Penang Trip (last entry)

Day 3

After Butterfly Farm, we went to The Botanic Garden.It was a nice place to have a picnics and jogging. It was hot sunny day. Too hot that I was so lazy to walk. It tires me. But, I forced myself to keep walking.

Vi, Khai Wen and Shaz were so eager to find the waterfall. I was so eager to stay under a shade. haha. After walking for so long(it feels like it) we found a tiny waterfall. Ugh.

It was kinda boring for me as my feet hurts from the hiking. I couldn't wear slippers because it hurts even more. (thank god i brought 2 pairs of slippers) I was thinking about the broken slipper. I could imagine Ellise being mad at me. So, I decided to not say a word when I get home until the time is right. Or should I just buy a new pair of Roxy slippers? Well, she has 5 pairs. some imitation and some original. Unlike me, I don't have slippers.

Anywayy.....

lets fast forward to the part where we went to the beach again. This time we went to the gigantic rocks. We wanted to see the sunset.

One missing. Thanks to Shaz.


Picture taken by Kok Siang.
Don't be deceived by the colour os the water. Its very dirty.
I was so disappointed when I saw it.

Vi was talking about how beautiful the scenery was at the rocks coz there was a orange tree. I was the only girl there, AGAIN.

The rocks were covered with barnacles. Some of them are still alive and were stepping on it!!! The guys were ahead of me coz I was a little afraid of jumping from one rock to another barefoot.

You see... they left me behind. =(((((

Okay. No, they will never leave me behind. They guys were helping me jumping from one rock to another. They made like a "bridge" and their hands to that I could catch them and not fall. It was quite tough coz I am not so good with my balance.

Well, we made it!
Of all the pictures, I love this picture the most.
(click the picture to enlarge)






Poser.

okay.. I can't help it. Im also a poser.
*giggles*

Khai Wen.


and Kah Fai.


We were trying to take a picture with the sunset but the lighting is just not on our side?

2 people is missing from this picture.
It sad that neither of us (Kok Siang and I) have a picture that has all of us in it.

Look at the sun!








Beautiful isn't it??

As the sun sets, we tried to take more pictures of us. I suggested the we put my camera on a rock and set it on self timer.


1st attempt. Jhun Ren missing.


Still missing. 2 person actually.

Final attempt.
haha. Then, my battery was dead.
I got bitten by so many mosquitoes.

ugh. I hate my camera battery.

At night, we went to a bazaar or night market to grab a bite to eat. I ordered char kuay teow again coz I don't know what else to eat. I forgot to tell the man not to add prawns in it. ugh. So, I had to order another plate.

That night, all of us planned to watch the sun rise. I was so eager to watch it but I overslept. I was too tired to wake up.

On the 4th day, I was out of money. Seriously out of money. But, thank god I got a cousin living in Penang.He lend me some money so that I could go home and spare some extra money to fill my tummy.

Throughout the trip, I was really enjoying myself. I'm sure the other feel the same. Although at the beginning of the trip I was so angry that 4 of us missed the flight. I did not sleep for 48 hours. I cried on the 3rd day coz of something. Charmaine and a few other guys cheered me up. One promised me a cendol and the other promised me an ice cream. haha!

I don't really feel like blogging about Penang Trip anymore. Enough said. We all had fun. I can't wait for next year's trip. Bali? or Phuket? haha.. I just hope we have enough money to go there.

Love you guys and girls so much!!!

Penang Trip Day 3 (Part 1)

Day 3 (Part 1)

I woke up having a few red patches on my skin. I knew that this was coming and I swallowed a tablet of Loratidine (Clarytine). We had breakfast and hop onto our van. Our first plan for the day is to the Butterfly Farm. As some of you know, one of us is very afraid of butterflies and this was the time for him to get over it (hopefully).

Before that, Mr Yap brought us to a jetty. I don't really know why we were there but it was a beautiful sight of the horizon. Perfect to watch the sunset or sunrise. At 12 p.m, it was neither. We were under the blazing hot sun.

He made us walk on wooden planks that looked like its gonna crash and yet its standing so strong.


I have a slight phobia of heights as some of you may know. Just a little. Even hiking up Penang Hill and looking down I'm A fat pig n creeps me out. At least I am able to control by not looking down. But, I can't get my eyes off the wooden planks. I just walked too see whats install for me at the end of it. The scenery was spectacular.

I really like it despite the glaring sun and the heat.


The water was greenish blue. I've seen better water colours in Langkawi . I really like it despite the glaring sun and the heat. You might just spot some fishes or jellyfish(pic) while walking along the planks.


Not all of us are in this picture. Kah Fai is missing in this pic. I guess it was too hot that he don't even feel like walking. I was also quite afraid that I'll be more tanned. My skin has 2 shades of colour and I don't really like it. Thanks to all the activities under the sun in Langkawi 3 months ago.


The first time I saw this picture, I felt moved. I know that this trip will most probably be our last time we have the chance to spend our time with each others as classmates and friends. Credits to Charmaine for this picture. Its better than my picture above.



Anyway....


Welcome to Penang Butterfly Farm!

Shaz was already sweating like crazy. We entered The farm and

SURPRISE!!!!!


Butterflies were everywhere!













Butterfly pupa. They are real.

I have the tendency to do this. Seriously.
I didn't know until I saw this sign. Poor butterfly.



As I was walking, I came across this little butterfly.
It was surrounded by ants and the ants were carrying it to store as food? maybe?

Shaz was terrified with all the butterflies flying everywhere. Poor guy.

I took some random pictures.

omg. kinda disgusting and yet so fascinating.


This reminds me of some bugs I ate in Bangkok. So similar.
Its the process of becoming a butterfly.


It start out looking so dusgusting that you despise it.
Af all the process, it blossomed into a beautiful butterfly with colourful exoskeleton and some of are "mumified" for personal collecrtion/decoration.



Ewww...

After butterfly Farm, we went to Botanic Garden. It was kinda boring there since it was so hot and most of us are so lazy to walk. We went to a small waterfall and played with sand. haha.

You know, throughout the trip I felt like there was some sort of tension in the air. There was a slight conflict going on here and there. Hmm... I'm not sure how to describe it but it was not a pleasant feeling at all. It tires me. I guess we can't escape from it. It is bound to happen one way or another. We talked about things. Some of it made me laugh and some of it makes me sad. The hardest part will be saying goodbye? Lets see about that.

Till this day, I still can't believe I broke my slippers again!! Sheeshhhh.... I am so afraid of wearing slippers/flip flop nowadays. =.=

To be continued..... This post is quite long since I took more pictures. haha.

Penang Trip Day 2

Day 2, 9th march 2009

Sometimes, I don't know why the hell do I even bother to write such a long post. haha. Maybe I just have the urge to do so. I can't really remember what we did on the 2nd and 3rd day because its all mixed up in my mind now.

We took more pictures on the 2nd day. All of us woke up quite early for breakfast. We get to see each other sleepy and blur faces. I was still tired from yesterday but eventually got over it a few minutes later. Charmaine and I were cracking our head on what to wear and what to bring.

Our plans for the day was Penang Hill and Butterfly Farm. Later at night, we'll be watching Watchmen.

We had breakfast somewhere... I can't recall where. I had Lor Mee and Milo Ice for breakfast. The mee was quite good. The others had a combinations of Prawn Mee, Curry Mee and Porridge.

After our satisfying breakfast, all of us started sweating already. I don't know if it is just me or any of us, but the weather is blazing hot. I forgot to bring extra packets of tissues. So, I told one of the guys to stop at the Petrol Station to but one big packet of tissues. One of them ended up buying a box of tissues instead of the packet ones.. o.O?

We reached Penang Hill about 11.30 a.m I think. The ride up to Penang Hill is so boring. I've been there before and why would I wanna take a ride up there again right? I guess all of us thought about the same thing. So, this time we took a detour. We did not take the tortoise train up the hill.

We hiked up the hill instead. That is why Charmaine and I were fussing about what to wear. haha! None of us went hiking up a hill before and its our first time. I brought the wrong shoes with me. I did not know that we're going hiking. I wore my Converse shoes, since its the only shoes I brought. At least I am wearing shoes. Our dear friend Khai Wen and Kah Fai wore slippers.

At first I thought it will all be easy and boring since we're just gonna walk on some pavements up the hill. Even though, there are people who already hiked this hill before by their visible trails on the soil and markings on every tree it was a challenge for all of us. According to our tour guide, My Yap, The height of Penang Hill is 5 km. He said the we would last 5 km at all. The most will be 2.5 km. Ah well..

We took the jungle trail instead of the ones with pavement. All of us were so energetic. I was so excited to be in the forest, again. It has been almost 6 years since the last time I went into the forest. It felt so good to be close to nature again. For the first hour, our climb up was great! At least, to me. Kah Fai was already asking, "Are we reaching 2.5????"

I don't have the chance to take any pictures. I don't wanna miss out all the adventurous climbing. I felt afraid a little because I was slightly afraid of heights and my body balance wasn't as good as the others. Throughout the journey, some of us were singing out loud. I tried to sing along but I was out of breath. All of us were also laughing about the fact that KW and KF are hiking up with slippers. We reached the first checkpoint.

I never knew that there was a checkpoint. We had free drink. They served us black coffee and water. Water is be the best option. I don't really drink coffee. We need tissues!!!!!! haha. This is where one box of tissues is put into use. XD. Khai wen was our tissue supporter! We took some pictures and also took a short break.

Kok Siang, one of the photographers. He's taking a picture of me.

and I'm the other photographer, I'm taking a picture of Kok Siang. XD



Kacau la you, Shaz.. Ish....


So, I decided to crop out his face. but then, the first one still look better.
Maybe because I camwhored too much. No wonder he make that expression.


Us.


and us again. =)

So, after all that we continue our hiking again. Some of the boys are staring to fart all the way. Its just disgusting. ugh! How can you people fart so much!!!?!We all eat the same food most of the time but ughh....Then they will just start laughing at each others fart. OMG.... Then they just start talking about shit which I do not want to elaborate. Eeek!

We took more frequent breaks as we go on further. All of us were bathing in sweat. But, no one cares. I was really enjoying myself. I am not really an outdoor person for the past 6 years. I miss being an outdoor person. I used to go swimming, jungle tracking and stuffs like that. Hiking/ Climbing up Penang Hill was so refreshing. The air was so cooling and breezy. I love it. I stopped swaeting.

After walking on muddy and slippery trails, we've reached 2.5. All of us were quite tired from all the climbing, walking and jumping. My feet was hurting. Maybe because of the flat sole. Not suitable for hiking. haha. KF and KW were so proud of hiking up with slippers as their slippers were almost flattened.

As we hiked up further, mist are starting to appear from nowhere.



Credits to KS, for all of the pictures below.




As we go up higher, the could turned from sky blue to grey. I was worried.
About 7 years ago, I went jungle tracking when it was raining cats and dogs. Its not a pleasant sight for those who are wearing glasses. I was also afraid of the slippery soil because there was one I slided down the hill because I lost my grip. I scratched my palms and elbows. haha. Good times.

Thank god it never rain. I have shortness of breath more frequently. After every short break, I rose up feeling energised again. The cycle goes on. We reached to a point where we have to walk on tarred roads. It wasn't a relief.

The road was amazingly steep. I think its like 70 degrees. For the first half an hour, I was okay and after that, my whole leg hurts. I do walk a lot on a regular basis. The pain was there at the beginning but it went away after a while. However, this time was different. My leg muscles were stretched to the limit. It ached. ugh!

The road was so steep all the way up. Every corner we took, we were happy that it was all done. Just when I thought we are almost reaching the top, the next turn bring us an even steeper climb . Ahhhhh!!!!! Help me....
The higher we go, the steeper the road, that's my hypothesis.


My conclusion : the hypothesis is accepted. My Yap who was guiding us all the way was ahead of us. All of us saluted him for having such high stamina to climb up Penang Hill. He is already 60 years old and he was ahead of us all through. He had to wait for us and helped us all the way up. He said, he does this 2 times every week. Wow. and..... People actually live up there. I see houses, motorbikes and vehicles going up and down.

5 km. When we reached Penang Hill, all I want was a big bottle of cold water. But, I had chocolate ice cream. We took some pictures and damn, I felt so good. I felt that I've accomplished something - losing weight.


All of us were already thinking about having a massive lunch or dinner. It was already 3.3o p.m. We took the train down Penang Hill. No way we're gonna hike down. haha!

This activity is not for people who has breathing problems. Seriously. I might wanna go hiking again someday. All of us do, I think. This time, none of us were prepared for what is coming ahead. Climbing up Bukit Bendera/Penang Hill is such a great way to escape the monotony and predictability of life. All of us are so random. And wonderful things happens out of randomness. I don't know if I can find anyone else besides my friends who are willing to do these things.

After that, we went to a Asam Laksa Hawker stall nearby a market not far away from Penang Hill. Jun was talking about this stall almost everyday and how eager he wanted to eat it again. We manage to find 2 tables for the eight of us. We had Sugar Cane juice/ Air Tebu. Asam Laksa was super deeeeelicious! There are traces of prawns in the soup that I was worrying so much but I was too hungry to think about it. It was the best food I've ever tasted in Penang. hahaha! Shaz and Jhun ordered another bowl each.

Butterfly Farm was postponed for the 3rd day. We head back to our hotel, bathed and rest.

Later that night around 7.30 p.m, we waited for Mr. Yap at the lobby for our movie at Gurney Plaza. We waited quite long outside the hotel. There was a traffic jam in front our hotels. At the same time, I suspected some tension in the air. Maybe its just me. There was an accident along the road. ugh. How convenient. All of us were starving to death already.

our movie was at 9.25p.m. Thank god we made it for the movie but not dinner at Gurney Drive. =(




The movie was alright. I love Rorschach. The movie was funny and sarcastic.
I was trying so hard to understand the show. haha.

After the movie, we walked to the food place next to Gurney Plaza. While walking, something happened again. I broke my slippers, AGAIN! All my friends burst into laugther. Shit la. Why is this happening to me. First time it happened, one of the guys piggy-backed me. Now, its happening all over again. I had another piggy-back ride. But then, I don't want to be piggy-backed as so many people were staring.

So, Kok Siang came up with a brilliant and yet genius idea! Rubber bands!!!! He told me to tie the rubber bands on my feet and slippers and guess what????

IT WORKED!!! OMg, I was ecstatic!!! That night, I ate 2 plates of Char-Koay Teow. It wasn't as nice as the first night I tried it but edible. Maybe its because it was from a different stall. They weren't many shops after midnight. I was a little surprised. We finished at 1 a.m and we head back to our hotel to have a good night sleep.

Time now : 6.16 p.m

Wow.. it took me 3 hours to blog this post. haha!

Penang Trip Day 1

Day 1, 8th March 2009


We rushed to KL
Sentral in 10 minutes. It was such a relief as we thought we were late. We got onto the bus and waited down there for 45 minutes. It is already 5.15 a.m.

I was already feeling uneasy. Finally, after the bus was filled up, the bud finally made its move. I slept halfway in the bus. I was awaken by the sudden brake. I hate it when buses or any vehicle does this.It always throws me forwards. Thank you Newton. Law of Inertia.

In my head, all I could think of is "shit. crap. yer.... when are we reaching!!!!!??" About 45 minutes later, we got down the bus and started running, running and running. You know, like in those shows. We were already late. As we were running, we were trying to find the booth for us to check in.

Running, looking, running and looking..... We can't find anything. It was already 20 minutes before our 6.55a.m flight. We asked around about how to check in and all of them told us,

"I'm sorry, the check-in booth to Penang has already closed"

15 minutes before 6.55 a.m.

Kok Siang, Vinaya, kah Fai and Khai Wen already check-in and they are still stuck with us. The 4 of us, Jhun, Shaz, Charmaine and I panicked. We we not prepared for this at all. I never thought this is actually happening.

Anyway, we asked around again on how to solve this.

"I'm afraid you have to purchase a new flight ticket because the gate has already closed"

10 minutes before 6.55 a.m.

"Kok Siang, I think you guys should go first without us or else you'll miss your flight and the ticket would be a waste!! Don't worry about us, we'll find a way to get there."

Kok Siang and the others was kinda angry. Suddenly, there was an announcement calling for Kok Siang, Vinaya, Khai Wen and Kah Fai to board the plane.

So, we tried begging them to let us in but they just won't allow it. At that moment, I was hoping that those dramas I've watched will come true. Us, checking in late and the air-steward(ess) will let us in and everything was fine and dandy.

Too bad. We were stuck down there. The 4 of us were angry, disappointed and frustrated. We only had 1 hour of sleep. The night before, I only had 4 hours of sleep. Ugh. *inserts profanities!!!!!!!!*

We bought new tickets. A one way ticket to Penang that cost RM 150 each. Coming back from Penang to KL will not be a problem as we can still use the tickets we purchased earlier. *inserts profanities!!!!* Now, I am short on RM 150. Now, I have enough money to spend in Penang.

6.55 a.m

The earliest flight to Penang is at 11.10 a.m. We had 4 hours to spend. We went to McDonalds. We played cards, ate mcd breakfast and tried to get some sleep. You know, now I hate McDonalds. Almost everything from the menu shrunk and the price is just so freaking expensive. I hate their breakfast menu. Big breakfast taste like crap, I quote by friends. Its too small. I find is quite small for myself too. =.=" I bought a McFlurry about 1 week earlier and I was so shocked to see how tiny the McFlurry was.

The cup shrunk to half of its original size and yet the price is more expensive!!! WTH!!! I questioned the mcd guy, "Eh, Why mcflurry became so small????" He told me its still the same amount (as in the content). grrrrr.... Thinking about it cheesed me off.


A sundae cone (vanilla) - Before ( RM 1.05) / After (RM 1.50)
McChicken meal set - The price increased from RM 6.80 to RM 10 something.
same goes to the rest.

Anyway, the four of us were stuck at LCCT for 4 hours. I was so hungry that I gave in to mcd. Shaz and Charmaine finished theirs already. Jhun said. "I die also wont order mcd" LOL. Ah well, The only think I love about mcd is their fatty french fries and thememories I had when I was there.



We boarded our flight at 11.00 a.m. We missed watching the sun rise. It was Shaz and Jhun's first flight. Its my third time flying and I was so worried about the pain in my ears that happened to me in the first 2 flights. Really, it hurts and I was so paranoid.


Well, we reached Penang at last. We met up with the other 4 and checked in to our room. We went for lunch at some stall. I was so hungry and ordered something. My Iced Milo was tasteless. 45 minutes later, my food did not arrive. I asked them where is it and they said they ran out of it. *Insert profanities!!!!!* I did not eat anything for lunch. We went back to our hotel and slept.

We went to Gurney Plaza that night, bought tickets to watch Marley and Me & Watchmen for the following night. We went to Gurney Drive to eat. I was starving that I ate 2 plates of Char Kuay Teow. Nothing much on Day 1.



Marley & Me was a touching show. I cried watching that show.


I've seen so many rainbows but this is the biggest rainbow I've ever seen.

That's all we did for Day 1.

Penang Trip Part I

About 2 months ago, Jhun, Shaz, Kok Siang and I planned to have a trip to some place before we go our own separate ways. It was 10.30p.m and i think I already started working, I'm not so sure. We crashed at Jhun's place to plan out everything. We googled where are we going. Most of us wanted Pulau Perhentian.

Pulau Perhentian it is.

But then,one thing strike our mind, is it monsoon season??? There goes our geography. None of us remembered. I got an A for my geography for PMR and yet I can't remember. XD Tru enough, it was monsoon season and an air tickets there is way over our budget. About RM 600 or so.

So, we had to find another island. On our list, we had Langkawi and Pangkor. We just got back from Langkawi in December and I've been to Pangkor at least once a year. So, the only Island left was Penang. =)

We googled our hotels and air tickets. Jhun booked everything for the 8 of us. From the air tickets, bus tickets and accommodation. Thank you very much!!
Our plane ticket is RM 80 (return flight),
bus ticket from KL Sentral To LCCT Terminal (vice versa) is RM 18,
Hotel accommodation is about. RM 100 per person for 4 days and 3 nights.

We all love cheap prices. Don't we? We're not rich kids. We booked the cheapest flight available. We stayed at the cheapest hotel we could ever find, Sri Sayang Hotel. I had almost everything we need. Its a 3 room apartment with 2 toilets, 2 balconies, a living room and a kitchen.

Our holiday is from 8th March to 11 March 2009. We assumed that our SPM results will be out on the 12th. haha. Well, our assumption was right.

So, here is what we did on the 7th and 8th (Day 1).

On the 7th, Shaz, Jhun and I went out shopping for our stuffs. Shaz wanted to buy a pair of jeans and shirt. too bad none of them fit him. Not even the largest size fits him nowadays. Eat la some more and no exercise. XD
Jhun was looking for a shirt and jacket. He only bought a shirt from Body Glove.
As for me, I wanted to buy a jackets and a pair of sandals. Sadly, I did not buy anything because I can't find anything nice. The guys said I am picky. SWT.

We walked from KLCC to Pavilion to Sg. Wang and to Times Square. My feet hurts from all the walking. As we were walking at these places, I noticed that there's like a sudden overpopulation of people in groups with colourful attire. You know what I mean if you actually walk along Pavilion to SG. Wang and to Times Square. Shaz and Jhun said I'm allergic to these kind of people. Yes, I am.

Here is what I think of them,
Most of them have no sense of style. Some of them looked okay but the others are just too painful to look at. They are like everywhere that area!! Maybe its their so called territory, I don't know. They are loud and loves to shuffle. ugh.I feel terrified around them.

We were out for the whole day. We ate sushi for dinner. We ate at Ichiban Boshi at Pavilion. It was our first time and we gave it a try. It tuned out to be really good. Better than Sushi King (obviously) and Sakae Sushi. I want to try Nippon Tei and Saisaki next time.

He love tuna so much.lol


I love to eat and take pictures so much!

Shaz loves green tea so much!
We keep calling the waiter/waitress but none of them saw us. So, he had to put up his oh-so-cute-begging face for some refills!


I had this!


and this!!!
Salmon Sashimi with Cheese and Spring Onions!

One thing that all of us can't stand about eating in a Japanese Restaurant is the Sushi Counter.


The food constantly pass by our very own eyes. Every plate that passed by, the temptation of taking a plate of it is just almost unbearable. I hate rotating sushi counters. grrr...

Later that night, Shaz, Charmaine and I crashed at Jhun's place for a movie, Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging. Its a British movie. It was a good movie.It will definitely make you laugh. We crashed at his place because out flight is at 6.55 a.m and we have to leave by 4am. We watched the movie until 2.30a.m. I was so so sleepy that I went home to sleep for 1 hour? Charmaine tagged along. Usually, we'll just stay there for the night but I wanted to go home.

I set my alarm at 3.30 a.m but I overslept until 4 a.m. That is where Kok Siang called and woke me up. He told me that Shaz and Jhun are not picking up the phone. So, I called them hoping that they are already awake but they are not. omg...

We rushed to KL Sentral in 10 minutes. It was such a relief as we thought we were late. We got onto the bus and waited down there for 45 minutes. It is already 5 a.m.

The worst has yet to come...

To be continued... Stay tuned for more..

SPM Results!

He llooooooooo everyoneeeeeeeeeee!!! I'm back!!

For the past 1 weeks, I've been busy with outings after outings. It was bittersweet for me. nothing lasts forever and life goes on. I resigned about a week ago as Nando's Call Centre Agent. It was fun, stressful and i learned that the "Customer is Always Right" policy is so overrated. People misuse it. ugh. Normand.

Ok la, I'm sure you people wanna know how was my SPM results right???
Well, it was alright la. For me at least. I am a little disappointed with what I got. Oh well, its all said and done. I got,

7 A1's and 3 B3's.

I was hoping for straight A's or at least 9 A's. ....
I got B3 for Add Maths, Physics and sadly, Biology. I don't know what went wrong as i know how to answer all the questions and understand it perfectly. ugh. Its so frustrating. I am not really that good at Physics all along, just average. I wasn't sure what to expect for add maths but oh well. I'm not a smart-ass when it comes to studying. hehe.

People asked me about my results and their reaction was like,

"har....... really ar? Only 7 A's??"

"WAHHHH!!!!! SO GOODD!!! CONGRATS"

"Okay lah.... Not bad Not bad...hehe"

'That's good"

"ohhhhh"

hehehe.. so many reactions. Honestly, I expected more. Expectation leads to disappointments. Well, this statement only applies to certain circumstances. Am I not right? My mum and sis expected more from me. I do feel a little sad but Don't worry.. I guess I'll get over it. hehehe. That's my summary on my SPM results.

I got lotsa pictures and stuffs to blog about. I'll post it up later. I love the pictures... hehehe. I had one crazy holiday.

Good Night!

Saturday, 7 March 2009

Fat? Yes? No?

Today was my last day of work at Nando's Call Centre. I am really gonna miss working there. I'm not gonna miss my staff meals though coz I am terrified with chicken now.

I am feeling messed up right now. Sometimes sad and sometimes happy.

I'll be off shopping later. =D I need a few more things. I used to be a size 2 and now I'm a size 6. Well, ok lahh....

I realised I did not post any picture of myself for a reaaaaally long time. So, here is the 51kg Denise. I gained another 1 kg since I start working at Nando's. Holy Cow... Fat?



no?

PS : I don't think I'm fat.... =.='

Randomness III

I've been so caught up with things lately. =D

Working at Nando's. Eating Nando's. Talk Nando's. Wearing Nando's.
Today will be my last day working at Nando's Call Centre. Damn, it feels like I just started last week. I am really gonna miss working there. But, I'm not gonna' miss all the customers screaming on the phone, "WHERE"S MY FOOD!!!!!?!?!?!" and... "I DON"T KNOW MY ADDRESS!!! WHY DO YOU NEED MY ADDRESS!!!!" More on that later..

Besides working, I've been going out quite frequently. Late night supper and sometimes movies. Almost the whole call centre went for movie and then Bukit Indah Mamak. I like their maggi goreng mamak. =D It has been 2 months since that terrifying incident. Going back to Bkt Indah mamak was like Déjà vu. Shit.

Today, I went shopping with my girlfriend, Weng Li. =D I really enjoyed shopping with her. We have a lot in common. Honestly, I really love her company although she can be REALLY LOUD. haha. Even Brandon, my Team Leader said that we're Lesbians. XD More on that later..

Then, we went to Mehraj Mamak to yam-cha~! now, I'm so tired because I only had 4 hours of sleep yesterday night.

That's all for now.
I can't wait for Sunday!

Penang Trip (last entry)

Day 3

After Butterfly Farm, we went to The Botanic Garden.It was a nice place to have a picnics and jogging. It was hot sunny day. Too hot that I was so lazy to walk. It tires me. But, I forced myself to keep walking.

Vi, Khai Wen and Shaz were so eager to find the waterfall. I was so eager to stay under a shade. haha. After walking for so long(it feels like it) we found a tiny waterfall. Ugh.

It was kinda boring for me as my feet hurts from the hiking. I couldn't wear slippers because it hurts even more. (thank god i brought 2 pairs of slippers) I was thinking about the broken slipper. I could imagine Ellise being mad at me. So, I decided to not say a word when I get home until the time is right. Or should I just buy a new pair of Roxy slippers? Well, she has 5 pairs. some imitation and some original. Unlike me, I don't have slippers.

Anywayy.....

lets fast forward to the part where we went to the beach again. This time we went to the gigantic rocks. We wanted to see the sunset.

One missing. Thanks to Shaz.


Picture taken by Kok Siang.
Don't be deceived by the colour os the water. Its very dirty.
I was so disappointed when I saw it.

Vi was talking about how beautiful the scenery was at the rocks coz there was a orange tree. I was the only girl there, AGAIN.

The rocks were covered with barnacles. Some of them are still alive and were stepping on it!!! The guys were ahead of me coz I was a little afraid of jumping from one rock to another barefoot.

You see... they left me behind. =(((((

Okay. No, they will never leave me behind. They guys were helping me jumping from one rock to another. They made like a "bridge" and their hands to that I could catch them and not fall. It was quite tough coz I am not so good with my balance.

Well, we made it!
Of all the pictures, I love this picture the most.
(click the picture to enlarge)






Poser.

okay.. I can't help it. Im also a poser.
*giggles*

Khai Wen.


and Kah Fai.


We were trying to take a picture with the sunset but the lighting is just not on our side?

2 people is missing from this picture.
It sad that neither of us (Kok Siang and I) have a picture that has all of us in it.

Look at the sun!








Beautiful isn't it??

As the sun sets, we tried to take more pictures of us. I suggested the we put my camera on a rock and set it on self timer.


1st attempt. Jhun Ren missing.


Still missing. 2 person actually.

Final attempt.
haha. Then, my battery was dead.
I got bitten by so many mosquitoes.

ugh. I hate my camera battery.

At night, we went to a bazaar or night market to grab a bite to eat. I ordered char kuay teow again coz I don't know what else to eat. I forgot to tell the man not to add prawns in it. ugh. So, I had to order another plate.

That night, all of us planned to watch the sun rise. I was so eager to watch it but I overslept. I was too tired to wake up.

On the 4th day, I was out of money. Seriously out of money. But, thank god I got a cousin living in Penang.He lend me some money so that I could go home and spare some extra money to fill my tummy.

Throughout the trip, I was really enjoying myself. I'm sure the other feel the same. Although at the beginning of the trip I was so angry that 4 of us missed the flight. I did not sleep for 48 hours. I cried on the 3rd day coz of something. Charmaine and a few other guys cheered me up. One promised me a cendol and the other promised me an ice cream. haha!

I don't really feel like blogging about Penang Trip anymore. Enough said. We all had fun. I can't wait for next year's trip. Bali? or Phuket? haha.. I just hope we have enough money to go there.

Love you guys and girls so much!!!



Penang Trip Day 3 (Part 1)

Day 3 (Part 1)

I woke up having a few red patches on my skin. I knew that this was coming and I swallowed a tablet of Loratidine (Clarytine). We had breakfast and hop onto our van. Our first plan for the day is to the Butterfly Farm. As some of you know, one of us is very afraid of butterflies and this was the time for him to get over it (hopefully).

Before that, Mr Yap brought us to a jetty. I don't really know why we were there but it was a beautiful sight of the horizon. Perfect to watch the sunset or sunrise. At 12 p.m, it was neither. We were under the blazing hot sun.

He made us walk on wooden planks that looked like its gonna crash and yet its standing so strong.


I have a slight phobia of heights as some of you may know. Just a little. Even hiking up Penang Hill and looking down I'm A fat pig n creeps me out. At least I am able to control by not looking down. But, I can't get my eyes off the wooden planks. I just walked too see whats install for me at the end of it. The scenery was spectacular.

I really like it despite the glaring sun and the heat.


The water was greenish blue. I've seen better water colours in Langkawi . I really like it despite the glaring sun and the heat. You might just spot some fishes or jellyfish(pic) while walking along the planks.


Not all of us are in this picture. Kah Fai is missing in this pic. I guess it was too hot that he don't even feel like walking. I was also quite afraid that I'll be more tanned. My skin has 2 shades of colour and I don't really like it. Thanks to all the activities under the sun in Langkawi 3 months ago.


The first time I saw this picture, I felt moved. I know that this trip will most probably be our last time we have the chance to spend our time with each others as classmates and friends. Credits to Charmaine for this picture. Its better than my picture above.



Anyway....


Welcome to Penang Butterfly Farm!

Shaz was already sweating like crazy. We entered The farm and

SURPRISE!!!!!


Butterflies were everywhere!













Butterfly pupa. They are real.

I have the tendency to do this. Seriously.
I didn't know until I saw this sign. Poor butterfly.



As I was walking, I came across this little butterfly.
It was surrounded by ants and the ants were carrying it to store as food? maybe?

Shaz was terrified with all the butterflies flying everywhere. Poor guy.

I took some random pictures.

omg. kinda disgusting and yet so fascinating.


This reminds me of some bugs I ate in Bangkok. So similar.
Its the process of becoming a butterfly.


It start out looking so dusgusting that you despise it.
Af all the process, it blossomed into a beautiful butterfly with colourful exoskeleton and some of are "mumified" for personal collecrtion/decoration.



Ewww...

After butterfly Farm, we went to Botanic Garden. It was kinda boring there since it was so hot and most of us are so lazy to walk. We went to a small waterfall and played with sand. haha.

You know, throughout the trip I felt like there was some sort of tension in the air. There was a slight conflict going on here and there. Hmm... I'm not sure how to describe it but it was not a pleasant feeling at all. It tires me. I guess we can't escape from it. It is bound to happen one way or another. We talked about things. Some of it made me laugh and some of it makes me sad. The hardest part will be saying goodbye? Lets see about that.

Till this day, I still can't believe I broke my slippers again!! Sheeshhhh.... I am so afraid of wearing slippers/flip flop nowadays. =.=

To be continued..... This post is quite long since I took more pictures. haha.

Penang Trip Day 2

Day 2, 9th march 2009

Sometimes, I don't know why the hell do I even bother to write such a long post. haha. Maybe I just have the urge to do so. I can't really remember what we did on the 2nd and 3rd day because its all mixed up in my mind now.

We took more pictures on the 2nd day. All of us woke up quite early for breakfast. We get to see each other sleepy and blur faces. I was still tired from yesterday but eventually got over it a few minutes later. Charmaine and I were cracking our head on what to wear and what to bring.

Our plans for the day was Penang Hill and Butterfly Farm. Later at night, we'll be watching Watchmen.

We had breakfast somewhere... I can't recall where. I had Lor Mee and Milo Ice for breakfast. The mee was quite good. The others had a combinations of Prawn Mee, Curry Mee and Porridge.

After our satisfying breakfast, all of us started sweating already. I don't know if it is just me or any of us, but the weather is blazing hot. I forgot to bring extra packets of tissues. So, I told one of the guys to stop at the Petrol Station to but one big packet of tissues. One of them ended up buying a box of tissues instead of the packet ones.. o.O?

We reached Penang Hill about 11.30 a.m I think. The ride up to Penang Hill is so boring. I've been there before and why would I wanna take a ride up there again right? I guess all of us thought about the same thing. So, this time we took a detour. We did not take the tortoise train up the hill.

We hiked up the hill instead. That is why Charmaine and I were fussing about what to wear. haha! None of us went hiking up a hill before and its our first time. I brought the wrong shoes with me. I did not know that we're going hiking. I wore my Converse shoes, since its the only shoes I brought. At least I am wearing shoes. Our dear friend Khai Wen and Kah Fai wore slippers.

At first I thought it will all be easy and boring since we're just gonna walk on some pavements up the hill. Even though, there are people who already hiked this hill before by their visible trails on the soil and markings on every tree it was a challenge for all of us. According to our tour guide, My Yap, The height of Penang Hill is 5 km. He said the we would last 5 km at all. The most will be 2.5 km. Ah well..

We took the jungle trail instead of the ones with pavement. All of us were so energetic. I was so excited to be in the forest, again. It has been almost 6 years since the last time I went into the forest. It felt so good to be close to nature again. For the first hour, our climb up was great! At least, to me. Kah Fai was already asking, "Are we reaching 2.5????"

I don't have the chance to take any pictures. I don't wanna miss out all the adventurous climbing. I felt afraid a little because I was slightly afraid of heights and my body balance wasn't as good as the others. Throughout the journey, some of us were singing out loud. I tried to sing along but I was out of breath. All of us were also laughing about the fact that KW and KF are hiking up with slippers. We reached the first checkpoint.

I never knew that there was a checkpoint. We had free drink. They served us black coffee and water. Water is be the best option. I don't really drink coffee. We need tissues!!!!!! haha. This is where one box of tissues is put into use. XD. Khai wen was our tissue supporter! We took some pictures and also took a short break.

Kok Siang, one of the photographers. He's taking a picture of me.

and I'm the other photographer, I'm taking a picture of Kok Siang. XD



Kacau la you, Shaz.. Ish....


So, I decided to crop out his face. but then, the first one still look better.
Maybe because I camwhored too much. No wonder he make that expression.


Us.


and us again. =)

So, after all that we continue our hiking again. Some of the boys are staring to fart all the way. Its just disgusting. ugh! How can you people fart so much!!!?!We all eat the same food most of the time but ughh....Then they will just start laughing at each others fart. OMG.... Then they just start talking about shit which I do not want to elaborate. Eeek!

We took more frequent breaks as we go on further. All of us were bathing in sweat. But, no one cares. I was really enjoying myself. I am not really an outdoor person for the past 6 years. I miss being an outdoor person. I used to go swimming, jungle tracking and stuffs like that. Hiking/ Climbing up Penang Hill was so refreshing. The air was so cooling and breezy. I love it. I stopped swaeting.

After walking on muddy and slippery trails, we've reached 2.5. All of us were quite tired from all the climbing, walking and jumping. My feet was hurting. Maybe because of the flat sole. Not suitable for hiking. haha. KF and KW were so proud of hiking up with slippers as their slippers were almost flattened.

As we hiked up further, mist are starting to appear from nowhere.



Credits to KS, for all of the pictures below.




As we go up higher, the could turned from sky blue to grey. I was worried.
About 7 years ago, I went jungle tracking when it was raining cats and dogs. Its not a pleasant sight for those who are wearing glasses. I was also afraid of the slippery soil because there was one I slided down the hill because I lost my grip. I scratched my palms and elbows. haha. Good times.

Thank god it never rain. I have shortness of breath more frequently. After every short break, I rose up feeling energised again. The cycle goes on. We reached to a point where we have to walk on tarred roads. It wasn't a relief.

The road was amazingly steep. I think its like 70 degrees. For the first half an hour, I was okay and after that, my whole leg hurts. I do walk a lot on a regular basis. The pain was there at the beginning but it went away after a while. However, this time was different. My leg muscles were stretched to the limit. It ached. ugh!

The road was so steep all the way up. Every corner we took, we were happy that it was all done. Just when I thought we are almost reaching the top, the next turn bring us an even steeper climb . Ahhhhh!!!!! Help me....
The higher we go, the steeper the road, that's my hypothesis.


My conclusion : the hypothesis is accepted. My Yap who was guiding us all the way was ahead of us. All of us saluted him for having such high stamina to climb up Penang Hill. He is already 60 years old and he was ahead of us all through. He had to wait for us and helped us all the way up. He said, he does this 2 times every week. Wow. and..... People actually live up there. I see houses, motorbikes and vehicles going up and down.

5 km. When we reached Penang Hill, all I want was a big bottle of cold water. But, I had chocolate ice cream. We took some pictures and damn, I felt so good. I felt that I've accomplished something - losing weight.


All of us were already thinking about having a massive lunch or dinner. It was already 3.3o p.m. We took the train down Penang Hill. No way we're gonna hike down. haha!

This activity is not for people who has breathing problems. Seriously. I might wanna go hiking again someday. All of us do, I think. This time, none of us were prepared for what is coming ahead. Climbing up Bukit Bendera/Penang Hill is such a great way to escape the monotony and predictability of life. All of us are so random. And wonderful things happens out of randomness. I don't know if I can find anyone else besides my friends who are willing to do these things.

After that, we went to a Asam Laksa Hawker stall nearby a market not far away from Penang Hill. Jun was talking about this stall almost everyday and how eager he wanted to eat it again. We manage to find 2 tables for the eight of us. We had Sugar Cane juice/ Air Tebu. Asam Laksa was super deeeeelicious! There are traces of prawns in the soup that I was worrying so much but I was too hungry to think about it. It was the best food I've ever tasted in Penang. hahaha! Shaz and Jhun ordered another bowl each.

Butterfly Farm was postponed for the 3rd day. We head back to our hotel, bathed and rest.

Later that night around 7.30 p.m, we waited for Mr. Yap at the lobby for our movie at Gurney Plaza. We waited quite long outside the hotel. There was a traffic jam in front our hotels. At the same time, I suspected some tension in the air. Maybe its just me. There was an accident along the road. ugh. How convenient. All of us were starving to death already.

our movie was at 9.25p.m. Thank god we made it for the movie but not dinner at Gurney Drive. =(




The movie was alright. I love Rorschach. The movie was funny and sarcastic.
I was trying so hard to understand the show. haha.

After the movie, we walked to the food place next to Gurney Plaza. While walking, something happened again. I broke my slippers, AGAIN! All my friends burst into laugther. Shit la. Why is this happening to me. First time it happened, one of the guys piggy-backed me. Now, its happening all over again. I had another piggy-back ride. But then, I don't want to be piggy-backed as so many people were staring.

So, Kok Siang came up with a brilliant and yet genius idea! Rubber bands!!!! He told me to tie the rubber bands on my feet and slippers and guess what????

IT WORKED!!! OMg, I was ecstatic!!! That night, I ate 2 plates of Char-Koay Teow. It wasn't as nice as the first night I tried it but edible. Maybe its because it was from a different stall. They weren't many shops after midnight. I was a little surprised. We finished at 1 a.m and we head back to our hotel to have a good night sleep.

Time now : 6.16 p.m

Wow.. it took me 3 hours to blog this post. haha!


Penang Trip Day 1

Day 1, 8th March 2009


We rushed to KL
Sentral in 10 minutes. It was such a relief as we thought we were late. We got onto the bus and waited down there for 45 minutes. It is already 5.15 a.m.

I was already feeling uneasy. Finally, after the bus was filled up, the bud finally made its move. I slept halfway in the bus. I was awaken by the sudden brake. I hate it when buses or any vehicle does this.It always throws me forwards. Thank you Newton. Law of Inertia.

In my head, all I could think of is "shit. crap. yer.... when are we reaching!!!!!??" About 45 minutes later, we got down the bus and started running, running and running. You know, like in those shows. We were already late. As we were running, we were trying to find the booth for us to check in.

Running, looking, running and looking..... We can't find anything. It was already 20 minutes before our 6.55a.m flight. We asked around about how to check in and all of them told us,

"I'm sorry, the check-in booth to Penang has already closed"

15 minutes before 6.55 a.m.

Kok Siang, Vinaya, kah Fai and Khai Wen already check-in and they are still stuck with us. The 4 of us, Jhun, Shaz, Charmaine and I panicked. We we not prepared for this at all. I never thought this is actually happening.

Anyway, we asked around again on how to solve this.

"I'm afraid you have to purchase a new flight ticket because the gate has already closed"

10 minutes before 6.55 a.m.

"Kok Siang, I think you guys should go first without us or else you'll miss your flight and the ticket would be a waste!! Don't worry about us, we'll find a way to get there."

Kok Siang and the others was kinda angry. Suddenly, there was an announcement calling for Kok Siang, Vinaya, Khai Wen and Kah Fai to board the plane.

So, we tried begging them to let us in but they just won't allow it. At that moment, I was hoping that those dramas I've watched will come true. Us, checking in late and the air-steward(ess) will let us in and everything was fine and dandy.

Too bad. We were stuck down there. The 4 of us were angry, disappointed and frustrated. We only had 1 hour of sleep. The night before, I only had 4 hours of sleep. Ugh. *inserts profanities!!!!!!!!*

We bought new tickets. A one way ticket to Penang that cost RM 150 each. Coming back from Penang to KL will not be a problem as we can still use the tickets we purchased earlier. *inserts profanities!!!!* Now, I am short on RM 150. Now, I have enough money to spend in Penang.

6.55 a.m

The earliest flight to Penang is at 11.10 a.m. We had 4 hours to spend. We went to McDonalds. We played cards, ate mcd breakfast and tried to get some sleep. You know, now I hate McDonalds. Almost everything from the menu shrunk and the price is just so freaking expensive. I hate their breakfast menu. Big breakfast taste like crap, I quote by friends. Its too small. I find is quite small for myself too. =.=" I bought a McFlurry about 1 week earlier and I was so shocked to see how tiny the McFlurry was.

The cup shrunk to half of its original size and yet the price is more expensive!!! WTH!!! I questioned the mcd guy, "Eh, Why mcflurry became so small????" He told me its still the same amount (as in the content). grrrrr.... Thinking about it cheesed me off.


A sundae cone (vanilla) - Before ( RM 1.05) / After (RM 1.50)
McChicken meal set - The price increased from RM 6.80 to RM 10 something.
same goes to the rest.

Anyway, the four of us were stuck at LCCT for 4 hours. I was so hungry that I gave in to mcd. Shaz and Charmaine finished theirs already. Jhun said. "I die also wont order mcd" LOL. Ah well, The only think I love about mcd is their fatty french fries and thememories I had when I was there.



We boarded our flight at 11.00 a.m. We missed watching the sun rise. It was Shaz and Jhun's first flight. Its my third time flying and I was so worried about the pain in my ears that happened to me in the first 2 flights. Really, it hurts and I was so paranoid.


Well, we reached Penang at last. We met up with the other 4 and checked in to our room. We went for lunch at some stall. I was so hungry and ordered something. My Iced Milo was tasteless. 45 minutes later, my food did not arrive. I asked them where is it and they said they ran out of it. *Insert profanities!!!!!* I did not eat anything for lunch. We went back to our hotel and slept.

We went to Gurney Plaza that night, bought tickets to watch Marley and Me & Watchmen for the following night. We went to Gurney Drive to eat. I was starving that I ate 2 plates of Char Kuay Teow. Nothing much on Day 1.



Marley & Me was a touching show. I cried watching that show.


I've seen so many rainbows but this is the biggest rainbow I've ever seen.

That's all we did for Day 1.

Penang Trip Part I

About 2 months ago, Jhun, Shaz, Kok Siang and I planned to have a trip to some place before we go our own separate ways. It was 10.30p.m and i think I already started working, I'm not so sure. We crashed at Jhun's place to plan out everything. We googled where are we going. Most of us wanted Pulau Perhentian.

Pulau Perhentian it is.

But then,one thing strike our mind, is it monsoon season??? There goes our geography. None of us remembered. I got an A for my geography for PMR and yet I can't remember. XD Tru enough, it was monsoon season and an air tickets there is way over our budget. About RM 600 or so.

So, we had to find another island. On our list, we had Langkawi and Pangkor. We just got back from Langkawi in December and I've been to Pangkor at least once a year. So, the only Island left was Penang. =)

We googled our hotels and air tickets. Jhun booked everything for the 8 of us. From the air tickets, bus tickets and accommodation. Thank you very much!!
Our plane ticket is RM 80 (return flight),
bus ticket from KL Sentral To LCCT Terminal (vice versa) is RM 18,
Hotel accommodation is about. RM 100 per person for 4 days and 3 nights.

We all love cheap prices. Don't we? We're not rich kids. We booked the cheapest flight available. We stayed at the cheapest hotel we could ever find, Sri Sayang Hotel. I had almost everything we need. Its a 3 room apartment with 2 toilets, 2 balconies, a living room and a kitchen.

Our holiday is from 8th March to 11 March 2009. We assumed that our SPM results will be out on the 12th. haha. Well, our assumption was right.

So, here is what we did on the 7th and 8th (Day 1).

On the 7th, Shaz, Jhun and I went out shopping for our stuffs. Shaz wanted to buy a pair of jeans and shirt. too bad none of them fit him. Not even the largest size fits him nowadays. Eat la some more and no exercise. XD
Jhun was looking for a shirt and jacket. He only bought a shirt from Body Glove.
As for me, I wanted to buy a jackets and a pair of sandals. Sadly, I did not buy anything because I can't find anything nice. The guys said I am picky. SWT.

We walked from KLCC to Pavilion to Sg. Wang and to Times Square. My feet hurts from all the walking. As we were walking at these places, I noticed that there's like a sudden overpopulation of people in groups with colourful attire. You know what I mean if you actually walk along Pavilion to SG. Wang and to Times Square. Shaz and Jhun said I'm allergic to these kind of people. Yes, I am.

Here is what I think of them,
Most of them have no sense of style. Some of them looked okay but the others are just too painful to look at. They are like everywhere that area!! Maybe its their so called territory, I don't know. They are loud and loves to shuffle. ugh.I feel terrified around them.

We were out for the whole day. We ate sushi for dinner. We ate at Ichiban Boshi at Pavilion. It was our first time and we gave it a try. It tuned out to be really good. Better than Sushi King (obviously) and Sakae Sushi. I want to try Nippon Tei and Saisaki next time.

He love tuna so much.lol


I love to eat and take pictures so much!

Shaz loves green tea so much!
We keep calling the waiter/waitress but none of them saw us. So, he had to put up his oh-so-cute-begging face for some refills!


I had this!


and this!!!
Salmon Sashimi with Cheese and Spring Onions!

One thing that all of us can't stand about eating in a Japanese Restaurant is the Sushi Counter.


The food constantly pass by our very own eyes. Every plate that passed by, the temptation of taking a plate of it is just almost unbearable. I hate rotating sushi counters. grrr...

Later that night, Shaz, Charmaine and I crashed at Jhun's place for a movie, Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging. Its a British movie. It was a good movie.It will definitely make you laugh. We crashed at his place because out flight is at 6.55 a.m and we have to leave by 4am. We watched the movie until 2.30a.m. I was so so sleepy that I went home to sleep for 1 hour? Charmaine tagged along. Usually, we'll just stay there for the night but I wanted to go home.

I set my alarm at 3.30 a.m but I overslept until 4 a.m. That is where Kok Siang called and woke me up. He told me that Shaz and Jhun are not picking up the phone. So, I called them hoping that they are already awake but they are not. omg...

We rushed to KL Sentral in 10 minutes. It was such a relief as we thought we were late. We got onto the bus and waited down there for 45 minutes. It is already 5 a.m.

The worst has yet to come...

To be continued... Stay tuned for more..

SPM Results!

He llooooooooo everyoneeeeeeeeeee!!! I'm back!!

For the past 1 weeks, I've been busy with outings after outings. It was bittersweet for me. nothing lasts forever and life goes on. I resigned about a week ago as Nando's Call Centre Agent. It was fun, stressful and i learned that the "Customer is Always Right" policy is so overrated. People misuse it. ugh. Normand.

Ok la, I'm sure you people wanna know how was my SPM results right???
Well, it was alright la. For me at least. I am a little disappointed with what I got. Oh well, its all said and done. I got,

7 A1's and 3 B3's.

I was hoping for straight A's or at least 9 A's. ....
I got B3 for Add Maths, Physics and sadly, Biology. I don't know what went wrong as i know how to answer all the questions and understand it perfectly. ugh. Its so frustrating. I am not really that good at Physics all along, just average. I wasn't sure what to expect for add maths but oh well. I'm not a smart-ass when it comes to studying. hehe.

People asked me about my results and their reaction was like,

"har....... really ar? Only 7 A's??"

"WAHHHH!!!!! SO GOODD!!! CONGRATS"

"Okay lah.... Not bad Not bad...hehe"

'That's good"

"ohhhhh"

hehehe.. so many reactions. Honestly, I expected more. Expectation leads to disappointments. Well, this statement only applies to certain circumstances. Am I not right? My mum and sis expected more from me. I do feel a little sad but Don't worry.. I guess I'll get over it. hehehe. That's my summary on my SPM results.

I got lotsa pictures and stuffs to blog about. I'll post it up later. I love the pictures... hehehe. I had one crazy holiday.

Good Night!

Fat? Yes? No?

Today was my last day of work at Nando's Call Centre. I am really gonna miss working there. I'm not gonna miss my staff meals though coz I am terrified with chicken now.

I am feeling messed up right now. Sometimes sad and sometimes happy.

I'll be off shopping later. =D I need a few more things. I used to be a size 2 and now I'm a size 6. Well, ok lahh....

I realised I did not post any picture of myself for a reaaaaally long time. So, here is the 51kg Denise. I gained another 1 kg since I start working at Nando's. Holy Cow... Fat?



no?

PS : I don't think I'm fat.... =.='

Randomness III

I've been so caught up with things lately. =D

Working at Nando's. Eating Nando's. Talk Nando's. Wearing Nando's.
Today will be my last day working at Nando's Call Centre. Damn, it feels like I just started last week. I am really gonna miss working there. But, I'm not gonna' miss all the customers screaming on the phone, "WHERE"S MY FOOD!!!!!?!?!?!" and... "I DON"T KNOW MY ADDRESS!!! WHY DO YOU NEED MY ADDRESS!!!!" More on that later..

Besides working, I've been going out quite frequently. Late night supper and sometimes movies. Almost the whole call centre went for movie and then Bukit Indah Mamak. I like their maggi goreng mamak. =D It has been 2 months since that terrifying incident. Going back to Bkt Indah mamak was like Déjà vu. Shit.

Today, I went shopping with my girlfriend, Weng Li. =D I really enjoyed shopping with her. We have a lot in common. Honestly, I really love her company although she can be REALLY LOUD. haha. Even Brandon, my Team Leader said that we're Lesbians. XD More on that later..

Then, we went to Mehraj Mamak to yam-cha~! now, I'm so tired because I only had 4 hours of sleep yesterday night.

That's all for now.
I can't wait for Sunday!
