My burgerlab

                             

  

                                 

Longest jam, moderate queue, longest waiting...  however! It's worth the wait! :)
This burger restaurant is located in Seapark. If you go from old klang road or  Sunway. Remember to use Jalan Gasing. Me and my friends were stuck in the jam outside Assunta roundabout for about 45 mins. Not moving at all!!!!! Not good not good!
Luckily, my friend chee Weng is smart enough to escape by using an alternative route. GPS helps a lot! Thank you!! Save up a lot of time! :)

                                   

Once we got there, we''re welcomed by the big crowds in the restaurant.. lol.. it's so packed!!!!! We were there at about 8.20pm on a weekday.  That crowd is a weekend crowd!! Not during weekday dude! Unfortunately, not in this restaurant!  *small tips: please go before 6 or.. try your luck!*

                                       

I've chosen beautify mess recommended by a friend of my. It was amazing!!
Absolutely love the juicy beef patty and rosemary sprinkled fries! Yummy!!! 

Did i mention the delicate amount of swiss cheese they put in? my oh my!

                                      

I pair it up with a bottle of fruit juice. A mixture of green apple, lemongrass and rambutan ( a type of Malaysian fruit). It tasted a little sourish and the hint of lemongrass in the drink is yum! However, not most of my friends like the taste. Green apple.. ahh.. my saliva is dripping! heh.. If you're not a fan of fruit juices. They offer carbonated drinks as well, REFILLABLE. 0.0 another reason to go? :) 

                          
                            My lovely high school mates. How i miss highschool.. :/

Blessed

                                         

Never felt so contented with my family, friends and things that I have right now. I guess this is one of the benefits of studying abroad? Heh. . Being away from home make you realized all the matters that you've taken for granted. Do u hate your mom nagging you to eat more during dinner time? What about    her waking you up in the morning so that you aren't late for class? Well.. all these will do be the same when you're 3955 miles away. You've gotta stay strong even though you're tired. You have to cook, wash clothes, do assignments.. what not... EVEN THOUGH deep in your heart you're not freaking willing to. 

That's life. ;')  

But luckily, you still can call home. I can still remember 10 months ago when home sick first strike me..  Just normal conversation with my mom makes me felt so loved. Yes, indeed.  When i'm talking to her.. I secretly cried over the phone.. Sometimes she might noticed. But deep in my heart.. I hope she didnt find out. Not wanting her to worried..  

And now! Im back! oh gosh! loving every single bit of being at home. 

If you wonder what do I miss the most from Malaysia.

I reckon that would be 'mamak'! 

The best hang out place you could find. *for me*

Well, imagine sitting with a bunch of close friends, eating the best food you could find *cheese naan* 

and talk your lung out about everything you could possibly think of. Ahhhhhhh.... that's life.

It's relaxing, it's entertaining, it's part of me. :)

Of course, in fact, the most important element in the experience is your FRIENDS. :) 

Volcano trip

                         

I went for a mini getaway out to Bandung, Indonesia last weekend. I definitely love the place! It's about 3 hours flight from Kuala Lumpur to Bandung. Once me and my parents landed the airport, the weather ain't that kind to us. :( it started to pour a little..
Luckily the hotel that we suppose to stay in  offer transport from the local airport to hotel for free!!!! 
I personally think that it's a very good service one hotel could provide. Imagine when you're new to a country. You wouldn't know where to go and for me I'm rather not brave enough to explore the local taxi.  U know, being worried for extra charges safety and etc.. however, if u really need a cab in Indonesia. Try taking Blue Bird taxi company. It's one of the top taxi company that's safe and renowned for the polite taxi drivers! :) 

I stayed for 2 nights in Padma Hotel. I'm amazed myself by the spectacular view this hotel offer. Mind you it may not be one of those international hotels like Hilton, Grand Hyatt. Sometimes I prefer locally owned hotels. One of the reason is to experience authentic cultures and secondly, it is comparably cheaper! Travelling on budget sometimes gives you opportunity to explore further! 

The hotel pool and the exterior of the building 

zomg! i love glass staircase! 

I camp in this egg for quite sometime.. *relax while reading a book and sip a cup of peach tea* *ahhhhh* 

A panorama view of zhe resort. :) 

while waiting for zhe bus... beware of the traffic in Bandung and Jakarta on Saturday.. It's terrible! Literally not moving at all.... 

*can i bring zhe egg nest back home??*  0.0 

         

                                        The bewildering view from level 1 


                     

                                                         spot me!! :p 

*white pony with pink crest!! *

*yours truly* 

*enjoying my breakfast. There's two section in the restaurant: Indonesian cuisine and Western cuisine. Spoiled with choices!!*  

Kampung Daun 

This restaurant is soooooo fun! It's literally build in the forest! There's 30 over pondok (small houses) along the path stretch. So close to nature and greens, eating never been so relaxing before!

*not so mainstream grass like Christmas tree*

 

*spot cotton candy and kue putu!*

*kue putu, similar with Malaysian putu mayam, it's filled with gula melaka and topped with coconut flakes YUM!* 

*Along the path. Look at the greens!*

*kerak telor, this is a local Betawi street food. Contain duck egg, fried scallop, tiny prawn and glutinuous rice.*

*Teh Poci, similar with jasmine tea or scented tea we drink in Malaysia. :) *

*made of different sizes of bamboo. simply artistic! *

*spot Santa!!! too cute! * 

Counting down

Hello!
In another 48 hours I will be on board and home sweet home! That means.. finally I'm going back to Malaysia!!! There's so much to anticipate! I'm excited, worried, anxious at the same time. Mixed feeling, as much as a bigger part of me wanted to go home. Lil did I know that I might wanna stay in Melbourne for a little longer. I've just met some new friends here and I felt there's a lot to catch up with them! Most of the new friends I've meet are either from Japan, Taiwan, Korea, Brazil, Italy.

It's really fun to learn cultures from different country and constantly asking how to I say that in your language sort of thing! Haha..   I had picnic in royal botanical garden with them last Sunday. It was divine to relax in the midst of the park with lakes and beautiful weather. The warm sun shines through and I just love to see the people around me! Everyone was having a good time! Now, I've realized in life, you don't have to spend a lot of money to gain happiness. Most of the time, it's free! Look around, friendships, environment, ambience. It depends on you to look deeper and search for higher levels of happiness apart from materials that make you feel good! :)

I always wonder will it be the same if I go back home. I've seen people changed, and to be honest. I'm paranoid of changes. Coz it makes me feels uneasy when things are out of control.
When I'm home, I know that my family would be glad to have me home. I know that my friends would welcome either..  but, it feels like everyone else have got their own stuff to do. It didn't seems to be.. together any more! Worse still! Kenneth is working!! :( meh. .
So I planned to work part time when I'm back home.. :) 
Besides, there's so many food and things I wanted to do when I'm back!
However, talking about food..  ever since I've came to Melbourne. . I've gained so much weight. I never thought I will end uo being so fat! Pwft!  I hate people judging me and  comment on how much weight I've gain! *enough of that*  I just wanna hide behind my parents and not face the world.. despite any matters..   baha. . Til then! Tata! 

dream list!

yeppo!! :)

While i was talking with my housemate today, i realized there are plenty of places and things that i want to do before i die. Thus, here goes the list! 

                                               1) Travel to Tibet!!! 

This is one of the few places that i die to go! I mean. The scenery, energy of the place and the OHMness! Every single person who went to Tibet told me that, you will feel the sense of calmness, the peace in mind after the trip. I am certainly looking forward to sit in the corner of the wooden house in Tibet, relax and sip in some tibetan milk tea! 

This is the famous Lhasa temple. Look at the sacred, magnificent view! 

2) Sky diving! 

Although I'm not acrophobia.. yet i think anyone will takes a lot  of courage to be able to do this! jumping out of the plane from an average 14,000 ft high up?! WTF!!!!!!!!! I definitely will record it down and make it as my life achievements. Anyone care to accompany me? Although they do offer it in quite a number of locations in Melbourne. But i thought of doing it in somewhere, special? Some places with impeccable view and... even if i die.. i still see  some.. breathtaking view *at least* 

Perhaps.. i will have this sort of reaction when i first jump? lol... 

As for the venue.. Im hoping to go either New Zealand Taupo or Hawaii? These are few of the best places to skydive i reckon! 

3) Bungee jump 

For this, it's pretty similar with skydiving.. And probably i will accomplish this before proceeding to skydiving for a pre-acknowledgment for myself! 

Woohoo!!! here we go!!!  Life need to have some trill, to prove that you're living in this world. To be amazed how wonderful the world is. And i believe by doing these exciting activities. it gives me motivation to live a better life. To be positive everyday and wanting to strive better for work and personal goals!  

4) Swim with dolphins! 

Since young i find dolphins as  an amazing creature. They are the smartest animal in the world! Besides, I have been watching too many movies about dolphins! Hence I fantasize to be able to swim with them one day!! :) 

Kisses!!! <3 

5) Ride on a Hot air balloon!!

Have you guys watched UP? 

That's one of the cutest, romantic cartoon that I fond to. It's one of the few cartoon movie that caught me in tears.. *sniff*   From there, I was determined to go UP UP in the sky and look down the world while hugging my love one looking down the world. *day dreaming* 

Well.. i guess. if no one wants to go with me. I might just go myself! #foreveralone.

This it is! BLUE SKY, cotton candy fluffy clouds, green hills.. ahhh~ 

Well, I'm pretty sure i will have more as day past. Let's hope I'm able to do these first! :) 

Have a good day everyone! Put a smile on your face before leaving your house! 

Hardware society.

Hey penguins!! How's your day been?! :)
It's only Tuesday.. and I'm already looking forward for Friday to come.. >.< though I love my job. As a casual childcare staff... being surrounded by kids for 8 hours a day is fun and tiring at the same time! Just couldn't keep up with their every level. I need red bull to boost up myself!! 
So! I went to hardware society for brunch last Sunday with my friend Marcus! Waited for about 40 mins for our seats but it's definitely worth the wait! I like where we are placed! It's right in front of the kitchen! Watching the chef robot.like speed making delicious looking food. Oh my god! It just amazed me! I felt like I'm watching master chef live version! Hehe.. also, I get to see what's nice and what's not.. though I really want to try all their dishes!
I finally decided on baked eggs and Marcus had roasted pork belly. Both of them tasted not bad. But I would have prefer the pork belly! It's tender and juicy! Also, it comes with pouch egg!! Raise your hand if you like pouch egg!! I thought it was rather healthy as compared to fried egg. U get to taste the originality of the egg as well!!!
Also, the French earl grey tea is magnificent! I like the smell of earl grey! It has a unique aroma. Wakes me up right away! :) not to forget the Spanish donut! Its so tiny... I would wanna have more!!!!
After our brunch, we decided to get to Victoria market for Malaysian festival.. I was expecting authentic Malaysian food like kiuh-miuh ( Malaysian dessert) roti canai (bread) and many more. But it's turns out to be quite disappointing.. :/ I tried the coconut water and it is as bland as plain water.. the queue for satay was wayyyyyyy to long. So we didn't bother to queue up for it.. imagine the line was across 5 stores?!?!  No way! Other than that, nothing much attracts me.. to call it as Malaysian festival, why not name it as Asian festival? Because most of the stores I saw there is selling Indonesian crusine!!  Sigh..  missing home much!!
Till then!
Xx

Emo nemo

I just don't feel good today. When I'm in work. I put my game face on and smile to everyone I see. When people asked how's my day. What do they expect actually? How do I really feel for real? ARE YOU SURE? Sometimes I find this really funny. Why would you ask something that you aren't really interested to know? What if I really do tell u I had a bad day!? What if I tell you I'm really upset? Will there be people who will be concern and talk about it? Not much I guess..  I'm just mentally exhausted... I've tried to go for spiritual classes during the weekend and hope my negative emotions will be lessen. Yes, on that day... but after a couple of days.. the negative feelings will be back again! I'm not sure if it's from my work or its just me personally.. I need people. To comfort me. I need. To talk.. I need hugs..  perhaps..

Chilling Sunday.

Hello peeps!
When I woke up this morning! A thought came into my mind! I've decided to go Melbourne museum! Alone! Well, sounds cliche ain't it? Ever since I got to Melbourne. Traveling alone ain't a problem to me anymore.. I sort of like the feeling, that I'm able to decide where and when to go.. without waiting for others and the transition time of you're with a big group.. gahh.. really hate that! It's like a waste of time for me!! Hmph!
So, as soon as I gotten myself ready. I dashed off to the tram stop and waiting for my tram excitedly! Hop on to tram 35 (the city circle) and off I go! :)
Well.. students in Australia get benefits like this! Free entry!! Yay! 
There are a few main sections in the museum.. I was rather overwhelmed with the amount of artefacts I see.. woah.. wow.. ooooo.. that's my expression on my face! Haha.. 
It's fun to walk around in the museum as you get to touch and play with the hands-on experience setup. I was lost when I enter the animal kingdom area.. the massive amount of animal in this galary was... impressive! The interior of this museum is contemporary and sleek! Though it can be rather confusing when you''re in an area.. at times, I've got  lost.. just couldn't figure out where am I! Haha..
Oh! Not to forget the magnificent secret forest. I think it has an impact on educating people to preserve the forest.. it is very calming in this area..I sat back awhile to enjoy the calmness, love to relax abit and relief my sore legs!  It's amazing to have a place like this near the city, where you get to feel the Zen from the tress.. breathing in fresh air and the coolness from the forest is appeasing!

dream.

Good night world. It's been utterly exhausting. It's been long since I felt soulless like this. How could kindergarten kids be drenching yourself so much? Please help!

Of unicorns, teddy bears and screaming rides.

Hi peeps! :) I'm so proud of myself for working 9 and a half hour today! Woohoo!!
So how have your weekend been?
I had a really good one coz I went to the Royal Melbourne Showground!! Yay!!!!
So.. what's this about??  Its like a massive version of fun fair with loads of stuffs to play! For instances, rides for both Kids and adults, petting cute animals, eat, play, fun... and buy!! Did I mention showbags??
It's like a goodie bags with lollis, chocs, toys... could be anything!! You name it!! :) 
Well, enough of yappies!
Picture time!!

u like long distance relationship?

Hi everyone! How's your day been so far? Hope it's a good day for you! melbourne's weather is having PMS today.. Just hate it when you forgot your umbrella in such a day!

So, back to my topic! Are you in a relationship now? If you are,  is it a long distance relationship? well.. stay tune to this post and i'm gonna talk more my own experience. 

I have been with my current boyfriend, Kenneth for more than 3 years and from the starting of february this year, i'm undergoing this fucked up long distances r/ship thingy...  I've now left Malaysia for more than 8 months.. and i can tell you. Im still not used to being away from him.  God knows how long we will last and how far can we go.  

THINGS JUST AREN'T THE SAME WHEN WE'RE APART!!! 

Sure, u might find the advancement of technology distracting love sick a lil. However, as days past. 

You are all alone in a foreign country, you will feel lonely, you look forward to companionship, you NEED people to comfort your feelings and you definitely need people to talk to. IF you're here with a bunch of friends.. Loneliness might not strike you, it stoke hard on me. The amount of msges ain't gonna be enough for me.. I have gotta admit that i'm a very needy person. Relationship need space, but not distance.   How much does it apply on you? 

It is really something that you need to consider beforehand if you're planning to study abroad. If you think you aren't able to handle it. leave it as soon as you could. I have seen friends of mine who are suffering. Of course, it is easier to be said than done.  People might think that as long as it's true love. All it takes is just honesty, have faith in each other and stay strong. How many of you out there are able to do that? Ask yourself.  

I still love him. yes i do... I'm just unsure how much i can hold on to. what are my limit for our relationship.. if only,  he's here. How different it will be? 

I'm just.. waiting. following the flow and give in as many as i think i could... help me anyone?
