Long Read - Staycay in April 2019

                 

                

The youngest went to Korea for a girl's trip and mom wanted to send her and because of the timing and all, we booked a room to save the travelling and ta..da! We had a staycay though it was a very short one.

The thing about staycay is it's like a mini holiday. Not sure if it's the accommodation we chose or the nice bed we get to sleep in but it was just great. 

                 

I always look forward to breakfast though I roughly know what's available :P

           

Was hoping to get a room with runway view but the one we got was not that bad either. 

Since we were all the way at the East, we went to visit the latest Jewel in town too. 

 

The mall looks like VivoCity plus Suntec City to me. 

The attraction everyone was there for was this:

The Rain Vortex! World's largest indoor waterfall. Which also changes colour. 

                    

             

Vortex is really a huge and cool space to be in. 

Quick Update - May 2019

Just some of my favourite photos that I took over the years. I think what makes these photos special to me is the natural filter that nature added to each of the photos, creating some kind of special effects to the photos. 

Today is 7th May 2019. 

2nd day of Ramadan for this year. 

4th day of working at the new company, C. 

Let's see how we go :-)

Long Read - February 2019

The Lunar New Year fell on 5 & 6 Feb this year. We got Monday off and thus it was going to be a long weekend for us. Of course we have to make use of the long weekend 😊

The Planned Visit to S.E.A Aquarium

Where we marveled at living things under the sea. It somehow is therapeutic watching the fishes swim in the waters especially when the stingrays glide through. 

   

The jelly fish are also fascinating bobbing with their colourful bodies. 

                          

These moon jellies which change colours every now and then is mysteriously enchanting. 

The Planned BMS turns Family Visit to Art Science Museum

We visited Future World which is a permanent exhibition with changing installations. 

Nature

Town

 

Sanctuary

Park

  

   

Space -  My Favourite!

The Unplanned Visit to Universal Studio

                   

        

      

No matter how many times I visit, I will always marvel at this castle.

The first time we visited USS, the naive me thought that we would be able to walk through the hallway and bedrooms in the castle to have a feel of how royal it is. But this castle has no stairs for us to visit 2nd level onwards.. You get what I mean. 

I guess I would have to visit a real castle one day!

Long Read - More Drama!

I was just thinking about the malay drama that I have watched yesterday  and realised I have missed out a few in my not so recent post on all the dramas that I have watched. So here's a short recap!

Sekali Aku Jatuh Cinta
Lepas tengok Syafiq Kyle dalam Suami Aku Paling Sweet, he became one of my favourite actor. And because of that I googled all his work and dramas and came to this older drama. Jalan cerita dalam drama ni ringkas dan cerita dia pun gerak cepat, takde buang masa and meleret-leret. I can't stand drama or filem yang lembab and meleret-leret! Part-part kelakar dalam drama ni mostly is when Syafiq Kyle bermonolog. He is so chirpy here which is totally opposite character Izz Haikal. I also think I fell for Izz Haikal and not Syafiq Kyle 😛

Rahsia Hati Perempuan
Started this drama sebab influenced by my adik. I'm not a fan of any of the casts so lama jugak nak decide if I wanted to watch this drama. Adik pressure and the drama being shown as having some similarities as the Hindi film Mujhse Dosti Karoge dengan made me watch this drama. Lepas separuh jalan follow drama ni, I kept saying tajuk drama ni should have been Rahsia Hati and just drop the word "perempuan" from the title sebab all the characters has a secret of their own which somehow affects another person! Sesiapa yang tengok gambar kat bawah confirm boleh agak the complication in this drama kan?! Ellie is such a selfish person in this whole entire mess! Sambil-sambil geram tengok character-character dalam drama ni nak berahsia sebab nak jaga hati perasaan orang lain, boleh cuci mata jugak tengok pemandangan cantik kat Australia which is in first half of the drama. The main 4 casts wardrobe also somehow compliments one another so it's pleasant to see all 4 of them when they are out together. We're still guessing if there is season 2 for this drama since the ending doesn't provide any proper closure..

Cinta Fatamorgana

I have became an Aeril Zafrel fan since watching him act in some drama serial. This drama started great, became a drag in the middle and bounced to being great at the end. This drama is also one of the longest I endured with 27 episodes in total. I have long became impatient with drama that has so many episodes so don't expect me to be watching a 50-episode or 100-episode drama.

Cerita dalam drama ni bagus tapi tak faham kenapa semua nak sangat orang yang dah kahwin rahsiakan pasal perkahwinan dorang. Sampaikan kawan baik yang tak tau si isteri dah kahwin ajak keluar pun si suami boleh izinkan. Apo! Drama tak akan jadi tragik dan boleh diselamatkan kalau semua berterus terang! Nak sembunyi sembunyi pun lama-lama dapat tau jugak kebenaran.

Mr Grey
Drama ni best! Cuma kat hujung cerita macam tak masuk akal bila suami tinggalkan isteri yang sedang mengandung dan suami kena "kurung" sampai tak boleh nak call atau balek jumpa isteri. Part ni memang nampak macam "kau dah kenapa?". Tapi cerita ni jalan cepat dan yang paling menarik kebanyakkan dialog pelakok-pelakon cakap utara. Lain dari drama-drama yang dah tengok sebelum ni. 

Hikayat Cinta Si Pematah Hati

Drama antara penyanyi! Hahaha. Jalan cerita ni not bad la but again, conflict antara suami isteri boleh dielakkan kalau la si isteri tu jujur dan berterus terang dengan suami dengan ugutan yang dia dapat! Tak boleh faham dengan jalan cerita yang si suami atau isteri sanggup ikut cakap si jahat bila kena ugut jangan cerita apa-apa dengan pasangan masing-masing kalau nak selamat. Kalau korang husband and wife dalam bilik kongsi masalah, siapa yang boleh tau?! Pakai akal jadi bijak sikit la please. Dah tau "rahsia" besar tu pandai-pandailah berlakon depan si pengugut supaya dorang tak tau yang kau sebenarnya dah tau apa yang dorang ingat kau tak tau. Kau tau tak apa yang aku cakap ni? 

Zahir Tak Terucap
Honestly, bila dapat tau drama ni ada Aeril dan Saharul Ridzuan, I was so excited sebab minat dua-dua pelakon ni. Tapi bila start tengok drama ni, aduhai mendaknya la cerita. Meleret-leret. I will be honest here. I skip most part during the drama especially bila pakcik miang tu berdialog. I just can't. 
Part adik-beradik bergaduh tu, mula-mula okay boleh diterima. Tapi bila asyik diulang dengan si adik tak buat apa-apa walaupun marah meluap-luap, rasa bingit pulak walaupun faham kenapa dia macam gitu. Balasan kat si abang yang jahat macam eh senangnya dia lepas tangan. Adik jugak kena tanggung masalah dia. Ending dia pun macam "Eh senangnya macam tu aje korang boleh terima?!" Drama ni drama yang paling lambat nak dihabiskan sebab episod banyak dilambatkan lagi dengan jalan cerita yang merangkak.
