foreveraloneness

I have so many things in my mind to write it out. Starting from my own opinion towards the video featuring KFC worker fought with customer, valentine day, my happiest moments, the departure of bf to UK. But I have so little time to write it out. I was busy before bf depausrting. Had heavy classes and test and so little time left for both of us. And now, a week after he departed, I am by with my study stuff. Tension is already in the air. Tests are here and there, not to mention the assignments too. But still it is so hard to get the nerd mode of mine turned on. Haih. This will be another hard sem for me.

I had so many things to write out, but I won't cramp all in here. Lets go by one post to another post. Easier for me to write, easier for you to read lol. And ignore KFC la. Don't think I am going to write about it. The issue is already out of the topic LOL

Now I will have something erm erm that related to Valentine, I guess. Not my valentine, not about how is my valentine celebration, what is my valentine present, no. That, will be at the next post :p I guess. Or there is no post for it, because nothing special happened, really. I know I am a bit late for Valentine related post la. Okay, very late but I am busy! This time I am not lazy, I am really busy LOL >.<

So when Valentine, my Facebook page is flooded with a lot of stuff. Couple posted sweet love message to one they love. Girls, especially posted what they received for Valentine. It is normal, who doesn't like show off with their own pretty stuff and happy life? I like to show off with my new toy too, no big deal. I found them lovely and sweet and perhaps a little too cheesy for those who over-doing it but I am still fine with them.

But still I found very irritating things on my Facebook on the very lovely day. The most annoying thing  are something like this..

..and other gag comic that is similar to this. Forever alone on Valentine day. 

I don't understand why. Most of my Facebook friends are only 20++. First, why you wanna sad if you are single on Valentine day? You are only 20++. Enjoy! Go out there, mix with boys and girls. Single is the best. Enjoy now while you are single. When you start to date, it all changes, even how open-minded your partner is. The commitment as people's girlfriend or boyfriend will be there. Plus you are not single at age of 30 or 40 right? If you are single at that age, yes, please keep whining about forever alone until you get yourself a partner. But if you are only 20++, puh, please. You are too young for commitment. Go enjoy =)

Plus, I don't understand why people nowadays thinks that Valentine is only for couple. I remembered when I was in primary school, I really thought Valentine is for couples, until my teacher taught me that Valentine is not only for dating couple. It is for the family members as well. It is for everyone you loved. It is a day where you spread the love. You don't love your mum, your dad, your sisters or brothers that grew up with you? So, if you are not an orphan, why whining about forever alone on Valentine? You have your family, your friends, the one you loved aside than your future boyfriend or girlfriend. So, forever alone? Think again. You forever alone celebrating Valentine at your university or your mum is the one forever alone in the home waiting for her daughter or son to call her because she missed you so much.

This is funny in a way. But to eat with your mother when Valentine is not funny at all. If you call to your mum on 14/2 to tell her, "Ma, happy valentine day. I love you", can you imagine how happy is she? All the way along, I know when people mention about Valentine day, they will think about loving couples. But you can be the different one. Even my mum, I remembered that she was in shock when I first wished her valentine day. I still remembered that she questioned me about how Valentine is for couples but yet, over the phone, I can still hear her happy voice. Yeah, extra bonus if you are in a relationship and still you remember to call your mum and wish her valentine.

This is not forever alone. I hope my dad wishes me valentine too. Damn he doesn't even remember my birthday. But I guess it is fair enough as he doesn't remembered mum's birthday too. And the quote of "The best way to remember your girl's birthday is by forgetting it once" is fake one. My dad is still safe and sound till now LOL

Spend valentine with your friends will not make you all together alone. You don't love your friends? You all will have happy time together. My friends for example, they celebrated valentine day together last 2 years. Most of the girls in the group are single. There is also one is already attached. So? Still can have fun time together with friends right? I was whining a lot when they left me out in the outing. They thought that I was busy with my bf but I was doing nothing in my room at the Valentine night actually.

Still think that you are forever alone? Nvm, pictures down there are for you. Scroll down =)

Yeah. Who cares about the stupid date when you can just at home and eat cereal. When you go out, you see couple here and there, which remind u more that you are forever alone. When you go restaurant, the meals on promotion is for couple! And you are going alone. So, just stay home. And..

..ahahaha.. the f*** word may spoil my blog but I think it is super cute and true. If you still think that valentine is for couple and you are forever alone, just f*** it. It is another Tuesday anyway haha.. =)

For me, honestly, I think Valentine is just another ordinary day. I don't really care about celebration like this. But since people created the festival, and so many couples are celebrating it, so I just went along with the culture. LOL And since people created it as a day where you spread your love, I really think people shall not spoil it with the foreveraloneness. Except if you are orphan and you really have no one. It shall be the happy day. You don't happy seeing love is all in the air? =)

Valentine supposed to be a day where you spread the love. Be happy =) 
This is not me. She is one of my besties. Since the post is related to Valentine, so I might just post a picture related to it. A love for you all =) 
Sher, I know I didn't ask for your permission ahead for this. I can remove it down if you are not happy with it =)

p/s : I had been thinking and thinking on whether to post this up or not. It is more to my personal opinion towards the foreveralone vs valentine. It may offend people who posted about their foreveralone during Valentine but people, you have your own reason and opinion to post about your foreveralone and I had my own reasoning about my dislike towards the foreveralone thingy during Valentine. People do have different mindset and opinions ya. And for the 9GAG comic, don't be offended too. I like 9gag, it brings so much happiness and laughter to me whenever I browse my Facebook. They are all cute but it is just the foreveraloneness that I did not favor.
No harsh feeling, cheers =)

sweetest valentine gift

Diamond? I don't have the elegance to wear your 2k diamond ring. Flowers? They will wilt within days and then I will have troubles thinking whether to keep your flowers or just to throw it away. Chocolate? It will be in my tummy in matters of minutes.

Sweetest valentine gift is not about the price tag on the gift. Price tag - it is only the money you needed. Sweetest valentine gift ever is all about when I see your gift, I can see the effort that you put in, the all sort of troubles you went through to make it perfect, make it presentable just for me =)


Came across the sweetest valentine gift ever at Facebook. Yes, a couple photo-book. A book full of love story. It belongs to one of the besties of mine. Her bf is in the photography field and they always have the memories frozen up in the form of pictures. And for the 2012's Valentine, the sweet bf took out all the memories and present them in the photo-book that can be kept forever. 

Doink, I am happy for you too. Can imagine if you tear up while flipping the book page by page, where each page consist of the memories created by just you and him =)

Frame in frame =)
Now I write this in smaller font because I don't want to spoil the mood :p Doink, now you make me want to get an instant camera for nothing!

For all the couple out there, especially for the star of my post, Doink and bf, Happy Valentine Day =) May your relationship last forever and ever. I am waiting to receive wedding invitation! :p

p/s : I knew Valentine was over looooonnng time ago. But still I wanted to post this. I like it so much. I think it is the greatest gift ever. But it didn't happen to me, I am not the one receiving photo-book so it is hard to me to get the right words and terms to write the whole post out. I had been composing and editing the post again and again to get the whole thing right, and at the end, I knew this is not the best but meh, forget about it. I posted it because a photo-book is a thing that I liked and I will appreciate, and I am so happy for my bestie so I just wanted to share to the world! =D

Below onwards will make me like a spokeperson for Groupon but meh, I found something I think is good and I just wanna share it =) And I posted it down here because it is quite related to the content up there. We all knew Groupon offer great deals and bla bla bla and I saw this 2 days before!

It is an offer for photo-book ! RM69 instead of RM188! You may design your own layout too, I guess. Which I think it is ultra good! Your own customized and personalized photo-book! 101 in the world! 
A turn off to all of you : I saw this 2 days ago and I am not sure if they still have this deal. At Groupon, you have to buy a deal before specific time. So.. Go check out yourself la har.. 

When I first saw this, I knew that I had to get it. I loooovvveee photo-book. And scrap-book. And the character in it shall be my bf and me! But he hates camera a lot. He doesn't take pictures. I would not get enough pictures of me and him to paste on the photo-book. So I forget about him. I think of someone else. The second person came to my mind is my mum. ...... Awkward to have photo-book featuring you and mum yeah. Nvm, I will think of someone else. My besties! Omg they love pictures a lot and we had tons of pictures taken from young till now. They shall be the perfect choice! We will have a friendship theme photo-book! And the book will be designed with all the girly girly stuff. Pink cover, designed with love heart pattern, butterfly pattern and oh maybe one or two hello kitty logo over there. Yes! But then I realized that there is only one photo-book, and there are so many of us. T__T Who is going to keep it? Thus, I just give up on having the photo-book. T__T And then, I decided that I shall get the prettiest ever photo-book for my partner and myself when I get married :p which I will still have looonnng way to go >.<

the dragon year 2012

So now I am to blog about Chinese New Year after everyone else are done with it. What to do as I am always lazy busy! And I had to admit that the Chinese New Year celebration for this year is not as happening as last year. I really enjoyed my 2011 CNY but for this year, something is missing from it. Great celebration with the one I loved but still... Perhaps it is the time factor that lead to the 'missing'. It was a little bit too early for the CNY 2012 as it happened only two weeks after the sem started. I was not even feel the tension from study and yet, it was already CNY. All play along the starting of the year. Which is not a good thing at all. So now lets get started with my CNY celebration. Don't really think it will be in details because I had super poor memory that I could not really recall when each event happened. Plus it was not so fun, so I am kind of unmotivated to blog much about it. But there will be lotsa picture for this CNY =)
Warning : There will be a lot of random photos in this post

15th January
Dinner plus first lou sang of the year with university friends. It serves as gathering also farewell for bf.

Group picture

19th January
4 days before CNY. Stact Club and Lion Dance Club organized a night to celebrate CNY. Was invited to join the event. Event was held in two parts where one part is only watching the performances in the hall and the other part was to have dinner in the hall while watching performances. Mine is obviously having dinner while watching performances woot! Ticket for that will cost RM35 but I got it for free! Yay! Sorry Ryan to tell that the food served is crappy :( but I swear the performances are gorgeous!

Friends that sat a table with me. 

22nd January
CNY eve. As usual, my family had reunion dinner at uncle's house. The reunion dinner tradition still goes on even after grandma passed away.

The dishes. 

23th January
First day of CNY + youngest brother birthday! Bought nothing for him as in deep red :p What! That is the end of the month! So normal to be in deep red at the date okay! But still, jie jie loves you! =D

A photo of me and my handsome brother! Happy birthday!!

Visited Jimui Jianqin's and Lingkhee's house at the day. Visited only two houses because their house is freaking far! 45min drive from my place! Lucky it is not me to drive LOL

The driver and co-driver for the day LOL

Jimui Jianqin. Super love her Superman tee. I want one too T__T

Lingkhee. Upload this photo because my legs look so slim and loooooonnnng here. Thanks Thatcher for snapping this good picture of me! And then I requested Thatcher to snap another photo of me, alone, showing off my 'slim' and 'long' legs.. 

..which the picture is not as nice as the top one. And my eye bags ruined the picture!

Group picture of the day 

Random picture of the day :

Jesz's heels. So pretty, me want T__T Imma going Charles & Keith later. There is never too much of shoes heels for a girl!

24th February
Second day of CNY. This is the day when the official house visiting tradition started. Girls, this is the 10th years we had this house visiting tradition. We started it since 13 years old and maintained it every single year. It is a kind of celebration we created for ourself. I so hope that we had the group pictures from year to year. It will be great memory to be recalled on in the future. And now we are all 22. Happy 10th anniversary to our house visiting tradition =)

No group photo taken on the day, I guess. So this is the picture with most of the girls in :/

Here comes the very-random random pictures :p

This adorable baby attracts attention of the girls in my house. She is my niece. Super cute yet superb in crying! Which make her even more adorable!

 I have no idea wth is this. Brought in by my aunt because she said no one in her house to feed this little thing.

My favourite in Ivy's house. Ivy's house served the yummy-est serving each year. She serves roti jala, satay, chicken curry and all sort of 1Malaysia food but this is my all time favourite! I <3 multi layer jelly! And to think that I actually finished the whole plate >.<

Dear CCT always served us Yakult but this year is different where she serves Vitagen! Childhood favourite drink!

Attraction in Alex's house. Her name is Miko =)

When it is time to visit Jesz's house, it is always the ice-cream time! Yup, her house serves us ice-cream every single year.

We don't always get to visit Man's house but this year she could make it. And this cute cookies are from her house! 

When I reached house after the tiring day, my house was already 'attacked' by all my relatives =.= Very merry and yet very messy. That's what happened if you gather 40+ people in a small house!

Fireworks show are all around Sempalit, like they are all FOC.

A picture of my mum and me while we are watching fireworks outside the house. Felt so guilty for having such little pictures with mum while I had tons of photos of very random stuff in my phone T__T Seems like the very random stuff are more important than my mum. Which is actually not. 

And so at the night, we gathered again at Symone's house to gamble gamble.

Gamble. Me is the one sitting so unlady like, back facing the camera :/

When gamble time is over, it is the time to play card where the loser drink. And the drink on the table? It is Chivas.

Despite of my low level of tolerance towards alcohol, Chivas is my most favorite alcohol. I love drinking it with portion of 1:infinity parts of Coke! It enhances the taste of the Coke! Super love! Lose twice only so amount of Chivas I drank is only like two sips plus big part of Coke. LOL 

25th January
No activity at the day. Dinner plus lou sang with Jimuis at the night plus gamble at Steven's house. Won RM1 LOL

Yu shang

26th January
Gamble (again) at Shereen's house but this time I am not joining

28th January
Sixth day of CNY. Mummy started to work, so I had to help her T__T And because of that I missed the house visiting session to Kyle's house. Super T________T His house is not near at all, and I don't know to route there so I can't go visit him the other time. Well, have to wait till the next year T__T

开工大吉!Camho at the first day of working :p

Picture when friends visited Kyle's house. I was supposed to be in the picture, haih T__T

Mom was craving for yu shang so we went to buy after work.

I didn't know that yu shang can be taken away. Other family members actually don't really love yu shang so only mum and me eating it. Gain kilos liao T__T

26th January
Get back to Inti. No more CNY liao T__T

Went to have CNY dinner with my family, aunt's family and bf at Restaurant Kim Leng Raub. The dinner was held to lou sang together and as a farewell dinner for my bf. Our family did not have lou sang tradition so this is the first time we lou sang together with aunt's family.


A picture with mum <3

6th February
Last day of CNY. I was glad that I could be at home with family at the first day and last day of CNY. It didn't happen all the year and this year I could make it. At this very last day of CNY, we had 'nian gao'. It had a meaning to eat nian gao during CNY but I forgot :p Nvm, since we get all our nian gao for free, lets just have it =)

Nian gao. Favourite during CNY =)

Besides, bf and me release lantern (hung ming lantern) to the sky with our wishes written on it.

My wishes remain simple and same. Everyone that I loved, be happy and healthy every single day! My first attempt to write in Chinese. Yeah, don't mind the writing >.<

This year I am a little greedy. I added in another wish. Everything goes smoothly. Hope I get whatever I want. But still I will be a good child to add in hard work and effort to get whatever I want. Just be nice on me and make the things easier :p

I love taking photos! Me while releasing the lantern! <3

So now I am back to university. CNY was over, time to sweep the holiday and all-day-playing mood away and gain back my nerdy mood. Glad to have another great year with great people in my life. Western's new year was over and Chinese's new year was over. Time to back to the reality and work hard for everything I had wished for. On the road towards my new year resolutions and a better me! =)
