Lukut Road Trip

I made an accidental Lukut trip yesterday. And came home with FOOD !

There’s 6 of em plastic bags filled with Lukut specialty.

Curry chicken bread !

And it came from Lucky Seafood Restaurant which was situated along the main road of Lukut.

It cost RM25 for one giant bun. Best eaten when it’s fresh.

Mum bought 6 of them as a gift to our family friends.

Yesterday was an interesting day. Drove to so many places. My dad started out with sending Hui Hwen off from KLIA. Woke up around 5.30am and left the house around 6.30am. I was very glad that I made it to KLIA on time and without getting lost. Pei Fern and I even manage to have a farewell breakfast with Hui Hwen at the airport.

Then from KLIA , I went to seremban. Then to Port Dickson. Explored port Dickson a bit. Went to port Dickson hospital , Klinik kesihatan ( which was at the other end of port dickson ) and the Jabatan Kesihatan Daerah. Finally, the next stop was to head back home from the Jabatan. Actually, by then , I didn’t know where I was in PD. The exit where I entered into PD was quite far away. So I decided to just follow any Seremban road signs back to Seremban.

And yes, it brought me to Lukut. I remembered being in Lukut once during Surgery posting. It was he very first time we drove to PD and we took the wrong exit. our 30 minutes journey to PD turned into an hour journey. And I was back in Lukut again yesterday. =_=

Then I recalled mum saying that Lukut was famous for the chicken curry bomb(as I call it). So, I stop by a random coffee shop to have lunch.

Herbal Pork Noodles

And I asked the shopkeeper there for directions to the chicken curry bomb shop. Very easy. Actually. Lukut ‘s just like Tampin. Everything’s along the main road.

That’s how I ended up in Lukut. Reached home exhausted from listening to the radio. But , I was very happy my day was filled up that way.

Anyone wants to go for road trips around Malaysia? I can be your driver If you don’t mind sitting in a MyVi

First Camera

I want a camera !

Lucky me , Papa Chua and Mama Chua  is going to grant me that wish . That’s not the only thing they are granting me . A camera is one of the wishes being granted .  Heee Heee .  I feel so blessed . (Thank you thank you thank you) x 947865837947.

I’ve been thinking , reading lots of reviews , viewing review videos and staring at the promotion page .

Its between Canon IXUS 210 or PowerShot SX210 IS or PowerShot S95 or PowerShot S90 … aargh , i feel like having each of them especially CanonPowerShot S95.

I’m not much of a photography junkie .  But , i know a thing or 2 , not 3 though =(    and have an interest in photography . And this dire thirst to snap photos has been bugging me since ………. form 5 ,  which was 5 years ago .

I’m finally getting MY OWN camera . WEE ! I repeat once again MY … OWN … CAMERA ! ^o^

Because it is my first . I really thought it over and over and over .

Finally decided that it has to be Canon IXUS 210 .

Not CanonPowerShot S95 .

That’s so saddening . I  really really REALLY feel like having S95 .

But .

S95 is more than my budget . Adui . Sobs .

There is a  Canon Christmas Promotion and these 2 babies are among the some that have discounts .Christmas rules!

You can say that S95 is  my dream camera . Not bulky , not as expensive as a DSLR , has all the features of an amateur-beginner photography enthusiast like me , handy , highly recomended by experts , so many features to play with , the list just goes on …

Whereas IXUS 210 , well if compared to the above … its rubbish . Its RM400  cheaper than S95 . and its the best within the budget . I don’t feel good spending more than what my parents give , after all , they’d promised me some other STUFF ^^  . Besides that , the image quality is quite good , has features like anti-shake , miniature effect , 5x zoom , sleek built , thinner than S95 , less of manual controls . One thing i don’t like about it is that its fully touch screen .

Still contemplating whether its a good idea to get it . Touch screen can be very troublesome .

Chose this also because … you know . Since i’m still such a noob at photography, why am i getting one thats more advanced ? I could improve myself to a certain level with the compact . And when I’ve really understood the camera features better , i move on to the semi-pro . Plus , I don’t need such good photos at such a noob level .

Look nice , no ?

Will Probably take the black one .

Because it  reminds me of this .

Memo to self :  Shi yi , Time will come when you earn it yourself .

And love it even more .
