So So Many happenings

Craving: Funnel Cake

Whoa! There has just been so much going on over the past couple of weeks (Hmmm...I seem to be starting alot of my posts like this don't I...need to think up new and exciting intros!) Actually it's mostly to do with last week.

First off I had the opportunity to stay in the recently opened 5 star One World Hotel last friday.


Located next to the One Utama shopping mall, it is so new that parts of the deco and one of the restraunts were not ready when I was staying there. I was staying there as part of the hotel's trial run, courtesy of a friend who is working there. I have to say I quite like the place. There were quite a few of us initially, and so we had two ajoining rooms. The girls took one room while the guys took the other one. We had a mini party up there and brought blue drinks and all sorts of tidbits up there. Spent the night chatting away and had lots of fun. (I wish I could convey better how much fun I was really having!!!!) Next morning we had a complementary breakfast, and though the spread was good (there was salmon and delicious cold cuts, beef bacon, dim sum and more!), there were certain areas that could be improved. The omelette was slow in the making though there were only two of us waiting and flies were seen in the pastry section.

So after breakfast Yueen San and myself headed off to meet up with another group of friends for a trip to Malacca. There were nine of us and we drew lots to split up into two cars. Josh, Shelby, Yueen San and myself in one car, while Sam, Jee Lee, Li Yee and the Wengs were in the other car. And so at 8:45am or so (45 minutes past our designated departure time) we left for Malacca. Now on the way there, we recieved a phone call from Aliza who had just check out of the hotel. Apparently, this left over monopoly money that we thought was just junk could actually have been used at the hotel!!!! RM300+ down the drain! *Sob* Oh well..what a wasted opportunity of the life time. Hehehe..

Ok back to Malacca. The trip was basically one long long long makan trip. Even before we were done with one meal, we were thinking of the next. We had Chicken Rice Ball, Cendol, Nonya Laksa, Baba Laksa, Satay Celup, Dim Sum, "Char Kueh", Roti Canai, Cincaluk Omelette, Pongteh Chicken, Sambal Squid, Tofu, Cookies, and I'm sure some other stuff that I missed out. It really was great fun though especially with all nine of us crammed into one room. Even getting the room was an adventure in itself. Hahaha. It really was an experience. Definately one for the memories, thanks for inviting me along guys. I was actually gonna give a more detailed version of the happenings in Malacca, but I just got too lazy...hehe. :P
