ƸӜƷ•¨¯`•My Recuerdos•¨¯`•ƸӜƷ

My lecturer made this statement in class today:-
"Time flies".
My classmate,Preeyah retaliated;saying,
"No,sir.Time crawls."
Which is true??
I'll admit that whenever things are not the way I like it,I'd wish for time to hurry by. But when I'm enjoying myself, I'd wish that the moment would last forever.

Today is the first day of November.
This is going to sound corny but I'll still say it: It seems only yesterday I finished sitting for SPM. Now I'm no longer a school student,finishing my first year in college and about to sit for advanced papers in my course.
In this case,Time does really seems to have flown past with the wings of an eagle.

And yet,with my exams approaching,time feels like going excruciatingly slow. I catch myself looking and the clock and thinking,"Just 10 more minutes and I can go to bed...and this day will be OVER!!!" I have a lot to learn about appreciating time.

Procrastination is one of my worst habits. The best proof is my pile of untouched revision books. I paid a bundle to have them photocopied and yet,I have put off opening them for so long;I don't have sufficient time to make full use of them. Old habits die hard. I'm killing mine as best as I can...This is going to be a LONG,HARD journey.

How I wish time can be held in my hands. But it's never going to come true....otherwise,the world would be perfect;and everyone knows that it is FAR from that...

Just sharing a saying I like very much..

Life is not measured by the number of times you breathe;but the moments that take your breath away.

Wrong...
you're guessing that I've adopted a new animal into my house;WRONG.(haha...got you!!!)
I accompanied my mum to a plant nursery the other day and my mum decided to humour my whim to cultivate plants and fishes in jelly..
My mum got this packet of jelly crystals for me and I soaked them in water...and they expand to 10 times their size.This is what a "jelly ball" looks like:-They're really squishy and they can bounce (this fact was tested by my brother,Joshua who broke several jelly balls by bouncing them on the table. Thank you very much...) Before I mislead you further,these jelly balls are suppose to nourish plants. You put plenty of them into a jar and stick a few pretty ferns into the jelly..*walla* instant home decorative piece. This is what I accomplished with two jars and a few plants snitched from my mum's garden:- I like the effect that the plants look like they're growing out of crystals..I got really excited and made another;which my mum gave to her friend. Feeling really pleased with myself,I embarked on the other half of 'Pet Project'. Cultivating fishes and plants in water simultaneously...

This time..different crystals were used. I kidnapped a few fishes from my mother's fish-pond in the garden and carved a plastic container for the plants. The achieved effect is this:-

Plant on top,fishes below...can you see them??

The crystals are at the bottom of the jar (if you can see some yellow stuff underneath...).
Whoever thought of this cultivation is a real creative mind..
So if you're interested in these..I'd be more happy to give you some of the leftover crystals I have...CHEERS!!!

Yesterday was quiet...today was a frenzy!!!
I went to Sushi King for lunch with my classmates;
Bavanee,Stephanie,Mei Theng,Amy,Choong Lin,Kasthuri,Shobana and Yoke Wei.
The waitress eyes went huge when told that we wanted a table for 10.
And since I "pakat" with Stephanie to share the sushi we eat,we both got to eat quite a big variety of sushi. yum yum...(glutton me..)

And when we got back to college, they presented a cake to me...making it two cakes for my birthday this year...(WOW!) Look at the CHOCOLATE!!!!!!
*sorry Bavanee...I blew out the candles and sliced it before you got a proper picture..
THANKS,FOR GIVING ME A SUSHI EVENT TO REMEMBER AND FOR A SCRUMPTIOUS CAKE.

LOVE YOU !!!!!!!!

(old picture....I don't have a more recent one...sorry if anyone is missing...)

Today...MICHELLE BECOMES LEGAL!!!! (see..I DID say October is the month of birthdays...)
This is Michelle-------------->
(sorry Michelle..I don't have many pictures of you,so had to snitch this from your friendster)

We've been sort of celebrating our birthdays together (because we were born a day apart) but this year;Michelle's in Penang doing Matriculation.
(And some people wonder why I complain I'm deserted in Ipoh...) What a pity...

Anyway..WE'RE BOTH FINALLY 18!!!!
HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHELLE!!!!!!

Haha...
You must be wondering why I put LEGAL as my title. Today is the day I turn 18...
Meaning I'm of legal age to drink( I like Martini ),watch rated movies (according to Nasiha) and smoke (I hate smokers so there isn't a chance in hell I'd smoke...)

Its been quite a quiet day...since there's no college today. So I spent my first day of being legal sleeping,going online and walking around my house. My mobile kept vibrating with messages from my dear friends...whom are out of Ipoh and can't celebrate with me...
This day stayed quiet until my dad came home from work with a pink cake box and a mischievous smile. Here's the cake he bought me..(cheese cake)

After dinner,my whole family gathered in the kitchen and sang, "Happy Birthday",I cut the cake and we munched happily...
Oooo....I got to eat the chocolate guitar which was part of the decoration on top of the cake...(childish ya?? but it was nice)

THANKS..
TO PAPA, MUMMY AND JOSHUA (i LOVE YOU)
TO ALL WHO SENT ME SWEET WISHES (even Charis who is in Russia)
TO ALL OF YOU WHO REMEMBERED THIS DAY AND MADE IT SPECIAL....

October is the month where there are the most birthdays (in my calender at least..) Well...today,is the day CHRYS TURNS 18!!!! This is Chrys:-
I've known her since we were both little kids in Std. 3 (or was it Std. 4??) Its funny how we made friends... You see,I had hamsters at that time; and I gave hamsters to her. We were really into those cute little,furry pets and we would run over to each other's houses to see how the other's fluff balls were doing. Those were the days.....

Anyway,for her birthday,Chrys was in Ipoh so (surprises!!!) she called me out to a birthday dinner with her and a few other friends;Ciara,Michelle and Sze Haw. Despite fervently discussing steamboat places since the week before;the place Chrys chose for the dinner was Ice Ice Baby..a trendy cafe near Padang Ipoh.

The place was pretty cool;we got a special room where we had curtain partitions and nice cushions to sit on. The pictures below are courtesy of Chrys's Facebook(hope you don't mind ,Chrys).

Girls night out...having a good time...(i look horrid...)
Bithday cake: Tiramisu courtesy of Aunty Mooi Ching...

All smiles that night...

Just fork-licking good....

We really ate,laughed and talked....
It was one of the most memorable nights out with my friends...
Thanks Chrys...
