  • “Balik Kampung” Day 3

    This will be the shortest entry in my “Balik Kampung” entries. The night before, I slept at around 2.30am and the next day I had to wake up at 8.am, it was so torturing. My eyes could barely open when I was brushing my teeth. It made me feel like I was in some training camp back in School.

    Anyway, after washing up I felt much better and awake so I went back to my room, put on make up, changed and got ready to go.

    Jie and I.

    We had lunch at Uehara.

    Super big and round table

    Us

    Fried Onion. I didnt know fried onion can be so delicious.

    very fresh Sashimi. *drool*

    Taiwan beer! Can you believe I literally brought back 2 cartons.

    Vege that they dont serve here in Msia, very crispy and juicy.

    Steamed eggs

    Sushi rolls

    Japanese style chicken chop

    Fried fish eggs.

    Tempura

    Steak on stone, well cooked, juicy and tender yummmm *thumbs up*

    Personally I dont like Miso soup but this tasted a little bit different, not bad.

    Thats all for Day 3’s post because I was too lazy to take out my camera throughout the rest of day, Im so sorry. We went back to Aunt’s place and hung out, watched movies and chit chat. After that we went shopping with mum and all the girls but dad and uncle stayed home and took a nap.

    After all I was there to visit my family so we didn’t do what tourists normally do but I’ve already been to most of the places more than twice. So, I think thats pretty much about it for day 3.

  • “Balik Kampung” Day 2

    We spent our 2nd day in Taiwan travelling around from 9am – 1am.

    Woke up at around 8am. Yes I always wake up really early when Im with my parents cause I have a mum who keeps saying that sleeping is just a waste of time. What to do, no matter what time I slept the night before I will still have to wake up at 8am. 9 am is already considered late. Please don’t complain if your mum wakes u up at 10am.

    克林姆之屋,台南

    My aunt’s bakery shop. If you have a chance to visit Tainan, feel free to stop by her bakery and try out her cakes. They are all my favorites!

    Jie and I were all ready to go!

    We had breakfast at Mum’s favorite restaurant, YUM.

    I ordered an American breakfast set and it started with a yogurt with honey syrup on top.

    Ham, bread, scrambled eggs and a little salad on the side.

    Sis had croissant with potato salad.

    Iced black tea

    Dad’s Iced Coffee with whipped cream on top

    It always feels good when you’re walking down the road surrounded by Mandarin billboards, it makes me feel more like HOME.

    Mum said I used to travel around sitting on the exact same motorcycle with a lil chair in front with my grandma when I was young. After breakfast we walked from the breakfast place to my aunt’s house, my mum said it was just nearby so we walked.

    Reached Aunt’s place and had a lot of yummy food for lunch. Sticky rice with peanut, love!

    Sushi!

    yummmm

    Chit chat session!

    meat balls soup!

    My cousin’s afraid of getting tanned so she carried her umbrella everywhere we went.

  • Happy Halloween 2010

    “BOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooo” Happy Halloween you guys, wahaha.

    How was everyone’s Halloween celebration? I’m too old for trick-or-treating so I headed to Phuture, Zouk, with friends and I had lots of fun. It was so packed and hot, on a few occasions, I had to stand under the aircon to stay alive. I was so surprised that people in Malaysia do dress up for Halloween. This was my first time celebrating Halloween without all the blondes and brunettes around. To be honest, I miss celebrating Halloween in the US, it seems different because no one will stare at you with a mouth full of maggie mee goreng when you’re walking into the restaurant /mamak in a costume. It’s different but I still like the fact that I get to dress up and be whoever I want for a night! Below are some pictures I took during the night.

    Otw to Phuture with Jo =) I should learn to smile wider so I wont look too fierce. By the way, I’ve finally learned how to apply 2 layers of fake lashes, so proud of myself .

    Reached there at around 11.15pm, met up with the rest at Maya Hotel.

    JO didnt dress up but he kinda mentioned tat he was Gary Cao (曹格) for a night.

    Walked in at around 11.20pm and it was already packed with people. Luckily Dan reserved a table for us if not we would have to wait outside for another hour or 2? Who knows!

    Sailor and Gary wannabe!

    Sailor Bo and Devil Mich

    The girls! Surprisingly 4 of us dressed up as sailors but no one looks the same.

    Viv and I

    Honestly, do I look like a sailor or a nurse to you? When I was walking to the restroom some random guys said, Hi and continued with a “Hey, where is the Dr?” or “Hey, Im sick.” or even “Hey, Nurse.” I turned to them and said, “Im not a nurse, Im a sailor.” and walked away. Too early to be drunk, so I guess I was really frustrated. Even my frens asked me Qs like “What r u ?”.

    Bumped into Dawn Yang.

    Sarah and I

    Me, Jo, and Joel

    Sailor, policewoman, Play boy bunny and French maid

    Jeslin and her fren.

    Finally, Bff came and she was the Queen of Hearts

    Isabella Kuan and I

    The girl frens and the boy frens

    Bff, Ringo and I.

    bb, Me and Bff

    The Sailors. I wonder who’s vertical hand was that, it’s kinda spooky.

    Taken inside the restroom.

    I was so tired of standing in my high heels so I sat down with bff and camwhored.

    Exhausted and my feet hurt like shit.

    Then bff came and say y not we camwhore again. O yeah!

    Me and Vantene

    Dato Daniel Tan with his lil mask and yes he had quite a few drinks prior.

    Yupe, there goes my Halloween night.
