before heading off to kuantan
we had traditional breakfast at this famous small little coffee shop!

Photobucket

Photobucket

i tell you the HAND MADE bread was oh-so-delicious!!!
dun judge by its plain appearance¬

Photobucket

and the half boiled kampung chicken eggs were awesome too

Photobucket

look at those yolks!

Photobucket

after a very satisfying breakfast we headed straight to kuantan
and this bridge signifies that we are approaching our destination!
look thats kuantan river¬

Photobucket

and yes! another recommended place for lunch =)

Photobucket

it was full house! and most of the thing had sold out
we had the popular curry noodles without chicken and ‘hum’

Photobucket

had a stroll at the beach and of cos alot of cam whore time after lunch =P

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

my mum joined me toooooooo

Photobucket

Photobucket

and then my dad¬¬

Photobucket

Photobucket

family jump shot¬

Photobucket

well.. we were trying to do this shot tgt…

Photobucket

but what u saw above were cut and paste cos we just couldnt get the timing right for this!!!!

after beach we went back to our room
(we were too early so the room wasnt ready..)

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

we stayed at riverside boutique guesthouse
it is a guest house with at least 4 star environment!
small and cozy
super loveeeeeeeeeeeeee

Photobucket

Photobucket

remote control for the fan in the room in case u dun want the aircon

Photobucket

me =)
on the way to the famous laozi temple with 2700ft dragon!!

Photobucket

erm well and we lost our way and went to the wrong temple!
it has a, erm, less than 27ft long dragonn? tsk tsk..

Photobucket

still pretty nice eh?

Photobucket

Photobucket

since we couldnt find laozi temple
we decided to go to charas cave
which is abt 17km further

Photobucket

Photobucket

cute little new born puppies on the way up to the cave!

Photobucket

after 127 steps we finally reached the entrance of the cave!
and we started going in

Photobucket

Photobucket

first buddha

Photobucket

we just skipped taking pics along the way and went to the famous slpg buddha at the end

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

the cave is so big..

Photobucket

Photobucket

outside of the cave..

Photobucket

look! this are the kind of steps i took to get to the cave
scary right!!!

Photobucket

got some holy water for my dad n mom
as they decided not to go up after hearing the 127 steps..

Photobucket

everyone wants some good luck from the holy water

Photobucket

let me strike 4D plssssssssss

Photobucket

i am very sincere!

Photobucket

ok finally.. after getting lost, going to the wrong temply etc..
we are finally here! - laozi temple!

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

and i found me in the temple too haha!

Photobucket

here is the tail of the famous 2700ft long dragon!

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

here we started our 15min walk

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

and finally we came out from the dragon’s mouth!!
touch the dragon crystal ball for good luck =)

Photobucket

we were told we cannot go in from the dragon’s mouth
as they believe it signifies that you are being ‘eaten’ by the dragon
which is supposed to be a very bad thing
and you know why initially we couldnt find the temple?
cos the chinese name and english name were totally different!!
we kept looking for Laozi Temple
but there were only chinese signboards
so we were looking desperately for 老子庙
but in the end we found out it is actually 太上老君庙
well they are the same person but can they just standardize the translation!!
but all because we lost our way
we met them here!!!

Photobucket

relatives all the way from singapore!
omg so coincidental haha!

Photobucket

after that we continued to take a few more pictures before we go for dinner =)
the dogs n the pigs¬

Photobucket

and the moo-moos

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

and then its dinner time~

Photobucket

shark!! super delicious!

Photobucket

a so-so only pork

Photobucket

Photobucket

and best dish of the day - fresh steamed fish!!

Photobucket

after that we went to east coast mall for a walk
didnt really shop cos it was too late
just bought some snacks and drinks
and we headed back to the hotel to get some rest before we start our journey again! =D

went for a dinner date with xp at shaw tower~
a gem where many would have neglected hehe


what i remember about shaw tower is that
i used to catch some movie block busters like 10 years ago here
the movie previews in the very big theatre
other than that i seldom come here because of its location
(beach road is somewhere between suntec and bugis)

shaw is a name i supposed everyone in singapore would know
but how many would know the story behind shaw?
the shaw brothers started the shaw foundation
cos they believe that they shld give back to the society for what they have obtained from the society
and shaw foundation is one of the largest philanthropic organisations in the world

upon completion of prince and jade cineplexes at shaw tower
the team were the first to introduce the concept of cineplexes into Singapore
which has become a standard today

now, block buster movies are no longer showing at shaw tower
the retail wing -
‘Shaw Leisure Gallery or SLG’ is its name now
it is a budding place for entrepreneurs with new products and concepts
as well as a destination shopping place for niche and unique products and services
shoppers can expect a personalized shopping experience here

ok so why did we come all the way here?


because thru research we know that there is this very very good and cheap thai restaurant!


argh the queue is sooooooo long
and we were informed that they were taking last order in an hours time =(
we gave up and decided to change for sth else
and we chanced upon this on second level~


hmm turkish cuisine
seems pretty nice and we decided to give it a try~


very comfortable and spacious environment inside



happy us~
waiting for our food hehe~


the service here was very very good
and the waiters and waitresses were very attentive
they were always around when you needed them
and most importantly
the food was served very fast!


my appetiser mushroom soup


no, it wasnt like what you expected
it was mushroom soup with a turkish twist
i also dunno how to describe
it was a blend of mushroom and kebab yeah thats right!
and i love the bread~

this is another appetiser i ordered
egg plant salad and it turns out to be my favourite favourite!
(i finished the whole thing myself since xp doesnt eat vege -_-)
and being an egg plant lover myself
i really really love this!


chicken baked rice for him


to me it was a bit salty
but he likes it =)


this is for me - the chef’s platter
all the meat are very well marinated
salty if you just eat the meat alone
but fantastic and goes perfectly with the bread
(yeah i really love their bread - crispy outside and soft inside. makes me hungry now bloggin abt it )=


after dinner we decided to sit a chill for a while
as this is a really nice environment
too bad all the window seats were taken
i would wanna sit by the windows and watch the night scenery while i dine the next time!

we ordered this sofra special mocktail


looks just like any other normal drink right?
later i will show u that it is NOT
we happily camwhoring the whole way =P



and this is what i wanted to show u~


there is this bandung like jelly in the drink
(the holes were poked by me using the straw oops)
and my favourite were the nuts and raisins inside the drink!
no it didnt taste weird
the blend was perfect
i dunno how they did it
i could nv imagine putting jelly and nuts and raisins inside a drink!
but it was so nice~

very satisfied xp =)

see the windows seats?
i wanna sit there next time!

2 april 2009

just like any typical thurs, i got to go tuition after work.. but i love my tuition assignment! the mother is extremely nice to me and always invite me for dinner (which helps me save money! =P) shannon is a lovely kid and she sometimes like to give me ’surprises’ by going down stairs to fetch me hehe..

did her hair for her while she was doing her work.. and i was bored =Pafter tuition i was going to meet gary and huishan for a drink
while waiting at the bus stop..
i know i look super toot in glasses and i jus cut my fringe!
but i just decided to wear glasses at least once a week to rest my eyes
wearing contact lenses the whole day facing the computer screen is super bad for the eyes!
i know once a week doesnt help much
but it does make my eyes feel better at least a little more?
haha~
after a drink and a cheesecake at PS starbucks
xp decided to meet us to have supper!
poor xp jus knocked off at 11 feeling extremely hungry =(
okiez.. nothing better to do while waiting..

super ugly haha


yay finally~

i cried real bad today
over the loss of something really precious to me
i just found out when i was unpacking my stuff
because it wasnt me who packed during shifting

it was love at first sight when i saw it
then i looked at the price
it wasnt really that steep
but it was expensive for me and it wasnt a necessity
i hesitated, and then i gave it up

ever since that day
i would go into that shop everytime i happened to walk by
or maybe walk by on purpose
i was trying to convince myself that i would eventually get sick of it
but it jus happened to prove otherwise
i really loved it

i kept contemplating until one day
xp bought it for me
that was about few weeks later
and it jus made it all the more special cos its from him
i admired it for hours until i finally kept it in my cabinet

and thats the thing i lost

why must u take it away from me
its not like its worth a million dollar
why must u be so desperate to even steal it from my room
why dun ppl consider about others’ feeling
maybe these ppl are not human at all
to u its just money
and stealing ‘just money’ is not sth right to begin with;
to me its priceless
no second piece can replace the meaning of it
even if i can get sth that looks exactly the same
its just not the same anymore

i thot it was just a nightmare
but nightmare doesnt take away ur precious
it was worse than a nightmare
i just hope i have the ability to shut off this memory

everyone knows that i am extremely sentimental
the loss was more than just sentimental values
i know i might not be able to stop crying right away
but i must believe that
in life there is alot more beautiful n wonderful things to come
for one day when i recall this incident
i wun feel the pain of loss anymore

yeah i must fill myself with positive energy!
