Broke Down

Our beloved car, Rio

You have served us for 8 days since we adopted you from a used car shop. Two days ago, you have been diagnosed with severe sore throat. You can only be heard on the right side whenever we try to talk to you. It is not a serious matter because we still enjoy the songs you played for us. =) Yesterday, you had fever. we felt your breath is not cold anymore after we went for a walk with you.. We hope you can recover soon..

But, bad things do happen..You broke down on our way to destination. You were brought to the workshop and took 7 days for your total recovery..

We wish you can be with us, healthily and happily...

Breakfast at Delifrance

Breakfast at Delifrance, Mid Valley
 The menu~
 Refreshing mango juice to start the day!
 The croissant is surprisingly fresh!
Spaghetti is not recommended in Delifrance, small portion and the look is not appealing too..

McD Strawberry IceCream!

My all time favourite! Love the strawberry chunks in it and the strawberry syrup on top of the vanilla ice cream. Perfect!

Cempaka Schools

Some pictures I took at my working place- Cempaka Damansara Heights & Cempaka International Ladies College (CILC), Sepang
Captured this during my Thursday routine of monitoring students at the school's entrance
I like the swimming pool the most!
My working attire

The night is approaching. Teachers along with students were waiting to "buka puasa"

The CITY














The night view at Clarke Quay is magnificent.. Regretted that we did not explore the place much because one of our friends was too tired to continue walking.. Hope to visit CQ again~
