It’s a 3-day week for me ^^ Am on leave on Thursday, Jocey and I will be in Malacca til Sunday for Raya celebrations with Ika. For now, busy busy… Need to pack, need to bake! Will blog all about the trip when I’m back. Til then, happy holidays and Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri to all my Muslim friends ^^

Introducing my pet nephew, Ricardo Ho King Lun, born 6th July 2010. First child of my pet brother, congratulations to Clinston and wife Hannah!

Isn’t he precious?? It’s been yeeears since I’ve seen a newborn baby. Usually I see the kid when they’re at least a month old. OMG the sweetheart is just 4 days old XD I’m glad I decided to visit mama and baby the following day after they got discharged from hospital. Sooo tiny! And fragile. My goodness, so sweet, I love him <3

It’s Chinese New Year eve! What makes this year so special is that in 2010, CNY coincides with Valentine’s day. This will probably never happen again in a long long time! Most of my chinese friends have a dilemma of being unable to celebrate V-day because they have to be home for CNY. Therefore, most of them had celebrated V-day earlier before they had to head back to their hometowns for CNY. However, I don’t have that problem lol.

For one, I don’t have a hometown to go back to, and Darling doesn’t go back to his hometown so early into CNY. So, despite being CNY, I’m still free at night to see him for V-day lol. Probably nothing V-day about our date tomorrow, but doesn’t matter. V-day is overrated and commercialised anyway. I just wanna spend it with my loved one ^^

About 10 minutes more before we officially enter the year of the Tiger. May the roaring new year be blessed with the best of luck for everyone! Let me have my ‘pet’ tigers wish you. Introducing Earthquake, Avalanche, and Hurricane, respectively:

Just a ‘quick’ recap on last week, since it’s been a week since the last posting.

So the siblings arrived back home on Tuesday night, wheeee~ Weird, I don’t get that excitment that I thought I would when I see my siblings. Not that I was indifferent either, just that there wasn’t thaaaaat much excitment. Perhaps cause it wasn’t thaaaat long ago that I saw them haha. Less than 5 months since we bade goodbye at Melbourne airport? I didn’t see them til later at night, cause I was out with the chicas in a… deep… erm, emotional discussion, over Pizza Hut dinner.

Speaking of chicas. Miss them so much. Another one of them times that I wish they still live in Melawati. I’m enjoying these deep emo discussions with my girls. We didn’t used to share things out like this with each other, until recently. Also we didn’t dare to marah each other for shit until recently haha XD Oh how we have grown… Grown more mature, grown closer together. Looking forward to planning a sleepover soon, so that we can talk for hours through the night without worrying about curfew lol.

Work last week was… wow. I was alone in the office most of the time and in charge of Kelvin’s stuff cause he went outstation for 3 days. Stock was going out, and more stock was coming in, til there was hardly space in the office. Even the meeting room was full. And because I had to handle this AND my own work, I was quite tired last week. I even had Darling come fetch me to Pertama Complex on my work errand, cause I know shit about where it is. And I’m so glad I insisted that he went with me instead of trying to go alone. Cause damn, that area sure is confusing, the roads. Also the basement parking, why so many Rempits gathered there?? And the construction of the building, aiyo what goes where? The levels are so weirdly confusing. Or confusingly weird. Lol.

Gossip circulated. Ok sure, so I did say that I didn’t know how to manage the inventories coming in and out, and I was worried that I’d make a mistake. But I did NOT say that it wouldn’t be my fault if something fucked up! I mean, of course it’d be my fault, duh. If something fucked up, then I’m fucked up la, cause I was in charge, no? Word sure spread quickly. It came out from my lips, travelled through a couple of lips, evolved, and found its way back to my ears. Now, a week later, it’s still going around, my colleague being drilled for leaving the office to me. Ok, I admit I wasn’t happy at that time too. But it’s over, nothing went wrong, so forget about it. Can’t they just… let it go? Some people seriously have nothing better to do.

On Saturday, Darling had a BBQ party at home to celebrate his birthday. He made a makeshift barbecue pit from bricks and soil base. Not bad lol. So many of his family and relatives came. I don’t know who is who lol. I think they also don’t know who I am. They must be wondering who is this female stranger doing in the house. It suddenly rained heavily in the midst of barbecuing… Potong stim! Half an hour later the rain reduced enough and Darling restarted the fire. Soon enough, we could continue our BBQ~! Hailey got lots of snacks lol. Getting fat~

On Sunday noon, Darling drove me to Jaya One to attend my younger pet brother Clinston’s wedding luncheon. First time attending a wedding luncheon, so weird. It’s like, I just woke up, got ready, and then I was at a chinese restaurant for a wedding. Clinston offered cocktail. I gave him a blur look. Are you kidding? I just woke up and I haven’t eaten anything. I only had a few sips of wine during the toasting session. The funny part of the wedding is… Clinston and wife were slow dancing on stage, then the sound of record scratching, then 3 guys from Inversion popped out and danced a hiphop routine. Then song changed again, and Clinston went onstage with the 3 dancers. What they did knocked my socks off! They danced to Wondergirls (Korean girl band)… Nobodeh nobodeh but chu~! Hilarious and random as heck XD

As soon as the wedding was over, Darling came to fetch me and I went back to his house to change. Before that, I gave Hailey a bath first. She was so dirty from the BBQ day. Rain, dirt, coal ashes… Then played with her for a while. Wow she’s really growing so fast! And heavy haha. Then it’s my turn to take a bath. It was Darling actual birthday, so I took him to Hartamas Shopping Centre (Plaza Damas) to have a japanese dinner at Rakuzen. Ordered so much food, we were super full after the meal! Then he was laughing so hard til his stomach hurt, so suffering haha. I haven’t seen him laugh so hard before XD Well, happy birthday to my Darling. I hope he enjoyed the simple celebration with me.

So that was what happened last week. Back to work already, and I’ve been busy again. Yay? Lol, sure. Still better than having nothing to do. And what’s going on this week? Hmm, nothing. Thaipusam is on Saturday, but I’m not sure if I have the day off or not. But Monday is off for sure, yay! Federal Day hehe XD Gosh I gotta continue spring cleaning. My wardrobe is a mess!

A very Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year ^^

Hope everyone is having a wonderful closing for 2009. May your 2010 be blessed with greater things

Lots of love,
Jules~

It’s Christmas this weekend. Have you visited the malls and see the decorations this year?

Midvalley:

1 Utama:

Sunway Pyramid:

Met up with my younger pet brother, Clinston, last weekend after a looong time. Things sure have changed with our lives. I’ve gotten a new boyfriend, and he’s getting married end of next month. What a suprise, but I’m happy for him and bride-to-be Hannah, whom I’ve yet to meet. Congratulations, Di!

Hey everyone! Can’t type long, just sending my regards and love to everyone back at home I’ve safely arrived in Melbourne last night. And it’s COLD. To the locals it’s quite warm already, but I don’t care what they say, it’s still COLD, bitch Lol… Ok, that’s all I have time to blog for now, til the next time

It’s the day of the colours red and pink shades decorating malls and public spots. The day of overpriced roses in pretty bouquets wrapped with sweet glittery paper, alternatively with tiny teddy bears or candy instead of flowers. The day of fattening fancy-shaped chocolate candies packed in a heart-shaped box with a pink ribbon. The day of worthless soft toys so oversized that it needs its own seat at the restaurant/movie. The day of crowded malls full of couples galore queueing up for a seemingly romantic dinner-for-two at fancy restaurants which stopped their usual menu for special couple package dinners for today. Did I miss out anything? XD

Oh yeah. It’s also the day that singles hate the most lol. I don’t get it. This day is so overrated yet people love it. Except when it’s actually SAD (Singles Awareness Day).

Happy Valentine’s Day, my lovelies <3

This year’s CNY (indoor) decors. Only 3 malls, cause I haven’t had the chance to drop by 1utama and Sunway Pyramid.

KLCC: A giant lantern and 2 giant scrolls (a bit pathetic-looking).

Pavillion: Cherry blossom trees all over the place!

Gardens @Midvalley: Hanging cherry blossom trees with lanterns. My personal fave!

Happy Lunar New Year, everyone!
