Hello Saigon

It's been a while since the last time I blog. I'm just too lazy I guess but maybe when I start blogging again, I can be a part of the OLD me. Oh I miss the old me so much. I just don't know how to get it back.

Enough of that.

View of Saigon from the plane. Look at the river. Beautiful.

I've been here and there this year. One of it is VietNam. When people asked, how's VietNam? What's nice there? How's the food there? What? Where? When? How? Why? and the 5WH just can't stop reaching my ears.

Hotel lobby

Our room

VietNam is very popular of their history, especially the VietNam war in 1959 - 1975 *correct me if I'm wrong* and how the won the war.

So mostly people will visit the Củ Chi tunnel. A tunnel that we built just to escape from the Americans and they even lived in there. Eventho they were villagers, I guess they're more creative than an engineer. The tunnel is complete with ventilations. I think they're cool!

The petite tunnel. I stuck in there 

Ok, that is one of the tourist attraction.

Most of the lady go to VietNam just to shop. I can say the price there is better than Bandung especially when you're looking for cotton material. It's like crazy when you go to Bến Thành Market. You just don't know what to choose because you feel like you want all of it and you'll end up buying more than you have budgeted. LoL.

Let's go to Bến Thành Market

Some of it

Just don't know which one to choose

Other than that, the readymade baju kurung is so cheap. You can get RM 55 a pair with full beading. Usually they sell back the baju kurung in Malaysia at a very high price. I once found the baju kurung same like mine cost about RM 300. Krazy!

The best dinner there was on a cruise along Saigon River. Live band and dancing ladies. It's so nice. The food also yummy.

Food #3

Okay I won't talk much coz it's almost 3 in the morning and I'm working tomorrow. I mean today. hehehe.

This is something I tried lately. GIANT Yankee Chicken Burger at New York Deli, OU.
Super nice, Super OH-SOME!


I ordered this for myself and I didn't expect to finish it. SO I forced my lovely ladies to have a quarter each but they bailed on me.
No loving you honey!

This burger costs me RM46 and I ended up bringing 3/4 of the burger home! oh oh!

Actually you can share this burger with 3 other friends. Don't be too greedy like me or else you you'll bring it home. hehe.


Go enjoy it people! It's YUMMEYH!

New Year


When new year comes, everyone is busy asking everyone about where they're going to celebrate new year. Ahaaa. Semua nak nampak coolkan cakap, Oh I ada party here and there. Bluerghhh.

This year I celebrated new year at Desaru. Not that I have some "cool" party or what, I went there for a short vacation with my dear family. It was our first time there.

At first I tot we need to cancel our plan cause on Friday, which one day before the vac, mom got lumbar spasm. We had to send her to SJMC in case she got something else like dislocated disc or whatever. But thank God it was only spasm. But still, she can't barely move. Pity her. So that night, noone pack their bag and thinking it was canceled.

The next morning, when everyone busy sleeping, mom went to everyone's room and kejutkan. She was so excited to go and yet everyone still sleeping. So rush packed and left the house.

So we made a pit stop at jeng jeng jeng... Johor Premium Outlet. Not so premium. LoL. It was my second time there btw. When I checked in there, a lot of friends texted asking if the things there is okay or not. Honestly, if you have ka-chinggg everything would be so much fun!

Have u realize that JPO logo is the same as Rumah Mode? the one in Bandung... I think the owner is the same since he's a hell of a rich. That is what I was thinking la. The fact is I don't know. Btw, I think Coach in JPO is quite expensive and it looks like fake. Idk. The leather feels like PVC. So if you want to buy, you better make sure it is original cause if it's fake, it won't worth your money. Other brands like La Senza, GAP, Pedro, Guess are selling at good price. You can shop there.

*We had to queue just to get in to Coach boutique*

I didn't shop much. I bought a handbag from Michael Kors. A simple one. weeheee :)
We stopped there for less than 2 hours, then we continued our journey to Desaru.
Desaru is at Bandar Penawar, which is a very small town. When we asked the bell boy if the town is easy to find food or not, he said "sekarang dah maju. Dah ada fast food". I was thinking of McD. What's in your mind? It turned out to be Marry Brown. hahahaha.

Desaru is a nice place to have a vacation. Far from hustle and bustle. When you go there, you can just rest. Free your mind from everything. But the beach, hmmmm. The current was quite strong and the red flag was there. Can't even mandi laut :(

*Super sweet. They're my everything*
*Dad and I <3*
*Lelet relaxing*
*Us. macam cover albumkan* LOL
*Pulai Desaru at night*
Lelet and I tried the SPA. The SPA there is just fine. I Prefer Arokaya more like seriously. I don't know if the lady was massaging or hurting me cause it really hurt. No relax at all. heh!

It was only one night vacation, the next day, we went home.

*on the way back*

We stopped by Malacca to have asam pedas. Yums!
