I am sort of back… not fully yet! Got lots of things to rush! Beginning of a new year is coming soon, so I got a pile of work for me to deal with.
So I should not be around much anymore until all this work is done. I apologize if you drop by and see neither update nor any replies to your comments. But I want you all to know you are all in my mind all the time :).
So here is a heads up! I will be taking a break from blogging to get work done. Please do miss me yea :P. Yea you read that right! Do MISS me! Haha!
I might be posting randomly once I get all things sorted out and maybe not as frequent as I used to post until all work is fully settled!
I hope to see you all soon again~ Maybe in one month time, or maybe two months! I will see how it goes! Let’s hope I return soon because I know I will miss all of you!
After my Dinner with “Yakisoba” People” post, I promised you Mac and Cheese, but I delayed it for a recent happening that I had to share! But today I am again going to delay the Mac and Cheese (probably after a few more post too haha).
The next day my family and I went to One Utama for our yearly shopping.
Of course I did not fail to take shots of the Christmas decors.
Christmas Tree.
Centre court of the old wing where they always have those promotion sales going on.
One Utama did a White Lyrical Christmas theme.
Looks like a very grand architecture.
Here’s the real thing.
Gorgeous! Somehow reminds me of Ice Queen’s castle hahaa!
Looks who was on stage?
Star Wars’ Darth Vader and Strawberry Shortcake! Every kid was going up the stage to take pictures with them.
More pictures of the theme.
It was beautiful… all in white… and the cages was rotating (I should of take a video of it but er… family was and they rushed me). Makes me feel all peaceful among all these White Lyrical Christmas! Somehow Christmas just always gives me the peaceful feeling haha.
They were giving away a theme gift too.
It is a musical egg shaped box I think (tell me if there is a better name for this). But you have to spend RM500 and above! Gasps! Really making people shop! I didn’t read properly though… I wonder if we can combine receipts. If we could gasps! I failed to get it… because I believe my family bought for about that price if items!
I didn’t go home empty handed.
I got a free bear from Jaya Jusco. Cute yea? Hehehe… I gave it to my colleague’s daughter after taking a shot at it for memory :)
So far these are the Christmas decorations I have seen in Malaysia. Which do you like best? Or maybe you got your own to share? Remember to show me ^_^.
I will be away this weekend and will only be back next week. So I would not be visiting any of your blogs for the time being or even visiting my own haha! I will see you all soon, or maybe next year :). Oh by the way, this is a scheduled post… in fact I have been scheduling a lot post recently… been busy and all which is why sometimes you can see I posted but I may not be around hehe.
While I am here and being today is Christmas; I take this opportunity to extend my wishes to you all.
I took the bell wreath from the internet and added some touch and message to it. Not much time to do, so just a simple one. Hope you all have a good Christmas and holiday :). Don’t forget to have a good time… and smile always ^_^.
will be postponing my Mac and Cheese post for some other time… as I think most of my readers are getting afraid to come here because of all the food that makes them hungry all the time haha!
So what will I do? I will post a recent happening. Advance warning, long post with LOTS of pictures ^_^.
As everyone know it was a 3-days weekend again for Malaysians (or maybe some other countries too? I don’t know) just this previous weekend. So my friends and I decided to go watch “Avatar”
(I was searching for the movie Avatar image in the web… and I keep getting Avatar the Last Airbender hahaha). We went to Pavilion, KL (it is my first trip there too)… for the first time I am in a small THX hall… weird :P.
Anyway, the movie is really nice! Touching and I did tear a few… the scene are gorgeous! The graphics are good… I can’t help but kept going “wow!” Though of course come to think of it now, the whole movie reminds me of Starcraft. I do strongly recommend this movie, it is a worth to watch in a cinema. Some understanding is much needed else just enjoy the sceneries. I will not elaborate much on this, because I think some bloggers out there have done better than I would for example Pikey who did quite a spectacular review on it :). Please do drop by his blog for more info of the movie.
While I was in Pavilion I of course went around admiring their Christmas decoration. I was amazed! They really made the place all looked to good. Being in Pavilion, KL I felt so peaceful… it was like I was in fantasy world!
Take a look :)
Lovely decorations I have to say! Really lovely. I especially love the drapes… it was so high up, I felt like I wa sin a castle walking under it! Did you notice Santa’s sleigh? Of course Santa wasn’t around… RM10 needs to be paid to purchase a coupon to set a time to meet Santa! What?! I thought Santa was free?! Must be the posting fee to send messages to Santa’s helpers in North Pole.
There was a crowd at the centre area when we were heading to go out,
Wonder what it is.
Oh so there are some sports championships there. Squash? Tennis? I actually don’t know haha! Anyone can recognize them? (I know lousy picture, hard to see!)
The multiple views of the water fountain at the main entrance of Pavilion.
My friends and I head over to Times Square after… I only got this shot haha. But it was really nice too!
Going back to Pavilion to shop around and hoping to see snowfall as I was enthusiastic to see it after foongpc mentioned them! So I was eger really very eager! So my friends and I had to return to Pavilion! While I was there, I had to take shots of the white reindeers and sleigh…
But oh so many people! All blocking the view haha and this is my best shot of it!
Oh guess what?!
Mahathir was there too!
Everyone was crowding around him… wanting to shake his hand, take a picture with him… Well, since I didn’t want to crowd near… I decided to take a shot of him from a far.
Soon after we went shopping…
There was a performance on stage! I only managed some parts of it… and mind you I am really a lousy video recorder :P.
I took this performance from the top floor.
Nearing 8pm we headed to the place of where the main entrance is… of course we were at the floor above. We decided not to go down to experience the snowfall. Why?
This is why :P. Look at the crowd?! I don’t want to be stampede there! Haha!
Here are some of the shots of the snowfall.
Here is a video of the snowfall I took :).
I kept moving the camera about so show the different scene… made it all so dizzy hahaha :P. Sorry yea! Of course all this are foam... but looked like real snow right? Even looks better through the glass pane.
I took some of the decorations again to see the comparison of day and night.
Fountain was made by crystal glass... wow... I took a lousy shot at this :P so hard to read haha! Fountain of wealth it says! Or did I read it wrong? :P
Of course the final shot; Pavilion’s entrance at night :P.
I hope you enjoyed my long picture post… I tried not to write too much because I don’t want to see my readers falling asleep on the keyboard haha!
That’s all for now!
During the 3-days weekend of Hari Raya Haji, I was in Singapore… and my last two post was me cooking for hubs :P. (oh yes I cook! Once in a blue moon!) But of course, we didn’t stay home all 3-days when I was there; we went out to meet up with some of the gamers of the current game I am playing now which is Atlantica Online. Another blogger Pikey is playing :D.
So when gamers gather, what do we talk about and do? We talk about game hahaa! :P. Of course we ate our dinner as well.
We went to Ikoi Japanese Restaurant, Miramar Hotel for Japanese buffet. The price is S$33++ per pax.
Chawanmushi
This is firm and not like a lot of places I have eaten that is watery and it has a whole prawn inside (peeled, head and tail gone).
Assorted Sashimi
Oh this is heavenly! They got Mejajiki too! That is my favorite sashimi!
Mejajiki Sashimi
So of course since I am allowed to order Mejajiki on its own, I did not hesitate to order more! I think I ordered like 4-5 plates of this. Oh it was so sweet… yummy!
I know some of you my readers don’t take raw food, so I apologized for it but no fret! I got cooked food to show too!
Assorted Tempura
The Ebi Tempura prawn is fresh prawn! Not oily, crispy on the outside, succulent on the inside! Oh delicious! Of course without fail, everyone at the table ordered like probably about 40-50 more pieces of those!
Complimentary Hotpot
I am not sure if it is a hotpot… but oh this is sweet! The put the salmon bones in it to boil… the soup was so nice! I took all the Straw Mushrooms :P. I love those!
Yakisoba
This came very late after we ate so many other things! They keep getting our order wrong and bringing the cold soba! Weird! Haha! But we had to try this even if were full! Why? Because in the game this is our guild name :P. Now you know why the title of this post ^_^.
There are a lot more of the other foods that I forgot to take a picture of such as Chicken Yakitori, the pregnant fish thing that I don’t know its name and don’t eat, fried rice that came in a really small bowl but was oh so delicious, and etc etc :P. We didn’t order everything in the menu of course… I was attacking the Mejajiki I forgot about the rest! This place has no beef in their menu. They got sake too, but that is part of the ala-carte menu and not the buffet.
Well, I can’t post up the group picture, not right to do so when I do not have their permission :/. So I shall keep that to myself. I hope you are not drooling by now over the food above. I know I am! Dangit! Now I want Mejajiki and Ebi Tempura.
Next up – Macaroni and Cheese (ah yes more food post XD).
