ps : i heart you ♥

Hey hey!

I am back in my own room already... As usual, the usual thing I would say is that I am missing the noisiness of having the boyfie around. My room will always feel quiet after spending the days and nights with him for the past week. But but brightside, I'll be seeing him very soon! XD

After being back home in Malaysia and after spending the past week with the boyfriend, coming back home to my own space seems rather quiet. Yes altho aunty D and J is around in the house but it just feels different. There isn't someone to keep up with my craziness and talkativeness at any time of the day. Mum isn't here for me to suddenly shout out "I am hungry...!" and we will either go out to tapao food or mum will cook supper for us. And the boyfriend isn't around for me to keep him company till 8am in the morning(like yesterday morning) or for any other purpose like watching a movie together or me watching him game and ask him about gaming terms and just simply annoy him or preparing a meal or ovening food at 4 in the morning.

I do admit we are one of those crazy two people that stays up till 8am, eat crazy a lot of food at one go, annoy each other to the max and laugh crazy hard about it afterwards. All the crazy little things makes memories. Great memories. I may not be able to to list every single one of them but in my heart, I know, we made great memories together. And I think that should be all that mattered.

Memories that I'll look back years on from now knowing that I was once at a special place and a special time. It is said that "The best portion of your life will be the small, nameless moments you spend smiling with someone who matters to you." And I couldn't agree more!

My uni semester has just begun again and I am dreading every day of it. Simply because this will be my toughest semester thus far. With the final year projects and crazy micro controller programmings and digital signal and image processing, it is enough to kill me. And shake me to my core. I am already freaking out at my first day of this new semester. God, please give me strength to go through this tough phase. Thank you.

And since I did promise some updates of My Winter Holidays @ Home, here I am! I'll be writing about what happened in the last five days before I left back for Melbourne.

First up, Japanese dinner with Ferng Lin and Kah Tim. And it was Tim's treat :) So kind of him because we were equally or in fact more kind to him HAHAHA! *When I do start earning some money, I have to remember to treat all of these great people I have in my life! They have been such nice people towards me and when I am capable of it, I'll definitely reciprocate! To be the better friend! I always feel so bad for just accepting and not giving... ): SOOOOONNN peeps! Soon!*

Dinner was at Xenri D'River View @ Wisma Elken on Old Klang Road.

And I ordered their 6 course Japanese meal or more known as Kaiseki which means multi-course traditional meal in Japanese. And this very quaint traditional course dinner costs RM69.










After dinner, we adjourn back to my house for "keng kai" session till about 1 something in the morning. It was a good night! Considering that I was leaving back to Melbourne in the next couple of days, it was a really good catchup night.

Number Two, potluck party slash Yao Yun's early surprise birthday mini celebration @ my house.

I had a last minute plan of wanting a potluck party. Firstly was because I thought of gathering all of the close friends together and meet up with all of them one shot before I came back and secondly was to have an early celebration with YY because I knew I was going to miss her birthday. At that point of time, I did not know I was still going to see her after this potluck party so I wanted to sort of have a mini celebration with her before I left. Usually every year I would somehow celebrate with her and this year shouldn't be any different. So yeaps! :D It was successful in a way because she didn't see the cake coming at all XD


Satay, Pizzas, Hokkien Mee, Sing Chao Mai, Sushi, Claypot Chicken Rice, KFC, Lasagna, Garlic Bread, Fruit Tarts and Blueberry Cheese Tarts, Fresh Fruits and Green Beans with Sago Tong Shui.

And we somehow managed to finish almost all of it! :D Andddddddd so glad my own cooked Claypot Chicken Rice was a hit! Everyone loved it!! WHEEEEEE :DDD


By the time everyone arrived it was already like 830pm or so. When I specifically said 730pm.. =.=' Malaysian timing..

And because Dickson and gf had to leave early, we decided to bring out the cake earlier for YY. When she just started digging into her KFCs. HEHEHE :P









They were at it with wines and beers for about two hours. Then Qihong had to leave at about 2am and that was already considered to be very late for him ok.. I have never seen him past midnight on a normal occasion before ok... HAHA! And then.., we did this..


After these two photos were taken, wei jun and ferns left for home after ferns had a short nap on my couch. Then Kit and Tim continued drinking wine and beer with my cousin till they were forbidden to go home because they drank too much. After two and a half bottles of wine and maybe about two or three bottles of beer, we didn't want them to drive home in that condition. We as in me and mum and cousin.

So..... Jack(who had already fell asleep from earlier on the recliner), kit and tim stayed in my living room for the night. So random and I felt so bad that they were pulled into a drinking session and they had to overnight at my place. But I hope they had fun? :D

Kit and tim slept at 330am and I had to wake them up at 8am cause kit had to go to work. Jack fetched kit home while tim just went back to sleep somemore. I seriously don't know how kit work for another 12 hours that day in such zombified condition man.. And it was partly my fault =X HEHE

Third event to mention about...., Yao Yun's surprise party on the early hours of her birthday! I went straight to her house after the Jay Chou concert. It was a last minute decision to go because initially I thought I couldn't attend because of the concert and all which was why I had an earlier celebration with her first. But turns out I could! So I had my cousin pick Tim up along the way and dropped the both of us at YY's house.

And guess what... I arrived about 1130pm knowing that YY is still out at dinner and we all waited till about 130am only she got home because KL decided to have strange traffic jams at ungodly hours and the time were skewed off abit.

It was somewhat successful because she had no idea at all. But when she got into the house in the dark, she peeked into the living room and there we all were standing in a row in the dark. And she said "HOLY SHIT!" and we went... SURPRISEEEEEEE!!! :D and then the birthday song came HAHA! It was a very funny moment. It was, at that moment.. I think it still is :)







50,000 pictures in a span of 6 months. OMG SO BRILLIANT RIGHT!
So amazing right?!!??!?!?!!! I am seriously waiting and waiting *trying hard to be patiently* for the day that I'll step foot into New York City!

I won't expect it to be the greatest and bestest city but I am just dying to witness this city for myself! I shall wait till the day I fulfil my dream... :)

The next time I am back, I should be talking about meeting Steph in the Land Down Under :D And my food expeditions since I got back :) Signing off now! Byeeeee peeps!

On the sidenote, Melbourne's weather was crazyyyyyy today! So freaking windy until trees and roofs were blown away. The crazy Melbourne weather... Nothing out of the ordinary but it's worth mentioning :D haha!

Much love,
shereena.

Hellos!

I've been back to Melbourne for a couple of days already and after settling down nicely at the boyfriend's, I figured I should probably post a couple of things about My Winter Holidays in Malaysia.

Slowly by slowly I hope I do get to some memorable events posts up. I can't possibly get into all of them all at once but I'll try :D Shall see whether my procrastination get to the best of me or not HEHE :P I way way freer now than I was in Malaysia for holidays but I am still as lazy. All I do now is disturb the boyfriend almost constantly and sleep and eat. That's it. The only difference is that my going out times in Malaysia is replaced by disturbing the boyfriend and spending time with him. HEHEHEHE

Hmmm on a side note, I just finished watching the latest episode of Triumph in the Skies II and in my mind all I could think of is to go to Europe and with people I love. I want to share all my happy times with them. To me, there isn't a better feeling in the world than traveling the world with the people you love. Nothing better than that.

Okok back to reality. Last Friday night, the night before I flew back here, I attended Jay Chou's concert with my cousin and his wife. And since then, I couldn't stop listening to his songs!! His playlist has been on repeat hehe :D

And the funny part is I used to think he is not attractive altho he plays the instruments really well and is seriously super duper talented. Even after my first Jay Chou concert in 2008, the only thing that changed was I loved his songs more and that he looked super yeng when he plays the piano but still never found him that attractive until Last Friday. After seeing his whole new look in person, suddenly, he looked so attractive and yeng at any time during the concert! Not only just when he plays the piano... When he socialize with the crowd, when he sings those super lam songs, when he plays the guitar and of course when he plays the piano! He even have like a washboard abs already leh... Even more yeng and attractive lor! Sound so superficial la me HEHEHEH :P

The first concert of his that I attended 5 years ago changed most of my impression on him and made me fell in love with his songs. But this second concert 5 days ago made me appreciate and feel every single word and melody of his songs even more!

Altho the sound of my first Jay Chou concert @ Stadium Negara sounded better due to it being an outdoor venue, this second one felt nicer to me. Minus it being super duper loud because the sounds are all contained in an indoor venue and that my ears were tired out by the end of it. It was still nonetheless, a great night! :)

I managed to sneak in my camera but only took pictures halfway through because the security people kept flashing their flashlight towards my direction thinking that I was recording the concert. But but, I did no recording at all! Just pictures! :D





*My most favourite part of the whole concert! The guitar medley of songs over the years. The mashup was so good!!*
*The second most favourite part of the concert. The songs he played with the piano!*
*The first song I've heard from Jay Chou when I was 10 years old, 开不了口. It was nice hearing it live after all these years!*
*The ending song, 陽光宅男. It was really fun jumping up and down to it at the end!*
It was a good night! :) A good pink night!
I can't believe how much of Jay Chou's picture is up on this post. HEHEHE But he is seriously damn talented lah!! He is the perfect person to quote "talent isn't based on looks" about!
Okla. I think I have expressed enough love towards Jay Chou already :P
Now, I shall go do whatever I can do and just enjoy the remaining days of my holidays. I officially start my new semester next Monday! I know it is way later than other Australian unis but oh well :DD   And ANDDD Stephanie is here in Melbourne for holidays! WHEEEEE happiness!!! I've waited so long for the day that she will come over and visit!!!!
Shall be back to update whenever I could! Byeeeeeee :D
Much love, shereena.
