i am happy

I feel so happy today...Nothing really special...Just an ordinary day...My tyre puncture with no spare tyre...Dinner at Uncle's house...Rushing my sop...

Anyway I am just happy..without any reason...

valentine day

Today is Valentine's Day. A day for lovers....Is it a big deal if you are single or your lover can't make it for you?

As usual Uncle is busy with his stuff. Although I feel a bit lonely but no big deal.

Let make it this way. I love myself. So why can't I celebrate it alone? What could be better than doing something I like? This hectic semester left no time for me to watch drama. At last today I finished the 82 episods drama, The Gem of Life. wahaha...so happy. I like Jessice so much. Sometimes what she does is not right but I can understand why she does it. Perhaps we are the same kind of person.

Did I mention I had a suprise today? Unexpected.

Which Part Of Chinese New Year You Miss The MOST?

As what Justin post in his blog, there are plenty of stuffs we miss in Chinese New Year.

Here are the things he listed out:hometown delicacies
angpau aka red packets
firecrackers

I had shortlisted some other stuffs which happens only during Chinese New Year.mandarin
福
lion dance

yee sang

For me, there is one thing I miss the most: cappuccino cookies.

It is a routine whereby my dad will bring us to visit his ex-boss during cny. This is how we fall in love with this yummilicious cookies. The ex-boss wife is kind enough to order it purposely for us each year. My entire family love it so much.

However the one she bought for us this year is not the one we like.

Disappointed... I miss it so much...

new sem

5th Jan 2009, the beginning of my new semester. I thought it will a simple meeting with academic advisor and followed up by bakery class with Mr Fami (i wish someone else).

My wish was fulfilled as Mr Mike Flemming form Cereal Tech Pte Ltd, Singapore was here to teach us bakery. I had heard about him since my first semester. Hehe...so excited.

Least the I realise it was like an intensive class for a week and we will be examined on sat. Omg... It reminded me of PMR, SPM and even STPM. The week before examination will only be seminars, seminars and seminars. Terrible time. Haha...

So for the whole week we were dealing with bread, bread and bread. I'm not a fan of bread but I was forced to tuck those carb into my stomach everyday. Luckily the last two classes was on croissant, danish and short pastry. The croissants and quiche really gave me a kick to my taste palette. Yummilicious.... I am craving for more croissants.

This semester is a really a mess. I am having 7 subjects in a short sem, which mean I will be having two classes of each subject in a week. For me it is too hectic as I was spoilt by last sem, 3 subjects for a long sem. In another words, I don't have time to work. This equal to no money to sing k, shopping ......... and where I find money for my petrol?

Did I mention I drive to college? Yup. I start to drive to KDU. It is scary because I am not skillful enough and I am driving alone, without Uncle Chow.

ps. I am praying hard for no accident as I no longer work. Lets not forget to pray for more angpau (money, not the envelope). I need to pay petrol ma...

i miss u...

Tomorrow I am waiting for is finally arrived. I had been waiting desperately for 5th January 2009 to arrive. This is the day for schools to reopen. So I can have some peace in this house.

Sadly I forgotten that my class commence at the same time and Uncle Chow is returning to UPM too... (T.T)

Finally he went back to UPM and I feel so sad to depart with him. You might think I am too much. UPM is just at Serdang. Couple of miles from KL. I can easily reach there by KTM or perhaps drive there? But what matters to me now is not distance.

Love grows out of chance...

Meeting a mere glance and then a smile...

Touches the heart in many ways!

Isn't it incredible how we have been?

From being perfect strangers,

To whom we're today,

Perfect couple in complete harmony,

With each other's thoughts, dreams and plans...

Your love isn't a big thing,

It is a million little things,

You gave me reason...

to smile,

to dream,

to be happy,

You really mean a lot to me...

It must be telepathy...

For whenever...

I'm down and blue...

You bring on the sun,

And lift my spirits,

A shoulder to lean on,

An all-weather shelter,

Anytime, day or night...

May Year 2009 Brings Me Lots Of Luck & Happiness....

Year 2008 had finally ended. The year started out pretty hard while my last few months were filled with exciting days of both work and personal. Over the holiday season last December I had great time with Uncle Chow. In fact I am in such a good mood to start 2009 with a fresh list of new year resolutions! Here goes...

#1 Balance out my time. Must make a bigger fraction of time for my grandma and god family. Had been giving lesser attention to them last year. Lets not to forget my friends too.

#2 Eat healthier. Used to limit my carb intake and replace it with higher intake of protein. I hardly notice I had tucked in more saturated fats in my body. Perhaps more veggies and fruits??

#3 Fight the bulge. Had been crawling under my mattress for weeks. It's time to expose to more sunlight. Hopefully by work out more I can reduce few inches from my butt.

#4 Learn mandarin. Said that million of times. Maybe 2009 bring me determination.

#5 Be a better driver. No accident please.

#6 Polish my pastry skills. "Leslie wait for me!!" Haha...

.

#XX Make him sayang me more. wahaha.... And build better relationship with his family.

2009, here I come....

08 things for the last month of 2008

#1 Work at pastry kitchen. Although it is only for 2 days indeed I learnt something. And I didn't feel gan cheong anymore when I face Leslie. wahaha....

#2 Celebrate Christmas. Actually I wasn't celebrating this year. I didn't go to church as which I agreed to go with Win Ann. I just prepare some fruit cake and gingerbread for family and friends. Hope they enjoy it.

#3 Dinner with Uncle Chow and family. Once at his house and once at a korean bbq restaurant. Although it wasn't my first time to dine with them but I still... Perhaps I am too shy. *grin* Nobody seems to believe this statement.
#4 Wash my car. I never wash car for my whole life.

#5 Drive alone. Credits go to Win Ann as she needs to borrow my car. I was forced to drive to her house. Anyhow I get my courage to drive alone already. Credits also got to Uncle Chow for his accompaniment. Pity him to train me and get scold by me. ;P

#6 Shopping for chinese new year. I kinda lost the shopaholic part of me recently. I guess it is coming back to me bit by bit. I still need to collect some stuff for chinese new year.

#7 Get a pair of new spec.

#8 Finally I got my hair cut. A brand new year with a new hairstyle.

相处好，同住难'

There is a saying '相处好，同住难'. For me it is very very true.

She had spent almost half of her life and I had spent my whole life, 21 years precisely to communicate with one another in order to live in peace. However it wasn't helping at all. We never like each other. We are just like land mine. You are safe if you mind your own business but you better be careful once you try to meddle with others' business.

Unexpectedly our relationship suddenly became better since I plan to move into hostel last year. We started to talk and care for one another. This condition did not last long. I moved back few months ago as my class was not as hectic as before.

One morning she woke me in order for me to practise driving. I refused to wake as I was too tired from working the day before. I did raise my voice because I hate to do thing last minute. I didn't expect she teaches me as she hardly volunteer to teach me and she did not tell me beforehand.

When I woke, I apologised to her and ask for her forgiveness. She shouted at me and said that she wouldn't teach me anymore. I thought she might need some time to cool down but since that we never talk again.

She never like me since I was still a child. She always talked bad about me in front of everyone, including my siblings. Hence I hardly get any respect from my siblings even though I am the eldest. Can you imagine how I feel when your sister call you 'hai yan'?

There is a saying which I quite agree. It said that she felt my dad pour more attention and love into me compare to her. Imagine I am their first baby. Of course my dad will very sayang me. Anyway treat me bad or I should say not-so-good can't make my dad love you more k?

How I wish I have a better mum... I really jealous when my friends mention about their mum. They can chat about everything. Looking at myself. I feel like an ostrich in this house. I used to fight back. Nowadays I will only keep myself away because I don't want my dad to stuck in the middle.

At the end I can only spilt everything over him. He advised plenty of times to back off and take the first move. But I have my ego. I can't let go my pride as I did apologised.
