My very first experience

This is my second week in the state and i had the best weekend ever yesterday night!

I never have such crazy time ever in my life!!!

12-13-14 (Saturday) is the first time that i went to a real bar! a very cool bar in town. The Great Northern Bar where everyone hang out on weekend. 

The Great Northern Bar & Grill

I don't know why i never been to a bar, no one ever asked me to. And i find it so fun!! maybe that's because i'm in America, i feel safe here. (if u know what i mean)

I went with all the other international student joining the same program here and they are so friendly and on going. 

i drank just two pint of beer and i'm the one that drink the least last night. we talk to so many people (stranger) and among ourself and i like it. This is so fun!! Now i know why people like to get drunk. hehehe

Talking to stranger is nice, because i know that they are not going to see us around.. hahaha. so it's okay to do embarrassing things.

After the bar closed around 12.30am the night is still on! I mean hey, how can a party night end at 12? We went across the street to a club name Casey.

Casey 

This is my first ever experience to a club! OMG!! i'm freaking excited and i feel so fun! Maybe because this is my first time. But i'm probably too old to go clubbing for first time, most people go once they reach the age to party! I am not joking, this is my first clubbing experience and i gave it to America~ (you can laugh as hard as u want at me)

I don't really know how a club back in Malaysia looks like. This club is quite small but crowded. 

hmm... how people actually dance in club? Everyone is dancing and i just shake my body like a cow trying to dance. But it's awesome to party with a bunch of great people! and everyone dance so crazy. 

Life is so fun, enjoy, relaxing here and i don't want it to end!!!

i met great and fun people and everyone is so out going. I'm leaving my shyness behind and get along too. Anyhow, i'm a nobody here and i can do all those embarrassing thing here. hahaha.. so cool~ 

I LOVE MY LIFE~

Hello from USA!

It's been a long way from Malaysia to Montana.. Almost 36-40 hour of flight (didn't really count it) and is freaking tired.

4 boarding pass for a single trip!! (which means 4transit!!) so crazy.. haha
It's my first experience with United Airline and i have to say that they are really great! *thumb up*

I was lucky that on my longest connecting flight (Tokyo - Denver) i was given the economy plus seat!! i got more space on my leg! (like i don't really need extra space for my leg, if u know what i mean.. )
But is pretty cool that this is my 1st experience on premium seat.. haha

Dinner on the plane : Beef with rice... the butterscotch brownie is awesome!!
see how big the salad is.. hahaha

The breakfast looks like a normal western style breakfast.

I pass my night at Whitefish Mountain Resort (Which is the place that i work) and here is the awesome view from my balcony!!

I did not edit the picture below, because once edited, it feel so fake.. haha.. 

It's snowing when the picture is taken, so this is how the snow flakes is captured.. haha

This is where we pass our first night.. so comfy 

a real fireplace 

 This couch/bed is so awesome.. and how u lay on bed and watch tv feel just like home.

A king size bed bedroom~ 

The wardrobe

A typical American style toilet.

On the next day, me and my travel buddy (3 others from Malaysia that join the same program) were brought to our apartment. hehe... u will never guess where we stay.

And here's my crib~

Nando's Peri-Vilege Phone Apps

Do you love Nando's ? Or do u eat Nando's once a month or maybe few times a year?

I am a newbie in this apps and download it before i made my payment on my last visit (just yesterday. hahaha) so I can take advantage of my visit. (free apps... so nothing to loss)

I don't mind having this extra apps in my phone as i don't have much apps too, and the best thing is that i don't need an extra privilege card to collect/redeem rewards. There is too many cards (i don't even remember when is the last time i use them) and is adding useless weight to my wallet.

Is very ORGANIC, no any printing material is needed.

Rakuzen Dining

Review : 

• The food is delicious and fresh. 
• The service is great. Waiter/waitress will always be around, collect used plates/bowl and to refill green tea. 
• Comfortable and clean dining environment. 
• Reasonable Price. The price is not over-rated like some restaurant which cause a hole on my wallet
• One point that must be mention, i don't have problem making my order because the staff is local that understand all my needs. *I really hate visiting those restaurant that hire all foreign worker that cannot understand english/ malay (which is the most spoken language in Malaysia) and cannot get the order right. This gives customer a bad dining experience.* There is also foreign worker in this place but they are only serving and refiling drinks, not responsible for taking order. Good Job for this arrangement!!!
• Advisable to make reservation in advance. It's always full house even on weekday!

Dinner at Sri Ayutthaya Thai Restaurant

 I love Thai food very much and Thai food is indeed one of my favourite cuisine. *slurp* Wish i can eat Thai food everyday... (but i think my tummy cannot withstand it. hahaha)
Last Tuesday, The J and I went to Sri Ayutthaya (Authentic Thai Cuisine) to celebrate my belated birthday. I had been there on my last birthday too. (guess how much i love Thai food?)
The environment is really cozy, quiet, and comfortable.

Must have a selfie before the food is served. 

Check the rose petal on the table. Looks so romantic ~

My Favourite Thai dish : Tom Yum Kung

Love the sour + spicy taste of the soup, addition to the fresh prawn and white mushroom.

My 2nd Favourite Thai Dish : Mango Salad 

I love the raw mango, it taste so sour and spicy (with cili paid in it) and the crunchy peanut. 

I ate the whole plate of it! So yummy. 

Pineapple Fried Rice 

Love the aroma of the rice and it taste really nice. There is lots of other ingredient in it but i can't name it. Oopsss!

This yummy fried rice come with a heavy price tag.

Deep Fried Fish with Sour & Spicy Sauce

Happy 24th Birthday dairy

I am a horse (in Chinese Zodiac) and this is the 2nd horse year that i celebrate. (u know my age now..)
This year celebration is hmm.... i don't exactly know how to say, one word : different!
I don't celebrate everyday but since my birthday this year, i have been going out everyday... (it hasn't end yet!! haha)
I feel great because that makes me feel popular (which i'm not). I just go out on my own expense, not like i get celebration, cake and present everyday. It would be great if everyone that ask me out actually remember my birthday, sing me a song, or bring me a slice of cake (is so sad for birthday with no cake) *sorry i might be too demanding*

A golden horse as a starter

17th (My birthday !!)
Went to KLCC (not exactly celebrate, just eat and chat)

Lunch at UMAI-YA Japanese Restaurant

After lunch, went to watch Maze Runner. Like finally, i wanted to watch for so long and finally get the chance to watch it. 

I like the movie, i like the feeling of suspend (not horror, don't misunderstand), adventure. 

Pay my first visit to the Aquarium, which is quite costly (RM35 - Malaysian, RM50 - Non-Malaysian)

he/she is smiling. LOL

Ocean life (fake)

Lion Fish. 

My present! (sorry for the ugly water mark on the box, that's the Juice Work's juice fault!)

Thank you for the gift, Alex!! 

18th (Saturday)

Well, my fren told me they will be visiting me and i expect they would arrive in the morning but they arrive by 8.30pm. i'm really happy that they came all the way from KL but this late?!

Nothing much that we can do by late night here.

So i brought them for dinner and went to I-city. There is quite a lot of attraction and games at I-city now. We watch the 5D movie (Roller coaster) and it's the first time that i laugh from the beginning till the end while 'riding' a roller coaster. 

A random picture to test everyone handphone camera. I WON!! 

19th (Sunday)

Went to a funeral in the morning with my family.

Next, went to One Utama Shopping Centre to check on my sister as she and her teammate represent TARUC Architecture to compete along 10+ university/college/poly

PAM Annual Architecture Student Works Exhibition 2014

Theme : Healthy and Happy Space

Best Booth Display Awards Display First Prize : 

Tunku Abdul Rahman University College

I guess all the other university will looks so surprise to see their design. 

Don't look down on these 'not so famous' university/college because of their cheap tuition fees. 

Even the judges don't believe they made it and ask if there is professional that help them with it. All of them spend countless hour on designing and redo-ing everything, the least thing that everyone should do is to doubt their hardwork.

What you should know : The university DO NOT define YOU.

After the prize giving ceremony, my girlfriends (BFFs!!) come pick me and head for the celebration dinner! Yipee!!

It's my first visit to Solaris Mount Kiara!!
