Time really flies...

... when you're caught up in a lot of things. Hi All!!! I can't believe that i made it through another year. To me this year passed by so fast and it seemed that yesterday was something i did last march. Wow... time really did fly. I must admit that i did went through some tough times and i hope that next year would be better. Hopefully there will be lesser tough times and more good times.

Before i get on to what might be my plans for next year, i want to talk about the singer Bi Rain. My friend from Melbourne, one of the twins, Kakra is crazy about Rain and she posted a link on my facebook wall. And it was Rain's video. OMG!!! He is so FREAKING HOT!!! Check out this link and tell me if you don't agree with me. I LOVED the part when he ripped his shirt and when he pulled his shirt over his head and danced. OMG!!!! It's so hot!!! HOTNESS i tell you!!!! hahahaha... okie enough of going man crazy for now.

On my transit in SG, i did write out a list of what i wanted to do next year. Well in 2012, instead of going to UK, we will probably head back to Melbourne and then go to New Zealand. And the baking biz, i'm not too sure about that now... At the moment i don't think next year will be the right time just yet. And as usual, i still have not found my direction yet. I'm still exploring a lot of possibilities for now. Hopefully it will come soon. I think this is it for now. I'm gonna go indulge myself in more Rain videos on you tube... hahahah. Bubyez... Muahz <3

I'm back!!!! =D

Hey all, so yeah i'm back from Melbourne. I touched down in Brunei on a Wednesday Afternoon. My trip was a very relaxing one and i really had a good time plus, my sis and i is gonna make this a bi-annual trip! Yay! I had fun getting to know my sister friends and it was very cool. They are twins and the difference between them is quite huge. Anywhoos, When i left, i was in SG in transit for 2hrs and you know what, i bumped into Rozan. He used to work with the bank and the same building i was in. He was also in transit before going off somewhere for work. It was good to see him and it was a bit weird that i would actually bump into him outside of Brunei. Hahahahah. So the trip from SG to Melbourne lasted 7hrs. In that time i manage to sleep a bit, watch a couple of tv series and Despicable Me. Despicable Me was a really good movie.

So we landed in Melbourne at 10++ am and the twins picked us up. We got lost trying to go back to one of their houses from the airport... hahahaha... that same night, they had the hens night for one of the twins and we actually went to a strip club! hahahaha... it was the first for me and the waiters were so hot plus they were topless the whole time!!! With their muscles and their fit abs... woooohhhhhh.... i enjoyed what i was looking at.... hahahaha =P. The next few days after that we were running around with the twins, assisting them with errands and helping them in the kitchen and all. So when the wedding day came it was cool, the reception i must say is different from what we normally have here but it was interesting. It shows how different cultures celebrate marriage differently. There were so many things that happened when i was there that i dunno where to start. I'll just give u a short list of things that i did/see... well just the highlight of it =)
  1. I went to a strip club and enjoyed the sight =D)))
  2. Had a good time at the wedding and found how they did things were interesting.
  3. After the wedding, we went to Phillip Island, a mini holiday in my holiday... hehehehe =D
  4. Went to the Nobbies, Chocolate Factory, A Maze and Things and the Penguin Parade while we were in Philip Island.
  5. Got pooped by a seagull while i was at the Nobbies.
  6. Since the house we were staying at Philip Island was so close to the beach, we went to the beach often.
  7. Saw a seal while we were at the beach.
  8. Flew a kite while i was at the beach.
  9. After Philip Island, we went to the other twin's house in Dandenong.
  10. I walked to Dandenong Plaza =D
  11. Visited 2 Direct Factory Outlets.
  12. Went to Northlands 2-3 times that week we landed when we were there.
  13. I love K-MART!
  14. Watched a korean drama, Full House while i was there.
  15. Went to Docklands.
  16. Pancake Parlour is the BOMB!
  17. Watched Narnia in 3D while i was there, but seriously, not worth your money, movie did not have as much action and some parts were not even in 3D! Plus Prince Caspian never took of his shirt =(
  18. And oh, we visited a friend in St Kilda =D

And i think that is it...but u know pictures speak a million words, so if u have me on Facebook, check out my pics =D For now, i'll just leave you with some pictures =D. That's it for now... Bubyez!!! Muahz <3

Hellew

Hi All, it's exactly 2 weeks before i fly off for my long awaited holiday. A few things that is currently happening, firstly, i'm selling off my PSP slim because i don't use it as often as i should so i feel it's such a shame to leave it lying around the house with no use. I got a buyer already so hopefully all goes well =) Who knows next year i upgrade to an ipod touch... heheheheh...

Other things, the other day i went to Lilli Lingerie and i came out with 2, well undergarments... i'm going to be very clean with my words here...hahahaha.... it's not what you think... seriously... hahahah... i did not come out with lingeries, i came out with 2 bras to be exact. You're probably wondering why i would go buy them there well i will tell you why. I don't remember what year it was but i was having a dilemma with supporting my "girlies", back then my current support was not very good and my back was always in pain. So one day, my sister decided to bring me there because one of her friend recommened to bring me there. so when i got there, i got measured and put into the right support and hey presto! my back problems are gone! So eversince then i have been using bras from Lilli Lingerie and i cannot go back to them normal ones because... well i don't fit there anymore, if you know what i mean. To be honest, yes the bras are quite pricey but they last you quite a long time and good support is essential. Being plus sized, there is no way where you can lie about your size and think you can fit into them normal off the shelf hua ho kinds... hahahaha. Ans it does make a lot of difference, so ladies, if you know that you are well equipped and when you can afford it, do drop by there and check it out, at least get measured and buy 1. you will definately feel the difference =). ok enough of bras.... on to other things..

The other day, i had a thought. i wanted to make a list of things i want to do next year.... i was so enthusiastic about it in my head that i now forgot some of the things in my list.... so here goes... somethings on my list =D

1. Try flying via Air Asia once.
2. Try to spend my birthday overseas.
3. Buy that $600+++ oven
4. Lauch the online baking biz
5. Buy an ipod touch
6. Wash my car more often or send it to the car wash more often.
7. make plans and save up for 2012 UK trip
8. Look for outside opportunities
9. Spend on diamonds on myself

I think that is it for now.... i gotta go back up and work... will try to blog more soon =D

Raya and random stuff

Hi All... so i've been missing for quite some time again... A very Selamat Hari Raya to all of you out there. Maaf Zahir dan Batin. Hope you all have a good time visiting friends and family. To be honest i was busy making chocolate cornflakes and famous amos chocolate chip cookies during puasa and like i said in my earlier post this year was the biggest order i have ever received. These cookies had to be the size of a 50cent coin as per requested and i can tell you it took me the longest time ever to bake!!! And also last night i attended my kaka angkat Diwi's open house. There is a story to this, she actually wanted me to make my Marie biscuit tiramisu dessert as her...well....dessert =). So the night before event, i decided to buy my ingredients... i bought everything except for Philadelphia cream cheese because i could not find any. I even sent my sister on a wild goose chase to find the cream cheese but to no avail. So i texted Dee to tell her i can't make the tiramisu because i can't find cream cheese but i will make her something for dessert. She said ok and that just as long as i made her some dessert she's fine. I spent till midnight that night looking for a fast and easy dessert and i found it, Soya Bean Milk Jelly Longan dessert. And i had to buy my stuff and the individual cups for it too... I again did not take any pictures because i was too busy... my mum took her time in the kitchen and i started at a later time. i actually made 2 kinds, Soya Bean and Bandung. The last batch of the dessert did not have enough time to set but overall for an untested and first batch run dessert, it turned out to be a success!!! =D yay!!! It was a crowd-pleaser and a lot of people liked it!!! So i now know what i need to prepare beforehand when i make this dessert.

Today, i actually got up to church because my sister wanted to bring me to Heidi's house for Raya. Whilst getting ready we both decided that we should actually come back home before going to Heidi's and that i could go back to sleep if i wanted to but since i already showered and was halfway dressed, i decided to just go. The service today was interesting because of 2 things; 1. the choir was bigger and they are called a Chorale and 2. the guest speaker for the sermon Mrs Chan. The choir (my sister is also in it) did very well. They sounded really good today. Then there was Mrs Chan, the guest speaker. Now this was the really interesting bit. Just to give you a background on Mrs Chan, she's actually a music director in a church and a choir consultant for churches. In the early part of her sermon she mentioned that it will be a participative sermon. So during the sermon not only did she gave us her personal testimonies in the Lord and made us read Bible verses for her, she actually belted out songs in between. I think it was 5-6 songs. And in the earlier parts, when we were not participating by reading the verses on the screen she actually said to us "You all need to help me read these Bible verses, if not i won't be able to sing later" i thought that was strange and a few minutes later, she sang us a song, kinda opera style. My personal thoughts on this went like this :-
  1. Wow, it's like a musical. Breaking out in songs in between.
  2. She was full of expression and emotion, so i think in real life she must be a bit of a drama queen, her expressions, actions and voice said it all.
  3. That sermon kept me wide awake... Don't judge me on this, i'm sure some of you out there have nearly fell asleep during a sermon =D
  4. She's a really, really, really good singer; hands down, no questions asked.
  5. Wow... that was a really interesting sermon, the content and the style.
So yeah it was really interesting. Nothing much happened after that. We just went for breakfast and while my mum and aunt did some grocery shopping, my sis and i went to look at some kains. My sis bought a lot today and i did not want to tempt myself just yet because for me pay day is just 2 days away!!! Yay!!!! =D The happiest time of the month for most people... hahahaha. After that we got back home, changed and went to Heidi's new house and HOMAIGAWD!!!!! LAWA BAH RUMAHNYA!!!! hahahahah... i love the style of the house and the kitchen was HUGE!!! i love the fact that the style was a bit western whereby at the windows, there is a built in seat or space where you can sit and from the living room. Since the doors going out to the garden was clear glass doors, the view overlooking the garden was really beautiful. Heidi told us that if we have time, we can just chill at her house. And if we do that, i am so going to take pictures and explore the house!!! It is a really beautiful house and i want one just like that... heheheheh =P

Before i sign off, just some random thoughts :-
  • if i am not mistaken, i have about 61 more days to my Australia trip!!!! Yay!!!! I need double check my calendar tomorrow again
  • It's raining tonight...
  • I still have orders for Chocolate Cornflakes and my Famous Amos Cookies
  • I made a new friend at work, well via email that is, Mr Mei ( i know that he might be reading this, so hi Mei!!!! =D)
  • For breakfast, i ate porridge with cut chilli, lime and soya sauce on the side.
  • My sister called me weird for doing the above. And yes, i do admit i am weird. I'm proud and happy to be weird, otherwise i won't be me... heheheh =P
Okie peeps... i think that should be it for now... bubyez... Muahz <33
