I am waiting for the day,
You will sit with me and come my way.

Tidbit - Duit Dapur

Today I was shopping for some sundry stuff with my mum. I had just gotten paid for my workbook editing. I was looking around while my mum went to pay at the counter. And then,

"Hey, just now the money you took a?"

"Yeah, why?"

Mum stretches out her hand. I look in astonishment. I hand over the money. Though I don't quite get why I had to.

She resumes paying after I turn my back. And then,

"Now you have to bei ka yong (give duit dapur) edi..."

I'm in further astonishment....

Later, I told my bro via MSN:

我情愿

Today I heard this from a TV show I was watching. So romantic, and so perfectly said too.

"我情愿因为爱你而心碎，也不愿跟你檫肩而过"

The Yukon And Mutu

*DDDDDDRRrrrruummmmmRRRrrollllllll!!*

Haha... Was trying to create an effect of a drum roll - not sure if it worked. Anyway, the purpose of this post is to introduce another new blog - Yukon-Ho! which is by my brother. I have linked him at the side - you can see it as MyBroWhoLikesCallingHimselfMutu, which for obvious reasons you can see. Haha... I know this is a bit late... but Congratulations bro for finally having your blog! Finally, after being influenced by those crazy nutters around you who keep blogs... XD (I'm not included in this statement, mind you) .

So people... to know what's Yukon-Ho, do go over and have a loOk! And of course, welcome the new blogger...

Oh, and I'm gonna credit myself here too, because I gave him the birthday present that caused him to name his blog that name... Kakakaka...

Rice Packet Order Incident

Alas... due to the trend of children having to cram and stress for their BIG exams, the unfortunate UPSR, PMR and SPM students of my alma mater had to attend several days of extra classes, which effectively killed any joy they originally had from it being the school holidays.

During these days then... a series of unfortunate events happened, leading to the Rice Packet Order Incident. I will here describe them best as I can, from what I know from a reliable source.

On the 1st day of the unfortunate classes, these good students more or less showed up, bringing the attendance to approx. 200 pax. And then, as is our trend (among students anyways), this number dwindled miserably to a 2-digit figure the following day.

Anyway, these classes were scheduled to be from 8/9 am - 1/2 pm. Hence, there was a need for lunch, some thought. So, pihak A decided to order some food for these miserable children. Pihak A was responsible to find out how many of them wanted lunch, and accordingly got the figure for about 60+ students. And thus placed the order. However, some exceedingly kind people, I shall name them pihak ZR2, got the figure from the day before and thus proceeded to place an order for such an amount.

So, do you see where the incident happened? No? Well... as you can logically infer, there was an overwhelming abundance of food that day. To solve this, the food finally travelled some 45 minutes to a charity home, which perhaps received this unexpected offering with much gratefulness. So pihak ZR2 did get to express their generosity after all.

After the incident, there was of course the prerequisite post-mortem, as to why the systems of communication had failed them once again. And of course, the fingers started pointing in order to answer the question of who would PAY for such an error. Pihak Y offered to be the kambing korban, but was snuffed as not seeing the point of the question. But that's another story...

Oh, in case you were wondering... the government a.k.a. the school paid in the end. And I'm only taking on the role as reporter here since some other blogs might not be at liberty to discuss it. It is after all, only my alma mater....

2. A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and you just have to let go.

3. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you’ve ever had.

5. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

6. Don’t go for looks; they can deceive. Don’t go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

Today is my Mummy's birthday!!! Hahaha... HAPPY BIRTHDAY mummy! (not that she reads my blog, but anyway... it's the thought that counts, rite?)

Hmm... maybe we're getting ice-cream again tonight (we've been getting ice-cream for every member of the family recently). Or maybe we treat Mum to one of those Thai dinner she loves. Or an alternative - dim sum?? Hahaha... I'm gonna go extort my bro and dad for money *evil smirk*

*sigh*... how come everyone birthday is one month after the previous (sis in May, dad in June, bro in July, mum now in August) and mine so c-beh far away in December?

never mind, I'm the special one. Besides, I love my month. Haha XD

So horrible day.... My editing work was supposed to be due today, and I had only just begun.

And I started sneezing the moment I woke up. And continued all the way while I was working at my editing. Nose constantly itchy and having sensationnnn... ahhh---chooo! *oops! I just sneezed again. Oh.. as I was saying, sensation of wanting to sneeze.

Had to constantly blow my nose. Now all red liao. Tomorrow the skin sure gonna peel. Haii.... So painful some more. And eyes also cannot open...

Today was my "Most Tissue Wads" record day....

We have same names

Some time back, I got the idea of Googling my name for fun. Just to see what would come up. Something about me maybe? Or someone who had the same name with me? Which isn't all that common, mind you.

Well, I did find someone. A girl from Singapore, one year younger than me. Found her blog actually. Cos her name, which also happens to be my name, was in the blog address. Haha...

And then today, when I visited her blog, I found something else! She has a sister, and her sister's name is YUN YI. Which is MY sister's name!!

Goodness... Reeling from the shock and excitement. Now I wonder if she has a brother named Zhen Yu or not....

*I showed my brother, who of course started laughing. He was like, "You must have the same parents man..."

I have a happy stomach

I'm a happy girl... cos I have a happy stomach!

Haha... Mum made my favourite things!

The 2-hole fishcake! And meatballs! Hehe.... this was last nite.


And tonight! Wah... the exclusive chicken feet and mushroom! Those you only eat when you go back to your grandparents' house during reunion dinner wan... This chicken foot wanna give signal some more, so cool right?

Haha... Mum is fantastic cook!! *satisfied smile*

唉

快忘了，
快放了，
快惯了，


你出现了。


该怎么办呢？

This is...


my King of Fruits!

I've Been Tagged

Oh well... from my stalking of others' blog, you always have to do this if you've been selected, so here goes:

I got tagged by Jaeney

Here are the rules:
1. Each blogger must post these rules first.
2. Each blogger starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
3. Bloggers that are tagged need to write on their own blog about their eight things and post these rules. At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
4. Don't forget to leave them a comment telling them they've tagged, and to read your blog.

8 facts about me:

1.) I am deathly afraid of tablets. So don't ask me to take medicine when I'm sick. Unless you give me a doctor who prescribes syrup. Haha.
2.) I have a weakness for cute things. Cute designs, cute stuffed toys, cute kids, and of course, ahem... cute guys.
3.) I love chocolate and cheese.
4.) I am a nocturnal person, despite my efforts to be otherwise. I am most active around 2-4 am, and crawl into bed between 5.30-7 am.
5.) I have a hoarding habit - I keep empty boxes, finished toilet rolls, used wrapping paper, holey cloth separator, b'cos you can just never know when you need them for craft! and I also keep stuff sentimental to me - I found my Std 1 gymnastrada outfit recently, can't believe I was ever that small in size...
6.) I learnt reading Mandarin from watching tv dramas and singing along with song lyrics (which were in hanyupinyin at first). Now I can recognize characters but I cannot write. Type then can la.
7.) I am afraid of insects - yesterday a cockroach flew near me and I ran up the stairs while my sister whacked it with a newspaper.
8.) I love durians! Only the fruit, not the products. And yes, now is my happiest season =D

My 8 Lucky picks (haiya... almost all let Jaeney pick liao. can repeat or not?):

1.) May Potat （by special request some more...)
2.) ZPing
3.) Rebecca
4.) Celdrick
5.) Christine
6.) Amily
7.) President Simon
8.) Klang Hippo
