I Heart Weekends !!!

Nothing feels better than knowing 2ml's holiday !!!

Even if it means a short one !!! Buahahaha 。。。

Heart the weather today, and I thought my gastric from
late last night would have given me a really 'valid' reason to
skip class today & slept through the whole lovely morning.
But too bad, the pain went off so soon I woke up feeling
better than any other morning !!! Bah 。。。

Went to play volleyball with Yi Wen, Pres & their friends
@ George Burnett Leisure Hall near Erica in the afternoon !!!
I totally enjoyed it, and knowing that I still know how to serve
ball gave me much of a relief !!! At least my whole primary
school years of playing for the school wasn't really wasted
anyway. Though I still pretty sucked at all the other
techniques, I practically just did not try to hit
any ball other than serving it !!!
Pathetic, right?

I know I sound pretty crazy, but
am liking the bruises !!! At least it reminds
me that am still a sporting person !!!
Not a lazy one !!! Hahaha 。。。

So volleyball is definitely on
my "to-do's list" every Friday !!!
It'll be whole lotsa fun with these people !!!

Oh yea, did a pretty stupid thing after the game.
I was thinking of walking back to my flat, but I randomly
hailed a bus without looking at the bus no. cus I was suddenly
feeling a lil' lazy !!! Who knows I missed the stop and ended up @
Curtin Bus Station !!! Omg !!! From what was supposedly only
a 10 mins walk home turned out to be more than 30 mins
in the end !!! So very very bekcek-nyer !!!

So, I went to Domino's & bought myself
a really really nice Choc Lava Cake to reward
me being so 'hardworking' today !!!

Nice kan?

There'll definitely be a 2nd time !!!

Had fish & 'random seafood' porridge tonight
as dinner, cooked by myself !!! I started to feel that I
cook better porridge than rice !!! Maybe because that my
rice always still end up being porridge anyway !!!
Hehehe 。。。

Currently:

Webcaming with Habibi !!!

Listening:

She Sees Through Her Reflection

I looked into the mirror, closely,
feeling amazed at how much I've grown up to
becoming who I am now.

Maybe I've been longing for growing up too much I miss cuddling this
sweet child in me. I miss being myself, I miss forgetting about
the world, and I miss everything I couldn't possibly have
with me now. But maybe I just need one thing
to keep me going, and that's you.

Random things I did in Perth:

Yewp !!! 'Shop til' I DROP !!!'
So true !!! Will I ever grow sick of shopping here ???
The answer: NO !!! Buahahaha ...

Found Java Juice better than Boost !!!

Photoshoot @ Perth City (1)

Yesterday was fun !!!
Fiona & Meng brought us to Northbridge for Dim Sum
after their Sunday service and we had A LOT for breakfast !!!

One thing I notice about Dim Sum here is that,
the range is very different from those I had in Miri.
I was extremely surprised they have chili mussels
as part of Dim Sum, in the morning too !!!


Finally get to meet Jessica for the first time after so long !!!
The last time I saw her was probably during her primary school
graduation !!! Like her writings & her shots, she is a very special girl,
kinda like the girl next door, if I could find any words better to describe
her. She wanted to do a shot that day with 'Broken Dolls in the City'
as her theme. When Fiona first told me about the shot, I wasn't sure if I can
pull it off well, cause 'cool/innocent/cute' was never my kinda thing. But,
I tot it was great to try something new, challenge myself, and somemore
it was really cool to do shots in the city, busy with cars and people.
I guess I'll never do that in Miri, cause I might bump into
someone I know & it would be pretty awkward ...

We went to Meng's house after that
for change and make-up.

Qing got the Twiggy look.
She pulled off broken doll look very well !!!

Fiona got the exotic Asian Kung-Fu girl look.
Her face was really sharp on pictures !!!
Love 'em very very much !!!

As for me, Jez opted for the 60's look.
I couldn't do much of a doll, but am so happy
I managed to find myself some angles or styles
that I can pull off better, like emo or sweet shots,
2 total extremes of each other tho, hehehe...

Jez did her own make-up.
Super pro lar really, this girl !!!
We stopped by a pretty vintage place in town,
when we were looking for a good spot for the shots.
And you noe, we omos find ourselves guilty for trespassing
private property and kena halau-ed by the security guard !!!
This is definitely something that 4 of us will remember for a
lifetime !!! But the whole photoshoot thing was really really
fun !!! Jessica has an eye for everything, her shots were
beautiful and they were unique for each 3 of us as she
managed to distinguish our personalities thru her
every shots !!! You should see more of her
shots on her deviantart here.

Here are some of the shots we took
yesterday !!! Am so in love with all of 'em !!!

Oh yay,
today is Jez's birthday too !!!
Happy birthday, girl !!! May all your wishes
come true and it's really fun knowing you !!!
Keep your lovely smile going on !!!

Too Much Cakes, Am Overdosed

The past few days of my life have
been too much about sugar & cakes 。。。

I found my favourite cake @ Secret Recipe !!!
Thanks to Fang for the recommendation !!!


And few mins ago, I just finished eating the most
wonderful Carrot Cake in the whole wide world !!!
(okay, I was exaggerating but it was really that good !!! no jokes !!!)

Homemade by my aunt !!! She is really good in everything !!!
From sewing to baking, and super nice !!! She's always
my saviour when it comes to birthday planning
and she's my personal baking tutor !!!

Bought home a piece of 'Fruit Gateau'
from The Chatterbox, Mega Hotel that day !!!
It was really nice, too !!! Very refreshing but too bad,
I din get to snap, I'll make sure I do next time around yay !!!
Am sure all these sudden sugar addictions were for some really
good reason !!! They work so well soothing my pressure !!!
Gonna need 'em tru finals til mid of November now !!!
Good luck and all the best, my frens !!!

Til then,

take care ya'll.

The Black Apple

Doesn't sound familiar? Hahaha 。。。

Cause it's NEW, new in town !!!
Introducing 'The Black Apple ~ 黑 苹 果' !!!

A very "extra-miri-ordinary" cafe, it almost
looks a little mislocated when situating somewhere
near the busy Krokop Market, just next to the
ever famous '正 记 Chicken Rice' !!!

I had to use the word 'extra-miri-ordinary',
cause I really couldn't find anything close to it
anymore !!! You'll get how I feel the minute you saw
that amazing place !!! And I thought I can only
recall the days at Padungan Street,
Kuching ever since !!!

Well from the cafe's outlook & interior design,
it's really impressive & outstanding. But I felt that the
spaces around the interior is less cosy, well unless if you're thr
for an afternoon tea or morning breaks or light supper, then that's
another story !!! Cause, when I was there yesterday afternoon
during lunch, I can hardly move around, the place was too
crowded !!! I guessed now at this period of time, the
population of Miri will either be in Secret Recipe
or here at 'The Black Apple' !!! The people are
seriously flooding these new places !!!

Gotta love this old vintage clock
at the corner of the wall !!!

Admiring the rest of the details
We weren't there for the foods, we're just too excited
to explore this new beautiful cafe in town !!! We
ordered for drinks only since we were still full
after eating out at 壹 茶 屋 before that.

Ning's Ribena Sprite
I ordered for 3 layers tea, it doesn't taste as
good as 鸿 运's, am not sure about the others.

And yea, must owes remember yo take photo one,
whenever visitting a new shop !!! Can forget pay,
but cannot forget take photos ler !!!

Lik & Ning
I love this picture of 'em !!!

I really enjoy taking pictures for the both of them !!!
Cause no matter how they pose, they still
look so sweet together !!!
