The final day of 2011

(click on the highlighted words to refer to older post so you know what I'm crapping. ^_^)

I guess there will be hundreds of post summing up their 2011 year. I thought of doing so as well. However, there seems to be too many things that had happened that make it difficult for me to write a summary. Therefore, I decided to left things simple and talk about some random events.

I had spent a large part of 2011 being abroad. Mostly in UK which I must say, I enjoy it very much. I still miss the UK student life now. It had been great fun. I had experience many many many stuff and it's great memory. Besides that, before coming back to Malaysia, I had been travelling Europe (4 countries) for about 20 days which also taught me many lessons. (To-be-blog-about-post-in-year-2012) When I'm home, I felt so comfortable. Being around so many family members is a blessing. Although I miss UK a lot, I miss home more. Where my family is, there's my home.

Many people ask me the exact same question as if they can't grasp the obvious fact.

"Why do you come back? Why don't you stay at UK for job?"

Aren't that a silly question to ask me?

I can't bear to be away from my family. Being abroad for job means that I can only back about once a year. (I'm not rich) Why do people choose to be away from their family IF THEY CAN AVOID IT? I always don't understand. I know the bond between family members are mutual. But being away from them a year, two, five, ten or MORE... you wouldn't even recognise any of them. For example, my cousin brother who had been abroad for about 10 years +.. I can't even recognise him anymore. He did not come back every year.. and he is RICH! >_<"" Sad case.

Ok.. enough.

For my graduation, I was back to UK with my parents. It should be an enjoyable experience minus all the small small mishaps. Anyway, it is a good memory to preserve.

During Christmas eve I spent it for the first time BBQ-ing with my dear friends. It is fun and warm. They are the best. And when I reach home at midnight, I got another great surprise. It was so unexpected that I was SOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My dad bought me the CarloRino bag that I had wanted soooo much. I had been thinking of saving for it and since it is new arrival, I'm thinking of waiting a few months until it goes on sale. Oh dear.. I love my family... (Why be away from these great people?  ^^)

My fairytaile

I love it! ^_^

Today is the last day of 2011. It had been a fulfilling year. I really hope 2012 will be another great one. With many good lucks on my new job. I'm very nervous as it neared the starting of the term. xD

So, there's all for the post. The next post should be dated 2012 already. So soon. Oh.. and the predicted end of the world. Is that true?  xD

HAPPY 2012 EVERYONE!!!

BEST OF LUCK AHEAD!!!

MAY IT NOT BE THE END OF WORLD!!!

CHEERS!!!

Merry Christmas!

Christmas Day is coming soon. I guess everyone had their wishlist ready. Some may already handed them out. xD (Like me. xD)

And I do realised something.

When I a kid, I don't remember a lot about celebratin Christmas. It's not a big tradition at home as we are not Christian. I think my parents do bring us out to snap photos of the beautiful christmas decorations and etc. But I really don't remember getting Christmas presents. Haha..

When I grew older, during my highschool years, I started to enjoy the festive season. As I began to understand more things, I started to drag my family to go for some celebration or whatsoever. Maybe a dinner or just go shop around for Christmas stuff. Maybe using Christmas present as an excuse to get something I want as well. But that's not so much of fuss still.

Up till I'm at college, and mix around with more people who really do celebrate Christmas, I tend to get suck into the mood as well. As I'm at college, I get more freedom, I get to go shopping with friends (mind you, I can't go out without adults during my school days.. xD) alone, which means I was able to prepare surprises for my family. I started to buy some little gifts for each of my family members. I started to pester my mom into buying a little tree to decorate at home. That's when my home, officially do, celebrate Christmas. We started to think of what gifts to get each other, what stuff to write down on our wishlist and pass it to our parents. However, most of the Christmas, I spend them with my family, either at home (doing nothing) or out shopping.

This year though, should be different. I say SHOULD because it had not happened. This year will be the 1st time I celebrate Christmas eve with my friends. My dear dear friends whom we had stuck together eversince our foundation year. Which means.. 2006.. ohh.... the 6th year already..going into 7th in January. Time flies.

So, as I was saying, I realised something.

When we are kids, the gift we wants mostly are toys. I do pester my mom into buying all sort of masak-masak equipments, barbie doll, polly pocket, plushies, stickets, sweets..etc.

When I'm in my schooling days, nothing much changes. I still adore my toys though I don't pester my parents to get them much. (Much.. xD) Maybe some dolls. I also started to want some gadgets such as mp3.

During college years, I tend to only wish for gadgets. Such as a new camera, a new phone, a new iPod, a new laptop, etc. And guilty to say, most of the time I do get them. xDDD

Now, I've started venturing into the adult world, the working world, the REALITY.

I stop asking for gadgets from my parents. (I still want them though..) I do not feel appropriate asking for things after I stop studying. It's just not that right isn't it. However, I still don't have my own savings yet since I did not really work for long. Therefore, as asking for things isn't right, I use the other way. I often discuss at home what kind of model of camera, phone, laptop is better. Why is it better. How much is the price. And then saying aloud that I'm thinking of getting them. With the little savings I have. Obviously, daddy will object to me using my little saving to buy them. And most of the time, he will get it for me. I love you Daddy.

However, I AM REALLY SERIOUS ON SAYING THAT I WANT TO BUY IT WITH MY MONEY. Haha... xDD


It's just that I realised our 'wants' become more expansive as we grow. It need more and more to feed our greedy heart. The world do change. When I'm kid, I wanted just masak-masak toys. But today kids, wanted an iPad2 for Christmas.

Alright..enough of my rants.

Here's one of the little Christmas scene I did.

Merry Christmas everyone!!! 

Ho Ho Ho!  

十一月十九号。。。

Yep! Today is the 19th day of the 11th month of the lunar calender. (Chinese calender) And today is my birthday. Chinese birthday to be exact. ^_^ Happy Birthday to me.

Oh, and if I'm not wrong, today is also 送子观音 'day'. Meaningful right? xD

If I choose to celebrate my birthday according to the chinese calender, then my birthday will falls at the end of the year instead of the beginning of the year. Haha.. However... I will be a year old then.

Oh.. And I'm a little Rabbit. ^^



Btw, I will be starting a new job in 2 days time. Thursday, 15th of Dec 2011 will be another brand new start. Really hope everything will go smoothly. I'm really nervous on this new job. Never tried to do something like this before. However, I'm kind of excited, mixed with worries. People keeps telling me not to worry. That I think too much. Am I really?

New. Fast.

Announcement!

I am now officially employed! I will be starting my new job on the 15th which is 1 week from today. Fast. Not really sure whether I'm ready or not. New environment (well, not exactly that new) and new experience.

Need to act maturely and sensibly and responsibly from 15th onwards. New to crawl out from my little shell and open up to people. Cannot continue to hide inside anymore.

I hope I'm up to it.

Cheers..

(Oh, btw.. this is already the 301st post. Time flies)

Excited + Scared + Worried = Nervous Breakdown

Ok..So tomorrow is the day for the interview. I'm having some very very very nervous mood these few days and in order to relax myself, I choose to ignore it. Until the very last minute. So now. What do I wear? How do I make my hair? What should I speak? How should my presentation go? How???!!!!

Scare scare scare scare scare.

And it does not help that knowing I'm not fully prepare for it.

Am I really ready for the challenge?!

Wish me luck guys.

Colours

I just love the colours of the pie chart.

Just log in to Nuffnang and check my analysis. Found this pie chart with the colourful segments.. Tell myself I just have to blog about this.. 



Don't it remind you of some rainbow or what? I'm curious. 

Does colours affect your mood? Do you dress according to your mood? As if, when you are happy, you choose something bright and colourful and if you are moody, you choose something dark?

Or do you do the opposite?

Choosing bright colours to brighten your mood when you are moody?

Hmm.. I wonder... 

I'm officially a Master

Graduation Ceremony

Recently, I went back to UK with my parents for my graduation ceremony. It is really something to remember and another big event for me. I'm finally a postgraduate graduate. If that exist. Anyway, here's some photos to remember that day. ^_^

Got my cert. It's exactly the same as my degree except it now write MASTER instead. 

(Mind you..the wind is so strong it nearly blew my cert away.. T_T) 

And this time, I remember to throw my mortar. ^_^ 

I love you

I know I had been neglecting this blog ever since I'm back at Malaysia. It's not that there's nothing to share but I just don't feel like blogging. Laziness overtook me. Give me some time. This blog is not dead. Not yet anyway. ^_^

For those that keep checking for updates, please accept my apologies. xD  Really appreciate it that you take the time to check on me. I'm touched. Can you see the tears brimming on my eyes? No? Well, it must be your eyes then.. Go check them.. :P

Anyway, will update VERY REALLY DAMN soon.. Believe me.

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

In the meantime, why not check out my new blog?

No, it will not take over this blog.

That one is for my fantasy and imagination to run wild.
