Wasted

Alcohol is a truth serum.
Alcohol unfolds your deepest thoughts.
Alcohol reveals your true emotions.
And best of all, alcohol makes you become who you really are on the inside and you have no control over yourself.

I always hear stories from my friends of how drunk they were last week, how drunk their friends were last month, how bad their hangover was when they woke up and how they can't remember what they did the night before.

Honestly speaking, I've always wanted to try getting drunk but never did until recently.
For the first time i experience what my friends and their friends were talking about all this time - trust me, it felt good at the beginning but not so much later on.

I didn't realized i was tipsy until halfway through because i started to mumble lots of stupid stuffs, smiled like an idiot at everything and kept telling my friend to sing a Taylor Swift song. I was on the floor the entire time and when i wanted to walk, i almost fell sideways and out of nowhere, i cried. It just happened. Every little thing made me cry. My friends said we cry when we're drunk is because we have issues. After that, one by one of us started to cry and talk about each other's issues. I talked a lot about some personal issues that I've been burying.

I almost wanted to throw up in the end. I don't know if i'll ever wanna go through that again because i'm still not ready to let anyone know what i really really feel.

Tom, Dick & Harry's


When my friend first asked me what was the name of this place, I looked at her and said Tom, Dick & Harry's. She stares back at me and says Tom, Dick & Harry's? She pauses and thinks but her eyes never left mine. And then a few seconds later she says, 
"Tom Riddle, Dick & Harry Potter??"

I laughed my ass out that night~

Don't worry because I'm very sure TDH didn't get its name from Tom Riddle & Harry Potter if you get what i mean because the actual meaning of Tom, Dick & Harry refers to multiple unspecific people - ANYBODY!!

I stumbled upon TDH when my friend messaged me saying we're going to Scott's Garden a few days ago. First question that popped into my empty morning mind was 'What's Scott's Garden?', and then 'Where's Scott's Garden??'

Scott's Garden is this new hangout spot for drinkers, shoppers and more drinkers at Old Klang Road. One drinker is for Chatime and another drinker is for well the pubs and bars located 80% at the main entrance of the place. It's very similar to Sunway Giza in Kota Damansara. The difference is Giza doesn't have TDH~ LOL

The Bar 

 Drinks & Food Menu

Pan-Fried Fish - RM23.00 

Harry's Cheese Burger - RM22.00 

Pork Burger - RM22.00 

Hoegaarden 1/2 pint - RM15.00

I wasn't able to snap the rest of food and drinks because my other friends came later but we ate, we drank, we played and we spent RM276.00 in 4 hours. Tom, Dick & Harry's is a great place for youths to hangout especially if you're looking for a low key kind of place. Overtime is just next door so most of the noisy people go there and for some reason they like to shout when they drink.

Breaking Dawn Let Down

Yes, I have finally watched Breaking Dawn and No i didn't entirely enjoyed it.
I must say the ONLY part i really liked was towards the ending from the part where Bella reveals the baby's name until the ending.
But if you ask me about the parts before that, sorry.

I expected more from Bill Condon, the director.
The movie felt almost 80% like the previous installments. Come on !!!

First of all, 1/3 of the cast don't sound realistic with their lines.
Kristen Stewart is a beautiful person but she's just AWKWARD !! There's no feel or kick whenever she says her lines !! OMG its like she reads and memorizes her scripts and just vomited everything out. Like the part about the 'bad fried chicken' and when she finds out she's pregnant and Carlisle calls - AWKWARD. Then there's Leah Clearwater (I forgot her real name) when she was talking to Jacob on the beach when the pack was playing ball.

Second of all, what the hell was up with all the wrong background musics??
When it was appropriate to have a background music, there wasn't one - awkward silence. There were few parts where casts were standing still or Bella and Edward hugging and kissing - DEAD SILENCE !

When it was appropriate to NOT have a background music, there was an awkward background music. The part when Bella and Edward first reached Isle Esme and were in the bedroom, there was this somewhat soft-happy-sunshine background. Then all of a sudden it turned into a jumpy background. 


And Third of all, Bella's dream was messed up!
What happened to the crying baby sitting on the pile of dead bodies?
What happened to Bella and the baby being encircled by the Volturi??
What happened to the Volturi receiving Edward and Bella's wedding invitation???
What happened to Jacob shoving breakfast down his throat at the Cullen's house????

People said Harry Potter & The Deadly Hallows Part 1 sucked but made up for it in Part 2. 
I really really hope Part 2 will be better or i'll go back to reading the book and imagining the scenes myself.

An Apple A Day Keeps The Fats Away

I just bought two packs of red apples to today. 
I'm starting my apple diet tomorrow because i heard from a friend who lost weight by eating apples. It is said that if you eat an apple 15 minutes before your meal you will lose weight. Apples are high in fiber and water so if you eat an apple it will make you feel full so when you eat your meal you will eat less of it because of the apple you have eaten earlier.

So whose with me on my apple diet ??

My 1st Cheese Burger @ The Bee

Before this is was all chicken, chicken, chicken, pork, chicken chicken burgers.
So I took a step forward today in my foodie world and ordered a cheeseburger for the first time at The Bee in Jaya One - PJ.

I never knew beef patty burgers could taste so juicy !! Before this whenever i taste beef it always leaves a bad after taste in my mouth and sometimes the smell of it just makes me make my face like this - >__<""

This Cheeseburger at The Bee is really worth your money because the patty is almost as thick as your THUMB!!! And when you take your first bite, the meat just melts in your mouth along with the cheese and the more you munch the more juicy it gets. MMMMmm !!! You really can't taste the beefy taste.

I know the fries looks like a typical bunch you can get from McD - BUT NO!!!
You absolutely CANNOT get this from McD because although it may look the same - IT IS NOT THE SAME !!! McD's fries get cold and soggy but here it's fresh out from the fryer and still crunchy crunchy even after you slowly eat the burger.

The cost?
RM15 + 10% tax = RM16.50


To me it's a reasonable price considering it's location in Jaya One -PJ.



Beside the Cheeseburger, my friends had the Club Sandwich with chips, The Bee Burger - thumb size juicy beef patty and lastly Chili Cheese Fries.


If you're ever at Jaya One you better look out for The Bee because it's a must eat location for food lover~

Talent is Never Enough


I have just started this book called 'Talent is Never Enough' by John C. Maxwell - Yes, I read. It was an early Christmas gift I received from my university. Frankly it was for the 1st year scholars of 2011 but there were extras so me and another friend helped ourselves to one.

It's been awhile since I've picked up a non-comical, fictional, or whatever book.

I just went through the introduction and i kinda like it - Omg I've never liked a non-comical, fictional or whatever book!

This is my understanding of the introduction;
Everyone has a talent. Some are just naturally gifted and some work hard to obtain it. Having a talent alone will NOT guarantee you success in life. A lot must be done before anyone can truly be successful because having a talent is just the beginning. John C. Maxwell points out that everyone can be a talent-plus person. A talent-plus person simply means someone who has a talent and makes the right choices in life will succeed. What's the use of having a talent no one has but make all the wrong choices?



"The key choices you make - apart from the natural talent you already have - will set you apart from others who have talent alone."


I don't know whose quote is that because it wasn't stated in the book. But not bad right? I'm reading something good for once. I have 13 more chapters to go and I'm gonna finish this book! For real this time! No halfway or quarter-way or no-way! It's All-The-Way!

Jung Sungha in UCSI University, Kuala Lumpur Malaysia (4th Dec 2011)


Sixteen year old Jung Sungha is no ordinary Korea boy. He is the fingertip guitar prodigy of our generation and an amazing on at that.

He is a polite scrawny kid with a sweet smile and killer mad guitar skills. Some people are just born talented and Sungha happened to be one of them.

 He arrived in Malaysia at 9.00AM and had little time to go site seeing as he had to practice for his two shows in UCSI University. The first show was at 5pm – 6pm and then it was the signing session for his CDs and T-shirts. Some people brought their own guitars and ukulele for Sungha to sign. Finally the 1st session ended shortly after 7pm and it was time to wait for the 2nd show to begin at 8pm.

At 7.45pm the doors of the Recital Hall opened to people to be seated. UCSI University’s recital hall has never been filled so quickly. It was a full house and was filled in record time. Audiences ranged from little children to the elderly were nicely seated at their designated seats and soon after 8pm, the emcee stepped on stage and introduced the talented Jung Sungha and the crowd went wild.

 People would think after performing so many times at countless of stages Jung Sungha would sound more used to the atmosphere. But no. As he stepped onto the Recital Hall’s stage, Sungha dressed in a black blazer over a white T in skinny jeans and red sneakers sounded as timid as he usually is in his youtube videos politely bowed and introduced himself.

Throughout the whole almost 1 and a half hour seesion, Sungha played a total of 12 sets of songs. 9 sets of songs by guitar and 3 sets of songs by ukulele and the audience could see that he had fun with it. It was originally 10 songs but the crowd and the emcee begged for two more and Sungha, although tired, happily agreed.

At 9.30pm, the Recital hall emptied and everyone with a CD, T-shirt or an instrument packed the classroom outside for Sungha’s 2nd autograph session. Tired as he may seem, he granted all his fans wishes to take a picture with him and left everyone wanting more of his amazing guitar skills.

We hope that Sungha enjoyed his first time in Malaysia and will come back in the near future.

Ficelle Boulangerie & Patisserie

(I do not own this picture)
 (This picture i do own)
Have you heard of Ficelle Boulangerie & Patisserie before?
No not Levain Boulangerie & Patisserie, Ficelle.
They're like a sister branch of each other.

Levain is located in the heart of KL while Ficelle is located in somewhat a quiet secluded area in Taman Danau Desa.

I found out about Ficelle through a friend who happened to be in the area and word started to spread and soon me and my friends were all about wanting to go to Ficelle and we finally did.

(I do not own these two pictures)
 The inside is quiet similar to Levain just without the stone oven but the feeling is warm and homey.
And the breads are all not your typical sugar donuts and sausage buns.

(I own these three pictures)
 My friends and i went there around 7pm so by then the breads weren't so fresh anymore but that's just the outer part. The inside of the buns and pastries were still yummy to eat. And although it was late people still pack the bakery to buy Ficelle's bread.

(I do not own these three pictures)
Places like this normally make their own mushroom soup and boy do they know how to make their customers happy. The texture was thick and creamy and full of chunky mushrooms inside. It was made just nice and wouldn't be too rich to down it. This mushroom soup just topped Samosa's creamy mushroom soup.

A salad? Nope~ This is where you're wrong. 
It a Chicken Lasagna hidden under this forest of vegetables. I guess they knew i haven't been eating my veges lately so they had to make me make up for it. But once you reach the lasagna below, you wouldn't mind downing another forest of vegetables because it's totally worth it.

Spaghetti Aglio Olio with Mushrooms.
I'm sorry i don't know what to say about it because it was soooo delicious !
I'm a mushroom fan~ what can i say~

 (I own this picture)
Ficelle's pizza is unlike our Pizza Huts or Dominos. The crust is really crusty and the fillings are like an explosion of deliciousness in your mouth. This is a Cheesy Pizza and when i took a bite of the filling, all i could taste was cheese and not the dough. It was delicious as hell but too rich for me. If you're into cheesy food then you should try this when you visit Ficelle.

(I do not own these two pictures)

 Everyone loves dessert.
I don't know anyone who doesn't like dessert because if you don't like sweet, there's always bitter or sour desserts~

 Among all the BigBang members, TaeYang is the coolest.
Sorry GD, TOP, Seungri and Daesung.

 They might sound weird at first but the more i listen the more i liked them.
And i didn't know The Wanted came to Malaysia early this year !
The youngest member, Nathen Sykes, he may be 18 or 19 but his voice is OMG

JYJ, previously part of TVXQ, is like the gods of K-pop.
I can't wait to see them in person especially Junsu !

 The last time Avril Lavigne was here was back in 2008.
It's time for you to come back to Malaysia Avril !!

 Bruno Bruno Bruno...
He doesn't have the most perfect face but damn he's hot

2nd Korean Festival in Ampang, Malaysia

It was a warm Saturday evening on the 5th of November in Ampang, Malaysia and it was all by chance that my friends and I drove pass the Korean Town in Ampang Avenue to find that it was unusually crowded than before.

 
 Koreans filled the streets of Ampang Avenue like you've never seen before. 
K-pop music were being blasted on stage. Korean children running along with their toys and snacks in hand, Korean teenagers dressed up stylishly to be with their friends, and Korean uncles and aunties chatting away at a table filled with beer and soju. The atmosphere there made us feel like we were actually in Korea itself.

As you can see, the ajumas' are all working tirelessly to prepare their country's delicacies so that we Malaysians could have a taste of what's the fuss about Korean food.

Here we have an ajuma in orange t-shirt pounding the rice cake dough on a wooden board with a really big pounder. An ajuma in her traditional hanbuk cooking up some dukbokki for her hungry customers. An ajuma stretching across the sizzling hot grill to place skewers of spicy chicken meat on it. And then an ajuma in a cute yellow apron frying a sweet bun with sweet fillings inside on her hot pan. Our last ajuma with a cap is found also cooking up Korea's traditional snack food, dukbokki.

 You can never find better Korean food other than here. With all that's said, nothing was free at the Korean Festival and the food price wasn't anything like what our chee cheong fun cost. I'm talking RM5 for a stick of spicy chicken meat, I'm talking RM10 for a small cup of dukbokki, and I'm talking about RM6 for a bowl of Pat Bing Soo (shaved ice desert), its something like our ABC/ ais kacang here.

So if you're willing to spend for food then Ampang Avenue is the place you should visit for a pigout at their variety of BBQ restaurants. I highly recommend Han WooRi if you're looking for a upscale Korean BBQ restaurant with a nice environment.
