New Face for Christmas Eve

Finally I got a new face for this blog after so long. It is always so troublesome to copypaste back those codes in the template.

Anyway, my internship is coming to an end next week and i can stop waking up so damn bloody early every morning and ended up taking a nap in the office next month onward. Cant help it, my eyes are more important than my work,hoho.

I had been thinking about the decision of taking up my current company's offer and i always ended up regretting it because it is not really related to what i had learned and studied. Only my Business Accounting knowledge has been applied in my work, not actuarial stuff like amortisation, interest rate etc. So i am kinda envy my friends that are having their internship in banks. Banks are my first choice. I should had went for the HSBC and ffk-ed my current company, oh well, too late regretting it. Gotta be optimistic! At least I got some new friends haha.Shut up, I am trying to console myself and make me feel better LOL.

Today is Christmas Eve and here I am, blogging and tetris-ing on fb, to lifeless. I think most probably tomorrow will be lifeless to. Somehow I emo about that, because of someone. Nevermind that, I will just rot at home then.

Thats a little updates of me for now, more will come, if what i wish will be granted after 31/12/2011 XD

A food journey to Onde Onde Restaurant!

Whenever I read the newspaper and come across with those food reviews by famous fellas, I think it is kinda cool to eat all those delicious food and best thing is, FOC! And so, I was kinda surprised and excited when i received a mail last wednesday from Mr Syed Abdul Muiz, thee manager of Onde Onde restaurant located at Water front, desa park city thanks to Michelle Leong. It is still kinda unbelievable that i got this chance to go for a food review event.

On thursday, me, michl and her sis went to the restaurant around 7.20pm.A brief introduction was given by Mr Muiz regarding the restaurant and the food. The restaurant was designed in baba nyonya style to give customers a different feeling. There are many variety of food from different places on the list, such as Penang Prawn Mee, baba nyonya food etc.







We were served with beverages,roti bakar and kuih as our starter. The cucumber drink is kinda special as the ingredients used are the Japan cucumbers, asam boi and lime, very refreshing indeed.
 the starters! the onde onde and i forgot the name for the other kuih lol
rate: 4/5
the roti bakar! It tastes good! Duck eggs were used as the ingredient of the kaya to bring out the aroma of the kaya and make it smoother 
rate: 4/5
the coffees and the cucumber drink. I like the coffee :)
rate: 4/5

 After that, we were served with Zhu Cheong Fan, Asam Laksa, Penang Prawn Mee and combo set as our main dishes, sagu and cendol as our dessert.

Main Dishes:
Zhu Cheong Fan: a flatter zhu cheong fan was used instead of the typical round and thick 1. The sauce used had Har Gou as one of the ingredient. This is the first time I had this food, so it tasted quite ok
rate: 4/5
Asam Laksa: One of my favourite food!!! In my opinion, it was too sweet for me as I am used to light taste kinda food. The sour was there but it was not sour enough to make me crave for more. Overall it is average for my standard
rate: 3/5
Prawn Mee: Overall it tasted good, but it is not spicy enough.
rate: 3/5

 Combo set: In the set, there are popiah, fried rice with scrambled egg and curry laksa. The fried rice tasted good but it was a bit oily. Besides that, the curry laksa was average for me, as it was not spicy enough.
rate: 3/5

Desserts:
I forgot the name of this dessert, anyway the ingredient was the sagu and with the mixture of santan and gula malacca. It was delicious! 
rate: 4/5

 the best of all, durian cendol!!!! this cendol is so delicious!!
 rate: 4.5/5

 My stomach was so full after the last dessert. In my opinion, the desserts served here are very good. Another place to be considered besides Jonker 88. I am not saying Jonker 88 is not good, it is just too far to go and quite impossible for us to go whenever we crave for cendols. Thanks again to Mr Muiz for his invitation!

ps: this is my first food review though, so please be lenient to me lol

Nike We Run KL10k 2011

Participated in the Nike Run last Sunday and it was awesome! This was the 2nd time i took part in marathon and i am proud of myself XD. 

The event took place in Padang Merbok and it was a 10KM marathon, no joke, damn far! LOL. It was twice the distance compared to my 1st marathon which was 5km. Gotta woke up at 4.30am and drove to Dataran Merdeka after meeting up with wei wen, chew, sarah and her friends.

We arrived around 6.40am and there were so many people walking towards Padang Merbok. The run started at 7am and it took a while for the crowd to start moving, imagine how many people were there. It was a very nice view of seeing a huge bunch of people wearing the same red nike shirt and ran at the same time.

I finished the marathon around 1.5 hours, taking my sweet time running XD. It was fun to run with so many people that have the common goal and spirit.

At the finishing line, we queued up to get a bottle of mineral water, banana and a gift. The gift was very interesting. If you dun believe me, check this out: 
guess what is this :)

Air Pegasus!
I bought my 1st Nike shoes a day before the run, since i have the 20% discount and my current shoes was going to retire soon. It took me around an hour to finally decided to buy this shoes after wondering between the Royal Sport House and Nike Store.

Last but not least, a group pic! XD

We went back to BSD to have our breakfast around 9.30am, we were too hungry!!!! XD

I am getting more interested in marathon now and I hope there will be more runs!! More t-shirts! LOL
