Rojak!

so many unsignificant things to say... but i'll say them anyway :P

PETALING STREET (P.S.)
On Sunday, went down to KL after service cause had to buy bus tickets to Ipoh for my uncle's wedding (uncle may sound a lil old... he's only in his late 20's or early 30's) It's been a while since i last attended a wedding dinner... but anyways... after buying the tickets, dad asked "so where to go for lunch ar??" (we could see Times Square from the bus station) So since they visited that place WITHOUT me... i kept on pointing towards the building. But guess wat??? my dad ignored me :'( and... my always so brilliant mom suggested we go PETALING STREET!!! (of all the places!!!)

But when we reached P.S, i was like... "WHOA!" So many things to see... pirated stuff everywhere!!! Watches, shoes, bags, accessories... even fruits!!! There were lots of tidbits too! (all the sweet stuffs la) My all time favourite... MUA CHI!!! (they sold them in tiny boxes, two per box. It was RM 1.20 per box. Mommy bought the last box. Yipee!!) Then, i was stumbled when i saw... LEVI's jeans for RM 34.90!!! "The power of the decimal point--> [.] (which happens to be my trademark. Boy am i important!! :P)" In case some of you are as naive as i was... a pair of ORI Levi's jeans is at least RM 200. And the more fancy ones are about RM 349.00!! (That's like 10x different!!!) I can pengsan!!

Then i saw something funny. I think it was at the centre point of the street, at the crossroad. On one of the walls was a sign saying: "Dilarang Menjaja Barangan Cetak Rompak" (which means, pirated goods are not allowed to be sold) I was like... "HUH??" The whole street is filled with pirated goods! Sighz... But anyhow, i had a good time window shopping.

LIL' THOUGHTS OF A DOT
While waiting for my mom at the bus station (she went to get the tics alone cause she say i walk too slow :P) the DJ from lite & easy (i know this station to some of u aka Emily Wong is kinda old skul... but i like! Imagine yourself in a candle lite dinner with your guy... what sort of music will the restaurant play?? Don't Cha by Pusscat Dolls or Numb by Linkin Park?? Love me tender by Elvis will be a great song. Dont u think so?) Where was I?? Oh ya... the DJ said... SMILE! cause by smiling, endorphin a kind of hormone (if my Bio's still corecct :P) is created. And it's known to reduce pain and sickness cause by negative emotions such as headaches...
After P.S. i went home, bathed... and this came to my mind... And i would like to dedicate this to Sabrina ( i know u had a rough week so this one's for you. MUAX!) But it's nothing canggih la :D

Bubbling Smile (title courtesy of SABRINA)
Smile, smile, smile your tears AWAY,
Smile, for a smile could brighten someone's day;
Smile, smile, smile til your hurts are GONE,
Smile and wait for the coming of the dawn.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE TYRES?
Like i've said in my previous post, i had an accident. And my dad had to change the tyres. Actually i trashed 1 tyre only la (which i know is bad enuf :S) But cause of some balancing thingy, my dad had to change both lo... so like i mentioned, it's RM 230 in total... sighz..
So what happened to the 1 i trashed??
In a tyre, there are strings (it's the best word i could find... wire sounds very electrical, cable even worst... pipe's... just wrong. So we'll settle with STRINGS la :P) The strings are to prevent the tyre from "exploding" due to the heat caused by the friction of the tyre against the road (fuiyo!! like so good in my physics rite?? :P) And... the strings... SNAPPED due to the impact!! keng le?? By the time my dad drove the car to the workshop... a part of the tyre bloated up d... stress-nya... so he had no choice but to change the tyres lo...

That's all for now,
God bless & Hugs!

REMEMBER THIS DAY!!!

Is it my birthday?? (*hint* it's in Sept :P)
Then why remember today??? Well... Cause today's THE day i met my FIRST accident!!! SIGH...
Some of you might ask... How did it happen?? Didnt this girl fail her driving test?? Did she kill anyone?? Is it safe to be on the road now considering she might be just round the corner (eh! my driving not that bad la... i hope... :P)
READ ON FOR ANSWERS
Ever since that failure... the ever whacky dot still is whacky... but... when it came to driving and cars... the tot of it gave her the shivers. The sound of engine failures gave her the creeps and she no longer had the courage to drive. (wahahaha! so drama hoh??)

But yea.. i was kinda afraid of the test cause i'm afraid of engine failures (who isnt??) so... my very brave parents suggest that i practice for the test with my dad's car. Why didnt i do that earlier?? Answer: Cause my smart dad & bro said that the car's very heavy. But since i'll only be driving on straight roads... I attempted my dad's Mazda 626 (For those of you that wonder "what's that?"... it's a very old car)

The Drama begins...
SCENE 1
Dad drove to the factory area, stopped under the bridge. Then we changed seats. I drive, dad yells... dad continues yelling...

SCENE 2
Dad: Girl, keep left and when you reach the junction, turn left. (it's that kinda junction where it's has a divider. You can choose to stop or turn left)
So... I slow down and change gear lo... then...
Dad: Girl, must look right to see if got cars coming.
So... being obedient, i LOOK right lo... Then, being stupid, i kept on looking right did not break. And... guess what??? So clever... I drove straight to the divider!!! Dad's reflects quite fast, he managed to turn the steering wheel. But... the car was faster! So the side of the car crashed against the divider lo...

SCENE 3
Dad: What were you doing?? Didnt you see the divider??
Me: I'm sorry... so so sorry...
Dad: Stop at the side (gets down)
Me: (gets down too)
Dad: See what've you done!
Me: Kept quiet (cause i didnt really see any damages la :P)
Dad: (points to the driver seat) Get in.
Me: Oh!! i can still drive??
Dad: Of course.
The difference between Dad and JPJ... my daddy loves me!!!

SCENE 4
I continued driving... dad didnt yell d... maybe he was still in shock la :D but he did correct me on and off. Then bro called. So we changed seats again and dad drove to pick bro up.

Then... what happened next quite the predictable la... bro saw the dent... then dad told bro the story. Went home... told mom. Dad checked his car again... realised the tyre got CUT!!! There goes another shopping spree!! He went to the machanic... 2 tyres cost rm 230!!!

Parents asked me to postpone my driving test but the uncle say cant. If i insist on changing the date, must pay RM 60!!! (crazy rite??? these ppl earning easy money man!!!) As for now... CRASH COURSE!!! will go practice again tmr. Please pray for me!!!

Finally, there is HOPE!!!

wahahahaha! Finally i've found some hope in my "happening" college. SEGi got leng chai!!!
Good looking, speaks proper english and so far no sign of La La-ness!! wahahahahaha!!! oops! *blushing* :D

God bless n hugs! ;)

Kau Tahu Betapa Ku Sayang Pada Mu

Yesterday... (hehe.. i do realise my posts are 1 day behind time... sori ya... will update them asap) we had our Baba Nyonya video screening. It's for my LAN project (why do i even bother to put in so much effort for LAN?? That's cuz i literally have Nothing Better To Do in college and i think my friends & i agree that setting up a booth like other groups will be nothing but BORING... So we decided to spice things up)

I do wish i could upload the video ere... but my blogging skills... FAIL! Then i tot of uploading some pics we took... but Ms Melissa lazy to go upstairs to get her cam!! so... you all just read words la k? :P

The story (i wrote it :D) is entitled --It Took A Dream
It's about a spoilt girl named Samantha (Sam) from the 21st century that did not appreciate her Baba Nyonya heritage. The conflict began when she was told to wear her Baba Nyonya Birthday Suit on her 16th birthday by her parents. Being as rebelious as she is, she refused and ended up receiving a slap from her father.

Then the story continues as Sam cried herself to sleep. (Since the title of the video is "it took a dream", obviously... she dreamt la :P) In her dream, she travelled back in time to the year 1888. She saw the very last moments of another girl, Tong Tong.

T/T's last wish was to wear the Birthday Suit. But being poor, her mom couldn't afford. Instead of being upset, T/T in return comforted her mom by saying "once a Nyonya, always a Nyonya; with or without the Suit"

That convicted Sam and she woke up realizing how blest she was to get the opportunity to wear the Suit. She apologises to her parents... (the most touching scene, as she ran out of her room, the song Belaian Jiwa was played. Ah... so loves...) THE END!

*sorry ar if my grammar a bit the cacat-ed :D

Loads of credit is to be given to Ms Tan Yue Mei for making the video a success. I may have written it. But without her help shooting it and then editting it for one whole day, the video would have been a failure... so... Love ya girl!! Muax!

Altho the crowd that came to watch the video was kinda small, but all of them liked it :D (i have comment forms to prove that statement :P) Therefore, i consider it a success! ;)

p/s: my driving test is on the 8th Aug. Not the 2nd. I lazy to edit my previous post so write ere la :P

God bless & hugs!

Whose Fault Was It Anyway?

Now that it has happened, everything seems a blur. It happened so quickly that my Dory brains couldnt capture it. There i was... driving... trying to change lanes. 1st we signal, then, look at your side mirrors and the back one to make sure that the coast is clear. Then, accelerate and turn steering wheel to the lane you wanna cut into.

How wrong is that??

But sadly, according to the JPJ uncle, i was too near to the car behind. He insisted that the car was in my blindspot!! And he was like "Didnt you learn bout blindspots in your undang class??" "You should have looked at your rear mirror." (confession of a dot: i didnt look at the rear mirror cause... continue reading) i'm like... i know the blindspot thingy existed, but i'm NOT blind!!! I saw that car coming and i knew i could make it. So i follwed the procedures as mentioned above lo... And bear in mind, I was already on the correct lane when the JPJ uncle told me to stop and park by the roadside. If it was too near me /i was too near it... (considering that it was coming from the back...) whose fault was it??? Mine or the Volvo's (i gave a signal like long before i made that cut... that Volvo shouldnt have charged forward, NO ONE would have done that when they see a car with a "L" painted on it rite?? AND!!! If i was causing the Volvo danger, why didnt he/she honk???) or was it just the JPJ's excuse to fail me??

So... what's your verdict??

Sighz... now, i've gotta go thru the entire traumatic experience of driving some cacat-ed car!! And risk myself of another terrible headache ( i cried after the test not because i failed, but because of the headache which is caused by too much carbon monoxide and 2nd hand smoke) Why la??? i hate it when the engine dies. (another confession of a dot: my engine died TWICE in 3 mins!!! sighz.... that happened before the incident above)

My next test is next tueaday. Pls pray for me. Thanks!!

God bless & hugs!

Whoa!

Yawn* today i went to Doulos with my church. The QUEUE!!! Was SUPER LONG!!! We reach the port about 2.30... we had to wait til 4.30 to step into the ship!!! Keng le??? Thank God the weather was good. Oh ya... i had lots of eye candies while i waited to get on board :P It was kinda stuffy in the ship. I'm surprised i actually pulled through! After paying for my bible dictonary (it's a cool dictionary, got pics summo! i like :D) i had ice cream (someone told me it was nice... but i cant remember who. I tot it was emily. But she say she didnt eat the ice cream... so hmm...) it taste horrible. i ate the banana + vanilla. BIG mistake.

I stood for... let's count, 1... 2... 3...-4 hrs!!! It was madness!! So far i'm not feeling any pain, Praise the Lord!!! i'm a big girl d :D i'm kinda sleepy now. But got assignments to do!! sighs... Tomorrow's gonna be a long long day! First, work from 8.30-10 (usually it's till 1.30 but i have to do a movie shoot thingy for my project. Thank goodness i worked extra hours to cover 4 tmr) then from 10- dont know what time i'll be doing the movie shoot thingy. AIYO!!!

I shall go back to work now. Good nites people! God bless and hugs!

I Changed My Mind

Hmph! Actually i was thinking of giving those no good people that thinks us teens have no stress and cons us into working for them because we are given a scholarship (which we by the way deserve according to the terms and conditions written on the scholarship application form) a piece of my mind!

But... YOU NO GOOD PEOPLE should be thankful for my popo. I called her and we had a chat. She didnt say much about it. But she did remind me that all that happens to me right now is part of the bigger picture that God painted for me. Therefore... i'll not write a blog about YOU PEOPLE.

Since i'm in a good mood now... i'll talk about my POPO!! :D She's a very nice old lady. She was there to hold me when i could still fit into a sized 1 shoe!! She's been with me ever since then. Days, weeks, months and years passed. It never crossed my mind that she would leave me. She was there when i started walking... and she was also there when i cried (in fact... i'm tearing rite now... i cant see my keyboard!!) Then, reality struck when she told me last 2 years that she'll be going back to ipoh to be closer to her son. My memory on the day she left is kinda blur now. I cant even remember if i had the chance to say goodbye. Guess i was in school when she left. Oh how i brokedown whenever i looked at her bed at night and she was no longer there. And how i missed the times when i shoved my bolster to her face cause she was snoring and i couldnt sleep (yes... i admit i'm naughty and spoilt by her... what to do?? She loves me dearly ma :P)

As some of you might know, old people fall sick easily lo... so yea... she and my kong kong took turns to fall sick!!! Boy was i worried. Then being as imaginative as i am... i started imagining what if they left me eternally?? (it's just a term la... i know we will meet again in Heaven) oh ya.. i was also kinda afraid that what if they dont make it to Heaven??? so guess what?? i brokedown again!!! So emo hoh?? but i love them dearly too ma!!! And so whenever they fall sick, i'll say this prayer: "God, You know what i can take and what i cant... the death of my gparents is something i CANT take. Praise the Lord!! My gparents are alive and kicking. Well... they do have old people sickness. My popo just went for "katarak" (i dont know the english spelling and i lazy to go find out :P) operation and her eye got INFECTION!!! So... again... my wild imaginations kicked in. I thought she was gonna be blind... and have juice coming out of her eye!!! (yes... that's how imaginative i can be) Then only my aunt filled me in with the details... she say the doc said it's ok 1... the lens cracked cuz old ppl's eyes are usually dry... so as long as she goes to the hosp to get it redressed (if there is such a word) then she'll be fine. I was like why la now only tell me??? But i really thank God for being merciful towards my gparents. Love ya Lord!!!

I just realised... this is a LONG post.. kekeke! i can go on with about my gparents. But will stop ere la. Happy reading. And today i won a Walls pillow. it's heart shaped. quite cute. m hugging it now :D

God bless n Hugs!

Wheels Of Life

It's been a crazy day for me... guess any1 would realise by now that stress piles up as we grow. Until now... i still find it kinda hard to do things in an organized way. (like i've mentioned... i'm now my LEO clubs secretary... how ironic eh?) (made a few ppl upset summo... I'M SORRY!!!) was insensitive in a way. Guess it's time for the carefree dot to shun away n let more of the wise dot come out. (yes... just in case u didnt realise... a WISE dot existed :P)
Now my head is KILLLING ME!!! aihz... the one sad thing i inherited from my dad... MIGRANE!!! y la??? sighz... i should go nap now.
i'm sowee this post a bit the colourless. No mood d...

Bring out the PAIN KILLERS!!! :D

Bitter and Sweet

Let's start with the Bitter... how many of u like peaches?? I thought i did... liked their scent. Went to carrefour ytd... they sold peaches... so bought a box la... Contrary to it's sweet scent... it's BITTER!!! Not sweet at all. :( i got cheated... sighs...

aihz... nvm la... i still have a sweet part :D i finally got my very own.... brand new pillow!! (not that i'm ill treated by my parents... they love me ;) it's just that... when i was younger, i liked my moms pillow. It's like softer... (dunno why la :S) but then hoh... i realised... that pillow has been around for quite some time... ( i won't go into details la... use ur imaginations k! :P) so... i bugged my mom to get me a new 1 :D Now i can sleep soundly on my NEW pillow!! (as u can c... i'm quite easily pleased :D most of the time la :P)

so yea... that's about it. gotta ZZZ or i'll be zombified. aiyo!! it's been a week since the football craze ended. so much has happened. But no matter what, life goes on!! ;)
take care peeps! God bless and hugs!!

Into Your Hands

Yesterday was kinda dramatic for me. Nth special happened in class. Some uncle came and talked bout karate (i agree with yue mei, it was... BORING!!)

Then went for CF... but sadly... no meeting!! so went for LEO lo.. wah! the uncle that came to give the talk was kinda... sad... according to my friends, he was shivering!! -.-" (i was soO hungry by that time) then he said "we shall elect our board members" (but but but... I'm HUNGRY!!!) He took forever to write the names of the candidates. (can't blame him la... he doesn't know us ma..) So being as considerate as I am (actually to speed things up so i can MAKAN!! :P) i volunteered to write for him la. And guess what?? i was voted as the secretary (not so much as voted la... it was a yes-you-will-be-the-secretary situation >.<)

Then went for some test thingy to qualify myself as a board member which was set by the college. (pathetic eh?)

And the drama begins!! My coll frenz and i went for our subs selection for our nx sem. And we realized it's gonna be a stressful sem for us. Poor Yue and me (U & me :P) have to work summo!!! wah sei... so hoh.. the drama reached it's climax when i cried in my room cause i had no idea how was i gonna survive the sem. The feeling of being uncertain came again...

But as i recall on how i felt ytd... it was kind of silly hoh?? after cryin, i started praying. Y waste those tears?? Y should i be stressing over something that my Heavenly Father has FULL control of? So... into His hands i will commit my future for He knows what's best for me. And...

"I can do ALL things through Christ who strenghtens me! ;)"

*note to all readers of this blog: Feeling uncertain of your future?? Call upon the name of the Lord and be saved- His name is Jesus :)

God bless ya and Hugs*

soO sweeet!

Yesterday my gums were in pain... today still painful :( anyway... so i asked my mom if she could make any tong sui (for those that don't understand cantonese... it means sugar water :P i still love ya!! it's like herbal tea or dessert la... to reduce heatiness :D)

This morning, she made the sea coconut dessert :D my mom loves me!! my gums still hurt but aiya! they'll get better eventually. :)

Today i didnt have class or work. It's a happy day! Woke up arnd 10.30am then napped at 3pm!! (prayed b4 i napped. this week we'll be praying for our families- As for me and my house, we're gona serve the Lord!!)

I just finished part of my assigments. Will do the rest tomorrow :D Supposed to tell jow liie my insignificant stories... but that poor girl had to sleep early cause she had a long day. Will tell her some other day then.

i realise i am CRAPPING!! wahahahaha! *blushes* :P that's cause today i didnt really use my imaginations. I did have a dream when i was napping (but i shall keep that to myself :P)

nity nitez Malaysia!! God bless ya ;)

Football Fever -.-"

Dot and football... do u see any connections there?? :D However, i actually went for the worldcup finals!! (tot to self: since it's once every 4 years... aiya... go and join the hype la :P)

The game was kinda boring due to 2 reasons:
1) France team got no proper communications 1!!! Poor Henry charge so hard but no 1 to pass to
2) I don't really understand the game and i don't know the players (hence, i was quite quiet during the match. didnt want to say anything memalu-fying)

Consequences for staying up til 5am:
1) I was very tired at work
2) Got lots of paper cuts (ouch rite?? :'( )
3) Became so grumpy and upset with my day til i nearly cried in public (so drama hoh?? well... welcome to dot's life :P)
*There were other reasons to why i nearly brokedown la... for example... MALAYSIAN PEOPLE & BANKS!!!
I was helping a China student get his bank account done. But oOh! Those staff just took their own sweet time to process the documents. And to make things worst... their printer koyak!! i had to stand there 4 AN HOUR!!! (maybe for some of you an hour is nothing... but sori la... i'm not as strong as some of you *blushes* and ya... the bank got NO chairs!!)

But all of it ended when i finally reached home at 4. Bathed and ZzZ (finally!! i got to sleep)
Now got assignments to do :s
Tataz!

The Hunt is Finally Over!! :D

hehe... as some of you know... i was on a jeans hunt. And today, it's finally over. Cause i bought me self a pair! yipee!! And it's for a resonable price. (i so good girl hoh? :P)

2day in class... got oral presentation! It was about religions in Malaysia. We had 2 draw lots 2 see which group speaks of which religion. And of all the religions given... i just had to pick the paper with Sikhism in it!!! (I was praying that my group would get Christianity... but... sigh...) i knew nuts bout Sikhism!! Thank God my lecturer allowed us to get info from the net :D It turned out well. I got 5/5!! Thank You Jesus!!

Now, i'm happily eating potato sticks :D
Smile for tomorrow's just a sun rise away!! Love ya!

Memories...

This morning, while getting ready 4 college... i reminded myself to bring a cam for my project. Then the thought of pictures i took and pictures people took of me and with me just came to my mind. I smiled at that thought but that smile turned into teary eyes for i missed the times we shared.
I thought relationships and friendships would last and grow as long as effort is made to strenghten it. But things went the opposite direction i guess...
Now... everything's just cold...
I never knew that sweet & happy memories could sadden someone until this morning. It happens when u start to compare the present and the past... and realise that the present falls short of what happened in the past. (make sense?? :P) Guess it's bout time to put my memories to rest and accept the present, and finally put an end to this fairy tale i'm living in.
Then i realised i'll be late for class if i continued mourning bout the present... So... i sucked my tears back and went to college :D

blog pertama aku!!

haha! my very 1st blog. so sori ya if it's not as canggih :D
(p/s emily: since u'll b the 1st to know if i fall off my bed... dont la b so fussy on my blog :p)

i just ate one of my favorite dishes. it's a soupy dish. i saw my mom cook it.. 1st boil water la.. then she added ketchup (i know ketchup soup sounds gross to some of u... it does to me too. but the final effect tastes good!) and the other ingredients includes carrots, potatoes, onions, button mushrooms and of course CHICKEN!! and when the soup starts to bubble... my mom will add a can of evaporated milk.
sounds easy hoh?? but if u ask me to cook... sorry la huh :P
