::Preserving the Day::

Well, I’m persevering the day today. My chances for success are iffy, but hey, you never know. Miracles have been known to happen -- but usually only to people who deserve 'em. Me, on the other hand, deserve nothing. So, I’m getting used to it.

Am baffled on my own schedule whether I could or couldn’t join in our gathering tomorrow. I always encounter problems when it’s last minute. Even last year, I didn’t managed to joined in the gathering karaoke-ing with them. Tsk…tsk…tsk.. What a pity!

I hope by preserving the day today, gives me the ultimate time to attend the gathering and join in the fun of bbq-ing~winks~

When I told Mom-3 days before- that I was going for a gathering her long face showed of disagreement.
I understand the situation. No one’s babysitting my 2 lil siblings who are 12 and 8 years old. Mom goes off to work ­­till 5pm and only can I get to go when Mom’s around the house. And Dad on the other hand is flying off to KL for a meeting today. Pity him. Gave him a hug before he left this mo’- I haven’t even washed my face hahahahaaah….Well, there goes my challenge!

So, today, I changed my mind of not going to KK which is a 2 and-a- half hours from here. I booked the bus ticket for tomorrow’s trip. So, that my lil siblings could make it throughout the day tomorrow without anyone parenting them. Well, they are actually used to staying both together in the house while mom and dad is off to work and only comes back in the evening. (I’m not staying with them during school days as I’m working quite far from the family. I only come back for the holidays.) No babysitter’s needed. However, having me here is a must. Well, that I understand. Mom just wants me around the house ~I know that~ *smile*

By hook or by crook I must go!! As I had promised earlier with friends of mine. So, I guess it wouldn’t be very nice calling off last minute huh.

I haven’t taken a bus since I have my own car and wheels to steer. But my car was sent to the workshop by my fiancé to make over. You know-Guys…
~It’s a xmas present~ And I can’t wait to see the NEW look! But, I guess it’ll be hold up for another 2 months. It would no longer be a xmas present haahaha.. Valentine present will suit that!

I felt funny as now I had to take a bus which limits my trips and expands my walking exercises hehehehe.. I remembered being like this during my teens and I survived! I guess I will again heheheh..

Uncle Lee, an awesome blogger – had gone through many experiences and he had gone thru thick and thin of this challenging live. He made it and is now rich! Money and opportunities didn’t came down from the sky he struggled for it! His stories are fascinating and should be a lesson to the younger ones like me!

Complaining of just getting on the bus is ridiculous! Not that I’m rich but I’m just too indulged possessing the good life wahaahhaha… NOT!

::Happy Graduation::

At last, a friend of mine who was taking up the same course as i was during our Uni has finally GRADUATED. And now is a MAster holder in TESOL.

So that means, she teaches english to those who are non-speaker of English.

And now she was offered being a lecturer there.

Howd i wished i could pursue my MASTER there too..

~Fingers cross~

Errrmm, giving it another thought, i guess NOT! hahahahah

This beautiful lass has her sweet smiles carrying with her just everywhere she would go.

She's so friendly and a down to earth lass-just by looking at her personalty and how she goes about when she talks to people.

I merely know her as she was frequently to be seen around the campus and had never had the time to chit chat.

She wasn't my classmate nor was she my friend during those 2 years in the camp.

However, i found that she's just a humble person who could actually talk with anybody and burst her laughs-not knowing who she was talking to..

I judged her wrong back then! Hehehehehe...Sorry Dear!

Met her during our graduation day and she just chatted with me like 'who cares who you are'!

She's so friendly and beautiful!

Finishing her degree level in a local university in Shah Alam, led her working for quite sometime writing journals(i forgot-please help me get this right) and pursue her master in States(Washington)....

Looking at my chat list friends last night, she was online and clicked her name and her page popped out. What surprised me was she was using a rob..And i immediately asked her 'You've graduated?! Without saying the simple hi and what not of greeting hehehehe...So rude of me!

And here below i would love to present the Lovely Ms.Laraa:)

::All the best dear::

::Confession::

At last, i went for confession! It was the last day for this week. I thought of going last Thursday but many things were to attend and i couldn't make it till today. Well, thanks God, I did and managed before Xmas ..Yeah!

Happy advance Xmas to all! My friends and foster family in States! Love ya'll so much!

::Hair::

I've been longing to straightened my hair since last year as i had my curls danggling on my scalp for almost 2 years. And now its touching on my butt line. (To be exact! Lol)

So, i went to the Saloon right after Mass ended.

As i was going out from the church, saw a friend of mine Irwan Buing! The one i Blogged about this month! With his beloved wife Mrs. Buing!

Shaked hands, chit chat and left.

.

.

Went to the saloon! Yeah! I'm almost to accomplish what i wished for.

Came in! And wow! There were many ladies on the 2 short benches waiting for their turn to get a hair cut or i guess, getting straightened hair like me!

I had to wait almost 30 minutes to get my butt on that seat and ready to pamper my hair with chemicals hahahahaha.. I guess it might be choking by now! But don't worry i gave it a delicate treatment hair right after the chemicals were busy making my strings of hair their permenant place to reside on. I hope that reduces the pain! Ahakz!:p

.

.

Goood-bye Mrs.Curly aka Simba...

.

.

.

Welcome Straity! Have a happy 5 months for 2011. Or maybe more.It depends how you can make this one lady here pretty in her stressful days! :p
If you managed! You'll live longer hahahaha..

:: I'm really gonna miss my curls! Definitely!!!

:: Honey! I know you prefer me in straights,right?

.:Fell for him once:.

Wow! After those years, now they are finally engaged! The once handsome Prince William is now engaged with Kate Middleton a commoner.

Prince William was my one Fav years back during Backstreet boys were still on the road of fame!! But now, hehehehhe...He's getting older and and i'm aging. The feeling of having that blind love towards him had gradually faded as i entered puberty hahahaha....

I guess i matured earlier than i supposed too.Lol!

Before Princess Diana was still alive i adored him for his naiveness and his cuteness. I even remembered of buying a mag which he appeared on. And there was only one picture of him in that mag! I died for him! Hahhahah... Kids!

Well, now! It seems that he's getting his father's features and i feel like im favouring his dad! ooops! Camella Parker will shoot me! Lol!

Take a look!

Erm..After giving it another look, I guess, they only share the same balded side hair zone hehehehe...

~He's still covered with hair during his teens~

This! I loike! :p

Hehehehhe

(Looks very charming here)

Selling of Yamaha Ego s-2010

My brother Russell is selling off his Yamaha Ego S 2010 via mudah.my.

So as you click on 'Yamaha Ego S 2010, you'll be linked to the page and you could see the details of the scooter itself.

Price: Rm3300(can be negotiated)

Oh My! The Car has been stolen!

I was roughly having my sweet time checking on things via the internet while reading Sarah's novel book called 'The Curse of the Hillcrest Hotel'.

Sarah is one of my foster family back in states and it was so kind of her to email her novel to me.

Am now still stucked reading Chapter 7. Had my daily basis reading it but there were other things i need to mend before clearing my time to read. So ill always end up in this Chapter 7. Re-reading from where i left.

And it's a good story to be read. I don't have to buy any books from now on. Wait till i finished reading this one! :p

As i was cruising on the internet and reading Sarah's novel from the computer, Dad called me up saying that his car was towed. Not that he ended up in an accident or the car broke hahahhaah... But, the bank took the car from him while he was busy having a meeting at Sutera Pacific. I stopped from what i was doing. I was shocked and giving it a gulped, i whispered to myself "Here we go again ".

Always problems, problems, probelms...

He was asking me whether i had any cash which he demanded on. Unfortunately, i do not have much cash which he asked for- which helps more on keeping the burden.

So, there we are in a family dilemma.

Being the eldest, i called My Fiance for SOS help. He was looking for ways and i on the other hand would give up all my salary to pay dad's debt.

It's so sad especially when Christmas is just around the corner. Well, i hope my good deeds will be returned into my Christmas present.Lol!

AND i hope what i did would be appreciated by him.

I've met people who are ungrateful and my dad is under that category. The thing is, He's my family member. Which where a member in the family should never ever be so calculative 'Like he is'.

. Helping him is quite a burden to me.

Well, i could babble here and make it a novel.

But then again, i guess let that be my endurance in life.

These are listed cars which we have at home.

Even the garage couldn't afford to welcome them. Lol!

~Credits to pictures i goggled down from yahoo~

In reality, our Trooper, Hilux and Lexus are in White except for the Waja and The old GX.

1.Trooper Isuzu-Broken down.Dad had established it as his Storage for tiles. Mean Old Man!

2. Toyota Ninja GX-Has quite a few problems.... Seldom used.

3. Waja(sedan)-Dad bought it to replaced our old Proton Saga which was taken by the Bank.Oops!

4. Mom's 4x4 Hilux- Being rented to pay the Waja( Dad can no longer afford to pay) Gees!

5.The New Lexus-Ok! No comment!

~So, What's left here at home? The old Trooper which can no longer be generated. It's dead! Wahahahha.... And the Old Ninja GX-which i hate driving it!

And the new white Lexus~

Now that Dad's stranded in KK! Mom had to drive all the way to KK to fetch that wretch Mr.Daddy.. Hayoooo!!

~I was actually imagining the whole scene where Dad just finished meeting and went out from the meeting room, proudly walking to his car and then found out the car wasn't there. He goes "Oh Goodness! My car has been stolen!" 'Police!!!!! Help me find my car.'

The police officer," Erm, sir. I guess your car is not stolen"

He -in a panick state walking up and down holding his head-as those gamblers who lost RM1million in a day hahahahah.

The police continues,"You're car has been taken away by the bank." And i would like to sue you for having an expired Road Tax.

~Gosh! Hilarious....~

I am just imagining. This is not what had happened hehehhehee..

♥New Layout♥

Yesterday,the day after yesterday and the day after the day of yesterday, i was busy cruising off new templates for my blog.

Early morning, i will just get my lappy- on it! waaaaaait... and i'm on the internet!

Sitting in the kitchen helped me alot to kill a few birds with a stone.

While waiting pages to upload, i'll quickly go to the sink and wash the dishes, letting the water run in the washing machine, sweeping the floor- And then come right back to my precious seat. Waiting for another web to upload,to give it a shine look-i mopped the floor. Take a few onions and chopped it to be used later in my cooking.

Come back to my seat, eyeing on a few templates, trying it ooout...and Nope! -Gave another look on the rest, download the templates and upload it on my blog -

While the page was uploading to see how my blog would look like-

went to the fridge and get a few things to cook.

Prepare.Cook.Eat.Done Washing.

(Signal is very veeerry looooow here)

It depends on the weather too..

.

.

Once i saw my page, it was fantastic! But after giving it another look, it was dull! As if the owner of this blog has no spice of life.

Colors play a main role to whom we are. And having just this, wasn't giving me a spec of satisfaction.

Hunting down templates and its design that really suits me isn't that EASY MEASY at all. I thot of giving up....

After opening up one template to another, one website to another website, was just giving me much headache as the templates were nice but the design just dosen't hit the nail. On the other hand, the design was totally the one i liked but it happened that the buttons were not functioning.

OR I guess i just didn't managed to download the full xml.folder.

Gees! Xml??? RAR??? W.ZIP???

Gawd! I'm no good in this techy world. Having the basic knowledge of computers dosen't help much to what i really wanted.

I'm really biting off than i could chew!

~Sighing~

This kitchen seat has been my loyal comforter as i had been residing on it since 2 days ago. Plus today, i'm sure it'll be a looong day to get things straight.

Copying and pasting the codes from my previous blog.

I would like to say thank you so much for 'Annieming' for her wonderful help and guidance to play with the codes. I never thought of changing the codes. It was so not my language..heheheheh.

Thanks so Much!

I ♥ u my dear friend!

~Walah! This is my new layout~

But, I'm still wondering of getting a new one! Lol..

~And here was when i panicked and sweat! The codes broke! I didn't know where i did wrong, i cried. Left my lappy! And went for a simple walk in our 2 big halls of living room. The signal was getting ugly. I tried whether i could repair it or not~

This is where i really need Annie! I lost hope!

Then, i went to hunt down another new template! ~I liked the color! It just brightens up the eye. However, im not into the way the post is laid out. I love my post to be read fully. This template only gives you half of the story and therefore to read more we need to click on the button 'read more'. Ugh! I hate doing that when reading! I love reading a post without encountering any difficulties. Even though 'clicking' isnt that hard..But then again it conjures a gap of pause..,right? Hehheehe..

So, in the meantime, i'm staying put to this template and design.

P/s: I'm going for a confession today! Urm..now! Where did i kept that list of sins of mine??

CHRISTMAS GIVE AWAY

http://annieming.blogspot.com/2010/11/my-christmas-giveaway.html

Hi there folks!
I'm a non hi-tech girl. Who doesn't know how to use photoshop or whatever
software to edit pictures.
I haven't been in this editing pictures for years, after for so long since i was in my Uni life. Lol!

Felt bad about that, as i'm occupied with other things...
It's like you having a driving licence to drive and you drove a car almost everyday in your life in those years but then you stopped driving for quite some time.Let say 3 years!. And when you get hold on to it again, that's when you have no courage to drive a car, as if you never had drove one.
So, same thing goes with me about this editing pictures using the photoscape software which i deliberately downloaded via the internet.

It took me almost 2 days to download such software as the signal here is soooo low.
Last night, i managed to dowload it from 1%, 2%...10%,20%...40%,50%, 60%....79% and DANG!

I lose connection! And i lose hope... But had the zest to to do it again this morning!Lol!

So, i took a long look at how the software goes about. I read and re-read, opened and re-opened one button to another. I was at wits end. I had no idea what was in front of my eyes.
I didn't know how to execute the software. Where to add my photos, where should i edit, where and where ...Oh gosh! I was in dilemma.

I got hold onto my cousin on FB who is also joining in, and she told me how i should go about it,- but i can't recalled hahahhaha

I'm an absent-minded..
So, i 'radu' sajalah(in english just go with it).. Oh, one more thing to tell how weak i am at this- I cried after i mistakenly press the wrong button and my picture turned into something i loath..It wasn't actually what i wanted. BUT! I do not know how to re-do it wahahahahahha..

FYI, i'm actually joining a contest which is carried out by my former 6 years classmate.
http://annieming.blogspot.com/2010/11/my-christmas-giveaway.html
She provided us with hats to wear which are red and pink!
So, we had to put on her hats to our picture.
Meaning to say editing is coming in..
Once we had done that, then we should as creatively conjure up xmas theme in our picture.
(Tried that-but things were out of my hand as i do not know how to re-do.Woots!)
Then, we should submit our permalink by dropping comments in this post.

~Contest period: 26 Nov-23 Dec 2010
http://annieming.blogspot.com/2010/11/my-christmas-giveaway.html

Just before that, i need to check on my check list!

Annieming says:
1. Be my follower. (ok)
2. Like AnnieMing on Facebook. (ok)
3. Write an entry with your photo and tell a bit about this contest. (ok)
4. Put my contest badge on your blog and link to this post. (ok)

So, here's what i had done:

.:Left^-^Heather:.
.:Center^-^Noel:.

.:Right^-^Get:.

This are my lovely siblings... They are just the ones who lightens up my day!

And also who give me such headaches during phone calls..

"Kak! Beli ini ah!" & "Kak, Beli saya itu ah!"

(Eng: Sis! Pleas buy me ______(stating what they want)

So, everytime i came back from Tawau, i'm sure to have things wrapped up for these 2 rascals.

Behind the scene: Noel hates to be in the center!

Noel: I don't want to be in the center!

Heather: Buat sajalah! Ko nie!=Just do it!

Get: Cepat lah!! kena pasang timer nie= Hurry! The timer is on!

Noel: Sa malas oh kena impit sama perempuan...=I hate to be sandwiched by girls...

I had trouble getting Noel to be in the middle...

Note: As i looked through, i didn't realized that i've written Annie's link for 3 times wahahahhaha...

Ini betul2 mau promote sudah ni!

Wedding of the Year!

Shirley Sukim Sarat(oyo) and Irwan Buing has been solemnized on the 27th.Dec.2010.

I couldn't make it to her 'Wedding of the Year'.

As, i was stucked with the 3-day course induction which i HAD to attend.

I couldn't explain how much i regretted for not attending.

I was told by friends that her wedding was a blast and they had fun.

Magician also showed up to entertain people who came:)

And at night, there were fireworks rocketing up to the sky.

I'm sure it was a very hard planning and thumbs up to them.

I haven't asked Oyo's permission whether or not i could write up on her.

Hope she won't get aggravated.

And, I'm keeping my fingers cross-That she won't!

Let me tell you guys about her:

Little did i know, this young and once the winner of the Unduk Ngadau of District level was once my flower girl partner during my Uncle's wedding in....~thinking what year was it~ Darn! Can't recall! Anyways, we only met on that occasion and weren't that close. As we grew up, i began to lose memories of what she looks like. But, the eyes remain unstill and purely the same! Met her back in Frienddster after for so many years and began collecting the memories back:)

And who knows..Now She's MARRIED!

On the other hand, Irwan was my senior back in high school years:)

I still remembered our batch eyeing on him. We were still young though(budak-budak).Lol!

One thing i remembered this one handsome guy was when i was in the hospital. He care to come and pay me a visit which was one thing i appreciated after having to stay there for a few nights.

I asked him to bring a few books so that i could spend my time reading. AND HE DID! The next day, he came with 2 books, i guess. Can't remember! But. i had fun reading! I still remembered th story. Even while i'm writing down these sentences, the line of the story is playing in my head as if i'm watching a tv.Lol!

Well, bottom line they are nice sweet people to be friends with:)

I hoped and wished them the best in their lifes and years ahead xoxo...

And here are pictures where i took from here and there from friends facebook.

~The Lundayeh tribe costume~

She looks elegant and simple in that costume. Same goes to he husband:)

~Their theme was orang~
