So I've recently started work and we had a training session in KL, which was aimed at getting us up to speed with the core values/company culture and also a networking opportunity for all the new hires.

After a rather long 6 hr coach ride, we finally arrived on the Boulevard hotel, where we checked in, put our stuff down and headed off to see a bit of KL.

The boulevard hotel is pretty decent, quite new and clean, with a rather large bathroom. I would have loved to just chilled in the room but it was time to go out and do some sight seeing. 

The first stop was the iconic Pavilion. It's pretty much like most shopping malls in Singapore, with all the designer store and high street shops, so we decided to try to locate something uniquely malaysia.

These are the pretty teacups on the fountain, and just across the road,there was sephora, in a very interestingly shaped building.

I had to take a picture of this because we no longer have A&W in Singapore and the first thing my bf asked me to do when I got to Malaysia was have the root beer float from A&W. However, we headed off for some more authentically malaysian food. 

Dinner was really great and somehow I had no pictures, it's really affordable with the strong Singapore dollar.

The next night we just hang out near the hotel and went to the Midvalley mall. We headed for dinner at a Japanese restaurant, which truthfully wasn't too impressive. But then the Krispy kreme Cafe more then made up for it On the trip back to Singapore, almost the whole bus had a box of krispy kreme each.

One really interesting thing was a queue at carrefour for pregnant ladies.

On the last night there, we went to Kenangan wholesale city for a lot of shopping! Managed to buy 2 dresses in 30 minutes because all the stores were closing.

It was a great trip and yeah, I'm pretty excited to be able to go back there at some point in time ( well it is pretty close to Singapore!)

Bye for now :)

So I finally got to go to Disneyland at the ripe old age of 21. I'm kinda glad I went at this age because I really enjoyed it and was old enough to remember what happened! I've been to Disneyland Paris when I was 15, but memories of that seem rather vague and I didn't have pictures with many characters.

We drove from Sunnyvale to Anaheim, and checked into the Sheraton before waking up early the next morning to head off to Disneyland for breakfast with minnie.

We got to meet many characters without queuing, which was the main perk of having breakfast there because the food was nothing to rave about but more of the one on one encounters with the characters.

Captain Hook and I

We got to meet minnie for a second time that day at Minnie's air show :)

Took a pic for my sister and her fiance and this was so apt as their upcoming wedding is travel themed!

One of the highlights of the day was meeting Duffy bear. Last summer I got a friend to get me a duffy and bring it back from America for me, (Well I never thought I would get to go to Disneyland then!) so meeting Duffy in person was a big big bonus for me!

And who can forget wonderful happy donald!

We managed to catch the play parade at Disney California Adventure Park and I really enjoyed it!

We even ran into Cruella! 

One of the highlights of the day was.. MEETING THE PRINCESSES. I love disney princesses so much, yes even at 21 so I was thrilled to get pictures taken with them!

The beautiful Belle!

I even got their autographs :)

Ariel and I!

Towards the end of the day we caught the parade on Main Street as well.I love disney parades and think they are very well coordinated. You can't possibly go to Disneyland and be sad.

We finally made it to Cars land, which coincidentally officially opened on the day we were there and the set was amazing. Apparently queues for the rides in cars land was at least 5 hrs on opening day. Crazy!

I really enjoyed my Disney experience, especially catching the Aladdin show, Phantasmic and World of Colours. Disneyland, I'll be back soon!

I finally got to visit one of the most famous streets in the word, the walk of fame! There are so many stars there, but here are a few that are particularly meaningful to me.

Words cannot express how much I adore Celine Dion, one of the first albums I actually owned was Taking Chances, given to me by I. I love her voice and how she is so emotional when she sings such that the song becomes so meaningful and you can really feel the power in the voice. 

One of my favourite movies would have to be like water for elephants. It was one of the first movies i watched with A and her acting in it was fantastic. I love the colours of that film too

The muppets star! What's not to love about Kermit playing rainbow connection by the swamp? (on a side note I had just visited the site in which the song was filmed, on the Warner Brother's lot!)

The walk of fame is home to many people dressed up in character outfits, and you can pay to take a picture with them. Also there were many make shift food stalls too. Pretty interesting street.

Took a picture at the original angry bird's tile! heehee

And the legendary Michael Jackson!

This has got to be one of my favourite stars, Julie Andrews! Mary poppins, sound of music, princess diaries. She basically made my child hood and is such an inspiration!

After that we went to catch the Avengers in 3D at El Capitol Theatre.

Before the movie began, there was an organist playing many disney tunes ( it is a disney theatre).   The theatre really is quite grand and before the movie began there was a light show too! After the movie, we headed down to see Stan Lee's private collection of Avenger's memorabilia. 

The set of 4 comic books are worth $1million USD.

One of the best movie experiences I've had. Definitely worth going there to catch a movie if you're in Hollywood.
