going chiffon

the weather now is freaking hot. i’d say it’s made for the chiffon trend.

why?

before i decided to pack, i saw alot of chiffon stuff going on, chiffon/sheer blazer, dresses,tops..

so for the recent trip, i decided to go with chiffon when i pack.

 

first look was for the mall, (air conditioned)

 

 

light and sheer cover on top, paired with leggings.

and this, was to meet the babes,

 

 

one is my crazy group mate, and another is my travel mate

yup, travel mate, can you believe that??

we can talk non-stop when we’re in the train/bus to campus!

 

as for the second outfit, coz we’re going for the outdoor so i picked a short combi.

 

 

 

 

more like this:

 

 

love this picture on the observation deck so much! haha!

 

so.. who else is going chiffon?

The opportunity

uh,to wear layered outfits for chilly weather.

um, yea.

you know how girls in snowing regions always long to wear spring/summer outfits, and girls in tropical (say,warm) regions always long to wear autumn/winter outfits?

okay maybe not.

whatever.

but , still,

got my chance to layer up anyway. =D

so for the first outfit i got the usual t-shirt and jeans and load up with a shawl and puff-sleeved cardi.

 

(oh and finally got the cute glove for my cold hands. it was almost freezing!)

have to say that i love the Theme Park Hotel for the chic and simple design. (tho i heard Maxims is the most luxurious)

love to have the option of hand held shower(hate overhead shower when you dont wanna wet your hair,at all)

and the spacious bathroom countertop to lay out our (okay, i mean ‘my’ ) tools too!(uh, not to forget the large mirror!)

 

as we arrived early and dont have pretty much interesting stuff to do up on the highland(except shopping and gamble), i used up almost all the time to dress up. tsk.

 

chosed this denim bustier dress,armed myself with the puff-sleeved cardi and black leggings. (and shawl,just in case)

 

almost all set to go to the Jan Lamb ‘Something Scary’ Standup Comedy show when i found the zip is faulty. =_____=

ah but i modified it just in time.

 

love love love the Jan Lamb show!

 

the next day ,chosed this striped dress and paired with leggings (and shawl) for the walk-around.

 

 

think it’d be much cooler with a leather jacket..speaking of which………………..

 

anyway.

 

i also saw some uber cute and warm wool jackets while we’re window shopping! but it was way out of my budget. *sigh*

 

and it’s not like im gonna wear it unless i have more chilly trips.

ha!

 

p/s: would love to have more chilly trips!

That’s life! <3

so,

when people have ‘jet lag’, i have ‘trip lag’..=_=

still feels so tired.. T_T

gargh!!!!!~~~~~

*fighting the urge to sleep*

the thing is, i cant believe my trusty shopping bag was full just after a lil more than an hour..*gasp*

 

can say that times square is my heaven ,LOL..

the only down point was i had to change into my spare flat coz the newly bought heels was too much for me to bear in a shopping trip..

 

a good thing i decided to bring along my spare flat..=0

 

ah but it’s all worth it!!

 

look at ‘em:

will do a separate post on these soon! =D

 

 

 

 

  

 

also had a great time meeting up with my babe yunyi!

 

awwwww..just love her sooooo much!

 

not forgetting the family

 

 

but yea i know tiredness has crawled up to my face..T_____T

note to self: shall do the masks tonight!

 

 

 

oh and by the way, loving the restaurant Fu Tien now! so if you’re near the Ipoh Bestari area, do give it a try (and it’s vegetarian!)

[again , that tired look before nom-ing T_T]

 

 

 

speaking of nom-ing, got this sample of Julie’s Oat 25 ,One Million Packs of Love (think it’s strawberry and oats)

NICE! =D

this is ..erm..nom-ed in the car on the way out..coz too hungry..T_T

 

*sigh* trip-lag huh..

 

ok tomorrow’s task is calling..

*recharge energy* =_=x

Visitor!

one of my babes came!

jeng jeng!

 

(stole from her FB HAHAHAHAHA coz accidentally deleted the one in my phone =.=)

 

and i welcomed her with these outfits LOL..

 

what do you think about ‘em? (that poor necklace broke while we visit the train station! sad max! > __ < )

 

alright anyway, she came with her grandma so i treated them the salt-roasted chicken (yea that’d be more exact) nice?=D

 

we then went to the train station at the old town area..which is basically where you see the colonial buildings..photos are still with her

 

then after a failed attempt to get another salt-roasted chicken for her grandma to bring home,(sorry!) we sent her off at the bus station before we continued to the famous snack place under a big tree – it’s the soya skin-wrapped turnip snacks that goes with the noodles..but we only take the snacks as we’re still quite full..this is a specialty in this place and it is so crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside..yum! =D (right babe?)

 

we then went to Jusco and De Garden, girls being girls, we bought some stuff..haha..

 

and then a missed turning led me to bring her to Tanjung Rambutan and Tambun for more sight-seeing

 

and well, i dont know what happened but, we didnt manage to ride a horse..yaiks.. [according to her, Ipoh has alot of private hospitals, Public Bank, and Horses! ROFL XD ]

 

and we went home to bath and prepare for the focus of the night-

the Bean Sprout and Chicken!! and that was so yummy and we were stuffed! (coz we had half a chicken,i think..and a plate of bean sprout and also the pork balls) think you have to bare with the staff’s proud attitude eating there tho..people famous mah!=_=x

 

another round of shopping at the local specialties shop follows, then.

and thanks to me! she saved money from buying irrelevant stuff LOL..XD (am i not good??)

 

and when we’re home, the true girl's’ night started! what do you expect? it’s chic-lit (Sophie Kinsella’s Mini Shopaholic) + chic-lit movie (The Ugly Truth) + gossips! nyahahahahaha!

 

morning started off quite late and we went to the Lost World of Tambun..and i’ll tell you,that they have..

YUCKY FOOD AND RUDE SERVICE AT THE EATERY! =__=

so we went around searching for dry activities coz didnt wanna get wet and sunburned..

ended up we had a mini cave (yup another specialty of Ipoh),Petting Zoo, Hot Spring (starting to sound like all-in-one right?) alright another mini Zoo, excluded the pools, and expedition trails(have to pay more for this!)

for RM38..it’s alright i guess? but fill your stomach first before going in.

 

then to Ipoh Parade we went and hunted for some cheap stuff. ended up me getting a New Headway Beginner’s Student’s Book and Teacher’s Book (and another activity book)..who with a sane mind would sell such precious material to a second hand bookstore?! =_= but still i got it..you always have to diggggg to find treasures in the second hand shop, no?

 

and off we go to get the egg tarts at old town but..ah..sold out..=_= so got her the chicken puff..(sorry again!)

 

and we said goodbye =(

 

sorry im a not-so-good host!! =( the next time you pass by tell me earlier and i’ll get you the salt-roasted chicken and bean sprout!

The Tour Guide..

so on friday night, i went to book the crab dish (yea no kidding here,save that for later) and went ahead to meet Ah Shing @ the hotel..

while we were catching up, i was told that they need a tour guide the next day..so i was like: OK no prob.

and boy what a ‘tour’ it was.

so i pumped the petrol then went home and google-mapped all the routes til midnight then forced myself to sleep.

yesterday morning i woke up at 5am and did the routine. departed by 6+ to pick them up for Dim Sum. but we only head out by 7+. and damn, as an Ipohan i cant figure the route to Foh San initially. =_=” coz getting in the driver seat and sensing location/direction while walking are two different things..all things got complicated..im so sorry!!

So anyway, i brought them to Foh San and we were so lucky as the up stairs’ has just opened, which means we get a table right away!

as i told Ah Shing,i settled all my cravings of the prawn noodle rolls,the prawn and scallop dumplings,and the fried prawn rolls. (same to the maggi and burger and stuff i was craving for this week. OMG what has this become.)

do you sense all those PRAWNS?? woohoo!! (and this will relate to my dinner last night!)

by 9+,we went back and checked out after the lot did crazy shots in the room..XD and you just have to praise me for my years of Paparazo-us skill to capture these:

Ah Shing!

oh that’s Bryan(Bosco!),Kimberly and Ah Te =D say Hi!

LOL..

we went ahead for Perak Cave Temple (just one of the many in the mountainous Ipoh)..then one smooth route all the way there..

and what we did there was just beyond my own expectation. all of us prayed, climbed (YES.), and DINED!! we got free tea and porridge from the caretaker auntie there. so it was like, so holistic and bla bla bla LOL..(by this time my battery is 50% drained out. so, thanks to the porridge!)

[oh and Kimberly?no worries! you’ll see the path eventually! =) ]

we went along the long Jln KK to the Perak Museum, and all the way down to the Old Town area. (once again i parked so far off the spot. =_____= )

since all were not hungry yet, we stopped by the Kinta River for more shots then proceed to ease the heat @ a restaurant my bro once brought me. i was hungry by then so i ate. they all got the egg tarts as the tarts were just fresh out of the oven.

we decided to go to Ipoh Parade but we ended up jammed in search of a parking lot.=_=”

in the midst of walking Bryan(Bosco!) told me some guy was ‘admiring’ me. =_____=” i was all covered up under the air-cond,plus i had my spect on without makeup..ha..i have no idea who and why. coz if it was someone i know,i should’ve got a missed call.

anyway sent them off earlier than the designated time to settle the tickets and wait for the train earlier.

by the time i was home my braind shut off and i cleared my hand bag,the clothes plus bathed all robotic-ally. (absent-minded-ly) =__=

i practically had to pull myself up for dinner.

and thaaaaat’s when i sense what Ah Shing told me on the way to the train station.

coz when i went to the restaurant enquiring for my booked crab dish,my brain suddenly registered it as something i booked days ago when i just booked it the night before!! =__=

ah but all nice with the crab tang hoon and clams..YUM!!!!!

cost us RM50 for the crab tang hoon and RM15 for the clams..but very nice la..

after that i dropped dead on the bed. =_____=”

but then i did wake up.that’s how you see this post.

thanks.
