Skater's :)

Wednesday, 26 June 2013
Heyy! :) Ahhh I'm here again, after some time (recent posts I'm always like this~).

Well, the recent keyword is HAZE (in Malaysia and Singapore). Everywhere is blur *where are you O.O*, smokey and irritating *blink blink, sniffs sniffs and clear throats*. Luckily it rained yesterday and today, so the API (Air Pollution Index) had gone down! :D Artificial rain joins in though, but it's okay as everyone is praying for rain ^^

I know this has been repeated for so many times in social networks but I'm still gonna say it here, do take care of yourselves kay? Shall not mention how you should take care of yourself, you know it already and probably had been feeling so ughhh listening to people reminding over and over again *true much? :)*

Still fyi (in case you're unaware of this hehee :p), KFC is 40 years old this year! :D and here's one promo that I think everyone should go for ^^



Unless you've owned a Thermos already and have been using it, like me :)

You can get a Thermos in a much cheaper price, and I do believe in Thermos' quality. Friends who grabbed it already have been saying the quality is good!

So YOU! get it maybe? :) especially girls, cuz keeping your body warm is very important. (not mentioning period cramps, not so good complexion on the face *气色~*...)

Getting yourself hydrated is so important as the haze causes our skin to dehydrate :(  and it says 'while stocks last', so faster grab if still available! :D


Okay enough of the haze, let's feel cooling with the word 'SKATER' :) *imagine the ice skating rink~~~*

In love with skater's dress and skirt recently, as it can smartly cover the body parts I'm not really satisfied with, yeah the hips and the thighs. Then you all thought I'm quite slim, hehee ^^

Grabbed two skater's skirts from Cotton On, and love the quality of the skirts :) RM59 and I bought them during the 'Buy One and Get the Second Piece 1/2 price' promo :D

Took some pictures to record down my moments with skater's skirt, hehee ^^ credits to mummy :)

Top and floral sandals from Cartino Sonea (Kluang Mall in Kluang, Johor)

Whoops~ hehee :P

It's June now, and durian season is creeping in :)
Hadn't had any durians yet for now, only had this durian kuih from Malacca :P

I have thick lips, HAHAHAHA :D


That's all for now :)

Nak Won Korea BBQ :)

Monday, 15 April 2013
Backkkkk. :P Didn't have the urge to blog for the past month, don't ask me why. Although I've been logging into Blogger, then sign out. Yeah without updating anything.

Well, here I am again! :D

Had such crave for Korean food, but the family lost interest completely after trying out the restaurant in Desa ParkCity. It really wasn't a good experience, so I didn't force them to bring me for Korean food.


Okay you know what I'm gonna blog next, the title had whispered to you. :)


Yeps Korean food for Saturday's dinner ^^ had my cousin to bring us there, along with another cousin as well, it's a family dinner, extended one hahahaha.

Cousin brought us to Nak Won Korea BBQ, one of the restaurants located in Korean Town, Ampang.

Korean Town ; 
There are hotels, salons, mini markets etc. etc., 
all opened by Koreans according to you my cousin :P


Back to the restaurant. Ambiance is okay, but the food is good good good! ^^

*Hadn't been using my blackie for quite some time, so if the photos didn't match your expectations, sorry for that. Blackie is the DSLR fyi :P*


Since it says BBQ in the name, of course we won't miss out the Korea BBQ! :)

The must haves.
The lettuce to make the wrap with the meat, some sauces, oil, green chili and garlic.


Get the smoke away, long long filter~
(can be pulled up or down ^^)

Oh and the waiters will barbecue the meat for the customers, so we can eat as the meat is being cooked.
They serve when it's hot, and we eat when it's hot! 
Golden rule hahahaha :D


There are many choices such as beef, pork and even seafood. 
Ordered all beef as it has less fat, healthier approach hehee ^^

They have the original and marinated. 

Original one is good! Juicy and chewy :)

If you like the taste of char siew (roasted pork), 
well go for the marinated ones, the same sweet taste hehee.

Ox tongue, haha.
First try, not bad~

Not forgetting the variety of side dishes.
Fish cakes are good hahaha. And surprisingly steamed egg is on the table.


Some good food besides BBQ :)

Bibimbap!
Great flavors :)

Ginseng chicken soup
Love it! And they have rice stuffed in the chicken^^

Kimchi pancake :)
It turned out to be redder in the photo than it really is.
But it's really good :p


Tteokbokki!
Best dish of the night :)
Love the spiciness, and chewy. Not forgetting the vegetables and glass noodles inside.
Big love! <3


Not forgetting the drinks we had.

Brown rice green tea :)
Very nice aroma from the brown rice~

Not forgetting the love from the lady boss,
she treated us Rice Wine for free!

Smooth down the throat hehee ^^


Shots of the little glass we have our rice wine in :)

Sealed the meal with sweet barley water and watermelon.

Didn't snap shot of watermelon, so imagine it in your mind.
Red color, green skin.. :P



Overall great good food! 
Service is okay, just that some waiters don't get what we're talking about.

Remember to come early or make a reservation, as the restaurant is filled up with diners gradually after 7pm. :)

Lefty :)

Saturday, 16 March 2013
means left-hander, or easier, a person who writes with his or her left hand.

I'm a lefty. :)

For many years I was the only lefty in the class.
Still remember back in time, everyone was watching me like an alien, including teachers, because lefty is not the majority.

There's a teacher who labelled me OKU (Orang Kurang Upaya, disabled person), but I labelled myself special, hehee I have what u don't ^^

Thank God that, I get to know more and more who is lefty as I grow, and the majority gets used to the existence of this minority too :D

Not going to go on about the lefty life of mine, but to talk about my lefty friend :)

Somehow being a lefty started the bond between us?

Had many great moments together, we study hard, and play hard too :P
College life is nice with her ^^

I thank her for sharing her stories with me, and do patiently listen to mine as well.
Thank her for being there for me when I need someone, and she knows I'm there for her too :)

She's leaving tomorrow to further her studies. Tomorrow, mann.

I thought she just told me not long ago, about how much fun and exhaustion she had during her attachment, the hardship she'd gone through to apply for her degree course, and her final decision in her studies?

Time just fly like that.

Thank God I get to meet her before she leaves. It's God's arrangement for me to meet her when I was so sad praying to God as we thought we couldn't have time to meet.

Final catch up and it's see you in few years' time. ):

Sorry that I couldn't make it to send you off.

Take care and have fun k?^^

All the best and you'll be in my prayers and be missed, dear girl. <3

Card.

Tuesday, 5 March 2013
Hello people in March! :) Somehow mentioned in my previous post that the next post (which is this one) will be about the card for my mum on her birthday, birthday card it is, haha.

To me, a card simply can bring many meanings. It can be filled with wishes, appreciation, apology, etc etc. Well it's a simple and nice expression of yourself to a person :)

This card is the best card I've ever made I suppose. It's quite modern-like yet remaining its simplicity. A mark of how much I've improved over the years, in translating my ideas into reality :D

So here are some shots of the card, of course I won't show you my message to my mum :P

Haha that's all for this post! Have a great week~ ^^

Handmade.

Thursday, 28 February 2013
I always have quite some ideas in mind on hand making gifts or cards for family and friends. But when it comes to execution, I suckkkk ttm :(.

Being a left-hander (I prefer the word lefty more :p), they say I should be good in arts. That's not the case for me, sadly. The only part I can say I'm okay with in arts is music. *pat shoulders, at least still have one part*

I never quit trying though. Practice makes perfect kinda work on me :) Realized I'm improving by time, my works aren't that rough like in few years back^^

Gonna show the first card I'd made in 2013. It's for my viola teacher for his farewell, he went to Aussie to further his studies.

Since he's such a 'strings' guy (he plays the guitar, violin and viola), then I thought of having an instrument as the cover of the card. And it's my first time making a card with black paper, so I'd used liquid paper to design. Really tough and it smudged a bit here and there ><

So here are some shots of the card, taken by my teacher. Sorry about my drawing skills, that out of shaped guitar.

The card for my mum on her birthday will be in my next post, stay tuned! :)

Driving

Tuesday, 26 February 2013
I've passed my driving test! :D haha like finally. And my license is ready too :) JPJ very high efficiency this time, lol good lah.

Driving, overall it's a really nice experience to me. Tbh I was actually afraid to drive. Still remember I was so worried before my first driving lesson, but then it's actually not that bad, so I started enjoying the lessons :)

Don't know if I'm lucky or what, I get to experience all kinds of situations during driving. Thank God I'm still safe after everything :D

It's raining like on 90% of my lessons, and finally it gone too heavy, the exam venue flooded on my 2nd last lesson.

Witnessed a car accident at the exam venue when I was practicing my side parking. Was reversing my car and heard screeching. A car just flew into the sight of my side mirror. And realized that car was behind me waiting for her turn to practice. The car that bang this car, bang another car. Lucky I passed the slope part at once and quickly go to side parking, if not I'm the one get banged. Get banged as a L-license holder even before getting a P license? Not me, lolllll.

Last but not least, traffic jam in a manual car. The disaster, I call it. Experience a massive one, stuck in the jam for over 20 minutes. Control clutch and brake, really a pain :( haha and prevent other drivers from cutting into my lane. Then there's driver who stared at me because I don't let him cut :P EHH BULLY L-LICENSE LAHH?! So I stared back at him hehee :)

The test day was kancheong nervous scared mann, but I steady :) There's an ah pek there nagging and reminding us to do well in all sections. He even did drifting when he got to drive the car back to the slope section after people failed. There's once he failed doing his drifting, then all other people waiting for their turn to be tested burst into laughter :D including me :p

Bro, who's a year younger than me, say the test with me. He was nervous and said since our numbers are the last few in the session, no one will watch us drive the slope section. But when we turn back, there's like 30 people waiting to retake their slope section (they failed last time). Bro completely trolled, haha.

Thank God everything went well, both children of the Ng family passed their driving test! :)

Haha saw two juniors in the test candidate list, so texted them to wish them luck, made them thought I have superpower, know they have test :P Met them and chatted a little, and they passed their test too :)

The lucky number of the day is 71 :D snapped shot while waiting, and drink lots of water due to boredom hehee :p That's all ^^

感觉

Sunday, 17 February 2013
到底可靠不可靠? 真不真实?

我好像感觉到了,但现实告诉我,那不真实。

把那感觉忘了后,现实却告诉我,之前的感觉是真实的。


理性和感性在交织,谁也不让谁。好乱。


理性告诉我,这不属于你,而且想清楚好吗。
- 就是这样,感觉再来时,我才一次次逃避,只为了让自己想清楚。

感性告诉我,为什么不,都摆在眼前了,就让自己去吧,不怕。
- 就是这样,我随着感觉走,看它怎样带领我。


结果,我跟着感觉走,然后怕,然后逃避。

一次次地作了如此的结论。
;这不只是属于你而已,而是属于大家。

我依然相信有一部分,一小部分,属于我。


你啊,我是在说你。我这样,都是你害的。

还是或许,你也和我一样? 烦恼,混乱中。
