showers with loves I can't stop smiling

When the clock struck 12 this thought came in my mind: why are my friends so awesome? ❤
because I could see fb notifications of my name being tagged.

Woke up in the morning as usual and sat in the dining room with lecture notes in front of me I wanna finish the assignment before going out for dinner, this is what I told myself but you know me well I always fail to do whatever I planned. My family doesn't have this tradition to eat 'mee suah' on birthday but since 2008 I celebrated my birthday in this ang mohs land with friends I realised most of my friends have this tradition at home. Mee suah + hard boiled egg, I guess when you are not home you will be more keen to follow whatever the centuries-ago-traditions that you wouldn't even care if you're at home just to make yourself feels more like home.

OKAYYYY cut the not-so-exciting part. 

Oh wait did I say I had mee suah with a hard boiled egg for brunch else what's the point for blabbering a whole paragraph of that centuries ago thingy? Yea just because it is a tradition. :)

Okay, continue.

Mei Zhi told me she needs to go out at three to the post office and soon my Thai housemate came home with a parcel and a purple envelope and "Happy birthday!" I stoned, and "WOW", and like a rock I look at the parcel. Starting from that moment I can't stop smiling, or maybe I started smiling since the morning my fb flooded with wishes. Hehehehhe.

Yes I can recognise the handwriting on the envelopes. I definitely can.


I was puzzled. I don't know whether or not I should open the parcel and I texted my Bee and Cien, I was too excited guess I couldn't think straight that time. After around half an hour staring at it I finally decided to open it. O.o Awwwwwww ❤ I laughed like a crazy one in the living room.

MeiZhi came back.

And I screamed, I really screamed.

"PET!! HOW COME YOU ARE HERE?!?!"


❤ Thank you hua hua, thank you for the mini white choc mousse cake ❤

Pet, you really surprised me! I know my face looked funny the time when you entered O.o plus I screamed! Lol. There wasn't any hint that you're coming, very unexpected! Thank you Pet Pet, Thank you for coming all the way from Newy ❤


She has a name, given by my loved ones. Aries Joe :)


Jurlique by maomao, Aries Joe by my Bee, ciencien and huahua.


We had the dinner at Hurricane Grill and I guess one word sums it all - YUMMY!


I'm bad in words but all I can say is I feel I'm so blessed, I'm so blissful to have my close friends around me. I really appreciate everything you guys did for me although unlike the past years I have bunch of buddies around me, like the pasts this year would definitely be another memorable one. Thank you for the planning and the celebration, and the surprises, thank you xinyun petpet meizhi and maomao!



So lovely that I have my beloved ex-housemates to blog for my birthday although they are not by my side this year, and both of them said the same thing to me, "This is the first year since I knew you I couldn't celebrate your birthday with you." This sounds sad but this is how sweet we are. Yea same to them, I've actually thought of this too. :(

*arghhh i really dunno how to express myself already*

No matter just a simple wish or so I truly appreciate everything. I know I'm loved. :) Let me keep all in my mind I can't spill them out, I'm too happy and words just can't describe all.

❤ 22 ❤

It's good to wander in the city

because you never know when the city turns happening.

I guess the city hints when there are extra noises could be heard on 25th floor, very regular ambulance and police sirens and the bombarding musics playing in the city, and the strangest is when you step out from your apartment you see public buses stopping by the road right in front of you which you've never seen a bus passes by ever.

So here goes the St Patricks Day Celebration!

Spot the kids in the band, no.. spot their instruments, look closely.. do you see music scores? I found it kinda amazing actually. It did surprise me, a lot!



One thing to be mentioned. The crowd was so l.i.t.t.l.e as compared to the Mardi Gras's. This makes life easier. Teehee.


The kids were actually tired of waving their hands. Their faces were sooooooo sien. I wonder did they know why were they on the truck. Hmmm.






Till then. Xoxo. 22 is on the way. :)

Precious 5 Hours In Newy

*I'm not supposed to be here right now at this very moment* I should be doing my work, doing my work, and doing my worksssss.

"Tell me what's your plan, you're a guest!" 
This is really sad, since when I had become a guest in a place I stayed for the past two years. Never ever this come across my mind!

And so, I attended the house warming at my ex-neighbours' house :) Yea you got me right, this is my main purpose for going back to Newy. I'm really glad I made that trip back to the place, to the circle of friends I used to mix with, to the place that is surrounded by fun and laughter! 


Look at how cacat Huiru's face is! :) Seeeee.. I said, we really had lots of fun there


❤ The reunion of Dikir Barat 2009! ❤


Huiru and me :)


Me, Jas and Sheeling :)


Seriously, 5 hours of fun I had worths the 6 hours of traveling! I'm happy, I'm happy, I'm happy! :) Gosh I miss the people already! :))))))))

Life = Random

I think... one good thing being in the foreign land is we get to see weird things occasionally. :) On my way to Woolies to get a big tube of Vaseline the church opposite has this that is quite eye catching to the passers by, I'd say so. I'm not the only one that took pictures of this across the street, many stopped by to capture these 'warriors' too. XD



Everything happens for a reason - my Bee's favourite quote!

There's a reason why my mom bought me this case in GREEN. Teeheeee..


The people on my desktop don't kill me please. I treasure this a lot that's why you appear on my screen everyday when I log on to laptop ❤ Oh the main purpose is.. my mouse! It doesn't have magic on me anyway, but I'm still loving it!

Mardi Gras Parade 2010

It was the annual Mardi Gras Parade last Saturday! I actually heard this from the cab driver who drove me when I just touched down on Sydney. So yeah, here goes the Mardi Gras Parade of the year again!

The crowd was insane! Okay maybe it's normal. Along the Oxford St you couldn't get a glimpse of the parade, what you could see were people's back or their legs because most of them stood on chairs! So being a shorty Asian it was almost impossible for me to peek at the parade. What we could do was walking up and down the street, finding a tiny place that I could squeeze in. It was really really hard! Thanks to MZ she kept dragging me else I think I would have given up! And everybody was sweating and you could feel their sweat on you just by squeezing through the crowd. It was.. a little yucky actually. Hehehe.


It was really hard to squeeze into the crowd.


It was really not an easy task to take pictures of the parade with such a mad crowd.


I am glad I saw part of the parade because I missed it last year.


Last year same event same location same crowd, we gave up.


Well I am pretty sure this is the one and only year I get to see this parade.


Music, bands, dances, songs, spotlights, colours, shouts, uniforms, cheers!


From countries around the world, to the one nearest to us Thailand! Oh well no Malaysian representatives. Hehe.


It was definitely a hard task to take pictures as the shorty me was always blocked by balloons, flags, hands, heads and camerasssss!


So that's how Mardi Gras Parade in Sydney was!


It was very very tiring. The crowd kept pushing and squeezing, I couldn't even stand straight! Hand shoulder waist knee none of them were not in pain after that! Oh well thanks to my camera battery, it went flat and that actually 'motivated' me to leave the scene earlier! :)
