Desperately Wanting,

2010-12-29T20:04:00.003+08:00

December to last longer and that this month will be a compulsory holiday period for everyone.

Despite the wanting, sometimes we'll just have to roll with it. Another 2 more days to 2011. I wonder what's in store for me on New Year's Eve.

I was in Midvalley yesterday and I saw a shop's poster saying "Cherish 2011".

I mean, shouldn't we cherish 2010 instead as it's coming to an end already? Weird poster that is.

Oh well, I can't stop thinking about Sushi Zanmai today. I want chicken katsu donnnnn. Or ebi donnnnn. Gah, saya mao!

A Splashing Time!

Where art thou, oh Christmas market?

2010-11-12T12:02:00.008+08:00

I'd like to go to a German Christmas market please. It looks so gorgeous - the lights and stalls and all that brilliant atmosphere! Some markets even have carousels! Like the one in Frankfurt (the picture below). I'd really like to try bangers, and mash, and sauerkraut too. omnomnomnoms. I can feel the excitement already, what 'bout you!?

Can you believe it? Christmas is only in a month or so! :D

Look at all the pictures below, how can you not get excited for Christmas, even if you're not officially celebrating it!? woots woots.

Oh maiii oh maiii!

Paramore was AWHHHHSOMEEEEEEE on Tuesday night! Even words could not describe the blast of energy and music and roars of the crowd that night. I am sho shooo glad to be part of the 8000 Malaysian fans present! :D

Hayley rocked the stage with those great vocals of hers and the head-banging moments, while the others played awesome music and jumped high in the air with those electric guitars. Oh, and not to forget ze best drummer evah! :) The acoustic session was great too. And when 'The Only Exception' came on, the whole stadium had glowsticks, lighters and mobile phones in the air, and the sight of it was UH-MAZE-INGGGG! I will never forget that.

IT WAS ZE BEST CONCERT EVAH!

wouldn't miss it for anything and I wish it's 19th of October again.

ps: I didn't have my camera with me, thus the not-so-good picture quality :/

the curious case of the dog in the night-time

2010-10-09T13:11:00.003+08:00

"Mrs Forbes said that hating yellow and brown is just being silly. And Siobhan said that she shouldn't say things like that and everyone has favourite colours. And Siobhan was right. But Mrs Forbes was a bit right, too. Because it is sort of being silly. But in life you have to take lots of decisions and if you don't take decisions you would never do anything because you would spend all your time choosing over things you could do. So it is good to have a reason why you hate some things and you like others. It is like being in a restaurant like when Father takes me out to a Berni Inn sometimes and you look at the menu and you have to choose what you are going to have. But you don't know if you are going to like something because you haven't tasted it yet, so you have favourite foods and you choose these, and you have foods you don't like and you don't choose these, and then it is simple."

From the point of view of an autistic character, Christopher Boone, in a novel by Mark Haddon.

Mmmhmm

2010-09-27T19:06:00.002+08:00

Please remind me to do this the next time it rains.

I know I should study, but

This is how lifeless you get when you're spending the weekend in the hostel, I'm not finished yet, during EXAM season. AND NO ONE'S GIVING OUT HELIUM BALLOONS!

Like hello? I dropped 1 729 343 236 of hints that I wanted helium balloons :(

And John Mayer's not very helpful at this time. Why are you singing about broken hearts and assassins and being perfectly lonely, John? Are you depressed most of the time you write your songs? Please come to me during my consultation hours. I'll cheer you up and you'll be singing like Jason Mraz in no time ;)

I've checked Facebook and Twitter updates like a gazillion time - nothing seems to amuse me anymore. There's nothing interesting! Come onnnn people, update something. Bet you have some awesome quotes waiting to be blurted out. I'm sick of being the one posting colourful pictures and my thoughts online. It's your turn. Entertain me come come!

On another note, I love NatGeo. Ze best website to go to when you're bored. Sho many awheshome pictures to look at. Now don't make me go there. I wouldn't budge once I look at those pictures.

This leads to a new ambition of mine: NatGeo's photographer!

Like how awesome is that. Every picture will have a caption with my name :))))

Sighs. No harm to dream big eh?

My besties are at Aeon right now. And where am I? Oh right, lonely ol' hostel. I wish I was at Aeon. I wish my exams had ended last week. I wish I can send my bestie off to KLIA. I wish, I wish. :/ Alison, I'm gonna mish you so muchhh. :'(

Whoah, whoah!

2010-09-25T20:19:00.003+08:00

This is Biscayne National Park, Florida.

When I've earned enough in the future, I'll come to you babeh!

Helium Hearts

2010-09-21T14:07:00.004+08:00

Awhhh, I wish helium balloons are distributed around the university. Especially during the exam season. I just heard 'Helium Hearts' by Jason Reeves and I absolutely love it! :)))

When I was young, I had an unstoppable obsession over pretty helium balloons. My parents claimed they had to avoid helium balloon stands every time we go out. But the balloons are so pretty; how could you resist?! And I think I still have that strange liking for helium balloons.

Will you be ever so sweet to get me one? :)

I Have Fran Fine's Voice Today

2010-09-12T22:58:00.002+08:00

That was what I posted on Facebook this noon and it's gotten a pretty good amount of feedbacks; some saying how much they love the show and Fran, one requesting for a recording, and another suggesting to be in a full-Fran-getup. :)

It's indeed fun doing "Nilessss" and "Mr Sheffieldddd", but I want my voice back. Where art thou? :(

I can't speak in the right intonation now and the throat is annoyingly itchy most of the time.

I can't sing songs too. wuwu. oh, except for John Mayer's "Bigger Than My Body". I can do the chorus well ;)

Oh, yes. I highly recommend this song.

Kthxbai. Need to bury my head in MA2. nuuuesss!

Crayons

2010-09-03T19:22:00.002+08:00

"Life is like a box of crayons"

I saw this statement that Navin posted on Facebook.

"So does it mean that life is colourful?"

I asked him that, and I got the full quote from him, which was actually from John Mayer.

Life is like a box of crayons. Most people are the 8-color boxes, but what you're really looking for are the 64-color boxes with the sharpeners on the back. I fancy myself to be a 64-color box, though I've got a few missing. It's okay though, because I've got some more vibrant colors like periwinkle at my disposal. I have a bit of a problem though in that I can only meet the 8-color boxes. Does anyone else have that problem? I mean there are so many different colors of life, of feeling, of articulation.. so when I meet someone who's an 8-color type.. I'm like, "hey girl, magenta!" and she's like, "oh, you mean purple!" and she goes off on her purple thing, and I'm like, "no - I want magenta!"

I guess, we're constantly searching for something extraordinary.

Nothing from the 8-colour boxes; something which is of a rare find.

And we too have regrets and mistakes - the missing colours - but we want to be perfect.

My Paintbrush is Mine

2010-09-01T10:58:00.004+08:00

I kinda miss my paintbrush.

I miss the many strokes of the brush;

The many colours it leaves on the white sheet of art paper.

I might not be a magnificent artist.

But at the end of the day, when you look at what you've scrawled and coloured,

you've accomplished something.

You're satisfied.

Sometimes, I look at the Art majors with envy.

If I am an Art major, will I look at things differently?

I might look at the world with words as indicators, describing people and places with summarisation of the 26 alphabets we know by heart.

I might look at the world with colours as indicators, instead of numbers and

policies and law and numbers again. Heck, I don't see numbers actually. Thank goodness. I still see colours.

Wait.

I am doing these things eventhough I am not an Art major.

I don't have to envy anyone.

I still see colours and think of words and let my mind wander off occasaionally.

I still enjoy music though I'm not learning the art of composing.

I still enjoy literature though I'm not learning about Shakespeare and the likes of it.

I can still paint because the paintbrush is mine.

Ahhhhhhhh!

2010-08-24T18:12:00.001+08:00

We were all once this little! :)

Picnic!

2010-08-15T12:15:00.003+08:00

I was a French exchange student visiting the Putrajaya Food Bazaar last Wednesday. Hoho :)

Bonjour, everyone!

Last Wednesday was a good day. Er, aside from the Business Law test that I decide to stamp it as 'okay'. Hehs. Thank goodness the test ended at 5pm and we made it to the Food Bazaarrr, where we were all spoilt for choices.

A tip on what to buy when you're spoilt for choices:

Sarah and I concluded that we should just follow our noses. Buy the food that smells the most appealing to you, though errr, everything smells good! ;)

And I had my very first picnic with friends! Call me jakun, but I've not had a decent picnic with friends before. I wonder why we didn't think of such a thing to do last time when we were in secondary school. Oh, come to think of it, we didn't have a car and the freedom to go out any time we want back then. Awh, we're such goody two shoes. Children these days should learn from us - they're such pampered brats that my brother's friend who's 14 years old has an iPad. WTH! you may say.

4 and 20 hours

2010-08-09T10:34:00.005+08:00

I had ze most wonderful time last Saturday, aside from being squashed in the KTM's massive crowd like a super compact can of tuna. I hate the KTM because it is always late and jam-packed with people during the peak hours.

Malaysia, how can you ever improve any further? Please have trains at 10-minute-intervals at least. Pfft.

Anyway, the Malacca people came up to KL last Saturday and the Cyberjaya people sacrificed their Business Law study time to have a mini-reunion with the gang. And then I had an unproductive Sunday. Oh well :/ I had a good time on Saturday though.

We surprised Esther and Adeline with their birthday presents - Esther with a brand new purse, and Adeline with a Topshop tee and a belt! Hoho. Photos are all available on Facebook. :)

Arrrrgust

2010-08-03T21:52:00.004+08:00

Gosh, it's August already!

Time flies, oh, time really flies. I am not happy the time flew so fast. Not happy. Not happy. :/

Just give me a mellow one month. sighs.

This was one of the pictures that popped up when I googled 'August'. Sadly, I've only watched part of the movie. Okay, the August resolution is to watch "August Rush". Badabing!

On top of that, do you know Jensen Ackles sings? mmmm. :)

"Crazy Love - Jason Manns ft. Jensen Ackles"

kthxbai.

The Outsiders - S.E. Hinton

2010-07-31T12:35:00.007+08:00

"The Outsiders"

I just realised that the novel we're about to study for English this semester was actually made into a movie starring Tom Cruise, Patrick Swayze, and Matt Dillon! My lecturer did pick a good book :)

Just looking at the promo picture for the movie sends my enthusiasm to read soaring high! The casts are so bad-boy-looking and awesome I can't wait to read. A few words are starting to pop up in my head already - brawny, lean, gangly, rugged - hahs, I am ready for some fights described in words. Teehee.

Oh, "The Outsiders" is one of S.E. Hinton's best selling books and the synopsis goes something like this:

According to Ponyboy, there are two kinds of people in the world: greasers and socs. A soc (short for "social") has money, can get away with just about anything, and has an attitude longer than a limousine. A greaser, on the other hand, always lives on the outside and needs to watch his back. Ponyboy is a greaser, and he's always been proud of it, even willing to rumble against a gang of socs for the sake of his fellow greasers--until one terrible night when his friend Johnny kills a soc. The murder gets under Ponyboy's skin, causing his world to crumble and teaching him that pain feels the same whether a soc or a greaser.

The only thing left for me to do now is to purchase the book. I'm coming for ya!

YAY! YAY! YAY!

I Still Love Bears

2010-07-28T22:23:00.002+08:00

Today's Star newspaper read "Joyriding Bear Destroys Teen's Car." But all the bear wanted was the peanut butter sandwich at the back seat!

Yahoo News:

DENVER (Reuters) – A black bear attracted by the smell of a peanutbutter sandwich managed to open the door of a car, climb in and got stuck, knocking the gear stick into neutral and sending the car rolling down a slope into trees.

The blare of the car horn alerted the members of the Story family who realized 17-year-old Ben's Toyota was no longer parked in the driveway of their home in Larksspur near Denver.

When they went to explore they discovered the car and trapped culprit at the bottom of the hill -- a giant bear with teeth bared and claws tearing through the car's interior.

The bear was trapped inside the car for two hours before police were able to release the animal who ran off into nearby woods.

Ben and his sister Becky said the bear was likely lured into the car by a certain scintillating scent.

"There was a peanut butter sandwich in the back seat," Ben told reporters, adding that his car was ruined.

(Reporting by Katharine Jackson of Reuters Television, Editing by Belinda Goldsmith)

Poor bear.. I bet he was frightened when the car crashed into the trees. :/

Nevertheless, I STILL LOVE BEARS :)

Horidays

2010-07-24T12:59:00.003+08:00

Iz having horidays nao!

The midterm break to be exact. But what's a break if it's gonna be stuffed up with assignments, homework, case studies, and midterm test preparations? Fun = zero.

But, I am trying to make out the best of it. Will try my best to go for BFFL's musical on the coming Thursday! yahoos to musicals! I'd really like to participate in one someday ;)

This should be the ideal way of spending the holidays. sighs.

Anyway, I am currently really addicted to the song Paperweight - Joshua Radin & Schuyler Fisk.

It is so good!

This Is For My Hip Swinger Friend ;)

2010-07-21T00:21:00.006+08:00

I'm thinking of keeping my posts short because that would be much easier to read, no? Well, unless I have a sudden inspiration to tell about my day from the moment I rise from bed until the moment I have a decent shut-eye.

Hmmm, I have a sudden longing to be writing fictional essays like how I used to in high school exams. Call me nerdy, but my thoughts are straying now so every paragraph would be pretty random.

'Shyen, swing your hips'

said the mom to her daughter. HAHAHA. Oh well, knowing Shyen is not very un-stiff. :P

And so I googled 'hip swinger' and Tom Jones hogged the result page. Is Tom Jones famous for hip-swinging?

Oh I really miss the beach, that I penned down a paragraph about seagulls and seaturtles on the table when I finished the AIS2 paper a half hour earlier. :/ Not like I can reenact the exact same view I have in my head in someplace here in Malaysia. But I wish to lay on the beach watching the bright white wings of the seagulls flapping in the sky while breathing in the salty air as the wind whipped through my hair. And wriggle my toes in between the fine grains of the sand. Hah.

Not exactly what I had in mind.. but the seagulls are there oh well.

The Animal Blog

2010-07-15T10:24:00.003+08:00

I found The Animal Blog's link posted by Nabila on Liyana Malto's wall, and they have some of the cutest-ever animal pictures! They're all so adorable :))))

Hedgehog, phail!

The Swim Partner

2010-07-13T22:10:00.001+08:00

Yay! I found a swim partner for this semester! All the more reasons to go swimming :D

Matsushita Home Bakery. Pfft.

2010-07-10T20:00:00.002+08:00

I've been staring at the laptop screen, my notes, the case, and back to the screen again. It's a whole cycle. :/ And I've been typing - oh yes I have. But why does it have to be so freaking long to solve one question?! And to think that I'd have to go through this routine every week until end of September, I would've become a deflated balloon by then. All energy worn out and granola bars out of stock in supermarkets. Nahhh, I really hope not.

I miss my carefree time back in high school. I can't believe I thought I didn't have enough time in high school. I'd rather be writing lab reports at this point of time than typing case studies answers. This semester practically spells "not enough time". Pfft. I hate youuuu! But ironically, this semester is pretty fun - I don't know why - but I didn't feel so bad like the previous semesters. Maybe it's because I have my Fridays off and my BFFL is back from London and I'm involved in stuff and all. Ohhhh. Now I love you this sem!

Gahh, so much up my sleeve I've got to go now. Internet connection is such a guilty pleasure.

Kthxbai.

Head Banging Time

2010-07-07T01:42:00.001+08:00

I want to do this,

with an electric guitar :D

Deep Purple

2010-07-03T10:16:00.003+08:00

Whoah, Alison's mom so cool she listens to rock! But she criticises Alison's choice in music, I think Paramore? which my brothers also deemed noisy. But hey, Paramore's a good head banging shouting rock stress relieve. ps: not all the songs are loud and noisy. they're awesome. :D

Anyway, I was in the car yesterday with Alison's mom driving me back home, and it was Track 3 from Deep Purple that really caught my attention!

Remember that common electric guitar beat that all the rockin' guitarists play as starters/beginners/something like that? You might remember it from School of Rock (Jack Black). Yep, it's Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water" :)

Rockin' old men. HAHAS.

Oh, I have a new aspiration - I want to learn how to play electric guitar!

Gloom

2010-06-29T15:00:00.002+08:00

The weather today says that it is a stay-in-room day. No swimming for the day I suppose. :/

The weather today is the IDEAL weather for sleeping in, be a couch potato, and whatever activity that makes you move like a sloth.

The weather today indirectly tells me to study for tomorrow's business law quiz and get those pending knowledge economy work done. Oh, and probably a report from last week's event - if I have enough time.

Oh, what a weather.

Sometimes I wish MMU Cyberjaya is by the beach. Most of the time, actually. Then my friends and I can lounge at the dunes doing case study discussions all day long and I won't complain.

Kthxbai.

Toy Story 3!

2010-06-22T16:15:00.003+08:00

Everyone's so hyped up about this that I've got to watch it!

Oh Friday come come come.

Looking Like Tumblr Now

2010-06-15T12:49:00.006+08:00

Yep, I changed my blog layout - which pretty much looks like Tumblr. Only because I saw a new template design at blogger.com and my old layout is rather stale now.

I was wondering if the layout will look any better like this:

Anyway, let me introduce my latest interest...

SUN BEARS!

The picture above is of a pair of sun bear cubs, Pagi and Palu, from the San Diego Zoo. The sun bears take their name from the golden bib-shape patch on their chest, which legend says represents the rising sun. Sun bears are the smallest member of the bear family.

And, they are so cute and playful - at least for those that I saw in the local zoo :) I went to the Malacca Zoo last Saturday and developed this new found interest because one of the sun bears was a total attention seeker while another was sniffing a pair of socks. Aww. Lols.

Am totally loving the photos on NatGeoPhotography!

She leaned forward again. "My dad always said that when you're struggling with something,

look at all the people around you and realize that every single person you see is struggling with something,

and to them, it's just as hard as what you are going through."

Dear John by Nicholas Sparks

Shoobeedoowappaaa..

2010-05-03T16:02:00.004+08:00

Listening to good music is therapeutic. Well, most of the time.

Like when you turn twenty, you feel like listening to
"While we're young and beautiful,
Kiss me like you mean it,
Treat me like I'm special,
Cover me with sweetness"
Carrie Underwood - We're Young and Beautiful

Like when you miss your best friends, you listen to
"Every day can be a Saturday evening,
Celebration especially when
Every day is just another good reason to keep on kickin' with you"
Jason Mraz - Kickin' With You

Like when things don't go your way, you'd think that
"It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away"
U2 - Beautiful Day

Like when you relax and laze with
"Three little birds, sat on my window
And they told me I don't need to worry
Summer came like cinnamon, so sweet
Little girls double-dutch on the concrete"
Corinne Bailey Rae - Put Your Records On

Ahhh, good music.

Kays, got to switch to the nerdy mode ASAP. ;)

Number of Hours You Need for Sleep

2010-04-15T21:45:00.002+08:00

*wish i could get this massive amount of sleep.

J'étudie Français

2010-03-31T22:01:00.005+08:00

It's 10:22pm and I should start studying for tomorrow's French quiz. Sighs.
I was once so free. So free from the troubles clouding my mind. If you're wondering what troubles - assignments. Pfft. In complicated relationships with assignments right now. Relationshipssss mind you. And that is a plural.

I've once said "there's no use whining about the 'should have's" and I've been right. But how can one erase this thought off their heads? No matter what you do, you'll still be thinking about should haves - whether you liked your decisions or not. This is sickening.
But I should have started earlier. Period.

Anyway, I don't like emo posts. I don't want to be the-girl-who-only-blogs-about-sad-stuff.

So I'll tell you something.
No one would understand how much a Father loves his Daughter.

The Lovely Bones.

"These were the lovely bones that had grown around my absence:
the connections — sometimes tenuous, sometimes made at great cost,
but often magnificent — that happened after I was gone."

It's a pretty good movie. Each sentence touches your heart, well mostly, and makes you shed a tear or two when you could understand how much pain and grieve when a family member loses another. Especially the bond between father and daughter. There were scenes that gave some food for thought too. Keeps you thinking. :)
The story made me think about how much Dad loves me and I am really grateful.

Go catch this movie. I heard the ratings were good.

Okays. Gonna go back to Français.
Au revoir!

In Transit.

2010-03-15T20:28:00.004+08:00

You'll never know what's set ahead of you until you've reached it. You don't know if there is an open ocean awaiting you at the end of the tunnel, or an ancient railway station. Or a glorious meadow filled with those soft-petaled daisies. Perhaps there are warm sunny days to greet you instead of the dark gloomy days you were accustomed to.

So push your luck just once more. To see if this is your break.

Yep, that's what I intent to do.

If it is not what anticipated, patience rewards well.

When You Got a Good Thing

2010-03-02T17:03:00.004+08:00

Seems like everyone is under great Great GREAT stress these few weeks. I'm starting to feel inferior, especially the moment I turn on the laptop - go online - and see all the statuses going on about exams, assignments and revisions and exams and assignments again. Revisions are mostly forgotten until the last minute.*sighs*

The coming midterm break is not so much of a holiday break after all. It's gonna be a nerve recking roller coaster ride after the midterm break ends. I'll be greeted by 3 midterm papers in the first week as a post-break reward. And another paper the week after. And not to forget the hectic progress for completion of 5 assignments simultaneously with the tests.

To apply some accounting concepts in daily life:

Seriously, when dealing with assignments, WIP (work-in-progress) is the real deal to get your finished goods. It's too risky to be JIT (Just-in-Time).

Until the time when I thought I finally gave assignments and tests a rest, finals come slapping in my face on week 14! Danggg.

I've got to prepare depression medicine soon; and a whole load of crying. Pfft. Haha. Hope not.

Hence, I shall enjoy my rather carefree week first before I take on all the stress. My Good Thing. for now.

I Still Like My Wang Lee Hom Best

2010-02-24T23:39:00.003+08:00

ohmaiiiigawd. I'm so tired!
Time to take a break from French.

I've been told in class like a million times that there's a quiz next week and I made myself prepare like a million times. Nayyy, just exaggerating but the millions. But the date keeps on getting postponed; finally, the French quiz is tomorrow. I hope all that nutritious juicy French stuff in my brain comes in handy. *crosses fingers*

Anyway, I went for TWO movies with June and Chee Thean on Tuesday. Bought something special. ;) And bought THE Audit book in Borders, and cleared off THREE more from MPH SACC. Now there's only one book left in MPH Mahkota Parade, Malacca - yes, I really mean one left in the whole Malaysia. Teehee.

Back to the movies.

Don't waste your time watching '14 Blades', unless you want to admire Wu Chun's flawless face. sonicefeatures. You want to watch Donnie Yen, then watch 'Ip Man'.

You want something screening now, 'Little Big Soldier' it is!

Wang Lee Hom is there! Wang Lee Hom is there! Wang Lee Hom is there! yeah, i'm a big fan!

Srsly, this movie is more meaningful and funny at times too. Go watch. :)

Just a little something before I take the Chinese New Year leave.

I was browsing through the web yesterday during AIS class and I stumbled upon Paramore's photo gallery - HAYLEY WILLIAMS has an almost identical picture to mine!

Let me show you *moment of glory*

Haha. So imma rockstarrrr nao! :DDD

p/s: HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!!!

Personas

2010-02-09T14:02:00.007+08:00

I am absolutely loving the new feature from Mozilla Firefox: Personas!

This add-on enables users to dress up their web browsers and there are tons of designs up for selection. Maybe a lot of people are already aware about this (because I stumbled upon a design used by my friend's younger sister some time ago), but I just found out about this new add-on this afternoon! a 'lil slow, i knowwww.

Here's a sneak peek of some of the designs available:

The designs are categorised into abstract (like the designs above), causes, fashion, movies & tv, nature, music, holiday, sports and many more. So, you're definitely spoilt for choices. :D

I prefer something more subtle. Simple and not so heavily designed so here's my current persona:

Two little birds to usher in the new lunar year :)

To install, click http://www.getpersonas.com/en-US/. The page will guide you all the way through. It's very easy. Have fun!

Cookie Monster Parade

So I was hungry and ate a few cookies.

Imma cookie monstaaaaaa.

Cookie Monster cupcakes will be fine too.
Yummeh cuppacuppacakes.

Just Give It Time

2010-01-28T21:28:00.004+08:00

It's not easy being a student. It's definitely not easy being a student in MMU. Why am I not warned beforehand?!

I have faced so many different issues and this is the most frustrating one - this issue includes termination. Ask any student from my batch, they will be so pissed you'd think that someone failed the semester.

This was posted by the Faculty of Management on 27th of January 2010:

MUET Requirement : Student from June 2009/2010 Intake

Dear Students,

Please be informed that first year students which are from June 2009/2010 intake , you must get MUET Band 3 within first year of your programme, failing which your status will be terminated.

Fine, they want us to take the MUET exam. But posting this announcement ONE day before the MUET registration deadline?! fyi, deadline is 28th Jan.

Other issues regarding this MUET matter include:

the dept that posted the announcement kept pushing the responsibility to another dept. (FOM>ERU>FOM AGAIN>ADMIN>ERU) thank god, finally someone in admin helped.
there was NO coordination between the departments. nobody knows anything!
the staff in charge we're so rude that they scolded the students for wanting confirmation on the issue - particularly the exam unit (ERU).
the MUET form was sold out in December, and we students are expected to take the exam IMMEDIATELY or we'll be terminated.
the MUET exam in May clashes with our finals.
the announcement was made during my batch's last trimester (1st undergrad year) and they want us to take the exam within the 1st undergrad year or risk being terminated.

I have more to say but I am just too tired to even think about this matter.
I can have high blood pressure dealing with this, man!

But I'm so glad that certain actions have been done. A person-in-charge in the Admin Dept had reported to the Vice President's Office; and the Student Rep. Council had made an appeal.
I am hoping for good news! At least an extension or grace period. *prays hard*

kthxbai.

So What Now?

2010-01-19T01:32:00.002+08:00

The Malaysian Open will be held this Wednesday at the Bukit Jalil Stadium which is sooooo near to me now. I've never seen a badminton match LIVE before!!!

I'm torn between the decision to go and get that experience of watching live badminton or be a good girl and go for Chinese language class on Wednesday afternoon. *sighs* How I wish to see Fu Haifeng in action! Yeah, yeah - he's Chinese national and I'm so biased that I'm not eager to watch some other Malaysian players for the men's doubles match. It's basically due to the fact that I think Fu Haifeng is cute and plays pretty good badminton ;) But I'd hope Chong Wei would win the men's singles. see?stillratherpatriotic.

Just so you know, this is Fu Haifeng.
So cute, rightttt? He reminds me of Wang Leehom.
I wonder if he will be playing on Wednesday. Hmmm

Duck Noodles @ Bidor

2010-01-10T23:58:00.004+08:00

Lately, I've been craving for the scrumptious, delicious, yummy, tasty, awesome duck noodles available at
Pun Chun Restaurant in Bidor, Perak!

The fact is, I've been craving for it since like - last Thursday!
Gosh, I have an appetite like a pregnant woman! @_@

Anyway, back to the duck noodles. Once you've tasted this dish, you won't touch other duck noodles already. No joke! The dish comes with duck soup and a plate of noodles. Wanton noodles to be exact. I'm not a big fan of wanton noodles but but but the duck soup is the bomb! The meat is so tender. The soup is cooked with some herbs sorryidon'tknowwhatherbs and it's so gooood. It's like ooh la laaaa. :D

Duck soup. I want.

Hiccup

2010-01-05T21:51:00.001+08:00

I think I heard my pet dog hiccup this afternoon.
Can dogs hiccup? Yeah, they sure do.
And it's pretty funny to hear the hiccups.

p/s: going for mamak and stayover in Mich's tonight. tmr's the last hangout with alison before she takes off to London. :(

Goodnight and Goodbye

2009-12-31T00:32:00.004+08:00

Well, this post is a little bit more reflection-inclined. Reflecting on the events - ups and downs throughout this year. What makes the year memorable and what bittersweet momories that left you weeping or jumping for joy.

Today's officially the last day of the year. 31st December 2009.

Something that I had learnt in 2009 is: NO PAIN, NO GAIN.
I've been brought up to shoot for the moon, that nothing is impossible as long as you tried. Reach for the stars, as the only obstacle, most of the time is, YOU.

If there's an advice I could share, I want to tell all of you to follow your heart. I mean, if it's pink that you like (though you're a guy), go for it. If it's studying that you prefer, accept that teasing remark of a 'nerd' as something cool. Of course, if it's smoking that you like - forget it. I'm not encouraging.

My point is.. don't, and I mean DON'T let anyone brainwash you on the decisions that you are bound to make because that decision will change your life. I've experienced this before and I just wish I could turn back the time. However, time is precious. And I am embracing all that I have now and fit myself into that little bottle of contentment the size of a mineral bottle.
What I really meant was of course, choosing the road ahead - the tertiary education.

In my opinion, choose the road less travelled - if that's the path you're sure of - and I don't think you will regret. Ever. Whichever way round, it is the choice made by you, and you will eventually psych yourself into believing what's best for you and prove to the whole wide world that you can actually do it.

On the other hand, for the less fortunate, if the path is already set for you, like I said earlier, embrace it. And psych yourself into believing that that's the best thing ever and prove to the whole wide world that you can pull through that not-so-interesting-choice made for you.
Am I getting too lengthy? Haha.

In 2009, I had my fair share of ups and downs. Sure, I'm not as fortunate as some who had the opportunity to go overseas, do the things they want to do. I had been dreaming of it eversince. Nevermind. But, I dare say that I am fortunate to be given the opportunity to have the experience in tertiary education because there are thousands of people out there, who would give anything and everything to be in my place.

I am thankful for my family - always there for me.
I am thankful for my friends - always there for me.
I am thankful.

As a person, it wouldn't be right if we have not felt
pain
joy
sorrow
relief
disappointment
satisfaction.. and so on.
These feelings and others shape us and made us tougher to prepare for the days to come.

"You make me smile like a sun, Fall outta bed
Sing like a bird, Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record, Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like fool, Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile."
Smile, Uncle Kracker

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE.

Joy To The World!

2009-12-24T13:58:00.005+08:00

Yeahhhhhhooooo! Exam ended this mornin'! hahaha. i'msohappyyyy.

I'm so popular that a few days not checking my mails; the inbox amounted to this - 163 mails!

Click to enlarge
Lol. Nay, most of the mails are notices from FB.
So much for having ample of fans. Sigh.

Anywayyyy, time passed so fast that today's Christmas Eve already!
Have a merrrry christmas all!
XOXO.

T'is The Season To Be Nerdy

2009-12-17T14:32:00.002+08:00

Yah. The End of the Year.

Some say "Sit back and relax."
School holidays - yahoo! for the children.
Austalia's summer. crikey! for them.

MMU. study time. *puts on nerdy glasses while the crickets chirp*

Okay, I know I shouldn't spend so much time on the net now. But since I'm onlineeeee. No regrets. noregretsnoregrets. We have to chill also rightttt, no?

Just need to express express express.
Memendamkan perasaan stress tidak memanfaatkan diri dan akan mengakibatkan mental breakdown.

One presentation on Saturday morning. Saturdayyyy ahhhh! -_-
I want my beauty sleep and not to go back to dull Cyberjaya to present on a feasibility case. But oh well, all for the marks, ain't it? WISH ME LUCK! (for both presentation and finals okeh?) ILY!

kthxbai.

De De Decemberrr.

2009-12-10T14:21:00.006+08:00

It's December already!
The month of holidays and celebrations. For most people, except me, that is. Why?
Well, I've been ranting so much, probably you've already know. I've got a presentation due 19th December morning, and final exams start on the 21st December and ends on Christmas Eve morning. When everyone's off holiday-ing, I'm stuck studying. Waiiii oh waiii?

Christmas is cominggggg, like, in a few weeks!
Joy to the world! Because, thankfully, my finals finishes on the eve. I'd faint and never wake up if the exams were to resume after Christmas. =/

Anyway, when Christmas is bound to come, the wishlist is gonna be up like a billboard notice. (not that I'll get what I want, but it's worth announcing to the world what I want) Hohos.

This pair of pretty Roxy's, pleaseeee.
Any kind souls out there?

By the way, I got myself a pretty book too! 'The Gift' - Cecelia Ahern. it'ssoprettyyy
I don't really fancy her books - except P.S. I Love You. But the hardcover copy of 'The Gift' is oh-so-tempting! This is something to boost the Chistmas spirits and give me a little motivation to study for the upcoming finals.

It's prettier when you see the book for yourself. The last time I saw in MPH, the price was RM79.90. I bought it from a stall in Streetmall, Cyberjaya, for only Rm35. :)

What's Your Market Price?

2009-12-05T01:03:00.005+08:00

These few days, the only things that were playing around in my head are:

market price per share
outstanding shares
book value per share
market price again and
market price
and
market price.

They're driving me crazy. Really.

It's really, really frustrating not being able to find what you want. And what I really meant was the market price per share. Plus, I spent hours and days looking through the internet and the financial statements like a gazillion times but to no avail. I flipped through the pages for the umpteenth time and I thought "hey! I found something!", but it was nothing. *sighs*

Then my saviours came by! Today! I'm so thankful to have such helpful friends. Thank you! Thank you! (you know who you are) *beams*
It made my day. :)

p/s: this is really random, but, i want to get on a carousel!!!

Padapa padapapaaa

2009-11-25T14:09:00.008+08:00

Forget about all the things that made me frustrated today.
Moving on to a brighter note, as promised.

This weekend, I am returning to this placeand this :)

My unofficial break starts today until Sunday! *gasps* I knowwww, nice righttt.
Gonna have an amazing camwhore-shopping-spree with Sutha and Joanne tomorrow!
Gosh, the last time I saw Sutha was like, when I went back to school to take my SPM results. Speaking of results, I've not taken the actual result slip yet. :P
And it has been a long time since I saw Joanne though we are in the same district and sometimes, same area! *ahemcherasahem*

As for the others,
Alison's coming back on the 20th next month! but I'll be having my finals then. bummer.
Michelle's next 2 months. waiii so late?
Sue Ying. Hmmm, my cousin but I rarely see her. What happened to the weekly family gatherings?

Everyone's everywhere. But we're not that far, really.

Because now we have Skype!

Blinded.

2009-11-20T00:32:00.004+08:00

When disappointment settles in, you've just got to get over it.
And never repeat the same mistake.

p/s: please remind me to look at the last question of all my exam papers.

It's Always About Time

2009-11-17T21:29:00.003+08:00

Give me 48 hours a day and I might still think that it is not enough. Nothing is ever enough, isn't it?

Yeah, I am always complaining about time and how fast it flies - most of the time without us noticing that lightyear speed. Even if I noticed it, I'd be either too ignorant about it or feel guilty for like 3/4 of the day. Dang.

So much to do, so little time.
I have a gazillion things to do but my body would not budge. Gerams.
Okay, after listing it out, it might not be a GAZILLION things. But after expanding what needed to be done amongst those points, it IS a gazillion. Well, at least to me. *pouts*

Check out MFA website about franchising policies and everything I need to know.
Prepare resume and cover letter for job interview (assignment)
Discuss and complete financial analysis of HUMEIND. (the company name had me baffled)
Score midterm tests: Finance and Quantitative Analysis.
Discussion, discussion and presentations
Final exam during the Christmas week. Bummer. I do, do hope that my papers are all before Christmas.

Right now, I think I need therapy. Heal me.
I need a conference call with BFFLs.
Emails would be healing even if you're my next door neighbour. ;)
I need comfort from Mummy. :D
I need a break to hangout with the 3 Malacca people.
I need yummeh food. oh gosh, here comes the pounds!

By the way, does my complaining get onto your nerves? I'm sorry. As much as I don't want to sound emo, I promise to come back in a lighter note with all the fairytales that happen in reality, soon. Real soon, I hope.

Butterflies Fly Away

2009-11-04T21:33:00.004+08:00

There are good butterflies and bad butterflies.

Good butterflies are those pretty little ones fluttering about in the meadows, when the sun beams and warms up the surroundings. The butterflies are those with the exotic, colourful and gorgeous wings. But I like white better. ;)

Bad butterflies couldn't care less about colours. Well, only because you can't see these butterflies. They are the ones causing the stomach churns upon receiving a topic to spontaneously talk about for almost 5 minutes. Yeah, impromptu speech starts next week. First managerial communication assignment! Gosh. Many are worried of getting mental breakdowns or blocks prior to speech. I'm not excluded, nuh uh.

Keeping the fingers crossed.

p/s: I'm getting really restless. :/

Miffed

2009-11-02T21:35:00.003+08:00

Miffed means upset.
Well, initially I thought it meant irritated or annoyed. But I think it all sums up to the same thing.
I like that word. Sounds pretty cute. :)

By the way, I've got an Englishman for Managerial Communications!
I'm a little bit pumped up to have an ang moh teaching me for the first time. :D Listening to that British accent feels different from all the usual accents that I've heard thoughout the years of learning. Haha. I feel so ulu now.

But he's a funny man. Often chuckling to himself, probably absorbed in his own humour. He loves to go 'Aha!', like 'Eureka!'. Know what I mean?
He's about say, 70 plus of age? So that reminds me of my grandmother being a lecturer. *giggles* Oh yeah, he taught the class what 'miffed' meant. :)

Hmmm, suddenly I miss home.
Funny thing that though you are surrounded by many people, you'd still feel homesick.
It's funnier that the nearer you are to home, the more you miss the comforts it offers. :(

This. I Want.

Quick Quick Quick!

2009-10-26T23:31:00.002+08:00

Yesh! The 8tv Quickie interview was held here, in MMU Cyberjaya, today! Awesomeee. But I didn't have time to go poke my nose in to see what's happening and all because I reached campus at 1pm plus and the interview ended at 2pm. It was very tempting to take part in the interview. Well, to see how I would fare in hosting shows, yada yada. :D

Owh yes. Today also marks the start of a brand new semester!
Urghhh. The timetable is pretty lousy and most classes are already full! Crap, no? It is so difficult even to just sign up for a sport subject. They were all full! Kiasu ahhh. I was told that only in desperate measures, they'll open up extra classes for Taekwondo, Deejay Program, National Dance and Chess. Chess?! Err, maybe next time. Heh.

I had a fairly healthy first day though. I went to the gym and played basketball! ;)
The trip to the gym wasn't really productive anyway because there were 2 people hogging the treadmill and the other machine was spoilt. Such lousy maintenance! The 'bicycles' weren't even functioning. Gah. I prefer Malacca's gym which has music on, more facilities and an instructor there!
I had a great sweat though during basketball. *thumbs up*
Tomorrow's scheduled for volleyball practice. Gotta shape up for cousin's wedding next year, yo!

Alright then. Back to printing lecture notes, tutorials and exercises. *sigh* Quantitative Analysis lecturer's pretty strict on notes and exercises. And PUNCTUALITY. No more "Oops, sorry I'm late due to traffic jam". :(

Tata!

Start With Kitties, End With Kitties.

2009-10-24T15:33:00.017+08:00

Dum dee dum dee dum.
So the holidays are coming to an end. Oh, how I dread to go back to Cyberjaya and leave the comforts of my own home. *sighs*
Nevertheless, the holidays were fairly well spent, with the usual visit back to Malacca. (Malacca again, ah?) Yeah lorrrrh. But but but there were dashes of first-times to add some spice to the holidays. For example, it was the first time we went to the Malacca Night Safari despite the months we spent there last year. Then, there was the first time at Geographer's where we got a tad bit perasan towards the end. (Lazy to explain now) Lol. And, not to forget the first time to Pulau Ketam where the restaurant overcharged us. How could she?! *with a speck of drama* First time renting bikes to ride. But I had to walk, eventually. First time bowling. Ahh.

As I'm pretty lazy to type stuff, I'll let the pictures to do the talking. :)

#1
This is probably the cutest kitty I've ever seen!

See? It looks as if it's smiling.

This shot makes me think of Puss In Boots from Shrek.

The night safari - it would be better to visit during the day though. Well, because most of the animals are sleeping at night and weren't very active.
Except this Slow Loris.

This owl lost one of its eyes but my phone cam wasn't good enough to capture it.

#3
Pulau Ketam. Don't have to think about staying a night, unless you want to fish at night. :)
From this picture,

does it look like...
...
..
.
this?A little, eh? By the way, the second picture was taken in Langkawi.
Of course, the water's much clearer there.

If you've not been to Pulau Ketam, this is how the road there looks like. Where are the tar roads and traffic lights? No worries about traffic jam and all that, as there aren't any cars. The only mode of transportation is bicycle. Oh yes, of course, your own legs. Good way to shed some kilos.

A: Gasp! We've got to walk?!

B: I don't want tooo!
C: I'd rather sleep.

Haha. Lame - yeah I know. Just ignore. I'm still hunting for the blog entry posting mojo.

#4
Bowling. Tada!
Yeah, the lowest score belongs to me. I think I have zero talent in bowling lahhhh. Nevermind, this calls for more blowling training sessions! Who's up for it? :D
The ballssss. They've all got different weights, you know?

So, that's about all. Before I end, I just wanna share this wall painting with all of you. I absolutely love love love it! This might just be something for me to paint on my wall. Inspiration, come come come!

Oh, I just realised that the first picture I posted was a kitteh and I so happen ended the post with a wall kitteh! Hence, the post title. Haha. Toodles, all! ;)

Fabulosity!

2009-10-10T02:41:00.001+08:00

Exams are all over! At least for now. :D
Such fabulosity ;)

Sorry for such a short post. But I just had to express the relief! :DDDD

Hold On

2009-10-06T00:35:00.004+08:00

There are times when you feel so sick of life and you want to put a stop to the rolling ball, the times when you thought - this is it, I am done for now. You feel like giving up.

I've felt the restlessness of studying and awaiting the exam day to come and go.
I've felt the urge to stop reading and let luck decide my results.
I've felt the tiredness and and the heaviness of my eyelids each time my brain was not active enough to digest the contents of the book.
I feel an overdose of homesickness.
Yeah, it ain't much fun.

But then again, I thought to myself.
Hey, this is just the beginning. Giving up easily brings hopes of your parents and yourself come
crashing down. Just like that. Can't risk that after all the hard work you've done to reach where you are now. After all those support family and friends had given.

You'll never walk alone, no matter how dark the path ahead is, when you have those who cared for you, around you. Great companies drive great motivation. Though they aren't physically present. Knowing that someone cares gives you faith to keep pushing through. And carry on.

That's why I've decided to continue.

Make a call to your loved ones to have a chat at stressed times. Don't tell them you're okay if you really are not. Just tell them you. are. not. okay. It helps. :)

Life is a Roller Coaster, You Just Gotta Ride It

2009-10-03T19:31:00.007+08:00

Fly.
It's amazing how time flies.

Fly.

Everyone's flying out of Malaysia - including Alison, who has left. IMY!

Waiii? Waaiiii did you have to gooo?

Fly.
Let's ace the exams with flying colours, yo.

Gotta get get.

Fly.
500 Days of Summer is out!
Fast forward the time and let's go catch a movie!

p/s: An overdosage of studies can really drive one mad. At times.

A Breath of Fresh Air

2009-09-23T00:49:00.002+08:00

Finally. Finally. Finally.
I've succeeded in catching a movie after 1 783 236 days of not watching movie. In the cinema, that is. We went for The Ugly Truth! Alison, Sue Ying and me. Alison, I love your cam's colour! Eh, what are you gonna name it since Joanne's is Lixie already. ;)

And yes, the truth is ugly. Er, scratch that. I'm rephrasing it to the reality is ugly.
You know how much I dread memorising thick syllabuses to score for exams? Is the plural for syllabus, syllabuses? Oh, well. haha. And sit in the room with a stoning posture with the books, notes and the highlighters by my side while the TV outside makes some commotion and calls out to you to go peek, look longer and stick your eyeballs to the screen. Speaking about TV shows, TVB dramas are so addictive and the VMAs '09 shown on MTV was kinda irritating. It was like as if certain parts were being cut from the awards when the show comes back on after the commercial. Well it happens during the show also or is it just me?

Anyway, I am looking at things very optimistically eversince the emo-germ attack. Instead of not liking what I am doing or reading in particular, I am embracing it and taking this as a new skill learnt and new knowledge obtained. *embraces the books* Who knew where managerial science is gonna get me to? I might end up with a brand of my own one day, and you, yes you can be my franchisee! *gasps* Can't wait for that moment of glory but it is still going to be a looooonnnggg way to go.

Nerd is the new sexy, yo.

Hmmm, by the way, I will be MIA -missing in action- for some time until say, 8th October, because I will be sitting for my finals in one week! How time flies. Its like zoom zoom zooommmm. I felt like I've just finished SPM last week and now I am sitting for another exam in degree already. I might drop in to post a 'lil short note occasionally though. :D

Till I come back, XOXO.

p/s: I don't like. Don't like. The timetable slots for next semester's subjects. I want an empty Monday or Friday. :(

Say Hello To Goodbye

2009-09-17T21:22:00.003+08:00

It's so good to have the Internet connection back. And browsing through the world wide web. *wide smile* But, I have to say, Streamyx is pretty sucky today. The connection is so unstable that it bugs me. In fact, I would need ample of luck for this post to be successfully uploaded.

It's so good to catch up on Facebook. Yes, Michelle, I've been MIA for a while. Blame it on Econs assignment and my laptop that suddenly turned it's back on me since last Friday. I couldn't come online, don't know why. But I miss you and gonna miss a whole load of other people too. Tell me lah about your new found teman. HAHAHAHA.

Hmmm, speaking of FB, I'm gonna try out Twitter pretty soon, since it's the IN thing this season. The first step to stardom perhaps?
By the way, I found this on Twitter:

ADRIANLP5 RT @aplusk:
BREAKING NEWS...
Kanye West just interrupted Patrick Swayzes funeral
2 let every1 know Michael Jacksons death was better.

*Laughs* Of course, I don't think it is true. But remember what Kanye did to Taylor Swift during the VMAs? Homggg. That guy just made a fool of himself. Super thick-skinned. hahaha.

It's so good to have an outing with BFFLs, and at the same time celebrated Sue Ying's birthday! Don't have the photos with me, but they're available at Joanne's.
Sue Ying! You're finally 18 and you can do STUFF already. lol :D

Why say 'Hello' to 'Goodbye'?
I think it's the emo-germ. (vocab stolen from brother - heyyy, I am starting to like this 'emo-germ' word) *snickers*

In layman term, it's basically saying goodbye. Especially to those who are leaving for overseas.
Sue Jinnnnn just left for UK this morning.
There's a farewell for ChinYinYiing this Saturday.
21st will be Krystle's turn.
And 28th will be Alison's departure!
I'm so gonna miss youuu. Jahat - at least squeeze/pack/stuff me in your luggage. Or I can act like a dummy and you just claim that I am your stuffed toy, ok? Dump Foxy. hahaha.

Anyway, I am so happy for 'em all to be able to seize this opportunity. Best of luck and don't forget the patriotic ones here. ok. humour failed. I'll give you guys a nice whack if you're back with the accent. lol.

Owh, off to watch TVB drama. Baibai. ;)

Kill The Lights

2009-09-10T11:59:00.004+08:00

Sometimes, the disadvantage of sharing is not sharing. Why wouldn't the starter at the fluorescent light work? Dang. I want my beauty sleep. wuwuwu.

Am starting to hate this.
Plus, mine is a double tube! How am I supposed to get some shut-eye!?
Even if you don't stare really hard at it, you'd go blind.

Sneaky Lil' Techie Thing

I hate it that my pink Swatch mouse's scroll is spoilt! Now I can't scroll up and down the page via my mouse. *puckers* And there's something ticking me off - I think it's the laptop. I am sooo blaming it on MMU's computers that breeds various viruses. This is computer Hini. Gahh, music from blogs bugs me. K. Maybe not all, but a start-pause button there will be tons of help. No offence aites.

Oh, I just realised that today's 09/09/09.
I'm bored. :( Mana BFFLsku? Esp. tu yang dah nak terbang ke luar negara. Ko tak nak teman i sebelum freezing yourself kat sana ke? wuwuwu.

It's no fun eating alone.

But it is better than eating with someone when there's a possibility of awkward silences to fill that what supposed to be small talk over lunch.
It is also better than eating alone when everyone at your left-right-back-front-diagonal are staring at you, keeping the brain gears go "jiorrr, that girl so kesian la. so friend-less."

I want to dine with Wang Lee Hom ;)

I need a movie marathon.

The Time Traveler's Wife

Clare has been in love with Henry her entire life. She believes they are destined to be together, even though she never knows when they will be separated: Henry is a time traveler--cursed with a rare genetic anomaly that causes him to live his life on a shifting timeline, skipping back and forth through his lifespan with no control. Despite the fact that Henry's travels force them apart with no warning, Clare desperately tries to build a life with her one true love.

Go watch the trailer! It looks good :D
And the music used was Lifehouse's 'Broken'. I love that song! Oh-so-mesmerising! *thumbs up!*

"The broken clock is a comfort, it helps me sleep tonight
Maybe it can stop tomorrow from stealing all my time
I am here still waiting though i still have my doubts
I am damaged at best, like you've already figured out"
Broken, Lifehouse

I'm Comingggg.

I was reading "The Five People You Meet In Heaven" by Mitch Albom that day, and I came across some dialogues spoken by the characters of the story which was really meaningful and awe-inspiring. Anyhow, Mitch was really the mastermind behind.

If you feel like you are living a life full of regrets,
or you're miserable 360 out of 365 days,
or you think you are the only lonely human on Earth,
pick up this book and give it a read. I think it gives comfort. :)

As per say the Captain,

"You get to make sense of your yesterdays."

Sometimes, you sit down to think about what you had done or what you might have done the days before yesterday, it makes you snap out and regain consciousness and the what ifs you have already been striked out.

"Sacrifice is not something to regret.
It's something to aspire to."

Don't feel all bad that the opportunity you had once, was lost now. Take it as a consolation that what you had lost or given away had helped someone unfortunate in some way.
For example, a lost life of a soldier in a battlefield might have just spared his friend's life.

"Sacrificing something precious, you're not really losing it.
You're just passing it on to someone else."

"If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?"
If Today Was Your Last Day,

Sundaes and Shades

2009-08-08T22:55:00.005+08:00

Sundays on the road:

Westerners: Enjoy weekend relaxing peacefully.
Asians: Enjoy weekend in crowded places, like going to the mall.

So predictably, I am truly Asian - well, at least judging by the way I like my Sundays.
&&& I saw this pair of shades in 'Nose' which costs only RM29 but I was contemplating to buy or not and all and I ended up not buying it! *sighs*

Then then, I got back home and immediately mopped the floor. Random, yeah. But my mom asked me to help her mop the floor. Hahas.
I finished mopping and checked my phone and I got this message from Adeline saying her aunt bought her a pair of Guess shades!! zomgggg. I so wanna be her aunt's goddaughter!

*sinks back into seat*
Ahhh, so this pretty much summed up my day today. Shopping was rather unproductive. Music leeching was successful. Money splurged on tummy satisfactions.
Had a pretty awesome stayover in Alison's minus the presence of Joanne, Sue Ying and Michelle. Wish they were there too.
Photos MIGHT be up in fb. :D

p/s: Now you know what to get me for Christmas or my birthday or New Year or any festivities. Didn't get the hint? Nevermind, I'll voice it out loud - a pair of shades! No worries, cheap pirated ones ought to satisfy me already. Teehee. The 'Nose' one in particular. Ask Alison to guide you through the shades-hunting-shopping-spree. ;)

Someone jab me with a tranquiliser gun so that I can hibernate at home and stay grounded.

From ~~now on,~~ day after tomorrow onwards (hmmm, the sentence structure sounds wrong), I can only lounge around in the comfort of my own home, go to uni and go to Grandma's house. I shall be a good nerd and face the textbooks and slides 24/7.

I pledge to be a stay-at-home daughter. :p

Why do the lucky ones get luckier
but the unlucky ones get unluckier?

The world is unfair.
Sometimes you think that you deserve something more than others do. You've tried your best but dejavu happens, and you found yourself back to square one. A series of unfortunate events probably happens at the scale of 9/10; you realise you're companion for the day is pure disappointment. Pfft.

"Maybe I'm not that material" you thought. But are the others really THAT material?

Oh well, maybe there's something more out there.
Might not be now, but perhaps later.
Life is not a piece of cake. :(

"I can almost see it.
That dream I'm dreaming, but
There's a voice inside my head saying
You'll never reach it
Every step I'm takin'
Every move I make
Feels lost with no direction,
My faith is shaking"

So many assignments, so little time. =/

Its only like, the 3rd week of the trimester and there's a presentation due tomorrow. To add on to the surprise, another one's due next Wednesday! Bummer.

Plans had to be canceled. *sighs*
There goes the Malacca return trip.
There goes the Transformers 2 movie.
There goes the dating plans.
There goes the offer.
PS: some cancellations are not related to assignments however.

I am still waiting for another offer. *crosses fingers*

Yahhh. Gathering with fellow Convents F5 (2007) this coming Saturday! But not sure yet if I can go.
Woohoooo. Sue Ying coming back from NS on Saturday/Sunday!
Meeting baby Wallace on Friday! I still think he should be Christopher ;)

One Word - Etiquette

2009-06-17T21:34:00.002+08:00

People just don't know how to clean up their mess after using the toilet.
"Malacca hostel also like that, Cyber hostel also like that."
Such a pain!

If cats can cover their own poop, why can't humans keep clean too?
Is it so hard to flush??

Omg, it's degree!

2009-06-16T13:05:00.003+08:00

I've officially started degree! I feel oh-so-old. Yeah, you people doing Masters must be older rite? kakaka.

I am only 4 years (48 months) away to this:

Come to think of it, it is rather long. :P

Everything's so far so good. Only feeling a teeny weeny bit lonely at times. Only if I could tease Adeline with _ _ _ face-to-face. That would be so fun!

Only 2 Weeks of Leisure

2009-06-08T15:17:00.003+08:00

Yahh. It had been so long since I blogged, I even lost the typing-on-the-laptop mojo. My fingers kept getting tangled. Hah.

Anyway, there wasn't anything interesting, except for the trip to Genting last week! Hmmm, this reminds me of Kenting in Taiwan. Wonderful place - not that I've been there - it was on Astro Travel & Living. :D

I'm feeling a teeny-weeny bit lazy to post up pictures here today, so kunjungilah Facebookku untuk tengok gambar-gambar tersebut. ;)

As it was the school holidays too, Genting was super packed with people.

Species #1
Lalas and ahbengs were over-excessively crowding the whole place. I would be blinded if I had stayed a little bit longer. We need the fashion cops due to the fashion disaster!
Like seriously, yellow shoes? The sun would be put to shame 'cos those shoes had disgraced the colour yellow. This is one of the reasons why I don't like yellow. Brr.
And, big strawberry scrunchies on the head? Omg. Why not adding a 'lil spray of whipped cream to sweeten things up, eh?

Species #2
Uncivilised people - I'm not mentioning races here - were bustling around, not quite queuing for the rides. Even if your son/grandson/greatgrandson is at the front of the queue, it doesn't mean you are given the authority to bust right through the people waiting in line. Shame on you, adults and young people alike. My younger brother can give you etiquette classes for free.

Other than that, everything's cool. By cool, I meant real COOL too. There was thick mist during our stay and I needed 2 long sleeves to keep warm at times. It was a drastic contrast to the weather in Malacca. I was practically living in a sauna in a desert during my foundation days there. So glad to be home right now but I'll have to take off again by the end of this week - to Cyber. *sighs* 24 hours a day is never enough.

Anyway, the connection today is pretty sucky so my Facebook account couldn't be accessed, I'd have to just post up some pictures here. Lucky you :P

The view from the lookout point

The day before - Carls Jr.

Jiunee!

Group hug!

The boat ride that made you workout

Roller coaster ride

Gosh, I miss this ride, but its only for kids!

You can take the gondola even if you're not in Venice.

Sorry that the picture quality wasn't exactly the canggih type :D

Okayyy, so the title was rather lame. But I'm back and done with exams! woohoo!
I almost turned into a nerd. @ @

Anyway, you can now book me for activities/dates within these 2 weeks, starting Sunday (31st May). ;)
However, bare in mind, I will be unavailable on certain dates during the weekdays. AND I've only got 2 weeks of holidays before degree starts! Bummer, isn't it?

Anyway, gonna go hangkai soon!

Chaoz. :D

I was listening to the radio while blogging (Fly.fm to be exact) and this song went on air. This is funny:
Why did you go to school?
What did you learn in school?
...
In schoooooool, to know nothingggg. (3x)
...
Take a look, take a look, take a look.
...
Never miss a thing, never miss a thing. (3x)
I wonder who sang it?

Why is the weather so hot?

2009-05-22T18:02:00.001+08:00

Another 4 to go. omg, i can go crazy.

Hey friends!
Well, as some of you know, I will be having my finals for 2 weeks, starting from tomorrow. Yeap, after this, I'll be movin' on to degree. Therefore, this blog will be temporarily unscribbled (unless I can't stand studying anymore) for about 2 weeks. Yah.

Come back on, say 28th May?
Till then, tata. :D

First of all, special thanks to those who had took the trouble to send me such thoughtful messages to wish me well on my birthday. Except that one actually "wished" David Beckham happy birthday on my facebook wall. =.=''

So, big hugs and kisses to:
(in order of the early birds. haha)

via word of mouth: Danny, Mom, Dad, Nick, Alison Lee, Yi Chien, Lee Hom (indirectly). lol, Cindylyn, Esther Kuan. ;)

By the way, WANG LEE HOM's concert is seriously THE concert to go to. No regrets! I'm so glad I could make it this year. And so glad that he came on 2nd May. And so glad Alls was there to share the experience with me! *beams* Plus Fiona and Yi Chien too.

&&& He actually sang a birthday song! No joke! *screams*
Well, it was one of his band member's birthday too, but, asalkan aku bahagialah. I took it that he sang the song for me. Sharing is caring. Hahaha. It was oh-so-mesmerising. And the best part was that he wished "Happy Birthday".

He started off the concert in a very rockish note and it was really good. *thumbs up* He got to show off his skills on his brand new guitar. Oh, he actually wore a cape during the opening. Hahah. And the animations (background) and the lightings were really good too.

He moved on to the drums and then the violin and then the piano. It was great! Really. I can never ever get enough of him. And his concert was definitely worth going!

&&& there was one part that he disappeared in a box and appeared at the seating of those with RM200++ tickets! He walked through to the stage and shook hands with the fans. *hyperventilation* Dang. I should have bought the Rm200++ tickets!

:D

Yeap. I am craving for muffins. Aiyah. So much for working out and putting on the pounds again by eating muffins. Wait. I've yet to eat any muffins. ;)

Mathematically counting the calories,
it is said that 1 muffin = 3 bars or Mars chocolate. zomgggg. killer.

Anyhow, that irritating girl is so damn bodoh lah, I tell you. Beh tahan.
*Note to her: "If you are not interested, just shut your mouth and say 'No, thank you' politely, AND with a smile please."
Whoa, but, no. She didn't. She had to keep her stupid itchy mouth moving instead, with sentences like "yerr, what is this?!? why like this wan?!? yerrr" (translate to mandarin please)
Come on lah, you're no better than us and I couldn't care less if this post reaches your eyes/ears.
I'd give you my BFF's favourite quotes if you don't shut up the next time I see you.

I'm so proud that I bomb-ed her with "Oh, you've not eaten dragonfruit before???". Sarcasm rocks, man!

Grossology

2009-04-02T18:03:00.004+08:00

Sometimes toilet seats are disgusting. It is so gross to the extent that I start to wonder, is it possible to contract HIV/AIDS by sharing the same toilet seat with the same gross person?

I once confided in a friend about the condition of the hostel toilet seat. But, well, the one who should take action is the person who is the civilized-toilet-user. It shocked me that some girls are incapable of managing toilet hygiene. For goodness sake, we are girls! Hygiene is like, priority.

Anyway, GOOD SANITARY PRACTICE IS IMPORTANT!
I was google-ing about toilet hygiene and I stumbled upon an interesting page.

Meet The Super Hygiene Team: Super Toilet, Driplette and Soapy Hero!

On World Toilet Day (November 19, 2008), WaterAid America unveiled a new online resource for children, The Adventures of Super Toilet , at a launch event at River Oaks Elementary School in Houston, Texas.
The Adventures of Super Toilet is an Online Animated Book that Helps Children to Understand the Importance of Toilets, Safe Water and Good Hygiene.

So, if children can do it, why not YOU?

Back to the main issue, Can You Get AIDS from A Dirty Toilet Seat?
Myth #1: AIDS can be contracted from a dirty toilet seat in a public restroom.
Fact: You cannot get HIV virus, or other STDs (sexually transmitted diseases), from a toilet seat. So, there is no need to rush home every two hours if you plan to go on a shopping spree!
I really thank God for this fact! Phew.

However, there are four fluids that can carry and transmit HIV: blood, semen, vaginal fluids and breast milk. This I know. HIV can be transmitted only through contact with these body fluids of an infected person. So, you won't contract HIV from clothes, phones, or toilet seats! Also, things like spoons, cups or other objects used by an infected person do not spread the virus. You should be pretty safe as long as you refrain from having sexual intercourse and sharing of needles or syringes with an infected person.

Gladiators ahoy!

2009-04-01T00:40:00.007+08:00

More is never enough.
I want sandals. I want gladiator sandals. *drools*
The strappy-er, the better. :D

These aren't gladiators but they are oh-so-pretty!!!

Oopsie. Class with "BFF" at 8am later. Ciao.

Now you know what to get me for my birthday *hints*
My birthday falls on 2nd May by the way. Lalala~

2009-03-25T18:38:00.003+08:00

Glad to be able to strikeout some chores from my to-do list. Phew.

However, I am so not pleased with certain things! Esp. Soyabean Man! In fact, I think I am going to change the euphemism "soyabean man" to "wantan mee" because I dislike wantan mee. Bleks.

"Wantan Mee" is damn mengada laa I tell you. Bising betul! @.@
You want changes? I give you changes.
You want modern? I give you modern.
What else do you want?!?
In fact, dots are very in fashion nowadays, mind you. Update your ownself lah.

Dear readers.
Tell me, during a presentation, what do you look for?
a) The colours and fonts of the slides OR
b) The way the presenter perfects his/her presentation and flows his/her idea to the audience?

It is no doubt that slides are important. But does it mean that you are not allowed any glances and references to your own slides? Does it mean that your background have to have a certain theme and every theme changes as your slides change? Stupid nonsenselah I tell you.
This wantan mee judges people by looking only at the slides and(from my perception) barely at the presenter. Because. Everytime a presentation ends, wantan mee goes in front and comments about the font, colours and themes of the slides.

FOR HEAVENS SAKE! What are you judging man?!

Why can't a presenter keep his/her slides simple and at the same time being able to pass on the idea? It is much much much easier to show the audience the content of your presentation. Pfft.
"Your slides aren't any better anyway. Why can't you just accept what people tell you??? Open-minded sikitlah."

Whatever man.
I am not wasting time and energy on wantan mee anymore.
You want colours? Ok. I give you colours. ~~Just shut up!~~
I'll just shut up.

On another hand, have you ever thought of things that are so tempting, yet unreachable? (this is no more about wantan me)
So I quote an uncle of a friend

"If it is yours, then it is yours;
If it is not, then it is not yours."

Unquote.
Optimistic, eh?
I shall plant this in my mind and just wait. Good things will eventually come by.

Thus, patience will help you reach that blissful state of eden. Be it the results of scholarship applications or desires and cravings.
