Nov/Dec 2010 Wishlist

Greetings,

Heya Hi.
I am back in KL. Home sweet home. How are things on your side? And for those in Malaysia, how was the long weekend?

I hope it is not too late to wish everyone a very Happy Diwali nal Valtukal. May you have a peace, harmony and wonderful year ahead.
***Ohh...the 'laddoo' made special for Diwali Day that we served on flight was damn good. Any idea where to get good laddoo in KL? Brickfield area or at Jalan Masjid India?

Anyway, I will upload the pics from my EuroTrip later in the upcoming entries (now I remember this is like a cliche where I keep telling readers that I will share the story and photos from my travels 'later' but realized that I never deliver :p).

But for now, let's check out these items.

Been dreaming about for the past few days. I woke up at night, thinking of these toys. How nice if they could become mine.

1-Leica M7 limited Edition Hermès

O Lord, I'm crying just to see how beautiful human has made this stuff. Look at the Orange color. It is so me!

It is not just a camera, it is a fashion statement.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!

And guess, how much is the damage? Close to 8500 Pound Sterling =\

But heck, if one's can afford Audemars Piguet and Richard Mille watch worth 30,000 Pound, why not for the camera?

But mind you, this Leica is a limited edition of 200 units only available worldwide and model ni dah lame. Came out year last year, so I believe model ni dah abes. As for me, memang la tak mampu. The price of the camera equals to my salary for one year! I simply cannot afford this brand. Even the small compact D-Lux 4 model.

But say I can buy this camera, it won't be for my daily usage, but more to future investment.

Oh money, please come to me.

2- Dr. Martens 8-eye leather boots

I know ramai yang akan buat mata when they read this. Boots ain't for me. And it won't be normal if I wear boots. So mat rempit. So mamat Oi and Punk.

Whatever it is, I must tell you that I fell for these boots!

Samalah dengan my hi-cut Converse. At the very beginning, I must admit that I did not feel comfy in hi-cut sneakers and even people around me had noticed that! But as time passed by, I started to feel alright! It is not that bad or rempit actually!

But this one is for sure. I'll get myself a pair of this anytime soon. The damage is USD120. More or less RM500.

You know, when you keep on dreaming and thinking of something, that means u just gotta have it.

But the problem is, aku nak pakai apa dengan boots ni heh? What goes well with the boots? For sure bukan dengan shorts yang short macam my wardrobe staple? Geez....tak kesah. Janji aku ade satu.

Gotta dash. Happy weekdays people.

Tschuess.

U know u love me,
xoxo

From Paris with Love

Bonjour people. From the city of lights, the city of love, the city of romance and that is Paris.

How are you?

Baby Berlin

Heya,

Have landed in Berlin safe and sound. For f*ck sake, just everything and everyone is gay here. Could prolly be gayer than Amsterdam!

So far Alhamdulillah, semuanya selamat.

Tschuess.

ps: who's the baby?

Achtung, DEUTSCLAND!

Greetings from Munich, Germany.

Finally, dapat jugak merasa visit negara yang I'm dying to see, the Deutschland. Alhamdulillah.

Just checked-in at the hotel. Going to Starbucks nearby to get my caffeine fix (no Starbucks in Roma though) and later to Maximillianstrasse to buy something from the Hard Rock Cafe.
Followed by a visit to the BMW museum.

Woof! They drive super sexy cars here.

Tschuess.

Allora Roma. Ciao Bello

Inside the Colosseum.

Greetings from Roma.

The weather is crazy. At one point it's so cold that you need the glove, at another point it's extremely insanely cold that you also need the head cover AND at another rare occasion, it's WARM that you would not need the jacket anymore.

But really, Rome is splendidly gorgeously beautiful. Old world charm city wide!

I am sipping a latte at a small but very cute coffee shop by the roadside now. Starbucks couldn't beat the local espressos. And everything is fckin expensive here, REALLY REALLY EXPENSIVE!

Ciao

Bye Bye Asia, Hello Europe!

Nah....it is not that I'm leaving for Europe for good. I am leaving KL for Europe tonight for my holiday! Yes, another holiday for this year. Woohooo.... it is my major holiday for year 2010 after those minor trips, to name a few--Phuket, Chiang Mai, Krabi, Bangkok, Langkawi and God-knows-where-else.

So basically, I'm done with packin and stuffs and now awaiting the cab to send me to the speed train station and voila, I will be one step closer to my holiday.

Will fly on MH0014 tonight bound for Rome. The journey will take approx. 13 bloody hours from Kuala Lumpur! Huh....tell me about it! Does anyone here enjoy sitting for that long period of time?! I don't think so, humans just got no choice! :p

But I won't be in Italy only. Will also visit some other cities in Europe! But first, these are my plans. Those that I'd been sketching on the note books TOP PLACES to visit during my holiday.

Spanish Steps, Roma

Brandenburg Gate, Berlin

Avenue des Champs Elysees, Paris

Can't wait for the latter!

Gotta dash....the cab driver is waiting downstairs.

See ya in 2 weeks time ;) And please wish me selamat pergi dan selamat pulang. I am traveling alone, fyi, for this 2 weeks holiday in Europe.

Eropah!!!! HERE I COME!

u know u love me,

Hello Holiday ;)

Was in OZ yesterday, now I am in Langkawi for a short holiday with my family. Beeeeeen loooong since my last trip to this island. The last time I was here was 5 years ago. I was with my Brit-ex at that time.

So, since my parents are coming along......haruslah my plans agak yang slow sikit. Nothing hyper. You know orang tua, jalan sikit dah penat.

But I sooo wanna go lepak makan2 at The Loaf, Telaga Harbour and take the cable car to the top of Gunung Machincang. My parents pon nak gak merasa lepak2... ;)

Anyway, you be good. Have a splendid week ahead.

U know u love me,

Malaysia Airlines to fly to Riyadh

Malaysia Airlines will commence flights to Riyadh, capital of Arab Saudi, effective 17 December 2010.

In conjunction with the launch of this new destination, the airline is offering promotional airfares to Riyadh with prices starting from RM1,200. There will be 3 weekly flights, departing Kuala Lumpur on Tuesday, Friday and Sunday at 8.05pm and arriving in Riyadh at 11.40pm.

Managing Director/ Chief Executive Officer, Tengku Dato’ Azmil Zahruddin said, “We are delighted to announce Riyadh as our third new destination for 2010, after Damman in Saudi and Bandung, Indonesia.

As a focal point for trade and burgeoning region for tourism, the Middle East is a key market for us. Likewise, the Arabs are very attracted to Malaysia as a vacation/ honeymoon destination and a potential trade partner.”

Riyadh is experiencing a development boom with new conglomerates and companies’ building headquarters in the city. It is also developing its tourism sector, offering visitors a myriad of options from safaris featuring camel markets, traditional souqs, home stay, horse riding and golf.

In the Middle East, Malaysia Airlines also connects to Dubai (7 times weekly), Beirut and Istanbul (3 times weekly) and Dammam (2 times weekly). It is also the official airline for Hajj and Umrah pilgrims.

Shopping Lagi ;)

I can never get enough of shopping. It is my fav sports now. I play this every time when I go out. lol

Just a small gift for myself for my bday this year (other than the Krabi and Bangkok trip).
**sadis pulak bunyi nye adiah bday beli sendiri.

U know u love me,
xoxo

Hasil Tangkapan....Lagi.

New place new catch, everyday is shopping day ;)

I'm Tired.

Been traveling for 2 weeks now. I started to feel so tired. Missing everyone back in KL, my home, my decent bed (despite the fact that I sleep on 5 star beds during my travels)...and certainly the food too!

Counting time to fly back to KL.

Ahlan Wa Sahlan..

......ilaa Dammam.

Just returned from Bangkok this afternoon, and now I'm packing stuffs again for my next travel. Flying off to Saudi Arabia tonight.

I'll see ya when I'm back.

U know u love me,
xoxo

ps: My trip to Krabi & Bangkok was m.i.n.d.b.l.o.w.i.n.g. Will tell more later. Remind me :p

Hasil Tangkapan

Tak banyak pon.....tapi bestnye shopping kat Bangkok. Dah la tengah sale, tourist dapat additonal 5% discount, boleh pulak claim VAT lagi....mmg triple the value of the purchase.

U know u love me,
xoxo

ps: Somebody stopped me on the street just now asking for direction. And I asked the fella back, do I look like local, really, koz I got that many times. And the fella said, "No, u look like Singaporean, not really like a Thai". ~Voila, u know that I'm not a local, then why bother asking me for directions?
Or what is just a lame pick up line?

Krabi, Day 1

Day 1--Krabi.

Wish you were here. All of you ;)

Krung Thep for BDay

Sawaa dee kaaap~~

By the time you read this, I am already on my way to the other side of the region, Bangkok. This time around, it won't be for work but for a little vacation, or should I say, a little 'self-paid' gift for myself for my birthday ;)

And this time, I won't be traveling alone, but with a company of 6 closest friends from uni. How exciting!! Gee....

But first, I will be flying to the capital of Thailand--Bangkok, and later catch a domestic flight down to Krabi, whilst the other 6 on a direct flight from KL this afternoon.
I could be taking direct flight like what my friends be doin later but the airfares for direct flight (on Low Cost Carrier) and a-transit-flight (on full service airline) are almost similar so I decided to take the 4-leg flights to my destination (KUL-BKK-KBV-BKK-KUL).

So we will meet up at the airport and head to the hotel together. Ouhh....the hotel that we booked online looks really amazing! It's a boutique hotel (so my type), with infinity pool down to the ocean and an open air bathroom in every room. Sexy, neh?

We don't really want to pen down our plans in Krabi but I believe it will be lots of parties, makan and more parties. 3 nights in Krabi, with friends, during my birthday.........can I just say this will be the Trip of the Year? lol.

And back from Krabi, I will have a stopover in Bangkok for another 3 more nights. It has been ages since I last visited the city, I'm sure there are plenty of new things that yet I have to discover.
Hola Bangkok, surprise me!

Wish you were next to me in the airplane now.

Lots of love,
xoxo

My Kind of Sunday

Breakfast or brunch consisting of:

A cup of low fat green tea latte (I wonder why latte is called as a 'low class' drink in Italy?), muffin/cereal/nasik lemak with extra sambal and hard-boiled egg, bukan telur goreng yang sangat nipis, and ciggie.
Pardon me, I really don't know how did I pick up this smoking habit.

But how often pon I can do this? :(

U know what I mean.

Marc Jacobs New EDTs

Wow, very sexy!

That was actually my first impression about the latest campaign by Marc Jacobs for his new perfumes--Bang.

To be honest, I haven't had a chance to visit the nearest perfume counter yet to take a sniff on Bang but I know I will like it, and I will get myself one soon. And boi, how I love the bottle!
It looks similar to the flask that I wanted to buy this afternoon!

Geez. Tak jadi beli flask tu pon sbb it is very small, way too smaller than my old Erik Magnussen flask (bukan dr segi ml/flask but the size of the flask itself). I like BIG things, really
;-)

And what a coincident that Bang is out in the market now. With a bottle resembling my (used to be) dream flask, it is simply a must thing to buy.

Now see the nude Marc ;)

Arghhh.....the excitement doesn't finish there. Now presenting another 3 new EDTs.

Biscotti, Apple and Pomegranate body splash.

Well, they are not really body splash a-la Victoria Secret's packed in those flimsy plastic bottles that you can buy quite cheap in town, but those are also new EDTs.

I personally call it body splash 'coz they only have in 300ml bottle. WHAT? 300ml? That's a lot!
Man, I yang heavy user of perfume ni pon pakai 100ml bertahun baru habis. So yeah, kalau dah 300ml.....buat ala2 body splash sudah.

I have tried all. Initially I thought Biscotti would suits men, but nah....I prefer the Apple more.

Pon nak kene beli jugak nanti ;)

Price check: RM 304/bottle.
Takpe, end of the month I ada Dubai, I will get my Bang and Apple from there. Cheaper in Dubai than in KL :)
Ada sesiapa yang nak kirim?

U know u love me,
xoxo

Phenomenal

Greetings,

I was video-hopping on youtube the other day. And see what I found.

And this is the other side view of the same show.

How outrageous is that! And I started to search more flash mob on youtube. And voila~ I didn't know it is the in thing now, I mean maybe not really in KL (yet) but at some other part of the world. From Chicago down to Tokyo to Singapore! But of course la yang KL punye menggelabah siket kan.

But anyway, to tell the truth, I was hoping I know how to dance and be one of the participants in the dance event, mane2 pon takpe. LOL

For more info, search "flash mob" online.

U know u love me,
xoxo
