Iqbal Iggy, my fren from brunei came to KL for a media trip so Sids & Andre rang me up to ask if I wanted to go out with them to One Utama. They picked me up in the afternoon from my house. I was shocked to see that there was so many people in front. Iggy and Sids (driver) in the front. Then Andre and three of her other KDU frens were all sitting on each other lap at the back. So in total there was 7 of us squeezed into a Hyundai Getz. I can so imagine the looks of people who saw the car I miss those Miri and KK days where we would squish everyone together.

We went for lunch at that No 8 place - where it sells japanese-style noodles. I wouldnt call it Ramen because it looks like normal maggi mee. I had something like mee kering with fried dumplings goyza.

After that we went to Lecka-lecka for some dessert - gelato. Andre had creme brulee - which tasted like honey - and baby blue - blue coloured sweetness. i didnt really taste it. Sids had something peachy. I had the berry dreams (i think). Its nice..not overwhelmingly sweet. Oh Iggy belanja. Thank you iggy *huggles*

After that we went to watch “Cars” at GSC. It really enjoyed the movie even tho the cinema was bloody cold. Worth watching it in the cinema. Even tho it might look a bit childish. I kno Erin someone actually cried out loud in the cinema at the touching part

I would be outstation to Seremban tomorrow (and maybe Penang on friday) for a translation job. Kinda nervous coz its the first time I have to do simultaneous translating - meaning that I have to directly translate spoken eng to BM. Would be back in the evenings (because its a day trip only) Cant wait for tomorrow nite coz im goin to zouk with my gal pals

Pandan Chicken Rice, Rojak buah and yummylicious Iced Tea

One day Pammye and I were deciding where to go for lunch. Then she thought of Rafflesia Chicken Hut in The Mall near PWTC. RCH is really popular in KK, Sabah. The two popular dishes are its Pandan Chicken Rice and Rojak Buah - which has this keropok thingy that I really like

Tried out the Iced Tea which tastes almost like the ‘zhen chu nai cha’ - pearl milky tea - minus the “pearls”. Its tea with milk and whipped cream on top. Really yummylicious! RCH at the mall isnt all that nice looking compared to the branches in KK. And it looked rather cramped at the end. But still, we managed to fulfill our RCH cravings.

After eating we headed on to Bangsar to do some eyebrow threading. Pammy wanted to try it for the first time and Im too lazy to pluck my own eyebrows so I leave it to the pros After that we were deciding where else to go and we settled for Amcorp Mall because I havent really walked around there. Except to the pool place upstairs and Starbucks - which is really the worst Starbucks I’ve tasted because they dont mix it right.

Went to see all the clothes butiques and all the other shops. Pam bought a really nice white bag for like less than RM50. After that we headed on to her house to pick up some things (because she’s staying over at my house tonite) and rested for a few hours.

I am sooo craving for good, rich chocolate. Melt-in-your-mouth, fattening, almost-as-good-as-sex (ALMOST!), makes-me-extreamly-happy goodness. I lurve all kinds of chocolate - except those cheap tasting malaysian made ones (yucks!!!). However, the two top chocolates that I love are:

Cherry Ripes

Block full of cherries and moist coconut, and smothered in rich Old Gold Dark Chocolate ~ Cadbury Aus

Daim

A Swedish bite-size confection of milk-chocolate-covered crunchy caramel with specks of almonds. Originally made by a company called Freia Marabou, they have been a popular treat in Scandinavia since 1952. The French discovered them by way of IKEA, who was the sole importer for quite a while.

The former is only available in Australia Cadbury doesnt export them. The last time i ate one was in 2002 or so when I went holidaying in Brisbane.
Daims are a tad pricy

I was bored and was busy downloading brushes for Photoshop CS. Its lots of fun tinkering with the editing of photos. Koreked Nik’s profile coz I had to intro him with Pammylicious and I saw this pic of him with the caption “The Grim and Gritty Streets of Sin City” so I decided to actually make it have that sin city feel. What do u guys think?

I needed an “interesting subject” to test my new brushes on so this pic became my mangsa (thanks to Isla who passed me the pic). Raffy is sooo goin to kill me for this~!!

I found this new template I really really like. Made some adjustments with it. AM very satisfied with the results tho I havent added the links yet coz im too lazy.

These few days has been filled with mostly football and lepaking with Pammy and her friends. We went over to Hartamas on Sunday night to meet up with the infamous JengPam’s half-arab best fren whom I’ve heard so much about. We brought Cass along (she’s on holiday too). Tot we were juz meeting up with a few people not to mention can cuci mata also at Hartamas Sq.

There was more people that we expected because Jeng invited his friends as well since its his first nite back from Egypt (where he bought a shisha bottle from Pam - gila happy minah tu). Had my first meal of the day - didnt take breakfast or lunch - Spaghetti Alfredo with Salmon. Yummy!! After sending Jeng back to Shah Alam & Cass back to PJ, we met up with arip & poks at Mosin to watch yet another game.

I watched the brazil match the other day at home. Didnt join the guys at Mosin this time. Makan popcorn sambil tgk bola best woo. I think Crotia did a good job at defending, it was hard for Brazil to make a goal. BUt of course I dont want to comment much on it. I will comment on something I do know and that is : Kaka was sooo hot hot hot!! Esp the last part where he took off his jersey. Sweet.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I downloaded this really cool plug-in/extension for Firefox. Its for instant match updates. As you can see from the screenshot, theres a list of the upcoming games on the left sidebar and the hot news. Then at the Status bar at the bottom it shows the current game and the time. It pops up notifications of Yellow & Red Cards and also Goals and also when its time. Oh and you can also change the skin to the different countries, the one Im using is Brasil (but of course)

Download it here

I’ve been feeling a little under the weather lately. Not feeling so well, got flu and what not. He hasn’t replied my textes for 3-4 days now and when I call the alasan is no credit. Kinda feeling pening and havent been eating well also. Must be lack of proper sleep.

Oh before saturday, Pammy and I was at starbucks Ikano for 2 nights in a row, wed and thursday because she had to do her work. We went there around 10.30-ish then hang around there until it closed. Borak2 with Khad who’s working there after he finished work.

And of course, took some pics

Last saturday I went for a girls day out with Aree and Erin at Sunway Piramid. Its been ages since we all went out together-gether. Aree told me it was at 3pm but due to transport problems, only reached there at 3.30pm or so. Aree told erin that it was 2pm so she came much earlier. Poor girl had to wait for solong. Aree herself came at 4-something-pm coz she was stuck at her apartment in cyberia due to the malfunction of the electronic gate. It was the first time i saw aree with her new big hair and I think it suits her really well.

Had a late and heavy lunch at Dave’s Deli. Aree had potato salad and spaghetti alfredo, erin had a potato salad coz she ate already. And i had a quarter chicken set with a side order of mac and cheese and ice lemon tea (RM18). The potato salad is yummylicious with not too much mayonaise and best of all, it had crunchy bacon strips. Downside: too small portion. The alfredo sauce for the spaghetti is slightly more watery that I’d like but it tasted good with none of that overwhelming cheese taste.

My chicken tasted..just like chicken but there was too much sauce and the sauce was slightly salty. The coleslaw was ok (but i dont really eat coleslaw so I gave it to erin and aree) and the mashed potatoes was too little and was practically drowning in the sauce (which they gave too much of). The mac and cheese (pic on bottom right) was boiled macaroni mixed with the alfredo sauce and sprinkled with some grated cheese.

Verdict: For chicken, better eat at Kenny Sia Rogers. For spaghetti alfredo, Hartamas Square is still the best. Potato salad is tops.

After that we went to jalan jalan around sunway, went to FOS to try out some tops and the 2 gals bought some really gorgeous tops. Nothing really caught my fancy so I didnt get anything. Juz walked around browsing. Oh, i bumped into Cassandra who was with a friend and teased her about how she was supposed to be “busy” studying for her last paper on the 1st of June look who’s talking. lol!.

From sunway we decided to drop by the The Curve’s flea market. We were kinda late,it was after 9pm when we reached. Some of the shops were closed or closing by that time but we still had enough time to browse around (i think someone bought some jewellery) and i noticed Cineleisure was opened. but looks kinda empty inside tho there was some people walking in and out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After that we went to hartamas coz I was supposed to meet up with some chatters. It was rainign cats and dogs, and we had to walk thru the rain and was drenched coz there was no parking near hartamas square.

I had this assumption we were meeting up with 4-5 people, namely joe, farah, rei, faiz & evelyn. Little did i know there was a huge bunch of people (joe invited everyone he knew) and we ended up being almost 20 people - 10 of which i didnt even talk to. Farah came with 5 other ppl, including Ally, Is and fren, i brought erin & aree, dakwan & mato turned up, evie brought her cute bf & her sis, and the rest were joe’s friends. we (the people I knew) had a lot of fun talking and laughing until tekak kering

We were noisy, teasing most of the time, snapping pics (smua cam whore), making jokes about people, checking out the hot guys and girls, screaming at each other over the noise of the rain, buat-buat tak dengar when someone talks to us, comparing boobs sizes, comparing which chatter was the ugliest and laughing mcm org gila tak ingat dunia. if you were at hartamas, and there was this big group of orang gilas, yep, its Us.

Joe’s fren, Jeng, sent me back home (thank you jeng) when we all decided to go back at 3am. I was kinda dissapointed it was so early - coz when i go out i tak pandai balik before subuh, but everyone wanted to go back so takpe lah.

On another note, I MIGHT be changing my blog address soon

I went all the way to class today then found out I didnt have classes so had to go back and cook lunch for the girls at home. Decided to make lasagne, stopped by at Tesco to grab some ingredients and went back.

Had a willing slave helper ["Will work for lasagne" ~Garfield] to help me wash dishes & cut onions as i prepared the lasagne. Fried diced bombay onions, added the minced beef sampai masak, then added tomato paste (puree) before adding oregano & basil. Melted some butter in a pot, add flour, add milk & add cheese to make cheese sauce. Layered lasagne sheets, meat & cheese sauce in 2 pyrex pans and bake for 30-40 mins at 180 degrees celcius.

Before and after. Left one is slightly burnt over-browned

And there 2 have 2 yummylicious lasagne. Nick took some back for Erin and the girls and I had lunch. Still a lot left tho..
