It's Been Awhile ~

It's been ages since I've updated. Nothing much to update and also, not much time to do so too. Hmm, let's see . . .

• Meet up with the group of girls from CONVENT. It's been so long . . . And good to have met up with all of you too =) We'll most probably be having another gathering during CHINESE NEW YEAR. Hope you girls can make it.
• Got some BIRTHDAY gifts from Karen. Thank you so much. Got an early one from Max too. Thanx aiai XD
  
• Exchanged CHRISTMAS gifts with Yuki & Yuri. Thanx for the gifts =)
  
• CHRISTMAS was well . . . CHRISTMAS presents are still not opened cos Tengii's present hasn't arrive till now. So yeah . . .
• Went to watch AVATAR & wow *__* Would like to watch it again if I have the chance.
• FYP is going kinda slow . . . *sigh*

I guess that's about all so far. Like I said, nothing much happening. The only thing that happened is that both the hamsters in my house are bloating up. My mum treated them like they are her grandchildren. One of the first things that she do when she wakes up in the morning is to feed them. And she's always asking us if we have already feed them (but she doesn't care that we ourselves have not eaten anything yet). And those 2 hamsters get to stay in the air-con room the whole day . . . I have a feeling that my 2 poor dogs are being abandoned by my mum >_>

And I still remember it clearly - on one day, she asked me if I've sprayed the living room with insect repellent. I thought she was concerned that we (the whole family) might get bitten by mosquitoes. Instead, she continued her sentence:

THOSE PESKY MOSQUITOES MIGHT BITE MY GRANDCHILDREN

My jaw dropped =_= lll Is my hamster more important than me now o_O?

KenKen



Wonder what he's looking at



He looks so small curling up in his running wheel, but when he comes out, OMG O_O



Unruly fur . . .



Acting innocent . . .



MinMin (Tengii's hamster)



Chewing my mum's hand massager



Notice the glowing ruby eyes ?



Still munching away like nobody's business



MinMin used to be slim. And I mean SLIM. We said that he's vain. Always 'jaga badan'. But recently, he bloated up too (thanx to my mum ~_~)

~ Lies ~

When all that you know is a lie;

When all that you believe is a lie;

Yet all along you knew it's a lie;

Would you still have continue believing it ?

I would - it's the only thing that keeps me going;

The very thing that breathes the essence of life into me;

So just leave me alone;

And let me drown in that blissful lie . . .

~ Dear Beloved ~

This is kinda random.
But it just popped into my head suddenly.
Wanted to get it out, so here I am.
Aiai, this is about us.
Suddenly, I feel like I'm Kinomoto Sakura
*only not as pretty as her*
And you're Daidouji Tomoyo
Especially the taking pictures part >.< lll
You're always showering me with gifts, love, attention & support.
Eventhough people might misunderstand us =x
Eventhough I've never told you this sincerely.
Eventhough a simple thank you will never be enough.
I would still like to say . . .
THANK YOU
And HAPPY BIRTHDAY =)

P.S: Off your phone Tomoyo-hime =x

~ Please Don't Leave Me ~

It's scary how fragile a human life can be. Max, I'm really sorry for your lost. I don't know what to say or how to console you cos I know losing someone can just be too much to bear. You acted indifferent towards him sometimes but I can see that you really love him with all your heart. I can see that you feel so happy by just talking about him. I'm pretty sure that Zo is a nice guy although I did not have a chance of knowing him at all. Max, it's all right to mourn and it's alright to cry. But I do hope that you will be able to make peace with yourself soon. A lot of people out there still care about you. And I'm sure he'll be watching over you too.

Here's a little song dedication for you and Zo. Hope you like it.

P!nk - Please Don't Leave Me

Da da da da, da da da da

Da da da da-da da

I don't know if I can yell any louder

How many time have I kicked you outta here?

Or said something insulting?

da da da da-da

I can be so mean when I wanna be

I am capable of really anything

I can cut you into pieces

When my heart is....broken

Da da da-da da

Please don't leave me

Please don't leave me

I always say how I don't need you

But it's always gonna come right back to this

Please, don't leave me

How did I become so obnoxious?

What is it with you that makes me act like this?

I've never been this nasty

Can't you tell that this is all just a contest?

The one that wins will be the one that hits the hardest

But baby I don't mean it

I mean it, I promise

Da da da-da da

Please don't leave me

Da da da-da da

Please don't leave me

Da da da-da da

I always say how I don't need you

But it's always gonna come right back to this

Please, don't leave me

I forgot to say out loud how beautiful you really are to me

I can't be without, you're my perfect little punching bag

And I need you, I'm sorry

Da da da da, da da da da

da da da da-da da

Please, please don't leave me

Baby please don't leave me

No, don't leave me

Please don't leave me no no no

You say I don't need you but it's always gonna come right back

It's gonna come right back to this

Please, don't leave me

Please don't leave me, oh no no no

I always say how I don't need you

But it's always gonna come right back to this

Appetizers ~

Deviled Eggs that I made for demonstrative speech

Clock wise:
Tower Crackers by Sydney,
Italian salad by Fiona &
Philippine salad by Shima

Finally finish doing our demonstrative speech today. No more speeches for now. Hooray~ The girls and I did appetizers from 4 different places - Italy, Philippine, America & Rome. Fiona did Italy, Shima is Philippine, Sydney did America & I chose Rome.

I had to come out with some decorations cos my plate is kinda big. The tomato roses were pretty easy to make XD As for the lemon slices, it kinda popped into my head this morning itself. Ahaha ~_~

The whole speech turned out better than what I've expected. Am glad that all the food were gone as well. Just hope no one ends with with diarrhea. Didn't realize that the mustard just expired until Denise/Dylane pointed it out. Or was it Esther? But oh well, since it's only 2 teaspoons for such HUGE portion, I doubt it'll do any damage to anybody at all. XD Now I'm just hoping that the marks that we get will be okay too ~_~

For those who wanted the Deviled Eggs recipe, here it is.

• 12 (a dozen) hard-boiled eggs


• 1/2 block of Kraft Philadelphia Cream Cheese (soften)


• 3 tablespoons of Mayonnaise


• 2 teaspoons of Dijon Mustard


• 2 teaspoons of lemon juice (or white vinegar)


• 1 teaspoon of sugar


• 1 slice of ham (diced)


• Paprika

** Ham can be substituted with shrimp, spring onion, caper or caviar.

1. Put the dozen of eggs into a saucepan and fill it with water (at least an inch above the eggs). Bring it to boil and remove it from the heat. Leave it for 15 minutes. Scoop the eggs out into some cold water. This will help to stop the cooking process as well as to cool the eggs. (you might need to change the water for a few times).


2. Remove the shells and cut them length wise into halves.


3. Scoop out all the egg yolks into a bowl. Put in the cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice and sugar. Mix them well.
   
4. Pour the mixture into a Ziploc bag (pastry bag can be used too). Cut off 1 end of the Ziploc bag. Squeeze out the mixture onto the empty egg whites.

5. Top each of the egg with a piece of bacon.

6. Arrange the eggs onto a plate and sprinkle some Paprika onto the eggs.

You can serve it just like that or you can pop the eggs into the fridge for an hour or two if you like them cold.

Something To Ponder About ~

I think sometimes we're so busy with life or we take things for granted that we don't really see what's what anymore. There are times when we neglect what people around us might feel - forgetting that they are human beings just like us and that they are capable of feeling all the emotions just like us. There are also times when we become so selfish and forgot who we truly are as well as who our true friends are. These questions/ideas have been playing in my head for quite some time now and it's kinda bothering me. So I thought maybe it'll do me some good if I let them out . . .

1. Just because you have an issue with that certain someone, doesn't mean I have issues with that person too. Please don't expect that I will distance myself away from him/her just because of the issues that you have between yourself. As a matter of fact, if that person is not bothering me in any way at all, I don't see why I can't be friends with him/her.
2. It's ok to have new friends and not stick to your old friends all the time. But please do remember that your old friends are human beings as well and whatever good or hurtful things that you've done to them, they are capable of feeling it.
3. Remember the times when someone who was close to you did you a favour? I do. And although we might not be as close now, I still appreciate and treasure everything that those people did for me, be it something trivial or important.
4. Ever wonder which person is true to you? I do all the time. Those people never neglected me when I needed them most and are happy to be with me even when I don't need them (so to speak). People that hang out with us all the time, people who share the same interests as us, people who are cool, people who we like gossiping with - true all these people are enjoyable to be with. But not all of these people were there when I'm down. For everyone who has always been by my side, and will always be by my side, I can only say Thank You from the very bottom of my heart.
5. It has always bothered me that some people don't seem to have empathy for others at all. Take for example, me. I've been down with eczema frequently for the past 1 year. To those who understand or at least tried to understand the pain and troubles that I have to go through, again, I want to say Thank You. For those who didn't, it is ok. But please remember the next time you see someone who is less fortunate than yourself, don't make fun of them. True, it doesn't happen to you - you're not blind, you're not handicap, you don't have cancer, you don't have obesity, you don't have down syndrome, and so on. But please do remember that there is such thing as Karma. Just because you don't have it now doesn't mean you have to laugh at those unfortunate people. What if one day it happens to you in the future? What if it happens to your family members? Or worst, what if it happens to your future children, can you still laugh at that time? Or will regret be of any use then?
6. I find it a little irritating when someone says "who and who has 24 hours, you have 24 hours. Then how come who and who can complete the task in time while you can't?". First of all, I would like to say that anyone who asks such questions are truly shallow to me. True we both have 24 hours. But I need to spend time going to the hospital, I take longer time to take a shower cos of my skin condition while that person don't. Another thing is, everyone has different lifestyle. That person might be going clubbing, gaming, reading, etc while I don't. I might be sleeping all the time while that person don't. So why compare? I never compare anyone of you to the apes - both humans and apes are created by God, so why can't I compare the two then? The next time you find yourself asking such questions, please ponder about it longer so as to not make yourself seem stupid.
7. Call me stupid but I never understand this part of some human beings out there. When I like something, they call me lame, crazy, etc. But when they like something, they're always cool and not crazy. When I do or plan something, they say "crazy ah?" But when they do or plan something that is even more illogical, they say it's ok. In front of me, they say "yea, that was so highschool man". But in front of another person, they say "sure, count me in, I want to go badly". Really pretentious and two face isn't it? What is in the logic of this again?
8. (Kinda similar to no. 7) why condemn WHATEVER that you don't like? Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean that everyone else has to dislike it. Take this for example, you like branded stuffs, I don't bother - so I choose to ignore all your "branded stuffs shopping". I like stinky food, you don't - so you stay off stinky food then. I didn't ask/force you to eat them with me. Heck, I didn't even ask you to come near me when I'm eating it. Why do you have to roll your eyes or make some nasty comments everytime? I don't know about other people, but I certainly get sick and weary of it.
9. Last but not least, why condemn other people's sexuality. They're trans, they're gay or they're lesbians. So? What's the big deal? It doesn't concern any of you now does it? They love that someone because they love that person. Not just cos that person is of the same sex of them or something like that. It doesn't concern any of you people what they do behind the doors, and to those who think that they shouldn't adopt children because they will probably turn those children into gay/les/trans, please go educate yourself. Just because your mother is a woman, you turn girlish and just because your father is a man, you turn manly? Is that it? No right? Then please THINK before you condemn/make fun/make stupid and groundless assumptions.

Anyone who has read this far and got offended, I'm sorry. I can't help it if you're narrow minded =) And anyone who has read this far and did some pondering, good for you. Anyone who wants to comment/flame me, you're welcome to do so. But no extreme rude words please, think of other readers =)

K-ing, Food, Shopping, Present & Headaches ~

The 4 of us (Fiona, Shima, Sydney & Me) went out yesterday to celebrate Shima's and Sydney's birthday. We went K-ing and let's just say that it was a hillarious + slight bitter experience. We went for Discourse Analysis in the morning and after that we thought we might as well take a cab all the way to Low Yat Plaza for K-ing. A BUNCH of girls snatched our cabs away and we were really pissed with that somehow (mainly cos we waited like 40 minutes just for a cab and the weather was really hot).

But 1 girl totally left us in shock to the point we forgot to flag the cab. She's a chubby girl wearing this short shirt and low jeans + heavy belt. So yea, her jeans was sagging and you can see the whole lump of belly fat + belly button there. She was also carrying a file and a chillie red umbrella. The way she walks was really funny and then the unthinkable happened. She stopped right in front of us, and began to use that gigantic chillie red umbrella of hers to flag the cab. She was waving the umbrella up and down so vigorously that I think the cabbie stopped cos he was afraid that she might use the umbrella against him or his cab if he doesn't stop. The 4 of us watched with our jaws dropped and well, we forgot to flag. When Shima finally try to stop the cabbie, the girl was already in the car. And yea, after that we laughed like mad at the bus stop. That was the hillarious part. The bitter part was that our cabs got snatched away like 4 - 5 times.

So nevermind, we finally got to Low Yat and it was around 2p.m. We didn't have any lunch and barely any breakfast, so all 4 of us were starving. To our horror, the waiter say that we can only order lunch after 3p.m. Ok fine. We waited till after 3p.m. and ordered. The waiter actually asked why we need to order 4 plates of rice instead of 2 - 3 plates. Hmm, let's see. Because they were starving us by not letting us order till after 3 =.= Anyway, moving on, Sydney really shouted in nearly every song till her voice cracked today =.= Whereas Shima said I was just 'whispering' on the microphone -__- lll

Finally finished at 6p.m. and we went to look around in Sungei Wang. We went into a comic shop and I couldn't resist buying a few posters. I mean, who can actually resist Sebastian ? And cos of my big mouth, I said that the L figurine was cute. The 3 girls actually went ahead and got it for me as an early birthday gift. Talk about early ^^lll Anywayz, thanx a bunch girls. Really love that figurine. After that we wandered around a little longer and finally went back. Tiring but fun all in all I would say (although I woke up with a headache this morning).

Here's some pictures of the figurine and also the posters that I bought. K-ing pictures are not with me. And oh, the last picture which is the Mummy yielding a whip one is done by none other than RedCat. Bro, among all your work, I have to say, I like this one the most. And they really look like our avi in IMVU. Maybe you should have used some white or red roses as the flowery background instead? Lolz. Pharaoh the Sadistic Ruler =x

And deer, please don't feel offended by this or anything. It was just random thoughts and me and meow really like it XD
