  • Chinese New Year 2011

    Sorry that I'd been missing again. Happy Chinese New Year, peepz! Welcome to the Year of Rabbit! I hope it brings better luck to everyone. I do hope it brings better luck for me. Year of Tiger is very nice towards the Fire and Metal tiger. *sigh* It's my first CNY without you. I thought I got it through, but I don't think I have yet. Yen Aun mentioned about you and he paused. I know he miss you a lot! So do I. Everything is different without you here. The routine is still the same, but just without you. And of all the thought of applying longer leave.

    Okies, where should I begin? I had my Spanish exam on Saturday, 29th January 2011, and I nailed it!!~ *booooYEAAA* Well, that's also because Luis gave us lotsa "hints". After exam, we began our journey back to Penang, Mei Ping, Poh Ling jie jie, Uncle Robert and *moi*. Before reaching Simpang Pulai R&R......... I met with an accident. It wasn't that horrible, but my baby car is injurred, which means my wallet is badly burnt! This is one of those time when i need my dad!!~ *booohoooo* Usually he does all my car thingy but now................................. *sobz sobz*

    Reached home around 10pm, mom knew about it but she didn't scold me. Guess it's an advantage to be in this family! After all the unpacking and all, oooh yea... Mei Ping is staying over with me, s, we both head out for our food hunt!!~ First stop, KUEY TEOW BASAH!!~ My all time favourite supper! And Mei Ping agreed with the taste. It may look fugly, but it's tasty! Picciess is in Mei Ping's phone, but I think I posted it up lotsa time before. Next stop is drinking chinese tea to wash down the 'oil'.

      Opposite my Primary & High School...

      They serve nice Char Siu Pau!

      Pu-Er tea...

    First night and we went back home around 1am. Showered, play Nintendo DS and then sleep.
    The next day, we woke up around 9am, get ready, and went for breakfast just outside my house with my mom. Mei Ping eaten the cheapest with lotsa stuff inside the curry mee. Definitely cannot fine it in KL. Again, picciess is with Mei Ping, but you guys can view my Facebook for the picciess too.

    For lunch, we wanted to go for yam rice, but Poh Ling jie jie and the rest are coming over and asked us to go for grocery shopping, at Tesco. So, yeapz..... We missed it. But it's all good! We both were craving for KFC that time and we're saving our tummy for PUN CHOI at night!!~ We had dinner at Grand City Restaurant.


    I don't know what fried rice is this. I remember something about pork and kailan.

      WAH LAH!!~ My first Pun Choi!!~

     


    I'm missing it already!!~ Too bad for the late comers......

    We were so bloated that night that we decided to skip supper. But tomorrow, we had our yam rice!!~

      my favourite yam rice, still as good as it is. ^_^

    Mei Anne said she'll be reaching in like 2 hours time, so, we went to Tea Spa to wait for her while enjoying the nice Rose Tea and Herbal Egg.

      Rose tea, best for skin & complexion.

      The best herbal egg I'd ever tasted!~


    Picked up Mei Anne and we're heading over to Penang!

     
    First stop at Lorong Selamat Char Kuey Teow, because Mei Anne haven't eaten her lunch yet. Adrian Leong Ting Wei came over to meet up with us.

      Mei Ping loves the ice kacang here.


    Mei Anne & *moi* (ooooh yea... I ka-boom-ed my hair! Still getting used to it)

      Mei Ping waiting for her char kuey teow!

    Then, we started to round and round and round the island to look for The Chocolate Boutique........


    And Mei Ping got amazed with the street's name, such as............... Love Lane.


    Finally found the place!!~ Sorry, no picciess are allowed to be taken inside the shop. After all the food, we still manage to test all the chocolates in the shop! *YESHHH*

      And we bought lots!


    I personally love and bought the espresso dark chocolate......

      and potato chip chocolate!
     
    Then, we wanted to go for tong shui behind New World's Park, but it was closed. So, we hunt for coconut!!~

      Reached Abu Siti Lane for coconut drink and.........

     
    coconut jelly! Mei Ping is hooked up to this, keeps on bugging for more. Hahahaha! Next round la....

     
    She's amazed with the man chopping the coconut to make it into a spoon.

      Greedy me!

      It's mis primas time!

    After feeling kinda satiated, we headed to Northam Beach for dinner. We ordered something light since we were already eating from morning.

      Had chicken sausage with cheese.....

      Orange juice....

      mua chi.....

      and takoyaki!

      It's about to rain, so we left the place.

      Guess where are we heading next?!?! Queen Elizabeth 2 !!

      Mei Anne had her tequilla.....

      Mei Ping had her mojito........

      and it's brainstorming time!!

     
    I can see the outcome of brainstorming while drinking - we come up with funny names!

      yeaaaa.... And someone ordered wedges!

    Then, it's loco time....

      who's the rabbit??

      and the butterfly....

     
    this piccie just tells me of Edwin Chiam howling towards the Heineken moon. Alcoholic in need of supply. LOL!

      I got no idea whether it's bird or goose??

      and our miss banker doesn't know how to spell and count 1-10

    Sent Mei Anne back and Mei Ping is staying another night with me. The next day was CNY eve. As usual, we will have reunion dinner at my uncle's place.

      Garden.....

      As usual, steamboat again....

      just like every other year....

     

      My favourite nephew, Yen Aun.....

     
    my bro said he rarely take picciess with me, so he's trying to take a pic that doesn't look fat nor short...

     
    for the first time, i ate quite a lot of dragon fruit...

     
    and this is how my Prince Cayenne turn out, white! He's no longer chocolate!!~ I still thinks the groomer bleach him!

    That's all for my CNY this year, the rest of the days were just prayers and dvds and tv and also chill out session with mis amigas! Met up with my peepz from high school. Lotsa catching up to do. And maybe of what that had happened to me, they don't see me as what I used to be anymore, and they also see things in a different manner. I'm not sure whether it is good or bad, but I hope for the good. The way you see things sum up a lot in your decision making.

    Going back to work soon. *urgh* Hated it! Especially when I'm horizontally-challenged right now. I don't know how to face people. Lotsa work definitely, back to hectic life in KL *sucky* Need to enroll for the next Spanish class, then have to search for dancing costumes for the dinner and performance on March. I'M BROKE! Not to mentioned I have to pay for my contact lenses and specs. *shootz*

    I did something drastic. I updated my resume, again! *sigh*

    Time to hit the sack, it's 2.30am. I only have 6 hours to sleep. Gonna wake up early to bring my car to service and sent my little monster to the groomers. More expenses!!~ *urgh* Nitey Nitez, peepz!

    *Te quiero y Te estrano - beso beso*

    Luv,
    *rachelle*
