Mama Cat

i feel like i've been hiding in a cave for a long time.....haha...my blog is crying for UPDATES!

exam's over almost 3 weeks ago... on holiday for a month and next semester registration is on 27th May... and this means EXAM RESULT is going to come out SOON!!! and now i regret for not studying harder....gosh.. please please...let me do ok T.T

so what have I been doing on my holiday? the first was quite active..went to gym and jogging with Bella...then a day beofre my birthday, something unfortunate happened. Bella's dad gotten a stroke and being the caring and sweet daughter she is, she has been taking care for her dad ever since. Just yesterday, she told me he is getting better. He'll always be in my prayer for full recovery and good health.

Then it was my birthday. I went out with my girlfriends during the day and we had lunch at Fish and Co. I tried the wrasse fish sambal. Yum! I finished everything on my plate! Steph had Caesar Salad, Jo had mushroom soup and choco junkie shake while Janet had fish and chips. Fish and Co has always been one of my fave diner. After eating lunch, they suprised me with a beautiful birthday cake! and Francis baked it. Taste: Delicious!!! Thank you guys! :)

Besides that, been working on my holidays as well. There are good days and bad days. One particularly bad day just happened on last Saturday. I had to teach from 2.30 to 6.30 p.m. One particular student of mine who is a primary 4 student really tested my patience that day. He has always been slow since the first day and I tried my best and with so much patience to guide. He can't even understand simple instruction like "copy this paragraph". He asked " Which one to copy teacher?". So I SHOWED him agan " This part"..and then 10 min utes part and I went and look at his work..He didn't do ANYTTHING! He asked " Is it it this one?"...gosh, if it's the first time, i can still take it....but it's been TWO MONTHS! The reason is he is sooooo conscious of what's happening around him. He hardly concentrates and lost in his thoughts often. I was sooo mad dutring Maths class when he can cheekily laugh at his fellow classmate's mistake but he is still not doing any progress. I showed him again real slow and with so much perseverence that you'll cry if you see me. And he said he understands. And 10 minutes later, he said "How again teacher?" and it's the 7th time i think...i was shaking with anger and I hit his wrist with my hand...I guess it was a bit hard and he cried...ugh! I am sooooo glad that day is over.

so besides bad days at work, I've been slacking most of the time... TV, internet, finished reading "New Moon", playing and taking care of my kitties (right now as I'm typing this, Kitty is sleeping and snuggling beside my bum on the couch, Tigger is sleeping next to my hips and Meow Meow is sleeping on the computer table.) Lol! I'm seriously a Mama Cat now...The 3 of them grew up so fast and they are healthy cherubs now...two week ago Meow Meow and Kitty had their antibiotic and Vit.C shots due to flu and Tigger had his fleas shot. Last friday, it was Meow Meow and Kittys' turn for fleas shots. Now, they are soooo healthy, with beautiful coats, and full of energy. :) They are the reason I stay at home so much now.

I can't wait for the next semester! I miss going to classes, assignments, my uni buddies, the uni drama, etc...I'm a nerd! :p As for my besties, Neetu is having her exam on June...Ros just finished her exam and still busy, while Adzai will be coming back to KK on June!!! I miss them sooooo too much...*sigh*

okies...I'm going to reupdate this in awhile...right now, I'm going to do some work oput with my hip hop dance routine DVD that I bought last year.. :) chow!

I should be thrown stone at and kicked at the head for that terrible offense... so Ros dear "Happy Belated Birthday again!"...you're my dear dear Bestie even if this shameful, low life friend forgotten about it on the real date. Can I ever be forgiven? *insert big animated eyes here*

Drowned, Surfaced, Drowned, Surfaced and the cycle goes on

I've been in a blurry world for a while...it's like my life is one of the very very soapy soap operas (with fair share of smiles, tears, frustrations, angers, fears, and indecisiveness) and I'm the potato couch watching my own life in both good and bad times. I was washed away deep into the middle of my treacherous sea of life, gasping for air, tired of holding on to my life and at one time almost drowned but somehow there's always someone or something that pull the heck out of me to the surface. I'm sooooooooooooo lost, yeah, just like TV series " LOST", so if you happen to see me wandering aimlessly like an Alzheimer patient (though I'm not), hope you'll kindly guide me to the right way. Okay before I further twist your mind and get you to a state where you'll actually drown me in the sea for confusing you soooooo much, let me update what actually happened to me these few day..as always there won't be sweetness before the bitterness...just like the cocoa fruit being bitter and turned into the mouth watering creamy, yummy, sinful choco that make our day.

First, my boyfriend went back to Korea. There, I've said it as bluntly as possible. We DIDN'T break up and promise to keep in touch through e-mails and he'll phone me once he reach there. Did he call me? A big FAT NO! It's been 3 days and not a single call. E-mails? I've e-mailed every single three days that had past. Nope, no replies. The reason he has to go back to Korea is because of financial difficulty here due to global economic crisis. So his "Abugi" (dad) ordered him to go home. Okay, I am for one very VERY VERY understanding. So I told him " Go ahead, go back, if it's the best for you...but before that what'll happen to us?". Being optimistic or indecisive or trying to kid himself, HE SAID " We'll still keep in touch, and he'll TRY to come back here, probably Sept but no promises.". Okay, so since I still believe in us, I thought why not give the long distance thing a shot. But deep down in my heart, I'm not the innocent child that believe everything is happy ending. Lots and lots of temptations and obstacles will come our way and we might even drift away temporarily or worst permanently. So no hard feelings, if we're meant to be we'll be brought back together by fate, If no, well let the life take its course. Well, no pain no gain right?! I've learn from my past experiences, that happy endings will not happen in a blink of an eye. It takes faith, time, lots and lots of problems, arguments, give and takes, and even break ups and make ups before we finally meet the one and only soul mate. So all I have to say to myself, is I'm young, my life not going to end just because a relationship not going to work, I've LOTS of people who actually do care, love, support, and believe in me, goals and ambitions in my life, stuffs I like to do, and God who'll always be my guiding light. So although I'm now in a "hanging" position with my boyfriend, I'll give it a year, if no contact and reasonable explanation for not contacting me as soon as possible, I'll consider our chapter close. Parting is such a sweet sorrow. But it makes us and me grow. Cheers to life ;)

Before my boyfriend went back to Korea, we had an early Valentine, and he gave me a set of Cecilia Ahern's books (the author of P.S I love you). I totally love the books. There are three of them and I'll write the reviews once I finish them. I've only read half one the book, entitled "Where the Rainbow Ends". I'm terribly busy currently with assignments, quizzes and coming midterms, so I guess I'll write the review of the first book during my mid sem break.

And every cloud has a silver lining. I actually had a nice valentine with my home tuition students, Shawna (Form 5) and Yaani (Form 3). Since Valentines day is on Saturday, there are only having Maths that day. So we cooked chicken bolognaise spaghetti together, had Sparkling apple wine (non alcoholic) and ice cream for dessert and watched Titanic movie before having tuition. We took some pics of the food and us. We had a blast, good food, lotsa laughter, and soapy movie together. Love ya girls ;) So here are some memories of the wonderful night:





And I miss Joanna!!!!!!!!! She went to KL since last Friday and will only be coming back tomorrow. Classes without her is weird and kinda sad without her for me. So there's only Earnest and me fending each other for our classes and we actually had some fun together, teasing and throwing sarcastic comments here and there in a good way. :D

As for today, I had Interpersonal class from 8 - 10 am. Earnest and me hardly pay attention (only at the beginning) due to not really understanding what the lecturer trying to say. We often figure out the notes by ourselves after doing some revision at home. So we end up "mengumpat" (criticizing badly) the lecturer. God, I don't how bad our karmas gonna accumulate. :D

The, we had quiz at 4 pm for Management in Leadership class. Both Earnest and me haven't studied. At least I had printed out the notes and he hadn't. So he went back home to print out notes and study. So I was left by myself in Unitar to study. Just as I was about to enter the library, my stomach was grumbling so I decided to grab some buns and drink from the bakery. ON my way to bakery, I've to pass the Mamak stall and I spotted Janet and Isabella, my other close unimates, having their brunch together with two other classmates. So I joined them and Bella who is also taking Management class with me decided for study group together. So after brunch, Bella and me went to Maktab Gaya KK library. After revising there for two hours, Bella dropped me back t Unitar before sending the car back to her pet sister (the owner of the car). So I went to the Uni's library and tried my best to revise more. After and hour or so, Bella joined me again in the revision and then we went to class together for the quiz. Bella and I got to know each other better today and we discovered that we live in the same area, Putatan. So we planned to go for jogs, study group, and maybe pilates class together on March.

I suddenly craved for something cooling and minty to ease my headache due to last minute study cram. So I texted Earnest to get me Yoyo or Easy way peppermint milky tea. Bless the boy, he woke up late from his nap and forgotten to buy the drink and left me "kemempunan" .He promised to make up for the drink on our Language and Theaters class on this Friday. As for the quiz, it's open book after all. So Bella, Earnest and me share notes and discussed and managed to get through the quiz. Hope the result will be okay. So note to self: No more last minute crams, prepare early!. My head was pounding like crazy all the way back home.

My aunt fetch me as usual, and we visited my youngest aunt's mother in law in the orthopedic ward in QE. Saw some hot docs! *heart shaped corneas* The poor darling dear slipped and broke her leg at home and admitted there. After the visit, we reached home around 6.10 pm and I quickly get ready for tutoring in the tuition centre which start at 7 pm. I made a quickie tuna sandwich and gobble it down before watering my stomach with soya bean and headed for work.

Well, tutoring went kinda well. A student actually had me lose my cool when he acted like a brat. So the rest of the class and him were stunned when they finally discovered my fiery side that I don't like to show much. You should see the sudden obedience and awe in their faces. Hehe! Don't mess with me when I have a pounding head like someone struck me over and over with a hammer. The kid apologized, which is good, and i became the cool and fun tutor again. :)

So now I'm back at home after tutoring. I've to finish off my research method assignment today and then I can hit the hay before going for office duty in the tuition centre at 8 am. Okay! Laters!!

What happened on Monday, 26/January/2009?

It is Chinese New Year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! weeeee..... and of course I'm happy because it's my ang pow receiving spree... (i know i'm shameless :D)

Well, my aunty Gee, my grandparents, and me went and visit my Aunty Vasanthi and her husband (a Chinese) in Kuala Penyu. We started our road trip at 9 a.m and reached there around 3 p.m. It was a nice trip and my first after many many years (I think the last time was when I was 9 years old). Thew family is warm and welcoming and the food was really great ( seafood!!!) and I was grinning happily with a plate of very little rice (i get indigestion because of rice), moderate veggies and a good helping of prawns... ((yup..I LOVE prawns!!!)) and the best part is ang pow...haha!!! My Chinese uncle's (Uncle Kiong) family and land is really spacious. They reared goats, fresh water fishes such as Talapia, and even cutie dogs. His brothers and sisters houses are all in the family land and they live stone throw away from each other. It's a fresh and lovely change from the city. We also visited Uncle Kiong's late father's grave to pay him some respects. I really hope to live in a countryside next time ^-^.

After Kuala Penyu, we went to Beaufort and Papar to visit some more family friends, and then attended a funeral in a family friend's house in Berunggis before visiting some KK friends' houses. So we reached home around 11pm. It was all in all a tiring but worthy journey for me. I took some pictures and there were some pictures of the river water overflowing the road due to the rainy season. I wish I had taken more pictures but most of the time I was captivated by the beauty of the countryside along the way, that I forgotten to take out my digi cam.


So here's the pictures that'll do most of the talking :)

At family friend's house in Beaufort. Their daughter, Shilvi and me, Selvi..almost
same

What happened on Sunday, 25/January/2009?

Hehe!! I'm such a slow updater.... well last Sunday and every Sunday is my off day from Uni and work. So instead of spending some quality at home and rest, i spent some quality time with oppa (my bf). Actually, I give home tuition in the morning on every Sunday from 8 a.m to 12 noon and I went out to see oppa at 2pm. We went to Centre Point and it was PACKED...freakingly PACKED with people doing last minute CNY shopping and of course PTIs (Illegal immigrants) here and there -.-;;;.

Well, oppa looked a lil withdrawn the whole time and had this "I'm going to drop on the floor anytime" look. Turned out that he slept very very late (not sure the exact time) due to watching several movies with his buddies. It's like karma to me because a few weeks back, I had the same look and mood when I went out with him due to sudden insomnia and I tell you, I was DEFINITELY not in a PRETTY MOOD that time and looked more like a BULLDOG. Well, at least he did not look like a bulldog last SundaY...PHEW.. :D. So all I have to say is...Karma is a Biatch. Anyway, we went for Japanese food and ate Torikatsu set (this rice, egg, and chicken fusion and udon soup noodles) and some sushis (Salmon and Tuna sushis) and no dessert. Why no dessert? The Japanese Restaurant is going to close (it's half day on Sunday and I did not know o.o;;) and so they rejected our request for dessert....in a polite way.. :D

Then , we went for to buy movie tickets. I wanted to watch Underworld (about vampires and werewolves) but the earliest schedule is FULLY booked. I gues
s people is still in TWILIGHT Craze. And oppa actually looked relief (he never EVER confessed he doesn't like horror thriller..so I guess I'll never know)...so we went for the second option, INK HEART. While queuing, there was this group of hooligans..i'm sure they are still in high school or dropouts, were rather rude trying to cut me off buying tickets. There were inches close to me and I got ready my basic self defense (um...kicking their d**k) which turned out that I don't have to since is beside me...so those hooligans didn't really try anything funny. So did we enjoy the movie? I know I did...but oppa spent the first 20 minutes in the toilet, 10 minutes watching the movie, and the rest dozing off beside me...actually no surprises...this is what had happened on our other movie dates. It's an escape for him to dreamland!! (I'm not complaining because at least he's there with me :D)

We had an hour before the movie starts, so went to Fun Square and played some games like Daytona, the basketball thing, shooting game and failed hopelessly in the game where we can get plushies. But we had fun ^-^ . At end of the date, he accompanied me PATIENTLY while I went to Watson to get some of my necessities. He really has patient with me because I'm really a pain in the a** when it comes to shopping. I take more than 15 minutes sometimes to make up my mind on which brand should I choose and so on and will have this last minute change of heart when I'm about to go to the cashier counter :) Then we went and bought some food for my aunt and for his roo
mmates and went home. I missed him almost immediately once we parted but I'm getting to be quite an expert to keep my love life and my other responsibilities apart and not messing up myself altogether. Thumbs up to me! :D

Here's my short review on the movie Ink Heart (but I still love AUSTRALIA so far for the latest movie...really2 worth it)
Ink heart is about people who can bring characters from a book to life just by reading the story out aloud and they are called "Silvertongue". So there's this Silvertongue by the name Mortimer (Mo) who lost his wife (Reesa) back when their daughter (Maggie) is just 8 years old by reading a bedtime story to Maggie and the title of the book is "InkHeart". The rule for the characters to come alive is this: A person on earth will be exchanged into the book for a character to come from the book to come alive into Earth. So the story revolve around Mo's challenges to get his wife back by the help of some good characters of Ink Heart whom he accidentally brought to life years ago (Mo didn't know he was a Silver tongue then)...and you should watch the movie for the rest....I'm lazy to go on with the review..hehe...pardon me...

So here's my list of fave top five latest movies...

1. Australia

2. Yes Man

3. Twilight

4.
Ink Heart
5. The body


and all time sucking movie is "The Spirit"...believe me...but you
don't have to really :p Bye bye!!!!

A moment of truth

I'M SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO STRESSED!!!!!! The youkai (demon) is attacking again!!! only my bffs knows what the youkai is...it's actually my FINAL EXAM -.- it's on the end of October...and just when i just finished my midterm this week...and 6 out of 7 of my assignments....*sigh*

well, bit by bit my life is filled with adult changes...more sweet sufferings than just plain vanity of pleasures...I'm starting to grow up...it's just like that...i woke up one morning, and i know what my aims in life are and what are my obstacles or pitstops that would distract my vision...right now, I feel the need to love myself more than ever...to see myself and congratulate myself...for always sticking to my principles and for friends who constantly remind me who i am when i tend to go out of my way...I'm feeling a terrible guilt towards God for actually not cherishing him everyday in my life when He forever lights my way and makes me stronger each day with diffrent kind of obstacles...I pledge that God will always be the first as i know He'll always make me clearheaded when it's starting to get cloudy and despairing... No more tears of waste but meaningful drops of changes and strength.... I will cherish my life as I know there's more to life than meets the eyes...

For my darling first love...i love him too much that i'm willing to let him go...now it's up to him if he wants me to stay but I know there would be no more regrets after this whatever the outcomes would be...life would go on..no turning back...more fresh experiences would be enlgihtened...I know...I'm a strong girl...I know and I am.

Well, now back to my short term goals... Completing my final exam for this semester and achieve my target of 4.oo pointer and obtained my scholarship...well...I will be strong and I will meet up with all the challenges in my life... Peace y'all!

What happened to Selvi?

Okay, i know it's been ages. Gosh, i'm sooooo stressed right now. I have two assignments due tomorrow. That's what you get for procrastinating...grr..this coming one week Raya hold, I pledge to organize my time as prefect as possbile..i still have 2 group assignments and 1 individual assignment due after Raya hol plus midterms.... *run amok*

Ok, besides my hopeless procrastination, I broke up with my ex boyfriend 1 and a half month ago. I guess the love was an illusion that time and i got confused. Finally, one day it just hit me that I couple with him out of pity. I decided not to hurt him further and finally call it off. I'm really really deep down from my heart, sorry, Kul.

And now, my first love begins...weeeeeeee....... I met him after a week breaking up with my ex. Thanks to a good friend, Glyn, we got each others' number and got to know each other more. After two weeks of SMSing, we finally went out for our first date. And guess what we hit it off! A few more dates happened, and we know right from the start we're in love. This time i know it's true love. I miss him all the time, can't wait to get his call and sms and see him. When i can't sleep at night, he tend to sms me out of the blue...and not a day passed without me thinking of him. Pictures? coming soon...i keep on forgetting my camera on dates, so we only have pictures of us in his handphone. By the wya, he's a Korean, 26, and his b'day is just a day after me (8th May 1982). Teehee!!!

Besides having a big smile on my face and heart shaped corneas, I'm working and studying my ass off too. I rejoined my part time job in Fashion Story on July, giving home tuition to 4 students and an English conversational tuition to a Korean tour guide. Plus my subjects in Uni are becoming more demanding with the little time I have for studying. But I know, I can do it!!!!! Focus and study smart! Jia yu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well, I've moved to Taman Bersatu, Putatan since one week ago and I just got my Celcom Broadband yesterday. Yay!!!! Internet!! Facebook, Researches, Friendster, Online music, Youtube, and more!!! How much I missed you all!!!

Okay, I need to crack my skull on my assignments now. Till the next update...chow!
