Ben's KLCC has poor quality service

2011-12-18T17:39:00.000+08:00

I went to Ben's for the first time today in KLCC.

The food were overall good, if not, perfect. But the service is really bad.

We waited at the front door for so long until someone finally came and welcomed us to our seat. Then we had to wave our hands frantically before getting a waiter to finally come and take our orders. By the time the waitress finally came to our table, she took our orders as if she was trying to catch a train. Right after each of us ordered our food, she took away the menu instantly. I felt like I needed to order quickly before she leaves our table or I would have to wave my hands frantically again to get someone to take my orders.

Service was really slow and bad, the waiter and waitress were not friendly, and doesn't seem to welcome us as guests at all.

I would love to introduce my friends to Ben's as the food is great. But I don't think I will as the service is really bad.

To be honest, I would rather go for a restaurant with average food and great service, than a restaurant with great food and lousy service.

We ARE paying the service tax after all.

The last thing a girl wants is to be proven right.

2011-12-11T14:48:00.000+08:00

Here's one of those posts...

I'm sure everyone knows how we girls tend to "think too much", "make up stories" in our minds, and of coz, blaming everything on the guys even though they've done nothing wrong - yet.

You see, every time a girl gets jealous, or sulk over a matter, the last thing she wants is for you to prove her right (although she doesn't want to be proven wrong either). But trust me, she wants to be proven wrong more than she wants to be proven right (although it never seems that way). Confusing, I know, but try to follow me.

For example, when your GF gets jealous of you getting too closely with another girl (which you have absolutely nothing going on with), the last thing she wants is for you to prove her right, that you are having something going on with the other girl.

Let me paint the picture clearer for you, I'll tell you my very own story.

I've gotten jealous over other girls numerous times that it's impossible for me to keep count. Yes, I am that insecure, but of coz I blame it on the guys for not being able to give me the emotional security that I needed. But I'd rather blame myself for being over sensitive and insecure, than to find out one day, that I was right to be jealous.

Let's make it even clearer.

I used to have this BF whom was nice looking, sociable, smart, and overall, what most girls would be attracted to. The thing about having guys like these as a BF is that, there are bound to be other girls lurking around trying their luck (he denies it all the way, but hey, that's what it felt like to me).

So trying to reason with him regarding this matter was a vain as it ended up into a heated argument like always. Things got bad that eventually both of us headed with our own ways, which I felt it was a blessing in disguise. At least we're now both free of our own emotional torture.

Back to the topic, girls doesn't want to be proven right.

I was jealous over this girl whom I shall name her as Rose for the ease of your understanding. Rose was tall, slim and pretty. Never knew her well but she's the kind of girl that guys would go gaga over at first glance. Rose was very friendly, over friendly in my opinion, but not to my ex BF, whom I shall name him as Thorn.

Thorn and I had several heated arguments because of Rose. I was the type of girl who feels insecure about myself, and other pretty ladies, I still think I am. Thorn always sided her and insisted I over think things, which is why reasoning with him never worked, it was always my fault.

So things have ended quite some time now and we've both moved on. But the question is, was I right or wrong for "over thinking" things?

I was proven right today, that being jealous and "over thinking" things between Rose and Thorn was justifiable. Saw multiple pictures that spoke more than a million words.

One last question, despite being proven right at last, why do I feel such disappointment?

So now that I've finished my story, I guess it's easier for you to understand that no girls wants to be proven right. The reason they get jealous or insecure is because they care too much about you that it scares them. Yes, they might not be handling their emotions in a proper way, but it's your part to help them. It's your part to show your loved ones that it is okay to feel jealous, that it is okay to "over think" things. But most importantly, it is your part to prove them wrong.

I made cupcakes!

2011-12-09T15:19:00.002+08:00

I know I said I'll blog more often, but the truth is, I'm just too busy with my life.

Sometimes when I finally have the time to write something, I feel like the time is better off used by relaxing myself.

I took a day off yesterday and guess what?

I made cupcakes!

Nice? =p

I made 3 boxes of these.

It was really hard work and time consuming but it's the self satisfaction that makes it all worth while.

And it tastes yummy too!

Brownie turns 2 !!!

2011-11-22T01:24:00.000+08:00

Brownie's birthday is today!!!

22nd November

She is proudly 2 years old now.

Love her lots!

Sorry wrong post!!!

2011-11-22T00:49:00.000+08:00

OMG people!

I'm so sorry!!!

I didn't know the Fuck you jerk post was on live as the 1st post on my blog.

o.O

I wrote that post last year in June I think, about my 2 years ago ex boyfriend. Then I saved it under draft. Until recently only I decided to publish it as a just-for-reads post. Didn't know blogger.com posted it live as the 1st post!!!

OMG!!!

So sorry to disappoint all my haters who took the time to leave me comments congratulating me for getting toyed and dumped, but I'm perfectly happy with my life right now, hence the lack of time to blog. (will be sharing bout that in the upcoming few posts)

Oooppps to you!

You can try to hurt me by leaving anonymous nasty comments, but that's as far as you can go and will ever go in life - forever trying, never succeeding. Kiss my arse losers!!

Many thanks to those who comfort me, I'm doing perfectly well, it was all an misunderstanding! =)

I want to blog!

2011-11-18T22:59:00.000+08:00

I know I've practically abandoned my blog.

And I'm SORRY!!!

I really want to blog, but I just can't seem to find the time nor the mood, not to mention the words.

I promise I will update my blog once every 2 days from tonight onwards.

Okay, maybe once every 3 days for starters.

Here's a photo of me just in case you've miss me.

More to come!!!

I'm glad I' m back, and I hope I'm here to stay!

Cheesy Photoshoot

2011-07-05T11:43:00.000+08:00

Went for a studio shoot with the family on Sunday. It was a free session with free make up and hair setting that my aunt got for us. I didn't wanna go but my mom insisted the whole family did, so we did.

It wasn't at a studio to be exact, it was at a beauty salon somewhere in Puchong. Saw a few other ladies/females (won't exactly call them girls), that have already done their photoshoot and gosh the make up + hair look sooooooooooooooo "leong". In other words, horribly out of time.

I didn't wanna set my hair or let them do my make up, I already have my usual make up on so I was fine. Mom and sis did the make up and hair instead.

Don't have a photo to show you guys but mom and sis both look weird and the poses that they were asked to do by the photographer scared the shit out of me. Hahhaa. Very very out of time type of pose.

Sis's photos turned out not bad in the end. Haha. Mine was horrible as the photographer asked me to act cute and put on some fury jacket which did not belong to me.

Gosh it was exactly like those very cheesy type of photoshoot.

But manage to get at least one picture whereby it's just plain old me, nothing special, but I quite like it.

New home in Cyberjaya

2011-06-21T13:59:00.000+08:00

If I told you I got a property in Cyberjaya, would you believe me? =p

A bit farfetched, but it might be true. I'll leave it to you guys to think. =)

So, what do you think?

My 1 and only...

2011-06-21T13:53:00.001+08:00

Yup, it's my one and only birthday candle for this year.

Kinda sad, but it's still ok. =)

Forgotten to make a birthday wish this year though... Wonder if it's too late now?

My birthday was on 13th June!

2011-06-15T11:43:00.001+08:00

Had my 23rd birthday on the 13th of June. Didn't have the time or the mood to update my blog hence the delay. =/

Taken at Porto Romano, Mont Kiara on my birthday.

Noticed I cut my hair? =p Wanted it shorter, will just have to wait till next month to cut it again. =p

It's getting more demotivating.

2011-05-24T15:07:00.002+08:00

New Stuff for the New Me

2011-04-30T16:08:00.003+08:00

Ok I know I haven't really shared much about my job since I started in January. Basically coz so much have been happening and I was just too busy, and lazy, to write about it.

I'm currently working in HomeGuru Sdn Bhd, a Malaysian property portal set up as part of a joint venture between All Property Media Pte Ltd, Singapore and RedBerry, Malaysia. The portal provides consumers a platform to identify available properties for purchase, sale, rental or investments, and a direct channel to search for and contact Agents for assistance. Designed with the end-user in mind, the portal boosts real time access to multi-media rich content covering property and home-related products, services, news, advice, guides, tools and a rapidly growing online property database in Malaysia. It works closely with prominent real estate developers in Malaysia and overseas, housing agents and home-related firms.

Ok so I copied and paste from the company's website/product. So feel free to browse around.

www.homeguru.com.my

So Basically since January until April, I was working as a Telesales Executive. Basically approaching property agents via phone and selling our services to them. Did a few presentation in some agencies as well as conducted training sessions for agents in the office. It was a very productive 4 months experience, money wise. Haha.

So during the company Bintan trip, I got offered to transfer department to the agent sales team (outdoor sales), the only thing was I didn't have a car to go about in KL. Company offered to give me an interest free downpayment loan for the car. Awesome and I took the offer. Parents were paying the remaining balance in cash and I've gotta pay back them with a lower interest rate. Not such a bad deal after all. =)

Starting from May, I'll be officially in the Agent Sales Team and yesterday was my last day as a Telesales Executive in the company.

Got lotsa new stuff within these few days.

New Business Card. =p

New company laptop. It's red, loving it!

Dell Vostro V130. Super light and slim.

And I got my brand new car today.

Saga FL, Executive.

Metallic Silver.

Super determined to make this quarter an even more productive one than before. Haha. I know I can do it. =)

The only problem is... How do you drive a car again? =.=

Don't make sense?!

2011-04-28T11:27:00.000+08:00

I just realized the word printing on my lil black book.

"It introduces my friend! My friend is very pure and bright. Also the white egg it had a same smile!"

What the heck does it even mean?

I guess I'm just not bright enough to get it. =.=

Determined

2011-04-24T23:05:00.000+08:00

Determined to be successful in my life.

I'm a smart, independent and beautiful young lady.

I can do it.

Have faith, be strong.

Believe.

What I'm feeling and thinking today, determines my future.

You'll see.

2011-04-22T09:18:00.000+08:00

Went out till very late the night we touched down SG, but it was soooo fun! XD

The KL team before we left SG.

Life

2011-04-20T17:59:00.002+08:00

It's sad that in life, you have to lose something precious in order to truly learn something in return...

This is very random!

2011-04-17T21:22:00.000+08:00

If there was one thing in your life that you could make different, what would it be?

Just something that I've been thinking bout randomly but couldn't quite decide on.

Wouldn't it be great if someone would actually invent a time machine that works?

But then again, I wouldn't be able to afford to pay for the machine in the first place.

=.="

Guess I'm pretty much stuck with the way my life is right now.

Crosses finger and hope for the best.

It's Monday tomorrow, unfortunately.

My Convocation

2011-04-15T08:56:00.000+08:00

It was the celebration ceremony of me completing my 1 year foundation in physics and 4 years course in Mechanical Engineering degree. Held at Wisma Mca, my parents were there as well.

Didn't bring much emotional feelings to me, was just another thing that I had to do, and most importantly, I've already passed that moment's feeling. For goodness sake, it was already 6 months since I graduated. =.=

That's a few of my jimuis and my parents in the photo. =)

Libresse is the next IN thing!

2011-03-29T08:46:00.000+08:00

OMG! Guys check this out!

www.libresse.com.my

I got this website link the other day from a friend and she was telling me how cool this viral campaign was. I was a bit sceptical at first, as you know, I hate watching videos online coz it always seems lame. But since my friend was so hyped up about it, why not?

So I went to work really early one day and decided to check out this link that my friend sent me.

“Hmmm… So it’s a viral campaign for Libresse. Let’s see what now…”

In case you guys dunno (which I highly doubt so), Libresse is a brand for sanitary pad and panty liners for ladies. One thing special about them is that they introduced a pad that is designed anatomically to fit your body. Now guys, don’t go “Euww, nothing to do with me.”, coz that’s bullshit. If your gf or wife ain’t happy during that one week of the month, your life isn’t gonna be any better. So read on with this post!

As a female myself, who is blessed with the experience of bleeding every month, I know that absorption is nothing if it doesn’t fit. So Libresse is special because they now have SecureFit design and Deep Flow Channel (DFC). The name explains it all.

Back to the viral campaign… Read on.

Watch your FAVOURITE CELEBRITIES TRY NEW THINGS and DECIDE WHAT THEY DO NEXT!

“Yuna it is then. I like her voice.”

*Watching the video…*

Halfway through the video there’s this pop up window asking me to give my hand phone number to Yuna so that she can call me now. I actually felt very reluctant to fill it up the question they were asking due to all the spams I have been receiving, but what the heck, I’m already halfway through!

*Fill up the questions*

SURPRISE!!!

OMG OMGOMG! You wouldn’t believe it until you try it! Serious, in a way I’m fascinated! LOL! You guys should try this and let me know what you think! I’m gonna give a slight hint on how this whole viral campaign is different from the ordinary. Well, we’ve all been to a 3D movie right? 3D movie is visual effects; this is almost like a physical and visual cum sound system effect all together. You’re gonna be able to talk on the phone with the celebrity you chose, anytime of the day! It’s a whole new experience for me. LOL! Viral campaigns now no longer go one way, but both ways, advertisers and the audience. Amazing!

Here’s the link again, www.libresse.com.my

CLICK IT NOW!!!

*p/s: I’m a big fan of panty liners and they never come cheap! (Nothing does anymore!)

I’m like an adventurer in search of the best panty liners around, and I definitely don’t mind trying out Libresse’s new product! You guys should too!

Best diet plan ever

2011-03-25T09:09:00.000+08:00

Well here's something new in my life. I've been eating like crazy for the past few days. Even got an sms that said "Please don't snack.". Colleagues are even asking if I'm pregnant, which I am absolutely NOT!

Guess what girls? I was browsing around youtube in the office yesterday coz my colleague sitting next to me was using my phone, so I couldn't call my clients.

So anyway, I watched this trailer of a movie which I've heard of from my sister. It's called the Human Centipede.

Instantly after going through 3/4 of the video, I had this overwhelming feeling that I needed to puke. =.=

Couldn't even think bout food since I watched the video. It really works. I still feel like puking. You guys should definitely look up this video on youtube.

Haha! Random, but at least I'm blogging.

Im back...

2011-03-22T09:10:00.001+08:00

Haha I know, lame blog post title.

It's been such a long time since I dropped by my own blog. When I finally do, I noticed that all the images on my blog hosted by imageshack does not show. Prompting me to register my domain with them etc. Done that like 1 week ago yet still no news. !@#$%^&*

So anyway, I recived tons of emails from my readers asking where am I, how am I etc. Thanks for all your concerns and sorry I didn't reply any of you. Was really busy with life, especially with work. Will elaborate more on work in the next post, trust me, I have lots to complaint. XD

So I had my convocation at Wisma MCA on the previous Sunday, didn't make a big hoohah out of it, only invited my parents and the girls. Will share more on that too in the next few post.

Now I only hope I have the time to update the next few posts.

*crosses finger*

Young and Lost

2011-02-01T15:29:00.004+08:00

Feeling a bit lost lately. Hence the lack of updates. Heck, I don't even have anything in my draft that I can publish.

Someone told me last week that "You're still so young, you've not realized what path you want to take in life, and you don't know what you really want just yet. Take it slow, take it easy, you'll learn as time pass.".

Gonna take a break from blogging for a short period of time due to CNY and also the lack of inspiration to blog. But I'll be back, hopefully. LOL.

Happy Chinese New Year everyone and Gong Xi Fa Cai!!! =)

Bumped into my Ex after 3-4 years!

2011-01-27T14:12:00.001+08:00

This is just a vain photo of myself and is not in however way related to the content of this post. XD

Went shopping in Times Square last Saturday. Mom was there with me but we went separate ways coz I had to cover the whole Times Square in less than 2 hours time and it'd be impossible if I had my mom tagging along with me. She has the shortest attention span any person can have, no way she could stay focus to shop. =.="

So as I was walking by myself, rushing to head to Starbucks and get my all time favourtie Java Chip and meet my mom to head home, I saw a familiar face walking towards me.

I didn't have my glasses on you see, and I don't wear contact lenses. So a person have to be about 2-3 arms length away from me before I can really see his/her face. When I finally realized who it was, I was surprised/shocked/stunned, but in a good way. XD

It was my 2nd ex bf, the guy whom I dated 3-4 years ago when I was 19. We've not met since the break up and we're not on each other's Facebook, so it's safe to say we've not met for the past 3-4 years.

He looked at me and then looked away. I thought he didn't see me so I decided to call out his name. He answered when I called him, and he was surprised/shocked/stunned, in a confused way. LOL.

His gf was right next to him, and I didn't wanna say much, thinking it might cause some sort of problem, who knows right...? So his reaction was "eh?!", and I went "hi... ok la... bye bye..." with a smile and walked off, not looking back.

He looked really confused as if he didn't know how to react. Up until now I'm not even sure if he recognizes me or he's still wondering who was the girl who said hi to him in Times Square. I don't know. XD Well the weight loss is definitely a good reason for anyone to not recognize me anymore. So I don't blame him. XD

Back in the years when the relationship just ended, I've always imagined what I would do if I were to bump into him on the street. I came up with a plan that if that were to happen, I would go to any guy nearby and hold his hand, pretending that it was my bf. Haha! I'm glad I didn't have to do things like that last Saturday.

Bread Basket

2011-01-25T10:58:00.001+08:00

I'm not sure if you guys have heard of Bread Basket, but it's a bakery shop located at Bangsar South, which is the area that I'm working in currently.

For the past week I've been visiting Bread Basket for breakfast, sometime even lunch.

Felt really difficult to choose a something from Bread Basket as it's been a long time since I've had bread. Finally decided to have something called the Firecracker Sausage, and I instantly fell in love with it.

FireCracker Sausage - RM4.10

The sausage is spicy and juicy, especially when it's fresh from the oven. The dough around it was rich in butter, which was super crunchy as well. The FireCracker Sausage was instantly my favourite and I've been having it everyday for breakfast now. =p

One day as I was siting down having my usual breakfast while looking at the view outside Bread Basket, the owner of Bread Basket, Sven, walked to me and gave me a lil box as appreciation for supporting Bread Basket.

In the lil box was a Bread Basket mug. ^^

Cute isn't it? My colleagues are all so envious! XD

Anyway, feel free to visit Bread Basket's website, and also be a fan of their Facebook page! =) If you ever drop by Bangsar South, remember to drop by Bread Basket ok? Or maybe call me up for lunch. =p

This is me, with my very contented look.

Oh btw, I'd like to think Bread Basket sells pastries, not bread. So I'm eating pastries, not bread. *self denial*

Time for drinks!

2011-01-23T12:16:00.002+08:00

Lately it's been very hard to get the girls out for drinks. I've tried planning it once but it failed with multiple excuses given by a few of them. Then Yuki tried planning it, and it failed again due to the same reason, excuses. Then I tried planning again in hope that things would be different, but it ended up in vain. Then Moon tried to plan again, and I was very doubtful about it, and guess what? It failed again too, coz of excuses.

I've just had enough of all these excuses. So I've edi told myself never to plan anything from now on. If they wanna go out for drinks or whatever, they can do the planning and just text me upon confirmation.

Went for dinner few days ago after work. Had dinner at Monte's at Bangsar Village then adjourned to WIP for drinks later.

Was feeling really tired that day, haven't got use to the lack of sleep. XD

Had something light that night, Strong Bow.

Suddenly I feel the craving for beer.

The thing is, I can have anyone to accompany me for beer but I don't want it to be just anyone. It just doesn't feel right that friends don't make time for each other anymore, and give excuses such as they're lazy to go out, or they've no money when they hardly even go out in the first place. So enlighten me please, and tell me how to not be upset about all these failed plans and last minute cancellations.

Cupcakes are lovely

2011-01-21T23:30:00.009+08:00

I've never really blogged bout this before, but it happened 3 months ago.

3 months ago, a speeding car pulled over my front gate.

The engine was really loud and it felt as if the car was moving at high velocity.

Then a mysterious guy in a pair of cool shades, wearing a dark long sleeve shirt with a pair of jeans stepped down the car.

In his hands held a silver box, glowing under the ray of sun.

There wasn't much expression on his face, he was really cool.

Nervous as I was, I walked towards the front gate bare footed.

He passed the silver box to me, and told me to be careful with it.

In the silver box, were something that was really sweet.

12 sweet lil things to be exact.

Yes, in the silver box, were 12 mini cupcakes that he had baked for me the day before.

The ones that he told me about in the text messages he typed while his hands were covered in flour

Excitedly, I quickly carried the box back into the house.

As I was walking back in to the house, he told me to take 1 out for tasting.

He waited outside in his car at my front gate while I struggle to keep the silver box out of Brownie's reach.

Quickly took photos of the 12 mini cupcakes and hurriedly put them into the fridge.

Took 1 cupcake out from the silver box and joined him back in the car.

The yellow cupcake was the one I chose, because the color looked so happy.

Was so shy and nervous, as it was only the 3rd time we've met.

A photo he offered to take of me, though I was worried it may not turn out pretty.

A sweet memory, all saved into one photo, was the day it all begin to change.

Cupcakes are lovely, even if they're Chocolate Mint flavoured. =p

I ♥ You~

No time to blog!

2011-01-21T00:06:00.001+08:00

Gosh it feels like I don't have any time to blog anymore!!!

Even if I'm in the office, I don't feel like blogging and I dunno why. Feeling kinda sleep deprived lately. Haha! Anyway, I have a few random blog posts to write about but I've yet to transfer the photos into my laptop, so I guess that'll just have to wait till the weekend. Hopefully I get to come up with some interesting posts rather than the usual rants. =/

Happy Friday everyone! =)

No longer at home

2011-01-19T09:53:00.000+08:00

Since I ended my degree life, I've been pretty much at home, or out everyday until late night. I was leading the "siu nai nai" lifestyle according to my mom.

One day I decided to wake up super early in the morning and look around for job.

This is me barely awake.

Anyway, I'm no longer as lifeless as I used to be although I wish I still am. Currently I'm not working in an engineering field related company, and for this year, I won't be looking at jobs in that field either.

I'm looking for jobs in other field to gain some experience, also coz I'm not interested in engineering field. But if things doesn't go well by the end of the year, ya I'll go back to working in engineering field with the help of my dad's recommendation.

Can't tell you which company I'm working at right now, but I'm still keeping my options open. So if you think you have a job that would suit me or that I might be interested, do email me at junjunriko@gmail.com =)

Btw, there are a few vacancies in my current company, email me if you're interested.

Marketing Manager
Designer

Awwww... Brownie!

2011-01-18T09:13:00.000+08:00

Brownie's being very cute lately... Everytime I look at her I feel so geram. How could she be so cute??!!!

Brownie sleeping on the couch.

Like baby only...

Brownie looking out at the rain with her white blanky.

That's her look when she hears someone walking near our house.

Adorable right? Too cute. XD

The thing about flowers

2011-01-16T19:50:00.000+08:00

Something for you to ponder upon until my next post. XD

Spoon Frozen Yogurt & Smoothie

2011-01-15T00:06:00.000+08:00

Went to Mid Valley last weekend. Wasn't really in a good mood plus my tummy was kinda upset but it wasn't the kind that going to the toilet would solve. I guess it was just air.

Bought tickets to the movie Paranormal Activity Part 2, even though I've never watched Part 1. LOL. Had so much trouble deciding what to what to eat coz my appetite wasn't that great that day. Decided to drop by Fong Lye Restaurant at The Gardens coz it's been such a long time since I've been there. Never really like the place but I still dunno why everyone queues up damn long for the food there. o.O

It was still early by the time we got there so there were plenty of seats and we didn't have to wait. If we needed to wait I wouldn't have gone there definitely coz I just find it ridiculous that I have to wait sooooooo damn long for the food there especially when I don't find that it's anything special.

Oolong Passion Fruit Tea and Orange Yogurt - RM7.30 each

Taking sweet drinks during meal! I've never done that for such a long time since the whole weight lost thing.

Black Pepper Beef Rice Set - RM 28.80

Dry Udon Beef Set Meal - RM 19.80

Caught candid. LOL.

Anyway, the movie was kinda creepy for me coz I just don't deal well with ghost movies. XD And throughout the whole movie I was very very worried for the dog coz she reminds me of Brownie. =p

Dropped by the new yogurt dessert place next to Chilis, it's called Spoon. Spoon's yogurt is a mixture of fresh non fat yogurt with live cultures and skimmed milk, resulting in a 100% natural, 99.95% fat free and low in calories If you're interested to know more, you could always visit their Facebook page.

It's easy to miss if you're not concentrating, so CONCENTRATE!

Original Yogurt with Brownie Bits, Honey Granola and Mango toppings.

Total Damage - RM 15.37

The toppings that I had were one of the few which were more on the pricey side. They had plenty of other toppings which is not as costly. But one thing is for sure, I like their yogurt. They tasted like how real yogurt should taste like, instead of just sugar mixed with some artificial I-dunno-what. The next time I have Spoon's yogurt, I'm gonna just have the plain original yogurt without any toppings. =p In my opinion, it tasted better than Tutti Frutti anytime. So do give it a try and let me know what do you think of it.

Btw, I saw 4 teenage boys about 13-16 having Spoon's yogurt! Not to stereotype or be sexist, but isn't it odd that boys have desserts? LOL.

Things on my list

2011-01-13T23:17:00.000+08:00

I started the year with quite many things on my list. I've never really done any of them since I'm queen of procrastination.

Oopss, typo on #3. XD

But I'm going for an interview on Friday (which is today if you're reading this on Friday), and if things work out fine, I should be able to start on Monday. *crosses finger* Oh yeah, it's suppose to be a secret, but I'm also eying on another job but that'll have to wait and see how things go.

Soon I'll be able to strike #6 off my list. My problem now is #1. What should I do with my hair? Hmmm...

Future of Success Event

2011-01-12T18:02:00.002+08:00

Today we take some time off from the normal blog post of mine and talk about something more meaningful than self shot photos of myself.

Do you remember what it was like being at the age where you have to think about your future? Which course to take? What to study? What line to venture in as we go into adulthood? Feeling unsure about ourselves?

Well honestly, I remembered mine very clearly. I remembered graduating secondary school with top results but with no direction. I knew I had what it takes, but I didn't know where to go. I remembered suggesting a possible career for myself to my parents, got shot down immediately, quote "You are too good for that.". Being unsure about what I really wanted and unsure about what each field of work meant, my parents took the lead and made the decisions for me.

Up until today, I still regret letting my parents decide on my behalf, but what was I suppose to do? I didn't know any better and I certainly didn't know what I wanted back then. It only seem like the next best thing to do, to let my parents decide. I always felt that if I had a lil inspiration about my future back then, things would turn out differently for me right now.

Despite going through a 4-years degree course in Mechanical Engineering and already owning a degree now, I'm still feeling lost. I don't know what I want from life, and right now, it feels as though I'm stuck. That is why I agreed to help a friend write about this upcoming event. To prevent other youths from turning out to be exactly like me - lost at the age of 23. WTF.

The Future of Success is a seminar event aimed at providing inspiration to youths via the sharing of true stories by various national icons such as:

Olympians (Khoo Cai Lin, Azlan Iskandar, Che Chew Chan, etc)
Asian Youth Ambassador Award winners
Ms. Amber Chia (International supermodel)
Phat Fabes (celebrity, TV host, radio Announcer)
and more.

The event was organized with the purpose of enlightening the minds of its youth attendees, primarily aged between 15-18 years old, via sharing sessions by our country’s very own successful personalities and celebrities. They've edi done motivational and inspirational talks to more than 50 high schools last year. The organizers, YouthWorld Developments Sdn.Bhd. made this exclusive event free for all youths!

Below is a brief outline of the event:

23 January, 2011

Main Hall, Sunway University College

10.30am – 5.30pm

1,000 youths

For more info, check out their Facebook page.

So if you have any siblings/cousins/friends who falls into the age category, why not bring them there for some exposure? If you yourself fall into the category, you should definitely head there if you're still feeling unsure. After all, there's no harm in dropping by. =) At least, I wish I had the opportunity to get this kind of exposure back then.

Potluck Party at Crown Regency

2011-01-11T08:02:00.002+08:00

It was last month that the girls and I decided to have a small lil potluck party together. So we decided to have it in a serviced apartment, and Crown Regency was it.

While checking in. Camwhore with my Samsung Jet first. =p

The place was really big and nice. Loved the big bed in the bedroom and even the living room was comfy. They had a radio and a very nice sound system to add. =p Definitely worth the money. Sorry no photos of the place coz I didn't have my digicam with me that day, but you could check out their gallery in their website though.

Tamy and Daniel joined us right after we checked in. They were in charge of mashed potatoes and french fries with some fish ball snacks.

Don and I. =)

Don set up his Nintendo Wii for us and being such a noob in technology, it was my first time playing the Wii. XD I got so nervous while playing the game my cold sweat soaked the controller totally. XD

Taken using the Samsung Galaxy Tab with one of its application. =)

Trying hard not to crash my car while driving. WTF. XDXD

So as time passed the rest of the gang started turning up one by one. We had lotsa food that night including roasted duck, black pepper chicken slices, rojak, acar-acar, fried rice and blueberry cheesecake. =) Weird thing was, we manage to finish up all the food!!! XDXD

Right before dining in!

After dinner everyone sat down in the living room, blasted the music out loud and started our lil drinking game. Don got this drinking board game which I pretty much suck at playing. I kept landing on "double shots", "take a single shot", and "truth or dare". T____T Oddly enough, even though I'm such a lousy drinker, I didn't get tipsy at all. XD

The drinking board game designed like snake and ladder. =p

Throughout the entire night Yuki kept whacking the roasted duck. I just don't get it. She eats damn alot but still her figure is so slim. Life is unfair.

Yuki and I posing with a roasted duck drumstick, it belongs to Moon btw. XD

Anyway, some of the girls got really sleepy and ended up falling asleep on the bed. So a few of us was at the living room playing the Wii when I just couldn't take it and dozed off. Next thing I knew, I was awakened by the sound of Daniel and Tamy washing the dishes. XDXD

Group photo. =)

Had lotsa fun that night but still I wish there were more food. I just can't stop eating! XD

Thanks everyone!

2011-01-10T13:42:00.001+08:00

Thanks to everyone who left a comment in my previous blog post and also thanks to each and every one of you that wrote in long emails giving me encouragement. I really appreciate them very much.

For the mean time I'll still update my blog like usual until I finally decided to give up. But that idea may disappear over the time, so I really don't know what's my decision yet.

Let it snow~ Let it snow~ Let it snow~

Wish it was still Christmas, things would be more jolly. =)

Happy 2011

2011-01-08T10:34:00.000+08:00

It's been a week since we entered 2011. So far so good, since nothing is happening around me. For some reason, I'm not really looking forward to 2011. In a way I have this feeling that things would not go as planned and there'll be a lot of unhappiness in this year. Or is it just me being pessimistic again? =.=

I realize that this blog has been with me for almost 3 years. I have readers who still read my blog up til today, and some already moved on to a better blog, and of coz, not to mention the bunch of haters and anonymous commentors.

As much as I love writing about my personal life in my blog like it's a story, I realize some people prefer that I don't. I used to express myself alot even about my personal life on my blog, but it ended up in me getting alot of hate comments and real life acquaintances hating me after reading my blog (which up until today is still an unsolved mystery to me). Then to avoid all these I gradually changed my style of blogging and kept my personal stuff out, but that didn't work out as well. I received emails, and messages on msn from the readers telling me that I don't write as good, or my blog is getting boring. They request for me to share more and blog like how I used to, but how is that even possible? I don't know.

Coz of what people read from my blog, I've been called a diva, an attention seeker, or even a bitch whenever I express myself genuinely on the blog. Ok, I have to explain this first. Everyone is an attention seeker in some ways, or else they wouldn't be on Facebook, or taking photos, and needless to say, writing in a blog with their real identity. Diva - A person who considers herself much more important than others, has high expectations of others and becomes angry when their standards or demands are not met. Ok at first I wanted to explain how I'm not a Diva, but looking at the definition, I couldn't agree more. I am a Diva. I have certain expectations towards others and standard sets for myself and I would very much appreciate it if they were met. One question though, doesn't everyone? As for a bitch, the word itself carries tons of definition, but in some way, yes I agree, I act like a bitch, but compared to others out there, I would say I'm merely an infant in bitching.

Back to the topic, so when I express myself on my blog, I get slanted with hate comments. But when I blog bout generic stuff like pictures of food that I have on outings, I don't get hate comments. What does this mean? Am I not still the same person behind this blog but in different writing styles? I know it's hard to not judge a person based on what they portray themselves on the blog, because people are most likely to be what they write. You can fake the way you act in real life, but you can't fake the way you write. But sometimes I just wish people would stop picking on everything I have to say and just for once put yourself in my shoes and see where I'm coming from when I'm writing about certain things.

I have people commenting telling me what to write and what I shouldn't write and that gets me really frustrated. Sometimes the comments are constructive but sometimes it's just plain mean. I feel like I'm literally being judged based on every post that I write on my blog, and it's getting really tiring for me. I put effort in keeping the blog organized with photos and proper writing grammar. Compared to most bloggers out there I would say my blog is by far if not at least better. Yet I'm still being slanted with hate comments which I seriously hate alot coz they often come with vulgarities and insulting my parents (goodness know how are things even related to one another).

Because of this blog, I've had people saying that I got dumped by my ex coz I was scamming his money when in actual fact, I was more of the victim than anyone else could possibly be. Because of this blog I have to put up with many more mean things that people say about me when in actual fact, it's not true at all. Why the heck do I continue to subject myself to these constant remarks and insults, I have no idea.

So far I've been complaining bout the bad things that happens coz of my blog, but I should also take into consideration the good things that came along with it. I've had readers sending me long emails sharing that they are inspired by me, or that my writing have helped them solve some problems in their personal life, or have helped them to look at things in a different perspective, some even emailed me to ask for opinions and solutions to their problems. These are the emails that I appreciate alot and along with the small side earnings I'm generating from my blog, these are the reasons I continue to write despite all the insults and false accusations towards me.

But now that is 2011 I've decided to change things. The side earnings are good to have, but I can do without. I'm seriously thinking of quitting this blog within this year. www.junjunriko.com wouldn't be deleted though, I'd still like to keep the memories I've shared in this blog. I'd probably start writing in another blog, but under an anonymous identity so lifeless people would just stop using what I write against my personal life.

It gets really tiring when shitty things happen over and over again knowingly that they are all unnecessary. I'm currently in need of encouragement and enlightenment to help me look at this problem in a different perspective. Coz right now, I don't think it's worth it at all. Putting myself out there to be slanted with horrible remarks when I've got nothing to gain. It's just one of those moments where I feel like digging a hole and just hide in it.

Tiger year is ending soon with the celebration of Chinese New Year next month, so Happy New Year everyone! =) It's the time for new beginnings.

7ASTE Event

2011-01-07T14:05:00.000+08:00

I attended the 7ASTE event which happened few weeks back at PJ Trade Centre, Hex & Mayfair. The theme was - NEW YORK!

Hardly remember the stuff that happened that night so it's impossible to blog in details hence more pictures, less words. Plus I didn't have my digicam with me that night, so photos are all credited to others who tagged me on Facebook. Thank goodness for Facebook. LOL.

Went there with Don.

Had a table near the stage so all the performances that night was right in front of my eyes.

Pics with Sean Lee.

Some of the people at the table.

This is a funny pic. LOL.

Anyway, I think I'm growing older or something like that. Didn't quite enjoy myself that night. Was sitting on a stool at the table and there was these few girls who kept bumping into me with their drinks, luckily none spilled on me. I guess it's one of the reason why I dislike crowded places. I have no idea why people can't stop bumping into me. =.=

Then to make things worse, someone spilled drinks on me that night. Got my dress wet and I had to clean it up at the loo. It was really a frustrating night for me. Totally hate the fact that drinks were spilled on me even though that person already apologized, but how is "sorry" gonna make anything better? *dulan*

Oh when I was about to leave coz someone spilled drinks on my dress and had totally ruined my mood that night, some girls were dancing on the stage. Horrific scene since they're all in skimpy dresses, melted make up, alcohol influenced and one of them even had a bra stripe crisis (on stage too)!!! *no eyes see*

Last pic of the post to end all my rants.

Stop staring!

2011-01-05T14:06:00.000+08:00

The other day I was at Mid Valley for the movie Meet the Parents : Little Fockers. So after the movie Don and I went to the loo.

As I was washing my hands at the basin, there was this girl standing next to me. I'm gonna give this girl a very generic name for this post, she'll be named Mary.

It was just a coincidence that I had a glance of Mary through the mirror. It was just a quick glance so I couldn't really describe much bout her appearance. Mary was just another girl, but I think she was a burn victim coz of how the way her skin looked. When the glance happened, Mary was washing off some pus from her face.

I didn't bother to look at Mary even longer, it was just from that 1 second glance that I had of her which concluded the things I said in the above paragraph.

I have this thing whereby I don't like giving people with special circumstances special treatment. They are normal human beings only with a greater challenge in life. Why should we treat them any how different from others? Plus, they prefer if we treat them normal, because they are after all, normal people!

So I left the toilet and was waiting for Don outside. Then Mary came out soon after. There was this huge bunch of people standing right outside of the men's loo and they all stared at Mary. They stared at her in total silence the entire time she was in their sight.

Mary had a male partner with her that was waiting outside the loo. I wasn't sure if it was her brother or her boyfriend though. So anyway, as Mary walked passed me, her back was facing the big bunch of people outside the men's loo. Still, their eyes were still on her. I am totally clueless what is it they can see from just the back of Mary. From the back she's just exactly like any girl on the street, yet they are still staring!

Through out the entire time, my eyes were on the big bunch of people outside the men's loo. Not on Mary. I just couldn't understand what is it that those people were looking at.

Then as Mary was about to leave the corridor and out of their sight once and for all, a couple of Malay girls walked pass Mary. I could see the expression on the 2 Malay girls face when Mary walked pass them. It was as though they saw something freaking special or cool. One of them even said to the other, "Whoah... Bernanah!", in a way people would say "Whoah... Cool T shirt!". WTF.

I was so disgusted by the way the 2 Malay girls reacted. I have zero respect for them. It's bad enough that you don't feel sorry or considerate for Mary, but to make a remark like that behind her back, it just shows how low your character is.

I understand that sometimes people are curious, they look not because they want to stare, but because they want to know more, they want to know what happened.

But curiosity is one thing, being considerate is another. If you ask me, ya, I am very curious about Mary. I want to know her story, I want to know how she feels, I want to know alot more. But I choose not to stare at her. Would staring at her solve all my curiosity? No. But it would make her feel even less about herself, which is totally the last thing I would want to do.

So I am curious, I'll just ponder about Mary in my mind. There's no need for me to look at her or stare at her, it's pointless and rude. Imagine if you had an allergy reaction to some skin care product and you had tons of pimples on your face. The pimples will be gone in 2 weeks but when you go out for dinner or yumcha, people stares at your face. How do you feel? You're just another normal human being but people are staring. Ask yourself again, how do you feel when people are staring at you when something happened out of your control? How do you feel when people are staring at you when all you want is to blend in and be normal?

On the other hand, it's a total different thing to stare at people who dress weirdly like lala people or lolitas. They're dressed like that in the first place to be noticed, so you have every right to stare at them and point at them. Especially people with huge flowers on their head when they go clubbing on KL. I just cannot understand fashion. No PUN intended.

Falling in love with Starbucks

2011-01-03T01:27:00.000+08:00

I've always loved Starbucks but the price always turns me off. So I hardly have them. Plus I've never found any caffeine lover to share my passion for Starbucks. XD

Not until a few months ago that I finally found one. And to top things, I just ended my diet. So I can have all the sweets I want from Starbucks and not worry bout anything! =)

The theme for the day was hot pink (even thought the term hot pink isn't really an actual color).

Had my favorite Java chip Frappuccino and Chocolate Tuxedo. Yums!

This is the face of a very contented girl. XD

It feels like forever since I last went to Starbucks even though it's only been less than 24 hours. OMG.

Channel X Music Personality App

2010-12-31T02:48:00.000+08:00

I recently went and browse around the Channel X website whereby people can actually download ringtones, wallpapers, Call Me Tones, screensavers, themes, games and much more.

Then as I was browsing around the website I found something even cooler. There's this new application that is called the Music Personality app.

It's a very simple application. Here's how it work.

So I decided to take the test and here's the result I got!

I'm a Pop Icon!

"Roll out the red carpets! The Pop Icon has arrived. Pop Icon command attention wherever they go. People are drawn to you and look to you to lead the crowd. Good thing, you know how to keep ahead of the trends in everything!"

The test can be taken over and over again or you could even take the test for a friend. Best of all, the results can be shared to walls and news feeds on Facebook. I wonder what personality will my friends be matched to?

Do check out the application in the Xpax Facebook page. For those of you in my Facebook, remember to share your results just so I'll know what personality you have! =p

*p/s: It's gonna be new year soon, time to get yourself some cool new ringtones and screensavers. So head on to Channel X and update yourself ASAP!

Whatever happened to waves and hand shakes?

2010-12-29T14:54:00.000+08:00

Whatever happened to waves and hand shakes? Why are people nowadays giving hugs when they say hello and goodbye? As far as I could remember, I could've swore neither my parents or the teachers in school taught us to give hugs when we say hello or goodbye to friends.

This could only be explained in a few ways. It's either coz of the influence of tv, girls/guys getting horny, or these people just came back from overseas. Like those people who speak like typical Malaysians and after a few months or years overseas they suddenly talk with an accent, a weird one to add. Why do you change yourself to follow what other country are doing? I seriously don't get it.

I still don't see what the heck is wrong with waves and handshakes. Why the hugs???!

I hate it when people give me hugs when they wanna say hello or goodbye. Seriously, I freaking hate it whether it's girls or guys giving them to me.

I'm dressed proper, with my own perfume, and when another girl gives me a hug, automatically somehow her perfume will stain on me and I'll smell weird.

*p/s: I don't want to smell like you, or else I would've bought your perfume.

Another thing is, when the hell did I get so freaking close to you until you need to give me a hug? My mom don't give me a hug, neither does my jimuis of 10 years. We give a slap on the back and probably joke around and that's it. Why do you need to give me a hug?!

And when it's a guy giving me a hug, sorry la, my first instant thought is that I'm being molested and in the back of my mind I'm finding ways to cut short the hug even though it'll probably only last a few seconds in the first place. And then I'd most probably avoid the fella the next time I see him.

Now that's for me. But when it comes to girls hugging my bf, I get super irritated. Trust me when I say I could splash a glass of drink onto her face when she hugs my bf. Remind me again why the heck would you wanna hug my bf? Don't you have your own bf to hug? And HELLO? DUH! You know I'm the gf and I'm right in front of you yet you still freaking put your arms around my bf ar? WTF man.

I don't care if you grew up overseas or you spent a few months or years overseas doing some degree or diploma, and I care even less if you're the kind that lets thousands of guys hug you, but please stay away from my bf. Use your hands to wave instead.

If everyone's single, fine, hug all you want, orgy and I couldn't even care less. But when the guy's in a relationship, come on la, common sense to stay away from him, No? Just like how a guy would stay away from a girl when she's in a relationship. Not to mention when the freaking bf is right next to her. You tell me la as a guy, would you go hug another girl who's bf is right beside her? Doesn't make sense right? So why do girls hug the guy when the gf is right beside him? You think girls hit softer than guys ar? Pls la. Don't be a fool.

If I have a guy friend whom I'm super close with and haven't seen him for ages, I wouldn't give him a hug if he's in a relationship. I'd respect him and the gf, that's what friends do. So don't give excuses like "oh he's my close buddy la, nothing one...". Bullshit.

Imagine if you're at some place with your partner, and then some people from the opposite sex come and hug him/her right in front of you, totally disregarding you as their partner. What do you feel like? Even if you're certain that there's nothing going on between them, don't you still feel like WTF?!!!

I just don't get why people nowadays like giving hugs so much. I simply don't get it.

It's either I'm so deprived of the influence of TV or I'm just conservative like that. Maybe I need help. Anyone willing to give free counseling?

2010 Christmas!

Remember your roots

2010-12-19T15:35:00.000+08:00

In life, we should always remember out roots.

We may have come a long way,

met billions of people,

and done thousands of things,

to become who we are today.

But in the end of the day,

we should remember our roots.

Family,

never forget them.

Despite all the toys that were denied,

or the scoldings and beatings you received,

remember your family,

even if you came from a broken one.

Because when you really think about it,

we are what we are today,

because of them.

Friends,

never forget them.

People we met but don't really know,

or people we trust and spend time with,

remember your friends,

especially the ones who connected them to you.

Because when you really think about it,

we are who we are today,

because of them.

Colleagues and bosses,

never forget them.

Despite the gossips about you at work,

and all the hard time you received,

remember your colleagues and bosses,

even if they made your life miserable.

Because when you really think about it,

we are where we are today,

because of them.

Lovers,

never forget them.

The ones who we hurt,

and the ones who hurt us,

remember your lovers,

even if you wish you never knew them.

Because when you really think about it,

we are how we are today,

because of them.

Enemies,

never forget them.

Irregardless of the hatred you share,

and the repetitive thoughts of destroying them,

never forget them,

especially the ones who give you the most hell.

Because when you really think about it,

we are why we are today,

because of them.

Sometimes in life,

we go through it thinking,

we have everything we have today,

because we worked hard for it,

and that it's the fruit of our own effort.

True, but not entirely.

Because at the end of the day,

we owe everything we have today,

to everyone we crossed path with in our life,

whether we choose to admit it or not.

It's Christmas soon!

2010-12-18T03:39:00.000+08:00

Pavilion has very nice Christmas deco this year. Manage to take some photos with the deco last month when it was just new.

Decided to post the pics up now since it's only 1 week away from Christmas!!!

Time really flies.

Have you gotten your loved ones their Christmas gifts? What did you get? Do share with me... Coz I've always been clueless as to what to get for people for Christmas! XDXD

Winter collection from Zara

2010-12-15T14:52:00.000+08:00

This is a post that was due long time ago WTF. I seldom have the time to blog nowadays, trust me, I really wanna sit down and write something good, but I'm too busy going out everyday.

Anyway, I'm still in love with the winter collection from ZARA, not sure if they're still having them right now, coz for some reason fashion changes faster than seasons.

This look way too much but still look so nice. XD

This is my favorite.

Was so tempted to buy this piece but I've really got no chance to wear this in Malaysia. Heck, even girls who go Genting Highlands nowadays wear shorts and spaghetti strap!!!

How I wish Malaysia would have snow, even if it's only for one week per year.

T_____T

Samsung Galaxy Tab

2010-12-13T13:05:00.000+08:00

Just got back from a weekend getaway party with the girls yesterday. Had potluck and played drinking games with Bacardi and Glenmorangie, then had fun with the Nintendo Wii too. It was totally something KL people would do, rent a place at Crown Regency then throw a gathering there. WTF.

Been away from the internet and the social world for just 2 days and it's really relaxing. Turned off my phone as well so I wouldn't be disturbed, and could just have fun with the girls. Would blog bout it soon, after I get the pictures from a friend. XD

Anyway, I'm starting to love the Samsung Galaxy Tab.

At first I thought the tab was kinda weird being in its size, and I don't really see the point of having something like that wherever you go when you can be socializing with real people. I still think that way, but it's good to have something like the Galaxy Tab around to keep in touch with the outside world, or keep you company when others are busy talking bout stuff you're not interested in, and also especially useful when your date is busy talking on the phone about work. XDXD

Bangkok Trip (Day 3)

2010-12-11T00:20:00.006+08:00

3rd day and last day in Bangkok!!! Emo maximum.

Packed all my stuff the night before and woke up quite late that morning. We had an early flight, 12.30pm bkk time. The taxi was suppose to come and get us at 10.30am bkk time.

Headed for breakfast in the hotel, this time it was only Don and I. Cheez and Ven had went for breakfast earlier and by the time we got to the dining place, there were leaving to their room to continue packing. LOL. I was late for breakfast coz I couldn't wake up in time, and Don waited for me. So sweet. =)

My hearty breakfast.

Had 2 bowls of coco crunch with milk too!

Funny looking people. XD

Btw, these are the stuff I got from Bangkok during my trip.

I didn't get much stuff, damn regretting it now. I was being too choosy. I can't help it. Everything was so darn cheap but my mind is programmed to get only things I need or would wear often. But now I'm regretting it so much, I should've just whacked everything!!! The next time I'm there, I'm gonna whack everything back to KL!!!

So we got on the taxi and headed to the airport just in time, and we checked in on time too. But there was some delay in the whole process of us getting on to the plane due to the extreme long queue. So we literally ran all the way to the plane itself. It was such a bloody long run and I felt like I was going to die. I haven't been exercising much, and my legs were so tired and sore from the shopping at Chatuchak market the day before, and still I had to run all the way to the plane! It was a good 20 minutes run the entire journey. FML.

I swore at the time I was so worried that my luggage would be back in KL and I'd miss the flight, in Bangkok without my luggage! WTF. Me and Don ran ahead while Cheez and Ven followed. Damn Don got good stamina, and in a way I felt insulted lor when he kept asking me to run faster. WTF. =.="

Anyway, by the time all 4 of us boarded the plane, it was already 1.10pm bkk time. The plane was suppose to take off at 12.45pm bkk time. WTF!!! The whole plane was waiting for the 4 of us. Paiseh-nya~

*p/s: I was running all the way holding a teddy bear in my arms. WTF.

Me and the teddy, still panting! XD

Had an awesome trip to Bangkok, and I seriously can't wait to go back there soon!!! Gained a good 2kg from the trip which got me very upset, but I'm back to my normal weight now. 50-51kg. =)

^^ Hope you guys enjoyed reading and looking at the photos of all 3 Bangkok trip posts as I did writing them. =)

Bangkok Trip (Day 2)

2010-12-09T17:19:00.003+08:00

Bangkok trip day 2! We were all suppose to head out at 6.30am bkk time and head to breakfast then continue with our long day ahead. But then everyone was so tired we eventually left for breakfast an hour later. LOL.

I was the earliest who got up that day, so while waiting for everyone else to get ready, I had plenty of time to camwhore in the room. XD

Piggy Pout!

This is such a vain shot. LOL.

With no make up, only mascara and BB cream. XD

The teddy from Watson KL. Brought it all the way to Bangkok.

Well for some reason, the guys, both Cheez and Don were the ones that made us late that morning. XD Finally get to go for breakfast, I love having breakfast. I don't get to have them very often so I'm happy whenever I get the chance to go for a breakfast date. ^^

In the elevator going to the buffet breakfast place.

The giant deco in the dining place.

Me all so hyped up bout breakfast! XD

Posing with the background. XD

Yum Yum Yum...

Used timer and the pic turned out blur. XD

This look so wrong. Hahahah!!!

At the balcony of the dining place. =)

So during breakfast, we decided to have our dinner at the Baiyoke Sky Restaurant. It's located on the 76th and the 78th floor of the building and with a great view of the city. Plus we get to have cheaper rates for the buffet dinner. LOL.

While Don was making inquiries for the dinner we camwhored!

Forgotten where did Cheez went during this time. o.O

After Don got all the info we needed bout the restaurant and location, we headed to Baiyoke Sky Hotel to make reservations. Too bad the reservation counter only opens at 9.30am, and the place we wanted to go, Chatuchak market, only opens at 10am. So we had plenty of time to spare, it was only bout 8++am bkk time. o.O

So we took some photos in the building instead. It was kinda fun I must admit. LOL.

The morning view of the city.

Fake hot air balloon. XD

LOL!

Giant mirror spotted!

Tuk Tuk~

Damn weird lor the Tuk Tuk, I'm too tall to drive one.

Old fashion sewing machine, brings back the memories...

Cheez's classic pose and expression! XD

This was interesting.

It was like a fake gazebo with a fake lake and stuff. Cheez wanted to take photos in the gazebo like I did, but then he saw that black and white photo hanging in the center of the gazebo and it freaked him out. So in the end, he didn't dare to take photos with the gazebo. LOL!

I heart Bangkok! Really, I do!

This picture would be perfect if the machine actually had popcorn in it!

Yes, I finally got myself a job. LOL.

Really interesting fruit. O.o

Huge huge huge mirror spotted! XD

It was already 9.40am bkk time yet the reservation counter wasn't open. So we took down the number, and decided to make reservation via phone call later in the afternoon. We then grabbed a Tuk Tuk to Chatuchak market.

Food by the road side.

Well the Tuk Tuk we took kinda pissed me off la. They took us to this jewelry shop and asked us to have a look, in order for them to get free petrol. Then the shop was so freaking small, not even 3 min I can finish looking around lor. Then we exited the shop and got back up the Tuk Tuk. The celaka driver said we were in the shop for less than 15 min so he doesn't wanna send us to Chatuchak edi, instead he dropped us off at the nearest train station, no fees charged of coz. But dammit la coz we wanted to take the taxi there then he bloody come and offered us a ride then now back out on his words again. Celaka betul.

Anyway, here's us struggling to use the machine to buy tickets. XD

Abstracts wtf.

Love this pic. Now I know why tourists always take photos of our LRT. LOL.

Cramped in the train but still can camwhore.

It was only a walking distance from the train station to Chatuchak market, and I was really stunned. It was packed with stalls after stalls selling stuff after stuff! Clothes, shoes, bags, other stuff that I'm not interested in, too many to name, everything at super cheap price!

Sunny day but that didn't stop me from shopping!

Don and I teamed up while Ven and Cheez coupled and we went our own ways. It was hard to shop in fours so we decided to shop in pairs instead. We gave ourselves 7 hours to shop and we were suppose to meet at the train station at 5pm bkk time.

After walking and shopping and buying super many stuff, Don and I were exhausted. We couldn't even feel our legs anymore. But when we looked at the time, it was only 2pm bkk time. LOL. 3 more hours to go! So we decided to take a break and have drinks.

Super nice deco...

Posing with the interesting menu. XD

Candid shot of me but I like it.

Don had Singha Beer and I had very lil of it with lotsa beer hence the diffrence in color. XD

Camwhore! I look damn tired. =.=

While Don was resting and having his drink, I went and look around the nearby stalls. I've been looking for bikini since I lost weight and haven't been able to find any nice one in KL, plus they're always darn expensive. So I saw this stall selling bikinis and I asked how much for one. The lady offered me 450 baht. Damn expensive right? Then there was this other girl (from Malaysia also), and she was also interested in getting a bikini from the same stall. So I made a pack with her. Asked the lady how much if I got 2, and she said 800 baht. So this other girl from Malaysia started bargaining with the lady. She wanted 500 baht for 2 bikinis. The lady of coz didn't wanna give in. I kept my mouth shut the entire time and let her do the bargaining. Guess what, I got myself a bikini for only 250 baht, that's like RM25 only!!! CHEAP!

Anyway we continued walking after that and guess what, I saw this lady arranging sling bags on the floor so I asked her how much for one. And she replied me "All for 100 baht...". WTF I had the shock of my life! Damn cheap! Must buy!!! I got myself 3 from this stall. XD

It was difficult not to get them all! XD

Despite Don repetitively telling me how huge the Chatuchak market was, I couldn't believe it for myself. It was larger than huge ok??!!! WTF we even got lost in it. XD Like I mentioned earlier, we were suppose to meet Ven and Cheez at the train station at 5pm bkk time. We started looking for the way back to the station bout 3.30pm bkk time. And we only manage to reach the station at 4.45pm bkk time. WTF. The walk from the train station to the Chatuchak market only takes bout 10 minutes maximum. We got lost for an entire hour!!! LOL!

Check out the crowd heading to the Chatuchak market despite it was getting late.

All 4 of us were really exhausted and our legs felt as if they were gonna break into half. We took the train then taxi back to our hotel. We wanted to go for a dip in the hotel's swimming pool and we didn't have much time left since we're leaving on an early flight the next day. (Ok la, actually it was just me that insisted the other 3 of them to go for a dip in the swimming pool). XDXD

Went back, took a quick shower, change into bikini and went around rushing the rest of them to get ready for our dip in the swimming pool. It was all very rush coz we had dinner reservation at the Baiyoke Sky Restaurant at 8pm bkk time, and it was already 6.30pm bkk time, we had only 30 minutes to play in the pool then rush back the hotel and get ready for our dinner and night out.

Check out the pool... Nobody except us!

Me looking very tired... =.=

Ok la, the water was freezing cold. It was hard to put up a smile on your face when your body is trembling. LOL. Anyway, no photos of me in my bikini coz I think it's kinda weird to have photos of myself in my bikini on my blog. Don't ask me why, I just think it's weird. (Probably coz whenever I see other female bloggers upload their bikini photos I'd always stare at their photo scanning through their entire figure, WTF.)

We didn't have much time to play in the water, it was too cold anyway. So after taking a few shots of us around the pool, we left back to our hotel to get ready for dinner.

I like this T shirt. Looks nice. =p

Was rushing like mad as soon as I entered the hotel room. We needed to shower, dress up, put on make up and go for dinner. Why dress up? Coz we actually planned to head on to Tower Club at Lebua. It has the most breath taking view up there. =p

Me in my RM10 dress that I bought from Chatuchak market earlier that day.

So this is the view from Baiyoke Sky Restaurant. =)

I was just soooooo hungry at that moment. It was a buffet dinner and we only paid bout less than RM50 per pax coz we had discount. XD Anyway, I was so caught up in taking more food to the table, Don actually got kinda upset at me coz I keep walking around taking food. When I came back to the table, he was so sure I couldn't finish the food I took. =.=

This is me camwhoring while waiting for the rest to come back with their food.

Our first round. 2nd n 3rd round got a lil too messy to be taken pictures of. XD

And FYI, I finished all the food I took for myself including many pieces of cakes!!! Don was surprised, haha, that's why, he shouldn't have underestimated me. I may control on the food I take, but I can eat alot! WTF. Ven and Cheez didn't even finish the food they took lor. XD

After dinner we wanted to head to the Club Tower at Lebua but was kinda worn out. So we suggested to head up to Baiyoke Sky Lounge, but the place was really bad that we didn't felt comfortable in it. LOL. Decided to stick with Plan A, Club Tower at Lebua.

Went back to the hotel and grabbed all the cash that we had on us, coz we were running out of bahts to use.

My full body pic. =p

My feet were hurting from the long hours of working that day at Chatuchak market, and my legs doesn't even feel like they're mine anymore. Yet I still manage to squeeze my oh so swollen feet into those black heels. FML. Bloody uncomfy, but that's the price women pay to look good. XD

While Don was settling the taxi to Lebua with the hotel management, Ven and I camwhored a bit and took some shots of each other. XD

Our rosey cheeks... XD

Our dresses were very similar that night!

Love this pic.

Me and Don, all dressed up.

My feet got really tired so I took them off and chill. XD

Me and Don again. Come to think of it, I never took a single pic with Cheez!!!

So we headed to Lebua by taxi and Cheez actually fell asleep on our way there. WTF. He's like damn exhausted lor... XD

Got to the Club Tower at the view was amazing, It was open aired btw. Didn't manage to get much nice photos of the place so I'm gonna just upload the ones already in Google so you'd roughly get an idea how beautiful the place was.

Nice hor?

People actually have to make reservation for dinner a month before ler!!! o.O

The view that night...

Candid shot while testing the camera settings but I like! XD

Me and Don again.

Well, we didn't manage to take much photos that night at Lebua coz the bar was kinda crowded and we couldn't get the camera settings right. WTF. So you'll just have to go there and see for yourself. But I really do regret not taking more photos at the place that night. T___T

All of us went back to the hotel quite late and we just KO straight away. LOL. Bangkok trip Day 3 post will just be a short one... So stay tuned!

Bangkok Trip (Day 1)

2010-12-06T23:55:00.003+08:00

Yup I'm finally gonna blog bout my trip to Bangkok last weekend. It was just a short 3 days 2 nights trip which I totally regret for not going for a longer period!!! FML. I was missing Bangkok so badly as soon as I touched down in KL. =(

Anyway, my partners in crime for the trip, Don, Cheez and Ven. =)

Didn't manage to get any sleep at all the night before coz I was too excited. It was my first time taking the airplane for the past decade! WTF. Don was suppose to pick me up from my place, and we'll meet Ven and Cheez at the airport as soon as they touch down from Singapore on the first flight that morning! BTW, our flight to Bangkok was at 7.55am, so it was really a rush. =)

Don sorta woke up and then sorta went back to sleep so in a way sorta overslept? So he was late when he arrived my place. Then he drove super fast all the way to the airport. It was kinda scary la... I don't do well in fast cars. XD

Had my very first burger from McD in the past 6 months that morning. Well, not really, it was a Sausage McMuffin with Egg, but I only had one slice of the muffin. It was really sinful when I took the first bite, but gosh do I miss McDonald's!!!

Me while waiting for take off!

Flying with AirAsia btw, got super cheap rates!

Taking off, see I is super excited here! XD

I was so tired coz I didn't sleep at all the night before, so I got knocked out for the entire 2 hours flight. By the time I opened my eyes, I could hear the pilot announcing they've touched down in Bangkok. WTF.

My not so awake look.

With Don, who also has a not so awake look. XD

That's Ven and Cheez at the back. Ven didn't wanna take pictures coz she said she looked terrible that morning. =.=

Nvm lor, I take by myself. Haha! *excited like some country girl*

So we got our luggage and went to the counter to get a cab to go to our hotel. Before the entire trip, Don has been constantly bugging me with the Thai accent and trust me when I say I seriously feel like whacking him at times. So while he was talking to the Thai girl at the counter about the cab rates, I suddenly couldn't resist bursting into laughter. It was so darn difficult I tried to hold it back desperately. But I just couldn't! When Don looked at me, he knew instantly what I was laughing bout. The Thai accent. I really cannot tahan!!! It's hilarious!

Saw this hot pink cab on our way to the hotel and I've decided if I ever should own a car, it has to be in this color!

We were really early by the time we reached our hotel. It was only bout 10++am bkk time, and we couldn't check into the hotel just yet, at least not until 2pm. =( So we left our luggage at the lobby, then went on to walk around looking for food.

Took the Tuk Tuk in Bangkok for the first time in my life that day! =) Maybe it wasn't my first time, could've taken it with my parents like 10 years ago but I couldn't remember a thing, so ya, I'll just take it as my first time in the Tuk Tuk.

Camwhore shots in the Tuk Tuk.

Sorta got kidnapped by the Tuk Tuk driver coz he wanted us to get him some free gas by stopping by at some shop that sells stuff. Quote from him, "U helpu me, I helpu u. U enjoyed, me oso. U happiee, I happiee~ Sam sam~ Thank euwwww veli march~" Seriously I couldn't understand a word when he was talking to Don, they were talking for so long and the driver was talking damn fast. After they were done talking, I looked at Don in a very confused expression and asked, "What did he just say? I don't understand..." =.=

So after that we headed to MBK center for lunch and to look see. Was feeling really exhausted so my appetite wasn't that great. Still, I had space for ice creams!!!

2 scoops nonetheless! XD

Headed back to the hotel and checked in after that. Took a 2 hour nap. Basically I just KO on the bed as soon as I entered the room. Ven and Cheez even had time to freshen up and showered in the mean time. WTF. I assume Don was fast asleep too. LOL.

Changed into my shorts and off we go!!! Platinum Mall and dinner!

Took a golf kinda cart from the hotel out to the main road.

Like damn yeng this cart, I also want one.

There were lotsa stalls selling clothes along the road. Stopped by one shop to look at their jeans.

These are like super cheap lor. Bout RM20 each. WTF.

They even have ZARA brand ok??? RM20 ONLY! XDXD

Continued to walk in Platinum Mall, not much photos coz we were busy shopping. Don and Cheez even got T-shirts at super darn cheap price that is impossible to get in KL. 12 for only RM100. Damn good quality that type sumore.

One thing weird bout the place was that, by the time the guys were done picking out their T-shirts, it was 7.30pm bkk time, and the mall was 80% closed. T____T So early!!! EMO max. Headed to Swensens coz I've been craving for their ice cream since lunch. ^^

Like some cartoon fairytale land. =p

Haha, can't wait for desserts!

After ordering must take some pics with Ven.

With Don.

Took pics of Cheez instead of with him.

Took pics of Ven and Cheez also. XD

I know in a way, my captions for the photos are a bit wuliao la, but I can't help it. I was being wuliao when I took those photos. Anyway, check out my super ice cream mix and match by me!!!

4 scoops with super many toppings!

And I finished it all by myself. Don helped me with I think probably at most 1 scoop only, then he said he wanna keep his stomach space for dinner. =.= Nvm, all the more left for me. Hahaha. It was super super super yummy. How come KL don't have Swensens that specializes in ice creams??!!

I was full and contented with my dessert. That was good enough to be my dinner. But no, the other 3 partner in crime cannot have desserts for dinner, they want actual dinner. =.= So not creative lor they all. LOL. So we headed to some local food stalls nearby, actually not so nearby, quite far away also. XD

It's a type of fish? Ugly ones.

Si ham aka clams. XD

Tom Yum soup.

Veggie.

Ugly fish like the one above, but super yummy with the chili.

Dinner was darn filling. Saw some stray dogs nearby the stalls begging for food. One of them looked so skinny and hungry and weak. Reminds me of Brownie. =( I cannot imagine if one day Brownie is like that on the streets, how will she every survive??? My baby Brownie. *EMO again at that moment while the other 3 busy nomning down food*

Took a very long walk back to the hotel from the dinner place, but the weather was nice and breezy, totally different from KL, which I hate walking around at night.

Crossed this overhead bridge that has maximum Christmas deco. ^^

See that 100 sign?

It's only freaking RM10 for denim shorts!!! WTF. How is that even possible. You know how much Forever21 is selling for one?! I didn't get any from that store but wait til you read my Day 2 post. =p

Delicious @ Dua Residency

2010-12-04T17:37:00.000+08:00

Normally whenever I got to Delicious, it would always be the one along Jalan Tun Razak, simply because it's nearer to my place, and I'm used to it.

This time, I went to the one in Dua Residency due to the KL peak hour jam. Did you know Dua Residency has the most awesome elevator? It has mirrors as walls. *loves* Was really hungry that day so I actually ate alot.

Mashed Potatoes (Not mine obviously - still not taking in potatoes).

Bolognese Spaghetti

It was just so yummy I couldn't believe I finished the whole plate on my own. WTF. The portion is definitely enough for 2 pax of slim girls.Look at the picture above, the portion is almost as big as my head. =.=

Then to make things even more sinful, I had to order desserts. LOL. My day wouldn't be complete without desserts.

Caramel Macadamia Nuts Cheesecake.

I've been told my face lifts up and my eyes glow whenever I'm having desserts. =p

After about 2 hours I had my dinner again, Western cuisine, but no photos. Tell me again I don't eat enough?!

Souled out!

2010-12-03T17:16:00.000+08:00

Went to Souled Out for dinner at Sri Hartamas for dinner probably few weeks ago. It was raining cats and dogs that evening. The wind was so strong Brownie didn't dare to step foot outside the house. LOL.

Anyway, it's been some time since I last visited Souled out, more than half a year.

The menu.

Fajitas - RM16

Tortilla filled with grilled beef strips, guacamole and jalapeno salsa.

This was ok I guess. The ones I did the last time tasted even better. =p And at a cheaper price too. I'm being harsh on the food I know.

Seafood Marinara - RM23

Generous serving of mussels, prawns, squid and fish chunks in a tomato based sauce.

Didn't quite like this. The tomato based sauce tasted like diluted tomato sauce. Not rich and tasty enough for me.

Lamb Chop - RM32

Grilled till perfect doneness. Served with roasted thyme potatoes, sautéed panache vegetables and rosemary sauce.

The lamb chop was rather small in portion. (Yes I notice I always complain the food portion to be small but I was hungry). And there were alot of fats on the lamb. Would anytime trade this for the Southwestern Grilled Lamb from Chili's.

Lava Cake - RM14

Warm moist chocolate cake in praline sauce and cashew nuts, topped with Haagen-Dazs vanilla ice cream.

The Lava Cake was really small wtf. Hahaha. I cannot understand why do people serve desserts in small portion. They should be served in big portion, that's why desserts are sinful!!! WTF. But the moist cake was really sweet and soft, wish they served it with chocolate syrup instead of the ice cream though. I like my desserts VERY sweet! =p

Was very full that night even though I'm complaining alot in the post.

Tell me again I don't eat enough?!

Relationship Dramas

2010-12-02T03:30:00.000+08:00

It's been quite some time since I last blogged about anything worth reading. At least a few months I would say.

Anyhow, today's topic is relationships.

Somehow I don't think people understand what relationships are about. Heck, I'm not even sure if I know. But the thing is, some people act in the way that it's so obviously wrong, yet they still do it thinking it's right.

I don't mind public affection. You know, the kind where you kiss and hug each other in public, not a problem to me at all. In fact, if you are that loving, you should show it to the world. (But don't do it at night at some random park or else you may get caught by the police).

What I don't get is, the arguing in public. It's unavoidable that couples quarrel, but do you really have to put on a show for everyone else that's present? For goodness sake. For example, crying out loud like you cannot control your tears or cursing madly out of anger at an event, then everyone else have to give their attention to you and comfort you, and even try to make your bf/gf to work things out with you?

Calling a break from the relationship in public when you're at a party or at a shopping mall or at an event. Leaving the girl crying and the guy totally missing in action, probably off to somewhere cooling off. How is that logical? Can't you wait until you're home and talk things through properly like normal human beings? Why so emotional and immature nonetheless? Calling off a relationship or walking off in the midst of an argument in public, it's like you don't respect your bf/gf, don't respect yourself, and most importantly, insulting the love you so called claim to have with your other half.

Is it necessary? Do you actually think it's something to be proud of to let everyone know bout your relationship problems? You might as well record your sexual activities with your bf/gf and post it on youtube allowing people to comment on it. Yes, arguments and disagreements between couples is that personal!!!

I don't know about you but when I see couples quarreling and making a fuss in public, I automatically think that they are immature, childish, incapable of understanding love, and purely dramatic. Most importantly, I would think that their love is not genuine. And do you really want a random person to think your love you have with your bf/gf is not genuine? Nobody does.

I still don't get it why some people think that by making a fuss about their relationship problems in public would be anyhow something to be proud of. If I have relationship problems, I would wanna go someplace private where there's only 2 of us and settle it. Then the guy can be as mad as he wants and I can cry all my heart out, or the other way round. XD But to do it in public is just plain drama king/queen. I cannot understand it. Sorry, it's more like, I'm incapable of understanding why do people do things like that.

Btw, announcing in Facebook that you're in a relationship, then single, then in a relationship, then single, then in a relationship over and over again with the same person is also being immature and childish. Can't you freaking make up your mind if you wanna be in a relationship with the person or just break up????!!! Small lil things then break up, you don't even take your relationship seriously and you expect others to do the same? WTF man. If people don't respect or believe in the love you claim to have with your other half, it would be coz of your own actions, you can't blame anyone.

I just don't know how people can think that by publicly showing that you have serious relationship problems is something you can be proud of. Things like that are personal and should be left between you and your other half. Just the TWO of you. Why do you wanna make a show for everyone else to see? It's more likely you want the attention from everyone else, than the attention from your other half.

So grow up for the freaking goodness sake.

Sony NEX-3

2010-11-30T12:03:00.000+08:00

I'm back from Bangkok since Sunday but I haven't really got the time to process the photos and blog bout my trip yet.

Anyway, Bangkok was so much fun especially the shopping. I'm just so in love with shopping!!!

Lately the photos that you see in my blog posts are taken with Sony NEX-3. It's not a new fancy camera, but it takes awesome pictures for a tech noobie like me! Loving all the photos since I don't have to edit much of the lighting or the coloring, except touching up on close up pics coz it's just too darn clear my pores and wrinkles are so obvious!!! WTF!

Will update bout the Bangkok trip as soon as I'm done processing the photos!

*p/s: The camera is not mine, so I don't know much bout the details or the price. You could always google for more info though. =）

Room Eighteen @ Plaza Damas

2010-11-28T15:00:00.000+08:00

Apparently I was kidnapped to Plaza Damas, a place I have never heard or been to, for dimsum. Too bad the restaurant was booked for a wedding dinner, so no yummy dimsum for me.

Headed inside the mall itself, it was small and pretty much nothing to eat. Saw there's this restaurant called the Room Eighteen. I've seen the menu at the outlet at Times Square but the overwhelming price of the food turned me off. So I've never tasted it. Never. XD

Since I got kidnapped, I pretty much have to eat whatever I was fed right? So Room Eighteen it was.

While waiting for the food.

I was really hungry that day so I ordered alot. Then after I ordered, I asked my kidnapper, "What are you gonna order?", and he replied "I'll share with you, don't think you can finish all.". But I intended to finish everything I ordered by myself! @.@

Yam Taro Croquette - RM4.80

World No1 Bun (filling is the same as char siu pao) - RM4.80

3 combination of roll (prawn, char siu n mushroom if not mistaken) - RM10.80

Xiao Long Bao - RM8.80

Ying Yang Siew Mai - RM8.80

To my surprise, the food tasted awesome!!! Definitely worth the money paid. Now I wish I hadn't been so stingy and just paid the money for the food. Then I could've enjoyed these good food way earlier on!

Enjoying myself!

The only let down was when I ordered the desserts.

Sago Honeydew - RM8.80

It tasted nothing like how a sago honeydew should taste like. Sago was still hard, honeydew wasn't sweet, the whole thing lack of sweetness and taste. It was diluted. Like having ice with honeydew fruits. =(

But I would definitely go back for the dim sum. =p

Tell me again I'm not eating enough?!

Coffee Bean and Beef Noodles

2010-11-27T11:21:00.000+08:00

Have you guys tried the blended swirl yogurt from Coffee Bean? If you haven't, you really got to go try em now!

I've always loved yogurt but never really got the chance to actually go try the blended swirl yogurt from Coffee Bean despite seeing the ads numerous times. Well I'm a dessert lover so when I finally could try it at the outlet in Pavillion, I was delighted!

Caramel Affogato - RM9.90

It was simply amazing. Wish the portion was bigger though, I could never have enough of desserts. It is to die for!!!

I love it I love it I love it!!!

Oh btw, tried the food court at Lot10 for the first time few weeks back. I'm never a fan of food courts, and I can't really explain why. I have this phobia of people knocking into me and spilling the food on the tray all over my body. =.=

Tried their Beef Noodles - RM15.90 (I think).

Simply delicious!!!

I kinda like shots of myself while I'm eating. Haha. *like*

Tell me again I don't eat enough?!

Guess where I'll be over the weekend!

2010-11-26T01:10:00.002+08:00

Guess!!!

I've scheduled some blog posts while I'm away, so no worries. =)

*crosses finger that everything goes well*

Happy weekend everyone!

Shout! Awards @ Stadium Bukit Jalil

2010-11-24T03:39:00.028+08:00

Yes I attended the Shout! Awards last Saturday at Stadium Bukit Jalil with VIP passes. =) The parking was awful but we were lucky enough to get a nice slot just in time.

Got there early bout 6.30pm and the stadium was still half empty, or half full whichever you may put it.

Waited desperately until 9pm when the whole event finally started. WTF. It was seriously a long wait, and I was getting frustrated simply because I'm not a patient person. I don't even know why did I bother going so darn on time when I obviously know the event will start late.

Anyway, as time passes, the crowd was filling up the place.

Check out part of the crowd, and that is even before the event started!

Oh btw, the whole event was broadcasted live on 8tv, did you guys catch it on tv? There was this part where the news reporter fom 8tv asked a random crowd which artist was she supporting that night, and the random crowd answered "Miss Nizza", live on 8tv. Excuse me, who is Miss Nizza??? OMG, I cannot understand why young Chinese girls keep embarrassing themselves on live tv. =.=

Back to the event. The lighting and graphics were simply awesome that night. It looked really good with the performances. The pictures I took, well not really me, more like Don took them, but the pictures that I choose to use, are mainly of the lighting and graphics of the stage during performances.

Grand or not?

This was when the supposedly Miss Nizza (Mizz Nina) performed.

Anyway, Don wasn't feeling that well that night so we left around 11.30pm, exactly before Iyaz performed!!! T____T He was the main attraction and we missed it. But oh well, we waited for a freaking long time anyway, it just didn't seem worthwhile.

But overall I did have fun there. Saw many gorgeous ladies as well as celebrities. Kinda make me wonder how come these girls are so drop dead gorgeous. LOL.

More photos of the performances that night, photo credits to here. I edited the photos of coz, I cannot understand why people don't touch up their photos. (no offense intended to anyone).

Opening act.

The hosts.

Awesome vocals.

Damn yeng this pic.

Chili's @ Mid Valley and Harry Potter

2010-11-23T04:41:00.000+08:00

If you've been a blog reader of mine since the beginning, you would know that I'm just a lover of Chili's. There was this period of time where Chili's was actually like my maggie mee, that was how often I had it. It got me really broke and fat though. Haha.

Anyway, my favorite outlet is always the one in Mid Valley. =)

Southwestern Eggrolls - RM14.95

The Southwestern Eggrolls are one one my favorites to have in Chili's. It has that hint of Indian cuisine that I really like, dipped into the avocado sauce, it just sooooooo perfect. LOL.

Southwestern Cobb Salad - RM24.95

This salad is damn filling. It's super huge in size and I'm loving it. So much for so little! I'm gonna order this as my meal the next time I go back there. =p

Fire Grilled Chicken and Portobello - RM32.95

This was ok I guess. LOL. I still prefer the Southwestern Grilled Lamb for my main. =p

Me filling all happy and stuffed after a big meal!

Tell me again I don't eat enough?!

Anyway, I watched the Harry Potter and the Deadly Hallows Part 1 at Signature Gardens on that night itself. The movie was a let down. Too much unnecessary scenes. =( I feel upset coz I was actually looking forward for the movie to be a hit. T____T Hope the Part 2 next year would be great.

Pasta Zanmai and Delicious

2010-11-22T08:04:00.003+08:00

This was weeks ago but I only got to update bout it now. =/

Went to Pasta Zanmai at Mid Valley for my early dinner/late lunch, whichever you prefer.

Hot green tea for me.

Tried their November special, love it much!

Unagi Spaghetti, they're always so generous with the Unagi. =p

Dropped by at Delicious cafe after that. Was my first time in that particular outlet. Was told that the Chocolicious Sundae was to die for, so I simply had to try. Like I said, desserts melt my heart. =p

Was eagerly waiting for the dessert!

I thought I look really tired that day. =(

Oh did I mention, Don was the one who told me the dessert was to die for.

Tada! Chocolicious Sundae with lotsa strawberries. Wish there were more chocolate syrup and ice cream though. XD

Huge dessert! Me likey!

While I was eating the dessert and Don was playing around with his new BB Torch that he got for free (life is totally unfair), a guy actually stood next to our table for sometime before Don noticed him. Sorry I was too engrossed with the dessert to actually notice my surroundings. So this guy pointed at me and asked Don, "Is that Jun?". And being dumbfounded, Don said "ya.". Turns our it was my ex uni mate la... LOL. Have been such a long time since we saw each other coz I've been skipping classes everyday and he was in a different course. So apparently after my weight loss, he could hardly recognize me. XD

Food all day long

2010-11-21T17:59:00.002+08:00

Lately everyone's been commenting that I'm so skinny I should eat more, and it's really frustrating coz before the diet people were calling me fat, and now after, skinny. Make up your mind people!!!

I like the way my body looks right now. Wish I had more baby fats on my face though (which is totally the opposite of what most girls would wish for).

Anyway, because everyone's been commenting that I'm too skinny and should eat more despite explaining over and over again that I have been eating alot, I'm gonna post up all the food that I take in lately. And if people are still commenting that I'm not eating enough, I'd start killing people already.

Making tea while waiting.

Went to Sakae Sushi at Pavillion for a late lunch, had their agedashi tofu, and a few other food which I didn't take any pictures of them coz I was starving. When the waiter served my food, I gulped it all down, then only I remembered I was suppose to take photos of the food. =.=

While ordering.

Was craving for meat that day so Tony Roma's it was. Ordered the Lamb Chop and Oxtail Soup for dinner. Yums!

Wish the portion was bigger though! XDXD

Wanted to order the desserts too but it was near closing time so headed to Teeq at Lot10 for drinks and desserts instead. *ngek ngek*

White wine

Mocktail

Homemade chocolate brownie!!!

Desserts melts my heart big time!

The moment I entered Sakae Sushi to Teeq restaurant was only within 8 hours. So ya, tell me again that I don't eat enough. =.= I WILL make you say I eat too much within the next few posts.

Sometimes I just feel ugly

2010-11-21T03:46:00.001+08:00

Went to the Shout! Award event earlier and I saw many sexy chicks including the celebrities. It just made me feel awful about myself.

You know that feeling where you just feel like you're so ugly, you get so envious or even jealous of others?

You know you're not ugly at all, in fact you know you look good if not better.

But the thing is, other people still look better than you.

Their skin is flawless, hair is luscious, body is hot, eyes are bigger. Just everything about other people makes you feel ugly.

For some reason, I feel really old, as in my appearance. I look old. That's like totally incurable. FML.

Hate my skin, they're anything but flawless, in fact, flawed.

Hate my teeth, blame myself for not liking to brush teeth when I was a child.

Hate my hair, for some reason it's really bad and I'm balding.

Hate my bone structure, they make me look huge despite being called skinny now.

Hate my boobs, they're not big enough. WTF.

Hate my feet, they're in the wrong size. Where can I get shoes in sizes between 39 and 40?

Hate my lips, they're too thick.

Hate my nose, I think it's growing rounder.

Hate my lashes, it's as if they don't exist.

It's not even about self confident or lack of self appreciation anymore, it's just that feeling. The feeling of feeling ugly.

Well, I'm having that feeling now.

I guess it's true what they say, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.

Wish someone would redo my grass now. =.=

Shots of the new me in DoubleTree by Hilton

2010-11-20T12:39:00.000+08:00

A few weeks back I had an overnight stay at the DoubleTree Hotel by Hilton along Jalan Tun Razak. Invited Moon for dinner then to chill out together in the hotel room. We had an awesome camera to play with that night so we took lotsa shots together and of each other.

I won't be publishing shots of Moon coz that'll be up to her to edit. But I'll be showing you guys the shots she took of me. =)

My photographer, Moon.

Basically I don't have any captions for the photos. They're just vanity shots of myself. Haha. But I had lotsa fun that night with Moon in the hotel. =)

Singapore Trip (Day 2)

2010-11-18T16:35:00.000+08:00

Day 2 for the Singapore trip post is finally up. After a good rest the night before, all 4 of us were energized. Probably except Yuki since she has this problem of sleeping in new places. XD

Everyone took turns to shower and got dressed. All of us camwhored maximum, if you're on my Facebook, you'd know.

A pic of all 4 of us! =)

I was actually wearing a black top after I got out of the shower. But then I saw Moon and Yuki were wearing singlets so I decided to change into a singlet that I bought the night before.

This is the top I bought from Bugis street the night before.

FYI, this top is also sold in KL. WTF. I've seen the top before but didn't buy it and decided to buy it in Singapore instead. XDXD Not much difference in the price though, probably cheaper by RM1 compared to if I had bought it in KL.

Matching tops! =)

Camwhored out early morning faces. XD

While everyone was packing, each of us took turns to camwhored with the awesome camera. Didn't upload the rest of the photos coz it would take me years to touch up on each photos. Plus I'm not sure if Moon and Yuki wanted their camwhored photos publicly published on my blog. XD

With shades! =p

Checked out of the hotel and took the MRT to get our brunch.

We both look so much radiant compared to the day before. =)

3 leng luis, I love this shot! =p

Anyway, had our brunch at... Oops, sorry, I forgotten where. =.= But I had beef noodles again and it tasted not bad at all, which is surprising to me again. Or is it coz I have low demand in food quality? I don't know. XDXD

While I was waiting for my food at the counter, an American lady wanted to asked the cashier girl what the previous customer had ordered. Surprisingly, the cashier girl couldn't understand English and was putting up the kind of rude attitude which I felt was "I don't understand English so go to another food counter and stop bugging me". So I helped the American lady to translate and conversed with the cashier girl.

Yums~

After our brunch we headed back to Wilson's aunt's place to drop of our luggage and continued walking around Singapore.

At the bus terminal.

Was posing that we were tired of waiting, guess it didn't work. XD

Photo with Wilson. XD

Moon and Yuki kept insisting that the smiley face card should be in every shot we take. WTF.

Camwhored in the bus! Nice pic!

After dropping of our luggage we proceeded to Orchard Road and walked around in the malls. Pretty much nothing for us to do except window shopping. Hahaha. Traveled all the way to Singapore for window shopping. WTF. XD

I'm loving the camera la, photos all look so nice.

This was suppose to be candid but Yuki and I managed to pose just in time. XD

Poser us. =)

Love the decorations in the back. =)

We stopped to buy some drinks and while Yuki was making payment, she somehow spoil her CK purse. The zip malfunction wtf. We tried to help her fix it but it was all in vain. She got upset so we decided to take a photo of her and myself looking upset. XD

Upset - posers. XD

Anyway Yuki is very nice to be hugged, how lucky Wilson is!!! XD

Then we proceeded to have Tako balls, which were really huge compared to the once in KL. =.=

Quite tasty too!!! =)

Got so tired of walking around we eventually decided to head back to the car and make our way back to KL.

We look so jakun taking photos at the MRT but we had fun!

Didn't care what the other bystanders were thinking bout us at all! XD

Tired us in the bus. Yuki and that smiley face card. =.=

We arrived back in KL bout 10pm which was really fast, The whole journey only took us bout 3-4 hours. Took some funny videos in the car during our journey back that the camera ran out of battery!!! WTF. Btw Moon was hysterical and hyper active throughout the entire journey back. =.=

Ending the post with a goofy pic of myself. =)

2010-11-16T13:35:00.000+08:00

Remember the Xplay Shout! Awards I wrote about few weeks back?

Well the pre party for the Shout! Award was held at The Library e@curve last Saturday night.

Check out the people outside the place!!!

Check out the awesome crowd that came for the Xplay Shout! event that night.

As tempting as all the pictures look, I for once, unfortunately, wasn't able to make it for the event despite given free tickets. T___T But I've seen the tweets and blog updates from several bloggers which made me very envious that they got to attend the party! T___T

Singapore Trip (Day 1)

2010-11-15T15:36:00.000+08:00

Headed down to Singapore for a 2 day 1 night trip on the last weekend of October. It was rather a spontaneous trip since almost no planning was done prior to the trip. WTF.

Wilson was our driver together with Yuki, Moon and myself. I was rather tired that day since I didn't sleep the night before. I was up doing something else. XD

Anyway, Wilson came and we met at Moon's house bout 5.30am. Then we headed somewhere (which I've forgotten) for dimsum breakfast coz me and Moon were starving. LOL.

In the first half of the journey, Moon was sound asleep. O.o

Damn yeng one, wear shades to sleep.

In the second half of the journey, I was the one sound asleep. WTF.

Sumore can make fun of me sleeping. =.=

This is me after waking up. I look tired, I know.

Anyway, it's been a very long time since I've been to Singapore. At least 12 years since the last time I was there. WTF. So everything was really new to me despite me being dead exhausted.

Stopped by at Wilson's aunt's place to park the car, then traveled around by bus and the MRT.

4 of us in the bus!

Camwhore shot!

Actually, i don't really remember the places we went coz Wilson was the one bringing us around and I was too tired to remember anyways. Paiseh. So I'll just post some photos here instead.

Me and Yuki.

With Wilson.

Ok the reason we took the shot below was a weird one. Yuki was standing in front of the mirror of this shop that sells watches and I went to her side to compare our hips. Yuki has the nicest figure I've ever seen so comparing to hers was somewhat like comparing to a dream figure. Then Moon came in and compared hips together as well. The next thing we all know, Moon called Wilson into the mirror and wanted to snap a picture. I was like "What? Serious? People are looking! People are actually doing their business here weh...". But Moon insisted. It took some time for Moon to adjust the angle to fit all 4 of us in the mirror. Once the picture was taken, we all instantly walked away from the shop quickly without looking back. *embarrassed*

Funny shot.

Continued to walk around and snapped more photos. Basically I was so darn tired, I wasn't interested in any of the stuff we saw in the mall.

Shot of us girls outdoor. =)

Evidence of my very very tired face. =(

Then we headed to a dessert shop and the 3 of them ordered desserts. It was something like a cake pie/tart thingy. I didn't have any coz I didn't have the appetite. Can you imagine it? Me, no appetite for desserts??!!! Ya... I had some things on my mind that day and it troubled me the entire day. =(

Went goofy in taking pictures after they finished their desserts, There were alot more photos taken that time and they're all on my Facebook now.

Shot 1

Shot 2

Even camwhore in the toilet! XD

Went to to Bugis to meet up Ven and Cheez for dinner. Had beef noodles that night. Tasted quite nice to my surprise. LOL. It was nice meeting them up in Singapore although we do it quite often in KL. Haha.

Very tired face.

With Ven and Cheez.

Camwhored again in the loo!

Continued to walk around Bugis street after dinner. It was dead tiring k? I didn't sleep at all the night before and have been walking around the entire day!!! Moon got herself quite alot of stuff and I manage to get only ONE top by the end of the night. WTF right? Wanted to get high waist belts for myself at the cheapest rates ever but all the belts were too big for me. =(

They were complaining they look fat so they hid behind my body. WTF.

And finally we got ourselves back to the hotel. Hotel Re! btw. Not a bad place at all. The bed was so big it fitted all 4 of us. =)

This was taken while Wilson was in the shower.

It was darn tiring day, and although I had lots on my mind, I kinda enjoyed myself. Had pillow talk with the girls as they were sipping red wine. Then we just fell asleep until the next morning.

Will update bout day 2 trip soon! =)

Brotzeit Bier Bar & Restaurant with 3liter!!!

2010-11-13T18:38:00.001+08:00

I think it was bout 2 weeks ago that Don brought me along to Brotzeit Mid Valley to meet up with the others.

If you haven't heard of Brotzeit, they're actually a German restaurant located in Mid Valley that serves pork knuckles!!!

You can also check out their Facebook page for more info!

So Leonard actually treated Don a 3 liter bier since he told them he was a good drinker. XD

Don posing with his 3 liter.

It was huge HooiNee could fit her whole face in the glass!!!

It's amazing how Don can take a photo of HooiNee and myself yet don't make me look huge!

HooiNee helping out Don. XD

Leonard showing his skills.

I tried a bit only, couldn't even lift the glass. Hahaha!

Don in action!

Ok this was actually a poser pic la, I don't kiss girls. XD

Got tipsy that night. =.= I suck at drinking.

But Brotzeit is a very good place to chill out though. You guys should drop by there when you're free. =)

*p/s: Leonard looks like Aloysius Snuffleupagus from Sesame Street. If you don't know who's Aloysius Snuffleupagus, check it out here!

Dammit Brownie! When will u learn?

2010-11-12T22:53:00.000+08:00

FML. Today when I came back home for a moment just before I headed out to dinner again, Brownie was kept outside the house in our yard since my family were out having their dinner.

WTF Brownie was damn hyper to see me she kept jumping on me and despite telling her not to do so over and over again, she still does it.

WTF WTF WTF!

She jumps up really high and at full speed and strength. She's just medium in size but when she jumps the tip of her nose could easily reach 165cm and above.

So like I was saying, she was freaking hyper. I was wearing T-shirts and a denim short skirt so needless to say I had scratches on my body thanks to her constant jumping.

But that was still ok, until the moment I tried to put the key into the door.

Bang! She hit me in the mouth.

Her head/nose/mouth bang into my mouth. WTF!!!

I felt my lips gone numb and I was furious with Brownie. Told her not to jump and sit still in a very fierce and loud voice, yet she still doesn't listen.

That got me even more furious I spanked her a couple of good times on her butt and hit her nose once.

Then she decides to sit still. WTF?!

Hurried in to the house to look into the mirror to check if my lips were bleeding. I didn't taste blood before that so I was still hoping it was just a minor injury.

When I looked into the mirror...

OMFG!!! My lips!!!

It was bleeding. Non stop. Didn't want to taste my own blood so I refrained from licking my own lips. Managed to snap the photo above before cleaning the wound.

After washing away the blood and leaving on ice on my lips, my lips stopped bleeding.

It was clear that my lips were swollen and the the wound was really red. I foresee blue black in the next few days, and purple lips for at least a week. FML.

See????!!!!! T____T

Thank goodness I don't have any occasions that requires me to look beautiful within the next week.

Brownie ended up emo-ing at the corner of the house coz I spanked her. =.=

Even moments ago when I came home, she wanted to jump on me again but was hesitant and much gentle when she's around me.

I guess spanking does help.

FML.

Hennessy Artistry 2010 at The Mines

2010-11-11T23:10:00.000+08:00

I know it's been way overdue but few weeks back I attended Hennessy Artistry, The Global Art of Mixing Party at The Mines International Exhibition Convention Center. I was invited by Donovan to be his Plus One, which I'm very thankful for. =)

Met alot of bloggers there, and Don introduced me to quite a few new people.

The whole night was kinda bored in the beginning, it just didn't felt happening. But towards the end of the night I downed a few glasses of Hennessy real fast and the next thing I know I was dancing around. =.=

Then I got really tipsy that Michelle had to help me on my feet and back to Don's car. *embarrassed*

Anyway, Don sent me back to Moon's place coz the girls were having a drinking and pillow talk session, which I was too drunk to talk much bout anything.

Puked in front of Moon's neighbor's house too. WTF.

It was a very very embarrassing night for me since it was my first time going out with Don and I actually puked. FML.

I dunno how many times should I make myself promise to stay away from Hennessy and actually doing it.

*ps: not much photos to show coz I didn't felt like bringing my camera there that night. Ooops!

Chocolate Tuxedo @ Starbucks!

2010-11-11T01:01:00.000+08:00

Chocolate Tuxedo from Starbucks.

Lately I'm really addicted to desserts. I have desserts almost every single day. Sometimes twice a day. WTF. Ice creams, cakes, anything sweet, I love. XDXD

Honestly, I'm gaining weight lately. Not alot, bout 0.5kg heavier. I don't look fat yet, but the the tummy is getting bigger due to all the sweet stuff. Guess I just have to cut down on my desserts. =(

Anyway, I haven't been in the mood to update my blog these few days. I don't have anything to write about, and I dunno how to write any interesting stuff. Got lotsa photos to show, but no words to tell. =(

You guys will just have to bear with what I write for now.

Sometimes in life

2010-11-08T16:22:00.001+08:00

Sometimes in life,

we reach a time where difficult decisions have to be made.

Sometimes in life,

we make decisions that hurt others.

Sometimes in life,

these decisions that we make might not be the right one.

Sometimes in life,

we'll regret the decisions that we've made.

Sometimes in life,

we have people who supports our decisions.

Sometimes in life,

we have people who don't understand our decisions.

Sometimes in life,

things are just plain complicated.

Sometimes in life,

these are just the things that we have to go through.

One thing is for sure,

these difficult decisions are the ones that define you.

La Bodega~

2010-11-06T20:40:00.000+08:00

Dropped by at La Bodega at Pavilion 2 weeks ago for lunch. Was my first time there actually. *feels so kampung*

Snapped some photos of the place.

Pictures on the wall.

The menu.

Didn't really know what to order at first, then Donovan helped me out.

Cappuccino - RM9.00

Chili Linguini - RM26.00

Spaghetti Ramazetti - RM26.00

The food was not bad. Wouldn't say they tasted delicious but still, not bad.

Anyway, Donovan had a meeting with his client so I went around walking in Pavilion, of coz with nothing to buy, coz I was saving for my Singapore trip at that moment, which I returned home from empty handed.

The lunch was right before the food tasting session at National Geographic store. After the food tasting session, we went for desserts. More like I went for dessert, and Donovan accompanied me. XD

My favorite dessert from MOF, soft-served with chocolate syrup.

Then Donovan on his laptop and showed me something really cool. LOL. I don't remember what it's called but you guys would already know it if you're good in tech stuff. I was holding a small card and when reflected by the camera, it turns into a car!!!

Cute kan???!!! XD

Last pic.

Ok la this is just another random post but then again, I've got pretty much nothing happening going on in my life right now except for outings and food. XDXD Have yet to process the photos from Singapore, so that will just have to wait probably a few more days.

Random stuff

2010-11-02T16:15:00.000+08:00

Actually I have alot of pending posts and photos to process, but I'm just kinda lazy and preoccupied lately.

I'm back from my Singapore trip but I didn't get myself anything except for a simple top. Disappointed. Wanted to go Bangkok but then the flight tickets got too expensive so that had to be postponed. Oh well...

Parents been calling me non stop and pestling me to get my resume done, and after 1 whole week, it's finally done. I'm rather down though coz I really don't feel like working.

I have so much to say yet they're all so complicated that I rather not write it out in my blog at all.

Anyways, running out of clothes to wear. It's busy days like these that I realize, I don't have much clothes at all.

It's shopping time!!!

I'm in Singapore

2010-10-31T12:13:00.002+08:00

Hi guys...

Saw this awesome ad at Great Eastern Mall and decided to take a picture with it.

Hahaha!!!

Anyway, I'm currently in Singapore with the girls for a short shopping trip. Will be back Sunday night, which is today! =)

Food Tasting @ National Geographic Store

2010-10-30T01:40:00.000+08:00

Thanks to Donovan, I was able to join a food tasting session at National Geographic Store located at Lot10. You're right, National Geographic Store. I dunno how many of you actually heard or know of the place, but I for once, did not know such place existed!!! FML. And to think I'm a KL girl. WTF.

So this National Geographic Store was basically displayed with lotsa stuff such as books, magazines, apparels, bags, maps, soft toys and so on. I'll show you guys some of the photos I took the other day.

Huge iconic logo on the ground, which is beautiful if you ask me.

Remember this pic? You should.

Globes.

The place.

World map.

Cute pandas! Me likey!

Soft toys.

Bags and apparels.

So there's this lil cafe inside the store and that's where the food tasting session came in.

The bar.

The lil cafe.

They served us white wine.

Red Wine too.

And also fruit drinks w/o alcohol.

Pintxo De La Foto - RM15 (4 pieces)

Smoked Salmon , anchovy and red pepper toasts

I'm still not taking in bread so I didn't taste the toast, just the toppings. I'm not a big fan of anchovies truth be told. But the salmon tasted great even though I'm nt a big fan of salmon either. XD

Aceitunas Alinadas - RM12 (Bout 10 pieces)

Marinated olives

This is a dish not everyone could take. It was a lil bit too salty for me, but the dish itself looks great. I suppose those who fancy pickles or the jeruk can give this a try.

Anchoa Jardinera - RM16 (4 pieces)

Boquerones and vegetables toasts

Sorry, no comment for this since I don't like anchovies and I'm not eating bread. So... If you love anchovies on your pizza, you may like this.

Tigres - RM14 (4 pieces)

Mussels in spicy tomato sauce

I love mussels. LOL. I have a thing for oysters and mussels and I don't know why. The taste was nice but I felt that the mussels were a lil bit over cooked. Then again it could be due to the delay in starting the food tasting session coz the people didn't arrive on time and there was a presentation earlier on. I think if the food were served fresh, the taste would be awesome.

Albondigas - RM12 (5 pieces)

Spanish meatballs

This was one of the many bloggers's favorite. It's a simple dish but the taste of it is very rich and the meat is not tough. Chewy yet tasty. Nice.

Txalupa - RM 16 (6 pieces)

Mushroom prawn and cheese tartlets

I like this dish. It has a strong mushroom taste with a hint of cheese flavor. Very rich and creamy overall.

Puerros Con Crema De Questo - RM12 (6 pieces)

Cream cheese and leek toasts

This is my favorite. I didn't eat the toast instead I just nibbled off the toppings. LOL. The cheese was very rich and the leek was flavored just nicely. Donovan likes this too coz they made the effort in cutting the bread into small round pieces. WTF.

Seared Scallop with Guacamole - price not given

Sea scallop with guacamole and macerated orange

I love scallops too. But like I said before, due to a delay in starting the food session, the food quality wasn't as good anymore. But one thing's for sure, the scallop are huge and the Guacamole was just simply yummy. =p

Puff and Mash - price not given

Puff pastry with mash potato and boneless braised oxtail

This is another dish that I liked. The oxtail meat was seasoned just nicely to blend in with the mash potatoes. You won't even feel that you're eating several ingredients all together, they just blend perfectly with each other.

Bacalao Con Boniato Y Encurtidos - RM12 (one plate)

Grilled salt cod with marinated garlic and pickles

For this dish, I have to be honest. I didn't like it. The purple paste is actually sweet potato paste. I don't really like mushy stuff other than mashed potatoes. The whole thing just tasted really weird in my mouth. On the other hand, several other bloggers are telling me that this dish tasted nice. So what the heck is wrong with my taste buds?!

Queso Con Membrillo - RM16 (4 pieces)

Manchega cheese and quince

This is something you would definitely enjoy with a glass of wine (not that I'm a wine lover, but I am a cheese lover). Donovan said if you eat bigger piece of cheese with a lil bit of quince, it'll taste yummy.

Gambas Al Ajillo - RM12 (4 pieces)

Sizzling garlic prawns

Giant prawns!!! With garlic too. I love it. Still only one problem, it's served cold due to the delay. =( Wish the food tasting session wasn't delayed, then I could've enjoyed this dish the way it was meant to be. EMO-nya~

Me with the fruity drink.

Anyway, back to the fruit drink. It's sorta like a mixture of kiwi, apple and carrot I think. I'm not too sure what's the orangy red color thingy. It's kinda sour but refreshing. Only had one glass though, sweet drinks spoils my appetite. XDXD

Btw, they have this rectangular yellow bos frame located outside the store with different backgrounds. And I took photo with of them. Check it out! Haha.

Just like from a National Geographic magazine. =p

The lil cafe located in the National Geographic Store isn't a place to go to if you're looking for a place to stuff yourself like a roast turkey on thanks giving. It is however, a nice place to chill with your friends or love ones with refreshing drinks, wine or coffee. If you're unsure about the things that I've wrote, you could always drop by the place and check out their menu, The waiters there are really friendly and they'd be glad to introduce you to the food/drinks selection they have. If the food isn't up to your liking, you could drop by to get some iconic National Geographic stuff too. =)

Coliseum and MOF!

2010-10-28T01:08:00.000+08:00

Ok I've been very busy these few days hence the lack of updates. Anyway, I'm updating my twitter more often than my blog, so follow me if you're as lifeless as I am. Hahhaha.

Went out with Louis last week when he took leave from work. This will be a short and simple post with lotsa pictures coz I'm really tired now. I'm typing this at 1am and I've still got plenty of stuff to do.

My look.

Went to Coliseum along Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman. I've been to Coliseum with my family since ages ago and I've always wanted to go back there coz of their sizzling chicken. =)

The menu cover.

Ordered food as soon as we sat down coz we were freaking hungry edi.

While waiting for the food to be served.

Guava Juice - RM4.50

Salad that comes with the sizzling chicken.

Side dishes with the sizzling chicken.

The waiter serving the sizzling chicken.

Sizzling Spring Chicken with Ham - RM28.90

Too bad it's spring chicken and not chicken chop. I prefer the sizzling chicken in Cozy Corner, Ampang Park.

Like a baby with her napkin! XD

Grilled New Zealand Lamb Chop - RM23.90

Louis

I know I look kinda different here, it's the fringe.

Went to Pavilion for a movie after that, apparently I've forgotten what movie did we watched. WTF. I'm really too busy lately. T____T

Had desserts right before the movie started, MOF. I love their soft served. =p

Menu.

Soft Served with Chocolate Syrup - RM5.90

Piggy Pout, but I don't look piggy anymore.

Oreo Chocolate Chip Ice Blended - RM11.90 (I think)

Huge!!! But not as sweet as I hope it'd be.

Me and Louis.

Last pic, full body pic. I like!!! =)

Will update soon again, I promised!!!

Disappointed in Nuffnang

2010-10-25T22:44:00.002+08:00

Most of you would probably think this is just another bitchy post like the one I usually write. I don't care. I need to voice this out.

So few weeks back Nuffnang had a "leave the best comment" to get a pair of invites to the movie screening Takers, which is happening right now. Monday, 25th October 2010, 9pm, Mid Valley.

So I left a comment, and last week, I received the invites from Nuffnang. Which made me really happy. Coz I seldom attend movie screenings and for once I'm able to join a movie screening under my own name, and not as other blogger's guest. So well, ya, I was really looking forward to the movie, and to meet some other bloggers too.

So in the email, Nuffnang said that the ticket booth will be set up at 8pm, and that we should collect our movie tickets before 9pm.

I arrived Mid Valley about 6pm, and was chilling in Brotzeit with Donovan and other bloggers. Most the bloggers there were collecting their movie tickets under Sirens Media Sdn Bhd.

Louis came and joined me for dinner at Chilis at 7.30pm. After waiting for some time to be seated and finally ordered my dinner, it was already 8pm.

Fearing that I might get lousy seats if I went and collected my tickets late, I went up to the cinema lobby right after the waiter took my order.

FYI, it's common sense that people who collect their tickets earlier gets better seats. Just like the way a normal cinema ticket booth would function. If you buy your tickets late, you are left with lousy seats (aka front row seats).

So I arrived at the ticket booth at 8.05pm. Trust me, I looked at the time on my phone while I was queuing up to register myself.

Apparently, they didn't have the tickets with them yet and many of us were asked to come back after 8.30pm. They let us register ourselves and assigned number to us as well indicating we were there first.

Fine. I went back to my dinner, which was already served and slightly cooled off when I returned.

I went back to the cinema lobby to collect my tickets bout 8.50pm. They took a look in the list and according to the number I was given earlier on when I registered myself, I was given 2 tickets.

The seatings that I got was N13 and N14.

N13 and N14!!!

If you dunno what seats those are, I'll let you know. Freaking first row seats ok.

This is not a concert, it's a movie, and first row seats are the worst kind you can get.

You may say it's a free movie invites courtesy of Nuffnang to me, and I should appreciate what I got. But hear me out, it's not like I don't have the money to pay for the tickets. I wrote a comment that got me the tickets, and I was there 8.05pm to register myself. If I was late to register myself in the first place, and got those front row seats, fine with me. The point is, I registered at 8.05pm.

So you're telling me early birds get lousy seats while the late worms get awesome seats?!

Tell me that is fair and that is how companies manage themselves, then I'll shut the heck up.

If you say that the seats were given based on the creativity level of our comments (which I doubt so), I'd rather they let us know that in the first place. My comment wasn't great, I admit. Still, if they had told me my comment only qualified me for first row seats, I wouldn't even have wasted my time to travel to Mid Valley.

I walked out from the cinema probably less than a minute after the movie started. Free or not, I'm not that hard up for it. Being able to watch the movie 2 days earlier than it's released date, so what?! There're lousy seats and I wouldn't have enjoyed myself in the first place. I would rather pay and have fun.

And btw, I was too, offered a pair of invites by Sirens Media Sdn Bhd . Which tcketing system function as first come first served basis, meaning whoever enters the cinema first get to choose their seats. But I turned them down in support of Nuffnang. Which is why I'm really disappointed in the way Nuffnang handled the tickets this time.

UPDATES:

Nuffnang called me earlier this morning to apologize about this incident. So I'm cool with it edi. After all it was a simple innocent mistake. =)

Brownie the Pig

2010-10-25T14:05:00.001+08:00

Few weeks back I went to the Cutie Pet Fair at One Utama Central Park, and I saw this really buffed and fit German Shepherd.

He's actually very big in size although it can't be seen here.

Anyway, I was thinking, shouldn't all dogs look as masculine as he does? He's just so darn handsome!!!

Just one question though...

Why does Brownie look like this?!

=.="

Btw, I'm now one of the Malaysia's Hottest Bloggers, that's a group in Facebook FYI. Do check out their page here. There're lotsa others hot female bloggers that you'll definitely wanna check out. =)

My Tweety Duck

2010-10-22T01:15:00.000+08:00

It was a Sunday, and Louis promised to bring me for a Dim Sum breakfast at Kuchai Lama. Woke up at 8am coz of Brownie's barking. =.= Then as I crawled back into bed, my tummy started to ache. It felt like the last time when I had stomach cramp. Awful. Rested in bed for awhile and I got better after some time. Still manage to go for breakfast even though we delayed our departure time for about an hour or so. XD

I love Dim Sum alot. Haha. I dunno why, but I just love it. Most of the time I always eat the very few same stuff yet I can never be bored of them. XD The restaurant that we went to that day is called Restaurant Jin Xuan Hong Kong, located at the Entrepreneur's Park in Kuchai Lama.

Camwhore in car again!

As we arrived there, the restaurant was packed with people. While waiting for a table, I spotted this stall whereby they sell helium balloons. Me likey! Louis promised to get me a helium balloon since dunno how many months ago, but never got me one. =( I was eying on the balloons coz I especially liked the tweety bird helium balloon. Even when I'm eating, I'm keeping an eye on the balloon coz I was afraid some kid will rob me of my tweety bird! WTF! Hahaha!.

No photos of the food coz there's only 2 of us and there wouldn't be much variety of food for you to see anyway. So after our brunch, I pulled Louis to the balloon stall and finally, I got myself a helium tweety bird balloon. Happy-nya~

My big headed tweety bird! (it's printed duck, WTF)

I'm loving it so much!

Tweety Duck in the back seat. =p

We headed to Sg. Wang after that for a walk. Louis was suppose to get me something. He eventually found the thing he promised me quite easily. Haha. I know I said I'm not suppose to do any shopping to save money for my Singapore trip by the end of the month, but it was really difficult to resist. Got myself a brown sling bag instead, for only RM20, how to resist?! XD

Went to KFC and had their krushers, it's like an ice blended drink with chunks of nuts and cookies. We tried the Oreo flavor the last time, so this time, we had the Mocha flavor. It's really yummy, for only RM5. XD

Mocha mocha mocha~

Camwhored a bit while having our krushers. Hehe.

This was taken ala camwhore style, but by Louis.

Finally I'm not the one holding the camera!

This is cute! Hehe.

After the krushers, we walked around and manage to bump into Moon, and also Victor with his gf. What a small world. Had to rush back home to prepare for a dinner at Palate Palette at Jalan Mesui the same night, and Louis had to go for his futsal. It was a very tiring day!!! XD

Btw, if you're wondering, the Tweety Bird helium balloon costs RM7 and it is still floating in the air up to an hour ago before it finally hit the ground. XD

Delicious along Jalan TAR

2010-10-20T12:48:00.000+08:00

Went to the Delicious Cafe along Jalan Tun Razak on Saturday night with Louis. Wanted to catch a movie as well but things didn't go as well as planned. Oh well...

Arrived at the restaurant bout 9.30pm and we had to wait for about 15 minutes before we were seated, there were just too many people. So while waiting, I asked Louis to take pictures of me. XD

Pic 1

Pic 2

Pic 3 (candid)

Pic 4 (my hips look huge)

A camwhored pic! XD

After taking dunno how many freaking photo, we finally sat down at the waiting section. While Louis was checking the movie screening schedule for that night, I got him to take a photo with me. =)

Louis~

After not long later, we got seated finally. It's quite lucky that we got a really nice place next to the window. We took a look at the menu and we sorta had an argument. I wanted to order Carbonara but then Louis then said he couldn't eat beef. Then I changed my mind to Duck something pasta and started pouting and throwing my princess tantrum. Then eventually I started sulking while Louis was ordering for both of us. WTF. I continued to sulk until he showed me his ipod.

=) =) =)

Me!

My head looks extraordinarily big.

The food was served soon after.

Vanilla Milk Shake - yums!

Portabella Mushroom Burger.

Carbonara Spaghetti.

Last but not least, a final camwhore pic of myself in the ladies.

The top is from Cotton On btw, bloody cheap one sumore. Haha!

Cheez's BD party at Somerset Ceylon

2010-10-18T23:27:00.000+08:00

This happened 2 weeks ago. WTF I always update stuff that I do weeks after it actually happened. I'm so sorry. =.=

Anyway, it was Cheez's 22nd birthday and they held a small house party at Somerset Ceylon, a serviced apartment.

Somerset Seri Bukit Ceylon

8 Lorong Ceylon,

Off Jalan Raja Chulan

50250 Kuala Lumpur

Took the LRT to KLCC and met Evelyn there, then we took the bus to Pavilion to meet up with Ven. It was my first time taking a bus to Pavilion, and definitely my first time on a city bus since 5 years ago. OMG.

Time for photos of the place they rented for the night.

Master bedroom.

Toilet, basin.

Toilet, bathtub.

Toilet, shower.

The other room.

Kitchen.

Living room.

The place was really nice and fully air conditioned. The kitchen had everything you needed, pots, plates, forks and spoons, you name it. If I was not mistaken, the whole place only cost bout RM500 per night. Cheap!

Camwhore first! XD

With Ven. =)

With the girls~

Ven, Evelyn and Jess.

The birthday cake! Yums~

The birthday boy!!! =)

A part of the people at the party.

See that keg of Heineken? We drank directly from its nozzle. It was very very very yummy. Haha. Drank quite alot and I got myself tipsy. Even manage to get a friend of Cheez, Yoke Han to go topless if I manage to drink 10seconds straight from the keg of Heineken. Hahaah!!! Louis came and pick me up later that night, and he caught me being all tipsy playing with the toy guitar. XD

Me with the toy guitar! ^^

Had a great time that night. =p

Status: Completion of Studies

2010-10-17T02:10:00.000+08:00

The exam results for my final semester is finally out. Remember how upset and worried I was over my FYP a month ago? Well, thank the stars that I got a B. Haha. So much better than what I expected. FYI, B is a very good grade already since the best grade was a B+.

So right now, I'm officially jobless but not really searching for a job yet. Will start looking around next week. I know, I'm a procrastinator. But I just don't look forward to working life at all. =.=

This was actually a test shot for the vaseline post.

Anyway, I'm trying my best to not go shopping or buy anything at all coz I'm saving for a shopping trip to Singapore on the 29th. Somehow I have a feeling I'll fail this mission completely simply because, I recently just bought 6 pieces of clothing in just 3 days. OMFG. And FML coz I still feel like I have no clothes to wear. =.="

Will update again soon! =)

PastryCulture @ Tropicana City Mall

2010-10-15T12:28:00.000+08:00

I don't know if you guys know bout this but I've been craving for desserts ever since I ended my diet. Constantly noming on ice creams, cakes, you name it. No bread or donuts though, still kinda phobia to bread and rice and also deep fried stuff. XD

So the other day I was checking my email and I received and invitation to go check out a cake shop called the PastryCulture located at Tropicana City Mall. Now it's quite far away from where I'm staying but of coz, not to most of you guys since almost everyone stays far away from me, and it is only logical that you guys would be nearer to Tropicana City Mall. Make sense right? Unless you're not in KL/Selangor at all, then it's a different story. XD

Blur pic but Louis looks nice when the pic is blur. XD

So obviously my date to visit the PastryCulture was Louis. =)

I've only been to Tropicana City Mall once so I didn't know where the PastryCulture was located. To my surprise, it was amazingly easy to find! We took the escalator up from the parking and there it was, right outside Santini and San Francisco SteakHouse.

Greeted with the GM of PastryCulture, Ashly, and he introduced us to 2 signature cakes.

Dark Chocolate with Scotch Wisky (royal chocolate ganache with a wisky tone) - RM8.90

Ok, for those who loves chcolate with wine fillings, you'd love this. When I tasted it, it kinda felt like I was having a sip of alcohol. I'm not a big fan of alcohol with any desserts so I didn't like the cake very much. On the other hand, Louis who never eat cakes, enjoyed the slice of cake very much. He even said "I eat all la, you eat the other one.", with a big grin on his face. XD Seriously think my mom and sis woud love this cake too, they're such big fan of alcoholic desserts.

Ireland Coffee Layered (coffee taste ganache paired with dark chocolate) - RM8.90

I like this cake. The cake was soft and moist, tasted like coffee to me. The cream wasn't too sweet and it was just nice. You know when you eat cake with chocolate cream, you always feel like it's too much, it's too thick too sweet? This cake was on the contrary. It gave a very pleasant chocolate taste without leaving that overwhelming sweetness on your tongue.

Manage to taste a few other cakes as well. =)

Mango Regal (fresh mango and mousse) - RM7.90

I choose this cake basically coz it look bright and pretty. XDXD I don't usually like mango flavored desserts, but I know almost everyone likes mango flavored desserts. So for the review, I might as well taste em right? I thought the cake was nice, but I wish there were more fresh mango in the cake instead. The mousse wasn't too sweet, and it blended really well with the soft moist cake. It almost felt like eating mango flavored ice cream, all soft and not too sweet. =)

Strawberry Sensation (fresh strawberry with light custard) - RM7.90

Okay I must admit, I'm a sucker for pretty stuff and this cake apparently became my favorite of all even before tasting.

Now tell me you don't think it's pretty???!!!

The strawberry filling was just awesome. Sweet with a hint of sourness just like how strawberries should taste like. The light custard was exactly what it was named, light! You know how some cakes taste so rich coz of the cream they use, and by the time you finish your second bite, you're done for the night? This is so not like that. The cream was so light that it didn't felt too sweet or too thick at all. It was like the cream wrapped the strawberry fillings so that it smooths out the sourness and sweetness of it. Yummy! And if you've had strawberry flavored cakes, you'd know most shop uses artificial flavoring which is pretty in color and awful in taste. This Strawberry Sensation from PastryCulture is the one you should try! XD JunJun-Riko's recommendation!

There were many other cakes available but too bad there were only 2 stomachs to stuffed down the cakes. I skipped lunch just for this cake tasting session and I was stuffed after sharing 4 slices of cake with Louis. XD PastryCulture not only sells cakes, but also other pastry such as mini cupcakes, macaroons, delights of breads etc.

This strudel look yummy to me but I'm still on a bread strike. XD

Sunshine, pretty right? Got sunny eggs in it sumore!

Now let me tel you why you should visit PastryCulture. it's not just any other ordinary cake shop you know? Have you ever been to a cake shop whereby they actually let you taste the cake before buying em??!! You know, like the concept people are using for ice creams such as Baskin Robin. Try going to any cake shop and tell them, "eh I wanna have a taste of the tiramisu please". They'd probably call security on you if they had any. Haha!

Some of you probably wanted to bake a cake for your love ones but never really had the talent in baking except for burning stuff. What should you do? Head on to PastryCulture. Why? Coz for RM15 and above, you can decorate your own cake. I mean, the only difference of a homemade cake and a cake from a shop is the decorations right? You wanna decorate it specially for your love ones, write stuff like "I love you honey forever till forever" etc. So pay a minimum of RM15 and decorate all you want. It beats slaving in the kitchen for hours and then not to mention the cleaning process. Trust me, I know!

With GM, Ashly. =) Thanks for the cakes and pastries!

You wouldn't believe this but I did not leave PastryCulture empty handed.

The stuff that was given in courtesy of Ashly and also the cakes I bought for my family.

Blueberry Cheese (blueberry filling with cheese) - RM8.90

Tiramisu Kahlua (blend espresso, layered with cheese and kahlua) - RM8.90

Check out PastryCulture's new offerings courtesy of Ashly. There's Japan Cream Puff, Japan Egg Tart and also Japan Toast. I don't have a picture of the Japan Toast here due to some reasons, but it's a toast la, go check it out yourself if you're curious. XD

Japan Cream Puffs.

Soft and moist on the outside, creamy and rich on the inside. Yums!

Japan Egg Tart.

Ok this is my favorite. Like seriously. Almost as favorite as the Strawberry Sensation. I'm very particular about egg tarts. I seldom find any egg tarts nice simply coz I'm just that particular. But this egg tart was yummy. I didn't expect it to taste nice at all honestly. I took a bite out of it expecting the usual disappointment but I was surprised instead. The egg custard was soft and smooth, rich in egg taste yet not overwhelming. The tart itself was crunchy but not dry, instead very moist, something like what you would taste when eating the bottom of a cheesecake! *drools* Remember to get this too if you ever drop by PastryCulture. =p

So drop by at PastryCulture if you have the time k? No harm done in trying new places. =)
