Business game for the young

I think this is probably my first time representing my college to compete in an inter-college championship. I was pretty much nervous for the fact that I'm not at all prepared & would probably make a fool out of myself. I did planned to quit the last min but after some serious consideration...I decided not to as it would be so mean to ditch my friend & leave her alone. It's a 3-day challenge held at Jalan Ampang, KL next to Holiday Villa. The teams that successfully enter the following rounds will spend the night at the hotel, accomodations all paid for.

Two teams were sent to take on the challenege, with me & Jen being in one team with another two from Finance. Here's a little info about the competition. Each team represents a company & it's required to manage a business through making decisions. This involves determining how much to produce, how much of raw materials, is the capacity enough to accomodate increase in production, the marketing costs, product development yadi yada. After submitting the decision form, the computer software will generate your financial results based on the pre-programmed simulated economy.

Honestly, my team of four had no idea how to play the game even with the stack of manual & the game master guiding all the teams throughout the challenge. Boy, we struggled a lot on the first day & panicked when we began to see negative figures in our P&L accounts. Miraculously, we made it into the semi-finals after making huge losses at the last part of the game. I left early as I had to attend a wedding so I wouldn't say that I was contributing much to getting the team to the next round. The credits definitely goes to my team members. In fact, I would like to thank them for qualifying the next round. I mean, I wouldn't be returning to the venue the next day to resume the game if it weren't thanks to them.

On the 2nd day, we played well. REALLY WELL, I have to stress on that. Mainly cuz we knew how to tackle the game this time. You can see that we made decisions pretty fast compared to the first day. Unfortunately, we still lost. Perhaps our sales progressed a little too slow at the beginning of the game. We were a risk aversed, taking on the safe route. Nevertheless, we were quite delighted knowing that we almost made into the finals as the points were pretty close. Good game, it was. Glad that I didn't chicken out last min or else I would've missed out a lot. We made new friends, learnt new stuff not written in the books & most importantly, teamwork. At least, it's better feeling drained out at the competition than being in college. :D

The lift

Random incident, I tell ya. Jen & I were waiting patiently for the lift in the campus building after pressing the "down" button. One of the lifts were descending from the upper floors & by the time it reached the 4th floor, the door opened in front of us.

Guess what we saw?

PITCH BLACK DARKNESS. In other words, no lights.

In a matter of seconds, the lights lighted up as if knowing that there'll be people entering the lift. For some reason, we dared not enter cuz it all seemed too weird. I might sound paranoid but I wouldn't wanna risk getting myself trapped inside the lift IF it decides to malfunction. I'm claustrophobic, I think. *shrugs*

This strikes me as another spooky scene in those cliched Japanese/Korean horror movies.

Weekend getaway

I'm back! For the first time, I felt so good to be out of town; thousands of miles away from home without any civilisation - Internet. I had mixed feelings while packing up to leave for home in a few hours. Part of me was relieved that I'm heading back to my sacred sanctuary - my bedroom. However, I had a strong urge to stay on cuz I was drawn to the peaceful and quiet surrounding at my uncle's place. It helped me put my past behind; all those awful feelings that I don't wish to recall anymore. People that I don't wanna lay eyes on are out of sight. At least the trip did good, momentarily.

I love the fact that I had a room for myself to spend the night. It's just so darn comfy to snuggle under the sheets while having my lappie to keep me company. I'm doing work, not playing okay? XD Being the only one still awake while others sound asleep, I can't help feeling lonely & depressed again. And to blame myself for things that happened makes matters worse. I still cannot let go, to some extent. Tough times ahead, it seems. *sighs*

Anyways, my uncle & his wife moved to a new house late last year but I was too occupied with studies & working that I missed the opportunity to visit him again. This time, paying him a visit was a perfect excuse for a weekend getaway XD. I'd have to say...their new house look fabulous. Spacious. Modern yet homey too ^^. It's no wonder I didn't wanna go home.

The dining hall.

Alas, on my way home...I had to take a snapshot of this manufacturing plant in case I forget. In fact, I saw it on the day I arrived. Here it is.

Seeing a newly built Seagate manufacturing plant all the way in Skudai, JB caught me by surprise.

P.S. I'm sporting a new hairdo with a slight reddish hue. You can say that I'm damn proud of my revamped look. Definitely a boost in my confidence.

I'm going off!

On hiatus. Going out of town, I am. Please don't miss me, okay? Be good while I'm gone.

Cheers!

Step-by-step to cooking Mei's favourite instant noodle

Follow my instructions closely & you'll get to enjoy a sumptious Korean instant noodle meal. ^^

1. Read the instructions on the packaging carefully before cooking.

2. Open the packaging & place the content in a bowl while waiting for water to boil.

3. Pour in the noodle & the seasoning, leaving it to simmer for approx 4 mins. Add egg or veggie to taste.

4. Voila! There you have it, a spicy & soupy Korean noodle for you to savour. Who said it was hard to cook? It's still instant noodle. XD

Just another Mother's Day

Mother's Day celebration was just like any other previous years. There's nothing much to hoo-hah about as all of us do the same thing each year. That is...going out as a whole family for dinner at a nice restaurant. We decided to dine at Summer Palace as usual so I shall not elaborate much on the dishes we had. The menu is the same...ALL THE TIME.

Apart from the non-stop, loud horrendous renditions of oldies by a group of ladies at the room next to us; we were having a peaceful time among ourselves. My cousin sis came back from Singapore for a couple of days so that made 12 of us in the room. I was too lazy to take pics cuz I wasn't in the mood lately. The only thing that captured my attention was the fish we had for dinner. It tasted pretty okay - not that it was bad but just not to my liking. I prefer steamed fish, especially white pomfret served fresh from the kitchen. Anyways, I had to take a pic of the fish cuz the way it was positioned on the plate was rather....interesting XD. Here you go!

Figure skates

My 3rd trip to the skating rink was an awesome experience. The more often I visited the rink, I felt that I was more familiar with the ice & had better control of my balance. Apart from that, I was wearing a good pair of skates, not those stiff rental skates that countless people have put their feet in. Speaking of figure skates, I managed to borrow my cousin bro's old pair which has been kept in the store room for years. Decided to try it on since he has no use of it anymore cuz his feet has grown so much.

Miraculously, the skates fit me perfectly. Or should I say a little too perfect that it is now too tight when worn with socks. I had to resort to wearing silk stockings. Even then, my left foot is rather tight compared to the right one cuz basically - my feet size are imbalance. It's good thing that my foot hadn't any blisters.

The skates are black in colour, sadly. What more can I expect when it belonged to cousin bro anyways? None of the ladies in my family bought a white pair back then. So I had to put up with a black now. It's a pity that cousin bro didn't take good care of it & neglected it in the store room for many years. The external condition is pretty bad that the outer layer of the leather boot has melted probably due to exposure to intense heat. The blades rusted so bad that I had perfect grip the minute I stepped into the ice with it. For a start, I couldn't even push my leg & glide forward.

Thankfully, the lady on duty at the rental skates counter was nice enough to manually scrape off the rust off the blades with her bare hands at no charges. This was the only way since the machine used for sharpening wasn't functioning. And she couldn't tell me when a new machine would arrive. *sighs* How unfortunate! All I need now is to get a pair of skate guards to protect the blades which is virtually impossible now that the pro shop has been closed down. Ordering online, it is then~

Can you spot the melted surface on the leather boot?

At least, most of the rusts were removed. It still gets rusty due to condensation. -_-"

Shopping alone, or should I say window shopping by myself is a rather torturous moment to endure. With insufficient cash in hand, all I could do was stare at the glass windows with starry eyes. Searching for the right pair of stilettos to match my prom dress proved to be a difficult task especially when the mall only houses branded merchandises. It's just so happened that I have to meet up a friend there. Boy, we chatted for almost an hr just about Dong Bang in Kinokuniya while standing & browsing through magazines at the Japanese section. XD

Anyways, walking aimlessly in one of the most exclusive shopping malls such as KLCC ain't that bad after all. It's a haven for all things new - fashion, electronics, you name it. Be the first to witness them while you're there. Especially when concept stores like Sony showcasing its ubersome huge LCD TV for your ultimate viewing pleasure. (shown as below)

The least I expect to see is a whopping 103" plasma TV by Panasonic, the world's largest plasma TV in the world recently exhibited at CES 2008. It's so enormous that it no longer looks like a TV. When viewed from a near distance, it's not even HD -_-". I think you need to stand really far to enjoy the crisp clear images. Makes me wonder who would fork out RM220,000 just for a gigantic idiot box to fit into his house.

On my way home, a man in his 30s or 40s carrying a backpack approached me to ask for directions. Being an oh-so-nice citizen, I explained to him on how to get to the railway station - KL Sentral. Then he began sharing his tale regarding how he his passport & wallet, leaving him penniless. He must be trying to garner sympathy & hopefully choke out some money from ppl like me who are too kind, I thought. He even followed me to the train though thankfully he wasn't trying anything bad. We chatted up a little & got to know him more.

Apparently, this man arrived from Singapore at Puduraya to take a bus to Jerantut en route to National Park for err...meditation, I think. He went to the Singapore High Commission to seek help but unfortunately that place is closed on weekends. The only solution is to get his bro to bring the documentation. Which is why he's meeting the bro at the railway station. I trusted him & gathered all the courage to accompany him to KL Sentral. After all, there's no need for me to leave the station with him. I understand how dangerous this is even if I'm only guiding him out & I was thinking...I just got myself into trouble.

Part of me calmed a little cuz I believe I could quickly run away if things go wrong. When we arrived at KL Sentral, I waited while he inserted his ticket to the machine. The barrier lifted up & let him pass. I could see his sullen face gleamed delightfully; I supposed he sure is glad that he went to the correct station. He thanked me many times, expressing how grateful he was that I helped him. We shook hands, exchanged names & he quickly asked if I could spare him a few coings to make a phone call to his bro. Errr...why on earth he doesn't carry a cellphone? Okay, okay ditch that. I actually thought of lending him my cellphone to make a quick call. But on second thoughts, I'd rather not. What if he flees away with my precious baby? NO WAY.

Coins worth RM2 was all I could give as I'm no philantropher. Should he turn out to be a conman, losing that RM2 wouldn't hurt, don't you think so? And so happened I brought very little cash...that makes me pretty broke that day after all spending on sushis from Isetan & a packetful of Korean noodles. I bidded him farewell, wishing him "good luck" & "take care". Curious about the man? He goes by the name Kern (dunno how to spell...) - lives in Bedok, East Singapore & works at Somerset near Orchard Road. I didn't manage to get his contact; preferably not as it's unnecessary anyway. Assuming that Mr. Kern told the truth, he'd probably remember me for the rest of his life cuz I saved his life XD.

As I was returning to the train platform, I couldn't help but smiled. My mood lifted up a lot. Didn't expect that doing small favour is capable of cheering someone. This is what I really need in the next few months since my emotions are really in a mess. Basically this post sums up all that happened yesterday. I've learnt something in this state of loneliness. Going to places give you the liberty but...is it comparable to going with a friend or companion? Judging from my current state, obviously I yearn for anyone to accompany me to ease that emptiness. I need someone to talk to. Usually I prefer to be alone; when I'm feeling perfectly normal.

I went for another round of skating today. I did pretty good, actually. No more landing on the ass nor kissing the ice again ^^. Ah, I feel so proud of myself. I wasn't skating as fast as last Tuesday reason being there were too many ppl who decided to hit the ice since it's a "holiday". There wasn't much space for me to speed up a little. And my pathetic rental skates made things worse, leaving a bruise on left ankle -_-".

Speaking of over-crowded, probably a fraction of the public skaters are capable of skating properly. Which means a large percentage of them will no doubt skate incorrectly, bending their feet inwards & dragging them along the ice thus inflicting serious damage on the skates. That explains why rental skates never turn out right. Oh yeah, which nutter would loosen up their skates laces & walk about outside the rink; nearly tripping over his own wobbly, crooked skates?? Believe it, there is. Geez...I have no respect for ppl who just don't know how to care for public amenities.

During the first hour of skating, a group of ladies (probably my Mum's age or older) came with little luggages housing their skates. They were fully prepared, I thought. They turned out to be awesome skaters! And these ladies were busy practising a dance choreography, mimicking Michael Jackson's Thriller dance. How cool is that?! Skating Mums...*envy* I feel so inferior now. Why did I stop taking lessons back then? *sighs*

In the 2nd hour, the ice got wetter but the crowd seems to be flowing in. It's no longer fun to continue so me & sis left instead. We stopped by at the skating academy to enquire about the price of figure skates as I am tempted to purchase a pair online just for comfortable, recreational skating. Checking how much that academy sells won't do any harm, would it? I was utterly shocked when the lady told me the minimum is RM700. ZOMG. My cousin bought his skates 10 yrs ago at the exact same place for RM500+ & I thought it was already over-priced. Oh well, inflation must've been set in motion during the course of 10 yrs but I'm sure it wouldn't have made such a huge difference. C'mon, how much can a beginner's skates cost? Merely RM100-RM200 based on online US retailers. It's no wonder lots of rich kids from wealthy families only can afford such an expensive sport in Malaysia.

My grandma barged into my room yesterday morning & calling out loud, "You have a package~!!". I woke up, eyes still half shut & walked out to the gate whereby the postman was happily chirping "Good morning!" to me while holding up a huge box. I signed lazily at the spot he pointed at on the paper, grabbed the box & headed back to my room.

I've got heaps of items to sort out since one of my friends ordered a lot this time. *sighs* Seeing this pile of junk items makes me feel lazy. Well, at least all of them already paid so there's less headache. For the love of Dong Bang, I'm doing the gals a favour to order these overly-priced items from Japan. I feel so noble for once XD

Yesterday's karaoke session was fun. What's more exciting than singing your heart with a bunch of girls who are 4 years your junior? XD I had no one to go with, sad to say. It's expected of an introvert like me. Let's see, the last time I went to karaoke was 3 years ago. LOL. To some people, going for karaoke is like their weekly routine. It's no wonder they can sing so well. Guess it's a cheaper alternative for vocal training instead of signing up for vocal training classes.

Since the girls (including me) know nothing about Chinese, we sang lots of English oldies. Like lots of them ^^. Ranging from Bohemian Rhapsody, How Deep Is Your Love to the latest Apologize by Timbaland feat. OneRepublic. We did add a few Japanese songs to pump in some variety cuz me & one of my sis' friend do know how to read hiragana.

After 2 long hours of singing, we decided to hit the bookstore. Coincidentally, Borders is having anniversary sale which means all full priced books are entitled 15% off. How cool is that? XD Initially, I was really tempted to grab 4 books but had to drop the idea cuz the total amount ain't easy on the pocket *sighs*. Finally, I settled for 2 books while sis got one for herself. There goes RM80+ worth of books~

My books ^^

What's better than indulging in my favourite apple cheese slice cake for the 2nd time in a week? ^^ It's expensive but I guess it wouldn't hurt as long as it makes me happy. Remind me to not eat it again this Friday. No more Secret Recipe or I'll be extremely broke. XD

I always have weakness for any apple desserts XD

I'm bored. And still depressed too. The intense loneliness made me ponder about so many things. It made me reflect on the days that gone by. And so, pics are the best to re-live those moments. Events & little incidents that I didn't have the opportunity to blog about as I was too occupied. So here it is - a recap of what happened...

2 Jan 2008

My crazy friends had nothing else better to do & decided to goof around. If you're wondering what this is, it's err...bubbles blown out of a tube. It's impossible to burst & it can be pinched according to the shape you desire. Smells like UHU glue, though.

17 Feb 2008

A long overdue pic taken a week after CNY. It's a small gathering organised by my close friend of 7 yrs at her house. I don't get to see her often though we live so near each other. Guess the timing ain't right for the both of us.

21 Mar 2008

A surprise birthday cake from someone special a friend. Lovely cake, it was! Wished that I could taste it just once more. It's a day that I'll never forget.

1 Apr 2008

A trip to DiGi's headquarters. I tell you, the place is like every man's dream place to work. For a moment, I actually thought of applying to be part of the Yellow Man team XD.

5 Apr 2008

This is the shop I was raving about last year. Remember the fish paste wrapped in fu zok?? I had it again this year & it tasted as good as always ^^. Pity that I lost so much appetite that week; if not I would've eaten more.

11 Apr 2008

This unusual shape of a glass can be found at D'Italiane Kitchen, Jaya 33. Food is delicious, the price is EVEN BETTER XD. I had to take a snapshot of it cuz it's really weird. And you can see how the water takes it shape in the glass, further accentuating its curves.

*sighs* What a journey it has been...

I kissed the ice. ROFL. Okay, not literally. Read on & you'll get what I mean. Yesterday, I went skating with my sis. My first ever skating trip since 8 years ago ^^. I had great fun though I was a little wobbly at the beginning. If that's not enough, I landed on my ass twice & nearly passed out cuz the pain was unbearable. All I saw was stars & the surrounding became blurry. Seriously.

After resting for approximately 10 mins, I got up & return to the ice rink. This time, I was extra careful not to fall hard again. And I got better after each round. Seems like I didn't really forgot how to skate XD. *sighs* I guess I was over-confident & skate too fast or maybe I tripped over a hole...BAM! There I was on the ice; face flat.

It was not supposed to happen but it still did -_-". I fell forward & used both of my hands to support myself on the ice but unfortunately, my hands gave way & my face ended up brushing hard against the ice. Boy, it was awfully painful. And awesomely embarassing too. Why? There was a large group of Business students having their skating trip there & they witnessed the whole incident.

One girl was kind enough to offer me a plaster. But it's not enough to save me from my ultimate public humiliation. Guh! And to have a guy staring at my swollen face for 5 mins was the worst experience ever. The other "pro" skater was probably laughing hard to himself -_-". The least I could do is skate way better than the bunch of students there. Told ya I could skate. I don't do twists, turns & jumps, though. Strictly basic skating. Cuz I'm a slow learner.

My body is aching all over now with some minor bruises on the knees. Ankles are hurting real bad much thanks to the stupid rented skates. Other than that, the pain is due to the lack of physical exercise. I'm THAT weak, sad to say. I really need to work out more. So guess what? Despite all the sores & humiliation, I'm looking forward to another round next week. Hard to believe, eh? XD

I'd swear that I died laughing after watching this. So random! LOL. I know it's a stupid vid but please do watch. It definitely made my day~ XD

Weird Al Yankovic - Eat It

ROFLMAO.

Back from hiatus. Exams were okay; not too difficult nor very easy. It's over anyway so no point discussing about it. I'm still struggling in the road to recovery but so far things are good. Trying to keep myself as busy as possible so as not to let my mind wander off again unnecessarily. Perhaps the IM individual assignment make me a busy bee over the weekend. *shrugs*

I have a serious sleeping disorder, I think. For the past 2 nights, I've been going to bed at 4am. Why would ppl sleep at such late hour when there's a holiday? Wouldn't it make more sense to stay up late when college semesters are on & filled with assignments? *shrugs* I just couldn't sleep for some reason cuz my mind is running wild with imaginations.

No doubt I was thinking a lot about someone...

But the main reason is probably cuz I was over-enthusiastic about ice skating. The thought of putting on skates & going back to the rink after 8 years of not setting foot on the ice at all is overwhelming. It was a sport I used to & still love. Though I was never really good at it, having basic skating skills is more than enough for me. I really love the fact that gliding on thin ice provides that sense of freedom. Indescribable.

Ice skating makes you forget everything that worries you as all the energy is focused on balancing well & pushing your legs across the ice. At the end of the day, all you feel is sore feet but the experience makes you wanna go for the next round. I'm definitely looking forward to my first skating trip in 8 years this Tuesday. ^^

Sorry for the lack of updates lately. My life is in a turmoil at the moment & I'm trying to sort out the mess while preparing for the upcoming exams next week. This is definitely one of the toughest challenge that I have encountered in my life. And I'd probably be in a depression mode in months to come. Not that I wished for it but emotions tend to take over when I'm deeply hurt. It's just me. Enough said.

For the past whole week, I've been thinking a lot. Why on earth did I get myself into such a mess? This is the kind of distraction that I've been avoiding for the past 2 years & should've continued avoiding it. But I have weakened & succumbed to an irresistible temptation. I thought I saw hope in it & finally gather the courage to start over. *sighs* I should've trusted my instincts back then. Sadly, it's too late to regret now as there's nothing that can be done.

The more I ponder about this, the more guilty I felt though I wasn't at fault right from the beginning. I was deprived the chance that I truly deserve. I always tried really hard, unfortunately he never had faith in me. Right now, I felt betrayed. I was told that I understood him the most & listened to him when others pretended they did. That girl treated him badly which is why he decided to give up on her. On top of that, both of us were compatible in so many ways. He also said that he doesn't fall for anyone so easily. Those were the words that I can still clearly recall.

I'd like to believe there was some sincerity in it. However, it's disheartening when all things fail & those words become merely sweet nothings. LIES. Hypocrisy. To the one I'm referring to, I sincerely apologise for such harsh words on you. I can't help it. You'd probably won't understand how excruciatingly painful to wake up every morning, feeling like someone has stabbed through the heart & let it bleed profusely. And to return home from class, locking up myself in the bathroom crying until the swollen eyes & headache set in. Not forgetting the sleep loss, massive appetite loss and the dazed look on the face.

Honestly, it's difficult to endure seeing you every day especially when I hate & love you at the same time. Stick to your promise if you still care for me. Don't be a dumbass & pretend that you don't know cuz I will seriously hate you. No more being friends then. It would be so much easier for me to heal if you get out of my life. It's impossible, anyhow. You're just stupid for not knowing how to treasure a nice girl who sincerely loves you a lot. Ass!

Boy, this is painful... T___T

P.S. Hiatus mode due to exams.

Shit just happens at the wrong place & time. And here I am waiting for a miracle & hoping things would turn around.

I was wrong.

Miracles never exist...

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

How could the one I gave my heart to,
Break my heart so bad?
How could the one that made me happy,
Make me feel so sad?
Won't somebody tell me
So I can understand
If you love me
How could you hurt this heart of mine?
Tell me...yeah
How could you be so cold to me?
When I gave you everything
All my love, all I had inside
How could you just walk out the door?
How could you not love me anymore?
I thought we had forever
I can't understand
How could the one I shared my dreams with,
Take my dream from me?
How could that love that brought so much pleasure,
Bring such misery?

Won't somebody tell me
Somebody tell me please
If you love me,
How could you do that to me?
Tell me

Song title: The One I Gave My Heart To
Sung by: Aaliyah

Ahhh, I finally bought a new power adapter for my lappie. The joy of using my beloved lappie again after being deprived for 2 weeks is heaven! *hugs lappie* Ya know, I was very unlucky cuz the adapter that came with the lappie upon purchase was zapped by lightning. Thank God my sis unplugged the lappie before the incident happened. If not, I would've been devastated.

This is random. My grandma was admitted to the hospital few hrs ago. Why? She fell off the bed while sitting down & sewing a button on her blouse; then broke her right wrist. She was supposed to attend a wedding dinner tonight with Grandpa but in the end, my Dad & cousin bro went instead. *sighs* Unexpected things just happen beyond our control, eh?

OMG! Who would've ever thought that Bearbrick is available in Malaysia?? Unless I'm a frog under the coconut shell, this is a hard-to-get toy in my country. Oh well, I'll admit that I haven't been out to the mall for the past 2 months & obviously didn't know about toy shops stocking up on Bearbricks. So it's true, according to one of the dudes I'm acquainted to. My bad for being un-knowledgeable.

If it wasn't the business fair held recently, I wouldn't have known. Here's a little info about the business fair. Students who took this subject (including my bunch of guy friends) were required to set up a booth to sell stuff for 2 days; which is part of their final year project. In case you didn't know, I ended up helping the dudes to set up though I didn't take up that subject. Guys, you seriously should thank me & Jen for the never-ending support XD.

Okay, here's the thing. This dude I mentioned earlier decided to sell Bearbricks, new & old shoes for his stall. I was utterly shocked when I stopped by his stall to kepoh a while. Along came the squeals & spazzing, expressing how surprised I was that I got to witness this little toys with my very own eyes. I could still remember the last time I saw it on the mu-mo site showing a-nation '06 x Bearbrick collab. Definitely not available in Malaysia. Told myself that I have to own at least one of it.

Without any hesitation, I bought one doctor-themed figure & another orange one the following day. One each for me & my sis. Paying RM10 for a toy sounds insane, don't you think? No doubt it is but c'mon...being part of a Jap craze sounds awesomely cool. I'd always love anything to do with Japanese pop culture. Do look up on the web about Bearbrick cuz this toy brand is pretty unique in a way that its range of designs are joint collabs with other famous brands.

Looking at the box without opening it makes me squee~ XD

For once, plastic toys seemed so cool...

♪ Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me ♪ *sings*

I just turned 22. I'm so old -_-". Only 2 days ago I told myself that I'm still 21 years old. See how one day can change your age...*sighs*

Anyways, my dear 'lil sis bought me a birthday cake & had a mini party together with my cousin bro. Gosh~ I can't remember the last time I blew a candle of a cake. If only you could see how thrilled I was when I was told about it after dinner. So called adult, eh? XD

The cake looks good & tastes pretty good too. For a RM20+ cake, I didn't expect much. I guess it's the thought that counts eh?

Of course, the cake has to have a birthday girl too!

Geez, I looked like a sloppy aunt in rags -_-". Anyways, few of my buddies gave pressies~ Whee! Thank you guys for all the gifts. I really appreciate it. I think pressies are not important. As long as you guys remember my bday. Perhaps this would be the last time I celebrate with y'all as we won't be seeing each other so often next year. Omg, I'm making this so mushy. Oh well, as long as we still keep in touch then it would still be as fun right? XD
