Ms Ratha and Hui Yi are in town!

cyn, sam, me, bruno, faisal, yvonne, hui yi & ms ratha

 Belated entry. No idea when will we get to meet Ms Ratha.
 She's like a mother to us.
When a teacher sincerely cares, even the most naughty/quiet student will cherish her.

bilin, ostrich rolls, sugar cane chicken, seafood soup, grilled lamb

 haven't dine at Bla Bla Bla since 2009 christmas. The place changed, expanded to two floors.  Another new pond and the seating arrangements were changed to accommodate more diners.  We are all changing too; from walking past this restaurant at a younger age without $ to indulge, to going with special friends, to sister's convocation dinner, to bringing 'overseas' friends ... and maybe, the next time, to foot the bill for expanded family XD

love the sand, the wind...n the girl! :P

recently upgraded: infinity swimming pool.

 met Uncle David here. A humble and hardworking child of God.

spaghetti bolognese, thai soup n sam, did u order lamb/chicken chop?

kesimpulannya, these are the among the few close friends i met throughout the 6 years TESL course. We'll be going to different schools, may our wish to be posted near home come true.  Do come again, Hui Yi, and bring your other half along.  Thanks to Yvonne and Cynthia for driving us around Kuching - hometown is always one of the best place in the world~! :)

Practicing mother tongue. Lolx.

很久没写华语了，昨晚看了Mandarin Battle，哇靠！现在的小学生怎么那么聪明有才华啊？我的华语真的生锈了，十题名句精华，格言，谚语， 我才答对三题， 可悲！

最近心情还挺风波的，是时候调整心情，笑一个！

MaDeup Tutorial

Have you ever feel ugly? How many of us are willing to upload our not-so-pretty pictures/videos? Out of boredom, my buddy decided to paint my tired-looking face. This is her work:

Aftermath,

Due to impulse, on the last day at JB, Creative's hair stylist cut my hair way too short that I swear Yvonne can hear me crying in my heart. To console me, my makeup artist-buddy-cum-photographer produced her 2nd work:

medium/long suits me more?

or short?

scribblings of thought

it has been exactly one week since I came back from Johor Bahru.  What have i done?

Gawai visiting? Nope.

Beach? Nope.

Mountain climbing? Nearly, but nope.

Badminton? YES! with 4 old time buddies: Robin, Kei, Owen & YLip.  No gurls :(

Weddings? Just witnessed another beautiful church wedding, of Alvin Ho and Adeline.  It was held at St Joseph's. 

Yam Cha? Oh yes, Sunny Hill Ice Cream with Ted.  Arts Meal with Alex.  Novus Cafe with another 10 secondary school mates.  Rock road seafood, kolo mee, pizza hut and kfc with Andrew, Hong Kong Noodle House with Yvonne, Adeline and Alex, Delize with Yvonne, Andrew, Cynthia and her bf, Gilbert~! Nice meeting him, Cyn :)

Cambridge? Yes, thankfully it's Gawai so there are few opportunities to meet as adorable as 7 years old and as wise as 60 years olds. Haha~

Movies? Yeap, re-watched Pirates 4, and dozed off, in cozy arms :P Kung Fu Panda 2! Oh, *smiling now while recalling back the innocent baby Po* (^_^)

Blogging? Nah, have been very lazy.  If not for now that i'm home alone, practically killing time. Haha.

What should i do  next week? Ah...i wanna get a job! not solely for $$, but i'm just bei-sit-tiam. Haha.

Activities in mind:
1.  gym
2. piano
3. reading
4. baking
5. florist?
6. swimming
7.

16 May 2011 \(^_^)/

A dream came true~

 16 May 2011 marks my 24th birthday and 1st time celebrating Teacher's Day.  I had a super awesome time.  It must be the hundred wishes from friends and family~! *wink wink*

Birthday present from Andrew. 

 We had a fun and memorable telematch with coursemates at IPG KTI's field.  I don't like the dodgeball because I'm not good at dodging and it's painful when the ball hit me.  But, I truly enjoyed the water ball.  Anything connected with water is fun, to me.  That's why I plan to wear this flower printed dress to Perhentian Island next week~!  (^_^)

Yvonne, thanks for making my 24th so special!

 They say one can have many friends; but when it comes to true friend, I can barely name a few, but proudly name - Yvonne Ling Soon Chiin.  Muacks~ (^_^)

Birthday cake from Andrew.  Thanks darling~\
Very happy many of my coursemates turned up for my birthday dinner, unexpectedly.  Let me recall and name them here: Cain, Cynthia, Sam, Hui Yi, Yvoone, Hui Nee, Bruno, Saiful, Ed, Sean, Ah Boy, Sche, Azhar, Fahmi, Fadzuan, Kamarul..  May you all be GREAT teachers~

from L-R:Miss Ho :), Mentor Mdm Jaya, Partner Efa, Annusha

thanks for the cute bear dear Hazira~

 Hazira is one of my top scorer in Form 4 KP 2.  An active lady who can be emotional at times, girls wad. haha. she's the first girl to request a kiss, n i gave, n she returned. :)

Xin Tian & Mei Ting

 Two lovely girls from Form 1 KS.  I am going to miss you girls so much! Mei Ting, thanks for the dolphin, i'll place it on my teacher's table :)

Efa's Form 4 Sc 2 boys

met many of MU supporters today :P

Rock & Roll boys band~

Teacher's Day lunch at Seoul Garden, KSL 

efa managed to go for 3-4 rounds, so worth for buffet. sadly, i can't finish my first round.

Roses from Andrew :)

 Yvonne and Haslina popped in Seoul Garden with this!! i was shocked to see this.  teachers watched me, and i think my mentor caught my watery eyes when i read darling's note. Ah...thank you darling, you made my 24th birthday so memorable. i love the roses and my heart leap with joy when i received it. However, it is dying now, hung on my window.  conclusion, don't spend so much on bouquet of roses next time.  One, will do :)

12 roses - Be my steady.

Next year, i will be able to celebrate my birthday with darling, family and friends~ Yay, can't wait to graduate.  Principal advised me to keep up my enthusiasm like now and be a great teacher that inspire the students.  Thank you my dear friends for making my birthday so special, all Glory to our Almighty God :)

we are family

One more week, and I'll be leaving SMK Taman Mount Austin. Two more weeks, and I'll be leaving Full Gospel Church and the awesome CG members.

From Left to Right: J'shua, a spirit-filled pastry chef~
Boon Fei, young at heart pastor
Angela, active cell group leader, wife to boon fei
Hui Fang, cool and adorable young lady
Ivan, fast n furious car lover
serene, successful business woman
jia yi, vocalist & piano teacher

Right now, i'm in a dilemma to head home straight after practicum or explore West Malaysia till 11th June, my accidentally purchased air ticket.  Knowing myself, I would gladly choose vacation.  But, I do not have my own transport (that is why i am stuck alone at home now while my other 3 roommates are out dating), it will be less enjoyable to take bus rides alone (Yvonne, what says you?)

RM 500-600 to buy a new ticket for end of May.  Dad wants me to go home, saying i'll spend more if i stayed till 11th June. But, for RM600, i can go to Terengganu, maybe Langkawi or even cross the border line into Bangkok!  Phuket, I've never been there!

Ida came to bring me out for early birthday celebration :)  Hope our dreams will come true XD

Brother Desmond is off to Bali today.  He shared his diving trips to Phuket and that was where he took his advance diving certificate. Ah...when my dream to dive come true?

We are family~  

Kahlua :)

"Reflections - emotional and narrative."

"Poor classroom control.  You are too kind to your students and I didn't see any form of punishment."

"Sendiri syok -other groups talk when you present their Mother's Day Card."

How can I screw up my final major observation?  Why had my beloved Form 1 KS been exceptionally hyper today? Allowed myself a good outburst and decided to just photocopy exercises for tomorrow's Final Minor Observation.  

What will this lazy action lead to? More failures? 

- preparing for Alpha and Philippine Cuisine, and perhaps few Kahlua shots before Good Friday ends~!
