I was back in Ipoh since last Friday. My sister is back too. And my Dad is back too. Chinese New Year this year should be an awesome one because all my aunts will be back with my cousins. We could finally get a complete family portrait. Oh yea.. I got a new camera from my Dad. I have yet to use it. I was fiddling and experimenting with it last night. Read that manual; play with it and now it's lying inside the box.
Did a little spring cleaning. Will continue later in the evening. I am full from my dim sum breakfast and I am rather lazy. I have a long day ahead me tomorrow. Needs to apply for my new identity card and driving license as well as my ATM card. Let's cross our fingers that the bank will allow me to reapply my ATM card with a temporary ID. What else eh? I need to take new photograph for my driving license and settle some university stuffs of mine. I am in my final semester! I am just three months away from graduation. How cool is that!! I've waited long enough for this moment..
I have to spend a little time to do researches for my final thesis. And I got some assignments to settle too. So much things to deal with but so little time. I can do this! No worries.. and I totally need to learn to drive. It's so embarrassing to have my younger sister to drive me around. Damn! I am so excited to celebrate Chinese New Year. I am definitely going to utilize my new camera with pictures of glorious celebration ever after Christmas. Actually I love Christmas and Chinese New Year the same. 2011 is going to be a great year!
My new camera!
Chinese New Year is just 3 days away!

I had a pleasant weekend. I always do. Mine is usually spend with 20 cents and his family and also in church. Last weekend, 20 cents had to work late so I was waiting for him at his house; watching American Idol 10 and Junior Masterchef which I wanted to watch since the ads were on the idiot box. Helped his mother to do some chores while watching TV. I was throwing two birds with one stone. And a simple dinner with 20 cents followed by our usual Tesco window shopping routine and supper in Lok Lok Street in Puchong. I had Bubble Tea!! Weather is getting hotter hence Bubble Tea routine is catching up everyday with me. Happiness!
My Sunday routine usually starts in the morning by attending service followed by fellowship. Then, nap and dinner with 20 cents. We had Bak Kut Teh yesterday and they had Yau Char Kuay!! Yumcha session with 20 cents' family in our usual mamak place. Damn.. I love my weekends! And The Big Bang Theory is back!! I made 20 cents downloaded the two episodes for me and I watched it. Woot woot! How awesome can my weekend can!!
Two or three weekends back, I went fishing with 20 cents in some kelong in Pulau Ketam. I was rather reluctant to go when he told me about it. I got issue with Mr. Sun, you see. But I agreed to go anyway. It was tiring like mad. I only managed to catch a fish called Ikan Pulut which I threw back into the sea because it's too tiny and we don't eat such fish. I caught a colorful crab and it fell back into the sea before I managed to reel it up. Damn.. I was so excited that the crab was swinging side to side when I was halfway reeling it up. Oh well..
Waiting and waiting..
For the rest of the hours we spent there which was from 8.30 am to 4.30pm, there weren't any fish at all. 20 cents' friend managed to catch a Ikan Merah, Ikan Pari and Ikan Pulut. All are palm hand sizes. Better than us.. we waited for hours but no avail. It was tiring but heck lots of fun. I don't mind going fishing again actually if there were more fish for me to catch to bring back for makan. I want to catch a 25kgs Kerapu!! Despite the tanned neckline of mine and no harvest, it was nice spending time with 20 cents. Instead of our usual Tesco window shopping, this is probably a better idea to spend time together. Did I mention that I was at risk of allergy when I cut baits?? I did get rashes after that but it's alright. :)
I caught a fish!
Chinese New Year is just another week away! Can't wait!
And I am going to continue 3o Days Challenge soon :)

It has been a week since the unpleasant incident happened. I'd be lying to you if I said I am not scared. In fact, I was really scared. I think I am traumatized by the incident. I kept on having flashbacks of people pulling my bag from behind. It wasn't pleasant at all to have such flashbacks. All I knew was that I couldn't stand the idea of walking alone to college anymore. When 20 cents merely suggested that I should walk out to pack dinner, I broke down and cried. I was that weak. It was so bad that I get really paranoid about my surroundings. I developed some sort of paranoia in me that I get worried seeing people who are a little unpleasant physically. I am not discriminating but it just freaked me out.
Besides the fear, I was pissed too. I was angry that I was not as alert as I should be. I was angry that those idiots took away all my belongings which caused me aplenty of trouble to retrieve it. I was really pissed off. But the anger is not gonna do me any good. And so does me being upset will not retrieve my bag back to me. 20 cents was really supportive of me. He made sure I am alright all the time though he has to work and it isn't easy for him to see me scared. I tried really, really hard to be strong. I tried to think happy thoughts. I tried so many things to keep stop thinking about this incident. It kept on flashing back to me where my bag was snatched.
No worries.. I am not crazy nor I will be one. I went for cell group last Friday and I kept telling myself that I get all the supports here and also from up there. I shouldn't be scared because the more fear I instilled in myself, the more of these incidents will happen. I should brave myself to walk to college as usual but with more precaution, of course. And I need to believe in Him that He will give me peace in my heart. He will protect me all the time because He is in my heart. 20 cents kept on telling me that I should wipe away the past instead of letting it haunt me because it will somehow affect me. Yes, he is indeed very correct. I guess I needed time to adjust to what happened and I believed that He will heal my pain.
Went to church this morning and my pastor gave a prophecy that He will be faithful to me and the breakthrough is coming soon. I quickly said Amen and grasped those Words. I knew it is for me. I just need to have peace and patience in myself. He is going to give me the biggest breakthrough ever. And I will be blessed with thousand folds. I guess.. in order to have all these things, I shall put my head into the positive mode and keep on praying for my breakthrough. I knew He has plans for me and He will prosper it for me. I need to be strong to have all these things. I know I will.
And I am truly blessed to have my family with me. I can't wait to head home for Chinese New Year! And of course, 20 cents and his family to be with me and take care of me during this time. 20 cents has to be the most awesome and supportive boyfriend ever. He probably agree with whatever I said because oh well.. he is my awesome boyfriend. I am also blessed with great friends who talked to me and accompanied me. And even to fetch me in and out from my house to college. And the ones who ensure I am alright by calling and texting me. Come to think of it.. I am already experiencing the Unusual Explosive Overflows.
I feel even better jotting down my thoughts than to have it glue in my head for a week.
I Stand In Awe of You
I personally love this song a lot. I think it was Hillsong. Call me bias but I prefer the Florence Lee version. Hehehe..

Probably by now.. everyone in Facebook knew I got my handbag snatched near my house in KL.
I was walking back home from college. Went to get textbook but it was closed. Packed food and walked home. I have always been very careful but bringing back out. So, I make sure it's always carried inside.
So, I was walking home and I was nearby my house. I was just a few doors away from my house. I heard motorbike nearing me so I walked faster. And it's getting nearer. This "sohai" (sorry for my French) snatched my handbag from behind and he didn't manage to get it. He struggled and forced to snatch until the straps broke. I threw my Nasi Goreng at the fella and the bag fell down. I quickly grabbed it and he pushed me off. He ran to the bike with his accomplice and left.
I was yelling and screaming. The neighbors nearby came out. This uncle ran out and chased but failed. And all the aunties nearby came out and consoled me. Went back home and waited for the boyfriend to come over. Made a police report. No injuries except for a little bruises on my left arm but I am fine.
Am still in shock but I am going to be fine. I am stronger than that. I have Him in me. Thank God that He sent his angels to prevent me from getting injuries.
Those staying in USJ2 or anywhere nearby there, please please be very careful when you are walking back.
The description of the "sohais"
Both wearing helmets. The one driving the bike was wearing a BLACK tee and BLACK jeans. The accomplice was wearing a BLUE tee and BEIGE shorts. The motorbike is rather new and it's BLACK in color.Both are Malay, young guys.. in their early 20s.
And if any of you happen to see my handbag threw into drain or wherever, please let me know. My handbag is Black in color, medium size with a huge black flower in front. And there's a grey color bag organizer inside. Black straps are broken :(
I copied and pasted the above from my Facebook account. I am still traumatized. I didn't even have the guts to walk out but I ain't got a choice because I have to attend classes. Last night, I kept on waking up because I kept on having flashes of the idiots snatching my bag away. 20 cents kept me company the whole night. I cried the entire whole day and this morning. I thanked God for 20 cents because he really make sure I am alright and fetched me to classes so that I won't have to walk out myself. And he was late to work because of me.
Losing those materials are probably the worst thing ever but I seriously thank God that I didn't fall nor am injured from the incident. I can't blame anyone because it was really my own fault of carrying a handbag out. I could have prevent such incident from happening but the clumsy me somehow attracted these jerks to snatch my bag. I learned a lesson to never, ever bring a handbag out. And to not fight back too because the gung ho in me didn't think of my safety. I could have die if they have weapons with them. I was thinking the whole day about the incident. I seriously thank God for protecting me.
And I have great people in my life that cares about me. My parents made sure I was alright. My family ensure I am alright too. And 20 cents and his parents too. Of course, my friends who accompanying me and consoling me. It's great to have such friends in life. Thank you everyone for your concern. I am still scared but I shall brave through this fear of mine. After all, I have only 4 more months left here.
I am going to be fine. 30 Days Challenge will be postponed until I am ready to write again.

Your views on mainstream music
If I am not mistaken, the definition of mainstream music means the recent and current music right? Right? Wait.. let me Google! It stated that it's a sort of music where the majority likes. Top 40 and all! I totally love Top 40 songs!
My views eh? I love music and I love singing. I guess I got not much of negative remarks on mainstream music. Except for the mainstream music that has nonsensical lyrics. I can't really think of any but I sometimes dislikes MTVs that manipulate women as sex objects. You know.. those hip hop ones.. where women are dressed up in the most revealing clothes ever just to cover their "important" parts. It gives the images to the audience that it is totally alright to portray themselves like that in the public. I get a little agitated with feminism lately.
Anyway, I am into the latest, nice songs. I don't go for noisy ones. I still like the oldies like Beatles and The Carpenters. My friends think I sang like Karen Carpenter during our karaoke sessions. I guess I am flattered. Wait.. I am supposed to give my views on mainstream music. I like it so not much things to say I guess.. and I am actually hoping to stumble across Britney Spear's new song and I never had the chance to listen to the radio recently. Damn..
This is the song I am totally into lately.
Despite Amy Winehouse's image and reputation, I think she is damn talented. I love this song to the max!

Your favorite Tumblrs
I heard of Tumblrs but never use it nor I bother using it. I heard it's a micro blogging thingy. I am way too long winded to actually sign up for a Tumblr account. Oh well..
Guess this challenge today is not applicable for me. And yea.. I got NO favorite Tumblrs.

Your earliest memory
I totally have an awesome memory. But I have a friend who begged to differ. Oh well.. my memory is rather good as compared to many people I knew.
The earliest memory I ever had was when I was three years old. And it was also a very painful memory. That was the first time I smelled blood and it smelled so fishy that I remember the smell up till today.
I used to stay with my grandparents in their house when I was a kid. My parents were in Brunei working and my baby sister stays with my parents. As for me, I stayed with my grandparents and my youngest aunt and uncle. That explains that I am very, very close to them especially my grandfather whom I fondly known as "Yeh Yeh". Anyway, our house had couches with wheels. I guess it was like the "thing" back then.
It happened when the house phone rang and the excited me just learned how to use the house phone. I jumped onto the couch which moved. And I fell down. Best of all, I fell onto the nail. A frigging nail which was on the floor that time. I cried, obviously. And I remembered blood flowing onto my face. My grandparents freaked out and my Yeh Yeh drove me to the nearest clinic.
I had a few stitches and a painful lesson. And I hated the sight of blood ever since then. But as I grew older, the phobia somehow left. I am alright now. But that was probably the most painful earliest memory I ever have. I was a good kid and a very adorable one too. Like totally..

Somewhere you'd like to move or visit
Seriously, I wouldn't want to move out of Malaysia. I already move to KL from Ipoh but not loving so much of the current location of mine. I would love to move to PJ area once I am done with my degree in May. Am looking around for a place to rent.
Back to the challenge, I would like to visit every single country in the world but for preferences, I want to visit the United States. There are 50 states in the States and I can visit different state every week. Isn't that cool?? And there is four seasons in the States in some states. I could experience summer, spring, autumn and winter. I did experience winter before when I was in Korea but I would want to go again when I have the chance to do so.
But then again, for now, I just want to go to Bangkok and Phuket for a short getaway and shopping! And Langkawi too. I never been there and every single person I knew have been there. And it is so near to me. Damn.. and being the Ipoh girl, I only been to Pangkor once and that was when I was like 22. I know.. absurd eh? Oh well.. I would want to travel around the world with my loved one someday. Hints 20 cents!
Am gonna wait for the time to pay for my own trip.. soon! I just realized that I am a city girl all the way!

Had my very first class for the semester today. Class was interesting and fun. Watched this video/movie shown by my lecturer about how the Native Americans had their cultures assimilated from them by the Americans. I nearly tear a bit because the children in the show was fed with soap everytime they use their mother tongue. And had their hair cut short and forced into wearing clothes they dislike. How awful! I think I will enjoy this class a lot. I love cultural stuffs!
After class, went yumcha with Cheng Sim followed by lunch with my macha and Yi Wern. It was good catching up with everyone. Then, I walked home really, really fast today after I did a little grocery shopping. My friend who started her internship yesterday was somehow chased and stalked by a snatch theft near Taman Jaya LRT station. She was walking towards Dataran PJ and suddenly she saw this chubby dude wearing grey on a motorbike following her. She ran and her bike followed her. She got really scared and walked fast into a shop. That snatch theft was waiting for her. Oh gosh.. when the guy left, she ran fast back to LRT station and went home. Such scary experience.. it's not pleasant to know that even in a place with aplenty of people, you are not safe :(
I talked to the house owner when I was back home. She was telling me how she kicked out the ex-housemates of mine. I was so happy and grateful that they finally moved out. My landlady was saying how they stole her rice and cups. And they never clean their room and the bathroom that I was forced to share with them. And I had to clean after their mess. It was mad disgusting because they are just gross. Don't get me started what they did. Oh the horror... and they stole my TEFAL pan that was given to me by 20 cents' Mom because she knew I cook and I have limited cooking equipments. I was thinking of packing the pan back to Ipoh to give it to my Mom but it went missing. I asked my landlady if she saw it. She didn't. I thought I left it in the previous house I rented; went and asked. There wasn't anything there. Who would have taken it if it's not them???!! I am seriously damn pissed off lo.. and they fought with the landlady in the coffee shop. Gosh! It doesn't matter to me if I lost a pan but it was a gift from 20 cents' Mom. Seriously.. I kept on thinking about it during my semester break. It broke my heart that my gift is stolen. It's bad enough to share the same floor with such ignorant, rude people but them taking my things without my permission.. And they have the courage and guts to steal things from a poor student like myself. I am living on a budget! Sigh.. Oh well, I am not going to do anything about it. I believe that such people are not worth my time to even talk to. I am way too classy to be talking to these people who STOLE my TEFAL pan.
My pan is the exact same one like this - GONE :(
I just received a text message from DiGi about the extra 6% Govt tax that will be included into my phone bills from February onwards. And this only applied to the postpaid users as mentioned in the Bajet 2011. Seriously, I was horrified. I thought I could save a little since my parents increase my allowance a little. I have so much to pay; Internet, phone bills, rent, food and groceries and that extra 6%. Come to think of it.. I don't know if I should laugh or cry that I am graduating soon and will be working soon. With the current economy situation, it's not doing any justice to me. I am going to stay positive and hoping very, very hard to get a well-paying job to ensure that I will manage to save too. After all, it's the Year of Unusual Explosive Overflows. He has plans for me and He will prosper those plans for me. I shall just follow the plans He gave me.
And please, please STOP asking me when I am getting marry because I am not! Not so soon. It annoys the heck outta me everytime people ask me that question. If I do get marry, I will let the whole wide world know. Stop asking already! And it's not cheap to get marry so when I am rich enough, I will get marry. Don't ask when. I am getting a little agitated when people ask me that question again and again.
On a happy note, I love these pictures taken by 20 cents during his short trip to Ipoh. Don't they look good??
Nga Choi Kai!
Ice Mixed Fruit
Tai Shu Keuk
I am gonna hit the shower and do some laundry then nap!
Put your IPod on shuffle and write 10 songs that pop up
I don't own an IPod so I used my MP3 instead. I love MP3 a lot because it has been with me since my 21st birthday till today. So far, I only change the earphones because I kept on spoiling the wires. I know.. I am such a rough user. And MP3 was given to me by Dumb Dumb. Haven't heard from him for some time; the bugger must be very busy with his workload. Oh well.. this is the list of 10 songs from my MP3. I personally love songs that are nice to my ears; so Metal Rock can say goodbye to my MP3.
1. Closer - Travis
2. Heaven - Bryan Addams
3. Hot and Cold - Katy Perry
4. Broken Strings - James Morrison ft Nelly Furtado
5. Put Your Records On - Corrine Bailey Rae
6. New Soul - Yael Naim
7. I Run To You - Lady Antebellum
8. Tender Heart - Lionel Richie
9. Live By Night - Daniel Merriweather
10. A Song For Mama - Charice
Personally I love the first song a lot because it's sooooooooo nice! And Lionel Richie's Tender Heart too! My Dad is a fan of his too. I'm gonna continue with songs while updating this blog of mine. I got so much to tell!

Discuss your first love and first kiss
To me, 20 cents is my first love and will always be. And he is my first kiss too. I didn't like to think about the past because no point thinking about it so my present and future will be 20 cents. And I am not going to discuss the first kiss part because it's not necessary. It's mine to keep and it's yours to NEVER find out.
I think I probably won't even need to discuss about 20 cents. He is in like most of my blog posts. If you don't follow my blog, perhaps you could browse back because I am quite lazy to talk about my first love. It's great and will be greater so woot woot as said by Sheldon Cooper!
Other irrelevant items to say
Got my results today and some was alright and some was disappointing. It's disappointing when I worked so hard last semester and all my hardwork is somehow the opposite of what are my expectations would be. Oh well.. I was rather upset about it but after talking to some friends and 20 cents, I guess it's not so bad. At least, my CGPA is rather high and it meets the requirements to apply jobs for MNCs. I guess I won't have to worry much. I should work hard for this last semester of mine instead.
What else happen today? Went karaoke with Wai Keng and Siew Pheng to celebrate Siew Pheng's birthday; hung out and chilled. Release some stress and sang some old school songs. Pretty much a lot of fun. Wish I could join them for dinner though but oh well.. there's always next time.
I had a very, very awkward incident today. I was walking out to college today. Halfway walking, a car stopped next to me and asked me if I need a ride. That was my neighbor that I NEVER talk to nor acknowledge their existence. I know.. I am so what turf but I rejected the offer because it was like damn weird to offer a ride from someone I never talk to. Oh well.. I am only staying here till May.
Class starts tomorrow. Am looking forward to it :)

How you hope your future will be like
Obviously, everyone wants a great, bright and successful future. And I, of course want the same one as well. But who knows what might happen to my future.. I can't predict it. I could only walk the way He plans for me and prospers for me.
I would hope to secure a well paying career that I like and love. And then, get a car and a house with my hard earned money. What else? Do some investment to generate more income. If possible, I do hope to get a job where I can travel everywhere. I can save on traveling cost. Haha..
Once I am satisfied and have the enough money, I would get marry; I think. A wedding ain't cheap so better save enough money before I get marry. Then, live happily ever after with my future husband. Have a child or two.
I think I just want the same thing as most people would want. I do want to take my Masters once I have the time to do so. There's a prophecy from my pastor that there will be billionaires in church. Perhaps it's me?
I seriously never thought how I want my future to be. I am going to take the path that was set for me by Him. It's much better and comforting to follow the plans He gave me. So yea.. I don't know how's my future like and how I hope to. Sometimes, the more one person think of their future, the more vague and discomforting it is. I'll take whatever that comes :)

A moment you felt the most satisfied in your life
This is a tough challenge. I think I have not reach the phase of life or even the part of life that satisfaction is the word to describe me and my life. My satisfaction in life so far probably would be to be myself. I am always told stories and tales of how things and myself should be hence being me was the challenge of all. Most people hated to be themselves because they want to be loved by many; I guess.
The most satisfied moment in my life.. I would say.. the moment I accepted Christ as my Savior. With Him, I could do everything and anything that is impossible. And best of all, He loves me for who I am and He never judge me. People can be very judgmental though most people live in denial and kept on saying that they are not. The truth is they are judgmental and the imperfect me is one too. At least I am not denying. As for Him, He loves me for who I am. What's there not to be satisfied to have a relationship with Him?
As for other parts of my life, I'll get back with that soon, I hope.

I had another breakdown yesterday. Am totally alright now besides the fact that it wasn't pleasant not to get enough sleep. I have been sleeping late everyday and waking up late everyday. I will be starting my final semester next week and it will end in four months or so. I remembered counting down 10 months ago and I am down with another four. Woot woot! I can't wait to finish this off! And conquer the working world..
Have been worrying about my future and the outcomes after four months. Talked to some friends who gave me motivation and encouragement at wee hours. I love you guys damn a lot! Got a lecture from 20 cents and he asked me to stop worrying. I am still young after all and I shall take my time to venture into a career that I will like and love. And thanks to Nini; I got a manna. It's Jeremiah 29:11. God has plans for me and He will prosper for me. I shall wait then :)
Back to today's challenge..
My zodiac signs and and if I think it fits my personality
I am someone who doesn't believe in all these zodiac stuffs. How can a sign decides who I supposed to be right? I am moulded into who I am today because of other reasons and definitely not my zodiacs. But I'll do it anyway for the sake of fun. I am confused if I should write about my Chinese zodiac or the Greek one. I shall do two then. I was born in the Year of Rabbit. So, go figure with my age; pretty obvious lo. I am 24 and 2011 is the Year of Rabbit. As for the Greek one, I am a roaring Leo. I was born on the last day of Leo where the don't-know-what Sun rules over God-knows-what planet hence I am a Leo.
Let's start with the cute one, shall we? Rabbit is like the cutest, furry animal ever. They hopped and jumped around like nobody's business. According to this website, I am Fire Rabbit; never knew I am such a fiery person. It said that Fire Rabbit has the tendency to throw tantrums. I have to agree on that but as I grew older, the tantrums get a little boring and I only do it when I am really, really angry or annoyed. It said in the website that I am someone who likes to seek for adventures. Not entirely right because I always have the urge to try out new things but I usually forget about it and move on with my life. And probably will chicken out too. And I usually prefer to avoid conflict; well.. it's not true. I usually resolve the conflict unless it's not meant to be solved. Oh well..
What else? I am creative, compassionate and sensitive. My level of creativity is alright lah.. as for compassion and sensitivity, isn't that in everyone unless you are brutal serial killer or something; I think. It said I am conservative and avoid taking risks. Hello?? I am the opposite of that. So untrue lo this website.. it's stated here that I am classy, sophisticated, well-mannered and stylish. I do want to think myself as one. I am brought up to be well-mannered but the other parts, I am unsure. There's so much about the personality and most of it doesn't match at well. I guess I was born in the wrong year eh? But I love being a Rabbit.
As for Leo, this website said I am dominant, creative and am born a leader as well as being uncomplicated. I am not so of being dominant unless someone pissed me off and I decided to be one to piss that person back. Yea la.. I am very creative la. Leader eh? I think of myself as one because I am so bossy like what turf. The only reason I like to lead is to ensure things go organized and well-planned so that if shit happens, there is always Plan B. I am uncomplicated. If I don't like it means I don't like it. I won't go all out to please someone because I am not pretentious like duh.
And the positive sides of me said I am a generous, warm hearted, faithful and a loving person. Awww.. I think so too. I am unsure if people sees me as one but I am very, very faithful and I even love the song, Faithful by Arnel. And I happened to like children, drama, lavish living and speculative ventures. What's speculative ventures??? I do love children but drama, nahhh.. Lavish living? Who doesn't?? And it said I dislike routine stuffs and small minded people. This one quite true; I don't like to be stuck doing the same thing again and again. And small minded people pissed me off.
This zodiac thingy is so not me. It totally didn't manage to get my personality. Fail.com

30 Interesting Facts about ME
Another day, another post. I got so many ideas flowing inside my head for some contests. I wanna win something, you see. I have all sorts of ideas but most were dumped into the back of my head because I didn't have the time to do it. Oh well..
Today's challenge is rather hard. I know I am interesting because my blog name explains itself. But to come out with 30 facts about me; that's a challenge. Let's start, shall we?
1. I don't like soupy desserts like red bean soup, black sesame soup and whatever that is cooked sweetly like soup except for barley and ginkgo.
2. I am driven to success. People always assume I am this and that which sort of pissed me off and I wanted to show them, the world that I am someone. I am not only doing this for myself but to prove to other people that their assumptions are wrong.
3. I got a crazy obsession towards hairbands and headbands.
4. I love children like a lot. And that is why I am serving in Sunday School. :)
5. I hate durians a lot. But I had durian ice cream yesterday. I know.. it's so contradicting.
6. If I don't like someone, I mean it. I don't go all fake nice to you though I bloody dislike you. Don't like means don't like. No need to give face.
7. I cannot live without my laptop and Internet. I could die without checking my email everyday.
8. As a girl, I have no clue about make ups. Like no clue at all. So if you ask me what is what, I cannot help you.
9. I love writing. I might not be great but I just love it. Writing is the only way I could express myself but lately, it has been a mundane because of me being uninspired.
10. I don't like the idea of adding my family members in my Facebook account but I ain't got a choice. And I don't like how they have to comment about every single thing. Leave me alone already!
11. I still can't drive despite that I have a valid license since I was 18. I am going to learn soon.. like real soon.
12. I love karaoke. And singing like a lot!
13. I got this crazy thing about having long, straight hair. I don't like the idea of short hair because I can't pull it off.
14. I love reading. When I read, nobody shall disturb me.
15. I love to daydream and secretly wish that these dreams will come true. I know lah.. it won't unless I do something about it.
16. I secretly wish I was a little different. Perhaps a Heidi Klum body, the intellect of Einstein and the wealth like Warren Buffet.
17. I am only organized with work-related stuffs but for my own room and all, I am messy like hell.
18. I love steamboat and barbecue. I really, really love it though I can't stuff myself to that maximum.
19. Always hope to earn bloody a lot of cash to finally provide for my family and myself.
20. Damn bloody dislike people who made fun of my name or make a joke out of my name. If I do so to yours, you get angry. Right or not?
21. I have a hate love relationship of the being the eldest in the family.
22. 22 is my favorite number because I was born on the 22nd.
23. I have a baby sister who has Down Syndrome. I get all worked out if people talk untrue stuffs about them and other kids who have problems like my sister. They are bloody smarter than you idiots who have bloody low IQs.
24. I am from Ipoh and I am damn proud of being an Ipoh-ian and whatever that is related to Ipoh except for the bad things, of course.
25. Dislike talking to people who asked me for advices and kept on rejecting whatever I said. If you expect me to help you but you reject my offer, then don't talk to me. Damn waste time lo.. like seriously, what were you thinking??!! And it pissed me off when I haven't even finish a sentence and you said my advice is wrong. Go see a shrink if you are so problematic!
26. I don't eat yellow color noodles. I seriously dislike it. A lot.
27. Always wanted to lose weights but always fail. I shall try again. I really should.
28. I don't like to watch horror and gory movies. It's sick! Why would people make such movies??
29. I love going to church on Sundays. I always feel happy going church on Sundays.
30. I highly think I am very, very interesting.
Still think I am interesting? I bet not..

I remember my grandmother told me that she used to watch The Green Hornet where Bruce Lee played Kato on the black and white idiot box that we used to own in the old house. The TV was obviously outdated and gone but the legend of The Green Hornet still plays in my head. The Green Hornet was the dude who fought crime with his green gun and Black Beauty; his awesomely cool car with his sidekick, Kato who bloody used a nunchucks to haiyah here and there.
The Green Hornet (1960)
They revived this tv series into a movie now. Jay Chou plays Kato now. Personally, not a huge fan of Jay Chou but I do hope he plays Kato well. And Britt Reid was played by Van Williams back then. So let's pray hard hard that Seth Rogen does a better job. I heard Cameron Diaz would be in the movie. She is my favorite actress!
The Green Hornet (2011)
Anyway, IF I were the Green Hornet, I am going to kick some bad asses. I would ask Kato to loan me his nunchucks and kick some "nuts" too. Sorry for the French but hello.. I am the Green Hornet in this story! And my nunchucks would be the more techy type with bullets from the two sides and electric jolts in the chain side to fight the bad guys. And the Green Hornet; in this case me, I would make a green color suit that saves me from any bad bullets to ensure myself alive so I can save the world, of course.
The Green Hornet (not to be released)
Nunchuks for the cool people like me
Since I am the Green Hornet, I'll breed some REAL hornets to be my assistants to fight the bad guys. These hornets' sting can definitely numb the bad guys from moving or running away. Besides Kato, I totally have awesome sidekicks that could help me fight crime. And these hornets would only listen to my instruction so bad guys could kiss their asses goodbye with these sidekicks of mine.
That is how I am going to save the world!
If you want to be The Green Hornet and save the world like me, head over to Nuffnang page for the opportunity!
A time when you thought of ending your life
I am currently in my fifth day of the challenge. I am keeping it up quite well though it's all wordy. Was stuffed to maximum during dinner. Had steamboat with the family in town. I love steamboat! And barbecues too!
Back to the topic! Ending my own life eh? I did have a thought of it because I wonder why some people do it. Doesn't it hurt like a lot to purposely end your own life? When I was rebel, I might thought of it because I always assume nobody loves me. But as I grew older, I have different perceptions of this issue.
Life is precious. It is very, very precious. For me, I strongly believe that taking your own life is not a solution to problems; it is never a solution. Every problem has its solution. It takes a gutsy and brave person to face up and solve the problem. Everytime I am bounded with problems, I'll try to keep my head clear and find a solution. Of course, some problems are better left unsolved because those are not even problems to begin with. I usually threw away all the unsolved problems into the sea because I damn well knew I can't solve it. And even if I do manage to solve it, things are definitely not the same. Oh well..
Besides, I am not that gutsy to end my own life. It's too painful. So I have never had such thoughts as I grew up. No point wasting my life away when I could just live life to the fullest. I have so many things that I wanted to do in my life. Like completing my degree, for instance and of course, getting a job then a house of my own. And getting marry to someone special and have my own family. So much to do in my life. Why waste it when I can make use of it?
It's late now. I am gonna hit the sack. Long day tomorrow..

My views on religion
This is the fourth day of the challenge and I am keeping up. I never feel so diligent before in writing and blogging. It doesn't give the brain a little squeeze and twist to think about the proper things to write about. Not an easy task, I must say. I am gonna write the most controversial and sensitive issue ever today.
I was born into a family of Buddhism/Taoism. So I just followed whatever my family did. I went to the temple on certain days. And all the necessary things that should be done, I just follow. As I grew older, I sort of knew what's going on. I totally didn't believe in anything. I wasn't an atheist because I do believe in the existence of God; I think.
Things changed once I met 20 cents. He brought me to church once and I hated him to the max for doing so. The stubborn me who was once a free thinker totally assume that he was trying to convert me. I respected him for his religion so I followed him to church every weekend. It was one incident that changed me. It's probably a minor thing for many but it's a huge thing for me because that is when I was saved by Christ. I was walking to college nervously for my Accounting exam. You see.. I suck at numbers and I failed Accounting before. That sums up my "strength" in numbers. 20 cents asked me to pray; I did for the sake of doing it. And I went to the exam hall. Did whatever necessary in an hour or so and came out feeling nothing. Went back home and I didn't even remember what I did. Like someone just did my exam for me..
Then, I went to church that weekend. And I was crying during worship. And that was how I was saved. And I am now a Christian. I was baptized last Easter and I have a great relationship with Him. And I love being in church on weekends. It is always joyful and fun to listen to great messages and serve in Sunday School. And learn more about Him. I have to thank 20 cents for not giving up on me.
As for my views, religions teach people good things. Whatever religion in this world teach their people good things. I mean.. which religion tells you that lying is a good thing. None! Unless it's cult, they probably teach other things. I don't know. It doesn't matter what religion a person is because what matters is that person itself. I had a few situations where people offended me about my belief. I kept quiet because the more I wanted to argue back and fight back; it shows that I am just like them. I wouldn't want to degrade myself into such a level. Right or not? In fact, I should say thank you and pray the best for them. I do wish I could do more of these because my emotions are controlling me lately. I should conquer it by seeking Him when I am in trouble.
So that sums up my views on religion. I better not say much because..ok la.. I got nothing much to say hence such a short post. I felt challenged by such topic lo.

My views on drugs and alcohol
Drugs eh? A pretty intellectual sort of topic to be discussed. What a challenge! I myself do consume drugs. I consume pharmaceutical drugs when I am sick. That doesn't make me a druggie, of course. But a large amount of those definitely will harm one from many aspects like psychological and physical. I actually knew this dude where we used to work together. An ex-colleague of mine told me that this dude consumed ecstasy pills everytime he goes clubbing because the feeling seems to be better. I seriously have no clue what it means but it definitely do a lot of harm onto this dude. I remembered I was asking this dude something. Not only he forgot what I ask the next second, he paused a lot too. I learned that these pills sort of damage his brain hence the slowness.
I knew some people who experiment with drugs; all sorts to be exact. Personally, I think these people are bloody stupid. They damn well knew that it is dangerous and harmful yet they still want to do it. It doesn't make them any cooler by consuming these sort of drugs; like seriously. I am grateful that I have enough senses to not hang out with these sort of people. I was taught about the danger of drugs since I was young and of course, education in school counts too. What were these people thinking when they are consuming drugs?? I could write a bloody long post about the harms and stupidity of these people but who am I to judge.. perhaps they have their own reasons of such wrongdoings. But whatever reasons it is, I highly think it is a lame excuse.
As for alcohol, I guess it's not wrong to consume it as long as one controls the intake. I do consume it as myself on festive seasons like Chinese New Year or a friend's birthday. I can't really take alcohol but in a small amount, it's totally alright. I don't see the reason of making myself pissed drunk because the heavy headed feeling was not fun at all. All your organs decided to get all heated up and your head spins like mad. Not fun.. I guess it's totally alright if one controls the amount of alcohol. And of course, drink responsibly. I don't like the idea of some people thinking that they could hold their drinks and kept saying they are alright when they are not.. and worst of all, drive when they are drunk. What the hell were they thinking?!! It's damn dangerous..
I believe whatever consumed in a large amount will harm one person.
As for now, I solely think education plays an important role to educate young kids about drugs and alcohol. Seriously, it's not cool at all. It's how smoking is too. It's NOT COOL at all!

Where you'd like to be in 10 years
In 10 years, I would be 34. Let's hope that the world doesn't end next year or there would be nothing for me in 10 years time.
Obviously, I want to see myself as a success in the career path I chose. I would want to be the leader of a top notch organization that I might be in. I was thinking.. a prestige magazine perhaps? By having a great career like this, this shows that I will be earning enough bucks; hoping big bucks to provide for my family. I don't just want to provide enough for them. I want to be able to provide comfortable and luxurious life for my family especially my parents and baby sister. My parents have been providing for me long enough hence it would be ideal for me to be able to send them for holidays and buy whatever they needed or even desire.
Since I am in my 30s, it would be advisable for me to be married with at least two children perhaps. I do want more children if I could afford. Having a family probably would be the best thing ever. The bigger, the better; of course. My family is small hence whatever joyous occasion we have are always small. I like merry and noisy dinners like 20 cents' family. So, yea.. if I could have more children; I want more kids! And I still want to be a hot mamma.
And of course, I would want to have my own property and car. And actually driving around myself than to rely other people to fetch me around. Come to think of it.. it should be realized this year. I need to drive to work like in May or June this year. I should really go for a refresher course after Chinese New Year. I always wanted to have a cosy house with a garden so I could have parties and plant stuffs in my garden. And a fully equipped kitchen to satisfy my desire to cook for my family. I always love cooking. And it would be great to cook for my loved ones :)
What else? I think I just want to see myself as a successful person with a great family and all. I think most people would want similar positions like myself in 10 years or so. Of course, God is always number one in my life. With Him, I would definitely have my desires fulfill with aplenty of blessings to go with it.
What about you? What do you want for yourself in 10 years?
And so far, I have been diligently blogging for the 30 Days Challenge. :)
Saturday, January 1, 2011
I was browsing through some blogs and I stumbled upon my junior's blog, Stella. She is a year younger than me when I was in school. I never really talk to her before. I don't think I have talk to her before but oh well, she posted something that caught my attention and I am gonna do it because I think I am rather free at the moment. And I only have two days of classes next semester. It's my last semester so I am as free as a bird, I think.
Anyway, Day 01 challenge is "Your current relationship; if single, discuss how single life is".
Well well.. not exactly a hard challenge for myself. As how the whole wide world knows; mostly family and friends and friends of Facebook. I have a boyfriend. And most of you who reads my blog, his name is 20 cents. I am attached to him for the past two years plus. And of course, I am single still because I am not married yet. Single what? Right??
How's single life eh? Well, I don't have commitments like paying house loans, insurances etc yet but I will once I started working, I guess. I have no clue what the heck I just said but yea.. I am attached but I am not married so I guess I am single. Life is awesome minus the downs of our relationship, of course. And we are the most boring couple ever. I always have the craziest ideas to spend our times together but most are failed. My ideas are way too bizarre for 20 cents to accept, I think.
Anyway, being in a relationship needs aplenty of commitment and trust, and of course tolerance too. But I think I lack of tolerance but I am trying really hard to be tolerate. Oh well.. it takes a lot of time for an angry person like me to chill and calm down. It's great to know that 20 cents is a great patient boyfriend. He also ensure that I calm down of whatever that makes me angry. I totally think I have a great, healthy relationship so yea.. I guess I have a pretty cool relationship status.
I just need to gain more patience for myself. Like a lot. I need a serious anger management class before I explode into pieces. 20 cents love, I am sorry for all the crazy anger of mine.
I love you still, like a lot :)
P/S: I am unsure if I actually answer that question. Hahaha..
