my life in a photo album

Yay, cannot wait for Lee hyori’s and Rain’s comeback soon~~~!!!

Finally mt Literature review for my final year research project is finish (still need to bind). Ya, finish just one day before deadline. That is why lar, keep telling myself don’t do last minute work, end up do even more procrastinations. So stressful life lar, I think I have not had a good night sleep these past few weeks already=(

Plus, my questionnaire damn lot of problems lor. I also dunno how already. Suan le ba, I will think about it after my exams. Exams, haih, another big worry…

Recently, we had a Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) workshop. Quite fun actually preparing the TPN but very difficult. kekeke. I keep squirting the liquid out of the syringe, make my whole table messy. They let us bring back our “work”. LOL.

At Setapak, sometimes life very stressful. kekekeke. Clara & me playing around with some selca / camwhore…I recently posted a video of her on facebook which was so funny. kekekeke. Generated many comments and likes =) Clara, you are a star, thanks to me…

On Monday, we had farewell dinner with my buddy Cherh Yun, who is graduating this year. So fast time passed by right? Soon, I will be graduating soon, in one year’s time. Anyway, my buddy line came, as well as seven dwarves because CY asked me to invite them.

Thank you to CY for the present + cake. My buddy line pic spoiled by my roommate who was also coincidentally having dinner at the same place. Another coincidence is the fact that our whole buddy line wore white that night without any planning~!

For those who have yet to see me, this is my new hair. Wanted to cut it short for a long time but delayed it because of course nite. I jarang2 post my selca pics here. LOL. Anyway, it looks okay, except I kinda want it shorter a bit more.

LOVE. LOVE. LOVE. Need more words? I absolutely am in love with these 2 bags, one from style influx (scallop bag) and another from kooky thing (vintage bag). Damn pretty lor, but came with such hefty price tags. So sad that I am too broke to shop now.

Today went to watch movie. Really awesome, esp all the Greek mythology thing. The effects also nice but I think the ending a bit too rushed lar. But seriously, nice and super effects movie. =)

*sorry today's updates seem short. I am really tired right now*

i am back woo-hoo: short updates about mangoes, suzane's birthday and daniel henney

EMINEM is back!!! I know there is plenty of controversy surrounding this rapper but I think he is really creative and awesome...his songs are so funny=) Check out his latest video, "We Made You" from album "Relapse".

Without looking at the lyrics, I think I recognized Jessica Simpson (spoof from her Daisy Dukes MV) with her current bf Tony Romo (the footballer), Kim Kardashian and her infamous bum, Lindsay Lohan & Samantha Ronson, Ellen Degeneres & her wife Portia, Sarah Pallin (governor of Alaska), Jason Mraz or Jack Johnson (not very sure), Amy Winehouse and husband Blake, Britney Spears (ala her Blackout album) & I think K-Fed in the background there too, Star Trek movie, John Mayer, Jessica Alba?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It has been a while since I last blogged. Have been really stressed out during my study week and exams week. Lots and lots of caffeine, bloodshot eyes, three hours' sleep (sometimes only two), pimples breakout and anxiety. Yes, exams are like the worst thing ever in uni life.

I did not go back home for about 2 weeks during exams because it was too bothersome. So on Labour Day, my mom and aunt came to see me in Setapak. Mom wanted to bring my dirty laundry back home. After that, we had lunch - Curry Fish Head at Chan Sow Lin. My aunt also brought some mangoes for me, which I shared with the rest of my housemates. It was so refreshing to eat sweet cold mangoes, especially during the scorching heat wave here in KL.

Midnight of 7th May, we surprised my roomie Suz M when she was sleeping. It was her 21st birthday. Ah Wei and I could not find any delicious-looking bday cake at Pistachio's so we just bought 4 pieces of different types of cakes and piece them together. That way, we can try 4 different kinds of cake. LOL. Us 9 housemates share to buy her bday present, a mp3 player;) She also blogged about it.

Her nickname in A-5-5 is Maria, because we like to called her our Filipino maid/slave (just a joke, no offense)

Right after my last paper on Friday 8th May, it was like a whirlwind. I rushed to pack all my stuff in Setapak to bring back to my home in Cheras. Spend the night at home before leaving the next morning to KTM station in old KL Sentral. There, Tze Im and her younger bro, Mei Chieng and Janice were waiting for me to take the Plusliner bus to Penang. (More in my upcoming posts!)

Thanks to Jia Ying and Tze Im for allowing us to stay in their houses as well as being excellent tour guides. Also thank q to Jia Ying's father for so willingly driving us around on his off days.

After coming back from Penang with MeiChieng, we stayed a night in Setapak. Mom came over to bring my luggage. Early the next morning, the 6 of us took a taxi to KL Sentral, skybus to LCCT and finally flying AirAsia to Kuching, Sarawak. I also flew to Sibu and after that, took a 7 and a half hours (!) bus to Miri...more in my upcoming posts!

Thanks to Lelia and her mom, Ah Wei and her bf, Janice, MeiChen and NgiikLing for not only providing us with accomodation, but also driving us around sightseeing, being excellent tour guides;)

I landed in KL from Miri late Monday night. BB spend the night in my house and the next day, we went to watched Wolverine: The Origins at Leisure Mall before I dropped her back at Setapak.

The movie practically made my heart beat like mad for about 80% of the time. So "kan cheong" ok?

I admit, I initially wasn't that thrilled to watch this movie. The X-Men saga is ok, not that great fan of it. But this movie is actually quite good. The effects and action scenes especially, very well-choreographed.

I also lurve the eye candy cast - Hugh Jackman (very hot!), Ryan Reynolds (always thought he was good-looking), Dominic Monaghan (cute!) and of course Daniel Henney (very very very handsome ok?). Liev and Taylor ok-lar...lol...

Yes, he is that extremely gorgeous Korean-American actor from my fave drama "MNIKSS"...

Actually, I would have enjoyed the movie more if not for this group of 3 students sitting behind us. OMG...if I did not have any manners, I would have shouted and sweared at them. Not only were they talking ALL THE FREAKIN' TIME throughout the movie, I could also feel people kicking my chair most of the time. WTF? It came to a point where my patience has reached its limit and I told the girl sitting behind me to "stop shaking my chair, thank you." I gave them some dirty looks during and after my movie. Hello? Some of us paid money to watch a good movie ok? So pls be considerate ok? It's not like you paid more than the rest of us. What douchebags...the next time I see them in LM, I will be sure to give them the same dirty looks again...stupid idiots who spoilt my movie...wtf...

my A-5-5 housemates (^-^)

I turn my head to the east, I don't see nobody by my side,
I turn my head to the west, still nobody in sight,
So I turn my head to the north, swallow that pill that they call pride,
The old me's dead and gone, but the new me will be alright...

In A-5-5, my Setapak home, I am not the only blogger. My housemate Clara Sia and roommate Suzane Mah also blogs, although they are relatively new. Previously, they have blogged about “A-5-5 housemates” and now I have decided to copycat follow in their footsteps.

HAMSTER My name is Hamster and this is my narrative about my housemates.

These are all my housemates. As you can see, we come from all different paths of life – We looked different, we come in different sizes, colours and species.

SUZANE JR. Suz JR. is the stylista of the house. Although sometimes she looks more like a “fashion don’t” rather than a “fashion-do”.

She is also really lazy. Always want people to carry her around. I have told her relentlessly that she needs to exercise and go on diets but alas, my words has had no effect upon her.

Secretly, though, between you and me, I think she has a crush on me.

PROFFESIR He is the genius of the house, although sometimes he can be very stressed out by exams. I always see him wearing his graduation robes so sometimes I wondered when is he ever going to graduate?

Due to his stress, he gets his studying energy from drinking ginseng. The way he drinks is kinda funny, maybe coz he has really short arms. Shhh…don’t tell him I said that.

LITTLE J @ KAPO He is the smallest among my housemates. Always very cheerful, I have never ever seen him sad or angry at all. Literally. Loves to drink milo. Looks like he is doing an ad here right?

See? Even as he is getting hanged, he is still forever happy. So annoying sometimes (=.=!!)

JAY CHOU Then there is our rapper wannabe, Jay. Other than practising his vocals and choreography, he also likes to read. I caught this photo of him as he looks through my Pharmalink magazine.

BACON She is very camera-shy so I have hardly any pics of her. I like Bacon although sometimes Fiona likes to throw her at Suz M. Well, cannot blame Fiona-lar. Bacon always gets thrown to Fiona’s side when she sleeps. Bacon reminds me of a flying pig (with wings!) whenever she gets thrown around.

My housemates and myself are such computer addicts. Always glued in front of our laptops. Luckily I am such a great multi-tasker, thanks to my 8 handy hands. Suz JR likes to chat online whilst Jay is always looking for music ideas online.

Meetings and discussions are an integral part of this house. Often, we have to discussed many things to keep the house running or if we want to have birthday celebrations or etc. Although sometimes we have disputes, we always managed to keep our meetings running smoothly.

See? We are a happy household. Suz JR is seen here patting our Little J. So cute (^_^)

But sometimes Little J also gets bully-lar. What to do, he is the smallest. Jay Chou very bad here, he don’t let Little J see the magazine with him and Proffesir.

This pic taken when I found a packet of Lexus biscuits lying around. Everyone were kinda hungry so we had a hard time deciding who should take it.

This photo looks like Suz JR is dead right? No-lar, she is just sleeping. But I dunno why we were all so wuliao that day, observing her as she is sleeping. Fiona says that it looks like we were attending Suz JR’s burial.

Eventhough we all do not always get along but it is nice to know that we can all still live in harmony together. What can I say? We are just one big family, I guess. Now, as the exams approaches, I hope that we can all work together and study hard. Gambateh everyone!

kfc with friends cum housemates

I cannot believe my short break is over already...I am going back to Setapak tonight. It has already been half a semester. How time flies. Now is study time for Finals...sob sob...

______________________________

This is not really a post about food coz let's face it, who has never eaten KFC before in their lives, right?

In Setapak, we are "blessed" by few fast-food joints, namely KFC and Pizza Hut. There is also McD's but that one is about 3 bus stops away, nearer to our fac.

Recently, the KFC near our place, in Setapak, just wrapped up their renovation so we decided to check it out. We, here means my housemates. Well, minus three of them anyway.

So this is actually a post to highlight pics of my housemates, rather than the food. It is a rare opportunity for all of us to eat together, considering the fact that there are three different courses among us, and of course, three different time schedules.

We hung out a while after finishing dinner to of course, what else but to camwhore?
