  • “Balik Kampung” Day 1

    Hey guys! I’m back.

    So sorry for the lack of updates, I’ve been very busy with my work and trying to take some days off from blogging. The only reason is because I was organizing all my pictures I took in Taiwan. Thanks for those who FormSpring-ed me and reminded me to write about my Taiwan trip. So right now, I’ll write about my day 1 in Taiwan.

    Most of you might think that I went to Taiwan for a holiday but nope. I actually went back to visit my relatives which I’ve not seen in 2 years. Hehe I know most of you prefer to look at pictures rather than reading, and so do I. So I’ll just put up some pictures with captions.

    So jie jie and I bought the normal tickets for AirAsia and my parents bought the premier seats. I regretted when I saw the premier seats in the flight. Jie jie was like nvm we’re young so these seats are fine for us. Half an hour later, she regretted. The reason was one of the kids in the plane was shouting and running around. For me, running around is fine for me cox if there is turbulence he will be the one who falls and hurts himself, not my problem. HE FUCKING SHOUTED IN THE FLIGHT! Imagine a boy shouting non-stop beside you when u’re trying to catch some sleep. OMG, those parents with kids like him please make sure that you feed your kids with some sleeping pills before you board the flight, he was so irritating. I was so pissed and I stared at his parents and shook my head real hard to show them my annoyance. You guys have the responsibility to teach him! For your information, he is around 7-8, old enough to learn what is right and wrong. The worse thing was the grandpa giving him candies to calm him down but guess what he turned into a monster. Kids cant handle the sugar level it will make him even more hyper. *shake head* *fainted*

    Their seats are pretty comfy it’s way better than United Airlines =D

    I was freezing because I was too smart, I chose to wear shorts instead. Thank god dad bought liquor and they gave out free jackets!

    I was so comfy but I couldn’t fall asleep due to the stupid alarm running around beside me and jie jie.

    Jie jie was so mean, she bought herself a sandwich and she teased me by saying what if they don’t serve nasi lemak??? 0.0

    yes, they didn’t serve nasi lemak but nasi briyani. Aikssssss when can I try their nasi lemak? So frustrated!

    After 4 hours and 25 minutes of being tortured by the kid, we finally arrived in Taipei, Taiwan

    We took their airport shuttle from the airport to the train station. It was only 3 bucks, not tat bad.

    Then we took the High-speed rail from Taoyuan to Tainan, our final destination. The price was RM115 per adult and I think it’s a little bit expensive.

    Waited for 15 minutes….

    Jie and parents with all our luggages.

    Me and my parents with the luggages hehehe

    Train arrived in high speed.

    We spent 10 minutes arranging the luggages cause we had too many of them. So, we had to move ppl’s stuff around just to make sure they can see it and get it easily.

    The interior is really clean, comfortable seats and a lots of space for your legs.

    Jie and I spent the whole time playing games.

    and eating snacks we bought on the train.

    Took a picture with their vending machine inside the train.

    They have the cleanest toilet on any other public transportation that I have ever travelled in.

    After 1 hour and 15 mins, we were finally in Tainan. It was faster than I can ever imagin cause I know if we drive from Taoyuan to Tainan, it will take us 4 hours. Aunt picked us up from the terminal and off we went to makan!!!

    My favorite apple soda of all time!

    悶豬肉steamed pork with spring onion

    Fried octopus ball

    Fish & glass noodle soup

    steamed crabs

    I finally met grandpa (日本爺爺) and his manager who came all the way from Japan for a short visit. I was so happy when Grandpa says ” Bobo, You look like a Japanese.” That made my night, hahaha. A random taxi driver in the airport asked me if I was from SiChuan (四川)…fml

    85*c they serve the best bubble tea in town! Love it

    Got home at around 9pm, had a small little chocolate cake baked by my aunt and we called it the day.

    I was exhausted and dirty.

    To be continued … till then.

  • Birthday Dinner With The Girls

    Hey guys, Im back from Taiwan. Surprisingly I didn’t gain any weight maybe cause I sweated a lot in Taiwan. The weather was so hot and dry, I felt like I was in a sauna but nothing can beat the yummy food I had. *thumbsup* Will blog about my trip right after my birthday post.

    I promise this will be my last birthday post. I know the main page of my blog is full with birthday posts, it’s a little bit irritating already.

    I spent my last birthday celebration of 2010 with the girls at Daorae, Hartamas aka my favorite Korean restaurant.

    I was with jie jie so I asked her to join us for dinner.

    We were too hungry so we decided to have fried rice cake while waiting for Rae and Cheryl to arrive.

    They were finally here once we finished eating our fried rice cake.

    Then we ordered a few different meats for bbq. This is why I love korean bbq so much, meat meat and meat.

    No picture of me swallowing all the meat hahaha. The girls surprised me with a cute little pink cake.

    Singing the song

    make a wish….

    blew the cake alone wtf. Everyone was busy doing whatever they were doing.

    and cut the cake!

    They bought me a present too! When I was opening the present they were like it’s something that you need! At first I tot it was a clock and I was like dont tell me it’s a clock, Im very superstitious ler. DONT ever give out clocks as a birthday present because giving clocks means the end of your life.

    I was so surprised that they gave me a weighing scale! I’ve always wanted one and I found it too expensive to get a good one, very stingy.

    I used it straight away to make sure it works!

    and it works prefectly!

    Big thank you to Cheryl and Rae for the very thoughtful gift, I really appreciate it.

    Thanks for the cake too!

    Last but not least, once again I would love to thank those that made it to my birthday celebrations and shared your time and laughter with me.

    Love love love

  • I was so wasted on my Birthday.

    Right after having dinner with Jo we went back my place to chill for a while and then headed out to meet up with bb mich, bff, Ashley and Daniel. It was a last minute decision and surprisingly they all came and hung out with me, so sweet of them.

    So, we decided to go over to WIP, in Bangsar to have a few drinks. It was a Monday so I thought I would be safe from getting drunk and wasted. I was still sober till Daniel came over…

    When I was still sober…

    Bff and I. Lesson learned; take pictures with everyone before drinking so you wont look like a tomato. *smart*

    Ashley and I

    us

    Jo and I

    Then bb mich came over…

    After taking pictures with everyone I started to drink.

    the lovely couple

    Everything was fine till Daniel showed up. Once he got here he ordered a Flamming for me.

    I was trying to ask Jo or Dan to drink with me but everyone ignored me.

    I had to drink it alone. It’s not fun when you need to wake up early to work the next day.

    I still managed to take a picture with Daniel.

    Then he ordered a shot for me again, that was the killer. I swear I was about to throw up right after I finished the shot, super disgusting.

    Jo kept telling me :” Is ok la, Birthday girl ma.” WHY MUST A BIRTHDAY GIRL GET DRUNK?? Or maybe it only applies to those who cant drink, like me  wtf.

    2 Hoegaardens, 1 Flamming and 1 shot of B-52 was more than enough to make me pass out and fertilize the flower pots in BSC.

    I suffered but I had fun. Thanks to Daniel for making the last few hours of my birthday so memorable.

    Thanks to everyone who came to witness me getting wasted.

  • Birthday Dinner with ♥

    Hey guys, I finally have time continue my birthday post. How was everyone’s weekend? I had fun but it was tiring. I had to travel back to my hometown on Saturday and back to KL on Sunday. It was still fun ’cause I got to hang out with my family for a day. Jo started work since Monday, and due to his working hours, I have to wait till 10 pm to have dinner. Aiks, not good for my diet. Well, Im not complaining, Im happy that he still comes over after work to have dinner with me even though he is exhausted.

    Ok back to my original topic, Birthday dinner with JO.

    I guess this will be my 5th birthday celebration post. I always choose to have a simple dinner with JO on my actual birthday. So, Jo asked me a few days before to make sure Im still interested in having Italian for my birthday dinner but guess what, I changed my mind and  said I missed having tapas and Jo found a spanish restaurant that serves Tapas

    El Meson which is located at Telawi, Bangsar.

    A very cozy and comfortable restaurant.

    Aiks, I look a little bit bloated and lack of sleep…

    Jo and my bengkak eyes.

    No other reason, simply love the color and tone of this picture.

    Bread… (Im so out of words to say)

    Sangria for Jo

    Lychee Martini for me

    Patatas Bravas- Potatoes with Allioli and spicy tomato sauce

    Calamares Fritos con Allioli- Crispy Fried Squid

    Salchichas- Pork sausage tossed with onions and spicy bravas sauce

    Pinchos Ternera- Skewers of beef ribeye with Spanish paprika

    Roasted Pork Belly with Apple Sauce

    Pork Belly and Pork Ribs Stew- With Chorizo, Morcilla Blood Sausage and Beans

    We ended up ordering too much food for the 2 of us but I enjoyed all the dishes. I love Tapas cause of the small portions and they always taste super delicious.

    Thanks darling for this wonderful dinner and for the time that you spent with me.
