Doughnuts


Two doughnuts right before you.
Are they both real?
Or are they both fake?
Haha. I can tell you one is real, while the other one is fake.
Once costs RM16, the other one only costs around RM3.
The expensive one can't be eaten.
The cheaper doughnut is from Krispy Kreme, but it isn't all that great.
Too much flour, too filling, too starchy for me.
Even if the whole United States of America think it's the best doughnuts EVER,
Even if Oprah Winfrey says Krispy Kreme doughnuts are deliciously awesome,
I still think J&Co doughnuts from Indonesia are the BEST!
What say you?

Which is your favourite doughnuts?
J and Co's
Krispy Kreme
Big Apple
Dunkin Donuts
I don't eat doughnuts

Loving my new hair!


New hair colour, that is! Hahaha.

And to think that this was so random. I was feeling bored with my hair and it was getting too long. There was no way I was going back to Zola because Ah Gil will never cut my hair shorter even if I complain that the incredible length was making my hair even drier and frizzier. And not to forget, making the top of my head look flat (and ugly). And he will complain that colouring my hair is gonna make my hair frizzier. And he will complain and complain and complain. I beh tahan liao!

So I smsed "I m bored wif my hair... Feel like colouring it" to my sister, Suzan (in Singapore) and Pranati. Honestly speaking, I was expecting my sister not to respond, Suzan to say "Go colour lah" and Pranati to talk me out of colouring my hair. In the end, my sister did not respond (as expected... haha!), Suzan also did not respond (wonder why) and Pranati sent me this...


... which was the COMPLETE OPPOSITE of what I expected to hear from her! Haha. I guess living overseas does change you somehow.

We opted to go for Infinity hair salon in 1Utama. I like the environment there and everything. Not to forget, the guy hairstylists there are pretty good looking. The hair stylists there speak English! And it's not the broken Ah Pek english lor! Not perfect, but proper English. At least they can understand me and I can understand them. And they can explain things to me in English. Previously, I almost always leave hair salons very frustrated because of the language barrier. Somehow none of the hair salons in Sri Petaling has English-speaking stylists.

Ah, I think I've (finally) found the hair salon for me. Hahaha.

I initially wanted to go for cut + colour + hair treatment. But my hair stylist (a woman by the way, I think the guy was the top stylist) recommended that I opt for scalp treatment instead of hair treatment because according to her, I have a very unhealthy scalp with a lot of dead skin cells, residues and clogged pores.

Some people might think that she's just doing hard sales (scalp treatment is RM190, as opposed to hair treatment RM120). But I actually do believe her. Because she managed to explain the mystery of my chronic hair loss. And I have always felt that my scalp was really unhealthy although I can't actually see it because I don't have eyes at the back of my head!

Scalp treatment was awesome! Seriously!! I think it was the 2nd last step when the stylist applied the cool-like-colgate product all over my scalp. You know the spiciness and coolness you feel in your mouth when you pop in the strongest Fisherman's Friend for the very first time? Imagine that exact feeling but ALL OVER YOUR HEAD. It was so so awesome lor! A whole 10 minutes of cheekik-ness!!! It actually felt like it was killing all the stupid problematic cells and refreshing the unhealthy cells. Ya, I know it could be my imagination but it felt like it!

I was told not to wash my hair until 3 days later. At first when she told me, my mind was thinking that I really had to have a lot of self-control because my head normally itches on the second day! Surprisingly, I am pleased to inform you that my scalp did not itch even on the third day. Hair was oily yes. But scalp was itch-free! I'm so happy!!

Did I mention that the hairstylists there thought I was a foreigner? Simply because I spoke English. I'm guessing. They were gossiping about us in Cantonese at the washing hair area there while I was there getting my hair washed. It was so weird. I thought that they were bit daring to talk about us so loudly behind me. Mana tau they thought I wasn't local. No wonder lah.

Ah yes, I am off to Sungai Wang to buy the Nioxin shampoo and conditioner tomorrow. I'm gonna be so so broke. Anyone wants to contribute to my "Prevent Daesi from going botak" fund?

Heaty

While clearing my throat in the morning, I spat out blood-coloured phlegm. I thought my dreamy morning eyes were imagining things, I cleared my throat and spat out the phlegm again. It was blood alright.

Shit man. My body must be suffering from massive heaty-ness. I've known and been heaty, but not to the extend of coughing up blood in my phlegm!!!

My mom said it's because I don't drink enough water. That's why I nose bled while I was sleeping and hence the bloody phlegm. But I wallop the entire 1.5 litres of water everyday! Still not enough! She said I should drink more COLD water or 100 Plus to cool my internal self down.

Then when I got around to drinking ice-cold water, OMG... immediate discomfort! My insides... they felt like being extinguished. Burning man.

Note to self: Drink more cold water, cooling tea. Stay away from spicy food, fried food, milo..... AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!

Off for a Vacation

Yep, I am heading to Singapore tomorrow.
Can't wait to see my Monashian friends there.
The last time I flew to Sibu, it was my first time flying alone.
This time, it'll be my first time flying overseas without my parents.
It feels odd.
But I'm excited (who isn't?)... muahahahaa!

To my friends in KL, see you when I come back!
To my friends in Singapore, get ready coz here I come!

Lunch @ The Apartment

Last Saturday after visiting the MPH warehouse sale in Taman Mayang (SS26), we went to The Curve to eat our lunch. But no idea where or what to eat there. Just go by faith. Hehe. Apparently Ying Ling has not been to The Curve before!! Seriously, although I know this girl since we were in Form 2, this girl still surprises me with new facts every time I meet her!!!

*Shakes head*

We thought of Italiannies but I keep remembering the huge portion which I could barely finish half of it and the huge price tag that comes with it even without the tax and all. We walked around more and finally settled on The Apartment.

The whole concept of The Apartment is so unique. I mean, check out the interior design of the restaurant...


The furnitures they use are so simple but yet very classy and comfy. And somehow, each table has their own unique characteristic and colour. We just didn't know where to sit coz all the tables are so pretty and they're different from each other.


Even the menu is different from your regular type. LOL.


The atmosphere itself is different from your typical restaurants. I just felt like we were at someone else's home eating homecook food. Seriously.

And just check out the booth we sat in ^^


Got bed-seat one leh. And it's soft and comfy. Maybe not for older folks. My parents tell me that they like their bed hard coz it's better for their bones and posture.

The bed-seat is nice, especially if you feel like sleeping after eating or a long day. Or simply just want to curl up with a book and a cup of hot latte. Or you have young children who are tired and just need a nap, meanwhile you can have your lunch.

I had red mullet spaghetti with anchovies by the way.


Another thing I like about this restaurant is that the portion is neither too big nor small - Just NICE. And the food tasted so good and appetizing that I finished it.

Yes, to all my uni friends, be shocked because I FINISHED my food and sapu my plate clean clean. And I have proof...


... And witness :P

See, now we must all believe that miracles do happen every now and then. Such as Daesi finishing every single bit of food on her plate and not complaining about being too full. Hehehe.


This is what Ying Ling had. Can't remember the name exactly (maybe she'll enlighten me about it later) but the keywords are chicken, spaghetti and mushroom. LOL. I had a bite. And the chicken was chewy (not hard) and juicy (not dry) which was very good (not bad).

Yummy. Looking at these photos remind me of how good the food tasted. I am hungry. And it's 2AM.


This is their dessert-and-drink bar. I think. Don't know exactly the function of this area actually. I'm just merely guessing.

Will definitely go back there again because there're so many other dishes I want to try on the menu coz they all sound so delicious (from their description lah).


This has been one of the highlights of my day. Truly good food and good atmosphere can really make your day.
