Come take a peek into my room? My new home! From West rez to the South here I come!

June 12, 2011 by thejessicat

 

Okay time for you to see yet another one of my places of residence again!

There's this nitty-gritty OCD part of me that loves a well-decorated, personalized, neat and organized room.

 

Most of the time, I'm very proud to let you guys take a look! Well, the efforts that I take to make my room pretty & cosy; one that truly represents me does pay off especially when I have guests over *bigwidesmile*

Remember when I showed you my house and room in this post and another one in this post?

 

Are u ready? Knock before you enter my room! 🙂

Oh and remember I painted that canvas on the top?

 

Most of you know that I live on-campus or more fondly referred to as 'on rez' (residencies) at the moment.

I was allocated to be on the West rez 32 when I first came to Australia, but since I spent 90% of my time and day in the South rez, I've decided to just permanently move into South rez 9.

 

Nicey? 😀 😀

 

Most of the time, my room/house will be splashed &decorated by reds every where.

I often adopt a red theme wherever I stay, but since I didn't have much choice (all my red stuff are in Malaysia!) my room – for the first time – picked up a blue theme instead :( Blue curtains, blue comforter, blue bedsheets, blue pillowcase.. etc. ;(

 

My simplistic wardrobe. I hung up my accessories on the wardrobe

door (so they don't become tangled noodles when I wanna wear 'em!)

 

Seriously, I've spent almost an hour trying to detangle my necklaces/chokers before, causing myself to be uber late at certain events I go to! Grrr. Next time my accessories only stay hung up – no where else!

 

Another angle of my room. Can you see my shoe shelf?

 

Take a closer look 😀 😀 I dreaded how I had to choose between all my shoes to pack into my luggage.

Mom wouldn't let me bring more than FOUR, I was crestfallen! How am I supposed to choose 4 out of my 30 pairs? 🙁

 

I eventually sneaked in more than 4 and ended up succumbing to more pretty shoes here

I bought 5 more. Ooops. Sorry mom. 😛

 

Probably not important, but here's the insides of my cupboard.

 

Facial stuff, make up and clothes.

On to my study table! Where I'm sitting as we speak, supposedly mugging for the exams but can't help to take a short break to blog for a while. Nyahahaha 😛

 

What do you see?

 

My camera gear, a pair of red sunnies, a red shark, an infographic on cannabis, my textbooks, the Greek alphabet, cute postcards, a bottle of memories, a frisbee, leopard-print handcuffs, random train tickets, bus ticket-stubs, tissue, a food pyramid, Churchill's bus timetable and little love notes! Do you spot everything?

 

Okay, one more picture for the road!

Here's a diagonally aerial view of my room 🙂

 

Nice nice nice? *beams* I love decorating!

 

Okay I should really head back to my exam revisions now.

Cheers! And if your room isn't half as neat as mine, you know what to do 😛

My favorite place to chill! Shisha Lounge at Solaris Mont Kiara, KL

March 11, 2011 by thejessicat

 

You know how annoying it is when you are in a mamak food store, suddenly a whole whoosh of pungent smoke comes directly towards your meal and into your face?

Well honestly, I find it utterly rude and unhygienic.

 

Blow it vertically, because smoke travels upwards! 🙂

Sorry, I don’t look forward to having other people’s gunk of smoke and respiratory particles into my dinner thank you very much. I know how it’s like on the receiving end; hence I certainly do try to avoid blowing in people’s direction.

Another reason why I despise shisha-ing at mamak stores, it’s super uncomfy sitting on stiff chairs or stools anyway.

 

One night, my prayers were answered.

 

I found an awesome chilling place to shisha!

What’s also fab is that it has really nice view (especially at night!) behind you as you chill.

Pretty damn windy up here too, as it is located on the higher floor

 

It’s so comfy!

Ya get to lean back or lie down enjoying your hookah all to yourself or with your friends.

No more sitting upright on steel chairs with your food in mamak stores

 

Teaching buddy Kelly how to shisha 🙂

She’s a real fast learner. Good on ya!

We drank some cocktails and fruit juices but our tummies were growling as the night went on

Time for food!

 

We were served Chicken and Beef Kebab

I’m pretty big on kebabs so I was really looking forward to how this one tastes like.

Middle Eastern food FTW!

 

My verdict? I loved it… and so did Kelly. The meat was really tender and flavorful 🙂

You can have it with rice or with bread, we picked the latter. It was warm and yummeh

 

On the menu, it is either Chicken Kebab or Beef Kebab 🙂

Don’t be afraid to ask for a 2-in-1 like we did if you can’t decide which satisfies your tastebuds better


Whilst eating, I spotted a familiar face. Bumped into a hometown friend, Arvind 🙂

He was with a group of friends and apparently there were a lot of pubs/bars in this building too.

 

No wonder it’s so happening!

 

 

He used to date my best friend and we happened to go to the same college 🙂

Having our all our drinks finished, we were then recommended to try some Iranian Tea.

Tea directly imported from Iran! Hmm… I’ve only had Chinese, Darjeeling, Earl Grey, English Breakfast, Peppermint, Chamomile and Green tea before though.

 

No harm trying this Iranian tea for the 1st time 🙂

(I like this photo! I somehow look excruciatingly thin here LOL)

when the tray came, we were somewhat impressed

 

I like the set-up of the tiny tea-pot with the candle beneath it, miniature cup and saucers, sugar pot and the authentic design of the glassware in general. The dude looking all regal in the portrait?

Must be an Iranian big-shot or some perennial general, I guess 🙂

 

Sip sip! Tastes very different from ANY of the tea I’ve listed above.

It has some kind of Chai-cum-Bittersweet flavour to it

It wasn’t long before I got used to the after-taste 🙂

Eventually, we had more. Now, this was a really unique tea to me!

 

Lemme introduce you to the lady boss *ahem* of this Shisha Lounge

 

Her name is Newsha and she comes from Iran!

Awesome, share some Iranian goodness with us here in Malaysia

Her lovely joint has been operating for roughly 3 months now

It’s fairly new but beginning to pick up already

Just one visit and it became my instant favorite already 🙂

I cannot wait to come back to Malaysia and patronize this hang out spot with my mates again!

 

With some new friends at Shisha Lounge 🙂

Newsha’s mates are pretty cool too!

They also introduced me to something new to eat…

 

Ta-daaaa! In your face! 😀 😀

What is it? It’s one of Iran’s traditional food called the ‘Nimroo’.

Some form of an omelette wrapped with veggies in soft, freshly baked warm bread.

 

Here’s a close up of Nimroo

(and a close up of his face too haha!)

 

Kelly and I continued shisha-ing the night away and played with the Iranian chess/checker board game for a bit.

 

We eventually gave up because we had no clue how to play it LOL

When smoke gets in your eyes~

I had a fantastic night and a “getaway” to Iran this evening. They really give you a true taste of Iran 🙂

With the impeccable service you get, it’s hard not to enjoy yourselves there!

 

They open till late too, around 3AM so it’s perfect for after-hours session.

 

So round up your shisha-mates for a great night out and thank me later!
