100th Anniversary of Titanic


Grab your boarding pass and let us enter Titanic once more. Bringing back what had happened nearly 100 years ago. The tragic sinking of Titanic that only 700++ survive meanwhile thousands died in the icy cold water of the ocean. 

I purposely write this in a different post because I want to make sure it stands out. 100th anniversary of Titanic. I am sure that all of you know about the legendary sinking ship Titanic. Marina Bay Sands is doing an exhibition now until the 12th of April 2012 in celebrating and remembering all the events that took place of this magnificent ship. The exhibition is located at the art science museum that is located next to the mall where I said before in my precious post. It is also located next to the louis Vuitton unique building.

When I entered the museum, the first thing that greeted me, was this photo below
The real photo of the titanic back then. I don't know why it sets me on goosebumps. Thinking that I would actually see all those artifacts that used to be in Titanic. The real thing. All this moment I only imagine that I had the chance to see all of these. And, I guess, I did get the chance to see all those artifacts. All of those things that was on the seabed that might not be able to see by humans anymore. I am grateful for it.



The experience while I was walking in the exhibition, ecstatic. I am really amazed how they had set up the place so well. It's like I was there in the ship. They showed from the start until the end. The birth of Titanic, how it was build, who was the person behind it, what day it departs, how was the cabin like for the 1st class, 2nd class and 3rd class. How the engine room looks like, the dining, the reading room, the smoking room. Everything about it until the day that Titanic hit the ice burg. It's surprising that they place a real ice in the exhibition. It was cold. They even had the names who had survived and the one did not survived during the tragic moment. Behind each boarding pass there were details on every passenger that boarded Titanic. So we can actually see were those passengers survived or not.

In my opinion, Titanic could have last longer than it should be. The sad memories could have turn into a wonderful and beautiful memories about the ship. But then there wouldn't be any Titanic romance story and all other stuffs. Ok, I'm starting to crap. So, that is all form me. Anyone interested to go for this exhibition you guys can just check it out from google. Cheers !

A Road Trip...

Since Selangor had a long weekend last week, so my family and I decided to go somewhere. After one whole day of thinking, finally we came out with a place. Singapore. Yes, Singapore again. But this time, it's a different place. Since last time I went to Universal Studios, so this time we decided to go to Marina Bay Sands. Some of you might think what do they have over there? Roller-coasters? Extreme theme parks? Well, you are about to find out about it.

First and foremost, before we hit to Marina bay, there is a place where you have to stop first when you are in Singapore. Singapore Zam Zam Restaurant. This is a must place that you should go. I highly recommend it. Zam Zam Restaurant is located in Arab Street, Singapore. It's near the Sultan Mosque. Yes yes, it's halal food there. Arab street is the place where you can get the halal food in Singapore. Just an info for those who haven't been to Singapore. So, what food can be found in Zam Zam? Of course this is the place where you can get the best Murtabak in Singapore. It is so nice that you just want to eat everything for yourself. Trust me, when I shared it with my friends last time, it was not enough for the 3 of us. HAHA ! The thickness of the murtabak, the goodness of the meat. The way they cook it, everything is just there. So below are just some of the photos that I took after having a delicious lunch there.

 ^Look at all of those meat he is putting in !


After the delightful lunch, we set off our journey to Marina Bay Sands. What is special about this place? Wanna know? Check out this photo below
Welcome to the Gateway of Marina Bay Sands

Didn't I tell you it's awesome. The swimming pool of this hotel is located on the 57th floor. Form this level you could almost see the entire of Singapore. And the breeze, don't even mention about it. It was nice. I love the night view over there. It was full of lights. Lucky as I was, it was the full moon during that time. It was a lovely night to have a swim with my sisters. The rooms that we booked was nice and comfy too. It was a nice stay there. Oh, just to let you guys know, the hotel is linked to the shopping center too. So, no need to fuss about going shopping. It's just a walking distance. So walk ok people. Here is a little peek on how the mall looks like
Ain't it lovely?

After one night stay in Marina Bay, it was time for us to leave the place. Back to Malaysia. You think it ends here? Nahh.. When we got back to Malaysia, I asked my parents if we could go and have dinner in Malacca. Wish granted, we set off to Umbai. Umbai is the place where you can get the best Ikan Bakar in Melaka. Especially Parameswara Restaurant. But I was unlucky, Parameswara wasn't open on the day i went. Felt like shedding some tears at the moment. But still we went to other restaurant that was around there. And it wasn't bad either. Still I love to go to Parameswara. Hope when I go there next time I could get my hands on the Parameswara food.

When we had filled our tummies, we set our course back to home. Even though it was just a short trip. But it was a fun one. Filled with memories that would be cherish in the future...

Korang Rasa Rasa...?


Saya tak nak kata banyak la, pada pendapat korang. Apa yang ditunjukkan dalam gambar ini? Ini dari pandangan saya, asap rokok dan juga abu abu rokok boleh mencemarkan alam sekitar kita. Ia menyumbang lagi kepada pemanasan global yang sedang kita lalui sekarang. Renung renungkan...

Garrett


Have you guys seen this paper bag before? If yes, I'm sure that you would have taste it. But to those who haven't got a clue what I'm talking here, so let me share it now.

Garrett Popcorn Store. It's not just any ordinary popcorn that you buy to go for the movies and just chuck into your mouth. To me, Garrett offers more than that, the flavour and texture of the popcorn is so different from any other popcorn that you can find. Ok, I start to sound like those people on the TV giving comments on food.

I started to get to know about Garret when I was in Universal Studio Singapore. At first I thought it would just gonna be the same old popcorn that I keep eating. But it was totally different from what I had expect it would be. The first bite of the popcorn was so good that I can't stop consuming it.


CARAMEL CRISP ! This flavour is just so hard to resists. The taste of the caramel makes you all hype up and happy. At least it did it to me. One thing about Garrett Popcorn, the coating that they made is just right. Because it sticks to the entire popcorn. So when ever you take a bite of a single popcorn, you can get all the flavour there. Currently eating Garrett right now. HAHA !

I'm guessing some of you would go "Awh, Singapore? All the way to Singapore just for a popcorn? This is just wasting my time..." Well, guess what people, Garrett has opened it's outlet here in Malaysia ! So no need to worry about going all the way to Singapore for the popcorn. You can get it here ! The taste is exactly same as it is in Singapore. 

The one that is located in Malaysia can be found in Suria KLCC. It's easy to find it. It's near Auntie Anne's Pretzels and also Maybank. So, what are you waiting for? go give it a try !

Communication and Media Studies

Surely why some of you are wondering why am I writing about Masscomm. I'm sure that many of you know, Masscomm involves a lot with media. And that is what practically everyone is thinking. Media, media and media. But have you ever thought other than that? Masscomm is not just about being famous artist or being in front of the camera and being a reporter or paparazzi. There is more to it.

Masscomm has a wide range of variety courses that is under it. Of course among it will be Journalism, Broadcasting, Advertising.. This is what mainly the people know. But do you guys know that Public Relation, Interpersonal Communication, Instructional Communication, Publishing, Communication Policy and Regulation and some other more. See there are many other things to it. Not just about being famous in front of the television and let paparazzi follow you everywhere.

Many people think that Masscomm is not a good course to take when is studied in Universities, they say that Masscomm is a bad influence on the generation, don't have a life, no money, no job. Guess what, Those people that you guys keep thinking are the ones who do not know how to lead their life. Meanwhile the others that studied under Masscomm succeed in many things. And can get a lot of money. Example that we can see, take it from a corporate world. Public Relation is the easiest way to see it. Surely many of you know that a Public Relation Officer can do tones of money right? Especially when the person is working under a PR company. Like the Malays always love to say it. Masyukkk bro~

This is just a short one by me. Because it irritates me when ever I introduce myself and tell that I'm a Masscomm student, all of them would go. "Ohhh.. Ni mesti nak duduk depan TV tak pun jadi wartawan kan?" It gets on my nerve. So yeah. Basically, there are tones of things that is related to Masscomm. So, please people. Don't think that Masscomm is a bad thing. People make perception that leads to negative things.
