Hey guys, i'm back!!! updates on February.

In the month of February 2007, many delightful and meaningful events have occured. There was Tammy and Wengkin's birthday and farewell celebration, Valentine's day, and Chinese New Year.. and last but not least, the departure of dearest Me to Melbourne, Australia once again..





everyone who visits this blog regularly, thank you, and i apologise for the very much delayed update. I have just gotten my new internet connection as i have moved to a new house in the suburbs, 20 minutes tram ride from the city(where my uni is). i feel much more comfortable in this house. spacious. the only setback being that it is much further than where i used to stay.



anyways, i'll just talk abt what happened over the month of february in Malaysia as they were great events and i would love to show the pics. (don't wanna waste them by just storing them in my laptop, right?)




The first event was the joint party of Tammy and Wengkin's birthday party and also Wengkin's farewell to Melbourne. It was held at RedBox in the Curve. Everyone had fun there. There were drinks, buffet dinner, karaoke sessions and just plenty of mucking around. hehe, here are some photos.


They look happy don't they?



This party was also a great opportunity for me to catch up with bestarians. A lot of them were there. just like old times. :) me and the guys below.







tammy tammy.. fun girl she is..


highlights of the day?



1. pooikwan, mienyee and saukuan can kick ass in singing!



2. Choonfei hogged the microphone most of the time. (which is alright cause he can melt hearts with his voice.. goddamn it!!)





3. feisty 7, (meiwen and loris couldn't come under unfortunate circumstanceS) were mucking around, singing togehter, camwhoring, playing about. it was fuN! i miss meiwen and loris though.. miss u, miss u, miss u..



4. couldn't remember what else. it's been so long! sure wish i actually uploaded these last time.



5. Oh, that's right! Melvin kissed Wengkin.



6. and i kissed michelle. on the lips! and then out of spontanialty (don't know how to spell) we frenched. crazy right?? here's a photo which i think looked really mystical or sth. i like it.





7. and i love melvin. RANDOM, but i don't care! hehe.





Well, that's the thing. then there was my brother's birthday as well. Forgive me if my blog entry's too graphic. i just love photos! Erge and his 21st birthday celebration in our own home. his friends came along and tammy and my melvin were my guests.

we had a great feast. prepared by my mother, some spinach rice, some pastas.. delicious.. choon fei, choon leong, chee hong.. many others came. same old same old. just like in melbourne. we were kinda lost cause they speak cantonese soooo fast larrr!! so we just went about our own business in another room. hehe...

as u can see, crazy stuff caught on camera. i love cameras.. hehe..



kungfu hustle!!

we sang too.. going crazy. i feel like a rockstar. love her camera. after some time, my brother came in to join us after his friends went home. (don't get surprise, they would go back very late, just that in our home, there's the golden rule : NO DRINKING NO MATTER HOW OLD U ARE. unless you get married. ) so we don't. in the house. ;)

the emo-nesss.. haha..

anyways, i think i'll update more another time. u've had enough to absorb, haven't u?? hehe..

i'll just talk abit about now. damn geram abt sth and would like to share with u guys. these days, i've been damn busy with work and assignments. 5 days in a row, i was just working, eating, working, eating, working, eating, working, sleeping. thankgod for my metabolism, i can rest a bit while eating. and yesterday, we were supposed to hand in our history presentation and model. we were making a traditional Indonesian house belonging to the Batak Toba tribe. 2 whole days spent just on that model with me and my groupmates. hard work and great effort. what do you know, our tutor told us that we actually made the model of the wrong house. we made a model of the rice shack (a place to store rice, a smaller version of the real house). .............. i went............ ARH!H!!!! and it was so embarrasing! and pissing off! i gotta be more careful the next time. i seriously wonder what marks i'll be getting from that exercise. wuwu.. it was a really nice model though.. argh! i'll show it when i get my hands on the pictures.

until next time! Ciao!!! (dont worry, there's more to come!! muahahaa..)

- i'll be talking abt valentines day and CNY next time.

We Need Sisters.

i received this email and i think it is really meaningful. i don't know who the real author was so i didn't put any name down here.


To all;
A young wife sat on a sofa on a hot humid day, drinking iced tea and visiting with her Mother. As they talked about life, about marriage, about the responsibilities of life and the obligations of adulthood, the mother clinked the ice cubes in her glass thoughtfully and turned a clear, sober glance upon her daughter.



"Don't forget your Sisters," she advised,

swirling the tea leaves to the bottom of her glass. "They'll be more important as you get older. No matter how much you love your husband, no matter how much you love the children you may have, you are still going to need Sisters. Remember to go places with them now and then; do things with them. "Remember that 'Sisters' means ALL the women... your girlfriends, your daughters, and all your other women relatives too. You'll need other women. Women always do."
'What a funny piece of advice!' the young woman thought. Haven't I just gotten married? Haven't I just joined the couple-world? I'm now a married woman, for goodness sake! A grownup! Surely my husband and the family we may start will be all I need to make my life worthwhile!' But she listened to her Mother. She kept contact with her Sisters and made more women friends each year. As the years tumbled by, one after another, she gradually came to understand that her Mom really knew what she was talking about. As time and nature work their changes and their mysteries upon a woman, Sisters are the mainstays of her life. After more than 50 years of living in this world, here is what I've learned:
This says it all :
Time passes.
Life happens.
Distance separates.
Children grow up.
Jobs come and go.
Love waxes and wanes.
Men don't do what they 're supposed to do.
Hearts break.
Parents die.
Colleagues forget favors.
Careers end.
but.........
Sisters are there, no matter how much time and how many miles are between you. A girl friend is never farther away than needing her can reach. When you have to walk that lonesome valley and you have to walk it by yourself, the women in your life will be on the valley's rim, cheering you on, praying for you, pulling for you, intervening on your behalf, and waiting with open arms at the valley's end. Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk beside you...Or come in and carry you out. Girlfriends, daughters, granddaughters, daughters-in-law, sisters, sisters-in-law, Mothers, Grandmothers, aunties, nieces, cousins, and extended family, all bless our life!
The world wouldn't be the same without women, and neither would I. When we began this adventure called womanhood, we had no idea of the incredible joys or sorrows that lay ahead. Nor did we know how much we would need each other. Every day, we need each other still. Pass this on to all the women who help make your life meaningful. I just did.
ps : my mother forwarded this to me. So, it must be right.
i never had any sisters in my life. so, all the girls out there are really sisters to me. love you all!

Me Working at Draften.

Just spent the whole day working today at Draften Design Management as a receptionist for a few weeks. it is tiring. Woke up at 7.30am and still was late for work. Typical. 3 jams to go true.

My Counter.


Answering calls, transfering calls, passing/receiving messages, receiving/ sorting mails, answers, greets, attends to people who come into the office... it's easy to do them one at a time but when you are trying to transfer a call to the other line, other calls start coming in (two phones at the counter), some uncle standing at the counter asks for this certain employee while someone else's at the door buzzing u to let them in (door's locked unless u press this button), all starts coming down when u're trying to send the daily report in an SMS to the big managers and boss.. either that, or nothing happens at all and you're bored as hell, maybe just an occasional phone call.


actually, i'm not complaining as much. It was much harder when i first started last Wednesday. The current Receptionist was coincidently on leave that day and i was pretty much on my own. After working half a week, i had Convinced Melvin to work with me and he started off as an M&E Trainee today. he complained it was wicked Boring. Didn't do much, the person incharge of him asked him to read some engineering stuff.. or whatever that it called (pardon my term) and that was all he did all day. Poor baby..


Guai Zhai..


We finished work at 5.40pm and went to have dinner before going home. Feeling so bloody tired. He did too. I don't know it was out of lack of sleep, or yawning out of boredom. I think the latter. hehe.

Never let go..

~~



Last Friday night, it felt as though i was really one of those working people who really have to ease off the tension and stress and go for a night out. i did it with my girlfriends at Hartamas Sq right after work. Didn't change or anything. It was really just my second time being there. The first was the first time i saw Melvin AFTER we got together. Haha, i can still remember him coming towards me with all my friends sitting around a table after our Malam Anugerah event in 2005. It was a dark, thin shadow figure and he was wearing a cap. He patted on my head, i held my breath and gave out that awkward look i always do (trying to change that!! be natural!!!) and everyone went, "awwwww...." hehe.. With him was Joshua and Jon, i think..

Me and Suyen on the way to Mich's house.


All four of Us.





Anyways, we shisha-ed and talked and laughed and ate and drank!! Meiwen was trying to blow smoke out her ears and i was trying to blow out smoke rings. it was really funny. We laughed at almost anything. Su Yen laughed only at really funny stuff and mich, hmmm, got a bit. :) i actually got high from Shisha. On the way to the toilet i couldn't balance much and meiwen was holding my hand. i love her smoooth smoooth handss.. as u can see from the pics, i was wearing this shirt and i was wondering if people thought we were lessssss.. haha.




MeiWen looks so Cute when she tried to do that!! XD



Me and MeiWen.



Michelle. Smokey-smokey??


Candid.



melvin joined in halfway cause he was fetching me back. thanks biee! Anyways, in the middle of everything, i took out a flask of warm water out to drink. Everyone was looking at me, like.. "what the..????" i went -_-"........ "Mama said warm water's good for health........." Everyone went berserk... but it is true. Warm water is really better for your body than cold water. Better for your uterus and ovaries and women, especially. So Don't Laugh.


Note MeiWen's Espression..

Melvin and his shisha-obsessed face.


Me Scaring him off, agaiN?

Lost???
I loved that, gals, let's do it agaiN!! with all the girls this time kay?? muaksss!
That's all for now! See ya!

First Few Weeks of 2007.

sorry guys, Haven't updated in a while. let's see, what's been happening since new years..?

1) Sang karaoke for courtesy in front of my mom, dad and their friends. My heart went like beating so hard and some of my voice got stuck at my throat. After a while, I actually enjoyed it. Not only do you get addicted to it, you also get lots of compliments pouring out though deep down, we know they're just saying that to give face. But it won't hurt to just believe them!! ;)

2) Went to June's Birthday Party. Saw Michelle there. Haven't seen her for a while. Really caught up. Finally wore that top she really liked from Australia. And damn, they really like Poker. Thanks for having me there, June!



there she is, camwhoring with my camera... tsktsk.. (cept that first one there.) ;)

michelle and me.. she's my loverrrrRRR..

the "poker table".

bie and i.

birthday girl - June.



3) Went Shopping with bie!! Spent a whole lot lot lot of money. hehe. Loved it. Though still not enough to fill up that void of wanting more. more. more. shopping anyone??


4) Watched "Night In The Museum". A really good and funny show. Please watch it. Please!!

5) Caught up with Beeli in her house. Talked about love, life, religion, .. not enough time to talk though.. went back early. Missed ya beeli!


Beeli and i.


6) Went to Akon's Concert in Ruums in KL. Thanks to Melvin whose Friend June who got free tickets from another friend. Thank you so so much! It was so packed there wasn't enough room to move about! There was Jon, June, melvin and i. Melvin and i just wanted to go to the entrance to meet his sis, and seriously, we couldn't move! and one young man was getting grumpy cause everyone kept pushing and he was saying loudly, "there's no space to move!" and that's even before it started. Yeah, then the songs played, Benny D came out, then Akon. The performance was not bad, really. it was great. there was this one part where they had a few girls and guys up to dance. then when the guys danced really badly, Akon said he and his friend Benny are gonna show us how it's done. Man, they grabbed hold of two girls. Once each, and started carrying them and humping them like how people would have sex standing up. we were shocked. some were laughing. one of the girl looked "violated" and she didn't seem fine. Yeah that seemed like the highlight of the evening. great lightings, great sound system.. Didn't bring my camera in. Should have though. went to a mamak place to drink and shisha before we went back. i was a lil dizzy for a while. mom sure was mad...




(please excuse all the camwhoring.. -_-" )

but all in all, i had a wonderful night, so

THANK YOU JUNEEE!!


5) The next day, i was caught by a policeman for running the red light. i was scared.. the guy was pointing at me and signalling me to pull over.. and i had my IC and driving license in my other bag for yesterday's event. i forgot all about it! my heart was beating really fast. Luckily my mom was beside me. She knew exactly what to do. I guess all of u do. i wind down my window, and he asked for my licence. we did what we did and we're free to go. Sometimes i am dissapointed with my country. but oh well, guess i'm not in a position to complain since i'm doing the exact same thing. yeah?


Me in my Room.

6) So now, i'm here. Blogging. Checking out my photos. i love make up. don't u? :)


By right, i should go to the office tomorrow. see how it goes. Let's hope i do. :) and this last picture cracks me up. i don't like melvin. ;p
