I just got a mail in my inbox from the SPCA....

Here's the story of jasmine the greyhound. well maybe not all dogs are bad after all.

In 2003, police in Warwickshire , England , opened a garden shed and found a whimpering, cowering dog. It had been locked in the shed and abandoned. It was dirty and malnourished, and had clearly been abused.

In an act of kindness, the police took the dog, which was a Greyhound female, to the nearby Nuneaton Warwickshire Wildlife Sanctuary, run by a man named Geoff Grewcock and known as a willing haven for Animals abandoned, orphaned or otherwise in need.

Geoff and the other sanctuary staff went to work with two aims to restore the dog to full health, and to win her trust. It took several weeks, but eventually both goals were achieved.

They named her Jasmine, and they started to think about finding her an adoptive home.

But Jasmine had other ideas. No-one remembers now how it began, but she started welcoming all Animal arrivals at the sanctuary. It wouldn't matter if it was a puppy, a fox cub, a rabbit or, any other lost or hurting Animal, Jasmine would peer into the box or cage and, where possible, deliver a welcoming lick.

Geoff relates one of the early incidents. "We had two puppies that had been abandoned by a nearby railway line. One was a Lakeland Terrier cross and another was a Jack Russell Doberman cross. They were tiny when they arrived at the centre and Jasmine approached them and grabbed one by the scruff of the neck in her mouth and put him on the settee. Then she fetched the other one and sat down with them, cuddling them."

"But she is like that with all of our animals, even the rabbits. She takes all the stress out of them and it helps them to not only feel close to her but to settle into their new surroundings.

"She has done the same with the fox and badger cubs, she licks the rabbits and guinea pigs and even lets the birds perch on the bridge of her nose."

Jasmine, the timid, abused, deserted waif, became the animal sanctuary's resident surrogate mother, a role for which she might have been born. The list of orphaned and abandoned youngsters she has cared for comprises five fox cubs, four badger cubs, 15 chicks, eight guinea pigs, two stray puppies and 15 rabbits.

And one roe deer fawn. Tiny Bramble, 11 weeks old, was found semi-conscious in a field. Upon arrival at the sanctuary, Jasmine cuddled up to her to keep her warm, and then went into the full foster mum role. Jasmine the greyhound showers Bramble the Roe deer with affection and makes sure nothing is matted.

"They are inseparable," says Geoff "Bramble walks between her legs and they keep kissing each other. They walk together round the sanctuary. It's a real treat to see them."

Jasmine will continue to care for Bramble until she is old enough to be returned to woodland life. When that happens, Jasmine will not be lonely. She will be too busy showering love and affection on the next Orphan or victim of abuse.

From left, Toby, a stray Lakeland dog; Bramble, orphaned Roe deer; Buster, a stray Jack Russell; a dumped rabbit; Sky, an injured barn owl; and Jasmine with a Mothers heart doing best what a caring Mother would do... Such is the order of God's Creation.

i was bitten by a dog.

on friday.

the wound still hurts. but not so much anymore.

it happened all so fast... one minute it was a happy little dog, the next second it bit me.

***

okay, well, it was not a happy 'little' dog... but a big bad mutt. maybe it's my fault because I wasn't being careful. it's just that i can't imagine a dog biting me, you know?... because that would mean it's a bad dog, wouldn't it? i mean aren't all dogs supposed to be nice? wasn't it supposed to be my best friend?

so i let my guard down. i let it sniffed my hand, thinking like all the other dogs i knew, it would start licking, get my scent, and knew that i was safe, a friend. Then it'll be a friend in return.

Apparently it didn't turn out this way.

It probably just thought what is this stupid girl doing, putting her hand in front of me like that? her hand's such a good piece of meat. Hmm... *drool uncontrollably* maybe i'll just take a bite *evil snigger* and *chomp!*

Luckily I managed to pull my hand away in time so the damage wasn't as bad as it should be. Yeah, the wound looked horrible at first. Three jagged lines at the base of my middle and ring fingers on my right hand. The wound was purple, swollen and oozing blood. Not a pretty sight. Very icky in fact. It might have hurt alot but I wasn't aware of the pain because I was just shocked. The dog actually bit me! How could it? It looked so adorable! That day, the dog not only bit away a few pieces of skin cells and some flesh, but also my inherent trust in dogs and my belief that all dogs are nice..

I thought it was the cutest and nicest dog I've seen, with its nice white coat of fur and strong body... so perhaps I was just too blind to see the signs that were there... he was a different type from the other dogs in the pet shop, and plus, he was separated from the other dogs in a great big metal cage. maybe he's an alcoholic dog, or a chain smoking dog, or a compulsive liar doggie. or a psychopatic mutt. watever it is, the other dogs avoided him like the plague.

The Indonesian maid in the shop at that time didn't even offer help. No one was there to help me and I had to nurse my wound myself. I was upset and hoped that someone would help me but no... somehow I knew what to do... I put the wound under running water and washed it with soap to get rid of all bacteria, viruses or whatever, and just let it dry. It hurts a lot but I just ignored the pain and went on with my activities as usual.

The last time I looked (a few seconds ago haha) the wound seems to be healing well, and now it's nothing more than 6 tiny scabs on pinkish flesh. My trust in dogs though, will need a few more days to be restored. Anyways, it's my own misjudgement and my peanut brains that made a tiny part of my hand turn into dog food.

!i will be more careful in the future!

and maybe I should also get a tetanus shot, just in case.

oh today's actually Kenneth's birthday! Happy 19th!! ^-^

2009-04-23T09:59:00.000-07:00

omigosh my manicure is like totally gone... all chipped and corroded by super glue... *sniff sniff* cuz I was doing the Rube Goldberg project the day before.. and my fingers was covered with super glue... not a nice feeling i can tell u +.+

There I am... sticking stuff......

***

Anyways, here's a quaint Durian bag I saw in Petaling Street while I was there with Reen last Saturday. Cute huh?

And here's a cute t-shirt... U jump I jump.... U Pin I Pin... okay sorry i'm the lamest... anyways... it reminds me of Pin... *sniff* Miss you Pin!!!

***

Today is really not a good day for me. I was so sleep-deprived I was practically a zombie... SO lazy to go to college... All I want to do is sleep... Still, I had to run up four flights of stairs cuz I was late for class... Panting furiously, I tried to go into the class as softly as possible, hoping not to distrupt the class... I was wondering to myself why Shang Khoon, Dian and the cool looking Indian dude were in my period... I thought they were period 5... Then I realised that I have actually arrived 10 mins early and walked into the wrong period... and there I was, thinking I was late. Apparently zombies have no sense of time...

Another embarassing incident happened in class. We were just starting to learn about polarizing lenses when Mr. Gary picked me to his subject for a hypothetical situation... "Assuming I was looking at Becky through a polarized lens..." all eyes in class were in my direction... then suddenly !!1%^&* (high pitched singing). It was actually my phone ringing and it was that annoying ringtone that I love... the chipmunks singing low low low low hehehe anyways I couldn't locate the phone and it just kept on ringing as I frantically rummaged through my bag. All the while, Mr. Gary was still going on about me and polarizing lenses. sigh..

I actually love this topic... all about light and waves... too bad I missed the front part tho cuz I was sick... So now I have to work extra hard to catch up... hmm...

stupiid... thnx for making me sick. *bluek*

~some random musings~

been awake for the whole night doing an assignment so my brain's a bit mushy... decided to blog a lil to release the pent-up lethargy.

Just suddenly thought about random stuff.. like, the worst thing in the world would be to get stuck in a relationship that is just... good. No ups and downs...

If its a bad relationship, at least there's an escape route i.e. breaking-up or if its a great relationship, then lucky u lah. But if its just merely good, it'll be stupendously boring... and you can't even dump the person, cuz there's no good solid reason to... You'll be stuck forever! and maybe you would be so comfortable being stuck, you wouldn't even know you're not living the best life you should be living... But maybe sometimes we wanna be in our comfort zone...

Hmm... another 'worse thing' is being middle class. You're not rich enough to live life luxuriously but yet you're not poor enough to complain so that people will give you sympathy.

It's the curse of being stuck in the middle... hmm...

Happy Earth Day!~

okies i admit that I didn't really do much for Mother Earth today, except for buying a cactus and a button badge saying 'I only date environmentalists' *lol* from the the Environmental Club's booth. Earth Day a bit low-key this year methinks. Personally, I'm so caught up in assignments and uni application matters I don't have the energy to do much fun stuff. I can't wait for May, when I'll finally have my freedom and lazy days ~

Today while I was driving to school, I saw a peculiar sight, a lengzhai in a toll booth. Usually toll booth attendants are aunties, uncles or scowling young people. Occasionally you'll get a sweet Malay girl who smiles at you but never before have I seen a cute guy inside a toll booth!!! Which is why i dropped my coins on the floor when he gave me back the change. *malunye...*

hehe poor thing... broke his arm~

he's a cute lil scot-chinese mix. a scotnese. from Sri KL. tho I hate that stupid school... but this lil lad is utterly adorable!!! *giggles*

speaking of Sri K.L. tho... today I saw the most stupid, absurdest thing in my life... I was driving home after college and had no choice but to pass by Sri K.L.. As usual it wuz super congested. I was wonderin why the cars are not moving... guess what? there was a driver in a Mercedez that parked right smack in the middle of the road to wait for its little master/mistress to come out. How selfish and stupid is that?!?!! really!

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD!

what the hell.

2009-02-25T10:15:00.000-08:00

2009-01-30T00:47:00.000-08:00

When I watched Mean Girls I thought it was so fun that they could have 4-way conversation on the phone. Like, super cool to have group chat on the phone rite! Therefore, I was pleasantly surprised/shocked/delighted when Grace called and I could hear like Cheryl's voice on the other line. Then Ben. Then Jenn. whoa. My 1st 5-way telephone conversation! I didn't know Malaysian phones could do this! *smiles with glee*

the conversation wasn't so gleeful tho. i guess there's tension as stress because presentation is next week...

2009-01-18T09:33:00.000-08:00

anyways. ICPU starts tmr! (for me) because i'm special. yup. life is a joke. anyways i'm two whole weeks behind. lotsa catching up to do. huuhuu~ i got gary allen as my physics teacher (!!) and everyone's been warning me. so scared! *shiver*

"...when you're a kid, you make wishes, sit back and do nothing and hope that some fairy godmother will grant you your wishes..."

juz saw this in lynn's blog just now.

this is so true for me, even now, altho i'm not a kid anymore *sigh* As I grow up I realise that my wishes have progressed from simpler things like

'i want ice-cream'

'i want to go out more often with my friends'

to bigger things like

'i want to get into xxx uni'

'i want to eat a lot but not get fat'

'i don't want to get heartbroken'.

and somehow, my wishes don't come true automatically anymore. Well, i guess bigger dreams need bigger effort to fulfill. *reli shud stop being lazy* But sometimes, although you work hard you don't get what you deserve. life's like that tho. so guess I'll just have to move on and forward to new things that awaits me! :)

2009 is just around the corner but frankly, i don't think i'm prepared for it. anyhows. hope all my wishes come true in the new year! ^-^

All super smart accountants *intimidated*

Day 1

i was late *sry guys*

being a totally patriotic girl *ahem ahem* i tried my best to show them malaysia's national treasure - our food!!!

so I was trying to look for the char siew fan tat's supposed to be famous. anyhows. we got lost and ended up eating chicken rice in jalan alor. *blueks* the worse part is tengkat tong shin, which is where the char siew fan place is located, is just besides jln. alor. I really dunno how i cud have missed it. ish.

next up... pavillion. this year's xmas deco is not that nice tho. nothin beats last year's one. i juz loved it. and we had the u-hu-hu cheesecakes at The Loaf. surprise, surprise, the cheesecakes are now very cheap liao. used to be 5 bucks per piece, now it's only 2.80. unfortunately. it downsized edi lah... but still, very yummy! ^-^

anyways.after pavillion... KLCC! where we had A&W!

fyi, there are no A&Ws in singapore at all *gasp* so naturally, the guys were excited and we ordered curly fries and root beer and ice-cream waffle! *happy*

you know, we malaysians dun care much bout A&W but wait till one day when it's gone....

haha

then we were baking under the sun to get photos of the twin towers.

so hot. can die wei~

unfortunately for the guys, their tour guide (yours truly) only know 2 things bout her turf.

food.

and shopping malls.

(but takkan i bring them to tugu negara or the lake gardens?)

anyways. so next stop was another mall... midvalley!

they have very nice xmas deco this year!

still i like klcc's tree d best. so adorable!!!

left them to their own devices after that because of the evening's U.N. debate at Impiana.

such an irresponsible tour guide. sigh~

Day 2

sigh

late. again.

went to one utama.

wee~ i love shopping malls.

unfortunately i got lost on the way.

oneU is jinxed!!!

i always get lost on d way there.

so i made some frantic phone-calls for help.

thought of all the P.J. people.

but lynn's in spore.

and others.. their phones were off

so i called carmen and a guy picked up

i tot it was joey and i was talking to him. but actually

wrong number. swt swt swt... but eventually, we found our way!

walked around

had our lunch..

then went off..

they went to kuala selangor to see fireflies.

hehe i've never seen the fireflies before tho. shud have tagged along ler.. hmm.

Day 3

hat-trick. for 3 days straight i'm late. I really did get out earlier from home.

stupid traffic lights. the one at the intersection between pudu+loke yew+bukit bintang+the way to the palace. stupiiid jam. anyways picked them up from puduraya and its off to sunway lagoon. woohoo~

while they were frolicking under the sun in sunway lagoon, i went to watch BOLT with marissa! BOLT is so cute. wee~ everyone go watch BOLT. its ridonculus!

and the pigeons. they are so funniiie~

anyways. ZhiPeng's phone actually dropped out when they were on d pirate ride thingey. wonder how it survived the fall. hmm.. but although it sustained some scratches and bruises, it still works. wah a very tough and resilient phone! *touch wood* but dunno whether my nokia can survive such a drop. anyways. Can imagine the look on everyone's face when the phone dropped doooown. but anyhows. poor phone... so ke lian.

after that, went to makan the famous cendol at ss15! =D

hehe guess wat? one whole year, one whole year!!! at taylors and i've never even tried the cendol before. its sooo near college. hehe well, better late than never.

and it actually tastes not bad *grins*

the rojak is famous too... but i dun really eat rojak...

erm. except the one in sitiawan, near AiYin's house.

aiya. forgot to bring them to Bawang Merah to eat Malaysian kuih. oops.

Dinner was at the famous Dai Chow in Petaling Street, the one near the longan stall. remember I had tuition upstairs last time. such a long, long, long time ago. *reminiscing*

anyways. we had sing chow mai, hor funn and nga poh loh shue funn. like omg. the claypot loh shue funn was really really pedas! full of cili padi. luckily got the longan water. *phew*

after dinner, we had to rush to Sentral for them to board the train. luckily we made it!~ everyone thought we were out of time but you know lah.. msian trains... never leave on time. walao.. wasted our efforts... rushing and rushing.

actually, it was fun being a 'tour guide' hehehe though i'm always late and constantly getting lost. *eeps*

hehe hope they come again =) but maybe they should consider a better guide next time lolx

p.s. thanks for the chocs! *gan dong*

math test, irish movie and fuel price hike

2008-06-04T22:53:00.000-07:00

Mummy fetched me to college yesterday. It’s been awhile since this happened… January, to be precise. Although driving gives me a lot of freedom, I think that it’s nice to get fetched around once in a while…

So, I was holed up in the library’s silent zone all morning trying to do as much math as possible… With the Advanced Functions test getting nearer and nearer, I was getting a little nervous. Perhaps I shouldn’t have stayed so long at Bryan’s BBQ yesterday. With all the frantic cramming, 1 p.m. arrived in a blink of the eye.

Entering the exam room was a wee bit nerve-racking… but I was more excited actually. I just wanna quickly get over it.

After the exams, I suddenly realised I have no car to go home with. Luckily Christopher’s mom tumpang-ed me to the KTM station. So thankful… if not I would probably have died walking all the way from Taylors to the Subang Jaya station.

It was my first time taking the KTM from subang to KL… the ticket was so cheap! It was only RM 1.60 for such a long journey. I also passed by a lot of scenery and places that I have not seen before… It was a pleasant ride. It was dark and raining hard outside. I love being in a train when it’s raining… makes me pensive…

Met up with Funn Funn at Pavilion for movie and makan…

We watched an Irish movie, Once, and I actually knew nothing about it before this but it turned out to be good movie… and we had our mashed potatoes delivered to us! Pavilion’s GSC must be the bestest cinema ever… they will deliver food right to your seat! *wee* that’s why I like going there hehe

So after the movie we were hungry so we went to find makan… I suggested we just eat at Food Republic but Funn Funn objected… so we were there sitting and thinking of places to eat dinner… anyways I think I got conned there lor… wasted my money on some overpriced honeydew sago thingey… the honeydew was not fresh and the sago was a bright icky green…

After rejecting Food Republic, Bon Ton, Jalan Alor and the Lot10 food court, which was really, really quiet (a far cry from Food Republic), we ended up in Dome, where we had pie and espreki… and a scone.

I took the LRT home with Funn Funn…. It seemed like aeons ago when my parents always had to fetch me home from the Maluri station..

On the way home, dad confirmed that the petrol price had indeed increased to $2.70 per litre… EVERY single petrol station we passed by was packed with cars. It was amazing! It is the first time I witness frenzy of such scale… The petrol stations were totally FULL of cars!!! But isn’t it silly? I think those people lining up for petrol waste more petrol lor… cuz have to wait so long in line… bet some people’s car will run out of petrol before they even reach the pump… But then we can’t really blame them… this petrol price hike is quite steep… it’ll add up to about 20++ bucks more for a full tank for my car… sigh… have to save money liao…

mood: contemplative + slightly anxious about the fuel price
chomping on: last night's leftover Anzac cookie
listening to: 'Falling Slowly’ ONCE OST

happy

2008-06-02T10:42:00.000-07:00

I was pleasantly surprised today because Qian Wen, my tutee gave me a gift today! She handed me a brown paper bag after our English 4C finals and I was quite excited to know what I got...

*taadaa!*

It's a purse! hehe so cute! Although yellow's not my favourite color...

I felt really touched cuz she's giving me stuff... I mean it's my responsibility as her tutor to help her with her work and things and I didn't really expected to be rewarded for it... weee but i like the purse!!! and I was just thinking of getting a new one!

I'm so glad she's my tutee and this tutoring thingey has allowed me to get to know her better as a friend too... ^-^ and when Mr. K said that her test results have improved it made me really happy! so sad tho that she's gonna graduate this sem... but she'll be going to Sunway so maybe we can still hang out...

School Stuff!

2008-06-02T07:28:00.000-07:00

Just some of the random events happening in college recently...

First... the dodgeball game!

I dunno who organised this thingey... just saw it as I came back from lunch... the only participant that I kenal is Mr. Mike Myer, the chemistry teacher... anyways didn't get to stay and watch for long 'cuz I had World Issues. I could not afford to be late 'cuz one more late/absent and I'll be kicked out of ICPU *gasp!* luckily my attendance list starts from zero in the new sem...

***

Next... the food fair organised by the International Students Club.

It was held the same day as the Bio finals. I wonder why they choose this day to hold this event. Everyone was on holiday, at least most of the Pre-U students, that is. SAM is having their holidays and ICPU and A-levels are having their major exams... they should have done it on a school day... then everyone can participate... anyways...

Bought 10 bucks worth of vouchers and spent it on cream puffs, some korean food that i've never eaten before and indian candies which omg i totally, absolutely love!!! It gave me a sugar rush and made me hyper when I ate them before watching Iron Man with funn funn that evening hehe

So here are some shots!

Setting up the stalls..

It's Kham Nu in front of the Myanmar food stall...

Okay, it's the korean food... i think it's made from glutinous rice. Maybe a variation of 'nian gao'

Pre-chilli-sauced...

*splat* the korean girl smearing the thingey with chilli sauce...

*taadaa* all ready to be eaten!

verdict: tasted quite good ^-^

Bittersweet

2008-05-27T07:16:00.000-07:00

Phew! Finally finished my World Issues Seminar Presentation today!!! *cheer!* After forgoing sleep yesterday and slaving on it for hours (ahem... procrastinating till the last min again... must kick this habit!), I'm sort of glad it's over! I thought I didn't present too badly today, so am rather pleased with myself. :) However, there was a tiny glitch cuz the computer in class couldn't run my videos. But mr. K said I could try again tomorrow... so it's okays... Anyways, hoped I enlightened my fellow classmates to the plight of the child refugees!

I actually had a lot of fun on this assignment and I learnt many, many new things about child refugees...

I love all these final projects! *beams* Hmm... Dunno why Ms. Fikar didn't want to do it for bio... I just found out from Daphne today that last semester, the bio kids had a fun project involving making lemonade and letting everyone try it. sigh. Hope next sem I have more fun stuff to do.. Finishing this seminar presentation means all my projects and stuff are done. Feel glad and relieved.. but its a bittersweet feeling 'cuz I actually love doing all these stuff and also, it means our sem's ending soon. *deep sigh*

Recently, I've become more reflective and maybe emo abit bit... maybe 'cuz everyone's leaving me!!! Makes me realize that I probably don't appreaciate those people that matters to me enough... like, should have spent more time with my family and good friends... and now mummy's in Brunei... feeling a lil upset... I MISS YOU MUMMY!!! COME HOME NOW!!! I know I'm already a grown-up (sort of, hehe) but still I hate it when I'm separated from my mom. sigh. *sniff sniff*

PIN I MISS YOU TOO!!! All the best for A2!

anyways. I just realised today that time passes by SOOOO fast!!! Can you believe it, we only have 2 more days and then this semester will be over! *gasp* But it felt like just yesterday when it was January and I just joined ICPU. this is SO SCARY! time is just like fine sand flowing away from my cupped hands... it's like I just can't catch hold of it and before I know it... it's all gone..

on a totally unrelated note, i saw some lil kids, maybe 12 or 13 distributing pamphlets outside college when I arrived this morning. It is totally unethical!! How can they ask little kids to do such work? Well... maybe the kids need the money... but then again...

p.s. LMF i'm so sorry I postponed our outing... again! reli overwhelmed with stuff to do lah... sorry!

Hehehehehe... never fails to put a smile on my face... pin and voon trying to imitate nigahiga hehehe ^-^ unfortunately you can hear my stupid laughing sound... like, i dunno how to edit it out wei...

Just Another Day in My Life...

2008-05-22T07:43:00.000-07:00

I arrived earlier than usual at school today and it was perfect timing. The morning madness that is the Sri-KL jam have not started and the college students have not arrived, leaving me with ample parking space along the stretch of the road on the outskirts of the SS15 housing area.

I was glad. For the past few days (cuz i overslept and therefore am always late) I had to walk a kazillion miles from my car to college because of the lack of parking space. totally hate it.

I decided to go for bio period 4 with Navinder today and so I had two free periods which translates to roughly 2 and 1/2 hours of free time. Of course this precious free time was utilised in a very constructive manner.

I finally settled my debt with the library and got my account unbarred. Apparently I borrowed some books a few eons ago and those library books that were languishing on my desk have been quietly generating income for the library. ish. maybe those books are mad at me for neglecting and forgetting them and making them lonely. 50++ bucks gone just like that... effing sam tong. *sulks*

After that, being such a good and nerdy lil kid, I decided to spend the rest of my time doing my bio essays. Of course if I wasn't distracted by minesweeper, I'd probably finish all of them. But as of now, I still have two more essays to go. sigh. Can't help it. I'm a minesweeper addict. I love playing minesweeper at school. totally addicted. I don't quite like the new version of minesweeper in my laptop with the vista OS. Kononnye wanna make it more canggih but it just doesn't feel right. As they say, if it ain't broke...

Mrs. Tan has finished the Advanced Functions syllabus and hence nothing happened in class. Bio was similarly nondescript because Ms. Fikar did not teach. Instead, she spent almost the whole hour trying to convince the period 4 people, the non-believers, that evolution is something that might be true. I can't comprehend why do we even have this controversy in class. Omigosh wake up people!!! $%^&*(#$%^&* I'm so amazed that people still think evolution is a myth!!! Like, I'm totally gobsmacked. We are evolving every minute, every second. Even babies evolved from a single, tiny cell, that grew into a zygote, then a foetus, then a baby... yadda yadda yadda... all in 9 months... so I don't get what's so impossible about humans evolving from bacteria a million zillion years ago. Anyways I was bored in class cuz I already believed in evolution so it was like preaching to the converted. And I was starving like hell. I forgot to eat.

Anyhows. World Issues was a bit more fun. There was a surprise pop-quiz on past seminar presentations, I got a beautiful, hand-made, invitation card to Sophia's birthday bash and Mr. K had apparently mastered the wonderful linguistical art-form that is the Malaysian accent. Quite authentic... can almost pass off as a real Malaysian liao. Also, me and Ee Von dear tried teaching him the 'han yu pin yin' but wasn't quite successful. *shrugs* Anyways the seminar presentations were still going on and it was Ken's turn today. A little messy and confusing though. However, Ken baked cake and I was freakin hungry so I sapu-ed the whole box. So cuz he is my saviour i shall say his presentation was very good. *beams*

then Mr. K had to join the rest of the Canadian teachers on a trip to the income tax place and he had to leave. Thank god we only had time for one person to present today. Now I have more time to prepare my own presentation. Anyways, cuz Mr. K is away, English is cancelled too. Usually, everyone will cabut but we had to prepare for our Scene Study for Death of a Salesman tomorrow (scared! hehe) so everyone stayed back to rehearse.

Acting is really hard, imho. You definitely can't do a shoddy job. There is actually so, so, so much more to acting than you think. You have to think of the character's motivation, their objectives, their mannerisms, etc etc etc and really BE the character. Unfortunately, I got the part of Ben, an old, distinguished gentleman. Totally so not me. *sighs* Mr. K was always pointing out that I'm too Becky, that I had my hand on my waist, I was standing like a girl, I was playing with my necklace etc etc I had to take off my heels and really be like Ben.

But the past few days rehearsals with Mr. K had been enlightening and thought-provoking. I think I really learnt a lot.. I definitely wish I can be like Mr. K who can just simply act out any part. Well, he is a drama major afterall, but still... Anyways. I guess playing Ben who is so totally different from me makes me very self-concious... Like, I'm not even the correct size for Ben. I'm tinier than Punit, who is Willy, who in the play, is supposed to by tinier than Ben. Anyhows. Like, I can't be Ben because I'm so self-concious. Then I'm just Becky pretending to be Ben. Hmm... I would probably do better if I played 'The Woman'... the slutty whore from Boston... *chuckles* I think Zoe's talent is under-utilised lah... she just has a tiny part as Linda when her acting chops are so geng. so sayang.

Anyways. after Mr. K's pep-talk/feedback on our rehearsals yesterday, I finally realised the magnitude of this assignment. Like omigosh it's a real assignment! *gaaaaasp!!!* As Mr. K correctly pointed out, we might think that this Scene Study thingey is just for fun but it is actually a serous assignment and has quite a high weightage and it needs deep thinking and analysing and ............... ugh. well... better memorise my lines.

We camcorder-ed ourselves today. Yuck. I am not doing too well. I keep on fiddling with my hair and my hand gestures are like so pondan. sigh...

hiatus

2008-05-22T07:35:00.000-07:00

seems like a long time since i last blogged... must've got sucked up in all the busy-ness and neglected to let myself do the things i like to do, like reading, blogging and just chilling... sometimes i get so caught-up in life, chasing things that i think are important and accidentally forget to treasure things that are truly meaningful to me.

It seems like i just entered college and now the semester's ending... Plus, my dear friends, pin, voon, mein etc etc are graduating soon and are starting a new phase of their lives... it really makes me realise how time flies...

April's Fool

2008-04-01T07:48:00.000-07:00

So after bio class I was sauntering to the Web to finish my unfinished work, filled with dread because both my English and World Issues thesis are totally not done and everything's due today. *sigh* Suddenly someone shouted that all Mr. K's class are cancelled today because he is sick. And although I was concerned about my teacher's health condition, I erupted into cheers just like the rest of his students who were in the corridor. I think all of us were relieved, probably cuz we had not done the assignments assigned to us. *guilty* Only carmen was upset because she stayed up till two in the morning to finish everything.

However, this is too good to be true. I bet it's a prank to fool everyone. Maybe Mr. K is capable of such humour... so I was torn between believing the rumours and running off to chill or bust my butt off doing my assignments. I was very hun luan and in the end, decided to check it out for sure. True enough, there was really a notice on D14 stating that all classes are cancelled... but then, anyone could have posted it right? So I was fretting and worrying...

At last, we went to the office just to make sure. Okay turns out... it is for real. So I got to go home at 12! wee ^-^

Also cuz I was hungry I had the ramlee burger near our school... (actually its opposite INTI) Anyways... its like the bestest ramlee burger ever!!! love it!!! I think the burger man is an award-winning ramlee burger maker. Like, for real. There's a sticker that says so on his stall. Some anugerah burger...

Anyhows... my April's Fool Day was kinda uneventful... sigh... it was just like a normal day, except that I got to go home early... Well, I thought it was really just gonna pass by like that but luckily Kin Meng called me at night, suggesting we prank dear lil Coreen. *fast-forward* we succeeded in pranking her and I was mighty pleased with myself because it is my most successful prank ever. *evil laugh* BUT we had hurt her poor feelings. T.T

SORRY PRINCESS COREEN!!! YUAN LIANG WO MEN BA!!!

anyways coreen got mad and I was feeling super-duper guilty because my baby sis, who for dunno wat reasons like Coreen a lot, kept on nagging and chastisizing me for pranking Coreen. I was seriously worried and sent lotsa sms to beg for forgiveness. OMIGOD I'M SO EVIL.... SORRY PRINCESS COREEN.... CANT BELIEVE I WOULD CON SUCH A PURE, INNOCENT FAIRY... SORRY....

check out what Her Highness Princess Fairy Coreen has to say....

p.s.

It's Backwards day today!

also we got our DNA results back! wee~ (oops I haven't blog about Saturday's DNA workshop hehe shall do so soon!)

and HAPPY APRIL'S FOOL EVERYONE!!! =D

2008-03-31T05:42:00.000-07:00

I was greeted by wei mein and pin's shocked + appalled face when I reach college today... apparently they felt that me in my secondary school uniform is an icky sight indeed. sigh. hehe anyways it's Dress Up Week and today's Back-To-School Day ^-^

And does anyone notice Subang is sooooo hot!?!?! *grumble grumble*

i'm feeling emo and worn out today. sigh. maybe its the weather. or not. no mood to do my assignments.

cheese cake!

2008-03-29T23:39:00.000-07:00

A while back I kept on seeing a girl with a pink wig dressed in a pink yukata walking around giving out flyers... I was totally intrigued and super-duper curious! I tried going close to her, hoping she would hand me a flyer too but she never did choi me. hmph. Anyhows no matter, 'cuz I managed to find out what's all it all about by myself *beams*

Okay... actually The Loaf's now selling its yummylicious cheesecakes in various flavours and they call it the 'U-hu-hu' cheesecakes. Why the weird name I don't know. Maybe they think its cutesy. *shrugs* So they have all these girls in colourful wigs and cute pink yukatas doing the promotion. Anyways, they have lotsa flavours like durian, longan, nestum, milo, blueberry, kiwi, mango, coffee, strawberry etc etc etc

I love The Loaf's cheesecakes but at 5 bucks a pop, nowadays it can only be an occasional indulgence lor... Aiya with 5 bucks I can makan the china aunty's handmade ramen at AC and still get change leh.. *gasp* oh no.. i've become more and more kiam siap these days... eat oso need to budget liao... I need mo muh-nay!!! ($.$) buuuurrr.... okay okay i digress. So anyhows. When I was there with Coreen recently, we decided to give these new flavour-flavour cheesecakes a try ^-^

verdict? quite nice lah ^-^

green tea flavour! hehe my favourite flavour ^^

The Best Chicken Ever!!!

2008-03-29T21:55:00.000-07:00

whoa its like a kazillion years since i've last blogged @.@ since then, the B.N. has suffered a huge blow to their ego and their dominance in the Malaysian political scene, our country's future seems a little brighter, and I have grown a lil fatter. huuhuu~

Anyways I have discovered the best tasting chicken ever in the world! It's called XXL chicken chop or something and it originated from Taiwan's ShiLin pasar malam ^-^ I get it from the Shilin Kiosk in Pavilion and Pyramid but I think you can get it in other malls too!

nice!

me and my sis cam-whoring at Food Republic in Pavilion, where we got the chicken =D

Like, omg i reli love the chicken! hehe HEY to the people who sells these chickens (if you're reading this lol) please please please sponsor me!!! I'll put lotsa photos of your chicken on my blog and you can give me free chicken for the rest of my life!!! deal?? I'll even pose with ur chicken!!!

------->
haha although i look a bit bai chi in this photo but unfortunately its the only one where its only me and the chicken... and i actually had chicken crumbs all over my mouth, but of course to save me the humiliation I edited it off lolx maybe I should have left it there to show my intense liking for the yummy chicken! sponsor me! sponsor me! gimme free chicken!!! gimmeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~

Kawad!

2008-03-08T05:40:00.000-08:00

Last Wednesday was SAB's annual kawad comp!!! I was so excited about going as I missed the one last year.

Although classes usually end at 3.30, I was able to leave class at 2p.m. as Mr. K had so kindly allow me to go back to SAB to watch the kawad competition ^-^ Unfortunately, although I left earlier, I was still later than wei mein who used the NPE instead of Federal. ISH.

Anyhow, we (me, pin n kai jia) still made it in time for the kawad comp. ^-^ It's so nice to be back in school! The atmosphere was very 're nao' and everyone is excited! There were a lot of juniors from last year's batch who came back and also some guys from our year like Roger, Chen, Darwin, Suren, Fook Loy, Kim Ross etc etc etc

Luckily all of the teachers can remember my name, although some were confused as to which year I belong to haha but happy to see some teachers like Cikgu Shahbudin etc. although I din get to see Pn. Khairunnissa.

IMHO, the best performance would have to be the Scouts, although they didn't win.

The final ranking is PBSM in 3rd place, Guides in 2nd and KRS, first (no comment).

The AFTERMATH! PBSM crying... I agree with Pin that PBSM will always cry after kawad ^-^ If we win 1st place then it'll be tears of joy... if not then everyone will be so sad... T-T Although we din't win this time, hope the squad will win in Zone Pudu, if they get to go ^-^ I guess why people cry after kawad is 'cuz they have put all their efforts and their hearts into it! So semangat! But one of the juniors-who-shall-not-be-named was imho, overly semangat. shouting and crying like some deranged woman who got jilted by her boyfriend. haha okay maybe i'm exaggerating.

Isn't this little girl so cute and tiny? =D

Also brought funn-funn some cupcakes as an early birthday surprise! ^-^

Tupai

2008-03-08T04:58:00.000-08:00

Since I'm eating McD's banana pie now, I'm reminded of the tupai joke Liz/Vishul told me when we were in McDs a long time ago. Someone keep on ordering tupais and it frustrated the cashier. But rupa-rupanye its like, the person wanted 'two pies'. Okay. *cold*

But I saw some real tupais last week! Last Sunday we had replacement class and it was my first time in Alliance Francaise on a Sunday. omg It was sooo quiet because there is no classes on Sundays and I was the first to arrive and therefore the only one there, except the Indian uncle, who I think is the caretaker of the place. Anyways I parked my car underneath the tree and was surprised to see many squirrels on the tree! There were so near me I could almost touch them!!! I think there's a whole family of about 5-6 squirrels!! *squeals* But when I wanted to take photos they quickly scurry up the tree to the branches which are higher up. *sigh*

February the 29th

2008-03-08T04:07:00.000-08:00

On Feb the 29th, Sofia organised a belated birthday thingey for Alex, whose birthday is on the 29th of January. So it's like his 18th + 1 month birthday. Haih... kids nowadays... any reason is a cause for celebration. *shakes head* =D So anyways, we were supposed to meet at 12 and I was so frantic 'cuz by the time I reached 1U it was already like 12.15. But my 'gan cheong'-ness was wasted as I was actually the first to arrive... while waiting for everyone I shopped around and bought a cute pink hairband at diva! *smiles*

After I got bored walking around, I decided to wait for everyone inside Italiannies. But they took a while so I occupied myself with eating the free! focaccia bread (which was really good!! *yum*). Too bad it made me feel a wee bit full to fully appreciate the main meal haha Anyways, everyone arrived at like 1 p.m.-ish and to pass time, we took lotsa photos while waiting for the food to arrive.

Group Photo!

(l-r) Emad, Sofia, Cho, Souroush, Alex, Me!, Sharid and Timothy.

The two smart guys!

Pasta!!!

The food is good and I love the juicy, fresh, succulent shrimps!!! ^-^

A teeny weeny baby crab inside Alex's clam *.*

After makan, it was time to blow the birthday (cup)cakes =D

After some shopping (girls) and playing pool (boys) we went to watch Vantage Point. It is already the second time for me, as I had already watched this movie on Kam Wai's birthday. The movie-goers in this cinema seem to be more boisterous than the ones in Times Square last time as everytime the scene rewinds back to 12.00 p.m. everyone here would clap and cheer and make a lot of noise *lol* There were also groans and after the movie there were complains that it was a sucky movie. I thought it was quite an entertaining movie tho ^^ but you have to suspend logic and common sense for a while. I mean come on lah dude! How can Dennis Quaid survive a car crash like that?!?! A humongous truck just rammed into the car and slam it against a building! =.='' anyways, with this second viewing, I found out the cool blue car is a chevrolet! wish I can have one!!! =D

After walking leisurely around and browsing through shops for an hour plus, we finally went home. There were some Paul Frank stuff on sale but I had already ran out of cash *sniff sniff* but the others got some flip-flops and stuff. Also, I discovered a nice Canadian brand, Roots. I think another shopping trip to OneU is in order.

Overall, it was a great day spent with my new friends! The only bad thing was Emad lost his money in the KTM on the way home. It was quite a lot of money and it made me feel real shitty that these kinda things keep on happening here. I'm sure it'll create a good impression of Malaysia. *bluek*

traffic jam!

2008-03-03T05:06:00.000-08:00

It was raining after school today and I was stranded at college till the rain stopped. Too bad it was almost 5 p.m. by that time and as expected the rush-hour jam had already started. Thankfully Ji Min was in the car to chat with me... If not I'll have to tolerate more than 2 hours worth of boredom on the road. Sigh.. I don't like jams... *grumble grumble*

another day in college...

2008-02-26T08:09:00.000-08:00

Just another day in college.. but it's a good day cuz I got around 74% for my Advanced Functions test. so happy... math is not my strongest subject so I must work harder!

and today's world issues class is fun because we learn about the Nature of Food and Poverty.

Say, in the Global Village, where all the world's population is represented by 100 villagers, we would have

31 sheeps & goats
23 cows, bulls and oxens
15 pigs
3 camels
2 horses, and
189 chickens

So actually the number of chickens on earth is double that of the number of humans...! and Mr. K said if you took all the ants in the world, they would weigh more than the whole human population!!! I mean how many millions of ants would it take to just equal my weight.. Imagine soooo many ants.... *yuck* dun like ants...

Anyways... back to what I learnt today...

at any one time in the Global Village,

60 people are always hungry
26 are severely undernourished
and only 24 people have enought to eat.

But actually there are no shortage of food on Earth... it's just that it's not divided equally. Then we started discussing about how we get adequate food although we don't expend much energy but the poor construction workers working on the inti building beside us work their butts off but don't get to eat so much. so cham.

In English we watched Hairspray the movie as part of Media Studies. It's my favourite movie so I find it really enjoyable. ish. How can Tracy kiss Zac Efron? *bluek* Anyways, we're watching this movie so we can understand the racial discrimination against the Black people in the 60s' I didn't even realise this musical is about that when I watched it in the cinema last time as I was so engrossed in all the songs and dances... I guess I am quite ignorant at times >.<

#1 SAB
One Friday a few weeks ago, I dropped by SAB for like, a while and saw my juniors kawading. So semangat! Hope everyone jia you and win the kawad competition!

Then I saw this pasted on the notice board in Funn funn's class...

First of all, I didn't know that form6-ers still need to do 'zhi re sheng' one and worse they will be 'punished' if they don't it! I dunno how they will punish them lo. I mean, technically form6-ers are grown-ups edi ma... takkan u wanna rotan them ? make them write lines? do the bur-pee thing? pull their ears? do star jumps? I think probably its denda money gua... funn funn please enlighten me.

Boggles my mind that people still have to do these duties. Most years I am either assistant monitor/monitor/treasurer or watever (I oso can't remember) so I had never had to do all those stuff *yay* don't like to do it ler... it's like so primary school-ish... But then, if no one does it then the class will be dirty and unorganised... so guess it is an neccessary evil.

Valentine's 2008

Not a very happy day cuz I have no boyfriend to celebrate with me. But it is an interesting day nevertheless. Some outrageous things in college include someone bringing a green snake as a V-day gift and a girl 'wrapping' herself up and presenting herself as a present to her boyfriend in front of his class.

Anyways I celebrated with Pin in the morning.

Green Tea Latte~

CNY 2008

Went to bai nian with the form6-ers. Visited a few houses and gambled =D

Some plant at hui moon's house...

Miscellaneous...
Some biji selasih that we used to make the Konyakku jelly. Looks like tadpoles ler.. so geli! brrrr... *shiver*

Kam Wai's Birthday

2008-02-26T05:48:00.000-08:00

Last friday we celebrated our head boy Kam Wai's bday! In the afternoon we went to watch Vantage Point in Times Square. I think got 12 people ler...

hehe so many tickets! we almost 'ba' the whole row ^^V

In the evening, I went to Pizza Hut for Kam Wai's birthday dinner with the rest of the form 6 gang + Kah Yau, the ex-form6. Technically, I'm ex-form6 too lor!! cuz I went for the orientation ma! =P Anyways... Although me and funn funn were like, 15-20 mins late for the dinner, surprisingly we were the earliest to arrive! hehe since we had nothing to do while waiting for everyone, the only logical thing to do was to start camwhoring. Anyways here's a pic of me with a brace-less funn funn.

Funn funn took out her braces last week and to commemorate this special event, she was given chewing gum by chun fei and xiao bai nian *jealous* maybe i shud get braces too. *bluek*

i like the pink GLAMatic gum!!! so pretty!

Kam Wai the birthday boy!

It is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hard to make choon keat smile... *aiyo*

I think in this photo choon keat looks like sin chan hahaha

Finally got one candid punye that has choon keat smiling..

Anyways, just wanna say... thanks kam wai for inviting me!!! =D hehe and thanks for belanja-ing the pizza!

My New Favourite Song

2008-02-18T08:05:00.000-08:00

Teardrops On My Guitar
-Taylor Swift

Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see
That I want and I'm needing everything that we should be
I'll be she's beautiful, that girl he talks about
And she's got everything that I have to live without

Drew talks to me, I laugh cause it's so damn funny
That I can't even see anyone when he's with me
He says he's so in love, he's finally got it right,
I wonder if he knows he's all I think about at night

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do

Drew walks by me, can he tell that I can't breathe?
And there he goes, so perfectly,
The kind of flawless I wish I could be
She'd better hold him tight, give him all her love
Look in those beautiful eyes and know she's lucky cause

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do

So I drive home alone, as I turn out the light
I'll put his picture down and maybe
Get some sleep tonight
He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough for me to break my heart
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
He's the time taken up, but there's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into..

Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see.

*sigh* such a beautiful song, no? but it's so sad *emo*

p.s. dunno why Taylor Swift puts the name Drew inside the song... I so don't wanna sing this song to Andrew lolx

(♥) sick?

2008-02-18T06:26:00.000-08:00

Stupidly pining for xxx and being super emo had weaken my immune system and made me susceptible to diseases. That explains the flu and the cough and the mild fevers. Then again it could have been the erratic weather.

Anyways... Dunno why these days I'm constantly exhausted and all I want to do is sleep, sleep and sleep. Feeling lazy and lethargic last Friday, I decided to skip both Mr. K's class to go home and sleep. But fate has other plans, as in the end I went to eat Hakka Mee and shopping at BB with Funn Funn and Kin Meng. Anyhows, since I skip class I needed an MC. So today I decided to go find Dr. Goon to get one... furthermore these days my lungs seem to be aching so I might as well get it checked.

OMG there's like soooo many people in there... I had to wait for like 2 hours to see Dr. Goon... guess it's the 'sick season'. I was so bored I had to sing (softly) to amuse myself and the rest of the time I was sleeping. Okay... I actually brought my bio textbook along to read but haih.. who will wanna read books when they are sick lah? Thankfully, there is this baby who came in... Xiao Rui Rui is like super duper ke ai!!! Anyways.. This baby is like super adorable and fun!!! She even faked coughing to entertain all of us *lol* so cute!!! she did it until her face turned red wakakaka *eee!* She is so tiny and her skin is so fair and smooth! like tofu oni ^-^ and when she laughs her teeny little face scrunch up and her gummy (toothless) mouth is revealed =D

Finally it is my turn to see Dr. Goon. I expected a quick check up and be given some meds (and my MC of course) and be sent home. But lo and behold... I was told I had lung infection. *long, deep breathe* dammit this is just great...

So faced with this terrible diagnosis, I figured perhaps I should tell xxx that I xxxx him before it is too late... *dramatic sigh* haha okay *choi choi choi!!!* I'll stop the drama...

So anyways, its like there's something wrong with my lungs and airways and hence I can't breathe properly... Dr. Goon then sent me to a little room to be treated. I was seating quietly in front of all these complicated machines and my trepidation increased ten-fold when I caugh a glimpse of a syringe, its sharp pointy point glistening under the fluorescent light. Oh my god I'm gonna be shot!!! I freaked and gasped loudly. *faints*

But seems like I'm worrying too much as the needle is really to transfer some liquid-medicine-thingey to the 'machine', which is called a Nebulizer. Anyways I was soon hooked up to this Nebulizer thingey. To open up my airways, tts like I have to wear a gas mask and breathe in and breathe out, slowly, to inhale the medicine. Some bronchus dilatus and saline solution. Unfortunately for me, in my hazy, unwell state I couldn't follow instructions properly and I started breathing very fast... soon I was hyperventilating and got soooo dizzy I almost fainted. Turns out I've been breathing in my own CO2 that I exhaled. =.=''

After what seemed like forever, my torture came to an end and I walked out light-headed and my face moist with the saline solution. Dr. Goon then prescribed some anti-biotics and medicine and instructed me to finish all my meds. I guess she's already privy to the fact that I never eat my meds haha

Oh my god how am I to survive this??? One month without cold drinks and jellies!! *sigh* and I can't hug my baby sis too... just in case it is infectious. *grumble grumble*

The Nebulizing seems to have a good side effect as my lips turned a wonderful shade of dark pink after the treatment. Hopefully it'll last the whole week hehe tho it seems highly unlikely. But a girl can wish, can't she?

On another note... wanna thank Chun Fei sooooooo much for fixin my lappie!!! weee~ I was so scared my precious photos and not so precious assignments will be lost forever but luckily the tech wiz saved the day! thnx thnx thnx~ so nice to have friends who are good in all these tech stuff.

My CNY Holiday #2

2008-02-09T08:43:00.000-08:00

On Monday I went to Pavilion to watch Elizabeth with Funn Funn... It was a great movie and I just love the opulence of it all.. so many beautiful costumes and stuffs. Also I didn't know that Clive Owen could look so hot. I just love these kinda movies.

Anyways, it's like bump-into-old-school-mates day. We bumped into Yee Zhen and Chong Shen. This is the 2nd time I bump into them together liao... They must be dating *hehehe* Anyhow this is a bad time to bump into Yee Zhen as I was dressed crappily and she was looking downright gorgeous.

I was feeling shit that I look so shitty but thankfully salvation came a few moments later. We bumped into Kit Yee and Yong Kar Mun and some unknown girl. Thank goodness they look normal and not so attractive. But Kit Yee's face is as cute as ever ^-^ she's really so cute!!!

Anyways, seem like they'll be having the CJ7 Premiere that very day!

Although none of us were fans of Stephen Chow, we, okay... I, decided to stay back to 'chou re nao'. Funn Funn wanted to go home but relented in the end and stayed on for the greater good. We shopped around and soon it was 7.30. By then, there were SOOO many people liao!

And to think when we just arrived at Pavillion that day it was so kong liao liao~

So nice hor the red carpet... I think my wedding I'll do something like that... *giggles* omigosh i must earn lotsa money! I wanna get married in Pavilion!!!

Anyways, since so many people are edi clogging the sides of the red carpet, we decided to go right in front of everyone and then we waited *patiently* for Xing Yeh's arrival.

Aiyo everyone's like damn gan zheong! Wanna 8 edi but he's still not there...

See lah all the Secu-s... no leng zhai ones unfortunately.

a truant school girl who so semangat to join the CJ7 Premiere

I got bored and started cam-whoring... (not very nice tho *bluek*)

It's like everyone cannot tahan edi and kept on looking down the street, hoping his car will appear... The police and the Pavillion people were frantically getting cars to move out of the way... I was getting bored edi and started looking at the opposite direction and surprise, surprise... whose car should pull up in front of me but Stephen Chow's Merz. Me and Funn were expecting a better car tho.. but I guess he can't chose the car himself as the PR people will do all these. Wonder which PR company handled this? Btw, the carplate number is 5258... Quickly everyone go buy TOTO! (Stephen Chow is sitting on the left side in the back seats)

OMG I saw Stephen Chow up close!!! Unfortunately I have seriously blurry photos... (I was pushed and shoved around like mad) and stupid me never even think of taking video *grumble grumble*

He actually look very old and tired de... poor man... and got lotsa white hair... but might be dyed one gua? Anyways....

Stephen Chow! (red arrow)

but some nicompoop popped out of nowhere and block his face. argh!!! *marah*

I wish that guy get kutu.

After all the hustle and bustle, me and Funn Funn got hungry so we headed to Jln Alor to makan. I had Char Kuey Teow and Funn Funn had Singapore Mai Funn. Unfortunately it's all over-priced and mediocre food. Maybe people go there for the ambience ler... and also imho, it's a good place to people-watch. Got all kinds of humans: locals, ang mohs, girls, boys, confused half boy-half girls, boy-turned-girls, prostitutes, hawkers and cute little (straight) school girls like me and funn funn.

After makan, we were on our way back when we saw people crowding near Maybank, naturally, with the 'semangat inquiry' deeply rooted within me, I was intrigued and rushed over to see what was happening. Actually they were just filming some show... cheh... thought got accident or people bickering in public...

Can you see the camera man? So cool hor? can go so high up... makes me feel like being a camera-girl!

Anyways... after dropping Funn Funn off at the LRT station I went home and taadaa... my night came to an end. the end.

2008-02-02T05:58:00.000-08:00

Wee! Finally, it's the hols!!! Friday was good as Mr. K let us out half and hour earlier and also, I managed to finished my World Issues Journal (last min during break =p) and survived my 3 Gorges Dam debate although I did not prepare much. Although truth be told, the debate was kinda 'myeh~' I kinda expected it to be more 'passionate'.

Anyways, during break #1, Elizabeth and me decided to go and 'zhuan ji dan' or literally, 'turn the eggs' hehe it's gachapon for those who dunno mandarin. Pri and Li Huey tagged along as we went to the shop, which is on the same row as Baker's Cottage. Everyone started talking about the days of yore when gachapons only cost 20 cents and were extremely tiny.

An estatic Elli with her balls =P

It rained heavily on our way back but we (me and eli) the courageous ones, decided to brave the rain and run back to college while the other two decided to stay back. Of course me and eli are actually not done with our work and have things to print out in The Web.

Anyways we were soaking web when we finally stepped into the Web. *achoo!*

During break #2, Loo Yee and I went to the cafeteria to unload my stuffies before going to the Web to continue my unfinished assignments due that day. Lo and behold, whom shall I meet but the cute little kid who roams the cafeteria everyday. No... she's not a spirit or a pixie but the cafeteria towkay's kid, if i'm not mistaken. Usually she'd be quickly snapped up by people wanting to chat/play with her but today she was alone. So I quickly grab my chance and started talking to her. Oh gosh this kid is extremely friendly and sweet! She's Annabel by the way. Once I whipped out my camera, she was all smiles and friendlier than ever. I just love kids who love taking photos. To all the shy kids out there... buck up ler!

My first photo of Annabel!

More photos... ^-^

Showing Annabel the wonders of camwhoring.

Darren by Annabel and Annabel by Darren

As I was playing with Annabel and teaching her how to use the camera, happily minding my own business, some girls from the Model United Nations club popped over to sell us cookies for valentine's day. Then a shocking thing happened. THIS GIRL...

(photo courtesy of Annabel)

thought that Annabel is my DAUGHTER!!! and she is so not kidding. I mean of course I would be delighted and proud to have such a cute kid but do I look that old to have my own daughter?!!?!??! Having just turned *beep* recently, I have been feeling very *gasp* old and I am extremely sensitive when anyone mentions anything that might imply that I am...... old *sulks*

Anyways I had to leave to do my assignments and I left my camera with Annabel to keep her occupied. When I came back...

*taadaa!* Annabel's shots

***

After being stuck in the jam for god knows how long, Darren and I finally reached MidValley to watch Cloverfield. Unfortunately, it is a Friday and a holiday somemore (FT Day) so the boxoffice was crowded. Not wanting to wait that long and furthermore I have a party to attend in the evening, we decided to go watch in the Gardens instead.

*happy memories of the time I went to watch Alvin and the Chipmunks with ♥Pin♥*

Anyways... we went to Jusco to buy some snacks and sushi first before we went to see the movie. Unfortunately because of this, we missed Cloverfield's showtime and had to watch Meet the Spartans instead. Well, all I can say is this spoof of American pop culture is okay-okay ler... quite funny at times and it has Kevin Sorbo in it. For those uninitiated he is the guy that plays Hercules in some tv series that I watched when I was a kid haha

This cinema hall is slightly larger than the one I went to with Lay Pin last time but in this hall, there is a mini table at the side of your seat! So cool hor!!! *jakun* and also I saw the cute GSC employee again *giggles*

Next, I went to Pin's bday party!

Tak sangka Voon's coupon actually does work and she really wore a skirt to Pin's party.

Leng luis eating corn! ^-^ (l-r) voon, pin, yi rhu and pei wern.

omg.. Yi Rhu is so so so pretty!!! Her eyes are so nice and her lashes are so long and her dimples are so cute! =D yer... I sound so les... *choi* I love boys. But anyhows she really is so pretty!

The girls making salad! (l-r) Mun Jean, Yi Rhu and Pei Wern

The birthday girl!!! ^-^

Just another Thursday...

2008-01-31T08:43:00.001-08:00

Today is ECA Day and there were many booths set up in the Multi Purpose Hall (MPH) ^-^

There are quite a number of clubs and every one of them seems interesting... I felt like joining so many!! so I wrote my name down in a lot of booths and now I am not even sure what are the clubs that I have joint, other than Leo Omega, Photography Club and the Korean club. I feel so bad for being a traitor and joining Leo Club but I heard Taylor's Rotaract ain't that good. Furthermore, Pin's in Leo and there seems to be some cute guys in there too *grins*

After school we had to stay back for the Advanced Functions test. Amazingly, I could do almost all the questions! ^-^ Looks like I'm quite smart afterall! *beams*

There's nothing more invigorating than shopping and after weeks of hard work and exhaustion, I decided to go shopping at Pavillion. Sadly, someone couldn't make it and I was a wee bit upset. Anyhow, once I stepped into the store, all unhappy thoughts evaporated. OMG I love this Padini Concept Store!!! It is so different from the one in One Utama (which is like, real bluek, imho).

I was like a kid let loose in a gigantic candy store as there are sooo many stuffs to see and buy there! And everything is so affordable!!! I got quite carried away! I wish I can take home everything in the store! My favourite section is of course P & Co and Vincci accessories. I also saw the cardigan that Mei Funn wants and wanted to buy it for her but I decided to buy something else for myself instead. But... it's the thought that counts so mei funn you should be touched kekeke =P

Anyways, I got myself a few tops, a fire-engine red slingback (for CNY ^-^), a necklace and a pair of earrings. Was very happy because I had discount cuz it's my birthday month!!!

Overall, I am quite satisfied although I wished I could buy more stuff... but gotta keep the money for other brands.

This shopping trip really perked me up! I felt light and relaxed and so very very happy! ^-^ all my burdens seem to be lifted *purr~* I really should go shopping more. I ♥ Pavillion.

They even had a amazing life band that day. People were clapping and swaying along to their music. Really made the atmosphere so wonderful ^-^

Today is also Lian-Lian's birthday... so happy birthday girl! ^-^

Aaanyways... My family is so bad... cuz I came home late, they left without me to go to Pizza Hut to celebrate Lian-Lian's birthday. After eating they went shopping and they returned home only at 9 something, bringing along my portion of the pizza in a doggie bag. Evil! Make me eat pizza at night. Damn I'm so fat... T-T

On another note, recently one of my friend had break up with his girlfriend. I felt quite sorry this had happened as he is such a nice guy.. Hope he's okay. Also so sorry I couldn't join you guys for dinner that day.

Here are some random photos ^-^

Pin's bday cake on Wednesday

why so many policemen de....

2008-01-27T00:28:00.000-08:00

Yesterday after French class I was fetching Samantha home when we saw a lot of police officers carrying shields at the side of the road. Being blessed with the kaypoh gene, naturally I am very curious about what is happening. Being too preoccupied with guessing what could be happening, I made a wrong turn and ended up in the KLCC area.

Whoa..! They actually had more policemen there... and it made me change my mind about Malaysian policemen being fat and obese. Some of the policemen deployed there are actually quite fit and cool. Carrying their shields... so cool... I wished to join in the fun. But of cuz I didn't. Anyways, me and Samantha guessed that they were probably arresting illegal immigrants because of so many police trucks there.

But then they had those big, red Fire and Rescue Unit trucks also wor... Immediately I suspected arson, or maybe someone is stucked in the building (highly unlikely.) or there's a bomb in KLCC! *gasp*

anyways... after reading today's paper... turns out its another protest oni la. haih... so many protests... pity those people... so san foo protest but still no good has come out of it...

Bday Yum Cha at OTK

ARGH!!!

2008-01-26T23:55:00.000-08:00

I dun quite like my math teacher... cuz she told the whole class i was sleeping in class.... Math is already my least favourite subject and now haih... i dislike it further. *bluek* hope i can quickly catch up with my math stuffs....

Happy Thaipusam!

2008-01-23T07:45:00.000-08:00

Super epy that today's a hol!!! Unfortunately, it's not cuz I get to go out and play but so I can catch up on my homework. I did quite a lot of it but math is taking me a reaaaally long time to complete. At least I figured out how to use the graphic calculator.

In the evening, went to midvalley with Funn Funn, Liz, Vishul and Chun Fei to watch Atonement. I hate Briony!!!

Such a touching and thought-provoking movie! Also bought a some stuffies and got my bday present from my dear Lizzie! hehe and also Funn Funn... but she dowanna gimme my prezzie first *sulks*

Today was also cookie day... where Funn Funn was in la-la land as she munched on cookies that were made by her ex-crush's mom. But frankly, the cookies weren't that nice. But I heard that there's a new improved version... ^-^

College Life

2008-01-21T06:19:00.000-08:00

The reality of college life is completely different from what I imagined. My fantasies of chilling out with friends everyday and playing pool and watching movies all the time are completely shattered. Instead I am saddled with a pile of assignments. sigh. sometimes even break time have to be used to do homework. I'm starting to feel the process of Nerdification beginning in me. CHOI! *touch wood*

A typical day of my college life would go like this.

21-01-08

At roughly 6.20 I force myself to wake up and leave my warm, comfy bed grudgingly. Then I start singing and prancing around to make sure I'm fully awake and my brain cells are jolted into conciousness. Seterusnya, I fetch Pin at her place before heading off to college. The early morning chats with Pin make my day more enjoyable and make me look forward to go to school everyday ^-^

Hmm... reaching college edi... so I scan around for some vacant parking lot. I always park on the road near TBS so I don't have to be stuck in the crazy jam in front of Taylors once school ends. When I drive into my yellow parking box, Pin suddenly realises that we have parked beside Eugene's car, (isit jodoh??? hehehe =P) so I turned around to look and *BAM* my car hit the pavement. *ouch* luckily nothing serious. But later in the day, someone's admirer will go and heboh-hebohkan my little 'incident'. Sigh. My driving skills will have bad press again.

I leave Little Pin in the car and go to the coin machine to pay my parking fee~ Then I met Sharifah! What a pleasant surprise! ^-^ Then I found out that Sharifah knows Eugene cause he's actually from DJ. Like what a small world this (Taylors) is. This is also the first time I have a closed-up look of Eugene... actually he's like soo thin...

So first up is Bio. Today we learn about Proteins. Quite a good class. I didn't doze off until almost 15 mins to the end of the class. Ms. Fikar's really nice and interesting but usually the first period I'll be uber sleepy. Feel so bad haha maybe I'll have a cup of Starbucks every morning hehehe

Then I have break! Which instead of lounging around I spent doing my Advanced Functions homework. *cough* nerd *cough* It was due that very day and this math bimbo is completely clueless bout all these stuffs. Luckily Wei Mein and Jonathan and ________ (I forgot his name) came to the rescue. omg I'm so zhi bei. Everyone's math is so good. I must jia you.

Math was tolerable today. Due to a 'crisis' in the staffroom, the teacher was away most of the time. *YAY* I wonder what crisis they have? ICPU teachers having a catfight? Students breaking down in the staffroom? but I don't have time to wonder for long as I rush against time to finish my grade 11 review paper and also the questions involving my Graphing Calculator. Haih... this calculator... to me it's like so damn expensive. I could but 2 small LeSportSac bags with it. Or two Estee Lauder Pleasure Intense. Or 3-4 Stila Lip Glaze. sigh. Better learn to utilize it so my precious $$ is not wasted.

Soon, the teacher is back! I managed to finish my grade 11 review paper *smiles* And because the teacher has no time to check the other questions... I am saved!!! *wee* Then we went to a new topic. Thank goodness. I dislike the secant and tangent topic because it involves the use of the Graphing calculator *bluek*

12 pm - Break again! While Loo Yee went to collect her lab coat, I went to the Web, attempting to finish my short story. I think it should be typed out but all I had then was just a handwritten rough draft. I was like so gan cheong but then Darren said it's okay one ler. So happily, I ignored it and went to Asia Cafe with Loo Yee and Darren. On the way, I saw Alexander (the V.I. one not SAB one) smooching? some girl in public LOL

Today, we sat at my favourite spot in AC which is the al-fresco area near the tortoises. I love that place. Can't finish my wan tan mee. sigh.

The A Levels AS results are out! I'm very excited bout Pin's results! As I expected, she got herself good grades... although she has prepared for the worst and even prepared to get the retake forms. swt. I knew she'll do well. Voon also got really excellent results. Straight As! Everyone so smart... I also must nu li! Unfortunately, wei mein didn't fare quite as well. Hope he'll add more oil and study harder next time.

World Issues is next! I didn't finish my assignment and I got 0 marks. A little upset. Not much studying today. Basically just did some assignment on the Beslan tragedy in class. Later I will get hit on the head repeatedly by Mr. K (with a few sheets of paper) for my drop in performance. Wei. It's monday. I'm still in the weekend mode. sad.

English. Also Mr. K's class. Unfortunately, he takes his assignments very seriously and some of us were reprimanded for not finishing our short stories. We were then sent out of class and marked as absent. Well, he did warn us last week this is going to happen. Guess I have only myself to blame. But I was secretly happy because I had planned to go to Pavillion with Pin. I was extremely glad to be let out early. Also lotsa pple 'teman'-ed me, like ee von, darren, chee weng, beverly, nikki, and some other pple haha but I guess I must learn my lesson and finish ALL my assignments. (unfortunately i'm blogging now instead of writing my short story *-*)

So, went to the cafeteria for awhile. Man isit hot in there. Like an oven only. Saw Alexander again... with another girl! (Darren says: the girl just now was wearing pink!)

Tried to edit Darren's short story but couldn't concentrate. Ee Von is so rajin doing her work but I left with Pin to Pavillion. Tak insaf-insaf. *shake head*

Spent some time in Pavillion and then went to Sungei Wang to take da tou tie! Yay now they have free Yukata for us to wear! but the customer service by those ma lai muis is as horrible as usual *ugh*

went back to Pav. wanted to buy J.Co but lazy to line up so the plan was scrapped.

In the evenings, I'm supposed to do my assignments but I suddenly feel like either sleeping or blogging. So I chose the former. sigh. this post punye engrish sucks. nvm lah....... better start on my short story now.

Graduation Show

2008-01-19T11:59:00.000-08:00

Recently we had our Graduation Show for my advertising class. Since now I have limited time to blog, go here to see what happened that day.

Saturday (Birthday weekend!)

2008-01-19T09:03:00.000-08:00

On Jan the 15th (my birthday fyi, for those of u who don't care enough about me =P) I had a less than ideal birthday...

I had a few unlucky incidents, I was a sleep-deprived zombie and basically it was a hectic and tiring, but sporadically, nice, day. But that's for another story, which I shall blog about another day.

So anyways... today is like, a replacement "Birthday" day for me. My birthday present for myself? 10 hours of sleep. For a lil pig like me... nothing beats sleeping.

Initially I thought I wanna ajak everyone to go singK with me to celebrate but I have too much homework and also French class so it didn't work out. But nevermind... some other day then...

But I did other things which I like to do, like... stationery shopping!!!

I went to Popular to get my files and pens and stuffs... *sigh~* Don't you just love stationery shopping? Anyhows... I like to colour co-ordinate my stuffs and I was hoping I could get all pink or at least some pastel coloured files... but alas! it was not to be... *tsk tsk tsk* Popular is so icky. All they have are white and shocking neon green and yellow. So garish. Ugh. But I because I was so despo for files I had no choice but to buy them. *cringe* Please... If anyone has the same problem as me, please, I repeat, please... contact me so we can sign a petition for Popular to stock more pink (or pastel coloured) files and things. Or at least more of those cute cute stationery from Korea.

So, as I was walking out of Leisure Mall, I felt people staring at me. Just when I was starting to wonder whether I had become slimmer or I look extra radiant today, I realised I had carried the Popular basket out with me. I quickly ran back to Popular in my ouch heels*, silently squirming in pain and gave the Popular staff a good laugh when they found out what had happened. Hey, at least I made their day.

*Ouch Heels - On Friday I was rushing to go to school and I accidentally wore my sister's slippers. I feel tortured in flat shoes, so in desperation, I quickly grabbed some heels from Cat Whiskers during break time. Although the shoe looks super cute and pretty... it hurts my feet like hell. It's really really really painful. But since I bought it, I might as well wear it. And hey, if my ancestors can tahan foot-binding, what's a little pain eh?*

After that, I went to French class ^-^ wee!!!

Last week, I missed my French class, and it was the first class of this term too! But it was necessary as my advertising class is more important. Anyways, luckily for me, they didn't do too much in French class, basically just reviewing stuffies from last term. Also, the original teacher, Miss Sharmini is replaced by a French guy this week! I think they purposely change it to a guy one lor 'cuz they know Mademoiselle Becky is a lusty little man-eater (just kidding lah... i'm an innocent little lamb) Somemore Annisa the admin girl asked me in a teasing tone whether I prefer male or female teacher... hmm...

So my new teacher's name is Salah... cute moniker huh? haha =D Today, I am happy to say, is a very productive day. Learnt lotsa grammar and some vocubulary. I was also forced by Monseur Salah to answer in French, which I kinda succeeded. *clap clap*

In the evening, my whole extended family went to Purple Cane for me and lian-lian, the January babies' joint birthday dinner. The food is great as usual. I definitely recommend their nestum prawns! wah... Every single nestum flake is crunchy and nice and they don't clump together like in some restaurants.

Also as usual, everyone at the kid's side of the room (yours truly included) started camwhoring... Dunno why... maybe it's the nice yellow lights there. Are we vain? I wonder what do other cousins do when they get together? hehe

Since a picture is worth a thousand words... nah! Here they are below to save me from typing more words and prevent this blog post from being longer.

Since CNY is just around the corner...

Loh Sang!

Hor hor... got caught cam-whoring in a corner!

After makan, we also dropped by Yu Yan Sang and the Purple Cane's store for some CNY shopping. I was not very happy because they didn't want to buy the green tea egg rolls for me *sulks* On the bright side, I did buy some stuffs for Hong Lao Shi, my primary school teacher 'cuz her birthday is on Monday! ^-^

Bored in Yu Yan Sang...
