Goku Raku Ramen @ Mid Valley

after watching Railways (2010) at GSC Mid Valley Japanese Film Festival (RM5 each ticket), organised by Japan Foundation, kilmenyanne and i were starving from lack of dinner. so i intoduced her to a new place (to us) called Goku Raku Ramen because it was having a 50% discount on ALL ramen items on monday and tuesday this september.


i ordered some sort of char siew pork with egg ramen, while kilmenyanne ordered some kind of spicy char siew pork ramen. there is absolutely no way to remember the long food names especially with someone who kept pointing out good looking waiter and waitress left and right.

verdict of Goku Raku Ramen titular dish? absolutely amazing! the broth tasted thick of pork flavor, the ramen smooth and original, while the portion is definitely generous. i would eat here again even without the discount.


our drinks were not discounted but i was too full to refill my refillable hot green tea, and kilmenyanne was contented with a mug of Sapporo beer.

Japanese food is a great way to end a Japanese movie day~

Dong Cha @ IOI Mall

yeay~ this is my second everyday.com.my voucher redemption! quite a delicious treat at only rm4.75 each set.

earlier this week, after weeks and weeks of emailing and postponing, motr and terrasmark finally could meet up together with me on a weekday when i am off work. we went to IOI Mall to redeem three sets of bubble tea and jumbo wagashi at Dong Cha, one for each of us.

see, the boys fighting over who gets their Dong Cha serving first~

guess who got there first? i ninja-ed to the front of the queue!

the photo below shows a delicious large milk tea with black pearls and a belgium chocolate jumbo wagashi (see all that choco cream oozing from the center) - all mine!

The Muse @ Neo Damansara

end of Evangelion photoshoot~ on Twitpic
BEFORE: my "yin-yong" bleached hair (with leftover makeup after the Evangelion photoshoot last weekend).
10am: finally got out of bed after being awake since 8am. i remember about my appointment today at The Muse, so its time to get moving!

11am: i nearly forgot about the voucher after i got changed into my dress, but lucky for the annoying reminder on my not-so-smart-but-sometimes-is smartphone.

(i believe a smartphone is suppose to ease my life by helping me not being late anymore because i am always terribly fashionably late for anything and absolutely everything. so late that it would be appropriate for my coffin to arrive late for my own funeral.)

12noon: i parked in the basement of Neo Damansara (weekday parking rate is RM1 hourly) and made my way up the elevator.

imagine my surprise when i saw The Muse was all black at first, thinking they were closed! T____T it turns out that the glass was just tinted super black.

after i linked my phone to The Muse wifi, i spoke with a couple stylists about which colour to dye and they suggested a shade of brown from their L'oreal range.

before the dye, the daunting moment of truth: how healthy is my scalp? The Muse scalp test revealed i have the average untreated scalp, perhaps causing my thin hair growth due to the cling-film-like layer on my scalp.

1.30pm: wash time~ the dye has set and i am off to receive my scalp treatment and hair treatment. anxious about being late to work again.

2.30pm: yes, i am officially late.

Blogging via Android phone


since i have began to get used to my new phone, courtesy of my very generous cousin, i started to complain about qwerty keys, adding and using that smartphone-exclusive thing called Apps a.k.a. applications.

at the moment i am complaining to myself about typing on qwerty keys to update my blog. Blogaway is a superbly smooth Blogger client app, unfortunately i am not sure about its photo publishing (which only uploads one image per post).

so, beware Blogaway, i will uninstall you in replacement of a better one if this test post does not upload the screenshot of my Japan Life game (level 21).



P.S. leave me a comment below so i can add you as neighbour in Japan Life.

P.P.S. as an additional edit, image does appear and uploaded to picasa (not sure if it was auto or i activated my acc previously) but new image cannot be positioned (auto at top of post).
