Travel: Malaysia... My Truly Last Stop To Manila

I only have one and a half day to explore Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia and all I did were eat and shopping.. and took photos of things I'm not usually fond of but considering of helping people who want to go to Kuala Lumpur someday.

Kuala Lumpur is one of the cheapest place to ride a cab except from/to airport.

Shopping is way cheaper in Malaysia compare to Singapore but I kinda love the vibes in Singapore.

Kuala Lumpur's climate all year round is hot and humid so people go to Genting Highlands to chill out and eat.


Genting Highlands is not a shopping haven, but for people who want to eat good but not great food, its the OK place.

If you're going up to Genting Highlands, you have two choices on what to do there -- either eating to this buffet restaurant or 

going inside this outdoor theme park


Well I chose the buffet restaurant because when I saw the outdoor theme park... ZOMG!! definitely needs a renovation!

I think the 55MYR (includes the RT bus ride from/to City) is worth it if you'll choose the restuarant...



There's no entrance fee in Genting Highlands' indoor theme park except if you want to ride, you have to pay.





After checking out Genting, it was time for my retail therapy in the city

The week I'm out of the country was the same week UNIQLO in Manila opened...and with all the crazy news happened during the opening... I was kinda LOL-ing 

Because this was the scene in Manila

This photo from Inquirer
 And this was the scene in a newly opened UNIQLO store near to my friend's place in Kuala Lumpur, almost empty



Checked-out the fountain show in front/back of the Petronas Tower

Walking and shopping abroad are my exercise... and PRIMADONNAs are my enemy during my shopping mode.

Malaysian fans of H&M are lucky because the flagship store in Kuala Lumpur will open this September (wish they'll open a store in Manila noh)



We ended the night in PappaRich, it's one of Malaysia's fast food restaurant.


Laksa


The next day my friend brought me to Batu Cave (after going there... I hate the place)

* make sure if you're going there, not to bring a plastic bag and do NOT give food to monkeys...  you'll be traumatize






Before I went to the airport, dropped by in IKEA for lunch









Make sure to a lot four hours before your departure time and do the web check-in because KL airport is very far from the city.

Used the KL Express to LCCT airport


And my BFF while in the plane to Manila

AUGUST MAN and Noah Mills was on the cover, I ♥ this magazine





Arrived Manila safe and still gorgeous.. LOL

Singapore and Malaysia .. wish Truly Great Trip!

Singapore/Malaysia trip is 6 months away from now and I'm excited..

Why? Five reasons:

Wee Nam Kee's Hainanese Chicken Rice -- although Manila already have the Wee Nam Kee, but still original is the best and a must if you'll visit Singapore.. don't you think?

Universal Studios -- I enjoyed Disneyland in Hong Kong, wish I'll enjoy USS (Universal Studios Singapore) more or equal.. Fingers crossed!

College/High School/ Former Colleagues -- Some of my college, high school, and former colleagues are currently working in Singapore and Malaysia. I super miss them and spending moments with them is priceless.

Cute Guys -- well I was overwhelmed in Hong Kong because there were lots of cute guys roaming around in Hong Kong, so I'm looking forward in Singapore and Malaysia, although some friends warned me.

Shopping!! -- A trip in Singapore and Malaysia is not complete and success if MOI! will not do my favorite activity...SHOPPING!

2011? Great Year Ahead... XoXo Starbucks Planner

I am starting now my hiatus over Frappucino until April, I deserve this because I collected 5 Starbucks planner and drunk 50 frappucino and 35 hot lattes within two months. I donated 4 planners to my friends (wish they love it!). But when a friend of mine (who's in Malaysia now) got my attention over their planner, I immediately made agreement to exchange planner (mine from Philippines, then his from Malaysia). Last weekend, I received it through the generosity of a friend's friend I met.

Starbucks Malaysia 2011 Planner...
Gorgeous di ba? Wish Starbucks Philippines still have this charm! 

Special thanks to Jason!
