urgh

Gong xi fa cai happy chinese new year blablabla go eat cookies grow fat.

why is everyone (ok maybe not you la) so hyped up about CNY ? food ? angpows? family gatherings ?

For me, neither. It's just another ordinary day.

Unlike Christmas.

On a different note, what I'd like to do now is to go on a movie marathon of the Lord of The Rings trilogy. To get there I NEED the first part of this trilogy, where it all begin - The Fellowship of Ze Ring. help.

TATA.

new-found lav

Behold :

Currently reading this book. The Lord Of The Rings trilogy.

This book is by far the most interesting, captivating fantasy book I've ever laid eyes on. It prevented me from doing anything else except devouring it ! brava, Tolkien. You've done it.

Was hesitant at first to read this because of its thickness and the words are so refined, so small. :P That kinda scared me. But I figured I ought to read something out of my comfort zone and thought why not go for it. Go for that fat heavy book.

And so far it has been good, albeit the words ARE small. So got to train my eyes. You should try reading it too, if you have plenty of time like me.

reflections needed.

I think I'm like a chameleon, changing colours every now and then, following the environment around me. (-;

I'm still learning to plant my feet firmly on the ground, to know what I want and don't want and not afraid to do it, to break free from the facades that withheld me from doing things that I wanna do. To just be me. And this learning process will never end, 'cause it's this journey in life that will teach me so much more, opening my eyes to the things unseen.

And God knows all of these. I know & am assured He's beside me 24/7 and I can't thank Him enough for it. I'm so ever grateful (': to have Him.

So take that leap of faith. He's there all right. No worries, no worries.

addicted to the teevee

recently when my parents bought the new shiny plasma tv, i've been doing a lot of staring at that idiot box and being an absolute couch potato, indulging in shows like Grey's, Criminal minds, CSI's, The mentalist, glee and blablabla.

Then lately I've begun to have mild nightmares of weird people holding knives, people dying and whatnot( it's quite hard for me to explain duno why) and I have a sinking feeling it has a lot to do with crime shows like Criminal minds and CSI. haha i know right ??? of all shows, these two give me goosebumps at night. maybe because I was watching it alone downstairs all by myself...

But I LOVE those shows ! :O No matter what sakai nightmares I'll have, I'll still watch it because, it's not real but in a way it's SO real, and it's the best way to keep you glued to your couch.

i realized my blog is lacking pictures 'cause i didnt install my camera's software innit so tak boleh. O WELL.

Who would've thought a movie like that can churn out good quotes ?

i'm done !

I quit my job (: just after a day.

Sakai right ?

'cause this job is actually like data entry, where I have to cut and paste names from green tech companies onto excel. And they need 7000 names.

I gotta go Google, search companies, cut and paste, yadda x3. I mean that's cool, kinda tough for a rookie like me.

But I quit 'cause of my EYESIGHT!! I cant stare at the computer too long, or else I'll succumb to headaches and mini-migraines.

Imagine if I do this for my permanent job when I start working. DIE la like that I'll be chained to migraines for ever.

So.... FREEDOM again !

i got it :P

Finally, I got a job hehe. But this job is simple and requires me to do it from home.

All I need to do is cut and paste names on the comp or maybe type out names ?

I'm going for the job briefing tomorrow (:

No more bumming around hahaha. Nice.

woow.

I was about to make potato salad today when I touched the potatoes and they were fairly firm, but not solid firm, you know ?

So what I did was, I GOOGLED :'how do you tell potatoes are rotten ?"

LOL. the wonders of modern technology.

So senang, things can be.

It also speaks a lot of how us humans rely on them too much, until common sense doesn't kick in.

Like my not being able to differentiate between a rotten and a good potato. ):

The Google results said that a rotten potato is so soft, that when you press it your finger goes right through it.

And mine doesn't. In fact, it's not even considered to be soft and squishy. Just, not solid hard. Like pressing your skin.

And I was paranoid of that not-so-solid-hard-like-i-expect-them-to-be potato so I turned to Google.

*moment of silence*

kk byebye havefuneatingyourpotatoes.

tell me something

I'm searching courses on websites of local universities now.

I feel so grown up !

:(

why, hello

How do you like my new blog skin ? (:

I thought that since 2011 is a new year, with me 'growing up', leaving high school once and for all, and hopefully getting a place in uni, I thought changing my blogskin would be appropriate.

*who would have thought blogs are so connected to us ??

I met up with my two closest friends when I was in high school - Sar & Felicia. It was a sweet meet-up/catching up, with a lot of food in between ! *gain weight like crazyyyy.

It also reminded me that we're all grown up already, and matured a lot i think haha. Andd how time flies ! Faster than you think.

Blessed Birthday Alicia Soon !!!

poopsie.

Registration for local universities are open now, and the closing date is in April. Honestly I don't know which course I should take. Dilemma !

I'm turning 20 soon, and it's time for me to learn things that I took for granted, things that I deliberately don't want to learn 'cause it's such a hassle... Oh well. In 39 days I'm leaving the teenage life and turning into an adult sooon ! I don't like growing up. ) : Who does ?

Nice lovely books to read. I like.

Now that's something to drool at.

Ok, moving on, I stumbled upon this beautiful scenery from my 2011 Calendar that showed Versailles, France. Really beautifuLLLLL.

Ok lah a little small but the picturesque of trees with leaves falling on my calendar is so lovely. :)))

very random i know this post. (sentence not formed correctly but idontcare)

Shedding colours

The new TV is coming tomorrow !! After living one 1/2 years without TV (no really, I'm not joking) the plasma TV is finally comingggggg !! whoopdedoo. Imagine catching up with all the TV shows that I had so dearly missed ; CSI, Criminal Minds, BONES (!!) [if it's still on], One Tree Hill [is it still on air anymore???], Grey's Anatomy... :-) Such bliss. Me and the TV, all in one room. [ugh, this is what an ex-stpm student would say, all brain cells literally FRIED & MASHED UP unwillingly]

So today Tim, Vera and I went out for our long-awaited berbonding time which we totally didn't do it last year because, I think we were all too busy ??? Talked and laughed and gossiped much (which was the whole gist of it..enjoyable!), hence our 'berbonding' session. Watched 'The Tourist' and I kinda enjoyed watching it, despite the fact that the chemistry between A.Jolie and Johnny Depp were kind of forced and not natural at all. But still, it's a pretty nice one.

Okies, time of reflection on 2010 :

1) Sat for STPM and is still alive (by the grace+strength of God)

2) Served in CF, grew spiritually from there (and from church as well)

3) Learnt to be so so much more responsible

4) Realized that if I studied, I'm less blur and more attentive (a true fact)

5) Is eternally grateful to God for being a Father I can rely on, good & bad times. And for being a God that is eternally the same, never changing.

So, I hope 2011 will be a good year. At least I know He's beside me all the way, 'til the very end.
