Behind 50.

♥Love & To Be Loved

 caryneDSC006642
Why hello Saturday!
Saturday out with ze sister since she needs to get something. So we went Gurney, again, to survey on cupcakes for her friend's birthday. But we couldn't find any. Anyone has any idea where to get nice and cheap cupcakes? Do leave me a comment here. Appreciate much! :)

After that, she kept on bugging me telling me there's a very nice desert shop at love lane area and want me to bring her there. YET she didn't know where exactly the location is. Not to mention, she didn't have the slightest clue of the name of the desert shop. To satisfy her crave, we decided to take a tour around love lane to search for this delicate desert shop of her saying.

We gave up on the we-dont-know-which desert shop and settled for Behind 50 instead. I've been wanting to pay a visit to this exquisite little corner since a lot of bloggers been discussing about it. Well some places, even the food is not really impressive, are worth paying a visit due to the distinctive ambiance.

Sister loves loves LOVES this cozy place because you could find so many antique stuffs and items especially those from your childhood.


Menu choices are pretty limiting plus most of the orders are unavailable so we couldn't try much. But we do notice that most of the customers are only ordering snacks & drinks instead of the dinner meals.

Aww, really nostalgic. I used to have a lot of these novels.

Interesting spot facing the road.

Nothing to be rave about the food as it's pretty mediocre. Instead of the food, I'd say its more to an entire laid-back experience catching up with buddies.



My sister! Do we look alike?

Overall, I wouldn't come here for the food as its a tad bit pricey. Food taste doesn't worth the price paid I'd say. Anyway, this little cozy corner is definitely suitable for simple catching-up with friends.

Lastly, yours truly.

Penang delicacy x Kayelle savoury x Hometown goodies (Part 1)

♥Love & To Be Loved

I've been talking about being on diet all along but bonne bouche are simply irresistable! Having a big-appetite boyfie and due to my low resistance towards good food, we've been eating every goodies around. Sinful temptation really.

Penang is just an extremely small island, but surprisingly you could dig out a lot of gold delights, let it be inside of the shopping mall or some random insignificant hawker stall! I stay in Penang for 5 years already and I still can find something new to eat, from different sources. Well apparently, I have alot of food-hunter buddies around me. :D okay, I'm blaming them for making me growing rounder & rounder haha! :/

So as I mentioned in the previous post, we went down Kayelle for DG's party and guess what we've been doing for the next few days. Shopping & eating! :D Thanks to boyfie's aunties, found a few places that serve really good food. I'm really regret that I didn't take any picture for one of the restaurants we had tried. It was located somewhere inside a taman near Tropicana mall. Very tricky small roads that I couldn't figure out till now. But they served the BEST indo tauhu. I just tried it for the very first time, but I just couldn't stop eating that. Gahh, I miss it already :( why we don't have it here in Penang!? I wanna let my mum try so that she could figured how to cook that for us in the future! *evil grins*

Besides that, we went to this Yip Hup Kee yong tau hu shop which is slightly different from Penang. No offense but I don't really have good impression on Kayelle hawker food, I always find Penang has better one. Well perhaps I'm lousy in finding a good one, but hey this shop totally changed my mind!

They fried it perfectly. Very crispy and not so oily.
DSC00419

Look at the steaming hot soup.I always like the soup to be extremely hot, just like this one.
DSC00420

They called this as wantan mee, but really? It looks exactly like Penang chee-cheong fun. Are you sure its wantan mee? :O I think they sprinkled some shrimpsdried & 'bak-hu' on it which gives the wantan mee/chee-cheong fun a bit of crunchy texture. Interesting...
DSC00422

Or this is wantan mee? I'm confused nao. .___.
But I personally like the noodles.
DSC00423

Aftermath. You could tell how satisfied we were towards the food. Boyfie whacked 2 plates of chee-cheong fun, share half of his aunty's noodle and eat up all the fried food! He's a monster I swear.
DSC00424


And so we went around golden triangle area doing last minute shopping before we head back Penang. Ended up, we ate more than we shopped. Bought Carl's Junior & some junkies from The Loaf to cure our sweet tooth.

Choco puff that makes me go CRAZY!And no I'm not sharing with anyone!I'm eating this myself! HAHAHA. I love how the not-so-sweet chocolate melt in my mouth. Mmmm.. HEAVEN! I always prefer bitter chocolate.
DSC00436

A must at The Loaf. Uhuhu cheesecake in tiny little pretty cups. Imma happy girl.
DSC00437

As a conclusion, The Loaf should open a branch at Penang already. :/

I must be insane for doing this post in the middle of the night. I gotta get to bed before I get hungry haha! I promise I'll blog about hometown goodies in the next post. CAUTION: Keep your tummy full before you start reading babes! :)



Okay bye! Peace out x.

DG x Alesso Partayy!

♥Love & To Be Loved

Morning morning. I'm up to blog & to catch my HK drama. Someone just gotta show me where to watch online-streaming American drama :( I miss gossip girls, pretty little liars, 90210 & fringe.

caryneDSC006292

Ah how I love my lovely morning back at home. I love my Penang home but most of the time (weekends)  I was home alone because housemates were too busy hanging out or attending class or working part times. But we still try our best to make times for our housemates-get-together and hang-outs, which is superbly AWESOME haha!

And being at hometown, I don't have to be annoyed of what-to-eat for every freaking meals. Once I wakeup & open my eyes, I'll find my fave breakkie on the table & all my fave dishes during lunch & dinner! Feel loved. :3

Moving on, I used to go on road trips/short getaways awfully a lot. And I can’t believe I’m stuck in island for like few months without getting my ass anywhere else. Ah I just miss going on a road trip/short getaways spontaneously. So, David Guetta live in M’sia on 12/Oct just gave me a huge excuse to have a weekend getaway at Kayelle. I was so thrilled that I get to shop like crazy & I get to see my Alesso! 
Speaking of the DG party, it was mind-blowing! I had so much of fun and I can’t believe I saw ALESSO & DAVID GUETTA LIVE, JUST RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY EYES! SO INCREDIBLY UNREALLLL OMGGG! And to held it in Sepang International Circuit, other than the fact that its way too far from the city and that it was so isolated, I think it has the perfect spacious areas for the massive crowds.

Road trip yayy!
CARYNE02

Loveryboy went out to get us some food for the long night while I getting myself dolled up & selca!
And yes, I was in my comfy Nike dri-fit huge tee. It's my pajama actually haha!I always have the habit of doing my makeup & hair in comfy house-wear and only change ma outfit the moment before I head out.

There goes the night that we looked forward so much. I'm so glad we decided to go. I'd regret badly cause the party was amazingly overwhelming. 

I'm gonna blog about the irresistable food I had during this short trip. Better don't read it if you're empty stomach loves hehe!

Peace out x.

Ted the evil teddy. >:]

♥Love & To Be Loved

Hola loves. My long-working hour job with overloaded new job allocations drives me insane. I feel awfully tensed & I feel like I can barely able to breath. I really wish I could take a short break, and have a short getaway at somewhere chilling. Someone should just say yes and go with me, no? :/

It's really frustrated that everything's not going well for myself. October, why can't you be good to me? :( I started to feel like I need some changes in my work,that I need something more flexible. My friendships are not in a good stake right now, like everyone just showed their true colors. Betrayal, MIA, you name it. It was pretty heartbreaking consider that I'm one that treasure friendships. Not to mention my so-called relationship is in a BIG MESS. I just don't get it why is it so hard to find someone that truly care and adore you. Why is it so hard to just fall in love without any worries & just let yourself being pampered. Just spare me some drama, thats the least thing I need right now. Now that October has come to an end, I'm praying hard that November will be exceptionally nice to me. Pretty please?

But they said some people are meant to be passerby in your life, gave u a lesson & chao; while some destined to stay, those who are supportive & always be there at your worst. True that true that. And all this while, I've lost some of my precious girlfriends idk why but I've got this 2 lovely ladies came into my life. Knowing them is really fate. really. I mean 3 of us don't know each others, all from different states, different schools, different colleges. But surprisingly, we have so much in commons after days of getting together!And I'm introducing you all, my fave housemates ever. (: I just gotta let you girls know, I love both of you so much. This is like my 2nd home hence my 2nd family. I never felt this way before. Being away from my own home, but still feel like I'm home. Okay, I'm having goosebumps right now haha! Such a shame that I dont have their pictures right now but I PROMISE I'll show you all their beautiful pictures really soon aite? :)

Bytheway, I've watched Ted and it was unexpectedly hilarious!I want the teddy bear alsooo! So the plot of the story is like romance vs bromance. well I've gotta say at some points the jokes are offensive, raunchy & crude, but hey I laughed so hard I thought I couldn't stop inside the cinema haha. Frankly, I don't think I'd tolerate a irresponsible boyfriend like Lori did. But good for her, he did changed in the end. YOU GUYS SHOULD REALLY WATCH IT!I PROMISE YOU WON'T REGRET I SWEAR! :D I don't mind watching it for 2nd time I think this is the best comedy so far.

Yours truly.

Tinkerbell x Eiffel tower x Pisces x Keytomyheart

♥Love & To Be Loved
 


Hello October!

I’M LATE I KNOW. It’s already mid of October! Time flies like crazy!
I’ve got this new baby that explains my urge to blog again. Heh heh. So don’t be too surprise if I’m gone MIA again like I always do. I love love LOVE this new gadget I can’t stop snapping all around on every single thing. I’m such a lazy person and this baby works superb for me. Everything is in auto so I don't have any difficulty in getting a nice picture. As for the price, I know I could get a nice DSLR instead. But I understand myself, I don't think I’d carry a huge bulky DSLR around whenever I’m going for a trip / for a hangout with ma girls. I’m sucha lazy bum :(
 
As a conclusion, this baby, comes in an easily fitting inside a shirt pocket/clutch/handbags size, impressively features LARGER sensor, which is able to perform ALMOST the same outcome as DSLR, no doubt, is the perfect option for me.

Btw, just to share about this really cute charm bracelet stall I’ve found just in front of Gurney GSC. Most of the girls are pretty crazy over charm bracelet, let it be Thomas Sabo Pandora Tiff&Co or etc, I found this pretty interesting as well. And it doesn't cost a bomb. 10bucks, and you could get yourself a charm bracelet inclusive 4 charms on your choice. Well, I got myself one of this cute thingy as well.

#1 Welcome


#2 Necklace
 

#3 The charm bracelet I've been talking about.
 

#4 You could get yourself some customized keychain as well.


#5 Zodiac bracelet.


I always have the perception of knowing someone's attitude/preferences/dreams through her charm bracelet. Its like something customized based on her characteristics.

As for mine: 
Tinkerbell - feisty & hot-tempered, fly free (freedom), go for my dream & love.
Eiffel tower - I dream of falling in love in Paris. L'amour.
Pisces - Defines me. Intuitive.
Key - To my heartlock. That one loverboy, my soulmate.

So do you think you know me? :)
Please do share me about your charms. I'd love to guess your characteristics/dreams.

#6


#7 Yours truly.
 


Peace out x.

Chaos.

♥Love & To Be Loved

Gahhh! I'm having ma 2 weeks mandate leaves right now & I don't even feel excited. How can that beeeee! I mean c'mon, where am I supposed to go holiday with when all my babes are either studying or working! OHMIGAWD this is so not happening.

Anyway, enough with the whines, I'm pretty confused with this complicated relationship and sometimes I don't really know what to do. Due to some past cases that I can't let go of, it's really become the barrier of us being THERE you know. It's always feel like so near yet so far. Its like we've gone this far but we're stuck. Things go on and off, good and bad, and this kinda drive me/him/us crazy.

I don't even know is it my problem being childish or it is normal that I can't help it but thinking those conversations he&her having. How he said he missed her or how he worried/agitated when she ignored him or how happy he was that she's coming back to town that they plan to meet up or how he texted her everyday&immediately but not me. Or flirting with another her, the urge to get to know everything about her, the same time having conversation with me and her, but replying me with a few cold words, but hers? all those sweet talks. THOSE sweet talks that both of us USED TO HAVE. The sweet sarcastic words they told each others in FB because they bumped into each others in college but never say HI. All these craps when we were in a relationship. It freaked me out, THIS freaked me out. it's just feel like... He loves her or her.

All these conversations. All these girls. And those lovely posts she wrote for you. They're stuck in my brain. I cursed them. I can't tell how much I loathe them. I even WISH so badly they could just rot in hell. Or better still, I'm praying SO HARD that they'd just face the exact same shit. And being exact paranoid like me RIGHT NOW.

Guide me pls. Anyone? :(

I just wanna be happy.
Yours truly.
