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!

Late night drink.

Nowadays, I can't help but to sleep late. I've already set my sleeping hours around 3 am to 9am. Because of this, I always have to rush to work (if I have morning shift) because I can't wake up earlier.

All night, I would either watch tv or online or maybe read my novels. One thing is for sure, I'll make a cup of hot drink.

Hot Milo. Hot Chocolate. Hot green tea. That's for the cold nights especially when it is raining/ when it rains.

It so comfortable to cuddle yourself in a warm blanket while watching television. The warm sensation in your mouth as the warm drink passes down your throat and into your tummy. It feels so... ahhhh.... warm. =)

Iced chocolate (full cream milk with melted chocolate), cold water or maybe cold tea for warmer days.


Well...... abt an hour ago, I opened my kitchen cupboard to find something to eat.


This is what I have. Well, a part of it..

What to eat???
Nutella??
Vico??
Peanut butter??
Bird's Nest (next to the peanut butter)
Milo (the smiley jar)
Nescafe??



I chose Vico. =D


I can't live a day without drinking this. Be it in the morning or at night. It doesn't taste that good at the beginning but I like it because it fills my tummy. Well, a little.
After awhile, I got used to it.
Milo has the same thing too.

I regretted buying Milo with cereal as I thought it would taste nice but it taste horrible. I was so convinced that it would be better but ewww. They probably added some cheap oats inside.

Anyway......

So, I boiled water.



While waiting,


Pour the vico+cereal into a cup.


When the water is boiled, pour the water into the cup and stir it.

Put more cereal if its not enough.


I usually add more oats.
Bought this separately. Quaker Oats. =D



TADA!!!!!


Leave it for awhile.
You don't wanna burn your lips or tongue.
You don't wanna eat hard oats too right??
hehe.

After about 2 minutes, you can enjoy your warm cup of chocolate drink while surfing the net.


=DDDD

I'm going to sleep soon.
I'll be working for another 3 more days.

What I did Today?

Today, I spent my time with my Daddy at Delifrance for breakfast. Just the two of us. We talked and talked. =D I really love it. We had scrabled eggs, croissant and tea at Great Eastern Mall.Then, he dropped me at KLCC after that because I wanted to buy some books to read.

After about 1 hour browsing through the book, I bought 3 novels. I couldn't wait to get home to read it. =D Now, I have the enthusiasm to gather all my book from every corner of my room and arrange it nicely.

New Moon is missing. I wonder where it go?




Abducted and Wanted!! :
1. Kite runner by Khaled Hosseini
2. For One More Day by Mitch Albom
3. The Gift by Cecelia Ahern.

I was about to buy 4 books but I don't want to be too greedy.
One at a time, Denise....

*****


Today, My alarm clock died on me. That god I woke up at the right time ie. 8.30 a.m. I had only 4 hours of sleep. I was up all night chatting again. XD I was a little emotional. I don't know why. Nothing big, really. A godmother? Whoa...

Anyway, my alarm clock died on me and my phone also died on me.

My phone went all bank this morning and I panicked.

omg omg omg omg, what to do.....????
Crap....

My daddy told me that my phone is freezing cold because it is the air-cond room and can't stand the low temperature.

I was like.. "Whaaatt??? You must be joking.... It has been in an air cond room for as long as I can remember.."

Then, my dad asked me to use the hair dryer to warm up my phone and that I thought was quite ridiculous. I was kinda upset because I thought my phone is dead for good. So, I gave it a try.

It worked. LOL. A part of my was happy that I still can use it but another part of me felt a little disappointed because I thought I could get a brand new phone. HAHA.

I had my first phone when I was Thirteen. I bet most of you have it way younger than 13. Like my sister who got her first phone when she was 11? My first phone was a Nokia 3310. Damn classic, I know. UP till today, I still have it. Somewhere.....

When I was in Form 2, I bought a brand new phone. Nokia 6610i. I gave my 3310 that was passed down by my dad to me and it was my turn to pass it down to Ellise. Back then, my phone was consider the "latest phone". Cheh..

I was so overwhelmed by the functions. I can take pictures, MMS, keep more smgs and all of it are in colour! I still have so many picture that I've taken like 3 years ago. Tak sampai hati to delete it lar..

After all these years using my 6610, never once it failed me.

Sometimes, I wake up late because I turn you off.
Sometimes, I am so careless that I slipped you through my hands that you fell and broke.
Once, I accidentally dropped you in a pail of detergent water and I thought I was gonna lose you. You revived and damn, I was so relieved.
Once, I was so lazy to put my phone on my bed that I threw you and "BANG!!!". Instead of landing on my bouncy mattress, you hit the wall hard and landed on my paraquat floor.
A few times, I think abt almost 2 years ago I threw you away because I was angry and sad. Sorry for that.
Sometimes, I wonder how my life would be without you?
You keep all my messages, my call logs and pictures.
Sometimes, I think you're so lucky to have such a nice owner like me. =D

Coz, if you were in the hands of others, You'll be gone long ago. hahaha. OMG. I'm talking like a mad woman.

I truly madly deeply love my phone. Although you're now 4 years old, you still look the same the moment I laid my eyes on you.


Same as Always. =)
Despite the scars all over, both of us gone through our ups and downs.



*Lights on*
*Reading....*

Movie?

I just watched Slumdog Millionaire.


....

My heart ached while watching it.

My throat felt so heavy and I was gonna walk out of the cinema right at that moment.

I could not bear watching it yet at the same time, I want to know how it ends.

This movie is the best movie I've ever watched so far in my 17 years.

I don't know which word to pick from to describe this movie until you watch it yourself. Touching. Bitter. Torture. Heaven. Gratitude. Brilliant. Genius. Brutal. Heartbreaking. Love. Sacrifice. gosh...

This movie is a million times better than the Benjamin Button movie.

oh dear... Now, I am asking myself, WHY THE HELL DIDN'T I GET THAT BOOK MONTHS EARLIER?!?!?!?!!! Slumpdog Millionaire is from the novel "Q & A" by Vikas Swarup. Arrrrghhh!!!!! I should've bought that book last year!!!!!! I knew it was a good book but... Never mind... I'm gonna get it anyway one way or another.

I like the main character in that movie. He obviously can dance ballroom. XD!!

So, go watch it. =)

This movie was nominated and won 3 awards for Best Films such as The Academy Awards, Golden Globe Awards and BAFTA Awards. Well, this movie won a lot of awards. Check this out.

anyway, push that aside... I'm starting to taste a sip what its like in the REAL world.. Its so complex and... ugh.. I need to sleep.

I can't seem to understand myself lately.... *sighs*

*lights out*

Unexplained fever?

About 23 hours ago, I was having high fever. My forehead and neck was as warm as boiling water. It was so warm that I shivered for like half an hour. I felt so cold like I was about to die of frostbite. But then again, its all about Homeostasis (To maintain a stable internal environment of the body) or otherwise knows as Negative Feedback. I force and dragged myself out of bed to take a dose of panadol. I slept in the living room for an hour and when I felt a little better, I went back to my room to sleep.

I was wondering what in the world is wrong with me? So many things were running through my mind. I dreamt about something. I forgot what was it about but if definitely made me feel so much better. Whatever the dream was, I stopped shivering. Thank you for being there when I needed the most. I never thought that you'd still be there. Oh dear.... *frowns*

In the morning, I woke up as usual for work. I thought I couldn't make it to work. I touched my forehead.

Why is it not warm? Am I okay? Wait, I thought I was having high fever? What the..... *touches my forehead again* Holy crap. How did I recover so fast??
Okay..... What on earth is wrong with me??

My mum was so surprised that I was alright. I don't know what happened and what is it supposed to mean but I am a 100% sure that this is real.

Ugh. I can't seem to express how I truly feel. I can't seem to find the right word for it. Maybe there's one word to describe it for now. Confused. I think I am confused with myself. How odd is that? I don't know why am I blogging everyday? Nothing better to do? Yeah... Probably not.

Ah well. Here's a song to end my post for today. I might not be updating for the next few days.




Thank you for this moment
I've gotta say how beautiful you are
Of all the hopes and dreams I could have prayed for
Here you are
If I could have one dance forever
I would take you by the hand
Tonight it's you and I together
I'm so glad I'm your man
And if I lived a thousand years
You know I never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you
that day
but if destiny decided I should look the other way
then the world would never know
the greatest story ever told
and did I tell you that I love you
tonight
I don't hear the music
When I'm looking in your eyes
But I feel the rhythm of your body
Close to mine
It's the way we touch, it soothes me
It's the way we'll always be
your kiss your pretty smile
you know I'd die for
oh baby
you're all i need
And if I lived a thousand years
You know I never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you
that day
but if destiny decided I should look the other way
then the world would never know
the greatest story ever told
and did I tell you that I love you
just how much i really need you
did I tell you that I love you
tonight
tonight
And if I lived a thousand years
You know I never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you
that day
but if destiny decided I should look the other way
then the world would never know
the greatest story ever told
and did I tell you that I love you
just how much I really need you
did I tell you that I love you tonight

Randomness II

I finished "A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Klaled Hosseini. He has a natural talent for expressing
every emotions and the minute details of everything. Its almost effortless. I was almost in tears reading both of his books. Every time I was about to shed my tears, something will distract my attention.

The first book I read was Kite Runner and I was reading it in office all through until I finish the last sentence. Every time I was about to cry, I was awakened by the ring tone of my customers calling to place their orders. I had to suck it all up and I can't be crying while talking to the customers right??

Ah well, I hope he is publishing a new novel. Pleaseeee!!

Now, I'm on a hunt again for fresh meat! Muahahaha! However, I'm actually trying to save money. I've tried secondhand bookshops but I can't get what I want. =(

For the past few days, I've been experiencing some headaches and dizziness. Its been a long time since I have headaches. ugh. Maybe I don't have enough sleep. I keep waking up late for work especially in the morning.

My emotions are easily swayed these few days. Thank you, Hormones.

I seriously can't stand the sight of smokers. I detest them right to the core! ugh. Public nuisance. Today, I came home smelling like a burnt chicken. ugh! Who on earth smokes in a car, you tell me??!?!? Your whole car will stink like FOREVER. No wonder I woke up a few hours ago feeling so sick and my body was aching everywhere especially my joints.

If you wanna smoke, smoke far far away and NOT IN A FREAKING CAR!!!! Its like a chamber of death. Mild torture. You wanna die in a car ar??!?! Imagine carbon monoxide filling up your car and you can't escape from your car. It may seem petty but people actually die from suffocation. omg. I really felt like I was gonna pass out in the car.

I need to sleep soon.

zzZZZZZZZZZ.....

I know what to do with my first paycheck. =)



Friday, 20 February 2009

My First Paycheck!

Behold! My first paycheck! =D


i was like... "omg.. for me?" I was over the moon... =D


Apparently, the paycheck I got was wrong. I am supposed to get more than what Im getting. LOL. I guess that is going into my next paycheck. XD

haha. I photoshop-ed this pic! Yeah, I have photoshop on my computer now. =D There are so many buttons to press and I seriously don't know where to start and I don't seem to have the patience to learn it.

Get Your 1901 Today!!!!

Every 19th of the month, 1901 (hot dogs) will be selling hot dogs at a HOT PRICE!!! RM 2 EACH!!

So, go grab one!! Because, I just did. =DDDD

Vi went to Ampang Point to find that the queue was sooo long!! At least 25 people is queuing in front of him. So, everyone in office had one. whee~~!

Yummy......
Blogging from my office now. Which I'm not supposed to do.XD

*edits*

About 2 days ago, I has Sakae Sushi at KLCC. OMG! I love their Salmon Sashimi! I'm not sure whether its the best Salmon I"ve ever tasted but I love it.! =DD I love their tea too! Its green tea brew with brown rice. I'm not sure where can I get it. Maybe Isetan?

Oh oh oh!!! I got a new set of computer! My mummy bought a Desktop Computer. HP Pavilion. It comes together with a mouse and keyboard. how cool is that? My old computer is creating lotsa problems like :

Loose connection
Kinda slow
Its 6 years old!
what else? Blur Screen of Death?

The main problem will be the loose connection that drives all of us nuts. sometimes, we can't even on the computer because the connection was loose. So, my mum made up her mind to buy a new one. So, here I am using my brand new CPU. I like it. Windows Vista. My keyboard is so smooth and soft. Its like using a laptop. I am still trying to familiarise my fingers with this new texture. My fingers tend to slip once in a while. The mouse... well, its just an ordinary mouse. nothing special.

I still don't have any pictures in my computer now. I lost most of my pictures from my ex-CPU. My mum re-formatted me ex-CPU and use it as a backup in case she neeeds it.

to be continued...

I need to bathe~~!!!!!!! Theres no water and its almost 1 am now!!!!!! T.T

I hate it

When people can't take care of their pets.

I'm not an animal lover but I love their company from time to time. Maybe it's because my mum hates pets and I'm not allowed to keep any pets with fur. Another thing is that I am also allergic to animal fur. Anyway..... Every morning on my way to work, I realise that there will be 2 small cups with food and water. Well, I was quite bothered by the fact that cats will be wandering all over my place since there's cat food. True enough, there's this cat that keeps on moaning and meowing when I step out of my house for work and when I am back home from work. It keeps on scratching on my door, sneak into my balcony and front door. What's worse is when I found out that that cat belongs to my neighbour upstairs.

They adopted a cat from SPCA recently. I don't really know what happen but it seems that the uncle upstairs hates cats and his wife had to put it outside. So, I was really annoyed and went upstairs with the cat. The cat was unbelievably adorable and attached. I wasn't sure whether the story was true, so I asked her..

"Auntie, is this your cat??"

*cat runs into the house*

"yeah, yeah, yeah! it is... Its not supposed to stay inside because uncle don't want it."

"Ohh.."

she quickly ordered her son to grab the cat. As she was picking up the cat, I told her off.

"Aunty, why adopt a cat if you have to put it outside. Why don't you just return it back?! It has been coming in and out of my house through the front door and balcony. It also makes a lot of noise."

"yeah la, I'm going to return it tmr."

"Yeah. Return it back lah if you can't take care of it."

She quickly took the cat downstairs and put it some where.

I really pity the cat. Idiotic people. Want to put it outside then better don't adopt it lah!! Then why do you think that SPCA Organisation exist?!?! For stray/orphan animals la that have nowhere to go!! Secondly, why even bother adopting a pet if you don't have the approval of every family member???!!!

There are more than enough of stay cats/dog in Kuala Lumpur already. So, don't bother rubbing salt into the wound. Such heartless creatures, human beings can be.

If I ever see that poor little cat wandering around here ever again, I seriously gonna do something about this. Tomorrow is my off day, so I can go make a report for animal abuse and bring that cat along with me. I don't think that cat deserves any of this.

Don't take care of animals if you can't take full responsibility on it.
If you can't shower your pet with love and fulfil their every needs just like your own child, then don't even bother thinking of having any pets.

Sheeesh...

Book Lover.

I am almost done reading "The Kite Runner" by Khaled Hosseini. Spectacular novel! It will be out in theaters soon. So, for those who are so lazy to read I think this movie is gonna be a fatastic movie that you wouldn't regret watching it. Thank You, Ji Mi for the lovely present! I love it.

About 3 nights ago, I went for a movie at Pavilion. It was 1.25am. I was so exhausted that I slept halfway through the movie. Sleeping in the cinema is something I will never ever do. Boring movie maybe?

Anyway..... Talk about novels, I love to read. I love to read but I'm not really good at writing a fiction story as it requires a lot of imagination. Back in school, I always wander off the topic for being too emotional in my essays but somehow I manage to stay within the boundaries of the topic.

I love reading novels with no pictures in it. It gives the chance to create my very own picture of the whole scenario. I don't mind reading in small prints until you need a magnifying glass. (maybe that is why I am wearing glasses?) I don't give a damn how thick the book is as longs as it keeps me wanting for more.

Everywhere I go, I'll definitely bring a novel with me. Whether I read it or not that's another thing. Nowadays, I read while working. Sometimes, I get too carried away that I forgot what to say to my customers.

I'll be reading "A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Klaled Hosseini, Stephanie Mayer's trilogy (I know I'm outdated but who cares) and Inkheart trilogy after the current book I'm reading.

Now that I have so many novels at home, I don't have a place to put them in order. I don't have a special place to keep them. I end up stacking every novel according to sizes then the author's name at every corner of my room.

My mum always nag at me about my books being all over the place. "Wait lah.... I'll clean it later", I said to her. She will be nagging continuously and by that time, I am already on mute as I know what she is gonna say. Wait lah.... Next time if I have my own house, I will have one special room dedicated for all my books. Dark Wooden shelves Like the ones In Inkheart, the movie. A broad glass window allowing the sunlight to brighten up the room and also white with violet curtains. The floor will be made from solid white Oak/Maple instead of Marble. I prefer walking on warm surfaces. A 3 seat sofa with 5 pillows and a blankets near the window. The most important thins will be the lighting's. The ambiance should be warm and peaceful. Then maybe she wouldn't nag at me. =D

I have a habit of keeping my books in excellent condition. I don't know whether am I the only one who feels this way. I hate people folding the whole page as a bookmark. I don't mind having a small fold on the edge but NOT THE WHOLE PAGE! I hate having beverages/ food spilled onto my novels. I really don't like people opening the book so wide that it soften the book. I don't mind if it is hardback cover but not paperback cover. I can't stand the sight of my front page cover being folded/damaged at the edge/sides.

I hate people who borrow my novels and not returning them until I ask for it so many times. Come on lah, have some courtesy to the owner of the book. I don't just read it one time you know. I read all my novels at least 2 times. If you're not reading it then you should just return it back. I don't deserve to beg/keep asking people to return my book. I work hard to buy my own novels using my school pocket money. I starve in school just to save enough cash to buy a novel.

(ok la, I did not actually starve in school but I just don't use my school money to buy food unless I really need it. I usually bring my own food to school)

I am a regular customer at Kinokuniya, KLCC. I can spend 6 hours reading(if I have a place to sit) reading and end up not buying the novel because I already finish reading it. XDXD =D I have 6 discount cards, 3 for 25% and the other 3 for 15% that I totally forgot to use. Now, I am so freaking pissed at myself for not using all of it I magine how much I could save!!!!!!

Maybe it wasn't meant to be. =( Its ok.

Of all the books I've read, I find some books quite irritating. For example, The Secret By Rhonda Byrne. Its a reallt effective book but poisonous at times. I believed it and it actually works! Sometimes, it it benefits me but other times, it is just disappointing and frustrating. I only read like half of the book because I was tired of the repetition.

Anyway, enough of books.

I heard that one of the question in out Paper 2 in Section B/C has a question error and it seems that they are giving a bonus??? I'm not too sure. XD

Almost everyone is coughing at my work place!! I wonder who did I got it from. *Evil stare* grrrrr....

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!

Late night drink.

Nowadays, I can't help but to sleep late. I've already set my sleeping hours around 3 am to 9am. Because of this, I always have to rush to work (if I have morning shift) because I can't wake up earlier.

All night, I would either watch tv or online or maybe read my novels. One thing is for sure, I'll make a cup of hot drink.

Hot Milo. Hot Chocolate. Hot green tea. That's for the cold nights especially when it is raining/ when it rains.

It so comfortable to cuddle yourself in a warm blanket while watching television. The warm sensation in your mouth as the warm drink passes down your throat and into your tummy. It feels so... ahhhh.... warm. =)

Iced chocolate (full cream milk with melted chocolate), cold water or maybe cold tea for warmer days.


Well...... abt an hour ago, I opened my kitchen cupboard to find something to eat.


This is what I have. Well, a part of it..

What to eat???
Nutella??
Vico??
Peanut butter??
Bird's Nest (next to the peanut butter)
Milo (the smiley jar)
Nescafe??



I chose Vico. =D


I can't live a day without drinking this. Be it in the morning or at night. It doesn't taste that good at the beginning but I like it because it fills my tummy. Well, a little.
After awhile, I got used to it.
Milo has the same thing too.

I regretted buying Milo with cereal as I thought it would taste nice but it taste horrible. I was so convinced that it would be better but ewww. They probably added some cheap oats inside.

Anyway......

So, I boiled water.



While waiting,


Pour the vico+cereal into a cup.


When the water is boiled, pour the water into the cup and stir it.

Put more cereal if its not enough.


I usually add more oats.
Bought this separately. Quaker Oats. =D



TADA!!!!!


Leave it for awhile.
You don't wanna burn your lips or tongue.
You don't wanna eat hard oats too right??
hehe.

After about 2 minutes, you can enjoy your warm cup of chocolate drink while surfing the net.


=DDDD

I'm going to sleep soon.
I'll be working for another 3 more days.


What I did Today?

Today, I spent my time with my Daddy at Delifrance for breakfast. Just the two of us. We talked and talked. =D I really love it. We had scrabled eggs, croissant and tea at Great Eastern Mall.Then, he dropped me at KLCC after that because I wanted to buy some books to read.

After about 1 hour browsing through the book, I bought 3 novels. I couldn't wait to get home to read it. =D Now, I have the enthusiasm to gather all my book from every corner of my room and arrange it nicely.

New Moon is missing. I wonder where it go?




Abducted and Wanted!! :
1. Kite runner by Khaled Hosseini
2. For One More Day by Mitch Albom
3. The Gift by Cecelia Ahern.

I was about to buy 4 books but I don't want to be too greedy.
One at a time, Denise....

*****


Today, My alarm clock died on me. That god I woke up at the right time ie. 8.30 a.m. I had only 4 hours of sleep. I was up all night chatting again. XD I was a little emotional. I don't know why. Nothing big, really. A godmother? Whoa...

Anyway, my alarm clock died on me and my phone also died on me.

My phone went all bank this morning and I panicked.

omg omg omg omg, what to do.....????
Crap....

My daddy told me that my phone is freezing cold because it is the air-cond room and can't stand the low temperature.

I was like.. "Whaaatt??? You must be joking.... It has been in an air cond room for as long as I can remember.."

Then, my dad asked me to use the hair dryer to warm up my phone and that I thought was quite ridiculous. I was kinda upset because I thought my phone is dead for good. So, I gave it a try.

It worked. LOL. A part of my was happy that I still can use it but another part of me felt a little disappointed because I thought I could get a brand new phone. HAHA.

I had my first phone when I was Thirteen. I bet most of you have it way younger than 13. Like my sister who got her first phone when she was 11? My first phone was a Nokia 3310. Damn classic, I know. UP till today, I still have it. Somewhere.....

When I was in Form 2, I bought a brand new phone. Nokia 6610i. I gave my 3310 that was passed down by my dad to me and it was my turn to pass it down to Ellise. Back then, my phone was consider the "latest phone". Cheh..

I was so overwhelmed by the functions. I can take pictures, MMS, keep more smgs and all of it are in colour! I still have so many picture that I've taken like 3 years ago. Tak sampai hati to delete it lar..

After all these years using my 6610, never once it failed me.

Sometimes, I wake up late because I turn you off.
Sometimes, I am so careless that I slipped you through my hands that you fell and broke.
Once, I accidentally dropped you in a pail of detergent water and I thought I was gonna lose you. You revived and damn, I was so relieved.
Once, I was so lazy to put my phone on my bed that I threw you and "BANG!!!". Instead of landing on my bouncy mattress, you hit the wall hard and landed on my paraquat floor.
A few times, I think abt almost 2 years ago I threw you away because I was angry and sad. Sorry for that.
Sometimes, I wonder how my life would be without you?
You keep all my messages, my call logs and pictures.
Sometimes, I think you're so lucky to have such a nice owner like me. =D

Coz, if you were in the hands of others, You'll be gone long ago. hahaha. OMG. I'm talking like a mad woman.

I truly madly deeply love my phone. Although you're now 4 years old, you still look the same the moment I laid my eyes on you.


Same as Always. =)
Despite the scars all over, both of us gone through our ups and downs.



*Lights on*
*Reading....*

Movie?

I just watched Slumdog Millionaire.


....

My heart ached while watching it.

My throat felt so heavy and I was gonna walk out of the cinema right at that moment.

I could not bear watching it yet at the same time, I want to know how it ends.

This movie is the best movie I've ever watched so far in my 17 years.

I don't know which word to pick from to describe this movie until you watch it yourself. Touching. Bitter. Torture. Heaven. Gratitude. Brilliant. Genius. Brutal. Heartbreaking. Love. Sacrifice. gosh...

This movie is a million times better than the Benjamin Button movie.

oh dear... Now, I am asking myself, WHY THE HELL DIDN'T I GET THAT BOOK MONTHS EARLIER?!?!?!?!!! Slumpdog Millionaire is from the novel "Q & A" by Vikas Swarup. Arrrrghhh!!!!! I should've bought that book last year!!!!!! I knew it was a good book but... Never mind... I'm gonna get it anyway one way or another.

I like the main character in that movie. He obviously can dance ballroom. XD!!

So, go watch it. =)

This movie was nominated and won 3 awards for Best Films such as The Academy Awards, Golden Globe Awards and BAFTA Awards. Well, this movie won a lot of awards. Check this out.

anyway, push that aside... I'm starting to taste a sip what its like in the REAL world.. Its so complex and... ugh.. I need to sleep.

I can't seem to understand myself lately.... *sighs*

*lights out*

Unexplained fever?

About 23 hours ago, I was having high fever. My forehead and neck was as warm as boiling water. It was so warm that I shivered for like half an hour. I felt so cold like I was about to die of frostbite. But then again, its all about Homeostasis (To maintain a stable internal environment of the body) or otherwise knows as Negative Feedback. I force and dragged myself out of bed to take a dose of panadol. I slept in the living room for an hour and when I felt a little better, I went back to my room to sleep.

I was wondering what in the world is wrong with me? So many things were running through my mind. I dreamt about something. I forgot what was it about but if definitely made me feel so much better. Whatever the dream was, I stopped shivering. Thank you for being there when I needed the most. I never thought that you'd still be there. Oh dear.... *frowns*

In the morning, I woke up as usual for work. I thought I couldn't make it to work. I touched my forehead.

Why is it not warm? Am I okay? Wait, I thought I was having high fever? What the..... *touches my forehead again* Holy crap. How did I recover so fast??
Okay..... What on earth is wrong with me??

My mum was so surprised that I was alright. I don't know what happened and what is it supposed to mean but I am a 100% sure that this is real.

Ugh. I can't seem to express how I truly feel. I can't seem to find the right word for it. Maybe there's one word to describe it for now. Confused. I think I am confused with myself. How odd is that? I don't know why am I blogging everyday? Nothing better to do? Yeah... Probably not.

Ah well. Here's a song to end my post for today. I might not be updating for the next few days.




Thank you for this moment
I've gotta say how beautiful you are
Of all the hopes and dreams I could have prayed for
Here you are
If I could have one dance forever
I would take you by the hand
Tonight it's you and I together
I'm so glad I'm your man
And if I lived a thousand years
You know I never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you
that day
but if destiny decided I should look the other way
then the world would never know
the greatest story ever told
and did I tell you that I love you
tonight
I don't hear the music
When I'm looking in your eyes
But I feel the rhythm of your body
Close to mine
It's the way we touch, it soothes me
It's the way we'll always be
your kiss your pretty smile
you know I'd die for
oh baby
you're all i need
And if I lived a thousand years
You know I never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you
that day
but if destiny decided I should look the other way
then the world would never know
the greatest story ever told
and did I tell you that I love you
just how much i really need you
did I tell you that I love you
tonight
tonight
And if I lived a thousand years
You know I never could explain
The way I lost my heart to you
that day
but if destiny decided I should look the other way
then the world would never know
the greatest story ever told
and did I tell you that I love you
just how much I really need you
did I tell you that I love you tonight

Randomness II

I finished "A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Klaled Hosseini. He has a natural talent for expressing
every emotions and the minute details of everything. Its almost effortless. I was almost in tears reading both of his books. Every time I was about to shed my tears, something will distract my attention.

The first book I read was Kite Runner and I was reading it in office all through until I finish the last sentence. Every time I was about to cry, I was awakened by the ring tone of my customers calling to place their orders. I had to suck it all up and I can't be crying while talking to the customers right??

Ah well, I hope he is publishing a new novel. Pleaseeee!!

Now, I'm on a hunt again for fresh meat! Muahahaha! However, I'm actually trying to save money. I've tried secondhand bookshops but I can't get what I want. =(

For the past few days, I've been experiencing some headaches and dizziness. Its been a long time since I have headaches. ugh. Maybe I don't have enough sleep. I keep waking up late for work especially in the morning.

My emotions are easily swayed these few days. Thank you, Hormones.

I seriously can't stand the sight of smokers. I detest them right to the core! ugh. Public nuisance. Today, I came home smelling like a burnt chicken. ugh! Who on earth smokes in a car, you tell me??!?!? Your whole car will stink like FOREVER. No wonder I woke up a few hours ago feeling so sick and my body was aching everywhere especially my joints.

If you wanna smoke, smoke far far away and NOT IN A FREAKING CAR!!!! Its like a chamber of death. Mild torture. You wanna die in a car ar??!?! Imagine carbon monoxide filling up your car and you can't escape from your car. It may seem petty but people actually die from suffocation. omg. I really felt like I was gonna pass out in the car.

I need to sleep soon.

zzZZZZZZZZZ.....

Behold! My first paycheck! =D

*edits*

About 2 days ago, I has Sakae Sushi at KLCC. OMG! I love their Salmon Sashimi! I'm not sure whether its the best Salmon I"ve ever tasted but I love it.! =DD I love their tea too! Its green tea brew with brown rice. I'm not sure where can I get it. Maybe Isetan?

Oh oh oh!!! I got a new set of computer! My mummy bought a Desktop Computer. HP Pavilion. It comes together with a mouse and keyboard. how cool is that? My old computer is creating lotsa problems like :

Loose connection
Kinda slow
Its 6 years old!
what else? Blur Screen of Death?

The main problem will be the loose connection that drives all of us nuts. sometimes, we can't even on the computer because the connection was loose. So, my mum made up her mind to buy a new one. So, here I am using my brand new CPU. I like it. Windows Vista. My keyboard is so smooth and soft. Its like using a laptop. I am still trying to familiarise my fingers with this new texture. My fingers tend to slip once in a while. The mouse... well, its just an ordinary mouse. nothing special.

I still don't have any pictures in my computer now. I lost most of my pictures from my ex-CPU. My mum re-formatted me ex-CPU and use it as a backup in case she neeeds it.

to be continued...

I need to bathe~~!!!!!!! Theres no water and its almost 1 am now!!!!!! T.T

When people can't take care of their pets.

I'm not an animal lover but I love their company from time to time. Maybe it's because my mum hates pets and I'm not allowed to keep any pets with fur. Another thing is that I am also allergic to animal fur. Anyway..... Every morning on my way to work, I realise that there will be 2 small cups with food and water. Well, I was quite bothered by the fact that cats will be wandering all over my place since there's cat food. True enough, there's this cat that keeps on moaning and meowing when I step out of my house for work and when I am back home from work. It keeps on scratching on my door, sneak into my balcony and front door. What's worse is when I found out that that cat belongs to my neighbour upstairs.

They adopted a cat from SPCA recently. I don't really know what happen but it seems that the uncle upstairs hates cats and his wife had to put it outside. So, I was really annoyed and went upstairs with the cat. The cat was unbelievably adorable and attached. I wasn't sure whether the story was true, so I asked her..

"Auntie, is this your cat??"

*cat runs into the house*

"yeah, yeah, yeah! it is... Its not supposed to stay inside because uncle don't want it."

"Ohh.."

she quickly ordered her son to grab the cat. As she was picking up the cat, I told her off.

"Aunty, why adopt a cat if you have to put it outside. Why don't you just return it back?! It has been coming in and out of my house through the front door and balcony. It also makes a lot of noise."

"yeah la, I'm going to return it tmr."

"Yeah. Return it back lah if you can't take care of it."

She quickly took the cat downstairs and put it some where.

I really pity the cat. Idiotic people. Want to put it outside then better don't adopt it lah!! Then why do you think that SPCA Organisation exist?!?! For stray/orphan animals la that have nowhere to go!! Secondly, why even bother adopting a pet if you don't have the approval of every family member???!!!

There are more than enough of stay cats/dog in Kuala Lumpur already. So, don't bother rubbing salt into the wound. Such heartless creatures, human beings can be.

If I ever see that poor little cat wandering around here ever again, I seriously gonna do something about this. Tomorrow is my off day, so I can go make a report for animal abuse and bring that cat along with me. I don't think that cat deserves any of this.

Don't take care of animals if you can't take full responsibility on it.
If you can't shower your pet with love and fulfil their every needs just like your own child, then don't even bother thinking of having any pets.

Sheeesh...

Book Lover.

I am almost done reading "The Kite Runner" by Khaled Hosseini. Spectacular novel! It will be out in theaters soon. So, for those who are so lazy to read I think this movie is gonna be a fatastic movie that you wouldn't regret watching it. Thank You, Ji Mi for the lovely present! I love it.

About 3 nights ago, I went for a movie at Pavilion. It was 1.25am. I was so exhausted that I slept halfway through the movie. Sleeping in the cinema is something I will never ever do. Boring movie maybe?

Anyway..... Talk about novels, I love to read. I love to read but I'm not really good at writing a fiction story as it requires a lot of imagination. Back in school, I always wander off the topic for being too emotional in my essays but somehow I manage to stay within the boundaries of the topic.

I love reading novels with no pictures in it. It gives the chance to create my very own picture of the whole scenario. I don't mind reading in small prints until you need a magnifying glass. (maybe that is why I am wearing glasses?) I don't give a damn how thick the book is as longs as it keeps me wanting for more.

Everywhere I go, I'll definitely bring a novel with me. Whether I read it or not that's another thing. Nowadays, I read while working. Sometimes, I get too carried away that I forgot what to say to my customers.

I'll be reading "A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Klaled Hosseini, Stephanie Mayer's trilogy (I know I'm outdated but who cares) and Inkheart trilogy after the current book I'm reading.

Now that I have so many novels at home, I don't have a place to put them in order. I don't have a special place to keep them. I end up stacking every novel according to sizes then the author's name at every corner of my room.

My mum always nag at me about my books being all over the place. "Wait lah.... I'll clean it later", I said to her. She will be nagging continuously and by that time, I am already on mute as I know what she is gonna say. Wait lah.... Next time if I have my own house, I will have one special room dedicated for all my books. Dark Wooden shelves Like the ones In Inkheart, the movie. A broad glass window allowing the sunlight to brighten up the room and also white with violet curtains. The floor will be made from solid white Oak/Maple instead of Marble. I prefer walking on warm surfaces. A 3 seat sofa with 5 pillows and a blankets near the window. The most important thins will be the lighting's. The ambiance should be warm and peaceful. Then maybe she wouldn't nag at me. =D

I have a habit of keeping my books in excellent condition. I don't know whether am I the only one who feels this way. I hate people folding the whole page as a bookmark. I don't mind having a small fold on the edge but NOT THE WHOLE PAGE! I hate having beverages/ food spilled onto my novels. I really don't like people opening the book so wide that it soften the book. I don't mind if it is hardback cover but not paperback cover. I can't stand the sight of my front page cover being folded/damaged at the edge/sides.

I hate people who borrow my novels and not returning them until I ask for it so many times. Come on lah, have some courtesy to the owner of the book. I don't just read it one time you know. I read all my novels at least 2 times. If you're not reading it then you should just return it back. I don't deserve to beg/keep asking people to return my book. I work hard to buy my own novels using my school pocket money. I starve in school just to save enough cash to buy a novel.

(ok la, I did not actually starve in school but I just don't use my school money to buy food unless I really need it. I usually bring my own food to school)

I am a regular customer at Kinokuniya, KLCC. I can spend 6 hours reading(if I have a place to sit) reading and end up not buying the novel because I already finish reading it. XDXD =D I have 6 discount cards, 3 for 25% and the other 3 for 15% that I totally forgot to use. Now, I am so freaking pissed at myself for not using all of it I magine how much I could save!!!!!!

Maybe it wasn't meant to be. =( Its ok.

Of all the books I've read, I find some books quite irritating. For example, The Secret By Rhonda Byrne. Its a reallt effective book but poisonous at times. I believed it and it actually works! Sometimes, it it benefits me but other times, it is just disappointing and frustrating. I only read like half of the book because I was tired of the repetition.

Anyway, enough of books.

I heard that one of the question in out Paper 2 in Section B/C has a question error and it seems that they are giving a bonus??? I'm not too sure. XD

Almost everyone is coughing at my work place!! I wonder who did I got it from. *Evil stare* grrrrr....
