what's up with today, today?

The awkward math equation

2012-02-10T11:49:00.001+08:00

Why are lingeries so expensive? A bra costs at least rm140!

1 bra = 6 tops (in cotton on cause I cheapo like that) = 10 panties (in cotton on too cause they so purdy!)

And worst still!

2 bras = evanescence concert tickets!

I know what I want for my Bday this year. In addition to the western digital hdd I need :)

If you've got nothing nice to say...

2012-01-31T02:28:00.002+08:00

Don't say anything at all. I'm always a firm believer of if u have nothing nice to say to someone, why bother saying anything at all unless u intentionally want to hurt them. Then well, that's just mean.

Cause really, saying something mean with a smiling face is just worse. If you want to be an ass, just do it. Don't pretend to be nice about it cause I'm not buying your bull shit.

Some people really don't realize how much their words can hurt others. And more often than not, these people can never take criticism about themselves. I mean seriously, who the hell are you to judge others when you yourself is flawed. Take a good look at yourself before you decide to lecture someone. Cause hey, people can judge you too.

I'm having some serious pent up anger right now and I'm not sure when it might just explode and who is going to be the pitiful soul who'll receive it. Let's just hope I can hold it in for a little longer. But theres just so much fakeness I can take.

Raya 2011

2012-01-29T20:48:00.012+08:00

Hari Raya, another festive season which revolves around food.

as always, we'll help my mom to cook for Raya and when i say help, i mostly stand around and help her stir. occasionally, i pretend i'm hosting a cooking show. don't mean to be full of myself, but i'm actually really entertaining. you should definitely try to catch my show one of these days.

we cook pretty much the same thing every year.

clockwise: rendang chicken, sambal goreng (a javanese beef dish) before and after, and urap (i spos to describe it... it's like roasted coconut with shrimp and chili and onions... erm yeah)

anyway, fast forward to pagi raya. me and aziemah were tasked to go to carrefour to get drinks and frozen curry puffs (back up in case we have guests).

which explains why we were still in our tshirt and jeans. i was wearing my big bang tshirt! *hearts

but then my mom was all "why don't u just wear your baju kurung to carrefour" and i thought, uhuh why not? saves the trouble of changing again later.

and voila, i was changed! but aziemah had brilliantly left her baju kurung at home. so, she could only change later.

as tradition, every year my parents would sit on the chair and we would "salam" them and receive duit raya :)

oh yeah, forgot to mention, all pictures are stolen from somebody else i.e. my sister, brother, etc.

after carrefour and aziemah got changed, we took more family pictures with those timer, many pictures shot.

take 1

take 2

take 3!

baby ezra looks simply bored lol.

nothing much happened for the rest of the day, with only a couple of random visitors visiting us. so, chilled in my room the rest of the day watching kpop videos. and i was inspired to be totally korean with my hairbow. also, made my cousin take pictures with me :)

le us in raya outfit (totally recycled from last year)

oh why is my cousin so cute *pinch pinch*

and then the hairbow madness began.

i even tried putting on fake lashes but failed miserable cause the glue simply wouldn't want to stick!

the worst that could happened was after i finished ridiculously dolling myself up, my mom called me down to help her out cause we had visitors. i was in such a rush, i only had time to remove my fake lashes and hair bow. still had my hair up in a really high bun :S

but yeah, that pretty much concludes first day of raya.

typical 2nd day is to go back Melaka and this time around, Aziemah followed us!

yeah, i'm totally pulling off the mak datin look!

our kampung in limbongan! roads there look different every year!

went to visit one of my cousin's and oh, their baby is so cute. she had an abundance of hair! and took a liking for Aziemah hehe. bites her!

our target at every house... cookies!

and oh, we found out that one of my uncle's house has a really super cool phone.

extremely old school! it still uses the pusing-pusing dial thing. i had a brilliant idea to call my handphone and i call back the number and aziemah picked up and we talked through it and it works!!! oh man, so cool. btw, you totally had to read that sentence in 1 breath and imagine me as if i'm telling you the story to really feel the excitement in it!

and that concludes day 1 and 2 of Raya.

next up, Raya open house!!!

August -insert word that rhymes with it-

2012-01-24T21:53:00.011+08:00

ohaiyo and HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

its still 2nd day of CNY but can't blog about that yet cause the order of things will just confuse me (and also my sister hasnt uploaded any pictures up nyehehehe)

btw, August! it was the month where puasa month began and hence, pictures will mostly revolve around food. and of course, baby ezra.

Syahrir's Bday @ Guarmandis

we went to guarmandis again to celebrate syahrir's bday but the food took too extremely long to come and after waiting an hour, the waiter finally came to tell us the burger was finished. sooo, it was the day we decided to boycott this restaurant and never go back.

oh hai, itz us! pls disregard the tired, oily faces.

Bowling @ Pyramid

because eilzen was MPV during the bowling inter-firm games, everybody in the sime team wanted to challenge her to bowling. unfortunately, she was stuck with 2 losers on her team. 1 being me lol. but it made us rediscovered how everybody really loved bowling! despite sucking at it, it's still really fun! we actually went bowling a couple more times after this.

eilzen in action!

Buka puasa @ Putrajaya International Convention Centre

it was the night that the DPM was also there. i already wore a nice top with jeans and still felt underdressed cause there were pretty much bling everywhere! there were also cameras everywhere!! was trying to get myself captured but alas, failed miserably. btw, have you ever met the DPM in person? yeah, me neither cause i actually don't really know how he looks like *awkward*

buka puasa @ Churascaria

last year's yearly team buka puasa was at churascaria. and we were the early birds! cause we had to make sure our reserved spot was still there.

and btw, this is how they serve their meat. on a stick. you pick what you want. and oh man, it is really noms if you're a meat lover.

and yummiest item is the pineapple as you can see them holding it up.

and oh, meet Adik (in pink). he was our intern last year and he was our daily entertainment. everyday, he would come up with the randomest things to say. and ah, he was also my twitterjacker. despite his occasional annoyingness, his presence is dearly missed. other 2 guys in the picture are my bosses :) and that's rae rae way at the back.

Korean BBQ @ Go Gung (yea, again!)

this time around was with Jean.

Cheryll dropped by a lil later for coffee

Townhall meeting @ 1sentral

yeah, while everyone was busy listening. we were.... busy listening too :)

and due to fasting month, we got dates as gifts! but conversations got pretty awkward.

friend: what did you get?

me: dates!

friend: with who?

-_____-"

Dinner @ Yuzu, Desserts @ Alexis

my favourite massive unagi set!

i forgot what the cake at the back is called but everyone loves it! except me. but anyhoos, everyone else loves it soo doesn't matter. i was pretty much gobbling down the chocolate cake. it was pretty good. i think it was with cream cheese or something. i dunno, i totally made that up.

but throughout dinner, we realised each of us knew how to fold paper hearts in different ways:

mel did the biggest, me the middle and cheryll the smallest. it's all about love <3

and it was one of those shy to take picture days. cause this is the only picture i have of a person.

we buka puasa'ed a few more times here and there but no piccies :(

anyway, let's fill this entry with baby ezra photos. not a baby fan? you can close the browser now kthanksbye.

baby so sessy when he sleeps, everything also kangkang.

this was back when he was still squishy. only a month old but already so aware of his surroundings.

i used to come home from work and just lie beside him and talk to him about my day, his day, kpop etc. he prolly doesn't understand a word i'm saying but he's always making all kinds of sounds by himself as if responding.

this was one of the days he just looked at me and kept baby talking. *checked fb* this was taken on 18 august, means he wasn't even a month old yet! aih, so cutee....

and it's weird how he manages to look different in every picture! this was like a day or 2 after my sis's confinement period whereby mommy and baby could come out and buka puasa with the world. but baby pretty much slept through all the noise. so amazing!

and thats all for tonight. nitey nite.

things i am missing.

2012-01-16T22:36:00.002+08:00

i have lost a shit loads of things in 2012. not starting off very goood now.

so anyhoos, if you seen it, do return them :(

My zara sweater that i wear to work all the time. i have a horrid feeling i left it at some client's place!

Ok, i know my watch is in cheryll's house.

Abit awkward to write this here but i'm sure nobody reads this anyway. i cant find my black halter bra. it's prolly left at some hotel or something. aihhh...

lost my favourite pair of earring studs. it's the white sapphire ones and have another bad feeling i dropped it somewhere or the maid stole it T______T

and another pair of my favourite purple earrings only has 1 side. this one i most prolly left/drop it at the photoshoot studio.

aih, soo sad right now. i think i'm just gonna call it an early night and sulk on the bed.

since i'm on a roll right now.

2012-01-07T10:45:00.014+08:00

ohaiyo the month of July! right now, i'm just speed blogging, like a boss!

these days, been 9gagging too much it seems like the way i think and speak has been affected by memes. i totally blame cheryll for taking my soul. i guess i'm also to blame for taking others.

soo, dear family and friends, forgive me for introducing you to 9gag :p

anyhoos, month of July! here goes.

Plan B @ Bangsar village

it was date night with Jean. even went for a massage for my dead toe. well, it wasn't dead dead but i just wore my shoes for too long and it just stayed for a couple of weeks. its fine now, no biggie.

my favourite pasta in plan B. soft shell crab with curry cream based pasta. oh noms, i crave it now.

Marmalade @ Bangsar Village

ellia left the firm :( and so, we threw her a farewell! and since, we were a bit busy and didn't manage to get her a farewell gift. i brought my polaroid camera and gave all 10 films to her as memories of us.

Bisou @ Bangsar Village

i think we had dinner somewhere else but ended up in bisou for coffee and cupcakes. nothing better than seeing these girls for a lil destressing outing. i can't remember what we talked about that day but i remember laughing so hard until i cried. it was good...

and voila! my favourite cupcake from bisou: red velvet.

Centrepoint @ Bandar Utama

a place with cool multilevel carpark

and humungous burgers!

Churascaria @ Damansara Jaya

best meat buffet i've been to. but ironically, one of the things i love most is the roast pineapple cause it's simply amazing!

ibu bapaku.

sepupuku.

Eilzen's bday

day 1 celebrated at lala chong

day 2, she got a cake. and oh hai, isya's pencil box.

day 2 night was at guarmandis @ citta mall. they took forever for the meals to arrive but they kept giving us free food and drinks. so, it was alright. although, we boycotted this place later on cause the wait just wasn't worth it anymore.

Client's place @ Ara Damansara

that's my slipper. but that wasn't my toe. i went back to HQ office that morning and later on, got a whatsapp from eilzen saying her toe got sliced by the glass door. it wasn't a pretty sight! see, i told you my client's place is jinxed!

all you need is me and eilzen to create this mess; 4 footwears, 2 bottles and a whole bunch of cables. it's no wonder nobody wanted to sit with us.

and of course, the highlight of July 2012. baby ezra was born! he was 2 weeks earlier than expected and it was a mad rush from there to move back to subang. more so before hari raya!

i remember my sister texting me to let me know she's having contractions but to not worry, might be false alarm. but i guess her contractions were getting more frequent and i was getting significantly exited by the minute! but my sister, the epitome of calmness, was having mcdonalds for dinner (last meal before her confinement period).

went to work the next day and couldn't concentrate one bit on what i was doing. we got the text at 12 something pm on 20 July 2012. baby ezra was born! looking very much like an old man with wrinkly fingers and toes. unfortunately, i couldn't get off work earlier soo i only saw him much later in the evening. prepare for a whole bunch of baby pictures.

oh hai baby! its me.

looking every bit like a grumpy old man lol

with the new mommy :)

what i don't get is. why would the hospital dress a baby boy in pink clothes. tsk tsk tsk.

baby ezra came home with us from the hospital. everytime he had to take a bath, he would scream as if someone was trying to drown him. and the moment u take him out and puts his clothes on, he instantly stops screaming. notty notty.

oh, in other news, we moved back to subang.

my new room! with a balcony and all.

and now, i even have my very own bathroom. *loves*

since the house wasn't fully completed, mommy and baby had to sleep in the living room on the couch. so kesian.

and thats all for July!

the picture i left out.

2012-01-04T20:39:00.002+08:00

i actually made a food collage the other for the month of June. it took me soo long to find an app that could do it, i forgot to post it!!!!! so here you go. btw, the app was lame.

we have korean, pasta with ayam masak merah, lasagna, paddington pancakes, pasta zanmai, kfc, ians homemade pasta and breakfast meals at plaza damas.

nom nom nom.

okay gnite. cause i can barely open my eyes for some reason. me thinks its the heat!

the lame punny that no one gets.

2012-01-04T00:17:00.003+08:00

lately, i've been filled with such lame punnies that everyone has been giving me the sweat look. you know the -______-" look.

but i can't help it. i blame it on the foreseeable stress to come :)

anyway, i gotta jot this down while it's still fresh in my head, cause i already forgot about the rest of my punnies.

my friend, Rudy, was hanging out with me today and i suddenly thought.

you know how if i'm cute, you'll say isya is a cutie.

sooo, if a person was rude, you'll say he is a rudy.

geddit??? hahahhaahahahahhahahaha

gnite ;)

final entry before all hell breaks lose.

2012-01-03T23:50:00.008+08:00

today was the first day back to work. at the same time, it was the last day before peak commences. soooo, lemme squeeze in an entry before i say bye bye to my life. but for all i know, i could just be exaggerating *fingers crossed*

many months back, my sister's friend approached me letting me know they were planning a surprise baby shower for my sister and i was to help her find out when was my sister free, get her to the place, etc.

during that time i was busy with 3 jobs concurrently and so, i was not very involved with the planning of the whole thing. my only task was basically to get my sister there.

the place they chose was kokopelli cause they had a discussion with the owner and everything and he agreed that it was fine for them to have a small party. they even made sure it'll be okay to play games and all. but in the middle of the thing, he decided it was too noisy and told us to lower down our voices cause he had other paying customers. the tone he said it was as if we were eating there for free or something.

*le said owner with issues

honestly, if it weren't for this guy, it might be one of those places i would recommend for small gathering cause it's definitely a cosy place. food is just so-so though.

anyway, back to surprise baby shower!

i basically told my sister i wanted to blanja everybody cause i got my pre-bonus and my friend told me about this really cool place called kokopelli. we arrived there earlier and helped out with decorations. the most nervous part is waiting for my sister to arrive. and here's how it went.

me llb'ing as always.

arrival of the guest of honour.

surprise!!

uikk?! hihihihi.

and here was the decorations:

if you look closely, the wordings are written on baby clothes. sooo cuteee...

baby booties, nappies and bottle on cupcakes :)

baby bottles...

with candy in them. noms...

and most amazing of all. the nappy cake! when my sister friend said she's bringing a nappy cake. i thought it was a real cake in the shape of nappy. but ohhh, it was s cake made out of nappies. how cool is that?? despite me being farely dissapointed this wasn't a real cake, but this is really really awesome!

if i had blogged on a timely basis, i would have been wishing you good luck on your baby!

but since the baby is already out, congratulations on a smart, adorable and extremely loveable baby boy! mwah*

p/s: pictures courtesy of my bro and bro in law :)

ushering the new year with a cleanup!

2012-01-02T09:25:00.007+08:00

so, here was the plan for today (the last day of holiday before work starts tomorrow!):

wake up early

clean the room

prepare for work tomorrow

but so far, here is how it's been going:

woke up early... snoozed a couple of times

wanted to clean up room but decided to on computer first

discovered the fun-ness of bejewelled in chrome again (ahhhh, i seriously can't stop)

read blogs and hey! decided to blog myself

and after this, i really need a nail cut... longest it has ever been...

and just like what i did in May, i'm going to do monthly blogging updates. cause if i remember right, nothing much happened for the next few months cause jeng jeng jeng, peak had arrived once again.

so, here we go with June! oh hang on, i remember something significant happening in June!! it was my sister's surprise baby shower. anyway, lets start with random pictures of the month.

it was Sue's bday on 3 June and being the cheapo friend that I am, i gave her a printscreen picture for her bday. but look, its Jesse Bradford! childhood crush :)

dressed pretty for a cousin's wedding. if u ask me, i can't really remember who. but i remember aziemah took this picture for me for my p365.

met up with my college friends, Zah and Afida and bought awesome rings at curve flea market. unfortunately, my butterfly ring broke when i was doing dishes and stuff during hari raya. ah well. but its still my favourite.

and ah, who could forget the day aziemah almost got kidnapped by scratch and win conmen. i'll copy and paste what i wrote in fb for that day.

13 June 2011

Day 215: EPIC day. not for me though.

i went home early that day with every intention of working from home. only to receive a text from my mom saying "papa and mama are at the police station trying to rescue aziemah from scratch n win" and it was followed by some Taman Desa address. i called up my mom to get a very vague info about my cousin being at some office and the people weren't letting her leave.

i asked ian where taman desa was and he told it was some ghetto area which got me even more worried.

spent the night imagining all kind of horrors and being worried about my cousin and my parents. but thank god; she was rescued and came home safe.
you can read her story here, its really exciting! just so that you don't fall prey to the same conmen.
http://helpageek.blogspot.com/2011/06/kidnapped-by-con-men.html

probably one of the scariest day of my life. i started imagining horror things i've seen on movies. luckily my sister dropped by that day to keep me company. all is well and she has learnt her lesson, i hope!

kitty came back from korea with a BIG BANG TSHIRT! and right after i pasted this picture in, i actually googled how to make ur big tshirts smaller with tieing. and thats what i'll probably gonna do next. sorry messy room, i don't know when i'll find time to clean you!

met up with the girls not many times throughout the month cause it was a busy busy month for me. cheryll was off in another country at this point of time.

and ah, June was a time where i started my job at another clients and lemme tell you, that room was truly jinxed. soo many accidents happened there which required a trip to the clinic. we were kept in this room which had those moveable walls to make the room bigger and smaller. one day, the client told us they needed to use the room next door and soo, being kind people, we helped them close off the room but while i was swinging one of the "walls", i accidentally lost grip and the thing swung right into my friend's finger and kinda smashed it. it took months for her "dead" fingernail to regrow. i felt guilty every single time i saw her finger :( but it's fine now, i think.

the last day of the year.

2011-12-31T12:42:00.003+08:00

and with a blink of an eye, we are now on the last day of 2011.

and every end of the year, we muse "wow, this year passed by really fast". when in fact, it's something we feel every single year. my dentist has this theory that the world is revolving faster and hence, why we feel we have lesser time. but i just think our life is getting more hectic year by year.

i bet you, you didn't feel time was moving that fast throughout the middle of the year. well, it wasn't for me, at least. throughout, i was thinking along the lines of...

"ahh... when's the next holiday gonna come"

"i can't wait for my birthday!"

"why does bonus have to come all the way in July???!!!!"

and more often than not, "it seems like a lifetime waiting for Friday to come" and "dafuq... its Monday again"

2011 felt like a matured year for me. dealing with grownup problems and having to actually face them rather than pretend its not there.

sadly, i'm barely done with blogging about 2011. if i'm not mistaken, i'm still stuck in May? shit loads of catching up to do.

but at the top of my head, the most significant event was when baby ezra was born on 20 July 2011. the day i became an aunty. like a real real one. not those where i'm an aunty to my cousin's kid but one where i got my own aunty term; "sui ee" (which is what i make him call me cause mak su sounds old for some reason).

say hello to baby! its weird how all new born babies kinda look like old people and *poof* they become really cute after.

but here's a quick summary of what happened throughout the year, in no chronological order cause i'm actually spos to go out for lunch now.

- bunch of people got married

- another bunch of people had babies (some from the same bunch of people as above)

- spent a whole of time with the tais-tais in training; went to a couple of spas, holidayed in singapore and melaka, finally went for skytrex!, had a gazillion meals together and even squeezed in a couple of slumber parties.

- went to buble and suju's concert and also a bunch of other musicals which my friend was in.

- watched my friend grow from just being my friend to become a performer on stage, gigs, on radio!! practically an internet sensation :)

- went to a fair amount of places i.e. bangkok, vietnam, pangkor, kk

- in related news, sat on business class for the first time!

- oh, not to forget my cousin, Aziemah's kidnapped story.

- my company finally had their biennial dinner (after 4 years!)

writing this out is making me realize how much i have to blog about!!!

- oh, i also got a whole bunch of new things (not bragging, just sayin' :p); new car! new phone (well, not new since its hand me down from my bro to dad to me. but its my transition from bb to apple), new iMac my now one true love, bunch of new beeyooootiful shoes (if i wasn't so behind in blogging, i'll prolly be blogging about my shoes), new red red lipsticks cause who knew i could actually pull them off! and thats pretty much what i remember...

in all seriousness, 2011 showed me alot about how scary life can be. i saw things happening to loved ones which i used to only see on tv dramas wtf. i saw a friend broke down when she found out her bf was cheating on her. i know this prolly happens alot but usually friends will come to me with pettier problems or just normal complaints. it was something i couldn't advise on cause it wasn't a simple "yeah dump his sorry ass" cause it was a relationship she had invested 4 years of her life in. and it was about the same time i was having confusing thoughts about my own relationship. what an emotional turmoil i was in. i'm fine and dandy now so don't worry about me :)

but oops, i really got to get ready to go out now. last day people, PARTY HARD!!!

as i always say. Happy New Year!!!! May your 2012 kick 2011's ass harder than ever!!!!

p/s: you never know, it could be the end. sooo make 2012 count :) work hard, party hard, love as much as you can and leave all the bitterness behind. new year, new stories and new memories, here I come!! much love xx

just a short one.

2011-12-26T22:10:00.002+08:00

hello! im back from penang :)

i considered updating my blog and facebook with outdated pictures from back in November but i decided that i rather watch my tv series or read a book. but just wanted to wish everybody a belated MERRY CHRISTMAS and soon to come HAPPY NEW YEAR!

in other news, i bought myself a couple of christmas presents. now i gotta figure out how to settle my bills :S

will blog about all of them on another day. enjoy your holidays everybody! much love.

a trip filled with gluttony

2011-12-17T21:09:00.011+08:00

it was Mel's bday and we needed to do something BAM to celebrate it cause for Jean's bday, we went to the spa; for cheryll's, we went to singapore! and i have recently blogged about my birthday at skytrex. it needed to be something memorable and oh, we even bought her a bday present cause we knew exactly what she wanted. we gave her the option of going for day trip to Melaka or Cameron Highlands. but at that time, it was kinda rainy season-ish and there was a recent landslide somewhere in KL which made us decide to go to Melaka instead.

some people call Melaka Negeri Bersejarah or the Historical State but to us, it's the state with a whole lot of yummy food!

Cheryll was kind enough to drive us there. but we used my car since hers is only a 2 seater.

Cheryll and Jean parked at my house and together we go to pick Mel up.

here Mel says bye bye to her dog, Simba.

and it's off to Melaka we go. it was about 1 and half hours drive and TA DAH~

we have arrived!!

our first stop was Jonkers street.

obligatory touristy picture.

we walked past a lot of cute, quaint shops.

but our first stop had to be for lunch. and so, we headed to one of those shops which sold chicken rice balls.

we also ordered assam pedas fish which i totally chowed down. cause we were starving, forgot to take a moment and snap a picture of chicken rice balls. but rice balls pretty noms.

and for dessert, cendol with gula melaka. oh, it was sooooo good on a hot, sunny day.

and on our way back to our car, we had another dessert. it was basically choosing fruits and they sorta blend it into your ice cream. it was pretty refreshing.

along the way, we took more touristy shots here and there. just to show that we went to Melaka :)

sadly, the girl whose dad is from Melaka, isn't sure where all this places are.

jump shot! of random person.

if i were to guess, i would say this is at the Methodist church hahahahhhaah

btw, how out of place and touristy can we look?

after all that eating, we went in search of a foot massage place to rest our tired legs. it was just so-so. i still prefer my thai odyssey.

and to end our day in Melaka, we had the yummiest crepe mille cake! a crepe mille cake which makes all cakes in KL pale in comparison. once you've taste it, nothing else will taste better.

it's in a shop called Nadeje. here's an address for those who want to look it up:

G-23 & 25, Jln PM4,

Plaza Mahkota

if you have yet to hear about a crepe mille cake. it's basically just layers and layers of crepe and in between it is basically flavoured cream. in Nadeje, the choices of cakes is ridiculously extensive! in KL, you'll usually find choc, vanilla or stawberry. there.... you've got...

double chocolate

tiramisu

green tea

and even milk tea!

its definitely one of those must try places. noms noms... maybe i should just drive to Melaka again to eat it.

final group photo before we leave

and oh, for Mel's bday present. this needs a story of its own. one day, me and Cheryll were out and we were just looking at Thomas Sabo for some reason and Cheryll suddenly remembered how Mel wanted a pearl bracelet from there. so we thought, hey why don't we surprise her with a gift cause she totally won't see it coming. we started looking for charms and it suddenly clicked in Cheryll's head something Mel had said about wanting a pearl bracelet with a gun charm cause it's badass like that! she even imitated her voice and speech and everything. to make sure, i even texted Nic to check but he knew nothing about it. slightly worried we might get it wrong, we took the chance and got it for her anyway.

good news is, she loved it!

bad news was... another group of her friends got her the exact same present! hahahhhaa

luckily, thomas sabo allows gift exchange. soooo yeah... that's the story of Mel's bracelets.

and with that, we headed home back to kl!

there was a nice sunset that day. there's nothing i love more than a brilliant sunset.

the rest of May

2011-12-15T11:47:00.000+08:00

and this is how a lazy person blogs.

i'm gonna summarize the rest of May in a post! except for when i went Melaka with the girls. i'll save that for another day.

finished blogging in 15 minutes #successstories

looking back at all the pictures. they mostly consist of food, don't they. it's no wonder it's so hard for me to lose weight.

the bangkok post continues

2011-12-14T10:37:00.015+08:00

some days i look at my pictures and how much i have not blogged. and it scares me!! it feels like life is passing me by soo fast that i don't have time to sit down and really appreciate it. i'm so afraid that i'll forget it with my memory of a goldfish lately.

ah well, full speed ahead then.

just a heads up, we did not do any sightseeing on this trip to bangkok. it was a pure shopping expenditure done by the 4 following ladies;

clockwise from top left: le mama, le kakak, le cousin and le me.

breakfast was at the top of our hotel with the view of the city.

our first stop for the day was Chatuchak

its one of those must visit places when you go Bangkok. it's a weekend market that sells anything and everything you can think of. the map of the whole place looks something like this:

with allocated areas for different items sold. you could spend almost a whole day in this place but it could get pretty hot and stuff.

oh, let me tell you a fun fact about bangkok. when we got a taxi there, the taxi driver wanted to charge us a really cheap rate but on one condition, that he will bring us to this touristy shop place. and we didn't even have to buy anything there but to just go in and look around. apparently, if taxi drivers bring tourists to that location, the shop will pay the taxi drivers a certain amount which will cover their fuel and hence, cheap taxi fare. cool, yea?

anyhoos, we didn't snap must pictures at chatuchak except when we were eating. a definite must try food there is the coconut ice cream!

it's served in a coconut shell. i forgot how much it was but you can choose 2 toppings of your choice. i got nata de coco and peanuts. noms!

oh hai! itz me with my new fake rayban shades.

we also got mini donuts.

cause mini donuts are pretty osom.

everybody with new shades lol. check out the crowd all around us.

another place which we spent most of our time at was platinum mall. i swear, i could just live there. it's a place to get nice, cheap clothes without bargaining! i hate bargaining, so this place is just perfect for me. you usually just have to buy 2 or more items in the shop to get wholesale price. we took no pictures here at all cause time would have just been wasted on pictures.

here's a picture of the food court!

the day ended with have tom yam instant noodles in our hotel room due to tiredness and laziness.

Day 3 began with multiple shots of our hotel from the bottom view.

building was too tall to do a self shot :S i have failed....

our first destination for the day was MBK mall.

it was mostly filled with handphone accessories upstairs. they can change your iphone/bb housing for only RM50. which i think it quite reasonable since they do everything for you.

the result. okay, here's the story about my bb housing. i found this really nice bronzy purple cover and a matching purpley keypad which looked fantastic! but after he had dismantled my phone, the keypad could not fit right for some reason. and so, i felt soo pressured to pick another colour and we were already late to meet my mom, i picked the most matchy colour i could find which was mint green. and yeah, i didn't like it much in the end... my phone just looked like a piece of mint chocolate :( but my sister's phone look amazing though. ah well, changed phones anyway.

i think after MBK, we went back to platinum mall again. hehe.

and then, we came back to KL the next days. sobs

the aftermath: dresses, tops, hairbands, clutches, shoes...

i think that pretty much wraps up my bangkok trip this year. the end!

bangkok ahoy!

2011-11-27T22:25:00.000+08:00

i'm so behind in blogging it's not even funny anymore. bahh!!! a great deal of catching up i need to do. its freaking November already and i'm still blabbing about what happened in April!!!

anyhoos, guess what?! my bday celebration wasn't over yet. got one the best birthday present from my parents. last year was a shopping trip to bandung and this year, shopping trip to bangkok BAM sawadika!

and best of all, dad had overload of points for enrich which had to be utilised before it expired and soo *drum roll* please.... BUSINESS CLASS BAYBEH! first time ever for me. you can just imagine my excitement.

one of the benefits of business class is that you get to eat in the lounge... for free!

le food

le me and mama

breakfast while overlooking the landing strip. it's pretty cool. i could get used to this.

and also, in business class, you get to board le plane first! and take pictures cause there's no people walking around and no stewardess telling you to sit down and buckle up.

and meals served are pretty osom.

they're served on plates!

salt and pepper shakers!!! yeah, we usually just get them in little packets.

and butter shaped as a flower. awww.... how could anyone eat that?

oh hello there, then pregnant lady. its weird to think that baby ezra was in her tummy there a few months ago.

upon arrival at bangkok airport, we received those fast track pass which allows us to skip the queues at immigration. i totally get why people pay for business class now.

this time around, we stayed in baiyoke sky hotel.

which has an indoor golfing range. which was non applicable to us cause well, we were just there to shop!

they checked us into the female floor. yeah, they have a female floor. so cool ok! for safety and stuff. and the room they gave us was humongous! pretty sure it could fit a family of 5 in it.

hmm... this doesn't really show how big the room is.

ah look, i found a picture to show how big it is! me gusta.

after checking in our bags into our hotel room, it was time to hunt for lunch!

tomyam and fried oysters. i can't remember where this was but it was near our hotel-ish. it was actually recommended by a policeman we came across on the streets. we were walking around and suddenly this man asked where we were from bla bla. then he was telling us about this jewellery shop which was having a special sales only for that day and it was usually for locals only but he gave us directions there and all. he even helped us speak to a tut tut driver to get cheaper fare. at first, i was sooo skeptical of this man cause seriously, no one is ever that nice. and guess what?! he was really that nice. never happens in malaysia. if someone gives u directions without u even asking, you'll prolly get robbed and raped wtf.

the map he drew on kakak's book. i honestly couldn't read what he was writing but luckily our tut tut driver did :)

le tut tut driver.

us in the tut tut!

the rest of the day was spent in the jewellery shop. where they sold those precious stones i.e. red ruby, blue sapphire. they were really pretty and on promo too! but it all exceeded my budget, soo left to mama to buy the goodies. in the end, she bought 2 necklaces for herself and kakak and the man was sooo nice, he told me why don't you pick an earring out for yourself, for FREE! and so, i picked out a bling earring which is made out of white sapphire. the price tag said 500 baht which translates to about RM50. it's just a simple ear stud but i love it! wear it almost everyday to work now. btw, it cld totally pass off as diamonds *wishful thinking* lol

we didn't do much for the rest of the day cause we waited for my cousin from penang to arrive.

the night view from our hotel room.

sorry for the abrupt ending but i can't remember what we did that night :S

will probably continue day 2 another time.

Sometimes I crumble too.

2011-11-24T23:40:00.001+08:00

I'm a person who is generally happy with herself. I accept the fact that I'm not perfect but I'm contented with myself. Of course there are things I wish I could change about myself but since I'm too lazy to do anything about it, I try not to complain about it.

I don't get why people have to point out other people's flaws? Unless you're my mother or sister, why do you care? Despite what people say, I try to take everything in with laughter but some days I just crumble.

And so for you people out there who doesn't have ppl commenting about you, don't have a low self esteem cause you have no reason to. I'm a girl who has gotten shit from almost everybody in her life... Family, friends, colleagues. I've heard comments abt my big tummy, flabby arms, humongous thighs, pimply back, misai above my lips, unkempt eyebrows. Gosh you name any part of me, I've gotten some negative comments abt it. Sometimes it gets hard to be okay with it cause the comments are so constant. Cant help but to feel really ugly sometimes,

Sorry abt the emo post. It's just one of those emo days. But yeah, I'll just wake up tomorrow with a smile on face. Cause I tough like that :)

the rollercoaster of emotions

2011-11-21T21:55:00.002+08:00

my sister told me the other day "i don't know why i blog? i don't want to tell people about my blog yet i'm sad when nobody reads it".

and i totally get what she was saying. i don't usually tell people about my blog yet at the same time, it seems quite sad blogging to myself. but some days, you just need somewhere to rant or to have word vomit. and my blog is always forgiving no matter what i say :)

anyway, for the past few weeks, i had been in a whirlwind of emotions. one morning i would wake up fine and within the next hour, i would be trying my best to hold back my tears. it's something that i probably won't be blogging about here cause i'm still pretty private about my life. but all you have to know is that i'm better now.

but before that happened, i was in a rut. i was temporary pulled out when a friend told me he proposed to his girlfriend. although, i felt a pang of sadness but i was mostly happy for him. i think when another friend told me about her relationship problems was when i felt really really emotional. but putting everything aside, i gathered my other friends and rushed over to her house for Operation Cheering Her Up. it was a night filled with laughter, dvds and instant noodles. i don't think we really succeeded in helping her feel better but we did distract for her for that one night.

and till now, i'm still so worried for her. but at the same time, so very proud of her for showing soo much strength in going through this. i don't think i would have been able to handle what she's going through now. i'm wishing her all the best!!

okay, back to work. laytah!

Oh hai cutie pie

2011-11-21T19:43:00.001+08:00

1 cake is simply never enough.

2011-11-17T00:05:00.008+08:00

back then, before baby ezra was borned, we had mandarin classes every Sunday. contrary to believes, i didn't learn much simple because i was too lazy to pay much attention. but it was fun to meet up with my sister, sister's sister in law and sister's aunty in law and spend 2 hours of the day trying to converse in mandarin while having all kinds of breakfast and snacks anyone could think of.

and since it was my bday, Leia baked me a cake!

i think it was an apple cake and it was delicious!!! if i cld, i wld have finished the whole cake by myself noms noms.

oh hai, its me blowing my 2nd bday cake!

and when i got home, another cake awaited me.

i think it was some chocolate mousse cake. it was pretty good as well. how is a girl not to grow fat when you throw all this deliciousness at her?

btw, this is your typical bday routine. first, watch mama light the candles.

oh hello, preggers sister. well, this isn't routine but since i already uploaded it here. too lazy to move it! oh, so weird to think that my nephew was still in that tummy.

anyway, back to the routine. take a picture with the cake.

stand awkwardly while listening to everybody sing you a bday song.

make a wish.

and blow!

then take pictures with everybody who was present.

ian took me to the Spa after blowing and cutting the cake. it was a much needed massage after skytrex but the masssaging was a bit too painful. it felt like i was being punished and tortured for some reason. but the after effect was me sleeping like a baby for the next few nights :)

all in all, it was a FANTASTIC bday. can't wait for my next one to come. hihihihihi

SKYTREX!

2011-11-06T11:08:00.009+08:00

i honestly don't remember what day my birthday was anymore. cause it felt like i was celebrating it the whole weekend!

but on the saturday, we went for skytrex!! i didnt take any pictures of the obstacles cause i was afraid to bring my camera cause i was afraid that could cause me to slip, fall and die.

in the morning itself, mama treated all of us a yummylicious breakfast at la bodega.
i freaking love poached eggs and i've been having a craving for it since last week. damn you, masterchef!

so, anyway, let me tell you the drama of having to go for skytrex. the thing about it is that you have to book and pay in advance. and sooo, having desperately wanting to go since FOREVER, i did the booking and forced my friends to go. i say forced cause realised on the day before that ian and cheryll are terrified of heights FTL. btw, i have a fear of heights too. but who cares, i love shit like this.

back to my story, once you've booked it, you kinda leave everything else to fate. cause if it rains, then well, too bad. your money pretty much burns. and let me tell you, it started raining in the morning while we were having breakfast. and i was sooo worried the rest of the day! me and ian was the first to arrive and waited anxiously for the rain to stop. and upon arrival, we were informed that since we were the last session, there wont be anymore shuttle after us. and that time, only mel and uncling had arrived. the rest of my friends were freaking lost. and i'm horrible with shah alam!!! so when they asked "i'm at this roundabout, where do i go?", i have no idea cause there's about 10,000 roundabouts in shah alam which looks exactly the same!

while waiting anxiously for the rest to arrive, we had to fill up those disclaimer forms. and seriously, mel never fails to amuse me.

Question: do have ANY type of allergy?
Mel's honest answer: ice lemon tea
BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

when the shuttle finally came, we were still shot off jean and cheryll. we went in first but i still kept praying that they were going to make it.

while on the shuttle.

and then, we arrived!!!

we took on the Big Thrill challenge cause most of my friends recommended it due to its many, many flying foxes. but as we were there, i was getting really nervous cause of kat's story which kept replaying in my head. she had a friend who hooked on her pulley to the wrong cable and fell!

halfway through our tutorial run, cheryll and jean made it! soooooo happy!!!!

and i'm soo glad ian and cheryll made it through the whole thing. so proud of them :)
and thanks to the rest of you guys for making this happen. IT WAS OSOM!

Final day in Singapore.

2011-10-26T10:05:00.009+08:00

i think my picture entries are gonna have less words cause they happened so long ago, i can't even remember what really happened anymore.

as always, we start our day with a picture on the staircase.

breakfast was at ippudo.

since all the broth was made from pork, i can't tell you whether it was nice or not. but i had an unagi don and it was not bad.

most of our morning was spent treasure hunting in mandarin gallery. it was a much wasted morning cause it turned out to be such a dramatic aftermath which i don't really want to remember cause it still makes my blood boil. meh...

but we wanted to do some real touristy stuff that day. and so, we headed to the Esplanade. sadly, i totally forgot that i've actually been to the esplanade when we were in singapore for Cats musical and there's actually nothing there! but ah well.

since there was nothing to do, let the touristy shots begin!

our destination was actually to see the merlion! but who knew, they converted the merlion into a hotel for some arts thing. by day, people could just go in to check it out and by night, it'll become a hotel room. we thought it was pretty weird and freaky to have a huge ass lion in your hotel room. but apparently, its feng shui and its lucky and stuff like that.

the queue was pretty long. btw, spot the girls!!! and from now onwards, my camera battery died. so, all pictures were from my phone. hence, a bit the blurer.

oh hai, itz us!

the merlion is right at the head of the bed. imagine if something went faulty and it started squirting water out again. or OMG HE CAME TO LIFE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT!! how scary is that! BAM!

they said no touching of the merlion cause it could menghakis and collapse. but yeah, somebody was touching it. wasn't me though cause i was afraid i would go to jail.

the view from the toilet is pretty nice. you can see MBS and lotus thingy majiggy.

wallpaper in the hotel was a bit weird and in-you-face-ish. but yeah, i doubt i'll want to stay in the room. the only reason would probably be like"yeah... i did and you didnt". but otherwise, i'll give it a pass.

and since we didn't really get a full shot of the lion.

here's a mini one for your viewing pleasure.

and this marks the end of Singapore posts *phew* that took me months! but would definitely like to go on holiday with the girls again. a holiday without watches and consists of only eating, shopping and taking hours to get ready for no reason is absolutely wonderful.

till next time.

p/s: Happy Birthday to me Dad and Happy Deepavali to all celebrating and Happy Holiday everybody!

Goodbye bb :(

the inspiration to blog.

2011-10-18T22:23:00.002+08:00

everytime i read my friend's blog, i always have this inspiration to write in my own blog. i can't mention who it is cause i'm more of a stalker of that blog rather than an open reader :O

anyhoos, i always get this feeling of wanting to write something as funny in my own blog. alas, i'm not very funny in writing. but i'm pretty funny in person though. i think it was god's gift cause after he gave me skills to be an accountant, he though "ah, this poor boring soul. here! have a sense of humour too". god's blessing :)

these days, my photos are ALL over the place. cause most of the time, i have given up using a camera to take pictures and just rely on my phone. but then again, my phone's camera ain't that awesome. soo, i'll just snap a couple of pictures and call it a day. and plus, lately i have been using my work laptop to blog cause my home laptop can't seem to connect to unifi. but then... all my pictures and photo editors are in my home laptop. but the home laptop colouring has gone funky, so i can't even edit pictures properly anymore! aahh, i know its not a big deal but right now, it really feels like a huge ass dilemma.

in other news, i suddenly realised that i did not finish blogging about my singapore trip!! ah well, will save that for another day. for now, i'm gonna continue playing my cookie dozer and think of something funny to write about next time. but evidently, i'm not very good at. pfft...

the surprise dinner!

2011-10-13T21:15:00.003+08:00

i think my BB is slowly dying a slow death. i'm sorry i dropped you at least once a day :(

i vaguely remember, sometime before my bday, a friend was telling me about his surprise bday party and i told him, i've never gotten one in malaysia.

the last surprise bday party i had was back in melbourne. i rmbr i kept asking my housemates what do you guys want to have for dinner and they kept ignoring me and continued watching tv and i was thinking, WTH what is their problem?! little did i know, they ordered pizzas and was nervously waiting for it to come.

this time around, it was a little more elaborate. mngiam actually messaged me telling me about how her dad got vouchers for dinner at an italian restaurant in Le Meridien, Favola. sadly, she only had 2 vouchers and she invited me to come along. she even told me not to tell the other girls cause she didnt want them feeling sad. but a slight giveaway of that was when she told me "i'm wearing something nice, sooo, wear nice too!". and so, i kinda suspected the other girls would be there too.

come friday night, she even came to pick me up which i didn't think much about it cause i was living in bangsar that time soo it was kind of on the way. while waiting for her (cause she was late), i was whatsapping with ian and i was asking him what was he up to. he said he was having dinner with his friends and was still waiting for them to arrive.

the best part was, they invited ian too!! and the "friends" he was waiting for was actually me! with the exception of ian, the rest who came were my batchmates. i know it's like 6 months too late but THANKS GUYS FOR COMING FOR IT. REALLY REALLY APPRECIATE IT!

dinner and dessert was fantabulous that night.
i haad wagyu lasagna which was oh mah days freaking delicious!

and they got me a specially made cake.
if i'm not mistaken, it's called the devil's 3 way or something like that. i remember it sounded dirty. but this cake was definitely a little piece of heaven in my mouth. ahh.... i miss gobbling down chocolate like there's no tomorrow.

i didn't take much pictures that night cause it was kinda dark. i'm picky with lighting. yeah, i'm anal like that.

once again, thanks for all for coming :)

you think you know, but you have no idea.

2011-10-06T18:50:00.002+08:00

i was just going to twit about this but i realized that 140 characters is not going to be enough.

i realize that a lot of times, it's so easy for us to judge someone, to put a label on them; loser, geek, coward, etc. without even really knowing them. i like to believe there's a reason behind every action performed or words spoken. for the longest of time, people fascinate me. i have always had curiousity building within me, always wondering the reason behind everything. and i guess, in a way, it has made me hesitate at least 10 seconds before really judging people.

i guess another incident that really changed my perceptive on things happened many, many years ago. me and my mom went to buy baskin robbins. for some reason, i still remember this day clearly. it was one of those 31% on 31st promotion. as we entered baskin robbins at usj taipan, we saw that there was a really long queue. and soo, we waited patiently in line. 10 minutes into waiting, a lady walks in with her daughter of about 4 years old and simply walks towards the middle of the queue. me and my mom was pretty miffed about it cause here we were queueing up patiently and nicely, a lady just cuts our queue!

in frustration and anger, my mom actually said outloud, something along the lines of "don't know why some people no manners, just cut queue. how is she going to teach her daughter later". at that time, i did feel the same like wth, how could you woman?!

but after the lady paid for her ice cream, she walked up to me and said "you tell your mother that i was already in a queue but i just went out to repark my car" and she left. and that was when i felt soo horrified and embarassed for what had happened. we had judged her without even really knowing what was going on. ever since then, whenever something happens, i always think about or offer the "what if..." option.

although, i'm also guilty of the occasional judging. more often that not, i've done the look-at-a-person for 5 minutes and decide i don't like them. in my defence, it's not because i'm judging them but it's simply something i see in them which i know i won't be able to click with them. i call it my foresight and in the past 20 years, i have not been wrong. along with my gaydar and rship sensor, they have yet to fail me :)

but yeah, the whole point of this entry is cause yesterday i was telling a friend about another friend and she declared she did not like the guy without even talking to him by simply judging the way he speaks to other people. and for some reason, comments like that of my friends offends me as well!

so, i guess i really should stop my own judging a person within 5 minutes thing. although, it has yet to be wrong cause those people, i simply cant get along with them. not that there's anything wrong or mean about them. i simply can't talk to them.

so anyway, moral of the story is (cause i got bored of blogging and just want to go home and sleep) always think before you judge someone. there's always a reason behind everything. cause you won't like it if someone judged you too, right?

2011-10-02T20:00:00.002+08:00

just got back from my company trip to pangkor. i'm actually feeling super sleepy and exhausted now but just really really felt like blogging.

was writing some random cryptic tweets. and figured i should stop spamming people's twitter timeline.

and now that i think about it. my blog isn't private anymore. can't rant here as well.

but urghh... its true what they say, ignorance is totally bliss. some things are better left unsaid. cause it messes with my head, makes me confused. although, technically, there's nothing to be confused about. but if there was nothing to be confused about, i'll probably won't be sitting here feeling confused.

my bbm and whatsapp has been extremely busy cause i've been ranting to anybody and everybody. okay, that's an exaggeration cause i've only been ranting to 2 people. the only 2 people i know who isn't allowed to judge me :)

i'm going to stop rambling now. cause i'm in much need of sleep. would you believe that tomorrow is Monday again?!! *insert appropriate curses*

i wanted to end this entry with a "did you know...." and then i lost my train of thought.

but anyhoos, pangkor post will probably be up next year or something at the rate i'm going. won't be tanned anymore by then. soo sleepy can't even make sense anymore.

cheryll's real bday celebration!

2011-09-28T22:01:00.004+08:00

anyway, we met up at pressroom @ BSC for dinner. i was having a really bad sore throat after i came back from singapore and so, having risotto was like having italian porridge :)

and that marks the end of cheryll's weekend long bday celebration.

A day filled with events.

2011-09-23T00:24:00.001+08:00

Today...

We found out a colleague of mine doesn't know who Rain is. Big huge gasps!!! I know a lot of ppl who aren't into kpop but they usually at least know Rain is. After all, he's like... Rain!! He's like a pioneer... Not such a huge fan of his but he's somewhat epic!

Today...

A client once again catches us dancing in the office. But she's a dancer too soo she was totally cool with it and giving pointers and all.

Today...

We went bowling again! I played one of the best games I've ever had. It was a freaking 108 ok. *bangga diri* but it was almost the most embarassing cuz for my last throw, after letting the ball go, I slipped and fell on my knees. I even stayed down for a while cuz I was so embarassed. And apparently, my colleagues thought I was doing a dance or just being dramatic. How osom of them. My friend tried to console me by saying don't worry it happens all the time and I asked have u ever seen someone fell. Another 2 of my colleagues answers "yeah! We saw it just now". Sweat!! Gee, thanks guys. But I was still beyond happy cause 108 ok!! :) otay night night.

2011-09-20T22:19:00.000+08:00

back to Singapore posts! continueing on with Day 2 night.

as nightfall came, it was once again time to play dress up.

warning: shit loads of vanity pictures coming up.

C pimping J up.

and me all ready. let me tell you, those bathrobes were seriously comfy. we really should have stolen them. or buy them. whatever...

C all dressed up. you can catch a glimpse of her hard core shoes which she bought in Singapore.

all dressed up and ready to go.

our destination: Marina Bay Sands

since we were waiting for cheryll's friend, we had desserts at some chinese restaurant. and for some reason, i can't remember the name of the place. the desserts were just so-so. not very memorable. and to pass the time, there was nothing much to do besides taking pictures. of ourselves wtf.

frienemies lol.

told you there's gonna be tonnes of pictures of us. and this is me posting just a couple of them. cause if i'm already bored, i'm pretty you would be too.

finally, it was time to go up to the hotel room.

p/s: it's weird to have ps in the middle of a blog post yea? but just had to say, would you believe i started this entry on 22 August and only continueing it now. and just in case this entry might tergendala again, today's date is 20 September. a month later... osom...

this entry will probably be pretty short cause my singapore trip has become such a distant memory. and plus, i have a memory of a gold fish which really doesn't help.

well, what happened in the hotel room? we took more photos...

and then in the hallway...

at the lift...
yeah, we were totally on a roll...

we headed to the top floor place with the intention of heading to ku de ta but guess what! it was already almost 2am that time. soo, ku de ta was closing already. instead, we took a little stroll around the infinity pool area cause it was really really pretty up there.

C posing as a champagne girl ;) and it's not just any champagne, it's a dom perignon!! (but had to google for the spelling #totalfailure)

and then.... it started to drizzle. so, we had to head back to the hotel room and took more photos! but fret not, i'll just put one up. ripped from C's fb :)
once we headed back to the hotel, it was foot spa time! and at the same time, we were having some weird psycho craving for mcdees nuggets and soo, we called for mcdees delivery at about 4 in the morning! but unfortunate for us, it was time for mcdees breakfast and hence, no nuggets. sooo disappointed.

and foot spa wasn't as awesome as we imagined it to be neither. but it was kinda ticklish.
and with that, it marked the end of day 2 in Singapore.

stay tuned for day 3!! let's just hope it'll be within the next month :O
thanks for being patient :)

Babies can totally cheer ppl up

it seems like it's been years since i last wrote an entry here.

it's a like a bug going around lately. the lack of updates. from almost daily to weekly to monthly to hey, i totally forgot i have a blog!

its prolly cause life has been pretty monotonous lately (which i'm not complaining) or... i don't know. i can't even really pinpoint the reason i loss the need to blog continously.

i have a couple of drafts written whereby photos have been uploaded and all but they all seem to be tegendala cause the internet connection got too slow, or i get a phone call or simple because i got distracted with something more exciting.

i'm not even active in FB anymore. but i totally got google+ although i'm not too sure what it is.
ah, i've become a social media retard!

except for twitter though. even that, i don't update as often as i should. the only time i update uber often is when i get twitterjacked wtf. but even i think its hilarious and bloody brilliant, soo it's all good.

to end this entry, here's a picture of a baby!

do u want to bite him? cause i do.

and sigh, what is up with people and self pity? i mean yes, everyone has a little self pity now and then. but its really hard for me to pity people cause most of the time, i honestly don't care.especially if you choose to be sad.

i once read a quote which until now, i really really love. i cant remember the exact words but it's something along the lines of :
"Nobody really cares if you're sad. So, why not just be happy?"

if only our lives could continue on like a baby's life. eat, poo, burp, talk gibberish but still have everyone adoring you, sleep, wake up, eat and repeat the whole cycle :)

Looking at the bigger picture.

I have a friend who works in a non profit org right now who deals a lot with csr. And today during dinner, she was telling us a story about how people are living in real poverty. people having barely enough to eat and the constant worry of not getting their next meal. Yet at the same time, they're still willing to sacrifice a whole meal in order to show gratitude towards another person.

It definitely puts a new perceptive in my life. Here I am paying rm14.50 for a cake that I didn't even finish when people out there are starving. We're always soo concerned about the petty things in life. Always finding something to whine or complain about when we should be soo thankful for what we have.

We may not have that gorgeous designer handbag but we have a home to live in.
We may not be the prettiest/most gorgeous one in the bunch but we're healthy with a complete set of limbs.
We may not have found the love of our live but remember your family and friends whom have loved and supported us regardless.
We may have an exhausting, underpaid job but hey, at least we have a job (ok... Perhaps I'm still on the fence with this).

But bottomline is, there are worst things out there happening to the world that what's happening to us right now. So instead of finding fault with the world, find peace within yourself and perhaps, find something to be thankful for each day. Or try to help someone else or even just put a smile on someone else's face :)

this is more of note to self kind of entry. Let's see how long I can keep up with this optimism *determined*

of slippers, takoyaki and such.

2011-08-10T22:02:00.010+08:00

isn't it amazing how i'm taking 10,000 posts just to write up a 3 days, 2 night trip in Singapore?

to continue where i left off last time, our shopping spree commenced!
we began with havaianas. cheryll and jean bought a pair each while me and mel accessorized our current slippers. i only managed to take one picture of the store before the sales lady came to tell me no photography allowed. boo her! but anyway, here's the damages from our first store visit.

2 new slippers and 4 new accessories. i got a ladybird on mine :)
picture taken from cheryll's fb hihihihihi

tea time... well, kinda tea time. we had meals at the oddest hours, you see. but i assume this was tea time, we have one of the best takoyaki to be found not in japan (verified by jean). and i'm pretty sure this was in ioin. or takashimaya. or one of those malls within that row. yeah...

lunch was at some japanese restaurant which wasnt very nice soo no pictures of food was taken.

when we were tired enough, we headed to the taxi stand to wait for a taxi.
we waited...

and waited...

and waited somemore while sitting...

and moved to another seat and waited somemore...

i think we waited for a good half hour or so and the queue was still soo freaking long. sooo, we walked away and waited by the roadside somewhere for about 5 minutes before we got a taxi. yeay!!! being a typical malaysian and not waiting at taxi stands ftw!!!

we got back to our hotel to shower and get dressed for dinner. and you guessed it! will be saving that for next time :)

last picture for this entry.

a friend asked me about the best fruit pie ever. i tried zooming into the pictures and i think the place is called Fruit Paradise but i'm very sure it was in Vivo City. here, have a look at the menumouth waters*

day 2 in Singapore began pretty early cause we had a pretty early night. we were awoken at abt 930 by housekeeping. i was still half asleep downstairs and i could vaguely hear the conversation between cheryll and housekeeping.

housekeeping: morning! you want to do your laundy?
cheryll: what?!
housekeeping: laundy??
cheryll: huh???? ohh!! laundry... no thanks.

and oh the day before, me and mel went to look for housekeeping to get towels and omg, they do not understand a word of english. it took us a few minutes trying to explain to her about wanting a towel. and another girl came along wanting a band aid but she couldn't speak mandarin too. soo, there we stood, 3 bananas using sign language to get what we wanted.

and if you've worked with me or seen me in the recent months, you've probably heard me sing our self written song already. it will totally kick rebecca black's friday song. its not the same for me to write out the lyrics. soo, the next time you see me, i'll totally sing it to you :)

day 2 was spent totally on just eating and shopping. *sigh what a perfect holiday.
the obligatory camwhoring picture.

walking out to orchard road.

oh hai, its me :)

these 2 pictures above are the only 2 pictures we have taken outside on orchard road. cause the rest of the day was spent indoors.

we first went to this place for breakfast. it's called Wild Honey. in ion mall if i'm not mistaken. there was a pretty long queue already by the time we got there.

and so, we went to walk around first and to visit Melissa's shop!

but it was pretty quick before it was our turn already.

the place was this quaint little cafe with mismatched furniture everywhere. the breakfast menu was pretty interesting.

well, while waiting, there's nothing else to do besides taking pictures of oneself.

my friends ordered the eggs benedict and according to them, it was the best they have ever had. this toast was thick and fluffy yet crispy and it was topped with poached eggs, ham and a generous amount of mushroom and holandaise sauce. if it wasnt for the ham, i would have swooped the whole piece into my mouth. but my friend was kind enough to cut me a piece of ham-free portion to try. it was goodd.....

i myself ordered... okay... i can't remember what this is called but it was somewhat like french toast but with mango stuff inside the bread and it was served with maple syrup, blueberry sauce and that cream cheese type thing. and oh my days, it was like there was a little piece of heaven in my mouth. my description of it may sound super osom but omg, it tasted soooo very good. and in the words of cheryll "there's like a party going on in my mouth" when you mix everything up together. something you should totally try when you go to singapore especially if you love mango. noms noms...

probably not the best idea to blog about this when fasting. good thing its at night now. and guess what! as much as i was itching to go out tonight, i ended up spending the night cleaning up my photo albums, catching up friends and blogging. but it was nice. very fulfilling.

sign of old age catching up with me? :0

the day i wished i was a disney princess.

2011-07-31T21:59:00.002+08:00

alright heads up, emo post coming right up.

i am going to totally blame it on the time of the month being just around the corner.

but today's one of those days where work just became sickening. people always say "your health comes first" or "your family comes first". as much as i want that to be true, the amount of times i continued on working despite feeling sick or having some family function is countless.

we just moved house and i'm feeling really bad about stuff. like how my mom is packing and unpacking the house singlehandedly. i want to help her yet at the same time, who is going to complete this accounts. and my mom feels totally bad for asking for my help cause of all those late nights i've been working, she thinks i should get some rest. but what i really want to do is to just throw my laptop out my balcony and get my life back.

it's been ages since i last saw my boyfriend and my friends. it feels like they've found new friends to hang out with. omg, im going to die alone, aren't i?

and with baby ezra in the house, i barely get to see him despite living under the same roof as him. the only time i see him is in the morning before i go to work. which explains why i've been arriving work a lil later these days.

and most important of all, i could really use some sleep. i think my eye bags are scaring the kids away T______T

sigh* i miss going out. i want to go to the cinema! i want to go karaoke! i want to go dancing! you never appreciate the fact that you can do all these things until you're sitting at home on a friday or saturday night typing away some numbers into excel which probably no one really cares about or you sleep at a ridiculously loser hour like 9pm or something cause you're simply too exhausted from the weeks work.

this feeling i'm feeling right now? not osom!

but guess what, gonna get back to work. bladihel. bladihel indeed.

the truffle fries which gave jean a foodgasm.

2011-07-29T23:14:00.006+08:00

today was one of those few days which i arrived home within the same day i went to work.

and between the choice of blogging and playing jojo's fashion show again, i actually chose blogging. which right now, i'm still wondering whether it's the wiser choice. although, i think the wisest choice would be to actually get some sleep.

but i don't know, blogging has always had this therapeutical effect on me. eventhough i don't think anyone bothers reading anymore with my inconsistent updates.

still going on about my singapore trip which i really wish i could be on another one. the trip spent on just shopping and food without even looking at our watches once.

btw, the hotel we stayed in was this loft style apartment called Studio M.
it has 2 floors. the top floor is where the bed and tv is and the bottom floor has an extra sofa bed and separate toilets and bathroom. but mind you, they are really tiny though.

but the awesomest part about this hotel is its staircase which is ideal for camwhoring!
the number of timer shots we took on the staircase is uncountable!

but throughout our trip, most of our time was actually spent on getting dressed.
all dressed up in our bathrobes and getting prettified was food for our exhausted souls.

that night, we had dinner at this place called Barracks @ Dempsey and it was one delicious fullfilling dinner. when we looked across at the rest of the tables, we noted that people were sharing their food in groups of 2 or 3s. but greedy us order a main meal for ourselves each. and no regrets there, they were delicious.
didn't take pictures of the food except for mine which was a skinny pizza with turkey slices, cheese and cranberry sauce. my mouth waters just thinking about it again.

but the thing that really affected jean was the truffle fries. she even ordered another portion of it. i don't think any other truffle fries could ever compare. but honestly, they were really really good. like no kidding, it was freakingly osomly delicious truffle fries.

cause we totally didn't have enough sleep the night before, we went back to our hotel right after dinner. and took a couple more pictures before going to bed.

which i really feel like doing right now. going to bed. nite!

the day we had the best fruit pie ever!

2011-07-23T22:19:00.005+08:00

i am 5 seconds away from dozing off cause i have become this person who needs like 20 hours of sleep.

but prolly just a quick one.

when we were in Singapore, all we did there was eat and shop. on our first day, we went to this place st vivo city. can't remember the name of the shop now but the fruit pies they had were to die for!

look at that monstrous beauty!!! there were soo many choices but in the end, we chose mango strawberry.

the only complain i have about this is... they should given us a bigger slice!
but omg, the base was soo buttery and absolutely delicious. i'm salivating just reminiscing about this cake.

and of course, no outing is complete without taking pictures of ourselves :S

ok, good night darlings.

Cheryllbrating in Singapore

2011-07-17T11:23:00.011+08:00

for Cheryll's bday, we decided to go for a trip to Singapore!

poor Cheryll had to do all the planning herself cause we auditors were just busy all the time. i helped her search for hotels though and initially, we intended to get a backpackers cause we wanted a room where all 4 of us cld bunk together. but all the backpackers usually had 8 to a room and we wanted our privacy.

somehow, our searches got sidetracked to boutique hotels and ah, they were absolutely gorgeous! go check out The Scarlet hotel. the website had this goth vampire theme going on. LOVE IT! at one point, we even considered staying in Marina Bay Sands!

but eventually, we settled with a pretty little loft style hotel which we totally love for reasons which will be revealed later.

only a week before our planned date of departure, our flights and hotels was booked. we had no itinerary planned out. it was going to be a random spontaneous trip!

it all began saturday morning and it was a 5.40am flight!! i still had work to be settled and replicated and soo, i was up till 2am trying to complete it. in the mean time, i also had to pack! thank god ian volunteered to pick me up that morning cause if i had to go myself, would have totally missed my flight cause i turned my alarm off when it rang and it took ian to call me a couple of times before i finally woke up.

we got to the airport on time, with plenty of time to spare for McDees breakfast!

come 5.40am, off we flew to Singapore.

even with less than 2 hours of sleep, we still look pretty good ;)

upon arrival, we dumped our stuff at the hotel and off we go to the beach.
totally channelling my ANTM mode in the train.

after 5 minutes spent in the toilet, we looked like this...

it's as if it was the 2nd day already. but i think it was 8 something in the morning and we were already up and about FOL.

and since we were super sleepy and tired already, guess what we did?!!

we found ourselves some lounge chairs and TOOK A NAP BY THE BEACH! yeah, we totally went all the way to singapore for that :)

but let me tell you, AWESOME weather that day for a nap. it was shady and the wind was breezy. LOVED IT!

our nap was followed by a million camwhore pics.

cheryll totally photobombing my picture :O

Cheryll-brate 2011! and this is followed by the cheryll-brate dance... no kidding, there's a dance!

and then mel woke up too!
and we got hungry and went searching for food.

we found ben and jerry's but it wasn't open!!!! soo we waited for it to open.

the girls got really impatient and helped the shop girl open the door locks. yeah, we really wanted our ice cream.
and then, we is happy :)

and thus, marks the end of the first morning in Singapore.

have to stop here. lots of work to do! laytah!

Malaysia, tanah air ku.

i've never been big on following politics. never understood it.

so, when there was talk that a rally was gonna happen last Saturday, i had no idea what was going on. all i knew was; there'll be road blocks everywhere and don't wear yellow out that day.

but i must say, i was extremely confused on what was really going on. as far as i could tell, the whole Bersih rally was because the people wanted to ensure a fair election in this coming one. and the next thing i knew, everyone wanted to be a part of the rally. opposition was taking the opportunity to have their say in it, somebody decides its some racist rally going on and there was another demonstration going against Bersih having their demonstration. and this just threw me away! if people were going against Bersih, it would mean they don't want a fair election? right? but they called themselves Patriots. what's up with that? they should all just have a write up on what they're rallying for.

anyway, come Sunday morning, i open up twitter and saw that Bersih was trending and i started reading all those #Bersihstories. and let me tell you, social media is amazing! the thing that our local media should know by now is that you can't bullshit the public. try as they might to be not bias, everyone still knows they're being controlled by the government.

but let me tell you, after reading all those tweets, it was truly inspiring. it gave me goosebumps reading about how everyone was helping each other out regardless of their race or religion. here are just some of the comments.

you can also find videos online but this one made me teared. click here
if was a really peaceful rally. very mild, if you ask me. we didn't even make it to CNN, only al-jazeera news and it was only for a couple of minutes. the police orders were probably to disperse the crowd but *sigh* its really sad how things turned. but in a way, it was all those police attacks which actually made the people help each other and appreciate one another. if you have the time, you should totally check all those stories and videos out!

parts where the whole crowd is singing negaraku together, its one of those times you actually feel "wow, we are truly 1Malaysia".

but sadly, our prime minister's comments on the rally was this. if i was on the fence on things before this, he totally pushed me onto the other side.

I drank coffee to stay up to do my tax. But I think I'm somewhat done with it but bladihel, I still feel wide awake despite my eyeballs hurting. I never blogged thru email before. Not sure whether this is going to go thru. But if it does, it'll be beyond cool. Maybe I'll blog more. Just maybe. Ok, gonna upload a pic just to see if it works...

about 10,000 months ago, i went for super junior's concert. hence, the title. if you don't have interest in super junior, you're probably going to think i'm crazy cause i queued for 8 hours to get their tickets. yeah, you heard me right. EIGHT FREAKING HOURS! but i must say, it was totally worth it.

soraya was still in Perth at that time, so i went to buy tickets with her sister. had to buy for a high school friend as well which she backed out later. pfft...

and mind you, i think i went for karaoke the night before and got home around 1am. was at sungei wang by 5am!!

and to my surprise, there was already a crowd!! they've been there since the night before!! the doors to sungei wang weren't even open yet, so we hung around until about 8.30-ish. everyone was just squeezing and somehow, we were at the back of the line T____T

and within the seconds, the queue extended way far far far...

fastforward to 1.30pm, i finally got to the front of the queue. i had to queue up alone cause sue's cousin and sister had to leave. soo, i made friends with the people around. that was when i felt a lil old lol.

19 March 2011
Concert day

somehow, with a lot of seats switching, i got to sit with sue and her cousin instead of alone. yeay!

the stage.

oh hai, itz us!

the blue sapphire lights were everywhere to represent super junior's colour.

free banners were being given out. my fav, baby kyu.

i'm not going to bother with captions for the next few pictures. i have very few pictures though cause most of them turned out really blur. but... Enjoy!

henry with the violin.

leeteuk in the air!

and them making their rounds, greeting the fans.

kyuhyun threw a ball and sue caught it. and since he touched the ball and the ball touched our cheeks, its as if he touched our cheeks bwahahahahaha.

thank you and good night.

i usually don't blog very often but sometimes, things happen which makes me want to write about while it's still fresh in my mind.

a few weeks back, my sister's friends were soo nice to plan her a surprise bday party. the selected location was Kokopelli Travellers Bistro @ Section 14. it's one of those converted bungalows in PJ which have been reviewed to have really nice ambience. even my friend have mentioned it to me saying that the food is averagely priced and it's not bad.

and so, my sister's friend actually met up with the owner beforehand telling him that they plan to have a party and they intend to play games etc. and he told them, no problem at all.

fast forward to today.

honestly, the food was very mediocre. nothing to shout about, really. and for that price (approx RM10+ for local cuisines and RM20+ for pasta and pizzas), i would have expected a slightly larger portion. and service was extremely slow considering we were the first few customers to arrive.

but despite all that, i still thought it was a pretty nice place.

and then, they started playing the games and naturally, there was a lot of laughter going on. and would you believe, the owner came to us and said "i'm sorry but can you all keep it down. i have guests who wants to have dinner here. if you had booked out the whole place, it's fine. but i'm trying to run a business here. i hope you all understand". and it wasn't even said in a polite, professional tone but a tone that just pisses the hell out of you. i mean seriously, WTF.

are we not paying customers too?
did we not tell you in advance we are having a party and we're planning to play games?
did you not say it was ok?

way to kill the mood of the party, dude! right after that, we all packed up to leave. and i doubt anyone will ever want to hold an event there anymore, even if it's a small gathering with friends. shame on you, mister owner for making my sisters' friends feel bad about organizing a party there.

overall, it was a place with mediocre food, slow service and bad PR. definititely won't be going there anytime soon.

buble is love.

2011-06-18T21:34:00.000+08:00

would you believe i started writing this post on 4 june and all it had was this sentence,
"way back in March (oh mah days, i'm 3 months behind!), my lovely, lovely mother decided to treat the whole family to buble's concert."

and that was it! but moving along, MB has to be one of the best concert i've been to.

ticket was to be collected at kl sentral and since, it's near office, i had the honour of collecting it! the guy at the ticket collection was cute lol.

unfortunately, it was raining cats and dogs that day. ridiculously heavy!! and all we had was 1 large umbrella and medium sized one for 5 of us to share. my carefully put on make-up was washed away by the rain and my dress and shoes were drenched!

prolly due to the rain, the concert was a little delayed.
but it was first opened with the unveiling of the new Audi A1. ooohh aahhhhh!

opening act was fellow ex-sri amanian, Najwa!!! she was gooooooddd...

but bring on MICHAEL BUBLE!

the stage was soo pretty with different colours every song.

and out he runs!!!

and let me tell, he's not only a really good singer live...

he's an extremely entertaining performer with jokes made in between each songs. so so so charming.

i didn't many pictures cause the lights were too bright and for some reason, alot of it didn't come out right. soo, i just gave up and enjoyed the show.
somewhere towards the middle of the show, he actually came down from the stage to sign some girl's banner. *jealous*

and towards the end, he came in front of us to perform.

overall, it was a F-AWESOME concert. i felt like it was a bit short though. but if he ever comes back, i am definitely going again!!

the day the earth shook.

2011-06-14T14:47:00.002+08:00

i actually have a couple of blog entries in my draft right now, unpublished, cause i've been too busy/lazy to finish writing it. for all i know, i won't even finish writing this entry.

but today was another day i felt the earth shook.

here i was sitting, happily typing away the minutes of a meeting i attended, which was in cantonese btw. i so osom sometimes, it scares me! anyway, back to my story, i was happily typing away on my laptop when i felt like the table and chair and god knows what else was swaying. and you probably already know this about me, i have air/water/movement sickness. and so, the swaying kinda left me a little light headed. but silly me, i thought i was light headed thats why the room was swaying. only when the clients got all excited and started a commotion, i realized it was probably tremors from the earthquake in Sumatra which i heard on the radio this morning.

an hour later, the fire alarm went off. immediately, i stood up, ready to pack up my laptop cause i was sure as hell not going to leave it behind. patethic, i know! but the client came in and told me, nothing to worry about. well, that's what i assume he was trying to tell me cause i was still in a somewhat panicky "omg, i need to save my work" mode. but if everyone's going to continue sitting around, well guess what, so will i!

because being 10 month preggers is totally IN.

2011-06-08T00:50:00.004+08:00

i was chatting with kitty yesterday and she told me about churpchurp's cutest thing contest. she read it from timothy tiah's blog and once i saw that churpchurp pen drive, it was like love at first sight!

and okay, i know never in a million years i'm gonna win this thing cause hundreds and hundreds of girls were putting their most kawaii/aegyo pictures. but hey, it's worth a shot no?

i had a picture in mind and read the requirements for this thing just in case i got it wrong.
they are as follows:

Cutest (adj)

Definition:
Adorable, fun & playful Check! i think.
Have a passion for posing in photos Totally check!
Best if have props together in photos There's a cushion involved. Check!

And so, the lucky photo which i had chosen is....

*drum roll please*

bwhahahahahahaa!

okay lah, it may not be the cutest. but A+ for effort?

but if you do like me enough to want me to win the oh-so-cute pendrive, vote for me! i think you can do so by clicking here.

if that doesn't work, you can just go to my FB profile page. you can see the link there as well. go on, be a dear! i promise that if i win that pen drive, i would totally let you plug it into your own laptop for a few minutes or so :)

p/s: i'm not really preggers yea. suddenly people think my lack of blogging with pictures is due to my pregnancy. *BIG GASP* that would make an osom plot but no. not pregnant, just chubs ;)

pp/s: outfit courtesy of trendy mommy.

gnite and thank you loves.

the day i kinda miss Melbourne.

2011-06-03T13:01:00.004+08:00

whenever i stumble upon people's pictures or blog posts about Melbourne, i get this nostalgic feeling. but as time goes by, the memory of that place is getting fainter.

restaurants which i used to frequent every week, i can't even remember their names anymore.

my friend tried to tell me something about Myers and David Jones and i just gave her a blank stare and an obligatory nod without having a clue what she was talking about.

i can't remember when the seasons are nor what the time difference is anymore. couldn't even remember when daylight saving is! me, my mom and my bro had a whole discussion about daylight savings the other day and nops, i still don't know when it is.

soo many things happened within that 2 years i was there. i still remember faces. but not so much with names.

but i still remember the feeling i felt when i was there...

happy :)

i was still somewhat rainbows and butterflies back then. despite people calling me naive for seeing the world in an array of colours, i miss being that girl.

i miss the girl i used to be and hence, i kinda miss Melbourne.

now my world just seems somewhat bleak and grey. but fret not, i've been putting an effort in not just wearing black and grey outfits just to brighten my day a little.

sorry for the lack of posts lately. i'll probably resume blogging when i'm not soo busy anymore. at the rate i'm going, don't hold your breathe ok!

and but fret not about me, i'm still being osom.

XOXO.

oh, in other news.

HAPPY TWFIFTEENTH BIRTHDAY SORAYA!!!!! wow, that would be a mouthful to say.
may all your dreams and wishes come true. don't ever change cause you are perfectly osom the way you are. hope you'll have one of the best bdays back in KL. big huge LOVE, HUGS and KISSES. and oh, Jesse Bradford says hi. totally can't get over his smirk.

hello blog.

2011-05-20T01:37:00.001+08:00

do people need to point out my flaws on a daily basis? i chubs, i get it. don't need to be reminded about it.

i secretly want to cry.

i'm really really tired.

on a lonely night in the office.

2011-05-19T21:56:00.002+08:00

i have 5 accounts to complete by the end of the night and here i am, blogging! lol

but *deep breathe* i can do this!

it's always those times where i have some crucial deadline to meet when i suddenly itch to open up my blog and type something, nothing relevant or important, just random words to fill up this white space.

nothing much has happened this week really. with the exception of my almost falling of a chair. yeah, that was totally the highlight of my week. cause after i almost fell of the chair, the chair's wheel somehow got hooked on to my shoe and i almost fell again. and you know bad things always comes in three? yeah. i then poured water down my top. well, not intentionally of course. i haven't reached that point of psychoness yet.

lately, the need to get out of this line of work is erm... i don't know... whats an OTT word for "really strong"? well, you know what i mean. it's so strong to the point that i actually considered prostitution for like a split second. but only because someone put the thought in my head. please! i'm not that desperate. then, another friend suggested selling off all my clothes. it would have worked if i actually owned branded things. but almost all my clothes are purchased online or from bangkok or factory outlets in bandung and the rest are gifts from people.

aaaahhh... i guess i have no choice but to pursue my career as a kpop singer named e.sha
LOL :)

ok. back to work. night lovelies.

the truth hurts.

2011-05-11T22:53:00.000+08:00

confession of an accountant.

2011-04-29T10:14:00.002+08:00

to say that i've lost all interest in blogging will be a lie cause every so often, my fingers would itch to type something. even a line or two simply to say "Hello blog".

but lately, i have found it extremely hard to take some time to even open up blogger.com
i don't even upload fb pictures on time anymore! and it's not like i've been having a jolly good time outside this little online world.

honestly, i don't even know what i've been doing lately besides work.
i have become.... A BORING ACCOUNTANT TYPE PERSON! *GASPSSS*

but whatever, this boring accountant type person is going to Bangkok tomorrow.

bye bye my darlings.

by george, i solved it.

2011-04-26T20:24:00.004+08:00

i was wondering why Al Leo was being so defensive.

he quickly tagged himself in week 2 pictures.
he's leong kok weng, i guess. still means Mandarin Gallery does not adhere to their own rules.

pissing me off on a Monday.

2011-04-26T00:09:00.007+08:00

i wrote on Mandarin's gallery fb picture.

and got a reply.

does Al Leo think im stupid or something?

i checked week 2 winners as well obviously.

if you do a reconciliation, you will see that there's one winner whose name is not there... Leong Kok Weng. unless you're saying its Alec Mangsinco. but if you see week 1, Leong Kok Weng won too! but no Alec was tagged in week 1's picture.

and the plot thickens. dum dum dum...

there's no fury like a women's scorn.

2011-04-21T23:24:00.007+08:00

i'm gonna skip through all my oh-so-fun moments and go straight to angry complains.

on our last day of visiting Singapore, we came across this competition being held in Mandarin Gallery ("MG"), one of their shopping malls. it was called Fashion Rocks - PIC ME

the game was simple.

they would upload a picture of a fashion item. all you had to do was find the item, take a picture of it, upload it to facebook and tag MG's page on it.

and the first item was easy. one look at it and you would know it's a marc jacob's bag. since we had nothing much to do that morning, four of us rushed to Marc Jacobs, snapped a photo of the bag, uploaded it to fb and guess what! we couldn't tag MG's page on it.

we went back to the concierge to check with the lady there. she was really really nice and helpful. she called up management and a few minutes later, they changed the rules of it.

so now the rules were, email the picture to them and tag yourself in the picture to qualify.
we did just that and went on our merry ways.
we were pretty confident that at least a few of us would win it cause there were only 2 people tagged on the photo before us 4. and one of the girls who tagged herself, she was still trying to figure out how the competition worked by the time we left.

by the time we came back to malaysia, it was written on the picture that winners will be announced on Monday (7 April) which if you check, 7 April is not a Monday. but whatever la ok. after a while, with still no word, my friend actually called up MG to check on the status on things and you know what they told her? that we've been disqualified cause our pictures were duplicates. it was a really dumb reason seriously and my friend got pissed and told them we could proof that our pictures were original.

ding dong ding dong, they told her that she had won the bag and the rest of us didnt win cause we were late in submission. so we wrote another email to them seeking clarification on how the winners were won. and this was their reply:
and another of my friend was really pissed and replied their email cause if you see the winners for the bag, 2 of them weren't even tagged into the photo eventhough it has been clearly stated that you need be tagged in it to qualify.
and to proof we didnt send duplicate pictures, the four pictures are as follows:
i admit they look similar laaa cause hello, we took it the same time. but if you look carefull, the positioning and colours are abit different with them being taken by BB and iphones and all.

btw, they didnt reply our email anymore. haih, seriously, i dont even think the bag is all that. but its just the principle of it. i'm so tempted to launch an attack on their FB. but i don't think it's worth the trouble. but im just really annoyed and pissed.

but if you ever see Mandarin Gallery in Singapore. don't go into it. just give it an evil stare and a lil curse for good measure.

inspiration to blog.

2011-04-11T22:42:00.002+08:00

today i read a blog that made me feel like blogging and so i told myself "when i go home tonight, i'm gonna blog".

and so, here i am. typing. blogging. whatever. but sadly, my muse has probably went to bed already or something. cause right now, all i feel like doing is editing my pictures.

but you see, here's the thing. my home laptop can't detect my camera memory card. only my work laptop can. however, too lazy to on my work laptop. and if i really wanted to get my pictures from the camera, i will have to use the camera cable which well, i have no idea where it is since we moved. oh yeah, we moved! temporarily though.

oh bummer. internet decided to be slow and lame. this would make posting this entry a tad bit difficult.

how i wish i was an heiress to some worldly greatness. not having to work at all. cause right now, it feels like it's monday everyday. when friday is the day to be.

dunno why everyone is hating on that rebecca black song. its so catchy! and the lyrics are hilarious yet so motivating. when i was singing that song everyday, it felt like the week went by faster cause everyday felt like a Friday! i miss those days.

i would choose rebecca black over bieber. or even taylor swift anyday!

it somehow seems like every conversation i have or anything i write leads back to rebecca black.

forget bieber fever, i've got the black plague lol.

after almost a month long hiatus.

2011-04-04T21:03:00.000+08:00

i honestly have no idea where all my time went. in a wink of an eye and *BAM* its april.

today, i'm taking some time off from working and stalking and all that jazz to update my pitiful blog. and i'm the mood for CNY!

oh gosh, CNY was so long ago, it feels like the next CNY is coming right up. lol

so, this year's CNY was definitely different from the past few years. since my aunty passed away last year, her family is suppose to be in mourning for the next 1 year and hence, no celebrating CNY in their house this year. off we go to my aunt's house in KL for CNY and down from Penang the rest of the family comes!

regardless of where we are, we will always have steamboat reunion dinner on CNY eve. yum yum yum...

got my nails done right before CNY which is a big no-no cause nail parlours were packed everywhere! and there was a CNY surcharge. plus, it was totally lacking the relaxing feeling when you go for a mani pedi. it was a very hit and run kind of service that day. what more, the nail polish started chipping of on CNY day itself!

un-happy!

anyway, CNY has always been one of my favourite celebration! after my bday ;)

its filled with red decoration everywhere

angpow packets! tell me who doesn't love money. come on, tell me...

yummilicious sometimes vegetarian food. only sometimes vegetarian cause errr... i don't abide to the first day vegetarian rule. and so, you can see asam fish right now. ohhh, soo hunger just thinking about it.

usually in Penang, first day is usually spent visiting but since we didn't really have any relatives in KL. they're mostly visiting in Penang anyway. so, we spent almost the whole day watching weird stuff on TV at my aunt's house. no kidding. super weird.

Exhibit A

day 2, relatives from Penang came and we had a mini lil open house at home. cant really say open house cause it was just us family eating. the next few photos are in no particular order.

i was appointed to transfer the cookies and chips into smaller bottles which is always such a bad idea. cause always more of it go into my mouth that the bottle. oh, seaweed chips, i miss you.

my eemak, chef for our main meal for the day, prawn mee!

CNY isn't complete without playing cards!

even the little kids are playing! although not too sure what is it they're playing

we catered Eden lamb. just the lamb.

cause its so damn freaking goodddd!!!

aih, why so cute?

mom got cupcakes!

with playboy bunnies on them lol.

i made a few bowls of prawn mee that day till i was convince i could open my own prawn mee shop only to realize i had a small problem. no idea how to make the soup :S

day 3, back to aunty's house in KL. not sure due to miscommunication or it was intentional cause my aunt's house is well, kinda petite. soo, the whole family can't fit into. see the picture down here, that's basically her whole living/sitting room and all the people you see in the picture... they're just the kids. sadly, i'm considered an adult now. had to wait for the kids to eat before all the adults could. which meant i had to waitttt!!!! *sobsssss*

got more pretty angpow packets. oh man, i love CNY!

during that CNY weekend, twoelles invited us over for an open house.

i ran out of red clothes. so, i just wore something new.

gong xi fa cai! *with bunny ears*

that was the night i re-learnt to play mah jong. but seriously, if i had to play it again, i will have to relearnt it again. bad memory.....

oh, guess what!! that marks the end of my CNY this year 2011! welcome to my year, the year of the rabbit. oh, my sister's baby is going to be a rabbit baby too!! sooooo cuteeeeee ^.^

no idea when i'll blog again. could be another 3 weeks time lol. ah well, till then!!

what you get when you hang out with lame people.

2011-03-07T23:11:00.000+08:00

Ah, its been ages since i logged into blogger that i kinda forgot my password. lol
but it's been extremely difficult finding time to blog lately. so much things have been happening and will be happening. went to buble's concert last weekend and OMGWTFBBQ IT WAS FAWESOME!!! i'll probably blog about it one day when i'm not so busy anymore.

anyway, to keep you a little entertained with some seriously lame jokes i've heard at work.

1. Q: What is the most stingy animal?

A: Horse cause when it walks, it does "ke-de-kut, ke-de-kut"

2. Q: What is the most handsome key on the keyboard?

A: F4

Pick up lines:

3.
Guy: what's your name?
Girl: . what's yours?
Girl: you can call me tonight

4.
Guy: *gets the girl to feel his shirt and asks* Can you guess what material is this?
Girl: i don't know. is it ?
Guy: no, it's boyfriend material

5.
Guy: *touches girls shirt material and asks* is this felt?
Girl: nooo.
Guy: would you like it to be?

clearance meeting day.

2011-03-06T20:47:00.004+08:00

we have deemed clearance meeting day as a bad luck day. cause last year, a friend met into an accident. so, this year, we were extra careful when crossing the roads.

and so, clearance meeting came and ended. the day came to an end. or so we thought.

it was almost 9pm i think, when we got a call from our manager. her car totally ran out of petrol and was stranded in front of beachclub.

*zoom* the team went on a little adventure. we dropped ah boy to teman our manager and me and my senior went hunting for petrol. thanks to my spidey senses, i remembered petrol stations being really nearby.

did you know you could buy petrol in a bottle? okay fine, the jakun in me never knew that. they charge you like rm5 for the bottle or something. but it's really useful. we got 2 bottles just in case and i took one home. hehehe. for what? i don't know. just because.

camwhoring while stuck in traffic :)

the 2 bottles of petrol. i like the smell of it, usually. but when it's kept right in your car, it's pretty suffocating.

we made ah boy do all the dirty work and took pictures with him. and when i say with, its him still working hard and us posing with him :S we are probably the worst seniors ever lol

Exhibit A: with SIC

Exhibit B: with me :)

and finally, i made him smile for the camera. along with the owner of the car!

an interesting night, indeed.

when auditors go mad.

2011-03-02T21:39:00.006+08:00

it's true what they say...

working hard doesn't kill anybody. but it sure does make you go a lil cuckoo in the head.

January was by far one of the worst months i've gone through, work wise. it's been much, much better lately. the lack of blogging is due to the horrid connection i get at home. streamyx is just ridiculous slow right now. it's so weak that even my ipod touch and phone can't detect. and my digi broadband gets disconnected every few minutes #&^$%&%*!

anyway, back to my initial whine and complains.

this recent peak was filled with lots of late nights, or rather early mornings. at a point of time, my senior was going back at 6am every morning whereas i had to get my butt into bed latest 4am. latest record for 2011 so far is going home at 6am and back to work at 8.30am.

and eventhough i was feeling totally meh about work, there's always a reason to smile. people were starting to think i'm on some drugs or something. but... i can't explain. one fine weekend when we were working at office, i had a sudden fascination on fans. yeah, fans! kipas, you know? i even managed to get my senior into it!

we then called my another colleague who was sitting way across the room to join our little ~~psychotic~~ happy moments.

ala ala di tepi pantai.

ala ala macam sejuk. tapi gambar sungguh tak jadi.

subsequently, we actually went around taking pictures with other random fans. but we'll save that for some other day :)

and whenever we have to work late or on weekends, we always rewards ourselves with yummylicius food i.e. McDees

i'm aware that alot of people don't really fancy McDees but their breakfast is osom!

soup, dinner and dessert at Cafe Barbera

extremely late but good korean lunch!

well, we obviously had more food that just that 3 but i don't go taking pictures of every single thing i eat *ahem*... just some of them... which are already in fb... in my project 365. so, if you're really that interested on what i eat everyday, you know where to go.

i actually have pictures a friend sent to me through whatsapp but the dumbo in me is not very sure how to transfer those pictures into my computer. can't seem to see it in any of the folders :S
ah well...

i totally got distracted and spent the last half hour playing cookie dozer. and i want to continue pla

a lil quickie.

2011-02-24T01:40:00.003+08:00

its one of those days that i got home late, but not too late.

and so i sit in front of my computer, doing my rounds of blog hopping, checking out pictures/posts in fb, read up on some missed tweets, chat with friends without having to worry about rushing some work.

i really should get some sleep now with it being 1.45am and all. but lately, all i do is work and sleep that spending time sleeping feels like a waste of time. *woahh* did i just say that? well, once upon a time, sleep was my everything. well, it still is. but when you have 24 hours a day and you spend 16 hours of it working and 6 hours of it sleeping, you're only left with a remaining 2 hours to do all your necessities i.e. eating, toilet moments, driving, etc. doing that for a month makes you kinda start questioning your existence in life. what am i doing? why am i doing this? do i have a greater purpose in life rather than just documenting numbers and words into a laptop?

sometimes, it feels like life is passing me by so quickly and i have accomplished nothing in that short time. what if the world was really ending in 2012? is what i've done so far enough?

*deep in thought*

don't know how i went from stalking people to thinking about life.

i blame it on people who made their blogs and fb page private. you're taking away my hobby, dammit.

time for myself.

2011-02-15T16:55:00.005+08:00

its been such a busy 2 and a half months, barely had time for myself. hence, the lack of blogging. but today is a public holiday that's like a real public holiday. *super likes!*

Selawat to our prophet.

need to backdate abit. wayyy back on the 2nd day of the year, i went to another wedding. this time around, it was my high school friend's wedding. people are seriously getting married left and right these days.

sadly, no one really remembered me there. well, at least i wasn't alone like all the other open houses i went to before that.

fiza, lyn and me.

and then, we went back to being auditors the next day.

nothing much happened for the next few weeks. cause if you see my Project 365, it was filled with food, food and more food.

occasionally, i managed to sneak in a couple of twoelle and jean moments.

hokaido melon ice cream @ hokaido ichiba

tiramisu @ alexis

froyo @ spoon

more soon!

New years day...

2011-02-10T01:53:00.005+08:00

was busy day indeed.

Started off with a colleague's wedding.

We were greeted by a huge banner at the front. it's so cool to have a huge picture of yourself on your wedding day! i want a banner for my wedding too.

the lovely bride whom i think is the nicest person i have ever met with no cruel intentions, no hidden agenda and no judgement whatsoever over you. a definite inspiration for me to be a better person :) i wish her all the best until her cucu cicits come out.

my next stop was twoelle's housewarming! and oh my, her house is humongous. at one point of time, there used to be this beer ad showing in the cinema where the women saw the walk in closet and started screaming. yeah... i had that moment myself when i saw cheryll's huge ass walk in closet with a cabinet just for shoes. it was only half filled when we were there. but oh myyy *fans self*

even her toilet was huge. it could totally be a hang out spot by itself.

her really cool ring. which reminds me of LoTR for some reason.

pool table and a pond in the house. i could totally live with her.

balcony! which is bigger than my bedroom :S

oh hello, it's us!

and that was all for the first day of the year. didn't do much, really. but it was really really exhausting.

today, 2 of my closest friends told me that they have a gf now. and one of the closest friend's gf is also my close friend! haha. it was something that i long suspected but i'm happy that they're happy. i couldn't stop smiling when i found out. all the best to all of you!!! :)

the disappointment.

2011-02-08T02:42:00.002+08:00

i called ian who is currently in KK right now.

Me: baby, where are you?!
Ian: in chocolate factory.
Me: OOOO!!!! BUY ME CHOCOLATES!!!!
Ian: no baby, it's a club

=______="

why are club names soo deceiving?

BTW, Happy Chinese New Year!!!! hope you all had an awesome one.

Recap for FY2010.

2011-01-25T23:07:00.005+08:00

as it's almost the end of January 2011, i think it's about time we do a little FY2010 recap! sometime during the end of December, i was somewhat inspired to write an entry about my top 10 moments of 2010. but alas, time does not permit me to do so. OMGWTFBBQ i just realized i wrote the year as FY which is commonly used in audit to mean Financial Year. damn you work. for you stalker, here was my 2009 entry.

July 2010 was a month filled with so much pain and sadness. it was the month my aunty and a friend passed away. it was 2 deaths i wasn't prepared for. 2 deaths which sent me to the edge of extreme sadness. but family and friends were there for me and i will always remember those who helped me through that sad time.

sue came back in July!! we dressed up in a vomit of colours and took pictures at the secret garden at OU.

i won tickets to MTV worldstage which help induced my sudden liking for *oh man, i forgot the name of the band already... googles....* ahh! tokio hotel! although we were surrounded by kids, it was a real fun night.
