Off to Siem Reap

Posted by jessbabe on Thursday Jan 15, 2009 Under Travel

It’s a last minute decision, plan and getaway.

Will be back only on the 20th of January, 2009. My flight is at 7am, supposed to leave home 30 minutes time to the airport but I’m not done packing yet.

Hopefully will be able to update from Siem Reap.

My First Weekend in 2009

Posted by jessbabe on Monday Jan 5, 2009 Under Birthday, Family, Food, Uni Life

I’m loving my 2009.
The first weekend came and went with lots of food and laughter.

John’s Birthday at Jogoya Japanese Buffet.

Dinner was amazing. So filling that we had to rest in Starhill for 2 hours! Awesome company as usual, delicious food servings. Plus, few scoops of Haagen Daaz Cookies and Cream would drive me insane! Definitely better than the one we had in Shogun.

Read birthday boy’s *post*!

Pei Wern‘s BIG 2-0 partying at Poppy.

It’s been quite sometime since I stepped into Poppy to party. So much has changed, banyak Ah Bengs, Ah Lians, posers and wannabes in the club. BUT, I still love you. Happy birthday to you, Wern. Can’t believe you’re twenty already!

My Sunday with these two monkeys.

These two never fail to entertain me. Love this two precious to bits. We had curry fish head for lunch at Hulu Langat and yong tau foo for dinner at Pudu.

GEMUK-nya…

NOW!

Back to reality and routine tomorrow.
New semester starting off tomorrow at 10am.
I’m looking at 4 subjects so far, hopefully no changes in the timetable again.

MCH 208: Communication in Workplace
MCH 215: Intercultural Communication
MCH 214: Advertising Copywriting
MCH 350: PR Strategies and Campaign

I leave my teens in Amuleto

Posted by jessbabe on Saturday Jan 3, 2009 Under Birthday, Food

*overload pictures post*

The entire month of December has been pretty fruitful to me.

3rd December 2008 is the date when I left my teen years behind and start my twenties.

Quote Dominic,”You’re no longer a girl nor a women yet!

Over the two weeks, I was busy juggling with my finals and birthday dinner party, and where else would I held it other than my favourite restaurant, Amuleto. Thanks to Stella To and team for accommodating with my never-ending requests and gave me one of the best birthday dinner ever.

I had 50 confirmed guests on the 9th of December 2008. Yes, whooping 50 people. But 5 people was unable to attend due to workload. So, 45 of them include my family, close, old and new friends which were significant to me in the year 2008. Read More
