The other day, I went for an interview at a new posh area that I had not been to: Paddington.

And this is my new shiny pretty ring!

Procrastination

2010-11-02T12:18:00.004+11:00

Final exams are creeping by and yet I have to indulge in unnecessary procrastination. I found a website by googling "random blog", which leads me to randomBLOG. This website is damn bloody cool! With a lot of random interesting things. It also leads me to other websites with cute photos:

The dragon

2010-10-28T20:39:00.001+11:00

A magnificent comeback after the recuperative year of the Rabbit. We will throw caution to the four winds and roll up our sleeves for all sorts of grandiose, exhilarating, colossal, over-ambitious and daring projects. The indomitable spirit of the Dragon will inflate everything to larger than life size. Somehow we will find ourselves bubbling with excess energy. It will be wise not to overestimate ourselves or our potentials in this combustible year. Things appear better than they actually are.

On the brighter side, business will be good and money can be generated or obtained easily. It is the time to ask your bank for a loan. Big spending and lavish plans are the rule of the day. The mighty Dragon sneers at the prudent and penny-pinching. He gambles for all or nothing. He will stimulate us to think and act big, even overstepping the bounds of caution.

Orientals consider this to be an auspicious year to get married, have children or start a new business, as the benevolent Dragon brings good fortune and happiness.

However, this is also a time to temper our enthusiasm and look twice before taking a plunge. For although the lucky Dragon showers his blessings indiscriminately on all, he disappears when the time comes for making retributions for our errors. Successes as well as failures will thus be magnified. The Fire Dragon (January 31,1976 to February 17,1977) is especially feared, as he wreaks more havoc than the Dragons of the other elements.

In the Dragon's year, fortunes as well as disaster will come in massive waves. This is a year marked by a lot of surprises and violent acts of nature. Tempers will flare the world over and everyone will be staging some real or imaginary revolt against constrictions. The electric atmosphere created by the mighty Dragon will affect us, one and all.

THE DRAGON PERSONALITY

The mighty and magnificent Dragon of mythical folklore never ceases to enchant or stir the imagination. So it must be said that some of its magical qualities, illusory or not, are contained in those born under his sign.

The Dragon person is magnanimous and full of vitality and strength. To him, life is a blaze of colors and he is constantly on the go. Egotistical, eccentric, dogmatic, whimsical or terribly demanding and unreasonable, he is still never without a band of admirers. Proud, aristocratic and very direct, the Dragon-born establishes his ideals early in life and demands the same high standards and perfection from others that he has for himself.

In China, the Dragon symbolizes the Emperor or the male. It represents power; those born in the Dragon year are said to wear the horns of destiny. A Dragon child will tend to take up important burdens and responsibilities even if he happens to be the youngest in the family. Often, older Dragon children can bring up their younger siblings with more authority than the parents.

The Dragon is a veritable storehouse of energy. His impetuosity, eagerness and almost religious zeal can blaze like the fabled fire the Dragon emits from its mouth. He has the potential for accomplishing great things, which is fortunate as the Dragon likes to perform on a grand scale. However, unless he contains his premature enthusiasm, he may burn himself out and end up in a puff of smoke. He is the most liable to become fanatical over an issue. Whatever the Dragon does, good or bad, he will never fail to make the headlines. The Chinese call him the guardian of wealth and power. Certainly a prosperous sign to belong to. But then again, the Dragon is the sign most prone to megalomania.

The powerful Dragon is difficult to contest, at times even impossible. He tends to intimidate those who dare challenge him. An angry, spurned Dragon could be like the big bad wolf at your door. He'll huff and he'll puff until he blows your house down.

But the Dragon is likely to be filial in spite of his strong temper and dogmatic ways. Whatever differences he or she may have with the family will be forgotten or set aside when they call for aid. The Dragon can put aside domestic resentments and come to the rescue promptly and with largesse. However, his family can also count on a severe lecture from him once the crisis is over. The Dragon seldom minces words. He cites his views like Imperial Edicts. Although he may rave about the virtues of free speech and democracy--don't buy it. He feels himself to be above the law and doesn't always practice what he preaches.

Sometimes being civil, affectionate and honey-tongued can be a terrible strain on the Dragon. He would much rather be rough, rude and utterly inconsiderate when provoked. But don't try to give him back the same medicine. Somehow, it just won't work, unless you happen to be another Dragon and decide to do battle. Then we can all sit around and watch the magnificent fireworks that will make the 4th of July look like candles on a birthday cake.

In spite of his volcano of emotions, the Dragon cannot be said to be sentimental, sensitive or very romantic. He takes love and adulation for granted: they are his just due. But while he may be stubborn, irrational and overbearing when irked, the Dragon can forgive you the moment he gets over his outburst. And since things are supposed to work both ways, he expects your forgiveness for his errors, too. He may even neglect to apologize at times, which may seem callous, but then the Dragon really has no time to explain himself or be bothered by grudges or trifles; he just wants to get on with his work.

While the Dragon may be strong and decisive, he is not cunning or guileful. He shuns easy adaptability and tricky negotiations. Were the contest to be decided on strength alone, the Dragon would conquer hands down; but he is often overconfident, brash and deluded by his wonderful visions--thus neglecting to pay attention to possible upsets or underhanded plots that could overthrow him. Instead of sniffing around for brewing schemes, he prefers to plunge into battle, often refusing to retreat even in the face of overwhelming odds. Too proud, he disdains to call for assistance; too sure, he rarely keeps anything in reserve. Too intent on going forward, he forgets to protect his rear and flanks. Too upright, he refuses to lie. Further, he is unable to interpret clever insinuations and generally fails to spot the evil and subversive intent of his enemies.

To the Dragon person, having a purpose or special mission in his life is vital. It's just not healthy for him to lie around with nothing to do. He must always have a cause to fight for; a goal to reach; a right to wrong. Otherwise, how do you expect him to keep that inner fire burning? Without his pet projects, rallies and other impossible schemes, the Dragon is like a locomotive without fuel. He fizzles out and becomes dull and listless.

The Dragon has the same affinity for success as the Snake, but because he expresses his views more openly and his failures are more likely to involve some form of physical exertion, he is usually spared deep psychological problems. Being a doer, he will take to one-man crusades, lead demonstrations, write letters to the newspapers or collect a million signatures on a petition. This method of belching fire and brimstone effectively rids him of any inner neurosis that could result otherwise.

The Dragon lady is the Grand Dame of the cycle. She will be a suffragette, a believer of equal rights for women. Double standards and discrimination will arouse her wildest passions. What a man can do, she can probably do better. Don't ever underestimate her. She is going to beat you at your own game--or die trying. She'll never stand idly by and accept her fate. She is the stuff empires are built on, the matriarch of old. Cross her and the sky will fall.

To tell the truth, the Dragon female is strictly a no-nonsense person. She will show this by the way she dresses. Practical and functional clothes appeal to her most. No frills, flimsy laces, buttons and bows, but a minimum of complications. Clothes that go on and off easily and provide her with maximum movement will be her top choice. She hates restrictions and limitations. Actually, she may even secretly prefer a uniform if she has military or institutional inclinations. This way, starched, crisp and superbly efficient, she can pop off to work every day without the bother of having to decide what to wear.

The Dragon girl seldom, if ever, over-decorates herself. Her brilliance is in her mind and this will shine forth, without any trimmings. Self-esteem rates very high with all Dragons, so the Dragon female will be no exception. She doesn't expect to be treated like divinity though she does have her airs. She just wants your respect and she will do everything in her power to get it.

The lady Dragon is totally emancipated, so strong-arm tactics will get you nowhere. You might as well resign yourself--she will have the last word.

Despite his faults being as numerous as his virtues, the luster of the Dragon shines on everyone. He is not petty, nor is he begrudging with favors. He may grumble a lot, but he cannot resist helping the needy or coming to the rescue when you are in trouble. This may not be because he feels real compassion or genuine concern; more often than not, the Dragon helps because he has a profound sense of duty to all.

The Dragon will somehow always have a notable contribution to make. You can count on his support, for he will not let you down if he can help it. The Dragon will exhaust all his resources before he admits failure. An extrovert and lover of nature, this person will be an active sportsman, a travel bug and an excellent talker. He has the makings of a super-salesman and he and his band of loyal followers will always be promoting something.

The weather conditions at the time of a Dragon's birth will affect his life a great deal. A child born during a storm will lead a tempestuous and hazardous life beset by danger or spectacular experiences. One born on a day when the sea (his ancestral home) and the heavens are calm will have a protected existence and a more amiable nature.

The Dragon native will either marry young or prefer to remain single. He can be happy leading a solitary life, as his work and career will keep him occupied. He will seldom lack friends or admirers to keep him company.

The Dragon is not a spendthrift, but he is not a miser, either. He is generous with money but never too concerned about his bank balance unless he happens to have a strong combination with money-making signs.

The Dragon person is super-positive. Nothing will keep him down for long, and even when he has a bad case of the doldrums, he will snap out of it faster than anyone else. His buoyancy defies rhyme or reason.

For a sign that never accepts defeat, the Dragon provides his own worst opposition. He will dash headlong into a disastrous situation when he is convinced he is right. Pompous and self-destructive, you say? No, not really. It is just that this person must follow his plans through--irregardless of the consequences. After all, he was put on earth to raise standards to superlative heights and the more you try to change his course of action or steer him away from trouble, the more headstrong he becomes. He lives up to his reputation for taking the lead even when it becomes most unpleasant.

Whatever else, the Dragon will be an open person--you can read him like a book. It is difficult for him to pretend emotions he does not feel. He rarely even bothers to try. He is not secretive either, and cannot keep a confidence for too long. Even when he swears not to breathe a word of it, you can be sure he will blurt it out when he gets angry and the sparks begin to fly. You say he promised to keep it a secret? What secret? How can you bother him with such a trivial thing at a time like this?

His feelings are genuine and always straight from his heart. When he declares he loves you, you can be absolutely sure he is sincere.

Should he belong to the rougher variety of Dragons, he could be too a super-salesman and he and his band of loyal followers will always be promoting something.

His feelings are genuine and always straight from his heart. When he declares he loves you, you can be absolutely sure he is sincere.

Should he belong to the rougher variety of Dragons, he could be too abrasive. His direct, brusque manners and callousness could well antagonize people. But generally speaking, he will inspire action. He should personally attend to things he wants done immediately instead of writing or dealing over the phone. His presence and magnetism will swing people over to his way of thinking. He motivates everyone he comes into contact with. He himself needs no motivation, as he is more than capable of generating his own momentum.

It will never be hard to place your confidence in the truthful Dragon. He seldom wavers, cowers or shifts responsibility. He possesses little or no self-doubt. With his natural pioneering spirit, his attempts will be stupendous successes or unbelievable exercises in futility. He must drive right to the very edge of the precipice and take a look for himself. Just hold your breath, keep your fingers crossed and pray that he has good brakes.

I guess Frank Sinatra, who is a Dragon, and his song "My Way" concisely sum up how the Dragon ticks.

Of all the animal signs, the Dragon will be attracted most to the irresistible Monkey. The Monkey will similarly be drawn to the Dragon's majesty and they will make an unbeatable team. A Dragon-Rat union will be an equally winning combination as the Rat is crafty where the Dragon is strong. They could do great things together. The Dragon will likewise make a good match with the cool and venerable Snake, whose wisdom could check the Dragon's excessiveness.

Tiger, Rooster, Horse, Sheep, Rabbit and boar will all seek the Dragon out for his beauty and his strength. Two Dragons will get along pretty well but the Dragon's relationship with the Ox may be a bit strained by the Ox's similar authoritativeness. Of all the animal signs, perhaps only the Dog will make a miserable partner for the Dragon. The Dragon will come under the close scrutiny of the Dog and the Dog will be too cynical to fall under his spell.

Above all, it is worth remembering that although the Dragon is dazzling, he is not deep. Only when he can harness his legendary powers can he perform miracles. He needs people to believe in him!

THE DRAGON CHILD

The high-spirited Dragon child is an innovator. Forceful, fearless and vibrant--nothing will daunt his idealistic outlook on life. He will formulate his own principles early in life and will need or ask for very little help. He is respectful of his elders and will be able to obey commands precisely.

This intense child needs to anchor his passions to something or someone he considers worthy of his devotion. He will have countless idols--his teachers, his parents or anyone he regards highly. He is bright, aggressive and independent. Tough and resilient, he can take teasing or shoving around because he is willing and ready to fight for his rights. Outspoken and ambitious, he should be given responsibilities in order to keep him occupied and make him feel useful. However, he should not be allowed to bully less assertive children. His domineering ways must be checked at an early age.

The Dragon child must be made to feel his worth. He would prefer that you needed him instead of just loved him. His efforts are always sincere and should be praised, as he will work very hard to please you and gain your respect. Never bruise his ego by laughing at him, even if he goes about performing a simple chore as if it were some intricate ritual. The Dragon's self-esteem is immeasurable. His dreams of greatness are all real and tangible to him. In life, his emotions will touch soaring heights and unfathomable depths. If he fails at anything, he has to be reassured that the sun will shine again the next day. He judges himself very harshly. Once he realizes his mistake, there will be no need for you to reproach or punish him, as he will be the first to chastise himself and make amends.

If your child is a Dragon, he will want or maybe even demand that you rely on him and he will do his best never to disappoint you. This proud and self-reliant youngster will be strong and faithful to his ideals always. He was born to lead and excel.

The year of the rabbit, for rabbit

2010-10-28T20:09:00.002+11:00

A placid year, very much welcomed and needed after the ferocious year of the Tiger. We should go off to some quiet spot to lick our wounds and get some rest after all the battles of the previous year.

Good taste and refinement will shine on everything and people will acknowledge that persuasion is better than force. A congenial time in which diplomacy, international relations and politics will be given a front seat again. We will act with discretion and make reasonable concessions without too much difficulty.

A time to watch out that we do not become too indulgent. The influence of the Rabbit tends to spoil those who like too much comfort and thus impair their effectiveness and sense of duty.

Law and order will be lax; rules and regulations will not be rigidly enforced. No one seems very inclined to bother with these unpleasant realities. They are busy enjoying themselves, entertaining others or simply taking it easy. The scene is quiet and calm, even deteriorating to the point of somnolence. We will all have a tendency to put off disagreeable tasks as long as possible

Money can be made without too much labor. Our life style will be languid and leisurely as we allow ourselves the luxuries we have always craved for. A temperate year with unhurried pace. For once, it may seem possible for us to be carefree and happy without too many annoyances.

THE RABBIT PERSONALITY

A person born in the year of the Rabbit possesses one of the most fortunate of the twelve animal signs. The Rabbit, or Hare as he is referred to in Chinese mythology, is the emblem of longevity and is said to derive his essence from the Moon.

When a Westerner gazes at the Moon, he may joke that it is a ball of cheese or tell a child the story of the Man in the Moon. When a Chinese looks at the Moon, he sees the Moon Hare standing near a rock under a Cassia tree and holding the Elixir of Immortality in his hands.

During the Chinese mid-Autumn festival when the Moon is supposed to be at its loveliest, Chinese children still carry lighted paper lanterns made in the image of a Rabbit and climb the hills to observe the Moon and admire the Moon Hare.

The Rabbit symbolizes graciousness, good manners, sound counsel kindness and sensitivity to beauty. His soft speech and graceful and nimble ways embody all the desirable traits of a successful diplomat or seasoned politician.

Likewise, a person born under this sign will lead a tranquil life, enjoying peace, quiet and a congenial environment. He is reserved and artistic and possesses good judgment. His thoroughness will also make him a good scholar. He will shine in the fields of law, politics and government.

But he is also inclined to be moody; at such times he appears detached from his environment or indifferent to people.

The Rabbit is extremely lucky in business and monetary transactions. Astute at striking bargains, he can always pop up with a suitable proposal or alternative to benefit himself. His sharp business acumen, coupled with his knack for negotiation, will ensure him a fast rise in any career.

Although the Rabbit may assume an outer air of indifference to the opinions of others, he actually withers under criticism. His "rather switch than fight" technique can be deceiving and he can be diabolically cunning when he puts his mind to it. So while the Rabbit person is tender and obliging to his loved ones, he can be superficial and even ruthless in his dealings with outsiders. Suave and self-indulgent, he enjoys his creature comforts and likes to put his own wishes first. It irks him terribly to be inconvenienced for he is a considerate, modest and thoughtful person and he would like others to be the same. He sincerely believes it costs people nothing to be nice to each other and he will always make an effort to be civil, even to his worst enemy. He abhors brawling and any sort of overt animosity.

For all his quiet and misleadingly docile nature, a Rabbit person possesses a strong will and an almost narcissistic self-assurance. He pursues his objectives with methodical precision but always in an unobtrusive manner. If there is anything he isn't going to be accused of, it is that he is an obvious or thick-skinned person. He won't make waves. The special trait that makes the Rabbit person a formidable negotiator is his inscrutability. It is difficult ever to assess his thoughts correctly.

The Rabbit usually has impeccable manners. He seldom uses harsh words and will never resort to foul language or vulgarisms to bring home a point. There is little need to anyway, as he has his own techniques. The Rabbit could hide under this cloak of decency to undermine his opponents. His credentials are usually flawless or at least in good order. He will wine and dine you in the best places and cater to your every whim when he is after something. Then, when you have eaten your fill and are puffing away contentedly at that expensive cigar, he will pull out the contract for you to sign. Before you know it, he has cut you off at the knees. He was so deft, you didn't even feel any pain. It was all over with the stroke of a pen. My sympathies are with you, friend. You are just another victim of the incomparable Hare. Now do you understand why Bugs Bunny always gets his carrots in all those cartoon strips?

The Rabbit may appear a bit slow or overly deliberate at times, but this is due to his inborn sense of caution and discretion. One can be sure he is going to read the fine print before signing any document. Because of his ability to assess people and situations, the Rabbit can afford to be conceited--which, by the way, he is.

The demure Ms. Rabbit is very considerate and understanding with her friends: a great gal to work with, shop with or just tell stories with. She is delightfully warm and witty and her company is always relaxing. She has a lot of energy for the things she likes to do and can tirelessly track down antique shops or plan a friend's wedding to the last detail. But when she feels she has had enough of all that rigmarole, well, you can expect her to drop whatever she is doing, prop up her dainty feet and go all limp. That is the philosophical part of the Rabbit. Do you know why she can keep so serene with all that frantic action going on? The secret is to know when your batteries need recharging, and no one has better knowledge or timing on this than the Rabbit.

While everyone is killing himself in a mad rush to get somewhere, the Rabbit knows that the world will still be here tomorrow. So, what's the big hurry? Why don't you sit down, too? She will probably make you a nice cup of tea and help you forget all about that crazy rat race outside.

In any situation, you can always rely on the Rabbit to be in control of herself. She will notice the license number of the getaway car or remember that the driver was wearing camel-colored trousers or elevator shoes. And while you are at the police station filing that report, she will calmly recall all the details and help you answer all those irritating questions.

All in all, the Rabbit is one who really knows how to live. What's more, he or she is more than willing to let live. Not a spoilsport or disciplinarian with an ever-watchful eye, the Rabbit knows when to refrain from criticism. He never likes to embarrass anyone in public. He is adept at the art of saving face, both yours and his, and if there is any way he can spare your feelings, he will.

Have no doubt--he makes mental notes of your mistakes or progress. But if things are not serious or beyond redemption, he will goodheartedly let you pass. For this trait, he is well-liked and popular. An advantage of this philosophy is that the Rabbit makes few enemies and thus rarely gets into trouble. People respond by being generous to him and letting him pass, too.

No one has a more sympathetic ear to lend you than the Rabbit (except the Sheep) should you need one. But while he is an excellent soother and compassionate listener, he will only take the role of a passive advisor. He is, above all, an intellectual, a realist and a pacifist. Do not expect him to go out with all colors flying and do battle for you. That would be asking too much of him. Let's face it, the Rabbit will never elect to trudge up Mount Calvary with you, no matter what great buddies you two claim to be. He'll lend you the money for the lawyer or bail you out of jail if he can afford it, but that's about all. And if you are getting to be too much of a nuisance, you can count on his making a quick but graceful exit from your life.

The comely and refined Miss Rabbit will not be adverse to marrying a good old-fashioned millionaire instead of a handsome but penniless swain. The former will be able to provide her with the advantages and luxuries she demands as necessities. Her man must be powerful enough to protect and support her in style, and sensitive enough to politely disappear when she is in a sullen mood and wishes to remain undisturbed.

When given the choice, the Rabbit will vote for the easy and good life every time. He or she will wear loose comfortable clothing of superb cut and fabric. Cashmere sweaters, pure silk blouses and durable linens and tweeds. A mink or chinchilla carelessly thrown over the shoulder in a calculated air of nonchalance could also identify the elegant Rabbit native. Flashy, geometric or shocking designs offend the Rabbit's sense of conformity and balance.

While gracious to friends and coworkers, the Rabbit person may be somewhat distant from his own family or simply bored by domestic routine and duties. He or she hates too close associations; he will shake off an encroachment on his privacy or clinging parasitic friends with no regret. He can be bureaucratic and hedgy over difficult issues. As he is one who hates binding commitments or over-involvement, he can also be an expert at passing the buck.

Mr. Rabbit is singularly debonair. He moves with grace, charm and gentlemanliness, in spite of the fact that while he was singing your praises, he was also drinking all your best wine. Yes, the Rabbit gravitates toward the cream of society and gentlemanly leisure. On second thought, the cream of high society could well be made up of poised and genial Hares.

At his best, the Rabbit is admired for his suaveness and intelligence and sought after for his sensible advice. At his worst, he is too imaginative, oversensitive or just acidly indifferent. He avoids coming into contact with human suffering or misery, as though it were some highly contagious disease.

The Rabbit is not at all easy to trap. He can also become very repressive in his predilection for secrecy or privacy. When the Rabbit person feels threatened, his subtle brooding or concealed antagonism could be expressed by the use of subversive tactics. Joseph Stalin and Fidel Castro and South Africa's Johannes Vorster are Rabbits. It is also worth noting that Thailand's King Bhumibol, admired and well-loved by his subjects for his exemplary life and devotion to music, art and domestic harmony, was born in the year of the Rabbit. So were King Olav V of Norway, Queen Victoria, Albert Einstein, David Rockefeller and David Frost.

For all his positive qualities, a native of this sign will still value himself above all else. When pushed too far, he will discard anything or anyone who dares upset the calm of his existence. His beliefs are known to be flexible and he has the knack of playing both sides for insurance. Security could be an obsession to the weaker types of this specimen; you rarely find a Rabbit in areas of high risk.

This love of ease coupled with his distaste for conflict may give the Rabbit a reputation for being weak, opportunistic and self-indulgent. Unlike the Dragon, Dog, Tiger, or Rooster, who all enjoy a hearty fight now and then, and may even thrive on it, the Rabbit has no relish for combat. He was not born to be a warrior. He is more effective working behind the scenes. Do not be concerned about the Rabbit's well-being. He is agile and sagacious and armed with the good sense to keep out of harm's way. Unlike other signs, who may pursue lofty ideals, the Rabbit's main objective in life is simply self-preservation.

The Rabbit year is said to bring peace or at least a respite from conflict or war. Likewise, its native will do everything in his power to restore harmony or he will leave the scene.

The Rabbit person makes a good entertainer and is a wonderful host. Pleasant and warm company, he has a good word to say of everyone. But don't let that fool you. He knows more than he will say and you can easily recognize him by his finesse. He will be the best of friends so long as you take care not to ask too much of him.

The well-groomed Rabbit is most compatible with those born in the Sheep year. They will share the same good taste and love of material comforts. Equally well suited will be a relationship with the Dog person or the honest, unimposing Roar native. The Rat, Dragon, Monkey, Ox, Snake and Rabbit will make good secondary matches for him. But he will not be able to tolerate the vanity or criticism of the Rooster, is unimpressed by the dramatics of the Tiger and unappreciative of the quick-tempered and mercurial ways of the Horse.

To sum it up, the Hare simply leaps over obstacles in his path and recovers from calamities with remarkable resilience. No matter how he is tossed, he lands on his feet. He may not be close to his family but will make every effort to provide them with the best of everything. His soft, vulnerable-looking exterior is protected by an armor of cautiousness and sagacity. In life, the Rabbit will avoid being drawn into conflict at any cost, unless, of course, it affects him directly, at which time he will take the appropriate measures to protect his interests.

There is no great inner struggle in the Rabbit's heart between the forces of good and evil. He believes in his own ability to survive, relies on his own judgment and is at peace with himself. His is the sign most apt to find happiness and contentment.

THE RABBIT CHILD

A child born in the Rabbit's year will have a sweet disposition. Even-tempered and obedient, he will be sensitive to the moods of his parents and act accordingly. He may or may not be talkative, but he won't be rowdy or offensive. He can sit quietly and concentrate on one toy or game at a time.

Usually he is a light sleeper and may fret a lot when he is sick. He will be easy to discipline and should have little trouble fitting in at school. He learns his lessons well and with ease. But although he has better than average manners, this does not mean he will not be argumentative in his own soft-spoken way. He can grasp both sides of a question quickly and debate his point with intelligence.

At times, it will be difficult to decipher his thoughts or deeds. Smooth at masking his feelings, the Rabbit will only say what he knows will please you and thus maneuver you to his way of thinking without your even noticing it.

He will be able to fend for himself and protect his possessions. Remarkably observant, he can calculate his chances for getting his way. Instead of directly resisting rules, the subtle Rabbit will carefully devise ways around them. In short, this polite little angel is going to bargain for a better deal every time.

He can take reproach with a defiant or philosophical sort of indifference. Shrugging off his setbacks, the Rabbit will patiently start again from square one. Helpful at home, conforming in school and well-tuned to his environment, this child will know his way around people and problems. Rest assured he will be well-liked and accepted in all circles.

There comes a time when you have everything, or in another perspective, you do not desire for anything (that much till it motivates or drives you to get it). At that point in time, life seems to be meaningless?

Though I guess now I know what drives me. I want to travel to new places! So many places to visits ;) I also want to start photographing using a DSLR camera which I wanted to do so for such a long time; I might be a freelance photographer ^6^. Something to aim for, something to live for! =D

Snowy Mountain @ Winter 2010

2010-07-19T18:38:00.004+10:00

After Melbourne, I went for a day's trip to Snowy Mountain with my aunt (yesterday, from 12:30am till 11:30am). Overall I spent $350 including the things I bought to prepare me for the trip ^6^

Actually aunt only wants me to see the snow for once since it might be my last winter break here in Australia. I am graduating after another 2 semester and might be back in Malaysia for good - no one knows what will happen in the future. Anyway, those who knows me well will know that see-ing snow alone after travelling by bus for like 6 hours is not enough. Nothing is going to stop me from trying out snowboarding!

Was wearing 4 thick layers underneath my winter jacket due to aunt's advice o.O. Anyway, I took 2 thick layers off (top and bottom) since I was suffocating and getting hot @@ I need to get the ski glasses/goggles and waterproof pants for my future trips =p

Paid $115 for 2 and a half hours of snowboarding lesson and the right to use those lifts =p

They have few different types of lifts... The photo shown above: The lift that brings you high up to a steep fall... For professionals but I tried it anyway and fall all the way down =) weee...

After my failed lesson, I had a break with my aunt. Tried to make a snowman but failed badly too ;( Sucky me. Although so, I had lots of fun ^6^

Then, from Smiggin Holes we went to Perisher by a free shuttle bus.

The map =p

My aunt and I... oh and my snowboard! Right leg forward... Next time, I need to ask for a Left leg forward or neutral with a wider width for my feet. Oh well, lessons learned.

Woot~! My brand new snow car =p As if @@

Poser me =p I had FUN and I love it there ^6^ I want to go there again sometime, WITH FUN PEEPZ TO FALL DOWN WITH ;)

Melbourne Trip @ Winter 2010

2010-07-19T18:09:00.003+10:00

Yay! I love holidays especially those that brings me to a whole new place. I went for a short trip to Melbourne (050711 - 140711) by Jetstar ($176). Overall I spent around $1100 inclusive of everything - from air fares, forgo-ed air fares (Tigerways of $75) to my shopping spree. AWESOME! Oh and best part, thank you Timmy for such great hospitality and free homely with 36th story high view type of accomodation =D *brims~ Without you, this trip is impossible!

Photo taken when we were travelling down to the ground floor from the 36th story of Verve Apartments building - Tim's crib.

Photo taken at the Edge - Skydeck ^6^ We were all hanging from the 88th story high tower =D
Admission costs each of us $10 and entry to the Edge was $11 (on student concession). AWESOME! Photo costs $15, contribution from Timmy so that he can scan it to share with us all ^6^.

Darling and my trip to Mornington and Sorento with his friends =) This is the Murray's Lookout. The hot spring that we went to was amazing especially during winter time =D

@ one of the beaches in Mornington I think? Ngek ngek! This photo should win an award!!!

Timmy, Quan and I at the Dandenong Garden? Blurrish photo tho ;0

I got the chance to meet my cousin, Ben. It has been 2 years since we met? He looks more mature =p Won't be seeing him some time now =(

The view from St. Kilda beach. I am using this photo as my desktop wallpaper now =D LOVE IT.

Quannie and I! The jump we made =) I looked like a frog here @@ Love this photo ^6^

I ordered this Strawberry Daquiri during my last dinner in Melbourne with my darling Justin =)
It was sweet with a light strawberry taste. Something new and pricey =p

This photo was taken by me, during our trip to Phillips Island. Was in a Fauna Park, on the way to the island. Entry costs per person was $15 and $1 for the kangaroos' food. Overall, unforgettable experience, to get up close with the kangaroos and a new term: kangaroo-cist created because Marie was screaming all the way and unable to feed a single kangaroo for like an hour + she prefers albino kangaroos? XD

Overall, this trip to Melbourne was awesomely amazing. Glad I can spend this great holiday experience with my Seremban and new friends, especially with my darling to rebond and renew our relationship =p Love you all XD

Pretty stuffs

2010-06-30T22:40:00.002+10:00

I guess it is normal for a girl/lady/woman to desire for pretty stuffs in their life. Currently I am all-in for Korean stuffs, be it their clothing style, accessories or even their language. Though I am sure only the positive side of Korea was shown in their dramas =p Nevertheless, sa rang he yo, Korea~

I think I am one crazy female that exist in this world. I seriously do not know who I am and what I am feeling right now. Or rather, what am I thinking or have been thinking. I felt like a failure in life. I used to be all cheery and truly happy till now I felt that I had lost it all. Or am I just imagining it?

Or... it is just the time of the month again.

I am sorry I am a bitch. I will tell you soon what I wanted to tell you when I see you. I am a ignorant loner - a fool.

Rick Price - Heaven Knows LYRICS

2010-06-04T15:45:00.001+10:00

she's always on my mind,
from the time i wake up
'till i close my eyes
she's everywhere i go
she's all i know

though she's so far away
it's just keeps getting stronger
every day
and even now she's gone
i'm still holding on

so tell me where do i start
'cause it's breaking my heart
don't wanna let her go

chorus:
maybe my love will come back some day
only heaven knows
and maybe our hearts will find their way
only heaven knows
and all i can do is hope and pray
'cause heaven knows

my friends keep telling me
that if you really love her
you've gotta set her free
and if she returns in kind
i'll know she's mine

so tell me where do i start
'cause it's breaking my heart
don't wanna let her go

chorus

why i live in despair
'cause wide awake or dreaming
i know she's never there
and all these time i act so brave
i'm shaking inside
why does it hurt me so...

chorus

heaven knows

The Oaktree Foundation
The Oaktree Foundation is an entirely youth-run international aid and development organisation. Our mission is to empower developing communities through education in a way that is sustainable. Oaktree has a vision of equal educational opportunity for all young people across the world, as we believe that education is a key to breaking the poverty cycle.

Sack-of-Acorns Generators

Hey guys,

Help team Sack of Acorns - Siv, Amy, Connie and Kate - raise funds to provide an education to hundreds of children in Papua New Guinea!

You can read the generic stuff below, but there's only 4 things you need to know:
1) Support us!
2) Due to its remote location, the community of Yangis in PNG has been deprived of schooling for almost 15 years. You'll be helping train teachers to give them one!
3) We'll be walking up and down the CBD with glow sticks on, Thurs night shopping on April 8 (if you want to join us, let us know, we're all bringing 2 friends each), with a flash mob on Pitt St.
4) Every $5, $10 or $2,000 donation would help!

Onto the fine print:

Generators from all over the country are hitting the track and walking around Sydney, Adelaide, Canberra, Melbourne, and Perth to raise $25,000 for the Oaktree Foundation’s development project in Papua New Guinea.

The Yangis community school is a living institution of development for the Yangis people. Oaktree has provided teacher scholarships to 8 individuals from the Yangis community. As a result, this year the school will open for the first time in over 10 years and reach some 200 children.

The primary aim of the program is to provide the community of Yangis with fully trained and accredited indigenous teachers to operate the local community school. By enabling local community members to train to become teachers, the project will ensure that the local school, which has been closed for over a decade following tribal conflict, can reopen and then operate in a sustainable manner.

As part of the NSW team, we will be walking up and down the CBD, including Pitt St, Circular Quay, George St and Darling Harbour, on the evening of 8 April 2010 (Thursday night shopping!). We'll also be doing an awesome media stunt on Pitt St mall. We have set ourselves the goal of raising $7,000 in NSW and would really appreciate it if you would donate to this worthy cause.

Donations are tax deductible too! It only takes 3 minutes to donate via this Online Giving page and is completely secure. Please feel free to also leave me a message on our message board!

Thank you so much =)

darling~ i love you ;)

2010-03-03T13:50:00.003+11:00

I never expected myself to fall in love again besides my ex whom I thought was my one and only... Surprisingly, I did fall in love again with a very caring, understanding and cute guy whom I got to know long time ago but only recently did we get to know each other better... Especially his full name which I got to know after coupling up =p

This cute guy of mine is Justin LKY. My knight in shining armor whom saved me once in desperate time of need ;D Will always remember that night. A blessing in disguise =D And whom made me really happy, sweet and appreciated. A guy whom I am lucky to have met, known and loved by. Justin L., I love you so damn much.

I can now say, you have won my heart more than a 100% with all your effort and love you have showered me with. My love and feelings for you have grown and am still growing day by day. Love you more and more so and hopefully will go on even tho we are so far apart now... Wishing and hoping for this will last, because I would love to live my life with you till the end.

-I love you-

over and out

Current thoughts

2009-12-27T19:54:00.002+11:00

Just saw this shout out in facebook:

"It's because I love you I had to let you go. Please forget me."

It then reminds me... if both parties love each other, and both wanting to free the other, then doesn't this means, both parties were actually killing each other and making each other feeling miserable? I know I am. I am still unsure of my past own doings, whether it was right or wrong but one thing for sure I can't undo it. Not like Microsoft Office, I can undo nearly 99% of whatever wrong typings I did.

Time passed, I thought I was ok with it, but I guess I am not. I can't keep you out of my mind, I can't forget you. Free-ing you isn't free-ing me. I was caged, am still caged. Because of the feelings I still have for you, I can't accept others or give myself another chance in trying to love someone else because, you are in my heart. The past, the present and the future.

People says time heals, yes it does. Not as pain as when it truly happened but doesn't mean it doesn't hurt anymore... Sighs~ YAARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH~!!! Shut it in, burry it down, lock lock lock lock~

22nd Birthday~

dinner gown that covers my fat legs, make me look taller, accentuate my waist and bare my back =)
comfortable heels and yet stunningly beautiful... hard to find a pair that have both of this qualities...
dinner bag, cute and creative... yet also useful...
jacket/coat... those new trendy coats for social/office wear =)
jewellery... genuine stuffs please because... those who knows me well... my body do not handle silver well... as in not that I will get allergy reactions, but because those won't last long on me... colour changes or breakage n stuffs... so you will only see me wear a few times and it will be gone @@
hrm what else? basically I have all I want ;) haha

Relationship?

2009-10-08T16:46:00.003+11:00

It has been nearly 3 months of me being single. The definition of single in my context means that I lost the authority to say I am in a relationship, authority to say I have a boyfriend, to lost someone dear whereby I would not be in the position I wanted to be in. My way of expressing myself in words tend to fluctuate to a degree whereby I can't even understand what I am trying to express...

Nothing really change in my life except that I am not in the position to call one person whenever I have the urge to call, and even if I do call, my call might not be welcomed and therefore I always resist to call. Next on line, that I used to call whenever I needed someone I could talk to would be T but somehow that seems out of the question because of how I felt like I am a depressing girl with only depressing thoughts which in a way drive people away from me.

Luckily now I have J who I can call but then my credit for this month is nearing to an end therefore I can't call anyone to chat like I wanted to which end up me having thoughts in my mind to myself, which I would have preferred if it could actually automate and transfer themselves as posts in this blog of mine therefore allowing me to read them in an organized and clear manner.

It is surprising to me to feel like a failure for a period of time and then to have like 'I am loved' kind of feeling. If someone comes up to me and express their feelings towards me and asked me to be their girlfriend... will I accept it and accept them and to be in a relationship again? I am not sure whether a part of me is still hanging on to the fact that my ex and I might have another chance in the near future. Maybe a part of me hope so, subconsciously but I know it would be impossible... right?

Anyway, why hang on? I have no idea why... or maybe I do. I love him too damn much. Love or obsession? How do you differentiate this two? I do not stalk him like a lunatic right? It has been years so it could be hard to let go, and also the fact that I can't understand a lot of things about the break up which makes me so uncertain what went wrong and how it can turn out so wrong...

I might portray myself as a cheerful girl but I think if you do follow my blog, somehow I am not that kind of girl these days? I lost my love, I lost my goal, my driving force to live life to the fullest. Or maybe I emphasis too much on love in my life that I neglect other important aspect of life... and what is that then?

Well if loving someone so deeply don't get me anywhere then why do so and hurt so many people on the way? Why? I have a better solution. Make life simple and make the person who loves you be happy. Maybe you will be too? So maybe, when I am ready, and during the right time, you asked me the question, for me to be your girlfriend, I might, with the inclusion of the fact that you really seriously LOVE me.

Because I do believe in developing feelings and love for a person by communication, interaction and to get to know a person deeper. When you fell in love with someone, it gets deeper when time passes. It is the same thing of being friends, then couples, and slowly to the next level. Feelings develop over time. Like how I can like you now and love you tomorrow. Just that distance, in a way, act as an obstacle which restrain the communication part and therefore from friends people can be stranger once again, and so from couples to friends...

I sound like a lunatic now. Bless me @@

And we went to Big W to walk around...

My camwhoring starts @@

I somehow got an idea. Since I think I have passion in interior designing, fashion and photography... I might as well design my own line of clothes, make them, open up a boutique and use myself as the model =p I will interior design my own boutique, special lighting, and hang potraits of me around the walls. I need professional make-up artist and a professional photographer or me myself to shoot photographs of me in the clothes I designed =P Cool? XD I can be my own model... I don't look too bad... I have ok figure... I just need enhancement like make-up artist and professional photographer skills =D

Only a very few remember what life was like before, and who
was always by their side in the most painful situations.

這也是人的腦會如何做當情況有所變動。只有少許人會記得他或她之前的生活及誰會在身旁當他或她處在困境的時候

Life Is a
Gift

生命是一份禮物

Today
before you say an unkind word - Think of someone who can't speak.

今天，當你要講一句不善之言－－請想想那些無法講話的人

Before
you complain about the taste of your food - Think of someone
who has nothing to eat.

當你要埋怨食物的味道時－－請想想那些沒有食物吃的人

Before
you complain about your husband or wife - Think of someone
who's crying out to GOD for a companion.

當你要埋怨你的先生或太太時－－請想想那些在向上天哭訴要一個伴侶的人

Today
before you complain about life - Think of someone who died
too early on this earth.

今天，當你要埋怨生活時－－請想想那些太早離開人世間的人

Before
you complain about your children - Think of someone who
desires children but they're barren.
當你要埋怨小孩時－－請想想那些渴望小孩而無能生育的人

Before
you argue about your dirty house someone didn't clean or
sweep - Think of the people who are living in the streets.

當你要爭論沒有人清理屋子時－－請想想那些住在街邊的人
Before
whining about the distance you drive Think of someone who
walks the same distance with their feet.

當你在哀訴駕駛的路程－－請想想那些同樣的路程以代步的人

And when
you are tired and complain about your job - Think of the
unemployed, the disabled, and those who wish they had your
job.
當你很疲備而埋怨工作時－－請想想那些無工作，殘疾的，及那些多麼希望擁有你這份工作的人

But
before you think of pointing the finger or condemning
another - Remember that not one of us is without sin...

當你想要指著人或互相譴責時－－請記得沒有一個人是無罪

And when
depressing thoughts seem to get you down - Put a smile on
your face and think: you're alive and still
around.
當壓抑的念頭讓你無法振作時－－請你笑一笑想想：你還活著存在世間！
==========================

I PRAY
THIS MOVES AROUND

THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE...

我祈禱這訊息能夠繼續傳至全人類.................

Too beautiful not to share........

Out and About

2009-09-30T18:30:00.005+10:00

Hey guys, I am back =) Learned to tolerate with my DAMN BLOODY SLOW CONNECTION. Hopefully by tomorrow Virgin Broadband will give me my monthly 5GB internet allowance @@ SIGHS~ I used up this month's by downloading Moulin Rouge (J Nie's suggestion and I have to say, this movie is touching) and Gossip Girl Season 3 Episode 1 T.T Pathetic me...

Anyway, you guys should have heard about the dust storm that landed in Sydney last week right? Well I was too blur then, didn't know better and breathed in loads of dust, therefore falling sick, cough, flu and a big bloody ulcer on my tongue most probably due to loads of Maltese and Rich Chocolate Mud Cake. I can't resist chocolates... Having difficulties eating but with aunt's delicious home-cooked fish porridge, I survived =) Although I have to say, sadly, I have to work Saturday till Monday while I am feeling sicky... and during my semester mid-term break... DAMN!!!

My sicky face...

Anyway, because of my job, I get paid. Because I get paid, I get the cash to splurge. I am an independent girl in a material world. In my whole life, so far, I used my parent's hard earned money for my own satisfaction and also my university fees, living under the care of my aunt and everything else, I paid for with my own effort. Well, nothing much to be proud of because I know, what I have gone through can't be compared to what my parents and aunts have gone through to be where they are in life right now. Older generation strive harder in life compared to us, right now with such luxuries in life...

I know the value of money, if I can't earn it, I don't spend it- keeping it under control and in budget except when I felt impulsive.... when all hell break lose~ Nowadays, I can't help myself but splurge on eBay and also shopping mindlessly here and there. I felt restless I guess or just 'out of control'. Bought 6 items on eBay and today, another top... enough for CNY? =p There goes my hard earn money @@

Weee, it is me =) Got ready to go out with aunt. First, to her friend's house. Then, to her taxation lady's place and all about for the rest of the day...

Went to Factory Outlet today. 2 tops attracted my attention at JACQUI.E. Heard this brand is well known but not to me and anyway, the items were made in China @@ This first top doesn't fit me perfectly... I have a muscular build since I was very active in sports during my high school days...

And the second top. Oh I am wearing my new shoes I bought in Malaysia few months back, during the sales =) Can't resist to keep it any longer XD

I bought this top, but a size smaller because this S size, made my boobs look like it's sagging @@ Guess how much they were selling this top for? $69.95... Craziness...

My splurge of the day~

And me buying the pancake mix =D With just $1.99, you can make 15 pancakes of your own. How cool and easy is that? Oh and the top that I was wearing, was from Topshop where YQ used to work =D Which brings back loads of memories... somehow... Ops, and mummy, I bought it using my own money =D Not yours so no worries! Hahaha

I guess females are born to shop and indulge while guys are born to work hard and support the females' spending habit. This way, benefit them both because the female will be happy, the male will be empowered and felt in charge or achieved some sort of achievement. But in this new era, since female are less likely to stay home and do only housework, shop and enjoy, they earn a living on their own and much more in charge in their own spending habit, that maybe in a way, made the males felt less in charge or less self-confidence? Somehow, this thought crop up in my mind when I was reading this novel I recently bought... So maybe I should be less independent and be more dependent on males? Oh wait, I already am =) Thanks daddy for bringing me up and mummy too XD

More of me~ =)

Rabbit jade thingy that I bought long ago. I was conned then. I really was too naive to believe the sales lady's words that it really was made out of JADEITE... Bought rabbit for me, snake for dad and sis, horse for mum but no dog for bro I think? Because I know he won't appreciate it and would nag me for spending money on useless stuffs- wasting money... Not like I am using his money or parents but my own =.=""" So even if I was conned, I should be the one feeling the down side of it @@ Then because of my hobby, I made the hanger myself and attached it to the rabbit and here goes my new hanger-keychain for my 2GB pendrive =) In the photo, I was tired so there goes my un-photogenic piece of picture~

Cheap Pasta

2009-09-25T17:01:00.003+10:00

Yesterday, my friend, Jason brought me and his friends to this franchise in Broadway for tasty cheap pasta! Students get 20% discount =)

3 of us ordered these and later, someone else joined us...

After that, 4 of us went to Easy Way. I bought Almond with Aloe Vera Milk Tea =D

The guys planned to play soccer at 3pm with Bonnie. I, on the other hand, want to travel home so I can reach home earlier...

Victoria Park near uni...

And my lunch for today since I don't feel quite well... Tasty and yummy pork liver and intestine porridge.

witness the orange dust all over this poor car... and every other car...

Dust/ Dirt...

And I... turning orange soon, covered in dust... Urgh my throat felt ill, I can't seem to breathe properly, somehow wishing I seriously can't breathe and drop dead by the road side...

Bye to me then...

-damn the weather-

500 Days of Summer

2009-09-22T20:02:00.006+10:00

Drinking my free booze! It was so good! My first like-able beer =D It was light with 4.5% alcohol content but too much bubbles =.="""

Yesterday, while walking back home from the train station, I camwhored. Oh, on the way, I unknowingly farted... Damn embarassing... Hopefully no one was walking behind me then... WTF @@

Reached my apartment, and I noticed this beautiful flower-plant =)

Spring is here!!! XD

And today, I watched 500 Days of Summer with my aunt. One ticket costs $14.50 (student price), 2 tickets cost $29 which means ~MYR90!!! WTH!!! Anyway, I watched it for free because I volunteered for some research thing and was given student ticket for HOYTS =p

The movie was BORING!!!

I was exhausted.
tired.
depressed.

I was so hoping for some romance... but was greeted with boring-ness and more sadness!!! I felt a connection with Tom. Some line in the movie stands out:

meant to be
you didn't observe your surroundings (I think so the line sounds like this)
but the person was just not you (I think so it was like this...)

Anyway, the ending of this movie was good. I like it.

Open Eyed

2009-09-20T12:37:00.004+10:00

Yesterday night, my Singaporean friends and I went out for dinner at Sydney City. Grace and I just had our Financial Accounting A mid semester exam during the morning. She seems happy about it since I think she did pretty well since she put in a lot of hard work in preparing for it by making notes. Unlike me, lack of motivation, didn't do my best in studying for it... I think I might fail- was extremely depressed till I watched 2 episodes of Family Outing and I can't stop laughing like a hyena. *Please let me pass T.T

I was extremely surprised last night. Remember the saying that Australia will be dead after 5pm? I think the saying should be changed and should only to be applied to rural/ suburban areas! When I got on the train last night, it was packed. Everyone were heading to the city.

Anyway, we went to this Japanese restaurant named Fujiya located opposite World Square.

The dish Grace and I wanted. Raw octopus with wasabi =D Very unique flavour and I like it!!!

Takoyaki with octopus inside. I prefer the takoyaki with eel that was sold in Mid Valley?

Guess what?

Eel with rice! =P It looks nice but I prefer the eel set in Kobow restaurant (Korean). It tastes much better and better worth for money.

This... is a disappointment. It is just like leftover rice, left to harden after making it into that shape =.="""

Grilled octopus. We were so disappointed with this. In the photos it looks so huge and when it came, the octopus didn't even fill the plate! We compared the size of the octo with the spoon we had T.T

Last but not least, beef! I was so surprised when Stephanie cooked the beef in like less than a minute for a piece! I bake but I seldom cook dishes for meals so I thought it will be like chicken- to take so much time to be cooked. I learned that beef can be cooked real fast and should not be cooked for long- when the colour changes from reddish to brown means it is ready.

Group picture + photographer JJ after we had out dessert. I bought 2 scoops of ice-cream at one of the shops at Dixson Street (a street filled with restaurants or bakeries at both side of the street)

Overall, it was okay but I am so not going back to that restaurant for dinner! The portion of the food served was so small and can be considered as pricey!

-love good food-

Huge Sweet Strawberries

2009-09-18T16:34:00.002+10:00

Because my neighbour likes my scones so much, she gave me one punnet of huge and sweet strawberries from West Australia!!! And also asked me to bake more XD YAY =)

-yummy-

Yawn~

2009-09-18T14:26:00.004+10:00

Out for lunch~

Apartments...

That building there= Hurstville Library...

On the way...

Arrived at this Canton Restaurant. My favourite place for my favourite tendon egg noodles ;) Camwhored while waiting XD

Interior display @@

Since it is my favourite dish, I can't help it but indulge in it, straight away after it was served therefore forgetting to take photos of it o.O Here was the leftover that I can't finish- huge serving!

Then aunt and I came to this shop where they sell ready-to-steam-to-eat-kinda-food... Aunt bought some pau for me for breakfast tomorrow morning =)

While she pays for it, I waited impatiently... I noticed I got fatter at my tights T.T

And we continued walking to find other groceries... Mundane life @@

-someone please sweep me off my feet-

Life goes on...

2009-09-17T21:53:00.006+10:00

Assignments and exams all coming up @@ Some done, passed up and some coming soon! Sighs...

This is how my second bed looks like right now @@

But then again, I have time to procrastinate. Most of the time wasted on Facebook and eBay (which I spent $30.23 on 6 items I don't really need) ;( And somehow managed to baked some scones =)

Hot scones from the oven!!! Butter+ walnuts scones =D

Yummy =) Eat it with France blueberry jam since I didn't buy whipped cream =p

And the current me. Felt like posting this up cause I think I looked damn thin here ;p

New Booze in Town!!!

2009-09-16T17:40:00.003+10:00

VB Raw_ Limited Edition. New booze in town- fresh, dry lager brewed with 4 simple ingredients (barley, hops, water and yeast). I am participating in a beer research so I got all this free booze! ;) Lolz weee but then again, I hope it tastes nice and not yucky @@ If you get what I mean...

Simple and nice packaging... I have to carry this heavy box from USYD all the way back home @@' URGH!!!

Marriage

2009-09-09T21:18:00.002+10:00

What will you girls do if a guy, you knew by name years ago, asked you for marriage out of a sudden?

He promised to treat you like a princess. You will never need to do the cooking, cleaning and such. All you need to do is to take care of the children later in life. No need to worry about financial situation, but will be given enough to shop and have fun. You will have all the time in the world to relax, have fun and stay happy...

But, you do not have feelings for him. You do not even know him. You have different backgrounds. And the promise made is just promise...

It sounds unrealistic but yet tempting. I would have taken up the offer if I had given up on love completely. I am still hoping =)

2009-09-02T13:53:00.003+10:00

Sourced from: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v44/mars4/webcomics/lh07.gif

Someone offered to be my boyfriend although he knows that it means I will be using him to heal my wound. It could also be seen as him using me to change his status from single to in a relationship. But then again, he argues, when someone loves you, care for you and put in effort for you, in time to come, I would eventually fall in love with him.

It makes sense and also no sense at all at the same time. Interesting offer but then again I am not that kind of girl who needs this kind of offer. It would only make my life a disaster and I ain't a bitch to hurt him. Right?

Anyway I believe in karma. I know I did hurt people who loves me before and therefore I got myself into a similar hurtful situation. All bad karma should be paid in full... I hope. Hoping for good karma to spring into life starting from now.

No one's fault...

A reason to let go...
Giving up...
A need to live...
Moving on...

Tears

2009-08-12T18:47:00.002+10:00

Heartache,
Brought this on myself
Being a selfish bitch
Destroying everything
Forgive and forget ain't that simple
It's just life
Prideless and worthless me
You must have been mad at me
So mad that I can feel it
Felt ashamed
Till I don't think I can face you anymore
Wishing I know what's on your mind
But I don't...
Killing me softly
Day by day
I love you...

One Month Plus Passed...

2009-08-08T23:22:00.002+10:00

A period of time has passed...

I have been long gone from posting something on this blog of mine...

Thoughts lingered but I never get to put it in words...

I guess I can never do that entirely because its impossible to describe...

Been through heaven, been through hell...

Felt like I nearly died but thoughts of parents, family, friends and future hold me back...

Happiness for so I longed...

Hoping, wishing, dreaming... one day... for that day...

I am a fool...

Thoughts and Emotions

2009-07-14T21:25:00.002+10:00

I have been back in Malaysia for 3 weeks. I can say I am happy being loved by my parents and family members and to get to see my old friends. I love being home, being around familiar surroundings but sadly time is ending. Happiness do not last long. In a week plus I have to fly back to Sydney to continue my studies. This past few days I have been crying. I do not want to leave home and not my parents. I came back and noticed they got older. They look young for their age but still I noticed that they really got older then a year ago. I love you daddy and mummy and I wish that both of you will live a happy and long-life with a chance given to me so I could take good care of you guys.

T.T Maid stole my cherish-able things...

2009-07-07T22:20:00.005+10:00

My maid's contract ended few months back and so she needs to go back to Indonesia. I was in Sydney at that time and not home- Malaysia to send her off. I came back to Malaysia on the 22nd June and found out... one by one... stuffs that has been stolen from me by her...

Stuffs stolen:

GUESS handbag as shown in the photo above (Honey gave it to me for my 20th birthday, and I treasured it so much that I used it only 2/3 times and kept it like brand new in my wardrobe T.T)
A set of bedsheets in pink with la brassiere as the theme (My favourite...)
Starbucks employee's black t-shirt, 2 promotional yellow summer t-shirts, 2 aprons and the hat (My momento-es for my happy times as an employee in SBUX 064)
Red long necklace that belongs to mum's since when she was young and I used it once during a tadika performace...
My piggy bank's money...

I am so sad! She took everything I treasure and like...

The world is a scary place. One person can have 2 faces and you will never know till it's too late. Never trust anyone easily...

Sleep

2009-05-29T17:10:00.004+10:00

When was your last time of indulging in sleep till noon or more than 10 hours of sleep per day? I thought we were allowed to indulge in that during our teens but am I still considered a teen? My aunt made me feel bad for wasting to much time on sleeping and knock me back to reality. Imagine how much money I can earn by working my arse off and not using that precious time to sleep. I can do something much worthwhile like studying too...

Is growing up means forgoing the long hours of indulgement in sleep? Sighs... reality sucks!

-I love you sleep-

Happiness

2009-05-28T00:10:00.002+10:00

What is true meaning of happiness?

I guess it would be to live life happily where you can genuinely smile and laugh and say you are happy =D

Life is what you make it to be...

So make full use of it and put in some effort to make it a happy one =p

Like how I used to complain I am not happy here in Sydney. It was because I do not let people into my life and I did not let Sydney offer me what it can offer me. I shut myself out of all the beautiful things in life in Sydney.

Somehow, today I was enlightened... I can only find happiness if I let myself to... Open up and accept what is given, appreciate. I have a lot of friends here but I can say I did not let all into my life. I should stop shutting people out and letting them in. I can not hold onto my old friends and keep wishing that I was the same old me with my old life. Reality strikes, I am older, and I need to grow up. Surroundings changed and also the people around me.

Sydney is beautiful in its on way but I tend to judge the negative side which I dislike and of course it do not do me good. From now on, I will love the positive side I perceived Sydney to have and be happy =D

-Life is what I make it to be-

Sex and the City

2009-05-25T12:28:00.003+10:00

I have been watching the Sex and the City's series and damn it's good. I like how Carrie write stuffs about relationships besides about sex. I think at times I thought the same but not as creative as her to put it in words and in columns that interest people. I am still watching Season 4's dramas XD

Besides that, I love the fact they have the financial power to sustain their spending habits for branded goods, daily clubbing and parties and outings for meals. I wish one day I could do that but not the single part. It seems too sad to be single when you are that old... Although having such good friends will helps loads and make it less worse then it already is.

Carries is my idol- well kind of but the fact she cheats on herAidan kind of pisses me off. He was such a great boyfriend and Carries was lucky because he gave her another chance. Damn I like Aidan. XD He is too good to be true =p

Cool Lecture

2009-05-20T14:35:00.003+10:00

I had this lecture today called People and Organisation. I expected this lecture to be like every other lectures I had for this unit, which was to be interesting and yet at the same time boring. But today was different. He showed us 2 clips of Twilight movie!!! To differentiated the subcultures that was shown between the vampire line. You can see 2 distinct subcultures in a culture as to be seen during the baseball match and when the 3 other aggressive vampires intrude the game...

Next would be a topic regarding expectations of the future role for a job and what you have to do to keep your job- the requirements. Is it solely depending on the evaluations student gave that he has to beg us for good evaluation to keep his job? At the time he suddenly went on both his knees and begged me! His acting skills was so real with the exact correct facial expression facing directly at me (faces a ruler apart?). I was shocked and surprised that I am no longer dreaming about the cute vampire guy! It felt like when someone is proposing to marry me but much better cause he was not on one knee but both o.O Hahaha I am so in fantasy land. Not the fact that I want him to marry me but the fact of the action of kneeling on both knees. I don't think anyone would be willing to do that right? I don't think it will ever happen to me again XD

-I had fun tho =p-

Happiness Is What Everyone Needs But Do Not Have Enough!

2009-05-18T19:39:00.002+10:00

Woot! Something made me happy. Uni life equals to hectic-ness and stress but yet when you get great results for your work, it makes your day. I never actually liked working in groups but at the end of the day you know the work done will be much better than the work done individually (although with all the drawbacks of using up loads of your precious time and to be compromising with others).

I like my MKTG 1001 group! I was chosen by 2 of them to be in their group after everyone tried to 'sell' themselves to others in the room- as a part of learning marketing XD. Our group assignment about a case study on Mrs Mac's Pies scored us 17.5% over 20% for this unit of study! WOW!!! I did not expect that but would love to thank you MKTG 1001 group members!!! You guys made it possible =)

Love Story

2009-05-13T12:03:00.003+10:00

There was once a girl, F, who couldn't care less of her surroundings. She was ignorant of others that she do not know besides her friends and her friends' friends. One day, she went out with this girlfriend of hers, P for a movie. During the outing, P met her boyfriends and the boyfriends' friends and so they got together to have a drink. Since F was with them, being all freaking out not knowing any of them, followed blindly and quietly.

After the outing, when F was on her way home, she received an sms. It was from a guy back then. At first F do not know who it was and slowly and gradually remembers who it is that smsed her. F made a friend with this guy, T and they kept in touch through sms. Time passes by, the sms F gotten became sweeter and was asked to be T's girlfriend.

F being naive and new to all this said yes. After saying yes, F regretted. What has she done? F was happy no doubt. Who wouldn't when a guy asked you to be his girlfriend. It means he loves you right? They were a couple on mobile. Maybe F was new to all this, unsure of her own feelings, and scared of commitments, ended up the mobile relationships a thousand time but was persuaded to stay on and give it a chance.

Till a few months later, F really ended it and hurt T's feelings. During that few months, F learnt that T has a lot of past girlfriends, smokes and his past but also learnt that he changed a lot for F. How far of it is true, F wouldn't know... When the mobile relationship ended, F was relieved but yet she knows she had hurt a guy's feelings and thought T would never ever want to see her again.

After a period of time, T showed up in front of F. F always practice tennis after her B tuition. He came with his guy friends who was also my tennis friends and bought me breads since exercising would be tiring and would make me hungry. He also took the iniatiatives to play tennis with F. F was so so so shocked and touched. F never dated T, did not gave him a chance and did not meet him once after the first encounter. Their once mobile relationship is like friends on mobile, nothing more nothing less but just a little bit of sweet talks.

F felt so sorry for T for hurting him back then. For not giving him a chance and for not opening up. F was scared, unsure and unsecure for knowing someone like that and having a relationship build on first encounter. F would not know how to trust by that way but prefer to know a person and then give that person a chance if F felt she is ready. F also felt happy for T for finding his special someone and having a great life. F has found her special someone too. F and T are now friends, and luckily T did not keep a grudge towards F.

-If it is meant to be, it'll be =)-

-T would be a very caring and loving boyfriend-

Tutorials

2009-05-13T11:54:00.002+10:00

Sighs... I dislike it when they take into account tutorial participation as 10% of the unit of study marking scheme. The class is big, and there is no set rules of how much you talk in class that would be counted as contributed to the subject. I said something and thought of giving everyone else the chance to talk and was told I did not contribute enough to be counted as contributed. I need to talk more. It was not fair. Why can't it be counted as contributed when you are presence for the tutorial and you did the homework? It would be much fair for everyone. I think my tutor hates me =(

-I wanted to know my results for tutorial participation and see how he evaluates me because I think I am entitled to at least 9%-

-I did all the work except for the first tutorial since I did not write down the answers to the homework question but did it in my memory-

-I attended all tutorials-

-Frustrated-

ePortfolio

2009-04-28T00:19:00.003+10:00

Today I spent 2 hours volunteering to have a trial session using ePortfolios. I tried the product of Drive2Learn and PebblePad. I can say I like both of them but prefer PebblePad more because of the interesting graphics and layout it displays. I was late so I think I missed the introduction. I wonder whether my uni will start using one of them to assist students? I hope so because I can't wait to get my hands on them!!!

Basically it works as a ePortfolio whereby you can creat your own CV using its systems. Easy and fast to use. You can store it, modify and send out to whoever you want to and whenever. Besides that, you can modify it into a webpage. Other benefits would be you can use it to create your own blog, webfolio, or even use it like Facebook storing all your information, past events, photos and such. Seriously useful and I LOVE it!

P/S: I got 2 Super Saver tickets to watch any movies at HOYTS for volunteering!!! Tho it is not free, meaning I still need to pay student price @@

-nothing is free in this world... sighs-

Crazy World

2009-04-22T16:30:00.002+10:00

You were rude
So rude you were disliked
You came barging in
Cutting turns

You came back
Shouting and scolding
Complaining and annoying
Disturbing the peace

We explained in words
You don't get it
Causing trouble
Over a dollar

Creating chaos
Throwing things not yours
Stealing apples
Causing a commotion

How embarrassing is that
How humiliating
We laughed for that moment
To have seen

Mental illness
We call that
Hoping you get help
Regain peace again

Hai Nam Chicken With Rice

2009-04-21T17:18:00.002+10:00

Today I have a group meeting to discuss our soon-to-be-due-ed assignment at 1pm at Sci-Tech Library. Marketing groupie- my best group ever for group project! I still remember last semester's INFS 1000 group... Bad memories- not that bad but...

Before that, had lunch with aunt at Dixon, Hurstville.

The place looks empty and gloomy but I wanted to try someplace new =/

I ordered Hai Nam Chicken with Rice. It costs $10. Imagine that you can have 5 of this back in Malaysia with $10. I regretted eating here. The food was expensive, the rice was 'stayed-overnight kind of rice' and the chicken was tasteless although it seems fresh. The sauce for the chicken= thumbs up and the soup was nice too cause too much of seasonings?

I enjoyed it cause I don't need to pay =p

I bought this bracelet! Tell me it looks so good you want to have it =p

Rainy days... Photo taken at 4 something pm... The sky got dark early this days =(

Alzheimer

2009-04-19T18:17:00.003+10:00

Past few months I have been having memory lost- long/short/brief term. Some were so bad that I left my friend waiting for me at uni's entrance for minutes while I, on the other hand was in the train back home. I forgotten about the walk with her to the train station... Of course, she was so angry with me she ignored me for a couple of days...

I fear that I have Alzheimer. My memory is seriously getting worst. I fear I will forget all my past memories with my family and friends. I treasure those moments in my life:

First guy I know in my life Wee Chong in tadika. Didn't see him again and thought I never will until Standard 6 at Mrs Ong's tuition but he forgotten me. I know because I was so surprised to meet him back but he just glimpsed away not noticing me.
Second guy, Ken Wee. Got to know him from his mum's tuition and later for car pooling. His mum also teaches me in school. I had feelings for him once till he coupled up with Nicole.
Third guy should be Nicky Gan. I can't remember how I know him. There was once, during CNY, my girlfriends came over to my house and since Nicky was online, I suddenly typed to him on msn that I will be over his house for ang pows with friends. I brought everyone with me. When we were all there, it felt so weird!!! The parents were there too. o.O Luckily Lip Jin came over (I think Nicky called him over to save his arse!) What a day =.=""" Sorry Nicky... you live too near me XD
Hai Lik- I don't know how but I got your number. I called you on your birthday, wished you Happy Birthday and introduce myself. You must have freaked out but heck that is how I know you @@
Kok Hong- I once had an outing with Wei Yin and somehow she met someone she knows and he knows you and you saw me and we had a yam cha session- a brief one... and then you got my number and...
Jason Lau- I can't remember... but a brief outing for bowling whereby I brought Kei Ching along? That was also how I got to know Aizad.

Kevin Ho- I know you through online (MIRC-Bigmouth). One day we chatted and found out we were in the same Maths Tuition- Mr Goh's. After the next particular tuition, I asked around to see who are you and was pointed to you who just came out from Mr Goh's house. That is how I met you. It has been such a long time since I know you right? Your best friend, Wei Kuan was so close to Kei Ching and always asks you to pass Vanila Coke or chocolates to her in tuition. I know since I sat next to her.
We also chat a lot on the phone till the wee hours in the morning. I had feelings for you and I know you know that but at that time you confided in me your feelings for someone else and later leads to me being your kai mui. I guess this gives me a reason to be close to you although you have a girlfriend/ soon to have. Don't get me wrong. I am happy when you got who you wanted.
Because then I can be freed but still loving you as a kor- a very good one indeed. I thought I will never or don't want to have any feelings towards anyone in my life just yet but somehow I got to know JE in the library. Feelings developed and loads of events took place...
The day before SPM's results were out, Wee Chong, Edwin, Yee Quan, Kelly, Ching Er, Kei Ching, Wei Lee and I stayed over at Allson Klana Resort since Wei Lee has the voucher for attached rooms. The day for the released of SPM's results, early in the morning you came to the resort and fetched me. I went to your school to take your results and you came to mine and took mine. Thank you for being with me at that time because I was so scared. After that we just went car-air eating. I still remembered your mood and expression. You weren't happy.
I still remember your hug. To comfort me while I was crying. It was after Carl's and Federick's Christmas party, at the mamak stall behind Jusco S2. I was sad and depressed because of JE... I can say it is never easy having feelings for someone and not being able to know what the someone was thinking or feeling towards you. I guess after the few drinks, my emotions was released way much easier and I can't help it but cry.
You let me stay over at your place in Subang so that I can take my IELTS exam the next morning, drove to to the centre and back... A stupid thing happened whereby when I reached Subang by train, you drove me and the girls back to Seremban for yam cha at A&W and back to Subang at 3am @@ Damn crazy. I remembered being caught by my parent's friends at A&W for not being in Subang.
You supported me all the way till JE and I became a couple. How long is that? Did you realise that you were supporting me? Loads of things happened. At a point in life, where I was new to everything. When I was lonely and lost, struggling, studying and working, coping with life, you gave a nuclear bomb to me through your blog. It made me cried for days even when I was in uni, in class. I can't understand what happened, why and how things can changed so quickly... You said I am the one who changed for the worst but you didn't tell me what made you think so... I can say... there was a big misunderstanding.
I tried calling and chat through msn but I guess you just want me out of your life. I successfully called your mobile once, you picked it up and talked to me for a while but there is not a second call being picked up by you. I guess you know it is me then...
When did I know you? Form 4? It has been a long time... and we just ended up as strangers again. I guess it is worth it =) You are happy now with your girlfriend.

Timothy and Eu Lei- How did I know you guys? It must be that I know one of you then I got to know the other XD You guys were like twins, always together! Timothy I tag you! Blog something similar to this blog so I know how I know you. If I am not mistaken should be by the forum created by Yip Jen? I am active at that point in time in that forum. I think that is how I know Carl and Federick too right? But when was the first time I met you? If I am not mistaken it should be in the library too, the time I got to know JE XD
I remember the days where you would come over to my house and fetch me out. I remembered once, when I was working at Starbucks, you asked me to join you guys to eat at Sushi King with Eu Lei's sms voucher! I can't stay long since I only have a short break T.T I want more sushi!!! Then there was once after a night movie, the door to the roof carpark- Jusco was locked so we had to walk up through the road used by the cars to get to the roof. You and Eu Lei were my bodyguards then. Both walking beside me, so tall and were wearing black? I would like to assume so since it was so dark and scary T.T

Holidays Gone!!!

2009-04-17T18:27:00.002+10:00

Sighs. Holidays ending soon. I am so sad! Time passed by too quickly and I wasted most of the time watching movies myself in my room T.T Movies that I watched:

Underworld
Underworld Revolution
Jersey Girl
The Bucket List
Penelope
Big
and loads of others which I can't remember because I deleted them once I am done with them... My laptop is out of capacity to store them @@

Oh and Race to Witch Mountain! The only movie I watched with someone... I am pathetic? I can say that I appreciate having someone to watch a movie with and would like to say thank you so much. I am miserably lonely!!!

Last Thursday, I spent most of my day working and watching movies. My manager begged me to work which made me felt so bad that I had to work. I didn't regret working because I bought loads of sweet strawberries for the special price of $0.50 XD I love my senior! I think there was around 500g?

I tried to catch up on studies but I am too lazy and so I wasted my time procrastinating and not doing anything progressive =( I wish time stops or a longer holidays...

-I want to graduate and work and so I only need to focus on work-

Dating

2009-04-16T00:02:00.002+10:00

Dating is any social activity undertaken by, typically, two people with the aim of each assessing the other's suitability as their partner in an intimate relationship or as a spouse. The word refers to the act of meeting and engaging in some mutually agreed upon social activity. Traditional dating activities include entertainment or a meal.

In many cultural traditions, a date may be arranged by a third party, who may be a family member, acquaintance, or professional matchmaker. Recently internet dating has become popular.

Although dating etiquette in Western culture has become more relaxed during the twentieth century, there are considerable differences between social and personal values. For example, when an activity costs money (for example, a meal), traditionally the man was expected to pay; but in recent times the practice of "going Dutch" (splitting the expenses) has become common and acceptable.

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dating, 15th of April 2009)

Basically, going out with the opposite sex to have fun ( http://in.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20060910221422AAMVkhb, 15th of April 2009) is not considered as dating- opposed to the above. Fuh~ I thought I dated many guys and girls o.O Which means I am loyal to my boyfriend!

I was thinking about this after watching the movie "My Best Friend's Girl"...

-Should we all date more people before settling for one?-

Holidays

2009-04-15T14:28:00.003+10:00

Sighs and I thought I can go to Melbourne for holidays during my Mid-Sem Break but so many things pop up =/

I have to go to work this Thursday. My manager called me this morning.

I have to catch up on my studies since when uni starts, I have loads of group assignments to start and also my ECON 1001 Mid Term paper. I have to hang in there for 6 weeks and then FINALS and I should be on my way back to Malaysia.

My friend stayed over last Monday night. She gave me loads of videos and stuffs so I got to watch some- I just can't control myself =(

Apple(s) Picking

2009-04-14T17:37:00.004+10:00

Yesterday Grace came over to my place. Aunt and her friend took us to Blue Mountains to find apple farms. Mission= Apple Picking. We went to at least 3 different apple farms and the cost for a kilogram of apples range between $2 to $3.50. I consider that expensive because you can get it for a cheaper price in the city- I guess the enjoyment and freshness of the apples being picked by your own effort makes it worth it. I had fun. I ate an apple picked by my aunt and it was so sweet, fresh and delicious! It was also washed with rain drops because it was raining.

I will elaborate more with photos...

The first apple farm =) We were not allowed to pick apples here. Reason, because we are Asians?

I am o.O

Grace and I

Next apple farm. The best of the day! Huge place and loads of Malaysian Malay students came here by bus/trip for $36 per person @@

No Admittance... ops I didn't see that and so I went in =p

Grace and I again XD

My turn to climb the ladder XD Noticed my arse? Damn huge- teach me how to lose fat there the natural way T.T

I am on top of the WORLD!

And I was so interested to camwhore with this machine o.O

Third farm has Persimmons!!! Too bad it was not ripe yet for picking =(

-see you soon-

Happy Easter

???

2009-04-12T19:17:00.001+10:00

A face I don’t want to see
Keeps returning to me
I hope it will soon pass me by
Extra roads I have wanted
Won’t bring me back to the start
How did I ever meet you?
If I told you all my troubles
It would be pointless like shower gel
Cleaning the memories
Exposing love and envy
Who is wrong, wrong becomes right
My heart wants this precious love
Why did you go far away
Without saying “no” I feel a loss
Ten yesterdays, bring nine memories
Without you, I struggle with confusion
One more day, love will bring us together
I feel it’s getting closer
Remembering yesterday, it will come true
Without you, I struggle with confusion
One more day, love will bring us together

A song by Aaron Kwok, played in a movie called And I Hate You So...

Thoughts and More Thoughts

2009-04-12T17:07:00.006+10:00

Feeling really lonely nearly everyday. Even if I am with people I still feel alone. I guess I closed the door to my heart to people once I arrived to this new life. I lost myself. I want to find myself. I couldn't identify myself anymore... Who am I? Why am I here? I used to be happy but the happiness that I have now is a fake.

Leaving with a relative brings so much benefits and comfort. You have someone who knows you well, able to cope with your nonsense and behaviour, watch out for you and cooks for you just like a mum. But sometimes maybe that is not what I need. I do not have a normal uni student life whereby you have roomies and housemates and a teenage life.

I was being taken of and I am grateful for that because somehow my life was easier. I don't need to worry about loads of other stuffs in life that a lot of students have to cope... but I miss my life I had back there. Why do I have to grow? I fear of life itself and not death...

I am lost... I need a light to guide me through. All I am doing is just to follow the road I started. Living my life to build a future. The road is unclear as it is dark without light or specific goal. Emptiness in my heart. I thought this is what I wanted, my dream is to study in Australia but why am I not happy like I thought I will be?

-you can see me laugh loads but can you feel my emptiness deep down?-
-you shut me out of your life, a soul I confide in in times of need-
-I guess it's true, I don't want to settle here-

Why Am I Born?

2009-04-12T15:27:00.003+10:00

Why am I born into this world? Why am I given life?

Not one answer can satisfy me.

Maybe when it's my time to leave this human world will I know the answer. By that time, if I do know the answer I would tell you- those who can see and hear me then...

From the Korean movie, Garden of Heaven: I will not see you walk away if I don't want to be with you made me flashback to the moment in the airport one year back on 10th of February. You did not look back and there is a reason for it but I saw you walk further and further away from me. I do not know when I can see you again, to feel your presence... uncertainty and confused. My heart breaks, my tears flow... You meant something to me but do I mean anything to you?

-confused and complicated mind-

Past Outings

2009-04-12T12:36:00.004+10:00

It has been ages since I blog.

I changed my URL again to keep parents at bay o.O I might start blogging stuffs about my life that I prefer them not knowing or so at least not from me... This might be the last time or I hope so...

In Newtown, they have this store called San Churros. It is something like Max Brennan that satisfy your desire for any desserts- chocolates. Jason Nulot took me there the other day to check it out and since he is a member of Choc Society, he has the coupons and discount member card XD

I had this and also a very rich, creamy and sweet chocolate drink called Basi?

Jason's 21st birthday came and he invited me to his birthday celebration outing with his friends. After uni, we went to Thai-O-Long 2 in Newtown. I tried some Thai dishes! Not much difference from chinese food although something unique about it.

The birthday boy =)

The dish I like most for that day...

Then my aunt got another 2-for-1 buffet meal at Star City's buffet meal outlet (forgot what's the name of that place) and so she brought me there. I can say I do not want to have any buffet there anymore. Sick of it.

My last plate filled with cakes =.= After the lunch, I was so bloated and sick. I slept in the car the whole trip home- My blood must have been too sweet?

Last week on Monday, Jason brought me to a cafe in uni that I had not been to, to try the most delicious ice chocolate in uni.

Ta-Da! The ice chocolate contains hazelnut-vanila gelato in it, chocolate drink and also hazelnut nuts!

Most of the time I stayed home to watch tv, youtube and study. I converted my bed into a study table and a bed to sleep in. My bed can be separated to form 2 beds. One soft and one hard- get what I mean?

My bed-became-study-table. That is my diary- the blue and white book...

And at times, I indulge in chocolates...

Shell shaped Belgian Chocolates...

The most recent outing that I had would be last Friday. I went out with Kah Lock after 9 months not meeting him. I last saw him when he came over with Jun-Eu and Derren to my Malaysia home to have a small chat before I leave. Although we are both studying in Sydney but we didn't meet up- different uni and different suburb? Uni life is just too hectic... Glad we had our mid-sem break now @@

We went for lunch at Kobow- Korean Restaurant, ice-cream at Gelatossino, watch Race to Witch Mountain at Greater Union and then to Star City to grab a drink.

Us outside Star City. Photo taken by the security guard =p

After that, we walked to the Rocks for the famous pancakes.

The Devil's Delight

and the Blackforest...

Full indulgence XD Then we had a night stroll along the harbour, Circular Quay, Opera House and back to Townhall for me to catch a train. I might have not indulged with my full capacity due to my lethargicness... Why do I feel tired all the time?

-so many questions and yet so little answers-

Gone and Away...

2009-04-03T14:29:00.002+11:00

Dear Readers,

I am back again after such a long dismissal. I were having loads of things on my shoulder, been very occupied and also exhausted. Next week, I would be having my Marketing Mid Term Exam- multiple choice questions but it don't seems like an easy task for me since you really have to know all the concepts and models and to apply it on situations.

Anyway, I have a great Marketing Group. I was chosen by them and I hope I would not disappoint them. They are great people, really put in loads of effort and easy to communicate with. They would be graduating after this semester! Yay for them =)

After next week, I would be having my Mid Term break!!! Can't wait for it so I could do some catch-up study and to have some time-out. After the break, I will be back into a more hectic lifestyle with loads of assignments crapping up!!! =(

Sighs... Besides that, I got a letter today to join Golden Key- from my university. Guess it would be a good opportunity and so i joined with the price of $114.50. Kind of pricey to me @@ But hope I would make good use of it XD

Lost in Thoughts...

2009-03-07T00:05:00.004+11:00

Currently in deep thoughts. Kind of frustrated for doing the same thing nearly every week. University, study, work- eat, sleep, play... It would be my cycle of life for another 2 and a half years? We meet people, we be friends, we got close, we part. Same old cycle. Why do we do all that for, why do we live? Too much answers but yet none can be said as the right or best answer... Everyone is searching for that answer and while at it, living on, moving on.

So, I would like to do something new. I actually like to get back home after my lectures ended, on the spot as to not to waste time because I like to be in my comfort zone- my bed too of course XD But now I would stay in uni a little longer to study and use the facilities. It may do me good and hopefully help me to study more. No bed, no comfort, no bludgering XD

P/S: The baby photo on the top shows how carefree and happy we all once were... 100%

2009-02-11T20:17:00.004+11:00

So after training to volunteer while representing ISSU, I went to Grace's house. I was supposed to have dinner at her house. Reached there at around 3.oo pm and since she haven't have her lunch so while she eats, we watch 'Whose line is it anyway?' I didn't pay much attention to this show anyway when I was back in Msia so I thought it would be boring but it turns out so funny! I like it =)

After she finished her lunch, we clean up and started making waffle dough while waiting for Isabelle, her boyfriend JJ and Archi. Once everything was done, we started playing 4 people mahjong!!! Damn, it has been a year since I touched mahjong pieces XD I was so happy =)

Mahjong King and Queens XD

Grace cooked us dinner!!! A very delicious dinner and later baked waffles to go with ice-cream!!! At 10 pm we started leaving her apartment and I got 2 presents from Grace and 3 of them XD Didn't expect them to celebrate my birthday in the first place- thought it would just be a gathering!

Dinner for 5

Poker money!!!

Can I eat now?

Dessert!!!

SPOC 3 Days Training Camp

2009-02-08T17:57:00.004+11:00

Last Friday, I went to uni to meet up with the Spoccers, sign up and hand in my luggage to Brendon to be put away into the white van which would be driven by him to the camp site- Sydney Sports Academy in Narrabeen! After everyone reached, divided into 4 teams lead by 4 leaders (one each), we had a race from uni to the camp. My team, lead by Justin got to the camp first! Yippie!!! We took a train, ferry, bus then we walked all the way there. We nearly got lost while walking cause we were climbing a hill then we went bush trekking @@ It was very hot and we were all tired but luckily we did it! High FIVE to ourselves and thanks to Justin!!! We also took photos and such to gain points and as proof of the journey we had.

Completing a form before the race XD

After all the teams reached, Brendon did an introduction of who was there, what would be the plan and such and then we were freed into our dorms. Since our team reached first, we got the special price of being the first for everything and so we got to our dorms first =p After settling down, we had dinner! I love it! Didn't expect dinner to be so good for camping standard =p Not like any other camps I had been to @@ Then we started playing loads of games like making the longest line that does not touch the floor with anything that we were wearing, balloon tower and such. A very great night and also because of the games I got to know so much people and got to remember their names. We were freed at 9.30 pm but we didn't sleep cause we took photos: Group 5 members all lying on a bed, built a mattress castle, build a human castle with the flag on top, bare our undies near the lake, got into small places in the common room and also 9 people in the blanket cupboard- each people in a compartment @@ Crazy but fun times!!!

My bed =p

Then the following day, I had great breakfast, lunch and dinner and also 3 other in between meals break time =p The day was filled with talks and more informative talks to give us knowledge and to prepare us for the Big-O Day XD Dinner we had BBQ stuffs =p At 7.oo pm, we were all dressed up in our costume for the costume party night! I was dressed up as showgirl dancer =) We had trivia then the party begins!!! Free liqour!!! I had BREEZER, watermelon flavoured but I don't like it =/ and also Lemonade and loads of water XD I am such a good girl ler... When it was announced that the liqour supply would b over in 15 minutes everyone went to grab whatever that was remaining @@ Hahaha... We dance and karaoke whole night long @@ I did the split while dancing when the words 'on the floor' was heard being sang!!! I went off early to bath and went to common room to watch American Pie 2? and later started playing Twister brought by James... After 3 round of defeat I am out, was sweating loads so I don't want to continue... Then the game continued on in common room 6 (mine was 5)

The first sunrise on Saturday morning!!! I missed it @@

Breakfast!!!

Breakfast too!!!=p

Group discussion???

Receiving 'I get there first' badge for making it first to the camp!!!

Costume party!!! Free Breezers!

The pretty Lumberjack!

The last day was more talks and also preparations to go home! Marina's mum was so kind to send me off to Carlton's train station and so I could catch a train home =) Thank you!

My Room In Syd

2009-01-25T16:50:00.002+11:00

I can't remember whether I did blog about my room in Sydney so here goes:

Ops, this is me, being so tanned from hours under the sun... Or should I use the word roasted? Lolz... Photo taken when I was in Hunter Valley.

2009

2009-01-25T15:28:00.002+11:00

So fast, a year has passed... It feels like yesterday, when I had a new year celebration at Jess's house. Visiting during CNY and also the big fight with JE and also other events that took part after that. How time passed, healed and made me who I am now. An older version of ME =)

Still remembered the times, after he left for his studies. During dinner with friends I can just suddenly in tears... How embarrassing- causing such a commotion when everyone was happy celebrating. During visiting, to be crying in Kevin's house when I am supposed to be happy receiving an extra ang pow and getting to meet his parents @@

The trouble I went through to get my application to study in Sydney... Those countless travels to and fro KL, IELTS exam- Which reminds me of the travelling down to Subang by KTM to meet up with Kevin, then he fetched me back down to Seremban's A&W to have a great time supper-ing with Seremban buddies, and I bumped into Cheah's Dad and Mum who heard from daddy just few hours before that I would be in Subang. They told me how worried my parents would be =.=""" Not my fault! I didn't plan it like that @@ Anyway 3 am, we reached back Subang and I have to wake up at 7 am for the test @@ ( I got good points for my IELTS =p)

Then I indulged in my work as a Barista. Results for STPM came out then results for public came out. I got into UKM for 4 years of Bachelor in Nutrition and Food Science with Honours which only cost RM 8, 000 plus. A dilemma since I also got into USYD for Bachelor of Commerce for 3 years. Time to crash my head in choices. Such a hell of a time @@ I gave my parents such a hard time with this bratty kid- me =p I know what you guys gone through for me and I can't thank you all enough XD

Then JE came back for hols, outings with friends, till this time, my turn to part with all of them. First few months was hard. I admit it now. A hellish time for me to adapt, pressuring myself to not indulge using parents money, study and not to fail, looking for jobs (more than 20 resumes given but nothing heard in return- such sadness) and so on. Loneliness and all caused me to cry at times especially when I read something regarding me on a blog. Few days straight of tears and sadness, such depression with no idea what was really happening.

And now 2009 is here. So much things had happened and yet it felt like yesterday. Time healed me. I can say now, not to worry daddy and also mummy. I am doing fine here =) Adapted, got a job, financially able to provide for my own neccessities, getting to know more people and not as lonely as I felt few months back XD 2009 will be a great year, for me and to you guys too XD I pray for that =) Love you all, including bro, sis, JE and all my friends!

I am very happy right now!!! Yes I am!!! =) Hehehe... I can't wait to be back in Msia soon to see you guys! Dad and Mum wait for me =p I know I owe you guys more time together since I spent too much time outdoors away from you... wuhuhuhuuh XD

M9 Laser Tag!!!

2009-01-21T21:16:00.003+11:00

Yesterday, I went for a SPOC socializing event which was to meet at Prymont Bridge Hotel at 8.00 pm to meet up and for a drink. I was introduced to this drink called Lemon Lime Bitter which I kind of took a liking to =) Sat and chit-chat till about 9.00 pm and we took off to M9, Level 3, Shopping Mall in Darling Harbour.

Mission, to play M9 Laser Tag!!! Visit: http://www.m9.com.au/darling_harbour/index.html

Tuesday night after 9.00 pm you get to play 2 games for the price of one and since we had our Access Card means we are entitled to 20% discount. We paid $10 for 2 games =D Goodie!!! This game is something like paintball, very similar so have a look at the website and you will know what I am talking about =p

For the first game, I was Quazar, no. 17 Blue... Bad scoring @@ This board shows our score outside the dark room so we could see it once we are done with the game...

Today, during work...

A funny man came into the store and asked me in Nepalese language which I don't understand but later was told it means "How are you?". He was told that I am not a Nepalese by my right hand cashier friend and I told him I am a Malaysian and so he replied with "Apa khabar?" I think I said "Teriman kasih" which don't seems like a correct reply @.@ Didn't speak Malay for too long.

Then he came to my till and talked in Malay. I told him I am a Malaysian-Chinese so I can speak Chinese as well. He asked me in Mandarin, "Do you have boyfriend?" and I replied him "Yes" and laugh a lot @_@ Hahaha. He then said "Aiyah! I wanted to intro my son to you". Damn I can't stop laughing d XD

Eternal Happiness

2008-12-26T00:19:00.003+11:00

As humans, we always look for our happiness. We strive for it. We need it in order to continue living in a desire to live. All we want and all we always deprived off because of mere dissatisfaction from what life got to offer us. Only once we are satisfied with what we have, then we can have eternal happiness. Which to say, is not easy to have. So people, start appreciating what you have and be happy. Bad times might not need to be sad case but a moment to rejoice that you had the times of happiness. A time opposite of bad times which gives more meaning to happy moments XD

Merry Xmas!!!

The feeling called L-O-V-E

2008-12-17T08:57:00.002+11:00

What is love you may ask?

Egg yolks being in heart-shaped forms?

Love is a feeling, a passion, an undescribable which I tried of letting go of, forgetting and also forcing it out of my heart and soul. Of course this love does not apply to my family and relatives because those love are bound to me by blood and I will always love them (no need to forget or force it out of me, durh~). What I meant was the love for friends and also for the special someone.

You may ask too, why would I want to let go, forgetting and also forcing those beautiful and magickal feelings out of me? Well sometimes when it was meant to be that good a feeling it can't necessarily be the same for all people and situation.

What if the love that you are having making you think too much and hold in too much feelings that you think "oh, no... I can't handle this any longer?" Well sometimes it does happen. We are all homo sapiens, no matter what somehow this situation or some sort of thinking applies to all of us and that's why not all relationships work out fine.

But then again, for me, the feeling is too special and strong for me to completely forgo it. Whenever I am at the end of it, somehow the magickal feeling strengthen just by a small act of his or just by an sms or surprise. From such a down moment, I was brought up back to cloud 9. A cycle I went through numerous time. How cool and magickal is that?

L-O-V-E, something you would crave for and also sometimes hate it for having you being roller coastered around =) And yes, I am still loving him that much XD Being in love made me look like how I look like with the big pig there =) Describe me...

-i miss my room so much and i know you love me-

Shopaholic!!!

Today, after my lecture, went for lunch with aunt to a food court and then we started walking and window shopping till we found Bing Lee. I went and search for my speakers for my lappie and aunt went and look for cameras. She was planning to buy one to pamper herself with XD I saw this Logitech speakers that I had been scouting around and so far Harvey Norman offered it for $39. This place sold it for $59.90 and so I asked the sales guy that I could get it for $39 at HN so what price could you offer me? He went and checked and said he could offer the same price- $39 and so I bought XD Don't need to go all the way to HN.

My new speakers and subwoofer! Oh and the mouse there, I got it for $8 the other day. Named Optima from Logitech too =) The cheapest I could find =p

Then, I saw this very cheap thongs in a shop!!! Bought 2 in different colours XD Each cost $1.99 @@

Last but not least, went and bought some hair clips =p This cost $2.50

Aunt bought for me this which cost $3.50 =p

I am so broke now =/ Just got my salary and spent so much. Die T.T Got to save up now for my train fares =.=""" $26 minimum per week =/

Ripcurl Bikini and Car Being Towed XD

2008-12-09T15:35:00.003+11:00

Yesterday, after my class I went to meet aunt for lunch and she brought me for shopping! We went DFO and I spent hours in the fitting rooms of Quicksilver, Billabong, The Great 8 and especially Roxy, I can't find a near perfect bikini that I like till...

I gave up and nearly wanted to retire from trying anything more, we went into Ripcurl. I found 2 I like most, near perfection and I bought this:

Can you see it in that background? Lolz. Very unique pattern indeed XD

From Ripcurl...

And worth this much =p

Much to our dismay, during the way back home, aunt's car broke down in the middle lane of the busiest road in Sydney. Between the junction to M5 and King Georges Road =/ We waited for an hour plus for the tow car but luckily before that a lady stopped her car and helped us to push the car to the side of the road besides controlling the traffic so cars would let our car passed the left lane.

Aunt asked for her number but she wouldn't give and said she just wanted to help because she knows how it felt like when this happens and also she been through it. But worst cause no one stopped and help, a car crash into her car because the driver was sms-ing and didn't notice her car wasn't moving. She had to go through knees construction.

At 7 something night... Help came XD So farnie. I can't help but took loads of photos XD He took us to a safe spot nearby so NRMA could come and fix the car.

At 8 something night, NRMA man came and fix the problem =p The battery was dead and needs a new one XD What a day @@

Fruits =)

2008-12-05T20:23:00.004+11:00

Aunt bought raspberries and blackberries and I bought lychees =p We didn't know each other bought so much fruits so now the fridge was filled with FRUITS =p

3 kinds =p

Yummie??? No???

Up close, the lychess =p

Blackberries. I love these~!!!

Raspberries =) Not so nice.

Aunt's Birthday =p

2008-12-05T19:18:00.003+11:00

Aunt's birthday just passed. I planned 2 surprises for her but not one went on perfectly fine =.=""" Will only let you know on one XD Hahaha...

After work yesterday, I bought this Mud Cake and took a bus home. Called aunt to say no need to fetch me cause I am on my way home =p

Delicious Mud Cake. Too sweet tho =)

Upon reaching home, I set the cake out and decorated it with the cherries I plucked earlier at George and Sue's.

Part of the whole box of cherries =p

Look way much better =p

And last but not least the candles =p The candles don't represent her age so no worries =p Another decoration was my handwriting on a piece of white small paper of 'ArPiE bOoFdAe!' but I forgot to take a photo of it =p Sighs. Decorated the cake till so nice...

After dinner, I surprised her with the cake! Yippie =p. One thing went wrong was, I didn't buy a lighter, her house no lighter and the stove don't use gas... Candles without fire =.=""" SWT SWT SWT~!!!

Happy birthday to you... Happy birthday to you... Happy birthday to you-ou-ouuuuu~!!! Happy birthday to you =)

Cherries Farm XD

2008-12-03T17:04:00.006+11:00

Yesterday, aunt and her friend brought me to Lithgow. A place situated after Blue Mountains, 2 hours drive from Sydney, City. We intended to go to Orange to see the cherries farm and to pluck cherries ourselves but ended up at Gearge and Sue's farm because it was nearer.

CHERRIES =)

This was a raspberry tree but since it's not the season yet so the raspberries were very small.

Now would be the cherries season. We were all taught the correct way to pluck cherries as to not hurt the cherry trees for future benefits from a friendly Lebanon lady =)

Up close. Beautiful don't you think so?

Loving it =p

Poser XD

Plucking~!!!

The red pail was mine and the blue was aunt's. We got that in an hour plus. Our hardwork =p One kg cost us $6.00 and if you buy that in my shop (the one I worked for), it cost $23.99 per kg. But later on, I was told the cherries I plucked was worth much more because was of a different type. I didn't know but I just went into the deepest of the farm to pluck mine =p I am good don't you think so???

The open box was mine and aunt's cherries (3kg) and the other 2 boxes was aunt's friend's cause she got a big family (6kg there)

During our way back, we stopped at McCafe/McDonalds to have a pee. I came across this hilarious rock... Give it a close look and see whether you get the joke =p

Coogee Beach =)

2008-12-03T16:22:00.004+11:00

Last Monday, aunt and her friend brought me out. We went to a few places and one of it would be Coogee Beach. I saw girls got topless and tanning themselves but no bottomless people. Sighs =p

The beach =) I need a swimsuit~!!! I want Roxy but so expensive~!!! Will somehow find a nice and cheap one soon. Somehow...

Aunt bought us all fish and chips and also calamari rings =) Besides that, we ate McD's sundae ice-cream each which cost $0.30.

Next we went to Star City. I won $6.60 on jackpots =p

Saw this decorations there. Christmas is near XD

Few limousines were parked outside the big entrance and this was the biggest XD

Next, aunt drove us under the Harbour Bridge~!!!

Cool???

Damn cool~!!! Will climb this bridge sometime. It cost $200 last time and now I can't be sure but I will once they have promotion for it =p Lifetime experience man~!!!

Around 9.00pm, aunt's friend's son took us all, including his wife and 2 small children out for a night drive. We sat a big toyota car for 8 people but I have no idea what would be the car's name =p Went to all sorts of places in Sydney till 11.00pm or later. We went Christmas tree hunting and also delicious food in Sydney.

We saw this near the Harbour Bridge.

And this was situated in King Cross I think?

Last but not least, he fetched us to Mulu Mulu (don't really know the right spelling). A very unique small fast food restaurant is situated here, beside the beach, a big ship and also houses which sells chillies hotdogs and pies =)

Mine~!!! The chillies damn hot but wouldn't make it so hard to eat. I love it~!!!

Next, he drove us to Double Bay to look for Riveria (he said it was a very popular ice-cream restaurant that I should try) Chick~! But too bad the restaurant was not there anymore but we saw it near Darling Harbour on the way back. So now I know where I should go next for my indulgence =)
