~Enjoying Life~

This year Winter Solstice festival or in Chinese 'tung jitt' very special for me. I'm going to do a special 'tong yuen' - my own style 'tong yuen'.

I woke up early to help mum prepare 'tong yuen'. Also doing my own style of 'tong yuen' for lao po.

First of all, mum prepared something like plasticine for me.
Then I started to shape it.
Next for my own style, I placed some chocolate in it.
Here's the 'tong yuen' with chocolate.
Two bowl.

Thanks to Evinn Soo, I get new working experience this holiday. All the job I did involve with movie. First is Movie Fan.tasy at e-Curve. We promote 6 movies which are Avatar, Alvin n Chipmunks, Storm Warriors, Tooth Fairy, Sherlock Holmes and Percy Jackson.

The crew.
Our working place.
Competition, acting Sherlock Holmes.
Just for fun, acting Storm Warrior.
The scene when Chipmunks appeared.
Next job would be Storm Warriors premier screening at Mid Valley. Meet lots of actors, DJ and bank industries VIP.
DJ Ngan Mei Yan and Nicholas.
DJ Rudy and Rex.
VVVVIP, my boss from MyPartner.
Our job is pass the sword to actors, DJ and VIP. Boring!
Then I worked for CinemaOnline at Tesco Semenyih (ulu place). Our stage - very different from Movie Fan.tasy
When it is crowded.
Need to act as pirate to take photo with kid.
Have to act model.
Also have to act director.

I always wanted to travel East Malaysia for holiday. When my family planed for Kuching trip, I was excited.

However, I found Kuching not the destination I'm looking for. The city is so quiet and boring, the only thing that is fun is going with family. Luckily there is a cinema right in front of our hotel.

This time I travel there with MAS - the fun part with family is no need to worry about budget.
My brother just sprained his leg before the trip. At least he get first class treatment during our flight with MAS.Meal in MAS make me think of AirAsia.
The famous Rajang River from the sky.
I always tell my friends about Sarawak as 'Land of HeadHunters'. The trip to Sarawak confirm my theory. I got the change to take some REAL skull photo.
Chinese museum at Kuching, the only one in Malaysia. I wonder why? Anyway, the museum is not interesting.
Best thing about Sarawak is their artwork. Get a change to visit pottery factory.
Orang Utan reserve forest, only 2 in Malaysia.
The tour guide said it would be lucky if we manage to see one as those Orang Utan wont appear during fruit season. I manage to take one photo, consider lucky or not?
This is our tour bus.
Family members taking photo with the statue of animal I hate the most. The youngest 'aunty' is my mother.Kuching city view? Sorry ah, this is Bangkok City view, the bottom only is Kuching City view.
River bank view.
Overall, I give 1star for night life, 3star for food and 5star for culture and art craft. The next time I would tried nature adventure at East Malaysia instead of those city trip.

Today is the day I waiting for, we are going to Pattaya - Asia Sin City....Woohoo! Early in the morning we went bus station to take bus. I was so excited to go Pattaya, my parents honeymoon location.
This is the 'taxi' available at Patthaya.
It's fun here although there are lots of 'yan yiu'. The city is along the bay and beautiful. This is where those foreign all around the world came and have sex. You can see all kind of 'couple' here. Foreign holding local girl or guy. We spent our two night here, went to the beach, shopping, floating market and beer again.

Beautiful Patthaya beach.
I saw this photo in my father honeymoon album, posing like him.
There is reason this shirt is invented.
European girl 'kurang sambutan' here. Please la, this is Asean, they don't want European girl. We went up but no customer at all.
The 'lan ciao' girl. See what she playing with.
The next day, we went to Koa Larn - an island located nearby.
In the evening, we went to Patthaya Floating Market.
On the last day, we get ourselves ready back to KL. View from the shopping mall.
In the airport.
Our last backpacker group photo. Bye bye Thailand, will be back in the future.

Today we need to wake up early as we are going to Ayutaya - 'The WAT WAT WAT City'. The city is about 80km from Bangkok. It is an ancient city full of ruin wat (temple).

We went there by taxi as there are no bus available.
The journey took us 45 minutes. As we reached there, I was amazed by those ruined temple. I wondered how beautiful would it look like in the pass.

We ventured different kind of 'wat' or temple such as Wat Yoichaimongkol, Wat Chai Watthanaram, Wat Phu Khao Thong, Gigantic Redining Buddha, Wat Mongkhon Bophit, and Wat Phra Sri Sanphet.
Local food.
This head statue in the tree attracted us the most. The statue is so important that the authority put two security to guard it.

In the afternoon, we went back to Bangkok to visit Chaktuchat, the largest weekend market in Bangkok. This is the place I spent the most in Bangkok, around 2000bt buying souvenir for family and friends.
At night, we put on our nice clothes to go pub and watch tiger show but we end up being conned by a taxi driver who bought us go watch a stupid cibai fucking tiger show. It was damn damn damn fucking ugly that I don't want to elaborate.
As this is our last night in Bangkok, we went again to Soi(road Cowboy again and this time we choose the correct pub (thanks to ShiWei), the girls here were pretty and sexy. We drank beer and enjoy those exotic dance BUT didn't do anything wrong.

Last weekend, Alvin and the Chipmunks make a hit when they appeared at e-Curve Movie Fan.tasy!

Fans rushing into e-Curve like never before. Apart from having life ban performance, they also had photo taking session with fans.
This weekend is even more interesting. They are having more surprise here, there will be chipmunks dancing contest and the prize is absolutely attractive.
Dont miss it as there are only 3 sets of limited edition Alvin and the Chipmunks dolls. All you need to do is dance like a chipmunks at e-Curve on Saturday, 8pm.

Our first stop for second day was shopping. Completely amazed with it, those shopping center are huge and connected together through sky bridge.

Around our hotel...
Shopping district...
Underwater world...
Then we took boat ride at the heart of Bangkok, ChaoPhraya River.
Backpacker...
Manage to take photo with the army. Their army look small size than us.
Next stop was KaoShan road, where those backpacker wander. It was like a heaven for backpacker. Every pub and bar full of foreign having beer.
Chinatown! The Chinatown is smaller than Malaysia but at least we can hear some Mandarin and Cantonese here. We had all kind of nice food here.We had our dinner at Baiyoke Sky Tower, Thailand highest building. It was so worth as we had buffet style dinner at 83th floor for only 300bt. In lobby, they provide everyone of us one box to fill in whatever food we like and then bring it to the top.
After we back to hotel, we went for massage. Only me, Kenny and KangWai went for it. It feel so relaxing although it was old lady that massage for me.
