Stuck in the past

2011-06-05T12:34:00.000+08:00

It's been ages since I updated this blog. Even the christmas ornaments wallpaper remains half a year after the celebration. I like the wallpaper... maybe I'll change it after this year's christmas. Such a lazy bum. : D

Today I turn 24. Gee... I feel old. Felt like I haven't achieved much in life the way I wanted it to be a decade ago.

Back then, I wanted:

To work as an executive in a company or to become a marine biologist. Oh, I've always wanted to become a journalist~! Totally random.
To travel the world and see other people's culture, architecture and art. Also to eat good food all around the world.
To cut off fat from waist, arm, leg, etc...

Point #1, I'm not saying that I hate my job. It's just I never thought of becoming a teacher but now that I am, I can't lie and say that there are absolutely nothing about it that I like. Sure, we all have certain things in our job that we hate, right? Surely there are.

Point #2, Yes, I've been to other countries apart from home but I haven't gone to the places I really wanted like Japan, France (maybe watch Roland Garros? hohoho), Spain, New York, South Korea, London, etc... Relying on my current salary would mean I'd have to starve once I get there. Boo hoo...

Point #3, Ermm... let's not discuss this.

But I'm not a total wreck, I am thankful that I:

Have a job to pay the bills and have fun (but not to travel! Maybe I'd have to sell my kidney just so I can get my bum to France like that kid in China who sold his kidney to buy an iPad).
Mostly, at 24, I'm grateful that I still have the love of my family and friends.

p/s: last night I found out that my SPP interview is this Wednesday. Wow... what a great bday present. Just great. I haven't done my reading yet~! Grrr...

Perfect Nightmare

2011-03-29T10:53:00.000+08:00

I can't really recall my past nightmares but this morning's nightmare err, morningmare was very disturbing for me.

I've been having several bad dreams 3 nights in a row. Damn... that can't be good.

I may be traumatized by the colour blue after the dream.

The setting was in our previous home. A quarters where my dad used to work before he retired. The house was blue in colour.

I was there with two of my loved ones and apparently there's a zombie outbreak. The difference is, the zombies weren't trying to eat you, they were killing people by breaking their neck. I can actually hear the sounds of neck breaking. That's the most scary thing. Let's not call them zombie, call them the neck breakers.

I was wearing a blue shirt and one of my loved ones was also wearing a blue shirt. The three of us tried to run away from the zombies that got into our house when the two sacrifices their lives for me to survive. I can see it vividly how the zombie broke their neck as I ran. I was soooooo sad when the lifeless body of my loved ones fall to the ground, hearts not beating.

As I was running, the neck breakers were trying to catch me but they were too slow. If anyone knew me, they'll know that I'm not much of a runner. I was so scared for the neck breakers made eerie sounds like, "Errgh..." and "aaarrgh..." much like zombies.

Before they could catch up to me, I woke up with a jerk. As I woke up, I can't help but wonder about my loved ones. I wanted to call but the clock shows 4.40am.

Anyway, my sister told me that when you have a bad dream, you should tell them to others so as to push all the bad luck away. Hohoho

Shuu bad luck, shuu~!

Please stop the night/morningmares... give me some happy dreams instead. : )

Of illusions and dreams

2011-03-29T07:37:00.000+08:00

I’ve been having weird dreams lately. Peculiar than déjà vu huhu…

You see, my daily working routine is waking up at 5.40am to boil some water for my bath. Hey, the water is ice cold okay~! Then after turning the fire on, I’d stagger back to bed and try to sleep until my second alarm rings at 5.50am. That’s when my day truly starts.

Yesterday, I did the old routine of switching off my 5.40 am alarm and got up to turn the fire on the stove to boil a kettle of water. Then I returned to bed and napped, waiting for my second alarm to ring. Sounds normal, right? Right???

I jerked in bed and realized I was just dreaming. I laughed as I realized what had just happened. It totally got me confused at first. My socks were still on and my bedroom door was still closed, tell tale signs that I didn’t got up and turned on the stove.

Seconds of laughing at myself, my alarm rang. A very interesting way of waking up, I guess.

Ain't it funny?

2011-02-18T18:22:00.002+08:00

Coincidences.

It fascinates me sometimes.

In the morning, my friend told me about a room for rent in a house where a 40 year old lady teacher lives.

In the afternoon, my cousin told me about a room for rent where a 40 year old lady teacher lives. My cousin’s friend was living in the room but moved out because she was transferred to her hometown.

5 minutes later, I went to wash my car in a car wash place. I saw a lady about a couple of years older than me. I can tell she was a teacher. I dunno… you just have this instinct if you saw someone and can tell that they’re a teacher huhu anyway, she had one glance at me and asked, “Are you a teacher?” hehe I dunno whether I’m glad or not that she recognized me as a teacher too.

She then said, “Are you from KK?” I nodded and answered, “Yes” simultaneously.

“Are you Jessie’s cousin?” Everything clicked and we laughed.

What a small world. To meet her there was so amusing to me. We chatted till her car was ready. She said the house where the room is at is complete with tv, washing machine, icebox, etc… And how when she was posted here, she was given a school so far from town the phone reception is zero.

She cried for two weeks before she accepted her fate. I am fortunate enough to be posted near town.

This story will have a great ending if I end up living in the house where a 40 year old lady teacher lives. I can’t go there when my daddy and mummy have already bought me an icebox, rice cooker and a stove in KK.

“It’s a shame…” I said as I exited the car wash. Had my cousin told me about this yesterday, I would’ve gone to live with the 40 year old lady teacher.

Oh great… a cursed escaped my mouth as I switched on the wiper.

I suppose it’s just a coincidence that it rains just after my car is squeaky clean, eh?

360 degrees of fireworks.

2011-02-04T14:03:00.000+08:00

Happy Chinese New Year everyone~! It's the year of the rabbit and guess who's born under this chinese zodiac? hohoho moi. Yours truly. Yeah you got the idea, it's me~! Huhuhu

I was at my aunty's house on CNY eve and at midnight, the sky was so beautiful~! If you look up the sky and turn 360 degrees, everything you see is fireworks hohoho I regretted not bringing a better camera. This is shot with my handphone.

My aunt's Chinese neighbour launched their firework and it was a first for me to watch fireworks directly below it. It was magical and my mouth just wouldn't shut as I gawked at the kaleidoscope of colors.

I hope this year will be a year full of wealth, good health, harmony and love all around. For me and for you.

This is quite a special year for me because this year marks the first ever year of working. I found out that I'll be teaching in Tambunan, about 1 1/4 hour from Donggongon. Lots of people can get there in 1 hour but not me hahaha I'm such a slow driver.

I hope the school can be reached by Mr. Grey Myvi hohoho hope there's a phone line, electric and water. I'm demanding too much eh?

I'm eager to know where I'm posted at hohoho heard the letters will arrive this monday.

Happy CNY everyone~!

It's short~!

2011-01-20T12:46:00.001+08:00

I've been having long hair for so long.

The reason I don't cut it shorter than my shoulder is because my hair is thick. I'm afraid it'll go berserk. Berserk as in it'll go really kembang. Think like a lion's mane. Hahaha

But after my sister cut her hair short, it looked nice. She has thick hair too, the only thing we have in common because we absolutely don't look alike~! Rest assure, we were not picked up from the drain or something. My sister looks like my mummy and I am a carbon copy of my daddy.

Because time is insanely ample these days thanks to me being not posted yet, I cut my own hair the other day. Not the whole thing, just my bangs (thank God~!)

Passpot photo hahaha complete with blue background. Heh, this one may look okay. Wait till you see the side view.

There it is~! I'm sorry the pictures aren't that good in quality. All of my pics in this post is taken from my phone camera. Bida betul rambut depan tu~!

At some point, I can see the resemblence between Abu Bakar Ellah and I wakakakakaka XD

Anyway, I decided to just cut my hair short to fo with the short bangs I marvelously created for myself. Went to a salloon in Tuaran because cutting hair in KK is soooooo pricey~!

Besides, I have a bad experience here in Donggongon. The guy looked professional but when he cut my hair, he used a flat iron (maybe because my hair is originally curly, he couldn't cut it evenly, but I don't know... I just ruined my bangs) AND my hair turned out butt ugly~! Damn that guy.

I wish I could hurt him with laser eyes.

Some hairstylists just don't get how to handle hair like mine. Another reason I don't fancy going to salloons. They just complaint that I've got really thick and curly hair and do a really bad job at it. They charge extra for that too~! I'd pay with a wide smile if they did a good job at it but sadly they don't.

A salloon in Tuaran knows how to handle my hair though... that's why I like it there. Well, I found out through Facebook that a schoolmate of mine opened a salloon in Tuaran but I couldn't find it so I just went to my regular salloon.

Freshly cut~! So short~!!! Hohoho

When I went out with Dudu to watch Gulliver's Travels last Monday. Short hair have a lot of perks... I use less shampoo and it dries faster huhu

I now have the greatest respect for barbers and hairstylists alike for your great talent of making people's hair pretty.

Happy New Year a day too late

2011-01-02T16:11:00.000+08:00

Hi~!

Happy New Year 2011. The first few days of the year will be a bit confusing yeah? We'll be writing the year as 1.2.2010 because we're still used to writing 2010. Hohoho (Or is it just me?)

What's your new year resolution? Huuu.... This year I ain't got no resolution. I know myself very well that I won't keep it. Like last year, I said I wanted to save a lot of money off my allowance but naaaaah, I couldn't do it. Too much temptation and I'm so weak hahaha

Talking about money, tomorrow is the start of school and if my studies weren't complete yet, I'd be worrying over going to class tomorrow. But, if I'm still a student, I'd be looking forward to the semester allowance instead of now, jobless and moneyless. *sigh sigh*

2010 for me was enlightening.

I lived in an apartment with 5 other BFFs.

Celebrated all of our birthdays like this huhu

Went mandi sungai with them when our apartment had no water supply hoho

I have a car of my own~! Last month he was dented but recovered quickly~!

Went to the Philippines with my friends.

I like this~!

Busy and sick of doing my action research and finally presenting it in front of panels and audience. Was very scared.

I must've talked like a ghost is trying to catch me. I tend to speak really fast when I'm nervous huhu

Made a record of the worst gambling lost in my gambling history.

Finished my 5 1/2 years of degree. (But still have not been posted)

Was touched with my students who cried when my practical was over.

A pic Britney edited

Got better at baking thanks to my sister.

Finally swam without any help from anything or anyone~!

Got addicted to SHINee wahaha

I hope 2011 will be a good year for all of us. May the new year grace us with love, good health and wealth.

Butter Cake recipe (Requested by Ninang)

2010-12-31T18:20:00.000+08:00

Baking cakes are fun~! This recipe is simple and it works.

Ingredients:

250g butter

1 ½ cup castor sugar (normal sugar is also ok)

4 eggs

4 cups of self-raising flour

1 cup of fresh milk

Vanilla essence

1/4 teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate

1/4 teaspoon of double raising powder

Filling (Whatever you want. Chocolate rice or choc chips, mix fruits, cherries, sultana,...)

How to:

1) Make sure butter is in room temperature (not too hard). Beat butter and sugar until fluffy.

2) Add egg one by one. (Put the first egg then beat. Put the second egg and then beat…you get the idea.)

3) Add vanilla essence (as much as you like. I always put 1 ½ teaspoon or more because I like the smell of vanilla)

4) 2 cups of self-raising flour and then fold using a metal spoon. Cease folding when flour is no longer visible. Do not over fold.

5) Add the fresh milk.

6) Add the remaining 2 cups of flour. Fold.

7) Add sodium bicarbonate and double raising powder. It’s ok if you don’t have any double raising powder (Put 1/2 teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate if you don't have double raising). The cake will still rise.

8) If you have some fillings, insert now and fold.

9) Heat the oven.

10) Bake at 170’ C for about 45 minutes.

11) Let me have a slice of your cake~!

P/S: If your filling is sweet, don't put in too much sugar. I like to put 1/2 to 3/4 cup of sugar depending on my filling. My sister once replaced fresh milk with susu cap junjung and she said it works just as well. I've never tried it though.

P/P/S: Good luck Ninang~!

P/P/P/S: HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011~! May we all be blessed with good health, love and wealth~!

Baked a cake

2010-12-24T13:25:00.000+08:00

Hohoho if you're not familiar with me, Angie is my first niece. She is my big brother's eldest child.

9 days ago, she turned 5.

Aton and Angie

Baked a cake for her~! My mum & sister thinks I've put too much sodium bicarbonate (self-raising powder) and that they can smell it in the cake but I smell nothing~! Huhuhu maybe my sense of smell is rotting.

Here she is helping me making the fondant.

Got tired and took an unexpected nap like this. She was really sleeping, I thought she was bluffing but bluff she didn't~!

The product~! Hohoho it looks messy. I feel sorry for Angie because she had to endure this creation as her birthday cake.

But she said she liked it very much~! : D ...and no, we're not Chinese haha Angie picked that red cheongsam herself.

Sister in-law, Aton, Angie, Big bro. The happy birthday headband was too small for his head wakaka

Birthday girl blowing out her candles~! ---and Aton having a fit beside her. He wants to blow the candles too.

... and so his mum had to light the candles again just so he can blow it out.

I absolutely salute parents~! Taking care of kids are not easy. Or perhaps I'm just not gifted in that area. I am always a bit kind to them, giving them what they want and let them have their way huhuhu that's one way to let your head get stomped by their little feet XD

Anyway, it's Christmas Eve~! Merry Christmas to everyone and don't forget to leave the cookies and milk beside your Christmas tree~! HO HO HO

2D vs 3D

2010-12-21T11:00:00.000+08:00

Today, I'd like to giveout my thoughts about watching movies in 2D and 3D. It's just my opinion though huhu I might change my mind in coming years hohoho

Point #1 = Expectation

3D: When I want to watch movies in 3D, my mind plays scenes of that movie (from the trailer) in my head and I start to build a really high hope for that movie. Thinking off all that out-of-screen effects and when it's not up to my expectation, the movie will suck (for me).

2D: Nothing to expect unless friends or reviews says that it blows the mind away but it doesn't blow my mind. Get what I mean? Huhu

Point #2 = Price

3D: RM15 in GSC. No student price. There are student price in Growball though... RM13 per ticket. I guess the remaining RM2 is for buying soft drinks. I think for watching 3D movies, it's best to go to GSC because they have a far better popcorn than Growball. I'd like to call Growball's popcorns healthy popcorns. Very few hints of caramel, the rest is white popcorn.

2D: RM5 in Growball, if you have a student card. If not, RM7. I think it's RM8 in GSC, RM7 if you have a student card. RM5 is very affordable for a poor student like me huhu

Point #3 = Side effects

3D: Sometimes the glasses hurt the bridge of my nose.

2D: Sometimes if I'm unlucky, the seats are not stable (Growball, hear me out~! But they're changing their seats for all the halls there). Sometime this year, a friend of mine and I went to see a movie and the chair failed her not once but twice~! It was a midnight movie so not many people were there so she just quickly switch seats.

Point #4 = Satisfaction

3D: No effect at all (Airbender~!) or very few effects (Toy Story 3, Rapunzel). Airbender was very dissapointing. I was wondering why the heck does this 3D movie have subtitles. Gah, it turns out that only the subtitle have the 3D effect. It stood out. The action doesn't harbour any effect at all. All the time I was thinking, "RM15 all to waste. I could've watched 3 2D movies in Growball~!" For Toy Story 3, maybe we were sitting waaaaaaaaaay back (does the position of your seat affect the effects?) Rapunzel... I don't know but only the lantern scene was fantastic.

2D: I guess I didn't have to think of other factors like money and the satisfaction of out-of-screen effects and just sit back, relax and enjoy the story and scenes.

That's it~! I've ran out of points : p
Sometimes, when I watch something in 3D and my friends watched it in 2D, I will say the movie is not good but they'll say that it was great. Huhuhu sometimes I think 3D hinders my judgement of movies.

Since Airbender, I am very sceptical of watching 3D movies. Don't get me wrong, I think 3D is an excellent idea. Just... some of the movies are not worth the money to watch in 3D. By far my best 3D experience was Despicable Me. Hohoho

Now, who wants to belanja me Tron?

Christmas is just around the corner~! Hohoho

2010-12-19T10:33:00.000+08:00

I visit a lot of blogshops these days. I browse everything from dresses, shoes, accesories, gadgets and perfumes. Seriously you can get anything from the net.

When I hear about Christmas, automatically the spirit of giving will come to mind.

And now, Diva Darling is giving out 3 I-want-them items hoho

#1

Limited Edition Estee Lauder Pure Lip Gloss Set

Limited Edition Bobbi Brown Crystal Eye Palette

Crabtree & Evelyn Lavender Duo Gift Set

If you want to participate too, just go to http://www.diva-darling.com/2010/12/december-holiday-giveaway.html

It ends on the 31st of December 2010~! Go go go~!

My sweet cupcake is dented~!

2010-12-11T11:01:00.000+08:00

When my mum brought my car back from Tuaran yesterday, I saw the dent and my eyes started to water. Grrr... my car is 1 month shy of a year old and this happened to it. I seriously wanted to strangle the perp.

T.T

T,T

There were scratches on the wind shield (front mirror) too~!
The thing is, my mum wasn't even following the lorry (it was carrying pvc pipes) from behind it. It happened in a roundabout. As the lorry passed, the rope securing the pipes broke and by the law of gravity, the pipes fell and hit my car.

Damn.

Btw, I'm grateful that my mum is ok.

Sadly, my car was not so lucky. (T.T)

I was planning to drive to Keningau today (Farrah is getting married~!) but it looks like I have to settle with a bus ride.

p/s: The perp promised to pay for the repairing fees. I hope he's a man who keeps his promises.

No confidence at all~!

2010-12-08T18:40:00.000+08:00

Yesterday at the ticketing booth in GSC.

Ticket girl: What movie?

Me: Rapunzel 3D.

Ticket girl: What time?

Me: Mmm... pukul lima. (5 o'clock)

Ticket girl: Please pick a seat.

Me: Aiya, mo penuh suda ni! Jadi mana ko mo duduk? (Shucks, it's almost full! So, where do you wanna seat?)

My sister: Mmm...

Me: K8, K9 lah. (My sister & I was debating over where to sit and I decided to go ahead and pick the center seat but it was the 4th row from the screen. I like to sit in the middle~!)

Ticket girl: You don't want the side seats? (Pointing to the seats on the monitor, the side seats were a lot further from the screen)

Me: Tidak lah. Namau seat yang tepi punya. (No, I don't want the side seats.)

We ended up buying those 2 seats. The perpetrator of my hurting neck~!

Anyway, the reason I brought these dialogue up is because,... *big sigh* I have no confidence speaking the English Language to people~!

Not to be all big headed or anything but I consider myself pretty good in the English Language. Never did I failed any English test or exam I took. I secretly would feel satisfied whenever I got the highest mark. I like the language but I just... I don't know, I get really shy when it comes to actually speaking the language.

Can you imagine how I feel when it's time for an oral exam? Huh, I didn't like it. Impromptu kills me. When you write, you pretty much think about it thoroughly and you can just erase it and make some new sentences but when it's impromptu,.. nothing is erasable.

There's this one time on the elevator at the mall that some guy wanted to strike a conversation with me and I just... nodded, smiled and muttered something in return. Hahahaha That wasn't even a tall, handsome foreign guy but a random friendly uncle asking me where I'm headed and whether I'm doing my Christmas shopping. Gah~!

The reason that I can come up with is that I'm terrified of saying something wrong. Huhuhu pretty silly but I'm working on this.

I might be teaching English Language in school later. But surprising to me, when I was teaching EL in school for my practical, I can speak well and worry free ehehe maybe because they're kids. It's natural to feel superior over them.

I'm determined to correct this flaw. Hohoho I will do my best whenever someone talks to me in this language~! Just don't think too much Judith~!

When the hair on your back stands...

2010-12-03T19:14:00.000+08:00

... ghosts are nearby~! People say that all the time. I just gave myself goosebumps huuu...

Now, I think I have never encountered paranormal things before. Except kena tindih. Ermm... I'm not sure how to translate this term to the English Language. Perhaps, the feeling of being pushed down by something.

'The Nightmare' by Henry Fuseli

I usually experience this before falling asleep. Suddenly my body defies me. I cannot move at will. I felt as if something heavy is on top of me and my fingers experience numbness (semut-semut). My eyes were shut though I feel like I can open them a little but I refuse for fear of seeing *things*. Huhuhu most of the time I would not hear anything during these few seconds or minutes but I recall a few times that I heard sinister laughs of a woman and there was another time that I heard church bells. The sinister laugh was very terrifying~!

People tell me that to fight these things, you just have to move your big toe. Virtually impossible for me huhu I always panic and never remember to do this.

Some say to not fight it. Quit trying to move or scream. I find that this works~! I just lay still and it will pass.
I've heard stories from my friends that they sometimes see what is pinning them down. Some see dark shadows pinning them. My sister said she saw two shadows, 1 was pinning her down and the other smaller one was watching on her side. It's like the bigger shadow was teaching the smaller shadow how to do it. Huhuhu pretty funny. One friend saw a big cat pinning her down and another friend saw a woman pinning him down. Pretty but scary at the same time.

Is this phenomena caused by paranorml activities? Science explained it as sleep paralysis.

Pic from http://www.flickr.com/photos/arambulo/2243056949/

This temporary paralysis might cause people to experience seeing things, hearing things and tactile(feeling as if pushed down, numbness on fingers). It may happen before you fall asleep or before waking up from sleep.

Yeah, I experienced those symptoms.

Things that can trigger sleep paralysis are:

1. Sleeping facing upwards or supine position for too long.

2. Irregular sleep clock

3. Sleep/rest deprivation

4. Too much stress. Money/family problems are some.

5. Extreme change in lifestyle. (You've been sitting inactive in your house for so long a time and then suddenly you go mountain climbing or doing something extreme)

6. Narcolepsy

7. A lucid dream that precedes the episode of being pinned down.

8. Excessive consumption of alcohol coupled with lack of adequate sleep.

My kena tindih episodes peaked in Keningau during my foundation year. When we moved to Gaya, there was one semester that I experienced it a lot, that was the third semester.

I don't drink and I'm not narcoleptic. So that leaves the other triggers. I don't sleep in the afternoon and I usually sleep at 1 in the morning and wake up at 6.30am to go to class. You can say I was deprived of sleep but it wasn't irregular because my sleeping time is always like that everyday.

In Keningau, I would often go out to play badminton, tennis or volleyball with my friends. So... maybe it's some sort of lifestyle change.

Yours truly in yellow with brown cap.

I always played defence in school and suddenly I realized I could shoot too huhuhu : )

I was definitely stressed because this was my first time living far away from home and I was quite taken aback at the amount of work to be done in college.

Upon my research of sleep paralysis, I found out that this happens all around the world. In north America, it is associated with the old hag.

In Africa, they call it devil on your back.

This topic really fascinates me, if you want to read more about folklores surrounding sleep paralysis, do read it here --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_paralysis

So, all in all, I like to say that this pinned down experience is of sleep paralysis because the thought of being pinned by *things* scares me more huhuhu

Sweet dreams~!

Karambunai Nexus Pool Villa hoho~!

2010-12-01T13:28:00.000+08:00

You know what's the sunny side of having a working big brother? Hohoho he takes the maknae (I'm the youngest~!) out to places you've never been before.

So, last week he & his wife was away from work and decided to stay in Karambunai Nexus' Pool Villa for a day. Hell, the place costs so much, extending the stay would burn a hole in his pocket.

My 2nd brother and I arrived late hoho it was around 8.30pm that we hit the place. Check out was the day after.

The moment I entered the house, I was thinking; "This is my dreamhouse~!" It's a semi-detached house fully equipped with electrical appliances with contemporary design you just gotta love. It's not too small and not too large hohoho

This is the backyard. The beach were just steps away~! At night, you'll hear the sound of waves crashing onto the sand. I love love love it~!

Pool side. These doors can be opened and reveal the living room. We didn't open them lest the water will come in.

The gazebo (can we call this a gazebo?) overlooking the beach. It's a perfect place to look out for the youngs ones swimming too.

At night, my 2 borthers and I played cards in the gazebo. Played chor tai dee (not sure how it's spelled!) and lost terribly. There was this one time that I was sure I'm gonna win when I had four 8's and a 4 but my big bro had four 10's and a 3. Dammit~!

The Pool Villa serves you with 2 rooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen, a living room, 2 plasma tvs subscribed to ASTRO (1 in the living room and the other in the master bedroom), a dining area, 3 pools (2 for kids and 1 for adults), a patio/gazebo, and free breakfast for 4. It costs RM8++ a night. Add the tax, it sums up to RM1012 a night. Grrr... a hefty price, I'd say.

They also have apartments here. They cost about RM5++ a night.

I like the high ceiling.

Nice idea for your house huhuhu

Clockwise from left: Kitchen, dining area, kitchen peek.

The kitchen has a fridge, microwave, sink grinder, heater and smoke ventilator. The kitchen is so small. If I want a house, I'd like a larger kitchen. Hohoho

Space saver~! When you open the mysterious door, it reveals an ironing board and iron~!

This is the master bedroom bathroom. I like how the mirrors are so large~! Ooo jacuzzi~!

This is actually what you'll see from the bathroom. It is situated right next to the jacuzzi.

I've never been in a jacuzzi tub before so I was very very very excited to try it. It is relaxing and ticklish at the same time~! Especially when the water jets shoots right at the soles of my foot. Huhuhu I can spend hours in the tub~!

Like how I can spend hours in the pool~!!! I realized last week that I love swimming~! Ahem, granted that I can still feel the bottom of the pool lah. I don't think I can swim if the pool is 6 feet or deeper. Scary~!

I was so surprised that the pools were inches away from the house.

The right hand side pool where Angie and Anderson was playing in were just beside the master bedroom. It was great because my sister-in-law could watch them from inside the room.

This place is near the dining area. I always forgot to take my towel before I canon balled into the pool so I purposedly left my towel on the dining chair hoho very practical.

A view of the whole pool. It is 4 feet deep. I still can't believe I can swim from one end to the other~! Huhuhu 23 years old and I'm proud of this fact hahaha

You know how kids nowadays a very gadget savvy right? Angie likes to play around with my digicam and took these photos for me.

A bit blurry la Angie~! That's me swimming. hahaha

She told me to give a V.

Then she told me to do water gymrama.

Anderson ruining Angie's moment. Hahaha Oh look, there's a butterfly~! : p

7.30am we went for breakfast. Hohoho the buffet had everything from multiple juices, cereal, bread, muffin, fruits, chicken curry, beef slices, pan cakes, noodle & rice, etc.

Big bro. Thank you~!

I enjoyed my brief stay there. Lots of other activities were available like snorkelling, jetskiing, kayaking, batik making, tennis, ping pong, karaoke, etc but there was not enough time to try them. I had fun in the house anyway : ) I doubt it that I'll be here or someplace like this again in the near future. Hohoho goodbye Pool Villa Nexus Karambunai~!!!

Kumusta ka yo? Philippines trip part 2

2010-11-23T18:31:00.001+08:00

The Third day was shopping day with an hour of our lifetime spent being lost.

Shopping malls were abundant~! Everywhere you turn, there's bound to be one just begging for you to enter~!

Behold, Greenhill~!

A pretty building near Greenhill.

First, we went to Greenhill. All of the shops there were high end shops but we were there too early so we had to let it go (hehe honestly, we can't afford to shop there~! Poor students' fate).

Then, we headed to Greenbelt. Now there's a place for us. The stuff there was cheap but you really have to endure the incessant, 'pili lang...' and 'polo shirts' being shouted in your ears.

otw to Greenbelt.

Shops as far as the eye can see... huhuhu lots and lots of shops/stalls were there. The big group separated and Don, Cory & I went together.

We developed this silly practise of asking the price and go on to other shops to see whether it is cheaper. When we realized the price of the other shop was cheaper, we can't seem to find the shop~! Happened about 3 or 4 times.

There were no benches to sit on too... we only found out the others were sitting sipping cold drinks upstairs. Hohoho seriously, my legs felt overused and mistreated.

Legs eventually gave out and we ended up sitting wherever.

When we finally decided to go back to our hotel, this happened at the MRT.

People were going back home from work too~! What great timing...

And, as we went inside a coach, Ninang was left standing outside the closed door~! Huhuhu the look on her face is still fresh in my mind~! Out of all of us, she was the only one left behind. No worries though, we got back together at our stop.

What felt like an hour of commuting, we got back to the station near our hotel... to find out that we've lost our way~! It was raining too~! We separated into 2 groups and I was relieved to find the other group was lost too~! Ohohoho We met on the roadside and we were all wet from the rain. Hahaha finally we put our heads together and figured out the way.

We got lost because we remembered the 7-11 that was 2 blocks away from our hotel but we didn't know that the road across the station also has a 7-11. So, we followed the wrong clue huhuhu anyway, I never knew getting lost can be fun. Maybe because we were all together with good friends.

End of day 3.

The fourth day was shopping day in Mall of Asia. Some of the things that I bought were just silly things. Things that I don't think I'll actually use.

Saw this theme park otw to MOA. If I ever come to Manila again, I'd like to visit this park huhu

MOA, the largest mall in the Phillipines. It is the 3rd largest mall in Asia and the 4th largest mall in the world. Needless to say, it is huge~!

~And this was my first stop here, the ladies' room. It has this huge ass mirror and I absolutely adore it~! And when I came out, I saw this;

Guys, I know we major in Maths, don't we have a smaller calculator than a scientific calc? Hoho I forgot what Farid & Ninang was counting for.

Our mission in MOA was to watch a movie, eat and shop. So, first up, Cory & I was incharge of buying the movie tickets.

Surprise surprise, the cinemas here do not assign the seating arrangements like Malaysia. It is free seating. Later I found out that other countries like America also practises free seating. Only countries like Malaysia, Japan and Korea, etc provides seating arrangements in the cinema.

So, imagine our horror~! (We like to have a good spot to watch movies, I personally like to sit dead center)

Oh yeah, we decided to watch Toy Story 3 in 3D. Hohoho was so excited~!

We had time to kill so we made ourselves at home : ) I think this was near hall5.

Blue elephant made from LEGO huhu

I love the concept of this shop~! The nails in this shop was knife, screwdrivers, etc. Didn't snap a single pic of it because I'm afraid I'd be bludgeoned hehe I'm not mental.

Another interesting shop. It's not a bookshop though, it's a boutique called Apple & Eve.

Finally, the movie was minutes away. The ticket includes a free popcorn or hotdog. I chose hotdog and some of the others chose popcorn. The popcorn is not the same with ours too. There, the popcorn is all white. You need to add your own desired amount of salt. Poor Epa, she thought the salt was sugar so she poured a lot of the salt in~! Imagine what it tasted like... huhuhu

We decided to sit here. Of all places, we chose here. I wanted to go nearer the screen but decided to stay huhuhu : (

After the movie (which was funny and I actually cried in the end haha Andy is such a good boy~!), we scattered to have lunch.

Reney, Cory, Don and I decided to go here (I forgot the name!) because the interior is cute hoho

Order~!!!

Then we all reunited to figure out the way to Bench. Why don't we have Bench here? It's a cool shop.

Along the way, we got distracted by this ice ring. Spent about 15 minutes adoring the scaters.

Got so distracted in Bench hence no photos of Bench hehe Almost everyone bought something in Bench. Be it perfumes, shirts and boxers. I saw a very cute watch but sadly, I didn't go with my guts to just buy it huhu At the end of this trip, I still have 1000+ pesos with me.

Cory and I making a wish hahaha can't really see me.

After this, we all went to Baclaran because a taxi driver told us that the stuff there is cheaper than those in Greenbelt. Huhuhu no pics there though, we were warned not to show something pricey...

Don, Cory, Zul, Zima and I decided to head back to MOA and shop some more~!

Late into the night, I bought some doughnuts hohoho I love doughnuts~!

There was a huge globe infront of MOA and it differs when it is day and night.

This is what the globe looks like in daytime.

By nightime, it displays magical colours. It was during the world cup and the globe even turns itself into a soccer ball. Didn't manage to snap the pic though huhu

Got back to the hotel and almost fainted from fatigue huhu thank goodness I was wearing shoes and not sandals. End of day 4.

Our last day was again the repeat of the first day. Long van ride from Manila to Clark, airplane ride from Clark to Kota Kinabalu.

This is the only picture were all of us are in the frame. At the front desk of our hotel.

Crammed inside our van~! I was beside Zima~!!!

Made a stop to buy some manila mangoes~! The dried mangoes was deliciously yummy~! If you happen to go to the Phillipines, do buy heaps of 'em~!

I loved this trip~! Hope I can have another fun trip next year~! Amen.

The Phillipines can be a great place to travel, so long as you have planned where to go and you are in great company.

Salamat po~!

Kumusta ka yo? Philippines trip part 1

2010-11-19T13:14:00.000+08:00

A major series of photos ahead.

5 days 4 nights in the Philippines was such a great experience for me. Travelling with 8 other friends enriched the experience. I couldn't ask for better companions.

We bought the AirAsia tickets to Clark last year for cheap cheap cheap prices hohoho waited for a long time and finally we were in the Philippines last June.

The first day was spent at the airport, on the airplane, on a bus and on a taxi. Pheww...

Orange ribbons thanks to Ziema ohoho

Before taking off huhuhu super excited~!

The same three roundheads hahaha

See ya Sabah~! >.<

Fast forward 2 hours later

There were droplets of rain greeting us hohoho

Clark Airport... This photo looks retro right? Like those 60's photo hoho no editing done except to add the frame and tag.

Spent another 2 hours on a bus ride from Clark to Manila.

Cory and I. We spotted something...

Pictures of Virgin Mary in the bus. huhuhu no such thing as this here in our home country.

Hohoho Don was talking to his mom, "Jan lagi call sa, credit sa yang habis nanti." Haha seriously, the call and text rates are crazy~! I only texted my mom once a day. Call rates were RM2.50/min and text rates were RM2.00/sms.

After that, we spent another hour on a van/taxi to get to our hotel. We spent the whole day travelling. By the time we arrived in Casa Bocobo Hotel, we were so tired. Don, Cory, Reney and I went to ChowKing to nom nom huhuhu

Hohoho was so hungry, ate the whole thing.

Throughout this trip, I think I walked thousands of miles I can cover the whole Sabah. I think that's the downside of travelling on your own without a guide. But when you're in great company, even getting lost was exciting.

The second day was all about sight seeing. That's why the majority of my pictures are of us wearing the same thing hahaha This also marks our first jeepney ride ever~!

First up, Jose Rizal Park~!

Outside our hotel. Good service from the moment I emailed them until we checked out. Huhu

8/9 of us.

Jose Rizal Park was within walking distance from our hotel... less than 10 minutes of walking, we arrived there. We passed here later that night to get back to our hotel and was surprised that many people was lying on the fields just looking at the stars, listening to the music blaring from the speakers and just chilling with friends and family. Speakers were put in every corner of the park, playing Philippino music. Nice.

There behind us was what we thought to be Jose Rizal's monument. Huhuhu took a lot of pictures here. But the truth is... when we walked to the other side,

Jose Rizal was standing on the other side~! Silly us.

I have a knack making this pose huhuhu hand on waist and the other one making a V huhu I seriously need a pose coach.

The life of Jose Rizal (or so I thought it is). Jose was giving a lecture beside me. If you notice, one guy's head is missing. Probably couldn't handle the lecture and his head exploded haha He's sitting in the first row too XD

With the 'Mother of the Philippines'.

Another tourist-ty picture.

"No love for both of you~!" says Ninang to Cory and Epa. hahaha btw, I like your dress Epa.

After the park, we walked to another tourist destination, Intramurous.

Intramuros 1.23km huhu Farid was excited~! You can see me here leading the pack : )

On the way to Intramurous, I saw thos wood electric pole. Hoho.

Manila Cathedral. Gorgeous~! There's a mass going on inside so we couldn't come in huhu I bet it's beautiful~!

We went to three places in Intramuros; Manila Cathedral, San Agustine Museum and church. It's a shame we didn't go to other places there. It's beautiful~! Beautiful buildings.

Don't you just love the way the cathedral is? It's very pretty!

Another one..

All the girls~! >.<

This is the San Agustine Church's door. Fell in love with the carvings.

A shot with the whole church.

With a dungeon-ny lamp and a big bell hohoho

Inside the church. Absolutely breathtaking~!

Blurry picture but I love the background~!

The biggest instrument I ever saw in my life so far~! Haha

An organ pipe.

The hallway of the museum...

This kinda freaks me out. To think that a dead guy is lying inside the thing.

This photo is just random huhu

After the long visit, we walked (again!) to SM Mall where we had lunch and broke our legs in 3 different places. There were absolutely nowhere to sit down~! Anyway, took a quick pic of this riot(?) and quickly put my cam inside, was afraid I would be confronted or something huhu I have a weird line of thinking.

After what seems forever in the mall, we took a Jeepney ride (thank God!) to Ocean Park. All this in one day, can you imagine? Hoho patah jugalah kaki mo bejalan~!

Ocean Park Manila~! So pretty... kinda reminds you of 'Avatar' doesn't it?

One more... just because I like it hoho But Don looks a bit extreme here haha

Inside... no flash photography. Why? Maybe they're afraid the fishes would go berserk. But it's so hard snapping pics of the fishes with no flash hohoho

We saw a lot of fishes here (make sense, it IS called Ocean Park :p). This fish has teeth like humans'~!

I call them the Angelina Jolie fish~! Can't really see their lips here but seriously pouty I tell you~!

Sea worms. They spend their life going up and down the sand. Cute little fellows though~!

Sharks~!

And then theres...

A whale~! Hahaha Jan marah ba Pa.

My favorite area was the big tube aquarium.

Jang~!

...

A diver giving the marine lives food. So kesian the diver, the stingrays were constantly swarming him to get food.

And he spent a moment to take pics with us~! Hohoho bless you diver man~!

Sooo tired... I think we were inside for a good 2 hours before leaving.

OPM's souvenir store~! Didn't buy anything, just wanted a place to sit down and nurse my sore behind.

Went outside and we bought fake sunglasses~! Wakakaka for what, 50 pesos which is roughly RM4.

After that, we sat down and watched as Ninang and Reney tumbled. Hoho my legs were really killing me~!

Reney~!!!

After that, we walked back to the hotel, passing Jose Rizal Park and marvel over the people lying on the grass.

Then Cory, Don and I went to McD just around the hotel.

End of day 2.

End of part 1.

The Third day was shopping day with an hour of our lifetime spent being lost. But that's for part 2 huhuhu

Salamat po~!

Cursed chain of bad movies~!

2010-10-24T14:40:00.001+08:00

I love going to the movies~! Hohoho but these past weeks kinda dampens my burning desire to watch movies in the cinema. "Why?" You asked, heh now I can read minds. Bravo~!

I was cursed with bad movies.

Either that or I don't have a good taste in movies. I like the former reason. Cursed was I, Dudu, Cory and Ninang. (Don, I'm not sure if you were cursed along or not hoho).

Emm... all of the comments I make here is purely from my thoughts and preferences so if you don't agree with me, it's not the end of the world. : )

The first movie was this,

Alpha & Omega

I'm all for animation but this one was... not cute, not funny, not my glass of beverage. Very awkward animation... it's just, wrong.

The second cursed movie,

La Americano...

Nothing to say because this movie is absolutely terrible~! I used to think that 'Beowolf' was a bad movie but compared to this, Beowolf looks like an award winning movie. This is the worst movie I have ever seen. What were they thinking? I've never slept while in the movies but yes, I slept on this one, with my mouth open, mind you. Grrr...

We were even thinking of doing a movie marathon with this and Buried but cancelled due to this movie's awesome power to completely bore you to ~~death~~ dreamland.

You see, I'm a positive person. I thought that the third time's a charm but to my sorry ass, we watched this;

Buried starring Ryan Reynolds.

I loved Ryan Reynolds in his sitcom, '2 guys and a pizza place' but this one is a masterpoop. The story was good but being in the coffin in the whole movie??? WTH?! Boy, this must be the cheapest movie budget ever, all he needs is a wooden box (coffin), a lighter, a cellphone, some stick lights, waterbottle and a snake. That's all. Like I said, the story is good but I think it would be better if there were flash backs when he was kidnapped or stories outside of the coffin. This was better than Alpha&Omega and The American though.

When will the chain be broken?! Haiya... Good thing we didn't do a movie marathon before!

Movie #4~!

RED

Retired and Extremely Dangerous~! Hohoho this was the chain breaker. Finally~! About CIA retirees that are hunted... they're old but they still have the charisma to charm the audience. I like RED. hohoho Marvin is my fave character in this movie.

Movie #5

The other guys.

It wasn't great but it didn't suck too bad either. Well, after the trauma of watching 3 bad movies in a row, my expectations in movies falls drastically. It was funny but I think it was too long of a movie.

Movie #6

Reign of assassins

I love the love story in here~! Makes you wanna smile when the lovey dovey scenes come up. The story and fighting scenes was good. Only thing I was not sure why was, why don't they use Michelle Yeoh's real voice? It was a bit disturbing for me... but I still love the movie~!

By the way, a lot of Growball's chairs are broken. Fix it you guys~! I know they have replaced some new chairs but please, take care of the ones you haven't replaced too, especially in Hall 1.

OHOHOHO

I have a short fuse.

2010-10-21T15:27:00.000+08:00

Hello,

I know this is one of my many weaknesses. Different is, I don't like this one the most. I have a very short lease, a short fuse, I'm hot headed, whatever you want to call it. I get angry really fast.

Example #1,

When I'm teaching in class, if my students won't pay attention to what I'm saying, I get really frustrated and ended up teaching nothing. I will get all grumpy and ask them to do exercises instead. It's hard work thinking all the strategies to make them understand the lesson and what do they give me? A mouthful of whines and unimportant chit chat.

Example #2,

I would get angry at other drivers for cutting me in without signaling. Yes, I'd shout (inside the car though, not enough courage to give them a big shout or the finger, the latter sounds fun).

Example #3,

I don't like to be disturbed when I'm watching the television. Sometimes I say rude things (or reply in a I-don't-care manner) to my family for blocking the tv or if they try to strike a conversation with me. I hate this the most most most most most~! I mean, it's just a tv show, there are bound to be reruns anyway...

Many things annoys me but I would like to keep it to myself because I think getting mad at someone is not nice. Today I shouted at a friend because he was fooling around while I was kinda stressed out because of a certain lecturer huhuhu I didn't mean to do it but err I did it anyway, to which I'm feeling the guilt in the pit of my belly. I'm sorry~! : D

I have got to manage my emotion better~!

Don't jump on the jetty

2010-10-17T14:34:00.000+08:00

Hi gals and guys,

Yesterday I went to my 2nd island getaway, Manukan Island~!

Ecstatic upon arriving, we went on and tried to capture a jumping pose picture on the jetty. It was a first attempt success~! Hohohoho but...

Look at where my selipar jepun is at... XD

Huhuhu posing with my rogue slipar.

Thank Heavens that the picture of us jumping turned out fine~!

Was waiting for the other boats to come so we can ask the boat driver for help huhuhu

My saivour~! Hohoho thank you Mr. Boat Driver~!

Whole again~!

Less than 10 minutes on the island and this slipper thing happenned. Did I mention that I forgot my purse too? Grr... thanks to Epa yg kurang comel for lending me some money~! Hohohoho Despite all that, I had a blast in Manukan... I'll post about this later~!

Wish list~!

2010-10-10T13:30:00.000+08:00

Everybody wants something. Anything at all, even if you know that it's impossible, you still want it. Huhuuuu

So, to commemorate today's beautiful date, 10/10/10, I will reveal to you my wish list~! Ohohoho since I'm not going anywhere today... :( Home bound by choice, pathetic but yeah, that's me. : D

1. Travel to Japan / South Korea. I've been wishing this for the past 10 years. Ohohoho

Streets of Tokyo.

South Korea. Where I'd like to watch Dream Team live hahahaha

2. Watch a tennis grand slam match. Preferably the Roland Garros in Paris. Wow, it must be exciting to be there, experiencing all the action huhuhu If it's not tennis, watching a badminton match is also my wish.

Koo + Tan, watching them would be fun hoho

Nadal... hohoho the king of clay performing on clay is a must watch~!

3. Watch a live concert.

To be amongst the crown... wuuuuu :D

It doesn't have to be these guys (but if it's SHINee's concert, wahahaha I'd die in happiness). I want to be in Celine Dion's concert too... XD

4. To own some interesting gadgets. Right now I want the new iPhone 4 huhuhu and I've been wanting that Nintendo wii : )

5. To know how to wear makeup properly~! Argh... with my sepet eyes, it's double the trouble grr... maybe I should always go au naturale.. hahaha

These are only 5 of my long roll of wishes. Huhuhu Some I don't think I should share with others. Perhaps my biggest wish is that I will always be in good terms with my friends. I regret that whenever I see my friends from school, I always have nothing to say... not like those days when we were together. Well, I'm working on that~! If you're reading this, my friends from school, I'm going to greet you when I see you~! Huhuhu I hope I can hold on to that hohohoho
Anyway, I hope I can do half of these things before 12/12/12~!

Hooked on Moomoo

2010-09-19T13:51:00.001+08:00

Hohoho I bought this last week and I just can't get enough of him~! Hahahaha Presenting.... MooMoo~!

I only have him on video... hoho forgot to take pics of him. Turn down your speaker because the sound of the aircond is deafening. It's like a blizzard is in the car~! Run MooMoo~!!! *ehem*

Reminds me of Onew huhuhu (Dudu will be delighted~!) Gosh, I might just name him Onew~!

Onew (I'm fighting the urge to say Onew oppa but realized I'm older than him hoho Damn all you young people~! XD Wish I could be 18 again. Ahh... 18 was fun)

SHINee

Talking about SHINee, my absolute favourite song in the Lucifer album is Quasimodo and Life~! I want to use those songs in this blog but thus far haven't added any jukebox in here. Being an absolute idiot in technology and all (T.T) Tutorial please Encik Slash~! Or Adik Slash.. because I AM older than you~! Wahahahaha Gosh I'm older than everyone... major depression coming.

Take care everyone.

*UPDATED*

Thanks to Slash's swift actions, I now have a song on my blog~!!! FYI Slash, I tried compressing the thing but it's still 4mb in size hohoho Nvm, it's still pretty small. For Slash's put-a-song-on-your-blog tutorial, click here~!

Robin Hood wannabe~!

2010-09-08T07:48:00.001+08:00

Ja jang~!

I've always thought that archery is fun. Holding the bow and shooting the arrow and all... huuuu it looked cool.

Cool... minus the bump hahahaha

Never thought I'd be black & blue over it~! T.T

This is from that night. (i) was right after I took off the harness... A little bit of pain sensation can be felt. (ii) was when we got home. I noticed there were another small circular bruise on top of the big one. Huhu (iii) was 2 hours after #ii, before I went to bed. Huhu We can see a lot of progression from (i) to (iii).

Hohoho day 2 and 3 freaked me out a little bit. It was huge and purplish in color~! Day 7 was a sigh of relief. I managed to hide it from my mum. My sister saw the bruise though, as I was trying to pick baby Ivy up.

I was so excited~! Maybe all the adrenaline was rushing in so I didn't really felt the pain hohoho

With the instructor. She was nice and helpful. Helped me to change the bow when she found out that I'm a lefty.

Dudu and I hohoho I look so sinister huhuhu

My shots~! Hahaha only one arrow was in the yellow region.

My self-explanation is that the bruises surfaced because my arm is not straight. Huhuhu When I let go of the string, it slapped against my arm, thus the bruises. I'm not sure about the small circular bruise though. Huhuhu kena hisap hantu???

Buuuuuut... I'd go again someday~! It was fun and exciting hohoho btw, we paid RM17 for 2 person (RM8.50 per person) for 40 arrows (20 per person). We got cheaper price because we used our student cards. Huhuhu better exploit that card more... can't use it anymore next year~!!!

Playtime in Watsons

2010-09-07T14:13:00.000+08:00

Last week we went to Karamunsing to buy sandals but we were a little early, Watsons was the only shop lot that is open.

So we went there to play.

Looks a lot like 4feetnine~!

Saw sample eyeshadows and we played with them hohoho

Why do I have that surprised look? hahaha can't really see the eyeshadow. Curse these eyes~!

I put eyeshadows on Dudu~! Wahahaha you can really tell that I'm no expert in makeup. I rarely wear makeup lah. I guess being sepet doesn't help my motivation to apply some makeup huhuhu I can put tons of eyeshadow and you still won't see it~! Serious~!

The lady on the counter was giving us dirty looks so we took off hohoho but not before paying for the stuff we bought.

For using free eyeshadow, I was punished later in the evening. Huhuhu wanna see the punishment? Ta-da~!

Ouch~!

Will post about this later huhuhu

Toothy toothy

2010-09-06T09:30:00.000+08:00

This is my niece, Ivy. Ohohohoho she now has teeth~!

My sister took this picture with much difficulty and this is the best one hahaha Ivy is so active, always moving hohoho so it's very hard to take still pics of her.

She's coming here today~! Hope she won't cry when she sees me. The last time I saw her, she cried because she didn't recognize me. Mummy says its because I haven't seen her for so long that she didn't know I was her aunt. huhuhuhu T.T

I'm determined to not make her cry~!!! Hwaiting~!

p/s: school holiday rocks~!

Judgemental

2010-08-28T20:09:00.000+08:00

I once said I will never like the color yellow and red. These days, I find myself attracted to them. Huhuhu

I swore that I will never like my hair long (since I always had short hair when I was small) --- I've had long hair for years now~!

I said auto cars are boring. Yes, you guessed right, my car is an auto gear~! hohoho Convenience wins it >.<

I told Dudu she was a teenybopper for liking SHINee (pronounced as shiny, at first I thought it was shi nee ^_^ ). Especially when she blogged about them. Now, I can't stop listening to their songs and watching 'Lucifer' again and again. Hahaha sorry Dudu~! So to make up for it, I'm writing this post~!

The SHINee boys are very good dancers~! Look at this video if you wanna see them dance. Watching this video is a daily ritual for both Dudu and I XD.

I am officially a fan of SHINee~!

Last week was my korean music week. I was watching a lot of youtube --- was watching 2pm, Homme (they keep undressing in the vid, eye candy but a little bit weird), CNBlue, Big Bang, MBLAQ, SUJU (I still can't understand why they need 12 members in super junior!!!), T-ARA, Hot Potato, MC Mong, etc...
Anyway, lesson of the day, never say never. Hohoho

One thing is for sure, I'll NEVER like vegetables! Unless you can find veggies that tastes like chicken.

Quicksand

2010-08-03T20:10:00.002+08:00

A sinking feeling. Have you ever had that sinking feeling in the pit of your stomach? That’s what I’m feeling now. The source of this feeling, you might ask? Being low on fund, that’s where it’s coming from. Every time I think about it, I feel like screaming my head off.

Then my head would fly (still screaming, mind you) to the ones responsible for my lack of money. I’m talking to you, dear people of -----tut----.

As free as this country claims it to be, I still can’t talk as freely as I want. After all, where can I find the money to pay my lawyers if they decide to sue me?

Hoho I’m so pathetic.

Up in the air?

2010-07-18T10:46:00.000+08:00

When we were in the Philippines, we tried to catch a picture with us jumping behind the Jose Rizal monument. huhuhuhu Fail to the max~!!!

Attempt #1

Everyone was already landing~!!! Snapped a little late.

Attempt #2

Snapped a little early... everyone was only starting to jump.

Attempt #3

Err... I'm not sure which stage this is... are we trying to jump or landing already?

Attempt #4

Epa was triumphant~! But the rest of us... hahaha fail. If Cory and I were standing next to eachother, we look like we're clubbing hahaha. Berjoget ko sana ah Cory~! Ninang looks like she was welcoming her son home from the kindergarten. Reney... She looks like a beggar was trying to touch her.

Attempt #5

This time the guys joined. Hrmm... we look like we're playing the 'you're it' game and the cameragirl was 'it'. Everyone's trying to run away hohoho Men bubut2 la sana.

Attempt #6

Yeah 50% was successful~! Hehehe Cory... your look here is PRICELESS~! Psst.. did Don passed gas? hahaha

Jumping 10 times in the scorching hot sun was not pleasant but the laughs we had looking at the pictures are worth it. Last but not least....

GBU~!!! <3

Thanks a lot housemates~!!!

2010-07-11T01:44:00.001+08:00

I've always dreamt about multiflavoured cakes all rolled into one.

Something like this

or this hohohoho

On the eve of Cory's birthday, Epa, Ninang and Fun2 surprised us with cakes from Secret Recipe~! Wuauuuuu... When Epa walked in with the cakes in her hands I was so surprised I actually thought it was supposed to be for Dudu (Let me explain; July 1st is Dudu's birthday and July 2nd is Cory's) so I sang along hahaha didn't know it was for the three of us hohoho

Anyway, dream came true cake~!

Mango, black forest, classic cheese, choco banana, and I forgot what... huhuhu Yummy~!

Dig in~! Now you see it...

Now you don't~!

The birthday girls. Moi, Cory and Dudu hohoho

Thanks very much guys~!

How are you today?

2010-07-04T23:03:00.001+08:00

Huuuuu.... today my life pretty much sucked.

Woke up early at about 7am with a pain on my neck. and surfed the net before going downstairs. No church for me this week (again). My excuse today was because my parents aren't home so I'm not going to church. A bad excuse but yeah, still an excuse. I'm not surprised if Lucifer decides to drag me to hell one of these days.

9am, I went downstairs to watch some cartoons. In the middle of the Jackie Chan cartoon, an alarm went off in my brain. I haven't done my laundy yet. Threw some clothes into the washing machine and continued watching the tv. 9.25am, approximately 5 minutes before Spongebob, the power was out. My clothes were soaked in the washing machine.

I'm an optimist. Reading a Reader's Digest mag I just bought from the Philippines, I secretly hoped for the power to come back in the matter of minutes.... to no avail. Push comes to shove, I rather reluctantly got up and washed my laundry manually.

After I hung my clothes to dry, I continued to read. As I was finishing the mag, the power came back. 2 hours too late. By that time, I had already given up watching the tv so I went up to my room and indulge in a calm afternoon nap. Just to wake up an hour and a half later to the sound of rain. No doubt my clothes are no drier than before.

As if my day couldn't have gone any worse, I lost my broadband. Damn~! I was so sure that I put the thing inside my backpack... How can one tiny thing cause me so much misery?

Thinking about my internship didn't help. Tomorrow is the start of my internship. It's not something to worry because it is not like practical. Internship is much more relaxed but yeah, it didn't fail to make me worry. I dunno... I'm so disturbed right now.

Love, Judith.

p/s: Let's pray tomorrow will be a better day. (As if it can get any worse... but I'm not betting against it either!)

Hahaha (nervous laugh)

2010-06-30T19:25:00.000+08:00

Hi guys~!

New semester, last semester. After this, we'll get posted to our school~! (Granted that we pass the exam and action research presentation lah, but hopefully all of us do~!)

With a new semester, comes a new KO (Ketua Opsyen - Sort of the class monitor). If you ask me who has the lowest leadership ability in the class, that would be me. I'm a follower, not a leader. Hohohoho

Anyway, I'll do my best dear classmates~!

Cold feet?

2010-06-19T21:45:00.000+08:00

Yeah, I'm having a serious case of jitters now.

Probably having the cold feet symptoms but no worries Philliphines-trip gang, I wont run away. I'm sure I'll get my feet to Manila. Hohoho

But seriously, I'm getting so nervous and uncertain for this trip. Butterflies are doing somersaults near my intestines.

Nothing to do but pray for the best of times and may we all be safe and happy during this trip~! <3

Now, who wants to help me pack... ring me~!!!

FML~! Haha

2010-06-17T16:10:00.000+08:00

You all know I don't go out much these days, right? Haha I went out 2 and 1/2 hours ago. The plan was:

Take out some money from ASB.
Help my sister post her letter.
Go to Suria to buy tonight's 2130 Toy Story 3 (3D) tickets for me and my sister.
Go to Karamunsing to cash deposit some money to pay for my insurans.
You're done, go home~!

Loooooooooong sigh~!

First, the computer were offline so I couldn't take out some money. Thankfully, I had some money with me that I can use to pay for my insurance. Okay now proceed to agenda #2. Mailing a letter. It was done swiftly.

Agenda #3 was a disaster~! I arrived there to 20 meters of people lining up to buy the tickets. Grr... Then when I finally got to the counter (after 20 minutes of queuing!!!), there were no more seats for the show. Tomorrow's show was full too~! Sure there were seats but at the far end of the cinema~! I don't want that. With twitching eyebrows, I said 'Nevermind. Thanks.' and like a wounded soldier in battle, I dragged myself to the carpark. Half expecting more bad things to happen.

#4 Cash deposit money to pay insurance. I swear if the cash deposit machine was not in service, I'll probably kick it right there and then~! But it wasn't. No line too~! hohoho So I did this swiftly too. Suddenly, a makcik asked me to show her how to use the machine. I taught her, smiled, she thanked me and I was actually glad to help. When I was on the elevator to get to my car, I nearly bumped a pakcik. Then, I was reminded again that my day sucked.

#5 Going home. Check and now I'm doing this.

Hopefully tomorrow will be a beautiful and lucky day~!

P/s: Sabah people, we only have one cinema where we can watch 3D. Book your tickets 2 days before the show~! Gaaaah~!

The Little Red Book

2010-06-16T20:57:00.000+08:00

No, not the blood donation booklet (I dunno where's mine!!!).

Yeehaa~! My passport to hopefully a wonderful and exciting experience. Will be travelling in a couple of days. Hohohoho 9 friends exploring the Philiphines~! With no guide. Ngiahahaha pretty bold of us since not one of us ever went there before huhu But I think our vacation will be hectic like a tour too~! We already planned where we wanted to go huohohohoho XD

Anyway, not gonna tell about that before we actually go there~! I'm afraid I'll jinx the vacation :p

When I went to get my passport, I didn't have a decent photo so I decided to take my picture there (my aunt works there, so I thought I can be all picky about the best picture I can possibly choose from).

My aunt works in a different department but she has friends here too. I was struck dumbfounded when a worker took me outside the imigration department, ask his friend to hold a blue piece of cloth behind me (as the background), shoved his camera in my face and snapped my passpot picture. Turns out they would take my picture outside~! WTH? Hahaha it was so funny. My ugly picture was not so funny though.

My passport picture was taken here~!

Then, we had to wait for 2 hours for my passport. So, we went upstairs to my aunt's office. She's in the marriage/divorce department. Funny how the two is processed at the same place. Imagine a couple getting married and then another couple getting divorced right there and then. Huhuhu pretty pathetic.

Bilik Pengupacaraan (Ceremony Room)

I thought the room was ok. My aunt says they're working on a garden wedding place just beside this room. Will be availeable next year, maybe.

Sooooo pretty~!

After that, my mom and I lounged around the immigration waiting for my passport. It was damn cold~!!! When I got my passport, we hurried home just to get stuck in yet another traffic jam. What a bummer~!

Anyway, I hope our trip will be fun, happy and memorable~! I'm not taking much money but I sure will take lots of pictures~! <3

Too much spare time~! Haha

2010-06-10T11:33:00.000+08:00

Not that I don't like free time~! It's precious yet slaps boredom accross my recently blackhead infested face.

Haven't been updating much because yeah, all I did these past few days were lounging around my house. Wuargh~!

My activities were... (don't have to be in a suspense mode, they're normal activities)

Baking~! Explored new ingredients for the filling. Aside from choc chips, we inserted our all time favourite sweet. Haw flakes~!

Too lazy to take my own pic, I got this pic from http://nummynims.wordpress.com/2009/05/28/

Sometime my sister and I would call this the gula-gula Amen (Amen candy) because the shape is very similar to the bread we get from the holy communion.

The cake was yummy~! Even with no cream, it was finger licking good. Another thing I did was helping my sister colour her hair. Yes, we are thrifty people~! Hoho

Behold~! My colouring prowess~! My fingers are short and gumuk (thick)~! I always blame them when I can't play the guitar well (not blaming my nonexistent musical talent at all haha).

Her idea of steaming her hair. Creative~!

She's having her PTK exam today. Goodluck sis~!

P/s: Her hair turned out pretty ok. Who's next? Wakakaka

Confessions of a birthday girl

2010-06-05T23:22:00.000+08:00

23 years~! Ever year I never fail to say this, "I'm ooooooooooold~!!!!!" Hoho I can be somewhat a pessimist. Like earlier when I woke up I was thinking, "Another 7 years and I'm gonna be....gulp.....30."

Yeah, she's freaking out huhu

Gah, 7 years is a long time right? Right? RIGHT?! Okay, stop freaking out.

Yesterday, I went shopping with my mum. I've been eyeing this thing for a long time now. Always passing by and looking at it. Yesterday I finally took a proper look, tried it on and bought it~!

I dunno what was I doing. Somekind of gunmen salute? Hoho can't really see the new item recently added to my gracefully limited closet.

What's with that face? hahaha This wasn't the one I originally wanted but I was completely caught in love with the colours huhuhu

And I bought a pair of new shoes since my kuliah shoe has finally taken the toll of the countless stairs in my college (institute, whatever). BATA sale~! My shoe was down 30%. I'm officially penniless~! T.T

Later that day, my eldest brother took us out for dinner at a seafood place. It kinda became a tradition with him to take me out to dinner for my birthday. Last year was yummy~! It's sort of a celebration for his wedding anniversary and my birthday. Yup, he got married on my birthday~!

Outside Gayang Seafood Restaurant. Tanks of fishes to choose from~! <3

From left: my brother in law Joe, big bro, Anderson, my sister in law Dolly. Waiting for our food. My stomach was growling~! I didn't have lunch today~!!! Hoho

Corn soup with crab. I think it was ok, my sister thinks otherwise.

Butter prawn~! I loooooove this dish. Never went to a seafood restaurant without ordering this baby!

Curry crab. Didn't think it was going to be a dry curry. Hoho Haven't been eating crab for so long~! <3 But eating this messes up your fingers. I think my fingers was the dirtiest that night. Yum yum~!

There was another dish, Nyonya style fish (I think, I'm so bad with recipe names) and I liked it very much too~! Moi mummy enjoying the food.

Pandan pudding. I thought the presentation could've been better. So plain. This time I agree with my sister, it was bland. Not too much to taste. I finished mine anyway hohoho

No problem for her though~! Angie loves the pudding~!

It was a great night just catching up with family. Haven't seen most of them for the past month. Looking forward to next year's dinner~! Hohoho thank you big bro~!

Since I was young, birthdays was always celebrated. No matter big or small, a cake was always there. I am thankful to my family for always celebrating my birthday and make me feel good throughout my life.

FAST FORWARD TO JUNE 5TH~!

.....

....

...

Tra la la la not doing anything special today (although I half sweared I'd do something today hoho). I was thinking of catching a movie today.

You see, I've been a member of GSC for a long time now (5years~!) and I never used the priviledges. One of them is you can watch a movie free of charge on your birthday month. In today's world, nothing is free, there's gotta be a catch. There's always a catch.

I didn't go because... well, the free movies doesn't excite me. The catch is that not every movie is free. You can only watch those with an asterisk.

Andartu? Naa.... Bounty Hunter? Bad reviews from my friends plus, my brother have this movie, I'll watch it later.

Once A Gangster? I could go watch this but... I don't have that jolt of wonderment to watch. (Actually I woke up late and can't make it to the 1150 show haha and I don't wanna go out alone too late.)

Shrek3? Already watched it in 3D hohoho

The free ticket lasts for a month so, maybe I'll wait a while longer la. Maybe later this month I'll be motivated to go.

Talking about 3D, thanks to Epa's effort, 11 friends went and watched Shrek together. It was such a happy time!

Since every picture with me in it is not clear haha I'm using Aimi and Linda~!

So now I'm just watching the television. Hoho

On another note, congratulations to Francesca Schiavone for winning the women's single in Roland Garros~!

The Italian's speech was so cute~! "I'm sorry, I did not prepare nothing because if I prepare something for the future, it will not happen."

Great game~! Tomorrow is the men's finals between my favorite player, Rafael Nadal and Robin Soderling who last year beat Rafa on the same court. Good luck Nadal~!

Thank you very much for all your wishes~! I appreciate every word you say~! <3 <3 <3

I need you now...

2010-06-01T15:43:00.001+08:00

Lady Antebellum is awesome~! I like their songs so much~! (stars in my eyes) hohoho

I have 'Need You Now' in repeat hoho I do that when I like a certain song. I listen to it over and over again until I memorize the lyrics. Check out their other songs on YouTube. I love them all~!

I think Dave (left, with guitar) is cute (if he looses the beard lah hoho) I only know Dave's name out of these 3. Not because I don't care for the other 2 (they're excellent singers btw) but because I was searching for 'Need You Now' guitar tutorial and voila, Dave personally gives a guitar tutorial for the song! It's in YouTube huhu

At the Country Music Awards (I think!)

Okay enough about my recent obsession.

Isn't it funny that when you're in class/work and you're dreaming over that semester break and then finally when semester break is here, it bores you to death?

Atleast they're happy.

School holidays excites me but I don't like being in one. Maybe because home is not far from where I study and I see my family often. That's why school break bores me. AND... I hardly go anywhere. Since the semester break started, the farthest that I went was to Kepayan (this morning) to pick some mangoes from my uncle's house.

Haha I'm practically saying that my life is boring.

I swear I'll do something this Saturday.

Maybe. <--- too lazy to confirm hehe

Kupi Mahal (Overpriced Coffee hoho)

2010-05-31T12:06:00.000+08:00

Semester 7 is over~! Exams were a whole lot of crap. I was blabbering thoughout my papers. I just hope the lecturers find some sympathy marks in my essays~! I didn't study enough hoho

The day before the exam, I was still watching movies on Hallmark and watching shows on KBS haha totally not freaking over exams.

No, 1D2N is not a cartoon huhu

This is a great site if you wanna know more about '1 Night 2 Days' hoho http://mforum2.cari.com.my/viewthread.php?tid=428088 Basically the guys will go to towns or islands in South Korea to promote the specialty of the place. No hotels though, they will play games to determine whether they will sleep inside or outside, to get food or to get money. This show is really funny. Whoever likes to just laugh out loud (like me), you should watch this show~!

The 'Don't Move!' game.

Everybody, this is Sangguen~! Mascot of 1N2D. I like all of them but if I have to pick one favorite, it will be Sugeun~!

1 Night 2 Days airs on Friday (2320) and Sunday (Rerun 1720). Channel 303 KBS huhuhu I'm officially their promoter hahaha

So anyway, after the exam was over, I, Cory, Dudu and our pimp Don went out to watch Prince of Persia : The Sands of Time.

I remember years ago when I was playing the game. It was fun and challenging, so challenging that I didn't finish the game haha I got stuck in a scene for a long time and just... stopped. What a shame~!

I thought the movie was great~! But Cory thinks it's very similar to another movie, Next.

All those hanging and running on walls was my favourite part~!

The actions were very much similar to the game (it's magic how I still remember the actions despite all the years, come notes for the exam, I can't remember squat~!)

Meoww~!!! Ngiahahahaha

If you haven't watched it yet, what are you waiting for??? Spend RM5 in Growball Cinemax (if you're a student hehe---gah, next year I won't be able to watch movies for as low as RM5 no more~!)

That same day, Don belanja-ed us at a very expensive coffee place. I seldom come here because, yeah, I'm not a pimp like Don. Kidding, kidding... Don is not a pimp. He teaches in tuition classes so he has the $$$ to buy all these stuff. I'd love to peek at his perfume closet~! There's a rumour that says he only buys quality perfume nowadays hoho

We want to rob him.

Waaaa kids nowadays so rich ooo...

3 of us ordered this~! I can't remember the name... erm... chocolate something something.

Yummy~!

Kanak-kanak riang a.k.a Cory

Dudu, the only one who actually ordered coffee~! Mocha something something huhu (seriously I can't remember the name!)

I think when we go someplace, we should try out its speacialty. Like when we go to Secret Recipe, we should eat the cake, Pizza Hut --- pizza, etc but this time, I strayed from my objective. What to do, I love chocolate more than coffee~!

Thanks again Don~!

Wishing everybody around Sabah,

Kotobian Tadau Tagazo do Kaamatan~!

It's automatic

2010-05-30T14:22:00.002+08:00

*I had this saved for a long time (since Feb) but never published it, I dunno why hohoho so now I'm publishing it!*

"Haih... tidak pandai suda sa bawa kereta manual ooo!" I seriously thought my brother was being silly when he said this just months after he bought his new automatic car.

I've only had my Myvi earlier this year. Last month I was driving my dad's manual Unser around KK and...
I sucked at it huhuhu T____T

May update = Now I'm fine driving manuals hohoho I just have to remind myself about the clutch -.-

I was so used to hit the brakes first before changing the gear from 'P' to 'D'~! Whereas when using a manual gear, you have to hit the clutch before changing the gear. Pelaziman la ni konon... Classical conditioning. Terbiasa proses-proses driving an automatic car. Pheww... Pavlov and his dog must be proud of me!

Haha~!

By the way, my brother told me and I read in the newspapers that fuel price is going up (again, sigh). WTH??? This makes me regret buying an automatic car. Grr... why do automatic cars eat a lot more than mauals?

lol literally costing an arm and a leg huhuhu

In a nutshell : )

2010-05-09T09:06:00.002+08:00

30.04.2010 marks the end of practicum number 3 for me huhuhu

It really was a rollercoaster ride. Some ups and downs with the occasional loops. The ups being my observations finished rather quickly, school food was inexpensive and yummy (minus the oil-infested nasi goreng) and the teachers in the school were very nice.

Roti telur, bandung cincau, cendol. Guess which drink is mine? Muahaha of course the pink one~! XD

My other fav. drink here, kitchai ping~!

The downs were my students... haish. Very noisy and wouldn't hand in their works. One very down the hill moment was when a certain lecturer hurt my feelings. Not going to bother telling it here lah. : (

My Mathematics class. This was on Saturday, only a handful of pupils came. Another down --- two Saturday classes for me this practical.

Playing the 'Maths Race' game in class. This class makes me want to be observed everyday because when it comes to me being observed, they suddenly transform into angels (in disguise of course!). I'm always thankful that they behave really good during observations.

Jarod and Abba. The quiet one and the one who is always late. My class usully is the first class in the morning and Abba would always come late, dragging his tired-equipped school bag, as if he just came back from a flight from London.

So, anyway, my students were very nakal right? Last Friday we decided to have a little party, sort of like a farewell party.

The guys trying to pop the 'champagne' hohoho They even put some mentos in.

I was quite overwhelmed because I wasn't expecting it to be quite sad. But yeah, the boys and girls shed some tears, gave me presents eventhough I specifically told them not to give me anything. Some gave letters too.

I'm teaching them how to camwhore.

One letter says , 'Terima kasih cikgu kerana mengajar kami dengan lemah lembut.' Hahaha if ever I was gentle. I think everytime I go to class, I was always nagging and shouting at them. Oh yeah, one thing I've learnt this practical was that my voice is not so loud afterall. With two lecturers telling me that, it ought to be true.

This is a gift from Osman and yes, it is a Ferrero Rocher~! Among others, I received cute teddy bear keychains, a tutu wearing mushroom keychain, pens, biscuits, a pretty notebook, etc.

In the end, the class followed me until I reach the Staff Room. huhuhu very touching~!

Dudu looks like she wants to poo hahaha

During my practical, Dudu, Fun2 and I went to the beach, we were caught in a traffic jam and decided to unwind at the beach huhuhu

Looks like a UFO is coming

We were just in time for the sunset. It was beautiful, I love sunsets hohoho

According to Dudu, there's a bowing man and a slender lady in the cloud. Can you spot them?

Makan time in Year4~! This is my English class.

Arrynchia, Kevenia, Adam and Willsie. I sweae, Arrynchia looks like this in every picture. Wahahaha She's actually a very quiet girl in class.

See, there's Arrynchia again. Arrynchia, me, Britney and Adam.

My English class is pretty okay. At first, they wouldn't keep still and listen to my instructions. But overtime, they learnt to listen.

Wakakakakakakaka~!

The bitten heart. Thanks Fun for biting my heart and giving me that smug look hoho

Altogether now, "Awww...." You guys are in our hearts too~!

I uploaded this picture just to prove what I said earlier. Why didn't I canwhored with Arrynchia???

This is a gift from Cassendra. It's a teddy bear that says 'Best Teacher'. Thanks~!!! : 3

I got an earring too.

Haha you can't really see the earrings

Nah, much more clear.

: ( Yes Adam, it ended too soon!

This is the frame we got the school. Thanks Epa for the idea.

We can't see it but we're standing infront of the table the four of us shared. The teachers prepared a feast for us, which was really super nice of them. We received gifts from the teachers too~!

One thing that I'm thankful for is this magnetic nametag. No more holes on my clothes~! This thing is expensive for a nametag (RM15-RM18) but its worth every cent. It's easy and clean. It's really easy to put them on hohoho but there's always a possibility that this is going to happen...

She was being observed that day too~!!! Wahahahahaha I was so close to not telling her that her nametag is upside down but... decided against it. Kesian ba odia kena observe lagi tu... : )

All that glitters

2010-04-28T10:21:00.000+08:00

Hi guys~!

This is what our table in school looks like huhu... Cramped with four laptop. The thing is, when somebody comes in the staff room, they'll straighforwardly see what I'm doing on the laptop. Huhuhu very hard to FB or play comp games. I was playing 'Plants & Zombies' the other day and Madam Clara was there behind me. Adede...

Gah broad bands~! Sometimes I'd go nuts without 'em hohoho boring bah di bilik guru... Oh the other day I found blings in Lowe's, Karamunsing. Very cheap at that too! RM1.90 for the small ones. And guess what, I blinged my broadband~!!! Hohohoho

Tada~! Shiny shiny shiny shiny shiny shineeeeeeeeeeyyy~!

I sticked some stickers too~!

My laptop has suffered a lot under my reign... just look at those scratches~! Poor lappy... And so, I decided to cover it up in an attempt to make it prettier hohoho

Jeng jeng~! Cute kan? Mwahahahaha I was so happy to cover the dirt and scracth. Unbeknownst to me,

Haiya... when you open it, it's upside down~!!! Pretty silly of me.

Busy X 4574956232 = pimples

2010-04-25T08:29:00.000+08:00

Seems forever since I updated. Busy konon hahahaha

If you think I will post my pimple-infested face, I wont~! Instead, I will give you a pic of my nails~! WTH? haha

I just realized that I love nail arts~!!! <3 <3 <3 This is my first experiment with nail stickers huhuhu

Can you believe that the stickers actually stuck to my nails for a week? Very nice... : )

... and it costs only RM1.50~! I still have lots of leftovers too.

Last last Friday, my girlfriends and I went karaoke-ing huhuhu and had a blast~! We were singing songs that we love, hard songs to sing (Beyonce, Kelly Clarkson, etc) and songs that was so unfamiliar to us. Cory was singing 'Cotton Fields' and rocked the room!

Can see no pimples because of the power of blur pictures~! ngiahahahaha I think this was during 'How do I live?' -LeAnn Rhimes

Fun2 with Cory's forehead hahahaha

I <3 singing~! Ohohohoho I remember when I was young, whenever our family went balik kampung, I will be singing all the way (2hours drive) from Tuaran to Kuala Penyu. Huuuuuu what a torture it must've been for the driver~! hehehe

I haven't been washing my car for what... 2 months~! It's been raining bah... Lazy me will make up this excuse, 'It'll get dirty again after the rain!' ngehehehe

This was in January when I last washed my car (myself) hehehe

It was so dirty, a student of mine can actually write her name accross the window.

Now, my car is back to its dirty state, anybody wants to wash her for me?

Bergaduh tepi jalan (somehow it sounds better than roadside fight huhu)

2010-03-28T18:09:00.000+08:00

Last night was another hell. My proposal needed more ajinomoto, salt, pepper and whatnot. Repairing my proposal demands hardwork [and I'm not a hardworker~!!! : ( ] So, I guess my bed would have to wait. Anyway, I was hammering my head in hopes that it would trigger some fantastic, marvelous, incredible idea out of its nerves and neutrons. When suddenly in the midst of listening to Canon in D, I heard screams.

Somebody was having a huge fight by the road in the middle of the night. It was 1 in the morning. I tried peeking though the window but I only heard the screams but not the people in the fight. I know it was between a man and a woman. Can't comprehend what is being said though. Only heard bits and pieces. The man was shouting loudly but too quick for my ear to catch the words.

My sister (who was upstairs) heard some bits and pieces too. From the upstairs verandah, she saw that there was another man on a motorcycle so she assumed that the man and woman fighting is either husband/wife or bf/gf and the one on the motorcycle is the third wheel (haha!). There was one sentence that she heard clearly:

Man: Kalau kau tidak sayang saya sudah, kau kestau bah! P*ki*a punya perempuan! Tiada guna!

And later he shouted, "Pulanglah! Pulanglah!"

He was really shouting his head off~! Not pleasant to the ears though huhu

The woman was crying so I don't have any idea what she said. She shouted from the top of her lungs though.
About 15 minutes after I first heard them shouting, I had gone back to my laptop (no time for drama, gotta finish the proposal!) and I saw bright blue lights from the window. So the busybody in me peeked outside and saw a police patrol car. I had no guts to peek any longer so I just went on with my business. Screams were no longer heard.

Maybe my neighbours called the police. Cannot tahan the shouting any longer.

This is where they had their fight. Beside the main road, where cars were zooming by. The pink one is my house hehehe They were having that fight very close to the houses. Even cars slowed down to look at them.

Moral of the story? Don't cheat on your loved one! ... thanks for the latenight entertainment, whoever they might be. Got me snapped out of my sleepiness hohoho but being the procrastinator that I am, my proposal is not done~!!! GAH~!!!!!

Tang Yuen me likey~!

2010-02-22T16:33:00.001+08:00

Tang Yuen... Glutinous rice ball. Yum yum...

Tang Yuen is sold in supermarkets (frozen ones, you only have to boil them) but it's so easy to make, you can have it ready to eat in 30 minutes.

Last 2 weeks when I was at kampung, my cousin taught me how to make them. Even kids can do it, the last time I made it, my niece Angie was around and she helped to make the fillings.

You only have to have glutinous rice flour, sugar, water, crushed peanuts (or chocolate, tausa, whatever filling you want), ginger, gula melaka and colouring (if you want).

Mix flour, sugar and water together until you get a dough. If you want to colour the dough, now is the right time to do it.

Then you insert the peanuts...

Make the balls small. They will swell when you boil it later.

After that, boil water and insert the gula melaka and ginger. After a while, put the balls inside. Wait for it to swell (about 5 minutes or less), then it's done~!

The remnants... hoho

I like crushed peanuts but my sister likes the chocolate fillings huhu

I recently made choc fillings huhu yummy (just scrape the chocolates we eat and put it inside)

It's so easy to make, I like~!!!!!

But... I kentut dunno how many times after eating this thing hehehe blame the ginger~! But this dish is good la... easy and sedap~!

Makeover~!

... not me. : ) Though I think I really need one. Been having the same hairstlye (yg x stylish pun!) for centuries~! Will do some other time huhu

My dad, my mum and I went to an auto shop and and got my car some cushion (is it called cushion or seat covers?) and tinted the windows. Twice the owners spoke Chinese with us, which was replied with blur faces by us. They thought we were Chinese. Blame these sepet eyes~! Wuahahaha XD

There were 5 guys working on my car~! My car must feel like those celebrities getting fussed at for a show hahaha

This is a free gift from the auto shop. Cute kan? Looks like kereta kura-kura hoho I wonder why its so pricey? It can't move on it's own, doesn't work on batteries, etc. Guess that's why they give it out as free gifts because nobody would buy them XD

I want to do much more for my car... maybe next time when I have extra $$$. Oh ya, can you guess who paid for the seat covers and tint?

Daddy~!

I seriously am such a money sucking leech~! I swear I will pay you back dad. Next year, for sure. Little by little. You know the saying... sikit-sikit lama-lama jadi bukit bah hoho

Bluek~!

2010-01-23T23:16:00.000+08:00

Upon chatting with an old friend way back from primary school, I got a little bit puzzled and a bit annoyed at the same time.

On 2 different occasion, she said something that rendered me speechless.

#1, She asked me what I was doing during my last semester break. I said I did nothing, went nowhere (no allowance~!) but stayed at home watching tv, fb-ing and taking care of my sister's baby. She responded with this, "Awww... little Judith has grown mature!!! Way to go, nurture that mother instict in you!"

WTH???

#2, I was at home with my brother. Parents were out and I was supposed to put food in my brother's belly before he goes to work. So, during our chat, I said I have to go because I have to cook for my brother. She responded,

"uish..pidith masak..adakah ini tanda tanda ko mo suda dewasa untuk menjadi ibu yang baik??jeng..jeng..jeng"

WTH WTH WTH WTH???

To you, it may sound normal but to me, it's like a giant brick wall falling into me. When I was in primary school I was very childish and would merajuk so much with this friend. We haven't met for years and throughout the years, I think I've changed la kan... Everybody goes through that transformation. She can't expect me to be the same old grumpy kid~!

Besides, me taking care of babies and kids do not make me mature. Ok, maybe a little. For the most, the experience made me more responsible.

I will not hate this friend, I will not chase her with pitchforks and torches... I will however, try to explain to her nicely.... maybe. huhuhu

I luv ice cream~!!!

2010-01-20T22:40:00.000+08:00

I never knew people actually count sheeps when they can't sleep~! I thought it was just some cartoon thing... I just found out that a friend of mine does that when she can't sleep hoho I wonder if she dreams of sheeps hopping a fence too?

Another friend thinks a book is a sleeping pill. She will be in deep sleep before she turns to another page! <--Ninang la ni~!

Another amazing sleeper is Epa. She'll lie down on her bed and 10 seconds later, yep... she's asleep. Real Nobita-like hahahahahaha

As for me...

This is what you see on my bed~! No, I don't highlight my comics. My highlighters just happened to be there.

Sometimes I just cannot get myself to slumberland huhuhuhu Pure torture ok. So instead of tossing and turning in the dark, I read comics, novels, Reader's Digest or just do a couple of sudoku. If that doesn't do the trick, I'll just go downstairs and watch some tv or facebook.

Some people sleep with their eyes open (partially). Meme sleeps like that. She has tricked so many people unknowingly. People will talk to her and sheepishly turn around laughing as they realized that Meme is actually sleeping.

Watched Fun Fun do that hehehe and I didn't tell her Meme was sleeping, just to see how far Fun2 would go. Teehee~!

In-class activity

My new rings and watch

If Mr. Zul saw this, he'd most probably send me to the councellor or worse still, he'll become my councellor himself!

I'd drag this person too~!

Dudu, the ink master~!

Practicum is fast approaching~! I kinda hate practicum... Grrr... Next week is the last week before going out for practicum. Hope for the best and pray that the 3months passes by swiftly and nicely~!

It's hereeeee~!

2010-01-16T12:22:00.000+08:00

Have you ever wished that your eye colour was more interesting? Like those orang putihs got blue, green, hazel eyes huhuhu It's no surprise that I have hohoho Wouldn't it be nice to change your eye colour once in a while?

I'm no orang putih, so I turned to contact lenses~! Some time back, I ordered a pair of lenses from http://www.vivifashion.blogdrive.com/ (the lenses there are pretty cheap~! Mine costs only RM24~! I can't believe it back then)

This is my first contact lense, so instead of going blue or purple... I decided to keep it low and chose brown lenses. Maybe later I'll be more adventurous and wear blue ones hehe

Lenses in bottles. I love playing with the camera. This picture focuses the bottles and makes the blog blur...

While this pic focus on the blog and make the bottles blur hoho

I'm so excited to wear this (kasian ba first time pakai contacts~!).

I have no idea how to insert the thing into my eyes hohoho had to ask my sister to teach me. It was scary huhuuuu I look like I wanted to poke my eye~! Once I inserted the lense, I cried rivers and waterfalls.

But once I get the hang of it, it gradually becomes easier to do. And this is the end product~!

Yes, that's a pyjama. Sorry, I'm so not good with plucking my eyebrows~!!! My eyebrow looks like Shin Chan's~! teehee XD

It came out exactly like I wanted them to... The lenses are not so light in colour hoho It's not too obvious kan? But you know that it's there.

Hehehe when the allowance comes (which probably will come next year... :( damn it), I think I'll buy another one, a blue or green one hehehe

Happy weekend, people~!!! Which I'm spending at home hohoho pathetic but I'm content.

Babai~!!!

Should I...?

2010-01-13T14:54:00.001+08:00

Should I use this ringgit note?

Money is not sufficient in my life (there's a rumour that our allowance will be given in March~!!! Till then, I shall eat sup rumput~! T________T)

This RM50 is a speacial note because it is made to comemorate our nation's 50th independence. If you look closely, it's not the average 50 note.

Special features of this note

There's a writing beside the 50 (low, middle part) that says 1957-2007. Then there's the 50 logo on the upper right area. Mine is so speacial, look at the serial number. If you read it from behind, it's 1957~!!!

I don't know why I kept this thing in the first place. Thought it was special and I should have it hoho And... I secretly thought that if I were to sale this RM50 note later (like in 2020) somebody will buy it from me with a higher value than this note holds. Say... like RM50 000 for this note~! muahahahaha yeah, yeah wishful thinking.

I'd be so rich, I'd wipe my ass with money.

So the dilemma is... should I or should I not use this special (potentially will make me rich in 2020!) RM50 note?

Haiyaaaaa... I'm in dire need for money~!!!

On a different note (pun! XD), hehe my sister paid me RM50 to iron her working clothes for a week~! 4 baju kurungs only~!!! (4, because it was Monday night. Only 4 more days of work for her)

Hmmm... in order to save my special edition RM50 note, maybe I should ask my brother if he needs help ironing his clothes hohoho

Or...

Do YOU need help ironing??? Price is negotiable~! >.<

How do you do?

2010-01-07T22:11:00.000+08:00

Did you know that when someone ask you, "How do you do?" You have to reply, "How do you do?"?

It's like bowing to Japanese people. You bow, I bow, you bow, I bow and it goes on and on huhuhu

Thought this was cute hoho

Anyway, I'm feeling fine. Compared to earlier this week.

I have problems adapting lah

I think it involves a new situation and I just found out that I react poorly to new situation and place.

Well, if I'm positive enough, it should get better and better.

Besides, I have friends bah kan kan kan?

One thing that I've not settled in this semester is one of our lecturers. Haish... he looks so serious, talks so slowly an ant wouldn't hear him and shout "Huh?", and on top of it all, he asks a LOT of questions. Grr...

Makes me feel stupid, uneasy and helpless. Cisss...

I feel...

2010-01-06T00:07:00.001+08:00

... stupid.

Moronly stupid. I hope I didn't make the stupidest decision in my life.

Nothing I can do but hope for the best. Even if I regret this so damn much, it wont turn the hands of time, right?

I completely ignore what people tell me and do what I want (eventhough its crazy, I still did it!). I swear, this is how I'm going to ruin my very existence hoho

Happy Birthday Checel~!

2010-01-02T11:59:00.000+08:00

My sister and I leeched on our aunt and uncle hehehe They belanja-ed us at Promenade for their daughter's birthday huhuhuhu I was embarrassed to go alone (they were supposed to have dinner themselves but Checel asked me to come hehe) but my sister came to my rescue~! (she thick faced-ly asked my aunt to be belanja-ed! <--- super polution of the English Language!)

Behold, the power of a blogger~! Muahahahaha

Because it was kinda last minute, I didn't get to bring a camera with full battery... haiya. I decided to snap pictures without the flash in hopes to save the battery. But it made the pictures blurry... T_T

Sister, birthday girl & cousin Jessie. Jessie was coincidently there (dating huahuahuahua).

BUT, I made sure I snapped the food with flash hehehe I'm twisted hohoho I know.

So, we got there at around 7.50pm and straightaway made a beeline towards the buffet.

My appetizer. Some fruits, sushi, salami and salad. (Bell pepper, cucumber and long beans are the only veggy I eat~!) I never knew salami would taste oh-so-wonderful~! Yummy~!

My main course

It doesn't look like much but I can assure you it's very good~! At buffets, I usually try to take a small portion of every single thing (except.... yeah, veggies!) and my plate ends up looking like this huhuhu Did you notice my rice is actually 2 different rices? The one on the left is nasi ayam and the one on the right is our usual steamed rice. I didn't see the chicken rice before huhuhu

Dessert~! >.<

My favourite part of meal~! hehehe they have lots and lots of selection here, I totally went crazy hehe Rambang mata ooo... It's not only a feast for my appetite, but it was also a feast for my eyes. The desserts are very pretty and well made. Conveniently, they were cut in small proportions (so we can try every single cake!).

From appetizers, main course and dessert, Promenade offers a kaleidoscope of choices. Plus, the staff was friendly and helpful hoho

All this is possible because...

The birthday girl

This girl asked me to come. Happy Birthday Chechel~! And ofcourse aunty and uncle who belanja us hohoho

This is my last post...

2009-12-31T11:19:00.000+08:00

... of the year. hehe : p

Huuuu… I can’t believe 2009 is about to close its curtains. 2009 went by so fast. It was new year 2009, my 1st practicum, Kris Allen won American Idol, assignments, H1N1 came, 2nd practicum, exam, Tiger Woods cheated on his wife, haik… it’s going to be another new year lagi~!

My 2009 Recap:

I’ve always wanted people to ask me, “Do you wanna hear the good news or the bad news?” Then I’d say, “Bad news.” Hohoho

So that’s why, I’ll recap on the bad things first.

a) In January, I had to retake my calculus exam.

Was worried like hell.

b) At the same time, I had some problems with the hostel. The lecturer was such a ~~bitch~~ snob. Wanted her ass to be kissed. Ceh, I'm no ass kisser. <--- very-very harsh but this is how I feel about her huhu

c) Again, with the hostel. You see our hostel is divided into 2, the one below the hill and the one on the hill. We lived in the below hostel and were asked to move to the hostel on the hill. Huu… our stuff is not sedikit okay… And then in the middle of semester, our room was told to be emptied and we had to move to the upper floor. Grrr…

d) I missed The Cheapskates trip to Sipadan Island~! I was saving for my HK trip.

e) HK trip cancelled~! Due to H1N1. Double boo~! Kasian...

f) Had butterfingers and dropped the car key into a dirty and smelly drain~!

g) Practicum is hell. 2009 gave me 2 practicums~!!! T_T

With my year 2 kids hohoho

h) Allowance in lump-sum. 6 months worth of allowance is given in one go. WTH?!

Since then, I found myself so broke, I can practically see my purse shrink like a raisin. I think there’s even a spider web inside. That's how poor I am huuuuu....

i) MQA. Money suckers and time killer~! I hate... making folders from Semester1 was a pain in the ass. At that time we weren't pushed to complete our folders (so being the lazy students we are, we didn't).

j) Quit Japanese class : ( I wanted to learn more but what to do, the place was far and money continued to go extinct in my world.

Haih… feel so down la typing about things that bothers me….

These kept me up throughout the year~!
a) Got myself a new handphone and digital camera~!

b) Participated in KAGUM at Johore.

Panas... hehe Nora looks like someone from Southpark~!

Shame on me, I don’t know what KAGUM is (Kejohanan …somethingsomething... Malaysia). Basically all the wakil from each Institut Perguruan in Malaysia will compete with each other. Sort of like the IP Olympics. I participated in badminton.

My doubles partner, Scholastica.

I think her name is cool. We lost, but it was a great experience. Though she's younger than me, we had a blast chatting, gossiping and we love to eat~!!!

Our captain in red~!

c) A Night to Remember~!
Our Maths Dinner huhuhu I was not expecting much when I booked the hotel party room but I was utterly surprised at the stage (can I call it that hehe), it was beautiful, with the lights and all.

Obviously taken from Elly's fb

I seriously thought they would just make the 'A Night to Remember' with polystrene. But nooo.... hehehe it was pretty~!

I won the game~! hehehe where you have to stop dancing when the music stops huhuhu

d) Played violin for the first time in my life~! I like playing the violin huhuhu But piano is my love.

e) I turned 22~!

I murdered Mr. Krabs. Spongebob is now my slave huohoho

f) Worked at my dad’s rubber plantation site (hahaha he just started to plant the rubber plants!)

The makeshift bridge was scary~! But still can pose there huhu

g) Started Japanese Language class~! Enrolled with Cory, Dudu, and Epa. Yoshie sensei was very animated and everything she does is cute hohoho

h) Moved out from the historic hostel into an apartment with 5 of my friends.

i) Planned some trips with friends and family for 2010. Hope nothing goes wrong, no epidermic like swine flu, whale flu or something will break out.

j) My sister gave birth to a baby girl, Davienna~! Now I have 2 nieces and 1 nephew huhuhu

My sister and Davienna~!

I hope 2010 will be an even more wonderful year~! (I hope my daruma doll works~! Ngiahahaha) Have a happy, eventful, great new year 2010~! <3

I think life is like a road. Through each turn, hills and road blocks, its best shared with friends and family. And sometimes strangers too... incase our car broke down and we need to hitch-hike~!

I <3 this pic, I dunno why huhu It's like we were searching for Mr. Krabs together.

I'm suddenly strucked by reality

2009-12-30T16:53:00.000+08:00

Time flies? Huhuhu

Urgh... the ugly truth, or whatever you may call it. Class starts next week~!

Upon reading Jamilah's blog, I realized that time for my carefree days are ticking away... huhuhu : (

No more lazy-ing all day, internet 24/7, free home food... That's not gonna happen in the coming weeks. Geez...

The thing I hate will come the week after the new semester starts, practicum~! If there's one thing that ticks me off more than rude drivers, it's practicum. haih... practicum sucks.

Well, on a side note, New Year is fast approaching~! The start of a new day, some people call it. A day to make a resolution, start doing something new, abandon a bad habit, ... just to get a fresh start at life.

Me?

I just want my school holiday~! Teehee... Let's tangkap the time~!

Milo ping? (and pretty toilets hehe)

2009-12-27T19:43:00.001+08:00

Ohohoho as I'm typing, I just sipped my milo sejuk (I call it that)~!!! wuhuuuuu absolute satisfaction~! Instead of wallowing in self-pity, I decided to enjoy a nice cup of milo sejuk. <3 <3 <3 Milo sejuk~!!!

It's super easy to make hehe Put some milo in the cup along with susu pekat/sugar (whichever you like) and pour cold water. Voila~! You're done. In my case, I like to put some more milo on top hehe

This is silly, teaching people how to make milo. The other day, my mum dissed a certain cooking magazine because they were teaching people how to fry fish. "Who doesn't know how to fry a fish?!", my mum said incredulously.

Epa likes milo. She said it's so yummy yum yum but it makes her poo hard. lol That's not the case for me, milo sejuk makes me go visit the toilet (I already have the urge to do #2 now hoho).

I googled for pretty toilets and what I noticed that people make all sorts of interesting urinals for men but none for women.

Dreamt of skiing? Why don't take a dump and sky at the same time?

Shell shaped. Wonder if you lean close and put your ear beside the opening, can you hear the crashing of waves on the beach?

Looks pretty scary and dirty~!

Oh look, one of her teeth is gold-coloured~! Don't forget to smile while you pee guys, you can pay for your picture at the entrance. Gah... wouldn't that be freaky~!

His shirt is cute~! Pandaaaaaa~!

Comes with live fish too~!

Naughty~!

School toilet, maybe?

I'd imagine Barn Buddy's office toilet is like this hoho

My fav~! Bling toilet huhuhu

Imagine cleaning this baby.... XD

Most of the pictures I took from this site huhuhu http://nowthatsnifty.blogspot.com/2009/05/unique-and-strange-toilets-and-urinals.html There's even a dissapearing toilet~! Go check it out huhu

p/s: Dunno why the pictures wont go to the center...

Freaks me out~!

2009-12-26T21:32:00.002+08:00

If you've been my passenger before, you'll know that when I drive, I'm very noisy hahaha not noisy chitchatting but noisy cursing other drivers hohoho

I hate rude drivers.

I just don't have the courage or boldness to let it out like this uncle hohoho

Gah... Here's my top 10 drivers that I hate (I can only think to 10~! >.<)
They're not in chronological order huhu I just typed as I recalls the a**hol*s that raged me : )

1. Drivers talking on a cellphone or talking with the passengers.

Most of the time, people who talks on the cell would slow down like reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaly slow down, an L driver puts them to shame. Does handsfree rings a bell?

2. Changing lanes without giving out signals.

The signal was made with a purpose you know. I hate it that when I'm going 90km/hour on the highway and suddenly there's a car swerving into my lane. Geez~! It freaks me out okay. What's more, the dude casually drives ever so slowly in front of me. WTH!!!!!

3. Perasan he's going over the speed limit. Drives slowly on the right side of the road. What makes it worse? Another car driving slowly on the left side (he's not doing anyting wrong though, he IS on the left side). So, the two cars drive side by side, leaving you no choice but to follow their stride. : (

4. Drivers who wants to sniff my butt so much. They go so fast, eventhough the left lane is completely car-less they don't wanna overtake me. I say, sniff my butt j*ckas*~! I ain't changing lanes for you.

Too close for comfort

5. There was this one time, the car was moving slowly so in my logic mind, I overtake him lah. Then, the car suddenly moved so fast, like the driver was suddenly blessed with super driving skills and started to sniff my butt (no.4 once again). After so long, (I wasn't going to budge!) he finally overtake me and went way ahead, but not before giving me a look that says 'You pathetic girl, eat my fart!'.

6. Mean drivers are everywhere~! I remember when I still got that red P sticker, they like to stare like I'm some kind of retard. As far as I know, I didn't do anything wrong. Back then, whenever my mom was driving the car, she would take down the stickers huhuhu

7. Drivers who takes too much space to park. Some would park his car using 2 parking lots.

Speaking of parking, huh... getting a parking spot in KK is a headache! I once drove to Segama and went round and round looking for a parking spot. My mum and I decided to just go home without ever leaving the car~! hohoho

Wouldn't this be nice?

8. Car that makes too big of a noise. It annoys me to the max~!

9. Drivers who drives on the shoulder of the road. What's the hurry? Everyone needs to hurry too ba... I hate it that I'm so skema and gets bullied by people who makes their own lane (shoulder of road). T.T

10. Lastly, I hate the road. The roads here is full with pot-holes and its uneven, sometimes I'd feel roadsick (if I'm not the one behind the wheel) travelling around.

Hehehehe I do make some of the offences I listed. I try not to because I become irate when others do it huhu

I just hope nobody would flash me the finger~! (>.<)

Warning: If you're tired and sleepy, don't drive~! Please take a break and get some rest. Value your life (and the people who are counting on you for their life).

Merry Christmas guys~!

2009-12-24T09:48:00.000+08:00

I wish all of you a merry and joyful Christmas~!!!

I'll go to church on Christmas Eve(eh, that's tonight huhu) and on the 25th, mmm... haven't planned anything yet. I guess I'll just be home. I know, I know, my life is as empty as my bank account.

Guess I'll just enjoy these last days of my break away from studying again. Gah... suddenly there's a rainy cloud above my head. T.T

Anyway, the new year is coming. Have you thought of your new year resolution? (I might!)

Till my next post, muuuuahhhh~!

Make your wish come true

2009-12-23T15:31:00.001+08:00

Ahh... been so down these days. Lots of problem (75% money problem hoho) and sometimes I just can't sleep thinking how to solve the problems. Aaargh... I hope everything turns out right without me sacrificing a kidney, left ear and a gall bladder.

Anyway, I bought a Daruma doll (Dharma doll) the other day.

This is a Daruma Doll. Huhu I've seen this doll before in numerous Japanese dramas and animes. So what is this doll all about?

"Regarded more as a talisman of good luck to the Japanese. Daruma dolls are seen as a symbol of perseverance and good luck, making them a popular gift of encouragement." -Wikipedia

Daruma doll comes in different sizes. The kanji beneath the face reads chikara which means strength.

I bought my Daruma from Daiso. I thought it was a good decoration item. Plus, maybe it can make my dream come true hoho Here's how you use the Daruma doll. You make a wish, then you paint the Daruma's right eye. Like so:

My Daruma. I don't know what the kanji says hoho

You can only paint the other eye when you get what you wish for. I think this doll acts as a means for us to keep track of our goals or big tasks and motivates us to work to the finish. In this way, every time we see the one-eyed Daruma, we recall the goal. One explanation how this custom started says that in order to motivate Daruma-san to grant your wish, you promise to give him full sight once the goal is accomplished.

My wish? Hoho I won't tell... but what if it comes true? I will definitely, positively and surely tell~!!! If it didn't, well I guess Daruma-san will have to be one-eyed lah huhuhu Don't worry Daruma-san, I'm not so mean, I'll get you an eye patch~! : )

I love objects like this hohoho The things I like when I go to shops is to look at the lucky cat, Maneki Neko. You know, the one that waves its arm as if calling you to buy that RM1++ shoes~! Grrr... no wonder I'm penniless. : (

This Maneki Neko waves it's left arm. It is supposed to call customers.

This one waves it's right arm, which is to beckon fortune, money, etc.

If I put a lot Maneki Neko infront of my house, would it attract a lot of money???

Fancy a drive?

2009-12-22T17:18:00.000+08:00

I remember the feeling of driving a car for the first time. It was so fun and self-satisfying~! Long, long time ago, my sister and I used to sneak behind my dad and drive our car (a green Mitsubishi Gallant, not the new version, the really old one!) and tried reversing it, stop and making it go forward into the garage. ohohohoho

I was 13 years old when I first drove the car just reverse and forward again and again~! Such an adrenaline rush~! (both because of the excitement of driving and you'll never know when dad would wake up from his afternoon nap!). Gradually, I got braver and drove around the housing area just round and round and round... : )

So, when I first got my lisence, I was proud to drive my mom or sister around hohohoho My mom and sister was happy to let me, I always wondered why they didn't want to drive. Ceh, such an innocent thought huhu

Nowadays, I'm so sick of driving. So much that to even move the car is such a hassle to me. If I had a little sister or brother, I'd ask him/her to drive me around muahahahaha

The driver

You see, we have 4 cars in our household and we have such a small space for parking and we have to stack the cars in 2X2 manner. So, when my brother's car is parked infront and my sister's car is blocking him, guess who is told to go and move the car? Yeah, you guessed right, moi.

Driving in the rain. I was at a parking lot waiting for my mom hoho

Huhuhu my sister's car is seriously over-pooh-ed.

I wonder how is it to be driven around. I think being an heiress is such an incredible thing~! Tons of money, have drivers to drive you around and pick you up, people to do everything for you... wow~! Huuuuu... just dreaming about it is wonderful~!

Finally???

2009-12-20T22:33:00.000+08:00

Let's face it, I never win contests.

I suck at making slogans.

Never had good luck.

Not creative enough.

Kit Kat contest, Maggi contest, Walls contest, you name it, I never win any.

4D? Hmmmph... yeah, right.

My dad is luckier, he won Shell's more kilometer contest. He won RM300 worth of gas.

Me? *Big sigh*

So, I was surprised when I saw this while eating ice-cream~!!! ohohohoho

Weeeeee~!

I finally won something???

Oh wait a minute, let's take a closer look at that thing~!

WTH~!!!

30th September was centuries ago~!

What kind of luck is this?!
T_T
