New Year is around the corner!

Blog Ad:

With New Year (and my bird day XD) is coming around the corner, there's so much to celebrate! Anyhow I still don't have any solid plan what to do on my big day yet, so when i came across Kenny Sia's blog yesterday, it's just struck me "why not have a crazy night this year?!" Hence I'm blogging it to get a pair of tickets to this event. ^.^

There will be a huge new year countdown party at The Boulevard, Mid valley this year end. It's said to be the most throbbing, visually stimulating and magnificent countdown party of the year featuring international DJs from all over the world! Check out MidZone Countdown 2008 for ticket details. Published price: RM75 (Pre sale), RM100 (Door sale)
** 18 years and above only**

Had a crazy night out with my colleagues. It was our team dinner at the Italianies, The Curve. I didn't really expect much from the food as a result from my last visit. However, our crowd had a great hangout moment there!

Kevin was drinking non-stop, bottoms up countlessly =_=" but still managed to drive himself back (though i strongly disagree on drink-driving). We ordered enormous amount of food and desserts, the dessert taste yummy though we were so full haha...

Taiwan cuisine @The Gardens

met up with Kit Ying, Mui Siew and Jo the other day and had a long brunch at The Gardens Mid Valley. We decided to try out the Taiwan restaurant that opened recently.

It's something new for me, Taiwan food is still rare compare to other mainstream food like western, fastfood, japs etc

Some of the appetizers are quite exotic and not all of us might eat it such as the fried intestine and organs =_="


Ordered two pots of flower tea, i like the fragrant and it actually taste drinkable for once, the secret is you have to mix the flower with tea leaves like oolong.


salthy fried chicken set 盐酥鸡, crunchy with lots of MSG hehe...


3 cups chicken set 三杯鸡, taste like Gung Bou style 宫保 with mixture of white rice wine flavour yummy!


still sizzing hot yay!!


Minced pork set


Kit ying ordered the egg wrapped rice, Taiwan version of nasi pattaya haha...


Mui Siew ordered fried ribs bento set, crunchy!!





No it's not fried intestine hehe...


spring roll aka popiah lor...


we hadn't meet for a long time so had a really long girly chat there... started eating at 12pm and left at 3pm haha...refilled our teas countlessly haha...


last but not least fried salthy chicken again hehe...


Overall, i like the food and their comfort seating! ^.^

Cafe Cova @The Gardens

Eugene dined at the same restaurant at HK branch and highly recommend their dessert... how can a girl who has a sweet tooth resist dessert, so here i am at their latest branch at The Gardens Mid Valley...

Cozy atmosphere...





Stuffed chicken with mushroom... taste mediocre only and the portion is too small for my big stomach...hehe


I ordered the chef recommendation - Seafood spaghetti... taste alright but found that the clams were not fresh hence the fishy flavour... -_-


I like their tiramisu, not too sweet but still love Alexis's the most... They are opening soon at The Gardens as well, great news for me hehe...



Just had buffet at Jogoya cause they are having 50% off promotion for ladies, I seriously need to go on diet now, HELP!! =_="

I climbed a mountain (3)

finally we are climbing the mountain... hehe...

We woke up early at 3am =_=" then prepared ourselves to mount kk journey. Only found out that our driver ffk us... major bomb =_="

we wasted no time and called another driver, luckily he's kind enough to come pick us up provided that we pay extra amount ( another =_=")

anyway, here we were safe and sound on our way to mount kk....



yay... finally we reached kk park... looking excited, can't wait to get up there hehe...


breathtaking view...


we chose to go up by Mesilau trail and back on Timpohan trail... Mesilau trail is actually longer than Timpohan by 2km,
trust me, don't under estimate this 2km....


Group pic... still looking fresh and excited hehe...
mount kk here i come!!


the first 4kms was a rather pleasant journey, we can still camwhore when spotted any nice view hehe...


0.5km!!
there's a signboard every 500m, we took photos at almost every signboard haha...


I'm amazed!!


Still looking fresh to pose hehe...


first stop... pondok bambu
prepared our water with hydration salt...


Go go go....


2km!!


next stop...





feelin the breeze...


stopping at Pondok Nepenthes


Conquered 3km!!


after crossing the bridge is where the hard part begins.... =_="


starting to feel the tiredness...





the hanging bridge...


started to rain at 4km... we were wearing T-shirts and sport pants cause Sze Mun told us the weather is warmer than Genting Highland, and obviously we under estimated the weather!! It was freaking cold ok...


harder to climb each step...


I had to steal Siang's jacket and beanie cause mine was in the bag with porter....


I still managed to smile for photo even though i was dead tired and freezing cold... not bad yay!!


the journey got harder by inch approaching to Laban Rata, where we gonna stay for a night before climbing up to the peak.

I nearly couldn't feel my legs for the last 2km climb, I couldn't even feel the tiredness anymore cause all i felt was COLDNESS!!! freezing cold i tell ya and i'm not kidding, with the strong wind thrashing on us, my fingers and toes were numb. The wind was so strong I felt like twister was coming.... the hardest 2km journey I've ever been-___-

had to stop to refill our energy by munching our chocs....
no more camwhoring poses, we were NUMB to even smile ok...


RM10 fried rice... don't ask me whether it tasted nice or not cause basically you'll munch in whatever they sell after the horribly exhausting climb...


We reached Laban Rata at almost 7pm. It was freaking 9 hrs climb!! imagine walking 9 hrs already sound exhausted, what about climbing for 9hrs with TERRIBLE weather?!!

I finally knew what willpower means... physical got us through the first 5kms, Eddy said it was mental who got us through the last 2kms... I didn't know how i walk the last 500m, my mind was totally blank that time, thought I'll be gone in any second...

I was still trembling terribly after reaching the Laban Rata guest house, my hands were shaking without my control as if they weren't mine. I scared the freak out of my gang and our guide cause i was shaking hysterically the whole night at the restaurant. The guide was so afraid I would down to hypothermia.

The guest house closed at 10pm and didn't allow us to stay, so we had to drag ourselves to our little hut where we gonna stay for a night.

Our little hut with NO heater!!


Eddy said he couldn't sleep but we heard him snored in less than 5 minutes time =_= Siang gonna blow dry his jacket and knit gloves with Sze's hairdryer, where I used it to warm my feet and hands haha...

I couldn't sleep for the whole night and my feet were numb even after wearing socks, it was my worst sleep to date!! my piece of advise, DO NOT stay at the waras hut if you happened to go to mount kk!! You will have your worst nightmare there, scaring the hut will be blown away by the twister like strong wind and I'm not kidding!


To be continued...
