Reflection...

My church pastor, or any living creature who had studied a course called Theology would ask us all to reflect our year and count our blessings as we approached the end of one amazing/disappointing/tragic year. I would say my year is rocky but ironically I have nothing to write about. But after seeing what my kawan Angelin being thankful in almost every single detail that made her 2008, I think there are things for me to be thankful about this year.

I am glad that I made it to Uni. Though I'm studying it in a college, but I'm glad I get to pursue what I always wanted to do. I am thankful for the doubts that came about in my 2008, because they taught me that in life if we keeping walking around and manipulated by our doubts, we will get nowhere. My sis told me that in life our perfect plans will not trun out to be what they are. They will be sometimes the opposite of what we desired, but whatever served to you at that time, just eat it. But do not let go what you are dreaming for. That's what she says.

Speaking about my sis, I am thankful that she's there. Though she moved out now, I am thankful that during that sad moments of her leaving, I know I am slowly growing up. And get to know that I was too emotionally dependent on her that only by her leaving that I can really stand up on my own.


And my 2008 is nothing without the constant sassy-skanky 3 outings that gave me happy memories to think about when I feel sad. Kawan-kawan, I sometimes wonder what will happen to us when we lost contact. Will we be this happy? Will we find other mates who are willing to reenact every possible pictures or sculpture we see? Will we find friends who are willing to tolerate our constant want for outdoor picnicking? Our views on clubbing? And our out-of-this-world choice of friendly outings? You both are the best!!


The island getaway. Yes, I still want to go back to Perhentian. And try snorkelling again. I gave up on one trip so this this time I will not. I will not fear drowning anymore and will take beach cliches pictures with Angelin.



And coming to realise that I do look good when I really dress up and be a little particular about my appearance. My mum was right actually. I remember how she always nag about me not keeping a great outlook when I told her I don't look that good. hehe. And yea, I am thankful I did not constipate in 2008.....I think. Nevermind.


People say 2009 will be tough because of the whole recession fever. I think I will control my spendings, and try my best to keep my tuition job. But I will keep my heads up and continue working on resolutions I have not achieved. Like getting my body tonned. Yea. It's still quite flabby. and yes, picking up the guitar. For real, coz next year I will be attending guitar class...starting this coming saturday. If I get to attend a vocal class, that will be good.

Okay. I should be content, I know...

Happy Times

A simple word 'dinner' might be just food for most people, but for us, it's a discovery. Just like how Newton discovered gravity when an apple fell on his head (there's this joke that says if Newton were to be a Malaysian, the fruit will be durian), we discovered our new attributes after having too much cheese.


Our hidden passion for High School Musical though we lambasted them teruk terul whenever we talk about the mindless tween craze.


Our first step to parenthood...Tak payah watch Snoop Dog's Father Hood on E! dah.


Our potential in becoming a boy/girl band. Hahahaha. Harapan industri muzik tempatan semakin cerah. Syabas!


Our almost-similar views when we think of wing yew. Ahahahhahah.


How acessories can trigger our animalistic side.


If Santa ever have kids, they will look like the one above.


And the fact that I really like taking emo pictures. Dunno why. Must seek help.


Oh. I finally get to watch Cape No.7. They said it is the best Taiwanese film ever made in a long time, and definitely it is. Love every part of the movie. hehe

We're Just Ordinary People...

You know what's the joy of meeting old friends? You can actually catch up with the changes of your old friends' life. Inevitably gossips about their personal life will sprout like our standard 4 science project (where we put a few green beans on wet cotton and wait for it to grow into tauge) You will either be marveled, shocked or disappointed by the way your old friends morphed into a totally different person.

Promiscuous sex machines, switched sexual orientation or preference, bizarre makeovers or disgusting ideologies about mankind. All these seem normal to me now. Maybe it's because many people around me are dropping into one of the categories here. Or maybe this is the real society my dad has been warning me about. People changed. Drastically, while me and a few of my closest mates are still here wondering why we are still the same or at least not much difference. Most of the time we are thankful that we are still who we are before, and enjoy the news of others' metamorphosis while sipping imaginary mojitos. (Most of the time it's Coke, Coke Light and orange juice lah. haha)



I am not a self-proclaimed saint or 'jebus', so I am not going to judge them. Even I myself have rough edges too. How they are now is probably because of the route they chose to blend into their college or uni life. And I am blessed enough to have Him and the people around me now to make me realise that the Yi Pin today is as special and as precious as the rarest gems in the world.



To my kawan-kawan; let's just celebrate Christmas to the fullest this year. Let's just freeze time, put aside whatever challenges we have to face that will make us emo and enjoy the time we have together. So that in future when we have trouble times, we still have this piece of wonderful memory to look back and smile again. To anticipate for our next reunion.

Hahaha. Ths is Little Britain USA. Sebastian is the new Prime Minister. ahahahhaha.

Christmas...!!

I love festivities, especially Christmas and Chinese New Year. I love the decorations in malls where you really feel the whole aura of the festivals. Not forgetting the fact that these festivals are the times where I get my new clothes that I will wear for the rest of the year. Hahaha. Well, I do get one or two in the middle of the year.


It's the whole spirit of getting together and giving that touches my heart every Christmas. I remember how I used to spend a few days in church just to prepare for the Christmas celebration for my youth fellowship. We will work all day, have lunch together, shop for the necessities together and joked and talked while we work. Though they are the people I meet every week, but the fact that we spent time more than we used to together gives me the joy. The joy is similar to the one I have when I am on a holiday with my kawan-kawan. Ah..Christmas....


I don't think my adik will bake cheesecake (or figure out how to make cheese with padi in space...ahahahahhahah) So I am aiming for something simpler. Kimchi stew or tofu stew with bean paste will be great. Though Christmas is warm here but having them will be good.


And yea...new clothes. hehe.

How Fast Can You Run?

 

Yes. How fast can you run with something you want so much but have no money/chances to buy one? Angelin and I were discussing how to steal the Longchamp poster above from the store in The Gardens. Hahaha. One of us will have to keep the door open while the other pull the poster off. We chose not to do so after much thinking. Maybe we'll do it when Aimee comes back. She can distract the salesperson. hehe

Ah. Christmas season. Seeing the Christmas lights and christmas decorations will be warming. I have so many wishes for this year's Christmas. Hehe. I got my new handphone dah, so I should be thankful. Now I must get my adik to learn how to make cheesecake....and jadi belia negara yang berguna by baking one for me. ahahahahhahaha.
