Series Of Unfortunate Events in Kuantan

So i was away for an event in Kuantan last week. we stayed in Hyatt Regency Kuantan for 2 nights. a series of unfortunate events happened throughout the 3 days we were there. first, they fucked up my room category, they gavce me a 2-bedded room. -_- it's very scary to sleep in a room a lone with TWO beds!

then, because some last minute group booking from the US embassy, they are quite full and can't give me the same type with my collegue, so terpaksa take one with this view from my balcony....

direct view from balcony.

this is the view from my collegue's room. see the HUGE difference?

the beach.

so after our event, we went for a stroll at the beach in the evening.

it's my first time in Kuantan and to be honest, the hotel is comfy, staff are nice (except for the reception desk, they don't smile. ugh) their banquet staffs are very accommodative,and they have very nice sea view!

ohai Kuantan!!!

they have 2 pools, this is one of them. too bad we don't have time to lepak here.

they also have a very wide spread of buffet breakfast, which consists of western, indian, malay and chinese style. and of course, i opted for the western for both days, because others are just too heavy. this is just nice.

the view from my breakfast table, overlooking the beach. cannot believe that there are 2 people swimming at the sea at 7.30am in the morning!!!

so the second unfortunate event is on the second day, right before i get ready for my event before breakfast, the power supply just went off! luckily i'm not in the shower when it happened!!!! if not, i'll really die cos i'm alone in the room and it's TOTAL darkness! the first thing i did was to open the door and peep out to see if there's anyone out there, then open my balcony door to let the sun light in. phew~

then i went back to my room after my event ends at 4pm, and guess what..... i'm locked out of my room!

stupid door just won't open!!

ugh. first, they gave me the wrong category, then gave me a staircase view, then the power tripped and then my door cannot open!! wtf!!! so bad luck meh!!

then during check out, the front desk screwed up again. some minor mistake. -_- seriously, their front desk people really have no smiles on their face!! don't deserve to be in front desk. can't believe that a 5 start hotel will have this kind of quality.

but luckily the event went well so it kinda compensate on my bad lucks lah...

I Love Oldschool Things!

wah i’m so puny.. heheh..

i found a new exercise book in my pile of junks while cleaning my room last weekend (moving house, remember?) i don’t even remember i kept this! whoa… this one.. at least 10 years old. the last edition of this book was in year 2000 or was it 1999? can’t remember. hmm.. feels good walking down the memory lane while clearing junks. i found some old photos and cheesy poems that i wrote. hahahahha… even I don’t believe that i wrote it.. lol! will post it up here when i have the time though.
anyway, there’s so much to do.. so many things happened. shitty things. nothing new though. just normal shitty things ie: work and insensitive boyfriend but both have been resolved. anyway… will update about my room once i’m done arranging and cleaning. (if you follow me on twitter, you’ll know how frustrated i was with my dad for rearranging MY ROOM after i planned it the way i want. ugh!)

I Love Lobster!

So we went to Lobsterman last Saturday to celebrate my birthday. Shared a 900gms lobster with Smelly and it's shiokalingam!!! seriously in love with it! gonna go back there next month for Father's Day! whee~

happy birthday to me.

it’s my 25th birthday today.
quarter life passed. achieved almost nothing.
is life supposed to be like this? *shrug* so insignificant and boring.
why do we celebrate birthdays?
to celebrate life.
but aren’t we all supposed to celebrate life 24/7? why only celebrate life on birthdays? so you don’t celebrate life on normal days? how miserable is that?
hmm.
as i grow older, i see a pattern.
birthday is just another day.
it could be a working day.
it could be a Sunday.
it could be a bad day.
it could be a sad day.
it could be an exam day.
it could be a public holiday.
it could be a break-up day.
it could be a proposal day.
it could be a wedding day.
it could be another birthday.
it could also be a death day.
yes. so what’s the big fuss about birthdays again?
it’s just another day.
like today.
it’s a Sunday.

10 Most Hated Question/Statement.

In no particular order…

1. Where do you see yourself in 5 years time?

 – during interviews. I almost always have problems answering this. I just hate this question so much.

2. When are you getting married?

 – why the fuck you wanna know? If nobody wanna marry me, are you going to 扬  me for the rest of my life?

3. You look chubbier/fatter/bigger.

– I know. You don’t have to remind me… and what do you get in return by saying that? You’re not thin oso. Pffft. *in denial*

4. Tell me about yourself

– during interviews again. Gee.. you dunno how to read resume ah? Ask me something else lah.

5. You don’t look like you know how to cook

– speechless. DO YOU KNOW that I start cooking for the whole family since 12? Pfft.(I’m not saying that I’m a pro but I DO KNOW how to cook. Period)

6. You like lah / Anything lah…

- whenever I ask “what you wanna eat”. Cos when I suggest, you say “eee..don’t want lah” for all the suggestions! Wtf! Then why you say “you like lah/ anything lah” for???

7. Why you don’t want to get married?

– again, this is a stupid question. You wanna pay for my wedding ah?

8. I’m SO fat

– when you look like a chopstick and wind can blow you away ANYTIME, you say you are fat!!!  Wtf!! Then I’m so obese I’ll die if I eat one more bite of food.

9. You where got chubby?!?!? (trying to comfort me. Wtf.)

– when CLEARLY my face is bloatedly round, tummy is bulging out, arms looked like a turkey thigh and thigh looked like a pig’s leg! (and i am serious about this.)

10. It’s time to get married

– WHO ARE YOU to tell me that??? (parents are exceptional in this case). And WHY ARE YOU NOT married yet? Pfft.

The last one was the most hated question ever!!!! Okay..  anything related to the word MARRIAGE is really annoying and hated okay!!! Seriously! Who said being together for almost 5 years HAVE to be married? Who said? Who so free got nothing to do go and spread this stupid invisible rule? Who said must get married so early??? Who said I must be married to him??? tiu.

I Love Weekends!

last weekend, as usual, went to Jap class only to know that we have a test on what we've learnt for the past 3 months. but it was just a test on 6 lessons out of the 12. phew. i think i did good.

anyway, went for movie with Vince. watched Iron Man 2, which i think it's not as good as everyone raved about. meh... i like Ip Man 2 better. come to think about it, i think this was the first time i went movie with Vince after 3 years of knowing him! wow!

had dinner at Manhattan Fish Market. omg the mussels with garlic cream thingy is super super shiokalingam that i can go back there just to eat it!



Sunday was spent on the bed the WHOLE day. i missed Ann's text and call cos the phone was on silent mode the night before (was in a movie remember?) only realised in the evening when i finally drag my ass up to shower. wtf. =(  huhu.. *Ann, this Sunday we go out lah ok?*


seriously.. no more sleeping in the whole day on Sunday anymore!! but then ah... damn ironic lah... if i wake up early morning, nobody teman me go breakfast... nothing to do on Sundays cos Sunday is supposed to be rest day... aiyah.. hmm.








ok. i cheated. this is not Monday Loves cos i was too busy yesterday. but i don't care. bleh.

Birthday Present Come In Pairs!

It’s Friday again. Seriously, time passed so fast!!! We’re already in the second quarter of the year! Where did January - April went? Ugh! And the second week of May is ending! Huhuhu… I felt like I haven’t achieved anything besides completing (again) my Japanese beginner one class. Woo hoo! Beginner two starts next weekend! Tho I’m restudying it, I still can’t wait! Another little “achievement” was to create a new label here, which is “Monday Loves” which features random things that I love/like though I reckoned that most of the entries are about my beloved SiKenit aka my niece. And also a label called “Finally Friday” mostly to recap what happened the past week and just to update anything at all. Again, I have to stress that I don’t blog for other people. I blog for myself. I just wanna keep this space updated so that I’m old and demented , I can read it back to I know what I’m like during my younger days, my friends, my family, my emotions… well, that’s IF I still remember how to use the computer and this blog’s address! Wtf.



Anyway, my beloved Shorty bought TWO early birthday presents two days ago! Woot woot!

Guess what’s inside!! Heheh.. love it so much!! (Thanks sis!!!)

And this too! ♥

I Love Mommy!

It’s Mother’s Day yesterday. This year, I kinda overlooked the dates and didn’t have time to get a present for mom. So I just emailed her a virtual card I designed, with a poem (I found on the net cos writer block that day. Eh.. it’s the thought that counts ok..)

So I thought since no present, why not arrange webcam date with mom right? So I asked gramma over to my aunt’s house with Shorty and Eva. BUT… my aunt’s house internet was down for a week! And Celcom’s reception is damn poor in that area so we couldn’t connect to Skype. =(

So we went to a café nearby for lunch so that we can use the wifi there. But the signal is so bad that we can’t connect Skype! Wtf! So many obstacles! (and I found out today that it’s my mon’s connection, not ours!). Anyway, since I’m the only non mother, I treated gramma, my aunt and her mother in law, and Shorty lunch! Hehe.. I’m sure mom is very happy to know that we celebrated with gramma on behalf of her.. ♥

so hard to get her to pose with gramma!!

i seriously need a camera!!!!!

do we look alike? heh...

Blazer Hunting Begins NOW!

ok.. so i've been looking for a blazer since i started working in a new office. i need it for my formal events.. you know.. cos i need to look presentable?

and i'm looking for something less formal... not like the old school blazer that you can find in G2000..

after hunting it online.. there are a few that i like and i guess i know what style i want!!! btw, i went to Topshop 2 months ago and saw one, but didn't get it cos it was like RM350 and i cannot justify the worthiness. -_- in other words, i'm stingy and cheapo. i rather spend on shoes and bags rather than clothes. but lately i think i need to start investing on nicer clothes cos i'm like 25 already. cannot wear jeans and baby-t all the time already! i need a whole new wardrobe man..

back to the blazers... i found some really nice-looking ones.. 

it really changed the whole look with a blazer. so simple. so smart. not too formal. i totally love this look!! it's so so so simple that i think anyone can pull it off! *mental note: diet starts NOW. so that i can get that skinny legs!!!*

this one too.. love the contrast lining on the sleeves. ah.. another similar look! so simple that you can pair it with a skinny pants and loose shirt inside and turn it into a smart casual outfit! *need to get a similar shoe!!!!!*

i like the cutting. but i'll stick to black. i guess by now, you can notice what i like about blazers huh? another similar cutting.

no need to explain anymore. hahah!

in conclusion, i'm loving how you can just roll the sleeves up or just get one with a contrast inner lining to create that look! ♥

gonna go hunt for it this weekend! can't wait!!!

I Love CW - Eva Goes Swimming!

 ok one more one more

"duwan duwan duwan"

eva.. look at the camera... "duwan duwan duwan"

jom! swim! "duwan duwan duwan"

-_- she kept on saying "duwan duwan duwan"  cos she's afraid of the water... so she just sit on the steps, and not move. lol.. so cute.. when we want to leave, she doesn't want to get out of the pool! haha.. why my niece so cute... ♥

Don't Judge Me.

I had a wonderful but sad dream last night. It seems so real. Everything seems perfect.

It was in impromptu trip. I remember clearly in that after I touched down on New York airport, the first thing I did was to text my boss and say “I had an emergency. I’ll be in New York for a few days.” The exact words I typed out. I was panic cos it was a working day and I didn’t remember applying leave. Wtf.

I dreamed that I hopped on the plane, without planning, with dad. We went there to surprise mom. When they met, they hugged. They kissed. Just like teenagers in love. So sweet. So loving.

I remember calling his mom, telling her that I’m in town for a visit and I’ll drop by soon.

I remember trying to call him. But somehow, things were blurry every time I tried calling. So I text him.  “I’m in New York. =)”

Then, the alarm went off. (why does this always have to happen?)

Everything seems so real that it doesn’t feel like a dream at all. It doesn’t occur to me that it was just a dream. Until I woke up. Until reality hits me.

What I dreamed was just the opposite of my reality.

There’s no impromptu trip, especially to New York. I can never afford to have one. Not yet.

There’s no loving mom and dad. They were history. But I’d like to see them happy again. Regardless of who they spend the rest of their lives with. Who knows, maybe miracle will happen?

I felt like a traitor after I woke up.

Tockie was right. It’s about time.
