I say Raju's, you say banana leaf rice!

Tasha (my AD) brought me, Naen (pronounced as 9, what a name right?) and Joshua to this restaurant at Jalan Gasing. The place is called Raju's or Kedai Bawah Pokok. They got the nickname Kedai Bawah Pokok because the store is located right under the tree, sooo cooling.

We ordered all the gorengs, goreng ayam, goreng ikan and goreng sotong. The best was the goreng sotong! The ayam and ikan was not flavourful enough becuase it was not marinated long enough, but the ingredients are really fresh. I requested for more rice because I was starving! Naen, Tasha and Joshua couldn't believe the amount of rice a skinny girl like me could consume. Muahaha! They haven't seen anything yet!


My mountain of rice.


All the goreng-gorengs. So delicious, so fattening. So don't care and just dig in!

The most impressive thing about Raju's is not the location, food, drinks, etc. It's a signage that's placed at the counter.


It says, 'We have no quarrels with competitors who charge less. "After all they know what their food is worth"'

Now that is one fierce competitor! Kudos to Raju's!

Me and my beloved friend Michelle are on a project - to create a business out of our passion, talent and hobbies. We speialize in cupcakes and cards. Our first step is to cater for weddings first, cupcakes as edible gifts and wedding cupcakes and the cards as invitation cards and thank you cards. Our dream and long term goal is to own our own one of a kind Cafe Boutique.

Our project is something you should look out for, we have so much to offer. What makes our project unique is that we are doing what we love to do and we do it with so much passion. We are still in planning phase and we need all the support you can give. If you have any contacts that will be useful to us, please drop me a comment. We will keep you updated on our progress.

So look out for us!

Here is my lovely partner - Michelle's version of On A Project. You can also always check out her blog for more of our project updates.

Creative Juice moved on 24th April 2009! From the second floor to the first floor! The office space is much bigger and the new office is sooooo cool!

The Old Office


The amount of things we need to carry downstairs.


More things to carry.

More junks.


Wonder what's in your ceiling.. Wonder no more...

Mira's new desk which is next to mine.


My new desk and it's reserved for me untill I graduate!

All these pictures were taken during the moving day. Now the office looks way cleaner and tidier. I'm just too lazy to snap new pictures, I'll do it somewhere in the near future. FYI, this is called procrastinate, I'm really good at that, so deal with it! Ha ha!

Creative Juice\Sil is an ad agency in Plaza Damansara. The accounts for the agency are Packet One, RHB, Mandarin Oriental, F&N Diaries, Sothys, etc. It is not a very big company and that's what makes it so special.

The company consists of nearly 30 employees. The bosses are really nice and friendly. The people working here are wacky and fun. The office isn't very big, so everybody knows everybody and people here actually talk to each other! Nobody here is snobbish or rude to one another. It is a really a great place to work at.

The servicng team I was assigned to is P1 (Packet One Network). The Account Director of the team is Tasha and she is the nicest supervisor ever. The Account Manager is Syah and she is the funniest and craziest person you can ever find. Then there is Mira she is really sweet, helpful and she is our very own 'Paris Hilton'. And Nigel Nigel is just Nigel, the stoned-face-act-cool-and-secretive metrosexual. We all work hard and closely to ensure that the work is done and we can all go home by 7pm. Leaving at 5.30pm is impossible and 6.30pm is considered half day. Yes! That's advertising for you!

The creative team is just a wacky bunch of people, who have great ideas and are brilliant. There is the Copywriter - Mel, Designer - Zahriel and Visualizer - Nadz. The rest who works with the team are our one and only Art Director - Douglas (aka Chocoholic & Chicken Killer), Creative Director - Jo, Semi Intern - Joshua and FA Artists - Esten.

Working at an ad agency can be really stressful and tiring but at the same time you have loads of fun. We have our internal jokes, nicknames for each other and weird-ass acronyms and words.

I'm just an intern now, if I had a chance, I would want to work here again after I graduate. My advice for those aspired to go into the advertising industry is to remember that the motto is to work hard and play hard, always remember that shit happens and never to take things personally.

Serious shit. This is my don't-know-how-many-umpteenth-time blog. Yes, I had some and I deleted some, lost some and forgot some. But this time, it's for real, it's permanent and it's active! At least I hope...

I am not a great writer, but I like to talk and bla~ a lot. So why not output my thoughts here, than terrorize my bf's or mom's or friends' eardrums. I think my close friends, bf and mom would be please about this.

Alright here's the deal, my blog is mainly about myself (ha ha! not that I am that self absorbed) and things I encounter on a daily basis. This blog is not meant for the masses or probably not for anyone even. The purpose of this blog is not for the greater good or for a good cause. This blog is just about a Malaysian Girl that probably should get her butt off the chair and eyes away from her laptop to go to the outdoors and see the world! And I think a lot of people would agree with me that there are a lot of people like me out there.

Topics to expect from this blog are cupcakes, baking, food, dancing, friendship, love, advertising, random stuff, bla (aka nonsense), etc.

Happy reading!
Cheers!
