Someone read my mind, before I could wait for the weekend and shop for the things I want I already received an early birthday gift.





a lowerpro shoulder/waist camera bag


Hey you,

I didn't say enough how much I love it, but you know I'm bad at words. I thought I could think of something great to say in the post... but nothing could describe. I love the gift, thank you.
Thank you for such a sweetheart and picked the bag. Thank you for such a sweetheart and being there for me in joy and tears moments.


Love you,
Soph

I know I could say we're through
And tell myself I'm over you
But even if I made a vow
A promise not to miss you now
And try to hide the truth inside
I'd fail cause I, I just can't live a lie

Picture perfect memories scattered all around the floor
Reachin' for the phone 'cause I can't fight it anymore
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now...

Borneo Kek Lapis

Some of you may know that Sarawak is famous of Kek Lapis (layers cake). Kek Lapis is quite special in a way. There are many flavor of kek lapis, some are plain vanilla, chocolate, watermelon, cheese and many more. Some even has the mix flavors and that what make kek lapis special.

My friend and family brought me to Kampong Gersik in Kuching to get some kek lapis back to KL. I thought it was just some stalls sell the kek lapis but it's way out of my expectation.





Kek Lapis house

Inside the small tiny road, there is this house that sell all type of kek lapis. Not just that, they do have samples for you to taste before you buy.


Oh did I mention A lot of samples? Lots of them... all flavors, fresh bake from the oven...




The little girl wait for the fresh baked samples :P












And they do sell other assorted snacks and local food as well.




Now choose which one you wanna buy!

Out of the house, there are many stalls along the road there sell kek lapis as well. Many of them...





I can't wait to go back there and get a real holidays XD

Borneo, The Heavenly Delicious

Okie, before I say anything I shall declare for a bit about the title. The term Heavenly is from my personal point of view and...and...and it does not mean that only Borneo food are heavenly delicious.

Last month I was on a business trip to Kuching, Sarawak. I never say no to go Kuching, in fact I never say no to travel heh. It's such a great place to relax and enjoy. I love the food. I love the people.

This post is more for the food and there will be another post for the Borneo Discovery ya.

May I introduce to you John's Place.


It famous for the Char Keow Tiow Kerang (Friend flat noodle with cockles) with sambal.
I have got to say that it is really delicious, not as oily as other place. Love it!

And I must not forget to mention about the beer. Oh good God, where else can you find 3 cans of beer for only RM10? Of course you can get it a lot cheaper in Langkawi but I'm talking about Kuching here. It's super cheap!

Next, Steamboat! There was the whole road full of steamboat buffet house for you to choose in the city of Kuching at the very reasonable price. The steamboat buffet of course come with fresh seafood, fresh red meat, marinated meat, assorted meat and many other meat and vegetable.
