December 14 | Melaka for the ♥'s birthday

It was the Bf's birthday on the 14th of December and I could only get an off day on the 14th instead of 2 days which we agreed on, but cus I just started my job hence I didn't really want to have too much requests. So, we had no choice but to cancel our Genting trip plan and instead, we planned an impromptu Melaka trip! Hehe mad happy one cus I've wanted to visit Malacca since forever!

Woke up early in the morning to catch the 8am coach bus to Melaka/Malacca, Malaysia. Didn't expect the journey to be that long.. It took about 4 hours! Oh my god.

Anyways, first stop was for lunch after we stepped our foot on Jonker Street! 








Chicken rice ball! 

Honestly speaking, the chicken is really good but not the rice. Seriously.. Hmm slightly overrated? But still worth a try, as it is really cheap for half chicken + 15 rice balls. Their chili and lime juice also nice leh! ^^

Super cute and interesting stool I wanted to get so so much but didn't cus of the heavy weight! Didn't want to lug it home all the way, it'll be a nightmare. Lol...



Photo frame which I took a super long time to decide whether I want to get it or not and in the end I decided not to. Hahaha.. Wanted to get it and put a picture taken in Melaka of me and the Bf, but realised we wouldn't be able to get any nice shots cus it was just the 2 of us :(






After walking around for a while, we realised we were at Jonker 88 already. The chicken rice balls haven't even digested, we had to stuff ourselves with food again hahaha.... Just in case we cannot find the way back or something, we just went ahead and order our food!! 

I already told the Bf the Laksa (RM5++) not worth trying cus I've read reviews and it is not nice!! But he insisted he want to try.. And really lor...... Not nice. Some more still eat until so bloated -.- Stubborn man.

Their Chendol was really really good though! I looove it. I like that they topped it off with the Gula Melaka which was damn good please. Must must must try!! I ordered the Baba Chendol (RM3) and ordered the Baba Durian Chendol (RM4) for the Bf.

Came across this durian puff store which was highly raved about too, so we bought 3 to try and boy........ It was good! Oh yums yums durian puffs..... Me likey.

After stuffing ourselves to the maximum, we had nowhere to go...  :'(

But just nice!!! We came across this Baba-Nyonya Heritage Museum. I've seen reviews on it on Tripadvisor and told the Bf we should give it a go since we also got nothing better to do already lol.. We were damn full and cannot afford to eat anything else anymore if not our tummy will probably explode hahahahaha ~

The tour costed RM12 per pax. The Nyonya lady guided us inside with all the other tourists and told us stories and history of the house. Interesting and beautiful place. Worth a visit~

After our mini tour in the heritage museum, we walked until damn exhausted before we finally reached at the Satay Celuk place that we wanted to have dinner at, but the queue was really scary... All the way until 2-3 shop houses away..... Oh mai god lor...  D:



Selfie a bit while queuing before the Bf realised we wouldn't have enough time to queue and eat before we need to leave for the bus terminal. Sadly, we had to leave the queue and jumped into a taxi to go to another Satay Celuk place, but it was closed already. :(

So in the end, the taxi uncle brought us here!




Very very gooooooood. And super super cheap @ RM0.70 per stick.

BUT..........

There's always pros and cons. The satay sauce....... maybe got thousands and thousands of people's saliva. LOL!!!!! 

And yes, we still ate it. 

You can choose to change the whole sauce to a new one, which costs RM48 and the boss will do a new one in front of you right away. The Bf and I contemplated for super long on whether we should change or not but in the end I decided not to cus I see all the locals also never ask to change leh... Only the Singaporean family of 4 next table to us changed it. So I guess there won't be any problem one lah... The heat already kill all the bacterias... :x  

Like seriously, I really think it's very wasted for us to spend RM48 to change it to a new one, need to wait for it to boil again and we really don't have much time left. Some more we also not say very hungry mah.. Eat for fun only, so a bit like no point changing new one lah. Right? RIGHT? :\

自我安慰。

Lol.

After finishing our dinner, we had to literally rush to the bus terminal for our coach bus at 7:30pm! So rush, me no likey. :(  Hopefully next time can drive in or stay a night or two, so don't need to be so "ganjiong"! :(

Okay that's it for my last post regarding 2013! The last place I travelled to in 2013. :)

September 2 | Sis's Birthday BBQ

During my birthday over here , my mother said like how she missed the old times when we were all still kids , all my relatives will gather together for BBQ , I think I remember she said like monthly .. Super family bonding one . But after a lot of us grew up , they don't do that anymore . Actually I also don't remember I ever went to BBQ with all my relatives too . Lol .

So ! My mother excitedly mentioned to organise a BBQ again during my Sis's b'day . My Sis said she don't mind , but who's gonna prepare haha ! The noble Mum said she will do everything . Hahaha .. So much love one .

On the actual day , I got my day off and my Sis was on annual leave for a day too . I literally nua-ed the whole afternoon away and I think my Sis was helping my Mum . My god , I really got no impression on what happened that afternoon . Or did I slept through the whole noon ?  (O.O)zzzz

When it was about 5pm ? We placed everything into 2 styrofoam box and called a cab .


This was taken before everyone arrived , but also actually not a very big group of people la .. I kinda like it like this . Just very relaxing and comfortable . 
**Bad quality photo by iPhone 5 ( iPhones cannot take proper photos in the night!! D: )** 


客家酸菜 by my Mother !! Super yumsssss ~ She made it as promised to Eugene and Molly during my b'day . My Sis's friends loved it too ~


I really want to learn how to make 客家酸菜 from my mother as you cannot ever ever find it outside ? I don't know la , but to this very moment I still haven't seen it outside . Actually got a lot I want to learn from my mother la , but just no chance yet and my mum is like super fast speed one .. Like BAM BAM BAM !! All dishes done ! Scary one . Just like I wanna learn how to use the sewing machine , her sewing machine also so fast .. I cannot ... Haha .. Oh and also all these housewives like to use "agar-ation" aka estimation . So you can never ever get how much seasonings to put . -.-


** No photos of my Sis with her cake/friends cus all the photos are with her :b **

Early in the morning some luvin' from my mama ~


2nd trip to USS !



This pic is better cus not so many strangers in the background but the Bf blinked his eyes -.-

This one so many people walking behind . zzzzz


I really doubt anyone can take a proper , or rather perfect picture without any strangers with this Universal Studio globe . Sigh !




We were SO late !! We only reached like about 3+ if I never remember wrongly .. So long already I also don't quite remember , but I remember we rushed like crazy just to catch Karen in Abby ! Hahaha ~


And then the Bf ruined this one and only photo againnnnnn zzzzzzzz


I don't like this character . Like a tiko only .. Omgzz disgusting ...


Aikssss finally ~ USS Turkey Leg !!


Ehh it's really damn good !!! Very shiok hahaha .. But after a while it got a little difficult to bite into without making a mess on your face/nose , then the Bf had to peel the meat and feed me *shy*


Didn't took much rides , cus I'm a scaredy cat *meowzz* , I think only took the mummies ride in the Egypt area .. After that was transformer ride already . The whole point of this trip for me is the transformer ride !! Haha ~














Ahhhhh super love this bottle ~ But aiya , only will use once like very wasted .. Ok not really .. I used it for a few days more at home before it was kept into the cabinet .  :\




After that ...............

It was time to go and catch Sesame Street Show ! Actually if not because Karen was gonna be in Abby , and told me to go watch I also won't know all the show timings . Haha ..


Sumz pizza while waiting for the show to start ~

Aye this one quite real leh , so it's like quite scary lol.....

Very proud of myself cus I didn't bought it .  ^^  Altho it's like 100% cuteness but also 100% useless .


After that was home straight cus my mum prepared steamboat ~ Not much pics la , cus also not like the first time already ..
