How did I do it?<b><i><span style="color: blue;">"How was it for you? Dealing and coping with the loss of a loved one?"</span></i></b><div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As someone who has experienced many losses in my life, this is the first time that I have had someone asked me this question. Then it made me think back of the time when I truly felt the feeling of losing someone so dear to me in 2007. How did I cope?</div>

To be honest, I did not look up any sort of self-help nor did I seek comfort in others. Yes they would offer their condolences and words of comfort but I felt that I just need some time on my own to let out all these feelings. Frankly speaking, I know that there are people who has not experience this, does not know how or what to say to make others similar to my situation feel better, so i'd rather save them the awks. I actually believe that you should and would be the best person to figure the best way to deal with grief. So yes, for me was to grief in silence, on my own. I'd spend nights (and sometimes days) crying on my own in my room. I did not hold back. I cried till my tissues turned soggy, I cried into my pillow till my pillow and blanket wet, my eyes and nose red and I would wake up the next day with swollen eyes but it felt good; I felt better.</div>

It started with denial. Not that I refused to believe, but I COULDN'T believe that he was gone. Yes, I asked why? I asked God Why? I asked the four walls in my room Why? Why him? I would even sometimes hope and pray that he will come back and I can see him again and perhaps have a short chat thinking that he might have some last words to tell me. I also wondered how I would react but to be honest I think I would be scared shitless.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
At the same time, I felt anger but no I did not blamed God for causing this accident and taking him away from us but I questioned the existent of God. Was I not religious enough? Did I not pray hard and sincerely enough? Did God not hear our prayers? In tough times like these, I questioned my faith. Perhaps that was when I started to fall out of my relationship with God.</div>

The process for me, felt like this: 1st - 2nd month since his passing was tough, I'd still think of him everyday to weekly and thinking back of all the times we had. 3rd - 5th month, it got better, but I still think of him.every now and then or when something reminds me of him. 6th month onwards, life is catching up, I still think of him but I slowly forget about the tragedy. The one year anniversary was the shittiest. I remember crying my eyes out. Then as months and years pass, I don't think of it anymore unless I choose to think of it (like now). I experienced losses of people I know after my brother and even though we may not be as close, I would be reminded of the day and the scene when my brother passed. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The scariest part for me is when I start to forget. I am scared. I am worried. Scared of the fact that my memories of him are starting to deteriorate. Worried that the only concrete memories that I can remember of him are photos but i can't make up the scene. When I look back at his photo(s) I would ask myself, "Was this how he looked like during this age/time?". I read back testimonials left by friends and families and I sometimes find myself saying "Oh yeah, this incident. Now I remember" or "How can I forget this". </div>

There is a popular saying "Time heals everything" but I beg to differ. In time, you just start to "let go" because life is catching up with you. You meet new friends, start a new semester, start a new job, filling your time with your hobbies and you will slowly forget but it does not truly and fully heal because every time when you think back, there will always be something that is missing. 12 years has passed, I still feel the same sorrow I felt on that fateful day. </div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Some or most of you might have known that I traveled to Italy in April. The trip was from 8 - 25 April (including flying time). I was tagging along with my sister and her colleague (they're wedding planners) as they had a conference to attend in Florence and then from 14 - 19 April, it was a Fam Trip with some 20 wedding planners from other parts of the world. Parts of Italy which we visited were Venice, Tuscany - Florence, Siena, Amalfi Coast, Rome.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Most Italians are able to converse in English but I found it helpful to learn some basic Italian so at least you can understand some of the signboards. I also downloaded this Dictionary app by Bravolol which I can search for phrases and words in English and it gets translated to Italian. Works the other way around too. My advise, seriously do not bring some 30kg luggage bag with you if you plan to travel to Italy (especially Venice). Cobblestone roads and stairs man. Travel light, you'll thank me for it.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We flew with Emirates via route Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL) - Dubai International Airport (DXB) -Fiumicino Airport (FCO). Total flight was 6 hours 55 mins KUL - DXB; 5 hours 5 mins layover at DXB; 6 hours 5 mins DXB - FCO. It was my first time flying with Emirates and rest assured you are well taken care of. Plus, you can check What's on your flight a day before you fly (which was what I did). Get details like your in-flight menu, entertainment, in-flight services etc. from Emirates' website. Upon check-in at KLIA, we were each given a food voucher which can be used at selected restaurants at Dubai airport. We thought that was really cool.</span></div>

It was 10.30pm, we walked around the airport and for me I made a mental note of the things I want to buy on my flight back to KL. That was just about it, not much to do there to fill up the remaining 4 hours there. There was complimentary 60 minutes WiFi access per device at the airport, friends and families in Malaysia are sleeping (time difference), so what are we going to do next? Nothing much, so we took turns to take a nap. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">After touching down, we collected our luggage, freshen up and headed over to take the train to Rome Termini train station as we had to take the train to Venice. The train ticket from FCO to Rome Termini was bought at the ticketing counter. We took <a href="http://www.italotreno.it/en" target="_blank">Italo</a> train to Venice which we bought in advanced online for RM60+ per ticket. Tickets are numbered and the price varies according to the category of coach. It is a high speed train, takes about 3 1/2 hours to Venice with limited stops at certain stations only. The cheaper alternative is <a href="http://www.trenitalia.com/tcom-en" target="_blank">Trenitalia</a> but that is much slower, it is the equivalent to the KTM in Malaysia. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So upon arrival at Rome Termini, we were lost. We did not know where to go as there were a few exits. We asked the guards that were around the area where is our platform as the online booking did not state the platform number. He said that the train platform number will only be announced on the train arrival screen 10 minutes before departure. Wow, Ok. We had about an hour to spare. So we just hung around the area. For some reason, it didn't felt like a train station, there was no signboards to direct us, it wasn't bustling with people. Until I had to go to the washroom, I asked the guard where is the toilet and he told me that it is at the "main train station". Then we realized, we were NOT at main station. We had to walk through a departmental store to reach the main station. It is hard to explain in words but it'll make more sense when you are there.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Sooooo... Someone bought the wrong train ticket. Our ticket disembarks at Venezia Mestre, which is the train station before Venezia Santa Lucia (our actual destination). We had to rush to the ticketing kiosk to buy the tickets to Santa Lucia. We took Trenitalia as that is the only train that goes to Santa Lucia from Mestre. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We had to move to another platform to take Trenitalia, so we had to go through the underground passageway. OK, so around the train station, you will see some guys standing around and eyeing you (I swear i'm not exaggerating). When we had to carry our luggage down the steps, some 3 guys approached us, offering to carry our luggage for us. They are very persistent but we said no. There were more of them at the bottom of the stairs! We just ignored them and rushed to our platform. One was following us at a distance but I think after he saw me staring at him and realizing that he won't get anything out of this, he gave up. I don't think that they're pickpockets, but these people will offer to carry your luggage and request for payment after that.</span></div>

One thing I noticed since the first day of our trip, public transportation in Italy is not very tourist friendly. As in, there are no clear signboards of where we can buy tickets, schedules, which pier to go to. It will be faster if you asked a police, staff or a local.</span></div>

It took us a while to navigate to ourselves to the right path to get to our Airbnb - Ca' Morosini I. There were so many bridges and small roads, take a wrong path and you might just end up taking a longer road. After that long journey from home, thankfully we found our hotel just in time before it started drizzling heavily.</span></div>

We were famished so we were en route to locate one of the restaurants recommended by Trip Advisor but unfortunately, we were unable to find it at the end of the day, we just bought food to-go and continued exploring Venice. We were pressed for time, so we wanted to take in as much Venice has to offer. We didn't had an itinerary or a plan either, we just decided to go with the flow.</span></div>

The pasta had a hint of sweetness to it and very generous with their sauce. We ordered one box to share among the three of us. Biggest regret ever. We should have gotten one each because we couldn't make it to their shop the next day as we had to catch our train. Fresh pasta, fresh sauce, must try ok!</span></div>

Uhmm, so we went in and the shop owner wasn't all that friendly. We didn't know what flavour we wanted but one of it caught our attention and it was called Panna Montata. We asked what it was and she told us that it's eggs, milk, sugar and some liquor. We thought, "Ooh, sounds interesting, let's get it". After we had our first taste, we realized that it's actually whipped cream! OMG, it was such a hilarious moment. Shame about the service though, the staff was cold and didn't offered any form of recommendation. </span></div>

From the looks of it, it looks like one of the popular gelato joints around the area. They have a wide selection of gelatos but we did not have any as we already had 2 gelatos. I researched about them back in Malaysia, and they are number one on Trip Advisor as the best dessert shop in Venice. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">There was a grocery shop on the way back so we went to check it out first. Little did we know, when we got it, it was dark. Well that escalated quickly. We were got worries as we don't know the way back. All we got was a physical map and Google map. Even with that, we still got lost. Venice at night can be quite intimidating. There are not many people to be seen on the streets, minimal street lights on some of the small roads. We were wandering around for almost 1 hour but managed to locate our hotel in the end. We told each other, let's not venture too far from the hotel that night so we ended up at Le Cafe, a restaurant located within the Campo San Stefano.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue light" , , "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;">You know how most people have the general conception that heels are the sexiest complement to a woman's wardrobe. Whether you agree with me or not, I love how a pair of boots gives a sexy edge to the person wearing it. I don't have an extensive collection of boots but just enough for me to spice up my wardrobe. If you are looking for a pair, you can check out these selection of </span><a href="http://www.zalora.com.my/women/shoes/ankle-boots/" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;" target="_blank">boots for women</a><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue light" , , "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif;"> . </span></div>

I'm a petite girl standing at a height of 155cm and even though I have dreams of wearing those long knee-length boots, I try to avoid them because you know 'fashion experts' advise that wearing long boots can make a short girl's figure look even shorter. Two years back when I was preparing for a family trip to Chiang Mai, I was told that the weather in Chiang Mai during December is winter so I figured (as any woman's impulse) I "need" to get a boots because it's winter. It wasn't easy to find a suitable boots for myself but low and behold, I managed to find a pair. It was those "love a first sight" kind of experience. It was a just below-the-knee flat boots which quite surprisingly, fitted well on my figure. Needless to say, I bought it!</div>

On days where I feel like i'm gonna (quote Queen Bey) Run The World, I would put on my pair of black ankle boots. I love how these boots really brings out the toughness to my overall wardrobe. Definitely a confidence booster. These are really versatile which can be paired with almost anything but I usually pair these pair of babies with shorts and skinny jeans. I have experimented pairing these boots with an asymmetrical skirt and a crop top for a sensual and tough look at the same time. </div>

While I do enjoy the comfort of my flat boots, I do like the idea of having a little more height. One other option to edge up my wardrobe is by pairing up with a leather wedged boots. I like to pair this with a skirt or a dress. To amp up my office wardrobe, I wore it with a bodycon dress. It's formal but not being too casual at the same time.</div>

Couple months back I decided to give one of these healthy food delivery services a go. Healthy food delivery services have evolved so much and there are so many options out there nowadays. Most require one to 2 days or even longer pre-order notice for them to prepare your food.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The reason that I flicked my switch to try it was because I was caught up in events for the past two months and getting home I just didn't felt like doing anything, hence, I didn't bothered preparing my meals but then, I still want to eat clean! Ugghh.. conflicted...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So among all the fishes in the sea, the one that caught my eye was Chopstick Diner.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So upon first impression, what was it that caught my attention?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ol>
<li>I can place my order a day before delivery date as long as it is before 10pm.</li>
<li>The simplicity of the ingredients</li>
<li>Interested to try their homemade sauces</li>
<li>The vibrancy of the meal itself</li>
</ol>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Priced at RM16.00 per lunchbox, I ordered 3 boxes to try. For orders above RM50.00 they offer free delivery provided it is within their delivery area, for orders below RM50.000, there is a delivery surcharge of RM5.00. I was also charged with an additional RM15.00 because my office's postal code does not fall within their delivery area which is <a dir="ltr" href="tel:46000%20-%2046200" x-apple-data-detectors-result="0" x-apple-data-detectors-type="telephone" x-apple-data-detectors="true">46000 - 46200</a>. Averaging it out, it costed RM22.00 per meal.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
My meal arrived around <span style="color: red;">11am </span>the next day. It arrived packaged with a note from Elaine Ho (the founder of Chopstick Diner) and each box comes with wooden chopsticks nicely tucked into a paper pocket.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
This was my first choice because I get to choose and try two types of meals in one lunchbox. Half of the lunch box are 2 Fresh Vietnamese Spring Rolls (each cut to halves) and the other half your choice of salad from their menu. I chose the Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b>Ingredients:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Salad: Lettuce, Parmesan cheese, beef bacon bits, croutons, 1 whole egg, grilled chicken and homemade caesar dressing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Vietnamese rolls: Rice vermecelli, grilled chicken, carrots, purple cabbage, lettuce, capsicum.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b>Verdict:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Salad: The ingredients were very fresh indeed. The lettuce were crisp and crunchy. You know how some croutons has the oily aftertaste but these croutons werent like that. The homemade dressing is liken to mayo texture but definitely less fattening. Glad that they separated the salad sauce so that I am able to add according to my liking.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Vietnamese rolls: The Vietnamese rolls were fresh and compact. It is to be paired with their homemade sauce which was paired well together plus it is spicy too.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b>Ingredients:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Lettuce, roasted eggplant and pumpkin, pomegranate jewels and homemade Tahini dressing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b>Verdict:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The pumpkin was really soft and it added a natural sweet flavour to the salad. I really liked the Tahini dressing at first as it adds the rich flavour to everything (the roasted eggplant was not seasoned), but half way through my meal, I felt that the Tahini dressing was too overpowering and was a little too creamy for my liking. </div>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b>Ingredients:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Lettuce, parmesan cheese, croutons, egg, smoked salmon and salad dressing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b>Verdict:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
The ingredients are basically the same as per the Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad. Instead of chicken, it's replaced with Smoked Salmon. The smoked salmon paired well with the salad dressing as well. Though I hoped that they would've given more smoked salmon (I was given one sheet of salmon slice)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Overall, aside the steep pricing, the taste is not bad. Besides the fresh ingredients, the homemade salad dressing was definitely the highlight of my meal. Salads are low cal meals, I am not so much of a salad kind of person as I prefer more wholesome and high protein meal. If you're looking for fast, healthy meals, no harm giving Chopstick Diner a go.</div>

To celebrate our 5th anniversary this year, I told the boyfie that I will choose the location! This conversation happened like half a year ago? I wanted to getaway to somewhere not to far to travel yet being away from the city. After some research, I found the one that appealed to me the most. I actually came across this place earlier last year while planning for our Monthniversary but then the place was already fully booked about one and a half months before my travel date! So guys and girls, if you want to head to The Dusun, book early!<br />
<br />
Buuutt hold your horses just yet. For room bookings 2 weeks and earlier requires patrons to have a minimum stay of 2 nights. Payment has to be made within 7 days in order for your room booking to be confirmed. You will need to fill up the booking form on their site and then they will send you an email to notify you on your booking details BUT it is not a confirmed booking until you make the payment within 7 days of the booking date. After 7 days, if payment has not been made, the booking will be void and they will release the room to other guests.<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; text-align: start;"> </span></div>

If you have any questions, feel free to send them an inquiry email as they are quite responsive. I sent them an inquiry via email and they got back to me within 2 hours.<br />

<span style="text-align: start;">It took approximately 1.5 to 2 hours to arrive at The Dusun. Although on their site it states that their location are untraceable via GPS but Waze managed to locate the destination. We also printed out the map which they provided in case. It is actually quite straight forward if you follow the map (and/or Waze). There are 2 entrances, the one we went to was the main entrance. Once you reach the gate entrance, you will need to call them to get them to open the gate for you. Mind you that the road from the entrance to The Dusun compound is very steep!</span></div>

We didn't use the seasoning other than the black pepper cause we had already have the marinade for our food.</div>

The toilet has the necessities - block soap, shampoo & bathing soap. It was kind of a turn off that the bathing soap was not refilled and was running low. The toilet is semi-open air. If you are tall enough you can look out to the common patio area and people there could probably see the head and silhouette of the person bathing. Haha. Another thing was that the water pressure in the toilet was very low. The water pressure in the kitchen was much stronger.</div>

<br />
The staff there lit up the charcoal about 6pm. They will only help to light up the charcoal and then we will start the fire ourselves. Along-with the charcoal, they will bring the food as well (if you have placed an order). I ordered for us their BBQ set which includes 2 types of marinated meat, seafood OR tempe/vegetables Western OR local salad Roasted potatoes/pumpkin. You will get meat and seafood or if you are vegetarian you get things like tofu and tempe which can come with Western or local salad and potatoes and pumpkin. If you decided that you would like to add-on a a meal for the the second day of your stay but you didn't made a pre-order in their online reservation, you can still place an order, they will usually have stock but it is safer to pre-order.<br />

We brought our own Citronella candles & mosquito coils. I bought the Citronella candles from British India which was about RM6.50 per candle for the small candle. The staff told us to light up the mosquito repellent from 5pm onwards. We basically lit up the mosquito coil from morning till night. Trust me. you should bring your own mosquito coil, there wasn't any mosquitoes at all within our house.</div>

We felt like the food wasn't enough so we BBQ-ed our mushrooms together with this meal. My favourite dish were the roasted potatoes & pumpkin. The pumpkin was very creamy, boyfie find that it was too creamy but I felt that it was yummeh! The salad was light and refreshing, nicely paired with the chicken kebabs. The fish was really fresh! There wasn't much seasoning for the fish except for the tomatoes stuffed in the fish. Guess that's what the cili padi and black soy sauce was meant to complement. FYI we felt like the table was small to fit all the dishes. On the second night, we took the small table from the swimming pool patio to place our dishes.</div>

It would be good to start dinner at about 6 or 7pm because the house is very dark at night. The area around the house was still dim although we have turned on all the lights in the house. Actually it is a really romantic ambiance. Below are a few pictures to illustrate how the Berembun house looks like at night.</div>

It was a chilly night so even with the fan on low speed was good enough. We didn't get any mosquitoes BUT BUT BUT there was this one insect that was annoying the hell outta me!! It was attracted to the light in our room and it was just buzzing in our room the whole night and it was still there the next morning.</div>

Awakened peacefully by the sounds of water from the frog statue hitting the swimming pool water and the bright sun peering it's way though the holes from the design of our house. We woke up to get ready for breakfast. Breakfast is between 8 - 10am and is being served at the common patio area. I read from other guests' experience that you can request for your breakfast to be delivered to your house as well. Breakfast comes with 1 main meal + 1 plate of fruit + fresh juice & coffee/tea. Breakfast for the first morning was wrap with scramble eggs and vegetables, jack fruit & watermelon juice. The wrap comes with homemade The Dusun sambal which tastes quite unique, a rather different taste compared to the normal sambal. Very spicy too!</div>

The owners have 1 dog and 2 cats, which you will meet the other one later on. It was a very manja cat but it didn't like it when boyfie held it up as such. We were told that they have a Deer Park and if you would like to visit them, you can just call the host and she'll be able to arrange for the visit cause she'll need to unlock the gates for visitors to enter the pen.</div>

Lunch was served between 12.30 - 1pm. Similarly to the BBQ set, they will deliver it to your house. The Minangkabau set comes with rice, vegetable & "ikan masak lemak" directly translated to "fish cooked fat" something like curry but more milky and not spicy. I am generally not much of a fan of ikan masak lemak but yes the fish is fresh and the sauce is not to much milky that it makes you feel like you had a little too much to eat.</div>

Me being a dessert freak, I just had to add on the dessert. It was an interesting combination of Gula Melaka Sago with slices of banana. It is a thick texture, tastes naturally sweet from the Gula Melaka and it tastes as though the banana was briefly cooked together with the Gula Melaka concoction. It does taste really good.</div>

We couldn't wait to try our own marinade. That's the best part ain't it? Preparing, cooking & tasting the fruits of your labour. Since we retreated into the forest, boyfie decided that the theme for the marinade would be Lemongrass. The marinade was prepared at home - blended the Lemongrass & ginger with some water, added soy sauce to taste and some chilli. The wet food were all cleaned and marinated the night before.</div>

Okay, I had the bestest idea to transform the big chair outside on the patio to our dining table and we'll just sit on the floor to eat. How romantic right. Already prepared everything already... But noooo, it had to rain! :( Thankfully, our food were all cooked just in time before the pour. We had to move all our food to the dining table but the wind was too strong and the rain water was splashing in. So we moved our food into our house instead and ended here...<br />

The rain subsided slowly and the weather was even more chilly. After a hearty meal, we clean-ed up and chilled outside for a while and went to bed then after. Oh yes.. We had a "slumber party" with some party crashers on our last night.<br />

We brought it the pillows that were actually placed in the bench outside our house as we didn't wanted it to get wet. So we adjusted them a little for these two darling to cuddle on. Well.. didn't lasted long before they wanted to go out at about 2 in the morning.</div>

I do need to mention that when we had an unexpected visitor that night (othr than the two kitties). There was a bug that somehow landed underneath our pillows. A flying bug. we <strike>kinda </strike> freaked cause we were literally seated next to the pillow when we lifted the pillow and the little creature freaked out too. We had to think fast and devise a plan to get it into the toilet (that was the nearest and fastest only way out that time). That fella was still in the toilet the next morning.. -.-</div>

The night was definitely much cooler than the night before due to the rain. What a wonderful slumber it was. I was looking forward for breakfast because I knew that it was going to be Nasi Lemak!<br />

The Nasi Lemak comes in a traditional basket. It comes with chicken rendang and a plate of pear to wash to finish off the meal. Although it comes in somewhat a serving fit for 2 pax but you can request for a refill or extra.</div>

With some time to kill, we just chilled in our house, I went for a swim (again). They have other activities to offer such as (but not limited to) Jungle Trekking to Waterfall & Bird Watch. Depending on the purpose of your stay. We were looking for a more chilled and laid-back retreat.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Before leaving, remember to pass the payment for the food which you ordered to either the Pak Cik who runs the kitchen or the host who will be in her office near to the kitchen. With a heavy heart, we said our goodbyes to the lovely house and the people there and headed back to the city.</div>

Day 3 in Chiang Mai started off early because we wanted to get to Doi Inthanon in the Chom Thong District of Chiang Mai before the crowd comes in and also so that we can catch the breezy fresh cool air. It was quite a long ride to get up to the mountain, almost 2 hours. We all got some grub before embarking. The breakfast in Thailand is pretty much staple. The usual noodles soup and stir-fry basil rice those sorta thing. Simple but so much of flavour to it.</div>

We all sat in a van to reach the half peak of the mountain and then we were told that we had to get off. You see the line of parked cars behind me? Yeap, that's where all the big cars park because everyone is required to take the "Song Tiao" to get to higher ground!</div>

Along the way to the summit of Doi Inthanon, we dropped by Doi Inthanon National Park to visit The Great Holy Relics Pagoda of Naphamethinidon and Naphaphonphumisiri (two chedis) near the summit of Doi Inthanon. There is an entry fee of 40Baht for adults.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Phra Mahathat Naphamethinidon was built to commemorate the 60th birthday anniversary of His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej on 5 December 1987 and Phra Mahathat Naphaphonphumisiri was constructed to honor Her Majesty Queen Sirikit's 60th birthday anniversary on 12 August 1992. The sun was striking but it was not hot because the air was so cooling and fresh. The view was splendid! I'll let the pictures do most of the talking here.</div>

To get to the chedi, from the gathering point, people will actually need to climb up the stairs to get to the top. Alternatively and luckily, they provided escalators for the ease of some people. If I remember correctly there is also an elevator for the disabled.</div>

The summit is within the forest, visitors will need to walk approximately 50 meters (as the signboard says) to arrive at the summit. It's a lovely stroll along the way to the summit, not too sunny, as there are trees providing sufficient shade.</div>

The path to reach the summit is an easy going walk to get there as the trail is quite flat. Just take note that there are lots of visitors so you will and I pray for you to please, queue up to take pictures. Sometimes people are just ass, the fact that you were there 10 minutes earlier but yet they fail to realize that. *sigh*</div>

Next stop was the Royal Agricultural Station Inthanon. This is where they research and cultivate fruits, flowers and vegetables<span style="color: #545454; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18.2000007629395px;">. </span></span>This is where you can see the some of the most beautiful flowers, vegetables. It is just like a park where you can take a stroll. Below is a picture of map of the area. </div>

In the picture below you can see that it is pretty much similar to Cameron Highlands. And actually you can camp in Doi Inthanon. They have a propoer ground for people to camp there. This camping ground is somewhere across from where we were standing. We didn't went to camp there during that trip but the boyfriend's parents made a second trip with their friends and from their experience, it sounded like fuuuuun! </div>

I took a few photos of the plants and flowers in the Royal Agricultural Station but I am not posting it here because it would take up probably 1/3 of this post. We headed to Wachirathan Waterfall but along the way, there were these stalls by the roadside just like those you see in Cameron Highlands. These stalls sell lots of fresh fruits, dried fruits, vegetables and some food. Their goods were very fresh! Their strawberries were HUGE! Honestly, much better than what you can find in Cameron Highlands.</div>

Okay I just need to show you this food. I am not sure what is it but we believe it is sort of a rice paste? It's a little sourish but the condiment that came with it matched up to it. It's sort of a sticky kind of texture which you dip into the sweet sauce.</div>

Basically it is wrapped in banana leaf and this guy, he bakes in on top of the charcoal grill over low fire. The fire is what soften and makes it sticky. I think he was entertained by my amusement towards the food. I could see his eyes squirmed from smiling. </div>

The humidity was rising by then cause it was around 4pm and we barely ate a concrete meal! Thankfully there is a hut similar to a "gerai" that serves local Thai cuisine. We didn't ordered too much as we were going to have a feast at night!</div>

After filling our tummies, we went closer to the Waterfall to take a closer look. The waterfall was really strong that it kept sprinkling water towards my face. You know that annoying feeling you get when cold sprinkles of water spray towards your body, that was how I felt during that time. Then with the constant gush of wind coming from the rush of the waterfalls, just standing there feels cold. Then yes, it was refreshing.</div>

The atmosphere was very traditional. Loved the concept of dining under the stars sort of thing. It is advisable for you to bring a scarf or a jacket to shield you from the cold. It being winter in Chiang Mai, the weather just got cooler later in the night.<br />

You can take some information sheet from the registration counter. Extracted from the info sheet, below is a brief explanation of khantoke:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
"<i>Khantoke is a pedestral tray used as a small dining table by the Thai speaking people of the sticky-rice culture. There are two types of khantoke: the Yuan khantoke, made of teak wood and predominantly used in Norhern Thailand; and the Lao khantoke, made from bamboo strips and rattan woven together, and used by the people of Nothest Thailand, Laos and Sibsong Panna in South China</i>"</div>

Dinner ended close to 10pm actually. We were so full and kinda tired but decided to take a walk at the night market since it was along the way.</div>

Okay, #truestory, I was very full so to speak till the point that my tummy hurt very very badly. I think because during that point of time, I was eating eat clean alot and my portions were very small. So when in Thailand, it was non-stop chow down. The pain wasn't the "I need to poop" kind of pain nor was is period cramps but I think can challenge. It felt like my diaphragm was stretched so much that something inside tore and an alien is bout to come out. What a way to describe it but... You figure it out yourself... haha. I was in so much pain that walking was such a chore and we were walking through the night market (mind you, the night markets here are like dragon-length) before we decided to call it a night. When we got back in the hotel I just slumped on the bed and got the boyfie to place a warm towel onto my tummy to ease it. From then on.. Note to self, not to overeat.</div>

Dong Dong Dong Chiang! Happy Chinese New Year. It is the season of celebration, with the week before Chinese New Year being Valentine's. I heard from some of my friends that during Valentine's everywhere was packed, even on the road! Thankfully our friend suggested to double date at Kanching Falls. It was something new to us as a couple and we have had the thought of going picnic but it didn't happen thus far until last Saturday.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
We did some research online and found out some negative reviews about the place mostly saying that the place had too many monkeys & was too crowded. Some said that it was dirty. After reading that, we were pretty sceptical about the place but then there were also reviews that if we hiked up to the higher levels, it was cleaner and had lesser people. So it was on!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
We left Petaling Jaya about 7.15am and arrive at Kanching Falls around 8.15am. It takes approximately 30 mins to one hour to arrive at Kanching falls from Petaling Jaya. There is an entry fee. It was RM2 per pax; RM2 per car. I would advice that you park in the middle or away from the forest because when we got back to our car, the monkeys nibbled off the rubber piece that was protecting the car antenna. </div>

At the entrance there is a stall that sells food and also another that sells snacks & picnic stuff alike. There is also a photography area with parrots. The parrots were so beautiful! Of course you will have to pay for taking photos with the parrots.</div>

The first thing you will see after the parrot photo booth area is a wide landscape where kids can run wild and free! It has minimal trees around there so it can be hot. Whether you believe/follow or not, before entering the forest, always make sure that you follow some basic (superstitious) rules. Different people may have different set of rules. Feel free to follow your personal one if you have.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ol>
<li>Ask for permission/say a prayer (in your heart) before you enter.</li>
<li>Don't disturb anything. Avoid tampering with the plants or trees. More importantly, do not take back things from the forest.</li>
<li>If you see, hear or smell something odd or unknown in the forest, just keep quiet and move on. Do not mention or ask anything.</li>
<li>Don't dirty the place which includes peeing in the forest. If you must, it is best to seek for permission first.</li>
<li>Don't joke around or swear.</li>
</ol>

Oh boy, stairs. This was just right after the arc. These were still manageable. It goes all the way to the first level of the waterfall. Actually it only took 5 mins from ground level to the first level and it is nicely paved pathways.</div>

Almost there! You can see a little of the waterfalls. As you can see in the picture above, these concrete huts are located vastly at several locations. These are nice spots for big families as each one has a table and seats. It overlooks the landscape of the waterfall.</div>

The below picture shows level 1 of the waterfall. It is the only level that has a toilet and also a shower area. The water flows down to form a pool for people to swim. Thankfully we were early because there were only a few people during that hour.</div>

Okay, we walked up a little more and came up to this flight of stairs. Yeah.. steep indeed. We guessed that this is the point where people decided to give up and stay at level 1. If you are unfit, it will be tiring and your legs will feel like you just did couple sets of lunges. We climbed and reached to a point that has a stream. There was a long sturdy log which the boys took advantage to take pictures on it.</div>

We walked for abit and then we arrived at this area where it was quiet and the only you could hear was the mild sound of the waterfall. Doesn't the picture below look like a paradise? If there was a flat ground where we could sit, I think that it would be a perfect spot.</div>

After a while, we continued our hike upwards. There are some routes that are slippery and requires a little brain work and footwork to go through the area without hurting yourself. Of course if you had a helping hand(s) it would make it more easier.</div>

Realizing we stopped for quite a while and having stayed at that spot for quite a long time, we were hungry! But we know that should be a nicer spot higher up. so we hiked up until we almost reached the peak. It was a nicely flat spot where we can sit and lay our food out.</div>

Make sure that you bring lots of water to drink too and also prepare some carbs to fuel the body because you need energy to go hike down. By the time we were done, it was close to 11am. We decided to head down because it started to get hot and as we arrived to the lower levels, the crowd started coming in. So ideally, arrive there early for a more peaceful and uninterrupted hike.</div>

I loved my 2015 Valentine's! It was a calming hike throughout. Makes me want to explore more mountains.

We had a local tour guide to bring us around Chiang Mai. First stop was breakfast! In that kind of cold weather, we were all looking forward for breakfast. This breakfast spot was packed in the morning. We had to split to two tables to accommodate us all.<br />

I think their porridge and fish maw soup were one of the hits here as alot of people were ordering the same thing. I had the fish maw soup, and it was so heart-warming. However if you want to sustain the cold, better to have more than just a bowl of soup. Else you'll get hungry probably halfway through the journey.<br />

It's s cold that their pets have their own winter clothing! How adorable! Believe it or not, this cat was actually sleeping. It had it's tail curled up in the middle of the entrance of the house, napping away. Even when we touched it and sneak up right beside it to take a picture, it didn't budge at all.</div>

Turns out Doi Suthep wasn't the highest peak yet. the surrounding felt sort of like Cameron Highlands. There were rows of small shops by the roadside selling food and clothes. Lots of visitors both locals and tourists. Most who were there for prayers and give offerings. You will walk flight of stairs, line up to purchase your ticket. There is a lift to reach the top. Alternatively, you could take a long, long flight of stairs, but we took the lift instead, Hehe.</div>

Abundant food awaited us at the bottom of the hill! Trust me, we never went hungry one single second in Chiang Mai. Generally, most of the stall sells the same food stuff but they don't taste that far off from one another. </div>

After getting some food, we went up high up to visit Bhubing Palace, the Royal Residence. To enter the compound, visitors will need to pay an entrance fee and also required to be in decent attire.<br />

In Bhubing palace, visitors will get a chance to walk through the rose garden. The roses were really beautiful. I'm sure they are handled with delicate care. Accompanied with the cooling weather, it was a lovely stroll while stopping now and then to look at the roses. I took alot of pictures of the roses, but fitting it all here would mean that I will require a post on it's own. Below are a few of my favourite flowers.</div>

It's quite the scenery in the palace. Further down is the water reservoir and then there are a few other royal residences around the area as well. We didn't take the outer walkway, instead we took the inner shorter way.</div>

Since we were in the area, we thought that we should drop by the local tribe village to take a look. It was my favourite part of the Day 2 tour. I loved the hills and the cold air. Makes me feel like if I lived there, I would be running free-spirited up and around the hills. The cold air makes it even better.<br />

There is a sample houses for visitors' to enter and take a look. It is amazing how the government ensure that these local & traditional cultures & lifestyle are preserved as much as possible. I find that by allowing visitors to these villages, it serves as a source of income for the locals as well, which is a smart move by the government.</div>

One of the best dessert you can possible get in Chiang Mai. Coconut Ice Cream! I had mine with bread, or you can opt for non-bread instead. If you are a slow ice cream eater like me, need not be worried because the ice cream didn't melt that fast. Maybe due to the weather and the bread blanketing the ice-cream. So get your ice cream, and enjoy the beautiful landscape.</div>

Before taking off to our next destination, we took a quick bite. Each of us had 1 pork skewer, as it was quite a distance to our next destination. What a glorious taste it was! Glazed and grilled to the right texture. Available widely in Chiang Mai, sweet, flavourful and juicy.</div>

It was lunch time by the time we got to ground level. Our tour guide brought us to try Northern Thai food. Boy was it good. In English the restaurant is called Northern Thai Food (quite a vague name don't you think?) But if you do visit Chiang Mai, get your tour guide/cab to bring you here! You won't regret it!</div>

Similar to Malay mixed rice, they have all these food laid out for you to pick but you can opt for ala carte instead which I recommend because you get to taste the flavours of North Thailand.</div>

No meal is complete without sticky rice in Thailand. I just love their sticky rice. It was really soft and fresh. The sticky rice was different from the one I ate in Sungai Golok. The secret was because they were contained within the little rice basket. A good way to ensure that the sticky rice says soft and doesn't harden is to take out the rice little by little only when you want to eat it.</div>

Khao Soi is basically the Thai version of curry noodles, consisting of egg noodles, coconut milk & curry soup base. Unlike Malaysian curry noodles, its soup wuite close to a broth like texture but it is not very filling as the soup is proportionate to the noodles as if the noodles are just floating on the soup. there is a choice of chicken or pork Khao Soi. I personally preferred the Chicken Khao Soi. The chicken was fall-off the bone tender and immersed with the curry flavour.</div>

The silk moth looks cute doesn't it??!! They breed the silk worms in the factory itself and it is all free for all to view! Amazing right? As you enter, you will find a shelf with baskets of silk moths & silk worms. I find it so magical that they don't fly away from the basket. Must be something that keeps them in the basket.</div>

These ladies are so skilled. Surely and truly they have been doing this for decades or more perhaps. The lady below is weaving the silk to form a piece of fabric. As a matter of fact, there are about 4-6 weaving stations.</div>

After you have finished the tour in the fabric production area, you can proceed to their shop where they sell fabrics in all colours! Lined up in hues according to their colour group. There are also more premium fabrics with an array of designs and colours. </div>

Aside from fabric, they sell items such as apparels (men & women), toys, pencil box, hair scrunchies, key chains just to name a few. They are pretty to look at and to own too. Of course it would be slightly more expensive too. After we had settled what we needed, we decided that we should call it a day and head back to our hotel. </div>

Later at night, we walked around our area, remember that beautiful decor which I took on the first day? They lit up the fairy lights and it was magical! We went into one of the cafes Kantary Cafe (https://www.facebook.com/cafekantary/timeline) to chill. I knew that they wanted to celebrate my birthday. :) Celebrating my birthday overseas *checked!*</div>

I believe the above was hot chocolate. Yums.. Look at the cream oozing from the cup! I loved the french toast though. My first time seeing such an elaborate french toast that comes with ice creat & whipped cream. I find it considerate of them to keep the syrup seperated and on the side so that we can pour our desired quantity over the toast. The toast was light and fluffy, I just couldn't stand the ice cream. Cold weather AND ice cream man... oh yes, and their air con was super cold too.</div>

The cake was mildly moist but the ganache was too overwhelming for my liking. The chocolate ganache was too thick that it became dense. Whereas the texture was close to pasty-like. After a few spoons of the cake, I got sick of it. Couldn't even finished my portion.</div>

Now that dessert was taken care off, we took a night stroll along the roadside, stopped by 7-11 to get some food. to me, 7-11 in Thailand is like the Jaya Grocer of Malaysia. Cause you can get everything there! :O They have interesting items and those which you can't find in Malaysia. But now I noticed that Malaysia is slowly bringing in some of these items from Thailand.</div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Just 2 weeks ago, the boyfie and I met up with our friend - Ivy to collect our invitation cards to her wedding reception. She suggested this bakery cafe in The School at Jaya One called Fuwa Fuwa Bakery Cafe to meet up. The School is a new place, a very hipster hangout spot I feel. When we arrived, we were quite confused as to where Fuwa Fuwa is located as the directory board's information was not complete. For your information, Fuwa Fuwa is located on the 1st floor. As you go up the escalator to the first floor, it's located just behind you.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Somewhat like an L-shape, Fuwa Fuwa's interior design is very open with a modern minimalist touch. Natural light casted through the glass walls brightens up the whole place instantly. A perfect setting for pictures!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">I like how it was spacious enough to allow people to sit wherever they like and still maintain their personal space. they have plug points available too! some are located just below the tables. They have small tables for small group meet ups and bigger tables for bigger groups. The small tables are abit too small if you're meeting up with your friends with laptops and ordering their meals. As there were 3 of us on one table, Ivy had her laptop opened and 2 of us ordered food for ourselves. It ran out of space! So we moved to a long table instead.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Fuwa Fuwa has a variety of buns, bread and pastries and some of their names are pretty interesting. Among the few were <i>Roly Poly Sausage, Captain Floss & Fuwa UFO </i>. There was this one bread which caught my eye the first time I saw it (Love at first sight LOL), I forgotten the name but I do know that it was a pastry topped with onions and cheese, it smelt so good. I didn't try that as I was hungry and I wanted a meal! I would go back again to try their pastries as I am a huge fan of pastries! </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"> They also have a selection of cakes, I am a big dessert kinda girl but I wasn't feeling dessert that day. So I passed on the cakes. I will want to try their <i>Tender Tofu Cheesecake </i>on my next trip to Fuwa Fuwa.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Okay, so being the onion fan that I am, We ordered the Onion Rings. I like how the batter wasn't too thick that it overpowers the onion. Although it wasn't covered in a thick batter, It was fried till crisp. However, I would prefer if their onion slices were thicker. The onion rings are best eaten with their House special Sauce. Their sauce looks like mustard and had a little taste like mustard. I wonder what's the concoction for the sauce.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Boyfriend ordered the Chicken Schnitzel Sandwich. It arrived with lots of leafy on the sides. The crispy chicken slices remained tender and complemented the sauce. I dislike how some F&B outlets over cooks their chicken and it turns out very dry and uncomfortable to the throat. their leafs were fresh too! Boyfriend ordered their latte, but he pointed out that their foam is abit too little for cappuccino and ideally it should be thicker.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">See what I mean about perfect picture setting??! Ahem.. anyway... I ordered the Tropical Chicken Chop. Like the Chicken Schnitzel Sandwich, it came with a side of salad. The chicken was accompanied by tomato sauce. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"> The chicken was lathered in tumeric and grilled till tender. The strongest flavour was the tumeric, but it should contain other spices and/or flavouring. I wished they had more tomato sauce though. The tomato sauce gave it a little Hainanese touch to the dish and of course a dish is not tropical without a pineapple to top it off right? I enjoyed my dish but wished that it was a bigger portion.</span><br />

It is indeed creamy as it states and according to Ivy, it is fresh unlike those that are possibly taken from a mushroom soup can. their garlic bread looks soft, with a crisp toasted surface. Smelled good too. We were informed that their mushroom soup is made from scratch, sounds like my type of mushroom soup!</span><br />

So a few months back, the boyfriend and I decided that we should do something different for outr monthniversary rather than the usual dinner + movie kinda dates. We wanted to go for rock climbing since our uni days as there is a rock climbing wall there but we never did set our mind to do it. So we figured, okay let's (finally) go for rock climbing this time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I remembered that my friend's family owns a Rock Climbing Gym and so we went!</div>

Bolder Ventures is located at USJ 1/2, the area just behind Summit hotel. The direction was really straight forward and easy to find. It is not as big as Camp 5 of course. It is a small rock climbing centre equip with the necessary items for people to climb which was good enough for us. Well the main purpose of us being there is to climb right.</div>

We enjoyed our first climb at Bolder Ventures! I love this place as it is quiet and there's enough of space for us to climb and do stupid stuff. Hehe. I went back again a few weeks ago together with a bunch of my friends (Pictures taken from my friend). Hope that they enjoyed themselves as much as I did. :)</div>

Rewind to 9 months back, I went for a year-end trip to Chiang Mai with the boyfie's family. Chiang Mai's climate during December is winter and they figured that it should be the perfect weather and destination for a holiday. It doesn't but it is the cool season and it can get really cold and chilly especially from evening onwards. so if you're planning on visiting Chiang Mai during this time of the year, it would be wise to bring winter clothings, but don't forget your summer clothes as well, as the temperature during mid-day is quite warm.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Flight to Chiang Mai takes approximately 3 hours 40 minutes from Kuala Lumpur, which is not too bad. </div>

It would be great of you have a companion who speaks Thai or if you do speak Thai, it helps alot. Else you would have a hard time understanding each other. The sun was bright, the air was not cold but it was cooling. I thought it's just like the Highlands, so it's still bearable. After we have passed the customs, we were given local mobile numbers for FREE. Yes you read it right. Free of charge. They have Sim cards for different mobile phones but if they run out of the Sim card for your type of mobile phone then I guess you're just out of luck. All we had to do was head on to 7-Eleven, top up our Sim card and activate it. That's it! How very convenient!</div>

After that, we proceeded to get a cab to our hotel. Instead of the modern cab we decided that we would sit the Songthaew which literally translates to "two rows". It has two benches fixed along either side of the back of the truck with a roof over it. There is a platform attached to the rear of the truck to accommodate standing passengers (max of 2-3) and are usually in red. Below are pictures of how a Songthaew looks like.</div>

Beware when taking transportation in Chiang Mai in general, as they are more likely to hike up the price because they know that you're not local. If I am not mistaken they charge about 20 Baht per person to any destination. Some may charge more but some may be at a reasonable price. You can try to negotiate with them for a lower price, but I believe it would be more effective if it is negotiated in Thai. </div>

Onto the Songthaew we went, and it was really chilly! Because the windows were opened and there are no back doors. It took approximately 20 minutes for us to get to our hotel because there was traffic but it takes about 10 minutes without traffic to get to the hotel. We stay on the busy street of Nimmanhaemin Road. There are cafes aplenty, bars and bistros, food stalls, Spas and also convenient stores. The roads are packed with cars especially during rush hour.</div>

Well if you don't have data, be sure to grab a map! It will be very helpful to get you around in Chiang Mai. We planned to head on to the Anusarn Night Bazaar in Mueang Chiang Mai District<span style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 16.1200008392334px;"> </span></span>but before that, we were deciding where to go by looking at the map and matching it to the street names. We were hungry so we decided to walk around until we came across a decent place to eat. We walked a little, and we found this restaurant in one of the many alleys. We thought okay let's just have something here before we head to town for the night bazaar.</div>

The restaurant is spacious, with an open wall concept. There are plenty of choices on the menu, as for a Thailand noobie like me, I had a hard time deciding what do I want because I have never travelled to Thailand before other than the once in a blue moon visits to Sungai Golok for lunch/dinner.</div>

The first time I tried Kao Klook Gapi was when I visited Sungai Golok. I really loved it! As for this one in Khun Mor, the taste wasn't as aromatic as the one I tried in Sungai Golok. This one felt more modern and the ingredients were pretty simple, plus there were only 8 shrimps *gasp*. But the condiments on the side such as the pork sausages and the crispy pork skin made up for it.</div>

I didn't know how to judge the quality of this at that point as I have never eaten it before. They are hand cut rice or egg noodles, soaked in curry soup base with coconut milk. Yes, it tastes like curry noodles minus the Indian spices. It's also lightly sourish because you are supposed to squeeze lime into this dish.</div>

After our lunch, we headed off to catch a Song Thaew to get to Anusarn Night Market. The night market in Thailand is super big and long. Make sure you wear comfortable walking shoes because there will be alot of walking. There are alot of items to see and of course it was packed with people. There are the usual items sold in a night market i.e. food, clothing, shoes, music, handicrafts, gifts, souvenirs and etc.</div>

Walking for about approximately 2 hours, we were pretty famished. We walked around looking for a place to eat, when we came across this Seafood Restaurant which was really crowded. All tables were occupied and we had a hard time getting the waiters' attention. There are some downside to the service due to the crowd but thank God the food made up for it. While we were waiting for our food to be served we saw some cabaret performers which is located just down the road from the restaurant. You can pay a visit to experience their cabaret performance if you're interested.</div>

Please do order something soupy and spicy to keep yourself warm during the winter. It felt so comfortable! It felt like a bittersweet moment as the soup was filled with flavours of the seafood but with a tang of sourness and warmth coming from the soup and the chilli. It was actually refreshing despite the spiciness. We did order alot of seafood, because the next dish was grilled squid. Simple but full of flavour. The squid was very fresh and grilled to the perfect condition.</div>

The stir friend minced pork is filled with Basil leaves, just look at it!! The minced pork was stir fried with a plate full of basil leaves, onions, chopped chilli and some garlic.

I think that Chinese people do love their O-Jian (Oyster Egg Omelette), or maybe it's just the people I meet. Haha. The sizzling plate of O-Jian was served on a sizzling plate, but not very sizzling. Makes sense? The egg batter was gooey and the plate was full of Oysters, big big, Oysters. The oysters dominated the whole plate with the egg filling up what's left of the little empty spaces in between one Oyster to the other.</div>

This next dish was my dish of the night! The prawn juice seeped into the stringy noodles and had a taste of cooking wine. Tantalizing indeed, I could order one bowl and finish it myself! There are about 4 prawns in this bowl of noodles.<br />
<br />
After a hearty dinner, we walked about in the night market to see if there are anything interesting to <strike>see</strike> eat. Just outside the restaurant was this stall that was selling Rotee. Rotee is basically Roti Canai. Rotee in Thailand has some sweet and savoury filling to it.<br />

I am sorta reminiscing my December last year. Last year, still a fresh graduate, and I was going on a few trips during that time. Just last week, I started my first official full time job if some of you didn't know. So I am still in the transition process of having reality set in right now, but other than that, I have been busy at my work place which is a good thing. :) Putting that aside, as I am thinking about my December last year. I had so many highlights during my trips (yes I know, which I am yet to blog about *guilty*), especially the food *squeals*. One particular food came into my mind and it just lingered there for moment as I tried to remember how it tasted when I first tried it.</div>

We certainly didn't expect this as we (Malaysians & Singaporeans) have never seen nor eaten this before. We certainly wouldn't have have thought of eating this nor would be able to find this place if it weren't for our local Brunei-an friends.</div>

Our Brunei-an friends gave us a little tutorial on "Eating Ambuyat for Dummies" haha... But first, if you don't know what Ambuyat is. Ambuyat is a national dish of Brunei which is obtained from the interior trunk of a sago palm. It has a thick starchy texture with a bland taste, similar to tapioca starch.</div>

Everyone is given their own "chopsticks", well, we call them chopsticks as in our culture, it looks like chopsticks except for the top being connected. One of us called them "trainer" chopsticks as they look like it! This wooden tool is called "Candas", which you use to scoop and the roll the Ambuyat into a ball.</div>

Trainer chopsticks...right... we couldn't event get a decent roll of Ambuyat on our Candas. Some of us resorted to fork and spoon and there was one Candas that broke too (I won't say who :p). Accompanying the Ambuyat are several side dishes. I couldn't remember which set was it we had but it was good! :3</div>

I would just like to highlight the "Cacah" which is the sauce for dipping. It reminded me closely of Kelantan as it tasted like "Budu". Budu is ala belacan basically which is eaten with raw vegetables, fish and chicken. The Cacah had durian in it, which made it really yummy! I would say that just it is an acquired taste and not everyone will like it, but I definitely loved it!</div>

There were other dishes as well, but by the time the Ambuyat arrived, I was more fixated on getting a decent roll of Ambuyat on my Candas than to take pictures of the food. I had several successful attempts I would say!</div>

<b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: x-small;">There should be many places that sells Ambuyat but our friend brought us to Restoran Aminah Arif, so you could give it a try to if you're in Brunei!</span></b></div>

On one of the days in Brunei, our friends brought us to another place to try Ambuyat Goreng for breakfast. OMG, honestly speaking guys, I would've ordered another plate for myself if it weren't for the French toast that I had. It is somewhat similar to Char Kuay Teow but difference is that Ambuyat has a more bouncy texture, somewhat similar to Carrot Cake but chewier, translucent and thicker.</div>

So if you happened to be in Brunei, do ask around for shops that specializes in Ambuyat. During my first trip to Brunei, there weren't much food exploration. So the second trip was more rewarding I would say. :3</div>

I wouldn't have known about the existence of this quaint little cafe in TTDI if it weren't for the write up on The Star newspaper just few days back. What caught my attention was the concoction of having vinegar, garlic AND lychee as the sauce of the of the charcoal noodles. I'm a fan of sourish food and I was sold with the idea of that combination.</div>

As the boyfie and I had no lunch for the next day, we were set on visiting the Little Wonton cafe. The place is really easy to find but Waze directed us to the condo that was opposite the row of shops instead. Their company signboard is quite small and you could miss it if you're not aware. to make things easier, Little Wonton is located above 99 mini mart.</div>

Love these really cute, short chairs. Probably not the most practical but it give some colour to the place. Feels like a classroom table setup. Their menu is straightforward and simple as their unique selling points are the charcoal noodles and guilt free air fried wontons which come in a variety of flavours for customers to choose from.</div>

We made a mistake when we were ordering. We didn't realize that there is a set menu for one charcoal noodles and 6 pieces of wontons for RM13. The waitress asked if we'd like the set menu but Kuok Sing said no because he didn't know that there is such a set and thought that it meant topping up another RM13 set menu on top of our order so he said no, he only wanted ala carte. After we made our order and saw that she only charged for only two bowls of charcoal noodles. Kuok Sing clarified about our order because there was no wontons included. Then only we were told by the server that there is a set menu of such and she said that because we only wanted ala carte When the Kuok Sing asked if we could change our order, she said no because we have already placed our orders and she doesn't have the pass key to access the system. Then only we know that the wontons are the air-fried wontons which we can choose from the menu.</div>

It is our fault that we didn't read the menu carefully before ordering but then, the workers there didn't communicate with us as well. Their service is as though everyone that walks in are regulars and are familiar with their menu. They didn't explained to us that the set menu basically sums up the ala carte orders we made. They didn't seem to have any experience in helping out new customers since she didn't explain to us the set menu before we ordered or when we were ordering. That is one thing that new customers will have to look out for. Confirm your order and reconfirm again.</div>

My noodles came with shredded chicken breast, half of a half boiled egg, lychee and probably a tablespoon of garlic. Personally I loved the concoction of it. It has a sourish tang to it while still carrying the aromatic garlic but it wasn't sourish to the point that you'll feel a sharp sourish stab in your stomach.</div>

The green curry was quite diluted, not the usual thick green curry soup. It wasn't the spicy type either. This had a few fish balls and chicken shreds in it. Their noodles were very yummy to nom! It was cooked just nice. I enjoyed my meal alot!</div>

The mushroom onion wontons tasted like carbonara pasta sauce but with lesser cream sauce. It was okay, really tasted like carbonara and lots of onion in them. We had three each, but after my first bite of my first mushroom onion wonton, I was already quite jelak with it. Not something that I would order again. But I like the skin of the wonton, thin and crispy.</div>

The banana peanut butter wonton tasted like breakfast. Haha.. It tasted like something that I would have with pancakes for breakfast. It had probably a tablespoon of peanut butter and at least a 1.5cm slice of banana stuffed into the wonton. The peanut butter was not oozing but it was the gooey kind and the banana was soft and warm. Imagine all that gooey goodness in your mouth... Yums!</div>

Little Wonton has a very cosy ambience just to hangout and to enjoy the company of your friends. Bring a book, sit there during a weekday afternoon is a great place to just have some "me" time. Just a down side on their servers. Honestly, their noodles portion was really small that we didn't felt full after that. I would've ordered another bowl of noodles if we didn't ordered the wontons. We believe that it was the banana peanut butter wonton that made us full at the end. Food was good and I would go back to try their other wontons and maybe the noodles. I might not change my order because I loved the taste of the noodles at first bite. :D</div>

5th of April 2014, marks another milestone in my life. I attended my diploma graduation when I was in KDU back in 2011. I am now a graduate from Monash University! Make that an alumni now. Haha.. Fun fact, friends of mine commented that I don't seem to age. On the left was me during my graduation in 2011 and the right was me during my 2014 graduation. I may look like I don't age, but I can feel myself ageing, physically and mentally. Photos lie I tell ya!!</div>

I prefer this robe design over the ones I had from KDU. The ones from KDU were massive! It helped having one that is of the smallest size I guess for this graduation. Not that it was any smaller, but it was more comfortable compared to the one from KDU and I felt that it fitted better too.</div>

And I absolutely adore the soft and faded colour of the hood for the School of Arts and Social Sciences! Back then, my sash from my diploma graduation was fuchsia pink. For my Bachelor's Degree, we are identified by the colour from the inside of the sash; facing inwards and from the front as you see outlining the turquoise. My faculty's colour was Old Rose. There's just something about pink and the School of Arts huh. I also learnt that, the sash of Bachelor's Degree graduate are only folded on one side (as you can see below) as the guy explained it in layman terms: "Belum full lagi. Halfway je" (<i>Not a full academician, only halfway there)</i>. </div>

Another thing that made me determined to complete my course was the thought of possibly failing a subject. Failing a subject meant paying almost 5k to retake a subject. So... HELL NO! No way am I gonna retake any papers and to pay that sum for relearning what I have learnt but making sure I pass the second time.</div>

Our little group of three. All those times where we had to burn the midnight oil, studying for exams, squeezing what's left of our brain juice to come out with a decent assignment. Time spent talking and asking nonsensical questions were more productive than those that we asked relating to our assignments and exams. Thank You guys for a great two years! </div>

<span style="color: #990000; font-size: x-small;"><b>Lil graduation bear from the family. Much English from the makers of the toy bear.</b></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Word of advice for graduation:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ol>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #b4a7d6; font-weight: bold;">Get there early! </span>It is optional but for me I prefer to be there early so that I can settle everything from robing to taking graduation pictures to taking pictures with friends and families, skip the long queues, eat something if you have the chance. Because honestly by the time the graduation ceremony is over and you're out from the hall, all you want to do is eat. I was damn hungry halfway through the ceremony. With all the graduands packed in the same area with families and friends, you just want to get out from the robe ASAP.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Bring your own pins for clothes and hair. </span></b>The university does prepare them but since my session was the last one of the day, there were only 3 pins left for the robe.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Wear a formal shirt.</span></b> For my degree (and diploma) we had a button hole on our robe which is meant to be hooked onto one of the buttons on the front of our shirt. If you're particular, wearing a formal top will be much more convenient as I wore a blouse, I had to figure out the best way to pin my robe onto my blouse without looking messy.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Bring two pair of shoes!</span></b> This goes out to all the girls out there. If you're planning on wearing those killer heels (like me *vain*) please bring an extra flats or something that you can wear comfortably while you prance around taking pictures with everyone and then you switch to your heels only when you go on stage.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Carry a practical [hand]bag or none.</span> </b>I know it is your big day and you would like to carry around your make up kit/hair accessories/cameras/phone etc. in case of emergencies and of a probable beauty fix. But being in that robe and carrying a bag is the most uncomfortable thing ever. My bag was the size of a kid's exercise book and it was so annoying that I had to carry it everywhere multi-tasking with ensuring that my robe stays in place. If you can, forgo the bag. Leave it with your family or just carry a phone with you and that's it.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">SMILE and have fun!!</span><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">!</span></b> It's your big day, a day you should be proud of. So take lots of pictures, you only wear the robe probably once in a lifetime.</li>
</ol>

It has come to the end of my Bali post. Last day in Bali, and the night before, we decided to catch the sunrise from Canggu Beach in the morning. Having only 3 hours of sleep, we managed to wake up at dawn to make our way to the beach.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
We were quite silly as we thought that we would be able to catch the sunrise from the beach. We rode around the village to source for the best spot for sunrise but it came to our senses that the sun rises from the other side. So we get the sunset, but not the sunrise. Although not being able to catch the sunrise, it was all okay because the morning air was chilly and fresh... Quite cold actually. Haha. We ended up at Canggu Beach to just walk around as the sky brightens.</div>

After our sunrise mission, we rode back to the villa to continue our sleep. Haha. I would love to stop by a local eatery to pack food for breakfast but it was still early and there weren't any shops that were opened yet. Since it was our last day, we didn't had any extensive plans for the day. The villa provided airport transfer and also a free shuttle service to Seminyak Square. Since we had to check out by 12pm but our flight wasn't until 7pm, we decided to drop by Seminyak Square. It was very convenient for us as they as the villa allowed us to park our luggages in the van while we tour around Seminyak.</div>

There wasn't anything much in Seminyak Square. Most were food and beverage while there was a row of stalls outside which were selling beach wear. We didn't stopped by there to look see because it seemed normal. Plus, we didn't need any more beach wear as we were heading home already. The items might be expensive as it is a tourist spot.</div>

It was a really hot day. We couldn't bear walking the streets of Seminyak for long. After the driver dropped us off at Seminyak Square, we were quick on our foot on deciding our next spot for lunch which we passed by when on the way to Seminyak Square.</div>

I personally loved this tea. Maybe my judgement is biased because I generally love lemongrass and ginger. Now I get the best of both in one drink, I loved it even more! It was refreshing, the ginger taste was apparent but it didn't overpowered the lemongrass. I also liked how they gave us a sugar water on the side for costumers to add into their drink according to their liking.</div>

The pie was nothing to shout about but they were generous with their chicken. The flavours were there and it was baked to perfection. If you are a big eater then forgo this and go with their main dishes. The reason I had a small meal was because it was close to breakfast and I still felt full, and I wanted to save room for dessert! :p</div>

I saw that they had Coconut Macaroon and I wanted to try so I ordered that and a slice of Hummingbird cake. I was confused when my Macaroon arrived because I was expecting a Macaron. You might be confused here but on that day I learnt the difference between Macaroons and Macarons. I have always known that there is two pronunciation to it but I didn't know that they were actually two different things until I went to Google it.</div>

This cake was a disappointment as my fork pierced into the cake, it didn't felt fresh. The cake was firm but it didn't had any softness to it. I particularly didn't fancy the cream as it was too solid and creamy. After lunch, we still had ample of time, so we walked the streets of Seminyak. We didn't walk too far down the road as it was really hot, but There are alot of shops along the way and around the corner.</div>

After a good 4 hours in Seminyak, our driver took us to the airport where we waited for our flight back to Malaysia. All in all it was a great trip with great company! Good food, a very beautiful accommodation worth of the price you pay for. Ooooohh yes! Just remember that you will need to pay Rp. 150,000 for the visa before you depart! As I remember, I didn't had enough of rupiah with me so I had to pay in MYR! Haha. Thank You Bali for the wonderful stay!</div>

<a href="http://chocolatecarousel.blogspot.com/2014/03/bali-30-shopping-in-ubud-relax-in.html" target="_blank">Day 3</a> of Bali was packed and we were pretty tired as we finished up the final drop of our drink for the night. Going into day 4 in Bali, the four of us (Jackie, Ivy, Kuok Sing and I) decided that we should stay in for the day. Since we paid so much for the villa, why not appreciate the beautiful villa right? It was literally an R&R day for us. Plus, we fell sick as well! Haha. We started off the day with our complimentary 30 minute massage from the villa. They sent over 2 masseuses so we waited for our turns when the one before us is done.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The masseuse from the villa is quite experienced, she gave me a foot massage and she told me the points for different parts of the sole of the feet refers to the different parts of the body and she told me that I get headaches/migrain problems, which was true. She was very strong too.</div>

While we stayed back in the villa, Bryan and Myra decided to have an adventure of their own to Kuta. They arranged with the supervisor of the villa for transportation on that day. We on the other hand, had our own form of transportation in mind.</div>

Yeah, we decided, or rather the boys decided to rent bikes for one day. The boys were very excited actually. They were trying to find excuses to ride the bikes around the area. Even to buy cupcakes from Ole Ole Ollie which was just a stone's throw away, they insisted on giving us a ride there. Hahaha. The purpose of getting the bikes was so that we can experience the local village by travelling like one! But, we didn't dare go far as the road leading to the main road was very steep and narrow, plus we didn't know the place well enough to travel further.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The villa has bike rentals but the supervisor was kind enough to advice us to rent a bike from out of the hotel instead as he said that it is cheaper. He even directed us to a bike rental shop just by the roadside, not to far away from our villa. Renting the bike is one thing, then you'll have to purchase petrol separately which is just around the corner as well. After the guys got their toys, we began to venture out to the area around us.</div>

Our first stop was <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Betelnut-Cafe/289844997715255?fref=ts" target="_blank">Betelnut Cafe</a> to grab lunch. Along the long stretch of this road there are a few shops lined quite close to each other, but you certainly will not miss this particular cafe. The I loved the look of the cafe where bythey used dried leaves/hay to create a concept of a shack. There was even an old kayak which they placed on the roof of the first floor as you can see in the picture below. Parking can a bit of a problem as there were alot of customers.</div>

Betelnut Cafe has 2 floors, the ground floor (which is air conditioned) and the first floor which is open air. We opted for the first floor as the ground floor was full and it was quite dark and small inside as well. We had a view of the paddy field and there was wind. Only thing was that it was too bright! The sun was striking on that day, but I would rather the first floor than the ground floor.</div>

This is their portable specials menu board. The owner of the cafe carried the board up to each tables for the customers to explain to them about their special lunch & dinner menu which is not on their fixed menu. He had a smile on his face all the time and was very friendly and patient with us. This is a really cool concept to introducing the specials. Rather than looking at a fixed board for the specials, you have a waiter who brings the specials to you and explains to you on the spot.</div>

The food was quite slow but taste wise it wasn't too bad for the rest, but not for me though. I didn't fancy the food that I ordered. It is actually an Indonesian salad which compromised a mixture of raw and boiled vegetables but something was amiss about it. I didn't know what to ordered so I went with my guts with this as the ingredients "tempeh" and "peanut dressing" attracted me. As I was eating my salad, all I know that there was rocket leaves inside and I just didn't liked it. The peanut sauce was a smooth-mayonnaise texture like, out of the expectation of the satay peanut sauce that I had in mind.</div>

We ordered a whole young coconut for each of a couple to quench our thirst as well. their coconut was the biggest coconut I have ever seen. They are bigger than the ones we have in Malaysia and they taste different too. The coconut water tasted more sourish, it might be a wild coconut of some sort.. I guess? I was wondering if they just cut it down upon order as it wasn't chilled also. </div>

You can forgo my comment on the Raw Gado Gado, as I do recommend you to visit this cafe. We didn't get to try the other items on their menu nor did we try their desserts but I am pretty sure their food is good as it is one of the recommended cafes around the area.<br />

After lunch, we had a vehicle breakdown. Actually Jackie had a vehicle breakdown. XD He couldn't start his bike! Luckily the bike rental shop is around the area so Kuok Sing had to drive back to the store to get backup. The guy arrived at Betelnut Cafe where we were waiting, he diagnosed the problem and decided to exchange with Jackie a new bike.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
As Kuok Sing's bike was running low on petrol (he thought the first fill of petrol could last for a day), we dropped by the "petrol station" for petrol. Being a total jakun here, I was very fascinated by the way they store their petrol and how human-ly manual their petrol refill is. It is not even a petrol station, it was just a little hut that sells some snacks and drinks and it is as though "Yeah, lets do a side business. Let's sell petrol too". XD</div>

We were told by the supervisor of the villa that there is another beach around the area, about 10-15 minutes bike ride from the villa. Upon arrival, there were people who were on standby to collect entrance fee. But we told them that we were not parking as we were only gonna take some pictures. The entrance fee was quite expensive if I remember correctly but just be prepared. The beach was just normal, nothing special actually. There is a temple facing the sea, some shops around the area and babes in bikinis. I personally wouldn't pay for the beach but because it is a tourist spot and a surfing spot, they will have to collect the entrance fee.</div>

As there weren't much to do at the beach, we headed off to venture around the residential area. Along the residential area, there were convenient shops located approximately 500 metres to 1km away from each other and some which were in closer distance within each other. After riding around the area for a while, we decided that there isn't anything much that we can see anymore so we headed back. As we were heading back, we came across this stall that sells Pisang Keju (Banana with Cheese). It looked interesting and also the locals who were buying them makes the stall seems like it was worth the try.</div>

The name sounds fancy right? But it is actually Pisang Goreng (banana fritters) topped with condensed milk, brown sugar and grated cheese. As simple as that combination can be, it tasted good! It was mushy on the inside, but the fried batter was a little bit soften on some parts as the condensed milk melted its way into in. Oh, but it still tasted good. Best consumed immediately while it is still hot. ;)</div>

We totally forgotten about our complimentary afternoon tea, so we only got to try the afternoon tea prepared for us only on this day. It were two kinds of local delicacy which the flower-mooncake look alike tasted like green bean paste while the pate one tasted like fried potato which was tossed in melted sugar and combined together to form the food that you see below. I kinda liked the potato one one but I didn't finished the whole thing as it was too sweet.</div>

Since we had no plans for the rest of the day, Ivy and I made an appointment at Therapy for a manicure session. The boys took us for a ride.. to the SPA. -.- Just because they wanted to use the bikes. Anyway, this day was a Saturday, as we were entering the area to the Spa, this time there were people collecting entrance fees. We told them that they were only dropping us off at the Spa and the boys are coming out immediately, so they let us in. I read from one of the blogs that Echo Beach is quite the happening place on Weekends so I'm guessing that's the reason for the entrance fees.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Their manicure service was quite mediocre. I think Ivy's manicurist was better at it but my manicurist seems quite amateur. I didn't get an even colour on my nails and I asked her to even it out for me after she showed me her work. I would go back for their massage but not for their mani-pedi services. The manicurist taught us a trick to dry the nail polish. She said to place our fingers in a bowl of ice cold water for about 10 minutes. Of course we couldn't last 10 minutes in ice water so we took out our fingers occassionally. Haha.</div>

We took a rather long nap that by the time we woke up it was dinner time. We decided to order delivery from Red Salt instead of going out. We had to wait for 1 1/2 hour for our delivery but it was worth it! Next up on my Bali will be our final day in Bali where we spent most of the time in Seminyak.</div>

<b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: x-small;">Blu and I at the Churpremiere of Rio 2 in 3D!</span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Since the first movie in 2011, I was eagerly waiting for the sequel to be released after watching the trailer. We left off from the first movie with the villains defeated and Blu achieving a milestone by being able to fly at last. Tulio and Linda built and runs a Blu Bird Sanctuary in Rio de Janeiro what we can only assume in the end to see Blu and Jewel to start a life together.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In Rio 2, Blu and Jewel have their own family of three kids - 2 daughters: Bia which seems to be musically inclined and Carla, why of course there has to be the one that is always thirsty for knowledge right? Then there is their only son, Tiago which (stereotypically and expectedly) the mischievous one. If you think that this movie evolves around their kids and probably the plot is about their kids being captured and Blu is on a mission to save them, then you are wrong. The focal point of the plot still remains with Blu.</div>

Tulio and Linda who are in the amazon, reportedly sighted the supposedly extinct Blue Macaws hence, Blu and his family flies to the Amazon partly to help Tulio and Linda find the Blue Macaws as and also because he wants to fulfil Jewel's wishes to meet the rest of their kind. Being a bird isn't exactly Blu's first nature, so it really is a jungle out there for Blu. As they meet with a flock their kind, Blu has problem trying to fit in and along the journey he has to face his not-so-approving-of-him father-in-law, a charming Roberto and a vengeful Nigel.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Rio 2 has a much more serious plot as compared to Rio, the dialogue in the movie and the feelings that Blu has to go through has a mild sombre portrayal to it. The plot for Rio and Rio 2 is almost the same, as it is about belonging, acceptance and courage. The main plot is Blu and how his family learning to settle in with their new family and the sub-plot is about Tulio and Linda trying to put a stop to illegal loggers in the Amazon. In the end, Blu comes to good terms with the Blue Macaw family and they are the ones who stop the illegal loggers before they bring down the forest.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The plot is more serious and less of humour (not to say that there weren't any at all). The plot is quite bland but going into the first half an hour of the movie, it is clearly an old fashioned family film. The life-of-the-party Nico and Pedro plays a fairly minor role in the movie. I feel that their role in the movie was "for sake" purposes. The plot would've work just fine even without them. They go on screen on and off but I find that their roles in the first movie was way way better. If you were a fan of Luiz the drooling bulldog, you would be disappointed as he only appears at the beginning and at the end of the movie.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The music arrangement was quite a disappointment for me. I expected better but I think my expectations were too high. I still like the idea of mixing Brazilian music with modern music genres such as pop and R&B but I find that the music in Rio 2 is not as danceable as the first movie. In the first movie, it made me feel like moving when I first heard the songs, but the second one was just "okay". I really liked the dark-humour of Nigel the Cockatoo in this sequel, he had quite a number of dramatic scenes and singing, very enjoyable, funny but fantastically villainy at the same time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The villains in the films were the same as the first in terms of one group of humans and the other are animals. The human villains, lack character and development. There were not much details about them except that the boss who runs the illegal logging wants Tulio and Linda to be out from sight. The human villains were quite pathetic so to say. Nigel the Cockatoo was an even better villain! This time, he even has sidekicks, and one which develops into a really one-sided unconventional relationship (it was funny but I am still a bit weird-out by it. Haha.). </div>

The cinematography however, was amazing as usual. I loved how they had a lot of wide angle landscape shots. The colours were vibrant and the Amazon was beautifully shot and illustrated in animation. It is so surreal but it made me feel like I wouldn't mind living there! I watched Rio 2 in 3D, but my advice to you is don't waste your money watching it in 3D. As amazing as the cinematography is, there weren't much of any 3D elements. I would have preferred watching it in just 2D.</div>

If you're a fan of Rio and of animations, the answer is yes, do watch it in the cinemas. The cinematography is wasted if you're watching in on a tv/desktop, but skip the 3D. I believe kids would enjoy this movie. The younger kids might not fully understand the real meaning behind the story but I can mentally hearing kids going "waaaaaaaaaahhhhh..." at the sight of the beautiful sceneries that Rio 2 has to offer. This movie entertains but at the same time presents valuable lessons about family, home, the self and protecting the ones you love and others.</div>

So after a brief night in Kuta (<span id="goog_1149133111"></span><span id="goog_1149133112"></span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/"></a><a href="http://chocolatecarousel.blogspot.com/2014/01/bali-indonesia-10-our-1-night-stay-in.html" target="_blank">Bali 1.0: Our first night spent in Kuta, Bali</a>), second day of Bali (<a href="http://chocolatecarousel.blogspot.com/2014/01/bali-indonesia-20-cuddle-in-comfort.html" target="_blank">Bali, Indonesia 2.0: Cuddle in the comfort that is, Villa Sandhya</a>) was all about exploring the villa, and the area around the villa. On the third day in Bali, we had everything planned out to fill the day. But of course before one kick-starts the day, one must have breakfast!</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We didn't know that we were supposed to inform the staff about the time which we would like to have breakfast as we thought it will already be prepared and we can have our breakfast any time we wish upon waking up as according to our convenience. So we followed the hotel rule-of-thumb of buffet breakfast timing, 7-10am.</div>

The butler will prepare fresh watermelon juice straight from the blender. We also had milk and coffee. Everything is bought and prepared by our butler. Only when you are ready to have breakfast, the butler will bring out the fruits and milk from the refrigerator, blend the juice, toast the bread and heat up the necessary food items, else it wouldn't be fresh.</div>

After our breakfast, we went to get ready for our half day tour in Ubud which is part of the package. Seeing that it was almost brunch time by the time we arrive in Ubud, we decided to stop at Naughty Nuri's Warung along the way for lunch. When I was googling on famous eateries in Bali, this came out as one of the must visit eateries which is known for their pork ribs.</div>

It is not hard to miss the Naughty Nuri's Warung signboard. It is even harder not to miss the grill that they have outside of their restaurant! The shop looks as though it has been there for many years now and they have other (newer) branches in other areas of Bali. <span style="text-align: center;">Looking at the ribs that were grilling as we entered the restaurant, we definitely made the right choice for lunch alright!</span></div>

It didn't took long for our food to arrive, even if we had to waited for hours I would wait! The ribs was just magnifique! On Kuok Sing and my side, we decided to order less heavier dishes as I still felt full from breakfast. Thinking that the ribs would be big as well, so we decided on smaller portions of food. </div>

The food generally was good. I liked the clear soup as it wasn't too heavy on the MSG but rather quite peppery, plus there were lots of vegetables in it. The pork skewers were yummy too! its rather dry as the only sauce that we had was from the black sweet sauce that was drizzled onto the pork skewers. Luckily the soup helped to moisten the rice a little. the best part of course was the pork ribs!!! Surprisingly, for a whole rack of ribs, it wasn't as huge as expected but it was literally glistening!! Well marinated, the meat firm but still tender enough to cut and bite. Kuok Sing and I were thinking that we should've ordered one each! :p</div>

We headed to to our 2nd destination which was Ubud Market. Ubud market is like a flea market which sells if not same but similar items between a few shops - clothes, idols, accessories, shoes and etcetera. Because it is a popular tourist spot, the prices are much more expensive I would assume so.</div>

It is okay to haggle in Ubud market, as a matter of fact, I believe that the locals are used to tourists haggling for their items. However, do keep in mind that you want to buy the item before you start haggling for the item. I noticed that when you start haggling and if you decide to walk away if you are not happy with their final price, they insist that you give them your price and they are open to further negotiation. We also had a chance to try the Kopi Luwak in Ubud Market. It tasted much more earthy than the normal roasted coffee. It actually tasted like real coffee. We didn't go to the actual Kopi Luwak farm so the idea of drinking coffee bean Civet faeces isn't that bad as we didn't see the whole "in-the-making" process of Kopi Luwak.</div>

We ordered to take away, so that we can have it as our late lunch in the villa. We took 3 packs of the meat and pork skin which one pack we gave to the driver for his help on driving us around Ubud and bringing us to the places that we wanted to go. It was a very hot and humid day and with the walking in the sun and among the crowd, we dived into our pool villa after the whole trip for a refreshing swim before our next appointment - our massage and Myra's mani and pedicure session.</div>

Ibu Oka's Babi Guling meat was soft and tender and finely sliced while the skin was crispy. Their green chilli was delicious! Even after the meat and skin were finished I could just eat the green chilli as it is. Their liquid sauce looked and felt oily but I think it is meant to be like that, not much taste from the liquid sauce though. </div>

We loved this dish as well but my sister told me that when she was at Bali, she tasted a better version of the Babi Guling which she and her friend stumbled upon by the roadside. If you know any of such restaurant, do let me know then maybe I could visit it it the future one day! :)</div>

Next destination as mentioned was Therapy, the SPA parlour. Since it was just walking distance from our villa, all of us decided to take a walk there and then from there, we walked to Echo Beach for dinner.</div>

We were greeted by their friendly staffs who brought us drinks and cold towels to freshen up. While we fill in the registration forms and customer details, they provided us their in house slippers as they kept our slippers away. After we are done with the forms, we were introduced to our masseuse and escorted to our rooms.</div>

The overall SPA experience there was quite simple. I would say that they lack some strength as while they were massaging me, I could hear the joints of my masseuse cracking at the same time. Haha. The room was quite warm as well. They still lack in experience in my opinion (judging based on their interaction with their customers, and their familiarity with points on the body, in terms of whether a spot needs extra caution/attention) and there is still room for improvement. Don't expect a 5 star massage parlour but it was okay. The price range for their services is between Rp. 50, 000 - Rp. 450, 000.</div>

I wanted a spot just by the edge again, but there were no seats available so we sat in the middle. But none to shabby, we still got a great view of the sea. Echo Beach at night serves BBQ seafood! They have an array of seafood to choose from their "Seafood Bar" as I like to call it. Their seafood was very fresh! They also have a free-flow appetizer area for Echo Beach customers. Eating that was also good enough actually. Lots of carbs and other greens together with sauces which you can eat with your BBQ items.</div>

They serve alcohol as well but they also have a wide variety of other drinks. If you're a fan of avocado, try, try, try their avocado juice!! The avocado juice was thick (like a smoothie, but not icy), not too sweet and the avocado taste was very strong. However, the avocado juice would be best enjoyed as a drink on itself and/or paired with a light meal. Else, you will end up stuffed.</div>

The setting in Echo Beach is quite romantic at night, but the dinner table was too dark as we couldn't see what were on our plates. The wind wasn't as strong as when it was during the day. The weather was just nice for an outdoor dinner.</div>

We headed back to the villa for more food! Remember the Bakso that we bought earlier from the cart? And also we stopped buy to buy Bebek Guling which was nearby our villa around the same area as Echo Beach. It is located behind the shops, very secluded and quiet. there weren't any people at all at the shop and the restaurant was by the cliff. We told the waiter that we wanted only 1 quarter of a duck. She seemed unsure and then kept asking us if we are sure and insisted that we take at least half a duck but we said no because we were still full from the food from the day and of dinner. Even the chef was confused at our order but after (literally) illustrating which part of the duck we wanted, the waiter understood and went with our order.</div>

The quarter piece of a duck in the picture above may look big but well pictures can be deceiving. It was really really puny. It was around the size of my fist but flatter. no wonder she kept insisting us to take more. Well, we just wanted to try it but we were disappointed with the meal. Nothing special so to speak, just tasted like ayam penyet but ayam penyet tastes way better.</div>

The Bakso noodles expanded after being left in its plastic for 1-2 hours. I kinda like the taste of the Bakso. It was a clear soup but has a distinctive taste of its own. Kuok Sing and I had the chicken Bakso. The meatballs were the mushy kind! Nothing that tasted weird but I found it quite amusing. Haha.. If possible, my advice would be to consume it immediately after purchase when it is still hot. As the noodles will become too soft after being left for a few hours.</div>

After arriving and staying 1 night in Kuta (<a href="http://chocolatecarousel.blogspot.com/2014/01/bali-indonesia-10-our-1-night-stay-in.html" target="_blank">Bali 1.0: Our first night spent in Kuta, Bali</a>), the driver from <a href="http://vhmgroup.com.au/" target="_blank">Villa Sandhya </a>picked us from the hotel that we were staying in. The drive was about 45 minutes to 1 hour ride from Kuta to Canggu, a residential area off town. During the drive to our villa in Canggu, despite the humid and hot weather and the "fast and furious" cars and motorbikes outside of our van (you'd probably have to be as daring as the locals to drive in Bali), the van was comfortable throughout the close to 1 hour car ride.</div>

Canggu is a very quiet and tranquil place as it is away from the town area. The roads leading up to our villa were surrounded by paddy fields and houses owned by the locals. There are also a number of villas located in the area. The roads can get bumpy and tight as some of them are only a single-lane road. The vehicles including our van weren't exactly going slow. My heart skipped a beat and we were exchanging glances when we met with another van as we were going up a slope on the single-lane road. Overall the ride was splendid as we got a chance to sight-see.</div>

Upon arrival at the villa, we were greeted immediately by the supervisor of the villa - Mr Edi and we were brought to our 3 bedroom villa. There are a total of 3 villas just connected side-by-side and a small management office where you can find the hotel supervisor. Ivy found this deal on Groupon, it was a really good deal and we decided "Let's go for it!". We bought the 4D3N package which includes daily continental breakfast, daily afternoon tea, free Wi-Fi, half day tour of Ubud, return airport transfer, free shuttle service to Seminyak Square and Canggu Plaza, and 30 minutes massage.</div>

The pool was very clean, not even a sight of leaf was in it. We think that the pool might be a self-cleaning pool as occasionally we would hear sounds coming from the pool area. Even though we stayed there for 4 days, the pool still looked clean at the end of our trip.</div>

Mr Edi, the supervisor, provided us with 1 mobile phone which contains his number in it. The concept of this villa is that, everything you need: food (you can opt for a private chef), massage and or pedi/manicure (who will be sent to your villa), transportation (for tours, bike rentals etc.), outdoor activities/entertainment (white water rafting, entertainment spots etc.), it is all just one call away. They have their own Villa Sandhya book which contains all the information and services provided by the villa. It is as though everything is provided at your convenience so that you do not need to leave the villa at all. </div>

Behind the kitchen is an open-air shower and toilet (behind the shower). If you're and exhibitionist, why not? haha. We used the shower to rinse our body before we entered the pool. The walls are quite high and there wasn't any other building directly beside us, so you can still do your business there if you're up for it.</div>

Although the downstairs bedroom seems to be more spacious that the other two but all three are of 150sqm. The interior of the 3 bedrooms are more or less the same, very simple with minimal designs. Only difference is that the master bedroom has their own bathroom with a bigger bathtub and two sofas.</div>

After our tour around the villa, we decided to walk out to get some grub. Echo Beach is just 3-5 minutes walk from our villa. There are a few restaurants around that area but the place is more lively at night. It was very windy! We got a place just beside the edge of the wall by the sea. We decided on Sate Bali Restaurant as we wanted to have authentic Balinese food.</div>

After getting a seat, the waiter attended to us to pass us the menu. The preparation of the food took quite awhile so in the meantime, we took the opportunity to take some pictures. Only thing that I didn't like about that area was the pesky flies! It was so big and it kept circling around our table.</div>

As we sat there, we could hear the waves crashing and the wind blowing strongly Echo Beach is one of the popular surfing spots around the area. Seen around the beach area are surfers mostly Ang-Mohs. There are alot of Ang-Mohs who travel around on their scooter and bikes. They must be regulars as they seem to know their way around the area and some even came with their own surf boards.</div>

We waited for about 20-30 minutes for the food to arrive. The presentation of the food was good and the plate was very big and heavy. I had the Nasi Campur which surprisingly, wasn't that spicy as the Balinese food that I had in Malaysia. Everything on my plate was very appetizing, especially the pork which was soft and juicy.</div>

After fulfilling the wishes of our grumbling tummy, we took a stroll back to our villa to look at some of the shops around the area. There is a junction which leads to a Pura (temple) and also to some eateries, a spa, apparel shops and a surf school. We skipped Edelweis Spa and opted for Therapy (which is much closer to our villa than Edelweis Spa) because Therapy looked more appealing to us. Their staff came out to greet us when she saw us lingering outside looking at their spa services. She passed us their booklet which states their services and pricing, so we could decide later on our own what therapy we would like to go for.</div>

As we were walking out from our villa to Echo Beach, a cafe is located just along the way, approximately 30 seconds walk. We wanted our desserts of course! So on the way back from Echo Beach, we dropped by the cafe called <a href="http://oleoleollie.com/" target="_blank">Ole Ole Ollie</a> .</div>

I ordered a Vanilla Raspberry cupcake and Spicy Ginger Milk. The cupcake was okay in my opinion. I've tasted better ones that suit my liking. I didn't like the (whipped) cream as it was too much. The Spicy Ginger Milk was, yes, spicy. An interesting taste, you can't taste the much of the ginger at all. I like how the drink came in quaint bottle which fits the whole theme of the cafe's layout.</div>

I had a taste of their pancakes. The raspberry jam was fresh. It had a strong flavour of raspberry. the pancakes were fluffy and it is interesting that it is a chocolate pancake but it didn't taste of sweet chocolate, just a light hint of cocoa. KS had his pancakes with chocolate ice-cream.</div>

Their ice cream was different as it wasn't the solid ice cream type. The ice cream had an interesting texture as if they mix it with a type of cream or milk. It's like ice cream-smoothie. The ice cream spoon instead of the metal/plastic type, they gave him a biscuit spoon!</div>

After a good swim, we went to rest and wash up to head out for dinner. We decided on having our dinner at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/RedSalt-Bali/167152436699153" target="_blank">RedSalt</a>. The sign from where we saw says that it was only 300m away. So we thought, alright, why not. Since the other restaurants are further away and along the road there were none to minimal street lights.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So we were walking for a good 3 minutes down the rocky pathway to RedSalt. We didn't see any restaurants, only some houses and what seems to be like a resort. Mind you, it was pitch black. there weren't any street lights AT ALL. There were a few motorcyclist that passed us and we asked one of them for directions. He pointed us to the direction of RedSalt and recommended their burgers. The motorcyclist said that RedSalt is "just down the road" "walk straight and you will see a lighted building". Yeah it was just down the road... down the hilly...dark... road. Luckily we brought our mobile phones and used them as torch lights.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So after approximately 20-minutes walk, we've arrived! We were hungry, happy and relieved!</div>

The restaurant was very quiet, there was only one couple present in the restaurant and the rest is pretty much empty. The restaurant is on elevated ground and is located beside a paddy field and just below, it looks like accommodation which is also part of the RedSalt.</div>

Food at RedSalt was good and their portions are big. The waitress was very talkative as well. Haha. After dinner, there is the walk-of-darkness back to the villa. Haha. <span style="text-align: justify;">The walk was quite creepy as we were already covered in darkness, along the roadside were paddy fields, some bushes, a lake/rive... maybe? I don't know man, it was dark. Then the silence of the night was accompanied by the orchestra of nature's night creatures. It was creepy but somehow I liked it because I felt a sense of peacefulness as we were walking. Even better yet, there was a cooling breeze.</span></div>

On the 4th December 2013, Kuok Sing (KS) and I travelled to Bali with 2 other couples. This trip initially came up because Jackie wanted to get away from work and just spend some time to relax with his close friends in another country. We thought it would be a great idea since Jackie comes back once in a blue moon and it would be a great getaway for us to just chill, relax and spend some time with each other. Hotels weren't cheap especially in well-known and tourists spots. What more it being overseas! Ivy came across an offer for a villa via Groupon and we thought it was very worth it, so we bought it the next day. However, due to some of us who were working, we couldn't leave earlier so we left the afternoon before the confirmed dates of the villa and arrived at night. It was a 3 hour flight to Bali from LCCT.<br />

We arrived pretty early at the airport (around 1pm) to check in our luggage. Since we had time to spare, we decided to just head into the departure hall and just wait there. Since we wanted to get some alcohol from the duty free shop as well. Even after taking a stroll in the duty free shop, we still had time! And since, all are quite big eaters, they couldn't wait for their in-flight meals. So we had some "appetizer" first before boarding the plane. The food at this shop just beside the T13-14 gates is not bad actually! And being located in an airport, for the price you pay for what you get, it is considered good. Not too long later, it was boarding time!</div>

Since we were to arrive at night, we decided to stay in a budget hotel just for the night. Luckily, I managed to get a good deal from Agoda. It costed around RM65 per pax for two rooms + two extra mattresses which came with breakfast. The location of the hotel was very strategic! It being 3 minute drive from the airport, a quiet surrounding, and it being surrounded by convenient stores and food outlets.<br />

So upon the confirmation of the hotel booking, I also requested for airport transfer. However, because this is a "special request" so it is "subject to availability". I was already expecting the worse, but looking a the location of our hotel to the airport, it is very near (approximately 10-15 minutes walk). So I thought should there be no pick-up, we could just walk there. Well true enough, there was no pick-up by the hotel. :( Since some of us had a bigger luggage, we decided taking a cab would be a better choice.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Upon arriving the hotel, I think some or all of us were <strike>quite</strike> very sceptical about the hotel. The lobby of the hotel was practically only in one building and in a tight and small space where even when two of us stood inside, at the front desk, it felt crowded already. We thought that the hotel was really all that it is right there. But after we got our keys, the bell-boy took our luggage and escorted us to the back part of the hotel, which revealed to be like a resort actually. Don't expect a 4-5 star resort, but it was clean, comfortable beds, well-kept and decent despite reviews that the hotel rooms were dirty and that the floors were sticky.</div>

The receptionist at the hotel asked if we saw the taxi that was arranged for us but we told him no one was there to pick us up. Even he himself looked confused. Haha. Despite that, the staffs at the hotel were friendly. They were kind enough to arrange our rooms next to each other and had already prepared the mattresses that was requested.</div>

After we checked in and settled down, we were famished! We headed out on foot to look for some good Indonesian food. The place that we wanted to go was <i>Kunyit Bali Restaurant</i> on Jalan Kartika Plaza. Sadly it got closed down in October 2013. Too bad for us because I read the reviews that the food there serves really good authentic Balinese food. We didn't know at that time that the place was closed down, so after walking for about 20 minutes along Jalan Kartika Plaza and not being able to find <i>Kunyit Bali</i>, we decided to back track and along the way just drop by any of the eateries. We decided to have our dinner at a roadside eatery - <i>Surya Jaya</i>, something like economical rice stalls you see in Malaysia.</div>

Knowing that whatever that we had wasn't enough, we came across this roadside stall which sells Martabak and Terang Bulan. Martabak is like Murtabak but they do it a lil' bit different in Indonesia. Whereas Terang Bulan is Apam Balik ("Turnover Pancake" which is basically closed pancake with filling). It smelt really fragrant and as you are approaching the stall, you could already smell it! We decided that each couple should order 1 martabak and 1 Terang Bulan of their own.</div>

Look at the "swimming" Martabak. Again, a slight difference from the ones in Malaysia, this is bathed in oil, deep fried till the skin is crispy. The meat was juicy and flavourful enough that you'd just forget about the amount of oil that it was "swimming" in.</div>

The next day at the same hotel, we woke up about 9am to have our breakfast. Breakfast was quite miserable actually. What you see on this plate, that was it. But the taste wise, not too shabby. That round potato thingy in the middle there was nice and I kinda like the noodles although it was dry and there wasn't any sauces.</div>

Our check out time was at 1pm. We spent rest of the time there packing and chillin' in our room. After we were done packing, we headed out to the supermarket just outside our hotel to grab some food for our 1 hour car-ride to our villa. There are actually food stalls just outside our hotels as well and a very big supermarket. The supermarket has all the basic necessities that you need and also food, even fruits!</div>

<i><b>My tips for you based on my 1 night stay in Kuta:</b></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>Jalan Kartika Plaza is like the Bukit Bintang of Malaysia. A few luxury hotels, Western food outlets, bars & bistros (some with live band) available. There is also a shopping mall on the same road.</li>
<li>Wear sensible shoes if you're walking. Roads and pathways are quite uneven and there are puddles.</li>
<li>You can ignore the cabs that will be honking at you as they drive pass you. It is to get your attention, for if you need a cab.</li>
<li>If you get lost, you can ask the guards that are standing outside of a hotel or restaurant's pathway or even the locals. They speak simple English.</li>
<li>Try something new! Go for local food better yet, roadside food, to get a taste of the local delicacy.</li>
<li>It is dark at night and there are not many street lamps. There are locals who will hangout/chill by the roadside on their bikes, on the pavements etc. They do stare/look at you but I don't think they'll do you any harm. However, if you're worried, go out with a partner or in a group.</li>
<li>Do not drink from the pipe water! Buy yourself bottles of drinking water form the nearby convenient store. Don't worry if you missed one along the way as they have a lot of convenient stores just couple of blocks away.</li>
<li>Keep yourself hydrated from the start of your trip not when you think you're about to fall sick! With all the food that you are going to be enjoying, plus with the humid weather, you will need sufficient water in your body too. We didn't drank enough of water, in the end 4 of us fell sick. Haha.</li>
</ul>

Hold up on that goodbye for 2013! Or any goodbyes to the months and/or years to pass. Those goodbyes that you are saying to, are what makes you a better person or worse instead, well you be the judge. Instead of saying goodbye, look back and pick up on those events, good or bad, reflect on it, celebrate for it happens for a reason and it may just be the catalyst that moulded you into who you are today!</div>

Here are some of my memorable moments in 2013!<br />

I learnt and improved alot from where I was the year before I joined MDFC. I joined MDFC during my second semester upon entering Monash and I was quite reluctant. I then joined the Spartan (performers group) later in December 2012. I am glad that I decided to join the Spartan group because that was where I started to learn more techniques and different styles of dances. Not to mention the corners, stretching and liftings which I was new to back then. Boy was it a challenge! (And it still is too from time to time). Oour dance teacher, Ms Sharon, is tough on us at times but she does it so we can improve and I thank her for her time and patience to deal with all of us.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I have been wanting to loose weight since...forever. I have always carried that extra pound since younger days. You know how Chinese boys can be so mean that they call you fat and all. It really does put me off my game at times. I lost some weight as puberty came along but I gained some of them as I grew older. I have been whining and making myself feel bad about it but I've never done anything about it back then. I danced back in KDU, yes, but still I was not in a good shape. I looked like a meatball with extra stuffing!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Early 2013, after I joined Spartan, our teacher told me to lose weight in preparation for the concert! I started on an eat clean diet together a workout plan and I did it! By May, I was slightly toner just in time for the concert. I didn't stop there though. I continued my eat clean diet and workout plan until September which my body became toner. I let loose on my workout since September due to assignments and exams but remained eating clean as much as I can. During that period of time, I lost all my muscles! T.T As a result, I shrunk and I look skinny but flabby now.</div>

Together with my weight lost, I learnt to cook better and healthier. I get a great sense of achievement especially when I learn to make something out of scratch rather than buying it off the shelf in the grocer. *gold star* I like the new lifestyle right now. It makes my body feel different in a good way. Again, all of these I will be sharing in a separate post of its own. :)<br />
<br />
I am currently in that size you see in the Bali picture. I was initially quite upset about myself that I lost my muscles and went on an eating spree during exams and during the holiday period. But I don't feel bad about it anymore because it is normal that you will fall back at a certain point of time in life. Don't stop, just start fresh with a goal, set in your mind. I just went grocery shopping for my eat clean diet again and am pumped to start my new workout plan! When you have the right mindset, the willpower, the motivation all come together with it. :)</div>

<b><i><span style="color: blue;">3. No matter how much you want it, but you can't have it, you will have to let it go</span></i></b><br />
I had a pet cat for less than a month back in May. I took the cat, Amelia, in because her owner had to fly back to the US but there wasn't anyone who would take in the cat. So I decided, why not?<br />

I took the cat home even got all the necessities for a cat on the day itself. I was hoping that my mom would be okay with it but my hopes got crushed when she disliked the cat. Not that she hates them but she just prefer dogs over cats and she just doesn't want any animals in the house. Afraid of too much hassle. She told me to give it away! :( As much as I didn't want to, I had to. Amelia was the sweetest cat, gentle, lady-like and very manja. Although she can be quite fierce when she wants to. all those reasons which was why it made giving her up even harder.</div>

We gave her to one of my mom's friend who loves cats and he himself rears cats. I do believe that Amelia is in good hands and in great care of a loving family. My mom told me seems that Amelia is living the life. Good food, good companions. Amelia is still fierce though as she hissed at the other cat in the home and they're scared of her. Haha. Sometimes, things just don't go your way in life, there will always be circumstances that will prevent you from getting what you want. It is at times best to let go if you have tried your best to preserve it. Who knows, it may be for the better?</div>

It took us 1 year to planned this whole thing and it wasn't easy because Jackie was based in Australia and his girlfriend, Ivy is in Malaysia. With his tight schedule, it was hard for him to arrange a time to come back to Malaysia to do the video shoot. Even with him back, he had to lie to Ivy to make sure that she doesn't find out that he actually went for the video shoot in a friend's place. Haha!</div>

We've been through cuckoo lecturers, <strike>un</strike>-intended puns, assignment and exam stress together-gether. Oh the times we had break-downs, okay...um.. maybe that's just me. Haha. The time spent with these two are priceless. The past years have been great and to be able to end my tertiary education with you two was the cherry on top of the ice cream!<!--3--><!--3--><!--3--></div>

I just came back from my Bali trip two days ago and boy was it a feast-ful trip! Sadly I got sick halfway through the trip and came home with two friends - flu and cough. After all that food I just needed some cleaner food. I think all the clean eating and meal prep has conditioned my body and mind to opt for cleaner and healthier options. Even in Bali, one of my friend said, I didn't even cheat much! I am still eating healthy. Haha... (Good) Habits die hard!</div>

Well that was for lunch, dinner I had made some vege soup with chicken breasts. I was itching to make something at night since mommy brought back 3 boxes of the baking utensils from Port Dickson! I decided to bake something to do with green tea seeing that I just bought green tea powder and I wanted to om-nom something green tea. So for all you green tea lovers, if you wish to make your own green tea cake, this is a very simple and fast recipe. Worry not for the recipe was tweaked to suit a less sinful version.</div>

Baking in the oven earlier were Green Tea Chocolate Cakes. This recipe is really simple and straightforward which was why I decided to bake it at night, after dinner at about 8:30pm and had a one piece for myself! Who doesn't love fresh oven baked cakes?</div>

Like my love for Cinnamon Rolls, I love all things Green Tea too. Green tea has its benefits, many I would say but I will save the educational health benefits for Google and reliable sources for you to find out yourself. I noticed that there are alot of recipes that incorporates green tea with red bean. This mixture is like peanut butter and jelly, you cannot go wrong with it. Plus it is generally the standard mix in food and beverage outlets as well. I am not a fan of red beans so I discarded the idea of including red beans into my recipe entirely and opt for cocoa powder instead.</div>

The cakes came out soft but lacked the green tea and chocolate-y taste. It does have a light scent of it but taste wise it needed more. I was contemplating whether to add in an extra tablespoon for the green tea and cocoa powder respectively when I was making the respective mixture but I thought it was sufficient. Should have doubled the amount for the the powder! If you dislike the idea of chocolate with your green tea cake, you can just skip the dividing batter part and mix in the green tea together with the flour mixture. On the other hand, if you love chocolate, you can try adding melted chocolate into your chocolate batter for the extra chocolate-y goodness.</div>

I took one cake and split it open. I noticed that the insides were quite moist as well. The cake texture turned out soft and light, with very lightly crisps sides and moist insides. It wasn't oily nor was the mixture too heavy on the butter-ish texture because of the coconut oil which I noticed as with the <a href="http://chocolatecarousel.blogspot.com/2013/11/curing-cinnamon-roll-crave.html" target="_blank">cinnamon rolls</a>. All I can say is that I am starting to love using coconut oil in my baking! </div>

I om-nom it with warm milk, perfect for after a cool rainy day to end my night. I spread some butter on to the cake and it tasted good. Might just try it with jam later (it's 1:20am now)! :D doubt that these will last till tomorrow. Haha...</div>

This is an overdue post from November after I just completed my final exam paper which concludes my two years of Degree! :D Just got my results and I am happy to announce that I am a Monash graduate now! That aside, after my first paper in November, the boyfriend and I decided to spend some time together over the weekend in conjunction with our monthniversary. We wanted to go for burger but The Grind Burger bar doesn't open until 12pm. So we decided on Ali, Muthu & Ah Hock (AMAH) to try their Nasi Lemak! My friend claimed that their nasi lemak was very good and even better than Village Park.</div>

The location of AMAH is really easy to find and in Oasis Ara Damansara there are plenty of parking available! So no worries of double park or waiting for parking. AMAH is located on the same row at Mr. & Ms., a corner lot shop beside Ayam Penyet Ria. Surprisingly they don't have a a big company signboard so if you're driving and circling to find AMAH, you may miss it.</div>

AMAH has a minimalist interior reflecting the feel of a kopitiam shop in the 70s but definitely more modern than then. There shop was moderately filled but it wasn't packed with people despite it being a Saturday, there were still many seats and tables available. Oasis Damansara is more packed on weekdays as there are offices there.</div>

Their menu as seen in the picture above consists of a range of Malaysian food. No fancy-schmancy dishes of any sort, just plain ol' Malaysian food. Well, our purpose there was for the Nasi Lemak but I read reviews that their Mee Goreng Muthu is not bad. So being the greedy people that we were, we each had a plate of Nasi Lemak Ayam each and a plate of Mee Goreng Muthu to share.</div>

The Mee Goreng Muthu was quite the kick. It is spicy so make sure you had something before you eat this. Somehow when I took the first bite, it is as if I am eating Rojak, because it does taste like rojak! Probably due to the taugeh, tofu and that other ingredient which you can find in a Rojak. I liked it because there wasn't the yellow noodles taste. I don't like that taste because it makes me "jelak" after that.</div>

The Nasi Lemak Ayam! Our verdict? Yes it is very good! I wouldn't say that the chicken tastes exactly like Village Park's but it does have some similarities. The sambal though was abit of a let down as it wasn't as spicy as I expected it to be. It was more sweet with a little spiciness to it just as it enters your mouth. The presentation in AMAH is way better than of Village Park. Village Park one feels like they just throw everything on your plate and serve it to you, at least AMAH's one has better presentation. The rice was soft and and the peanuts and anchovies were alot! Enough for the whole meal, it lasted right until I finished the rice and the chicken. </div>

However greedy you may be, only go for one meal per trip. After eating the Nasi Lemak and then the Mee Goreng, it was too much and we were pretty stuffed. You wouldn't enjoy the dish as it is. In terms of the Nasi Lemak, some might still prefer Village Park but it is up to individual preferences. If I had to pick, I would pick AMAH over Village Park for the price, environment and quality of food. Now there's a place where I don't need to wait for long queues and crowd with people over the loud noises in small spaces to get a good Nasi Lemak fix! ;)</div>

I am re-watching the Home Alone sequel as I am typing this post. Watching Home Alone, it brings back a sense of nostalgia. One that reminds me of a time when my brother was still around. It brings back the fuzzy feeling because this is one of the movies that I used to watch and re-watched over and over during Christmas and even though it's not Christmas. It is one of the memories that I remember watching with my brother and it was the time of the month even that we look forward for Christmas - singing Christmas carols from house to house, the great food, great company and Christmas parties. Also because close to Christmas it is my birthday! *grins*</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

I haven't blog about Tian Leng in a while and since today (3rd December) is his "anniversary", I thought that he deserved to know that he is not forgotten. Things have changed, people have changed... We all hope that you never left us during this very date 6 years ago. It's things like these that never change - the solemn feeling, the wishful thinking and the nostalgic memories. It's things like the memories of your cheeky remarks, the way you love to tease and bully, your seemingly rebellious nature yet still a dutiful brother and son that never change.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It has been 6 years already since his passing. Frankly when I look back at his pictures, his looks feel so foreign to me. It's because it has been so long that I have not seen his face and feel his presence physically that I have drifted away from how he used to look like. Now it feel as though it is hard to believe that I once had a brother. *sigh* I still wish that I do right now. I guess that is how it's like when you grow old in the future. I have always wondered and still wonder and I think will continue to wonder in the future, how my life, our family and life of your friends will be like if you were still here.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I believe that although many of us may be caught up in our daily routine life, deep inside each and everyone of us who holds you close to our hearts, there is a piece of you that remains with us. A place, an event or even the slightest familiar character of another person will remind us of you. Or at least for me that is. A fond memory of mine which I remember of Tian Leng during Christmas is our duet singing to Christmas Isn't Christmas (Till it Happens in Your Heart) during the house-to-house Christmas carolling. It's a really lovely song and I am happy that I once sang this song with my brother.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So here's to you dear brother, do know that you're never forgotten (at least until I am old and frail I guess *winks*).</div>

Earlier this year, I decided to make a change. To exercise regularly and eat healthier. I did so and managed to stick with the plan until now plus/minus the occasional cheats and special events. Before I started eating clean and exercising regularly, I was a glutton. Oh yes, I would just give in to my cravings like it was part of my meal time. One of my favourites are Aunty Anne's pretzel. I would get either their Sour Cream & Onion or Cinnamon Sugar or even BOTH *yikes*. Okay, so here's the deal. I love cinnamon. I love brown sugar AND cinnamon. I love cinnamon rolls. Auntie Anne's in One Utama is located just opposite Cinnabon. But the thing is, I never did fancy Cinnabon although I loved cinnamon rolls. The icing just scares me. I did however tried it once but I found it too sweet.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lately, with exams around the corner... and all stuffed in the house almost the whole day. You just can't help but try to find something to get you off track [deliberately]. The day before yesterday, I had the sudden craving for cinnamon rolls but the thing is, I didn't fancy Cinnabon (although they do smell terrific!) and these days I am not keen on Auntie Anne's either. Ever since I started eating clean, I cooked often and baked often. Especially baking because when you bake your own desserts or breads, you get to control the amount of ingredients that goes into the batter/dough etc. As I was saying, the cinnamon roll craving hit me so I decided to ask my friend for the recipe. She is amazing and so were her cinnamon rolls. She made a batch some weeks ago and it tasted so good, I just had to! My friend's recipe is adapted from <a href="http://sallysbakingaddiction.com/2013/05/08/easy-cinnamon-rolls-from-scratch/" target="_blank">Sally's Baking Addiction</a> which she tweaked to suit her taste buds, and I tweaked to suit mine.</div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1/2 cup icing sugar</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2 tbsps milk (or enough to form a smooth consistency)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1 tsp vanilla extract</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #e69138; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>DIRECTIONS</b></span><br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Dissolve the active dried yeast with a pinch of sugar with 2 tbsps of lukewarm water. Mix until no lumps and let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes, until it has bubbled and expanded.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Set aside 1/2 cup of flour, whisk the flour, sugar, salt and yeast together in a bowl until it combines to a rough paste. Mix in the water, milk and coconut oil. Add egg.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sprinkle in the reserved flour, by 1/4 cup increments, knead it until the dough is soft and it cleans the side and bottom of your bowl. The dough will be slightly sticky but not sticky enough to stick on your hands. It should have a slightly sticky surface and an elastic texture.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lift the dough and lightly flour the same mixing bowl. Place the dough in and cover with clean dish </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">to</span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">wel. Let it rest for about 10 minutes.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While dough is resting, prepare the filling. Mix ground cinnamon, molasses sugar and coconut oil until well mixed, set aside.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After 10 minutes, roll dough out</span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> into a rectangle of about 14 x 8 inches on a flat surface.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Spread filling all over the dough, and roll dough up into a tight log.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Grease a baking pan, and cut the dough approximately 2 inches per section. To make the cutting easier and smoother, try greasing the knife with oil or as how I did, I dusted mine with flour and wipe the knife clean after each cut.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Place dough onto greased pan, cut side up, and cover with dish towel. Let </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">rolls rise for about 1 - 1 1/2 hours until they have risen almost double.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Closer to the time when it has doubled in size (about 10 minutes before), preheat oven to 190 degree Celsius and bake for 25 - 30 minutes, or until the top are lightly browned.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Meanwhile, mix icing sugar, milk and vanilla. Stir everything together until there are no lumps in the sugar.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Right before serving, drizzle glaze over the rolls.</span></li>

The aroma of cinnamon rolls baking was just heavenly! I was
so excited and couldn’t wait for it to be done! I actually prefer it without the
glaze because I added lots of cinnamon into it! I substituted butter with
coconut oil because I didn’t have butter at home, and I was too lazy to head
out just to get butter. Also, it is a healthier alternative using coconut oil.
Plus, I found out that the texture of the bread was actually lighter as
compared to using butter and less oily/greasy. However, coconut oil is quite pricey so I would suggest if you do not have any future plans for the coconut oil, just stick with butter.</div>

I made sure not to include too much whole wheat flour as the
bread will turn out rock hard! If you plan on making whole wheat bread and not
cracking your teeth, mix it with all-purpose flour. The consistency of the
plain flour to whole wheat flour was perfect because the rolls turned out
fluffy and soft. It wasn't packed or heavy neither was it too filling. I plan on trying a healthier version than this, but it will require more work and more pure/natural ingredients.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="text-align: justify;">Halfway through baking, I realised how easy it was to make cinnamon rolls. Even easier than baking cake IMO. I guess there will be more of this in the future! Save my money, save my waistline! ;) I modified the recipe a bit to make it "less" sinful also because I made do with the ingredients that I have in my kitchen.</span></div>
