while looking through some of my folders, i found a bunch of pictures that i’d forgotten about! i’d meant to collect at least 10 of these photos of myself and roadsigns of the roads in KL that i frequent, but i only got to 7 before i’d forgotten all about it. haha. so because i know i’m never gonna get around to photographing the other 3 roads, here are the first 7 anyway, along with my favourite and frequented places along said roads.
Jalan Bukit Bintang
Photographer : Waimin
What’s there :
- Starhill (Tiffin Bay, Jogoya and the Feast Village!!)
- a Japanese restaurant called Dontaku which used to be so good but not anymore
- Westin Hotel (Prego, Qba)
- the Marriot which has a fantastic chinese restaurant called Shang
- Sg Wang which is like a melting pot of everything
- Oggi at The Regent which is a pretty good Italian restaurant
- the huge Giordano signboard above the Mcdonalds which used to have Utt on it, and i would always stare dreamily at it while waiting at the intersection’s red lights.
Jalan Yap Kwan Seng
Photographer : Short Brother
What’s there :
- Sasso Rosso which has the best panna cotta ever
- Market Place, a nice restaurant & lounge, where i had a really good chocolate mousse
- Smokehouse which used to be my go-to for Yorkshire pudding but sadly it’s degenerated into a really crap place
Jalan Doraisamy
Photographer : Ivan
What’s there :
- Asian Heritage Row!!! i like Cynna and Bar Savanh.
- Bar Blonde for nights of gossip and conversation
- Palacio has good tapas
- and of course there is Maison (as opposed to Maisons wtf is Maisons, people) but that’s technically off the Heritage Row
- and my new workplace is here too wtf.
Jalan Ampang
Photographer : Kelvin Tan
What’s there :
- there is of course Suria KLCC, one of the top malls in KL
- La Risata, a cosy italian trattoria that serves great food
- the ‘Korean Village’ at the other end nearer to Ampang itself
- Jalan Damai is off this road, and that houses Hajime and Rahsia as well as this place called Arabic where everyone goes to shisha.
- Zoukkkk
- Great Eastern Mall is here too, and that naturally means Alexis.
-a decent Jap place called Onagi
Jalan Telawi
Photographer : Hock Chuan
What’s there : omg my favourite road of all the 7!!!!!!
- Bangsar Village 1, which has the Delicious Group’s new place called D’lish where the concept is healthy, self-service and quick takeaway. Village Grocer is here too, easily best supermarket in KL.
- Relish’s 2nd outlet. yum yum gourmet burgers
- Kuku Bar, where i get my pedicures and threading done
- Theophileus Tan’s house hahaha
- Starbucks at Telawi 3, my favourite Starbucks outlet in the whole wide world. nothing tops it.
- Bangsar Village 2 at Telawi 3, where MARMALADE is!!! Sole Lovely has some cute shoes. Kitsch has even cuter shoes and those Little Miss Something tshirts that i totally want.
- Nirwana at Telawi 3, the institution of banana leaf rice. great maggi goreng too
- Mooie at Telawi 2, one of the better boutiques in bangsar
- Strip at Telawi 5, my other pedicure place. it’s actually a nice waxing salon, but i’ve never gotten that done
Petaling Street
Photographer : Chi
What’s there : i used to think Petaling Street is such a crap place for ’shopping’ cos i hate all that fake LV wallet shit. but then while looking for stuff for this carnival i organized in high school, i poked around the other streets near Petaling St and was pleasantly surprised to find that there are a lot of interesting little places that sell the coolest stuff for quite cheap. Petaling Street also has great hokkien mee, beef noodles, apam. Terrence says there is a good porridge stall that caters to the post-clubbing and breakfast crowd, but i’ve not been.
Jalan Kiara
Photographer : Martian
What’s there :
- Plaza Mont Kiara which has a Starbucks outlet where i used to pull all-nighters at during SPM days coz it was the only Starbucks in KL that opened 24/7
- the first Marmalade cafe
- the most important Coffee Bean outlet ever
- Somo which is a nice hangout place
- and of course, Martian’s apartment :)
Other roads i wanted to include :
Jalan Pudu
- my family doctor is here! Dr Tham. hahaha.
- best curry mee
- the original wai sik kai
- Pudu’s best kept secret aka Marmite Chicken Rice at this cafe called Vinz
- best siew yoke ever but technically it’s off Jalan Pudu
Jalan P Ramlee
- Ozeki which is a damn good Japanese restaurant!!!
- Passion, one of my favourite bar lounges
Jalan Changkat Bukit Bintang
- Frangipani, best fine-dining restaurant in all of KL. sorry Lafite.
- El Cerdo, a modern european restaurant serving many porky dishes. the pork knuckle and the young blonde manager are so yummy. definitely a must-go
- Twentyone, a nice bar that just opened. i love the vibe here
- The Magnificent, a fish&chips place. even has mushy peas haha.

okay no more. KL really has some great places, eh :)

June 5th, 2007
in all seriousness, i may lose my life this weekend. so before that happens, i want to publicly declare the delegation of my treasured possessions to the rightful parties now, in order to avoid any ownership tug-of-wars when i’m dead and gone and cannot rightfully confirm who will have what.
to my father, i leave my weighing scale that is actually yours but i stole it. hahaha. well, you can have it back now!
to my mother, i leave all my shoes and handbags. and that leopard-print slip that’s a little too big for me. yes mum, now you dont need to work so hard at finding all the hiding spots in which i stash my latest purchases. p/s : the enzo angiolini shoes that i would never let you borrow are underneath the rolled-up final fantasy 8 posters underneath my trenchcoats.
to Tall Brother, i leave my full-length mirror. you know you want it.
to Short Brother, i leave my room. the space only, you idiot, not the stuff. you may as well have it. dont think i dont know you always sleep in my room whenever i’m out of town!
to Kak Nur who’s almost family, i leave all my makeup. dont think i dont know you always secretly try on my makeup whenever i’m not home! yes, you can have my makeup brushes too.
to Martian, i leave all my little white thongs. ahem. and my Ixus coz i know you like it. and all my love for ever.
to Sieutheng, i leave my 2007 angpau stash. it’s in that little cabinet underneath the jigsaw portrait aira gave me! use the money wisely okay… dont squander it all on shisha or something.
to Waimin, i leave my laptop. coz you will most probably never get one of your own. eh.. i got all of Grey’s Anatomy season 3 on my harddisk! watch okay! ogle McDreamy. send him my love.
to Aira, i leave my long-overdue bday present for you. hahaha! it’s the giftwrapped package on the 3rd rack of the shelf next to my wardrobe.
to Ivan, i leave the Topshop & Topman vouchers i have in my certificate folder. go buy yourself some new duds, my dahling. hopefully you bump into you-know-who again!
to Jovann, i leave my iPod. yes lah yes lah i know yours is more canggih than mine, but better than nothing right!
to Songjun, i leave all my Starbucks vouchers. you can find them in the folder where i keep all my certificates. here’s to many many many iced hazelnut lattes when you come home!
to Johanny, i leave many many hugs and smooches and memories of first-time meetings in Crown Towers, Melbourne.
to Smartypants, i leave my entire collection of books! you know where they are!
to Hock Chuan, i leave you the sole packet of Reese Peanut Butter Cups i have left. it’s on my desk in my room.
to Tze, i leave my Alexander Mcqueen shoes and all the Kookai stuff i have in my wardrobe!
to Kevin The Beaver, i leave the phone numbers of all the hot girls i know. you can find them all in my cellphone.
to Timtam, i leave all my old issues of KLue and memories of camwhoring in supermarket trolleys
to Booha, i leave my entire MP3 collection (C:\Su Ann\MP3s in my laptop) and all my local singer-songwriter CDs! check out the Reza Salleh one! it’s at the top of the pile on my desk.
to Puppy, i leave my RBJ Patron status! because i’m a hippie like that! oh and my domain space as well.
to Dr. Scott, i leave the uncropped version of my shower photo. but only coz i know you’ll approach it from an artist’s POV!
to Kenny, i leave all my Powerbars, the ones i didnt eat. the reason i’m dead is you!!!
to Ginny, i leave my angel wings. may you never be conned into paying too much for another pair again!
to Albert, i leave my Goodbye Boys VCD, as well as the bottle of Bacardi in my kitchen, second cabinet from the right. arrrr!
to Jay, i leave my Singapore Selftimer photos to caption with as you please. and that Clark Kent phonebooth photo too! and the hope that the makers of Grey’s dont decide to do that ridiculous spinoff.
to Azlan and Jeremy, i leave a pinch on both your backsides!!! how dare you get me all excited over our australia getaway and then just kill my hopes like that!! stoopid -_____-
————————-
okay the end, i got no more stuff to give away.
and before i leave the world forever, here are some more Singapore Selftimer photos for all my nearest and dearest to remember me by :( this time, it’s me and Kermit the Frog!
check out the Space Invaders wall!! it was at this point that i noticed Kermit and grabbed him to camwhore
kermit likes his eyeball licked
spot the kermit!
kermit and my backside
bored kermit and bored me coz ming keeps neglecting us
doing laundry.. not
locked out! or just pretending to be
and finally, a somewhat proper pic of meself and ming!
okay i’m gonna go relish the last few minutes of my time in this world. i still have yet to tell my family and friends how much i love them, eat my last Oreo and drink my last Diet Coke. i’m looking back on the past 18 years of my life with some resignation; there are so many things i wish i had done differently. but then again, i had a kickass life and way more than my fair share of fun, so no regrets :) and at least i’m gonna die an honor roll student, haha.
but it just kinda sucks that i’m never gonna be able to read the last Harry Potter book.
May 10th, 2007
i absolutely CANNOT wait for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. my life is just suspended until the release of the final Potter book.
the Time Traveller’s Wife is being made into a movie!!! and guess who’s playing Clare?! only the most perfect person for the role. i love you always forever, Rachel McAdams.
America’s Next Top Model 7 is the best ANTM season ever
Jaga Jazzist is going to Singapore!!! who wants to come?!
i’ve got a craving for love. it’s a brittle, wispy, dusty kind of craving.
i want to watch a movie on satellite tv with someone i love. someone whose shoulder i can lean on, who will play with my hair, someone i can kiss, and snuggle under a blanket with.
five more days to the end of the Grey’s Anatomy hiatus, argh! i can only hold my breath for so long :(
right now, i want to be elsewhere.
i want to marry Haley Joel Osment. it would be the most beautiful marriage ever.
if i got married, ivan would be my bridesmaid.
2007 is going to be a good year. i feel it in my fingers, i feel it in my toes..

How did u meet #14? [Jien]
okay, this is like the 3rd time i’m being asked this question in the past 2 days. seriously, girls (and quiz), JUST TALK TO HIM YOURSELF ALREADY. i swear, one of these days i’m going to be known as ‘Jien’s friend’ instead of Su Ann. anywayyyy i met Jien at Lynn Nee’s 17th bday party last year. everyone thought he was Japanese.
What would your life be if u haven’t met #1? [Ivan Shin]
man my life would be so sad. i would have no one to bully, no one to thwack, no one’s car to sit on, no one who will wait 3hrs for me to show up for a movie date, no one who will advise me against buying ridiculous things like giant teacups that i wanted to use for soup bowls..
dont you think this would be PERFECT to serve soup in???
What would u do if #20 and #9 dated? [Arthur Loh, Julian]
seeing as they both think the other is really cool, i wouldnt be entirely surprised if this happened… only, er, they’re kinda straight. and arthur has finally gone steady with ONE GIRL so let’s not ruin the chances of that relationship!
Would #6 and #17 make a good couple? [Johanny, Ginny]
NO @_@ hahahha not at all! Gin’s too high maintenance for happy, simple Johanny. but she’d like dating him cos then she can go to Melbourne and have Max Brenner!
Describe #3. [Wai Min]
shite where does one start. she’s complex in a simple way, sensitive, delicate yet stubborn, has two layers, confused, perfectionist, scared, worrywart, lover of milk and tehtarikboys, exquisite, self conscious, curls and lace, beautiful.
Do you think #6 is attractive? [Johanny]
of course… i pick my future husbands hot! :D oh and johanny looks like Peter Parker. as in Tobey Maguire Peter Parker.
Tell me something about #8. [Kevin Low]
he’s A SLUT. a SLUT i tell you! actually wait, i can tell you more than that. he’s got a bunny named Hunny. he taught me how to DotA, he plays WoW day in day out (or used to), he’s majoring in aeronautical engineering, he’s in Wichitaaaaa, he totally layans me when i beg him to bring back Reese’s peanut butter cups! oh and he loves me!
Do you know anything about #12’s family? [Sarv]
hell yeah i do. they are the reason why we call him Cinderella Sarv… they dont allow him out past 12. and his dad is a past alcoholic who wont let Sarv drink. which is a good thing. and er, Sarv’s elder bro used to go to the gym with Hishy’s elder bro? and apparently his mom is one fierce woman.
What is #7’s favourite? [Alvin Woon]
me lah of course
What would you do if #11 confesses that he/she likes you? [Isa]
i would make him buy me many banoffee pies. and i’d make him promise to give me direct answers in the future, instead of saying “yes and no” all the time to yes *OR* no questions! haha then we’ll go out.
What language does #15 speak? [Ee Yean]
oh oh i know this! english, BM, hokkiennnn! she’s a penang lang, yo. eh wait, is ‘lang’ even hokkien?
Who’s #9 going out with? [Julian]
the hottest, cutest, most intelligent, nicest, coolest girl ever. seriously.
How old is #16? [Ee Yang]
my age, 18. i wish i would stop bumping into him at college.
When was the last time you talked to #13? [Zul]
just this morning. we laughed over Jien’s version of the Microecons survey, and then i thwacked him even though it wasnt his fault.
Who’s #2’s favourite singer? [Aira]
man, talk about difficult questions!!! she listens to too much music! okay for now i’m going to pick Augustana and Snow Patrol. hehe embarassing revelation : she used to be crazy over BLUE! and 911!
Would you date #4? [Jovann]
OMG NO. NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO *washes eyes out with soap*
jovann and i are only good makeout-in-bathroom partners. we would not do well as a real couple.
Would you date #7? [Alvin Woon]
i would seriously consider this, but the sad fact is that our chinese astrological signs clash! dragons cannot date dogs, evarrrrrr. you know that right, puppy =( looks like we’re just not meant to be!
Is #15 single? [Ee Yean]
she’s so ambiguous, i swear i wouldnt KNOW even if she wasnt! okay la i’m just assuming she is. cos she never told me about any guy! even though i share all my deepest darkest secrets with her :(
What is #10’s last name? [Vin]
holy shit i dont know
Would you consider being in a relationship with #19? [Tze Ching]
i would consider it, yes :D but i like the Tze Ching & Eugin pairing too much to take that consideration seriously
What schools did #3 go to? [Wai Min]
Sri Inai, Sri Garden, Taylors. and er, Jean Gan ballet school, if that counts
Where does #6 live? [Johanny]
too far away in Melbourne :(
What is your favourite thing about #5? [Sieu Theng]
her natural ability to make the situation very light hearted and fun
What do you think about #13? [Zul]
he sure can throw whiskey in people’s face with style… and he’s tall. and he’s got good taste in brownies. and i want his car. dammit.
What do #4 and #19 have in common? [Jovann, Tze Ching]
HAHAHA wow where do i start. the diva attitude, for one. the penchant for expensive things and branded stuff. the vanity, the utter and complete narcissism! the love for their hair. and skin. and, er, everything else about themselves :P
What special qualities does #17 hold in your life? [Ginny]
she’s a neverending source of dramatic tales .. :D
What is the most memorable memory you had with #18? [Suet Li]
talking about sex on MSN! wait one more, talking about format for SPM Moral on MSN! (eh babe did i ever tell you i got an A1!)
