Guest Night @ Guinness Anchor Berhad

29th August 2014

I know right, this is some seriously long backdated post. I have cleared many of my draft posts and left around less than 10 to be completed real soon i hope! There's just too much things happening during year end usually.
 
So Adam and I got invited to Sayoko company's guest night at GAB. Twice every month, GAB staff could bring 2 guests each to enjoy the night at The Tavern, a pub in GAB ^^. It was one of the most memorable nights I had! Drinking all night trying out new beers (new to me but maybe not to the market lol). I have to say I learnt a lot about beers and GAB! At least I took note to differenciate their producers and distributors now.
 
Adam was kinda late that day, he was working in another area but took the trouble to pick me from home, how kind! Thanks a lot Adam. We went straight to the bar for some snacks and beers of course!!
 
Here's Adam ordering some drinks for us. We took Smirnoff Ice, Kirin and Strongbow for starters ^^.


 
Kirin was newly launched that time. There's new Strongbow flavors now, I wish to be able to go there again, this time with Erin included, it's gonna be so fun! But Sacchin has to borrow another staff guest quota though.
 
We took Tiger Radler as well! I personally like Smirnoff Ice (I had this daily when I was in Japan lol, strong supporter ya Sacchin), Radler could be a nice chiller, and Heineiken Ice. Strongbow was okay to me, and I don't really like kirin haha.


What else to do other than drinking and chatting? Tons of selfies and pictures of course!! Too bad the lighting is dim, so be prepared for slightly blurred cellphone pictures haha.
 


Sacchin's with her favourite Smirnoff Ice.
And the guy who is in love with my Casio selfie camera LOL. It was fun to see how many selfies he took. Example of him in action:
 


Results from my selfie cam:
 


I think he took quite good selfies! I'm better when others helping me to take haha. Lots of practice needed~
 
More pictures:
 



It was always jokes and more jokes, laughter and more laughter hanging out with them~ These are some of the stuff we did, eating too much snacks and then 'complaining' the chips:



Okay I tried, but failed haha.
 


Anyway really thanks a lot to Sacchin for inviting!! I'm already looking forward for the time we will be spending together soon~ I'm glad and fortunate to have such good friends around me ><.
 


Lastly a Groupfie~

Lolita Photoshoot (behind the scene) + Sayoko hangout

26 July 2014

Two days outing with Sayoko~
Went Loudspeaker Subang with her on Saturday, omg the wide selection of Japanese songs!! We went overly high singing all the jrock songs haha. They even have some older jrock songs like Yokan by Dir en Grey omg. Yokan was probably the first few jrock songs I've heard when I'm young. Sayoko said the puchong branch has Preserved Rose and No pain no game though. GAH loudspeaker is really the best! It's cheap, their food is nice!!!(Redbox sucks badly on their food), and cool song selection~


Sacchin took this to show Erin hahaha. To make her jealous. So many Uta-Pri songs lol. I really like Savior of songs!!! And I started practicing on some screamo after the K session haha, really wish to perform Liar (One ok Rock) one day with my beloved band~

27 July 2014
 
Sunday - I had a Lolita photoshoot by Feito, Ikmal and Rais (who only joined us during the last hour of the shoot).
 
Thanks a lottttt to Sayoko who actually accompanied me throughout the shoot, and even spent her day with me choosing books (to spend off my 1Mbook vouchers) at Kinokuniya. I'm sure she was pretty tired and probably bored but she didn't complain and was with me the whole day, thanks soooo much. 

 
Sis took this in the car. I really like this pic~ Too bad it's a little dark.
 
 
Brighter version. I like the darker one though haha, my expressions were better.
 
I'm proud of my lolita outfit by the way! This was my first complete Lolita outfit, Navy blue poker x rose print JSK, match with lace white blouse. I was quite worried that it doesn't suit me, or even worse, lolita fashion doesn't suit me. But it went well and I'm so happy I can pull off this look! I'm so looking forward to add more accessories and complete more themes for this outfit. And once I'm done I could move forward to try out other lolitas ^^.
 
The shoot this time was at Tokyo Pastry, Avenue K. The owner was nice enough to let us move around the decorations and furnitures for the shoot ^^. Although I do feel bad about occupying their space though, for around 4 hours (10am-2pm).
 
I'm gonna upload some behind the scene pictures for this post, and probably do a proper blog post later when I got the entire set of photos (gonna post the ones I really like ^^). Once again huge thanks to the photographers Feito, Ikmal and Rais for putting up with my inexperience in posing. I did my best during the shoot though~
 
Okay here comes the omake/sneek peek photos, enjoy~ **All photos posted here credited to AIO photography.


 
The pretty looking tea set. Only for viewing purpose though, not recommended for eating haha.


Ahh~



 
Playing with some antique camera ^^.
 


My mum say I look like minion in this picture =___=.

 
One of my favourite~


 
Lol zettai ryouiki.

 
Sacchin in the photo! They all said she's at her director seat. I wonder what trigger my laughter haha.
 
Three actual pics taken by AIO Photography (Ikmal):




I love all three! Realise that there's more sitting poses than standing, so there isn't many photos that showcase my entire dress =___=. I'm definitely doing another shoot (when my outfit is complete) in the future!! I'm pretty satisfied with the photos this round, there's around 10+ photos that are usable! Usually out of the entire shoot I only like around 2-3 photos max haha.
 
The photographers were kind enough to offer me more shoots in the future~ For example my music themed photo shoot (with different instruments), and traditional clothes (my favourite qipao), or fashion shoots ^^. Really looking forward for it to happen!



Sacchin wore a navy sailor themed blouse so our outfit kinda matched! We should have taken full both OOTD pictures though.
 

Melur and thyme

We rushed for lunch right after the shoot as the food in Tokyo Pastry is just '...'. Wanted to try out Harrod's Cafe initially but Sacchin prefer something heavier for lunch. We ended up with Melur and Thyme just opposite Harrods. 



Sacchin's order was great! Carbonara fettucine with duck meat. The pasta was creamy and the duck was tender, I regretted so much for not ordering.
 


My beef foie gras burger. Meh...Not nice at all. The beef patty was dry, foie gras not nice also sobssss, and these were not cheap kay, wasted my money. Should have ordered pasta instead.
 
We spent around 2 hours in the restaurant, eating and of course, taking selfies haha. We took loads of them~ Not gonna post all la, quite impossible and you guys will be bored seeing us with the same poses over and over again.
 






Ok. Lima cukup.
 
We went to shop for books at Kinokuniya after our meal. Spent quite some time here coz I can't just make up my mind on what books to buy. Sacchin had to walk round and round the bookstore with me, soooo sorry!!
 
Ended up with two photography/modelling books, two business japanese books and one Zipper magazine ^^.



And then it's going home time sobs. Time always seems to go faster when we are having fun. We did shop a bit at Avenue K before taking the train back though. And Sacchin bought her Old Chang Kee finger food as dinner.
Thanks thanks thanks for everyone, family and friends for always putting up with my activities and spent their precious time with and for me~

"K Missing Kings" - Malaysia Worldwide Premiere

5th July 2014

Sneaked out from my horrible quarter closing to have some fun! There was only one day premiere screening for "K Missing Kings" movie initially (who would have known that due to popularity they actually extended the movie for normal screening =___=; If I had known this I wouldn't have to rush like mad). I'm glad to have went for the premiere screening though, the movie was good and everyone in the hall were anime fans so watching the movie together was pretty fun ^^.
 
I left work around 12pm to have lunch with my colleague from other department; we had dim sum as lunch on that day. I still prefer my favourite dim sum place in puchong. Went to buy Garnett popcorn after lunch. That was my first time buying this 'branded' popcorn hahha, and true enough they tasted really good! And most importantly my sister likes them, purposely bought it for our movie session later.

 
Bought the Chicago Mix for our first try -- Caramel Popcorn+Cheese Popcorn. Gotta try the butter flavoured one next~
 
I went back home to pick up my sis and travelled to MidValley around 3pm. We rushed a little coz we really wanted to get "K" freebies. Just tissue paper and notebook la, but free stuff is always cool. Thanks a lot to Erin for helping us to get the tickets on time, the tickets got sold out pretty fast! After collecting our tickets and freebies, sis and I went to have tea at Pastis Cafe.



Movie tickets, "K" tissue paper and notebook haha.



Our three-tier tea set. The set was more expensive than TWG tea set, and obviously less quality. Sad la, I think only the creme brulee is okay and quiche being slightly edible T____T. Heart pain spending so much money on this tea set. But this set is still not as bad as the ones I had at Betjeman & Barton, that one was horrifying.
 
 
Sis taking pictures of the tea set.

 
While me doing the same.


Photo credits to my sis.


Dearest sister with our movie freebies. Spending time with her just feels great.


After our tea session at Pastis Cafe, we wanted to have something nicer to feel happy, so we went "N" Brew for some liquid nitrogen icecream. Sis was kinda unlucky that day, the flavor she took tasted really sweet and heavy so she sorta having phobia for liquid nitrogen icecream now hahaha.


Mine was nice though! Gula Melacca and Avocado ^^ Very unique indeed.
 
After that we went Ninja Joe to meetup with Sayoko and Erin, they were having dinner there. Obviously sis and I were too full for dinner after all the teas and snacks. And then...it's movie time!!!

 
The first hour of the movie was a refresh about what happened in the first season anime series, which is pretty good coz I've forgotten most of the stuffs hahahaa. And obviously I cried when Suoh died, and I LOVEEEE the Munakata x Suoh scenes. My sis was screaming about the Totsuki Tatara death scene haha. My favourite is still Munakata Reishi, so whenever he's out I'll go fan-girling gao gao.
 
Second half of the movie is about the rest of the guys finding the new king, and also the silver king etc. The movie ended as a clift hanger though!!!!! It was supposed to be the prelude of the new season I guess. Anyway don't want to give too much spoilers here. I would download the movie when I'm free~ Can watch some interesting scenes over and over again (the ninja scene - people who watch the movie will know hehe).
