Some huge lion woke me up in my dream. I was chased by a lion and i was protecting my sister and we were stuck in the room, trying to tahan the door, dreamt. This morning was very cold.
But it’s a very great day..
Sunny..
Went out to watch Final Destination but wasn’t in time to watch the 3D version. It was cliché and looks a lil fake, probably coz it’s meant for 3D.
By the way, i created a TUMBLR just for fun..
Fiona’s supposed to help me to dye my hair but she had a nail emergency, gotta save it. So i did it myself before she got back. It was fun! But i guess i didn’t let it set long enough.. Here’s how it looks like.
So no difference right?
Fiona, Wankit and his mummy and i went out to Best Buy to get a GPS.
What a nice day today.. Wondering when is Fall coming..
Then we went to Thomas’s for some ice-cream. They have a weird mirror in the shop. :D Made us all look fat and short.
My first time to salon and dye my hair, was 2 days before i left Malaysia. And the color was unnoticeable and the hair stylist was trying to hit on my boyfriend, he’s a gay. Arggh! And i spent like RM200+. WTH!
I have plans now for my hair, since the color is barely there. I wanna dye it. Wankit’s aunt gave me a box of highlighter and i just bought some dye hair kit from the convenient store. Immagonna dye my hair.
I don’t know how is it gonna turn out. But i’ll take a picture for you all k?

Got 2 days off from work. So Wankit and i headed to the city in the morning on a train. Felt so excited. I don’t know why but i love the feeling of being a tourist.
First destination : Elis Island/Statue of Liberty Ground Zero
Trying to figure out how to use Subway is interesting and confusing. But somehow from Penn Station, we ended up in World Trade Center.
Looking for Ground Zero
Some artsy stuff in the middle of the city
Found it! But didn’t wanna pay to get in. Don’t wanna waste money. I’ve seen the tribute online.
Bad photography by some random tourist.
The recovery
The first destination made me realized that lots of Italians and Swedish comes to NYC for holiday.
2nd Destination : Elis Island/Statue of Liberty
Finally, we figured how to use Subway. We traveled Downtown to South Ferry to hop on a ferry to Elis Island and see that girl. Unfortunately…
The q was too long and i don’t like wasting time. So we took the more expensive one and doesn’t let you get down to Elis Island. Why not? Haha..
Brooklyn Bridge
3rd Destination : Canal St
In the search for Malaysian food, we went to Canal St. We were looking for this Restaurant called Nyonya at Grand St. But couldn’t find it, until we’re gonna die of hunger, we found another Malaysian restaurant.
Canal St is actually Chinatown, like Petaling St in KL. The whole street sells fake bags and perfumes.. Exactly like Petaling St.
This is one of the coolest thing in Chinatown.
And i found something for Christine!
4th Destination : Best Western Presidential Hotel
Quite nice the room deco but the lobby is under renovation. :[ Abit potong steam. No wonder so cheap, $149 per night. But it’s in a very good location. Just 1 block away from Time Square.
5th Destination : Time Square
We saw this!
And Hershey's
Madame Tussauds
Wankit cheating on me!!! With J.Lo.
Time Square during the day..
Broadway has Bling bling McD too!
Then we went to search for Ramen at 4th Avenue.
Delicious ramen i must say.. We have to wait for 30 minutes to get a seat. Drank some Sake while waiting for seat. The atmosphere and deco inside is so nice.. Busy too.
Sorry, forgotten to take picture of the ramen before we start dig in.
I was conned by this restaurant. We ordered some Fish Cake Appetizer that cost $8 and it’s this portion!
Taste quite nice tho.
Then we headed back to the hotel to have a lil rest before going back to Time Square to chill and have supper.
In the middle of Time Square, there are chairs and tables around for you to sit and chill. Haha.. And Starbucks is everywhere, every corner of the street.
Even have stairs for people to sit.
We had supper at TGIF.
Day 2
We headed to Canal St to look for Nyonya again, and we found it!!
Then we went to Wall St
Cemetery in the middle of the city
Grand Central next. Awesome food court!
and it’s huge..
Owh! and Empire States is even larger. But didn’t went up coz it’s expensive and you’ll see blocks below only.
Then we headed to Rockefeller Center and 5th Avenue.
Then we stopped by at St.Patrick’s cathedral. It’s so magnificent and peaceful.
But my camera battery died coz i forgotten to bring the charger.
Then we went to Columbus Circle.
And i saw something like home!
Time Warner Center! Like Pavilion.
and also this..
Exactly like home huh?
Then we hung out and chilled at Central Park.. There are people playing Jazz music in the park. so nice…
Visiting the city made me feel like a JB-ian visiting Singapore..
I kinda like New York. It’s an amazing place, such a small place, with so many population, compact and underground compact too.. And i am having sore throat too. Hope it’s not Swine Flu/Cough.
