Ambassador program.

Thank goodness I logged into monash portal today.

I was sent a application to Host Scheme Leaders-Volunteer Position as part of the Ambassador program I'm doing this year. So happy I logged in today coz the closing date is tomorrow!! What luck!!! Actually, I didn't planned to logged into my monash coz I'm so done with logging in due to that exam. Infact I planned to log in after Febuary. But, today, my fingers just went clicking into my monash. LOL.

So, yeah, I immediately signed up to it. I am very excited about this Ambassador program. It's something I'm really looking forward this year. I'll be helping out with the new students this year, like the O-week, mid-week social nights, fund-raising events, balls etc. The one I'm really looking forward to is the professional side of the program. I get to be involved with professional courses and seminars that are organised by business companies. It's really a way to get in touch with the corporate world. Hopefully, I get to score myself an internship by the end of this year.

I'm also looking forward to getting to know people. The thing I'm afraid about is juggling everything. Work, play and school. But, I'm still very looking forward to this.

2 days left of my FB fasting!!

I am hooked to a Malaysian drama!!! 爱在你左右 or Love is all around.

Really hooked!!! I got hooked on last year, no correction, 2 yrs ago (my gosh.. where did time go??), when I went back to Malaysia and the series just started. It is a really good, for a local drama. I didnt get to finish watching it coz I have to fly back here, which is a pity!!! It really blew my socks off because local films are always very lousy. Actually, I don't know if its Malaysian or Singaporean but whatever, the setting is in KL and some of the actors are Malaysian.

I think its better than those Taiwanese dramas coz the story line is super duper good. Unlike those Taiwanese dramas who always seem to have the same story line. But, this is different! The starting is quite weird, but still good if u don't think it logically. I'm watching it on (no, not youtube), but tudou.com!!! I love the theme song as well!!! It's soooo damn good.

AND! I cried while watching it!! It is THAT GOOD for a local drama!!!!! It's so romantic, so funny, so sad... all the emotions u could imagine!!! It kinda made me miss Malaysia abit, after all I AM still Malaysian. It made me proud to be Malaysian and proud to be Chinese as well (coz I understand the drama). I think I will watch more Chinese language dramas to keep my Chinese intact!! I did not study Chinese and end up forgetting it!! I don't want to go back to Malaysia and not able to speak to my relatives in Chinese, that would be awful, or worst, embarrasing!!

Oh gosh.. this is going to be a long night coz its super hot right now. Man... I cannot stand this heat!!! If u ask me whether I prefer 30 degree weather to 10 degree weather? I would prefer 10 degree weather. And its beyond 30 degrees now. Hot weather really messes ur head up!!

CNY

My gosh... temperature this week is beyond 40 degrees. Worst enough, it's 41 degrees, the hottest day of the week and I am working. Man... I am not liking this.

Happy CNY people!!!!

This year CNY was better (coz dad's here). I was in the mood this year. We made peanut cookies, which is how we used to do back home during CNY. The smell of baked cookies really brought me home. I remember we used to make choc. cake, almond cookies and frosted cheesecake every single CNY. So, making peanut cookies was really very memorable. Dad had CNY music on, u know, those Chinese music where the singers are almost out of tuned, with drums and gongs. LOL. It reminded me of how we used to practice singing these CNY music during primary school in music class. LOL. I recalled that we used to have a nasty music teacher that would take the shit out of u. I remember she once warned this kid (who she hated) to not key her car once she's done teaching him/us. LOL.

Happy CNY. I love CNY. I got angpao this year. Dad ALMOST forgot to give us. ALMOST. I kinda reminded him about it. LOL. Celebrating two new years in a year is kinda good. Apparently, this is my year. LOL. I was telling John about CNY and he's like what's that? Yup. It was fun telling him about my culture and heritage.

Unscripted

Today, I went to the Office Work to get some pens and books for uni. Then, helped mum with grocery shopping for our CNY party this Monday.

We're gonna have indian mixed chips for entree, glutinous rice with dried prawns, mushrooms, nuts and chicken, grilled steak (since its Aus. Day as well), Cendol as drinks, but not sure about dessert yet. LOL.

Anyway, my brother got a job in a florist Warehouse called Roses Only in West Melbourne. He's working as casual and has work 2 days before VDay. LOL. He'll be packing the roses, tying them, making them pretty... etc...

AND. What else? I've been reading random blogs esp. xanga blogs from people I don't know. It's really fascinating to see other people's life. I've come across models, dancers, photographers, teens, writers, christian bloggers. It's actually much more interesting reading about guy's life, and see how they think... etc... I also came across alot of blogs where girls are obsessing about their weight and writing down their calory intake... etc... which is quite an eye opener to me. Actually its very worrying to me that someone would put image first and reject their health. The blogs have skinny horrifying pics. I cannot believe how someone would even WANT to look like that.

But, its nice to read. I haven't come across any Accountant blogs YET!! LOL. Would be interesting to read those ones!!!

I forgot to blog about yesterday's exam. It was alright, quite easy than I thought. I was soooo freaking tired after the exam!!! I've never felt that tired ever esp. during hols. I guess it's good preparation once work starts which is Sat and I have to work freaking 9 hrs!!! Then, I went to sleep at around 9. OMGosh, someone's phone went off in the middle of the exam. Man... so bad luck!! Coz u get fine $6oo if ur phone goes off. LOL. That's why I was so phobia of bringing my phone to exams.

Dad went to the hospital. It wasn't an emergency, just a routine check-up of his blood pressure and heart check-up. He came back with a blood pressure meter strap around his waist. I'm abit worried about everything. Dad has been complaining about heart problems lately. He's have had blood pressure problems and arthritis problems. But, its good that dad is starting going for check-ups and keeping close eye on his health.

This Monday is CNY, which coincides with Australia Day!!! I get a day off work which makes me a happy person. But, really, I'm not in the mood. I didn't even go dress shopping for CNY!!! And no "house hopping". We're having a party at home which is why I am so happy I don't have to work. GIVE ME ANGPAO TO SHUT ME UP!!! LOL.

I got my sunnies today. Yeah. Another scorching day, with the mercury reaching 40 degrees. Thank God its cooler tmrw coz my exam is tmrw, and I cannot imagine how I'm going to think if its as hot as today. But, fingers crossed. I will get HD!!!

Money.

I found a 100 dollar note in my drawer!!! HAHAHA.

Okay, here's the thing. I keep dollar notes in my drawer coz I'm too lazy to bank in to my account and my mum nags me for it.

"You won't be getting any interest if u don't bank in ur money"

But, meh.

Anyway, I keep piling my drawer with unnecessary stuff like files, books, text books, pens, paper etc and my money gets hidden in the pile. How diligent!! LOL.

And today, I found a 100 dollar note. Initially, I tot I only had one 100 dollar note in my drawer but turns out I have two!!!!! So, yeah. Really had a wow moment. I love green notes!!! What's more exciting is as of last year, I've managed to save 3000 dollars. I am very proud of myself!!!

I am saving up for something!! It's end-of-year OCF 50th convention which is (u won't guess) in Malacca or Melaka (how ever u wish to call it)!!!! My brother said it would be the most expensive convention ever, but considering the exchange rate is it?? And living expenses in Malaysia is so low compared to here. 3 dollar meal, possibly less. I really hope the Aussie dollar will go up soon, please go up, so I can get more ringgit for an AUD. I'm also saving coz I'm sponsoring a child and my brother tells me OCF are planning every CG to sponsor a child so I'm saving up for that as well. As well as textbooks and transport tickets and not to mention maybe something for the future like a car or moving out after graduation (just a thought).

I've promised not to spend anymore until I start working which starts next week. And cudos for me for resisting temptation to spend during end-of-year sales!!!!! :) U have no idea how hard it was!!!

You should also know that I get sick when I think of our friendship. Go and drown yourself.

Loves, Sal.
P/S : You're so lifeless, dumb bitch.


Hmm... interesting. I didn't mean that btw.

Special mail

My gosh... this two days have been extremely hot. Sweltering heat around 38/39 degrees. But to my disbelieve, I managed to SLEEP BETTER last night, which is very very unusual, since the whole room was freaking stuffy and hot. LOL.

I got a very special mail today. Really made my day. I got a gift from my cousin back in Malaysia, it was a white, leather Vincci purse.

I wasn't expecting anything extravagant like a Vincci purse but she told me its not that expensive. I really like it!! I think that's the only branded thing I have. Oh wait, after the Santa Barbara bag my aunt gave me, the purse is the 2nd thing that is branded.

I am so very touched!!

Anyway, better study or I'll regret it, one regret is enough to handle.

On another note, my FB fasting is going well. I'm currently reading through 2nd Timothy. I started reading from Philippians. I know, its a very weird place to start. It's because last BS (Bible Study), we focused on the book of Philippians. We studied the whole book for the whole 2nd semester. So, I figured that I might continue from there. I love reading the Bible, it really is very motivating. This quiet time really is a way to forget about my hectic, spiraling life.

Sea Princesses

I love this cartoon show!!!!! Sea Princesses!!!!!!



I wake up every week day at 9.30 just to catch this show!!! I even put my alarm to 9.30 just so I don't miss it. It's sooo adorable and cute. I like their costumes and and how their headgear coincides with the type of fish they are. The stories are soooo creative! Too bad youtube doesn't have it in an English version. What a pity!

I love it!!

Lucky.

I love this song!!! It's very sweet!!!

The video could be better tho. I think it was not shot in the same place and the two should have met up in the end. And camera angles is a problem, they should not have too many upward shots of Jason but more straight shots to give a clear, perfect shot of Jason's face. I think he looks very fine in suit. But the two voices work perfectly together.

Jason Mraz Feat. Colbie Caillat - Lucky

LYRICS:

Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Oooohhhhoohhhhohhooohhooohhooohoooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music, feel the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Brownies!!

I made Brownies the other day. It turn out quite alright. My brother said its quite bitter tho, but I kinda like it bitter. I hate awfully sweet things which taste quite gross over time. That's why I never buy brownies from shops coz they are always very sweet. I dunno why the shops make them VERY sweet, firstly, customers (ie me) hate the sweetness, secondly, the shops saved ALOT (by cutting down on sugar) and thirdly, it is cheaper for customers and in turn generate sales!! This goes for all the cakes and dessert as well!!

But mine turned out just right. It really comes down to ur own personal taste!!!

Here's the recipe.

1 1/2 cup caster sugar. (For sweet tooth people, add sugar according to personal taste)
250g melted butter.
4 eggs.
1 1/2 cup plain flour.
6 tablespoon of cocoa (I would suggest cutting it if u want it to be less bitter).

First, mix the caster sugar and melted butter in a bowl. Then, put in the eggs, one at a time, while mixing at the same time. Fold the flour and cocoa. Make sure u sieve them to get rid of chunky bits. Mix all the ingredients together thoroughly.

Line a flat thin with baking paper. Make sure u spread the mixture evenly with a 1cm thickness. Baked in a 180 degree oven for 20-25 minutes or until cook. It might still look bubbly after 25 minutes but don't worry, the butter will harden once cooled. It depends whether u like ur brownie rock solid or gooey soft. I like mine rock solid. LOL.

For variations, I would recommend adding choc chips, smarties, or for something exotic, maybe some nuts like walnut, almond or my fave pistachio (altho quite pricey) or dried fruits like apricot or sultanas.

Enjoy!!! Next project, butter cookies, kaya spread or choc mousse (still waiting on mum to buy a whisk!!)

Edward look-alike.

I reckon Giles Simon looks like the guy who played Edward Cullen. That guy... what's his name?? Rob something?? That's right Robert Patterson. (such a gay name I have to admit, would be a sin to name someone Robert. But Thank God he's cute)

I am currently searching for a decent pic of Giles Simon. It's quite hard because tennis players NEVER EVER smile on the court. And when they do, the cameras fail to catch him. But, really, he looks exactly like that Robert Patterson guy. I was watching Hopman's Cup in Perth and came across Giles Simon playing a match.

First impression: geez...he's cute. 2nd time: He looks familiar. 3rd time: He looks awfully familiar!!! Where have I seen him before??? After 3 days of watching him on telly, something click, oh yeah... Edward Cullen. That's it!!! Or more like the actor that plays Edward Cullen!!!

Still searching for a pic. Okay... I cannot find a smiley pic of him. So, I'll put up a serious face of Simon. AND! I have a serious face of "Edward Cullen". Seriously, it is eerie, they look very alike! I'm still looking for it. =_=. Please feel free to google.

Ok. This will have to do.

SIMON



EDWARD

Alike? Yes?? I bet if they switch careers, no one would even have a clue, appearance wise I mean. I personally think Simon is cuter (coz Edward's photo is photoshop!!!) coz he's french and kicks ass on tennis courts!!!

Man.. that took me a long time, that's why my blog is photoless.

Just felt like blogging

Alright. I will be starting fasting Facebook today for the next 21 days. It's part of the ROAR fasting together thing before the first semester for 09 starts end of this month. I will be successful this time. I will not go astray this time.

Man... I hate Fox fm's "Ball's in Your Court" on air competition. Everytime I listen to someone getting FREE DOUBLE ground pass to Aus. Open, I cringe!! I so desperately want a free ticket!! But, nevertheless, its ONLY ground pass, not to matches. I'm going with my brother anyway.

Stupid Management exam. It feels so pathetic that I still have exams DURING HOLIDAYS!!! Argh.. all mum's fault for making me sick during exam period!!! I'm still logging into my monash portal and BLACKBOARD!!! I might be the ONLY one who still logs into my monash during hols. I should get an award of it!! But, my goal this year is to get Ds the least. I am not aiming for HDs. HDs is good I won't lie, but Ds is alright standard for me, besides who checks ur results (other than ur parents..geez) to see how many HDs u have. It's not like u have results written all over ur face. This is what everyone keep saying on results day: "meh, I passed, and I didn't even study. Cheh!!". So, why go through all the trouble to get HDs when Ds is good enough to get u off the line??

I'm still waiting on my sunnies. The OPSM people said that the frame they receive was faulty and was waiting for the replacement. I still owe mum 20 bucks tho.

08.

Alright since I have nothing to do until 9, I will blog about 08. I didn't want to blog about 08 since there are some things I rather not recall, but, I will still summarize 08 (not like anyone is reading yes???)

This year, I started uni. Uni wasn't a huge change, it wasn't interesting too. At first, I was all excited but bleh its still somehow not very different to highschool. Really!! I got to know HEAPS of people but I gain some close friendship, not acquaintance, but true friendship, like highschool where I only had (and still have) the bunch of people I hang around. It's funny, if I bump into someone from my yr level, I will immediately recognise that he/she is in my yr level and in the buseco faculty but I wouldn't know their name or wouldn't even know them personally (if that makes sense). Lecture hall is really the place to see these familiar faces over and over again. But, u don't get the chance to personally do the whole introduction, hi how r u thing and get to know them until u have the same tute classes together.

My achievements had some ups and downs. First semester, I was cruising. My grades were unbelievable. Exams were easy as, Second semester, it was the opposite, my grades dropped horrendously(okay maybe not), but I wasn't doing my best. Last minute work, not showing up to tuts and lectures and late nights studying for exams. I was struggling in every corner. Exams suddenly turned hard for me. It wasn't good enough to get me off the line. I started to self-doubt myself, whether I'm capable, whether this course is what I wanted. I could have done better, I could have put more effort but my ego from first semester took over. There was definitely a stressful period where I broke down and cried. It was definitely a depressing period for me.

My walk with God was another thing. First semester, I felt lost, I really felt lost. I guess life was too good that I seem to let myself go. There was nothing I had to worry about. It felt like I didn't need God (I know a sad thing to say). I wasn't listening, paying attention to God. Church seems like a ritual to me and I was house searching for a LG that I can connect with but none of them seem right.

But, come second semester, I joined OCF. It was quite intimidating actually. The first time, I walked into a prayer meeting with my brother. Gosh... I mean can't blame me, first timer for feeling intimidated. But as they were praying, weird enough, the atmosphere was all too familiar to me, I know this feeling, this feeling when u sense something strong in the midst. Regardless not knowing any of these people, I actually felt safe and secure. OCF has brought me to a higher level, OCF was a place that I instanly felt connected. I started going every week with my brother. My brother made everything feel less intimidating. I started joining the BS (Bible study) with my group Smoky Sinai where I learn ALOT. I even helped out with E-night and Thanksgiving night.

I am in awe at these OCFers. These people have so much faith, and so much love for God. At first, I wasn't too keen on joining OCF because to me it's just a student organisation. I wanted to connect with a group that can help me to grow, I was looking for something with connection to a CHURCH but as I said, I was wrong enough. I couldn't find a place that I feel comfortable until OCF. OCFers are unbelivably dedicated to God, the way they pray, express, worship God open my eyes to see how much I have been missing out on. I was spending more quiet time with God. I fasted for the very first time!!! I sponsored a child too!!! I prayed to God frequently. The thing I find amazing is the strong bond between all OCFers and how they can just share and talk about life towards each other. I still find it hard to open up (even to my close friends and family) about life, my issues, my problems etc... I hope to be able to open up my feelings soon.

I got my first job. There are ups and downs about the job. But, this experience is one of value to me. I certainly got "richer" and I know a great knowledge about German and Swiss cakes, breads and buns. Somehow, this experience made me tougher as a person and my confidence grew. I was able to do problem solving and I learn to be quick thinking. It was definitely an experience.

Family, dad came to live with us in the second half of the yr which was a thrill to me. After a yr living in M'sia, I was grateful to have dad living here again. I remember how I cried the day dad left. Dad immediately got a job at Taylors which was a blessing to the family. My brothers are still the same. We spent heaps more time together as a family. We had more trips once dad got here. The family was more discipline, in terms of my brothers are more well behave with dad here. Mum cried less, oh... those days were hell but with dad here at least mum got some closure.

Hmm what else.. love life?? I GOT A BOYFRIEND. LOL. U're waiting for me to say that aren't u?? LOL. No... It's still the same as usual. But, one day... one day... u wait!!! I'm still catching up with my girlfriends and having lots of fun together.

Okay... 08 was not too bad. I definitely grown ALOT. There are certainty some "what if" moments and "oh well'' moments, disappointment and regrets. But, I think I lived it to my best potential. I took every opportunity I could possibly get. 08 was a success, given some of my failure, it still is a success!!!!!!

Dreams #4

Yesterday I had the happiest dream. I dreamed of my cousins back in Malaysia and I dreamed of my late aunt. How weird. How very weird.

I dreamed that they came to see me at work and I was really happy to see them. I still remember I first hugged Hui Lyn and then hugged my aunt. It was the best feeling ever eventho I was just dreaming. LOL. Then, someone (I cannot remember exactlywho) said Hui Yung's shirt would fit u 10 yrs ago. I was like WTH and ignored it.

I was quite happy to see them. Speaking of which, my cousin Ah Onn is getting married today, right this minute I'm typing this. I love weddings... esp. the Chinese tradition where the groom has to go to the bride's place to bring her to his place and the groom has to go through a few "obstacles" to reach his bride-to-be. And sometimes these "obstacles" are quite cruel and red packets are involved. LOL. So glad I would be doing that, my groom will tho. LOL. Then the whole drinking tea ceremony, which I think is quite boring, no one really pays attention to that. LOL.

Congrats. I love weddings.

Custard tarts

I baked some custard tarts today. Initially, it was just meant to be custard just for dipping and stuff then mum suggested to get those tart shells from Safeway. So, ended up with custard TART. I LOVE CUSTARD TART!!! I love love them. Those ones I baked were quite alright, could have cut backed on the sugar content tho, but taste a WHOLE LOT better with the tart shells.

Mum joked that I should study culinary skills in tafe instead since I like cooking so much. U will not believe how I started the idea of cooking custard tarts. I watched the Ready Steady Cook show and they were making custard tarts which somehow "inspired" me. LOL. I wanted to make it since ages ago given my love for custard tarts so making them my own would be a great way to save up cash and fullfilling any cravings.

Man.. I hate u now mum (in a good way) for putting that thought in my head. Maybe I should... since studying for Accounting is so DAMN BLOODY HARD, uni exams is one, CPA is GUT WRENCHING u could just cry and the profession itself is MIND-BLOWING. But, too late now... we'll see in the future once I get sick of accounting. LOL.

Oh yeah, Happy 09. Next blog will be my reflection of 08, wasn't going to blog about 08 since there's some things I rather not recall. But wth. 09, there's things I look forward to and things I dread.

But yeah. Bring on 09!!
