Its been a busy busy month….. first my phone line got fried….yes you read right….fried…..burnt….kapooop….sigh.

Can only get online using the PC in the upstairs hall…but all my stuffs are in THIS PC….sigh…dilemma..dilemma..

let me see…. been busy with  students examinations…oral exams….

had to travel to Teluk Intan for an Oral Exam….no no..i wasnt sitting for it..haha i was the Examiner ^_^

Call me a Country Pumpkin ..erm in this case..City Pumpkin ??

I have never been to Teluk Intan. More less drive there!

But i did drove there. Julie accompanied me.

Both girls…Both has never been to Teluk Intan…Both has never driven that far on our own…

It took us around close to 2 hours before we reach Bidor - where we stopped..had their famous " WanTan Mee " and bought loads of goodies like the " Chicken Biscuits - better known as " Kai Chai Pen "  heard of it ? its yummilicous.

It was another hour or so before we reach Teluk Intan. We did finally found where we were suppose to be.

Teluk Intan is indeed a small town. I mean , perhaps coz there werent anyone around to really bring us sight seeing. We did , however found the " Leaning Tower " of Malaysia. The Famous Croocked Clock Tower right in the centre of town. Malaysia’s very one Pisa. But it was already closed so we couldnt go in.

You’re gonna laugh when i tell you this. We ended up eating at Pizza Hut that night. ahahaha

I was done with the Oral Exam by 2 something the next day. Hurry back to our Hotel…jumped in the shower…and headed home.

We reached home around 7 something.

and yes,we stopped at Bidor for "WanTan Mee" again. =)

Was indeed a fun journey i suppose. Time flies coz both Julie and I talked NON-STOP….even into the wee hours of the night…hahahaha

was definately a fun trip.

Besides the food stops we had in Bidor…we will always remember the Water Buffalos…hahahaha its another story altogether. If you wanna know , you’ll have to ask me ^_^

I would like to introduce to you all my new pets.

Not a dog…or a cat ( pllllleeaaazzee )..definately not a bird ( eh ? )

Got myself some lobsters. well two to be exact.

Its Pet Lobsters. Not the eating kind. Not that i have ever had lobsters before…..and seeing now i have 2 as pets , dont think i will be consumin lobsters any time soon.

Neways , i got myself 2 Blue Lobsters. Meet Ah Fat @ Prada and Fendi. Why these names?? i hv no idea. Not really a fan of Pradas but i though the names sounded nice. I have designer labels Lobsters! hehehe how cool is that ?And as you can see from the pic, they aren’t very blue. Have them in bro’s aquarium. He already has a lobster.Can ya see it behind ? its much much bigger…like 4 times bigger. Spent the whole morning just watching my lobsters
in my bro’s aquarium.Watching the other fishes swimming around. hmm……

what an interesting way to spent my morning..eh ? p>

After lunch today @ tea break ? went by to a Pet Store. And i saw these adorable puppiessss!!!!

i just wanna take them home with me. There is Cockeler Spaniel ( i think thats how ya spell it…)…who wasnt really interested at all.

There were Shih-Tzus….cuties cuties. Kinda remind me of my neighbours puppies.One was in a cage all by itself..while two were in together all cuddle up..sweet.

Then who can ever resist a Chow-Chow ??? These two…a girl ( the smaller one - sittin up ) and a boy ( the chubbier one - sleeping @ resting )

i wanna take them home…..anyone of them.

They both look alike right ? but the male chow-chow was very proud.couldnt be bothered with me….^_^

Then of course a Jack-Russell . who btw was a very active pup. He was the only one that was kinda excited to see me. The others were like…. " Hmm…only another human…..siiiggh " kinda expression on them. I have always like them coz i enjoy watching " WishBone " - remember ? . I especially like them with a patch on the eye. That way i can call them Patches.i know it sounds cheesy but i have always like that name. Before my family and i named our dog Lucky - i wanted to name him Duke or Prince or Warrior . But at the end we decided on Lucky which by the way is a GREAT name. He is indeed our Lucky Dog.

i am a dog-lover. i love dogs. i love my Lucky. (hugs & kisses )

I intent to have atleast 3 dogs when i have my own house one day.

A Great Dane or a Saint Bernard

A Golden Retriever or a German Shepard or a Labrador

A chihuahua or a Jack Russell Terrier or a Daschund or a Shih-Tzu.

yes yes i am sure you’ve notice….Large…Medium…Small..hahaha must have all sizes ma…only balance. hehehe

how am i ever gonna cope with 3 dogs ?  hehehe

well i am sure i will be able to. ^_^

I’ve been thinking of changing my mobile lately…

eeekk…actually im constantly thinking of changing my mobile phone…if you live with me..hahaha you’ll know what i’m talking about.

Jie : I know i know but i cant help it. I love Mobile Phones!!!

Well…im usually attracted to the latest mobile ad…be it on the telly or mags…sigh…its a weakness i tell ya.Ok so here’s a brief time line of my mobile phone histories

1997 - Siemen - cant remember the model but it was slim and as long as my palm.

Got my first mobile right before my SPM . was after months of hinting & beggin. hahaha - compare it now - it was practically a brick back then..lol

1998/99 - Ericsson PH 768 -BLUE

The array of colours to choose from and it was a flip phone although the flip was useless..hahaha.it was small and hip.I still like the phone.

1999/2000 - Nokia 3210 - BLUE

The first Nokia phone with erm..interchangeable colour housing. COOL. Got to have it. And so i got it. and yes..it was BLUE again. What can i say..i love BLUE

2000/2001 - Nokia 8210 - RED & WHITE

The in-thing at the point was small phones. A smaller version of Nokia 3210. Got red coz it looks HOT! - Dad was worried that i might loose it or drop it coz it was sooo small. And yes the fact that it has changeable covers was a big attraction. Any colours or patterns to suit my mood ^_^ - fav housing was my M&Ms housing cover. Blue background. ^_^

2001/2002 - Nokia 8310 - White Limited Edition(couldnt find a pic of it in the white limited edition)

Sis got me this phone from UK. So totally love it. It was the phone with White-LCD background light and so with the housing being White - it was gorgeous. And it has the FM Radio and headset - totallly wicked!

2002 until present- Sony Ericsson T68i 

And yes another phone from UK - First phone with Cam - although it was a separate unit. And it has Bluetooth and plus it has COLOURS. Love the functions.And yes chose the Blue one ^_^ . And up till now , i am still using this mobile.

at one point - i was using both my Nokia 8310 & T68i - for work purpose as well. was a principal back then. ^_^

2004 until present - Samsung SGH-600C - Silver

When i started my current job, i though i needed a extra line for work related calls and a post paid line as i was using pre-paid. At this point, after several non-flip phone , been wanting a flip phone and Samsungs looks the nicest. And at that point the craze was polyphonic ringtone. ahahaha if ya guys call me often , you’ll know my other obsessions with ringtones. Annnddd..it has got a CAMERA!!! Whats a mobile without Cam ???

FUTURE ( perhaps sometime in 2006 )z

Samsung SGH-D820

.

slim - slide phone. Rotating Camera. Mp3.Bluetooth.Dual Speakers.it goes on. And its in Black. A easy colour to match with any of my outfits! hahaha yes Mobile is an accessory ^_^

Samsung SGH-D600

Also another slide phone. not as slim as SGH-D820. But in terms of function definately compareable. Outlook, erm after seeing the actually SGH-D820 - i would say SGH-D600 is prettier. Its shinier & glossier. What can i say…i have a soft spots of shiny things! hahaha

Which would you choose ?

well not only am i a mobile phone-craze person - i just love new modern gadgets. I was at one point nuts about getting a digital camera. and i finally got it. ^_^ to fufilled all my needs to snap photos wherever i go! hahaa - My Pentax Optio S6. I carry it with me everywhere i go.=)

i would loveee to have a Nano iPod. a new desktop pc or a laptop would be jolly - good. I also intent to get a new DVD Hi-fi set - got my eyes set on either Samsung or Phillips . And yup my telly needs to change as well.should i get a flat screen ? or swap my 29" with a smaller telly or a bigger telly ?

Gosh at the rate i’m going, i might as well end up being married to a Electrical Appliances Store - erm…Seng Heng ???     Sen-Q ???? hahaha well i think the man that owns these stores would be a better choice - or i could just get a job there! hahahaa

i know i know..i have no idea why i fancy stuffs like these. i just do.and yeah yeah i know you guys are prolly gonna say that i am soooo materialistic.

but hey what can i say..i am but but a a materialll  materialistic girl. ^ @_@^

Was digging thru my old stuffs and i came about my old year book collections.

1992/93 until 1997 ~ 5 books altogether , my 5 year term in STAR school.

no no..i do not like have any weird photos in it or such..hahaa…i betcha guys were wishing that there were..hehehehe

Well in my opnion, our year book may not be as " WOW " as our Western counterparts but we did a pretty good job.

Pages and pages of photos and old memories among all these pages.Faces of people i knew back then….people that i still know now…people i wished i have never met and of coz….faces of those i once admired or had a crush on…..arrhh…sweet warm memories…well more like a bittersweet thingy. ^_^

Looking thru it , im sitting here wishing that i had been on the yearbook committee or something… ^_^ and i came across an old poem i wrote…this was ages ago…i was sooo kiddy back then…i was in Form 4..mind you..and i did hand in more than just one work but guess they only managed to slot on short poem in. =( sigh  although only one entry…i recall many of my friends congratulating me about it..hahaha.. was sort cool back then..hehehe

If ya guys were my former classmates/school mates…does this sounds familiar ?

Friends

Friends

Friends!

Can’t live with them

Can’t live without them

They come and go

Like the seasons flow

Stop for awhile

And they will glow

But the glow will not last for long

For with another season, they’ll soon be gone.

"Dream A Little Dream"

Stars shining bright above you, night breezes seem to whisper, "I love you".
Birds singing in the sycamore tree, "Dream a little dream of me".
Say "nighty-night" and kiss me.Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me.
While I’m alone and blue as can be, dream a little dream of me.

Stars fading, but I linger on, dear.
Still craving your kiss, I’m longing to linger till dawn, dear.
Just saying this: Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you.
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you.
But in your dreams whatever they be, dream a little dream of me.

Stars fading, but I linger on, dear.
Still craving your kiss, I’m longing to linger till dawn, dear.
Just saying this: Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you.
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you.
But in your dreams whatever they be, dream a little dream of me.

Today was not a good day.

On my way to work.

Met with an accident.

A stupid car reversed and bang right on to mines.

Frustrated.

The other driver was a meanie. Rude and Mean.

Spoke to him calmly and politely but he was loud and rude.

Couldnt stand him.

Told him to just make a police report.

Went to Police Station, made the report.

Waited for hours. Luckily the officer that wrote my report was in a good mood, the other officer was very..erm can tell..he was in a bad mood.

Went up to see the Sergeant. A nice lady. Explained to her what had happened.

Ok. Settled. Went home.Tired from the waiting.

Need to sent car for repair tomorrow morning.

Sigh.

Not a Good Day.

And to top it all , after speakin to the other driver and told him we’ll make a report, got into my car , Daniel Powter’s " Bad Day " was playin on the radio.

Dont know either to laugh at the situation or to get irritated with it.

i think its funny. So . I’ll laugh la.

HahaAhAaHaHAHAhahAHahAhAAhAaAAaHaHaha

Erm…cant hardly wait to get my bill after getting the car repair tomorrow. Sigh

Happy Easter ya all!!!

Hope you guys had a great time Egg Hunting today!!

I wish i had been on an Egg Hunt. hehe…or atleast get some chocolate bunnies!! yummmyyyy

Neways, a good friend came down to Klang and we met up for drinks.

And yes, we went to Jeth Ice Cream & Coffee House. I am a fan of the Ice Longan with Milk. its yummy!! and yes i enjoy going there these days. =)

Had a great time catching on old times and talking nonsense..as usual. The place was crowded and we were loud. All four of us! hahaha and suddenly it was pouring cats & dogs ..we all thought its just another reason for us to hang around together for a longer time. ^_^. But we all parted by 10 pm. They wanna catch a mid night show…the only thing i wanna catch is my bed! hahaha

So we all went home. Feeling giddy all the way. Like im drunk but didnt drink any alcohol. hahaha..guess it must have been all the air we sucked in while eating…and talking and laughin all night long…hahaha

No no..not drinks as in drinking..i mean..not DRINKS..but just plain drinking…erm you know what im tryin to say ? nvm nvm ^_^

Ok, so last Sunday, a bunch of us met up for drinks.

Nope.Alcoholic drinks were not present. hehehe althought we were talking about it. hahaha

A bunch of us ? well its just us all primary school mates. 6 Kuning ‘92 .

There was Albert ( see see..i mention ya name first ok! ) …then Alice…Lilian…Andy…Ing Keat and Jack @ Jeak King.  Well…Andy, who was away workin his butt off in the States came back to Klang so thought we all shud meet up.Alice sms-ed me and told me bout it.

Initially,it was suppose to be a Bah Kut Teh session on Sunday morning at ..dont be shock ok…but it was suppose to be at 8.00 am. Yes..you read what  i wrote.

Waaaayyy to early to cosume BKT. Furthermore,it was the Telok Pulai BKT. In case you guys forgot, i grew in that area…. ?? nvm =p . couldnt go coz had to work. And if ya guys recall…Sunday was like the best-est day to sleep in…coz it was raining. yes yes..i was draggin me feet off me bed. sigh.

Neways, Alice called in the afternoon…told me that they will be meetin up at 9 pm for drinks at Jeth Ice Cream & Cafe in BBK . So ok..that i could make it! hahaha….called a few other members of the 6 Kuning class students but only just us dedicated members showed up! =) includin me of coz.

I showed up late…i apologise!! hehehe but atleast i show up ma..hehe better late than never =).

I had this funny drink…blue in colour..called Blue Angel i think…bleak..not nice. Should have stick to me favourite drink…Ice Lemon Tea…heehehe.

It was really great catching up with all of ya. To think we’re are all a bunch of 26 years old..26 already!! we all first became friends when we were 7 yrs old..some of us only 6 yrs old then.Its been more than a decade.wow….we have all come a long way . I think its really wonderful that the first 6 years of our primary school lives we shared together….and then we all moved on to different school in our secondary…and we all now lead a different life….i mean..its really wonderful coz we are all still in touch with each other. I think we are still very much the same bunch of goonies we were back then. Although back then little incidents  like pouring glue on another head wasnt that erm…well received…but its great we can laugh at it now. of coz…how could we forget about those homeworks …sigh.  Like i said in one of my earlier blog entries….i like the primary years the best!!

It was great catching up with ya guys.Really missed organising gatherin these days…sigh . But its nice eventhough we dont meet up all the time but we still managed to keep in touch after all these years…… its really nice. ^_^

P/S : Thanks Alice for calling us up and gettin us together…..the next trip only us 3 girls eh..hehehe you me n LiLian.. That way..we girls can talk about all the HORRIBLE things the boys used to do! hahaha .

oh yes…brought my cam to snap some pics …took it out and then forgot all bout it. sigh..nvm..next time then.

Why life doesnt always go the way we wanted it to be ?

Why the path we chose always leads us to no where at all ?

Why we always end up with what we do not want  ?

Why do people we despise are always a part of our life ?

you know,i’ve given enough advises to my students and friends to know the answer to all of the above. as a matter of fact on paper i could ace all those Qs.

So why am i sitting here at wee hours of the night asking myself Qs that i could give the perfect answer to .

Life is just so full of " Why " s

its just so darn …argh!

just when you thought you have got the solution and you were prepared for it, fate comes around you and slap ya silly.

i know i know…its God’s will

or i know i know..thats why we have Plan B.

sometimes i wonder.

gosh…i wonder alot……what if ?

thats the constant Qs in my head.

What if i this…what if i that….

what if i wasnt even ME ?

what if……………….

it wasnt a bad day….nor was it a good day….

but been feeling down all night…….couldnt shake that feeling off……feel like driving 200 m/ph down the highway with the radio blasting in my ears….seriously…well if only i could do so or that i have a car that can go that fast without falling apart….or a really cool stereo system…that would be nice too

OR

buy a dozen or so bottles beer or better still…can i get a dozen or so ;Long Island Ice Lemon Tea or perhaps a Northen Light cocktail ? dont know if i can hold my drink but if im gonna get drunk…might as well be drinkin something i know i will like. And i like Ice Lemon Tea and i like the Northen Light.

if i go to sleep tonight…….can i wake up to a totally brand new spankin’ good day ?? or better still can i just wake up to a totally different brand new me ? is that possible ??

ever gone to sleep wishing to stay in the dream ,in that sweet slumber away from here and never needing to answer to anyone….never ever waking up ?

just never wake up. ever.

have you ?
