Mundane-ness

So, I was just randomly clicking on my previous blog posts to see what I was writing about, or even to look at my own writing style. 
I was laughing out loud, or as loud as one can be during office hours, and being in the office. 
I am also utterly speechless. 

I am such a dramatic. Or, I am so dramatic. Or, I am such a dramatic person. 
I like the first statement more, even though it is not even grammatically correct.
I like the way it sounds. 
That is the conclusion that I came to, about myself, of me that was 2 to 3 years ago. 
When I was young and carefree. 

Now, however, I am so much more mellower. Like seriously. 
Hey, I love my mundane life. 
And some, especially my brother and sister, will tell you that I don't even have a life. 
My mundane life consists of home, work, youth and the still-here-to-stay drama addiction. 
I am pretty nonchalant about a lot of things. 
As long as I am earning money, legally, and saving money to get the increasing-day-by-day on the stuffs-that-I-need-and-want list.  

Home, is where I sleep, eat and hang around on the weekends. 
Work, is where I earn my money, and where I spend the bulk of my weekdays. 
Youth, is where I spend my Fridays, and on the occasional long weekends, go on trips with kiddies, and cook for them. 
Drama addiction, still on-going and has no plans to stop any time soon, yet. 

These are part and parcel of my mundane life, and at the moment, looks like it is here to stay, for at least another year. 
Change will happen, definitely, but, dependent on variables that are sure to happen in the near future. 

Gosh. This is like the longest that I have written in a long time, that has no relation at all to my job. 
Such joy. 

Wee ~

Just downloaded the Blogger app onto the phone...
Gonna have some fun blogging through this and I'll probably spam my own blog...
Ya, I know I'm unstable right at this moment. It's the side effect of having Ee Syinn back home, singing and playing the piano at random times...

WAHAHAHA!!!!!!

It has been like ages ages and ages since I blogged... last post published on the 24th of October 2010. 
Huh~ definitely a long time ago.


And so, photo time!!!! 
Very briefly on my life the past few months... the long and cold winter, the very windy month and various times...

Day-trip to York

Day-trip to Nottingham, finally had cendol and nasi lemak after many months

Well~ that is all for now... 
Maybe I should do this every few months... Ahahahah... see lah... when got time then continue blogging again... 

HOME SWEET HOME!!!

OH~

I am loving being at home. 

Loving loving loving it!!!

I am now on a MISSION to lose weight. Yup~ To LOSE WEIGHT!! Lots of it. At least 7 to 8 kg.

I am working hard on it.

Gym early in the morning on weekdays, and less food, especially carbohydrates. 

*laughs*

I so definitely have to lose weight.

But then, I want to eat my mommy's cooking!!!

*sighs*

Ok. 

That's all. Will update soon.

This is just me crapping away.
I will update soon on the food trip that me, Shuk Yee, Serena and Jia Hui took when Jia Hui was here in KK. 

So.

Soon.

OLALALA~

AH~

I should update more often. But, as usual, I am so so so lazy.

Anyways, continuing my previous post, my life the past week in brief. 

The four of us, Serena, Shuk Yee, Jia Hui and I went to Genting on Wednesday. We took the bus from 1 Utama and then arrived at the Skyway cable cars place after 1 hour. 
Then we checked in. 
We had to wait almost an hour and a half. There were like so many people checking in at the same time. Our number was 261, and at the time, the number was 161. We had to wait for like 100 groups of people to check in. 
So freaking long man~
Oh~ There is a story behind the checking in, but I am way too lazy to type it out. 
长话短说 - long story shortened - We got so pissed off at the girl who checked us in, she told us the wrong information and yet did not feel apologetic at all. She did not even say sorry, and kept insisting that she was right and that it was the travel agent's fault.
Anyways, all in all, we had a fun time. 
We went for the Theme Park and then had steamboat/grill thingy for dinner. BUFFET style.
Oh, so full.
But then, this time, the other 3 ate so much more than me. They had lots and lots of beef, while I was going for the mushrooms and a bit of veggie.  


Hmm~
Then we came down the next day, and then Jia Hui drove us back to Bahau, her hometown. 
Shuk Yee and I slept most of the way, while Serena talked to Jia Hui while she drove, to keep her from falling asleep. 
Jia Hui's parents brought us for dinner. 
It was superbly AWESOME. 
We had a cold dish, roasted piglet, huge prawns, CRAB, fried rice (which I did not take, because I was too full liao) and desserts.
The next day was Malacca. 
Jia Hui's boyfriend, Jack, drove us there.
We had the chicken rice balls, the famous dish in the famous restaurant. Then we had durian cendol.
*licking lips*
And then we walked around, to wait till evening, for Jonker Street to open, which we also walked through. Lots and lots of stuffs sold. We had the Asam Laksa for dinner, quite good actually, although not my usual choice. 
Then, got back by 10 plus and showered and sleep.
The next day, we went to Seremban, an hour away, to take the train back to KL.
Shuk Yee forgot to take here ticket back after through the machine and was then forced to pay RM30 surcharge. She was quite mad at herself.
*giggles*

Back in KL. 
I started packing a bit, stuffing my textbooks and statute books into boxes and all sorts of stuffs. 
Then Aunty Siow Ling brought me out for dinner with Dao Ming. 
Then on Sunday, FATHER'S DAY! 
Had lunch with Uncle Steven and his cousins, at One World.
Hehe~ BUFFET as well.
Ooo~ I love buffet, especially the DESSERTS!!!


Then yesterday, Monday, packed all my stuffs that I am going to ship back. And Kai Ping, Shuk Yee's year 1 friend, drove us and our boxes to the post office, although we can actually get there by foot, but looking at the size and the weight of our boxes, it will probably take us a few hours just to carry it over. 
Both of us have 3 boxes each. 
The total weight of mine was about 45 kg. And it cast me RM44.50, although it will take about a month to arrive back home. Shuk Yee's one weighed less than mine. 


Anyways, now, I only have a few stuffs left. 
Although I am a wee bit afraid that my baggage will be overweight, which I pray and hope not.


Ok~
That is all for now. 
And the next post will probably from the comfort of my own home. I CAN'T WAIT TO GET HOME!!!
So. Bai bai.

HOLIDAY STARTS NOW!!!

WOOHOO!!!

As you all know, I just finished my exams last Friday. 
And so, my holidays started on 11th June 2010 at 3.40pm.
And I have been enjoying every minute of it, although I am tired out. 

Summary of exam week:
1. On Sunday, studied from morning till like 2am to 3am then slept for 4 hours. 
2. Wake up and continue studying. 
3. At 11am, went to the exam hall.
4. 12.30pm reading time in exam hall. 
5. 12.40pm start writing non-stop until 3.40pm.
6. Leave exam hall, complaining about the paper and our tired out and aching arm.
7. Eat lunch/dinner, at KFC or McDonalds or cup noodle. 
8. On computer to stay in touch with the rest of the world.
9. Quick shower.
10. Back to the books, next subject on the list.
11. Repeat 1 to 10, except the days are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
12. On Friday, went back to room and took a deep breath and on the computer and showered and then went for cell. Oh~ I also watched the last half hour of South Africa and Mexico World Cup match. 


Huh~
So tired out.
Then on Saturday, Serena and I went to Daorae for dinner.
Deliciously good~
And when we were coming back, we saw lots of Koreans dominating the mamak shop downstairs of Doarae, waiting for the match between South Korea and Greece. Ya~ South Korea won 2 - 0.
The Koreans were all in red t-shirts and had those beaters thingy and what-nots to cheer for their team. So yay lah~

Then on Sunday, we started our shopping/food spree.
Without SIN JIA HUI. She went back to Bahau and will be back on Tuesday.
Sunday was 1 Utama, The Curve and Ikea.
Monday was Sunway Pyramid.

And I met up with Joey Ng after way too long. 
Then the 4 of us walked around getting various stuffs. Ok~ More like I did. 
*laughs crazily*
Ahh~ I AM CASHLESS ALREADY!!! 
And there is still Genting and Bahau and Malacca.

Anyways, tomorrow, on Tuesday, we will be going for Bak Kut Teh and then Bukit Bintang. 

Will continue tomorrow or the day after or the day after after or... well, you get the point.

Ok. Got to go. 
Watch my long overdue drama and to ask my mom for more cash.
*giggles*
Bai Bai.

Way way way OVERDUE...

Have been reminded and nagged for countless of times, and so, I have finally decided to UPDATE. 

And so continuing with our events update:
1. Last Tuesday, we went to Bukit Bintang, and remember my RM60 budget, well, I went over, like seriously OVER. 
*sighs* 
I came to the conclusion that I have no self-control. Which is bad, really BAD.

2. Last Thursday, a RARE treat, BAH KUT TEH in SS 2.  

3. Two days ago, on Monday, we finally went to watch When In Rome, in One Utama.
Awesomeness~
A really rare thing for me to say for a chick flick. But I guess because there were various factors relating to it.
And the factors are, the humour involved, the storyline was quite predictable but good nonetheless, and lastly, Josh Duhamel. 
*sqees and then laughs hysterically*
Anyways, before the movie, we had lunch + dinner = hightea.

We had Shabu Shabu and it was delicious. Although I can just hear Serena screaming ' MSG MSG MSG' in her head, or OUT LOUD. 

And lastly, although it is not really on our list of events, because this is seriously on the very, very, VERY rare occasion that I gave in to my roommate, aka SIN JIA HUI. And also because only Jia Hui and I went. Serena didn't want to, and Shuk Yee was in Penang visiting her friend.
We went to lunch in Chilis. I died from the large serving.

And this was mine.


And that concludes our events for the rest of the academic year. I THINK.
*smirks*
Which actually ends in less than 2 months. 
*bangs head on wall*
Which also means that EXAMS are really, really, REALLY CLOSE. 

And as can be seen from the above, we eat, EAT, all the time. 
So fattening.
Let's all chant 'MSG MSG MSG'.
*giggles*


Oh ya~ 
In the end, I only talked with Christine and Venetia and David for a while, like 10 minutes, in One Utama, after my movie. Because our time clashed. 


Ok~
Gotta ciao, need to complete my Tort notes. And tomorrow is Tort lecture. Torture. Seriously. 


And since I added something cute in my last post, I want to add another one. Because, now, I can see all the photos that I have posted due to the changes that blogspot did. 
And so, my super cute youngest sister. 

Hmm~ Although a bit blur, BUT, she is still cute.

*giggles*
But, alas, she is still growing. Anyways.
Ok. Bai bai. TORT here I come. *sighs*

First event...

... DONE.
Pasar malam was a success. I think.
Spend over our RM15 budget by 60 cents. I am quite proud of myself, for now.
There is still tomorrow.
*shrieks*


Tomorrow, we will be going after class around 12 like that. I can't wait for Korean food.
*sighs*
It has been too long. I have been craving for the Korean BEEF set since last week.

Anyways, in terms of budget.
*shrugs*
There will the occasional random spending of money. So, seriously have no idea how much money will be spent tomorrow.
Hmm~ Aiming for less than RM 60. Will tell if I will actually be successful.
*laughs*


Ah~
I had the most interesting 'conversation' on FACEBOOK just now. With Christine and a bit with Venetia.
Christine tagged me, Joey, Jia Jun, Amanda and David on Venetia's wall. Asking if we had time to meet up next Monday or Tuesday.
And, OBVIOUSLY, WITH NOTHING ELSE BETTER TO DO, yours truly is like 12 hours a day on Facebook, and so replied the thread really early.
So, I was free on Monday after 12pm and on Tuesday after 1pm. And we decided to meet on Monday in 1 Utama.
Then I told Christine to make sure to tell the others, because they may not check their Facebook as often. And she said, they should lah, one week leh. I went, VERY DOUBTFUL.
*laughs hysterically*
It is TRUE, they are so not like me. I am seriously like 12 hours a day on Facebook, playing their games. Because, I have nothing better else to do.
No, WAIT. Actually I do, that is STUDYING.
*sighs*
And so, will wait for further 'instructions' or whatever.


Anyways, I saw this and...

SO CUTE OH~
*laughs*
Choi Si Won and his on-screen daughter in Oh My Lady.

The past week...

... in photos and a bit of description. I am a wee bit lazy.

The week Shuk Yee was back in KK, the 3 of us had quite a bit of FUN!!
I think on Tuesday, went to Bukit Bintang for shopping, and then Snow Flake in Pavillion for dinner/desserts. 

And I also got a few earrings again. I am seriously obsessed with earrings.
*drowning in earrings*

Then when Jia Hui and Serena went for Korean class on Wednesday, which happened to be on the 31st, we had Baskin Robbins.  IN MY ROOM.

Jamaica Almonds and Cookies & Cream. 

Awesome-ness! 
*licks lips*

Then Shuk Yee came back.
And so, yesterday, we went for Clash of the Titans. 
I so do not get the title, nothing to do with Zeus, Poseidon and Hades' father at all.  The name 'Titans' was for the gods before Zeus and all. And so, it was all about Zeus' son, Perseus. 
After the movie, we were like 'WHAT!?! The title don't even match.'
Anyways, it was still quite good. I quite like it actually. Although it reminded me of Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief quite a bit, neh~ A LOT.
And the one lesson I learned was that I shall NEVER drink anything during a movie again. It was total crap-ness. 
*laughs*
Must remind self always.


And, the rest of the days/time, CLASSES!!
*laughs*


Oh~ 
I am moving tomorrow, to 19 07, should be. Unless management dilly-dally AGAIN.
The room is SO FAR AWAY from the wireless modem thingy. I hope I will still have internet though, good connection. 
If not I will blame SIN JIA HUI for the rest of my life.
*laughs evilly*


And so, the life of SHEN WONG EE SWONE. 
Quite lifeless, don't you think?

I know liao...

... why you, SERENA, like Oh! instead of the other one...

As in between Girls Generation's Run Devil Run and their Oh!
I only like Run Devil Run for the beat, but, YUP, I have decided that I like Oh! more. 
RDR gives off a kinda weird vibe and Oh! is fun and nice. 
*laughs*
Why in the world am I discussing my music taste here anyways??

Oh well, Oh!



And, TODAY, the four of us had lunch together, quite a feat actually. We don't usually do lunches together, mostly dinners.
And you guessed it, we talked for hours, I think 2 to 2 1/2 hours. 
We also had cake at Secret Recipe, because I was craving for some. Only Jia Hui didn't eat. 
*giggles*
It was good, we had New York Cheese and Chocolate Fudge, shared between the 3 of us.   

Anyways, just a short update, and now, I am going to call my daddy to BEG, to allow me to go back to KK on Saturday. 
And I am going to meet Chrystalle, aka Yuan Yuan, tomorrow. She is a childhood friend and I have not seen her for ages, and she is stopping over in KL before going to Bangkok for a holiday with her friend.
*green with envy*


ps> I should charge a fee for those who keeps coming to me for advice lah... YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
and I have been mentioning SERENA a lot of times =  I AM WEIRD
*laughs hysterically*

TALKING...

can go on forever...

Imagine talking face to face for a few hours, then later when back in respective rooms, chat on msn for another few hours. 


Jia Hui, Serena, Shuk Yee and I do that like all the time.
*laughs* 

The three of us in one window, then when someone gets disconnected, we all ask 'what happened to her? why leave the conversation?'
Like there could be so many reasons to leave a conversation.
Oh~ also when, SERENA LEE decides not to participate actively, i asked 'did she go bath?', she would suddenly appear to answer whatever question that was asked, and I went 'lol, you appeared'. 
This happened just now.
We could also talk about so many things at a time, and then SERENA will have no idea what is going on.
*snickers*
Our conversation today range from universities in UK, to pasar malam, to SERENA'S SUPER JUNIOR concert, to assignments, to why did - insert name - leave the conversation, to Serena and I wanting to go Korea, and who knows what else. 
And a whole lot of other things.

I just want to say this anyways, I LOVE MY FRIENDS!!!
*giggles*

Now, Serena, Shuk Yee and I are going to start saving for Korea. Jia Hui doesn't want, she wants to go to Taiwan. 
Then we decided on EUROPE first.
*laughs really ecstatically*
Oh~ and UK itself. For HOLIDAY!!


BUT, I also realised that whenever I ask a question, 2 out of the other 3 gets disconnected, like twice liao. 
*sigh*
I guess even if I love them, it doesn't mean that they love me.
I am near hysterics or ecstatic?
Then when they all added me back to the conversation, I BECAME LOST. But, I recovered really quickly. 
*laughs really hysterically*

Anyways, I will stop here, if not I would blog about our whole conversation here, and it wouldn't be good, would it?  


*sigh*
It happened again, now, I am the only one online, at 11.08pm Sunday night on 21 March 2010. 

And while waiting,

Seriously...

...life is a drama...
NO KIDDING.

And me, now, I am only an observer.
If I were to compare with the drama Gossip Girl, I would only be a student among the whole student body, a non-eye-catching person.
I never realised that one day I will be comparing my life to a drama. *laugh*
Luckily, I am not the star for this particular drama at this point in life.

But, hey, no matter what, I still LOVE my life to bits.
I don't have to go out and earn a living, for now, all I have to do is STUDY HARD and GRADUATE from university.
And now, I have to choose my firm and insurance choice of universities.
I should/will be putting Leeds then Liverpool. *sigh*
My mom says that the choice is up to me, but...

Anyways, I want to go back to KK next week,
BUT, my mom said NO because I have classes during that week.
We actually had a break, but the department canceled it so that we had a week of holidays for Chinese New Year.
My airplane ticket is paid for already ah~
*sigh*

I am like causing myself to be depressed.
I should stop.
Ok! The next post will come up in a few minutes/hours, after I rearrange my layout and what-nots first.

Life...

... is really very short... and also precious...
it can end at any time and at anywhere...

well...
my favourite year 2 lecturer just passed away yesterday at 7 pm...
Mr Anantharajah... he taught land law and the law of tort...
he was and is the best lecturer...
the last words that he said to me was 'birds of the same feathers flock together'... together with yee lyn and chung yuan... and we were laughing together about it...
and i'll always remember when he ends the class with 'and... hallelujah... see you tomorrow...'
i think all of us anticipates his 'hallelujahs' all the time... just to end class fast...
haiz... and his jokes and calling us with nick-names that he has given us...
he calls me 'miss swone'...

haiz... i am still in shock over his death...
and tomorrow is his funeral or maybe memorial service, not so sure...
but my friends and i will probably go...

definitely will miss him... but will also remember him... whisky and all...

ps> serena wrote a really nice dedication to Mr Anan... so... link...

Rain...

looking out my window...

after spending 2 nights and 2 1/2 days there...
siao man...
total kampung...
use rainwater to shower, brush teeth and wash face...
ugh... like dying... at least it was cooling...
the water and the weather...
i so did not drink water for the 3 days...

my dad and mom did drank the water there though...
anyways... on the second day we went trekking and picnic-ed by the river... nice...
BUT...
super a lot of sand flies... got bitten all over my hands and legs...
and now... itchy like mad and swollen up..
a wee bit disgusting... dont know how to go to class... definitely have to wear long pants for like who knows how many days...
argh...

oh ya... did i mention it takes like 7 hours to get there...
super super long...
first 3 hours is the normal sealed road...
then the next 4 hours is unsealed road... which is gravel road...
imagine sitting in the car for 4 hours straight...
total siao-ness...
going there was fine... except for a little butt soreness...
BUT on the way back...
CRAZY...
because it rained the night before... so the road was muddy and so the gravel road was really 'slickky' -haha- give me a better word...
anyways... real dangerous...
and once we nearly slide to the edge of the mountain/hill...
thank God that there was bushes like by the side... if not...
oh~ my dad said that that was the first time he heard my mom pray so hard in his life...
hahaha...
oh... we also nearly got lost... turning into the wrong junction...
but we soon got to a bridge we did not recognise and so we turned around...

and then after arrived safely...
to my home, my bed, my blanket, my pillow, my bathroon with clean running water and INTERNET ACCESS...

that is on the 1st of december...
jia hui, shuk yee, serena and hui xin appeared at my room door and sang me a birthday song...
with 4 different pieces of cakes and a gift...

the story is actually like this...
i went to bed at 11.30 while jia jia was still watching a drama...
then at midnight... someone knocked on the door... i wasn't in dreamland yet though...
jia jia opened the door and hui xin was standing there...
jia jia thought that she was at the wrong room when i looked up and saw her...
hui xin gestured to me to go to her, saying that she wanted to ask me something...
i was like... arrgh... so late liao...
then i had a totally bad feeling...
crap~ i already told them i didnt want to have a midnight 'celebration' thing... but it looks like they are not listening to me...
so i got up... i asked her can i not wear my glasses... and she was like nope... wear it...
ok...
then suddenly...
'happy birthday to you... blah blah blah... you know the rest...
hahaha...
then the 4 of them piled into the room and...
ya...
we ate cake at 12 midnight... before sleeping...
so damn fattening lah...
hahaha...

anyways...
i still enjoyed myself...

oh ya...
i also watched ninja assassin on monday...
and also new moon on tuesday...
hmm...
i actually enjoyed ninja assassin more than i did new moon...
i felt that new moon was a bit draggy and i only like the volturi part...
hahaha...
ninja assassin was actually quite sickening...
looking at blood blood blood and body parts getting chooped off...
well... at least most of the fighting parts occurred at night...
so not as bloody...
hahaha...
oh~ and rain looks so hot in the movie...
hahaha...
