Celebrating birthday at Italiannies

Took half day leave on Thursday, December 6, 2012 to accompany a birthday girl for lunch at Italiannies, Paradigm Mall.  Made it just in time for the quick lunch (Monday - Friday from 11am - 3pm).

Started off with bread and pumpkin soup

salad

pizza

spaghetti

and bread pudding.

For RM29.90++ it's worth it!

Celebrating Christmas 2012 and new year 2013

"On the ninth day of Christmas,

my true love sent to me

Nine ladies dancing,

Eight maids a-milking,

Seven swans a-swimming,

Six geese a-laying,

Five golden rings,

Four calling birds, 

Three French hens,

Two turtle doves,

And a partridge in a pear tree!"

Today is the ninth day of Christmas and the second day of the new year 2013.

Received lots of Christmas gifts this year, surprisingly ~ More than ten is considered a lot for me as it is definitely more than I ever received in the past years ~ Received gifts as early as December 10, 2012. Hmmm... not posting all the photos here, though.

 Even received two more today :)

No change in welcoming the new year, though... I did exactly the same as previous years.  I just sit back home and watched tv on new year eve and spent the new year day at the airport catching the flight back.

Till next week, looking forward for a good if not better year ahead.

Looking for kek lapis and laksa Sarawak

Met up my classmate from university this afternoon. She took the day off today. We haven't met each other since we graduated which is more than ten years ago. She looks the same to me :)  

Our itinerary includes looking for kek lapis

 and having laksa Sarawak.

Kek lapis Sarawak is a layered cake, traditionally served in Sarawak. Laksa Sarawak is a noodle soup with a base of sambal belacan, sour tamarind, garlic, galangal, lemon grass and coconut milk, topped with omelette strips, chicken strips, prawns, fresh coriander, lime, bean sprouts and sliced fried tofu.

Decided to go to Mira Cake House for kek lapis Sarawak and laksa Sarawak at Mom's Laksa Cafe.

Bought eight kek lapis and the laksa was delicious.  More importantly, it was great to meet up after all these years.

Till next week, looking forward to be back in my hometown soon.

Tesco Walk for Life 2012

Every year Tesco organises an annual walk to raise fund for charity.  This year Tesco works hand in hand with University of Malaya Medical Centre in helping children with leukaemia.  The event was held at Bukit Jalil Park on Sunday, December 9, 2012.

Collection of T-shirt is upon registration which started at 6.30 am. 

We were flagged off at 8.15 am after a warm-up session.  We received a certificate of participation and goodie bag upon completion.

There were rounds of lucky draw after the walk ~ no luck, though... but it was fun!

Till next week, looking forward to my 2-week break :)

The food is ok but the service...hmmmmmm :(

Till next week, looking forward to join the Tesco Walk for Life this Sunday.

Ultrasound at Columbia Asia Hospital Cheras

Heard about a promotion on breast ultrasound for only RM70 at Columbia Asia Hospital Cheras from a colleague recently. The promotion is held in conjunction with the breast awareness campaign from October 1 to November 30, 2012. 

I did breast examination during my medical check up last year but I didn't do ultrasound so I decided to do it this year. I went to Columbia Asia Hospital Cheras for the ultrasound on Monday, November 26, 2012. 

Columbia Asia Hospital Cheras is located at Lot 33107 Jalan Suakasih, 43200 Cheras, Selangor.  It was launched in February 2011.

Here's a part of the waiting area.

Waited a few minutes before I was called in for the ultrasound and a few more minutes after for the results.  Good news ~ everything's well :) yeah!!!

Till next week, stay healthy!
