:: LOVE ME TENDER ::

'Ello earthlings! Imma update about my awesome day I had yesterday. As told in my previous entry, I baked banana muffins with chocolate chips yesterday night. I didn't know how they would taste like, but they looked totally fine, so I supposed they would taste fine as well. Things went up side down. Early in the morning yesterday, woke up, dressed up, and had a muffin I baked as my breakfast. The first bite I had almost pulled out all my teeth -.- (my teeth are fragile kay? I have braces). It was hard enough to be a biscuit. It tasted pretty good, but it was just, TOO HARD FOR ME TO EVEN BITE! Assuming I might have unluckily taken the muffin which was less 'ordinary', I asked my gramma (who came along with us few days back) if it was okay and the first response she gave me was 'I can't imagine myself biting it again. Too sweet. Too hard. Do you really know how to bake?' BOOM That was just too straight. FYI, my gramma's an awesome cook. You can't expect her to favour something so dreadful. From all the commentaries I've got from the family and the maid, none was a compliment. Partially because it was too hard.



Later, Wendy arrived. I would like to thank her brother for fetching us to KLCC so obligingly (which I kinda felt sorry to him 'cos we virtually neglected him all the way). On the way to KLCC, Wendy and HanYin had a munch on my muffin. Astonishing enough, THEY LIKED IT! But still, they think it's too hard. In short, what I baked wasn't exactly muffins, but BISCUITS! Or COOKIES! The picture below is a random snapshot I took before placing them into the oven. See??? They looked fine right, right, right?





When we reached, we went to the bookfest which was held in the convention centre. It was crowded, as in seriously CROWWWWDED! I hardly had the chance to breathe. As you know, I don't go to bookfests. I hate being packed like sardines, I hate places with so many people. So, I was thinking to just, loiter around and see what interesting things or activities they had. THEN! I saw so many PROMOTIONS (no, they're not only 20% or 50%), I simply took a basket from the entrance and off I went with my blink blink eyes. I saw books which previously cost RM100+ went down all the way to RM16.90! Hence, I bought two books which obviously, I don't even think I can finish reading. But I can feel the feeling of being successful inside! I don't read novels nor do I buy any books. I always prefer to watch and watch. Read? No way. It's just, rare, SO SO RARE. HanYin and JiaWen couldn't believe I actually bought 2 books from the bookfest (I know 2 isn't a large number for you. BUT TO ME, IT IS!). Haha, let's see if I will literally read them one day. Yea, LET'S WAIT, AND SEE :D .



RueChien wasn't there yet. It was lunch time already. We were planning for a picnic, but the garden was too crowded. There were Malays everywhere. No empty spaces at all. So, we decided to eat the food we prepared earlier in a food court. While we were happily eating, RueChien reached. Her awesome pawsome striking pair of blue shoes from Reebook caught our eyes. Haha. You can see it from one of the pictures below. I practically had to force them to finish up my muffins. I wanna bring home an empty tupperware to show the family that my muffins weren't that dreadful LOL. Then, we went for the movie -- Final Destination 5. God, I seriously do not want to recall anything about that eerie movie. I watched Final Destination 2 and 3 before. Yeap, they totally gave me goosebumps. BUT THE FIFTH ONE. Man, the way they died was just, NAUSEATING. I'm sorry but I'm so not telling you anything about this creepy movie. Thank god we didn't watch it in 3D.



After the movie, HanYin, Wendy and Shuqi went back home. The remaining 3 of us went to the highest floor to search for restaurants for our dinner. We had our dinner at an i-forgot-the-name Chinese restaurant. The food was nice. We spent our time gossiping and reminiscing our primary school moments. After our dinner, we had nothing to do (we were actually waiting for the arrival of your majesty, miss cheow, but she was still stuck on top of Genting Highlands -.-), so we went to the cinema, again. Haha. Wanted to watch Cars 2. In the end, we decided to watch Glee Concert Movie 3D. It was awesome. I have to give it a high thumbs-up. I'm not a Gleek. I skipped lotsa episodes. BUT THEIR SONGS ARE SO IRRESISTIBLE YOU JUST WANT TO KEEP ON LISTENING!



After the movie, we went to Starbucks and had 'supper'. We ordered 2 slices of cakes and 2 frappuccinos. After that, I received a phone call from ZhiSan's mum. Then only we knew she had been waiting for us in the convention centre for 1 hour. We quickly told the waitress to pack our food up and ran to the convention center. First of all, we did call her sister, BUT we couldn't reach her, so we didn't know she didn't follow. Secondly, we merely had her sister's number. Hence, we couldn't contact anyone else. Thirdly, ZhiSan's phone merely had RueChien's number and by the time her mum wanted to find us, RueChien's phone was out of battery. You get the picture of the situation? Fortunately, ZhiSan remembered my house number. Her mum called my dad and got my number. Eventually, they contacted us. We felt the guilt, STRONG GUILT. Imagine. They waited for us for 1 hour and her mum had to meet someone. So, they were actually in a rush. MAN, WE'RE SO SO SO SORRY.





I think, it is time for me to learn how to not blog with so many meaningless points. It's not like somebody will actually read it -.- . What's the use of typing on and on, and on? Arghhhh... See? I'm typing meaningless stuffs again. I needa stop. In conclusion, my day was awesome. 2 movies on a day, 2 books I've got from the bookfest (GAWSH I FEEL GOOD). GOODNIGHT. I'm hungrehh.







It is through memory


that we hold on


to those we love.

:: REFLECTION ::

Good evening readers! I'm back from daddy's hometown. Was supposed to go to Thailand with Daddy and Mummy but heck, my passport friggin' expired at the friggin' wrong time. So, I was in boredom to the max. I brought more than 10 JUEC textbooks there but as expected, I didn't even touch any of them at all, even a tiny little finger tip. Anyway, I don't plan to study anything in this holiday, so well, it doesn't really matter. Okay, what was I saying? Boredom. Fortunately, the TV was showing shows which have totally entertained me. First of all, it was The Glee Project. It is a project to choose a group of Glee members from the vast number of participants. They would test them on dancing, singing, duets, acting and so forth. The participants get eliminated one by one in each episode. You should go look for it or watch it on every Monday to Wednesday at 8.55pm (if I'm not mistaken) on Star World. Next, it was Masterchef Australia. I was drooling all over the place, staring at their mouthwatering food. How on earth could they bake/cook such creative food when they only had ingredients? All they could do was to THINK and THINK with their maximum creativity strategy. So yea, these two TV shows were what I was chasing over the past few days. Boring? No, they just totally ruled :) !



So, tomorrow, I'm going to KLCC with JiaWen, RueChien and ZhiSan. We're gonna have an extreme stress-release-day. Why? I'll post about everything tomorrow. Anyway, I just finished baking banana muffins with chocolate chips (the fragrance is with no doubt, irresistible). The chocolate chips aren't visible already. They're all melted by the oven. Awhhh, too bad. At first, I was thinking that my muffins wouldn't look that plain 'cos the chocolate chips could be the decorations. In the end, they all MELTED. Heart-sunk.... Hopefully, tomorrow will be a great day (oh well, I already received a phone call from someone who has TOTALLY RUINED my mood for tomorrow's outing, BUT let me tell YOU something, YOU have to learn how to stick with the plans before even promising. LEARN and THINK, before even taking any actions. I'm telling you this 'cos I've been through SO MANY troubles just because YOU always promise, before thinking. YOU GET ME, or not? End).



I'll be updating about the school stuffs as told in my previous post next time. It's gonna be a long LONG post. When I say long, IT'S REALLY LONG (as you can see, all my entries are long, but to me, they're just normal). Hmmm, about my holiday. Nothing much. Too much of ice-cream in my tummy. If you know me well, I don't eat/drink cold food/beverages. It's not like I'm heading to the healthy lifestyle, but I do have some health problems. I stopped eating/drinking any cold stuffs since standard 6. But in these 3 days, I ate 2 scoops of ice-cream in two days. It might be normal to you, BUT TO ME, it's quite traumatizing. Heh. Alright, the photos are below! Scroll down. Scrrrrrrrrrroll!





On Saturday, the family and I went for Karaoke. Again? Yes, again. Nothing much to say about the Karaoke session. I'm downloading a HongKong drama called The Other Truth. They're loading too slow, just TOO SLOW. I'm getting more impatient right now. Curse PPS and PPTV. Their HongKong dramas are lost! And so, I believe in miracles. Their entire list of HongKong dramas could literally go POOOOOOF and tadaa, lost, or much rather, disappeared. That's all for today. I might be updating for tomorrow IF I have time 'cos I'm gonna reach home at 10, or maybe later. So, NITEY PEEPS :) !







The moment I saw you cry,


Was the moment we said goodbye.

:: STICK WITH YOU ::

Stop asking me for an update! I already informed you all that I will not update so frequently from August, didn't I? Hah, just kiddin'. PMR trial exam is officially over! My friends from government school are asking me the same question 'Why ended? One more day left'. Yo dudes and dudettes, I study in a stupid independent school. We don't use government PMR trial papers nor do we follow their timetable. In short, we're REALLY 'independent'. Haha, like as if I am -.- . So, what about PMR trial exam? It was pretty tough for me. BM (1) was terrible, Sejarah and Geography were mad crazy, dot dot. I seriously don't feel like going to school tomorrow. I'm still unprepared to face my terrible results D: .



I have so so so much to tell I don't know where to start. I'll be continuing this post on the weekend. Hmm... where shall I start? I had my piano practical and theory exams few weeks back. Piano practical exam was held in Damansara's Hilton Hotel. Normally it would be in Grand Blue Wave. Damansara's Hilton sucks. It's located in the center of town. Every highways, fly-over, just, whatever roads which could be seen, were congested. Don't ever get yourself there 'else you would be stuck there for life. That stupid location ALMOST made me late. I was so panicky I kept messaging Teacher Angeline. Hah, she was so worried I would panicked too much and couldn't calm myself down for exam. She knew I could make it on time. Well, I ALMOST couldn't make it. My dad briskly left me, mum and Jane in front of the hotel. We wanted to take the elevator but there were only 2 friggin' elevators which were still stuck ON TOP, so we decided to use the staircase. Then, we went to the wrong venue. Staircase again. Eventually when I reached, they called my name and it was my turn already. First of all, all the hastes were worth it. Why? Because Mr. Jonathan the cellist looked so handsome I just couldn't stop staring at him. No, I AM NOT exaggerating. All my friends see eye-to-eye with me. And from this, we concluded that after so many years of classes and efforts we've put, all is worth it 'cos for our very last grade, we got to have such a good-looking examiner! The exam was kinda terrible. Especially when it came to the aural singing section, I was ogling at him and I forgot to listen to what he was playing. Hence, I sang things I created -.- . So sweat right? What to do? Blame on his awesome face hahaha. And and, he was being very very nice okay? He said 'Thanks for playing for me. I had a great time listening. Have a good day! Goodbye!'. Seriously, if I were given a choice, I would tell him 'LET ME STAY'. For the past few years, 7 years in precise, including my violin practical exams' examiners, most of them were old, bald and fat. This time, IT'S DIFFERENT! Oh Jonathan, when can I ever meet you again????



I have to stop talking about Jonathan. Okay. Theory exam was holey shytie terrible. I was deliriously staring at questions 1 to 5. Blank. Yes, blank. It was amazingly/surprisingly tougher than our trial exam. Peeps, I only got 69 for my trials. 66 is the passing mark. I'm dead. No, you need not comfort me 'cos I'm prepared for this. No matter what, I WILL NOT resit my grade 7. If I must, I'll just stop theory. Theory sucks ever since I started grade 6. It's such a big leap between grade 5 and 6. Grade 7 isn't hard honestly. The hard part is that we have to compose things here and there, in the mean time, compromising with another instrument. Oh yea, I've forgotten to mention that the exam was held in SMK Batu 14. Hah the worst school ever. I can't imagine students studying there without getting pissed off with the surroundings. #1, cleanliness is given a mark of 5% ; #2, facilities are 'beautifully' vandalized ; #3, their doors didn't seem to be working anyway, dot dot. One word, indescribable.



Oh by the way, I'm taking piano diplomas after JUEC exam. I don't know what force pulled me back. I did think of taking diplomas previously but that was trillion years back thing. Somehow I feel very very enthusiastic in continuing. I feel that life without piano classes is empty, like Macbeth's (haha, too much of literature). But the thing is, diplomas aren't easy you know? I will have to learn all kinds of vital techniques. I still haven't thoroughly mustered the basics, oh no. The grip, the body movement, dot dot. It somehow sounds intriguing for me. All I need is ample time to spend on the piano. Some people may be thinking, why do I elect to continue for my ambition has NOTHING to do with music? Well, music is apart of my life. I'll feel very empty without music. Every day I would at least touch the guitar or piano. Violin? Sorry, it's entirely ignored at a corner haha.



Also, I left FortePiano due to some .... parental issues. I didn't want to of course. My friends in theory class are not very close with me but we could be very very hyper in class teacher find us uncontrollable. When teacher quoted 'We work as a group. Nobody will be left behind. We pass together. We excel together'. Man, you don't know how much of PAIN and MISERY I was enduring inside. I almost burst into tears but I kept a smile hanging upon my face. We're like a family. You think I can leave without even feeling miserable? Leaving piano practical class was WORSE. Teacher Angeline taught me for 10 years. No joke, T-E-N years. I wanted to get her a gift to convey my gratitude towards her obligation to teach me with such patience and interesting ways, but I didn't have time to get it before our last class. Holey, depression now. I'll be continuing in my violin academy, Pastorale, which is quite a well-known music academy. Hopefully my new teacher, Ms. Thean, would bear with my horrible flattened-fingers when playing the piano.









Ahhhhh... I have too much to talk about! KC's Open Day, KC Talent Time, jamming moments etc. Stay tuned for these. I'm gonna talk about The Sleepover :D . After KC's Open Day, The Zenith (a band we formed, consists of 5 members who are Me, zYuan, yteng, hYing and hYin) went jamming in the Icons Studio. I'll talk more about this in my next update. After our practice, yTeng and zYuan came over and sleptover. We were planning to sleep at 5. But our eye lids were kissing. We were totally weared out 'cos of Open Day. We were stalking almost EVERYONE we know in my room. Gossips and all sorts! Hah awesome. We woke up at 10 in the morning the next day. Previously, zYuan suggested waking up at 8 and jog in the park. Epic failed, as expected. Gawsh, I still can't believe 3 of us could literally sleep on my only-queen-sized bed. We insisted sleeping together even though my maid already prepared everything for them in the guest room. I've read an article saying that if you have ever slept with you friends on a same bed, it can be proven that you are very very close with them. So right :D ! Okay, after lunch, we went to the park. We decided to go to the park at the back 'cos it's much closer compared to the park in front. We hyped too much, like totaaaaaaaally. Snap Snap! Photos are below! I have nothing much to say. 'Cos everything went like SWAAAAAG, HYPERRRRRR, BOOM BOOM POWWWWWW. This it it ;) .









I wanna hold you 'till I die,


'Till the fear in me


Subsides.
