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 

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 

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

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  (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

Finally had the time to sit down and blog about my birthday in Twenty-One, Bangsar!

Just like last year, I usually have a few birthday celebrations as friends come in different groups… and different geographical locations. It'll be tough to maul them altogether. This year, I celebrated a few birthdays too – with a group of fellow netizens in KL and Singapore, my wonderful Fockers in Ipoh and most certainly my insane homies back in Penang.

Mom's e-card 😀

But first! On the morning of my birthday, (slept at 5am the night before replying Facebook & Twitter birthday wishes, calls & sms-es BIG THANKEW YA!)  the doorbell rang and I lumbered outta bed to open it. Before me, stood a man with a bouquet of flowers!

Loved them so much! It certainly made my morning a cheerier one 😀

Thanks to one of my good friends June

Yes gurl, I will enjoy myself tonight! 😀 You can be sure about that hehe

Let's begin! Shall we? 😀

Dolled up and left for Twenty-One bar to celebrate my 21st burpday 😀

Was so sad for being FFK-ed (ditched) last minute, how could they do this to me on my birthday?

AND THEY SUDDENLY APPEARED RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES

T____________T I didn't know whether to laugh or to cry!

When I screamed, they said

"LIDDAT ONLY SURPRISE YOU MA!!"

While I was busy making sure everyone had a drink in their hands

Was nice to see everyone mingling about already!

We chatted, took pictures and caught up with each other

The drink of the night was Johnnie Walker Black Label 😀

Cheers Ren and Jeff! 😀 😀 Bottoms up yo!

But all hell broke loose when Eric bought me a glass of Graveyard

It's a killer and it tastes awfully vile! Aaacckk

Brass Iconography ring by Soak Republic

Whee! Thanks dearie

BUT. THAT'S. NOT. ALL

Eric and Jac also surprised me again with something else!

I dragged the other Eric to join me in this murder!

Sharing is caring, no? 😉 😉 heee!

But he left me midway to fend for myself! aaaauughhh!

haha. But it was all gulped down in the end! Thanks guys

Random peekture of my guests during the parteh 😀

After numerous shots, bottoms up challenges, a Graveyard and a Flaming Lambo,

it was safe to say that I was starting to get a lil woozy~

With my fave Shouters! Daniel, Yen, Aaron, Eve & Satkuru 😀

I loved the Liquor Roulette set btw! More drinking ey? Muahaha

it was not long before the bottle of Black Label went dry. So I opened another bottle!

I don't exactly recall, but I was pretty certain the waitor gave me the bill to sign but no pen to sign it with!

More random party peektures 😀

One step closer to becoming a rockstaaaar babeh!!

m/ Joe whatchu laughing at you? 😛

Sometime after the stroke of midnight, my biological birthdate was officially over. But no, not the party 😀

It was time for the birthday cake!

Yummmm!! Dark White Chocolate Cheese cake, from Secret Recipe

My absolute fave 😀 10 STARS!

As there were lotsa smokers in da house, it didn't take long for the candles to be lighted up 🙂

Apparently, I didn't allow anyone to snatch the Ukelele away from me! 😀

Very woozy but I KNEW at this point someone made a toast to me

I heard my name and the clinking of glasses! Love you guys

Group photo yo!

With everyone sans a few who already headed home + extreme latecomers

Doesn't matter what time you come or leave, most importantly you're HERE to share a big bite of my birthday:

😀 😀

Speaking of extreme latecomers, Nigel, Mike and Jess (not me, the other Jess) came

after the cake cutting session 😀

Continued partying with everyone 😀

Let's all cut us some slack and let loose, today's a parteh time! 😀

xoxo 😀 The LAST ones to leave!

As it was a Thursday night, most of my guests were working adults which had to leave by 1am plus. Due to work the very next morning. AHHH!! 😛 😛 😛 😛 THE PERKS OF BEING A TWENTY-ONE YEAR OLD!!! *rubs it in* Muahahahah. That's for repetitively saying this to my face –

TWENTY-ONE ONLY AHHH??

SO YOUNNGGGGGG ONE!!

😛

YESSS WORRR!!!

TWENTY-ONE ONLY… HOW!!!!!?

heck, age is just a number *winks*

then again, what haven't we done by twenty one? 😛 😛

TWENTY-ONE, VIBRANT AND LOVING EVERY MOMENT OF IT!

You only turn 21 ONCE so make the best of it!

Tonight was certainly a night to remember. Thanks to each and everyone of my rockstar guests for the presents

and who made the party all the more merrier and especially sharing my big day with me

even IF you didn't get me a present due to extreme short notice, your presence was the present already!

But those who did, thanks for going the extra mile to make me smile  🙂

I don't remember this picture being taken but I reckon I was thanking all my guests on Twitter!

heck, forgive the dreadful grammatical errors I saw the very next morning >___<

Guess alcohol can really fudge up your braincells

Thank you Satkuru, Aaron and Eric for helping me take peektures of my party!

While I crashed at the backseat of the car, the boys were having their own bit of fun 😛

Thanks to Ying Zi, Chris and Anis who walked me back to my crib and ensured I was fine before they left.

Woke up the next morning with a beautiful sight –

Birthday presents from last night!

I guess these were the only memories (besides photos) that I have!

As expected, this was YET ANOTHER BIRTHDAY I DON'T REMEMBER! *sobs*

I gotta stop piling on the alco yo!

Highlight of the morning = A LEOPARD PRINT G-STRING

when I ripped open one birthday present

*faints* 😛 😛
