Goodness. It's burning up here in Melbourne. I know I was complaining that it was hot in KL but it's bad here too! The worse part is that there are no clouds here! Aaaahhh...Oh well, at least it's cooler at night.
The flight back was fine since I slept most of the way. Slept through some parts of the first time I was watching The Spongebob Squarepants movie and totally slept through Finding Neverland. I so wanted to watch that but hey, sleep is more important eh?
Saw a few familiar faces on the same flight. Hey SL and KW...Cheer Beam was on the same flight as me and sat nearby!
You know what happened at the immigration at the airport in Melbourne? Somehow my passport could not be scanned so I had to go to this corner where there were a few other people with the same problem. That sorta scared me.
Yipee! I get Monday's off. I'd rather have Fridays off cos Yin and Felicia's off on Friday but oh well, can't complain since I have at least a day off. *In your face Amy!* heh, just kidding ok...
I'm sorta sleepy now. It was either the big lunch, the weather or the fact that I could hardly sleep last night. Nope, no napping for me. Waiting for Yin to get back so we can play baddy later!
Goodbye, bumming around. Hello, books. *groan*
Have a good week.

Chap Goh Mei
It's the last day of Chinese New Year. The 15-day celebration is over. Sigh, time really flies, doesn't it?
Heading back to Melbourne on friday. Having mixed feelings. The usual: happy but sad.
Aah, I'll get over it. I always do. After all, it's not the first time I'm going over.

"I shouldn't have worn this sandals."
Yes, mom. How right you were.
That's what she said on the way to church.
She didn't sit together with my bro and I cos she was on duty.
She came towards me with a sheepish smile.
"Look. It broke. Heh." *smile smile*
So guess with whom did she switched footwear with?!
AND before that she was commenting on how my sandals matched perfectly with what she was wearing.
My mom's friend who was sitting in front went, "Aiks. Poor thing. No extra shoe? You(meaning me) can wear? Aih. You've got big feet."
So yea, I TRIED to wear her sandals with the strap dangling from the right side which were TWO sizes too small for me.
Decided to go barefoot after that. Haih.
Whereas, mom was trying to walk properly with sandals that were two sizes to big for her.
My brother was of course snickering and laughing.
Moments later, we were going to sing a song and this was part of the song:
Someone slipped and fell
Was that someone you?
Ok, I know that they prob didn't mean it literally but it just had to appear at the right time. That made my brother laugh even harder.
"Shouldn't have said that your sandals matched my clothes. I think that caused my strap to break."
That's what she said after dinner.
Mind you, before this, the strap on the LEFT side broke but she got it fixed and now the other side had to go. So, she's dumping the sandals (i hope).
Dad even noticed that this was her 2nd time she's left with a broken strap.
I pity my toes. Within a week I've managed to hurt 3 of them. Woke up last Friday in Penang with something funny that had happened to my right lil toe. On Monday, scrapped it on the curb . Didn't even know it was bleeding till hours later on the way back my mom said "It's bleeding." There was a black patch. Yep, dried blood. And yesterday i banged my 2nd toe in the bathroom. Still find it weird that my 2nd toes are much longer than my big toes.
Msn is screwed up again. My brother just signed in. BUT he's bathing. BAH. doesn't matter anyway.
Oh, MISS AMY! what's this i hear bout you bringing 4 luggages back to Melb and also with your mom in tow?! WOMAN! tsk...you are so gonna get an earful from my alliance and I(not to mention everyone else...) if we find out that you brought useless stuff over. So erm, see you on saturday? AND you had better not be sleeping when we get back! We as in Syl, Yin and I, you blur pig.

Purplehyppo?
Came across something in my email today.
People from Australia, you remember the commercial by FoxFm that they show on tv and in the cinemas? The one with Kyle and Jackie O, Rove etc. dancing to "Superstar" by Jamelia?
Go to --->http://www.stud.ntnu.no/~alexann/
It's the exact same thing in the commercial!
PLUS. It's a purple hippo. Heh
I am baffled! *scratches head*

Nuttin'
I think i gave my grandma a fright just now.
Heh.
Not my fault.
I was just just behind her when i reached out my hand to ask her to give me her empty bowl.
Her reaction? She jerked and hung unto the bowl for dear live.
Guess I should stand right in front of my grandma and not reach out my hand from behind her from now on?
"J
Yep so my grandma(poh poh to be exact. did you know that everyone on each side of your parent's family has a title of their own?) came down from Penang with us. Yep i spent 4 "glorious" nights in Penang. That is if you can call spending days at the hot island with nothing much to do after you've visited all your relatives, glorious. Actually only left on Thursday. Had to postpone our trip by a day.
I actually have pictures. But I'm kinda lazy to post it up right now. Heh... Can't help it, the hot weather is making me lazy.
My brother has been messing around with my comp trying to make the infrared work. Think he messed up some of my settings. BAH. He held my comp hostage the whole afternoon. He was having fun watching Smallville episodes on MY comp in MY air-cond room. Meanwhile i was erm, watching tv downstairs with NO air-cond.
Don't you just hate it when you specifically told and explained to someone EXACTLY what you wanted and they just go ahead and do something else, even though they said they understood what you told them?

Happy Chinese New Year
There wasn't a long line of cars heading towards One Utama.
Not many people were in One Utama.
There wasn't much traffic on the road.
Don't tell me they are all in Penang.
Yipers, hope not.
I'm going there tomorrow (yes, again.)
Someone just sent me an sms to wish me. I have no idea how she got my number since she's really my parent's friend from church. Beats me.
I'm now pondering on whether to go for CNY mass tomorrow. It's at 8.30am. Should I or should I not? That is the question...
My apologies. I just had a heavy dinner. Nope, not due to reunion dinner or anything like that. Already ha a reunion lunch. We had dinner at Pizza Hut. We tried their new Gold Ring pizza or something that sounds like that. There's a ring of sweet potato and some sorta stuffed crust. It's quite nice, except that cheese is saltish and sweet potatoes are...sweet. so you will have a saltish and sweetish taste in your mouth.
Anywho...
I'd like to wish all of you, near and far, a blessed Happy Chinese New Year!
Gong Hei Fatt Choy!!!
May you all have a good(rooster) year ahead of you!
As Ryan Seacrest says, likewise:
Michelle, out!
p/s: don't mind that. I'm gonna miss two episodes of AI 4. Oh pooh...

Heh. My bro had his first(i think) accident today. nothing major. can hardly even see a scratch. he said the other person was a lady so not so bad. heh.
went to get my "face thingys". you know the err, toner and what not from the skin specialist. am only able to get that specific brand from the dermatologist(did i spell that right?) and since my mom said that it's working fine for me, i should just continue using it. my bro nearly flipped when he heard how much was spent.
oh, on the way back from the clinic, my mom was complaining how the other drivers didn't know how to move when the light changed to green yada yada...i was just listening to the song on the radio. and she said "TRAFFIC JAM" the exact same time Alanis Morisette sang "TRAFFIC JAM". the song was Ironic. heh, my mom didn't believe me. wasn't that ironic?
February is here. can't believe i'll be heading back to Melbourne in 3 weeks. where did my holiday go?! read in the papers today that it was raining heavily over there for nearly the whole day. what a summer...
k then. enjoy your weekend! those who are balik kampungin do take care and drive safely!
