Trying out SK-II's Pitera Miracle Water

2011-11-27T01:20:00.006+08:00

For Christmas this year, the company has decided to allow us to buy anything (except for groceries, vouchers) up to a value of RM350 as a gift for ourselves (we are allowed to top up additional costs).

And so I got myself some products from:

I had to top up about RM650 more! -__-

So far, so good, have not had any breakouts *knock wood*

To my observation, the Miracle Water seems to be helping me balance my skin and reduce the amount of blackheads & whiteheads. Why do I say so? Well, yesterday I went for my facial (not SK-II facial, you can get an SK II facial done at the counter in MidValley's Metrojaya/Jusco i think. I believe it costs RM135 per facial), and my beautician didn't really extract many blackheads/whiteheads, which is a really good sign!

Let's see if the same happens again in a month's time and we'll know if it's really me having wistful thinking or not. Anyway the cleanser is out of stock currently in Malaysia and Singapore as well. Hmmmm.

Okay, just a quick post to share. And no, I'm not getting paid to blog about this.

Visiting Copenhagen - land of the Nordic (and good genes)

2011-11-12T01:22:00.006+08:00

*All photos were taken using a Blackberry*

I wanted to cry when my camera died-ed.

To update really quickly, I left my previous company, October 31st was my last day at work. Joined a new company on November 1st, and on November 2nd, I went for a work trip to Copenhagen, Denmark as the new company's HQ is there.

Anyway, i brought my Nikon DSLR, and guess what, on the day I wanted to use it, the lens just died-ed. Yes, that's right. Camera unusable *sigh* So i was left with my Blackberry, and as we know, Blackberry cameras leave much to be desired.

Copenhagen is a pretty interesting and nice country, reminds me a bit of Amsterdam (water canals and architecture), but I feel the people are nicer here. Had not many problems communicating with the locals, and they are generally quite helpful.

The company booked me into the Copenhagen Plaza hotel, a 4-star hotel there which has much history (google it! apparently many celebrities have stayed there. In fact, in the lobby, there is a list of celebrities who have stayed there). There is also the Library Bar (not to be confused with Library bars in Malaysia), with loads of books which can be read during the day even, and it is done up with heavy wood paneling.

Generally the cost of living there is freaking expensive! Example : 15-minute taxi ride to work from the hotel cost approximately 270 Danish Kroner (about RM 160) wtf. Travel tip: Taxi fare is payable by credit card there! Joy!

Luckily all expenses are borne by the company (and charged to our corporate credit card), if not i'd be bankrupt in no time.

Some memorable moments in Copenhagen:

1. Visiting the Little Mermaid statue:

Yes, my Danish colleagues warned me that she would be really little, and they were not joking. Dunno why but I thought she would be bigger. Felt a little bit cheated, sort of like when u chat with someone online and he/she sends you a picture which shows a good-looking person, but when you meet the person in real life, they turn out to be NOTHING like the picture. Yep. That feeling (not that I have ever had this experience). Apparently last year the statue was away in the Shanghai exhibition, and the statue has been defaced (head gone missing etc) before. ~~Makes you wonder what notice/board they put up on the rock when the statue was away. 'Gone to China BRB' or 'Out of Office'? Hmmmm...~~

Got lost walking in the park on the hunt for the Little Mermaid. Travel tip: Do NOT ever ask tourists for help. Ever.

On the way back at the Osterport train station there was a flasher next to me and I didnt realise wtf. Fucker ~~I hope your prostate gives you problems since you like having it out in the cold~~. I would have pointed to his 'wedding tackle', laughed and said "so small!" had I realised.

2. Taxi ride to Radisson SAS Scandic Hotel

Went with my two colleagues from China there for dinner at the Blue Elephant, a Thai fine dining place. One of my colleagues who has been to Denmark many times before asked the taxi driver if he knew which Radisson Hotel it was as there are two in Copenhagen. She told him it was the one with the casino. And he was like yes, there is only one casino in COpenhagen. Later she asked him whether it was safe to walk back to our hotel after dinner as we initially wanted to walk back. He paused, then said yes, Copenhagen is very safe, even if you walk back at 2-3 am.

We realised during dinner later that the taxi driver probably thought we 3 Chinese people must have wanted to visit the casino, and also thought we could win money and walk back later. (which explains why he said it was safe to walk back at 2-3 am when my colleague asked whether it was safe to walk back AFTER DINNER).

We did not visit the casino though. And we didnt walk back either (too damn cold).

3. Candy shopping:

None of it are for me btw. I just got myself 2 chocolate bars.

A few other memorable occasions there like visiting the Department Head's absolutely fucking huge and awesome house for a welcome dinner, getting separated with absolutely no contact whatsoever with my colleagues in Fields department store, dinner with colleagues and so on.

Too tired to continue, need to sleep now to offset my jetlag.

Thanks for reading, apologies for not updating as often as I would've liked.

Boss, I have principles too, you know?

2011-08-21T03:09:00.004+08:00

It's not only you in the whole wide world who have principles and abide by them. So do I, boss. So do I.

As the mysterious, flickering flame of the candle as it consumes its wick, thus the candle burns while shortening simultaneously. (ah ling's metaphor for certain circumstances)

Let's put it mildly ; I for one have never been the person who 'lets the candle burn into nothingness'. 'Nuff said.

There's this huge seed of anger in me right now and if I don't get rid of it soon, it will soon 'explode'. And I really don't want that happening because it will take me 3 months to escape el shitholdo.

Is the gomen telling us that fair and clean elections are not possible then?

2011-07-09T16:26:00.004+08:00

Malaysian police raid SAPP HQ because the signboards had the word 'bersih' and was yellow WTF.

A friend of the boyfriend got stopped by police for driving a yellow Limited Edition Kelisa. (True story)

Police taking particulars of people wearing yellow clothes.

A friend's registration ceremony at the temple postponed to next weekend because of this.

We (friend whose wedding was postponed included) don't blame BERSIH 2.0. We blame the ruling powers that are. A democratic country this is supposed to be, and a democratic country it is NOT.

KNNCCB.

IF, at all, the elections are fair and clean, wtf are you getting your panties knotted in a bunch for?

For those who walked today (and knew they are most probably going to be arrested), we salute you. It takes a lot of courage. Good on you. The pictures in Malaysiakini, Malaysian Insider, Malaysia Today and Free Malaysia Today show Malaysians in an act of solidarity ~~fuck, I'm not going to use the 1Malaysia word here~~ and that is really touching.

On the other hand, I digress. Today, the Federal Highway was super empty. I could have gotten down and rolled around and I would have been fine.

March on BERSIH!! (Click here to find out what the bloody fuss is over a word which means 'clean' in Bahasa Malaysia and the colour YELLOW.

Mendapat kunci rumah dengan rasmi.

2011-07-02T02:34:00.003+08:00

Dalam lebih kurang masa 10 jam, saya dan teman lelaki saya akan mendapat secara rasminya kunci kepada rumah pertama kita. Walaupun ia sesuatu yang sudah diidamkan kita untuk masa yang lama, namun kita tahu juga bahawa tanggungjawab yang perlu dipikul merupakan beban.

Namun begitu, kita berharap dapat menyewa rumah itu secepat yang mungkin untuk meringankan beban yang sedang dipikul. Bagus juga kalau sewa itu dapat membiayai bayaran kepada bank serta kos yang dikenakan oleh pihak pengurusan perumaha tersebut.

Saya rasa bahawa lebih baik saya tidur sekarang kerana saya asyik membeli-belah di laman web yang menjual baju dan saya baru sahaja membelanja lebih kurang RM500 dalam masa 2 jam. Adakah saya sudah gila?!?

Sekian, selamat malam dan terima kasih kerana sudi membaca 'post' blog ini dalam Bahasa Malaysia.

Happi Father's Day.

2011-06-19T23:57:00.003+08:00

Not many people @ Grand Imperial in Plaza Damas when we took the family out for Father's Day Makan. Hmm. Why-ah?

Is it because people brush Father's Day off as any other day? True, we shouldn't wait for all these ~~over-commercialized~~ occasions to celebrate. It should be everyday. ~~OK, every other day. Pokai-lah liddat wtf~~

Btw.....

He said it's from HERE. Go figure. It will look like this, apparently:

Screw handbags, we're going for gold.

2011-04-24T23:27:00.004+08:00

I've got 'babies' from Chanel, Gucci, Prada, Balenciaga, LV, Anya, Coach, Tous, Burberry and more.

I've 'seen the light'.

These 'babies' decrease in value everyday. So I've decided not to purchase handbags anymore and to buy precious metals and precious stones instead ~~ok, for the time being anyway. Did I mention I just bought a Dior wallet?!~~

Good idea right! *depressed suddenly feeling very old* -__-"

Have a good week ahead.

Nearly died in Bali.

2011-04-05T00:14:00.002+08:00

What else?

Ended up in a brothel (no kidding!), saw white tigers climbing trees, komodo dragons, crashed some strangers' party, went to the rock bar in Ayana, saw floods, examined 2 squashed snakes, visited padi fields, ate street food and so much more. More later when I update my blog. Reason why I'm blogging so late is because I just finished work not too long ago, meaning I've been working for approximately 15 hours or so. *sigh*

Obviously I wish I was back in Bali. More details later.

Till bikini waxing do we part...and let's talk about hairless pussy

2011-03-27T00:01:00.006+08:00

Today, I nearly died on the waxing table. It was an extremely painful (comparable to time I got tattooed) affair.

Photo credit from HERE

I laughed and laughed in pain. No tears *proud of self*! Surprisingly I felt no shame at 'spreading my legs wide open' for a total stranger to prod and pull and peek at my *ehem*. ~~Prolly cos all my dignity vanished as soon as the bikini wax technician 'announced' loudly to the roomful of waiting people that I was having waxing done o.O~~

I swear to God humans are weird creatures, yes we are. We work our butts off to pay ridiculous amounts of money to put ourselves through the most torturous things we can fathom. Repeat cycle.

Bali in 3 days, bitches.

P.S: A hairless pussy is easier to maintain. No kidding. Really! See below to understand that I'm not just talking cock.

Ted Baker sandals, nike shoes, branded bags, Dorothy Perkins, Warehouse dresses and many more to come ~~hopefully before I lose my enthusiasm to take pictures and upload them~~.

Have decided that having a mountain of clothes, shoes and bags in my room is not going to do me any good, all the more since I have never or hardly used most of my stuff. Having given aways literally many boxes of clothing and more, my room was de-cluttered. And then along came the boxes we shipped from our life in UK.

And so, quite reluctantly, I am selling my stuff =/ Kinda sad but hey! Might as well sell them to people who will use them right?

One of the items on sale there:

My beloved Ted Baker sandals =(

Hop on over to ahlingpunyastore to see if anything catches your fancy. Let me know if the prices are workable, gimme feedback, leave me a comment ~~marriage proposals accepted too~~, anything!

Cat abuser says "sorry", "sorry" my f*cking foot.

2011-03-07T22:09:00.010+08:00

I put "Sorry" in inverted commas.

Because I do not think that she was sorry at all. Yes, maybe sorry for getting caught. Maybe she is sorry because her mother who is also a single parent (since when does being the child of a single parent give you the right to use your family background to murder animals!?!?!) had to close her 'chee cheong fan' stall. But sorry for murdering the poor kitten?? HAHFUCKINGHAH.

Screw your excuses. Screw your insincere sorry. Screw your police report ~~which contained your address btw~~ since you were afraid of those threats. Screw your apology letter. SCREW YOU.

I'm no cat lover, but as an animal lover, whatever you did was simply deplorable and inhumane.

I know of friends who come from broken families. I know of people who have had their whole families perish in horrific accidents. I have friends who come from single parent families. Friends who have never known one of their parents. Hey, EVERYBODY HAS PROBLEMS, BE IT FAMILY, MONETARY, PERSONAL OR ALL OF THE ABOVE. And guess what you twat? NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM HAVE ACTED THE WAY YOU DID.

I truly believe you are mentally-disturbed, but I think you were well aware of whatever you did. To smack the kitten repeatedly with your umbrella and then walk off only to return later to throw the kitten's body and stomp on it and then kicking it aside.

Your mother, the sole bread-winner for your family, should watch the video, and then maybe she can fully comprehend whatever we are all angry about.

Monster. I've seen more remorse on dead fish.

Thriving on 3 hours plus of sleep on Sunday was well worth it for me. But obviously you wouldn't dare come down to face us, the angry crowd innit?

Spot the ah ling. Us looking at the police report. Picture from Komunitikini.

We were also quite disappointed at DAP. You may insist that you have no political agenda towards this whole incident, but by doing certain things on Sunday, you certainly implied otherwise.

And as for Jabatan Perhilitan ~~who were present with the books 'Laws of Malaysia'~~?
We cannot accept your answers. The suspect is no longer a suspect since she has admitted to all and 'apologised'. The video is concrete evidence. What are you going on and on about for about having to 'investigate'?! WTF?! And then what, RM200 fine?

I'm not even going to put your picture on my blog, because:
1. I can't bear to stand the sight of you
2. People actually pay good money to advertise on my site, hence talking about you in a couple of blog posts is enough, don't want your face to be here too.
3. I feel like you
4. I hate you
5. I hate you

Poor innocent little pussy - Pictures of the kitty cat abuser

2011-03-06T03:48:00.003+08:00

God, the internet is a fabulous thing.

With search engines like Google and others, you can find almost anything.

Haven't seen much news on the kitty cat abuser who stomped and smacked the poor innocent little thing to its horrific death in the newspaper, so I Googled it.

And look what we have floating online:

http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=110631&id=1323224420&fbid=1901493700060

Great detective work to all those who helped in making the connection to the person in the video and the person's profile in Facebook.

To those who have not watched the video or have no inkling what I'm talking about, please watch the video below as a reminder that such crap exists in the human race.~~being hung from a big toe upside down 10 stories in the air while having pieces of flesh clipped off bit by bit with a pair of blunt nail clippers is too good for you piece of shit~~

*UPDATE* according to a comment on the Youtube site, she (yes, it's a tomboy, not a guy) has been arrested and will hold a press conference to apologize. Let's see in a few hours time whether this is true or not.

How was your Valentine's Day?

2011-02-15T01:39:00.005+08:00

Received a very interesting present from the partner. Not 'naughty' interesting, just 'interesting' interesting.

He's taking me to Bali again *super excited* and most prolly we can go to the rock bar in Ayana *even more excited* =) Oh, and I got a 3-D pop-up card. Handmade. So creative and lovely! Me likey!! Thank you baby muaxxxxxxxxxx

------------------------------------------------

On another note, should be having a 'tissue box' party a.k.a celebrating the arrival of a new car. No more local, have chosen a brand which has gone global (or rather, Japanese to be more exact).

Test-drove it the other day and with 5 buffaloes in it ~~me included~~, the pickup was still quite impressive. Then hopped over to the *cough*Proton*cough* showroom as a friend wanted to test drive the Proton Inspira. Wow. You'll never believe it.

They refused to let him test drive it because "Sorry bang,minyak sudah nak habis" (Sorry bro, the petrol is almost finished)*Smacks forehead with palm*

Profound words of wisdom which conveyed the utmost impression that (obviously) that particular salesman couldn't be arsed at all to take the car out and pump petrol so that my mate could try it out. Ok,Proton @ Glenmarie. You can keep your car WTF ~~and shove it up your you-know-where sideways~~.

Maybe we were being biased ~~because of all our personal experiences with Proton~~, but if you have a chance, go check the car out. Our grouses are that the passengers at the back does not have enough leg-room, the fittings inside the car look so cheapo and the boot is not big enough. But don't take my word for it and don't agree with me, just go to any Proton showroom. ~~Smart guys get the Inspira, smarter guys get the Lancer~~.

Oh, and girls, when visiting car show rooms in Malaysia please make sure you wear jeans/trousers or at least black undies unless you don't mind flashing others. Found out that the floors of many showrooms are too polished and clean, hence the floor acting as a mirror which gives others a lovely upskirt look WTF.

P.S: Thank you BB for helping me pay half of the car *kisses*

House, then a car? We work hard to lease stuff from the bank.

2011-01-25T22:35:00.004+08:00

Last year with the grace of God (and the boyfriend), we managed to get a house. (Technically it's not ours yet, but the ~~legal loanshark's~~bank's)

This year, we have decided to get me a new car!! *throws confetti hamsters and mandarin oranges* Here's where the problem lies:

1. Not really sure which model to get
2. Up the budget by an additional 10k to get my dream sports car?!?
3. Don't wanna pay monthly installments =(
4. NEED MORE MONEY!!
5. NEED MORE MONEY!!!
6. NEED MORE ....(you get the idea)

Damnit, it's like we're leasing all the stuff we yearn to own from the bank, and working hard to lease even more stuff from the bank.

Depressing wei.

Turning 18, for the 8th year in a row.

2011-01-05T01:57:00.004+08:00

My boss asked me yesterday, 'How old are you tomorrow?'

I answered '18 years old!' ~~and the whole office heard our exchange wtf~~.

The BB surprised me with my fav chocolate cake (with pretty pink flowers n icing), and a mug with a piece of paper inside wtf. Actually he meant it as a 'treasure hunt' with the piece of paper having my first clue written on it. ~~but I FOUND my present BEFORE i even knew there was going to be a treasure hunt hurhurhur damnit I'm good~~

Thank you BB. Damnit, you really are romantic enough but your lying is kinda sucky, hahah@ *kisses*

Actually a few days ago he already stressed, and kept stressing that I should not expect any surprise, and I said it was perfectly fine. After all he did get me 4 different Thomas Sabo charm bracelets, each with their own charms, and that should have been enough presents to last me till next birthday.

Snippets of that conversation:

Him: I'm sorry there will be no surprise present or cake. I'm too busy.
Me: It's okay! But there are the perfect partners who fly back overseas from their job, plan and throw a surprise party, give birth to kittens, dress up as a flying ninja and pick their nose all at the same time. You can't even give birth to kittens!
Him: (censored: something about mating with kittens) I can pick my nose!
Me: ....*gives up hope dies*

Me: BB i want a Chanel bag please! I said please!
Him: *pointing to crotch* Please cut it off so I can be a prostitute! (meaning 'I have to whore myself to buy you one')
Me: -____-"

I love you BB, let's enjoy our Vietnam trip!

When you feel like committing suicide, visit Halong Bay to change your mind!

2010-11-23T20:39:00.003+08:00

That's what Jamie told me anyway.

A few months back, Jamie said "ah ling, if you feel like committing suicide go to Halong Bay in Vietnam. You will change your mind."

Guess what. We're going. *throws confetti and little hamsters on leashes*

Picture ~~stolen~~ taken from a source in google images:

Halong Bay, see you soon!!!

It will be the perfect way to kick start my new year. ~~After all with a well-known retail shopping centre as my client means that my NYE has to be spent with them sigh~~

And holiday with the boyfriend and bestie + tetek? What more could I ask for?

I'm on a Thomas Sabo shopping spree...

2010-11-09T22:57:00.006+08:00

Yes, because I can! *woohoo! throws confetti and hamsters* When we were in UK, we didn't want to buy Thomas Sabo products because we were thinking what a waste of money it would be. In fact, my charm bracelet + charms are a present from the boyfriend. And then, coming back I regret not buying more -__-"" so now shop for more-lah!

~~Also I am slightly constipated and cranky. It's all the carbs, I'm telling you~~

Having a slightly confusing experience sorting out the paperwork for the new 'toy'. It's DONE. I've signed for it. We are about to start paying for it too. Yes, we are legally the new owners of an apartment. At the price we will pay for it, 1238 square-feet is such a bargain! I love going into the basement parking; there's natural forests around. Better savour the amazing green sight before it is gone.

Healthy, simple, hassle-free and cheap lunch ideas.

2010-10-09T23:57:00.007+08:00

Really. I wasn't lying when I typed the above (and I'm still not lying now!).

Today, I'm going to share a recipe for a lunch box which is CHEAP, healthy and simple to put together.

See, a colleague of mine eats super healthily, everyday, his mum actually packs his lunch for him which not only tastes good, but is sure appealing to the eyes as well. Of late, I've been motivated to bring food to work (more healthy, and it sure beats going out in the blazing hot sun).

Was googling bento box recipes, but I think I would fail in assembling the food into cartoon characters (think Hello Kitty!) etc. ~~actually I can't be arsed cutting vege and fruit into little bits~~

So with bento boxes NOT being an option for me, decided to head to Tesco and got:

1) Chicken pieces (the breast part) - RM 4.30 (two pieces)
2) New potatoes - RM 1.09 (A little more than 500 grams)
3) Sweetcorn on the cob - RM 3.50

to make Pan-fried chicken with garlic and herbed new potatoes with corn-on-the-cob.

Pan-fried chicken:

Ingredients:
Chicken breasts
Pepper
Salt
Garlic powder
Brown sauce(HP)
Sugar
Worcestershire sauce (Lea & Perrins)
Tomato sauce

1) Marinade it at least half an hour before. I used pepper, salt, garlic powder, brown sauce, pinch of sugar, Worcestershire sauce and tomato sauce in mine. For a saltier taste, omit sugar/ up the salt or brown sauce. For a sweeter taste, omit salt/ up the sugar or add honey (it will caramelize the chicken). To make it a little bit sourish and tangy, add the juice of quarter of a lemon to the marinade. Personally, I prefer the chicken to be sweeter but hey! It's your chicken!

2) Poke holes in the chicken before drowning it in the marinade or make small slits all over using a sharp knife. This helps the chicken 'absorb' the marinade better. I like to put the chicken pieces in a plastic bag. Tie the bag and shake it so the marinade spreads evenly.

3) Pan fry the chicken. Add a bit of oil if you like, I pan fried the chicken without any oil, letting it sizzle in its own juices and fat. Make sure chicken it cooked through. Check by cutting chicken to see if meat is still raw. Pour any remaining marinade onto chicken when cooking to make a bit of gravy if you like.

4) Remove chicken from pan. Put aside to cool.

----------------------------

Garlic and herbed new potatoes:

Ingredients:
New potatoes
Mixed herbs
Garlic powder
Butter
Salt
Pepper

1) Wash new potatoes throughly. Scrub with brush to ensure all mud is removed. Remove eyes with sharp knife or just leave them on (I do, and I'm still alive and blogging hoho)

2) Boil water. Water level should be more than enough to cover the amount of potatoes you are cooking. While waiting for water to boil, cut potatoes into halves or quarters (depending on your preference). Add potatoes to boiling water. To check if they are cooked, poke with fork. Once fork comes out clean, potatoes are ready to be drained.

3) Drain water. Put potatoes into large bowl. Add a bit of butter, mixed herbs, a bit of pepper and garlic powder. Mix potatoes so all the ingredients coat potatoes evenly.

----------------------------

Corn-on-the-cob:

Ingredients:
Sweet corn

1) Boil water. Water level should be enough to cover the corn. While waiting for water to boil, de-husk corn and get rid of the 'hairs'. Cut corn into 2 or 3 parts evenly. When water comes to a boil, add corn.

2) Cook for around 8 minutes, ensuring corn is thoroughly boiled. Boil the corn longer if you would like the corn to be softer.

-----------------------------

Look at my lunch!

Total cost:
Chicken (RM2.15) + Potatoes (RM0.55) + Corn (RM 1.25/2 = RM0.60 because I used half a piece of corn) = RM 3.30 (approximately 68 pence wtf)

Note: If you're cooking this the day before like I did, I heated the chicken (only the chicken) up the next day before eating my lunch. If you can't stand eating cold potatoes or corn then I'd suggest packing the lunch into a microwavable container and plonking the entire container into the microwave right before eating. Happy cooking! Share with me how your attempts were like IF you do try my recipe out okay?

I like nice surprises like this / G6 @ Gardens, MidValley

2010-09-26T14:00:00.008+08:00

Let's just say when I went to check if my wages had been banked in I got a nice surprise.

---------------------------

Hang out place last night till the early hours of dawn was @ the pub next to G6 club in MidValley. Boyfriend, ah karen and I were there with some other old friends from college.

ah karen and I

The lights' colours keep changing. I like, so pretty!

Photo credits to ah karen and her Blackberry!! *HUGS*

Since it was Ladies Night, ladies who go there get two coupons each for 2 free drinks from their ~~limited~~ menu. The drinks on offering yesterday was Belinni champagne (recommended! Fruity with strong alcohol taste!), Tea Lady (a bit sweet for my liking, but not too bad) and Gimlet (didn't try this, no one ordered this one).
The coupons can only be redeemed between 10pm - 12 am though.

The view from the balcony at G6 is nice, and the landscaping is lovely! Lots of plants and water features everywhere, so romantic.

That's all I want to blog about now, the boyfriend is actually on his way over to ~~watch badminton matches on TV~~ accompany me while I finish up my work. Yes, work work work. I've been working through this whole weekend (WHAT WEEKEND?! KNNCCB), and not spent enough time with him. Furthermore he is going outstation starting tomorrow for a whole week =(((((

Have a good week ahead yah. I will try to find the time to blog about my homemade 'bento box' lunches below RM 5 next.

I can't wait for the loooong weekend.

2010-08-23T22:16:00.003+08:00

Nope, it ain't a typo by accident. It's there on purpose.

Going to the Pearl of the Orient aka Penang for the upcoming loooong weekend. Was also in Langkap (somewhere in the state of Perak) a couple of weekends ago for the weekend with the boyfriend.

Watched Slice and Repo Men over the weekend (Both movies have a twisted ending. And lots of blood gushing everywhere!!!!) Slice is a Thai show, btw. If you like gory films then they are recommended!!

That's it for now, or else I won't be getting much sleep if I sit here in front of my lappie any more.

Work, the monster invading my life.

2010-08-08T01:22:00.004+08:00

About the title, can I say I have a love-hate relationship with this monster.

Been seriously neglecting this blog, omg, SO NEGLECTING is more like it. Anyhow, am kinda apprehensive now our loan for our new 'toy' has been approved, god knows when the signing will take place. At this point in time, work has just managed to tip the scales in our lives, resulting in the office being the '2nd home'.

Oh yeah. This has resulted in me being sick (literally sick. Actually threw up in the office toilet 3 times on Friday night), exhausted, both mentally and physically ~~and I can think of other more fun ways to get exhausted. Like playing paintball for example you pervs. wtf were you thinking about??!~~ and just anti-social.

In fact, I have had to cancel my leave for the upcoming long Merdeka weekend because of a function *sobs*

I.Will. Persevere. I. MUST. PERSEVERE.

Because.......Well, keep reading this ~~neglected~~ blog of mine, and keep finding out what happens next.

P.S: On another note, have had 3 random strangers comment on my tattoo. Happy days.

Happy days, come to me please.

Not much time to blog and to go for outings...Apologies on my end for the lack of blog posts.

House hunting - It's on!

2010-06-11T13:03:00.004+08:00

For certain reasons, the boyfriend and I have decided to house hunt ~~No, marriage isn't one of those reasons~~. I guess waiting to inherit a property from my parents is one of those reasons.

Anyway.

Driving around his housing area sometime last weekend, we spotted this block of apartments. And there was a banner with an agent's number on ONE of the windows. Cut a long story short, we are seeing that place this weekend (ok, I admit! we went into a unit which was unlocked. The key words here are UNLOCKED and UNOCCUPIED), or to be more specific, that PARTICULAR unit). Will also be looking at another unit where the partner currently stays. Depending on how much the unit can be rented out for, I can safely say we are looking at 5-6% returns. Not bad for the amount of investment required, me thinks.

Wish us luck!

Part 1 : Malacca roadtrip.Eat, eat and eat - The best Chicken Rice Balls ever.

2010-05-29T01:34:00.020+08:00

Started work on May 3rd, managed to hit the road for a road trip, and got my paycheck! Woohoo for the moolah!

But anyway..

We stayed at Holiday Inn Malacca. Can I say that the service was fucking FANTASTIC, EVERYONE of their staff there were constantly smiling and ever so helpful. I find that great, considering the fact that we are no 'orang putih' (white people). Yeah, don't you know, it is quite sad that in Malaysia foreigners get treated better most of the time (not always), since many people have this thing about treating non-Malaysians better than fellow Malaysians. ~~In fact, if you wish to experience this first hand, try being in the same plane of a local airline with foreigners~~

But I digress.

Entrance to room.

Yeah, the rest of the photos are in the partner's camera.

Anyway, there's a rain shower in the bathroom, flat screened TV, ironing board + iron, safe, extra pillows in the cupboard, fridge and complimentary bottles of mineral water. Ooh, and on each of the pillows are cloth bands with little signs stating if they are 'firm' or 'soft'.

What do you do if you've just woken up and have time to kill?

You take photos-lah.

Excuse my 'just woken up face' and the ~~crater~~pimple on my forehead. It was Bad Skin Week™.

According to the partner, one is SOFT and the other is FIRM. Hmmmmmm....o_O

We were having a lot of fun playing with the tags while waiting to check out ok -__-"

There's also another picture, but it is a bit *ehem* not suitable for viewing purposes. Jamie who was fortunate enough to see it will attest to that teehee.

Chicken rice balls are a MUST HAVE if you ever visit Malacca. The unique part of this dish is that the rice is shaped into balls. There are loads of places to eat this dish, but the one we always go to is the one in Batu Berendam.

We were lucky enough to wait for only a while before getting a table to sit at. The line for 'ta pau' was omg, super long. This is what the counter where all the food preparation looks like.

Guy walked past and blocked the view. Grrrrrr.

The guy on the left is actually blocking the view of the uncle who chops the chicken when it is ordered. A drumstick? No problem. 5 seconds is all it takes. Seriously. He chops so fast, our friends swear chicken bits actually fly all over, so beware! You have been warned!

Auntie scooping out the pre-prepared chicken rice balls.

Whie waiting for the chicken rice, we had this dish below, ordered from a stall OUTSIDE the shop.

Don't know what it's called, had little fishballs, pineapple bits and other fried-ty stuff in a sauce. Nice!

The chilli sauce has to be good, or else you will not get the complete chicken rice ball experience.

The chicken rice balls! FYI, we ordered 40 at first, but added another 20 later on. Satisfying our gluttony never tasted so good.

Half a chicken for 4 people.

This is how I eat it:

Chilli sauce, 'kicap pekat' (thick soya sauce), rice balls and gravy from the chicken all-in-one.

Excuse the hurriedly taken photos. We were all too hungry to bother about taking nice photos.

You know, besides the great tasting food we get and great people we meet in Malacca, the next best thing about eating out is the price. For a KL girl like myself, I love getting a 'heart attack' when it is time to pay. 'Heart attack' here in a good way.

Total cost of chicken rice balls meal for 4 people:

60 rice balls
half a chicken
4 drinks

Total : RM 20.20

Bloody hell. It cost roughly 4 freaking GBP. OMFG. Told you eating out in Malacca is dead affordable.

NEXT UP:

Cendol, the old-school way.

A heartfelt letter to ah ling's blog.

2010-05-08T23:06:00.004+08:00

I am so sorry that I have been ignoring you this week.

It was not my intentions at all. First, I started work on Monday. Besides ~~pretending to be busy~~ finding things to do so that I could keep myself busy, my body is still trying to adjust back to the hectic lifestyle of the rat race after a prolonged (and blissful) absence.

Over the next few days, I increasingly started having more work to do, so I have been having 14 hour days. In 4 inch heels.

Nowadays I feel that all I ever want to do is to physically merge my body with my bed. ~~Mentally and spiritually, I am already one with my bed.~~

So dear blog, do forgive me because my eyes (and I) do get extremely exhausted after a long day of staring at a computer screen, and as we all know, the only way I'll ever be able to communicate with you is to stare at a screen of some kind.

Rest assured, dear blog, that it is not only you which I have been ignoring. You may also feel free to add 'my boyfriend', 'my dog', 'my bed' and of course 'my plants in Plants vs. Zombies' to the list.

Once again, my apologies dear blog.

Lots of luv,
ah ling

I have just signed my freedom away.

2010-04-30T00:49:00.003+08:00

After nearly half a year of not working (and what a great blessedly long period of time it was!), it's time to start ~~slaving~~ working again.

Let's see how it goes.

Pray for me and wish me luck?

P.S: I nearly killed a mofo ~~with shit for brains~~ just now. Which idiot stands in the MIDDLE of a darkened road at night, and chooses to stand in a spot right AFTER a bend? KNNCCBTNSMCPHKL okay!! Luckily that bastard jumped back in time because the partner and I sure as hell didn't see him until it was too late. He damn well nearly got killed. I know this is really bad of me, but after our initial shock (which took us a while to calm down), I couldn't help wishing I had run over his foot. Pffffttttttt.

Not much sunshine about..

2010-04-23T02:04:00.004+08:00

..doing things this way.

I am feeling very tired of many things at the moment, god knows when this feeling will pass.

Sorry, not in a proper frame of mind to blog about random stuff.

I'm addicted.

2010-04-20T02:28:00.002+08:00

To Plants vs. Zombies, that is.

Now all I want to do is water the plants in my Zen Garden and go to people's houzes to eat their brainz.

All from my dear boyfriend and friends *keeps muttering 'I love my friends. I love my friends'*

Boyfriend today on my 'interview shoes' (4 inches of closed-toe torture) - *pointing to my shoes* "I can hear your toes screaming."

Boyfriend in ah Ying's house during Earth Hour (Earth Hour was when ~~kind, environment-caring~~ people were meant to turn off all lights and electrical appliances etc.) - *Him going round her house turning off lights in doorway and lamp* "We have to follow the rules."

Boyfriend today as well watching me put on makeup - "I want to wear mascara too."

And to quote someone "Knocking on the panda's door and asking if it wants to buy insurance" -__-""

Please tell me how much more randomness one can take. FML.

The job-hunting dilemma.

2010-03-26T00:04:00.003+08:00

Okay, so far I have turned down many interviews, a couple of offers (i feel that the amount they offered me is too low), I have a contract sitting in my inbox waiting for my approval, but I consider my job-hunting days to be far from over.

I guess the saying 'a bird in hand is worth more than two in the bush", but I have to ask myself ; Do I really want to be doing something like what I'm being offered, and would I have the strength to last in this industry?

God knows. How-lar liddat?! I have to give my answer too soon as well. Damnit, I need time *SCREAMS*

Doing things the Fomema way..

2010-03-23T12:32:00.003+08:00

Our maid's contract is up for renewal soon, and so I have been put in charge of ensuring she gets her medical checkup done ASAP, if not the contract will not be renewed ~~thus leaving us maid-less, which means I will be the maid~~. If we let the maid agency do this on our behalf, they charge approximately RM 400 wtf.

Anyway so far, I've bought a postal order for RM 190 (it's RM 180 if it's for a male foreign worker). Bank drafts or money orders work fine too, as long as it's made payable to : Fomema Sdn Bhd.

Then you have to download the form found HERE and fill it in before bringing it there. When choosing which doctor to go to (list of doctors can be found in the website above), I'd recommend that you choose a clinic with an x-ray facility if possible, so you don't have to go to 2 different places). Also the front page of the worker's passport, and the entry permit pages has to be photostatted.

Then the boyfriend and I went to Block G in Pusat Bandar Damansara. Please look for the Fomema signboards. We actually went up to the old office in the same block, and was surprised to see it locked up -__-"

There, we handed in the:
1)Form
2)Postal order
3)photostatted copies of passport and entry permit

Today I've already taken my maid to the clinic behind my house for the medical checkup, and so now, we have to wait for the results before being able to proceed.
10 working days, baby. And results are also checkable online.

More on other stuff later, I'm just sleepy now *dozing off*

Jimmy Eat World - Drugs Or Me?

2010-03-03T02:07:00.003+08:00

There's something really nagging me at the back of my mind. I don't really know how to put this into words, but I can tell you that quite honestly, it's bugging the hell out of me.

Those of you close enough to me can roughly guess what I'm getting at (I hope).

I've had enough of this. I've been back not even a month, and yet I find all this depressing. The family in denial to keep sane. The lies. Yes, more drama than you can find on the big-screen nowadays.

This is all,pardon me, fucking bullshit.

Unofficially, it's been more than a year. Heh.

Thank you for the winter,spring,summer and autumns we've spent together.
Thank you for taking care of me all the time.
Thank you for the walks home late at night.
Thank you for putting up with my nonsense.
Thank you for your randomness.

Thank you for your 'supersized' presents (my Valentine's Day card this year is nearly 2 feet high -__-)

And most of all, thank you for your love.

I love you, Mr. Sin!!!!!! *MUAXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX*

Is it the Bad Ass Coffee or the excitement?

2010-02-17T02:10:00.003+08:00

Going to Setiawan (a place in the state of Perak) in a few hours time with the boyfriend for the next few days. Trying to catch some shuteye before leaving but have failed miserably ~~and that's why this entry exists~~. I wonder if this has anything to do with the cup of Jitter Juice @ Bad Ass Coffee which I had in Tropicana City Mall earlier with jamie and Tetek Leong or it is the excitement of going on a road trip?

2010-02-11T19:59:00.005+08:00

Yes, it happens to be mine. I lost my laptop. What a great welcoming home present, innit?

The worst thing is that I have to use the various desktops at home, and since I lost my songs, pictures, documents, this depresses me to no end. (yup, backup all your files please)

So this will be a post again without any pictures at all. *BIG SIGH*

So how's the CNY (or Valentine's Day)preparations coming along then?

Packing done? NO.

FAIL.

Not to mention that the ship was rocking up and down the whole night because of the extremely strong winds and waves while crossing the English Channel earlier on. So much that even though this is the 3rd cruise I've been on, I felt sea sick (I've never been sea sick before this).

That's not all. After getting home I kept feeling myself swaying and feeling dizzy. At first I thought it was only me, but turns out the boyfriend is feeling the same too wtf.

My birthday & the completion of Mission 'Find Chanel Classic Jumbo Flap XL with gold chain'

2010-01-11T20:53:00.015+08:00

Eiffel Tower lit up with various colours.

So this year we went to Paris for the New Year's countdown, were greatly disappointed by the absence of fireworks at the Eiffel Tower (more on that later) and paid a visit to 31, Rue de Cambon.

Yes, the headquarters of fashion house Chanel.

To get this:

Boyfriend also wanted to camwhore with it.

As you see in THIS POST, the paper bags and boxes are slightly different. Lansi-nya -__-"

Oh and if you have to know, this bag is sold for 2010 Euros (calfskin) and if you're thinking of getting one in lambskin, it's only 10 Euros more wtf. So 2020 Euros for the lambskin version.

-------------------------------------------------------

Oh yes, and after Paris it was touchdown in London for my birthday. I got a totally unexpected present (and a stripper as well!! Private joke xD) :

Thank you very muchie darling!! The charms tell a story as well, heheh..

Oh, and had duck rice at Bayswater again. I swear to God, there's something in that duck of theirs...-__-" Service here is WAY better than their other branch in London's Chinatown. And it is not as crowded in Bayswater as compared to the other branch.

Don't like waiting + not enough sleep + tired.

Half a duck (deboned upon request), mixed plate of 'char siew'(honey-roasted pork) and 'siew yoke'(roast pork).

Also had rice, and a pot of tea for two people (both rice & tea = free-flow).

Total damage - GBP 26.00

Yups, a really REALLY low-key birthday this year. Anyway I've been turning 18 years of age 7 times in a row already, hehehe..

2010-01-11T20:40:00.002+08:00

just finished packing one box yesterday night, but how come it looks as if there is still so much stuff left?! *headache*

Also have to figure out which stuff to bring back in my luggage (as the boyfriend said, obviously I'm not going to say "hey, I've got presents for you, but please wait for 2 months when my boxes arrive") for SOME PEOPLE..*ehem ehem*

Anyhow the constantly falling snow and rain is seriously dampening my mood for shopping. I don't feel like leaving the house at all, nether does the boyfriend.

Thank god for online shopping.

Him : Please can I have your Mulberry bag?
Me : Why?
Him : Because I am a brandwhore.

Taken at Park Guell, Barcelona.

Obviously it's me, dressed for a scorching hot day, while hordes of other tourists around are all bundled up in their winter jackets wtf -__-"

I plead my case ; it was damn bloody SCORCHING HOT. Kind of like being back home in Malaysia. The heat could fry eggs (No kidding).

Am trying to do a bit of research before our trip to Egypt tomorrow, and I have been distracted, I'm afraid. Time to kip soon anyway.

Unwrapping post - Chanel Classic Jumbo Flap XL in calfskin.

2009-12-14T20:00:00.010+08:00

How ironic life is. The boyfriend got a call 2 days ago from the Chanel boutique in Manchester saying that the bag he wanted had been reserved for him wtf. And so we went down to Manchester yesterday for a spot of shopping and to pick up my new baby.

Anyway, here it goes:

And look! Finally!!

Hello baby!! <333

The price HAS GONE UP unfortunately, so I no longer paid the amount as mentioned HERE though. Bloody hell. The price for the Chanel Classic Jumbo Flap XL in Calfskin is now GBP 1920.

Thank you dear parents!! =) Bless my mummy for telling me not to walk away empty-handed from the Chanel boutique if I couldn't get this bag. Now the hunt is on for HER Chanel bag instead.

My mummy's advice "Buy one, save RM xxxx. The more you buy, the more you save. So buy more!!" -__-"

P.S: My watch present from the boyfriend also arrived! I <333 it too..Thank you so very much, beebee. *MUAXXXXXXXXXXXX* *Happy happy!*

P.P.S: Prolly the prices of other branded goods have gone up too? Haven't had time to check the LV website yet though...Hmmmmm..

We're back!!

2009-12-11T08:58:00.002+08:00

The expensive lifestyle in Barcelona.

2009-12-09T08:45:00.005+08:00

Not me, but here in Barcelona.
Everything is expensive =/ (So take more photos cos´ that + the memories are free)

Went to Passeig De Gràcia to check out the Chanel Classic Maxi (or the XL) in calfskin and they only had two left, but in Navy and Beige, and they were both selling for 2400 Euros.
In England, IF, only IF you can find the Chanel Classic Maxi in calfskin anywhere (PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!), they´re going for 1790 GBP. Since there were no black ones, and after conversion it would be a lot more feasible for me to look back in the UK or Paris (going there for the year end!!), I left empty-handed =( I WILL GET ONE WITH A GOLD CHAIN AND ONE WITH A SILVER. I DON´T CARE. THEY WILL STILL BE A LOT CHEAPER HERE THAN BACK HOME.

It´s the boyfriend´s birthday today and ZOMG, is he acting spoiled! *bites arm to keep from screaming* I just have to put up with this for one day of the year, he has to do it all the time MUAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA *Supreme evil laugh*

More tomorrow hopefully.

P.S: Went to La Boqueria (probably Barcelona’s best-known market which is situated just off La Ramblas) earlier today and it was CLOSED wtf! How come!?!

P.P.S: We met the most STUPID (unfortunately she was blond) American earlier (This has NOTHING to do with nationalities okay). Seated at the table next to us during dinner, her friends had been chatting with us, asking for directions, and she had been seated there long enough to hear everything, and she asked us if we speak ENGLISH. Er, NO, lady. Obviously we have been speaking Bahasa Malaysia and Mandarin to your friends, didn´t you know that they are fucking trilingual???! KNNCCB.

1) I´m still trying to figure out this Spanish keyboard. Fail. I had to copy and paste a ¨@¨sign (---> this one) to sign into my Facebook.
2) Living in England lulls you into a false sense of security the second you step onto a zebra crossing. Here, it´s pretty much like being back in Kay Elle with motorists trying to mow you down even though you are halfway across the zebra crossing.
3) I fcuking HATE crowds!! Argh!! enough said...
4) I have seen some of the most interesting costumes of people who dress up and then charge you if you take a picture with them (don´t know the word off the top of my head at this moment).
5) 7 Euros (approx. RM 45) for a beer wtf.
6) I am Malaysian! I don´t need a whatever you call it visa to go to most European countries! Don´t assume I´m from China! *Spits*

Back soon, hopefully for more updates. Till then,

I is going to Barcelona tomorrow, so until then, happi looking at ah ling's cleavage and arse.

2009-12-06T07:37:00.005+08:00

Will be there till the 10th. Keep reading though, you never know if I will get a chance to ~~bullshit~~ blog while in Spain! Oh and please keep clicking on Nuffnang ads you see around the blog hehehe..thank you and much kisses.

Oh, and till I'm back here's a picture of my ~~non-existent~~ cleavage (And our uber messy room)...

as well as a picture of my arse.

More pictures from this series can be seen in the boyfriend's facebook photo albums. Go see go see!!

P.S: Kanasai, I haven't finished packing yet *runs around screaming*

My new haircut @ Love Your Hair, Sheffield,

2009-12-04T04:27:00.013+08:00

No, not at Hairkunst, The Curve.

I'm too far away to go there, really.

Decided that my hair was becoming too unmanageable and dry. Besides, after perming my hair way back in March, my hair needed more maintenance and always easily tangles. Not a good idea here, when the wind blows all the time wtf.

Anyway, to have a good idea of how long my hair was, here's a picture.

Looks like the ghost in Ju-on wtf -__-

Taken at Love Your Hair:

Asked the boyfriend to help me take a picture first.

Then started taking them on my own, obviously.

That's one of the sylists walking out for her lunch. I like her hair colour!

I call this Foil Head™ Syndrome.

A close-up of Foil Head™ Syndrome.

Inc[red]ible.

Nice streaks? Or Chau Lala Mui™ Syndrome? And I finally have a shorter fringe than usual, and it's all to one side, finally!

Anyway damage done to my purse - Cut and finish (yes, here they charge for blowdrying after cut -__-") = GBP 15 (fcuking cheap cos' I got a voucher)
Colouring and finish = GBP 65

Total = GBP 80 (Approx. RM 450 after conversion). After nearly 5 hours there, I could feel my arse moulding itself into the chair wtf.

Uh-oh, I just realized I still have to pack for Spain. Shit.

R.I.P my little Sarah Nanako Potato Tancredi ;(

2009-12-03T18:46:00.005+08:00

Some of you may have seen the above written on my Facebook wall..

Goodbye Potato (full name - Sarah Nanako Potato Tancredi - Named after the lady in Prison Break because our hamster was always trying to escape)

We miss you! Hope you're having fun running on that big hamster wheel up in the sky...

Wanna see my pussy lighter?

2009-12-02T03:37:00.003+08:00

Yes, it sounds crude.
Sorry about that.

But unfortunately I'm not joking about this.

BRAND NEW Sigma 70-300mm for Sony/Minolta fit.

2009-12-02T03:16:00.003+08:00

This BRAND NEW lens going for LESS THAN GBP 50??! Less than 50 quid??! LESS THAN RM300 after conversion for Sony/Minolta cameras?!

Seriously. Check out my BFF's
ebay auction HERE. Roughly 2 days to go, people. And I'll vouch for the fact that it is a BRAND NEW IN BOX (BNIB) lens.

Look at the 'World's Worst' E-Fit Sketch.

2009-11-29T21:39:00.003+08:00

Wtf, I could draw better than that ~~while blindfolded and wiping my arse~~.

But you know what is even more astounding?

The fact that it helped in the arrest of the alleged suspect (who obviously claims he is innocent). Poor bastard, whoever he is. I'd hate to look like that too -__-""

HERE to read more about this.

Black hole.

2009-11-29T07:50:00.004+08:00

I mean in one of my molars.
What exactly were you thinking about?!!

KNNCCB, this is what I get for eating loads of chocolate everyday.

If my teeth are not white, then at least my watermark font colour is. Hah! *feels a little bit happier*

Sigh. Should take better care of my teeth, I guess =/

I is going to Spain!!

2009-11-27T01:50:00.003+08:00

I is also going to Egypt and Paris!! *throws confetti and hamster*

Going to be a packed travelling schedule for December. First, we fly off to Barcelona in Spain on the 6th - 10th (celebrating the boyfriend's birthday there), then we head off to Egypt on the 16th - 23rd, then off to Paris on the 31st to usher in the New Year and will be back on the 4th January.

Did you know that Malaysian travellers are allowed stay in Egypt up to 15 days without a visa? I just found that out, btw.

Unwrapping post - Burberry Shimmer Check Tote

2009-11-26T08:23:00.006+08:00

Just to keep it simple and sweet (because I am so tired from being out the whole day), the boyfriend got me a Burberry Shimmer Check Tote, and I got one for my mum.

And say hello to my ~~model wannabe boyfriend~~ new baby!!

Thank you beebee!!

Mum's bag is exactly the same, btw.

Off to bed now, extremely tired-lah.

MIgraine attack!

2009-11-24T21:34:00.002+08:00

Yeah, had one of the worst ever migraine attacks yesterday. Slept at 7 something pm yesterday after taking some paracetamol, woke up at 1am with one side of my head still throbbing, and then forced myself to go sleep again. Then woke at 7 am with the migraine subsiding, then went back to sleep till 11.30 am.

I'm alright now, but I think I slept too much -__-"

Now to concentrate on selling stuff on ebay..

LV Taiga wallet for men.

2009-11-20T07:48:00.006+08:00

Because I am uber bad at keeping secrets from him, I caved.

I gave him 1/3 of his birthday present, er, ~~3 weeks early~~ a little too early to be exact.

The SA helped me gift wrap it without me asking. That's what I call damn good perception, and good customer service =)

The other 1/3 of the present has already been dispatched according to the email Amazon.com sent me (it's a lens for his camera btw), but the dilemma now is, what should the last 1/3 of his present(s) be? Any ideas anyone?

Of Miss Sixty and Diesel's 'tetek' tops.

2009-11-19T06:32:00.006+08:00

Wait, I'll explain about the inclusion of the word 'tetek' in my title above in a little bit. No, I am not trying to be vulgar. (A quick lesson in Bahasa Malaysia for the uncomprehending ; 'tetek' = breasts/boobs/tits etc.)

Finally after looking at Miss Sixty dresses at asos.com, well, I caved and got one.

Yeah!

And now on to the matter of 'tetek', was ~~shopping~~browsing online at a fashion site, and saw this:

Click on photo to enlarge.

seriously WTF?!

2009-11-18T23:54:00.004+08:00

Random pictures, because I can.

2009-11-16T01:30:00.014+08:00

Been looking through my collection of photos taken in 2009, and just wanted to post some.

A while ago Walkers crisps company had a competition where 6 selected crisps flavours were up for the public to decide which one would be added permanently to the already extensive selection of flavours. Seriously, I only liked the taste of the onion-bhaji crisps. The squirrel-flavoured one tasted of wood -__-"

The day I met 'The Rock'.

Okay-lah, at Madame Tussaud's.

On the same day itself I watched the boyfriend ~~'hamsup'~~get 'up close and personal' *ehem* with Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore.

And then Jennifer Aniston.

And then watched in horror as he proceeded to kiss Tom Cruise wtf o_O

First time going all the way to Manchester just for 'dim sum'. I miss these two gals =/

Bei Yi, Subie, me.

I also miss my straight hair. Damnit.

Made my miniature snowman on the 2nd February.

I just realised that we will be leaving for home on this date next year. Boo to mixed feelings =/

Spring time here brought forth the most beautiful cherry blossoms (or sakura) ever. Taken right after I had my tattoo done. The area of ~~mutilated~~ skin was most uncomfortable under the scratchy layers of clothing okay.

No, I'm not in any part of Japan, but in Sheffield.

At Wendy's and Tom's wedding (both of them are my housemates now).

Ling Ling, Diane and I.

Food wise, one of the best ever Chinese weddings I've ever attended. No kidding.

And one of the latest photos taken, at some lake in Scotland.

Omg, I look so short next to him wtf *emo*

Okay, this could take me all day, so I'm just going to ~~abruptly~~ stop here.

Have a good week ahead.

xoxo,
ah ling

P.S: Did I mention that we will be going to Paris for the 2010 New Year countdown this year? *grins*

I've got a new present!

2009-11-10T20:12:00.002+08:00

Do the words Maurice Lacroix mean anything to you?? hurhurhur...

Thank you darling!! *MUAXMUAXMUAXbigkisses*

Will ~~steal~~take pictures off the internet of it later, since it hasn't arrived yet...

Funeral - To remind us that life is too short.

2009-11-07T04:13:00.002+08:00

The late Yasmin Ahmad's videos never fail to elicit though-provoking responses. And rightly so, as you will see in the latest one 'Funeral'.

Life is indeed too short for time-wasting conflicts.

Goodbye, working life in the UK.

2009-11-05T02:26:00.001+08:00

I've quit my job.
Yes, my year-old job in the UK.
Now, it's time to pack up, and start planning where we wish to travel. Tentative travel plans mean that the boyfriend and I are most probably spending Christmas in Holland, and ushering in the New Year in Paris.

More later.

Gucci, Prada, Fendi....

2009-11-03T18:13:00.004+08:00

and also visited Chanel, Dior, Ferragammo, Celine, Burberry, D&G and Louis Vuitton while we were down in London.

1) Chanel in Selfridges in London only stock the Jumbo Flap in Pink or Light Green (this season's colours). Black is completely sold out, so what I might do is go down to the one in Selfridges Manchester to ask about ordering them, or to check when we go down to Paris. The search begins.

2) Currently contemplating between a Dior or LV ladies purse to replace my existing Burberry one.

3) Bought a pair of Gucci shades to add to my sunglasses collection lol. Looking for one last pair of Dior ones before we go back home.

4) Didn't know there's a Diana & Dodi Al-Fayed memorial in Harrods (There is a diamond-encrusted ring displayed in glass as well, going to find out later who's ring that was). All those times we've been there, we didn't realize that -__-"

5) Met the most friendly SA in Louis Vuitton ever in Harrods. Nice to know he's more 'approachable' as compared to many SAs in designer counters/boutiques.

6) Went for Four Seasons duck rice in Bayswater and in the one in Chinatown. Can I say that even though they are under the same company, the one in Bayswater (the last time I've been there was 2 years ago) wins hands down as the duck tastes a lot better and the service there too is a while lot better. Price wise the dishes in Bayswater are 30 pence cheaper.

For 4 of us, we ordered a whole duck, and a plate of charsiew (honey-roasted pork), had rice and tea. Price came to GBP 41.50, which is quite reasonable (if you do NOT convert).

More random ramblings later. Got to get to work soon.

To the person

2009-11-03T18:09:00.004+08:00

searching Yahoo! for 'Winkert Khut', and visiting my blog as a result of the search, WTF?!?

-___-""

I smell the Gucci.

2009-10-24T19:47:00.001+08:00

And the D&G. And the Louis Vuitton. And Anya Hindmarch. And god knows how many other brands. Will be going down to London tomorrow for the next 3 days.

Blog more when I'm back.

More shoes haul..

2009-10-21T07:33:00.005+08:00

Got another pair of Ted Baker 'Jaya' heels, this time in UK size 4 in Grey for my mum..

A close up look at the pattern on the heels which I absolutely adore:

And finally got myself a pair of patent Birkenstocks Gizeh in purple.

I made sushi today! With the proper Japanese rice and sushi vinegar and everything! Pictures coming soon!!

Cafe Masala - Indian takeaway in Sheffield

2009-10-21T06:26:00.003+08:00

Had an Indian takeaway for dinner tonite as the boyfriend and I were too lazy and couldn't be quite arsed to cook for dinner ~~as we are both lazy bastards lol~~.

Went online to Hungry House and Just-Eat to look up the takeaways and menus listed there. Finally decided to order online from Cafe Masala, and this is what we had:

1) Lamb Vindaloo (cooked with very hot spices, potato and lemon)@ GBP 4.45
2) Tandoori Butter Chicken (cooked in a rich creamy and mild sauce, garnished with butter) @ GBP 5.50
3) 2 lamb Biryanis - one for each of us (all biryani dishes are prepared with rice and are served with vegetable curry) @ GBP 4.95 each
4) Garlic naan @ GBP 1.80
5) FREE POPADOMS lol. (HUGE HUGE ONES AS WELL)

The food was lovely. Loads of lamb in the biryani, and the curries were quite nice as well.

Total cost of eating in and watching G-Force and Public Enemies = GBP 21.65

That's approximately RM 121. You lucky Malaysians back home get all the nice food back home for a fraction of that price. Blek.

P.S: Potato the Hamster loved the popadoms too. It's on a junk food binge nowadays wtf.

New shoes haul for the month..

2009-10-15T05:46:00.008+08:00

Damn, I love shoes.

~~*Ignores the boyfriend asking me how many pairs of legs I have wtf*~~

1) Ted Baker

Love the detail on the heels..

2) Ted Baker

Decided that I need a pair of shoes which do not come with 5 inch heels, so opted for this pair above.

3) Steve Madden

My first ever pair of Steve Maddens! The boyfriend helped me select this pair. Super high heels okay, am a bit worried that I might break my ankles wearing this *knock on wood*

And that's it so far...stop me shopping online please, it's an addiction i'm finding difficult to say "Tak Nak" (no) to wtf.

Heart of Asia - Hard Trance Bootlegs 2008

2009-10-15T02:37:00.005+08:00

Was just clicking on random music videos on Youtube, when I came across this video:

Check out the girl getting tattooed in traditional Japanese style also known as 'irezumi' or 'horimono' which infuses bold colours.

But anyway, after that video, I found a remix which also appears on Hard Trance Bootlegs 2008 CD by Masif DJs. Which led me to google more info about the album, and I bought it from Amazon.co.uk. Lol.

Sigh...Yam feeling like getting another tattoo now, wistful thinking, wistful thinking ah ling....

P.S: Dreamt last nite that I was back in Malaysia, and was out with someone (Mum? The boyfriend? Can't remember who now) at a food court, and EVERYONE was bloody staring at my back, and I got so 'tulan' (pissed off) I purposely tied my hair back so they could have a better look -___-"

The honesty shown by the people in Britain..

2009-10-09T03:03:00.006+08:00

..is bloody overwhelming.

Went to York last week on the boyfriend's and my day off with our intention to get my mum's birthday present (btw, got it, a Burberry purse, it has just been sent back by DHL in order for her to open it before she flies off to Geneva).

Got her the long wallet in the Burberry Haymarket Woven design, not the clutch. Could only find the picture of the clutch online and not the wallet. More fool me for not taking any photos of it.

Anyway, the boyfriend bought some Body Shop stuff (wtf i know, and unthinkable lol but some of the items were for me), I shopped at Marks and Spencers and Dyberg Kern and we both got some stuff from Polo Ralph Lauren.

To cut the long story short, he accidentally left the bag containing my Marks and Spencers, Dyberg Kern and Body Shop (all in one bag for easier lugging around) in the bus, and we only realized about it when just boarding the train to get back to Sheffield.

~~Poor bastard, I was in a really foul mood all the 50 minutes journey back home. There was 100 quid worth of shopping there, do you really blame me? -___-"~~

The very next day he went all the way back to York to try to hunt the stuff down in the hope someone would have passed it on to the Lost and Found, and what do you know, someone really had turned in the bag containing EVERY DAMN THING. NOTHING WAS TAKEN AT ALL.

(I'm wondering if back home you'd even see the plastic bags again at all).

So to the person who turned in our shopping to the Lost and Found, thank you very much. Your honesty is much appreciated.

xoxo,
ah ling

P.S: Next time we go shopping he's carrying his own stuff and me, mine, so if we lose anything we can only blame ourselves wtf.

He has a twisted sense of humour...(Photos included)

2009-09-28T18:20:00.011+08:00

..but I love him so.

That twisted streak in him rears is evident in photos captured during our Scotland trip like the one where...

he grabbed/covered my mouth outside the Dewars whisky distillery.

And how about the time he took pictures of..

..sheep dip (or shite.Poo.Defecate.Excremement wtf)

Or making me pretend that my hand is a train.

Btw, we missed the train in the background. Apparently it only runs once a day, and we missed it =( The train in the background appears in one of the Harry Potter films apparently (don't ask me which one, I don't like Harry Potter but am a bit disappointed we didn't get to see it).

He even likes to take pictures of me sneezing.

And taking the piss out of tourist attractions is loads of fun as well for ushim wtf.

But wtf, catching me when I'm literally with my pants down?!

Priceless.

PSP 3000 - Piano Black + Peanut Batman game

2009-09-09T06:50:00.008+08:00

Got kind of sick of the boyfriend's constant ~~unhealthy~~ attachment to his PSP that when we were in a shopping mall in Glasgow, and wandered into a GAME shop and saw that PSP consoles were going for quite good prices. And so I caved....

Logitech case for this baby. Looks a lot nicer than beebee's case, but I'd have to say that his PSP case is a lot more functional as there is space to keep game discs in it.Pffffft.

My console came bundled with a Lego Batman game (hence the Peanut moniker I'm giving it; don't believe me? Go see what little yellow Lego Men look like). The new PSP is due to be released soon in October if I'm not mistaken, but at the estimated launch price, I'd much rather pay a bit more money and get an Xbox 360 or the new PS3 Slim.

And then just before typing this post I got bored, and made our PSPs *ehem*

Sorry beebee, too bad you're asleep and by the time you see this it will be too late hurhurhur.

I'm aware the Scotland trip pictures are still due, but I've just had BOTH my parents add me on Facebook wtf and I'm kinda traumatized at this point -___-

2009-09-03T05:12:00.001+08:00

..no pictures YET.

Still too lazy to take them from the boyfriend's camera as we're packing stuff to be shipped back. Can I say our room looks like a shit hole. A horrendously messy shit hole to be precise -__-""

Part of Your World Contest 2007 - The 'Male' Ariel

2009-08-17T05:20:00.002+08:00

Yeah, apparently this contest was over 2 years ago -__-
But the reason why I'm blogging about it now is because of the guy singing below. Close your eyes and you'll hear Ariel the mermaid singing, open your eyes and you see the guy below singing..

Turning him into a brandwhore / Why I buy (authentic!) branded handbags.

2009-08-10T03:19:00.006+08:00

It's really not my fault. Promise. *Blinks big innocent eyes*

--------------------------------

But anyway, putting blame away, I'd like to say that I've added a few new 'family members' to my little bag collection.

Before introducing them, well, I'd like to say the reason why I buy authentic bags is because ages ago when I was 15 or 16 years old or so (seems like ages ago anyway wtf), I could only afford to buy handbags (from Jusco [a departmental store]) which were around RM10 - RM 20 (around 2-3 GBP). And back then I promised myself that next time in my life (not my next life okay!!) , if I could, I will buy designer handbags.

So that's what I'm doing ; fulfilling a ~~expensive~~ promise to myself.

It started off with Nine West (extremely cute bags, they're still waiting for me back home in very careful storage). Then I moved on to Coach (lovely, am still using my Lunch Tote off and on, 2 of my ipods' cases are Coach as well, and my makeup bag is as well).

Then my parents got me my LV Speedy in Damier Azur. And then my mum decided to 'immortalize' my darling Candy a.k.a.my dad's unofficial "girlfriend" by putting her picture on Anya Hindmarch's Be a Bag - The Rio.

After coming here to the UK, I caved and bought my superbly huge-able-to-keep-ohsomuchjunk Prada Shopper bag and then my much beloved and prized Balenciaga First.

And I'm proud to say that finally, I've gotten a Gucci bag & a pretty much huge-ass Mulberry canvas one (which I will be using for light travelling or hand luggage). Makes me miss my Marc Jacobs Pan Am bag.

Need.To.Add.A.Chanel.To.Collection.

Yeah, was pretty much supposed to 'inherit' my mum's vintage Jumbo flap in Black with gold chains (30+ years old!), but the fucking bastard younger brother of mine has stolen it apparently. Come to think about it, God knows if whatever bags I didn't put away in storage (namely the Speedy and a few others; can't remember them all) are still around. Sigh.

Anyway, to cut my grandmother story short, I had fun looking back at my previous unwrapping posts. Just click on all the links provided to see them if you wish =)

Goodbye to my G1 Google phone soon..

2009-07-14T17:56:00.002+08:00

Beebee's suggestion:

1) Unlock the phone
2) Ask a friend's help to bring it back to Malaysia and give it to my father
3) Get me a new phone (Blackberry!)

So far:

1) He's taken the phone to be unlocked

and now am waiting for our friend to help me bring it back home.
And then choose my new phone? Lol..

I want a Blackberry!! Hurhurhurhur...

Of Evisu Genes and more...

2009-07-12T04:52:00.005+08:00

In the last 7 days, I have bought 7 pairs of Evisu Genes (Yes, they are spelled 'Genes' instead of 'Jeans' wtf). That works out to buying a pair a day on average wtf.

Click HERE to see one of the designs I bought or click HERE for Evisu's official site.

No, they are not all for me (just one pair is). And NO, no fakes as well thank you very much.

Items bought in the past few days include Fendi sunglasses and Fred Perry polo-t's. Oh, and quite a few dresses from Warehouse (Tank yew bee!! ^_^)

At the rate I'm spending money this month, well, looks like I will have to eat ~~British~~ sand for the rest of the month ~~and we are not even half way through yet sob sob~~.

Let's just say I've 'pumped' in roughly 700 pounds (Beebee if you're reading this don't kill me pls!) back into the economy here lol.

Sakit hati lah. Purse I lagi sakit.

Onto other matters, Adam visited me!! Hooray! Thanks for coming down to Sheffield sayang *HUGS*

Bits and pieces of my world lately..

2009-07-03T04:39:00.006+08:00

..as shown by a collection of random pictures of sorts.

At my colleague's church wedding ceremony.

Wedding car used in aforementioned wedding.

Attended the party at night as well. English parties for weddings are normally held at pubs! I didn't know that =)

Damn, I felt so short there. That's what I get for not wearing high heels =/

...To be continued...

Blogger is really really slow today, and it'd doing my head in, just trying to upload a picture 5 times in a row without any success..

Aku punya visa sudah okay! (My visa is done!)

2009-06-20T06:50:00.004+08:00

Hooray for that!! Exactly one month to the dot since the UK Border Agency received my passport, my visa has now been extended!

Went to Bradford (2hours away from Sheffield by bus) last Wednesday for the court hearing regarding his visa application, (acted as an impromptu translator as well wtf) and it was over in less than 3 minutes, really..The thing is, the other half is now waiting for them to finish processing his =.=

Yes, I have been ignoring this blog.
Yes, I'm still alive and well.
No, I didn't run away with a band of traveling, dread-locked hobos -__-

Was supposed to go to Thorpe Park (Saw ride!!) a couple of weeks ago, but thanks to the horrible weather, we had to cancel that outing.

Tomorrow, we are going to Alton Towers instead!! *Stands up and claps excitedly*

P.S: Watched Star Trek! Wtf, I nearly fell asleep okay...

The internet connection is shite...
