It's almost the end of 2010..

Already?

Darn it - wtf happened to the whole of 2010?

Since i'm so free at this ungodly hour i shall take this chance (finally!) to update what i can remember for 2010.

So here goes.

1. Celebrated the boyfriend's birthday at Daidomon. Noms.

2. Celebrated our anniversary at the Daily Grind. Two years (well almost 3 now) and still making it happen. Although we chance upon an accidental meet I'm really glad US happened because you make me the happiest girl around :D Although every other day we drive each other up the wall we strive to understand each other a lil more every single day. Ily more with every passing day and i hope that you know that.



3. Got into an accident on April Fool's Day. Haha, the joke is on me FML. Shall not like prank people anymore. I remember i called the boyfriend at like 2am to tell him that i've gotten into an accident. He yawned and said "Haha, April fool right? Okay you got me!" and then i started crying like a bitch and yelling my head off then he believed me. Haha, who's laughing now?

4. Traveled almost the whole of Peninsular Malaysia early this year for work. I can't say i loved it or hated it. The best was that i had good company by my side. I can still remember the late nights room service and breakfast by the rivers of East Coast and of course driving with almost zilch petrol on the highway from Kedah back to Penang Island. Also the infamous driving with our eyes close to Johor. Both Vv and i were trying our best to stay awake and constantly screaming at each other so that we'd keep each other awake. I'm glad that THAT is over.

5. Left my old job after a year to pursue my bigger dream in the big industry. I've been here for 6 months and I never stop learning something new every single day. Met loads of different people from all walks of life, made a whole lot of new friends and all i can say is that i am glad that i am a part of a big picture in a structure.

6. For some reason in July my friends and i were feeling merry and drank like a fish. Must be all those months of being sober. Hmmm.

7. Attended MTV World Stage. Probably the wettest freaking concert, ever! It just wouldn't stop raining! Looks like the weather bomoh didn't work. Pfft.

8. Turned twentyf*ckingthree, omg. Alright, I've been pretty blessed all these years so thank you God!


Thanks guys for throwing me a so called 'surprise' birthday at Ms Read & for dunno what reason this is the only shitty picture i have of me doing God knows what. But hey, i look reallllllllyyyyy happy :D

9. Drink, drank, dropped. Just realised that i drank quite a bit this year! There seems to be a lot of alco images in my folder.

Hmm i heart kilkenny, noms.

And then my stomach problems cam back and i fell really really sick. I was definitely not in a good place :(

So next year's resolution is DRINK LESSER before my medicines go and FTL just like Momzie's eye cream. Haha, i actually find this really funny.

10. Reminiscing the college days & the nasi lemak wtf. I feel so old. It felt like only yesterday since I've left college. Suddenly i have a career ahead of me and suddenly i feel the weight of responsibility on my shoulders. No more allowance from the parents, paying for my own car/bills and being a real adult (as oppose to fake? Haha)

Oh my degree is dated 1st August which happens to be my birthday. Something which i thought is really really cool. Haha, it's like UOL gave me my degree as a birthday pressie for my birthday LOL :D

11. Lined up like a MF for the opening of Uniqlo. I don't even know why the boyfriend and i did that. Best part is i didn't even buy shit cos there were too many people and all i wanted to do when i got into the store was to get out. The boyfriend on the other hand had a jolly good time buying the whole men's department. Pfffttttt.

12. Technically i'm doing an update for every month. So since December isn't over yet I'll blog about this soon :D

Alrighto. I'm gonna consider this settled for now.

Just realised that as per my older blog post I was suppose to write to the future me. Hmm. I'll do that realllll soon !

Till the next post, i'm off.

Yawns

Reminiscing

The other day the bf and i went to KL to fix my poor car which has been clonking since forever. Being the curios me (well, for my own safety too!) decided to get it over with. Apparently we found out that there has been a missing screw which fell off my battery latch and was hanging about near my gear box hence the annoying clonking sound.

Oh well at least now i figured out why.

So after that we decided to go town for dinner and as we passed by my college i thought about the nasi lemak. It's been 2 years since i've been back that place & i suddenly have some craving for it.

Pardon my finished plate - i was really hungry! :D

So many memories were left at that little lorong. So many things the girls and i talked about.
Its funny how time vanishes from our lives. It felt like only yesterday since we've graduated.

I remembered how we called this rundown place that serves the most awesome kopi ais kau (really good to perk us up for the loooonng lectures) our little Starbucks. And they have the best steamed bun ever! Okay, maybe i'm being biased.

I remember us talking about London, New York and Europe. I remembered how we laughed at all the silly things which happened in our lives and of course all the frustration from not understanding a particular question.

The little nasi lemak place which opens after 5pm. The sambal & chicken combination can bring me back to 2 years that easily. Nothing has changed. The stall uncle still remembers who i am. He even said to me "Wow, its been a long time!" - i honestly have no idea why this post sounds so melancholic.

I guess this really means i'm growing up.

And in a sick twisted sort of way - i miss being in law school. I miss being part of something which was so familiar.

Finally - trying to keep my resolution alive

Finally I'm actually blogging again after over a month.Been so effing tired and my daily routine is like - sleep, work, sleep, work. No time to eat also wtf. So far its been a good experience and it is definitely something new and something worth giving a shot to be good at however it can be really tiring at times AND frustrating.
Anyhoo enough about work. Will blog about what I've been up to for the past month.

Okeh here goes..

• World Cup happened and glory glory Spain :) Although I've been a supporter of England but one should never never have that high hopes for the country. We all know they did the best they could. Oh well, next four years it is then.

Us at FunkyVilla watching the devastating lost of Argentina to Germany. Pfft.

• There was a H1N1 attack in the office and the gave us mask. Instead of wearing them like all good employees should - Veron and I drew er faces for it :D It was quite entertaining actually.
  

That's my workplace at the back. Its been taken over by heaps of paper now -__-

• Went to watch a bunch of half naked, spandex wearing & testosterone overloaded guys compete on whose bloody biceps are bigger. It was a great experience though.

• Last but not least - MTV World Stageeee ! :D Daddykinz got tickets for us. It was an awesome experience. What sucked though was of course that it rained the whole night - thank God we weren't sick the next day. All in all - it was great! Tokio Hotel rockeedddd oh and so does Bunkface, Katy Perry and Wondergirls (although I'm not really a big fan. I've always thought they were annoying, LOL)

• Oh last but not least - I pranked Joseph on FlyFM's Pagi Show Alarm Call. Swear to God it was the funniest shit ever. LOL

Alrighty till the next post - toodles :D

A year older

I'm a year older - FML.

I wanna be 21 every year.


:(


Anyway been really really really really busy - promise to update real soon, i hope.

I better be keeping that resolution to blog regularly.

Darn it.

Of sniffles and my last day (tomorrow!)

Lack of update recently because was crazy with World Cup during the weekends. It's like the only time where I get to watch the game and that also it was some lousy half arse game. What happened to all the good teams ?!

Anyway I've also caught the effing flu bug recently. I'm like totally downing on flu meds and today I've developed a cough ! TA-DAH, freaking awesome, FML. I went to work on Monday and found myself tearing the whole day.

-__-

Verance got a little worried and dragged me to the clinic which I totally said NO. I've had it with going to the doctor's. I've been there like 3 times already last month and this month.

So tomorrow is my last day at my current company.

I will miss this company definitely. I would have to say it provided me with a good platform to be someone good and if not - great. I definitely can't say enough 'thank yous' to show my pleasure of working with the company so far. I learned how to use Excel from scratch, haha (something which I am very proud of tyvm) and its all thanks to a very very patient manager :)

I think I'm quite blessed to be in this position so far - at least I can really from the bottom of my heart say that I do not hate my job! (Seriously, how many can really say this from the bottom of their hearts? )

But nevertheless tomorrow will be the last day before I embark on something new.

These 11 months have been filled with ups and downs, tears and cries, joy and laughter - this is definitely the memories I'll keep with me forever.

Thanks once again.

My Water Moments

Anyhows the whole point of this entry is because Nuffnang is giving away 3 Sony TX5 to of course 3 lucky winners of the 'My Water Moments' contest. This reminded me about the fact also that I have not really blog about Redang. So this is like a super combo blog entry of the contest submission and my trip to Redang :p



I love the ocean, period.

If a person have to describe me in one word it would be - VAIN. I love taking pictures but unfortunately for me I don't own a camera. So last year when the boyfriend and I went on our getaway to Redang Island I had to borrow Lis's camera.


Her camera was a life savior ! I can't imagine going to the island and not taking any pictures. First of all it would be uber sad and second of all the bf and I would have no photo memoirs over there. These are the moments where I'll actually like to be able to look at again in passing years.

But then again - I can't be borrowing her camera for all my trips ! :(
(actually I did when I went to Cambodia as well)

One thing I'd like to digress upon is that if you've ever been to Redang you'll know how breathtakingly beautiful the corals and the little fishes can be. I remember the tour guide took us out and we went to see these tiny little creatures called the 'Christmas Trees' .. which obviously I had no photos of. But it looks something like this ; (I googled this, haha)

Touch em' and they go back into their habitats. Uber cute ! :D


This is about the closest photo I have of us with the sea taken with Lis's camera by someone else which was on the boat.

Now take a look at this lovely little thing..



The new CyberShot TX5 proves to be almost indestructible as it is water-proof, temperature-proof, dust-proof and shock-proof. See, now don't have to worry about dropping the camera into a bucket filled with ice liao..


This is a picture of me waking up to the Redang sunrise - its a good picture.
But sometimes good just isn't perfect. If only Lis's camera had the Sony TX5 Handheld Twilight Mode - I think the picture would make a big difference. It could have been a perfect picture.


The view was awesome.

And then I tried to take the picture at a different angle just to see if I could have fit the whole view into one shot. Obviously - that didn't work.

The wonders of Intelligent Sweep Panorama can help to create panoramic landscape shots of whatever views or scene you want to fit into one picture. I think this feature would be great for functions & parties as well (as it recognizes faces&subject) as one will be able to take a whole group of people chatting away & smiling together in a picture. Great moments like these will put a smile on anyone's face when looking back.

Anti Motion Blur mode will definitely help for those shaky pictures which I take - NOT MY FAULT LEH, MY HAND SMALL so hard to hold the camera. Oh, thank goodness the Sony TX5 is the 'World's Slimmest Water-Proof Camera' and since it is shock-proof as well so even if I ter-drop it its safe to say that the camera won't die on me.

Blurry image of us. My hands are small, period. Also imagine if you realise that the photo taken was blur then you'll have to take it again which cause more frustration hence the angry looking boyfriend. Anti blur motion mode not only helps you take a clearer picture but prevents the boyfriend from getting angry after 1000000000x tries at attempting an awesome picture :p *hidden technology, don't play play*

Compact cameras = good to bring out = good to camwhore anywhere - Almost every girl's best friend.

Anyway my main point is I really need a camera.

I don't think there is any other point and the fact that random series of ideas seem to put this post to a perfect conclusion - I really could do better with a camera of my own especially all I'm using now is my E71's camera.

Oh and last but not least of my Water Moments ; I present to you our RM10/picture taken underwater in Redang.


Why would anyone wanna pay RM10 for a picture ?! What if I have 150 pictures ?!

Answer : I'll use that money to buy the new Sony TX5 - got 1RM change some more.

Okay thankiu bye wtf.
