Woots Three days of utter bliss shared with the people I love.. Have a lovely weekend cos that’s exactly what I’m aiming for :) The Great Electric Fly Swatter Watching in awe as the fly went bzzt Wrapping up Right, finally found time to sort out the Melbourne photos + thoughts! Melbourne ‘08 was exactly how I envisioned it to be- not really a holi-holiday kind of trip but more of… getting used to living there. Before the trip, I was quite apprehensive about the whole migrating issue; and I wasn’t even sure if I wanted to shift over at all :/ But right now, after experiencing the Melbourne life (and winter BRR), I can safely say I’m 100% alright with The Big Move :) I can always decide what to do and where to go after the two years required to secure my PR anyway! Finally a decision! Took me long enough… Melbourne ‘08 Dominatrix wtf Been meaning to post up this photo I nicked off Eeflin’s FB… this is us while having dinner in Your Thai and no I dunno why was I wagging my finger at Tat. Check out Tat’s expression yo Can you tell who wears the pants here? :p Maid I realised that Max has too many cloth items- 2 play towels, 1 bath towel, 1 toy bunny and 2 toy bears… all which I have to handwash every two days. No wonder my fingers are peeling :( O hai! Is me, maidz jam. And since Suet, Barry and Aud got me re-addicted to Lolcats:- AWWW kitteh And also Fail Blog:- Baby (c)hanging HAHHAHA FAIL There’s another failed photo but it’s sorta NSFW so I’m putting it after the cut. I was drinking water at the time and had to focus hard on the top right of the screen to stop water from spurting out of my nose (more…) Home is where the heart is There have been house buyers tracking in and out of the house lately, and they all do it before 12pm- everyone knows I wake up only after noon. So I’ll have to drag my half asleep self out of the bed every time my dad taps on the door ugh. But to be fair the buyers were nice and considerate enough to just peek into the room and tell me to ‘go back to sleep, sorry for disturbing’. My dad had a talk with me and said that once a confirmed offer comes through, we’ll have to start scouting for a temp place to live in before The Big Move to Down Under. I guess Max will have to be an apartment dog for a bit… That being said I really can’t imagine another family in my beloved home, and another girl tapping away at her computer at this very angle in this very room :( :( Current Mood: emo Photo and a meme Met up with Aud and Su for lunch after a very long time And Su I think I remember which Blonde Redhead song you sent me (which made me feel like slitting my wrists wtf) was it Misery Is A Butterfly? The urr Random Stuff In Your Bag meme which Aud tagged me a thousand years ago:- Zoom in (more…) Na-na nanana Clarissa Explains It All- my favourite show as a kid!!! So nostalgic sigh Jaded Why can’t things be as simple as they seem? I can’t trust anymore… Friends don’t do that to friends. Gardens With Tze With pretty Tze Tze you have shaky hands! Monkey Jam HAHAHAHAA @ Sushi Zanmai WRONG way of holding the chopsticks The right way! Apparently the non-Chinese are better than Chinese in the art of handling chopsticks tsk Tze and her Unagi Don My Curry Katsu Adjourned to Starbucks Takao wtf Tze kisses :) :) Aud’s pose hee Suet’s pose which I messed up :( The pose that Tze made me show Nini just to crack her up hahaha I’m so good with children With Tat who tailed me to Cheras ’cause he was afraid I would get lost while on the way out Awww Tze and the love of her life Nini :) I’m known as Jie-Jie Jam to Nini ♥ She’s chewing on some Taiwanese sweet I bribed her with heh Piggyback! Ng Jean Nie / Nini :) Willingly being her entertainment Link to photos here. Max shows off Raok on From Alda’s:- Project RAOK (pronounced ROCK) R.A.O.K. or Random Act Of Kindness, is a project to encourage Malaysians to put a smile on other’s face by doing random acts of kindness. We live in a time when there is hardship for all Malaysians, so sometimes it wouldn’t hurt to do something out of the ordinary to put a smile on someone else’s face. You could have actually made a big impact. But there is a catch: These days, a lot of people do charity in the hopes of getting noticed or acknowledged, Project RAOK is to once again turn that around. To be part of this project, all you have to do is do something nice for a complete stranger, without being seen/heard or acknowledged. Example: Secretly pay for someone’s meal, pay the toll for the car behind you, randomly send flowers to places/people, randomly reloading phone credit to someone. Let your imagination run wild, and perhaps, you will be on the receiving end of such a deed. =) PS. copy and paste and spread the news! Check out Project RAOK’s Facebook group here! (Alda buy me icecweam.. that’ll be your good deed for today :D) Am creating a portfolio… … and here are some samples:- Taken by a point and shoot digital camera, edited to my concept of perfection by Adobe Photoshop 6.0 Combination of three different images (sources: 1,2,3) edited into a single message ! Click to view larger version I know they’re pretty mediocre work, but what I lack in skills I make up for in enthusiasm :) Baldy Thanks for leaving your email adds in the previous entry! Just sent the first mail, doubt I left anyone out :p   Someone’s looking all spiffy after his hair cut:- Max the kuchi rat HAHAAHAHAHA My boys Max’s new hobby, pebble chewing- we have to PRY them out of his mouth Mailing list There are some entries which I am not comfortable being posted out in the open, hence the locked posts! I do share occasionally, but I rather keep track of who’s reading. If you’re interested, please leave a comment here with your email address and I’ll add you to the mailing list :) P.s. I lost the old list so I’m making a new one :( You know what to do thank you! Protected: ALS This post is password protected.

Booooo Hello Tze It’s been awhile… but everything’s still the same The last time I laid eyes on Tze was last June- and it was through blurry vision ’cause of the tears… we were at the airport sending her off to UK for a solid one year. But she’s back now and that’s all that matters! ♥ And and on the way to lunch, the radio played Peaches and Herb! “Reunited and it feels so good…” It was like a sign from above Okay peekchas! From Tze’s Olympus! I loike the quality… Tat took this while Tze was outside having a uh… breather Me, Tze ♥ Tze, Tat My pretty friend Thanks to the constant assault of Melbourne wind on my bare epidermis, my face is now red, dry and blotchy :( Even Tze noticed and was concerned about the condition of my skin :( I felt so loved yet so… ugly wtf. See :( I’m seriously contemplating on isolating myself until it gets better Suet Tze Aud Current Mood: emo Max really needs a haircut Max’s grooming upkeep = rm70 per month Touchdown Okay the reason why I’ve been MIA for a bit is because… I was on the plane back to Malaysia. What started off as a ‘I miss home’ whinge on Sunday night became a full blown frantic search for the earliest flight back home. A visit to Malaysian Airlines at Exhibition Street was futile, so a call back home did the trick. All that was left to do was to change the reference numbers on our ticket, pack our bags, and head to the airport that very midnight. I’m home now -a whole nine days earlier than planned- and sweating my arse off :) Helloooo heat. I did leave Melbourne with a heavy heart though- saying g’bye to my mum nearly killed me :( The tears, the frantic cling-hugs, the ‘take care’s… Tat tried to make up for the emptiness by being extra attentive on the plane (randomly waking me up at intervals for nothing thanks a lot :p), but I still want my mommy boohoo.  That being said, I missed you Malaysia, stinky toilets and all! Ok time for Max-love round 121324. Hurray for sleeveless tops :D And yes that is Max T_T P.s. Sorry Melbourne sayangs for leaving so soon and not notifying you guys ’till now… will make it up to you guys the next time I’m there I promise! For my baby Schmackos Strapz with real chicken! The only contact I have with Max is through the phone… I’ll talk to Max and listen to his little breathing sounds through the speaker I miss Max :( 12 more days Current Mood: emo Yesterday in the city At the Melbourne Gaol! We were too late for the last tour so I foresee a proper visit next week whee Dinner with Jia Yi (?), Praevin, and Eeflin @ Your Thai Adjourned to Max Brenner for an impromptu chocolate refuel! Minus Tat HAHAHAHA no comment Eeflin and Tat Height difference :p Only way I’m bigger HAHAHA Being choked Eeflinnnn Link to more photos here. G’mornin HAHAHA I just discovered that whenever I touch sleeping Tat’s forehead/neck/ears/wherever with the cold tip of my fingers he’ll whimper and shake his head in his sleep HAHAHA! Like an auto-reaction! Fun fun fun. It’s only 9am and I don’t know why I’m up so early :( I’m usually up earliest by twelve arvo everyday… Ok since I have so much time I shall make an effort to look pretty! Hello make up goodbye fourteen year old girl! Mascara… and more mascara since fake lashes/eyeliner/eye shadow are a bit OTT for me, and I don’t have any at the mo anyway. Wait till I get back mmkay Suet you can doll me up then :D Ok byebye breakfast is calling… Woolworths’ ready made garlic bread is love during cold mornings yum. So the weather caught up with me… Beet red from a scalding hot shower Sigh. Random old photos Was decluttering the My Documents on Tat’s laptop when I stumbled upon a folder chocked full of old bluetoothed photos from Tat’s Sony Ericsson… All the photos are circa 2006! Wayyy before Tat and I even considered dating each other heheh. My favourite photo of Tat ‘06 ♥ Tze ‘06; always gorgeous Pretty Eeflin ‘06 Praevin ‘06 smoking in front of a ‘Thank You For Not Smoking’ sign Eugin ‘06 and Tat ‘06 with their favourite toy… Jm ‘06… I was so scrawny and awkward looking back then :/ Two whole years Just like that “Going once, going twice, SOLD to the little lady in black!” After the signing of contracts and the 10% down payment cheque, my parents are officially proud owners of a Glen Waverly home. Approx 729sqm, just right down the street to the school, train station and The Glen There’s so much planning going on now- cleaning, slight renovations, refurnishing, shipping of furniture… even I’m overwhelmed :/ Current Mood: what the?! Urk where’s my right hand I am once again, missing my other half. Tat’s currently traipsing all over Sydney and will only be back on Tuesday :( I do miss Tat terribly- but to be honest, his current Sydney trip is proving to be quite a convenient time out as we’ve been bickering a little too often since his arrival at Melbourne. Maybe me being Tat-free and him being Jam-free for a bit will not be such a bad thing after all :/ So after a long day of rumination, I realised that I’ve been taking Tat for granted. I do admit that I’ve only been focusing on the negatives, overlooking the positives… such as getting overtly upset whenever Tat yells at me, and ignoring the fact that he raised his voice at me only because I was stubborn and refused to wait for the green light (jaywalking is bad, I KNOW). I’ve been glossing over the little lovely things he constantly showers me with, i.e. letting me have my long showers even though he knows I’ll damn well run out the hot water; giving me his share of the comforter whenever I complain of cold feet; getting me the 10×2hrs Metcard ’cause he knows I’m far too stingy to get it… Sometimes it’s better to just focus on the positives and mildly thrash out the negatives before trashing it out :) Disclaimer: But DO bear in mind that it’s a completely different situation if the negative aspects are unforgivably out of line, such as if he’s cheating/beating/mistreating you… or if getting into your pants is all he’s after. That being said, it takes two to fight hmph. So Tuan Li Tat, I’m sorry that I’ve been really, reaaally pushing it, but a little (more) patience will be much appreciated, heheh. Oh well, here’s to another lonely night… Binge day; 26th June One word: BURPPPPPP. In the span of six hours, we had:- Steak burger, roasted duck and soy-sauce chicken at Pacific Cafe with Li Zie Ox-tongue rice/Gyu Tan Don at Melbourne Central with Ally Spanish doughnuts at San Churro Fettuccine carbonara courtesy of Chef Dennis Durian and lychee gelato at Freddo’s with the boys Again, please!!! Tuan siblings ♥ Mucking around in Safeway. I really liked the file ’cause it’s damn spacious and it’s only $1.69! Back home files like these are Rm7+ ok. I have an affinity with stationery can you tell Gyu Tan Don I swear this shit is damn addictive Spanish doughnuts at San Churro With Ally Kisses for Ally! HAHAHAHHA no comment Doing what girls do best with mirrors Best durian gelato EVERRR Allyallybobilly Greedy faces How could I not lick the cup? Link to photos here and here (Ally’s).
