BOYS DAY/NIGHT OUT.

the Klangites headed down to Puchong for

nomnomnom bah kut teh.

i know it's really funny for us to travel all the way to Puchong for bah kut teh when there are tonnes of bah kut teh shops in Klang itself but this bah kut teh is awesome, especially the dry version. to be honest, i have never really enjoy eating dry bah kut teh back in Klang but the one they serve there is just too good to resist, seriously 101. as for the soup version, the soup tastes just nice for me though i would perfer thicker soup.

they have a branch in Klang too - Bukit Raja to be specific.

i don't remember the shop's name but their main shop in Puchong is located opposite of Hero (the hypermarket), Kampung Bahru Puchong.

after that, we adjourned to this shop called Puchong Yong Tau Fu which serves

nomnomnom yong tau fu, duh.

yet another awesome shop we can find in Puchong. their chili sauce is really different from the rest; apparently they use papaya as one of the many ingredients. the soup yong tau fu is quite nice though i found the soup's taste funny. the fried yong tau fu on the other hand, goes very well wth the chili sauce.

really worth the trip down to Puchong!

note: both shops are only 2 minutes drive away from one another.

those were on the previous Wednesday.

on Thursday night, we headed down to S15 for the Korean bbq restaurant above of McDonald's. that was a farewell dinner for Guang Qing &&& Jonathan; Guang Qing is already back in Penang while Jonathan will be flying back to Brunei tomorrow.
 

that dinner would be my last time seeing Guang Qing in at least 9 months unless the Penang trip on January is happening. also my last time seeing Jonathan until next February in Melbourne. awesome company they have been, really.

on the other hand, the food they serve is not the best Korean bbq i have eaten but yeah, it is not bad. the only major letdown was that the side dishes are only refillable once; the ones i have eaten can refill unlimited times. other than that, i am pretty fine with this restaurant. oh, i love their bubble tea, damn awesome &&& cheap @ only MYR3.50!

&&& that's that.

i need more boys day/night out! so cannot wait until Jason &&& Zhi Hui comes back, then we can have another S8 kind of hanging out weehee. Laundry? The Library?

on another note,

i am so hooked with KPop right now that i am almost entering the obsessed stage. NOOES *plays Heartbreaker - G-Dragon//

would you choose to have

a rich &&& famous lifestyle, with pretty face features but dies at twenty

OR

a poor &&& low-profiled lifestyle, with moderate face features but dies at eighty?

i would choose

the first one.

aye, i am a materialistic bastard.

fuck me.

but don't get me wrong, i am more than satisfied with my life - was just saying if i had to make a choice.

COOKING ATTEMPT: SPAGHETTI.

as you guys know, i am most probably heading over to Down Under to further my studies in another three more months. in making sure that i survive, my mum has been asking me to learn cooking; she doesn't want me to rely on my three other friends to cook for me or to survive on take-aways. so yeah, now i will be learning simple food first before level-up to the more complicated ones like...

i can't think of any right now haha.

anyway, if some of you are observant, you may remember that exactly one week ago, i attempted frying nuggets, bacons &&& hotdog! the sad news was that i almost puked eating them wtf i put too much of oil. it wasn't a complete failure but yeah, it was quite bad haha.

so,

today, i attempted cooking again &&& it was something new for me - spaghetti. i know i may sound like a jakun because technically cooking spaghetti is like cooking maggi mee but yeah, today was my first time!

ingredients (clockwise): spaghetti noodles, cheesy hotdogs, cheese slices, pasta sauce.

i really recommend Prego, it is the nicest pasta sauce around! i was actually eating it from the bottle itself haha. &&& i have the greatest feeling that Fruity uses Prego to cook their spaghetti bolognese because they taste really alike!

back to the story, the cooking process started with me boiling a pot of water before putting the noodles into it. lalala actually my mum did that because she thinks that i am a complete noob T___T but i swear i really know how to do that!

ANYWAY,

as it will take quite some time before the noodle expands, i made the sauce while waiting.

instead of using cooking oil, i used margarine which i bet everyone does anyway. then again, don't ask me why margarine because i chose it without any reason wtf. &&& by the way, i was supposed to fry chicken breat meat first but i forgotten about it until my mum reminded me haha.

after they are cooked, i poured a small bowl of pasta sauce onto them before adding three slices of cheese to make it cheesy. i recommend at least five slices because i tasted almost no cheese with three slices. if only we had mozzarella cheese in the house!

moving on,

in the mean time, the noodles should be already fully expanded. it took me approximately around 25 minutes for the noodles to expand fully; i think it depends on what is your definition of fully expanded. my mum said that her friend claimed that we need at least 30 minutes or more but i think 25 minutes is fine, so yeah.

after drying the noodles, i poured the sauce onto it &&& ta-dah,

a simple yet delicious spaghetti nomnomnom.

now, what to attempt next? i am thinking of fried rice or fried noodle. or maybe i should learn how to bake from my mum?

PERTH, WA.

my stay in Perth was rather a short one actually. i was there only for twos days three nights; the first night being the night of arrival while second night being the night before travelling to Kalbarri &&& finally, the third night being the night before departure day.

Perth is actually the capital of Western Australia. it has area of around 5386km² which is approximately eight times larger than Singapore. the of Perth is the largest city of Western Australia, with the area of only approximately 13km². pretty small to be the largest city of Western Australia, no?

since all i did was to hang out at my sister's crib in night of arrival, i will proceed to the next day. since my sister stays in the suburb of Wellington, it took us around 20 minutes before arriving at our first destination of the day - King's Park.

King's Park serves as the State War Memorial aside serving its purpose as an attraction. the streets actually are lined with trees with individual plaques dedicated by the citizens to those who died in World War I and II. so you can actually read the plaques to see who the tree is dedicated to, if you don't find it disturbing that is. that aside, i must say that King's Park is definitely the most beautiful park that i have ever been to in my entire 19 years of life!

note: tonnes of flowery, greeny pictures ahead.

wish that i am lying on the cold soft grass right now.

after having enough of fresh air to kickstart the day, we moved to Fremantle for breakfast. Fremantle is a port city in Perth which is located 19km aways from Perth City. apparently it is famous for its nightlife but i reckon their nightlife lasts only until 8pm (will talk about it later). being a port city, they are obviously famous for their seafood too, especially fish &&& chips.

from the many shops that specialise in fish & chips, my elder sister chose Kailis' Fish Market for us. nomnomnom it was tasty, tastier than those i have eaten in Malaysia; i especially love the fried scallops! then again, dining there was a little intimidating because there are tonnes of seagulls eyeing on your food, haha. they actually immediately fly to your table once you start standing up to leave! so for those who are afraid of birds are advised to sit in the restaurant instead of open-area.

after hanging around in Fremantle, we adjourned to Harbour Town. Harbour Town is a shopping mall that, according to my sister, sells off season clothes at extremely low price. true enough, the prices of the clothes there are low - i got a hoodie, 4 tops &&& a shirt for only AUD70, crazy cheap!

the open-aired shopping concept almost froze me to death because the temperature dropped erractically out of all sudden. anyway, we headed for Chinese dinner at Northbridge, which is the China Town of Perth City.

after dinner, i managed to meet up with my close college friend who is studying in UWA, residing in the suburb of Perth. he gave me a tour in Perth City (he drove his aunt's) which was pretty nice.

our first stop was UWA, which stands for University of Western Australia. i am assuming that it is the oldest university in Perth since one of its main buildings looked like Hogwarts to me. &&& trust me, that university is ginormous - let's say aprroximately ten times of Monash Sunway? we hung out there for quite some time to catch with one another after 2 months of not meeting each other.

after that, he drove us to King's Park for another session of sharing. i must say that King's Park is really beautiful in the night. pretty cold too i must say, considering it's up on a hill. funny thing i noticed in King's Park is that there are actually many people who jogged there when it was already past ten thirty when i was up there with Jason. pretty funny yet interesting, no? i noticed quite a number of people who are hanging out there too, just like us. so i am guessing that King's Park is the IT place just like how mamak is our IT place, haha.

retreated back home around twelve as i needed to get enough sleep for the trip up North on the next day. besides, Jason had classes the next day too. thanks Jay, for the awesome tour! *hugs//

&&& that was for my first day, second night in Perth. notice that we did not travel that much because there are actually nothing much to see in Perth itself, or rather the places of interests are too far away - my sister chose travelling up north over travelling in Perth itself, so yeah. 

i will continue on Lancelin &&& Swan Valley in the next post.

oh, more photos are already on Facebook.

POST-EXAM LIFE II.

previously mentioned, my post-exam life was freaking monotonous.

now,

it is still freaking monotonous, period.

you know how they say the best holiday is when you stay at home the whole day with no worries &&& such? well, ask them to try staying at home for two weeks straight. i am sure they will take back their words wtf but seriously, staying at home is a torture, no? i swear i will go crazy one day if i continue staying at home.

anyway, now that i am freaking bored, i think might as well bore you guys with my boring post-exam life.

*yawn//

Saturday

i spent my whole day doing the MY TOP 5 TREAT LIST post. pretty fun to write that post since it has been long since i actually used Photoshop! then again, there are no news about it yet from Nuffnang but i am still keeping my hopes high!

(note: skipping Sunday - Tuesday as i don't remember what i did wtf)

i spent my whole day watching Keeping Up With The Kardashians: The Wedding on YouTube. just in case you guys don't know about it, it is a special on Khloe Kardashian's wedding to Lamar Odom.

they got married only after two weeks of knowing each other wtf even Vera Wang was shocked! i mean it's marrying we are talking about! crazy, Khloe is seriously crazy.

i mean hello, is it that easy to find love? how sure can you be that he* is the one only after knowing him for two weeks? you don't even understand him fully yet! take for example, there are these two people that i know - i have been saying nice things about them during the first few months of knowing them. however, after knowing them better, i feel that they are actually quite funny &&& disgusting. so yeah, i do regret saying those nice things about them. the moral of the story is, two weeks is definitely not enough to know one's true colour. not even a month or two!

sometimes i feel that these people who can hook up easily are a little too desperate for love, no?

just saying.

on another note, i feel that Bruce Jenner is the nicest man around! seriously, if i were him, i would have disown Khloe long time ago for being such a rude bitch wtf you really should watch how she treats him. she didn't want him to walk her down the aisle until he gave the moving speech. what an unfaithful girl zzz.

moving on,

in the night, i spent my time watching the 8 episodes of Kourtney And Khloe Take Miami. pretty entertaining though because they are seriously hilarious! i seriously LOL-ed during the part when JJ said, "i am here to check out the apartment" to which Khloe replied, "check out what? Kourtney's vagina?" AHHAHAHA.

&&& yucks, i hate Scott Disick. can anyone tell me what does he work as? apparently he is not working wtf does it mean that Kourtney is the one making money instead? geesh, i hate men who spend his woman's money.

* for simplicity, i use he instead of he/she because it is kind of tedious to keep typing he/she.

Thursday

headed over to SS15 for pork noodle with my sister, my mum &&& two of my mum's friends. after that, we were supposed to head over to Ikea for some furniture/deco shopping but then my mum's friend suggested One Utama instead.

i think i am starting to lose interest in buying new clothes wtf there was nothing at all that caught my attention! i don't know if i am the one with problem or the clothes are the one with problem. wait, i think it's me because i saw damn many people carrying shopping bags T___T

before heading home, we went to the supermarket

&&&

i bought frozen bacons wtf i am becoming a househusband now double T___T

Friday

headed down to The Frames, TTDI Plaza to celebrate Pei Fun the bimbotic pig's 21st birthday nomnomnom. it was a surprise lunch! the surprise almost failed because generally them people who were supposed to surprise her were an hour late; lucky team Lyndy could delay Pei Fun haha.

hi Pei Fun, hope you enjoyed the lunch!

quite a nice place to chill but the food is a little too salty for my liking. &&& oh, according to John, this place is actually opened by Shazwan's bandmate! cool 101.

anyway, credits to Huey-Ee for throwing this surprise birthday lunch. for some pictures, you can always log into Facebook while for more information, you can hop over to Audrey or Lyndy's blog.

Saturday

did nothing for the whole day until Calvin came over in the evening. we headed to McDonald's to chill out before coming back to my house to continue chilling out. he was actually afraid to enter my house with his orange hair because my mum isn't the most open-minded woman haha but ngeh, instead of pooping her eyes out, my mum thinks that he looks more like a Korean now.

he came to stay over in the night.

Sunday

bah kut teh in the morning with the parents &&& Calvin.

headed back home after that &&& remembered that my Rayban is actually missing for two days already. so yeah, i spent hours looking for it &&& it was actually in my mum's car, under the driver's seat.

then i Facebook-ed the whole day, lifeless.

spent the night watching Desperate Housewives S512/S513! i know i am so lagging behind but i am catching up!

Monday

headed to Greenbox in the afternoon with Ainsley, Garry &&& Su Shien.

I AM PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THAT THEY FINALLY HAVE SUJU - SORRY SORRY! Neway had them like ages ago! then again, the pin yin is so tiny that i could actually read nothing wtf so in the end we mumbled instead of singing haha.

watched Desperate Housewives S514 in the night.

Today

i am waiting to go Sunway Pyramid with Ainsley to meet up with the rest to celebrate Ryan's birthday.

*yawn//

told you my life has been so monotonous.

well it was still monotonous until just now when i came across this page earlier on the net as i am blogging. i am surprised that i do actually have haters wtf quite interesting i must say. however, i want them to know that i do not regret those things that i may have say in my blog that hurted/disturbed you. i have my own stands, i have the right to voice my stands. if you really cannot accept it, then why bother reading my blog at the first place? besides, i have never mention names, so why do you feel hurted/disturbed again?

only you yourselves know it best.

gee, i must say that feeling of being hated is definitely not a nice feeling. i am a little affected but ngeh, they are after all insignificant to me, so why bother, right? now i feel like i am like Carrie Prejean haha.

speaking of her, did you guys watch her interview by Larry King? inappropriately hilarious haha!
