Happy birthday to you!

Yep, it's my twin aunts' birthdays today but one of them isn't living here right now. So, we went out for dinner together with my two younger sisters at The Ark Gallery & Cafe. Coincidentally enough, it turned out that Rano is currently working part time there and he somehow reminded me about our STPM results which will come out tomorrow. Not that I care much. Lol.

Ah well, enjoy some pics here :3

A brand new year

2010 is finally here and HAPPY NEW YEAR, everyone!!

I spent the night with my friends whom I haven't met since we left secondary school. Our original plan was to celebrate it with our teacher but it turned out that she was busy. The new year gathering almost got canceled but fortunately enough, I somehow managed to save it :P

We spent about 3 hours in Red Carrot Cafe talking about random stuff while eating. I have to say that most of them have changed in terms of appearance. Anyways, here are some pictures taken earlier XD











Now I'm looking forward to our next party which will probably be held in a month :D

Sayonara, lanterns~

During the Mid-Autumn Festival which was celebrated about 2 weeks ago, we had 7000 lanterns hanging across the roads and buildings in Sibu forming an extremely long dragon's body. The lanterns were hung starting from Sibu Pagoda until Sibu Gateway. I have actually seen them for several times but didn't have the chance to take pictures because I ended up being distracted all the time. I almost took some snaps of the dragon's head just on the night before the festival but my friends suddenly arrived with a car and drove me to somewhere else for our hangout.

By the time when I was ready to take photos of the lanterns, it was disappointing to find out that some of them were removed already. Sigh.. >_>

I didn't take the photos below but I thought I'd share them.









And here is the full view. Splendid, right?



As me and my aunt drove around town this morning, I could see that only certain parts of the dragon's body left. They don't even turn on the lights during night time. That's too bad.

I took these from the inside of the car.







Oh yeah, next year's celebration might be even more epic 8D

Mid-Autumn Festival

The Mid-Autumn Festival for this year fell on the 3rd of October. My family celebrated it. We had dinner together with our other relatives. It was awesome considering that my big family consists of people from different races and yet, we enjoyed the festival together even though it was meant for Chinese people.

I could see the full moon tonight. It gave a calm and nice feeling that I decided to take a shot of it~



Once we were done with that, it was time to play the lanterns! We lighted up around 30 of them. Those were beautiful :3







The festival would be incomplete without the yummy mooncakes! We bought some and I always love them especially those containing egg yolks inside.



Here's another one but I have no idea at all about its name. The only think I know is it's eatable XD

Eid Mubarak!!

Eid is finally here again! As usual, the whole family went out to visit houses of our relatives and friends who are celebrating Eid. We started visiting around 9:40 am and ended up going to 8 houses. Gotta love all the curry, rendang, masak hitam, masak merah, ketupat, lemang etc. It was really nice especially when I got to see a giant Persian cat weighed 6 kg and it was super fluffy! Of course I saw other felines as well X3





I met lots of my former teachers from primary school today. It seems like most of them couldn't recognise me and went "you have changed a lot! O_O" once they found out who I am. I have somehow expected them to give that kind of reaction anyway XD

We headed home around 1:40 pm since everyone was tired and full. However, our 'raiding' session didn't end there since we still had invitations waiting. We continued around 2:45 pm and dad started driving again. It was tiring since we went to another 8 houses which means we have visited 16 houses today! Lol our last year's record of 12 houses has been broken XD

I got some 'green packets' as well. I didn't expect to get them since people normally give those to small kids only and I'm no longer in that category. Hahaha. The evening visits were awesome though since I even met my old friends from primary school. Wow.. we have all changed a lot! Obviously, some are hard to recognize except for one best friend from about 10 years back who seemed to be the only one who could remember me even though we look different now and haven't met for years. Win XD

All in all, today was a real nice day since everyone is normally busy with life that we don't get the chance to meet often.

I feel tired at the moment so I will stop here. EID MUBARAK TO ALL MUSLIMS! :)

Bye 18 and Hi 19~

This year's birthday is truly one of the best ones ever! I bet you all know that I was having an early birthday celebration with my friends on the 30th of August (a week early lol) and because of that I've been getting birthday wishes starting from that day until now. First of all, I'll mention the names of those who turned my birthday into an epic one (just for fun lawl) 8D

The earliest people to wish me happy birthday starting from the 30th were my family members, Jennifer, Billy, Da Lung, Nav, Zach, Thomas, and Bobo although they knew the real day hasn't arrived yet. I remember how panic Jennifer was when she thought that my real birthday has already passed. Hahaha XD

Of course I got some early gifts from my family members and relatives. The keyboard (not computer keyboard :P) given by my uncle and aunt is really great! It seems like I have to start recalling the proper way of playing it again and enhance my music skills lol.

The real epic moment started as early as 12am this morning when I received my very first birthday wish and gift on the exact date, 7th of September 2009! Lol, Bernard beat the rest by sending me a simple, yet beautiful and touching drawing. Win XD. The second wish came from Chrissy at about 12:30am, which is then followed by more wonderful wishes from Ivon, Sabine, Elliza, Jonathan, Guru, Amanda, Zach (again XD), Rauf, William, Louis, Jun, Dorothy, Dila, Jason, Josh, Kimi, Odom, Felicia, Joanne, Leo, Suffian, Carol, Ajmeer, Nus, Karen, John, Jamie, Michiel, and Samuel! Everyone is in, right? It's still continuing until now lol XD

Oh, I had another birthday celebration with my family and relatives last night. Here are some photos to be shared~

My second birthday cake of 2009 XD













We raided KFC and smuggled some Cheezy Wedges >:D



Now I'll tell you guys about what happened today. Ms. Ghiam came into our class early in the morning and announced something which really made my day. I was like "omg really??" at the moment she said "the principal has accepted you guys' request to be exempted from the current colloquium and R&D sessions, which are part of the new education system". It simply means that we no longer have to conduct useless researches, which are seriously time-wasting. School went on as usual until 3:15pm, but of course I got some birthday wishes from my friends.

Attending Chemistry class for 2 hours in the afternoon was very boring and tiring, especially when you've been studying for 6 hours straight in the morning, causing everyone to almost fall asleep. Billy and Ruth who were sitting behind me suddenly called my name. So, I turned back and to my surprise, they handed me a card filled with awesome messages and a gift while wishing me happy birthday! Thanks for the beautiful card, Ruth, Catherine, Kiew Siong, Suk Ping, Tuan Jong, Heh Seng, Jennifer, Billy, Clara, Tang Ho, Ai Ping, Wei Ting, Hiong Hiong, Da Lung, Gary, and Huo Sen!! I love it <3



And here's the envelope of the card. Now I'm wondering whose brilliant idea is this? XD



Also, at the moment I reached home, I received another drawing from Odom, which has Bob the Blob in it. Splendid indeed! Thanks for the great gift~ XD

Thank you very much for everything~

My -early- birthday celebration

Today was truly one of the best days in my life. I was supposed to have a normal fun outing with my friends but it turned out that we ended up celebrating my birthday. We bought a cake without knowing the actual flavour (lol) and made a simple celebration at Sushie Tie Restaurant. The feeling was great when they sang birthday song for me and even wished me good things. Of course there were some funny and random stuff happened lol.

Thanks again to Billy, Jennifer, and Da Lung. You guys really made my day! =D

Our Farewell Party ROCKED!!

I have just returned from my school's prefects farewell party about 3 hours ago and I have to say that everything was awesome! I ended up taking over hundred pics and videos using my camera. Lol XD

The best moment about the party was when we made a video clip about our memories when we were still prefects and projected it on the huge screen. It sure brought back lots of memories :)

Ah well, I'll let the pictures do the talking now XD
