When you lose someone, they lose a person who loves them. But you ONLY lose a person who doesn't love you anymore...

Smitten by him!

I've been browsing a lot around YouTube lately and discovered an undiscovered talent. I finally found the 'Romeo' that can take me to somewhere we can be alone(in my room playing his video on youtube that is!)..hehehe! I've been watching his videos countless times a day (everyday!) and my colleagues are starting to think that i'm mad. Well, maybe madly in love with him? =p

Michael Easterday did a great job on Taylor Swift's Love Story in man's version(i love to imagine that he's singing the song to me *pinch herself again!*). He's got a superb voice, sings and performs really well. Super love him!! Check him out...

Love Story



He did many cover songs by other artists as well. These are some of my favorites!


When You Say Nothing At All


Just Got Started Loving You


The Dance


You Found Me


And this is his latest addition to his collection..

Last Call



He's also got a natural talent of composing and writing his own songs. These songs are written and sung originally by him....


Why Didn't I Kiss Her


Think About That



I would love to see him perform live in one of his gigs in Arizona. Maybe i'd stop by after visiting Janice in Las Vegas, Nevada? Gosh, desert after desert!! I'll definitely buy his album when he have one! Kudos to you Mike Easterday!!

Haven't had enough of him? Search for measter17 to listen to more of his collections on YouTube.

Awesome!!

If you love beautiful music, check out the new arrangement by Jon Schmidt below. You won't regret!!



Love Story by Taylor Swift meets Viva La Vida by Coldplay




p/s: Sarah has great taste!!


I browsed through YouTube and found a video of Taylor Swift performing Love Story live and i love the performance!!! Check it out yourself to find out why.....




This has been my favourite song since last year and i've listened to it COUNTLESS times since then but i'm not even close to getting bored of it because i simply love this part of the song...

Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring

And said, marry me Juliet
You'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story baby just say yes



I love fairytales because it always ends with a happy ending. Wish life is like that too! *pinch herself to get back to reality*

This made my day..

I love making people look pretty/good. That's why i love my job. The satisfaction of seeing your clients happy is darn good. But when your work is appreciated, it's priceless....=)

Usually clients that are happy with our service will give us a heavy tip (trust me, it's really alot of money!!). But this is the first of my 4 working years that i'm recieving something different...



I did a haircut for the manager of BVLGARI today and this is a token of appreciation from her and it made my day!!

Just for Laughs

Little Red Ridinghood is walking in the woods and she sees a big, bad wolf behind a tree, She says:

'I see you wolf.'

Later she sees him behind some plants and repeats:

'I see you wolf.'

Later still, she find him behind a house and again repeats:

'I see you wolf.'

Finally the wolf replies:

'Good heavens! A wolf can't take a crap in peace in this woods anymore!'



----------------------------------------------------------------------------


There were three friends whoose names were Stupid, Nobody and No One. Stupid went to the police one day:
Help, help! Nobody fell in the well and No One is helping him!

The policemen answered:
Come on! Are you stupid?
Yes! Nice to meet you!

Happy or Not?

For the past few days, i have been doing things myself. I guess i was trying to get use to the life of being alone and lonely, just in case i end up being a spinster in my latter life. haha!! Yea, i know you guys must be thinking wtf! and why i am having this thought at such a 'young' age.


Well, for me, i wouldn't think of myself as 'young' anymore. As what Britney would say, i'm not a girl, not yet a woman. But i guess i can safely say that i'm an adult now. You know, at my age, my parents are already married and had concieved me already. Your head its probably screaming to yourself saying this to me, 'This is the 21st century dude!! People DON'T get married at such young age anymore!!'. I guess the problem with me its that i've been stressing myself too much lately thinking if i will ever find myself a life companion.


I've been trying to keep myself as busy as a bee to keep my mind off things. Some people genuinely enjoy their job and they like to spend their time working or they're just purely a workaholic. I guess i'm neither both. I would say that i enjoy my job, but i don't like to spend my time at work because i'm usually very free at work doing my own things like surfing the net, going for shopping, having lunch/tea with friends and etc. You don't call that working right? But sometimes, there's days that i'm unusually really busy at work which i really much prefer it to be that way. I'm earning by commission base, so busy = more money.


Nowadays, regardless if i'm busy at work or not, i really hate it when i'm off work, it's the end of the day and it's time to go home. Everyday after work, i'll think of what i am gonna do later and knowing that i have trouble sleeping early every night really ticked me off. You see, I'm a thinker. I have too many things in my mind all the time when i'm off work, alone or during my free time. And that ticked me off too! I'd really like it if i can be at the salon 24/7 with lots of work and clients to service, so that i will not have the time to think at all. But in reality, we all know that, that is too much for a normal human being to endure. So, we'll just erase that part off..


So, i have been doing all sorts of things to keep myself really busy lately. On Monday, i had no choice but to work full day from 10am-9pm because i had a 10am appointment (WTF! I hate waking up early in the morning!!) By the end of the day, i was so mentally tired because i didn't have enough sleep the night before (what's new!). I left work about 8pm because there's no more clients and thought that i will hit the gym after.


I went home, packed my gym bag and head to Pyramid. But when i reach the mall, i was procrastinating a little because i was feeling a little lazy. So, before i hit the gym, i was walking around the mall, directionless and ended in the MPH bookstore. I walked in the bookstore and automatically, i was heading to the self help book section and that felt a little weird. I was actually picking up books that are titled 'How to make yourself happy?', 'Wake up happy every morning', 'It's your choice to be happy'! WTF right? I started thinking to myself, 'WTF is wrong with you!! This is ridiculous!! Do you actually need to read a book to find ways to make yourself happy??'. Seriously, i have not been genuinely happy for quite awhile until i went for a holiday and when the holiday is over, everything is back to reality. All these while, i have been understating the statement of REALITY BITES! And now i know, they actually do!!


Just as i realize that nothing is going to change the reality even if i read those books, i decided to drop everything and go straight to the gym. I was really pushing my limits doing cardio until i could feel my muscle pain/sore but still pushing myself to do further. The chances of hurting myself is really high, i know, but i just couldn't stop it because at that time, i was concentrating too much on the pain, rather than what's up in my head. After gym, it was still early about 11.30pm. I know i wouldn't be able to sleep early if i were to go home, ignoring the pain on my arms, i decided to go to the driving range. After hitting a 100 balls, i went home flat.

I'm gonna try to sleep early today. G' night peeps!

Accident prone

Yesterday i met up with Chee Sun. We were deciding where we should go when Jeremy called to invite us to Phuture. Both of us weren't up for clubbing scene, so we decided to have a quiet evening.

The last time i saw Chee Sun was at his dad's funeral service and it has been quite awhile since we last catch up. We went to Soho KL because he has never been there before and i've only been there once to have dinner. Ended up at Michelangelo's M Bar and had a bottle of wine and a pint of guinness.

Talking our lives away and when they were closing, i went to visit the washroom for the last time. After using the toilet and wanted to make my exit, i tried to pull the door open and realized that it was stucked! I was getting a little panic and nervous that the door won't open, so i tried pulling it again and again with full force. When i finally managed to pull the door open, the door hit the left side of my face and cut my lips!!

I was in a little daze after all that happened and i sat back down at the toilet bowl waiting for the pain to ease off. That's when i realize my lips were bleeding as i can see my blood dripping down the floor. Chee Sun probably thought that i was drunk or vomitting in the cubicle because i could hear him shouting frantically for me from the outside (i was inside for quite awhile). Not wanting to shock him with the amount of blood on my lips, i quickly wipe out, went out and wash it off.

He totally had no clue to what had happened. We left and he dropped me home. I was really tired working the whole day, i showered and went straight to sleep after that.

When i woke up this morning, still lying on the bed lazing, i felt that my lip is a little swollen and was so dehydrated from the night before. I wet my lips and freaked out!! I felt a rough edge on my teeth with my tougue and jump out from my bed. Wanting to see how bad is the damage done, i quickly ran to the mirror. I didn't know i chipped my tooth as well from the door pulling incident!

For all these years, i always have an issue about my teeth. I don't have a nice and straight set of teeth and to top that up, i have dracula tooth. Both sides are longer and sharper and i really hate it!! When I was looking at the mirror at my chipped tooth, i smiled. Guess what!?!?!!?? I like it better now!! Haha!! It chipped off nicely (*phew* lucky for me..) and one of my dracula tooth is slightly shorter and its flat edged now!!

Now i have to get used to my new tooth.....heheheheheheh...........

Body Art

I got myself a new tattoo last January. It's something that i had in my mind for a couple of years ago but wasn't allowed to do it then.


The idea of getting an ambigram tattoo came across me after reading Angels & Demons by Dan Brown (same author as The Da Vinci Code). I was really amazed by the ambigrams shown in the novel and i was actually studying how it managed to form into such manner. I find it really interesting simply because the words read the same upside down. I even tried creating an ambigram with some random words! It wasn't as easy as it seemed and mine came out a disaster, can barely read it..lolz..


I decided to go with the word Angels & Demons, well, not because i like the novel..but because I'm a Gemini. Gemini is known to have split/double personality, so, what better word other than Angels & Demons to describe a Gemini?


I was so sure of what i wanted to get, but didn't know where to have it strategically on my body. I thought that it will really look nice on the back of the neck, but i already had one there. My tattooist suggested that we could do it just right below of my old tattoo and we'll just have to alter the design a little to make 2 tattoos combined into one..




My tattoist, Kong Meng and Me.


I had my first tattoo when i was 19 done by him. Ever since then, i have been going back to him for more..=p I wouldn't say it's an addiction. I never have the feeling of wanting to get a tattoo done and just pick something random unless something caught my eyes and i really like it.




Stencilled on my skin and the pain will begin...
Abit nervous because i forgot how it felt like...it has been 4 years since i last felt the needles peircing through my skin...

The pain was probably 10% percent of what my heart feels..(I was heartbroken at that time, so nothing can be more painful than that!)


Done!!




It only took 1/2 hour to get this done. I super dig my new tattoo!! Love it!!



Janice was with me when i was getting the tattoo, she saw it and loved it as well. So, she decided to the same (besties ma!). Eli actually wanted to do it too, but she knows that Jeremy won't like the idea. So, she was just there watching us...although very tempted..heheeh!! She said it is unfair that both us of are getting the same one without her (she felt left out). But obviously she knows that it didn't matter if she have it or not, because that's not gonna be a barrier in our friendship..


My Babes..

*Eli*Janice*Me*

Janice had to call her boyfriend from Malaysia all the way to Vegas just to inform him that she's getting a new tattoo. But hey, i didn't influence her alright!! She really liked it and that's why she wants to do it!! Luckily her boyfriend didn't have much opinion about it...(bet he hates me!)


Actually our tattoo its slightly different because i've altered mine. Below is Janice's Angels & Demons.




Only the outline done. See, it reads the same after rotating 180 degrees..



Same same but different =p


After getting our tattoo done, Janice wanted to have Thai food for dinner. Both of us have fresh wounds, so we can't have seafood at all. Too bad for Janice because her favourite was seafood. We were so careful about the food selection..






The ambigram is created by the brilliant John Langdon. .


-------------------------------------------------------------------------


And now, I'm thinking of a new tattoo to add into my collection of body art. Still a little confuse on which to do, so i don't mind some opinions or suggestions...


I had this idea of having an anklet tattoo for a few years already, but due to some circumstances, i wasn't allowed to have more than i already had, but now i can have as much as i want! So here are some images that i googled online that i like..


I like this! But i don't think it'll be a good idea for me to have the cross as a charm because i'm not a Christian eventhough i'm a free thinker...


So i thought i'd opt for my zodiac sign as the charm instead....


Seriously, this doesn't look like a Gemini's sign to me. Can somebody help clarify?? The design of the chain doesn't seem appealing and feminine enough for me. I prefer the one's that are shown below, but also have a hard time deciding on which...(look at designs of the chain)




This image of Gemini is so damn cute right? Angel and Devil. Matches my latest tattoo too, Angels and Demons. It'll be cute to have it as a charm..

Another Gemini sign...


I also have a thing for the Fleur De Lis. Translated from French as 'lily flower'. It is also the emblem of the beautiful city of Florence, Italy..which i hope to visit one day.



So many choices!!! How???!!!




I dig this!! If it's possible to achieve an effect like this, i'll do this!!


Gemini sign or Fluer De Lis as the charm?!?!

(or should i get 2 charms so i don't have to choose neither one?)



All of my tattoos are no bigger than the size of a cigarrette box. According to my tattoist, he thinks that anything bigger than that doesn't suit my petite body frame. As i was browsing around for tattoo designs, i came across this.....


This is totally cute and i absolutely like this!! And now it will be just a matter of time until i'm ready to go so extreme...=) My gosh!! The stars will definitely stretch like mad during pregnancy..haha!!

I'm in love...

Most people doesn't believe in love at first sight, but i'm not one of them. I've encountered it a few times before, regardless it's people or material wise. It's just a feeling of how much you need to have it when you see it. You'll be in a vulnerable state by the temptations of how good it looks, feels, character, personality, and etc...

Actually i've been in love with it for quite sometime ago, but the fact that i just got a new one, i can't just leave the old one for the one that i just fell in love with. You can't blame a sentimental person for it right?!?

But now, i guess it's about time for me to ditch the old one after it had crashed and failed on me! Finally, let me introduce you my new baby!!

My very own Toshiba Protege!!





Nice hor!!!

Perfect color to match my iPhone!!

It looks so much more seductive in the dark!! Totally absolutely in love with it!!

Hot and Sexy!!! *beams*

Initially, i wanted to get the one in pink, but the price was ridiculously expensive by MYR700 with specs that are slightly better. So, i thought i'll just get the white one instead since it's also one of my favourite color...

I actually bought it 1 day before i went Bangkok. Can you imagine parting with your new found love only after a day and not see and feel them for the next couple of days??!?! I missed it so much while i was having my holiday but luckily i have other things to distract me over there..=p

One of the best purchase of the year that i'll never regret. Have to thank Ian for convincing me for hours until i buy it...haha!

I'm so in love (i have so much love to offer but i do not have MY Romeo yet so i'm giving it all to my baby first!) with my new baby and i can blog more productively because now i do not have an excuse not to blog more frequent!!

Damn, i've been spending too much last month!! iPhone, notebook and Bangkok!! Have to work hard already...=(

Chinese New Year 2009

I was feeling damn sick the whole day because all my colleagues are sick. All of us got infected by 2 inconsiderate colleagues who was so freaking sick for the whole week and refused to take MC and come to work instead to spread viruses and bacterias!
I was down with fever, cough, cold, migraine and joint pains. I only decided to leave work after working half day because i was having conjunctivitis and i know that it's infectious (apparently i got that from Nick according to Curt). My left eye ball felt so fiery as if it was gonna burst! Was bed ridden for a couple of hours and feeling much better now (thanks for your concern, haha!).
And since i'm free and have nothing else better to do, i think it's about time to write up my late posts. I have a dozen of them in my drafts! OMG!! Chill la..more to come ok?
-------------------------------------------------------------
Chinese New Year was 2 months back, so i realised that this is a super late post. I can barely remember what i did then..craps!! Here are some pictures and videos that reminds me of what i did..


1 day before Chinese New Year, i bought Yee Sang to 'lou sang' with my colleagues. After all these years of 'lou sang', i have no idea why are we doing it for (yeah! i know!! so much for being a Chinese!!). So i asked my colleagues why is it a custom to 'lou sang', and apparently you need to wish for what you want and you have to say it out loud while 'lou sanging' to have your wishes granted.

So, as i was saying my wishes out loud, all of my colleagues started laughing at me. Partly it's because of my oh-soooooo-damn-fluent Cantonese and also at my wishes. Just to kill your curiosity of wanting to know what i had asked for, I was wishing that i'll be slimmer, grow taller (i need some height so i can be an air stewardess and fly around the world for a few years for free! =P) and also waiting for my Prince Charming to come along, so that i can get married soon! (Don't judge ok! Its always my dream to start a family young and i love being commited. It keeps me striving for better things in life and having something to look forward to everyday).



Yee Sang that i bought from Sakae Sushi

This is the first Lou Sang event for the year in the pantry of my working place. It is said that the higher you 'lou', your wishes would be granted. So far, my wishes have yet to come true..=(



Finished work at 4pm and went home to get ready for the Family Reunion dinner. We went to a restaurant called the Super Tanker (some sort like that if i remember clearly) somewhere in Damansara.

The night appeared to be quite tense for almost everyone of us because of some unwanted event that happened to me and my cousin's life. My uncle who was sitting beside of me, kept asking me why didn't i bring my boyfriend for the dinner (he was totally clueless that he had already went to UK for studies and also he didn't know that we're not together anymore). My parents didn't dare say a word about it as i avoiding the question. In the end, I told him that i'm single now and yet he still didn't understand until my Aunt told him that we have broken up.

I was trying so hard to contain the tears from streaming down my face because i was watching my Aunt and grandmother getting all emotional about what they were discussing. Argh!! So much for having a happy reunion dinner!! (note: all of this happened 2 months back, so i have no problems talking about it, now that i'm over it!)

Since it wasn't a great night and i was too emotionally distracted till i forgot to snap some pictures during the dinner. Damn!

After dinner, me and my cousin and a group of friends decided that we'll have our own reunion at Republic for drinks. My cousin, Eng Soon had introduced us to a couple of drinking games which was totally hilarious!! It's so damn funny watching them play that i could pee in my pants!!(just a saying ok!)

Watch the clip below. This is called the 'Animal Game'. It is so damn retarded especially after down-ing a couple of drinks..

The gang (and a couple more that are not pictured here)

I was off for the first 4 days of CNY (sad right? most people get at least a week off..) and all i did was going for gambling sessions and drinking the whole day. Not very proud of it but i guess that's the only thing to do during the festive season right?

Oh wait, i remember going for movies with Curt and Trevor in Mid Valley too. HAha!! It was damn hilarious!! What happened was when me and Curt was trying to buy our movie tickets and the queue was unbelievably long. I had this really smart idea of using the Easy Access from the phone to reserve the tickets so that we could collect it at the reservation counter instead of getting stuck queing up.

I remembered clearly asking him if i got the date right and he said yeah. In the end, when we were going to theatre, the previous movie have not ended and we were stuck outside for another 1/2 hour after our movie time had started. And we still have no clue to what's going on! After the people from the previous movie left, we went in only to find that there's NOT even a single Chinese is watching the movie with us all. The worse thing was when the movie started, it was an Indian movie..Dang!! And then we realised that we had actually bought the right movie and time but only for the next day!! HahAha!! And obviously we left the theatre immediately!! Was laughing at ourselves for days..how dumb!!

-------------------------------------------------

We went for Ling Xiao's open house and as usual it was the drinking and gambling session. Some other guys were playing PS3 forming a band with vocalist, a drummer and guitarist. And the band was horrendous!! LolZ!!

Damn, how i miss playing Mah-Jong...!!!! Used to play Mah-Jong very frequent for pass time but not anymore. That night was my lucky night because i 'pau' most of the time and also had a 'tin wu'. *ngeks*

Me trying to teach Eli how to play Mah-Jong...

------------------------------------------------------------

Jennifer had an open house as well. Damn..her house is at Sungai Buloh! Super far..but it was all worth it because we were having heaps of fun!

She took us for a tour around her house (it was darn huge la!).

She had even catered food for all the guests with numerous amount of variety of food!! Yumm..The best part was the unlimited of alcohol that she have that got all us tipsy..

*Curt*Nick*Trevor*Me*Jen*

Beautiful fireworks display that lasted a couple of minutes at her house. It was just right above my head!!

We started drinking since 9pm until 5am! Started light with beer and after that Curt practically had a whole bottle of whisky by himself while me, Jen, Trevor and Nick was indulging our wine. We finished 6 bottles of wine by the end of the night. Shocking!

And this is what happened to Trevor in the end. He was sleeping with his head up on the air and was so drunk that he couldn't drive home and that gives Nick the advantage to drive his car (my dream car, Fairlady) back. Nick said that we should get him drunk more often so that he can drive his car again..heheee...

Classic picture of Trevor!!

---------------------------------------------------------

Had a private reunion dinner with my Chi Muis at Duck King, Jaya One (or was it King Duck?). We're usually loud when we're together. Talk cock, sing song as usual..

*Me*Pui Geet*Mun Yee*Tiffany*

A special desert bowl made of ice..how cute!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Had another 'lou sang' session at Nick's diner. Bought the Yee Sang and they didn't give us any chopsticks.

Preparing the Yee Sang..

And since Nick's diner serves Italian, we obviously didn't expect him to have any chopsticks right?? So we had no choice but to use the fork to 'lou sang' instead. Talking about East meets West! It was the first time in my life that i had to use the fork to 'lou sang'...haha!!

*Me*Trevor*Curt*Jen* Weird hor?!?

--------------------------------------------------------------------

I totally lost track on how many times i 'Lou Sanged' this year. But every 'Lou Sang' event, i remember that i've always wished for the same thing. Slimmer, Taller and a Prince Charming..none of it is granted yet...=( (I know growing taller is impossible ler! I realized that i stopped growing since i was 15 or 16 ler ok!)

I go to the gym to lose weight, but i have gained what i've lost after Bangkok. =( have to start working hard again...

And as for my Prince Charming, i'm still waiting for him to sweep me off my feet. I'm mostly in my fairytale dreamland these days because i've been listening too much to Taylor Swift's song. Mun Yee and Eli had been with me when i cried to her song and they were getting frustrated after listening to the same song throughout the whole day...haha!! Sorry babes for being such a pain in the ass that day..!!

Oh YEah!!! This year's CNY was particularly more fun because it's the FIRST CNY that i won some money from gambling....=))) hahaha!!


After a long winded post and still reading, you deserve this!! Enjoy!
