Everything's so blurry

Aaaaahhh!

I've just collected my new set of glasses from the specs shop (astig power naik), but the left eye is blur compared to the right :(

My mom suspected its due to my inability to keep things nice and clean. Yes, I know my room tu bersepah ala pig sty, but that does not reflect a person's cleanliness! It's just some magazine and small items here and there ...plus, i do vacuum every other week. hermp

Then, my mom continued babbling about the mud from the bootcamp etc etc etc. And that... got me pissed. You see, I've started bootcamp early this month and I absolutely love it (despite waking up at 4.50am). The results = brilliant - body a bit toned, stamina improved, meet some really nice and inspiring ppl (one actually lost 6kgs after a few mths in bootcamp)! -->nanti i buat another entry for bootcamp :D

Suprisingly, I did not argue back and simply senyap and walk away. OK OK, I senyap mainly cos sometimes I need her help to wash the tshirt (hihi).

Anyway, this blur vision is really annoying. Need to see eye specialist asap. Hope it's nothing serious...

Weigh-in and Putrajaya Night Run

Firstly, congratulations to Team 1 for unofficially wining the 4th weigh-in. *clap*clap*.

We celebrated our win that by joining the Putrajaya Night Run that night. Our sifu (kiah) ran the half marathon and the rest of team + mess did the 7.7km race.

We were really hungry before the run and wanted to grab McD sebagai alas perut tetapi plan tergendala kerana kami tersesat ke Nilai on the way to Putrajaya (i personally think that it's a sign from God) and only reached there 15 minutes before the registration time. So, saya pun berlarilah (or berjalan) dgn perut yg sungguh lapar. The only thing that kept me going was the tought that there's a possibility that my thighs will be smaller after the race (which it did not). Nevertheless we had fun.

Would i join a 10km run after this?

Definitely not.

Jalan-jalan Jonker

A fortnight ago, Esah, Meah, Mess and I went for a quick getaway to Melaka. We dedicated the trip to Cik Me'ah who will be migrating to Miri very soon. My faithful Mr Wiggie drove us down, arriving in Melaka just in time for a hefty light lunch @ Donald & Lily's, a cosy little Baba & Nyonya place just nearby Jonker Walk. Famous for its cendol & Curry Laksa, we all had our fair share [except for Cik Esah, who tricked us cause she only ordered taukua rojak for lunch! Deymm you!] hehehe.

 lovely me'ah

We then walked along Jonker Walk to ease our gastrointestinal tracts. 

And then we found this. 

Pineapple tarts. Nyummm!

And of course, we had to do the touristy sh*t stuff too.

We also visited Me'ah's favourite Cheongsam shop.

Miss Nyonya's Next Top Model.

We then spent the afternoon exploring Mahkota Parade [transl. lepak @ Starbucks, minum kopi and gossiping] & wandering around in Dataran Pahlawan [transl. beli Cakar Ayam]. A few hours later, as the sun started setting in the horizon, we made our way to ---- [Esah, fill in the blanks please], a seafood joint located about 1/2 hour from Malacca town. Nice Malay seafood cooking, though we made the mistake of ordering too many chilli-based dishes. Bumped into a senior of ours back in high school, who now resides in the United States. 

[For Toblaterians, 10 pts shall be awarded for guessing correctly who that person is]

After dinner, we headed back to Jonker Walk for the night-time experience this time. Huge crowd, that's for sure. I kept holding on to the thought of enjoying Cendol Durian @ Bibik's house to motivate me through that 'lautan manusia'. Unfortunately, the heavens have decided that I've already eaten too much for the day and it was totally sold out once we reached there.

Luckily we had some entertainment to cheer ourselves up that night. A huge stage was erected in the middle of Jonker Walk for a '1Malaysia' [gulp!] event to celebrate Ali Rustam's 10th year in power as Ketua Menteri Melaka and Jonker Walk's 10th year anniversary. 

 Basically, it was a Chinese karoeke session.

You just hafta ❤ his toupée.

All in all,
we had a great trip and a marvellous time. Good food, good company, what more could you ask for. Definitely have to head down again soon to get that Cendol Durian.

Me'ah drove us all back to KL that night, and later confessed that she too had fallen in ❤ with Mr Wiggie. Just as Miss Temah did during our Tenggol trip a few months back. 

Mr Wiggie, you are definitely my unsung hero.

H.A.N.G.M.A.N. Theme Song?

This is a song we discovered whilst holiday-ing in Bandung. Odah is definitely a big fan to the point where she even bought the bands CD to prove her adoration for them hehehe.

Hope you guys enjoy this as much as we had fun discovering its lyrics and singing it during our karaoke session in Bandung!

Enjoy u ols! ;P

Song : Cari Jodoh

Album : Orang Bilang

Apa salahku apa salah ibuku
Hidupku dirundung pilu
Tak ada yang mau dan menginginkan aku
Tuk jadi pengobat pilu
Tuk jadi penawar rindu
Tuk jadi kekasih hatiku
*
Timur ke barat selatan ke utara
Tak juga aku berjumpa
Dari musim duren hingga musim rambutan
Tak kunjung aku dapatkan
Tak jua aku temukan
Oh tuhan inikah cobaan
**
Ibu-ibu bapak-bapak
Siapa yang punya anak
Bilang aku aku yang tengah malu
Sama teman-temanku
Karna cuma diriku yang tak laku-laku
***
Pengumuman-pengumuman
Siapa yang mau bantu
Tolong aku kasihani aku
Tolong carikan diriku kekasih hatiku
Siapa yang mau

Back to *, **, ***

Ibu bapak punya anak
Bilang-bilang aku aku yang tengah malu
Sama teman-temanku
Karna cuma diriku yang tak laku-laku

Back to ***

Sago Cendol @ Jonker Dessert 88

I read somewhere that you should never leave Melaka without having at least 1 bowl of cendol. Thus, during my recent trip to Melaka with my colleagues I insisted on stopping for Cendol despite our tight schedule ("it'll be a sin not to" i said).

That's how I discovered Jonker Dessert 88.

the to-die-for sago cendol (RM3.00)

The cendol was simply delicious!! Super thick gula melaka and creamy santan (i'd like to think that it's 0% fat) - one of the best I ever had. Reasonably priced too - RM1.70 for normal cendol and RM3.00 for cendol durian, cendol sago and etc.

Do visit this rather sinful shop if you're ever in Melaka:
