The last day of 2008

Today is the last day of 2008, and...i am home! Hmmm, to think of it, next year this time, i will be in scotland already. Oh wait, mayb i'll be in germany..or some other country counting down..*giggles*

For the final blog of this year, i shall blog on the new things i learnt, new places i went, basically everything new that i never did/had in 2007.

1) I learnt how to swim! *like FINALLY right* But only breaststoke.=P

2) I learnt how to photoshop. Though still not good at it..but as malaysians always say 'Boleh-lah...'

3) I started my new hobby of running up the staircase of the condo i currently stay at.*hmm, but it's been at halt since the new sem..sighs*

4) I learnt how to knit. Knitted for kenneth, mummy and daddy.

5) I renewed my driving license ystd. Which expired in february!*wtf??*

6) I went to germany and paris. It was the best month of the year!

7) I went to Pangkor Laut Resort. And felt like a princess!!

8) My 2008 photo collection amounted to more than 12gb and next year will definitely be even more. Thank goodness i got a harddisk.

9) And well, as mentioned above, i got a new 320gb harddisk, an 8gb USB flash drive.(plus some other things la..)

10)Errrmmm......i grew taller? Cuz both poh yee and i claim that we are 160cm but i am taller than her. So either she isn't 160, or i am more than that!muahaha...hope she doesn't read this=P

Hmm, that's all i can think of for the moment..not planning to strain my brain too much on the last day of the year..hehe..

Another recent highlight is that i received two gifts ystd.=) Technically speaking i have not received one of it yet cuz it's still with Kelly. Yeap, so one is from Kenneth=) And another from my sis. They are both totally different things..but have one thing in common.

THEY ARE VERY THE EXPENSIVE ahhhhh!

I shall not reveal the price. But the one i got from Kenneth is a musical box with the song 'Edelweiss' playing..which coincidentally i just heard that song from an orchestra i went last week.=)
The second is a necklace + earrings set. The postage itself costed 18 dollars (approx. rm45) And the set was even more expensive.*i feel so bad*

Anyway, to end my final blog of this year, presenting.....my south park character for our convo mag.=D



Chin yeong said the character looks like me. But she didn't notice my 'new' adidas germany soccer jersey=(

Anyhow, me cute not?=P

This is My December

I know I don’t usually blog about my own experiences but I’m gonna give it a shot this time…hehe…

It’s been a pretty fun month for me…at first I didn’t plan to come back to Malaysia this time around…I was going around telling Pat that I would have time to meet up…telling PohChan that I would be around to attend his convo…telling people that I will be celebrating CNY at Melbourne and stuff…

The main idea of me staying back was to get my 2009 accomodation sorted out but with a stroke of luck, I got it settled and with that thing out of the way, I’ve got no reason to stay back at Melbourne anymore…so with no hesitation, I moved my stuffs to the new house…booked an AirAsiaX  ticket (sorry guise…I’m pretty poor-ish, so no full-service airline for me and no business-class rubbish =P) and voila…back in Msia! hehe… 

my 09 crib

this one here is my new crib...I'm only renting a room here...sharing the house with some uni-mates...(sorry about the poor quality of some of the images...coz I took them with my lousy phone camera)...

A little bit about my AirAsiaX flight…budget airline…as you would’ve guessed…everything is pretty basic…as one of my friend has pointed out…it is just to get you from point A to B, nothing more…so  just pop in some benzos, close your eyes and sleep till the plane reaches its destination. And it did live up to its ‘reputation’…the flight was delayed for 30 mins…tsk tsk…bad first impression.

09122008012

I like the seats…its abit like business class design, like when you recline, the seat won’t sort of take up the legroom of the person behind, so no more rubbish like, “oh sir, could you please set your seat upright coz the person behind you wanna eat / use the table-y thingy” 

food

the food...might look abit like crap but tastes pretty okay...it was some BBQ chicked with baked potatoes....sth like that.....

09122008004

inflight entertainment unit...can be purchased onboard but on that day the flight crew said it was unavailable due to some fault in the system that was 'unserviceable' (typical Msian excuse, just like 'masalah teknikal', 'sebab-sebab yang tidak dapat dielakkan' and etc.)

09122008007

some Msian styled 'artwork' in the toilet...

So now that I’m back in Stw…do pretty much the same thing everyday…breakfast, sleep/online, astaka, dinner, sleep…so if u wanna catch me…astaka would be the perfect spot…met a couple of Stw friends though…like TauLiang, ChinKai, Nailah (if you guys still remember who she is), Wong Mai Peng, Mr. Choong / Ultraman-teacher,  Ling Gear Long…all at astaka la….

Oh yea and I did went to Ipoh’s International Orchid Festival thingy…who need the Tesselar Tulip Fest at Melbourne? We got our very own….like right at our own backyard…hehe…so some orchid pics now….

Then I was off to Singapore…to visit my sister, help her move to her new crib and crash her housewarming…I’ve heard alot about Singapore’s Christmas and has been missing out like for the 1st 20 years of my life….so I wanna go and see it for myself this time…and oh yea…sorry ah CY…for not calling you out to meetup coz my schedule was pretty packed and couldn’t find time to visit you at NUS…but I did manage to meetup with YeeSiang one morning (My sis’s place was at Jurong and coincidentally he’s staying at Jurong too!)

Went to a few places in Singapore like Sentosa and etc…

the Merlion at Sentosa...

Please note the scales on the merlion, it’s a shape of a ‘Bagua’, the fengshui / taoism stuff…just if you guys don’t know, the 1 dollar coin and other banknotes like the $10 also bear the ‘Bagua’ symbol…

I also went to this Indian restaurant, Annalakshmi,  a non-profit vegetarian restaurant. Good food, nice atmosphere and there is no fixed price to the menu, you just pay what you feel like paying…

p1010791

my lunch...with strawberry lassi ^^

p1010787p1010782p1010786

the interior was pretty amazing for a non-profit makan place…nicely decorated with paintings and Hindu figurines and since its christmas, there’s also a christmas tree inside….how good is that? hehe…

me trying out one of those sharp front, blurry back photo thingy....

of badass complaints and angelic wishes

before this year comes to an end, i seriously need to complain about what's lacking in 2008

1. why ppl are still debating to whether
to retain english in maths n science..
"i are dunno what is u speaking" ->isn't that good reason enough?
2. petrol price should seriously drop abit(only ABIT) more.
rm1.80 still making my wallet bleed ler..
albeit a little less profusely
3. who's to say a person with HIV+ cannot get married?
i don't see anything wrong with that, as long as both parties know what they're doing
and take proper precaution and measures to prevent the widespread of it.
4. i still think *JN should not be privatised.
Social welfare must be the main priority to the gov.
and health benefit should be made equal to all.
5. and not to be a pessimist, but let's face it.
we'll never be able to achieve graft/corruption-free nation.
for where there is $, there graft will be..
regardless how rich or highly moraled one is,
there is always a price to morality.
right, no?
6. ohh, and so long as we're are still on the topic of
public welfare..
i think, senior citizens should be given
free public transportation.. :)
oh don't ask me why..
post-christmas spirit
:)

nyehehe.. oh..
perhaps i will talk about world wide economic recession in my next post
if i am feeling smart enough to do so...

next, i have consulted the crytal ball of future..
(not exactly rocket science)
but
NEXT YEAR will NOT BE EASY ya...
so i guess that means financial prudence will top the NY resolution list
together with the EVER long running resolution of "losing 2kgs"..hehe

ohh and i think, this year ppl STILL DON'T GET IT that
1.Santa did not die for their sins.
2.not receiving a gift for Chrismas is NOT the WORST thing that could happen to you
believe it or not:NOT receiving salvation is actually worse..
but what can you say when ppl still believe that MEGASALE is the reason to celebrate Christmas.. :)

that's what i have to say as queen b*tch for 2008's party poopers

FOR 2009
i wish the hard times ahead will help us search true selves
as we strive for our own betterment.
and hoping for world peace can never be too cliché a wish :)

yes,and i love you too!
muaks!

P.S- i was watching the rerun of miss USA'08 on NTV and have i told u how i find their smiles totally contagious? i was smiling back right at the TV everytime they flash their pearly smiles. made me look like i was high on drugs smiling madly back at the TV screen. seriously... *grins madly back at you*
