Liverpool FC Malaysia Photofun@Stadium Shah Alam

It was last Sunday when Liverpool FC Supporters Club, Malaysia organised this photofun at Stadium Shah Alam with its objective to gather all Liverpool FC fans and capture the moment and share it in WWW to show who and what we are. Also, we want to make Liverpool FC to feel like home when they are coming over to Malaysia on July 16th. I cannot wait to see Gerrard right in front of my very eyes and if possible, take a photo with him.

However, the saddest part of that event was five hundred and seventy people attended. I made it italic because I doubt we even hit fifty people that day. Very disappointed with those people who bailed us out.

And oh, my brother was trying to pull my leg that day. He told me that each of the fan is expected to know how to sing You’ll Never Walk Alone in order to be in that event. I was fooled, obviously.

The photofun was an eye-opener though. These people were, how should I put it, very patriotic towards Liverpool FC. All of us cannot wait to welcome Liverpool FC to Malaysia on July 16th. It is going to be oh so awesome!

Karaoke@Red Box, The Gardens

Last Saturday, I had another round of karaoke with my best mates in the same month. However, there were only five singers that night. One were in Philippines and another one had to bail out for a cousin’s birthday but, we had one that came back from Singapore and gave us the treat to sing. And oh, the buffet was way much better than the one we had here and this time, we had Hoegarden so it was all oh so perfect!

And did I mention I meet my friend there who came back from The States? One of the singers checked-us-all-in on Facebook place. At that moment, he was browsing Facebook on his iPhone and learned that I was at The Gardens. He was at Mid Valley at that time. He made the effort to come over to meet me and we had a short talk. It was great to see my buddy. Let’s hope he will come back to settle down in Malaysia like his great mommy as well as his future-in-laws hope.

That night we sang a lot of screaming songs and some as random as Cee-Lo Green’s Fuck You. We had a lot of Linkin Park’s songs this time as well as Bon Jovi’s It’s My Life. And of course, Aerosmith’s I Don’t Wanna Missed A Thing.

And this time around, I did not have enough singing. I missed out a lot of great songs but oh well, I am pretty sure we will go for another round of karaoke when Chris is back and for that, I really hope everyone will be able to make it.

Makan-Makan di Ipoh!

I spent another long weekend two weeks ago with the boyfriend. Same thing again, no! The only difference was, we made a daytrip down to Ipoh. I was craving for the Ipoh food for quite some time already and finally I could have them!

It took us an hour and a half and with the help of Mr G, we reached Lou Wong Tauge Ayam Restaurant for brunch. I do not remember having been there on my last and only visit back in year two oh oh seven but since this place was recommended by a few people, I went there. There was another similar restaurant which is diagonally opposite of this restaurant, Onn Kee Tauge Ayam Restaurant.

After a short visit at St Michael Institution, we headed towards Nam Heong Kopitiam for a glass of Ipoh white coffee and hopefully to get egg tarts too. Unfortunately, egg tarts were sold out, dang! Thus coffee is the bomb. The boyfriend is usually very caring and thoughtful but this coffee made him otherwise. He finished the drink when I only had one sip.

I was craving for toasts for we went to the opposite kopitiam, Sin Yoon Foong, for another round of Ipoh white coffee and toasts. This time, the coffee did not taste as good as the one in Nam Heong so I was the one who did most of the drinking. Yee Yen then came to meet us at the coffee shop before we left with her car to get some ‘heong peng’ and then to her house.

Oh! Before she brought us back to her place, we went to get salted chicken at Aun Kheng Lim as dinner when we are back in Penang. However, plan changed. Yee Yen’s parents asked us along to join them for dinner before we headed back to Penang. When we got home, the chicken was already cold and we saved most of it for lunch the next day.
Definitely this was not a fruitful journey as there are more food that we had not tasted. However, I really had fun during the journey especially having a perfect travel buddy with me. And guess what? We may be in Ipoh again next weekend!
