I've grown up in many ways. Hit a few bumps along the road but hey, what's life without its downs too right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Going into 2011 was a pretty rough patch for me. I was at the lowest point in my life. I was pretty much at a loss in life. I didn't know what I was doing. The experiences in 2010 hit me so hard (expression wise) that I knew at that moment I needed to get my life together. However, on the eve of New Year's, I discovered that one side of my face was becoming numb. The worst five minutes of my life was when I thought I was having a stroke. Seriously, 19 years old and I'm having a damn stroke? Turns out it wasn't a stroke (THANK GOD!). I went to the hospital and the doctor identified it as Bell's Palsy. It's a form of facial paralysis. Apparently it occurs to 20 people in a 100000 population. ARE YOU KIDDING ME. Of all things to suffer. -_- I swear, I was almost at a point of depression. The simplest things like eating, drinking and even smiling was so darn difficult. :( Anyway, after a few weeks of therapy and loads of medication, I recovered fully just in time for Chinese New Year! Yay! Then the rest of the year just flew by pretty great, I must say.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In summary, this year I:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;have learned to speak up for myself (a little more)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;actually lost about 4-5 kilos.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;went to Singapore twice :D&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;studied with more effort and achieved better results than last year.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;learned how to drive around KL without being scared&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;got into my first accident (SOME BUGGER LADY RAN THE TRAFFIC LIGHT AND HIT ME)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;went to Monash Annual Ball and did my own make up which I'm quite proud of. :p&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;didn't get drunk (ACHIEVEMENT)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;fell sick more than usual. (From Bell's Palsy to high fever to H Pylori to worst medication side effect to more fever to more flus). My never ending cycle of being unhealthy. Sigh&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;met the sweetest and most annoying man alive. hahahaha x&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;went a bit health crazy.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;rock climbed for the first time ever!&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;went to Bukit Tinggi&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;visited Universal Studios! :D&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;grew my hair out to the longest length that i've managed to maintain.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;went on a hunt to look for my sister's dog who went missing for a week -_-&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;had my first durian buffet which made me puked. zzz&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;went to Malacca.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div&gt;It's been a good year filled with a lot of love and laughter. HW, my friends and family really made my year a good one :)&amp;nbsp;Let's make next year even better. Hehe.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A collage of what has happened in 2011 for me:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

I'm sick of this.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4901934049018495242-6644598311445882599?l=strippedperfection.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://strippedperfection.blogspot.com/feeds/6644598311445882599/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4901934049018495242&amp;postID=6644598311445882599' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4901934049018495242/posts/default/6644598311445882599'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4901934049018495242/posts/default/6644598311445882599'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://strippedperfection.blogspot.com/2011/10/please-let-me-go.html' title='Please let me go'/><author><name>Sophia Koay</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03816131927835105302</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_v5xkDcnhPS8/SxiMyQkey3I/AAAAAAAABWc/jMBE118bj_4/S220/JSB_5168.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901934049018495242.post-7980208539367207899</id><published>2011-10-20T23:11:00.002+08:00</published><updated>2011-10-20T23:36:21.111+08:00</updated><title type='text'>This too, shall pass</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;As each semester ends, I am another step closer to completing my studies. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;However, with the ending of each semester, I can feel my youth fading away. As exaggerating as it sounds, I am starting to feel the pressure of being an adult.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ironic isn't it? One minute, i can't wait to be an adult and the next, I'm afraid.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I'm not sure what I'm afraid of. Is it the pressure from my parents? Is it the pressure from society's expectations?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I hate those days when I feel so much at a loss that I start to deny everything. I admit that I live in denial most of the time but I realized that if I let everyone help me make my decisions, I will never learn from anything.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So what if I believe in happy endings or in optimism? They bash you down with discouraging words like,'It will never work out' or 'I don't think you should do that' or 'You should be this.. or that'. Why must I succumb to your expectations when I haven't even exceeded my own?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Am I being an insensitive person? or am I just being selfish?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Who gets to define what's good for you and what's bad?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Why do I have so many questions?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This is why I'm having sleepless nights again.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Le sigh.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ltbdyyMKXm1qbziyuo1_400.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4901934049018495242-7980208539367207899?l=strippedperfection.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://strippedperfection.blogspot.com/feeds/7980208539367207899/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4901934049018495242&amp;postID=7980208539367207899' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4901934049018495242/posts/default/7980208539367207899'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4901934049018495242/posts/default/7980208539367207899'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://strippedperfection.blogspot.com/2011/10/this-too-shall-pass.html' title='This too, shall pass'/><author><name>elaine</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06458012727338915640</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901934049018495242.post-4602726350524170785</id><published>2011-10-18T07:19:00.001+08:00</published><updated>2011-10-26T01:18:16.930+08:00</updated><title type='text'>This is how the week was</title><content type='html'>Eating @ Per Se one of the best in new York, spirit carnival in Adelphi, chocoholic mess in the city and pumpkin painting in Adelphi.

I've switched from a blackberry to an iPhone in the beginning of the year. I must say that I succumbed to peer pressure because most of my close friends owned an IPhone and I was itching to get one too. Hence, I saved money and bought an IPhone. It took me almost a month to get it even though I had the finances already because almost all the Maxis centers were always out of stock each time I went there. Seriously, IPhones are not cheap yet they run out of stock every bloody day. When I almost given up hope, I tried my luck at the maxis shop in Pavillion and lo behold, the nice guy told me that they had one left! You can imagine my shock and relief when he told me that! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was ecstatic when I got my phone. it became my number one baby. My laptop was soon forgotten because I had my phone. It was the best investment ever! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then the drama begins.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went back to Brunei for holiday and my phone went nuts. The button stopped working. Mind you, this touch screen phone only has one main button and it was stuck! I was feeling so angry at it but after a few hours, it worked again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The button kept on not working so my friend suggested that I smacked my&lt;br /&gt;phone with my hand a few times because there could be a loose wiring in the button. So for a whole month, I smacked my phone everytime the button didn't work. It got so bad to the point where the button just completely stopped working -.- &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went to maxis and complained and thank goodness for my warranty, they replaced a new unit for me :) I was a happy girl for three weeks then shit happened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just got back from my Singapore trip and was still recovering from days of drinking and partying. I drove to uni in a very blur state of mind and when I was about to lock my car, MY PHONE DROPS FACE FRONT ON THE GRAVEL GROUND. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That feeling was worse than fighting with my boyfriend or my parents. it was worse than breaking up. it was worse than me having acne last time!!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was distraught and I picked my phone up with heartache. I flipped it over and there it was. An amazing cracked screen. It wasn't just a mere crack at the side. The whole screen had like a spider web on it. I almost died on the spot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Luckily for me, my parents were quite understanding and asked me to send it back to Maxis for repairs. of course, I had to pay a sum of money but Maxis is awesome and repaired (or replaced) my phone for me :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am now blogging this from my replaced phone! This is the drama I have with my iPhone. The End.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh wait wait!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;must show picture of self first! :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Caption: PHONE, Y U AND ME NO FATE?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-pzqYdBm7Z3c/TpanA_QZn6I/AAAAAAAAB8s/TXQ5jrkwgB4/s640/blogger-image-1767056133.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-pzqYdBm7Z3c/TpanA_QZn6I/AAAAAAAAB8s/TXQ5jrkwgB4/s640/blogger-image-1767056133.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4901934049018495242-1909431416581430564?l=strippedperfection.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://strippedperfection.blogspot.com/feeds/1909431416581430564/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4901934049018495242&amp;postID=1909431416581430564' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4901934049018495242/posts/default/1909431416581430564'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4901934049018495242/posts/default/1909431416581430564'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://strippedperfection.blogspot.com/2011/10/phone-drama.html' title='phone drama'/><author><name>elaine</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06458012727338915640</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-pzqYdBm7Z3c/TpanA_QZn6I/AAAAAAAAB8s/TXQ5jrkwgB4/s72-c/blogger-image-1767056133.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901934049018495242.post-1511727481976350460</id><published>2011-10-06T17:48:00.004+08:00</published><updated>2011-10-06T18:01:38.955+08:00</updated><title type='text'>I'll try to fix you</title><content type='html'>Hello, Hello.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I'm sure I've started out each post of mine apologizing for not blogging. I just realised after 7 years of maintaining a blog, we have our highs and lows.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I haven't been in the best shape lately and it's not because of the lack of exercise. I was under this medication that was supposed to kill the &lt;i&gt;H.Pylori &lt;/i&gt;in my stomach but turns out, the medication didn't suit me very well. It resulted in really horrible side effects; diarrhea, nausea, loss of appetite and fever. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Monash had their annual ball recently which I attended due to my peers. It was a fun filled night. I looked humongous in my heels and sort of slutty in my red dress but hey, who gives a shit. The food was okay, I suppose. I didn't really eat anything except the fudge cake which was pretty good.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium; "&gt;Besides Monash Annual Ball, I haven't been really doing much because it was mid sem break. I was basically lying in bed everyday recovering from the horrible side effects. I spent like RM300 in the freaking hospital because the doctor suspected I had dengue fever.

Therefore, I've been cutting back on my food. I don't drink soft drinks. I stay away from fast food like plague. I never used to eat breakfast when I was younger but now, I think I can't live without it. Breakfast is like the best meal of the day because I get to eat oatmeal or cereal.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I am currently in a cereal phase. Before this, it was oatmeal + nesvita every single day. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Hahaha. I am obsessed with this cereal:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://twiningco.com/igofresh/images/prodimages5000/8491212601.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;It's LIKE THE BEST THING EVERRRRR. :D The pecans are delicious! And the clusters just give that amazing crunch which makes you want to eat it more! Yes, i'm aware how loser-ish it sounds talking about cereal but it really is THAT awesome to me. I look forward to every morning so that I can eat this cereal. #loserwithoutadoubt&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I've missed out on the good things in life. I miss those days when I could eat Jollibee and sweet desserts everyday. Now, I feel like i've committed a crime for eating oily/fattening food or even sweet things. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Life is really never fair. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4901934049018495242-4993180418078638654?l=strippedperfection.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://strippedperfection.blogspot.com/feeds/4993180418078638654/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4901934049018495242&amp;postID=4993180418078638654' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4901934049018495242/posts/default/4993180418078638654'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4901934049018495242/posts/default/4993180418078638654'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://strippedperfection.blogspot.com/2011/08/self-esteem.html' title='Self esteem + this and that'/><author><name>elaine</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06458012727338915640</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901934049018495242.post-644297353276079586</id><published>2011-07-28T22:48:00.006+08:00</published><updated>2011-07-28T23:11:37.252+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Where them girls at?</title><content type='html'>I figured I should do a brief update. As always, this blog is super neglected when holidays are (or rather, were) here. The fun was short lived. How did I spend my days in Brunei? Eat, Drive, Lim teh, Eat, Sleep, Exercise and it repeats!&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Life feels awesome when your brain is shut down for a while but of course, I could feel my brain deteriorating away and was in fact quite glad when Year 2 began. I'm done with the first week of Year 2. I am loving Market Research Methods. My lecturer is very fascinated with gays. He keeps using them as examples for every theory. Hahaha.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Some pictures to keep you entertained (I hope).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;These pictures were taken from when I just finished exams, which was around end of June, till now I suppose.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Best friend came over for a two week visit during my examination period. -_-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ILG3D0KcLOY/TjF4Y_bZNQI/AAAAAAAAB50/eQp0EySTv2Y/s1600/IMG_1832.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"&gt;&lt;img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ILG3D0KcLOY/TjF4Y_bZNQI/AAAAAAAAB50/eQp0EySTv2Y/s400/IMG_1832.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5634416979555726594" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px; " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;OH!

I made Orange Cake, Cream Cheese Chocolate cake, Banana cake, Banana cupcakes and Honey Cheesecake.

I still like Tasek 100000000x better. I even played Badminton a couple of times because.. well, me and Sophia basically ran out of exercising ideas. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I do miss my friends back home but being back in KL is like a rejuvenating process where I detox my body and be a good girl and study (yeah....... who am I kidding).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;There has been a realisation made by Chien saying that I have become more delusional. I tend to phase out even though I'm with company. T_T This is the symptom of being alone for too long. I was cooped up in the house for a whole month due to exam period okay! :(&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Thanks for enduring my very scattered thoughts.

Well, there's always next summer.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I never really had extravagant birthday parties. I like the small family gatherings where we go to an expensive chinese restaurant to makan and then at the end of the night, my family will sing a birthday song for me and I cut the cake.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It's in the Chinese culture to have red eggs during your birthday. I have no idea why but.. yeah. Hahaha.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This year, I received basically all Hello Kitty themed presents from the bf and my two bffs. Sheesh.

I did want to reply one by one.. but after the 10th one, I got lazy. Hahaha. I APPRECIATE OKAY. It's just.. the laziness took over. :p&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What made this month a really awesome month was because not only did I get to spend time with the boy but I got to catch up with old friends. :) And I'm proud of myself for doing well last semester. I will work harder this semester to attain the same results. *crosses fingers hoping that I didn't jinx it*&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;At this point in life, I'm really happy with everything now.

But here I am now! Exams were.. meh. My results are coming out on the 11th, just right before my birthday. Dammit.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well, whatever.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So! Right after my exams ended, I went to Singapore with my university friends :D&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It was a really fun trip. We stayed at a backpacker's inn. I know many of you would be aghast at the fact that we had to share the room with 20 other people and not to mention the toilets....&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;However, it wasn't that bad. There were some cute Australians, korean families and Hongkies too. I didn't talk to any of them cause I was quite suspicious of them. Hahaha. Even though my belongings were inside a locker, I was still quite skeptical about it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Meh. Okay, So I got to meet my high school friends in Singapore too. Even went drinking and clubbing with them. Twas fun catching up with them especially being updated on who's with who and who's doing what now.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tOkMrf-XtUk/TgmPwQPRfVI/AAAAAAAAB48/TkvBodIaeEI/s1600/259998_192865107428897_100001162267295_466071_5468446_n.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tOkMrf-XtUk/TgmPwQPRfVI/AAAAAAAAB48/TkvBodIaeEI/s400/259998_192865107428897_100001162267295_466071_5468446_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623183668904295762" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 299px; " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Hsiang, Elena, Sharron, Sebas and Jian Ming :)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Then right after clubbing, I only had like 3-4 hours of sleep and had to go Universal Studios the next day.

Transformers 3 is finally out! That is like the best piece of news I have heard since forever! I was always under the impression that robots are lame but Transformers just blew my mind away. E&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This time, the war between Autobots and Decepticons is going to occur in our world! That is one battle I would love to watch from afar and definitely would not like to be part of.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no doubt that most people would go for peace and justice therefore supporting the Autobots. I fall under that category of people and would like very much so to watch all the Decepticons die! Justice will prevail!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If I could be an Autobot, I would like to be Bumblebee!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_8hS4919HU2o/SwnsrP_Ee1I/AAAAAAAAACg/iFKrShNufXU/s1600/bumble_bee.png" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not this bumblebee but this,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.starstore.com/acatalog/tf-bumblebee-city.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isnt he just adorable?! His colours not only strike out among the rest but he is one character that you will grow to love!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Having a name like Bumblebee will give people the impression that you are not a capable robot, and yes its a pretty gay name but hey, once your defences are down because you think I'm not a threat, I will become your worst nightmare.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will whoop the Decepticons' ass so hard that they will go back in time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, there will be some oomph and humph and huff a puff while I'm fighting. Being this big sized and fighting to protect the citizens of the earth aint a easy job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How else would I protect the world from the Decepticons?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, there is the idea of planting molecular atomic bombs inside them  and then watch them explode into tiny millions pieces.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then again, I could just fight with my awesome skills and broken radio to save the earth.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4901934049018495242-808441203672832814?l=strippedperfection.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://strippedperfection.blogspot.com/feeds/808441203672832814/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4901934049018495242&amp;postID=808441203672832814' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4901934049018495242/posts/default/808441203672832814'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4901934049018495242/posts/default/808441203672832814'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://strippedperfection.blogspot.com/2011/06/transformers-3-dark-of-moon.html' title='Our world, their war'/><author><name>elaine</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06458012727338915640</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-yOL2oQ0R7lc/TddN-C6ObQI/AAAAAAAAAZA/Lj_OMMRHl2Q/s72-c/transformers1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901934049018495242.post-1560266912453958883</id><published>2011-05-18T22:02:00.002+08:00</published><updated>2011-05-18T22:12:08.671+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Baby, I don't care</title><content type='html'>So like, KL just became a more dangerous place to live in. &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;As if the crime rates are not high enough, accidents are not prone enough, KL has to have two idiotic men riding their motorcycles around and splashing acid on people. Why lahhhhh. :(&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well, I'm trying not to feel scared about the scary world out there but there are days where I feel so damn paranoid that the dude walking behind me will mug me or rape me or........ I dunno. My paranoia is like past the sanity border already. Haih.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I'm just going to forget about it.

It's all done and waiting to see how I did is sort of scary but whatever. I have exams coming soon! The first paper being Biz Stats on 7th June. My last paper is on 20th June then I'm heading over to Singapore with a few of my classmates. :D YAY!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I can't wait to see Sophia again. She's arriving in KL during my exam period but it's okay because soon, we'll all be back in Brunei together again!

The bug two zero. I have to say, I feel closer to being an adult but this year I learnt that I was happy. :) i am happy where I am. I learnt the importance of being nice to people and caring and that taking a small effort to look out for someone goes a long way. Yesterday, my friends took the effort and time, to brave the bad weather and terrible traffic to come celebrate my 20th at a Malaysian Restaurant. I was so very happy because the food was delicious. Also, the company was great. :) Some I didn't even consider that close made such an effort, I was so surprised, and I was reassured that some people don't actually give a rats ass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I miss my bestfriend, boyfriend and family very very much, but this year I didn't feel so lonely and I didn't feel like I was second best. HAHA! I love them.&lt;br /&gt;I have to thank the people who wished me for my birthday.

It’s when you have more playful moments than serious moments. It’s when you can joke around, let each other have piggy backs, have unexpected hugs and random kisses. It’s when you two give each other that specific stare and just smile. It’s when you’ll rather stay in to watch movies, eat junk food and cuddle, than go out all the time. It’s when you’ll stay up all night just to settle your arguments and problems.

Basically, we went there just to visit Jonker Street and eat.. eat.. eat.. and some more eating. I think I gained like 100000000kg when I was there. *exaggerated* T_T&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I can't wait to go there again with my bestie, Sophia because well, we're both very lame and like to visit tourist spots regardless it's those creepy ancient graves or museums that basically has nothing in it. It's still a tourist spot and uhm.. we may be Malaysians but we're technically counted as tourists right? Heh heh.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;The trip took almost 2 hours by car.

It was a Surprise party and once again w me ruining surprises!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had to 1. SAY NO to Dennise when she invited me for her party (which I felt bad for by the way) 2. Take a train an hour early and stand @ the restaurant to make sure when she got there we had a table. 3. Guide Stacy to get there (can you imagine? ME! A tourist guiding a New Yorker in how to get around) Epic LOL moment; she got lost 3 times.&lt;br /&gt;So while i was guiding her around, I was standing outside and Dennise &amp;amp; Luisa walk up to me. She has a&amp;nbsp;surprised&amp;nbsp;look. What the hell is Sophia doing here??&lt;br /&gt;I stared at her.. Said owh fuck. (Luisa in the&amp;nbsp;background&amp;nbsp;groaning at my stupidiy) SURPRISE DENNISE!

Mind you, we (Andrew, wendy and i) went there at 7am and there were no tickets left. Apparently, some people went there and started queuing for the tickets at 3/4am. That is some intense determination. hahaha.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Although we didn't manage to ride the balloons, we walked around visiting the different activities being offered.

It was other hitch hike and hope I don't get raped OR walk back... *mumbling and grumbling* I WALKED ALL THE WAY BACK! Well, I better have had lost weight!

Haha. I guess it's better late than never right? :p&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So, the eve of CNY, my dearest mother cooked a feast for the family. We had takeout from Excapade too. It was one filling meal. CNY is bad for those who is on a diet e.g. me. T_T But since it was CNY, I gave myself a break and ate till my heart's (or rather, my stomach) content.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Let's begin with the chronological order of the happenings in February! :D&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;2nd February:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Lao yee sang! :D Apparently, the higher you toss it, the more ..er.. luck? you get?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Bha1U5v8wIo/TXcesbr0S5I/AAAAAAAAB2o/c9_ixMMwTwk/s400/IMG_0062.JPG" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581964011843636114" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;The man of the house!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-c0recXbL4Js/TXcesvqf47I/AAAAAAAAB2w/IGwROLR3ESk/s400/IMG_0046.JPG" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581964017206813618" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Visited the temple that night.

That is the end of all the pictures I took while I was still in Brunei. -_- Sometimes, I dunno why I bring around a camera when I don't have a habit of taking it out and take pictures. I spent the rest of my time mostly going out to eat, bringing my brother around and er.. stoning? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;I'm now in my second semester, still in my first year of university. I'm enjoying all my subjects so far. Surprisingly, even Business Statistics. It is sort of like IB Maths at Higher Level so I am familiar with most of the terms. Film Studies has got to be the best class cause all we do is watch movies during lecture hours. Then we spend the tutorial analysing the movie. A lot of students from other faculties took up this unit purely for the reason that it's quite easy to pass, I suppose. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;My timetable for this semester is really good. I have classes on Monday from 9am till 6pm then on tuesdays, from 10am till 4pm and on Thursdays, 9am to 12pm! I only go to uni three times a week! :D &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Although all the assignments are due at the same time, I shall make use of my time and finish all my assignments before the due date because I actually have a lot of time to do it. Hahaha.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Bah, the end.

The first one we went to, we applied Maybelline's new mascara, Superfilm on false lashes. After that, the lashes were put into a test tube and filled with water. Shake the tube and voila! The mascara is removed from the lash! Awesome right? &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Then at the second station, we had a make over. Well, all we did was just apply the new mascara on our lashes. -_- wasn't much of a make over.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;At the third station, we did this application on Facebook and 'supersized' our lashes. Lastly, we dressed up with a few props and took a picture! At each station, they will give out one bead if you completed the task. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ug1IpljxPTY/TT6sT-NSm-I/AAAAAAAABz8/Cygy3aWmUsg/s400/IMG_0122.JPG" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566075648592747490" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Ug1IpljxPTY/TT6sTt3WrLI/AAAAAAAABz0/LAraTcujAxA/s400/IMG_0126.JPG" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566075644205771954" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;The tasks were fun and rather entertaining.

I'm finishing summer school on the 20th. :D And then I'm moving house! I'm no longer going to stay in this crappy place where you are very prone to being harmed and harassed by other people!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well, I've been missing classes lately due to my deteriorating health condition. I was diagnosed with a condition that requires me visiting the hospital thrice a week, and to top it off, I also have cough, flu and fever. Who knew I would start off my year with such bad health!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ironically, I made a &lt;b&gt;resolution&lt;/b&gt; not to &lt;i&gt;damage my liver&lt;/i&gt; anymore and then, TADA, here comes all the bad virus attacking me and my body failing on me. Great. This is just great.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I'm still in the process of healing. Maybe once I'm healed, I'll tell you guys what the condition is. I am in denial about my condition. &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;It's not fatal.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; It's just &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;very psychologically damaging&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt; and requires&lt;b&gt; time + patience&lt;/b&gt; for it to heal. At one point, I was on so many different types of medications that I had to write down what time to eat what pill. The turf!! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Meh. Besides my bad health, everything else is going in the right way. I can't wait to start Semester 1 soon! :) I will be doing: &lt;b&gt;Media Studies, Contemporary Film Studies, Business Statistics&lt;/b&gt; and&lt;b&gt; Consumer Behaviour&lt;/b&gt;. Yes, I've chosen to major in&lt;b&gt; Marketing&lt;/b&gt;. I wanted to major in Management but..... yeah, let's just say it's not my cup of tea. It's not difficult. It's just so.. &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;dry&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I've got another four years left! I think if I keep doing summer school, I can graduate earlier. Hmm. Now this is a good option :D But then again, it's too early to make those kind of decisions now! Cause I will definitely get homesick and yada yada yada.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In exactly two weeks time, I will be back in Brunei! :D I will be on the plane often because:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;26th Jan- Flying back to Brunei&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;6th Feb- Coming back to KL (To sit for exams -_-)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;10th Feb- Flying back to Brunei again&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;26th Feb- Coming back to KL for three months&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Hahahaha. It sucks that we have exams during CNY but I'm not going to let it affect me cause I'm preparing beforehand so that when I'm in Brunei, I can slack a bit because I would have finished most of my revision already :D YAY ME. HAHAHAHA.

He is silly and he is always there for me even when he can't do anything for me. :D&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_v5xkDcnhPS8/TSedaUxJmLI/AAAAAAAABn4/Uqh7DmPqhmE/s1600/IMG_0429.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_v5xkDcnhPS8/TSedaUxJmLI/AAAAAAAABn4/Uqh7DmPqhmE/s320/IMG_0429.JPG" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: xx-small;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;11 May 2013&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;Man #1 &lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Koay Swee Tian&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;He loves me the most in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD!

Omg. Where did the time go. :(&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So I spent my New Year's s Eve with my uni classmates. It was the first new year's eve that I spent away from home and from my comfort zone but I had a great time with my new friends :).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We had dinner then shisha then being 'sakai' people, we joined the crowd outside this pub and counted down together. Hahaha.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It was pretty funny. Everyone suddenly shouted,'HAPPY NEW YEAR' and started dancing for no apparent reason. I looked at my watch and it was only 11.50pm. I guess I'm ten minutes behind the world???!? HAHAHAHA. Oh well.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The crowd here in KL is ridiculous. T_T. They are very semangat. They all bought foam sprays and party sprays and kept spraying at random people. I spent most of the time avoiding it because the foam stinks. In the end, there was this random dude who stood beside us and blasted this honk. Out of nowhere, people with foam sprays came attacking us and sprayed us all over. Yup, we were all covered in foam.

Almost every night, I would be awake feeling super tired but unable to fall asleep. I had a bad case of homesickness and it lead to me having insomnia. No, I didn't cry myself to sleep. I just wasn't used to the life here. But friends from Brunei came over to KL for visits and when they were around (even if they were my friends or my sister's), I was really happy to see familiar faces from the town that I grew up in.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs615.snc4/59547_10150260661910462_538285461_14640029_2214979_n.jpg" width="400" height="300" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/hs573.ash2/149515_10150094869720681_625825680_7665456_6443209_n.jpg" width="400" height="320" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs1133.snc4/149504_455375812196_510307196_6273571_546195_n.jpg" width="400" height="320" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs937.snc4/75015_457845412196_510307196_6324179_2098919_n.jpg"  width="400" height="290" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;-----&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I went clubbing!

I would just like to say thanks for all the bittersweet memories. There were good times and there were bad. The bad times made such an impact on me that I really learned a few lessons from it. :) Thanks to these experiences, I am now wiser and learning how to make better decisions. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;To the friends I've not spoken to or rather have not been catching up with, know that I still think you sometimes and I am glad that each and everyone of you has made a little contribution in my life. Every person I have met this year, I hope we won't be strangers in the upcoming year.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;To the people I've gotten close to, thank you for always being there for me when I wasn't sure where I was going. Thank you for making me laugh even when all I really want to do is cry. Thank you for those times you accompanied me when I felt lonely. Thank you for being my crying shoulder. Simply, thank you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To my best friend Sophia, I miss you and let's not forget our deal for 2011.

:)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I'm back in KL doing summer school in order to catch up with the July Intake students. Hehe.&lt;div&gt;The first night that I was back, I slept at my sister's boyfriend's place. It is pretty comfortable living there. Then on sunday night, we came back to Sunway to our own place.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I had the worst sleep of my life. I was in and out of sleep the WHOLE night and to make matters worse, I had to wake up at 7.30am the next day. At one point of the night, I woke up feeling with a heartache. :( I think I am secretly depressed due to the news I received that day. Sighs. Oh well. No use crying over spilled milk. All I have to do is sacrifice a bit of my holiday time now. Ahh, screw it lah. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Since I've been back, I've been splurging money. What a bad attitude T_T. Time to budget again. Some more, it's the holiday season! Need to buy gifts for the couple and their little pup. Hehe. I didn't realise how much I missed them till I came back here in KL. Okay, so the 21days in Brunei was spent going out everyday and doing various activities. I'm proud to say that I did go hiking.. at least 3 times. :D The next time I am going back, I will hike more and eat less. I managed to put on the weight I lost here in KL during my visit back home. :( SAD MAX OKAY! So here I go again.. dieting. Erghhhh. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;算了吧，看的开就好。&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4901934049018495242-5065755372251916024?l=strippedperfection.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://strippedperfection.blogspot.com/feeds/5065755372251916024/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4901934049018495242&amp;postID=5065755372251916024' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4901934049018495242/posts/default/5065755372251916024'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4901934049018495242/posts/default/5065755372251916024'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://strippedperfection.blogspot.com/2010/12/spilled-milk.html' title='Spilled milk'/><author><name>elaine</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06458012727338915640</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Ug1IpljxPTY/TQcUWbQJHbI/AAAAAAAABxY/upEo4YS8qvk/s72-c/145153.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901934049018495242.post-5783256104433698642</id><published>2010-12-08T08:56:00.004+08:00</published><updated>2010-12-08T09:25:03.231+08:00</updated><title type='text'>With only two days left</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;No matter where I am, I always manage to catch up with Wenyie. :) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Ug1IpljxPTY/TP7X-HYcOjI/AAAAAAAABwY/1PgjrBOVeNo/s1600/150800_472079272982_732832982_5951346_188109_n.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 234px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Ug1IpljxPTY/TP7X-HYcOjI/AAAAAAAABwY/1PgjrBOVeNo/s400/150800_472079272982_732832982_5951346_188109_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548109253100452402" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center; "&gt;On Saturday, after Kenview's last match, we went to yamcha.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center; "&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ug1IpljxPTY/TP7ZzM9GxqI/AAAAAAAABwo/LuDSR-Dqkw8/s1600/IMG_0034.JPG"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ug1IpljxPTY/TP7ZyjnkxcI/AAAAAAAABwg/J7V_T7-R9s0/s1600/IMG_0024.JPG"&gt;&lt;img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ug1IpljxPTY/TP7ZyjnkxcI/AAAAAAAABwg/J7V_T7-R9s0/s400/IMG_0024.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548111253544945090" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px; " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center; "&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center; "&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ug1IpljxPTY/TP7dxC_-lTI/AAAAAAAABxQ/-uASXQ7-DPU/s1600/IMG_0026.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ug1IpljxPTY/TP7dxC_-lTI/AAAAAAAABxQ/-uASXQ7-DPU/s400/IMG_0026.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548115625655571762" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center; "&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center; "&gt;On Sunday, I went to Tungku Beach with my baby girl.

I was so happy when I landed here. All those familiar faces made my heart feel so much warmer and I've never been in such a happier mood. It's only in Brunei you can recognise most of the license plate numbers and know who owns that car or where that person lives. I love being back here.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Despite the fact that I've been out every night, I appreciate the time with my family :)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Most of my close friends are not around anymore however, I have two amazing people to hang out with. I was catching up with my sister the other day and she told me that my life is pretty repetitive. When I was in KL, most of my time was spent with Andrew and Wendy. Now that I'm back in Brunei, I spent most of my time with WH and Chien +. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;I realized something very important since being back here. I've changed in ways that I've become more independent. My thinking has also changed in a way that it is more matured.

My sleeping habits have been pretty messed up lately. I fell asleep at 8.30pm and woke up at 12am, thus I am super awake right now. -_-&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So how have things been for me lately? I would have to say it's been pretty good. One of my best girlfriends came over for a nine day trip. I've been out with her the whole time accompanying her while she's shopping, eating or out with other friends. I didn't realize how much I would miss her company till she left a few days ago. My lifestyle is back to normal where it's very quiet only having Wendy and Andrew + Louie as company. I do have my uni classmates too. Hehe.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I guess it's not bad right? As you are growing up, you have to learn how to stand on your own two feet. I'm still learning. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When I was younger, I was so afraid of growing up. I was afraid of reality. I was scared that I couldn't adapt to the rest of the world and become a messed up person. But I think I did okay. Experienced things that a normal teen would and now, I'm ready to stop playing around so much.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I'll be turning 20 next year yet I feel like I am going to turn 24/25.

Whether it's drinking or just going out with each other, she was always there for me. I can always pick up my phone and call her and she'll be there. I love this girl to death.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;We've been told numerous of times that we look alike but our personalities differ from each other so much. The things that we have in common is quite little but somehow, we can manage to connect with each other. :) She's one of the most unexpected person I would imagine myself being such close friends with. Somehow, even though we see each other everyday we never run out of things to talk about. The silence between us is never awkward and that just proves how close we are. :) I cherish and treasure this girl a lot.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;She may have been in a grade lower than me but this never stopped us from getting closer to each other. Even when I finished high school and was in ISB, we somehow managed to keep in contact with each other and our friendship kept growing stronger. When I first came to KL, she came with me and she played a huge part by being there for me when I was home sick here. Thank you for always being there for me when I needed you, for giving me advices when you know I'm heading towards a dead end, for listening to me rant about my paranoia and you would just tolerate it, for always accompanying me when I'm lonely, for being a great friend, for making my alcohol tolerance higher (it's true!), for teaching me how to play rummy + mahjong and loads more! :) &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"&gt;HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY, LOVE!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Ug1IpljxPTY/TMkphoHS9pI/AAAAAAAABtI/_f6QfluMEPI/s1600/17942_402340275461_538285461_10409495_5970964_n.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer;

I can't wait to drive again and go lim teh sessions with my friends but I know it would be different this time because most of my close friends aren't around anymore :( &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;I've got exams on the 15th and 16th of November.

  When ordering a cheesesteak, the idea is to let the cashier know&lt;br /&gt;a.)  that you would like a cheesesteak&lt;br /&gt;b.) what type of cheese you want&lt;br /&gt;c.) whether or not you want fried onions&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And you have to be as  concise as possible while doing so.&lt;br /&gt;Locals have become so adept at this practice that they basically  have it down to three words: saying “one wiz with” to the person behind  the counter means that you would like one cheesesteak [denoted by the  “one”] with Cheeze Wiz as your choice of cheese [denoted by the “wiz”]  and with fried onions [denoted by the “with”].&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Similarly, saying “one provolone without” would secure you a single  cheesesteak [one] made with provolone cheese [provolone] and without  fried onions [without].&lt;br /&gt;Ok. Got it? Now go ahead and test out your ordering prowess for real.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;I'm so excited to go!

I've been out the past few days with my sister and Andrew.

I had my eyes and ears closed during all the predictable scary moments. I still think 'Shutter' is the scariest movie I've ever watched. This movie was very &lt;i&gt;meh.&lt;/i&gt; Rainie Yang was in it and Shawn Yue too but like.. the story line was makes you go 'wtf' at the end. I gotta admit, I am sucker for horror/thriller movies but I always get scared senseless. T__T Fail~&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;'Sammy's Adventures' was cute! It's about a turtle and his life.. yeah, it's an animation. Half of the cinema was filled with little kids and then there is those young adults (like us) who are also watching it. Lol.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I've had a very enjoyable weekend :) I gotta admit, I don't miss home so much anymore. I love my company here which pretty much consists of my sister, her boyfriend and louie.
