Summer 07 Collection: 01

I know, its winter now in Aussie... but what the hell, i wanna post this LONG overdue pictures!

Had a yummy picnic and pitched a tent!

With a whole day at the beach we got around to burying someone!

Deb's the victim!
She took it with grace, love her know-it-all expression!
Dee gave her a kiss


A pic of the girls

I think this one is on my Facebook?

My boyfriend and i!

My bestfriend and i
Black and white. Or white and black.

Two totally different individual yet the best of friends. Miss her like shit. And damn proud of her scoring all Distinctions this sem in Master in Communication!

Ugly pic of me but gotta post.
Cuz its Deb, i miss miss her too! 8 years of friendship! She's so pretty and carefree here

Whats a trip to the beach without a dip in the ocean?
To bestfriend's local friend,
"Those are not waves, those are ripples!"
Her exact tone and her Aussie slang remains in my memory

To get rid of expiring bread, we fed the seagulls

They sure can catch

E looks like the Lord of the Seagulls! Look at these boys:-
One feeds them and one shoots water at them!

Dee and i wanted to give it a go.
After that we ate some really good fresh seafood at a shop along the beach.

A few days later, E and i brought the visiting girls to Victoria University.
The VU girls and E, the tour guide

I always wanted to do these on-the-grass picture thing
Too bad i dont have one of these in my OWN campus.

One evening we went to Koko Black
The four of us shared something that was meant for two
Don't ask me what it is, i ain't no food blogger. The fact that i even HAVE a picture of it before everyone dug in is a miracle, u know?

Hey, can you figure out whats wrong with these pair of Adidas?
Most of us couldn't see the defect at first, but once you do, its glaringly obvious!

Seteressss

Drove 2km in 50minutes yesterday evening. The jam was THAT horrible. I could walk faster than that. And the worst part was, i wasnt even going home!

Instead, i was driving from my client's place in Changkat Raja Chulan at 6.45pm back to my office in KL for a meeting at 7.30pm-9.30pm for my next client.

Shit anot my Friday night?

Briefing was stressful as i am going to do an audit for Financial Services. I'll have to audit one WHOLE unit trust on my own! Senior says its like a small company. OMG.

Exciting and also damn scary lor. So much reading/preparing to do on my precious weekend.

And to make things worst, i have to go to office later to help out with performances for the 18th, its like... annual dinner, but its not. Each new-joiner batch over the past one year has to perform.

Feels like school all over again. To rehearse and to prepare props for a skit. Extra-curricular activities...

I freaking miss uni life, the June-July holiday part especially!
In 2007, i was in Mt Buller
2006, i was in Redang
2005, i was in Genting and Penang

This year i sat in my client's cubicle and stared at the date, looking back at my past three years of uni life. Its over, its really really over. Never again, will i be that carefree.

Being single

It was horrible

Every morning, insanely early in the morning, E will be the first to send me an sms, calling me honey, wishing me a good day at work/ drive safely and to tell me he loves me.

No such sms for me on Monday morning. Parked my little Kancil at the parking lot and fought back tears. Two drops escaped my eyes and i wiped them away.

Carried on the rest of the day alright.

But when it was time to go home, i felt something was missing, i hate not being able to sms each other all the time (outside working hours).

It's as if he left me, i could send smses but they would not be replied.

He called me that night using the pay phone / public phone from the camp's canteen =)

Its so old school but so much better than nothing! I could have gotten used to waiting for him to call from the public phones each night..

but GUESS WHAT?

I dont have to! HAHHAHA, in that call last night he said the doctor in the medical check up FORCED him to defer because of borderline high blood pressure. He needs to get a specialist to exempt him entirely tho.

By the time i got off work today, we are in each other's arms again!

He's leaving me

E's really really leaving me

=(

He says he's not leaving me, he's being taken away from me...

Four and a half years ago, he was one of those listed for National Service.

Deferred a year and decided to get it over with the following year but wasn't able to.

Then after that, in newspapers and such when they printed names of those who are supposed to go but haven't gone, his name wasn't there anymore. So for the past 3 years we thought he escaped it.

Until one fine day, his mom received a registered letter summoning him to go for NS.

Noooooo... why must they take my baby away from me? Why cant they let him off on weekends at least? Why?

We will have to miss our 4th Anniversary unless they let him off on the Merdeka weekend =(

Apparently he's not the only one. She has to go too. And one of my colleagues as well.

Had a small meeting in Chilli's the evening with a few of our uni mates just to catch up.

Half of them couldn't make it, just a few of us.

Butter

As opposed to Mon, Tues, Wed... today was okay. The client's employee in sales belanja us a nice yummy lunch and lots of chit chat as if we are all just uni mates. Loved the butter fish fillet man! Bill was probably RM100 for the 4 of us.

I was finally given a section to do instead of more vouching-aka-glorified-data-entry-work. Left office at 8.10pm but it didnt feel that much of a drag.

At 4pm, i was staring at the clock, though. I was thinking... other people get to look forward to going home at 5 or 5.30 but for me... 4 o clock just means another 4 hours... 4 hours is like, half a day to other people!

One perk of driving home so late is that the roads are like butter. Smooth. No more traffic jams. Took me 22minutes to drive at 80-90kmph from Kelana Parkview in Kelana Jaya to Cheras. Cool eh? Not one traffic light. Did not stop once.
