Haha just realized I was so vain the other day when I put on my glasses.

And then it occured to me that I haven't taken any pics with them in a long while...




and then this happened swt.

I KNOWWW, so scary right!!

I camwhored for like 10 minutes there and had to stop myself if not I would have missed the bus hahaha.

I don't know what is it with me and photos. Even now when I look at my iphone apps majority of them are photo apps hahah wtf.




I even bling-ified it with another app hahahahah. VAIN.

I guess now is the prime time for me to camwhore until one fine day I feel that I'm too old for it lol.

Seriously, being young gives you the excuse to do vain stuffs like this. Imagine if a 40 year old auntie did this, that'll probably be quite disturbing.



Not gonna let the age get to me now! Imma cam whore away and be happy! :D



You only get to be young once you know.

曾经向往的幸福

那一年她爱上了他，她是一个优雅而漂亮女人，而他是个一无所有且懒惰的男人

朋友都不看好他们父母也说她这是用自己的幸福在赌。

交往后，他像变了个人似的奋发上进，若干年后他有了自己的事业和魅力，

她问他:你当年怎么会突然像变了个人一样，


他回答：你用一生幸福做赌注，我怎么舍得让你输。

Another trip up north

And so...we decided that we wanted more of the north coast so this weekend we loitered around the Westfield mall in Northlakes.

Going to the mall only means one thing in my dictionary =)

Even though I always refer to what I do as "damage" but honestly, I've never been able to buy so many gorgeous stuff at such low cost.

Shopping back home will never bring me the same satisfaction anymore, le sigh.





what I wore on that day. Super love this dress because of the back-design xD
and it's made of thin and comfy material, perfect for the weather now.



the 2 new additions to my wardrobe *heart*




Went to Woodypoint to catch the sunset after that =)





I has a housemate with good photography skills *glee*


Counting down the days till the real holidays come :(

you made me smile

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







Don't worry I am not being emo. Just downloaded a new app on iPhone that does wonder to photo editing.



Add in a few words of emo song lyrics and voila!



Emo-ness you have :D

my favourite beanie at the moment :D

three more days and my parents will be here!

it feels so weird. for half a year I've been seeing them on the screen and now I'm wondering what it's like to see and hold them in flesh again.

This is what long distance does to you :(


and I'm at a stage where I'm trying to finalize which new blog name to use. There were a few good suggestions thanks to my ever lovely and creative friends ;)

1. purplehearts
2. fragilesnippets
3. purplepillow
4. fragilethoughts

If you notice there's a theme around here, one is my favourite colour and another one is the nick I used to go by :)


I'll probably change to the new one next month. Till then drop me a message if you happen to have any ideas! Thank you *mwaahh*

my friend told me to look up to the sky and make a wish...

and so i did.


i wish that things would become better.

i wish that no one else would have to cry because of me.

i wish that we would all learn to love again.


and my last wish shall be a secret between me and the blue blue sky =)




have you looked up to the sky lately?

my super cool taxi driver

Thursday, June 18, 2009

9:59 PM | 6 Comments

i didn't pay much attention to him as i was getting into the cab.

crisp black shirt. malay. that's all that registered.

as the taxi started moving, i passed him my ticket and mumbled "PJ" as i continued to talk into my phone.

10 minutes later, i hung up and looked to the front.

130 km/ph 0_o

then he turned around and asked me in PERFECT CHINESE:

"ni zhu na li?" (where do you stay?)

me: "YOU SPEAK CHINESE??"

him: "wo hui jiang hua yu" (i can speak chinese)

me: *obviously embarassed* "erm...ss2"

him: "kao jin taman bahagia lrt ma?" (is it near tmn bahagia's lrt station?)

me: "fu jin. wo direct ni" (it's near. i'll direct you)

and then both of us fell into silence again.

he looked young, now that i observed closely. can't be past 26.

the taxi looked like it was modified. the meter board was different from a normal waja's and there was a long metal chain hanging on his rearview mirror.
hooked on the chain was a very stylo-mylo white-rimmed sunnies.

at that point we reached the toll. i plucked up my courage and asked him the stupidest question:

"are you chinese?"

again, he replied me in perfect chinese:

"wo shi ma lai zai" (i am a malay boy)

i laughed.

because it sounded so funny!

and then he started laughing too and explained to me that he studied chinese when he was in primary.

me: *SUPER IMPRESSED* "your chinese is good!"

him: "i practice whenever i can with my chinese customers."

and we started chatting, all the way with his simple, yet perfect chinese.

me: "you look young, how old are you?"

him: "i'm 23"

WTH? he's the same age as me!?

him: "born in the year of 86 la"

me: "you're the same age as me!!"

him "oh you can be my girlfriend!"

....

him: "ok, just kidding"

LOL.

and then we started talking about his life as a taxi driver.

me: *points at meter*
"that's fast you know."

him: "normal speed la. everyone who drives an airport limo has gotten into an accident before!"

SWT.

me: "are you serious?"

him: "i just had 2 accidents today!"

OMG.

me: "WHERE?"

him: "one on the highway and one in PD. the motorcyclist in PD flew from his bike LOL!"

me: "aren't you suppose to be scared?" =.="

him:" scared la. send him go hospital, didn't die."

me: "Oh."

and then he told me that he jinxed his meter so that it's 20 km/ph slower than the actual speed.

THAT MEANS HE WAS GOING FREAKING 150 KM/PH NOW!!

and. he's. YAWNING.

wtf wtf wtf.


me: "are you sleepy?"

him: "haven't slept in 24 hours."

ZOMG.

me: "WHY DON'T YOU SLEEP!?"

him: "no time la. need to get customers."

i prayed so hard that he won't nod off T____T

me: "you're so young, why are you a taxi driver?"

him: "i've tried everything la, didn't like it."

me: "what did you study in college?"

him:"diploma in business admin"

me: "you have a diploma and you're a taxi driver?"

him: "i CAN'T STAND office work! and i did sales too, didn't work"

me: "so what you planning to do once you earn enough here?"

him: "open my own travel agency ahaha"


that's when i felt so much respect for him.

here's a guy from a small town with a diploma trying his best to live his dreams in a big city by working his ass off day and night without even once giving up or going astray like all those mat rempits.

and here we have degree holders too pampered to work and leeching off their parents, poor people who blame the rich and rob them, college/university graduates who are too proud to take on jobs they deem low and insignificant.

he reminded me of what's it like to chase after your dreams.

me: "eh, you want branded coffee?"

him: "WHAT?"

me: "STARBUCKS COFFEE. FOR FREE."

him: *eyes widened* "want want want"

i rummaged through my bag and opened my notebook.

there was a starbucks voucher slipped inside on the first page, i took it out and waved it at him.

me: "GO DRINK YOUR COFFEE. don't bang anyone already okay?"

him: "haha okay."

and with that i hopped off and strolled back into the arms of my welcoming house.


i think i learn more from talking to random strangers than from work...no?

i'm starting to miss my blackberry days... when every customer came in with a different story.

i am so not cut out for office work :(
sigh.

a random conversation

Thursday, April 9, 2009

11:17 PM | 5 Comments

i've been trying to put off blogging for quite a while because it scares me everytime i open my photos folder and see like 1000++ photos and i don't know which one to upload and where to start T___T

but now that it's raining outside, it reminded me of an entry that i actually wrote on a rainy night in Sydney.



- 8 March 2009 -


it was drizzling when we decided to head out.

we were cruising down the roads of Sydney's city slowly, the amount of rain fluctuated now and then with every few blocks.

soon, it turned into a downpour.

what a night to visit the harbour bridge.

after we parked, ju came out with the brilliant idea to use the car shade as an umbrella. the moment we jumped out of the car, both of us held on to the sides of the shade and hurried down the steps to the nearest restaurant that overlooked the harbour.
with the huge shade opened above our heads, it looked as if we were parasailing...on ground.

the place ju chose was perfect. with only the restaurant upstairs operating, the spot where we decided to dock was closed and empty.

the shade we used was left on the table to dry while we were busy trying to snap pictures of the ghostly looking opera house and harbour bridge. by now the rain was so heavy it created a silverish silhouette around both buildings.

things looked so different at night. i was used to seeing postcards and visiting these places during the day that i had no idea it would look so captivating at night. ju said it lookes even more so because of the heavy rain.

the best shots i got with my cacat-ed camera during the rain.


the wind at the harbour was blowing so fiercely we were both splattered with rain. it was impossible to walk back to the car. there was a point where the wind blew so strongly that the shade escaped both our grips... and smacked ju squarely in the face.

i was still babbling on when i abruptly realized that ju's face was momentarily replaced with a car shade.

poor ju ju.

as we sat there and chatted, a friendly old guard came to check on us. he knew that we were stuck there because of the rain and allowed us to stay on until the storm blew over.

guard: "Not locals aren't you? Where are you from?"

me: "Malaysia! Have you been there?"

guard: "No no, not much travellin. What is it like?"

me: "It's a tropical country, not as cold as aussie"

ju: "She's not used to the weather here, and it's raining."

guard: " LOL! are you very cold??"

by now it felt like i was stuck in a freezer and every gust of wind stung my skin.

me: " It's cold. VERY." *shivers*

guard:" Aahhh...I know why.

huh?

it's because your boyfriend is far away from you."

and with that, he chuckled and continued his rounds.


what a heart-wrenching way to put it.


i like random conversations with random people. it gives you a whole new perspective sometimes.

i am feeling empty.

and i think i will be, for quite a while.

how to fight a crocodile

Thursday, February 5, 2009

7:26 AM | 5 Comments

i looooove conversations like this because they will always lead to the most bizzare answers.

we were having a little gathering today in 1u's Seoul Garden when suddenly someone mentioned about sharks in Australia and we started investigating how to fight for your life if it attacked you.

the answer was simple,

jab the eye.

hello?? the fella so thick skin how to fight??! the eye is the most vulnerable spot right?

jason: *happily* so if you're being chased by a shark you faster poke the eye right??

me: NO. if it's CHASING you YOU RUN!! jab only when it catches you! =___=

kelvyn: then what about crocodiles? you jab the eye too?

jason and i: YA. same ma! another thick skin fella.

kelvyn: what if it closes it's eyes and bite you???



dot dot dot.




YA HOR.



bryan: then the crocodile very clever lor.

jason: must have did research before it attacked. all the friends kena poke eye ball HAHA.


WTH.


bryan: what if it bites your arm?? how to poke??

kelvyn: USE YOUR FEET.


OMG.


jason: can meh??

kelvyn: make sure you wear sandals so can use your toes ma.


ZOMG.


me: but don't they usually attack your lower torso first? crocodiles not very tall creatures leh.

bryan: what if your hand and feet also can't use???

jason: that only leaves you with the head right??


SUDDENLY... everyone became quiet and started to formulate an answer.



kelvyn: ... you lick the eye balls.




*STUNNED*




.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.

LICK THE EYE BALLS?????????




LIKE WTH??????????? ^%$&#@!**(~!$%%%??


that. sounds. SO. WRONG.


jason: OMG.

kelvyn: then the crocodile will think you want to eat him.

bryan: then it will faster run from you right HAHA.



i think the poor crocodile would be traumatized.

suffast

Friday, April 7, 2006

11:46 PM | 6 Comments

this is a long long story on my 1st ever "suffast"

it all started when kor kor suddenly walked into the kitchen 1 night and proclaimed that:
"DENGKIL CHICKEN RICE IS THE BEST!"

we all stared at him, puzzled.
not all chicken rice the same meh?
and so we started our journey in search of the dengkil chicken rice.

it was all well-planned where kor and i would sneak out to james place and then head over to dengkil together.
why must we sneak out you say?
the 1st time when we excitedly told dad and mom about our chicken rice journey,
mom pointed at me and said:

"you go out in the middle of the night manggali will rape you."

i was stunned.

then daddy pointed at kor kor and said:

"you go out in the middle of the night manggali will rob you."

double stunned.

and then we both got grounded for the night.

super potong steam.

but we never gave up.
2 days ago kor sms-ed me and said:

"we got 2 new comrades! it's time to embark on our chicken rice journey!"

and so at midnight kor crept into my room and woke me up and i quietly followed him out.

we were discussing in his room when SUDDENLY...

"WHERE YOU 2 GOING AHHH?"

po po found out about us.
oh shit.

"we go james house to play ma" explained kor. (which is the truth oso)

"WHY GO SO LATE AHHH? SO LATE VERY DANGEROUS %^#*&@(@*@&@%@%^@&@*@(@"

and so she started on manggali theory again.

but kor and i stood firm and insisted to go to james's place. then po po got angry,

"I DUN CARE LAH!" she said, and started waving her hands in the air and stomped back into her room.

quickly, kor and i tip-toed down the stairs and fumbled with the keys cause it was dark.
then we noticed that some1 else had found out about us.
standing high on the stairs with her eyes boring into us,
we knew we were in deep shit.
slowly, she descended from the stairs and strolled towards us...
kor and i stood there stiffly, afraid that she might just wake all the others and get us into super deep shit.

as she appraoched us she stopped......and licked us.
her tail-wagging excitedly hoping that we would take her along with us.
silly dog.

i had to sayang her hoping that she won't bark and give us away while kor opened the doors. once we were out we quickly headed to the gate and as my bro was about to press the button to open the gate i stopped him.

"they'll hear the gate lah"

"ya hor. then how?"

"let's climb"

"i no problem. u can or not?"

i was confident,

"can"

then kor pulled himself onto the fence that seperated us from our neighbour and started to inch towards the pillar so that he can climb over it and reach the other side. everything was going well when SUDDENLY...
the slab of rock on the pillar that my bro had 1 foot on started to TILT.

silence.

kor turned around, looked at the gate, then looked at me, and whispered:

"know what? let's use the gate."

i nodded in agreement.

so kor climbed down from the fence and we opened the gate and dashed into the car. all the while there were 2 malays sitting outside their house opposite us staring at us in awe.
they must be thinking that we're 2 siao kias.

anyway we drove over to james's place which was only less than 30 seconds walk away and his gf - kelly opened the door for us.

there, we decided it was still early cause the shop only opens at 4 a.m so we hung around and played poker.
i placed my biggest bet ever there- 50 million.
walau eh, how many times in life can you actually bet like that?
SUPER SYOK.
of course, everything is possible with monopoly currency hehe.

i was winning when we checked on the time and decided that it was time to leave.
and so at 3.30 a.m we left pj and started our long journey towards dengkil.

then there was a sign.
every body chant "chicken rice! chicken rice! chicken rice!"

down the winding paths and super straight highways, we finally reached our final destination - dengkil.
when we reached the boss was just opening his stall so our timing was perfect!

so hungry....

and then food came!!

Image hosting by Photobucket

the famous dengkil chicken rice and zhu tou pi (literally, pig head skin)with cups of hot milos. YUM YUM! *drool*

we get to choose which part of the chicken we wanted (damn syok), and when he took out the chicken you could see that it was still steaming.
the secret of success = fresh!

we were happily eating and yakking away. the chicken's super delicious and i love the quiet atmosphere of the place. while we were eating, in came a mommy cat and her baby kitten roaming around seaching for food. they kept us company while we were there :)

after filling our tummys, we decided to head home to our darling beds.
we paid for our food and it was super cheap! a plate of chicken rice plus hot milo only 4 bucks leh.

"on your left you see the balai bomba"
"on your right is the MMU campus"
"people, we are now heading to dengkil"
