Poco homemade cafe


在网上看很多他们家的review,心痒痒了很久。
上个星期日,我终于有时间拜访Poco一趟。


抵达的时候,要仔细看才会注意到Poco的店铺。
低调的粉蓝+宛如童话故事里的门窗,让我还没踏进店就已兴奋不已。


室内设计。
简单带点英式复古的味道。


店内小物,当天带的配件,Menu & 窗口边摆设。


Menu serves mostly modernized Japanese food.

我们都吃了午餐才过去,所以只点了些 side order & dessert.
2图的chicken roll和4图的tofu cafe都很赞!!!别的地方都很难找到。饮料普通。

Poco位于比较清静的地方,来到这里仿佛忘了时间和城市的喧哗。很适合朋友们聚会或者小型party。

食物价格比外面稍微高一些,不过私房菜应该是这样的价钱了。


Poco详细资料:
Poco Homemade, Cafe & Atelier
3 Lorong Kurau Bangsar
Tel : 03-2287 5688
Opening hours : Tuesday to Sunday, 12pm onwards

p/s: 由于Poco在网上的扑光率越来越高,店面却不大,出发前记得先打个电话作reservation,以免失望。老板们都很友善 :)

When it comes to medication....


I have zero tolerance :(
Probably related to some childhood trauma.  

So yea, the ratio will always be:
 1 pill VS a pool of honey. 

And the place to make this happen will as usual be:
beside the basin. Just in case I puke everything out.

Been down with fever & swollen gum for a week, thank God I got better this morning. Can't imagine having to go through this ratio & basin thing for another day.

Can I have my bubble tea already?

Long lost treasures


While i was doing spring cleaning just now... yes, on a Saturday morning. Not because I have had enough sleep, but after doing all the laundry I suddenly have the urge to clean my room, especially all its cupboards & wardrobe.

Okay where was I? ah.. while i was doing speing cleaning, i found my long lost treasures:


See these shiny "bejeweled" hair clip bows? They were like my Iphone or maybe LX5 back in the 1990s where I was still a child. By saying this,  i feel so old mature already. haha.

They were so precious for a small girl like me, that i kept them in a hidden place in my room. Until spring cleaning was done, everything being opened & raided, I finally found them again. I'm surprised that they look just as new as how I remembered them to be.

The funny thing is, I tried to recall where these little things are few months ago. Did i gave them to someone? Did i threw them away when i was in my teenage? Or did I kept them somewhere in my room that I have yet to discover?

Now I know the answer :)

So start raiding/ spring clean your room. Who knows you might find something. CNY is coming real soon anyway you don't want your mom to scream:" CLEAN YOUR SMELLY ROOM RIGHT NOW" at the very last minuet right?

I'm glad I did~

p/s: I know I should be writing about Christmas, new year eve, or at least some new year resolutions. But that will be another long post I suppose. Maybe tonight :)

十一月的最后一天


不晓得是否是我的错觉,天气很冷。

下了地铁,走进人群中,
双耳塞着耳机。

突然有种狂念又来了。
恨不得马上搬去个陌生的城市,
煮自己的早餐,过自己的生活,
不为谁伤心。

看着身边来往的路人,
我的心里只能轻轻叹息...

Finally KO-ed...


Been on MC for the past 2 days, I feel like throwing up all the time. Only has appetite for red bean milk tea.

Sigh, I don't want to spend my weekend on the bed doing medication T.T

Don't judge a shoe by its cover

Then how to buy shoe?
To be honest, I've been asking this question for the longest time *role eyes*

Whatever shoes I bought, 8 out of 10 of them will bite me. Better still, the remaining 2 which don't bite are slippers. Sigh. That's why I don't fancy buying shoes. And that's why most of the time I'll be seen in the same pair.

However, shoe being shoe, they will get teared apart someday. Especially when you do distance walking everyday, like me. So, a few pairs of comfy shoes of mine have been ripped off their base ever since working life started.

I couldn't explain how panicked (more like.. pain in heart) I was seeing them got broken one by one. Part of me feeling broken-hearted, another part of me was worried what if I cannot discover other comfy shoes? Am I going to allow my feet to be bitten every single day? wear slipper throughout all occasion? store up plasters at all time? or just walk with my bare feet? 

I was so desperate for another pair of comfy shoe that I walked from office to Pavillion, to Isetan, to Sungai Wang after work, hoping to find my feet another good carrier. 

Guess what, I found none. But because I was so desperate, I settled for a I'd-give-it-a-try-shoe from Vincee. The shoe wasn't exactly comfy, but it is made out of good leather (reasonable pricing too). I tried it on and did some walking around the shop. It was all good, except that its back part has some rubber thing attached so that particular part was a little tight.


Looked all angelic and decent, I was so convinced to buy it. In fact, I actually did.


That was my BIGGEST mistake!!!!! It bites It bites!!!!

After walking for 10minutes from the LRT to my office, I ended up with 2 dissimilar Doremon plasters and a sinked heart T.T

Oh gosh.. now I can only pray for my cotton crocs (yes, the one being accidentally ran into a pool of rain water) to survive longer.

你喜欢现在的自己吗?

不敢说100%喜欢,不过比以前更喜欢自己就对了。

现在的生活很安稳。
从小到大,上天把一切平凡的都赐我。
平凡的脸蛋,平凡的成绩,平凡的身家。
也许是太平凡了,我的内在附带些许自卑。

成长过程当中,最令我不愿提及的莫过于中学时期。
相反与别人如何怀念中学,
每每看见FB里的旧照都让我害怕下一秒就看见当年的自己。
多少愚蠢,多少羞辱,多少自卑,
现在敲打着这份文章都让我觉得不安。

大学时则为感情伤心,为功课没觉好睡 ,
已经没时间自卑。
奇怪的是,心灵竟比中学时期健康得多。

如今我还是很平凡的毕业了,找了份平凡的工作。
生活就如我所说的...安稳。

但我常在想,我的生活就只有平凡和安稳两个字可以行容吗?
不可能。
上天一定也在我身上种下了无限的潜能,
他给与每人不同的天资,就看他人能不能发现和发挥。

我也许还不清楚自己有什么过人的长处,
但我已大概看见4或5年后,我要站的方向。
 
不过说真的,每个梦想都有它的价格...
我现在的平凡,宛如在替这份梦想还钱,哈哈。

再多4 或5个365天,我可以不必逼自己起床,不必平凡地上下班,不必跟别人挤键运,还有很多的不必。不过最重要的是,可以爱穿什么就穿什么*兴奋中*

我看啊... 以后的自己要是看回这篇文章不知会骂还是笑 :P

话说回来,我还真的很喜欢现在的自己。
无论是对上帝,经济,家人,感情,还是工作方面。
当然,我不否认它们都各自还有很多进步空间。

活了23年,
生活虽没有很富裕,至少没有欠银行钱 :)

Photoshop lesson...

FAILED :'(

Yes, photoshop lesson failed.

The bf spent one Sunday evening teaching me how to use Photoshop. So he demo demo, I couldn't understand, he demo again.. up to a point, he finished all for me haha, which were those combined photos you saw in previous post.

After he left, I tried exploring Photoshop myself. I didn't expect myself to be pro like Xiaxue , but I thought.. well combining a few photos wouldn't be a problem, yes? NO~ I tried recalling steps the bf had mentioned before but the result was nothing close. Then I began to click on every single button to explore explore a bit, guess what... I messed up the whole picture T.T

Not to say that I couldn't "un-do" those "damages", but I was just too confused with all the buttons here & there and I ended up not saving a single file. Sigh.

Therefore, for this post I do not dare to touch Photoshop anymore *for now*. I refuse to get angry over myself trying to figure out Photoshop *which I'm sure I will if I do* when I'm suppose to leisurely type out this post on a hard-earn peaceful afternoon. Yes, you read it correctly, afternoon~ I'm writting this in my office. Office pc didn't block blogspot, yay~~~

Opps, back to the topic. No Photoshop, then what? Paint, hehe. Photoshop represents university level, then Paint will be kindergarden level *hide face*. There's a Chinese saying goes like this:" Don't know how to walk want to learn how to fly", that pretty much explains my previous encounter with Photoshop, haihz. Better learn my ABCs with Paint before going into Photoshop. 
  
And so, I happily explored Paint until I realized its limited functions. Cannot combine photos the way I wanted it to be also :( Within 1 hour, I declared "graduation" for myself from kindy level. Didn't do much with Paint, just some color adjustments &captions added:



p/s: The bf is trying to get me another not-so-complicated-but-has-all-Photoshop-functions software. Meanwhile, I'll just bribe him to help me with any existing Photoshop problems, lalala~

Notes of my Beautiful Sundays


I was never an essay person. I always believe in point forms, clear & straight to the point. If you noticed, probably only 5% of my posts were essays.

Back in my schooling days, all the nota Sejarah & Sains of mine were in point forms. During University, my favorite examiner was Ms Win Nee because she was and is (until now) the one and only lecturer who strictly prohibit her students to write in essay form, everything needs to be in point form,. Now that I'm working, I constantly find myself writing emails in point forms. So far nobody has complained about me haha~

Today, because of time constrain I've a valid excuse to exercise my favorite point form once again :)


Kissaten@Lot 10 Hutong - Pork burger - Haagen Dazs flower basket - last day being jobless


Tropicana City Mall - Honey Malt Oreo Bubble tea (current obsession!) - Despicable Me - Korean Food - short but happiest Sunday


Beef Noodle@Petaling street - KLCC - Karate Kid - Subway -  LRT anticipating Inception!


These pretty sum up my absence. Of course, there were more than these, but me.. being the Photoshop noob would need the boyfriend's assistance in every single step. I didn't manage to create more combined photos by myself :'(

So I'd better stop my lazy post here, good night peeps~

11月的最后一天...

可以说是乌云满天,只看见太阳的光环,却透不出一丝温喛。

心情说真的没有很好,担心的事情一堆。所幸的是情绪被我安抚得不错,控制不了的事先由他吧。眼看最后的战役已到,真的不得不收拾心情。


虽然说:“苦中一点甜”,我还是比较喜欢金色包装的口味。



这些都是笔记本。真是创意无限~

不过要我天天对着这样的笔记本...难免会失胃口,哈哈。

Shopping day,最快活的一天 :)


某天在toy'r us里遇见消防员小Pooh,不知道Audrey喜不喜欢呢?



这小家伙很爱拿包包,我怀疑是有基因遗传,嘿嘿...




你姨姨我那么想摆脱眼镜的缠绕,你却带不到眼镜就不罢休?!



Christmas即将到来,显示着一年的结束。

今年不再许下同样的愿望...

不得不承认,每到这个季节总会感触良多,
问自己:“你今年都做了些什么?”

Bye bye thesis 2 ~


With this, my tsunami has come to an end, yay~~
*clap hands*
*do starfish on bed*


For those of you who use to follow my blog, remember I said that my thesis 1 report contained not only paper & ink but also tears & blood & sleep debt? Well, this *thesis 2* is way beyond. It not only contains tears & blood & sleep debt, but also my flesh & DNA, haha.

Okie enough crap. I'm just too excited *kick journals & books aside*
Let's see what's left for this final semester.

Final countdown:
  • IO presentation: 7 days
  • Thesis defense: 9 days
  • IO documentary: 10 days
  • Final examination: 2 weeks time
Okie, I realized I shouldn't be too relax *collect back my books*, there're still so many things to be done :(

Anyway let me let loose tonight, just tonight, weeee~

This is my breakfast + lunch + dinner for today.
Kind of used to one meal per day after EMERGE.

*jump*
*laugh*
*scream*


I'm gonna play donut donut in Facebook now because Mei Sim has stolen my highest score, have to chase back, muahahhaha.

Till then, good night peeps :)
*on Facebook*

11.22.2009

Final thesis

  • word count: 8632
  • words to be completed: 1368
  • deadline: less than 24 hours
This is the 287546356296th day of me sitting in a wifi cafe.

Coffee overdose + sleep debt accumulation till the max. Rushing back to back between church events, University colloquium & thesis report. I'm spiritually charged but physically tired.


Can't wait for tomorrow to come to pass :)

有的没的

把blog每天循环的歌换成David Tao的新作品-暗恋,是我目前最爱听的歌。

今晚是个悠闲的夜晚。趁着鲨鱼和海浪还没找到我前,让我悠闲地打篇华文post。

近期比较少update。除了因为没时间,我也不想将太多不开心的事留在这个空间。希望以后再看回自己现在所写的,不是一堆难过的内容。

我的时间很有限,我要从有生之年内记得全部美好的回忆。虽然说...不开心的事比较能够让人成长,不过成长毕竟是件好事。我的记忆要从成长这个点算起,过了这个点就被归类为好事。好事都值得被记起来。因为好事都是美好的回忆。

废话了一堆,发觉我原先要写的point不见了。也不知道是不见了还是带不出我心底的那把声音。算了,重点是,这是个悠闲的夜晚,我悠闲地听着歌,打着一篇华文post,在暴风雨还没来临前做最后的享受,哈哈。

另外,我昨天体会到食物中毒的滋味了。说得很快乐那样,其实真的痛到不行。肚子好比被利刀刺上刺下。偏偏当天有很多堂课上,吃了药死也得死回学校上课。还好药吃了2次就没大碍。这还算是不严重的食物中毒,严重的还真无法想象。

1年被蛇咬,10年怕井绳。如今我每天洗手的次数比喝水来得多,哈哈~

在此谢谢代我实行CG任务的组员,以及所有人的关心。

Let's Leica~


When I unknowingly joined the task of looking-for-instant-camera for a birthday girl, I didn't realized I was actually exposing myself to danger. Danger of craving for a new cam :(

I've been controlling myself, now I need more determination~ It's Leica this time. Sigh. My long abandoned wish list is now awaken once again.

how to...

How to control @.@

Me likey Digi LUX 3

or maybe V-LUX 1

D-LUX 3 serves well as a compact cam

Alright I'm just trying to make myself feel better by having them in my blog, haha.

One day, I'll have my Leica :)
*or maybe Canon/ Nikon DSLR, who knows I might change my mind right, heh*
