Tattoo

Just yesterday I have this random thought of getting a tattoo just for the thrill of it. Especially from a person like me who suffers from agliophobia (fear of pain), getting a tattoo is a BIG thing to me. Okay, I might exaggerate too much, maybe just a slight agliophobia. Remember me telling you that it scares the shit outta me when I was going to get TWO freaking jabs for my allergy? This clearly shows that, ME getting a TATTOO is impossible.. I just can't... just can't do it to stand needles poking through your skin, and the pain of course. So, I was quite anxious about it and started chatting with Lydia about her experience in getting her first tattoo, and she tried to convince me countless times that it doesn't hurt that much, it's bearable. Sounds cool~ I shall ignore the pain then. It was fun discussing which part of the body should we do our tattoo, and what design should we do.







Initially I thought of doing butterfly or hearts, but Lydia said hearts is overrated plus the fact that I am not that innocent after all. Ish.. So, I went and find something more.....



ahhh.. yes.. super cool and nice right? It's just that I do not want anything bloody bloody to be tattooed on my flesh. I want a clean and pure one ;) Lydia said maybe I should redrew this pictue and just omit the blood, sounds like a good idea. Then later on, Lydia got excited with this tattoo design she found and she said " You are gonna like it!!!! "


TADA!! Isn't it soooooooooooo sooooooooo cute??!!! It's like superlicious cute lor! A smiley face with two lil hearts down there. Lydia said it suits me cause I have this cartoon-ish face. Hahaha! Oh well, I still yet to decide whether I wanna get one for myself, you know, the thrill and the fact that it's like a big challenge to me, however deep down I'm actually scared plus tattoo is permenant. So, I have to really think twice... oh no.. maybe three to ten times whether I'm ready for this. What if my parents find out?? Does having a tattoo makes you look "bad" or "naughty"?? What will people think if i get a tattoo?? Let me think... I just need more time to think.
p/s: that smiley heart tattoo is seriously superlicious-the-cute lor!!!! Lydia, go get one!! :p

Wedding Bells @ Sg Petani

I've yet to update you guys on my trip up to Sg. Petani, Kedah for my eldest brother's wedding dinner which was held approximately 2weeks ago. So here it is, the post on the entire trip up north. =) I'll do a quick one since I'm actually kinda lazy to write everything in detail... so.. I'll just skip the "uninteresting" ones okay? Food lovers, make sure you fill your empty stomach by now or else you'll be drooling with the pictures of food I'm gonna post right here. Don't say I didn't warn you *wink*

Basically, I went up to KL on Thursday evening, stayed one night and headed up to Penang on Friday morning. Oh well, skipping two hours of E-Commerce class is nothing to regret of. Come on, how could anyone actually bear to listen to Tan Khong Sin for two freaking hours!! Especially with his cina accent where he pronounced Amazon.com and toyota.com.my as "AH-MAH-SON.com" and "TOH-YO-TA-TOT-COM-TOT-MY".. puhleaseeeee~ shoot me!!! Still, he is there to insult one of the students in his tutorial class for not being able to converse well in english.. look who's talking. Oops, wrong story... alright, back to the trip.

So, our first stop was at Ipoh where we get to enjoy the finest dim sum in Malaysia... yum yum~ Every bite of their siu mai, makes you ask for more... the prawns in their har gao, is sooo much bigger than in Melaka.... eating their egg tarts is like heaven!!!! Yummilicious~ Sorry, no pictures of the food because I was busy stuffing myself with dim sums. =p Just if you happen to drop by Ipoh, go hunt for this shop (points to the picture below). =D


What is breakfast without a nice hot and smooth tau fu fah right? My uncle said it is the best tau fu fah in town, so it is a MUST TRY. Very true indeed, it is very very smooth and sweet~ words just can't describe...
AHA! caught in act.. that was my second bowl =p
and so they did say that Ipoh is a food paradise where the food there are extremely nice and tasty. Who can forget their infamous salted chicken?!

As for me, I got tired waiting for them so I did some camwhoring =p I am just into stuff that is rather pictureque, even if it is just a red and white wall. Hahaha.



After that we travelled again.... tut tut tut tut.....cling cling cling... voom voom voom... and TADA! Finally we had reached Penang, just the brigde... just the bridge. Took us another hour to actually reach our apartment at Batu Feringgi. Fuh~ tiring day. Everyone took a rest and we went back down to Bukit Tambun for seafood!!! weeee!!


Now here's the part which I wanted to complain sooooo much!!! You see the picture up there? I mean the food in the pictures.. They are serial killers! They almost suffocated me to death! Fine, nevermind... they were being cruel to me by giving me rashes and stomach upset for hours. The worst part was I feel like vomitting but I just can't. In the end, they decided to give me a botox to add it all. "THANKS TO YOU!!!" - in short, I just got a major allergy due to one of the seafood I consumed and burnt a hole of my mum's wallet. Yea.. RM239 for two jabs!! Tried buying lottery with the number 2390 but it came out 2936... dang.

Finally, my brother's wedding dinner night. Everyone is dolled up and I only had one hour to get dressed up due to time constraint. Guess I shall let the pictures do the talking now~










I must say wedding dinner in Sg. Petani is rather different than in Melaka. The guests were punctual, there were no alcohol in that dinner, no table to table toasting, there was no dancing, and most of all the dinner ended at 9.30pm! wow!!! But, they have something extra we don't. They hired clowns to entertain the childrens... good idea ;)
Sunday morning, all of us headed back south from penang and stopped by somewhere near Kampar to have our lunch.

So shy~ I never seen any petrol station like that before so I took a picture with it as memory. Lol. =p

Welcome to Warong Mak Teh where they supposingly serve the best Mee Banjir Udang.

Well, nothing really special about the mee udang here except their prawns are REALLY huge. When I say really huge, I really mean it!

Unfortunately for me. I just recovered from my allergy so my dad banned me from taking any seafood at that moment. So as everyone enjoys their Mee Udang Banjir, I just have to settle with Mee TELUR Banjir.. sobs sobs.. how sad =(

Right after Mee Udang Banjir, we drove all the way down to Kampar for second round. Curry in Bread!! hmmm.. if that's what it is called. Hahahaha. It was pouring cats and dogs at that time, so we did a lil shopping along that row of shops to buy biscuits and jeruk. Later, back to KL and had our third eating session again. Yes!! It is sort of a food road trip to me, just eat, eat, eat, and eat! In the end, I gonna spend my time jogging just to burn the fats away. sigh~ Well, nothing is better than food aight ;)




That's the end of my road trip up north. The following weekends will involve lotsa eating too. Next Saturday, granduncle's 70th birthday at Equatorial Hotel. The following Saturday is officially my eldest brother's wedding dinner at Equatorial Hotel also. More shark fin soup for me... weeee!!!!! I'm signing off~

Teardrops on My Guitar

"Teardrops On My Guitar"





Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see
That I want and I'm needing everything that we should be
I'll bet she's beautiful, that girl he talks about
And she's got everything that I have to live without

Drew talks to me, I laugh cause it's just so funny
That I can't even see anyone when he's with me
He says he's so in love, he's finally got it right,
I wonder if he knows he's all I think about at night


[Chorus:]He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
Drew walks by me, can he tell that I can't breathe?

And there he goes, so perfectly,
The kind of flawless I wish I could be
She'd better hold him tight, give him all her love
Look in those beautiful eyes and know she's lucky cause


[Repeat Chorus]
So I drive home alone, as I turn out the light
I'll put his picture down and maybe
Get some sleep tonight


He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
He's the time taken up, but there's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into..

Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see.

Compass.

I feel something is not right about me lately, call me a paranoiac if you want and no; I'm not suffering from any serious illness i.e cancer or anything that leads to death (although I did complained about chest pain recently). It is just that I suddenly feel as though I am starting to lose my grounds to a point that I need to question myself who is this person in me. Do I really know who she is? Again, I can't find anymore roads in front of me, I'm lost... I'm just lost of directions. My situation now is similar to walking down narrow small paths searching for a sign to lead me to the road that I am supposed to go, but to no avail, I still fail to find it.

Time flies. In just a blink of eye I am graduating in another three months time, how fast can that be? Question - Am I prepared for the corporate world? I would say no. I have lots of doubt. I doubt my capabilities, intelligence and confidence, and I definitely don't see myself working hand in hand with CEOs in MNCs. Perhaps enrolled in business management wasn't the right choice for me and I knew this will happen one day. What's my direction? Where will I head after I graduate? Ha Ha Ha.. I have no clue at all. I seem to be aimless and people who is aimless will never succeed in anything. What is worse is the fact that I do not know what I want to be, what I want to achieve, what I want in life. I am not hoping to live in luxurious life, having a very bright career, earning 20-3ok per month and working my ass off till dawn. I just want to lead a normal life.. something simple but with purpose. Sigh~ What is life without a purpose... it leads to emptiness.

p/s: emo-ing.

Productive Day

I must say today has been a productive day to me. Despite waking up every two hours last night yet not feeling lethargic can be considered as a miracle. Surprisingly I was able to concentrate in Treasury Management class today with the fact that my mind did wandered around for a moment.

As usual, Lydia and I had our routine pool session but this time we played at Senyum instead as we can't wait for Jetty Pool to open at 3.30pm. Senyum pool sucks? Yeap, we know and eventually we were fully prepared for it. Gosh who will know that it turned out to be my worst pool session I had ever played in my entire life! The yellow ball has a crack on it, the table isn't smooth, the cue ball is jinx because it moves more than we expected so on and so forth. I wasn't in the mood to play any longer, so in the end we headed to Jetty Pool to have our proper game. I'm blessed that Jetty has good pool tables. Enough of my rants about pool because I know many of you got sicked reading about it.

My mood is good today =) Everything seems to go perfectly and I has been smiling since pool at Jetty. Also due to my good mood, I went for a jog at campus today too. Jogging at night is very different from evening. Firstly, it is because you don't have sun at night, we have moon. Secondly, it is cold and chilly at night where as you sweat like a pig in the evening. Thirdly, not many people jog at night so you don't feel shy or intimidated by others. =) Most of all, you feel relax jogging at night as you enjoy the breeze and starry night.

Now, if only I can have a deep sleep or sweet dream tonight, then I shall conclude that my day today is a marvelous one! =D No more waking up every two hours.. thank you! Guess it is ideal for me to go to bed by 1am tonight, tomorrow class will not be an interesting one. =(

=(

Adelene is in a melancholy mood right now.
