Happy New Year!!

It's the end of year 2009. It has been a really really long road. Lotsa weepings, lotsa moanings, lotsa dramas.

But one great thing that happened this year, and it only comes once in a lifetime was the National Service camp. That was one hell of a good experience.

I pretty much have a good feeling that year 2010 would be a better year. Way way better than this year. Resolutions? Stop weeping and moaning for whatever reason it is. And to have more part time jobs for extra pocket money! *Hint to the boss*

Another thing is, i know that he'll be there for me. At least i know someone is there to stay. Thanks boo for all the times that you're there listening to all my pathetic stories. Hearing me weeping away like a cry baby and yet you're still able to laugh them off. urgh. Yes you're cute. But you're not when you laugh at my shittiest moment ever. hmph!

One thing i know that i'm gonna start things from scratch this new decade. I'm gonna slowly take my time to pick up those pieces of my heart and put them into one again. I'll learn to crawl, and then i'll learn to walk. When i get to walk, i'll start to run till i can jump and fly. Step by step, that's all it takes. And oh yes, the so-not-smart brain of mind, need to do lotsa thinkings before doing any preaching. I'm going to be a strong girl. No more low self-esteem i hope. =)

Anyway, i'm sorry for not replying all the new year messages. Too many to reply, and was celebrating with the family. Thanks for all the wishes tho and i shall make mine here too.

So to all the homo sapiens in this world, young or old, tall or short, fat or thin, big or small, long or short, ( don't think otherwise! ) i just wanna wish each and everyone of you a very happy new year! May the year of 2010 brings you great health and wealth and all the good things come rolling! Don't dwell on the past, look into the future. If i could put my past aside and save it in a space called 'The Most Happiest yet Shittiest Memories Ever', why can't you too?

Enjoy while you can. Because when the world ends, all of us will die together. If 2012 is true, we only have 2 freaking years to go! So better party hard but be safe! =)

Sometimes it's ok to break the rules a lil. Have fun!!

It's time to put a full stop to all the bullshits.

New Zealand Natural 30% promo!

It's the 30th of the month! New Zealand Natural is having their 30:30 promo whereby 30% off is given to all Take Home Packs, regular and large only. But too bad for me la. Not going anywhere today. So you guys enjoy the naturally-sweetened premium ice cream from 'The Land of The Long White Cloud!'. (I just got to know that it means 'New Zealand' translated from the indigenous Maori language. =)) Hint hint : I want Cookies & Cream! =P

*salivates. drools.*

I just realized that it's been quite a while since i last ate ice cream. Oh wait, i had Gelato Fruity last weekend. haha. But fattening ice cream always taste better! =P

Finally i'm almost done with my shopping spree! Sales is coming to an end and got myself quite a number of pieces for CNY to be exact. Plus Cotton On was having their 50% sales on selected items yesterday and i must say i was pretty lucky to have that last 2 pieces of shorts with size 6! The rest were size 10 and above. You see, shorts nowadays are kinda expensive too. Of all the shops i went, and mostly were at least RM50 for a pair of shorts wtf. Just chip in another RM10 or 20 can get a pair of nice long jeans already. Grrr. haha. I sounded kiam sap i know. But yesterday, i got that 2 pair of shorts for only RM75! And one tank top for only RM15! I wanted it long time ago, but it was RM39. So i thot it wasn't that worth it la RM39 for a tank top. Since they mark down till RM15 i just grab it. hehe. I just have this thing for tank tops la kay. I couldn't count with my fingers already how many i have in my cupboard. Toes also tak cukup! =D

One more day to year 2010! Hopefully it'll be a better year. I know it will.

Miss all the college mates!! (:

..........

I dreamt about you again last night

I can no longer bear the pain.

You're like a drug. Enough said.

The other day about 20+ of us went to Michelle's house for christmas lunch party. Her aunty's a nice and sporting person, cooked really delicious yummy food and she gave us present for each and everyone which is a mug. Some of us opened, and the mugs are just normal mugs, mostly colorful and animal printings but when i opened mine, i was stoned. Because so happen mine was a picture of orange daisy. Like this.

Reminiscing. again.

And then today, we went for dinner at the grands' place. And then Aunty Diana and Uncle KK who just came back from Las Vegas, bought quite a number of stuffs from designer boutiques. They came back with handbags from Coach and Kenneth Cole because its way cheaper to shop for branded stuffs there compared to Malaysia. Ever wonder why cars and branded stuffs are so darn expensive here compared to the U.S after all the taxes and margins? That's because in the U.S, their medical expenses are superbly high as in 5 times! Got pros and cons la. So, eventually they got me a long sleeve black tee which costs only $9 and i was stoned again when i saw the brand.

It's Ralph Lauren!

If you ever wonder why i'm always bragging or so gung-ho about orange daisies and Ralph Lauren products, that is because of my past story. He got me orange daisies for Valentines and Ralph Lauren perfume for my birthday and i love them to bits! Feel free to read the pathetic story of mine here. hah! So i was pretty much asking myself, of all mugs, and since they are mostly colouful ones with animal printings, why mines an extraordinary one? And of all flowers, why daisy? And why exactly the same color; orange? And then of all brands, why Ralph Lauren? Coincidence? I don't really know. You see, when i ask myself all these questions, i can literally go berserk. And that's what always happen to me like all the time. Small little things always remind me of him. Sadness. sigh.

Anyway, guess what my mum got?

A leather handbag from Kenneth Cole that costs only $179! View the website here.

What i love most about it is this.

I don't know what to call it so i call it the gold plate. Because it's heavy too! lol.

After dinner today, had sort of like a heart to heart talk with the Uncle KK. He was asking me about boyfriends and stuffs, and obviously i did not tell him anything la. Cause everyone in the family pretty much thought that i'm having a bf since my mum told them that i have a 26 years old bf. Oh well, that's the past. So my uncle said something that straight away got into my senses. He told me that life is too short to worry about small details. And so i thought. Why am i always worry about stuffs? I'm just a worry person i guess?

Maybe i shall not worry about anything then. Just maybe.

And the uncle promised to bring me to the U.S to shop! Yeay! But obviously not so soon. >:(

...............

Since you're happy this way

Why can't i be happy too?

Clubbing for the first time left me unspoken.

I know this sounds weird and embarrassing but yes, it's my first time going to club. hehe. OPERA was having its soft launching today so there's free flow of drinks from 8-10pm. But i tell you this club is really one sad case. Super sad. Maybe there's free flow of drinks la, so everyone's like crazy over it. It was extremely hot and humid AND worse of all, no dance floor. Sucky musics too. hah!

View the overall review here. Make sure you have balls to read it. XD

Then after that everyone kindda like headed to CocoBanana, coz' it just situated right opposite of Opera. Maybe it was too early, so there wasn't much people. Same thing, sucky live bands. lol. And mostly elderly ones. haha. And then we went to Helo Bali, it's totally empty because it was only bout 11. Then we went to republic, not too bad la. At least the songs the DJ played were nice. Sat down, had some drinks and started dancing. Wanted to go to Mist, but extremely jammed so plan cancelled. And then sneaked into MOS at 12. That was the bomb of the night. At least the dance floor, really looked like dance floor. lol. Ok wait, looks more like some roller skating ring but who cares as long as we got a big space to dance. =P And the crowd was just nice. Not too empty, and not too crowded. =) Just that you can't really find hot chics and cute hunks on days like that.

So basically we went into 5 clubs in a night at Sunway. Crazy ain't? But kinda fun. At first i felt rather out of place and didn't know what to expect but slowly got the hang of it and started enjoying. Now only i know why he loves clubbing so much.

This pic was taken before i drank yet my face already looked so red. But the main thing of it is that particular pair of earrings! They always make me feel comfortable somehow. Much loved!

............

Small gifts like that always made my day

Though you're not here

But i can still feel your presence

No doubt that i miss you loads.

Happy Winter Solstice!

This is the time of the year again where we, Chinese celebrate the Winter Solstice Festival or better known as Dong Zhi whereby we rolled glutinous rice balls, the tang yuens the night before. I always remember my mum said that this festival falls on every 22nd of December, 3 days before Christmas. And it marks the passing of the harshest part of winter when the dark hours of night exceed daylight by the longest margin, which means that spring is around the corner.

The tang yuen symbolized family unity and that the rounder the glutinous rice ball, the stronger the ties were. So this is the time where all the family members will come back and unite.

Some of the glutinous rice balls will have fillings in them such as powdered peanuts and black sesame but my family will always prefer the traditional ones--plain and they only come in white and pink. I don't really fancy eating filled glutinous rice balls with the sweet soup.

They taste so yummy with the sweet soup--combination of pandan leaves, ginger and palm sugar. Eating glutinous rice balls also means that you've grown a year older. Haha. So am i 19 years old now? =)

Happy eating those tang yuens yah!

To the mischievious one.

Have fun in Kuching yah boy boy!! Jie jie miss you la. =)

Have a safe trip!

*cuddles*

Saw his two front teeth? They pretty much remind me of the nursery rhyme; "All i want for Christmas is my two front teeth, my two front teeth, see my two front teeth!"

Off to slumber with tear-stained cheeks.

Period. Ferk.

Nitey night night.

...........

All i want for Christmas

is YOU.

10 more days to Christmas!

I'm back! For the last 2 days i was in my aunt's house helping her to make cupcakes and chocolates for her Christmas orders. Tho it takes quite a while but i'll still define it in one word-FUN. No doubt that i love love love cupcakes and chocolates. Who doesn't? =P But so heart-sick when i see my 9 months-old baby cousin fall sick. He was sulking the whole day with his mummy and she has tonnes of things to do. Poor boy. Get well soon k?

A total of 200+ cupcakes to decorate.

This is only a part of it.

Chocolate hampers!! =D

Then dad came to pick me up today. All the way from Damansara to Cheras took bout an hour plus. Extremely jammed today. And 'thanks' to those police men. They are the ones that cause the traffic to be even worse. ****. All the way i was listening to the radio, with all the sad songs playing. And it was drizzling. All i did was staring out the window, looking at those droplets of rain and let my mind wander to the past. again. As usual tears dwell in my eyes till i could not answer to the questions my dad was asking. Sorry.

I know you're doing great out there without me. All the best to ya and take care. :)

Someone once told me that you have to choose

What you win or lose

You can't have everything

Don't cha take chances

Might feel the pain

Don't cha love in pain

Cause love won't set you free

I could stand by the side

And watch this life pass me by

So unhappy

But safe as could be

So what if it hurts me?

So what if i break down?

So what if this world just throws me off the edge

My feet run out the ground

I gotta find my place

I wanna hear my sound

Don't care about all the pain infront of me

I'm just trying to be happy, yeah

Just wanna be happy, yeah

Holding on tighly

Just can't let it go

Just trying to play my role

Slowly disappear

All these days i feel like they're the same

Just different faces, different names

Get me outta here

I can't stand by your side, ohh no

Watch this life pass me by, pass me by

So many terms that i can't see

Like i'm a stranger on this road

But don't say victim

Don't say anything

So what if it hurts me?

So what if i break down?

So what if this world just throws me off the edge

My feet run out the ground

I gotta find my place

I wanna hear my sound

Don't care about all the pain infront of me

I'm just trying to be happy, yeah

Just wanna be happy, yeah

Another great song from Leona Lewis. She's one heck of a good singer. Pretty too! hehe. Often times her songs kinda like reflect the story of my life. Especially Yesterday. :)

Since next year would be a bad year for me, might as well i live happily in this remaining of 16 days.

....................

I remember every word you said

And they keep spinning in my head

I'm sorry

I keep forgetting to forget about you.

Short update:

Business was HELL. Essay part was easy, but MCQ was ridiculously difficult. Imagine, one question of MCQ carries 4 marks. And 5 VERY closely related answers to choose from. All the 20 questions are really nerve-wracking! Where else the essay part carries ONLY 20 marks. sighs. There goes my A. Fly~

Next exam is on Friday. Computing Essential and Computing Studies. I think i accidentally mixed the notes for these two subjects because they are quite similar. great.

Tips for CE :

Essay:

• Chap 8 - Intranets and extranets.
• Chap 9 - Word robot, desktop publish and word processing.
• Chap 10 - Protect environment, ergonomics.

Good luck!

Me want sem break!!! =D

.........................

Your arms were my castle, your heart was my sky

The good and the bad times we've been through them all

I still feel your touch in my dreams

I don't know why but without you it's hard to survive.

Short update :

pp/s : Business tomorrow. Is sniper good enough? >.<

Good luck peeps!

............

I dropped a tear in the ocean

The day you find it is the day i'll stop missing you.

A great way to end a day.

Yesterday was another great day. Went to college in the morning to have group study with the bunch of peeps and then head to Starbucks in Leisure Mall to get a cup of Mocha Praline Frap and another nail polish from Elianto. No idea why lately i'm obsessed with nail polish. Even my cousin baby loves to play with my turquoise-ish looking toe nails. haha.

And then evening came, picked mum up from Putra Heights and we headed to Starhill first with the intention to book 4 places for supper at Jogoya to celebrate parents wedding anniversary which falls on the 8th of Dec. But little did we know that the promotion is only for Mondays to Thursdays. So the cravings for Japanese buffet went crashing down but mum promised to bring us there right after my finals. *woots* So after that we walked to Pavilion, and boy i tell you the Christmas decoration is so awesome. Full with colorful huge Christmas trees and reindeers.

*Lovely!*

And then the first stop was Roxy and Quicksilver because it's the 1 Day Special Friends and Family SALE! 50% on all items from 1pm onwards. Enter by invitation through SMS or member card. But i was a lil upset because i could not get those tank tops that i was eyeing for so long because the fact that i reached there about 6 something and only L and XL sizes left. pfffft. Then again, we got a few stuffs. Surprisingly mum got the most. She was trying to blend herself in with teen's stuffs i supposed. See i told you my mum is hawt. haha. wtf. =P

Mine's a purse and that jeans cloth file. Bro's one are the whole stack of socks and wallet. The remaining 3 items are mum's!! hahaha. Total bill came up to about RM320. Fuuh, first time spend so much on a brand that i'm not really a big fan of. =P

Then came dinner time. Since we couldn't eat at Jogoya, we decided to have our Japanese cuisine in Ichiban Boshi. Yes, my family is a big fan of Japanese food. hehe. I used to say that Sushi Zanmai is way better than Sushi King. Like duh, it's damn obvious. But now i dare to say that Ichiban Boshi is way way better than Sushi Zanmai. *claps claps* And the reason is that the portions are way bigger than that of Zanmai's, the ambience is also quite cozy and comfortable with a very long kaiten belt laden with sushi, and there is a more variety in the menu compared to Sushi Zanmai. And perhaps one of the main attraction is the demonstration of buckwheat noodles that is visible from the outside. Just like the one in Dragon-i. And talking about Dragon-i i missed the one in Curve together with Shin. :)

*Chicken Katsu Cheese Gozen-RM22.90*

-Chicken cutlet with cheese, salmon sashimi, rice, miso soup and fruits.-

The chicken cutlet really tender and juicy and it goes so well with the plum sauce.

*Soba & Unadon Wazen-RM 22.90*

-Cold buckwheat noodles, mini BBQ eel, rice bowl, appetizers and fruits.-

This particular set is worth ordering because the plate of cold noodles and that bowl of rice with unagi can really make you full. buuurppp. And it's so amazingly delicious.

*Sukiyaki Gozen-RM26.90*

-Claypot beef/chicken with assorted vegetables, cold noodles, salmon sashimi, appetizers, miso soup, rice and fruits.-

This set of sukiyaki taste way better because it is not as salty as the one in Zanmai. Plus, there's an additional of noodles, salmon sashimi, miso soup and fruits. Yummy.

*The oh-so-thick-slices of salmon sashimi*

-salivates-

They are quite generous with the portions and the service is quite pleasant. Total bill was RM105 which is worth paying for because it comes to an average of RM25 per person. (Fyi my family consists of 4.) I can bet that you'll go home with a fulfilled stomach and even dreams about it at night while you sleep. That sensation in your stomach is definitely worth remembering. Indeed i was a satisfied patron. =D

Address:

All i wanted was to be wanted

Wish i could go back and tell myself what i know now.

Thank you for putting a smile on my face.

Finally had the time to really update my blog. Here are some flashbacks of what happened last week.

I would say last Thursday was one of the fun day in the month of November. During the day we had our Introduction to Business assignment whereby every group has to set up their own booth and sell stuffs. Our group's name was Unidlife, and we sell customized t-shirts. As in origami customized t-shirts. So the few days before that all of us had to fold the origami t-shirts and it came to my surprise that even guys could fold such stuffs. I mean, patience and time needed and these guys really had the heart to fold 'em. Not bad huh.

Rules :

• We were only allowed to sell fake stuffs, either in 2D or 3D.
• Selling time from 1pm-3pm.
• Customers were given fake money to shop around and gave comments.
• Marks were given based on group's performance and creativeness.

Sounds interesting isn't it?

*The group members*

(Jo, Panda, Casey, Frederick, June, Angeline and Zaza)

*T-shirts of all sizes*

*Frederick*

*Jackie was amazed with our creations. lol*

*Sample*

*Desserts from Ashwin's group*

*Sushi from Louis's group*

*Robots from Super Heroes group*

And other groups were pretty creative as well. From fishballs to satays to dresses to plasma tv. lol.

*Lecturer : Mr.Tomi*

Can't wait for our marks! XD

........

Then came night time. Went out for steamboat with high school mates to celebrate Keen Pong's birthday. Miss them so much! =D

*With Woon Chin, Chee Wei, Suet Yin and the bday boy*

When is our next round? hehe.

After that went straight to Station 1 to countdown for Mun Leong's birthday. Stayed there till like 12.30 am. Leong was seriously damn funny when he's drunk. *shakes head*

*Happy birthday*

*With Anne, Sharon, Leong and Woon Chin*

-Thank you for the great day peeps!-

Loves!

......

Then i spent the whole weekend in Aunt Lynnda's house. Finally watched finish the drama Beyond the Realm of Conscience. Very addictive drama but i find the ending a bit hanging tho. =P And then Monday came, and got a pleasant surprise from Ashwin.

*Cupcakes from CupcakeChic*

I love cupcakes! And they're all of different flavours. =D

Thank you! But you memang kantoi on that day. *bueks*

........

Last pic of the day.

Hehe. No offence but my mum is hawt that's why my dad loves her. XD

p/s : All the best for MS exam tomorrow! =D

..........

The moon shines so bright tonight

I can't help myself from missing you hunz.

Short update:

May your soul rest in peace.

God bless.

- Deepest condolence to Uncle Alvin and family -

*hugs*

Why does it always take a long time to actually realize how important life is? Why does it take so long to actually realize who is the one we appreciate most? Why do we need 2012 to warn us about the world is going to end soon, and sooner or later we will leave each other?

"The greatest compliment to someone who has passed, is to live your life and keep their memory alive."

...............

Can anyone define what's life?
