i need to get back into the blogging groove.been very busy. you know how you blog tons for a certain period of time, then you stop blogging, and then you look back at your posts of your "blogging period" and think, *damn i should have blogged more about yadda yadda yadda*? yeah. im feelin it yo.
anyways. the emo bug is starting to wheedle (is that even a WORD?*haha Shaun check the scrabble dictionary*)its way into me. sniffles wiffles and all that sorta thing. It started with Ju's surprise farewell at Cava.
King and I
Ethan and I - I look weird here but he's so unbelievably adorable weii:)
It hit me that I was leaving too and...andd...andd....*bawls eyes out*Then on sunday it was the dinner hosted by my 2nd uncle to send me off. Everyone was giving me angpows:):)

The nice aunties and uncles who gave me angpow:)
...and I swear.THE FOOD. The cousins were all like "oh when you go UK you can't eat this and that.." and "oh dont worry we wont forget you..we'll make sure to CALL you everytime we're eating together and marvel at how delicious the shark's fin and suckling pig is.."(no offence so animal lovers-.-)grrr.siigh. Im going to miss the nasi lemak, the rendang, the pineapple tarts, the ayam goreng from nirwana, the lala from ming tien, the seafood, the shang har mein, the homemade soup..SNIFFFF.
The Cousins - Evil Incarnates
......NEVERMIND. i got my duck rice...*which cost ALOT but who cares la OKAY*-.-
then on monday i dragged poor keatboon all over town to complete my neverending shopping list.
Smile la geez.
started at central market for my cheong sam - got a very nice long black and gold one:D..then on to Low Yat where we spent ages buying an external hard disk for meself, a laptop(for his brother) and a laserjet printer all-in one(??) for me dad.oh and i bought earphones for my ipod too so now i can listen to it after like two months wei.THEN we went to KLCC to get my crumpler laptop bag and my gorgeous nike walking shoes:):) all using my HSBC Premier Credit Card. HAHAHA.been swiping like mad wei. very bad. now I know why they say Credit Cards are bad in econs class. you just spendddd and spennnd..geez.
at night it was dinner with the anna banana who just got back from her holiday in Europe*the stupid biatch*...and after that a yumcha with Aaron K (whom I SWEAR I will EMAIL) and Adrian M. Talked and talked and talked about tattoos and piercings and needles*ugh(Met AlexWung and his gang there too. Oh and DanielHo:)
Tues was to please my grandma..went to pay my respects to my granddad.Twas a pretty solemn thing actually, I still feel the tears welling up. I wish he could have sent me off..but oh wells. Im glad I fulfilled my promise to him of going to uni :)Then on to renewing my driver's license with Shaun(omg i swear the JPJ was sooo efficient that I got it done in about 15 mins..and Im not being sarcastic) and then ALexWung who came to send all of us to KL where we did our ISICs and Shaun attempted a collection of his visa which amounted to NOTHING. We got stuck in the famous KL jam and emoed to James Morrison - The Pieces Don't Fit Anymore. BOLLOCKS in the words of ShaunMak himself.
Had dinner again with La Familia - this time me hosting it *grumblegrumble* had crabs and all the seafood you can think of..Geez the bill was RM1000 over man...There goes the scholarship moneyyyyyy....*flies out the window*
Daddy was emoing just now.Haiyo. Eyes were red and all you know.migosh.not even monday yet and hes already like this..how la how.

You'll come down from the Lurch
with an unpleasant bump.
And the chances are, then,
that you'll be in a Slump.
And when you're in a Slump,
you're not in for much fun.
Un-slumping yourself
is not easily done.
You will come to a place where the streets are not marked.
Some windows are lighted. But mostly they're darked.
A place you could sprain both you elbow and chin!
Do you dare to stay out? Do you dare to go in?
How much can you lose? How much can you win?
And IF you go in, should you turn left or right...
or right-and-three-quarters? Or, maybe, not quite?
Or go around back and sneak in from behind?
Simple it's not, I'm afraid you will find,
for a mind-maker-upper to make up his mind.
You can get so confused
that you'll start in to race
down long wiggled roads at a break-necking pace
and grind on for miles across weirdish wild space,
headed, I fear, toward a most useless place.
The Waiting Place...
...for people just waiting.
Waiting for a train to go
or a bus to come, or a plane to go
or the mail to come, or the rain to go
or the phone to ring, or the snow to snow
or waiting around for a Yes or a No
or waiting for their hair to grow.
Everyone is just waiting.
Waiting for the fish to bite
or waiting for wind to fly a kite
or waiting around for Friday night
or waiting, perhaps, for their Uncle Jake
or a pot to boil, or a Better Break
or a sting of pearls, or a pair of pants
or a wig with curls, or Another Chance.

Interesting poem by Dr. Seuss no? Heard it in Fracture starring Ryan Gosling (from The Notebook *sniff*) and Sir Anthony Hopkins (from Hannibal and countless others). Good movie this. Very lawyer-fied. Double Jeopardy and all that sorta thing. The poem strikes a chord. Everyone is just waiting. For what? For the freaking bloody cows to come home la that's what.
hmph. In a pissy mood.
.......AAANyyywayy. Went to the pre-departure briefing for Warwick yesterday. Met some seniors..Rather interesting bunch...:) Looks like its going to be quite fun in Uni. I also got my accommodation done *strikes that off list* and I got Jack Martin yeay ensuite baybehh!!!
Been meeting up with my kawan kawan:)Started out with SongJun Edmund and Chew at Ming Tien yummy LaLa.:)
Then with KeatBoon my "hengdai" to eat breakfast..
Then with PeiJean to shop...
teehee I bought the dress:) Though I have no idea where Im going to be wearing it in England.haha.Freeze meself off I guess.
Then with Saran, Smellypoo and Sheekira and Tzin for lunch at Delicious and shopping after.
My lovely sayangs"patiently" waiting for me to buy my flats from Vincci. If you count Mel saying "AIya buy BOTH colours la since you're so rich from your scholarship.." as patient then yeah la. DAAAAMN patient.
Sheekira Sheekira and I with Saran's aviators from I-dunno-who.
Smelly Melly!!
:) Gonna miss the funny moments when I'm away. No matter. It'll be 9 weeks (ONLY) till I see everyone again.
Got my visa done super-smoothly. Apparently alot of applicants get rejected.O.o Thank God I'm not one of them.
Got my HSBC Premier (!!) credit card...=.= yeah the one with the 1000 ringgit limit. I hope daddy was joking.
Still so many things to do..and so little time. Im so busy I havent even had enough time to really really sit down and dwell on the fact that I'm leaving home for the longest time I have ever been. Sniff.
Injections tomorrow? Gonna put it off if possible heehee. Grr. I need to get my driving license done...Been putting that off since the day I got robbed. Which was.....a very long time ago.
Haisyo. Very Schleepy Me.
Goodnight.

had the dental check-up today...i hate dentists...but this one wasnt so bad...maybe because she was a lady. more gentle perhaps;)
sometimes shit things happen to you so that you will appreciate the little good things that come along once in a while.
at other times shit things happen because your face got problem...ahahhahahahaha.
okokok..sorry.feeling a little er....how do you put it...lame?something like that.
in any case.
I believe that things always happen for a reason. Why or how it happens is never in our hands. There is almost always a lesson learnt at the end of it all.
We've come a full circle haven't we?
You.
I'm so proud of you. Always knew you could do it. Never for once doubted your ability.Im just sorry I can't tell you straight out lol:p

two roads diverged. it's true that the paths couldn't be more different; but at least they're both moving ahead.
Oh and the princess has spoken;)

The last thing on my mind has been Him. Been so caught up that I don't have time to stop, and think, and listen. Drifted apart?
Maybe. But this HAS to be one of the worst times to be distant. It's so ironic that I don't give a second of thought to the one thing that will make or break me when I'm away.
It IS true what they say about the second generation Christians. Everything's taken for granted. I've always had the assurance, some people say it's brainwash; but I hardly think so.
The reality is there. I'm reminded of it whenever I look around at the little wonders that go unnoticed most of the time.
Doesn't it amaze you how the tree outside your house has so many leaves that look alike and feel the same, and yet, if you look closer, are different?
If I was God I would just mass produce the darn leaves because nobody appreciates them anyway. But I'm not. And He actually takes the trouble to make every leaf distinctive; even the leaf is given so much attention. Who does these things? And it's not only one tree you know, all the billions of trees have distinctive features. Where got people so free but Him la.....-.-
There are times when I think, well, it's just religion you know? I got so much to do so little time; I'll leave that to whenever I'm less busy...
There are times when I'd avoid the Christianity subject (like before I started this post) because...I don't know.
Then a voice goes in my head.. "Are you ashamed of your faith?"
No I'm not. It's just not what a typical 19 year old talks about right? But then again, Im not THAT typical I guess. Religion doesn't play a big part in most people's lives nowadays but thankfully, it does in mine.
It's very easy to forget and even easier to deny that you ever had anything to do with anything mildly religious.... And gee, I MIGHT just do that when I leave.
I don't want to of course, but I might.
I forget how blessed I am to be where I am now. I forget how He helped me through whenever I was afraid of the future. I forget how I put everything into His hands so that He would decide for me. I forget how much He loves me and died for me and how much I should love Him back.
Worse; I remember all those times I felt alone and that nothing mattered in this life. This one single thought is enough to justify me being distant. I say to myself "Well where was He when this-that-or-the-other happened.."
It's been hard on me these past few months. It still is. I still don't understand why certain things have happened. I guess I got too confident that I could do it without His help. I thought I didn't need to bother Him with trivial stuff. I thought " yeah I can do this ..."
yikes that's when everything goes wrong man. When you decide you can do it yourself. When you push Him away because everything gets too complicated when religion is involved.
I hope that I will be close to Him when I'm on my own in Warwick. It's easy to be part of the Christian family when you're in KL - you have Christian friends, your parents drag you out of bed at 9 on Sunday mornings to go to church, you go to YF....
But when you're in a new place.....all you have is yourself...and Him. That's a scary thought. I wonder if I can still be who I am now when nobody is there to watch my back and tell me "hey en, you're getting a bit outta hand here.."
*sigh* Im rambling. Boom. Was pottering around my room when this song came on my iTunes. and finally, after so long, I stopped, thought, and listened.
A thousand times I've failed
Still Your mercy remains
And should I stumble again
I'm caught in Your grace
Everlasting
Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending
Your glory goes beyond all fame
In my heart and my soul
Lord I give You control
Consume me from the inside out
Lord let justice and praise
Become my embrace
To love you from the inside out
*...I will be still, and know You are God.*

quote of the day "shitting is better than wanking...wah...when the shit comes out ah..the feeling ah..." - LoLo
omg.*cringe*
Labels: random
Righto.
i have so many things that I want to blog about but I do not have the time or the patience to properly arrange my thoughts.haha.
So i went to S**O today ( the reason for the asterisks will show itself soon). Upon entering the mother and I were lucky enough to get a parking slot almost immediately *yeay for us*
...omg.
the amount of semi-ninja people i saw there was enough to make me..well...suffocate.the building was literally filled to the brim with humans and their offspring - offspring that will NOT EVER shut the hell up and stay obediently by their parents' side.
i s.w.e.a.r.
all these kids running around playing "catching" in the area.....arrrghhhh. you dont get that in KLCC.NO YOU DONT. but in S**O i tell you.
dont know how to teach your kids then PLEASE leave them at home where they can shout and scream in peace(paradoxical much).
dont know how to control your kids then PLEASE don't give birth so much.
Gee, I dunno if it was just me or there were really damn alot of pregnant ladies in S**O.
I was looking around to see if there was a baby fair or summat. and these women are reaaaaaaally young too.*shakes head*
So anyway, there we were, mother and daughter caught in the midst of the frenzy (there was an 80%(!!) sale there on some valentino shirts (????!!)) and we were hoping to get a bag ASAP then dodge out of that place.
oh I forgot to mention the reason why we were at S**O in the first place. Mummy dearest who is very very super kiasu, heard that the Samsonite luggage bags were going really cheap there and decided to save some money. *grr* I would gladly have paid the difference.Pah.
......as I was saying...
After much deliberation and cajoling on the part of the salesman, we finally decided on our purchase... I wasn't annoyed...yet. I mean, the kids ( there were ALOT of them) were starting to get to me but I thought, well, I was a kid once too. And let them have their fun y'know?
GAH.
We were about to leave when the mother saw a couple of belts on sale.ehmahgawds. I just wanted to leave at that point cuz there was this kid..in FAKE crocs (the things are already so horrendous in the originals....and these were f.a.k.e. omg) screaming and shouting and running around.....aaaarghhh. just thinking about it makes my insides twist and turn.-.-
The sales person, a semi-ninja, was SO BLOODY INCOMPETENT I COULD JUST DIE. And I was just standing there dragging my stupid luggage bag keeping to my own thoughts mind you. Poor mother. I think she was about to hit the roof judging from the tone of her voice.
Mom: Cik, ini tali pinggang ada saiz untuk orang 32-33 punya waist ah?*say it in a cina cina accent*
Weird SN(semi ninja): *digs around the mess that was the sales counter* Ada 44...45...47...*throws boxes at mom*
*enli thinks, why cant she just give us the RIGHT size...*
Mom: Saiz mana saya boleh beli untuk waist 32-33??
Weird SN : ahhh..*picks smallest size from the stuff she threw out* ahhh...44 la boleh..saya tumbuk lubang nanti....
*enli thinks, size for belts means length rite. 44 inches...wouldnt it be abit too long for someone whos a 32 waistline?*
Mom: Ah.tumbuk lubang dulu la.
Weird SN: Bayar dulu baru tumbuk.*stoney face*
so the mom goes and pays for it and comes back to the counter for the tumbuk-ing of the lubang.
Weird SN #2: Saiz apa mahu?
Mom: untuk 33 punya waist line.
Weird SN #2: hah.saiz 33 mahu beli 44 buat apa?terlalu panjang la...
Mom: tak tahu, kawan cik yang bagi saya.
*weird SN conversation goes on with mom rolling her eyes*
...so in the end they found a size 42 (BIG DIFFERENCE) for my mom...and then comes the NEXT pissing off thing.
they couldnt find the damn measuring tape to measure the lubang.
OMG.
IT WAS RIGHT ON THE TABLE. like i pointed it out to them but by that time Weird SN had already run off with the belt and we had to wait for her to come back and finish her giggling before we could bloody leave the place.
OMGGGGGG.
i wonder how high the level of productivity is in that place.
.....
It's pretty hard not to feel like this although the country promotes er.intergration and all that sorta thing.
I do love my country....OK maybe i shouldnt generalise so much. Maybe I shouldve just taken that situation in isolation.
sigh.
Now Im at odds.
I feel bad fr generalising. but geee. customer service not known to you people ah?
gah whatever. Point is, Im not going back there again when Im sleepy and irritable. I might consider going there IF im in a super good mood where NOTHING can possibly piss me off though. AND omg. who goes to shop in a place that LOUDLY ADVERTISES that they sell rip offs? Emmer Zecna. Style. Suave. Sensuality.
HUH. at first I thought, typical la. bad spelling. BUT i passed the shop and it was of the same name. AIYOLA.give la some other name. I know you like Ermenegildo Zegna la. I also like. haiyo. but do we REALLY have to go to that extent?siiiighhh.would have taken pics but i didnt bring my cammie along.
on a lighter (and less evil) notee, I got my new camera..oh wait I already said that..haha proves how happpppyyy I am about it ey;)
the olympus FE 280
the side view...and YES i do not EVER give up an opportunity to camwhore:P
Regarding the title of my post....well.
haha.schoolgirl crush?
for me to know. and you to NEVER find out.teehee.
toodles!
