Lost 016 HP

My dear RED Nokia 8310 with red band and 6 crystal studs,

You've made me so miserable,
Without you I am nothing,
Without you I am useless,
Without you I am scatter-brained;

You've made me thinking of you,
Especially when I'm searching in my pocket,
Especially when I'm searching in my bag,
Especially when I'm searching on my desk;

You've made me so nostalgic,
With your black & white screen,
With your great & small body,
With your sweet monotone & loud voice;
And also the one-sided red earrings with 6 crystal studs.

Why, oh, why don't you make yourself reappear?
And save me from all those troubles,
And save me from all those dilemmas,
And save me from all those naggings from my mother!

My dear RED Nokia 8310 with red band and 6 crystal studs,
You are the present from AhMi & AhPa for my 19th Bday present,
That is why, I so wish to have you back...
Please come back to me...
I Love you so Much~

Time-dominance

This week... list of my time-dominance:-

1) K-Economy Presentation
I kind of forgot about this presentation which me and my Groupmates are suppose to be presenting because I'm so busy with my Sun-Tzu assignment. 5 minutes before 2.00pm, I called up YiFang to ask her to sign the attendance for me. Luckily she reminded me about my assignment! Darn thingy, I forgot! And the worst thing is that I have no preparations and it's 5 more minutes to 2.00pm. Quickily I called WeeSean and asked him about the circumstances. I was really lucky because at 2.10pm, the first group is still setting up their slides, my group was the fourth group to present. I only have a few minutes to brush my teeth, bathe, and.. prepare for what I have to day in front of about 100 students. (Luckily, most of them skipped class for that day. So, i have only about 70 students, instead of 100. Ngek.. ngek... ngek...) Anyway, i reach class about 2.45pm, and about 3.20pm, it's our turn. And I would say. I did my presentation good enough. ;-)
Presentation was kind of normal to me as we, in the management class, had had alot of practices during our beta and gamma years. I was not nervous or anything.
Aiyah, macam biasalah kan... dah buat presention banyak kali.. dah kira boring lar.. Hehehe...

2) Strategic Management Presentation
This is the most troublesome assignment I've ever had! We're suppose to read Sun-Tzu Art of War and its strategies and apply it together with the strategies taken out from our textbook, and present it to "the investors from country called Guahuduit" so that they will have the confidence to invest in our company, Telcom which our competitors are Tigi and Naxis. Anyway, our dear country Guahuduit doesn't exist. I nearly laughed out loud when some of my coursemates really THINK THAT GUAHUDUIT IS A REAL COUNTRY!!! What a general knowledge~ Really burst my tummy out of laughing! Men-siasui-kan IB students nia..
Actually, Guahuduit means 'Gua-U-Duit" in a hokkien-malay mix, which also means, 'I Have Money'. Anyway, this presentation doesn't goes well as planned because the time is so limited as we did showed a corporate video that have taken about 13 minutes of our time. Another lecturer from the next class knocked the door of our class to rush us out. Darn fella!!! Doesn't he realize that our marks rely heavily on this StooPiG assignment?!!! *anger* Chicken Bum Bum Him!!!!

3) Global Operation Midterm Exam
OK, this I was well waaaay behind for this subject's exam. I mean, everybody's been studying so much and I had only 1 night to study. All because of those damn 2 presentations! But I still gotta hit it.

4) Assignment Submition
The previous was only a Sun-Tzu presentation, but now I have to rush for the written Sun-Tzu assignment! Had only a few hours of sleep. Luckily the class was cancelled due to the midterm exams we had previously. Meaning, I get the whole day off. No class for the day. Yippee!!! But the assignment pulled my mood down the drain again.. SIGH....

5) Free Day
My free day of the week. I don't feel like doing anything except start studying on my next e-commerce midterm on coming Monday and lying down on my bed and relaxing and day-dreaming and snoozing..... Peace at last... But~!
My roomate's friends from Tangkak came. So the peace actually only last for a few moments. SIGH... Never mind, at least I did studied 1 chapter before they arrived.

6) Continuation of Midterm
Boohoohoo.... I went for Badminton in the morning before in hit the books in the evening.. Was there with a few of my friends, including, HiAW-Ge, my badminton sifu! It's been a long time since I've played with him, well, usually, he teach me more than I play with him, since he's my sifu. Hahaha... *ok, cold joke*
Came back in the near-evening, and dinner with LiLing and AhFung. Buzzed NeohKor at first, but it seems that he was not at his desk, I suppose. =) Went to Family Heritage to have my dinner as LiLing have the sudden urge for chicken chop. And so, the late dinner (I don't really like Family Heritage because of their lack of efficient service. The food is ok though. Only ok. Just average) was with LiLing's ENORMOUS chicken chop and free water for only RM6; my PETITE and UNDERSIZED fish & chips and free water at RM7 (kinda regret for ordering it); and AhFung's rendang chicken rice and free water at RM5. My tummy was itching for more when i finished my fish & chips, so I hantam LiLing's chicken chop! Muahahaha.... *evil laugh*
And also... Thanx to HiAW-Ge for the barli drink. He cook it! And brought it to me! Soooooooo touched... cause he went out in a hurry, riding his motorcycle BAREFOOTED!!!
Was studying until halfway my head can't input anymore points. My roomie and her friend SMSed me on going clubbing.. and so... I mean, since i can't input anymore, why not just went out for some fun and continue studying later? Furthermore, I've promised I'll go to PureBar with them "someday". Glad that they've picked "this" day anyway. Hahaha...
Clubbing ended kinda early at about 2.30am cause they've heard that the police are having a road block at some place, somewhere. So we went for a little supper before heading back to Bukit Beruang. And.. I am sooooooo touched again! This time by NeohKor, as he wanted to wait for me to come back.. but he have to wake up early the next day because of his TaiChi practice. Nevertheless, AhKor... really thank you for your concern ya...
Came back about 4.00am, in the rain, and my hair really smells like it's been ducked in a heap of smoke! Spent half an hour in the bathroom just to get rid of the smell, and wait for a couple of hours continue studying while waiting for my hair to dry before falling asleep...

Faith

Found something funny in my Inbox. Sharing it. Though I'm not a Christian, but I still find the joke relatively funny~ =D

One day a 6 year old girl was sitting in a classroom. The teacher was going to explain evolution to the children.

The teacher asked a little boy: "Tommy, do you see the tree outside?"
TOMMY: "Yes."

TEACHER: "Tommy, do you see the grass outside?"
TOMMY: "Yes."

TEACHER: "Go outside and look up and see if you can see the sky."
TOMMY: "Okay."

(He returned a few minutes later.)
TOMMY: "Yes, I saw the sky."

TEACHER: "Did you see God up there?"
TOMMY: "No."

TEACHER: "That's my point. We can't see God because he isn't there. Possibly he just doesn't exist.
A little girl spoke up and wanted to ask the boy some questions.

The teacher agreed and the little girl asked the boy: "Tommy, do you see the tree outside?"
TOMMY: "Yes."

LITTLE GIRL: "Tommy, do you see the grass outside?"
TOMMY: "Yessssss!"

LITTLE GIRL: "Did you see the sky?"
TOMMY: "Yessssss!"

LITTLE GIRL: "Tommy, do you see the teacher?"
TOMMY: "Yes ."

LITTLE GIRL: "Do you see her brain?"
TOMMY: "No."

LITTLE GIRL: "Then according to what we were taught today in school, she possibly may not even have one!"

You Go Girl!
"FOR WE WALK BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT" ~ II CORINTHIANS 5:7

Concoction 3

These days, I've been getting lazier and lazier... the thought of penning down scares me. Not that i'm sick of blogging, it's just, the mood is not there anymore. This mood scares me too. Though i'm not in the journalism dicipline, but i do take blogging as the tiny chance to improve my imaginative writing skills. Ahh... imaginative writing, my favourite kind of essay. Gives me the power to say whatever i want, whatever i imagine it to be, without others telling me that my points are incorrect. Got most of the inspirations from all sort of books i've read in my secondary library. It was my second home in school. An english book-haven indeed. Really appreciate my library teacher is not that strict on books that are to be displayed in the library. Trust her that she can even pick a comic from the shelf to read. But of course, it was the collection of The Adventures of Tintin. Hahaha... And of course, my english tuition teacher, Mdm. Adeline Cruz, who always guide me through my grammar mistakes... and also her help on my literature skills on 'The Return' by K.S. Maniam. The way she drill our literature languages, my oh my, thou shalt listen to thee~ Anyway, back to the imaginative writing, i know i've got alot of red markings on my paper. Darn~! But just as so, learning is as mastering unwanted mistakes. Sadly, my skills are rusted now =(

Back to the recaps~

1) CNY day 1
Invited my ex-collueges, Ms. Kam, Poh Hwa, May Lan, Siew Lee, Tat Huat, and AhKhoo, to my open house. Too bad AhCheng & WenSiauChen can't come as their hometowns are far away. Keeping promises of calling them out for yamcha whenever i'm back in Penang. Had a nice chat till wee hours!

2) CNY day 2
A day spent in my grandmother's house with the WHOLE family, even the extended ones. Had a nice gathering with my cousins, with those cheeky ones running here and there.

3) CNY day 3
Corina came to visit me. PheiYong & YeanTheng wanted to come too, but they can't come back on time, thus gotta leave visits to my house out.

4) CNY day 4
Went to LaiShan's, WayNah's, SweeIm's, CheaYing's, YitShee's, and ChoonNai's house. Got lotsa angpows and lotsa delicious delicacies for my tummy! We wanted to go to Corina's and PheiYong's house too, but sadly, they're not in. SookMing's not free too. =(

5)CNY day 5
Back to Malacca with my Papito, Mummy, and both of my bratty sisters. Met Sweet's parents for dinner at Dynasty Sung in Malim. What a hearty 8 dishes meal it is!!! Went back to City Bayview for a rest over the night.

6) CNY day 6
Went to Sweet's house in Nyalas in the morning. Had lunch in Tangkak. Then, Papito, Mummy, and both dear sisters left for Kay-Elle. Sisters will be having their final exams.

7) CNY day 7
Papito & Mummy drove back to Penang by themselves. Take care dears~
Leaving me to meet my new roomate, Jecilyn, a Kelantanese. A nice girl she is.

8) CNY day 8
First day in campus after 4 long months. Nothing really changed except for the zinc shade they did connecting Plaza Siswa and block B. By the way, it's the Hokkien's CNY!!! Gong Xi! Gong Xi!

9) CNY day 9
I can't really recognize faces anymore. I don't mean to ignore my friends but, i'm just either forget their names or forget their faces, or both. And by the time i remembered their names, they are already a distance from me.

10) CNY day 14
8 course meal at Dynasty Sung again! Hehehe... But divided by 19 person is kinda cheap at about RM23 per person. I can't really remember the exact price anymore, but it's somewhere that figure. "Last" day for those crazy bunch to gamble 'chor tai ti'. Hehehe...

11) CNY day 15
Last day of CNY...
huu..huu..huu.. ='(

12) Valentine's Day
Still have class on tiring Tuesday... but luckily my tutor is so darn understanding! Might be he has to rush home for some early preparations too~ Hehehe...
Reach my house and Sweet just say, "Today wear nice nice, k?". I wondered where are we going to have our dinner. "Newton". Crazy fella, told me to dress-up and we'll only eat in Newton? "So? Alot of people are eating at Newton." With a formal dress-up but dine in Newton?? Are you out of your mind? "There's alot of office people who eats at Newton after work. We can look like one of them." Yeah right, and on Valentine's Day too~ *eyes rolling* If we are really there, you can expect me to take a taxi back, no charges from you though. "Okok... (drags me out of the house) Let's just go into the car. (Drags me into the car) Here we go!"
In the end, we stopped at Simply Fish and ordered their Valentine set. Luckily, we were one step ahead, because it was getting crowdy later on. Met my cousin, PhitHuan, and her bf, and LingSing and her bf there too. Such a happy moment! The service was kind of slow, might be because the shop was so pack with loving couples. Well yeah, including us. Teeheehee~
The food arrived after tons of pestering to the waiter & waitresses.
After dinner, Sweet gave me another surprise! Wine!!! One glass of white wine, and another glass of red wine in Renaisance. Never thought Sweet was so 'this' romantic! *gush gush*
We were kind of full with the fillings of chicken, fish, oysters & wine in our tummies. Sweet suggested a walk before we go home and continueing his FYP project. I was kind of down when i heard about his FYP. It means that the night is near the ending.
Once again, Sweet did his surprise. We went for a walk in the "Venice of Malacca". It was a pretty riverside walk. Colourful lights abloom from the both side of the river. The Malaccan government did do a great job at creating a romantic atmosphere. Kudos to them!
On our way back to the car, we're met another couple with a bottle of wine at the hood of their car. I think the guy is PROPOSING to the girl! Aww... how lovely.. proposing on Valentines...
And... as us.. we just have to congratulate them, wouldn't we?

This is the LuVLy couple --->

Also, we've got ourselves photographed =D

Upon reaching the gate of our house, Sweet says it's not complete. I just looked at him as i was expecting the end of the night. I was pampered too well with those seafood, wine, and the walk; what could i expect more? He did better than i expected. Sweet grinned sheepishly and turn to the back of his car... let a hand into his car boot... and out come... a bouquet of red roses~!!!
"The night is not complete without any roses," says Sweet. AAWWwwww... *gush gush*

Darling, 143 u too....

The Balancing Act

Once in a circus, a clown picks up a long pole, walks up to the end of the tower with the pole held horizontically, with his right foot out.. and slowly.. puts his first step on the 3cm broad rope. He took a deep breath, held it for a moment before letting it go. He takes another deep breath, this time, held it in his lungs. The clown takes up his other left foot... and puts it in front of his right foot, enclosing the gap between his feet. His hand held tightly onto the pole. He told himself again and again to never look down. He never looks down. It's been a habit that he tries to remind himself over the times. He walks on the rope, trying to get to the other end, with his feet racing with one another trying to be the first foot on the rope. Don't look down, don't look down, he tries to tell himself, it's nearer now. The second tower still seems far away. He stops for a moment. The rope is swaying a little bit. He held his pole tighter with one of the end held higher than the other to get his balance. The swaying slows down. He continues his journey... to the other tower. Do NOT look down, he scolds himself. Although there are safety precautions on hanging a big wide net underneath the long ropes, between the two towers taken by the circus management, he tries to imagine the worst. The clown broaden his feet gap, making his steps bigger, making his steps quicker to the other side. I'm near.. I'm reaching.. he thinks to himself, focusing. As he puts his left foot onto the other tower, finally, I reached. With both feet on the platform, he turns to the blank audience, and bowed.

Ironically,

Once in a house, I picked up a rag cloth, walks up near the round thigh-high chair situated next to a round stool chest-high, with the rag cletched tightly in my fist. I took a deep breath, and puts out my right foot on the stool. I let my right leg's calf muscle to pull my body up. My hands opened widely to balance myself while on the way up. I know my right leg is stronger than my left leg. I took another deep breath. Puts my right foot on the high stool, again with the elp of my calf muscle, i help myself up. The stool shook a little. I streatched my arms again to take the balance. Once i get used to the left & right sway, I started to turn myself to face the grilled-window. And my hand with the rag starts to go up and down parallel with the designs of the window grill... when I'm finished, I turn... and heard a voice,
"Hey, you've missed a spot there!!!"

P/S: Feliz 'Primavera Limpiar'!!!
Happy Spring Cleaning!!!

Gurls' N!T3 OuT

My day started in the evening. Had a wonderful chat in MSN with one of my close pal, SookMing, talking about who came back, who kept in touch, and who doesn't, and suddenly it just pops in my head to go yamcha with them all. We got exhited, ok, well, it was I got exhited, and we started calling up those who we think might be able to make it. So we called up about 6-7 gals.

Who : 6-7 CBM girls
When : 9.30pm
Where : Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf at Autocity, Pg

As usual, my Wednesday of 5-7pm s my sports hour. I never mention this in my previous posts as i never had the chance.. (truth is, i'm lazy). Well, anyway, I don't know what's gotten into me today as my stamina don't stand long as usual. I got tired pretty quick for my usual stance. Not like me at all. Might be the heat. Those alluminium rolled-up doors really kept the warmth in the badminton hall even though it is sheltered with high ceilings and well exhaust fans. It must be it, the alluminium trap the heat in the hall. It felt just like sauna.. hot and steamy! (hehe.. minus the steamy or else it looks like ******)

Went straight back home for dinner and found out tat Mom do not plan to cook. Had a teochew dinner in town after a few jefty suggestions. Rushed back to get in time with the girls later. I am so exhited. I haven't met LYT & JAT since Form5!

Reached at 9.30pm but none of them was there yet. I guess I was early. Luckily i brought my paperback to accompany me while waiting.. Sweet called in just the right time, cuz i was so not into the content of the book. On one eyeball, I kept reading the same page over & over again, as the other eyeball are scanning for my frens.. Later, those girls just appear from nowhere and poof! right in front of me. Miracles happens.

SM, PY, YT, HC. All my old frens.. PY just came back from Aus for a 1 month hols while YT, also came back from Aus, are looking for a job. Both graduated... unlike me... still an undergrad. Huu..huu..huu.. Having a chat over coffee are always a nice time to hangout. The only thing missing is the breeze. Sigh... We teased each other verbally just about everything.. mostly focus on PY's new Aussie bf. Hahaha! And the orange-coloured perfetly-round insignificantly-low moon. Oh yeah, we cover all the aspects of the Zen-Art-of-Conversation, studies, jobs, bf, lost fren, coffees, pay dutch, and of course, the weather. Paradoxically, actually.

Sigh... might as well focus on tommorow's lunch appointment with Datin Cheong... then ShOPPinG at Pacific~!!

Back with Junkmails

After months of idling, finally.. I'm BACK~

I'm back. I'm back. I'm back. I'm back with a whole lots stories to bable.

I've left alot of things idled.. my blog... my friendster.. and most importantly.. my e-mails! So don't be surprise when I haven't read some of your mails mailed to me like 1 month ago~

So now, I'm currently blogging back my style while checking junkmails. Yes, I do read junkmails. They are a colour to my inboxes! Categories of exquisite places of interest; rare pictures; photos of celebrities and X-posed celebs; friendship/love poems; jokes, more lame jokes; precaution emails abt sex assults, rapist, police, etc.; sex stories/pics (c'mon, be open-minded); sexy ladies with revealing outfits (not that I mind though, but I prefer sexy men pics), what else that I've missed?

I can accept all those as to entertain my life when i am either

1. bored;
2. having my meals in front of my pc;
3. very very bored.

But, some junks that I can't accept is

• Pics of babies, especially FAT "ADORABLE" BABIES that look like the icon of Michelin;
• Yes, pictures of animals are cute... but NOT in FORCED mode. An accidental shot of one of those cutie pies are enough to make my day;
• No more adobe-photoshopped fat babies being made looking like Doreamon;
• Gory pics of how abortions are done which those featus are compared with the size of a cent.

Anyway, time to foward foward foward junkies.

By the way, I've filtered my mails. I'll just be fowarding those which I think is really really nice. To those who are my "victims", all i can say is... ENJOY~

The Fifth One

After I just had my first pay from Muda Papermill, the company which I was working with for my Industrial Training, I planned to bring my parents to Kim Gary at Gurney Plaza for some nice exquisite lunch. My pay was not much, but I felt like I wanted to thank my parents. I don't know why, but just felt like thanking them with my first pay. Reached there about 12.30 pm but I wasn't expecting the crowd to be hung over the place. We even have to take a number if we were to follow the original plan, but Dad was to hungry to wait. And they blame me for taking my own sweet time to dress up, therefore reaching there so late. *Ouch* Anyway, Dad's growling tummy leads us to Nando's Chicken at groundfloor. Thank God, the crowd wasn't that much and we are able to feed Dad's tummy into silence. My treat it is. I'm kind of dissappointed for not being able to treat them Kim Gary's. It has been a hot talk in most happening places about the nice food they serve. I do not know how true it is but i'm willing to find out. It's Penang, by the way, the Food-Haven! So, anybody for treats?

Mom hinted me that she wanted to buy something for me. So the next destination was to Georgetown. Mom pointed to a particular goldsmith at Campbell Street. The location of my fifth present.
Thanks Mom, Thanks Dad!
I love u guys too~!!!

StreamyX & Temper!!!

4 weeks without my stremyx and i completely forgot how to get myself online!
Seems abit dramatic? Let's just say, i just had 4 weeks without knowing that my modem was down. Waaaay down. Previously, it just gets disconneted for no reason, then i would operate my pc, and without much problem, i can get back to the net. There was once i called those StreamyX fellas and they thought me how to troubleshoot my pc by teaching me to set another manual dial-up. Done that, and the line just goes on smoothly for about 1 week, and then the disconnecting gets worst. Sometimes i can't online at all. Was fuming back then.. nearly punch my CPU.

Thinking not to bother with it much yet, it might be better when i come back from Cameron Highlands, i ignored the problem and went to have fun with my family during Raya break. The problem remains the same the week after that. Finally, called up the StreamyX fellas (yes, i know i should have done it as soon as i come back.. sigh..) and told them about my problem *again* They called my to troubleshoot using the same way. Did that but STILL no results. I complained till they ears were numb, and they just say, "Ms. Tan, calm down, we'll send u a technician if the problem still persists in another 48 working hrs." 48 WORKING HOURS!!!! I still have to wait that LOOOOOOONG. *fumes fumes*

Anyway, i bugged them again after just 36 working hrs and requested for a technician the very next day at 6pm at my house. I'm intolerable, i know.. teeheehee~!
They sent me a technician who doesn't want to work overtime and expect me to be at home before 4.30pm best. Wat ThE DumB*$$!!!! I NEED TO WORK TOO~!
So much so that i can at least pay for my petrol! Hu...huuu....huu...
I had to persuade that fella until he agrees to come at 5.30pm. It's like bargaining prices for an item, the only difference is that i'm bargaining for time. Might be because of my charms and my sweet voice over the telephone (*yeah.. yeah.. i know most of you won't agree with that statement, especially my sisters..), the person eventually agrees at 5.30pm. Fine! 5.30pm it is.

I speeded back to reach home before 5.30pm in order to get ready my pc. He came, and after minutes of checking & troubleshooting... he found that it was nothing wrong with my innocent CPU... it was the fault of my modem. My only 6-month old modem. Only 6-month old. Luckily, it was still under guarantee. Was able to change a new modem without a cost. Whoopedoo~!

So much for my flash news. Just wanted to pour the temper in this post. Till the next one!

Happy Deepavali & Selamat Hari Raya

Idled

OMG!
I'm idling my blog again *again*

Right after my exams, i never have time to jot something down. Even if there's some time left, i'll be doing household chores from now on as i'm at home in my hometown. Pah~
Dear Mummy wants me to do all those work, sweep the floor, mop it, laundry, etc. etc.; and if I don't, I won't get to have my dinner. Does that sound like a poor pitiful Cinderella? Thanks to the 21st century, we have brooms and mops with a higher handle, vacuum cleaner, and of course the wonderful washing machine!!! -- And I'm still able to have my dinner even though I ignored my chores. Mom is not that mean. Hahaha... Just that I'll feel guilty if I don't help her around the house. Bless that I'm having my industrial training now, so I don't have to listen to her nags. I'm darn tired after work.

Lemme have this flashback thingy. What did I did for the past few weeks?

• Week 1 : Summer fun in Langkawi with the groupie~!! =D

- I'll show the pics when I get all those photos uploaded. Takes time. Cuz I'm darn lazy.

• Week 2: Starting of Industrial Training week 1.

- Started to appreciate my bed even more in the early morn. *YAWN~*

• Week 3: Industrial Training week 2.

- Doing nothing special except for falling asleep earlier and earlier each night. Elaborations later in the upcoming posts. *maybe* Teeheehee~

KimFei's Visit

A few months back, KimFei told me that she would be coming to Malacca around October. Eventually, she cancelled her plan 3 weeks before her planned date, due to our exams because we can't accompany her that much as we must study for our finals. Then today, evening, this gurl called me and practically forced me to have dinner with her. And i teased,

"Oh, ok. You have your dinner in Alor Setar while I have mine in Malacca at the same time. And then, we'll converse by phone together, and we'll order the same dish on the table. That counted as eating with you, right? Hahahaha..."
"Eh, I'm already in Malacca lar."
"Don't bluff. You finished your industrial trainning already meh?"
"Yalar."
"Aiks~ True ar? You're in Malacca?!"
"Yalar."
"Why are you in Malacca out of the sudden?"
"What else do you think? Just come out for dinner later, ok?"
"I'm having Stats exam tomorrow, dear gurl."
"Aiyah, never mind. It'll only take just about 1 hour. Just a simple dinner. You have to have dinner too. Meet me in Mesra Ria at 8.30pm, ok?"

So, ok. I went with her plan to meet her in Restoran Mesra Ria at 8.00pm instead of 8.30pm. My tummy can't stand to have dinner so late. Pah~
And there we were together for dinner with KimFei, SooPing, TianHao, Pua & his new friend Sapto, and of course, Sweet. KimFei told me that she just reached Malacca today and are going back to Alor Setar tomorrow night. Just a two-day-one-night trip. But still, I'm touched by her sincerity.
KimFei purposely come down to Malacca for my 21st Bday.
Waa...waaa..waaa... *tears of joy* KimFei..... You're my dear-honeypie-munchkin-sugar-sweet-coated-darling! Thank you so much...
And thanx for bringing down my bohemian bracelet & anklet present too, dear gurl. My fourth present! =D

Legally Adult

The day before yesterday AhKor came over to my house... reasons to visit me in my new house, because he haven't stepped into my room before ever since i moved here. Well, Kor.. that's a lame reason to pass me my present.. hahahaha... though it is true.. you haven't been here ever since i moved in. He brought a CityChain paperbag.. containing a brown package which look like a book. It is a book. My first 21st Bday present, a book entited 'PS, I Love You' by Cecelia Ahern, the daughter of the Ireland's Prime Minister. Ive read the sypnosis, i think it'll be VERY NICE story, a good read. =)

Then yesterday, i knew i have to study for Stats for tomorrow, Sweet knew i have to study for Stats too. But, what's with just a "small supper", right? Eventually turned out to be a celebration for me, celebrated with a bunch of football-freaks in Subaidah-Nasi Kandar. Hahaha...
The eve of my Bday. With another new cake. Hahaha.. thanx to Sweet, I was the first to have a cake from Renaissance. Or so I've been told.


My 2nd Bday cake!

Had another gift from them. My second Bday gift, a Tomei platinum necklace with a heart locket. I don't think it's cheap, by the look of the brand. And a Bday DIY message-card. Oh yeah, AhKor called me again to wish me Happy 21st Bday. Thanx Kor...


o pretty one-- i meant the necklace~

Had a good time with them as Sweet received his present from the gang too, a lovely black laptop bag with shoulder strap attached, perfect use for his industrial training. He went to hug all of his friends... aww~
And another friend, DW, received his Bday DIY message-card too~~

We came back happily and I saw my couz left me a YM message to tell me where she hid my present.
sephirothtan: there?
sephirothtan: Oops, seem like u sleeping ho.... or not in now?
sephirothtan: Dear MZ, first of all, just wanna said, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you, i think i m not the first to say this but... haha, i don want to be the last
sephirothtan: and, I got a present for you
sephirothtan: first, sorry that I open you box beside your table, coz I need to put your present into the box
sephirothtan: so, just open the box between the color box and your table, it should be the box on your left..... and you will see a white color plastic bag under the black one... the white color thing, is your 21 birthday present from me and ting en.... happy birthday

Between Bdays in Study Week [edited]

It's a recapturing of what happened during my study week.

• Monday night, after library-ing in the night shift, it's one of Sweet's friend, Hoay Ling's Bday.
• Tuesday night, after library-ing in the night shift too, it's Seng Kuang's & Bryant's Bday.
• Wednesday night, after library-ing in the morning shift pulak~

It's.. uhm... not exactly mine and Sweet's Bday; cuz it's like 1 more week to Sweet's Bday and 2 more weeks to MY Bday... but... but... those new dear friends of mine... aww... i'm so touched whenever i think about it... they... they... they celebrated our Bdays together... see.. aren't they sweet... they put their exams the first priority rather than our real Bdays!!... *Ah-hem* sorry, throat hurts. Back to the track. Even the cakes are sweet! 2 LoVeLY heart-shaped... with different flavours, chocolate & orange (or at least tat's what i think it is.)
Anyway, Sweet said he planned mine, but never knew his friends planned his. He got a surprise; i got a DOUBLE surprise. The seafood meal in Umbai wasn't as cheap as i expected... so i wanna take the opportunity to...

see... aren't they cuTe.. Josh & Joleen *teases*

THANX TO ALL MY NEW FOUND FRIENDS

Mooncake Festival 2005

There's something i forgot to mention in the previous post...

---> Mooncake Festival <---

Last year's celebration was different from this year's way of celebration.
This year is a little bit special. Not that i had in mind of Sweet, but of celebrating it in the Bukit Beruang Hill. Went up the hill about 10.30pm with 6 of us in the gang, hand in hand with a lantern each. Those steep climbs are rewarding, they provide the best view you can get in Bukit Beruang. I've already seen the evening view before, they were great; but the night view was MAGNIFICIENT!!! Compared with the stars up at the sky... ahh.. you wouldn't want to look up, you'll prefer to look down.. at the twilights of the night time scenery. Why? Because there isn't a single star~ There is a big, bright, round moon... without stars.. =D

Lantern & the Night view

And we had a mooncake-in-candle!

Flawed Template

I tried to put a video link. But my blog template frame got adjusted because the video frame is eating a big portion of the side link. Tried to adjust the frame alignment by myself, but things went from bad to worse. Gave up. Planned to change the whole template. Found a nice musical one by incolite07, with the title 'A Pocket Full of Stars'. I rated it 4/5. After implementing it in my own blog, flaws were founded. The 'Post' can't link through. Tried alot of trials & errors for afew days, results the same. Fruitless. Futile. Gave up *again*.
Now, back to my previous template. Boring, but at least workable. =D

Flawed~

Couz's Attire II - Feedback

My couz wore other outfits of her own...
*sniff sniff* ='(
tissue pleease.....

Couz's Attire

My cousin was asking me through YM to see whether will I be at home tomorrow afternoon. I asked her why the importance of it and told her that I'm having my Business Ethics (BET 2014) presentation from 8.30am until afternoon.. only God knows when. She was like, darn! I asked her why *again* She says, "Nothing lar.. just thinking of asking you to be my fashion-consultant-for-the-day before going to my colluege's wedding dinner in Kluang."

ME?? A fashion consultant??!!! Hhmm....

"Well, yeah.. you. I need one consultant to check on my attire tomorrow. I don't want to appear abit of appalling."

Err.. Hell, NO WAY! Though i'm darn low profile, i still need to keep a good impression on my fashion.

"So, what do you say? Wanna help me?"

Ok. Sure. I wanna keep my profile safe. But i'll not be free tomorrow, so I have to dig into our wardrobes today. Coming back then?

"Of course! See you in a sec!"

So you see, I have a good fashion sense in the eyes of my cousin. Might be not to my friends, which they might consider me as only a so-so, but to my cousin, I AM!!! So darn happy about it. I danced in my room for a few minutes.. then back to my pc. Oh, ok, u've got me. I'm just exagerating.But I did felt happy.
When i used to stay in EP, on every special occasion that my housemates will be attending, they will for sure ask for my assistance in choosing the right attire. I'm not bragging about my fashion sense or whatsoever, but I do appreciate them for giving me the chance to feel what it's like to be either Donatella Versace or Zang Toi.

Although my attire to campus was more to a jeans and a good looking top, some other times even just a baby-t, i've always admired those girls who have the courage to wear minis to campus. Not that i'm jealous of their skinny stork-like legs, (hey! I DO have nice legs okaay, shape-able ones like the Papermate-liquidpaper sort.. nice long-ovel thighs and cylindered shins...), but i admired their bravery to break the rules of wearing a skirt 6 inches above the knee.
And also admired those who have the nerve to wear a 3/4 length leotards with flair skirts and baggy t-shirt.. i'm not going to elaborate more, just use your own imagination people. It's more to the Japanese Street-fashion style. OMG!!! Is the Harajuku-style going to invade the MMU too??!
OOooo.. never mind that.

Finally, my couz agreed to settle on her own pastel-green 3/4 sleeved shirt with wide scoop, my knee-length black skirt, a pair of black heels, a black handbag, a big single 5-petal-crystal-flowered necklace, and a pair of matching earrings. I suggested abit of some light nude make up with light pink blusher and some light sheer pink lipgloss. Eyeshadows will be on light-earth-brown tones.

I set my own Rule of Thumb when i'm on my fashionista-mood:
For every clothes, there will be a match. When it does not fit you, it might be only two considerations: the colours, or the cuttings. Never ever blame the fashion. Make your OWN fashion!
