Chocolate

Today's theme is chocolate.
Had a hot chocolate at a cafe just before my interview last time. This one is quite unique with its pattern. And it's quite good! The right is just a normal hot chocolate or mocha. Can't remember.

And this is the chocolate muffin that we baked last time! ^^ Ain't it cute? We used spoon to put the icing on top and shape it. It doesn't look as nice as the picture on the box, but it tastes good! Well, I guess it would considering we used a whole block of butter. And if you heat it up the next day, it becomes something like chocolate lava cake! Nice!

Ok next time. ^^

Beer

Been a long time guys. Well because I didn't know what to post...for now, I'll post about.....beer!!! (laugh)
I had a beer called starker beer from Over Time in KL. Apparently it's from German.
And it's super good! It's not too strong/bitter and very smooth, very fresh. Maybe that's why it's so popular. Anyways, we ordered a barrel of the beer. Had 3 glasses. Awesomeness!! Best beer I've had so far. So, go try it out guys. hehe

Birthday!

It's my birthday today! Turning 21...yes the big 21!! time passes by so fast...but I don't feel any different though haha
Last weekend I went out with my sisters and her friends for dinner. And then we went to a cafe to yam cha and chat. It was supposed to be a surprise party for the October babies. In the end, the surprise party was not very surprising at all...haha...but it's all good..Had a very fun and relaxing evening.
Towards the end, they took out the cake and started singing happy birthday. Even the ang mo at the cafe sang with us and started the hip-hip hooray cheer! haha

It's a taro cake! It's quite good. I usually don't eat cakes unless its for special occasions. It's because I just don't like cake with too much cream.
Then my sisters gave me a birthday present! It's a perfume! yay!

My brother gave me a small purse-like handbag!

And my friend gave me a set of bubble bath & shower cream! haha

Whatever people give me for my birthday I'm always happy. haha....well who wouldn't...
Anyways, had a great birthday this year! Hopefully I'm one year older= one year wiser! haha

Taking pictures

What up guys! I come with more random photos using my new phone's camera.
Few days ago, I went jogging and took some pictures.

Blue sky with completely no clouds.

I really love this one! This is the park where I go to jog.

Ah btw, I went to a sushi place, with kind of a fusion of western and eastern theme. This is a mushroom cheeseburger sushi! yup! It's quite nice! Gonna find more time to go try their other foods.
And this is another time when I went with my family to a bar and grill.







This food here is super nice! Expensive but very very big portion as you can tell. haha...
The photos don't seem that clear under low light though. Maybe I was supposed to turn on flash or something.

That's all folks.

New Phone!!!

yay!!!! I finally got a new phone! hahaha! So happy! cuz I didn't change my phone for 3 and a half years already.

I wanted to change to a smart phone for a while. And I specifically wanted to try android phones, partly because the new iphone is gonna be really expensive. Initially, I wanted to get a samsung galaxy S2, but after trying it out, I find it too big for my taste, and the phone plan is more expensive, so I decided to go for HTC. According to some of my friend's opinion, they say that this phone is not bad. And I find it not bad too. I don't need the most high tech and latest stuff. So I think this is enough for me.

Now still in the process of figuring out the phone as I'm too old-school. hehe...

ok. See yall next time.

Another

Since I have nothing better to do (actually I'm procrastinating), I shall write another random blog about food.

This is the time I went with my sister and her friends to celebrate a person's birthday! This place is super fancy by the way as you can tell. Only because this is a special occasion that we went to this place.

Appetizers. This should be clams.

Appetizers again. Some sort of meat...forgot...hehe

Another appetizer. Bread with olives and stuff...

umm.....this should be a passionfruit drink..

This is beef with fois gras (fat duck liver) with some beansprouts or the like and mash potato.
(haha I see that I'm really bad at describing food)

This is some sort of fish! (haha I'm trying my best to remember what those dishes are ok)

And this is my dish! It's rabbits meat! never tried that before. not bad! taste kinda like chicken but not quite. It has a special kind of taste, just like how every meat has a different taste.

And finally, desserts! The desserts is nice but kinda...maybe too sweet for my taste..


Overall the meal tasted good (well it'd better, for they price they charge), but this would be my first and last time at that fancy restaurant. haha..It's good experience though.

That's all for today! see ya! (now I can't escape from homework anymore..T_T)
