Gong Hei Fatt Choy

It's that time of the year where it's all about the good food and angpows, and of course family bonding time too. To be honest, CNY is my favourite festive season of all(!) cause I get to be home, clad in brand new clothes and reunite with my extended family as well.
One of the tasks I enjoy doing before CNY; decorating the house (^~^)

Massive fireworks just right in front of my house, so pretty! (≧∇≦)

Let it snow, let it snow!

I'm sure most of us wish to experience snow at least once in our life, especially when we are staying in a country that only has one season whole year round. I wonder how does it feel to wake up and realize that it's snowing outside? I would definitely run out of the house and lie happily in the snow, not to forget making ☃ snowman and have a snowball fight, how FUN!

Guess what, you can now have all these fun experiences in Genting's Snowworld! Yes, without the need of flying out of the country :D Two weeks back, I had the opportunity to attend the official launch of SnowWorld with a bunch of fellow bloggers and experience snow myself.
Weather looking rather chilly that day ☁
After an hour of bus ride, we are finally here! ヽ(*⌒∇⌒*)ノ 

Welcome to SnowWorld at Resorts World Genting; the coolest place to be. Having closed for nearly 8 months, the brand new SnowWorld soft opened on 31st August 2012. After opening for nearly 5 months, SnowWorld was officially opened on the 23rd January 2013. 

Before entering SnowWorld, you'll first have to go to the dress up corner to get your snow gears; winter jacket, boots, and gloves. The winter jackets are available in size M,X, L, XL. It's advisable to bring your own socks to keep your feet warm.


There are lockers available too to keep your belongings, it is not encouraged to bring in your cameras and cellphones as they might not be able to sustain the high temperature. If you insist to bring it in, well it's on your own risk then. 

The counter to collect your boots and gloves. 

I was blown away by the beautiful scene upon entering, felt like you're at the other side of the world. It was freezing cold inside, -6°C to be exact. Now I feel the pain of those complaining how cold winter is.   
I was still shivering despite wearing a thick turtleneck sweater and heat tech pants inside the winter jacket.  

The best panoramic view of SnowWorld.
Most photos are taken with Joeann's S3 and we had to take out our gloves to take photos. 

The new SnowWorld offers a completely new enchanted attraction that houses fantasies and wonders on a fairlyland that epic traditional Europoean street scenes (on the left of the photo). There's an English Tea shop, a French Bakery, an Italian Pizzeria as well as shops displaying Spanish red wine,  Dutch clogs and Swiss chocolates to take you to an European experience. 

My inner child was brimming in glee when I saw that it was snowing, die die also must have those snow on my hair :P 
Before the launch, we were first entertained by these energetic young dancers dancing to K-pop songs.  

Then, SnowWorld is officially launched by YB Dato Kevin Sim, Executive Vice President of Genting Malaysia Berhad with the management team by lighting up the 8ft SnowWorld ice sculpture logo with crystal lights *applause*
The 8ft SnowWorld ice sculpture logo being lighted up with crystal lights, followed by a 3 minutes "Day & Night" LED light animation show which is one of the new attractions in SnowWorld too. 
Special appearance by Astro celebrity, Jentzen (middle) and he was also the MC of the event.


Magician show by FREEZE (: 

After the launch, we were brought to the Lover Cave for some refreshment where finger food, coffee, mocktail flavoured popsicles were served.
Later on, we decided to explore around and take photos since we have some time to kill before lunch.
White lips, pale face, breathing in snowflakes ♫♪

The view from above. For something slightly adventurous, one can take a spin on the Cresta Run Slide and slide down from the top of the hill.  


There are four new never seen before attractions to spice up your visit to the new SnowWorld which are namely the Winter Downtown plus World Heritage Concept, LED Light Animation Scheme, The Lookout Point and the Warm House. 


Of course I didn't miss the chance of making my very own angel wings *inserts halo above* 
 Me and my angel wings (*≧▽≦)



Take a stroll down the streets of snowy downtown and be amazed quaint and scenic streetscape. 

It was definitely a cool experience and we sure had fun taking photo and being mesmerized by the spectacular view in the cold ❤❤❤ It was too cold too handle or else we would have a snowball fight with each other. So what are you waiting for? Head up to Genting and have some fun at this snowy wonderland, be it with your friends or family.

Little Cafe @ Muar [Revisited]

In case you forgot, I've blogged about this cafe before HERE during my previous trip to Muar last year. As for this visit, it was back in January this year. Since we had some time to kill before dinner and no where to go since it was raining heavily, we decided to drop by and have some coffee.
Chocolate mint cake and Cheesecake @ RM5.80 each
Comfy interior of the cafe, they have rooms too for big groups. 

The cheesecake was real good, fluffy and cheesy enough to my liking :P Yumssss!


My kind of laid-back Saturday where I get to chill and indulge myself with a good read.
Not a coffee person, so tea for me please (: 

Honey Milk Tea @ RM5.00 
 Just so you know, 50% off on all coffee drinks from 3pm to 6pm except public holidays at Little Cafe!
Cappucino @ RM3.25 (NP: RM6.50)
Such cute coffee art and I supposed it meant Little Cafe (: 


Mocha @ RM3.25 (NP: RM6.50)
Since I didn't get to take a lot of photos of the interior during my previous visit, so this time round I get to walk around the place and snap anything that fascinated me, good thing that there weren't a lot of customers that day too.


Their toilet is definitely one of a kind; my friends insisted that I need to pay IT  a visit LOL
So this is how the toilet looks like. Creepy? You tell me. A bit overboard with the decorations, I guess.
And look, there's an umbrella on top of you while you're doing your business HAHAHAHA 

Loving these vintage posters! 


The mini library (: 

Meow? 

No idea how this makes sense but it's funny :P 
Definitely a nice place to chill at night or during the weekends with your friends or even when you need some time alone. Perhaps I'll try out their food the next time I'm there.
