oo6. "Kamu tak tau cakap Hokkien ahh!?!" GRR >:(

Woke up at 6am, and the driver from the driving school called my house phone at 6:15am and told me he's outside my house. 15 minutes earlier than the time he told me! Needless to say, I didn't take my morning shower and was obviously not in a super cheery mood. To add to the shit feeling I had, some aunty started talking to me loudly in Hokkien. I was just staring blankly at her, and she started talking to me in BM. Everyone was staring like I'm some kinda freak. Grr where is the justice softspoken people when you need them?

Long story short, never -repeat, NEVER- take the driving theory course yourself.
You.
Will.
Die.

Went to church for meeting @ 7pm. Was late cause of the traffic jam due to rain, grr :( Discussed about the Sabah mission trip. It's so exciting, really. Can't wait to even pack for it! Haha I'm in charged of Photography, so yay! Pictures time, woots :D At least I know it's something I can really do well at and bless people with :] Mustbring items -- sarong (I've never worn one in my entire life), sleeping bag, 5105123091 plastic bags lol, etc.
It's so terrifying yet I know I will learn a huge load from this trip. Really hope I come back with great testimonies to share and of course, pictures ;)

At Kath's place now.
Going to church @ 6am tomorrow for morning prayer! Yawn :)

*Post to be edited soon*
Summary - Next post :]

oo5. Zigzagging through the roads 0:)

After more than a year of Mom lecturing me for procrastination, I'm going for Undang.

At 6.30am tomorrow, grrr.
Until 4pm-ish. And it'll probably be full of 1992-yearborns.
Kill me.

&.
WHY ISN'T THERE AMERICAN IDOL TODAY? :S
RAWRR.

On a lighter note, I watched Slumdog Millionaire @ Gurney today.
Will update & review that soon.
We all know how nice my reviews can be 0:)
But be surprised, because this one is a watcher ;)

Love,
A Pissified KaiWen.

oo4. It's Just Another Manic Monday..

Today was my last day of work! And probably the longest ever. Okay it's the exact same time frame of working, but it feels as if every second is hesitating to just.. TICK >:(

Got my salary today! So proud of myself. This whole working-in-dad's-clinic thing has taught me so many things. I've seen Dad cut open people's gums and eliminate the decay, then sew it back; seen an implant being done, Dad drilling titanium screws into the gums, etc. It sounds utterly disgusting, I know. But trust me; it's fascinating. Damn, I probably sound like a freak now and you probably wouldn't wanna read this blog ever again. HAHA :P

Anyways, I've also learned to humble myself and do little little odd jobs; folding toilet paper, folding tissue paper, folding cotton gauze, folding cotton balls (yes, lots of folding :P), watering the plants (I love this part because I get to use a really adorable watering can :P), arranging the magazines (patients these days are so uncivilised, manhandling the magazines.. tsk), reloading anesthetic into the metal syringes, standing beside Dad while he's performing surgery, sitting in Dad's private office eating chips *GRIN*

Got Baskin's with WeiSern after work; someone's finally got braces! :D Haha.

It wasn't intentional. And you agreed, why did we finally settle on that solution if you had something to retort back? It is so unfair on my part because it was a 50-50 chance and you clearly lost. I've yet to tell anyone about this, but what you said; and who you told.. That just proved to me how shallow you can be; because you yourself know; if you confronted me about it, you would lose. You could've told another person, but you chose that person. Not because that's the first person on your mind. I know your reasons. You knew I would never tell anyone and make you sound bad.. And you're right. I won't.
Stop faking. Please.

It's just another manic Monday..

oo3. Of Vanity & CottonBalls

I know you thought I forgot, but I didn't, really. I don't have any presents whatsoever, but I really miss you. I miss our walks to Chem, Bio & Physics labs, us talking about really stupid things. I miss how you HATE PJ periods, and your dorky blue 'food cooler' and how you always have really yummy food during recess. I miss how you always give me the mangoes because you don't like them. I miss going to your house and cutting the styrofoam for our Canteen Day or whatever day. I miss you lecturing me about studies and giving me tips before every exam paper. I miss how you have something to say about.. EVERYTHING. I miss the time where we were laughing so hard and Pn. Suguna asked you to read the passage and you couldn't, lol. I miss telling you everything.

I love you, Mei!
And I hate it that you're so far away.
Sorry for being rude just now. No explanation will suffice, I know :\

SHORT HAIR!

Nahh, I haven't snipped off one-third of my hairlength yet, just wondering if I should. Aha! Gosh, it's been 6 years since I had short hair :\ How unadventurous of me. HAHA :(
I look so chineseschoolgirl-ish though. Imagine if I started speaking in Mandarin. *pauses* Okay, let's not go there. Haha! :P But I truly wish I could speak Mandarin, really! Even Kath can speak a little now. It's so unfair considering my Mandarin was better than hers like.. last year :( Maybe I should sign myself up for Mandarin classes. Not to write or read or anything like that, just have a normal conversation or.. ordering food :S

Yeah, this is how I look like now. Actually yesterday, but details schmetails :P

Oh, went for CG yesterday, and it was a really good discussion about premarital sex. I personally feel that girls these days should have standards and not look for love in the wrong places. Besides, protection might fail you, accidents may happen! That will just really ruin your life and all the plans you have for your future. Also, you don't exactly know if the guy is gonna be with you when he finds out you're pregnant :P So the best way is abstinence! I'm sure your future husband/wife will appreciate it ;) HAHA.

Random picture time! :D

This is one of the things I do @ work :P
It's not easy, trust me! WeiSern couldn't do it, bhahaha :D "fat ugly (cotton) balls" :P
Requires lots of patience and skillsss. Cough.

Got a French mani-pedi!`
My toes are getting ugly though, probably because of the "over-wearage" (lol) of flipflops.
Note To Self: French pedicures.. not a very brilliant idea.

Friendship Night / Valentine's Day:

The bookmarks yourstruly designed :D

This performance was crazy, I've never seen/heard anything like it.
So much talent and skills, really.

Duet by WeiSern & Praggy :D
Very impressed, it was good!

Err.. that's just Gary being.. Gary. Nyahaha :S

Alright. Gonna have lunch soon!
Bye, loves.

oo2. The Rants & Ramblings Begin, Ho Ho Ho :P

Hello readers :]

Feeling so lethargic these days. I blame it on the weather. Got into the car yesterday and the screen said it's 42 degrees Celcius. It's the heat wave, and it's gonna wipe us all out :O CARPOOL, people :P

On the other hand, I noticed that there are some pretty stupid and plotness movies in the cinema nowadays. Grr, I hate anticlimax and flat movies.

Watched New In Town on Tuesday, and it was a big letdown :\ The plot was predictable, the dialogues were bleh, and the acting was so, so mediocre. Coming from Renee Zellweger, seriously, after The Bridget Jones Diary, Chicago, etc, you'd expect more. Definitely not a movie I'd pay 10 bucks for. And don't even get me started with Four Christmases. It was in time with the holiday spirits, but such a no-brainer; anyone could figure the ending, and there was NO PLOT, period. It was just irritating for me, I'm a total movie bum.

On a lighter note, saw the pictures my Dad took in London on the computer. The outskirts of London are really quaint and so.. cottage-y :D

I want a house like that. Y'know? The basics, nothing overwhelmingly fancy, or something which intimidates people. I love homey houses :D Old cushions, chips on plates, quirky objects with stories behind them; ahh, so adorable :]

AMERICAN IDOL SEASON 8.

Somehow this year, I just don't feel the hype that much. I don't think you really go uphill from the two Davids last year. Seriously c'mon, how do you upstage that? Also, I don't find many outstanding personalities. Heh but anyways, I watch every episode religiously and I do have some favourites :D

My absolute favourite, the one I'm rooting for all the way!

Danny Gokey!

I'm sure many people are gonna be voting for him, he's one of the many strong ones in the competition. He really has a powerful smooth tone :D And his signature smile, haha so humble and cute ;) A great personality as well. I love how he looks so genuine when his bestfriend Jamar Rogers left! Awwh :P

I love the welder and the oil rig roughneck too. It's cool how American Idol has the ability to transform people with ordinary everyday jobs' lives :] Mmm, my favourite girl contestant would be.. Ann Marie. I didn't think her Top 36 performance, Natural Woman, was 'old fashioned' as Simon said. I think she deserves more credit than that. It was a little edgy and strong, and I loved it :]

Oh where do I begin? Tatiana; she is driving me insane with her mood changes and drama scenes. "I'd like to thank all of you. Thank you SOO much. ALL OF YOU, the cameraman, the producers, all of you! *sobbing*" Seriously?! But it's hilarious as well, laughing with my sisters and Mom about her, lol. I'd like to see Carol watching her, haha her facial expressions and all :P :P :P And this week, it's as if she's having a whole different personality, I was waiting in front of the TV just waiting for her to crack and give us that horrendous laugh of hers again. "My friends told her I never laugh like that" "I guess it's because of the pressure" "My friends said it totally wasn't something I would do" *scoffs* excuses.

Nick Mitchell; I dislike this guy with every fibre of my being. I don't -DON'T- think he should be in the Top 36. Give his spot to Jamar, c'mon! Or someone more deserving. He wasn't even funny. It's just cos he sang better than what was expected from his alter ego, Norman Gentle. I didn't think he showed any star quality at all, and I definitely can't imagine him being American Idol. What was Simon thinking?

Sorry for being harsh, but seriously.
What is wrong with the media today?!

I need my sleep.
Goodnight, loves.

oo1. Take Off.

It has been forever, I know :D Have been super super super busy, but getting used to the frenzy *grin*
Random updates first:
1. Happy Valentine's! Will update about this later *winkwink* ;)

2. Oh, what I've been busy with. Aha; am now working in Dad's dental clinic, Penang Dental Surgery, as a helper in the lab :D All I do is sterilize equipments and tiny jobs, but as I always say; it's the tiny details that matter. It's totally the behind-the-scenes job, but it's the foundation of the clinic, y'know what I mean? What would the dentists do if they don't have any equipments to use, huh? ;) HAHA okay sounding so defensive right there :P I even met Nicholas at the clinic! Haha we go waaaay back ;) Haven't seen him in.. almost 6 years, no joke. Changed so much and he left for Perth already! Which brings me to #3..

3. Eldest sister, PeiWen, is leaving to Perth on Monday. Time passed so fast, and I didn't even see it coming. Ask me 2 months ago if I'd miss her, and without a beat I'd reply no. Harhar :P But seriously, these 2 months have been just a time of bonding and y'know *fingers entwined* 'sisterhood' :O Haha cheesy -.- But she's so much fun to be with and I will definitely miss her. Definitely.

4. What I'm busy with also is going out. Spending quality time with people who are really building me up. Things I did - Going around town like tourists, visiting another country (which I have yet to update), sleepovers and spending quality time with my girls, random trips with WeiSern; NOT to malls - pet shops, furniture stores, The Chocolate Boutique, Penang Hill, etc., baking more than 200 cupcakes - baked and wrapped 72 cupcakes for Christmas! ;), lotsa shopping, icecream trip with Kath & QL @ Queens, etc.

5. This is a subnote from #2! Why am I working, you ask? Because I'm trying to save up money for my Sabah mission trip in March! Woots, so excited about it. A team of us are going to Sabah and into the super deep orang asli villages and just reach out to them and teach them certain everyday things, and basically just cheer them up and teach them more about God. It's so super exciting! *squeals* haha. Really looking forward to it because it's gonna be a time of helping others and also restructuring my faith and strength in God.

6. I didn't go to London. Yes, I was supposed to join Dad there 2 weeks ago, but finally didn't think it was a good idea cos the weather is hell. Worst snow storm the Londoners have ever experienced in 18 years, so really, I can't imagine how insane it was. But Dad didn't watch Mamma Mia! the musical there, so at least he doesn't get to rub it in my face now. Nyahaha.

7. I really miss my retards. Belle, Jan, Carol, Mon :D These girls mean the world to me, and I haven't seen them in forever. But will be seeing them next week, so I've gotta start compiling a list of what to tell them because we always forget :P :P :P HAHA. Jan, hope you're doing fabulous and rocking US with your endless energy ;)

8. I'm not studying YET. MOST probably enrolling into A Levels course in March at KDU just one week after my mission trip! Also, SPM results have been on my mind lately. I don't know why, considering it's still one whole month away before the results are out. I kept saying I'll be contented with whatever I get, but come to think about it, it will be a major bummer if I don't get 10A's and above. Maybe it's because of the scholarship I'm going to get from KDU IF I do get 10A's +, but really. I want those A's so badly.


I'm gonna get some sleep! It's been a long day. Had a late night yesterday @ Zach & Jon's house, and gave EiLeen & Wihandro a midnight tour of the new house, and slept laaate. Woke up and lazed around the house with XiaoWen & Allan, got quick lunch from McD, and went home to cut up about 80 sandwiches for tonight; thanks to Mom, XW, Allan & WeiSern for helping. Imagine 5 people making sandwiches, haha boys are hopeless :P :P :P

Have been typing so much! :O Might be boring, but I'm gonna come up with more pictures! Haha haven't been taking much pictures :( Just enjoying the moments, hee :]

PS/ Haven't installed a cbox! Just leave a comment if you have anything to say, haha :]
