Baby bear

Last Saturday, my cousin sister's grandson turns 1 year old( yes, you didn't read wrongly it's grandson). The little boy's mummy baked a pretty cake with characters from Winnie the Pooh on it. And baked some other cookies for the guests to take home.

I took this cute bear with smudged nose cookie. There's another really cute one which is baby's clothes.

This little boy is really lucky. Can see that he receives LOTSSS of love from his family.

The other day I walked past the organic snacks section in the supermarket and saw a whole lot of organic korean snacks. They are quite pricey.

Anyway, bought a cheese-flavoured snack to try.

Year 2 final results

The results are fine and this concluded Year 2 of the course.
What's next?
Buying air ticket to UK and visa application.
Gahh...the time for packing is gonna come real soon.

And I need to renew my IC. bored.

A visit to the palace

It's common to visit palaces if you have ever been to countries like China or Korea. But, never once visited own country's palace. Because before this we can never pass beyond the gate. The most you can do is snap some photos in front of the gate.

 The gate minus the usual guards and horses

For the past month or so(up til yesterday) the palace is open for visits since now the King is no longer staying there. He shifted to a new 'house'. hehe

I found the time to go 2 days ago to at least take a look. Only part of it is open for exhibition I guess. Nothing fancy. Can't really tell that it's a palace actually. A bit disappointed. Maybe I expected too much?

The lamp post looks quite nice. haha

Suddenly, my parents decided to go to the temple in Broga (near uni). The last time I was there is when I was little.

When I saw this old man fishing, I knew I had a picture here. But turns out he changed his clothes and became younger (grey hair instead of white hair).

This is what I meant when I said 'little'.

Kang San Ea

Dinner in Ampang koreatown with my family. yay! It's their first time there while I've been there countless times. Tried a different restaurant from usual - Kang San Ea.We were there early so, there was no other customer except for us.

It's my 1st time seeing such a wrapping for a spoon. Just like a lollipop. hehe

  

The 100 plus my dad ordered comes with a really huge glass.

 Honey ginseng tea which my mum ordered. Can't really taste the ginseng though. RM6.

Green tea for me and my brother. Korean green tea has that rice taste. I like it. RM5.

 That's 1 serving of samgyupsal (pork belly). We ordered two servings. RM25 per serving. And we ordered kimchi jiggae (not sure whether it comes with a bowl of rice). RM17.

 Dolsot bibimpap. Quite big portion. RM17.

This patbingsu (red bean shaved ice) is FREE! They are so generous for giving such a big bowl. And not 1 but 2 bowls! Shaved ice like this could possibly cost up to RM8 (but of course it's not worth that much)

The korean guy who took our order (I think he's the owner) can speak Mandarin.

 The food here are not too pricey. Or is it my family members are small eater?

Went to Korean mart again after dinner. It's on the same row of shops. Can never miss going there during my visits to koreatown.

Levain boulangerie & patisserie

Finally tried the food here yesterday. Such a shame to not have been here when even coursemates from other states have been there. Not that I don't know about the place, just didn't find the time to go.

 

This is how it looks like from outside.

 The area where the bread are placed.

 Mentaiko(fish roe) bread, apple crumble pie(?) and Chocolate crunch

 Strawberry & banana danish, tiramisu and banana muffin

These 6 items cost RM30 altogether. The food are nice. Not too sweet (which I expect it to be but don't want it to be).

Watched Madagascar 3 in Pavilion. It's quite nice. The 'Afro Circus' song is so funny and it gets stuck in my head. You'll know what I mean if you have watched it. I don't remember what the past 2 movies are about.

 Chicken Teriyaki rice from Ichiban Boshi for dinner.

Love these mochis from Mochi Sweets.

Clockwise: Chestnut cream, Strawberry, Green Tea, Black chocolate, Peach, Japanese purple potato

My mum actually thought one mochi was missing. Racist. hahaha 

4 November 2011 - the moment we decided to try this...

This what? This weird ice cream which allows you to peel the outer jelly-like layer like how you peel a banana. Bought it from the 7-eleven in uni.

 This is how you should peel it. Learn from me. haha

7 October 2011 - Woo Jin's birthday

Haven't been writing anything much bout the 2nd academic year. First off I'll start with this korean chingu, Woo Jin's 20th (or should I say 21st) birthday. We had a simple celebration in a korean restaurant in Ampang where Hae Min's mum used to work in.

Back in time

Summer break. Suddenly feels like picking up from where I left off after a 6 months hiatus. I will probably try my best to update about the events (moments worth remembering) in the past 6 months. Can only remember based on the photos I have collected so far.

Basically all these posts are more for me to see than for others to see.
