Brisbane Trip Part#1

A while back in July, Mom and I took a trip down to Brisbane , Australia to see what that brother of mine has been up to. Rumours were that he was a syndicate leader for trafficking humans, others say he was turning gay and wanted to be the hottest asian drag queen.

Haha ok. sorry, all of the above aren't true. Brian is still Brian, just in a whole new different, very cold environment! I miss my brother, him being so far away makes me feel like I don't really have a tai-ko these days. But Brian's gonna graduated next year and hopefully he comes back home!

Anyways, here are some pictures I took whilst I was shopping in Queensbay Mall, Brisbane.

In Brisbane, you can walk everywhere and anywhere! Good for me, I love walking!!

And the air is so sweet and fresh!

The transportation system is very efficient as well. With buses available every 5-10 minutes, you hardly have to watse much time waiting for the bus! (unlike the RapidKLs here in Malaysia)

Their buses have respective stations and places to stop so they don't disrupt traffic conditions. Which is good because the buses and taxis in Malaysia always simply stop anywhere they want to, causing slow-ups and adding to jams during peak hours!

Anyhoo, look at all the candy I found!!!

They have such weird and unique candies, it's no wonder children go trick-or-treating during HAlloween! In Malaysia, you'd probably get Fizzy Colas and Mentos if you trick-or-treat, so might as well buy from Pasar Malam youself! haha MONSTER GOBSTOPPER!!!! I didn't get it because as interesting as it looks, I wouldn't know how to finish it all by me-self!

SPOOKY EYS and some strawberry OOZER! ooooooh

This is the bridge my brother crosses everyday to get to QUT (Queensland University of Technology) It's real nice walking across it with the cool wind blowing at your face! And right where the bridge ends lays an absolutely beautiful botanical garden! When I say botanic, it really is botanic ok! Got ancient giant trees (the kind in Alice in Wonderland!) and huge birds walking around.

Mom's cooking!!! Loving the curry! Australian food bores me to death. I need spicy hot curry!

At a morning market! They have huge sausages everywhere! But it's pretty oily though. (nothing new, since Msia has plenty of oily stuff)

Strawberries there are real cheap and mega sweeeeet! I can't remember how many boxes I had! haha

Feeding a kangaroo.

There are two main types of kangaroos. This, and the red kangaroo.(no it isn't red in colour, i have no idea why it's called red kangaroo) But let me warn you, red kangaroos bite!! and they have really lan si faces! so don't bother feeding them! (yes,i got bitten by a red kangaroo! :( bummer, magical moment destroyed there)

And I didn't manage to find a kangaroo big enough so I could hop into ints pouch and be whisked away in kangaroo frenzy.

too bad.

oooh! I had a roo burger and it was awesome! But I only like Purple Gorillaz's burgers- big, healthy and juicy with lots of ingredients.

yummm.

Hey all!

Just got back from College Camp 09.

Am really tired. This morning, I went to sleep with back-aches and woke up with knee pains.

Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! It is still hurting now. I feel so old. A young person like me should not have back-aches and knee pains!

Anyways, it's law classes tommorrow and I need to prepare.

I had a great fun time at camp!

Was the assistant games group leader for CIA and we got 4th placing out of 12 teams! Yay!

Well, camp's over for now and it's back to life. I've got loads to do.

It was a great time of refreshing and reflection at camp. (no not that it was quiet but it was a good time away from everything else la)

So, I'm starting my Japanese Intermediate 2 classes this coming wed and Skytrex is up this Sat!

Until then, toodles!

busy thinking...

I've been thinking of taking the JLPT exams-

The Nihongo Nouryoku Shiken, or Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT), is a widely-recognized test certifying the taker's Japanese language ability.

Should I? I want to! Yes, I've been attending Japanese language classes for the past one month at ICLS, InterCultural Language School at Damansara Uptown. And it's been awesome!!

I mean, eventhough classes can be tiring and mentally draining at times, (probably cause its 4 hours of hard concentration work, speaking and application skills.) its actually enjoyable and interesting. And I find myself wanting to learn more about the language and the culture.

My course was an intensive one that covers 3 levels -Beginners 1, Beginners 2 and Intermediate 1 which I did in 25 days (5 weeks). Well, thats all over now that I just graduated on friday with a pretty cert that came with a grade A. yay!!!

I'm hoping my dad lets me continue with Intermediate 2. My plan is to study for the JLPT in December. Taking Level 4 JLPT means I would have to learn 100 kanji characters though.

Funny that I am learning chinese characters thought Japanese! But oh well!

Btw I am taking Mandarin classes too at ILCS. But it's pretty boring. :( Why isn't mandarin interesting? hmmmph

College starts next week! I'm actually looking forward to Japanese classes more than law classes!

aha!

Anyhow, it feels great being able to study. At least I won't feel so dumb anymore.

Here's a great link to help with JLPT preparations :

Preparing for theJapanese Language Proficiency Test

Today was not funny

I was on my way to 1utama to catch GI Joe when all of a sudden, without any warning, the slight pain in my tummy turned into excruciating agony. I cursed the pain and told it to go away. But to no avail, since I ended up in the public toilet.

I was in utmost confusion prior to having my period, and could not bring myself to fathom what was going on. First the knots in my tummy decided to tighten up impromptu and kill me. But at the same time, I felt a strong urge to release my bowels. So I did, but the shit didn't want to come out! Grrr. But at the same time, I suddenly had a sick feeling in my gut and wanted to vomit. And the cramp only fought harder to compete for my attention.

That was it, I couldn't numb myself and try to act strong anymore. In the throes of nearing-death, I let out a cry of distress. What kind of person can handle stomach cramps, constipation, dehydration, and the sick vomit-ty feeling at the same time?

All I could think of was myself at that time. All I wanted to do was to go home, eventhough my mom already bought us tickets for the movie. I coudn't care lest with the abominable pain nagging in me.

At that fleeting moment...

I thought how horrible labour pain was and that I didn't want to put myself through all that.

I wondered how wounded soldiers at war could care for the lives of their fellow comrades when they themselves are in agonizing pain.

I wondered if high-powered CEO women had to take leave when the suffer severe cramps, and miss important business meetings.

And I foolishly thought death would be an easy way out.

The things you think about when you're in pain...

I cried out to God to pause whatever pain or shit or vomit that was going to come out until I got home. Thank you God!

Mom was of great aid despite my loud wailing- giving me a heated-pillow, painkillers and warm water. The heat from the thick padding numbed the cramps. At ease, I closed my eyes and sat on the toilet until I almost fell asleep. (Yes, that's how long I sat there!)

What a horribly horrible episode of my life! It's the first time this has happened. I don't usually get severe cramps, just slight ones that I ignore until it subsidizes. I learnt a new word today: Dysmenorrhea- painful menstruation. I never thought it would happen to me cause my usual symtoms are lethargy and crying spells. ( better to be emotionally affected than to have severe physical pains!)

Why am I blogging about this? Well, this is a pivotal experience in my bloody life. I realise how ignorant I am to my own body; I know so little about how my hormones or my lifestyle can affect my body when its that time of the month. Most girls usually just accept it as it comes and goes.

But I've decided, enough is enough! I am going to look after my body and make sure I eat the right things so that in the next 28 days, there will be no PMS symtoms to take charge of my body. I will not let some severe cramp ruin my day! I am going to fight against the mentality of passively accepting cirmcumstances I should never accept. ( no of course I'm going to bleed, but I'm going to control the symtoms that come before and during the bleeding.)

Women should empower themselves with the right knowlegde and attitude to free themselves of this bondage.

Haha.

So begins my war with PMS.

I will make sure I win!

Young Things at my Place

or at my crib, as Jaclyn calls it! aha

Never in the longest time have I had soooo many young things all gathered in my house at the same time!!!!!

I say young things because their IC probably carries a birthdate year far from mine, and their raging hormones are about as young as the are. aha
TO say that I didn't feel the least old would be lying. I was like the oldest girl among all the girls there. It didn't help that I was the host cause I had to run around making sure the food was ready and etc. But I had a great time hosting these girls!! And being with such young sweet things did bring out the kid in me! aha

Ok, maybe they weren't all sweet. Nooo some,ok maybe not some, most of the are pretty noisy creatures! I learnt after the paintball fight that they can be pretty aggresive and energetic too!! It s like they never seen water balloons before! aha

Ok so here's a rough account of how the slumber party went:

We were supposed to start at 12pm but the girls are typical Malaysians...so we started at about 145pm? i think.
Theme is LOVE.

Once all the girls came, we started on games!!! If you're cute like me, you get to be a Squirrel and run away to the shelter of Trees when the Hunter comes! That's the game we played la.

We decided to give ourselves titles as well, with the condition that it has to start with the same alphabet as your name!
Then there was Anti-social Amy, Entertaining Eunice, Jiggly Junee, Most-awesome Melissa (cheating wan), Pretty Phebe, Jumping Jedida, Exciting Eugenia, Doodle Daphne(ryhmes with noodle), Terrific Tiffany, Happy Huei Minn, and ? Bernice ? haha i forgot

oh and Gorgeous Gloria of course.

Instead of the typical girls-baking session, I turned it into a Kuih-making session.
How much more local can you get right?
:)
We made Abok-Abok (sago-gula melaka wrapped in banan leaf), Kuih Keria (mini sugared donuts) and Lepat Pisang.
Mashed up bananas and tapiocas and chunks of gula melaka.
Girls like Bernice and Melissa got to whip out their muscles!! haha
I absolutely love kuih btw so it was a big treat to be able to make plenty and eat plenty of it!!
Yummm

Then it was Treasure Hunting around my entire neighbourhood. Girl's hands and legs were tied up to each other in groups of three.
Team blue, yellow and red.

Wet wet purple water baloons. The girls unleashed their fury upon one another with love from water baloons. so so loving...

After which we terminated our hunger with Domino's Pizza and drank up SeaMasters!
hahaha

We then joined the HF and sang to a little Praise and Worship.
bath bath clean clean.
Mean Girls! (because the girls can't get enough of mean)
Jaclyn and Melissa had to leave. :( all the best in exams!
Then I enticed everyone into an intellectual game of numbers and mercifully punished the blur with pretty fashionable items to wear!
Ask Amy, she had a pretty great makeover! (cool sunglasses with a shower cap in her oversized MU t-shirt!!!) :)
*Tiffany has pictures!
Tiffany and Huei Minn had to leave.
Then the girls called for an urgent Midnight Ice-cream meeting. So I made sure everyone was fattened-up with chocolate,yam and vanilla ice-creams!
muahahahaha
Had a Love-note writing sessions in which we all wrote a Love Note. The Love Notes were put into a bag to be exchanged the next morning!
After which, I decided to cheer them up with some Bring It On part4.
Watched all the way till 230am.
Cheered until I fell asleep.haha
All 9 of the girls managed to fit into the room somehow.
Me? I retreated to the comforts of my own bed! ahaha

Next morning...
Wakey wakey brush brush.
Fluffy bunny pancakes(Gloria's once-in-a-lifetime specialty) with ice cream(again) and Fresh Toast(courtesy of Eugenia and JEdida) and Milo Ice with icecream(again) for breakfast!

Girls decided to walk to the park and play. so we went on the swings and see-saw and they made me use the tube slide!!! *I cannot slide in it ok. more like pushing my way out tot he bottom of the slide!

Watched Star Dust and the girls left onebyone...

it think was somewhat tiring hosting a slumber party because after it all ended, I just wanted to sleep! aha
But I had fun!
Hope you girls did too!!

Next up, Paintball and sunway lagoon!! :)

What a Bummer!!!

When i say 'bum', what do you think of?

For the avid shopper, it means more to shop for B.U.Ms

For the sexually obnoxious pervert, a clear image of a two-cheeked flesh with a line in the middle may appear.

For the random dreamer, perhaps a baboon's butt?

or the for the hopelessly romantic, a baboon turns into a charming price when you kiss its bum!

(aha I'm sure most of you are thinking of the dumb baboon in one of CArtoon Network's indispensable cartoons -'I am Weasel'

OR

if you're bumming around like me,

you know it somehow either categorises you or fits into your current activties these days.

These days,

when people ask me what I'm doing,

I say, 'I'm studying...the art of bumming!'

which is true...

I really am studying.

Speaking of which I'm already at chapter 2:

Learning how to draw a Bum.

!!!!

Now what bum were you thinking of?

I was learning how to draw myself of course!!

'Bum' is a rather ambigous word, don't you think?

Jerica, Gloria, The Crimson Knight-Mark Poh and Su Yin

Paroimia was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me! Never have I seen so much talent and hardwork all in one place-drawn to the center of God's love and grace. For now, I'm glad it's over; fell sick on the last day of performance so it's a good thing that I get to rest! (am getting better) But I'm definately gonna miss all the friendly faces, the bonding sessions, the funny moments back-stage, posing for millions of pictures, and the andrenalin rush I get whenever we rush out to do the Red Blood Army dance!

A big thank you to everyone who helped out for PAROIMIA! To the ushers, props management team, lightings team, actors, dancers, make-up artists, follow-up team, producers, each of you played a part in making PAROIMIA a success.

And the biggest thank you goes to God, for giving us all the wonderful privilege to be part of something so huge and live-changing!

For most of us, it's only the beginning of greater things to come! I'm excited! :)

Introducing the main characters...

You don't want to miss out on this one!

Come watch PAROIMIA

The reason why I've been away from the blogging atmosphere is simply because I have way better things to do.

Such as, practising for the long-awaited, upcoming production extravaganza,

PAROIMIA- The Tale of Colours!

Once upon a time, a prince was born in the Golden City.

His name was Prince Elyon.
That same day, the commander of the Golden Army, Kieron, led a rebellion against the King and stole away the citizens.
It had been long foretold that a day like that would come, when a savior would be needed. He would have to die in exchange for the citizens' freedom.
His blood for theirs.
Prince Elyon was to be that savior.
Will he be able to wipe the darkness of Kieron out?
Will the people ever be free from the clutches of Kieron?
Come and watch Paroimia.

Let the colors whisk you away to the land where the Golden Command upholds justice...the Dark Legion threatens peace & harmony.
Is there hope for the imprisoned Grey Doldrums?
Can the courageous Blood Army bring restoration?

17th April (Friday)
18th April (Saturday)
24th April (Friday)
25th April (Saturday)
The story will unfold from
8pm to 10pm
at the Main Sanctuary of FGA KL.



Definitely not to be missed!!!! :)
Worth yout time and effort.
Admission is free.
I am dancing somemore!
*fuiyooh
Indeed, the whole world should come see!
haha

See you there aligators!

Oh, the high school years...

I use to have really low self-esteem. Did you know that?

So insecure and inconfident was I that I couldn't even bring myself to talk to the males species, especially the higher and hotter of the lot. ( I can imagine you gawking with your mouth hanging and your eyes wide open.) 'What? Really ar?' you say. A lot of people I meet now seem to have a huge impression that I've had had a lot of flings with guys in the past.

Truth is, I was a really shy creature.

While the girls my age then were playfully batting their pretty eyelashes and flinging thier long lucious hair at admiring boys, I cast myself along the sidelines-choosing to admire from afar than to confront the intimidating); simply because I was overly self-conscious and too shy to do anything about boys.

Back then , speaking in front of a crowd would send me hyperventilating all the way to Tinbuktu. Performing an act or a dance in front of a large audience would drive my nervous and excretory system into a state of anxiety and confusion; instead of my brain reacting to the 'public' stimuli, my urinary bladder and bowels were getting signals to release all urinary and shitty content. (which explains my ridiculous amount of visits to the bathroom before a performance; and sometimes, during a performance)

My psychology book says that self-esteem is at its lowest ebb during the high school years; which to a great extent, I believe is true. Being thirteen and being in secondary school for the first time doesn't aid much in boosting the self-esteem, unless of course you already have something strong to identify yourself with-like athletic sports, scouting skills, a great singing-voice, graceful dancing ability, or all you really need is to possess extremely charming and physically beautiful traits.(that's where you people get esteem from public attention) Undergoing psychological-bodily changes in a sudden great intensity sends us into a state of bewilderment and confusion, and raging hormones don't help either. (one classic example would be my cousin sister running up to her mom in panic, asking 'eeeehhh is something wrong with me... why got so much hair grow there one?')

So, teenagers at this point are pretty much left alone to search for their placing in their school and the society, basically, trying to find out who they are in this large, big world- what their very own identity is. Frankly speaking, it's not an easy thing to do at the age where so many new experiences are being thrown at you. I had a hard time finding out who I was, who I could grow to be, and of what stature would I stand among my peers.

If you ask me, it's a time of our lives where the wrong choice could lead to possible disaster. Being young means being naive and easily-influenced; and if you didn't know any better, you could end up selling your identity at the wrong place. If I hadn't searched for my identity in the right places then, I wouldn't be the person I am today. I probably would be still very uptight and insecure about everything and anything; no, i do not think that I would have done drugs or cigarettes or amassing numbers of boyfriends; I would probably end up in the never-ending pursuit for power and position, and I would be a really mean sister, and rebellious in every way.
I probably wouldn't care less if you came asking me to teach you additional mathematics; so long as I could crush and beat you to getting a higher score, that would give me a sense a security. (a rather false one,don't you think?)

It scares me to even think what I could possibly become if not for Jesus. Seriously, I owe it all to Jesus for all that I am today. It is in Him that I found a great sense of security, it is in His overwhelming grace and unconditional love for me that I found my true identity. And I am eternally grateful. :)

But those were the high-school years...now, being in college and pursuing a lifetime degree and career is a totally different thing. I just thank God that I'm not stuggling with much insecurity and an identity-crisis right now. But would you say that we deal with different levels of security and identities at each stage of life? Hmm, maybe so. We do have different wants and needs at each stage. Oh wells.

I think to some extent, I am still a shy person.

*shies away*

haha

I really have to go study.

I am a Barney Grumble

Here's a great personality test I did in my Psychology Class!!

The SIMPSONS Personality Test!

I never expected myself to be ...Barney Grumble! seriously, of all people! but it so matches who i am, i think.

So, according to http://www.mypersonality.info/personality-types/enfp/ , I am
Extroverted-Feeling-Intuition-Perceiving-based.

"They can't bear to miss out on what is going on around them; they must experience, first hand, all the significant social events that affect our lives."
- The Portrait of the Champion Idealist (Keirsey)

"ENFPs are warm, enthusiastic people, typically very bright and full of potential. They live in the world of possibilities, and can become very passionate and excited about things. Their enthusiasm lends them the ability to inspire and motivate others, more so than we see in other types. They can talk their way in or out of anything. They love life, seeing it as a special gift, and strive to make the most out of it."
- Portrait of an ENFP (The Personality Page)

"Friends are what life is about to ENFPs, moreso even than the other NFs. They hold up their end of the relationship, sometimes being victimized by less caring individuals. ENFPs are energized by being around people. Some have real difficulty being alone, especially on a regular basis."
- ENFP Profile (TypeLogic)

"outgoing, social, disorganized, easily talked into doing silly things, spontaneous, wild and crazy, acts without thinking..."
- ENFP Jung Type Descriptions (similarminds.com)

"ENFPs are energetic and enthusiastic leaders who are likely to take charge when a new endeavor needs a visionary spokesperson. ENFPs are values-oriented people who become champions of causes and services relating to human needs and dreams. Their leadership style is one of soliciting and recognizing others' contributions and of evaluating the personal needs of their followers. ENFPs are often charismatic leaders who are able to help people see the possibilities beyond themselves and their current realities. They function as catalysts."
- ENFP - The Visionary (Lifexplore)

"Ranked 1st of all 16 types in using social and emotional coping resources and 2nd in using cognitive resources. "

I seriously laughed when i read the red part! haha yes, i can do silly things!

Life's Uncertainties

I think each of us will reach a point in our lives where we will face a great deal of uncertainty of the future; a pivotal time of our lives where we are at the crossroads, trying to plant our feet in the direction of the right and best path.

But how do we know which one to take? For some people, it’s as clear as crystal-they’ve found their vocation in life; they know exactly what they love and want. (These are usually the most obvious favourites- lawyer, doctor, dentist, accountant…) But for most people, (by most I am referring the larger smattering of people that I know) they are still pondering, wondering, worrying about the next step to take in life.

Everything is uncertain, confusing even, to think about. There is no clear ringing answer, no sense of assurance, no sight of vision and clarity, no peace of mind and heart. Well, actually most of my friends are still pretty laid-back about their future, or blur to say the least. (Or maybe they are in a state of denial, waiting for others to make the decisions for them, or until reality come a great big smacking in their faces!) I for one choose not to remain oblivious or ignorant to my responsibility of making life decisions.

But then, we should never let our convictions and decisions be guided by our attractions or selfish desires. How do we really know what we want? We may have a pretty good grasp of what we want right now -probably because it’s better to have an aim than nothing to aim for at all; even though it offers a false sense of security, it helps appease the worrying hearts of parents and save us the obligation of living up to our parent’s plans and dreams for us.
(One simple example would be my dad constantly telling me about the journeys and benefits of a lawyer, in the hopes that I would aim to be one too.) Luckily enough, I made up my mind long ago to reach into the corporate world. At least, this is what I think I want. (Who wouldn’t want to be a multi-millionaire CEO right?)

But even if we do know what we want, how do we know if what we’re aiming for is truly what’s right and best for us? Is it what our hearts yearn and truly long for? More importantly, is it what God wants for our lives?

Surely, God knows what’s best for us and holds us in our best interests everything that happens in our lives.(Romans8:28) And since we are called according to His purpose, are we not highly-ordained by God and empowered to do great things to glorify His Name? (Honestly, I’d much rather prefer being a fulltime missionary like Mother Theresa, working with people and helping to fulfil the needs of the needy. It would be so much more fulfilling and worthwhile than running in the highly stressful and unrelenting rat race.) But then again, we can’t all be missionaries. The world still needs its corporate and political leaders, its many MPPJs, its amazing chefs and its Hollywood stars. Indeed, the world would not survive if not for diversity. (Thus the falling of the Babel Tower has proved itself most necessary and worthy of today!)

Ok, this post is becoming incredibly long and impossible to finish now.(I really need my beauty sleep!!!) This is one reason why I’ve been lackadaisical towards the world of blogging. Whenever I start writing or stressing on a particular thing or topic, I end up talking about many other things as well; the reason why I can go out of topic in my essay papers. Sigh.

SO where does this leave me?

I was dilemma-ing but have now an inkling towards the world of International Business and Marketing majors; a Sunway University twinning programme with Victoria University, Melbourne.

God, it this where and what You’d like me to do?

Thailand Trip 09

This is so for the sake of updating.

Nah, not really.

I owe it to Thailand for making my last weekend a memorable one.

SO, here I shall go promoting Thailand!!! :)

Last Friday, my family and I left for Bangkok, Thailand.

For fun, leisure and shopping! What else?

But truthfully, the only other thing that made my day in Thailand, (other than shopping) is

the super spicy Thai chilli sauce!!!! beats any other sauce Ive tasted on Earth! Most most shioking. seriously. you cannot deny my tastebud's sensitivity to the spicy flavour. I live to eat the spicy.

At the airport in Thailand! first holiday in the longest time i shared with my dear tai ko!

The Floating Market-highly recommended place for shopping! all cheap and good! do you know, that they operate their food-selling stores on their boats!!! Even I doubted their effeciency to work and sell from their boats at first! But it seems that they are able to make a living from it. laksa, fishballs on sticks, fruits and kuih!

Note to self: always sit at the very front of the long boats in Thailand to avoid getting wet by splashed water induced by the motor.

:)

The food in Thailand is absolutely glorious!!! and cheaper! I love the super-sized cooked prawns!!!!! super duper yummmY!

The King's Palace.

In Thailand, you cannot cannot CANNOT say anything bad about the Royalties to any local. The least you will get is a scolding, the most would be jail. The Thais are completely and absolutely devoted to their King;undivided loyalty till the very end.

My dad would say..."look its my three beautiful Charlie's Angels!" (I usually scrunch up my nose and make a funny face at this most constant and annoying remark, but this time, I just smiled my pretty smile! Bcos I know that I get to eat my yummy shiok shiok chilli sauce at every meal!)

i miss the thai chilli sauces! :(



Did you know, that Bangkok's actual Thai name is

Krung-thep-maha-nakorn-boworn-ratana-kosin-mahintar- ayudhya-amaha-dilok-pop-nopa-ratana-rajthani-burirom-udom-rajniwes-mahasat-arn-amorn-pimarn- avatar-satit- sakattiya-visanukam ?

HEHE

No need to know la! YOu only need to know

Gorgeous Gloria the Great. :)
