My Last Day In Miri

Today is my last day in Miri after received short notice instruction on my transfer.

I would like to thank to my team especially Michele (my right arm) for the support, belief and commitment that was shown during my tenure in Miri. I also go home knowing that without my dedicated team, very little of this would be possible. So thank you for the faith and trust...

Thank you my team. Thank you Miri for having me...

Burger Lah & Bringin Cafe










Last night Gang Gagak Putih (Jay, Michele and myself) explored a new restaurant called Burger Lah at Centre Point, Miri. Since I never had a chance to try the famous burger bakar in KL, Burger Lah has somehow mend my craving for the patty burger.

The best part of this restaurant they provide a "burger challenge" ala Man Vs Food programme, whereby if you managed to finish it within 30 minutes, you don't have to pay for it. If you didn't finish the burger within the time given then you are required to pay MYR60. Anyone can take the challenge at any time.

The challenge plate consist of 4 burgers (2 beef & 2 chicken) and 1kg of french fries. If you successfully finish within time given, your photo will be up on their Wall of Shame (it is not a typo error, they really did called it as Wall of Shame).

Three of us had a great time and laughed. The food was great! It's up to the standard. Our bills only MYR45.30! Cheap kan..

Now we have 2 new place to eat, first Burger Lah, second is Bringin Cafe - served plenty of Nogori and Semenanjung food! Very delicious! We ate there during lunch time. By the way the owner is from Negeri Sembilan and his wife is local. They just open the cafe last year. I took ikan patin masak tempoyak, vege (nasi, of coz!) and ordered ice tea. Guess how much it cost me? MYR6! Now I am looking forward for our next lunch.

Sick

Very sick this morning and I thought I might have appendicitis. I am so grateful that my staff, Michele offered to send me to the clinic. Most of clinics in Miri are close today so we have to travel quite a distant to see the doctor.

This clinic is full of people (good sign that the doctor is good) but they make me waited for 2 and half hours!

Everything is good now. There is no appendicitis. Thank god!

Marina Bay Lighthouse

My first lighthouse visit! Guess what? It's near with my home stay! Adoi! Never knew such a lovely place just near by the area. *shame*

This beautiful building used to be a restaurant. 


I have to take off my heels because it's a long way to the lighthouse (for me!)

Meritz Hotel

Went to Meritz Hotel Miri this evening with my other 2 stooges. Michele used to worked for this hotel before.  Meritz hotel is the latest four star business class hotel situated at the heart of Miri city. 

The hotel is still under soft opening and estimated to have their grand this coming December.

Special thanks to their team for the excellent service. That is what we called hospitality. Warm and great ambiance. 

M Signature (Revolving Restaurant & Bar). 4th revolving restaurant in Malaysia.


Meritz very own fine dining concept.



Sky Garden (Outdoor Dining).


Don't be surprise that her actual name is Love.

High Fever



Down with high fever this morning + gastric. My body aching and I felt so cold (Miri with the typical humid weather so feeling cold in the morning is not a good sign + I wore the cardigan as second clothes.

I force myself to wake up and get ready to work as the chances for me to collapse alone at my room is very high.

 I was given a pay cheque for my team salaries and need to cash it for them + get some medicine for myself.

For those who are close to me they know that I hate to go out in the afternoon. Can't stand the hot sun. I get migraine easily but yesterday this hot sun helped me a lot! I feel better! No more fever (only body ache and tired).

Republic Beach, Miri.



Last night Michele and hubby brought us to this cool place called Republic Beach. I believe this is one of the happening place in Miri for family outing. This place have a complete facilities such as gym, rest rooms, public swimming pool (medium size, they charge MYR3 per head) with jacuzzi, cafe, bbq (at night , MYR15 per plate - chicken wing, satay, lamb),  basketball court (with lights for those who prefer to play in the evenings), badminton courts,  and a large beach front with shower facilities.

I seriously love this place so much! Oh ya, the floor at table setting area also made by wood. Nice touch! 

Jay (my staff from Sabah) planning to explore new place with similar concept, near with our hotel. Will upload the picture if we going there this evening.

The Famous Natural Supplement

Just started my new natural supplement 2 weeks back and the result is awesome! My skin looks radiant, glowing and most important, flawless!



What is it?

It's a 100% pure marine collegen. This collegen helps rejuvenates and regenerates my tired body. It also smoothes, firm and tones my skin. I can't help to notice that it also visibly reduce my scar (haippp, don't be so kay po chee).



It has been widely used in Japan for many years as a natural supplement. People who use marine collagen claim it has various benefits, which include healthier bones and skin. I did my research and so pleased to know that there were so many benefits you can get from this. One of it, it can help reverse the effects of aging! This can also be beneficial for people who suffer from osteoporosis. If taken over a period of time, the absorption of calcium can be greatly increased.

The best part of this new supplement of mine, it's 100% pure, safe, HALAL and CHEAP! Market range per 100gram is around MYR30 to 40! That amount can last you for a month, Babe! I consume a Grade Triple A, violet (the BEST).

Well, since it is cheap, you must cook it by yourself. Some people do sell the cook version but you have to pay MYR10 or more from the actual price. I prefer to cook mine because I use mineral water.

Don't worry I will share the steps. I just help my stafff cooked last night.

First you need 1 packet of rock sugar if you want it to have a sweet taste. You can take this 3 times a day (each take 2 table spoons). You can also cook without the rock sugar. You may add this with any drinks, juices or cordial (Sunquick, Ribena), EXCEPT caffeine! Caffeine will absorb all the good protein that you get from the collegen (something like that lah, you read and do your own research too ok).



Second, you need the pure marine collegen, DUHHH! 
You have to wash this marine collegen like you wash the rice, soak 1 whole night, rinse and wash again. THEN, you can start  to cook. Don't throw the water! You can wash your face and body with that. Leave it dry. You will be amaze with the result, trust me.

Third, for 100gram collegen, you must have 2.5 to 3 litre water. As mentioned, I only use mineral water, Evian.

Fourth, get a big POT!

Then start la cooking. Don't you ever leave your POT! You must stir the collegen (ala macam masak agar2) all the time. Oh ya, if you want to have the sweet taste, then add the rock sugar (it will taste like buah kabung). I preferred the sweet version as I have sweet tooth.



After 20 minutes, once the rock sugar melting, your natural supplement also siap. It will look like this.


Wait until it's cool. Then place it in container and place it in your fridge.

Halloween, Miri Style.

Honestly speaking, I don't celebrate Halloween but when I received email from my VP that I need to decorate the office with Halloween theme, immediately I do my research with Mr Google.

This is the result...






Ha, this is my daily board. We have 10 more weeks to go before we wrap up this programme.


Simple decoration with limited sources, but I spend half of my day for this.

Sleepless Night...

Lately (especially two days back) I'm getting less sleep. So many things going on in the office that need my full attention.

So this is how my eyes look like....


Panda eyes...

Thunder, thunder, tunder cat! Hoooooooooo!!



Get it? No? Never mind lah!

Last night my sleep was disturbed by a very loud sound (like something big and heavy fall from the building, a crane perhaps). Since there is a project going on near the hotel (facing right in front of my room), it's perfectly  make sense that it could be an accident. So I just wait for the movement but there is none.

Hmm... What was that? My sleepy head tried to solved the puzzle at 3.34am!

Apparently after few minutes, then it hit me! It's a thunder. A very loud one.

Why you must have those thought in your head Hashella??? Stop being silly... Go back to sleep! You have few hours left before you need to wake up for work.
