fruits of my labor

here's a bag that i made myself. although i have to say its a bit too shallow and abit too wide.

Anyway, update!

Just came back from Swen's party!
SHOUT OUT: HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEN!!!

Then there was Ash's party too.
SHOUT OUT: HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASH!!!

Haha, Ash's party was okay, even though it was kinda separated into college mates and old school mates. Her house is humongous! Me n Jo have a theory that all the houses in Glenmarie have rivers in them. Haha. I fell in, got one jeans leg wet and was almost the laughing stock of the night. I went upstairs to use her hair dryer but it doesn't work. I think cos it was coiled up so tight the wires disconnected. I forgot to tell her, so Ash i hope you're reading this. No pics from that night tho.

Been watching CSI CSI and more CSI. Jo's been so kind to burn season 5 and 6 for me. Hehe with payment of course, which was the ride to Ash's and back. hehe. See nothing in this life is free..

Met up with Ash Jo and Kel also for dinner on Federal Territory day. Went to Madam Kwan's which has superb food. i love the nasi bojari. its superblysplendiferous. It was dress down day, which means its a public holiday, but i didn't care lah! these were oldies but goldies who didn't give a shit what i looked like cos anything i wear now sure beats me in a school uniform. Gahaha.

Mum got me a sewing machine. Its really cool! Can sew straight stitches, zig zag, and lots of patterns. It can even do embroidery. I'm so impressed! And it comes with a table and some other free stuff. I'll post pics another time. I've been working it like mad haha.

Anyway time to go beddy bye now, enough of updates.

PIMA

no not pima cotton. more like, Pain in my ass.

CDFM is a real pain in my ass.

So what if this is public? Screw you.

You guys deserve to be wrenched out in public.

Sickos.

I'm real pissed cos of you.

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

Why does everyone want me not to be me.

See, im so freaking pissed at everyone and everybody and everything, i cursed.

Well, freedom of speech and artistic license and all that...

GAH.

why don't everyone just leave me alone.

go handle your perfect lives and perfect selves.

and leave me alone.

Pics from 2006

At the MIFW a couple of months back. My partner-in-crime was drooling over the girls...hahaha. It was here where i got the first inklings of what my future looks like.Agape Seremban. One of the only AFC outreaches this year and a first time joint collaboration with G4G. It was fun, right guys? Made us all yearn for more but oh well, not until we solve our stuff. Me and some soon-to-be famous people. Haha, dunno about that la. Ash and Jo, at TSB after their booklaunch. Go get the book, it's called Write Out Loud compiled by Karen Ann Thesiera *at least i think thats how to spell her name* if only for their two stories which i think are pretty interesting!

See! I'm doing your marketing for you two. You guys should pay me. Pics from Christmas Service 2006. My outfit was one of the least expensive of the years... coming up to a total of RM110. Good eh? The red bubble dress was a good find! Its really comfy and so worth the 35 bucks i paid for it. What can i say? I'm a cheap-skate, so sue me. Why waste all your money on one piece of clothing, when i can get four or five for less! Hahaha.

So there went 2006 and onwards to 2007. New sem starts in a week, man...hehe, i think i still have some outstanding assignments. Oh well.

Christmas Rocks

inally, here are some pics... i don't have them all, most of them are in other people's camera's but these are what i have.



This was from my house party. We were playing this crazy game called Cranium. Nuts! Very fun though. Banyaks la the drama that happened during this game...


















These sunrise pics were from...PD! Haha, after service on Christmas Eve, everything moved so fast, everyone was in a little bit of a blur.

We wanted to go for drinks after so Derek suggested Burger King, cos he's been there before at 2.30am and it was 24hrs. So we all packed into cars like tuna fish cans and headed for BK. We arrived to discover that BK was closed. Apparently only the drive through was 24 hrs. And so everyone was prepared to "walk-through" but well, not everyone was happy so we brought the party next door to McD's.

We were there for the record time of an hour when everyone got up to leave. Crazy?! Sheesh all these boyfriend la girlfriend la mummy calling la. Eeyer, so annoying. Its like everyone who is in a couple, is no fun oredi =( Anyway, so left me, jan, adrian, elvy, jovenne and tristen and tristen took jan n jo home after a bit anyway. The three of us tak puas and so we decided to...hehe...drive to PD!

So we did, and waited for sunrise. But Elvy argues that the only one that was actually awake to see the sunrise was her, cos Adrian n i dozed off. It was her snoring that put us to sleep lah! Nah, just kidding. So there, all the pretty pictures were from the seaside sunrise on Christmas day! We drove back to KL, reached around 10am and promptly went to breakfast at one of the worst mamaks near my house. I mean, we're tired, near complete zoinkness and even we were more courteous than that evil mamak waiter/owner/whatever. He rolled his eyes cos we took abit longer to make our decisions and was being so freaking rude. I've never been there, even thought i've passed it many times, i decided to be nice and langgan the guy la. But well, we're never going back there again.

And for the rest of you, never ever go to Restoran BRJ or whatever its stupid name is, cos the service there really sucks.

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

...And that was your friendly neighbourhood report on lame-ass places to eat...

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

After that, we went back to my place cos Elvy needed the loo and when we came down, we decided to play a prank on Adrian. So we both got into the car, acting all excited and said "OKAY! Now off to Ipoh, to eat ipoh chicken rice!"...

HAHAHA...

The poor guy actually started moving the car, but his face was so kesian while saying, "Huh, but i wanna go home" so pitifully. Elvy thinks if i hadn't kesianed him and told him we were joking, he might have actually drove us off to Ipoh anyway! Haha so that was very funny.

So i slept and slept until woken by Andrea. She wanted us to go out or something and i was half asleep so i said ok why not. So met her at her house and she said she needed to pick something up from her friend's house. I said okay, and she goes to the same apartment blocks that Qian stays in. So she calls her friend and i think her friend was coming down to the car, i wasn't really paying attention cos i was half dead and trying to message someone with my stupid dumb signall-less phone. Guess who?

IT WAS QIAN!!!
She reached at about 4am and she's gonna be home for two months! Yay.
Anyway, i malas to continue writing. It's already a really long post. So see ya, cos i have a life!

TAG! I'm it!

Name 11 people you can think of right off the top of your head. Don't read the questions underneath until you write the names of all 11 people. This is a lot funnier if you actually randomly list the names first. NO CHEATING!! At the end of this, choose 5 people to do this. =)

1. Derek
2. Adrian
3. Mel
4. Daniel
5. Andrea
6. Qian
7. Janning
8. Davin
9. Swen
10. Elvy

How did you meet 10?
I think i met this bummer at one AFC camp...

What would you do if you had never met 6?
Huhu, what a deprived life i would lead. No one to go shopping and teman Drea with...

What would you do if 6 and 2 dated?
Qian and Adrian... hmm, i don't think she's his type. Would be kinda weird, for those who know what i mean!

Have you ever seen 4 cry?
Nope i don't think so. He's not a man of many and varied reactions to things, he's so cool calm and collected all the time.

Do you think 1 is cute?
HAHAHA! What do you think?

Tell me something about number 11.
Josh? He's a real crazy wacky driver and a real sweetie at heart, even though he acts so macho.

How do you know 8?
How do i know Davin? I suppose i know him reasonably enough, met him when Derek brought him to St. Paul's for some occasion and he stuck around after that.

Would you ever go on a date with number 5?
I'm strictly heterosexual, mind you.

What's 7's favourite colour?
Purple? Oh..no, that's her BFF's fave colour. I don't know la!

What would you do if 6 confessed they liked you?
Like i said before, i'm strictly heterosexual, so i wouldn't encourage anything of that sort. But if she says she likes me as a friend or something like that, then...OF COURSE THAT's FINE!

Fact about number 9:
Swen Swen Swen... She's a busy bee. She's got great hair and shops like crazy.

Who is 4 going out with?
Who else...

Who is number 5 to you?
She's part of the sisterhood, yo mama! Haha, nope that doesn't work when i say it.

Would you ever live with 11?
Josh? Er...i don't think so. Can't keep up with his happening lifestyle.

Is 2 single?
Not sure now...

Where does 7 live?
TTDI

What do you think about 3?
Abit shy, pleasant person... I think she's cute...

What's the best thing about number 8?
He always twinkles when he smiles!

What do you like about number 10?
She's...huggable? ahahah just kidding! She's a good venting ear.

Favourite memory with 2?
Hahaha i think it was at camp and at PD. That was a real fun time =)

And the 5 random persons TAGGED:
Drea
Hobbit
Janning
Swen
Ash

Cheers, humbugs!

I had a great time today! I was feeling a little down in the dumps cos of things that have been happening yesterday and the day before. I was feeling really let down by things, i got into a minor accident which i haven't told my parents about yet *eesh* and i kept arguing with people. I really am not in a very sympathetic or forgiving mood currently.

Bah Humbug yah?

Bleh, life sucks. But we just have to...u know...suck it up!
Lots of things i wanna blog about but well...too many people read my blog.
Although...i could make this blog private now that i can.

anyway, not like that many people read my blog so i will.
This is the end of an era.
If not invited, well, you'll never read this blog ever again.
Toodle-oo!

Geramnye!

Eeeeee...geramnye!
Sometimes people annoy me so much.
People who don't care, people i care about, people who don't appreciate me caring for them and all the rest of the people in the world.

ARGH!

Rob me!

I passed by a bank robbery today.
Even the yellow tape didn't make it look impressive.
Apparently, there were armed robbers and they got away with a bag of money.
This guy loitering by the roadside, well...me n my friend, we stopped him and asked him what happened. He was inside the bank when it happened and he says it was over in about 10 minutes!
Haha so ridiculous.

Well another well done to our police.

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

I was supposed to go Cameron's today, but well!
Can't really rely on people as usual.

Sometimes i wish i had more adventurous friends.
You know, people who would just up and at 'em at a moment's notice or who are up for anything and say that 'There's always a first time for everything!'
Hard lah to find. And i won't do some of the things i want to do without kaki.
Sigh what can i do.
People will be people.
Sheesh.

Here it goes again

Late niters seem to come hand in hand with college life. i hate it. And its usually because i'm lazy and left it to last minute, but this time round, i've been hardworking but still i hve to stay up late. Why? Other people are irresponsible. End up i have to do all the work. Sheesh.

I hate groupwork for college. Cos people...sigh. U just can't rely on people.

It's 5.30am, my brains are fried and i feel like murder. Not only that, today's a day for a final exam. Life sucks, ya know it, but God is great and He will pull me through this. I haven't even studied yet. But thanks to hardwork and stuff in the early part of the semester, i've got a high enough grade to pass i think. Hah! Thank goodness for that.

Anyway, let me try and catch some shut eye now, maybe for a couple of minutes. Sigh

Second Best

I'm tired of being second best. In God's eyes, of course i'm unique special and everything else. I'm blessed with talents no one else has. But my worth in the world is so little, i'm shown.

But why should i care? Why should i care about my worth based on worldly measurements? I can say i try not to, but sometimes it really gets me down. But God will lift me up, lift me in His big hands and tell me that He loves me and thats all that matters.

These recent days, many things have happened. I've been tested beyond what i thought was my limits but i came through in the end. Even though people might not see it, but i know what i have accomplished so far by the grace of God.

I thank God for my friends, who keep me grounded in Christ. They pull me back when i leap out the protective circle and they remind me of who and what i'm supposed to be.

So be good people.
(insert punctuation as you like)

Me back!

Well i'm back from camp. Still abit tired, even after a full night's rest. Lots of things happened at camp, lots of first time experiences and lots of fun. It was both good and bad and i have many testimonies from there. But i'll leave that to another day, cos i think i'm still abit lethargic and i wanna SLEEP!

Just to let you know i'm back, thats all.

Tis the season...

Tis the season to be jolly
Falalalalaaaa la la la laaaa!

And it's also the season of camps.
Coming up this Friday is the DYC camp until the 12th.
so thats why i have to blog now, otherwise it would be ages until u next read anything.
This has been a record time period in between posts since i started blogging.

update:
I recently started working at Moleque again. Just for two weeks and for a little bit of extra money. Sigh. I'm a bit broke. I think i might just discontinue G4G training to save on money. So far i've only decided to discontinue for a month, but who knows. I might stop for good. Firstly cos i need the time, i can't afford to give that precious weekend time to dance. The weekend is my only day of rest. Sigh, then it's the money. Can't afford that too. not with the additional costs my materials are bringing on.

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

Semester one is coming to an end. In two weeks time to be exact. And boy am i relieved. I so need a break. i need to recharge and renew. I'm getting abit lethargic and tired. But i would say i really enjoyed my semester and it didnt seem like a drag at all. not like before.
