Manicure~

2 months since we last went in! Got my nails done today! I had soft gel done for my finger nails and classic for pedi. My first time doing gelish as I had heard about how thin the nails get after doing gelish. As the function I had to attend is on next sunday, no choice I had to do gelish so it can last till that day. I love the colours!



Total rm110! Cheap! Especially when the msia rate is high now. =)

Buffet : Buffet Town

Group dinner at buffet town! Spacious with wide varieties of food to choose from! Gonna bring my parents here someday!

The food counters are scattered over the restaurant so customers have to walk around the restaurant to hunt for the food that they want to try. Seafood counter is located near the entrance which is a good thing as this is the only food counter that you should focus on if you decide to visit Buffet Town. The seafood are fresh and the selection of prawns, crayfish, oysters, crab should be able to satisfy the seafood lovers. Another food counter located near the entrance is the Japanese food section. There's also western, chinese and of course dessert counter! Although the food aren't that fantastic but it is worth the price you are paying for. =)

Neutrogena ultra sheer sunblock

Recently I'm quite into beauty products and also controlling my diet. Yes, I dont give a damn in the past. But when I realize that few brown spots(is that freckles?) are appearing on my arms, dull skin, weight is not going down etc, I suddenly wakes up to reality. Im no longer a teenager. Body and skin wont be like before anymore and I'm reaching the big 3! I had been doing online research and buying beauty products. Today I add sunblock to my daily routine. I know ladies will be screaming, pulling their hair when I said I never apply sunblock before (except going beach). I have reason of not doing so... Might be a little late to start now but better than none! Neutrogena ultra sheer sunblock with spf 50+. Got it at Watson for $22.90


Ingredients

Product says: Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 50+ (PA+++) is a breakthrough in sun protection.  Stabilized with Helioplex, it provides superior balanced broad-spectrum protection against skin-aging UVA and burning UVB rays, and combines it with Dry Touch technology for an ultra light, non-shiny finish. This lightweight sunblock has a light fresh scent and is gentle enough for even sensitive skin.  I love how easy to apply and how light it feels after application. It's not greasy or streaky, and it blends well onto my skin and it has a fairly high spf. It also has a rather fresh scent. Feels pretty good for now. =)

The Aftermath Of watching Ah Boys To Men

I know this movie had been taken down from the theatre few months ago but I'm sure everyone still remember this. This movie is a hit with people of all age even my boys! They are so obsessed with the characters that they even form an 'army' in the centre and requested to go botak when I bring them for haircut. (-.-) They even name themselves after the characters, lobang king and aloysius. Leroy likes lobang king alot and Lervin prefer aloysius. The characters they choose are almost like their character!
While we are doing grocery shopping, Lervin saw this poster and immediately requested for my phone to take photo of the poster. He said he wants to show Leroy. Lol!

Pasar Malam

Pasar malam at AMK and so we brought Lervin there!
He is so excited when he see the mini games! He choose the bouncy slides! $4 for 10mins and another catching the fishes. $5 for 3 tries. Expensive... Once a while for should be alright....

Cafe : D Good Café

Brain storming gate-crash ideas! So before the brain starts working, we need to feed ourselves with food!

Meeting point at D good cafe @ Holland Village.
The space here as it is spacious and occupies 2 storeys of the shophouse. The cafe is also segmented into various sections, the Lawn, the Bar, the Attic and the Balcony.













Cream of mushroom soup @ S$6.00
Flavour is all there but the consistency was too watery for my liking.
Satisfactory though!


Prawn Aglio Olio @ S$16.00
There are a lots of prawns buried within the pasta.


Egg Mayonnaise Sandwich @ S$8.50


Homemade English Breakfast @ S$16.50
Yummy yummy back bacon, sauteed mushrooms, baked beans, baked tomato, toasts, English Cumberland sausage and sunny side-ups.


Eggs Benedict @ S$13.50

I really liked D' Good Cafe because it has so much room and it's suitable for any occasions! I could laze away on the sofa, chill on the swing over a cuppa, dine romantically with my special one, or have a serious date with my books. There is enough on the menu to choose from and the ice-blended coffee would be on my wishlist till the next time!

Dinosaur shape pasta!

With the newly bought dinosaur shape pasta, the boys had been pestering me to cook their favourite tomato pasta.
This time the sauce taste so much better!

Before I can take any photo, the boy dig in almost immediately.

Discharge!

Specialist came and have a check on Leroy and he said Leroy can be discharge today!
He is able to walk and run now and not like yesterday can't even bend his knees.

We are to go back to the clinic for monthly checkup that includes urine test to make sure that his kidneys are not affected and we are given 10 bottles of ibuprofen to take thrice a day. Medicines are brought up to us, discharge done in room and we left the hospital around 3pm.

HPS (Henoch-Schönlein Purpura)

High fever with rashes and without any delay we brought him to clinic and he is referred to KKH instead....


We are given priority Q due to the diagnose given by GP and after consultation by Dr, he needs to be admitted....


Status : Diagnose with HPS. Read up more here.

Movie : Turbo

Another movie with the boy!

"From the makers of Madagascar and Kung Fu Panda, Turbo is a high-velocity comedy about an underdog snail, who kicks into overdrive when he miraculously attains the power of super speed! But after making fast friends with a crew of streetwise, tricked-out es-car-goes, Turbo learns that no one succeeds on their own. So he puts his heart and shell on the line to help his pals achieve their dreams, before Turbo-charging his own impossible dream: winning the Indy 500."

Lunch before Yu Guo.

After getting Q-no at Yu Guo, we had lunch at bedok.

From Lervin.

We were away when it is 1st day of lunar 7th month so we can only do the praying today. I never like the process but just for the seek of family, I just follow so. The hus is all serious-faced when doing the praying and when he is sticking the candles in the soil, lervin asked innocently," is it the grass birthday?" We burst out laughing! This is how innocent a child can be. =)

Langkawi : Day 5

We reach airport really early! Even before the sun is up! Have to wait for the guy to return the car key to him and we still have more than enough time to have our breakfast and coffee.

Coming to an end of our holiday...

Very reluctant to leave this beautiful island... But we are glad that we manage to make it here and try our best to fully utilise this trip!

Hope to be back with my boys someday!

Langkawi : Day 4 (Part II)

Taking transport provided back to hotel after our island hop. Very much wanted to go to famous cable car ride at Oriental village but due to the time spend going back hotel and take the car doesn't leave us much time to travel there. Overhead that the driver is sending 2 tourists there and we are overjoyed! Decide to alight there and think of a way back to hotel later! (ps: quite hard to get a taxi there although it's tourist attraction place. Maybe it's a weekday

Finally!!
Langkawi Cable Car is located just north of Telaga Harbour, Pantai Kok, with the entrance within 'ORIENTAL VILLAGE' - a theme shopping centre housing in 30 individually designed buildings showcasing Malaysian and Oriental architecture.


Read online that at times you may need to Q up to 4hrs! Express pass comes to use at this point.. just need to fork out more. =) Lucky us, there's no Q at all!


The journey from the Base Station to Middle Station will cover 1,700 meters in length and upon reaching the Middle Station at an elevation of 650m above sea level, visitors will be able to alight and walk up to the viewing platforms. We are at middle station!




Look at this! Amazing view!




At the Top Station. A short walk up the stairs from the Top Station will take visitors to the two viewing platforms at the top of Gunung Machinchang. A cafe at the Top Station offers refreshments and views with cool breezes, at 700m above sea-level is about 5 degrees Celsius (+/-) cooler than lowlands.








I really wanted to walk on the skybridge, but unfortunately, it was closed for maintenance for long time. Otherwise, it would have been such an amazing experience.


There are two observation decks at the Top Station. One on the right and another on the left. Both offer different views of the island. The view was amazing, fantastic and magnifique, as the French would say. I was speechless to see such lush greenery, coupled with strong winds.






Left at around 6.30pm and we waited for 20mins before we see a cab driving in to drop customer!

Back to hotel to wash up and out for dinner! Totally no idea what to have for dinner and we chanced upon this restaurant selling Indian food. Not a fan of this cuisine but just went along with the rest…






Some games before going back to hotel.

Oasis Bar and Restaurant

838 Jalan Pantai Cenang (next to Sunset Beach Resort)

We drive pass this fruit stall everyday and the first fruit we notice is mangoes. Looks very sweet and juicy and here we come after dinner... Who knows that is made of plastic. (-.-)
In the end we didn't buy any as it's pretty expensive and doesn't look very fresh....


Back to hotel after whole day out! Fun! >
