Updates from USA
Sunday, May 11, 2008
Alrite, some updates.
Esther’s already at Cedar Point ( 2 days ago ), and she’s fine and adapting to the life there ( almost ).
Darn, can’t think of a proper way to string up the updates… I know she’s gonna be mad at me for doing it in point forms….
1) The weather is very cold over there. She had to buy an additional jacket.
2) She is staying in a dorm with a group of Singaporean girls. ( She sleeps in a double decker bed )
3) Apparently the Singaporeans cook, she may join them in the cooking sessions…. Just a maybe..
4) She has already started working in the F&B section where she works at the back-end while Nick works in the frontline…
5) She works until quite late at night, by the time she reaches her dorm, she’s dead tired already. Straight to bed.
6) The laundry service is 75 cents per wash/dry.. ( see, how can I put this info in a string of sentence without doing point forms…)
7) Esther has yet to get her full schedule, by then, she’ll know when is her off day of the week.
If you haven’t figured it out, this update is not brought to you by Esther.

USA :)
Friday, May 9, 2008
I'm finally in USA now and it's 1am here (12 hours diff). I remember the guy that sat next to me in the plane said to me (when the plane touch down San Fransisco) "Hey, you look really really happy" and I replied "Yeah, I am." :D
Just had dinner and bought a few utilities. at Walmart just now.
Am at my friend's place now, staying overnight here first before checking in Cedar Point tomorrow morning.
Penalty for missing my flight yesterday is $63 -.-
and we had to take a flight from Shanghai to San Francisco, then to Chicago and finally to Cleveland.
I've figured out that the worst thing other than having the guy snoring next to you in the plane and baby crying all the way throughout the journey, is the FOOD. My gosh! The food in United Airlines sux :(
---
p.s.: Fine, I''s tell la.... -.- The reason why I missed my flight yesterday was because MAS flight to Shanghai was delayed and there weren't enough time to check into the next transit.

Hello from Shanghai!
Wednesday, May 7, 2008
I miss my flight from Shanghai to Ohio -.-
Was about 5 minutes late and the counter closed before Nick and I could reach and check in :(
AND NO! You cannot ask why we were late. We were just... late.
Shit happens -.-
Just finish dinner at the food court downstairs.
I'm currently using Nick's laptop, blogging from Dazhong Marrylin Air Port Hotel now. Would be spending the night here before taking tomorrow's flight to Ohio.
Don't worry, I'm all right :)

USA HERE I COME!!!!
Tuesday, May 6, 2008
I'd be leaving for USA in less than 24 hours and I'm filled with mixed feelings. Of anxiousness and excitement. It's not the first time I'm going there but it's indeed the first time I'm going there alone, without my family.
Finally finish packing up my stuffs, filled 2 bags up with attires and other things that I need to bring there.
Would be waking up at 5am tomorrow, reaching the airport at 7am, checking in at 8am.
The flight would be 8:50am from KL, reaching Shanghai at 2:10pm.
From Shanghai 3:55pm, reaching Chicago at 4:16pm.
Finally from Chicago 6:49pm, reaching Cleveland at 9:05pm.

Met up with Mark and OUG CG group yesterday for dinner at Sushi King after watching Iron Man at Mid Valley. We used the buy one free one sms voucher (limited 5 plates), so each person sms-ed and got their free 5 plates of sushi :p It was totally worth it :)
Iron Man, the movie was great. Although I had to wait till the bloody long credits to finish, managed to pull through it (although EVERYONE in the cinema left and the cleaners were doing their jobs already). The ending part has something to do with the Jumper movie. They are connecting Iron Man with Jumper for part 2, I guess. Totally cool!
Mark is leaving for Australia and I doubt he'd be coming back to Malaysia :( So sad, no more 2am late night (or rather early morning) calls to pour out my emotions and feelings. Well, I can say that he's one of those rare people that understands me (to a certain extend) and I would feel comfortable enough to talk to. AND NOW HE'S LEAVING -.-
Mark, I will miss you.and no, I'm not going to Brisbane anytime soon just to see you
:p
Btw, thanks Evon, MC and WT for the meet up lunch today :) And for those that called and sms to wish me a safe journey there and all, big thanks to you guys. And yes Michelle, I'd try my best to come online to update my blog too :p
It's 10 minutes to midnight now and I need my rest.
Ta guys
:)

Year 3 - May
The feeling was peculiar. It confused her, distracting. She had never felt anything like this. These thoughts were so silent it made her head ached.
It was precious that it bonded intangibly to her, a part of her soul. A feeling that she asked herself if she known. I do, she thought to herself. What ponder her was what made her gave it away.
She caressed her chest, softly as if she was touching her heart. Nothing. She knew her heart was beating rhythmically, but that did not matter. She closed her eyes.
Her fingers edged closer, as if she was holding an object.
The locket.
It belonged to her grandmother before it was hers. To her, it was more than a mere accessory. She felt worthy for it. Since then, she wore it proudly, knowing among all she was the one who received it. Perhaps it gave her courage, strength to accomplish matters. When items were considered as a charm for luck, she did not perceive it that way.
Now it is gone. She inhaled, claiming to herself that she had all the strength she needed. Her mind drifted.
Jack. She had never really thought about why did she given the locket to him. Perhaps he could draw strength from it, or from her. Or maybe it was an assurance for her, hoping he would return it to her one day. She wiped her eyes upon that thought.
This was the first time she nearly shed a tear for someone. Nearly, for a reason that she felt so unknown, just like the day he said goodbye in the
Her decision. She hoped he’d understand.

Men and Women
Monday, May 5, 2008
Well, someone commented to my previous post about women :
And like I've mentioned before in my previous post too that I don't believe in finding the other half to complete me... coz I see men and women like this:-
Men are like the earth, they are solid, stable. They change their minds with difficulty. Women are like water, they are like liquid, changing very easily. They move more quickly and choose different ways.
A man is like a ship. He likes to travel around the world. A woman is like a harbour. She makes a home to which a man likes to return. When men have been sailing a while they come to the safe harbour to have a good rest.
A man is like a violin without proper tuining. A woman is like a violin tuner who tunes the violin to get a proper tune.
Men are like plants in the desert. Men try to survive in society that is like a desert because men have to protect their families. Sometimes men want to relax like in an oasis. Woman are like an oasis which gives relaxation and life to plants. An oasis is the most important thing in a desert.
Men are like pianos and women are like the pianists that play them.
Men are like lenses in glasses and women are like frames. Men look into the future and woman hold them in the present.

What does not kill you, makes you stronger.
Sunday, May 4, 2008
when it comes down to it, let them think what they want. If they really care enough to bother what I do, then I'm already better than them anyway.
- Marilyn Monroe
I'm tough, ambitious and know exactly what I want. If that makes me a bitch. okay.
- Madonna
"it's hard to tell who has your back, from who has it long enough just to stab you in it."
- Nicole Richie.
I'm not mean, you're just a sissy.
Don't worry what people think, they don't do it often.

Sms from Philee which I thought of sharing with you people out there
:)
A woman has strengths that amaze men.
She can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens.
She holds happiness, love and options.
She smiles when she feels like dying inside.
She sings when she feels like crying,
cries when she's happy and laughs when she's afraid.
Her love is unconditional!
There's only one thing wrong with her,
she sometimes forgets what she is WORTH.

Marge Simpson: You're a women. You can hold it forever.

Typical girls conversation...
Before your bf got together with you, he once told me that he doesn't like ladies with make up on. Hmm... I see you still wearing light make up.
Well, he did brought it up once. The next day I met him with full make up on and from that day onwards he did not ONCE mention about my usual light make up anymore.
Interesting.
Well, I guess most guys don't really like us with make up on. But I see you still wearing foundation, eyeliner and lip gloss. How did you convinced yours?
Oh! I just told him that I didn't put any make up on. He believed me. No biggie. Not all guys knows the art of make up and the difference between natural make up and other make up.
*giggles*
