17 Weeks.

9.2cm in 17 weeks. The lil one is growing so fast! You can see her (most likely it's gonna be a baby girl, according to doctor) and that's one pretty long leg you see. And then you can her arms with her thumbs p covering her face. Shy baby is shy. Five more months till fireball pops you out! Ahhh! The whole world is excited for your arrival, you! Blessed Thanksgiving Friday! :)

So Good.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT CRAZY IS?

DO YOU REALLY KNOW?

I thought my mind was blown away already by the Big Man when I was blessed with so many things/people/events/circumstances that happened throughout the nine years of walking with Him.

Having my prayer answered to a laptop (I only pay half of total I spend on the new lappie) is already such a blessing!

But no.. that's not all.

Again and again He does it. Things that I never kinda think that it would happen on me. Or at least not so fast.

Four months ago, I joined this company with zero expectation. During that four months, I struggled and had some fun here and there. Deep inside me, I knew it was a God given career. I mean, I didn't send one resume at all after I finish my college. None. Zero. Elek. And then I got a call and here I am today.

Four months later, this happened. It's so unreal. IT'S SOO INSANE!

Like how joshyeoh would put it, blessed beyond measure. Totally!

A trip to Cherating Club Med, fully paid by the company.

Maybe I sound a lil 'too' happy and extreme, but hey, you're not in my shoe and you have no idea how it feels like. And I'm given this reward because she (branch manager) said that my performance is so good. Yes, she used those words 'SO GOOD'! *smiles*

And it's Club Med! And it's all paid for. And it's part of work. I love my job! :)

Thank you Jesus! You are so crazily awesome! :)

When God does things like that, it makes me cry. I shed tears in the car when I was trying to accept the reality of His goodness. It's insane really. God wows me every single time.

Drenched.

Heard this song while watching JosephGermani's latest (I think) video, Too Serious Too Soon and instantly fell in love with the song.

Not so much for the emo-ish lyric but the rhythm and melody of it. Or whatever music terms it supposed to mean.

The chorus especially. Ahhh. It's been a while ever since I go googoogaagaa over a song like that. I repeated this song for like the hundreth times already since 3 hours ago.

LOVE ITT! :)

Because I don't know how to download youtube videos (and also can't download stuff at work), so I'll just attach its link here. Even the way the video is made with the lyrics is so simple and nice.


when you kissed on that street, i kissed you back
you held me in your arms, i held you in mine
you picked me up to lay me down
when i look into your eyes, i can hear you cry
for a little bit more of you and i
i'm drenched in your love
i'm no longer able to hold it back

(my whole favorite part of the song!)

Night Cycling.

It's been so so long ever since I ride a bicycle. The last memory that I had was me cycling around my uncle's house in Lip Sin. That incident where I crashed and two feet landed underneath a parked car as I was doing either a U-turn or a turn (I can't remember). And I remember my big toe was bleeding and the pain was horrible! Yup, probably that's the last time I ride a bicycle.

That didn't stop me from giving it another try after so many years. I actually have kinda forgotten about the incident until when I tried doing a U-Turn this time on a real road WITH CARS! (a lil traumatised)! Oh, and best way to protect your toes is to wear a covered shoe or sports shoe (which neither did I had it on)

Thank God it did not rain. In fact, the weather was perfect for cycling. We all met at Logan Road and carpool-ed to Love Lane (I think that's the road's name. Either that, or it's Leith Street).

we went into a motel/hotel (however you see it) called Red Inn and rented 6 bicycles. Deposit per bicycle is RM100 (but we didn't have so much) so we paid RM50 for each as deposit and another RM15 for the rental. And that you may use the bicycle for the whole day. Pretty awesomely cheap :)

The boys. One more missing in the picture because they were somewhere else, the siblings.

So, we kinda vained a lil while waiting for the Leows.

I took the one with the lowest seat, and that my legs weren't long enough to touch the ground! 

Discussing on some issues. (cos we had to rent the other bicycle from another 'branch' which is not very far away).

Quick stop outside CIMB Bank. It's so nice to cycle around at 11pm onwards cos there were less cars and less humans.

How can we not drop by the place where everyone talks about in facebook. My first time of being here actually and taking a picture of it of course.

Cycled halfway, my chain-thing straight come out.

And then we had RM27 worth of fruits, bought in Esplanade. Mahal betul. Pre supper for us. After that, we went to Pelita and we ate rice! Cycle for one two hours straight got so hungry! Haha.

In the end of the day, i did not injure my toes. I did not fall. I did enjoyed myself a lot. And I did have sore butt in the morning. Night cycling is so much fun! Maybe another type of bicycle would be nice (with a softer seat and shorter ones too)

Have a blessed weekend :)

White Water Rafting at Gopeng.

I have always wanted to try this out. and Gua Tempurung (not that I haven't try explorring caves before), in fact I've explored Gua Gendang (which is said to be nicer than Gua Tempurung) and I remembered that experience was on top of the world. Loved that kind of adventure! Anyways, so Jack and his friends planned this trip so Koay and I tagged along. This kind of things must do with lots of friends so we can cho-siau together (the truth is, we're not close to Jack's friends or more to like we only knew them during that trip. Haha)

So, let the adventure begins! :)

We woke up at 4:30am and 30 minutes later, we were waiting for Jack outside his house.

We wanted to take a picture in the car but it was too dark, so we decided to shine our face towards the car light and snap! (things we do when we have so little sleep and with so much adrenalin running inside d!)

The only girl in this trip.  

Went there in two separate cars. I totally forgot to snap breakfast's picture. We had dim sum in Ipoh. And no, not in Foh San. It was the other one that's so called 'nicer' than Foh San. If I'm not mistaken, it's called Ming Court or something (just located opposite Foh San). My fav is still Foh San.

My 'attire' for this adventure. It's my first time actually wearing a leggings-like-pants. I never liked them, but after this time, it's pretty comfy. I think its quite suitable for exercise and outdoor-activities-like stuff. And the bag is so not me-type. But oh well, must try something new every once in a while.

The rest of the pictures during the rafting are all taken with Jack's friend waterproof camera and I took them with my faithful hp. So, it could be a bit blurry and all pictures are not in order (too lazy to re-organize them)
Walked/swimmed/floated in the water a while and there's too much sand in the shoe. So much that it's painful to walk.

Koay also needs to clear his shoe every now and then. No socks la thats why.

The boys pretending to pee together.
  
The eight boys and one girl .
Our 'boats'

Doing that choo-choo-train at the end of our white-water-rafting.

Halfway through those iced-cold-water.

Beautiful moment, captured (but blur)

This is the part where Koay will look at this picture and keeps on repeating "You're so cute you know. Like a lil girl. What a cute creature" etc. He repeated that so many times every time we talked about white water rafting. LITTLE GIRL!!? *faints*

So much water makes us very happy!

Take loads of photos first before the real thing begin!

They transported us deep into the forest with a lorry. That's us on our boat on the lorry. Pretty cool.

Colorful peeps on a sunny day :)

The boat/lorry ride was fun and attimes quite scary.

We just wanted to do something so that time passes quicker. We waited a while before we could really play!

My body looks so huge and not proportion with my two legs. How weird is that. Hmm..

Our lunch in a small hut. Like the hut, hate the lunch. So pathetic okay! With the total amount that we pay per person for the entire trip. Pfft.


TOO HUNGRY TILL PPL TAKE PHOTOS ALSO DONT CARE D. HAHAHA.

Goofying around with Jack Jack on our way home.

Poor boy struggled to keep himself awake on the road. Manatau I also have to be awake to constantly hit him or feed him with food so he doesn't feel sleepy. Balik rumah straight KO for few hours.

Such a great experience. I always thought that it's very dangerous of an activity especially if you don't know how to swim. The instructor told us that 70% of people will fall into the water if never follow instruction carefully. And boy, you do not want to fall into the water, esp those rocky ones. If you don't die, you'll end up hurting very badly with all the bruises around. Haha. And we didn't fall out. None of us. We did capsized our own boat though. More like the boys and the guide wanted to and my vote was.. pretty much not necessary at all. Such fun times! :)

On another note, I just realized a couple of things last night, over conversations with some friends. It makes me upset, so so upset. So disappointing, really. I never thought that you could be so immature, childish and revengeful. To tell all (or most) of your friends about it is totally nuisanse. Were you trying to 'win votes' or get people to 'pity your situation'? Do you even feel better after all that you've done? Feel more 'not-so-hurt-anymore' after all your friends and some totally random strangers know about it? You're so hilarious. I just don't see the point of you doing that. It upsets me. Even more now that I found out so many things about you that I never knew. Such a scary person you are. If you think it worked the way you wanted to, let me tell you it did not. It kinda backfired on you and your image and you are a girl sumore. People who spread rumors around unnecessarily often gets talked behind and being judged. So the next time you want to do something like this again, perhaps you need to think carefully if there's really a need for you to do so. Don't go around calling other people childish and immature when you are acting like one. SO IMMATURE AND CHILDISH.

Time and Health.

Trimester number two already.

I've always feel that time really flies. Like really really flies by us.

But looking at how the lil one is growing and how my sister is 'growing' too just gives time a totally different definition. Time flies? No.. time sneaks behind you without realizing it. It's freaky how three months passed just like that. It's freaky and crazy.


At this moment (16 weeks), lil one is starting to suck his thumb. And I'm the first one to feel him move in my sister's belly!! Okay, maybe the second one since my sister would have felt it first. No wait.. actually we both felt it together at the same time! *grins*

Can't wait for the baby to pop out. Cannot.wait.to.hold.you.and.kiss.you.and.love.you. Prayer for the momma and baby to stay healthy! :)

Even the baby stroller is my fav color. Awesome la. This baby is about to love green tooo! :) Oh btw, Jennifer Lopez and Kimora Lee Simmons also use this baby stroller, in a different color. Saja syiok wanna say. Hahaha.

Speaking of health, so I decided to spend RM1 to see how 'healthy' I am, at a shopping mall. Oh well..
First time see a machine with the blood pressure check thingy. Pretty cool.

So, the blood pressure is low and it has always been since few months ago. How to increase blood pressure heh.

I have no idea if that is considered as high rate of metabolism.. No idea at all.

Health, such precious thing in one's life. For sure, very precious to me.

Take good care of yourself, people. And stay positive all day! :)

Can't wait for some cycling tonight. It's been so long ever since I exercised.

08 November 2012

Days Like That.

One of those days again.

You woke up feeling great but then as the hours passed, more not-so-nice-things happened. (Best part of today would be the part where I've sealed two deals with two corporates and it felt so satisfying and good. It felt great)

And your mood slowly swings towards the red part.

I'm probably at that point where I passed the red point.

Not upset. Not angry. Not sad.

Just moody. Just irritated. Just annoyed, very.

I have no idea on what.

I don't like the feeling. Argh. (believe it or not, I kept drinking green tea hoping it will cool me down, sort of. Haha)

At least I actually tried doing something!

Oh ya! I went over to college at lunchtime and collected my grad photos. The part where I receive the scroll/cert/hardcpver thing, and the string of the mortarboard covered part of my face. Foto Prime, you suck BIG TIME. Even Mikael's photo is like that. Pfft.

I don't even like the picture. I look so expanded. (and again, I'm just in a really bad mood today..)

Class of 2012. (I miss doing finance..)

Good thing it's Friday tomorrow. I can't wait for Saturday night to come. Can't wait for white water rafting in few days time. (on another note, it doesn't help at all that I'm listening to slow songs now.. Hmm..)

Worry/Bad mood/Annoyed. Stop. Pray.

06 November 2012

Just Have To.

You know that moment when you've decided that you are not gonna spend money just before you walk into a mall?

That's what I did. Told myself that I'm not going to spend (even though I suggested that we go prangin to look for nice S2 casing) and I repeated to Koay so that he will make sure I spend no ringgit at all tonight. 

Total fail. 

It's almost impossible that I spend not on that beautiful casing (which I bought in the end)  and also changed my screen protector (so much for not spending at all, end up spend on two things!)

It's like I finally found that one thing that I really like and to walk away without it, it's just cruel and mean. Good thing Koay didn't insist on me not spending money. Heh. 

I must say that, I love it so much. So much to the extent that it feels like a whole brand new phone again. No kidding.

No regrets for this one, for sure. 

Bright colors make me oh so happy.

The Ball on Libra.

What a great week it was.

My first time ever boarding on a cruise so huge and so awesome.

So I have been waiting for this day to come ever since when we decided that we were gonna go for this ball with his classmates (no, I don't feel 'senior-ish' when I'm with them at all).


I shall just start with the photos that i took with my handphone (need a camera badly)
(my captions will be below the photos cos I just realised that usually thats where it is. Hmmm.)


We went for breakfast in the morning at One Corner Cafe and he had pan mee, and in the pan mee, there lies a long and huge worm! Yes, a very disgusting worm that looked like ikan bilis. I've always complained that he always stares at his food before he puts them in his mouth. I guess it's a good 'habit' cos this would be the second time already that he spotted an insect in his meal.

HIS REACTION UPON FINDING THIS THING WAS WAY TOO HILARIOUS!

Then, he waited patiently for me to cuci rambut. Such a good boyfriend you are, Koay.



After that, we all met in college at around 1pm. Waiting for the KL busses to arrive. (just out of sudden, I crave for iced lemon tea so much like no one's business. (Even Koay was shocked)

Can you just see that everyone's totally in cruise mode already?

But these two boys just have to talk about assignments and all I hear from them was "this article better" and "that article not so good". (So glad that those were the times and it's long gone for me)

So I escaped from the boys and stood with the ladies. At this point of time, I became quite restless d because all I want is to go, board, that ship! But no... we had to wait and wait and wait...

At about 2-3pm, they finally arrived and the registration stuff begins. There were so many of them.. All pretty and handsome peeps from the mad city. We didn't leave college immediately. We went for a few rounds of practising Waltz dance together with the KL peeps. It was pretty fun.

Then, we carpooled and drove to the ever amazing Port Swettenham. 

Boy, was I a happy girl. No need to carry own luggage sumore. Koay had got that covered :)

Another 'waiting' moment at the port's 'lobby'.

All smiles and no frowns!

So so so close but yet so so far at that time. It was just like I can only stand near the glass windows and stare into it. And it's true till Koay comes over and asked me to sit down and relax. Haha.

The anti-snorer and pro-snorer sharing a cabin. Hmm..

Our room keys. Good thing it's just a few doors away. Because there were so many cabins in there that one can literally get lost. No kidding! (and we get to keep the card after, AWESOME POSSUM!)

The big baby awaits for us!

The juniors. My juniors. (but I look younger than all of them!)
:)))

Total of students going onboard: around 200.

Too bad it was raining when we board the ship. Couldn't go up to the top deck to check out the open areas. We didn't have time also la cos we all needed to get ready for the night d.

See! And it goes all the way to the other end of the ship! But the hallway is so pretty and everything is so nice!

The cabin. Every room has 2 students though they have 3 beds. It's small and properly organized. I love everything about the room. Bed so soft sumore. Oh wait, the only thing that I didn't really like was how cold the room is! Not only my room, but Koay's room also freezing cold ehh! (And I didn't bring any sweater or thicker clothes also)

Toilet also very small. the shower place is so small that it can fit only one person (duh!) but it's cute and comfy in a way.

I believe comfort doesn't always come in big places and fancy toilets with marble floors or giant beds with fluffy pillows! Its there when you enjoy that every moment.

I crashed into the boys' room and forced them to take a mirror photo with me. Oh I feel special among the two boys! Those room pics that I took is of the boys because I shared a room with a pretty-MU-fan-girl from KL, and I don't want her to feel not comfortable.

Sidetrack a bit..the dress I got from Aunty Hui Ling's shop and mom's precious LV. I aim to own one LV handbag one day. I love the dress because it's so simple and black makes me look curvier (i think?)

I thought the phone was pretty cute. Didn't really think we needed to use also. Who would need room service when you're on a ship that has everything?! (Almost everything..)

Oh okay. So  I did snap a few pictures in my own room when she was taking her shower. Haha. That's our open-concept-wardrobe. And that's not my dress.

So after like 30 minutes or so, Koay came to my room and said that they are ready to go. And I was still like applying eyeliner on one of the eyes. And I quickly rush cos I didn't wait for them to wait for me *paiseh*. But then when I went into their room, they were like tucking in their shirts, looking at the mirror for like the hundredth times and spraying perfumes everywhere. And they made the girl *points to myself* wait outside the cabin. Pssh. Boys these days more aisui than girls. It's the truth.

I know I've already posted this one on Instagram, but I just can't resist putting it here again! He looked so handsome and I looked so gorgeous *perasan to the max*

:)

First up, we went to the Stardust Lounge where the 'opening' would take place. The place is sooo nice.

The boys actually took many vain photos here but it's not with me. I remembered everyone was laughing and teasing away and the night was just about to start. It's true that doesn't matter where you go and what you do, as long as you are with a bunch of fools like them, everything is memorable :)

Magician doing his thing. There were a few tricks I was wow-ed with. Just a few. He's quite good la but I'm not really a magic person. It makes me want to find out how they do it and it annoys me so much knowing that in the end, I will never find out eh.

And then we have some sort of 'icebreaker' game aka Scavenger Hunt, where you are given a piece of papers with a list of things you need to find in/of a person and get them to sign for you. Things like wearing green socks doesn't like to eat chocolate, loves reptiles more than furry animals, wears pink underwear and much other weird stuff. And guess who the winner was! *points to self* ME! THE ONE AND ONLY SOLE WINNER! :) (the 'grand prize' for the winner was just a pair of chopsticks with a case) When it was time for the lucky draw, Guess who got called!? *points to self* ME AGAIN!! What did I get? A pair of earphones (I must say that their gifts need to be better!!)
After the games, it's dinner time. So for dinner, we all get to choose to either go for the buffet bbq style or Chinese cuisine. We all opted for the cuisine of course since we didn't want to end up smelling like food.

We vained all we want because it's that night where we wear our best smiles :)

Kenny. Jun. Kar Loon.

Jean Van Buuren. Lean Soon. Raj.

Pei See. Kaylie.

Tyler. Sarah. Adrian. (Khoos overruled!)

Both looking handsome in their tuxedo.

The juniors, again. So, I joked and claimed that I went there as their photographer because every time someone said "GROUP PICTURE GROUP PICTURE", everyone will look at me and pass me their gadgets to snap. So, my face is usually not in their group photos! Haha. But I had fun taking their pictures., Afterall, it is their last sem of being together and making crazy unforgettable moments. And I'm blessed to have been a part of their crazy family.  *teary eyes*

We ordered 5 times of the 8-course meal. More than that for some selected dishes because they tasted so heavenly delicious! And one thing about a cruise is that we can keep ordering as how many times you want and there are no extra charges. Because everything is already included in the travel fee. IT'S SO AWESOME! :)

Their 'public' toilets are very clean and proper as well. There's one particular toilet that I went into that I didn't fancy. I went into one of the cubicles and after the door is closed (as you can see in the picture) there's still space at the side where people from the outside can see through inside. It doesn't look big in the photo but I PROMISE YOU IT'S HUGE! The whole entire time when I was inside, I was praying hard that no one walks into the toilet. They can just be looking into the mirror, applying some lipstick and they would see me, in my cubicle (don't like lose doors!)

Vain picture, tick. I just realized that there was probably a lady inside that cubicle in the picture that was as terrified as I was if people stand and look into the mirror. Good thing she wasn't 'exposed' in this photo that I took. Haha.

Upon entering the Boomer's Disco/Club. We were served with orange/mango cordial the whole night and danced to our heart's content. One does not need alcohol to enjoy the music and the peeps.

That night was the first time ever Koay asked (okay, more like pulled me) into the dance floor (which was in the middle of everyone) and danced romantically. For the first time in my life. In both our lives. Hmm... Silly romantic dude, he is. It was magical, people would say. I would say, it was out of this world. Best experience ever. And on top of that, he whispered "I love you" as we danced. And after that, we pulled everyone (almost everyone in our gang) to the dance floor and danced to fast music. I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO DANCE. ALL I DID WAS MOVE RIGHT AND LEFT (I probably looked like a silly girl lost in midst of nowhere) but I enjoyed myself so much. It was thumbs-up! :)

Then, it was time for Waltz dance in the open areas, top deck! After all that rehearsal in college, it was time for us to do what we do best. This Waltz dance requires you to switch partners at every repeat. Very difficult to explain here so in short, it was fun! :)

So you know we always tease each other and the single boys that they should just ask the girl they want to dance with to the dance floor that night and no one did anything. All they did was dance with the group or sit down and watched as their ladies are being asked by other boys. This guy went straight to the girl and asked her to dance. And she said yes. Go Jun! :)

After we took this picture, he silently walked to the bar area and watched MU vs Arsenal. True fans la this guy.

Best dressed male and best-dressed female.

While the boys were having their beer and discussing on which liquor to open, I took a walk on the highest deck and explore the place. Couldn't see anything as it was like around 1am. And there was no sharp-edge-Titanic-like *disappointed* Haha.

We decided to open the Cordon Bleu Martell, courtesy of Pei See's uncle. Heard that it's really good and pricey. And we have it for free. How more awesome can the night be right?

This is not a picture of him being drunk. No one was drunk at all. We didn't want to spoil the holiday! This is him taking a nap at 6am! I went to bed earlier than the rest of them which was around 4am, so I had 2 hours of sleep. I set my alarm to 6am so that I could catch the sunrise. After having no sleep at all, he insisted that he follows me to the upper deck to watch the sunrise. So kesian, he was like soo sleepy okay. And I kept telling him to go sleep but he wanted to be there to watch the sunrise together. This boy is a keeper. So sweeeet!

While waiting for the bright round thing to pop out!

The sky finally lighted up and he became more awake, knowing that we only have few hours left on the ship!

That's what we got. No sunrise because it was so cloudy and I don't know what happened. But we enjoyed the cold air early in the morning and definitely enjoyed his company.

The other boys were mostly KO-ed so we woke the girls up and breakfast away all the yummy food.

Our view as we eat sarapan pagi kami.

The suprisingly delicious food they serve. So many choices sumore.

After makan, it was time for some sun-bathing and swimming session!

I love the month of November, filled with occasions and getaways every week! :)




If only the sun was bright and shining on us. If only I wasn't that lazy to shower again, I would have gone to be in the pool. But I had a great time sitting down chillaxing and looking at people in their bikinis and watching the boys :)

And that wraps up the journey, with a complimentary pair of Rayban shades. Awesome it was.

Such poser boyfriend I have.

KOAY AH! WHY YOU SPOIL THE PICTURE!

KDU FIRST ANNUAL BALL ON A CRUISE.

Priceless memories made and will never be forgotten.
