Tarbush @Bukit Bintang

Casey, Jamie, Siao Han and I were rounding the streets of KL in search for food. But most of them preferred fine dine instead of the usual coffee shops that is famous for their food (Jalan Alor & Jalan Tengkat Tungshin). I myself who isn't familiar with the roads in KL decides to find a place there to dine at all cost. I told them in advance that it was all gonna be random!

Stumble into the Lebanese Restaurant, Tarbush at Bukit Bintang. It is at the same row as Pavillion for your info. We have no idea what's good in this place, so I asked for their best recommendation. Remember, don't simply order! They told us that some food doesn't taste good for us Malaysians.

That's Casey for you

The bread took out so much space in my stomach. Thank goodness Jamie and I were sharing the nasi briyani together. I couldn't even finish it with Jamie's help...imagine. Those Arabic man could finish em' all! Heavy man, heavy

Indulge in this middle eastern food and you'll be amazed by its quality. You are really paying for what you're eating. There is no compromise in their food, drinks and services. Of course it comes with a big price tag haha. Well, once a while + experience is really not so bad after all. Oh ya, you'll need a great company that enjoys food as well. :)

After dinner, the girls decided to take a stroll around Bukit Bintang. Snap several spontaneous, scenery, portrait, and 'modeling' pictures. Everyone was practically watching the world cup while we were busy taking pictures and randomly walking around town. Returned home when everyone is tired and lazy after much food taken haha.

Wall Climbing @Shah Alam

Organized the wall climbing activity last Saturday. It's like a must for me to have this weekend outing every week before I leave to any parts of Malaysia. Two weeks ago, Honsam, Jamie, Aidil and I went to Sungai Tekala, Semenyih for some cool body chilling water session. Ok, so here are some information that you'll need to know about this Shah Alam Extreme Park.

Operating hours: 10am - 7pm everyday. 7pm onwards for experience climbers
Contact number: 03-55101787 (Office)
Package taken: Family package (5-10 ppl)
Price: RM12/per person + RM40 for 2 instructors + 2 hours session

Those who went are Kevin, Sidharth, Aidil, Honsam, Syekit, Siao Han and I (7 in total). The calculation would be ((RM12 x 7) + RM40) / 7 = RM17.71. 18 bucks for 2 hours climb! Worth it.

Experience would be the best part of the climb. There are 3 walls for beginners. I managed to climb two walls only, cause the last one was really difficult. =.=''. Stick close to the walls and climb up as soon as you can before you start wearing out if you stay any longer on those walls. Chalk your hands too, it's free! Just ask them for chalks. Never wall climb before? This is where you should head to! :)

Taylors?

Went to Taylors Lakeside campus ytd for a tour after lunch with Jason and Yao Huang. Overall it was pretty good. Library was the best part of it definitely. The place was cooling and nice. Lecture hall was great, since it is equipped with centralized airconds making it even more cooling especially on a hot day.

Kandang lembu beside the campus! Lolz, that's a little "Perlis" over there. But no match when it comes to people, leisure and fun with a huge price tag. Engineering courses are almost close to RM13,000 per semester. Well, if only I was that lucky haha...

Would anyone even follow this =.=''

Final semester results!

For 3 years, the Marcus have managed to endure much suffering and pain in his effort of studying really hard for his papers. The only reason he is striving really hard is because of one thing - To escape UniMAP for the next 3 years of his degree programme. Nothing has ever kept him going all out.

As he was watching the computer screen loading the webpage accessing to his results, he was a little surprised to obtained a 4.00 for his Industrial Training programme which takes up 6 credit hours. Expected a 3.67 (A-), his prayers were answered. Amen to that!

Since first class honours would either be 3.67/3.75, he managed to pass both borders with an average CGPA of 3.78. He felt a sense of relieve after all those challenges he has endured as an urban kid living in a kampung area. The Marcus is really grateful to all his friends and family members that has helped, supported, and encouraged him in all aspects of his studies & life. Thank you so much :)

Reunion Trip @Genting

Day #1 - Where it all begins

Us the ex-form 6ers from SMK Seafield reunites! Ying Wai had organized this last year but I didn't make it. It's like a 'must' for him to visit Genting every year. There are 14 of us in total where we stayed in First World Hotel - 3 days 2 night. My room mates are Bryan & Jen Chong. Took us approximately 1 hour for us to check in upon arrival.

1
They entertained us :)


It's funny how Yew Ken requested them to sing "Sorry, sorry" by Super Junior and "Gee" by SNSD. "We can't sing korean songs" said the clowns. Haha, it's okay. You can just sing the english version of it (buffalaxed). I'll freaking drop money into your hat for sure!

2

Nothing much happen on the first day. Most of us were either sleeping or walking around. I was sleeping cause I took the frigging cough mixture. Word spread around so fast. It came to a point where everyone was just coming to me and saying "Hey, you sleep sleep only ah whole evening!". Haha, look I can't help it. I was unwell but thank goodness I didn't allow it to ruin my whole trip.


Day #2 - The Climax

Had breakfast early in the morning with the gang. Something really funny happen! I know it's a little difficult to differentiate between sugar and salt, but nothing beats the one and only man who took pepper instead of creamer for his coffee. Here's our winner, Mr. Pang UKen!!!

3
The picture says it all


Alright, so here is how it all happened:
  1. Our friend put two packets of "sugar" into his coffee without realizing it!
  2. Next, he put in his "creamer". Guess what? He even told us this "Eh, why the creamer black colour?, ahh dun care la". HAHAHA
  3. Once the recipe is completed, the dude decided to have a taste of his very own cocktail.
  4. One sip of his coffee and he goes "Eeeeeuuuuu!!!, What the heck" *Take a look at the packets he threw into his coffee*. "Salt & pepper!?? #$$@%&*!!!" Hahahaha, omg all of us started laughing like there's no tomorrow

The group was then divided into two - Theme park & Random. I was with the random group cause the theme park was jam packed it seems. Played bumper car and bowling. Rest of the time, jalan jalan cari fun.

This picture is awesome!

Later at night, all of us gathered and head to the arcade. I personally think that the only fun thing in the arcade is the basketball and punching game. After that, some of us wanted to try our luck entering the casino. The successful ones were Wai Kit, Ken Nie, Shao Li and finally Ying Wai. If you asked me about the ones who didn't make it through, this is it.

5
Tak puas hati!

6
It's depressing :(


Ditched, thrown aside and so called "Kids waiting for parents to come out of casino", we waited patiently for our friends to get out of the casino. There's also one thing funny about Vivek and Yew Ken. Yew Ken tried to sneak in with Vivek but the guard stopped Vivek instead and ask him for his PASSPORT!!! I think Yew Ken kantoi-ed later but guess he slipped through the first guard. It looks as if Vivek was an immigrant Zzz damn babi man those guards hahaha

night

night2


Something evil happen! This round, See Ya-Pei the innocent girl crushed a moth with her foot accidentally. The poor moth was white in color and was regarded as a paper by some =.=''. Yew Ken wasn't happy, so he decided to say a little prayer for the moth while speaking to Ya Pei.

3b
The little monster haha!

7
Look at its blood...


Did some jump shots, chats and enjoy the cool breeze outside Genting & Highland hotel. The weather wasn't as cooling as last time anymore. But anyway, we enjoyed the company and fun we had together. Since it was our last night, some of them decided not to sleep but to Black Jack all night long till 5am.

Day #3 - The Final Chapter

I slept all the way from 5am - 11.00am. Woke up and finished up the buns I've bought 2 days ago. Later, the girls came in and we had the jumping photo shoot on the bed. Nasib baik tak kena kipas!

8
Jen Chong is like super excited haha

9
After so many tries, finally :D

10
Grace & Pek Yee


Since we have about 4 more hours to go before heading back to KL, the group decided play bumper car. I wasn't cornered by anyone this time. Guess what happen the day before? I was cornered by all 4 friends of mine at the same time! Stuck for about 10 secs and more. Teruk kena aim siut.

11

12
Friendship for the past 3 years and still growing!

14b


Since it was my first time taking the Flying Coaster, I felt goosebumps all over. Pretty nice feeling since you don't get the thrill that often. It was awesome but the potong stim part was Grace laughing all the way! I was screaming like a women and she just kept on laughing =.=''. Warned by Ying Wai, proven by me.

14
My 1st ride of the Flying Coaster. Yes I'm noob

13
Yew Ken, Me, Vivek and Ying Wai

16
And she was still laughing!!!

Later, some of us headed to MacD and some went to KFC for lunch. Two pictures were caught in MacD's. One was caught without knowing what happen exactly haha!

18
What a real men should do?

shao li

If you look at Shao Li's expression, it's just priceless! While I was facing the camera towards her, she gave a nice sweet smile. But things get ugly when I said "I was taking video!". Hahaha! She fell for it...

19

Headed back home around 4.00pm. Worst part is the KTM station...as always? Though I was coughing and feeling tired, it was worth all those fun, company and joy. I'm just grateful to know each and everyone of them from SMK Seafield (2007) in just 2 months.
