Tuesday, May 24, 2011 / The Big Day
It was quite
eventful on last Saturday. As we all know, our beloved ex-colleague,
Stephanie Liam got
married on 21st May 2011.
Wedding invitation card (So cute, right?)
The wedding dinner was held in Oriental Pavilion
I was honor to be one of her "
chi mui"(s) (a.k.a
bridesmaids). This was my first time. What do people used to say? That you cannot be a "chi mui" more than three times or else you can't get married or something? Haha.
Our dress code: Purple
I do love this purple corsage!
(Ehem, of course, that's because my fav color is purple too!)
Well, on last Friday, I and some of the girls (
Melinda,
Zoe and
WaiKuan) went to
Carlton's Hotel,
Shah Alam to stay overnight because we have to be at the bride's house on 6a.m. That night, we prepared stuff such as thinking and writing down questions to ask for tomorrow games for the "heng dai". We all slept at 1a.m. Well, the rest of the girls. I couldn't sleep at all! Ok, I know I'm not a bride(
what the heck? hahaha) but I really want to sleep, I close my eyes with my sleeping eye covers, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't sleep. So I practically spent the whole night with my eye closed(not sleeping) until the next morning at 4a.m something. I did feel like a
zombie that day. After the morning session ended, one of the heng dai(s) sent me back home and I slept for 2 hours before getting dolled up and get ready for the wedding dinner at
Oriental Pavilion,
Jaya33 at
6.30pm. It was fun to meet everyone once again such as my
ex-collegues, my
intern friends like
Bluey and
Simon, of course. But our tables was missing out a lot of my intern friends such as
Lizzie,
Sharmayne,
Mei, and
Lemon who are not in KL at the moment :( We both (me and
Bluey) felt quite
lonely without them around.
Me with super cool Bluey
It was an
awesome experience. I never been to a real wedding with all the tradition and everything except in TV! This is yet again my first time. The tea ceremony, the moment when the groom fetch his bride, the wedding games and etc. Everyone is happy and you can feel the
love is in the air. Truly enjoy the moment as it show to me,
true love does exist, that two people decided to spend the rest of their life together forever is truly touching. I have this urge to get marry too when I witness this happy occasion. LOL.
Inside this special card, contains...
A beautiful couple.
Aren't they cute? <3
Happily ever after!
P.S: I will uploaded the photos taken on that day as soon as I got them from my friends in FB! :)

Monday, May 23, 2011 / Steamboat Party
On 13th May 2011(Black Friday, no?), I went to Flaming Steamboat, Setapak for a party that was organized by the company we worked for the roadshow to celebrate the success for Libresse roadshow. Only ambassadors that worked for more than three days were invited to this steamboat party. But some of them missed this party because a couple of them are in their hometown or else some got other important plans. It was a great time catching up with others. Oh well, let the pictures do the talking, alright?

Honestly, the food are
so-so only compare to other steamboat places I went before. Anyway, it doesn't hurt to try :) This might be the last time we gather for this year since most of them are going to
U.K to pursue their studies.

Saturday, May 14, 2011 / PIPIT Wonderful Market 6
Went to
PIPIT Wonderful Market 6 at
Annexe Gallery, Central Market on last Saturday with
Cindy,
Wen Ling and
Julia. I have never been to one before so it is eye-opening. There are so many talented artist/designer showing off their artworks/handmade craft/limited items which you also can buy from there. It was so
jam-packed with crowd. You literally have to push around to squeeze in with the crowd. No doubt, it is a popular festival. Too bad I didn't manage to buy anything. Some of the pictures I took below with my handphone camera.
I hope someday I will be as talented as them :D
After visiting the gallery, we went to eat the famous beef noodles nearby. It was indeed, good.
the best beef noodles in town

Wednesday, May 11, 2011 / Julia's 22nd Birthday
Well, last Wednesday, my friend,
Simon planned a
surprise dinner to celebrate our roadshow friend, Julia's birthday on last Friday because her birthday falls on
8th May. He told us the dinner started at 6pm, so me and
Wen Ling went to Mid Valley earlier to do some research (
Wen Ling did that as she reached much more early than me -- 2pm, I reached there around 5pm) and searching for present. As the time was ticking away, it was already 6pm something, so we went to get
Starbucks after
Wen Ling received a call reminding her to get Starbucks coffee as today was the last day for the half price promotion. I got my
Chocolate Creme Chip Frap half price for the first time! <3
Yum!
Mr.Simon said he will be late with Julia. So, we waited until 7pm something, almost 8pm at some cafe with Cindy. When he arrived(not with Julia cos he told her he needs to use the bathroom), he brought us the birthday card that we are supposed to write. Then we decided where to eat -- Sushi Tei since Simon insisted it must be a Japanese restaurant because Julia loves Japanese food. Simon went back to Julia to bring her to Sushi Tei, we went to brought two slices of Secret Recipes cake. After that, we went to Sushi Tei and acted like we coincidentally bumped into them. It must be getting weirder and weirder because after that, Karena came, and not long after that, Alexa joined us. Anyhow, I didn't know whether this dinner is a success or not, but I do hope Julia is happy with everything.
The food (Oh, you should know I'm never good with Japanese food name, so I didn't know the name of any of the food we ate below C: )

Sunday, May 8, 2011 / Happy Mother's Day 2011
The only word I would like to say on this special day.
I love you, mum!
She is awesome and she will always be my hero.
Me, around 2 years old and my hot mum ;)
I would like to share an article I wrote during secondary school for a competition(of course I didn't win) that was published in my school yearbook.
Pardon my writing(*
cringed*), as it was written by
15-year-old me.
LOL. I know it is a bit
childish but it's the thoughts that count, okay?
Anyway, Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful mummies out there!

Monday, May 2, 2011 / Last Week
Last Monday, me and
Cindy went to SSPN main office at KL Sentral to settle our account things. For those who don't know what is a SSPN, it stands for Skim Simpanan Pendidikan Nasional (also known as National Education Savings Scheme). Back then, we have to open one account at SSPN in order to borrow PTPTN loan. The first time I went, I couldn't close my account due to having joint name with my mum and her signature is needed. So I brought it back home for her to sign and went back to the office two days later. So, the second time, they said I need to bring my mum's
IC and
account book in order to close it(totally impossible right? unless I bring my mum herself). Or else the photostate IC and account book need to be certified (duh. so
troublesome). So, I probably have to go to the office for the
third time. =_=!!!
Anyway, went to
Snowflakes at
Sungai Wang last Monday with
Cindy and
Wen Ling. This was the first time I don't have to wait for table because it is a weekday and also afternoon time. I still don't get why it is so
crowded every time.
Yummy!
My fav : snowflake bestseller <3
On Wednesday, went to Times Square to watch Red Riding Hood with Simon, Cindy, Wen Ling and Julia. We bumped into Beng Chai and his friend, so we went to eat lunch and watch movie together. After watching movie, we bumped into Qreez. After bumping into Qreez, we bumped into Alexa. It was a pretty weird day because we were bumping into our friends that we worked together during roadshow. Weird.
We didn't forget to snap some pictures.

Julia x Me x Cindy x WenLing x Alexa (bumped into Alexa after she got off from work.) x Beng Chai (and his new brought luggage to UK this month)
Another weird things happened that day. When we were taking picture using Julia's Fujifulm Instax Mini 7S camera, a Malay guy suddenly walked up and stood beside me, shoulder to shoulder. I was stunned yet I smiled for the camera. After Julia snapped the picture, the guy just went off. Just like that. Weird! Luckily my friend is smart enough to crop him off the pic! You can see half of his head and body below. Total psycho!
That stupid fellow spoiled the whole pic! :(
What a day!
