Taking a Break

Sorry people! I'm kind of taking a break from blogging while saving some interesting things to blog about for my new domain. So, you won't be seeing a lot of new posts here now. =( And so sorry too because I don't want to reveal my new address because there are some more things to settle. Don't worry, it'll definitely be ready on 29th Jan!

25th January is coming in less than a day time. And in case you're wondering what's up with this date, that's the date my results will be released. And duh! I'm nervous but, I'm remaining calm and committing my results into God's hands. Please, please pray for me! I want this to be good and I know it'll be because I have faith in Him. May God bless my results and that my results will be awesome to glorify His name. Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.

So, besides the 25th Jan issue, I've been working out lately on the treadmill and bicycle. It's tiring but, I feel really good and I know every minute of the pain, I'm slowly turning to the life of a healthy person. So, yes, it's worth the sweat and pain. Also, I just started taking guitar lessons. Today is just my first day and I like it! I'm taking the lessons with Lynna. Reason why I'm taking guitar lessons again is because I need to brush up my skills. I need to learn the right way in order to play better next time. And not forgetting, I need to improve so I can play for church one day.

I guess I better take a rest now. Don't know why I'm feeling quite tired. Had been out every night last week and it's not a very good choice. Got to go rest before I start my workout today!

P/s: Please continue to pray for my results. I will call the college in the morning to ask for my results. My first time so, please pray for me! =)

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Update: I called to ask for my results this morning. Actually, I called for so many times but, it was too early. So, I called after my friend texted me. Thank you for all your prayers, I got 3 As and 1 B. Yes, you got it right. B for Physics. I'm very depressed but, no matter what, all glory to God. Praise the Lord for the rest of the As. There are so many things that happened to cause this B. Well, at least we all know who are those who played the important role in getting this B. =( Please, continue to remember me for your prayers. I really pray that I don't need to be returning to college so soon. So many things to do and I really need more of the time I have with family and friends. I don't want to waste it for other unnecessary things yet. Lastly, congrats to those for their awesome results! Praise the Lord and may God's name be glorified through our results!

Random Rambles

There’s always a particular point when I will have nothing to blog at all. And at that time, I will always abandon my blog and wander aimlessly in time. Having nothing to blog about is very disheartening to me because I really take this as if it’s a part of me. To have the opportunity to blog to me is an opportunity to express myself.

As I read other blogs, I envy them for having so many things to blog about. No matter it’s about relationships, traveling to awesome places, advertorials or even random bla-blas, I always have this little dream in me to blog like them. To have so many things to say about something is what I’m secretly wishing for.

However, I always find myself setting a limit when I blog. It’s either I should prevent myself from saying something overboard or criticizing something that I’m unhappy with. And sometimes, I couldn’t even blog about something I’m very emo about especially my feelings to people. I think I’m too afraid of saying something that might cause people to hate me and attack my feelings. I’m such a coward!

And because of this, I want this to be one of my 2010 resolutions. That is to be more brave to blog about anything that I feel like talking about. To be able to blog more random bla-blas and stop limiting myself too much when I blog.

It’s time for me move on to be a better blogger. And hope you’ll find a better me in my new domain by end of this month.

Progress

So sorry for not updating often lately. I have been quite busy. I am currently working on my domain to get it done before 29th January.

The design is not done yet. In fact, I haven’t get started with it! =(

However, I’m trying to complete a few more pages. And I’m now thinking whether to import all my posts here to the new domain or not. Please give me some suggestions. What would you all like? A fresh new domain or a domain which has all my old posts since the first day I started blogging?

I’ll let you all decide since you are the readers. So, decide well! =)

I guess I better get back to it now. Stay tune!

I'm On My Way

Guess what?! I'm on my way to setting my new domain! I'm really excited about it but, please wait for about 2 weeks more. I need time to import all my posts since 2005 and I still have a web design to settle.

Hope it's going to be done by 29 Jan 2010.

Btw, I just got back from church today. The sermon today was awesome. Pastor preached about spiritual gifts. Something that I have been thinking and praying a lot about. And I am still discovering that very special gift God has given to me.

This is just a short, random post. Will update soon with more complete posts. =) God bless!

Poor Vision

Don’t get me wrong. It’s not the vision of my life or what-so-ever. What I mean by poor vision is my eye-sight.

It’s getting worse. =(

I went to make a new pair of glasses 2 nights ago and I was told that my astigmatism has increased! However, my degree for both eyes are still the same. At least I could comfort myself with this.

I chose a pair of simple black framed glasses =)

My previous astigmatism for right eye was 1.75 and now, it increased to 2.00! As for the left eye, it was 1.50 and now, it’s 1.75.

I wanted something like this! But, to be practical, I had to ditch this. =(

Apoo… I think I need to reduce my time of watching TV while going online on my laptop and also the DS Lite habit every night. Otherwise, my eye-sight will get even worse!

Meanwhile, I think I better start eating more carrots. Help~

Once My 2nd Home

I had spent half a decade of my life there.

The place where I once called my 2nd home because that’s where I spent most of my time. This place, which has a very special place in my heart, I call it St. Co.

Everyone will grow up one day. And for some people, school is just something less important and after graduating, they will soon forget about it. But, I’m different.

Why do I love my school so much?!

Not only did I got to know so many awesome friends whom I am so thankful for today, St. Co was the place I grew up learning so many things that I wouldn’t have if I was at another school.

All the things that I had gone through, whether it’s about Leo Club or Prefectorial Board, had taught me to be the person whom I am today.

Honestly, studying in St. Co for 5 years is one of my happiest moments in life. I’m just so thankful that I got to be part of this school.

Sometimes, I feel so funny and silly when thinking about my 5 years there. But, that’s also why people call it ‘the good old times’.

Yesterday, I just got a call from Lynna while running on the treadmill. She asked me to share something for the Form 1 orientation. I didn’t think much but, I just agreed.

And now, I’m panicking. I don’t know what to say. There are so many things to share but, I need to find the right thing to talk about. Must pray about it.

I know this is quite a random post but, I just suddenly got this reminiscing mood at the moment. =)

Best Friend TV

I’m not sure whether I have mentioned this here before. TV is my best friend.

Hahahahahaha!!!

Yeah. Seriously. Since young, I love watching TV. I watch all kinds of shows; drama series, reality shows, talk shows and etc.

I think that’s where I developed my interest in acting. Because I tend to imitate and learn how the actors portray their characters. Soon, I learnt how to cry easily. Interesting eh? Too bad no where for me to apply my skills. =(

Btw, that’s not the whole point of this post.

So, here’s how I spend my everyday routine with my best friend:

My routine usually starts in the afternoon.

3.30pm – 4.30pm AEC ‘You’re My Destiny’ (Taiwanese drama)

4.30pm – 5.30pm AEC ‘Stepping Out’ (Singaporean drama)

7.00pm – 8.00pm AEC ‘Table of Glory’ (Singaporean drama)

8.00pm – 8.30pm Random channels like AFC, HMK, AXN

8.30pm – 10.30pm 8TV ‘Boys Over Flowers’ (Korean drama), AEC ‘E-News’ (Taiwanese) and WLT ‘Gem of Life’ (HK drama)

10.30pm – 11.00pm Random channels too

Usually, from 8.30pm to 10.30pm, I will be switching channels in between commercial breaks just so I can watch all together. And most of the time in the morning, I’ll either watch random channels or just go online. That’s why I don’t go online that often at night. Hehe…

I might sound like a TV freak or a TV desperado but, let me tell you this. I will not die without TV. I survived a long time without it when I was in college.

But, this addiction of mine will start whenever I’m free and have a TV around. For now, I want to watch as much as I can because I don’t think I will have the time and TV when I start studying again. That’s going to be for a long time. =(

Alright! I think I better get back to the treadmill while watching TV. =)

Donations, please!

This is so embarrassing!

I know a lot of you have already noticed me wearing the same tee over and over again. =(

Karaoke in Nov.

The green tee that I had been wearing to watch tennis, sing karaoke and even to Singapore trip!

Singapore trip in Dec.

It’s not like I only have one tee to wear but, I’m lacked of nice tees! No money to get nice ones.

ATP Malaysian Open in beginning Nov.

Donations, please? =(

Just kidding larr… I just like to wear it because it’s comfortable for me to wear to various events and places. It’s all about comfort right? But, a wider range of nice tees will do better for me. So, time to save $$$!! Lol.

I Can Smell It

It’s going to be a long holiday. I can smell it. I love the smell of the long, free holidays. <3

I’m digesting the holidays slowly. Don’t care whether it’s doing any harm to my system but, I just want to relax and spend some quality time with family and friends.

Plus, I got a list of things to do. Well, more like a list of things to buy. Haha…

But, I think I need to set some priorities. I had been planning to set up my own domain. Not sure when will I get it done since I have not decide on anything yet. I need to find a proper name for my domain coz’ I don’t feel like using my name. I need suggestions, people!

And also I need people to set up the domain for me. Since Dr. Wong is always busy, I will have to wait for the right time when she’s around. And also the time when she’s not sleepy and tired.

Oh ya! Not forgetting, I need someone to design my domain. Maybe not that soon. Not really the whole website. The header itself will do, just like mine here. It was designed by my ex-classmate. But, problem is, I don’t know what kind of theme I want. I guess I don’t want pink anymore. Hmph!

I hope I can get it done well. Hopefully it’ll be done by 29 January 2010. Why? Please don’t misunderstand the reason why just coz’ it’s LMC’s birthday but, it’s not! Haha… It’s because it’ll be my blog’s 5th anniversary! I’m a little blur about the date though but, I’ll just take the date of very first post.

So, please pray for me about this! And anyone who has ideas or can help, please let me know alright? Thank you!

Why So Slow?

Can anyone explain to me why are all my downloads are getting slower and slower everyday?

It usually takes me about 45mins up to 1 hour to download an album of songs. But, now, it takes me 8 hours!

Weird. Any ideas why?

My New Job

I think I just got myself a new job.

Joaquina Lim Siew Siew’s PA. Personal Assistant. She calls me her secretary but I prefer the title “PA”.

What do I do as her PA?

1. Follow her around the town.

2. Manage her phone contacts (By saving her contacts into her new phone, Nokia N86 – Lovely phone!).

3. Help to buy phone reloads for her.

4. Hold the umbrella up for her where ever she goes in the rain.

5. Park her car when she on her phone (Only once and it was in a very short distance only!).

6. Keep her car keys.

7. Take photos of her events.

8. Prepare sanitizer and tissues (Dry & wet tissues) for her.

9. Breaking crabs’ shells for her when she makan crabs.

10. Guiding her a little bit on how to use her new phone.

Funny right? Haha…

But, despite all these things, I enjoy hanging out with my bestie very much (Chelle too!).

And I don’t even think it’s a burden coz’ it’s not at all! That’s what besties are for right? And I guess if I can drive, she’ll definitely be my PA too! One day larr…

Gleek!

My current favourite show – GLEE.

Thanks to my college juniors and friends, I’m officially a Gleek. But, I think it’s a good show for me coz’ I get to know more English songs since I don’t really like listening to them nowadays.

Well, the characters don’t really set good examples but, what I’m looking forward to every episodes are the songs and their performances. That’s what I like about Glee.  

Here’s my random favourite character:

Although he’s gay in Glee (I think in real life too(?) according to Wikipedia), I like his singing especially Defying Gravity!   

Little Superhero Girl

I just got to know this really nice song ‘Little Superhero Girl’ by Corrine May. I first heard it at ACTS Church’s Unplugged and the song was sang by Ellie who has a fantastic voice.

This post is really random. I’m way behind my schedule. I’m trying to ‘swallow’ the Bio chapters as much and as fast as possible but, I really find it difficult. I hope time can just slow down a little bit for this moment. I still got other subjects to cover as well! =(

Study like crazy!

I’m very, very sleepy now. I don’t usually feel sleepy around this time but, maybe it’s because I haven’t been taking afternoon naps for the past few days. I actually feel good about it coz’ I really sleep a lot and to actually not sleep in the afternoon is a big challenge to me. Lol~

Btw, I had Secret Recipe for both my lunch and dinner today. It was really an impulsive decision to go there to eat. Luckily, I had Sarah to ‘teman’ me. I had Cordon Bleu and Greek Salad for lunch and ‘tapao-ed’ Sherperd’s pie for dinner. Ok, not just that! I also bought a slice of Oreo Cheese which tasted good. I’m not really a cake person btw.

And I’m really missing home… I really want to go home. Most of my college mates are back home for this weekend and I’m here all alone. =( I miss family, dogs, friends and everything back in Miri! Btw, I had a long phone talk with Michelle 2 nights ago. I miss her so much! I was quite troubled that night but, she called me to comfort me and we ended up talking about a lot of things. Really miss those old times when we always call each other and talk. Nostalgia!

And last part of this post, I have a friend who’s turning 19 on this coming Thursday! Although she’ll be having her exams on her birthday, I hope she’ll be thankful to God no matter what. She doesn’t hope for anything big or special even though she has been acting very weird towards her housemates. Naughty girl! Lol~ Btw, I hope she’ll have a good time and really appreciate the things in her life. An early Happy 19th Birthday to her ! 

Justice for Gary

I first read about this news from here. I didn’t understand at first because I was lazy to read about it. But, somehow, I felt the urge to read this seriously. So, I clicked on this.

This news really gave me a big shock. This young, talented man died in one of the most shocking way. Right after completing the 22km Adidas King of the Road marathon, he collapsed and was carried away in a stretcher without basic medical checks. And the next thing that happened, he was found dead at the end of a construction waste tunnel in the stadium. Why in such a mysterious way?

I really felt sad and sympathetic to the family and friends of this young man. At the same time, I feel terrible at the management of the organisers. And after reading the timeline, I strongly feel that they should be responsible over this tragic death.

I don’t think I can do much to help but to just blog about it to make a difference. Just like what it is mentioned on the website, this is to enable the public to be more aware of the story perhaps his death was not in vain.

May justice prevail for Gary Leon Robert.

Wooohhooo!!!

There’s so many things to blog about but, I really need to find the time to do so coz’ exams are coming again!

Btw, just to update you all about some things that had happened last week during my MIA mode.

1. I met up with family last weekend! Yay.. Miss them sooooo much! I went to KLIA to meet them to go to MV to stay for the weekends. My family came for my Da Jie’s graduation btw. So, we spent 2 whole days of shopping and spent so much of $$$. But, it’s worth it coz’ we wouldn’t be able to do this together so often. I have pictures to post but, will have to delay it coz’ I don’t have the pictures! So, please wait…
2. After 2 great days with family, I had to come back college. And this time, it was different because it was the day of the release of my AS results. I didn’t really feel so nervous but, I just don’t know what to feel. I just know that God is in control. And yes, praise the Lord! I got 4 straight As. I’m so relieved and glad but, I didn’t go out to celebrate. I was too sleepy that I slept after my housemates went out to celebrate. But, it was a really good nap. Lol~
3. And now, IELTS exam is coming! I still have the numb feeling but, sooner or later, I will definitely panic. Please pray for me.
4. A2 trials is around the corner! I’m wrestling to finish my syllabus. I’m still half way in Chemistry and have yet to start Biology and Physics. Please, please remember me in your prayers.

After this, you will notice less and less blog posts from me as I will be having my A2 in about a month time. But, I will try to post up something. And I can assure you all a massive update after my exams! Hehe… So, stay tune!

Good, Better, Best?

I’ve just thought of posting pictures of me since young till now and let you all decide when is the time I looked the best. I don’t think I’ve changed much though but, I still like the way I am!

1. A picture of me when I was super young! Forgot how old was I but, I don’t think I’ve changed much. Hehe…

2. Jumping from a super young of me to a 15-year-old of me! I love the chubby, pimple-less face of mine!

CNY 2005

End of Form 3

3. Then, here’s me when I was sweet 16! I kind of like my short hair here… Hehe!

Drama competition in March/April

KK Leo Forum in June

Japan in December

4. When I was 17, I looked kind of kiddy. And not to forget, I gained loads of weight that time. =( Maybe it was because of the stressful SPM…

Prefect Camp in April

   LYZ’s concert during my birthday

School’s Prize Giving Ceremony in Oct/Nov

5. After high school, life started to change! I think I started to look less kiddy or maybe not…

CNY 2008

Orientation Week KTT in July (Ok.. This pic is really funny! Bad hairstyle and too ‘sepet’ eyes!)

CF Christmas Celebration in December

6. And here’s how I look like now in 2009. Although with different hairstyles, I still look the same. Please do let me know whether I should keep a fringe or bangs? I like fringe better but my housemate said I look more attractive(?) with bangs. Hmm…

Ponggal Night in February

  Back to St.Co in June 

Malacca trip in July (This is me with fringe and more layered hair which I love now!)

So, which do you all think is my best looking time? I think I like how I look when I was 16. Hehe… But, no matter what, we are all beautiful in God’s eyes. So, I’m thankful of how I’m made! =)

There’ll be more coming up! Still have to compare how I look like next time when I’m in India studying… Lol!

Sick & Annoyed

I’m not feeling well at the moment. Hope I’ll recover real soon. It’s quite annoying to be sick at this time. Haiks…

Btw, I’m not in a really good mood. It really annoys me when people are not doing the responsibility that they should do. It should not be my business but, I really can’t help it. I really pity the girl who always have to be the ‘evil’ person to ask the people. When they did not do things they are responsible of, the girl always ended up doing their parts. And worst thing is, they rarely notice the girl’s actions. Haiks.. Pity that little girl. I can’t even help her.

Today’s going to be quite a busy day. Please remember me in your prayers. =)

Testing 1,2,3 again…

I have to test the Windows Live Writer again. Previously, I tried uploading pictures but, there always seems to be an error that prevented me from doing so.

So, I’m here again to try! God, please let this be OK…

 

Update: It works! A BIG THANK YOU to James!!! May God bless you =)

Testing 1, 2, 3…

Hey hey! I just downloaded Windows Live Writer, recommended by Oanna, my roommate. So, I’m just trying this out. This is really interesting and I can’t wait to explore more!

Btw, this is just a short post coz’ I’m still having exams! Please remember me in your prayers. =)

Dr. DaJie

I'm really happy and proud of my sister, DaJie. Btw, DaJie is not her name la.. Haha! She has just officially become a doctor! Knowing that she has graduated really makes me proud of her. Time flies so fast!

The thought of me graduating has yet to surface to my mind. I still have so many years to go! And just like what ErJie had mentioned in her latest blog post, I will be facing the same situation. By the time I start my first year, my friend, Ellis, will be doing his 3rd year. And by the time I start my 3rd year, most of my friends would be graduating and starting to work.

But, honestly, I don't really mind about that. Different people study different things which require different lengths of time. But, what I'm really curious about now is how I will become in the next few years. Hmm...
