Good byes are hard to say...

Good byes are hard to say...bad byes is just walking away without saying byes..those are easier to do...easier for the do-er but not the receiver. which would you prefer to have?
I think i would prefer to receive the good byes but i would rather give the bad byes..only cos its easier to do. but i also know that i can never leave in peace if i did give a bad bye.

anyways, if i can have it my way, i would rather not say good bye at all unless its death...the after effect won't be such a blow...perhaps...it would be a blow as well but at least you know there's nothing you can do about it and nothing you can do to bring that person back to life again.unless, you have the faith like the widow who can bring the dead back to life...


ps. Snow Patrol...i don't really listen to the lyrics but i enjoy the music..emo...

The ultimate benefit of being the only one...

Well, I think its the ultimate benefit...of being the only child in the family...it is...the excuse of being selfish..erm...more like not sharing my favourite food with other people and if i really really like that cookie...its mine!i will hide if from everyone's view and keep it to myself and run to my room, close the door and take my time to finish it up and then when its gone...i'll sneak out again and go for the cookie jar...

hmmm...that's wat i used to do as a kid..well...almost...not to the cookie but to food...hahahaha..
i have this thought...if you ever see us(the only kid in the family) suddenly behaving like this little girl or boy who refuses to share her food or toys with anyone, please understand that as the only child in the family, we do not share our stuff with anyone and our parents would gladly give us their share. So, don't expect us to share that piece of sinfully delicious chocolate coated brownie topped with vanilla ice cream with you..and you should understand that we are wat we are..and thus should not blame us for not knowing how to share because we do not share.
hahahhaha...something like that ler...just that if i don't share with you, i have an excuse by saying i'm the only child in the family and i do not share.

haha...now...to people who always ask this question:

How does it feel like to be the only child in the family?

Answer: Its awesome, super awesome =D

Moments that connect...

coming soon nath...been out whole day and by the time get back at night, so tired dy...and sometimes limited access to internet ler...

Last destination...
i'm now at my last stop before i return to Brissie...and this is another highlight of this trip...Adelaide.
The place i lived in for 2 years in my early 20s...and after 5 years i'm back for a visit..its still as quiet and things look a little bit older...and seems to have more ppl this time..perhaps its the 'graduation' season..friends and family come for the graduation of their loved ones.
Today i had a walk from my old house to the uni and i bumped into 2 people that i used to know and now no longer keep in touch. couldn't remember their names..only their faces and i knew i know them. Pang Sze and Lewis Liao...i am determined to remember their names.
Then i went to Paradise Community church for thei Christmas special events. They had Marina Prior to sing and my goodnes...her singing is very very good...and then we also sang some carols and the whole 'performance' made me miss my home church very much. i wish i could be home for Christmas.serious. i never tot i would miss Christmas in church but i do =(

Nomadic life
For 2 weeks i've been living out of a suitcase and taken many planes to different cities...at first it was enjoyable..but now i feel kinda sick of flying cos i get mild nausea..on my way to Adelaide, as the plane was approaching the landing strip, i saw wat looked like small hills with no trees and no lights and suddenly a big spread of streetlights and houselights...its like seeing day and nite, black and white..its an amazing view from up there and i realized that Adelaide is not as small as i tot it is...

Reflections...
You know how we sometimes just connect so well with someone we just met and we would start talking like old buddies and make jokes and 'kutuk' the fella mercilessly and then bestowed them with a nick name?..
well...today i bestowed 2 persons with that...one is Andrew's elder sister Ruey Shu and another is a friend Raymond. cos in Aussie, the culture there is like...they like to shortened ppl's name so Ruey(pronounced as Rae) is called Rae and Raymond is also Ray...so today after church service, i was like in a 'mabuk' state decided to call Rae as Do Re Mi and i told this to Jenn Yong(a guy) and he..dunno if he's the lame joker said we can call Raymond, Doraemon...
i was like YOU"RE RIGHT!!! lets call them doremi and doraemon so that we could differentiate them and being so excited, i told Rae and Ray the news and Rae tot i had a fever cos i was like so hyper and laughing and laughing and laughing...
which reminds me that its been a while since i have so much fun and being so lame..
DoReMi and DoRaeMon...gosh...@_@
and i guess moments like this...when u look at it from hindsight..will be something that will be remembered forever and when we have kids and when we meet up, we're gonna say lame things like this and our kids will prolly roll their eyes and say their parents are weird...hahaha...interesting isin't it..^_^
its a happy day..thank You Jesus...

Sun kissed...?no....

i was trying to upload my pics today but dunno why...tak jadi..gosh...am so tired now..supposed to be a holiday but i'm exhausted!
i went to Surfer's Paradise today...i got myself ready..putting on sun block on my hands and legs and headed to the beach...oh dear...it was cloudy as we were on our way there...and i was like noooooooooo...please...God...give us the sun...well...the sun still din't come out from behind the clouds..was there for only 1 hour and i complained that i couldn't get much tan out of it.-_-

Cos my friend's church service was in the afternoon...we quickly got ready after an hour drive from Surfer's Paradise..i was fine all the way till the evening..i started to feel itchy on my back...i realized...i was...burnt...
imagine if the sun was hot...i think..i would've died...thank God rite...really...hehehehehehhe

To compensate(just an excuse to indulge again..) i had green tea ice cream frappe and bubble tea...once again..if i look well endowed after Christmas...its...erm...good stuff...^_^

Can't believe I'm here...!

I left this same soil 5 years ago..hoping that one day i will return...either for a visit/holiday or for a new job...Today is the day...history is made...i'm back in Australia...not for a new job but for a visit/holiday...

The moment i stepped down from the plane, it looks the same..like i never left Malaysia but the people were different...there were ang mos directing the people to the terminal and lugging our bags from the plane...wow..the sky is still the same..but the people made the difference...i'm now a foreigner in this country..
There were a lot of people checking into the country but no one was rushing. And people were mainly polite. i forgot to check with my friend where i will be staying and the lady at the counter was not pleased.-_- niweis..forgot to tell u bout the journey...the flight attendants were obnoxious. As tho we paid them peanuts..hmm..maybe we paid the company peanuts but i dun think they r being paid peanuts.hahaha...the seats were just nice for me. Not enough to move much and 1 nose-high-up flight attendant din't pass me an immigration card...-_-do i look like an Australian to you??well...if u think so, i am flattered^_^

I waited for my friend to pick me up and finally she came with a white Nissan Tiida(?)^_^ yippee...my phone has international roaming so i was like calling ppl...hey!yo!i'm in australia yo!catch ya laters..=P
Me friend and i drove randomly to this shopping place in Harbour park where we had breakfast.the first place i went was the supermarket...i was like...in awe...cos there were lots and lots of food!!!!!hahahahha...i bought chips and juices and can you believe it???no 100plus drink and the weather was soooooooo hot...it wasn't humid but hot!thirsty all the time...i dunno why, when i ordered breakfast..the lady gave me 2 bacon and egg rolls-_- do i look like i can eat a lot???anyways...after that we went to the beach!but...i...din't swim cos ...wasn't planning too...niweis...
so DOUBLE ANOINTING rite...after beach we went to Harbourtown...oh myyyyyyy gooooooosssssshhhhhh!soooooooo cheeeeeeeaaaaaaaapppp...well in AUD lar...imagine getting a pair of jean for only 40bucks!!with a belt somemore!and i got a top for only 5 bucks!!!nice wan k...no play play..since it was such a hot day...i decided to indulge in another fruit smoothies...i ordered a regular Melon Madness...comes with watermelon and rockmelon n etc..the lady looking like she couldn't understand me..came back to me after 3 mins and said..'sorry(with the Australian accent)we don't have any rock melon...-_-right..so i..smiled and said its ok...then after 3 mins..she said 5.45 please...and then she gave me large fruit smoothies..oh...i tot i ordered a regular and paid for a regular and got a large!!wooohoooo...^_^ double anointing day..1st with the bacon roll and now smoothies...i think i'm gonna look real well fed when i go back malaysia...
hehehehehehe...

Its been a while...

wow...been a long while since my last entry..my aim was to write at least 1 post a week and look at me...only 1 post a month now...haha..yes..been in the new job for almost 3 months now...
it has been like a honeymoon for 2.5 months and just this week, i started getting some real work to do!!woohoo...i've been complaining for not having any work to do...well...that's cos i realized i din't know how to do self-learning...cos my company is so web-based that everything u need is online. So i came to my senses and tried to make myself read the guidelines online. i tell you..i feel so guilty for reading cos its like you're not working...so...like...gaji buta...
anyways...i just wanna share 2 events that happened recently and...rant about it..yeah...that's right..

AYA awards nite @KLPAC!

This time i was involved with the choir called the AYA choir led by Mia P. herself!woohoo...good learning experience...tiring as well cos commitment to go for practice every Wednesday nite...and considering i already have my hands full with church band...wasn't keen on joining for long term..oh well..i dunno what i will do. I just dun wanna do things halfway...and i guess the more i say that, the more i will do it...and i wanna make sure i have enough passion to last me thru the tough times...cos there are days when i really really wanted to ponteng practice but i din't...cos people like Kamini and Tessie really...made it enjoyable..and Pris and Jess and Mich and Carol...just about everyone that i know( i still dunno a lot of ppl there).
So we sounded really horrible until that day itself when we are to performed.wow...the acoustic in the room in KLPAC does make a difference cos we sounded so good when we practiced.

overall i think we did good...we still made a mistake at that particular part but they say no one will notice cos it will be their 1st time listening to it..haha..well..i do hope they din't hear the mistake!
pictures please...

oh..so lazy now...can i do it tmr?wanna sleep dy

next up:

Hon Mun's wedding...
well...this guy was my classmate in high school...in form 4 and 5.he looked real boyish and a bit nerdy and a bit too serious when it comes to studying...i find him a little weird...just being honest here...but wow...10 years later..now attending his wedding and he's married to a beautiful wife...i think she looks beautiful and he's been with her for 7 or 8 years b4 he proposed...not bad at all..that this guy can love someone for so long...and last till marriage.
besides that, i finally saw some of my schoolmates and classmates at the dinenr and its so nice to see them again..most have grown fatter and mature while 1 or 2 of them maintained. some have grown prettier..ahem..and more beautiful..ahem ahem...more handsome...or more pimples...ehhehe...and most are attached either married or with a gf/bf.gosh...i felt a bit..funny...haha..not pressured...just kinda wish i ahve a friend to talk to...and i guess i will only feel that when in a wedding with ppl i hardly talked to and just not like my good friends kinda thing...
like for my friends wedding in sept...i had such a great time even though no pratner to bring cos i have a good friend to talk to and share my tots with...soemone i haven't seen for so long..
