holidays!!

BOOYAH!! kk, i know ive been M.I.A but im M.I.A no more...at least for awhile..hehe..
My 3 weeks holiday is nearly ending.. sho shad:( I dont think i can hold a pen properly anymore..hehe..

Neways, during the hols, i played alot of Plants Vs Zombies. I seriously think this game is cute, cool sound effects, creative, fun and really needs strategy.. Thanks to ivan for this game man!! hehe.. I know alot of people at college are hooked to this game too..hehe.. But its seriously fun. Give it a try!!


Convinced my dad to try one round.. He didnt like it.. BAH!!

Below are just some pics taken during the hols.. I'm too lazy to elaborate.. I think there are more pictures of food..:D

Porridge steamboat at Farmland Restaurant, Johor.. NICE!! I read that they have an outlet at Jalan Pudu in KL. -Must find out how to get there-hehe..

Some giant pisang i came across on the highway.. Its probably one whole meal already with one pisang..LOL..

Biggest Pineapple Tart that got into Msian Book of Records at Jonker Street, Malacca..

Satay Celup in Malacca.. Not bad but the gravy was way to oily..

Btw, ate the Chicken Rice Balls at A Famosa Restaurant.. OMG!!! it seriously sucks.. I dunno whats the big deal and whats with the crowd there..??


On New Years day, 1-1-2010, parents and I together with some family friends headed down to Haadyai, Thailand. It was my first time there cuz the only place ive been in Thailand before that was the Bangkok International Airport..hehe..

Lydia and me at the backseat.. This cute little girl is seriously talkative... Too bad i dont understand her yapping cuz it was either in Mandarin or her own baby talk.. I was the best listener she ever had...LOL..

This was at Lee Gardens supermarket.. So funny right how they sell their things.. Short stools like above are provided so shoppers can sit and browse at things..

Then we went to have ice cream at Swensens.. YUMM!!! and so much cheaper compared to Malaysia.. An item which i think in Msia would cost RM 14-16.90 only cost 89 Bahts (RM 8.90) in Thailand..-awesome-
And btw, i really liked the glasses they used to serve plain water. Cool right? And i did something really bad which ive never done in my life.. Well, practically it wasnt me but.....
What a shame, i study about this issue in Hospitality and Tourism Environment subject and lookie lookie... LOL.. If ur blur reading this part, i'll leave it just at that.. hehe..

Then next was the main destination, Klong-Hae floating market..

And there was like soooooooooooooooooooooooo many people there.. u really had to squeeze ur way through..

Basically, its a place to just makan all sorts of Thai snacks and their sold off sampans.. hence the name, "floating" market.. Interesting, really...
And the best part, EVERY ITEM there cost RM 2 (20 Bahts).. And for that amount, their quantity wasnt bad at all!!




My only greatest fear, with so many people crowding around u, i was so scared my handbag or orst still ME, fell into the river..LOL.. Cuz the platform for the tourist to walk is narrow and made out of planks of wood.

This was nice!! and SPICCCEEYYY!!!

Drinks were sold in Bamboos or clay bottles.. Also RM 2, and u get to take it home!!

Then at night, we had a nice tom yam dinner.. I liike...:D And out of nowhere an elephant appeared!! Apparently u can pay the man, he'll give u some foodstuff so that u can feed the elephant..haha.. Imagine, eating ur dinner and suddenly a stinking elephant appears beside u..rofl!

Then back home, i didnt do much either.. Sleep, squash, tv, eat, computer was basically my routine.. heheh...-holiday mah!!-

Made a homemade pizza.. okok, the dough base was bought but i did the toppings leh.. haha..!! sausages, onions, garlics, button mushromms, green capsicum, chicken lyoner, some herbs and parmesan cheese -yummy!!

End result

And then i camwhored with the dog ALOT!!! till he got bored and fed up with me cuz i keep shouting at him to stay still..LOL..


ciao!

ps: Elfe says WOOF!! to u.. =D
