Thank God! I'm Done!

I'm sure you guys are quite bored of seeing all my previous emo posts about my worries in my dissertation. I wasn't able to submit it on time and I only submitted it 10 days later. Rushing it like hell without sleeping for 2 days 1 night. Thought of passing it up with the next batch but was informed have to pay RM800 because it's considered a re-sit. (Already so rich still want to eat ppl's money) Of course, being the kiamsiap me sure rather rush than to pay lah (My lecturer advice me it's not worth it too anyway) And, I risk the chance of failing because 20% of my total marks will be deducted. Farks. 20% is A LOT ok! (Ish, regret now also no use)

Yesterday was my oral defense to present my dissertation. The scariest, longest and last presentation of my entire education life. Didn't sleep well the previous night because I seriously am worried to death. Went in at 4.15pm and was in there for almost 1 whole blardy hour. I was like 'and then... uhh... then... uhh... sorry... uhh' 2 juries staring at you talking. Thank god they were only lecturers (but still, they were strict!). There were supposed to be external juries meaning high rank managers from the hotel industry but didn't see any. Comment was OHKAY but I was still scared cuz I might fail even though my presentation was OHKAY. Well, at least everything is OVER!

Went out the whole day today with some friends. Haha, I think I explored KL today more than in my 20 years of life. Went to Lake Garden, and now only I know the locations for Planetarium, Memorial Tun Abdul Razak, Tugu Negara, Bird Park, Butterfly Farm all :p Well, I went before but it was when I was like in kindergarten ok! Went to KL then Kajang then Cheras then Subang then Cheras then Subang then back home! Someone said I have baby face and looks like an SPM student! Wakakaka! Thanks *someone* for the compliment. I'm so proud. First time in my life someone say I look younger than my age. Because usually people will say I look old =_="

The announcement of passing students was said to be out today. But I don't have the courage to go check it out at college. I told Nicholle 'if I pass, call me. If I fail don't call me.' She said: "So I purposely will not call you lah." Ma de~ Halfway through dinner got sms. "Shyt. Namo namo namo, please say I pass please say I pass. *Flip open my phone* Ma de~~ It was Ivy." Zha dou. 10 minutes later another sms came. "Namo namo namo" *Flip open phone* NA MO OMI TO FO! Passed!!! Wahoo!!! Thank god!!!

From now on, I'm a full time 'floor measurer'. So any of you want teman to go out just call me at 012-3456789 muahaha! Not!! You guys know my number :) I have tonnes to do before I find
a job permanently. Enjoy kau kau first!

Tomorrow will be the result announcement as in announcing our grades. Not expecting good grades this time. I'll just enjoy the few hours tomorrow with all my friends. I guess it will be the last time I'll see some of them. I just hope I won't use up all my tissues. And take loads and loads of pics!!! Will blog about tomorrow.. well, tomorrow! Nyahaha!

HAKUNA MATATA!!!

[Lyrics] Gary Chaw - Ai Ai

Recently I fell in love with Gary Chaw's latest album - Super Sunshine. I would really recommend this album as a 'must buy' because all the songs inside are darn good. No joke. My personal fave would be this one - Ai Ai. Very sweet song, can be used in weddings or you can sing to your gf when you want to propose to her. Well, it's a guy song but heck. I love it! Anyway, Gary's coming back! 9th March Sungai Wang 5pm ;) See you there!

爱爱

English translation: (Wah seh, so semangat!)

Last year we attended a friend's wedding
You asked the bride how can she be so pretty
Oh~ Baby, do you want to feel the same?
Yesterday we visited a friend's new house
You envy the loving paint smell
Oh~ Baby, if you say yes, I give you all

I love you girl, I'll wait for your answer
Let me give you love, are you willing?
Let me give you hugs, can I?
I'm very sure, when I see you, my heartbeat is always as near as now
Let me be your baby, are you willing?
Let me be your hubby, can I?
Use this song as a matchmaker, put both of us together

This year we attended a friend's wedding
You asked the bride how can she be so pretty
Oh~ Baby, do you want to feel the same?
Today we visited a friend's new house
You envy the loving family feel
Oh~ Baby, if you say yes, I give you all

Cafe 2369 + Aunties Ssam

This afternoon was asked for lunch by my two best buddies in sec skl Ching and Ria. Had no idea where to go but decided on Kuchai cuz we're quite bored of the phood in TD. Parked the car and walk around to see what to eat. End up have to toss a coin to decide. And here we end up in - Cafe 2369. There are a few cafes around that area such as Island Cafe, Wings Cafe, Station 1, Cafe 2046 and this 2369. How to survive such competitions...

Saw most of the tables around were having their fish head noodles. Shall try it next visit. Looks like good stuff. We ordered 3 dishes instead accompanied by rice. You can choose to have single meal (one portion of the dish on rice) or dishes portioned for 2-3 persons.

Marmite Pork Ribs
(don't really taste like marmite :p)

Butter Chicken (yummy stuff!)

Stir Fried French Bean (tender & juicy!)

Their drinks are so so only. I ordered Ice Jasmine Tea which I think Boon Boon's tasted nicer. Ching's Hazelnut Milk Tea taste.. well.. weird. Ria's Vanilla Milkshake is nice though. But not cold enough.

Then we just sat and chit chat about our recent lives and secondary school days. Really memorable :)

At night, since parents and aunt and my baby cousin were going to Phuket tomorrow (I actually am supposed to go to but thanks to the oral defense arghh!) so we went out for dinner since I won't be seeing them for 4 freaking days. Wanted to go Delicious/Italiennies one, but uncle decided on a new place for Nyonya food.

An authentic Penang Nyonya restaurant opened by 3 aunties partners. Why the double S? Their names are Sheryn Lee, Shally Wong and Margaret Ooi. Article link

Claypot Fish Head Curry

Pumpkin Chicken (I love love love this dish a lot)

Stir Fried Kai Lan

Marmite Pork Ribs (again?!? Just had it in the afternoon)

Special dish - Durian Prawns (Special but didn't really like it.. the clash of the taste)

Overall, the dishes were really delicious. My uncle and dad had double servings of rice, even my mum who usually eats little rice took more than usual :) For dessert we had their Rojak, Cendol and Ice Kacang which were equally good! Plus the 3 bosses were friendly as well. Due to just few tables around, they were very friendly to all the customers and kept asking how is everything. Service was good too, the waiters and waitresses were friendly, but they try to clear empty plates too fast. Anyhow, definitely will be back again.

Pavilion Food Republic + Kenko Fish Spa

Was at Pav for 2 days in a row. No, I am not a rich Datuk's wife that can spend money in Pav, but I was invited to go there for lunch. And Spa ;)

Food Republic is a food court from Singapore, and it's hell of a good business at Pav, varieties of food choices there, Korean, Vietnam, local, Thai, Teppanyaki, Malay etc.

Mee Rebus

Scallop and Peanut Soup from Ah Yip Herbal Soup

Fried Prawn Noodles

I thought those transparent white strips were bean sprouts at first. Was wondering how come there are more taugehs than noodles. Mana tau it's actually "lai-fun", a type of noodles, similar to the assam laksa noodles :)

Sea Coconut with Ice Shavings

Korean Spicy Beef Soup with Vegetables

It was so so... I think the Stone Pot Rice would taste better.

I was with a few AUNTIES that were very gian to try the newly opened Fish Spa. (Err, what? Fish? Spa? Spa with Fish?? Geli!)

A new trend in town. A brand from Singapore. (Nampak macam aquarium shop aje), kekeke, yeah, it looks like a landscape/fish shop but let's look inside.

This 'ponds' are filled with small little fishy called the Garra Rufa fish. Also known as "Doctor Fish" that hails from Turkey. What these little grey fishies do is they nibble your legs' dead body cells, believing that it is able to ease skin diseases, make your skin smoother and promote blood circulation.

Shucks... my leg banyak dead cell...

Erm, sorry about the fat chubby leg and the banyak bulu... I wonder these fishes ever feel full... Because they nibble non stop.

How does it feel? Erm, very very ticklish and you can really feel the fishes nibbling. I had to cover my mouth with my hands to stop myself from screaming or laughing. But after 5 minutes or so it's less ticklish.

Doesn't feel any difference now, perhaps you must go a couple of times to get the effect, or perhaps my feet has too much dead cells. But it's definitely a good experience. They also have other massages such as foot reflexology, shoulder, head or hand massage.

Price: RM38 for half an hour
*Look out for promotions that combines other massages with fish spa. Mine was 45 minutes foot reflex with 20 minutes fish nibbling for RM69 - New Year promotion.

Second Concert in 5 days - Backstreet's Back

If comparing Westlife and BSB, I am a bigger fan of Westlife. But when I knew that BSB was coming for concert, I instantly agreed to go. Therefore, 27th Feb 2008, I went for Backstreet Boys' Unbreakable World Tour Concert 2008 in Sunway Lagoon's Surf Beach.

I only made my way to the venue at 5.30pm, halfway on NPE, 'tak tak tak tak' oh shyt, it started to rain heavily. Great. Upon reaching the entrance, there were a lot of people queuing up already. Darn, maybe because too long never so 'kiasu' to queue with crowded people dy, so feel damn uneasy and uncomfortable. And no offence to those who went, but erm, I don't know SOME of them go for concert or fashion/make up show... And the things SOME of them talk about, *bang wall*.

Gate was supposed to open at 7 or 7.30pm, but we waited until 8.10pm! Everybody was scolding and shouting. Seems that they opened ANOTHER entrance first. Fcuk. This entrance that we queue (near the hotel) was supposed to be the MAIN entrance. Never had good impression on Galaxy anyway.

Anyway, the concert started not long after. Me and my friends didn't bother to squeeze with people in front and decided to stand behind. Clear and nice view although a bit far. And we saw Jin Au Yang slumberly walking around playing with his mobile. If only I called up to him and took a photo. Regret.

Hell it was a GREATTTT concert! I would say I enjoyed the flow of the concert much more than Jay's. Imagine, just the four of them and the bands. Their positioning, dance, flow were all smooth! And they begin all those k-songs with a different rhythm that no one can guess, and all scream when heard the song intro after that! Awesome awesome awesome! Although only the four of them (Kevin left ;( my fave in the group) but everyone, both them and the fans enjoyed kau kau. Nick was super high, AJ can dance super well, Brian is super cute and friendly, Howie can groove deyh... Haha, my era punya songs... Jumped and screamed hearing those familiar songs... "I Want It That Way", "As Long As You Love Me", "Everybody", "Larger Than Life", "I'll Never Break Your Heart", "Shape Of My Heart" and each of them even sang solo. About 30 songs altogether. One of the four spotlight wasn't working at the beginning, but was ok halfway. AJ's mic was soft at one point. Otherwise, a great show. Couple of times Brian let the crowd sing, it was nice to hear that everyone was enjoying and singing aloud :)

The concert was great (Ma de, how many times wanna repeat), but I guess the haywire happens before and after. First was the blardy late gate opening, plus it was raining. Then after the concert, of course everyone leaves at the same time. There were 5 - 6 flights of escalator heading up. The first escalator at the most bottom was operating, but the 2nd flight was not! So the people at the 2nd flight had to pause and walk up slowly while the 1st flight's speed was much faster. So the different timing caused a jam at the 2nd escalator and ppl had to stop ON the OPERATING escalator. Which is so dangerous people might roll down the escalator caused by the jam! Crazy shyt. That's not the worst. Ppl speed up at the 2nd flight. Comes to the 3rd flight, the escalator was operating... SUDDENLY, from moving upwards the direction of the escalator changed and moved DOWNWARDS! And at a fast speed! AND, crowded with people ON the escalator! Omg, I was like watching a horror movie for 5 damn seconds. Everyone was screaming. Luckily no injuries. Then it stopped and people start to walk up super fast. Fearing it will move backwards again.

A reliable source said there were no post party, so we didn't bother waiting and head for dinner cum supper. Then off we head for home. Sorry, no pics taken cuz we were too far. If you want the videos, message me personally ;)
