♥~Cecilly's 21st Birthday Adventure Part 2~♥


Hello..i'm here to continue telling Cecilly's birthday adventure part 2...

18th September 2014, Thursday

It was such a productive day, much more happening than my exact birthday,haha... :$

Fluffy & i made a visit to Publika as i've been seeing people checked in & heard that there's many nice food to be explored...

It was our 1st visit to Publika & we chose to have our late brunch at Namoo Korean Dessert Cafe...



Ordered a beef rice burger myself & Fluffy had a sweet chili omuto, fried rice wrapped in egg omelette...Overall was still ok...

Then we went to Coffee Stain by Joseph to get some drinks...I'm not a coffee lover myself as i prefer sweet drink, the decision of going there was purely for their 3D coffee artwork,haha... :$



Cute 3D Melody on ice chocolate...




Haha..now you know the angle i've been using for my selfie... :$

Continued our food exploration to Dip & Dip in Bangsar...Had a triple chocolate crepe & we added on a bowl of marshmallow...



The crepe was very thin & the texture of chocolate was rich it totally satisfied our taste buds...The combination of marshmallow & chocolate was heavenly nice too...Yummy!!! Am so gonna go back for second visit...

Was gonna go for more food hunting but received a text from Sherryn asking if i wanna meet up with her...Ditched all our original plans & went back to Pavilion to catch a movie with her... :D

Fluffy & i had been wanting to watch The Maze Runner but we never got to do it...Its either tickets were sold out or the showtimes were too late... :$

Finally we managed to buy the tickets after rushing back to Pavilion from Bangsar...Walked away from GSC & there's a girl walking towards my direction...I didn't really pay much attention to her & was ready to go for the elevator...

Just when we were about to pass by each other, that girl said :" You still can't see me arh?" Then i only realized it wasn't just some random girl, it was Sherryn!!!! Fluffy gave me an unbelievable look & :" She's just right in front of you, i thought you already saw her...."

Haha...sorry i didn't notice...She is getting slimmer but she just won't stop complaining about being fat... :$

Went for Oh My Gas while waiting for the movie...Sherryn & me shared a Mint chocolate ice-cream & when i spooned in a mouthful of ice-cream, i was like :" No gas one? Why the ice cream no gas one?"

"Its made with gas, not inside of it got gas..."    "Huh...is that so?"   "Yes..."

I've been having a misunderstanding that OMG ice cream has gas in it like soft drinks...By the way, the ice cream was delicious and smooth, very smooth... :$

The story line and concept of The Maze Runner was good but The Hunger Game was nicer, however, Twilight is the best....Haha...Bias me... :$

Sent Sherryn back & found out her place was so near to Fluffy's...So convenient to meet up with her next time... :o

Rested a bit at home then headed out for dinner with Theng jiejie at a nearby cafe....

Thengjiejie asked him not to pamper me too much and don't spoil me in a joking way... Then i was like :" Since when did you spoil me, you only know to make me angry and bully me..."

"Since when didn't i pamper and spoil you...You tell 1 thing that you want but i never let you and see, just 1 would be enough..."

"Ok!!! There's tons..."   "Bring it on..."         "So much confidence?"         "Sure...."

several minutes has passed.... Silence*

"See...Told you..."

I tried very hard to name 1 thing that i wanted but failed to get from him but no success...It suddenly struck me that he has been getting everything that i ever wanted to get for me & fulfilled every wishes of mine...

To be frank i was a little touched by the thought of it, it never occurred to me like that before...Its so easy to realize when someone didn't behave as you wish yet its so hard to see when they gave you their best & did everything they could just to see that smile on your face...

Next stop: One City Sky Park...It was drizzling but it didn't stop people from visiting....




Tada...We got a little worried and scared in the first place as 10 floors of height ain't no kidding.... :$

Took us few minutes to get used to it & it was awesome standing on the glass where you could see through everything, all the way down to ground floor...

There's quite a number of roof top restaurants with this massive view of the city...They were all closed on that day though...





Strolled along the balcony & enjoyed the night view with fluffy...The cold air enhanced the romantic atmosphere even more..It was so relaxing & comfortable...If only time can be frozen in that moment...

Last stop for the night : Fluffy's daddy's restaurant for supper...Received another angpao from uncle & i was super embarrassing...It was more than i should deserve but still genuinely thanks to uncle Lee...

Shed a little tears when fluffy put me to sleep as separation was getting closer and closer each passing seconds...Just didn't feel like moving away from his embrace, not even an inch...


19th September, Friday

Headed to Malacca with fluffy, Ethan, Kenneth (fluffy's friend who came from Malacca) & AhDi...

It was my first visit to Malacca, even AhDi already went there for twice...It was approximately 2 hours of driving from KL, i thought it was nearer than that...

Had this pork ribs noodle recommended by Kenneth...It wasn't full at all but i was saving my stomach some spaces for more coming yummy food.. :D



Dutch Square...Malacca is known as an ancient historic city with a rich and varied heritage...Its such a right place for me as i always have a thing for historical architecture, especially Europe building...It always gives me a sense of mystery & admiration... How people in old time could come up with such magnificent construction & how their buildings were so strong they resisted deterioration & still could be preserved until now...







St. Paul's Church...There's some engraved tombstones in the ruins of the church...I believed its belonged to Dutch nobility that were buried underground...Its so breathtaking and beautiful...Could literally spend whole day reading its history... :$

Too bad we couldn't stay too long as we still had many places to go & time was passing too fast...

Walked to Plaza Mahkota for the very famous Nadeje mille crepe...Finally!!!! Finally i got to taste this cake which people have been dying for!!!!!







We had 6 slices of cakes to share among all...

Oh my god...It is so delicious!!!! Its so soft & smooth!!!!!!! It melts the instant you put it in your mouth, oh my god i don't even know how to describe...Secret Recipe just beware of your position right now, you may not be placed at the top in my favorite cake list anymore,haha... :$

Right then, we visited the jonker night market where you could find a great number of delicious local food...








Kenneth brought us to this small restaurant called Jonker 88 which its most popularly known for it laksa and durian cendol...











I'm not a huge fans of laksa but their laksa really impressed me, completely blew me away...It was the nicest laksa i've ever eaten...I asked fluffy & AhDi, they both agreed with me too...Oh my god, how come the food in Malacca all so nice one!!! Oh my god this laksa utterly sent my taste buds to heaven...OH MY GOD!!!

& I don't know what flavor was the laksa, nyonya or papa, or there's no flavor to choose at all, because Kenneth ordered it for us... :$

Am so gonna go back for it!!! Oh my god i couldn't stop talking about how delicious it was, got so carried away by the laksa...Ok, compose yourself Chai Yee Voon, take a deep breath & move on from the laksa...But...but its extremely mouth-watering & irresistible, ok..ok...Now stop... *Pouting*

Ok...Basically all the attractions are quite close to each other they're reachable within walking distance...The following pictures were all the attractions we've been to after leaving jonker street...










This was taken when we had a ride on the revolving tower which gives you a 360 degree of panoramic view of the city...It costs RM15 per person & only RM10 for those who pay by touch & go...

We didn't get to go for the river cruise, strolling along the riverside was equally pretty romantic though... :$

Also, we haven't had the chance to try their famous satay celup because of the crazily long queue...It was already 9pm at night & we couldn't afford to wait, went to Portuguese Settlement for seafood instead, which reminds me of this super funny experience of ours... :$

Once fluffy turned off the car engine, there's quite a number of people coming towards us...Starting we thought they were to collect parking tips from us & the amount of them hesitated us from getting out of the car...

"Come...We have the best seafood ever..." "Number 1, choose stall 1 & i'll bring you to the table..." "Number 8 number 8, choose number 8..." "Tell a number & we'll stop hovering already..." "Come larr...Number 5, we have every seafood you want..."

Haha, they weren't there to collect parking tips but to promote their own stalls...Such a huge competition huh... :$

We were all stunned & left the decision up to Kenneth,haha...He chose 1 in the end & it was quite a wrong choice,haha... :$

Their portuguese baked fish was tasteless, you could find better portuguese baked fish in Gold Crsytal Restaurant in Kampar,haha...True... :$

However, the "lala" they had from the other stall was really fresh & yummy we had total 3 plates of "lala"...

Fluffy & i then went over to the sea terrace for some moment alone together... We saw people were putting sky lanterns & i got so excited over it because i've never tried putting one myself...





Tada...He's always my personal santa claus who crossed off wishes from my bucket list one by one...

Bytheway, we watched our lantern fell off to the dark wide ocean... :$

Made our way home at around 10 something pm...Everyone was tired & sleepy, yet fluffy had to make sure he's alert enough to drive us all home safely...I tried very hard not to fall asleep so at least i could watch the road with him...Mission failed as expected... :$

That very moment made me realized even though he never tell me "i love you" & "i miss you" as much as he used to which makes me think that his intensity of love for me has weakened, the things that he's been doing for me proved otherwise... 

Actions speak louder than words..People may not always tell how they feel about you, but they will always show you...Love isn't about how many times you say "i love you" but how much you can prove that it's true...This was something that i was inspired in the heat of the moment...

Right now when we are almost 200km apart from each other, i already continue thinking that he doesn't love me or care me like before,haha... :$ 

Here comes to the end of Cecilly's birthday adventure...Thanks for reading... :)

Oh yup..Do visit Princesscilia, my newly open online shop... <3

What touched me the most was that people have been sharing my page to their walls voluntarily, i didn't even ask anyone to help, i really didn't...I'm so lucky to have so many good friends & family... Am filled with so much gratitude...Thank you guys... :)

♥~Cecilly's 21st Birthday Adventure Part 1~♥


Ohh...I'm so lazy to blog.... :$

Ok...So i ended my exam on 15th of September & had lunch with neneh and hippuh...We talked a lot & shared two small pieces of Secret Recipe together...Gave each other a goodbye hug before we left, it felt good.. :)

Had a little pre-birthday celebration with my friends in secondary school, the ones who know me most well, who witnessed every embarrassing moments of mine while i grow up, who went through that foolish yet memorable teenage phase with me,haha...We had so much fun and i laughed so so so hard throughout the whole night...

Lets the picture do the talking because i'm lazy,hahaha....



Tada...my birthday cake with candles but no lighter... :$

Look at how happy AhJing, the guy in pink was,haha...Everyone was tickling him, he laughed so hard until eyes also couldn't open, haha...





My darlings and me...They look like each other so much, i was like a total different face,haha... We were supposed to wear our sister t-shirts together but i couldn't find it... :$

Went through all the clothes yet it just wasn't there...so i called Winqi & asked her to change,haha..Liching was like :" I don't care i'm just gonna wear it to punish Cecilia Chai Yee Voon for being blur blur the whole time..."haha... 



Ok...Let me explain the story behind this picture for you... :$

So Winqi bought a durian cake & everybody got :" Owww..." after they tried..."Its like eating a real durian..." "Is it a cake or is it a durian itself?"

Dennis doesn't eat durian but we insisted he had to try...Then he was like :" I'll try if YeeVoon did..." 

This face was when i holding that little piece of durian cake with a small nibble of it in my mouth & pointing to Dennis :" You come back to your seat right now & finish this ! " haha...


Hello.... :)

16th of September 2014, Tuesday

Reached KL at 10 something in the morning...Fluffy & i had a deal that we were gonna make my birthday eve a shopping day... :$

For your information, i found my sister t-shirt when i was packing for Kl that morning -_-

We shopped at Times Square, H&M, Pavilion then Sungei Wang... Bought myself a H&M sweater & two floral pieces from Forever 21...Our legs were so sore once we sat down we were like :"Awww..." & didn't ever wanna move anymore, haha...

We dined at this french restaurant called La Vie En Rose...Saw quite a lot of good comments on internet so we decided to go give it a try...

The ambiance was fairly good..I like their open garden setting, it was so relaxing....




Enjoyed the view of both KL tower & Petronas Twins tower, watched the sun went down & the sky slowly turned from blue to a brilliant red then to a deep navy....




I forgot what's the name for every dishes i'll just approximately name them... :$

Escargot served with olive oil.... Tasted fresh...


 Duck leg confit...


Braised beef cheek...

"It tastes more like pork..."

"That's what i'm gonna say...like those my nanny used to cook for me..." Then we both burst out laughing because we shared the same thought, haha...

I had a pretty high expectation regarding to all the reviews but the food was really disappointing...What we ordered were all their recommended dishes but still nothing impressive...

Good customer service though, fluffy didn't agree with that as he said they only served me,haha...Now that i think of, its true.. From the beginning till the end, the waiters went to him only when the bill came,haha...I laughed quite a long time for that... :$



Spent the night at home watching 爸爸去哪儿 instead of going out to countdown my 21st birthday...After a long day, all i wanted was cuddling next to him on a comfy sofa with our feet up & watching our favorite show together... Everything was so right & good... A quiet and peaceful stay-in night with him was all i longed for... :)


Haha..sorry for scaring you but i like this picture... :$

He wished me happy birthday with an almost inaudible voice when the clock struck 12 because his mom and Ethan were both in the living room with us,haha...Gave him a truthful smile & mouthed thank you... That's it, everything was perfect...

Fluffy then brought me out for supper & we went home, there's 2 floating balloons welcomed me at the door step but i didn't notice & just went straight pass them then sat on the sofa,haha...

Until Ethan & Fluffy both made those sound of " Wow.....wah...." like they were flattering little kid, i only turned my head around and spotted the very 2 cute balloons,haha...Surprise failed... :$

Still, i was very pleased especially the way they presented the little surprise for me,haha... :$

"I was gonna go for the gold balloons with number "2" and "1" but those were out of stock...I ended up buying the most childish one..." Haha, he knew me well enough to get me princess balloons because i liked them more than anything... 

"I prefer princess balloon than the one with number 21... Perhaps you can get me balloons with Edward's face on it next time..." 



He also bought me small pieces of thousand layer cakes with no candles... -_-

"That day my friends celebrated with me, they had candles but no lighter, now you have lighter but no candles..I haven't even had the chance to blow any candles or make any wishes..." Haha...This is so amusing... :$

17th September 2014, Wednesday

Woke up at 7 something in the morning when everyone was still asleep...Scrolled instagram for awhile, charged my phone & went back to sleep...When i was ready to close my eyes,  turned my body to the left and saw a Pandora gift bag just inches beside of my face...



Awwww.....he bought me my desired Pandora...He must have put it there after i fell asleep the night before... Sweetness filled the air, the best morning ever... :$



Presents from fluffy....Love them beyond words can describe... :)

Had brunch with fluffy's mommy & his nanny at my favorite place of all, Levain...


By the time we got there, its already 11am, didn't get to eat my favorite blueberry danish...Both his mom & nanny gave me angpao & it really caught me out of surprise..Its something that i never expect & i'm so happy and blessed...Thank you so so so so much... :)

Made our way to Farm In The City after satisfied our stomach...



"Oh my god...Your mom and nanny gave me angpao..I'm happier than received Pandora bracelet from you..." Haha, fluffy's face was a speechless... The bracelet was 17cm & it was too big for me...We went back to change for a 16cm one..Also he was looking for a charm but they didn't have most of the fairytales series, so its gonna have to wait until next time or next occasion to add a charm on it... :)

Was heading to Subang ABX warehouse to collect my parcel as i ordered a pair of sandals which i'm ready to sell on internet, i wanted to wear it to take some sample pictures...

Who knows the staff said it was already delivered to Ipoh at 6am that morning...I already told them to hold the parcel & i'll go collect one, why you still shipped it to Ipoh... :(

Time is wasted, petrol is wasted & i didn't get to take pretty sample pictures...Haha, its ok though, we were in a very good mood that nothing could spoil our day... :D

Reached Farm in The City at around 2pm & all the visitors we saw were basically parents with children... :$

"Who comes to farm in the city for dating one...This place is for kids one...Kid..." him pointing at me...

"Many animals to see one, i love seeing animal...I wanna ride pony..."

"We went Zoo Negara for Valentine & come Farm in the City for your birthday...Such a healthy relationship..."  Haha...couldn't stop laughing...




Really huge turtle... :o


Its like dinosaur... :o


passion fruits hanging on the tree...







Look at that bunny!!!!!!!!!!!!! CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!




Raccoon... :o


Remember i was wishing i could get a pony ride before? Now its all gone... :'(

"You're too heavy for pony, they can only support the weight of child, they'll be very tired if they carry you..." Ok then...no more pouting... :$



We watched a parrot show too & its the first time i ever heard a parrot imitating human's voice, awesome.. :o

As for dinner, we were heading to The Hills but found out it was closed...Drove all the way to Damansara Height for nothing...Just like this morning when we drove to Subang for an already delivered parcel... :$

Ended up we went back to KL to dine in The Ship...Haha, The Ship was the best place yet it was always our last choice.... :$


Realized i haven't blow any candle for my birthday, fluffy took out a lighter as a replacement...

Made 3 wishes & ended the night...

Thanks for everyone who wished me through wechat, whatsapp, message or fb...There's a few people i wanna thank them the most, the 1st one is PuiMun neneh as she wrote a whole article of 20 facts about me & they were all so true oh my god...Fluffy & i laughed through the whole post...And YKang because he sang me a birthday song,haha...Nice voice... GowYi too, called me and sang me birthday song with his friends...And my mom who allowed me to have my birthday celebrated in KL with fluffy & went through so much pain to give birth to me on this day... :$

More stories coming in the next blog post...Stay tuned... :)
