Gluttony at its finest.

First up, just wanna wish a Happy Birthday to a dear friend, Raymond :)

Thanks for all the times you planned all those great trips for us (we appreciate it more than you know) and also for entertaining us everytime there's alcohol involved ;) Have a great birthday k!

To be perfectly honest, I feel useless lately. And I think that sums up how I feel in nearly every aspect of my life. 

My greatest achievement of the week (basically, the entire 2012 so far) would probably be how I successfully drove to Cyberjaya without really getting lost (I was only a little lost but still not totally lost, geddit?) and hah, I didn't panic either. 

However, that might have had something to do with the fact that the best friend was in the car with me, so I wasn't going through the ordeal alone. The boy tagged along to keep me company and to make sure I wouldn't end up in another state. Well, even though he refused to provide me with directions, but only offering delayed feedback AFTER I made the wrong turnings, eg: "Karyn, you know you were supposed to turn right, right?" till I begged for him to redirect me to the correct route, I am still pretty proud of myself. *beams

Before I digress any further, let me continue on with my post, which is intended to show you how much I've been eating lately. 

....Healthy lifestyle? What healthy lifestyle? Le sigh.

Went to our regular vegetarian restaurant in Taipan on the 1st of Jan for my parents' 25th anniversary. The silver anni, or so they say :) This is vegetarian curry mutton. Not bad, not bad at all.

Kangkung belacan that can give other kangkung belacans a run for their money.

My fav vegetarian dish of all. The fake buttered prawns, yums.

Claypot tofu. Who knew vegetarian food could taste so good?

The following night, I went down to Klang with my friends to have dinner at Boston. We waited for 1.5 hours before our food arrived. 

What I would call their signature dish. The nestum heyko.

A steamed egg so ugly, I don't even know why I bothered snapping a picture. I think my mum's one is better.

Kangkung belacan. I preferred the vegetarian one I mentioned earlier because this was a bit too watery.

Salted fish with pork belly. Okay only.

The other must have there, the steamed lalas with ginger. I ate so many, totally yummy.

I love squishy seafood.

Last night, went to Mama's Kitchen @ Puchong with the high school girlfriends. We just drove past the place and randomly picked it. This is their claypot loh shu fan, which I think is their famous dish but it was only so-so for me.

Creamy buttered chicken. Sinful sinful sinful.

Some kinda pork.

Baby kai lan.

We went to The Library @ IOI Boulevard after that, but I skipped the drinks for this session.

So cute, no?

We were all in the same class when we were 9, became best friends at 15, drifted apart somewhat during our uni years, but found our way back to each other again only recently and I'm thankful :) psst, Ade, don't worry, you are not forgotten.

With Jing, person who sat beside me throughout my Form 4 & 5 life. Also the person who worked as a waitress with me when I was 15 and 16. Good times.

The guys dropped by too and all these people were probably my closest and dearest back in school, with the exception of my own classmates (only Jing and I were in sub science while they were all Bio people).

Best friends since '06. No matter how far he sails away and how many times or how long I sulk and refuse to talk to him, I know he'll always be there for me. Are you reading this?

My dinner just now, Zen @ Pyramid, with two of my long time buddies.

Beef steak something.

Curry udon, which I had to finish for my guy friend with a small appetite. Gee.

Some tempura.

Soft shelled crabs.

Caterpillar roll. Pretty meh for me.

Dragon roll!

Saba fish set or something like that.

The spread for the three of us, thanks to my friend who ordered like a king and treated us to dinner.

Ended the night at OverTime @ Pyramid and I finally learned how to play that Chinese dice game! 

p/s:
Sometimes, I am so terrified that I will suck at life. My deepest fears are getting the best of me, that I'll be nothing but a failure. I wished I could see what people see in me and actually start believing in them too.
