Out with the old, In with the New

New blogskin everyone!

It's a little different from the usual blogskin. Usually I just grab a ready-made blogskin. Now I decide to try to make it look more, urm, original? Well, actually it's not that original since I took the wallpaper from deviantart. lol. I shall remember to credit that person later. :)

Thought the wallpaper looks a bit dull so I edited it with XiuXiu. Best photo editer ever! Although I have to face some limitations to it since it's in Chinese, lol. I wish they would create an English version. Perhaps someday huh?

Tell me what you think about my blogskin. Does it look alright? Do you find it hard reading some of the things especially the About Me section and etc? If you do, let me know then I'll make the necessary changes. :)

Farewell 1B

Here's a post I wrote when we first moved in. Gosh, time flies. *Click here* Just so you know, we actually broke rule number 4, 5 and 6! LOL. Oh and I should warn you that this post is combined with camwhore pictures. lol. We were so innocent back then!

As we bid farewell to 1B, I realise that we also bid farewell to our Uni years.


2 and a half years in that apartment. How can we forget all those memories?

This is the place where we crammed for our final exam...

The picture on the bottom right, yes, that's my studying place. very messy i know.

Couldn't resist taking pictures of us (I'm excluded since I'm the camera lady. lol.) cramming for our final exam.

This is the place where we...

*Do our make up
*Do our facial routine
*Helped our friends with their make up (remember that time we helped Dara's friends with their make up - well, I wasn't helping much. Just helped by checking the eye shadow colour. Applying the make up is all Steph and Chai Yung work.)
*Blow Dry our hair
*Curl our hair
*Do our random hairstyles when we're bored (Chai Yung!)

This is where Steph, Sally and I (teddy too) would share our crazy moments together, share our secrets, quarrel, argue, everything...

*sigh* I will miss this bed ;(

And finally.. This is the place where we...

*Prepared so many yummy food
*Made KimChi for the FIRST TIME!
*My friends prepared meals for me cos they knew my health wasn't doing so well ^^ You all are so awesome *heart*
*Cooked Porridge for anyone who isn't feeling well
*Spent so much time cleaning the kitchen too (EW!)
*Left so many expired canned food in the cupboard and end up we have to throw them (students, sigh, they never learn do they? tsk tsk.. :P)

Oh we had so many, many, many memories.. We celebrated teddy's Birthday, Pamela's Birthday, rehearsed for Capstone 1 presentation (Steph and I) and SO much more!

Well, 1B of Kenyalang Court, I had lots of memories together with you. It's time to leave and prepare to work. The thought of working scares me a lot. I wasn't scared at first but I am now. With the experience I had from University Life, I hope I'm prepared to work. Writing this post makes me sad again, somehow. =(

I've got to go now. Time for bed. Good night!

I won!

I can't believe that I actually won a 10% discount voucher(yes, i know only 10%) from West Fashion Online! :D

So yea, that'll explains the previous post. I shall use it when I get my very first paycheck. :)

THANK YOU SO MUCH,
WEST FASHION ONLINE!

I wish I can be Forever 21...

Have you ever heard of Forever 21?

Well, honestly, I heard about Forever 21 from my BFF and I know she ADORES all items from this brand. When she showed me a bag that she bought from Forever 21, I loved it too!

I'm from Sarawak and I'm really disappointed that there is no Forever 21 shop here. :( I remembered there was this time when my friends and I wanted to buy a Birthday gift for our BFF but we couldn't find the brand that she wants ( which is Forever 21, of course.)

Then I came across this site:

www.westfashion.net

Here, you can purchase any items that you want from Forever 21! :D

It's easier if you register with them though..

With the shopping cart tool, just click the item that you want from the website and then 'click' Add to Cart

Like this!

And then all your items will be shown on the top right hand corner..


I really like the way everything is grouped into categories like this. It's very organised isn't it? Easy browsing this way coz u don't have to keep clicking that 'next' button till u see something that u like..

Honestly I've never bought anything from this online store but I can tell 100% that I can trust this website. I know you're thinking, why do you trust this store so much? Wellll.....

I don't know about you but these two things from this website was convincing enough for me! :)

I don't want to say much cause I want YOU to find out about this website more. okay, you can stop reading my blog post now and head over to www.westfashion.net and start shopping!!

Farewell

This post is specially dedicated to my loyal, obedient dog, Ah Bi

Dear Ah Bi,

I still remember how you became my pet. It was a few days or a few weeks after we moved to our new house. You were there among the grass. Always poking your cute head out from among the tall grass. I noticed you & I thought you were simply adorable!! From that day onwards, I always walk outside and give you food. Your favourite of all was chicken bones. You were talented in eating chicken bones. You ate carefully, chewed the insides of the bone first then later spit out the sharp edges. People say, don't feed bones to your dog. But you were a pro at eating bones! You also happen to be a survivor, you fell sick a couple of times and had a few near death experience yet you fought really hard to stay alive.

I remember how you like people to pet your head, How you Love people scratching behind your ear. :)

I remember the way you always come and wag your tail to greet us when we reach home. I love the way you do that. I was really sad you weren't there to do that today. I miss you already :(

I remember how you bit the Meter Reader cause you thought he was going to hurt your puppies. And dad had to send him to the clinic for a shot.

I remember those three puppies you first had! Oh gosh they were so cute!! And some of them looks like you. I remember how excited and happy I was. It was amazing. :)

I'm sorry we had to put you to sleep. You were suffering way too much. I guess we just can't bear to see you suffer much longer. It is time for you to go to a better place. I wish I'm there to send you off. But I know, I don't think I can handle it. I might even stop the doctor from putting you to sleep. When I heard what my dad said on the phone when I woke up this morning, I hoped that I was just having a nightmare. I even went back to sleep hoping it really was a nightmare. Unfortunately, it wasn't! :(

I want you to know that you've been amazing. For 13 years I've had you as my pet, I shall always, always remember how special you were to me. It is very surprising that I didn't cry yet. Perhaps part of me don't want to accept it or perhaps realization just hasn't sink in yet. Or Perhaps it is because I knew that you are no longer suffering. Whichever reason it is, I want you to know that no matter what, I will always love you.

Thank you Ah Bi for being my faithful, loving dog, I love you very much and you will be missed.

Exam Period

I know I haven't been blogging in ages! I feel like this is the longest since I last updated my blog, sorry dear blog.

The last time I blogged was in September. Seems like I've lost the inspiration to write. The last "blog" I wrote was for my Industry Consulting Project a.k.a. Final Year Project. Don't get me started on how stressful it was.. Urgh!

Anyways, I'm about to sit for the final 2 papers of my University life. On the 13 and 14 of December to be exact. Therefore, I felt like this is something to blog about. Yea, wow rite? 3 years passed by just like that.

Also means I'm going to move out.
BFFs going to move out.
#damnemo

Honestly, I don't really have the mood to study. But have to force myself. I don't want my university life to end. But gotta move on with life huh? =(

On a completely unrelated note or maybe related la, I don't know.

Here's some pictures of us while we wait for our noodle at the INFAMOUS-NEED-TO-WAIT-ONE-HOUR-PLUS-PLACE.

You only get to see pictures like this on my blog cos I won't post them up on facebook.

Chaiyung - control 'ayu' lol

Finally, Teddy emo. cos I'm emo. pfft.

Okay, even though I really want to continue to blog, I've got to continue studying this:

yes, exactly how my Advanced Finance textbook looks like.

Haih, regrets taking finance as my minor now. I knew I would regret it when I select it as my minor. God knows why I still pick it. #imustbecrazy

I should blog more right? I just realised I was pretty active in blogging in 2009.

Right, well. ADVANCED FINANCE! bye now!
