Me, the narcissist.
It’s been quite sometimes not doing this ;p Specially for those who missed me. Take before and after I had my student ID processed hehehe…
L-R: Taken in my room; taken in the toilet of South Australian Museum; taken at the Botanic Gardens; my student ID.
Different hairstyles in 1 day! *LOL* I did nothing to it. It’s the air here, My curls are mostly gone here because I blew dry my hair everytime after wash. Can’t air dry like I used to, it’s cold! ;p
The past 2 1/2 years, almost every single weekend, I’m surrounded by these girls. Miss those crazy days in classes with them. We had junk food while listening to lectures by passing the food around while the lecturers were busy lecturing ;p Non-stop eating every weekend. Sometimes we even had buah kedondong(Great Hog Plum) and sambal belacan, even kuaci in class! Imagine passing them from the front to the back, from the back to the front during lectures. Whenever there’s celebrations(CNY, Raya, Gawai etc.), there’s non-stop food supply.
Usually my gathering sessions were with male and female friends; attended classes with male and female course mates; all in the same age range.
With the girls, it’s a different experience from what I used to have. We ranged from early 20’s to late 40’s(single and married), coming from different professions and ethnicity but with the same love for children education. We even had a course mate in her 60’s but she’s from the earlier batch.
Last Sunday, only those in age range of early 20’s to 30’s turned up. Doesn’t matter the age difference, when we’re all together, there’s no such thing as age difference. We’re all in the same wavelength.
Last year, majority had graduated. Had been talking about gathering but it was never organized. Finally last Sunday we had our very first gathering at Delizze even though many couldn’t make it. As usual, we had so many types of food excluding food with colby jack cheese and mexican cheese. However, there’s food with grated parmesan cheese. I don’t quite remember what we had, I didn’t take photos of them, too many till lost track.
At the end of the gathering, they gave me a beanie and a scarf. Thanks girls! Surely will keep me warm. The beanie is so CUTE!
Till we meet again.
Back by popular demand. This was taken on Valentine’s eve somewhere in Kuching. Obviously it’s before my haircut. Means this is not my latest photos.
Are you seeing double?
I guess you won’t be seeing any of my vain photos for awhile after this.
Happy Chap Goh Mei! This marks the last day of CNY. Time is flying so fast! February is almost over in no time. The fireworks tonight is much much much more happening than CNY’s eve and any other days of CNY. I guess it’s the clear weather and also to clear stock.
On this day, I went to cut my hair. It’s been quite a long time not cutting my hair this short ;p
The last time I cut my hair was about 6 months ago but it seemed like still the same. Now, cut it again. It’ll be shorter after my next hair wash, this is just salon effect.
Usually I only cut my hair once a year. I have to cut this short because I won’t be cutting it until June 2012 *LOL* By then, my hair should be over my waist.
Enjoy the last day of CNY!
It’s the 4th day already! It’s going back to work day tomorrow for some. Including me… Oh well… Have work appointment so what to do?
Strangely I don’t blog much about CNY this year. Simple, It’s not as happening as it used to. This post is enough to summarize these 5 days…
CNY’s eve, painted my toenails red and added some nail stickers on it. First time painted my toenails red ;p All thanks to my sis who is back for CNY this year, it’s been 5 years I think… Lost track. She has red nail polish so I used it. I found myself liking this red toenails more and more hahaha… I didn’t shop for shoes this year. The shoes I’m wearing was bought in 2009. As for clothes, my sister did the shopping for me ;p Whatever she bought, those she couldn’t wear, it would be mine. I only bought two sleeveless t-shirts and a clincher online.
Fireworks war(illegal but who cares?) around the neighbourhood welcoming the rabbit year but it was short lived because of the rain. However, once the rain stopped, they started again. Then again, it’s pretty quiet this year at least for my area. It’s not as crazy as it used to be. Even these few nights were not that noisy, just random ones.
Left: Rabbit cookies we ordered for my sis hahaha… She’s born in the year of rabbit.
Right: Cake form my cousin, used to have Secret Recipe’s but not this year.
Day 1: Woke up at around 10am. It was a gloomy and wet day. Went over to my friend’s house in the afternoon as usual… That’s what I did on the first day all these years LOL. Only one house and that’s it. No one came over, the usual ones are no longer in Kuching. Quiet day…
Day 2: I’m sick! I felt so weak, nose was runny. Stayed home whole day, watched series online and watched TV. Nothing much, no one came. Went to bed earlier than usual.
Day 3: Woke up at 10am+, felt slightly better. My friend said that he’s coming over at around 11am! =.= I only got out of the shower at 11am hahaha… When he came, my hair was still wet, no makeup on. So… He waited for me while helping himself with the newspapers on the table. After that, we headed out to visit our friends. Everyone wasn’t home. Only went to one house and went back to his place to wait for the others to come since they’re out and about instead of us visiting them. We didn’t have any plan this year for group visiting. It was all impromptu. Whatever, I was pretty sluggish because of the flu. It’s not me driving anyway. Met quite a number of friends from college but not as many as it used to.
In fact, I had some plans to visit some friends but I was sick and I still am. So I scraped the idea. I don’t want my virus to spread to the babies -.-” Talking about babies, damn… Our topic yesterday at the second house we went was all about hitting 30! Also, shooting each other with “when is your turn??” even though we all know it’s still very far fetch ;p Gosh! 30 and achieving nothing much when many of our friends are already few levels ahead of us(singles/not married and struggling to find our path in lives, only us got the time to meet up during CNY, the so called not-settling-down-group ;p). The already-settled-down-group were just too busy with their own lives and it’s hard to hang out like we used to. Life…
Day 4: Here I am… Sitting at home doing nothing hahaha… Thought of tomorrow, I dread it… So lazy ;p Luckily I’m my own boss.
That’s all about my CNY this year. There’s still one week plus to go, will there be any surprise by then. I don’t know… Not putting any hope at all. Some stuffs just didn’t go as I had planned and hoped. I don’t know what to expect, time will tell. Life still goes on even though kind of dreading the reality but what to do? It’s just parts and parcels of our lives. We can just hope and do our best.
All I know is that I need to get some matters settle before I embark on the next adventure. Some might know about it, some don’t. Whatever it is, I’m likely won’t be celebrating my CNY here next year. We’ll see how by then. Just goes as the flow.
Wishing all of your a happy and smooth sailing year ahead!
