the ending was so anticlimactic! so many questions left unanswered, as if there was going to be a fourth installation to the series. so i googled it to check... and there is none!

there are few things i hate worse than a bad ending.

speaking of which, ming is out!
oh noes!!!

what are u voters thinking???!!!

banestone

i received the final installation for the pearl saga today. so much for studying...

procrastinating

i know i've mentioned this many times before, but im gonna say it again... i love mail!!!

the way to my heart is via mail. and food. wtf

i bought some makeup brushes online the other day and they arrived today. now im soo excited to try them!

so people, ask me out to fancy dinners already! or any occasion that will require dressing up la.
not only do i wanna try out my new brushes, i have loads of new threads i have yet to wear!
so whatcha waiting for! lets go partayyyyyy~~~

oh wait, exams are just less than a week away. wtf

i always itch very badly to try out my new stuff. who doesnt! admit it! =p

actually im in the middle of an essay right now. gotta hand it in tomorrow.

but the sien-ness of studying/ doing coursework always brings out the wanna-type-out-random-stuff-ness in me.

omg, i totally forgot my apples!!! i bought them last week and there are now 4 left.
*runs to fridge*
ok, make that 3 left. *bites into apple*


a happy picture to remind myself of more carefree times.

dammit, if i knew we were gonna stop to take pictures in a field of flowers, i would have dressed the part and prettified myself.

instead, tired after playing paintball, i was half asleep in this photo. i just stumbled out of the car, trying to open my eyes, then stood in the field trying to look nice for the photos.

"Congrats, darlin. So ur english very 'teng'. No, I won't disown anyone. U all cause me so much work & worry & cost me so much I can;t afford to release anyone from lookin afta me in my old age. Haha."

why it is important to chose your case when you get the chance to and not just let yourself be assigned to left-over cases:

because now im left with a case that is so freaking old that none of the 3 textbooks i have with me even so much as mentions this case!

so clever!

$&*%#$&@@#(*&#@!

a whole season late

yes, i know im a whole season(possibly two) late, but better late than never right? right??

these will be a compilation of all the snow pictures that i took in winter. so dont get confused if there doesnt seem to be a sequence of events.


if you look at the road, you might just be able to discern some falling snow


these pictures were taken on one of the heavier snowfall days




see the thickness of the snow on some branches?


the dots in the sky are snow


i think this picture is cool... it looks distorted although i didnt do anything to it at all.


one day, a few of us went to a park nearby to play with the snow...


1st time see snow mar... must jakun abit.


elysha, caroline, angela n jon




elysha thinking evil thoughts...


the easiest way to make huge snowballs is to hug a huge chunk of snow to your body




i think this would make a nice banner picture. it just needs some cropping and editing :)






the building behind the trees is the mansion


playing with a huge-ass snowman that some other people built


it was huge... and also very dirty


u know the bury-a-person-in-sand game?
this is the snow version.


look at caroline's expression! HAHAHA


abit fail because the snow kept sliding off -_-"




jon's turn!


his over-sized organs


summore got 6-pack... dun play play!




xmas tree sans decorations




beyond that gate is a little path.

fresh snow is alright to walk on, because its flaky, there is some grip to it. but when the snow turns to ice, it becomes really slippery and dangerous. the path behind the gate was pretty steep and with the ice on it, it became very very hard to travel on. you should have seen all of us, gripping the gates and making such slow progress >.<
view from my window


the view is even nicer at night...


ta da!
looks so magical~


this was taken when i went down to london and got stranded -_-"


yun mei's sister, yours truly, yun mei and stella with our snowman!

see, so clean compared to the huge one in the park! summore the smiley face to cute! haha~
u have no idea how hard it was to find stones n twigs! everything was buried under the snow and getting the right shapes and sizes was a nightmare!

stella's insane, she didnt even wear gloves!


thats me with our masterpiece!


then we had a snowball fight!


my 1st ever snowangel!


so hard to get up -_-"


ta da!


these next few pictures were taken that time we had dinner at goldmine.
oh... i miss the duck! T_T
(and my earmuffs. wtf)


kiong, stella, mel, me, jo, un-pro photographer's finger


besties




damn i miss em peeps!

sometimes im so healthy i amaze myself.


so that was my lunch. (super bad quality pic because i took it with my webcam which has a tendency of making things look brighter and whiter, thus deceiving my family into thinking that i turned into snow white since i came here)
potato, carrots, beans, ang zhi (the chinese red seed thingy)
damn kao healthy.

i havent had much of an appetite these past few days.
i do get hungry, but i just dont feel like eating. or maybe its the hassle of preparing something to eat that turns me off.

whatever it is, i havent been eating much (besides at birthday celebrations).
and no, im not on diet. people dont eat ice cream and chocolate cookies when they are on diet.

and i am so unbelievably reluctant to begin cracking for my exams T_T

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

i just watched 'bride wars'. loved it :D

oh lookie what have we here

if you use blogger, you would notice a button on your dashboard called 'blogger buzz'.

i rarely browse there, but i did today and i found this blog.

its really interesting to read the story of expats in Malaysia. to view my country through their eyes, especially when they've just newly arrived!

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

im supposed to be doing my case commentary now, but every time i switch to my assignment, i immediately start feeling restless.

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

judgment.

i try not to judge. really i do.

but the bad thing about not judging people is that u begin to accept all kinds of behavior. you give people allowances that maybe you shouldn't have.

i dont do certain things and i dont judge others for doing them.

but maybe i should?

am i not condoning this behavior if i allow it to happen unfettered?

empathy.

sometimes i wish i didnt have it.

because sometimes its kinder to be cruel.

cobra

this song is just too cute! and i mean the tune, not the ugly alfie. lol~

im not much of a music fan, but lily allen's songs appeal to me. i like 'LDN' and 'smile' too.

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

aiyahhhhh... y do i always embarrass myself?!

just now, i did a huge-ass load of laundry. so i planned on separating my clothes into 2 dryers. but when i did that, it seemed like both piles of clothes were quite small... but as a single pile, i was afraid that they wouldnt dry properly. so i took out my towel and some items that i could dry on my heater in my room.

with my arms partially laden (i didnt bring a bag with me because i had come down thinking only to transfer clothes from the washing machine to the dryer), i exited the laundry room, smiling to myself because i had saved a pound for only using one dryer.

that was when i realised... that i left my key in the laundry room (we need a resident's key to access the laundry room. the resident's key triples up as my flat and room key too). crap!

so i had to go to reception, hoping madly that the security guard would be there, (with my arms still laden with laundry) and ask the security guard to open the laundry room door.

the security guard tried to initiate small talk, asking where i was from. i told him i was from malaysia and he said he had lived there when he was younger. then he said something about cobras being scary and always entering his malaysian home. this confused me because i know that we have alot of ular sawar and other snakes, but cobras? so i smiled and ran in to get my key n bid him goodnight.

its all starting again...

will i be strong enough to do the right thing this time?

for all you know, im stalking you on facebook

i am... on facebook busy being a stalker.

mel, i watched 'Dracula 2000' and its not bad. not as awesome as 'dark prince' though =p
oh ya, and it had omar epps (the guy in 'house')! i didnt expect that. haha...
i found the ending a bit lame though =p

jealousy is a strange thing. i find myself jealous of someone that has something that i dont even want anymore. does that make sense???

mummy says im not to eat pork because of the swine flu thats circulating the globe. but i heard that my friends might be cooking bak kut teh tomorrow... how lerrrrr

i finally bought weighing scales today! boots was out of stock, so i crossed over to superdrug to check. then the lady said why not try argos? and i was like, duh! so stupid of me to not think of argos!

and they were only selling it for $3.89 at argos as opposed to $5 at boots. luckily boots ran out :D

and after 3/4 of a year here, i finally realized that superdrug is wayyy cheaper than boots (but boots has advantagecard points). and i baru bought some stuff at boots, of which were about $2 less at superdrug. thats over 10 ringgit wei! T.T

see kids, this is why u go to different stores to COMPARE PRICES.

oh ya, and an embarrassing thing happened to me the other day at work. u see right, my hours have been cut and it had been about 2 weeks since i last had a shift (i work on sundays, but last sunday we went paintballing).

so i was working during my shift, then i went to toilet. after i came out, i had to punch in the security code to get into the kitchen area. at that moment, a colleague (who was not working that day, and i have no idea what he was doing at subway, but he always randomly goes to subway anyway) scared me. then i forgot the security code!

i punched in different variations. then at last my colleague had to do it for me. wtf
summore when he scared me, i shouted "you freak!". but what i really meant to say was "you freaked me out". somehow the "-ed me out" died on my lips.

and there were customers watching. fml

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

guess my weight!
i'll tell you if you get it right, but any guesses over 70kg and i will hunt you down.
