IT'S NEW YEAR'S EVE!

Good bye 2012,
You've served me well.

Year 2012 was great year. I've learned more than I got from the previous year.
It's the 21st year of my life journey.
If I don't learn anything by this long, I wouldn't be able to face myself anymore.

Well, let's see what happened to me throughout this year..
Hmm...
I started my internship for about 3 months plus in the company which I'm currently a permanent at.
Learned on Android development during my intern, develop more after that.
Learned quite a lot from my seniors here.

Went to US.. well, this.. I kind of regret.
But it was a nice experience.
But I wouldn't go back there.
It has become one of my bitter memories.
As this year going to pass, I'm letting this memory die as the past too.
So it's not worth for me telling what happened.

Back to Malaysia and started working as a permanent,
I get to know and hang out with my colleagues,
Went for a trip or two and drink with them.
I officially hung out and drank for the first time after my 21 years old liberty.

Broke up with my ex,
Moved on after learning and had enough of crying.
Guess I was just like any other girls,
I cried. I'm not as tough.
It was hard for me to release.
But knowing it wouldn't last anymore.
Why not just let him go and let him choose?
Besides, I still think I'm not good enough for him anyway.
Probably this was the best decision I've ever made.

Struggled along with Pica during the 3rd quarter of the year,
Pica's gear was dying.
Got it repaired a few times,
But to no avail.
It died once while I'm at MV.
I'll remember that spot where Pica gave up that night.
Let go of Pica to have him retired.
Well, a lot of memories I had with Pica,
raced with friend with it, first car that I drove after I got my license,
drove my family around, friends, relatives,
went outing with it.
Good times. Thanks Pica. I ♥ u.

Came ButtButt, my new MyVi after that.
Budget during the first few months for installments were quite painful.
As I've not accustomed to the budget yet.
But it was all good now,
ButtButt gave a good performance.
The name was given by Jon.

Graduated from my Uni as a degree holder. Wonderful.
Results were good. I'm grateful.

Jon, another wonderful thing that happened to me this year.
Jon and I had so much click when we speak.
We sometimes think the same thing.
Blurting out the same word at the same time.
It not just a one time thing. It happened so many times.
We called it "jinx" when we said the same thing at the same time.
and we had so many double jinx and triple jinx that now,
not saying the "jinx" could be considered a jinx.=P
Well, that means we've owed each other so many treats of coke.
It's not just that. He took good care of me. Knows the way to make me smile when I'm having bad day, and makes me smile on every other days.
Well, I could go on and on, but I wouldn't want anyone to get goosebumps.

Jon brings me out to meet with his circle of friends.
He's friends are so friendly!
I'm the quiet one still. I'm still shy.
But they're so nice. They include me in in every event they have.
I feel so close to them.
I've joined them for movie outing, and the group got bigger and bigger!
Joined them for trip, events outing.
And I'm joining them tonight for New Year's Eve outing.
AWESOME!

I've been together with Jon for a couple of months now.
Things were going great =)
I hope it would last forever.
Like one of his friends mentioned, "Hope it stays this way forever"
I do hope so ^__^

Thanks dear ♥

One of the sad event.This year mom's health got worse too..
I do hope that in the year 2013, her health would get better.
T_T

Enough of sad event,
20122012, Eric got married!
Finally, one of  my bro got married!
I SHALL GET ANGPAO SOON!
I hope :x
I WANNA GET DUIT RAYA TOO!♥
Anyway bro,
I wish you all the best with sis in law!

AND WE SHALL NOW WELCOME 2013

Birthday!

Randomly, last Friday was some of my colleague's last lunch of the year in the office.
That includes dearie's too! *jelly*
I still got Monday of the 31st Dec.

Freaking new year's eve and I'm working. T_T

Anyway, that noon, we went out lunch with the usual gang and with LinMing , PingLi and CK
We went to Kung fu Paradise at MV.

I don't really fancy the food there tho.
Maybe because I din eat what's famous there, the cheese baked rice.
I didn't ask the rest how's theirs though.

Jon and I ordered some spicy noodle soup and dry noodle.

The spicy noodle soup tasted like the typical instant noodle curry flavored seasoning,
The dry noodle tasted like the typical "Mee goreng" seasoning.

It's a disappointment though because it's not worth the price I paid then.

Nevertheless, lunch was on Jon. MUAHAHAHHAH!!
Because I made a deal with him to pay for dinner :P

That night, we went over to Suki Ya at Paradigm mall to celebrate Isaac's birthday!
Met up with E, ZD, Nic, V, and Isaac of course, and Kelvin who came late :P
Had a great dinner with free flow of meat.
I'm getting tired of lamb and beef for the moment now.

Took a picture while he didn't notice it.

After the meal,
It was the cake time again!
CAKEEEEEE...
Most of us are so full, that we didn't even eat a slice of it.

1..2..3 Look here Isaac, say fishy!

Happy birthday, Isaac! ^^

After dinner, we were looking for place to hang out after such a bloated meal.
And we decided to watch movie instead, Upside Down.

The movie was rather interesting,
Jon was discussing with Kelvin about the scientific facts.
I'm just trying to understand the un-understandable.
It was a good movie. With good imagination.

We part ways after the movie ended at around one plus am.
So tiring. but yet fun!

Still, I'm gonna stay far away from beef and lamb for the time being.

Have a blessed Christmas !

Opps, maybe I'm a bit too late to wish everyone.
But I do wish you have a great one. ^_^

Anyway, I had a great one myself.
It was my first time joining a Christmas party.

On the day before, that is, 23rd Dec, dearie and I went for a movie with E and ZD at Aeon Cheras Selatan
It feels damn nostalgic as we reached there.
Parking was quite full though.
But Jon managed to get an illegal parking. :P

So then we met up with both of them to watch CZ12.
THE MOVIE WAS AWESOME!

After lunch we went back to E's place
where we started to prepare the food for the bbq next day.
Marinating the meat, preparation for the lasagna~
The whole process was fun!

The making..
Burnt, but still looks good!

D-Day, 24th Dec,
So that morning Jon fetched me to LRT as I would be going back to his place to freshen up after work.
*He's not working. jelly. *

Fine, anyway, after working whole day, I took LRT and stop at his station.
So efficient! He's already there when I reached ♥
Reached E's place later than the promised time because I was already late when I got back to his place. :(

Jon drove both of us to E's place together with the exchange gifts we bought earlier.

Delicious meal prepared fresh from the grill, thanks to Mr. Orange. :P
And wonderful place for us to hang out, and all the hardwork to manage us by Ms. Elaine.
The meal was awesome especially with the variety of chicken, lamb chop, pork chop, sausages, salad,
and.. *drum rolls*

LASAGNA!

The Food.. the food!!

Lasagna was the kick !
It was so filling that the rest of the food coming after is just too much for us to handle.
And while we were eating, and waiting for the food to go down into our stomach,
Isaac played his guitar and sang.
Kelvin too, played along with his guitar..
Then Jon too.. played along with Isaac with Kelvin's guitar :)
Dearie looked so cool holding the guitar! ^^

Miss XiaoYing's hand there holding the delicious bacon and pork sausages

After the meal, we cleaned the place up,
And went into the house to chill.
Opens up a bottle of red wine, and setup the ps3.

While Jon and Kelvin were busy playing,
Isaac, E and ZD went and prepare for the next surprise event.

Making such a chaos in the living room with the ps3,
I suppose Jon didn't notice the hidden agenda until E went and switch off the lights.
And we all sing the birthday song!

oops. upside down..

Nice chocolate cake there~ <3 p="p">And DING DONG!! It's 12am!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
And so begin our exchange gift!

It was fun, guessing the "Who give you, and why do you think it's that person"
I got my guesses wrong though..
But nevertheless,


THANKS KELVIN FOR THE GIFT!
I shall not forget the reason why you gave it to me. HAHAHAHAHA!!
Jon might not like it.
But we shall see how. :P


AND!!

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO MY BABY, MK ♥

I love you!~ ^^

I see what you used there.

AHA! So you're using SOAP!
Well, this is embarrassing. :x
Government's website getting all these error.

So new, yet so poor

AHH~ Feels like I've been living in the dark ages when I was using Eclipse Juno.

 All got better when I changed to Eclipse Indigo.
Performance is faster, no laggy.

Debugging works perfectly fine,

AND NOW MY CODE WORKS!!!
 PUAHAHAHHAHAHA!!

But Juno is new.. why!!
Why didn't you fix all these before the release. Why.

Oh wells, it's good now ..
It's all good :)

I shall consider returning to Juno when all these are fixed.
It wasn't too bad. UI for Juno look more sophisticated.
Oh well, not for me for this release.

I would choose Indigo over Juno for now.
More stable.

Random promoting

Oh noooo!!
I've actually moved on to XAMFM than SeoulFM ><

There's wider variety of music choice.
Like I've mentioned in the previous post.

Today I've actually browse in their website.
There's application for winamp, win media player, realplayer, quickplayer.
All you have to do is just download the streaming from the web.

It's more developed than SeoulFM.
Probably it's just a new thing for me .. that's why I'm quite excited with this.

Can try at their website.. www.xamfm.com

Yes, I'm blogging again because Juno is letting me down. :(

* Just notice, I've downloaded the one fore win media player..
This one does now show the song/artist.
Which is supported by the online listening :)

Just for this post, I'm gonna share the embed link. :)
Enjoy the music!

Bored. Slow. Yawns.

:bangwall:

Eclipse Juno, please be quick.

Just to change between tabs in editor also took me 30secs per click.

WTF.

Wasting my development time. zzz
That's how I even got the time to blog.

It was much more laggy than yesterday.
*yawns*
The graphic is nice.
But performance is disappointing :(

Anyway, I found another random site that plays Jpop, Kpop, and Cpop!
XAMFM !

I was quite down this morning because Seoul.fm was down.
The site is there, but no music was played.
Playlist keeps moving, but no sound at all.
I'm surely not the only one experiencing it.
I saw in the chatroom people are spamming about it.

So I decided to find an alternative  to my kpop drug! ♥
I like this site now. ^^

I got you!

Finally got my Starbucks organizer last week!



Well, it would't take that long if I didn't insisted on getting a red one.

Starbucks organizer came in 2 different color. Brown and red. I wanted the red one because it looks different than the usual safe colors. I'm going for something more.. adventurous. Something beyond ordinary. Unique. Special! Different!.. Oops. Cut the crap. I liked the red one because it's a different choice of safe color. That's all.

So back to why I got it that late.

To get a free organizer, one is required to purchase 15 Starbucks handcrafted drinks with the card.
After getting the 15drinks, you could claim for a free organizer.

So we actually planned to drink 15 drinks from Starbucks from the very moment we saw the organizer back in JB.

Well, good thing is, this month of December, Starbucks promotion whereby you could get another organizer with just RM 45 extra. Otherwise, an organizer would cost RM 138.

So last weekend, Jon claimed his brown Starbucks planner. While I wanted to purchase a second one with RM 45, the barrister said the red ones were out of stock! It's not available even all around Klang Valley. I was super disappointed.

Then the following weekday, one of my colleague suggested to try the Starbucks at Cyberjaya..
So we went for organizer hunt.
On the way, Jon suggested to stop by at Putrajaya to try our luck.
But indeed, I got my organizer.

So happy ^^
Thanks to dearie who insisted we go and try.

TRIP TRIP and more TRIP!

Heck, yes, I'm way off the time to post about my trip during the November holiday.

It was an alternate days public holiday.
Tuesday and Thursday.
So I decided to take leave on the other remaining days of the week as well.

That was because I was leaving for a trip to JB
LEGOLAND BAYBEHHH!!!
Anyway, Jon and I left to meet up with the rest of them early in the morning.
After rearranging our luggage in the rented car, all 6 of us started our journey to Seremban for breakfast.

Reached Seremban at about an hour plus where we went to the local wet market to have the beef noodles.

After filling up our tummy, we went straight ahead to JB
where our first stop was at a shop selling local biscuits, and some other products.
Then we head on to JPO (Johor Premium Outlet).

Much to my disappointment,
Things there aren't that cheap afterall,
and heck, there was a super long queue out of Coach store.
Not like it's so much cheaper anyway.

There aren't many food choices within our budget there.
So after shopped around - window shopping for most of us, except for V who got his stuff- we went to look for food.
We ended up in food court and grab a meal although it was quite pricey.

Then we head over for some "dessert" coffee! cakes!

And hence, we left JPO after that to check into our rented apartment.
There were 3 rooms which can fit 6 person, 2 bathrooms and a living room!

After we settled down our packages, we went for swimming at the hotel swimming pool.

There were some problem later on that night where all of us smell burnt smell coming out from the air condition.
Spent some time having the technicians to come over to our room to check hence, we're late for dinner.
All of us were exhausted and when we got back,
the problem was not fixed.
We waited, and when the technician were doing his job, the power tripped.
So we waited in dark in the phone light. *technology nowadays*
Kelvin were asleep while waiting though..
So we carried out our plan anyway even with the blackout.

The cake we bought from JPO, CBTL.

And we woke Kelvin up with the birthday song!
There goes his 25th birthday! Sweet 25th. Literally.

After we got the power back on,
all of us went to bed and prepared for the next day!

LEGOLAND!!!

To Legoland WE GO!

After an hour trip, WE HAVE ARRIVED!!

 The crowd was just too overwhelming. Most probably because it's the holiday season..

And finally, I got my annual pass, and we enter the LAND!
Most of the models are made of real lego!
How cool!

 Some of the buildings from the miniland..

he's just exaggerating it. :P

It's so cool to see all these lego models!
In large size.. O_O

Not to forget some of our camwhores while we're there :)

Me and my dear, Jon - thx E for the pic.

Then we continued on some of the ride recommend by my bro..
The observatory tower!
The queue was long!
We waited for about an hour.

Finally, we're in the ride.
Not for long. zzz..
As it went up, we got a jerk of the ride (thinking that it was part of the ride's program)
But we were much disappointed when we heard the announcement regarding their technical problem.

Nevertheless, we were given a pass upon exit,

With the pass, we could play any ride!!
So we used it for the dragon ride.. which i can't remember the name of the ride,
But it was another long queue ones..

Glad that we used that up though.
Otherwise we would have to queue up for another hour just to have a 1 minute ride.
But like what dear said,
If we were to queued up long for a short ride, it wouldn't have been as much fun.
I do feel that that was the best ride so far. haha.

It was raining whole day.
Rained, stop, rained.
But we managed to hide in the Academic there for programming games..
Some robot programming..
It was .. pointless, because it was just for 45 minutes, gained nothing if you won it anyway..
just some sense of satisfaction.
But nevertheless, I was content.

Some random shot took by Kelvin.

Damn. it looked different with flash on. HAHA.

Then we did some last minute shopping in Legoland..
And took a group photo before we left..

And head hotel and waited for XiaoYing to join us - bring us actually,- for dinner!
SEAFOOD!

And some random shot before we left..

With very blurry background of Singapore..

Come to think of it, we we're just so close to Singapore!
I never knew.. until I've visited Johor..

Anyway, that night, XY followed us back to our hotel and we had the 9gag game and drink!
IT WAS FUN!!

The next day was the last day, we head back to KL.
On the way, we stopped by at The Zon to look for some free duty items
but we ended up buying some chocolates and Starbucks.

We stopped by for some stewed duck for brunch,

 with variance of noodles or rice..

And some other side dishes,

 And after brunch, we head over to Jon's sis' house!
AND PLAYED WITH LITTLE ETHAN!! *kyaaa!!!*

And then head home to KL!

We had our dinner together back at ZD's area
and we head back to our respective home.
Tired. Exhausted. Leaving all the memories and excitement, and relax for the rest of the week.

Then on Thursday to Saturday, I followed my parents to Penang!

Parents mission was to break the news regarding bro's wedding,
But my mission was to eat Penang food!

So we left early on Thursday morning,
This time around, we drove ButtButt back Penang!
I drove half of the journey.. *proud*

As we reached, we went to the market near my dad's hometown for brunch.
I wanted to have some Char Kuey Teow.. but it was not open yet.
So I had Hokkien Mee instead (Known as Prawn mee in KL)

 Then after brunch, we checked in to our hotel..
Our room has a seaview!

Dinner that night was with my aunt and cousin..
Some normal Chinese restaurant where we ordered for dishes..
I was craving for some hawker food.. :(

Nevertheless, the day after, we went for hotel breakfast,
and went around in the town for some jeruk and Penang biscuit.

Then we went to look for my another aunt,
and chit chat, then she brought us out for lunch.
Where I had Asam laksa!

That night, although I manage to get some hawker food,
But Char Kuey Teow stall was not open T_T
mission failed.

The next morning, I suggested to go for super tanker!
With the variety of food, I was certain that I would get my mission successful!

With much hope, I got disappointed again,
The stall was not open there as well..
So I had Thai fried rice instead.
As what the community of Foursquare recommended.

It wasn't much to my liking.
Quite plain.
Was still disappointed.

We went back that Saturday..
And I still couldn't taste my Penang Fried Kuey Teow! :(

Oh well,
CNY is coming soon,
and I hope I could make my mission success that time! ^_^
