicky mentioned Broga to me, I wanna try and I wanna photo shoot! so Why not? Take photos + Hiking + Healthy... ^^

I woke up at 415am in the morning, I could see the weather is very windy and it seemed like gonna rain, Hon Yew called me and he sounded dizzy: I think it's gonna rain soon, shall we cancel later? I said: I gotta call Sa first to double check. After that I called Sa and apparently she is on the way to Kajang toll to gather with us, alright means that we have to follow the plan!

I prepared and packed my bag (Shit I dont have a backpack), Paul reached my house and followed by Lem & Hon yew, I went down and we waiting for Yvonne, we carpool to Kajang toll to meet up with Sa, Toh & Wai yen, and also Sa's primary schoolmates.. Alright, arrived at Broga area around 545am and we started to walk at 6am...First time in my life to walk into the jungle at 6am! that's crazy and fun! You will be surprised that a ton of people came for hiking, all ages- children, senior people, teenagers...young adults.

At first it was quite easy and relax for us to walk, when the trail was getting steep, I felt very hard to breathe! I have to breathe heavily! Who ask u so lazy to do exercise?? It took 1 hour to reach the peak! It's not easy! Why? Because of I didn't wear sport shoe/hiking shoe, because it was my first time for hiking, because I seldom do exercise so I had to breathe heavily! gosh finally we arrived at the peak at 7am! Phewwwww~~Very tired and exhausted!

715am - The sky looked dark blue..turning to sky blue~~ very nice weather, its windy and chilling at the peak

Bow...relaxing and resting after 1 hour walk....

The sky turned brighter!! Yeah!! We made it!! Lolx!!!!

We looked at the sun came up behind the hill, it's nice to see sunrise! A brand new day has arrived! Yay! A brand new hope =)

The grass -茅草 they make a very nice view of broga~

The panoramic view~~ NICE~

I like this photo! ^^ good feel~ Taken by Sa~

Look at the cloudy sky! It's nice! Blue Sky with White Cloud~ Become a nice view~

Spot a very cute puppy at there...Dog-hiking! How cool!! Aww~ I like this puppy ^^

yea Yea Yea We made it~

All of us!! Except the camera-man= Sa! Jump!!!!!!!!!!!!! Higher~~ We were happy & satisfied!! Even though we had to wake up early in the morning! We had good fun and enjoyed the day!

*PS: Hope U like my photos *

♥ During Raya & Merdeka -- Malacca Day trip

2011-09-18T21:24:00.000+08:00

30-Aug-11= Hari Raya= Malacca

It gonna be a long post!!! Im very lazy to blog! HELP! a lot of overdue posts that I haven't posted~
Im just got back from Hatyai! I will blog about it soon...^^

Actually I just went to Malacca on end of May, the main reason that attracted me to go back again is because of I wanna try out the mille crepe cake! I love pastries! I heard a lot of good reviews of this shop and this cake! so........The first stop in Malacca was Nadeje, buddies kept nagging about "What kind of cake so famous? and why must we try it in Malacca? What so special about this cake? blah blah blah...." I told them to try it first before they comment so much..haha never try never know right?
The traffic on that day was very bad, crowded and jam everywhere~ When we arrived at Pahlawan Mall, we immediately went to the top floor to look for Nadeje, and we saw a long queue in front of the cafe..this proof that how many people crazy for this cake!!

This is the one- NADEJE - They have 2 outles in Malacca which located in Pahlawan Mall & Plaza Mahkota

Bow x Yvonne- Q-ing for the mille crepe cakes..

The menu- variety of mille cakes! Unfortunately we only managed to try the 2 flavours!!! the rest SOLD OUT! OMG!! Im gonna try them again next time!!

AHHHH!! Chocolate Strawberry~~ The other one I have forgotten the name- Mango/ Lemon flavour..

I wanna try ORIGINAL one!! >.<

It was below my expectation- reason was because of the crepe cake was not cold enough! It melts very quick in hot weather! before we put the cake in our mouth, the cream was melted already...gosh.....I wanna try it again !!!

After we had the mille cakes, we headed to Jonker street! It's a must go place in Malacca! As usual we walking around and did some shopping and try local street foods ~~ It was fun to hang out with some new friends Entany/Lem/ Sanni and usual friends! We walk, we eat, we buy.....!

When u are in Malacca, definitely not to skip for trying Baba/Nyonya foods! I go to this restaurant everytime I in Malacca! It was a heritage restaurant that selling Baba/Nyonya curry laksa/asam laksa & Cendols/ice kacang! And the queue is always the same!

I like their dried noodles- because they put tuna on top of the noodle ^^ Yummy!!!!!!

Heritage feel

All of us @ Jonker Street!!

Again, it was a very crowded & busy day! Lem/ Peter/ Entany wanted to go to Satay Celup for dinner, when we reached the restaurant, we saw a very long Q! the Q as long as 3-4 shoplots! Crazy! and we decided not to Q for that as it was really long! I suggested to go Portuguese settlement for seafood, when we arrived there we saw all the tables were fulled and the restaurant was lacked of staffs/waiters! We been waiting for more than 15 mins but still nobody to take order for us, eventually the sky turned darker and darker and the rain started! We got fedup with that and we finally went to a chicken rice shop in Melaka Raya for dinner! what a hectic evening! * I had it with my mum and my auntie before last year*

Black bean Soup- My mum could cook a better one ^^

Asam Fish

Chicken Rice Ball- Only in Malacca! ^^ I like it! The chicken rice ball from this restaurant is good!

The roasted chicken was so-so! very dry though! We didnt complain much about the foods because all of us were hungry! the only thing I like from this shop is the rice ball! Tasty! They are not as salty as the other chick rice restaurant in Melaka~ ^^

Hakka Republic

2011-09-12T22:21:00.001+08:00

17-Aug-11
http://www.hakkarepublic.com/

After came down from Smurf Hill, we went to Hakka Republic for dinner, we wanted to try out the foods few months ago but they closed for some special event when we went there last time, and this time finally can try out their foods! I thought they serve Hakka Cuisine because the restaurant name is Hakka Republic, when I looked at the menu, there was no any hakka cuisine at all, all of them were fusion foods- western + Asian... The decor of this restaurant is chinese style enough, with typical chinese RED color, lantern and chinese wording..oriental concept with western fusion foods. COOL~

U will pass by this before the entrance

Dining Area- Decor of the table

Look at this, lantern and some drawing

Bar & drinking area- they have live music performace on weekend, wanna know more pls check out their website

Chinese Writing & Drawing

See!! This is the appetizer, we usually have some bread & bun @ Western Restaurant before we start, but we had it at Hakka Republic, kinda weird right? xD

The appetiser

Hakka Republic marinated tuna tatar with green tea soba & Japanese citrus dressing- THIS IS SO GOOD! YUMMY~~~~~~~~

Grilled Cod~ My favorite cod fish again ^^ YAY!! it's very tasty!!!

Dessert time~! Dessert is always my favorite! I like how sweet they taste like, I like the decor of dessert!
Molten chocolate cake is one of my favorite dessert! OMG! speaking in which, I miss Leonardo's Molten Chocolate Cake so much!!! MAW and I decided to order this at Hakka Republic as we were satisfied all the dishes, we would like to try out their dessert and compare! So far Molten Chocolate cake from Leonardo is the best I ever had! So we were keen to try out this at Hakka Republic!

Luckily it never disappointed us! The taste was great! it's about the same with Leonardo! awwwww!!! Wonderful!

Overall the foods were delicious! I rate them 4 out of 5 stars! Even the foods are slightly pricey but it worth for money! ^^

One Day in Fraser Hill

2011-09-06T23:58:00.002+08:00

17-Aug-11 - Wednesday

It was Selangor state holiday! Wow, just back from holiday not more than 2 days and I got 1 day holiday! Love August! ^^ I really love August'2011 so much! Everything seemed to be good! =)

MAW asked me to go a day trip with him long time ago and finally we had a chance to go for a day trip~

I think it was my 2nd time to go to Fraser Hill, the first time was when I was still a lil girl *I forgot*.

Before I went out of my house, my mum told me: " You better bring some candy/sweets together so that u can eat them later when u have motion sickness", and I was like.."errr...sure or not?" And she told me some stories about her friend had a serious motion sickness when she went up to Fraser Hill last time, and I felt that I have to go there and feel how twisty is the road, anyways I promised MAW to go there so I have to go no matter how twisty the road is.

Passed by this place before we started going up hill, I thought it was a lake but apparently it's a dam~ what a beautiful view~

and YES!! I had motion sickness, the road is crazily twisty!! The road is like S/ U shape continuous for 30-45 mins untill u reached to the hill! If before you go to Fraser Hill you had a very big meal, I bet u will throw up at the half way or u will throw up when u arrived at Fraser Hill. Actually I wanted to call my mummy and tell her how bad the road is...hahahaha but I didnt.

FRASER HILL *Sepia Mode*

We went to Smokehouse to have afternoon tea/ it's tea time when we arrived at Fraser, we were hungry at that moment, to be honest not many people around Fraser Hill, very quiet and peaceful. Why don't government implement or do something to promote Fraser Hill? I saw a lot of resorts were closed already, wasted! Or maybe because of the journey? make the road straighter so that people willing to drive up to the hill :D

The Smokehouse @ Fraser Hill

English Old-style Mansion

Definitely ordered scones & tea...very tasty...yum yum!!!! Love Scones~~

Remember to put strawberry jam on top~ Add cream on top of the strawberry jam is nicer ^^ *but fat*

Very peaceful & quiet~~ Nice to chill out over here...^^

Wore my long skirt...hahahaha!! Like it~~

Who is MAW? he is the one...otherwise he would complain about why I never posted his photo on blog. LOL!!!!!!!!

To be honest, nothing much to do in Fraser Hill, we drove around and walked around after we had tea & scones @ Smokehouse, took some photos and then we headed back to KL. Fraser Hill is suitable for a bunch of friends to stay overnight, have some room party & drinking session, otherwise you would get bored~ Or......for those who likes to hike and see birds.. xD

I would recommend Fraser Hill to those who get sick of city life and need a peace of mind to relax & chill.

GoodBye

4/Sept/11-Sunday

It's always sad to say goodbye! Even though say goodbye to someone that I not always see, finally I understand why people like to say " I will see u around/ I will see u soon" but not goodbye~ Goodbye is something like farewell, maybe after u say goodbye to someone, u won't have a chance to see him/she again in the entire life.....
=(

叶子的离开,不是风的追求, 也不是树的挽留,而是命运的安排,自然的选择。该来的会来,该走的会走。有时候离开并不意味着结束, 而是另一种的开始~

Birthday Trip Day 3: Marina Skypark

Marina Skypark Website

14/Aug/11

This will be the LAST post of my birthday trip in Singapore ~ teehee!

On the last day in Singapore, we went to have breakfast at one of the local style restaurant in Bugis, I remember I had dried noodle but the taste is so different with our dried noodle in Malaysia, we normally put soy sauce/ black sauce in the noodle but they put tomato sauce instead, so that the noodle taste sweet..=P

After breakfast we took a cab to Plaza Singapura for my favourite cookies- BENGAWAN SOLO, I bought Casava Cheese back home (wanted to buy one more but I ran out of cash, tsk!) I highly recommend Bengawan Solo to all of you! Their cookies are really really good and delicious! I like Corn Flakes & Casava Cheese flavor, they are very very tasty!! U would eat them non-stop after the first bite ^^ Why don't they open an outlet in Malaysia? Im sure a lot of people will buy it!

We headed to Marina Skypark after we finish and bought the cookies, we were so excited for visitng Skypark! When I knew that we could only walk around public observation deck, we were so disappointed! Pfft! We didn't feel the ticket is worth it (SGD20/ticket) for only walking around the observation deck, plus the weather was so hot on that day, we thought we can go to have some drinks at the cafe there but it doesn't open for public, it only opens for hotel guests, as well as the swimming pool. boo~!!

The beautiful landscape that view from skypark

Panoramic Cityscape

AHH~ the beautiful yet trendy swimming pool~ I wanna stay overnight at Marina BaySands Hotel

Would I go back to Skypark again? Maybe not, except there is some special event that held at there or I stay at marina bay sands hotel someday =P

Overall, I had good times in Singapore, Thanks to my BFF for accompanying me to Singapore and gave me such memorable & happy memories. I'm looking forward to my coming holiday & trip!!

Birthday Trip Day 2: Breakfast @ China Town, Lunch @ Marina Sand Bay, Dinner @ Kallang Foods court
13/Aug/11

Day 2 was a long day!!! We went to a few places in one day and had so much fun!! :D
Woke up early and got ready to go out to those attractions, we planned to go to Marina Bay Sand Skypark and Sentosa island, unfortunately the Skypark was closed for private event, boo!! Disappointed on that! In fact we checked the website before we went there, it showed that it was only close after 7pm but when we went there at noon time, we were told that the skypark was closed for whole day.. =.=!

Okay...gotta tell the story one by one...

Breakfast @ Chinatown Kopitiam, it's a typical Chinese Kopitiam, similar to Oldtown. I ordered Almond Tea & French Toast, very very tasty! ^^

After we had breakfast, we took MRT to Marina Bay Station, and walked around 20 mins from MRT Station to Marina Sand Bay, the sun light was killing us, really hot on that day!! We were melted >.<

If u don't wannna walk under the sun for 20 mins+, I advise you to take a cab to Marina Sand Bay~

Sa x Bow @ Marina Bay City Gallery

The City-scape, looks like Hong Kong

And finally! We arrived MARINA SAND BAY SHOPPING MALL, I like this mall alot! The interior design and the environment there is awesome! very cozy! No doubt it is a luxury mall~ You can find all the Luxury Brands at there. ♥♥♥

Which girl doesn't like CHANEL? Double C is tempting! ♥

I heard this mall was inspired by Venice & Macau's Venetian... U can take a sampan ride in the mall ^^

After we finish our lunch then we headed to Sentosa Island! Boo Skypark & its website!

We stopped at Impiah Lookout to take photos and walking around, it was my first time stepped into this place!

BIG MERLION!!

Next Station- Siloso Beach! Most Happening place @ Sentosa

We saw LUGE & SKYRIDE and without any hesitation, we bought the tickets to take this! Very very very excited and fun to take this ride! I want to go back again n again! Do u see what's on the bottom of the poster? ONCE is never ENOUGH. And YES! Once was never enough! Luckily we took the Two Tracks Combo~

ONCE IS NEVER ENOUGH

BOW and Buddies @ SKYRIDE & LUGE HELMET xD

This was my happiest memory in Singapore, I wanna go back to SENTOSA!!!!!!!!! ♥♥♥♥♥

After we finish our ride and Luge, we were exhausted! We walking around the Siloso Beach and I wanted to go to Cafe Del Mar again! Haha I like Cafe Del Mar! ♥ And spotted some handsome guys over there~ LOL!

PS: If you don't know what is Cafe Del Mar or never heard of it, better google it~

Unwind! Unwind! Was so relax at that moment! Waiting for the sunset while drinking cocktail, along with nice music! Love Life! ♥

Sa & I ordered Long Island Ice Tea and I got tipsy ~ Very happy! teehee~~ The Nachos were good, it came with Salsa Sauce & Cream Cheese Sauce.. the cream cheese sauce was awesome! Why we cannot eat cream cheese sauce with Nachos in KL? Pfft!

The Beverage Menu

Looking at the sunset...........I like this picture

Beside from that, we saw some funny people over there, a few drunkards in the pool and they were looking for girls to have fun with, we watching them like a watching a free live show! Very funny! I almost asked to swim with one of the drunkards but I was not convenience on that day plus I didnt bring any swim suit or spare clothe.. Will definitely go back again to Sentosa~ Stay there for a night maybe.. ^^

Tipsy Sa x Sober Yvonne

Wow! What a long post!! Should I continue to write at the same post or should I open a new post?Hmmm

HAHAHA continue to write the next itinerary!

Even Though we liked the environment at Cafe Del Mar, but it's getting late, the sky turned darker and darker! We have to move on to another place! We wanted to try some local foods thought so we headed to old airport road @ Kallang to try out some local foods. I was craving for Singapore Style Hokkien Mee.

The famous Hokkien Mee stalls didn't open so we ordered from another stall.. tsk~

We ordered Fried Carrot cake & Hokkien Mee

HMM~ I still prefer our Local Foods~ Our hawker foods are more delicious~!

PS: If you want to try Singapore Style Hokkien Mee in KL, u can go to Pavilion Food court~

Last but not least! We ended up at Clark Quay to have some drinks with a friend of Sa, Sarah~ It was more like a girls night out because three of us talked about relationship, friendship, life .....what a long day! Exhausted~~

Clark Quay was full of people! a ton of people hanging out over there! Why can't we have so many pubs/bars/ cafe at a same place in KL? I think Sunway Giza & The Curve are similar to Clark Quay but Clark Quay has a beautiful nightview ~ We don't have a riverside in KL~ Maybe in Putrajaya area should develope something like this.. =P

Singapore Again!! I remember last year I went to Singapore as well for my birthday! I hope not Singapore anymore for next year birthday! hehe
All my close friends knew that I had bad experience early this year in Singapore and why would I went back to Singapore again for my Birthday? I don't mind to go back to Singapore with my buddies and I'm totally over with those unhappy memories already, it's part of my history =)

Buddy-buddy asked me to choose in between Singapore and some islands, and I choose Singapore cause it's easier for us to travel there at the last mins decision, bought our air-tix and waiting for the day!
Finally they day has came but we found that really nothing much to do in Singapore! maybe went there quite a few times already, went to every popular attractions before except UNIVERSAL STUDIO, we didnt go to Universal Studio due to the crowd! Heard the crowd is bad~

Day 1 was just a relaxing day to both of us, we went to BUGIS JUNCTION, BUGIS MARKET for tea time and shopping, really enjoyed it so much.
Firsy day already shop till I dropped :-/

Bugis Junction (testing testing by GF3)

After dropped our luggages at Sa's cousin house, we headed to Bugis for late lunch and shopping, we saw this cafe, LET'S SWEETS! we suprised that the price for the dessert buffet is so reasonable! SGD5 - 4 dessets + 1 drinks, SGD10- any desserts + 1 drinks (free flow)

We were so hungry so we choose the dessert buffet SGD 10 to try everything! all the desserts look really cute & tasty! How wish KL has something like this! Im dessert lover.. !!

Choose whichever u like ~~~ all u can eat!

Crepe with Ice-cream~ Choco Banana Flavor

Crepe with Ice-cream ~ Caramel Flavour

This dessert looks nice but taste not so good >.<

Arthur Mun Mun with her Dessert...

The foods were so filling!! We felt so FULL! *who ask u so greedy to order so much*

And when I saw there is something on the small board- Pls kindly avoid food wastage, excess food will be chargeable at our discretion

After we saw this message, we had no choice and we had to finish all the desserts lol!!! This cafe is a very cosy place for tea session with friends along with delicious desserts.. ^^

ENJOY~~~~~~~~~RELAX~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!!!

Simple & Nice! and it's very shining! Bling Bling
