Meet ups

I think I made a HUGE mistake...
of not taking more photos!



This short post serves as a memory checkpoint. 
I'm fortunate to be able to meet up with some of my friends this Raya holidays.
And I'm really glad to see each and everyone of them.
I really hope I gotto take more photos next time.
I am thankful that I have such wonderful family and friends around me. 
Special thanks to these two crazy peeps who are always game for spontaneous trips! 

Us @ Summit Hotel 

Given the chance, I would hug each and everyone of you that I've met and tell you that you are really awesome. 

To you who are reading this right now, 
Wendy misses you. 

Let's definitely meet again soon. 
Peace & Love

Ending 2015 with a bang - Langkawi 4D3N Trip

Great friends, great scenery, great trip!
One of the highlights of my year is this trip to Langkawi. 
It was a pretty spontaneous trip, I'm very happy to share this wonderful memories with these bunch of crazy pepo. 
:heart:

Pre-Langkawi 

PY had a great idea to bake some cookies for everyone as a Christmas present.
Being the great chef we are (we totally are), this is what happened that day.


 

It's something!

Langkawi Trip - Day 1

We went there by driving directly into Langkawi. our car was ferried by LangkawiAuto.
It was a very nice experience no less. The ferry provided a nice and comfortable passenger deck too!




Upon reaching


Then we checked into our humble accommodation @ Shaka Langkawi. It was a decent place, but would be nicer if there's aircon. There's a delicious Nasi Kukus right beside the Roomah Shaka, which was a major plus point! Then we went about and jalan around the streets of Cenang Beach.





Sunset @ Yellow cafe.

Awesome food, Awesome beer, Awesome scene...
And that's how our first day went.

Langkawi Trip - Day 2

Twas the day we pick up TPY from the airport.
BUTT! Their flight was delayed, we had waaaaay too much time on our hands to kill.
Hence, we explored Langkawi!
Beer / cider in our hands, we started off our journey!

Breakfast @ Red Tomato Restaurant

Road Trip!



Sun & Beach = Paradise


We found this hidden treasure of a nice a peaceful beach near to the edge of Langkawi OTW to Mount Raya.
James made us vowed to go back for a second visit...
Sadly, that visit was never made.
We went to Kuah Town for lunch and bought these cool hats!

Yey!

Anyways, we then went to Mount Raya and Makam Mahsuri to kill time.




Then, it's time to get TPY
Armored and prepared, we were soooo ready to receive them @ Langkawi International Airport...
Only to found out that their plane got delayed (again). 

Armored and prepared



We almost didn't make it to the sunset @ Cenang, hence The Amazing Race Langkawi happened!
Seriously tho, sorry for the shaky video... Heh...

Langkawi Trip - Day 3

Rise and shine! It was not a pwetty day cause some of us are still pretty hang over from the Christmas countdown party yesterday night. 
We had the bestest time burying each other's legs in the sand and dancing around the beach half drunk. 
BUTT, ready we are, to conquer the islands of Langkawi!
Hopped on a boat and off to Island Hopping we go!






We had a great time and after that, we took a rest, got some food in our tummy and bought souvenirs. 
Fortunately, it was a breeze going back the next day.
Our car was not held up by the Custom check and we went back home tired and happy. 

Thanks guys for the awesome adventure. 
Let's go somewhere else next! 
Hopefully, I got time to write another blog post for my previous Cameron trip too! 


2016 started off with me clearing off my previous videos and photos. 
Lots of editing and cleaning to be done... 
See ya soon pepo!

My Braces Journey - Part 2

25 Nov 2015 - 7pm

The day before I got my braces, I was surprisingly calm (well, the few days prior to this in which I'm reading profusely / panicky about how to handle the first day of getting braces doesn't really count :P)
So I proposed to my friends that we had a night off before I say goodbye to good food temporarily. 
Bachelor party for my crooked teeth before they got Tied Down... AmIRightPeople??? 
(heh, excuse the lame pun)
I have awesome friends... 
They agreed to it without a second thought! 
(Awww, I love you guys)

Love you pepo! 
Even though you guys are a bunch of weirdos :P

My food itinerary goes something like this:
Chocolate Mousse Cake @ Dolce Dessert House
Al-Cabonara Linguine @ Soul Cafe
Hokkien Mee @ Green House Hokkien Mee Burmah Road

In which they are finished in a short span of 3 hours. 
BEST. DAY. EVA!


So that's it!
Au Revoir Ms.Crooked!


 26 Nov 2015 - 9am

Woke up, brushed my teeth, took a bath, washed my hair... (why am I telling you guys all these)
Had a wholesome breakfast which consist of my mom's homemade roasted chicken wings along with Angel Hair pasta. (I'm in heaven)
Went to the orthodontist, aaaaaaaaand waited for my turn.
My mom had her filing done first, then I hopped on the dental chair that looks like the twisted man from The Saw would had so much fun there.
My orthodontist was patient and skillful, and loheng cause he likes to 'zhat' me... hahaha. 
I got Damon braces glued to my teeth, then a wire attached to those brackets. 
Took about 1 hour. 
It was relatively painless (except for that one time the orthodontist hissed and said "Aiya...." and that scared the wits out of me) and everything went quite well. 
I went home feeling well and prepared.....

Lenglui with braces


BUT, I was totally wrong. 
Days before, I prepared myself for the worst, gums infection. 
That happens when the metal brackets scraped the inner walls of your mouth. 
So I was wary enough to ask for dental wax from the orthodontist. (Feeling smart here)
Feeling like I've triumphed, I went home with a crooked and swollen smile. 
Only to realize, that's not the worst part,,,,

After I've got my braces fixed, I felt literally nothing, more like a foreign object on my teeth... 
After a few hours, these 'foreign objects' started to carry their weight... 
Not forgetting that constant pulling of the metal wire that literally Realigns your Jaw!
Towards the afternoon, I experienced a nagging headache... 
Well it went off after some rest. 
In the evening however, it felt kinda itchy! 
Hahahaha...
BTW, I am now on a soft diet, so I'm glad my friends and my mom prepared me for that. <3 div="">

So yea!
That's about it! 
A short update on my journey. 
Perhaps I'll come back when I experience something new.
Till next time lovely pepo!
