Black Vs White

I had a hard time falling asleep yesterday, although being very tired. X(

ANYWAY,

Can you believe it?

It's already the end of the year. Oh gosh. Any of you noticed how damn fast the time flies this year? It seemed like just yesterday that I took my first step into Intec. Something must have made the clock tick 3 times faster than usual. I can't believe it's going to be the New Year!!

Anyway it seemed really fun seeing everyone doing this end year thingy. ^__^
I am so doing one too. XD

Taking a glance back into 2007, I'd say I'm pretty satisfied with this year. I mean, it's okay, like not too good not too bad.

Wait, hasn't EACH year been an okay one for me? XD

Alright at least there's something different this year. For the past 17 years I have been stuck in Melaka. Not that I hate it or anything. I'm a very Melaka person. ^__^

But this year, like for the first time, I have been away from home for studies. From getting my SPM results, being interviewed by JPA (that's how I met Kate *smiles*), waking up before 8 to check the results, going for Form 6 for one month (it was probably that one month that I appreciated being with my friends the most), getting lost on the way to Cemara for registration, meeting new people in Intec, getting all stressed up for I-don't-know-what, and sending the seniors off. Sometimes I still wonder how I made my way here. Back in January, if one had told me all these would happen to me in the next 11 months, I would have laughed my head off and tell you you're totally out of your mind and that it could never happen.

Yes, I have pics too.

When we celebrated Mei Mae's birthday party for her. Don't you forget mine!

The BBQ night at Mich's place. I simply love this pic. ^_^

That wonderful one month at Malacca High School. They had a farewell party for me and Ah Siok! *touched* My very close friends and I totally love this pic too. I know it's a bit dark, but oh it's the camera phone lar.

And then, I joined Boston and met these nice people.

The Space Tunnel -me and Mei Yueh did the globes. ^_^ Thank you, Sheng Kai.

Remember the Comic Fest, Mei Yueh? Introducing Leoz.

The cute, talented, cool, ambidextrous comic artist. I think I did tell every single person on Earth already. XD

I just have to include one more pic of him.

Did I mention I saw Lin Yu Zhong live? That's him.

I was about half a meter away from him. Although very to the side. =)

I even joined the basketball team. Funny eh?

I won't forget the fire flowers.

And pretending to look emo.

That's the last CELL meeting. X(

Our hard works for the OC campaign! That'll include Kate, Professor Chun How, Kamal, and me.
Don't forget our class's supposedly farewell party. ^_^
The times in Taiping.

We had fries better than McDonald's. Look at Bu!

And the last event that kept me alive, the 6 days trip. ^_^

Of course, I can't say it's a totally grrreeeaaat year cause nothing REALLY fantastic happened to me except getting the scholarship, which seemed almost fantastic once upon a time. Duh.

That was how I wasted my year. n__n

So a very big thank you to everyone who has made my year a nice one.
-To my dad, of course, having sacrificed so much (ie. getting my certs for me all the way from Melaka to Shah Alam - that wasn't a smooth ride, mind you)
-To my dear sisters for sticking to me all the time, in other words, being totally manja. It does get pretty irritating sometimes.
-To my brother, for erm being my brother? Okay he did drove me back to Shah Alam.
-To my mum, I miss you.
-To Jas, Mei Mae, Mich, Shirleen for always being there for me and for being my wonderful friends, despite our little arguments sometimes. =P
-To Mei Yueh and Ah Siok for always gossiping and teasing me. XD And to Mei Yueh again, for inviting me to the pizza party. It made a whole lot of difference.
-To Li Lin for being Doraemon. =P
-To Sanddy, Alicia, Shierin for being my lovely housemates. ^__^
-To all Bostonians for being Bostonians. And for making my first semester a colourful one.
-To Lisa and Vanny for being my long long lasting friends. And not forgetting the gossiping and stories.
-To Miaw Jyi, for reminding me to thank her. =P Of course, for her friendship, the songs she sang, the words she said that never failed to make me a happier person, and for being our very own "Jay Chou". =)
-To Soon Yi, Joshua and Manford for cheering me up and making me laugh so much. And for being the 4408 trio. And for the craps, I appreciate them a lot, Manford.
-To the other seniors - Joanne, Lee Yung, Bu, Carolyn, Sheng Kai, Kah Long, Hwee Lin, and the list goes on, for being such nice seniors.
-To anyone who have made me pissed off.
-To anyone who have made me smile.
-And to everyone else that I missed out for being alive so I am not the only one on Earth. You guys contributed the most. =)

Well, of course I can't miss out my new year resolutions in this one!!
It's not much..

NumberONE, I think I should really study harder!! I don’t think I’ve studied hard enough this year. X(
NumberTWO, I’ve said this every year and failed, but yes, I still want to be thinner. XD
NumberTHREE, must save more, spend less! Do remind me on this one from time to time, won’t you?
NumberFOUR, er.. be happy?


That's about it. ^_^

See yah, 2007!! Hello 2008!!

It just sank in when I left KLIA. They are GONE. Really really gone. Whoosh! Off they fly.

*wails*

It's amazing I didn't cry. Even after seeing Sharon crying.

Well, what more can I say, next year no more Chickenman Hottie lor.

*sigh*

I am so tired now.

Zzzz~

There you go, seniors!

This is for the Pimp. *laughs* Special one you know! He should stop being mean to me. Oh right, he's flying. Won't have the chance to be mean to me anymore. X(

Well, I'm sending them off tomorrow. I hope I don't cry. So embarrassing.

Okay enough said. Moving on, I've been sleeping better again. And I am feeling sleepy now. For some reason.

And before I forgot, a very very HUGE

CONGRATULATIONS

to my dear cuzzie, Siok Hui for getting her string of 8As in PMR! She's so smart, I am so jealous. XD

I'll tell you if I cry tomorrow.

*dozed off*

That's me. *points at title*
I think I am having some sleeping disorder, really. It's 5.38 in the morning and I can't sleep. I've been lying down on the bed for like almost two hours and all I can do is stare at the ceiling.

That's how I look like, deprived of sleep. *points down*

I guess this explains why I have been waking up at noon everyday, saving money on breakfast. I go to bed at around 2 or 3 in the morning and I lie awake for at least an hour before falling asleep everyday. Meaning I sleep at around 4 everyday. Except for today. I can't sleep at all.

And so I decided to do some exercise on my fingers.

That's Ichimaru Gin from Bleach.

I've always liked the way he grins. So evil one. He's one of the bad guys anyway.
I wanted to do Grimmjow at first (I think he is totally cool), and I did but it turned out really sucky. Okay this Gin isn't anywhere near perfection too, but it's better than my Grimmjow.

And I am waiting for 154 to be out!!

Feel free to criticise. XD Okay don't so cruel lah. A little is enough. =P

Anyway I really liked the colours of the candies. XD

Don't I sound so bored, not being able to sleep?

Someone once told me that sometimes I looked really unhappy and looked like I was always thinking of something important. Well, okay the unhappy part is wrong lah, but the thinking part, yes I admit. Minus the word 'important'.

Yeaps, sometimes I feel like I think too much. Which brings us back to my sleeping disorder. They call it insomnia eh?

I have so much on my mind right now, basically all craps. But they kept me so awake. I think about like everything.

You see, recently I have been really really obsessed with photography. And I was just thinking about it so much, I think it took half of the space in my tiny brain. And I just discovered this blog, OnePicADay through Blogs of Notes and I totally love his pictures. It's not a photoblog or anything, but I like it!

I changed my ambitions so many times throughout this 17 years, as I grew from being naive to money-minded and glamor-seeking to being realistic to wanting to do what I really want. When I was 5 to 7, I wanted to be a teacher, cause it just seemed so easy and fun. In my tiny mind, all a teacher had to do was to teach stuff like 1+1=2 and A is for apple. It seemed really fun with those pictures and graphics. And then in Primary Two, a friend told me she wanted to be a doctor. So I thought about all the money I can make, and how cool it would be to wear the white coat and being labelled as 'Dr. Lee' and I said, 'Yeah, I wanna be a doctor too!'

I kept that in mind until Form 3 when I realised I wasn't going to be smart enough to study medic and I would probably go crazy from the stress of it all. So I decided that I wanted to be an engineer instead. Up until Form 4. It was then that I realised what I really had in mind and I knew it wasn't going to be engineering. The annual education fair in school came and I was nearly driven mad by all the various design courses.

I came upon Interior Design, which I wanted to do so so so so much. Then I found out about Graphic Design, Fashion Design, Hair Design (yes, even this caught my attention), Comic Illustrator, Photography, and so much more. Oh there was even this thing called Virtual Reality which was super cool.

Yes, I wanted to do all that. Anything to do with designing. It's a bit unrealistic, as many have pointed out, as I was doing really (okay not REALLY, but quite) well in Science. Well, at some point my dad actually said I could do Interior Design. I thought about being realistic and decided that I could to go for Architecture.

And why, you ask, am I here doing engineering as my major? I have no idea what made me do it. I feel really stupid now.

But I found out that plenty of those doing Engineering didn't really want to do Engineering at all. So, I am not alone. That's a little comforting.

Anyway, back to Photography, I'm totally obsessed with it now. I am really no where near taking nice pictures, I am taking lousy pictures, my brother takes better pictures than me (great he is so going to fly up into the sky) and I will have a totally long way to go if I were to learn. I am like the so very beginner of the beginners.

One thing I learnt from the Perasan Guy a.k.a L, is to learn it by yourself. I've seen some tutorials online but I barely understand a thing. =( I guess I'll have to go really slowly.

I am so going to take this up when I get to the States. It'll be really cool if I can be a freelance photographer in the future. Oh I know I've said many things that I've failed to accomplish but no harm thinking about it. *winks*

So, that's basically one of those craps going through my mind that is causing me a sleepless night. Also, the thought of having to go back to Shah Alam. And the thought of sending the seniors off. And the thought of what I am going to do later. And the thought of my koyak sneakers. And the thought of being so broke. And the thought of whether the New Year plan will work out. Yes, everything.

It's 6.22 already. I do feel a lil sleepy, but I can tell you, once I lie on my back, I won't be able to sleep.

Sorry this is such a long post. Need to kill off some time.

Those who read till the end, thank you. XD

It's finally Christmas!

This house is all set for Christmas!

Everyone's crowding around, I can't even get a proper view! XD

Twinkle twinkle little stars~

Of course, must have Mr. Santa Claus. This one is riding on a motorbike! What happened to the sleigh?

And the blue snowman! It's so cute. =)

It's a street filled with lights, joy, and laughter.

Got rabbits also! Eh no, it's reindeers pulling the sleigh. *laughs*

The huge Christmas tree where everyone is crowding around to take pictures.

Peace and Merry Christmas, says my sister.

Last but not least, it's bedtime so say goodnight to my dear little teddy. =P

So once again, here's wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas!!

*winks*

It's not even Christmas yet and I am already thinking of the New Year. Reason? I'll most probably be staying at home watching tv on Christmas, so there's basically NOTHING to look forward to except the New Year countdown. *sigh*

*Hint: Will someone like DATE me? Okay not date lah. I just want to go out on Christmas Eve! *laughs*

Speaking of the New Year countdown. Every single year at this time, I watch the Singaporean Channel 5 and every single year I see this advertisement on the New Year countdown at Vivocity. And every single year I'd secretly wish I could go! This is pathetic. This year I see the advertisement again and I so badly want to go out there and party!! Too bad it's in Singapore and I don't happen to have any tickets! *pout*

I don't know for sure how nice it is, but it sure seemed really cool!

And I just came across this website Youth.Sg Blog which is giving away free passes to the party!! OMG.

There's no way I'd be able to go even if I get the passes anyway. *pout again*

Too bad. I am so jealous of whoever gets to go. I bet Hady Mirza will be there. And many many more.

And don't ask why I have been blogging like everyday. Remember I said I am so very bored? I am, seriously. I am dying here.

Michelle just dropped by here just now and asked me,

"Eh I'm reading your blog. You very free hoh?"

YALAH!

There's almost nothing I can do online anymore.

You know what I do everyday? I wake up in the afternoon (don't ask), have lunch, go online (check mail, friendster, facebook, blog), watch Bleach, watch watever I can get my hands on, prepare dinner, take a bathe, go online again although I don't know what else to do, watch tv while going online, sleep at around 2 to 3. And in between, I blog lah of course. Like, what else can I do????!!!!

Oh yes, I'm attempting to go jogging again. My dad was like, "Are you fine? You sick ah?" Anyway he has been trying to get me to jog since I came back from Shah Alam.

First attempt, worked out fine! I even joined aerobics.
Second attempt, failed. It looked like it was going to rain.
Third attempt, failed also. Looked like going to rain also. Vanny not here also. X(
Fourth attempt, still not attempted. That'll be tomorrow. Eh, I got appointments. Looks like failed also.

So much for going jogging and working out.

I'm done with Bleach anyways. Still waiting for Episode 153 to be out. While waiting, trying to watch Naruto, since everyone has been saying it is so nice.

That's all my symptoms of being overly bored. Thinking about New Year when it's not even Christmas. Blogging everyday. Attempting to work out. Going online everyday. Watching as much anime as possible.

And blogging everyday.

Okay I am telling you I AM VERY VERY BORED.

Dear Santa,

It's the time of the year again! My favourite season of the year! And I am writing this letter to you. I know I haven't once wrote to you in this entire 17 years of my pathetic little life, but I suddenly had the urge to do this (okay I am so very bored) so I hope that this letter will reach you before the big day and that you'll spend some of your precious time reading this. Since I am sending this via email, I'm pretty sure it'll reach in time right? XD

Well Santa, I certainly hope that I am in your Nice and not your Naughty list because I am pretty certain that I have been a nice little girl this year. I did not cry so much. I did not steal. I did not kill. I did not drink. So do shower me with presents!! My socks will be ready and hanging right beside my bed k?

Alright let me just get straight to the point. My Christmas wish list!!

First of all, (as stated in my previous post) I would certainly like to get a new digital camera of my own, for convenience. So that I can take all the pictures I want and put it up on my blog! Of course, for memories too. And remember I always wanted to learn photography? This could be a good start. XD Next, a new pair of sneakers. Well mine is really really koyak already and I am so broke and the new year is approaching. I badly need one. X( The Jay and TVXQ albums aren't necessary so I won't ask for it. See, I am not greedy!!

Another thing, Santa, I just want to have another wonderful semester next year, just like my first semester. Now that the seniors are leaving, I'm still trying to figure out what to do during my free time there. And who am I going to turn to when I get overly depressed over Calculus or GPA or whatsoever. No one to teach me snooker, bowling or ice-skating. No more field trips. And most probably Mei Yueh will fly too. So Santa, just let me get through the next semester well. Hopefully I'll continue make new nice friends and have a memorable semester. More bondings please!

And last but not least, please don't let me be alone this Christmas! XD It's always so hard to get my friends to come out for Christmas. =(

That's all I ask for, Santa!

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

Yes we got our Asian Idol.

Hady Mirza?

This is so totally UNEXPECTED!!!!!
OMG!

I had expected maybe Jacklyn or Mike or Mau to win but not him! I guess he probably won because of his looks.

Okay I admit I had followed Singapore Idol and had been crazy over him. His voice was the best among the rest of the contestants, obviously. But not THAT good seriously! Jac was way way way much better than him. In fact, I thought he was the weakest among the six idols. And he won.

So unexpected. Really.

But still, can't deny he is cute. I still like him.

By the way, I think the song "Berserah" that he sang was one of Taufik Batisah's (the first Singapore Idol) song!! Correct me if I'm wrong. XD

*winks*

OMG I am so finally back!!!


I'm sure all of you realised I have been missing in action for a few days?

We looked cute right. *laughs* I know I know.

I saw a lot of Siok's relatives. Must be her ancestors or something. Eh, Siok? XD
And this is the very very very large Sleeping Buddha. Not at Kek Lok Si, no. XD

The next day, off to Pangkor Island. It's my first time there too!! (I haven't been to a lot of places in Malaysia to be honest XD)

In the ferry!!

Then, we went up to the open-air. Whoosh, goes the wind! See, Siok is so happy with the wind. She almost didn't want to leave. =P

Splash Splash!

We even went snorkeling. Oh I have ALWAYS wanted to do that!!! Okay maybe I didn't really snorkeled this time because I can't really see well without my spectacles, but I did see some fishes. I should have worn my contact lenses. X(



And of course, the usual must see in Cameron includes strawberries,



Bee farm,
And the Tea Plantation.
Up-close. Tea leaves. =)

Oh so happy playing the swing at the Rose Valley.

I didn't get to play with the swing. X( So I rode on Doraemon!!! XD




At night, we played with bubbles! Wheee~

And enjoyed some very delicious CENDAWAN GORENG! Yummy yumm yumm!!


Stayed at First World. So packed.

They were all decorated for Christmas.




We got all wet in the boat!

Wanna feed fishes anyone?

We even get to watch the 4D motion picture!

This is the S.H.E. Malaysian version.

And this is the F4. Malaysian version also. XD




So, end of story. Now, I have to think of what to do next besides rotting at home. *sigh*



ANYWAY, because of the trip, I missed dear Lisa's birthday, which was on the 13th of December.


10 years of friendship and still counting, babe! Love ya so much! <3>
*psst* A hot guy actually called her up on her birthday as a surprise! *jealous*

Right, took so long to do this. My arms are aching. Lol.

Chaoz!
