The Snow's Falling Down! ❄️

Hellooooooo~!
I'm finally updating my blog after thousands of years duhhh
The fact is, this post is probably going to last until the next December because it's my "exam year" next year and too sad I definitely won't allow myself to come back here and blabber about stuff before I'm officially a graduate.

Okie doke! It's time to share some experience with y'all. :) It is now the best time of the year (at least for me, it is) , DECEMBER!
Although I'm not a christian and I don't go to church to celebrate Christmas, well, since it's not illegal to celebrate it, why not? haha nonsense again.
I've always wanted to have an advent calendar for Christmas, so this year I bought myself one-which I share with my sister as well. It is actually getting myself to feel christmas-sy as Christmas gets nearer day by day.

So, here's a little video when I get to open it (well I always forget to film it)

Anyway, back to what I wanted to say, I went for a 2D1N trip at Malacca with my beloved friends at 29th Nov, which, was my first ever experience to go for a vacation with friends! Well, we couldn't really hang out with friends during our school days, let alone travelling and having sleepovers all by ourselves. It was actually a huge success for all of us. Yay!

We were staying at a hostel, called the Mini Sayang Residence, which is actually one of the "whole-house" hostel owned by Sayang Sayang. It is basically an old house at Malacca which had been transformed into a hostel for tourists -or a group of them haha :p
Well, I couldn't say that it is really good since the house is quite old I believe, but to be honest, it was better than what we had expected. It was obviously not a 5-star-hotel, what else do you expect? At least they served perfect wifi connection for 2 days. hehe

Day 1 | 29th Nov

When we first arrived at Malacca, the first thing to do was to fill our empty tummy after such a long journey. So, we managed to have our lunch at a random restaurant which serves chicken rice ( nope, not chicken rice balls ), which turned out to be really good, surprisingly. Then, we headed towards the Malacca Zoo, which CH had been requesting since our planning started. (although I still couldn't get the reason he kept clinging to visit the zoo)

The zoo, I'm SORRY but it was quite disappointing, as if you had been to Singapore Zoo, I don't think you would ever love the Malaysia's version. It seemed like the zookeeper hadn't been cleaning their cages or even replacing their food. The worst thing was that some of the cage had been emptied "temporarily". :( Anyway, I still enjoy how our time had been spent there. The good thing is that Ian is the talkative one (sorry man :p), which we wouldn't be bored as hell while exploring the zoo. Oh ya, and we decide to separate into 2 groups, apparently boys and girls, but strangely we still bumped into each other so frequent that we ended up strolling together at the end.

After struggling with the pouring rain and having done with all our exploring, we managed to get ourselves at our hostel at almost half past six in the evening, I guess? Then we decided to go straight to the Jonker Walk instead of queuing up to take a bath. We would leave that after we got back from Jonker st., wouldn't we? AND, the highlight for that day was ------------ Meeting up with XiangNing~! :D it had been so long since she moved to Malacca !

Skip that and now let's take a look at photossssss :D
(sorry if it's blurry, I wasn't using DSLR hahahahahahahha)
This is taken on a bridge near our hostel :D


Isn't it pretty?

We were being dragged to try out satay celup thanks to xiangning. :P Since it was already 11 at night, I was really tired and I just wanted to stick inside our hostel but xiangning managed to get all of us out for satay celup HAHA what a great success. xD WELL I WAS ALREADY ASLEEP IN MY MIND THO. so don't ask me if it was good, I was just sleeping :P
SO... it was already 12 AM as we went back to our hostel, only then we started to queue for a bath xD THEN...of course, we chit-chat-ted until 3 in the morning, it was kind of crazy though, it had been a while since I stayed awake till 3 a.m. It was awesome, haha, perfect memory, for me.

DAY 2 | 30th Nov

I was the first..... girl, that woke up on day 2 ! woah~ hahaa All thanks to my carelessness ughh, I had forgotten to turn off my every-day-alarm-clock, which is why my phone rang at 5:45 in the morning, which was 2 hours after we slept (what da heck?). So I hugged my phone and fell asleep again XD, but I was already awake so I started scrolling my phone and finally went down to brush my teeth and hoped that I could walk along the riverside for a while. But, I couldn't just get out to the bridge all alone, so I waited till some of them were awake, brushed our teeth and had a stroll along the riverside. The air was quite refreshing but the river, somehow had became low tide, thus, the scenery along the river wasn't that good that morning.


We went to visit the St Paul's Hill and the A Famosa Fort. before we had to check out. Good view up at the St.Paul's Hill, it was not crowded because it was Monday which a lot of tourists would be leaving Malacca instead of visiting places like that.

I thought the stairs suits the grass really well, so yeap. :)






Still impressed by the carvings. woah.
aha~ caught a couple taking their wedding pictures haha :P
My favourite capture out of all for this trip

And so, we went back to our hostel, packed our backpacks, and...off we go!
We left our backpacks at the youth hostel when we checked out and headed towards the Dataran Pahlawan with a smaller bag ( a small sling bag for me ) so that we wouldn't have to shop around with huge backpacks. We also went to try our the mille crepe at Nadeje , Mahkota Parade, which is quite famous for their mille crepe. We spent almost half an hour waiting for a table for 9 of us.(haha...I bet the other customers were quite pissed..nah just joking) It was really good , I think their butter cream for the mille crepe is quite unique and different from what I had tried before. A little thumbs up for that. It was about RM12.90 per pcs , if I wasn't wrong.

Then, we walked back to the youth hostel and got on 2 taxis and headed towards the Melaka Sentral to have our advanced dinner and waited for our long-journey bus to take off, off to Larkin, and back to our home sweet home~! p/s: Causeway Link's bus wasn't too bad :P







love, ylea.

p/s:
I'm really excited for Christmas and I wish y'all an advanced Merry Christmas~! :D



hello from the other side.

April.

Some clarification here, this is a previous post. It's not like I decided to  repost it, but ermm I was clearing my previous posts and deleted some of themand then I saw this post which had been saved as draft since April, and when I click into it I realized it's actually an all-done post, so here it is! :) Sorry if this confused you.πŸ˜‹

HEY THERE!
It's time to share about FOOD again~! heh :P

So the first one, is the G Cafe, around Austin Height.

I went there at night so the photos might be a little dark. :)
BEAR ON! XD


Just to remind you that their glasses are not flat bottom haha you might drop it if it didn't get balance. :p 

YAY!!! Happiness is all about desserts~ hahaha this is all in a set but you need to go downstairs or you won't find this hehe :D And I ordered earl grey tea but it taste BITTER until I had to give up drinking .__.

Spent my night on 19th April at PL's house to celebrate KW's birthday~! I didn't buy the cake muahahah But it taste so GOOD!!! It's vanila I guess? but strawberry in the middle. :) But honestly it taste like strawberry milk with cake haha :P

AND THEN, here comes the funniest part where Joey and I went to the Euro Fun Park after the celebration without even telling them! opps SORRY~!

Tada~! The ferris wheel! I didn't get into this because we are short of time and this will waste a lot of time so yeah~
SKY RIDER! This is super nice. We enjoy this very much as the weather that day is windy but... kinda cold though xD
 Tokens~  The tokens actually cost a lot :( I'm seriously sad about that. A token costs RM2 and it costs at least 4 tokens for a game so.... TT
#selfietime xDD

GET AWAY.

Truly apologize as I had been ignoring my blog for such a long time. :P
#typicalexamcandidates
But yep,  I'm here again to update this blog! I was thinking hard to figure out which day or which events should I share it here and decided to blog about recent vacation, a REALLY short trip to Malacca in just ONE day. ha ha. Beware. I'm not sure how long I'm going to write, maybe it'll be shorter than other normal posts but, forgive me :P Just want to have a quick update here before I get into a busier period of time after this short holiday week.

14 Sept 2014. Malacca Trip.
As usual, we go to Malacca every year a.k.a annual trip of our family since there's a special public holiday (Malaysia Day). :)

It's a one day trip so we start off our day earlier than usual, and had a quick breakfast before we set off to Malacca. AND little funny thing is that as sis got her driving license already, she drove us up to Pagoh as a practice he he. It's actually quite good, for someone who just passed her driving test. Yay~ Thumb's up! Great work though :D After that our driver shift to dad and it started to rain. Super lucky that it didn't rain when sis was driving. xP

The road journey took about 2 hours more and there we arrived at Malacca! After getting our car parked near jonker street, we took our back pack and start our one day trip :) We wandered around jonker street and decided to fill up our tummy first :P We went to a normal hawker stall.( no idea where it is, I was still half awake half sleeping) And so, as we planned earlier, we went to pahlawan Mall first and came back to jonker around 3 or 4 pm to save time on not repeating our route in jonker.

We went to pahlawan mall through a shortcut from the A' Famosa.( the south entrance of the mall if I didn't get it wrong) AND just shopped around boutiques and random shops. I almost bought the Manchester United FC latest version of jersey but was not so sure about the price and the quality of it. Not sure if it's worth or maybe I should just buy that online. Any suggestions?
Sis bought a really nice blue squared pattern shirt and mum bought some cute little bottles of perfume.

It's time for lunch! After walking for such a long time we decided to just deal our lunch in the mall. We went to the Black Canyon Restaurant which serves Thai cuisine and we were attracted by the set meal to be honest. It's located just opposed to the Brands Outlet where you can actually see it once you stepped into the mall. ( but of course, the south entrance. )
We had SET D which serves stir-fried mixed vegetables, stir-fried glass noodles with seafood, green curry with 4 plates of rice.
Their food are of course, mostly spicy which makes me quite sad because the spiciness choke me. ( I really enjoy green curry by the way)

OOTD haha :P just a simple t-shirt with shorts and sport shoes! :D
Spotted this when we were on our way to the pahlawan mall. How lucky we were :P There were lots and kinds of food from different races or cultures in Malaysia. Most of them are F.O.C hehe but I didn't try any of them because... I don't know? hahaha
It's just like a culture festival there. AND it was actually more crowded than it's in the photo.
Saw this when we went back to jonker street from the mall. I first thought it was metal but then realize it was actually polystyrene.....okay, and somebody even poke it?πŸ˜’ I don't know, as you can see that big, white, round hole on his chest and realizing that it is NOT METAL.

This is a bistro I think? It looks quite special then others because other bistro would just make a balcony as it is along the river but this doesn't. haha

Night time was well spent in Jonker street,which we had been there for many times already, but still obsessed with it. I bought some bits and pieces this time as I planned to do so. :D
so yeap,
Obsession strikes again so I bought dream catchers again, black and white.
, some cute key chains and sticky notes.

 Bought this because they are too cute and sis decided to share with me MUAHAHAHA.
and this, cute little purse!

Finally had an update on here , hope you enjoy reading this!
Will update soon!
Lots of love, xx.
ylea.

Holidays Ended.

Ok. Finally I can have some time for my blog again. It's holiday!! I know it's March already and it's going to end soon, but well I have to admit that school life is too busy. Blog has become a leisure activity haha. So this blog post is basically a combination of days between February to March I think? Just a short update haha to get those spider webs away x)


I was scrolling through my camera album on my phone to gather everything up for this blog post. SO here we go!

THIS, I don't remember why did we go for this but yeah, it's just nice :P and also, don't ask for it's English name because I have no idea about that. In addition, this restaurant is located in Crystal Crown Hotel and you just need to walk upstairs and there it is!



RAMEN RAMEN! Non-nom! :D And yeah, I had a grilled salmon that time but didn't take a photo of it. :P
Not going to write anything here sorry so let the photos do the talking! x)

Just want to mention a lil' bit on this. Again, I don't remember the exact date (well my memory) but I guess it's on Saturday? Wirawan Daya for my school! It's marathon! wooyay!! So I attended this for my sport house- Juara heh. Even though I sprained my ankle that time, still won 44th yay! Although it's not even top 10,well all that matters is that I enjoy it very much :D Oh yeah, and here's the funny thing about my sister and me. Last year we attended this as well, and the number of two of us are exactly the same, if I didn't get wrong... it's J031 or something like that haha. Then I was wondering what will it be this year, oh well yes you are right we receive the same number again OMG. J047!! YEAH sorry kinda too excited over this :P Let's continue then~


I'm not going to say it's the first try on KFC haha it sounds so weird. This photo was taken last time when I was waiting for my cousin so we went to KFC that is just opposite to the Foon Yew High School. :D The scenery is actually really nice but ugh those rubbish and crows flying over here and there.... Arhem one more thing, for girls, make sure you tie up your hair before you eat hahaha the wind is strong you can't really eat as your hair will cover your whole face xDD


TADA~! So we went to Uncle Jang for advance birthday celebration for my dad! :D First attempt on Uncle Jang's food. We ordered it in normal flavour which is not so spicy because even the menu warn that if you're on first try don't try the spicy one because it's really really spicy. We added the BBQ chicken? Because for me, I can't really stand the spiciness opps. This one seems prefect for me :DD (the bottom one) It's really nice, even it's spicy but I enjoy it much~!

Last FRIDAY.
My sister and I went to Menu Please restaurant for lunch after my omega classes ended, along with grandpa and ZX.
 This was what I had for lunch~! It came along with lemon tea and soup of the day as a set which cost RM10 only :D Really delicious haha Their mushroom soup is so so so so nice! I wanted to order 1 more that time but I was so full after having the sandwich. :(

Their design and decorations are nice though. Love it~ Quite special :)

 Yesterday: grandpa fetched sis to omega while cousin and I left in Jusco and shop around. Wandering around in Harris for about an hour then went to 2nd floor for phone cover. THEN we went to J.CO to spend our time because we had to wait for about an hour more. I had a try on hot cappuccino and the tumbler is so cute :P obsessed with tumbler like that. Cousin had Iced Thai Tea because that's the only one she can see from the menu hahaha what a sad case because she didn't wear her specs.
Went to Cotton On after that. I really have to admit that I'm definitely a girl haha went crazy when I saw those shorts and shoes and clothes lol. 

Hope you enjoy reading this post because I have to admit that I was doing this quickly just want to have a short update after so long :P Please ignore if there's any grammar mistakes~ 

There you go!
-Goodbye~!
