Goodbye March 2010!

I just realized that I have not blog for like sooooooo long. So long that the dust on my windows are thicker than my textbooks. I have plenty to say but I have yet the motivation to write. Well, I have a pretty routine and dull life at the moment. College life is well..usual boring stuffs with assignments piling up and tests every now and then. I am graduating soon, I think. In another 12 months I will be out from this uncool college to start another phase of my life - WORKING world.

Actually, my assignments ain't exactly piling up because I started mine earlier. Like really early so I don't have to rush. I still have time to play Country Story study my subjects like the really crucial and important Business Law II. I would say this semester is rather alright though the pressure to excel is always there, like duh. I did get all emotional once in awhile when I think I couldn't do my assignments when reality is..I can do it with no issues. I guess I should learn how to rest in Him sometimes. When I get all grumpy and tired, my brain decided to give up. Seriously need to recharge during my semester break. Was thinking of destressing in Singapore with my cousins. Maybe I should manja my Grandma a bit so she will pay for my tickets to Singapore.

A lot of people asked me about my plans after graduation. I did have a few plans in my head. Whether it will become true or not is another issue. I have plenty to think about my future though my main focus is to get my ass up to Summa Cum Laude.It's rather hard to achieve such achievements in just merely a year. I did my best to get Cum Laude and I managed to get it. Complications from previous semester threw me down to a normal certificate. I am still working my buttocks off to achieve it again one more time till I finished my studies next April. Talking about my future, I have two choices - to work in the Business field or Communication field. Pros and cons of mine kicked in. I even have a list of pros and cons in both fields. So hard to make a decision to please me..I shall continue praying for the best. He has already set a path for me. I guess I will have to work my way up and see what He has for me.

As for my family, I bet they are doing alright. I should really call my Mom later. I kinda miss home though sometimes I feel reluctant to be home. I enjoy being alone sometimes. I definitely do not enjoy the commotion at home when I am back. It's no fun to see faces when I am home. To top it up, I am not exactly close with my sister. She is too proud of herself that I can hardly see her nose. Sisters rivalry ain't fun. But then again, I enjoy having my baby sister around. She cheers me up for sure. Many people are shocked to find out that my sister has Down Syndrome. Whatever it is, I am proud of my sister though she can be a little pain in my buttock. I love her still. Mom told me that my Dad is in Doha for projects because Dubai, as on newspapers, ain't doing so well. All these things made me even want to strive harder to provide my family a better life. I won't want my parents to work hard when they grow old. I really do want them to just travel around the world and enjoy their lives with me providing them instead of them. Gosh..when will I be able to do so? I am still thankful that I have a great family though sometimes we do not really have the same mentality.

As for my love life, I am doing awesomely well with 20 cents. Occasionally we do have our share fair of arguments but we made sure we talked about it and we are alright again. It's a norm for couples to fight. If we don't, there is something very wrong with us. Kan? But I am really grateful to have him in my life. He definitely tolerated with my shits and my habits. I have a lot of bad habits. He knows me well enough to tolerate. And he accept my flaws. And I did the same to him. It's all about give and take in a relationship. I am quite proud to say we have a healthy relationship. Marriage? Not so soon la..people should stop asking me when I am getting marry. I will announce to the world wide world when I am actually getting marry. Lol. And and 20 cents' family and friends are awesome too. I think they accepted me as part of them. Ok..I think I am accepted. Sometimes I am not so sure but I guess I am. Lol..His family and friends are one of the greatest people I met. So I guess so far so good..no issue in that department.

My relationship with Him has been great and still doing great. Oohh..I am getting baptized this Easter. I am looking forward to it though immersion wasn't exactly my first option. Anyway, I am still really excited to be baptized. I witnessed it last year and it's my turn this year. And I finally found the courage to tell my Mom. Surprisingly she is quite open-minded about it and even suggested that my baby sister should be baptized for it. Glory to God! I am soooooo looking forward to this Sunday :)

Just came back from dinner with my housemate and her boyfriend. Pretty awesome dinner we had in Kim Gary with us going through some horror stories and rather creepy ones. I shall not fear those as I have Him with me. I think I am very contented with my life at the moment. I have an education which I hope I will finish by April 2011. I have a great family. I have a great boyfriend. I have great friends. I have food and shelter. I pretty much have everything..though I do not mind people giving me some kitchen appliances.

I am very thankful for who I am and what I have.

I Am Featured In A Swedish Ads!



Just to let everyone know that I am featured in this Swedish ads. I can know speak Swedish too :)

Don't Know What To Say La..

It's one of those days that I could not think of any nice titles to go with this post. It's 1am here and I am still awake. Must be the green tea eh? And it's raining now. Double FML. My clothes are outside and it's still wet. Whatever ler..let it drenched with rain water and it will be dry up by tomorrow anyway. The hot, hot sun will dry it up for me.

I just realized not long ago that I misplaced my Starbucks planner in college. I went all paranoid and nervous that I might lose it because all my assignments and fee receipts are inside. I will die without it. Thank God that my lecturer kept it for me in the admin counter but I am still paranoid. It is no fun when anxiety kicks in. I get all stressed up when I am anxious. No fun at all. I freaking need my planner! I shall retrieve it tomorrow, I shall remember to take it..

I had an awesome weekend with 20 cents and my friends. I am pretty much productive and occupied last weekend. It's good news, alright. Now I am back in classes everyday mode. Ain't fun at all. I can't wait for weekend already though it's like Tuesday now. Deng!Assignments to pass up and cases to study as well as more readings for my Law paper before I start my hardcore assignment given like last week. Argh..I can feel the stress building in my cells already!

Since my planner was away for the weekend, I can't do my work at all.Sigh..and I was so enthusiastic to start ALL my assignments but now the fire just dimmed. I was surfing around looking for clothes and BB Cream. I have been going crazy about BB Cream lately because of its effectiveness. I used it last weekend. The differences on my face is drastic sial. I have plenty of pimples and flaws on my face. I used it and I look good. Not boasting ok? But seriously I look better with it. :) And I know where to restock too. Hehehehe... I should really start using some light make ups on my face. I need the practices before I actually need in working world like real soon. Kan?

I have so much to do in my list but I have yet much time to complete it. I should really follow it. Wait..I should unpack all my bags. 20 cents has been nagging me about not unpacking since I moved into the new place. I should really listen to him, I think. I shall do it instead of watching TVB drama during my free time. I should really do what is necessary. Lol..I hate telling myself what to do because I know I won't follow it. Lol. I must really write down a list so I will follow.

I wanted to sleep but my housemate is using hairdryer at wee hour in the hall. And my room is next to the hall. I can't sleep at all. Talking about consideration, some of my housemates do not have it. FML. I sometimes hope that they understand what I am going through staying in this room. I can hear ALL noises from the roads and everywhere in the house. It sucks to be me. When I need to rest, there are just noises. Sigh..

I need to sleep already. I am freaking tired. I need my beauty sleep!

Congratulation Mr and Mrs Chong Wei Shin!

First of all..

CONGRATULATIONS WEI SHIN & FLOR!

Thanks for inviting me to witness the adventure of your life. And I didn't bocor rahsia until that night. Lol.

Anyway, the boyfriend and me and a few friends were invited by Wei Shin to witness the proposal to Florence last Friday. Plans were made and it took place in Courtyard Garden, Damansara. Dinner was so-so but the dessert was great because Wei Shin proposed to Florence.


Courtyard Garden


Appetizers


Bread and cheese, I think


Mushroom Soup


Aglia Olio Pasta


Thai Seafood


Baked Cheese Cake with Strawberry Sauce


One of the rare moments we have pictures together

Actually, I also don't know how to elaborate the moment of their lives lo. This is my first time witnessing a proposal. I just went there makan, chit chat and whipped my camera out when I was given the cue. All I ever remember was what Florence did to the "recycled" bill and what she said. She said to Wei Shin..

"Lei mo wan go la" means Don't play me la..

Then, we snapped pictures and videos. And then, they are engaged. Fuhhh..susah nak elaborate ler. All I knew was it was so exciting and happy. Happiness and love was in the air. Can see the cupids shooting arrows and heart shapes bubbles. Hahahaha..


"Will you marry me?" bill


Shocked - "Lei Mou Wan Ngo La"


Kneeling and proposing!


Yes!


Masukkan cincin :)


They are engaged!


Awwww...

This means I have plenty of weddings to attend already. Time to save for angpows. Hehehehe..

More Food Pictures!

I haven't been blogging much about food. That's because I rarely have good food and I am rarely out with my camera. Damn..I should really make use of my camera again. I miss taking pictures of good food.

I did manage to snap some food pictures with my old, unclear phone. And I took some pictures from Florence during our makan-makan ala BB trip to Mid Valley/The Gardens.

Shinlin in Mid Valley/The Gardens
We had Mee Sua which I love like mad but hated the oyster because it tasted like mucus. It's nice to eat when it's damn hot and boiling because it losses its "OOMPH" when it gets cold. The noodles with the coriander and some vinegar is a perfect combo for a bowl of hot piping Mee Sua.


Love Mee Sua!

Soya Bean with Yu Tiao also in Mid Valley/The Gardens
I was rather full but I persuaded 2o cents to get the RM3.90 set of hot soya bean drink with yu tiao. I drank the soya bean and he ate the yu tiao. Pretty awesome because it reminds me of some sort of Hong Kong movies where they drink hot soya bean and eat yu tiao while waiting for sunrise. I know..I have awesome imagination. Pretty good deal and snacks from this place..


Hot piping Soya Bean and Yu Tiao


Durian, Cempedak and Mango Puffs
For durian lovers, this awesome cream puffs are just for you but definitely not me because I hate durians. The boyfriend and kawan-kawan love it so I post up the pictures la. I only took Cempedak and Mango because those are like the only cream puffs I would enjoy. Say NO to durians! The cream puffs surprisingly are good and you can feel every inch of the real flesh from the fruits with fattening cream melting all over your mouth. See the pictures for yourself la..no joke one ok?


The cream puffs


Durian one


Cempedak

Sushi in Asia Cafe
After seeing people eating sushi and sashimi in AC for years, I have not try it until the other day. I was out with 20 cents and we decided to makan in AC. It was late dinner because we had class earlier. So after our main courses, we decided to try a plate of sushi from this sushi bar. It was super awesome. The salmon was fresh and I think I am loving ebiko already. I used to hate it because it's damn cruel to kill those tiny little fish that ain't born yet. Worth my money for sure :)


Love these sushis!


Look at those overflowing ebiko

Handmade Pork Burger by ME
Made some pork burgers for 20 cents and my housemates. It was awesome like what turf because I made it from scratch. I marinate it and I shape it and all. I did everything ALL by myself. Verdict? It was good and I get praises from everyone. I can't wait to cook again!


Pork Burger


Yummy!


Made by me!

I am gonna use my camera more often to blog more about food. I miss blogging about food and make people drool on their keyboards when they are reading my blog. Hahaha..

Karaoke Session with #Lala Gang

It has been more than a year since I went karaoke with the #Lala Gang. The other day, they invited me to go along since we had no class the very next day except for Lala, of course. He had class in the afternoon but we went for a long, crazy karaoke session from 11pm till 4am. That would be FIVE freaking hours of singing and going mad!


98 Degrees!


The songs we selected


At the beginning..


Warming up..


Siew Pheng and Mei Ling


The silly ones.

Off we went in TWO cars. There were 11 of us in a huge room. We ordered overly sweet drinks including Jasmine Tea and Blueberry Kampai. I did sneak in a small bottle of mineral water because I cannot drink sweet drinks when I sing. I am so classy like what turf. These karaoke joints purposely give their patrons overly sweet drinks so we will order more drinks. Students being students will not get cheated by such tricks. Hahaha..


Yucky sweet drinks..


with Mei Ling


Girls being girls


Used my camera to camwhore the whole night


Lala looked tulan what turf


The SS ones sitting on top of the couch.

Fortunately, this time I got kakis to sing English songs with me. I don't know Chinese at all so singing in Chinese is like me discovering UFO. Managed to sing my favorite old school The Carpenters songs - Superstar and Jambalaya. And and I am in love with Adam Lambert's Time For Miracles. If only they have Train's Hey Soul Sister, I will belt it out until the karaoke joint closed.


YeeKit, Wai Keng and Siew Pheng


Dont ask me?


Myself with Wai Keng and Siew Pheng


with the girls


The End.

We did sing until 4am. Like seriously..the zombie us went back home and sleep till the sun sets the next day. Lol.

I can't wait for the next session already!

Belated Belated Chinese New Year 2010

Chinese New Year was like last month and I have yet to blog about it. I was busy, still busy with assignments and tests. Now that I have time because I am sick on bed skipping classes. Might as well I use this time to blog and finish up my assignments before I submit everything in April.

I was back in Ipoh on the third day of CNY. The first thing I did was obviously meeting up with my friends. Had lunch with my kawan-kawan in Tai Shu Keuk and then proceeded to my house for bai lin. Just a few of us chatting, hanging out in my place. It was good catching up with the girls and of course, Avinesh. He is part of us girls so can consider him as a girl la. My ji mui. What turf!

The next day, a few of us - Ting, Gohzzy and Avi went to Celine's place for dinner and some refreshments. It has been so long since I last saw Celine. We went to her house for some "drinks" and gambling. I touched neither because I am so classy like what turf. I don't drink nor gamble. Period.


I miss this Kancil already!

Tan Tzy Tzy came to my house with the boys and Lau Ting Ting as well as Chia Ling the next day to bai lin. All we ever did during Chinese New Year was drinking Shandy, eating plenty of cookies and gamble. What's Chinese New Year without all these kan?


Jellies made by Mom for Ting

I miss everyone already!

There was even a reunion with some of friends from primary school. No picture was taken though. Gosh, I miss everyone already. I can't wait for the next Chinese New Year!

I have nothing much to write. Pictures say it all. I post pictures only la..
