The End of A lvl, The Start of Holidayssss

**my blog is revived!!! :D**

Firstly, I'm so happy to say that the whole A Level course finally comes to an end! ^^ But, at the same time, i feel reluctant to leave such wonderful friends and the lifestyle that i've been having for one and a half year. A level was tough for me honestly, i've regretted to register this course, and even thinking of quitting it after the first semester. But, after struggling, i finally made my decision to not to waste my parents' money and continue the journey wholeheartedly. As for Physics, the subject that i've been thinking so long to drop it, i finally decided to be friends with "him" (hehe), and now, i'm proud of myself for not giving up on "him", i took up a total 5 subjects for this whole course. :)

No doubt, A level was not an easy course for me, it needs strong determination, consistency to study, enthusiasm to learn and the will to sacrifice your leisure time. Still, it was a amazing journey that i had gone through, together with my dearest friends. And, i even meet my beloved during this journey (hehe :3)

 

Anyway, the end of A Level course also indicates the start of a very very long holiday. :)

I'll start with Day #1.

I had my breakfast with my bf at the Kluang station, DPC before we hit the road.

Really thanks to my bf that drive all the way from Kepong to Genting Klang just to drop me at the mall. :3 Met Ah Hui, Xue Ru, and Hui Qiong at the rendezvous and we went for shopping at Econsave. We'll be cooking for the girls today!! :DD

After shopping, we went to eat Guai ling go, while waiting for XueR to buy her waffle.

 Then, we took a taxi, back to the condo. Last time, we cooked at Hui's place, this time we cooked at XueR & HuiQ 's place. :)

After hours and hours of sweating it out to prepare a delicious meal for the girls,

we finally dug into:

 Mushroom sauce (that i prepared for the "modified" korokke) :DD

Korokke! It was my first attempt, i'm glad they like it. :DD
it was pan fried, rather than deep fried, coz' i don't want to waste my friend's cooking oil. :P

 HuiQ's black beer chicken (direct translate from Mandarin. lol.)

It has a beer smell, you won't taste the alcohol of it but a sweet & salty flavour. The chicken was cooked until tender and not too dry. It's very very nice :) 

 XueR's ABC soup! typical ABC soup ingredients are carrot, potato, onions and tomatoes. 

The soup was awesome, it contains the sweetness and essence of the vege, chicken and some other ingredients, which make the soup soo tasty! :D

The vege by HuiQ. I'm not exaggerating, but i think it tasted as tasty as the vege that is cooked in the restaurant, without the ajinomoto though. :D

and of coz' the rice :D

As for drinks, we had this peach flavored (blue) & red grape flavoured (red) sparkling juices.

The blue contains too much colouring that even though we washed the cups, we still can see blue stains in the bottom of the cup. :O never buy it again!

so matching! :D

 The girls: Wei Jan, Hui Qiong, Siew Hui, Xue Ru, me and Pei Khim! :D

 Cheers!

She finished my mushroom sauce. hehe!

 After that, we played cards. It was funn :D 

Later at night, 

after so long, i finally had my dinner with my bf at BIG, Publika again :DD

 I forgot what pizza is this. but it taste yummy as usual :) the toppings are basically shrimp, garlic and herbs! :D

 the menu of the day: Lamb shank pie!! it's AWESOME. <3 p="p">

with free salad at the side :)

so that's it for the first day!

First dayy was awesome! ^^

I hope it would be even better in the coming days :)

CNY celebration 2012 I

Yay! I'll end this January posts with a good post! i mean, finally a post with lots of fun photos. geegee. :D I think it will be divided into several posts. :)

Back from Ipoh around 6pm. Heading to Solaris, Mont Kiara in Min Yen's car :D

another two in Jeen Vern's car (EeLeen and Kevin)

Found our destination - Shuraku which is in the second floor :)

Love the creativity of the menu. X3

and the environment, which makes you feel like you're in some awesome typical Japanese Restaurant. You can actually see more foreigners than local people, especially Japanese who just finish their job and wanted to have a drink.

 

 

 

After long discussion, we finally decided what we wanted to eat. :D

 Green Tea

Everyone's first try: Toku toku non-bei sake

it was quite nice, as cold as ice when you sip it but as hot as fire when it slowly flow through you throat. According to the waitress, this sake is more sweet and smooth! :)

 

We actually ordered four dishes only. Coz we're poor students.lol.

Salmon Tataki with Goma dressing

Seared Salmon sliced dressed with special sesame sauce.

It was my favourite dish of the day! It's really hard to describe the taste but it's worth to try it for sure! love it!

Tori Karaage

Fried chicken cutlets

It's very crispy yet juicy! i like the mayonnaise spiced with some spice(?) :D

Age Gyoza

Deep fried minced pork 

erm... there's alot of filling in it, and no worries, no celery or extra vege in it. haha :D

 

some ordered gohan. (rice)

Lastly, (T^T)

Okonomi Yaki, Buta Tama

Japanese style grilled pancake with pork

it's lovely and it's quite thick! yum yum! :D

The Last Month of 2011 @With Friends :)

Sing karaoke. Craze to the max again. :D

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

 5th of Dec 2011

Green Society at my house!

 We had been sweating out to create something awesome for the green expo. hehe. :D

 Finally after hoursss...

taaadaa!! Heheeee. very proud of my our work. hoho! we used all recycled materials! **proud:)

 

 

7th of Dec 2011

After the counseling about our further studies in overseas at the college.

We (Wei Jan, Gary and I) went to KLCC for lunch!

Finally, after years of waiting. i got the chance to eat here:

Chinoz in KLCC

 Like usual, when escalator ascends, you can smell the very nice coffee smell.

It's that kind of smell which makes you want to have a cup of tea or coffee with some cookies/ desserts/ sandwich. haha.

Well, first impression towards this restaurant was not that good actually.

The waiter gave us the set lunch menu only after we asked to.

took so LONG time for us to take an order.

I think they were quite reluctant to serve us coz i think they think we are not-so-rich, like we could not afford to eat there. lol. ==

You can actually see the customers in the restaurant were either foreigners or those in suits.

We're the 'special' ones in casual wear.

Anyway......

The set lunch is still quite nice. :)

12pm-3pm, 2 courses, RM29 ++ (inclusive of soft drinks)

**a daily special dessert with supplement of RM10**

Lemonade. nice. :) 

Appetizer: Soup du Jour or Fattoush Salad

3 of us chose the soup which is Onion Soup.

 It taste actually quite nice, although you can see it's a bit oily. 

 it can be perfect only if the portion is big enough.

i think the 'bowl' is a stupid design. sorry to say that. 

and nope, the depth of that 'bowl' is not that deep also.

(no wonder the set lunch is cheap compared to the other choice in the menu. lol.)

Next,  is the main course, with the choice of

Linguine with Medley of Mushrooms in olive oil

Penne Pasta in Cream Sauce with Chicken

Seafood Lasagna with tomato sauce

Personal Tuna Pizza, sliced chili, Red Onion & Coriander

Personal Vegetable Pizza on pesto base

Chilled Ramen with crab stick, tamago, sliced prawn, sweet tofu & kyuri

Our choice is:

Penne Pasta in Cream Sauce

and

 

Linguine with Medley of Mushrooms

(love the name!)

Both taste nice!! but we agreed that the pasta was a little bit hard. :)

I like the environment there. hehe.

and the fan too! :D

Conclusion: Like the restaurant, not my favourite though.

The CLOVER gathering!

There's friend who asked me why we call ourselves as the CLOVER,

i told him: "long story". hoho. 

no laa.. is just that each alphabet represents one signature alphabet from our name

for eg: L - Low Yuqing. :)

Had a GREAT GREAT time with them at the Gardens and Mid Valley.

We sang karoake, ate, chatted and walked.

One of my favourite gathering in the holiday! :D
