Untitled :D

Well, I do not really know how to name this post, so I just named this "Untitled". Really, I had mixed fillings as usual-to me, I am a walking plate of "Rojak".

Thursday, 30 December 2010

It was an ultimate food fiesta. I ate quite a lot yesterday-except at lunch.

Breakfast: Low-po-peng and tuna sandwich.
Lunch: cendol, a slice of bread and a piece of nyonya kuih.
Dinner: long bean rice and Popiah.

Actually, the main thing which I want to highlight is the dinner. It was actually the FIRST TIME I D.I.Y-ed my own popiah! I helped my mom to prepare the ingredients before the popiah was made. The combination is quite simple-stir-fried "bang-guang-cha", omelet, green peas (Ido not know the species of course), bean sprouts, lettuce, and the popiah skin of course, with some chili sauce, fried shallots and sweet sauce as condiments.

Pictures loading... please wait...








ERROR! Pictures not found.

Sorry! I actually did not take any because my camera is out of battery. Anyway the popiah tastes delicious! Well, my first popiah is a disaster. I actually put too much condiments and fillings until my popiah almost bursted. My dad is even crazier-he actually deliberately stuffed LOADS OF FILLINGS into his popiah skin and folded it into a triangle!

I ended up almost like a balloon. I ate a large plate of rice and three popiahs. Luckily they were fresh, not fried!

Today is the last day of 2010. Well, that is not the point because all of you sure know about this, right? XD

I went to school for the work at the Cooperation Shop in school this morning. It was a last-minute crowd there and the entire Cooperation Shop was packed like a can of sardines. I was to pack the books for Form One. Oh my God, the two-and-half-hour period was a perfect workout. My friends and I had to carry books here and there and serve the customers at the same time. Some were patient, but oh my, some were...

OBNOXIOUS!!!

"Woi, cepatlah sikit! Saya nak balik!!!"

"Faster lah!"

Excuse me, we are not robots. We are no Androids. We are made of MEAT AND FLESH. Never mind, that was the perfect time to train my patience. Yet, MY PATIENCE IS LIMITED!!! I may look tame alright, but I am not really the patient type. (Sorry for emo-ing here...) Yet I am happy that many of them were patient. :)

I had a haircut in the afternoon. After that, I turned on the radio to listen to the Top 100 in Hitz.fm (93.6MHz in Perak) while surfing the net at the same time. This is what I saw when I opened my Facebook-after those computer jams of course.




Well, there are 4 friend requests, a friend suggestion, 14 pokes and 45 notifications. Those are not much, but I was quite happy. I have 537 friends in total for now (too little for me of course) Okay, happy, but not until ecstatic. Later, I blogged and chatted-but the chat disappeared later. WHY???!!!

Never mind. It is about six hours and forty minutes from now until 2011.

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND STAY HAPPY ALWAYS GUYS!!!

Daughtry-What About Now

Shadows fill an empty heart
As love is fading
From all the things that we are
But are not saying
Can we see beyond the scars
And make it to the dawn?

Change the colors of the sky
And open up to
The ways you made me feel alive
The ways I loved you
For all the things that never died
To make it through the night
Love will find you

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late
What about now?

The sun is breaking in your eyes
To start a new day
This broken heart can still survive
With a touch of your grace
Shadows fade into the light
I am by your side
Where love will find you

What about now?
What about today?

What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love had never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late
What about now?

Now that we're here
Now that we've come this far
Just hold on
There is nothing to fear
For I am right beside you
For all my life
I am yours

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love had never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?

What about now?
What about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love had never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it's too late
Baby, before it's too late
Baby, before it's too late
What about now?

Daughtry-September

How the time passed away? All the trouble that we gave
And all those days we spent out by the lake
Has it all gone to waste? All the promises we made
One by one they vanish just the same

Of all the things I still remember
Summer's never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly by
But the memories remain

In the middle of September we'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end

Now it all seems so clear, there's nothing left to fear
So we made our way by finding what was real
Now the days are so long that summer's moving on
We reach for something that's already gone

Of all the things I still remember
Summer's never looked the same
Daughtry September lyrics found on http://www.directlyrics.com/daughtry-september-lyrics.html

The years go by and time just seems to fly by
But the memories remain

In the middle of September we'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end

We knew we had to leave this town
But we never knew when and we never knew how
We would end up here the way we are
Yeah we knew we had to leave this town
But we never knew when and we never knew how

Of all the things I still remember
Summer's never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly by
But the memories remain

In the middle of September we'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end

2010 Blues

Okay, it is three days more before we finally step into 2011. To be frank, I actually felt too many changes this year.

I told you guys the changes in me in my previous post. Well, okay, I am not going to repeat them anymore. Yet, I felt there are many strange changes in the world today. Shameful ones and happy ones too.

1. 60% of Malaysians are overweight. (Including me... haha!My BMI is 24 something.)
2. There are many natural disasters, such as the snow storm in north China which killed many. Volcanic eruption in Indonesia, flood in Australia... when these ordeals will end?
3. The number of suicides are skyrocketing... and Alviss Kong is the latest, I think, all because he is lovesick... IS THAT WORTH? O.O
   
4. As for the National Budget, WHY THE SERVICE TAX ON FOOD INCREASE? What about the tax on branded goods? WHY, WHY???!!!
5. Price hike... I'm sick of it. There is only a thing which does not rise... SALARY.

Yet, I am still proud of something.

1. Malaysia won numerous medals in the Commonwealth Games in India.
2. Ten years before 2020.
   
3. And... I am going to be SEVENTEEN!!! XD

What else? Oh my goodness. Well, let us move on. 2010 is going to be over and here comes 2011. Forgive and forget the past. Let us view 2011 as a year to marvel further! And before I forget...

SPM!!!

OMG!!!

(Please comment on this weird post, thanks!!!)

School's Gonna Back...

And this is Miss Regret here... XD

Form 5 next year!!! SPM!!! And... I am still playing a FOOL!!!

It is just a week away before school reopens. I will be in Form 5, as told in some previous posts. Oh my God, what miscellaneous feelings, as I am equally happy, frightened, worried, excited, and lost at the same time. Queer, right?

Another thing is that I have to give up many things once I entered Form 5... :(

1. Online can be done only ONCE A WEEK!

2. I will have EXTRA HOMEWORK-for SPM preparation.

3. I will have to be cooped up in the study room for long.

4. I have to do something I hate-listening to LONG SPEECHES in school! (there is a special reason inside yeah)

5. I will have to be a night owl at most of the time-which is something I experienced this year and of course, "baby I hate it, the way I drop to the floor" (because of tiredness, heehee!)

Now, I am going to make a brief review of what I did this year, from bad to good in sequence.

Negative actions:

1. While away hours and hours in front of the computer.

2. I can get angry TOO easily...at times! XD

3. I start to watch the television-for too long hours, sometimes!

4. I tend to be quite a spendthrift... XP

Neutral actions (Good or bad?)

1. I start to love trendy clothes, not the outlandish ones of course.

2. I always want FREEDOM to SPEAK OUT! (of course, no sensitive issues)

Good ones

1. I start to LOVE housework!

2. I no longer tend to expect too high for anything (but sometimes I got that feeling too!)

3. Finally I know how to turn a deaf ear when people treat me as a laughing stock. O:)

Just like you all, let us countdown to the year of 2011. By the way, what's your new year resolutions? ;)

Boys Like Girls-The Great Escape

Paper bags and plastic hearts
All are belongings in shopping carts
It's goodbye
But we got one more night
Let's get drunk and ride around
And make peace with an empty town
We can make it right

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight

Tonight will change our lives
It's so good to be by your side
But we'll cry
We won't give up the fight
We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
And they'll think it's just cause we're young
And we'll feel so alive

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight

All of the wasted time
The hours that were left behind
The answers that we'll never find
They don't mean a thing tonight

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway

Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight

Boys Like Girls-Thunder

Today is a winding road that's taking me to places that I didn't want to go
Whoa (whoa, whoa, whoa)
Today in the blink of an eye I'm holding on to something and I do not know why
I tried

I tried to read between the lines
I tried to look in your eyes
I want a simple explanation
For what I'm feeling inside
I gotta find a way out
Maybe there's a way out

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder

Today is a winding road
Tell me where to start and tell me something I don't know
Whoa (whoa, whoa, whoa)
Today I'm on my own
I can't move a muscle and I can't pick up the phone
I don't know (I don't know, I don't know, I don't know)

And now I'm itching for the tall grass
And longing for the breeze
I need to step outside
Just to see if I can breathe
I gotta find a way out
Maybe theres a way out

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain

Yeah I'm walking on a tightrope
I'm wrapped up in vines
I think we'll make it out
But you just gotta give me time
Strike me down with lightning
Let me feel you in my veins
I wanna let you know how much I feel your pain

Today is a winding road that's taking me to places that I didn't want to go
Whoa

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder, and I said
Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
Oh baby bring on the pain
And listen to the thunder

Merry Christmas!

When is Christmas? Tomorrow, of course! I am not a Christian but I want to wish everyone, especially Christians, and a Happy New Year! (For everyone of course) I am sharing some little goodies here...

Winter Solstice Fest 2010 冬至来咯！

It was the Winter Solstice Festival today! I think many Chinese celebrate this festival too like my family, although there is no winter in Malaysia! :D

Okay, well, I woke up at 5.oo am to help my mom to make these rice "balls" or "tang yuan. There were no fillings in any of them. Yet, they do not taste bad!

今天是冬至节。我想众华人应该会庆祝这节日吧，反正冬至大如年嘛！不过，马来西亚当然没有冬天啦！

好吧，别罗嗦了，今天我在上午五时帮我妈妈搓汤圆。里面没有馅料，可是这些粉粒还挺好吃呢！

Aren't the little white balls cute?
白色的小粉粒，可爱吧？

Blue balls are coloured with this "bunga telang" juice. They look like skinned blueberries when cooked.
用兰花汁染汤圆成蓝色。煮熟后，很像剥皮后的蓝莓。






Pink balls come from this dough.
粉红色的汤圆就是这样制成的。







Green, gooey naturally-flavoured dough from screwpine leaves.
又青又黏的班兰口味糯米团。








Cook the balls before putting them in cold water for a springy texture.
先把粉粒烫熟，再把它们浸入冷水，汤圆才会有弹性。









Ready to be served!
可以上桌了！

Kuala Lumpur Trip

Friends, I am back here to share about my trip to Kuala Lumpur with my family. This post may be a bit too long due to numerous pictures placed in it, but I sincerely hope you will love them!

Day 1, 18 December 2010
At my 1st Aunt's house

My sis and cousin, Timothy

Chocolate Galore!

Here are just some souvenirs my aunt brought for me from her trip in Australia. I Love them!

Day 2, 19 December 2010

At KLCC (Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre)

We went to Aquaria at 10.30 am.It was a long queue. The ticket is quite pricey-RM35 for adults with MyKad. Yet, the abundance of marine creatures and the fascination in it was worth the price! :)

Back to the Shopping Complex.


It was almost 2.00pm when we left Aquaria KLCC. Christmas Cheer was around the large shopping complex. Later we had lunch at Level 2 (if I am not mistaken). Gosh! There were many restaurants for you to choose from, but the eating place was not in the outlets as usual-like a food court instead! It was almost a half hour later until we finally found our seats. Really, the place was damn crowded. I ordered penne and a sub from Subway. Of course, I ate only half of the sub. Gluttony, right?

We then left KLCC at around 3.00pm and returned home at 4.15pm. Unfortunately, at around 7.15pm, we were stuck in a traffic congestion at the highway to Taiping. The reason was pretty ridiculous and unfair to many road users including my family-There were too many people who were heading towards Kuala Lumpur that the right lane at my side was actually opened to them! At the same time, there was a road construction work going on.
UNFAIR! NO EARLY NOTIFICATION! WASTE HALF HOUR, PETROL AND RINGGIT!!!

That spoils the day.

Anyway, I love this trip to Kuala Lumpur. I hope to explore more wonders there soon, but there was something which I do not want...

TRAFFIC CONGESTION IN THE STREETS OF KUALA LUMPUR!!!
