Goodbye 2005

I'm excited! Countdown tonight! =)

Usually in the English new year i'm all happy. Only a month into the English new year later, which usually happens around Chinese New Year, would all sentimental-ness and stuff hit me bad. So i'll leave the reviews of 2005 and stuff till then ya?

Don't really have time to Blog now, so i'll make ONE major resolution here and then that's it, Happy New Year People.

Ya, so, i wanna lose 5kg.

Haha, kidding! I wanna work on being more assertive, voice out my opinions more and keep my mouth shut less. Be like the two people i've come to admire greatly this year. These two people u may not know but these two women, have qualities i admire and wish to emulate.

Just in case u might think i admire someone i don't admire... these two women are not part of the Blogosphere, as far as i know.

That's it, Happy New Year, people!

up my...

Had no idea what to blog about. So i asked myself "What's up?" and my answer was nothing's up my life. That's where i got the title...

Been pretty down today. Stressed. Stupid summer school. If u slack for a week in summer school, u actually slacked for 6 weeks. Everything's super fast paced. Half my summer semester completed.

And i'm sooo blur. Especially in Company Reporting. I go and try not to fall asleep in vain. Shit. And we're encouraged to ask questions, but since i'm so blur i have no idea what to ask.

Not to mention we came to the boring part of studying Consumer Behaviour. Assignments. Group assignment. Yuck... i especially hate marketing assignments. Consumer Behaviour is under Marketing...


Ps. Forgive me for misleading u with the title. =P This post should actually be named "Summer School 2005/2006 Part 5"

He is So Bossy in the...

My Christmas was simple and sweet (excluding the bus ride). With family. Cousins to be exact. Except for the host aunt (who is a damn good cook, thinking about her salmon...), all parents decided to miss this Christmas celebration, i don't know why.

Came back early to study but haven't studied much. Begins hating self.


Stops hating self and decides to write a LITTLE bit more about the other night clubbing.

Since my blog is like my diary (and since this would not offend anyone), i'll write here la. E's so sweet! =) He's super tall, i've mentioned. And in the club, he stood behind when the group's dancing (btw, the group consists of Is, J, another J, W, A, C, 3 friends of C, E and i)...

So, a few times throughout the night he kissed the top of my head! Since he's so tall. =) It's really nothing but i found it sooooo sweet =) =)

And cuz i was wearing heels... my head hit his chin a few times! Oops, sorry! Kesihan!

Also he cooked me dinner, he is bossy in the kitchen! Hahah. But it was fun la, hanging out in the kitchen... chat with his mum a bit... the 2 of us (me and his mom) teamed up and made fun of his hair, hahaha.

And she's so nice, she said, to him, "Next time refer to the two women in your life", hahaha, i like the way that sentence sounds!! =)


Note: Wrote the post first then came up with the title.

Clubbing: My Experience

Starting off this post with a thank u to J, who included and invited me out clubbing last night. =)


Except for a bit of foundation to avoid the very obvious shine on my forehead i get when i sweat, as always, i skipped the rest of make up part of the whole getting ready process. But that's the only diffence between me and other girls.

I do open my messy closet and claim i have nothing to wear! I've never shopped for clubbing. Borrowed stuff from my bestfriend next door. (= That's a poser picture of what i wore... very simple right?)

By the way, that's my new Levi's. Not a clear picture =P Try not 2 expect any clear pictures of me here ya?

Got there slightly after 11? No, i remember the parking ticket saying that we entered the car park at 10.50... Glad it was quite easy to meet up with the others.

I felt sesat for quite awhile at the beginning. Self conscious too. And my contact lenses were killing me, haven't worn them since October.

Was it Is who told me 2 get my drink? Ladies night so it was free. The bartender told me to try gin. So i was okay, gin and coke it was for me. I was also told to bring my glass back there for refills... and i sipped at it... a bit and then a bit more... until it was finished.

Our friends were talking... they said we HAD to open a bottle to get a table. Huh? Stupid, i wonder how much money the club makes at a night like that. Cost us RM380. About RM38 per person. In my head i paniced, was like shit!! Damn it, E already paid cover charge and u want him to pay to open the bottle? Thankfully i had the guts 2 tell them and they agreed to charge only me. Just gotten my pay from my telemarketing job as well as my Monash Open Day job, so i said yeah without thinking.

W asked if wanted to drink, so since i paid so much, i might as well get my money's worth la... not that i did get back my money's worth, not that big a drinker... Squinted in the dark to read the label on the bottle, Chivas Regal. I had Chivas Regal n coke.

Unlike J who didn't know what hit her, it took awhile (and some alcohol) for my self-consciousness to wear off. My contact lenses stopped giving me trouble. After that it was fun. Danced with the girls, danced with everyone, with E... =)

It felt good, u know, not being shy. Felt like staying there till the club closes, felt like tagging along with my bestfriend the next time she goes...

E didn't feel too well and sat down, moved to the beat a bit while seating. I sat him him, doing the same, wanted to be on the dance floor but as long as i got to be with him i'm happy. Actually, i felt that it was nicer sitting down....

Had another glass of gin, this time with sprite, from the ladies night thing. My 3rd glass for the night. The fourth was another Chivas+coke.

A lady was walking around handing out sachets.


There was some Durex promotion going on! Haha. People went onstage to win prizes... they had to do stupid stuff like use the new product in a creative way... Can't really see the stage from our table.

One more glass of gin and sprite before leaving, didn't finish that though.

Would like to brag that i wasn't drunk... but there was a difference lar. Balance a bif off. And i looked right when E asked me to look left. Dumb... Hehe.

But i could still think, i think. Cuz before leaving, at about 1am, since E had to work, i asked W for our change. E paid for me first and hasn't gotten back the balance. I knew that it wouldn't be easy getting the money back if we didn't request for it then and there... after some discussion, they said they'll pay us back another day. I'm sure they would. But i'll have to do a lot of reminding... and when i don't know, since it's Christmas and we wouldn't be seeing them for a few days...

Next time must save up loose change, preferably in tens and keep them handy at a night out like this.

There was a road block on the way home man! So lucky E never drinks... except for accidentally drinking a bit someone else's Chivas+Coke. Got home around 1.20am... before leaving his car i felt my neck itch.

Took a few pictures of myself and took a long shower. My allergy to alcohol hit me bad in the shower. My hands were so pale, i was shivering... got out fast. My skin felt like i had very bad sunburn, it was so tender, i couldn't wrap my towel around myself, it hurt. I loosely put the towel around me, rushed to my room, dressed, brushed my teeth, went straight to bed.

Didn't sleep well, woke up so many times. I felt so cold yet i can feel so much heat coming out from my body! It was so hot under my blanket. Yet i didn't sweat. My whole body itched. My hands were swollen and the skin at my finget joints hurt.


Much better now but the itch would come and go for a few days. Not like i never suffered consequences before. Ice therapy works...


Note: I'm not blaming anyone for anything at all. I am fully responsible for my own actions and decisions.

Summer School 2005/2006 Part 4

Fallen into the trap again... came online to print some stuff for class tomorrow. And then ended up stuck online, reading bloggies and stuff. Damn it. I had better print everything one shot soon so that i won't have the excuse to turn on the computer again.

So sleepy d, and i didn't do my tutorial work... and it's an important tutorial. Important lecture tomorrow too. For company reporting.

Summer School 2005/2006 Part 3

U know how teachers go "i'm sure u've all have read the text by now"???

And i'd be looking down, evading... laughing sheepishly.

In MKW2402 Consumer Behaviour, the lecturer says "i'm sure u all watch tv".

And guess what? Haha, same thing, i was laughing sheepishly... i dun watch tv one. Haha. And guess what was the homework? Go home and watch tv.

But not watch the show, watch the adverts... =P And yet i didn't do my homework! Hahaha, i found that really funny wei...

Most of the time it's fun but today's lecture was boring... =(

Anyways. Summer school has it's advantages. The campus is empty! Quiet, and i can study ANYWHERE, there are vacant chairs everywhere.

Also, free parking!!! On normal semesters the free parking's all taken up by 8am but in summer, i can just take my time and at 8.20 i can still get a good parking spot right outside the gate!!

And classes are short. So i get to go home early. Which means i can take the Federal Highway without getting stuck in traffic! =) Yay, i don't have to pay toll!!

Also, if i take Federal i'll pass by the place E works at. So i get to see him for a while. Bring him lunch/snacks etc.

And still i reach home so early, like now, i have time to blog... and then go jogging!

I'm not happy to go jogging per se. I'm just happy i have so much time... =P But i'll have to study later. Have to, have to, have to!! If u can please sms me asking "Are u studying??"...

Summer School 2005/2006 Part 2

Met a lot of seniors in summer school. Many of them have taken Company Reporting. And scary thing is... many of them ask me why the hell i take 2 subjects for summer. Gonna be real stressed up!!!

Even the lecturer said that we're very brave to do that subject during summer... shit, scary!! Gotta work hard so this is just a short post.

By the way i love Consumer Behaviour! Like psychology. And it's about shopping! Haha, in a way. And we get to look at funny/cool advertisements at the end of every class... anyone know how 2 upload video clips onto blogspot?? Then u can watch one of the adds we watch...


Ohh... and i had steamboat with my family today!!!! Yummmm... so full again, not good...

Since I've Been on the Topic...

Been so long since i watched tv.

2-3 weeks? Maybe more? 4-5 weeks? No idea!

Was actually nicely snuggled up in bed by 11, brushed my teeth, about to sleep (long tiring day, will get to it later), then i remembered i haven't read the sms i received. Thought it was from E and obviously gotta read his smses b4 i sleep.

But wasn't from him. Was from a friend, who is the cousin of the other friend who is a Miss Malaysia finalist. She told me that it's on tonight, the Miss Malaysia pageant.

Would not have sat in front of the tv otherwise.

Contestants are like, wow! All beautiful and slim. Saw them catwalk in batik first. Then it was eveningwear. Black eveningwear, really good tailoring, the dress made them all look really skinny, not that they need the illusion.

And during the evening wear parade, the announcers had to annoyingly announce their vital statistics man! Shiiiit... sitting there i was trying to not listen and do some sudoku...

If u didn't know, vital statistics is chest measurement-waist measurement-hip measurement. And it goes 36-26-36. All in inches.

Obviously, they all had small waists, like, 26 and below? The tallest is 5'11 and her waist is 26? I'm stupidly shorter than her by... 8 inches? No, 9 inches and my stupid waist is a 4 inches bigger than hers. =( =( =(

Wud do some sit ups now but i still feel full... Actually i feel bloated (had catered sort-off buffet with my mom)...

Maybe i'll seriously have to eat less la... or...

Maybe i'll try being bulimic. Just kidding... besides. Dinner was 4 hours ago la, the food is not in my stomach anymore and can't be puked... it's already in my intestines by now... right?

Anyway, back to my friend, she is hot... =) And i guess she's blessed, doesn't have to diet, she eats normally, u know, like economy rice and she snacks on Oreos and milk...

Sigh, maybe i have 2 admit that what E says is true? I'm a glutton... =( I over eat...

Back to my friend. So she's also a great person. Fun to be with. Easy to talk to. A few days right after the pageant i asked her about it and she told me about how she answered the questions. She was damn funny. When i watched the show tonight i remembered what she told me and was laughing away, not because she sucked but because i knew what was going on in her head. Poor girl.



Worked today (Saturday) . Yeah, again. Workaholic aren't i? This time for Monash open day. Peanut pay at RM37.50 for my day's work. Compared to my previous 2 jobs.

Was quite excited anyway at 1st but i was disappointed.

Pretty boring... until i went to give a Campus Tour! That was cool... not cuz i'm great at tours but because the girl i was bringing around is interested in science.

So i brought her to the science labs and let the 3rd year and honours students explain. Since i'm a business student. I mostly listened and asked questions too, like i'm on the tour instead of giving the tours.

Hehe. Cool yeah? And i get to look at all the microscopic stuff... and just be in these cool labs! There was this flame thingie that is 2000 degrees Celsius and there's this sterilised(?) room or something that costs RM2million to build! The guy said that most biotech students dun even get to go in there!

Only honours and some 3rd year students get to go in and there i was!! The other business degree student tour guide who was with me and i were openly "wow"ing looking up and around, squealing and giggling! Hahaha

That was fun! Also great to make friends. Though i can't remember all their names... =| Sorry! Hope i remember their faces! Really really hope i do, they're all so nice...

Finally!

E is reaching 'real soon'. We're going to eat steamboat! Yes!

Summer School 2005/2006 Part 1

Company Reporting today wasn't too bad. Made friends unlike lonely lonely Tuesday. Hung out and chatted. But a drawback would be that i spent the 2 hours break not doing tutorial work... Guess i'll have 2 do it at home and leave the breaks for socializing??

If i can stop all this laziness: i slept the whole afternoon today. And didn't go jogging. Haha.

A little bit more about Tuesday and yesterday's topic... is it true that if u shower after eating u'd tend to get fat?? A thin friend of mine swears by that rule and resently i've (reluctantly) adopted it...

It's troublesome. Especially when i have 2 fight for the bathroom... was so hungry and yet i had 2 wait for my sister and then my brother to finish showering before i get to shower.

And then after my shower i'll have to put on my 4 face creams, before i get to eat. Really impractical.

I've also heard that u should 2 try to not sit for 2 hours after eating. I heard that from my Biology teacher!!! Godammit, whether it's true or not, no waaaaay.


Ps. My butt hurts! Must be from the jogging, but isn't that strange?

My Blog Is Not Secret

Met D at the C-lab. She was reading her friend's blog and asked if i had one. Automatically, without thinking, i said yes. She then asked for my url. I was like, "don't want lar...", and then i had to go...

Thinking about it now, i guess i should have just given it to her. I mean... this blog isn't exactly secret yeah?

And by not giving her (and ST at work) the link it suggests i'm trying to keep this bloggie secret.

If that is what i'm suggesting, then if they do stumble upon my blog, they would most likely not tell me they did.

So i better stop it and give out my url. Since i would really prefer knowing who reads my blog...


Next topic is yesterday's topic again. I'm sorry and u can skip this part... So my bestfriend smsed me asking what my weight was. She said she gained about 4kg and was really upset about it.

Which made me super the upset lar, even if she gained 4kg i'm heavier than her okay? Where does that put me? Obesed? I am perfectly... err... average weighted lor, at 54-55kg standing at almost 160cm... but with friends like these i seriously feel robbed of my self confidence- they make me feel obesed.

Originally i didn't wanna go jogging today. My reason is that the soles of my Nikes and Reebok were coming out. (Damn it, i forgot to super glue them back again.) So i don't have a proper pair of shoes to go jogging in.

But after receiving her smses, Damn it, i went for 3 rounds around the lake at the park! In a pair of so-called-sports shoes that i regret buying. Feet hurt after that.

I think she did get the idea that i don't really like her complaining to me... from now on i guess i have to nicely but firmly tell everyone that i'm sensitive to the weight issue and barr them from complaining to me. Please don't complain to me lar.

I will have to cut them off when they start venturing into the fat issue. Gotta prepare a polite speech to give them...

or MAYBE... i should annoy them back. U know, become this 'jogging freak'... so that he minute they talk about weight, i start preaching... i start forcing them to go jogging. Go on and on and on about how good/cheap/HEATHLY/effective/simple/blah/blah/blah jogging is.

Until they get so sick of me lecturing...

Ahh, MAYBE then they would know better than to complain about weight to me again. Hehehehe, good idea huh?

Dun tell them k?? =P Like they can't read this for themselves as the title suggests.


Ps. Class-- Consumer Behaviour was fun! And the check from my 2nd job, the one on Saturday is already banked in!!! =)

We All Want What We Don't Have

So the dinner was good lar. Was fun. Ate in this Hong Kong-ish restaurant. Had my cheese baked rice and lots of fun talk.

But i still want steamboat. I'm making my mom prepare steamboat for dinner this Sunday i don't care, must remember 2 remind her. And tomorrow E and i are gonna look for steamboat for dinner. Don't think two steamboats are enough, anyone else wanna go have steamboat with me, Thurs or Fri night?? Please?? Email me at bay_bee_tea@yahoo.com NOW.

I want steamboat. Seriously. Badly craving for it, i could cry....

Am i pregnant?

Hahaha.

Anyways, tonight. I can't help but notice and feel VERY FRUSTRATED hearing the word "FAT". They just had 2 say it, don't they? "I feel fat". Irritating.

One day... i'll burst out and yell at them.

Sigh... calm down. So anyway, 2 of them curled their hair and one of them regrets, wishing she has straight hair again... To make a long story short, those with curly hair wants straight hair again. Those with straight hair, like me, want wavier and fuller hair... By the way, those of u who know E, did he tell u what he did 2 his hair??

And those with big boobs, at least 2 of those who were present today, wanted smaller boobs!? And errr... vice versa. Obviously.

Oh yea, and i've heard of many thin girls say they want to be fatter. And when they DO gain a lil weight... an unnoticeable miserable one kg or so they get upset and eat less. %^$@%&_*(*&^%( Damn angry at them okay? Been keeping silent and hating it. By the way, err, SI is exempted from this paragraph.

Ok la enough la. Sleepin now. Stupid summer school started. I'm so dumb. Why did i register for summer school??

Fat

U know that Hitz.fm advertisement that goes 'drugs took my friends away from me'?

Fat took my friends away from me!!!!

Not exactly making sense there but my reunion dinner with 7 of my friends nearly became non existant cuz one of them gained 3kg. She didn't want to go cuz the dinner is a buffet and she didn't wanna gain more weight.

Why must girls be thin? Why is thin beautiful? Why must i go jogging and not continue blogging? Why?

It's so unfair, my boyfriend and his school friends had 3 steamboat dinners in this month. When i first heard they were having a steamboat dinner i decided to plan one with my close school friends.

Been planning for about 2 weeks now and was so excited to go tonight and then this happens (probably eating ala carte' instead). Please please let everyone decide on the steamboat buffet dinner. Please!!

If no one would i think i'll eat the steamboat on my own.

Hope the restaurent allows such a thing.

Oh... yeah, there's one girl who can eat whatever crap she wants, like 2 large cokes in one day and never get fat. Maybe she'll join me for buffet steamboat lar...

Yer... but now i say until like, that only the girl who can never get fat and me eat buffet, i feel like i dun want already... cuz i'll get fat.


Ps. did not go jogging.

Life's Like That

Before we were even told what to do, we were given our cheques! Whoa. The guy said he trusted us.

Don't look at me that way, we were trustable okays? In fact a bit soo trustable i think i'm stupid.

Turns out we weren't actually working for GSC, the cinema. We were working for a bank. Sort of a promotion for a credit card, of course they didn't tell us that or we might have been a little reluctant to take on the job. Who isn't afraid of being asked to sell credit cards??

However, the job was REALLY simple. Me and my friend, LF, the one who got me the job were to just sit there and givbe out 2 tickets to the winners of this sms contest. Pretty simple.

Unless u wanna count fighting the temptation of running away with 1000 free GSC movie tickets. =P

The people collecting the tickets were nice. I mean, duh, they are winners and not people being pestered into applying for a credit card. But there were a few frustrated souls who had problems finding the cinema/parking. There was this guy all sweating...

And there are some that came all the way from so far-- the guy told us he came from Puchong (big deal, i came from Cheras, which is like, 20km further). And there were many dating couples... couples with kids...

And they asked simple questions. All the same, predictable and answerable, well mostly.

Pretty flexible too. It was just me and LF, trusted by the guy who hired us. I was smsing most of the time. And eating and chatting with LF, giggling and people-watching. Haha. Some people just walk past by the cinema over and over again from 10am to 10pm. Why?

And i went SHOPPING!!! Haha, yeah, again. But hey, i didn't plan to shop one ar. Just happen that McDonald didn'T have MY spicy fried chicken so i had to wait... and Padini Authentics was just nearby... and they had all those wagons filled with 50% off stuff... and i saw this top that friend of mine bought months ago, it's a white, toga top.

Original price-- RM39.90-- Unacceptable for me. 10%-30% discount was not acceptable to me too. 50%-yes! and i'd dig through all the clothes in search of what i want. Wasted a lot of time there, should have just asked the sales people... haha, which i did later on... they gave me my size, different colour but i think this colour suits me better so i'm daaaaamn happy with my purchase.

=)

And u know what??? Whenever LF and i have nothing to talk about there's no prize winners and when we start talking, someone would come up to collect their tix!

And they usually son't come one by one... they come 4 by 4... and it's not like they know each other... it's just strange...

And when i told E to call me... i was forced to not answer his call cuz people started to come (LF was on dinner break). And by the time they went off, E hung up. I asked him to call again. The minute he did, people started coming again!! His call went unanswered and he sent an angry sms... =(

Why's life like that?

And like i said, we're only a Ticket Redemption counter... but there was this guy who came up and wanted to sign up for the credit card!

What??? Damn!! When i'm not selling credit cards u come up and offer to apply for one?? WASTED!!! I bet if i do sell credit cards one day, everyone would avoid me like i'm a suicide bomber trying to give them a hug.

I told that to my mom (via sms) and she replied "when i don't want taxi they stop for me".

Life, ohhhh life. Why are u like that??


Ps: i AM tired. But if i don't what about this today don't think i'll ever write about it. Nights

Feels like Saturady today and and yesterday but not tomorrow

Ahh, Wednesday was the last day of work for me!! =) And yeah, we each got a goodie bag. With a little CUTE teddy bear each.


Yesterday and today felt much like Saturday, i get to wake uo late and go out all day!! =) Met up with my a few of my college friends yesterday- C, JJ, XY, YK and S. And we went ice skating at Pyramid!

Pretty crowded which made the ice all melted. I wore khakis, bitchily thinking "I don't plan to fall". Usually, i dun fall. But u know, i did. Haha, pretty obvious i fell, my pants was soaked all over the left. Haha.

Then we hung out, ate pizza, chit chat, took pix... with S's cam... were it my cam i'd post one pic now. Maybe when i do get the pix...


Today, i went SHOPPING with my bestfriend!

KLCC, stupid shit expensive carpark. Are all the malls (except Midavalley) 'pakat'ing?? Pyramid and One Utama no longer charge RM1 per entry. And stupid KLCC charges RM2.30 for the 1st hour and RM1 for every subsequent 30 mins! What the????

Luckily, we get a discount... hehehe. Won't talk about that. Wasting words, and time. So. Levi's had a 30% off a few items, only a few items. Levi's are known for never being on sale. (I read in my marketing book that Levi's are only cheap in the US).

I was happy to find the jeans i wanted were on sale!! But damn, the 1st pair i saw was size 24. Freaking shit small. Even my 38kg friend says she wears size 25. The next few pairs i looked through was also 24... =(

It's okay, if u knew me and my... errr... perseverance and patience with hunting for bargains, i looked through each and every item. Until i found it. Ahhh. ONE pair sized 29. I normally wear 28 for pants, but i decided to try it out.

Fits well, a lil tight but the sales lady says it'll expand after wash. And no i did not gain weigh ok!! The cutting must have been small. Haha, actually i did gain weight.

But shut up. I'm confident enough to know what weight and pants sizes are just numbers. Got me? Haha. I got the pair. Here's a pic of it.


Haha, the jeans are inside the red one! There was free gift wrapping service so i just had to get my money's worth. At least, i get a free box which i can use to wrap future presents. Blue's a gift for E.

Yay, i've got my life back. It's not like i'd ever be like those rich man's daughters in MTV, the ones featured in the programme 'My Sweet 16' or something like that (I dun watch it, my bestfriend told me about it). But i'm happy with my life. There are so many stuff i can't afford but there are so many other good stuff with good discounts.

But there are stuff with bad discounts. Before going to KLCC we went to this warehouse shit sale, it's in Taman Shamelin and by MO Outlet. They had Mumbo, Nike and some other brands. Stupid, the discounts are barely there. Don't go there unless u think RM95 for a skirt is cheap.

U see the smallest bag in the picture 2 above? I just bought a pair of Nike socks from this warehouse sale.



Anyway, yay i've got my life back!! Busy busy all the time. Actually, i've got my life back starting last Friday.

Was supposed to hang out with colleagues after work but E called to tell me that...


His father got us free tix for Hollywood on Ice!!

As much as i love ice skating (tempted to take up classes), the show got a bit boring and i started taking pix... Stomp was way way better.


Here's a pic of E and I, normally i don't put (my) pix up. But this one's blur enough! Haha. Forgot to turn on the flash. We wanted to take our own pix and this lady sitting in the back row offered to help. Such a nice person! I vow to be like her in the future. Hehe.


Saturday -- I went out with E and his best friend S. We had dinner at this restaurent called Marche'. At the Curve. The concept's simple. It's like a market. U enter, they give u this card. U walk to any stall and order your food and chop your card, u get food. Pay upon exit.

Food tastes good but I wouldn't go there again. Not worth the money. About RM30 a person. My bleeding wallet cried out in pain.

They pratically cheated me. It said "Salmon": RM10 for half a slice. I thought that was pretty decent since chicken costs RM12.50... so i had salmon. They guy gave me a whole slice and i thought noting of it. And i ate it, enjoyed part of it, jelak with part of it but acted like i enjoyed it anyway and finished every bit of it, i never waste food.

And tada, stupid bill... charged me RM20 for the salmon. Shit. If i knew i'd just ask for half a slice, it doesn't matter if i'm not full, i... have a lot of fats stored up in my thighs.

Add RM5 for the drink and stupid 5% tax and 10% bloody service charge. Stupid, didn't we carry our own food to the table???


Sunday-- E kena food poisoning?! We ate in Marche, about RM30 per person and he got food poisoning??

I hung out with two of my college friends XY and YW!! YW's got an Australian accent already! So glad to see them after so long. We went for this Batik Fun Walk thing... It's like a marathon but just for fun, and it's much shorter, actually it was too short walk around Bukit Bintang.

Would have been more fun if it were longer. We took a second round... haha, cuz we passed by a mamakduring the walk and it was so tempting we went back to look for it. Good shit. Decent price.

Wanted to watch Harry Potter but the tix are selling fast and by that they mean 2 rows from the screeen.


Monday -- After work i met up with D!! It's been so long since i saw her too, since... er... August?? She took me out to eat the famous banana leaf rice in the happening Bangsar. Delicious! I normally dun eat whatever vegetable it was but it tasted good, the way they cooked it. And the chicken- ayam masalah- WHOAAs... yum.... ohhh.....

The price was shocking!! RM4 for the rice and veg. Shiiiit. But i learnt that it's the standard price for Bangsar banana leaf rice. Another RM4 for the chicken... WEll, sigh, it's Bangsar.

Then D went off to her boyfriend. And i went to E's house to watch Desperate Housewives Season 2 Episode 8 and 9. So dramatic! Nice. Someone dies.


Tuesday -- What did i do on Tuesay, oh yeah, went to Midvalley after work with University friends-- L, Ce, ST and MF. Had dinner at KimGary's. One of the only places i don't mind paying RM13.50 for a meal. Cheese baked rice with pork chop and red sauce is the best ever!!!

It's heaven in a... tim sum like bamboo bowl. Hahaha. To me rendang is heaven on a plate. The tau fu fa + soya bean outside Monash University is heaven in a cup. So cheese baked rice, pork chop, red sauce is heaven in a tim sum like bamboo bowl. To me. Hahaha.

We just chat there, joked around. Made fun of L's manhood, haha, deduct points for every unmanly thing he says. And then we went over to MF's house, played with her cute dog!


Wednesday-- Boss asked us if we wanted free premiere tix to Narnia!! Since there were no takers, i took it! Yay, E and i went. Was fun. Some prize giving ceremony and an anniversary. Free buffet dinner too u know??? And there's this little gift for each of us!

And one really good thing about Malaysian movie premieres is that no one really dresses up. It was pretty casual lar. I wore jeans and a Body Glove tank top to work and that was what i wore to the movie without feeling one bit out of place. Would've been really impractical to go home n change.

Movie's good! Makes a bit no sense that the people in Narnia had 2 wait hunreds of years for 4 kids to show up before the can go up against the ice queen... but that aside the movie's nice.

That's our ticket to the movie. =)

And what's up with the title of this post?? Yeah, cuz i've got a job tomorrow. A day thing. If you're stopping by One Utama, come see me okay?! I'll be working at GSC from 10am to 10pm.

Gotta go sleep.

This Week At Work / Exam Results / Name Prefixes / Pasar Malam Chatter

Monday-- Bad news-- more workload. Good news-- We were all given internet connection to help us work faster!! =) Before that only two computers had internet connection cuz they were afraid we'd chat and not do work... =P

Eyes killed me... they hurt so bad that i left work at 4pm, forgoing RM2x. =( Don't rememer much else.

Oh except that i went home and slept from 6pm to 6am and had horrid dreams. Dreamt that E had a worn-out denim Calvin Klein jacket among other dreams... haha, u know jeans material looks good even when-- especially when it's worn out? And in the dream he loves it (and looks good in it, hehe). And... it got destroyed because of something i did.

Wait... writing about the dream here... i guess it symbolizes something... the money he lost, i blame myself a little...


Tuesday -- dragged myself to work. Don't remember much else. Didn't have time to blog which annoyed me, slept early to care for my eyes. (The one year post was written in advance cuz it was kinda special to me la and i wanted it to be right)

Oh i remember, Tuesday, work sucked big time cuz i was told that the job period was extended to the 7th December. And that just eats out of my holiday. =( I missed my friends deeply, and hang out plans were postponed cuz i work. I feel like i have no life.

Wednesday -- even BEFORE i started work, my eyes hurt... they were half-closed. I had zero enthusiam. Maybe it was psychological??

I complained to E. I wanted him to take my place on the job. I wanted to quit, but i think quitting would be a damn waste of $$. Good pay = good pay lost if i quit. I told him i'd only quit if he took my place. And well, so he called the big boss... and he told me she was mad... die la me.

Shitted. I thought she was gonna come down and kill me and everyone would know everything. I felt like a little piece of shit, i hated myself. Felt like i was this annoying little pesky tempt who gave her stress for no reason.

But thank god big boss talked to me via small boss and small boss's really nice lar. So i was given the choice to quit or stay, the choice is still mine cuz they kinda need us, deadline's coming up.

But small boss told me that if i quit E won't be able to replace me. They want someone who has worked with the company before, cuz their deadline is coming up. =( So, i stayed. Greed.

Then i saw big boss when i went to get a drink... 1st time i passed her i pretended not to notice... but second time i passed her, i mustered up the courage to apologise. Thank god, she was sweet about it. =)


Exam Results

Hehehe, have to thank JS, for smsing me, telling me that results are out! =) Hahaha, from that u can see i'm happy with my results. =)

Two subjects-- Accounting B and Marketing i got a B... which is a Distinction in Monash. Whoooopie! Hahaha. And the other 2 subjects... low credit for Law, okay la, but i really wanted a high credit la, hey i studied throughout the whole semester ok, and i read the whole dumb text u know... and for Trade Finance and Foreign Exchange i got a Pass, which is a D. Muahahahaha. Ok la, at least i passed... but really wanted a credit...

And u know, remember how i said i got the highest for the 1st marketing assignment?? Another person got the same marks as me. If i worked harder for that second marketing assignment and gotten the same marks as that person... i would have gotten a High Distinction which is an A. =( What a waste man!!! All blogging's fault! Haha

But i'm overall happy about my results... though it could be better.


Name Prefixes


Oh yea, yesterday(Wednesday), the most professional of us, the guy without any piercings or tattoos (that i can see la, haha), the one who quit and was called back (cuz they're dateline is coming up and he is the most efficient), he blew up. He started cursing with the 'f' word. Really loudly "FUCK", he sweared! So unlike him, we were stunned!

He said he was sick of Malaysia and all those titles (Datuk, Dato', Tan Seri, Tun, Datin etc etc on top of Mr, Ms and Mrs). Yeah it can be irritating.

He said he was scolded by some lady. She told him that he should have done some research before calling up the other company. He was really frustrated. "Do they sell a book that states who is a datuk?" he complained.

I emphatise with him. I mean, how should we know? And our job is to call to verify information such as these, we are calling to know whether that person is a Mr or Ms or Datuk or whatever, why the hell should we do research beforehand?? Finding the darn phone number itself is sooo time consuming.

"I've had it with the people here" he said, and in my mind, i thought, what did we colleagues do?? Haha, he realized his mistake and corrected himself saying that he was sick of Malaysians in general. Poor guy.


Pasar Malam Chatter

Today's work was okay la... nothing special. But i had more of a life today. Haha, went to pasar malam with E, haven't gone there in so long.

And there was a nice guy, he's a father with his family having asam laksa at the same table as us. He spoke to us... and chatted a bit. Really a nice guy. He asked if E and i were siblings or friends! Hahahahahaha. E pointed at me and said "My girlfriend".

Then the guy said "So young already dating?"

And i was like "errr... i'm 19".

And then he said "you look younger". Wah... hahahaha, good good. Then he said continued "you look like 20 something" referring to E. Wah, good good good! Hahahah. =)

He and E chatted about some other stuff and then he talked to/about me la, he said "you look like a very loving person," and asked E to confirm it. Hahahaha, so nice right? =)

And he said more nice and accurate things "can see from your face", "animals all also u love", "u have a light around u, an aura", "if u shine the light can see". Haha, crap like that la, but very flattering. Hahaha.

Ok, gonna sleep now.

Wait, must put corrections or u'd think i'm this perasan bitch. The accurate part about what the guy said is "animals all also u love".
