My Circle

What's new?!

2008-08-25T17:42:00.002+10:00

What are some of the major happenings in the past year?

Namely:

I'm the proud owner of my 1st ever pet dog - Sushi. She is just too adorable to resist. Well of coz, undeniably annoying at times. Still, she is the lover man! She's a chihuahua x maltese, 1 year old now. Gosh! Can't believe that I finally got myself a puppy. Thanks to my mum for insisting!

Job changed. Finally, a new jump start in my career cycle. A new challenge, new set of difficulties awaiting, however, I am still looking forward to it!

Oh well, I guess Facebook is something new as well. At least it was not a 'hit' thing when I stopped blogging dated here. Man! All this social networking sites are growing fast and leaving fast. What's up next?!!!

Oh My God!!!

2008-08-25T16:03:00.002+10:00

Oh My God!!! That's the only phrase I can shout out while typing these words here.

How long have I stopped blogging here? What made me stopped ya?!! I started this blog when I was still studying happily in Melbourne. Adding a new post to this circle was once my favorite past time. A must do thingy!!! It was also a tool for friends outside Melbourne to catch hold of me. It does feels funny when I look back at the post I wrote. Memories just came pouring down my head.

Well, blogging is such the 'in' thing now. Guess what, I was 'in' enough to start it 2-3 years back. Please excuse me if I have abandoned/neglected this blog for such a long time!!! I hope to gather my thought back and post something here on a regular basis.

Time to notify my buddies about the reopen of 'My Circle'. Adios! I"ll be back soon for another post. Mark my words! Hohoho... :)

Serendipity

2007-04-13T19:35:00.000+10:00

Serendipity. One of my favorite words.

A fortunate accident. How often do one come across a fortunate accident? In terms of fate? A relationship? Or your life?

Was clearing my dvd collections and found this movie - Serendipity. Nearly forgotten that it's one of my favorite movies. It was years back since I first watch it, love it at first watch, but didn't really feel the emotions in it. Decided to watch it again. This time, I feel it. Not a movie with huge climax or so, but sometimes it's the simplicity and relation of the story that adds credit to it.

How many lucky discoveries have I come across? Have I ever appreciate them? Or did I just let another opportunity slip through my fingers? It's so true that sometimes one just indulge in their own world, without realising how many fortunate accidents they have let go of. Ask me now, I can tell you in a click.

Fate. I rely on this word very much. To the extreme side, I'm willing to just gaze through the crystal ball to determine my future. In other words, I might lose my own thoughts at times. The word is so strong, so true, till I doubt whether I'm making the right decision at times.

Don't worry. I'm in all good condition now. Just thought I should record a post here to remind myself of my current feelings on this partucular day.

However, I'm facing different blues now. Doing my best to overcome them. Who knows, a lucky discovery might be awaiting me.

Yokoso! Japan

2007-03-10T10:51:00.000+11:00

I enjoyed it when I know everytime I returned from a foreign country, I'll have this new sets of realisation and discoveries which I find useful to shape me into a better person.

I thought I should blog about my trip while it's still fresh and wakey in my mind. Landed yesterday, cleared my stuff, admiring them, reminiscing the Nihon culture. My previous trip to Japan was five years ago, that time I did not pay attention to any other htings in Japan except for Gameboys and MD Walkman. I don't even talk about fashion and clothings five years ago. But five years later, I finally extended my sights. There are three main things I need to specifically mention about my experiences in Japan. So, please bear wih me for the next couple of minutes.

1. The people
No doubt, Japan gathers the trendiest, funkiest, coolest, ...etc etc... Basically almost every adjective can be use to describe the people walking on Tokyo streets. All of them look so beautiful, the guys, the girls, everyone has its own character. You'll never find a repetition of clothing in 20 people you've walked pass. From top to toe, it's all accessorized. The streets are full packed with people. Lucky it was winter (so damn cold), if it's summer, I think the 'summer scent' will kill me.

2. The manners
I have to give a high distinction for their manners. Maybe a A+++ instead. I know that they are well-mannered. But I've never thought they could go to such extreme, so well-mannered until I felt scared by them. An accidental eye contact with a stranger would trigger them to greet you and bow to you. Not a common bow, but a full 90 degrees, half circle bow!!! =.=" Buy the slightest thing from a shop, the shopkeeper would send you out the door, arigato to you, their signature bow of course, and it will continue until they are sure that you're out of their sight. Orelse, they'll just freeze in the position.

3. Tokyo itself
Everywhere is shopping. They really fully utilised each and every inch of their land. So much things to see till mum and I were lost in streets. The locals actually que up half an hour earlier, waiting for shops to open. I hardly see any non-locals in Tokyo. People are buying something every minute. Most of their spenders are locals. I think the number of people I see carrying Gucci and LV bags are enough to suffocate me =.=" I guess it's their way of pampering themself after a long day at work.

4. The food
For the past week, I think I've consumed less than a teaspoon of oil. Ate a lot of seaweed products, and drank mostly greentea. I feel healthy! Sushi? You must be kidding! On average, I eat 10 pieces everyday. So fresh, cheap, different, and most important, I love it! And I love their breakfast @ hotel. Eating almost the same thing everyday, but still, I was never sick of it.

The Japanese are in such a fast pace. The advancement of the country led their people into a non-stop routine. They stand while eating, takes them less than 5 minutes to finish their meal, and walk out. Mum was saying she is already a fast-eater, but the Japanese are even faster. Waste no time!

Asked me whether I enjoy shopping in Japan or Hong Kong? I would say Hong Kong. Reason being: In Hong Kong, I can buy things easier, as in the price of it. At least of the five things I see in Hong Kong, I might have the cash to buy all five of it. But in Japan, I might not even buy one. That's how expensive it is. Did not buy much actually, as I need to choose carefully, choose the best. Heck! Everything is so nice. Before picking up something, I need to first take out my calculator. It was my best friend throughout the trip! Mum bought a bag, worth RM3000, it's not LV, Gucci, Hermes or any other brand. It's just a brand in Japan, gosh! I cannot understand her. But same goes to her, she wouldn't be able to understand why we would buy a plaine tee shirt for RM 200... =,=

I think I'm obssessed with their cosmetics. They are much cheaper compare to the ones I bought in HK and Singapore. Same brand of coz. Almost wanted to buy the whole shelf off. Japan made cosmetics are always cheaper. Was overjoyed to see DHC selling so cheap there. They have so many brands till I can't even differentiate which one I just saw.

I'm looking forward to visit Japan again with friends instead. I think it would be very fun! Oh ya, one of the hotel receptionists in Japan stole my heart. Hohoho..she is so so so nice and adorable!

Ps: Can't be blogging every places I went. Will do it by photos instead, will try to use the best descriptions.

Yokoso! Japan

What a world!

2007-03-01T00:11:00.000+11:00

Ooooohhh~~~

First day of work was a torture to me. I was so not in the mood of working, and felt extremely down when I started work on Sunday night. But somehow, I managed to get over it and things are back to normal now. Maybe because I'm counting down to my Japan trip in two days time!!! Yay!!! I'm so excited about it, my mind is full of the manga scenes, harajuku girls, takashimaya, and most important, the Ghibli Musuem!!! Cash is the most important factor when you're in Japan!!!

Guess what, I bumped into my high school lover yesterday! Hahahahhaha... I was just talking about him with friends last week and was wondering, since we parted, we have never bump into each other before. How long was that? Mmm, almost seven years. I saw him in a complex, can't believe my eyes when I saw him. I didn't identify myself though. I was in this knitting shop and saw him walked pass a few times. Ok la, have to admit that my heart was beating quite fast when I saw him. Unexpected ok. It's just the feeling of meeting an old friend (Yah right!). And didn't walk up to him because I was a bit slumber yesterday, as in my look and all. HHAHAHAHAHA... So lame! But like some typical girls, you want to look purrfect in front of your ex-lover right?!!! HAHHAHAHAHA... Heard from my friend that he's now the father of a 2 year old girl. Hahahhaha...time flies yah...

Still remember him as a sweet-talker. You know ler, high school lover, it's all about having this familiar crush which you and I had. I think I was attracted to him mainly because he was good in sports. He was one of the top athletes in school. Hahahahhaha...can't help it! Well, I guess if I ever bump into him again, I'll laugh and call him, "Hi dadie!!!" ;p

It's time for me to make decision again. Career decision. Prediction says I need to grab on to opportunity and appreciate every single moment to show management my abilities. Hmmm...I wonder...

The Holiday

2007-02-23T15:20:00.000+11:00

My holiday is drawing to an end soon. Two more days and I'll be back to my working position. I wonder, why does holidays always end fast. It was as though I just started my holiday. Last week, I was full of anticipation. Coz I know this new year I have heaps of activities, waiting for me to complete. And now, it's all done!

Kickstarted the holiday with some catching up session. Treated Tiff to Mandarin Oriental's Wasabi as her birthday dinner. Wasabi is still my no. 1 favorite japanese restaurant. Glad that she like it. Comes to think of it, I'm happy coz it's my first time treating her with my own salary. It somehow feels good. Of coz, Irene was there for the dinner as well. I think we were a little too noisy that night.

New year was not as festive to me this year. Streets are quiet, less traffic for sure. But the atmosphere was quite different. At least for me it looks a bit quiet. New year is the season of visiting and catching up. Almost every night of my dinner was spent with my grandparents and relatives. Somehow it's a custom/tradition to have dinner with family members. Aunties and uncles would start saying: 'Wow, you looked different now. Compared to 10 years ago...(Isn't that a norm?!!)', 'Getting prettier ya','Where's your boyfriend? Still the same one? (=.="")'

Watched two movies during the new year period. 'The Holiday' and 'Twins Mission'. Aahhh, finally two ticks off my movie list. The holiday was good though. Cc, Brandon, Irene and I watched it together. I thought the combination was quite funny though. Knowing how much Cc 'love' all these lovey-duvey movies. I think the movie gave him some hints on how to manage a relationship. Oooohhh...~~~ As usual, Cameron Diaz is gorgeous. Love is not just a straight line, think of the alternatives, there's always paths for you to walk on.

Twins Mission was just an average movie. Mainly because I think there's some problem with the story itself. And I didn't quite like the color of the movie, as in the production part of it. I thought the movie could have been more interesting.

Currently anticipating tonight's Astro Fiesta. It's my first year attending, obviously! Oooohhh~~~

Also, anticipating my coming Japan trip next week! WoooooHOoooo...~~~LALALA...

Bam!

2007-02-08T00:59:00.000+11:00

I've been so eager to post something up here everytime I'm in front of the computer. But somehow, my mental strength was not strong enough to actually convince myself to type. Just like most of you here, work has conquered my soul and body. What I appreciate most now is sleeping time. The battle between work and sleep has become a major event in my life almost everyday.

What makes up for the dreadful day is always seeing and talking to the people I adored most. Need not frequent meet ups to keep the thread strong. I tried to maintain an after work chat with dear everyday. I named it 'my comforting call'. Hearing what he said, even the lamest joke cracks up a big laugh. Yes, Pumpkin's been saying she can't stand us anymore, after soooo long. It's a love and hate thing between us. Love him, yet hate him everytime he irritates me.

Another call is of coz from my childhood all time fav. cartoon- Addam's Family beloved darling. She need not say much, all she has to do is just laugh out loud to make my day. What more when you know there's always this special someone who is constantly finding time to meet up despite the tight schedule of work she has. Appreciate your friends guys, tell them you love them. (Luckily I always say it to you! *wink*) Hanah hanah, I know you won't agree.

I'm proud of myself for breaking the ice today. It's hard for me u know, however, there should always be someone to take the first step out. Colleagues? I love some of them. Coz I'm not too familiar with the other some of them. Haven't even manage to remember all their names. So many of them ok. But for those who I love, they are cool, get along well, and adds color to my work life.

Great! The ultimate all time cool, charismatic, and heavyweight Richie is in town! Gosh, no wonder I can feel the impact. And we're going to meet him. Finally, all of us are back. Going to meet Richie, Ant, and Pumpkin tomorrow.

Adam, Adam, you passed! You're more 'thirsty' than I expected. Keep up the good work, you have my support and backup. More to come... Likewise, cc passed your assessment too! (Cannot stand you, like dat also wana include the cc in...Fud Hao!!!)

Currently eager to watch:

The Holiday (Top of my list!!!)
Music and Lyrics (Anticipating!!)
Blood Diamond
Dreamgirls
Twins Mission
Happy Birthday
Protege

I know! I know! I'm hopeless with movies lately, haven't been to the cinema for quite some time. Forgive me!

Reunited!

2007-01-15T18:58:00.000+11:00

I would like to officially declare the past week as 'The Reunion Week'!

Last week itself, I've been meeting long lost friends. I mean it when I mentioned long lost friends. The first one would be my primary school mates gathering. 10 years! Been 10 long years since all of us last met. You can imagine how different most of us look. Can't possibly recognise some of them!

After months of planning, finally the gathering ended with laughter and tbc meet ups. It was great to see all of us clicked to each other once we meet. No warm ups or uneasy moments. We just talked and have fun! And the best part was to have our Standard 6 class teacher present! We have never ever laugh and talked to her like we did last week. She's actually quite funny.

Then, it was meet ups with the Ozzie peoplezzz... Howie, Bunny, Val, Ian and Bunny's cute brother. Just reminded me of my days in Melbourne, and Falls Creek!!!

Then, the next day was another meet up with my primary mates. Seven of us met up for karaoke @ Neway. Gosh! Was ages ago since I last went to karaokes. Found out that my classmates can really sing man!!!

And the latest one would be yesterday's gathering @ Seoul. My 5k'01 classmates from Stella Maris!!! Haven't been seeing some of them for 6 years. I was soooo happy to see John, Funny, and Ms. Joyes! John is my all time coolest guy. And Funny, he's still so so so funny. Again, it reminded me of my days in Stella Maris. It was so carefree and slumber. Of coz, was also the place where I met him. Everyone was like, Omg! You're still together?!! Eh, of coz ler, serious relationsip man...!!! Especially Ms. Joyes, I still remember the words she told me when she found out about us. I hope we have proved u wrong^^

I would like to dedicate a song to, Screwy and The Adam's Family members: "When I fall in love, it will be...Forever...lalala..."

The 2007

2007-01-04T01:53:00.000+11:00

Looked back at my previous entries to see what new year resolutions I've made a year ago. Now let's see what I've achieved so far...

My 2006 Resolutions:

Complete my current degree by June (Done!)
Hunt for prospective jobs (Partially Done!)
Hopefully get employed once I return to KL!! (Done!)
Eat more! (Super Done!!)
Save up to go to Japan (Looking good...)
Get to know more people in the industry (Still seeking...)
Hopefully a visit to UK (Still to come...)
Join grooming class ;p (Omg! Can't believe I actually put that as my resolution!)

I guess it's a must to have at least a few new year resolutions to kick start the year. My resolution for this year is a lil' different from the previous year. Here goes...

My 2007 Resolutions:

Employed now, but hopefully to get my ideal job (I mean IDEAL!)
Personal savings up to 5 figure by the end of the year (Buckle up my belt, saving every penny...)
Start my 1st sushi making class (My Japanese restaurant dream!)
Network more media people
Eat more without expanding horizontally (jahahhahaha!!!)
Work for Twins (This will be my resolution every year, from now on...I'm serious about it actually, though it might sound unrealistic to you)
Start my first ever yoga/gym session
The bond between 'us' will never fade
The connection between my friends, colleagues and I will still grow strong
Enjoy more! Smile more! Party hard!

Wow! I'm starting off my 2007 first entry as a different identity. Not a student anymore. Finally, I've passed through another stage of my life. And I'm starting a brand new stage in a brand new year. I have adapted to the change physically. Mentally, well, I'm still adapting to it. A year ago, I said my passion towards the media industry is hot. A year later, I'm telling you, it's still burning hot, with flames!!! Although the job I'm working now can be a little discouraging, but without all these hiccups, I wouldn't be tougher in the future. I need these hiccups to remind me how much I'm in love with media/entertainment. Therefore, I need to work 10 times harder and believe in myself that I would be one of the cool people I see in my company everyday, VERY SOON!!!

So here goes my 2007 counting from...........NOW!!!

Vitamin C's Graduation

2006-12-20T15:21:00.000+11:00

I thought this should be the most appropriate song to describe my feelings about the photos and graduation atmosphere. And my love for all friends out there who have accompanied me these years.

No matter how many times I listen to this song, it nvr fails to put tears to my eyes. I cried so hard when I first heard the song, that was when I left my old school for the first time. Thereafter, everytime I listen to it, my eyes will be wetty. Yes, it's my favorite song and I listen to it whenever I need a good release of tears and feelings. Doesn't mean it's a sad song to me though, it's a song which touch me most. I can't help it when the song is playing while looking through the photos. I'm a freak! Sentimental freak!

But I think the song now suits most to my university graduation. The lyrics are so detail and made me felt more about it.

"And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives

Where we're gonna be when we turn 25

I keep thinking times will never change

Leep on thinking things will always be the same

But when we leave this year we won't be coming back

No more hanging out cause we're on a different track"

It's so true! Well maybe you're not feeling as much or even think it's just a normal song, but at least to me it's a really special song!

Great people, great memories!

2006-12-18T14:39:00.000+11:00

Beware! This is a long one...Read at your own risk!

The last sentence in my previous entry was: 'I need to recharge my battery. So it'd better be a good one!'

Now that I'm back, I'm telling you, the trip to Melbourne was more than a good one! In fact, it was the greatest ever! I'm missing it, I'm lovin' it, and I'm sad to leave! It was so hard for me to leave Melbourne! Leaving all my memories and people behind. I've nvr expect to fall so much for the place this time. My love and feelings for the place has once again increased!

Touched down at the airport itself was an excitement to me already. Looking at the familiar customs and environment, I'm feeling it. Danielle was sweet to pick us up from the airport. Then, entering my ex-apartment Concept Blue, gosh! I miss it so much! From cherry picking to wine tasting, cheese bite, strawberries, steaks, chinese food etc etc...We had it all!!!

Was anticipating Franco and his mum's arrival to Melbourne the 2nd day. Before that, how could I miss out meeting Richie first!!! He's still the same, same old face, slightly thinner, and his same old jokes. I was really happy to see him again, finally! Then, it was Katie. Still sweet as ever, wearing the all time PK smile^^ And finally, Franco is back!!! Yay!!! We threw him a surprise bday visit at his apartment. I bet he's darn surprise and touch! All just for you baby!

Next few days was spent bringing our parents around and busy preparing for the convo night. We took graduation photos on the convo day itself. All of us went to RMIT early in the morning. Gosh! That irritating gown took us more than half an hour to wear. Pinning here and there to make sure we are at our best looks. We felt like a star, the cameras were like snapping every second. And Sze Sze, thanks for coming back!!! Rosa, Billy, Karen, Pret's sister etc, thanks all for being our camera man. Started at RMIT, then headed to Dockland for more photos. It was nice to have some of our photos taken along the wharf, with the coolest cruises and thousands of jelly fish^^

We were dead tired after almost half a day of photo session. Before we could take a good rest, it was time to leave for Telstra Dome- the convo night!!! Almost the whole city was covered with RMIT Graduands. Some marched to the stadium, lazy peoplel ike us chose to take a tram. Coz it was darn hot on that day. But other than the day, Melbourne was darn cold! 12 degrees during summer? What the heck!!! Anyway, I felt so cool as I entered the stadium. As if we are attending a concert. Was darn nervous when I walked up the stage, all I can hear was shoutings and cheerings, didn't even look at the camera posing my V pose^^

Apparently, many told me that they envied RMIT students very much because RMIT is making the convo so grand and prestige. Police have to patrolled around the city for RMIT Graduands to parade etc. Oh well! That's why RMIT rox!!! After all, it really is the people who are there to graduate with you that matters. It is the people who have shared the same amount of time and effort to make this day more memorable and happening! Thank you all for the wishes, flowers, presents and presence to the ceremony!!!

I'm currently looking through the photos taken in Melbourne. It's hillarious, all of us are still the same. You have all again gave me laughters and memories which I can nvr erased from my mind. I'm missing all of you already! I woke up this morning and realised, I'm not in Melbourne, felt a sudden emptiness when I thought about it. Hope my blues will dissappear soon.

To all of you, best of luck in your future upcomings, we will now all strive hard in our career, another new stage of life begins from now!

Decision making

2006-12-06T01:13:00.000+11:00

I'm very excited about my trip back to Melbourne this coming Saturday. Every morning I wake up, I jst somehow felt happy as each morning marks a day nearer to my return to Melbourne. Been planning our stay there and where to go since two weeks ago. Believe me, I've nvr felt so excited and looking forward to a place. Somehow I guess the city jst reminds me of many memories. Sometimes I thought to myself, 'Hmmm, maybe I shld have stayed there for another year to further my studies.' Oh well...

Last week was my weakest thought week. I was thrown into a situation whereby I need to make a decision. It's hard, I was disturbed by it and I can feel my moodswing. People around me suffer from it, and I felt terribly sorry. After much consultation, I've made up my mind. My heart was in total pain when I said no today. As though I've been stabbed on my heart. I can feel how much I want to say yes deep down inside, but I couldn't. It's painful. It's hard. I hope my patience for now will gain me positive return in the future. Well, I guess you jst need to choose between passion and reality. But I was really happy that someone actually noticed my passion. It was the best compliment on me.

Just a short entry to update my life lately. Besides working, there's nothing much happening. Occasional ups and downs, like a rollercoaster, and that's how life goes! But there's always this someone who can cheer me up regardless of any moment. At least I know the next 14 days will definitely boost my adrenaline to the top level. I'm looking forward to meeting all of u again, my first ever formal convo which marks a perfect full stop to my student identity. I need this getaway trip to recharge my battery. So it'd better be a good one^^!!!

Somehow...You and I Collide

2006-11-18T11:32:00.000+11:00

'Somehow, you and I collide...'

This was the most beautiful phrase I've ever heard to describe two people's existense.

It was the sweetest ever, most romantic, special, touching, and unforgettable wedding I've ever attended by far. Yesterday was Jared & Dian's wedding night.

For some reasons, I ws pretty excited about Dian's wedding. As I've expected it to be a special one, knowing her unique taste and all. Her wedding was held at Palace Of The Golden Horses Hotel. Surprise started once we entered the hotel area. It was the welcoming purple balls and a pair of huge parrots made out of different flowers. We were like 'Wow'! That should be something made specially for Dian and Jared. As we approached the ballroom, we noticed all this guys and girls dressed in tuxedos and dresses, welcoming the distinguish guests.

The ballroom hall was as if turned into a carnival night. The hall was all covered with purple and white cloths. They've asked people to dress up in fancy clothes, carrying parrots, snakes, iguanas, and dogs walking around to entertain guests. Of coz, how can I not mention about some guys who cycle around to show their stunts while playing with fire. And they are all real ones! The best part of the welcoming guest part was the leaving message part. They were people stading around to help us take instant photo, then we'll have to write down some congrats message to the couple together with our photo on it. We can choose to stick as many sitckers as we want to make the card special. What a great idea to leave for memories! It's something the couple would treasure forever.

Well, the most exciting part was entering the ballroom itself. Was anticipating to see how the ballroom looks like. Gosh! It was great. It was romantic. We were seated just beside the bride and groom's table. The stage and all were covered with light purple lights. The 10 feet tall muffin cake looks like a christmas tree to me. Which was quite unique to see people use real muffins instead of dummy cakes. Every guest was given a door gift to keep as souvenirs. Theirs was a cd with their 15 favorite songs which represented their love.

Finally, Jared entered the room slowly with his sweetest newly wed wife Dian, holding tight to his arm. They're like prince charming and princess, everyone cheered for them. Believe me, she is so pretty and he looks so cute in his puzzled face. I guess they are the matchest pair I've ever seen so far. The night was filled with tears, sweet moments, touching speeches and lovely videos. The strong bond between their family members were one that touched my heart most. She has the sweetest smile yesterday, and he just couldn't keep his eyes off her for a second. Especially when she dedicated a song to him. I think he nearly melts down. His speech revolved around how much he love Dian's parents for bringing up such a gorgeous girl to his life. He said love was never his number one value in life, but after meeting her, love became his first value in life and she will be on top of his list forever. Awwwww!!! It took them almost a year to prepare the wedding, and it all pays off when the day has finally arrive.

The wedding left me with too much thoughts. Two individuals from nowhere met at this particular point, and that's what it takes to start a journey together. And they've shown what it takes and how far they went to reach this stage of life. The only word I can think of is 'Appreciate' after yesterday's wedding. Don't just let it slip away people. Remember, you are the course of love.

Ewwww, I can't believe Jared's bestman has to sucked some gula melaka liquid out of others belly button during the tea ceremony. Good idea!!!

Congrats again, Dian & Jared!

Rain...home...art...

2006-11-07T22:27:00.000+11:00

It's until now only I understand the feelings of people who stucked in a traffic jam for hours, and finally, HOME! (Am I too late to understand it now?!)

Although I was not stuck in a jam for hours, but the pouring rain these few days is driving me crazy. After all day work, finally my boss is willing to release me from the office. All I want is to reach home asap, take my bath, enjoy my meal, and sit down like a lazy pig while watching tv. The journey back home is already far, plus the pouring rain, it somehow intimidates me.

All I can feel is darkness and loneliness while driving inside the freaking cold car. The rain is so heavy until I can't even see what's in front me. It sometimes make me feel miserable especially when the sky is fraking dark when it was just 6pm. There's this hidden fear in me...which I should not say it out here...

This few days I was so touched and happy everytime I enter my house compound. I feel relief. I feel good. And I realised how much I love my home. After a day of hard work, facing different bosses, different colleagues, the complexity of office politics, all I want is to be home after straining my brain the whole day. The art of dealing with people is never easy. So much more to learn, endless...

It was a great week!

2006-10-30T15:36:00.000+11:00

It was a great week, along with great friends and happenings around. Wish myself Happy Birthday for the month!

Somehow it just feels good when all yr loved ones get together to make you something special. I have my loved ones, my super loved ones, my super duper loved ones celebrated my birthday with me. A surprise celebration which reminds me a lot about Melbourne. Been some years since I last celebrated birthday in KL. It was a meaningful night, a night where I felt I'm loved by my friends and the effort behind it. Finally, cc was beside me for my 22nd birthday. Thank you everyone for making it happen. I can't help but to say I Love Y'all for what you have done.

Thanks mum and dad for spending the whole day shopping and bringing me to eat my all time favorite Japanese restaurant- Wasabi!!! OMG! U guys have got to eat there at least once! And also, thanks for the shopping expenses...wooHOOo... Thank god I don't have to work on my birthday.

Pumpkin and I was telling each other how we want our future weddings to be. I was picturing myself in the wedding gown, people congratulating me, toast, and most importantly, the guy who I'll call Husband for the rest of my life. Isn't it cool?!!!?

Currently enjoying my four days leave after four nights of working. Will talk more about work in my next blog. Not now...^^ Photos to be upload soon in flickr ya...

Thanks all again!!!

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival

2006-10-06T21:04:00.000+10:00

For the past 3 years, my mid-autumn day was spent with friends in Melbourne. On this special day, we'll all meet up for gathering, namely potluck, bbq, sashimi, etc...And because mooncake is pricey in melb, we'll just buy 2-3 and cut each into eight. It seems so precious. It is not because of the festival, but the atmosphere of celebrating it together. Without family members around, they all became part of my family over there. Shared so many different festivals before...

Been sitting in different channels lately, edit the unwanted segments, adding things and all. Yesterday, i was assigned to the Australian Network channel. The whole program was talking about Australia, and particularly talks about Melbourne. That updated me about the happenings in Melbourne lately and some of the familiar places which I always go.

Ask me how much I treasure weekends now. Let me tell you, VERY MUCH!!! I've never thought weekends can be so pleasuring and relax. It's the only time I could catch up with friends to patch up lost time. Also means, I can wake up later for one or twice.

Was really happy to receive RMIT's graduation notice. It's October! Means I'll be back in two months time! Gosh! U bet I'm looking forward to it very much!!! Some special events are awaiting us^^

Today, I particularly miss Melbourne!

Ooppss! Neglected my blog for a month...

Satisfaction...Blues...

2006-09-06T11:19:00.000+10:00

Seeing Franco again jst reminds me of our days spent together in Melbourne and my trip to HK at the start of the year. It was a short trip, but more enough to cure me for the time being.

The satisfaction I'm talking about is not shopping satisfaction, but mental satisfaction, or rather psychological satisfaction. I jst feel better when I was there. Looking at the familiar streets, people, and just the overall feeling of being there. My only reaction was jst 'Wow! I'm back again!'

In a way, I feel down when leaving. I just so want to stay there and start my career in this full of happening events place. It added to my will to work there in 1-2 years time. Gen has started her way there, honestly, I wished I'm there with you dear. It would be damn fun! Told mum again about my plans to work over there, she was happy and supportive. I jst feel the difference being there.

Currently, as usual, I'm trying to overcome the after effect of leaving HK, holiday blues... Serious Hong Kong Blues...It's not a pleasant feeling I'm facing now. It's all hiding in my heart. All I want to do now is to see cc asap, at least I know he could make me feel better.

I miss you, Gap! Hearing you calling me Peach and Hee Hee face to face and shopping again was just so funny. Still, no one can replace it!

Twins Live Concert in Genting

2006-08-21T00:20:00.000+10:00

Finally, my 3rd Twins Concert came to an end yesterday night. A good end! As usual, I'm still in my own mood now, trying to overcome the after effect of watching them. Which is why sometimes I'm scared to see them in person because I kno exactly how I would feel after that.

Everytime I watched their concert, I leap one step nearer to them. And this time, I get to shake their hands! They were just less than a palm away from me!!! Saw them so closely till I can see their skin so clearly. I was damn high and shouting their names when they were closer, until I think Ar Sa and Ar Gill was a bit shocked by the way we reacted. It was Michelle first, then Gen, then me. Their faces were funny. 'How come girl fans are so crazy?!!' I hold on to their hands till I didn't want to let go. Video them with my left hand, and shake their left hand with my right. Then, when they were switching, I shake their right hand with my left hand^^Wohohohoho...

But I bet Mich will nvr forget her yesterday with Kenny. HAHAHAHHA...Kenny was singing, and Mich went nearer to take a better shot of him. Kenny was damn professional and gentleman, he actually posed more than a minute for Mich to snap his photo. And he was singing to her. Gen and I were stunned, didn't know what was happening. It was like the world was just between Kenny and Michelle. I think Michelle is damn in love with him now. I think Kenny was happy to see someone so interested in him... ;p

About their performance, it was out of my expectation. They sang really well and the dance part was great! Particularly like their mandarin medley. They were so sexy and Ar Sa is so so so so so thin!!! They are so so so so pretty!!! I was so touched everytime they came to our side. Shouted Ar Sa's name and she did see me ler!!! I was so so so happy and 'lum' by her smile. Well, she wouldn't even know who am I but at least at that 2 secs she smiled to me.

After the concert, we took photo with Ar Pal and another music producer. My second time taking photo with Ar Pal, he's funny. Much better looking than the first time I saw him in Melbourne. And also, another highlight was that I get to meet the Twins Fan Club members. Some of them were really nice and friendly. Not much time to chat with them more. But they are so pro in organising the gadgets for Twins Concert. I'm impressed! Ooohhh Hoooo,i'm going to get my Twins Fan Club t-shirt soon!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA...

Malaysia is their first world tour stop. I can foresee more Twins concerts in Malaysia^^

I love media, I love entertainment, and I love TWINS!!!

Me...and...

2006-08-16T15:34:00.000+10:00

Realised that I'm getting more organised about things lately. Mainly bcoz when you have someone around looking at how you keep things, how you deal with things, and how you organise things, it does adds to my pressure. Having myself under the controlled area of parents, it naturally made me a more organised person.

I keep my things well now. I place my watch back to the its supposed bed after using it. I don't scatter things around and leave it days after for the enxt time I'll use it again. It's as though I have a constant camera behind my back reminding me not to just leave things around. Cool huh?!!? It's a good thing.

Past week was spent in Johor and Singapore. Attended the Summer Live Concert. Never in my life see so many stars around. As usual, love them all instantly after seeing them in person. Also, it really added to my passion to work in the entertainment industry. Realised how much I'm in love with the job when I see the crews running around to cue people in, with their walkie-talkies and all.

Been long since I stepped into Singapore. Gosh! Love the atmosphere and shopping. I've always had this wrong signal that I don't really like Singapore. But in fact, I love it! It's jsut the atmosphere of walking on the street, just a border away, so much difference with Malaysia.

Met up with Mich and Gen yesterday. Was long ago since we last met. The routine was to Red Box. Just enjoyed it with them. All the songs, the slumbering, the any talks goes atmosphere. Still the same.

Currently anticipating Twins Concert in 3 days time!!! Can you believe it?!!!

Happy Birthday CC!

2006-08-07T16:03:00.000+10:00

Happy Birthday Dear!

Hope everything you wished for comes true, especially the wish you told me^^ *wink*

Celebration started on Saturday when all of us surprised him in TGI Friday's. In fact, the atmosphere started when I gave him his present on Thursday. I was surprised that each and every guest who came that night managed to keep the secret of not telling cc about the surprise till the very last minute.

Picked up his Superman cake from mum's hotel early in the morning on Saturday. Don't you think the cake is so kewl?!! Most importantly, cc loved the cake very much. Can see it through his eyes when he looked at the cake. Thanks mum for sponsoring the so cool cake!

After weeks of anticipation, finally, the day arrived! Pumpkin came to my house earlier to pick up the cake and organised the party packs and friends. I was so excited when cc and his sis arrived at my house, waiting to see what's his expression when he sees all his friends waiting for him in the restaurant. My heart was beating so fast when we walked in to Friday's! As though I'm the birthday boy. Everyone turned back and said,"Ei, fei lou! How come you're here?" CC was damn surprised. He looked at me with a puzzled face. Can't stop him from acting cute, which is the reason to why he's so adorable...*blush*

Anyway, highlight of the night was when the staff brought out the Superman cake and rocked him on the chair. He was asked to stand on the chair, holding his cake. The staff sang, stomped the chairs and tables, rapped him a Superman song, Superman in the house! Hoo-Hah!Superman in the house! Hoo-Hah! They kept repeating it, all of us can't stop laughing when we saw his 'Please let me down' face...I think I'll hide my face if I were him...

Other than the party, I was soooo happy to see Jade and James. It was years ago since I last saw them. It was fun to see Jade and CC stand together again, posing their ass off. I think cc was touched to see his friends attending the party, out of his expectation. It all pays off to see him happy and enjoyed the surprise. He was so serious when he asked me about the party and thanked me for throwing him this surprise. Never see him so sentimental before, and his darn manja face, can't stand it. Makes my heart melts instantly! ^^ (To those who understand what I mean, the after effect of the surprise was quite positive, enjoying it...*woohooo*)

Special thanks to all who came to the party and also to those who helped me along the way. Especially you, Pumpkin!

Happy Birthday, Superman!!!

My realisation of human & nature

2006-08-04T01:14:00.000+10:00

I had a dream today. A dream which made me realised how helpless and tiny human is in the eyes of nature. It's not a good dream obviously.

I dreamt of Tsunami. Tsunami happened just right in front of my eyes. I witnessed with my bare eyes how things were out of control when the huge waves swamped again and again towards my direction. It was so real. I tried to shout, but not a word came out. Woke from this shock, and when I fall asleep again, the same dream happened. As though a continuation of the previous dream.

I saw the the height of the waves, swallowing one building after another. I saw the explosions. I saw how people escaped for their lives. Nothing can be done by human except for running. It's not about what happened, or how many lives were taken in the dream, it's about my realisation of the power of nature vs. the power of human.

This dream bothered me the whole day long. Been having some bothering dreams lately, maybe due to my hidden anxiety. But this dream in particular feels exceptionally different to me. The same set of questions keep repeating in my mind. How far can I go? How much value do I have here? My supposed to have knowledge is just worthless in the eyes of the nature.

It's sad to realised we dominate the world, but yet, people failed to see we don't own it.

A word or two

2006-07-24T14:19:00.000+10:00

I read this article in a magazine and the topic was Friends Forever. It says something like what should you do in order to keep you and your friends in cordial. Find it interesting when I read through some of the must do's with your friends. Eg: Remember important dates such as interviews or her date with hot guys; Email them at least 2-3 times a week to let them know that you're still there...and more...(forgotten!~)

Finally, Franco is back to Hong Kong. Was just chatting with him just now and told him a strange feeling rushed through me when I realised he's now in HK and I'm in KL talking away. Reminds me of my days in HK and the things we did together in Melbourne. Can't deny that I miss him heaps! And Richie, wonder how are you now? ^^ Finally!!! I miss you very much too Fatso!!!

Met up with Tiff, Pumpkin, and CC on Friday. A scene I've been looking forward to for long. Finally, I get to put the three of them together and see how the chemistry works out. No surprises, coz it turned out as I expected. Fun + Laughter! CC himself is funny, with pumpkin herself already a joke ;p , and Tiff's occasional laugh bombs...^^ What's better to have all your loved ones together?!!

Currently: Looking forward to upcoming events (Very Excited!)

A quick one

2006-07-17T18:34:00.000+10:00

Over the weekends, the Melbourne fever just swamped through me...

Why? The initiator was photos taken on the day I left Melbourne. I was asking Franco to send me the photos taken on the day I left. When I looked back at the photos, the scenes and feelings just ran through me. A true, deep, heartful feeling.

Second, was when a friend told me she read my previous entries on how much I miss Melbourne and she was touched and udnerstand how I felt. She told me how she felt abuot my life in Melbourne and how much fun and adaptation process I've gone through. After hearing what she said, I read my previous entries and realized 'Man, i really do miss it. Didn't even realise I've write in every single details about my feelings at that time.'

Then, Steph's arrival to KL triggered it as well. Reminds me of the days when we partied and viva-ing in Melbourne. Also, it was the moment when I realised Franco and Cookie are leaving Melbourne in less than a week's time.

And hey, the practice of maintaining a blog was previously dedicated to friends outside Melbourne. To find out about how things are going on with me. Now, the objective of this blog remains but target wise, it has changed. It's funny coz now this blog is for friends outside Malaysia to update about my life and doings.

It is all these small things that brought up all the hidden feelings.

Random

2006-07-12T22:54:00.000+10:00

It has been a relaxing month. Nothing to worry about. The only task is browse around for potential jobs and attend interviews. It was nerve-wrecking to face ppl who will determine whether you get the job or not. It's as though your fate is in their hands. Was thinking of buying a puppy to start something new, but it might needs to be called off due to the lack of time. Just like human, puppy needs love, time and patience to look after. Guess the job nature I'm going into is a barrier.

Everyone's back now, some for holidays, some for good. Can't wait for Gen to be back and our date together with Mich on 19th of Aug. But it also means she'll be leaving KL for good very soon. Will miss her heaps although we seldom see each other especially these few years. You're always my best chat partner ok. From gossips to couples, twins to stephy and alex...

Met Nic today before he leaves to Perth tomorrow. The scene today looks familiar to me. The feelings of leaving home to a new place, a new life. Understand how he and his girl felt when I look at them. It's never easy to leave your loved ones. Thank god I've get through it. Still rmb clearly how I felt when I left for Melbourne 4 years ago...^^Comes to think of it, knew him since Taylor's time. He was always the one who go out with us, especially during special days and celebrations. Nothing can be more funny than to put Cc and Nic together.

Back on track

2006-06-27T20:45:00.000+10:00

I'm getting used to the life in KL, leave behind the anytime, anywhere life in Melbourne. The people around you does makes much difference to how you see the place you're put in.

Jst came back from a weekend trip from Hatyai. Mum and dad wanted to go there for a short holiday, so Jiaxin and Yim Mun went along with us. It was our first trip together after knowing each other for so long. It was good and knowing Hatyai, it's all abt eating and buying. Cheap and Good!!! As a result, I think I brought back a few kgs and a pimply face due to the delicious/spicy food.

Breaking news! Gen told me that she have decided to move to Hong Kong for good. It was a topic we have been talking since long ago. Both of us were thinking of working in HK in a few years time and hope to stay together. HAHHAHAHA...Can't believe she's going there first to start her new life. It takes a lot of courage to make the decision. Really happy for her, hope tht I'll be there with her in 2-3 years time. My passion is getting stronger and after hearing this news, it adds on to my enthusiasm to develop my career there at some stage. Provided that I have the opportunity. Dear, miss you heaps, come back asap and spent time together before you leave.

She asked me to join her and I really want to, especially when I still have the strength and young. But comes to think of it, there are so many issues and circumstances to consider. Leaving things behind and all. Mum and dad are supportive when they know I have the intension to work in HK. I guess my consideration is really my all time favorite guy. Yes, the guy who has been with me all these years. Mentioned to cc abt it and he jst turned silent and said 'What about me?'. Gen, you're right, cc will curse you if he knows you're encouraging me to work there. AHAHAHAHHAHAHA...

Home

2006-06-18T19:55:00.000+10:00

I'm convinced tht I'm finally home when the hot air in KLIA swamped onto my face. Wow! So this is it, home...

Everytime I reach home, I know I'll be leaving again in either a months' time or three months later. But this time, I know I'm not leaving anymore. I'm still in the midst of adapting myself to the not returning to Melbourne emotion. Tuning myself into a new set of feelings and to settle down.

It's good to be home, besides the restrictions and weather. Good to catch up with old time friends, recall the old days, and know that they are the ones who will support and keep you going as always.

As for my parents, what's better than to know that their daughter is finally home after years of hard work?!! The best part is that they don't have to spend AUD anymore. However, life wouldn't be balance without the not so good part. Mum has bombarded me with the potential dangers of going out late and driving alone. Been telling me everyday and night. I have my curfew and I guess she need not worry much coz I don't even have the energy and will to go out.. ;p She has been putting newspaper on my bed everyday so tht I'll read them. To proved that I've read them, she'll test me once in a while. *_*

I'm exhausted. The best cure is to see the people who're able to cheer you up. Seeing him, seeing her, seeing them...Through his eyes, we know this is the moment we have been waiting for and he's not going to let you leave anymore. Best thing was to witness that we have passed the test of time *blush* The hugging and cuddling part are the sweetest moments. The way he adores you, his eyes, his hugs, and his words instantly melts my heart. The feelings are back and you know he's still the one. Nothing beats the say of your heart.

And of coz the much anticipated moment was to finally see my precious after months, it was a energy boost ^^ It feels good to pounce on each other *wink* More to come...Btw, you melt my heart too. Can't keep things going on the right track without you around *wink*

My job hunt process was one of the highlights too. Supposed to go for an informal interview on Friday, but it was postponed to two weeks later. Currently wondering whether I shld apply for other companies or stay focus on my dream company. Mmmmmm...

Currently suffering from sorethroat and flu. This shows that I'm back to KL for real as I'll only catch severe sorethroat and fever when I'm in KL. Symptoms for the past 22 years *LOL*

Just for...

2006-06-11T01:56:00.000+10:00

Franco,

You're the only guy who will and can play with me like e way we used to. The only guy besides my boyfriend who can be so close to me. I guess we are just the perfect example to show that friendship does exist in the opposite sex. From the first day I met you till now, we've grown and friendship developed. A deep and sincere friendship which I can nvr find in another guy friend. Still remember we said fate has brought all of us together. RMIT has brought all of us to spark off the friendship. I'll definitely miss the days when you commented on my clothings, our times shopping together, thinking what to cook for dinner, clubbing, hairstyle, criticising celebrities, and yr invisible 'protection' on me^^... The days when we were just one msn message away and I'll be down waiting for you to go out. Understand you have been tolerating w all my nonsense and occasional ignorance on you due to my scorp-ION temper and characteristics. But I'm actually listening to what you said, just tht I'm not good at respoding at times. You have been by my side for four years and now, the day we've always mentioned finally arrived. The day when I'm going bck to my own country to continue my life and the day when we need to say goodbye to each other. The friendship meant a lot to me. I'm looking forward to my visit to hk again and yr drop by in kl. Continue to update each other abt news k (entertainment, sex, food, places, my idols...etc)^^

Richie,

Wehhhhhh...By the time you read this, I can predict that you will have this 'Your face cannot go' expression on meaty cheek face^^hahahahhahaha...seriously, you're another really close guy friend of mine, which I've nvr thought we will be. (Due to your...lol) Days of knowing you were short, but friendship has developed deeply. I'll miss the days whn you talks abt yr cold jokes and I'll be thr laughing once you finish yr jokes, the days when you criticised me from top to toes^^, the days when we waited for each other at rmit bookshop, and the days when I dragged you for another shot during clubbing. Of course, also the days when you 'Hanahhhh' me, and say 'Your face cannot go'...Understand yr feeling after we leave, but dun worry k, promised that we will keep in touch and all of us will still stay close. I still need to count on you to direct Sepek VI and employ me as your DOP^^ 'Fatso, your face cannot gooooooo!!!'

All Melbourne friends,

You guys have no idea how much fun times I've had with all of you. Birthdays together, slumber parties, festival celebrations, eating in and out...etc...Those were the days are the most precious thing during my stay here in Melbourne. You guys are the friendships which I've nvr encounter before bck home. The difference in thinking, the way we communicate, the jokes, and the help we gave each other. Hearing you guys swearing to each other with no offence. Hhahahahaha...I miss all of you. All friends from Melbourne, especially those from Hong Kong. I'm missing the days already, missing all of you. The hardest part is to say goodbye to so many of you which I think some I'm not going to see forever. Comes to think of that, it really saddens me.

All of you were the best part of the uni stage of my life. I'm glad to have known all of you who came from different countries. Please take care and all the best in your coming future. For those who had promised to come for my wedding in the future, please remember!!! I'll send you all invitations^^ Special hugs to all of you

My last weekend in Melbourne

2006-06-09T00:03:00.000+10:00

Finally, I'm officially done with all exams and assignments, unofficially declared myself as a grad student. When I handed in my last fashion assignment, all I had in mind was: 'Hmmm,is that it? Is that how it feels?'

The heavy, uncomfortable feeling is still staying warm and cosy in my heart but I can't say what is it. I guess it's just the transition period and it takes time to adapt to it. I'm pretty much done with everything, packed up most of my stuff into cartons, once they are off to the forwarders tmr, I'm pretty much just waiting to fly home. The real home I've not been leaving permanently for the past few years. The real home I'm going to live permanently for the rest of my life. The real home which I will continue my journey by adding interesting colors into it.

Had dinners and bid my goodbyes with some of the friends. Mmmmmm, it was not easy. But that's part of life. Who likes to say the word goodbye to friends? It's never easy to say goodbye.

I'm really looking forward to spend more time with cc to patch things up. To reorganise bits and pieces of puzzles left out during the past few years. Realised how important it is to have someone you love beside you, be there whenever you need him. Feelings on him fluctuates. But him, being the only one who can bring me onto a emotional rollercoaster ride, I guess I'm pretty much addicted to him. I wonder what will happen? Things might work out, or, it might not work well. Hmmmmm...We'll see!

Watched Poseidon today and surprisingly, it was good! Good as in you have no time to think or to settle down your thoughts. No space to work out what will be their next step. At least the things they did make sense to me and it's not like:'WooooW, look at this stunt! Look at that special effects!' Instead, I was like: 'Eeeewww, that's painful! OMG! That hurts!' I felt sad for the passengers on board actually.

Currently: Predicting my feelings when I stepped out of KLIA...

And on and on...

2006-06-04T00:09:00.000+10:00

Bid my second goodbye to another friend today- Sze Sze!!!

Sze is a friend I knew from Foundation Studies, also my ex-housemate. She will be returning to Adelaide tomorrow and head to Sydney in July to continue her studies. She initiated a dinner where most of us from FS attended. 11 of us sitting on the round table, as though we owned the restaurant. Everyone was taking photos, laughing and talking abt the old days. When I looked closer, only I realised how much we've all grown. Especially when Sze took out her autograph book which we wrote for her two years ago. Sze Sze, I'll miss yr bread pudding and corn fish.

It's exactly seven days away for my departure from Melbourne. I'm not feeling that much yet since I still have an exam and one assignment to worry about. But at the same time, I realised that I'm starting to pay more attention on the shops I walked pass in Melbourne and the places I eat in. Knowing that this place has accompanied me through a very important stage of my life.

There are many people and things I'm looking forward to bck home. My loved ones, my career, my future and my life. The line shld be: 'Ahhhhh,finally I'm done! The day I nvr thought I could make it...' But I guess it's harder to leave behind the trillions of memories I had on this place and the adaptation process. It's exceptionally hard when I think of the great friendships developed with all of you!!!

I've not even step out of Melbourne and I can already predict the emptiness I would come across after I leave this place. I wonder what will be the first thing I'd do when I reach KL. Get used to the hot and humid weather!!! I'm gonna miss four season in Melbourne for sure!!! I think I'm going to miss thinking our everyday dinner menu and msn-ing w Franco to wait downstairs for lunch/dinner. I'm going to miss seeing Richie's 'cannot go' face. Realised that he's going through this friends going home blues too...Dun worry Fatso, you'll nvr be forgotten^^ I'm going to miss having slumber parties. I'm really going to miss celebrating birthday for friends in group and vice versa. It just feels good when everyone will plan for your birthday without having you to worry about. It's not like you have to invite people to celebrate with you. This is a tradition we have been practising and I learnt since I came to Melbourne.^^

Congratulations!

"Under the witness of parents and friends present, we now declare Calvin and Elina as husband and wife."

You have no idea how much I felt when I heard this sentence. Today is El's and Calvin's wedding registration today. Headed to Old Treasury Building this morning to participate El's big day. Friends and families congratulated them one after another and finally, I saw the pair of pearl shoes and the dress she bought since last year. She looks gorgeous and filled with contented smile when I saw her. She just looked so different. Different not physically, but the happiness and feeling of going- to-be wife.

I nearly cried El's father walked her down the aisle and handed her to Calvin. The song, the atmosphere and the people around just added to my feelings. Never expect to have that feeling. June and I was like 'Oh my god, this is so exciting...' The vow both of them wrote to each other was so touching. When they read out, I think Calvin nearly cried but El was funny. Knowing her 100 types of facial expressions. They exchanged their rings, kissed each other and is now official husband and wife. Finally, from the day I know her till now, she's married, after all the plannings and discussions. And this is my first time attending a friend's wedding.

My heart just went 'Awwwwww...' when Calvin said to Elina: 'I promised that you will be the priority in my life.'

I wished someone will make this promise to me when my day comes...*wink*

Leave behind

2006-05-27T22:42:00.000+10:00

Things I'd miss most when I leave Melbourne:

Trams (the tram sound reminds me of my 1st day in Melbourne)
Food (it's hard to leave them behind)
RMIT University (this goes without saying)
Concept Blue (miss especially the corridor, will nvr forget the smell)
The people (who walked pass me in Chinatown, Uni, Train stations...etc)
Night clubs (ahhHHh...how much of sober time spent inside)
My carefree lifestyle (those were the times...the times...the times...)
Foreign friends (this is the hardest part to overcome...It's really hard when the day comes)
Shopping (sometimes Melbourne fashion surprises you)
Melbourne itself!!! (this goes without saying too)

Things I'd be bringing home when I leave Melbourne:

Myself (a whole new me who look at things differently now. One of my tutors made me realised how much I've changed over the period of 3.5 years. The values I've learnt during the years have indirectly changed my perspective, leading me into a better person which I hope I'm able to bring it out)
Emptiness (an empty heart trying to reorganise its senses and systems so as to adapt to the real home as soon as possible)
A new identity (I'm no longer fit to state my occupation as 'student' whenever I come across this empty boxes. The days of recalling myself as a student...)
Skills and knowledge (finally, it's time to put my uni studies into practice which I think is one of the most precious things I brought back from Melbourne)

J.A.W.S Concert

2006-05-22T00:39:00.000+10:00

Justin, Alex, Wilfred, Stephy!!!
I can't believe I can see Stephy in person and can't believe she's so near me!!! Can seee her so clearly...It was soooooo near, and I only paid 49 dollars for a seat as near as 189 dollars!!! Isn't that cool?!!! And Alex was just beside our seats during the opening, his smile, sooo charm, nearly fainted for that!!! And I must admit that he looks much more handsome than I expected. At least I like him more now.

And Stephy, she looks like a princess. Thinner and fairer than I thought. And...she waved to me!!!! I was waiting tfor the person who sat in front of me to bend down a bit so that she can see clearly...hohoho...All four of them looked to our side quite often...I've nvr shout so loud before in a concert, I was shouting Stephy!!! Stephy!!! Alex!!! Alex!!! Of the four, Alex looked the most to our side and he was damn alert....No doubt, Wilfred(Lau Hou Loong) and Justin(Zhak Tin) can sing really well!!! They were quite funny though, especially Justin, looks more like a kid. I think he's going to sing his throat off...

Well, Stephy did not sing that well, but at least better than I've expected. Her performance was a bit shaky though. Mmm, she kinda fade off from my top 3 list before seeing her today, but then after seeing her, she's back into the list again. Alex was kinda funny though, at least his live singing was not bad. Most importantly, he's handsome and darn cute^^ Can't believe I'm cheering for Alex now...I still feel that he and Stephy has this husband and wife look. Their duet was the part which I've been waiting for. Finally can see them holding hand in hand in fromt of me...Sweet and nice^^

Many thoughts ran through my nerves as I was watching the show. It's time for me to make some serious decision...It once again proved to me how much I love to work as part of the team. I want it so badly and am really passionate and excited to be involved in the industry.

Food feast

2006-05-18T23:51:00.000+10:00

For the past two weeks, I've been eating out almost everyday with friends, mainly to do some catch ups before I leave. My beloved darling Franco, is of coz almost 99% present in all the sessions. Now I realised time is really running out when he counted the number of restaurants and places we need to go in less than three weeks time. Mum will be arriving nxt week, which also marks the busiest time of the semester for me.

The highlight to eat place for the week is Bimbo Deluxe @ Brunswick. It's not a restaurant, but a pub which serves pizzas and alcohols. If I'm not mistaken, they served pizzas for $4 on every Thursday. It's the gourmet sort of pizzas, not one of those which you can grab from Druids or Inck. Katie will be leaving to Japan on Friday, so thanks to her, she invited us to Bimbo yesterday. Funky place, with 'babies' all around as their trademark. The place was rather dark and gloomy though. Knowing that I'm not going to see her when she's back from Japan, we stayed there longer than we expected. Wanted to leave at 9 but since Georgette and Charlie arrived, we dragged it till around 1 am. Special intro to their Lychee Vodka. It was not a teary goodbye though, coz looking at Katie just reminded me of all the crap jokes we taught her, it just makes me laugh.

On Tuesday, we finally went to Squires Loft @ South Yarra. A place Franco have been telling me since 3 years ago. He really wanted me to dine in the place so Richie, Franco and I went. All of us dressed up smart and nice, except for Richie. HAHAHAHAHAHA...Franco had a tie and suit on, while I dressed up nicely, and Richie...HanaaaahHHHh...Joking! Richie wore a shirt^^. We pampered ourself with a steak and a cocktail each. Can't believe that small amount of alcohol consumption managed to make me and Richie a little drowsy =.=... Guess it was long since we last consume alcohol. Three of us walked along Toorak Road and realised how nice it was to walk freely in the middle of the night, while admiring the nice shops around.

Currently anticipating the club we're going tomorrow at Prahran. Apparently it's a gay/les bar. Knowing how curious and how much I've always wanted to go to this kind of bars. Too bad, my acting partner is now here.

New sets of emotions

2006-05-11T00:06:00.000+10:00

Finally, I took my time off and initiative to post an entry. Thanks to a friend who reminded me that I've been neglecting 'My Circle' for some time.

I realised the conversations among friends nowadays have changed. Our lines are something like this: 'What should we wear for our interviews?', 'Should we be more formal or cool?', 'Do you think you'll get along with your future colleagues?', 'Have you send application to any companies?'...on and on and on...

It's funny how all of us are experiencing a new stage of life. Ask me, and I'll tell you I'm really excited and looking forward to it. Looking forward to it, but there should be a preparation to face the sacrifices after the excitement.

It's 12 minutes passed twelve now. Exactly one month before I'm due to head back home. It's another thing which I'm looking forward to, and at the same time, not really looking forward to. ^^ I'm sure everyone who's reading this line understand what I mean and how it feels. In one month's time, I'll be leaving the place who have shaped me and accompanied me for the past 3.5 years. The place which left me with tonnes of memories and unlimited access of freedom(hohoho, mum's gonna stare straight into my eyes if she sees this^^). The place which makes me realised, 'Hey, who says it's hard to find friendship in uni years?' I found heaps here!!!

Since the first day I arrived at Melbourne, enrolled myself into the course, started my first conversation with people outside Malaysia, I know I'll have the chance to know friends coming from different parts of the world and I know I'm going to face separation with them in a few years time. All I can say is, time flies! It's not the fact that we are not going to see each other anymore, it is the experiences and things that happened among all of us, together as a whole: The jokes, bitching, laughing, bingeing...

Nowadays when I bumped into friends in the uni, they'll asked me when am I leaving. Told them when, and they look at me and said, 'What? So fast...etc etc...' I felt bitter and sourish though everytime I see their reactions...Implies that I'm not going to see most of them in at least 10-15 years time. It's time for me to go through these feelings.

Random

2006-04-19T22:00:00.000+10:00

One week easter holiday is drawing to an end soon. What have I been doing throughout the break? Nothing! OMG! I totally mess out my initial plans to catch up lost time for my assignments. Instead? I've been playing everyday...

Been going through some decisions lately. A decision which might affect my future plans and my career path. Sometimes, it is all these decisions which one needs to make and face when you reach a certain age. The difference is you can't just ring your friend or talk to the friend next to you and ask for their opinion. It should be a solo decision.

Anyway, got my first ever genuine crystal bracelet lately. Thanks to Franco's mum for helping me to buy. Yes, i mean my first ever real crystal. I used to wear those 20% crystal + 80% plastic ones. People who know me will see me wear 3-4 on one hand. =.= Mum bought a few and mine is a pink one. I think the crystal is taking effect and I actually feel it. WoooooWWW~~~If I'm not mistaken, I think the pink one is for relationships and the development of friendship with more people. Something like that, lol...This is the first time I'm wearing a crystal in a proper way. I need to put it into water for a night before wearing it...Not letting others to touch it too often..etc etc...P/s: The main point is, it is effective^^.

Went to Haw Chuan's house for hotpot on Monday. Finally, I get to see the all time funny Joseph. His sense of humour never change. The way he look at someone when he talks to him/her, jsut reminded me of Fallscreek a year ago. Guess what, he's going again this year. Ahhhh...memories...~~~And finally, heard the word 'Bunny girl' from him again.

Guess what?!! I'm going to see Stephy live concert in Melbourne this May!!! hahahahahaha...as Franco said, can't believe you can see her in person before oyu leave back home. Yes! That is so true. Stephy, Alex Fang, Chak Tin, and Lau Hou Loong will be in Melbourne for concert. Pay one ticket to see all four of them...hohoho...Cool!!!

A Happy Ending

2006-04-13T13:23:00.000+10:00

Two months of planning, organizing, and worrying. Finally, it's over! My work with Ch 31 has come to an end and it's a good wrap. The last drama shoot ended on Tuesday when Anna, the director said: 'Done! Yay! We've finished!' I've been hearing almost the same lines for two months, this time, it's really a wrap.

How do I feel? I'm relief, satisfied, happy, and felt as though I have completed a big gig. Throughout the work, I'm honored to have the oppurtunity to work with people from different background and experience, which I learnt a lot from them. Helped to shape me into a more responsible, organized and discipline person. Now, all my time and effort will be back to studies and assignments. I guess there's no need for me to sleep at 10 and wake up at 5 now. Darn! I'm used to it and on the first day after the end of the production, I felt a little uneasy.

Oh ya! Participated in a university challenge last Thursday, and guess what?!! Our team won 3rd prize! It's a competition between RMIT University and Melbourne Uni. They taught us about how to solve a problem and our task is to come up with a workable solution for Child Obesity. There were 20 teams, all members were put together randomly. Glad that I'm in a group where people respect each other's ideas and everyone's given a chance to talk. Didn't expect to win actually.

It's easter breaky now. This is really the right time for a short break. Guess what?! Bought a pair of Bettina yesterday. Went there with Franco coz Aunty Michelle wanted a pair of jeans, my duty was just to accompany him. But shikes! I bought one in the end. Deng!!! Was not supposed to spend any $$ on shopping. Once I start it, it's hard for me to stop coz everything is on S.A.L.E now!!!

Don't follow me, 'um gettin lost!---> (I still miss you heaps, love. Forgive my absence in updating. You're kept securely in my heart. Just too tired lately. Hugs!)

It was good

2006-04-03T18:38:00.000+10:00

Got the chance to be back home earlier than 7 today..Finally! Thank god!!! Well, I guess today's shooting was not as tiring as the ones before. Mainly because I'm getting hold to it and I've got enough sleeping hours!!! Now I realised how important it is to sleep early eventhough I have to wake up early. Sleep at 10, wakey at 5 was perfectly fine. As of this few days, my sleeping hours were 10-5. Not bad actually. By the time I reach home, I'm half dead. Eat my dinner, and run straight to my bed to sleep. Now I understand why filming is such a tiring thing to do and why actors can sleep anywhere, anytime. Was knocked down by fever days ago, which made yesterday a dreadful day...Running in and out the studio, get things and crews organised. You just feel the responsibilities. Everyone's looking at you and your performance.

Being the only Asian and student at my age range, together with the grown ups and most importantly, PROS, intimidated me. The way they work are so different but am I lucky or what, all are friendly and well-mannered. I like it though. Like the praising particularly. I guess after a day of hard work, nothing beats a warm pat on the shoulder with a pair of grateful eyes looking straight into your eyes is the best reward. With this, I'm talking about the actors and crews, but most importantly my boss, Kella!!! Her smiles, the way she remember what you've said eventhough she has millions of other bigger issues to care about...etc...Everytime when I'm at the edge of running out of battery or exhausted, she will appear from nowhere and give me her trademark smile, in her unique accent of saying, 'Baby, are you alright?' I'm all soften down after hearing it.(Knowing how much I like people to talk to me in that way...) Well I guess to have your favorite boss working together with you is the best thing.

Taking up this job is definitely a right choice. At least I learnt darn lots despite the sacrificing of time and health, it's worth it! And I'm going to nail it!!! The terms I love most when I'm on set is 'We've got it!' 'Guys, that's a wrap!'. Second production will end tomorrow. Third one will be up this Saturday, goes on for another three days. Cool!!!

Weekend was good despite my long Sunday shoot and fever. Attended Katie's birthday party on Friday. Oriental night. First time to her house, how I wished my father is an architect. Her house was big and cosy in its unique design. The people are cool and friendly. The food are dainty and yummy. Her party makes me realised how much I'm going to miss this place after my return to KL. Well, when it happens, it happens.

Deja vous

2006-03-26T12:43:00.000+11:00

How many people experience deja vous on a regular basis? What do you think is behind it? Do you think that you are perhaps getting snippets of future happenings in dreams that you don't recall until the moment it happens? I think deja vous are awesome!!! I don't know whether it's a glimpse into the future or is it just a dream I have had before?!

I used to have deja vous on and off, especially when I was a few years younger. All this picture and scenarios keeps jumping in and out of my mind. And lately, I've been having it quite often. Feels like I've been doing all this for a long time but in fact, it's not. All the things were so familiar but I can't recall when I did them before. For example, I bumped into this guy the other day on the street, when he helped me to pick up the papers, I have all this fast forward scenes running through my mind. The feeling was strange. It's as though I've known him for years, but actually, just a passerby. And another incident was the day when I helped the director to apply mud on his hand. It was for shooting purpose and again, all this flashbacks appeared.

It used to freak me out sometimes. But now, I'll just sit down to restructure it for a while, try to recall, if not, just enjoy the process and smile it away. Maybe it's not a bad thing to have it. Or maybe it's meant to be that way after all.

Maybe this is a reason to why I have a very strong feeling towards my dream. They often become real. Maybe in one months time, or a years time, or perhaps, longer. I don't want to sound psychic, but I kinda like the experience. Maybe I'm just having a hectic mind lately. Or maybe I need some debug program to recover my system.

Bitter sweet

2006-03-17T21:28:00.000+11:00

For some reasons, I just feel that I should be honest to myself for once and make a confession. Confess about? HIM!!! Yes! The one and only guy I love and is still having a crush on!!! Some of you might have heard my constant complaints abt him. 'He's so annoying lor...He doesn't seems to care ga...Damn irritating man him...He damn ng sing muk wan...bla bla bla...!!!' Despite all the above, deep down my heart I know he's the only person who can control my emotions. As if I'm sitting on a emotional rollercoaster. I hate it though, but at the same time I know I'm loving him soooo much...

Must be wondering why am I so sentimental today? It all started yesterday...Lately I've been stressing with my uni work, research, and most of all, the production I'm involved in. I'm so particular abt the production is bcoz the people doing it are all pros and I just don't want to make a mess out of it. Especially when all the people are looking at the way you handle the job. Went home and met dear online. After a whole day of work, seeing someone who's really close to you is the best treat. Just a sight of him, and his slightest gesture was enough to make my day. Moreover, people who know him in person should know how much a sweet talker he is. I nearly cried when I talked to him yesterday. But to avoid him laughing at me, I swallowed my tears. *He's damn irritating lor...* Sometimes you might not realised until the very unexpected moment, you just can't hide. The emotions just explode!!! All I wanted was none other than his hugssss...!!!

He is the energy boost when I'm at the edge of giving up. Especially when I know he's working as hard and both of us are looking forward for my return after four years of on and off physical separation. It somehow makes me feel good and secured when I know we're looking into our future. Trying to work the most out of it. There are bitter and sweet moments. Love, is as though you're eating a 85% cocoa dark chocolate. Moments when I'm too frustrated, all I want is to have him away from me as far as possible. On the other hand, sometimes it is the sweet times where we should look into. It's really hard for me to track down another person who can make me cry so much...but at the same time, my joy comes from him...Maybe I just love the way he adores me. Girls just can't resist that. *Darn* Sometimes he just doesn't know what to do and say at the right time. It really annoys me. But at the same time, he somehow sense it and all he needs to do is to say a few words and a short msg and I'm all good with it. *It's soooooooo annoying!!!* Not annoyed abt him, but MYSELF!!! I'm constantly telling myself not to be so soft-hearted, but...Such a contradiction huh...Conclusion, I still love him veryyyyy much!!! *sshhuucckkss*!!!

Did paintings for the production settings today...OMG!!! It's sooooo damn tiring lor...Hands aching now...It's a good polish though. How can I handle my future work if I can't do the stuff now. For my future, I'll definitely get over it!!! *Walauuuu*!!!

Silence makes perfect

2006-03-13T21:09:00.000+11:00

Sometimes people ask me:'Why do you like to stay alone sometimes? Why are you not going out on a nice day like this?'

I guess soemtimes silence is the perfect time to think. Think of your future, where you want to go, and where you stand now. Who knows you might gain something from it?!! My day off uni today was the perfect time for me to stay at home to gather my thoughts. Housemate was not at home today, so I had the house all to myself with my speaker on full blast. I was putting my brain wires together to think of my philosophy and concept for the fashion promotion homework and doing some research for the few presentation in two weeks time.

When I was looking at some of the websites, this particular song by 'them' was playing. My immediate reaction was open up a new internet explorer page and start my search on some prospective companies and job which I have in mind since long ago. I was looking through Galaxy, 98.8, Astro etc. Everytime I look at the companies, all I can say is I'm impressed. It was the 10th or 11th times I've been looking through their portfolio but my feeling was still the same. At that moment, how I wished I'm done with my degree and the next thing is to jump straight into the industry I've been having passion for years.

"Young people who enjoy planning and managing spectacular concerts and events. Young people who enjoy dealing with superstars and celebrities. Young people who enjoy working with top management personnel from various corporations."

I wished I'm one of the young people mentioned above by the companies in the very near future. I saw the list of events they held every year, saw the list of people involved in the event, saw how interesting and fun it was through the photos displayed. I'm touched and constantly imagining myself as part of the family. I want to meet them. I want to work with them. They became my main strength in my studies and work hard my most wanted achievement in the industry. I guess my passion towards the industry was indirectly influenced by them. Now I realised how much impact they have on me. It was until these days I realised the importance. Sound silly and immatured I guess. But I guess it's not a bad thing if someone can actually inspire and encourage you for the dream you've always wanted. Ps: Btw, the 'them' I refer to here is not the companies. *wink* It's...lalala*****

Currently working hard on writing a good and presentable CV. Mum's been asking me to write it asap. Will start to send out in April, two months before I'm due to head home. Now it feels as though I'm in a new stage of my life. Mum no more nag me about studies, instead, she talks about job search and work or maybe how many % of my salary belongs to her. But at least she's supportive towards what I want to work as in the future despite some negative comments about the industry. Whether or not I will turn bad (smoke, work as if there's no day and night...etc)...hahhhahahahaha...I'm feeling the pressure of job search my friends experienced months ago. By then, I'm no more a student but an adult, an amatuer adult walking out of my comfort zone to face the real corporate world!

A day...

2006-03-11T22:32:00.000+11:00

Woke up early in e morning, slept less than 6 hours for the past two days, but still I'm feeling happy and contented. I found the cure and the solution.

The reason for waking up early this morning was because of the beach horse riding which we have booked from rmit. After 3 years, finally I get the chance to try out the beach one instead of the bush. And also, this might be my last time riding a horse in Melbourne. Excited! Left at 8am from RMIT, arrived at Anglesea around 10.30 am. The other group in the bus were those going for surfing. Us, will have to wait for around 2 hours before we can head to our horse camp which is nearby. So we started off with a morning breakfast. The trip leader, Norah was quite active in breaking the ice though. She insisted on playing games like the hand knot, grapefruit game, and the pyramid!!! Sometimes ppl like Norah really adds joy to the group. Well at least I laugh throughout the journey. Along with her was another girl which I think is quite attractive. *wink* Richie will be saying me: 'Chi Sin!'

Neway, we tried to avoid Norah at first since we were not really in the 'game' mood. In fact, wanted to go for a stroll along the beach. But, she got us!!! Played games like hand knot, passing the grapefruit with none other than your neck. (Imagine the amt of contact huh)... I was laughing throughout whn it was Richie's turn to pass the grapefruit to a guy, and then, me!! =.= It's gonna be my biggest regret. *hahaha* Then, we intro them with games like ping pang wah and soyabean. Soyabean was the one which I laughed the most!!! Everyone was so into it, running up and down...And the pyramid! Oh my god! It was soooo funny!!!

My horse of honour is Colonel!!! A darn smart looking horse though. We passed the bushes, trotted, and came to the beach. Gosh! It was soooo cool when 20 horses trot along the beach with all the splashing water. Can you imagine the scene?!! It was breathtaking!!! The view!!! The beach!!! The riders!!! The macho guys!!! AND, the bikinis!!! hehehhehe...But, when we were on the way back, my horse overtake one of the other horses, and damn it! Instead of biting my horse, this bad tempered horse bite me coz I was trying to avoid my horse from the bite!!! The funny part was one of the riders asked me...

Anonymous: Hey, was it painful when a herbivore animal bite? Not tht pain rite...
Me: NOOOO!!! It's not painful at all...I feel ticklish instead!! =.=" zha tou!!!

Darn pain ok!!! My left fingers are in blue+black color now...After every horseride, I noticed three things: 1) Blue black on my legs for sure; 2) Pain at my buttock and further *blush*; 3) Sunburn

I think both my hands are burnt now. Itchy and red. Another thing which annoyed me the most today was the dust and dry weather. Jst imagine how dirty it was when after the ride, I used a wet tissue to wipe on my face and the whole thing turned into caramel color!!! Then, when I was flushing my mucus, I saw all this black color thing on the tissue...Say along with me: 'EeeeeewwWWWWW...!' This activity is not suitable for ppl with oily face...(Eg: Rose-bud)...
Yer, u so bad u know!

Yes!! It's the joy of seeing other people's joy!!!

2006-03-09T23:02:00.000+11:00

Opened up my organiser and it's full of notes and reminders for the things I need to do during the week. It's really the first time I nid to run up and down after not even a full 10 days back to Melbourne. But I guess it's good to be busy and feel the pressure at certain times. It's a good polisher for me in the future. The pressure will and definitely be 100 times more than what I'm experiencing now.

Went to support Karen's CCF gathering today. Was my first time attending this kind of activity. Good experience though. Coz the people there are all friendly, sincere and makes me feel that they are the people without any fake mask on. It somehow makes me feel very comfortable and I guess I'll continue my support if there are more to come in the future. After dinner, I bumped into June!!! Our meeting is suppose to be tomorrow. When I saw her, I was really happy and gave her a tight hug. I felt so touch and happy to see her. It reminds me of many memories and feels like I'm meeting an old friend. Seeing someone without preparation is always the best!

Spoke to Tiff today after sooooo long...Was a long talk though, jst to catch up with updates and life abt each other since she's back to KL now. Miss out the chance to see her by two days. Anyway, it's always nice to catch up with friends who really understand you well. Especially her, we don't see each other as often since we're all busy with studies. But still this girl is the one who truly care and understand me most despite the many empty pages between us this couple of years. Particularly the things and advise she gave me when I needed most. I guess we are the ones who doesn't have to see each other everyday to be address as true friend. In a way, I feel relief to have her around. Missing our old times in school!

Right now I'm feeling excited about what I heard 10 minutes ago!!! I feel happy for you coz the effort and challenges you've gone through finally paid off!!! Seeing you happy is my biggest joy!!!I'll chase you to be the main sponsor for the concerts I deal with in the very near future.

My comfort zone

2006-03-05T16:22:00.000+11:00

First week of class ended. I enjoyed it so far. Well, at least the most important thing is my lectures and tutors are cool.

Met up with Howch for breakfast yesterday morning. Headed to Carlton for a breakfast which is was said to be really good. It's call Cafe 639. A small little red house hidden in between the other intimidating ones. Great atmos and the food compliment it as well. Had Eggs Florentine as my first proper breakfast since I came back. Nice! Guess I'll have more breakfast to come for the next three months...Since I'll never have so much chance to enjoy such a breakfast when I'm back to KL. Thanks ya Howchie! ^^

Went to Kew for dinner at night to celebrate Cookie's 21st birthday. Met with the gang again. First group outing for the year. Our birthday celebrations routine will be on again. Headed back to Franco's house for more games and gossip. I was not too into it since I have too much of other things in my mind. But again, seeing friends and listening to what they say somehow makes me feel livelier. At least I heard laughters...

Sometimes stretching your sight as far as possible tends to create a new sets of feelings. I discovered my feelings when I'm looking out from the window. I see the city, I see the cars, I see you, and I heard myself...

I think I've found my comfort zone.

A whole new battle

2006-03-02T21:22:00.000+11:00

Been the thrid day since I came from KL. Getting back to my usual routine. I"m still holding to the same feeling since the first day I arrived.

I have to say the subject I'm taking this semester has really cool lecturers and tutors. From Communicaiton Research, to Fashion Promotion, then The media, lastly Asian Cyberculture. They are all darn cool people. Gave me a strong boost since I returned with a draggy feeling. Guess I'm gonna enjoy this semester to the very max before I head back to KL for good in June.

It's different. I know that I'll be going back in June and I have already blend myself with this mix feelings. Wonder how would it be like when I leave the place I used to call 'home' for 3.5 years. The 'home' where I learnt to be independent. The place where I clicked to the closest friends I've ever experienced. And the university where I proudly receive my first ever university certificate!!!

Another news to share is my upcoming production with Channel 31. They are producing three dramas and I'll be involved in it. Spoke to the producer, knew more about the post, currently feeling darn excited to start it. The production will start in March, right up to April. Better keep myself busy before I gets too much free time to slack off. My first time involved in a major production like this. Definitely an experience to start off my career in the future.

Sometimes when you're feeling really dry and unmotivated, a good ol' chat is always the best medication. Spoke to her last night and for the whole 2 hours, all I can hear was laughter and lame jokes, but it's more than enough to reboost my energy. I've never felt so comfortable. True enough, it is the listener on the other line that makes the difference.

Back!

2006-02-28T10:47:00.000+11:00

Three months away from what I called 'home', and now I'm back! Back to my daily routine, daily marketing, and the usual tram sound. Three months of carefree life in KL, seeing your love ones by jst a call away, the hot and humid weather, and my all time favorite food. This trip back was different. Coz I know this will be my last trip back to Melbourne with the same feelings I've had for the past 3 years. Four months...Jst four months then I'm done! Am I anticipating it or not? Yes! In a way. And a No! For the other way.

This time I felt a whole lot of emptiness in my heart. Not a feeling I like at all. Once I stepped out of the Melbourne airport, instantly I know it's not the same. The lack of laughter which I love to hear, lack of insaneness which I love to see, and most of all, the lack of pampering which is at the top of my list. There's only one person in the world who knows what I'm thinking now. And that's You!!!

Not a teary goodbye yesterday since I'm going bck few months later. It's jst the thought of not being physically there strikes me most. Well I guess if my sight stay with you for another 5 seconds, you'll have to pay for my tears. Waving to you from a distance is going to be the last thing I ever wana do again.

Missing each and every, bits and pieces of errands we've run together...

Now that we're together

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, nor touched...but are felt in the heart. Love, is one of them. When you think about what it takes for two people to agree that they want to be together, it is a miracle that there is a thing called a relationship. Yes, love is the most beautiful thing, after the process of love, the word relationship comes into the picture. Which I think it's the most difficult to handle.

Many of your happiest memories will be those moments when the person oyu liked returned those feelings and you suddenly found yourself 'involved' with someone. But like everything else in life, the fantasy is usually better than the reality, and with this new experience comes many new problems. Relationships can bring great happiness but also great pain, especially when you see differences comes into the frame gradually.

I guess one of our main goals as humans is to learn how to give and receive love. A relationship takes commitment. In order to fulfill the commitment, is it enough to just promise to love the person forever and always? The kind of commitment in my context says this: 'I am willing to look at both sides of the situation. I will communicate honestly and respectfully.' It's perfectly hard to weigh the amount of commitment each has given out or rather there's no scale to judge whether it's fair or not. It is a voluntary process instead.

Differences. No matter how much both of you are in love, in deep love, sooner or later differences will overtake romance and that's the time when you need to come out with a solution. Or maybe both parties should share the same perspective, holding each other hand in hand. Pull the other one back when you see he/she is about to step out of the path. It is never a mistake to have loved. Just another form of education to yourself. Love is present everywhere, just a matter of feeling it or not.

Another type of 'art'

Finally!!! An entry without the word Hong Kong as title...Been bck for almost a month, but the place is still fresh in my memory.

My first manicure was given to this quite manly and oversize lady in Mid Valley. I hv to apologize for judging someone physically, but my first impression was, "Are you sure this lady can do such dainty job?" The answer is yes!!! She did it nicely and of coz perfectly. She painted and filed my nails as if it's so delicate. Well, I'm satisfied with e french nails I'm having now and a big thank to her. Psssttt...She double and triple checked my nails to make sure it's perfectly done. I'll nvr do a good job if i'm in her profession.

Yes! U said it, pumpkin! Mermaid will be here on Friday and can you believe this is the end of our few planned trip?!! Well, at least for e time being this is the last one in our list. Gonna make sure they enjoyed their 10 days stay in KL and repay his warmest welcome whn we were in HK. Can't wait to bring them to all the places we mentioned e other day. Ps: Her-man is sure to experience one of the sins- Envy!!! Dun worry, I'll keep an eye on him for u.

This is the longest vacation I've ever had...3.5 months!!! And it's going to draw an end soon and I'll be bck to continue the remaining of my studies. My feelings??How shld I put it...hhHmmmm...a mixture of both...I feel more like 'home' whn I'm bck in Melb, mainly bcoz I spent more time there rather than my home here in KL. It will be one of my sweetest memories and most treasured experience.

Hong Kong (The Finale!!!)

Day 13- Causeway Bay
Again, today decided to spend more money on shopping. But sometimes things jst go e opposite way since we are really running out of money by this time. Lunch @ Fairwood today. Another type of chinese fastfood chain in Hong Kong. Thn, headed to Sogo and Times Square for a look at least. Times Square in KL is nothing compared to e one in HK.

Dinner today was hotpot @ Little Lamb in TST. Finally, after almost two wks we had e chance to try e local hotpot. One of my best hotpot session!!! It's very different fr the Malaysian style. They hv all this special drinks to go w it and it was my first time having their Tsing Dao beer together w hotpot. Best combination!!! Thanks to Aunty Peggy for the treat tonight.

Day 14- Pigeon Feast @ Shatin
By today, I can't believe we have been in HK for two wks. I hv adapted to their lifestyle and actually enjoying e fun of taking mtr everyday, experiencing e HK crowd. However, our shopping thrill nvr ends. We went to Lei Si again for our last shopping. Regardless of e first day or e last day, we sitll have loads to buy and spent till almost our last penny. GIRLS!!!

Dinner tonight wuz at Shatin. The long anticipated pigeon feast!!! Apparently it wuz really good and worth eating. Well, at least e pigeon there are much bigger and cheaper than KL. Apart fr tht, I think e overall environment adds credit to it. And also maybe tmr we are heading back, u jst simply feel e effect. Ask me, and I'll think of 20 reasons to why I want to stay here for another two weeks!!!

Day 15- Bye Hong Kong
Woke up early in e morning unwillingly to get ready to e airport. The last time for me to use Franco's washroom early in e morning in order to beat the rest. Been practising this for the past two weeks. And i really enjoyed it!!! Throughout e journey to e airport, as expected, all i have in mind wuz the places we went and e things we ate in HK. It's really e most carefree two wks I've ever experienced for the past two years. All you have to think abt is where to shop and where to eat.

I guess the whole trip was yet another fun and memorable experience. Gone through both expected and unexpected issues. Overall, I'm giving 101% for the HK trip and I guess HK has managed to steal a small piece of my heart. Or should I say...

I left my heart in HK...

Hong Kong (Part 3)

2006-02-03T01:30:00.000+11:00

Day 11- Macau
Woke up very early today to get ourself ready for e Macau day. Headed to e other part of Tsim Sha Tsui to board e ferry. Words to describe their ferry- Advance, Comfy, and Stable. Well at least it's much more stable than I thought. The journey was abt an hour and once we arrived, we headed straight to Tum Chai for crab porridge and pork bun. Apparently, they are the two must eat thing if you ever come to Macau. The whole trip was jst abt eating. Meals after meals till we can't even stuff more to our stomach. I guess the most 'inch' food was the pork bun. We have to queue up for it at 3 pm sharp. Not as great as it should be. Just another normal bun to me.

Then, headed to one of the tourist spot in Macau- St. Paul's Church ak.a Dai Sum Ba. (If not mistaken). The church was burnt down during the older centuries. Left only the front part of it. That's wht unique abt it. Of coz we won't miss out e chance to try Macau's famous portugese egg tart. Yes!!!Very nice indeed!!! Visited one of e casinos in Macau. Wanted to place a bet of 20 hkd but too bad, their smallest bet has to be 200 hkd. Personally, I don't really like Macau. It jst reminded me of China. Don't like the atmosphere. Nothing comparable to Hong Kong. Imagine they are jst separated by a sea less than an hour away, but the difference are so huge.

Day 12- TST
Finally, another no need to hurry for time day! Woke up w/o have to set the alarm and kickstarted e day with a satisfying meal @ Tai Ga Lok. Chinese fastfood, but I love it. I think Richie have had enough of shopping w us therefore he headed to Lantao Island instead. Again, we went to Lei Si for more shopping. But this time, we met this super cute uncle who is a tailor. He jst pulled us to his small little shop and showed us all the working pants and jackets. He's super, super darn funny!!! Still rmb e way he talks, will still laugh to myself whenever I think of him.

Dinner tonight was at a japanese restaurant in Tai Wai. Thanks to Aunty Michelle (Franco's ex boss), we were treated to a variety of jap food. From sashimi to shabu shabu. Love it!!! Thn, headed to a dessert shop nearby for more food to excite my taste bud. One of e things I miss most abt HK is definitely their DESSERTS!!!

Complexity

2006-01-30T03:09:00.000+11:00

At certain times, things would jst go to an edge. The feeling of being suffocated by someone you love dearly. No extra space to breathe at all. No choice, but to say I'm feeling it deeply right now. At this moment, all you need is a friend who is willing to spend their time listening to you patiently, sit right beside you, hold tight to your hand to assure you that, 'Yes, I'm listening.'

When I finished reading Gen's blog, I realised I'm actually missing this friend very much. And really, I mean very much!!! Duno why, but this strong feeling jst rush out all of a sudden. Or should I say it's been there, jst needed something to trigger it. Been quite long ago since we last met. Now I can count the number of times we met each other since we left school. But still, she's the only one who chatted with me most online and that is where we shared most of our secrets, complaining abt our annoying bf, girls talk, and of coz comforting each other at the same time.

Yes! I really want to go on a trip with you, Gen!!! Definitely!!! Especially whn both of us shared the same amount of interest towards the place and maybe the same taste whn it comes to shopping!!! Who knows maybe in 2-3 years time you'll be my housemate??!! :) Hey, just want to tell you, now you're really blogging for yrself and not for others. Can see it through the way you blog. Just want to let you know... 'I miss you very much!!!' (You might be on the bus whn reading this huh!!??) Take care yah!!!

Hong Kong (Part 2)

2006-01-24T20:07:00.000+11:00

Day 8- Mong Kok
A day @ Mong Kok. The streets: Tung Choi Street, Fa Yuen Street, Sports Shoe Street, Kam Yu Street and more. Event for today is SHOPPING!!! The shops and things selling in Mong Kok are lower in price as compared to the others. Two shops in New Century complex already took us around two hours to shop and try on the clothings. And of coz, we did buy a lot as reward. Tung Choi a.k.a Lui Yan Gai is something like Petaling Street. They have more goods to sell and surprisingly, I bought a lot from there. It's cheap, fun, and nice!!! The fun of bargaining with the people is just so challenging. It is necessary for every woman to master the art of bargaining!!! I guess pumpkin and I were pushing the people too hard till they rather to let us pin their head on to the wall...ahahahhahahahha...They even recognised us the next day we went back.

I bet media does play an important role in our daily life. I bought a few street names of Hong Kong this trip. Eg: Mong Kok, Lan Kwai Fong...etc...I feel cool abt it for some reasons. But then i'll nvr feel cool abt the street names in KL. Eg: Jalan Sultan Ismail, Jalan Tan Cheng Lock...etc...Maybe I'll feel cool abt Jalan Alor. ^^ Guess sometimes we watched too much of the HK films and their influence are strong in some ways. I was darn excited when I saw all the street names selling in Mong Kok.

Day 9- Lan Kwai Fong
Went back to Mong Kok again to do our last shopping @ Mong Kok. I contributed most of my cash to this place. But who cares, i'm lovin the things I bought and admiring them right in front of me now...HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA...pssstttt!!! I thought I don't need to but guess what?!?! I called my mum to asked for more cash. Totally out of my expectation and budget...!!! Actually we were all tired after so many days of shopping and bargain war. No one realised it until we were brought to see some sight seeings and when we finally get to take some rest. Woman!!!Woman!!! But anyway, we went to Lan Kwai Fong at night to meet with Katie and some of her friends. It was soooooo crowded and it does feels different. We started the night in a bar to warm up, then proceeded to an underground club for some dance. Guess I was too tired. Dance for a while and find myself strengthless to stay at the dance floor further. It was a good experience though coz finally I got the chance to see how happening is Lan Kwai Fong and experience the Hongkie way of clubbing. Fun!!!

Day 10- Memoirs of Geisha
Slept for less than five hours and we were off to Kowloon Bay to yumcha with Franco's aunty- Aunty Peggy. Our first yumcha since we arrived in Hong Kong. Not too much difference with KL. I guess they have more varieties when it comes to dimsum. Then, we went to TST to buy the ferry tickets to Macau. I was quite surprised to know tht the pier is just located under the complex. Everything is about budgeting and getting the cheapest fare now coz cash is limited and cash aid from mum has not yet arrive. After tht, we went to Vim@ Silvercord to look for some t-shirts. Apparently it was one of the most happening complex now. Hohoho~~~

Memoirs of Geisha was the hightlight for today!!! The first movie for year 2006!!! We have been anticipating for this movie since last year. As promised and planned, we finally watched it in Hong Kong!!! Together with Franco's mum, Franco, and Herman. To me, I think it was a really good movie. They narrated the movie well and 80% of it was similar to the novel. The music adds credit to the movie. But I think Mameha's role really should have been played by Maggie Cheung instead. But overall, my verdict is 9/10 for this movie.

TBC...

Hong Kong (Part 1)

2006-01-20T20:19:00.000+11:00

I'm back!!! Back to the reality!!!

Give me one more month in Hong Kong, I"ll tell you it's never gonna be enough!!! A country with the best shopping spot and truly a busy place. The city of lights, life, and food!!!Yes, I'm currently suffering from serious holiday blues and damn it, I miss Hong Kong very much!!! Miss the people, the culture, the food, and simply Hong Kong itself...I have adjust and adapted myself to the lifestyle there. So you can imagine how much I'm missing the place and how fast one can fall in love with the place!!!

Been away for two weeks. Not too long but it's more than enough to reveal many things. One of it is my inner shopping devil. Believe me, I just recently discovered tht I'm just another typical woman with huge interest whn it comes to shopping. I 'thought' I was not one of them. ^^ The feeling was different when I came 12 years ago. So much difference!!! Also, sometimes it's the people you are going with. It does matter a lot. Thanks ya!!! *wink*

Anyway, whether you'll read it or not, I'm gonna spell out each and every detail thing I came across in Hong Kong through this entry. So beware!!! This is a long entry!!! Stretch your body and prepare to strain your eyes...Here goes:

Duration: 05/01/06 - 19/01/06
My Hong Kong fever with the gang namely: Richie, Irene, Valene.
Welcoming us from Hong Kong were: Franco & his family members, Cookie and the rest of the gang in HK.

Day 1 - The arrival
Arrived in Hong Kong International Airport @ 6pm sharp. Took us only around 15 minutes to come out. I was wondering whether there will be any stars around. The feeling was rather funny and new when I arrived. Instantly love it when I stepped out of the plane coz this is the trip we have been planning for almost a year, and now, we are here!!! Waited for Franco's mum to pick us up. She looks exactly like Franco, just shorter. Brought our luggage along and proceeded to Franco's house @ Shatin. We took the double decker bus to his house. Believe me, the night view in Hong Kong is superb! The houses, or should I call them condos just appear roll after roll. Non-stop! Aunty was quite comfortable with seeing us for the first time, well at least we did not leave any bad impression upon first meeting. Another feeling struck me when I arrived @ Shatin. Though the houses in HK are small but I love the environment and the concept of living in a small community within an area.

WoohOO! Checked our luggage in and excitedly tried our rooms. Also, patiently anticipate Franco home. Was so happy to see him after two long months. He was still the same except tht I think he's getting more handsome with his own charisma. Hahahahahha...Headed straight for dinner @ First City Complex just round the corner. Oh ya, one thing I love about Hk are the street names. All in chinese and sounds very nice. After dinner, we headed to a supermarket nearby to buy some snacks and then proceeded to 7-Eleven for Vita Soy. Franco told us it's a must for every schooling people to drink it. 7-Eleven in HK is so different from the ones in Malaysia and Australia. It's like a mini supermarket itself with lots of things to see and eat. Love it! Then, we further proceed to the curry fishball, just next door. This was one of our must do list. To eat curry fishball at a roadside stall...^^

Day 2- Twins Concert
Woke up nice and shine in e morn, kickstarted the day to New City Plaza @ Shatin. Before tht, we all bought the Octopus transport card so tht we can take the MTR/KCR conveniently. Walk around the complex and came back to Franco's house to put down some stuff before we head to Hung Hom Collisuem for Twins Concert!!! Had dinner at The King of Steak House but the food was below average. AHAHHAHAHAHA...

The concert venue was so so so big and impressing. It was the crowd and amount of people tht makes the effect. So different from watching a concert back home and of coz through vcd. The atmosphere and the people. The crowd and the settings. Well of coz Twins Concert was one of events which I look forward the most to. Was my second time seeing them and this time, in their home country iteslf. They rox!!! After the concert, we headed to Tsim Tsa Tsui a.k.a TST for dessert. Quite a tired day though. One thing I like abt HK was the amount of people you can see at late nights. It's almost similar to day time. You can walk on the street during late nights and to me I think it's pretty safe. Taxis everywhere and people walking on and off the street.

Twins concert was one of the highlights for the night. Another highlight was meeting our new friend- Herman. ^^ He is Franco's friend and I think he's funny. Looking at the way he talks and treat people. Funny in his own way with his own charm.

Day 3- The Peak
Before we head to The Peak to catch a good view of Hong Kong city, Franco brought us to Causeway Bay (Tung Loh Wan) to walk around. Franco's house belongs to the New Territory area, block by a mountain. By crossing two tunnels, it will lead us to the other side of Hong Kong. Which is the Hong Kong area. Comprises of Central, Causeway Bay, Amiralty and more. Had our lunch along a small alleyway. Filled with its own taste and culture. Took the smaller kind of bus we used to see in all the hk series, 'Siu Ba' to The Peak. Reached there around 3 in the afternoon.

Took a ride on the cable car right up to the peak and thanks to our very handsome guide, Herman, he lead us to walked an one hour trail to admire the city of pearl from a breathtaking spot. It was nice and by the time we finished the walk, it was night time. The lights, the buildings, and the people makes Hong Kong a truly beautiful Asia country. Just right before that, we insisted on trying the Ice Cream Fondue in Haagen Daz under the less than 10 degree weather. WoooooWW!!! Syok!!! Today, we had four people sleeping on two bunk beds. That is what I call slumber parties!!! Having the most favorite person sleeping right beside you, it's just hard to describe the feeling. *wink* You know who you are...!!! Bu Ke Yi !!!

Day 4- Causeway Bay
Sunday!!! A day out with Franco's mum, Franco, and Herman to Causeway Bay. Full packed with people and crowd. Aunty took us to this something like food exhibition where you can get the cheapest price for different goods. More towards new year stuff. Again, I experienced the crowd, lucky to have a cooling weather, orelse I'll be going crazy!!! By the fourth day, I have alraedy spent almost 2500 HKD on food and shopping. My every night must do task was to calculate my expenses for the day and admire my goods.

Day 5- Hong Kong Disneyland
Woke up early in the morning to start our journey to Disneyland. Met up with the rest in MTR station and headed straight there. Arrivedat around 10am in the morning and our very lovely Katie was already standing there waiting for us. Katie is one of our classmates from RMIT. Sweet and pretty as usual. She is currently working for Disneyland Hong Kong for a year, will be going back in Feb. Guess what?!!She's one of the princesses of Disney. Therefore we had the privilege to take photo with her as long as we want and the privilege to know where the other princesses were located in order to avoid the crowd. The best thing was we don't have to pay a single cent to enter Disneyland!!!

Disneyland itself was not very big, but we were able to spend almost 12 hours there. WAtched all the performance and almost all the rides. The best part was the fireworks outside the castle at night. Superbly nice and romantic. Very different from the fireworks I normally see. Another highlight of the day was our dinner @ Lin Heong Lau in Central. It was one of the oldest restaurants in Hong Kong with its own heritage. Some of the gangster scenes where all the tai lo fight was shoot here. The dishes were darn nice and new. Love the bacon with pork and duck liver. Yes!A very fattening dish. But, I'm lovin' it!!!

Day 6- Shopping @ TST
The real shopping spree begins today. Finally, we came to TST for some real shopping where you can see all the darn cool and pretty salesgirl around the shop in their coolest outfit. Also, one of our must go place for today is Low B Club @ Lei Si. Which is Ar Sa's boutique. In comparison with the other shops in Lei Si, her shop was really the least trendy and nice, which of coz was a dissapointment. Managed to find something I like there but was too expensive. The sales people in Hong Kong has a few characteristics. One, they are very friendly. Two, very trendy. Three, most are quite pretty. I was intimidated whenever I enter a shop, fearing tht I might look too outdate and kampung. ahahahahahahahaha...but I got used to it after a while.

Lei Si is not a big shopping complex like KLCC or Mid Valley, it looks older than the Low Yat building. But the fashion and things selling inside are unique and darn in. Poor Richie have to walk with us for hours and helped us to carry our stuff. Imagine there are six floors in Lei Si, and it took us two hours just to finish the first floor!! Reduction is the magic word which pushed us to buy so much.

After almost a day @ TST, it was time to head back to Franco's house for dinner. Todays dinner was prepared by Franco's Mum a.k.a Aunty Susan...^^ There were all together eight dishes I think, all was more than enough to pamper my taste bud. Poor aunty started cooking from 12 noon till eight at night. But her hard work was repaid by our big appetite. We finished almost everything, putting two thumbs up!!!

Day 7- APM
We went to the Hong Kong Musuem of History to know more abt the transformation of Hong Kong from a small fishing village to one of the most important cities in the world now. Was good to backdate ourself to the past, understanding the different stages and cultures of Hong Kong. Then, we proceeded to TST for Wanton noodle. The prawn wanton is bigger than a ping pong ball. Yum!!! Then, Franco brought us to The Avenue of Stars. It does felt like a star when we were walking on every hand prints of the stars. Managed to catch an overview of the Hong Kong buildings from one side of the sea. My favorite structure is the exhibition centre of Hong Kong.

Franco left us for work and we headed to APM @ Kwun Tong. One of the most recent and coolest gathering spot and shopping complex in Hong Kong now. Most of the movie promotions were held there. After this trip, eating dessedt have become one of my favorite things to do. Their desserts are darn nice!!! For dinner, Cookie was the host tonight. We went to her house for Poon Choy. A traditional dish where you have many things in one pot. Namely scallops, chicken, prawns, duck, mushrooms, cuttlefish, lotus and more. Personally thinks it taste normal but was interesting to try it since I always sees it on tv.

I think this entry is long enough to keep your eyes tired. This is only the first week in Hong Kong. I'll put part two up soon...

TBC...

One more day

2006-01-04T01:28:00.000+11:00

Just one more day...One more day I'll be heading off to Hong Kong!!! YAY!!!

Can't believe the trip tht we have planned for almost a year has finally arrive and it's actually happening!!! A trip which all of us seriously looking forward to. There's so much to expect. Eg: Twins Concert 06!!!, Food!!!, Fashion!!!, Lifestyle!!!, The Place Itself!!!, and most importantly...My beloved Hee Hee a.k.a Franco...!!! Been missing his handsome face for long...and now, here we come!!!

Looking forward to the moment we board the plane while jumping like a bunch of small kid going on our first holiday outing. Franco's parents will fetch us from the airport. Still remember a year ago all of us spoke to Franco's mum in Gold Coast, telling her tht we will all come to disturb her in 06. And now, the time has come!!!

I'm sure this trip will be another memorable trip. Will make the best out of it and survey my future working place thoroughly!!!wahahahahhahahahaha...Will be away for 2 weeks, a full entry about our HK trip will be seen here in 2 weeks time. Promise not to leave out a single detail about it...WOoooooHOOOOOOO...~~~

Take care all!!!

The 2006

2006-01-02T21:46:00.000+11:00

New year. New beginning. New phenomena. New faces. New encounter.

Things will start from scratch when the year stepped into 01/01/2006. I guess it's a must to have at least a few new year resolutions to kick start the year. My resolution for this year is a lil' different from the previous years. Here goes...

Resolutions:

1. Complete my current degree by June
2. Hunt for prospective jobs
3. Hopefully get employed once I return to KL!!
4. Eat more!
5. Save up to go to Japan
6. Get to know more people in the industry
7. Hopefully a visit to UK
8. Join grooming class ;p

This year marks the end of my 3.5 years in Melbourne. Comes to think of it, 3.5 years was pretty fast. It will be a big turning point of my life and I'm already feeling the difference. I will lead a whole new life after June. The end of my 17 years of student life. No more semester break or long term holiday. Instead, I'll be looking at annual leave in the working world. I'll miss the people, the place, and the experiences which shaped me into a different person now.

Currently thinking about my future in the industry I'm interested in. Will work extra hard and hope that I'll be heading to HK to work in a few years time. Watched an award yesterday, the impact was so strong until I can feel my passion in the industry is burning hot!!! I have so much to look forward to...Knows perfectly well tht once I start work, I'll be running hard to look for the finish point. Which of coz I'm not looking forward to the finishing line so fast. There are still so much to learn. It's only the beginning of a new life. Pass Stage 1 and stepping into Stage 2 of my life.

So here goes my 2006 counting from...........NOW!!!

Wrap up 2005!!!

2005-12-31T15:45:00.000+11:00

Yes!!!A special entry to end year 2005!!! The year in review 2005!!!

Blink blink!!!It's the last day of 2005, from tomorrow onwards, i'll have a new set of resolution for year 2006...!!! WooooooWWW~~~Isn't tht fast?!!!?

As for 2005, I think i've done pretty much in terms of eating and playing... =.= I guess it's a busy year for myself. Study wise, i've completed what i'm supposed to do and learnt what i'm supposed to have know. Holiday wise, right now i'm still pampering myself with the year end summer holiday. In terms of eating, I guess I have exceeded my quota. Friendship wise, I have gained and now still gaining more than I should have...*wink*

10 Things I Stored about 2005:

1. Twins Concert @ Melbourne
2. Gold Coast Trip
3. Skiing @ Fallscreek
4. Summer school at RMIT
5. Tasmanian Devil's Sleepmate
6. Lion King Live on Stage
7. My 21st Bird Day
8. All Clubbing Sessions
9. Slumber Parties

and last but not least...

10. The beautiful friendships established with the gang

Am I satisfied with my achievements this year? Yes I guess. I'm satisfied with my life in Melbourne. Mainly because I have the best companions around, engraving the sweetest memories into my brain. Also satisfied with my achievement academically. I guess this is the most important to my parents and of coz a result of working hard to myself. Actually didn't really worked tht hard...hohoho~~~Relationship? There were good and bad times, it's a matter of getting over it and tolerating with each other. This guy did his best to lightened up my day. *blush*

Resolution for year 2006?? Still thinking...Will be up soon...

Toast please!!!~~~

Beauty or Beast?

2005-12-22T23:52:00.000+11:00

Finally watched my first movie in theatre after a month back home. Went to watched 'King Kong' with Howch today @ Imax Theatre Times Square. Was supposed to watch Narnia instead, but as usual Mid Valley is always full packed with people so we detoured to Times Square. 15 bucks for Imax, whereas in Melbourne I'm paying 10 dollars aussie for a normal screen cinema.

Thanks to Howch for the tics I got to enjoy the movie with super great sound and graphics. The movie itself was three hours long but like Howch said, it didn't make me felt like it. The movie was quite touching in some ways. This was my first Peter Jackson produced movie and now I see why he's so successful. Needless to mention, the graphics itself adds a lot of credit to the movie. As for the storyline, Howch told me it was similar to the first King Kong. Anyway, this was my first King Kong movie and I think they narrated the relationship between Anne as the beauty, and Kong as the beast in the story really well. Everything single action and gesture was so detail. No need for any dialogues between them.

The part where I like the most was Naomi Watts expression. The way she look at the 'ape', her eyes, so attractive and beautiful. The funny part was I've never seen a T-Rex battling against a King Kong and gawd, some of the scenes were quite disgusting. A good and worth watching movie though. I wonder in real life, is it the beauty who's controlling the beast or the beast is falling into the trap without thinking twice...

My rate: 8/10

Currently anticipating: Memoirs of Geisha, A Chinese Tall Story, The Promise and Superman. ^^

Got my first christmas present from Howch today. thanks to his white lies and surprise. Cheeky guy...Tong yun day today!!! Went back to granpa's house for some family reunion dinner and tong yun!!! Grandma cooked my all time fav dishes and the best was the soup. Though everytime i go back she boiled the same soup, but still i like it. WooHOOooo...

Christmas Fever~~~

2005-12-21T23:19:00.000+11:00

Christmas is drawing nearer!!! Christmas Carol...Christmas Wishes...

Christmas decorations in complexes was up long before I came back. The one I like most is Mid Valley. Can truly feel their white christmas atmosphere, especially at the center court. Everytime I go there, I'll see all this models in different costumes parading on stage. Particularly in love with their christmas trees...

I guess christmas is really a celebration which people like most. Well, for me I love christmas the most mainly bcoz of the significance of it and the way people celebrate it. The pre-celebration of it started as early as September...Christmas songs can be heard everywhere, on tv, radio, on the street...I'm really looking forward to a white christmas celebration and all the lights and atmosphere in Hong Kong. Hopefully by the time I reach there the lightings and all will still be there.

Yesterday was mum's birthday but did not really celebrate it big coz she and dad are both sick and felt really tired. And now, dad is having high fever and mum is coughing non stop. Despite the sickness, both of them still insist on going to work coz they claimed tt it will make them feel better. I wonder will I say the same thing one day when i'm working. Talking about work, the event company i worked for during the annual dinner said they will have a few events in Time Square in January. Asking whether i'm interested to work during the events...Before i even say yes or no, they told me before hand tht it would be really tiring and late nights...WoooooOOOWWW...~~~Most probably take it...

In conjunction with the coming christmas celebration, I've decided to start my early christmas feast myself first. Took granpa's famous glutinous rice and pao this morning and then followed by ordering delivery from Mc'D. WAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA...I can't believe i ordered so much coz i alone consumed a total of 20 dollars of food...wahahahahhahahaha...Can't resist fastfood outlet with delivery service. This is such a good idea and Mc'D requires just a minimum of one dollar for them to deliver right at your doorstep...!!!WOoooooHOoooooo...

Yay!!!Dear's coming home tomorrow...8 days!Just 8 days...!Anticipating him home, just in time for christmas together...

Merry Christmas ALL!!!~~~

'All I Want For Christmas Is You' is my favorite X'Mas song!!!

Just crapping...

2005-12-18T01:49:00.000+11:00

Just felt like posting something up here since I'm in e mood of blogging today.

Been seeing many of mum's colleagues in e hotel lately and I find myself kinda like some of her staff, maybe due to the way they talk. Actually I knew them since the opening of the hotel almost 1o years ago but I don't go to the hotel as often until the recent two years. And thanks to the annual dinner, I got to see and talk to them more.

There's this one staff in the hotel which I particularly like, Karen. The way she talk is so funny and I kinda like her. Someone new to me. Especially lately and today, after attending a christmas party with her, we kinda talk bout different things and she just makes my day everytime I see her laugh and eat. She's in her late twenties but the click was there when I saw the way she communicate with me. The funny part is she just knows how to stir up my interest to talk. She gave me a very pleasant feeling when talking to her and she's one of those which I want to keep talking to when I'm down or watever.

Maybe this trip back i've been meeting mum's staff and working people a lot. It actually brought up my interest to know more abt them and how people work. Especially those after work dinner and parties. Surprisingly, I find myself quite open to them and mum's secretary, Sarah is killing me with her looks. Ahahhahahahahaha...She's not particularly pretty or watsoever, she just has this special something in her which enhance her beauty. In her late thirties, but still, great body. She was one of the performers in the annual dinner. My gawd!!!Dance really well and darn sexy...

Currently anticipating dear to come back from his hols this coming thursday. Didn't expect myself to miss him tt much until he left. And darn, he is just leaving for seven days. Well i guess you won't know you miss someone so much until you feel their absence.

The Corporate World

2005-12-17T02:11:00.000+11:00

Phew~~~Now I truly understand how the social life in a corporate world works...And it was until today I saw the importance of mum in the company...

Today is the Multi Purpose Group's 37th Annual dinner @ Flamingo Hotel. Magnum as one of the hosts as well. The group appointed Phantom Event Company as the organiser and I was given a chance to work with them throughout the event. Been going to e hotel for rehearse and shooting as there were six groups of staff performance and of coz, the performance by Magnum Group is one of the highlights. Knowing how important and big is the dinner, there are just so many things to run through the list.

The Phantom people are really nice and maybe it was partly because of my mum's pr skills, the person in charge gave me a lot of work to do. Since my mum said do not hesitate to scold or give her work to do...=.= Good practice!!!

The theme was 'Colours of Life'...Guests and vips came w their best dresse. Gawd!Mum spent almost 800 dollars for two pieces of tailor made dress(only the workmanship)... =.= As usual, she was the most colorful of all until the directors of Magnum insisted on not letting her to participate in the Best Dress title. She was the judge instead. Cool huh...!!! And also because she received her 20 years long service award from the company and act as the role of queen in the performance. WOooooWW!!! I have to see she looked really classy and superb today. Learning from her, learning from her...

Why did I say she's important in the company? Coz I saw how all the board of directors and important people trusted her. The first person to look for when they arrived was Connie Woo. They just love to social with her and love her colors. Even the grumpiest financial controller of the company love her. Well I guess this is what mum always told me to be colorful...She was sitted right behind the vip's table. From the control room I saw one after one they cheers her and saw how she handle all the scenarios. One glass after another. I'm telling you now, she can really drink and the mc of the night is really funny and good!!!

I have to thank the Phantom people for constantly telling me : 'Girl, you better be prepared to work every day and night without rest in the future...It's really tough and no one is there to spoonfeed you...Are you prepared?' Yes, I get it!!! (The Phantom people are really cool...Especially the girls...huahuahua...But seriously, the way they work and sort out things are really professional...)

My conclusion is: The corporate world is really complicated. Looking at the different faces when they see different bosses. Well, tt's how it looks like and I'm joining them soon...

Jingle Bell, Jingle Bell...

Congratulations!

Happy Graduation to all graduates 2005!!!

Another proud and happy occassion happening this week. Some of my friends will be graduating this week and sincerely, I wish you guys all the best and congrats on all the effort. It's really an anticipating moment and we have all work hard just for this day to come.

It will be my turn one year from now. WooHOOOooo...!!!

Spending time with the person u love is really a feeling which is hard to describe. A friend asked me this question yesterday: 'Do you think you still love cc as much compared to 4 years ago?' 'Do you think what you're asking for at the age of 17 is the same as now, 21?' I had this questions in my mind before and it did give me a whole lot of trouble at tt time. It was all self create problem. She even said, life is too short, you have to try out different things out there. After listening to what she said, all i can say is trust yr instinct and follow what yr heart says. There's no way you can beat yr true feelings. Maybe it's rather true tt guys won't think of all this unnecessary problem. And cc was right when he says you don't know what will happen next, so just not think of it and enjoy the time spent together now.

Attended a wedding dinner yesterday and trust me, I was imagining myself in e bride's position and having all this wedding fantasies. Saw the couple's face and how their friends congratulate and gave them their best wishes. It's really once in a life time experience but please, I'm not going to allowed my wedding to have all those chinese karaoke session. All the aunties and uncles were rushing to sing their old theme songs. But it was darn darn funny!!!

Who knows who will be my Mr. Right in the future?? All I know is this guy standing beside me now is the one who can make my day. WooooooWWw~~~Trust your feelings since you won't know what will happen tomorrow.

If something is important to you, fate will somehow make sure it comes back to you and give you another chance.

Congrats again to all of you!!!Smile!!!XOXO...

Happy Birthday to Franco

2005-12-10T09:30:00.000+11:00

Happiieeeeee 20 + 3 Birthday to the Most Handsome Hee Hee in the world - Franco Wong!!!

Hope you'll have a blast on this very special day of yours!!! Enjoy your outing with the gang but I'm sure you'll be missing the fun of celebrating it with all your beloved Drama Queens. We will celebrate with you again when we rock Hong Kong in January.

You know you're my all time bestest boyfriend ever since I got to know your drama queen character three years ago!!! Thanks for all the advice and time spent to accompany me when I was down. Seriously, life in Melbourne for the past three years would have been different if it's not because of you.

Hearing the stories and happenings you told me this few days, I hope this year is a special birthday for you. Wish you a great year ahead and may all the best opportunities happen on you in the future...!!!

Looking forward to see you in three weeks time!!!

My Memory Lane

2005-12-10T01:07:00.000+11:00

When I tried to recall the first thing tht came to my mind when I kno I'm going to study in Australia, instantly this line appear...'3 years!!!almost 1000 days!!!What will happen and how can i get thru the 3 years???' But now, i'm surprised tht it's coming to an end soon and i'll be off to the working industry sooner than i've expected. This brings me to think tht no matter how long is the duration, or how day u have been anticipating for is maybe 10 years ahead, it will come one day. The day will come without even realising it. And it is during the period of waiting for the day to come, our life experiences increase to a great amount. We will have to go through so many stage in life in order to wait for the special day to come.

Must be wondering wat makes me think of all this...?!? It was bcoz of a friend who will be going to study in Melbourne next year. Might be my potential housemate...^^ It's her first time and same as me 3 years ago, she's only 18. She asked me many questions which I asked my friends 3 years ago. All of a sudden, she makes me feel tht I have grown in many ways and I've learnt so many precious lessons during this 3 years of personality polish in Melbourne. Three years ago, I insisted to leave KL asap in a broken heart and tears. 3 years later I was so proud of myself for making the decision to study in Melbourne and true enough, I'll be filled with tears when I leave the place. Tears of joy people!!! It's really once in a life time experience and there's no detour in front to go back. I have the most personal precious experiences and memories all stored in a section of my brain. I name it my 'Memory Lane'...The people, the place, the uni, the happy moments, the many first timessssss...etc...

True enough, as you grow older, u tend to have emotions on different things. The slightest thing might end up as the biggest. Today, while watching a 45 mins vcd, I was so into it tht I cried for the whole 45 mins. Sometimes I think soundless cry is quite comfortable (for me). All u need is to sit there and let your tears flow according to your emotions. I felt so comfortable when I was sitting in front of the black box alone, admiring the movie with tears. It gave me the space to think and release my emotions. Not tht I was sad or watever, sometimes I think a person jz need this kind of movie to unlock all the hidden emotions. It's like shouting out loud in front of the ocean...

A couple of new things

2005-12-02T13:30:00.000+11:00

*WOoOOOoooWWWWW* Guess wht?!!!?

YuppP!I finally had my hair in dark color after five long years in those gold,blonde or watever color...Yes,it's in a very dark color now,almost black!!!Had a lil' trim since some said they prefer me in fringe, and might rebond it after two weeks maybe...Should I?huahuahua...Mum and some friends were saying tht I looked different in black hair...AHHAHAHAHAHHAHA...It looks new to me. Actually not total black,it's closer to a real dark brown...Makes me look more descent I supposed...This morning when i woke up and look into the mirror...'Yer,my hair...ahhahahahahhaha...takes time, takes time'

Guess people might be wondering why am i uploading all those photos at my sidebar???Trust me, I was in shock as well when I saw them here...It took me around five minutes to calm down and stop laughing...But i bet someone will be darn proud of e work done here...Good laugh, good laugh...Only ppl who knos tht i love them dearly dare to upload these photos here...^^ *wink* Bet u must be feeling darn syok while uploading e photos coz i cant do anything on u(Eg: Catch me, bite me...) Just love to make fun of me huh...?!? But i'm really impressed w yr creativity, din expect these photos to be here...GOOD!!!Great job!!! I count on e right person!!!*eyes rolling* So i see someone is very proud of this phrase yah: 'You're e best thing.......on me'!!! It's fr e bottom of my heart...*wink*

Had dinner with cc and mich on wed @ a hawker centre in subang. As usual, with mich around means our table will be loaded with food...!!!Chicken wings, satay, sushi, char kuey teow, mushrooms...etc etc...The food?So so only...Was supposed to have dinner with cc's sis instead but couldn't make it...Hey, i'm looking forward to see u ok,leng lui a.k.a ms. petite!!!

Yesterday went karaoke @ neway with mich...Was months ago since we last sing together...Just the both of us and of coz, can't run away wif eating again!!!Love their chicken set...She's still the same old mich, and just reminds me of my first day in stella maris. She was the first girl who talked to me(the innocent new comer),was also the one who intro me to cc...WOoOOOOOoooooo!!!

The highlight of the week was the present from my beloved auntie!!!I guess she thinks I need to read more books instead of eating...So, she bought me this so out of my expectation book...What book???!!!*Drums Rollling...* The answer: 'Memoirs Of A Geisha' !!! Guess someone might be laughing now...I can't stop laughing but jsut think of you when I received it...Fate!!!Anyway,for the benefit of understanding the movie further, I'll read it...And of coz,i have started wif a few pages...And i kinda enjoy it actually...WooOOOOOOO...!!!

Yet another good one

2005-11-29T23:01:00.000+11:00

What??I'm only back home for a week??I thought I've been here for more than a month!!Yup, can't believe I actually left Melbourne just less than 10 days ago. There's still loads of fun waiting for me ahead.

Approaching the end of 2005. I tried to recall the many incidents which happened in the past 11 months. Did I achieved the goals I set at the beginning of the year? I guess I achieved a small part of it, and as usual postpone the rest to next year. Believe me, one of my blog entry will be Krystal's Goal 2006. True enough, many things happened this year. Happy and sad, all rojak into one.

At least I did something meaningful today. Helped mum in her hotel stage play today. Huahuahua...Magnums' upcoming annual dinner in Dec so they are rehearsing a play to perform on that day, hoping to win something out of it. Helped them to brainstorm on some ideas and add in some elements. AhHHHhh...at last I did something...It's funny to see the way they dance while hard selling Magnum as the most powerful gaming company in Malaysia. Everytime I go to the hotel, I find myself learning something new. It's the joyous part to see how mum cope with the scenarios in the hotel and the way her staff talk to her. Can see that they respect her very much. Guess experience and ability are the two main ingredients.

My main mission during this holiday is yet to be accomplish. Yes, the mission is to eat! I think I still have much room left in my stomach for more food. I don't mean to eat so much but all mums are the same, they love to stuff their children with loads of food, especially home cook food, just to show how clever they are in cooking. Well, at least for my mum!!! It was because of her, I received all this compliments from people. "Wow, you looked much nicer now. Look more fleshy and especially your face, contented and happy..." =.= What a different way to talk about my fats. AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA...Anyway, I'm not offended at all, in fact I feel darn happy coz at least people can see the result of my so important mission.

Mum and her colleagues went for food tasting in Hilton @ KL Sentral and she pulled me along. Apparently, Hilton and Le Meridien are attached together and I think they are the two most grand and classy hotels so far in KL. Just my opinion. The manager brought us around the hotel and Le Meridien has this vintage lebanese food restaurant where the place is subdivided into different sections for its privilege customers. Great view, environment, people, structure, and food! Had buffet in one of the restaurants. The unique part of it was the way they serve the buffet. All food are in dainty servings with a wide selection of cuisine. Sometimes the outlook of the food plays a big role in generating ones appetite. We get to choose our main course + buffet. Can you imagine how full can that be? VERY!!! In total, I had three rounds of buffet, then the main course, ended with more than 20 types of desserts. Contented! A perfect word to describe my stomach now. And my face maybe...

Currently my mum is complaining about my writings. =.= She say it looks like my nine year old cousins' writing. =.= Errrrrr...

What did I eat today?

2005-11-25T23:50:00.000+11:00

The title of this entry explains all. Yes, what did I eat today? For the first time after so many days, I was able to sleep until 9.30 am. Though the exact time I woke up was still 7 am. But at least, I managed to sleep later. Thanks to my mum, she cooked breakfast everyday and todays menu was- Fried Rice. Sedap!!!Damn nice ok...So thoughtful of her to cook a real big portion. I can't help but finished everything w two extra small bananas. Home bananas are always the best. For e first time I'm loving sweet bananas.

Went to Mid Valley w cc in the afternoon. Looking at the way he shop for things just highlighted the cute genes in him. Sometimes I just don't know wht to say when he suddenly throw out his laugh bombs. It amazed me coz he can still make me speechless w just one word and the way he look at me. Don't even have to say a word to melt my heart. I guess I'm glad to know tht I'm still going through this feeling. And he just know tht this girl can't run away from him, at least for now. *blush* Where else to find a guy who can pamper me as much as he does? Occasionally we do run out of topics and sometimes we don't feel like talking at all. What makes the r/s lasts for so long was e way he tackles it. The funny part was he don't have to do much to stir up my interest to start a conversation. I can't help but know tht I want this guy to be there for me whenever I see his confused face trying to do something to cheer me up. (I think sometimes he don't even know whether the things he did is right or not...) What I love most was the way I scared and make fun of him...It always makes him nearly pee out...

Just before we left mv, I told cc tht I want to eat Mc'D fries and nuggets. HUAHUAHUA...He looked at me with his big rolling eyes and shake his head while saying:"Sigh, look at you...Just love to eat..." In the end, of coz we bought it. WAAWAWA...Weh, the fei lou ate a few pieces as well ok...I didn't eat them by myself. Then, when I came home, guess what?!!!............Tada! I finished off the rest of the fried rice...wahahhahahahahhaha...cool hor!!! Then, dinner was served after one hour. I ate like nobody's business...Tee-hEEe...Saw a news on tv just now reporting an eating competition. The contestants have to eat 20 turkeys in order to win it. I can't believe people can take this kind of thing as competition. I think I'll puke to death if food is consume that way. Eeewwww!!!

Received my first christmas card from tiffany today. So thoughtful of her to send it back to KL. Though it was an early card, but perfect timing to make my day. It feels good to know tht someone fr the other side of the globe still keeps you in her heart. True enough, cards and letters from friends always works on me, creating the just perfect chemistry. Thanks dear! Hope to see you before I leave back to Melbourne.

It is true when people say:"No matter how heart broken you are now, your heart will continue to beat, and time will continue to tick, bad times will not be there forever, it will go."

The smallest thing which tickles my heart

2005-11-24T23:33:00.000+11:00

Sometimes I wonder what makes a person satisfied? Money? Food? Fame? Today, a simple chat with the person I appreciate dearly was more than enough to make my day. The thing which makes this chat an enjoyable one was the bond I experienced through the two hours talk. It's perfectly true when people say you don't have to be there to feel important, you don't have to show your love by saying I love you. You know the person is close to you when she is able to read your mind and say it out before you. It feels nice to know tht someone understands me more than myself and the funny part was it doesn't intimidates me at all. It was a good catch up although the last meet was actually not long ago. Hearing the familiar voice and laughter melts my heart. I never expect you to be one of those who can make my day with just one smile. Your smallest gesture is more than enough to steal my heart. Don't worry, I'll definitely say it to you again when I have the chance to see you. Knowing that you like to hear it from me. Prompt me!!!Just want to let you know that your presence are always felt.

The decision of not doing masters next year is slowly becoming firm. Many seniors of mine are saying that work experience is much more important. Their opinions makes much difference and adds to my confidence. Told mamie about my dreams in the future and through her face, I can see that she's really happy and glad that at least I have something in mind. All I want now is to finish off my last semester and throw myself into the society. Then, I'll be back to the world of Kuala Lumpur and work like a psycho for the sake of passion and money!!! Which means I'll be back to my parents and beloved friends' arms!!! If everything is smooth, I really can't believe my uni life will come to a full stop soon and it marks the end of my 3.5 years in Melbourne. I'll definitely miss everything in Melbourne and my 100% freedom as a uni student. Have to thank my mamies' colleagues for looking out some event companies for me.

Had dinner with mamies' colleague just now and it was good fun to hear how they work in the corporate world. Looking at the way my mum stir up the atmosphere just now, I was really impressed. She can just talk to people from the lowest position up to people like ceo in her company. And all of them just love her. She do know a lot of things and I can see that her colleagues really enjoyed her presence very much. Too much to learn from her. Also, through the dinner, I realized how important it is to be able to communicate to everyone, especially for my future career. If everything goes well, I'll be working next month. WoooOWw...~~~Cool Cool Cool!!!Hope so...

Whether or not?

2005-11-23T21:19:00.000+11:00

Since the day I came back, I've never once see a sunny day before. Has been raining for the past few days, which definitely adds to my greyish mood. Every morning I really hope that the day will be a sunny one, but not once it happens. It makes me feel strengthless and confused. -_-

Was chatting with mamie yesterday and we were talking about how few of my friends have start to earn a living in the society. Suddenly, she threw me this question: 'Girl, do you still want to study masters after your degree?' At that moment, I really want to answer her 'No'. But it just didn't came out from my mouth. All of a sudden, I just don't have the strength and heart to do masters anymore. Now I'm in the state of deciding whether or not to go further in my studies. By the time I finish my masters, it will be in year 2008. It'd be really late to start work, especially when the industry I want to go to really look more to work experience rather than academic qualifications. Hope my parents will support my decision if I choose not togo further. If I'm not doing masters, I'll be done by next June and start work immediately. Looking at a few production companies and tv stations now. I'm so gonna strive for my dream to work in HK and organize a big and world renowned fashion show or concert in the future. Then, I hope to open a Japanese restaurant when I have the money, maybe at the age of 40.

Met up with Jia and San today. Together with her bf Andy and CC. Whole KL was in big jam today. Guess it's one of the characteristics of KL. It's nice to see two of my closest friends again. It reminds me of our high school years in Sri Sentosa and how the few of us were still the young and innocent girl next door. It's hard to imagine most of us will be completing studies in a year or two and our topic will switch from which guy is cute or who you have a crush on to complaining about our psycho bosses, annoying overtime work and not earning enough to buy Zara or Kookai...^^

God!I'll be working real soon. And guess what, I'm really looking forward to it. Though reality is always different from what we expect, I'm all set to face the cruel working world and I'm going to have a great passion on what I want to be and do in the future.

P/s: Please do not pick on me if you hear me complaining about my work in the future. ^^Coz I think fire will definitely die down no matter how strong the flame is burning now.^^So I'll try my best and grab every oppurtunity to achieve my dreams before my passion is shower dry by dissapointment.

In my cosy camp

2005-11-22T20:08:00.000+11:00

Second day since I came back from Melbourne. It's still the same. The same feeling, the same thinking, and the same habit. Can't believe myself falling asleep right after my dinner at 7 pm!!!

I had my dinner and was sitting on the couch trying to belch while watching movie. (EeeWwwww)...After sitting there for abt 15 mins, I find myself yawning and my eyes were damn heavy to open any wider. Can't take it anymore and jsut fall asleep. Samore my mum cooked dessert after that. My mum cannot stand the way i eat and lie on the bed like a pig. 'Girl, u are going to have a bigger thighs than me very soon...' WOoooHhww...By the time it reached 10 pm, I find myself struggling to even sit still. All I can do was putting lots of pillow around me with the blanket cover up to my lips, and SLEEP!!!Worst thing was I automatically wake up at 7 am this morning. I'm in serious adaptation to the time diffrence. Woke up this morning, again, I ate!!! Wahahahahhaha...

CC came to my house today and I think he looks thinner than before. I have to thank him for telling me I had a bigger cheek than him!!! So nice of him!!! Was happy to see him, at least he managed to take my mind off something with his all time effective jokes and face. Sometimes I just enjoyed the feeling of seeing each other again after so long. Coz the relationship tends to see a stronger bond and emotions, well at least for us. Didn't do much as both of us were darn lazy to go anywhere. Went out to buy some groceries and then, wahahahhahaha, me myself also felt shy to say it. AHHAHAHAHAHHA...Coz my mouth was damn itchy so we drove to Mc'D for fries and nuggets!!!A large fries samore...The worst part was only me eating, he just watched. Then, when I came home, asked my maid to cooked me a noodle again.

2005-11-21T17:45:00.000+11:00

Yes!It's a fact that I'm finally back to KL after the many fakings. Arrived yesterday night together with Richie. I was really glad that Richie was with me yesterday throughout the journey, orelse I don't know how can I stand the loneliness in the flight. After saying goodbye to one of the most precious and closest person to you, it always feels good to have another close friend beside you, joking and chatting abt everything. Irene came to sent us off yesterday and maybe I wished she wasn't there to see me off. It was more than 10 times sadder than I first came to Melbourne two years ago when I was in the car saying goodbye to her and seeing her walk back alone. It was the second time I'm experiencing the same scene. When I turned back, all I can see is her back and I really hate to see it. As this time it's for real that I'm leaving and it also marks the end of my uni life with her in Melbourne. No more waiting for her @ rmit bookshop or sitting around the uni chairs to carry out our AJ task.

I'm back home now but I still feel her presence around me. Should I feel happy or sad? Because this means I'm really missing her badly. But I guess this is a must go through stage in life. No one will be there for you forever. The most important thing is you carry the person in your heart. Anyway, the buncho effect she had on me are now all stored securely in my brain. I won't allow myself to drop a single colour coz they are just too precious to lose even a drop. I'll reminisce them whenever I miss her. You know a friend is important when you want to say anything to them except for goodbye. This word is better left unsaid. It breaks my heart when I waved and say the word to u. Pumpkin, I miss you! Make sure you are in perfect condition when I see you again next time because I'm gonna hug you really hard with uncountable kisses on your face. So amke sure you can take it both physically and mentally. Prove it to me!!!*You must be darn looking forward to it now* Waiting huh!!! *Wink* I miss manja-ing you edi...and calling you pumpkin in a damn fud-hao way. But you just loveeee it...~~~

Anyway, woke up damn early this morning. 5am!!! Can you believe it?!!! Can't get myself to sleep well. And from the minute I woke up, my mouth just don't have the chance to stop unitl right now. Started off with nasi lemak coz I really craved for it. Then, ate lots of junk food and then chicken rice. I was basically lying on my bed like a lazy pig, eating and watching astro like a girl just released from the nowhere. Can you imagine how I look like when I was eating greedily while lying on the bed? I'm sure my pumpkin can imagine it. Did your mamie said not to friend with people who eats like that??!! 'My mamie asked me not to friend with...' =>

Didn't want to go out or meet anyone today. Havent' even see cc today. Just want to be alone and have a good rest before doing anything. That's why I'm blogging now! Currently, thinking what food should I eat later to satisfy my already contented face.

ps: The time stamp is all Australia time. As usual, I'm not going to change it. Makes me feel that I'm still in Melbourne... ^^

Now...~~~

2005-11-20T01:29:00.000+11:00

It's 1.30 am now,14 hours more before I board the MAS Airlines to head back to KL for a long vacation up to four months. The feelings I'm experiencing now is complicated. I am anticipating something yet holding back at the same time. As I've mentioned for many times, once I leave this time things will never be the same next year when I return as my beloved sleepmate, Val and my dearest pumpkin, Irene will not be here in Melb anymore. And I'm so gonna miss them!!!

Went to St Kilda beach on Monday because Sze wanted to try out this chocolate place. Five of us just pampered ourselves in this cafe with great food and environment. Enjoying our official uni vacation. St Kilda to me is different from the city itself. It feels like Gold Coast to me and I really like it although it was a sunny day. Another perfect day for sun bathing. Visited the beach and took some photos.

Met up with Elina on Wednesday. Had a almost three hours chatting session with both El and Irene. Talking about relationships, life, and how to cope with the future to be family life. Sometimes it's good to have different voices to comment on something. I personally find it useful and practical. Well, at least it works for me...*wink* Had a slow stroll with pumpkin back home and stayed just in front of the tram station to chat for a further 30 mins before going home. Been seeing her almost everyday for the past two weeks. Time passes so fast and now I'm preparing to go home.

Words cannot describe my feelings for this special pumpkin girl because she had been sparing so much time out to accompany me. The funny part was when we basically do nothing everyday. Just walk around, eat, sit, and Laugh!!! How cool can that be? VERY!!!I can't imagine myself doing all this if it's not her beside me. I'm so gonna miss her especially when I'm so used to seeing her everyday. It will take me a while to adapt to it. In a way, we are all looking forward to our Hong kong trip in January so I guess it helps to cure my missing-ness on her. But what am I gonna do after our HK trip and on 27th of Feb 2006?!! Sigh, I hope I won't cry when I return to Melbourne next year. Guess the thing I'm which will sadden me is the places we have been to with great memories. I'm so gonna miss the Famous Five gang. I might not say it often but your presence did make a whole lot of difference to me. Regardless of me entertaining you or likewise(Often me as the entertainer). It feels nice to have you packing up my luggage for me. When looking straight into your eyes, I can just see two words, which is Comfortable and Love. Do you realised how important is your status in my heart...~~~! ^^

Oh my god!We watched Saw II at Knox City yesterday!!!It's so damn disgusting but nice!!But I cannot imagine a person can actually think of a script like that. Apparently Saw I was directed by a RMIT graduate. WHOAOOAOAOAOA...Hope I'll not be a psycho next time. But I guess the meaning of this movie is quite meaningful as well. Teaching one to appreciate life and time. Had dinner at Bosh, a turkish-greek restaurant I guess. Nice!Exquisite!Hanging out with friends to me equals to fun. Carefree, pressure free, holiday mood, nice food, great jokes and etc...

Just came back from the city after walking the whole day. Went to Myer to admire their christmas thingy. Finally, after three years here I get the chance to see their christmas celebration and the four of us just took loads and loads of photos. Memories!!! How sad it is to say this will be the last night for our gang to spend time together in Melbourne. Anyway, we then headed to Federation Square to see the christmas tree. Fed Square is really nice especially during night time. Then, went to Sofitel to admire their toilet view on 35th floor. Nice, but not really really superb. Neway, was alraedy darn tired and came back home. Oh ya, bumped into Louisa today, my foundation classmate in RMIT. She still looks the same and darn friendly. And it makes me feel good when an old friend remembers you and actually calls you when they see you from far.

Currently checking my luggage jsut in case I left out something. Richie and I are going back together and I think that's a good thing. At least I know I'm not alone and I won't cry when I say goodbye to you guys.^^The previous trip when I went back to KL, I tried so hard to hold my tears and in the end, I still lost some tiny tears when I was in the cab.^^

Ps: Highly recommend this movie called 'Prime' by Uma Thurman. Love the people and the story. A mixture of comedy, love and dilemma.

Inner feelings...

2005-11-13T12:55:00.000+11:00

Have you ever felt that sometimes you just don't know where to head to and all you want is just someone holding your hand tight and guide you all way through? Currently in the dilemma of something complicated, which puts me into the state of making decision, which I doesn't want to.

Finally watched Elizabethtown on Friday and it turned out not as interesting as I thought it would be. The stars- Kirsten Dunst and Orlando Bloom were the two main attraction of the movie. Other than that, I think it just wins a credit from me. Confused whether the movie is about love, family, overcoming grief or failure. It's not that bad, just that I think many things were left unsolved and the flow was kind of jumpy.

Had dinner at this Japanese restaurant- Sumo. Had their Sumo Bento, quite nice though and tried my first ever sip of Sake. Thanks to Sze! Don't really like it though. Went clubbing with the guys later at night. I have to say my clubbing experience in Melbourne has never been a good one. Not a good one as in we always need to go to at least two to three clubs before we can really get in. Supposed to go to Heat, but then, it was closed down! Clubbing at Crown is no more fun without Heat around.(Well,at least for myself) Then, the gang decided to try out this clubbing place call Seven, where they have seven different rooms of music. Only to find out that we need membership to enter. Finally, came back to the city for Billboard. It's my second time there and actually I think the place is quite nice.

Lotsa people there and as usual, we started off with a drink to warm up. Had a shot of Bacardi with them, and it was the hardest drink for me. I didn't know that it taste so strong, and since it's a shot so I wallop it at one go. Whoaaa!!!Damn strong…I can feel the flame of fire at the tip of my throat and all the adrenalin rush through my body, especially my heart. WooHHooooo...It was more than tipsy and it was even before any dance. And thanks to Joseph, Irene and I got a free Corona from him. It definitely adds to my already 't.i.p.s.y' condition. It was a great night and my first time clubbing with the guys. A ticklish feeling ran through my nerves that night, which left me in the state of yet to find out. It's really nice to be out of control sometimes coz I know I won't have lotsa chances to do that in the future. Do it while you are young and when you have the boost of energy.

Came back around 4am and as usual I just love to call cc when I'm in the half sober condition. At moments like this, the magic phrase 'I Love You' always works differently. I felt more into it and all I wanted was him beside me right at that point. A short 10 minutes talk is more than enough for him to highlight his difference. The best part was he doesn't even have to say much to make me feel better. It always makes me feel the importance of having him beside me especially when I'm in situation like that. All you need is the strong arms which you trust the most to hold you tight and secure you with a hug. It feels good when you know there's this special someone you trust the most is always there for you.

I sometimes wonder how one can rely their emotional thoughts on another person so much. It's as though your body and soul just revolves around this special someone. All you want is to have this person right in front of you. The best part is this special someone doesn't have to say a word to make your day! I'm currently indulged with this feeling.

Finally...~~~

2005-11-11T12:30:00.000+11:00

For the first time in Melbourne my everyday life is to think of what to do and what to eat.Been on 100% holiday since two weeks ago and I have to say I've not feel so free before.For the past few days,I've been doing nothing productive except for going out to loaf around and eat.Spent most of my time with Irene as this time I'm really going home in a weeks' time.And it's true sometimes you don't have to do anything special in order to have fun,all you need is a good company and it is that which matters.I'm really impressed by friends who know what I'm thinking instantly without needing me to explain word by word and knows when to keep a quiet tone whenever I need to.It's hard to find someone who can share your ups and downs together...
Went to watched In Her Shoes finally...Love it because of Cameron Diaz and the way I understand the story.Just funny little things.It's about sisters in action and all of a sudden I wished I had a elder sister to take care of me.Currently I'm waiting to watch Elizabethtown and Prime by Uma Thurman.WooHOOooo...Able to catch them just bfore I leave back to KL.

Highlight of the week was the news of Twins 2006 Concert in Hong Kong.YAY!!!Their concert will be held on the 4th to 6th of January 2006.And I'll be catching them on the 6th of January.Just in time to watch their last show(at the moment).I can't be more excited than that...Also,special hug to Franco who will be keep track of their tickets for me.You're the best,Hee Hee.Franco told me that he felt fat when he's in HK.I can't imagine myself standing in the middle of all the Hongkie girls,as though I'm the incredible hulk...Sigh...~~~But still,I can't wait to be there...!!!Hey there ppl,thanks for watching Twins with me!!!

Was too bored yesterday night and again,Val and I took crazy photos using her webcam.And suddenly I realised we have been sleeping together for almost half a year.(Sleeping together huh...)Time flies and I know I'll miss this girl a lot next year...Not having someone sleeping beside me and tidy up the bed every morning.No more Val using her laptop at night,doing all her funny and weird pose when she's exercising etc...Sometimes these feelings will just reveal itself without giving you any notice.I'll miss you very much k,dear...

Quiet...

2005-11-07T11:39:00.000+11:00

Sometimes it's really true when people say you won't feel it until it really happens.This saying match perfectly with the leaving of Franco back to Hong Kong on Saturday.Woke up early on Saturday to carry out my special task-'The Surprise' which I've been waiting for the past two weeks.I was happy with the reaction and proud of myself for being able to hide it.Thanks to Haw Chuan for his harmless 'white lie' as well...

Then,headed to Footscray with Franco and the rest to pick up our sashimi and of coz not to forget, our favorite barbeque pork shop for lunch.At night,we had our sashimi feast and 'surprised' Nelson with a birthday cake.The fun part was when we(Franco,Cookie,Val,Irene,Richie,Sze,Nelson, and I) start to take weird photos in Val's webcam.Sometimes,I think it's jsut so warmth to do something together,clinging and tangling on each others neck and take insane photos together.It was great fun!However, the sad part was when it's time for Franco and Cookie to leave to the airport.Though my other friends are still in Melbourne,and they are just going back to HK for a holiday,I felt the difference instantly.Maybe because Franco was the one who accompanied me throughout my three years in Melbourne and of coz he's also the one who bitch around with me in class.Every morning,I'll receive his msn messages saying:"What are you doing,Hee Hee?" or "Good morning,Peach..." Was pretty sad when I start receiving messages from friends saying goodbye to me...Maybe because I was always the first to leave back to KL,but now I'm basically the last among them...I can't imagine myself going back for good and I'll go back to this cage of mine in KL,busy with my work and compaining about my boss etc in the future...

I was lying on my bed yesterday and this strong feeling just rushed through me.I felt so darn comfy and secured in the apartment I'm staying in now.All of a sudden,I have a feeling that this is my home and it's where I find security.But what about my house in Malaysia?After some thoughts,I finally found the answer to it.The house in Melbourne is the place where all my friends here meet up for parties and dinners.The place is filled with memories,fun,laughters and friends from different countries,backgrounds, and cultures.How can I not have special feelings and deep emotions to this house???Melbourne is also the place where I enjoyed all my 100% freedom and the place where I learnt how to be independent.End of the year holiday was always the anticipating moment for me,but this is the first time I'm not looking forward to the break.It's a break that marks the change.Settings and all will be different after this break and it marks my last half a year in Melbourne next year.

Three years in Melbourne have changed Krystal in many ways,regardless of physically or mentally.Physically is obvious because it's all shown on my face-'My full moon rounded face'...The not so obvious part might be the amount of memories and experiences in Melbourne.I'll only realised how much I miss and love Melbourne when I'm back in KL.I feel it since my first trip back to KL three years ago and I feel it now.This place shaped me in many ways.It's always a dilemma when aunties and uncles start to ask me:"Do you like Malaysia or Melbourne more?"It's amazing all of us came from different parts of the globe,and chose Melbourne as the country to study in,then happily made up our minds that RMIT University is our target to achieve our degree,and destined to bumped into each other without any prediction.This is the art of friendship.Once happened,there will never be an end.They go away at some point,but will definitely stays in your heart forever.

Currently:

Excited to see CC in less than two weeks time- He's always one of the main reasons to why I'm looking forward to go home so much.He does have the power to determine my mood.Just can't resist everything about him.(Krystal,you're in deep danger...Wake up!Wake up!~~)*Wink*WoooOOooo...!!!xoxo~~~miss him lots!!!
Excited about my upcoming HK trip in January- A trip which we have been talking about since the beginning of the year.Can't believe it's coming so soon.And I'm hoping to watch Twins concert in HK as they will have one in January.(Thanks to all my beloved friends who will be going with me without needing me to even ask whether they want to go...)How can I not love them?!!!!!!!
Excited about eating and shopping in HK- WAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!~~~Can't wait man!!!Walking along all the Tsim Sha Tsui area,Times Square...etc...And most importantly,Ar Sa's boutique!!!wOOooooo...And EATTTTTTTT~~~!!!That's what I live for...!!!

The precious one

2005-10-30T16:38:00.000+11:00

Currently I'm feeling really loved by someone who I treasure as much and love the same way as the person does.Have you ever felt so pampered by this special someone who is as excited as you when she sees that you're happy?Your day is like her day.

I was so darn touched when I heard her saying this is the day I've been waiting for and I've been doing it for months.Having late nights and put away everything just to wait for this day to come.I was given this special gift from a friend for my birthday present yesterday.I have no idea she's secretly making it for months and I have to say the present is my best birthday present for the past 21 years."A gift made out of effort can enver compare to something that can be bought with money."I can see through her eyes that she really treasure our friendship very much and without having me to say,I treasured her as much!!!She already established a VIP status in my heart and I knew instantly she's not one of those that will go away.You were always there regardless of small,big and of coz significant event.

I read each and every word you wrote and I'm really impressed and touched by yr good memory and detailed feelings.Knowing you,you'll only choose to remember things that you want to.I'm happy to be a part of it.True enough,it felt as though you're beside me when I was reading it.How cool can that be when we have reach the stage where you don't have to be physically there for me to feel special.That's what I call true friends.Thank you for the 200%effort in making my 21st an extra extra special one.You just know how to make my day.(Likewise^^)Having you beside me is more than enough to make my day.You made me feel special,pampered,precious and remembered!Thanks for giving me this extraordinary feeling and privilege.

The best has come...^^*Wink*^^

Birthday Muffins

2005-10-28T22:30:00.000+10:00

The after birthday party effect is still staying...

Yesterday was the screening for our short film.As usual,most of us attended and after months of hard work,finally we see the results and that was what I've been looking forward to.Sometimes I can't believe that I actually know how to produce a film,eventhough it's a short one and a really amateur one.Of coz,the success of it gathered the hard work and time of all members.

In total,I think there's more than 15 short films.Ours was scheduled towards the end,which adds to my nerves coz the others look so professional.I'm impressed that 2 years of tv production did teach me much about producing and editing.And it's of coz my favorite subject of all.This will be my last production and I'm so gonna miss it.Our short film 'True Identities' finally appeared and I'm really happy about it eventhough it's obvious that we still need to touch up.I personally love the ending.The song itself adds so much to it.I've been listening to the song over and over again and the scenes just keeps appearing in my mind.

Met up with Haw Chuan,Chit Wai and Joseph for lunch today at South Yarra.Had some great talks about Chit Wai's bungee jump,snorkelling,canoeing and other activities.You name it,he play it!!!He jsut love challenge.Expected it to be a quite interesting meet up,but what i didn't expect was yet another birthday song and celebration.Haw Chuan baked 11 muffins as birthday cake and there goes my third birthday song.He's the first guy to bake something for me.I have to say the feeling is kinda different.Thanks for the effort and creativity,Hawch^^!

My 21st Birthday

2005-10-26T17:11:00.000+10:00

My once in a lifetime 21 year old celebration turned out to be a really special and unforgettable day for me!I am touched.I am too happy.And I am feeling too loved and pampered by my friends!This birthday is definitely one of my best and most unforgettable celebration..*double WINK*I can still feel the level of excitement when I'm typing now.Looking at all the things in front of me...

Danger:Readers might have the risk of getting tired eyes after reading this entry.Because it's a really long one!!!But I have to spell out everything in detail.Read at your own risk!!!

Kicked off with a nice dinner at South Yarra on Monday with the whole gang.Thanks to all of them as some were really sweet and nice to attend the dinner,left aside their assignments and high fever.Was really touched when they brought out the cake and Val arrived just on time.This girl came late and all of us was wondering what happened to her.Guess what?!!She went around to look for flowers and there I go,my first bouquet of roses this year.Awwww,isn't she sweet??Thanks ya dear!After the dinner,we(Sze,Richie,Val,Irene and Franco) went to 'Cookie' for a drink.It's actually one of my fav bars in Melbourne.Anyway,we ordered a few types of cocktail from this very hot guy(I think),and spent time chatting and playing around for 2 hours.I was alreay half-sober by the time we reached home.It was around 11.30 and they count down to 12 am and *YAY* All of them wished me by lying on top of me-Pancake Stack!That's the heaviest pancake stack i've ever experienced.But anyway,Thank You Guys!!!

The fun continues...

Yesterday,whichwas the actual day of my birthday,woke up quite early coz Irene asked me out for breakfast.Just before that,Val left early for work and when I woke up,i saw all this small notes aorund the house asking me to collect all 21 pieces of notes.Again,it's from Val.She wrote some message on every piece of paper and it comes up to 21 pieces.Nice!But till now,I only have 12 pieces with me,9 more hiding around the house.Then,Irene came right on the dot and I saw her holding a bouquet of flowers and a box of chocolate in her hand.Honestly,I din know what to say.All I can do is to give her a real tight hug.Had a warm and nice bacon and egg breakfast with her and spent the rest of the hours taking photos and visited one of the catholic church in Melbourne,which we wanted to go for long.Sometimes,you just don't need to think of extra interesting activities to make the day happier or so.All u need is a good company beside.Then,went back to the city at around 1.30 to meet up with Franco and Sze coz they were having this secretive plan to bring me to somewhere.True enough,we came to this special cafe with lots of antiques in it.Nice environment with great friends,but not the waitress definitely...Walked around for a little while and headed back to the city to buy food for dinner at Franco's house.It's a hot pot feast!!!huahuahua...

All of us were so tired but still they were sweet enough to prepare everything without having me to worry about.I went back home to sleep until they called and allowed me to go up to his house.I knew something was going to happen because that was what we did for Irene's bday,but trust me,no matter how much u know there will be a surprise,u won't be able to guess it right.

When I opened the door and walked in,with all the background music,the place looked different.I saw all this old photos of mine sticked on the wall all the way from the entrance to the end of the corridor.I saw my most lame photos right up to my latest photos with the gang.Can't believe they even put chuan's and my photo in.The house was decorated with balloons,banners and crepe papers.Our pretty Sze bought me a champagne coz she said it's necessary for me to pop the champagne.WooHoooo...And she even make her own cocktail for us.I used to not like to talk about the pressies I received coz I think it's personal,but for this year,I really have to spell each and everything out.Coz I'm really tooo touched by what they did for me!!!

Enjoyed the hot pot so much and after that,it's the highlight of the day turn.I was told to sit down queitly and listen to Franco's speech.He wished me and said lotsa funny stuff.He calls it a ceremony.After blowing the candle and cut the cake,the fun begins.The first surprise was Val's piggy card!!!She took the time and effort to make a real big piggy card with their wishes on.It's really creative and I definitely love it!!!

Then,it was Irene's turn to give me the present on behalf of the gang.It was something I wanted for years-Swarovski Puzzle Piece.I was damn stunned when i saw it coz i din expect them to buy this present.I thought that's the end, but NO!!!You thought it will be so simple??!!NO!!!They just won't let me breathe and wont let the surprises stop.I was already very touched by their present,but when Franco took out this present and said it was from Josephine(my foundation friend + idol of mine),I nearly cried.Coz she's a busy girl,but still she took the time to meet up with Franco to passed him the pressie.And Franco as well is so busy with his own assignments,still he squeezed his time for me.

Then,he continued by taking out another present.And this time,he said it was from the two most important people in my list...Scratching my head to think who...I can't believe it when he said it was from chee chuan and his sister michelle.He actually contacted both of them and asked discussed with them to do something for me.It's a card made by chuan and michelle and Franco printed it off.I cried,but of coz no one noticed it coz i was keeping my head down,controlling all my tears.I was really really touched!!!They are still trying to test my ability to hold back my tears.

The last surprise was this cd they made for me.What's so special about this cd?VERY SPECIAL!!!Coz each of them sang a song and they recorded in it.The singers are namely: Franco,Cookie,Scoty,Yakult,Miuky,Richie and the very cool guitarist Nelson.Each of them sang a song for me,of coz one of the songs was by Twins...ahahhahaha...Franco and Nelson even changed the lyrics.And damn it,the songs are damn touching.I don't even dare to look straight into their eyes when they were playing the song,i think i'll cry out loud.Last but not least,thank you Sze for making the mango pudding...It's superbly nice!!!

That's the end of my birthday report.I felt so loved and pampered!!!You all make a difference to this special day and i can't think of a word to describe how touched i felt!!!Just in case you want to know,I nvr once felt like crying on my birthday except for this year...I'm still in yesterday's damn high feeling.And i'm proud to say i have a bunch of super duper loving and happening friends!!!It will definitely be my best birthdays!!!

A million dollar present cannot beat the presents I received yesterday.The cards,the efforts,the cd...and most of all,the FRIENDS i have!!!There's no reason for me to ask for more when I already have all this great friends standing beside me whenever i need them...

Melted heart...

2005-10-24T00:05:00.000+10:00

Have you ever wonder how amazing it feels when someone is able to melt your heart?I've been experiencing this superb feeling this two days.Right now,I'm indulged by this feeling.By looking at their killing smiles and gestures just melts my heart straight away.Everytime when I'm feeling really strengthless and tired,all I have to do is look at them and I'll be recharged.

I'm really into the people who can melts my heart.Regardless of friends or watever,I'll be all down once I feel the melting in process.Or actually another way to describe is the sense of touched by someone.Touched by the things they did for u.Don't you think 'they' are the two best feelings ever created??!!

Currently: *Eyes Rolling* Wondering whether the things that i do have ever melt any of my friends heart before? *Eyes continue to roll*

I need to say...

2005-10-19T21:30:00.000+10:00

As mentioned before,the atmosphere of people leaving soon is getting stronger until I felt hard to believe everytime i think of it.I guess I just need to post this entry after reading June's and Franco's entry.Through their entries,I can feel how much and deep they feel for their friends and the word 'separation' is just too harsh for neither one of us to experience.My heart will break into pieces everytime i come across scenarios like that.

Sometimes I just hate to mention things like who's leaving,and who's not going to see who in the future etc...It's jsut a way to avoid those unwanted issues.But I guess I do need to mention about it now since playing with words is just the simplest and most direct way to express your missing towards a person.

Things was never the same from the moment I made my decision.Yes,going home is of coz a looking forward thing to me coz it means I'll get to see cc real soon*Wink*. But the most heart broken part was when you see the pair of eyes saying:"I'm gonna really miss you." All I can do is to hug you as tight as i could and say:"Me too." Really,I've never had this kind of feeling before,and you did make a difference to that.You almost made me cry that day.From your reaction,I knew instantly you are one of those that will not go away.Adds to it,you really looked damn vulnerable and looks like people in need of tender loving care since then.

Sometimes it's really the environment that makes people feel so deep about something.The other day i was on the tram and as the people and cars,and the streets passed by,suddenly i felt so close to this place where i've been living for almost 3 years.Instantly i felt like crying.It reminded me of my first day in Melbourne,the scenarios of my foundation mates queing to register for class,for that was the first time all of us met.And guess what,all of us have been friends since then and the person who accompanied throughout this 3 years was Franco(bitch of the century was the name we used to address each other for 3 years).Never thought that he will become my first really close guy friend.We'll still be seeing each other for at least half a year,i really can't imagine how would it be like when i'm leaving melbourne for good.

I knew instantly that things will never be the same from the moment i board the plane this time.But it definitely has to go on.I guess what everyone needs to do now is stop counting down how many days more left etc.It's not New Years' Eve or Christmas time.All it does is add salts to the wound.Enjoy the time left with your friends and leave down as many memories as you can with them.Eg:Take loads of photos.At least you have the photos to cry and reminisce about when you miss this special friend.Show them to your grandchildren and tell them proudly:"Hey,that's po po's uni life...Look at all the cool friends I have!!!"

Currently:The heavy rain outside has cover up the shower of tears in my heart recently...

My weekend

2005-10-16T20:51:00.000+10:00

Been having this mix feelings lately,which requires me to make some sort of decision...And finally,I've made up my mind and will not change it anymore...

Went to the RMIT Volunteer Night on Thursday to receive my certificate as a volunteer for student rep...It was much more grand than the previous year and it was not until that night i realized RMIT really does have a lot of volunteers...Guess i wana participate more in those activities next year...Nothing really interesting except for some of the food served that night..wOOoooo...

On Friday,was supposed to walk around to get some presents for friends.Walked for 2 hours and it was alraedy quite tiring,maybe bcoz i was not in the mood to shop that afternoon.So ended up eating at Brunetti's,while enjoying the sunny day wif this special person...Then,guess wat!!!I spent almost 2 hours hanging around at this special baseball glove chair...Just sitting there without doing anything.How cool huh!!!Can't be bothered wif the awkward eyes thrown at us by the people passing by...Then,had dinner at Ying Thai and headed off to watch Jen's performance at Melbourne Uni.It was great!But some of the dance were quite boring,talking about human body languange and body art...

Didn't do much on Saturday,just went out to meet up wif a friend and had dinner with Stephanie.It was a good one because we basically just crap about stuffs while enjoying our very big portion dinner.Then,went to Max Brenner!!!The Bald Man!!!huahuahua...Had dark chocolate Suckao!!!huahuahua...Sipping mua hot chocolate and just look at the people around there,it's really cool!!!

Today was the last day of my film shooting.This is my last production for the course.No more tv for next year,i'm gonna so miss it.Set out nice and shine to South Bank and prepared ourself for the shooting.It was much more organized than the first shooting,but still there's always these technical problems and some discussions...But overall i think it was really cool.Mainly bcoz we have two great actors-Simon and Maryanne!!!They are really cool peoplezzzzzz...Had dinner with Maryanne and i really like her...hhahahahhahaha...She's a Italian girl with great smile.I'll faint if she look straight into my eyes with her trademark smile.huahuahua...Just exaggerating...Not only that she's pretty,but also her personality and her pair of eyes is just so attractive.It was great chatting wif her and see how passionate she is towards acting.The best part was her hug.It was the best hug I've ever experienced, a hug which melts my heart instantly.^^AwwWwww...Actually,she does melts my heart in many ways...^^huhuhu

SwwoOshhh,another day...

2005-10-14T10:15:00.000+10:00

Last Sunday was great fun coz it was the first day of our short film shooting.Arrived early in the morning at Steph's house to set up and was so damn excited about it.Actors arrived on time,both of them were so cute and friendly.And guess wat,they clicked!I think the guy is interested in the girl.Now i understand why a film can go on shooting for 2-3 years in real life.Coz when you're in the production,u tend to make the best out of it.Imagine our 3 minutes short film wif around 10 peanut scenes took us 12 hours to shoot,and there's still another day of shooting on this coming Sunday.

After all our essays and test, we decided to head for a movie on Tuesday. 'The 40 year old virgin'!!!WoooHOoooo...The name itself was more than enough to attract us to watch it. And i think it's really funny and 'educational'. Well,at least for myself...LOL...Sometimes you just need this kind of movie to release your laughs to the max, and leave your worries behind.

Sometimes i just find this word so intimidating and scary-TIME.It can pass by so fast without you realizing it at all. Can't believe that i have offcially ended my 13 weeks of classes this semester and that's it!Felt as though i just came back from home the first day and patiently waiting for time to pass.Guess it was all bcoz our so interesting entertainment and activities this semester.Can't even catch up wif the pace time runs.Looking back at my diary,i realized how much i've done wif my friends and the only thing left in my small little brain are 'Memories'!!!Such a beautiful word to describe my feelings right now...Most of them are memories of joy for sure...It's funny how diary can bring you back to the scenes and reminds you of everything.Especially when you have notes from friends etc...Eg: 'Dinner wif the gang at 7','BBQ dinner @ 7','Clubbing @ Heat','Drinking session wif ski trip gang'...etc...I'm sure it will be tears of joy when i leave Melbourne for good.^^I guess one day it is jsut so necessary for me to compile the things i did in Melbourne together and keep as my own reference in the future.Can't believe that my uni life is goin to end really soon.And I'm just so proud and glad to tell everyone that my uni life had been a really positive and memorable one.

Thanks guys for filling my uni life wif sweet Memories!!!

RMIT Communication Ball 2005

2005-10-08T15:29:00.000+10:00

As i've mentioned,Thursday was the RMIT Comm Ball...I was so excited for the ball,so i kicked off the thursday early in the morning to double checked my law essay before handing in...It's really not a good essay,but I think i've tried my best so no point worrying about it now...Coz i have much more things to do on that day...which is the BALL!!!hahahhahahahaha...

After TV class,headed straight back home to take a shower and rushed off to the salon to get my hair done...I'm happy about the outcome and by the time i finished,there's only less than an hour left for me to get ready...Coz *eHemmm* our limousine will be arriving at our doorstep at 6.15 pm...hahahahahhaha...YES!The seven of us decided to pampered ourself by hiring a limo to fetch us to the venue...How cool huh!!!Wore my pinky dress and start to put on makeups...Everyone looks great that day,the first to arrived at our house was Franco...He got his hair done too and i think he looks great in his suit and new tie...Then,our Richie arrived,to iron his clothes...=.="""But he looks cool in tie and suit too...and he wore my all time fav brand-Polo shirt...hahahahhaha...Then,the girls arrived and i think all of them looks really gorgeous...And i really do mean very very pretty!!!Everyones' in their heels and best dress...Left the apartment sharp 6.15...Only to realized that the limo was late!!!!!!But anyway,everything just paid off when we saw this white grand limo in front of us...Gawd!The chauffeur has this Italian look...In his fifties i guess...But i think he's damn cool too...Name's Peter...

We were like Wah,wah,wah when we boarded the limo...And we had a complimentary bottle of champagne...He drove us around the city before going to the venue-South Atlantic Wharf.The journey was fun,only some occassional dizzy...Maybe bcoz of the champagne and we were all starving!!!Took loads of photos as usual.When we arrived at the venue,we were so reluctant to leave the car coz no one was there to witness our coolness!!!HAHAHhahahaha...But once we opened the door,all this students in cab start to arrived...And we were like:"Envy huh,only cool people like us comes in limo..."HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA...Neway,was a great experience...I used to be the person trying to peeped inside the limo unintentionally last time,but this time,i'm enjoying the moment of being peeped...^^

It was a masquerade ball so some people came wif different and very unique masks...The atmosphere was so different and i enjoyed the feeling when we entered the ball...Everyone's standing,chatting in their most glamour posture...Guess what,the thing which attracted us the most was the spring rolls!!!Our table was really good,right in the center...Most of us drank...I supposed that's soemthing which you must do when you're in a ball...I had only two glasses of champagne and i'm alraedy at the top of my brain...Duno why but mayb champagne takes a heavier effect on me...Guess i just can't tolerate with hihg alcohol...Needed the help of my beloved friends to make sure i walk straight...huahuahua...That't when u see the power of friends huh...Sort of dance for a while at the dance floor and headed off to the after party...The party bus was sooooooo coolllll!!!KEWL!!!Most of us were damn high,especially when we heard the music in the bus...Everything was great,but the after party place was not too nice...which was quite *potong stim*...^^I guess the music played were not our cup of tea...After all,we were quite tired and left at aroun 1 o'clock...

I really enjoyed myself at the comm ball...And i guess all of us did too...!!!It's definitely once in a lifetime thing where u have to experience during your uni days...Will upload the photos soon in flickr...huhuhu...

Special quote to u,thanks for the "milk&dark raisins":
'Great minds think alike'

I guess everyone's excited about the ball coz i can predict that it will be a great nite...Was thinking of renting either the pumpkin carriage or a J.Lo's limousine to fetch all of us to the venue...wahuahuahua...It's my first time attending a uni ball..And it's a Masquerade Ball!!!All the cross culture thingy and just enjoy the fun wif the coolest gang around,and there will be a after party...WOoooooooo...Oh ya,i spent three days eyeing, trying, and hunting for dress...Thanks to Elina and Irene,sacrificing their time for me,sitting in the fitting room for more than an hour to see which dress fits me well...Even the woman working in the fitting room recgonised me and said:"Oh dear,tell me how many days will u take to choose your dress when u get married??Tell me!!!" AHAHhahahahahahhaha...Sigh,people like me wif no perfect body shape will have to rely on the dress to createthe false 'illusion'...wahwawawwa...OooOoohhh...

Oh ya,a friend told me that there might be some potential terrorists in Melbourne city lately. Just a reminder, friends in Melbourne just take extra care...Whether or not it's true,just be careful when u walk around...

Happy Birthday San a.k.a Jasper!!!Jiak Jiak!!!As i've said,stay young k...and maintain yr jasper cool character eventhough u wana grow up...Coz i'll be Jiaking u whenever i see u...Miss u loads...Love ya!!!Happy BBbbbuurrrpppdayyy!!!*Wink Wink*

2005-10-03T00:30:00.000+10:00

Time to wrap up my holiday...It has been a really full and utilised week...Full utilised the week by filling in loads of activities...I'm so proud of myself...wahahhahahahahha...

Neway,just crapping...As usual,met Joseph for lunch on friday and he brought us to this economic rice place for lunch...*DUH* Aint too bad but i guess i wont take a tram all the way to eat it...Once in a while is fine...He sort of insisted on bringing us around the grammar school nearby to have a look...The students are on hols...*DUH* I guess he just love to see us more so he suggested to eat the egg tart in chinatown...huahuahua...which i tink instantly he grabbed our interest,coz eating is our priority...!!!He spent us the egg tart and i tink it's nice...!!!huhuhu...Roamed around the city to hunt for dress after the lunch...Was supposed to do some work but then,again,after lunch is always a good excuse to slack off a bit...A good company explains all!!!Met up wif Haw Chuan and his family for dinner at Lygon...Very special pizza place,whereby they serve pizza dolce...Especially attracted by their mix chocolate pizza...huahuahua...And from the outlook of the shop,it seems like an abandoned house...But guess wat,good things always hide themselves...Thanks ya Howch for your Haigh's chocs...I'll follow your instructions for sure...^^One hour one choc...

I wonder when will i realised the consequences of slacking and procrastination...Coz on Saturday my plan was supposed to be reading books and write my law essay,then head to the Gorgeous fashion show in the afternoon...But then, i woke up early in the morning to watch dramas and eat...=.="""What a good girl huh!!!Thanks to Val we got the tickets for free...Thanks dear!!!I tink the event was alright...Sometimes,i jsut enjoy the moments whereby u just sit down wif a fren for no reason and crap about all sorts of things...No serious topics on,but just loads of insane and funny acts and jokes...So cool huh!!!It's not easy to bumped into the 'clickable' person no matter how hard u tried... huahuahua...Proud to say that i found my 'click'...

Today,met up wif Selina for lunch...Finally!!!hahahahhahaha...Both of us stood in front of the restaurant,waiting for it to open...Was so embarrassing,but then we had a great talk...jz catching up and talks about our future and the good ol' times...I'm sure most of my friends kno that i used to admire her very much...ahahhahahahahha...Coz i tink she's really cool!!!Then,went to Myers wif Franco and Sze to continue my journey on hunting for dress...tried on a couple and cut down to three...I'm still deciding which to buy...Sigh...huahauhua...Damn syok when i ran in and out of the fitting room to show them how i looked like...Then,went to the salon to get my hair done...Finally!!!huahuahua...no more blondy...whihc makes me look more descent...(although all the while i'm already a very descent girl...wahahhahahahahha)People reading this plz do not vomit in fron of the computer...wakakakakkakakaka...

Right now i'm feeling really tired coz i jz finished drawing the storyboard wif richie...A lot more work to do...

My new hobby

2005-09-29T23:31:00.000+10:00

My new hobby is...

Cycling!!!

After so long, finally we went cycling...Yes, cycling in Melbourne!!!Today was not the perfect weather to go cycling but overall i rate this activity 8 out of 10...It's really a great experience. I was worried that i can't even ride on a bicycle after sooooooo long...but guess wat, i went on pretty well...The cute guy at the bike hire place offered us a good deal for the bike. 25 bucks for the whole day. And we basically make used of the bicycle very much. But then my mum said it's expensive. Rm 75 for a bicycle??!!!!wahahahhahahahaha...She can't do anything, coz i've paid for it!

Ok, we got our bike and cycle all the way to Botanic Garden. Can see that how often we exercise bcoz i can feel myself strengthless by the time we reached the second slope. But i'm really impressed by the amount of strength and determination we have. Coz our routes were from Federation Square-Botanic Garden-Yarra River-Dockland-La Trobe Stree-Around Fitzroy Garden-Federation Square...And for those not living in Melbourne, i can assure u that it sure is a very very long and tiring route.Minus all the up and down slopes...I nvr thought that i would be one of the cyclists on the street coz we cycled on the bicycle trail like nobody's business...I guess the cars were scared by us...

We went to this place called Limonette in Dockland for gelati...The atmosphere in Dockland is just soooo different and relaxing...Living in a luxurious environment,facing the sea and fresh air...The price of all these nice experiences is the very tired and painful body...Can feel that my bones are crackling and basically my whole body is so tired now...Went straight to bed once i got home...But still, i'm in love wif cycling now...A pretty good sport besides the troublesome trails etc...Coz in Melb, cyclists are not allowed to cycle as though you're in Malaysia...wahahahhahahahahahaha...I learnt a new word today'Cyclist Dismount'...woOOhhhooooooo...Felt like we were in a different world when we cycle the bike with the quite funny helmet on...'Feels Free'!!!

Unofficially,i think today is the last day of my holiday because usually thursday is my last day of class, leaving me wif fridays free...And i'm so proud to announce that i have not start my law essay at all...weeEeeeee...wahahhahahahahaha...So cool huh!!!I think so...There's so much more to do coz i havent get myself a dress for the upcoming communication ball,which is one week away from now...So cool huh!!!

ppSstttt,i think my face is getting bigger...wahahahahhahahha...some of my friends jsut loveeeee it whenever i say this...THANKS!!!

Tulips

2005-09-27T22:39:00.000+10:00

Sunny sunny day today!!!It's quite hard to get such a fine day in Melbourne lately...Just a perfect day for outing.We went to the tulip farm today.Took a train to Lilydale,which took us approx an hour.Was so excited when the train finally arrived at Lilydale station.Lunch was at first one of the highlights for the day but guess wat,it turned out to be the worst thing of the day.Walked for more than half an hour to looked for the place but still,FAILED!!!Was so guilty for making them walked alll the way up and down the hill...Then,we missed the bus which we supposed to board for tulip farm...Met this cab driver who talks a lot and he dun really kno the roads...But everything paid off when we saw the super duper colorufl + big TULIPS!!!Up to more than 10 colors and they are all huge!!!Love the mixture of red and yellow the most...Felt as though i'm in those fairytales when i saw the rows of tulips lying in front of me...Took lots of lame photos and nice ones of coz...And headed back home...Can't be bothered about our pose etc during our train trip back...Was so damn tired...Slept throughout the journey...

The Belgian Waffle at flinders street station prompted my appetite for waffle...Smart pumpkin can smell wat my arse wants just by looking at my face...So we headed to Max Brenner for waffle...My first time eating and i think it's nice...ooOOOohhh,yummy...!!!Wanted to have another piece but then decided not to eat for the benefit of my face...And prevent my poor face from molesting by others anymore...huahuahua...

Yesterday,we went to Dealesford for spa...Eleven of us went and our very careful driver was Tony...Poor guy,he drove throughout the journey...*Clap for him*The spa was not as good as we expected it to be...Just a normal one...And we went to the lavender farm as well...Entrance fee was only 3 bucks...But i really can't smell any lavender at all,besides seeing all the donkeys and bees flying around...

Communicaition Ball coming up sooonnn...woOooooo...needs to hunt for dress!!!Can't wait to cycle on thursday...woOOooooo...~~~

HolidayySss...

2005-09-25T23:25:00.000+10:00

I'm on holiday!!!One week sem break is not that long actually,but at least i can have some fun and do something new.Although i still have loads of tv stuff and essay waving hard at me...=.="""

Neway,kicked off the first day of holiday by having dinner over Franco's house. Cooked some nice dishes to filled up our hungry and greedy stomach, and called it a day...On Friday nite, we went to a night club in South Yarra to support one of our friends- Jen's first paid gig. Sze and Franco helped us to apply some eye shadows and make up on to try out the effect. (Just to avoid too many people fainting on the day of our communication ball...LOL) The club was nice actually, ain't too bad. And guess what?!!Surprised for the day was bumping into my college classmate, the hyper duper Ve Leong!!!Have not seen him for two years, still he's so playful. I was going to by a drink and suddenly he just pulled me over, it thought it's one of those drunk man or watever, mana tau Ve Leong pulak...ahahahhahahaha...scared me!!!Was so happy to see him,reminds me of how he used to pin my head on the wall and his star wars theme song...Good Ol' Days...!!!

Then, on Saturday we went to the Melbourne Show. Just bfore that, we ate Carol Seng's Homemade Mooncake for an afternoon sweet...^^Made specially by Irene's mum to her beloved daughter...And we were lucky to be one of the 'eater'...especially like the shanghai dumpling mooncake, and of coz the 'bing pei' as well...WoooooHOoooo...Thanks aunty~~~!

As usual, Melbourne Show is all about rides and showbags...Nothing that special actually...But it's just for the sake of atmosphere and just enjoy the food...Was wondering whether our purpose is to eat or to admire the shows. Trust me, i've never see so many chickens locked in the cage before...Maybe i should correct myself, they are roosters or hens instead of chickens...huahuahau...and they stinks!!!And the cattles are sooooooo huge...and their poos stinks twice!!!

At night, we went to watch a stage drama- '12 Twelfth Night'. In support of few of our friends coz they were involved in the production. It was not too bad actually, coz the actors and actresses were good. Have some laughs and i understand how hard it is to produced everything from scratch to what they had last night...Round of applause to them...!!!WoooWoooHooOOo...

Went to Sharkfin House for 'yum cha' today...Been long since we last went yum cha...Nice of coz!!!Had my all time fav glutinous rice...Then, with the company of three macho guys, we went for some window shopping...Was a bit awkward and intimidating at first, but then after browsing the swimwear shop, kinda warmed up and was pretty fun after that...wuahoahoahoa...the feeling is jsut like goin shopping wif your boyfriend...hahahahahha...can't really think or see for a long time, after all most guys doesn't like shopping wif girls...but i guess the three guys were fine...huahauhau...Great job!There's too many things i wana buy now...sigh...$$$$$$

Currently looknig forward to our spa trip tomoro...huhuhu...

Put yourself into a 'Worry-Free' zone

2005-09-21T16:37:00.000+10:00

Finally,i can get mass media essay out of the way,which was one of the major essays...no more globalization at least for the moment and no more Japanese anime floating in my big head. Handed in the essay slightly after 4pm on Monday, but spent the whole morning editing and adding more ideas. But there's more to come in tv production and storyboarding...

Went to see Cameron Diaz yesterday in Melbourne Central coz she's in town promoting her new upcoming film- 'In Her Shoes'. Waited for this superstar for almost 2 hours before we get to see her charming face. She is drop dead gorgeous, with super hot body. Such a simply dress, yet makes her look soooooo attractive. If you're hot, you'll look good in anything. It's my first time seeing a Hollywood superstar...Wooooooo~~~

Headed back home after that and damn it, my right wrist was so painful till i can't sleep the whole night. Nearly cried bcoz of the pain. I guess i'm really lack of calcium or watever...Can feel that my bones will be out of shape in few years time.Wahahahahahha...Was trying to placed my hand up and down, left and right so that it won't hurt as much. But, it was useless...Woke up this morning and as promised, we finally headed to Inck Cafe for breakfast. I just love to eat bacon and egg for breakfast, especially when i'm overseas. But back home, i'll be like gulping nasi lemak, fried mee, prawn mee, chee cheong fun, and wan tan mee for breakfast...huahauhau...Anyway, had a really nice bacon and egg breakfast, served by a charming and still growing young lady*Wink* Now i kno how it feels like to work with just one hand. Can't even wear my panty and brush my teeth properly in the morning. All i can do was to poke on the already cut in pieces of bacon and bread with my left hand.

Discussed about our upcoming semester break..Wat we gonna do etc...Basically, we have cycling, white river rafting, tulip farm visiting, and spa-ing in mind...Can't wait for the break and then,we'll have two official weeks of class and off,we're done for the year...Met up wif Elina today, and we were talking about relationships and future career...Basically talking about marriage and how people nowadays doesn't want to have a baby...The level of commitment and responsiblity is just so high...I guess she's right by saying why worry about something which is not in your control area, and put yourself in a constant worry status...Just go for what you want while you're still young...

Mmmmm,I guess I've made the right decision...So why worry when you can enjoy the moment of being loved deeply...*Shy*LOL*Wink*

Weekend Fever

2005-09-19T03:33:00.000+10:00

Essay writing was the main and most important role for my weekend.Previously,my weekend problem used to be thinking about where to eat and what to do.But for the recent weekend,I have to cracked my brain to complete my 2500 words,most beloved Lingam Palam's Mass Media essay...WoooHooo...So cool huh~~~HAHAHA...Consequences of Procrastination~~~Deserve it!!!But then,i tink i'm one of those who jsut love to leave work till the end in order to push myself to the very edge,and hand in right on the dot...

Now,back to my weekend activities...On friday,I had dinner wif the ski trip gang at Laksa King.Again,the place was crowded wif people but this time i think their Har Mee was just so so...The gathering was meant to be a mooncake orgy.The highlight of the nite was hot choc at Fraus.Haw Chuan brought us to this cafe where they have a variety of hot choc flavor...Noughat,Vanilla,'Meringue'(Me-Rin-Ga),Hazelnut etc...I tink it's really nice,something new maybe...And it's so damn thick and filling...the guys gave us the 'Are you sure you want hot choc?' face when Irene and I just insisted on trying the hot choc right after our dinner...Will go back again to try the rest of the hot chocs...huhuhu...Then,headed back to my house for the mooncake.Haw Chuan bought this taboo like game called-Articulate...I tink it's really fun and educational bcoz we get to learn many new words...At least for Irene and I...Luckily my team mate did not pressure me...^^Found out that my general knowledge is really really shallow...Sigh...Words for the day: Belch,Bongo,Quebec,Sinbad the sailor...etc...

On Saturday,we had hot pot over at Franco's house.Nice!!!WooOOooo...sooooo syok!!!

Then,on sunday,Mid-Autumn Festival!!!and it's time for another costume party cum house warming party at cookie,yakult,kei kei, and tony's new house...ppl there were allll soooo funny and there were so many different characters around...we have shrek's wife,red-indian boy,batman,belly dancer,vampire,charlie chaplin,'sister in action' etc...Wild party like this is really fun at times...Just clear off ur pressure by crapping around and hoo-hah here and there...

Been quite happy wif life lately...The sparks are out again...(so coooollll huh...!!!)I guess i've learnt not to doubt and be stubborn over small little things and just go for what your heart says...No point worrying over issues which you'll never get an answer until the very right moment,end up hurting yourself the most...So why not go for it and be happy,and enjoy the feeling of being loved,adored, and appreciated...Isn't that the biggest satisfaction for a girl??!!Yea,you better be!!!

My choco factory

2005-09-13T11:08:00.000+10:00

Started off wif an early and cooling morning after my full blast weekend...Now,i'm off wif Monday Blues...But yesterday was kind of feeling good as i thought i'll be able to ease my guiltiness by going to the state lib to have some work done and then,head to nova for charlie&the chocolate factory.

Guess what??!!Ended up taking a foot tour around the city allllll bcoz of a friend which both of us love sooooooo dearly...The price of wanting to make everything perfect with no flaws at all...But i think it's worth it coz i can predict the 'reaction' upon 'its' arrival...It's not going to be as fun and insane without a good company talking,talking and talking while showing all the 'cute' faces beside you.Lucky me to have found one. ;p

Took our own sweet time strolling only to realized that the chocolate factory is starting in less than a minute...Managed to not missed any part of the movie and sat down quietly...Once i sat down,i realized how tired i was but still,the same old phrase-'A good company beats all'.The movie was quite interesting and true enough it's meant to target people who love chocs...*Willy Wonka...Willy Wonka*I tink Johnny Depp looks a bit weird as he always does...huahuahua...Though it looks a bit unreal but storywise i think it's good...Roald Dahl just love this kind of magical and imaginative stories.Love the Willy Wonka song.Can't help but laugh damn loud when i heard the song...oooOOoohHhh ooooHHhhhh...

Had a bad conversation yesterday with the person I cared for the most in this world and has the greatest ability to turn my emotion upside down...Deeply in love but what can i do??I guess someone needs to help me to overcome this stubbornness...Feel like knocking my head off the toilet bowl after i hang up the fon...Sigh...Life can be more interesting than what i'm going through now,rite??Assure me please...!!!*Fingers Crossed*

Guess it's the fear to try just to avoid failure in the future...

Full blast

My weekend ended with a full blast...First,on friday,i started off studying at the state lib early in the morning...Only to realized that it actually worked really well coz i was able to concentrate due to the so peaceful environment,the feeling of intimidation,and of coz being away from all the high-tech distractions...First half of the study was really progressing well,only after the lunch wif Mr. Joseph,I start to realized how hard it was to concentrate again...Never leave your stomach feeling satisfied before finishing studies...It's a mistake!Then,had dinner wif hawch,joseph and val at Laksa King...huhuhu...Nice!

Attended the pr seminar on Saturday,for the whole day... *_* Was a good one though as the speakers were all in the industry and it's time to listen to more real life experience talk...As usual,dinner on a Saturday is always a highlight of the day...Went to Carnegie for Korean food,as suggested by our Limey Franco...Went 'allllll the way' there only to find out that it's Kimchi Grandma...(City has one too...)After inching him for almost 10 minutes,we finally settled down and ran straight to the menu...The food was nice though,and the inching part was just a teaser...;p

Then,on Sunday Richie and I went to Sovereign Hill...And Irene was one of the leader of the trip...Was my first time there and i think it's a place worth going...A small heritage village with it's own culture and lifestyle...It used to be a gold mine back in the 1850s...Gold Rush era!!!Most of the activities there were related to GOLD...!!!We visited the underground mine,panned for gold and sat on the horse carriage(as suggested by our lovely Richie...SOooooo nice!!!)I guess the workers there have to go through a special audition in order to be taken as part of the family coz the guys there were alll soOOooooo cute...!!!And gawd,I love their steak and mushroom pie...SssooOOoo nice...!!!Sold off in just a tick!Another highlight of the day was the porridge which Sze cooked for dinner...I think it's so yummy till i ate three big bowls...She cooked two pot of porridge,each wif different ingedients and taste...i especially like the one wif corn in it...So sweet and tasty...!!!Wat's more satisfying than having three bowls of hot porridge in a wetty and coldy nite...

What's more painful than not able to say 'Yes' to a question which you have been waiting to be asked for a long long time??!!!!Sometimes there's too much of a hesitation to be considered when it comes to making a decision where u can't afford to repeat the same mistake anymore...Lately i'm always in this feeling of wanting to see someone so badly...Whereby you just have this one person in ur heart and u just want to see this person every second...This person has this great ability to affect your emotion max...It's obviously not a pleasant feeling coz you're basically controlled by this person indirectly...I guess that's the thing which 'contributes' to my moodswing lately...

One beats all

2005-09-08T23:23:00.000+10:00

Sometimes a comforting word simply beats all the flowery sweet talk...

I was talking to a friend today about my future studies etc and how much i feels like going home all of a sudden...All she need to do was to answer:"Come back and dun go anywhere,stay with us and dun leave M'sia anymore..."A simple sentence like that really touches my heart...Maybe i'm one of those easily satisfied kind of people therefore simple things just makes my day...I miss u very much,Yan... =)

I guess i'm in the mood of recording the small little things in my life lately...I sort of wonder how long will i continue wif blogging...Blogging has become a part of my life and looking back at my past entries,i realised how much i have done over the semester...The best part is when I was reading the lines posted by myself,I can feel the emotions running through my body...I can still feel the activities happening eventhough it's months back...Now i understand why some people have the habit of writing diary...Bits and pieces of life do makes lots of difference...It will be damn sad if one day i leave melbourne for good,coz it then means i'll not be seeing some of the overseas frens as often...It was where we developed our friendship,but also the place to end it...The end i mean here is not able to go out for activities or seeing each other as convenient as we do now...I've always avoided this 'leaving' issue when i'm out wif the gang,and i tink it wont bring any good by mentioning it...Just enjoy the time we all cherish so much now...But i have to admit that it jsut pops out every now and then,especially when I write week 9,week 10 on my lecture notes...

Guess it's high time for Krystal to show her word of appreciation to her friends in Melbourne,who she believed to have play an important role in her life:

1. The incredibly handsome Lime Franco:
You're really one of my bestest boy friend in Oz.And i guess ur even the bestest boy friend I've ever had in my life.You're just so open to everything,and i know very well that you have been tolerating and helping me very much.Though sometimes you thought i don't care about things,but in actual fact,I DO!!!I jsut feels hard to express myself sometimes coz i just enjoy observing and keep the feelings to myself at times...You're always and will be my bestest boy friend k...

2. The always pretty and friendly Ji:
You're my first ever Korean friend and i'm really happy that we managed to get along really well...I was really sad when you told me that you're going to leave Melbourne for good and head back to Korea...You have no idea how comforting it felt to see you smiling all the time and you have been giving me so much support during hard times...Though we don't get to see each other now,but still,i'm glad that we keep in touch...

3. The all time favorite precious Pumpkin Irene:
What more can i say besides i love you when it comes to your turn??Guess sometimes I jsut dont have to spell out every word to show you how much i treasure our friendship.My everyday actions speak all.You just managed to get hold of almost 90% of my behaviour in such short time.Sometimes,I"m jsut so impressed by your smart brain and how you dealt with me when you sense something different about me.Proud of u girl...As i've told you before,you're one of my few friends who can see everything about me through silence.No other feelings besides 'I'll miss you very much' when you're back to kl.So cool huh....!!!

4. The always naughty but adorable cuddly Tasmanian Valene:
Val, val, val...Sometimes I jsut feel the challenge when I'm talking to you.Your honesty is really adorable,though at first i felt hard to deal with coz i jsut love to keep quiet.But then,I just realised how much i needed a friend who is honest to me and tell me her true feelings.I guess this is wat i treasured the most.It's really funny how we sort of know the same gang of friends,but not knowing each other until we comes to this 10,000 miles away Melbourne city...Remember i asked u how amazing it is when people are given a chance to meet each other out of the billions of people?I'm glad we met...

5. The Mr. Handsome who fires loads of laugh bombs Fatso Richie:
It's really hard to imagine we can come to this point whereby all of us jsut laugh and crap about things for no reason...I guess you really brought loads of laughter to the gang,and your all time optimistic and slumber character is really the reason to why I love to talk and make fun of u so much...Sometimes i jsut feels that you look damn cool when you're talking about serious issues...

Hope you all like the collage above ok...Though it's a really simple one,but i tink it's more than enough to show how much i appreciate the friendship...It's really once in a lifetime chance to come across great friends like all of you...I'm glad i found u guys...!!!

THE DQs ROCK YA!!!

ps: Sorry to bored u all with this soooo long entry ya...Just wana confess myself before one of you start to thinks that Krystal is cold-hearted... =) WWoooooooohHhhh~~~

What a week!!!

And guess what,by the time I post this entry, it will be my weekend again...!!!Sometimes my best friend-‘Time’,just passes so fast...Anyway, went to the Melbourne Spring Fashion Week yesterday...the theme was City Slick...some of the brands were Bettina Liano,Wayne Cooper,Alannah Hill,Roy,etc...As usual,I have expect myself to pay attention on the models and people attending the event,rather than the clothing itself...Some of the models were just 'ssLLLuurrPPp'...and some of the hot and cute guys attended the show were even more 'sssLLLuurrpPyyy'...!!!Events like this just allows u to expose to different things and people...the whole atmosphere is of coz very different from attending clubs,parties etc...Wished I have this chance to organize events like this...Again,my dream is floating in my mind now...

As the semester draws nearer to an end,it means my assigns are near my eyebrows...but it seems that this sem is not as busy as my last sem...assigns are all quite spread out,and no matter how late or rush I get myself into,I'll able to hand them in on time...wooHOooo~~~

Went to state library today and their lockers are so cool...my first reaction shows how long I've not visit the library...dun even kno that they have change to this locker system...Bumped into Elina at the lib and have some chat...dun really see her as often this semester, but it.s nice to catch up once in a while…coz I tink she's really funny and the slumber type of lady...she was telling me how one person can forget about the egotism when you're really in love with a another individual...It was as though an apple fell on my head when I heard that...All of a sudden,I realized how stubborn I was all this while...and how I've wasted my time for nothing...

Comes to think of it,is it really that easy to tell yourself that u can overcome any problems if you're in love...Eventually,the circle will goes back to where it started..?I guess I still need to consider whether I'm willing to draw the same old circle or start a new square...The most annoying part is when u kno only that particular circle has the power to switch your mood and you'll still laugh out loud eventhough the circle is telling u the same joke for the 100th times...And only that circle has the ability to pump your heart beat to the max everytime u meet up with him...Experiencing all the adrenalin rush...Are you going to make a decision based on all the natural responses???Sometimes I just need all this constant assurance and sound to support my decision...So is that your own decision or just the surrounding sounds which is influencing you?Have you asked yourself what is your truest intention?

I have to admit that things that happened lately are quite pleasing...or should i use the word 'sparks' instead...things are just sparkling out everyday...or should it be 'hopeful' in terms of explaining both parties situation...i duno wat i'm saying but soemtimes i just enjoy the feelings of not able to explain clearly...shows that i'm too into it...At the same time,i nid to make myself clear not to let all these ticklish feelings drown the hidden problems and my true heart...Complicated huh?!?I guess life is meant to be complicated for you to gain more...be wise!!!

I guess what i can say is love is not a decision.Love is a feeling deep inside your heart.It would be so much simpler if we could decide who we love.But also,at the same time,less magical...

Have you decided?

Bits and pieces

It's the end of the week again!!!*Blink blink* and it will be week 10,11 and so on...just so fast...Neway,had barbeque yesterday at concept blue...just the five of us and i think it's more than enough...sometimes you don't really need the quantity to have fun...quality beats all!!!The bbq session was fine,and i really enjoyed eating the food...from squid balls to toufu fish,and pork belly to chicken wings etc...soooo nice...!!!And i guess another part of the entertainment was to watched girls and couples swimming inside,while the five of us happily enjoyed our food and the boobies outside...huahuahua...

Went back home to bathe and waited for val to cook her famous dessert...huahuahua...Nice!!!Thank you valene...!!!Had this 'my friend's friend' and 'your friend's friend' talk and i'm happy about it...coz there are times where you just need the assurance and comfort from each other in order to strengthen the friendship further more...Knowing that it wont's happen often,it makes me appreciate even more...And it feels good to reveal the true feelings inside...I guess i really like the sense of sharing emotions between friends...most important is the friend is willing to share and listen to u at the same time...Thanks ya!!!(*Currently maintaining a 'contented' smile on my face*)AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA...HUAHUAHUA...!!!

Today,woke up and went to the uni to finished off my court report...finally...!!!It's checked and at least i can get one assign off my list...Basically busy for the whole day as i went to melb uni to borrow some books for the benefit of my 'beloved' assignments...But,guess what,after finding all the books i wanted,went to the counter and realised that i din bring my caval card...how cool huh!!!??? =.=""" Can't borrow any books,need to go back again next week...

Was supposed to go to the movies wif haw chuan tonight...but i was feeling kinda tired and not in a movie mood,so ended up we went for a hot choc instead...the hot choc session lasted for three hours...until the people in starbucks gave us this look to signal us...we left,and then just sat in front of state lib to continue our conversation coz haw chuan said the nite is still young...woOOowww,i tink he's really good at using his words after knowing him more tonite...revealing the true self...we basically talked about everything...from head to toes...and he was telling me how shy and quiet he can be...about first impressions...and about our ideal partner...ideal marriage age...and he was saying how he din expect us to have this one to one outing etc...But it really freaked me out when we were walking home coz we witnessed an accident...just happened right in front of us...i tink we'll be involved if we crossed the road earlier by 10 secs coz this car speeds up eventhough the light had changed to red...lucky...!so loud and scary...luckily,no one was injured...everything's under control...

What a scene to end the night...!!!

Sudden thoughts...

2005-08-31T22:23:00.000+10:00

After chatting w tiff,i realised how much i miss my old friends back home,and in a way,neglected them sometimes...she was saying how old friends are always the ones that understand u the most...and i was acknowledging the things she said in my heart...i guess it's really hard to find that special clique with a new friend...whereas for old friends,they kno wat u wan and how u tink without any further explanation...and i find that it's the old friends who can really tolerate with everything u do...sometimes it's hard to establish that kind of closeness with another gang of frens...

I recall all the past memories and things me and my friends used to do when i was still the silly-willy girl...at the age of between 13-17 i guess...the after argue 'silence' will only remain for less than 10 minutes,and all of us will go back to our usual talking terms...and in a way,i guess i'm quite dependant on them...used to have them helping me in all sorts of things etc...and how we always fantasise about our ideal guy etc...

It was from them i realised how important it is to appreciate friends,and it's also bcoz of them i cry...i laugh...and i treasure...from the first day i arrived to melbourne till now,this particular group photo taken on the day i left for melb is still lying on my table...and realised how much we all have grown and can't help but keep thinking of the day i left-22/2/2003...that was the hardest cry and deepest sad...and i can't imagine i can make it to today...

Also,i guess yterday was the strongest wind i've ever come across in melbourne...duno how many peoples wig hav been blown off by this super duper strong wind...and it was also bcoz of this wind,i realised how much i needed a hug from the person i love...there were this few couples on the street...all the guys were hugging their girl as tight as possible,and try to block the wind for them...i tink it's really sweet,but i can feel the 'sour' in my heart when i saw them...and all of a sudden i realised a simple hug just beats a thousand words...whether it's from a friend or more effective is of coz from the person u love the most...

Sometimes it's really stupid to hide ur feelings and have the egotism as the barrier to open up urself...I guess we really don't have to hide our true feelings or feel shy to express...nobody knos wat will happen tomorrow...a simple 'thank you' to show appreciation is nvr too much...tell your friends that you love them and you'll give your full support regardless of anything...and i guess only true friends will stand by you closely without asking much when ur feeling shitty and in doubt of urself...my heart beats really fast when i see my close friends... =) ...that is how i determine who are my close friends...^^weird huh...

Thank you friends...Some of you really gave me your full support from the first day till now...I really appreciate it!

Special entry: Dedicated to my most beloved 'bee'...

Been receiving calls and messages from friends this two days...and the first sentence from them was:"Are you ok or not?" and the last sentence before they hang up was:"You better eat your med on time!" OKLA!!!

It's really the best gift to have friends like you all...I think this is the first entry with so many comments...and the comments are almost like scolding me for doing something wrong...okla,i understand all of your care and worries...I'll do my best...

Guess nothing beats the word Thank You!!!

Neway,had sashimi for dinner yesterday...Been quite some time since we last visit footscray for sashimi...bought different raw fishes,clams,sweet prawns etc...and also black sesame ice-cream!!!Believe me,the chemical between those food just works so well!!!and the barbeque pork and duck in footscray is just soooo nice...love it!after dinner was of coz my mum's time to share her experience with going to be fresh graduates like us...bombarded her with questions...can't stop laughing when she relate the things she said to handsome richie...his face was like "Wtf??!!Me again meh",but too bad,he can't say it out...huahuahua...i guess it's really important to land on the right platform in the future...especially the field we are going into...

No matter it's health wise,career wise,or future, own effort and determination is of coz one of the ingredients...and i guess fate is really the main one of all...Less than a year towards completing my degree,time to consider about my future pathway...

Though i'm feeling really frustrated by the same old sick and issues,but i guess life is meant to be tough in order for one to grow stronger...so dun worry bout me k friends...especially you,Charise...Promised that i'll take good care...^^I love u girl!

If God brings you to it,He will bring you through it.
