TANG YUAN DAY

Woohoo, the day is finally here. One year passed so fast. I didn't even know that one year passed, I thought it is the second time doing this this year. Well, I have no sense of time, to put it simpler, is like not knowing that it's one year after the first time doing tang yuan. Rolling into balls (Oi, don't think sick please.) And putting small brown sugar inside the tang yuan.When the water is boiled, you put the tang yuan inside to boil it.

But there's another "style" for the tang yuan. Well, you just roll the tang yuan into smaller balls (I'm warning you!) And not put any small brown sugar into them. But, when you boil the water, you put the ingredients inside. After that the tang yuan. I never tried my grandma's tang yuan before(as in my mother's mother)

I helped my grandma(father's mother) with the tang yuan. Well, she(my grandma) didn't wake me up because I'm sleeping soundly. But, at least I helped 3/4 of the work. Hahha... The tang yuan is awesomee!!












Currently, I've eaten 5 tang yuans! Hahaha.. Yeah, so I grew 5 years older. Well, I have to eat more! But I can't resist to eat more tang yuans despite the fact that I will grow 1 year older. Actually, don't treat me too seriously, I guess you can eat as many tang yuan as you want. You won't get that old easily, it's just a joke. Hhaha... But the tang yuans are really delicious! The "soup" isn't that sweet, nor salty. Ermm.. Grandma put a few sugar cubes inside. But, there's a little smell of the ginger, still, it's fine with me! :D

Overwhelming day today! Well, yestersday was a total opposite!! Well, this pissed me off a lot! Nevermind, let's not talk about this. If not, I'll be hitting myself with my pillow again!

More entries this week I guess, because there's HOLIDAY!

So long and take care, peeps!

GENTING HIGHLANDS PART 3

The final entry about the trip to GenTing Highland. And, it is also the final installment of this entry. Did I used the correct word "installment"? I'm not sure about the words I used though.. Haha.. Okay, back to the topic, the last part of GenTing Highlands. So, of course, we had very little activities going on that day..

As you can tell, part 1 and part 2 refers to day 1 and day 2! Oh my, I just keep on changing the topics.. I'll get back to this topic seriously, like now!

The second night was very peaceful. I really had a good night sleep that night, I didn't hear my dad snore. Plus, the most logical reason was, I slept about 1.34am! A new day and it's past midnight! And, we played lots of games, and had lots of walking. We walked a lot that day. Hence, we were very very tired. My mum woke up later, probably about 7am? She doesn't sleep that long like 8 hours because she's not a heavy-sleeper(obviously, lol)

We had our breakfast at.. Nyonya Colours (click on the link, for the picture of that restaurat) What made me most delighted was this, I was allowed to eat TOAST! Like FINALLY!!! I'm so happy that time, I never ever ever ate toast before. My parents never gave me toast to eat because we didn't have a toaster at home. But if you're talking about me being very very small like 4-8 years old, I'm not sure, I do not have a very good memory, I can tell you this honestly. Haha..

This will always occur to you. Every time before you are going back to your hometown or the country you're staying in, as in going back to the place, you did not have enogh time to shop enough things. So we always do the... LAST MINUTE SHOPPING! Yeah, we actually bought lots of stuffs. Well, for clothings, I bought 4 T-shirts for 50RM! Wait, I forgotten to tell you in detail, 2 of the T-shirts is mine and the others is my mum's. But I guess I can wear it because she's just a little "horizontal" than me. I didn't mention anything words that made people offended arh! Don't say I never tell you!
Popsicle shirt
"Don't judge me" shirt
Panda Shirt

Next, I bought something for my cousins, Cousin Mei and Cousin Wei. Because they are going to Korea like this month, I bought them something to cover their ears. The thing that you can put on your ears, to so-called keep the ear warm.(Ear muffs) Yeah, I bought them that! One minion and one strawberry. But I kind of did a very stupid action, I actually took out the minion design and showed it to Cousin Mei, actually it's for Cousin Wei. LOL.. Then when Cousin Wei saw the strawberry one, he was like "Eeeyer, why give me strawberry. I not girl ley.." You should see how his face looks, like bitter gourd. But I told Cousin Mei to take the strawberry design, she insisted on the minon one. But now, I don't know about their decision, just let them settle themselves! I gave them something that's useful to them, why should I be troubled by this?





My besties and I bought one necklace? Like some stone thing which symbolizes something. We bought the shape which represents education success. Well, because we are studying so we bought this! Haha.. But just wear it, no harm wearing it even though it's not helping me to score better. Also, we can't depend too much on this necklace. We even crave our name on the stone. Cool! Our names are in gold colour!! Looks so shinyy!!


BFF Xin and I bought an Adidas bag! Probably a school bag? Actually, I wanted the Converse bag, but kind of expensive! I always wanted Converse brands, somemore the colour, RED!! I love red! Red is my favourite colour! Having a red school bag, red pencil case, red shoes. EVERYTHING! But the Adidas bag cheaper so I bought it. Well, Adidas also branded right? So I just buy it! Bought the colour pink, close to red? BFF Xin got the Orange bag, looks like red to me. Hahaha..



Oh oh and one more! We bought Crystal Puzzles, 3D ones! Singapore sells it but the designs that is selling in Malaysia is totally different. And kind of affordable! I bought one small pony, one hello kitty strawberry and one panda design. Of course, we have to fix the pieces ourselves. But they helped you sort out the pieces by numbers so it is easy for you to match the pieces together.
In case you didn't know, I love Hello Kitty!! Like YAYY!! There's hello kitty design, actually I wanted both designs, but too many will cause no space in my house. LOL.

And.. BFF Yun loves PANDA!! She loves the design I made for her. Ermm.. I'm not sure if it's a Christmas gift or a... Birthday gift? Her birthday is belated AND early if I give her that day. Lol.. Anyways, here's the photos.






Pictures coming up!! These are not the LAST MINUTE SHOPPING. It's all the photos going back to Singapore. ): Check the caption if you do not know what this picture is or so!












Then we stopped at Da Ma Sheng to shop for food and go to the toilet, for 20 minutes as usual!



My parents bought lots of stuff! Hehe.. They allowed me to buy fish cracker, *finally*

We headed up the bus again, started to drizzle for a while. Or is it fog? We took a few photos in the bus!











The next platform is just stopping at the toilet, well, of course we didn't take any photos there! Haha..

We stopped at Yong Peng again! Of course we go there to have our lunch, we didn't have time to eat at GenTing. Only some snacks. LOL. Sadly, I didn't take any photos of my ""lunch" because I'm so hungry! But.. We bought something, and I got the box of it!



 Reached home about 9pm. In a nutshell, I had a memorable trip to GenTing Highlands, especially with my BFFs and my family. I'm not expecting to go to other countries to explore. But this trip is very overwhelming!

So, this is the last part of the trip to GenTing Highalands. More blog entries will be written. Let me just think of what topics I should write about! Anyways, I will improve my language more, you just need to give me time to brush it up!

Will be back in a few days, BYE~

And...


TAKE CARE~~

GENTING HIGHLANDS PART 2

This entry will take me days to write this.. It will be a longer entry because there are lots and lots of activities going on that day. Games.. to Food... to Movies... And many many more!

The first night I wasn't really able to have a good rest. Usually, when you are going into the hotel room, you have to knock the door and ring the doorbell. To inform "them" that you're staying for how many nights or so. I didn't know we have to flush the toilet bowl before using. Worst, I was the first one using the toilet!! OMGOMG.. But let's not talk about this to scare you! Let's just continue with this entry all about day 2 at GenTing Highlands.

You know, I can tell you honestly, last time I usually spell "GenTing" as "JenTing". Thank goodness my tuition teacher corrected me. LOL.

I woke up about 6am, actually my mum was asleep. But she's about 70% awake because she usually wakes up at 5am to prepare breakfast and stuffs. So she got the opportunity to sleep later. But during the night, my dad just keeps on SNORING!! It's like SO LOUD!! Grr.. I keep taping him on the shoulder, he stopped for a while... And continued AGAIN.. I must do it about 5 times then he woke up and didn't snore again(or maybe he did when I'm fast asleep)

My BFFs were still sleeping when I ring their hotel room doorbell. I can't really remember if it was BFF Xin or BFF Le who opened the door. She was like "Ohh! We haven't bathe yet. Everyone's still asleep" So, my family and I went to have our breakfast first. And NYONYA COLOURS!

I recommend you to try out this restaurant, especially during breakfast. IT'S AWESOMEEE!


Here's what we eat for breakfast! We had porridge, toast, half-boiled eggs and chee cheong fan with our desired milo drinks! Enjoyable meal at Nyonya Colours! When it was 9am, the queue was very LONGG! But luckily we reached there early! Haha.










After my meal, we met my BFFs and their family. So they were going to have their breakfast at some restaurant. However, the youngest in the family aged 3 years old, did not want to have his breakfast because he drank his milk! Then, in order to let them have their breakfast quickly, my parents and I have to entertain him first! We walked all around First World Plaza. He wanted to see the performance on the stage, but there's no performance yet as it is still early. After that we went back to find BFFs' family, I think they had their breakfast at the restaurant that they first went because their orders were very slow. So they changed to the restaurant and ordered something. By the time we came back again, they started eating! So I'm glad, but the youngest boy. Hmm.. I should just call him "young boy", I don't want to call him "baby" because he's not, and he is smart! I don't want to call him "boy" because it's kind of rude? I don't like people calling me "girl". LOL..

Okay.. So, the young boy keep insisting to sit  the Reindeer ride. My mum and I followed him, and I sat with him! Luckily, the ride is slow, more enough time for my BFFs and their family to finish their breakfast. But surprisingly, the young boy was really very quiet. But of course, you still have to entertain him! For example, tell him what's this, like every angle he sees. I just don't want him to stand up. Nonono, that can't happen!!





Scenery of the Reindeer ride, nothing much.








I finally got to play with my BFFs, like finally! So the second ride is the Euro Express. At first, I thought it was scary. Like some trills with it. I keep on screaming. LOL.. Because their acceleration damn fast which will move yourself either towards your left or right depending on which direction the rollar coaster goes. First ride I sat in the middle, the impact of yourself moving towards your left or right isn't that big. Second ride, sitting at the 2nd most back, the impact is HUGE. Yes, HUGE!!



After that we went to Rio Float?





Pictures of the scenery!













Next, we saw the performance performed by dinosaurs? They actually performed "What the fox say" but sadly, I didn't record it! Their mouth actually moved, the dinosaurs' mouth! Like.. WOW..





And a magician show!







Some other pictures while watching the performance!





Let me show you the Outdoor Theme Park, it's demolished and in construction till 2016 ):






Other rides which is too small for me!



And I bought pancakes!! I LOVE IT!!





 How First World Hotel looks like...



After that, we went to GenTing Highlands to have our lunch. We were addicted by the number of arcade games which is very very difficult to win a prize! We tried once of spinning the wheel. But we ended up giving up, Also, it's very crowded!

We had lunch at "Lao Di Fang" 老地方 Overall, I'm still satisfied of the meal! Awesomee~





Walking back to First World Plaza





I'm not sure about the order of the events. Here's the picture of us going to watch the 4D Adventure, "The Little Prince" Not scary at all! LOL. Some fairy tale shows..





This package includes 1 big photo, 3 small photos and 1 keychain. Woohoo. I got the keychain! Memories memories..
For 40RM!! Kind of cheap? But they printed for us! So, I guess we had to buy it?

We watched the movie "Frozen" and it was awesome!! I really liked the show a lot! All about sisters and love. Oohh.. I love -love movies, as in cartoon ones. LOL.. I didn't take a picture of the movie, sadly.

After that, we went back to our hotel rooms to bathe and get ready for dinner. Of course, we camwore(camhore) AGAIN!





And, we had dinner at Coffee Terance. It is an international buffet. Actually my BFFs' uncle say I'm a child, but I didn't hear. So the counter asked me how old am I. Have to answer honestly right? Because lying is a sin ._.

Here's some photos. BE JEALOUS!



Hold on, some SELFIES~! XD













Photos around the restaurant/ food~~












Night scenery blehh :b









After that we went to buy the movie tickets at First Complex Movie of "Everyone's Business" I thought Dr JiaJia will be part of the movie, but only 1/8 of it. But still, FUNNY! A very funny movie! HAHAHA.. I keep laughing. However, the part where there's flooding and the poop comes out of the toilet bowl and drain is kind of digusting.  >.<

By the time the movie ended it's already past midnight. My first time staying up at midnight. Wee~



My OOTD that day...

Photos we saw outside the window, I mean outside the lobby window..



What we saw at the Outdoor Theme Park!









The Haunted House, I guess!






I shall end this with a photo of the mountains and clouds. A once in a lifetime experience. Part 3's entry will be a little shorter. Because we don't have many events going on. So stay tune!

Thank you for reading this entry, and take care!
