(1) Here ends my Lovely 2010, and Welcome 2011~~

Today is the last day of Year 2010. As usual, I will be posting about my year 2010, how I lived through my ups and downs. Since it’s such a special year 2010, I will try to split this long year post into 10 posts, for everyone to view through the entire blog page ^_^.

Index:
1. Brief through the year (this post)
2. Comic Fiesta 2010
3. My 20th Birthday, and sis’s 14th Birthday
4. K-outings
5. Meet-ups with precious friends! ~
6. Performance and music?
7. Japanese & Bon Odori 2010
8. Fashion and shopping (wink wink)
9. Achievements…(+ failures of course >_<)
10. 2011 Goals and targets!!

Ever since I was 16, I had this fear of passing the year without doing anything that can give meaning and memories to my life. And thanks to these feelings I had, I have been trying my best to live my life to the fullest and I have not been regretting it much ever since. Of course there are some unhappiness throughout, but all of those will be over and my sun will be up again ^^. Who knows maybe my life will end in any second, so my target in life is to not have any regrets no matter when my life is to end.


I can say that I’ve had a really nice year, my lovely 2010, the year of Tiger. My year two and beginning of year three university had been normal as well. Lots of unusual and abnormal people I have met, but I’ve managed to grace through all of the hardships without any major problems. Have nearly failed my Year 2, but god gave me a miracle and helped me to pass them. Will be working harder for my final year, I would love to be able to graduate as soon as possible, and go charge in for my dreams! ~

Took my JLPT N1 exam, which I don’t think I could pass. But I still have to thank my sensei, Nakamura sensei for putting lots of effort in teaching me. I will definitely take the exam again even if I failed. After-all Japanese is still my favourite language to begin with.

My trip to Vietnam with mum is really good as well. I enjoyed eating those delicious foods from Vietnam, and shopping + adventure experience is cool as well. Love the dinner which I get to wear my yukata, if not I won’t get much chance wearing them, haha.

I have to thanks my parents as well for supporting me in my events, as well as the precious gift they gave me on my bday. A big thanks for my lovely friends as well, for taking the effort to have fun with me~.
And now to all readers, I shall continue writing the below 9 other posts. A very Happy New Year 2011 to ALL, enjoy your lovely year ahead!

(2) Comic Fiesta 2010 - 18 DECEMBER 2010

This is my first time attending CF and I gave myself a big challenge by performing 5 songs during CF 2010.

Song List:
1. Suzumiya Haruhi - God Knows
2. Hakuouki 2nd season - Maikaze TV size
3. Durarara!! - Uragiri no Yuuyake TV size
4. Angelic Layer - Ameagari TV size
5. K-ON!! - No! Thank you

All of the songs are fast pace songs except Ameagari, therefore it is quite a challenge for me as I’m better in singing slow songs. I always wanted challenge myself with fast songs that require stamina because I’m more of a rock person than a sentimental one, haha. One big mistake I made was to choose a guy song that is quite low in pitch, should not have done that but I still enjoyed that song. Made some mistakes here and there during the performance as well, will definitely remember my mistakes and will do much better for my next performances.


I’m lucky to have Akiko to spend her entire day with me listening to me practicing for CF. I’m glad that her group cosplay performance went well on that day. Really regretted that I did not stay long during CF, will definitely stay till the end for CF 2011. One thing about this year’s CF is that the venue is way too crowded, there are no spaces in between and everyone has to squeeze with each other. Might be hard for people to enjoy the stage performances and doujin stalls.
Nevertheless I’m still glad to be able to perform in such a great event, with the support of my precious family members.

(3) My 20th Birthday and Sis’s 14th Birthday – 17 DECEMBER 2010

A day before CF was sis and my birthday. I always thought that having the same birth date with my sis is a real blessing, we get to wish each other on the same day, exchange gift and all.. This year we get to celebrate it with our relatives from Ipoh and Singapore.

We had our first celebration on 12am on 17th December, which our parents gave us our first birthday wishes and gifts. We had really great gifts this year, I got a clover leaf diamond necklace and a new ipod classics, while sis got her Xbox and a new handphone. Many other small gifts were given to us, I won’t type them out one by one. Thanks to my 5th aunt for her vampire book and 4th aunt for the angpaos. Gift from friends and teachers were great as well, and I won’t forget about all the birthday wishes from fb and sms. A big thank you for all of you, will definitely not forget this big day of mine.

We had our birthday dinner celebration at night in Grand Dorsett Subang. Nice seafood buffet served, I hope everyone enjoyed their meals. Two cakes were given to sis and I, cheese cake for me while chocolate cake for sis. Had a great time with my aunts, uncle and cousins, and not to forget my lovely Parents who made these entire unforgettable event come true.

Thank you once again!! (Hugs and Kisses)

(4) K!! Outings

By saying ‘K’ outings, I mean my favourite Karaoke outings. I started my K fever around 2 years ago, with my first K outing with Sayoko. K with Sayoko is the most fun ever K sessions I have ever had, probably due to our same taste in songs. We always feel that 4 hours of K is never enough, we didn’t even have time to finish our lunch!

This year, I’ve had K outings with Sayoko, Akiko and June. It’s Akiko’s first Karaoke session, and I’m glad I’m the first who brought her there. Thanks to June for choosing to celebrate our birthdays in Neway, I really enjoyed it a lot, I hope she did enjoy her day as well (Oh the black forest cake we bought was really good ^_^).
This will be a really short post as compared to the rest >_<. But I still want to add this in because I really really do enjoy all my K sessions and I regard it as one of my greatest happiness in the year 2010, and I’m sure these outing will give me as much fun in the following years as well ^^.

(5) Meet-ups with precious friends! ~

In my year 2010, I met up with my old secondary friend, Tharani! Akiko, Steph, Tharani and I went for a short outing at IOI mall. Although we spent most of our time in Seoul Garden, we had tons of fun chatting and catching up for the time that we missed. I wish the three of us could always keep in touch with each other no matter how much time had passed >_<, I will never forget those times we had together during secondary.

More information about this outing here in the previous post:
> http://sakurazukaminori.blogspot.com/2010/09/blog-post_12.html

Another memorable outing I had is with EC, my dearest friend from A Levels. We went out before she left for UK to continue her studies in Pharmacy. We went Sunway and took Purikura; just like how we used to enjoy ourselves in picture taking, we enjoyed ourselves as much on that day. Had our lunch in the pancake house, remembered how we kept laughing for the smallest thing, and we keep loving our favourite anime, Skip Beat. How we used to talk about our love issues and about the guys we like; how we talk about cool guys in anime and in movies, and music. You have been such a great friend to me, and I really miss you loads ever since you went UK. Thanks for being with me, EC, we will definitely have more time to meet up once you graduate ^_^.


More about EC outing:
> http://sakurazukaminori.blogspot.com/2010/04/blog-post_18.html
One last outing that I would like to write about is my Tea Outing with Akiko, my love. On the last day of September, we went to Sunway to have our lunch/ tea at Winter Warmers, a lovely tea house with nice cozy environment. This is the 2nd tea house I know, my first tea house was the Teapot Café, which my dad always brought me there when I was small. I first know about Winter Warmers when I went out with Eunee for our Twilight outing. Really love all those different tea they served there, including milk tea and flower tea. However, sad to say, my last visit to Winter Warmers with Akiko will be the last time I will ever visit there, because for some reason they have close down their shop in Sunway.

Anyway, Akiko ordered Spaghetti Bolognese while I took Baked Seafood Macaroni with cheese for our lunch. And for our tea, Akiko took vanilla milk tea (if I’m not mistaken), while mine was some rose based tea. We enjoyed our small little chats about everything, and I’m sure Akiko as well hope that we could find another nice place for tea. Of course, we both had many small little outings throughout the year, so I hope we can meet more next year, our meetings are always so memorable >_

(6) Performance and Music?

I had a total of 3 performances throughout the year 2010:
1. C2AGE performance: a little info > http://sakurazukaminori.blogspot.com/2010/08/blog-post.html
2. Performance at Ya’e Charity Dance Party
3. Comic Fiesta 2010


Initially I had thought that I would only get one chance of performing this year, but somehow luck has bestowed me, I managed to get three chances of performing this year! Although they are some mistakes in every performance, I will definitely improve and charge in to my dreams! I will try my best to get more opportunities in year 2011.


About music, hmm, I guess I could say I’m still a huge fan of The GazettE. When I got the news that Ruki has hurt his vocal chord, I was really worried about him not being able to sing anymore. It’s the worst ever thing that could happen to a vocalist if his voice is taken away. Because of this, Sayoko and I made a promise to go Japan for their concert as soon as possible, preferably December 2011 for their tour final, if possible. I had been their fan for more than 7 years; they have given me hope and the drive to succeed in my dreams. Thanks to Sayoko for introducing them to me, I’m sure that one day we will get to see them performing live!


*Bought Shoxx magazine Jan 2011 issue that had them featured for 18 colour pages ^_^, my first gazette in shoxx that made my day again~. Not to forget my Film Bug II as well, hope Sacchin likes her copy.
I do wish to take up Diploma exam for my piano, if I pass my JLPT N1, so I’ll just keep waiting for the results. As for my guitar, I’ll just keep following my pace, hope to be able to play more of my favourite songs in the near future.

(7) Japanese & Bon Odori 2010

I was lucky to have my mum’s help to get Nakamura Sensei as my Japanese tutor for JLPT1. Nakamura sensei still remembered me, and we both had productive classes throughout my 2 months of preparation. This year’s JLPT new syllabus was very difficult; in fact it is even harder than the previous syllabus. I do not know exactly how am I gonna pass it, but no matter how I will definitely get the cert as it is really important to me.

Just a small announcement, I’m going to start up my Japanese tutoring class next year, I’ll pray that I succeed in this.
Bon Odori 2010 was fun, and tiring at the same time. This time instead of going with my family, I went with Akiko and Sayoko, right after C2AGE. Managed to dance with Sayoko, we had some nice curry rice and green tea ice, and had a great time sitting at the bench chatting with Sacchin ^^.
More info: http://sakurazukaminori.blogspot.com/2010/08/blog-post.html

I wish I could go for Bon Odori 2011 with Akiko and Sacchin again, this time I hope to be able to move around more often (did not do so because my leg was hurting after a long day =_=). Will be praying that Bon Odori 2011 will not be as crowded as the previous time.

(8) Fashion and shopping (wink wink)

Ok, if I really wanted to type this out properly, this blog post might never end, hahaha. Anyway, I’ve been saving up a bit to buy some fashion magazines; learned a lot of tips on how to improve myself on makeups and skin care ^^. As usual, I love to buy magazines around Oct-Dec because it’s Autumn-Winter season in Japan. I get to see many nice fur boots and coats (talk about coat, mum got me a really cool trench coat from MNG ^_^).

I’m always in my never ending throughout the year, I got myself different makeups, different bags and clothes of course. Just slightly few minutes ago I’m looking at some accessories sale in FB. I’m tempted to get myself some cute jewelry (for example the Daisy necklace from Dengeki Daisy). Have been targeting some stuffs from Bodyline jp as well, such as the fur leg warmers and boots.


Oh and year 2010 is the year when I got all the perfumes and body care stuffs that I wanted, thanks to mum of course. I bought myself a Bodyshop Cherry Blossom perfume, mum got me Estee Lauder’s Beautiful and Loccitanne’s Cherry Blossom perfume (comes with body lotion and shower gel ^^). Mum got me a whole set of Loccitanne hand cream as well (6 in a set) during the return flight from Vietnam.
I just hope one day a lump of cash will appear in front of me and I could buy stuffs that I love without thinking =_=.

(9) Achievements…(+ failures of course >_<)

To sum up my entire year, my achievements are:
1. 3 performances
2. Finish my Year 2 Uni
3. Went to as much events as I could attend
4. Took JLPT
5. Supported GazettE ^^
6. Went to the cinema alone
7. Didn’t cause any trouble at uni
8. Shopping spree was a success =_=
9. Recorded many songs and started up my vocal cover blog


Failures:
1. Failed some subjects during the first attempt of my Year 2 finals
2. Did not manage to force myself for sports even though I did thought about it
3. I can’t really think of any more failures, but that doesn’t mean I’m good and all, I just can’t think of it as of now, so just let me get by this time >_<.

(10) And FINALLY, the LAST post: Year 2011 Goals and Targets!!

1. Perform more than 3 performances

..

Was having a massive "blog-deleted" & "email-hacked" situation, that made me lost all my urges to blog. Initially thought of blogging some of my nice outings (before those stuff happened), but I just lost it like that. Anyway, am here now because I (sorta) completed my AIC topic choice form, which I was really dragging and avoiding to look at it. Am having a 2 weeks break, doesn't feel like a break at all, first week was attending WCOA(World Congress of Accountants) and MoneyTree Workshop. This week I have my japanese to deal with as well.
JLPT is real soon, and I'm really worried about it. I keep having the feeling that I won't be lucky as to pass it this time. Am so scared that I don't know how to tell anyone, so I decided to type it here. I somehow looking forward for days to pass, but I know very well I needed more time to prepare. School days have been hectic as well, I can't last through the night as well as how i did usually.

One good news I'm having is that I managed to get a place on stage during CF. I definitely needed some K session, but I'm really lacking of people to go with me. Therefore everytime I think back, loneliness always strike me. I don't have pals where I can go shop with as much as I want, I don't have anyone with me who can enjoy with me all the fun I have, miserable indeed.
I don't feel like typing anything now, thanks to blogger. Bye.

二十歳前、最後の秋

I'm going through my last Autumn of teenage. Hmm, what can I say about it. Yup!~ Plans plans and more plans! Unavoidable my 3rd year uni is starting real soon, will try my best not to feel the same way as how I went through my year two. Gotta work hard for my JLPT N1 as well, syllabus has gone way much tougher than the previous one, really thanks to my parents for supporting me, as well as Nakamura sensei for putting up with my stupidity. It would be spring again once I passed the exam.

Another thing about Autumn, is of course, Fashion! Cosmetics! *And Akiko!! LOL*. I just adore Autumn fashion, the furs and boots and socks and everything else! Autumn and Winter is the only two seasons which I wouldn't mind buying those expansive Japan/Taiwan fashion mags. Would rather save on Summer, Spring depends on whether the mag is worth buying. So obviously i'm spending my days Staring at my mags (mum bought them for me, thanks~), learning new makeup techniques, and yes omg my wishlist is getting longer and longer (writing on my little notebook).
So, any Autumn wishes? Yup, enjoy every part of my life no matter how sucky it is! (yes i really enjoy vampire stuffs these days, it just reminds me of it when i say the work 'suck').
 
 
*Oh yes, I really love my k-on vox amplug, thanks Kent for helping me buying it. Had a real good time playing my guitar since then^^)
Bye now~

~11 Sept 2010~
After the outing with AkikoStephTharani on Thursday, my mind is floating around in Daiso, coz you know, the sideeffect after controlling so much not to buy stuff and ended up wanted it =_=. So, on Sat, mum wanted to visit the small stall in IOI mall for nice cottage design carpets. We bought 2 last week to try out see if it matches our house, and yes it fits really nice, very sweet and lovely. I've always been in love with cottage designs (I have a bodyline skirt that has this rose design as well, muahaha.)

Reached IOI, bought 4 carpets (Each design 2). Took a look at the hat stall, but weirdly, the gold beret that fits me well on Thursday does not look good on sat, whats the reason?(Akiko, tell me why, sob sob). Anyway I did stopped by Daiso, got everything I wanted, except the bento box and wrap. Love the pink towel hairband, very useful during makeup and mask.
 
 
Mum got a pair of shorts in Elle, I got 3 blouse here and there (one of them is on Vior wallpaper^^). Mum and I got ourselves some nice nail polish (more colours) from Skin Food, umm...we actually wanted to use their free lip gloss sample coz our lips are dry, ahem. Oh yeah, and Mina mag from popular, Will not buy this mag again, it's the worst mag out of all that i've bought (japanese taiwan fashion mag).



Tadaa~

Hope to keep blogging and win my lazyness to blog. Oh yeah, hair salon and nail parlor anyone? Wanted to go for them end of the year.. Oh gosh i've been spending around 2 hours for this short post, am really multitasking, time for lunch, see ya~

懐かしい高校の友

~9th Sept 2010~
After C.C.'s farewell on 3rd Sept, mum kinda took some leave throughout the following week (except on thursday). And yes, i went out  with Akiko, Steph and Tharani to go back to old high school times, outing venue- IOI mall Puchong.
 
 
I woke up around 9.30am to start preparing (light makeup and all), trying my best not to make a mess using the liquid eye liner >_>. Done all preperation around an hour later; while waiting for them (Steph and Akiko said that they will be a little late), I tried to go online but fail, network prob i guess. So I had to spend time playing the piano.
After Steph pick me up with her blue car, 3 of us went to meet Tharani in IOI mall (mcd). Tharani has changed a lot since I met her around more than 4 years ago. More feminine and prettier. Maybe I was the one remain too unchanged, same old me? haha.
 
 
Decided to skip movie and bowling due to time constraint, need more time to sit down and chat for lunch, gotta catch up with my old friend. We went lunch at Seoul Garden, one restaurant that I would not step in normally. It's a half grill and steamboat buffet restaurant, tons of marinated raw meat to choose from, too bad there's no pork. My favourite is the fish, which i took around more than a full plate. Wish I could go with some one again, or Da Sa Rang at ss15, need barbecue partner, Steph?

 

What a clean grill plate. I kinda pity the one who has to wash this grill plate later, it's been in terrible condition after we used it =_=. Well we kinda make good use of it...

Variaties of sauce

FOUR hands cooking, boiling and grilling

After lunch we hang out a little around the mall, walked in Padini and saw a black polka handbag which I love, Akiko liked the red striped one more. Stucked in Daiso for the longest time, I've been fighting really hard don't know whether to buy or not to buy some items (Pink ichigo bento box, ichigo bento wrap, chopsticks, pumpkin soup pack, towel hair band, and postcards), wow, after I listed it down i knew i really went through quite some fight, coz in the end i did not manage to get anything, hahaha.


Akiko got herself animal spoon fork set to match with her bento box, she kindly gave me a pink pair to encourage me to get my pink bento, haha, will really go get it when i have the chance. While we stuck at Daiso, Tharani went to popular bookstore to get some papers. Yeah, when she is done we are not even out daiso =_=.

Random shoots at the staircase and carousel:

 

Cropped by Tharani from one of her pics, she said I looked sweet in this.

Group pics, hope we keep in touch forever~

We dropped by J.CO before going back home as Steph wanna bring home some doughnuts for her bro. Akiko, Tharani and I got ourselves each a doughnut as well. I got Mona Pisa for myself, first time eating a not-sweet-doughnut. It has strong cheese tomato pizza flavor, gonna try more of those salty flavors next time.

 
Mine is the only pinkish orange-ish, with tomato sauce and sausage around ^^


Definitely gonna take that again~ Gotta thanks to you guys for giving me a fun day, hope to see you guys again, soon. Akiko bts trip, Steph korean food outing? Anyway, love all the friends who always asks me out, love to spend time with you guys. I shall end the post now, kinda late, nitey~

2010年9月6日月曜日

...

I'm back from everything. Yes, previous weekend to my mum's hometown, and this weekend as well. Was trying to force myself to update something, at least something so that i won't neglect my blog. Oh and a HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Steph, may you be happy for this year as well.
Went out with C.C. and Shirley for C.C.'s farewell, she's going to UK for the prog. We had some little tiny fun in the car, skipping the movie after an hour inside, a nice lunch, and a really short shopping. But who cares, fun can exist in anywhere, if you know how to find it.
Now, during my trip to mum's hometown, I had lots of thoughts of wanting to keep a journal. Partly due to watching vampire diaries, one of my current vamp heat stuff. Love watching and reading them, but at the same time realises that i don't think I will be able to find a bf anymore due to all those perfect cool vamps lovingly showing their fangs around in fantasies.
 
 
Am currently chewing my newly bought, Cheddar Cheese Crispies, I named it my fav snack for now, wonder will i be able to buy it again from Marks and Spencer. BYE.

まだ進める。。

Am having referral exam now. Okay, I know I've been slacking off really too much during my Year 2, oh well, can't do anything about it now other than force pass all the subs. Resolve of working hard on Year 3 can only be done after I get through this right? However this one now is not as easy, i can't believe i'm actually praying hard everyday. But one thing, after telling my parents about it, I actually felt better. Kinda stupid of me to hide it all to myself for around 1 month. Felt really bad and suffering, can't even enjoy well. Served me right deshou...
Anyway, not just the exams, I've been missing some events as well, Asaban due to prayers, and might not even get to sing in Animangaki. No K partner here with me (Sacchin!!!Come back!!!)..Super itching to sing!!! Oh and can't wait to go out with all my friends, thanks for waiting for me~
Lots of planning ahead~ Seeya!

2010年8月16日月曜日

あ。ちょっと長すぎるんですね。。

Opps, it has been WAY too long since i last updated, more than 2 months!! Well, I can say i'm half enjoying and half suffering during this summer break, am trying to balance it out not to be engulfed by the sadness, sorrow and uncertainty, coz i have to deal with it mostly alone, yes, it's frustrating. Anyway, things have been almost the same, i stayed at home cooking lunch for sis before her school, go out meet some friends once in a while...I really regretted that i can't celebrate this final holiday for me as much as last year, and it's all my fault. But still I'm trying my best, so I hope all my friends would wait for me, I'll be fine real soon.
Oh and erm, I went for a performance in C2AGE at Tropicana City Mall 17th July 2010. I went to sign-up for the solo singing performance, mainly to show myself whether I love the stage and singing. It ended up really well, yes, I really love the stage and singing, I love the entire practising moments, and every seconds before and after stage. The satisfaction of having fun on stage and sing, and people looking and listening to my voice, was so great that i almost choked in my happiness. Thanks to my mum for sending me, Akiko and Sayoko there, and thanks to mum for supporting me on stage (and the rehearsal the day before).
 
 
And I really have to thanks Akiko and Sayoko for supporting me in my singing, you both listen to me makes me really happy >_<..So much that I can say i have no regrets at all in joining this event. Am really happy when someone told me that my singing was nice after stage, even though it's just a short encounter, it's really enough. Organisers were kind to me as well, encouraging me, and clap, say thanks to me after everything, I should say a thousand thank you for everyone for a wonderful day they have given to me, I'll never forget it.
After stage, akiko, sayoko and I went to Ninja Jones for lunch, PORK burger!!! Gosh I love them so much I really wanna go there again!!! It makes me happy enough knowing I'm eating Pork burgers in this country. I chose oriental sauce, which fit really smoothly with the meat, Akiko took black pepper, while Sacchin took sweet and sour sauce...All of them were great from what they said. After that Akiko and I went to change to our yukata for Bon odori (Sacchin is photoshooting with her friends), yes, bon odori 2010 is on the same day. We were taking bus shuttle from tropicana mall to bon odori.
Yukata changing is still time consuming even after practise. We practically have no time to help out each other. Oh and it's my first tme tying a curl bun (learnt it from youtube), and it works!! Akiko tied her hair prettily with braids at the side. We rushed to the bus and went to BO...At BO me and sacchin spent most of the time sitting down at benches, due to the tiredness, while akiko walked around with her friends sometimes, to take shoots of yukatas.
Sacchin and I danced for the last round and yes it was real fun, my first time~. Finding the bus at night is not really a great idea, plus phone not working for us and we are walking with geta. After we reached the bus, there's one fine lady got lost due to her stupidity of wanting to change bus and sit with her friends, our bus took around an hour to move. I kinda lost my temper a bit, which i regretted showing it a bit to sachhin and akiko (all due to my sis not picking up phone, she said she din't get the calls), hhahaa, really my fault for being not used to show everything up. So I hope they would forgive my temper that slightly leaked out of my usual self, hahaha.

Overall it was a great day, tiring, a little scary, but loads of fun!! Thanks to akiko and sacchin for giving me such a great day ^^ Hope to go out like this with you guys again~

2010年6月5日土曜日

うわああ。。ちょっと長いポストね~

Okay...I've been really slacking off from blogging, feeling super lazy. Was using exam as my reason for not blogging, but nah, just lazy. Will speed up my backlog posts now:


There's few stuffs happenning, I've forgotten about the sequence and the dates, so i'll just lump them together, forgive me for the short description, I'll just briefly go through >_<..
(Will be really random)
1. One night when sis is doing her caligraphy homework, I was bored of studying and went to see her practice, unable to stand the fun (I love writing caligraphy), I took the brush and wrote her practice for her, haha.. After a while, perhaps due to the laughters and chitchats, mum came out and join the fun (winks~)
 
 
So i asked her to write a line of poem from a TVB drama series:


What a beautiful writing~ I wish I could write as nice, hahaha...Oh the big words at the right side (with boxes to guide), is my writings >_<, it's not too bad, I hope..

2. Mum went to service her car in Toyota service centre..I went and wait together with mum after my chinese harp lesson. Here comes the fun part, there's a coffee launge where there's free coffee, teas or other drinks, and there's this really nice munchy biscuits!! (cheese cream flavor i think..), I took around 6 packets, a bit 'paiseh', but still, it's delicious!!
Oh yeah and the toyota paper cup for the drinks is CUTE~




3. I finally went to try out Cone Pizza at Puchong jaya! Am really happy and excited. Went there twice in a week, yeah, twice a row, hahaha, both times with mum. Dad and sis haven't tried it yet, they were quite reluctant to try at first, but i guess they are quite fine by now..


Had their cone pizza for my first attempt, Meat Mania flavor ^^, It was just normal to me, quite expansive since it's small. Thanks to Akiko's reminder, I did ask for extra cheese.
Mum took carbonara fettucine for both days, I took it on my second day as well, it was quite a nice experience, but I still prefer the pasta in Italiannies. Still it's not bad for a small restaurant like this.


Quite a satisfactory plate of fettucine carbonara, I don't mind going there again ^_^~

4. Went to the cake house on the same row of cone pizza after my meals, bought 4 different cakes:
Strawberry sponge, Green tea, Marble cheese, and Choc..


 
 
 

The choc cake is for our maid, she left us on the 19th of May 2010, she might be back after a year, but that's up to her..Miss her a little >_<..

5. Ok, so my maid left, and I cooked and prepare simple lunches for sis before she goes to school ^^. One of the days, Akiko came by and helped me on the meals, she cooked nice omelette meals for me and sis, Thanks soooo much, Akiko~
 

Looks nice isn't it? The dark colour liquid thingy is japanese curry from 100yen, some instant pack that is really easy to cook ^^.
A week after, Akiko came to drop by for lunch as well as pass me the stuff that mum and I ordered, we made lunch together. Our first attempt of hash browns~


It was hard to flip it in the pot, so we tried baking it a while >_<, with cheese, hahaa. It was a nice experience, I will definitely try and make it again~

6. Went to a wedding dinner in Teluk Intan, for someone related to my mum. It was quite boring there, nothing fun and hapenning, unlike other wedding dinners I attend before. But it was fine at least because cousins are there, and our closer relatives were fun to be with ^^.


~My Family~
 
Cousins and us ^^

That's all for now, am gonna post another backlog post when i'm free!

今日は?火曜日です!

It's Tuesday today! Am back to post for my lunch (looks like this is turning into a food blog =_=), but posting about food is just fun!!
Today's menu is.... Tomato and Cheese Fried Rice with sunny side up egg!!
 
 


It tasted SUPERB!! Oh man, I really should have made this long long time ago. I'm a super big fan of tomato fried rice, but why didn't I thought of cooking it at home??
Am really happy with today's food ^^

Might be doing the butter and cheese fish fillet bun again for today's tea...Cheese everyday, i'm really gonna get fat soon. Gonna make sure I stay at this weight, wanna be those ppl that won't get fat even after eating >_<.

月曜日は?

First day of study break (Monday), made Macaroni and cheese, using the instant one i got. Added carrot this time, wanted to make it look more colourful =_=.

 
 
 

Haha, from cooking till the finish product! Added extra milk and cheese.. Steps are just too easy, hahaha...
Had Mayo Fish Fillet bun topped with butter and cheese for tea:


Melted cheese are always the best >_<. Wonder what am I gonna eat for the next day..

買い物はやっぱり最高!

Went out for shopping on Sunday, initially to get my M.A.C. Viva Glam Lady Gaga lipstick ^_^. And yes I got it!! It's quite worth it to me, the colour is sweet and it has the signature on the rouge itself, and the box~ Am indulging myself just by looking it. 
 
 
It started when i first saw a strip from my chinese newspaper giving reviews about the rouge:



And what happen? I went though fuss trying to get it, hahaa.
*warning, 6 rouge pictures ahead..


 
 
 
 
 

Haha, forgive me for 'syoksendiri-ing' by taking pictures of my rouge. It's too pretty, haha..my 'killer' rouge. The shape looks like a bullet to me, black bullet. Gonna use it along with a gloss, the pink is really bright.
 
 
Oh yeah, mum bought a new watch while we went to change dad's watch strap. New black watch, pretty! We shopped a lot, had a nice meal in Manhattan Fish Market, and i bought some new clothes as well!! Mum bought me a pair of black pants and two singlets from Mango (MNG), she got herself the exact same thing as well. I was usually not a fan of MNG, but now it seems that I got a little addicted to it. Somehow it gaves me some creative ideas on how to use their clothes for punk rockish style >_< (I got a pair of black jeans from there as well, yesh). And not to forget my new pink-white strip knitted cardigan, they look really cute to me, bright pink again.

Am really gonna go search for chains and more chains. Waiting for Sacchin to be back for my piercing!! Shoes and accessories!! We are really gonna be busier than PM, Sacchin =_=.
Study Break ahead. Dead.

鮭。。おいしい!!

Last post before I go to bed (this time for REAL), just really wanted to finish blog about this week's food posts.

The usual koey teow soup stall for dad and my saturday breakfast did not open, so we had to take a big turn to search for breakfast near my chinese harp class centre. And, dad told me his friend recommended a place to eat 'fish head noodles', using Salmon and Cod as their main ingrediants. Dad was not a fan of salmon, but we just decided to try it out since we are out of time (class gonna start!)
And...the noodles turned up to be good! To me, at least. The milk added was just nice, and the fried onions just made it perfect ^^. Love the salmons and cods, they are really fresh. Quite a good quality fish to be cooked in a bowl of noodles, haha.


Ahhh~~ By just looking at the pic makes me wanna go there again. The chilli was great as well ^^. After I came back from harp class, I recommended it to my mum, so I went there for a second time to accompany mum and sis for their breakfast (I just sat there for a drink). Oh yeah not to forget they serve salmon sashimi as well, which I had it with mum. Not a bad experience~
Wish to go there another day, although its costly for a bowl of noodle.
And yes. I'm a fan of Salmon and Cod ^^.

朝飯??

Posting this before I go sleep. Realised i took some food pics from my hp cam. I went to try the new stall open in my uni with a friend on thursday, some of you might heard of that shop name: Dessert Bar.
 
 
It was still morning when we went there, so I took a 'cowboy breakfast set' as my early lunch (initially thought of just having a drink with my friend). We shared an extra dessert together, namely Mille Crepe. Took it coz it looks the most special among all other dessert.



My Cowboy breakfast set, a footlong sausage (tasted really VERY normal), a sunny side up egg, and some salad with really nice dressing. Looks quite pretty although it does not really taste good. Come with a super diluted coffee, which I changed it to hot chocolate drink, but still, it's really diluted.



Me and Shirley's Mille Crepe. She doesn't really like the taste of the cream; to me it was just edible, nothing more, they could have make it better. It tasted like bread and butter pudding, only it has many many layers, and it's not served warm (and thick).


See here, total of 25 layers. Should have taken some other better desserts =_=.
Anyway, Shirley told me that their lunch set was far better and more worth for money. Gonna try that out the next day i'm going there (first day of exam).
*Exam is soon, yeah I know*
Wish for more lovely foods. 'Chow' time for this post~
