Cookie Jar- Gymn Class Heroes.

A damn good song! :p not to mention, addictive too...

Home :)

Oh man I'm so, so tired. Got back from work today at 10.30 p.m. Super overtime!!! It was my first time working on a proposal! More like I did the keh-leh-feh stuff.. ;) hehe. Nevertheless it was a good experience! Got to know my buddy better yesterday & today, and we're beginning to treat each other like buddy buddies now.. He reminds me so much of my brother cause he's so patient and cin-cai!!

Anyways I've been back in KL for a week already, to be exact. I arrived KL last wed late night, and went to work the next morning right away :( didn't even have time to unpack, or groom myself, etc etc! Then on Sat early morning, whole family drove down to Singapore and stayed there for 3 days 2 nights. Visited grandma, relatives, and i met up with some IH friends as well. Came back Monday late evening.

I'm taking my time to settle down here this time, not rush to meet everyone the moment I come back. I'm happy so far because I got to meet up with Lainey (and 2 of her friends- Tzu Siang and Vince) on Tues night and we went to Luna Bar! :) :) my first time there and I totally loved the view! for those of you who have not been there, you should! then last night, i met up with another very good friend of mine, pin. he brought his girl aubrey along and i'm happy i met her! she's very nice :)

I foresee very exciting weeks ahead!! Friends from U.K. and everywhere are cominggg back and some already did :D haha!! So it's gonna be work during the dayy and play during the night for me. Movies at One U, Coffee at the Curve, home cooked food, dinner/supper with family at my favourite places, mamak sessions, hawker stall food, partying with my girls from kdu, my favourite gym classes (i'll start soon), cheap karaoke sessions, badminton with mommy, meeting up with my favourite people here (soon, soon ok!!).

Yes, this is home. And nothing beats home. I'm happy to be back =)

Today, Eric, KK & I went to the Thai Office at the airport to settle our flight documents. Yes, we took a cab all the way to airport, and all the way back to the city. All for one piece of paper. Anyhow it's all confirmed now- I will be arriving KL on the 3rd (Wed) night! And sad to say I start work the very next day itself :( hopefully missing the first 2 days won't kill me.

Seriously I need some compensation of some sort. Extra accomodation costs, food, etc. Not to mention that the longer I stay in Melb, the more I will tend to spend. For instance:

How I spent my afternoon today.

Most of it are for family :) and friends back home!

I am so, so, happy because I finally got the gladiators (be it sandals, wedges or heels) I wanted for agesss!

Teehee, nice?? :)

Actually I kinda appreciate the unexpected extra days I have here in Melbourne.. It gives me time to be alone and do things that I want, though I must admit that coming back to IH now feels different as 90% of the people has gone back home. The corridor now is sooo quiet, I don't hear anyone in the showers/washroom, the common room is empty. I guess this is what I will be experiencing when I move out next year. Talk about this being a blessing in disguise :p

Last Friday, a few of us IH-ers went to the city to have Korean dinner! Zach & Sang kyu (a korean) planned it.. It was good! I particularly loved the miso-soup-alike.. "Dengjang chigae" that's what they call it :)

Part of the group @ By Korea

Zach, Harsh, me, Sang Kyu, Chris

It was my first time tasting soju- one of the top korean alcoholic beverages

On Saturday before going for my badminton social session, I sent the 2 indians and 1 singaporean off who lives on the same floor as I am off.

A group picture at the entrance! Noticed the 2 indians?

For dinner, it was jae's birthday gathering @ Docklands. 2 of her very good friends planned it. Thank you for inviting me :) She only came in mid-year but I'm glad I got closer to her lately when we were studying as we have 2 of the same subjs.

The gorgeous girls @ the tram stop :))

Haha, my dish for the night! Caesar salad :)
'cause I had dinner at IH beforehand already. want to lose weight ma people.

All of us outside Medici Bar

We then headed back to IH to cut the cake for Jaee! :)

Happy Birthday again, girl! :P
The Guess necklace we all got her (mel bought it as jae mentioned that she liked it) was GORGEOUS.

Yay, I finished a post with proper pictures! That's what having so much time for youself does to you. :p

I dread packing, so I blogged :p

I'm going crazy! I really doubt that I can finish packing the things in my room. So many pieces of clothes that I wonder, where did all these clothes come from. I told myself, by hook or by crook, I am going to finish packing tonight. As I'm writing this out, I'm shaking my head in dismay as I know I have a long night ahead of me to pack. Oh god. And blogging seemed to be the best option I have now, to 'dump' everything out, instead of always dumping to my brother and my mom :p And, at least I have 2 companions joining me in this, Michelle Cai and Luxian, whom are leaving tomrorow. Both whom are worse than me, MC has 16 boxes in total! Crazy!!!!

It's so sad seeing people leave one by one. Especially when you're living in a residential college, you see people on your floor pack and leave, and part goodbye. Though you may not be that close to them, somehow you'll still feel a little sad. I don't know, I feel that way. Last Sunday, before Riyan left, he gave me a letter with a note & poem inside. He gave this to all his good friends here. I'm glad I'm one of them, despite me not being in his circle of friends he hangs out with most of the time. I play baddy with him. It's such a heartfelt and meaningful poem, and I want to share it with all of you. Maybe the next post.

2 more days till I touchdown KLIA. Well, that depends on the situation in Bangkok. Please lah, let me go back can? I want my dim sum brunch with family. I want to drive my mom's new Golf GTI. I want to annoy the hell out of my brothers. I want to taste my grandma's awesome home cooked food. I want to meet up all my beloved friends back home.

seeee the pictures I posted on my wall to rememberr all of you :)

December is definitely a month to look forward to! Dad and Shaun's birthdays, Riyan's coming to visit (all the wayy from Indonesiaa!), Monica's coming to visit as well (all the way from Phillipines), my darling Siew Mei is coming back for holidayss from the UK!, so are other peeps like Yng, Jiat, DS etc, kinda disappointed that Fan & Keat are not coming back thou. Hmm, what else? Oh yeah, to party and hang out as much as possible with Foong before he goes to the states in Jan, to meet up with all my beloved high school friends...

However, besides all fun & joy, I will be interning as well in December and January. Not Accenture this time, but PWC. So I'll be hopping the LRT once again. BUT, those of you back home, please ask me out still ok! I'm only busy during the day, but nights and weekends, I'm free :)

My past week has been very chilling and that was just exactly what I needed. Haven't been putting my camera to good use... so I'll just make do with a few pics I took:

Smith Street with Mr.Lee Jia Wei

And the DELICIOUS choc cookie cake we had :D

Clubbing last Fri with friends.
P.S. Ken, do you remember Su Mei? :) Bumped into her!

With Jo.

Working the yeemin with Rachel in JW's apartment

with another Jia Wei

I'm meaning to be at a drinking party now. And I really appreciate it when you invite me all the time to everything. And I'm sorry for not turning up. I do feel bad. Just wanted you to know, Chings. I will see you back in Malaysia?

Sigh, time to continue packing. SIGH.

I was just thinking in the library today (Sigh I've been going to the library quite a lot these days), 2 weeks as of today, and I will be home! :) 3 days as of today, and I will be freeeee! Say byebye to exams then hehe.

At the mean time, I have one more day to study for my intermediate financial accounting paper on tuesday. And QM2 the next day. I really wish it weren't back to back. How to focus on both papers like that :( Sighhh, nvm, look on the bright side wei lynn! You can do this!

Back to leases, asset revaluations, foreign currency transactions, and CONSOLIDATIONS whatnot. I love, love, love, accounting. Yes, I do. Yes, just keep telling yourself that wei lynn. But it's truee, I do, okay, when I get the answers right.

See you all soon in a bit! :)

Because tonight will be the night...

I was at the library just now whilst listening to my ipod, and this song came up and hit me there & then. I have always loved this song, but you know how sometimes when you listen to songs, it hits you at a certain point? So immediately when I came home, I youtube-ed it to search for the original video. I was shocked (in a good way of course!) at the amount of people out there who can sing this song SO WELL, all accompanied with the guitar. What more is that- most of them are GIRLS! I am so, so, amazed. I also want to play the guitar & sing like that! ;)

For those of you who have yet to listen to this amazing song, here you go:

'Fall for you'

by Secondhand Serenade

The best thing about tonight's that we're not fighting

Could it be that we have been this way before?

I know you don't think that I am trying

I know you're wearing thin down to the core

But hold your breath

Because tonight will be the night

That I will fall for you over again

Don't make me change my mind

**

It's such an amazing song. Don't you all agree?

Go youtube videos by other people as well :) I particularly like the one by juliajulay, silentview and krista nicole. Their voice... I have no words to describe so please, go listen and tell me,

did it melt your heart like how it melt mine?

I'm back on high demand! (hehe bet you guys missed my self-praises too right) Anyway, I'm so happy and amazed that many of you still drop by my blog every now and then, and for some (almost all the time?), and question me why did I privatise it, and to invite you as readers. Haha. Thanks, guys! It's always good to know that your friends back home are thinking of you still. :p And rest assured that I'm thinking of you all too! Really can't wait to go back!!

So for starters, let's do some updates. My exams are going on mid-way now, hence the last emo post. I know, I talk as if some major drama has happened, right? Quite major ok, I blew away my 1st question in OB today just like that just because I skipped that part in the lecture notes, thinking it was unimportant. Silly me, everything is important, especially when your lecturer asked you to particularly read just that week's lecture notes. It's ok, it's over.

Also, my beloved (ahh, yes) Corporate Law paper is over & done with, on Monday. Can't believe we made and compiled notes so neatly, and didn't even come close to using them in the exam. I didn't have time to open and flip the textbook, mind you! It was a very, very interesting subject nonetheless and I'm glad I took it. No regrets. Despite me whining about it all semester, I actually enjoy reading the book because it's a whole new thing to me! Now when I look at company and business transactions, I look at it in a whole new perspective. So ppl, don't try and cheat me ok!! Don't even try.... haha. Or I might 'outsmart' you all instead.

thank you, for being such an amazing companion for the 2 weeks before exams

(still amazing, nonetheless)

the 'best friend' & I in one of the tute rooms in IH

(I took a pic of this room because it reminded me so much of those old, traditional rooms in harry potter movies)

Don't you all agree with me that he's... insatiable?

And that's how I'll end this post- by saving the best for last. Hahaha.

And after a call from my mom, some retail therapy (which I regretted later), a talk with Monica, a dose of Gossip Girl episode 10 aaand, instant noodles for dinner (i skipped IH dinner), I feel so much better! Also not forgetting, some really really sweet sms-es from 2 people :)

Seems like all we need is family, friends, food, and fun and all's good. :) It's true!
