Ok, so i still do not have my passport =/
I really really wanna go back to melb =(
It's so pointless being here really
Wasting all this time, knowing i have so much stuff to do in Melb is driving me bonkers!!!

My cough is totally killing me, and my social life!
CNY has somewhat come and gone, i missed the whole week of clubbing cos i'm sick...
At least it's a little better now :)

Stuck at home during the day cos everyone's gone to work
This could be the longest time just not doing anything!
Considering that all the times i've been back over the summer holidays have been spent working

Happy Birthday Pearly Hue!

Me love you long time!!

Celebrating @ 7atenine

I've realised (for quite some time now) that a substantial amount of money goes to eating and eating and drinking and shopping
So my "chinese" new year's resolution (since i didn't make one during new years)
Is to save! yes, i've said this a million times, we all have
It's always that oh-so-gorgeous perfect bag or pair of shoes that breaks the bank, the one that you just absolutely need to have

I need to prioritise between pretty things or nice holidays now
So hard! when the love is staring you right back in the face
And all it takes is a swipe of that card...

I'm melting!!!! This 37 degree heat is such a bitch, and its not like that, where you can dismiss it with a flick of your hand coupled with some eyeball rolling.
Ice cream is no help, and there's only so many iced LemonLimeBitters one can drink.
I don't think prancing around nekkids is gonna help much either, not with all that prancing...
Hoho just wait till its 40+ degrees girlfriend!
Ironic how i'm in the one room in the whole house without air conditioning, his room!
Cold showers serve as temporary relief and are only good to cure another kind of heat, well... maybe not
/swt (literally)

::
I've graduated!
... and am officially jobless

::
I'll be arriving in KL on the 25th (next fri!)
My return being earlier than originally planned because... I LOST MY PASSPORT! :'(
And, it has to happen just when I'm about to get all my things together for the PR application (i'm still awed that the Aust immigration would steal -cos it is daylight robbery- 5k in order to process and approve it)
And in case you're wanting to know how i'm getting back without a passport...
No, i'm not gonna stowaway on a plane/ship
Flying to Canberra this Wed to get an emergency travel document
The Malaysian Embassy had better get it all done in a day, or else (and yes that is a threat!) cos I'm not prepared to spend a night in Canberra

Ok so see you all back in KL-lah
Number hasn't changed
Whoever who reads this...

::
And OMG-lah
I better stop shopping...
Been shopping since Boxing Day, and before Xmas, post New Year, and now still shopping even though i say won't. Aih
So now you know what i do with all my free time, ya right
It's always a few items purchased here and there when i'm out
Honestly haven't been really keeping track... but it seems like i've accumulated quite a number of new things now... erk
lalala~

The First Quarter of 2007

2007-10-11T19:40:00.000+10:00

Note: Was written halfway some time ago in July, finally finishing and posting it =p

Hi there~
You still ~~visiting~~ checking my blog?
Wow, your patience is finally... rewarded??
I am still alive.
And well for that matter, depending on who's asking

I was planning to blog over the holidays but... screw you Acer! You suck.
Which also explains my disappearance from messenger, friendster, facebook etc
You could have, possibly emailed and I would have, possibly replied

A recent conversation over MSN with Jo (using a hijacked laptop *evillaugh*) just proves my persistently failing memory
The winter semester break has come to an end, it's been a month
And i hardly remember anything... :/

So i guess blogging is a good way to keep track
Ok. So, what i have done so far over the last semester and holidays, besides the usual of course
In a point form summary
Pictures like always? Erm, maybe later on depending on how i feel

- Sunbathing with Nicole on Brighton Beach
Both of us got soo sunburnt it wasn't funny
I think the probability of getting skin cancer just increased ten fold after that
Ok, so we thought we weren't getting enough of a tan... (Point to note: Take off sunnies when checking for signs of a tan)
Nonetheless, making full use of summer
Ohya, never bathe, wear red underwear then go gamble at Josh's house :p
I didn't win btw...

- BLVD
Let us not talk about it, for now :)
151 on an empty stomach spells disaster

Ryan, Amanda, Josh, HuiShan

The Boys

The Girls
The Extras... haha nolaa
Ryan's godsis Melissa, and her 2 friends

- Road Trip! Cruising along the Great Ocean Road
HuiShan was branded with the moniker GG based on her weird and disastrous choice of an ice lolly
It really was a pretty sight, all that water and rocks and sand and more water and rocks and sand, oh road too
Taking amazing pictures in an inlet, of the sun going down behind the cliffs
Xiang racing with superbikes
Losing Ryan. haha your Aurion CMI laa
I had fried chicken, slaw and fatchips for lunch at Lorne. yum
Soaking up end-of-summer rays while giving closure to the dying warmth of the summer sun

Toilet break at Torquay

One of the stopovers, where we viewed the Apostles, maybe

Foreground: Mandy, HuiShan, Pearly, Amanda, Lydia, Melissa
Background: Apostle

People who came to Melb, who I have met up with, going to/supposed to meet up with:
- Alia fr Sydney
- Esther & Shawn fr. Brissy
- Jamie, Perth
- Sam, Sydney
- Wei Cheng, Canberra
- Kang Wei, Sydney

"Victoria is so The Place To Be" ;)

Ok, so continuing where I left off... (based on a quick browse of the last few posts)
- Obsession with bedsheets
Check, still there
Obsession progressing exponentially into houseware... uh-oh

-Beer/alco tendencies
It's amazing, how the amount of indulgent binge drinking has been drastically reduced
(Prolly cos there's something else occupying my time now =p and perhaps filling up the void i once satiated with alcohol ahaha damn bs but anyways..)
No more buying 6 packs from the bottle shop downstairs to drink at home. Alone.
Only beer/guiness on tap for me now ;p
Believe it or not, i have not clubbed since those few times when i first got back to melb
Oh wow
Nope, not even once over the hols
Casual drinks of the alcoholic kind don't count
As for Pearly... i don't know bout you and your beer man, haha!
It's good, yea, but sometimes i miss it
Although i certainly don't miss the vomiting on sidewalks/toilet bowls/waste paper baskets bit

So many more updates, but i'm so tired now =(
Ohh all that sleep for 12 hours, pheww

Deal Time

2007-10-04T21:25:00.000+10:00

I remember, the first thing I bought, the first time I went grocery shopping, the first time I was here in Melbourne (to study anyway) that I still have now and have only used the first and one time, is a bottle of balsamic vinegar.
Came to me when I bought a bottle of 8 yr old aged Italian balsamic vinegar the other day.

::
MamaMonkee and JoshyBoy are coming to Melb in November. I'm soo excited! But I reckon the mother is gonna get on my nerves by the end of the week, if I'm lucky! Kaima, 8-yee, Cousins: Laura and Nicole are coming too =D

::
The time has yet to come, but it's this close. I'm graduating at the end of this year.
And the whole thing about:
- moving to a new place
- whether or not I can return to Malaysia (then to Singapore for an internship) after exams for 3-4 mths, before coming back to Melbourne to apply for an onshore PR
- money for PR application (is it really 4k?!), IELTS, migration agent, skills assessment (zomg I never knew it added up to such an amount, in.aussie.dollars.eep.)
- getting a job, here, in Aust, doing something I wanna do
- car (when I still can't drive properly)
- possible job applications and a move to Sydney
- saving money for HK shopping trip mid next year (heh heh) or Queenstown, NZ. Plus winter ski trip? zomg!
It's doing, or rather, going to, do my head in.
I'm heading into another realm, spiralling, falling, warping, zorbing into it instead of gently tippy toeing, gliding to the next step.
If i were to return to Malaysia for good instead, there would be none of this. A job, a car, accomodation, is just there, waiting for me. But I wouldn't have it any other way, this is the decision I have made.
Wish me the best.

::
Oooh itchy spots drive me insane!

I wonder if someone reads my blog. If you understand "nervv nyuu snorgle canoodle" you know who you are... and then let me know la! if not later i complain about you here how?? hehe

Gluttony

2007-09-02T04:14:00.000+10:00

Omg i just had butter prawns for dinner! *salivate*
and sambal kangkung, rendang, mussels in spicy sauce (spicy, salty, lemongrass/lime leaf tasting)

We had 3 (possibly 4) peking duck quite awhile back but it was sooo good /orgasminmouth
and pakchamkai thinghy with slices of ham and bamboo shoot in between plus stickyish sauce, don't know what the name of this dish is
And lotsa other stuff like, erm, duck soup with kai choi but not spicy wan =( beansprouts stir fried with duck
Overstuffed duckus maximus

I lurvee duck, almost as much as i love roast pork haha

I love going for dinners with adults, who know where the good food is! =p (not to mention the bill settlement too :p but i really am grateful ok =D)

The Malaysian restaurant is in Heidelberg, Peking Duck place in Blackburn
Peking duck in the city is overpriced and not that good
A little surprised peking duck here is served with some meat left on the skin
Will get the address + pics the next time for greedy foodie people in Melbourne (like me! :p) who are interested to know where

Ohyea sincei'mherebeforeiforget, short Nobu review:
- New style sashimi: Salmon Scallops
Thin slices of raw seafood drizzled with hot oil to semi cook, seasoned with yuzu, soy, sesame seed, and some other stuff
Excellent! Great for people like me who don't like the taste and texture of raw stuff.

-Crab and avocado little rolls
I didn't wanna eat it at first cos it looked like crab stick (which is yukk) but turns out its real crab meat! plus the seaweed had a nice roastyish flavour. i'm such a champ at describing flavours :)

-Beef tataki
Wagyu beef. seared then sliced, rare middle, topped with onion ponzu sauce, garlic chips etc
Lovely smokey flavour, tender and juicy. Like not love. To its credit, i'm not a fan of rare beef cos of the strong beef smell. and blood.

-Snow crab with spicy sauce and caviar
It was not bad, but not orgasmic. don't think i'll order it again

-Black cod with miso sauce (Nobu's signature dish)
I WOULD GO BACK TO NOBU JUST FOR THIS
It's an amazing sweet buttery flavour, 3/4 people who i know have tried it absolutely love it!

-Sashimi dinner set + rice + miso soup (Salmon, tuna, prawn, whiting, mackerel(?) that's all? cant remember what else)
Hmm not a fan but i loved the salmon! Coming from a person who doesn't usually eat sashimi, it is soo fresh and melt in your mouth. Excellent cuts

Looking at the menu, i didn't know what to order as quite a few of the interesting things were raw. I'm not gonna eat tempura at Nobu right :| but as it turns out, i was satisfied at the end of the dinner. Definitely going back again, soon *hinthint*, for black cod miso, tuna tataki, wanna try their wagyu steak, hope isnt too big.

Bill came up to 150 plus surprise dessert :p ^-^ *heehee*
Reasonable for the quality of food you get

Dejected Acceptance

2007-08-09T14:00:00.000+10:00

I hate to admit defeat, but statistics and mathematics is just not something i can easily comprehend
It's little wonder why we admire those who can do what we can not
It's no stranger that the more you set out to achieve, the greater the expectation, the further and more detailed are your plans into the future
The more dejected you will be when those hopes, dreams and plans don't materialise and are pushed back, consequently involving additional opportunity and financial cost

On a happier note, going to Nobu Melbourne week after next
Wanted to try Flower Drum but thought it was impossible to get a booking now
Wasn't that easy either getting a table at Nobu, considering that we're making reservations for a date a fortnight from now
I guess Jacques Reymond will have to wait...
I'm such a pig when it comes to food :p

You can tell i'm stuck at home when i start to blog a lot :p hehe

"The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup plus all the other gunk put on before
I say a little pray for you
While combing my hair now
And wondering what dress to wear now I finally decided, i'm breaking in my suede stilettos
I say a little prayer for you"

I gotta go to NAB to sort things out with them cos they don't wanna bloody give me a credit card just because i'm on a student visa? whatbullshit*snort* how am i gonna shop online?! i don't wanna use my malaysian credit card!!
actually why do i care so much when JC is already putting me as his 2nd cardholder heh heh

And then i realise...

I don't have a key to get back in! need to study (exam on friday T_T)
And i'm all ready and made up!!!(this. is of utmost importance)
I wanted to drop by KitCosmestics @ Myer summore
I can't even get a hazelnut caramel latte from starbucks downstairs
I'm stuck at home. This sucks.

*tsktsk* hissy fit just 4 hours after waking up. so incorrect for blood pressure.

Someone save meeeee

Pure Luxe

2007-03-22T19:21:00.000+11:00

I so know what i'm gonna splurge on with my first permanent job paycheck
Forget luxury bags, a holiday, or car downpayment

One Thousand thread count egyptian cotton sateen bed linen

Is the way to go!
Pillowcases, sheets, quiltcover, the works
Considering that we spend 1/3 of our life in bed, i think it's a pretty good deal!

You probably think wth! and can't appreciate what i'm getting at
But if you've ever felt 1000 thread count sheets... you'll know. ohH yesss, you'll know =)
So orgasmic to the touch, it's like caressing the smoothest, silkiest... softest girl's ass =p

Part 2

2007-03-13T02:43:00.000+11:00

Doing things the old skool way as of late has proved to be extremely gratifying
From choosing a postcard from my travels and sending it off to loved ones
to...
Locating and borrowing a book from the library (for reading pleasure, not studies)
I had the biggest grin of satisfaction on my face when i found the collection of Wilde's work
I never knew my uni library held such treasures
Heck, i'd never even been to that floor before!

I am beginning to really appreciate the simple pleasures in life, more than i ever have before
Evidenced by these 2 consecutive posts
The soujourns in the sun with beer, warming my face, warming me, warming my heart, puts a beeg smile on my face (could be the beer)

Blonde... is the new Black

Addictive:
Coriander
The smell of gunpowder

2007-03-08T15:46:00.000+11:00

The simple things in life are not over rated

Waking up, when you want to
To a bowl of steaming hot pasta, and a glass of wine
Is so much bliss in itself
Serendipitous surprises are the little bubbles of happiness that keep life interestingly afloat

And then everything is right in the world
:)

A New Beginning

2007-02-27T19:44:00.000+11:00

Went to have my hair cut short on a whim this arvo
I've had the same hairstyle for about 2 years and i thought that now would be a good time for a change
A new look for the new year, a new beginning

So much has changed over the past few months, and i feel i've grown a lot as a person including my outlook on things that matter. Fundamentally though, i am still the same person, so no worries that i might go mental on you ok!
I am really looking forward to this year, along with increasing personal expectations of what i hope to achieve. I've felt that i've missed out on many things over the recent years, and this year my only resolution is to grow as an individual
It's about time i make time for me
I'm not being selfish cos at the end of the day, just wanting to be that little bit better as a person

I think i'm gonna get my tongue pierced next week
And when my hair is longer, get some curls and dye it tokyo blonde =D or summat
OhkayYy, i'm probably suffering from some sort of pre-work crisis, seeing as how this is my last yr at uni and i'm trying to make it worthwhile
Doing things like playing with my hair before i can't anymore due to professional reasons
Or maybe 21-year old crisis! (if there even is such a thing!)

Not quite what i expected because of my hair texture (too straight and floppy), but i like it!
Pretty versatile style though!

::Fresh out::

Right side
Kinda retro 60's looking yea

Here comes the hairspray and wax!

Not quite but getting there!

edit
So far only my mum thinks i should have kept my long hair
And maybe she's right, only your mum will tell you the truth and not mince their words!
Honestly, i miss my long hair
I feel like a little boy when i don't look at my refelection every 5 minutes or so!

Home Sweet Home In Melbourne Anyway...

2007-02-27T04:22:00.000+11:00

Blogged about it about a year ago *here*
Pictures taken about a year ago as well... amazing procrastinator that i am!
Just thought i'd put it up now since Nicole and i are staying put and not moving anywhere

++

Hello! Welcome to my little apartment!
As you walk through the front door, the first door on your left would be the bathroom.
This is where i have my showers, brush my teeth, do laundry (washing machine and dryer inside hidden space to your left, i don't do chinese laundry ok! even tho i'm chinese...)

My bathroom and that's my reflection taking a pica

Now, on to the 2nd door...
My room!

Picture from yonks time ago, even before i had a study table
Wish i didn't need to have one (room would look soo much nicer) but i am a student okayy
So it's inevitable

One of the best things about my room is...
The dimmable (is this even a word?!) downlights
Ooo mood lighting! haha

Then my table came and i had to swap the bed over to make way

Table fits in nicely like this, it's the only way!
Cos i wanted to keep the bed central to the room

Ok but this is from like one year ago
So much has changed, my room is full of crap
Need to move stuff out that shouldn't be there so i can return my bedroom to it's pre existing condition, like in the pictures above!

Just cos i colour block my wardrobe doesn't make me strange okayyY
Just a little anal =p

Why there is a light in the wardrobe... i do not know!

Kthxbai
timetogetout!

Tendencies

2007-02-26T00:23:00.000+11:00

Another reason why i heart
Absolutly cracked me up!

"This precious vodka was distilled from grain born and raised in the bling-blinging fields of southern Sweden. Vodka has been shining under the a.k.a of Absolut since 1879. This bottle is one of the few to be dressed up for the party. Unlike the threads, the spirit inside is the real thing."

Bottles of alco in the apartment, mostly unopened
We're not alcoholics!
5 of it brought by Nicole's mum
Thanks aunty! haha
We promise to be good and not drink it all at one go!

What I Have Been Doing So Far If You'd Like To Know

2007-02-25T09:59:00.000+11:00

Waiting in a terminal alone brings out friendliness is some people (which is scary ew go away don't even try to strike up a conversation lookawaylookawayquick!)
Having 2 lcd screens looking down at you while you're mindlessly clicking away on the laptop is depressing
Coming home to an empty room and too big a bed is sad
Anything alone is depressing, really; really depressing

Mmm aussie beer! How i miss you!
Taking that first sip of sweet bubbly golden yummyness (as opposed to the bitter shite msian beer yuckS can) very very delightful mmm

Met up with Jen-Hai to catch up
Off we go to St Kilda beach!
Since deprived moi has not been to a beach in Melbourne, missed out on summer last year by staying in too much and then autumn/winter came too soon
Only sad prior experience ever was watching the illuminated white wave tops roll to shore in the dark of the night from the warmth of the second floor of a restaurant overlooking the beach while having nice dinner in the company of a then special someone and mentioned someone's friends, like isn't this the longest continuous sentence ever? haha

"Aaahh!"
(Jen coincidentally turning a corner at that same moment)
/slams brake
"Whattwhat?!"
"KITES!!!!" =D
-_-
"Thought what... almost accident you know..."
"Sorry... kites... there..." *pointpoint* =DD
Kite surfing. (make sense? no?)
"Surfing" using a wake board sized board, person holding on to U-shaped kite as a tool to harness power of wind, enabling them to do fancy schmancy jumps
It is pretty cool.

I never thought St Kilda could be as nice as it is.

Beer for breakfast might be overdoing it...
At one of the beachfront cafes, nice, got drunken MILFS at 5 in the evening
Hahaha!

The camera quality of nokia phones are pretty swell don't you think?
Picas taken using 6280!

Aqueous Vitae

2007-02-25T06:57:00.000+11:00

I stood in front of the mirror, noticed white against the pink
Yanked off a piece of dry skin from my bottom lip
To, firstly feel a sharp sting, watch crimson slowly well up in the gash of lacerated flesh, then taste the salty tang of my own vitae
I have never thought the taste of blood as metallic, always salty with a hint of delicate sweetness
Then again, i've never consumed enough an amount of blood to actually taste it, the way a wine taster might
Rolling and curling the precious liquid, so as to penetrate the deepest crevice, bathing every single tastebud in pure pleasure
I wish i could visualise my thoughts, seeing as how i fail miserably trying to describe them in writing

But omg, why the sudden morbidness
It feels like one of my alter egos (and believe me i have many, and an immense one too)
I scare myself sometimes, i do

Morning After

2007-02-22T16:46:00.000+11:00

I don't think i've ever been so shite faced before
I usually puke and pass out
Keeping it down, brings all the talkcock out =p

kZ: hope nothing stupid happened... if it did, great! =P
seraph: haha I was the stupid that happened la

Twas a good night!
I don't have a hangover, i never have hangovers! in your face! bwahaha

Thanks everyone for coming, for layaning
Pearly, me lub joo long time! ;) muax
Andrew, for organising everything and making sure i had a good time
I really did =)
Thanks Stu for driving us there
Junee for lending me your scarf and being a damn onz skanking partner eheh
Mervin, for always being there for me

For those who couldn't make it... you guys suck! ahaha

Back to packing... sobsob

Goodbye, For Now

2007-02-22T16:18:00.000+11:00

note: wrote this yesterday but didn't have the time to complete and post

Mambo tomorrow!!!! =D
It's a whole pick 'n mix bag of emotions this time, although not entirely by choice
...it means my time here is up
My last time at Velvet, for a lonnggg time to come
I hope it won't change much by the time i return, loving it there!
Or worse still, close!

Like how Atmosphere has become but a sad, boarded up building
Looking at it through the window, just another passing car
Those times, and all the memories of it during the heydays
Snippets of it like a video montage, come rushing trickling back
Trickling snippets why? because i was off my face most of the time there haha! =p

The past month has just been awesome, a myriad of people and events occuring, serendipitously i might add
A perfect close to the year, if you go by the chinese calendar anyway!
All of this makes going back ever so difficult
I am thankful, and so fortunate for all the people who make up the parts of my picture, that has fallen into place just right
When you look back in retrospect, you notice how much things have changed, or how things turned out the way you least expect it
My life, is always full of cliches, and this is another one of them
Two months ago, i would be missing in a different way when the time came to go home
But it's all a distant memory now

How do you draw the line, make a decision... when all of it makes you happy? I'm not even asking for a definitive. Why is nothing ever clear cut in life?? Gimme clear cut, not choices! =p
And then life wouldn't be the same yea
sigh

That Dangerous Scent

2007-02-16T00:14:00.000+11:00

Mambo was just awesome!
I've said this before but... "It was the funnest night out i've had since coming back!"
I haven't been happy drunk in such a long time

2 dancing men in shiny short tights, with halo and huge sequinned wings to boot
One was white, the other was ~~gay~~ red
Super not sexy... to me anyways
Admittedly, their wings were pretty cool

Sex On The Beach is delicious
We are going next week, and i'm having a whole tray to myself
And then some :p

A guy proposed on the dancefloor
She accepted
We cheered and congratulated
Then we exchanged looks of wonderment
Proposal? Club? Dancefloor?!
I teared, a tiny bit, it is not often you see one

Dear friends who i flashed the peace sign at, multiple times last night
Please forgive me
I swear i'm not usually like that

I have a phantom bruise (despite the other mysteriously occuring ones)
The hurt is there, but you don't see it
Just like so many other things...

Forbidden fruit
Dangerously decadent
Fatal attraction

Apparently MittensTheCat smells like cinnamon
Huh?

Poor St. Valentine

2007-02-14T22:56:00.000+11:00

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
I say, but i don't practice
I'm not an advocate of it, call me a Valentine's Day grinch if you like
Honestly; yet another commercialised, over rated, overpriced, overly crowded celebration
I was going to say "You don't need one special day to..." but you know the drill already

So if you're single, or even if you aren't...
It's a Wednesday! Mambo night of course!
Stop sulking at home and come on down
Just cos it's Valentine's Day doesn't mean you can't party
Everyday is a party day!

Stop being such a killjoy by giving me shit about wanting to party on Valentine's day, cos i don't give a shit that it is!
=D

2007-02-11T07:56:00.001+11:00

Sometimes

...it's not about how academically qualified you are. Paper is just that, it only takes you so far

...how ambitious you are only counts for so much. Ideas are easy to generate, execution isn't

...when you're at such a low, something amazing happens, which picks you up and puts you back where you rightfully belong

...attitude counts. No, make that always counts

...what is perfect for one thing, may not be for another. It's never one size fits all

...things happen when you least expect it. Another one of life's little ironies...

Sad Smile

2007-02-06T02:51:00.000+11:00

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what's mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've kissed your lips and held your hand.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer and when i wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bare my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.

Whinging About Work

2007-02-06T00:36:00.000+11:00

Because i can

I was contemplating ending work a week earlier, this friday, but i have to stay on, for the sake of my uni's BusinessInternshipProgram that i've decided to take
Which is partly absofckinglutely bollocks if i were to tell you frankly
Like hello, coming up with:

- a chronology of expected experiences, before starting the internship
(err i just do random stuff, when do 7 week internships have structured programs anyway?)

- indicators of success for the business host
[insert amount that amounts to pittance] / hours of work put in = x amount of cheap labour
(the bigger the X the higher the indicator of success perhaps?)

- an analysis of how the host organisation benchmarks it's performance against industry best practices, or alternatively if it is not used, how it can be beneficial
(c'mon its IB forgod'ssake not an accounting firm, if the Boston Consulting Group does not have any resources about IB benchmarking and my colleagues can't elaborate on it, because there is no such thing in IB, how do you expect me to write close to 1000 words on it?)

This is where creativity comes in =)

Uni assignments tests your creativity on how to bullshit, pat things up, repackage and market shite as something structured, credible and substanstial
So ok, learning something after all ^^

To be fair, i get credit points equivalent to one subject and am offered a referee service when i apply for a job in Ozzyland

So nottoobadla
But watudu still wanna whinge

Working till the 16th, then CNY, back to Melb on the 22nd
Goodbye partying in malaysia (since i leave on thursday, my last weekend is the 17th and 18th which is cny...)
Goodbye shopping (some shops in sg wang being chinky and all that prolly wont be open till like the 9th day of cny, which reminds me... zomg goth lolita shop!)
Goodbye fun stuff i wanna do but haven't got around to doing cos of work (Eye on Malaysia which is a complete rip off of the LondonEye but still... ferris wheel ooo! then there's wakeboarding and rock climbing and meeting up with peoples)

And then i've issued my ticket which means no more changing the date
So i can't go back later, even though i don't need to be back early in melb anymore...

Lesigh~
I'm pretty upset about all this really... ='(

I think i should stop being such a frigging workaholic
Internships every.single.summer.break since finishing high school, 4 in total
This is my last year at uni after all
Last year to sleep in, have month long breaks, go for classes 3 days a week (not that i really go anyway =p but seriously, gotta be serious this year!) shop on weekdays, drink and lounge in the lazy afternoons
3 month summer holidays are no more as i graduate in December
Gonna apply for PR if i have enough points, intern in Singapore while waiting for PR application to be approved, or not
Onoes, planning for more work again! Cannot!

/end of pretty pointless, amazingly long rant. wow

Completely addicted to James Morrison's You Give Me Something

Such an easy way to update my blog

Ponderings

2007-02-04T01:53:00.000+11:00

I shouldn't, but i do
Life. It's always about choices, isn't it
My head is torn, but my heart doesnt seem to be
Or it could much rather be the opposite

Help me give myself a chance
But i can't do that again
It hurts me too

How ~~did~~ could i have done what i did

Keeping Up With The Oldies

2007-01-20T19:05:00.000+11:00

I find it amazing that my colleagues, who are on average 5-10 years older than me
Can party and drink... on weekdays
I had two after work drinks with a client and threw up, before even making it to my front door... but luckily not in his car!
So now, the next thing the intern needs to learn, is how to party week nights and show up for work the next day!
Words of Wisdom: Practice makes perfect :)

Since Amanda (Nicole's sister) is going to Monash Clayton, she has decided not to live with us in the city
Nicole and i now have a new housemate, Colin from Singapore, who is a friend of Rudy
He seems like a pretty swell person, from the semi interview conversation the 3 of us had on msn =p
Yay Nicole and i will have a manly man slave to do all the hard work! =p
Carrying groceries, taking out the trash, shifting our furniture... ooo how fun!
The best part is... he *hearts* cats! =D

Pretty Good Start, I Must Say

2007-01-14T00:18:00.000+11:00

Great.
When i have the time to write, and manage to sign in to blogger succesfully, i forget...
What i wanted to say -_-

Work... what else!
Weeknights... currently out of commission, i'm in bed by 11pm thanks, up at the ungodly time of 6.10am fuck. Surviving on an average of 6 hours sleep
Weekends... trying not to stay out till the next morning, but so far unsuccessful =/ which leaves me really tired and irritable the whole of sunday or during work on mondays
This ~~pretty much sums up~~ is my life now kthxbai

Ok, about work... it is absolutely faNtastic!
I won't bore you, going into detail about the kind of work i do
But it is busy, i have a lot of work, and it is a GoodThingTM
I love what i'm doing, definitely because of the amazing bunch of people i work with, who have been such an inspiration
Despite having only worked a grand total of 7 days, the amount i've learnt and grown is huge
The willingness and patience of my colleagues towards imparting their knowledge to me, knows no bounds
I'm so thankful and grateful for all the opportunities i have had so far, I really am
Purpose has never felt so fulfilling
I now know, that this is what i want to do
It puts me in such a good mood thinking of it that i want to lurve the whole wide world, fuzzy feelings and all that heh

My internship last year was great, but i never thought this year's could be so much better
I never thought i'd be saying this but, i look forward to go to work
I don't fall asleep at my desk anymore, despite the long hours, and time. Just seems to magically fly by :)

On the other aspects of my life...
sigh
Ever heard of something called a "Tension of Opposites"
That pretty much sums it up
I don't know what i really want, who can say for sure what they do
But i do know a few things i want
I know, that i highly doubt i will ever feel or experience what i did before
The way you feel about something, sometimes, only happens once in your life, in that one very special moment
Ugh all this emoness [cannot tahan] it's just kinda sad thinking about it =/
But you know, time can't be reversed, some things you cannot change

Good lord what is up with people trying to matchmake me -_-
Seriously
It is not entertaining nor amusing, especially when the people you choose cannot make it
ps: read above
Just introduce some open minded hot chicks to me, can?

Ohya, driving mishaps T_T aplenty
Story for next time

2007

2007-01-03T13:32:00.000+11:00

New year, brand new start to *hopefully* a much better year
Eating can be such a chore when you have to constantly show up for big dinners after lunches after lunches after dinners after dinners
I start work tomorrow, at a merchant bank in the Investment Banking Department, and then only another dinner and luncheon to sit through...
I just hope there won't be as many corporate lunches and functions as i think there will be
Oh wells, at least i'll die with a bigfat tummy, although that does not necessarily equate happiness, prosperity maybe :p
Work ends Feb 16th, ChineseNewYear on the 18th, back to melbourne on the 21st or 22nd to sort out all the crap there and move to a new place, back to uni on the week starting 26th...
Ladida~ the next 2 months of my life have been planned on paper
Let's just wait to see if anything serendipitous happens hmm :)
Toodeloofn~

Lazy Days and Rainy Days

2006-12-24T05:02:00.000+11:00

Being in malaysia now, it feels like old times
The same routine of waking up mid morning or early afternoon, only to laze around, have a bite then go out for endless yamcha sessions in the humid air
Staying at home is boring, going out for drinks seems monotonous, shopping is over rated... food is still good =p clubbing is getting old (or maybe i am... onozomg!)
It's not so much the boredom than the feeling of restlessness and not doing anything productive, if much else
Could it be the laid back atmosphere of malaysian life or is it just me being on holiday with not much else to do
I want to start my internship, but i am gonna miss sleeping in, mid afternoon drinks and weekday shopping mall emptiness
Malaysia just doesn't feel the same anymore, it's not what i remember it to be just a couple of years back
Perhaps it hasn't changed, but maybe I have
Currently reading Hemingway's For Whom The Bell Tolls and Bourdain's The Nasty Bits, which is abit of a let down really...
One week i've been home and already i'm jaded

It's not to say melbourne wasn't without slow times
Somehow, there was always something to do, be it shopping, (retail and food therapy) house chores which can be relaxing... in it's own weird way, playing with the crazy pets, talking cock with Nicole, thinking of what to cook, where to go, running errands, going out with a purpose
All fulfilling in it's own way
And then the lazy nights in watching tv series stolen off the internet, youtubing, layaning ribena, laughing at clumsy Mittens (mum says i should cut her some slack cos she's still a baby aww)
I was never alone
Sean, thanks for making staying in enjoyable and not so blase
I'll miss it and am missing it most
Nicole, thank you for being my housemate, shopping partner, dinner accomplice and sales informer :p
It wouldn't have been the same without the both of you
And to Dean, for making the apartment more lived in, in a good way =)
Thanks for taking care of Mitmit and Princess
To the girlies in Melbourne, for making nights out fabulous~
My eclectic bunch of colleagues, who make working for a company that isn't gonna win the "Employer of The Year" award anytime soon such a riot
Pearly Hue, me lub you long time and deepdeep =D
Clubbing is never the same without you, and 151 :p it goes without saying
Xiang, Audrey (i am not a sotong) and Josh for constantly ferrying us around
To my parents, for sending over the moolah eheh
I feel like i'm making an award acceptance speech -_-

I have been in the land down under for almost a year, and i have yet to see a koala, (the real thing) a kangaroo, nor a wombat...
I was excited to see a possum "What's that?! WOW it's a possummmm!!! a real one"
Living in the city does have its drawbacks

Been A Week Now

2006-12-22T16:26:00.000+11:00

and One more week to go...
Before having to wake up at 6+am just to beat the jam and get to work on time and coming home at almost 7pm... that's 12-13 hours
So much for the supposed 8 hours of work, rest and play =/
Penang was about food and nothing much else mmmm
Funny, i never thought that i'd miss melbourne much, if at all
I miss my babycat MitMit of course, who i've been told is being nootie

Spent the whole afternoon being si lai, rinsing my bikini and delicates, ironing my jackets and business wear, and fielding phone calls from rude people
Having forced to be my mum's mobile picker upper (cos she left it at home) meant having to be tortured the entire afternoon
From the cleaning service lady who refused to listen to what i was trying to say and kept repeating the same thing
To the remisier/securities broker who just hung up without saying goodbye
Irritating! >;[

Having a friend with benefits is pretty sweet
No commitments, no obligations
You don't get hurt as easily as well, since you don't give your all
You're just along for the ride and a good time
Because at the end of the day, guys are the same
They move the mountains, oceans, planets, stars whatever when they're trying to get you
But bubbly and happy turns flat eventually and ultimately sour
Like a bottle of sparkling Ribena mmmm that's been left out for too long

1st Day Burn Out

2006-12-16T16:41:00.000+11:00

Mmm...
I'm eating a lotus pau now while typing, while i'm digesting the sticky yam cake i just ate
It's good to be back!
Besides the abundance of good and cheap food around, yummy breakfast already on the table after waking up at 1 in the arvo just hits the spot =)

I'm too happy that my KiwiDarling remembers me ^^
He is still as huge as ever (7kg) although i at first thought he had grown fatter
But only because i haven't seen him for almost a year and am used to babycatMittens who is only a third his size

Surprisingly enough, i slept throughout my flight home (although not soundly, i envy the reclining chairs in business and first class) shutting out thoughts of a lonely Mittens, crying and meowing for human affection and company
Touch down at 5.30am, out in 45 mins, duty free shopping included. home at 7am
How i love early morning arrivals =)

Disappointing lo mai kai, late morning nap, banana leaf rice
Being surprised at the building size of Malaysia's top investment banking bank, so i guess size doesn't really matter ;)
Teh o ais limau, multiple showers, the rush of getting ready, trying on outfits, discarding them into piles in my very (but now not so since i came back) neat room
Going over to Jo's house and watching her get ready, it feels just like the old days and as if we hadn't met for a week, not a year
Getting lost with the girls in KL, trying to find Melia Hotel, opposite Berjaya Times Square... don't laugh

Jolene and i, not wasting our life while waiting at a red light

Suffering in Malaysia's humidity at SkyBar

Abby

Esther my green friend

Yijin and Miss Ang, a funny looking ZhuoYan in the background

BigFatCigar smoking Joshua

Pearly and HuiShan

I miss youuuu! There's less of you to hug now =(

Malaysia makes us go skinny, surprising

Cabbed it with Pilot Han to Asian Heritage Row, only to sit down at a mamak
And then opening a bottle to get into Maison at 2am to be there for an hour...
Leaving the club only to realise that a friend was in a sticky with her psycho ex bf
Once that was sorted, got caught in the AHR jam and all that sigh
By which time i was half asleep standing up
Getting back with only an hour or so left of darkness to spare

Welcome home Amanda, welcome home

2006-11-26T01:51:00.000+11:00

I have an immense backlog of pictures (i know alot of you wanna steal)
Along with an immense tendency for blogging laziness...
But I'll try :)

Coming back soon, much sooner than it feels
It's one of those things you just know
and I can't wait :)

I love horses and poonies
Meeting a few today after such a long while has reaffirmed my feelings for these amazing creatures, Cowboy, Dixie, Jess and incognito
Corny, yes, but I'm happy, so?
Some day...

I Love My Leggings

2006-11-26T01:31:00.000+11:00

Nicole's sister Amanda is in Melbourne for the week
Being an Amanda as well, shopping is second nature and a first love
So naturally, the 2 Amandas end up shopping-till-we're-droppin' (but not quite enough i must add)

I found out from her that in Malaysia, wearing leggings under dresses/skirts is not quite the thang you wanna do (ie only lala/jeng girls wear)
And then i read it from Jolene's blog as well
*gaspgaspgasp*

Living in Melbourne the past year makes it really hard for me to believe that!
I absolutely *heart* my leggings to death, along with my skinny jeans, orange dress and candy cane striped shoes...
So, fellow Aussie girls, let us all have a night out in Msia with our leggings and dresses/skirts over
Secret plans and clever tricks to convert MunTeng and Jo too! teeheehee

Some pictures to prove a point, leggings under stuff isn't that bad ok! Hey what am I talking about... it's not even bad at all!

Sleepy Monster

2006-10-21T20:37:00.000+10:00

I went to bed early on Monday night, just after midnight while Sean was still busy with WoW
The next day he told me that I was talking in my sleep
I wasn't too bothered cos it's a normal thing for me... (screaming and yelling is normal too ehehe =p I'm weird like that)
But what I said this time was pretty funny (and ridiculous, yes)
"Aunty! Aunty! Aunty! Mun Teng's birthday is on the 1st of October! I missed it!@#!!"
...
Mun Teng's birthday is on the 1st of April
No idea why I said that because I don't remember dreaming anything close

I had a weird dream in the morning, just before waking up
I dreamt that I was together with Suren Super Chocolatey Bear
We were in a relationship (supposedly) but we didn't do anything, we didn't even hang out
It felt very high school like
So I wanted to speak to him, about us, and where we were heading, whether we were really together or what
Thing is, I tried to speak to him, but I never got to, things kept getting in the way
There was abit involving Sean's mum too lol
Rudy (Sean's twin) was in the dream too, speaking to Suren on a swing
Sean wasn't in the dream =p
And that was the dream
There were many random events that happened, keeping us apart, which I don't remember in detail
Perhaps I subconsciously have a fetish for long haired, CS winning gay cowboys... *lick*
Who knows :p

On top of all that
I punched Sean in the arm, really hard, twice
Sorry babe!
I didn't mean it =p
Probably geram at you for something...

Just bought a massive pack of toilet paper, the 32 roll kind
So happy that we have toilet paper! (I was deprived for one day okayy, had to use pocket tissues I keep in the bathroom drawer...)
I'm soo pleased that it's ultra soft and thick (3ply =D)
Can't stand the cheapo kind that looks and feels like the paper I used to write on in primary school, the kind where the lead of your pencil catches on to sometimes and you get holes in the paper if you get over excited erasing... I think it's called newsprint
Oh how I love pampering my bum ^^

Pain Threshold

2006-10-18T20:06:00.000+10:00

I can't decide if a tattoo or a brazilian elicits more pain... T_T
As far as i can remember of tattoos when compared with a brazilian, both are sheer torture
I'll know after redoing my tattoo when i get back to KL

to be continued...

Oh, The Love! The Passion!

2006-10-18T02:52:00.000+10:00

A flash of red is all you need
CL <3

On the lookout for:
Red Bag

to match my red, velvet + paisley peep toe stilletos, of course
oh, and nails :)

Paintball!

2006-10-14T23:36:00.000+10:00

It was a super long and uncomfortable 3+hour drive all the way to Moama (border of Vic and NSW) just to play paintball
But it was worth it =)

We didn't know that Victoria recently lifted the ruling on individual licensing for paintball guns
And anyway, PhaikWah had already bought MOP (Ministry of Paintball) tickets at a discounted price

My paintball trophy =D
Super oucH*! Everytime i got shot (which was only twice cos i'm such a coward and was on the winning team anyway =p) i couldn't do anything but roll around on the ground in pain for a good few minutes... but you didn't need to know that >.<

Ryan, Joshua, KimZen and Lydia

Kevin is Posing

Pictures of the Aussie outback on the drive there:

Can anyone tell me what the fields of yellow are?

The paintball place consisted of numerous playing fields each with its own different setup, objective and obstacles.
We were briefed on safety and rules by one of the staff who would be our team leader

"Keep your mask on at all times out on the field, we don't want any eyeballs dangling out of their sockets from being shot at." Eugh...
The 6 Metre Rule
"When the distance from the other person is 6m or less, shooters are not to take a cheap shot but to say "Surrender or die!" Person being aimed at, if I were you, I'd be smart and say "Surrender!"
/proceeds to pass around a picture of a huge, bleeding red welt. Youch.

1st Field
Target practice, I shot the metal feral cat on the junkyard car ^^

2nd Field
Setup: Tyre field
Objective: To get to the other end of the field, teams start at opposite ends
Our team won! All of us were exhausted, after just one field! =p

3rd Field
Setup: Ruins and trees
Objective: Retrieve the flag from the church building in the centre of the field and get it to the opponents base at the opposite end of the field. Teams starts at opposite ends
Our team won, again! Thanks to Ryan who actually had army training at NS Singapore =)

4th Field
Setup:Junkyard
Objective: One team defends a base in the middle of the field. The other team tries to conquer the base by touching a steel drum in the middle of the base.
No one won because this is such an impossible task! Break for lunch afters

5th Field
Setup: Wild Wild West - 2 rows of "shophouses" Barn at the end on the right, The Blue House opposite
Objective: One team defends a barn at the end of the field. The other team retrieves a flag from the blue house and attempts to get it into the barn.
Our team won, yet again! And then we switched sides and won again!

6th Field
Setup: Saving Private Ryan - Hilly terrain consisting of rows of small valleys and hills, with 2 haystacks on each hill.
Objective: Teams start at opposite ends. The first team to have one member reach the opposite end wins.
Our team wins again! Thanks to Super Faye who ran like the roadrunner all the way to the end. And in the ruins field as well! =D

Paintball was such a riot! I so wanna go again!!
But in winter when it's not burning hot, and please, this time in Victoria!

Happy Belated (very much so! man, i'm such a bad gf!) 21st Birthday SeanDarling Koala Bear!

Celebrating (sort of) at Godskithcen, 7 October 2006

Weng-A-Ling, Ming-A-Ling, Bing-A-Ling

2 monitors la basically :)

My super hardcore gamer bf
sigh

my precious... both of them, fast asleep :)

Birthday wishes from Mittens BabyCat too! =^-^= *meowmeow*

Went for dinner at Shoya on 9th October
Morgan couldn't make it cos he had food poisoning from eating... his own home cooked food -_-
Fail la Morgan!
Moral of story: Microwaving chicken drumsticks for 3 mintues, then 5 minutes then 10 minutes does not work.
Summore only eat after 4 days... heh

Dinner at Malaysian restaurant in Doncaster
The food was pretty good, for Melbourne standards anyway
Prawn Mee, Hokkien Mee, Char Koay Teow, Sotong Kangkung, Kangkung Belacan, Otak-otak
Ta paued Oversea Restaurant Mooncakes! and... my favourite, Green Balls! =D
Super food overload
Onde-onde, fondly known to me as green hairy balls :p
The restaurant is run and owned by a Malaysian family (from Penang i think)
Morgan made friends with the aunty and got some free kuih lol
Super value for money Overseas mooncakes at only $12 a box! With salty egg yolk too of course! =D

Durian gelati at Lygon St after that
None for me not only because i'm not a fan but...
Tummy ache Q_Q
CKT veryvery spicy
Went to Bismi the other day and had spicy mee goreng
Tummy ache too!
How la when i go back to Malaysia?!
I used to be able to eat spicy stuff
This is depressing

Btw, i'm coming back on 15 Dec, arriving in KL at 6am
Not 20th Dec as originally posted

Sean just asked me to watch footie with him
-_-" No way Jose!
Not unless you bribe me with beer! Ha!

Shoes Make Me Dizzeee

2006-10-06T01:04:00.000+10:00

Since I had (or rather, still have) nothing better to do and the current thing on my mind atm is the fact that I'll be flying to KualaLumpur on the 20th of Dec for a holiday, I decided to check out Vincci's current (i don't think so) season online. Nose doesn't have a website and I can't think of any other half decent Malaysian shoe brand. Oh God how I miss DirtCheap shoes. All you people in Malaysia are so lucky... sigh

Just a simple comparison:
Australia
Average price for a pair of average brand shoes = +/-AUD$100 (RM 270)
Malaysia
The average price for mid range shoes in Malaysia = +/-RM 80
Think of the amount of shoes I could have considering the price of a pair of shoes in Aust... 3:1
omg. Multiply ALL the shoe you have by 3... keep in mind that these are just average estimations based on a pretty arbitrary price range but considering that the Aust dollar is worth about 3 times that of the Malaysian Ringgit, I think its a pretty fair assumption

Anyway, the shoes on the online shopping bit is ho-hum-okayYy... but oHgasP when I was viewing the online spring/summer catalogue was I in for a surprise. It's amazing how a catalogue can make you dizzy, not the goodway euphoric kind I'm talking about you know :/

There better be some good shoes when I get back...
WHY oh WHY do they not make super high heels in Malaysia? I'm sick and tired of being short as it is.

I WANT LOTS&LOTS OF SHOES! um and matching handbags, please? :)

2006-09-29T03:33:00.000+10:00

Make me vege souuuuupppp!!!>.<

Discovery

2006-09-23T00:49:00.000+10:00

I have just discovered that i have the "wardrobe capability" to dress like an emo punk/goth kid =p
Black cap sleeved shirt worn over long sleeved stripey top, black pleated skirt with buckle worn over black 3/4 tights

No black converse shoes though =p I wore my cutesy mary jane moccasin =D
Walking home up Market St, i noticed the trees lining Collins Street have grown their leaves back! =D
And it was only a week or so ago that i noticed little sprouting green buds
Spring is officially here!

And i'm on spring break yay!
Wednesday, going to the outback (Mt Gambier) to play paintball!
3 hour scenic(i hope, wanna see a kangaroo(but not as roadkill)) drive to the border of Adelaide
Only because the state of Victoria doesn't allow gun licences for paint ball, them dangerous things...
Manufacturing of fireworks, sex toys and porn are not allowed either
Boys, you have to go to Canberra for that :)
Oh what stuffy law makers we have, boo

Having 2 subject papers (20% and 10% respectively) the week after spring break sucks ass
But then again... i'm on self declared holiday every week anyway

Random stuff:

Nude Women More Dangerous Than Bombs: Bashir (Indonesian Mujahedin Council head)
*clickme*
Like duH, we make men explode ;)

I want a bb gun
My sister didn't get me one from bangkok aww /sad
I might be a crack shot, it runs in the family
Multiple bullseyes and close, during my first attempt at shooting
We'll see on Wednesday

Can i wear my glasses to play paintball?
I'm a tad blind in one eye...

The I-Ball was worth it
Just to see PhaikWah drunk
*hugs babe you know i sayang you*
And Kharlene too :p

If haircuts could be orgasmic
Huge, tight ass, (think the incredible hulk) gay, Colombian hairstylist gives The BestTM

Salty Bunnies & Jager Bombs

2006-09-15T21:48:00.000+10:00

Dinner at (?? I can't remember the name T_T) was good even though the mains were slow
The view would have been better during the day
Still, through the darkness of the night, the white surf reflected whatever little light and was illuminated as waves rolled in
I wondered if the palm trees were cold as they stood tall and naked by the beach...

Pan fried scallops with 2 sticks of glorified french fries, chive creme fraiche and erm, salad? was amAzing, but overpriced =(
Sean had rabbit for dinner... =/ salty rabbit... rabbit saltimbocca
Poor bunny
I had duck confit tortelloni with onions and... peas! =p
Navelyn had blue swimmer crab risotto + ~~broad beans~~ peas! and Bing had barramundi something

We attempted to walk to the Prince of Wales
Which was not that far really
But it was bitingly cold, with the sea breeze *brr* i don't like the cold
So we paid a cab to take us the rest of the 50? -100m. probably 50m=p
A looong night, came home at 7am after chilling out at Bing's apartment, summore got work at noon =/

Bing *heart* NavelynThe Hedonist and The Narcissist

Courtesy of Bing's shaky hands

Bing so very happy! /chants Jagerbomb! Jagerbomb!

Bing oh so happy! Sean layaning

Navelyn like elf here =p

Pink Dolphins Feel Like Sausages

2006-09-14T22:29:00.000+10:00

I've just discovered the best thing since, since... urm... Pink Dolphins?

Crumpets!

Crisp on one side, spongey, dense, succulent everywhere else

oooooo =D~

Ulcer on the tip of my tongue and cheek, scratchy throat and itchy nose
Not good signs =(

I don't think things are going too well this semester
Have been very lazy, hardly any mid semester tests or assignments to help familiarise myself with subject work better
Sigh, i hope i don't fail anything. I wanna graduate the same time as Sean
and move to London? =D
I want.
Again it's the time of year when i start bemoaning my choice of degree
So i have learnt that it really does not matter what you study in uni, just as long as you have that piece of paper
Oh well =/
I could have studied philosophy, anthropology, art history or politics for gods sake
Damn.

I might be doing an Alice In Wonderland/Gwen Stefani 'What You Waiting For?' Harajuku girl themed photoshoot soon
Watch this space

Things to do:
Melbourne Uni International Students Commerce & Engineering Ball
Charles Blackman Alice In Wonderland art exhibition @ NGV Federation Square
Leonardo Da Vinci's Machines - An Exhibition of genius @ Waterfront City Pavillion, Docklands
Melbourne River Cruise?
Stop shopping, i know i've said this before... T_T
I'm broke

Awww babycat sleeping on my lap
Everything in the world is right again ^^

Some Things Don't Change

2006-08-26T01:25:00.000+10:00

An unfortunate event that really tickled me
BwahahA!
A sea of red and black red&blackred&black O_o
AHAhaHAhA!!! omg fashion faux pas lol
okayyy, maybe it's their *gasp* theme! heee
Oh.
snigger!

omg, i'm afraid of red and black now
I'm throwing out my red and black dresses
I'm not wasteful, the lifetime of a dress is approx. 2 1/2 dinners??
:)
I haven't worn my red dress yet! But...
Best to err on the side of caution

HAHAHA!

i'm not crazy

The Most Beautiful

2006-08-18T00:41:00.000+10:00

Opening my eyes in the morning to see
Tiny paws playing with tiny bells on my gold bracelet, ever so gently
Then cooing and snuggling in the crook of my arm
Lazily yawning, falling asleep
A warm fluffy baby cat

And today, I felt like the luckiest girl in the whole, wide world
:)

Only For Now, The Next Few Weeks

BLVD - 29th July '06
Finally finally finally! After so long of always BLVD tak jadi. We finally get to go
How exciting, overcrowded, 15 mins to line up at the bar for one drink
Totally bo-Ring, super cannot make it
The only thing that's nice is it's interior
The decor, really. Other beautiful accessories are the GIRLS. Onz *slurp*
But the thing that put me off the most are, the UGLY GUYS. eugh time to go home

::edit::
one more pic =p

Pearly pearly, finally!

Abby, Faye, Liss, PhaikWah and Pearly! Aiyo!

Pearly, JoshTheCousin who the girls tak layan. Bwahaha!

Let me tell you a story about Freddie Kong.
Ever heard the quotation, "Nor Hell a fury, like a woman scorn'd"
He is a prime example of just that.
See Mr. Kong here was in the same kindy as I, RingRose Kindy, back what, 16-17 years ago?
Of all the kiddos back then, i remember not one name, except Freddie Kong
Why? Why this one name, sticking out like a sore thumb, forever etched into the deepest recesses of my brain?

It was my 3rd/4th birthday party, celebrated at kindy
My god mum made me a cake, just like she does for every birthday of mine.
This year was a zoo themed one with little plastic animals, chocolate biscuit sticks for the fence and green coloured dessicated coconut grass.
Freddie Kong "tried" to blow the unlit candles on the cake, but instead spewed saliva all over it!
I was upset, so so upset. I can't remember if i cried. On my birthday summore!
And that's why i remember his name, for 17 years and till the day i die.

In the club:
Hi i'm Freddie
- Are you Freddie Kong?
Yea... how do you know me?
- Did you go to Ringrose Kindergarden?
Er yea... omg how do you know me do i know you?
- OF COURSE i remember you GrRr!!!

I'm Pregnant & This Is My Baby

2006-07-29T18:21:00.000+10:00

Meet...
Mittens!

The LoveChild of Sean & Monkey

Hi! Mittens the kitten here. As you can see, my life revolves around SLEEP.
The 2 other things i do is to eat and play, in that particular order.
Oh, not forgetting litterbox time too, to do my horrible stinky poos!
(Amanda: eughh)

This is me being bullied when i'm asleep.
Since i sleep like a pig, i can be moved and posed into any position. And i won't wake up.
Posable action figure cat! Yarghh Ninjaarrr kitty!!
ZzzzZzz~
(Amanda: *tickles Mittens* heeheehee eveillaugh)

I'm good at acting cute too.
Me ish a weetle ball of wuvable fluff.
I do come when i'm called, sometimes. =p
But then i can be a nasty terror and attack my mummy and daddy, especially mummy.
I think she's tastier, very sweet!
(Amanda: Oi )

I sleep funny.
And cover my eyes with both paws when it's too bright for my beautiful peacock green and gold kitten eyes

And then it's time to wake up, eat and playplayplay! jump around like a monkey!
Attacking tissue paper and ripping it to bits is my hobby.
Oh, and catching and biting Amanda's jeans and hands with my bitty paws is fun too!
(Amanda: =( go bite Sean can?)

I'm such a little princess, this is me on my furry blanket. Yesh, tis mine all mine!!
Kind Uncle BenBen gave me a huge green furry pillow too! =D
I'm such a lucky baby!
But sometimes, i get confused and lick the furry blankie instead of grooming myself *shy*

*teensypawgrab*
I lurve strawberries!
(Amanda: Little liar, you only want the condensed milk on the strawberries!)

I can't really mew yet. Only tiny ones when MummyMonkey or DaddySean calls me. Mummy is so annoying to call me MitMit sometimes. =/
Most of the time though, like when i'm rubbed behind my elf shaped ears, i coo
I think I may have been a pigeon in my past life O_o

Aunty Nicole got a puppy called Princess.
*Hmpph!* Princess my teensy paw.
Such unbecoming behaviour for someone called Princess to be chewing on my ears
Arghh!!! T_T

All pictures taken using N6280

Weirdos...

2006-07-24T00:40:00.000+10:00

Today is a Sunday
Mum and Josh went to church and to Jagjit's clinic afters for a torture session, for both of them (eg braces tightening for my brother, painful on the wallet for Mum. ouch)
So dad went fishing by himself at the lake near SJMC
Dad bought a fishing rod for Josh but sometimes Josh doesn't want to accompany Dad fishing, the lazy boy
Or rather, he needs to do something more stimulating than sitting, watching and waiting,
After the disgustingly exciting part of watching Dad thread squirming worms onto a curved steel hook is over
My brother is afraid of creepy crawlies, touching them especially, the cowardy cowardly cutlass

So Dad came home with the spoils of the day
A live 8-inch soon hock (marbled goby/ikan bodoh(??) /garoupa family) and 2 palm sized tilapia
All proud and manly, bringing home the bacon for the family =p
Me MAN! me bring home FISHIES!
Just wanted to show off to Josh actually...

Mum: Why did you bring it back, should have just thrown it back into the lake.
Dad: Oh soon hock is a very good fish to eat. Wanted to show Josh and anyway the tilapia is edible too.
No way in hell am i eating Subang Lake fish, so dirty. I'll stick to polluted fish bought from my friendly neighbourhood fishmonger, thankyouverymuch. Got 5.25% discount summore since i'm such a loyal customer! Heee~ *gets all happyhappy thinking of discounts*
Oh don't worry, i'll keep the fish alive in this bucket for a few days. Detox them. ^-^
-_-" NO

Ok so that was a teeny bit exaggerated... :p
Anyway, omg my dad is so weird to go fishing alone
My brother should teman him more

Speaking of my brother, he's so weird too
JoshyBoy: I wonder whether there's lipo for the face...
I'm speaking to him online and he was saying that my cousin bought him a beanie. how sweet! Then complains that he looks weird in it
"You look weird cos you have such a round face! I look cute in beanies! ^^ haha," me says

BWAHAHA! he cracks me up

My Kiwi is so weird too [My ABC (Aussie Born Cat) living in Msia]
Josh tries to show him the fishies but Kiwi gets scared and runs away
Honestly, i think he's afraid of the water more than the fish
Either that or the fish look like monsters to him
He isn't fish phobic i think cos he used to try and catch the guppies in the glass bowl on the coffee table
Spilling water all over the table in the process =/
Nootie Kiwi

Mel calls.
#1 Omg i bought the most gorgeous, green, 40's style dress and red, open toe stilettos 2 days ago!
#2 Omg i bought a pair of black wedge shoes yesterday! hehe i can still wear my cheongsam! (?) no not the long one, the other one. (Huh? you have two?) The short black and red one (Oh. since when.)
#3 Omg i'm still shopping now!!!!! lalala~
Psycho sister.

My whole family is weird =/

Fairy Cleaned Teeth

2006-07-14T22:57:00.000+10:00

Ooo ooo ooo
Someone's got fairy toothpaste! lalala~

Ages 6 and up ^^

With sparkles in it too! =D
That's fairy dust in there okay
Brush your teeth with that and voila! Bad breath begone forever!!
Jolene will so love this! It's such a perfect present! Clear glittery toothpaste! *gasp*
Glitter, Jo, glitter!!!! In toothpaste!!!! =D
I'll bring back a tube for my soon to be dentist babe kie.

I just had a go with my new toothpaste...
How cruelly disappointing ;(
There is no minty freshness whatsoever
It's just... unfoamy sweetish
Bleh
It is a kids toothpaste after all... =/

Kenny vs. Spenny

2006-07-14T02:47:00.000+10:00

The Gorilla and monkey were lounging on the couch, under the sneezle inducing furry blankie, spending quality time rotting whatever that's left of our grey matter in front of the idiot box

An ad on The Comedy Channel came on for the
Kenny vs. Spenny Show
Brief summary of Kenny vs. Spenny if you're too lazy to click on the link
Kenny & Spenny are "Best friends and worst enemies"
Each episode is a competition against each other. Their competitions are ridiculous, immature and totally intense.
eg:
Who can drink more beer?
Who can stay naked longer?
Who has the biggest balls?
Who do old people like more?
Who can kiss more women?
Who can sell more bibles?
...and so on

Utter eediots
It's a fact that they are pathethic example of the male species

The ad featured an episode in which Kenny (or Spenny) told the other to say
"I have a small weewee"

I giggled at the way Kenny (or Spenny, i don't know who) said it
A grown man saying that in a mockery of a little boy's voice
So i said to my Gorilla (Gorilla because his eyebrows i plucked the other day are growing back, haha! and he wants me to pluck it again)

Say "I have a small weewee"
No.
C'mon why nottt???
Because... i cannot lie
-_-

Meh. No fun
:/

Kids and The World Cup

2006-07-11T00:18:00.000+10:00

Chats with my mum on msn are always interesting, gossipy, funny, comforting and heartwarming
She keeps me updated about home and it's going ons
Whether it's about my siblings, father, relatives, current events, a funny story or even career advice

The latest update concerns my 14 year old brother and the world cup
He's a supporter of Les Blues and stayed up to watch the finals
He was originally supposed to stay over at a friend's place to watch it and then go straight to school the next day but my mum wouldn't let him the reason being that it would be too much of an inconvenience
He was in a really foul mood cos France lost and he lost his bet, which is
A grand total of... rm4!! bwahaha! (which my mum paid off for him anyway -_-)
Apparently also because France could get more than one goal (?? i dunoo, i didn't watch the match)
My aunt found it so funny that she's decided to give him rm5!
lol

Kiddos
Honestly, i think he was just upset about france losing more than anything else
The poor boy

Snip Snip

2006-07-10T21:25:00.000+10:00

The boyf asked me to give him a hair cut tmr
wtf
Apparently he's sick of looking like a koala *hee*
That's so dangerous; Amanda, scissors, hair jutting over ears...

So that day Sean-the-not-being-so-nice-hmph said i'm screwed if he moves to london after graduating
Damn eveil kneivel right
;(

We'll see who's screwed tomorrow when i attempt to trim your hair for you! Hah!
Btw, you can't shave your head with a Gillette -_-"
I forsee a trip to the salon tmr =p

One More Week to Uni

2006-07-10T20:34:00.000+10:00

World Cup has come and gone
Yipee! Who cares who won or lost, the important thing is that it is OVER!
4 more years till the next one

June (the person, not the month) has come and gone
Interesting woman that one

So i haven't being doing shit during the holidays
Dissapointing =/
And then again i'm lazy and my supposed travelling money has urm, taken a back seat to other more important, urm, priorities
Mummy if you're reading this, send me monies
T_T pleaseeee

I need shoes (i seem to be repeating myself)
That was random
Actually, not quite, i shall rephrase that
I need proper low heeled (is this how it's spelled?) or no heeled walking shoes
Should i get boots? Winter seems to be ending and i don't really feel the cold, being in the city most of the time
Refrain from buying anymore winter coats please thanks
I want that dress, that shoes (and that would make it 4 pairs of high heels i have not worn) and that winter coat that's kinda too big for me. Sigh
I wish i was fat
Err, i need a car too? (So i can wear high heels as i won't have to walk much anymore) And a driver? I can't drive
I'm sad

I'll put pics of my apartment les horribles up soon
:)

Constipated

2006-06-30T00:54:00.000+10:00

I'm supposed/want to do something
But it doesn't seem to be coming naturally
What happened to my verbal diarrheoa?
Something must be up with my internal workings
Bring on some laxatives, please

Black, So Boring

2006-06-28T20:15:00.000+10:00

Fuck that shit
I'll wear as much black as i want
No more fussing over colours, if it looks good in black and fits, just get it
Who cares if your whole wardrobe is practically black
Black is the new white, pink, gold, brown, whatever.

There is this victorian style ruffled shirt i've been wanting
Had second thoughts about, then returned to find that white in the almost-right size (S is still a little too big, wtf! sigh) was sold out
Went home dejected, emerald green backless dress in the right-right size sold out as well
Bah
Never have second thoughts about something
Buy first, can always return or exchange later on =p
But sometimes, it pays to wait
Victorian shirt 50% off! :D
But in black...
Yeh, hence the ranting

I need to ~~lose~~ put on weight so i can fit into clothes
At first i wanted to be 45 kg, but now that i'm almost there...
I think i need to gain more weight
It's so annoying that i can't find winter coats, pants and shirts that fit me well
S is almost always too big T_T UK size 6 i sometimes can't wear (i hate you Topshop), XS always sells out so quickly, I'm lucky if they do a UK size 4 jean/trouser!
I was reading MeiziHo's post about comments from malaysian guys for having short hair and not being underweight, which btw 45 kg is if you're around 5' 4"
You don't have to be stick thin and have long straight hair to be feminine
Stuff malaysian (men's) beauty ideals
Eateateateat!

Another pointless bimbo shopping post
Au revoir mon petit cheris~
mwah

Another Aeroplane, Has Come and Gone Away

2006-06-26T23:07:00.000+10:00

My mum senses what i'm going through here atm, even though she's in malaysia
She has offered to send me an air ticket to go home
Twice.
And twice i declined.

What's the point of running away from something only to return to it later
Having a taste of pleasure before pain just makes the hurt worse
People take you for granted when you're nice
So, don't be too nice?

::edit::
My happy pau friend Melody Song will be here tomorrow!
So good to see one of the dahlings again =)
Traminer riesling and swiss honey nougat chocolate (albeit a little half eaten) go so well together
I'm a slightly happier girl ^^
Ohh oh, can i open the red wine too? ;p

Football Widow

2006-06-18T01:57:00.000+10:00

Everyone is talking about the world cup, almost... not me hmph
Omg i am talking about it now -_-
The boys (& some girls) are super busy with watching the world cup
Every.single.match. like some people i know
I'm pretty neutral about football
Admittedly i do enjoy some games, although i sometimes do not know what's going on
Like when they kick the ball near the goal line and stop playing cos it's offside or something?
I thought it's only an offside when you score a goal without going through the defence?
So yea...

Thani~ taneeeE~~!

not so angle-y
FATTER you mean
no need to be so tactful
heh

Dreamland Escapades

2006-06-16T21:10:00.000+10:00

I'm back!
From my little holiday to the far off exotic place of Glen Waverley
I can see you all turning green with envy ;p
So i stayed over at Pearly's house the past 2 days to study and
Since her relatives have gone back to malaysia for a month long holiday and is Home Alone

On Thursday morning i had a dream
I dreamt that i was back in high school and Valentine's Day was fast approaching
As per usual, charity clubs like the Interact and Leo clubs were having fund raising projects in conjunction with valentine's day
The typical stuff where they organise for roses and gifts to be exchanged between friends, admirers and their crushes, and sweethearts
Oh, Love Is In The Air~!
Su-Chien was the organising chairperson and would therefore see the order messages received
She informed me that i was going to be sent 5 gifts + messages and allowed me to read them
The odd thing was that there was no sender name and therefore no way of knowing who sent what
However, i could tell that each of the 5 messages were from different people by the prose and writing style of each message

And i knew one of the messages was from Sean
I can't remember the exact words but it was very romantic, something along the lines of wanting to take me to Paris and show me some place that held something "precious"
It was written in a riddle sort of way ala The Da Vinci Code (hmm.?)
After reading the message, i felt scared, of what i'm not sure
It was the kind of fear, not of the supernatural or for your life
But the fear of emotional and psychological things
Things like commitment and sacrifice
I decided to avoid him in school and kept running away and hiding behind pillars and running into empty classrooms when i saw him
He was asking around for my whereabouts as he couldn't find me

So is a dream, a dream and just a dream?
A dream is a dream is a dream?
Not this time
It really happened
Fine, not the school and Valentine's Day bit, nor the Paris bit (sob!) but yes, the rest of it somewhat
In the evening Sean called me but i didn't answer because my phone was MIA upstairs
So he called Nicole, and was speaking to Jean online
Then Jean called me and i didn't answer either
I eventually called Sean back
He really was looking for me
So i returned Jean's call and then Nicole rang me
They relayed the same message that by that time i already knew
So yea, an MIA gf just like in the dream
Sorry babe, i did tell you that i was staying over at Pearly's
I swear i wasn't running away from you like in my dream! :p

Down And Out... Of Luck

2006-06-14T00:35:00.000+10:00

An update on my washing machine... that is still broke
The property manager for my apartment still hasn't called despite me sending him 2 emails last week and calling up the real estate office
And i thought that the service in a country like Australia would be of a certain standard
Yeaa sub-standard i now know =/
Very very disappointed, the water is still in the washing machine tub... festering eughhh!
I daren't look

Ohmeegod!!
I only have a few pairs of clean unnerwear left!!!
Mostly the titchy ones ;p
It is no longer a want but a need to have laundry done soon!
Anyone know of a laundromat in the CBD? i haven't seen any
Or does anyone wanna be kind enough to lend me their washing machine and dryer for abit
Erm, preferably someone with a car =p My laundry is pretty heavy
Ohh what wishful thinking my dear
I don't wanna do my laundry chinese style!
I can cook considerably ok (won't die la), vacuum, wash the dishes (dishwasher =p) and put stuff away neatly but not not not, never for the life of me *gasp* handwash *doublegasp* my clothes!

On a different note, law + me = not.happening.
Oh how i slogged and mugged and slaved away the whole weekend, studying economics
And was all gung ho on Monday morning for the supposed economics paper
Why i say supposed...

Backstory:
I have 2 papers consecutively on Monday and Tuesday
Economics and Law
or so i thought

Arrived at uni all smiles (okay so i lie, bordering on passing out tired, but that's another story, must.not.lose.plot!) and Pearly and i see people carrying law books
Hmm...

Hey isn't it economics today?
Yea, maybe they just brought their books to study
/stops random person
Hey, is it by any twisted chance that it's the law paper today??
*looks at me like i'm such a dumbass* Yea.. it is

ArgghhH!!!
*looks at each other*
/cue Pearly and i to freak out
haven'tfinishedstudying.omgnobook.howhow?!diela.gonnafail.
ohshitpaid3kforlaw.canapplyspecialconsideration?
omgnocannot,finalswei!
double ArgghhH!!ArgghhH!!! oh noes >.<
ok chill
breathe in breathe out
hey how long does it take to get back to your house?
erm, 10 minutes?
But the exam starts now! >.<
Oh waitaminute... i have my law text and lecture notes in your car! =D

So ok, drama over
We didn't really kelong this time =p
But veryvery close to it
I could literally feel the cold wind of Death's breath, blowing softly onto the nape of my neck
Either that or it was just and early morning breeze~ =p

You might think this is just one unique occurence, but no, tis not
Pearly and i mistook the date of the mid sem law exam, it was actually 2 weeks later -_-
And 2 weeks later, she didn't bring her student id and couldn't remember her id number to be filled in on the answer sheet
As for me
Champion of all champions
I was still asleep, 5 minutes before the exam started
Pearly called me asking where i was
I thought it was an hour later... -__-"
sigh
Had to go through the hassle of faking sick, going to the doctor and acting up, paying money, getting an mc, emailing lecturer
And resitting for the test later in the week
Doh!
The one thing good that came out of it, 2 failed attempts equals studying 4 chapters 3 times equals, a very good score :)

Bzzzz Aaah AAAH!!!

2006-06-07T21:28:00.000+10:00

Bzzzz Aaah AAAH! is the sound of someone getting inked
Err, that wasn't me... ;p
Probably what my sister will sound like next Saturday =p
She's getting inked! Finally!!!
By Eddie of Borneo Ink, an early 24th birthday present to herself as her birthday is on the 24th of June
I'm soo excited for her to be finally knowing what the pain of getting a tattoo is like! =p
hehe
Such a pretty design she's getting too!

Celtic Winged Cats by Stephanie Pui-Mun Law

So yesterday was 06/06/06
Beeeg deal *yawn*
Oh except Nicole dropped her phone causing it to stuff up afters
Then the washing machine broke down halfway while she was doing her laundry
And she had to handwash the whole soaking wet load of clothes!
Carrying on to today when she locked herself out of the apartment when she went for lunch
=( Poor thing.
Me, i'm still alive
!
But oh crap
Liss complained that she put on 5kg
I weighed myself at Peini's house yesterday and i've put on weight too, around 3-5 kg
Hmm, my jeans don't feel any snugger, neither do my bras...
It's all gone to my face and tummy! >.<
Sigh, this is so depressing, doesn't help that Sean keeps calling me something along the lines of Chubby Monkey and Chunky Monkey... No more Cheeky Monkey or Baby Monkey, Skinny Monkey even ;(

Nicole's friend June is coming on the 13th of June
Heard some kinky stories about her
I hope she's haWt ;p

My 14 year old brother's MSN nicked cracked me up just now
"Why is it that most guys AND girls are hairier than me?"
I hope he and his friends weren't comparing underarm hair or something >.<
You never know what kids these days get up to...

Eediots I Tell You, Idiots! (btw, i like the word idiot)

2006-06-06T01:04:00.000+10:00

*yawn*
Trodded off lazily to the bathroom to brush my teeth
Turned on the tap, wet the toothbrush and applied toothpaste as per normal
Puts toothbrush into mouth
Looks at self in mirror...

OH FUCK!!!
OMG!OMG!
This IS NOT my toothbrush!~#$!@!!!
It's Nicole's!!! She must have replaced her turquoise one today!!!!
Argh!

I Must Not, Can Not assume that pink things belong to ME!

I like quiet
I like quiet time
I cannot stand living in my apartment!
It's freeking noisy ONLY at the times i'm trying to sleep
Coincidence or what, or someone up there is trying to test my patience
When i say someone up there i don't mean God ok
The bloody upstairs neighbour grrR

Went out to have a smoke at the french windows and was talking to Dean and Nicole
And the crazy bitch from upstairs yelled "SHUT UP!!" and proceeded to slam her door
Ok fine, to be fair we were talking pretty loudly
But hellO!!!
Who's the one having noisy parties at 3am and talking damn bloody loudly at the french doors of her unit at 9am on a SUNDAY morning
Goddamnit!
And then Dean goes to the window and meows really loudly
wth! O_o

I need to move out of my apartment when the lease has ended
Don't care if it's damn bloody mafan to move the furniture and have to fork out money for movers
At first i was pleased with the 10 foot high ceilings, full length glass french doors and big glass windows
But i now realised it causes alot of echo
Not only when I make noise in the apartment *bouncebouncE*
But when other people make noise in theirs too
And then there's the placement of my unit which really sucks
The living room windows and french doors face other units, so i not only have no view, other than the people in the opposite unit one floor up fighting with badminton rackets,
But that's not the point...
Noise bounces off the apartment units as it's all in a square with a small central courtyard!!!
And then there's the industrial sounds going on in the basement sometimes which i can hear, as the ground floor of the centre courtyard is the basement, i think ?
Must be clearing the waste containment units...
Sigh
And then all these Aussie property
Why la cannot have solid walls instead of plaster?!?
No money isit now!!
Developed country konon
Malaysia 3rd world country ony but got solid walls for all rooms wan ok!!!

Noisenoisenoise
Makes Mankee damn Cranky ;(

Speaking of moving...
Sean is moving in after July as Ben is going back to Malaysia
So yay!
I get to terrorise him more often
YargHhGh!!! *bitEbite snorgles tummy*
But then as it is my wardrobe is miniscule enough and he has like a thousand million jackets
Howhow!?
And then got Xbox360, booksbooksbooks, PC with speakers subwoofer all...
Boys and their Toys
tsktsk
Okla, time to stop new additions into my wardrobe

I need a new, bigger apartment =D
My room is too small

Eee why does my cotton pyjama trouser material feel bumpyish, furry rough against my legs O_o
Like hairy legs on my smooth tofu ones kinda feeling...
Like Sean's legs feeling ony...
=p
Weird...
sigh
I think it's because my legs have been pampered, wearing silky pyjama trousers the past couple of days
Yes. i do not change my pyjama trousers daily :)

Late Night Procrastination

2006-06-02T02:29:00.000+10:00

HELP!
I desperately need a short, cropped, non-flimsy, capped sleeve jacket in black
Don't try to be a smart ass and tell me that cropped is already short
There are different lengths for cropped jackets okay!
Something that looks similar to this
But not so, urm, gay looking =p
i.e. ruffles and scarf bit
And none of that cardi, t-shirt type material tie in front... stuff
yech

Reason why i need one is cos i bought this polka-dot dress which is not only mid thigh but has singlet type straps as well, which when having both styles on a one piece outfit makes me look
~~Extremely Skinny~~ like a
Malnourished Somalian Monkey
So please girlies, help me out of my little predicament here
Let me know if you see one
and fingers crossed it fits my shoulders and torso
Will be veryvery grateful! ^^

As usual, the exam period is near and here again, almost everyone is pretty much stressing out (so guess who's the one that isn't ;p)
Missing Melbourne girlies, who all seem to have disappeared
I went shopping last week after the much too long drought caused by relentless and consecutive assignment due dates, 3 weeks!
Reason being = "Oh noesss, so cold, I need warm clothes!" =(((
But as usual lost the plot... =/ if you get what i mean

Been buying lotsa rabbit recently
No, i don't mean those cute little ones hopping around and pooing everywhere
Angora gloves and a rabbit fur bag
Ooo, so softtttt
/gets bashed in the head by PETA people
Hey don't look at me like that laaa
Rabbits are bred for their meat okay, and fur is just a by product of the bunny meat industry =)

Eughh Crabstick Flavour!

2006-05-21T13:06:00.000+10:00

This a veryvery long overdue post, events took place about a month ago
But i forgot about the pictures!
Sean took Nicole, Dean, Jensen and I out for dinner at Lygon Street
As usual, Sean had sea cockroaches *eeee*
*cough* Morton Bay Bugs
:)
I didn't know what to have so i ordered some avocado seafood thing
That came out tasting like crabstick and fishcake -_-
What a dissapointment *boo*
I know now that i don't like kwailo anchovies!

Nicole and Dean

Nicole and her cousin, Jensen
Who stayed for a month

And then off to Manchester Lane for
Their Big Band jazz night! =D
We need to go there again!!! As different jazz genres are played everynight by different bands
Blues, Swing, and i can't remember what else
But it's all good!
The seating is so smart! Stadium style levels of small tables, chairs and ottomans
The stage set at the bottom with the dancefloor in front
Plus the crowd is super layan!

Nicole, Liss and I

Seannnnn
!

2006-05-21T00:14:00.001+10:00

I'm turning into an icicle!
It's getting fecking cold in Melbourne and expected to get colder still as the days go by
I don't usually turn on my heater but had to as i was shivering in my chair *BrrR!*
Checked Weatherzone and it's a freezing 8 degrees!!!
At least the worst part of winter is during the holidays
Say yay to sleeping in! Ya-Ay!!

Went on a dinner date with Abby tonight at a japanese restaurant in QV
I somehow cannot remember the name of jap restaurants... except Zen, of course
Abit fail right if Zen aso can't remember...
Haven't had a good girlie chat with her in ages so it was fantastic to catch up!
As usual, we emo-ed about men and relationships, life, reminicised about the past and the filling in of details of our life, past and present
:)

The jap restaurant we were at has the best Takoyaki i've had so far evarR!! =D
Generous with bonito flakes, and the number of takoyaki pieces
A$6 for about 8 balls is such a bargain!
It had lots of octopus pieces inside as well
I guess for most Takoyaki lovers, that is a Good Thing
Personally, i don't like octopus as i find it rather rubbery like and chewy in texture, cooked or raw
But takoyaki, after all is grilled/fried/baked octopus (Wikipedia)
I much prefer shrimp/cheese/chicken yaki ball things

Damn, what's up with all this referencing!
I've been doing too many assignments!

Duh!

2006-05-20T14:04:00.000+10:00

Disclaimer: These findings are from observations per se. Not necessarily true 100% of the time.

A common gripe coming from the opposite sex i usually hear is something along the lines of
"My ex-gf is such a bitch, she cheated on me or she broke up with me for another guy!"
Some guys insist that the main cause of break ups is the presence of a third party, and third party to them usually mean, The Other Guy

Bfs usually aren't comfortable with their significant others out clubbing wihtout them or meeting new guys
Why? The fear of their gfs ditching them for someone else
# Guys are touchy about their belongings, and yes, as a gf you are regarded as HIS property
IMO it's also this male complex about being the alpha male/top dog etc and therefore would be devastated if you found someone else you regarded as better than them
"But darling, I love you so much, I don't want another guy, besides, they know I have a bf because i tell them"
The reply:
Guys are assholes (Guys, you said it!) They're not going to care that you have a bf if they want you badly enough

Being a girl, it's understandable why this break up situation is common
It's not cos girls are skanks (guys cheat too!)
If she's happy being with you in the first place, she wouldn't even consider another guy

Consider this scenario:
Guy A is with Girl B
And then there's Guy C...

Boy and Girl have been together for quite some time
When A was courting B, he would do lots of nice thoughtful things for her/with her
(I don't mean expensive gifts!)
So continued in the early parts of the relationship after they got together
Guy A starts neglecting gf
All that was said and done before seems like such a lie now
Girl is hurt (obviously! are you a dumb guy or what? =p)

lalala~
Along come Guy C
Who treats her like a princess, is thoughtful, talks to her, listens and all that la
She feels special again ^-^
But then she feels guilty, she still loves A
Supposed to anyway...

Sounds common doesn't it?

So guys...
You don't have to cheat on a girl, be violent or (any other extreme) for your relationship to end
It can end for the simplest of matters
And if it does, serve you right!
Stop complaining, and if you really want to keep your relationship, do something to save it
It doesn't take that much effort if you say you still love her
All you need to do is treat your gf better!
A simple thoughtful gesture every now and again is all she needs to know that you care.

"Nice to know you care, but even better to see that you care"

Girls if you agree say WhooHoO~
Guys if you don't... Just shut up la
=p

Boys are SO clueless sometimes
Sigh*

Gentleman's Club

2006-05-14T02:09:00.000+10:00

I just got home from my first ever outing to a strip club with Nicole, Dean and JenSen
Spearmint Rhino *click*
The girls were haWt!
But some look like monkeys climbing up the pole!
Heh =p
We were sitting at a table facing the podium seats where the guy who sat in front of us kept tipping the strippers
So we got a pretty good view of the action!
It was fun at first but after awhile it got a little boring watching the same moves, albeit by different girls
Nonetheless, an interesting experience
Watch and learn baby, watch and learn ;)

I Think I'm Still Abit Feng Tau... O_o

2006-05-13T14:22:00.000+10:00

So off to Platform One~
Didn't wanna go at first as i had already planned to go to Blvd the next day for Marcus' birthday, but because of dear Miss Pearl...
(give face abit golaaa)
=p
It would be our last night clubbing since exams are approaching
(so ok i'll golaaa)
!
It was early and i was bored...

Why is my hair still so short?!?
Despite not having cut it since i got here
I blame the cold!
Is having long. ravishing. Rapunzel like hair too much to ask for?!!?
Ohhh, let down your hair~
=p Heh.

So okok, enough about me.
Platform One is a vault refurbished into a club which gives it a distinctive look
Curved ceilings, tunnel like rooms and arched stone doorways
One would expect it to be claustrophobia inducing, but it's surprisingly not
The worn blood red paint, murals scattered around the walls, rough red brick walls and middle eastern decor adds a further air of mystery to it
Partying in Platform One feels like you're part of an illicit underground party, save for the drugs and hard trance music cos they play... RnB *groan, not AnotheR rnb club you say*
But wait...
Platform One has not one but two rooms, each playing different music!
The main one of course being rnb
And the smaller one (with a barchick serving in not much but super skanky hothot hotpants, leaving not much to the imagination) playing...
House music!!! =D *woot*
How i miss zouk T_T

Bad photos, bad shaky hands photographer =(

So now for the barrage of pictures...

Miss Pearl and Miss... Scarlet
In the bedroom with a candlestick...
;p

The two Misses with Xiang
Xiang reminds me so much of someone i know, or perhaps now, once knew...

[clockwise] with the Taiwanese other Amanda, Pearly's cousin Joshua, the ABC Andrew, and Audrey, who has such big eyes! And i love the "i slept over with my make up on and just woke up" look! Very sultry sexy!

pic of The Girls
but
None of The Boys

With the Hue's

And now for the incriminating pics ;p

Skanking it slow with Audrey
and Pearly

A more decent shot :)

Ooo Pearly and Xiang!
Where are your hands going?!?

Joshua and Xiang's turn to get skanking... O_O

And then Josh starts to get a little shy
Aww

I met a girl, Tiffany
We made friends cos she liked my top =p
Tiffany reminds me a little of Meizi Ho!

We took a picture with Tiffany and her bf (can't remember his name now!)
And i lost the plot...

So here is a better one ^^

We kept losing the plot
Come to think of it, we lose the plot all the time anyway =p
We were trying to go get drinks at the bar, but kept dancing in front of the bar
Drinking woman! No more dancing!
Met Alvin Alverdian too, but forgot to take a pic with him. i bump into him every single time i've gone clubbing here!
There was a photographer taking pics of the event, who was totally oblivious (how can right?!? =p) to Pearly and I and didn't take pics of us until Joshua made friends with him
heh

You know you have damn good make-up skills when...
You pass out and upon waking up 5 hours later, your make-up and eyeliner is still perfect *grinn*

Either that, or you've been drinking too much and you're super passed out till you don't move in your sleep =p

My Super Secret Hiding Place

2006-05-10T09:46:00.000+10:00

I was putting away some paper bags, neatly folding and placing them into a bigger one inside my wardrobe

As i was reaching to tuck the bag in, i accidentally stepped onto the wardrobe carpet, here:

Then overwhelming feeling of realisation came over me...

I FIT INTO MY WARDROBE!!! =D

*squeals with excitement!*

I step in and close the sliding wardrobe door
Hey, it's kinda cosy in here!

Okay, so i expected something Narnia like to happen and was a little disappointed that nothing extraordinary happened =(
Save for the fact that when i crouched down and tried to get up again, my bum got stuck between the door and my shoe rack... -_-"

But wheeeee, so fun! I can play hide and seek with SeanKoala now!!!
I was so excited that i ran to tell Sean on msn, but he kept giving me the -.- face
Hmph, so tak layan ;(
So i went and told my mummy since she was online too
She so layan! =D

mum i can fit in my wardrobe!
see my picture, im hiding inside!

what u doing inside yr wardrobe?

then i tried to crouch down and my bum got stuck in between the shoe rack and cupboard
haha i just found out i fit inside, was keeping some paper bags, and stepped in, realised there's space

hah if suddenly u get stuck inside there n door slams shut on u, habis

nola, mine is sliding door

why u still 12 yrs old, playing hide n seek
yr pic so dark, la, how u take pic

just took without flash

that shows how scrawny u are

haha but my bum got stuck

thin but big bum
so u hv to squeeze yr bum tight to get out!!!
amusing yrself huh

haha yeap
almost fell over, lucky didnt break my shoe rack

hahahahaha
lucky didnt break yr bum
can u imagine if u had to go see a doc n he asked what happened, n u said u were fitting yrself in cupboard

Heehee! =p

Falling Asleep In A Cold, Cold Bed Is Hard To Do

2006-05-09T03:01:00.000+10:00

Even though i hate crowds and cramped spaces
I like it when we watch tv on the sofa and there's hardly any space if any at all to move
I like it when we're falling asleep in your bed, and i can't roll around like a monkey in my sleep like i usually do

Because
I can feel your heart beating
Draw in that comforting scent of yours
Hear you breathing (or sometimes snoring =p)
And be kept comfortably warm

And it makes me feel all mellow, contented and so alive
And sleepy...
Like a lazy kitten *mew~

It's been less than a week, and i'm already having withdrawal symptoms
sigh =[

Oh Woe

2006-05-08T21:12:00.000+10:00

An obvious reason for my lack of posts is because i'm busy
Busy with assignments. urgh, what else
So busy that i don't even have time to see my snuggableSeanKoala or even read Stardust
le sigh. =(
So many pictures to put up, stories to weave and tell, people to fuck... =p heh
Not in a literal sense anyway. Boo

I haven't been going to uni on mondays for the past 3 weeks
I feel awful for leaving Peini in uni alone to fend of the pervert and the cold all by herself
(i owe you one miss, lots in actual fact)
My sleeping time is screwed up beyond normal that it's just plain... off (for lack of a better word)

Anyhoo, some observations
Goth chicks (not the punk type) have this attractive aura about them that makes me want to sensually stroke their jet black locks, right where it falls onto the collarbone...
Such a turn on *gasp*
Alabaster skin and rose red lips, i want
I hate crowds, confirm
People who don't play their part when i do mine&more reallyreallyReallY pisses me off
Attitude man, haven't you heard of that?apparently not, jeez
My pine desk is amber coloured, my bed frame is not... :/

Now, back to my assignment which is due in 2 hours... *tears hair out*

Welcome To My Parlour, Said The Spider To The Fly

2006-05-05T00:50:00.000+10:00

Spent from lovemaking
Tingling, lingering sensations
Sipping la fee verte parisienne from a cut crystal flute
uncut alabaster powder on a silver platter
In nothing but sheer silk stockings and a lacey garter
A lazy, contented kitten in a Satine kimono on Velveteen sheets
A fine veil of sweet smelling smoke upon the ceiling

No pics of the food
Everyone was too busy eating =p

Stupid neighbours telling us to shut up at 10.30pm
Wtf
We weren't making that much noise
Indian man called to compain and i said thank you
Wtf
I wasn't drunk!

And then some idiot trying to get back at us for being noisy rang the intercom at 9am the next day thinking we'd all be asleep
Yea some of us heard it but couldn't be fucked
Haha
So much for trying to wake us up

Apparently there's a no noise after 10.30pm ruling, but we didn't know
We were sent letters from our real estate agency a week later =p

Today

2006-04-27T19:22:00.000+10:00

Today i saw a girl
She was chubby and a little short
She had dark dreadlocks, semblance of highlights now turned dirty red
Dr. Marten boots, grungey hoodie, torn top
She turned around...
Today, i saw the most startling blue eyes
Ever.

I stood next to a guy today
His hand holding the right side of the bar
Mine on the left

He had the most annoying music on
Audible from his earplugs
He must be a little deaf
I felt like punching him

Then i noticed the size of his fist in comparison with mine
And then i thought about the size of my head in comparison with his fist...

Koala Boo smells like my baby piwwow
Stinkyyyeee
Haha!
But oh so comforting snuggly to meee~ ^-^

Whittlesea, St Kilda, Melb Museum, Aquarium, Gaol, Royal Botanic Gardens
Aarghh
This always happens during the holidays
Another unproductive week gone by
So what have i done?

Monday:
Supposed to go to the Royal Botanic Gardens since Melody was around
But we were all lazy after the late night
And i forgot to grill the chicken breast for sandwiches being busy with steamboat stuff the day before
I did make a big breakfast of french toast, bacon and sausages though...

Went to Chinatown for yamcha with Sean, Melody, Nicole and Abby
Then off to the Asian Supermarket where Melody bumped into a bucnh of acquaintances
And she and i ended up carrying a big box of instant noodles home O_o

Thursday:
Supposed to go to the museum but everyone ended up having stuff to do
Just as well cos i'm not feeling well ;(
Went to Vic Market with Nic to check out the non food section
Totally like a pasar malam -_-
Nicole made beef stew! Yummy~

Friday:
I wanna go to the museum tmr!!
I'm making tandoori chicken for dinner
I so hope it turns out...

Bought Gouda cheese and duck liver pate with orange cognac sauce
I absolutely hate soft cheese like Brie, Camembert and mouldy stuff like Roquefort

What's up with wearing purple/pink hues that night
I *heart* my MinnieMouse top! ^^

Yay! i'm already on break!
Passed up an assignment on Monday and did a test online on Wednesday morning
Last minute as usual...
Got back a previous assignment
I'm so pissed that i screwed up one of the questions and only got 30% of the allocated mark for that
Gargh
I would have gotten almost full marks for the assignment if not for that question
But then again, isn't this usually the case
It's always that one little thing that holds you back from attaining perfection

I wanna do touristy stuff like visiting art galleries, museum's and historical buildings in the city during easter break but i have no camera =(( bah
Hope that the trail riding and beach plan works out...
