People are Not as Complicated as They Seems, Sometimes All We Need is A Little Understanding... And Brains.



Scene: It was nearly midnight. I was waiting for the lift at the ground floor of my apartment, alone. Suddenly, a big bald African guy ambled in and gave me this long stare.


Black Man (BM): Hi.

Hesitated for a moment, mind kept playing scenes from the “Little Man”. Plus I'm allergic to bald guys. To respond, or not to respond? But since I’m learning the art of hospitality, so…

Me: *Lame smile*

BM: What is your name?

Me: Joe.. uh I mean, Joey.

BM: Hi Joey! My name is Kyle.

Me: Like hell I care? *smile*

Awkward pause… Why is the stupid lift taking so darn long?

BM: How old are you?

Me: Sixteen.

BM: Oh, so are you working or studying?

Me: Studying.

BM: High school or college?

Me: School.


Lift finally arrived. Nosey Parker had to stop prying.


…or not.


BM: So…are you local or Korean?

Me: I’m a Japanese.

BM: Oh you are Japanese! Then do you live here? Or just visiting?

Me: I live here, with my boyfriend.

BM: *Disbelieving tone* You live with your boyfriend?

Me: Yes, of course! Should I not? *brightest fake smile ever*… Goodbye, have a nice day!

Fresco Ristaurante~



What is the best thing to do to a RM20?


Eat it? Lick it?? Smell it???


Yes folks, all of it!! We did just that when the seniors had cook-off in Ritz-Carlton's room. (Of course la, I mean we ate their food, not the money.).. Everything was done in super formal and professional way with five star standard. And the ambidance was just superb!! So much so to the extend we felt like monkeys seized from jungle, learning how to use fork and spoon.

Well... kinda...




Monkey 1 Table mate 1 - Ah Ben.





Canasder!! My another table mate! And that's the renowned Ritz-Carlton’s cobalt blue glass/crytal/goblet/whatever... You can never find these cups in any hotels except in Ritz. If there are, that means they're fake. I highly recommend you to break it~




Menu of the Day





And then...

The appetizer~







Dancing Prawn with Cocktail Sauce. I also dunno why izzit call dancing prawn when it's already dead, dun ask me!! All I know is that it's really hard to eat it with fork!! Yes, we used big clumsy FORK!!



This is one reason why I rarely go for fine-dining...

...really em sei tak lor to ruin the decoration. Lovely, right?




But we humans....must EAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The main course was simply delish~!!

Oh whoa, tell you something... Damn susah to use fork and knife to eat chicken weh!! I am true born and true breed fingers and KFC woman, rawr!!




But the most fantabuluous of them all...


Wee~ isn't this yummy?? Dates Puding served with Caramel Sauce & Vanilla Ice Cream!! Anything that goes with ice-cream guarantee gets a 10/10!!!! XD




However, the drinks were tad disappointing…


Nada alcohol!! Nada cocktail!!!! Only fruit juice were served!! I think it's something about Daddy D being allergic to alcohol...

How sad is that????????????




I ordered two mocktails… The one on the picture before this (with the mint leaves) is called Splash... While this one is called the Miscela Di Banana.

Monkeys mar… Bananas lor, hehe~




O.o... The VIPs also made an appearance. General Manager of Ritz-Carlton if not mistaken... Spot him/her!!





Masterminds behind the scene~~






And our lovely waitresses!!




It’ll be our turn next to do cook-off the next semester. And I will assure you that it’ll be far better than what I have shown you!! (ceh ceh~)... So come to my cook-off and give me support!! You’ll get nothing but the best!!

Where else can you get RM20 for fine-dining anyways??

Of pain and agony

Every being of nerve on my feet is on fire. My toes hurts, my ankle hurts, even my nails hurts…

Oh wee~ On Chinese New Year too.



“I give you till 3 February to change yourself. I want your hairstyle, your shoes and everything that I had ask you to change, change. If I find you looking the same as you are now, I am personally going to kill you. Is that okay?”

(Daddy Desmond, tossing out commands in his first class.)



I have to change my heels if I am to wear skirt. Apparently my old heels are okay ONLY when wearing with long pants. Oh well, I don't deny that. It does look teeny weeny bit auntyish… Who cares, it is super padded and comfortable! See what happens when you chose comfort over fashion? New shoes! New wounds!! New scars!!!!!! ArGh!!

The Penguin Sisters~


Cugly=comfortable+ugly... I miss my old heels T.T


Oh God, do I have to suffer so? I hate my new heels!! No kenot, this is a disgrace to the Ter family!! I can’t lose out to a crummy heels~!! I gonna train myself to wear high heels from now on. I am crushed and squashed, but not defeated!!! So come on New Heels, do your worst!!



But oh, today I accomplished something beyond extraordinary!! I finally bought blusher!! HAHA!! Given my tendency-to-flush-by-itself cheeks, I usually skip that step. However, according to Daddy D, the girls were ‘too pale’. Yea well, since I hate lipstick, blusher sounds like a better alternative. Unfortunately, I only knew the basics. The wely wely basic. To be master of applying tasteful makeup, haihz… heaven knows when la. I even needed help sticking falsies once. It was an agonizing process weh!! So..gooey..sticky..hoRROr!!!






Lalala~ In an unrelated incident…

More videos of Daddy D’s cruel, cruel punishment~

To help you along- Joanne, Benji and Canasder were sentenced to imitate a donkey, chicken and hippo respectively… And that's Daddy D talking at the background.
