Christmas wedding!

That's right. My aunt's wedding is finally over. Having a wedding on a festival day is quite different in a way. On 24th, which was christmas eve, was the wedding ceremony. It was a very hactic day! With such a busy day, can you believe i even had time to exercise??? Not really. I had to walk up and down the stairs just to helped out. I seriously didn't remember a wedding that tiring! When the groom side finally arrived, i was stuck in my aunt's room with the bride and my sis(who was her bridesmaid). I see no excuse why i need to be in the room with my aunt but i guess it's good to help keep my aunt calm at that time.
Like every traditional chinese weddings, there are rules and tricks you can play on the groom's side. What trick did they play on the guys??? You'll never guessed it! Diapers! The guys had to wear diapers and suck pacifires like a baby. Thats not all. They had to eat durians and the pacifires are dipped in curry or chili! It must have been one funny scene!
The ceremony continued at the groom's house. After such a long, tiring day, i still have to clean up my grandparents house later. The day ended with a terrible migraine.
On 25th was the wedding dinner. That's when i get to dress up and everything. The dinner was not bad. Not to mention, it wasn't as tiring as the day before. Everything when well.
It was sure a memory i'll remember forever...

Try and try again...

Today was a "getting down and dirty" day. I spring clean my room and closet. I took out all the old, unwanted clothes to donate it away. No thanks to my big sis, i have to clean her share too. She told me that she didn't want the old clothes anymore so, me as the poor little sis have to clean it up for her.
I also did some baking today. I wasn't any good at it but i enjoy the process of baking something. I baked brownie muffins. For 25 minutes, i waited... Finally it was ready. When i took out from the oven, it looked alright and surprisingly taste alright. But(there's always a "but") the bad news? It stick to the muffin cup. I guess i have to eat the paper as well...

I wanted to give some muffin to my aunt since her wedding is coming up(as a wedding present from me to her). Unfortunately, faith has it's own idea. The muffin was a total disaster, i must say. I felt really dissapointed. Not because it turn out that way, it's because i had this whole idea of presenting it to someone. Now i can't. Oh well... An advise so common, "Never to give up."

And so, i will not. I'll try and try again but i think i'll put baking cakes and muffins aside for awhile. For now it'll just be baking cookies(which are way easier to make)!

A taste of the college life

Well, it was the usual Sunday morning routine except i had to wake up a little bit earlier. My parents had a plan on going to the Segi College open day. And so we did. We almost got lost going there. The campus was so deep inside Kota Damansara. We search high and low for it. There were no signboards nor any directions. So it was easy to get lost in such a remote area if you're not very familiar. We found the campus eventually.
I've been through the whole "open day college" thing before. But before it was my sister, now it's me. I was pretty nervous. In the morning, i prepared a list of questions to ask and when i was sitting next to the consultant, it's like i experience a brain wash or something cause i didn't remember a single question! I just nod to whatever she said and let my mom and dad do the asking. We got a private tour around the campus by a charming, young guy that also studies there. The surrounding was not well develope yet cause it's a new campus. Anyway, i have to think long and hard whether to study there and whether i want to study what i had in mind. Going to college is more difficult than i thought!
I got a free movie ticket to watch Golden Compass but i heard that it's not a very nice movie but i'm gonna watch it no matter what.
Good news for me, i got a new dress! No big deal but i like the dress. Can't wait to put it on at my aunt's wedding day.
More about my life coming soon...
Bye for now~

Home Alone

I thought after the exams i could party, party, party. But unfortunately, i end up staying at home like i used to. As boring as it sounds, i've been staying home thinking of everything, from college to working, from shopping to sleeping(???)... You name it!
I had one horrible day this week, that is my lovely dress wasn't as lovely as it is! Well, here's the thing, my dad send both my dress and my mom's to the dobby. The bad news is, the dobby guy said my dress cannot be washed as the black can stain the white surface of my dress. I was disappointed but the worse has not come. When i went back home from dinner, i took out my dress and i saw a black stain on the dress!!! I wanted to cry and scream. I asked my dad what happen and he said the dobby guy must have tested it and accidentally stain it. I wanted to strangle both my dad and that dobby guy! My mom said she'll get another dress for me but until now, no sound from her. She must have forgotten all about it! So i'll just go to my aunt's wedding naked!
My aunt's wedding is just around the corner and i'm excited for her! My school prom is on this coming Saturday! I'm not going cause i'm not allowed. Long story. Prom is the time where you can dress up and be pretty but since i'm not going, i take this wedding as the time for me to dress up and be pretty instead! Moreover, it's not everyday you have a close relative getting married.
I hope i get to go shopping soon and get a dress, fast!
Bye for now~

Shop till I drop!

I'm not kidding when i say i shopped till i drop. I did! I woke up at 8.30am, ate breakfast and went out. When going out with my parents, they have the tendency to go to a place very early so that they can get a nice parking lot! And so we did, right in front of the elevator. My mom was looking for a pair of shoe and i was looking for accessories for my dress. Meanwhile, my dad was looking for a coat. A tux or a suit. Whatever you call it, it's for my aunt's upcoming wedding. I see no reason why my dad need to wear a suit! But my mom insist that my dad should! So who am i to voice out? Anyway, we walk around 1 Utama till my legs now hurt.
Fortunately, the shopping trip is not over. We might continue it tomorrow! (L.O.L)
I'll jot down my day trip here tomorrow. Till then, i need a foot massage!
Ciou for now~

Karaoke? Window-shopping?

I'm no longer a highschool student. I am now a seventeen year old trying to get a part-time job and at the same time waiting for results. Yesterday was a day out with my friends. It was meant to be a class gathering/outing/get-together. They decided to go karaoke to spend the remaining class-fund and guess what, we still had to pay another RM18! Of course i did not agree. Being broke and everything, do u seriously think i had RM18 in my wallet? Even if i did, i would spend that money on something i was yerning for instead! "They" were saying RM18 is very little and this and that. I understand that their daily allowence is about RM 50 or more but i am not like them! I consider myself lucky and fortunate even though my allowence is only RM3 daily. But "they" don't seem to look that way. Nevermind that already. All i can say is, i did not go for the karaoke and so did my best buds(except for chung). Lucky for them, my day did not turn any sour or boring. I had fun even though there wasn't any music or singing. We had fun just being crazy and silly! That's what i like about being with them, i don't need to pretend to be anyone else but myself.
So, that proves that i don't need high-paid allowence, rich friends, and everyhing else to have fun! All i need is some crazy people around me and everything will be as fun as a Hollywood A-List party. We(me, mun, yee) snap a lot of pictures and when window-shopping. I was the only one who did not buy anything. Both yee and mun bought something for themselves but me being broke, did not buy anything. I did saw what i wanted but it was way out of my budget! I'll need to bring my mom instead. As much as i love going out with my parents, i also enjoy having some freedom with my friends. As long as i don't betray that freedom, i'll do alright. It'll be one long holiday but for what i have experienced, time passes like nobody's business. So wish me luck and to all bloggers out there too!
Ciou for now~

Shopping is a paradise

Though exam is still not over, my parents took me out, shopping! I bought New Year clothes and my mom too bought some really cute tops(that i surely be borrowing). We shop at a new shopping complex in Klang. They said it has the biggest Jusco in Malaysia. To me, Jusco was big but the whole complex is not to say that big. Preferable 1 Utama. It was a nice day except the people i past by was so rude! One lady that was walking beside me shouted at my ear because she was calling her daughter from the other side. She was about 2 inches away from my ears! I don't even want to mention how many people banged on me. Either i'm to tiny to be notice or they are just blind! I was furious! But of course i did not let that spoil my day.
Today, my dad's birthday. Both my parents took leave to celebrate. We went to Mid Valley. I didn't had much fun because I had this stupid migraine and also PMS. But i tried to act as if i'm enjoying myself. Which i did. Just not in the joyful way. My dad too didn't seem to be enjoying himself. Me and my mom was looking at clothes and shoes and bags and my dad just tag along. I felt bad. I told myself i'm not going to look at anymore clothes but bad enough, I pass by Miss Selfridge and i just got to go in! It was suppose to be my dad's special day and should be doing what he wanted to do. I feel guilty! After a long day, we finally reach home with empty hands. Sad!
