The Wedding
Filed Under happy, friend, work | 8 Comments
I am home early today! It’s been quite a while since I have the pleasure of cooking curry instant noodle for dinner, with the stolen egg from my houssy.
Well, not that early actually or else I would probably meet up some friend for dinner or take away food from the shop.
Yes, I’ve been busy and lazy to update. And well, nothing to update.
Nothing much I did. Life is boring. Work, work, work. Till 10 or 11pm half the times; which is a really big deal for me coz I am not the type that work late.
But I almost got used to it now! Geeez… >_<
So, yeah, no life for the past month, hopefully not till end of the year though. I even missed the important dinner for my houssy farewell & birthday. Nothing exciting ever happened.
Except for.. oh yes, I actually wrote an entry for my best friend wedding at the end of Aug! But I was waiting for the pics then and then I lazy forgot to post it up.
Here goes!
When we were young, we always teased each other on who would be the first one that gets hitched. But with passing time, nobody seems to make the first move; even when we are reaching the prime age! Gosh!
I guess we are just happy with current situation or we just don’t feel that we are there yet, even with the many naggings voices and society pressure?
But hey, thanks to P, someone from our group finally makes the very first step to the world for two!
The busiest girl among us, the one who always seems to be in focus and know what she wants in life and goes for it!
She’s the same girl who told my father not to worry and she’ll take care of me when my father is late to fetch me from school. I spent a lot of time in her house which is near to the school, waiting for the extra curricular or for my father.
I remembered picking a fragrant jasmine flower from my house & gently put into my pinafore pocket and leave it on her school desk during primary school as she loved it!
At Standard 2, she taught me the word ‘surat’ as I wrongly used the word ‘hadiah’. And I taught her a lot of Mandarin words that she could understand simple conversation in mandarin! But I seem to fail in mastering the Tamil!
In Form 3, we were in different class and again I would wait for her arrival in the morning. We spent many evenings going to tuition together and study for the SPM examination at my home.
And till today we just can’t stop teasing her on how much her curly fringe irks her!
But I guess, I felt sort of losing her when she went to uni, far away to the east coast & later on to pursue her dreams of being a doctor in another country. And when she’s back a year or two ago, she’s even busier than ever!
It is good to see her settling down with a respectable man and I wish her happiness and joy! And yes, kids. You might as well as kick off another project soon! 
And please, do find a little time in your life for us in the future. =)
The 2 doctors; whom I hope would give me fake MC when I need it in the future!
Congrats~!!!
My favourite Chin-dian girl, sweet little thing who never fail to post naturally when a camera is facing her! P's niece..
The girl's handsome bro!
All of us were there at the wedding ceremony! =)
So, who's next!?!

Girls’ Day Out
Filed Under shopping, friend, me, life, weekend | 5 Comments
It is a weekend where I spent the whole day by myself at home on Saturday, which I rather enjoyed. =)
On Sunday, it was even better. Even though we were “flown aeroplane” by DT, we still had a great day. (This post is dedicated to u, D.)
My friends of 16 years were there, LY , all the way from M’cca. And of course, Lina, the one with excellent sense of direction!
Anyway, as planned we had breakfast at Paramount before hitting the road to to Bukit Cahaya for a cycling session to start off the day. It was first for both of them and I met Ms Wong and the outing-gang there! What a nice coincidence~
There were running out of normal bikes and thus we took the bikes with baby seats, which is RM5 instead of normal RM3. Anyway, I got discount, free for the 2nd hour which is suppose to be RM1 (after asking for it when we returned! Sometimes all we need to do is ask, nicely.) =)
It was fun cycling around for 2 hours (10.30am - 12.30pm), seeing the animals, burning the calories when cycling uphill, enjoying the breeze down the slope, admiring the tulips in the freezing-spring-season in the 4-seasons house and taking pictures! (and them getting burnt from the sun while I was partially protected by cap and arm-clothes?)
After that we went back to my place for showers while they viewed some pics of Parames’ engagement, choose some dramas series and movies and burning some photos for Lina.
At 2.22pm, we went to view the condo which I know the way to go but not the way back! Oooppss.. But luck has it, or maybe it’s because of Lina, we managed to find a quick way to The Curve and avoid the bad jam!
Around 3.30pm or so we were in The Curve, starving! We randomly picked Lam Kwai Fong for lunch as Thai Express was ridiculously packed even at 4.30pm! Is it really that good? I only had once in Singapore and it was okay.
It was sort of confession and stories time where we updated each other about our lives, past and current. And even some juicy stories in the past! And of course the current age pressure, responsibilities as well as the future. And we talked about the things that we need and want. (She has no more need, that is why she is thinking of the things she wants!)
The things I like about old friends are you are able to pick up from wherever you left off. =)
Next we spent the next 3 hours or so hunting for a porcelain book for LY, GPS-understanding-session, shoes-hunting-and-acquiring (2 pairs for me! *grin*), Daiso, beauty shops for nail polish, buying Mills & Boons boooks and ends the evening with delicious guilt-free, fat-free, cholesterol free (at least 99% of each of them) New Zealand Natural ice cream! Yum~
I was safely sent home by 8pm but poor LY had to drive all the way back to M'cca with her grandma and cousins.
It was certainly a happi day for us, except the tiring legs. =)

Romance Is NOT In The Air~
Filed Under friend | 11 Comments
Girls grow up reading those romantic chick lit novels always hope for some romance in their life. Some watch it in the movies and feel, oh so romantic. Falling in love, meeting the right guy and sometimes, we justify our expectation and settle down with someone that we deemed good enough.
In real life, love isn't just so romantic. Hollywood needs to make romance movie so it that it sells. The same goes to the novel. And we are so easily sold. We wanted to believe it is true. We yearn for it. Longing our life to be like a fairy tale.
But what do we do if the one doesn't seem to be the one right from the beginning? A friend of mine finally got into relationship after many years of single-dom. I was very happy for her as she has found her happiness at last… Or so we thought.
But romance is not in the air. Dinners do not even come a couple times a week. Calls are not even frequent. The word love isn't enough to sustain the relationship. Romance is not his field, so he claimed. Sickness means dealing it yourself. Nothing he has done so far has even proven his love. Or so I felt.
Sadly, she felt the same too.
Is he even serious?
Shall she continue or shall she stops.
If I am her, he would already be history!
So, yeah.. good luck, hon! Remember, there are plenty more trees in the forest!

Deepavali @ 2008~
Filed Under festival, photo, friend, food | 11 Comments
This year Deepavali/Diwali seems to be simple. However I am happy to visit both my best friends’ houses although they couldn’t make it to visit each other with perfect good reasons!
This year, I became the volunteered organiser and sent out sms invitation to everyone. We met at Renu’s house at 11.30am and it was good to meet up with my childhood friends since… June. We were served a variety of cookies and muruku and next, the always drooling feast of tosai, nasi beriani, mutton rending, chicken curry and putu mayam. Yum~
Prem joined us with her sister when we were having the lunchie and she was getting married in December. All of her got an invitation at her wedding in December at a temple in Seremban! =)
And I insisted to take a group photo (for memory’s and blogging’s sake!)
Next, we visited Parames and well, this year she didn’t manage to get her Punjabi suit (I think she gonna kills me if she ever reads this). I guess it is the first year she wasn’t in her traditional suit! Too busy at the hospital, I guess. And I was very curious about her stories and experiences as a doc!
I had a good time taking pictures of her cute niece too! I think she just look perfect, like a little smiley angel which makes me very fond of her. Isn’t she cute?!? (a quarter chinese)
It was more of a catching up session with good food and best friends at Deepavali 2008. Hope it still stays the same when someone got married next May!

Yun’s Big Wedding Day!
Filed Under happy, friend, life | 14 Comments
She was my first roommate in the hostel. I have been praying for her to come as I was so alone in the lonely hostel room on my own when I just went to uni!
After being roomie for a year in the hostel, we moved out to a rented house and she was my roomie for another 2 years. Next we had internship and after that we were housemate for another 5 months.
Yeah, so we were pretty close to each other and she was like an elder sister that always take care and look out for me. She was a huge chunk of my life during the uni year. After graduation, we went on with our path of lives but we never fail to keep in touch constantly. =)
And now she is finally married! I am glad she finally found the special someone and settling down! Well, I hope she would have a happy and loving life with the lucky groom! =)
It just feels a little strange that my good friend is now married and become someone’s wife. Someone that I do not know that well but pretty sure he is a good guy and will treat her right. I hope our friendship remains as strong as ever.
Well, here are some pics that we took during the wedding dinner at Batu Pahat.
Here comes the pretty bride and the lucky groom!
Let's take a picture of sisterhood~

Thanks to Mr.1K that offered to bring us round Muar on the way to Yun’s wedding at Batu Pahat. I thought I have been to Muar before as the town looks familiar, at least I remember the bridge but I just couldn’t recall when and why I was there! Ahh.. my memory going down the drain!
Mr.1K brought us to taste the scrumptious food rojak and the cooling desserts that was so appetizing after a long 2 hour ride from KL! Yum yum.. =) 
The place is at Jeti Tanjung Muar Emas by the Muar river (I believe) and it was quite a big park with many local visitors!
We strolled along the river, took some pictures and analysing the pretty strangers that hold hand, trying to sort out the relationship of 2 girls and a guy. Yeah, it’s pretty complex when 3 of them were holding hand together!
After that, Mr.1K bought us some famous superlicious otak-otak, prawn and fish flavours! Due to our greediness, I forgot to take pics of it! But it was really yummy!
After that, we continued the journey to Batu Pahat and I have to put on my make up in the bumpy ride car. =)

My Best Friend’s Wedding
Filed Under fun, friend, me, life | 12 Comments
Finally, someone I am very close to was getting married! Or should I said, married! Yeah, it was my best friend’s wedding at Batu Pahat yesterday!
And thus some of my friends and I travelled south (a day trip) to celebrate with her.
It was a joyous occasion especially after the dinner which another good pal of mine and the bride got to catch up at the bride's house (while the guys sit back and listen or watch TV)! 
And after that, just right before midnight, my friends and I travelled back to KL and I had to keep the driver entertained so he would be alert for the whole journey.
Reached KL nearly around 2.45am and accidentally washed my hair and I had to dry it before I slept. Finally crept to the bed around 3.30am. And I have to work today. (=.=)”
But I am working from home today, thank God. =)
Still, there’s plenty of work to be done today and a virtual-meeting to attend. (=.=)”
Photos will be up as soon as I finish my work, unpack my bags, do the laundry, clean my room and catching up with my much-needed-rest.
Meanwhile, let me crept back to work! =(
Happy Crappy/Blue/I-Doubt-It’s-Exciting Monday everyone!
P/S : For best wedding photo, you should check out the wedding gallery of I Create Angel with many beautiful pictures!

Anger Goes Wrong!
Filed Under friend, life | 16 Comments
What do you do when you are angry or frustrated with another colleague or friend?
Normally we do what we always do. We complain to another friend that we trust; just to express how we feel. We either get a sympathetic feedback or advice on how to deal with it and move one.
How could such things go wrong, right?
It went so wrong, oh so wrong for my friend!
She was very upset about another colleague (A) at work and thus she confided it to another colleague, B. Their mean of conversation was through online chat messaging. Well, innocent enough.
She expressed her anger and frustration on how she felt about colleague A attitude toward work and stuff.
And to her horror, she actually typed it all in the wrong chat window, to colleague A instead of colleague B!!!! Holy cow! O.o
A knew that my friend was talking about her and fired back. It was too late although my friend tried to apologize explaining that she didn't mean to hurt her. (=.=)”
But the harm was done. What was said cannot be unsaid. There is now an ugly scar hovering between them.
So, yeah, double check before you release your anger next time.. =)

Goodbye, my friend..
Filed Under friend, life | 23 Comments
Death has always been far away from me. The only deaths that I knew were of both my grandmothers when I was 12 and 15 and my uncle which I wasn’t closed to.
So death to me happens to old people who were either sick or aging.
Young people are not supposed to die. There are so many things they are going to do, like getting married, raising family, going places, excel in their career, travelling, living a life, getting old and so on.
Or so I thought. It has to be right? Life has to be fair and give everyone a chance to live.
But I was so wrong. Today I was really shocked and saddened by news of a classmate passing away in car accident.
She was so young, so pretty, so smart and so having a life. And yet, without any notice or preparation to her family and friends, she was taken from us. Just like that.
I haven’t been keeping in touch with her for a long time since after school. But I remember admiring her as she was such a nice friend and daughter.
I felt that life is so unfair and so unpredictable. How could you just terminate someone life just like that. What about her plan in life and so many things that is waiting for her in her life? And the worse thing was when I think about her parents, aching so much for them.
It just makes me so sad that life could be so out of our control. It slows me down and makes me feel vulnerable. Life can be so cruel. It is so upsetting to think about that.
Rest in peace, AL. You will always be fondly remembered and missed.
