I won MIB 3 special screening tickets ... but ....

I am a frequent reader of Malaysian Women's Weekly and quite often that I have been winning some goodies from them by entering their contest .. lucky me :)


For the month of May edition, I won myself 4 passes of MIB 3 special screening tickets. The special screening was on last Saturday, 26th May, 11 am in Cineleisure, E-Curve. Since there were 4 passes, so I went with hb, bro and another friend of mine. 4 of us reached The Curve as early as 10 am, got ourselves Mcd breakfast and there we go, excitedly walked towards the E-Curve.


Waiting anxiously for the hall open, we needed to be abit 'kia-su' as it was a free seating. Well, we were lucky that we managed to grab good seats.


All of sudden, while we were still inside the cinema, chatting away while waiting for the show to start, the whole hall gone black ... hmmm ... Hb said " oh blackout " and I asked him " you sure ? " ... Anyway, we continued waiting patiently for almost 30 minutes and yet no one come in to make any announcement what is going on. So, I decided to walk out from the hall to check with the cinema's personnel, only to realise that the whole building has blackout !! OMG .... and I asked the personnel there " so what are we suppose to do ? Just wait ?" ... and yes, they replied me, " yes ma'am, just wait" .... So, not really happy with the reply I got but I knew that I couldn't hope for a better reply from them, I got back into the hall and wait.


After awhile, a lady who was suppose to be watching the show together with us, came in and inform us that she has just checked with the cinema supervisor that they will not be screening the show today and we were asked to leave. Check out for the next screening which they will be informing either via their FB page or website.


How dissapointed am I ... and when I got home, I send a FB message to the Women's Weekly to check with what will be the arrangement for us ... and, I just got a call from them that, I would need to go to their office again in Uptown to get the replacement tickets, and the tickets can only be used from Monday - Thursday. Well, you can hope much when these are freebies, and I have decided not to collect it as I won't want to trouble hb driving all the way there to collect the tickets which high possibility we won't be using it.


Well, I believe this is all fated and so, we decided to buy our own tickets and watch it over the weekend at our own conveniences :) ..... and hope luck will still stay with me and let me win bigger prizes ... hehehe ....

Hershey's Kisses Chocolate with Love ... :-)

Yes, hb just got back from Labuan for business trip ... Labuan, land of duty free so I jokingly told him, please buy chocolate back for me ya.

So thoughtful of him that he really did buy back for me .. and 2 big packets of Hershey's kisses chocolate. I am not sure if it is really cheap compared to buy it here, but anyhow, thought that count right ... :-)


Despite the 2 big packets, how am I gonna finish it all by myself, so i brought some over to office and share it with my colleagues ... :)


We got it installed !! ~ Maxis Home Fibre Internet

Have you all heard about Maxis Home Fibre Internet ? This is a fibre internet and wireless internet plans. Since we has been using Streamyx for years, and hb didn't want to upgrade to Unify after getting some negative comments. Therefore, we decided to give this a try :)

Well, we have just got this installed in our house last Friday. The Maxis Home personel was pretty efficient where they have called us numerous times to fix and re-confirmed with us on the appointment date. And, in fact, they have managed to offer us an earlier slot and hence, we got it installed by then :)

The whole installation process was pretty quick, it took only about 1 1/2 hours and there you go ! It is now ready to be used :)

Guess what, I was so excited and tried on to download movies as I have been getting feedback from friends that it is so convenient with the fast speed for downloading. Waste no time, I tried to download the series that I have been chasing, Grey's Anatomy Season 8, the full season, all 24 episodes. I started downloading on Friday evening, and fully completed by the next morning ... yoo hoo... this simply meant that more movies / shows to be downloaded ... :). In fact, hb loves to watch You Tube online, and we are so happy that it runs so smoothly that you need not wait for any buffering.

Oh ya, just to share with you that now will be the good time to upgrade to Maxis Fibre Internet as for a limited time you will be able to enjoy fibre internet at 10 Mbps for only RM 118 per month.

And, you will be also offered free allocated minutes to any Maxis mobile numbers and also free unlimited calls to Maxis fixed lines. It does offer many other benefits. Do check out from here .. :)

White Fungus Tong Sui for the weekend ... :)

Looking into my fridge, and found that I still have a few packets of white fungus used. Since I hardly cook nowadays, I seriously have no idea how can I finished it up.

So, I decided to make some tong sui over the weekend :) ... Reading from online that white fungus are beneficial too. It is nourishing and also cooling in view of the hot weather lately.

'Digged' my fridge for some longan, red dates and lotus seed, soaked the white fungus for awhile, and put everything into the slow cooker. Worries free that the tong sui will be ready by the next morning :) .. where you just need to add some rock sugar to sweeten it ... :)



It is our 4th ROM anniversary ... 3th May 2012

Time flies and we celebrated our 4th ROM anniversary early this month. Nothing special except that we decided just to go out for a simple dinner.

Life as usual, went to work and guess what, hubby offered to pick me after work (usually he will complain, KL so jam lah *as I am working in the centre of KL city).

We decided to have our dinner somewhere nearby at Top Hat Restaurant (http://www.top-hat-restaurants.com/)


Food that we ordered .. :)



Top Hat aka Pai Tee ... :)

Lamb shank

Chicken mushroom pie

Yummy chocolate truffles ice-cream ....
 And, guess what, if you have Citibank credit card, you will be offered 15% of your total bill ... :)

We both did enjoyed ourselves in this dinner and also with the lovely, peaceful ambience.

Thanks 4 our yesterdays (good/bad), I appreciate your love (ALWAYS) 2day & look forward to our tomorrows no matter what the world may bring! Happy Anniversary darling !! xoxo

Darling's 35th Birthday .... xoxo

Yes, we were back a day from Krabi a day before darling's birthday. Initial, darling said " no need to celebrate la, since we just got back from Krabi". But, being me who loves birthdays, I don't know why I felt very awkward if nothing is done on this special day.

In fact, before I went on leave, I have bought something for darling as his birthday pressie. I just can't tahan his old wallet (which was also pressie from me), so I decided to get him a new wallet instead.

On the 2nd March midnite, I secretly took out the beautifully wrapped pressie and gave it to him. Yes, he was very surprised instead as he expected no pressie after I have bought him the air ticket to Krabi .. haha ...


On the 3rd March evening, we decided to go out for dinner, and it has been quite awhile since we last visited Italianese, and we were also craving for some pastas, so there we go, Italianese in Sunway Pyramid.
Food that we have ordered ... :p




Caesar salad

Spagheti meat ball

Creamy fettucine

Of course, I felt that birthdays are not completed if it is without cake, and since it will be only 2 of us, therefore, I decided to get 2 pcs of cupcakes and let darling make a wish or wishes and blow the candle. In Sunway Pyramid, they have this stall called Cupcake Chic so I chose Red Velvet and another is some chocolatey flavour.


And, guess what, they do have birthday complimentary in Italianes. So, one of the waiter offered to give darling a piece of bread pudding. So, he will be blowing another candle again ... hahaha ... Such a happy man !!


Both of us were so full that we couldn't finish it so we gotto request the waiter to pack it :)

We both had a great nite and Happy Birthday my love .and many more happy returns in the coming years ... muack muack ....

Our relaxation trip to Krabi, Thailand ~ Day 3 & 4

Day 3 : As we have signed up for 2 days of island hopping, early of day 3, as usual, woke up by 7.30am, had breakfast at the hotel's coffee house then waited for the pick-up van at the hotel's lobby. We will be going to the James Bond island tour. So, the first island will be the James Bond island. It is a pretty small island, our local tour guide mentioned that it is not a good place for snokelling and also swimming as there were many rocks around, hence, kinda dangerous.


A beautiful island with beautiful rocks

After spending like 20 mins in this island, we moved on to the next island - Paradise Island. According to our tour guide, there were some film shooting here. A nice island for snokelling and of course, fish feeding session. A great experience though, as the fishes will be swimming all around you :)




We were in Paradise Island for about 40 minutes, then we moved on to tour around Hong Lagoon. We couldn't get down as apparently it is quite dangerous to get down. So, what you could do here is to just enjoy the beautiful view.



After touring around, the next and final stop will be Hong Island. We will be having our packed lunch here and gonna spend almost 3 hours in this island. Not much activities that you can do, but it will be your own free time, where you can swim, snokel, sun-bathing, or just sit down and relax.



By 4pm, time to depart and leave the island. We will be sent back to our hotel. Not letting our last night here, again, we just jumped into the pool once we reached our hotel :)

After relaxing by the pool for almost an hour, we then get ourselves to shower, and out we go to explore the Ao Nang town again.

With this hot and humid weather, it was such a relief to have CO-CO-NUT to cool down .. :)


This round, we gave the next door restaurant to Aree Ba Ba a try. I can't really recall the name but the food is so-so only, we still prefer Aree Ba Ba :)

After having our dinner, again, we walked around the Ao Nang town, and have a brisk walk back to hotel, and to pack !!

Day 4 : We will be flying back to KL ... back to reality .. this is usually the saddest part of any holiday. But, not so in rush as our flight will be in noon. Therefore, we were more relax this day, woke up slightly later, took tuk-tuk out to town to have Mcd breakfast. Then, back to hotel, to relax for awhile before check-out.

Hb did a airport transfer earlier, so, the driver was very punctual and we actually reached the airport much earlier than expected. What worst was, it was a small small airport, hence, nothing much to check out. But, luckily I brought along my novel so I could just 'waste' the 2 hours by reading while hb took a nap ! Guy being guy, can just nap at everywhere they are :)

Overall, we were satisfied with this trip, a really relaxing trip as compared to our previous HK trip where you spent whole day by exploring here and there.

Well, if you are looking for a relaxing holiday, Krabi will be an ideal choice :)


Our relaxation trip to Krabi, Thailand ~ Day 1 & 2

Air Asia was having RM 20 promotion somewhere in May 2011. And, guess what, the usual me, will not miss out any opportunity to grab this great deal. Therefore, waste no time, I managed to login and book us a trip to Krabi, which is also in conjuction with darling's birthday in March 2012. I decided to make this as a surprise birthday gift to him. Total spent for this booking is at RM 450.00 for 2 pax !!

Day 1 : Counting down to the days, and finally it reaches. On 28 Feb 2012, we departed to Krabi for a 4 days 3 nights relaxation trip :) ... Booked hotel from the Agoda.Com which I found that it does has better deal comparing if you direct booked through the hotel's website. So, after researching and getting informations from various blogs, I decided to book Areetara Resort. This resort is not in the centre of the Ao Nang town, but it is about 10 mins walk there, alternatively, you can easily get on the Tuk-Tuk to bring you to the town :) .. But, we were very happy with this resort as it is really far far away from the noise pollution from pubs and cafes, hence, we really had a great relaxation time.

Upon arrival, we quickly get ourselves to check-in to the hotel .. and guess what .. I booked a pool access room, which means, just slide open the sliding door, walked out to the balcony and you can just jump into the pool .. What a bliss ... :)

Once we have settled down, we went for a walk to the Ao Nang beach and town, as we started to hunt for food.

As we walked along the Ao Nang beach

Banana pancake (similar to our local roti pisang)

After having a short walk along the Ao Nang beach, we decided to get back to the hotel and what else, to SWIM !! 


After spending some time enjoying the pool, and we were quite tired of walking out to the town to get us dinner, therefore, hb suggested that we will just have our dinner at the hotel's coffee house.

Day 2 : As we have signed up 2 days of land arrangement i.e island hopping. Yes, we gonna spent 2 days out at the sea :). Woke up at 7.30 am, as they mentioned that the hotel pick-up will be at about 8.30am, got ourselves ready, had breakfast prepared by the hotel at the coffee house and yeah, we were all ready to go :)

While waiting for the pick-up, I took the opportunity to snap pictures of the hotel's surrounding.


The friendly reception :)
 By almost 8.45am, the pick-up 'truck' finally here, got ourselves on it and straight to the beach area. Waited for awhile, and there we go, to the speed boat and began of our adventure :). Our 1st day of island hopping will cover the Phi Phi Island tour i.e to Viking Cave, Pe Lai Thai Island, Maya Bay and of course, Phi Phi Island.


Hb and me on our way to the 1st island ... :)
 Passes by one of the famous island ~ Chicken Island. Know why it is called Chicken Island, check out the picture below.


One of the activities that we enjoyed ... snokelling in open sea. The view was really breathtaking and it was so beautiful ... :)


And, our final island stop, Phi Phi island. We spent quite sometime in this island, where you can simply walk around the island, swimming, snokelling etc.




By 4pm, we left Phi Phi Island, to get back to Ao Nang beach. It was a great day and experience, although, we suffered severe sun burnt !! :p

Back in hotel, again, we jumped into the pool, swim for about 30 mins and got ready for dinner. What for dinner? Well, as mentioned earlier, I have surveyed and read from various blogs, and found that they did recommend a 'makan' place which serves good food at reasonable price. The restaurant is called Aree Ba Ba. If you are not sure where it is, just tell the Tuk-Tuk 'driver' that you want to get to Mcdonald. The restaurant is located right opposite the Mcdonald.


Food that we ordered for 2 pax ... the squid was yummy :)
 After having such a fulfilling dinner, we decided to get a slow brisk walk back to hotel as we enjoyed through the night life around the Ao Nang town.

Our date with Jacky @ Jacky Cheung's 1/2 Century Concert ~ 11 Dec 2011

The day has finally here ... our lovely date with Jacky @ Jacky Cheung's 1/2 Century Concert. His concert tickets were really selling like hotcakes.

Anyway, as mentioned in the earlier post, I bought this concert tickets as a surprise pressie for darling for our 3rd wedding anniversary (by the way, Jacky is darling's idol). We went to the concerts with the other 2 couples.

The concert was scheduled to start at 8pm, at Stadium Bukit Jalil. So, we met up at about 6.30 pm to have dinner together and then went to the stadium together.

It was such an exciting night, as it was also our 1st time going for concert together. Yes, after  5 years of paktor-logy and 3 years of marriage ... :p

It was a numbered seat, and the crowds were so over-whelmed !!

Our tickets ... :)

Us, while waiting for the appearance of darling's idol ... :)

The ambience in the stadium was great ... as you can observed it from the pictures below ... :)



The overall show were really AWESOME and SUPERB. He is a superb amazing artist, that can dance and sing ... double thumbs up.




We really had a great night and the concert was really worth the money... :)
