Lord of the Ring?

2010-06-16T08:58:00.000+08:00

I still can't get used to writing here. I feel so foreign, with all the different tool bar and fonts that I am seeing now compared to my domain's. I guess I really miss writing at my domain very much. =S

Btw, I finished the whole Lord of the Ring trilogy films. Note that I meant the films, not the books. I actually watched the third one before but, not the first two films. I tried reading one of the books but failed miserably because it was so difficult to read! Lol. I thought I would fall asleep while watching them but, no I didn't. Surprisingly, I survived the total of more than nine hours of all the three films combined and I really like them. Though I did not focus so much while watching, because I was actually online and playing FB and doing other things.

I think the films were so awesome that I actually dreamt of it for a few times! OK, the dreams weren't so happy-ever-after but, I realised that I was so affected by it. I woke up everytime feeling so blur and there was even once when my mum was trying to wake me up, it's just wasn't registered in my mind that I was sleeping! I didn't even realised that I was sleeping. =S I guess that's what you call getting drunk in sleep. Haha!

How I wish I have the determination to read the books. Maybe I shall give it a try. Who knows since I'm older now, I might be able to understand? Hmm... Anyone who has LOTR books? =)

New design on an Old blog

2010-06-15T18:49:00.000+08:00

I am feeling real down now. Seems like my domain is dying and I have no idea what is going on. I just have to hope and pray that I can get it back because I don’t have an extra copy of the posts that I had written there. It’s the thought of losing the things that I had written there that pulls me down right now.

Even a good laksa cannot make me happy=(

I don’t know what to do. I really feel very down and annoyed because www.LynthiaWong.com is like a stepping stone for me. It’s the step for me to leave the pasts behind me here and start a whole new beginning there. If any of you have read what I wrote in this blog and also in my domain, you might be able to tell the difference. I was just starting to get used this whole new writing style and suddenly, I have to come back here.

You chia me Tony Romas also cannot guarantee that I will cheer up=(

Sorry, but I am really emo at the moment. Please do pray for me. Anyone who has any ideas on what’s going on and how to solve it, please let me know.

Meanwhile, I had re-design this blog. I just need to get away from my old blog’s look so, I don’t feel that bad. Hope you like that very cute pair of my Crocs. It’s symbolic too, OK?

P/s: I am only putting all these new posts under one category which is ‘Domain suspended’.

Account suspended!

2010-06-15T11:50:00.003+08:00

Yes, I am back here for the moment. Seems like there's something wrong with my domain's server so, the account is currently suspended. I really hope that I can get it back ASAP.

Meanwhile, I feel really empty. I don't have much things to do since my account was suspended. At first, I was relieved because I could take a break and not squeeze my mind for ideas. But, it's taking a long time to recover so, I am getting a little bit worried. Therefore, I am back here for the moment to write while waiting for my domain to be fixed.

I have no idea how many of you are still visiting here since I had stopped writing here. But, I hope this is just temporary. =) Please pray for me!

29th January 2010

2010-01-29T08:47:00.001+08:00

Today marks the 5th year of my blogging. Time flies! It seems like it’s just yesterday that I just started blogging. =)

So, as I had promised, my new domain is ready and up now!

www.LynthiaWong.com

It’s still very new and empty but, I’ll put more stuffs into it very soon! Btw, that picture is the header of my domain. Just photoshopped it yesterday. Very amateur! But, it’s a temporary one since I haven’t decide on how I want the header to be.

Please remember to change my link on your blogs or you can also add a new one. =) This blog will still be open for you to read my old posts. Enjoy!

Taking a Break

2010-01-24T13:45:00.006+08:00

Sorry people! I'm kind of taking a break from blogging while saving some interesting things to blog about for my new domain. So, you won't be seeing a lot of new posts here now. =( And so sorry too because I don't want to reveal my new address because there are some more things to settle. Don't worry, it'll definitely be ready on 29th Jan!

25th January is coming in less than a day time. And in case you're wondering what's up with this date, that's the date my results will be released. And duh! I'm nervous but, I'm remaining calm and committing my results into God's hands. Please, please pray for me! I want this to be good and I know it'll be because I have faith in Him. May God bless my results and that my results will be awesome to glorify His name. Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.

So, besides the 25th Jan issue, I've been working out lately on the treadmill and bicycle. It's tiring but, I feel really good and I know every minute of the pain, I'm slowly turning to the life of a healthy person. So, yes, it's worth the sweat and pain. Also, I just started taking guitar lessons. Today is just my first day and I like it! I'm taking the lessons with Lynna. Reason why I'm taking guitar lessons again is because I need to brush up my skills. I need to learn the right way in order to play better next time. And not forgetting, I need to improve so I can play for church one day.

I guess I better take a rest now. Don't know why I'm feeling quite tired. Had been out every night last week and it's not a very good choice. Got to go rest before I start my workout today!

P/s: Please continue to pray for my results. I will call the college in the morning to ask for my results. My first time so, please pray for me! =)

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Update: I called to ask for my results this morning. Actually, I called for so many times but, it was too early. So, I called after my friend texted me. Thank you for all your prayers, I got 3 As and 1 B. Yes, you got it right. B for Physics. I'm very depressed but, no matter what, all glory to God. Praise the Lord for the rest of the As. There are so many things that happened to cause this B. Well, at least we all know who are those who played the important role in getting this B. =( Please, continue to remember me for your prayers. I really pray that I don't need to be returning to college so soon. So many things to do and I really need more of the time I have with family and friends. I don't want to waste it for other unnecessary things yet. Lastly, congrats to those for their awesome results! Praise the Lord and may God's name be glorified through our results!

Random Rambles

2010-01-14T14:33:00.001+08:00

There’s always a particular point when I will have nothing to blog at all. And at that time, I will always abandon my blog and wander aimlessly in time. Having nothing to blog about is very disheartening to me because I really take this as if it’s a part of me. To have the opportunity to blog to me is an opportunity to express myself.

As I read other blogs, I envy them for having so many things to blog about. No matter it’s about relationships, traveling to awesome places, advertorials or even random bla-blas, I always have this little dream in me to blog like them. To have so many things to say about something is what I’m secretly wishing for.

However, I always find myself setting a limit when I blog. It’s either I should prevent myself from saying something overboard or criticizing something that I’m unhappy with. And sometimes, I couldn’t even blog about something I’m very emo about especially my feelings to people. I think I’m too afraid of saying something that might cause people to hate me and attack my feelings. I’m such a coward!

And because of this, I want this to be one of my 2010 resolutions. That is to be more brave to blog about anything that I feel like talking about. To be able to blog more random bla-blas and stop limiting myself too much when I blog.

It’s time for me move on to be a better blogger. And hope you’ll find a better me in my new domain by end of this month.

Progress

2010-01-12T13:54:00.001+08:00

So sorry for not updating often lately. I have been quite busy. I am currently working on my domain to get it done before 29th January.

The design is not done yet. In fact, I haven’t get started with it! =(

However, I’m trying to complete a few more pages. And I’m now thinking whether to import all my posts here to the new domain or not. Please give me some suggestions. What would you all like? A fresh new domain or a domain which has all my old posts since the first day I started blogging?

I’ll let you all decide since you are the readers. So, decide well! =)

I guess I better get back to it now. Stay tune!

I'm On My Way

2010-01-10T11:54:00.003+08:00

Guess what?! I'm on my way to setting my new domain! I'm really excited about it but, please wait for about 2 weeks more. I need time to import all my posts since 2005 and I still have a web design to settle.

Hope it's going to be done by 29 Jan 2010.

Btw, I just got back from church today. The sermon today was awesome. Pastor preached about spiritual gifts. Something that I have been thinking and praying a lot about. And I am still discovering that very special gift God has given to me.

This is just a short, random post. Will update soon with more complete posts. =) God bless!

Poor Vision

2010-01-08T12:23:00.000+08:00

Don’t get me wrong. It’s not the vision of my life or what-so-ever. What I mean by poor vision is my eye-sight.

It’s getting worse. =(

I went to make a new pair of glasses 2 nights ago and I was told that my astigmatism has increased! However, my degree for both eyes are still the same. At least I could comfort myself with this.

I chose a pair of simple black framed glasses =)

My previous astigmatism for right eye was 1.75 and now, it increased to 2.00! As for the left eye, it was 1.50 and now, it’s 1.75.

I wanted something like this! But, to be practical, I had to ditch this. =(

Apoo… I think I need to reduce my time of watching TV while going online on my laptop and also the DS Lite habit every night. Otherwise, my eye-sight will get even worse!

Meanwhile, I think I better start eating more carrots. Help~

Once My 2nd Home

2010-01-07T15:10:00.000+08:00

I had spent half a decade of my life there.

The place where I once called my 2nd home because that’s where I spent most of my time. This place, which has a very special place in my heart, I call it St. Co.

Everyone will grow up one day. And for some people, school is just something less important and after graduating, they will soon forget about it. But, I’m different.

Why do I love my school so much?!

Not only did I got to know so many awesome friends whom I am so thankful for today, St. Co was the place I grew up learning so many things that I wouldn’t have if I was at another school.

All the things that I had gone through, whether it’s about Leo Club or Prefectorial Board, had taught me to be the person whom I am today.

Honestly, studying in St. Co for 5 years is one of my happiest moments in life. I’m just so thankful that I got to be part of this school.

Sometimes, I feel so funny and silly when thinking about my 5 years there. But, that’s also why people call it ‘the good old times’.

Yesterday, I just got a call from Lynna while running on the treadmill. She asked me to share something for the Form 1 orientation. I didn’t think much but, I just agreed.

And now, I’m panicking. I don’t know what to say. There are so many things to share but, I need to find the right thing to talk about. Must pray about it.

I know this is quite a random post but, I just suddenly got this reminiscing mood at the moment. =)

I b.liv

2010-01-06T13:07:00.000+08:00

It was a few months back when I was still in college. I came across a blog and that’s where the b.liv Tagline Search Contest caught my attention. Feeling confident (just a little bit la!), I decided to join.

I submitted 4 taglines because I was kind of kiasu and couldn’t make up my mind which to send in. Lol!

Here’s some of the taglines I sent:

And of course, I got some help from Joanna and Yasmin too. =)

And on 25 Nov 2009, I received an email informing me that I won 2 categories! Yay! =) So, I got my junior to help me collect and post back the prizes back to me. After a month of waiting, I finally got it and guess who was trying to snatch the prizes away from me?!

Shoobie! So naughty. I didn’t even get to take a picture with my prizes. Haha! Don’t you think Shoo is soooo cute? Look at how happy he is in the picture. >_<

Those 2 hampers cost RM700 of b.liv products. I heard the products are really good so, I can’t wait to use it!

Thank you, b.liv!

Best Friend TV

2010-01-05T15:58:00.000+08:00

I’m not sure whether I have mentioned this here before. TV is my best friend.

Hahahahahaha!!!

Yeah. Seriously. Since young, I love watching TV. I watch all kinds of shows; drama series, reality shows, talk shows and etc.

I think that’s where I developed my interest in acting. Because I tend to imitate and learn how the actors portray their characters. Soon, I learnt how to cry easily. Interesting eh? Too bad no where for me to apply my skills. =(

Btw, that’s not the whole point of this post.

So, here’s how I spend my everyday routine with my best friend:

My routine usually starts in the afternoon.

3.30pm – 4.30pm AEC ‘You’re My Destiny’ (Taiwanese drama)

4.30pm – 5.30pm AEC ‘Stepping Out’ (Singaporean drama)

7.00pm – 8.00pm AEC ‘Table of Glory’ (Singaporean drama)

8.00pm – 8.30pm Random channels like AFC, HMK, AXN

8.30pm – 10.30pm 8TV ‘Boys Over Flowers’ (Korean drama), AEC ‘E-News’ (Taiwanese) and WLT ‘Gem of Life’ (HK drama)

10.30pm – 11.00pm Random channels too

Usually, from 8.30pm to 10.30pm, I will be switching channels in between commercial breaks just so I can watch all together. And most of the time in the morning, I’ll either watch random channels or just go online. That’s why I don’t go online that often at night. Hehe…

I might sound like a TV freak or a TV desperado but, let me tell you this. I will not die without TV. I survived a long time without it when I was in college.

But, this addiction of mine will start whenever I’m free and have a TV around. For now, I want to watch as much as I can because I don’t think I will have the time and TV when I start studying again. That’s going to be for a long time. =(

Alright! I think I better get back to the treadmill while watching TV. =)

I ♥ Langkawi cont.

2010-01-02T15:07:00.000+08:00

After island hopping, we met the Singaporean couple again at the Jetty Point after lunch.

We went to the tour agent office and decided to go to the cable car together. So, there we went!

Cable Car of Langkawi Geopark =)

It was quite a long journey there. Took about 20-30 minutes to reach the place. It’s located at the Oriental Village. We walked around the place a while before finding the cable car station.

When we got there, there were soooo many people queuing! But, determined to go for it, we joined the queue and waited for about 1 hour.

At the 2nd station up at the hill!

It was worth the waiting. And just like what I had mentioned on my previous post, the cable car ride was very scary!

Took this picture while on our way down…

Zoomed in to take this awesome picture of the 7 wells =)

It’s more than 700m above sea level and worst of all, it has the steepest gradient of 42°. It terrified me that I was holding on to the handle and praying all the time! Didn’t know I have fear of heights.

Look at how steep the cable was!

But, once we were up there, the view was spectacular and the temperature was lower. Love the place there. It was breathtaking!

Love the view up there!

With Mummy and Lynna =)

After snapping enough pictures there, we went to queue up again to go back to the ground. The ride then, was more relaxing and less terrifying. =) Phew!

I looked more relaxed when on the way down…

Later, we went to the mini zoo beside the station. Not many animals there. Just rabbits and deer which we could actually touch and feed. So cute!

Cute deer!

Then, we went to the Eagle’s Bay to take pictures! It’s very near to the Jetty Point, where we were earlier. The van driver told us that the eagle statue costed RM2 millions! No wonder so huge. =)

♥ Mummy and Daddy ♥

What a day in Langkawi! It was super fun and enjoyable. I totally didn’t expect it to be so fun. Glad we met the couple in hotel. We even ended up going around the town together for the whole day! What a blessing. =)

Verdict? Langkawi is a must go! Either with family (recommended) or friends, just go and you wouldn’t regret this.

Happy New 2010 Year!

2010-01-01T08:05:00.000+08:00

Time flies. So fast that it feels as if it’s just yesterday that I was still in secondary school.

I kinda miss school!

Looking back on 2009, this very chapter of my life had been a great blessing from God.

CF rocks, God rocks!

Although there were times of trials and difficulties, they were all lessons that God wants me to learn. I never regret going through all these.

Trials and difficulties include gaining weight. But, I will not give up. Please pray for me =)

And now, here comes 2010!

The year when I will turn a year older (duh!). Not that I care so much but, I will be turning 2 decades old!

20! 20! 20! 20!

The year when I will (might) be flying to a country which I have never stepped a foot in to study.

India, here I come.

The year when things will definitely change. And I hope the changes are good!

I cannot guarantee whether I, myself would change but, I can promise that I will improve and be a better person for God and everyone whom I love.

So, I guess it’s goodbye 2009 and hello to 2010. =)

Yippee!!

I ♥ Langkawi

2009-12-31T08:41:00.000+08:00

After meeting the Merlion, we continued our vacation to Langkawi!

Bye bye, Singapore!

Trust me, it’s not a good idea to do that. Firstly, the flights there really drained our energy. By the time we arrived, we were so exhausted!

Secondly, it’s a huge change. Travelling from such a developed country to a very small town really made a big difference. Couldn’t adapt to it for the first few hours but, soon, we realised Langkawi could offer us something that Singapore couldn’t.

"But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as EAGLES they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint" Isaiah 40:31

The beautiful islands and beaches!

The speed boat we used to travel!

We were in Langkawi for just 2 days & 2 nights coz’ we only arrived there at night. So, there weren’t enough time to do a lot of things!

We were thinking of renting a car. So, on the next day, Daddy called to ask about it. While waiting at the lobby, we met a couple there. They were very nice to us that they recommended the island hopping tour they were joining.Since the deal was quite good, we decided to ditch the car rental idea and went island hopping!

At the jetty =)

It was quite an impulsive decision but, we totally loved it! The sea was great and I loved the whole tour.

We went to 2 islands and a fish farm. First island was just a place to swim but, all of us didn’t want to waste our time there since nobody planned to get wet, so we skipped it.

Then, we went to watch eagles feeding. The eagles were small but, it was very interesting to watch. They fed them chicken skins because chicken skins could float on the water.

Pic blurr because of shaky boat and poor skills (duh!)…

Later, we went to the fish farm. It’s like a small hut in the middle of the sea. They got a very big, yellow shark there. Others were big fishes but, I think they were baby sharks.

Family pic!

A while after, we proceeded to the famous island, Dayang Bunting Island. There, located the biggest lake in Langkawi, the Lake of the Pregnant Lady. It’s a fresh water lake so, it was quite amazing to have a fresh water lake on an island in the sea.

Fatty lady in the pic! Haha=)

We went for a boat paddle. We got the automated boat coz’ we were too tired to paddle. Lol!

Lynna and me on paddle boat=)

While we were busy paddling, Mummy, who were sitting at the hut, saw a Singaporean actor! So lucky. And she claimed that she got to talk to him. Too bad she didn’t get to take a picture with him. No camera with her that time! =(

After about 1 hour there, we left. It was a quite trip back to the jetty because everyone was tired but, we enjoyed it very much! Amazing experience to see God’s awesome creations.

No doubt, I ♥ Langkawi!

P/s: Stay tune for more on my last Langkawi post!

Donations, please!

2009-12-30T08:47:00.000+08:00

This is so embarrassing!

I know a lot of you have already noticed me wearing the same tee over and over again. =(

Karaoke in Nov.

The green tee that I had been wearing to watch tennis, sing karaoke and even to Singapore trip!

Singapore trip in Dec.

It’s not like I only have one tee to wear but, I’m lacked of nice tees! No money to get nice ones.

ATP Malaysian Open in beginning Nov.

Donations, please? =(

Just kidding larr… I just like to wear it because it’s comfortable for me to wear to various events and places. It’s all about comfort right? But, a wider range of nice tees will do better for me. So, time to save $$$!! Lol.

Taking a Break =)

2009-12-28T18:22:00.000+08:00

Let’s take a break from all the posts about my vacation alright? Here we go!

I was telling everyone in the car while on our way back to Miri from Sarikei, how much I miss singing karaoke. I’m not a frequent karaoke singer but, the fact that Green Box and Red Box are super good makes me want to sing again.

I know I looked awfully pale here because, I didn’t sleep well the night before… =(

Right after my last paper, I brought Sherp, together with my friends, to Seremban. We went to the Green Box in Jusco and sang 4 hours non-stop.

After our karaoke sesson at Green Box.

Next day, Sherp, NingJie and I went to Red Box for 4 hours again!

Singing non-stop.

I’m a no singer but, seriously, I enjoy singing very much! It’s just that I can’t sing on the right key. Still learning.

Unlike Sherp and my friends, they are awesome singers!

Plus, I can’t sing Chinese songs because I can’t read Chinese words. But, I like Chinese songs. So, the solution for me is to just simply mumble the words with the right tune.

Despite all these hurdles, I find singing helps me to relax more.

Look at our smiles! We looked so relaxed…

How I wish there’s a Green Box here in Miri! It’s so much cheaper and the facilities are superb. Good thing about it is that there are no 不三不四 people lingering around the place. All clean and safe.

I think I should just learn how to sing well so I can sing better next time when I go karaoke with friends. By that time, I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t be needing the cotton buds anymore. Lol!

I’m gonna sing better the next time you see me! Muahahahaa…

Meeting the Merlion III

2009-12-27T20:00:00.000+08:00

It has been ages since the last time I stepped into a zoo. And the last time I did was at the National Zoo Malaysia (Very near to room mate’s house) when I was 10. And all I could remember about it was the stinky smell of the animals. =(

So, this time, at the age of 19, I gave it a try again at Singapore Zoo.

With family!

And honestly, even at this age of mine, I still find it enjoyable and fun to visit the zoo. And this time, there was no stinky smell!

Clean and comfortable =)

Ok, maybe I had a blocked nose that time but, the zoo is super clean. Awesome place for family outing.

Crazy hippo!

We didn’t spend the whole day there. We just walked around for about 2 hours there coz’ we skipped some animals like monkeys. I don’t like monkeys btw. =(

With Lynna and Mummy.

We focused more on cuter animals which reminds us of Shoo and HeiQ! For examples, polar bears, white tiger and maybe elephant(?). Haha!

So cute the white tiger!

The elephants there are super adorable too!

We also saw some interesting animals like wild boars. I think they are cute but, a little bit ugly. Sorry, I’m being a little paradox. Lol.

I think the horns-look-alike are their teeth… Kind of cute in certain ways. Lol!

We didn’t watch a lot of shows as we were quite early but, managed to catch the feeding time for the polar bears. I love them! The one we saw is called Inuka and he’s 19 too! Daddy really thinks he looks like Shoo that he now calls Shoo the same name. –_-||

Cute Inuka!

After almost completing the whole place, we decided to stop and leave. Sad part was that we couldn’t find where the lions are. =( But, it’s alright since we already have a lion at home. Hehe..

With cousin, Lynn Hee =)

I don’t mind going to a zoo or a safari(!) again next time. It’s really fun and I got to see so many cute animals real life rather than from the TV only.

Plus, I really like this zoo because it’s so beautiful, clean and has loads of cute animals. I just like how they organise all the animals. Lovely place and highly recommended to everyone of all ages. =)

Maybe I should just transport myself to the safari? Haha!

Meeting the Merlion II

2009-12-26T08:18:00.000+08:00

Since most of the shops there open by 11am, we went to walk around the city since we woke up super early on the second day!

Peek-a-boo!

I woke up at 6am. Sounds like jetlag to me. Ok, I’m kidding. But, somehow, I did wake up at 6am and after breakfast, we went out to walk.

First place, the ‘Durian’ building. It’s actually Esplanade but, the building looks like durian so, I guess that’s why people call it so. As usual, we used the underpass to get there. Not far at all.

On our way to Esplanade.

With Mummy outside building!

Then, we walked further to the bridge and there, we could see the Singapore Flyer! I really wanted to go but, no one was interested. =(

I love the view here! The white balloons floating on the water are all Christmas wishes written by people =)

Near to it is the Las Vegas Sands. I heard about it before and now, I got to see it. I think the structures are very interesting.

Cool eh?

The whole place was full of tourists from different places. So, it was quite difficult to take photos since everyone was taking them at the same time.

So many people walking along the bridge! Mummy and Daddy pointing at the Merlion, I think.

And further up is the Merlion! The weather was super hot that I got a little annoyed. Wished it’s winter. =(

Hot and sunny weather made me couldn’t open my eyes bigger =(

After a while, we walked back to SRC through a different route which I thought was nearer. Got to see other interesting buildings as well.

And, at 11am, it’s back to shopping again! =)

Merry Christmas!

2009-12-25T08:16:00.000+08:00

To everyone,

Merry Christmas!

May God bless all of you on

this very special day, the birth

of our Lord, Jesus Christ!

Meeting the Merlion I

2009-12-24T12:23:00.000+08:00

Can’t think of a good title to go with my Singapore post so, I wrote there “Meeting the Merlion”. Unique eh?

At Changi Airport =)

I’ll be away again for Christmas so, got to update this blog ASAP.

I was in Singapore for 4 days & 3 nights. It was quite a random trip for me as I didn’t plan much. So, I just shopped most of the time.

Now I realise how small my eyes are! Tsk tsk tsk…

We stayed at Singapore Recreation Club, just across the street from City Hall. So, what we did was walk across the street and use the underpass to go to other shopping places.

Well, that’s not all. We went to other places as well. But, since Daddy wasn’t feeling well, we didn’t travel much.

At a place near to where we stayed…

Verdict? We ♥ Singapore! A pure super place. Super clean, super efficient, super fun, super cool and many more supers. Definitely a good place to go shopping if you are super rich. But, for people like me, who can’t spend as much as she wants, it’s still affordable with all the sales and discounts. Just that you have to hunt more. =)

Me love this place!

Stay tune for more posts on me meeting the Merlion! Will update on my visits to other places. =)

I ♥ Langkawi

2009-12-23T19:12:00.000+08:00

Hey hey!

Guess where I am now? Currently at KLIA waiting for my next flight back home. So exhausted at the moment. =(

But, I had tremendous fun in Langkawi! Honestly, the place reminds us very much of Sarikei. The town is pretty small and not much developed. But somehow, the tourist attractions are amazing.

We went island hopping with other families including a Singaporean couple whom we met at the budget hotel we stayed. They are very nice people and we ended up going to the cable car together!

Talking about cable cars, the one we went to was terrifying! We went up to more than 700m above sea level. And, the cable car has the steepest inclination of 42°. You tell me, scary of not?!

No photos yet as I haven’t uploaded any photos into my laptop.

I owe you all a few posts on my Singapore and Langkawi trips. So, stay tune!

Scrambled!

2009-12-21T14:22:00.000+08:00

I have been living here in Miri for more than a decade. But, when asked, “Where is the best kueh chap here?” or “What’s the most popular food here in Miri?”, I will completely go nuts.

Anyone knows whether the sotong bakar at Taman Selera are good or where else?

Forgive me, but I feel like a noob as a Mirian. I realised I don’t know much thing about this awesome place. Maybe because I had been shut off from the world for the past 10 years due to the hectic life of a student.

Arcade, anyone?

Seriously, I didn’t go out often and always stayed at home studying. The times when I go out were all to tuitions.

My beloved high school!

Ok, Ok. Maybe not that sad. I did go out once in a while to shopping malls. And now, I go out more with friends. But, still, I don’t know much. Plus, the places that I go out to eat are always the same and I’m not even sure whether it’s nice or not. I don’t really have good taste buds.

Anyone knows where’s the best laksa in Miri?

I’m hosting a big group of friends from West Malaysia. I’m supposed to plan everything which include bringing them to the best food, interesting places and other important stuffs. OMG. What to do?

Should I bring them to eat crabs? To where then?

Dim Sum at 2020?

Suggestions please, people! I need ideas on where should I bring my friends to and what kind of food should I bring them to eat. I hope I can be a good host and definitely, I hope they’re going to enjoy Miri!

Got to bring them to Esplanade too!

P/s: Please email me here or leave a comment for ideas and suggestions. TQ!

The Perfect Plot

2009-12-20T10:48:00.000+08:00

Just finished the The Time Traveler’s Wife. Quite an interesting plot and I kind of like how the author design the whole story.

Sometimes, I really wonder how a person could write such a long story without getting lost in the story. I wonder how a person could write such a balanced story without creating one part of the story too specific and another part too brief.

Well, of course these don’t apply to the author herself but, other book authors as well.

So, which book do you think has the perfect plot?

Honestly, I would say the Bible.

The Book, God’s Words, written by so many authors. Although so, it still has the perfect plot. Nothing went out of topic. Despite the length of time taken (over centuries, correct me if I’m wrong) to complete, everything goes perfectly in order.

Such an awesome book.

Though I haven’t read the whole Bible, I want to. Please pray for the discipline that I need and guidance as I read. Pastor Kenneth is right. If we could finish books of hundreds of pages, why not the Bible?

"All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." 2 Timothy 3:16-17

Year End Holiday!

2009-12-18T09:14:00.000+08:00

Guess where I’m going this time?

S-I-N-G-A-P-O-R-E

I had never really been to Singapore for a holiday before. First time was when I was a little baby, so not a single memory about it. Second time was when I fly to Japan. I had to transit at the airport for a few hours when I fly there and stayed a night when I fly back.

So, this time, I get to have longer time there and also, I’m going with my family. I hope we’ll gonna enjoy this! I can’t wait to meet my aunties too. =)

Besides, I’m going to…

L-A-N-G-K-A-W-I

I haven’t been there for a long time. The last time I went was when I was 5 or 6 years old. So long time ago. So, hopefully, I get to see how much it has changed since then.

I can’t promise that I’ll update this blog often while I’m away but, I’ll try my best alright? So, please stay tune!

Long time ago…

2009-12-17T12:30:00.000+08:00

Kristine just tagged me 2 photos of me and some old friends on facebook. Guess how long back then?

Michelle, Kim, Me and a friend (I forgot who.. Sorry!) =)

5 years ago!

We’re Form 2 when Michelle and I attended the 'No Apologies’ workshop organised by my church. Back then, Michelle was a free thinker but, look at her now! She’s not only my bestie but also my sister-in-Christ!

We’re supposed to use this picture as our Moral project!

Talking about ‘No Apologies’, I still have the pledge card with me in my purse. Anyone still keeping it?

How I miss those old days!

New Hair Cut

2009-12-17T08:41:00.000+08:00

I had a new hair cut about a week ago. =(

My hair right before I got it chopped!

I wanted to do something to my hair like, either relax or rebond it. But, Mummy wanted me to just cut it.

So, there I went.

Just took this picture, so it should be a little shorter when I cut it last week…

I have natural curls but, it seems like my hair is always looking so messy because it’s quite short. So, the saloon owner suggested me to keep longer hair so, it’ll look just nice with the natural curls.

I want long hair!!! But, I got to wait longer and try get some slight trim every once a while.

Seriously… I can’t imagine myself with long hair. Can you?

Should Have Been There At 13

2009-12-15T15:43:00.000+08:00

I now realised that I’m a little bit too old for Sunway Lagoon. Should have been there when I was 13 years old. Or a year or two older, not at 19.

But, sometimes, age doesn't matter especially you’re there people you love! I was there with my dear cousins right after my exams, sometime in November.

I was really looking forward to going to Sunway Lagoon as it was one of my little dreams when I was young. Don’t know why my parents didn’t bring me there when we fly to KL last time.

The place wasn’t that crowded. The queues are all quite short, just like when we went to Paris Disneyland. But, honestly, I thought the place was quite boring. Not many fun rides to go to. Well, unless you are willing to pay more to go for the Extreme Park.

The only extreme ride I went on was the Pirate Ship. And honestly, it was terrifying! Not only they have 360° turn, the speed was super slow. So, imagine how horrifying it is to actually have your whole body turned in a very slow speed. Plus with all the blood that rushed to your brain. OMG. I was so horrified that I didn’t even scream.

Ah Wei, Sherp and I on the ride! Notice the red box… Haha!

Look at us after the ride =(

Well, at first, we planned to go there without getting wet. So, I packed light and didn’t bring any extra clothes. However, due to the weird promotion, it seems cheaper to buy the tickets for both dry and wet parks rather than just the dry park. So, we got to go to the wet park.

And the consequences…

Power Rangers!

The water rides were quite fun. I was a little worried about the aftermath since I didn’t even bring an extra clothes! But, I soon forgot about it and started to enjoy the rides.

My water ride partner, a lady from Aus.

After playing here and there, we decided to head back to Sunway Pyramid. That’s where the problem started. No clothes to change to! So, what to do?

I squeezed my tee and shorts till there were no water dripping and stepped into the mall. Not forgetting the part where someone opened my toilet door while I was changing! I didn’t lock my door coz’ it was spoiled so, I just thought no one would open it. So embarrassing!!! Haha…

Totally drenched! –_-||

It was so uncomfortable and I was shivering coz’ it was so cold! So, people, lesson of the day is to bring extra clothes to theme park no matter you are playing water or not! Just bring!

Everybody’s Best Friends

2009-12-13T13:58:00.000+08:00

It has been ages since the last time I blogged about my 2 best friends at home.

Shoo and HeiQ!!! It’s so hard to express how cute they are coz’ it’s just indescribable.

So cute and elegant even when Shoo is sleeping!

Shoo is a natural poser and he’s so photogenic. He is a no-camera-shy dog as he is used to people taking pictures of him since a few weeks old! And he’s one dog who loves people to groom him. During normal times, he won’t bother to even look at you but, once you lift up his brush, he’ll come straight to you and ask you to brush his fur. So adorable! He’s like our teddy bear. <3

Just about 3-4 weeks old!

And now, he’s so big and still cute! I love this pic of Shoo posing like this.. Natural poser!

And HeiQ, intelligent! She’s so smart that you don’t even need to train her to get her to sit or do any stunts. She knows them all! I have no idea how she learned all these things. Especially the newspapers trick that we discovered she could do 2 years ago. She’s really one amazing and observant dog.

One of the smartest dogs I had ever seen…

She loves car rides!

Everyone who meets them will love them! They are just so irresistible to love. Ahh!!! I just want to squeeze and hug them so much. But, sometimes Shoo doesn’t like people to hug him too much. Hehe!

But, one thing I notice about them. They don’t like to listen to me playing guitar! I had been playing guitar frequently after dinner. It’s the time they have dinner. And I notice they would quickly finish their food and run away to play instead of lazing around the patio with me. =( I thought they like the guitar! Hmph!

My guitar! Ermm.. It’s actually ErJie’s but, I’m using it now =) Hehe!

Kay-Tee-Tee IV

2009-12-12T12:02:00.000+08:00

Juniors. The juniors in my college is definitely different from my secondary school’s juniors. In the old days in secondary school, juniors are more likely to be referred as the prefects’ juniors. Not really the students who are younger than our batch.

But, that’s secondary school. Not in college.

When the juniors came in, I didn’t think I would be free or even willing to get to know them. Maybe it’s because I wasn’t close to my seniors. I was only close to Sharlyne and a few CF seniors. Call me anti-social but, not many of my seniors hang out with my friends and I. I seriously don’t know much about them.

So, when the juniors entered college, I didn’t really want to hang out much with them. But, they’re too cute to resist! Talking about the CF juniors, they are awesome. They are people who are full of excitement, enthusiasm, love, surprise, and the list goes on…

It’s really sad coz’ when I was just starting to hang out with them and get to know them better, I had to leave college. It was just a few weeks before I graduated from college that I started to join them in the library to study. It was really fun studying with juniors, with all those gossips, jokes, chats and not forgetting, the high-risks-of-getting-diabetes candies.

Cute Willy and Edwin!

Talking about studying with juniors, I also started to study with another group of juniors every night in the empty room just below my apartment. They are mostly 1-year students except this girl who everyone claimed to look like me! But, I must admit, we do have quite a few similarities.

We look alike meh? I think she looks more like Ah Ning =)

We became good friends in just a short time. Chai Lian and I just love to dig their secrets out and they were scared of us that they would tell us their little secrets. So cute of them. They are all very caring and kind to me.

Studying illegally at 2am in the empty classroom…

And sometimes I think that, it’s not always the seniors who teach the juniors but the other way round too. For me, I think they had taught me a lot of things and I’m really thankful for having them as my juniors.

P/s: So sorry! I don’t have pictures of the rest like, Sui Seng, Hau Seng, John and a few more. =( Got to get some from Chai Lian next time. I miss you all!

I Can Smell It

2009-12-11T12:51:00.000+08:00

It’s going to be a long holiday. I can smell it. I love the smell of the long, free holidays. <3

I’m digesting the holidays slowly. Don’t care whether it’s doing any harm to my system but, I just want to relax and spend some quality time with family and friends.

Plus, I got a list of things to do. Well, more like a list of things to buy. Haha…

But, I think I need to set some priorities. I had been planning to set up my own domain. Not sure when will I get it done since I have not decide on anything yet. I need to find a proper name for my domain coz’ I don’t feel like using my name. I need suggestions, people!

And also I need people to set up the domain for me. Since Dr. Wong is always busy, I will have to wait for the right time when she’s around. And also the time when she’s not sleepy and tired.

Oh ya! Not forgetting, I need someone to design my domain. Maybe not that soon. Not really the whole website. The header itself will do, just like mine here. It was designed by my ex-classmate. But, problem is, I don’t know what kind of theme I want. I guess I don’t want pink anymore. Hmph!

I hope I can get it done well. Hopefully it’ll be done by 29 January 2010. Why? Please don’t misunderstand the reason why just coz’ it’s LMC’s birthday but, it’s not! Haha… It’s because it’ll be my blog’s 5th anniversary! I’m a little blur about the date though but, I’ll just take the date of very first post.

So, please pray for me about this! And anyone who has ideas or can help, please let me know alright? Thank you!

Kay-Tee-Tee III

2009-12-10T12:00:00.000+08:00

A special post dedicated to my college’s Christian Fellowship. My little testimony about me in CF.

CF every Wednesday night.

The place I went every Wednesday, the people I joined every Wednesday and the fellowship I had with them every Wednesday.

I had learned so much about God in CF. I had gotten closer to God through CF.

As I had mentioned in my first Kay-Tee-Tee post, I had never really joined such a fellowship when I’m back in my hometown. It’s my very first time joining CF and I know it’s exactly what God wanted me to do when He put me there at the first place.

CF was where I got to know so many awesome people. Regardless of speakers, visitors, seniors, friends or juniors, they are all awesome people who had brought inspirations to my life. They are truly, a blessing to me.

I was once a shy girl who refused to lead a prayer or just even to voice out her thoughts and opinions during meetings. I was scared to say or ask anything because I didn’t want to look like a fool who doesn’t know a thing. I was just too embarrassed to do so.

But, every since joining CF, I started to open up. I started to stop feeling shy or embarrassed and asked questions when I don’t understand some things. I started to share my thoughts when my CF leader asked me to. And I started to lead prayers when somebody asked me to. I feel so good because I now know that what I’m doing are all for God. Why feel so shy or embarrassed? It’s a blessing to do it. Why not?

I <3 CF. I <3 God. =)

Why So Slow?

2009-12-09T18:45:00.001+08:00

Can anyone explain to me why are all my downloads are getting slower and slower everyday?

It usually takes me about 45mins up to 1 hour to download an album of songs. But, now, it takes me 8 hours!

Weird. Any ideas why?

My New Job

2009-12-05T23:04:00.000+08:00

I think I just got myself a new job.

Joaquina Lim Siew Siew’s PA. Personal Assistant. She calls me her secretary but I prefer the title “PA”.

What do I do as her PA?

1. Follow her around the town.

2. Manage her phone contacts (By saving her contacts into her new phone, Nokia N86 – Lovely phone!).

3. Help to buy phone reloads for her.

4. Hold the umbrella up for her where ever she goes in the rain.

5. Park her car when she on her phone (Only once and it was in a very short distance only!).

6. Keep her car keys.

7. Take photos of her events.

8. Prepare sanitizer and tissues (Dry & wet tissues) for her.

9. Breaking crabs’ shells for her when she makan crabs.

10. Guiding her a little bit on how to use her new phone.

Funny right? Haha…

But, despite all these things, I enjoy hanging out with my bestie very much (Chelle too!).

And I don’t even think it’s a burden coz’ it’s not at all! That’s what besties are for right? And I guess if I can drive, she’ll definitely be my PA too! One day larr…

Gleek!

2009-12-04T10:42:00.000+08:00

My current favourite show – GLEE.

Thanks to my college juniors and friends, I’m officially a Gleek. But, I think it’s a good show for me coz’ I get to know more English songs since I don’t really like listening to them nowadays.

Well, the characters don’t really set good examples but, what I’m looking forward to every episodes are the songs and their performances. That’s what I like about Glee.

Here’s my random favourite character:

Although he’s gay in Glee (I think in real life too(?) according to Wikipedia), I like his singing especially Defying Gravity!

Kay-Tee-Tee II

2009-12-03T13:32:00.000+08:00

As you can see in my previous post, I’ll be doing a collection of Kay-Tee-Tee posts to conclude the 1.5 years of my life there. Reasons why I’m doing this are to share to people about my life in college and what I love about being in college. It’s definitely a blessing to be there and I hope it’s going to be the same when I go to India.

I guess I’ll continue the collection by writing about my housemates.

First day of the college, I was alone, with my sister. I didn’t really know anyone. So, while I was queuing up in front of the lecture hall’s entrance, an auntie came to me. She asked me where I’m from. I said “Miri” and she continued asking me whether I know Elise (Joa’s friend from NS and also my room mate’s friend).

I was so amazed by the auntie coz’ the girl she talked to was the one she actually know. And that was the first time I met my room mate, Oanna (Just kidding, her name is Joanna larr…).

Suraya labeled us as the 2 weird animals in Madagascar movie!

And there was Suraya, the girl who left a comment on my blog before we met. It’s such a coincidence coz’ we’re all kind of connected in all kind of ways.

Yasmin was the last one to reach the apartment. The first impression I had on her when I saw her was that she’s a very gentle but, spoilt girl. Haha… (I call her spoilt brat sometimes but, I know, it’s not nice to do so) And her first impression on me was I’m nice, quiet girl but, she then realised that it was a total opposite! Muahaha…

Yasmin is going to kill me for posting this pic up! Haha!!!

My best partner in Biology lab =)

So, all 3 of these girls who coincidentally come from KL and by all means, became my housemates. We’re all different people of different races and religions but, we managed to stay together in an apartment in peace and harmony. Guess we should be selected to be the ambassadors of 1Malaysia. Haha!

First time jogging together, 4 of us + Jun Mei + Haziqah

We grew close together and enjoyed each others’ company. We even had rankings for the most evil person in the apartment. And Suraya was No.1 because of her sarcasm, followed up by me because of my slappings and bullyings, Joanna came in third and lastly, Yasmin.

Went for a walk to release exam stress…

Not forgetting, we even made a list of guys for Joanna and stuck it to our wall for months before she tore it off. Haha! And also counseling Suraya about her ‘fly’ before finally seeing her changing her Facebook’s status to ‘Married’.

Can’t believe I’ll post this up right, Oanna? Haha!

Also Yasmin, my ALL/ALU9 housemate. The girl who always had to wake me up for classes. She’s one of my good friends in college whom I really liked talking to and also to bully. It’s so fun to bully her! Muahaha…

Studying together in library…

And if it’s not because of Joanna, I would not know how to play guitar by now. She’s an awesome room mate who’s always there to support me when I’m need them.

These 2 really have something for each other… =)

2-3-A2 is always the best! I’m going to miss you 3 girls a lot. I’m sure you girls will miss all my naggings to ask you all to clean the apartment. Muahahaa…

Ponggal Night =)

Before I end this post, I just want to thank these 3 wonderful girls, Joanna, Suraya and Yasmin. Thank you so much for filling the empty spaces in my heart, thank you for taking care of my when I’m sick especially that time when I twisted my ankle, thank you for tolerating my demands for the cleanliness of our apartment. There are still so many thank you’s I want to say to you girls but, if I am to list them all down here, I’ll take ages! But, most importantly, thank you for being my good friends.

Our very first picture together…

Promise we’ll be together again for KI, OK?

Kay-Tee-Tee I

2009-11-30T19:16:00.000+08:00

I had learned a lot of things when I was in college. The fact that I had to be away from home had really changed my life. I had grown to be more independent, made loads of good friends and realised how important family is to me.

But, there is still one thing that had really changed me. That one particular thing is God. When I was at this small, depressing place, I experienced God.

It’s funny coz’ when I knew I was going to this college, I questioned God why?

Why must it be here?

Now, I know why.

Before going to this college, I was quite an anti-social when it comes to church. I didn’t have a lot of friends there. In fact, I was bullied when I was in Sunday School and because of this, I refused to mix with the youths because I thought they didn’t like to hang out with me. It was a big discouragement to me. I guess I was quite paranoid too.

So, I never really had the experience of serving God in church and mixing with the youths. God knew how much I wanted this so much that He sent me to this college.

God is awesome. I kind of had a mild depression for the first 3 days there. I was completely a different person. But, when I attended the college’s CF for the first time, I felt so good. So good that I feel this is home to me. I think that’s when I got my smile back.

Besides, I was elected to be one of the committee members for CF. Although it wasn’t very difficult, I took it as God’s blessing. I enjoyed every single time I had in CF with my friends. And that was also the time I started to learn guitar and play for CF.

Nilai Chinese Methodist Church was the church I had been attending when I was there. It’s a small church but, the pastors, members and youths there are amazing people. I also got the chance to serve in the Tertiary Youth Fellowship as one of the committee members.

I really liked it there as it’s my very first time getting along well with the youths. Although we’re from different colleges, they are so friendly and nice.

If it wasn’t because of Agnes, I would not have the chance to play guitar for church too. Awesome experience.

Just like what many of us agree on, it’s always the people of Kay-Tee-Tee that kept us going. For me, it’s not only the people but, Him too.

Reunion with Best Friends

2009-11-28T01:16:00.000+08:00

I just came back to Miri last Sunday and got to meet up with my besties. And also to spend time with Sherp!!! Btw, all the pics are taken from Sherp’s new SLR (Canon EOS 500D) so, they are super nice! All either taken by Ivan or Sherp.

Joa and I

The first gathering we had was at Bintang Megamall. Ivan came to my place first to teach my some photoshop skills and also on how to use an SLR. Then, Joa came to fetch us, Ivan, Sherp and I, to Bintang Megamall.

Ivan, me and Joa =)

We didn’t do much there though. We had lunch at Secret Recipe. Not as satisfying as we thought it would be. The Chicken Cordon Bleu was a big disappointment.

Eating Secret Recipe’s brownies.. Not as nice as I thought it should be…

After that, we went to Starbucks for drinks. We sat down to talk and talk. Really miss talking to them! So many things to talk about but, too little time… =(

3 of us again, at Starbucks. Very little pics of Sherp coz’ she kept taking pics of us. Tnx Sherp, muaks!

Later, we went to watch the Treasure Hunt prize giving ceremony. Lynna’s team won first. Really proud of her. =) Then, we wanted to go catch a movie but there was nothing to watch! I miss GSC and TGV. So, we went to Coffee Bean for second round of drinks again.

Ivan’s espresso. Pic taken by him but, the curves are edited by me! Muahaha…

It was great meeting my besties again. I miss them sooooo much! But, we couldn’t meet up that often coz’ Ivan is leaving Miri soon and Joa’s going Taiwan next month too. =( I’m still going to meet Joa again but, I don’t know when I’m going to meet Ivan again after this year since he wouldn’t be coming back often and I’ll be leaving for India too next year.

Well, guess that’s what Facebook, Twitter and MSN are created for!

Prom Graduation Night

2009-11-25T22:39:00.000+08:00

We just had our prom graduation night last Saturday. It was an awesome and fantastic night to remember!

Me & Christine during the rehearsal.. I was so tired!!

Everybody really took the effort to dress up nice for this event of the year. Well, I must admit that I had a difficult time finding a dress and had myself ended buying a quite expensive dress. I felt quite bad at first for buying such an expensive dress but, it’s once in a while that I could attend such event.

Full length pic of me =)

With the white rose! Don’t know why I looked different.. =( Maybe coz’ of the lipstick?

My friends and I did a musical performance. It was a blast and we all did a great job since we kind of screwed up the rehearsal. So, before performing, Christine, Hui Fen and I said a short prayer about it and it went well! I shall try get pictures from friends on the musical since I forgot to ask my housemates to take for me. =P

Suraya, me and Haziqah!

With Chai Lian, my study buddy! =P

The whole night was mostly about us taking millions of pictures! Except that I didn’t take that much since I was a little bit tired.

My housemates (Suraya, Yasmin and Joanna) + neighbour (Haziqah)!

I had loads of fun. It was really meaningful since we wouldn’t be seeing each other in a few months time. Gonna miss all my Kay-Tee-Tee friends! Gonna miss all my CF buddies very much! Honestly, I wouldn’t miss the college but, I will definitely miss all my friends.

Hui Zhi, Christine, me, Joanna and Sylvia =)

A Night to Remember

2009-11-22T03:13:00.000+08:00

I just came back from my Prom Graduation Dinner. So tired! I just managed to finish packing all my stuffs. Tomorrow morning will wake up early to pack a little bit more then I’m good to go home!

Meanwhile, this is a photo of my at the dinner.

I looked a little different because of the very red lipstick I used to match the red blood belt and shawl. My theme: red and black!

I’d gained a lot of weight. Due to certain misfortunes and laziness, I had gained weight but, I’m determined to shed it off when I’m back during the holidays.

Stay tune for more pictures of the dinner!

Headbands I love!

2009-11-21T16:44:00.000+08:00

I love wearing headbands lately. It’s like my favourite thing to wear on my head now.

I curled my hair for fun and I think curly hair looks good with headbands!

I started off wearing just a thin, plain black one. I was just to hold my fringe back. Boring but, it’s very useful when I have a bad-fringe-day. Then, I started to wear something cute like, the Hello Kitty pearl headband. Me love Hello Kitty! But, it’s not very practical coz’ it’s a little hard for me to mix & match it with my outfit.

A thin, red headband with fake red diamonds that I just bought to go with my prom dress.

I also found a ‘Blair-like’ headband. It has a neat ribbon bow at the side of the headband. Sue Ting also sold me her never-used-before big, white ribbon headband which I had used twice to my exams.

This is one powerful headband. Why? It could distract people (inside joke)!!! Muahaha…

Lately, I bought this really really cute headbands. Well, it’s the stretchable kind which you can slip it through your head and let it grip your head. It’s light and easy to use! Muahaha…

I love this~ I got it from Diva and it came with 4 different colours…

I wonder when will my headbands fever will end. But, I hope it will last long otherwise, people will call me ‘hangat-hangat tahi ayam’.

Attacked

2009-11-21T03:34:00.000+08:00

It was supposed to be free and fun after exams. But, I felt like I had an attack. Not a normal one but, a spiritual attack.

I don’t really know how one defines spiritual attack but, I suppose it must be something that happened to us and affects our faith. This could be a small matter to most people but for me, no. It definitely affected me severely that I couldn’t help thinking about it all the time. It really kept me away from focusing on God during CF.

After I finished talking on the phone, I was a total different person that even my friend could spot the difference in me. I kept denying but, I was clouds weren’t enough for me to cover my feelings.

I don’t feel good being misunderstood-ed. But, thank God for ErJie. I found her online and talked to her about it. And now, I felt better. Much better. Much, much better.

God, please grant me the peace in my heart that I would not need to worry about this thing. Amen.

I’m Back!

Hey hey!

It feels weird to resume my blogging habit after 1 month ++! Seriously, did anyone even visited my blog after I went MIA for so long? Well, the only one I know who always visit my blog is ME. Yes, it’s me. Funny coz’ every time I on my Google Chrome, the first thing I click will always be my blog. Then, Gmail, The Star online and so on.

Willy, Me and Sue Ting =)

I feel kind of free now since I won’t be sitting for any exams or even going to any classes any time soon. So free yet, I feel there are so many things for me to do! There are certain important things that I have to do but, I’m procrastinating. Help~

Sue Ting, Daniel and me with CF juniors! Noisy juniors from ‘Penang’.. Lol!

Btw, exams are awesome. Awesome not because it was easy, in fact, it wasn’t at all. But, God made it awesome to me that I felt peaceful after every exams. No matter how difficult the questions were or how many questions I know I could be wrong, I felt peaceful, knowing that God will take control all of these. It’s definitely a whole new experience to me. No matter how dangerously late I could be for finishing my syllabus and past year questions, I knew I could do it because God is my strength and He was there to guide me and teach me the things I needed to know. He helped me finished what I had to and prepared me the battle every time I enter the exam hall. Amazing God.

I thank God for awesome friends in college. They are the ones who kept me smiling all the time! (At Edwin’s place)

Now, college life is coming to an end. Time flies. It seems like it was just yesterday that I saw my seniors finished their A-Levels and going to graduation night. Little did I know, I’m the one who had finished her A-Levels and preparing for her prom-themed graduation night. Yoohoo!

I’m gonna miss the juniors…

P/s: I’m love watching Glee (influenced by the Gleeks in KTT)! And it’s turning me to become a Gleek! Muahahaha!

2009-11-16T19:28:00.003+08:00

Hi! I'm sorry to tell you, but the blogger isn't around this time, again...
So I'm here to blog on behalf of her.

You can just call me THE GUEST BLOGGER!
Haha, no no, of course not, I was just joking. Just address me as The Fedfan.

I know the name sounds a bit weird, but hmmm, it's gonna be fine, right?

Oh well, what should we talk about today?

Ha..
MUSIC!

Everyone loves music. Who doesn't? It's just a matter of perception, whether you like soft music or the loud ones.
Jazz, pop..etc.

Recently, the blogger (yes, the owner of this blog!) ordered a Sony Zappin Mp3 for me. It was an unexpected belated birthday present.

What do you think of it?

Loads of <3,
The Fedfan.

Last Semester Here…

2009-10-10T00:16:00.000+08:00

Time passed so fast that I didn’t realise that it’s my final semester here in college! And in just 2 weeks time, I will be sitting for my A2 examination. There’s so much to study and revise but, so little time!

My Physics syllabus is not done yet and the extra classes are making me so distracted that I can’t concentrate on my revision. Please, please pray for me. I really want to do well in this examination.

I got to stop going online this frequently and start to focus on my revisions. I’m sorry but, I’ll have to go missing soon! I’ll be MIA for about 1 month until November.

If possible, I’ll try get Hammer the Spammer to update this blog for me. Or maybe Wacker the Hacker? Lol!

Please, do remember me in your prayers. I really don’t want to regret this nor the UPSR event to happen again. Please pray for me for guidance, understanding, discipline and concentration as I sit for examination.

“I can do all things in Him who strengthens me.” Philippians 4:13

P/s: Seems like the girls here in college are all on diet. Why? Graduation is in just a month time and everyone wants to look good and fit into pretty dresses! That includes me. That’s why I’d been doing aerobics and a lil’ toning exercises with Jun Mei. Maybe will start joging (after so many months!) next week. =)

ATP World Tour – Proton Malaysian Open

2009-10-03T22:17:00.000+08:00

This is something that I’m really happy and excited about: Malaysian Open! Again, a BIG THANK YOU to HCFoo for the free tickets.

Since I got 2 free tickets for the quarterfinals, I asked Chai Lian to come along with me. I actually asked Christine but, she couldn’t make it. =( So, both Chai Lian and I left college around 3pm to the KTM station. Then, we changed to LRT at Bdr Tasik Selatan to Bukit Jalil station. It’s actually the same old way I used to Er Jie’s place last time. I miss going to her Vista Komanwel!

Me with the singles’ main draw board!

We reached the stadium around 4pm++ and was in time to meet up with HCFoo to collect the tickets. At that time, the match between Davydenko and Monfils had just ended and there was an autograph session going on. So, we quickly went to the Wilson booth to purchase some souvenirs and queue up. But, we didn’t make it. =(

Chai Lian and me before the match =)

But, we managed to find the VIP and Players’ lounge and we decided to just wait there for any players to come out. It was so silly but, since we had nothing to do, we just waited there and chit-chatted with the security person. After waiting for sometime, we decided to just leave for the match between Gonzalez and Youzhny.

Me with Gonzalez behind!

The match was nice but, I think it' was a little bit boring. Gonzalez played well but, there weren’t many rallies between both of them and also not many strong shots. But, maybe because we knew Gonzalez would win, that’s why.

One of his cool acts…

I almost half the match to come out to wait for autographs. Thanks to the wrong information given by the security person, there was no autograph sessions at all. I was kind of disappointed but, I soon realised my main purpose there was to watch good tennis. So, it’s didn’t really matter after all.

2 happy girls watching tennis!

At 8pm, we went to watch Verdasco’s match against Gasquet! I like both of them but, I was rooting for Verdasco. The match was very exciting and fun! Verdasco was behind 0-3 for the first set and we were all so nervous. Then, he broke Gasquet’s serve and slowly won the first set. The last game of the set was very interesting coz’ he kept getting advantage and deuce repetitiously.

Verdasco & Gasquet!

My favourite pic of the day! With Verdasco behind…

Verdasco serving…

We had to leave early because I promised Mummy that I will go back early. So, we left when they were in the middle of the second set. Before walking out to the taxi, we quickly snapped some photos with the posters. I want the posters!!!

Me want Verdasco’s gigantic poster! Me want…

No doubt this is one of the highlights of this year. It’s kind of addictive coz’ once you had watched it live, you would want to watch again just like me. After Showdown of Champions KL last year, I loved it so much that I wanted to watch tennis live again. So, what’s next? I heard there’s going to be a WTA next year. Here I come!

Lifetime Opportunity

2009-10-03T01:57:00.000+08:00

I had been very lucky lately. Actually, I won’t say lucky but, blessed. I seldom win contests especially the online contests where the most creative answers will win. Sometimes, I wouldn’t even bother to join because I know I won’t win at all.

But, there was once when I was reading some blogs and I came across Timothy Tiah’s blog. The post was about David Tao coming to Malaysia for the T Music Festival and he has some tickets to giveaway. He would give those tickets to 10 people who has the best idea of what they will do when they meet their favourite artists. So, I decided to give it a try.

My answer is very, very long so, I’ll just summarise it here. I listed some of the things that I would do if I meet the artists like asking David Tao to teach me guitar, ask the artists to post on my blog and sing a birthday song for me since my birthday was around that time. And for the first time, I won! I was so hyper-excited about it. But, I had to give up the tickets. Well, not really coz’ I sold it to my friends at a very cheap price. I just had to earn some pocket money for my holidays. I kind of regretted for not going because the seats were good and it’s a very big concert!

Me, after collecting the tickets from NuffNang office =)

But, God is so good to me that He planned another awesome thing for me! Something even better than the concert. Something that I really wanted to go to. It’s the ATP Malaysian Open!!! This time, I got the tickets free courtesy of HCFoo.com. Big THANK YOU to HCFoo!

It’s just so amazing because I was the last person to make the cut so, this means that the next person, who is Ah Wei, didn’t get the chance to go watch live. I know this may not appeal much to most people but, this was something that I wanted to go to for a long time. I even wanted to buy the tickets long ago but, Mummy didn’t allow me. But, somehow, I managed to get the tickets for free!

Me (wearing the ATP Msian Open Wilson cap) with Verdasco behind! I’m so happy~ Btw, I didn’t realise I wore the same tee in both pics! Opps.. Hehe!

Truly, it’s a lifetime opportunity because I won’t be in the country for next year’s Malaysian Open. Although I had to give up the chance to watch T Music Festival, I think going to ATP Malaysian Open was much worth it to me because I really like tennis. Who knows, if I had went to the concert, Mummy wouldn’t even allow me to go for this right?

Coming up soon, I will post about the ATP Malaysian Open! Btw, I just came back few hours ago and I had loads of fun. So, stay tune!

Wierd

2009-10-02T13:06:00.001+08:00

Please don’t mind my spelling. I’m just imitating DaJie’s spelling for the word ‘weird’. Haha!

Speaking of weird, my housemates think that I’m weird. Sometimes, especially when I’m hyperactive. But, if I’m weird, then they should really see my sisters!

Seriously, we can be very, very weird all the time. One moment scolding each other and suddenly, we ended up laughing like crazy. Of course this doesn’t happen all the time. We’re weird in various ways. And because we are weird, that’s how we are very close to each other.

This is making me miss home… I miss DaJie’s wierd theories, I miss ErJie who is now in London and I miss Lynna’s weird temper. And most importantly, I miss Daddy and Mummy!

And not forgetting, these two…

Zzz..Zzz..

2009-10-01T01:27:00.000+08:00

Don’t get me wrong! I’m just trying to portray an exhausted feeling. Yes! I’m kind of exhausted of this hectic student’s life. It’s not that I don’t like studying but, sometimes, I feel tired and I just want a break. 1 month ++ to go, Lynthia. 1 month ++!

So many things yet so little time left. Still got a lot of things for me to swallow before exams. No matter how difficult it is, I must have faith. Just like what DaJie told me: Commit your studying time to God and trust in His guidance.

I can do all things in Him who strengthens me

Hello Kitty Spotted!

2009-09-30T14:25:00.000+08:00

Not all of my friends know that I like Hello Kitty. It’s weird, I know. But, the truth is, I really like Hello Kitty and I think it’s really cute!

I don’t own a lot of Hello Kitty stuffs except some keychains and an abandoned blog. It’s really difficult to keep it alive since it’s already not an easy thing to update this blog regularly.

Btw, I’d already mentioned how I fell in love with Hello Kitty here. But, I don’t mind sharing it here again. It all started when I got the golden opportunity to go to Japan for the Lions Club Youth Exchange for a month. Before, I used to hate it. I thought it’s a very cheap icon and wondered who on earth will like such a thing. But I was wrong. At the moment I stepped into the Hello Kitty shop in Fukuoka, I was stunned. My host sister whispered to tell me that this is one of the most expensive shops there and I had to agree. For the first time of my life, I started to think that Hello Kitty is actually cute and pretty!

I know I sound so weird but, that’s the truth. I like Hello Kitty! Lol~

Btw, I spotted Hello Kitty while I was in Ning Jie’s car waiting. It was on the car in front. Guess where?!

It’s on the car’s tyre flaps! So cute. Didn’t know there would be such a person who would do so to his/her car.

I may be a Hello Kitty person but, I’m not obsessed with it. I’m more practical which means, not everything that I have must be Hello Kitty-fied. Take my new pair of crocs for example, I’d rather get a simple beach crocs than the new Hello Kitty version because I think it’s more practical to match them with my clothes.

But, somehow, I just want my friends to know, Hello Kitty is really cute!

What I did most of time…

2009-09-27T21:02:00.000+08:00

Here’s some photos on what I did most of the time during this break.

Going to the new Bintang Megamall with sisters and cousins is definitely a must everytime I come back. And this time, I bought this fake, nerdy glasses! And it’s only RM2.

So nerd!!!

With 7 kuku!

Besides going out with the besties, I also met up with my other schoolmates. We went to watch Final Destination: Rest in Pieces which I thought was illogic and disgusting! I had a great time with them coz’ I haven’t been laughing this much for a very long time! And all those talking nonsense and craps really made me miss the good old times. I miss Ming Chai’s good, and sometimes stewpig, sense of humour.

With Jia Ying, Siu Ang, Wei Huei, Sut Yung, Ellis, Ming Chai and Vivian!

I also got the chance to eat Excapade Sushi at Brunei again! This time, no diarrhea. Ning Jie drove us, three sisters, there to have an Excapade lunch. We also went junk food shopping! Some are so much cheaper than Miri.

Yummy California Rolls!

Sashimi Salmon~ My favourite!

Okonomiyaki. Not nice at all coz’ it didn’t taste like the original one I had in Japan. =(

We, cousins, also had lunch together! We had pizzas and it was just a great time chit-chatting. I really miss all those cousins’ outings. Gonna have more of this when I come back end of this year!

Mimi, Lynna, Ah Ning and me! (Ning Jie, Da Jie and Abel were there too)

So, that’s basically what I did during the whole break. I guess I’m guilty enough to say that I did not even study! Muahaha… So, this means that I will have to double the hard work when I get back to college. =( Please continue to remember me in your prayers!

My besties!

2009-09-24T21:48:00.000+08:00

There are 2 pendants hanging on the necklace around my neck. Each was from my 2 best-est friends. The cross from Michelle and the heart from Joaquina. These 2 girls had been with me since Form 1 and we had great times since then. They really taught me a lot and I thank God for blessing me these 2 great sisters!

3 of us in 2004 (I think…), at Cineplex watching the movie: I do, I do.

On Friday, I met my bestie, Michelle at Tasty Point for our last laksa lunch before she leaves for UK. Yummy! I might consider bringing my college friends there for laksa. After lunch, we went to Imperial Mall and walked for a while. We bought silver rings too which I kind of like wearing now. When I was just about to leave, my another bestie, Joa, called and asked me out to eat crabs with her for dinner. Knowing her love for crabs, I agreed.

At night, we went to Seng Kee Restaurant (near Mega Hotel) for the crabs. I don’t eat crabs coz’ I’m allergic to seafood. So, we ordered other dishes like bilin (My favourite vege!) and the restaurant’s famous tofu. I almost forgot Joa doesn’t eat vegetables and I was so surprised when she ate the bilin! I’m so proud of her coz’ she is starting to eat the food she once had to force down her throat.

Joa munching on the 1kg of yummy butter crabs!

Me love bilin!

After about an hour there, we left and went to buy Secret’s Recipe cake for Michelle. We got her the yummylicious Chocolate Indulgence. Then, we went to her place to surprise her! It didn’t take a long time for her to guess where we were as Joa’s car was right in front of her house. so, we went in for a while to chit-chat before leaving.

3 of us again at Michelle’s house…

Michelle is now in Birmingham. I’m really proud of her and hope she likes the place. I’m going to miss her loads. I don’t know when will I get to meet her since I’ll be leaving for India next year. But, no matter what, you’ll always be my best-est friend forever! May God bless you in everything you do.

A picture of Michelle when watching movie at Ning Jie’s house years back… Lol!

Lazing…

2009-09-22T08:14:00.000+08:00

I’m so lazy. This is what I love about holidays. You can always be lazy for as much as you can without feeling guilty! But, not for now.

I haven’t been studying lately. I knew this would happen coz’ I can never study when I’m back home and it’s kind of a silly thing for me to do. Why? I hardly have a break in college and I’m constantly studying 24/7 and since I have more that a week long of holidays, I rather spend it doing things with my family and friends. But… Maybe I shall study a little bit later. Lol!

Btw, I met up with Agnes just before she left for Czech on last Wednesday. Bet she’s having fun there now! What a blessed girl… I’m going to miss having her around. She’ll always be my good friend who always accompany me during the lonely weekends and also studying in CR. Hope you like the place there, girl!

Friends Forever!

Also, I dug out ErJie’s acoustic guitar. The Suzuki acoustic guitar is really good. Love the resonance and easy to strum and pluck too. Last night, I played Amazing Grace outside at the patio and Hei Gou was there. I think she likes the guitar coz’ she laid down near me and her tail was moving rhythmically. So cute! But, ErJie told me that Shoo doesn’t like guitar. =( Maybe I shall play more songs and make him like it!

Model Wanna-be

2009-09-14T23:22:00.000+08:00

Correction, plus size model. Lol! But I hope I can scrap the words ‘plus size’ ASAP.

It was the one fine night when I requested my room mate to help take photos of me dressed up in my new cardigan, tank top and some accessories that I just bought for WGTGFashion. Then, we got carried away and I ended up photoshop-ing most of the photos.

One of my first few pictures. Love my purple purse!

Since Ivan was online, I got to ask him for some advice on how to photoshop the photos. It’s hard explaining things over on MSN so, I just did some trials and errors.

With Suraya’s guitar :)

I just like holding the purse and guitar at the same time… Lol!

On the next day, I decided to put on some make-ups and wear something different: My ROMP brown shirt with Nichii black vest. We decided to expand our set and we went outside to the balcony and also outside the apartment corridor for the photo shoot. It’s so funny trying to take photos when at the apartment corridor coz’ when I was trying to pose, we heard someone walking up so we quickly dashed into the apartment until the coast in clear. Lol!

I think this outfit has a lil’ of rockish element…

One of my favs! Took this photo just right outside my door. There was always this ladder at our corridor so, I borrowed for a while :)

I’m still trying to learn how to photoshop the photos. I really want to know how to create the gothic look and also how to add fake make-up. There are loads more that I want to learn. I need someone to teach me please. :) Maybe after my A-Levels course larr… And meanwhile, I have to be disciplined and go on a diet!

Me love this! Although I held the guitar in an awkward position but, I really like it!

Hope you guys like the pictures. :) I hope there’ll be more coming!

Bored~

2009-09-14T13:45:00.000+08:00

I was bored for these past 2 nights. Lazy to study coz’ just finished trials. So, I did some things in my apartment. Some useful things…

I finally folded all my clothes and iron them. I haven’t been folding or arranging my clothes for almost a week! I just put them into my basket and left them there the whole time. I don’t know why but, I think I just don’t like folding them. Just call me messy.

Ironing my clothes! So tiring…

So, on that very Friday night, I just felt like doing it. Maybe it’s time to put a stop to this bad habit. So, I gathered my energy and arranged my clothes. Besides, I managed to iron all of clothes! Hehe… I’m so proud of myself coz’ I haven’t been doing so for a long time.

My clothes in my wardrobe with the medicines supplies too :)

So, I managed to arrange all my clothes into my wardrobe. As usual, I arranged them according to colours. It doesn’t really matter but, I like the consistency in doing so that I adopted this habit. I think it’s a good habit.

And now, seems like there is a pile of clothes for me to wash and more clothes to be arranged and folded again! Again and again and again… :(

Can’t wait to go home!

Birthday Celebration

2009-09-13T17:00:00.000+08:00

My housemates and friends planned a surprise for me a week after my exams. It was quite unexpected because I thought the cake surprise was already the surprise they planned. But, that’s not the end…

Before I start, I just want to let you all know that I got a band 8 for my IELTS exams! I’m so happy because I really wanted an 8 and I thought I did badly at the writing part. But, God is so good! He bless me a band 8 and I’m really happy about it. ;)

Ok, let’s get back to the birthday surprise. Honestly, I am traumatised. I don’t want any birthday surprises anymore, please! But, I’m really touched that my housemates and friends spent the time planning everything. I feel so guilty honestly…

Some of my friends who planned the birthday surprise!

They brought me to Alamanda blindfolded. I knew we were going there and I had even planned to shop for certain things there. But, somehow, my housemates got my blindfolded and made me walked from my apartment all the way out to the bus stop outside college. Then, I got into the van.

Outside 2-3-A2

On the way to Alamanda, my friends revealed their plan to me. And pity me, I panicked. And what’s their plan? To bring me to a blind date. I’m so, so –_-||. It wasn’t fun guessing who.

It was just my friend from college who goes to the same church. I feel sorry for him coz’ my crazy friends made him wear a singlet and boxers. And the funny thing is, he really reminded me of Kim Teck who wore the same thing during Mufti Day 2007.

Mufti Day 2007… Some kind of de javu I guess? Lol!

So, after that, we went separate ways. I went to do hair treatment since my hair is in quite a disastrous condition. Not very disastrous but, I could feel my hair was in a bad condition. Thanks to Dove, my itchy scalp and dandruff is back. Hmph! But, my hair is so much better and smells cocoa butter. Hehe…

Toilet photo shoot!

We went to watch The Ugly Truth. Well, the movie was OK but, I strongly disagree with what they say about relationships. They are portraying the wrong ways of having relationships so, little girls, don’t learn anything from this movie OK? Read more Joshua Harris’ books if you want to learn more on relationships – though I have yet to read them.

I saw this very cute Hello Kitty in the arcade! Love Kitty-chan ;)

After movie, we went to eat dinner. We had a hard time finding place to eat coz’ the restaurants were all fully booked. So, we split and I went to eat Sushi King. It was quite nice eating there after getting diarrhea twice due to sushi. But, I didn’t get that from Sushi King. Lol~

My favourite sushi! Michelle’s favourite too… ;) (My hair after the treatment)

After dinner, we went walking around for a while before proceeding back to college.

Honestly, I am very traumatised. Don’t know how many times I have to say this but, I’m happy for what my friends had done for me. I’m really touched and thank you so much!!! Muaks to all of you girls!

Btw,I’ll be celebrating next my birthday in India. Don’t know whether I should be happy or sad… Hmm…

Go Malacca Day 2 – Night Out

2009-09-12T16:43:00.000+08:00

Oh me goodness… I almost forgot I haven’t update my posts on my trip to Malacca! Ok… There are some more posts to go and this is the continuous from Day 2.

Me, Sarah and Daniel dancing Jaiho while waiting for Jun Mei..

At night, Jun Mei brought us to Jonker Walk again! This time, we went to try the best Nyonya la ksa in town. Jonker at night is really different coz’ they have all the small stalls set up and there are loads of people there too. We had fun walking and looking at the things they sell while on the way to Nyonya laksa.

And behold… The yummylicious Nyonya laksa!!!

Yum!!! Love the laksa so much!

We all love the Nyonya laksa. My first time eating it and I love it! It’s very different from our Sarawak laksa so, I couldn’t say which is better. I was told that there is no curry powder at all in the Nyonya laksa soup. Wonder how they made this awesome food…

Beautiful laksa and ice-kacang!

We also had ice-kacang! I think the best part about it was having durian in it. Love the durian flavour. Yummm… But, my favourite part of ice-kacang is the green jelly! Hehe…

The making of ice-kacang

Yum.. We ordered a few flavours like durian, chendol, ABC and some more interesting ones…

After dinner, we went walking again. Walk, walk and walk. I bought a silver chain for myself since mine broke about 2 months ago. I bought it for just RM15 after discount. Hehe… Besides, we also enjoyed the toys they had at the small stalls. The other 4 got electric shocked after playing with the made-in-China toys. I didn’t coz I ‘kena’ before by Janice so, I learned my lesson. Lol~

Walking Jonker Walk

After walking for a while, we decided to rush to the boat ride. We had to walk all the way back to the car. So tiring! We were really hoping to for the boat ride but, unfortunately, it was closed already. So, sadly, we went to eat supper.

Supper was really good! We had burger ‘maut’. It was really good. Although it was just an ordinary Ramly burger, they really made it so delicious that I thought the chicken burger was really chicken! Yummm…

Yummylicious burger ‘maut’!

And that’s all for Day 2. There’s one more post for Day 3 so, stay tune!

19

2009-09-06T22:35:00.001+08:00

I’m 19 years old. Time really does fly and it seems like yesterday I was just 17!

It’s not my first time celebrating my birthday during exams period. 1st time was when I was 12. I was sitting for UPSR at that time and my birthday happened to be on the 2nd day of the exam. Being so stubborn and lazy, I refused to study Science. So, I ended up getting a B for it. I’m the only one in my family that didn’t score straight As for UPSR and I was really disappointed at myself. I really felt stupid at that time. But, things changed better when I got to secondary school.

2nd time was when I was 15. I could still remember I was sitting for my PMR trials exams. Determined not to repeat the history again, I promised to study hard and not take my birthday as an excuse to be lazy. My 15th Birthday was really one of my most favourite. I didn’t do much on that very day. I didn’t receive a lot of presents or any surprises from friends either. But, I really felt that it was a very personal birthday celebration between God and me. It’s so difficult to explain the feelings here but, trust me, I really felt so good. Not to forget to mention, I had a great birthday breakfast with my parents on that day!

And now, on my very 19th Birthday, I had to celebrate it with Physics and Chemistry. Sad but, I did enjoy it. Although I had tough times trying to focus studies on that day, God managed to calm me down and guide me to finish the chapters. And… I got a very cute surprise from my college mates! My housemates were really sweet that they planned to surprise me at 12 midnight of September 3. I know they had a hard time planning because I kept reminding them about my birthday and telling them my birthday wishes! And I could easily see through their actions too! But, I was really touched. They gave me a black dress, a pair of earrings and a butterfly hairclip! So cute… Also, Mandy posted a parcel to me and it was a photo album containing all the secondary school pictures including my ugliest picture!

A BIG THANK YOU to all of you! THANK YOU so much for all of these. And also THANK YOU to all who text messaged and facebook-messaged me all the birthday wishes. Thank you so much and May God bless you all! Muaks!

P/s: I have yet to upload the pictures onto my laptop. Gotta grab them from my friends first. So, stay tune for pictures!

Surf’s Up!

2009-08-31T16:13:00.000+08:00

This movie has just become my favourite cartoon movie! So cute and it really enlightened my stressful day when I watched it. My room mate and I really enjoyed the movie and it really made us laugh! Lol~

Penguins are cute but, Shoo is still the cutest! Maybe they should have a movie about dogs surfing.. Haha!

Little Superhero Girl

I just got to know this really nice song ‘Little Superhero Girl’ by Corrine May. I first heard it at ACTS Church’s Unplugged and the song was sang by Ellie who has a fantastic voice.

This post is really random. I’m way behind my schedule. I’m trying to ‘swallow’ the Bio chapters as much and as fast as possible but, I really find it difficult. I hope time can just slow down a little bit for this moment. I still got other subjects to cover as well! =(

Study like crazy!

I’m very, very sleepy now. I don’t usually feel sleepy around this time but, maybe it’s because I haven’t been taking afternoon naps for the past few days. I actually feel good about it coz’ I really sleep a lot and to actually not sleep in the afternoon is a big challenge to me. Lol~

Btw, I had Secret Recipe for both my lunch and dinner today. It was really an impulsive decision to go there to eat. Luckily, I had Sarah to ‘teman’ me. I had Cordon Bleu and Greek Salad for lunch and ‘tapao-ed’ Sherperd’s pie for dinner. Ok, not just that! I also bought a slice of Oreo Cheese which tasted good. I’m not really a cake person btw.

And I’m really missing home… I really want to go home. Most of my college mates are back home for this weekend and I’m here all alone. =( I miss family, dogs, friends and everything back in Miri! Btw, I had a long phone talk with Michelle 2 nights ago. I miss her so much! I was quite troubled that night but, she called me to comfort me and we ended up talking about a lot of things. Really miss those old times when we always call each other and talk. Nostalgia!

And last part of this post, I have a friend who’s turning 19 on this coming Thursday! Although she’ll be having her exams on her birthday, I hope she’ll be thankful to God no matter what. She doesn’t hope for anything big or special even though she has been acting very weird towards her housemates. Naughty girl! Lol~ Btw, I hope she’ll have a good time and really appreciate the things in her life. An early Happy 19th Birthday to her !

Justice for Gary

2009-08-20T01:00:00.000+08:00

I first read about this news from here. I didn’t understand at first because I was lazy to read about it. But, somehow, I felt the urge to read this seriously. So, I clicked on this.

This news really gave me a big shock. This young, talented man died in one of the most shocking way. Right after completing the 22km Adidas King of the Road marathon, he collapsed and was carried away in a stretcher without basic medical checks. And the next thing that happened, he was found dead at the end of a construction waste tunnel in the stadium. Why in such a mysterious way?

I really felt sad and sympathetic to the family and friends of this young man. At the same time, I feel terrible at the management of the organisers. And after reading the timeline, I strongly feel that they should be responsible over this tragic death.

I don’t think I can do much to help but to just blog about it to make a difference. Just like what it is mentioned on the website, this is to enable the public to be more aware of the story perhaps his death was not in vain.

May justice prevail for Gary Leon Robert.

Wooohhooo!!!

2009-08-13T00:47:00.001+08:00

There’s so many things to blog about but, I really need to find the time to do so coz’ exams are coming again!

Btw, just to update you all about some things that had happened last week during my MIA mode.

I met up with family last weekend! Yay.. Miss them sooooo much! I went to KLIA to meet them to go to MV to stay for the weekends. My family came for my Da Jie’s graduation btw. So, we spent 2 whole days of shopping and spent so much of $$$. But, it’s worth it coz’ we wouldn’t be able to do this together so often. I have pictures to post but, will have to delay it coz’ I don’t have the pictures! So, please wait…
After 2 great days with family, I had to come back college. And this time, it was different because it was the day of the release of my AS results. I didn’t really feel so nervous but, I just don’t know what to feel. I just know that God is in control. And yes, praise the Lord! I got 4 straight As. I’m so relieved and glad but, I didn’t go out to celebrate. I was too sleepy that I slept after my housemates went out to celebrate. But, it was a really good nap. Lol~
And now, IELTS exam is coming! I still have the numb feeling but, sooner or later, I will definitely panic. Please pray for me.
A2 trials is around the corner! I’m wrestling to finish my syllabus. I’m still half way in Chemistry and have yet to start Biology and Physics. Please, please remember me in your prayers.

After this, you will notice less and less blog posts from me as I will be having my A2 in about a month time. But, I will try to post up something. And I can assure you all a massive update after my exams! Hehe… So, stay tune!

MIA

2009-08-02T22:55:00.001+08:00

I’ll be MIA for this week. Only this week.

I need time to reorganise my time and studies. I have not been studying on a regular basis lately and this is making me really guilty and depressed.

And I feel really distant from God. I don’t know why. Please, please pray for me. I think the existence of laptop and internet has really changed me. And I tend to rely a lot of them instead of Him. This is not good. I do not feel good at all.

I need time to reorganise all these things. Please remember me in your prayers. I have been feeling unwell but, now recovering. I really hope that by the end of this week, I will be able to readjust myself back to normal.

Oh God, please forgive me. I need you, oh Lord. I need you to guide me and lead me. I need You. I love You. Amen.

P/s: AS results is coming out real soon! I have faith in God.

Good, Better, Best?

2009-07-31T20:00:00.000+08:00

I’ve just thought of posting pictures of me since young till now and let you all decide when is the time I looked the best. I don’t think I’ve changed much though but, I still like the way I am!

1. A picture of me when I was super young! Forgot how old was I but, I don’t think I’ve changed much. Hehe…

2. Jumping from a super young of me to a 15-year-old of me! I love the chubby, pimple-less face of mine!

CNY 2005

End of Form 3

3. Then, here’s me when I was sweet 16! I kind of like my short hair here… Hehe!

Drama competition in March/April

KK Leo Forum in June

Japan in December

4. When I was 17, I looked kind of kiddy. And not to forget, I gained loads of weight that time. =( Maybe it was because of the stressful SPM…

Prefect Camp in April

LYZ’s concert during my birthday

School’s Prize Giving Ceremony in Oct/Nov

5. After high school, life started to change! I think I started to look less kiddy or maybe not…

CNY 2008

Orientation Week KTT in July (Ok.. This pic is really funny! Bad hairstyle and too ‘sepet’ eyes!)

CF Christmas Celebration in December

6. And here’s how I look like now in 2009. Although with different hairstyles, I still look the same. Please do let me know whether I should keep a fringe or bangs? I like fringe better but my housemate said I look more attractive(?) with bangs. Hmm…

Ponggal Night in February

Back to St.Co in June

Malacca trip in July (This is me with fringe and more layered hair which I love now!)

So, which do you all think is my best looking time? I think I like how I look when I was 16. Hehe… But, no matter what, we are all beautiful in God’s eyes. So, I’m thankful of how I’m made! =)

There’ll be more coming up! Still have to compare how I look like next time when I’m in India studying… Lol!

Go Malacca Day 2

2009-07-30T17:22:00.000+08:00

The very next morning, we went to eat pork soup and yam rice! It might sound ordinary but, it’s really, superbly delicious! This shop is quite famous I heard. Even Astro’s Ah Xian also came to this shop.

The name of the shop that sells the best pork soup!

Hungry people waiting for an available table!

We loving it!

Yummm~~~

The friendly boss preparing our breakfast…

After breakfast, we went to walk along Jonker Street. The weather was super hot but, it was fun walking and stopping by the shops to buy things. The whole afternoon was all about Jonker and shopping. Not much eating yet. Btw, we also visited the oldest temple in Malacca. But some say in the whole West Malaysia or probably Malaysia.

The start of Jonker Street

Super excited!

At the oldest temple here…

Somewhere behind the temple…

Admiring the door.. Lol!

We went to this shop which sells handmade shoes. I guess this is quite a famous shop coz even Director Lee Ang visited this shop. Interesting…

Cool…

Star Wars anyone? Haha…

After all the shopping, we started to chant the shopaholic’s motto: My will is strong, my wallet is closed, I don’t want to shop! Haha… Guess what? It really worked! At least on Sarah…

We even tried to ignore the ‘2nd piece RM1’ promotion!

Sarah with her ice-cream and floppy hat!

We wanted to visit some Baba Nyonya house so, we continued to walk around until we reach the 8 Heeren Street. We stopped by a model conservation project by Badan Warisan Malaysia. It’s an old Dutch-influenced house which BWM conserved as an exhibition to the public. Seeing this very interesting, we all decided to go in. There’s this old man working there. He explained every single detail about the style of the Dutch houses. It was really a good experience knowing a little bit about the architecture of the house.

A short talk about the house =)

Pretty maid with her Dutch boss ;)

Chai Lian at the cute well…

At the balcony of the house!

After that, we went to somewhere familiar. It was the house Little Nyonya was filmed! We wanted to go in to see but, it was a private museum and we have to pay RM8 per person just to go in. And no photography too! Well, we still went for it coz’ it’s an experience we all want to have.

Baba Nyonya house!

It seems like I was over-excited!

The Baba Nyonya house is super grand! It’s definitely a rich family living there last time. Btw, I only spotted 3 parts of the house that were filmed; the front part of the house, front room in the 1st episode and the ancestral room where Ju Xiang was beaten by the grandmother. And the rest was maybe filmed on set or at other houses.

After the tour around the Baba Nyonya house, we sat down to have some snacks. Jun Mei ordered ‘pai tee’!!! I’ve seen it before on TV but I didn’t know it tasted so good! We also had some nyonya kueh. Later, we walked to eat some popiah and rojak. Then, we went back to shower and rest before starting the night activities!

Lovely ‘pai tee’!

To be continued…

Go Malacca Day 1

2009-07-29T18:43:00.000+08:00

Since it was a day off on Friday because it was KTT’s Family Day, we got to leave early. There were 5 of us; Daniel, Chai Lian, Sarah, Jun Mei and me! Jun Mei was our tour guide. And the 4 of us, the Sarawakian tourists! Lol~

We took the KTM from Nilai to Seremban. When arrived, we walked to Terminal 1 where we managed to grab the last few tickets for the earliest bus at 10.30am. The whole journey took us about 1 1/2 hour. It was quite a short trip compared to the trips I made to Bintulu, Sibu, Sarikei and what more to say Kuching!

In Kei Shing’s car

When arrived, Kei Shing came to fetch us to Dream Box, Dataran Pahlawan Mall for some karaoke session. It was my first time going out for karaoke and it was really fun. We sang loads of songs. From English to Chinese and Malay. Yes, I manage to sing Chinese songs without pinyin. Thanks to Kei Shing who mumbled the lyrics to me when I was trying to sing the songs. After almost 3 hours of singing, we stayed for a while to sing some random songs even though we couldn’t play the songs. We even tried beat box!

Me love singing!

Sing sing sing…

Singing again…

After having enough fun singing, we left the place. We went to Dataran Pahlawan to snap some nice pictures. I love the grass there although it might not be as clean as it seems. We also went to A Famosa but, didn’t go up the hill.

Contestants of KTT’s Next Top Model

The winners… Haha!

A Famosa!

Sarawakian tourists!

With the cannon…

Random pose at a random part of A Famosa!

After visiting the place, Kei Shing drove us to the Portuguese ‘kampung’. I remember the taxi driver drove my family and I to that exact same area 8 years ago which means when I was 10. Nostalgia… Btw, we stopped by and took some sea view pictures. I miss the sea so much coz’ it reminds me of home.

Cannon again!

I love this pic! =)

At night, we went to eat satay celup for dinner. I love satay celup so much!!! Good food to eat with family and friends but, not for romantic candlelight dinner la. Lol~ Chai Lian and Sarah took so many sticks especially the mushrooms sticks that we couldn’t finish all of them. My favourite satay celup is the ‘you cha kueh’ (that’s what I call but, I don’t know the actual name..) coz’ it taste really nice!

Satay celup!!!!

Yummmm…. Camel!

I want satay celup again!

Eat eat eat…

After dinner, we went to a cafe bar to have some drinks. I ordered Rum Punch which tasted just like a tropical orange juice. Haha~ Chai Lian and Sarah ordered something that tasted like milo but it was baileys. Sorry… My first time drinking cocktails. =) We wanted to listen to this guy who sings in the cafe but he wasn’t there. So, Jun Mei was kind of disappointed. After the drinks, we went supper again. I had chee cheong fun which was quite nice. Then, we went back to sleep!

Me at the cafe bar!

Sick & Annoyed

2009-07-27T13:40:00.000+08:00

I’m not feeling well at the moment. Hope I’ll recover real soon. It’s quite annoying to be sick at this time. Haiks…

Btw, I’m not in a really good mood. It really annoys me when people are not doing the responsibility that they should do. It should not be my business but, I really can’t help it. I really pity the girl who always have to be the ‘evil’ person to ask the people. When they did not do things they are responsible of, the girl always ended up doing their parts. And worst thing is, they rarely notice the girl’s actions. Haiks.. Pity that little girl. I can’t even help her.

Today’s going to be quite a busy day. Please remember me in your prayers. =)

Testing 1,2,3 again…

2009-07-25T23:14:00.000+08:00

I have to test the Windows Live Writer again. Previously, I tried uploading pictures but, there always seems to be an error that prevented me from doing so.

So, I’m here again to try! God, please let this be OK…

Update: It works! A BIG THANK YOU to James!!! May God bless you =)

Sneak Peak of Go Malacca!

2009-07-23T00:04:00.006+08:00

Since I haven't collected all the pictures of my friends and I when we were in Malacca, here are 2 of the pictures we took! Just appetizers lar.. Lol~

Stay tune!!!

Go Malacca!

2009-07-20T14:23:00.003+08:00

I just came back from Malacca this morning. Yes! Just came back on Monday morning. Long story...

Btw, this is my very 1st vacation with college friends in West Malaysia. So fun and ate a lot of good food! I'm going to blog more and post up more pictures here so, stay tune!

P/s: I need to restructure my studies and revision and set up a new schedule for myself! Haiks.. Normal college life......

Testing 1, 2, 3…

2009-07-15T00:10:00.001+08:00

Hey hey! I just downloaded Windows Live Writer, recommended by Oanna, my roommate. So, I’m just trying this out. This is really interesting and I can’t wait to explore more!

Btw, this is just a short post coz’ I’m still having exams! Please remember me in your prayers. =)

Mid Sem 3

2009-07-14T13:02:00.002+08:00

I'm currently having my Mid Semester 3 exams. And guess what? My exams are at night time. Why? Because the lecturers are rushing to finish the syllabus while they want us to sit for exams. -_-||

But, I don't mind anyways. It's a good practice.

But, one thing that really annoys me is the invigilators (lecturers la..) of the examinations. I had to sit in front last night. And when we started to do the papers, the invigilators started to talk so loudly! Even worse, some were even flirting with one another. So irritating coz' I was trying to do my paper which was difficult with some annoying background voices.

How can they expect us to score so well when they are actually distracting us?

Dr. DaJie

2009-07-11T16:11:00.003+08:00

I'm really happy and proud of my sister, DaJie. Btw, DaJie is not her name la.. Haha! She has just officially become a doctor! Knowing that she has graduated really makes me proud of her. Time flies so fast!

The thought of me graduating has yet to surface to my mind. I still have so many years to go! And just like what ErJie had mentioned in her latest blog post, I will be facing the same situation. By the time I start my first year, my friend, Ellis, will be doing his 3rd year. And by the time I start my 3rd year, most of my friends would be graduating and starting to work.

But, honestly, I don't really mind about that. Different people study different things which require different lengths of time. But, what I'm really curious about now is how I will become in the next few years. Hmm...

The Wokia Family

2009-07-08T12:32:00.004+08:00

Ladies and Gents, let me introduce to you....

The Wokia Family!!!

Presenting....

Don't you think this Wokia Family is so cute and adorable? Hehe...

If I Become A Memory

2009-07-07T15:48:00.007+08:00

It was quite a while since I started to listen to Tank Lu's latest album, The 3rd Round. Not sure why it's named so but, I guess most probably it's because this is his 3rd album. And it didn't take long for me to identify my most favourite song; 如果我变成回忆 (Ru Guo Wo Bian Cheng Hui Yi) which means if I become a memory.

I felt different about the title of the song. I don't know why but, I was wondering why would a song has this kind of title. If I become a memory.. Sounds very deep to me. But, I ignored my thoughts and continued to enjoy the song rather than the meaning of it because I couldn't understand the Chinese words in the song. I'm 'Chinese-buta'.

Then, last night, on my way back in the bus to college, I was talking to my classmates. They asked me to sing a song, so I sang this song. They were super excited coz' it's their favourite song too. And they started to tell me the meaning of the song.

The singer, Tank Lu, underwent a heart surgery. He has severe arrythmia, a genetic heart disease where the heart beats irregularly. (Info taken from here.) And according to my friend, he was at the verge of death. But, he managed to survive, obviously. So, this song, as what I was told, is about his feelings during that time. Now, I finally understand why it was named so. This is such a nice song. It really touched my heart when my friend explained every meaning of the verse to me.

Here's a video of the song:

Hope you guys enjoy the song! Btw, there are some other songs like 阿门 (Amen) which I really like. Do give it a try!

15 and More To Go!

2009-07-06T13:40:00.003+08:00

Federer had just won his 15th Grand Slam title last Sunday! I am so excited and relieved that he won Wimbledon. No regrets for staying up late on Sunday night at 1.30am to watch the championship match at all.

Image from rogerfederer.com

I was so nervous when Federer was playing his 5th set. Was so worried that Roddick would break his serves but, he managed to keep the match going until 16-14. I honestly think that Federer didn't play his best. I still prefer his Australian Open 09' finals this year with Nadal although he didn't win.

I can't wait to see him win more! Btw, I can't wait for Malaysian Open coz' I really enjoy watching live matches just like last year's Showdown of KL. I really hope I can go watch! Gonna drag my tennis friends here in college to watch with me. Muahahaha!!!

Tennis in BBST

2009-07-05T00:14:00.005+08:00

I finally get to play tennis here in Sepang after just 1 year of staying here. I actually had my tennis rackets with me since last year but, the ones who can play didn't have theirs. So, we had to postpone our tennis plans until 2 weeks ago.

I managed to drag Christine with me coz' otherwise, I would be the only girl there. The tennis courts are located just about 5 mins drive from my college. There are 2 courts there. Surprisingly, there are quite a lot of people who come to play there. Seems like tennis is quite popular here too. Haha..

Me serving!

Christine, the super squash player..

I felt so good to be able to play again after months of MIA in tennis. Christine and I played doubles with 2 girls during our first time playing there. It really reminded me of the old times when I played doubles for competitions. I really miss those times!!!

Christine doing the 'Sharon's Pose'.. Lol~

Me love tennis!

Nostalgia...

With the guys...

Back to College

2009-07-03T13:47:00.003+08:00

Holidays are over and now, it's back to college time again. And again, I do not sound excited at all. Btw, who would when life in college is all about studying and exams? But, being back in college is not that bad. At least I get to hang out with my college friends here and meet the new juniors who are coming next week. Life's just got to go on!

I got myself back to college 2 weeks ago and got my apartment a small makeover. Well, we just added an extra table so, we can cook and boil water there. Plus, we got our tap water fixed and installed our washing machine. This means no more washing clothes using hands! I'm very satisfied.

Classes are as usual except that we had some of our initial lecturers changed. Well, we got better lecturers this time coz' we're seniors now and will be sitting for A2 soon. Really hope I can cope well with my studies!!!

Btw, there are some things that I am super excited for! Initially, my friend and I were supposed to go to Perak for the TYF camp. But, I realised it is going to be on Monday and my college has classes on Monday. So, we had to cancel the plan. So, now, we are planning for a Melaka trip! Btw, I can't wait for August too! I'm not going to elaborate about it. Just wait and see! Hehe..

The Road Not Taken

2009-06-24T18:26:00.000+08:00

I actually typed this post in the notebook last year but, it was incomplete. It was just lately that I opened the file again and finished it. You guys can read it if you want. It's just something I had gone through last year.

It has been almost a year....

Double Star-ing

2009-06-22T10:00:00.000+08:00

It was kind of a random meet. Since Lynna was going to her Science tuition on Wednesday, ErJie decided to meet up with her friends after sending Lynna. Then, I decided to 'tumpang' the plan. So, I asked Joa and Audrey out for dinner at Double Star. It was a very simple meet. We talked about loads of things and craps... Haha!

With Audrey!

After dinner, we went to Dessert. We were walking towards Audrey's car when we saw the small vending machines! The ones where you put in 20 cents or 50 cents and twist the knob to get the eggs. I remember Joa and I always play that every week at Physics tuition. We put in a few 20 cents. That particular vending machine was a little rusty so, we had trouble twisting the knob. We got a few Beijing Olympic rings and a keychain. So cute!

Joa & I 'pok' eggs!

With Audrey!

Our Beijing Olympic rings & keychain...

We had a short talk at Dessert before Audrey sent us to Xquisine where ErJie was eating at. Then suddenly, Audrey was so random that she wanted to go 'kai-kai'. So, we went to Parkson to buy my nail polish remover. Then, headed back home.

P/s: Most of these pics here are taken from Joa's blog. Tnx Joa!

Reminiscing...

2009-06-19T20:32:00.000+08:00

I must admit that I have been reminiscing the old times lately. First, the high school pictures on facebook. Then, my experience as a runway model. I really miss my high school moments. I just went to my beloved high school, St. Co for their St. Columba Day.

School's band performing...

I noticed my face on this banner when snapping pics using my dSLR!

Thinking back, I only attended St. Columba Day for a few times only. Maybe only twice. Unlike Lynna, I dislike attending these kind of activities. No idea why but maybe because I'm just too lazy.

Super hot day~

But, on that very special day, the school organised a food fair/fun fair/exhibition. A 3-in-1 event! The day was really hot. I was a little bit annoyed but, later had fun meeting old friends and teacher. I arrived there quite early and the St. Columba Day celebration ceremony was still on. Loads of students especially the primary school students were there.

Ah Ning selling food for Leo Club!

I was alone for the 1st hour. So, I had Ah Ning and Mimi to accompany me. There weren't much things on sale. Only 4-5 stalls were selling food. The rest were selling souvenirs and games. I even went to see the exhibition with Mimi but, when we were about to explore the place, we heard the students alerting each other that the Principal and guests were heading towards there. So, we quickly 'cabut'.

Ah Ning & Abel

Mimi & I at the exhibition!

Then, Joa arrived. I had to walk to find her car coz' she needs my help to check her parking. Lol~ After that, we went to sit at the canteen. A few old friends like Daniel Tan and Arif came to chat. Daniel is so big and tall now! I miss him being short and chubby. So cute! We did some catch-ups and talked about the things happening in school now. A boy from Lynna's batch named Bobby also joined in to talk.

My french fries friend!

Not long later, Ho came and I challenged him to play the basketball game. While playing, Jin Kiat and Jeremy came. So nice to meet them. Later, Audrey, Chyi Chuan and Marcus came! We walked around the hall and chit-chatted for a while before going to the exhibition again. Since Joa had to leave for badminton and I was almost dehydrated because of the super hot weather, we went back.

Old friends: Ho, Chyi Chuan, Joyce, Joa and Daren!

I spotted this when at exhibition!

Health Quiz 2006

I really miss high school. Though there were some ups and downs, I really thank God for sending me to St. Co. It's the place where I met all my cute and loving friends. It's the place where I really grew up becoming a more mature and experienced person. And it's a place where I will never forget!

Once A Runway Model

2009-06-18T14:07:00.000+08:00

I have always been telling my friends that I was once a model. A catwalk model. Or better known as a runway model! And they weren't very convinced by my story. =(

So, I was kind of crazy about how I looked when I was young coz' I think my toddler pics look really cute so, I went to dig out some old photo albums and found these!

I was just 4 yrs old!

Hahaha!! My outfit was really cute!

I love my pose!

Cute right?! Hehe... I was one of the kids model for Parkson and yes, I know it's hard to believe! But, yes! I was a model! Woohoo!

Random Updates!

2009-06-17T11:59:00.000+08:00

I really love holidays. Wonder why college didn't schedule a longer period of time for our holidays. 1 week is not enough for us who studied 24-7 for 2 months straight!

The first few days back at home was really nice though I didn't get enough sleep. I slept late at night and woke up very early for 2 days straight. 1st day was to meet Joa and Greg for breakfast at Yakin. Joa and I shared a plate of wet kueh tiau and we also ordered some dim sum. Then, we went to watch Ho's basketball match. I thought it was a big match but it turned up to be a mini match only. But, it was nice to watch especially Ho who wore 'leggings'! Haha~ After the match, we went to eat lunch at Yakin too. But we didn't go to the same cafe. Instead, we went to the Shabu-Shabu shop. Again, Joa and I shared lunch coz was still full. Forgot what we had but it was something like sweet & sour fish. Later, I went to Boulevard to meet Daddy and ErJie. I found out that they were planning to buy a laser printer. After the whole day analysing the printers, Daddy finally made up his decision to buy Oki printer. Good choice and good price. Just RM799 only!

On the next day, I woke up early to go church. After church, went back home to online till around 2pm, went to get ready to go to Grand Palace for the SUPP's JPA Sharing Session. I didn't prepare much because I really didn't know what to prepare. But, I did prepare a set of photos of college with useful captions to show to the new students. Only a few seniors turned up actually; Me, QiYing, Boon Tong and another 2 from INTI. We had to go up to the stage and sit to have a Q&A session. Though they didn't really ask much, I still gave as much info as I can on college. I know how the students feel coz' I was once clueless about this college and was so worried about it. So, I really hope they found the things they need through the sharing session.

The seniors sharing their experiences...

As for Monday and Tuesday, I didn't much. I was lazing at home, online and watching TV. And btw, I had just uploaded 100+ pics on facebook. All are pictures from high school (2005-2007). Jan Jan and I were remisnicing the old times we had in school. I think the most memorable times we had was in Form 3. Although it was our PMR year, things seems to be so good for us. And guess what?! Form 3 is 4 years ago! And now, my youngest sister, Lynna is in Form 3 studying in the same old classroom I studied in 4 years ago. Aih.. Nostaligia~

Bio Lab 06'!!! I miss our group of 4 girls and just 1 guy...

Old memories...

Pic taken from Marvin's FB...

Lastly, a random pic which I thought is soooo cute!!!

The lil' cute baby is me! Lynna commented that I looked like a giant baby! Lol~

WebCam Craze

2009-06-14T12:37:00.000+08:00

Alright! I shall not write so much and post loads of my webcam pictures here. Btw, this craze actually started when I was just too bored of studying and ended up snapping loads of pictures with housemates & neighbours. Haha~

Let me start with some pictures of me!!!

Moving on to pictures of me & the rest of crazy 2-3-A2!

Not forgetting my beloved neighbours, Agnes & Evon.

Total of 30 pictures excluding the gif pictures. Webcams can be really nice somtimes coz it makes us look real good! And btw, I love Agnes' webcam!!!

Goodbye and Farewell

2009-06-12T20:56:00.001+08:00

First of all, I would love to bid farewell to.... AS!!! AS is finally over and now it's holiday time for me! I really love holidays coz' I was quite homesick few weeks ago during exams. Was just hoping to go home and relax and watch TV but now, here I am! Back home, enjoying life to the fullest!

Besides that, I would like to thank all my 1 year buddies from college especially Agnes, Adeline, Li Yan and Evon! They are some of my closest friends in college. I have been staying at the slot where only 3 apartments were of 1& 1/2 years students and the rest are all 1 year students. No doubt most of my weekends this year were spent with them coz my housemates usually go home during that time. Though it was only this year that I started to hang out with them, I really treasure the time I had with them. I used to always cook dinner with Agnes and Adeline, get Li Yan to teach me how to play guitar and ask Evon to teach me how to solve the Rubiks cube. Not forgetting, always studying at the classrooms with them. And now that they are leaving, I really feel so sad. I kept thinking how lonely I would be after they left...

Me & some of my 1 yr friends!

To Agnes, Adeline, Li Yan, Evon and all my 1 yr friends of Tangga 2,
Thank you so much for taking care of me all this while! I really appreciate our friendship and treasure the time we had together. I really love spending time with all of you. You guys are the closest group of friends I have in KTT and no doubt I will be lonely after this. But, don't worry! I will be fine. Thank you so much to Agnes, Adeline and Li Yan for taking care of me when I sprained my ankle and couldn't really walk. Thank you to Agnes for accompanying me all the time when I'm bored and lonely. Thank you to Adeline for encouraging me when I feel down. You are like an angel sent by God because everytime I wanted to avoid prayer meetings, you will always be there to encourage me to go and I did not regret going after that! Thank you to Li Yan for being a great friend and sister in Christ! Though you are always there annoying me, you are still a great friend. And to the rest, thank you so much for everything you have done for me! All the best in the next chapter of your life and May God bless you all!

I'm so gonna miss Agnes!

Oanna, Agnes and me...

My boss, 师母 Adeline!

Sistah Li Yan!!!

Also 师母 Evon!

P/s: Don't forget to sponsor me to Czech (I got the spelling right this time yah?) and Poland! Haha.. Or maybe just bring me around the place if I visit you guys there.. It's just IF I suddenly turn rich and decided to go! Haha.. Jk!

Day Off to Alamanda

2009-06-05T18:15:00.000+08:00

Again, I wanted to publish this post last Friday but, due to bad internet connection, I failed. So, here it is!

After my practical exams last week, my friends and I went to Alamanda, Putrajaya for movie and shopping. It was really a tiring day coz' I slept late the night before and went out to send my housemate to the train station straight after I woke up. Then, we went to eat at INTI, one of my favourite place to eat! We had bak kut teh which was so yummy!

Yummylicious!

Alamanda, Putrajaya!

After breakfast, we drove to Alamanda. The place is quite nice. Maybe a lil' bigger than Bintang Megamall. There's loads of places to eat. Too bad I didn't explore the food place coz' was rushing for the movie. We got children tickets for Night At The Museum 2. Super funny and cute movie though it's a little weird. My favourite character, the villain, Kahmunrah. Haha!

Kahmunrah!!!

After movie, Sue Ting, Queenie and I went shopping. Bought a few things. We even went to try some really cute dresses! I found one dress which I really liked. It's a nurse-like dress. Quite Blair-like too.. But, didn't buy it coz' couldn't find myself a reason to get it. Btw, it's just RM89.90!

Me like this dress!

Charlie Angels wannabes ;)

Right after Alamanda, I rushed back to shower and pack to go church for P&W practice. Was so tired and exhausted but couldn't sleep early coz' had to practise. But, I had loads of fun during that weekend. And as this week is ending, I realised time flies! In just a few days time, I will be finishing my AS Level papers! Can't wait for that. And also, I'll be a senior soon in few weeks time when new juniors come.

Studying at the students' lounge... Bored!

Thursday, Thursday... Come fast! ;)

Me & Exams

2009-05-25T11:32:00.000+08:00

I couldn't publish this post last week. So, decided to try again. Note that this post is actually dated on last Monday.

Hey hey! I just realised that Hammer just spammed my account again. Haha! It's alright coz' my blog seriously need to be updated.

I'm currently sitting for my AS Level Exam. Having 2 papers this week; Physics and Chemistry practicals. I really hope the questions will not be so difficult! I'm feeling very uncomfortable now. Don't know why. Maybe because I didn't get a good sleep last night coz' I borrowed my room mate's mattress and put it under mine so, it'll be softer. But, it didn't seem to help. =( Nevermind about that. What I really need to do after this is to collect my lunch, clean up and go to one of the empty classrooms and study. I really need to do so coz' I haven't been studying as I should during the last weekend. Please keep me in your prayers.

Alright! Gotta stop here now coz' the place I'm at is super noisy with inconsiderate people and it's really annoying me. Please continue to drop by for more updates from Hammer! I shall return completely to this blog of mine after my exams in June. If there's any wireless connection, I'll try to update short posts about my progress here.
So, take care and God bless!

New flaps

2009-05-24T16:21:00.000+08:00

Sorry, I cannot resist writing here again. Yes, this is Hammer the Spammer here to spark up Miss Lynthia's blog.

Today, I present you a never-seen-before photo..

Oh yes, this is an old photo dug out just recently. I, Hammer, never really liked pets until Shoo and Hei came into my life. Well, most pet enthusiasts would be very concerned about their pets. Cat owners usually have door flaps installed at their kitchen or entrance door to allow their cats the freedom to enter or exit the house anytime they wish. However, do you realise the potential of other cats entering through the door flaps? The potential "visitors" may finish up the food you have prepared for your own cat, leaving your poor kitty to misery and starvation.

That is why I would like to introduce PetPorte SmartFlap, an innovative product which enables you to monitor and ensure that only your cat can enter through the flap. This unique product is battery powered and fits in most existing circular hole on the door. It allows only cats with the specially designated microchip ID to enter through the flap. Isn't this a brilliant way to keep other cats off your beloved pet's territory?

Now, with a special offer price, you get also an 18-month warranty with it. If still in doubt, the 40-day risk free trial is what you should grab. Have more peace at home today.

Toast to the hosts

2009-05-24T16:12:00.000+08:00

Hi there, people! This is Hammer the Spammer once again. While Miss Lynthia is toiling away with her AS papers (I hear it is Cambridge, not London Board that she is taking...), I would just want to ensure you that she is doing fine. She would definitely come back to the blogosphere soon, that is, after she finishes her papers in June.

Speaking of blogging, you may be interested in expanding your blog to newer horizons. Yes, I am talking about webhosting. It is always a good thing to have your own website hosted instead of relying on a free-to-host site. Web hosting means a whole lot for many out there. For those who are venturing into business, a website which is hosted by a trusted and reliable host draws more traffic and trust.

Trust me, web hosting issues is not only for those who are into business. Every Tom, Dick and Harry nowadays have the capacity and affordability to get their websites hosted as well. You may be an avid blogger, photographer or just freelance journalist. Whatever cause you are in for, web hosting is universal and common to all. Find out more about web hosting news and various other topics to keep yourselves abreast to the latest in the world wide web.

What I'm doing...

2009-04-30T10:50:00.000+08:00

Wake up, class, study, eat, talk, study again and sleep. That's practically what I always do nowadays as AS exams is around the corner.

Well, I just want to update this blog once a while to keep all of you updated. Recently, I was sick. But, I'm feeling much better. And now, I just really want to concentrate more on my revisions. Really hope I can finish them in time.

Another thing... I didn't know there was such thing as swine flu when my room mate mentioned about it. So, on the next day, I went to the library to read the news about it. Again... Another epidemic! So, we must really take care of ourselves well.

Recently, a friend in college of mind is diagnosed with a malignant tumour. I'm not very close to him but, he had told me about it before. Thinking of this right now, it really reminds me of how fragile a life could be. Anything could just happen at anytime. But, no matter what, we should appreciate life and live life to the fullest without regrets. God is in control of everything. Btw, he had the tumour removed last Monday and now is recovering. Please pray for him for a speedy recovery as he will have to sit for the AS exams in less than 2 weeks time.

Speaking of anything could just happen at anytime... I heard that one of my seniors got a +ve result for HepB and he couldn't continue his course and fly to India. What a sudden news! What if this suddenly happen to us? All of our dreams to be a doctor/dentist will no longer be true to us. We won't be able to even do or study something we want. Life is just so unfair sometimes. *Gosh.. I can hear someone talking loudly even I'm having my earphones on* But, I believe no matter what happens, it's all part of God's plan. Like what I had just read from a forwarded email from DaJie:

It is easy to get discouraged when things are going bad.
But we shouldn't lose heart, because God is at work in our lives,
even in the midst of pain and suffering.
For all the negative things we have to say to ourselves,
God has a positive answer.

Always have faith! Whenever a door closes in your life, God will open another door for you. Definitely a better door. =)

P/s: I tried song leading in praise and worship last night in CF! I so nervous but, I'm really happy I tried. Now, I won't be scared to do it anymore.. But, I got to practise singing so I won't go out of tune.. Haha! And I would really love to play guitar again for praise and worship.

Back in College again...

2009-04-23T09:59:00.000+08:00

Yes, yes... I'm back in college again. =( And yes, I don't sound excited.

Back to college means away from family, away from holidays, away from comfortable home and back to the stressful life of a student. And not forgetting the most important thing, back to college this time means AS Level Examination. Help~

OK.. Let's talk about my Pre-AS. I got most of my results back. I did quite bad in Chem but, I kind of expected it because I did loads of careless mistakes in Paper 1. And I felt so terrible about it. But, I know I shouldn't keep feeling the same way and I must learn from my mistakes. I will not repeat my mistakes in the real AS. Physics was just average. I didn't do well in my Paper 2. Again, I realised I did quite bad at the questions involving graph. So, gonna work on that. I got an A for Maths! I'm really happy about that and I'm going to keep it going that way. And as for Bio, my lecturer haven't given me all the papers yet but, I hope it'll be good.

AS is around the corner! In just about 3 weeks time, I'll be sitting for my 1st paper. AS will last for a bout 1 month. And I can't wait to finish it! But, at the meantime... I really need to do revisions. Please pray for me so I can be disciplined and concentrate on my revisions. I don't want to disappoint my parents.

Alright. I guess I better stop writing now. I have been on the computer for almost an hour! Better stop and get back to Maths. Btw, I'm having sore throat but, now recovering. Hopefully can recover ASAP. Everybody is falling sick lately.. So, better build up strong a body immunisation! =)
