Hunt For Charity.

Charis Hospice Hunt For Charity. Six hours. Four heads. 

Registration per team  is RM400. I saw this earlier in Facebook but did not join because it was too expensive, but in the end because two people from Dream Catcher last minute couldn't make it so we ganti them.

We knew there were gonna be puzzles and codes to solve but we didn't expect it to be so difficult. In summary of the event, everything was hard. The only thing which I thought was the easiest is the roti canai making. That also Koay made it seem so hard. Kidding. Hah. 

Shall say no more and let you view the photos. All in random order because I'm too lazy.. 

Our brekkie.

The chef and his masterpiece :)

sepak bulu tangkis which I suck so bad in it.

Everyone taking the wrong picture.

The correct one.

The girl can write some chinese letters. Not bad hah.

Wrap bak chang with sand.

Our pet, Froggie.

Ways to wear saree. Me, pro okayy. 

THE END.

Almost.

Today, I almost hit a mother and son along Penang Road. Like few centimeters away almost. It's crazy.

I was driving as usual and make a right turning at the main traffic light. I thought it was green, so I just turn. As soon as I turn, Koay suddenly yelled "STOPPP!" like really so loudly and caused me to step on my brake pedal instantly. Stopped directly in front of the baby in the stroller. I turned back and saw that traffic light became red. And everyone was looking at me as if I purposely go against the red light, but I really remembered it being green. I don't know.. :(

Good thing Koay got his head up and saw them in time to shout so loudly that made me stop immediately. If not, both of them would be hit and probably be thrown at a distance because my car was not in the slow speed. IT WAS SO SCARYYY!

Just few more cm and I would have hit the poor baby.

I was trying to get some sleep when I got home after the hunt but could not sleep. Kept replaying that moment in my head. All the what ifs keep playing in my head. I'm just beyond thankful that nothing serious happened. I feel very very bad for making the mother so upset and probably traumatized a bit. 

Thank You God for a miracle today!

So, I liked his videos so much that I just followed him on Instagram and Youtube :)

One Day Drive to KL.

First time, we had to force ourselves to sleep at 9pm! Literally. I was so tempted to continue watching my PLL but couldn't because we need to drive ma. And I needed to sleep early also because I thought we would take turns to drive. In the end also he drove all the way to and fro. *thumbs up*

So, I got up at 4am, feeling so awake and strong and then we hit the road at about 430am. Not long after that, I was snoozing away d untill he woke me up to take a picture of the clouds. Go see my instagram and you'll see what happened there. Hah.

We of course stopped at Ipoh for breakfast and this time, we didn't want to just have the typical dim sum so we headed to the ever famous beef noodles. Yes, we used Waze and Waze needs to be awarded as best app ever invented to mankind :) No pictures of the food here cos we are gonna be posting them at our food blog.

Then, when the sun was up and it was bright enough and also because I shouldn't sleep anymore (cos it makes him sleepy seeing me sleep), we decided to cho siau, with the GPS holder. I even secretly change the mode to video so he wouldn't realize and I can film all his nonsense-out-of-tune-singing-and-dancing. And the start of the video, I just looked into the camera and smiled like for 40 seconds or so, to make him think I was posing for the camera. It doesn't sound funny here but we definitely had lots of laughter going on in the car that time. What a weird couple we make, really.

Oh and we stopped at Sungai Buloh to shower. Never in my entire life when I travel, I would take a bath at a rest stop or things like that. The boy really brings adventure and it was pretty fun.

For him, it's a drive down for interview and make Sarah happy trip.

For me, it's a drive down for holiday and shopping and eat good food and bonding time.

So, it's pretty expected that he would get a bit restless when we got into the hotel and waited like 3 hours for the whole thing to be over.

At one point as I was talking to him, he says to me, "Shhh you don't talk to me now. I very stress. You watch your series!" I straight burst out laughing, only to have other people who are also waiting to be interviewed looked at me.

I don't even know how to pray for him, I told him. Cos if he works in KL, that means we're hundreds of kilometres away from each other. Me and LDR, doesn't exactly go hand in hand.

But I told him that if that's what he really wanted and if that's a part of God's plan, of course i will have no choice but to work things out.

When it was all over, I could see a wide smile from his left ear to his right as he was walking towards me. And it's not because he was super happy with how it went. It was because he was "escaping" from a talk that they supposed to attend after the interview. So, if you were at the lobby, you would see two people "running" to the car park, looking all suspicious with giggles here and there.

Only KL slaughter people with their parking fees lo. Mad eh. Lose the ticket and penalty is RM25. Supposedly our fee was RM22, but hotel gave discount :)

After that, we went to meet up with his cousin and had dim sum. We had the most amazing delicious char siew pau. No kidding. It was so yummy! Oh and that was lunch for us.

We then decided to go KLCC since it's nearby and the moment we went into the underground car park, we knew that parking fees will for sure be two digits AGAIN.

Me: Never mind la. I don't want to walk too far. Not safe.

Him: True la.

Me: We're on holiday whatt. Money is not a problem. Hahaha.

Him: *straight poker face*

After walking around and having lots and lots of discussion, we decided to go up the Twin Tower. I have never been up there and I thought that it would be nice to be at such a place of great heights. For him not so much. He's afraid of heights. But he went in the end.

Many moments where I had to hold his hand tight. SO FUNNNY! Got one time I scared him from behind, and his face straight turned green.

 For RM25, I think it was a bit too pricey. And considering that it was pretty hazy, it wasn't awesome wow view. I wouldn't pay to go up there again. For non Mykad holders, it's RM80! Mad expensive wei. But the Twin Tower very iconic and pretty la, especially when they are lighted up at night!

We wanted to go PetroSains but closed just 10 minutes before we arrived. Geram much. We did tried other things like what it really felt like being in a real earthquake and the boy speaking to a screen about nuclear power. More like scolding the screen. How can one person be more silly than this that I'm with?

Success. The face shows no fear. Very good very good.

This part reminds me of the movie "The Tower" or something. The one about a Korean tower collapsed and killed many people.

We took quite a qhile to decide on what to have for dinner cos KLCC have quite limited of reataurants I would say. I think Pavillion has more. Anyways, we walked up and down, left and right and finally settled for Yuzu. The Amazing Japanese Restaurant. I think it became our favorite Japanese Restaurant, immediately. Too bad our hps died when we wanted to take pictures and stuff. It was such a great time together, having an almost perfect meal.

We drove back to the island and made many stops. Too sleepy. We actually slept in Bukit/Batu Gantang's rest stop for like 30 minutes before pushing ourselves to finish the final lap. HORRIBLE. Next time, we take bus or we fly! Hahaha.

Definitely a day well spent with the boy :)

Currently.

• looking at lots of people with formal clothing.
• at Renaissance Hotel in the heart of the mad city.
• trying to save as much battery on my laptop as possible because I forgot the charger.
• waiting for his interview to start.
• thinking of what else to write. 
• enjoying every bits of my really short but sweet getaway.

Family Dinner.

SPECIAL occasion calls for SPECIAL dinner with SPECIAL people.

DadKhoo's blessed birthday.

And so we decided to go eat something unusual and yummy to the max and far from the island.

Raja Uda is not only famous for tomyam okay. You can read all that in our food blog! :)

I'm not going to talk about how heavenly the steamboat was and how we ate to our hearts' content. NO KIDDING. Every drop of sweat is so worth it :)

It's that goooooooooood!

It was a fun night because:

1. we convinced Kelly to join us
2. there was not much of traffic on the bridge
3. tasting boiled bacon for the first time
4. we had the best han chin peng ever
5. the soup is refillable
6. Koay peeled the prawns
7. okay maybe not all cos Van peeled most of it
8. no one fights over the strips of abalone
9. teased Vanessa till she got speechless
10. got entertained with Nathan and Jayden's video
11. discussed about the Sulu issue
12. realised that boiled bacon is quite horrible to eat
13. we tried on pandan fried stuff and loved it
14. we took the ferry home
15. koay looked hilarious in the family photo we took on the ferry (his hair)
16. their toilets have air cond

family is love :)

Couple Comment.

**tie-shopping at Queensbay after lunch today**

Me: Babe, you know how people always comment on couples? Like that guy so handsome why he can end up with that girl not pretty eh? Or that girl so pretty la but also end up with a guy not handsome at all?

Him: Yeah.. Why..?

Me: I wonder what would people say about us hor.. *touches his face with one side eyebrow raised*

Him: *stares with one sided smile*

Me: Can you be the not handsome one ah? Then, let me be the pretty girl?

Him: *smiles* Yes, I'm the ugly one..

Me: Aww.. You the best la *grins* *whispers softly* Good thing you sedar sendiri also! HAHA.

Salty Sweat.

Today, the three of us woke up an hour early to get prepared for our weekly Saturday training. First time of going back there after six months plus. All are excited. I was too sleepy to join in their excitement. So sleepy till I drove to the wrong place. Good thing we were not late when we went to the right venue. Hah.

Anyways, holding that favorite stick of mine after so long feels so so good. I never thought that I have missed playing it so badly. You know, I do miss it but it's like the moment I held it, my world just came together. Of course there were fitness sessions into it. That, I don't miss so much. Holding the stick and chasing after the ball is so much more enjoyable. 

Kelly definitely played more of floorball too today. She really went for it, you know. Like charging towards the opponent for the ball. Not bad my kiddo. Vanessa Khoo leh, well she have more stamina than me. We did suicide rounds today and she was for sure faster than me by a lot! Like a lot a lot! 

Here's to many more training and sweating while we still can :)

Up, Up Here We Go.

Me: Give me a topic so I can blog about it :)
Vanessa: Me.
Me: Okay. Great idea! I'm gonna dig out all your photos and blog about it! :P
Van: *straight panic*

and for that, give me some time to find photos that will make your day :)

Pastor called me just now and I'm blogging about it because it's like one of the most thank-God-I-answered-the-phone moment! He called and said, "We are not going Sri Sayang d. We finally booked the Penang Hill one!"

Talk about INSTANT MOOD LIFTER! :)

Everyone loves the Bethel House of Prayer! Three nights up in that cold weather, BEST THING EVER!

Dinner Over The Sea.

Even on working days, you can do something fun at night. That's absolutely rightt.

And that something fun was a trip to Raja Uda for dinner.

Yes, it's really true that Penang people would travel for just one meal, as long as it's good and recommended by many. So where did we go for dinner? Here! (another way to promote our food blog hah)

Anyways, so we all gathered in my place and met up with the rest at E-Gate and convoy-ed together, using Waze. We didn't actually know that we were all talking about different Heng Heng but since we thought that no one else knew the directions there so we used Waze. And boy, can I tell you Waze really brings us through the shortcuts and got us worried at one point.

But all is well. We arrived safely and ate to our heart's content (if you follow me on my instagram, you would have seen my dinner's photo).

Fun continues when we all decided to take the ferry home. NOT because of the cracked bridge. I have to say, taking the ferry back to the island at night definitely feels a lot different than when it's in the noon. Pretty lights everywhere and Penang is such a beautiful island. Ahh, thanking God that I was born and raised here :)

And take ferry means you've gotta wait for the ferry. So while waiting, we did what everyone else would.. *scrolls down*

Pardon the quality of my photos please. Those clearer ones are obviously taken with an iPhone5. Duhh..

Ferry landed at the perfect side of the island because then we went searching for a place to hangout and coffee. We probably went to three different shops only to end up at Chinahouse.

 I don't know why I took this picture of the crayons. I think it's the colors.

Thanks to Instagram, everyone else would take pictures of anything that is colorful or black and white or a lamp post or clouds.

Nothing wrong about that but I guess I'm also being sucked into that "trend!"

Crayons on the table but no paper to let us use it on? Funny much.  

*watching Pretty Little Liars now and getting distracted*

*and doing a sales report* Talk about multitasking hah.

Next, desserts! (not a big fan of desserts, at all) but I decided to order coconut ice cream since Lovelocks have been closed for so long! Sadness overloaded.

worst coconut ice cream, ever.

Some of the bunch went up to the gallery but we stayed back. Too lazy to move our butts. So, we moved our hands and fingers, and cracked some lame jokes here and there :)

Great night out :)

Next one: FISH STEAMBOAT! (hopefully!)

Ask and it will be given to you.

And that is exactly what I did.

**At drive-thru Starbucks with Benjamin Yeoh, Nicholas Choong, Nicole Linn John, and Andrew Chan last night**

Me: Anyone wants to buy me the mug? RM25 only! *points at the mug on the display counter*
All: *poker face*
Chan: Ask Koay to buy for you la.
Me: *raises eyebrows*

**30 minutes later, Joshua Tan arrived and sat down**

Me: *looks at him* You want to buy a mug for me? Only RM25. *points at the same mug*
Tan: *looks at the mug from the distance* Okay, your birthday gift lo.
Me: *smiles from one ear to the other ear* SERIOUS? *rushes to the counter and grab one*

This, my dear friends is a perfect example of ASK, AND IT WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU! :)

RM25 mug for the 25th birthday.

It makes horrible days much more bearable. Not that I have a lot of horrible days. But coming to office to this precious mug definitely gives a very nice and warm feeling :)

thank you, joshua tan sao peng :)

now, who wants to belanja me raja uda's tomyam tonight? :D

Period.

A friend asked me a question today. A question related to girls and their monthly routine.

You know, questions like do you girls really get moody when it's that time of the month, are you all conscious about the moodyness, can you all control it and stuff like that. I definitely didn't find that difficult to answer because I obviously went through moody seasons like nobody's business. Hahaha. Koay can tell you stories about it too I think.

And what struck me is the question, "Can you control it?". As in control not being moody. And I kept thinking about it. I think for many times, I did not CHOOSE to control it. I just let it be because I know I have an excuse to back it up. Now that I think back, it's unfair. Unfair to my family and to Koay. It's like I get irritated at every single words they say or every thing they do. Now, I really believe that a girl can control whether to let the moodyness take over.

Guys have it a lot easier just because they don't have monthly issues to deal with. And especially the pain that comes with it, HORRIBLE. I used to have that pain every month. So painful to the point that I will scream my lungs out in the room, used hot boiling water and put it in a glass bottle and put it on my skin so that I won't feel the internal pain and take panadols. I usually want to avoid taking paracetamol but most of the time I still have to take it. Too painful. So guys, you should be thankful that this pain you don't have to go through :)

My birthday wish to God two years ago was to remove this terrible torture, and taking them away He did :)

15th Night.

Chap Goh Meh.

My first time after many many years of life. His first time too actually. I have never thrown any oranges (or rubbist etc) into the sea before so this time, having the chance to throw something into the sea IN THE OPEN seems pretty fun for me. One thing though, we didn't bring any ORANGES! Epic la I tell you. So we ended up spending RM3 for just two oranges.  

 If I actually remembered, I would have brought a lot a lot of oranges to throw non-stop. I wrote the famous John 3:16 verse onto it and Koay created a "new" profile for the boys who were gonna pick them up.

There were so many people there that if you don't hold your lover's hand/shirt/shoulder/hair, you WILL lose sight of each other. They even had a kid going up on stage to find his parents. And then of course there were free food offered, like nasi melayu (rice with a piece of potato in a dhal-like curry and a piece of sambal taukua), the ever famous mee sotong (the line to this stall is beyond madness), Bamboo buffet food and some other stuff. We lined up for a few but all got sold out very quickly. We ended up DID NOT eat anything there! *pats self*

And then we went for coffee at Behind 50 and watched one of the most amazing fireworks ever. The finale of it was just four thumbs up! And you know what made it even better?

Watching it with him while being hugged :)

Good Morning.

Oh how crazy it is that it's already last day of this eat non-stop festive? I could use another extension of one week being in this holiday mood!

Yesterday God revealed something to my heart. Something I didn't know that was in me all this long. And it was so reassuring, so wow, so personal and so precious. In Your promise, I stand firm and know. Nothing will shake me off this faith that wows me when I least expected it :) Trusting in You is life's most peaceful thing. 

So, how are you spending your last day of Chinese New Year? We are gonna run a few rounds in Youth Park, and then sessions of captain ball.Probably will head to Esplanade or Straits Quay to throw some oranges. Not that I want to do that (specially for all the single ladies) but I guess it will be fun to throw oranges into the sea. We'll see what happens.

Enjoy your last days of CNY people :)

WhatTwoEatHere is One.

WE ARE CELEBRATING OUR ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY TODAY!

Quite difficult to chew on the fact that we have been food blogging for a year already. I still remember how it was like when we first started it! And who know, one year later, we are still into this thing and gonna be getting a new baby for better quality photos! I am excited to launch into this year two. Blogging like this has been fun I have to say. Though there are days where laziness kicks in and we just decided to post it up another day. Nowadays, that has been the case actually. Hah. 

Oh well, BLESSED ONE YEAR WhatTwoEatHere!

And thank you all for reading us and following us so faithfully! :)

Blessed Friday to you all :)

Child.

Where got people so childish one? Say one thing, but do another thing which totally contradicts to what was said earlier! It's like you say you've let go of eating rice, but once in a while you still sneak around to get some rice. Okay, maybe not a very good example. If a person is really matured,  he/she will be able to find something, just something to forgive and let the past stay as that. I mean, you say you've let go and moved on, but at the same time you are doing something that totally shows that you have not let it go. It's still haunting you every now and then. I don't know la. And to tell your whole world about it for what? So that people would sympathize with you and "support" you? I mean, even by doing that you can't let it go. It will always be there unless you decide for yourself like you really want to let it go. Keep saying that to yourself and people around you isn't gonna help you to actually let go. 

I'm a bit upset because never in my whole entire life, will I ever expect to see this coming my way. Never. I always thought you are a person who knows how to handle these kind of situations, especially after almost two years since the incident. For you to tell me what you told me just proves to me otherwise. 

Sad and disappointed can't even describe how I really feel, at all.

THIS MORNING IS MAD.

I don't know what happened.

So many things that I know, that I have to pretend I don't know. Sometimes, it's true that the lesser you know, the better it is. Or at least that applies for people's life stories.

The first two sentence is NOT related to the third one.

I'm just not in the mood to work, hence the babbling and randomness.

One year already since I put my braces on.

I count the hours to when I can continue watching Pretty Little Liars again.

"I fetch you home k, cos my baby girl gotta work tomorrow"

I stared at the AirAsia ZERO Promo screen for about 10 minutes. Krabi or Cambodia or Vietnam? I wouldn't mind going back to Vietnam and hentam all the noodles I can.

My angpow moolahs this year is STRICTLY for the new baby I'm gonna get. MUST GET before Sha Lynn pops out.

It's 3 more days to both of us celebrating our first anniversary of WhatTwoEatHere.

The title of this update is because that's the first thing I saw on my desk.

One week left to Chinese New Year. More angpows needed :)

Koay about to launch into the working world, and I can tell that he's very excited for this chapter to begin. Such a weirdo I tell you. Heh.

I did not see my favorite twins yesterday. It's like something of Sunday Church is missing.

I love attending weddings. Just like Joshua and Rebecca's on Saturday. Short, simple and sweet. Beautiful and smart bride + Handsome and talented groom = THE BOMB.

I just realized recently that I really like to eat taukua (beancurd) in spicy/sambal/curry. I mean I've liked eating them for a while now but never know that I actually really like them! (thanks to Mr Choo's open house taukua sambal!) Haha.

I think I can never be able to leave Penang and go somewhere else to work. How to leave the family? The food? The friends? The church? The fireBRANDS? The room?

I will forever be at 44kilograms. I kid you not. It's been years that I have always stayed at the double digit.

Okay, mood got better after writing some nonsense out.

Jesus, You are above all wealth, treasures of the earth, all authorities and You, I love :)

Challenge #1: Stairs.

Before 2012 ended, I had in mind that I would do something different in 2013. Something that I have never done before. Something that will challenge me, whether mentally, physically or emotionally or in any way.

I took a 6 months break from any physical activities due to some health issues back in 2012, and it is now decided that I want back in into exercise and sports and some running. One major problem, that's all. My stamina is now in negative. Like really negative, and I'm becoming more lazy that I have ever been. Don't know if its because age is catching up, but whatever it is, it has got to stop.

I actually miss playing floorball. Like a lot. So, before I resume my weekly training every Saturday, I thought perhaps I need to do certain things to slowly gain back the stamina that I've lost (yes, I'd like to think that last time my stamina quite good. Heh :P).

And so.. I came up with this challenge.

It is the STAIRS CHALLENGE.

A very simple challenge, but with the level of my laziness now, it's gonna be a tough one. But if I did it, it increases my mental strength, stamina and probably would help firm my behind :) 

So, everyday (with no day off) I will have to WALK UP the stairs whether it's at home or going to the office. One thing about this challenge is that I don't have to walk down using stairs. Just the going UP part. Cool huh.

The challenge supposed to start the day after my birthday but it got delayed because I was not "ready"! Finally, decided to focus and put my mind into it and started on the 15th. So far, so good. We (Koay decided to join in when he's with me) wanted to climb 23 floors up to Julian and Yee Ling's amazing home last night but couldn't cos their stairs are locked up for security purposes. Another plus points to getting a house at Surin. 

There is no limit to any challenge I'm gonna give myself. You know, like one week don't use Twitter and stuff like that. Anything of my challenge will have to be an ongoing one. So, I am being very careful when I create one for myself. I want to make sure I can do it and at the same time, it challenges me.

I'm actually in the midst of going into Challenge #2! To be revealed real soon..

Laugh and Cry.

My emotions in two extreme mode in the span of few hours.

How? Why?

Watched these videos la. 

Both also MUST WATCH!

If you watch all three and didn't laugh and then shed tears, you not a human and there's something wrong with youuuu!
