Valentine's Date @ Flamenco Plaza Damansara

Since Valentine's Day fell on the same day as 1st day of Chinese New Year, we celebrated ours on the 17th Feb! Not to say really celebrate la, just going to some posh place having good food, but of course, the one who accompanies you is all that matters :)

That day we had the whole restaurant to ourselves & the owner herself serving us!
All her staff is on hols.

Really nice ambience & the food is goooood!

The 'I'm bored' look

Wish I have one in my house, although I don't drink any wines... it looks posh-y & sophisticated :D

New Year's Resolutions 2010

Most people like to make a list of resolutions every year, but whether u manage to fulfill it or not, is another thing :P There's always the same ones repeating every year , the ridiculous ones, the impossibles & the simple ones but it's fun putting up a list anyway.
I know I am abit late but nonetheless, here it is!

1. Pick up a new skill
I wanna learn photography! When I'm 60ish I wanna be able to look at those old photographs & say 'those were those days' =) (but the bf bet RM200 that I will only last for 3 months for this... such bf!)

Digital Scrapbooking is another fun way to document those memories with photos, memorabilia & stories. Since scrapbooking needs alot of materials & craft ideas, I do it the modern way with digital scrapbooking using Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator, my forte :D

2. Eating healthily, make my own lunch
This is hard, you have to do the planning, groceries shopping & preparing it. But when I think of the canteen food > full of fried stuff, spicy oily sauces, yucky veges, only white rice... I think I will balloon into one of the 'before body size' of The Biggest Loser contestant in 3 months time.

3. Lose Weight
I believe this is on most women's list no matter how small or big you are. Hope to drop 2 or 3 dress size at least... hmph

4. Walk more
Shopping walks count? Yes, but then you down on those fast food or desserts on your shopping trips equals to 0. Oh well, I guess I will only carry Micki & walk around the block but time is always the factor preventing me to do so (=___=;;)

5. Blog more
Neglected this blog quite abit. Used to have a few entries per month, but nowadays it seems like it's only 1 entry for a month (=___=;;) I have loads of topics to blog about > restaurants I've visited, places I've been to & loads of product reviews. Again, time is always the factor + Astro + FB + TVB dramas >.<

6. Finish reading the whole Bible
I admit, I never finish the whole Bible before. Every starting of the year I will be so gungho to finish it but later then, slack after only a few weeks. My determination span is very weak de (=___=;;)

7. Saving up
As the old saying goes 'save for the rainy days' which is very true.
Bai bai shopping on impulse, bai bai shopping therapy, bai bai window shopping (T_T) wait!! window shopping is ok mahh right??

8. Learn Mandarin
I can't even write my own name in chinese to save my ass swt (=___=;;) I did try. I bought that box box exercise book for maths so I could practise but I got lazy. Such determination (=___=;;)

I am a Chinese! I should know how to read or at least hold a proper conversation in mandarin. (Im fluent in Canto thank God).

My sis has loads of awesome chinese manga & I can't read it at all T_T Flipping through it depresses me. Oh, my fav ViVi mag is in chinese too *depressed*
I did asked my parents 'ARRgghh! Why didn't send me to chinese skool?? Now I can't read these awesome manga!!' Their reply 'No nearby chinese skool lah tat time'. :(

Some people wud PROUDLY say " oh I am a banana, I ONLY speak english ok" *high nose* but puhleez la, its NOT cool!! oh well.. I need a teacher!!

9. Living Healthier
Sleep early, more veges, less sugary & fatty stuff, exercise, not stressing myself out, take it easy etc. you know the drill :)


That's all I can think of now, add more later XD

Ranting - 1 of my fav pastime


1ST
I know I should be thankful that I am alive, having an awesome family, cute pooches, a job that pays my bills & a seriously wonderful bf.

But seizure has been plaguing me since last year & I cant help but being depressed bout it. As humans always does, you always want to blame, asking the whys & etc right? On Nov adding dosage to my current medication were even more depressing. But after adding the dosage, there's improvement & not a single seizure coming on & I thought I was making good progress. Coming off the medication doesn't seem so far a distant, until i had one yesterday, a petit mal seizure. Totally crushed my self entertained glimpsed of hope resulting on a sleepless night.

Anyhoo, (spelt like that on purpose coz it tones down my seriousness) thinking back of the Haiti tragedy, I can't imagine how it felt for the survivors out there, injured, dehydrated, lost & helpless . I should be thankful for every moment that I am alive & still enjoying life.


2ND
My job.is.plain.boring.
But then, I've been saying that for every job I've been into ( so far i've changed 4 full time & been into 1 part time)
I wonder if there is any other job that would ever make me happy & entertained.
Many people stuck in lousy jobs just to pay bills. (I am no different)
Stuck in that same notion everyday. Don't know what they live for.
There's a huge difference between living life and simply existing.
I seriously don't want to spend the rest of my life by simply existing.
I want to live a living life.
Confusing? I thought so.
Not trying to be all Oprah here...

I'm drafting this from office... heh
Ranting done.

Random Fact 005

Yes, there's etiquette on how to eat sushi & what you can, must or never do while eating Japanese foodie.
The fine art of dining, Japs style.

ps: My bf does that 'dump wasabi into your soy sauce, turning it into soup' thingy everytime! Personally, I find that real unappetizing... sorry hun, truth hurts. Take it like a real man k. Bwahaha!

Random Fact 004

It's been so long since my last random fact!
Here's a nice one.


ps: Can't stand these people who print unnecessary on fresh papers!. You see, it's not that hard to take those one side printed only papers, dump it in the printer & print the unprinted side. Lazy assed peeps...

Pathetic Lovelorn

I think I've read too much romance novels.
Like, they have a sweet beginnings, then things started to get miserable & ends with sad endings or if you are lucky, happy ones.

I think maybe subconsciously I desire to be unhappy, whenever I am in a relationship.
Finding fault in every angle to the one who are close to me.
They always complaint that I am being unreasonable, pathetic, demanding & needy even.

There's one point, when I am acting like that...
Severing the relationship, hurting the other person emotionally,
he yelled back at me 'Who the hell you think you are? Some princess?'
Wow, that really wakes me up...

I can't help being that way.
I don't know why.
It's only when I look back, I'll be like "OMG, is that me??"
Do I need help?

Being emo... again

Okay, I didn't fall out of the face of the earth.
Just nothing inspiring, been busy with work & stuff.
These 2 months + haven't been exactly good or memorable I guess.

This has been bothering me for a while. (It happened almost 5 months ago)
I don't know why, some people change in a matter of seconds.
I can't barely recognized him anymore.
One minute I thought like I've known him forever, the other minute he's like a stranger.
Complete stranger.
We planned our future so much, and just overnight, all forgotten.
Why people change? They moved on, and you are left behind.
Chasing their shadows.
There you are, longing them to come back, but deep inside you know they never will.
It hurts. Like hell. It still do.
Hard to go on with life as usual.
When everything you do reminds you of him.
So, why people change?
It's scary. 

Moving on, meet other people.
Of all the people, they could never be compared to him.
Thought he was the one. So naive.
Now I am kinda relationship phobic.
Come & join my pity party T-T

In the span time of these few months, the hardships my family are enduring is suffocating.
Fear, confusion & worried.
I know everything happened for a reason but why do they attacked all together at once.
I don't think they could hold on any longer.
This song is sooo our situation.

The Fray - You Found Me
I found God
On the corner of First and Amistad
Where the west
Was all but won
All alone
Smoking his last cigarette
I said, Where you been?
He said, Ask anything.

Where were you
When everything was falling apart?
All my days
Were spent by the telephone
That never rang
And all I needed was a call
It never came
To the corner of First and Amistad

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, You found me

In the end
Everyone ends up alone
Losing her
The only one who’s ever known
Who I am
Who I’m not, and who I want to be
No way to know
How long she will be next to me

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, You found me

Early morning
The city breaks
I’ve been calling
For years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
You never sent me no letters
You got some kind of nerve
Taking all I want

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Where were you, where were you?

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, You found me

Why’d you have to wait
To find me, to find me?


Sometimes I am so tempted to run away.
Away from all these mess.
Peace & stillness. (okay I am not taking bout' death, choi!..More like New Zealand kind.)
Bliss.

Now, work.
I am so sick of it.
It's not what I wanted to do at the 1st place.
Now it's only the money, not the passion.
Same mundane situation everyday.
I want to do things on my own, at my own pace, me being in charge.
People in the office are so fake. Wearing masks everyday.
They could be acting all friendly but backstab you behind your back.
I really loathe this kind of environment.
You can't really trust anyone. Just you yourself.
When I first joined, they will be like "oh, welcome to the big family"
Big family my arse!

I really wanna do the working holiday thingy in UK T-T
5 years target. By 28, I shall be there!

Okay, ranting done.
Now I am back to my cheery self.

PS : I've bought some skincare & makeup stuff! Should I review all of them???

2009

Yeap peeps,after a long hiatus, I'm finally back into the blogging scene!
Didn't end 2008 with a bang,
sleeping in hospital bed instead.... looooong story.
Greeted 2009 with truckload of work, pathetic....
Anyways, I'm not being emo lah, life is a blast nevertheless.
In a good way!

Okay, here's the lowdown, which I don't know why you even bother to read instead of Youtube-ing.

I have a few seizures and the last one is on New Year's Eve.
Every aftermath it left me feeling tired and sick. No kidding.
So the last one was the worst. I don't know what's wrong & I never had seizures before, 
so after a few times it happened, instinct kicks in & I went to see a doctor.
He's like so bizarre, all I want is a MC but he lectured me (coz' I told him I wanna go back to sleep instead of going to the hospital) and a letter to admit to hospital.
He even try to scare me by saying..'how can you take this lightly??! It might be a brain infection or a tumour!!'...
I was like..wookay... My dad was like... omg!!omg!! really???omg!!!! 
So went to hospital and done all kind of tests.
Results: my left brain is the culprit! Scans detected that it's abnormal which made my system go haywire so now I'm on med. It's ok, but one of the side effects from the drug is gettin fatter...OMG!!
Apart from the long grandma's story I just typed, 
I am really touch by the people who visited me.
Your visits means so much to me! Sob...sob... Coz I am so bored to the core! haha
Seriously, really 'gan tong' lor, never expected a stadium worth of ppl to visit me (ok Im exaggerating) & my family.... they . are . simply. amazing! 
Tell your parents & siblings that you love them okay!
And peeps buy insurance!! Bloody hospital is so expensive!! My 3 days & 2 nights stint costed about RM2500+!! 
Thank God my mum forced me to buy insurance a few years back. 
If you happen to admit to the hospital, and you are insurance covered... 
go to Gleneagles Hospital!  (ok touch wood!!)
Damn syok lah! there's tv in front of yr bed, with Astro! and they serves you 5 meals a day!

Now move on,
WORK
is blah....
everyday it's the same mundane routine,
and I've only start working here for 2 months!
Is this normal??
I wish I can do something that I enjoy doing, 
Why people can't always get what they want??
Thought of being an online entrepreneur
Well, as the saying goes 'No pain, no gain...'
So starting by doing research 1st... 
Hopefully one day I can sleep till 12pm, shopping mall visits at 2pm
and only work when I'm feeling hardworking :D

Hope everyone's 2009 will be a great one!

Twilight review, new company and stuff

Officially saw TWILIGHT!
Sad to say, a lil' dissapointed.
Maybe my expectation was like skyrocketing high, but oh well.
The book describe the Cullens as if they are the most magnificent, beautiful being,
but the cast was like meh....ops... except for Carlisle Cullen, he was spot on.
Just as the book described him :D
Rosalie supposed to be the beautiful one among them...but eh...
Edward is oookay, thumbs up for the perfomance, but in looks department I totally think that they should choose Ben Barnes instead (*≧▽≦) 
(yes me & my ben-atic addiction)
Okay I know, he looks way over 17, so no go....
How about Chase Crawford? Perfect right? 
Can I say omg? he's sizzling hawt!!
Our bdays are only 9 days apart.
20 degrees closer to Chase? (*≧▽≦) 

Is it me or does Kirsten Stewart (Bella) seems stiff?? 
The chemistry between Bella & Edward was kinda depressing. 
If you love someone so intensely, you can see and feel it right?
But I don't see it between them? Like they were so awkward?
Crossing fingers for the follow up movie 'New Moon' gonna be better.


Ahh, work life.
You either love it or hating it.
It's kinda in between for me.
I don't know, ever felt like you 're doing stuff over and over and loathe the sight of it at the end of the day?
Okay lah, it was not that bad.
This new company I'm in is kinda cool.
Dunno whether I can say this or not, but I figure it's only frens here so...
I am working with Ginvera, brands under my wings now are Bio-essence & Nugeno.
Yet to try their stuff, will let you peeps know once I've tried their highly acclaim miraculous 'Face Lifting Cream' .
Let's see whether it can lift my humongous fat cheeks or not.
Yea, learning stuff, being a guinea pig smelling fragrances for skincare (yes, they use the staff as guinea pigs for this kinda stuff), staff purchase (omg!), staying back late, like real  late every now & then... 
coz I'm a slow-poke and Bio-essence have damn good business that they can afford to throw out gazillion of ads, means more work for me, to the extend of skipping lunch? Yea I am that responsible, I forgot to eat when my work is not done.
If you are loaded and wanna hire me (5 figure salary only), my contact number is 01x-xxx xxxxx


Went to personal makeup workshop today with Sis & Venus.
When we're using blades to tidy up our brows,(don't use tweezer, skin will lose elasticity
I accidentally nicked my finger.
Such a klutz.
I am proven accident prone :(

That's all for my MIA stint. 
Cheerios!

Well, the love = V thingy, yeah... coz I need lotsa TLC 
ヾ(^∇^)
Gonna plastered it all over but I am too lazy to mess with the blog's layout ( ̄ー ̄)

Slacking off...

Not updating much coz' nothing bizarre happened, (I did attend to a few parties tho', but since I'm such a pig, so forget it)
and I.am.busy
haha!
Not busy busy, but I am busy! (make sense?)
I have assignments to summit! omg.... and I thought I have  grown out of that last-minute-assignment-submission phrase, well... apparently not.
I am still procrastinating, not that I don't enjoy doing my assignments, but anyhoo, will get to it asap!

O yeah, I got a job offer like few weeks ago! (which I accepted!)
Right after my 2nd interview, when I was on my way home, they called and offered me the job!
Not gonna start working till my classes finishes.
Honeymooning now till 17th Nov, woot!

After 4 months of idling, I am finally back to the workforce!
I am so friggin grateful!
I have never been this glad (work related). 
I would never wish for staying in on my cozy bed again when I have to get up early for work (a jinx? coz I get to do that for 4 months straight after wishing that... so no need to get all jealous)

These 4 months really passed me by in a flash.
Which I no complaints because during this period, I went through so many emotions, particularly not memorable ones.

Thank you Lord for your unfailing love, many times when the very-weak-me failed you in many ways, making empty promises, and yet you always watched over me and stood by my side.
My family for being my support system, erasing all my negative vibes.
My friends as my comforter, preventing me from being a social recluse (not going out for a month can do you serious damage!)
Muahxxx! (Lip gloss stain included...)

Guess who I accidentally met?

Went to Pavillion KL for some serious (window) shopping with moi girls, Feeling & Nicole over the weekend.
Then we came across this group where this cute guy were surrounded by a few big burly giants. 
The cute guy looks familiar but my brain was quite disoriented right then by all of the shopping.
The group stopped us, all smiley as one of the big guys approached and mumble something to Nicole while passing a flyer to her.
After the group moved on, I was telling my frens that the cute guy looks soooo darn familiar.. 
and we checked the flyer to see what it's all about...

OMG!! The cute guy that we just saw was Jeff Timmons from 98 Degrees (who's abit short in real life, haha) who had practically just stopped and smiled (maybe he did mumbled abit too, I'm not too sure)  at us!!
It's not everyday you can meet a celeb aye? :D 
But gimme Lee Hom anyday, 
I will worship the ground he walks on :D

I just died a little

Why is it so true that nothing good last forever?
If that's so, why does it has to be this soon?
Just when I thought 'screw everything, at least I have this one thing to hold on to'.
Now it's gone too.
How could someone who shares so much with you becomes so cold and distant in matter of seconds?
Yea, nothing we could do about it ain't we.
People change, and that's the scary part.
Let me drown in misery and never wake up.

internet died + Micki in pain + 8 biatch(es)

-Start of Rants-

It's that time again for some rantings!

INTERNET
Recently my comp decided to pissed me off simultaneously.
1st the router got fried, don't know how the hell it happened but one fine day when I turned it on, it 'farted' a rather funky smell and went dead omg.
Changed it to new a one.

Next up, my stupid network card decided to not let me online.
My life depends on it ok! Someone please shoot me.
Well, I figured after it has serve me for good 5 years +... it has pretty much done its job.
Time for a new one.
So, changed it to new a one.

Now, most of the stuff to get me online are spankin' new...
Should be no hay problema for me to get online asap aye!
WRONG!!!!!!!!!
It shows 'Limited or no connectivity' when the status show it's connected!!! WTF!!!
Pissed to the max!

Spent two days consecutively to fix the damn thing.
Called my ISP but they said I am connected to them pretty well! omg what's wrong???!!
Ugh, have to send my com to the shop later... (blogging through the office's net now... heh)

*UPDATE*
I am back online at home now!! Yay!!
The trip to the computer shop cost me RM 183 T.T sob...
Turns out that my NEW router got stroke by lightning and is faulty now.
My NEW router!! Barely 2 weeks!!
I can send it to the shop where I bought it but I won't get it back till like few months after.
I don't think I can survive another minute without internet.
So I got another new router + a voltage regulator (peeps buy this!!)
I am pissed poor now T.T

MICKI IN PAIN (but he doesn't seems like it)
Bathe Micki (my toy poodle) and combed his fur as usual, with this pin steel brush that looks like this :
While brushing, I watched some TV and as I thought I'm brushing his chest area, I am actually brushing his groin!!
O000UCH!!! omg I am so sorry baby!!
Now his wee wee is all flared up and the skin is torned abit.
Tried to bring him to the vet but it is closed. OMG!!
I'm applying aloe vera to his wound profusely now.
Hope it soothes that area.
I am such a bad mummy!! T.T

8 (pat=busybody) BIATCH(es)!!
Yeap, they exist in my office unfortunately.
I have no problem with them being 8, but hey, why always give me this 'tu lan' face??
So damn fugly ok!
Maybe they feel like they are these 'old 8 lowly creature' who is not worthy to bask in the glory of this angelic, sweet, young thing like me :D (i heard you saying nonsense!)

Anyhoo, the fact that you are old, fugly and 8, you are not allowed to talk about boys like teenagers! (I might be wrong)
Geez, grow up! (I am so over that phrase... not! haha)
OMG these 8Bs go on and on and on and on talking bout' boys and giggle on the most lamest stuff.
"Wow, look at his hair so cute wei!"
"He's abit chubby but oh so adorable!"
"Aww, he's such a gentleman! I would totally fall for him IF I'm not married!" (yes they are old and very married)

Well one of the 8B made an attempt to engage me in a convo.
Im not sure whether she's just being nice or simply just 8.
I decided on the latter.

8B : So Vivian, do you have A BOYFRIEND??? (I swear I saw a smirk! she must be expecting a NO from me,(even though it is quite true... T.T) thinking that I'm not so laku and wallows in self pity. Sorry, mama's not gonna say NO.
Me : Yeah, we are planning to get married like in 2 years time, and then, gonna tour Europe! (ya I know, so sweet right?! If only reality is that blissful T.T but then it's not like I'm gonna meet them again so what the hell... haha!)
8B : O yeah?Wow that is so err... great. *in a distaste manner and turn to talk to another 8B*

Lesson here is, COUNTERSTRIKE when they least expect it, well, within logic of course.

-End of Rants-
Cheerios!

Emo-ing

Yeah I am still alive and kicking it :D
Been emo-ing lately :(:(:( Maby it's that time of the month????
It is pretty unusual for me to snap or devour some morons-who-can't-leave-me-alone (so you are pretty safe).
Just that my omgwhyamisosmart brain works overload thinking of utterly unnecessary stuff.
Anyways, found this old song in my HD that totally cures my emo state!
The power of music! Amazing!

1 2 1 2 3 owww~
Wake up kids
we got the dreamers disease
Age 14 they got you down on your knees
Souls polite, we're busy still saying please
Friendnemies, who, when you're down ain't your friend
Every night we smash their Mercedes-Benz
First we run; and then we laugh till we cry
But when the night is falling
and you cannot find the light, light
You feel your dreams are dying
Hold tight

You've got the music in you
Don't let go
You've got the music in you
One dance left
This world is gonna pull through
Don't give up
You've got a reason to live
Can't forget
We only get what we give

I'm coming home baby
You're tops, Give it to me now

Four a.m. we ran a miracle mile
we're flat broke but hey we do it in style
The bad rich
God's flying in for your trial
But when the night is falling
You cannot find a friend, friend
You feel your tree is breaking
Just bend

(chorus)

This whole damn world can fall apart
It'll be ok, follow your heart
You're in harms way I'm right behind
Now say you're mine

(chorus)

Don't let go
I feel the music in you,you,you YOU!
Fly ....... high .......!
What's real ....... can't die .......!
You only get what you give
Gonna get what you give
Don't give up
Just don't be afraid to live .......!

Health insurance rip off lying
FDA big bankers buying
Fake computer crashes dining
Cloning while they're multiplying
Fashion shoots with Beck and Hanson
Courtney Love, and Marilyn Manson
You're all fakes
Run to your mansions
Come around, we'll kick your ass in!

Don't let go
One dance left
Don't give up
Can't forget

Data Admin??who in the world would sign up for that??

Hi folks! I am still alive! Woo Hoo!!
Yeah, I know, lame.
First day working as a temp data admin.
It bored me to tears okay! Seriously do people do this for a living??
Filing document, punching holes on papers, keying in invoices & expenses claims?
OMG this gotta be the borrringest job in my life!
Im like brain dead, doing these things robotically.

Previously when I was in advertising, I so wish I don't have to use my brain.
I have to use it 24/7, even when in sleep, I would think of ways to perfect my work or how to get rid of it :D

Now that I don't have to use my 'supergeniusomgwhyamisosmart' brain at all, I felt like a vegetable T.T
Anyways it's all pretty easy actually but why are there so many friggin' numbers??
Gawdddd how I loathe them *yes I almost flunk my Math in SPM & no, not all Chinese excels in Math, or is it only me? T.T)
Numbers everywhere!!! I have to type them one by one and calculate them on the damn calculator!!! OMG!!! (I used a lot of OMG lately eh?)
Anyways as the saying in malay goes,*my BM teacher gonna love me for this* 'pahit sekarang, manis kemudian'.
Direct translation 'Bitter now, sweet later'. Well, it better be sa-weeet!!
On the subject of sweetness, ahem... Miss you Jie Ke!

My 4 days stint in Singapore

I decided to go and try my luck in Singapore since there's not much in KL.

I arrange my interviews and got a Transnational bus ticket.
The bus service was quite good. On time and comfortable.
The only thing that sucks is, they left me stranded at the Singapore Customs.
I don't know why it is so crowded! 'People mountain, people sea' okay!
So I got through after an hour of waiting in line and Transnational left me stranded, cold & lonely.
So my fren asked me to board another bus to Bugis where she'll meet me there.

To cut the long story short, I like Singapore!
-If you are earning Sing dollar, the stuff there are like friggin' cheap!
-More shopping!! *big wet happy eyes*
-There was one time I bought this watermelon soyabean drink (yum~) and just stroll around alone in Tao Payoh center & it was so enjoyable! I don't think I can stroll around that leisurely, open air in KL lor. (we all know why...)
-I also like the public libraries available there! Not just one! I saw a few during my trip!
Good news for a cheapo bookworm like me who is too poor to buy new books :D (i know it contradicts with the part on me being a shopaholic...but focus on me being poor okay! :D)
-The transport system kick arse! I've never gotten lost before while I am there. It is so convenient to travel around. In KL if you don't own a car, you go no where.
-People there are generally nice. The interviewers especially! so nice! KL ones suck...

Ahhh after all the good stuff, there must be a lil bit of trashing right? That's the universal format.
-I'm crashing at my fren's place and she has like 9 other apartment-mate. 10 people in a small apartment! I can hardly breathe.
-I can't imagine sharing a room with a stranger ( or a few strangers!) but the rent there is skyrocketing expensive!
-The food, I can say... meh.... and KL is truly a food haven :D Don't believe me? Come over and I'll show you!

All in all, I am glad I 've made it there alone and it was a great experience!
And my friends! who made my stay so much more pleasant & lovely...muahhhs!

On being jobless...

So, quick update (okay, maybe not that quick).

Been rottening at home for almost 2 months!
Totally broke my record of 1 week.
The shortest one was only 2 days!
Why am I rottening?
Nah... I don't wanna get on the details on how I got to the stage where I am rottening now.

So, on being jobless...

At 1st it was pretty good.
1. I don't need to set alarm (which I usually hit snooze when it rings anyway)
2. TV marathon babe!
3. Shopping!
4. Movies at the cinema!
5. No more work stress!

Then after one week, it all sank in.
1. It sucks when everyone in your family goes to work and you sleeps in. It made me looked lazy!
2. I was bored to death.
3. TV is evil. It rob your time & time is precious.
4. Shopping alone is no fun. I keep on thinking that people look at me while I was shopping alone at working hour is because they knew I'm jobless? or is it just me?
5. Movies alone at the cinema sucks. It made me looked very ke lian. Same case with eating out alone.
6. I feel so useless. Can't help it since all I do is eat, sleep, internet (chatting with frens, hardly productive) and watching TV.
7. My bank account is drying out. Thus, not much shopping for me. That sucks big time ok!
8. Being a slacker totally made me slacks more. (Not my fault!)
9. No motivation to do anything else.
10. It is embarrassing? Or is it just me?

So there, the cons outweighs the pros. x 2!

Btw, I don't sit on my arse all day.
I have been to a little too much of interviews already and getting sick of it.
Some wants you to work like dog and pay shit.
It's even lower than my 2nd last company's salary wtf!
They even make 'special demands' like, we are gonna overnight to get the work done okay and we can only go home after 9pm.
I'm not friggin' robot lor and I'm sorry that you don't have a life.

Oh well.
Just being emo =_______________= (my emo-ing longish face)
Anyways, I thank God that I have family and friends who doesn't nag me but being positive 24/7. Muahhhss! Love ya'll!!

ps: do you happen to have 'How I Met Your Mother' season 3?? :D

TVB Stars - Bowie Lam & Bernice Liu


Today two TVB stars came to Jusco nearby my area! How bizarre is that? (okay, my place is not that ulu!) Can you spot Bowie Lam & Bernice Liu? They are doing roadshows for Astro On Demand 1st anniversary. Bernice is definitely more petite in person & just as funny! One of my fav actress! :D
