*DONK!~*

you might be wondering "WHAT THE HECK is with that title?!" oh well... One of my embarrassing moments i suppose.. here's how it started..

I woke up yesterday feeling still as tired as the day before and with a pounding head. With my eyes shut, I went to the bathroom for a wake up shower. I thought it worked. well.. maybe it did.. But it wasn't enough obviously.

Outside, the rain was pouring so heavily like it is right now. After breakfast, I got ready for tuition. Using my umbrella for only the second time, I showed my grandmother how cool it is. One button and it opens, one button and it closes! and my grandmother was amazed! (well.. sort of...)

I text-ed Andy and asked if he would be going for tuition as this private class is just for both of us. and since he lives quite far away and its raining pretty heavily, so it was going to be quite dangerous for him to ride his motorcycle. He said if i can, then he can. So, i was like, "Lolx. I'm walking."

And well.. Drama began.

*click* umbrella opens. i waited for the car to exit my apartment. then i followed behind. remembering previously that the bar thingy that lifts and closes for the cars to exit automatically, i stood close to the left side of the thingy. however... when i was walking past it, i forgot it existed. (well.. its normal but the first time for me.. and being still so blurcase!!)

SUDDENLY! my umbrella got heavier and heavier and...

DONK!

the metal bar thingy HIT MY HEAD! (so embarrassing!) but i pulled a straight face because the security guards were seated right opposite me in the security booth watching. i walked away as quickly as i could. and when finally i was out of their sight. "OWW!!" and i rubbed my head.

DRAMA over.

then, i walked under my umbrella, forgetting that my head it still hurting, and the rain stopped. so i closed the umbrella. when i did, it started again. and the event repeated a few times before i finally reached the tuition center. it was CLOSED. but thank God andy came, and in a CAR! he was driving, and i was :-O. lolx!

he waved me over and i joined him in his car waiting for our dear tuition teacher to arrive. we waited for half an hour. called his a few times but to no avail. no one picked up. so i text-ed him and told him we were leaving.

Andy sent me home in the end.


p.s.: 3hours later i received at text from our tuition teacher saying he was in a vip meeting.

p.p.s.: Andy is a really terrific driver. (you might wanna buckle up your seatbelt man.) and thanks for sending me home.

p.p.p.s.: I couldn't remember why i had a ghastly headache for the rest of the day until last night. btw, my head is still painful! LOLX

XOXO till next time.

Logging out,
B-minor

amusing day

ok.. so here goes..
i started reading today at 12a.m. till 6(something) a.m., when mum came in the room and scolded me. I still don't know what made me start reading that book(Shame). I didn't even like it to begin with. It is a biography of an Asian British citizen, but its just sad. Anyways, being the ever-so-compliant daughter, I went to sleep eventhough I was not tired. I still can't believe I stayed up so late and did not feel tired at all.

Things changed when i slept. I was too lazy to get up, though I still did not feel sleepy. I just wanted to laze around.(I'm such a Schwin)

I finally got up and continuing to read the book. ohh yea.. I read till 3:10 i think. not sure. And was so worried I would be late for my first day of BM tuition. I sms-ed Lay Chia to apologise in advance.

When I arrived at her house, I read her reply and thought she meant that she might not be going only. But since I was already outside, I called out for her. Her mum answered the door and I greeted her. She was all smiles really.

Things however took a turn. I asked her, "where's Lay Chia?" and she showed me upstairs and then she went in the bedroom to switch on the fan.

Then she asked me,"On the bed or chair?"

At that, I felt most puzzled and asked her, "Aunty, where's Lay Chia?"

She immediately had a shock and said," You are looking for Lay Chia?? I thought you were my masseur! No wonder I thought it was weird they sent a young chinese girl to massage for me!" and then she and I burst out in laughter.

It turned out she did not know I was coming and Lay Chia was in Prangin Mall due to a miscommunication between the both of us. Me thinking tuition starts today, she thinking I want to start only after this week's holiday.

Before I left her house, I teased her mother and said, "Since I'm already here, why don't I just massage for you!"

p.s.Maybe I should get a career in Beauty Therapist or Masseur since I already look like one. Oh Bother.

Siobhan!

Her name is Siobhan and she has just been born into the family. Words can't express the joy she's brought into the family!! A day late, born today(19/10/2007)at 1829 hours, 10cm C-section on Sze Ling, weighing 5.14 pounds, she made us all smile and laugh at her cuteness. Remembering my cousin bro, Eugene laughing whilst saying, "No matter what she looks like, fat or thin, she's my little girl!" We could all feel his joy. In my opinion, that hearty laugh was a laugh that cannot be expressed by any words. Agape Love. Maybe that is how God feels when he create each and every single one of us.

The name Siobhan is pronounced as "shiv-awn".
Description: Siobhan is another Irish form of Joan meaning "God is gracious." A popular name in Ireland where the anglicised versions are often used. Siobhan McKenna, an Irish actress who died in 1986, was considered by many as a woman who personified all that was good about being Irish.

Truly, God is gracious. Welcoming her to our family, is our greatest joy. I was so happy when i heard of her birth. But a few minutes after it sinked in, it dawned to me that I just became an AUNTY!! *screams* haha. oh well.. Now grandma's become a great-grandma.... and we've just seen the beginning of the next generation.

While at the hospital just now, they talked about the day when Eugene was born. Oh the JOY and how time flies! Here are her first few pictures ever taken. Probably the first 5. But i only have two. So it will have to suffice. LOVE you, Siobhan! You'll always be that beautiful in our eyes. =D

Penang Hill Hike

So it all started with me "I'm not going.. Sorry... Don't want to find excuse not to study... Exam.."
Then... *phone vibrates*
" u going hiking tmw?--ck"
hmmmmm... ok... uh oh..
so after a while of sms-ing, we decided that he will tell me if he is going then I'll go if he does.. but because I was lazy of waiting, i assumed he would go. But after informing Steven that I WILL go, *ahem* ck said he won't go because he will have other "functions"---(sleeping) haha.. thus, begining our sob story for today.

ME climbing up Penang Hill, THANK GOD with 18 other FRONTLINERS!! (guys i seriously thank God you were there. would have died without you guys!)


After having a restless night, waking up and sleeping and waking up and sleeping and waking up and sleeping again and again, I seriously wanted to take my mum's offer on not going since it WILL be Slippery... After snoozing my alarm clock again, i just HAVE to get up. (get up you lazy bum!)
heavenly shower woke me up as i stood under the refreshing shower*emergency brakes* *pause* *fast forward*

okay... so there i was in the car sending my first sms of the day.. to someone i know who would still be asleep but whatever... =P and after mum bought me breakfast, we were heading out via Kampung Melayu route when -viola!- a familiar orange shirt caught my attention! Adriel Ng and his bro, Isaac were at the bus stop with my teddy bear! haha! (urm... ohh... sorry.. got caught up with typing..)

so we called them over and they hitched a ride with us(me and my mum) and they said they were waiting for Pastor Tom who never showed. So i called Ps. Tom up and then we found out he didn't know he was suppose to fetch them. Oops..
So we waited for everyone to show, then took the vans to the place where would be our starting point. No one warmed up. aiks. and so we walked upwards like 30-45 degrees slanting upwards.. torturing.

People like me, who has never hiked for years since a tragic situation which included the death of someone, do not have the stamina to climb it. My heart rate increased its acceleration way up to the feeling of an inconsiderate driver who has his car music with disco beat on full blast. Yep. and that wasn't because i was holding on to Daniel's hand as i teased him just now. =P Daniel was great, helping me up, pushing(and pulling) me when i was about to give up, literally. he felt my pulse, and he was really shocked. Steven was such a slave driver in the beginning that we all nearly died. At least I did. The others really pushed themselves to their limit, of course i did too with my lazy bum who don't do exercise. So it was a big GOOD change when Ps. Tom asked Steven to take the lead while he watches at the end of the line.

but then after our 20 minute rest with the weird interesting looking smiley mickey mouse look alike moss growing on the rock,

that was some good rest, not for everyone, but i paced up of course, with my motivation factor singing and dancing in the freedom we know! we're gonna dance dance dance! haha. and handphone pop-ed up actually even before our rest stop.

I must say, the best parts about the hike was going downhill or on a nice flat land after going on those oh-so-slanting surfaces which kills you softly by the step where the only motivation to move is getting to your goal and the end of the road! haha! we reached this part where no one knew where to go because it was like a crossroad except with no way else to go. Steven came to the front and then we realised we were suppose to climb up on the seriously slant surface holding on to the rope one at a time.

we had to do it on our own because it was not stable enough to hold to people. my cap dropped so i turned n almost slipped when i looked back. I am so not a person who LURRRVE heights. i was really horrified!! it was like *jack and jill when up the hill to fetch a pail of water...* the rope was the only thing that is keeping you from rolling down that slope. like OMG!!(white chicks)

i so appreciate the rest stops. love them. ohh and staircases, they kill. got my heart rate up again. it still makes me wonder how come when climbing with the rope was not that tiring, walking up those cemented staircases are.. and we do that like everyday... hmm...
ohh... and water's the BOMB!! like you will love it even more because of that hike! haha!
so we continued singing and siao-ing the whole time. at one of the rest stops, starts with a "C" can't remember the name, we waited for the train to come up then waved at the people in there.
the end of the hike was cool. its like we did not expect the journey to end, but it just did like *snaps finger*

so... canopy walk and cafeteria! which would you choose after 3 hours plus being in the "jungle". simple answer, we all went to the cafeteria of course! like DUH.... =D
so since everyone ordered lunch except for Joshua, Daniel and i, we went to buy tickets instead. after walking to and fro because Digi said "your service is temporarily unavailable, please try again 3 hours later." hahah!!

conclusion, injuries during the hike, none, before, got a cut pushing the church toilet door open for suzanne. haha. 19 of us are really insane. 19 was the number of people who went. and surprisingly, i made it! woohoo! haha.
so, got 3 new friends, Abigail and Clement... i think... i really don't know the other girl's name.. hmm... someone... help?? anyone?? hello??

and ohh yea.... someone remind me again why i went hiking?? it was fun, yea... but, i prefer the end, not the 30-45 degree surface!


p/s: Daniel is my best friend.
p.p.s: i just wrote that so no one will kill him. haha.

yea rite Dan. no one will kill u 1 k... my best friend helping me is not a crime, is it? LOL

Life Without Part of Me

Part of my life, if not all revolves around people. We are all connected to each other one way or another. I remember this cartoon where this kid wished that all her enemies would be gone. When she woke up the next morning, she was the only person left on Earth. Have I proved my point? Well.. No.. But let me try to talk a bit of that so I can prove to myself that what I say is a fact. (Yea, not proving to you. Proving to me.)

So here goes.. Love Actually version.. Everyone is somehow or other connected to each other. As we stand in a circle. You might find that you are connected to a certain person in a certain way. In Friendster, there's the "1st degree friends", "2nd degree friends" and "3rd degree friends". If you continue with the list, I think you will reach to a full "Planet Earth". If that is not enough for you, you can try to contact the citizens of the Universe. Of course, you'll be considered "weirdo". But heck, I'm just trying to prove my point to me that we are all connected. Am I making any sense to me? like DUH.

Continuing what I wanted to say at first...

My life revolves around people. People.. You can't live with them, and can't live without them. They can make you smile, make you frown, make you into a clown. Like come on, you haven't tried to make others laugh? You must be someone who lives to see people wail then, you mean arse.

Some friends..

You wake up one day knowing or not knowing you will get to know a new person, so when you know that person, Congratulations, "You've got friend!". Maybe you got to know that friend through another friend of yours. What started off as a perfect friendship might end up in the recycle bin, rubbish bin or maybe, just maybe, it will continue being that perfect.


Recycle bin- 1. "hey! I need your help, can you help me?" then, the next minute after you helped him/her, he/she 'evaporates' until the next time your help is needed again. Sad..
2. "I'm starting to agree with... I think you are really....*think of something bad*".

You thought everything was going fine. Keeping in contact is a daily thing. (If you don't call, he/she will.) So you wonder what really is the problem. You insist on knowing the truth, knowing that not knowing would hurt you as much. Worrying about a friend feels terrible because you love your friend. That is why you are friends in the first place. Alright, so maybe some people do not really love anyone else besides themselves and their parents. But you shouldn't make that you. Love is a gift. To be able to love and be loved.


Rubbish bin -1. waste.

Empty promises... Wasting your time... Your money... Your effort... Your emotions... Overall wasting your life! Your friend just gets fed up with you and throws vulgar words and chairs and plates and glass and bullets and atomic bombs and missiles.. and finally.. The WAR ends without ending. You stop talking to each other forever. Puh-lease! G.A.L.(Get a Life)!! You only live once!


Happily ever after-1. rare.

Go ask your parents how many friends they have since childhood. since high school. and if they do have, How close are they? Not very? See?? Everyone is so busy with their lives that they actually forgot to have one! Ish Ish! "Out out brief candle, life's but a walking shadow." It is so short. You remember it as yesterday when you just started school. But you are growing old so fast that it can get scary. Or rather, it is scary! Some people would rather watch a horror film sequel than remember how old they actually are, i think. =P
