A trip to Cupcakes Wonderland--- WonderMilk

Good evening, peeps~! Once again, it's me on Ivy @ Feelings FM... I'm your DJ (duh~!) and my name is Ivy~~~~
OK, I don't know when this blog became a food review thing since it doesn't fit my blog name... In fact, I should be talking about feelings instead of FOOD~~
But since everyone likes food right? and I love them too... So I decided along the way I'll share my feelings and expedition I'm going through in KL and of course here and there I'm gonna introduce you guys to some FOOD in KL which I've been to. Although they might not be the best but there would be someone out there who would love it, right?

Let's start. On Saturday, I was sitting in the library studying(Exam is soooo near~!!!) with a few others and suddenly this guy, Ka Vui on the right said this, "I'm craving for Rainbow Cupcakes..."

My head shot up when I heard cupcakes... OK, I'm a big fans for sweet stuffs especially cakes~!! So I was like, "What is rainbow cupcake?"

He thought for a while before answering but basically he said, "The cake is in rainbow colour and tasted like Mat Kool rainbow flavor ice-cream."

I'm like... WOAH~! "Colourings?"

"I asked the guy there, they say its not colouring."

"Awesome. I feel like getting a bite on it... Tomorrow is a Sunday, why not we go then?"

So on Sunday, we met up in the library at 10.00... I was late though... XD
Anyway, we met up at the library and Jewen was there so after cracking our heads on how to get to that place, Jewen volunteered to drive. So we departed, 4 of us... We reached the place called WonderMilk and I think it's quite a famous place because it was quite full even at 11am...

So here we are:
WonderMilk... I was overwhelmed with how they set up their shop as the furnitures they used are very unique. Even from the outside, there are tables and chairs which are made of crates... I was stupified when I stepped into the store itself.

The furnitures are very special and it brings out a very warm feeling. This is not acutally a pure cupcake shop but rather I would term it as a cafe. And it is one which I always wanted in my life. I dreamed of owning such a cafe. With the warm lightings and the nice smell of cupcakes and coffee with the mixture of milk. People having their meals happily, smiling and chatting away... Well, we checked on the price board and decided to get the 12 box set and everyone would have 4 since Shin Li didn't want it. So we picked and picked and picked...

When we first saw the cupcake, we were like... So small a?! Well, we're shocked because when Ka Vui describe to us and did the hand gesture it was quite big... And Ee Teng thought it was slices of cakes and I thought it would be something like a muffin... Anyway, we just got the cupcakes and settled down while I looked around the shop and took photos of the environment here.

These are the cupcake we chose...
First row from left: Oreo, Rainbow, Rainbow, Rainbow
Second Row: Blueberry, Cheesy Cheese, Choc Mint, Oreo
Third Row: Choc Mint, Oreo, (Not sure), rainbow

Well, the cupcakes are OK... It would be fine for sweet lovers but trust me, they are very sweet...
In fact, Ka Vui and Jewen ordered coffee and milk... I heard the milk is really good. I'll give it a try the next time round.
So basically the cupcakes cost RM4.50 each and for a box of 12, it costs RM50.
They sell in one then a set of four, eight, twelve and sixteen I guess...


 OK, so this picture above includes four photos. The first one is some weird animal body thing... The second one is a clock, with WM on it, not sure it meant West Malaysia or World Map... But the pictures on the other side of the board are some drinks in their shop.

The third picture is some cabinets where they put some greens... And the last one is basically the decorations beside the cabinet... See the BAKE word and also the world map...

This photo on the left is some other pictures I took regarding the furnitures. The upper left one is a small corner underneath the cabinet. I wanted to take that place when I saw it... I really love the small wooden table and small chairs. It makes the small corner there looks very cosy... The upper right is another set of table outside the shop. The chair are crates basically.

The lower left one is what I think most unique of all in the whole shop. Can you guys see the picture? Guess what it is make from? The tops of the table and chairs are of course make of planks and woods but the rack itself is made of unused pipes. Creative I would say... And the last pic on the bottom right is a small shelf beside the cashier selling postcards. The design of the postcards are nice and worth RM1 each.
This picture above was 2 pictures I really love... The wall and WM below the clock... Nothing special but I love them for no reason.

 On your left is the menu and numbering they used in the shop. Everything is handwritten and the message on the numbering is interesting. They included their Wifi password there itself and trust me, the password is as cute as the shop.

So basically I did not have breakfast that day and my tummy started growling. After checking the menu, I decided to try out one of the sandwiches---- Mushroom Melt.

I never expected anything much since it's mushrooms and it's normal. I paid and waited and soon the sandwich was served...




And yeap, this bread on my right is the sandwich I ordered. There are mushrooms fillings (DUH~) and of course the secret recipe out of everything... THe all time favorite----- CHEESE~!!!

I took a bite and WOAH~! Never expected to taste THAT awesome and I meant it. It's even better than the cupcakes. If there is a rating, I would give 5/5 for this sandwich over here. Best taste for sandwich ever tasted.

Those who like mushroom, this is a must try. Trust me, you would not regret. Well, but for a sandwich this is a bit expensive... It costs RM10.90 for this. The sandwich will come with some raw veges and also potato salad. So it's quite filling for lunch or breakfast or even for brunch.


So these are the people I went to WonderMilk with... My course mates and ex-course mate
From left: Shin Li (so proud to have a Bruneian friend who is a NERD~ XD); Jewen (The guy who brought me to pasar malam and give me a lift back every night); and the suggestor, Ka Vui...


So this pretty girl who is holding the cup cake is Ee Teng. (Pretty right?) and the crazy girl sitting sideway would be the one and only ME, your DJ tonight and many more nights--- Ivy~
So, before we depart from the shop... We took a photo of everyone with my Samsung Galaxy S3 2.0 megapixels front camera... So from left: Shin Li, Jewen, Ka Vui, Ee Teng and finally, me~!

Have a nice trip there for those who are interested. They have 3 outlets actually... The one went to is +WonderMilk Damansara Uptown. Yes, we went all the way to Damansara from Brickfields for cupcakes.
There are two more outlets situated at Citta Mall and Publika Shopping Gallery...

For more info, feel free to check out their webpage:

Well, that's all for today... And Good Night peeps~!

Ready, Set, GO~!

A very pleasant night to those who are reading or wanting to read my blog. As usual, I'm your Feelings FM DJ, Ivy. Tonight's song would be Stay by Rihanna:


It had not been quite my time recently. I have been wandering around the maze of life trying to get hold of something which I do not know what it is actually.








I took this picture last week when I was on my way back into my condo in KL

When I saw this light shining through the gaps between the pillars, I stood there and look at the sunlight. It was very dazzling but at that very moment, it was like something to me. Something which I've always been searching for.

Since I came to KL, things have not been getting on smoothly. First I was ditched by my only friend in KL for I don't know whatever reason; Then I end up being antisocial in class, staying up all alone. Next I slacked in my studies... So it goes on and on...

In fact, things had been really depressing lately when exams are coming in 57 days and my room mate can never stop annoying me.

Well, I should say from this I learnt some real and true friends. I had a talk with my mom and she gave me another option but I hesitated. It's not that I like KL, in fact I never liked KL... But my friends here, the lecturers here... Those are the reason which makes my want to stay.

I remember one of my friend saying, "Ivy, don't go la!"
I remember one of my course mate saying, "You wanna transfer a? Why?"
I remember one of my bro saying: "You sure ah?"
I remember one of them saying: "As long as the problem is solved, you don't have to move right?"

A few of them volunteered to look out for rooms for me. I even met someone who told me today, "If it's really annoying, you can come over my place to study. My room mate is off till end of this month for study break so no problem. Just give me a text any time."
To say the truth, I'm touched and happy and glad and contented that I meet them.

I was such an antisocial person until I came into this class and I started having more and more friends. Some are Hi Bye friends, some I never talk to, some are study mates but nevertheless every one of them treat me well. I never regretted meeting them. I never regretted open up my heart and feelings to them.

I'm really sorry for the stress I've been through. Breaking down is so NOT ME, but I did last week in class itself. Some of them saw it but they gave me some support and ya, it was really helpful.

Today's status on FB:
I thank all my friends and course mates (this is targeted to them but here I add on, my parents and family) who are concerned about what I'm going through. Thank you for giving me advice and finding an alternative way for me to study under these undesirable circumstances. And I thank HER sincerely for inviting me over to study when it's convenient. Thank you so much. I'll try my best for the exam. Let's fight.

I learnt something... I learnt that there are people who hates me and there are people who loves me for who I am. I do not have to waste time on those who hates me... All I need to do is to appreciate those who loves me, those who supported me, those who accept me for who I am and what I do. Even one day things might change, there is still a 'once upon a time' leaving in my memories within...

Now it's time to get ready for a total boost and rush for examinations. 57 days to go and counting. Let's get ready. Let's pass our exams and meet again next year. Let's finish the whole course and graduate together!

ON YOUR MARK, READY, SET.... GO!!!

PAINTBALL ON THE GO~!!

A very good evening to all of you who are reading my blog...
I'm your DJ for this evening, Ivy.
So, tonight's theme would be the very first step to my 'Let My Arenaline Rush' Plan.

OK, things start this way... 
2 weeks ago, I sort of went into a total stress and depression mode due to the upcoming exams which is in say... 65 days? *OMG, that is so close~ I'm gonna fail man...
BUt anyway, since it's nothing to do with those who are not sitting for the exam, there is no point stressing you guys out... So, me and my classmate were having this conversation in class one fine afternoon before class starts:

Me: "I feel like going for Bungee Jumping." 
Duncan: "Why do you wanna go BUngee Jumping?"
Me: "Too stress, just to release my stress. Wanna come? RM75 in SUnway Lagoon."
Duncan: "WHat?! You are using RM75 to buy gravity? One jump, 2 seconds, RM75?"
Me: "Ya?"
Duncan: "WHy not I buy you a rope and tie your leg and let you jump off from one of the condo in KL? It's free."
Me: "That's not the point."
Duncan: "Cummon! Do something else."
Me: "I really love all this games... I wanna go for BUngee Jumping, Go Carting, Abselin, Flying Fox, Paintball, Lazer Skirmish..."
Duncan: "You seriously wanna go for paintball?"
Another classmate who is sitting behind of us, Mark responded: "I heard paintball. Are we going for paintball?"
Duncan: "We can organize if you guys want."
And so.... This event starts...

So we basically gathered information about paintball fields and the charges... And Duncan set up an event group on Facebook recruiting members of our coursemates to join. Things goes well excepts with some glitch (Well, expected right?) but it turn out quite well and we'll officially starts our story here!

At first we  plan to meet at BAC (Brickfields Asia College, i.e: the college we're studying) and Duncan will pick me and another 2 people from there. I was late but anyway I reached and he called and said, "Hey, Ivy... THere's a block there. The police don't allow me to cross, can you come to BAC2?" 
So me, Prab and Jie Jiun walked to BAC2 and hop on... Anyway, we weren't really late when we reached the place... Walah, It's TAG Paintball at Taman Desa. THe exact location cannot be found on Google Map, so my advice, type this on your GPS if you were to go: Taman Desa Waterpark. It's the same way but it's a very old 4 stories parking beside the waterpark.

So basically when we reached there we started waiting up till 3.15 when we started briefing. They explained Capture the Flag MOde, Team Death and also Terminator(play till the pellets finish)
But in the end we only played the Team Death and Terminator
During the game, adrenaline rush to the very peak. THis is even so when you saw your opponent running around and you hear shooting all around. THe pain when you got shot is intense but it does not last for long. It might bruises you but at the very moment, you feel alive. After all the stress and hectic life in the city, this is one way that will really relaxes your mind. 
NO thought will go through the mind except to survive the game and to shoot down your opponent. 

At the very end, we still have some bullets left so we went on a 1 vs 1 game. This game pushes the thrill to the max. The first round was Duncan vs Prab... The second round was me vs Jian. 
THe sweat after the game really refreshes the mind, and the moment when I got shot at the neck but Keith really makes my blood burnt further. I want to feel the pain, I want to shoot and finish off the game... That is what I tell myself.

I did not get much bruises, only a couple of them... Here, one on my thigh (by I don't know who) and one on my shoulder (by Hui Fang):

After the game, we went for dinner at Seng Kee Restaurant. We had amazing conversations there. IN a way, this game really brought everyone who are usually antisocial to work together and to talk about things that we never talk in class.

From left: Me, Hui Fang, Aeshprit, Prab, Kavitha, Kristen, JJ, Mark, Nelia, Yau Lem, Jian, Keith.
Missing:Siah Fong
Anyway, if there's a chance... I would love to go for a second round. 
Our players. 
Second Row from left: Mark, Nelia, Prab, Jian, Keith (the extremely aggressive one), Aeshprit.
First Row from left: Siah Fong, Yau Lem, Me, Duncan, Kristen, JJ, Kavitha
Missing: Hui Fang.

Here are some info if you guys wanna feel the thrill and join the game. 

Needies:
1. Bottle of water. (You can still buy drinks after the game, we bought 100 Plus RM2.50 per can)
2. Tissue or handkerchief. (Trust me, you will sweat a lot)
3. Clean shirt (For changing after the game)
4. Clean pants (For changing after the game)
5. Towel and toiletries (If you plan to bath after the game)

The thing about TAG paintball is, the people there are pretty good... Friendly Marshalls there, and the toilets are very big and clean. You would feel comfortable with the equipments provided too as they are clean and you do not feel disgusted. 
They will provide you with the mask and the marker, i.e: the gun. Others will be on your own cost.
There are 14 of us, we paid approximately RM100 for the playfield, the equipments and 2 boxes of pellets. If you want to rent the vest, it cost RM10 extra. But it would be advisable for first time players as it is quite painful.

So that's all for today. Feel free to drop any question about this and I'll try to help.
Rating for today's activity:
Adrenaline Rush   :  ☆☆★★★
Thrill                    :  ☆★★★★
Overall                 :  ☆☆★★★ (3.5 actually, but my soft Keyboard doesn't have the half star symbol)

Someone is always there to light up you life

There is one girl that I wanted to write on my blog for a long time...
She is one of the girls I get to know in college...
And to say the truth, I REALLY admire and REALLY like her...

She is one of the craziest person I've ever met,
and mostly one of the most hilarious, adorable and in fact, coolest person...

When we are in a society, a community,
we will meet various kinds of people...
I said that Abigail is the one who helps,
while she is the one who will lighten up your every day...

This girl, her name is AIWEN... a.k.a Germaine(she says)

How do I describe her?
Well, I don't know...
The way she talk,
The way she walks,
The way she communicate,
The way she look at things,
The way she react to situations...
It is all of her own style~

She never cares what other people wants,
she only do things that she thinks its right...
That is her~!
You will smile when you see her...

Example of cases: 3, 2, 1...
1- Whenever someone yawn or blow or let out a sigh, she will twist her lips and say:"Yo... Smelly lo~!!!"
2-Whenever someone say her:" DOn't be so childish la..." She will reply:"Sorry lo, I know you very mature..."
3- Whenever someone drink her drinks using her straw, she will twist her lips(again) and point at the straw and say:" See ur saliva so acidic, the straw melt ady lo~!"
4- One time our Business teacher was telling her if she wants to be a police she need to work out... Since then, whenever someone asked her why don't want to eat or why want to go hiking, she will reply:"Neh, Teacher ask me to work out..."
5- When someone says that the person beside her is pretty, she will say:"SHe pretty, but I'm prettier..." And she will laugh...

To be the truth, she is really an optimistic person. Sometimes when I don't see her, I tend to miss her smile...
I'm just glad to know a person like her...
If I were to label her, I would say that she is the one...

"The One who Will Always Be There to LIGHTEN UP your Life..."

Law test OVER~!

Finally, first Law test over... After this, I can really focus on Maths and business... FUH~ After the test, I was alone in the hostel when suddenly someone sms-ed me...

Abigail... OK, she asked me wanna go out for dinner at 5pm... I was like sure, why not? Since I'm alone... Abigail is really a very nice girl... She has been really helpful with everything... She is NOT calculative at all... As you grow up, you will meet different kinds of people... Selfish, Caring, Trustable, Betrayal... And all kinds of people and scenarios... She is the one who is never ask what people gives her and what will she get in return...

Should say I'm really lucky knowing a girl like her in college life... She is a role model, a tutor and indeed one of my best friend... Sometimes when I look at her, it makes me thinks that she is the one which you won't hate...

She is always energetic, and have spirits for everything. She is that kind of person who you will want to be with... Anyway, we went out with one of her friend... And that is when Jon(a friend of mine) texted me asking if wanna join him and Roy(another friend of mine) for dinner... So we drove back to school and I didn't see Jon anywhere. At that moment it really makes me pissed off. PLEASE~ You are the one who wants to join us for dinner and you are not punctual?

Later we went for cendul and 1st Avenue where some conflicts occur... But at last it still came to an end... But everything that is perfect seems not quite so perfect with the countless intervention of Jon...

Abigail then later hanged out in my unit where I braided her hairs... Not really good at braiding hairs... Haha... Anyway, I like staying around her... Wanna say thank you for all of her efforts these 2 months...

An Always Memorable Day

One thing about being in college as compare to Form 6, you don't have to wear school uniforms...
Besides, you don't get to have a fun life in Form 6...
Although life as an A-lvl college student is kinda stress out, and the subjects are like making you freak out... Examinations from beginning of year till end of the year... You don't get to rest or relax and stuffs...
But we can always arrange some time for some funs...

Today, 2 of our classmates brought guitar to class... And everyone was like fascinated... At least nw we get to do something crazy... Well, not TOO crazy of course...
During lunch time, the two guys was like hurrying to class, bringing out thier guitar and started their playing...
Although it didn't turn out as we thought... Bt at least everyone of us who are stressed out relaxed a little...

First song, Canon in D... They did 4 attempts bt this one is the best...

Then, is 周杰伦——晴天. No lyrics cause no one knw hw to sing... So, a onli some strumming and humming by Shi Yi...

Now, let's see..... When You Say Nothing At All... THis song is a very classic onw, bt we seems totally out of the tempo and maybe the pitch also...

Well, it did make all of us relax out tensioning nerves...
It is an always memorable day in KDU Penang as a college kid...
Guys, thanks for everything...
