*slurrps..*


Yesterday Eunice, She Dee and I went to Pyramid to get Eunice's mom's birthday present!
      
            ::Happy Belated Birthday, Auntie..(although you don't know who am I...)::

*gagh* anyways, Evo and Ming Choi (my classmates) were planning to go for the Haagen Dazs ice-cream buffet at pyramid after class.. at 2... but Mrs. Fam.. our thinking skills teacher managed to bring the class up from 12-1pm.. *hurraAh! now I finish classes at 1 every Friday..!!*

Reached there, we saw, only Mei Yee and Evo.. Ming Choi had something to do.. So she couldn't join us.. (anyways, she's not much of an ice-cream fan..) hahaha.. anyways, I can feel.. tonnes of fats trailling behind me now.. *stop rolling your eyes!!* I ate 9 scoops of ice-cream.. --tsk tsk.. non stop! *burp!*-- record breaking for the moment! hahaha.. I even out beat, Mei Yee and Evo.. they managed to help themselves to 8 scoops!
after that I felt like puking already.. hehehes! no more ice-cream for the month! but it was really worth it.. *brings out calculator*

1 normal scoop of ice-cream at Haagen Dazs costs = RM8/-

Promotion= RM25/- (eat all you want..)

I ate 9 scoops - 9 X 8= RM 72

RM72-RM25= RM47 ...

*not bad*.... hahahaha.. very very very worth it! :D I saved RM47... *you all can stop rolling your eyes now*...

times in need..


Q: How's things?

hrm.. how do I start? although this might be a very very very very.. simple question.. and most of the time.. most of us.. I'm very sure at least 90% of the people you ask would actually answer "fine.." or either "normal.." or my usuals.. "still alive, not dead yet.../ surviving.." -- yea you guys get what I mean..
But ever wonder there's more to the statement behind it? anyways.. I thought things are going on well for me.. you know me the usual.. the sun is always shinning over my head.. (most of the time!-- but trust me you wouldn't want to see the dark side of me..)
back to what I was saying.. last Sunday, I was chatting with one of my church friend.. and she told me things about myself.. things I thought I could assure myself that things going on currently aren't that bad after all.. everyone sees me as a very cheerful... calm person.. but yet, one special one did see all this in me.. something that I always thought no one actually would see all this in me.. something that I don't know how to put into words.. suddenly it hit me.. suddenly it become so real to me... suddenly I asked myself.. what's happening to me.. what's going on?! but anyways, here's what she told me.. 


 "u still smile, not that you don't.. but your smile .. can be quite hesitant.. i can tell.. there are troubling thoughts..."

 

"and also, u seem to be having something heavy on your shoulders.. like a burden

and not only that, it's as though you are questioning yourself about your own abilities of whether certain things are really worth it or not..."


"

u wished for something greater.. it's as though you are longing for something to happen to take you out from this 'rut', you are waiting, but you do not know what you are waiting for.. u just wanna wait... but you do not know what you are waiting for like that.."


"you are looking for avenues to express yourself..."


"

u didn't bother to tell, cuz like u said, u can't word it out

and also, if u want, u wanna cry it out.. and make yourself feel better.. though at times, the tears can't come out"


"also, u r waiting for that 'touch' from God... just that you do not know it

and u are at times, doubting ur own faith... ur own ability...

and u do not know where u stand"


"

to you, church is something u do often...it's almost a duty

it's almost a routine..."


"

u were hoping each time, that there would be a 'miracle'...

you are just waiting for it to happen"


 

I am so tired... I didn't know what to do at that moment.. --- and everything that was said by her.. it was like.. "bingo!" -- that was how I felt at the very moment.. tired of waiting.. tired of everything..

hahaha.. sounds like someone's going to go into depression.. but I assure you, I am alright.. basically.. I'm just tired.. not only physically but also mentally..

But I know.. God does not want me to be in that kind of situation.. He wants to be more involved in my life.. my daily needs.. and I've been doing my quiet time daily.. *aherm* hahaha I do it every morning.. before classes start.. it really helps me throughout the whole day.. and I know for sure He's in control of my life.. :) I need not worry about anything! :) *cross fingers...*

lost...


taa-ah-da-ah! due to the busy weekend schedule... Esther was unable to upload pictures (Xi Voon's Birthday!).. and update her blog! *rolls-eyes* ah-nie-ways... what matter most is that I'm back!

-tracing back... to.. Friday

it was XI VOON's belated birthday..

yeah.. around.. 5.30-ish.. I received a call from Jan's phone.. but Brian speaking.. asking whether they can come pick me up or not.. so I agreed!! anyways I don't have things to do also.. except for homework.. after that we went into Taipan-- bakery shop to get something to bite on.. after that we proceed to Ken2 house.. reached there, sat down for a while.. watched Black Eye Peas video clip - don't find them very fascinating though..-- but Ken2 wanted to watch it.. so we can't say no cos' he was the tranport provider.. :) so around.. 6+ we left Subang.. was quite jam.. and we were in front of this Kancil.. who does not have a 'P' sticker.. and 'mati enjin' like 2 times on the slope.. *ain't gonna laugh..* but anyways, her car almost hit Ken2's Waja.. but that wasn't a problem.. anyways, when we reached Xi Voon's -- house.. or more like.. apartment.. Riana Green.. or as she would put it.. it's a
RESORT! hahaha.. ^^ Amanda and Jo Ann was already there along with.. Edward...
there... the picture's kinda blur.. but here's Edward.. or should I say Eddie! :D

anyways, we were all there.. seriously! this is the first ever outing with perfect attendance -- if you people don't get what I mean.. perfect attendance means.. everyone showed up! normally we'd be missing one or two little rascals.. we everyone showed up except for Sze May... --she's in S'pore.. ASEAN scholarship scholar.. don't play play.. --- *shouts* "We.. MISS YOU SZE MAY!!!!... COME HOME SOON!!".. yah anyways, back to Xi Voon's thing.. everyone reached except for Francine.. *sigh* once more.. my poor poor stomach.. have to grumble and make noise for a while... (p.s. I didn't eat lunch you know!)... ^^" things.. going on around us while waiting for Miss Koh..


(boy in blue)- Brian, (little boy behind)- Jan, (boy who's showing his hp as if he's acting for a nokia advert)-Ken2
after a long wait.. Francine finally arrived.. and we managed to sink our teeth into Xi Voon's mother's speciality! :) *burp!-- scusee' mee!* later on.. after dinner/clean up.. we took a stroll down stairs.. enjoying the strong breeze at night and the water gushing down the.. *aherms..* fountain.. not watefall! lols! the place has an excellent landscape! :D after that, we found this little 'open air pondok'/ hut/ I don't know what you call that but it was like made in the middle of the pool.. and around it was water.. was so cool! we sat there and chit-chatted and snapped a few pix! :)


(L-R)- Jan, Brian


Jan, Brian, Ken, Edward 
(L-R)- Jan, Brian, Kenand Edward!


(L-R)- Jan, Brian, Kenand Edward!

somehow, our dear Kenneth, who's seeking for a wee bit more attention from the camara!


group picture.. - aiyah! I don't want to name all of 'em! you guys can figure 'em out eh! the only person missing is Edward!


 
err.. have NO idea what is Xi Voon doing.. and I blinked!.. *grr... and.. the rest look good in the picture.. *whines!*


 and.. this young man here.. is trying to sing his sorrows away.. hah! the poor people staying in the apartments there must wondering.. whether it's a person singing or a frog croaking. lol

...err.. Jan's there and 1/2 of Brian's body.. but hey! I'm actually showing you the landscape there.. can you see the swimming pool on the background?! it's super cool! the hut..well an open air hut is in the middle of the swimming pool!


snapshot of Francine, Me and Xi Voon!


..group 1 meeting.. discussing about their.. sam-si's'! (translation:heart problems/relationship problems)


group 2 meeting.. hahaha! I like this picture! super cool! ^^

anyways, after that, we went back to Xi Voon's house.. used her computer for a while.. and we left her place at around 11.45.. :) it was a great outing overall! :)

accidents?


First and foremost.. hey!! just wanna ask you ppl something.. the background of my blog has a picture right? or am I halucinating! *scratches head* since when did I put in a background? but OWH WELL! the colour seems to matches.. so it looks VERY nice  :) another thing! Jo did you add it in for me? lol! if you did.. --thanks ALOT! :)

anyways.. here's my story of the day... as usual.. Saturday afternoons we normally car-pool to go down to church for CA's.. Jan was driving normally.. on the right lane.. and suddenly this black kembara came out of no where, signalled and came SUPER CLOSE and really mean SUPER CLOSE, one more cm and he would be able to scratch/bang Jan's car already.. and the crazy part was.. he was SOO SOOO SOO close to me cos' I was sitting at the passenger seat - the person who has the highest risk of getting injured! and.. then after 5 seconds, I went ..."JAAAAAANNN!!!!" and Jan realised that he was coming really close and honned really long.. and you could hear the sound of breaks screeching...Kenneth STONED behind.. >.< the guy driving the black kembara was also shocked! well he did apologized after that.. all of us *thank GOD* reached church in one piece.. was still shocked though.. mom called right after that incident and I was still in that shocked state.. I couldn't really talk to her..

conclusion: kembara drivers are scary!!! *seriously* the first time I set a kembara- it got into an accident! :/
