♥ 2012-03-20 McD Chocolate Sundae

♥ 2012-03-20 Tuesday

Photo of the day! McDonalds Chocolate Sundae <3

Another tiring day because I have to work late again. How I wish I can finish all the lab research works as fast as possible so then I can graduate. Being a full time postgraduate student involved in research is not as easy as pie. My interest on research has drastically faded away. I hardly find neither the strength to keep moving forward nor the will to continue in spite of the obstacles. I found it can be very boring at times.

Okay, stop complaining. This is the chosen path in the very beginning and I shall complete it. All I need now - McDonalds Chocolate Sundae to bring some sweetness and to relieve the stress. Leave regret, move forward. Tomorrow another better day.  ♥

♥ Dinner in Hokkaido Sushi, One Utama Shopping Mall

2012-01-20

If u can see/ notice the date stated above, then u know this is an outdated post hahaha. *paiseh paiseh* 

Carl's Jr, Chili's and Zanmai Sushi are my favorite restaurants in One Utama shopping mall. Other than these three restaurants I dunno where else I can dine in. It was 9.30pm, looking at the long queue in front of Zanmai Sushi, I decided not to join the long queue and heading to ground floor. There I found HOKKAIDO SUSHI. I thought it was Zanmai Sushi at the first sight, their menu and the design of restaurant, everything of it just looks similar .___. I decided to have my late dinner here since I craving for sushi. I damn love the ambiance over here, cozy and quiet.

So anyone can tell me, is Hokkaido Sushi = Zanmai Sushi?? .___. I really confuse.

As usual, I ordered Chicken Katsudon (Small) which costs only RM8.80. The portion is really big for me and I couldn't finish it.

And he ordered Ebidon (Small) which also costs only RM 8.80. 

I ordered another sushi set too, Hodaka sushi set (7+1). Damn cheap, 8 sushi for only RM12.80. Too much sushi, ended up we couldn't finish it and asked for take away.
 

California hand roll, RM 4.80. His favorite. And I forget to order my favorite - Chawanmushi :(

Simple but awesome dinner, cheap one.  And I'm too full.

♥ Accident on first day of CNY

2012-01-23 

Unlucky! Unlucky! I involved in a minor car accident with a motorcycle during the first day of Chinese New Year. Guess this year the luck is not with me. The motorcycle passenger claimed that I'm wrong because I'm taking a right turn and they were on the straight road direction. But hey, u bumped on me on the opposite lane not on the lane u were driving. And u do not own a driving license, with a passenger and I pretty sure u were driving very fast.

And what more upset me was the polices/ traffic polices. These polices who came not even ask for clarification how the accident happens. And they not even bother to look at the broken glasses and my signal light on the road to measure and to judge who is wrong in the first place. Then came and told us both car and motorcycle also should take the responsibilities. Alright, whatever, I got no mood and I just accept then. And when we requested to make a police report so that I can claim my car insurance. U know what the police tells me? "I can write a report for u, but don't involve the motorcycle." What is this? Why I shouldn't have report her? She is wrong and she got no driving license. And she don't even dare to let me know her I/C number. Just because u listen to the bullshit that her dad just passed away last month and u feel pathetic for her? U r lucky that I was so nervous that time and I do not know ur police identity number else I'm going to report u.

Just a reminder or advice here, please do not drive if u do not own a license even though u think ur driving skill is so damn good. 

Mood totally ruined.

♥ Lou Sang Dinner at New Paris Restaurant

2012-01-17

Happy Chinese New Year everyone! Have u lou sang with ur family and friends yet? :D

Lou sang is a must during Chinese New Year celebration. It also commonly known as yee sang, yuu shang or yu sheng, whichever u like to name it. P/S: Sorry I don't know what it called in English ><" I don't explain here what this dish consists of and what's the meaning of each ingredients because I guess everyone knows it. If u don't know, ask ah gong ah maa heheheee or google it lahhh :P

I went for a lou sang dinner with my labmates/colleagues before CNY, before everyone goes back to hometown (right after my postgraduate seminar :D). A total of seven of us. We don't know any other restaurant which serves good foods and lou sang, hence we went to the nearest one, New Paris Restaurant which located at PJ SS2. 

We go for the smallest yuu shang, RM33. Small yuu shang shared by 7 peoples. No choice, students are poor, we are poor and so we need to save $$$ :D Their yuu shang not bad though. *Thumbs up* The price reasonable or not, I'm not so sure.

We ordered this scrambled egg with shrimps, RM12. As we just tried their scrambled egg with bitter gourd few days ago. This dish really has only egg and shrimp, maybe they should have add some onions.

 Vegetables, RM9. 

Their signature tofu. Fried tofu with minced pork, RM12. This is awesome. One of my favorite dish in this restaurant.

Teochew steamed fish, RM26. Hmmm the gravy is nice but the fishy smell of the fish is too strong which a little bit spoil the dish.

Last but not least, the receipt. A total of RM116.80 for 7 persons. I would say this is quite cheap and reasonable. Worth the $$. 

Satisfied with the dinner. We had joy and fun ♥

♥ Massive Jam on Karak Highway

2012-01-21

Hate to stuck in massive jam especially on highway during festive season. Shouldn't have back to hometown in the early of Saturday morning (2012-01-21). Look at the picture below. Massive jam on Karak highway that u can't imagine. Why everyone wake up so early? (-.-)||| I thought most of the people will depart on Friday aikssssss.

I really don't understand. How traffic congestion happens on highway?? Cars doesn't move at all. What about u? For those who uses north-south expressway, are u experience the same thing?  

Because of the massive jam before the toll, I stopped at the petrol station to get something for breakfast. There's only Dunkin' Donuts, donuts that I hate the most. Very limited choices they have, ended up I just simply bought two donuts and they were so not nice. Aiks!


A combo of traffic jam plus not-so-nice-donuts. Frustrated -.-

♥ Postgraduate seminar

2012-01-17

Second semester of my postgraduate study going to end soon in February. According to the University of Malaya rules and regulations, students are compulsory to organize a postgraduate seminar not later by second semester. Due to a week of Chinese New Year holiday and a few public holiday next coming weeks as well as tight schedule of lecturers, I forced to have my seminar falls on 17th of January. Kinda in a rush and I nearly got no time to prepare for it. Just back from Krabi trip, many abandoned works need to be catch up. Weekends full of appointment as well, laser tag activity and sing k session. Hehehee that's why I have to take a day leave on 16th of January to prepare for the seminar. Loads of scientific articles to read, prepare presentation slides, compile experimental results and etc (Regret not to do it earlier, my fault my fault).

Me in formal wear for the presentation. Yeah a smile on the face because the presentation wasn't too bad although there were some questions which I unable to answer. But big thanks to professor for sorting the problem out and gimme some suggestions and comments. I will look into them seriously and improve. Overall the seminar wasn't too bad, I will give myself a rating of 7 out of 10??

Finally the seminar is over. Yeahhhhh!! ^^ Feels so happy and relief. Finally I have no burden and I can spare my time 100% for CNY :D I will have to do last minute shopping for CNY new clothes and shoes. Let's gooooooooo! 

Till then. Wishing everyone a happy Chinese New Year ♥

♥ Dim Sum breakfast at Imperial Garden Restaurant (Tai Thong)

Went to Imperial Garden Restaurant (Tai Thong Group of Restaurants) which located at Petaling Jaya with family for breakfast. Good offer from Tai Thong restaurant - 50% dim sum discount promotion, happening every Saturday. That's why we were here for the breakfast haha, else I would prefer the dim sum at Old Klang Road (all time favorite). 

Very nice logo and design of the menu. Very classy. Of course this is not the main concern, the environment and the foods of the restaurant should be the first to take into account. 

Wedding dinner :D Just kidding -.- The decorations of the restaurant very eyes catching right? Cozy ambiance too, good place for family to gather. Was very crowded on that day morning, full house and most of the dim sum was sold out too. Luckily we made booking for a table earlier.

Their double-boiled soup promotion, buy 1 free 1. Wanted to order but all the soups sold out, so fast.

Steamed spare rids, nice.

 Porridge, a bit tasteless. And I can't even tell what porridge is this -.-

 Rice noodle rolls with shrimp, not bad thought. The shrimp is fresh.

Crispy bean curd skin and shrimp roll. Nice to eat with Mayonnaise. 

Spicy fried carrot cake with beansprouts, for me it is a little bit too oily

Pan fried carrot cake

I don't know what is this. I don't eat.

Fried dumplings wrapped with shrimp

 Deep fried taro

Dumplings with minced pork

Garlicky fish balls. Doesn't suit my taste bud.

Fish balls

 Shrimp Har Gow (Shrimp dumplings)

 

Chicken paws with house sauce

 Pork Siew Mai (Pork Dumplings)

Chicken and mushroom sticky rice

Last but not least, a group photo of the dim sum. 

Super filling dim sum breakfast. But still i prefer the one in Old Klang Road, not too pricey and much nicer. Big thanks to beloved bro who treated us such a nice breakfast.  *Happy mood*

♥ New Year Trip To Krabi &Glur Hostel

2012-01-01

Happy new year everyone! This will be my first post in year 2012 and it is about my first trip this year. Awesome one, a 5 days 4 nights trip to Krabi, Thailand together with my beloved friends. What a good kick start of year 2012 :D

Look at the Thai Baht that I have. I'm all ready to go Krabi on 1st of January 2012 to enjoy to the max! Too excited, this was why I suffering from insomnia at the night before. We boarded on plane at 1.30pm and reached Krabi at around 1.55pm. It took only 25mins to reach Krabi?? Okay I'm just trying to confuse u. 1.55pm is actually the Thailand time and the flight took us about one and a half hour. We have an extra hour to spend in Thailand :D

Glur hostel, this was the place where we stay. It is a backpacker style accommodation which located at AoNang, Krabi. "Glur" means "good friends or buddy" in Thai, especially in the Southern area in Thai. A double thumbs up for the service and facilities in this hostel. p/s: Feel free to visit their website for more information: http://www.krabiglurhostel.com/ 

This is the reception house of Glur hostel. Very nice design and color isn't it? And I like all the decorations thingy in there too.

We got ourselves a 8 persons shared room. That's means 6 of us have to share the room with another two strangers. 

Although there were 8 persons in one room but it wasn't pack at all. Each of us have a very nice own bed, cozy and comfortable. And we have our own locker too. Look at the curtain, nice one and me likey :D

Besides cozy and comfortable room, there are some facilities in the hostel. They provided a mini kitchen, there's free water for u. There's fruits in the fridge, instant milo and coffee and biscuits for u as well. U can grab those foods and drinks, sit down and have ur very precious leisure time in this open area. There's tv, dvd player, dvd and many books provided for u to kill ur free time. 

We were very satisfied with the accommodation. One thing that we dislike was the bed bugs that bitten us -.- Why there are so many bed bugs? T.T

Till then. Stay tune for my upcoming posts. I will blog and share my awesome 5 days Krabi trip here. ♥
