PD

When people think of Port Dickson, they associate it with beach. A really really dirty beach.

Guess what? I went there and what I saw was a really dirty and colourful beach littered with plastic bag in any colour possible. So much for wanting to play in the sea and building sand castles.

But no fear! Our hotel makes up for the horrendous looking beach.

(Doesn't look horrendous but pictures always make ugly things look pretty. When you walk up close to the beach you see black fragments floating around. Such a turn off =< )

Grand Lexis Hotel (formerly known as The Legend International Water Homes). It's awesome because...


Not because it's on the sea...

 Not because it has colourful slides in kiddy pools... (Which I played in yay!)

But because every room has it's own private pool =D

It is tiny but still, it's pretty cool ;) Figuratively and also literally. Because this private pool is not really exposed to the sun, it was freezing when we went in for a dip (impossible to swim in it). I almost had flu after swimming it in but luckily I didn't.

The view of the 'water homes' at night. Love the full moon for making this photo so gorgeous...

Full moon!

Random photos... Lazy to caption XD





Overall experience there was ok.

But I wouldn't come here again =S I guess people come to this hotel for the novelty factor... The fact that there is a private pool in every room. But other than the pool, there is not much there to offer. And the buffet breakfast there is not really nice =S

I wanna go a real beach soon!!! >=O Somewhere I can swim in and build sandcastles on =(

How I became a barista and how it's like working as one.

It surprises me that people still don't know what does 'barista' means. Barista is defined as ' a person whose job involves preparing and serving different types of coffee'. I was working as one for 5 months and basically, I make coffee and serve it to customers. It's my longest job to date, providing me something legal to do and earning some pocket money during my wait (still waiting for at time of writing. 9 months and counting.) (I'm putting the word 'legal' in because I'm still feeling a bit bitter about the fact that some of my friends actually took the opportunity to do illegal locum. Hey ho, that's people to you.) After my final professional examination (which was in August 2015), I told myself to enjoy my holidays but as usual, I got bored and restless and found myself a job as a research assistant. But it wasn't a satisfying job because: 1. I have to travel all the way to PJ on weekdays. 2. Get stuck in the jam for a total

SOULed OUT

I'm gonna talk about FOOD again! My favourite blogging topic muahahaha. I have other passions too but there are all pretty... Scientific? Haha they will bore you to death. So yea, food is the best topic to blog about =) Especially here in Malaysia food connects us all. I've only met a person who doesn't enjoy eating (WHY!?). She is weird (You know who you are haha) First, a HUGE cup of coffee to awaken your senses. My daddy always order a kopi O whenever possible. I think he fancies himself as a Kopi O connoisseur haha =3 But I keep my distance from coffee. Coffee makes me jittery and anxious. Even drinking tea makes my heart go on overdrive grr. Mummy has been wanting to visit SOULed OUT since awhile ago but we just didn't get around to visiting the place, until today. SOULed OUT has two branches but we went to the one in Sri Hartamas. Took us quite some time (and a lot of help from iPhone's Maps application) but we manage to find the place. The location

Cool air

Because nothing beats naturally cool weather =) Was up in Cameron Highlands last weekend. And on the way up we realised: My bro has car sickness. That aside, it was a very uneventful trip. My dad thought me something too! Have you ever seen step-like slopes along the roads that are cut out from the mountains? Those are known as... Ba... Err, I forgot. But you know what it is. Apparently according to Malaysian regulations, they must not be more than 6 per slope and each step must not be more than 6 meters high. But that's not the case for most of the slopes. Please, those slopes are SO high you cannot possibly limit the steps to only 6! So, like most Malaysian rules, it can be altered to suit the case. You know, altered. Anyway, engineering is fascinating =) Especially about airports! And my dad loves them too. I suspect I'm very much like my dad. When he loves something he will babble on and on and on about it, usually to a person who will not be listening to him at all. Ki
