Sharing some memorable moments.

Big Apple Tea Break

April 16, 2008April 17, 2008 sweet surrender 12 Comments

I’m very stress, I’m very busy, I’m very piss! The thing is not hard but when you people come and interrupt the process halfway, we have to redo the whole thing from scratch! DAMN IT! Made up your mind, confirmed everything before asking for changes! SUCKS! You expect a 3-4 days job to be completed in 24 hours!?!? That’s insane!

At the end… I went too… Hahaha… Actually went there on Tuesday afternoon to meet M, can’t think of where to go and since haven’t been to Big Apple, it’s office hour summore, so decided to go there and buy some home at the same time. Thought that there won’t be many people but the queue was long! Queued up for more than 30 minutes for 12 donuts(6 to eat there, 6 to bring home).

While waiting… the open concept kitchen. See all the sauces? So colourful hahaha…

More of the kitchen view.

Donuts waiting to be eaten…

More… Here’s the box that fit the 6 donuts.

Left: This is for home, RM12 for 6 pcs.
Right: This is for eating on the spot, RM12 for 6 pcs. There were 6 of us, so each of us only pay RM2 for 6 donuts. You know how we ate? Hehehe… One donut splited into 6 😛 That’s how you enjoy and taste food with your friends ok??!? We didn’t wash our hands summore hahaha… Summore first time meet hahaha… It’s like sharing our germs *LOL* The six of us were M, Jimmy, Allen, Robin and Eric(not a blogger). We didn’t order any drink. Thought that the donut will be very sweet but it’s not, PinkCotton, you are right! Hahaha…

12 pcs per box is RM22, 2 boxes with 6 pcs each is RM24, each donut is RM2.30. There are 23 types:
Pink Panther, Duren Duren, Chocoring, Rolling Stone, Kiwi Blitz, Semi Glacier, Say Cheese, Go Nutz, Kimochi, Green Teaser, Chocoholic, Iceberg, Whitnut, Snowy, 101 Dalmation, Choreo, Spicy Flossy, Mango Tango, Glacier, Californian Almond, Moonraker, Chococinno and The Alien.

I’m so lazy to tell you which I had tried, you go figure out yourself. Very busy sigh… I need a break 🙁

According to our friend, guess what? We were told that the donuts here are smaller than KL’s! 30 cents more expensive than KL which I’m not surprise but smaller than KL, that’s so wrong! You already increase the price, you don’t have to reduce the size! ARG! What to do? Kuching people are damn rich, can afford to spend on expensive stuffs.

Left: Most people didn’t eat their donut on the spot, they take-away. Here’s the place for you to eat and you can see the them making donut from the clear glass hahaha… We kept taking photos of them and observing how they did it.
Right: Present to you, M! Hehehe… Taken at Starbucks. You have any idea who she is? Hehehe… She’s the belly dance girl during Kuching Entertainers’ Night.

By the way, there’s another report for the bloggers’ meet last Saturday but I’m still waiting for photos to be sent to me. Sigh… Others already got theirs, I haven’t get mine. I have several posts lining up as well… No time to edit the photos also.

My First Laser Tag Session

April 12, 2008April 18, 2008 sweet surrender 16 Comments

Made a last minute decision just now to join Anna and friends to play laser tag because there weren’t enough people, the more the merrier.

There’s only one place in Kuching to play laser tag. It’s located at Bangunan Ko-Perkasa, the shoplot behind KWSP at Simpang Tiga. I heard of it many times but never had the urge to play. Then the chance came today. Took the opportunity to try out.

It’s only RM4 and you can play for about 1 hour(depends… definitely more than half hour). It’s very affordable, great way to exercise also. We played two games, split into two groups to fight against each other. It took us about 1 hour as you need to rest in between each game and then reload your laser gun. Each game lasted for 15 minutes.

I’ve not been sweating and working out for so long. After the game session, my hand was numb as the gun was quite heavy. In addition with the squatting and running, my legs were so sore hahaha…

How to play? It’s basically same concept as paintball but it’s not as messy and painful as paintball because it only involved the vest with sensors and the laser gun, you cannot shoot anywhere you want, it won’t have any effect. It’s all about team building and strategies. It seemed like nothing, the room is small but when you are in it, it’s really SOMETHING! Don’t judge from what you see.

It’s really fun. I’m loving it! Let’s go next time, the more the merrier, maximum people for a session is 16 people. Anyone can play as long that you are more than 5 years old.

By the way, be sure to wear black or dark coloured clothings and shoes if you can, don’t ever go with bright colours as you will be easily seen by your opponents. Oh… You must do your booking first before you go to ensure that you get a place.

Got the contact!! Call 082-427867 🙂

Chapter 9: I’m Relocating

March 29, 2008March 29, 2008 sweet surrender 3 Comments

…continue from Chapter 8: I Feel Youâ€¦

I’m almost done with my degree, planning to look for job in Kuching and at the same time look out for a job in Singapore because I want to be closer to him. It was the only way I could go to Singapore and live there.

One day, he sent me an e-mail telling me that he’s relocating. He’s going to be based in Sydney and will be joining the national carrier of Australia. I was stunned. I had made up my mind and took up my courage to go to Singapore to work so that I could be with him and he gave me this kind of news. It’s enough that we’re in two different places divided by the South China Sea and now he wanted to relocate to another place divided by the Indian Ocean! Even further than Singapore. Of course I voiced my concern to him but at the same time there is no way I could stop him from pursuing his career and earn more money. I wanted him to retire early as well. I had to scrap my idea of working in Singapore.

The time came, I had my last paper, I went for a job interview and I got the job one week after my exam and few days after my birthday. During that time, he was busy settling his properties in Singapore and getting ready for the job in Sydney. Since he’s not working, he called me almost everyday! I started working and he called me every morning while I’m working. I spent almost 30 minutes to hour talking to him in my phone at the same time do my work. It’s a very bad working attitude, very bad… I know that but what to do?

Morning was usually the time we would be able to talk to each other when I was doing my degree and it’s the most convenient time. Other times, I didn’t have much privacy at home to talk to him. So with me started working, there wasn’t much time we could talk to each other. I even chatted to him everyday in MSN during working hours too! Worst still, we could chat in MSN and talk in the phone at the same time because sometimes there were words that cannot be said, everyone in the office would be hearing them, I would type it out in MSN.

Finally, he’s at Sydney for good. Looking for a new apartment while staying at the apartment that the airline provided and he managed to bought a car, a BMW Z4 which I later found out from his sister after his dismiss, it’s a Ferrari! *FAINT* His sister told me even his mom didn’t know about it, he knew we would nag him for spending such money, that’s why he didn’t tell us. When he bought the car, he told me he would be getting his car where the salesman would send the car straight to him to hand him the key and he would be joining the club’s meeting that night. I felt quite strange and thinking, “WOW! Such 5 stars service even have an exclusive club!”. I didn’t ask further though. Now I know. It’s a Ferrari, that’s why there’s such great customer service and even exclusive club!

Back to the relocation, he was thinking of buying a yacth which I didn’t really agree, still I let him make his own decision, I knew he would get one eventually. Few months back, he bought an aircraft, 4-seater if not mistaken and managed to flew his parents to Adelaide. I had no chance, was eagerly waiting for my chance.

He didn’t manage to find a suitable apartment yet, everyday he would go to the nearest Internet centre to online as the apartment he’s staying didn’t have Internet access. He told me that people kept staring at him when he drove his car to the Internet centre to online. He said to me that those people must be thinking, “Own such expensive car and cannot afford a laptop and Internet connection?!?!?” *LOL*

It went on for few weeks until he started working in October 2004.

Chapter 8: I Feel You…

March 5, 2008March 6, 2008 sweet surrender 5 Comments

…continue from Chapter 7: The Dream

It’s strange how I could feel him. How?

Since he’s a pilot, most of the time he might have to wake up very early in the morning or odd hours either when we were on the same side of the world or the other side of the world to get ready to work. Many times I would wake up in the middle of the night and would try to see what time it was. Then after that I would go back to sleep.

It’s not one time but many times. It’s quite strange. I asked him what he’s been up to when he’s online or called me, he would tell me everything starting from the time he woke up. That’s how I realised those were the times when I woke up in the middle of the night to look at the clock, those were actually the time he woke up!

Besides that, sometimes, out of sudden I would have butterflies in my stomach. I had no idea why until I found out from our conversation either online or on the phone that I had butterflies in my stomach when he thought of me! *BLUSH* I didn’t tell him anything about this. He’s the one that told me he had thought of me during so and so time. Those were the times the butteflies attacked me!

There were also times I actually woke up in the middle of the night because of the butteflies! While I was sleeping, he’s working, flying long haul on the B744. During his flight, when there’s not much to do in the cockpit, he would think of me and smile to himself. His co-pilot would sometimes tease him about it. That’s the time I would wake up suddenly because my stomach was full of butterflies! Also, when he’s at the other side of the world, wide awake and thought of me, I would wake up suddenly because of that feeling too.

After so many experiences like this, I was sure that I could feel him. I did tell him about it after quite sometimes and of course we’re happy about it. He never felt me though… I guess… He never told me about it except telling me that he thought of me and he missed me.

This is one amazing thing that could happen when you are in love. Isn’t love a beautiful thing?

Some CNY 2008 Group Photos

February 19, 2008February 27, 2008 sweet surrender 2 Comments

Kept having disconnections lately!! What’s wrong with you Streamyx!!??! *Piss*

Here are two photos that was taken during the group visiting on CNY.

This was taken on the first day of CNY at the last house, Mikel’s(splashmilk.com) house. He’s the one in purple. Went there after Sushi King.

This was taken on Sunday, the 11th day of CNY(17.02.08). Lee wasn’t ready to end his CNY celebration this year just like that. In fact, it’s 15 days celebration for CNY but usually most people would not be in visiting mood after the fourth day. Since he was in Thailand for the first 6 days of CNY, he didn’t manage to celebrate it back home with us, he decided to organise a group visiting like we used to have in previous years hahaha… I didn’t organise it this year. One main reason is that he’s not in Kuching and Audrey wasn’t in Kuching too. The rest were plain lazy(no CNY mood) and one was missing in action -.-

We gathered at Lee’s house. That’s where I drank about a quarter glass of Heineken and immediately after few sips, my allergy started to attack again and it’s worst than the time I had Tiger but could stand it, no problem, just a bit more uncomfortable than the previous attack. 😛 I still feel a bit itchy here and there now.

Forgot to take our group picture at Ann’s house since everyone was there. So we took it at Lee Ling’s house, that explains Ann and Jee are missing in the photo. 😛

Few more days to the 15th day, it would also be the Chinese Valentine’s Day. On this day, single girls will throw oranges into the river hoping that their princes would be picking up the orange, found each other and live happily every after. This was long long long long time ago in China hahaha… The fact is that, nowadays people would be collecting it and sell it again! 😛 Hahaha…

Wonder what kind of activities Kuching Bloggers(points to the sidebar, see the round button) will have on that day? I guess I’ll just stay at home online, blogging. I’m kinda lazy to go out 😛
