Year End Marathon Blog Update!

Been procrastinating my blog update for as long as I can remember so let's beat the bush (pshk! pshk! - beating the bush sound effect) and get on with the blog!

First up - me and my beloved bf had a wonderful escapade (28-29th Nov) but it was a bit disappointing on the hotel's drop in standards *sigh* for one, the cleanliness of the room is highly doubtful as we encountered a mini cockroach around the living area near the mini bar while having Jenni's blueberry cheesecake we opted to take away.

The water at the pool was ice cold (can't blame 'em coz it was raining for the whole week) and the day when we checked in was quite a nice sunny day, it didn't help much even after we swam and swam non-stop coz the second we stop, the chillness comes right back hitting our body. That was how we ended up cutting short our swim and headed up to our room for shower then a warm jacuzzi instead (the water we prepared for the jacuzzi is not hot enough even when we ONLY turned on the hot water tap and no cold water argh!!!)

But, the bathroom where the jacuzzi is located leaks (or whatever that causes the leak) brought about inconvenience after we enjoyed our jacuzzi session just to realise that our whole bathroom / wardrobe area is being flooded! OH NO!!!!! We became instant house-keepers, wiping the water while at the same time using our feet to 'sweep' the water down the damn hole on the floor.

At night, we literally reserved the entire Casablanca Restaurant all to ourselves coz when we arrived, there was only 1 couple dining and after a while when they left, there's only the 2 of us! How cool is that? For RM80 we can "BAO" the whole restaurant already :D, but I guess Spanish/Mediterranean cuisine is not really my league, I still prefer stuff that Dome, Salsa, 68 Kelawei and Secret Recipe has to offer, not to mention Hong Kong cuisines that Wong Kok and Ice Ice Baby provides as well! (More on Ice Ice Baby later)

At night, after having half of the blueberry cheesecake, my bf decided our night was a bit to bland to just spend in the room so we went and joined his frens at Mambo. It wasn't as lau juak (exciting) as it was the last time around with more frens, more of them getting drunk and high so everybody just about sat around our table the whole nite, so we retreated to our little hotel room quite early and had a little kinky fun with role playing.. although i've regretted it a bit coz he was soooo into his role that he ignored my genuine plead, thinking that i'm just playing my role *duh~*

So we ended up getting up quite late the next day, took our showers together before packing our stuff and headed to our Chicken Rice at Goh Thiew Chiek Chulia St. Good chicken rice! 2 thumbs up! After that we went back to our place, rested a while and then headed to Red Box for a long awaited karaoke session - but I guess both of us were a bit worn out so we were definitely NOT at our best in vocals and singing :)

All in all, it was a nice getaway that we both could use of, but just a bit disappointed on the hotel coz the standard has definitely dropped tremendously - such a shame coz the hotel is one which I personally am quite fond of. Oh well, guess it's time to search and try a new hotel then :) E&O maybe? haha.... Too bad I don't grow money on trees though....
