Chakra @ Mumbai

My very short stay in Bombay! We were zonked out as Indian pax can get a little demanding at times...so we skipped the whole sight seeing thing...so we only went for dinner!
Ever tried authentic Indian food? 
It's to die for! Only in India! 
So peepo if u ever wind up in Bombay for work...
I recommend you to eat at chakra! 
The place is like an expensive fine dine restaurant but trust me it's damn cheap!
And it's Delicious as always <3
We always eat there as it is close to our hotel! 
There's another place call the Persian darbar but it's not as good as before..disappointed!
So here's a sneak peek on what we had the other day!


Murgh tandoori rocks! 
After this you will never eat tandoori in kl :p 


BeLow is the awesome murgh Briyani! 
Just so you know, the portions in India is huge!!! 
A one person portion can be eaten by 3 adult Malaysian!
It's so flavorful and it's not dry..
Somehow some places that sells briyani, I tend to find it dry...the chicken as well..
But here... It's damn nice! Moist not over cooked! 


We ordered paneer tikka masala ...
Paneer is a kind of curd cheese!
It tastes a little sourish but when eaten with the pickle acar...it's the bomb!

We ordered garlic naan too! 
My fav!! 
Gosh! The aroma of the garlic is so strong you can smell it a mile away!
It's so good so moist! Unlike in kl where it just turns your Makan mood off!
This is like wowww!!
And it's crispy too...oh gosh I'm craving for it again!

Then we ordered the lamb kebab..my first time trying...
I was thinking that the kebab was like a wrap? 
Malaysian style comes with a wrap..but this came just the meat..
Something new! There wasn't the foul lamb smell...it was juicy n good! 
Simple and well seasoned!


So that's all we ordered...
Here's my companion for the day! My cute set crew!
I'm the rose among the thorns haha..
Oh ya! One more thing don't forget to try their drink call mosumbi!
It's actually limau ais and u can get it anywhere by the road side..
But advisable not to la,,,I bet you heard about the water in India...so if u don't wanna spend your entire day in the toilet then don't drink from the streets! But from a decent place like chakra, do give it a try! 
Refreshing especially at a hot place like Bombay!

Okay...signing off now! Till the next blog, see you!

Kuching seafood adventure!

Hey guys! 
Sry for the late update..was really busy with work and the celebrations etc..
So this was my trip to Kuching at Muara tebas! 
Thanks to an awesome leading stewardess Nina and her friend sabariman for bringing us around.
Another thumbs up for an awesome Makan set! 
Hardly get a chance like this and when u do..pls get your ass up and go! 
You can sleep anytime later and stare at 4 walls when you're back to kl! 

So here goes! 
We arrived just in time for dinner on the first day..
And of course, the nearest place for seafood around Hilton hotel would be...
TOPSPOT! 
Duh~ where else?
The place where crew suka lepak! 
So 5 of us charged up the stairs n head right up to Ling Long seafood booth just nearby the entrance.
Trying something different rather then always eating at the bukit mata stall no.35 (if nt mistaken)
And apparently...it turns out to be a total thumbs up!! 
So much better thn the stall no.35!  
So we ordered 
-sweet n sour crabs(cravings satisfied)
-curry bamboo lala 
-fried squid 
-nestum prawns 
-midin belacan (only in Sarawak)

The crab was delicious! Hands down the awesome tasting bamboo lala! Who'd knew bamboo lala could go so well with curry..usually i had the ones cooked with dried chili.
The nestum(cornflakes) prawns are juicy n crispy! Yums..and so is the fried squid!
The fried squid at no.35 is chewy n rubbery whereas this stall was crispy! Prawns are big too! 
Definitely eating at this shop the next time :) 
*satisfied*


The next day we went for an early morning flight schedule n came back around noon.
Then nina's friend came over to pick us up to Muara tebas 
Upon arrival he was confused on which shop it was tht was famous etc. so we went in the first shop which was the wrong one! XP 
Too bad we made orders already..sabariman's friends were next door eating seafood n we r stuck in the not so nice shop to eat D:
The food there was so so..the only thing good was the hand size oyster!
My first time eating n seeing an oyster that BIG! 

The meal was so unsatisfying so we randomly went for round 2! 
Next door after the bill was paid! Woohoo! 
Best tasting crab!!! 
Sabariman's friend treated us the crabs there... It was so good! 
Hehe and it was on the house..which makes it better! XD tq lovely peeps for the treat! 

And later on a few of us just chilled in the coffee shop in Hilton hotel..
When the dark skies appeared..the banana cheese are calling for us!
Drove somewhere near merdeka square...its in the housing area
And suddenly popped out a cozy house cafe..
I guess it's the place where locals chill...its called "Riuk Kuring"
(Google for the address if u are interested to try )
Sounds familiar anyone? 
Anyways we all wanted to try everything!! 
*greedy smile*
So we ordered all 3 flavours which was original, chocolate and milo!
You can request the waiter to seperate the milo cs it sticks to the cheese and it'll just be a blob of chocolate powder sticking on the cheese...(refer to the pics) 
so I recommend you to seperate it :)
Damn those bananas tasted like heaven! 
So we ordered more plates of this sinful dessert! *yums*


Teehee! Later we headed straight back to sleep! 
Another long day ahead the next day plus early wake up call 
=_=
So that marks the end of this post!! 
Goonaiiit peepo!




A walk to chatuchak market

Heard about chatuchak market in Bangkok for a gazillion times but never really been there...
So on my short stay in Bangkok, finally I decided to check it out!
To my amazement..this place was huge!! 
You literally can find anything here..the place is well organized too..so you don't need to worry of getting lost..
All you gotta do is get a map from the info counter at the main entrance! 
*there are more then one entrance.. Do get the right one * 
They organized the place in a way where the pottery, arts and crafts are in a section..
And clothes are in another, 
Souvenirs, massage, etc. it's all here! 
Not to mention Thai street snacks *shrieks*
XD
It's an all in one place to hangout during the weekends! 
Don't worry it closes pretty late as well.. So you can blow out your pockets here the entire day 

So I came out of the train station and walked through a park...out of the park entrance, there were many stalls selling the locals delicacy from noodles to bbq squid etc.
*stomach grumbles *
But of course! Keep calm Mel...keep calm! 
There were oceans of people..quite squeezy when you get to the small walkways 
So through the entrance and in we go! 

This place is massive! Got so excited exploring every little inch of this place and without realizing it's starting to get dark :( 
So we got crazy shopping clothes which is super cheap!! Cheaper then platinum mall in my opinion!
Bought many dresses for like 100bht each! 
So I was a happy kiddo! <3
Anyways, how can we forget the food when we step into Thailand! 
Of course not duh!
So for the starts I had my favorite coconut ice cream! 
Anything with coconut makes me go cray cray! :p 
Selfie of course a must have!


                                                          

Then i tried this squid with my favorite green chili and below is just cabbage..
It's super spicy I super love it!! 
The spicier the better!! That's the spirit! Yums! 
Dying to have it again! 

So here's my companion of the day!! 
He's a very nice guy..and hey!! He shop more then me haha! 
Meet Cassidy! 


For dinner..after a long walk we were drained out..so we simply picked a stall in the market..
It wasn't what I expected honestly..
I mean we expected since it was the road side so the locals were the chef and we were expecting delicious food and especially the tom yum! But to my disappointment , it sucks bad...
Even the road side Tom yum in Kl taste way better!!
And it wasn't exactly cheap? What a rip off! 
It tastes like ajinomoto with chilly and there wasn't much seafood in it..mostly cabbage..it was horrible I can't even finish it..
I guess it's mostly for the foreigners to try...so sad to think they can't truly taste the delicious tomyum!
So peeps! Choose your shop wisely! Not everywhere in the streets are as delicious as it seems! 
                                       

So after the unsatisfying meal,
We continue our walk..and passed by a cart selling bugs!! 
Yums! I tried crickets before back in Kl...my bestie, Shanel's mom brought some fresh crickets back from hatyai! She cooked it with soy sauce and it was scrumptious! 
Scared to eat at first..but after the first bite..you really just can't stop! 
More like French fries only scary looking!
So this time I tried the wombs and grasshoppers!
Yummy yummy...the wombs taste way better! Love it! 
The grasshoppers aren't as nice cause u get bored eating so many of it..it feels quite yucky after awhile..

                                    

After that it was quite late and we needed to get up early the next day..
So we headed back to our hotel..
                                        
Tadah! I didn't mention I got a tattoO? 
It was cheap so hey..why not right? Haha 
It was done at the sides of my rib cage...


I ordered room service later on cause I was still hungry..
Ugh...thinking about the horrible tasting tomyum really spoilt my appetite there :( 
I ordered pad Thai! It was so good! Their tomyum was to die for! 
Guys who are staying at Novotel Bangkok should try room service! It's wonderful! And you don't even need to go out! Thumbs up to the chefs!! 

So this marked the end of my short stay in Bangkok...
And another adventure awaits!
Till then, goodnight peeps!

Magnum cafe @ midvalley

Hey guys! 
So today since I'm off from work I got the entire day to waste..
I was reading 50 shades of grey until my iPad died...hmmm...
So I decided to hang around the nearest most convenient mall to me, midvalley! 
Oh gosh I think I'm there almost every week! Lol!
Once arrived I settled some bills and went for a movie! Hehe 
It's been ages since I watched a movie! Bought my ticket for Big hero 6! 
And there goes my phone vibrating away! "Vrr..vrr..vrr..."
"Hello?" Surprised.
"Hoi, so lonely watching movie alone?? Haha I know you're buying tickets for the show...you're standing behind the fat uncle in beige shirt right?!" 
*omg!* (stares around puzzled)
"Where the hell are you?? Haha stalk me arr??"
So who's the one behind the call? It's poh ying!!
Gosh! It's been like a million years since I seen her!
As usual beside her is her retarded boyfriend haha they were sitting all the way up there in mid!
It's funny cause later we realized we're watching the same movie same time! 
Small world huh? XD 

So after the movie we did some catching up at the magnum cafe! 
Recently overpopulated newly opened cafe which specializes in magnum ice creams n desserts..
Apparently you customize your ice cream which ever way you want with many kinds of toppings of your hearts desire ;) Yums? We'll see about that! 
We didn't line up as long as people said they did? (2hrs apparently)
I guess cause it was a weekday..
Anyways we got our seats in a jiffy and the interior of the cafe was comfy and fancy..
Not bad really.. For an ice cream shop...
So we settled down and ordered our food..
I ordered some hot food as I was starving! Didn't have any meals other thn popcorn hehe
So I got the fritto miisto (fried onion rings, shishamo fish, squid, shrimps with mustard sauce)
And we shared the desserts! 2 make my magnums and a Magnum Triffle! 


Tadah!! The beautiful lady posing for the camera! 
Free marketing haha..save cost on that magnum!
She was Customizing her ice cream..
Her ice cream! 
Forgive me for poor quality photos...will be getting a camera soon ;)

This is the magnum Triffle... It costs about rm25 for this.
And what can I say? 
It's not bad..creative and something different from the everyday desserts
It has some sugar biscuits at the bottom covered with what I think is yogurt and chocolate..some strawberries and of course..how can we miss the magnum lol..
Taste wise..both of them didn't like it but I think the taste was okay for me..some sweetness + sourness mixed together..
I'll rate it a 6/10 for my likings..it was a little too sweet tho..


This was the fritto miisto! Just some finger bites to fill my stomach!
This I'll rate it a 5/10
The taste is just ordinary fried food..nothing special..it's crispy no doubt..
But nothing fantastic about it..sauce is just mustard..so it's not really worth paying rm19 for this but just for the sake of my grumbling stomach! 

Overall the service was great..attentive waiters..each table are given a jar of water and it is replaced by the waiters frequently..it's really good service..I guess you pay for what you get! Haha

Anyways to conclude this place is somewhere I rather just come once and never back..
To me price wise is a bit over the top..but I guess I could be back for the customize ice cream once in a blue moon xD it costs around rm9.90 per stick. 
This is just my personal preference and well I believe everyone has their own saying in this..
Some might like it and some might not! So yeah..go ahead and make your way there to give it a try ;) 
Oh yeah..it was really good to be able to catch up with the darling! 
Hope to hang with you soon babe! 

Then later in the evening..I had sushi tei for dinner!
It's a birthday treat to a special bro of mine! 
Birthday shoutout to you bro! Hope you enjoyed the dinner xD haha

Okay..time for me to wave goodbye! Ciao peeps!

Finally out of the crib..special msg to a sweet batchmate! Imy!

Finally June!

Moved and feeling happy..
All smooth and steady...don't feel lonely anymore!
Say Welcome back to le boyfie!
Now sweet as hell unless he ddly =_=

Anyways...just wanted to shoutout a small thought in my heart..
To the lovely Batchmate and sweetheart I never once forget u ..u will always be my friend regardless of how u think of me now...

Thanks to that devil bitch in disguise.. who u look up to..can't blame u though..just that everyone blames themselves for asking her to shift in with u last time.. I really feel so sorry for u n hope the old u can come back!

I can't blame u for following her footsteps.. maybe u got lost somewhere in the midst of living with that wretch! but seriously I pray that one day u will awaken and see her true colours and realised that you are becoming like a clone of that witch! Please awaken already.. I really missed u...
I really hope u won't become like that over sensitive self praising bimbo who talks like an Aunty and thoughts she's the best in everything padahal just a sore brainless bitch that thinks her pretty face and cheapskate attitude can bring her somewhere..don't please don't!
I really treat u as a friend but since u are walking under her shadows now I cant exactly be straightforward as u will eventually fight back for that bimbo that only uses ppl.. U wont listen! have u ever wondered Why she sticks to u? Cause you're the only person that amazingly can stand her and doesn't talk back to her ...isn't it obvious enough that she uses ppl.. pls don't be like her.. don't tell me bullshit that she's lonely or what shit.. That's plain bolox!

Have u wondered Why every one of our Batchmate don't like her? We're not against u but seriously everyone dislikes her attitude.. n you're becoming like her.. it's really sad...the first day I met u.. u weren't anything like that..u were so sweet and jolly! Now you're just plain miserable, sadly almost a bimbo and oppressed.. Why did u Change? =_= after so many months of talking and bonding tgt I feel disappointed u don't understand me.. even the stupidest lie I made just to move out u can believe? If that bitch believes I'm not surprised...she's pure bimbo..but u? Seriously u will fall for a stupid excuse I made? Do u think I will let go my temper to my friends.. u know I don't do all those things =_= do u think Because of my bf n me argue I will let it out on u guys? Think common sense pls? We're not 5years old anymore.. this made me so disappointed in you..u can't even tell that was a lie =_= don't be a dumbass like that bitch please? then u go all black face against me..I don't understand Why u will look up to her n trust her so much... haih... AWAKE ALREADY! gosh!

Anyways just to clarify, I have ntg against you..and I'll patiently wait n hope u will return someday..u will always be my friend! :) I will also pray one day karma will bite that bitches ass until she cries so hard and no one gives a shit! N that she'll learn her lessons!

Family is the greatest gift in life

It's been awhile ei?
travelling everywhere is indeed a joyful ride.. nevertheless there are times u just wanna breakdown..

Why?
the people you're with...
They just make you wanna run away back to home..the only place I will ever feel comfortable in.. with parents care and Love...

Sadly, I only appreciate it when I moved out..during the immature phase.. there was a thought.. "How I wish I can move out!" . But now all I miss is my home..my family...feel sorry I can't even make it home for any of their birthdays..even mother's day I'm all alone here in kuching.. all u will ever feel is loneliness!
In addition, with the rough day I had with housemates.. really makes me wanna stay home so badly..going home after work everyday now is like going to an awkward place..it doesn't feel homely anymore after the small argument.. I guess it's just me..I usually feel awkward after arguing with someone..can't really get along after that..Taurus is forever stubborn!
Damn, I hate that bitch as well...ever since the so call misunderstanding we had during training due to her sensitivity, I never liked her anymore..I guess time reveals ones true colours.. she's not the person I imagine she is..and now every move and saliva she spits out annoys me to the Max!
Sadly she doesn't realise Why she's so damn lonely all the time...bitch wake up pls? Cant u see the way u speak stinks?! If u want to shoot someone please make sure you're 100% perfect! Can't even speak proper English then u come with all your stupid accusations cause u can't understand my simple status.. u claim that I treat u guys like stupid ppl? Well lady, if u don't understand then don't make a big fuss on things n again pretend like u are the prettiest and greatest...bitch please! After u remove your makeup you just look like every other ordinary girl...so what if u look gorgeous after u doll up? So what if u USED to be a model? Do I look like I give a damn? no I don't! I said I feel like a refugee sitting by the road side...did I say it's u guys who made me a refugee? Eh please brush up on your English before u bitch around...u are just embarrassing yourself! sorry to say...I have never treated u as my friend...my business Why should I tell u? Mind your own business can? Only know how to gossip, bitch and act smart u nosy eejit!

Haih... nvm.. finally all of this is out of my chest...thanks bloggie! I know most of my posts are always complaints and anger towards some eejit.. well sorry to say..this is the only place I have to let out my feelings with a little much more privacy.. don't read it..I don't care ;)
Something like a public diary to me..

Lately thinking too much...this really kills me! Gahh! Well now all I wanna do is go back to KL.. and then go back to my real home where all the people there loves me..

Oh yeah...rmb I was depressed for over 6 months? yeah the breakup.. and I gt mad because of that..guess what? We're back and going steady! One month passed...I wonder how long more we will be able to be strong and keep going...hope there won't be anymore obstacles between us..may it be a smooth and steady ride like how it is now! Please don't let our Love die out in the flames <3 Love him to the Max!! the only darling that understands me inside out! 

ANYWAYS, Proficiency test is coming in few days time...wish me luck guys! XD and I'll see u soon my dear blog!  Goodnight & sweet dreams!

Deja vu

Again problems like this arose...
The thing that kills me most in the inside..
The thing that brings out my weakest point in me...
The most sensitive issue that tears me apart...
It feels like deja vu..

But I keep telling myself.. girl, you gotta be strong..face it with guts and no tears...don't let this happen again...don't get yourself smothered into shit like this...

So here am I to the only place I can let out my feelings...it feels like I'm telling someone...a Listener...my blog...

Why does men like to lie? Why do they only find me for one reason? Is there a word FUCK ME on my forehead? Why?
can anyone answer me?

I'm getting tired of hearing all these lies and phoney sweet talks just to get me laid... I really hope that none of these people ever stumble on me again...which I know clearly It's impossible...I haven't even go onboard yet...n I'm already running into people like this...what more when work starts...can someone save me from all this shadows of lies and phoney people? I'm tired...I don't know when will I rip apart..I need help...is there anyone out there who can save me? T.T

I just want a simple relationship...
How is it that I can't meet anyone as pure as an angel, as true as a bible? I hate complications...it hurts...everytime I see couples so sweet together...you know how envious I am? To those couples out there..please...cherish and appreciate the man next to you...It's not easy to find a true heart nowadays..

Makes me wanna turn the time back to when everything is so simple and naive.. when there's people around me that has no intentions and appears purely infront of me...

And when I look back to my first ever relationship... though it ended unpleasant, but I kinda miss the sweet moments I have with you...I kinda miss it when there's someone always there for me.. to love me and support me...to accompany me shopping and cook meals for me when I'm hungry...and when u started chatting with me again...it was an awkward feeling...but at least we're friends now...It's really Sad.. what happened to us...just Sad...

And after an experience with you and all the other previous guys...I realised...the men I'm looking at now are wayy much scarier.. so scary with very ugly intentions...It's so scary to face it all alone...can someone just lend me a hand n save me from this terrible nightmare...I'm pleading... please... one day...let me bump into this person...whoever he may be..  to pull me  away from this terrible nightmare... How much more shit must I go through to find my one and only?! I'm suffocating..

Stop lying infront of my face...It hurts tremendously to see the guy you had hopes with..the one I thought could revive me..to suddenly lie infront of my face and act as If Nothing is wrong...making up more shitty stories to cover up...It's pointless...do you really think I'm stupid? I know What's going on...I know what u told others...I know..so stop asking me why I'm so cold to you...If u didn't do anything wrong u won't be scared...don't bullshit! My level of tolerance is limited...

T.T

Say something..I'm giving up on you..
I'm swallowing my pride..
You're the one I love.. but I'm gonna say goodbye..
