Reason

Aching from inside
Not knowing when or why
My heart bleeds
My eyes cry

How did we ended up like this
From lover to stranger
I still remember your first kiss
Back when nothing else seems to matter

Wishing I know the reason
Of all the unspoken
Hoping that you will be back
Before my soul breaks

I need you to tell me it's ok
I need to know it's just a misunderstanding
I need to know everything's alright
I need to know why

Baby don't make me wait
This is more than I can take
Without you, I can't hold on
Without you, I can't go on


Yours truly
Perpetua Angeline

叶子的离开,是风的请求,还是树的不挽留。。。

Sakae Sushi with Taki

Dated 22nd October 2012. I know I know. It's now end of March 2013. But oh wells, things tend to get stuck with me so yes I'm back-blogging =P Bear with me please. Heee~ 

The night I spent my time with Taki pampering me with good food and good movie. It was my first time at Sakae Sushi at Spring. Taki picked me up from home and we headed down for a light dinner before movie.

Green tea from Sakae Sushi. What amazed me wasn't the green tea.

It was this hot water dispenser. Ok so I admit that I was a noob. I don't know how to operate this thing and nearly got my fingers boiled =P

The hardcopy menu. Cute eh.

And Taki went on to order via the tablet connected to each table. Cool huh~ Something new in Kuching.

He got himself a member card. I forgot what's the privilege but it's to collect points. Unlike Sushi King's card which is to get discount from every purchase.

Food time! California roll with fish roe.

Raw tuna. Not so fancy over this.

Erm.....ok I forgot what is this thing. Looks like scallop. 

Never ever ever forget fresh salmon! Yummeh! 

Since someone hasn't had his dinner, he need something to fill his tummy so he went and order some rice with chicken meat and potato. Looks nice.

Anyway, it was a night to remember. Why? Because that's the first time we went for a movie date. Speaking of the movie. It was Ted that we watched. Ehhhhh miss that movie! Must catch the 2nd one coming soon. Hee~ Chao!

Promise to come up with another post tomorrow night. Oh I just had to you know. Cos it's gonna be a work post. =D 从出江湖了!

Wrap Up Party at Elephant Cafe & HOF

Dated 19th October 2012. Sam called for a wrap up dinner for the IYCC video shoot at Elephant Cafe located at Ang Cheng Ho. I've only been to this cafe once and I don't really favour their food but no harm giving it a second chance. 

The menu. Rather simple. Printed only very very normal pieces of paper =.=

Hot lemon tea serves me best that night as I just got discharged from hospital 4 days ago and was still under medication. Huuuuuu~

I think this is the chicken chop. Can't really remember though. Way too long ago already.

But I remember this. It's Justin's salad which everyone borrowed to snap a photo =P

After dinner, the group separated and I joined Ian and the few over to HOF. HOF sports bar located at Brighton Square. My current favourite hangout place for Guinness =) Apart from Porkies of course. But Porkies is still the best cos they have better food. Heee~

Ian the Director of Photography of 4CG. Miko the soon-to-be Director of Photography and Jarvis, the man serving at HOF.

Little did I know that Jarvis is actually the silver medalist in Wushu in Sukma XV. Proud of us Sarawakian eh. Hehe =P

A snap with the DP.

And with Elton the Camera Operator of 4CG.

Ha! Stole 7 pesos from Miko's wallet that night =P Yeap he's a Spanish Filipino so that explains the attractive look. =D

Last but not least, it was still Octoberfest but I can't drink a sip so nope that's not my mug. So sad!!!

First Time Hospitalized

I guess I'm back at blogging =) Hello world! This is a super post-dated post. Gonna do a quick one and then a proper end to year 2012 and then again, the question, what's my resolution this year? That will be up next. Here is gonna be my post which was supposed to be up by end of October. Story is...

When I came back from my KL vacation during end of September, I haven't been feeling that well. I started to work at a new place and things start to go wrong. Not the job scope kind of wrong but my health kind of wrong. I started to feel pain when I pee and I have blood discharge. No it's not my monthly menstrual discharge. It's blood in the urine. I didn't really bother cos I thought I was just over-heated due to lack of water consumption. So I let it be.

Until I was down with fever one afternoon. I started to feel dizzy and I know it's not right. So I had my dear rescuer Martin and Fabian to pick me up from my workplace and sent me home. Once home, I vomited. I thought it's just merely vomit and fever. Next day, I stayed at home to rest. Vomited several times and my fever hasn't gone away. Then I started to have backache. It was around my waist area. Again, I thought I was just too tired so I slept the day away.

The day after that, fever is still around, no longer vomit but my backache got worst. I couldn't walk properly and had to walk like an old lady. Can't even lie down straight, what's more to say standing straight. My mom came back from work and was really shocked with my condition. She thought that I had appendix and sent me straight to hospital.

There we waited for hours and checked for so many stuff. The doctor gave me painkiller and I was feeling good already. But because they weren't sure of what happened to me, I had to stay there for one night. Reluctantly my mom went home after sending me to the ward and I was there without my phone for the first night.

There, I was connected with the um....I don't know what is it but I think it's glucose. This is the 2nd day at hospital. Mom brought me food and my most essential stuff, my phone. Heee~ Doctor said I have to stay another night because they need to wait for my urine and blood test result to come back before I'm allowed to be discharge. Fever is still around. Haiz...

First to visit me, Kenneth. Thanks man! It was really comforting to have friends coming to see me cos I was starting to feel lonely =( Second to visit me was YL. Came right after work. Ah~ Thanks =) Mom came during morning, noon and night to bring me food. The hospital did not provide me meal until the next day. I had a hard time moving around because I was connected to the glucose liquid. Had to drag the whole thing when I wanna go to the toilet. Ugh!

Took this photo during day 3 at hospital I think. As more of my friends already know that I was admitted, they came to visit. Many thanks to Jonathan, Evelyn, Carnes, Sui Yin, Gab, Martin, Fabian, Huong, Mike and Cyril for the fruits =)

My appetite got better and I managed to eat more. These are the food that the hospital provides. Not something I love but at least the salmon is good. Previously I only ate the fruits. Oh and now I know that kopi O is actually good because they serves kopi O in the morning!

Belgian chocs and oranges from Taki. Thank you my dear~ He came straight to me once touched down Kuching. Aww......touched =)

Anyway, I stayed for 4 nights at SGH. What an experience! I definitely will keep all those notes in my mind. First is to never find excuses for not going to toilet when needed. Whatever it is that's happening, toilet is a MUST go once you know you need to go.

Second is to remind myself that I MUST drink water all the time! Always drink plenty of water to cleanse away whatever bacteria that is in your body.

Third, health is more important than anything else that you can have.

My health report: I was down with kidney infection and thus the backache.

Alright. Will be doing the next post asap. Need to edit tons of post-dated photos. Guess I'm feeling good that I'm writing again. Ta~

Sarawak Regatta 2012

I shall forever remember my first experience at Sarawak Regatta as the day I ran under the rain for the longest route ever! Haha! Anyway, weeks ago Sarawak Regatta was on and I wanted to go cos I've never seen one. I know I know I know. I know it's an annual event and I'm a failed Kuchingite. That was why I wanted to go. 

Around 10am plus, as I read Cyril's tweet, I know it's gonna be a fun day. We both went to Noodles Descendants aka Bishopgate for brunch before heading to Sarawak Regatta. It was also my first time at Bishopgate. A very famous place that the guys had been hanging out during weekends. 

Had a bowl of noodle for myself.

This bowl of treasure is called Zheng. It comes with the noodle. This is the speciality of Noodles Descendants. People actually queue up for an hour just to eat these. Hmm......

After we're done with our brunch, we head down to Waterfront for the Sarawak Regatta event. Nope we weren't there to cover event but just two bored people wanna check out happenings around Kuching on a Sunday afternoon.

Boy it's been so long since I was at Waterfront!

At which I notice this new signboard. The colors attractive no? =)

Oh oh!!! I was so hype when I saw this huge bottle. Haha! They're everywhere! Just call me sakai or whatever but yes I can still be hype like little kids. Heee~

Our dearest Sarawak flag flying proud on the Sarawak Cruise!

There it is! The race begins! At that moment I seriously envy Cyril's camera. This is the max I can zoom and he was able to zoom 10 times more! Ugh!

Another shot. Wanted to have the whole DUN into the photo but can't cos my view was limited =.=

After the race finished, we walked around the place. Some kids were competing for breakdance here. Nice!

Aircon! Woohoo!!!! Finally an air conditioned place to chill for awhile. This is the science exhibition.

Lots of IT and science stuff were placed around. We wanted to surprise Kee Man who is supposed to be at the Unimas booth but failed cos he wasn't around =.=

And what's this? This is a mind game I managed to win! Won a simple badge but who cares about the prize when it's the puzzle that I actually managed to solve =P *proud*

Last photo before we ran all the way under the rain to our car back at Taman Kereta. Hahaha! This is where Tweet-Up Kuching 2012 is gonna be. Mark the date down on your calendar. 8th December 2012. Come to this venue and let's have fun together!!!

Princess's Birthday

HELLO NOVEMBER!!! 

Quick review: Last month was awesome despite that I was being hospitalized =P I had a superb time with colleagues and crews and ST3P family. Things are getting good. Life is getting GREAT! I'm happily enjoying my everyday life now =) With all the loves around me, I know this year will end with a good chapter. Heee~

Anyway, here are some updates. Princess Jovell's birthday was actually back in July. I don't remember blogging anything about that. I did not join in her birthday celebrations but I got a gift.

Princess Jovell in her new dress. Hehe =) I love dressing up my girls in pretty dresses. Next time will pamper them with tons of hair accessories. Dear mommy Yin, please don't nag. Haha!

Aren't they adorable?

And here is for last month's celebration. It was just the next day after I discharged from hospital. We were all gathered at Yin's mom's house to celebrate her mom's birthday but because I missed Daphne's birthday, I brought her gift along.

Princess Daphne in her new red dress. She's growing up to be a beautiful isn't it? =)

A blur shot taken by Uncle Gab. No skill la bro. Hahaha!

The party went on with Uncle Welly distracting the girls with his phone's games. I think I need to start downloading games into my phone. Hmm......

A shot of all 3 of them. Can't wait to see them again! Love much!!!

The Bites @ Batik Boutique Hotel

Last weekend, I was given the privilege to dine at The Bites which is located at Batik Boutique Hotel. It's just right opposite Tun Jugah shopping mall in case you don't know. The place used to be Tarot Salmon Anyway, there's tons of photos ahead so keep scrolling and keep reading~

View from the main entrance. A small restaurant that opens for breakfast til supper.

There's a round table set for bigger gatherings. See that sliding door over there? It actually leads to a garden bar! Dang I love that bar! Gotta hang out there some time =P

Lemon soda with mint. Nope. Not my drink. Just for the sake of photo =P

My blackcurrant soda with lemon. Me love Ribena!

Pumpkin soup. Love how they decorate their food =)

And my beautiful mushroom soup with garlic bread =D They actually made this mushroom soup from scratch! It's not available elsewhere. The taste is just so different. You gotta give this a try!

Fresh vege salad. Yummy! Ever seen a salad with brinjal? You can definitely find it here!!!

Lamb burger set that comes with wedges. Not mine. Lamb isn't my favourite. Heee~ But this patty looks good =P~

Chicken burger with pineapple! First time encounter this. Wonder how it tastes like.

Now here is my favourite beef burger!!! They made all the patties by themselves. This is how special the place is. They actually made everything by themselves.

Lastly, I must present this to you. This is a treat from the management. It's called jelly mooncake infused with tuak and wolfberries. One piece cost RM5. Now this is a MUST-TRY when you visit the place. It's seriously awesome stuff!!! I wanted to buy back but that's all they had and we finished it =P I'm not a fan of tuak and this is only the second time I tasted it, all I can say is it got me wanting more! I shall go back and have some take-away =D

Later after the meal, the lady was kind enough to show us around the hotel room. It's my first time into the place. Looks good, feels good!

Just so you can get the feel too =P Beautiful architecture isn't it?

One of the room showed to us. Simple and made all of us wanted to just stay there for a night. Hee~

Beautiful bathroom! I love the glass panel and the head shower!

This is the bathroom of another room. A more special one with bathtub and 2 doors! There's actually another tempered glass sliding door that you can open and *ahem* enjoying watching movie while bathing =P~ Oh come on! We all know that's not the purpose of that door! Hahaha!

View from inside the bathroom. Ok I wanna bath now. Bye! =P

My judgment?

Food wise: It's special because they made everything on their own from scratch. I'll probably give the lamb burger a try next time.
Price wise: It's just the standard price. The portion is rather huge so it is worth your every cents! RM5 for a piece of jelly mooncake infused with tuak and wolfberries? I will DEFINITELY go back and buy!
Environment: Cozy and comfy. But am loving the garden bar more than the restaurant =P

In simple words, just give it a shot if you've never been there before. A place worth trying out!
