sarah: loves ph7 & 8linai! 6:03:00 PM

it's been a while. sorry sorry!

for the past one month, i was busy......doing nothing? lol, hols are meant to be like that and i like it that way =D

and u know what? Christmas is coming! my favourite day! And Praise the Lord for all the blessings he showered on my family and my friends and me myself.

And it's dec, oopsie, i mean END of dec. It has been a great year ( yes it has been for me! ) And there's only one thing on my mind now. Start a new life together with God. YAY!! im so filled with joy now i have no idea why. Maybe i have cleared things up perfectly. I have less things to think about now. haha ^^

U know what, my hometown buddies make the bestest buddies in the world! HAHA! these few days i have been laughing alot, thanks to them. And my parent's lame jokes lol. love being at home tho im missing auckie a lil now. Becuz when i was at auckie, i was quite a different person there. A carefree one probably? i.dont.know.

Anyway, i used to like min's kind of relationship. Her relationship with kok how has been going on for four years and still counting! And i reckon their faith has grown together with the age. I have always had a thing for this kind of committed and devoted relationship. Long lasting and yet savouring each and every moments with laughters and arguments. EHH! but at one time this year, i like sying's relationship. Reading at her post writing about her bf and her relationship, i.. suddenly so feel like falling in love again. They're so cute together, less of a sense of devotion and seriousness ( i know they're serious of coz ) but simpler and purer. Both are in love with each other and they look past the flaws. OMG i super like this comfortable feelings! They become part of each other's life.

BUT NOW. I love yijia's. Carefree. Simple life. FREE. No laughters and joys from relationship and love. and yet no cries and heart-broken moments. What she cares is just us =D friends and family. yup yup! i guess im going for this lifestyle. I sorta realized i laugh more often talking to friends and parents. LOL. like an immature kid living in denial hor. But i hate feeling lost, confused and not knowing what's on my mind. thinking what he likes, what he dislikes. driving me nuts!

SO im so looking forward a new year! Im gonnna start a new life =D keke. Like what nigel said, it's much better living in the love of God.

ANYWAY! some pics! just in case u guys been missing me *shy as usual*

HAHAHAHAHAHA!
and guess what?????

We went back to CHWS secondary school today! It's been awesome. except for the fact that we were alll badly bitten by mosquitoes.

More pics coming up!

you know you love me. xoxo. gossip girl. (hehehe currently watching this ;P)

mwah people!

sarah: complicated 11:04:00 PM

was thinking of writing a post about my trip. but 2 things happened and now i cant even put a smile on my face.

Dad came back after his haircut together with a news that shocked me so much that i went blank for a few secs, and when i regained conscious, i kept asking him to show me the news he read.

He passed away,3 days ago. my bestie's dad. He's one great dad, a really great one. Ask anyone who knows him and ull get the same answer. i am so sure. I hope i can do something for him now, i hope my bestie knows how much we care about her, i hope they can get thru this.

Bcoz.. They are so close to each other. The whole family even made a trip to nz to visit this friend of mine. And they always have family trip to overseas. And he loves his daughter so much, so much that i feel touched, i feel blessed for her. Her dad reminds me of my dad, her dad shows how much love a dad can have for his children. and i always respect him.

And he bought me lunch and dinner a few times during finals time just so we can focus on our revision. I really love him! We met again last year and he gave me a notebook. OHhh,did i mention that he's like a santa claus, he used to give us heaps of 'mentos' when he was working at that company and the latest flavour! and after he changed his job, he gave us some other stuff. Sweet of him isnt it?

But he left,out of a sudden. No one knows the reason yet, and no one had the chance to say goodbye to him bcuz he left, just like that, without any sign. just a collapse in a friend's house. and he left forever.

I feel like crying. now i know how unpredictable and fragile a life can be. AND YET.

mom and bro was quarreling just now. I was sitting in the middle and tried to comfort the mother who has tears welled up in her eyes and at the same time, trying to say something that calm my bro down. But i failed miserably, bcuz he left after an awkward silence with the car keys. haih

I wanted to tell him so much that what if one day something bad happens and we wont be able to see each other anymore, will he feel regret for leaving just now! and i super hate seeing my mom being sad. Cuz everyone knows how tough she is and i have the biggest confidence when she says so and hence when she is upset, it means the whole world is collapsing. That's what i feel la.

Dad's trying to calm mom down now, he was lucky cuz he wasnt there when the whole fight toook place, he was having a nap upstairs. i thought of asking him to come down, but i know he's tired after working for the whole day at the shop.

MA DE. i wanna finish my study ASAP. and hopefully i can be so rich. and i can make them healthy and happy. no working no worries.

-end-

May him rest in peace, dear Lord. He's so kind u will love him if u see him in heaven.

and to my bestie. Be strong, ill always be with you. and the other owner of this blog. and all our friends. We love you. smile =) U know u can reach us whenever u need someone. i am really concern about you, stop crying soon. We will miss him always.

love you gal.


1+: sorry for adding sth here gal, but guess what, I was actually planning to write the same post too! =) And yes gal, we're just a call away, I promise I'll try my best to be there for u whenever u need me =) Stay strong.

1+: arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 12:32:00 PM

I'M SO PISSED NOW!!!!!


WTF IS WRONG WITH THIS STUPID CURTIN, "UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY" KONON HOW FUNNY IT IS!



THEY CAN'T EVEN MANAGE A WEBSITE FOR OUR ONLINE ENROLMENT!



Last month before coming back, after my finals I took effort to go to the empty uni to find out whether I could enrol earlier just in case I can't do it online in Malaysia (because mine is special case u all know it). Then the BABI PHARM OFFICE LADY asked me to go to health science building.


Just so u know, health science building is at the other end of uni okay! So fine, I walked there. And another BABI MALAYSIAN HEALTH SCIENCE OFFICE GAL told me that I can certainly do it online in Malaysia, and the enrolment only starts from 8/12 to 12/12. Only Freaking 4 days! Then I kept asking "IFF" I can't do it online, she said THERE'S NO WAY I CAN'T DO IT ONLINE UNLESS I DON'T HAVE INTERNET.



FINE!



so here I'm at home, feeling frustrating with the stupid website named OASIS CURTIN. Streamyx is already slow itself, and the website is even slower to load! I tried on 9th (thanks to Jeng who reminded me gosh I almost forgot about the whole thing) for 20938378476 times I'm NOT KIDDING U KNOW WHY BECAUSE THE ENROLMENT PROCEDURE IS SO STUPID OKAY, EACH UNIT HAS TO GO THRU 4 STEPS, I HAVE 6 UNITS, I HAVE TO CLICK 24 TIMES AND WAITED 324908234873456 HOURS FOR EACH PAGE TO LOAD.



SOMETIMES WHEN I ACCIDENTALLY DC-ED, I'LL HAVE TO START ALL OVER AGAIN.



FINE.



FINALLY WHEN I MANAGED TO GO THRU THE 24 STEPS AND NOW IT TELLS ME THERE'S SOME STUPID ERROR!!!!



THEN I HAVE TO CALL 29384937324 NUMBERS TO GET TO PHARM BUILDING AND ONE LADY TOLD ME THAT I'LL RECEIVE AN EMAIL BY TMR NIGHT (WHICH IS LAST NIGHT) THEN I'LL BE ABLE TO ENROL.



FINE. I WAITED. PATIENTLY.



LAST NIGHT AT 12AM, I RECEIVED NO SHIT OKAY! THEN I THINK OH MAYBE THEY HAVE FIXED IT BUT FORGOT TO INFORM ME SO I TRIED TO ENROL AGAIN, WENT THRU THE STUPID 24STEPS AGAIN, AND THEN I SAW THE BIG RED WORD "ERROR" IN FRONT OF ME.



EFF CURTIN! IF TMR I STILL CAN'T ENROL I'LL HAVE TO PAY EXTRA OKAY!



FINE. I WAITED.



NOW I TRIED AGAIN BUT OBVIOUSLY FAILED. SO I CALLED AGAIN.



AND AS SOON AS THE STUPID OLD LADY PICKED UP, SHE BOMBARDED ME WITH HOW BUSY SHE'S WITH THE ENROLMENT ERROR AND THEN SHE FKING HUNG UP! WITHOUT ME SAYING ANYTHING YET!!!!!!



THEY ARE THE ONE BEING THIS EFFING INEFFICIENT AND NOW SHE'S THROWING TANTRUM TO ME? ARE U KIDDING ME AUNTY?



I DIDN'T EVEN SCOLD U FOR THE INCONVENIENCE U HAVE CAUSED AND NOW U HUNG UP ON ME. CAN U PLEASE GO DIE?


I TOLD U THAT THIS PROBLEM MAY OCCUR BEFORE COMING BACK BUT U DIDN'T EVEN BOTHER TO CHECK AND NOW U HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE SYSTEM AND U TALKED TO ME LIKE A TOTAL BITCH?



I TOT ONLY MALAYSIAN SYSTEM IS THAT INEFFICIENT BUT APPARENTLY CURTIN UNI IS NOT MUCH BETTER.


PLEASE DON'T STUDY IN CURTIN UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY IF U DON'T WANT TO GET HEART ATTACK OKAY! AND ALSO DON'T EVER LET UR KIDS CHOOSE THIS UNI.




btw I called back a few secs after she effing hung up on me, and before she could say anything I started talking and CONTINUE talking although that babi lady was trying to use the same rude tactic again haha. Then I ended with "thanks a lot for being so helpful and efficient", she kinda stunned for a while and said "errr.. thank you" hahahahaha. I won, okay!

1+ the waitress 11:33:00 PM

working in my mom's shop is not as relaxing as I thought.


Although I have been there a couple of times ever since I came back, today's basically the first day I worked for the whole day, from the moment the shop door was open until the very last minute we cleared and cleaned the shop and called it a day. because, one of the worker took a leave today I'm a very obedient and helpful daughter that's all =p


At first I thought it was an easy job as I didn't really see much customers around for the past few visits I had, I even brought my ipod and reader digest to kill my time haha so smart right? And as what I expected, there ain't a single customer for the first hour, my mom was terribly sick so she had some rest in my grandma's house nearby so it was only me.. and an aunty staring into the blank space. Actually it was only her doing that! haha I was happily reading my book and texting.



And the next thing I know, I was very much frightened by "the sudden continuous influx of customers" during lunch time. It was scary T__T Out of the blue everyone came to have lunch here, I took orders, served desserts and drinks, cleaned tables and the worst part is to calculate the bills omg. I'm never good in math, can you imagine I actually asked the customers to pay rm49.30 when the bill is only rm24.20?



And speaking of taking orders, I don't even know what kinda food they have in the kitchen, and whenever people asked for recommendation, I would give a very doink smile and said "everything is nice in this shop!" (but this is true) =.= cannot tahan myself. And I made mistakes in taking orders too! I would miss one bowl of Laksa Terengganu when the customers asked for two. Imagine when I had to take order for 10 teenagers who are constantly changing their mind *smack head*



And trust me, there are so many kinds of people with different variety of weird taste in this world that you can never think of. There was this uncle who actually asked me to add warm water to the red bean soup dessert that he wants, what the? =.=


And I was practically bullied by a kid! The kid came with his dad and his little sister, wanted to have 2 red bean soups and nasi lemak and some other stuff. I served the red bean soup bowl by bowl, thinking that they might spill if I hold two at a time then as soon as I served the first bowl, the father gave that bowl to the little gal. The 5-year-old boy was obviously super beh syok so he looked at me with so much hatred and said "WHY CAN'T YOU JUST SERVE TWO TOGETHER? YOU CAN'T TAKE TWO ISSIT?!" and you know what, this ego arrogant 1+ apologised and ran back to the kitchen immediately to get what he wants T___T AND (yes I haven't done telling story yet) when I served his nasi lemak, he pointed at the sambal sauce and screamed, at the top of his lungs, "I SAID I DON'T WANT CHILLI ALREADY WHY YOU STILL GIVE ME CHILLI HOW YOU TAKE ORDERS I DON'T WANT CHILLI!!!!" It was the father who calmed him down by saying he could take the sambal away. Why la my life is this pathetic? T___T



Somemore there was this weird uncle.. which I suspect he has some mental problem, stood in front of the counter and stared at me until I could feel goosebumps all over me. No, I'm not discriminating mentally-ill people but he seriously freaked me out! It was my fault also la when he walked in, I passed him the menu and since then he kept following me wherever I went. The last thing he did that I finally couldn't take it is when he asked where I live, with a smile. And I replied "oh this is my mom's shop" I don't even know why haha and he seemed to find the answer perfectly fine hahahaha.



There was a group of chws students came to have lunch after practicing pancaragam (brass band), based on their sweaty uniform =p They make me miss my secondary school life so so so much! =3 the usual gathering aka yumchar after some school activities, the noise and chaos in class, the discussion about handsome seniors =3 ahh the good old dayssss =))


sorry no photos for this post I was ultra busy today okay didn't even have time to reply text! but sying did take a few photos of this shop using her dslr to show me when I was still in perth, how sweet of her =3 I might post them up in my next post, or not.



my conclusion is.. it's really fun but tiring as well. I was dead tired and my whole body was so smelly and sticky after the 4 hours of war. I was quite surprised that the aunty is way more organised and calm than me hmm. And everyone loves bubur cha cha!!!! *bubur chacha glittering at the background* Basically every customer would order at least one bowl of bubur cha cha, and there's no doubt why it's this popular because it's so damn nice and cheap!



Okay okay, conclusion is I needa go to bed now, 'cause I've promised Lian that I'm going to have grilled/fried squid with them and watch Monsoon Cup after that tee hee such a nice plan. My cousin said I'm excited about my first day because I'm jakun like that =.= and because I've never worked in my entire life before so I found this fun wth.


sorry for the wordy post heh. I'll miss you Sarah if you happen to be stranded in Thailand hahahaha *TOUCH WOOD*



edit: I almost forgot to mention this. This morning I received a tragic news from my parents, a person whom I know but only met once, passed away in a car accident in Besut last night. Life is so fragile and unpredictable le sigh. I met him once when I was planning to get into Matrikulasi Pahang and he was a senior, which means he's only 22 this year. He's studying med in a local uni.

Sometimes I wonder why do we even need to love and care for a person and then see him/her leave, when you are not even mentally and emotionally prepared for it? I always believe that there's a reason behind everything, but I can't really comprehend the rationale of this incident. Imagine the excruciating pain the parents have to bear. Maybe that's why it's important to stay alert and play safe on the road. May him rest in peace. And heaven really does exist, I'm sure he'll be there =)

pms sucks 1:26:00 PM

i am amazed by her courage. always.
She speaks out,she stands up for her family her friends and now, her lurve.

She told me once, do what you want, before you feel regret not doing it. just like her erke, they both have the passion and faith in a person they chose. regardless the barriers, the differences and the difficulties.

God knows how envious i am to those who have the courage to do whatever they want, i have been trying. mustering courage. building confidence. heightening my faith. and yet it seems i can never be like them, i can never be one.

Too much worries overwhelmed me. Everytime i come up with a slight 'unique' or i rather say different opinion, i shiver i stutter until someone come next to me and pull me down tearing my dream apart,a dream that is not even complete to start with.. and that's when i give up, once again. despite i really wanted a try.


I really want to. but i never manage to. Because i dont live for myself. i live for others. others whom i love, much more than i do to myself. At this moment, i do not know if this is right. i do not know if im happy. but nevertheless this is what i have chosen, so i must not regret.


miss poh, congratz! =D xoxo



ps: sueyen i wanna go boston because my pms here is bothering me so much. =(
