Johnny Rockets Malaysia

Greetings, I do realize that I've been absent for over a month, I sincerely apologize for that (I say this every time lol) After the much awaited opening of Johnny Rockets Malaysia over at The Curve, I had a chance to dine in this American diner restaurant early November.

As me, along with another 3 friends of mine, marched to the direction of Johnny Rockets, we were greeted by a long line of customers waiting for their turn. It was early 7pm so I put my name in the waiting list and wandered around the mall as we wait for our turn. Finally about 8.30 or so, we got a seat inside the restaurant (we were worried if we get the seats outside the restaurant D: )

Corporate Social Responsibility Event - Giving Back to Society

So yesterday, my school (SuwayTES) organized a CSR event. It's a chance for the students to engage with the needy people. Initially I was contemplating whether to join or not as I have a class on that day itself. Luckily my lecturer promised that she'll find a replacement class for us lot, so...okay!

Upon arrival at the hall, we registered ourselves, got to know our bus number and team number (code named as HOME). Luckily enough, I was teamed together with Nala! (Sorry Chermaine QAQ). Each HOME was assigned to different tasks, I heard one of it was to organize books at a local library. Sounds interesting enough! I love the smell of books, however, my group was assigned to visit a Rumah Cacat Akal (Mentally Disabled Home). Although feeling a bit disappointed, but I look forward to it as it was my first time visiting a home such as this. Previously I only visited Old Folks' Home back in Melaka.

They provided breakfast for us. And it was a whopping huge pack of Nasi Lemak. It also had sotong cili as a side dish, talk about a heavy breakfast indeed. But it was fulfilling XD Not only that, they also gave us a mask, and also one glove (note : not gloves, but glove).

Nuffnang Food Fest

So me the girls (..and 1 guy) decided to attend the Nuffnang Food Fest on the 5th of October 2013 at Sunway Pyramid. I first noticed this event via Facebook, the concept of 'eat for free' is of course very enticing to us university students. A little planning and some rescheduling, all of us managed to make our Saturday free and ready for the food fest!

We all decided to go a tad bit earlier, so I first met up with Chermaine at our uni roughly about 3pm. Somehow the others were late so the both of us went ahead first.

Of Coffee and Ensembles

Konnichiwa! Have been updating VocaParty lately but not my own personal blog, oppsie. So here goes! I have a few backlogs to clear so I'll start motivating myself with karipaps somehow.

A couple of weeks ago I was walking around Isetan's food section at KLCC. Then an aunty came over to me and called me out to promote something fairly interesting.

It's an instant coffee, but not-so-instant at the same time.

AniManGaki 2013

Ready for a long post? :D Well, now that AMG is over, I feel a wee bit empty inside. But look at the bright side, I'm back into Vocaloid, and I have time for my studies! 

AniManGaki 2013 was a yet another great experience for me. Learnt about more stuffs regarding event management. This is my 2nd year in the community. Took up more tasks than I'm supposed to handle though.

Medan, Indonesia, Day 3

Woke up early in the morning on Day 3 to visit a temple! A little detour from our original itinerary :)

Medan, Indonesia, Day 2

Hello! It's been awhile since my last post, thousand apologies for that as I was pretty busy with studies, AniManGaki and some drama in between (lol). Well, here's the Day 2 of my trip to Medan! :D

We went over to Berastagi (I think, lol) to visit a small town, some historical places and a waterfall!

On the boat in the morning! Because we're at higher grounds, it was freezing cold as the wind hit our skin >_<. Though it's great passing through the waters of Lake Toba.

Medan, Indonesia, Day 1

So my whole family went for a vacation last week to our neighbouring country, Indonesia. Well, we booked the tour before the haze hit Malaysia, it's not like we deliberately wanted to escape the haze :P Haha, but anyways, Medan's air is actually much fresher than Malaysia. You can say that there's no haze at all. 

We reached Medan's airport at approximately 10.00am (Medan time, Malaysia is one hour faster). And was quite shocked when the tour guide/driver said that he'd bring us for lunch. at 10.00am?! Not long later only we understand why the rush. The roads in Indonesia are very small. (Read : Very) There's only 1 lane roads and the amount of cars and motorcycles are amazing. As you know, Indonesia is one of the highly populated countries around the world. It actually took 2 hours just to get to our restaurant lol.

After satisfying ourselves with Minang Melayu (Malay cuisine) at Simpang Tiga, one of the more famous restaurants there, we head off to a 4 hour road trip to our destination for the day, Lake Toba. Lake Toba was what used to be a super volcano and had the largest eruption ever known. It is not a volcano anymore, but thanks to the huge eruption, it turned into a lake! It's the largest volcanic lake in the world. How big is this lake? As big as Singapore, well, used to, until Singapore embanked some land and ended up becoming bigger than Lake Toba. Here's a random picture that I took.

Blackout!

With the recent Malaysian 13th General Election causing a stir among us youngsters with all the potential frauds that occurred, all the black out black out! parodies. It's getting fascinating, heh.

and well, the power supply at my hostel decided to join in the fun too! By giving us a 4 hour black out on one fine Tuesday.

Well, all's good, luckily my housemate with their smartphones have these fancy torchlight apps in it. I'm using an old phone (aka stupidphone lol) so yeah. 

Decided to go out to university and hangout until the power comes back. It only came back at about 11pm+ though, and I was already fast asleep in my room lol, I didn't even realize power came back lmao.

Here's a funny parody made by Malaysian Youtuber, Dan Khoo

And with that, I shall end my nonsensical post. Exam is approaching, specifically in two weeks' time. I'm stressed out and whatnot, but I'll do my best. 

Nendroid Lily from Anim.o.v.e

*Ba Dum Tss*

I have finally received my long awaited nendroid, Lily, from Anim.o.v.e.! Decided to a very brief/short review, well, I'm not really sure how to do figure reviews since...I only own two nendroids and a couple of nendroid puchis LOL, plus, my camera isn't really good enough to focus on the details of D:

But welp, here goes!

Burgertory Experience

So one fine day, me and my brother decided to go Ss15 to find dinner, in fact, we were looking around for Crayon Burger, while swirling around Ss15, as we passed by the row of shops, I noticed a fine looking burger sign on the top floor of a building. It pique my interest as it stated 'Burgertory'

I immediately told my brother about it, he took an interest to it too, since the both of us have went to myBurger Lab. And off we go, my brother found a nice parking space, got off the car and started off to Burgertory.

Burgertory Facebook fan page : http://www.facebook.com/Burgertory

The entrance to their store looks fancy too!

First my Burger Lab Experience

The long awaited trip to myBurgerLab!! It was definitely a great outing since I went with him XD

What's BurgerLab?

So, on a fine Saturday, we arrived at 5pm, right on time when the shop just opened. Stood in line, waited for our turn. I was kind of shy to take photos, thus the amount of photos is just sad lol...

And here's a photo of my black burger! XD

 

Post CNY?

I've been neglecting my blog. I'm sorry!! Life is good, for now at least. Well, CNY is coming to an end, and I'm back to my university, studying, but at least life's good with JHan by my side! :3

Let's have a look at the new goodies in hand! Thanks to my friend who went to Japan and got these souvenirs, such a kind guy!

I'm the lucky one who got the special sticker. Bwahahah!

The start of a new month

A lot has happened in the month of January, but all's good! I survived the first hellish month of my ACCA sem 2! 

So after our first round of exams for this sem we decided to celebrate with a bang. We went to IKEA's on Thursday and had awesome meatballs.

Glorious meatballs

So, after the meal we decided to take a stroll around IKEA, as usual XD

Happy New Year...?

明けましておめでとうございます m(_ _)m A very late happy new year wish from me. And for that, I'm truly sorry for not updating this blog. It's new year's so let's enjoy it the Japanese way, with toshikoshi soba! Well, I can't make anything decent because lack of kitchen equipment and ingredients, so just a simple soba. I don't even have a proper soba cup, so my drinking cup will have to do the trick orz

What are my resolutions for this year?

1. Eat more karipaps.
2. Get better in my studies.
3. Meet new people.
4. Work hard to make the Vocaloid community grow in Malaysia.
5. Also work harder in AniManGaki!
6. Karipaps....
7. Coffee.......

*cough* I don't know, I'm not the person who writes resolutions and stuff. I'll just do my best in everything I come across >w<

Christmas at Portuguese Settlement 2012

Hello folks! An early Merry Christmas to you all! As a Malaccan myself, of course, when you talk about Christmas, the first thing that pops up is Portuguese Settlement! I went on a weekend this time, at 11pm too lol. It was all for the sake of avoiding traffic jams...Malacca's traffic is getting more and more terrible >.> And well, I did not make it to the platform like last year. Mom and dad wanted to head back home since it was late D: I didn't even get to taste Portuguese food too...T^T

Tamayaki (Takoyaki jyanai yo!)

So there's this new shop at Sunway Pyramid, Tamayaki and decided to give it a try since I'm a fan of takoyaki. Upon close inspection of the shop's mascot...It looks similar to a certain character from Taiko no Ta---/bricked. 

'kay let's leave that aside and move along~ ww

Recent Happenings & Upcoming Exams

こんにちは！It's been a real long while since my last post. I was busy, like studying, reading novels, surfing NicoNicoDouga...*cough*

Anyway, tomorrow, I shall face my finals for this semester. Nervous? Not really. Confident? NOPE! lol. I'm so used to facing 'finals' every month I just don't react much to the real finals anymore lol. Anyway, a quick update on stuffs.

And so I missed AFASG 2012, but my friends from the anime club brought back souvenirs for me! Aww, that's so sweet of them :3

And they know exactly what I like! Yay! Addition to my Kuroko no Basket items! Damn, Kuroko is just too cute *w* And #2 Kuroko, hhngghhhhhhhh

Well, other than that, A few months back, I asked my friend to help me pick up copy of Kagerou Days vol. 2 light novel from Kinokuniya. Yay! Received the book from him last month and finished reading it within a week LOL

Sadly, I haven't read Kagerou Days vol. 1 yet lol. On the day I went for the FF Distant Worlds concert, I dropped by Kinokuniya to enquire about it. Apparently vol. 1 of Kagerou Days is out of print so I can't even make a pre-order T^T Hope there's another printing for this...*fingers crossed*

Kagerou Days vol. 2 review? Hmm, it was an a-okay novel. I wouldn't say it's one of the best out there, but it definitely made me so eager to read it everyday lol. I'd give it an 8 out of 10. Well, maybe my horrible Japanese is at fault lol. But hey! At least I get to read light novels now, that's an achievement! XD

Oh and, look what we have here.....

I got myself a Maimai card together with Han Bing. orz I'm addicted to maimai arcade lol! It's so fun *w* And plus, there's Vocaloid songs in it! Can't wait to unlock more songs though, and hopefully the ones at Pyramid will get updated with the latest songs, there's an 'Extend' category newly released but I don't see it >3<

For those who wonder what's maimai,

Thanks for the link Han Bing!

A picture of green tea kit kat that was taken 2 months ago, totally forgotten to upload it lol. Anyway, Yui bought it for me when we went out for dinner at 1U. Damn, this thing is delicious, though not as much as coffee and karipaps though ^p^

Well, my exam will end in the next 2 weeks. So, I shall attempt to disappear from the Internet world. (Read : Attempt) I name it,

The Disappearance of Reigan Eventine.

Dave's Bistro Bar Grill

And so my waifu, Yui, (in Sun-U Anime Club, we have a family tree, and apparently I'm a guy and Yui is my waifu lol) invited me to go to 1 Utama to try out Dave's Bistro Bar Grill, where everything on the menu is pork. I kind of regretted a bit going there, the bill was very shocking @.@

We ordered one whole lot pizza (it's a 50cm pizza), one Cream Sauce Ham, Bacon and Mushroom pasta and one Cookies and Cream Milkshake.

Let me brag about my achievements for once.

I can be shameless at times. And I guess now's the time.

My third piece for my ABRSM Grade 8th practical piano exam. Scored 29 out of 30. In total, I scored 122 out of 150, achieving a merit for my exam.
