The Sunday Times VII: Sights, sounds, adventures & eats! My week in a flash ♥

October 7, 2012 by thejessicat

 

 

 

Hello hello! It's Sunday again & I'm feeling so energized!

All pumped up from today's gym session but my legs feel like complete jelly at the moment. 

 

I'm a work in progress. 

 

Well I guess that's whatchu get from insane, merciless core trainings & floor workouts of crunches burpees, front planks, leg-lifts, push-ups, lunges, sit-ups, squats yesterday and straight on to today's high-intensity Body Combat session as well as more crunches & planking. 

I think I over-exert myself sometimes 

 

Which is why I only drink Horley's Sculpt protein shakes to restore the protein I need from all those mad workouts

Today's choice of gym shoes: Adidas Adipure 360 for Body Combat & floor workouts! Thanks Adidas Malaysia 

 

I need a massage to relieve my tired muscles. Pronto! ;(

Oh and I think I've said this before, I eat like a pig but I train like a hunting dog.

 

I can never say no to mamak food. Oh the delicious curry, tandoori chicken, spices & thosai

 

We all gotta reward ourselves sometimes. Heh. heh. heh.

My treats include chocolate, milkshakes & cheese cakes. 

So if you're feeling kind or want to fatten me up with anything like how the 'Hansel & Gretel' witch tried to do to Hansel, you can make me a happy girl 

 

Which was exactly what the wonderful peeps at Pizza Hut Malaysia did last Tuesday.

 

I was invited to the Pizza Hut Cheesy 7 Red Carpet party!

They blindfolded me while I sampled the Cheesy 7 pizza – which was a much-speculated comeback.

(Full blogpost coming soon!)

 

What I wore for the night! 

 

After sinfully good food, I always I burn off what I eat – if not at least half of the consumed calories.

Let's kick some arse.

 

 

And the gym has always my second home since 2007 

Yes, I'm emphasizing the year I became a gym rat, because lately, I've had many people asking me "So what made you so into fitness & gym all of a sudden?"

  You asked the question five years too late, baby. 


My answer would be – NOTHING. Because I've always been into health & fitness.

 

Throughout all these years as a fitness junkie, I've never shared my routines nor workout photos before. (I think the most obvious is my constant tweeting and Foursquare check-ins into various gyms and parks).

So, I hope you guys don't ask me the same question anymore pretty please T__T

 

Here's a Thai restaurant I'd like to recommend – Restoran Aroma Thai @ Damansara Perdana

Tom Yam Seafood soup, Pineapple Rice, Thai-style Curry Beef, Pandan Chicken & Cashewnut Prawns

They all tasted authentic and each were reasonably priced around the range of RM8 – RM20

 

Attended the Topshop Members Day party on a Thursday night

Major love for polaroids! Always wanted a polaroid camera 

 

My Thursday was quite eventful. It was spent undergoing a very special procedure for my hair.

It is the Brazilian Keratin Treatment  This is only available at A Cut Above hair salons!

 

I daresay it was the best & most professionally done treatment for my recently-damaged hair

(Full blogpost coming soon!)

 

The gorgeous & talented Winnie Loo also gave my hair a magical touch with her expertise at haircuts

She gave me a very bold & edgy new asymmetrical hairstyle – just the way I like it

 

Can't wait to blog about the entire experience at A Cut Above!

I had so much fun with dearest Winnie experimenting new & unconventional looks for me.

 

Dinner Thursdate with boyfieKon at Chilis Bar & Grill @ Mid Valley Megamall right after

He had the Jalapeno Steak Quesadillas while I had the Chicken Club Tacos 

 

More healthy homemade goodness when I stormed my kitchen as usual.

Take a look!

 

Fresh garden salad & Thousand Island dressing

 

Fluffy omelette with Old El Paso salsa & lots of ground pepper!

 

Friday's breakfast!

Cornflakes with fat-free yoghurt & apple slices

 

It's Friday night! Off to shimmey down & usher in the weekend with some electronic music at Zouk Club KL!

Feeling a lil punkass tonight ;)

 

KLCC hey hey!

 

I don't know about my fellow Malaysians but even after living in this country all my life, I never fail to be amazed at our very own iconic KLCC Petronas Twin-Towers, which was once the world's tallest building! 

 

Partied my Friday night away at Sidney Samson LIVE in Malaysia at Mainroom, Zouk Club KL

RIVER! RIVER! RIVERSIDE… *bleeeeeep*!

 

Had so much fun with the buddies 

 

Sidney Samson dropped beats from Swedish House Mafia, Skrillex, David Guetta, Zedd, Steve Aoki apart from his very own original tracks. Heck, he even surprised us with several old skool, hip-hop/rap music!

On second thought, it's pretty obvious that he's a fan. He even had a Snoop Dogg T-Shirt on :D

 

Oh did you know (or even bother to know) that every Saturday is NO PLASTIC BAG DAY at Tesco?

 

Well, now you do… and you better be prepared!

The last thing you'd wanna do is to lug all your groceries by hand, all the way to your car LOL. For the first time, I actually remembered and brought along two large non-woven environmental friendly bags with me :D

 

Spent my Saturday night being Bob the Builder with bestiePam

Was busy fixing a new shoe rack for our my collection of shoes!

 

Hey, they need a nice pedestal to sit prettily too 

Let me introduce to you my (now) neatly displayed, happy family of 55 pairs of my favorite footwear!

 

High-heels, wedges, stilettos, flats, peep-toes, slingbacks, boots,

sneakers, high-tops, runners, gym shoes & flip-flops! 

 

Will be sharing a panorama photo of both mine and bestiePam's shoe collection soon!

 

I know, don't freak out.

Some girls collect handbags, make up, perfume, stuffed animals, soap bars… and the list goes on.

I told you I'm a caterpillar. I have too many feet & all of them want a pair of shoes to wear :P

Song of the week that came just in time! That's some epic dubstep right there

BoyfieKon is blasting it in our living room right this very moment & totally got me hooked 

 

Another thing I did this week that I just have to share is…

 

HAHA! I TRAILED A SPEEDING AMBULANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME!!

 

You know how people follow/tailgate ambulances because every vehicle will make way for them?

Well, I've seen lotsa motorists do it, and since I've always wanted to take advantage of the ambulance's emergency lane, I did. It was cool how everyone gave way to me too :P (It works. I arrived my destination in half the usual time)

 

 

That's all for this week. G'night, dearies. Dream of unicorns and rainbows tonight, aight? ;)

Make sure you're well-rested to tackle your next seven days with gusto!

 

Much love,

Jessicat

My little passage to India : Jaipur Curry Club, Clayton + Out of India, Morwell | Indian Restaurants in Melbourne

June 21, 2011 by thejessicat

 

I know there are heaps of Indian food in Malaysia, where I'm from.

But within the past 5 months in Australia, I hadn't had a single taste of Indian food… at all!

 

My tastebuds were beginning to have mad, insatiable craving for spicy, smooth curries and Indian roti & naans.

 

But Konzy beat me to it. At 4 o'clock in the morning, he suggested that we go for Indian food!

@___@

 

And we rounded up buddy his sister Jaime and buddy Alex to come along and join us 🙂

 

Double date Indian style! Our food escapade awaits!

I ordered Mango Lassi – which Indian dinner is complete without the famous lassi?

 

It somehow tasted TOO yoghurt-ey 🙁

 

We didn't take long to order our food although we were spoiled for choice!

Each of us ordered a different bowl of curry each, some rice and naan bread

 

Took pictures of the restaurant while waiting for the food

 

There was something about the decor that was authentically Indian about this outlet.

Heck they even played Bollywood music videos (as seen on the TV screen) and Hindi/Tamil songs too

 

Camwhored while waiting 😀

 

And yay the food arrived!

Here's my steaming Masala Kulcha naan, fresh off the oven

 

It had a whole lotta stuff in it, capsicums, onions and more!

 

The curries came shortly after 🙂

Here are 4 of our curries that we shared amongst each other

 

Top row : Prawn Masala Curry & Beef Vindaloo

Bottom row : Chicken Tikka Masala & Bangol Chicken Curry

 

Looked so creamy, smooth and nommy!

I bet it'll taste just as good  – if not better

 

all ready to gobble them all up 😀

 

Verdict?

It was delicious, without a doubt! My favorite was the Bangol Chicken Curry.

the Prawn Masala Curry wasn't spicy AT ALL; where as the Beef Vindaloo which was spicy till my ears fumed LOL

 

Konzy and his sister Jaime engaging in an odd conversation about teeth and braces

 

This just keeps rubbing it in. I've always wanted to have braces done since I was 12 but was too afraid

And now when everyone has taken their braces off looking all pretty, I refuse to put them on NOW.

 

I don't wanna be a brace-face at 21! ;( Highly, highly unattractive.

 

Anyways, we ate and ate – till we were stuffed! My gosh, I swear I've never been THIS full since forever It was so yummy that we kept eating.

 

In the end, we didn't manage to finish the rice, naan and Beef Vindaloo!

Everything else was a brave attempt to chomp down whee

 

A very full & bloated us. Nommynomnom!

 

More camwhore pictures- in front of Out of India's huge mirror!

 

I'm glad we finally caved in to our Indian cravings.

The burn of the curry was good and its spiciness cleared up my nose 😀 😀

 

Jaime and I – One for the road!

 

 

——————:kiss:kiss:kiss——————

 

 

Next stop – another Indian ritual?

Woot woot! This was before I left for Sydney during the Easter Holidays 😀

 

Ana, Y U NO look at the camera properly one 🙁 🙁
 

Anyway! We brought 2 of our white friends along and was tad worried they might find it too spicy

So to somewhat suit everybody's tastebuds, here's what we ordered!

 

Tandoori Chicken -(coincidentally, my fave!)

 

3 curries which I don't remember the names anymore LOL

Wrote it down somewhere but it decided to play some hide and seek at my displeasure

 

I know 2 of it were chicken and 1 of it was lamb.

And all 3 curries were pretty spicy!

 

SPYYYYYYYYYY SEEEEEEEEEEEE! It burrrrrrrns!

 

But whatever, with every burn, I take another bite

You now how you can't take it but it's too yummy to stop? Summin' like that

 

It's finger lickin' good LOLOLOL

 

Here are the 2 white boys attempting Indian food –

 

Can you handle it?

 

Oh and here's my favorite curry among the three that we ordered.

 

But! I don't remember what it was called either 😛

 

So that was my gastronomic escape to "Little India"

Strangely enough, I have just realized that I don't eat enough Indian food whilst in Malaysia. I probably should!

 

Random camwhore photo! I was bored while waiting for them

 

Okay bye! *abrupt ending*

P/S : Indian food rocks. I'm game for it anytime!
