New Year's Eve's Eve's Eve

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Sat, 05 Jan 2008 13:45:00 +0000

29th December 2007

Today's is the eve of the eve of the eve of New Year's Day and I went to MidValley with Pin! ^^ I still prefer last year's Xmas deco but this year it was quite pretty too lah... I guess it is some kinda Enchanted Forest? with warm, brown-ish and orangey tones...

and magical mushrooms! *giggles*

look at me... so happy there... posing behind the reeds...

but before that I actually fell into the reeds and knock a few down... to the bemusement of the people around... *sigh* new year resolution. *stop being klutzy*

Okay, first activity of the day... our belated Christmas gift exchange! ^^ here's my pressie...

seee what's inside!!!

my favourite Daim chocs! *grins* I immediately pop one in my mouth...

Actually I was expecting a plushie hahah but chocs... me love too ^^

in exchange I gave Pin chocolates and a bear, now named Stephy ^^ after the din dang dam girl I think hehehe

also we had ice-cream! at the new gelato kiosk at the Gardens... dunno call what name edi haha

look like a heart leh my ice cream?

but mei funn say it looks like a butt *sulks*

Anyways, we walked around Gardens and then I saw Action city!!! gosh I almost died there. everything is so cute! and there're a lot of 'tofu' stuffs there!!! Luckily I din buy anything as I'm full of self-control and possess a rational mind. *beams*

We watched Alvin and the Chipmunks at GSC Signatures.

paying 20 bucks a pop, I felt that gave us license to camwhore in the very empty cinema. It's nice as there's no queue, and there's a lounging area and the seats are comfortable and plush... also it's couple seat ler... so hopefully my future boyfriend will be generous enough to bring me here always *dream*

now... the movie... omg the chipmunks are utterly adorable!!! *cute*cute*cute* the songs are soooooo cute too...! *giggles*

I especially *heart* Theodore!!! hehehe so cute with his baby fat and nightmares and the cute little Xmas card he drew... so cute!!!

theodore is soooo cute~

playdate at Sylvia's ^^

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Sat, 05 Jan 2008 11:03:00 +0000

Recently, okay... not recently, but last year... *can't believe it's 2008* I went to Sylvia's house to play! hehehe actually I think we were supposed to discuss homework but after awhile we started toying with her camera... oooooomg i'm so jealous 'cuz I also want one of those DSLRs!!! big, big.... so professional... *eyes glaze over* maybe one of my new year resolution can be to save up enough money to buy one by June! haha hmmm...

anyhoo... i digress...

so Sylvia, so sweet of her, taught me how to use it and also things like apperture and shutter speed etc...

here's a photo which I took! My first subject is a....

dental floss hahha ( 'cuz it's Sylvia's product ^^ )

I also asked her to teach me how to capture photos of water droplets... but because there is not enough light inside the house... we had no choice but to traipse out to find water and light... Although I always drive passed Casa Ria all these years, I had never went in before, save for one time when I was in form 2 or 3, when I was invited to Wan Yuan's place. I quite like this place, with it's town house concept, and each block has a garden and it's so nice when u look out of your balcony and you see greens and flowers and sunlight.

So, we walked and chatted then, we came across some flowers which soon became my photography subjects...

and finally we found a pipe!!! hehe here are the water droplets!!!

my droplet!

Sylvia's droplet

Here's also some photos of Sylvia's hamsters! hehe so so so cute! although I din get to see them cuz they're at her condo in Puchong... hope I get one of the baby ham hams soon ^^ *excited!*

Back To School Shopping!

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Sat, 05 Jan 2008 07:41:00 +0000

After a one year hiatus from conventional academic pursuits, college is starting next week o.o I'm kinda excited but a little part of me is dreading it because this means I have to wake up early in the morning and also I'll have to sacrifice time to play so I can be more focused on my studies.

Anyways to prepare, I went to Popular to buy back to school stuffies, like stationaries and notebooks and others. also the artline drawing pen like nat's and alex's so I can draw my storyboards for my ads. ^^

I kinda miss my old school days... feel so nostalgic when I hear Coreen and mei funn talking bout school life... simple things like painting the class or the first day of school or going to tuition in a gang... all these can be so much fun if you're with your close high school friends... but it's time for a new chapter in my life now... so here's hoping college will be great! weee~

FOR COREEN

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Sat, 29 Dec 2007 14:33:00 +0000

A year has almost pass me by and I realised I have changed somewhat and people around me have grown and changed too... I guess people must change and evolve as time passes... Evidence? My dear Coreen...! *see the photos below*

Last year she was still a pale-faced, innocent little girl... so han xiu da da...

After a year... *wah!* become some hot sexy chick that makes guys swoon... see lah chun fei's love-strucked gaze *wakakaka*

Benazir Bhutto is assasinated!

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Fri, 28 Dec 2007 03:46:00 +0000

I was still half-asleep when i was stumbling down the stairs when I saw the headline. My mind was immediately jolted awake by the death of Benazir Bhutto. I can't believe she's dead. I thought she's going to win the election or something... I guess life is brief and we must expect the unexpected. Hope she's in a happier place now.

Today is also an historical day because my little sister has registered at her new secondary school! Although I'm really proud of her entering a new phase of her life, it's a bittersweet feeling because she is not going to SAB. Well, it's true I don't think SAB is a really great school or anything but still... I would love it if she studies in my alma mater.

also it's been a few weeks since my dear Muni..

has gone back and I really miss her! especially her great cooking... now I have to eat rice that is not nice and fluffy but coarse and ewww-ish... I feel like a refugee! *wails*

and! yesterday was Natasha and my thai mom's birthday... so HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the both of them ^-^

nostalgia~

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 03:40:00 +0000

While browsing through my inbox, i got this mail from chiann... made me think back about the good old days. man.. i'm old.

If you are Msia's 80s baby, read through this,
we grew up watching Transformers,Thundercats, Woody Woodpecker,Chipm unks, Mickey Mouse, Jem, The Mask,Ninja Turtles, Voltron, Baja Hitam, Popeye,Ultraman n not forgettin SAILORMOON,POWER RANGERS n BUGS BUNNY!!! McGyver?

had to brush our teeths during recess at primary school?
had to hold plasticcups, line up with your classmates side by side and start brushing our teeths at some open area... or maybe near somedrain??

do you still remember that we had'dentist' rooms where we had to have our teeth check?
not to forget our 'program minum susu'in primary school.. everybody is supposed to buy like cartons of milk that costed30 cents..
and you would see everyone drinking it everyday...its d UHT milk...

the teachers who would want to punish us must use yellow rulers to hit us on our palms??
1 metre length..

that a bowl of mihun soup or some soup only costed 50 cents at the school canteen...

went to some sundry shop near the school or to the 'roti' man waiting outside our schools so that we can buy junk foodlike chickedees, mamee, ding dang withsome toys in it, 'Ti Kam', ice-cream and we would play games like monopoly, uno,old maid, and all other card games like that...

another fun time would be during Pendidikan Jasmani. the boys would play football while the girls would play netball... and it would be like we were playing in the world cup...

but of course. the best would be main guli, batu seremban, bottlecaps, ice-cream sticks, 'Pepsi Colaone-two-three', Cops and Robbers, main kejar-kejar duduk, getah... and for the not so active, those kind of 'bookgames' where we would use buku latihan to draw and ask our friends to play...

do you remember the ice-cream tubes which are actually ice and colouring that are sold for 10 to 20 cents.. the colourful ones.. where you usually bite off the top to gulp it down. orange taste is d best..(pop-ice)

what about days when we felt like doing naughty things such as folding papers so small to make 'lastik' amd shoot each other... how about throwing chalks??

back then, micheal jackson was just turning white.. and still had albums coming out.. compared to CD's, we were listening to tapes that sold for RM9.90...

in computer class, we were still usingblack and white computer moniters..played 'Atari'... maybe SEGA or NINTENDO..

gosh... those were the days... *old*

My Daemon

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 07:58:00 +0000

When I went to voon's blog, I saw that she has got herself a daemon from the Golden Compass website... naturally I want one too!!

I was adamant that I get the huge polar bear! wow so huge and yeng!!! However, what I got was a Raccoon... named Aesop. so gay wei. dammit. No matter how many times I do the test, tweaking my answers here and there... i still got a Raccoon... sigh i've accepted my fate.

So i've got a gay raccoon... sigh~

Ladies and gents.. please welcome the one and only...

Aesop!

Aesop's linkie here

For your own daemon... go here!

Roller coaster day...

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 10:35:00 +0000

today was a... busy day? a happy day? sad day? not a good day?

Today kept going up and down, just like a roller coaster.

In the earlier part of the day, I was constantly fretting and worrying about my doomed Singapore trip and it has made me really upset and unable to focus on my homework and packing for the Malacca trip. sigh. There was a bad feeling pestering me at the back of my head all day long. Then there was the shit load of homework. Actually maybe its not a lot... just that in my current bad state of mind, it seemed magnified a thousand times.

Anyways there were some happy stuffs. I went to register for my CPU (finally) in the morning! Yay! I'm finally a college student haha no more dropping out! lol

taadaa~ my letter of acceptance! haha *excited!*

I actually planned to have lunch with Pin, but my mom had to rush back home so the plan was shelved and she went to lunch with her college mates instead. *sad*

I almost missed meeting her, but luckily as I was walking out of the gates, I saw Pei Wern and her friends! Pei Wern said Pin had came back early to look for me *gan dong* (but she didn't see me in the registration office, so she went back to her class) Anyways, I finally got to meet Pin afterall! =D got to chat with her a bit and see her classroom. Erm... smaller than I imagined.

In the afternoon, I went to Yogazone with ching yee! ^^ omg there's nobody in the afternoon... Only 4 students... haha which i like. the less people the better. I was really glad to see Ching Yee and the yoga helped to clear my mind so after the class I was feeling waaay better. But today the weird yogazone staff is working. I dread to see him everytime. *bluek*

oohhh... and i got a present from ching yee!!! hehe

souvenir from Hong Kong!

she gave me a pair of earrings too! hehe so happy! I just love the bracelet! Especially the strawberry and the key charm. ^^

I did managed to finish my homework (around 80%... okay maybe 70...) and I was preparing to go to class when I suddenly felt like not going. My bag is not packed, some camp stuffs are not bought... I feel tired and mentally drained... etc... so I decided not to go. But I felt like discussing my ideas... wat a dilemma. but in the end I din go. OMG i missed class! can't believe it. It's my first time. Hopefully it's the last too. Another reason why I didn't go is cuz today's my maid last day with me. She'll be flying off on Sat but I'll be in Malacca then. So it's good that I can spend some time with her. So sad she's leaving... but maybe it's good too... cuz she always cook really nice food... make me eat so much and consequently become fat.

kitty sausages! so cute! ^^

Today's also Ai Lyn's birthday!!! HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY LYN!!! ^^

Finally Ai Lyn has joined the 18 year old club! Sadly, I'm gonna leave it in about a month or so. feel so old~

I LOVE HORSES!!! Pt. 1

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Mon, 03 Dec 2007 10:39:00 +0000

Recently, after missing it for two years, I finally got to fulfill my dreams to go to the KL Grand Prix!!! *excited!* this year its called the FEI CSI 5 (STAR) Grand Prix... wah~ the name so long and canggih hehe~ Altho Grand Prix reminds me of racing cars.. It's actually a showjumping championship ^^

Anyways. I got to go with the world's most adorable girl - SiN COREEEN!

but she almost din go with me~! (altho she promised!!!) so sad~ luckily i went to find her at her house the night before, bringing along her secret crush *cough* *cxxn fxi* *cough* hehehehe~ only then did she remembered her promise to go with me.

i digress. back to the story.

On a fine, breezy Sunday morning, I waited at the Tasik Selatan STAR station for ma chere amie, Coreen to arrive. After what seemed like an eternity, her train finally arrived and I rushed into door #7, excited to see Coreen. Hmm.. she's a bit tanned edi after her holiday in Langkawi? Pangkor? hehe sorry i forgot where. It's some beach.

Anyways. We arrived at Bukit Jalil LRT station, expecting to see throngs of people and a party atmosphere, but it was so quiet! *sound of wind blowing* There was no indication of any event going on, and I secretly panicked a little. A trio of foreigners were equally baffled and thought they might ask the locals *ahem* us but sorry lah.. we also dunno... So all of us just marched on into the unknown.

Thankfully, after traipsing through vast uninhabitated land, we soon found our event!!!

Horses!!!

Real... and sculptures!

These horse sculptures are done by Lim Kok Wing students and each one is supposed to represent a personality of Samsung, one of the main sponsors. I think they are humanity, beauty and dunno what. haha I forgot. It is a design competition actually and the red one is the winner. My personal favourite is the cartoon one tho, which stands for 'humanity'

damn cute!

Anyways. If you have a bunch of colourful horses, two girls and a camera, what do u get? Cam-whore time of course =P

After taking lotsa photos, we decided to ride the horse-carriage! Actually I wanna ride on horses and ponies too... but didn't lah in the end. So sad. At least I got to ride on the carriage! So soh poh. I thought it was 30 bucks per ride. Actually it's just 3 lah. swt. -.-

I love the carriage ride!!! *heart*heart*heart* By the way, I decided to have one for my wedding, but shaped in a pumpkin of course. Just like Cinderella! weee~ I want it pulled by 5 horses and horse #1 shall be dyed pink colour!!! and with mini pumpkin carriages for my bridesmaid at the back!!! *giggles* and an entourage of ponies! with cherubic little kids riding them~ *eyes glaze over*

sigh~ coreen is so pretty right?

Me and the horsey! It has the eye-covers thing, just like race horses! hehe maybe so it won't get distracted by its surroundings when it's pulling the carriage around. I love it... it has warm breath hahah

The show is gonna start soon so we went inside the Putra stadium! Wah... got a lot of booths! And quite a lot of people too! hehe I wanna learn horse-riding!!! anyone wanna sponsor me? hehe Got booths sellling equesterian stuffs and spca and other thingeys. Then there's this really impressive malay dude. Using pen on cloth, he attempts to create the longest drawing ever! His work is really nice and detailed! It's like he drew all the historical stuff and civilizations and etc. Here's a shot of a part of his work. It's really long actually ^^

There are actually more booths in the inner part of the stadium! mostly food and souvenirs. Also! A large inflatable castle thingey! Of course I wanna go and play... but didn't lah... or Coreen will be embarrassed. also.. i'm overaged. dammit i'm so old. *SULKS*

The Samsung Cup gonna start at 4.30! So we quickly got into the stadium...

To be continued...

More photos here!!

Ingredients to make a Happy Me

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Mon, 03 Dec 2007 09:16:00 +0000

Just woke up from my nap!!! Feel so happy and contented now!~ ^-^

However, this morning I was not feelin so good tho. In fact, i was feelin kinda lethargic. I was soo sleepy, my head hurts real bad (T-T)

I decided to ask Emma, our HR manager whether I could work half-day. And of course, she, being a nice person said yes. Plus there's not many things to do today. Today was just some basic number crunching and cross-checking. A long list, but its a simple job. To get me through the day, I drank two cups of espresso (mixed with milo) And then... not only did my head hurt, my stomach hurts as well. I wanna go home! huuhuu~

I estimated I'll get everything done by 12.30 or 1 and finally go home and sleep my head off. But somehow I managed to finished my work faster than I thought! *gleeful grin*

"All done, just in time to go home!"

Just nice! ^-^I finished at 12, right on the dot! Didn't plan it okay? I'm so amazing!! *another gleeful grin* So off I went, sleepwalking to the LRT station. I was soo tired I slept in the train and apparently I'm not the only one. Everyone else seem to be sleeping too. Sigh. Mondays.

anyhoos. Mummy and Wen Wen was late!! I had to wait for 20 mins at KL Sentral. Then mumsie decided to go to the temple for vegetarian lunch cuz its Chor Yat today. BUT actually its not. swt. and so, of course there's no chor yat lunch lah. she's so blur ler. I think I inherited my blurness from her.

In the end, we had dim sum ( i *heart* dim sum! wee~) for lunch. After that, both of them went back to Mummy's office while I, lucky me, spent a leisurely afternoon at home.

It seems like I've been neglecting my own well-being recently. After waking up early everyday to go to work, beating rush hour traffic to KL Sentral, battling for a place in the LRT every morning, rushing to class after work, running around here and there, going out every day, sleeping late, rushing to do my work/homework etc etc I'm so knackered and worn-out. And altho there's still lotsa stuffs to be done and to fret and worry about, I decided what the heck. I'll just forget it (temporarily) and just give myself a break.

Just feels so good to have an afternoon all to myself! No rush, no work. Just reading papers, taking a warm bath and NAPPING!!! =DDD

Feels like my batteries are recharged! ^^

Finally ,today I found out the absolutely vital things to create a Happy Me!

My 3 Basic Ingredients for Happiness

1. Sufficient Sleep. (10 hours is the optimum)

2. Good Food.

3. Nice, Warm Baths.

Of course there are other ingredients like... reading books and watching tv/dvd/movies and not having constipation ( I remember my primary 3 teacher say we must go to the toilet everyday heheh) and getting my hair washed at the salon and massages and manicures and pedicures and shopping and chocolates and plushies and lip glosses and ... the list is endless. But now, I just have to make sure I get enough of the 3 basic ones. ^^

blur + sleepy

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Fri, 30 Nov 2007 09:03:00 +0000

Today's freefood Friday, so our office ordered Domino's. More bout this later.

Anyways. I'm waiting for them to fax the invoice so when the fax suddenly rang I quickly collected the paper. Expecting domino's invoice, I was shocked to get a weird fax.

"We have been receiving blank faxes from you."

omg. Looks like I have been faxing stuffs terbalik all these while. ugh. How??? T-T

I'm so tired and sleeeeepy...... I feel like a zombie... I've been getting increasingly blur... Today morning I was really mad cuz my touch n go card was not working. I used different entrances but they all did not work!!! Turns out I have been using my isetan card to try to get in. sigh. I din even notice. *malu*

but speaking of isetan. There's member sale today!!!

Picture Personality

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Fri, 30 Nov 2007 02:00:00 +0000

There's this app in Facebook which funn funn recommended to me called picture personality. It's like u choose photos and then based on your selections, the app will decipher your personality. So here's my results ~

Temperament
Cosmopolitan
When you wake up in the morning, you set out to impress and to make a lasting impression on those who you encounter. You surround yourself with all the right people and right things - making you a real trendsetter. Others admire and want to be just like you. Second best will not do - it's the best (and only the best) for you. You are attentive to detail in yourself, your surroundings and your social circle.

Interests
Fashionable
Sophisticated, glamorous and experienced. You love everything that is new, fashionable and in vogue. Others admire you, but can't always relate to you since you are a real diamond in the ruff. You like to be two steps ahead of everyone else when it comes to the latest and greatest trends. It could take your counterparts years to adopt your current trends. You just seem to know what's "hot" before everyone else does.

Amusement
Thoughtful
You are easily stressed out and overwhelmed - you need to take care of yourself first and foremost. Because you tend to be self reflective, you know your limits quite well and must remember to not exceed those limits. When you overwhelm your life with obligations and responsibilities, you tend to shut down and go into yourself even further. Take some time to find your serenity and kick back your feet.

Passion
Emotional
For you passion is less about romance and sex - it's more about friendship and family. Strong emotional bonds and connections are your passion and your pleasure. You always let your loved ones know how much you love, respect and admire them. You do this through kind words, loving actions and simple gestures. You count your blessings each day and express your love openly. You expect the same from others.

updates!~

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Fri, 16 Nov 2007 16:37:00 +0000

Well, since the last time i blogged, which is like a kazillion years ago, lotsa stuff has happened in my life. I have since met a dashing young man, got married, bought an expensive condo, have kids (2 girls and 1 boy and 3 puppies) and lived happily ever after.

I wish.

Back in reality-land, there're no weddings and husbands and kids, but I...

#1. Participated in Ad Unplugged!
I was a participant of Ad Unplugged, organised by the 4A and 95% (my skoo!). It was held in sunway hotel and spa and we got to work with ECDs (Executive Creative Director) from KL's top ad agencies. weee~ And I got to worked with Daniel Comar (yay!) the hottest ECD ever! altho i actually prefer french guys more but he's not too bad. Oh I also bought a t-shirt with his name on it hehehe

read here and here for more about Ad Unplugged.

#2. Became obsessed with Stolichnaya

#3. Went to Vishul's Deepavali Open House

#4. Married Prince Harry (just kidding)

#5. Notice the existence of Miu Kiu-Wai.
He's like damn cool and self-assured. *drools* anyways... saw him in Brothers (starring Miu Kiu-Wai, Andy Lau n Eason) with Funn and Chun Fei. However I was a lil miffed that day cuz I wasted almost 10 bucks on cab to get to Times Square. Lucky the movie was good.

#6. Successfully survived my presentation.
I thought the strategy part was okay ler... but my ads suck. They were practically non-existent. I resolve to work harder next time.

#7. Completed the 2nd module of my ad class (yay!)
so proud of myself and thankful to Peter and my class.

#8. Started work at Paradigm Geophysical.

#9. Got truly, craptastically addicted to Facebook.
HELP!!! i'll be on facebook at 3 in the morning, during work, in the evenings as i'm eating my dinner. ugh. mostly i'm playing with my (fluff)friend. cute!

#10. Forsaken my yoga class
feel so shitty. waste my mommy's money. I missed one whole week!!! Must go to Yogazone more often!!! Anyways i've got my bad karma for squandering my dearest mummy's hard earned cash. I have grown a little chubbier *sulks* Plus, constant eating at Paradigm doesn't help matters much.

Little Monster goes to work Day #6

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Fri, 16 Nov 2007 15:23:00 +0000

Yay! It's finally Friday! The day I've been looking forward to for the WHOLE week. I've been counting down the days and finally. It has arrived!!! *orchestral music rising in a crescendo*

A shiver of anticipation coursed through me as the hours and minutes went by. Hmm... I can almost taste it...

So there I was, sitting patiently at the reception desk, biding my time.

The little clock at the lower right hand corner of my Dell shows 11.21 a.m. I groaned. I wish I can press a fast-forward button and speed things up a little. *sigh*

Suddenly out of nowhere, two lovely ladies appeared in front of Paradigm's door. My heart skipped a beat. A quick press of the button thingey underneath my desk opened the door and granted them access into the hallowed halls of Paradigm.

And when they entered, they brought with them the !!!treasure!!! *on a little pushcart* and the wonderful aroma of FOOD... Glorious Food wafted in, tickled my nostril and permeated the whole office. (and made my stomach growl like hell)

Yes! it's FRIDAY a.k.a. Free Food Day in Paradigm! Don't you just love this company? Anyways I helped to set up the 'buffet table' by getting the plates and cutleries ready. See I so helpful! hehehe oh.mi.gosh.i.cant.stand.it.im.so.hungry!!!

It's 12 (lunch time) edi.. but I dare not eat... cuz the staff from tower 2 are not here yet... and not many people in our office have started eating... You know lah.. I am so demure and polite... cannot appear to be such a ravenous she-wolf. Luckily Emma (our HR manager) saw me and told me not to wait. What a lifesaver! So i grabbed a plate and got my FOOOOOD! YES!!

Usually for lunch I just get sandwiches from San Fran downstairs or eat biscuits, and once I brought pumpkin kueh from home. Simple stuff you know? So you can't blame me for being so jakun about my Friday lunch! Compared to my usual lunch chow, this is a feast!! Today we have tomato rice, fried bee hoon, chicken (fried and drenched in some nice sauce), fried sotong (my fav), curry puffs, cream puffs, konyaku jelly, ais kacang and some other stuffs. I can't remember 'cuz I din eat it. Slightly better than last Friday's. And I thought our Intec staff was well treated 'cuz we got Dunkin Donuts every Friday from Norm (Intec boss). But man was I wrong. Gosh. I *heart* Paradigm.

Anyways, since my recent weight gain, I decided to stop nicking Jacob's crackers from the pantry. I have been eating like a million of those wheat crackers. weetamix? weetmeal? dunno what its called. damn addictive. am i weird? but wei mein likes them too. so it must be good. I always take 5 or 6, wrap them in serviettes and curi-curi eat them at the reception desk haha eh but i think i'm allowed to lah actually. Anyhows.. since I had a great lunch today, I kept to my resolution. Total weet crackers for today? Only 2. *sigh* I have such great self control. *bangga*

Today not much work. Not many phone calls. Just did a little number crunching for Emma and asking all the staff to verify their details for the new name cards. But most were overseas. Frankly, I am a little bored today. Did my French homework and played Facebook. Oh! forgot to include this in my 'updates' post. My French teacher, Fino has been replaced. *sad* I think he was too sick and then he resigned. This is my deduction lah. Cuz last last week he was sick so no class. Then this week they said he resigned. Like, huh? but no fear! I shall get to the bottom of this tomorrow!!!

So now we have this real French guy, Patrice as our teacher. Fino was more fun and focused more on conversational French. This guy is a bit more serious, a tad less lively than Fino but I sense that I'll learn more from him. Now I've memorised my verbs (and their various forms), which are etre, aller and avoir (the verbs to be, to go and to have, respectively).

My mom has balik-ed kampung for her cousins wedding so i'm stranded alone in this cruel, cold city without *SOB* transport home. Luckily my gu-gu (auntie) works in TA, just opposite KLCC, so can tumpang her car home. Problem is, she fong gong at 6 and me? at 5. How? Go shopping lah of course!

Was wondering which perfume to buy??? Anna Sui's dolly girl? Luv the scent. But i dun like the doll head bottle. Anna's secret garden? Lurve the bottle to bits but I can't remember the scent. Estee Lauder Pleasures delight? My personal favourite. Probably gonna be welcomed into my perfume collection but I tried it on that day and everyone complained its too intense and over-bearing. sigh. but it smells like food! Anyways today they were promoting Nina Ricci's apple-shaped one. Should I buy that? Should I? It has got strawberries and violets and dunno what. Smells not bad. But the most important thing is that it comes with a complimentary miniature! so uber cute I tell u!!! the itsy-bitsy little apple bottle! weeeeeee~

Anyways since I couldn't make up my mind, I bought lip gloss instead from Paul and Joe. I couldn't decide whether to buy pink or salmon-ish, peach-ish orange. *dilemma* instead of buying both like my usual impulsive self, I went with pink 'cuz its my favourite colour. And saved money! so responseeeble! and possess rational thinking! Btw, I must so replace my Bonuslink card if not wasted all the stuff I buy in Parksons. Can't save the points. Stupid. All the Benefit stuff I bought. No points. ARGH.

Today I also helped some lady whom I met at the KL Conv. centre. Poor thing. Got lost in huge, confusing, english-language-signboard-less KL. Previous attempts to ask for directions resulted in revealing the true 'powderful-ness' of Malaysians' English. Sad case. It's KLCC for heaven's sake. How can people not know how to speak English properly? It also resulted in her gushing praise of my English haha aiyer like that also so good edi? She should speak to my classmates lor. Their english is damn power okay? Got accent somemore leh!

Anyways she is a really amazing lady! Wish I had more time to talk to her or get her e-mail or something. It's like so comfortable chatting with her. She's like this Jamaican lady who now works for the Commonwealth in London and is really warm and nice and knowledgeble. She told me bout some American unis and Jamaica and chocolates etc etc and of course the perfunctory 'Malaysians are nice and friendly' and 'patient and willing to help although their English is not so good' hahah

She also kept on praising my very powderful English. Kept on saying stuff like 'wow your intonation, your bla bla bla is so good' 'are you a teacher?' etc swt swt swt -.-" really swt! Cuz I was just speaking normally okay? Plus, I accidentally said on transit instead of in transit. memalukan. shit i'm a bloody pedantic. I digress. So. Dunno why people have the notion that it so surprising for a Malaysian to speak good English? Same thing happened when I was in Thailand. The British teachers were surprised to know that we can speak English well. I feel that generally most Malaysians can speak good English wat! Unfortunately Ms. Johnson had the 'honour' of meeting some who can't and her perception is now skewed! forever!! and this banner seem to reinforce that notion.

Aiyo. So embarrassing until have to hide it with a large urn/flower pot thingey.

Copy reads: Malaysian Make Products and Services.

Great. 'Should be Malaysian-made Products' imho. And services can be 'make' one meh? sry lah when u say services I think whores. ya i got dirty brain. so what? sue me.

So this is supposed to be for some bazaar thingey besides zouk. It is was a parking lot! Now it's some 'malaysian make products and services' bazaar, sempena visit malaisie year. Just great. *fumes* Now I have no more cheap place to park. *sulks* Parking is so expensive okay!?!?! Unless u shop at isetan and you have isetan card, which yay! i just got! then u'll get 4 hours off. But have to spend money buying stuff first ler.

Anywaaays. I also bumped into Kar Mun at KLCC but din get to stop and chat with her =( ho-hum. I think TARC is having their hols now. Anyways that's all for today. I'm going to bed. Mummy's coming back tomorrow and also French class! can't wait!

Little Monster goes to PetroScience!!

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Wed, 31 Oct 2007 18:00:00 +0000

On a bright, sunny Tuesday morning, L' Petitmonstre arrived in KLCC to meet the little piggy Nobuta! Nobuta is from a ban nook called Sitiawan (just kiddin dear) and Nobuta's school - SMK Methodist ACS's MASCTECH or the math, science and technology club has organised a trip to KL. First they're going to go to PetrolScience, then the Science Centre then ONE UTAMA!!! so cool hor this school trip? Shopping provided! How thoughtful hehe

Anyways L'Petitmonstre decided to tag along! wee~ and thanks to Mr. Ling, the teacher, she gets to go in for free! So there was everyone, lined up patiently, waiting for their turn to board the black round transport thingey to get into petrolscience. The ride was sooo fast it made a snail seemed faster than Superman.

By this time, lil monster had gotten to know a few friends, there's Jennifer, who's smart and beautiful, then there's a girl and a few guys, including one cute (real cute not hunky cute) without eyebrows hehe

It was tremendous fun as Nobuta and lil monster went wild in PetroScience! They clowned around and snapped like a kazillion photos! There were so many things to see in PetroScience! First there was the physics experiment things, then some wayang kulit section which was probaby about lights and angles and such.

einstein!

kerepek satu bungkus!

car ride!

got caught peeing behind the bush

contractor: "This one needs a boob job."

Beating around the bush

AWAS! Hot chicks ahead *perasan*

teksi!!

My fav photo!

There's so much more too! Like the romantic cloud backdrop thing! Where Nobuta and lil monster put on a little drama for some amused school girls from Kepong.

Scene 1
Nobutaland
Cliffs near the sea.

*dramatic orchestral music*

lil monster: "where oh where is my darling Nobuta~~~"

Meanwhile, Nobuta is being held captive by evil giant seaweeds in Kazhakstan.

Slowly, Nobuta ate the seaweeds one by one and soon after two years she finally broke free! Finally! Nobuta is back home, her heart full of longing to see lil monster.

Scene 2
Back in Nobutaland

Nobuta:"Finally. Home. Where's my lil monster....."

Unfortunately, during Nobuta's absence, lil monster could not contain her hiao-ness and already had a change of heart.

Lil monster: *bitchy voice* forget it gal! I edi got other guys. Monday got Daniel Wu, Tuesday got Zac Efron, Wednesday got Wang Lee Hom, Thursday got the angkasawan, Friday got Shia leBeouf, then Saturday got Mr. Wolfe from csi miami then Sunday got.... yadda yadda yadda... suen ba la~

Nobuta: but..........

Zac Efron enters. Lil monster: "Hi honey!" *muacks*
Both of them hold hands and walk away, leaving Nobuta alone.

*sad melancholic music*

Nobuta: "why~ why~" *sniff sniff* "Come back please"

So that's the tragic end of Nobuta and lil monster's love story. Heartbroken Nobuta went to Korea to cheer herself up and met Hyun Bin and married him and live happily ever after. Lil monster is green with jealousy but cant do anything except sulk all day.

---*end of drama*---

After that, they met a huge T-rex who raps! cool innit? but he is a bad bad dinosaur!!! because he ate lil monster and Nobuta. (cuz he's jealous they're cuter than him)

lil monster trying to save Nobuta from being the rapping t-rex's lunch...

Lil monster's turn to get eaten.

Almost swallowed.

Kepong school girls in shock after the brutal end of Nobuta and lil monster

Anyways, after being regurgitated from the rapping dinosaur's tummy, lil monster and Nobuta wandered around in the pre-historic world before they continued on their journey! They quickly went pass the fossil stuffs and the playing kids section and soon, they found a mini astrodome thingey!

Volcano!!!

leng luis facilitators! hehehe

the astrodome/mini planetorium thingey

Alas! it was closed and lil monster and Nobuta were not allowed to climb in. So they had no choice but to leave dejectedly. *sulks*

But no worries, because soon, they found some other things to pique their interest. It is the space section! They manage to make some colgate advertisements and camwhore with a mac! cool, no?

magic powers! muahahaha~

After posing and posing and posing... suddenly! *cue dramatic music* lil monster and Nobuta realised they're left behind!!! Oh no! Where have the others gone? But luckily there was this guy who notified us that the rest are in the oil drilling section. (60% are alreadythere. lol) Phew... so off we went!!!

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh~ Lil monster and Nobuta love the oil drilling place! It's like uber cool... plus there are oil drilling men there! *dreamy face* *drooools*

!attention! certain photos below are classified 18 sx. If you're underaged please walk away from your computer... now! or scroll down REAL fast. That includes you sook voon hahah =D juz kiddin lol

So you know, the little team of Nobuta and lil monster is waaaaaaaaaaay behind everyone else but finally after a while they caught up with the rest of the herd because it is time to leave *sad* before they left tho, they managed to slide down a giant slide and play some puzzle game with ropes. Soon, they were back on the round capsules on their way back to civilization i.e. KLCC.

Lil monster was kinda sad cuz she couldn't follow Nobuta to the science centre and one utama because she has class in the evening... So with a heavy heart, lil monster followed Nobuta out to say bye bye. While they were going down the escalator... Suddenly! someone hugged Nobuta! Turns out to be Nobuta's kinda-cute-part-time-model-may-be-gay-and-kinda-intimidating-but-still-kinda-cute friend. Anyways lil monster was really intimidated because she thought she sensed him giving her the once over *ahem* which lil monster loves to do when she meets new people and inside her head give bitchy comments about the clothes, the image, the hair, the everything. So anyways... everyone soon said bye bye and Nobuta gave lil monster the longest bear hug ever and everyone parted ways. Lil monster was sad and wished she had more time with Nobuta but was glad to because she had such a fun morning.

~The End~

p.s. lil monster apologizes for the bad picture quality as her Photoshop has gone completely bonkers. So... sorry bout the dark pictures and grainy pictures and lil monster not so cute face pictures.

Je suis en retard. sob

noreply@blogger.com (petitmonstre) — Sat, 27 Oct 2007 15:56:00 +0000

I was late AGAIN today for French class. Although last week was not my fault this week it was. I really couldn't wake up today!!! T-T

At 1.10 pm i was still struggling to get out of bed... I managed to brush my teeth, wash my face, pick some clothes, grab a quick bite and get ready... all in 1o mins! quick leh? Lucky my 'look' these few days is low mantainance, boring and simple. That's why can so fast.. but so sien ler.. must change my style soon... anyways... somehow I managed to drive myself to class...

Unfortunately, due to my sleep-deprivation-induced blurriness I took the MRR II road instead of the Sungai Besi way... Omigod it is so bloody jam lor!!! sooooooooo many cars!!! ugh.. waste my time... It took me like, 40 minutes to reach Jln Semarak! The usual is just like 15-20 minutes ler. I was so agitated inside the car! Luckily i changed from Hitz.fm to Lite 'n' Easy... those jazzy songs really calmed me down... although I was so calmed I almost fell asleep... bad bad girl... But finally I reached L'Alliance Francaise! phew...

Being 2o minutes late, i sheepishly went into class, all the while mumbling 'excusez moi.. excusez moi...' but Fino (my teacher) said ca va... ca va... and motioned me to sit down... but later in class he took a dig at me for being late *sulks*

I really hate to be late for French cause its my favourite class... =( and also... in French 'I am late' is 'Je suis en retard'... sounds like 'I'm a retard' to me... Hence I have decided to be early for everything! Cuz I dun wanna be retarded ler! Actually I made a resolution a few months ago to be punctual and I have been sticking my resolution (except for a few minor relapses) Anyways, next week I am going to be super early!!! ^^

Today is quite a productive day! I learnt all the numbers from 0 - 1 billion! geng leh? hehe

French is such a funny language! Do you know what's 80 in french? It is quatre-vingts or in English 'four twenties'. Cute hor?

Then 98 leh..? it's quatre-vingt-dix-huit... or 'four twenties and nineteen'

then got other different different one ler... at first I was amazed but it can be quite a headache trying to remember everything. Thank goodness I'm so smart so it shall be a breeze for me *perasan*

Today Fino brought Raya cakes to class... cuz actually Fino is a Malay guy lah.. but was brought up in France and then his uncle works for Unicef in Paris or something. Anyways.. I took a lot of helpings hehe usually I am very shy about eating so much one lor... but don't care lah... everyone else also shy shy don't wanna eat so I eat lor... got chocolate cake and a colourful cake... i took a photo but it's not very clear cause I was in a rush to eat the cake *giggles sheepishly*

Very happy today cause i've learnt all my numbers!!! Before this I could only count to 10. so sad hor? like little kid level only... but anyhow now i'm at the super genius level... now I'm hard at work practising how to say 989,898 fluently hehehe

Anyways after class I bought Ai Yu Bing and chicken rice as lunch... cuz today the cafe in L'AF don't have snacks... so I was super hungry...

I bought from the Zheng Zhong Hai Nan Ji Fan stall!!! This stall's chicken rice is super good! It's near Leisure Mall and beside The Guitar Store and it's the authentic Hainan Chicken Rice! Although it's a weee bit pricey but it's so damn good that now I'm a regular customer! hehehe

On another matter... I'm so sad cuz I can't' join funn for a movie... I really wanted to go... but I was supposed to go to a performance in PGRM. It's to raise funds for chinese primary schools I think and somehow my lil sister managed to get super lotsa tickets hehe However, in the end, I decided to stay home to concentrate on my assignment. However, in the end, I got distracted and watched tv and went online. but i did do some research okay? hehe
