Honey Bunny Crush

Zero chance given

2009-09-20T18:52:00.002+10:00

So much things had happened to me lately, both good and bad which almost lead me to reconsider things and head home to be with my family. Home is where the heart is thats very true.....

I know many of my friends are stucked in a situation where they can't get the job they want. All i want to say is please don't give up..never! Not because i'm showing off my job nor said is easier than do. I was floating around for 6 months plus before i got one...not exactly a desired one but get your feet on the door is what i was thinking. Even if it's not part of your desired career pathway but it would be a good starting point in not asking money from your parents right? I'm not really that comfortable with my current job though i wanted it so badly before. Trust me..even if you got the job you want you'll still whinge about something else. That's life! Nobody talks to me at work..only when they need me to do something. They use sticky notes instead of telling me on my face what they want me to do. They group themselves procrastinating about their kids and weekend plans and i'll be just sitting at the other end of the bench feeling absolutely miserable. I'm not an anti-social person but i just can't fit myself in......placement experience was one of the things i miss the most in that kind of environment....do i have an attitude problem or it is just them ignoring me all the time T_____T

A whole new language

2009-08-06T14:41:00.006+10:00

First of all, no offence to all Facebookers, i judged based on what i saw on my news feed everyday. It really does drive me nuts when the first page on my facebook account is fulled with quizes people did in English and Mandarin. This is Ivy's page abuse already T___T too bad police won't take my case *cries*

If you are a Facebooker, you must be familiar with this trendier Facebook-friendly terms to describe different individual (might be your friends or friends' friends yadda yadda) on FB.

Face-brag: Use FB only as a way to brag about your great new job, hot date last weekend, brilliant child or pets or even fancy cars. I mean that's awesome okay? But the rattling sound you now hear is our eyes rolling back in our skulls.

Face-goggler: People who post misleading profle photos of themselves on FB. This is still alright to me because i have not come across any so far phew!

Face-woe: The opposite of Facebrag. this is the dark habit of ONLY updating your FB status area with sad or depressing news--- ''Ivy Eng is crying''--in an effort to get 50 comments of support from your friends. Not in my case because people can't be bothered why i cry *screams*

Face-crack: Ahh, the phenomenon of being addicted to FB. You're just dying to log on now and take another quiz or send another beer, poke another friend or tag another photo from high school reunion, aren't you? Just say no!!! Speaking of quiz, do your friends really judge friendship based on '' How well do you know Ivy Eng'' quiz? Not to be mean but if they really do say goodbye to your friends la okay? What if you really score 100% does that mean you'll get a prize from your friend by being a TRUE friend gosh i wish i would never have to see those quizes anymore hahahaha!

And then there's Twitter. FB isn't the only social media phenomenon that is magically coining a new language. Look no further than its evil cousin, Twitter, for whole new set of fun words, including these:

Twitface: A term of contempt fot those synch Twitter and FB and then constantly update both throughout the day.

Tweetwalking: Twittering while asleep (Seriously stop going to bed with your Blackberry)

Twidiot: Any Twitter user who can't string togther a grammatically correct sentence in 140 characters. (I did this very often i guess. what a shame!)

I like FB but it's just the abusiveness of FB these days make me feel like shouting ''Get a life people!!!!" Sorry if this post pissess you off my dear dear friends =)))

So take a look at me now

2009-07-21T22:02:00.009+10:00

Ivy Eng is Si Gemuk!!!! Omg i cannot tahan looking at myself getting fatter especially the face..my face!!! Why my face and my body are not proportionate bloody hell! I would prefer a fat face with a fat..like really fat body rather than aiyooooo bloody hell don't know how to say! Which one do you prefer? Fat face or fat body??

Cannot take nice nice pictures already omg thats why i never upload pictures on Facebook anymore..probably freak you out my friend T_____T When my friends think of me they would still remember the not-so-fat Ivy Eng which is a compliment at least.

I read Pris' latest entry. I agree with what she said. Living in a big city is good when you have close friends hanging around. I envy big cities for only two reasons: shopping and dining =p but at this stage a bit difficult for me to live in big cities with zero savings *cries* Thats why have to live in Tassie to practise self-control before i totally lost it at all LOL! Speaking of close friends i miss my friends again =(((( why you girls and boys have to live so farrrrr awayyyyyy from me adui!!!!! Don't you know i miss all the joy and laughter that we had in that 2 and a half years!!!!!

Kthxbye! (I know i know..fat right??? OMG i can hear everyone laughing at my big and flat face already *screams*)

My first complain

2009-07-09T00:06:00.004+10:00

Working life sucks!!!! Sucks big big time *cries*

Actually i should clarify..working life is good it's just the working environment is so disappointing i would say =(

I'm the only Asian in the entire lab and i think my presence is not much welcomed here wtf! the students working here are all very nice but the scientists omg omg OMG think i'm invisible most of the time. However, i'm not upset. Like i said, i just want the experience and get paid thats all i'm asking for so who cares hahaha! The scientists in my department always have that kinda look at me (the only bloody Asian ) as if i should not be working there T_______T

I miss doing my placement in Melbourne. At least everyone is willing to teach me what i should know. Not like this lab which i always have that kinda feeling that i'm indeed a very annoying person siiiiiigh! Is that wrong to ask questions? I ask because i do not want to make mistakes okay??

I'm glad i'm just a casual =)

Look forward to my new home sweet home =)

I got a job

2009-06-22T18:26:00.002+10:00

I'll be working in a lab starting tomorrow yeay!!! Haematology is always my favourtie subject so see me working in haem okie dok!

Two part-times equals a full-time job i'm very happy with that =)

Darl bought us each a new phone teehee!!!!! Thanks very much but the phone is wayyyy too fancy for a silly girl like me =p

I miss my friends every now and then. Sometimes i wish they have never left this place because when it's girlfriends day i don't know who to call. I guess i have to spend some money on air tickets to have our girlfriends day T_____T

Happy Father's Day Papa! Love you lots!!!!!

Chocolatier

2009-06-05T14:13:00.006+10:00

I'm being bad because i abandoned my blog =)

It was Stan's birthday yesterday but still he had to work day and night. In order to make it up to the birthday boy, we (as in the staffs and friends) had an early celebration. Krista and Bobby were kind enough to buy him something really USEFUL, something that would help him achieve his dreams and do-ivy-a-favour prezzie hahaha!

Yes yes yes it's a bee skipping rope the couple bought from the Honey Farm! However, a day after they gave him that present, Stan's Uncle Toby bought him this.

Adui...how can like that??!!!! (But these truffes are gorgeous!!!!!!)

Diamonds are girls' best friend but let me introduce Godiva to you ladies! Your best friend FOREVER!!!! Your best friends during your bad days hahahaha!! When you are left with nothing in this world but money Lady Godiva can be your one and only friend =)))))))) I'm not a big fan of chocolates as you may have already know but try this one....it's quite pricey but worth the money ladies!

Kill me please!

2009-05-01T15:11:00.004+10:00

Some of you might be wondering what i do everyday to kill time before 5pm EVERYDAY. Oh well i will be very very honest with you..you probably think that i do not have a life...come on who does have one if you got stranded in Tassie doing nothing for more than 3 months =_=''

I wake up at 10.30 every morning, brush my teeth wash my face. That took less than 5 minutes. Then, turn on the computer, sometimes no need to turn on because Stan left it on the whole night. One step lesser which gives me another 2 seconds to kill omg!!!! First thing, sign in to MSN then check my hotmail for jobssssss. No news from job alert then delete other junk mail as well. Second thing to do i'm on facebook checking out other peoples's photos. These days people tend to be less active on facebook arrrrgh kill me please. Few minutes more to kill for a day really kills me man! Do me a favour people upload more photos for miss ivy eng to see because she has nothing better to do. Watch old movies and series until about 1pm then can have lunch with Stan. Sometimes i'll walk to town to have lunch with him that's the thing i look forward the most everyday because by walking i kill more time haha!

After Stan's lunch break i'll be all alone again. Doing the same thing, job search, you tube and laundry. Sometimes too lazy to iron clothes i call my mom or my sister. Phone call helps a lot to kill time i always feel that time flies when i'm on the phone. There goes my phone bills......
Random people coming in to the room and talk to me..leaving harsh words..use your brain please! Take me for granted who do you think you are........wtf!!!! Do not disturb shhhhhhh go do your own things la wtf!

I never left the room unless a toilet break until 5pm when i have to go down and work till late night. That is the most enjoyable time in a day because i get to see people and talk to them and move around a bit how sad! I miss home terribly...my sister asked me if i wanna move to Melbourne to stay with her. To be honest i want to...with Stan too but i know it's impossible for the time being. All i have to do it wait..until he's ready! Home is where the heart is do you agree? I had a dream last night..i was back in Malaysia and plenty of nice food is waiting for me on the table and i was really really hungry...and then suddenly i woke up to find myself still at this miserable place.

If you wanna ask me why i still want to be here..why not just leave..i can only say i can't. It's not an easy decision to make because of all the commitments i have currently. I envy those of you who can make simple decisions for yourself. Why it has to be so difficult for me? I know this place is hard to get a job i know there are far more opportunities out there in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. Do you think i should leave this place?

How i wish i'm home at least i'm with my family. At least there are things i feel very comfortable with..at least my friends are Malaysians..at least i eat nasi lemak for breakfast..at least i can feel the love around me..at least i like the way Malaysians communiciate...at least i do not have to do shit loads of favours.....

If you think i have some other better things to do please do suggest. Thank you!

Karaoke anyone?

2009-04-28T20:34:00.006+10:00

It's freezing freezing cold in Tassie these few days!!! I could not feel my fingers and toes anymore!!! I wrapped myself up like a california roll EVERYDAY =)))) I want to teleport back to Malaysia and when i feel it's too hot then i teleport back here again and there again and here again...........genie grant me my wish pretty please!

My hometown friends were asking if i am getting married soon...what do you think? No signal given so it's not true okay??!!!!! Hahahaha you girls wanna be my bridesmaid or just want the ang pow weiiiii!

I'm addicted to Fish Leong's new album. Omg they are ALL so nice..very pleasant for my ears and yours too i believe. When you listen to it it makes you really wanna cry awwwwwww.....

This is one of my favourtie song and MV =)

If you watch the new Taiwanese drama 敗犬女王 (My Queen), this song would be played at the end of every episode okie dokie? The drama is super super nice okay? Pris are you watching it too?

There is another song of Fish Leong which is also very nice:

I dedicate this two songs to all my friends especially for those who believe in Love and crazily in love haha! Cherlyn and Carmen when are we going to blast the karaoke speakers again??!!!!

The biggest circus EVER!

2009-03-31T18:01:00.005+11:00

Bonjour! Bonjour!

We are going to watch Cirque du Soleil under the Grand Chapiteau in Docklands, Melbourne in May. I'm sooooo excited now =)))) can't wait already!!! The show name is Dralion means dragon and lion. Dragon represents the Eastern while lion represents the Western. Dralion derives much of its inspiration from Eastern philosophy with its perpetual quest for harmony between humankind and nature. Suspended in time between the past and the future, Dralion is a celebration of life and the four elements that maintain the natural order: air, water, fire and earth. It is a dynamic performance that transcends the boundaries of the imagination and leads us into a dreamscape with a new and sparkling perspective.

There will not be any pictures of the circus uploaded here because no cameras are allowed =(
However, visit the official website http://www.cirquedusoleil.com/ or search the video clips on You Tube to know more about this.

I discovered something new!

2009-03-15T12:43:00.005+11:00

It's been 3 months now there is still no news regarding job hunting. Is that so difficult to just offer me a job? Why does it have to take such a long time to reply *cursing* I got so many plans in my head and i really need a bloody full time job to fulfill this...of course it's not about shopping and buying branded goods (i can hear you bitching about the impossibility rawrr!!!) But that's true..forget about buying another LV or Chanel or Tiffany because there's a better place to drop the money hahahaha! I'm not gonna tell unless you ask *whistles*

I took Vincent's advice in getting a Bvlgari for darling. Cost me a bomb wth but still affordable at least to me =))))) I walked around the Melbourne CBD..got lost and could not find Collin Street apa ni?? Wore the wrong pair of shoes for shopping...hell it hurt so much and 2 small piece of flesh actually came off *crying in pain* But all is worth i would say.....time to earn back what i have spent in a day.

Met up with Carmen for dinner at Chinatown. We went to this SzeChuan restaurant called Tian Fu. My gosh the food was so spicy that it burnt our lips numb our tongue and taste buds but it's freaking freaking dellicious *two thumbs up* The place is crowded almost everyday and it is located at a not-so-obvious part of Chinatown. Good food is always hiding somewhere we just have to dig them up =))))

I went for a haircut too at one Korean hair saloon. You know when a chicken tries to communiciate with a duck. That was what happened to me and the stylist..she kept 'oooh and oooh' whenever i said something so i thought she understood what i said but it turned out to be no she did not understand. Hmmph but with sufficient body language i made her finally realized that yes i want a haircut...trim it layered and thin..that simple only =p I was undecided if i should perm or cut...i have kept my hair long since n-years ago..could not remember the last time i had short hair =)))))) I still remember i cried everytime i got my hair chopped it was like the biggest step i gave in my life *sweat*

Last module of Chartered Accountant for Stanley please give in your best!!! Do your best and God will do the rest! I have been the person like the ancient China had...someone to accompany the crown prince while he studies..yes i am! I said the wrong word once ''tai zi'' (crown prince) became ''tai jian'' (the male servant without the thing that serves the emperor or emperess ha!) Gee i almost got myself killed by darling oops!!!

Bak Kut Teh time ciaoz!!

Goodbye Esther

2009-03-05T12:44:00.005+11:00

This is to certify that Esther Tan XXXXX has achieved a successful escape from the Me Wah Restaurant in Launceston and this escape being witnessed by the remaining inmates in MW.......

Yes my one and only Penangite friend in Launceston had just left Tassie on Tuesday morning..not morning but dawn wtf! The reason is very simple..like any other girl/lady/woman would..to live happily ever after with her hubby. He works in Cairns so the last time they met was during Christmas. They were practically in a distance relationship for quite something but the painful experience has come to an end. She's leaving Tassie for good! I still remember her telling me that they usually eat in front of the webcam and talk 24/7 ....very very loving couple aren't they? =))))

I'm going to miss speaking Hokkien with Esther though my Hokkien sucks so much these days! Your cheerfulness, sense of humour and helpfulness all these while will no longer to be seen anymore at this place T____________T I MISS YOU girlfriend!!!!!

We threw her a farewell lunch at Pierre's on Monday. Nice place to dine-in..good setting and atmosphere..good food...fantastic wine list! Esther's farewell pressie was a pair of lovely swarovski sea horse from Swarovski (DUH!!) that Stan and I bought for her. Bobby and Krista gave her this nice digital photo key ring. Now she can look at our pictures everyday!!!!!

My blog must end with at least one picture of me and my baby =p

Weather is turning cold in Tassie now must dig out all the thick jumpers..... T___T

Keep yourself warm alrighty?

Old Friend and old neighbour

2009-03-02T16:48:00.007+11:00

I have been away from the world of internet for almost 3 weeks.....gosh that was loooong!

First thing i did was checking my e-mail and the next thing FACEBOOK! I usually have one or 2 friend requests if i do not log in too often and hahaha i got a few..some are really old friends from high school but some are just random people =p

I usually ignore random people..for instance those whom i have only 1 friend in common...memang random! But that was this guy which i tried to ignore the request but i accidentally accepted it ahhhhhh!!! I thought okay la i'll delete it at a later time but then he wrote on my wall a few hours after that. I went okay let's see what he wrote and this is it:

''hey, hi...never thought that i'd bump into u again...lolz...how r u? hows ur mom n dad?''

I went what the tutti frutti...!!!! Why the heck is he asking about my mom and dad? Are we that close?I don't think so........after thinking for a while and looking at his picture again and again...i finally remember hahahaha! The shy and quiet boy staying opposite granny's house! And the funny thing is even though i have known him since i was 14 we actually NEVER talk to each other..not even once T_______T We only know each other by the fact that we are just neighbours thats it! How odd things were at that time....

Gary was a friend whom i knew in my Form 2 Science tuition class. I did not know he was the neighbour... i only know we had something in common haha we wore the same pair of slippers. Gary's mom used to baby sit my aunt's youngest son and that was how i found out Gary was my granny's neighbour. My aunt used to tease both of us (not at the same time) because she thinks Gary is tall, nice and quiet hahaha! The truth is he's not that quiet as everyone thought he is in fact he's very talkative during tuition class so my impression towards him was not really great at that time. He never talks to me why why why but he kept talking to my best friend who is just sitting next to me. I remember clearly he told my aunt he was worried that i might mistakenly wearing his slippers, thinking that would be my pair of slippers wtf! The size is so different i would definitely be able to differentiate them unless i'm blind wtf! Please do not get me wrong Gary i was not mad at you la...

And yes that is how we know each other..without talking to each other..and after so many years he found me on facebook and added me. I was flattered for one second and then i realized it is a good sign actually. It actually proofs that we have all grown up..he still looks the same tall and thin. The good thing is he said i look great =)))))))))) i was flattered once again hahahaha!!!!

Oh well i came to realize that even though you were once mommy's boy or girl, after you left home you learn to grow up, be independent and make the right choices in life. No matter how rebellious you were when young, one day you are going to be a great person =p I'm a very good example but i'm not that great la okay...at least mommy does not have to worry about me anymore..no more tears rolling down her cheeks...no more sleepless nights...i'm really proud of myself =)))))) *self pats head*

Happy Birthday Daddy! May you have a wonderful birthday and many more to come! Many many happy returns of the day!!! Have a good one readers!

You've got message

2009-02-09T20:39:00.007+11:00

I'm not counting down the days you're leaving this place for you NEVER T_____T

Yowie good luck with your thesis too! Concentrate 100% and be strong! It's gonna be over real soon right? I know how much you wanna leave this place..oh well i would say okay.......

What a dream!

2009-01-27T10:55:00.004+11:00

I have been having weird dreams for the past few days...i know someone has been cursing me *sneeze sneeze* How dare you!

My facebook message went like ' I dreamt of my fingers being burnt by another friend' wtf! I was not scared of that person and i do not see the fella coming to burn my fingers or my hair la. However, the weird thing is why i dreamt of Mr. G. Since high school i always know one thing, friends come and go just like that. You do not have to have many friends, one true friend beats them all. You may not agree even i do not sometimes but it's quite true. Betrayal, heart broken moments.............

I have been friends with Mr. G for years already. I know him through a friend. Of course nobody's perfect and Mr. G has bad times, bad temper which nobody would ever wanna witness. I'm only a very regular than a regular friend to Mr. G but he always tell me and other people i'm his younger sister. At times when i was upset over something he always make sure that i'm okay and he tried to make me look at the bright side. Unfortunately, due to some misunderstandings he's no longer a friend anymore. Somebody's been telling him stuffs about me wtf! It's quite sad to know that when you did not do anything wrong, people start hating you, spreading the news around trying to make you famous for undecent stuffs....wtf!!! What is wrong with you! Thanks a whole lot to the bitches and bastards and now i dreamt of him coming to burn my fingers lalalalala....next time he'll probably come and burn down my house!!

I'm still looking for a job.....it's getting difficult these days..wrong timing and low qualifications what a mess! Cherlyn you're sooo lucky and of course you're smart okay *hugz*

Oh ya i'm challenging myself with 1000-pieces puzzle with no puzzle picture provided. They give you clues but not the real picture...the progress is still good still good hahahha! See how bored i am at this stage and i have to find something to kill time before i become a statue or mushrooms grown all over me T___________T

Back to my puzzle game bye !

Trip with Mom and Dad

2008-12-17T11:05:00.009+11:00

Since this was my parents' first ever trip to Tasmania, the place where nobody wants to live or stay long, Stanley and I decided to bring them to Hobart, Port Arthur and Mount Wellington. We drove to Port Arthur as soon as we reached Hobart. It was abut an hour and a half's drive to Port Arthur but it's definitely worth your money and your petrol =p

Let me tell you little about the history of Port Arthur. It was a convict settlement back in the 1800's owned by the British. The location of Port Arthur was so strategic back in those days because it was far away from land and there's no chance of convicts escaping from that place despite the strong and macho guards patrolling the entire place. It was also the first convict settlement in the world to have a boys prison which is called the Point Puer Boys Prison (it's a separated island from Port Arthur but not far. Also, there's a place called the Isle of Dead was used to bury free persons, convicts and paupers in Port Arthur. The only difference between the good and the bad was free persons were buried on the north side of the island with their names engraved on the tomb whereas convicts were buried without tombs.

The remaining block behind us was once rooms for convicts

On the cruise which brings us on a short tour around Port Arthur

This place was once the hospital to cure good and bad people in the settlement

On the very next day we went up to Mount Wellington. During the winter times, it is usually covered with snow. The first time i went up there was about 3 years ago and it was Easter Day. Geeeee it snowed during easter unbelievable!!!!

The whole Hobart city could be viewed from up here =p

After Mount Wellington we went to the ZooDoo Wildlife Park. Wallabies, wombats, Tasmanian devils, koalas, emus, ostriches etc....

Stanley feeding the deer......big wet tongue ewwwww!!!!

End of trip part one....we went to the gold mine two days later but i dont wanna write the post unless i have nothing to do =p

My Graduation

2008-12-17T09:41:00.009+11:00

Hellooooo readers i'm back on track again tsk tsk.......

I only managed to sit down and write this post after Mom and Dad left Launnie on Monday night. I miss them already....i could not sleep....i started crying....cry baby yadda yadda.....

I officially graduated from uni and has been admitted to the degree of Bachelor Of Biomedical Science on Saturday, the 13th of December. I'm happy..really happy because i do not have to rush for assignments and study for exams anymore...such horrible things to do during uni days..i had enough already say goodbye! *wave goodbye*

However, in a dilemma state i do not want to end uni life just like that. No concession rates for movies, bus fares and lots more..alumni does not help much..siiiigh!!!

Alrighty check Ivy Eng out with her gown and mortarboard..funny things to put on actually. And it rained so heavily that day..ruining everything..the gown became the raincoat for some people..the mortarboard became the umbrella........

Thank you Yowie for the flower-that-never-die =)

Mommy and Daddy

Mommy said this was the best shot =p

My boyfriend and the love of his life *shy*

The 3 little kittens from Biomedical

Big warm hug to Jean and For Hae for attending our graduation

Dinner at Me Wah Launceston

p.s: Jean, i like the tiny bear you gave me..see i put it on the table the whole night =))

I did not want too many pictures on my post from now on. I'm so sick of adjusting uploading pictures..sometimes i re-adjust and my pictures were GONE arrrrrgh..maybe i'm stupid or what who cares!!!!!

Movie World

On day two we explored Movie World

This was the second time to Movie World..the first time i went when i was thirteen..phew 10 years back already ish!

Here is where you meet characters of Warner Bros like Tweety, Silvester, Scooby-Doo and Shaggy, Bugs Bunny, Shrek, Batman etc.You cannot simply compare Movie World to Ocean Park in Hong Kong or Rocky World in Korea or even at a greater extent Disneyland *cough* because it is just a small small theme park. When i said small..memang small la okay =_=''

Okay no more bullshit let's take a look what's in Movie World ^_^

Oh wait must take a picture of the entrance first hehe!

Superman Escape thrill ride

Shrek 4D theatre

Into the Wild Wild West

Wild West Falls Flume Ride

Warner Bro Kids World

I thought i was 3

Camwhore with Road Runner peep peep!!!

Austin Power

Tweety big bird's ass

Silvester the naughty cat!

Scooby Dooby Doo where are you!

I did not take pictures with any of the cartoon characters except Shrek because they were nowhere to be seen i wonder why. I was so disappointed..why why why they never came out siiigh T_______T

Stay tuned for Sea World!

Sunshine on Gold Coast

2008-12-01T16:36:00.016+11:00

I'm back i'm back I'M BACK!!!!!!!

Time flies....there goes a week at Gold Coast and Brisbane =_=''

I like Queensland so much...i like the sun i like the beaches i like the shopping arcade i like walking around not in layered-up clothes but just shorts, sandals/thongs and T-shirt haha! What i wanna say is you'll definitely understand what i meant if you got stranded too long in Tassie =(

When my flight touched down at the Brisbane domestic airport, I was so happy..the breeze and the warmth of the sun....awwww it was just nice and comfortable =))))

I waited for the shuttle bus to take me to Gold Coast to meet up with mommy and Auntie Soo. While waiting for the bus, one by one i took the brochures and all the pamphlets regarding tours and places ot interests and of course THEME PARKS..how can i miss that hehe!

The journey from the Brisbane airport to Surfers Paradise took about an hour and a half and the bus stopped right in front of our accommodation. Mommy and Auntie Soo had already checked-in, only waiting for the princess to arrive. We met up with Cherlyn for japanese food that night and called it a day because everyone was tired especially mom and aunt who travelled on a 9-hour flight from Hong Kong.

If you read the newspaper or watch news on TV then you should know there were about 30,000 schoolies in Gold Coast last week. Schoolies or school leavers from around Australia were having a bigger than blast BLAST, unlimited alcohol and *ehem ehem* in the Surfers for 2 weeks. Leaving high school and college really is a thing to celebrate. These schoolies did enjoyed themselves...being drunk and high during the night and yelled ' Asians are gay' wtf! They even ran naked on the beach but only at night. Moreover, they could have the beach just for themselves...the beach was closed from 7pm to 5am just for them to party party and party! How i wish we could have one back in Malaysia but where..Pulau Pinang or Pulau Redang hahaha!

Surfers paradise yeay!

Specially dedicated to Yowie *evil grin*

My favourite things-to-do for the day...gelato!

Heeheeeeeee!!!!!

The last picture of the trip *wave goodbye*

You may have noticed why i said last picture of the trip..hehe...thats because we only managed to went down to the beach the day before we left Gold Coast! We spent too much time somewhere else shopping then theme parks then sleeping in the room......one week is absolutely not enough to waste hehehehehe!

Ciao ^^

A Day with Wii

2008-11-17T16:58:00.011+11:00

Bored bored bored day!

On Saturday morning after breaky we went to Video Ezy for dvds. That was when i saw a Wii game poster. The game is called 'Samba de Amigo' this means we can all dance now using a pair of marascas hahahaha! We decided to rent the game with the marascas for 3 nights and now after 2 days my arms are painful. I guess i did work-out somehow =))))

That's the marascas for Samba de Amigo

Omg OMG OMG

After not playing Wii Fit for months, we decided we should take it out and start playing it again. The more the merrier so we invited friends over to check it out. Bobby, Krista and Aaron were invited. I have to say we were really good at Wii *big wide smile*. One after another we challenged each other's ability on balancing games, aerobics exercise and yoga. Everybody could do it like we have been practising for long but no no that was the first time they played. The funniest part was when Stan kept complaining why we broke his record on tightrope balancing hahaha! The boys tried their career as a jockey in horse-racing too =))))

How tired Jockey Bobby was after the intensive race =p

Two jockeys getting ready for the race

Go GO GO! The pose looked funny right??!

2008-11-14T15:12:00.007+11:00

mIRC, ICQ versus MSN

2008-11-10T11:57:00.006+11:00

Have any of you miss the days of the mIRC chat room and ICQ?Well these things came across my mind one morning when i woke up..it was not from my dreams and how on earth did it cross my mind..i did not know either =_='''

Since i thought of it for a second i actually miss using them. I was introduced to mIRC when i was 13. My brother was at college so he was quite a frequent user of mIRC. What i often saw during that time was his evil smile, random laughing in front of a black screen..i was thinking what the hell....why his computer broke down already and he still could laugh =S Oh no did mom put too much pressure on him? Okay i didn't know la DO NOT LAUGH at me..i saw black screen i thought it's like those Microsoft thingie that popped out when your computer is dead omg what an idiot!!! I walked near his computer and asked him 'eh what's that..something wrong with your computer?' Then i found it it was actually a chatroom..interesting...the most interesting part is you fake every single detail in IRC..if you are honest enough to give the correct age and location or school..then you are certainly not the random chat room person. We do not make friends in chat room..it is totally a random chat..you might not even chat with the same person after once. But i kind of agree it was quite fun though!

Couple of months later my friends asked me to joined ICQ. Say goodbye to mIRC they said. Why wanna chat with random people when you can chat with your own friends plus mIRc already out-dated and so i switched to ICQ. All you need is your friend's UIN (i can remember mine till now..ya i do not have anything better to do =p) and you can start chatting. It is still somthing similar to MSN today...i would say ICQ is the sifu of MSN but obviously the sifu is getting old already..no video and audio conversation...no sharing/sending files and pictures..no emoticons..cannot send message but just pressing 'ENTER' !!!

A few more things about ICQ is we only use nicknames..unlike MSN which most people use their real names. My nickname on ICQ was B*Sweet (wtf!!!!) I could not come out with a better name so i asked one of my friends to help me with the nickname....yea he's obviously not my friend coz B*Sweet sound horrible T_______T But but but i still use it for my character in Maple Story wtf! (Speaking of Maple Story i was a level 44 cleric damn proud but i gave up hitting mushrooms to level-up =p) Back to ICQ...remember we can send our contact lists to our friends so they can add all our friends..i know it's stupid but i did that hahaha..i always asked my friend to send theirs to me..aiyoooo why am i so spastic last time!!!! Remember the IRC and ICQ language? When you first chat with someone..u go 'a/s/l pls' or 'mind to intro?'...hahaha i laughed like mad when i came to think of that. 'a/s/l' means age/sex/location but it has become the language on ICQ that everyone just went a/s/l for the first line of conversation. The authentic message alert of ICQ (remember remember??), how we send message by pressing 'SHIFT+ ENTER' or 'CTRL+ENTER' i cannot remember anymore...these are really stuffs of ICQ that has already became history in our lives. I miss using them these days......

And so today everyone is using MSN and i wonder how long people are going to use it before another new software is introduced to replace it ^^

Note: The message alert of MSN irritates me so much that i have to switch to busy mode EVERYTIME i'm online. Can they change it to something nicer???!!! Perhaps they can make it so everyone has their own signature alert like ringtones...mine will definitely be something related to JAY CHOU. 'Hello da jia hao wo shi zhou jie lun!' (Translated: Hello everyone i'm Jay Chou!) See Jay is looking for me through MSN...lalalalalalala..BOO!

T___T

2008-11-04T21:57:00.005+11:00

My first and last paper for the final semester ended few hours ago. Is this the end? Has the bachelor degree programme come to an end? I should be jumping here and there, celebrating the day because i'm done. No more exams and assignments FOR LIFE!!!

But still i'm worried. Very worried that this is no the end yet. I was not very happy with the exam today. I'm afraid i might fail and no graduation for me in December T__________T What should i do???!!!!!! I hate this feeling..really...

Pharmacology and me

2008-10-30T12:28:00.005+11:00

Okay this post shall be a short one....exam preparation in progress and since my brain is quite 'saturated' (only study for an hour T____T) i shall take a short break =p

Somehow i'm glad i didn't do pharmacy at the first place. I chose biomed over pharmacy which is good because this pharmacology unit is killing me already. Imagine if i have to memorise all the drugs and its mechanisms and sit for the exams i think i'll break down in the exam hall and fail and repeat and fail...cannot graduate then my parents will ask me to go back to M'sia because i'm wasting their money T_____T my friends will laugh at me and i'll go into depression stage and then keeeeel myself haha!

Speaking of depression, i've encountered someone with the opposite stage recently. My housemate *wink* such a long time his name didn't appear in my blog already. He's not depressed but very very very euphoric. The last time he told me he was overdose on caffeine but now i think he has too much of serotonin (the happy chemicals) already (obviously he didn't take drugs la but he still have effects of amphetamines).Serotonin makes you feel happy and the effect is even greater in him. He went from happy to very happy then to extremely happy...euphoria to high..i dont' think he'll reach the manic stage right my friend *wink* One thing bad about this situation is he'll call me Mrs Desperate *pinky pants* housewife!!!! What is wrong with pink colour?What is wrong with pink pants? I think Pris and Maggie will be against you if you don't like pink hahaha! Remember the cursing thingie i told you *coughs* so better like pink from today onwards.

Eh i can incorporate pharmacology into my friend good or bad? I can still go on and on with that but i have to refer to my notes already. Oh and one last message to the euphoric person...I hope i don't have to prescribe you with antipsychotic drugs.....perhaps you'll need serotonin antagonists to calm you down a little hahahaha!

p.s I'm not teasing or laughing..in fact i'm happy for you..don't get pissed off *wink*

New on Honey Bunny Crush

2008-10-22T17:31:00.002+11:00

From the next post onwards every post related to food i'll have a guest blogging on my blog. The guest will be giving reviews on the food, the environment and the service. Ratings for each will be given as well. Please note that the guest is also from the hospitality industry *hint* so the comments given would be very useful for future references =))

So to fellow honey bunny crush fans (LOL) please stay tuned!

Good luck to those sitting for exams (including myself) ^^

For those writing thesis or doing literature review keep working keep up the good work hang tough!

For those graduating soon congratulations!

For those going home on summer break...bon voyage! Eat all the nice food for me! Say hello to Malaysis for me....T____________T

Spring and random

2008-10-15T14:26:00.005+11:00

Spring is here and winter clothings should be washed and stored in the cupboard by now. Unfortunately, the weather fluctuates in Tassie. Warm and cold...on and off... very frustrating indeed!

My IELTS had just over last Saturday *pray hard* hopefully it will turn out okay *fingers crossed*

It is already the last semester for the entire bachelor degree..how soon! I kind of not want it to end this quick but i have to. Insufficient funds to continue for another year ot two. I'm very afraid of the next stage in life which is WORKING full-time as a medical scientist. I don't know how long i can tahan the job because it is going to be a very 8.30am to 5pm job. Not working extra hours no night shifts for a newbie..very consistent very boring! Unlike diagnostic labs, research labs are going to be far more interesting. I envy For Hae, Jean, Kong Soon and Januttha because they are doing honours. They have the brain and self-discipline which i definitely don't have. They are going to join the research team which are more exciting and more challenging.I bet they are going to enjoy their jobs so much after they have completed the course. Good luck guys!

Kong Soon and I went to the Theodoti Greek Tavern last Friday for dinner. We thought we would have a quck dinner there and off to watch the fireworks at York Park. It was Launceston show and everyone was crowding that place. Unfortunately, we missed the fireworks because we had dinner late. It was all my fault because mommy called to confirm her flight schedule and so we left the house late. Food was great price was reasonable and we enjoyed so much. I've never seen Kong Soon enjoyed lamb so much though he usually does. Well, Yowie offered me some of his dish too which was really fantastic!

I can see loads of pictures from the tulip farm are filling up the front page of facebook. The farm which is located at Table Cape, Wynyard, have really gorgeous tulips during this time of the year. I've been there twice and the one which i went last year was memorable..everybody knows why =p That was the most enjoyable trip i've ever joined with the students from the uni.

Lately, Stan and I are addicted to the 2-dollar video rentals at Video Ezy every Tuesdays. Everything for $2 including new releases and series what more can i ask for!

I visited a close friend yesterday out of random and was shocked to realize that he had a terrible fall few days ago. I feel sorry for the poor guy and hope that he gets better soon. If you're reading this buddy....let me know if you need anything alright? God bless!

1 month from now till mommy arrives in Australia. I can't wait for our vacation in November. Surfers paradise please welcome me =)))))

Our 1st anniversary =)

2008-10-07T19:28:00.012+11:00

*Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk...........*

It's our 1st anniversary today! we've been together for a year already!! This is for my mom to see *ehem ehem* She's been complaining and i shall not reveal what she told me *whispering*

Seriously this day is like any other ordinary day to me because darling's silly sweetie (Me) got the WRONG DATE for anniversary! Omg how can i ever forget anniversary since i'm one of those girls who would mark a star on this special day.Unfortunately, i thought my brain is as good as the calendar so i didn't do anything to the calendar...how silly! I've been waiting for end of October to arrive so i can make something special for darling or celebrate it somewhere hehehe! But it's just wrong wrong wrong..wrong date after all...siiiiigh what kind of girlfriend i am.

The princess was told to dress semi-formal and the pumpkin GTI would come and pick the princess up at 7pm so the princess only followed instructions. The prince charming just wouldn't let the princess know where they are heading to. So the princess took huge guesses along the way and still she didn't know it's a special day. The prince charming only shoke his head and so the princess gave up...

*Back to Ivy and Stan*

The next thing was we arrived at Novaro's italian restaurant. Actually i got it right at the first place but he just refused to say 'yes sweetie you are right you are sooooo smart' ......nebermind.......i know i'm a smart girl. Then, I saw a bouquet of roses on the table which the waitress had organized for us and i was thinking 'what is this...what is he trying to do... isn't this just a simple dinner??' And when we finally sat down he asked me ' eh you really can't remember what happened last year during this time' And i forced my brain to recall and it did ring a bell or two...yes it's anniversary omg!

This is the place where we had dinner together for the first time...i will never forget every detail.The wine the food and the conversation we had a year ago....it was really perfect ^^

And now we were back at the same old place but with a stronger relationship than before haha! I know i'm damn proud..very thick skin what to do!!! Food was great the atmosphere was right and most importantly the right person who was sitting just right in front of me.

I brought my camera but i only realized that it had ran out of battery so my mobile phone had to do the duty so quality limited ok?

Starter...oops...no....it's a purple card for me *big wet eyes*

Candles and flowers to decorate the table =p Spot the two lady bug?

A closer look but a little blurr oops! Very creative la the florist *tsk tsk*

The real starter...mixed tasting plates of oysters

Soup but don't know what is it called...can't read italian and can't remember either

I had veal cutlet with caramelised onions on top, served with mashed potatoes but why they put parsley..i don't like parsley T________T

Bon appetit!!!!

Darling getting ready to EAT!!! Seafood linguini served with extra virgin olive oil and garlic

Never forget that wine plays an important role during dinner. Jeffery grossett - Polish Hill Riesling

Thank you darling thank you very very much! Really appreciate all the effort and hopefully you're not mad at me because I GOT the WRONG DATE (no not talking about you....the date for anniversary siiiiiiiigh.......)

I heart you *goose bumps* *shy*

To all my friends *ehem ehem* wish me forever happiness okay ^_^

And the princess and her prince charming shall live happily ever after hahahahaha!

Finally, i've passed up my BJP assignment *phew* what a relief! This work is killing me and it almost kill For Hae too =p I managed to finish every sections of the assignment myself but i got so frustrated when it comes to HEADER and FOOTER. Oh well a computer idiot like me can never dealt with formatting ish ish shame on me! I called For Hae when i finally gave up adjusting the header and footer on Word. He just finished work so he said he'd come over and helped me instead of telling me through the phone which i don't think i'll understand if he tells me through the phone..becauase i would probably ended up in front of his doorstep and started crying hahaha! For Hae said this is the third time he's doing this for himself, Pris and me but i think mine was the damn ma fan case ever...sorry For Hae don't be traumatized ok? It really took him an hour doing the footer because i did something terrible to it before he could save me....sigh....my bad my bad la..

I got Moonlight Resonance withdrawal syndrome oh noooooo....say goodbye to kun ka zhai no more Ah Tsau no more Ah Yuet...i finished the MR series 2 weeks ago and i cannot tahan watching other series so i only watch Crayon Shin Chan and South Park and act like them..so addicted!!!

Come into my dreams tonight babe muahahahahah wtf!

Let's go Mexican

2008-09-18T22:27:00.011+10:00

Okay let's not talk about how to go on diet now because i broke the rules already. Not even 1 week i already broke the rules and not standing on Wii Fit anymore...god i'm so useless =_=''

Oh well I dined out 3 days in a row..... how on earth can that happenend!!!! Prickly cactus on Sunday night, Jailhouse Grill on Monday night and Smokey Joe's on Wednesday night omg i feel soooooooo OBESE now. There goes my diet plan.............T__T

I don't fancy Mexican food but i kind of like Prickly Cactus. I've been there three times, the first time was during the 1st semester dinner for 3rd year biomed students, the second and third time was with darling. A lot of memories though....let me refresh your memories peeps!!! (p.s. sorry times infinity...pictures were quite dark)

5 asians and 2 ang mohs hehe

We had margaritas in a fish bowl *wooooot*

Januttha, Prissy and Hetty

Kong Soon's evil look trying to tell the whole world how lucky he was to share drinks with 2 beautiful girls *whistling*

Alrighty that was the first time at Prickly Cactus, the more the merrier i agree but we only ate chimichangas because we didn't know what to order so i went with Stan again but pictures were taken during the third visit.

Me while waiting for the food

Camwhoring with darling..why is my left ear sticking out of my hair =_=''''''

Mexican style oysters as starters

Mexican deep fried mushroom as another starter

Lalala BBQ pork ribs...the portion damn big okay..we couldn't finish..sorry arr ribs wtf

Sizzling chicken and prawns fajitas

Ish i felt very satisfying and guilty at the same time....because we ate a lot i know....alamak how!! Then when we got back to the restaurant Bobby suggested that we had dinner at Jailhouse Grll the follwing day...few thousand calories added....it was one of our friend's birthday yesterday and we went Smokey Joe's..another few thousands of calories...and the calories stayed in my body until now still havent burn them away...call me ivy the fatty bom bom please!!!

The food at Smokey Joe's is almost similar to Prickly Cactus..i still prefer the latter ones hehe! By the way i watched The Mummy 3: The tomb of the dragon emperor. I enjoyed the show wayyyyyyyyyyyyy better than The Dark Knight omg....that show was killing me i don't understand why maybe i dont like bats after all....and i'm very scared of painted faces humans........oh no!!

Rushing my BJP.......HELP ME!!!

Have to start planning our trips

I wanna go to Queensland but it would be very very hot at that time

=((((((((((

Got a phone call from Cherlyn last week

She's going for an interview....good luck girl!!!

No more Sydney trip until next year

But definitely going to Melbourne on X'mas with darling

Tickets not yet booked T________T

Only have one day of lecture each week

Miss going class every now and then

Miss gossiping with Prissy during Steve's lectures hehehe

Lots of funny stuffs to share with you Prissy

Came across Cirque de Soleil

They're coming to Australia

I wanna go but tickets are quite expensive

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes brought their daughter to watch too

Mommy watched it in Macau it was superb!!

Had a fight with darling yesterday

It was raining outside

He was worried that i might flood the Launceston city

But relationship often grows stronger after each fight *shy*

I'm sorry for being over-reacted

Getting a day off tomorrow

Might be going to Smokey Joe's for dinner tomorrow

Any recommendations?

Hundreds of I wish

2008-09-08T09:47:00.003+10:00

Ehem i shall delay my Malaysia trip to the next post.......now let me tell you folks what i wanna do...what i wanna buy...where i wanna go...what i wanna eat...

I'm still thinking of the Melbourne trip which i didnt make it because i was terribly sick but i really wanna go again but difficult la i know...no holidays for me and darling anymore....have to wait till x'mas i guess T____T

We planned everything and eventually we didn't make it. Darling told me Princess Mary of Denmark went to Flowerdrum in Melbourne few days ago (it's a chinese restaurant in Chinatown which had won many many awards...i remember it was one of the top 100 or 150 restaurants in the world. See even the members of the royal family chose to dine in there. The location is not obvious...good food is always be found at those lorong-lorong as usual. Absolutely the best in Melbourne so far.....but have to book 1 month in advance if not have to watch people eating from the outside =p Also we mentioned about Tetsuya at Circular Quay in Sydney, Vue de Monde in Melbourne.......................when can i go??!!!

My mom went travelling again with my grandpa and aunt. This time they went Macau and Korea. Korea omg Korea how can she went without bringing me. But i'm happy she went because she has been working too hard all these while and most importantly it's FREE =)))))) Flew with Cathay Pacific on a business class what more can they ask for...what more can i ask for if i have the chance. Thanks to Aunt Soo for the privilege the airlines provided. Mommy didn't call me last week and i miss her already *sob sob*

I told darling i wanna go to this place that place...all he said is let's start saving then!!! Had a bet with him yesterday. Both of us wanna lose weight so we can look better when mommy arrives. Approximately 2 months from today. However, if one of us lost in the bet which means if we didn't lose 1 kg there's a price to pay. The loser will have to do whatever the winner says..hahahaha imagine if i won..hmmph..ngek ngek...for those who know my new name i want that one! No supper no fast food eat less and make use of the new Wii Fit!!!! (p.s Yowie played until 4am when i brought it home) you can imagine how useful and fun it is. i also found out Yowie broke new records on Wii playing super hula loop...omg he's such a great swivel!! Now i wanna break his records already. Wii Fit is definitely worth buying because as you accumulate work-out minutes you get to unlock new games in each session. It has Yoga, muscle work-outs, aerobic exercise and balance games. I thought it was easy but it's not....especially the balance games i'm so unbalanced damn!

Mid semester break is over....class resumes tomorrow what the tutti frutti! I've done nothing for the entire week i didn't go anywhere except a day trip to Hobart T____________T God i'm so pathetic wth!

Home is where the heart belongs to

I've never lived in a real house before. I've been living in our own shop situated in this small town called Sungai Petani in Kedah. Though it's a small town it's a million times better than Launnie because it has food that i love, it is the place where i grew up and it is also where i shed my first tear because of a high school crush =p

Let's not talk about bad memories..i only wanna share good memories...and i'm dying to bring you on a mini tour into my house..i've moved from the shop to a real house!!!

The piece of land where we built our house was actually a small yard planted with bananas....reminds me of pontianak omg =S but it has turned into a beautiful semi-detached house today. Let's take a good look =)

The view of my house from the outside.

(p.s. me not from architecture so i use simply english =p)

A peep into the dry kitchen area

The living area...erm...mom and Nikki were models *wink*

The home theatre...it was empty when i took this picture.....i wonder how it looks like now

And that's my room...i dont know why mom chose pink for my room.....

Hmmph no pictures of the rooms upstairs because i think those are personal spaces..sorry......

More about my trip back home on the next post so stay tune =)))))))

Missing in action

2008-09-04T09:23:00.010+10:00

I've been missing for a week and now i'm back again =p sorry for not updating for quite sometime as i was very sick and depressed for the entire 1 week. Thanks for all the messages and concerns from all my friends. You guys had never made me feel that warm before and sorry Jan Jan because i didn't reply your messages on msn most of the time...i passed out sometimes when i was chatting........

Seriously i had never felt that upset before....down down down to the maximum...omg were those signs of depression i hope no but i recovered!!!

Thoughts that popped out while i'm in the stage of 'depression'.......

1. Home sick---Why do people tend to start missing home when they're sick..i'm one of them ish ish...I miss home especially mommy i miss the food (i've been dreaming about it everyday and felt a little satisfied when i woke up) i miss my friends in Malaysia i miss my room and i can't wait to see the newly renovated home theatre situated in the best place on earth a.k.a my home sweet home!!!! My brother has been telling me how fantastic it is.....and i really wish i can go back as soon as i can!

2. Friends----Cherlyn as usual...she's always the first person that comes across my mind when i need to talk. I wonder how is her job seeking progress going on...shouldn't be a problem laa she's a smart girl. Good things happen to good people not the other way around. I'm glad to have known my classmates in Launceston they are really really true friends..when i said true it is very very true hahahaha! The circle is small and therefore not complicated. Sorry i'm being a bit bias when it comes to 'people in Tasmania'...gee this place is too small but extremely complicated...arrrghhhhh damn!

3. Studies---i havent start writing my scientific paper how how how??!!! Sick until couldn't sit properly and start typing. I'm worried..ten times worried than usual because i dont wanna screw up the final semester and end up not graduating...*shame shame*

However, i fell grateful and thankful that Stan is always next to me when needed, treating me like a princess hehe! Our Melbourne trip was cancelled eventually but he made it up to me by bringing me to Hobart and we ate so much omg! Thank you darling!! You mean more than the world to me!

This is me when i'm in the stage of depression *sigh*
^_^

I miss her

2008-08-28T21:00:00.005+10:00

To my darling Cherlyn, if you're reading this i hope you're right here next to me....

Hmmph i miss Cherlyn so badly especially now..... i don't know why...i miss having her stayng just next to my room...i miss her solving my personal problems.....i miss her sharing all the laughters and pain...i miss her cookings..i miss her herbal chicken soup...i miss her making my hair....i miss walking 1 hour to and fro to the uni with her....i miss sharing food with her....i miss gossiping about the person we dislike in her cosy room...i miss exploring Tassie with her...i miss her telling me not to worry about the future...i miss her patting my head telling me everything's gonna be alright...i miss her terribly and sometimes i wish she never left Tassie! Separating with the best friend is not something easy..the feelings are just similar to having a long distance relationship. Imagine cereals without milk...that's exactly how am i feeling right now. She's like a big sister to me and at this very moment i really need this big sister......

Angry post

2008-08-25T12:12:00.003+10:00

Arrrrrghhhhh this really pissed me off to the maximum! I was at work on Saturday and everything was slow and easy that night at the restaurant. Obviously i was in great mood because i dont have to wash and wipe so many glasses which i really dislike doing it. No work no money what to do..reality is that cruel most of the time. Okay back to the angry thing.....the restaurant have just bought a new and very powerful vacumn cleaner and that was the first time i used it. The suction was damn powerful you can't simply remove it from the carpet. Poor me actually vacumned until i was really really frustrated and here comes Mr. J. Mr. J works in the kitchen and he likes to come out to the dining area and have a bit of chat with the staffs when all the customers are gone. At that moment, me and the powerful vacumn cleaner actually blocked his way. Omg i can't believe i actually admit that i blocked his way. Come on la the dining area is not small okay why didn't he use other way to get to the bar area. Another thing that pissed me off was his shoes were dirty really ditry because of the kitchen floor. Not the first time he walked out to the dining area with dirty shoes when i'm already finished vacumning wth!!! Guess what he thought the innocent vacumn cleaner blocked his way..he just KICKED it away. I tell you what.... i was soooooooooo angry at him until i couldn't eat that night. Do you understand how i feel what a selfish person....For Hae saw me walking into the kitchen and asked me to have dinner and i told him Mr. J pissed me off again! He felt sorry but there's nothing we can do about it. He didn't even apologize and so don't expect me to talk to him..not even a word from that day onwards..no actually long before that night.......

Why why why why there are such selfish people in the world and why must i actually met them!!!!

She's back in town

2008-08-21T15:24:00.017+10:00

Yesh yesh yesh she's back!!!!Cherlyn was back in Launnie for her graduation! I've been waiting for her return for 8 months already....and yeay finally she's back! God knows and everyone knows how much i miss her when she's not around. Imagine me separating with my wife for so looooooog thats very painful and heartbreaking okay!! I have so much to share with her..poor girl she really is. She was forced to listen to my grandmother stories with i had accumulated for 8 months long. However, she just left Launnie AGAIN with her parents yesterday morning *sob sob* Hahaha everyone thought i would definitely cry like a baby but i'm please to tell you all that i didnt cry at all. I only feel upset la but i would start saving money and find her in Sydney. Darling wait for me okay? Just need a little time to start saving =p

Here are some pictures taken during Cherlyn, Yowie, Jean and For Hae's graduation.

When the junior meets the seniors =)
Yowie and Cherlyn in their gowns (p.s: I bought the bears!!!!)

Few days later, both Cherlyn and Yowie brought their parents around Tassie. Since i have nothing better to do, I followed them hehehehe!! We went to the Cradle Mountain and Marakoopa Cave. Weather was good that day but there was less snow already bo syiok laaaa. And of course we stopped by the Honey Farm for some cravings.

Mrs Chan said we were very childish *sweat*

I know......it's the twin again =p

I sincerely hope that i can get to meet chan chan real soon..geee am i lesbian?i dont think so cause i have Stanley and she has Victor..as clear as water kekeke! What i hope for now is that she lives happily ever after with her hubby in Sydney, everything goes smooth sailing for her including jobs seeking and last but not least may God bless her family on a safe trip back to Malaysia!!
