Back to the Cyber city

I know I have not been blogging that often but this is due to the bloggers' block that i am having. I just ran out of things to blog. 

 

A new semester has just begun and that means getting back my creative brain back to work. So that means, I am back to the cyber city and ironically, the internet here is getting slower and slower each day. Cyber city with slow internet connection. What a joke right? 

MALAYSIA BOLEH! 

Normally they say, new year comes with new resolution. But as for me, I did not make any new year resolution yet for this year but i guess now is the time.... maybe not new year resolution.. maybe it should be new resolution for a new semester. 

1. enjoy life to the maximum and treasure everyone around me
2. maintain my CGPA - work harder and smarter
3. stay healthy, drink more water and try to have well balance meals more frequently 
4. get my first ink (hopefully by mid year)
5. try not to be a procrastinator 

I guess that's my list of resolution at the mean time. As for now, it is time for me to go to bed, i need to stay healthy....remember?

Thaipusam 2009

First and foremost, Happy Thaipusam 2009. 

I went out for a photography session with Chia Hoey and Sean today. I woke up 6am in the morning just to make sure that I am able to beat the traffic jam and be at the venue early enough to snap some interesting, nice pictures. 

And here they are... the pictures

(there are more over at my flickr page, they might be quite disturbing to some and therefore I've decided not to publish it here. Please visit my flickr site if you wish to see them)

Why so serious?

One customer walk into the shop today and i serve him for like 10mins - and join in his jokes bout computer stuff. Just as he was about to leave, he ask me, "why do u look so happy?" 

I went speechless for a while... 

I have a lot of comments about how serious I look when i am doing something and I look "ganas" and strict so often when i am not smiling. But today, someone actually said to me that I look happy. ahahahha really? Maybe i am happy because i am looking forward to my one week break from work and stress and scolding and complaints and school before I leave Penang to go back to KL. or maybe because I let something go by me, and all the sadness and emptiness just went away - just like that. 

Last 2 months, i did a lot of thinking and has been wanting to do something. It is like wanting to purchase a pair of rollerblade that i know I've been eyeing on for quite a long time and do not know will i want to buy and own it. I might get myself hurt and injured, but at the same time i might bet an unforgettable thrilling experience and life changing route with it, but yet i was doubting it till i decide that I want to take the risk of losing something but might gain something in return. Just as i was about to make my "purchase", something happen. Someone walked pass me at the entrance of the mall, carrying the rollerblade box and i know, i am just too late again to purchase it. I know this would have happen, and that the pair of rollerblade would not belongs to me. Surprisingly, I did expect this to happen. Was seeing it coming ....

I was sad at first, but the bitterness went away just as fast as it came. Then i realize, it is more of a relief to me. I do not feel as heartbroken as i was last year when i found out about the same thing. My friend told me, you grew stronger, but maybe i did not. Maybe I woke up and realize it is just an infatuation after all. 

No worries people. I am fine now. Happier than ever and can't wait to start my new semester. Can't wait to meet up with my housemates and coursemates. Another 4 months of stress and brain-wrecking and brain-squeezing trip. But i know, i will enjoy the stressful 4 months before i am back in Penang again. :D

ps: buying rollerblade is not real. it is just a metaphor of something. :P

Chilling out with my girls

Eileen hung out with her girls last weekend at Leisure Cove. They talked and laughed the whole night and had a lot of fun time catching up with everything that they've missed out in each others' life.... 

the girls before going out

Eileen & Pleo

One good thing about working at the current place i am working at is i get to play with a lot of cool gadgets and learning a lot of tech stuff from colleagues as well as from interacting with customers. But lately, I am not so keen and motivated to continue to work due to many many reasons... then i met .....

Mr Pleo

That's our first picture together...

playing tug-of-war with Mr Pleo

me, trying to cuddle Mr Pleo 

and that's Mr Pleo, manja-ing with me

and that's me, wanting to just bite him ....

Anyone out there who is thinking of getting your love ones a pet this Valentine's Day, think no more. Pleo is the right one! No poop to clean up and no shower is needed. All you have to do is just touch him and cuddle him and he will respond to you by sticking his neck to your body. can say he's a little ham-sap (perverted). LOL. I am just joking. Afterall, Pleo is just a robot programmed in that way. 

But at the end of the day, a real warmth from someone you love cuddling you is still the best feeling in the world. 

Thinking of getting one? Let me know.....

The Starbucks Coffee Addiction

I can't drink too much of caffeine but I still consider myself a coffee lover. This holiday, I've been spending quite a few mornings over at Starbucks Coffee and at McD to enjoy free internet access and of cos the coffee before I go over to work which has been quite a habit to me now. It is just a little temptation that I am enjoying :D

So while I got myself more addicted to coffee, I too began to spend more on some miscellaneous, unnecessary stuff. So what did i get for myself ?

a StarbucksCoffee Leather Planner: i've always wanted a Moleskin (if you do not know what moleskin is, refer to the pic below)

 It is just something every artist/designer would want so they can do their sketches on it. The paper are of good quality standards (it claims that picasso, leonardo da vincci used them) and for that, it is very pricey. So, when I saw this planner on sale at Starbucks few weeks ago, I told myself that i could get that as a moleskin replacement. I can bind my own sketches and put them inside it. Sounds good right? BUT, unfortunately on that day, i was on financial constrain and I only bought it last Monday.  

So what's so special about this leather planner is that, it is a special edition for Starbucks Coffee's 10th Anniversary 

it has really nice illustrations as dividers ...

another cute illustrations...

and yes...that's the limited edition 10th anniversary tumbler which only cost me RM10!

 

I've just have so much things to blog about and yet so little time to do it. Since i am on MC today (yes i am sick, very sick but better than the day before) so i decided that it is time for me to post up the pictures that I've promised earlier (check my earlier post). 

That's for now. Anyone wanna go out for coffee? 

NUDGE ME! 

p/s: I prefer CoffeeBean, but Starbucks provide better internet access.
