I just recently had a second round of celebrations with my girls ! Still not a complete get together but hey, birthdays are great excuses to meet up. Got to go to Empire Damansara for the first time that night as well. Thanks for the everything girls ♥

My memory is a little hazy on how I found out about Empire Damansara. Probably Instagram again. However, when I googled the place up, I could only find a few places that I wanted to try here. And so I took the opportunity to eat dinner at Metal Box. Hehe.

I originally wanted dessert though. I'm wondering why I didn't opt for Harajucube when I saw the signboard. Sigh. My tummy must have been really hungry to want a heavy dinner.

Felt overdressed that night but it was my night so meh. HAHHAA JOKE. Great interior. Nice ambiance. The view outside was just romantic at night. However, I wasn't too sure if the food I was eating was worth the price I paid for. The food was okay, but it didn't have the oomph I was waiting for when I read the reviews online. Probably set my expectations a lil too high for this place.

And because Metal Box wasn't enough to satisfy our appetites, we walked over to the other end for the mamak ! Jasmine said the Nasi Kambing there was nice, (any of you ate it before?), but it was already done for the day. We had to opt for typical overpriced mamak food hahah !! Well, mamaks in a high end area are more costly anyway. But just like every other mamak, it was a really good place to just sit, chill and gossip. Heh.

I really liked the place but I was too sleepy after work that night. I barely talked hahah. Just listened... or trying to listen while keeping my eyes open. Oops. Nights are much more romantic and they're the only time I get to spend time with people, but my physique and stamina just tells me to hit the sack by 11pm.

But if you noticed, pictures are an exception HAHAH.

Really regretful that I just sat there and listened. Even when I was given the chance to talk I didn't have much to talk about. It was like a... "oh my turn to talk? what do i say now?" kinda debate going on in my head HAHAHAH #insidestruggles

However, I really do appreciate the fact that they made time to spend with me :) It's never easy to meet up with so many of them in a day. Heheh. Thank you once again queens ♥

Little Blessings at 20

Hi everyone :)

Thank you so much for the wishes, gifts and time spent with me over the past few days. I appreciate every one of it :)

Sorry if I didn't reply you, I might have overlooked it. Suddenly at 20 years old I don't feel old neither do I feel all that young. I guess the twenties are the borderline between the two. Even birthdays don't seem like such a big deal already compared to when I was a kid.

I wonder if you feel that way too. Whether you're the same age or not.

I'll also put a pause to my 30 Day Blog Challenge for this post. I want to look back on my birthdays and how I spend them in years to come. Don't you ?

Woke up to this on my sister's room mirror. I don't have a mirror so I use hers HAHAH. I think she paid me back for the time I stuck tissue on the car wiper. (she thought she had a parking summon HAHAH).

Had lunch with two of my girls at AMPM Cafe. I'm glad I finally had time to go there as I've always seen reviews on blogs and pictures on Instagram. Heheh. I also took the opportunity to try Eggs Benedict. Yup. That was my first time HAHAH. The first few bites were amazing ! SALMONNNN. MY LOVE. However, towards the last few bites I felt like puking :/ Can I blame the egg yolk ? Heh.

Birthdays are days where spending on good food is worthwhile and reasonable. Also, it's not everyday people will pay for you HAHAH. Unlike my every work day mamak food, this was a VERY nice change. It's been awhile since I had salmon too.

Thank you ladies for the cake ! My first and only slice of cake this year so far hahah ! It was also my first time trying salted caramel cake. I honestly thought it was a chocolate cake at first sight until the owner mentioned that it's actually caramel. I must say, it was a satisfying choice. It wasn't overly sweet and had a subtle caramel taste... until you eat the sides.

Mandatory picture with Layne and Vonn ! :D Thanks for spending time with me despite your busy schedules heheh. However, the food didn't stop there. Oh no no no.

Vonn and I headed to SS15 for Sangkaya's Coconut Ice Cream ! The parking was crazy but the ice cream was worth 4 rounds around SS15 heheh. One of the best ice creams I've tasted so far. The sweetness was just right! Unique in it's own way. The only thing that would have made it better is if came in a slightly larger portion hahah !

For dinner, Jason and I went to the Three Little Pigs & Big Bad Wolf. I've always walked past this restaurant while doing grocery shopping at Bangsar New Village. Never really got the chance to taste the menu until tonight. And right now I'm wondering how many first(s) I've already written in this blog post. Heh. I dare you to count.

Can never avoid Orea Milkshake and Carbonara once I eye it in the menu. Speaking of which, I somehow chose not to eat Carbonara for lunch for the first time in Carbonara menu history HAHAH JOKE. I just needed to satisfy my carbonara craves. I liked the mood setting and ambiance there. Was romantic enough for the night hehehe.

I think the only thing I did on my birthday was eat. Breakfast, lunch, tea, dinner and now supper ! Oh wait, does dessert count as supper ? Hahah ! I brought Jason to Dip&Dip because he didn't try it yet. Besides, I'd rather have it in Bangsar than cram in the outlet at Pyramid.

"There's always room for dessert". I'll take that back HAHAH. By the end of this Jason and I were so full. It felt like my tummy was going to explode. I'm not a person who can eat all day long and still eat. Definately overestimated my tummy that day. At that moment, I wonder how connoisseurs feel like when they taste food all day long.
