LIVE FROM KMK!! =P

Hello everybody, very sorry for not blogging for awhile....cool...finally there's one computer that can log onto Blogspot in KMK (Kolej Matrikulasi Kedah) hehe...i'm in the Computer Lab....=) Apparently, they block all entries to blogspot, myspace, msn and all the normal glamorous websites we go to!!!....>.< but there's a good thing here regarding the Internet (FREE INTERNET) even in their cyber cafes.

Life here is great....contrary to the 'popular' belief that it sucks....Facilities wise..it's brilliant!!Had my first try at squash here...they have squash courts, tennis courts etc. and you know what, they even loan the sports equipments to you at NO COST! and mind you, Wilson racquets etc...and oh yes, bicycles...but i can't cycle...too bad...hah hah....alright I'm keeping this short...i will blog more when i return home this weekend!! CIAO~~ =D

Updates.

Just an update here...I have got a place in the local Malaysian Matriculation programme...to Kedah Matriculation College, in Changloon.....Many would say this is pretty useless programme...no value at all....yep, i agree with you on that....but would like to share my point of view here....

Right from before, I didn't want to go to the Matrics...i totally despised it like how I used to despise Form 6 (still do though..) I had a cousin who completed Matrics and subsequently got into USM...and recently graduated already.....so it's natural for my family members and uncles aunties to talk me into going to Matrics...but that wasn't the thing that changed my mind.

I was thinking all this while that perhaps if i do STPM i will stand a better chance of securing an overseas scholarship later on.....compared to Matrics....but realistically...to score a cgpa of 4.0 in STPM is not an easy task.....and Matrics definitely proves to be a better option...

From another perspective, i believe most STPM students will end up in public universities also because majority won't be able to score the perfect score....and on the other hand Matrics students are reportedly guaranteed a place in the public universities already prior to completion of the programme...and if the student is able to maintain a cgpa of 4.0....he or she is able to choose the course and university he or she favours.....

And....STPM takes 1.5 years which after completion another half a year will be wasted waiting for the results.....whereas Matrics offers a 1 year programme....and to according to my preliminary calculations, it will only take 9-10 months......Another good thing about it is that it goes by semesters....and not like STPM where you cram two years worth of knowledge into one particular exam....It's not to say i'm not up to the challenge...but rather....I do not want to put myself in unneccessary pressure if i have a choice, which right now i do....

I plan to continue taking STPM tuitions....where I keep up to the STPM level of education...while sitting for the Matrics paper....this is the best thing i can do to make up for all the shortcomings in the quality/level of education provided in Matrics....just hopefully things will be smooth-sailing...I still plant a hope (a dying hope maybe) to get JPA.....but for now....this is my best choice, best bet.....and I guess im satisfied with it.....I believe with more effort, i will be able to keep up to the STPM standards.....

Imagine when you attend a tuition where everybody seemed like they are in a pressure cooker....you are just breezing through trying to gain as much knowledge as possible without worrying about STPM.....i guess it would just be great....

and...as I have always confessed....I really HATE Sejarah.....so Matrics once again proves to be a better choice because there are only three subjects to be taken, two sciences (either Phy or Bio stream) and Maths....NO Pengajian Am!!! WOohoo....Byebye to Perundangan, Kehakiman etc. heh heh.....

But....for the beginning.....it also means i won't have my laptop with me to Kedah....until everything settles down and after I have confirmed studying there.....I will definitely be deprived of the Internet!!!arghhhhh....

I have got to sign out now....i'm still going to school tomorrow....would like to spend my last few days in my school of five years....and with friends whom i have known for over a decade.....oh..not to be forgotten...teachers.....many of whom treat me like their friend....=)....by the way, I'm not going to withdraw from the school yet...I'm giving myself two weeks to try out in Matrics....so I will give a firm decision only after the school holidays (yay...school holidays bless me from being absent in school for two weeks!!) =D

Red.Annoying.Patches. (RAP)


If any one of you happened to bump into me anywhere....even in school....will immediately notice the new 'guest', RAP!!!....where did RAP affect?? my FACE!!!!chest, back, hands....isk....

Waited for a good two hours to consult the famous skin specialist in Penang, Dr. Lim Huat Bee....and it wasn't for even five minutes of consultation......*faints*.....and according to him....this is drug allergy....and haha...joke of the day...as I explained to him about my condition he asked me "Are you a nurse??or a medical student??" *double faints*

Everybody thought it was an allergic reaction probably from dusts....because i was tested positive for that...and i have a highly elevated allergy antibodies in relative to my age (25 times higher than normal people)....

But, it turned out to be a drug allergy.....means I'm allergic to drugs belonging to the Penicillin family.....i had a 1-week antibiotic (Amoxicillin) course about two weeks ago for my ear infection...i don't normally take that particular antibiotic for any other reason because apparently it's too mild....and right after that, barely a day or two after i completed the course...RAP paid me a visit already....but little did i know it would spread to my ears (pinna), neck, FACE!! and everywhere else......so depressing....my self-esteem is at its low point now.....with RAP's face!!! =((

Removed.

The previous post has been removed because JPA results were out on the 11th (it's my bad..so i thought i should just remove it)...it was a sudden decision by them...because they only posted on their website about the release date...somewhere on the 10th May afternoon....before that, they e-mailed someone and stated that it's going to be released only on the 15th....

so hmm...nope...as i expected....i once again see the word "Maaf"....numbed already....so that's it..have to keep this short....because i have to attend school tomorrow, after some half year break.....it's time to work again!!...=)....will update soon!

T00-OOOmato Ears...

yeah...you read right....it's TOMATO EARS.....and that refers directly to my ears. I have no idea how or why it happened....two weeks back...i had this sort of itch over on my pinna....so obviously i succumbed to the itchiness and scratched obliviously....

I thought that probably it was just an allergic reaction which is usually a one-time thing....but little did i know..the itchiness led to an infection....and now...my left ear apparently has pus inside....yikes....and to rule out allergic reaction...i have been taking antihistamine (XYZal) and antileukotrine (singulair) quite regularly for other purposes......and the redness of my ears didn't subside..

So, one week of antibiotic....anti-inflammatory....ear drops....hopefully it will get well....i don't want to go to another doctor again and be put on another course of antibiotics....it always happened that way.....*sobs*

Yummy....tuitty fruitty...yippiee!!XD

Actually...there are many things running across my mind now...but because of the limitation of time (I promised to do my mom a favour...so I'm stealing a bit of time since she's not around *ahems* bad i noe!)....i decided i shall post about my long-time obsession.....Don't know if I should label it as OBSSESSION...but dear close friends...should know...i am crazy over fruits...for no apparent reason...

I'm NOT obssessed over health (oh yes, everybody knows!)....no...I'm not an anorexic..so there's no need for me to substitute my meals with fruits.....and NOOO....I'm not someone who's extremely conscious with her weight....I eat like nobody's business most of the time....HAH HAH...

So...how everything started???No idea....but i really love eating fruits...i don't know why....and mind you, i don't take 2 bananas, 2 apples and 1 orange as my lunch....its POST-lunch...hah hah...right after my main meals (usually lunch) :


Combination 1 : 2 bananas, 1 red apple, 1 green apple, 1 orange
Combination 2 : 1 banana, 1 red apple, 2 green apples
Combination 3 : 1 starfruit (whole), 1 apple, 1 orange (XL)
Combination 4 : 1 banana, 1 red apple, 1 green apple, 1 orange
Combination 5 : 1 red apple, 1 green apple, 1 orange, 5 cherry tomatoes (i can't take too much of this because apparently tomatoes will worsen sinusitis)

Basically, the above mentioned combinations are those main ones that i will take (one combination at any one time).....and the sizes are usually regular ones or big....you probably won't find me eating baby apples....though they are cute....haha....

Mei Lean once called me CRAZY....for eating so much fruits..right after my lunch....hah hah...remember those days when we got home after school, bathed, lunch, online (fruits time too!) =D

and till today.....i'm still so crazy...i just finished Combination 3 a moment ago...that prompted me to post this up....now coming to think of it, i begin to wonder...if my blood glucose is high...because of all the natural sugars i took in....the last blood glucose test done in september 2006 was perfectly normal.....basically because i don't usually take sweet foods....except sweets...yes...sweets...but nowadays i take very little sweets already...don't know why.....

another funny thing would be....why does my stomach have a huge capacity for someone my size??weird huh? I assure you that i can eat as much as guys do...sometimes more....already done comparing with my fellow guy friends...*laughs* but one thing for sure...I LOVE FOOD!!!

yippiee yay yay....too happy thinking of food~~ciao~~

Bosses WITH NO RESPECT for workers

I was really happy and appreciative when my previous part-time (roadshows) job's boss called me up asking if I'm interested to work for a bridal shop for the Bridal Fair at Prangin Mall on 19th and 20th (today)....so of course, i grabbed the chance....after all its RM 50 per day....why not???Just for two days.....so that's basically how everything started and i met two bosses (husband and wife) who simply have no respect for others.


When my friend (Daphne) and I wanted to go to the washroom together....i mean why not when there are 8 people working at the same time and there weren't many or at that time, ANY customers.....it's just ridiculous that the boss (husband) stopped us and questioned us "why your all must go together ah??cannot one person go then come back another go ah??" Man...I don't see anything wrong....with 8 people working....if it was like only 2 people working....it will be very unreasonable for both of us to go to the washroom together....and in comparison....the other workers (their regular staff) got to go in pairs....OH HEY PLEASE....YOUR 50 BUCKS IS NOT EVERYTHING!....


Alas, we went too...after like standing there for 3 minutes listening to him babble....rite....the next thing that happened that got me furious was...."No one is to go eat dinner....Two of you (pointing at two of the other staff) go buy for the two of them (pointing at me and Daphne)...because it's already 7pm...." What a lame excuse.....and when I retorted to that saying that why not they go buy back...then Daphne and I will go buy ours...at least we get to buy what we want to eat, no? Come on, not like he pays for our meals....so who are you to stop us from eating what we desire...and most of it...i don't know what has 7pm got to do with us eating....we are humans after all....we need food to keep us standing all day for like say 10 hours (already counted the times we got to sit which is another part of this story)....so i was thinking "Isn't it a very basic human rights that he's intruding now??"


Okay...dinner over....he told another girl and I to go peep at another booth (another bridal house's that is which had very good business)....and to peep at their photo albums....ridiculous!!and he went over to Daphne and said this "Why did just let the customer go like that....you can always snatch them back from the opposite booth...." He pays us RM50 for 11 hours work and expecting us to 'snatch' customers from other booths....which is so unethical....*sighs*


Let's go on.....whenever we sat down he would stare at us.....mannnnn....think what....we are humans with aching legs due to prolonged standing in high heels....not robots....and even robots, will run out of battery, won't it??It's very, very unreasonable coming to this stage....that both of us almost decided to walk out on them....but to hold onto my personal principle, I decided to work today anyway....since I have made my promise beforehand....


So, my legs hurt like nobody's business and after soaking in hot water, how good a pain relief it was....but this morning i woke up all groggy...and puked i did....But, I still have to go because I won't let my friend down like that...leaving her there....so I went....

But, indeed my head was spinning periodically...and my legs (in heels) hurt worse than yesterday....that made me decide to tell the boss (wife) that I wish to work half-day only today...she said "Okay...if not later you pengsan"....So...yeahhh....GREATTTT!!...and then...she said i can leave at 3pm!!YAY....

We didn't get to go buy our lunch till 2.15pm!!!Actually, both Daphne and I brought food from home...mine was in tupperware and hers in styrofoam container....but if we get a chance to go somewhere else (which happened to exist.XD) to sit, we will of course...we ain't stupid ok!...So we went to that 'somewhere' on pretext of buying food...we sat for 15 minutes before leaving....that wasn't at all over the limits....i actually timed 15 minutes....then we went to get some bubble milk tea and got back to our booth....

Then, we took out our food and eat....Holy crap....at least 3 pairs of eyes were focused on us and our food! Don't we have time-out when having our meals??How rude they were to stare at us..but obviously, it wasn't simply stares....they were 'checking' out our food...and i saw the boss (wife) tell another girl that i sort of cheated to go buy food...but ended up eating my own food from home....so even if i did cheat...SO WHAT???I have my rights of doing anything during lunch hour don't I???as long as i didn't do anything against you bugger bosses and your hopefully, soon-to-die business....and then that girl...who had been talking to me nicely, stabbing the boss (wife) in front of me.....stabbed me from behind...."Yalo...somemore put in TUPPERWARE lo"...What in the world she thinks she is doing???" I got so pissed..that i almost went in front of her and said, "Now, you FATTY behsyiok zit i very health-conscious...must take tupperware go contain my food instead of putting in plastic....coz hot hot put in plastic no good la...."zzzzz....silly bugger...but it was already 2.45pm then....i thought to myself "why do i want to make enemies...when after all...after this job..or rather...after 3pm..i swear i don't know any of them (count Daphne out in this)...." So, i went on to do my job....


and at 3.15pm....i officially walked out on them...the boss (husband) was kind of mad and pissed off when i told him it's time for me to go...and courteously i said thank you.....I was sort of happy to see him pissed....but i feel bad on the other hand that Daphne had to stay on.....and I'm wondering if they are going to talk any bad about me to my previous boss who recommended the job to me.....HAH HAH....but hopefully after all that I have done for that boss, she will know what type of worker I am....if you treat me well....i will not do anything against you.....if u treat me with no respect....just don't expect me to give you my best....that is simple isn't it?


I had not whined a word....even when i had to work till past 12am..helping them clear the roadshow things the last time i worked for her (the other boss)....in fact, i volunteered to do so....and even after i no longer work for her, I volunteered to come back and serve one particular caucasian customer....whom I served back then....and I was almost always the last person to eat dinner....and i really went all out in my job.....so guess....i'm not afraid of the useless people badmouthing me....

It had been a pretty bad weekend for me i guess...that made me decide I will not take up anymore part-time jobs other than from Channel Blue....that's it!...after all...the RM50 is not really what i'm looking at....The main reason i took up this job was to show my appreciation to the previous boss of mine for having a thought on me to the extent calling me up to see if i'm interested in this job....and also I was touched by her call early in the morning on the day when SPM results came out....so...guess that's all for now.....

RanD0mitY.



This post shall be full of random items....i suddenly felt the randomness in me =) and it's going to be a post full of pictures.....to make up for the previous posts with only words in them..heh heh...



but there's something that i won't randomise here : the chronological order of the events that took place....




28/3/2008 : Bowie's birthday....


So, I specially went to Channel Blue today to celebrate her birthday with everybody there....had some kind of mini party with KFCs, US Pizzas, fiZzy drinks...etc...I followed Bowie to the KFC over at KOMTAR (since Prangin doesn't have one)....and as soon as our order was made...pOOOOffffff........it went all dark!.....imagine a KFC without lights??? and no, the electricity didn't come back at all even till we left the outlet!...the only light noticeable in the entire outlet......was..........look at the picture below!!




the chicken!!!!....focus of the entire KFC outlet!!...so I guess the generator only generates electricity to the main attraction of KFC....chicky..chicky..chicken!!!!


Few days later....



I went for cheng beng at Teluk Bahang.....climbed all the way up that hill full of graves...pssst...I was called the 'Alien' that day.....why???



HAH HAH!!! That's me! Can't recognise?? For those of you who knows I have a very troublesome nose and a pair of cranky lungs plus always-go-crazy goblet cells as well as antibodies which always...ALWAYS overreact, these explain all....hah hah...surreal?? I was down with fever on the day right after cheng beng last year....and had to see the doctor who shrieked (not really...but she did crank up a bit) "Can't you just NOT go???Finding troubles for yourself!"







ps. NO LAUGHING ALLOWED!!!!! >.<





On the way back from Teluk Bahang, i managed to capture a picture which I like a lot with my 2.0 megapixel camera phone....so forgive me for the poor qualities...all the photos taken for this post are from the same source....









serenity.tranquility.beauty.picturesque.





4 - 6/4/2008 : KL nothing-better-to-do-fun-trip XD

The only donuts outlet we have in Penang is Missy Donut...or wait, do we have Dunkin's donuts around???not too sure about that...but we never see droves n droves of people queueing up for the round, round thing some with a punctured centre and some with a centre puffed up....nicely decorated with nuts, chocolate, strawberry or even cheese....and the situation in KL is totally on the opposite....look.....




J.Co Donuts (Sunway Pyramid)....i left with two dozens of the colourful roundies....(I know it sounds a lot like 'undies' meeep ><)




if you are observant, there were three rows of queue....



Beauty of nature : Sunset (viewed from North-South Expressway)

one word...AMAZING.....



Finally....my recent new love : Starbucks' Ice Blended Chocolate Cream!!!!


Starbucks beats Coffee Bean flat on this.....sorry Coffee Bean lovers~~ blehh....


Today, 17/4/2008


Went to Starbucks at Prangin Mall with Daphne....yumms.....the taste of the chocolate melts me....perfect dose to go HIGH!!!....
LIES

Why do people lie??

Dictionary.com defines it as a false statement made with deliberate intent to deceive; an intentional untruth; a falsehood.

I will get particularly upset if im being lied to, who doesn't?? But, some people choose to just be ignorant about it.....but to me, it's a big thing....

Sometimes, I only choose not to upset the person who is lying, so i keep quiet about it.....but that doesn't mean i accept the lies im hearing......I want to hear the truth even if it hurts...because to know that someone is lying to me hurts me more...

Recently, I met a new friend whom i'm going to refer as X...we had great chats..weren't the I talk, X doesn't talk conversations..X questioned me a lot on the topics we randomly chatted about..were definitely two-way conversations....after awhile (3 weeks or around there)....I have completely no idea what happened....X disappeared from my msn....so i went through my chatlog with X over and over again...wondering if there was anything wrong in our conversations that caused this...but i assure u....NOTHING...everything seemed normal....

As a person who goes online everyday,especially on msn, I knew the probability for such a person to NOT on the msn at all for two weeks is near to zero....so there comes my thought about X (who had been online everyday since the first day we chatted, for the entire day, even if X was away).....so it striked me that X could have blocked me....but why??

so the story continues....

I saw updates on X's frienster profiles, uploaded photos...etc....so the reason of 'busy' that i pacified myself with earlier was again ruled out....then i took one of my friend's advice to email X...to find out the truth....i'm such of a person who just need to find out everything....and particularly, i cherish every friendship.....so i will go all out to check if anything went wrong.....

I waited.

for i think 8 days...and the reply came.....8 days is nothing because some of us do not check our emails for months....so i was fine with that.....

and X mentioned that nothing was wrong....just too busy to online.....i was happy learning that nothing was wrong....and X was just busy....I naively accepted it that way...although I knew it may not be that simple....it's natural for us humans to accept things the way we wanted it to be....

To this date, i can say i almost forgotten about X..due to all the busy scholarship stuff that i have been up to...till i decided to randomly check X's Friendster profile out....just for the fun of it...and guess what.....I saw VERY recently updated profile, shoutout etc....and X's Facebook activities were also extremely recent, like hours ago...so it didn't take long for me to wonder again, if X has been lying all this while??But, why?

I have decided not to ask X about it anymore...we stopped communicating (including emails) altogether now....it's not fair if i assume that X has been lying all this while....so i shall leave this story hanging as it is till this moment....

Back to the original topic, LIES...


Is it a neccesity or an excuse?Reflect.

A Friend in Need is a Friend Indeed

The title is clear...it's a famous proverb which almost every primary school kid knows...but how many of us are really a friend of such....Take just a moment and ask yourselves...

1. When was the last time you comforted someone because the person was heartbroken/sad/down?

2. When was the last time a friend of yours who was having troubles searched you up for a chat?

and most importantly, why do you think your friend looked for you though he or she still has many other friends around?

As for myself, when I'm sad, I will share my thoughts and whatever else that was bothering me. Close friends to me know this is the only mean that can make me feel better....not throwing things everywhere in the room, not slamming the door, not knocking my head against the wall! My reason? I feel much better after talking about my problem to my friend....

This post is supposed and meant to serve as a reminder to everyone....the next time a friend approaches you when he or she is in trouble, try to be as considerate as possible...and comfort, support him or her back....because this is what you need the next time you are down.....

Whatever else can come after your friend has calmed down.....like if you think you want to help your friend rationalise his or her problem....because more often than not, nobody who is down wants another person to rub salt at the wound....it hurts....not only because of the problem he or she is facing but it also hurts your friendship....

Yes, i admit this post came in after my personal experience with a friend (im sure you know who you are)..i was glad that you realised it....because honestly i was a bit worried if it will permanently damage our friendship...after all the things i said.....and also after all the things you said....well...i appreciate the openness we share...at least...now nothing is damaged....=)

So...to everybody out there....your friend in need...needs your support and comfort...and not to be forgotten, my favourite...teehee HUGHUG!!(*winks* at Raymond, Mervin and my close gal pals..you guys know this works wonders for me XDXDXD)..

Remember to be there for your friend in need ok? ;) and don't hesitate to talk things out with your friend when the need arises to avoid any misunderstandings and damages to your friendship....a good friend doesn't come falling through the sky....it came through mutual respect.....or at least this is what i think....


Think of yourself in your friend's position!

JPA INTERVIEW OVERRR!!

Teehee...yeppp.....JPA interview is over and done with, officially at 3.50pm, 3rd April 2008! I don't know what to say...but would consider myself lucky. The question I got was "Name a personal achievement which you are proud of and why?"

I would say this is a very nice question because it's a personal question and not factual! I loveeee it! But then again, im not going to be over-confident about it. Probably a 50-50 chance....but hopefully i do get it.....

I had the chance to look through a list of common interview questions the night before...and this question was one of it....so its GRREAAAAT!!!..but somehow...i think i was a tad bit too nervous...thank goodness i didn't crank everything up....just abit here and there when the adrenaline finds their spot in my head! *chuckles*...

I'm too tired of all these scholarship stuff that have been boggling me down ever since SPM results were out!...So, it's time to take a short break....going to KL tomorrow and will be back on Sunday!...Cheerio to all....Take care.....

=)

HeH Heh! =)


YAY~ Passed driving d...waaa the long dreaded process of kursus, undang, kursus, practical 16 hours.....and now it's all history...wooohoooo.....thank goodness i made it through one test only...if not it's going to be even more dreadful....and also waste $$ Haha....

So...today...woke up at 7.20am...took a bath....then received a call from Soon Lee confirming that i will be going to the driving school by myself....but i added and told her i will go to the exam place in Bukit Minyak, Bukit Mertajam by myself also....

At Soon Lee when i arrived, there was only one candidate sitting obediently waiting for the rest to arrive or to come back (in the school's vans)....before going to BM....so i quickly got hold of my index number which was 0045....i was registered as the first candidate for Soon Lee for today's test.....but 45th of the entire test for the first session...there are 3 sessions altogether....

I called Hsia Sheen while i was almost reaching there and was told that they are all still in the driving school....*holy crap*....but who cares....i reached there and registered.....

I was the first batch to go on the road...woohooo...at 9.45am....the malay woman examiner from JPJ....was a bit nasty....she criticised me for not reversing to get out but instead wait for the car in front to move first.....well..i did not want to take the risk....it was a bit sloppy ther....then as we reached the housing estate as part of the route....she told me "Tambah LAJU!!" wth...i was driving at 20++ km/h and the big sign by the road says "Had Laju 30km/jam" grrr....so i ignored her....

She then said "depan mia lambat....potong saja la..." OMG.....how on earth can i potong when there's double line??? and worst....it was a housing estate with a school nearby! *pissed* ignored her once more....and hah hah....she had to give me a PASS for knowing the rules and not obeying her silly instructions like a donkey!!..muahhaha....

Next...up the hill i went.....perfectO!!....stopped right in the middle of the yellow thing....but what happened was.....as i let go my hand brake to descend.....my engine went dead..!!!DEAD!!!....thanks to my fast reflex....stepped on the brake pad....and pulled the handbrake...so the car didn't slide down....yay.....and my second attempt to descend was successful.....

Parking was always alright....because I believe it's very technical...follow the steps and you're sure going to be in the box....but....i didn't reverse enough when i was trying to get out....couldn't come out....so i reversed again...n yep this time safely out......

Out and out i went to 3-point-turn....I realised i didn't reverse enough again this time around....Arghhhh.....but thank god.....i managed to get out safely.......and yep....PASSED!! XD

WHat a relief!! fuuu....

WOOOHOOOOOO.......has it been really THAAAAAA---TTT long???



August 7, 2006!!!!mind you, 2006!!!!Haha to start it off...Happy 2008 everyone! May we have a greater year ahead....I know it's a belated one....awww.....I finally managed to make myself blog once again...it has been long....This blog previously was one place where i had poured all my heart's contents into..especially sad and depressing ones...but now i have decided that this shall be renewed...



I shall also thank a friend who had unrelentlessly (till she gave up *chuckles*) asked me to update this blog....heh heh....that's noneother than Mei Lean!!...and then Han Lyn went "blog lar...so can know what is going on around our friends!!" So...my humble blog shall see the world again!!!YAY!...cheerio~~


Shall I make this a long, long post or shall i post a separate post?? I decided...i shall make it long.. to signify the long, long while it has been idle....




So what has been going on in my life??



Firstly...SPM ended on 30th November (accounts paper) as everybody knows....and i really, totally forgotten everything by now....



Then, I went for a short break in KL along with Yan Yee, Su Yin and Yan Mei....It was cool as we stayed at a superbly high-end condo (not sure if it's still considered a condo or a supercondo)...which was 3 minutes walk away from KLCC....we went around shopping and the funniest thing of all was we ran across KLCC mall (from its north entrance and exited through its south entrance) and then across KLCC park overseeing the fountains and enthusiastic joggers... HAH HAH...just to get to another high-end apartment with superbly tight security!We had to run because we were late for dinner!!!...>.<



The fun was short-lived like any other holidays would...and back I was in Penang....that was mid of December already....









Penang Adventist Hospital's "Voices of Hope" concert kept me busy attending orchestra practices for another few weeks till 24th December 2007 when we had the inaugural performance...



Came next was the unforgettable "spring cleaning" at home on Christmas day....iskkkk so Un-Christmassy!!!...was still a bit drowned in the Christmas and New Year mood as my parents and I went for the New World Park Christmas countdown after the concert!..


dusts...more dusts.....a lot of dusts.....friggin' loads of dusts........




dot dot dot....


Went for job-hunting the day after with Raymond in Queensbay....I decided I shall change my mind and do something fruitful instead of sitting at home and earn NO bucks....right....




"Ahhhhh....arghhhhh.........huuu.....huuu.....ahhhh...."

I groaned and groaned...


I was down with fever the next morning...higher and higher my body temperature went...Haagen-Dazs buffet that night became less and less unrealistic for me.....grrr.....before my brother and sister with their significant others indulge in the buffet, I was already on my way 'checking' into Adventist Hospital!!How sad.....but heh heh....there was something that cheered me up that night...found out that there's free wi-fi service in the hospital, right from my bed!!! YAY!...so my laptop grew some legs and crawled all the way to the hospital and on my bed!! teeheee....I spent the next few days there and finally got discharged on 3rd January 2008 with a slightly scarred right hand on the flesh supported by carpals (checked the Bio book already!) due to 30ml antibiotic jab each day for FOUR days...yeahh...i spent New Year's eve and New Year's Day in a place called...HOSPITAL! *pitiful*



I bounced back to my usual self again....and went out wif my cousin to Queensbay....job-hunting once again!...filled in a few forms....and left....pretty much a routine....onlining was the next to-do thing as soon as i got home...

9+pm...and Han Shern asked if i'm interested in a job at an optical shop in Prangin Mall, just for four days....starting the next day.....since i had nothing to do....i said..."okie....i will be there at 10am tomorrow"....I was then told "ohh...I won't be there...but don't worry...Khang Yang will be there....he's oso starting tomorrow....so I will tell him to jaga you"....HO Ho HO...

The next four days was interesting, fun-filled and thus far my happiest days in 2008!..I enjoyed the job to bits and the company of my colleagues (including KY) proved great!!...KY then turned full-time...by the time I unofficially 'applied'...was told that there was no more vacancy....but i was booked for the next two roadshows in February....with one just ended yesterday (24th Feb 2008)



Meanwhile, Ling Fen called me up on my second day at work in Channel Blue (optical shop) telling me some at that time, not-so-sure good or bad news.....her boss is offering me either a full-time or a part-time (fri, sat and sun) job at her shop, Laleli in Queensbay....Hard decision... I loved my job at Channel Blue so much that i only agreed to the part-time job at Laleli....and started on the following Friday....but that job was rather short-lived...I left after four days (Fri, Sat, Sun and the following Sat)....because I had already promised Channel Blue to work from Feb 1st-5th...

Yep...then came the pre-CNY Channel Blue roadshow in Prangin concourse...made another two new friends (new colleagues..my fellow part-timers too)....heh heh....


CNY was next.....loads and loads of fizzy drinks...chips....yummy foods......went down my "natural sewage system" HAH HAH....




On third day of CNY, went to Evergreen Laurel Hotel for buffet lunch...as a family gathering..However..only half of the entire family could make it....met Gaik Lyn there...hahaha..so coincidental!






My family and I then went down to KL that night and spent the next few days there...visited my KL aunt who didn't come back this year and went for dinners with another few families....lazy to elaborate...I guess nobody is interested in this also! lols...








Came back on that Tuesday evening....and guess what....went down to KL AGAIN on that Friday night!!pssssttt.....for housewarming party on saturday....had fun playing cards that night with my nephews and cousins.....n ATE loads....wakakakaka.....I'm a "LIVE TO EAT" person!






Back I was in Penang on Sunday evening.....then..hmmm...nothing much for that following week till Feb 21st when i went back to work at Channel Blue....Gurney Roadshow...but I stayed in the shop over in Prangin and didn't go over to Gurney....not too bad....had great times with my colleagues (Ah Wong, Bowie and Chi Cheng) in the shop....hilarious of all...."sam tim sam...har mm cha" (in cantonese, translated as..."3.15...tea time!") and all of us enjoyed a great cup of coffee + Gardenia rendam kuah campur untuk roti canai + Bread History cakes!!! HAH HAH HAH....

And....today (25th feb)....i made another "life-changing decision"......that is....




to BLOG ONCE AGAIN!!....Welcome back!.....



ps. Hopefully I won't hangat-hangat tahi ayam and stopped updating right after....=D this is the longest post ever.....*coolsome*
