Magical Musicals – A West End Production, Amphitheatre @ Sunway Lagoon.

So, I have been procrastinating much. I have been doing things I should not be doing, ranting about things I should not be ranting. But here is definitely something short I wanna share. Being a fan of musicals and plays, I’ actually thought this was one amazing musical I’ve watched. I’ve watched many, many musicals previously. One of the most memorable Musical that I have watched was Sound of Music. I can remember almost everything and anything! But, this is 1 musical to watch if you have not watched. This musical stood up to me because I really thought that the vocals, arrangements and dance were amazing. magical-musicals-500x667 I thought the vocals was superb. The voices, the harmonies, the medleys – beyond words. I was tempted to dance along. No joke. But the attendance was slightly disappointing. But I was tapping my feet all the way, singing to those amazing tunes.

Sorry, the recording quality wasn’t too good. But yeah, it’s still something worth listening to.

I mean, you hardly get to go watch such things in Malaysia. Before I forget, I actually got the tickets all thanks to Tourism Selangor. They are one awesome bunch. In short, I don’t want to say too much. You have probably the next few days to catch it. But if you have some good musicals to share and recommend, yes, you sure must tell me about it!

Golden Palm Tree Sea Villas & Spa, Sepang Gold Coast

Here’s the great thing about writing blogs. I won a 2 Days 1 Night stay at Golden Palm Tree Sea Villas & Spa by writing this. It was an unexpected victory but it made me feel good. IMG_1692 The place I was given a night stay was actually worth RM 599 a night for two. But I’ve to say the view was magnificent and beyond words. So, I thought I’d head down with my family for a quick weekend getaway since it was school holidays and it was a Sunday – Monday where I don’t have classes on Monday.IMG_1693 So, we definitely went for a quick swim and just rock and roll. But my skin get crinkled too fast so I went off to take a quick shower first and took some pictures!IMG_1694 Can’t you see the genuine smile? ;pIMG_1696 No, no. I am not vain. Not at all.IMG_1697 IMG_1698 I don’t know what my brother was trying to pose. But yeah …IMG_1701 Sister. 😉IMG_1702 The view from where I was sitting. It looks so good.

And it was fantastic.IMG_1714 The room was huge enough for all 5 of us with a cozy sofa, 2 beds, Internet connection, Astro flat screen TV, huge toilet / bathrooms, Oh, if you were following my tweets, I actually talked about the bathing area where everyone can see everyone, if you don’t close the blind la!IMG_1715 So many things can be done on the flooor woot!IMG_1716 So here’s the thing. I was too busy eating and was too hungry that I told myself to screw pictures. We drove about 30 minutes out from the hotel to Tanjung Sepat food good food. Seafood, to be exact.IMG_1718 IMG_1719 IMG_1720 Coincidentally, my mum’s colleague was back in her hometown, Tanjung Sepat. So, she brought us out.IMG_1721 See that Claypot Curry thingy?

Selangor Has More…

This blog post is submitted as an entry to Tourism Selangor Writing Competition. So, I decided to go point by point and tell you my favourite. As a brief history, I actually shifted to Ampang, Selangor a year ago and I actually only passed by Selangor daily. But being a KL-ite, if you don’t pass Selangor, you are definitely missing out something. Getting back to the post: Selangor Has More…. FOOD: food Face the fact, I am a Malaysian. I can’t run away from food. We are all spoilt for choices. And everywhere I head to, it’s usually “Have You Eaten?” or “Jiak Pa Be?”. Thats how we really start our conversation. But my real pick in Selangor? This one: ramli This Ramli Burger gives me a “burg-asm”; my friend claims it. It’s one of the most messy burger I’ve ever seen in my life. It’s also a stall with long queues all over. Location: Jalan Kerja Ayer Lama, Ampang between ISKL and SPCA, infront of 7 Eleven. PLACE TO STAY: For obvious reasons right? I stay there. Sure there are place to stay. But I mean if you are tourist, Selangor is one of the states which has the best and coolest hotels all over the town ranging from Gombak to Klang to Kuala Langat and to Sepang. If you want the starts and the moon, Selangor Hotels definitely has different star ratings on their hotel. From backpackers inn to mid-range hotels to classy hotels. stay If I were to take a pick, I’d be bias. Cause here is my pick: house My House! It’s too comfy. I like the way it is. The environment. And of course the people in it that makes it much cooler eh? Location? Sorry, message me to find out la. Trust me. It’s the coolest place on earth! SIGHT-SEEING: I bet, it won’t be complete. The list just got too long that I can’t even tell you all of them. But some interesting places in Selangor includes: see There are just too many that I can’t even pick one to select. But in the whole long list, I am proud to have been to some of them. But someone sponsor me to go to all of them, can? But.. Let me just say this is my pick, and I think you’d have to agree with me: icity This was taken at i-City in Shah Alam. One of the most phenomenal lighting effects you’ll ever see in the world. Address of i-City: CityPark, 40000 Shah Alam, Selangor THINGS TO DO: I actually don’t mean this in a bad bad way. I dont want to give you things to do. Instead I give you luxury to enjoy. Thats me, luxury is me. Honestly. So, here you can go shopping. shoping In my honest opinion, there are so many shopping malls in Selangor. A few I enjoy most? Here’s my pick(s)! There are just too many yo! Jaya One Mall:(No. 72A Jalan Universiti, 46200 Petaling Jaya 46200 Selangor Darul Ehsan.) One Utama Shopping Centre: (1, Lebuh Bandar Utama, 47800 Petaling Jaya, Selangor Darul Ehsan.) If you are young and energetic, just like my. And all you wanna do is to Party on the Dancefloor, fret not cause Selangor does have Nightlife. nightlifeYou’ve bars, bistro, restaurant which you can party your night away. Okay, not in the restaurant. But my point is, if you are on a trip or a tour in Selangor, you don’t want to waste a single second here right? It’s important to make your trip worth-while. Here’s my pick for Nightlife: Laundry: (Lot G75 & 76, Ground Floor, Western Courtyard, The Curve, No. 6 PJU 7/3, Mutiara Damansara, 47800 Petaling Jaya, Selangor) No I am not asking you to do your Laundry. But go check them out. It’s pretty awesome. Up next, EDUCATION. I beg to differ when people tend to think Education in other countries are better. It’s not always the case. educationThere are just too many education institution in Selangor. One of my neighbouring College, which I think it’s one of the best in the line is International Medical University Location: Jalan 51/215 Seksyen 51, 57000 Petaling Jaya, Selangor And also, I am not a Sports fan, but it’s always good to give yourself a tid bit of fresh air. Or I just love pronouncing it as “freshair”. todo2You know where sports bring people together. Sports is also important in bringing good health. In Selangor, it’s not just a place filled with Sports location, but Selangor itself is famous for hosting and sponsoring Sporting activities. I think one of those that I sounds most interesting in the website was: Flying Fox and Abseiling. Location: Pisang Waterfalls near the Karak Highway Don’t ask me why it’s called Pisang Waterfalls okay? Maybe the Waterfalls there really grow bananas. Also, Selangor Has More… OPPORTUNITIES. Whether it’s personal or business growth, Selangor offers a wide range of Opportunities. money Here’s my unsuccessful attempt in looking rich. No, I ain’t rich. It’s just 1 bucks. You’ve to experience Selangor yourselves to know the Opportunities you can get out of here. My pick? No exact, but hit me up at alvinkok_2@hotmail.com when you do get opportunities. I’ll be happy. HAHA CULTURE: In a diverse country like Malaysia, Selangor offers great cultural values and traditional differences which shows the uniqueness of Malaysia. We celebrate everything and anything. It may sound ugly and weird, but we really do. We are happy for each other. And that’s what it’s all about. Check out when I say we really do celebrate for one another: indian Notice the dots on our foreheads? We were celebrating Deepavali and I thought it was pretty fun and nice to do! All in all, Selangor covers all aspect of LIFE. It gives me pride to say that I am from Selangor. What more do you want in a country? or even in a State? It’s all in here. Again, this blog post is submitted as an entry to Tourism Selangor Writing Competition. I hope it helps you in making Selangor your next home or your best tourist destination. =)
