Hello! [Thu Feb 2011 at 8:38am] It feels so weird to be updating on livejournal again after a good 6 months of Wordpress :) Anyway, I changed my URL on wordpress to LYNFUNKSTAR because I was getting irritated from typing in ASLIGHTREMINDEROFME in the login box. So leceh! Hope everyone is well. Light and love to all of you!  3 comment

[Sat Jun 2010 at 11:42am] In a bid to tempt myself back to so-called 'writing', I've been messing with HTML codings since 9am, trying to come up with something feasible, but I still ended up with this boring layout. I'm pretty upset at myself right now. What happened to the days where I used to design my own graphics, write up my own CSS codings? I knew how to change the colours of the scroller, do 3Ds graphics... and now? I couldn't even align the entries to come out in the center!

goholiday [Fri May 2010 at 11:26pm] Since January, I've been to : Bandung Jakarta Roadtrip to Kuantan Pangkor Phuket Phi Phi Roadtrip to Ipoh + Tanjong Malim and tomorrow, I'm leaving with my fellow AMP kids to Bali for our 'team-building trip', which is basically code for a mahjuh drunkfest and a reason to romp around for the next few days. I was a little disappointed when I found out the company was heading to Bali (there were rumours that the first choice was Shanghai or somewhere in China) but it should be fun :) The last company trip we had to Bangkok in 2008 was wicked, and even I experienced such culture shock to see my peers acting the way they did..... guess that's why they always say what happens in _________, stays in _________, eh? We'll be there for 4 days, and then in the next 2 weeks I'll be heading to Singapore to visit my baby cousins (and to obviously check out the Great Singapore Sale!).  Between the random holidays (although it's not London, Paris or Australia) and Bali tomorrow and Singapore in two weeks, it's safe to say I'll be pretty broke till July, but I can't say I don't enjoy getting away from KL every so often. It does help to cleanse my mind and soul to be away from the normal routine here. and her sister Tamara! can't wait for June :)  2 comment

ATV, Kampung Kemensah [Fri May 2010 at 2:55am] A few weeks back, a couple of friends- of - friends made plans to try out the ATV Adventure Park at Kampung Kemensah (which is about half an hour into the road behind Zoo Negara) and of course I jumped at the idea! I've been wanting to try out ATV for ages but nobody seemed keen enough to commit plans with me :( Each of us paid RM150 for a 2 and a half hour slot. I have to admit that it was kinda expensive (to me at least) but then again everything recreational in Malaysia does requires sufficient funding. It's sad sometimes, because there's so many things that I want to try out (white water rafting at Kuala Kubu Baru and diving at Tioman amongst a few) but it's all so expensive! Guess that's why most Malaysian teens end up lepaking tepi jalan and just roaming the malls instead, eh? It was pretty straight forward from there- they give you a helmet, and brief explanation on how to ride the ATV. I was told that it's exactly like a scooter, where you have the clutch, the gears, and the breaks. Then you go for a couple of laps around the main office before you actually hit the course. Easy-peasy, right?   This is us, upon arrival at the Sofia Jane waterfall, about half an hour later. Anyway no one told us how hard manevouring the ATV can be, ok! My palms were in pain and I was praying hard that the vehicle stay on the damn course and not slip into the ravine below. It's definitely NOT as easy as it looks, do you know how crazy easy it is for the vehicle to slip when you drive through mud??   Having this plastered on the side of the vehicle didn't help either. Severe injury? Death? What if the ATV flips over? What if it glides too much in the mud and I can't control it? What if it falls into the hole near that little wooden bridge that we had to cross! I swear this thoughts floated in my mind everytime I went too fast and the vehicle started gliding....     FYI it's named after Sofia Jane because she apparently filmed a scene from a notorious movie there, back in the day (only movie that came to my mind was Perempuan, Isteri dan .....) You have to trek a little from the top to the bottom of the waterfall, but it was well worth it. The air was fresher, the water was cool, and best of all, there was no rempits around to harass you!  By the time we were done at the waterfall, it was already 7.30pm and it was pitch-dark. The ride back was intense, imagine 5 ATVs back to back in COMPLETE DARKNESS (sans the guide in front, his vehicle was the only one with lights). It was euphoric- you have to rely on your judgement, and you have to be alert enough not to hit the ATV in front of you. It took us about 20 minutes of riding in the darkness before we finally reached the main building, where we were told we were the FIRST group to ever ride at night.  I'm assuming he meant the first beginners group, since I was yelling and panicking most of the way. All in all it was an amazing experience and I would love to go again if I have extra money to blow! Any takers? :D 2 comment

Khad's 25th / Tamarind Hill [Fri May 2010 at 2:10am] The amazing party packs, courtesy of Alia and Salina. There was everything from candy, to bubble blowers, little fairy wands, earrings (for the girls) and even football plushies (for the boys)! The birthday girl :) The awesome vanilla-rainbow cake by Ayesha of Bite Me! I totally recommend her for being so accommodating and doing an excellent job on the cake- it was beautiful and delish as well!  Check out more of her offerings here; (she makes macaroons too!) or e-mail her at flowercarnage@gmail.com comment
