Bestfriend's birthday celebration!

Birthday celebrations get increasingly challenging each year.

I mean, you already gave your best last year, what to do this year ?! 

And the fact that some people are making birthdays such big and fancy dates, 

it just kinda stresses ordinary&humble girl like me, out :p

No I'm not talking bout my birthday la.. but my friend's! 

I want them to feel special and loved on their big day, not having anything less than what they saw other people did on social media lols. Seriously eveything that people post on social media kinda gives us 无形的压力

Maybe its just me.

Cut to the chase!

So two weeks before my best friend Weiwei's birthday,

I casually messaged her boyfriend on FB asking what was he getting her for birthday,

I don't wanna get the same thing laaaaa in case crash gifts right.

Then he was like 

"eh, why don't we plan a surprise for her?" 

I was like yea cool.

Then we contacted her close friends from her college, her colleagues (who couldn't make it :/) 

We decided on waiting her at a cafe(without her knowing) while her boyfriend brings her out to lepak,

by the time we're ready then he'll bring her here and give her the excuse of chilling.. 

It went pretty messy because.. you'll find out later! Just keep reading! :p

First thing first, of course, we got heliums!  Hohoho

It's becoming one of the birthdays "must-have" prop.

Not only do they look great in photos, THEIR SO FASCINATING AND MAKE EVERYTHING BETTER :3

Here's Simay paying for the balloons bcos I had no cash at all wtf #worstfriendever

We made reservations at a cafe in town but we had to go all the way to Bayan Lepas to get em heliums! 

Jie drives ok

I was like seriously? Totally different roads lor. I was so cranky and..

*drum rolls*   the moment I saw these little shits I was like yea it's worth it.

HAHAHA don't know why ah they just got the power to make people happy!  :D

It's a home-based business. Anyone that wants their number can come ask me on my facebook!

This guy was helping us to stuff the balloons into the car, which, turned out to be a very bad idea..

Please excuse my Sam Poh, I pull it out when I drive bcos I hate how seat belt presses it against my chest

LOOK AT THOSE BALLOONS THEIR LIKE SUPER TIN TEH LOOOO how am I gonna drive like this! 

No need to look at the back mirror MEH. So dangerous   ://

Then how ah, I drive a little car nia so there's really not much space..

deng deng deng**

Cus YOLO. Hahaha! 

And it's the only way.

As good-looking as these heliums are but they're actually pains in the ass.

Keep tangled altogether and it made them unable to fly up in the sky cus tangled liao got pressure, heavy..

Don't know lah some psychic shit.

Something went wrong. 

The cafe that we booked a table at, didn't bother to seat us, even tho we booked. And we asked for a more spacious area so its easier to move around taking photo and stuff la.. but they didn't give it to us.

Meh, the waiter didn't even look at us. 

Three of us felt it would be uncomfortable to dine in such awkward atmosphere, 

So we decided to switch location!

(don't wanna mention name in case I get bashed in the name of ruining peoples business tsk tsk, 

but I believe in freedom of speech lor)

Strolling around beach street, foursquare-ing for good cafes nearby.

And we finally decided on Coffee On The Table, I'm so glad that we did, because

THEIR FOODS ARE AMAZEBALLS! 

Always been a big fan :3

Settled down at Coffee On The Table & met up with Weiwei's college friends!

Annoying SiewHui :p

Vain a lot before the birthday girl shows up.

We actually waited for quite long, due to her bf's clumsiness of not being able to find the place! 

Hahhaha. No lah our bad actually, last minute changed the location :'/

Don't even get me started on what these things look like..

HAHAHHAHAHA they're actually filled with water that add weights so the heliums don't fly off.

After an hour of long wait,

And several paranoid phone calls from her boyfriend, 

Finally,

They found their ways here!  

She came in with "wtf, walao"   but didn't look surprise at all. 

Smhhhhh. Was expecting her to tear :p

Quite a failed surprise but still, the feeling that everyone gathers together and have a good time.

:)

Some food pics in case you're tired of seeing our faces already :p

Aglio Olio with prawn.

..

House Style BBQ Chicken, which, is very very nice!

Must try :3

Very blurry selfies with the birthday girl.

Idk wtf happened but my TR performes like shit under low light ://

I'm still trying to get a hold of it!  Till then, do bear with these bad quality pics. 

Too lazy to bring my big ass Sony out everywhere.

Thanks everyone for showing up especially those have exam the next day :p 

but who am I to thank anyone, isn't this the birthday girl's line lol

Happy birthday again silly!  xx 

"How long will you love me?"

"Till all the ocean dried up" 

Eew.

Mama-mia Coconut Ice Cream day;

So my friends and I decided to give ourselves a "live-like-its-sem-break-even-tho-finals-around-the-corner" day. We drove all the way into town(we live at the edge of the mountain of Pg hehe) to have this fancy coconut ice cream which Dini and I had been dying to have for weeks! But obviously we got caught up with too many school works, could hardly make time, not even for one short ice cream break =(

We saw quite some people posted photos of these delicious cold stuffs. Being the Big Tamchiaks we are, we looked at each other with the "loves-filled-eyes" emoji faces. And here we goooooo ;p

I've always been a big fan of coconut icecreams! Or coconut-made anythings

Also a hardcore coconut drinker lahhhh, always annoy my friends wanna drink coconut T.T

Dini lovee.

 Apparently Dini and I thought it'd be boring to be by just ourselves so we asked the lovey-dovey to

 come along as well and they did! Day got much noisier and also funner laaaa :p

 Hello little heavennnn! 

Come here you good-smelling piece of happinessssss

RM6 per.  The nook located right next to China House cafes.

Opens daily from 10am to 7pm.

Heres their FB page:  https://www.facebook.com/Mama-Mia-Coconut-Ice-Cream

To be frank, this isn't the best that I've had, 

and even the one at One Stop beats it!  And One Stop had it selling at rm3 while MAMA MIA 

is double of the price..     but hey its a tourist spot. What do we expect.

Still very satisfied getting to eat this under such hot burning sun!

Ain't no kidding, not only the ice cream, we could feel us melting too smh.

Being one of the fattest tourist, lil boy looked at me in horror sigh.

Oh don't I just love days like this.

Spontaneous plans, worries-less conversations, laughs a lot, no troubles.

Coffee Smith

 Hello guys!   I'm so sorry for not blogged for so freaking longgg!

I know, I know, it has been really long since I talked something about myself, both of my previous(or most) 

blog posts are all about product reviews, my favorites, etc.   

So, if you're wondering how have I been?

I've been great, awesome, and all thing, oh busy!  

Okay to be honest I actually have no idea what the heck had I been caught up with, it just felt like I never had enough time to come up here and blog.  Maybe I was just too lazy doing this, I mean, I'm on my laptop every.single.day.

Hehehehe.  

So today, I'm going to introduce you my new favorite cafe in Penang, Coffee Smith!

Visual time first, then I'll tell you how I feel about the cafe and why I like it so much. X

Companion of the day.  Pei Sean & bestie Wei Wei

Banana Chocolate

This is one of the drink I've ever had throughout my entire life.

The main boys, bananas are really fresh and sweet. Mixed up so well with the chocolate drink.

There's a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, it then melts down and you'll have to stir it together with the drink. Miraculously, it ended up making the drink even more flavorful than it already is, and really, trust me, the drink is very very flavorful itself.

For every sip you take, there will be like a mouthful of heavenly good banana and chocolate combined.

God I'm good at this, let me host a food show already hahahaha.

Benedict Egg w Hollandais

The cafe's signature dish?  Most likely.  Every photos that I saw posting from Coffee Smith, they have this ordered in it.

Well, this was my bestfriend's order so I just got to take a bite of it  :'(

You know how (most) egg benedicts are sour and slightly stink, because the chef claims that they have to put vinegar in the egg so they don't spread, or something like that (I wasn't listening lol)

I've had really terrible Egg Benedict experiences actually. First, at Whos Bryan restaurant; Secondly at Kaffa Cafe.

Egg Benedict from both the places I mentioned turned out to be weirdly sour and only looked good on the presentation.

They kinda ruined my day lol.  I mean, I went for the breakfast and was hoping to get good foods. What happened?!

Oh got carried away, my point is that I now, officially, hate Egg Benedicts  :@ can't trust them bitches no more.

BUT BUT BUT,  Egg Benedict from Coffee Smith didn't not taste sourly AT ALL.

In fact, it was quite delicious.  And Wei Wei kept on raving, and raving how it was the best Egg Benedict shes ever had.

She then put chili sauce on her egg benedict :3     weirdo.

Fruit Ice Cream French Toast

There's bread, there's fruit. 

The bread is finely dipped with cinnamon so it tasted sweet and soft (I don't like soft bread tho)

But if you do, consider ordering this because Wei Wei (that bichie again) kept on snatching the breads from Pei Sean's plate of food,  saying it was so good.  -____-  She liked the foods there so much I don't geddit haha.

This is more of a dessert but holysheet, the amount of the breads is enough to make you full already. 

Garlic White Wine Clams Pasta

This dish is a complete scam.  

The photo on the menu of it is big clams covered up all the noodles, but it came as tiny little 'lalas' wtf (*^$&(*%&)(%@)@$&

Imagine my face when the waiter walked towards the table with something that is totally different from what I saw on the menu.

Almost jumped up with rage and yelled.

HAHAHHAHA. Just kidding, not that aggressive a person.   Or am I.

My order, sadly, is the worst of all.   Walao eh. I was the hungriest of all ok.

The noodles had no taste at all, they were hard to chew and not flavored at all.

NOT FLAVORED AT ALL.   The lalas were better, tasted salty but the noodles still very geli lol.

Just find my legs looked interesting in this photo.

Haha, I've got really tanned recently cos I picked up swimming lessons!  The reason was because I scared of being drowned lah hello I live in Penang there's so many areas closed to the ocean.  I'm scared.

And I'm really digging the tanned, I try putting on body butter to make it look more shiny and I LOVE IT.

:D

A full table of good foods.  Except for mine, bad.    BADDDDDDDDD I TELL YOU.

Wells others were good tho :3

There's more I want to share with you guys tho:

I've read COUNTLESS number of bad comments about Coffee Smith on 4square before visiting.

I kind of mosaic the name and photo of them because .. I feel its the right thing to do.

Lets see from my point of view.

Problem #1   Rude services.

The waitress that waited our table was nice as a person, looked young and new to work. She seemed nervous tho.

We visited at lunch time, the cafe is fully packed with human-beings: families bring kids, screaming at top of their lungs.

The entire cafe was a mess and crazy as fuck. Still, the waiters trying to satisfy everybody as they very occupied already.

I see no problem at all.

Till we about to leave, we asked a waiter passed by our table  "Can you get us the bill, please?"

Instead of saying 'OK'  or 'Wait'  he looked over helplessly to another supervisor-looking guy, hinting for help.

The supervisor-looking guy then ordered another girl to get us our bill.

From what I see lah, okay, just plain assumptions of mine: 

The waiters are not rude.  They're awkward.  Coffee Smith seemed to hired students to wait tables

And most of them looked as if they didn't have any working experience, so when they were thrown questions, or asked services, they got nervous and didn't know how to react. The guy looked quite funny when I asked for the bill lol why?

Problem #2  Foods take forever to be served.

HA-HA.   You are never gonna believe me, but, 

Our foods were served within 10 minutes.   within 10 minutes.   I mean it.

Even the time we took considering what to order was longer than the food took.

Here's it went:

While handing our order sheet to the waitress, I was really hungry so I asked 

"請問會很久嗎? 大概要多久?"

Then she answered

"呃 就等一會兒 可以嗎"       of course can lah arbo. 

Being the usual me, once she left the table I threw my camera at Weiwei saying "eh eh 幫我拍照"    

Notice the 2 photos above?  Yep, taken at this time.   She took only 3 photos, they turned out okay.

So I transferred them immediately to my phone, wanted to edit and upload on Insta before the foods come.

Who the fuck would predict this:

At the moment the photos (three only) were successfully transferred,   the foods came.

LEHMA I DIDN'T EVEN GET TO EDIT.    hahahahhaha

-_____-

It was really fast, we were really shocked, and I was really hungry lolol

Eh crazy fast okay?   Once she left, 3 photos taken and transferred, suddenly the foods served.

Soooooooooo, this problem didn't happen to me as well :3   

Guess I was lucky.

#3 The environment

This isn't any problem, just wanna share my point of view.

The cafe is really spacious compared to other little cafes popping in the island.

A lot of parking lots too as it is near to the bay at Kapal Singh Road.

The cafes faces just right in front of the sea, see? Sea.  Thats why I learn swimming.

Hahhahahaha okay not related :/

OH!! Did I mention everybody in the cafe speaks in this adorable Taiwanese accent hahahaha!!

It is because Coffee Smith was originated in Taiwan so it means their main branch is in there. So yea,

Taiwan foods yo :D

Final exam in 2 days, still I'm up here slacking.

Signing off now, thanks for reading xx

Wearing my new favorite lipstick, Naughty Nude from Too Faced!

Too Faced oh Too Faced, always been my favorite brand.

Tea & Party:

Someone is back! Need no introduction, it's all over Facebook & every other social-networking sites.

Da princess Jayee ✽ is back in Penang and we kind of promised to bring her around *regrets*  

These few days (actually 2 outings only wtf) were probably the best days, I've had really boring life recently. 

If you notice, I hardly blog about my personal life or outing, sigh, it's not because I'm lazy or anything it's just nothing fun was happening to me, in my life.   IT WAS DULLLLLLLL. Till I went to this tea session with the girls. It was a great day I love them.

Warning: this post is going to be full of our close-faced selfies. Do not continue read if you get nauseaous easily or cannot handle ugliness of yours truly.

Was supposed to have a lunch date but neither of us could make up our minds, 3 of us were very indecisive (ughh treal #girlsbeinggirls moment) When they came to pick me up after my class, they went 'Are you hungry or nah?' 'Not quite' I said.    'How about a tea time instead of lunch then?' they asked. I was like 'Whoaa okay, Suffolk House then'   

'YAHHHHHH WE WERE THINKING SUFFOLK HOUSE TOO'     ツ  

And there we go, did a lot of jamming (hipster term, not traffic jam) in the car, arriving at Suffolk House.

Jayee leading at the front and rocking her expensive outfit.

Confession hour, I've always fancied about this place.  Since I accidentally got my ass here several years back, well, I was just keeping my friends company to come here to meet her mother. By the time we stepped in, I was stunned by the entire thing, the ambiance, the interior design, how classy the whole place looked, even the smell of it excites me lol!  I'm ashamed to say this but it was the first fine-dining I ever first stepped into or any higher class restaurant in this case.   Because I was born in neither rich nor wealthy family, below average if you are wondering. I was a total noobie when it comes to the enjoyment of life. I remember the most grand celebration our family had when I was a child was at KFC. I was like the happiest kid in the world!  Now that I've grown and met new people, earning my own money, trying to improve my life as well as my family's.  I earn and I spend, it's MY money.  

Lol got carried away, a little sensitive here. We girls are currently at the the money topic right now in the group chat.

Can't stand the judgments of people these days. Too much man.

Hello Ivor!  Another one that I hadn't met for a really long time. Whenever I ask her out,

She was always busy preparing for her A-level exam, 24/7 busy one wor.  Now that shes done with it! 

Hopefully we can hang more.   *sings* I need your love I need your time~

Finally reunited, after god knows how long.     Jayee why your armpit so clean are you Jolin Tsai

Anywayz, I  heard a lot of comments/rumors/made-up stories about our friendship, about how 'fake' we secretly are to each another, gossip behind their backs yet act like godly sisters in front of the camera. HAHAHHAHA those things make me laugh man.

If only you could see the real us hanging out together, just one time. 

Look at how true we are  'Who was your tweet about?? (bitchy ones)'   'You guys'

How real we expose ourselves; How loud we laugh; How freaking ugly we look eating seafood/ crab together lol.

If I were to sabotage them, I would had done it earlier and they would had too. Need no to put on the mask until now.

Of course we insult & call each other names sometimes but isn't that what best friends do??

Best friends 'Shut up bitch'      *calls you back something more offensive*

Stranger 'Shut up bitch'    Best friends 'DID U JUST CALL MY FRIEND A BITCH' 

Maybe not so hyperbola but you get my point lar,   always got each other back!  

✄ un-cut-able friendships.

HAHAHHAHAHAHAH I need to stop making up new words. Btw the scissor symbol chio ma??

We've got ourselves 2 pots of tea Earl Grey &  Mint n Fresh. 

Just in case you're keen about the price of the high tea set. Hehehe. 

One set for Two rm70++ exclude taxes,   we ordered tea for 4 because we are monsters!

Nope just kidding, we were waiting for Vivian, woots. Perfect four.

More selfies! The lighting is gorgeoussssss. Whoaa look at Ivor popping her ass tho :p

Vivian was finally here! Just right in time the foods were served. Did you plan this VV

Two set for Four is like, each person gets 2 scones, then the rest all get only 1 piece.

Looking fabulously.  I AM HUNGRY ALREADY 

Me：  "What do you mean the portion is for 4?? It fits just right in my stomach"

Someone：  "Staph eating you fat ass you gonna squeeze that tight jeans to explosion"

Me：  "Trying to lecture me about my weight?? 信不信我把你也吃下去??"

Someone："你還是不要講話比較氣質"

Me：  "這樣有沒有?? 不看鏡頭  假死看旁邊痴笑的樣子“

Jayee："角度是不錯  但是你整個感覺都做錯了  .   Let me show you how it should be done"

..

HAHHAHAHAHHHAHAHA 純屬虛構哦.

Anyway walao eh please look at how gorgeous she is.   I'm over there like :

Rolling back to my potato land.

FACE SO ROUND FOR WHAT. I ain't no the representative of the fishball company

Me："感覺有沒有??"

Someone："沒有"              OK.

Jayfuckinggorgeouseeeeeeeeeeeeee ♥♥♥♥♥♥ 

I'm so done looking like a potato beside her, its been like what? 7 years we have been friends??   Okay la to be honest back when we were 14, I already got jealous of her beauty even tho we were just typical lalas that went skating and all, but she already stood out as a lala. Lolol haha. Speaking of which, I think I'm already used to it, used to feeling like a crap beside her.  Hashtag Habit   Hashtag Numb

Me： Am I really true friend to you? If yes can you do me a favor?

She：??

Me：Try to be ugly abit can??

HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA. 

Favorite girls woohoooo. ♥♥♥♥♥

Last but not least, my college outfit. (Lie. I purposely dressed up a little cos I knew we were going to take a lot of photos)

So you think this is the end?  #NOPE
We girls also went clubbing at some other night. Girls bonding time! 

Getting ourselves prepared at Jay's!   Look at her, purposely put her hand around my stomach to help me out with hiding my fats.   HAHAHHAHAHA #ThingsBestFriendsDo     Was planning to wear this white bustier top, but then I discovered the layers of my fats are horrible, terrible, vegetable.  So I changed :D

Into this lamnua cozy pajamas looking singlet. I LOVE LOVE LOVE tops like this.  根本超顯瘦的.

In case you're wondering, it is from H&M yo.   

Light dinner at T.F.I.Friday before we turn up. But after the meal we got too full to move, turn down for wut.

Michelle & Chia En then came to meet us. Woooohoo. All girls party! 

One thing that I wish guys would understand, when you see a table is full of girls, doesn't mean you have the chance to hook up with any of us.  We make it a 'all girls party'  for a reason, is that we don't want to see dickheads like you to annoy the fuck outta us.  It it totally okay to cheer the drink, make friends with us, but forcing us to dance with you and stick at our table throughout the whole night? Fuck off ok? And no, we don't need you to buy us drinks. 
If we can't afford to buy ourselves proper drinks we wouldn't even be there. We ain't that cheapskate.     

I am so irritated by some guys that think they got the 'golden opportunity' once they see a full girls table.
SIAM LAH WE DON'T WANT YOU LAH.   LOLOL.   DON'T SO THICK FACED CAN.
Okay. Got carried away again. I'm annoyed ma  :3

My partners in crime.  ♡♡

Michelle.

Me and my signature hair flipping move.  HUHUHU.

Look of the night.

It wasn't a great night I must say, but my girls were awesome! :)
We then went to Vivian's place to crash and had long pillow talk before we go to dream land. More like pillow gossip
I cherish nights like this, how we are all gathered together, had fun and laugh hard.

I asked Jayee,
"Why does it feel our friendship got better this time you came back?"

Jayee:   What chu talking about? We're always this good. You talk some more crap and I'll hit you. 

#gangster   hahahhaha no. She didn't even know I was taking photo of her

Us chilling at the beach after the tea at Suffolk House.   Before going for dinner at Batu Ferringhi.

Don't have any photos of us dining thou,  cause we had seasood - CRAB   WOOOOHOOO

All our hands got dirtied and filthy,   so delicious so happy!    

Vivian, probably the best person I've ever met. Must emphasizes it!! She has always been so kind and nice to everyone around her. Damn it.  HOW CAN YOU.  IDIOTS EVERYWHERE. INCLUDE ME lolol.  No lah. Just saying.  Shes the best I like being with her T.T

And this is the worst person I ever met, took photo while I was talking. 

Ivor's henna art the dreamcatcher; I've got feather too but so far no photos gok lol.

Maybe next post!

Miss her already and she hasn't even leave. Goshhh. Planning for another meetup hopefully we could all make it!

Miss our silly jokes and Ivor being partially tipsy in her mind, always crack the funniest jokes. 

Aw man.   Can't get enough of the girls 

There aren't a lot of people that make me this happy so I must appreciate!
