Happy Sunday lovelies!

My past seven days were likened to a happy breeze kicking up colourful leaves on an Autumn evening

I was back in form. Cheerful &  brimming with smiles, compared to last week's dreadful crawl of a week

Out and about on a sunny afternoon!

Oh and to my fellow Malaysian people, HAPPY MALAYSIA DAY!

Yup, for you non-Malaysian readers, today is Malaysia's birthday and we are 49 years old. 

———-TRIVIA ———

Malaysia Day is NOT to be confused with our National/Independence Day,

which was celebrated some two weeks ago on the 31st August.

Today, 49 years ago, the formation of four independent nations : 

Malaya, Sabah, Sarawak & Singapore gave rise to a new nation….

and that new nation was Malaysia.

16th September 1963 was the very day we became a country of our own! 

HAPPY 49TH BIRTHDAY TO MY BELOVED COUNTRY MALAYSIA 

——————————–

Anyway, what made my week this time round?

We'll see :

Headed to The Pool KL in Ampang for a food review of their Japanese restaurant, Kyoto Lab

Being a Japanese food enthusiast, the excellent quality, taste & choice of meals exceeded my expectations!

Full blogpost coming soon!

Slowly regained my appetite again and indulged in some comfort food

Traditional American Pancake Stack by Paddington's House of Pancakes @ The Curve

For some reason, those pancakes that I had above tasted like cardboard & had a rubbery texture. 

What happened to the soft, fluffy, melt-in-your mouth pancakes I always used to have?  This makes the avid pancake-fan in me, sad 

Had some retail therapy to make me happy.

Hey, who doesn't love pretty things in pretty boxes? 

Char Tang Hoon in SS2 Pasar Malam (night market)

Only RM3.50 and was superb! 

Dinnertimes with the magician boys Andrew & JB 

We hung out at Delicious @ Mid Valley Megamall and I'd fully recommend the…..

Pumpkin Soup with chopped almonds! 

It's a new item in the menu. It was flavourful, not too creamy & just the right texture 

Party time at NSFW presents : 12th Planet all the way from Los Angeles, USA!

I jumped right onto the podium (and made bestie Pam join me up there!) and I shooked 12th Planet's hand! 

Thanks for the photo Pam xx

The heavy dubstep-DnB artist shot our faces to full colour once he took control of the party

Song of the week! I love Zedd, 'nuff said 

This was the song that 12th Planet boomed and catapulted me to rave on the podium!

Just a lil SELCA again

Headed out for dinner with my suede grey fedora & a buttoned American flag blouse!

Made some dinner. Inspired by popular Arabic dish, Shakshouka

Baked eggs, tomatoes, onions, black pepper and cumin!

Got a little SELCA crazy whilst stuck in a jam. How narcissistic, I know 

Found something extremely relevant whilst I was caught on the LDP traffic jam

Why that highway is congested even at 3PM is beyond me. But that's something to think about, no? 

Spent my entire Saturday with theboyfie in Borders-Starbucks, The Curve.

He was reading the new book he bought, The Great Mortality by John Kelly,

while I was working away on some of my blogging & photo editing. 

Attended another one of the Arthur's Day celebrations in Sid's Pub @ TTDI today

Gee, I love the month-long celebrations! So much merriment 

To Arthur! 

Dinner at TGI Friday's @ Sunway Pyramid! 

For the non-health conscious, I'd recommend the Deep Fried Mac & Cheese balls 

Should you prefer a healthier meal, I'd recommend the Stuffed Mushrooms with ground beef!

It's served with bruschetta toppings and pretty damn delicious too 

Dennis & I  Just came back from Youth Jam, held in Sunway Pyramid!

I was the judge for the blogging competition by Youth Jam-SONY's National Blogger Festival

So happy to be able to lend my support to the movement and youth empowerment 

And that wraps up my seven days this time round.

It was a pretty average week, with some good news (still a secret at the moment!) to share very soon!

Just a little secret (well, not so secret anymore!) I'm pursuing magic & aim to learn a new language.

A while back, I promised a certain French magician that when I go to Paris one day, I'm going to impress him with my magic performance and a particular mentalism/illusion trick. And I will. 

That being said, have an awesome seven days ahead dearies.

And to my Malaysian readers, enjoy tomorrow's public holiday thanks to Malaysia Day! 

Much love,

Jessicat

All set and ready to go! She’s ever movin.. here and there! One minute back in Penang the other minute away outstation. This trip, it’s to KayElle with Benj –

benjieos

. The journey was tiresome and boring but we recreated a whole new jolly atmosphere by laughing & playing around

LOL. You’ll probably see the rest with Benj. And of course, there are some of the niceys

We arrived safely *gulps* and were greeted by a familiar face – Jose!
What a babyragdoll hmm?

After ONLY less than an hour of rest, we headed straight to One Utama for some shopping. Here, there and everywhere! But looks like I have to put a -stop- sign on my wallet (due to my hazardous shopping activities last month) lest I become the next broke-to-the-core person.

Check out 1-U’s christmas decors: can it beat KLCC’s and Time Square’s?

Soon after, our tummies signaled dinner. Benj and I walked around scouting for a perfect place for our meal. p.s- My Benj being the dudu he is, walked into Chili’s and embarrassed himself by asking a silly question.

However, we did enjoy a fantabulous meal at Friday’s. That is THE understatement of the year.

Fattening? I. DON’T.GIVE.A.FUCK.ANYMORE
For those who know me well, you’ll be surprised I said that.

We got home and ka-plunkked on the bed. Goodnight all.

The next morning at an unearthly hour, we had to wake up early to rush (via feet, cab and LRT) to the U.S Embassy to pick-up Benj’s visa. This fatfatfattenned-obese cow of a security guard was so darn stern that he yelled at a poor little kid for innocently taking a photo. She was so frightened and ran away! I hope you won’t get nightmares gurl.

We then hit Mid Valley for more shopping, good food and to meet up our friend Jean and her boyf Daniel. Waiting a good whole ONE HOUR in Sushi King for them got us pretty pissed in the beginning, but it was worth the wait. Glad we finally met up, guys!

All in the mood for Christmas!

Oh, and we were at the Pet’s world soon after. Check out these felines.
They look like they’re probably fed-up with what life has to offer. poor cats!

IKEA, Ikano Power Center and The Curve was the next stop and we ordered a dozen of their famous curry-puffs for supper and breakfast tomorrow. Saw more pretty fascinating sights too!

wow. home. mine. future. must!

*screeches to a halt* WAIT! this reminds me of my dudu silly boo –
Exhibit A : A wooden model
of Hubby

Had some yummy home-cooked dinner by Benj’s aunt and now he’s beside me waiting for his turn to ElleJay. Aight,gonna go bounce now! Need to shower

It’s a one-way ticket to Penang tomorrow!
Had a great time with ya boo~
