Wrote this in KL. Unable to publish it due to sucky connection

I’m in KL and this is my Crib for the day.

(The Swimming Pool of Traders Hotel)

I’m in desperate need of getting a tan. I’m crazy fair, it makes me look blardy lala. The weather report said it’ll be stormy/cloudy today. Well, AT YOUR FACE WEATHER REPORT!

I’m also in desperate need to take a picture of myself at the poolside. But there are A LOT of people around me. And I refuse to be caught red-handed, taking pictures of myself…. especially in this hotel.

While I’m typing this, there are two men really annoying me – one buff, 25ish, OMG-I-cant-believe-your-face-ugly and the other one looks like his dad. The dad is taking pictures of every humanly-capable-pose the son does. And it’s extremely disturbing.

My favorite pose that he has done?

The one where his dad asks him to jump into the pool so he can get a “my-fully-grown-son-can-jump-into-the-air-before-landing-into-the-pool” effect. They did this not one, not two, but 4 bloody times. (yes, I counted) amateurs.

The pool side here is really nice. The only thing lacking is enough places to get a suntan since it is semi-indoor. They turn the whole floor to a bar at night. So i guess, it's pretty cool.

This is the 2nd time Traders did any form of renovation for the swimming pool so do check it out when you're around the block.

Now comes the best part of my whole trip. Ipoh might be the capital for Chinese food, but If you want diversity of Food (which tastes blardy good) , COME TO KL!.

I present to you, the heavenly-est thing you can ever produce with chips, cheese and spinach.

That thing up there, is GLOOOOORRRIIOOUSS.

And now, I have to go shove my face into more food.
*ngom ngom ngom ngom ngom ngom*
Buhhhhhbyeeaa

I finally talked Rachel into taking a picture of me. =)

I'm back in Ipoh already but took really long to get back my blogging mojo, so you get a very delayed post. This is my favorite picture of the trip:

The Stray Cat

The lane where I'm leaving in is polluted with stray cats that dig open garbage bags and poop in our gardens.

Mom and Dad have tried COUNTLESS ways to get rid of them , but the stray cats seem to always outsmart them. Name it, my parents have tried it. Putting poison into fishes, leaving sticky glue on the floor, praying for the death of the cats (seriously), bb guns (dad's idea - FAIL , he forgot that you also need a person with really good aim), yaada yaada yaada.

We came home from an early dinner today only to find a stray cat doing its business right in front of our gate.

Mom gets into "kill-that-stray-cat" mode and starts flickering her car headlights , shinning it at the cat. As in ,she keeps turning the headlights on and off and on back again.

Mom does this for a minute or two. (Which should be unbearably annoying for the cat)

But the cat just stays there and looks at us like we are a bunch of idiots!!


The cat seriously looks at us as if cats are the best species on earth, like the "look-at-me-i'm-so-cool-i-can-pee-on-your-front-gate" look.

Mom continues to flicker her headlights again and again, shouting at the cat (not like it can hear her)

"Stupid Cat! GO AWAY!!! Stupid CAT!!"

*and she flickers the car's headlight again.

Says Rachel,

"Um mom, I don't think the cat is um....... scared of your car lights"
