Trip to Sihanoukville, Cambodia

I went to visit one of the province in Cambodia, Sihanoukville recently during the 3 days Public Holiday in Cambodia (King’s Birthday on the 13-15 May 2008). The main attraction of this place is beaches, snorkeling, diving, banana boat….

It took about 4 hours (by bus) from Phnom Penh City. I actually planned to go for snorkeling. Unfortunately, due to the raining season that spoil my whole plan.

Sihanoukville is just like Bali in Indonesia. It’s so commercialize as lots of foreigners will come to visit here. Beach Bungalow can be found along Spendility Beach (By foreigners) at reasonable price which is around USD15-60 per night. I plan to go there again in November to stay at the beach bungalow.

I like the concept of the restaurant here which is facing of the sea just like Bali. Most of the restaurant is opened by foreigners like French, Mexican, Australian, Japanese… The food is much better than the Western Food in KL. Price is reasonable around USD15 per person dining in a restaurant.

We also went to the local beach called Ochaeutal Beach. I don’t really like the concept there as the restaurant only serve local, Asian and some western food. Quality of the food is so bad and expensive compare to the foreign restaurant. Maybe we are foreigners…

The 3 days 2 nights trip is really pampered. I’ll definitely make a trip again in November.

HAPPY GAWAI :)

Happy Birthday to my Brother, ROBIN YONG!

1st June 1987, is a special day of my little brother who came in to our family!

He is very quiet in the family but very talkative to his friends. He loves Computer games. He is a bit hot tempered sometimes so better be away from him at that time. However, he has a warm heart to help any of his friends and family although he appears to be cool.

During this special festival, I would like to say “HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, MY DEAR BROTHER!’’

P/S : Present will be delivered to you in September!

Angkor Wat

The highest peak of Angkor Wat


Angkor Wat is located in Siem Reap, Cambodia which is 6 hours (by land) and 30 minutes (by air) away from Phnom Penh. I had been there for twice. You can never find this kind of unique scenery in other country. Tomb Raider is also using the Angkor Wat scene in the movie.

The entrance fee costs at USD25 per person per day. 3 Days pass costs at USD45 per person. It takes about one full day to visit the whole area. There are few temples (Wat) in Angkor Wat which consists of Bayon temple (With Buddhist face in the structure), Ta Promph Temple and Angkor Wat.

The unique of Ta Promph temple is trees grew on top of the temple. And Angkor Wat is the most famous and largest one among all. However, I would prefer Bayon Temple compare to Angkor Wat. You can see different faces of Buddha from different angle.

During leisure time, you can go for massage in Siem Reap or Phnom Penh. The charges is between USD5-20 per hour depends on the interior of the shop. I went for a 4 hours spa package recently in O Spa, Phnom Penh to pamper myself. The price is only at USD80 which includes of facial, Aromatheraphy massage, full body scrub, full body mask, Jacuzzi, Floral bath and snacks and tea.

Feel free to message me if anyone of you are interested to visit this place!

Chinese New Year 2008

I will be celebrating Chinese New Year with my family every year in KL since 2003. I really don’t like to spend this special festival in KL, a lonely city! How good it is if it is in Miri. No visiting, no drinking, no meeting up with old friends…

This year we are in KL as well! We had our reunion dinner with almost all my cousins from my mum’s side. Most of them came from Australia, Sabah and KL. My mum was originally borned in Ipoh but all my mum’s siblings had migrate to different places like Canada, Australia, Sabah, KL and my mum to Miri. So every year this date will be good for reunion for all my cousins from my mum’s side.

Last year we spent a few days in Ipoh! It was so bored as well as I do not have any friends there. Manage to visit some of our cousins which is not so close at all. We also went to visit our grandfather at “Sam Poh Tong”.

Many of them fall sick during this CNY, Lilian, My auntie, my brother and my dad. Not so enjoyed and everyday just went for shopping, eating, shopping, eating…

Hopefully next year will be a different year!



















My Sister Lisa!

They said i look like bride with this dress on. So so so embarrased on that day!

I promise to all of you that I’ll update everything happened in this few months. Yes, I do!

Before I started my new career and I was so bored of Cambodia, I decided to go back to Malaysia for a 2 months holiday from December – February! The trip was so enjoyed and I managed to meet up with all my friends in my hometown.

Spending everyday to do things that I like such as facial, shopping, sleeping, hanging out with friends… Like a “Tai Tai”life without any stress. No financial stress, no work stress… Everyday is FUN FUN FUN!

But now, I’m back to normal life L Work Work Work! Work is good for personal improvement and financially independent. But I can feel the different of me compare to last time in terms of commitment towards my work.

I still miss the time when I was in my hometown Miri for a month in January! I got a long period to stay at home spending time with my parents, sisters, brother (not so as he seldom stayed at home and seldom talk to all the sisters) and my best friends, ex-colleagues. It was so so fun! I will definitely plan for another long holiday to go back to Miri again!

Every weekends I would be going out with my girlfriends, for a tea, to Island Bar, Balcony or Karaoke. It was so fun! No gentlemen and it was only all Girls! I’m now counting my days to go back to Miri in September. Still another 3 more months to go….

P/S : Forgot to take pictures with my dear Dachele everytime I go back! This trip will remember.

After this blog had been abandoned for so long….

Conducting Grooming Class in March 2008

Ready to go to work!

After didn’t blog for so long, since November 2007 till now, for a total of 7 months… Apologize to all of you for not updating for that LONG! After reading my 2 cousin's blog, Nadia and Nora which makes me want to blog again. Thanks to both of you :)

Well, recently I just started my new job in Cambodia since March as a Guest Relations Manager in a Malaysian owned 5 stars Casino Hotel here. Work is not as busy and challenging as in KL. Perks is better than KL but things here are so expensive which everything have to be spent in USD.

The people here are not so concern of the personal grooming as much as like in Malaysia or Singapore. That’s the reason why I have to conduct a grooming class for all my female staffs. To teach them of the body posture, walking posture, basic make up techniques. It was so fun as my ambition is actually to become a make-up artiste and not a Hotel General Manager.

Hehe…. Anyway, that was my ambition during those teenagers time but my parents do not really want me to end up to become a beautician or make up artiste.

But, I still manage to take a short make up course few years ago to fulfill my dreams.

Those are some photos taken during the grooming class that I had conducted. Have a look and enjoy! If any of you who want to know some techniques, feel free to message me!
