advertorial

hey ppl!!! dis is an advertorial (incase u cant tell from the title... =p) wad am i advertising? me! or rather, my blog!

to all new readers, welcome! initially i wasnt on kyuushi n i was content coz my blog is kinda private anyway. but with all the adverts on blogs around me,which i must say, totally appeals to my money minded side, i decided to have a few for myself n in order to earn $$ fill the readership quota, i decided to let my blog go more public. i say "more public" because it is not completely public yet. =p so im asking u guys to not give out my blog address to random ppl. if i wan them to noe, i'll tell them myself. :)

so about the advertorial part. dis is the part where i explain my blogging style n hope it will attract ur interest so dat u will visit my blog everyday hoping i have updated. dis is so dat i will earn money!!!

im a very spontaneous n rather emotional person, so my posts will be about wads goin on in my life at dat point of time n wad i say may be offensive esp if im angry or upset. so if u happen to noe who im tokin about (or if ure the person im toking about), you have been warned. also, u may discover thru reading my blog, dat i was not the person u tot i was. dis is because you dont noe me. (actually, im not sure if even I noe me =p) if u get my sense of humour, great. if u dun, go cry. =p i can be very sarcastic at times so bear wif me.

wad else...

i update regularly so please check frequently. press f5!

lastly, dis is MY blog so i have the right to express myself here in any way dat i see fit. dun tell me wad to do or not to do. *smiles innocently* if u dun like it, u can always click the small red x button on the upper right hand corner of the page. but do keep visiting my page. u dun have to read it. (money!)

oh ya, n also pls do chat and/or leave comments evrytime u visit. if not my blog will be very dead. if ure interested in the ads u see on my blog, PLEASE do click on them. (gawd... im so money-faced in dis entry!)

i guess dats all! welcome n knock urselves out!

pirate n wannabe drunk pics

i went out wif my classmates yesterday. we went to yam cha at secret recipe then watched pirates n finally we had dinner at the laundry bar.


dis is us at secret recipe...

lets start wif the faces on the left: xia xia, hua jie, lit fu, jeannie, min yuen, florence, serene, kean min (i tink dats his name-we call him tai kor but i have no idea y tho...) wei chao n me! (yes, i realise his hand is there, but if u look closely, its at serene's side too. =p)


serene n wc


wc n i (he's possibly an even bigger camwhorer than i am! *gasp*)


tai kor, wei yee n minyuen


dis is where we watched the movie... i tot pirates was pretty good despite the bad reviews dat i heard. too bad i already knew the ending b4 i watched it. (stupid boy!) i esp love captain jack sparrow!!! i tink i noe y sum ppl found it boring... they din get the jokes! there was one part about 'hell hath no fury like a woman scorned' (except it came out all warbled) but only a few in the cinema actually got it! *sigh...msians!*

after the movie we went to makan!


dis is all of us at the laundry bar.


its located at the curve, rite outside cineleisure...


hmm... im not sure if its called 'the laundry bar', 'laundry bar' or juz 'laundry'


min yuen, wei yee n i


ethan n melanie. i dunno either of them coz they arent my classmates, but they're relli frenly anyway. haha~


dis is lit fu n his gf... i forgot her name! but as u can see... she's relli HOT! im sure u guys r already salivating on ur keyboards anyway...

gosh... looking at those couples...*JEALOUS* they r so lovey dovey n stuff! ohh... i tink im getting a toothache! *glares at u-noe-who n whacks him wif a rolling pin*




these r our drinks... bellini, fuzzy cranberry (mine), sth strawberry n sum coffee drink... i cant rmbr they r called. =p u can see flo also taking the drinks in the background...


dis is my 1st sad attempt at looking sweet n seductive. but it was too dark. :(


its brighter now, but not very sweet nor seductive. so i gave up on sweet....

n tried for juz seductive instead...

fine. forget it.

then i saw... the beer dat the guys ordered! then all hell was let loose! no, i din drink a single sip. i dun like beer... the same as i dun like coffee... its too strong n bitter. im too sweet for it! *gags*


i have the whole jug! lets go crazy!!! my fren sed i looked too awake n sober. so here goes...


there! drunk enuf for u!? muahaha~~


i finally got 'seductive' right! i shall call dis my 'come-hither' look! *grins*

oh how i love cam whoring...=p

btw, the place was exp, so if u ever go, bring ur $$$!

move

i moved into my new hse on sunday. i tried uploading these pics dat nite, but blogger was giving me hell n by the time i had uploaded all the pics, i was too tired to type. so i saved the pics n went to bed. when i came back on mon to blog, only 3 pics were here! wth!!! so i spent mon uploading pics again. and now on tues, i can finally tpe n post dis. there r loads more pics of tonite for me to post (i went to watch pirates wif my classmates n ltr we had dinner at the laundry bar. i have some pretty crazy cam-whoring!), but it'll juz have to wait. =p

aniwaez, back to the topic at hand.


dis is meena!

she's a great hse mate. she's hardworking n always busy but im lazy n thus always free n bored. (pretty ironic coz im the one studying law n she's studying mass comm) i wish we cud still be hse mates. :(

i was quite close to her roommate durkkha too. but i dun have her pic. =p

err... i wasnt close to the africans so i dont have their pics either. =p


dis is all my stuff! alot for one person rite? lolz~


my room looked so empty after dat...

but i told u my new hse was pretty swell rite?


see... the stuff is from ikea n still got the tags summore ar! dun pray pray!


all my stuff b4 i unpacked. gosh... i dunno how i came to have soo much stuff! (its a double room but i took the whole room.)


the rooms r so nicely decorated, there r even paintings on the wall! i mean who wud bother hanging paintings on the wall of a hse u were gonna rent out??? (ppl overseas, i have seen pics of wad ur rooms r like n they r wayyyy nicer. but dis is msia we're toking about!)


only one side of the cupboards can open. the other one is for the ppl nxt door to open from the other side. wierd huh?


my lil tv set. AND vcr. (comes wif the room. every room has one.)


there r even paintings at the staircase!

last nite 2 of my new hse mates asked me out to yam cha wif another fren of theirs. i was kinda tired but i din wanna refuse coz i was new n if i refused, they mite not bother to ask me nxt time n it was a good chance to get to noe them anyway. they were pretty nice to me. hopefully, we'll get along well. =D

stahlwarenhandelsgesellschaft

im studying for my legal method re-sit. its tml. *sigh* the case is:

Brinkibon Ltd v Stahag Stahl and Stahlwarenhandelsgesellschaft mbH

i noe wad ure tinking... wth rite? i tink i mite even get the spelling wrong! geez man, cant ppl all have simple names??? lolz

anyway, its about offer n acceptance regarding telex. blah~

aniwaez, tml is gonna be pretty packed for me! after my exam which is at 10am, im gonna have lunch wif my classmates then come home n pack a bit. then im gonna go for ielts class. after dat, im gonna go to the train station n catch the train to pwtc coz dats where my uncle's condo is n my family is staying there. im gonna go SWIMMING there!

gosssshhhhh... how i miss swimming! then im gonna wear my swimsuit again... yay~! haha... it mite seem weird to u dat im excited about wearing my swimsuit, but hear me out. i've rarely been swimming since i stopped my swimming lessons in f3 (or was it f2) however, i bought a new swimsuit in f5 for a trip to aussie. so i feel very sayang for the money spent on it coz i relli like it but rarely get to use it. theefore, im excited whenever i get to use it coz it proves dat it wasnt a wate of money. swimming suits aint cheap ya noe? =p besides, juz the tot of swimming excites me! i tink the whole of last yr i only swam less than 10 times. :( dats sooo sad!

aniwaez, as a fren put in her personal msg on msn, "dont digress, juz progess!" im gonna go back to reading the case again...

i ate a relli great lunch today! i havent got the pics wif me, but i'll post em up when i get them! =p

(this text has been deleted for purposes of preserving the blogger's life =p)

***************

on another note, i watched grey's anatomy juz now. its the episode where a guy wanted to cut of his penis to be a female. but he was married. to a FEMALE. so their story was dat when he/she 1st told his/her wife dat he/she wanted to changed her/his sex, the wife left him/her. (lets juz call the transexual 'x' its so much shorter to type. =p) but the wife came back in the end. when meredith asked her y she came back, she sed she din noe. but ltr in the episode, she answered (not verbatim! but sth like dis...)

"i did date after i left x. i had plenty of very nice 1st dates. but when u have sth exciting or fun happen to u, u juz wanna share it wif somebody. ur best fren. n i all dis while, x was my best fren."

get it? its so sweet... n so very understandable. our frens may hurt us in ways dat we nvr knew we cud hurt, but in the end, we always go back to them. y do we put ourselves thru such pain? because because dat person is your best fren. the person dat u can share EVERYTHING with. aww...

***************

oh yea... i also watched blades of glory juz now! its so hilarious!!! its uber lame, so i tink most of u will totally get all the lame jokes n find them funny too! =p my fave line in the movie was "nights are very dark for me" the reply was "nights are dark for everyone dunce!" geddit??? ok, maybe its not so funny. -_-" but the movies is relli funny! its kinda like the Stephen chow brand of "slap in ur face" funny. err... i dun mean dat slapping is funny, wad i mean is dat the humour is not subtle. =p

packing n dinner

when i got home from sch today, i suddenly juz felt like packing. (im moving to the new place on sunday) so i spontaneously pulled out a box n started filling it wif my storybooks. it wasnt enuf, so i pulled out another box n started filling it too. all my law books also got packed away. then i moved on to foodstuff. i had no more boxes so i took an empty box from the landing outside. my containers alone were too numerous to be stuffed into the box. (i have lotsa containers coz everytime i go home, i bring lotsa food back!) so i packed the box as compact as i cud wif some of the containers n the rest of the space wif tin cans. (yes, i noe dat the cans can be put into the containers, but the containers were already full of other containers! =p)

in the end, i had 4 packed boxes! where did the 4th pop up from? its my printer box, i packed it last yr but havent unpacked it to use dis yr so its still in its box. =p



1+1= 2!!! or maybe it equals to a window! (lameeee!)


dis is my container box!


my printer box!

i have 4 boxes packed yet i still have loads more to pack!


my desk area


my shelves... note the containers on the shelf? these r the one dat i din manage to fit into the box.


my dressing table. yes, i do noe dat its messy. so? =p


my closets still full of clothes n stuff...

*sigh* looks like i've got loads more packing to do n i've barely started on my things in the kitchen.

anyway, after my initial packing frenzy, i took a shower n wasted some time on9 b4 cooking dinner. i cooked sth yummilicious today!!!!!!



look....


cant see?


its chicken! (ok, i dun tink it looks very nice in the pic but it was relli relli good!)

here's a closeup!

ta da~~! chicken marinated wif dark soy sauce, worchestershire sauce n my fave.... generous helpings of honey!!! stewed to tender perfection.... *yum yum!*

nuffnang

the ppl at nuffnang r cute. not physically coz i dunno wad they look like, but u'll find out y i say so soon. =p

a few months ago, kenny sia promoted nuffnang in his blog.

so being the money minded opportunistic person dat i am, i subscribed to it too. or is the word 'registered'? wadever, same la! but sumhow, no matter how hard i tried, the nuffnang ad juz wouldnt appear. i emailed the nuffnang ppl several times about it n they also replied several times wif various suggestions. (note dat dis was several months ago!)then finally, i went to nuffnang.com n poked around a bit, trying to find out wad was wrong. then i found it! in my blog url, i typed xiuching.blogpot.com when it was supposed to be xiuching.blogspot.com!!! so i sent them another email telling them dat i had discovered the problem n hoped to have it fixed as soon as possible.

dis was the reply:

lolz~! the ure a genius part is soo funny! i tink they were also fed up wif me n were happy dat i was finally off their hands. =p

hey

my internet connection is so sucky tonight.

juz now, i sed 'hey' to my hsemate n she din respond at all. b****! or maybe she din hear me. she's nice at times n at others its as if i dun exist. anyway, dun u find it sooo annoying when u greet some ppl n they dun acknowledge u at all??? its so blardy rude! like as if it will kill them to be cordial! dis happens in msn too! ok, maybe they r away or busy or sth, but if dis happens more than a few times, u can tell dat sth is wrong. esp if they suddenly tok to u, only to ask for u help. wth is wrong wif these ppl??? din they ever learn a lil sth called MANNERS??? haihhhh

if sum1 says hi to u, say it back. n it wont hurt to greet ppl 1st once in a while too.

**********

but besides dat, i had a pretty uneventful day. i spent the whole day at home. after i woke up, i cooked lunch n watched the 2pm series on 8tv. then it started to rain. but i still did my laundry anyway coz i'd left it for too long n i juz had to do it already. so i did my laundry wif the rain totally deafening me. (the roof of the laundry area is metal so its damn loud when it rains, esp when it rains as heavily as it did today) then i watched the 4pm series also on 8tv. (they used to show 'devil beside u'. now they r showing 'the prince who turns into a frog') it seems dat the only channel dat i watch these days is 8tv. hehe~ after dat there wasnt anything on tv anymore, so i went upstairs n finished the last everworld book dat i bought. then i cooked dinner n bathed n ate n watched summore tv. then i came upstairs n have been on9 since.

wad an exciting day huh? but u noe wad? after the drama of the past few weeks, i like dis peacefulness. it wud be nicer if the internet connection were better tho. =p
