Jz change a new look for my blog, have you noticed that? Its so hard for me to made decision which template to use as i am very choosy, finally choosed one but there are still a lot of others that are nice also >.< shall change it more often!
 
There goes our footstep all around, part 2 ^.^ Cameron Highland It was a beautiful sunday morning, we drove to cameron highland after sunday service and lunch. This is just nice to escape from the hot weather in the afternoon. It took us around 2 hrs to reach.
 
 

First stop: Avant chocolate
I had been to cameron highland for a few times but nvr visit this chocolate shop before because most of time we aim for strawberry only. So, this is my first visit to here. It is located jz at the road side before you reach tanah rata, cameron highland. There are a lot of chocolate inside here and also some snacks. I had tried a lot of samples inside, free mah XDD We bought a pack of durian chocolate and fried oyster mushroom. The price is reasonable^.^





Second stop: Cameron Valley
Cameron valley has big tea plantation and visitors are allowed to around. There are two Cameron valley, you can spot one if you come from tapah way and the other one if you come from simpang pulai way. I had been went to both but i prefered the one from simpang pulai, because the tea plantation is so steep that you hardly walk away. However, it has less parking space, as you can see, most of the car parked at the roadside.

There is a cafe and we had our tea time there, we ordered a chocolate brownie with vanilla icecream and a chocolate cake. The chocolate cake was normal, but the other impressed me as the brownie was served in hot with vanila icecream. Having cup of tea and slice of cake with this beautiful scenery is awesome!

The is the tea that we had, its iced tea produced by Cameron valley, it has 3 favors, strawberry, apple and mango. The strawberry is quite nice and this is really cheap, rm2 per bottle. If you are a tea lover or you wan to but some gift for frens and family, cameron valley tea leaves is always a good choice. Cameron valley produces the wellknown-BOH tea and it was given to Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton during their last visit to Malaysia.

Third stop: Strawberry farm
Strawberry farm, cactus farm, butterfly farm and others are all along the road. If you got time, then you can visit each of them. But, we jz picked one with flowers, cactus, vegetables, strawberries all in one. Flowers in cameron highland is always attractive.
There is a cafe there too, so we go for our second round tea time! We ordered a strawberry fried icecream, strawberry icecream, and a strawberry coffee. All in strawberry.



Then we had food again, mashmallow and strawberries with chocolate topping. This is way too sweet for me >.< But, the strawberry is quite nice as it is not as sour as the one that i had last time.

Strawberry corner, we didn pay a visit to here. But, i remember this a jz a normal gift shop. We jz dropped by and took some pics because i found this is the best looking fake strawberry in cameron highland. Others are like carrot or mutated strawberry to me XD lol
Last stop: Market
There are a lot of market along the way as well, we choosed the one with more shops and people. If you go on saturday that you could visit the cameron valley night market. But, the day markets open everyday. You could find a lot of strawberry goods here such as strawberry pillow, jam, pen, chocolate blablabla.

We bought a lot of good food from there. The fried sweet potato is nice, 10 for rm3. Then the strawberry, rm4 per box. If you buy more, then you could probaly buy it at cheaper price. We bought corns as well. This is highly recommended, this corn is very sweet that the one that we normally have and it can be eaten raw.

And last, i got some roses from the love-one. hehee, how swett \(^.^)/ Roses in cameron highland is very cheap, you can get a bunch from RM3-8 depends on the color and the size. Thx dear!!!


 
Alright, that all from me for the part 2. Part 3 is coming ^^


Footstep all around part 1 - setiawan and pulau pangkor

October and november are both blessed months to me.
Said goodbye to october and welcome to november.

semester break,
celebrated my birthday
and
the love-one came.

Yay! the love-one came!
So, this make up my November!
 
We had good time together, we went to a lot of places.
Okay, without hesitate, lets share with you our footsteps all around!
 
First stop: Setiawan, a hoo-chew town,
Hunting for Setiawan famous local food - Gom-pyang!This is the one that my local friend from setiawan told me here got the best gompyang. It can be find easily, it is a yellow building behind Wisma Ganda Setiwan which u cn find in GPS or google map.
 

It was a long queue when we reached there, it must be very famous because most of them are tourists. By the time we reached, it almost fiinished >.<


Luckily we still get to buy the amount that we want. If it is sold out, you can wait for next round, about 45 minutes later. Or you can book it earlier so that you wont back with dissapointment.


The filling is fried onion, this is super duper nice as it is served in hot! I am from a typical hoo-chew town, Sibu. Our famous local food is also gompyang, but ours is very much different with the one that i had in setiawan. Ours filling is minced pork or pork slice. Some people even prefered 'kosong' one, means they can put in cheese, butter or whatever they want. Sure going to introduce the sibu's kompia one day, ya i promise if i remember that, haha


We had lunch in setiawan, red-wine-mee-sua, a setiawan local food too. The red wine mee sua is instead very very red, i thk they added a lot of red wine inside. Besides that, the chicken that we had inside the mee-sua is fried chicken. This is very special and cheap, RM3.5 per serving.


Not to forget to introduce you the best chili in setiawan, this is really nice but we didn bought that cz we both r nt chili lover.

Second stop: Pulau Pangkor
After filling our stomach, we head to Pulau Pangkor. You hv to take ferry from lumut jetty to pulau pangkor, and lumut is very near to setiawan, ab 30minute driving.


Return ticket for the ferry is rm10 for adult, the ferry will go once its more than half fill.
So its depends on your luck, if the last ferry jz depart then you will have to wait in the ferry for some time until its more than half filled. Each way might take you around 40-45minutes to reach.

Camwhore while waiting, we saw a lot of tourist that day, most probaly due to the public holiday on friday. So, it takes us quite a long time to find a parking slot.

Pangkor is a fishing village, as you going to reach pangkor, you will see many fishing boat.


Welcome to pangkor, as we steped on this island, we were welcomed by the beautiful landscape of the jetty.

Our first planning was going around using taxi, but we turned out renting a motor. Because taxi is too expensive, and we had only 2person, we might need to share a taxi with other ppl, which means we mz tolerate with others time. So, we decide to go on Plan B (random emergency plan ;P)
We rented a motor for 2 hrs, this cost us rm20 >.< This is expensive!!! As i checked from website, the rental for motor is only rm30 for whole day. so rm20 for 2 hrs is very very very very expensive.
But, we have no choice, if you want to get a cheaper one, you can walk further to the shop ab 200 feet away from jetty which cost u ab rm5 one hr only.

 
There is only one road in pangkor island, so you will nvr get lost. And the total length of road in pangkor is just 14km. But, some of the road are quite steep, so check ur brake frequently. Motor is always a better choice than skuter.

Nvm, just move on. We get a map from the local, take a pics and here we go!! Tadaaa, Dutch port of pangkor island. One of the tourism spot of the island.



Then, we went to the miniature great wall of china, this is behind the famous temple in pangkor, the fu-li-gong. We didn visit the temple, take a few pics with the miniature great wall of china. This is quite unique, and its really really small. We were like giant man going to detroy the world. hahaa



Next, the beach! There are a lot of beaches in pangkor island. The famous one are Teluk Nipah beach and Pasir Gombak beach. Nature lover might prefers Teluk Nipah as it has a lot of corals and others while Pasik Gombak beach is more suitable for youngs as it has more water sports such as snorkelling, banana boat, speed boat, volley ball and others. Actually we wanted to go for snorkelling, and i checked the price from website is ab RM20 per pax. But again, because we hv only 2 ppl and we gt to rent the whole ship for snorkelling which will cost us ab rm120 per ship. The ship can fit mininum 6pax, then only rm20 per pax as i said jz nw. We couldnt find anyone to share with us, so we jz stay at the beach.
I like beach because we do not have one is sibu. I like family trip to beach so that we can have a lot of fun, bbq and so on there. But, too bad, my dad is so much against the sun, so we nvr hv such gathering. I will brg my child there one day! hehee^^





After so much of fun, we left pangkor at the evening. We didn stay over a night in pangkor, but this is recommended, a bbq dinner and a night walk along the beach is awesome.

Bck from island and we move on to highland, stay tune for part 2! ;P Till then, enjoy reading ;DD
 
 

New Breakthrough

Remember last post i said, i had a great breakthrough while turning 21 ?
Here it is.
I actually permed my hair XDD
Actually i wanted to do that few years before,
but i am scare that is too mature for me >.<
So, i jz forget ab that.

As i turn 21, i go for it!
Yea, wat a great breahthrough!
You know why? if it didn turned out as wat u expected,
i mean it makes you mature,
the you can have an excuse, blame ur birthday.
'21 ma XDD'

But, gratefully, i am satisfies with the outcome.
It is a digital cold perm if i'm not wrong.
So glad that i didn regret ^.^
It was really my first try other than having those temperory perm.


However, there is always a price to pay.
Since i permed my hair, i got to apply cream on my hair after bath and dried it.
I bought a JS Volume Up Gel, its a purple round bottle,
This is very nice, it makes you curls looks natural when its dried.
But, you curls may not last long as you apply those cream that would harden when dried.
Besides that, i bought a dispenser to dried my curly hair.
Normal hair dryer cant do the job because the wind is too concentrated.
I spend a total of RM255 on my head including the cream and the dispenser.

I thk i am a smart consumer and this is cheap enough. XDD

For three years we cnt celebrate the actual birthday together, but u promised to hv it everyyear after these. ^^ Distance makes us apart and love holds us together.

Next, thx my lovely sista for the small yet warm celebration. We had know each other for nine years, we spends a lot of memories with cheers n tears together. We are friends, we are families!^^



Move on, thx my bro n sis in Christ. When i was talking on phone with my dear, we heard a loud crash outside my room followed by a electric short circuit. This really tricked me! I thought it was an accident that crash into the tiang outside, oh well perhaps i have too much imagination>.< This was really a suprise, thx fren! ^^

On the birthday itself, the laopo that slp beside me told me nt to expect too much for the celebration. Lol, this is way too funny. Ok, i try not to expect too much ;P On that day, everything went normal n i had a lot of class that day>.< When it comes to the evening, the laopo asked me again, do u thk sook thing them will celebrate with u? ohh babeee, how m i going to answer? LOL! She asked me to dress up nicely but nt too nice at the same time, LOL again.

Okay, i am ready n yet the lady started to get crazy. She said she was pretty nervous that time because she scared the plan will fail. Take it easy la, ah moi XDDD
Then, she covered my eyes. And ... i dun knw what happened? Then, we reached, as she opened the eyecover, guess what?
I am bck to the hse again, ya, bck to home! BUT, with most of my classmate, n a half way set up bbq party! Awwwwww.....Thx la laopo ;) Love you love you love you! Thx everyone who came ^^

 
The efforts behind really touched me! She went to buy the fishball, hotdog... yesterday night alone! and she told me she went for dinner, end up she didn had her dinner! The laopo n kaijun went to buy chicken wing early in morning on 5am! yes, 5am! then, kaijun sent the chicken wing to my hse when we were off to campus. And qingqing marinated it. Everything was done without my knowing, including inviting everyone to come.

And, the day was over, n i m satisfied and feel blessed with all these. The next day when i went home, there was candle light, cake, birthday song from my room again, hahaa Its the other sweetheart, Felicia! Thx sweetie!^^
 
Lastly, not to forget the hsemate who prepared the birthday breakfast.
Glad to have that as he seldom walks his talk ;P
Haha, indead he is a very goog guy,
still single and available.
Lelong lelong! LOL XDD
 
LAST LAST LAST,

Thx God for putting sooooo many angels around me.
Without anyone of you,
my life might not be so filled ^^
