WONDERING WHERE I'M AT?

2008-03-08T02:46:00.002+10:00

After such a long time, i am finally able to move on. Memories is what kept me here for the past 3 years, and I think a change would be good.

Site's still going to be open. Wanna dig my past? Here should be a good place!

Check her out!

2008-03-08T00:51:00.002+10:00

So how many of you watches one tree hill season 5? If you do, then you should be able to recognize the person that I'm about to introduce. She's Mia- the singer that Peyton signed for her "record" company.

Well, i do love music but I don't really notice good tunes, esp from TV shows until almost the end of the show. One tree hill is NOT ending, but I received a myspace invite from Kate Voegele, i am not sure if its the real her but it should be cos many artist becomes famous from Myspace.

It was the typical, "I can see you are a fan of one tree hill, check out my tunes" and I did. I start noticing her and her songs on the show, and i really really like them. My kinda music, if you know what I mean. Her voice is awesome and she's really talented. I mean come on, a chick who plays the guitar, piano and sings. I am so inspired! I so wanna be able to that as well.. I am not sure if she has an album, but I think she does and I so want to buy it. So people, introducing to you KATE VOEGELE

Her popularity is going to boost, its only a matter of time! Her acting skills are pretty good as well. See, multi-talented and pretty! So, check her out!

Jocelyn Bong has a sickness

2008-03-06T23:21:00.003+10:00

JOCELYN BONG HAS A NEW PHONE!!!
Thats right, you heard it right! I got a new phone.. Told you I have a sickness, I couldn't resist!
So I got a plan for 3 so every month I pay $49 and I get this phone for free after two years. I'm loving it! Did you know I walk out of the shop without spending a dime, not a dime! I walked out of the shop with a NEW PHONE! If you must know, i'm loving my "shake shake" phone.

And my old phone, not so old (7 months old?) is in Rehab. Well, I'm keeping it for Brunei use. HAHA I indeed have a sickness, I have never used a phone for more than a year, maybe I did but its only a little bit over a year.... Basically NEVER more than one year. I have been changing from one phone to another ever since I got my first phone. Ohhh! my first phone, Samsung. Brings back lots of memories. I actually hop from one brand to another and I finally settled at Sony Ericsson, my past 3 phones were Sony Ericsson. I love SONY!

Everyone is using Sony nowadays, i guess its "in". Nokia users are switching to Sony.

I love my phone because:

the trackID works, it actually tells you what song it is.
the internet works awesomely, just like i'm on a laptop, except I'm not.
I can find out where I am if I'm lost, there's a map. GPS, they call it.
it changes song when I shake.
its a slidey phone (my first slide phone).
I can watch TV on it.
It tells me the weather.

In conclusion, having a phone here is AWESOME. All the functions work!

What I miss and don't!

2008-03-06T22:57:00.005+10:00

So, this is my third week in the land of Brissie, I don’t hate this place. To be honest, Brisbane is a great place- a great place to study, to shop, to walk around and etc.

BUT, I am still adapting. No one can get used to anything straight away, I guess it takes time. I have finally moved into my own house, slowly settling down and getting use to the everyday routine.

So what do I miss?

My car (not mine but I drive it so that makes it mine)

Travelling in busses is tiring. Three weeks of bus riding and I’m still not used to it. Oh man, four or more years of bus. As you know, I’m a super last minute person so I always miss the bus by a few minutes or less. It’s a Jocelyn thing I think, missing the damn bus. I’m too used to walking out of the house and into the car and drive out instead of getting out of the house, walk down the road to the bus stop and hop on the next bus that comes.

It takes about 45 minutes or more to get to campus during peak hour. Plus walks in between. At least five minutes of walk but that’s not so bad as getting back. I’m still not so familiar with the busses and stuff so I use the long way from campus to the city, then back to Taringa, where I stay. Instead of taking the normal bus to the central, I take the free shuttle to Garden’s point and then I make my way to the central, which takes me about 15 minutes or less if I walk fast enough

My new bunch of friends (and of course the old one’s as well)

Just hanging out with them is pretty much the entertainment of most of my days; there are new stories everyday and new jokes as well.

I miss the yamcha-ing, drinking, karaoke-ing, gambling , road trips, club hoping, playing basketball as well but knowing me, I’m lazy like half of the time and I always turn up one hour late, especially for basketball.

Then again, I have no friends here yet. But even if I did, I would still miss them lots. Seeing someone everyday, and suddenly not is a dramatic change.

And of course, my other friends as well

My mum

Even though I talk to her or sms her almost every single day but no doubt, I still miss her a lot.

I miss driving her out, talking to her (even though half of time she is not listening to me), arguing with her, the nags on how I don’t spend enough time with her (she doesn’t even LISTEN to me) and etc. HAHA I miss mommy!

The Brunei time

Everything seems faster here. Everyone walk fast here. OMG! I miss the slow Brunei and time seems to fly because surprisingly I have been here for almost three weeks already.

When I first arrived, I would purposely jet lag myself like instead of it being 10 I would convince myself its 8. But note, I only jet lag myself at night. I just don’t bother when its morning. All mornings seem the same to me. I hate mornings.

For the record, while EVERYONE is walking fast, I’m right behind- catching up! Walking slowly, taking my time (now, you know why I always miss the damn bus).

What I don’t miss?

The mall

Malls and shops here are way better. There are more selection in clothing and the quality and styles here are so much better. Now, you understand why I can’t stop shopping. After all I do need a new wardrobe, since I’m in a new setting.

Shopping is awesome here. If any of you decides to come visit Brisbane, ring me up or BEG for my number then ring me up. I wouldn’t mind taking you around that gives me more reason to shop.

My house

To be honest with everyone, I reckon the house here is better though it’s rented. It’s a town house, not a “small” house like what I thought. It has two bedrooms (for my brother and I) and the bedrooms are on the third floor, the kitchen and living room are on the second floor and the ground floor is the garage and laundry area. Did I mention, I have a HUGE veranda. It’s just awesome.

I know right, I have to walk up so many stairs everyday just to get to my room. It gets tiring but its good exercise, I guess. Visit brissie and you can come stay with me as well.

My room isn’t big but it’s quite spacious because I kind of rearranged my room to make it bigger. Obviously, my brother got the bigger room because he is “older” along with all the crap reasons he gave me. I don’t really mind my room, I kind of like it. Oh, the living room is sleep-able as well so you’ll be fine if you do drop by.

The weather

Brunei is freaking hot. It gets hot here as well but sometimes just for a short while. But if it does get hot here, the good thing is we can wear as little clothes as possible and not get stared at. It has four seasons here, its summer now but the weather is fairly good.

The weather here is dry. Unlike Brunei hot and humid, its hot and dry here. So yes, my whole face is dried up and I reckon I can peel off one layer of my skin. But besides that, I really like the weather here.

So, obviously what I miss is more than what I don’t. In conclusion, I MISS HOME. I reckon I’ll give it one more year, or until I make enough friends to take my mind off what I miss.

People here likes to use the word “reckon” so I’m trying to fit in, you know get the ball rolling. HAHA! Sorry for the sudden lack of updates, I just moved in like days ago and there was no Internet. Dude, everyone here communicate through Internet. I missed a meeting because I didn’t check my mails for like two days. That’s crazy. Finally, I got it! Life does not seem so meaningless after all.

I am in desperate need of printer. I have lots of notes to print out and lots of readings to do. Internet can be said to be my LIFE! Oh, what do I do if I didn’t have Internet? In class, I feel so dumb because I haven’t done any readings and printed out lectures or tutorial notes. I see a busy weekend for myself, just reading the craps and “understanding” them.

I switched to Mozilla firefox, I'm sorry if the wordings are screwed up, in terms of size. This sucks!

daughtry knows it!

2008-03-06T19:04:00.002+10:00

"I was blown away (literally).
What could I say?
It all seemed to make sense.
You've taken away everything,
And I can't deal with that.
I try to see the good in life (here, in brissie),
But good things in life are hard to find..."

For now, this song is my inspiration. The lyrics really reflect me, not the same way it reflected him but in my own ways. As I learn last year in Media clas, yadaa yadaa yadaa.. I won't go much deeper into what I learn last year. Its a bore!

Sorry for the lack of upates, the internet at home ain't set up yet. Yea, i suffer. All i do at home is watch Tv shows, lots of TV shows.. and think of what I wanna blog about on Microsoft word and attempt to read my lecture notes, and textbooks.

As you know, I'm taking Education here and the education here is very different from where I come from so yes, EXTRA READINGS FOR ME. To make myself not feel so left out in class, I reckon thats the only solution for now. For the record if you must know, I made friends. Like a few, mostly white and one korean. They're quite nice i suppose but...

You know, i just notice how anti-social I am. Maybe its because I'm not from this country and I find it relatively hard to make friends.

Oh, I bought a new phone! You wanna know more about my new phone go google search on Sony Ericsson W990i and I'll detail it more on another post when I get my internet.

Yes, I have no internet yet. Still waiting, should be by today cos I received a "modem" early this morning. I'm now in Abby and Cassy's house, they are busy cooking dinner and i'm here, doing this. HAHA Oh, and I still can't stop shopping, but I'm learning "self control" if not I can say BYE BYE to food!

Love love

Sleeping is an activity, not free time.

2008-02-27T19:15:00.003+10:00

I got back from my 4 hours class and slept. Suddenly I got a call, it was Abby.

Me- Hello
Abby-Eh are you home?
Me- Yea
Abby- What you doing?
Me-Sleeping?
Abby- Oh! So you free the whole afternoon?
Me- Nooo, I'M BUSY! I'M SLEEPING!
Abby- Why you so grouchy? Blablabla.... (and goes on about how grouchy I am)

HAHA i thought this convo was funny! But at that time, I was kind of grouchy. I said I was sleeping and she asked me whether I was free this afternoon.. What the heck was that about? HAHA Then when I went down to open the door for Cass in my boxers, there was abby outside the lift! HAHAHA i heard i look like a zombie coming out of the lift. HEHE

Things change when the environment change

2008-02-27T18:05:00.005+10:00

As one of my journey ends,
Another begins, I'm glad to say that after being here for several days, I'm finally getting the fact that I'm in a whole other country in my head. Though at times i still purposely make myself jet lag. Like how i would think its Brunei time instead of Brissie time.

My first day in the city and I found Easy way.. Oh this just reminds me of home!

My bus rides, oh! over here my only source of transportation is the bus. And I only know how to get from St Lucia to the city and Garden's point to Kelvin Grove. The rest of the route I'm stil very blur.
Nothing reminds me of Brunei more than this flag! After all I did stay in Brunei my whole life, you can't expect me to adapt that fast! =( I'm not superman.

Oh I'm soooo not satisfied with my ID card, the day before I did my Id card I did not have enough of sleep so the next morning i look like as if I was dying, you should've seen those eyebags. DAMN IT WAS HUGE.

So as i was sitting down there ready to smile, the lady took an unusually long time to look for my info so i kinda got lazy and when she said "1, 2, 3 SMILE" I was like "errrr......" and then my face turned out like THAT.

The first shirt i bought from Brissie. The brand is UGLY LITTLE BITCH!!

I've been staying with Abby and Cassy for the past few days. They live in the city so everything is pretty easy for me. I kinda know the roads but thats if you dont take a detour. I only know how to go straight! Tomorrow night, i'll be moving to my own accomadation in a suburb, Taringa. YEA!!!! i can't wait to have my OWN room.. I wanna stick things on my wall =)

Thats what Brissie's all about, THE CITY!

P.s- I havent took any pictures in the Uni yet so I think I will soon. AND when I do, I will post them up.

Lots of love!!!

Just something I came across,

2008-02-26T19:59:00.001+10:00

I miss... all the photo sessions.

Anyways, class starts tomorrow for me. My first lecture, omg i dont know how i feel.. Excited? I guess. Today, i met up with my brother to do the accomodation stuff and then walked around a bit. He showed me the place where they sell cheap DVDs and CDs, pretty awesome!

OMG class starts tomorrow. Assignments, Study! OMG i haven't gone to class for almost 3 months. Damn! I have to adjust now.

Bus 421

2008-02-25T20:27:00.004+10:00

Hey guys, miss me yet?

I am not settled yet, as I can't move in to my accomodation yet until maybe Thursday. So i'm currently a nomad moving from one place to another. Heh!? I have been here for almost 3 days. I have actually accomplish quite alot in this three days. I am getting used to the public transport life. I sat on the bus, and city cat (a boat thingy) but I'm yet to go on a train.

I have also explored the city a bit. I walked around and I am starting to remember some places. Cassy taught me which bus I should get on from wherever to wherever.

This place is awesome, but there is no where better than home. Maybe its because, I just arrived here and still have not met people on my own yet. I am only here for 3 days, give me a break!

Today, Uni starts so I went to campus to enroll and pick my timetables. I think I am the LAST to enroll so my classes are so damn sucky. I have full day class on Wednesday, one class on Monday, Thursday and Friday. Crazy right! I have four classes on Wednesday.. FOUR, FOUR, I SAID FOUR! haha

Brisbane, Hmmmm, Brisbane is filled with white people. Especially my campus, I think i only see 30% Asian.. It's crazy! You know how they say, Melbourne and Perth is filled with Asians, well not here!

Food here, its okay but its very expensive! This afternoon I ate Japanese Curry and that plate cost me AUD $8.80 and you know how i never finish my food, well I didnt finish it! So expensive! Stuff here is super duper wuper expensive!

Today, I also open a bank account- ALL BY MYSELF! So damn proud of myself..

Hopefully I get to move in on Thursday, HOPEFULLY my brother gets the key by then. I really want to move in to a place on my own so I can design my room. HAHA My class on thurs is at 4-6pm so i'm thinking if i should move in before or after. AHHH! If before then I have to come back to the city and then to Kelvin Grove, if after it might be too late. Coonfuseee!!!!

Ah well, I'm done for now. I'm missing the new bunch, maybe because I hang out with them everyday and suddenly I am in a different atmosphere, time zone and I don't see them. Totally weird! I don't even see my regular friends everyday, except Tracy but she ain't regular (she's too special to be regular ;) HAHA) BUT yea, I see them everyday.. So, its weird NOT!!

Well, I should go now.

Love love.

Finally, Brissie.

2008-02-23T18:57:00.003+10:00

You cannot imagine how badly I wanted the aeroplane to U-turn but then again, thats impossible. I reached Brissie and the first person I saw is non other than my fellow Bruneian, Abby the butthead. She was nice enough to pick me up from the airport, but everybody knows with intention (I have her new phone). I keep going on about how we're in the wrong country. "We're in the FREAKIN wrong country!!!'

I miss home and all my friends back home. Since I can't go home anytime soon so... I'm just going to enjoy my life to the fullest. I'm now living with Becky and Cait and will be moving in to my own house with my brother on thursday. And classes starts on monday but I havent enrolled yet so I'm going to campus on Monday to enroll.

Ahoy matey!

The airport scene

2008-02-23T18:48:00.004+10:00

The airport scene was pretty but up to the end, I just could not hold it in any longer. Thank you friends for making it to the airport, eventhough some came super last minute, but I know you guys have the heart.

I still hate airports.

Funny story, she came after I went in. So just for her, I came back out to take a photo and hug her goodbye before I had to go back in again. It was sad! I was alreadyy crying. So this last photo, must be posted!

Thanks Uncle Ben for the photographss..

Final countdown (Part 2)

2008-02-23T16:09:00.008+10:00

Just as I was getting so comfortable being around you guys, I have to leave. But I'm glad I made friends with you guys cos I know you guys will be there when I'm back.

Totally enjoyed my last day in Brunei, with you guys around.

Final countdown (Part 1)

2008-02-23T16:03:00.004+10:00

My afternoon hang outs with Ting and Carrie.

And of course, my small friend.

Love, love.

2 days and counting

2008-02-20T04:00:00.000+10:00

I will miss YOU truly, and only YOU alone.

I so don't wanna go.

Full of emotions

2008-02-18T20:49:00.002+10:00

I hate airports.

I really, really, truly hate airports.

As I was standing in the airport, my mind wandered off to "how it will be like on friday" mode. As my mind was wandering farther and farther away, I suddenly got pulled back into reality.

As I watch my friend hug every single one of her family and friends goodbye, I wandered away again but this time, for a split second because it was my turn to get hugged.

Oh dear! I can sense that the airport scene on Friday won't be pretty!

Bye Tia, have fun in Perth!

Too much enjoyment!

2008-02-18T02:20:00.002+10:00

I'm sooooo loving my last few days in Brunei, definately memorable!

4 more days and I'll love you more.

Just doing what Mr, Unprofessional asked me to.

Jocelyn Bong has six more wonderful days to create a memory.

Indian food- check

Korean food- check

Chinese food- check

Japanese food- not checked

Italian food- not checked

Swenson's- not checked

It's not all about the food by the way. Not forgeting, hanging out with the different bunch and throw a drinking party at home. For the first time, I'm leaving to somewhere so far away. It seems interesting, but I have a feeling I will have homesick, maybe after the first month- after all the fun.

I just blinked once

2008-02-15T17:09:00.003+10:00

Destination: Brisbane, Queensland (AU)

Date: 22nd February 2008
Time: 1145 AM (Most prob be there 2 hours before the flight)
Flight: Royal Brunei Airlines

And again, I can't believe I'm flying off in exactly one week. The three months holiday have came and gone, and now I have to start classes and start doing assignments again. I really prefer bumming, but I guess there's a limit it gets really boring after a while.

Sexy baby

2008-02-15T17:00:00.002+10:00

How awesome would it be if you could say, "My dad is Brad Pitt and my mom is Angelina Jolie".

The two sexiest people on earth..

Take me there

2008-02-14T02:49:00.005+10:00

Gong xi, Gong xi again!

So how's it going? My brother left on Sunday, and I'm going to see him in like 8 days. Damn, I'm leaving in 8 days. I can't face that fact just yet! So much to do in so little time. One of my things to do is to eat the different kind of food that I will miss cos it's going to be damn expensive there. But, I'm not the kind that will starve just cos its more expensive than where I come from. Some things you just can't help!

The bartender is gone now. My dad is the saddest I think! Cos he is loves the drinks my brother makes.
That Sunday I went to KB with my friends. We went to Kat's house to gong xi gong xi haha It was fun I was in KB for exactly 12 hours. Long time, long time! We gambled, drank and took many many photos. As you can see below. I know right, posers! HAHA

Anyways, I finally got to watch a film today, CJ7. The stephen Chow show, its quite funny i must admit but its quite senseless.. But I guess it was okay, quite cute! I begged my friends to go watch with me. Everyone was like wondering "why the sudden change? Why watching movie instead of the usual" HAHA Wheeee, its Vday today so i just wanna wish everyone a "HAPPY VALENTINE DAY!" May it be awesome for all the taken and single people out there. =) Next show, Jumper!

Hooked on..

2008-02-10T02:07:00.000+10:00

放羊的星星, My Lucky Star.

I have never watch a show that is really good, a taiwanese Drama that is. And the actor is so hot! Oh, faint! I have been drawn into their world, and will be in there for a few more days so.... REAL WORLD, i will be away for a while.

12 more beautiful dayss....

In 13 days,

2008-02-09T04:16:00.000+10:00

and I'll start my long-winding journey.

A whole new journey where I have to learn to be independent all by myself. My life have been great, I must say. With the multiple friends I have made in Miri and Brunei itself.

To be honest, I'm not ready to leave yet. I was suppose to fly off this Sunday with my brother but paper works not done yet, thankfully. And therefore I have another good ol' 13 days in Brunei, at home where its cosy and safe.

I may look like I'm ready to face the world. But the truth is I'm NOT!

In this 13 days I have lots to conquer, lots to do:

Play more basketball.
Hang out with the new bunch more.
"Connect" with my parents.
Prepare myself for a whole new world out there.
Collect more ang paus for "extra spending" purposes.

and etc.

In 13 days, oh dear 13 DAYS.

Lovin' CNY

2008-02-09T01:34:00.001+10:00

I'm lovin' CNY! At first, I thought it was going to be quiet because my mom said we're only going to visit a few houses. Before we used to visit like 10 houses in a day, but nowadays we only visit like at most six houses a day, so that means less money right?

Well I was wrong, I think people are more generous nowadays, and I don't know why. HAHA but collecting ang paus are a joy to me. For the rest of my holidays from today onwards, I don't have to ask money from my mama anymore. Whoots!

COE is not in yet (those asses better send it in soon or I might go crazy). The confirm date I'm leaving will be on the 22nd. Damn it, I was suppose to leave this sunday. Oh well, hang out here longer. Don't have to worry about living on my own for another 2 weeks. But to be honest, I miss living alone. The last time I was living alone was about 3 months ago.

Chloe and her grandparents were over at my house just now.

Chloe- When you go Australia you hug aunty Bee for me okay?

Me- Ooookay?

Chloe (to my brother)- Why your face so red?

Me- Cos he put make up.

My brother- Yea, I put make up.

Chloe- You look like my mummy!

Me- HAHAHAHAHAHA

She was looking at photographs of me when I was a kid around the house, She had the exact same hair style as me. The shortness and the fringe so I think that made her feel better about having short hair. I think its adorable! Kids with short hair and fringe. Its a thing, all asian kids have the same hair.

Gong xi Gong xi everyone.

Exactly 2 more weeks.

Happy CNY fellow readers

2008-02-06T13:36:00.001+10:00

(by Sarah Ong, CNY-ey enough)

As Chinese New Year is just around the corner, I just want to wish my fellow readers a very HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR. At this time of the year, all the children will be very happy collecting Ang Paus (Red Packets) while the parents are "out of their will" distributing them.

As I am "NOT MARRIED" and STILL YOUNG, I am the happier party. Going from one house to another, just collecting Red packets. Few weeks ago, Abby was asking me whether its the "year of the fish". I stared at her blankly, "What? Fish? Where got such thing as "year of the fish"?"

HER quick reply, "Don't have meh? Why everyone always say "Nian Nian You Yu"?" Still staring at her thinking whether she's pretending to be STOOPID or is she REALLY stupid. "Noooo, its the year of the Rat!"

"Ohhhhhhh! Really? " Then I confirmed that she is REALLY stupid, no joke!

Chinese Traditions, serve your parents some tea on the first day of CNY and you'll get a BIG ANG PAU! Big in the sense of the amount and not the size. Duh!

I want to end my CNY post with a.... A typical Chinese mother's reply to this statement, "WAH, Your kid so clever get so many A's"

Typical Chinese mother- NOLA simply study one (direct translation from Mandarin "Mei you la, luan luan tu de") HAHA Seriously is it that hard to compliment your own child? I DON'T THINK SO. SO, new generation Chinese parents remember to compliment your own child, even if its infront of MANY other people. Don't feel like as if you're showing off because you're not! Its the truth, if your kid do get lots of A's for whatever exams.

How I transformed and still is transforming.

2008-02-06T03:09:00.000+10:00

Like what Joe said, "ITS ONLY THE BEGGINIG!" But Unlike him, I did NOT put up a challenge, I did NOT train everyday in the gym to look the way I look now. All I do is play some basketball, watch what I eat and eat less than I used to. Mostly the "NOT EATING" part that helped me alot! But I still enjoy my food thus I don't force them out of my throat after consuming them.

Now that's the difference between me and an anorexic. "2007" indeed a good year.

A few people have noticed the weight loss, and I am indeed happy!

I look like an ass.. You should enlarge the picture of me and my mom, that was a HORRIBLE PICTURE! HORRIBLE I TELL YOU.

I'm glad I turned out the way I am now. I think there's still more that CAN be done but it takes more time. I'm going to be a whole other person when I get back in June, MARK MY WORDS.

Wondering where I am getting the motivation from? I have been fat since 1999 and throughout my whole teenage life (supposedly the most important years of your life). Now that I think of it, i think the most important years of your life should be your college years but that is beside the point.

Try never being liked because of the way you look (they don't say, but you know it). Try watching your friends going from one boyfriend to another, just because they are thinner. Well, and most importantly, try having a brother who sits at home do nothing and call you "FAT" all day long!

If all that does not work, try falling in love. HAHA maybe that will work.

As I have said, this is still the beginning of my "transformation". I have alot to do, in so little time.

Do watch!

2008-02-04T19:49:00.000+10:00

Holidays really suck. There's not much I can do and everyday I must think of something to do. The day I picked out Juno to watch is by far the most unsucky day of my holiday. Its such a good film and the soundtrack is awesome. OHMYGAWD, I love the music in this movie. I think I have to change the genre of my "favourite music" on FB or something. If you haven't watch it, i think you should. A definate MUST-WATCH!

My COE is not in yet. Still waiting for the DAMN people to send it in. I have been waiting for exactly a week, and i'm still waiting. Please come soon. AMEN!

Just like a Tattoo

2008-02-01T02:30:00.000+10:00

Today was a rather productive day, i finally ate sushi (after a long long time). After i went to the gym to get rid of what I ate and on top of that I went to play basketball as well. After basketball, I went straight to JP.

(The JP people. Ahh, my bestfriends)

See so much exercise in one day, basketball was a killer though. I've never ran SO much and played SO hard before. Siaw!

I can feel that I'm improving but still not enough. I'm finally not afraid of grabbing or blocking the people. One of the girl still thinks I suck and has no balls to hold on to the ball. Damn that girl pisses me off! *makes the spit sound* Geez..

Oh, oh, the gym person remembers me and she said I LOST WEIGHT! Oh, compliment of the day! Happyyyy! Well, to be frank, compliment or no compliment- I feel that I really did. Last year was my year, and this year is still going to be my year. By the end of this year, all my unwanted weight will GO AWAY! I'll still be gyming in Brisbane and I'll try find basketball kaki there too. When I come back in July, I'm suppose to play for "Teik Goldsmith". I think I'll end up watching the matches. HAHA

(Ah Theng, i think we had to take this picture like a few times cos they complain my eyes too small. Please I cant make it bigger, its just MY smile)

There's this thing in me that still feel like staying in Brunei despite the boringness and the same routine everyday. Home's still the best but give me a few more months I might end up loving my new home. =P

My hole-y experiences.

2008-01-30T21:41:00.000+10:00

At age 13, I pierced my very first piercing on the Cartillage pierced, i was rather proud of myself cos I was the first girl in my year to do it. And after that I just kept going and going until now, there is currently no more space in my ear to fit anymore.

At age 16, I got my tragus pierced (the inner part of my ear).

At 15, i got my first navel piercing. And I kept getting it pierced for 4 times due to allergy and grossness. Finally I have decided that it will be better if I remove it.
At age 18, I got my first tongue piercing. It was a rather random decision to get it pierced but I went through with it anyway. Talk to me and you will see something flying inside my mouth.

Thats the story.

Show me those nails.

2008-01-28T19:01:00.000+10:00

Not as planned, i stayed in Miri for one more day. The weekends were "alright", i had lots to drink, and overall I guess it was kind of fun just hanging out with a different group, getting to know them and etc.

The one more day that I stayed in Miri I was with Ah ting and we slept at Ke Xing's house coincidentally Del's sister so thus it was Del's house. You should've seen Del's face when I walked in. He was like half shock and half "EH?" haha Oh btw Del is my course mate in Curtin from Brunei. I had a LONG TALK with him about the good ol' times.

Today was Pedicure and Medicure day. They went to "Nail's Earth" in Imperial Mall, 4th floor. And they did their nails. Getting ready for CNY i think. I didnt do my nails cos you know i'm the nail kind of person. I'm more like the plain black nails kind of girl, no need so lala.

See the aluminium foiled fingers? HAHA Ah ting removing her 3D finger nails. And I thought they just tear it out. No!!! they slowly scrape one nail at a time.

Wen Yu and Ah Ting, while She removes her 3D nails. I think it took about 1 hour or more to remove her 3D nails.

Ke Xing so happy with her fingers and toes.

And then there was the magazine that help me keep the time going. I was not stuck in the zone when I was waiting for them to finish. Not like when I was at the airport that time, I was really super stuck in the zone. The clock never seem to move then..

After everything, they dropped me off to meet my dad so we can accept my QUT offer and pay my fees. And Ah Ting went to do her hair (extensions). That clearly will take another 2 hours or more. Phew, I'm back home. Oh home sweet home! And they will be back later tonight!

Her interpretation.

2008-01-26T16:25:00.001+10:00

The shirt says "YOU THINK I'M PRETTY YOU SHOULD SEE MY MUMMY"I read it out once for her and then her maid asked her,

Aunty- Do you know what it means chloe?

Chloe- It means if you wanna see my shirt, *points to her new shirt* you have to ask my mommy.

Aunty- No it means your mummy is pretty.

Chloe- NO!! it means you have to ask my mommyy

Me-Oooookay, whatever makes you happy..

JP was awesomeeee.. Tiff and I crazyyy water log ride was awesommeeee!

Pictures of the day.

2008-01-25T22:04:00.000+10:00

Dearest Sarah is leaving tomorrow to Melbourne, so today i hung out with her the whole day. Oh, I AM GOING TO BRISBANE QUT CONFIRM! After so long of waiting, it is finally confirmed so on Monday its down to Miri again to buy my airticket, pay my fees and etc. Reluctant as I am, I AM leaving. LEAVING LEAVING LEAVING! That is the word that have been stuck in my head all day. LEAVING LEAVING to somewhere across the ocean on another island altogether. Oh dear! And will only be back twice every year.. Life goes on doesn't it!

Tomorrow I'll be heading to Miri with the new gang for some drinks and fun! Oh, I NEED A DRINK!
Taken by Sarah.
Went over to Chloe's to pass her that shirt i bought for her from penang that says, "YOU THINK I'M PRETTY YOU SHOULD SEE MY MOMMY". Its really really really cute! HAHA I'm glad she loved it cos she wore it straight away. Below is our "angry" face. I forgot how well this kid poses!
Taken by Chloe. The kid's got talent.

And thus, the pictures that put a smile on my face.

Just another add to the slow day.

2008-01-22T18:48:00.000+10:00

Air Asia people- fjvgrwejdkfsbgufhdajdhfgaiu dhuyfgusahfiuahs ffhsdaiuhfias f (speaking in proper Malaysian accent)
Australian born Asian chick-I'm sorry, you have to speak slowly because...... (in her thick Australian accent)

Ooooooooo... I want my future kids to have an accent as well. It sounds really classy coming from an Asian. I WANT I WANT I WILL MAKE SURE THEY HAVE AN ACCENT! I WANT I WANT I WANT!

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

I'm still at the airport waiting. The good news is, I actually got through 7 almost 8 hours of waiting and my flight's boarding in half an hour's time. How awesome is that? Seriously, I loike it. My patience level is increasing by this slow torture.

After this, I hate airports and everything that's in it. I have basically when in and out of everywhere. In and Out of McDs, in and out of Coffee Bean, twice! And in and out of the airport. I'm tired and so bored! Do you know how i feel? I feel like a PATHETIC LOSER! Oh I managed to go to the toilet. Hooooray me!

I bought a magazine, again! I know I shouldn't but I figured I'll be bored in the plane. After that I guessed I'll be sleeping the whole way so the magazine really is a waste but you know what its a good magazine so i'm gonna keep it!

Finally my nightmare's over. I'm going home where there are NO snatch thieves, NO awesome shopping(less money to be spent). But I have a feeling when I reach home I am gonna be so busted for using up so much money from my mom's ATM! Oh oh.... What am I to do? What am I to do?

Okay, i think i'm going to make up so awesome bull crap to cover up. HAHA I'm pretty good at that, i think! DAMN IT, JOCELYN! Just wanna go home, the next time I'm on a flight, will be the time I leave for good. Ooooo the world of accents! Muahahahahahaha... my brother has an "accent". It goes to on mode only when he talks to English people or Old people, so i think he is faking it!

Boarding now. Love love!
Safe flight to me ;) Hoooray home!

Pathetic Loser?

2008-01-22T14:27:00.000+10:00

I feel like a pathetic loser, look like a pathetic loser and IS a pathetic loser. Oh man, i need to pee again. Damn you, bladder!

One tree hill season 5 is OUT!
Oh hail, one tree hill *bows down*
Currently at the 3rd epidsode.

Travelling alone.

2008-01-22T13:48:00.000+10:00

I used to love travelling alone, before I learnt about travelling alone. I used to wish I could travel alone whenever I'm travelling with my families. Well, travelling alone has its advantages and disadvantages..

Since all I can think of the disadvantages, why not I start with that..

You have to take care of your own bags and luggages at all times, keep an eye on it all the time cos you don't want it to go missing, do you?
When you are shopping, you always wish your mummy is with you so you don't have to worry about overspending because there's a bank right by you.
In the airport alone, when you really need to pee. There's no one to take care of your bags, you have to drag your bags into the toilet with you. That sucks!
When you're waiting for your flight, bored and alone. Oh how you wish there was people there to entertain you.
You look like a pathetic loser when you're eating alone in the airport. Heck, you look like a pathetic loser walking around the airport alone pushing the luggage thingy.

Now the advantages,

There's no one nagging at you all the time.
You can do what you like whenever you like.

And then there's no more I can think of. Now I think the best is still travelling with your friends. Yes, the next time I shall travel with friends. Never alone again!

I'm at the LCCT airport, KL currently. Waiting for it to be three thirty so I can check in and then be happy I dont have to drag so many baggages. And wait for my flight at five thirty. Oh God, FIVE MORE HOURS. What am I to do? What am I to do?

The internet seems to be working fine at McDonalds. Coffee bean's internet just ain't working! Pfft, I'll rather sit and wait at Coffee bean cos the atmosphere is much more quieter and there's a place I can charge my laptop there.

Oh well, life of a solo traveller (Just this once, and never again). I actually like company, y'know? Can't wait till I get home and hang out with my friends again. Oh, how I LOVE COMPANY!

Just another song.

"When I see you smile" by Bad English.

Sometimes I wonder how I'd ever make it through

Through this world without having you, I just wouldn't have a clue'

Cos sometimes it seems like this world's closing in on me

And there's no way of breaking free, and then I see you reach for me

Sometimes I wanna give up, I wanna give in, I wanna quit the fight

And then I see you baby, and everything's alright, everything's alright

When I see you smile, I can face the world, oh oh, you know I can do anything

When I see you smile, I see a ray of light, oh oh
I see it shining right thru the rain

When I see you smile, baby when I see you smile at me
Baby there's nothing in this world that could ever do

What a touch of your hand can do, it's like nothing that I ever knew

And when the rain is falling, I don't feel it, 'cos you're here with me now

And one look at you baby, is all I'll ever need, it's all I'll ever need

When I see you smile, I can face the world, oh oh, you know I can do anything

When I see you smile, I see a ray of light, oh oh

I see it shining right thru the rain

When I see you smile, baby, baby when I see you smile at me

Sometimes I wanna give up, I wanna give in, I wanna quit the fight

Then one look at you baby, and everything's alright, everything's alright

So right

When I see you smile, I can face the world, oh oh, you know I can do anything

When I see you smile, I see a ray of light, oh ohI see it shining right thru the rain, yeah

When I see you smile, I can face the world, oh oh, you know I can do anything

When I see you smile, oh yeah, baby when I see you smile, smile at me

Hauted.

2008-01-19T16:42:00.000+10:00

I can't seem to get the sight and Cheri's scream out of my head. Everytime I am in a quiet atmosphere, it haunts me. But when you put me in a situration where I have to remember it, I can't! I just hope this nightmare ends soon.

Cheri, my Superwoman

2008-01-18T20:38:00.000+10:00

I have to declare to the world that "Cheri is my SUPERWOMAN!"

I was sitting in the car, while Cheri went to pump petrol. The petrol thingy was not working properly so Cheri asked me to help her go and complain to the cashier inside while she was cleaning her car window.

*Note-In Malaysia you have to pump your own petrol.

I slowly walked to the cashier place. And just before I reached the handle, i heard a loud "OOOOOIIIIIIIIIIIIII" so I turned and look. The next thing I knew, Cheri was running after a motorbike and she was literally flyingggg when she was grabbing hold of the man sitting on the motorbike. I was shocked and everything happened so fast. When I ran over, the motorbike was gone and Cheri was knocked to the ground and she was walking towards me after that. Everything happened so fast, there was nothing much i could do plus the shockness. And I didnt really know what was happening and why Cheri was going after them. It hit me only seconds after when i saw stuff flying out! It was too late, i was too far away.

The two men on the motorbike opened the door of the car and grabbed my handbag and Cheri's. Being the superwoman, Cheri went to chase after them. Thankfully my wallet and my camera fell off the bag (I never zip my bag) so it fell out of the bag when Cheri was struggling with the man on that moving motorbike in the middle of the road. Cheri was badly injured, with scrapes everywhere. Her hands, legs, stomach, knees and everywhere. I could see that she was in pain.

We went straight to the police station just opposite of the petrol station to report but She was to badly injured so the police asked her to go to the hospital first. Everything lasted about two hours, the hospital and the police station.

It was a bad experience. But I Thank God, Cheri is fine and the important stuff i.e, my wallet and camera fell out of the bag. I will never forget that sight, lets just hope it does not haunt me.

I hate Malaysia and I never want to come back again. When i get my chance to get rid of my citizenship I WILL!!!!

So CHERI ONG YOU ARE OFFICIALLY MY SUPERWOMAN!
I love you forever!!!!
For now, I wanna go home. 3 or so days and I will be home, in my very safe country.

Even Pumping petrol in Malaysia is NOT safe!!! Tell me, what else is safe then?

I'm it.

2008-01-17T00:40:00.000+10:00

I love to eat: food. I'm willing to eat anything that I fancy, that I don't mind eating.

I hate to eat: the insides of any animal. Kidney, muscles, lungs, intestines... gross! Makes me want to puke! Bittergourd is really gross too.

I love to go: dancing. It gets you in the mood, especially with alcohol in your system. Best feeling in the world! Parties, clubbing, everything I LOVE! Beaches are wonderful too. Laying in the sun is awesome. Shopping, i think its a new obsession.

I hate to go: on a boat. All my sickness comes when i'm on a boat, a moving boat.

I love it when: everything goes my way, i know then i am living for a reason.

I hate it when: i am put in a situation where I have to make a decision, any decision.

i love to see: a beautiful sight. Thats when i take out my camera and start snapping away.

I hate to see: fights, its so disturbing and immature.

I love to hear: laughters, live band.

I hate to hear: unpleasent sounds like burps. It just ruins my mood and my appetite!

Abby tagged me, and i am trying to make it as simple as possible because I am in Penang now with Cheri next to me and I'm going for ladies night in a bit.

I am not gonna tag anyone because I am not into tagging people.

JOSS IS THE BOMB

2008-01-17T00:27:00.000+10:00

Because she is in Penang, shopping her ASS off!

Annoyed much?

2008-01-14T18:20:00.000+10:00

I don't understand how they can treat the them better than they treat me.

I don't understand how they get more respect from them than I do.

I don't understand how we all can be in the same room, and i will end up running out!

I don't understand how I am always the one being made fun of.

I don't understand how they are more like their sister than I am.

I am the kind of girl that don't like to be messed with.

When i have the "leave me alone" face, please just do me a favour, do everyone a favour and leave me alone.

I like to keep to myseld and do my own thing not crossing anyone's path.

Now I understand why I don't like to be at home or breathing the same air as they do.

Now I understand why I'm starting to dislike them.

Slowly starting to dislike them.

I don't give a crap, I'm flying in 4 hours.

And when i get back in a week, i'll be out with the new bunch everyday!

I hate

2008-01-13T20:07:00.000+10:00

going to the dentist.

I absolutely, absolutely hate it because the pain i have to bear afterwards is unbearable. At times it will be fine but at other times it hurts like hell. LIKE HELL I SAY!

Be creativ.

2008-01-13T15:44:00.000+10:00

I have never felt so IN place with one group of people before, despite the awkwardness, silence and etc.

Highlights of my Taiwan Trip

2008-01-10T01:15:00.000+10:00

Did you hear? I was in Taiwan for 12 WHOLE DAYS so obviously I took more than 1000 pictures so I chose a few pictures from a few places and a few happy moments of the trip. Thus the title, HIGHLIGHTS OF MY TRIP!

This is Xi Men Ting, if you must know its a shopping area. Shopping is everywhere here. Your left, right, up, down, back and front. They are everywhere. That is why this is my favourite place in the whole city. Everything is here, practically the whole Taipei. There's good food, good bubble tea, fast food, snack shops, cd shop, little shops and etc etc.

This is Taipei 101 from afar, this is the tallest building in the world. The shopping inside is ALL branded, not cheap. I went inside 101 the last trip. But this trip we didnt get to go in. I've always wanted to see the view from the top of the building. Feels like you are on top of the world.
This place is on top of the mountain. Its the place where they filmed, the drama series Corner with Love acted by Luo Zhi Xiang. The view in here is awesome i tell you AWESOME!
The house where they filmed at. I'm right OUTSIDE!
My favourite shopping Mall. The shopping mall is seperated into MANY MANY buildings and they are all connected to each other one way or another. I spent the whole afternoon here and I LOVED IT. I think i spent alot of money here. HAHA

Seeing cute doggies coming into restaurant and walking around the streets is definately one of the TOP highlights of my trip. They are all so cutesie and adorable.
Everyone loves ice cream especially when they are dipped in HOT CHOCOLATE in such a cold day. Haagen Dazs in Taiwan are mostly in a building on its own and it has three floors so HAagen Dazs is pretty BIG in Taiwan.
HOT CHOCOLATE WITH ICE CREAM AND FRUITS AND BISCUITS.

Christmas eve in Zhang Hui Mei's concert. This is my first concert out of Brunei and I must tell you it was one herll of an experience. I love concerts, especially happenings one. In this concert, i saw many other stars like Selina, Fan weiqi and etc. Ask me why I love concerts again? HEHE
I have never seen sooo many people in my life UNTIL New year's eve that is. But the stadium is really HUGE!

Buying a pair of converse shoe. Buying my one and only pair of shoes, I LOVE SHOES!
Going to KinMen is definately NOT a highlight of my trip but the beaches there was beauiful. The cold beach was BEAUTIFUL!
The one and only church in KinMen. So pathetic, only 11 people attend sunday service including the pastor.

BEACH IS BEAUTIFUL!

I have never seen so many bicycles in my life.. This was taken outside the National Taipei University.

The crowd on the streets during New Year's eve. I know it was about 600,000 people. Definately one hell of an experience.

It was all worth it when i saw the fireworks and the BIG BUILDING!
THE END!

Wanna visit Taiwan? Must go to the places I mention. It will definately make your trip MORE worthwhile.

Speechless.

2008-01-08T18:29:00.000+10:00

This is Katherine Moennig AKA Shane from the L word.

I dont know if you have notice but the actress below, Kristen Stewart is like the younger version of Katherine Moennig. Look at it! They are so alike. I think its the lips. What do you think?

NEWSFLASH: The new season of The L word has aired!

Jocelyn Strike.

2008-01-08T18:13:00.000+10:00

Writers STILL on strike.

Still NO Grey's Anatomy, Private Practise, House, etc, etc!

Just pay the writers what they deserve ALREADY!

Geez, hollywood is like where money is produced okay! I wanna watch MY SHOW!

But GUILTY AS CHARGED, I download too. *big smile*

Here's to A SHOT AT LOVE

2008-01-08T17:44:00.000+10:00

What do a girl who is on a holiday do?

Er, nothing but find more new shows to entertain their everyday.

Few days ago, I was hooked to a MTV reality show its called "A shot at love with Tila Tequila". Its rather entertaining watching 32 random people fighting for one girl's love. You might be wondering "Who the hell is Tila Tequila?" If you must know she is a model-cum-porn star-cum-Singer-cum-reality show actress-cum-famous myspace user. No wonder there's 32 people fighting for her love.

There's so much drama, between both the girls and guys. Oh, Tila Tequila is Bisexual so the 32 random people consists of both genders. Its a rather interesting show to watch. HAHA Well, lots of lesbian actions and straight people action in here. Get ready for the excitement (if you're going to watch it)! Well, at the end of the season she did find her "true love". I dont wanna spoil it for you. So after you watch it, we can discuss. HAHA!

There's something in her that reminds me of Kristin Kreuk. Maybe its her asian-ness. What do you think? But obviously, Kristin Kreuk is prettier.. and not a porn star. But then again, the media industry nowadays is so hectic, you will never know!

Cheers to the entertainment.

Can my application be any slower? Why is it so stressful to even think about it?

I'm afraid I'll go crazy if it doesn't go any faster.

Its JANUARY already!

I'm still alive, i won't be if I have to wait any longer.

My hopes & dreams.

2008-01-04T15:34:00.000+10:00

My 4 days late resolution, better than no resolution at all (at least it is earlier than my 2007 resolution). What have I been doing for the year 2007? What should I be doing for the year 2008? That is a question I want to know myself. I had three new year resolution last year, and this year I will not be greedy and keep it to three.

My 2007 resolution was to be more dedicated to Photography, do more sports and gyming, and read more books. Well, I did kind of complete the first one but i should NOT stop being dedicated and that is the only way I can improve my skills. Since I have been keeping up to that and still is keeping up to it then it is counted as RESOLUTION COMPLETED. Do more sports? hmmm, first three or four months of the year I did but after that I was lazy. So, RESOLUTION INCOMPLETE. The third resolution was a definate, I DID NOT DO so I don't really wanna talk about that! HAHA Oh, 2007 was definately a good year, MORE good years to come..

My first and very first RESOLUTION is to be more dedicated to Basketball. I started training yesterday and realized how much I am lagging and getting bad at it. So, yes new year-more training and get back to my old level or even better.

My second resolution is to build on my stamina. Running, Cycling or anything sports or gym related will do.

My third resolution is to be confident in whatever I do and be more mature in my thinking. Its time to let the little girl inside of me GO. I think I will make a better person if I keep up to this resolution.

What more can I ask for?

2008-01-01T19:06:00.000+10:00

WINTER TODAY,

SUMMER TOMORROW.

Today I'm complaining about the coldness, tomorrow i'll be complaining about the heat! So I shall not complain..

HAPPY NEW YEAR FELLOW READERS

WITH LOVE,

FROM TAIWAN.

(There was at least 600,000 people in the scene, plus me and we were all wow-ing away. It was beautiful)

P.s-Pictures above aren't mine. I have not uploaded pictures yet and i'm yet to do so and they are equally amazing. Looks like the whole building is exploding. It really did.

Finally, one-third of my old dreams came true.

I've been a SHE fan ever since I was in highschool. I was like their "BIGGEST" fan, I have albums one to nine all original. Yes, yes, i'm going to get the tenth one soon. But yet, i have never gotten the opportunity to attend their concert of any sorts. In conclusion, i have never seen them live. Gladly, i attended Ah Mei's concert and Selina was there too. Whooo~ and then i saw one third of the group LIVE.

I'm not that BIG of a fan anymore. But they're alright, i still listen to their songs and etc. I feel that their albums are worth buying the original.

its Claire Danes.

2007-12-31T00:29:00.000+10:00

and i absolutely adore her.

I watched her two latest movies, Stardust and Evening. And then i realised, "What an awesome actress she is!"

Claire Danes, I like- i like.

2008 is coming and I can't wait. 2007 was a good year and i have a feeling 2008 is going to be better. 2007 was indeed an awesome year with all the new friends i made and the new surrounding i was in. Oh, what would I do if things were different?

Two holidays down and one more to go. I'm still in Taipei, i just got back from JingMen the most boring place on earth. Thank God! Tomorrow is New Year's Eve and i'm going to celebrate it under the tallest building in Taipei. Whoooooo~ I love the city, i love the crowd!

Everyone is doing it..

It was tiring, but worth it!

My top 10 movies for the year of 2007

2007-12-24T11:39:00.000+10:00

Top 1- STARDUST

This is the best movie I have watched so far. Introduced by Tracy, Daphne and my Brother. Claire Danes have always been one of the actresses i oh-so-like as well as Michelle Pfeiffer, she is one of the most brillant actresses in Hollywood. Altogether, the movie was awesome. Its a movie you won't get bored of it in the middle. Every minute of the film is interesting.

Synopsis: A charmingly naïve boy from the English village of Wall travels to a magical, mythical world in search of the falling star that will help him win the heart of his true love in this fantasy adventure starring Charlie Cox, Claire Danes, Robert De Niro, Michelle Pfeiffer, Ricky Gervais, and Sienna Miller. For hundreds of years the massive cobblestone barrier that surrounds the sleepy English hamlet of Wall has kept the citizens of the village safe and secure from the malevolent supernatural forces that stir just outside its perimeter. When dashing Tristan Thorne (Cox) promises the fairest girl in the village, Victoria (Miller), that he will prove his love by bestowing her with a genuine falling star, his daring mission sends him on an adventure far outside the comfortable confines of Wall. In order to find the fallen star, Tristan will have to ascend the wall and venture deep into the forbidden heart of the fantastical realm known as Stormhold. Upon discovering that the meteorite he sought was in fact a beautiful girl named Yvaine (Danes), who has stumbled though space and is now being pursued by the King of Stormhold's (Peter O'Toole) sons (who long to use her cosmic powers to lay claim to the throne), Tristan vows to protect the otherworldly visitor at all costs. But the king's sons aren't the only ones in search of the luminous Yvaine; fearsome witch Lamia (Pfeiffer) has become convinced that the young girl's power can help her to achieve eternal youth and beauty. As Tristan makes his way through Stormhold on a mission to bring the star back to Wall, he will encounter a series of spectacular characters and creatures that will lead him to a fate he never imagined.

Top 2- TRANSFORMERS

Trannssforrmerrsss robotss in disguiseee... Everyone who watched this movie came out of the cinema smiling. The actions were incredibly awesome! Megan Fox was just an actress with small parts. "There are no small actresses just small parts" but yes, because of Transformers she became big and even MORE well-known.

Synopsis: The interstellar battle between the Autobots and Decepticons rains destruction down on planet Earth as director Michael Bay adapts Hasbro and Takara's popular Transformers franchise into a big-budget, live-action summer tentpole extravaganza in this ambitious sci-fi action feature starring Shia LaBeouf, Tyrese Gibson, Bernie Mac, John Turturro, Jon Voight, and, of course, Optimus Prime and Megatron. Long ago, on the planet of Cybertron, a massive, powerful alien race divided into two factions, the noble Autobots, and the devious Decepticons. They fought for the sole access to a talisman known as the Allspark, a cube with the capacity to grant infinite power, and eventually the Autobots smuggled it off the planet's surface, hiding it in an unknown location on Earth. Now, hundreds of years later, the Deceptacons have come looking for it, and if the Autobots don't find it first, the Earth will be enslaved or destroyed by the evil aliens' use of its massive power. The Autobots don't know where the cube was hidden, but the information may be stored in the most unlikely of sources, as a gangly young Earthling named Sam Witwicky (LaBeouf) who's just picked up his first car, has a strange connection to the Allspark's history, making him the unlikely ally of these enormous creatures, as they fight for humankind's survival and the chance to return home.

Top 3- GOOD LUCK CHUCK

Good luck Chuck is all about the comedy. It's so funny that at some parts you just can't stop laughing. Jessica Alba was as always VERY VERY HOT! What if there was a guy who could help you find your true love and all you had to do was sleep with him? Thats what good luck chuck is all about.

Synopsis: A serial dater afflicted with a lifelong curse of loneliness attempts to win the love of a clumsy-but-beautiful penguin expert in the one romantic comedy that proves true love never comes easy. As a ten year-old boy, Charlie (Dane Cook) broke the cardinal rule of spin-the-bottle by refusing to kiss a demented Goth girl. Crushed by the disheartening snub and determined to ensure that Charlie never finds true love, the vengeful brooder places a hex on the cowardly rule breaker that follows him well into his adult life. Flash forward twenty years and Charlie is a successful dentist who just can't seem to maintain a stable relationship. Sure he's had his fair share of one-night stands, but these days Charlie is just looking to find a nice girl he can settle down with. One day, while attending an ex-girlfriend's wedding, Charlie realizes that every girl he has ever dated has proceeded to find true love with the very next man they met. When word gets out that Charlie is something of a lucky charm for women looking to tie the knot, every women within a 100 mile radius comes calling for a one night stand; and while taking a bevy of beauties to bed is fun for the time being, it doesn't take long for Charlie to realize just how empty sex can be without true love. Upon meeting hard-to-get aquatic bird specialist Cam (Jessica Alba), Charlie begins to suspect that he has found the woman of his dreams. Cam is the kind of woman whom Charlie would be happy to grow old with, but what will come of their relationship if Charlie and Cam sleep together? Now, in order to ensure that Cam doesn't end up with the next guy she meets, Charlie will finally attempt to break the curse that has plagued him since childhood. Perhaps with a little help from smooth talking ladies' man and sympathetic best friend Stu (Dan Fogler), Charlie will finally be able to experience true happiness. Click here to read more.

Top 4-SHANGHAI KISS

Hayden Panettiere was very good in this film. The story was also very good. Its a Chinese-American film and I really like it because it reflects myself. Well, I'm not American Chinese but I am Bruneian/Malaysian Chinese and thats almost the same because we are Chinese NOT living in China. Funny and smart all at the same time.

Synopsis: A struggling Los Angeles actor who has never fully grasped his Chinese roots takes an eye-opening journey to Shanghai after inheriting his grandmother's home in this romantic comedy starring X-Men: The Last Stand's Ken Leung and Heroes's cheerleader Hayden Panettiere. Liam (Leung) is an aspiring Hollywood star who spends the majority of time picking up bar girls with his best friend Joe -- a starving writer who has yet to pen a proper screenplay. While Liam does share an innocent relationship with precocious 16-year-old Adelaide (Panettiere), she often comes off as more mature than he and the age difference between the pair is far too glaring to ignore. Upon receiving notice that he has inherited his grandmother's home in Shanghai, Liam throws caution to the wind and purchases an airplane ticket. Shortly after landing in China, Liam becomes smitten with beautiful local Micky (Kelly Hu) and gradually learns to embrace his Eastern roots. But it's difficult to exist comfortably between two cultures -- much less two women -- and before long Liam finds that in connecting with the past, he is simultaneously laying the groundwork for his future.

Top 5- THE ULTIMATE GIFT

This is one of the most touching story of the year. It makes you laugh and cry at the same time. Its a movie full of meaning and life. The actors and actresses are wonderful. I think everyone should watch it. Its definately a worth watching film.

Synopsis: Filmmaker Michael O. Sajbel explores the relationship between wealth and happiness with this spiritual-minded tale about a privileged young man who receives a most unexpected inheritance. Adapted from the best-selling book by author Jim Stovall, The Ultimate Gift opens as trust-fund baby Jason Stevens (Drew Fuller) prepares to receive a sizable inheritance from his late grandfather Red (James Garner). Though Jason is convinced that the money is about to come flowing in, he receives a sudden shock upon discovering that Red has instead decided to offer him something much more valuable than simple cash. Realizing that his spoiled grandson has lived a sheltered life in which he has always been handed the very best of everything, Red has devised a crash course in living comprised of 12 gifts that will challenge the arrogant young man in ways that he could never have imagined nor anticipated. In the weeks that follow, Jason will befriend a terminally ill child (Abigail Breslin) and her grief-stricken mother (Ali Hillis) while attempting to determine whether it is money or happiness that truly matters in life. Brian Dennehy and Lee Meriwether co-star in an uplifting drama from the director of The Ride and One Night with the King. Click here to read more.

Top 6- ENCHANTED

Every little girls dream is to be a princess and live happily ever with prince charming in the castle. If that is still your dream then you really should take some time and watch this film. I thought it was a very smart film because of the mix of the happily ever after world with the real world. The actress Amy Adams, was simply stunning and she was very real. Just like how a princess from another world would be.

Synopsis: Classic Disney animation meets contemporary urban chaos when a frightened princess is banished from her magical animated homeland to modern-day New York City in a romantic comedy penned by Bill Kelly (Blast from the Past), directed by Kevin Lima (Tarzan), and featuring music by composer Alan Menken and lyricist Stephen Schwartz. Princess Giselle (Amy Adams) lives in the blissful cartoon world of Andalasia, where magical beings frolic freely and musical interludes punctuate every interaction. Though Princess Giselle is currently engaged to be married to the handsome Prince Edward (James Marsden), her fate takes a turn for the worse when the villainous Queen Narissa (Susan Sarandon) banishes her to the unforgiving metropolis of New York City. As the cruelty of the big city soon begins to wear down the fairy-tale exterior of the once carefree princess, the frightened Giselle soon finds herself falling for a friendly but flawed divorce lawyer (Patrick Dempsey) whose kind compassion has helped her to survive in this strange and dangerous new world.

Top 7- RATATOUILLE

A rat talking show, who would be interested? Well, I really enjoyed it and I thought it was worth watching in a cinema. Its about a rat who's very into cooking and stuff. Its also very real, in the sense that the rat can only communicate with his own kind but not with the humans and vice versa. BEWARE YOU WILL FEEL VERY HUNGRY WATCHING THIS SHOW, eventhough its animation based but it looks super real especially the food.

Synopsis: A rat named Remy dreams of becoming a great chef despite his family's wishes and the obvious problem of being a rat in a decidedly rodent-phobic profession. When fate places Remy in the city of Paris, he finds himself ideally situated beneath a restaurant made famous by his culinary hero, Auguste Gusteau. Despite the apparent dangers of being an unwanted visitor in the kitchen at one of Paris' most exclusive restaurants, Remy forms an unlikely partnership with Linguini, the garbage boy, who inadvertently discovers Remy's amazing talents. They strike a deal, ultimately setting into motion a hilarious and exciting chain of extraordinary events that turns the culinary world of Paris upside down. Remy finds himself torn between following his dreams or returning forever to his previous existence as a rat. He learns the truth about friendship, family and having no choice but to be who he really is, a rat who wants to be a chef. Click here to read more.

Top 8- FREEDOM WRITERS

Its a very touching movie about how a teacher is devoted to her student. About how she helped the students that nobody had faith in. She even lost her husband on the way and she had to take 2 other jobs besides teaching so she could buy her students brand new books to read. She allowed them to read stories like "Diary of Anne Frank" which they could relate to because of their lifestyle. At that time, there was war against the races so there was alot of killing and none of the races get along, they only hang out with their own kind. Very touching, and at a few parts you can't help but shed your tears. Its so amazing how much a teacher is willing to go through for her students. This is based on a TRUE STORY about a woman called Erin Gruwell who opened a centre called Freedom Writers.

Synopsis: Assigned the thankless task of teaching freshman English at a gang-infested Long Beach, Calif., high school, a 23-year-old teacher resorts to unconventional means of breaking through to her hardened students in director Richard LaGravenese's adaptation of Erin Gruwell's best-seller The Freedom Writer's Diaries: How a Teacher and 150 Teens Used Writing to Change Themselves and the World Around Them. Her students had been written off, and her chances of succeeding scoffed at, but Erin Gruwell (Hilary Swank) wasn't about to go down without a fight. In using the writings of Anne Frank and Zlata's Diary: A Child's Life in Sarajevo, Gruwell was able to teach her students not only the basis of the English language, but compassion and tolerance as well.

Top 9- ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS

Only chipmunks who can talk are cute. HAHA i think most of you would agree with me. This movie is hillarious and guranteed alot of laughter along the way. If you are into music, singing chipmunks would be okay for you. They have wonderful voice well i mean style of singing. The chipmunks are on a whole new adventure with fame and family.

Synopsis: Alvin, Simon, and Theodore are back in director Tim Hill's computer-animation/live-action hybrid following the further adventures of the world's most adorable singing trio. Songwriter Dave Seville (Jason Lee) has been struggling to gain recognition in the music industry for some time, and despite the fact that his former college roommate (David Cross) is now a high-profile powerbroker at Jett Records, Dave still can't manage to get a break. Things soon start to look up, however, when Dave discovers three singing chipmunks hiding out in the branches of a Christmas tree in Jett Records' world headquarters. Realizing that these woodland crooners cold prove to be his ticket to the big time, Dave does his best to transform Alvin (Justin Long), Simon (Matthew Gray Gubler), and Theodore (Jesse McCartney) into the next great pop sensation. As adorable and talented as they may be though, these bouncy little critters aren't quite domesticated just yet; they still have a wild streak in them a mile wide, and it isn't long before Dave's life, home, and career are in utter chaos. But staying mad at such lovable little creatures is next to impossible, no matter what kind of mischief they might get into. Click here to read more.

Top 10- DISTURBIA

How would you feel if your neigbhbour was a serial killer. This movie is exciting and you never know whats going to happen next. It makes you aware of the film and your surrounding. This is one of my favourite thriller of the year.

Synopsis: Salton Sea director D.J. Caruso travels from the shore to the suburbs for this suspenseful tale of a high-school senior who suspects that his neighbor is a notorious serial killer. Kale (Shia LaBeouf) is a high-school senior who has yet to come to terms with the fact that his father is gone, the tragic victim of a fatal accident. As Kale's mother (Carrie-Anne Moss) struggles to pay the bills by picking up extra shifts at work, her son's behavior grows increasingly erratic. When an altercation at school finds Kale placed under court-ordered house arrest, the homebound student teams with newly arrived girl-next-door Ashley (Sarah Roemer) to investigate the suspicious neighbor (David Morse) whom Kale believes to be an elusive and wanted serial killer. Their attentions focused intensely on the man they believe to be a murderous maniac hiding in broad daylight, Kale and Ashley trespass down a dangerous path while attempting to discern whether his suspicions are grounded in fact or just a combination of deep depression and suffocating cabin fever.

He's Everywhere..

2007-12-22T22:43:00.000+10:00

Goh Kiat Chun, or am I suppose to call him Wu Zhun? Anyways, he is really EVERYWHERE in Taiwan. He's on TV adverts, posters and etc. He's currently the new face of 7-11 in Taiwan so you definately see his face every single day and also his "band/group" just released a second album recently so its like, you know how its like when someone's album are just release.. Its hard not to want to see his face but it brings pride to Brunei so its cool. In Brunei, his face is NOT even everywhere. Well, THANK GOD its not!

PS- Taiwan is not as cold as I thought it was. The temperature is like the air conditioner in your room. Oh man, i expected very cold. Damn it! Well, just an update for the readers of all sort, I'm enjoying Taiwan to the maximum and eating like God-knows-what.

Singapore's next BIG thing

2007-12-22T22:33:00.000+10:00

This is Alicia Pan, she is Singapore's next BIG thing. Her voice is awesomely powerful and she's also very pretty. Celebrity material! She has already made it to Taiwan but she's not BIG yet. She is the singer for Breaking Free (Asian Version) and she has 3 singles released in Taiwan. Click here to listen to her awesome music.

I love her voice.

Happy Birthday Sarah Ong!

2007-12-20T19:35:00.000+10:00

SARAH ONG, I've known you since like forever. I cannot believe that we're both 18, we're NOT teenagers anymore. We're in that zone. You know the age between 18 and 21. Where you dont know whether you're an adult or a teenager. OMG! we've been through alot, had multiple sleepovers. I've shared lots of things with you and I trust you with my whole heart. You have indeed been a great and wonderful friend. I believe we will still be friends even though we are old grandmas. I love you woman and have a happy happy birthday!

(these are your red face pictures from that night. Just like you requested!)

Looking foward for an awesome time later this afternoon.

People closest to my heart

2007-12-20T19:24:00.000+10:00

Funny face Attack!!

Indeed they are the people closest to my heart. The ones i talk to, the ones i take advice from and the ones that i can have fun with.

Just like the sisters I never had. I love you guys plus Chloe.

Even the little one could pull a funny face. She's too adorable.

Cliches

2007-12-17T19:20:00.000+10:00

As a media student, i have finally learn that i should observe television shows, movies and etc closely, VERY CLOSELY. Did you know that every Taiwanese and Korean shows are similar, well the similar ones of course. I mean the style in every Taiwanese show is the same and the style in EVERY Korean show is the same.

TAIWANESE TEEN DRAMAS:

Did you know that 98% of Taiwanese teen dramas have happy ending?

Okay, let me break it down to you.

A girl meets a guy (do know it can be vice versa) accidentally. They don't see eye to eye on anything at all. They fight alot, become friends and fight even more. Its either one have a partner or someone has a crush on one of them and they are so in love with another. After that, something happen and they become single so they start falling for each other but they still fight alot but the "falling for each other" part becomes more obvious (one will always be looking after another). In between, a new "perfect" guy or girl comes in the way and they become jealous. But then, at the end, at the very end, they either get married or you know, get together and become happy.

There's always ONE perfect episode in between (where the guy and the girl spend their time together and is happy).

The LAST episode, towards the end always have something like, "5 years later" or etc.

KOREAN DRAMAS

Did you know that 9 on a scale of 10 korean dramas someone will definately die?

A guy meets a girl. At first they dont like each other but as they spend more time together, they fall head over heels for each other. There's always one other perfect candidate trying to steal them away from each other. And then towards the end one finds out one has a sickness and distant themselves from their love one. Then the other one does not give up on the love and one day the sick one faints in the arms of the other and the other find out bout the sickness and they spend their last days together and then the one will DIE.

At least one person would have a deadly sickness (sometimes it gets cured, alot of times it doesnt).

In the first few episodes, they will always show the childhood of the main character.

And then all the audience in front of the television WILL CRY! So people who watches numerous Korean dramas, did you know you're crying at the same thing! Its all the SAME...

A definate is that there is always one thats rich and the other that is not.

Am i right?

P.s Thats why im so reluctant to start on any taiwanese or korean drama. They are so Cliche! I like it better when i dont know whats going to happen.

Everyday, happy hour

2007-12-17T19:09:00.000+10:00

Ever since my brother got back, EVERYNIGHT is like happy hour at home. Its awesome! I found my new favorite drink, i think its called Rum Peach something. I like to call it the "fluffy" drink. Because there's egg white in it and that fluffs up the whole drink. Yes, if you must know i drink almost everynight.

Besides drinking everynight, i hang out with Tiff&Trace every single day since the day they got back. I missed them! We would do random stuff. Like once, we brought their little cute cousins to jungle gym and we just sat there while they play. Tracy was pretty funny she played too but i think she got attacked by the little kids. HAHA but mostly i just hang at their house, in their very awesome TV room.
and then there's my other best friend Sarah Ong! HAHA I have to speak with her in Mandarin because she's gonna start Mandarin class next year. Good Luck! haha Oh, as you can see below I still love playing with her camera. I guessed nothing have changed in THAT category.
And that Ladies and Gentleman is what i have been up to for the past last week. How bout you, my fellow readers of all kinds is your holiday as awesome? Well i hope so, holidays should be awesome.

"Its the greatest time of the year", says Santa Claus

And I'm going to degree

2007-12-15T17:34:00.000+10:00

(Stolen from Accyee but i wonder where she stole it from)

Like what abby said, people do think we are stupid and thats why we're taking media(I have had a few encounters). Since the beginning i thought thats a whole load of bullcrap. Just because we don't do Maths and Accounts that does not mean we are stupid. We are smart enough to do what we like and thats handling cameras and running around interviewing people, plus its fun.

I finally got to see my results, i can bet that i did better than most people (thats not doing media and made fun of us, the media people before). We're smart with words, thats what we are(not everyone is smart enough to take media). I can proudly said that I shockingly got 4 Distinctions and 2 Credits. Ha! All the hard work actually got me through. Studied hard and then you'll get to play hard.

Kudos to everybody. Now i can have a more blessed holiday!
I made my mama proud.
And i'm going to degree but i aint taking media in degree (i know, sad to say. I really liked media).

Signing off,

GEEK FOR LIFE(GFL)

Be Enchanted..

2007-12-12T12:41:00.000+10:00

Today is kind of a crazy day. I watched two movies in a row, because Tracy&Tiffany thought that the ticket is super cheap... compared to Australia it is! Our first movie was at 145 (Enchanted) and the next was at 330 (Heartbreak Kid) so we had to rush to the second movie. HAHA after the second movie, i saw Sarah came out of the cinema. Whoo~ she just came back yesterday..

People have confuse the Enchanted actress with Borat's fiancee. Picture on the left is Isla Fisher, Borat's Fiancee and picture on the right is Amy Adams, the actress from Enchanted. TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE! =) Now i know where Amy Adams is from, she is from "the wedding date", the sister who gets married at the end.
Borat actually looks normal in real life. Marry-able! Below is a picture of Borat and his fiancee. Happy couple indeed but yes, after watching Borat (a bit of it). I'm kinda turned off! HAHA

So, anyways today i had a long day. I think its because i spent the whole day just watching movie. Hmm, kinda tired plus i got woken up by my mom really early. She told me something i didnt find important at all. I mean it can wait till i wake up, you know? Ughhh, that really annoyed me.

Its still raining.

Cheers.

Mix that drink!

2007-12-11T14:13:00.000+10:00

My other brother is back with my parents, and you know what that means........ Well, it kinda means that now i have my own personal bartender at home. If you must know, he is currently a bartender in Brisbane and when he came back yesterday he brought back all his fancy bartendering tools as well as so many bottles of alcohol.

I am gonna learn how to make a few good cocktails from him so i can make good cocktails in the future. Ahhhh, how awesome? Tonight, is the start.. now whats happening in the kitchen is:

Boiling all the tools-Cleanliness is top!
Making of the syrup
Making of the Lemon juice

And the bartender for the evening have gone to get more supplies (Yes, i'm smiling!). Oh, and he is also showing off about how he's a graduate and etc. IF you must know, NO he did not take bartendering as a major. HAHA people always get confuse when i tell them my brother is a bartender. He's following my mom's footsteps, he's a hotel person! HAHA

So, wondering what I have been doing during the holidays? Er, Sleep, Eat, Online, Hang out! To be more specific:

I have been sleeping late and waking up late as usual.
Planning hanging hours with different friends at different times.
Watching alot alot of TV shows, like Gossip Girl, Chuck, Smallville, Heroes, How i met your mother, Greys' anatomy and etc.
Catching up with the different friends.
Eating a hell. Well, not that much. I still Eat to live OKAY? Not, Live to eat!
Using my wireless to the advantage.

Have you heard? The Grey's Anatomy writers are on strike, due to the low pay or whatever. So the last episode of the season is episode 10, for now. There won't be a 11 unless the producers pay the writers a little bit more. I suggest they pay them a little bit more or else there are going to be angry fans, LIKE ME!

Thankfully, i have the other TV shows to keep me occupy. Oh! Im starting on LOST again. I was indeed VERY LOST when i stopped halfway of Season 3. I know you guys DONT like words, but i have no pictures yet. Nothing interesting happen just the same ol' hang outs..

11 more days till i go for my Christmas and New year's holiday and 6 days till my results come out. I can't wait! Then, i will know for sure where i'm getting into. In a way, im very scared of my results but I must have confidence. I HAVE CONFIDENCE, i think!

Been over at Tracy's since yesterday when she got back and then this afternoon as well. I was suppose to go out with AbbyK for ice cream BUT her mama says she shouldn't eat too much ice cream and its raining and her mama doesnt want me to drive. DAMN THE RAIN! It have been raining everynight since forever. I super HATE RAINS.

Oh, what did my mom get me? PERFUME WAS ON SALE! What did you think she got me? HAHA Use your imaginations.

Cheers.

Wachaaa... its a party!!!

2007-12-10T11:51:00.000+10:00

Pheeeeewitttt!!!! I just got back from going out with Sarah and Becky. HAHA I likeyy hanging out with them cos lots of catch up and stuff. My parents will be back from Brisbane later in the evening.. YAY! After being a week at home alone, i really dont like it. HAHA I dont like having to eat out and having to pay for it myself.

Hmmpff, Tracy will be back today and as well as Abby. Yesterday, i sleptover Cait's house cos I didnt wanna sleep by myself again and also lots of catch up time. Whoo~ Catch up time is always the best isn't?

P.S- Still Uni-less, Room-less and everything-less.

Take my worries away, please?

2007-12-09T09:47:00.000+10:00

There's nothing i can do now about my Uni applications. All i can do is wait for my results, send them to the university then decide.

"I dont know why you're so worried, no one knows where they are going yet. People usually know by January." says mama.

".... i know you wanna say it, just don't!"

2007-12-08T15:44:00.000+10:00

The amount of compliments i have received about "how i lost weight" have not done me any good. The more compliments i receive, the more i eat. So people, lets get one thing straight here. DONT COMPLIMENT ME! I know how much you wanna say it, just don't say it. You know, you can say it when i lose EVEN MORE WEIGHT and when i get thin and forever stay thin.

Tomorrow, i'm starting my "drinking fibre every night" diet as well as i'm going try go jogging and also run up and down the stairs till i sweat.

OMG! I havent exercised in ages and i actually don't know where to start. I cannot remember the last time i sweat because it was "THAT LONG TIME AGO".

I'm going to do the usuals, eat less and drink more water.

Lesson #1

"My mama taught me not to look confuse even though half of the time I am."

Confidence is what maketh a woman.

If i was just confident enough, i would make every man crawl.

But, i guess with this kind of thinking, thats why i'm NOT!

Yes, i'm a real-life Bitch, if you must know.

My American Idol

2007-12-07T22:55:00.000+10:00

My close friends would know that "I absolutely DO NOT watch American Idol". I never thought I would be a fan of any American idol but years ago i swallowed my thought and i actually think some of them are pretty talented (Duh! thats why they were the finalists of a Singing show).

Kelly Clarkson's "Breakaway" blew me away, and that whole album is just awesome.

I was never really into country music(Dixie Chicks) but "Jesus take the wheel", "Some hearts" and the latest hit song from Enchanted "Ever Ever After". I had to restructure my first sentence. I am very into country music because of Carrie Underwood.

You have to admit, she's the hottest among the three idol and she's not even the winner for her season. Yes, ladies and gentleman I think Katherine McPhee is HOT! haha Oh and she's so "over it", over not winning her season. Oh i absolutely love "over it". It came out, and a year later i was hooked on it. HAHA

He was sent "home" but "its not over" because now he is so damn famous. OMG! Chris Daughtry is my first love. He has an awesome voice and he's pretty hot, well his baldness made him hotter. I have fallen in love with his album because every song is so good.

Everybody loves rhymes, and suprises.

2007-12-06T15:20:00.000+10:00

One, two, buckle my shoe

Three, four, knock at the door

Five, six, pick up sticks
Seven, eight, lay them straight
Nine, ten, a big fat hen

Eleven, twelve, dig and delve
Thirteen, fourteen, maids-a-courting
Fifteen, sixteen, maids in the kitchen

Seventeen, eighteen, maids in waiting

Nineteen, twenty, my plate's empty

P.s- Pictures from that day's suprise for Grace.

Everything happens for a reason, i think.

2007-12-06T10:16:00.000+10:00

I got into an accident yesterday. It was not my fault, it was that fucking old man's fault. He fucking does not know how to drive. I was so pissed off! I even had an eye witness who stopped by and told me if i needed a statement or anything he'll be there to help. Gee, thanks! I hate that stupid old man. I was on my straight road and he randomly just turned out of the junction. Dude! you dont do that..

and,

Aaarghh, i have been so stressed out since the day my mom told me to consider going to Brisbane instead. Its not a bad thing, but i really want to go to Melbourne.

Well, application problems. The condition of going to Monash is i must sit for an Ielts test and score 6.0 and i must change the offer to a real offer as well as accept the offer by 31st Jan.

Bad news is the next Ielts test in Brunei isn't until the 26th of Jan. There's no good news behind this bad news. I really wish there was but up to this point, THERE ISNT ANY GOOD NEWS.

I have asked the application lady to try ask Monash whether i can extend the offer or something because if you have noticed i really really want to go to Melbourne. Everyone is there, everyone closest to my heart is there.

Please God, make it happen.
(if i'm really meant to go, i know He can make it happen)

Pfft, so much for learning how to be "independent". At the end of the day, i always mess things up!

A declaration of "independence"

2007-12-05T05:12:00.000+10:00

MY PARENTS ARE OFF TO BRISBANE FOR MY BROTHER'S GRADUATION AND I'M OFFICIALLY HOME ALONE!

Well, i was home alone till last night-my big bro came back from KK, he's going back there again this weekend and i soooo totally wanna go there as well =P But with him around, its still counted as "alone" so yea! Technically i'm still home alone.

Oh, yesterday there was this suprise thingy for Grace: the pictures are still in my camera so i will post that up a bit later.

I WILL.

2007-11-28T18:00:00.000+10:00

"... at the end of the day, you go back to how you started off- alone and sad."

I hate being treated this way, ignored and not acknowledged. I hate people who get too caught up with their own world that they forget about their friends who have been there since the beginning. I hate it when people pretend to don't know whats happening when they very clearly do. There's so many i hates but yet people still do them right in front of me.

Funky day out

2007-11-28T16:58:00.000+10:00

a taste of the sun in Jesselton

2007-11-28T16:43:00.000+10:00

Friday morning- We arrived at KK. And that afternoon, we went shopping. Quicksilver, Roxy shop at warisan square is at 50% discount so everything is half price. I know right? I bought myself a black handbag, Joyceanne bought me a wallet and Far bought me a skirt. Salleh and Cheri was in there for i think at least an hour an a half. It was crazily awesome! Friday night, we went to Shen, its a hyatt club and its crazilly classy! I like it. I met up with my brother there and yea, he was showin off his dance moves.

We stayed here. Yes, a backpackers' louge. Its my first time sleeping at some place like this. Good experience indeed!
That walk down Warisan square.
Saturday Morning- We jumped on the boat and headed to the island. First things first, i hate boats and i'm never going on one again unless its a huge cruise then its fine. Oh, my day was made better when i got my chance to tan the day away. I absolutely adore tanning, its so fun! Well, it was only Cheri and I was tanning so yea we had our own fun, and they had their own fun.

In the process of tanning, we grabbed pinker and took many many pictures of ourselves.
My model of the day, none other than Cheri Ong herself.
Looking back, and enjoying just like the good old times.

Group picture, Vito, Bertha, Azfar, Van, Cheri, Salleh and Hazim.

Let me say it really clearly, i hate boats, i hate boats, i hate boats, i hate boats one million times!

Saturday night- we went to a bar opposite Warisan Square and after that we went to "bed", its an awesome club. Over at that club, I met Jay's friend, Tessa. She's o-so-hot! And yea, the clubbing scene in KK is awesome! I would love to go back one day.
Vanessa and I at cock&bull the bar just next to bed.My media senior, Aaron Chin Soon Hwa; Mr bald guy!

Azfar Zubri, Mr dood.
Cheri Ong, my paramour.
CherLeh, the tiny couple.

Salleh, the crazy batu.
"Bed"
Sunday morning-A day out with Joyceanne and her sister. The rest of the group head to Mt. KK, i was too lazy and long car rides that goes round and round and round isn't my thing so i decided to hang with Joyceanne. In the afternoon, i ended up falling asleep in her hotel room. HAHA funny story.

Sunday night-After they reached KK town, i went to meet up with them and yea, they were telling me about their adventure and what i missed.

That night we didnt have anywhere to stay and we werent planning to sleep cos our flight is early in the morning. Therefore, we went to J.Jay's empty apartment to rest, shower and etc.

This is Neilson. He is one em fellow Curtiners.

This is Samson, the Curtin graduate.

This is J.Jay, our host for the evening. Oh, in the apartment i met his cousin Jennifer Pederson. She is so hot! HAHA yea, all his friends are hot.
A view of Jesselton from Jay's balcony. Its so beautiful!
The jiwangness actually started in KK after the movies and it never stopped till today. Cheri and I were trying to hyped up ourselves in the apartment to prevent us from falling asleep. HAHA We jumped around, catfight each other, piggy back each other and etc. HAHA good times, crazy times.

Piece of art. Enjoy Kuching Cheri Ong and i will see you again in Jan. I miss you tremendously! Every trip has to come to an end.

Thanks KK people for being so hospitable, like JunKiat, Aaron, J.Jay and etc. Jesselton, i will be back!

The rain never came to clear up my tear

2007-11-27T02:03:00.000+10:00

Today I said my final goodbyes to Ah Bong and Cheri and J.Jay. I have never cried so much in my whole life. I just want you both to know, you guys are really important to me and I am glad i got to know you guys.

It was like a funeral in Villa. HAHA I was crying so much in the car. =(

I guess this is where life takes us to.
Everyone is holding on to that precious memory that is spent together.

I know i will never let go of mine.

HIGHLIGHTS of my evening.

2007-11-23T21:45:00.000+10:00

My last night has finally arrived.

As much as I wanna leave this little town, there is still a part of me that don't.

I wanna spend more time with my friends that i made just this year.

One year is not enough or in some case, one sem is not enough!

But deeply I know, friendships like ours is going to last a lifetime (even though we are in different continents)

The media gang..

And these pictures truly shows that i have left a part of me in this little town
I will be back! I'm not sure when, but I will.

P.s-I will miss you, each one of you!

(I almost cried after i hug ah Bong and Kedung goodbye)

Not your average teenager

2007-11-23T05:08:00.000+10:00

Do you really think of me as a bad influence?

Well, i'm not!

I'm just not your average teenager!

P.s-Exams in an hour, and it will be over.

With Love, xoxo

2007-11-22T06:20:00.000+10:00

HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT GOSSIP GIRLS?

If you haven't, i'm going to tell you about it. The show is based on a book and it is awesome and the cast are all hot. ALL SO HOT!

If you liked laguna beach or the OC or whatever then you really should download it and watch. If you don't like shows like that then you SHOULD download it even more because it is that good and that much better.

P.s-I was so wasted yesterday, you cannot imagine. For 1 hour, i thought i lost my wallet and i almost broke. Now, i know how important it is to me. Oh, why was i wasted? Van and Fids came over we had our own small drinking party and after that we went over to the australians house to crash THEIR party. It was awesome, hanging out with them for the last time. HEH!

Dinner on the 1st day of exams

2007-11-20T18:04:00.000+10:00

The "awesome" Cheri Ong cooked an "awesome" dinner for us. Her exams is over, since last week! So, all she has to worry for now is cooking since she bought a whole load of food back.

I'm so full now that i'm fasting tomorrow.

(P.s-If you think it doesn't look good. Then you must know it taste better than it looks)

I don't think i'll end up sleeping tonight, i have so much to study in one night.

Happy Birthday Stinky

2007-11-20T14:16:00.000+10:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAITLYN THE BUM!

(the one on the farthest right)

I MISS YOU AND I HOPE YOU HAD FUN ON YOUR 21ST BIRTHDAY. I LOVE YOU AND I'LL SEE YOU WHEN I GET BACK.

MUAHS

Crash and Burn!

2007-11-20T14:12:00.000+10:00

What do people do after exams?

Be happy?

I burned my business management notes. And its not even after exams yet.

HAHA

Well i faced my worst nightmare and now i burned my worst nigtmare.

So it wont come back to haunt me anymore.

Hip hip hooray!

Hip hip hooray

An awesome day indeed.

So Sally can wait, she knows its too late....

2007-11-19T13:57:00.000+10:00

Awesome like a possum,
I have never studied like this before, not even all the years combine together.

Now, i'm just going to pray and leave it to God(and read through).

Yesterday's Pre Exam Party was so awesome, so crazy!

Two days before exams and dancing,

One day before exams and chilling.

I know I can do it, I hope I can do it!

Don't drink and drive, SMOKE AND FLY.

I wanna flyy after exams.

P.s Abby K is back in Brunei tonight, i also want to go back-I wanna ditch exams and go home!

Another summer day has come and gone away...

2007-11-18T14:23:00.000+10:00

Sleep when the Sun comes out,

Study when the Sun goes down,

This is my kinda life now.

IT MUST GO BACK TO NORMAL ONCE EXAM START.

If not i doubt i can wake up for my paper.

Thank God my earliest paper is at 12 noon but not earlier than that.

Clubbing two days before exam. Whoot!

Slept at 730 this morning and woke up at 530PM. HAHA

I fell in love with the DeeJay, deejay.

2007-11-17T03:13:00.000+10:00

Cold burger and fries,

diluted 7up.

Life of a Uni student who is stress and having exams.

I slept at 630am yesterday, but unfortunately i did not get to wake up late in the afternoon. When i was in dreamland, I received a call.

Oh, its my mum&dad.

They woke me up and took me out for lunch, shopping and etc.

After that, i went to campus to look at my internal marks. Pretty hight for WRS.

And then, i got home and "peng" and went back into dreamland.

Got woken up by my housemates who came back with McDs.

I studied for 2 hour plus and now i'm back at Hazim's place to look for both Salleh and Cheri.

Dude, they're debating!

I'm just blogging away. HA! I have a feeling i'm going to sleep late again, I will continue studying later.

I'm just not in the mood.

The grass is greener on the other side

2007-11-16T02:06:00.000+10:00

Talk about not wanting to blog for a while anymore.

Yes, yes, i'm back here again blogging more.

Yesterday, i slept at 630 in the morning and woke up at 3 that afternoon. I know, my biological clock is so screwed up! I like to think of it as "I'm studying hard". i am, i am, i truly am.

Exams is in exactly 4 days time.

I finally met up with Janet for dinner after like so long. We stay like in the same zone, senadin but yet we never run into each other, like at all. It was definately great catching up session and she met my psycho housemates.

Now, i'm attempting to study and Kenneth's over so i'm leaving for Petronas like now, to buy chocolate.

I just got back from Petronas! Now, i'm randomly at Siamese Secrets. We're supposedly here to "study". And we were craving for Pizza.

i wanna go to the US, i really do.

i want, i want!

Geek For Life

2007-11-15T19:56:00.000+10:00

Its 1:56 Am and i'm still attempting to study my business management. I did my laundry an hour ago, i think its time i go get it.

I've been focusing so much on Business and WRS. I think i should at least start a bit on my Malaysian Studies eventhough its 0 credit points. Was out with Kenneth and Abby earlier today, he was "hungry" and he wanted us to go eat with him. We were suppose to go to Annie's but Thank God it was close and I was craving for McD's hot fudge so he brought us to Parkson. Thanks Ken!

I was just watching heroes and how i met your mother. Heroes, as exciting as ever. How I met your mother, as funny as ever. These are the two shows i recommend, go download and watch it. Now, now, now.....

Ali Larter, i think she's the hottest on heroes. She's so hot! Even though, i feel that her character is abit useless on Heroes, i mean seriously who wants to watch someone with split personality? But since she's so hot, then okayla. Have you watch the latest episode? Episode 8, its so good!

And she would be Robin (Cobie Smulders) from How I met your mother. She's so hot as well. OMG! *burst into flames* oh, if you havent watched how i met your mothers before? Its like friends, funny and smart! If you are watching it, episode 8 is out!

I'm so stress about my business management (my internal is so bad). You cannot imagine!
And when i'm stressed, i become emotionally unstable and i tend to don't find things thats suppose to be funny, funny!

i get annoyed easily and i'll get angry at the slightest things.

So, i'm sorry if you have to see it.

Just try not to piss me off, or attempt to annoy me.

The end of the beginning.

2007-11-15T10:38:00.000+10:00

AND these wonderful people made curtin such a nice place... Finals is just around the corner, and i'm taking a break from studying plus the connection is really good so i want to take the opportunity to blog about a few people. There is more but i don't have pictures with them so here are a few that i do have pictures with. Once again, it has come to an end of the semester but this ending is different than the last.

This end is the i'm-not-coming-back-so-take-care kinda end. Indeed, my last semester has come to an end. In a way, i'm relieved and ready for my 3 months holiday while preparing to jet off to a whole new country and in a way, i feel reluctant. As in, I dont want it to end but yet i dont want to stay here forever.

I have made so many wonderful friends here. So many, too many to mention. Below are a few that I will not only remember forever BUT they have made me who i am today. In both the good ways and the not so good ways. They were my family when I felt that i needed family. They are the type of friends that will come crash my wedding if i got married in the future. They are the few friends i appreciate and i am glad i had.

Abby, the sei pat po that made me come to Curtin in the first place. Someone I love to watch get drunk. She just keeps talking and talking and talking. Like, Dude! STOP TALKING. I've been hanging with her since the beginning. I've got her back and she's got mine- I know it! "KNNBCCB" HAHA Psychotic Bitch.

Belinda, Belinda, Since first sem babeh! HAHA Yea, she cracks me up most of the time especially with her damn lame jokes which only guys will come up with and her hyper-ness She have been like family to me. Looking out for me in her own ways. I think she is an uberly-awesome friend someone can ever have. She's one of the other psychotic bitch. She's the one that went through the 5 hours driving theory class with me. I think i was not listening at all. I was just sitting there like a dumb fuck, not understanding anything that weird man was saying. Bel, Bel, i'm going to miss you.

Mei Vun, my soar advisor during orientation. She's lamer than Bel, way lamer. Didnt hang out with her much this sem because i moved away from hostel and she got herself a new boyfriend but everything is still cool. She's still as lame as ever. We used to play basketball at midnight just for fun and abby&I used to watch her cook her very complicated meals at Block C. Ahhhh, Mei Vun come visit me in melb and i'll drop by perth or who knows i end up in Perth. HAHA

Salleh balleh, the big brother also known as the rocker dude now still known as the rocker dude but most importantly Cheri's other paramour. The first time I got wasted was with you and I believe the last time i will get wasted in Miri will be with you again. HAHA He have been an awesome friend as well. Nowadays, we hang out more cos 1) he's the housemates boyfriend and he's always around the house. HAHA I am going to miss drinking with you thats for sure. Rock on!

Azfar, the one on the left-the shorter one. My other brother who looks out for me. Someone i feel safe hanging around. When hanging around him and Van, i'm like the kid who dont know and most importantly dont want to know anything. He was the one that forced 6 shots of JD down my throat on my birthday, supposedly 18. To him it aint torture, its a tradition. I so hope this tradition will not go on when i go to australia. I met him during orientation night, i was that drummer chick. Heh! He's the best brother and friend anyone can ever have. Really, from the bottom of my heart, THAT YOU HURT FOR NOT BRINGING ME FOR ROTI JOHN THE OTHER NIGHT! HAHA

Fidah, my brunei coursemate to friend to drinking friend to..... people who share common interest instantly become friends you know? She was drinking shots with me on my birthday. She made me keep going. HAHA awesome! I think she's a really nice person and she takes care of me whenever i'm a goner at clubs. Cheers! See you in Brunei? HAHA

Steph, from friend to close friend cum housemate. What can i say? You've been a great blessing to me eventhough sometimes there are some disagreements among us but we got through two semesters. How awesome is that? HAHA don't be a psycho bitch without me when you go back to Kuching. HAHA Clubbing till morning. Oh man, those were the times. Good times, good times.

Joannes, Joe aka Bel's other half. What can i say? He's as lame as he looks. Yup, they're both so lame. Well, he's a really nice guy and a really nice friend. I'm glad you wont vice-president for council. I swear i voted for you. HAHA and I will forever be able to immitate the way you walk. Muahahahahaha. and i'll remember the time when you got really drunk and the time when you cut your thumb. Gross!

Kakak Treza, i met her through a bitch and turns out she's way nicer than that bitch. She's the bomb. She helps me with every single units, i know NERD ALERT! She's really an awesome person and an awesome friend. Take care of yourself in Ireland, i'll visit that place one day. Really, really i will. Heh!

Van, van. I'll always remember the time when you lock yourself in the toilet and cut your hair until it became like THAT, as shown below. You shocked me, i was speechless when you came out of the toilet. Because of a few spoiled hair i pulled out but no worries dude, you look hot either way. HAHA times when we went clubbing together and those drinking parties over at VanFar's. All good times! I'll see you in Brunei la. HAHA cheh! You were a great big sister.

Bong, bong, talk about all the times when we hang out together i think there's too much to mention. The times where we will go to EN XIN, HARMONY and DELI PAPA all the time for lunch. Times where we club till dawn. The time when you got so drunk you couldnt even stand. Oh my God, how much did you have to drink? For the record, i'm happy to be there to take care of you eventhough you were throwing up all over the place. Ew! HAHA besides that, those random shopping outings we have and the Brunei-excapade trip we had. HAHA all good times. Take care of yourself please when i'm not here and keep your blog updated, silly!

Cheri Ong, i met her at Azfar's but at that time she was only known as the singing very loudly in chinese girl and i was known as the crying girl but towards the end of semester she became a friend and at the beginning of the second semester she became a good friend cum housemate cum my other paramour. She's my "gang" if i ever need any. She's someone i enjoy talking to. She cracks me up half of the time. She's the cook of the house, always cooking a feast at home and we have to do all the washing. A very funny friend to get drunk with. When she's drunk she's emotionally unstable so... haha but quite funny la. I'll always remember the times when you would come down to Brunei with me and just hang at my house, playing guitar heroes and buzz. HAHA You're addicted to it, admit it! HAHA I love her to the max and i am really glad i had you throughout the whole of second semester. Whoo, looking forward for the KK trip and my Penang trip in Jan. Better take me to places with awesome food!

Jon, ahhh my SAS senior who became my year in Curtin. HAHA he stays opposite my house and will randomly come over and knock on our door either to ask for food or just to kacau us. Psycho ah you. Go hang with your "cool" friends outside your house la. EH!

Ah wui, the guy from party asses who is very funny. HAHA yes, he's a nice guy who is really funny when he is drunk. He is a really nice friend who will always give me a ride to campus on wednesdays during lecture. He's the crazy 3D tattoo effect guy who insist i get a tattoo with him. Noooo not yyett.... still dunno what design i want ler.

Phebe, I use to be really intimidated by her and her fierceness but once i got to know her she's actually a really really nice person and a very nice friend who looks out for me. We have many failed attempts on trying to bring her clubbing. Before i leave, you better be allowed to go!!! HAHA

Kedung aka Rachel Moon, She's my media junior but actually my senior. HAHA she just came into Curtin this semester. She's also my director. She's like the funniest person i know who is crazy and drinks every day. Everytime we go clubbing we will sure message her, "where are you, wanna go clubbing?" and there was once she met us at thai bar but she occasionally dissapeared! Seriously, where do you go? She claims she has MANY friends but it is kinda true. She seem to know everybody, correction EVERYBODY KNOWS HER! Huh, omg! I wouldnt get through this semester without her. HAHA She's crazyyy! She went to school drunk once and she lied to us saying she got sun burn. Abby and I were stupid enough to believe her. It was raining that whole day and the day before as well. So we told her, "WOW you managed to find sun in this kind weather" Then later found out she was actually drunk. Hanging with her there's always laughter and craziness! Serious laughter and craziness. Will miss you babe.

J.Jay the gay gay, my other media junior. I actually sneaked him into my house when i was back in Brunei to sleepover. Thats like the craziest thing i've ever done in my whole life. He's very super open with his sexual orientation and i feel that sometimes he gives out too much information. He's a youtube addict always showing me videos on youtude, madtv-the funny one. He's funny and fun to hang around with. He's just like one of us girlies. The first time none of us know he was gay, not even suspect. When kedung found out, she was laughing like mad. BUT now, its a normality and if he does anything wrong we just blame it on his gayness. He's stupid at times though, insulting people. =P YOU SUCK!
Sarah Jane, the miri Jesicca Simpson. I like hanging with her, she's so so so so funny! As in really funny. She gives me all her TV shows to watch. Heh!

I think its a really good song, a song full of meanings. Its a song about friendship. I really like it, try listening to it. I would translate it but I dont know how to so Imma leave it in Chinese.

眼看星星落下　窗外一點一點出現陽光　　摸摸我的頭　你說我很棒我們都是這樣　一面帶著傷痕一面飛翔　　難過的時候　有我在身旁我陪你等天亮　擁抱著一起分享　　能放心的哭一場　是再微笑的力量 只有你　明白我的瘋狂　　不管故事有多長　世界對我太善良 這一路上有你　我變得堅強 你知道我多傻　在你面前從來不用逞強 聽我說說話　讓我靠一下我們都是這樣　想要幸福卻都跌跌撞撞 可是不要怕　有我在身旁 我陪你等天亮　擁抱著一起分享 能放心的哭一場　是再微笑的力量只有你　明白我的瘋狂不管故事有多長　世界對我太善良　　這一路上有你　我變得堅強比賽看誰　早一點學會就算逆風　也能好好帶著祝福不再流淚 勇敢的飛　然後分享那種喜悅許：我們都是這樣　一面帶著傷痕一面飛翔 難過的時候　有你在身旁 我陪你等天亮　擁抱著一起分享　　能放心的哭一場　是再微笑的力量　　只有你　明白我的瘋狂　　不管故事有多長　世界對我太善良　　這一路上有你　我變得堅強.

This semester passed by rather fast, CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? In exactly two weeks time I will be sitting for my first paper. OMG, i remember it as though it was yesterday i was back from my one month holiday with the curiosity who our new juniors are. And now, its like the end of my Foundation.

This semester indeed past by like the wind. With our weekly activity; clubbing and our daily life; being bored at home. Anyways, i'm going to start studying today. I just received my WRS paper for the finals. They give us 3 articles before hand and we have to read and re-read and remember everything we have read plus practising how to write the essay. So, when we enter to the exam hall, we're given the exact 3 articles and we have to write an essay from what we remember.

I have a small brain, so i think i have to re-read a few more times. Heh? This semester we only have exams for 4 units, lucky me.

Exam Timetable:
19th November (Monday)- 12PM Writing and Research Skills 062
3PM Business Management 062

20th November (Tuesday)-12PM Malaysian Studies

22nd November (Thursday)-12PM Effective Communication Skills 062

Excitement, something to look forward to..
23rd Nov- Kota Kinabalu
26th Nov- Brunei
1st Dec- Del's Wedding!!!

With the excitements at the end, i certainly cant wait till it end. I'm going to miss my friends though! =(
