YAHAVA KOFFEEWORKS

This place is located slightly further in near Leban Cafe, JCU area. It's near Ice Cream Chef @Upper Thomson. Visited this cafe for a coffee break with A and it's a pretty awesome place! They has an Academy providing barista training so if you are interested, you can always check out their website!



The tables are pretty much taken up probably because it's a public holiday that day! But I'm pretty sure many ppl stop by for a coffee break during weekdays too!


Don't you think my BFF can be a model? Candid also so pretty!!


But she has an issue. She's always frowning, why uh?


Take photo of coffee also frown. Anyw if you have read A's post on Yahava, she mentioned about how she really like their coffee served with a rubber holder! I really like that idea too, I haven't seen other cafes doing the same! Yknow you don't have to pick up the cup with your thumb and index finger, quickly take a sip and immediately put the cup down.


We ordered a scone to share! I'm not a fan of muffins or scones, so I must say it's pretty normal to me! The jam reminds me of ikea meatballs.




She take pic of me taking pic of her. You geddit?


Ha, I love this shot! The slight blur effect! The lighting is great too!

On a random note, some stranger came up to us to give us a free cup of coffee! Yay to free stuff, esp food/drinks! Cheapo is me.


The only reason why I hate bangs: WHEN IT'S NOT LONG NOR SHORT!!!
And this is what happens during selfies. 

Adjust abit.....


Still cui as ever.



SEE I TOLD YOU SHE'S ALWAYS FROWNING. 

I look super shag that day? Damn.


CONFIRM SAY I ACT CUTE RIGHT Y'ALL.

BUT WHATEVER BYE.

ROUNDHOUSE PIZZA, BAR & GRILL

Headed to Roundhouse, located at Turf Club Rd! If you have been to Rider's Cafe or visited Pasarbella, you probably know where is it! It's near the entrance anyw, so if you cab down like what me and A did, you better inform the cab driver to drop you at the entrance, don't go all the way inside till The Grandstand! You will have to walk quite abit back, don't say never warn you!

My bae taking photo of a white horse. Like taking MV of her LOL
And more photos of her coming up! Behold.....

Don't know why this woman frown while using her phone. Someone must have pissed her off.

Oh then she smiled again, this time w her pretty hat she just bought!

too chiozxzxz

Oh a random shot of me heh! My face looks alittle pale here , not sure if I was alre sick. Because the next day, I'm down w a 38.2deg fever. 

HAHA, dis gal trying to act silly!
And that's all for the photo spamming while waiting for our food! Oh anyw, thats the virgin mojito which came before the food! We talked more about it in our video! Check it out at the end of the post! 

Aglio Olio
It's one of my fav pastas dishes to order! Sometimes when I'm sick of cream/tomato sauce, I go for Aglio Olio! And this dish right here, I must say, it's cooked to PERFECTION imo I dislike Aglio Olio that really oily, it tends to cover the taste of garlic and spices? I love garlic, so I like it when the garlic's taste is slightly stronger!

Portobello Mushroom Burger, in between the two big pieces of mushrooms kiap one tofu! This is like the BEST vegeterian dish EVER. By vegeterian, I meant there's actually no meat! Idk what oil they use so I can't say that it is vegeterian. A and I couldn't stop going MM MM throughout. It's just too good! Can't describe, go try it!!!

What we ordered to share! We were damn full we couldn't even finish the truffle fries. 

I personally think the truffle fries is alittle oily, but I still love it! I have tried a considerable number of truffle fries from different cafe, and this is one of the best I've tasted! I dw to mention the worst which many ppl actually still raved about it? And it's so ex! This one from Roundhouse is much worth my moolahs!
Anyw I'm sorry, the focus is on the sauce dip instead of the fries. Heh, pardon my got bad photography skills.

We went to take some photos ard the area after dinner!  This is my beautiful model for the day!



Watch me interviewing Lady A! It's my first time editing video btw! I tried okay!!!

21ST X THE WHITE AFFAIR

Starting this post with my favourite photo taken on that day!And yes, it's my 21st birthday party held at The Chervons chalet on 20th July 2014!


I'm doing this post to specially thank a few groups of people. If you don't see your face here, please don't kill me. Not that I don't love you, just that there's seriously too many photos to upload here, I'm alreeady dying trying to rearrange these photos!


Doh Ray Mee. Mommy not steady, never wear white! And who do I look like? My mom or dad? A lot of people can't answer this question of mine tbh. HAHA, if you have an answer, don't mind just ask.fm me @xxevangelinexx, I really want to know.

Anyw, I'm never someone good at words, and my family ain't those that show affections well to each other. We appreciate one another deep inside our hearts and do small little things to show our gratitude. I love my parents, they are people who dislike parties , they don't really like crowded places and it's very sweet of them to help me plan this party,collecting my cake for me, and making sure there's more than enough food for everyone. My dad even bought a watermelon here to cut himself!! My mom even became more sociable and tried communicating with my friends. HAHA, don't be fooled by her, she's a really fierce lady. My dad on the other hand,always gives a poker face. But he's seriously a joker, he has never hit me before. He's the one who is always advising and listening. 

But my dad always gets stopped at the immigration for an extra check. Seriously, he didn't do anything or what, he just stood there, cross the clearance system machine, but ALWAYS gets stopped again for another round of body check. Once, we even ask him to join another queue and don't stick to us, he still gets stopped. LOL it's a joke in our family, forever laughing at him because of this.



That's my family photo with Justin my cousin being extra right there. My sis and the boyfriend, Mom, Dad, me and Jack! Was quite surprised Mom actually asked Jack to join us in the photo, it's the first time Jack met my parents! 


And a photo with baby! He helped me a lot throughout the planning and the day itself. Mostly he did all the driving, drove me around to buy things and this chalet also he helped to go down book one! I didn't show much love for him during the period because I don't want to make it look like I'm being so nice to him just because he helped me so much. 


I like this candid photo of me and bff!!! Anyway, she the girl who tolerated so much of my nonsense and rants, I hope she will never give up on me one day. She came early to help me with my flower drape backdrop that day, without her nimble hands I probably can't finish this by myself!

And thank you for being the photographer on that day and also the birthday video! Not forgetting the playlist too!!


Another pretty photo of us!



That's my big bro trying to act cute but he's so nice, he helped me plan how the balloons gonna go and stuff! For those who came, they have to take a polaroid with me and write a card, then the card will be tied to a balloon! It's his idea! Must really thank him for always being there and caring like a real brother to me!!


My fav f4 in this world HAHAHA


Mr Paul Lee whom I always hit because he always looks very 'cushiony'! His chest jitao like pillow?!


Weiqin! He helped me to book the chalet under his name, because cheaper! He's like a younger brother to me!


Vanessa whom I met for the first time and she helped me a lot!?
 I mean it's hard to know someone on the first day and did so much for you right? Anyw, she's a makeup artist, very professional okay! She did my brows for that day, but damn, I can't draw the same anymore. She drew it so well and so natural!!

Some pics of the buffet that day, I ordered from The Caterers! The food was so-so I should say because I see quite abit of leftover, I didn't get to eat much that day, was too busy catching up with friends and taking photos!! I love the curry though, it's their signature dish! 

I must really say their service is awesome! I spoke to 2 different ladies on 2 different occasions! And both of them were so nice! The first lady was Peggy( if Im not wrong!), she called me to confirm my dishes with me and recommended some changes too, which indeed turned out great! A second lady, I forgot her name, but she answers the calls at night, after office hours. The calls were probably directed to her phone. She is always driving when I called her. I mean it's nice that ppl answer your calls after office hours, because who wants to work extra right? Or maybe she's the boss. 

But if you are someone who think service is very very important, then I guess The Caterers is a good choice! The ladies are really friendly!



The fruit, jellies and cream puffs are prepared by my mom, not from the caterer! 



That banner is a present from the boys! Nice right! I can't wait for my sis to move out now hahaha I wanna hang this up in my room! And those where the balloons that I was talking about! See the cards hang under the balloons?!


My mafia partner in crime! Know her for another 8 years alre, since sec 1 and I never regret knowing this princess. She's like a princess but I've seen her grow up, like a mother sees a daughter okay! Thank you for helping me with the photography that day, and even fed me food so that I won't go hungry! 


My 2 uncles, aunt and grandma! Two ladies in white at the corner are my cousins! <3 and there, the two naughty boys in ma house, cousin Justin, and nephew Zane with the epic face of his!


Finally had some time to sit down and talk to Mom Dad and grandma! Heh, don't you think my dad is so cute?!

Heh, that's me when the birthday song wouldn't end and I feel so awkward, having all the eyes on me! HAHAHA


Shall end with my photo of me with the presents! Thank you all who came and your presents! I love you all!
