Make full use of the camera

Ever since getting a phone with a camera, the slow reaction side of my brain didnt quite connect the ability to take photos with my phone. till recently, really recent. that’s when the photos started appearing on this blog.

pictures do tell much more than words. and i’ll try to make full use of the bluetooth adapter i bought to transfer photos from my phone to my pc.

so in the meantime, here’s one for you.

I once attempted to have short hair. this was the first try. prior to that, my hair was almost waist length. didnt have enough guts to try the one that i wanted – boyish crop. sometime after this picture, i took another try at having short hair and had a bob cut instead. 

im still itching at the idea of cropping my hair really short. but the concern is. hesitation. oh dear. im starting to like my hair that is growing longer and longer again.

Final paper of my life maybe?

the last paper maybe for my life is going to happen in another 25 hours of so. there are so many memories, emotions and thoughts to pen down but so little time with limited vocabulary to express.

Im so prone to blisters la. this is a picture of one i had recently right on my second toe. the cause of wearing flip flops around the whole day. the wound stings. thank god there’s no wound scar to it =) im back with my brown flip flops now. all is well. the past and the hurt is forgiven. and the intimacy between my feet and the flip flop is back to its original state =)

spaghetti sales attempt #1 (part 3)

 

We met kenneth during the chaos nearby station 2. he biked all the way with the intention to support us. poor guy. came all the way but saw no stall. haha. we walked around sg long to check out the condition of other mamaks and roadside stalls. none were open. even the lorry style hawkers were closed.

we ended up having a good ice blended mango shared among the 4 of us.

The mango ice blended. the stall uncle was so sweet to make one for us even though it was only one for 4 people and it was way past his working hours. by then it was almost midnight, he was suppose to close by 10.

The adventure troup of the night. =)

walking back home feeling satisfied with the cold iced mango, we passed by a dark station 2. the workers were so demotivated by the actions taken by the council. afterall, they had the permit, they had the passport and they abided by the rules. there was no absolute reason for them to be disturbed but yet the drama happened. malaysia boleh anyone?

Half made roti at station 2 before the raid. its of no use now.

fret not all you food lovers. pasta and station 2 will be up and opening again today!! *keeping fingers crossed.

tentative time for pasta is from 6.30 onwards. see you there!

spaghetti sales attempt #1 (part 2)

Sherine noticed the dvd seller keeping his stuff at super uber speed. and we panicked. that’s not a good sign huh. haha. i threw what i could into the plastic bag i had. sherine funny la. she panicked till dont know how to keep. she had alicia’s backpack with her but didnt think of putting things in. haha. we were just throwing what we could and trying to carry all of them with the 4 hands that we had.

run la. run. the dvd seller ran. we ran too. but the pot was hot and there was the table. in the end we opened the table, put everything above it and carry the table back. haha.

oh dear.

we reached home at 9. all laughing and sweating, almost feeling exhausted from the drama. the common decision we had was to pause and go out again at 1130 just like announced earlier. reasoning being. its a little too late for the municipal to sweep our stall and its supper time for the peeps.

we took our break. still had on and off giggles of the near getting caught experience we had. writing about it now still give me the adrenaline pump.

just at 11.20 when we were about to step out from the door. a sudden impulse pushed me to check my facebook for one last time in case there was an additional order that i missed. and i saw “oh no, station 2 kena sapu”. dang. that’s not good news for us.

we took a walk downstairs without all our pots and bags just to check out the situation. not good. not good. there was a crowd of bystanders all around station 2. students sitting on almost every table. later i found out it was a form of support because the officers were not allowed to confiscate tables and chairs with customers on it. the most outstanding sight was the number of vans with full load officers. around 5 to 6 of them. with one police car. one lorry for carting away their belongings i think. and one tow truck. tell me what is a tow truck doing there at this time of the night?

spaghetti sales attempt #1 (part 1)

so we did try to put up the stall selling pasta just opposite 7-eleven right outside cypress and scot pine condo.

the afternoon was full of exciting and fun havoc in the kitchen. sherine was peeling potatoes and warming up stuff. alicia was going in and out the kitchen after nicely mincing the whole tupperware full of chicken. while i was happily looking out for the remaining task to do.

later in the evening, both alicia and sherine went to get more supplies for the next batch of sauce. and they went downstairs with one huge backpack, one foldable table and one pot of sauce. comical sight to behold. the kitchen at home was not less of any chaos. this time round, yunnyuan and myself were busy prancing around the kitchen, chopping and boiling and washing up all at the same time.

alicia calls

no more pasta! get more down! fast! finishing already!

haha. that calls for a mad dash to the grocery shop to grab a few more packets of pasta. run back home. boil them on full blast fire. mind goes ‘faster la, faster cook. faster. faster.’

* we’ll be back there again tonight around 11.30. All you hungry folks looking for supper. come and drop by ya =)

tomato based pasta. Medium – RM 3.50, Small – RM 2.50

matters of the heart. once decided to swap with a person, is best kept secured with constant assurance.

Economic Recession Survival Plan (ERSP)

1. spend less
2. sell spaghetti

• this is for real. me and housemate alicia actually cooked up a whole pot of spaghetti with mince chicken. fresh tomatoes. mushroom topping. we even drew the price list already. all set to carry the stuff down. open a table under the road light just outside cypress, opposite station 1. then we noticed something amiss. "pi gu yang" just got summoned yesterday. maybe we should play safe.
  
• Anyway. we'll be at the morning market tomorrow morning. Spaghetti sauce is being stewed at the moment to get an even richer taste. Its all cooked with love ya. =)
  
• Price goes at Medium size - RM 3.50. small RM 2.50.
  

till then. wish me all the best in my ERSP.

rainbow

the sight after a slight heavy downpour.
a rainbow as a sign of covenant
also the name of our cg. (er. im not sure if its confirmed =P sounded too much like chai hong's name)

i need to push myself more to study. tomorrow's paper is in the morning.

and oh. water rationing starts from 5 pm today till 9 am tomorrow morning. i remember when i was younger, there was a major water cut. we didnt prepare enough water. my parents actually asked for a favor from the school's canteen to allow us kids to take a bucket of water so that we would have enough to shower. haha.

it suddenly hit me that. its my last 2 papers. tuesday and friday then im done. the long awaited moment. even the boyfriend is excited. more than excited. graduating was a long time ago only spoken of moment. everytime we talk about graduating, it seemed ages away. something that can only be imagined, dreamed about.

But now, im just days away from that moment. wow. the feeling is indescribable.

a jab
a pang
a stitch
a cut

i hear you
it worries me
i feel you
it concerns me

lose it
work it
tightened it
firm it

Ways to make single eyelid eyes bigger

  

Single eyelid girls always have more concern with how to draw their eyes. Rather known as ‘mata sepet’. Just like for myself, it took practice and hours of trial and error to know what looks best for my eyes.

Well, dont fret, if you dont like your eyes. there are a few methods to make them look outstanding.

1. Wear something on them so that people would notice the accessory more than the eyes.

2.  get them drawn so that. they look noticeably larger than the original size. 

sherine looking gorgeous with make up on. killer eyes la. =P i like i like. oh ya. she’s getting a new pair of specs too. the change of appearance as she graduates! watch out for her ya! she’s looking pretty =)

Oh dear. and i was suppose to be studying the morning way. but got so carried away with drawing her eyes. haha. time to buck up. buck up. back to books. attempts to anyway.

* its a feeling very girly day.

this is what exams does to people like me.
exploding pimples.
tiny eyes.
lethargic whole day long.
stress level increase.
words spoken decreased.

oh well. last exams d. push through siaomeen!

dragging my fingers to type out the remaining notes for tmr's paper. eh. its no longer tomorrow. its some time later today. brain is struggling to absorb. but mind says. push through siaomeen. push through. another 12 hours or so to go. plan is to just understand the concept. and go and. er. write what i understand. afterall. its an application paper. nothing is wrong. and at the same time, nothing much is. right? oh dear.


my comfort food is. finished. i need more comfort food. been spending so much on food till. i think i need to start to fasten my belt to survive this month. boo. the vigorous attempts to try swimming to loose weight has only worked as a counter balance to the fats i've gained. when will i ever get to see the lean tummy again?

anyway. its Strategic Marketing Planning and Control tomorrow. tough one. but im sure god will provide. just like how he always does =)

i still am craving for mint chocolate chip flavoured ice cream.

piles of books.

im heading for my first paper.

what has become of the church and religion? do we set standards so high that we classify certain behaviors as undespicable? are we looking down on people who we perceive as unholy or weird? have we forgotten that we are also part of this world and we are also only humans?

each religion has its own teaching. this i agree. but what gives humans the right to think that one is superior over another? a hidden silent thought could be much more dangerous then an intention made known to public.

is there something wrong with being verbal with thoughts? no. its perfectly alright. however, not accepts what is said. not everyone accepts a portrayed behavior. that itself is alright also. as long as the thin fine thread is not stepped on triggering an unintended catfight or so.

a wound. a cut. a sore blister. everyone had them once before. attitudes and thoughts are also part and parcel of life. live with it. admonish if necessary. pray alongside.

Papers

My first paper for my final exam starts tomorrow.

Have yet to feel the 'oh no I'm graduating' feeling. Weird case. Everyone's feeling it already. At least those that asked me what are my thoughts about leaving uni.

I feel so cold heart-ed for taking it just as another phase of life. Sometimes i think i grow up and grow cold too fast.

Back to studying. I find comfort in food. Tons of food. That explains the grow in size ever since i left home. back home, the food intake volume is more or less fixed at meals. Not much of in betweens to munch on. But staying out, freedom comes when its related to food. My appetite grew. Dating a big guy further encouraged eating more food.

Hopefully the exercise plan to go swimming as and when i can helps to trim down the noticeable excessive rounds around my tummy. not a pretty sight. mommy and daddy thinks i need to er. look for firm so that i dont look pudgy for interviews.

Talking about interviews. Upcoming interviews are right before my last paper and right after my last paper. all the rush in going for interviews was fun. the preparation, the last minute freak out, sweating and getting all nervous in the toilet. haha. random-nye. oh well, pray that god will open doors where his will is, and close those that is not in his plan. keeping my fingers crossed. God knows best after all.

dang. i still feel cold heart-ed. what is wrong with me?
