Im not considered as a shopaholic but I LOVE SHOES... To me.. a beautiful pair of shoes could brighten up my day.. unfortunately you can hardly get THE ONE that makes you fall for the first sight.. even if there is, they might not have the size that could fit you perfectly...

This month.. i am fortunate to add 4 pairs of high-heels into my shoes "collection".. (kisumi will be killing me when he reads this).. great value at not more than RM 160 in a total.... :)

Mothers' Day - Early Celebration

Well.. knowing that "Mothers' Day" is around the corner, we decided to go for an early celebration treat at Marco Polo Restaurant...

Marco Polo Restaurant (富临门）located at Wisma Lim Foo Yong, Jalan Raja Chulan, has this promotion of All-You-Can-Eat dimsum + Chinese Cuisine every Sunday & Public Holiday from 11am till 2.30pm @ RM 33++/person..

The Buffet Line
Alot of variety at the buffet line from fried noodle, curry fish, roasted duck, roasted pork, sesame chicken, stir-fried tofu, mixed veggie, chee cheong fun, sushi, sashimi, mussels, congee, salad bar, to dessert like egg tart, yam dumpling, kaya puff, tofu fah, sago honeydew and alot!!

The Dimsum Cart
Charsiu Pau, yummy prawn dumpling, Siumai, and assorted dimsum (donno what they call)..

We were there at around 12noon, due to peak time, the dimsum was abit slow and always out of stock (or rather being "snatched" once the cart pushed out from the kitchen).. we only able to grab few type of dimsum... luckily the buffet line is attractive...

i ate quite alot!! i know i know im not suppose to have "All-you-can-eat" session in the middle of diet plan.. but then im still kinda discipline by keeping away rice/noodle/fried stuff/pao... hehe... din manage to take much photos.. enjoyed the food too much... and that's my only meal of the day.. Burp

7 of us, including my aunts.. (the more the merrier for buffet)



The buffet line


Bon Apetite

Next time will definately go again.. maybe when my bro come back from guangzhou? Maybe next time must try Putrajaya Marriott.. they also have this kinda "all-you-can-eat" dimsum thingy at their chinese restaurant (I think is Ming Palace) @ RM 48++... that one serves purely dimsum... Ok la.. next time as my bro to buy the bill at Putrajaya Marriott.. coz he just got promoted.. muahahaha

Starbucks Mug

Well i have to admit im a fan (not a very big) of Starbucks.. Bought this merchandise mug from Starbucks yesterday.. now it's standing on my working desk :)

Slippery Little Suckers

"What suckers? what's that?".. well that's freaking true it's the name of this fish shop "Slippery Little Suckers".... Located at Dataran Ara Damansara.. When i first went with kisumi last saturday... seriously i was impressed!!

This noon.. we went there again.. together with Derick and Irene, Nicholas and Jacey.. we were welcomed by friendly and knowledgable specialist Joe and Kevin...

oh well.. what's so special about this shop?? you will not believe until u are there personally.. besides those stated at their signboard.. most importantly this is unlike those ordinary typical fish shop... Coz when u get in... u'll feel like you are being at home... a living room with cozy couch and surrounded with various of beautiful tanks of fishes... It's not just a fish shop but a perfect hangout place for fish-lovers...


Marine tank with corals



Tropical Tank? (guess so)







Beautiful Aquascape






Crystal Shrimps Tank





Another beautiful tank






Did you notice there are alot of greens in the tank? well it's not easy to setup & maintain tanks like these... controll of water quality, supply enough lights and CO2 for the plants, even u need a chiller to keep the water temperature down... phew..


Kevin is conducting advise...



Let's see what they have at the selling tanks.. really exotic






This is the original "SPA FISH" originated from Turkey



A dozen of Cherry Shrimps Please..


These are HUGE!!

Diet Update

Well... after 3 weeks continuously replacing food with the CD drinks.. this week im entitled for a week break by adding in some solid food... although im entitled for some "retreat"... i still have to controll my food intake by not exceeding my body metabolism rate to maintain my current weight... rice/noodle/bread is highly-not-recommended... went for few slices of salmon sashimi and chawanmushi at our fav Sushi Tomo few days ago.. the thing that made me feel very guilty after eating it is ramly burger (highly-not-recommended).. and felt very uneasy after having it... (knn.. i swear im not gonna eat burger anymore)...

these few days i felt very energitic when i got up in the morning and felt wanted to get up and out for some fresh air... well is time to add in "exercise" into my diet plan.. to boost up my body metabolism and to firm and tone up my body... started with 20 minutes of cycling session few days ago when i was at home... today we went for a morning walk at Kelana Jaya Park... that was fantastic!!

went to get a skirt at Jusco Mid Valley... Kisumi asked my to try on the XL black skirt with white strips... oh well XL? you must be kidding me.. how can i fit into XL when i was still wearing XXXL a month ago?? ok ler.. i took an XL and a XXL into the fitting room.... aiks... out of my expectation.. IT DOES FIT!! PERFECTLY... hehehe.... happy!! i dont have to get my clothes at the extra corner anymore!! And for now i need to tie a belt on it whenever i wear my XXXL jeans... haha...

these few days my weight is maintaining between 74KG and 75KG... have to start my "sole source" of CD diet again next monday.... hopefully i can get a better result right before my birthday :)
