Ice Skating @ Sunway

Written by   on   in ,   with No comments
My sister had been cooped up in the house for a week without any activities. Kesian.

So we thought of bringing her out for fun. What could be more fun than ice skating on a hot day?

While waiting for the crew to re-surface the ice

It had been a long time since we last skated. The entrance fee for 3 persons (plus socks & gloves) is insane - RM93! Sungguh tak senonoh Sunway charge harga yang tak patut. Huhu...

This is my sister, skating like a pro. Although she spent the first 15 mins clinging to the wall, but not long after that she was zooming around faster than me.

This is me skating like a wimp with Suami Terchenta. We were careful not to bump into any kids, although it was a tough job. The ice rink was crowded with people, I tell you. Kids fall everywhere macam durian runtuh.

Laughing at ourselves after we fell off, despite our best efforts not too.

The next time we feel like going here again, we'll make sure we bring our gloves and stockings to avoid the hefty charge. Boleh hangus poket dibuatnya.

Taste Like Heaven - Godiva Chocolixir

If you're a fan of chocolate, this should be the ultimate treat:

Godiva Chocolixir
Made from the famous Godiva chocolate, so it's not something you should buy everyday (unless you have a really deep pocket):

Godiva Chocolixir
At the price of RM22 per drink, I doubt I'd buy this again in the future. Saja nak merasa minuman coklat paling mahal di Malaysia...

Something to distract me

Lately I don't have the mood to blog.

I am once again seriously considering of being on hiatus for a long time. It was just that work has taken a really bad toll on me.

Every time it's Sunday, I started to feel anxiety attack. I began to dread Monday very badly, that Sunday is not enjoyable at all. I hate Sunday. I hate Monday even more. Every other day except Saturday, I just plough through it like a zombie.

Imagine only being alive for one day - Saturday.

God. I need a reason to continue this half-life. I'm wasting my youth in misery.

Lewat Lagi...

Hari ini kompeni saya sudah mula tracking orang lewat masuk ofis. FYI, masuk ke ofis saya perlu ada pas, & pas ni perlu sentuh di gate masuk macam sentuh kad Touch N Go di gate LRT. Bila sentuh pas di gate, sistem akan terus detect orang2 yang datang lewat, termasuklah saya. Seterusnya bos saya akan dapat surat cinta email untuk notify staff yang lambat.

Hari ini saya lambat masuk. Orang lain dah on PC dan bukak email, saya baru terhegeh2 nak masuk ofis & sign attendance. Saya dah risau bos saya akan mengamok. Dalam lif lagi saya dah fikir alasan apa yang saya nak pakai. Akhirnya saya dapat idea.

Lepas je saya letak beg atas meja, saya terus jumpa bos. Saya buat muka serius dan tanya bos, 'Bos, dapat tak email notify I lambat?'

Bos jawab,'Belum lagi, kenapa?'

'Oh, I nak bagitau ni. I lambat bukan apa, I saja je nak test sistem.'

Bos tak tau nak kata apa. Dia nak marah tapi rasa geli hati jugak. Orang lain dah tergelak macam nak pecah perut dengar jawapan bernas dari saya. Hahaha! Tak sia2 saya buat alasan yang buatkan satu ofis ketawa besar!

Oleh sebab alasan saya sangat unik, jadi bos lepaskan saja perbuatan tak bermoral saya i.e. datang lewat. Lain kali saya kena fikir lagi alasan lain sebab alasan tu cuma boleh guna hari pertama je!

Saturday Hiking Activities

Written by   on   in ,   with 4 comments
Most people treat weekend as a relaxing time.

Not me. Not Jen. Certainly not our hubbies!

You see, we are two evil ladies who have gotten a taste of S&M and got no heart wan! We asked our hubbies to sacrifice their sleep and go hiking on their rest day!

Ooh... two sadist wives! There they were, the two culprits feigning sweetness & innocence:

Kawaii or not...?

Rupa2nya, ada udang di sebalik batu.

We started to climb the steep slope going up the hill to the canopy walkway. The most senseless thing we noted was, we could not go up the walkway because the ticketing counter only opens at 9.30am! Who would climb up at that time? Not us.

Just about to start climbing

The thing about FRIM that I love is the majestic view of the tree top as seen from below:

Maybe this is how the Old Forest in LOTR looks like, before one of the Ents bends down, picks you up and gobbles you.

Jen & MK were caught by surprise and fast-fast, they whipped out a camera to shoot the amazing view:

'I thought, what la, you point upwards... Ingat got tahi burung about to drop on us.'

As we started to climb the well-trodden path of the jungle, Suami Terchenta started to take more photos to forget his miserable conditions of being forced to go against gravity, and MK started to re-consider the idea of climbing Mount Kinabalu, while both of us continued our talk-a-thon non-stop:

Jen & I still spouting off our mouths, 'Blablablabla...'

In fact, we were the only two hikers who tried our hardest to make sound pollution while other hikers were just concentrating to climb / go down in silence & in one piece.

I never met anyone who was more talkative than Jen.

Everybody was happy when we reached the canopy walkway. Especially Jen's hubby.

Still talking even while resting

After 15 minutes of resting and a whole conversation of durians later, we continued our journey, this time going down the hill. It took us probably 15 minutes to go down.


We took a respite and enjoyed the sight of waterfall and little kiddos dipping their feet in the cool water.

The signage shows that we had walked / climbed approximately 2km from where we started (the mosque):


Suddenly we spotted this bunting:

'Eh, alang2 we're here, let's visit this place! It's only 15mins walk from here.'

Who knows we kena tipu? Unless you walk like the Ents, it actually took us 30mins to reach that place.

But we did not mind so much, especially we got to spend another 30mins talking talking talking:

Walking down the memory lane...

Occasionally we stopped to gaze contentedly at the wind-blown leaves falling off the tree:


I also love the open space between trees and ground covered in fallen leaves. One could not help thinking 'Bollywood!' when one comes across this:


We called this tree, the army tree:

Guess why leh?

Finally we reached the Malay Tea House:

There was a lot of antique items and actually, the place is not so bad. Even I won't mind working here because I can go to work with the same outfit I sleep in:


10 minutes later, we ordered these for our first breakfast:


And...

Aiskrim potong!

You may wonder why I said 'first breakfast'. We had our 'second breakfast' at a mamak restaurant later on. Why?

That's why! The sago gula melaka costs RM3.50 and my aiskrim potong costs RM3!

Anyway, I had a very enjoyable time hiking with Jen. Time flew so fast and we hardly felt exhausted even though we almost always ran out of breath due to our super active lips exercise!

Jen, let's do this again some day:
