Feeling low

The moment I opened my eyes this morning, I had this sudden feeling of sadness. As usual, I don't know how to describe what I feel. Because sadness is a little too strong, maybe? I just feel this heavy rock pressing down on me, refusing to let me even catch my breath. I think I know why I'm feeling this way.

Last night was Ur last night being in Penang & I suddenly thought we kind of wasted so much time bickering instead of catching up with 1 another properly. We always never take each other seriously though both of us know that we're friends to each other. But yesterday night was different. As we had that conversation, I realised I have not been how a good friend should have been. This time, U listen as I speak & U don't tease/insult me like U used to. U said U are not sure when U'll be back & I felt for U as U shared Ur thoughts with me. I couldn't do/say anything that would make everything right because I know I'm not in control of the situation. U are a nice person, U really are & I am glad to have known U even though U annoy the hell out of me to no end (sometimes)!

Ironic, isn't it? How I got to know U & now we can talk about anything. *sigh* So U've left this morning. Then next week, it would be R's turn to go. Life is always filled with separations & I don't think I'll ever get used to them. Many a times I thought I'd never cry but I guess I never really knew myself. I've become too sentimental, too emotional. In the year 2008, I've cried many times over dunno-what reasons. But everytime after that, I'd feel a LOT better. I still need to learn to accept the fact that everything in life is not always permanent & that people come & go in our lives.

This year would be different, I'm sure of it! 2 of my friends would be going to Adelaide, which means I won't be lonely anymore! Then in June, another friend, W, would be going over too! Double weeee!! =D I should be looking on the bright side eh?

XOXO,
Me

3rd day of CNY

WARNING: The following post is about girl stuff, not suitable for guys. If you still wanna proceed, go ahead...don't say I didn't warn you.

Everything was good when I woke up...breakfast-internet-youtube-walk around the house, as usual, until...I sat down again to chat with GF. While chatting, I felt this really weird sensation around my lower abdomen. Then the sensation turned into that familiar feeling of pain. =S But I just ignored it, thinking that it must have been caused by my abnormal eating habits during CNY. Hah...of all days, my "best friend" decided to pay me a visit! *sigh* I always let my "best friend" get to me. When "she" arrives, I'll feel gloomy & lazy to do whatever that makes me happy during "her" absence.

My family & my aunt's family planned to go to Kulim to visit my cousin so I had no choice but to take a pill after my lunch just in case my "best friend" decides to give me a hard time during the journey. Usually I'd opt not to take any medication because I believe in natural healing. LOL I'd just lie down & have a nap & the pain would just go away. The whole journey to Kulim was a torturous one. Could not sleep in the car + the seatbelts around my waist made the abdominal pain even worse. I just couldn't wait to reach my cousin's place so that I could take a nap on a comfortable bed.

When I finally reached my cousin's place, I heaved a sigh of relief! Bed...here I come! Good thing I managed to fall asleep for an hour or so & tadah! The pain was nowhere to be 'felt'! I was up & about again, playing with my cousin's kids! =)

*fast forward to evening*

Then came the part where I was in a dilemma again. L invited me to his house gathering at 10pm & we reached Penang at 9:45pm. At first I thought I'd have the guts to drive to his house alone but looking at the massive jam outside my house, I changed my mind. So L said he'd ask F to pick me up but F was nowhere near my house & was also caught in a massive jam. I guess everything was planned after all. As I'm typing this, I think my abdominal pain is coming back. =S Being a girl is so hard sometimes...I wonder how it'd feel like when I'm giving birth. *shudders* Well, thankfully I did not go to L's house, or else I'd be in pain whilst feeling bad if I ask someone to drive me home in the midst of their talking/joking/playing. But on the other hand, I feel a lil down that I was not able to join in the fun since L won't be back the following year & I don't know when I'll see him again.

Better stop typing & go to bed & get some rest. Losing quite a substantial volume of blood here. XP

XOXO,
Me

Ermm...growing up?

I just got back from an eventful night...well, maybe for just that half an hour (or less/more, I can't even remember correctly!). This was what happened...

A friend of mine, C, just got back from KL Thursday night, so he had asked me out before he even got back. So I went out for supper with C & a bunch of "our" friends at this hawker centre located dunno-where. It was fun sitting in the midst of a bunch of people who are completely different from the bunch of people I hang out with. So far, I'm still successful in sticking to my new year resolution so it's all good.

*fast forward*

After dropping L home, C, H & I were the only ones left in the car. I sat at the back, as usual. Because C's car doesn't have seatbelts at the back, I was kind of afraid that the police (P) would stop us due to the recent law on fining if seatbelts are not fastened. Hah! & what do u know?! Indeed we were stopped by a police. Insides of me churned like nobody's business, cold sweat broke out from my forehead, palms & even the soles of my feet. I mean, I have never been in a car that has been stopped by a P ever in my almost-21 years of existence!=S As there were people standing nearby & watching, the P asked us to jalan without having us to pay a single cent! We couldn't believe our "luck", but I could hear the word jalan LOUD & CLEAR! So I asked C to drive away quickly before the P decided to change his mind! Only then did I wake up from my nightmare. It was over. Though my heart was still pounding hard in my chest & my body was shaking, I heaved a sigh of relief. I really admire how H & C could laugh it off after that - genuinely or to make me feel better, I'm not sure. They had to assure me that it was OK & that it's a part of growing up. Oh well, after this experience, I have a strong feeling that my 2009 would be an extremely eventful one. ;)

Everything happens for a reason right? I just have to trust God in this new year. I have a feeling He'll bring me new experiences where I could learn something though I might not know what yet. I'll just have to live & see. =) I really really thank God that nothing bizarre happened & that C did not have to be blacklisted or anything. Not forgetting that He has blessed me with friends who know how to handle situations which I do not know how to & assuring me that everything's OK when I feel worried. Thank God in every circumstance right?! Amen! =)

p/s: Will update about eventful January, soon...I hope. =P

XOXO,
Me

My summer hols December 2008

5th December 2008

Friends I got to know during Disted-Stamford days fetched me from the airport to surprise my parents whom didn't have a clue (or so I thought) that I was reaching that night. I would say that the surprise was kinda successful. =P


8th December 2008
Had sardine + cucumber for breakfast since ages! Home sweet home!! <3


Had a trim & decided that I should try giving myself bangs so that I look younger than my age. =D

9th December 2008
Finally! After 9 months of cooking on my own, I got to taste my mom's yummy bak moy!


11th December 2008
Mom made Jawa mee, which was comparable to the ones sold at hawker centres but healthier!


15th December 2008
Had dim sum for breakfast @ Bali Hai with Prasana & Ruth. OH boy, you wouldn't know how much we laughed that day. All because of those funny-looking geoduck, fishes with kissable-looking "lips", escaping spider lobsters etc.


Had pizza for dinner with mommy & papa @ Pizza Hut.


17th December 2008
Disted girls' lunch out @ Manhattan Fish Market


18th December 2008

Had dinner @ Sakae Sushi with C & his gang or as he calls it - OUR gang. LOL


19th December 2008
Celebrated Wai Che's birthday at Sakae Sushi the next day & I met PQ "unofficially" there! XP We were planning to meet up & I've met her here! =) The whole table was surrounded by progesterone-rich beings. XP Later that night, we had KFC for dinner at Wai Che's place, courtesy of her parents. It was really fun, getting to know some Union girls & really enjoyed the bonding session except the fact that I got an irritating eye later that night. =(


21st December 2008
Had a really great meet-up with Pei Qi, my pre-school friend. She blogged about our outing here. Pai seh, I'm trying to summarise my whole December into 1 blog post. =P


On the same day, at night, I had dinner with my aunt's family + "my baby boy" @ a hawker food centre opposite Super Tanjung. Got to eat curry mee! =D


After that, met up with some of the OCFers who are from Penang & also Chloe who was going to go back to KL the next day.


24th December 2008
Christmas Eve! Remember my dilemma? I decided to spend Christmas Eve at my friend, PQ's church! =) Half of me wondered how it would have been if I went out with the other group of friends, but I guess every decision made is of a reason. I got to spend time with PQ & got to know BX more. I am happy to say that I did not regret my decision. ;)


25th December 2008
Had Christmas lunch at Prasana's place! Her mom & herself prepared various types of yummy food! Had fun catching up with Disted friends too...Everyone commented on how I still laugh like a horse & that I should go to a turf club for a date in the future so that my guy wouldn't suspect anything if he hears me laugh. He'll think it's just one of the horses.


29th December 2008
Met up with Yon Lynn, my high school friend! Haven't seen her since beginning of 2007, before I left for Adelaide. She's still as crazy as ever & never fails to crack me up! XD



30th December 2008
Had breakfast @ Mr. Pot with Alicia, whom I've known since primary school. We had a good time catching up with each other's lives overseas. Glad we're still keeping in touch after all these years!



31st December 2008
The fantastic 4 reunites with a new member (JM's sis)! The 4 of us bought the global warming shirt beginning of last year.


Later that night, I decided that maybe I should give OUR group of friends a chance. LOL That day, I finally learnt a way to face annoying people! XP & thus, my new year resolution would be to keep that up. Hehe~


So, that's all for December, will update about January soon, I hope. =P No promises. Anyway, I know this is a little too late, but Happy New Year! May you guys have a blessed year ahead! ;)

p/s: Taking my driving test this Monday, pray for me! =S

XOXO,
Me
