This year's Christmas was fun!


We did not repeat the same mistake we did last year - Going out to some *happening* place and find ourselves middle of somewhere like Sungei Wang that is packed with people, ended up doing nothing but sweating profusely and waiting like an idiot just to see fireworks, and when it's time to see fireworks, we could not open our eyes at all because everyone around us are spraying the so called 'snow' from a RM10 bottle! And when it's time to go back from the chaos, we need to squeeze in a practically sandwiched monorail/LRT and get our butt ber-geseran with other people who finds it exciting to have their butt rubbed against someone's butt!!!


This year, we decided to stayed at home, far away from those Christmas fanatic. We went over to Hon's house to play some dice, listen to Christmas songs, and the aim for that night is to get totally wasted (which some of us did). The game we played is called "tai wa sek" (in Cantonese). The game is real simple, and even easier to get people drunk!




Dice and Chivas.. just the tool to get us started! Yeah baby yeah!

You can have it plain, or to mix it with white (sprite) or black (pepsi)


Lai lai lai~ yaaaammmm.. seeeennnggggg!!!!


Without any further ado, I would like to announce the winners on the 'Who Got Wasted' title.


Consolation Prize goes to Vince & CC!!!

2nd runner up goes to Hon!!!


Nichole : Bang.. sudah pengsan ke?

Hon : Aik.. geli~ geli~.. ha... haaaa... jangan lah ... tak mau la.. haha.. gelinyer~ haha~


Next... the 1st runner up is Robin!!!

*self explanatory photos for sharing*

Finally... the winner who won the title of 'Who Got Wasted' is...

Phase 3 : BLUEK!!! (do agree with me that this word is enough to describe the whole thing)


Phase 4 : Lau gong.. wa bhe tahan liao... (and please note that the 2nd runner up pengsan beside her)


Congratulations Rachel! May your alcohol tolerance level increase next year when we try to get you drunk again!!! :P

For those who wonder what happened to me and Nichole, well, amazingly she still have strength to clean up the mess we did. And me... I'm still in mood for weblog after witnessing people stumble and fall after the game. It's now proven that alcohol tolerance for woman is higher than man. Ngek ngek ngek~

Easy and relax life is almost at its end.

A life full with commitment and responsibility starts soon.

These 3 years have been real fun. It's a huge step to take resigning from the working world, and to enter a world that I feel I don't belong. But in the end, it appears to be a wise step. I have no regrets at all. Getting to know friends that we can really hang out with, talk rubbish for hours at the mamak stall and still doesn't seemed like we had enough, I believe that the time spent here at Setapak is the most wonderful time ever.

Studies is studies, that 3 years for me is like.. whatever action I take, it is for me only to bear. I will not drag anyone into my problem, or to affect anybody with the consequences of any action I take. If I'm playful, bad results is for me to bear. If I spend money like nobody business, I would have to find a few more part time jobs. In the end, it's all about me.

Now.. I would have to plan every step that I'm bound to take. It feels like, if I took the wrong step, the consequences would be too much for me to bear. So do I really want to take this step? Going to UK is something I want, but is it something I really need? Guess this questions have been running around the minds of many more classmates who will be graduating soon.

But I've decided. Want to know if I'm going to UK? Look out for me at the airport. If you don't see me, then it's a goodbye.

To classmates who have decided to work/ further studies, I hope this quote may inspire you, or maybe motivate you a little bit, I know I am.


Making a true decision means committing to achieving a result,
and then cutting yourself off from any other possibility.
by Anthony Robbins from Awaken the Giant Within


Well, blog post ends here. Am already rushing like mad for assignments and thesis. Am so so so glad this is the last semester!!! But it crushes me whenever I think about leaving people here. I really tak sampai hati leaving you all.. *Yes, you! Of course you la! I'll definitely be missin' you!!! *

As the clock strikes 2.10am, here I am in the midst of struggling to complete my web blog assignment. Being such a big fan of FOOD, I decided to create a web blog based on the theme ‘Cari-cari makan with Joyce’. The inspiration for choosing this theme definitely comes from KY! Well, I don’t know him personally, but the way he blogs about food always makes me drool!



Since I’m referring a lot to his blog for my assignment, I constantly read his blog post and am very attracted to all the pictures of food taken. It all looked so tempting!!! I couldn’t just look at it and just imagine how delicious it tastes right?!!! So I came up with a new resolution for 2009 – to earn a lot a lot a lot of money and dine at KY's recommended outlets – ALL OF THEM! Can’t wait to try the steaks, grilled shrimps, scallops etc.. so many of them! When can I finish trying all the food in his blog?! I haven’t even start to try any!!! I better buy along a weighing scale to guide my through the new 2009 resolution (if I’m lucky enough).

At the meantime, I guess I should share his blog with friends who can afford to dine at such places, a car to travel to various place (some very ulu in remote area), and one that have great passion for food! Few suitable candidates such as Bernard & Teck Sheng shall be contacted to further discuss this weekend trip to cari-cari makan with Joyce! Haha…

This web blog assignment really sucks! It’s week 9 now, and I only attended 2 lectures. I don’t know what the hell is Adobe Dreamweaver and I definitely have no idea how to design a web blog with it! Damn…

I spent the last Saturday at Putrajaya with a couple of very impulsive friends! Bernard was actually suggesting that since I have such a nice camera to use, why not take pictures of really nice architecture in Putrajaya. Bernard talked about his admiration for the beautiful buildings at Putrajaya, especially at night when all the buildings and bridges are beautifully lit up. According to him, a lot of foreigners was awed by such high level of architecture in Malaysia, thus it’s nonsense for a Malaysian to claim never been to Putrajaya. Since it’s a place that I’ve never been to, so yea, why not!

We drove through Cyberjaya, passing by ex-PM Mahathir’s residence area, and slowly to Putrajaya. One thing to notice when we’re in Putrajaya is the many fancy designs of street lights! Different area has different design of streetlights.

Then we stopped at Dataran Putra in Putrajaya – and I’m so surprised with the cars parked there!!! The parking lot is full!!! Couldn’t believe that Putrajaya (deemed only as a place where most of the Government’s office is located), is actually a nice weekend place for many families to hang out. But to my dismay, we are the only Chinese there. Everywhere we see, it’s Malay people. They brought along their little ones, a “tikar” and some food for a picnic beside the small water fountain.

There we saw the PM’s Office – which is HUGE!!! Couldn’t believe that they actually need such a space to work!!! But besides functioning as an office, it is also a display of some Islamic architectural elements – totally cool??!!!



PM's office at Perdana Putra

 
After having some lousy Malay kuih and drinks at Putrajaya Walk, Alicia and I persuaded Bernard and Chew to join us for the 45 minutes river cruise through Putrajaya man-made lake. It was the first time for me and Alicia, while Bernard has been on the cruise for numerous times. Luckily we 2 ladies managed to persuade Bernard and Chew to join us, and I believed the 2 guys did not regret spending RM30 for their own ticket! Haha! Night view of the buildings and bridges are really fabulous!!! I was speechless.. the scenery is just spectacular.. I took many breathtaking pictures there.. Have a look!

A very Islamic type of arch

Evening view of Seri Wawasan Bridge.. I thought the water is pretty funny though! Haha!


Traditional gondolas - hop in for cruise along Putrajaya man-made lake for only RM20!

An interesting way to take pic - reflection on the glass table!


*peace* Bernard is still thrilled after his numerous visits to Putrajaya :P

Istana Darul Ehsan - a weekend palace for Sultan of Selangor


Monorail Suspension Bridge -
 still not fully developed yet - will look like San Francisco's Golden Gate once completed


Seri Saujana Bridge - resembles Sydney Harbour Bridge


Night view of Seri Saujana Bridge fully lit up! Wonderful!


Seri Wawasan Bridge look fabulous at night!!! Very different from the one I took during evening!

One should really appreciate Putrajaya.. this beautifully designed township.. Malaysia BOLEH!!!

Have been very grumpy these few days...

Sometimes it's my own problem that gets me down.. And sometimes is just stupid problem that people is giving me.

And the worst is that I feel very angry of myself for being such as stupid person. Whenever I think about "him", I hit myself on the head and say out loud "I'm a stupid FOOL!!!". Whenever I see places or things that reminds me of him, I go hitting my head and shout again!!! And I've been such a fool ever since.. for 5 long years to be with him!!! Anyone ever been so angry of themselves the way I am now?!!

Love is blind, and I'm blinded by the things he said. I should have put my specs on.. I should have do a laser treatment to open up my blurry eyes! But I didn't.. Instead, I give, give and give him more.. and now I can never take any of it back! How do I get him to return my money?!

I feel so numb whenever I think about him, and all I have right now is just hatred.. no more good memories that worth remembering for.. What I remember him as, is just a liar and b*stard who borrowed my hard earned money without the intention of returning it. And the thing I remembered him most is for betrayal, with his stupid blog about theory of third party (according to him, third party is the true love who comes later). Well, it's a very good "excuse" to cover up his betrayal.

With all these problem going on in my mind, here I am being so angry of something else. It's always easier to be angry, than to be understanding, or to say sorry. So people stays angry because it's easier that way.

I need my money back, I'm seriously broke!!! It's so easy to lend people money, but it's always hard to get it back!!! ARggghhhhh... He's a shitty guy who don't have balls!!! ARRGGHHH!!!!!

Horray! Blogspot I’m back!!!

So many exciting event took place for the past few days! And one of it is my birthday celebration!!!

I had a wonderful birthday!!!
I had a blast!!!and it lasted for almost a week!!!

Day 1
-Birthday girl belanja whole family out for dinner at the usual restaurant – occupied 2 tables!

-Then proceed to KEC, an executive club where dad usually patrons. Few members of Cousin Starz were supposed to perform Mr. Q but the DJ did not manage to find the song (new DJ, should have suggest to fire her on the spot).

-Brought along my birthday cake made by sis – a plain chocolate cake with no icing nor cream, but with LOTS OF LOVE! Dad dedicated a birthday song for me (continuously from English, Mandarin to Cantonese version – lasted for 3 boring minutes), and practically everyone in the club is singing along. I felt kind of embarrassed, but luckily sis was being kind by putting only 1 stick of candle on the cake.



With sis home made chocolate cake~

-Sister in-law tried to get me drunk. She and my aunt wallop half bottle of dad’s Chivas. She kept saying “Want your camera or not?! If want, drink!”.. she said that everytime I finishes my drink, then she gets the waiter to pour more for me.



With 2nd sister in-law & mum... look at mum's red face!!! She had more drink than usual!

With mum, sis and dad my dearest - don't ask why is my sis alot taller than me!

Bro is always with his "peace sign" !!! Stay with me abit longer and I'll prove to u why I say so..

These people was trying to get me drunk! But we're all still standing strong after the half bottle of Chivas!

Highlight of the night: Dad joget with mum!!! It’s so sweeettt… I then kacau kacau daun by joining them *bluek*


Look at this loving couple.. gosh~ We had a wonderful family night. I should consider bringing the whole kampung out to Bangsar one night.. haha!

God.. I'm blessed to be a part of this family.. THANK YOU!!!


Day 2
-Aunt cook the traditional ‘mee suah’ with pork liver. Mum boil egg and I’m in-charged of putting the red dye on the egg. Had a traditional birthday lunch.


Don't ever miss the red egg on birthday - it is for a healthy and prosperous year!


Mee suah for longevity~Many more wonderful birthdays to come eh?

-In conjunction with parent 26th wedding anniversary, we had a party at night. With close family members. Had a blast!

-Aunt cooked Penang traditional lam mee. She’s a super chef, trying to show me what traditional dish looks like, all the way from the preparation till how it is garnished! I can’t have enough of her lam mee! And all the while I thought my mum is the best cook. Haha!

-Third sister in-law bought Secret Recipe Chocolate Indulgence cake written “Happy Wedding Anniversary! Many more loving years to come!" ... Accompanied with champagne, which dad have trouble opening! Haha!


Mak, ayah, abang-abang sekalian dan sis-in laws. Pic taken in a pondok built by dad for the kids to play. We call it the Happy Clubhouse. Look at the smile on our faces.. :P


Gimme the biggest piece of cake pleeaasseee~

Cheerrrsss!!! Dad with the Goh sisters..


Prove #1 : He's doing the peace sign..


Prove # 2 : What?! The peace sign again?! Haha!!! .. time to sing the song "He ain't heavy, he's my brother"

Day 3
-To Green Box with bunch of good friends after watching Madagascar 2 at Times Square.

-Vince tried to surprise me by buying a cake but the waiter spoil the whole surprise by asking out loud in the karaoke room “Do you want me to bring the cake in now?”. (this waiter should join the DJ – FIRED!)
-Vince is as kind as sis, put only 1 candle on the third cake I had in a week. It taste superduperlicious! But the Secret Recipe chocolate cheese tasted abit “jelak” after 1 big piece.






Day 4 (actual birthday)
-Vince brought me to Leisure Mall to pick a watch for myself. So many watches to choose from, but only one catches me eyes! Thank you Vince!!!

-Had lunch at Wong Kok Char Chan Teng Restaurant – was supposed to get a free giant Hong Kong “nai cha” on my birthday, but one of the Terms & Conditions is to have 6 people. So I’m not entitled to any birthday drink. Pity me..

-Vince gave me a last surprise by making 2 trip to nearby JJ – only to get my crystal bracelet repaired! At last… after 2 years, I’m finally wearing the bracelet he bought for me – a bracelet that marks the beginning of our love story *blush*








Day 5
Went to Wong Kok at One Utama the next day, but with only Vince & Robin. Still not enough people to be entitled any birthday drink. So no birthday drink that day too. Kesian saya..


Day 7

Next 2 days went to same Wong Kok, but at SS2 P.J. Don’t ask me why we patron this restaurant so much. Not that I like the food there, the restaurant just happened to be everywhere!!! Haha!!! Well, at last I have 6 people with me to be entitled for a birthday drink, but guess what?!! The waitress said “Sorry, but it has been 4 days after your actual birthday, we only accept 3 days before and 3 days after”. So… no giant birthday drink!!! All my cousins and I tried to be rebellious by ordering plain water for every one of us. Hahahaha!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
