Continuing from the previous post on Philea Resort And Spa, we made our way to Nusantara for lunch. One can opt to dine al fresco, under the really, really hot sun of Malacca; or within the comfort of air conditioner. Nasi tomato. Fried fish fillet. ...

The highlight of each BRATs workshop is the field assignments, where the BRATs put their newly learned journalism skills to use and interview “real” people. Each field assignment is different from the previous workshops and generally a unique culture or event of that particular town or state. For Kota Bharu, Kelantan, the brats were ... 
Sometime mid March, I was in Kota Bharu, Kelantan for BRATs. If you still don’t know what BRATs is, BRATs (Bright Roving Annoying TeenS) is The Star’s young journalism program for students between 16 and 19 year old. Throughout the four day workshop, they would learn how to conduct interviews, write articles, produce sound slides, ... 
There’s a new cafe in town, particularly e@Curve and even before its opening, some people, especially those who are into Japanese stuffs, seemed to be pretty excited about it. The reason being? It’s the first maid cafe in KL and probably Malaysia, Tenshi Cafe. The maids (for the guys) and butlers (for the girls) ... 
I was given the Samsung Galaxy SL GT-I9003 for a week. Upon starting up, the 4″ super LCD screen was absolutely gorgeous and crisp. My current phone, the Nokia N97, totally pales in comparison; in terms of resolution, brightness and colours. Excuse the smudges. I forgot to wipe the screen before I ... 
Twitter has really affected the way I am blogging. These days, not only I don’t carry my camera gears with me everywhere I go, I use my phone to snap most of the pictures and tweet about it. That… is my blog post. While it is a good thing that I can push out ...

After watching World Invasion: Battle LA the other day, I knew I had to get my hands on the soundtracks. The fast paced, loud, serious and “constantly on the move” music fitted the movie really well, which is packed with loads of running, explosions and actions. There are also the spirit uplifting tracks ... 
St Patrick’s is just around the corner and apart from celebrating the joyous festival with beers, there’s always the good food to look forward to. Like previous years, pubs across the town are launching their very own St Patrick’s dishes and Irish restaurant and pub, Malones is one of them. Thanks to 
The Deli, situated at the far right end of MiCasa All Suite Hotel, has a very limited menu but has just the right comfort food to fill your tummy during brunch, tea or even a light lunch. All the food (and their respective prices) are displayed on this chalk board. Simple and straight ... 
Managed to catch Beastly last night, thanks to the free tickets provided by Kel Li. It’s a modern-day take of the classic Disney cartoon, Beauty and the Beast, with Alex Pettyfer of I Am Number Four taking the lead male role, Kyle and Vanessa Hudgens of ... 
The Social Network, a movie that I enjoyed watching one time but not twice. When I watched the movie, I felt the soundtracks were (very) forgettable and did not stand out much. How wrong I am as the score won Best Original Score in the 2010 Golden Globe award and ...
