Greetings from Kuantan!! Here to help facilitate The Star BRATs workshop Sept 2010

September 5, 2010 by thejessicat

 

Hey hey all! 😀

 

Yes, I'm in a land foreign to me. Though I ain't proud to say that I've never stepped foot in Kuantan, Pahang before (it's the largest state in Peninsular Malaysia) I am, in every sense of the word, a tourist in my own country this time round. 😀

 

 

But first, here's a pretty sight to see along the North-South highway en route to Pahang!

 

 

 

Yup, it was a faint rainbow somewhere in the distance

 

After a slight drizzle 😀

 

 

 

Being a first timer in Kuantan, one can't help but to stare in amazement at the HUGE street signs along the roads!

 

Prolly meant for the short sighted or elderly people. But then again, there can't be that much senior citizens in Kuantan to warrant them ALL huge signages, right? *ponders*

 

 

 

 

My point exactly.

 

 

 

I swear they are 3 times the size of normal road signs of all the other states of Malaysia!

 

 

And well, their moralistic roadsigns can mess up the minds of the guilty!
 

 


 

Translated from Bahasa Malaysia :
 

Don't you feel guilty? Throwing rubbish out of your vehicles?

 

So after settling down in the hotel with The Star R.AGE team, off we headed to Pak Su (Soon) Restaurant.

 

 

It's quite a popular foodie outlet for fresh and top-notch seafood! 😀

 

 

Don't exactly remember what we ordered, but there were definitely fish, crabs, prawns, bean curds, squids and so much more on the table!

 

 

Ian and I before the food arrived 😀

 

 

Ooohhhhhhh glorious baby coconuts!

 

 

Yes I know we can get them in any part of Malaysia, as they grow in abundance!

 

But STILL. 😛

 

 

 

Honestly, the pincers of that crab served was enormous 😀

 

So can you imagine the SIZE of the entire crustacean!?

 

 

After a hearty (and rather pricey) dinner, we all adjourned to Teluk Chempedak for some supper by the beach

 

 

 

Totally loved the concept of the McDonalds there!

 

Very homely and al-fresco style 😀

 

 

 

Beaches are love. Ain't it?

 

 

 

Strolling by the beach. But all alone? 😛

 

Prince charming, where art thou?

 

 

 

Camwhored a wee bit with the rest of the Senior BRATs 🙂

 

 

 

Leon and Andrea 😀

 

 

Jason and I

 

 

It was pretty good fun though! With the R.AGE team chillaxing by the beach, with sand in between our toes and enjoying the salty breeze blowing softly our way.

 

Guess this is all the relaxation we need before handling a bunch of BRATs (40 teenagers to be exact!!) for 4 days starting tomorrow morning.

 

 

Love my room though. It's spacious, comfy and has ample lighting!

Oh, and we bunked in at M.S Garden Hotel, Kuantan if you were wondering

 

 

 

Had a long day! We took them all around Kuantan to the fishing villages with salty Fish processing factories, batik making factories and Keropok Lekor production houses! For the non-Malaysians, those are the local delicacies and important heritages of Kuantan

 

 

But more of that soon okay? In the meantime, here's a lil sneak peak!

 

 

 

The group of hyperactive and inquisitive BRATs which I accompanied to the Batik making factory

 

Check out their batik print  – the BRATs logo!

Holidaying around the world with cheap travel packages! Mayflower is back with great promos for MATTA Fair 2 – 5 September @ The Mall, KL

September 3, 2010 by thejessicat

 

 

Aaahhh!! So yesterday I came across some flyers about the MATTA Fair and was stoked looking at all the affordable prices!

I even put it up on Facebook and Twitter and gosh, you guys responded very well 😀

 

Looks like lotsa people in the hauz are yearning for a holiday just the way I do too.

Here are some pictures from my last holiday which I miss so much!

 

Looking all touristy in the middle of a busy street!

LOL with a map summore

 

And here am I in some ancient Rome lookalike place! 😀

 

So yes, I wanna go on a holiday again really baddddd! MATTA Fair officially begins today and I can't wait to get my hands on those good deals before anyone else takes it all up! Because I'm kiasu like that P 😛

 

And guess what? I found some awesome promos on Mayflower Tour's flyers and Imma share them all with you! Their Free & Easy tours covers ALL 7 continents like OMG 😀

 

 

Okay so.. where do we go first?

Since I'll be heading over to Melbourne next year, here's the deets on Ozzie which I've found.

 

So cheap!! 704 bucks for a 4 day tour zomg 😀

 

 

So what's next?

This one really sparked my attention though

 

Holidaying in Paris for about a thousand grand ONLY 😀

*thumbs up*

 

Hmm oh! Like some of my friends, if you're planning to travel the European countries for some sight-seeing, or to ride a strange creature, say… a llama, or experience snow…

 

 

or if you wanna hook up with a hot European dude like my Norweigian friend above, then European countries is the way to go! 😛

Here, Imma share some with yall

 

Super worth your bottom dollar right?

Don't say I didn't tell yall 😀

 

 

Oooh and and, since I'll be also heading to the UK to visit the bestie Joyce somewhere in the 3rd quarter of next year, here are some of the packages which I found really worth the money!

 

Yup, this is the one I've been talking about on Facebook. London for roughly 800 bucks! Where else can you get that on your own!? 😀

 

And do I hear Hawaiiiiii babeh!!? 😀

Fabulous for honeymoons. The prices are really rock-bottom. Melikes.

 

There are just so much more countries available for tour by Mayflower, but I can't possibly show you EVERYTHING lest my blogpost be lagging up your computer! So, you know where to go.. the MATTA Fair is gonna be held at The Mall, KL (opposite PWTC) from today till Sunday at 10am – 9pm.

 

Don't miss out, okay? 😀 You wouldn't wanna see your potential vacations flying out your window!

 

Good thing we've got Mayflower Tour the holiday and travel specialist to kautim all our holidays for us

 

 

Oh and before I forget, lemme share with you a few more.. closer to home ones!

 

I'm honestly sick and fed up of the same TWO people telling me "Ohh don't go! Dangerous riots!" over and over again each time I mention that I wanna go to Thailand. I declined different groups of friends THREE TIMES to tour Bangkok and Phuket because of this -__-

And everyone went without me, enjoyed themselves and came back with great memories 🙁 🙁

But thanks to Mayflower, I can take their words, stick it up where the sun doesn't shine and go ANYWAY 😀 😀

 

No worries! Thailand's political situation is very stable (and peaceful) now. So hey ho, let's go!

 

I wanna go also!!!!! 🙁 🙁

Very tempting lor! I think imma go tomorrow and buy the Bangkok one already.

 

 

Amongst all the holiday destination deemed islands in Malaysia, (I think we have 7 if I ain't wrong) Pangkor Island is the nearest to me!

Yup yup, it's located in Perak so it's only a 2 hour drive from our capital, KL City

 

Most likely, Best Western Marina Island Resort is gonna be my crib for

3 days and 2 nights sometime next month 🙂 🙂

 

 

Can't wait to check out that place and share it all with yall!

You can head to Mayflower's booth during the MATTA Fair and check out their promos of only RM78 per person (twin sharing) inclusive of breakfast yo

 

It looks so gorgeous from the pictures already, I wonder how it's really like inside! 😀

Well, I shall find out soon

 

 

Gosh. All this holiday talk is making me itching to purchase some already for this year-end and also next year! 🙂 Why, I've some travel packages in mind already *grins* I hope you have yours too.

 

Where? Mayflower's booth at The Mall, KL (opposite PWTC)

When? 2nd September  – 5th September 2010

Time? 10am – 9pm

 

 

Looks like my T-Rex is all up and ready to go on a holiday already!!

Down boy 😀 😀 We'll get our bags packing soon, I promise! 😀

August 18, 2010 by thejessicat

Timbaland will no longer be performing in Malaysia for Arthur's Day. Why? Let's leave it as a question unsolved 🙂 Anyways, make way for Flo-Rida, Sean Kingston and Colby O'Donis instead!!! 😀

————————————-
 

 

Okay! I just got home after the Arthur's Day press conference held at @LIVE, Sunway Pyramid held a moment ago

 

Courtesy of Guinness, I was invited to the launch to discover the line up for the event, as they were gonna reveal it there and then!

Eggcited yet? 😀 😀

 

 

 

It was a pretty wet day and I reckon everyone was late due to the insane traffic snarl.

 

 

But ANYWAY!

As more guests started rollin' in, we mingled over ice cold glasses and glasses of frothy Guinness draft. I met lots of my friends there too! 😀 The more the merrier 🙂 🙂 Was great seeing lotsa familiar happyfaces there! Cheers loves! 😀 😀

 

 

Among the few friends whom I camwhored with 🙂

 

 

 

Nom nom nom frothy beer! I defo cannot wait for this year's Arthur's Day! The party of the year is back again yo 🙂 🙂 Enjoyed myself loads at last year's where the Black Eyed Peas rocked Malaysia! Bet this year's gonna be a blast again

 

 

FML got photobombed by Eu Veng while camwhoring!

 

 

 

Sippin' on some Guinness with Karen & Yuen Yee 😀

 

 

Oh and remember the #freebeer by Tiger I blogged about recently? 🙂 Was great bumping into Sean again! Guinness, Tiger whatever, it's all goood

 

 

Also, was a pleasant surprise to bump into my ex-colleague, the cute Ken Wei after so long too!

 

He's the editor of STUFF and one of the nicest people to me during my JUICE mag days! 😀

 

 

 

Okay okay! 😀 Enough about me and pals, it's time to reveal whatchu really really wanna know! 😀

 

 

Serena C and Adam Carruthers hosted the event

 

 

 

Who will be performing? Which artiste? *drumroll*

 

Introducing the line-up for Arthur's Day 2010!

 

 

Mizz Nina! 😀 Our local Hip Hop princess

 

I've blogged about her before with Colby Odonis

 

 

 

 

DJ Fuzz! He's one of our leading local DJs

 

And I absolutely love listening to him every weekend on Hitz party on radio 🙂

Makes me wanna hit the clubs almost immediately

 

 

 

 

Thaitainium! A very interesting play of words 😉

 

They're a popular Thai-American Hip Hop trio and last performed at MTV Asia Awards!

 

 

 

Pop Shuvit! Our fab local Hip Hop-Rap-Rock band!

They've been around for as long as ever yo 😀

 

 


But but but!

THAT'S NOT ALL 😀 😀 😀

Who dya think will be jet-setting all the way from the United States just for us?

 

 

Marketing Director Mark Jenner spills it all! 😀 😀

 

 

 

Yup, didn't you see it coming? 😀 😀

 

The star of the show will be none other than Timbaland the American Grammy Award-winning record producer, singer-songwriter, actor, musician and rapper!

 

 

If you've not heard of him, you're *probably* deaf OR

 

don't listen to radio nor Billboard top charts 😀

 

 

 

He's THAT BIG a name

 

Timbaland's the GOD of music to me (along with Pitbull), even my mom can recognize him on the airwaves (I guess I've managed to psycho her!) He's this very prominent producer and has produced the work of big names, shooting them to even bigger fame!


 

 

Peeps like Justin Timberlake, Nelly Furtado, Madonna, Katy Perry, Keri Hilson, Leona Lewis, Mariah Carey, Wyclef Jean, Shakira, Missy Elliott, Nelly Furtado, Jay-Z and the list goes on. I technically worship him, for the lack of a better word LOL! 😀 A true talent. And he'll be pumpin' up the beats just for us on Arthur's Day 😀

 

 

Thumbs up!
