It was exactly a year ago when I experienced my first helicopter ride. It was the Oris BC4 Flight Timer Watch Launch at Carcosa Seri Negara.

The distinctive, dynamic, daring. That should descriptive enough to describe the Oris BC4 Watch.

Three time zones, a compass and degree scale, and the Oris Quick Lock Crown system it’s the closest you’ll get to a cockpit for your wrist.
Lovely watch, would buy it one day.

Almost knocked out when I reached back home today. Luckily, going back to Kuala Lumpur was traffic free. Yet, a stalled car near my house caused a massive crawl that shouldn’t been happening.
Yesterday, I posted a preview what’s I’m going to show you today.
Tomorrow its the official soft launch of the Hard Rock Hotel in Penang. Being a “kiasu” and also I was so happened in Penang, I decided to drop by for a visit.

I wasn’t lucky. Reached there around 8 pm, and it was still raining. It didn’t stop …

A few Sundays ago, we were invited for a Bridal Fair in Rennaissance Hotel, Kuala Lumpur. We were joined by our usual “suspects” aka our lovely BFF, Missmynx and AgentK.

We went to Carven Ong’s collections and found Big Boys Oven’s cake by chance.

Then, we bumped to Carven Ong.
Rachel first impression to Carven was…”Wah, u so handsome!!!”
Carven laughed it off and said.. “I’m old already, no more handsome”.
Know you understand how Rachel flirts in front of me, sigh…
We had a good conversation with Carven, as Rachel kept on asking for …

Thank you PJ Hilton Hotel, ZestPj.com and theQGuides.com for the generous invitation for a food review session at PJ Hilton. It was the first time that I met up with Cumi and Ciki. In addition, Bangsar Babe, Babe KL and Captain Hook, Frat Mustard and Rebecca were there too! Actually, coincidentally I knew Ciki from my previous water rafting session and Ciki was the last minute photographer by accident for my wedding proposal to Rachel on the hot air balloon.

Cindy of PJ Hilton briefed us on their new exciting blog, …

Well, its not really my intention to do live blogging from Tune Hotel, Penang. Just that I couldn’t sleep even a whole day long of work so why not?
I checked in quarter to 12 midnight. Pre-booked the rooms yesterday and got ourselves (me and my crews) a very small but very clean and modern looking rooms. Its a one night stay, I’m leaving later.
I posted a few messages on my msn, twitter and plurk asking for supper from Penangites, only a few replied. Knowing my usual over friendly craziness attitude, …

Firefly Watching Viewing @ Firefly Park Resort, Kuala Selangor
Last Sunday, we got received a call from our good friends Khai and Stephanie for a evening trip to Kuala Selangor for firefly watching and it was game on!
We never seen real fireflies before, we normally seen in on TV like many other city dwellers do.
Thus, we decided to drive to Kuala Selangor. From Kuala Lumpur, we drove to Kuala Selangor via Sungai Buloh.

The great thing about the journey was there are signs leading us to Kuala Selangor as we didn’t have …

Pangkor Island Beach Resort Review
(Aug ’07) – Found this in one of my old hard drives. It was my maiden trip to Pangkor Island.
The journey from Kuala Lumpur to Lumut was around 3 1/2 hours. We parked at the multi level car parks beside the jetty.
One thing good about Pangkor Island Beach Resort was they have their own ferry. The receptionist checked our booking and we were on our way to “paradise”.

The resort and its private beach…

Sunset by the beach…

Lots of hornbills and lots of monkeys as well…

Pictures taken from …

We got a really good deal to Langkawi in Oct with Air Asia Package. We chose Aseania Resort. The place itself is huge. In fact, it is famous for its longest swimming pool in Malaysia. I don’t expect much from a 3 stars hotel.

The rooms were still okay. There were stains here and there which I don’t really mind. The corridor was a bit of run down. However, the service was good. They have local channels only, not even Astro was there, I wonder why.

The breakfast was decent. Eggs, Fried …

Redang Beach Resort Review
My first visit to Redang Island few months back was a good one. Like many first timers, I did a google search for which best value resort to stay in Redang. I chose Redang Beach Resort. For the price I’ve paid, I expect nothing spectacular from it.

We were given a few minutes walk from the small little jetty on the island as I didn’t expect anything from it…

But from the way we look at it, I knew the resort was good….

The canteen, 3 plus 1 snack …
