Current Me :)

So, this is the current me, with Michele Mika camwhoring at library in Week 2 of this semester!
And I blonded my hair! Yes! This is true, because the color which is chosen by my dearest sister is "very Light-Golden Blonde"
Luckily the outcome is still acceptable, if not I guess I will be the laughing stock until I get back to the original color. Heh! :)
So, do you like it or you prefer my hair in black?

Tawau - Part 2

Basically, this post is about some local delicacies in Tawau that I thinks it awesome ♥ 
As promise, this is the Indo Cafe that we went on a random day to have our tea-time,  about the specific location, I don't have any idea, but I tell you, they served the best ever uniquely 'pisang goreng'. The uniqueness of the 'pisang' is when they served added with gula melaka and shredded cheese.
OMG! It's heavenly yummylicious I can assured you =)
I personally ♥ 'pisang goreng' topped with gula melaka + cheese =P

 Closer view of my ♥

Besides, they also served several types of 'pisang goreng' but we ordered those highly recommended and   hearts by the peoples there. Another type is 'pisang penyet'. Normally, they will crush the banana and then flatten it and fried it to achieve the crunchiest state and it can dipped with sambal. Those sambal is more or less the same like those we can find in 'nasi lemak'. It wil not be my favorite cause it is not sweet. Personally, I feel that eating banana must be sweetened or sweet, if not it will be weird. But, not harm giving a try :P

 -'Pisang Penyet'-

Dessert, this is the freaking awesome yummylicious mango sago ♥♥♥ that I ever tried.

Words can't describe the awesomeness of it. The plus point is, I'm a mango lover, and this definitely is in my top list of dessert that I ever had =)

I don't even think I can find this in West M'sia. *Disappointed*

Hmmm, what I can do is to have second attempt before flying back to West M'sia to compensate my craving for it.

 

 -Mango Sago ♥♥♥-

Coming to Sabah never have seafood is kinda waste, and we are so fortunate that ShiaoPing's aunt, who is staying in Tawau gave us a treat at Kam Ling Seafood Restaurant. According to my Cheryl, this seafood restaurant is the most grand in term of it expensiveness. The foods served was fresh and there are a lots of variety of seafoods we can find in that restaurant, and some even have funny name.

-It this kind of grouper common or exist?-

Till here... and I gotta fully enjoy my last day in Tawau with those kind of awesome delicacies!!!

Tawau - Part 1

Tawau vacation as per-scheduled has already reached, and yes we are going to rock Tawau, and too bad someone ffk-ed us which resulted only 3 of us heading to Tawau with our host, Cheryl and several of her Tawaurian :) Our flight was on 3th of Jan and basically, we wasted the 3th with TI-LCCT-TAWAU which took us roughly about 12 hours ++

And as now, is Day 3 me and my friends had been staying in Tawau, in Sing Onn, which is Cheryl's house, that is pretty relaxing and comfortable, and close to mother nature. I likey ♥

Recapping events or activities throughout our vacation until today is not an easy task, because I have a smaller space of memory installed in my mind but luckily, photos that been captured enlightened me a lots!

Tuesday - 4/11/2011
4th in the morning, had Cheryl's favorite Soto at Kopi Yuan Yuan, Megah Jaya. According to her, that place we went for our soto is her favorite that she thinks is the best, and she bought several of West Msia's friends before us, and they all claimed it was best and like it very much! However, 3 of us find it was so-so. Heh, she must be disappointed!

 -Front of the shop-

I don't eat beef thus I ordered Seafood Soto. Seafood soto comes with variety of fresh hand-made seafood, such as prawn balls, fish balls and fish slices. Soto give me the impression of a Malay's delicacies because when I was in primary school, my school canteen do selling soto, and mostly Malays heart them a lot, I guess. However, it was indeed a nice try :)

-Beef Soto-

 -ABC (Ass Burning Chili)-

 Indeed spicy hot and interesting for chilli's lover ♥

4th in the night, we had steambot buffet at Daily Q. Food was great and most important, it was big, fresh and yummy. I had most of the crab and shell-ish seafood and their own home-made fish ball. It was QQ, and I likey ♥

 To be continued...

*Indo Cafe's banana and mango sago ♥ and both are my FAVORITE

* Sang Yuk mee (er, should I repeat?)

* and etc.... 

Tomorrow's highlight : Borneo Semporna Proboscis River Cruise. Hope it will be interesting :)

Shopping ♥ Shogun ♥ Movie

tThe next day, which is 15/12/10 before he starts off his new career in Accenture, Ray brought me to Sunway for glutton-ing, shopping and movie purposes. Indeed a caring bf he was because he knew that the following day he will not able to bring me go around, thus we spent our day fruitfully on that day =)

We reached Sunway around 11am, and since we wanted to go for Shogun which their buffet will only be operated at 12pm, we went for shopping and he got his hair-cut. I managed to get myself some new apparels, which are two pieces of lovely floral vintage-ish dress. 

♥ the dresses and of course him a lot, cause he bought that to me =)

Photos are not shown as Imma lazy to capture and I don't have a nice camera to shoot, and which results the photos below are so in low quality. My w705 seriously is not getting any better in capturing photos but still there are handy when I don't have camera. Er, if you notice the post we in Genting-KL, the photos all are taken by my sis's digital Sony TX-5.

Can I  have a camera for my christmas wishlist? * Santa Claus, can you hear me?!* Lol!

Ok, enough for crapping, I shall continue. Before we went for Shogun, we went to Krispy Kreme to have donuts to fill up our growling stomach. Original glazed is always my favorite though it is simple with just sugar coating it. Other than that, it never get into my nerves as Krispy Kreme, is rarely available in the place I am living now. If you asked about Big Apple, I got at least top 5 favorites :P

 Notice the hair-cut that he got for himself? He's been complaining and until now, he is still complaining, which you can see it in his quite latest status in FB.

 We at Shogun before start to glutton =)

The varieties food we had, and of course, there are lots more, perhaps due to my priority is just on the food, this is consider better already compared to TAO *giggles*

After glutton-ing, shopping and so on, is time for us to go for movie. I been always wanted to watch the new movies that will be screening soon which is on 16th Dec 2010 featuring my favorite, 'Xiao Xiao Bin', but that day is only 15th! Hmmpph, and I hope TI will be screening it, or else I think I will get my butt up to Ipoh for that =) We went for The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of Dawn Trader. It was still a nice movie though I don't get to watch the first and second of Narnia movies.

We went home right after movie because he needed to prepare for his stuffs for his job the next day. 

The day is fun with his companion, though sometimes, he likes to mess with me, makes lame jokes and makes me angry. Well, sometimes he is just so adorable when you seeing him acting like a child. I ♥ you a lot, Ray Chow! Do you ♥ me too? Lol!

Everything is just so wonderful when I'm with you ♥

Is HOLIDAY again

Exam for Year3 Sem2 is officially ended 13th of December 2010, which means I will have a month plus of holiday before marching into the real final semester of my degree in Utar Kampar. Anticipating to get graduated because friends around me are either graduated or already working for at least 2 years. Hmmmph..

Ok, Ray come and find me and together we back to TI before headed to KL as we planned before I finish my exam. Thanks god that the time pretty matched up cause he just resigned IBM and was very free until today, he started his new career in Accenture. And me coincidentally, finish my exam just on the right time. 

After a day in TI, dinner with his family and going back to my home to meet my beloved family, we went to KL on 14th. We reached around 3pm plus in the evening and went for our lunch. He brought me to Subang USJ19, and we had steambot at 100°C Steamboat, Teppanyaki & BBQ Restaurant. 

100ºC is a unique restaurant which offers diners more than 10 different types of steamboat soup to choose and more than 20 different varieties of sauces to dip. All this make it special especially when we have our own individual pot of steamboat, thus making it more convenient and hygienic. All their steamboat ingredients are freshly prepared daily making it irresistible just by looking it. I personally love their own hand-made fishball. Feeling so QQ :) Is a must-try!

 

Sharkfin soup base and fish head soup base

 100ºC at USJ19

That night itself, we went to Snowflake with another gf of mine, ShinYing. I was buzzing at his ear a lot until he have to bring me to go though he complaint a lot. He complaint that is very traffic jam, but hell yeah, I don't care cause I don't always get my butt up to KL, and the reason why I always wanted to go to Snowflake is because I heard a lot about this place that selling yummylicious Taiwanese dessert. 

Seriously, I in ♥ with snowflake bestseller. Just now I went for the second attempt, thought to tried the other such as taroball series cause I love taro balls. So chewy~ But to my disappointment, it was not as good as when I had it with the bestseller's version.

This beeping UFO is given to us and when it "light" at the above photo, means your dessert are served and ready to be taken =)

The above is the 'snowflake bestseller' which combination of "grass jelly series" + "taro ball series".

The bottom one is grass jelly series which the combination of set 4(Red Bean+Taro+Pearl)

That's the end of my first day at KL.  Wanted to update for the next day, but I guess I can't because I need to wake up at 5am later, so, is best to sleep now :) 

Tomorrow will be shopping day again, but sadly, alone. FML betul :(

Yes, I am always lucky and blessed when I have YOU beside me ♥

Call me the Ms. Emo

I wish to update, but yet I don't have mood and time to do so.
Final is next Saturday, but I didn't even have the spirit to start revision.
Pathethic betul!
Feeling emo recently for don't know why, and I hate this kind of feeling.
Could be due to exam stress or my own personal matters.
Anything, I just hope everything could go right, and I don't think so much that make me become more and more emo. Hmmm, and hope I really could do that.
There is something that you wouldn't know, and I hope you are the one who will be the one who understand my feeling

We in Genting-KL ♥

Hey there,
I know it's been some time since the last update!
Ok! I got reason for this! I'm having a very very SHORT semester in this semester! I traveled a lots back then very weekend with my dear! I been as while busy coping with fyp/assignments/studies!
Er, I lied..... cause the ultimate reason behind of not updating is because, "IMMA LAZY" :X

Let me rewind some sort of things I have done previously. Just a random one, ok? Cause I found out myself don't remembered well things that are past.

#1 I have been to Penang during Deepavali with my dear. So good of him to plan a short vacation with me during Deepavali, when both of us are free since it is public holiday. He wanted to bring me to TAO, as he always complimented how good the food was. I probed then, and asked, "Why not in KL? TAO has another outlet in Sunway Giza" He told me that he want to run away from the 'stress city' once in a while. Poor him, has to face the stress of working in KL. Hope it would be better for him when he move to Accenture. Alright, let's get back. We went to have the best Cendol and Penang fried Kuey Teow. Satisfaction achieved! I personally felt if you have been to Penang, and yet didn't get to taste the delicacies that I have mentioned, don't even said you have been to there :P Later on, we went to War Museum, the Aquarium and had a stroll in Autocity before we went for TAO, which is the ultimate reason for this short vacation :)
The food there no doubt was sumptuous, but the best is doubled up when you having your companion by your side for everything :)
By the way, thanks to Pun Chong and his gf for the hosting and the ride during our entire day in Penang :)
P/s : Photos of Penang is in FB, go and have a look if you are my friend in FB XD

#2 Last week, Haji's holiday, which is another public holiday, I went to Genting-KL with my dear and we went there on Tuesday late evening. November month is full of holiday in between 2 weeks, and this enables us to take a break from our daily routine to go for a short vacation. It has been a year plus since we last went there. Things doesn't change much there. We been to casino, because I dragged him in, since at 12 am, everything is closed and we have got nothing much to do after the dinner at GICC.

 Some sort of stationery association dinner held at GICC

 The funny him tried on the pampers and see whether it absorbed water or not. How silly he was. Lol! I have no idea too why pamper is included inside the pack of gifts because it is supposed to be all stationery inside.

This is taken early morning before we went out for our buffet breakfast :)

 and this? Lol! He insisted to back for toilet break after breakfast. I must admit that his digestive system is way too efficient :P

The earring from him ♥ and I have another 2 pairs ♥

Please ignore my chubby face! :(

#3 So, on that day itself, we went back to KL, which is on Wed afternoon due to transportation problem we were facing. This is because we suppose to meet up our friends but we had to back before they even arrived. Since we can't do anything, why not we back to KL and we still can chill out at KL ♥ Reached KL around 2pm if I'm not mistaken. Back to home to drop our luggage and waited to go out for our lunch, and we went to Station One at Taipan USJ, 10. The food served was yummylicious ♥ 

 I must admit that Imma way too health conscious recently and sky juice is the only beverage I ordered every time I went out for meal. Does this sounds aging? Oppss :X

 His meal ♥

 Mine ♥

 Mixed-grill ♥

Seafood spaghetti ♥

After meal, we went for pool session. It was not fun at all because I kept losing to him. 

Hmmmm, is guy is more talented in every sports compared to girl? Duh, I must nail him one day, er, if possible. Lol!

We then went to Summit for movie, watched Megamind, which is some sort of cartoon-ish movie. He might be mature from outside but childish from inside, that is why Megamind? Lol! But, I still ♥ him a lots! I enjoyed the movie but he told me he almost fall asleep because he was too tired. Poor him.

We ended our night again at Station One near Sunway because we promised to meet up with friends that we were not able to meet up at Genting. Chilled for a moment and I was just too tired to really have a nice talk with everyone there. I guess it will be ok cause I will meet them soon coming Saturday for our lil princess Hayley 1 year old birthday bash party. Can't wait for that because everyone can gather and meet up because this opportunity is rare after everyone has their own life after graduate from high school ♥

I must admit that I took a lot of time to just finish up this post! Hmmmm, my ability of blogging is getting weaker due to Imma clueless for words. FML! *yawns* Time to hit to bed, and I will update more if possible :) 

Top 10 reasons go for MBA

You may be a fresh graduate from college or one with some working experience. Perhaps you want to do something more with your life, something with a higher purpose. Well have you ever thought about pursuing an MBA?

As the pace of change accelerates, we can take comfort in knowing that the Masters in Business Administration (MBA) degree is still a ‘constant' worth embracing. Indeed for many, an MBA continues to be the cornerstone for the success they're looking for.

There're many reasons why an MBA might be perfect for you. Here are the top 10 reasons why you should take the plunge:

1. Earn a widely-recognized top credential
   An MBA is a degree, granted after one to two years of graduate-level university study that provides training in both the theory and practice of business management. It certifies that you have a general competency in all the major functional management roles in the modern corporation. In fact, an MBA is recognized throughout the world as a *high-level* credential and may be your passport to a promising career.
   
   
2. Flexible study arrangements:- Full time, part time and online program are available.
   MBA programs can be taken at your chosen pace but must be completed within a maximum of five years. Some MBA programs are designed to minimize disruption to normal work demands and home life, so even if you are still studying or working, you could choose to attend classed in the evenings and the occasional weekends.
   
   
3. An increase in earnings potential.
   From an income point of view, statistics show that on average, a person with an MBA will start off at about 12% more than someone with a basic degree. Ten percent more each month for one year is 120% and in a 10 year span, that amounts to a very large sum. Your MBA is an investment in yourself and as with any other investment, you have to decide if the potential return is worth the time and money spent.
   
   
4. Greater opportunities to work in a country or geographical region of your choice.
   One word: mobility. Everyone hits the wall at some point and longs for an opportunity with more responsibility and different duties. MBA programs give you the competitive edge you need to separate yourself from the competition. An MBA degree can also be used to improve social, environmental and economic standards in private and non-profit businesses throughout the world.
   
   
5. Grow your networking resources.
   An MBA acts like a magnet attracting talented people from every corner of society. These professional relationships will serve you well throughout your career, providing essential mentoring and contacts. Such networking is not limited to fellow students but includes internship opportunities, drawing upon a highly qualified faculty. These qualities make the fabric of the MBA experience a good and comfortable fit for almost anyone.
   
   
6. Polish your communication skills.
   Communication skills are just as if not more important than the other business analysis skills as it is the key to business success. A survey conducted by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business rated listening skills and the ability to manage change in the workplace as the most crucial skills to succeed in today's business.
   
   
7. Advancement in Career.
   MBA also at times serves as an entry ticket to many organizations, whose doors are open most exclusively for MBA graduates. A Master of Business Administration prepares you for a managerial role in your current field, whether or not you're already in the business world. Medical professionals, publishing professionals, real estate agents and tech support specialists are among the many that benefits from an MBA degree and attain a more rewarding position in their existing career.
   
   
8. A chance to learn standard tools for organizing business activity and managing business processes.
   MBA is a managerial qualification that is all about learning leadership. MBA provides the tools, techniques and resources needed to run a business, namely risk management plans, performances plans, and project management as well as marketing plans. Managing a business is a strategic asset. Just like job promotions, you get recognized for the work you've already done and not based on the work you are going to do. Start taking up more responsibilities in handling business activities both in good and hard times as you will never know when you will be facing a crisis in future.
   
   
9. Be your Own Boss with an MBA.
   If you have an entrepreneurial spirit, an MBA course can help you reach your goals. The leadership skills and management training gained can be turned into something profitable which includes bringing a new business to life. If you have the creativity, people skills and drive to start a business, a good graduate program will train you in critical areas like business planning, venture financing and small business management.
   
   
10. Gain an in-depth understanding of the business world.
    The world of business is ever changing and complex. It is composed of many fields and principles that all interact with each other at the same time. An MBA program is a well-rounded degree that covers a variety of business areas for an in-depth picture of the business world.

Did any of these 10 reasons appeal to your situation? Well whatever your reason for getting an MBA may be, the bottom line is that an MBA will teach you a lot about business in response to the challenges of today's fast paced and increasingly complex global business environment. As much as it is a hefty investment on your part, it could open doors of opportunities that were closed to you before. Good luck!

Ugh, is a memorable day to do something but yet, I done nothing. :(

Do you remember you said if Shiao Ping and I ffk you, we will treat you, so you failed to register = ffk, thus you need to treat us back. I don't care *evil laugh*
