Have a Break!

with the stressors i faced last month... KitKat wouldnt have helped much!

so i went with my family for a HOLIDAY!!! :D (ok i'll admit... this holiday added quite a bit to the stress i faced.. cause it was the weekend before my assignment DATELINES!!! *faints*)

but it's all over now! and i'm glad i went! :D


we went to Malacca! =) absolutely love that place!

popo found her new love! oops! :P

the dude in red is the dude that goes around introducing "good" food. this shop sells chicken rice balls.. but nobody goes there anymore.. cause thanks to him.. the balls got so commercialized it's not yummy anymore! *bummer*

also... i would think it's his lack of ability to pose for the camera that caused the downfall of the shop :P

it was a 2 days 1 night trip! so we rented a house, a VERY NICE house!!! (i've been missing it since!! :( )

this is my cousin and her family =)

these are the things that happen when you're more than half a decade older than the youngest people in the group




we were there sempena the birthday of my nephew and niece... but cause her bday was 1 week earlier... she didnt get as much attention..

also! he turned 16.. and his parents spent quite a lot of money for this trip!

hence the faces behind :P

more pics will be on FB's Family Portraits =)

p/s Yeem: THERE YOU GO! :D

I Wished...

... and i received
can u guess can u guess what's this?? hehe!
my cellies must have known better that a pair of RayBan's just too much for me to handle.. cause my heart will break if i broke a pair of RayBans.. so they've decided to get me the Fossil shades i tried on and some other goodies, which would be bought with...

these Vouchers!! :D (now i've just gotta use them wisely :D)

well.. those things were sorta expected la.. cause Jo and Leez were the ones that asked me to update my wishlist..

BUT!!!


this wasnt expected!! :D
Sandra told me the title was inspired by my blog!! :D how sweet is that?! :D :D
as i've told them, i cried when i read the messages they wrote for me, now this board is pasted on my wall (covering my Jerry Yen poster! :D)

On the other hand...
my sweeties... sighs...
all of them came for the party... and all they got me was

well.. if u cant read.. it says Charles & Keith la...
ya.. they got me a branded those what-ever-bags-u-call-them-that-are-also-sold-in-ikea...

HEHEHE!
OF COURSE NOT!!!
i wished for Charles & Keith Voucher(s) and A Black Bag...
and my Sweeties got me


THIS!!!
i'm absolutely LOVIN this bag, cause it's SEXAY!!!

i didnt give much specifics to the bag i wanted, cause i wasnt even sure if i wanted a bag... but now that i have it... YES! I LOVE THE BAG! :D

thanks Yue and Sab for taking the time to hunt for this for me!!! :D
and of course to my other sweeties, thanks for being willing to pay for this! :D

my other dearies from church gave me an uber cute card

Count the Dots! :D

They actually got 20 ppl to write messages for me and the 21st message was a prayer!!! *loves*
*messages inside are only for private viewing, hence no pictures were taken*
hah! no la! i took a pic of the card too! but i realized the writings were too small.. so no point putting it up here..
so this cute part of the picture will suffice :D

hehe! another thing i wished for...

:D what i didnt expect was... it came from 2 guys! haha!
i find it cute having guys buying make up for girls :D
Dear Nelson and Jeff, Thanks!!! :D

well... there were also things that i didnt wish for...

But i Equally Love!!! cause they smell so DELICIOUS!!!!
now i must break my tak-sampai-hati mentality and use it so i'll smell yummy too! Rawr! :P


Darling gave me a book that looks so fun to read! haha!
but thanks to my QUIZ! -.- i havent started reading it yet :( will read it during the raya break! :D

Isnt this pretty?? Instead of using a ribbon, Caleb and May hung this over the paper bag they gave me which contained 2 tops (i no know how to take macro shots of shirts.. teehee!) This is actually a long necklace, Love it! :D

Oh cousin Veronica couldnt make it for my party, so she came during the week to pass me a lil gift
it's so LOVELY!!! (this was my 1st thot)
my 2nd thot? "but i dont have a necklace to go with it..."

so i secretly wished at the back of my head... "i want a fine and simple necklace"

Then Amanda came with this! :D
i could keep the pendant and earrings for special occasions... but the necklace's just perfect! :D
Thanks Manda! :D

hehe! my antiques were the cutest! Being antiques... they actually gave me ANGPAUs!!! haha!
really, i would have wished for ca$h cause it's the most practical! but i didnt cause it seemed weird to ask for money! haha! (i still had a lil shame :P)
so thanks dears!! :D

Presents aside, Last nite was REALLY special for me and i cant Thank YOU enuf for being a part of it! :D

THANKS for EVERYTHING! =)

who said wishing aloud would break the magic of wishes? :P

Sonee's Extreme Makeover

Sonee has been with me for *counts* 5 years already? We've had great moments, or should i say shots together =)

however, as time passed, Sonee wore out

and showed signs of lagging (especially under poor lighting)

it has been my wish for i-cant-even-remember-how-long to give Sonee an upgrade...

i believe Sonee had the same idea, she wanted to be better, feel better and LOOK better

This year, in the light of my 21st birthday, my uncle and aunty decided to bless Sonee and I with a makeover for Sonee!

before i show you the AFTER pics, in conjunction of the makeover, i've decided to give Sonee a new name...

so now i present to you...

SoneeT (the additional T because Sonee got the T-series makeover package :D)

Her specs got upgraded,

instead of buttons, SoneeT's got a touchscreen now!

and of course, now, SoneeT's got STYLE! *teehee*

*pics of Sonee were taken with SoneeT :D

happy happy!!! wait til i show you the shots SoneeT and i took :D

Golden

last week i had cravings for pancakes... but the only economical pancakes available were sold in McDs and only during breakfast hours.. but nobody i know nor i would want to get up so early just to satisfy my as-if-i'm-pregnant cravings...

cooking it myself would be an option (if only i had the mix at home... no.. mixing it myself... lets not get there shall we? :P)
but then again... *recalls the image of the pancakes i made the last time*
sighs... my brother can testify to it... they looked more like scrambled eggs than pancakes... sighs...

BUT!!! this time around...
mom's very lovable friend.. i have no idea who she is.. but she's still lovable because she gave my mom a non-stick pan!!!
so i asked mom to get a box of pancake mix from Giant...

*cuts long story short*



VIOLA!!!
aint it a beauty?
seriously... this is the FIRST time i made such nice golden pancakes! :D
*smiles in pride* :P

Happy Shots

As some of you would have known, i went for a visit to Hosp Bahagia on Thurs. Initially i thot i would get to see the patients and observe them for a bit... that would have been cool... but this visit was way off from wat i expected...

we visited the dragon fruit farm in the hosp's vicinity instead...

well... when when the Happy Hosp throws u dragon fruits... u take HAPPY SHOTS!

what's up Doc?
this is Julia, one of the UTAR interns i worked with for the past month =)

me first time seeing such a white bunga raya, aint it pretty? :D

now where did the smurfs go? :P




more mushrooms!

aint it cute? :D

after melting under the sun, we were brought to some place that served COCONUT WATER!!! woot!

while drinking i spotted this^

the chess pieces were carved from cengal wood

after touring the hosp (in the bus) we went pomelo shopping. Then, we went to KAMI center, a center that provides family support for the caregivers of the mentally ill.

they had this uber cool activity

called the drum circle

we participated in it and this was what i played :D

after buying the "Yim Gok Kai" (salted/salty chicken) we headed HOME! =)

the agenda wasnt wat i expected alrite, but i had great fun with the people i went with! =)

Santa came EARLY this year!

first thing's first, i dont believe in Santa.. and Christmas ISNT about Santa...

but since presents are likened to him... we'll just go along with it k!

Uncle Alfred (daddy's church fren) just came back from a family hol to Aust..
and they got us...
THESE!!!

HOW TO DIET U TELL ME?!
:P

PEET!

last monday! :D we...
Sab, Dot and my bro Adam went to KLCC to get some pics for our photography assignment- PHOTO JOURNALISM!
ha! it's kinda fun discovering that instead of simply being a camwhore.. i can actually be a photographer! :P

HOWEVER! the sem has not ended... so i still cant post up pics of my work... so just bear with the camwhoring pics 1st la k! :P


yes... my brother didnt really have a fun childhood... so being nice.. sab i and brought him to the Kids' Park! :D

the pair =)
the rebel! :P
the CHEEKY! hehe!

pics above (after the taman kanak-kanak pic that is) were NOT taken at the KLCC Park

so ya... back to the park...

the Hot! *muahahaha*

*ahem* WHO say i didnt do work ar?!
got PIC to prove it k! :P

more cam-whoring! (it all started here...)we were HAPPILY playing... (do click on the pic to ENLARGE it if u can.. and look at my oh-so-HAPPY brother! :P)

it was such a vibrant colored park!

everyone! i mean really... EVERYONE would be happy just looking at the colors in the playground! not to mention its SIZE!

hehe! in my moment :P
come on.. COME ON!!! turn into a prince already! *desperation*

BUT!!!

these people just HAD to ruin things!!!
they kept whistling at us!!!
i mean... SORRY we didnt get to have so many things to play with at the park when we were younger! (seriously... the playground was MASSIVE!)

but FINE! we know ADAM had WAY PASSED the age of sitting on rides in a playground...
so we walked to the plain to take the group pic u saw with Sab's FishEye... MANA TAU!!! we got PEET-ed at AGAIN!!! ROAR!

so annoying! hence the title :P

but we aint gonna let no whistling stop us!

the cam-whoring spirit NEVER DIES!!!

despite living together for 20 years...

we still couldnt get over our sibling rivalry la :P

the cheaper version of a FishEye effect!
actually the FREE version la :P


...ALIKE of course ;)

see!!! due to the PEET-ing... we were all so paranoid of guards with whistles! they were EVERYWHERE!
yet.. the urge to camwhore was just toO strong!
so i quickly squatted down beside this phrase and Sab just snapped away without realising "ALIKE" was out of the frame :(

*KISS U pms-ing guards with whistles!!! HMPH!*

happy thots Dot, HAPPY THOTS!

found one!!!
this is my FAV pic of the day!!! :D
thanks to Sab's FishEye :D

which makes me wanna have 1 myself too! Christmas' round the corner... HINT!!! to who i dunno la... sigh... :P
