フロイライン リボルテック / 文化祭SPECIAL No.2 長門有希 魔法使い

7th June 2009:
Sis asked mum if she could buy me Nagata Yuki Revoltech ( she did it without my permission!!). Mum agreed and we went out to midvalley on the sunday. We first bought dad's father's day gift, a tie from My Tie Shop. A lovely tie, pink and black colour.
 
 
After that, I got my Kaiyodo Fraulein Revoltech Nagato yuki ^_^.



Tadaa...this is the one. Bought it in xl-shop. Was hesitating whether to get haruhi or yuki, but in the end got yuki. Ergh, why yuki more expansive! Saw Zetsubou Sensei in the shop, I really love it very very much, sis love it as well. He is just so cute and unbearable, hehehe.
We went Jusco for Taiko. Before we reached there, we saw a polo watch that mum wanted and it's 70% discount! Obviously we took one for ourselves. Mum, sis and I played taiko, weekdays were more fun because there are less people. We went on the sunday, so we had to bear those kids staring at us with those 'EYES' that they want to play first. So with concern with the eyeeing behind us, we did not play as much as we wanted. (Ergh, this is why I dislike kids)


After Taiko, mum twist gachapon, she din't get what she wanted, but her luck was not as bad as mine - remember, the white man T_T. Before heading home, mum bought a bag from Guess. White and Black big bag, it's really nice, cool to hold.


Some photoshoot of my Nagato Yuki:

Wizard style with wand.




Holding card board ^_^. Took many other different poses as well, but lazy to post, hehehe. Did not regret buying my yuki. Just love the delicate figure of revoltech ^_^.

大会!~ Putrajaya International Dragon Boat Festival 2009

Was Lazying around, keep delaying my posts. Will post all the stuffs one shot! Eto... This post will be about the Putrajaya International Dragon Boat Festival. I only went for the second day(6th June 2009) with my dad, and some relatives. It was a holiday therefore my chinese harp class was cancelled and i'm free for the day's outing.


We left house around 2pm, cousin came to pick dad and I out. We went to his Petronas in Sri Kembangan, looking around waiting for my cousin to settle some of his business there. We waited there for about 2 hours, mainly buying snacks and drinks from the petrol station, chit chat around.
Around 4pm, all of us left for Putrajaya. The venue looks like a sports day event to me. Many tents around, dragon boat teams doing their warm up exercise before the match. Foods stalls are everywhere too. All of us ate lecka lecka gelato due to the hot wheather. I'm really glad i brought my sun lotion, i bet most of the ladies with me were glad too (because of this i didn't get tan).
Aunt was in the boat race. She was in the Pink Spartan team, all of them are breast cancer survivors (some are spouse). It is really tough for them but they row through the competition smoothly by their strong team spirits (which I don't believe in anymore, sadly). Aunt won gold medal for local competition, and brownse for the international competition.
 
 

The Pink Spartan team. It was a little dark after the event. All of the members were very happy and hyper, and when i say hyper, it's really HYPER. We have to join them because we were sitting with them, so even though the shouting and clapping and water spraying were awkward, we still have to bear with them. Well, they are winning, so they should celebrate it well.




Took a group picture among relatives who went. Aunt was the one holding the medal. We went for dinner after the event. Cousin booked 3 tables for us and all members of pink spartan for dinner. Dinner was fair, chinese style banquet dinner. Aunt invited a girl, 26 yrs old Mandy who was an accountant. Aunt wanted me to 'make her feel comfortable' because she is not from their team. I was really worried that she will seperate me from my dad, i mean as in different table. But thank god, dad and I were still on the same table,just different seats. Aunt said I should ask Mandy about my expectations of being an accountant and all, well, I don't want to recall that anymore. But just a note, I managed to make friend with Mandy, and got her contacts, Aunt was pleased with my social skills as well.



Here's the name card for the restaurant. Names of the dishes were from the chinese novel, i guess the chef must be a novel lover ^_^. After dinner, relatives came drop by our house. They chatted a lot, i was lucky I managed to escape not to perform any instruments (i was dead tired after whole day of 'entertaining'), i bet i would not even complete any single piece that night. One thing that i was amazed to know is that cousin actually loves the electric guitar, he likes my guitar and I could see sparks in his eyes, hahaha.




Alas, the medal. Bridge the World, hahaha. Oh yeah, Japan team was really good looking, with nice spirits and all, spirits as in I can see the spirits from their actions and movements, not by shouting here and there. Hong Kong's spirit was great as well. Our country's team, to me was a cheat. Our country's team is the Navy!! Oh MY God. How could normal teams win the Navy right. DUH. And those Navys were, even the DJ said it, the noisiest team ever. Like baboons, shouting, climbing trees kind, orang utan. Haih, why can't their stop embarassing the country even once. Yes indeed, they won, but their actions really made the other countries think that we are uncivalized. Still i'm happy for my aunt, Hope they can go continue on their spirits and let the fire stays forever.

数回のお出かけ!

It is the middle of my holiday now, erm, i would say my feelings are neutral, went out few times, but in the same time something drastic hurt me a lot as well. I'll list out the outings i've went:

First outing: With Akiko for instrument shopping (the last hing i want to say actually)

Visited a few instrument shops, gachapons! Eat some lunch at Jusco - Bento set and Taiko. It was fun going out, get to work out a lot frm taiko playing. The whole journey was kinda rush, mainly just visiting all nice shops.

Second outing: With dad to KLCC - collect MPO tickets + watch Angels and Demons

Nice and fun day with dad. Angels and Demons was super great, its kind of breathtaking and i love just the way how they uses elements to spike up the movie. Dad and I ate some light nasi lemak in the food court, and we bought mini doughnuts for sis. Before we went home dad bought me a new purse ^_^..Purple colour, glad coz i finally get to use a proper purse again (lost my previous one, rather to say, stolen).

Third outing: With Steph and Akiko - KL Hilton and Pavillion

Went out late because Steph had to do some chores. Went to KL Hilton for nice sweets ^_^! Steph said the creme brulee there was great so we decided to have a try. Akiko ordered ginger pear, Steph creme brulee, and me Bread and Butter pudding. Steph's right, creme brulee there is really great! I love my bread and butter pudding as well, very warm and satisficing. Pass by KLCC, drop by Kinokuniya for a short while, left for Pavillion after few minutes. (must drop by there again ^_^). Watched Monster vs Alien in Pavillion. The movie was super funny, i kinda laugh through it, hahaha...
 
 

Our sweets in KL Hilton!
Fourth outing: With Steph
Main reason is to shop for Akiko's birthday gift. We went there for lunch, Amuleto. Steph said they renovate the place, so it looks nicer now. We order a tapas - Arabiatta mussels. The mussels tasted really really good and fresh. The sauce and mussels really blend together. We shared a cheese baked seafood rice, serving was big so we had to share. Besides the delicious rice, we even ordered Mojito, tasted so nice and mint. Steph said no wonder people say Mojito is for ladies..^_^. We shop around for a suitable gift, went to a puzzle shop, targeted one of the puzzle, decided if we couldn't find anything better we would take it. We turns LOTS of gachapons, Steph's luck was good, she managed to get 4 out of 5 of the bleach set...(we got 3 Kyourakus!),so we decided to give one to Akiko, so all three of us have kyouraku ^_^. My luck was bad, as usual, got a weird bread stuff (turn for my sis) and even got a totally white colourless figure! We had a good time playing taiko, steph was totally into it! I'm really glad about that. Got a haruhi revoltech as Akiko's birthday present. Before we went back, Steph bought me tokoyaki and we ate together...Really tons of fun going out with Steph!

Fifth outing: With mum, sis and Steph

Went to MPO with mum, sis and Steph, we booked the tickets long ago. We went to watch Haydn's The Surprise Symphony and The Miracle Symphony, plus Mozart's piano concerto in B flat major. Mum, sis and I reached a little late, because we went to the wrong road while going to the station. We had a super quick lunch in 1901 while meeting Steph there. Rush again, i wanted to buy the program booklet (to me it is really important to have to because it explains the whole piece, and the guide of listening). We managed to went into the hall on time.
First piece was The Surprise, i just love the second and the last movement, they really know how to play the second andante movement well (i can play it, yeah!!), haha, mum was asking why is that piece so familliar. Next was the piano concerto, the pianist was super super cool, Steph and I felt like he is doing a four hands!! He was even kind enough to play an encore piece, one from Beethoven. The miracle's last movement was the best and fastest. It was mum, sis and Steph's favourite..
  
Mum and sis felt tired during the orchestra, perhaps due to the late night sleep or they just feel bored in the middle. However they tried their best not to fall asleep, that makes them feel tortured coz trying to stay awake is the toughest thing to do. Apparently Steph seems a little tired as well, I was the only one being hyper after the show. To me overall the whole orchestra was nice and good. Would hope to catch one of the cool ones during this christmas (really good ones are in the year end).
Akiko came to my house a day before yesterday, with her new bass. It was fun to me, but the doom day come next. I would not want to repeat the whole thing again, don't have to keep tearing my wound open. Besides, mum said my blog always filled with gloomy posts. Well, i was just thinking, isn't life all dark? Of course there are also light, but where comes light when there's no darkness? Anyway, some stuffs are just too sad to be posted, i think it's even gloomier than my usual gloomy posts. So i'll do some favor for ppl who read, once in a while.
