Its been a long time since i blogged n this blog is specially dedicated to 1 Iklhas, the naughtiest class in my school. I have been teaching for 7 months now and I am still unable to control this bunch of devils..Sigh.......

Everyday I go in, there will sure be something new for me.Today 4 boys had the nerve to pee in the classroom!! Imagine my fury when I saw the pee inside the water bottle!!!Well, I felt such a failure when I couldn't even manage to scare them or control them so I sent them to a male teacher.

The class really gives all the teachers headache especially the female teachers as they are not scared with us.They do whatever they want and they do not even flinch when we scold or punish them.I had tried cajoling,threatening to ignoring but to no avail!!

Last week,they took off their socks and smacked each other with the socks. Few weeks before, they ate the exam papre that I gave them back!!Well going into the class, sure increase my blood pressure.I think one day i may just faint in the class or have a heart attact due to their 'great thinking'.

Being a teacher is not as easy as everyone thinks.we have to face many types of students and characteristics that can make you go crazy. So, anyone has any suggestions and ideas for me to make them be better please tell me..

I just came back from KK with Mori and her family. I had enjoyed the 4 days 3 nights trip tremendously.I was able to go shopping at One Borneo, Centrepoint, Wisma Merdeka and even KK Plaza after 2 months of deprivation from shopping.Haha!!

Having fun at One Borneo :)

On the third day, we decided to go to a water fall at Inanam to bathe there.Mori's brother came with us for this trip and all of us were so entranced by the baeauty of the water fall.We waded into the water and had a great time playing there.The water was so cold and refreshing and I had never seen any water fall that is so beautiful and unpolluted.Well, this is called the wonders of nature. :)

The beautiful waterfall at Inanam.

Then,Mori's brother (Oning) climbed up towards the top of the water fall and pondering whether to jump inside the water or not. I told him that he might hit his head on a rock if the water was shallow.Then, Mori and George said it should be alright to jump.Suddenly, "PLOP!!" he was already inside the water.Then, he bobbed up from the water and seemed to be drowning.Mori called for me to go over to help him but she was telling me with a smile on her face.Hence, I was thinking that he was just fooling around.

However, without any second thought George rushed over to help him and from then on it was a struggle for both of them to come out from the water.When Mori saw that, she quickly gave her hand to Oning so that she could pull him over to safety.Unfortunately, Mori was pulled by him towards the currnt instead and she also started to drown.By then I realised that they were really in danger and quickly went to their side.

My head was all blank at that time and what I did was to quicky pulled Oning's hand so that he would be able to come to the side.Miraculously, Oning let me pulled him to safety and at the same time he also pulled Mori out from the water. George was able to fight the current and was able to swim towards the side of the waterfall. Everyone were so shocked over the incident and the three of them were thinking that they nearly drowned and shuddered over it.

The place where Mori, George and Oning neraly drwoned.

This trip might turn into tragedy if it was not for George's and Mori's quick action. I really salute them for their bravery and love for Oning as they didn't care for their safety and went to save Oning even though they do not know how to swim properly. It was also a miracle that I was able to pull Oning out of the water instead of being pulled by him towards the current. We believed that we were protected by angels :)

This trip was really memorable to all of us as it reminded us that lifes are really fragile so we have to appreciate all the people that are around us and love them with all our heart .

Today, I really felt very happy and satisfied with two of my students.They are Yassin and Yusri from 1 Ikhlas (the last class of the whole standard). This was because, for the past 2 months they had never did any work that I gave them to do.During my teaching, they were either be sleeping or day dreaming. When other people were busy doing work, they would be walking around disturbing people or sleep.Haha!! This pair of twin really perplexed the teachers.

All the teachers, including me had tried to make them do their work. Either by threat or cajoling but it was no use. They just didn't want to their work. Then, I decided to give them time as I still remembered last time our lecturer told us that children have their own pace of learning. I did not scold them when they didn;t do my work. I just let them be whatever they want.

Today, very suprisingly a miracle happened!! Haha.. I taught them body parts today and played a simple game with them where they had to point to their body parts correctly by listening to me. Well, they indeed had fun and afterwards they were asked to copy the pictures and the apellings inside thier books. As usual I did not ask the twin to take out their books or do anything.

Then. students started to give their books for me to mark and suddenly Yassin appeared with his book. I was shocked that he actually drew all the pictures nicely and his handwritings were neat too. Then I loked at him asnd asked whether he did himself and he answered 'Yes!' My heart really swell with pride when I saw he did my work so wonderfully. I awarded him an 'A'!! Then before I went from the class, his brother, Yusri came and handed his book. He also completed my work perfectly and I was really happy that time. So, I decided to give them presents ( a packet of biscuit for each of them). They were so happy that they jumped around!!

Well, looking at their faces really made me feel so happy and proud. At least it showed that my effort of teaching them and being a clown in front of the class is not wasted. Haha!! I really got a valuable lesson today - 'Do not give up hope on your students!'

because however slow or bad they are, they will still learn when they are ready. :) Hopefully they will still behave the same in the future so that they can learn more!!

~ New Place, New Life ~

2009-02-07T22:05:00.000-08:00

Why do i say 'New Place, New Life' is because I have shifted to a new place at Lahad Datu. A proper house with a comfortable bedroom, a proper toilet, living room and also kitchen.Now, I'm staying with Ms Goh, a 40 plus years old woman that is still single.Well, she is nice to me.Helps me to buy fruits and also boil soup for me.Hehe..So, its nice staying at this new place.At least I do not need to worry bout flood.Haha..

Meanwhile, at my school, I'm the class teacher for 1 Ideal.The first class of the whole standard.The students are all very cute and will 'salam' me whenever I go out from the class.Besides, they will shout 'Teacher' whenever they see me even though they are far away.Well, looking at them reminded me how I behaved last time when I was 7 years old.

However, an unfortunate incident happened to one of my students few days ago.His name is Elyas and he is a smart boy.That day when I took them for injection, we found that his whole left hand was covered with bruises and scars.I didn't notice anything until then because he always wore jacket to school. Then, he told us that his mother hit him.Everyday, whenever he refused to drink. The revelation shocked us as we thought what kind of mother will do this to her child.

Then, I brought him to see the headmaster and my headmaster called his father the second day.The father actually told the headmaster it was their ways of teaching the children not to misbehave and he permitted his wife to beat the children.Another shocking revelation was, the mother is actually his "STEPMOTHER"!!! That is why she is so cruel towards them.

On the second day, the birth mother with all her relatives came to the school.Then the father also came and they nearly quarrel as both side wanted to take the child.Suddenly, my PK came and scolded them and I was shocked to See my PK so fierce.At last the case was brought to the police and I hope that the stepmother will be arrested so that she will not have the chance to beat the children again. Later on, we got to know that the stepmother actually told other people that it was the school teachers who beat his child until like that.So, my colleagues told me that luckily I brought him to see the headmaster if not I may get into trouble.

The lesson that I have got from this incident is be aware with your students problems and care for them as if they are your own children.Well, being a class teacher is really tiring but looking at my students laughing and smiling at me and calling me 'Teacher' is really rewarding!! I hope that my students will grow up to be successful just like the Teacher.Haha

Year 2009 !!

2009-01-01T08:46:00.000-08:00

Happy New Year!!!!!!

So fast it's already 2009 and I'm one year older again.. That is not a good news!! I want to be young forever but I know it won't be happening so I will have to enjoy all my 'Young Years'!! Haha.. I was 24 at 2008 and a lot of memorable, sweet and exciting things happened to me at 2008. So now let's recap the events that happened at 2008!!

1. Chico & Oreo!!

Baby and I decided to get ourselves guinea pigs as pets so we bought ourselves two little cute guinea pigs (Chico and Oreo). It is nice to have them as they make us feel more responsible being an adult since they need to be taken care of and I will like to wish Chico 'Happy Birthday' as his birthday falls on Jan 12th. However, we have to give them away now and we really feel very sad. Hope that we will be able to get them a good owner.

Chico and Oreo. They are so cute!! I love you guys!!

2. Trips to Penang, Genting and Malacca with my family.

Last year my family and I were able to go for some unforgetable trips and we managed to have lots of fun. Actually it had been many years since we went for a family trip so it was really great to be able to have family trip last year. Hope that this year we can have family trips again as I really like going trips with my family. XOXO !!

Genting's Trip :)

Penang's Trip :)

Malacca's Trip :)

3. Graduation !!

Yes, after 6 years of sweats and tears, I finally graduated with honors!!. I was so happy as I was able to graduate with all my coursemates but at the same time I was also sad because we have to go our own separate ways now. Anyway, I enjoyed the 6 years that I spent with all of the B.ed TESL guys!! :)

Happy Graduation!!

4. Sabah!!

I was posted to Sabah, Lahad Datu on August last year and when I heard the news I actually cried due to the horror stories that I heard from people about Sabah. However, when I reached there I really enjoyed myself. I got to know a lot of friends, did a lot of exciting activities and got to visit many beautiful places at Sabah with my Sabahan friends like Mori, Auntie Lorita, Autie Maznah, Auntie Mazni and all the others. The people and the places there are really GREAT!! However, I still hope that I will be able to come back to KL to teach as all my families and friends are here.

Camping at Dantai

Semporna, where Mohanesh and Nori are posted. Had an enjoyable trip there :)

The beautiful and cold Kundasang

Catching fish at the stream :)

5. Registration At Tian Hou Temple

Baby and I decided to get register at Tian Hou Temple on 4th of October. We had all the wishes from our families and relatives. Our wedding will definitely be a great one in the future.. Hehe..

6. Trip with Rawang Gangz..

Last year I managed to go for a trip at Genting with my Rawang friends. I really had an enjoyable time with all of them as it was not easy to go out for trips like this together as a gang. The gossiping, fooling around and making fun of each really made this a memorable trip. Hope that we can still do it this year. :)

7. Christmas Celebration

I celebrated last year Christmas with Tisha, Ronald, Kelvin and his gf, Beverly, Siva and Baby. We had our countdown at the Curve and we really enjoyed ourselves. On Christmas day, we went to the ACTS church to see Julia perform in the Big Show. Then we went for to watch 'The Spirit' which everyone thought sucks. Haha.. Well, I would say that I had an incredible Xmas!!

8. New Year

Yesterday, we had our countdown at the Curve again. We were thinking that the Curve would have an incredible countdown with fantastic fireworks. However, the countdown wasn't that great and the fireworks were not great too. Besides, we had to wait for the jam to ease until 2 am. Tisha and I were exhausted as we went shopping first at One U at 2pm.Hence, the New Year countdown wasn't that 'Great'. Hopefully this year's countdown will be better than 2008.

Anyway, I hope that 2009 will bring me and all the people that I love lots of good lucks and happiness. Besides, I also hope that I will be able to come back to KL to teach.

Happy 2009!!

Yogi Tree

2008-12-29T06:07:00.000-08:00

Yesterday, my husband's family, my husband and I went to Yogi Tree at the Gardens. Yogi Tree is a restaurant that serves healthy food as it's concept is back to original cooking.It only uses natural ingredients and original also flavours. Hence, the prices of the food are quite expensive.

The ambiance is very relaxing and you can see many advises on the wall.

However, the taste of the food is very good even though they do not use any artificial ingredients. The ambiance of the restaurant is also very relaxing and you can see many advises on health and food on the wall. Yogi Tree serves Western cuisines and also Malaysian cuisines too so consumers have more optuons.

The counter is also written with today's special menu so you can choose the food from there without looking at the menu too.

The service there is very good too. The waiters know their stuffs very well and are able to recommend the dishes to us very well. All the dishes that she recommended were very good. :) They were very attentive too as they would make sure that all the food were served on time and they would refill our water without us having to ask. The most important thing in a restaurant is the service and I would say that Yogi Tree has a very good service. Thumbs up for them!

The menu of Yogi Tree. We had ordered Original Roast Chicken, Chicken Cheeseburger, Chicken Pie, Nasi Ayam Percik and Spanish Fried Rice. We also ordered three cups of fruit juice. All the dishes that we ordered were delicious but the serving is not very big except from the Spanish Fried Rice which can be shared among 3 people. The desserts there are also very nice.

There is one good news.Anyone who has HSBC credit card can enjoy 20% discounts on the main dishes until 31st December. So, anyone who has HSBC credit card can try to go there. :)

~Chico & Oreo up for ADOPTION~

2008-12-27T22:14:00.000-08:00

If you have read my previous blog then, you should know about my pets Chico and Oreo. They are two cute guinea pigs. Chico is a Shelty which has long and smooth fur meanwhile Oreo is a Abyssinian which has short curly hair. They are very tame and cute and they do not require a lot of time to take care of them.

This is Chico. He has brown and white long fur. He is very tame and he likes to eat carrot form your hand. He is a Shelty.

This is Oreo. He has black and white short fur and that is the reason we named him Oreo. He is very tame and he is a coward. He is an Abyssinian.

Chico is 11 months old and Oreo is around 10 months old.We really love them but we have to give them away because my hubby (Li Fu) is moving out soon from his house with his family and the new house does not have space for my two guinea pigs. I'm feeling so sad as we have been taking care of them for a long time.

The ways to take care of them are very easy.Everyday, change the newspaper on the bottom of the cage so the room will not be smelly.Then, give them water and food.Just make sure the food and water will not run out as they will die if they do not eat or drink in more than 12 hours. Then, every week just bathe them once and cut their nails once every two weeks. They also like to eat carrots and spinach but they are not allowed to eat too much of these as they will get diarrhea and they may die because of this.

Anyone who read this blog and is interested in adopting them please contact me (Sophia - 0122238138) or Li Fu (0123598687). We will give you the food, the cage, the nail clipper and also the shampoo. So, any good Samaritan please call us. Thank you.

~ Sakae Sushi ~

2008-12-25T05:47:00.000-08:00

On this Tuesday, Tisha and I went to the Curve for another shopping spree. After one whole day of walking around, we decided to fill our stomach with Japanese food and we chose Sakae Shushi for our dinner. I have always wanted to eat Sakae Sushi as many people told me that the food there is good.

Tisha and I looking tired after one whole day of shopping. :)

The first thing that we noticed when we were seated was a small washing basin that was on the wall. We thought that it was for washing hand and Tisha put her hand under the water to wash. "Awww!! It was hot," shouted Tisha and she flung the water all over the place. I started to laugh at her and coincidentally the waiter was standing by our side that time.I saw him smirking too.Haha!! Tisha was so embarrassed and she blamed me for making her to wash her hand using the water. Well, next time have a better judgement gal.Hehe!!

The washing basin that burn Tisha's hand. Hehe..

The different types of sushi that are served there. The price is from Rm1.90 - 3.90.

We ordered a plate of ebidon, tuna sushi and also salmon sushi.Then I ordered a bowl of chicken udon and Tisha ordered Unagi hot bowl. Besides, we ordered green tea ice as our drinks and when the green tea arrived only we got to know that the hot water from the basin was actually for mixing the green tea. What a revelation!! Haha!!

The Unagi hot bowl.Tisha complained that she could feel the small bones in the Unagi and said that Sushi Zanmai Unagi is better.I also agreed with her that Sushi Zanmai food is better than Sakae Sushi and have more choices.

The green tea set. You have to do the green tea yourself and I think it's a brilliant idea as the waiter or waitress do not need to help us to refill. Besides, Tisha burned her hand because of this too.Hehe..

You can also order your food by using the PC. Just click on the food and the waiter will send them to you. But no one actually use this facility.

2008-12-22T09:03:00.000-08:00

I finally went for a trip at Genting with my friends from Rawang after like ages of not being able to go to the previous trips with them.There were 13 of us that went for the trip and we had an enjoyable,memorable and the funniest trip ever.I will remember this trip forever as it was the most memorable and unforgetable trip.

Eight of us (Siew Yee,Han Wee, Wai Ching, Suet Chin, Chai Yian, Yoke Thing, Git See and me) rented a van to go up to genting. Meanwhile, Hui Ling, Figo, Jan Hou and Ming Hong had the luxury of going up by Figo's car.So Unfair!! Haha..Actually I enjoyed sitting in the van with all of them because we were able to gossip all the way up there. There were few incidents that happened during our trip at Genting. Now let's see what are the incidents.

1. The Van Stopped Us At Cable Car!!

Mr Raymond, our driver was supposed to send us all the way up to Genting but he actually stopped at the cable car station and had the audacity to ask us to take the cable car to go up. The reason that he gave us was the car engine might over heat.What the HELL!! He didn't tell us anything about this ealier and all of a sudden he just threw us at the cable car station.All of us were so irritated and when we saw the line, we nearly fainted. There was like around 500 PEOPLE waiting for the cable car and it would take us hours before we could even board a cable car. We were thinking of taking a taxi and ask Mr Raymond to give us back RM4 each and suddenly he agreed to take us up.It seemed that the engine would not over heat after all. At last we reached Ria Apartement safely without the need to push the car.Haha!!

Siew Yee and me posing in the van happily :)

2. Karaoke Session

The first activity after we had our MC D lunch was to sing karaoke but we decided to do it during the dinner time as the price was cheaper and we could have our dinner together.Most of them had never gone to Genting's karaoke before and it was already several years since I visited Genting's karaoke, so all of us did not know how the karaoke room would be and we were all filled with anticipation of having a superb karaoke session. Deng - Deng - Deng - Deng! The room was actually quite small for 13 of us and the things inside were all very outdated.From the TV to sofa and even the remote control.We actually had a good laugh at the room, thinkin that it was such a 'Dinosaur room'. The problem of singing k at genting was we were not able to sing new songs because they did not have them. We actually had a hard time selecting our songs to sing. The worst thing were the mics and the surround system. 13 of us actually had to share two mics as the waitress said it was their protocol of giving two mics for each room. Then one of the mics was not working and after changing it, the mic was still giving us problem. Sigh......You should upgrade all the rooms Tan Sri Lim.

Happily snapping away during our Karaoke session. :)

3. Bowling Session

We girls decided to go bowling at around 11 something as the guys wanted to go to the casino and this was the most memorable bowling session that I had ever had.First of all, I started of terribly and scored only 9 points after 3 games and all of them were laughing at me saying that the last one would have to treat all. To show that I was not a terrible bowler and also to save my wallet, I actually strike at the 4th game.WOW!! All of them were shocked and we were also lauging as we belived the reason that I strike was because I jumped on the floor till the pin drooped.Haha..Could anyone believe that?At the end I won the 3rd place.Haha. The funniest incident that happened was a group of foreigners (we suspected from India) actually had the audacity to come inside and took the balls and threw them on other people's lane.The couple beside us were the victims. When we were looking at the drama unfolding beside us, something happened to Hui Ling. It was her last game and she had just strike so she had another chance to play. When she was looking at the 'drama' an Idian woman who was from the group actually took a ball and sneaked up to her lane and threw the ball - inside the 'LONGKANG'. Haha!!

When Hui Ling saw it, she went ballistic and she scolded the woman "What the HELL, why did you simply threw on other people's lane?" All of us were shocked to see her so fierce as this was the first time we saw her scolding at someone so fiercely. Then the woman kept on apologising and ran back to her family. At the end the staff was able to ask them to leave. It was actually the funniest thing that I had ever seen before and all of us really had a good laugh at it.We would not forget this incident forever, especially 'What the Hell!'. Haha

Posing with the ball during the game :)

Where you throwing the ball gal?Haha..

4. The Van Didn't Come to Fectch Us!

On Sunday, we had agreed with Mr Raymond that he would come to fetch us at 2 pm sharp. 8 of us were waiting impatiently for him when the clock was showing 2pm and most of us were rushing home as that day was 'Go Dong'. Yian decided to call him after we waited around 10 minutes and he said he was on the way up. After another 15 minutes, she called again but this time he did not pick up the phone. She continued calling him and he still didn't pick up. After half an hour, we were all getting angry so we decided to give him a last chance. If he still did not pick up our call, we would just call taxis to send us back. At the end, he still didn't pick up the call so we decided to take taxis to go back. This was the most irresponsible person that I had ever seen before so next time please do not ask Mr Raymond to send any of you to anywhere because he does not know what is called RESPONSIBILITY!

All of these incidents actually make this trip more fun and memorable. I will cherish this memory forever as we all know that it is not so easy to go for a trip together again in the future as all of us are busy with our own lives. However, I hope that we will have many more chances to go for a trip together again :)

Just now I just got to know that two of my friends that are teaching in the same school with me have successfully applied to go back to their hometown. I do feel happy for them but at the same time I'm feeling sad because I lose two friends from the school.One of the teacher is Teng and she is from Sarawak.Furthermore, she and me are the only Chinese teachers in the school and now I will be the only Chinese in my school. :(

Every Sunday, she would fetch me from my house and went church with her.Then. we would go to eat lunch together and now I will definitely miss all these outings.Sigh.. Besides, she was the only one that I could speak in Mandarin with and any problems that I faced I would also tell her.Well, I will definitely miss her as she is a good friend to me. She really helped me a lot during the first few weeks that I was there.She was the one that fetched me from the airport,introduced me to the school teachers and told me all about the school.Without her, I think I would face a lot of problems.

However, I wish her all the best in her future school and get a baby faster with her husband.Hehe.. I will miss u gal :) xoxo

I just came back from one of my guy friends' (Hock) house as his sister is getting married tomorrow. It seems like this year and particularly this month, many people are getting married.Just recently only my cousin sister got married and on the same day she got married, we actually saw another two wedding cars on the road.Wow!! Is it because this year is a n auspicious year to get married or is it because 'Love Is In The Air?'

I'm hoping that whoever that get married this year will have a happy marriage and be blessed with many children. Actually, I really love wedding because it brings many people (friends, relatives and family) together. And all of these people will be the one that witness your happiest day in your life. So, I hope that my wedding will bring everyone together and be blessed by all the people that I love and cared for. :)

I recently read a book by John Grogan, Marley and Me. It's been quite a long time since I came across a book that made me wanted to finish it in one shot and Marley and Me was successful in doing this.I could not put down the book the moment I started to read it.

This book is really wonderful and even people that do not love dogs will also fall in love with dogs after reading this book. Marley and Me is about a couple, Jenny and John, who just got married and everything was wonderful for them. Then they brought home Marley, a wiggly yellow fur ball of a puppy that would change their life.

When I was reading the book, I would laugh at the antics of Marley and would get angry just like the author when Marley did something really bad.However, at the end of the story, I was crying as Marley left this world after 13 years with his beloved owners.

This book actually reminded me of a puppy Labrador, Xiao Q, that I had taken care of few years ago. She was exactly like Marley naughty, cheeky and adorable. Just like Marley,she had left this world too. Hopefully, they meet each other at the heaven and can play together happily.

You can visit Marley and Me website at http://www.johngroganbooks.com/marley/index.html and you will be able to check out Marley's cute pictures. Now I can't wait for the movie which will be released on X'mas day.Hopefully the movie is as good as the book.

Yesterday Tisha,Siva and I decided to go to One U, Parkson for shopping.But actually it was only Tisha and me went for shopping meanwhile Siva just waited for us at Starbucks.Haha..Pity the guy. We decided to eat first before we started our shopping spree.So, we went to eat at Sushi Zanmai. I didn't bring my camera so I had to take pictures with my hand phone.

This is the menu of Sushi Zanmai.Their theme is more to greenish colour.

These are some of the dishes that they offer. I ordered Ebidon (small), fried prawns with egg on rice.The taste was not bad but I felt the Garden's branch served bigger bowl compared to One U.

These are another two dishes but we didn't order any one of these.Haha..The food price is very reasonable there.Ranging from RM 8.90 to RM 20++. So, it's really affordable for people who like Japanese food.

These are Temagi and we wanted to order at first but scared could not finish so we didn't order at the end.However,I have tried these before at the Garden's branch and they were absolutely fantastic!!

It is an open air restaurant and the whole restaurant was decorated with paper lanterns.The ambiance of the restaurant is very nice.Very suitable for gathering.

Tisha and Siva pretending not to look at the camera.Haha!

After we had our fantastic lunch, we went for our shopping spree.It was nice to go shopping with Tisha again.The two of us spent nearly 3 hours shopping at One U.Then at 5.15pm we went to watch Bolt. We wanted to watch 3D at first but the price was too expensive,RM16 for one ticket! The price was exorbitant!!So, at last we just watched the 2D one and it only cost us RM7 for one ticket as we used student's card.Haha!!

Bolt is a very nice movie as it was funny, exciting and touching.The characters in the movie are all so cute especially the hamster (RHINO).Haha!! Remind me of my guinea pig.

Bolt,the super dog,trying to save his owner, Penny.This movie really shows us that dog is indeed human best friend.Forever loyal to their loved one.

We went home after the movie and it was a great day going out with Tisha and Siva.Let's do it again guys!! :)

2008-12-15T07:59:00.001-08:00

Last Friday (12th Dec), my hubby, Ben, Yian, Fan Yu, Yian's brother and sister in law and I went to Malacca for a 3 days 2 nights stay. We started our journey at 7.30pm on Friday evening and we reached Malacca town at 10 pm.Before that,we even stopped at the Sungai Besi tol to eat Mc Donald and KFC as our dinner.Actually I ta pau the Mc Donald and went to KFC to eat with them.Haha.. Wanted to eat Mc D too much. :p

Me, saying Cheese for my hubby :)

The first stop that we went was the Portuguese Settlement as they said they wanted to see the Christmas decoration.When we reached there,my hubby and Ben started to take out their huge cameras and started to take pictures everywhere.

Ben and Yian taking pictures but it looks like they were laughing more than taking pictures.Haha!

Kissing the glowing balls on the Xm@s tree!!

The street of the Portuguese Settlement was already lighted up with beautiful lights and most of the houses were decorated beautifully.We were all amazed at the creativity of the Portuguese people of decorating their houses.They were all so beautiful!!

The whole street was lighted up with beautiful and colourful lights.

The beautiful lights actually make the tree looks so beautiful and extraordinary.This tree is in front of a Portuguese family's house.

After finished taking pictures of the Portuguese Settlement,we decided to go to Jonker Street for a walk. Jonker Street looked so different from the last time I went there as most of the streets were decorated with red lights and the buildings actually looked very nice and romantic. It was already 11 something so most of the stalls were already closed. However, I still managed to buy a few things (two pairs of shoes, a shirt for Brandon and book marks). Well, I'm indeed a shopaholic. :)

The whole Jonker Street was decorated with red lights that made it looked very antique and romantic.

We decided to go back to the apartment (A Famosa) at 12 something as we were very exhausted. It took us nearly an hour to reach the apartment as we lost our ways and everyone was so exhausted when we reached.However, we were not allowed to rest when we reached there as we had to clean the apartment before we could sleep.So, we only got to sleep at 3 am.Phew..It was really tiring.

The next day we woke up at 10 am and got ready to go to Malacca town to have our chicken rice ball (Malacca's famous dish). Many people were already queuing up when we reached the restaurant.So,like all the other people we had to queue up under the hot sun too with our stomach growling hungrily. At last it was our turn to enjoy the meal.Yaay!! However, I felt that the meal was not that delicious actually :(

The chicken rice balls. Looked Yummy but not as nice as I thought.Disappointed!!

The chicken rice restaurant that is loacted on the Jonker Street but we didn't have our chicken rice meal here.Haha!! Maybe the chicken rice here is better than the one we had.

After finished eating our not so delicious meal, we decided to walk around Malacca town.

This is a stationary shop and I think that this shop is really very old.The signboard also looks very old.Malacca is indeed a historical place.

Not many places can see this kind of old building anymore.The building reminds me of how my hometown looked like many years ago.Sigh..

I had bought a Cheong Sam from a shop but not from this shop because the Cheong Sams from this shop were very expensive. The Cheong Sam that I bought was only RM70. A very good bargain.Hehe..

Taking pictures in front of Christ Church Melaka.Another ancient building.

Posing at the old church with Yian and Ben :)

My hubby was able to capture this fantastic picture of the vessel during the sunset.Good job Baby!! :)

I really had an enjoyable trip with all of them and hope that soon we will be able to go for another trip together.Now, I'm anticipating for the Genting trip with my secondary school's friends. :)

When we go to someone's wedding,it always remind us that this world is full with 'love' and 'romance'.Looking at my cousin sis getting married really makes me feel very happy as now she can have her own family with her beloved husband.It is not so easy to trust someone forever and be by his/her side for the rest of your life.So when someone find their soul mate or 'the one' then it's really wonderful.Hence,I really want to congratulate my cousin sis as she has found her 'true one'.So, gal faster gets a baby k?Hehe..

The happy couple getting all the wishes from us. :)

The first wedding dinner was at One U 'Chua Hing' and I was very busy as I had to help my cousin to sent guests to their seats.It was very chaotic as some of the guests would not follow the seats that had been assigned to them and would simply sit wherever they wanted. My cousin sister was very nervous and looking at her made me thought of my wedding in the future. However, I hope that my wedding will be held in a church as I wanted to walk down the aisle and bless by Jesus. Walking down the aisle is the most romantic wedding for me. :)

On Sunday, was the day that she 'chu gah' which means her husband (Sin Foo) would come to get her from her house and bring her back to his house.The 'tea ceremony' would also be held where they had to serve tea to the elderly and receive their wishes and also 'ang pows' or jewellery. Besides, we got the chance to play tricks on the husband. Actually, we abused him more.Haha.

We asked him to drink milk with 'wasabi' from the milk bottle.Then he was asked to answer questions about his wife and he was only given 10 seconds.Haha.If he could not answer then we gave him to eat chilis with 'wasabi' or bread spread with wasabi,chili and vinegar.So, we 'the jie mui' had fun looking at him eating all the stuffs.However, his brothers or 'heng dai' helped him out to eat all the stuffs.If not he would be in trouble.Before he went inside the room (where the bride is), he had to give us 'the jie mui' ang pow. Well, the 'heng dai' didn't give us a chance to count the money as they pushed us to get into the room.In order to save myself from being squeezd and sufficated I had to ask the people inside the room to open the door.'Deng, deng,deng', Sin Foo got to go inside the room at last.I think when he saw her, he must felt vey elated as he had to pass through so many satges to get to her.Haha..Sin Foo, it's not that easy to marry my beautiful cousin!!

Sin Foo drinking wasabi milk from the milk bottle.I think the taste was not that good.Hehe..

All the 'heg dai' helping him to drink the wasabi milk.BRAVO guys!!

At last got to his beloved wife.SWEAT!!

Serving tea to her parents.Now, Sin foo has to call them Mom and Dad too. :)

Going to her in laws house and officially become a wife.Congrats gal!! Have a happy and wonderful marriage :)

F J Benjamin was having warehouse sales at Royal Park from 28th Oct to 30 Oct.So, my bf and I decided to go and checked out the merchandise on sales and we were thinking of buying watches there. The place was so crowded especially the watches' counter that we had to pushed and squeezed our way to the counter.However I did get the watch that I like.Hehe..A Gc watch which was worth of RM1070 nad which I only bought for RM400!!!! Actually it was my bf who paid for it so thank you baby.Hehe..Im so happy bout it and I love the watch. :)

The Gc watch that I bought.Yaay!!So happy I got a good bargain.Hehe..

Then we went to the Pavillion to cut our straps and in front of the Pavillion, there was a big and magnificient X'mas tree which looked like a cake.It was so beautiful!! So, I took a lot pictures of the tree :)

The Gathering with my friends :)

I met with my friends today from the "B.ed TESL" at the Curve after nearly 3 months of not meeting each other. It was fun and exciting meeting them again and our first activity was to sing K at Red Box.7 girls and 1 guy (my bf) in the VIP room of Red Box, so you can imagine how rowdy were we in the Karaoke room. Actually we were having more fun taking pictures than singing since all of us like to pose.Haha..

Posing happily with my friends at Red Box. Siaw Hui, Sin Yuan, Hwa Cheat,Jia Wen, Tisha and me. Woon only join us later.

The engagement present that my 'Crazy' friends gave me.Haha!! All full of naughty thoughts.However, thanks guys. :)

La la la la la...... Jia Wen and Siaw Hui singing with gusto. Huuray guys!

After 3 hours of endlessly screaming, shouting and singing we left Red Box happily. Then, we decided to watch movie but we couldn't watch the cartoon (Bolt) because it was too late so we decided to watch Twilight, a love story of a vampire and a girl. Before we went for the movie, we were able to go to the Curve for shopping and also for taking some pictures there as the Curve had been decorated with Christmas decoration. The decoration was superb and breathtaking so we, The Posers, of cours would grab the opportunity to 'pose and snaps' . :)

Snaping pictures at the Curve with different poses :)

Posing at Friday's.

Twilight was a very boring movie and everyone grumbled about it. So, after the movie we decided to eat dinner at Friday's since today is also Friday.Haha.. At Friday's, we were snapping pictures again so that everyone can know that we were having fun.Hehe.. It was fun eating dinner together as we were able to chat and gossip and chat and gossip. :) We also celebrated Siaw Hui's birthday at Friday's eventhough her birthday had already passed. She was asked to sing a song and also to blow the candle from afar. Afterwards the waiters sang a quite 'lousy' birthday song for her and all of us wished her Happy Belated Birthday. Ooops.. Forgot her present. Hehe..

Siaw Hui was asked to sing a song and she sang a 'MySunshine' which sounded like a little girl.

Hopefully, we will be able to come out for another gathering soon and H@ppy Holid@ys to everyone!!

Today is my bf's birthday.He turns 25 today so I wanna wish him H@ppy BirthD@Y b@by!! We went out to One U to watch movie (James Bond) and then we went to his favoutire's reastaurant CHILIS to celebrate his birthday. Well, of course I was the one who foot the bill. Haha!!Since it's his birthday so it's OK :)

Our appetizer (nachos). YUMMY!! :)

The main course (Chicken Fajita).Also YUMMY!! :)

Afterwards, we went to Lookout Point, Cheras to yam cha with Ben and his gf and also to take pictures. The place was very beautiful because we could see the whole KL but unfortunately it was raining when we were there.However, we still took many nice pictures of the place.

My bf claims he is half professional photographer so used his Nikon camera to take pictures of the great view. So, I just disturb him. Haha..

The fantastic view from Lookout Point. Can see KLCC and KL Tower.

This is CHICO

This is OREO! Cute le? hehe

Having pets is not that easy actually.Having two pets is harder.Haha!! But my pets are only two little guinea pigs. Actually they are quite big now compared to 6 months ago.This is because they only eat and poo then eat and poo again. Haha!!

Anyway, first time when i saw them I straight fell in love with them. Oreo was so tiny whenI first bought him from the pet shop but now he is so huge.Haha!! Maybe we feed him well. Today, I had to bathe them with Latifah (my bf's maid) and I realise they are getting heavier. I think maybe we should feed them lesser. Hehe..

The reason we bought them last time was because we think dogs and cats are too hard to take care so guinea pigs are easier cuz just need to feed them only. However, they poo and pee a lot so sometime the room gets smelly. Hence, we have to bathe them every weekend. Since, I am posted to Sabah so my bf (Li Fu) has to bathe them with the maid. Hehe..

Actually, they are not that hard to take care because they are actually very timid so any contact with us will send them into a fright. The favourite place for them is their 'blue house' where they can hid inside it to avoid any contact with us. So, we only put them inside the cage and let them live their own world. As long as there is food and water then they will be fine. Hopefully these two little fellows will be with us for a long time :)

This is their sanctuary :)

Today is Brandon's birthday party but actually his actual birthday is on next Thursday. We celebrated his 2nd birthday at Sure Pizza which serves delicious pizzas and pastas :) Today, Brandon is very happy because he gets a very beautiful and cool cake (which has a truck, an excavator and Bob the builder on top of the cake). Everyone including Brandon did not want to cut the cake because it was too beautiful!

It was so hard to catch this lil' boy to take picture with me because he would move before the picture was taken. So, I look very clear in the picture but he looks very blur. Sigh.. Brandon, next time be still when you taking picture with me k? :)

When the time to blow the candles, Brandon was shy to do that.Haha.. His parents had to help him to blow the candles. Well, hopefully next year he will not be shy anymore.

Lastly, I hope that Brandon will always be a happy boy and all his wishes will come true in the future. H@ppy Birthd@y Brandon! :)

After being away for one month from my hometown ~RAWANG~ at last I'm back here.I will be having one month plus holidays and and Im really happy about it.Haha..Now everyday I just sleep till whateva time I want, online, watch dramas and chit chat with my family. It was great to be at home.

Being far away from home, have really taught me a lot of things especially how to be independent. Besides, I have met with many great people such as Mori and her family, Auntie Mazni and her family, Anutie Maznah and her family, Aunti Lorita, Ben and he husband Faldixon and also Teng (a gal from Sarawak). All of these people have taken good care of me and I really miss them when Im back here.

I have forged a deep friendship with all of them especially Mori and her family.Sabahan thought that I'm a Dusun as they say I look like Mori.Haha.I have many sisters over there as Ben ans Teng also look like me it seems.However, Mori is really good with me.She took me to Sandakan then to Kudat and at last to KK. We had a lot fun.

I got to see the rural areas at Sabah and would you imagine a ~TOWN~ girl bathing using the kolam (lake) water which the colour is very yellowish.Haha.. It was such an experience that I know I would never get it by just staying at East Malaysia.Besides I have to wear sarung to bathe.I was so worried the sarung would slip and people could see my body the. But luckily Mori tied tightly for me.

She also took me to the Tip of Borneo (Simpang Mengayau). This is a very special sea as it is situated in between the South China Sea and Sulu Sea. The waves between these two seas clash with each other and the view is breathtaking. Now I know why people say that Sabah is a beautiful place. I have never seen such an unpolluted sea with such a great view. All of you should go there one day :)

However, I have missed the chance to go camping with them because I came back on the day that they went camping.It was such a waste. I really love going to different places with them because it was really fun. Now, I will have to wait till next year to go back there. It was actually a blessing for me to be able to go to Sabah as Im able to know many great people and get to go many great places. :)
