Aww! So Cute!

We saw her while we were strolling along the beach in Bray. Her owner was feeding her an ice-cream.


With the consent of the owener, Nel snapped some pictures of her! Though the ice-cream seemed to be yummy, she realised someone was spying her.


Alerted, she paused, turned and stared at Nel with a what-do-you-want-dude kind of look.


So cute! Her mouth was still stained with vanila ice-cream :)

Bad Mood

Why am I in such a bad mood?!?!?


Sometimes I find myself getting really irritable for almost no reason. Suddenly I am feeling down without knowing why? My mood swing like a roller coaster! I can go from sadness to anger in a matter of minutes. I think I need to attend some anger management treatment or learn how to take control of my own emotion.

Oh, I feel so irritating now. What am I suppose to do?

A night out

I had dinner with colleagues after work tonight. We went to "Lemon" at Dawson Street - it's a cafe where they serve crepes, waffles and great coffee. I had a crepe with milk choc and vanilla ice-cream - €6.30. The price is quite reasonable for Dublin standard. It's been a while since I last had one.

It's relaxing having a good time chatting with colleagues after a busy working day.

I know tomorrow it's Labour Day in M'sia but there is no such Labour's Day in Ireland. In fact my colleagues don't even know what does Labour's Day celebrate for?
I have to work tomorrow.
It's ok. I will have a long weekend anyway because the coming Monday is a Bank Holiday :)

Friday - Snack day :)

I know it's unhealthy but it would not harm anything to have it once in a while right?
It's a must have when I catch up some movies smilies
I am thinking should I watch Hong Kong series or "The Game Plan" by The Rock. Maybe both :)

Thank god it's Friday!

Paris Oh Paris

It's sunny on our first day to Paris. Excited, we strolled along the banks of River Seine in the morning and crisscrossed several historic bridges along the way. It's really soothing and relaxing when cool breeze bashed onto our faces.

I never understand why is Paris being touted as one of the most romantic cities on planet earth? Ladies especially would not hesitate to rank Paris as the city which they wish to visit most. Paris is a lovely place, indeed. As for me, it's probably not my cup of tea for romantic trip :)

I suppose it depends very much on who you're travelling with. It's always romantic if you're spending quality time with your loved one!


Our first attraction was Saint Chapelle - another gothic chapel with high stained glass windows. It was Nel who plan the itinerary.


Okay, call me bitchy. I've had enough of visiting cathedrals, chapels, monasteries or churches. All of them look identical to me. party smileys


Since Nel wanted to go, so go lor... it costed us €7 per person for entrance ler :(


After visiting Saint Chapelle, we headed straight to another church! I thought what a great itinerary. Fortunately this is a famous one - Notre Dame.




"The Hunchback of the Notre Dame" is a renowned novel written in 19th century. 'Luck' was on our side, we encountered the Hunchback at cathedral entrance. T-hee. Smart chap trying to earn himself a living! Be prepared to pay if you want to take picture with him.


Although it's another church but I had not complaint on Notre Dame. Contradictory, ain't I? scuba diving in Belize


Let me explain. First of all, Notre Dame is a must visit to Paris and it's one of the top tourist attractions in Paris. Secondly, it's free to enter the cathedral. Yes, no entrance fee except if you want to climb to the top for a bird's eye of Paris skyline!!! Saint Chapelle charged me €7.

The rear of Notre Dame :)


A trip to Paris would not be complete if your itinerary doesn't include the ever famous Eiffel Tower. We went to base of the tower but decided not to ascend to the top viewing platform as it was freezing cold that night. We were longing to get indoor and had a warm dinner. Besides we were thinking to get to the top of Eiffel when my in-laws visit us hopefully this coming summer. So that we could get up there together, saving the best for the next trip smoking alternative

My friend said Paris is a place she would wants to visit and visit and visit and visit and visit again!


I certainly would love to visit Paris again if given a chance.

Paris Disneyland

During the last Christmas season, we went to Paris for holiday. We were mindful that a lot of tourist spots would be closed on Christmas and St Stephen Days. As such, we planned our trip to visit Disneyland on the 25th. The entrance tickets alone costed us €100 (€50 per person).unhappy smileys

Paris Disneyland is extensive! There are so many parks and playground areas until I could barely remember the layout! Walt Disney Studio, Disney Village and Disneyland Park which consists Fantasyland, Adventureland, etc.

We've anticipated that we won't be able to finish visiting all of the parks in one day! So we're only visiting Disneyland Park only during our visit.

Disneyland Park is a great place to have fun. Despite of the architecture grandeur and joyful atmosphere, I still wanna to complain about a few experiences which pissed me off.


1. I hate Mickey because he did not chose me for the private photo session! Mickey is immensely popular. There were only a handful of the crowd who had got the privilege to take photo with him and they were handpicked by Mickey.


2. I hate Mr Donald Duck as well because he didn't avail himself 5sec for a one-to-one photo with me. Instead he's enjoying himself taking photos with a whole bunch of girls! I want private picture with Donald; not group photos like this. By the way, the girl on the other side of him is not my friend. I don't know her -_-


Alright, enough of complaining.

Since we paid to come here, we might as well enjoy the day and be like a KID! We went for the ever popular Disney classics like Merry-go-round, roller coaster, etc.


We were there for the whole day - played like kids and snapped photos like no tomorrow.



One of the highlights was definitely the classic Disney parade which was scheduled during the evening. Various Disney characters such as Cinderella, Snow White, Beauty and the beast, bla bla bla, marched down the boulevard.



When attending pop concerts, you'd hear enthusiastic fans shouting "Britney," "Madonna," "Justin,"

At the parade, all I heard was "Mickey! Mickey!" and "Oh Goofy! Goofy!" All the kids around were so ecstatic and crazy of their heros! Even Nel joint in the fun and chanted "Mickey!" What a big kid!


Judging from the photos posted, Nel's friend commented that she has been to Hong Kong's, LA's, Florida's and Japan's Disneylands and yet none of them looks as gorgeous as Paris'!

I don't know scuba diving Great Blue Hole

I doubt that I will ever go to another Disneyland again; unless when I have kids later :)

I think it'd be more fun if we could overnight at one of the hotels in the Disneyland. 3D2N would be just nice. You would have ample time to truly treasure the parks and not rushing yourself to one game and the next most of the time. But the hotels rate are relatively expensive though :(
