So the day that I've been waiting for is finally here...

Happy birthday to me,
Happy birthday to me,

Thanks for all ya' wishes! Thanks to 5S2 who gave me a card... I'm flattered... Thanks to dolly who made a post for me. Thanks to all choir members who wished me last night, while eating Nasi Lemak.. =_= Thanks to all my family, cousin and friends. And, yea, to yyv, boyfriend?! That's the best you could think of when wishing me a Happy Birthday...?? =_=

17 is really a huge year for me.

So, Happy Chinese New Year to all!

Nick Jonas and his Amazing Voice!

Really, I'm not offending anyone or anything, but I truly think that Nick has a better voice before than he have now...

Here are some songs from his own debut album, Nicholas Jonas, which I truly love and find it meaningful... Oh, and these songs are written by his dad, Kevin Jonas.

Wrong Again http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9ZbUX9AnHU&feature=related

Wrong again
Father I hate to tell you this
You taught me how to hit the mark
and once again I missed
Touch the fire
You always said that I'd get burned
Why is it so hard to remember
All the lessons I have learned?

How can you look at me that way
When I have failed so many times
Showing me love you tell the world
this child is mine
How can you walk that extra mile
I see forgivness in your smile
So sure you'd reject me
Wrong again.

Once again
Lord I have wandered from your path
thought I knew a better way
falling short of what you've asked
standing here
I don't deserve a second chance
and I can't conceal the shame I feel
it's more than I can stand

How can you look at me that way
When I have failed so many times
Showing me love you tell the world
this child is mine
How can you walk that extra mile
I see forgivness in your smile
So sure you'd desert me
Wrong again.

When I look into your face
and see the power of your grace
I find it so hard to believe
forgivness that you're showing me
I see the answer in your eyes
Love and mercy realised
Finally the truth has set me free

How can you look at me that way
When I have failed so many times
Showing me love you tell the world
this child is mine
How can you walk that extra mile
I see forgivness in your smile

I thought you would scold me
instead you just hold me
Thought you would judge me
instead you just love me
so sure you'd reject me
wrong again

I Will Be The Light http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dGCD_pzyZY&feature=related [I've been thinking that this song will be suitable for a graduation ceremony..]

I can see it in your eyes
Tell me what's on your mind
Don't keep it all inside
I am here for you(I am here for you)
Did somebody bring you down
Turn your smile into a frown
I'll help you work it out
When the answers hard to find
I will give you peace of mind

When you need a friend to call
I'll be right there beside you
To shelter you and guide you
On this you can rely(this you can rely)
When the tear drops start to fall
I will be there to dry them
Before you can cry them
And on the darkest night
I will be the light
I will be the light
Do-do-do-do-do-do

You can share your secrets here
There's no need to be afraid
My love will never change
It's unconditional (its unconditional)
Look at the door to your heart
Knocked down and torn apart
I'll help you make a start
And build it up again
I will shine the light within

When you need a friend to call
I'll be right there beside you
To shelter you and guide you
On this you can rely(this you can rely)
When the tear drops start to fall
I will be there to dry them
Before you can cry them
And on the darkest night
I will be the light
I will be the light
Do-do-do-do-do-do

Everbody's searching for somebody to believe in
Everybody needs someone to care
A shoulder you can cry on
A love you can rely on
Reach out and touch me if you can
Just take my hand

When you need a friend to call
I'll be right there beside you
To shelter you and guide you
On this you can rely(this you can rely)
When the tear drops start to fall
I will be there to dry them
Before you can cry them
And on the darkest night
I will be the light
I will be the light
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do

No rain(no rain)
No rain(no rain)
No storm is ever gonna stand in my way
No ones(no ones)
To blame(to blame)
Hold on I'll be there to carry the weight
No rain(no rain)
No rain(no rain)
No storm is standin my way
No ones(no ones)
To blame
Hold on
I"ll be there to carry the weight

Joy To The World (A Christmas Prayer) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiLzuBkjMTA&feature=related

Every year at Christmas
All I can see
Are pictures of the things I want
Around the tree
But this year's a little different
I'm not thinking of myself
So my prayer for this Christmas
Is for somebody else
So I pray...

Joy To the World
Peace for every boy and girl
Hope when life is hard
Light when everything seems dark

God I know you're listening
And you can hear
The need of every broken heart
And all their tears
I don't have a lot to offer
Just this one simple prayer
That this Christmas everyone would know
Somebody cares...
So I pray...

Joy To the World
Peace for every boy and girl
Hope when life is hard
Light when everything seems dark

I pray that every hungry soul
Will be filled and will be warm
That not a single, solitary child
Would suffer harm
And wars would find their ending
As we take another view
My hope is that this Christmas prayer
Would somehow come true

I pray...
Humanity would rise
And join with me
And together we'll sing

Joy To the World (To all the world)
Peace (Peace) for every boy and girl (for every boy and girl)
(Talking bout hope) Hope when life is hard (when life is hard)
Light when everything seems dark

I pray that (I pray) every hungry soul
Will be filled and will be warm
(Not a single child) That not a single, solitary child
Would suffer harm
And wars would find their ending
As we take another view
My hope is that this Christmas prayer
Would somehow come true...

Joy To the World
Peace for every boy and girl



Take a look at these lyrics! It touches my soul and heart. =') I hope that Nick and his Dad would write songs like that again...

Sunjar!!!!

I've been wanting this for months since I saw it in http://www.ixiqi.com/ and have literally gone crazy and won't stop looking for it until I get my hands on that cool stuff! It's so cool and I love things that can Glow in the Dark!!

To those who has been to my room, you can see a ceiling full of glow in the dark stars... Yea, I've been jumping up and down my bed just to get them on the ceiling...

So, about this Sunjar, it's a product from Suck UK. It cost RMB269 = RM134.50, which I saw from a China website. If it includes shipping fees and postage, it'll cost me more than RM200!

Therefore, I did some research on the web. Looking for a place that sells it cheaper. I found some US sites which is definitely cheaper, about $14.90 = RM44.70. But! Again! The shipping is the problem... It's about $220, the cheapest, without insurance and no guarantee that you will receive it, from the US to Malaysia.. =_=

Not giving up!!!

So, I went to Yahoo to seach for Sun Jar Malaysia. And yesh! I've found what I wanted to. But it's not exactly what I wanted to look for. The nearest country that sells this lovely Sun Jar is... Singapore... It cost $59 for just one colour (Blue OR Amber Red) and $69 for dual colours in one jar. Considered cheap la... Compared to those that I've found on the previous websites.
But, I'm not sure that my dad will allow me to buy this or buy this for me... =_= So, I might as well give up my hope.. Until it comes to Malaysia, I won't be able to have it... *sobs!!!*

Here are some pictures of my, soon to be, darling:

1. You can see the solar powered battery under the lid.
2. In the daytime, it absorbes SUN light for 5 hours and it can shine for hours.
3. In the dark! Gorgeous babies~~
4. Again! My darling to be....
Haha... Day Dreaming~ Unless some of you went to Singapore and saw it and buy it for me, I'll be glad to pay you... But unless you wanna give it to me as a gift, I insist... =P Just in case, I want the Sun Jar (Dual Colour).
Thanks!!! =)

Coffee, Tea, or me? =P

Don't get startled by the title! I just want to write about coffee and tea today... Hehe...

I wasn't really a coffee addict before, and also not one now. But I love the aroma of coffee rather than the taste of it. If you want me to drink Kopi O, or black, black, black and blacker coffee, I won't give you a face that would probably look like this... XP *bluek!*

Although I'm not really a coffee expert and have not taste all the coffee in the world, yet, the coffee I liked the most is Latte... Green tea latte, toffee nut latte, vanilla latte... Too bad, Toffee Nut Latte is only avaible in the month of Christmas... But to be specific, I like Frappicino! Know why? It's because... of the CREAMMM!!! It's like Ice-blended coffee. But if you give me a latte, a hot latte, I'll drink it all up nonetheless...

I'm not really a Starbuck's kaki, but I think I will be glad to work in Starbuck's as a past-time barista... Being able to be surrounded by the awakening aroma and maybe make my own cup of coffee!!!

I haven't been buying cups and cups of Starbuck's, but whenever the rich Joyce spends her money there, all I can do shake my head and think, "My, my! Budak ni memang anak orang kaya!!!" Normal and "not-so-rich" people don't go buying Starbucks once they pass Starbucks! Haha! But I sometimes, i can't resist it! Joyce said I'm addicted, but I can swear that I'm not! Well, at least, not yet... =P But, Starbucks! Sigh! We need lotsa $$$$ to be able to be enjoying that or be able to step into the store.

But! There's a really rare and golden promotion on a Thursday 2 weeks ago, which was on New Year's day when I, actually, went shopping... Actually, I was being dragged there. =_= Buy 1 promotional drink (of the season), which was a Christmas drink (Toffee Nut Latte, Dark Cherry Mocha Frappicino or something like that, and another one which I can't remember), FREE ONE!!! BUY ONE, FREE ONE! How queer! Haha... I wonder if the manager of Starbuck's just stroke a billion dollar lottery... =_= So, how can we miss this GOLDEN OPPURTUNITY?!

Therefore, another friend who I guess wasn't much of a coffee addict herself, bought one Venti (medium sized) Toffee Nut Frappicino and I got another one for FREE! Actually, we split the price. So it's quite reasonable and cheap for a Starbuck's coffee... 50% discount! How can I not resist?!

For tea... I love Passion Fruit Tea, Iced Lemon Tea, Iced Peach Tea and Green Tea... Chinese tea is considered okay for me. Another genius drink, which according to somewhere I read, were invented by us Chinese! =) Brilliant! It is said that an Emperor was drinking water/hot water one day when a leaf flew into his cup and ta-da! Tea!

I can say that I drink tea quite often. Not because I want to, but it's because of my Dad or Mum. Whenever we have breakfast, lunch or even breakfast outside, we are not allowed to order any other drinks and my dad will bring his jar of tea and make everyone of us tea. =_= It's somehow like a tradition. But if the tea jar is at home, then we'll at least or soy milk or 凉茶. Hehe... So I have been drinking tea ever since.

I've seen people drinking cold Chinese Tea. Weird?! Chinese tea's supposed to be drink HOT! How can you put ice in it? Wouldn't it be like... only drinking water? Like my crazy little brother who will put ice in his hot soup, complaining that it's too hot for him to drink.. =_= Gosh! Weirdos...

Tagged the Nth time...

Thanks to my childhood penpal, Vivienne, I have to spill out my werid habits and all the weirds stuff.. Man, this will take me some time. Here goes!

5 Weird Habits

1. I prefer to use blue pens rather the black ones. But still, pencils are the best! I'd prefer using black pens on Mathematics Examintion Papers. It makes me feel that I'm using my pencil and love to do maths with pencil because I usually don't do the whole thing right once. Then I'll have to "liquid" the whole answer and start over! Won't it be better using the eraser to do that?

2. I will feel tired once I think that I am and will feel that my eyes will go from alert state to sleeping state in 1 minute... Especially in classes... =P

Bah.. I really dunno what weird habits, normal facts and little known facts about me... =_= i have some habit that me myself don't realize... So you tell me! Will be glad to know it from you guys...

ps: I've got hands on Leehom's latest album! I'm lovin' it!!! <3

First day of School!

Alas! The 1 month ++ holiday is over before you can say "Yippee!"!

I think this was the most boring holidays ever! And since it's my last year to really enjoy the year end holidays, it's kinda... You know, sucks.. I didn't get to go anywhere except Genting and not even for a holiday! T.T 6 days of Hell Camp, some days of caroling and choir practice, 1 hour per week of 2 piano classes, and the rest of the holiday.... Floating around doing almost nothing in particular... =_= This is bad...!

Yesterday, fortunately and unfortunately, haha! I got slightly feverish and dizzy and feels like the energy and all my strength have seeped out of my body... But I still have to attend choir practice from 9am to 12am, 2pm to 6pm in Chong Hwa, KL! Teacher didn't seem to notice that I've almost died singing and when I was crazily thinking about my soft, feathery bed at home and can't wait to take a nap and thinking about the killing pain in my muscles, she told me to smile when I sing... Gosh! Like I can do that... When I'm sick! =_=

Okay, before I go on, for those who are interested in buying concert tickets to watch our performance in 21/2 [精武体育馆, KL] or 28/2 [兴华独中, Klang], please feel free to contact me!! Tickets: RM17 (Below 18), RM33 (Above 18)

Oh my! I hate this time before the concert! Everyone have to dig for money like crazy! And this time, it's gone crazier than ever! Each single human being, need to finish selling 20 RM17 tickets and 10 RM33 tickets and need to collect a donation of RM700, per person!!!! @_@ For someone like me who isn't thick skinned enough to go and ask people for donations or even some money, how am I going to get through this period of pure hell!! Even when I want to ask my teacher whether she wanted to get some tickets, I've spend almost the whole 20 mins car ride from home to school to think about what to say! Rephrasing the sentence each time to see which sounds better... Argh! So please! Support us!! I'll give you a million thanks!

So, first day back to school, and will be the last "First day of school" I'll ever be experiencing in my "beloved" Kwang Hua! One word: Bored...

I was not feeling to well and having a new haircut, many said that I looked cute and "younger"... Really? Well, I'm being a courteous little lady and say, Thank you! =p

Classes will start 10 mins earlier this year and end 10 mins earlier. No new faces in class since all of 4S2 just moved to 5S2..

After the election of class committees and boring school assembly, which again, I've slept through the whole of it, again, we have been sitting in class chatting away like long lost friends. Like last year, and the year before, and the year before, and the year before , I've been sitting in the first row. Yea, if you've calculated, it's Form 1 till 5... Ironic, isn't it? It's not that I wanted to be the teacher's pet, but there's no where else to sit since I don't come very early to school each year... So Dolly reserved a place for me, and "what a coincidence!" it's the first row, and yes, it's directly in front of the teacher and yes, it's directly in front of the blackboard which will "snow" chalk every time they clean the board! And for someone like me who haven't got a very healthy nasal organ or should I say respiratory system, I shouldn't be sitting in that "strategic" little seat I've got there. I have past records of having slight asthmatic problems... Sigh!

What bothers me the most is, whether I should or should not take up EST (English Science and Technology) which is a really useless subject, but easy to score an A in SPM. The pros and cons are, first, I should stay back from Monday to Wednesday till 2.10pm... And the better reasons are because I wouldn't really have a problem scoring an A in EST. But LAZINESS! Ugh! You know how it can take over you! But, eventually, after Dolly's little "lecture", I decided to ignore my laziness and be a little more hardworking. After all, it's just a few 10 to 9 months! *faints!*

The last year in Kwang Hua! What a relieve! And also, what a sad thing! Say bye to all the desk and chairs that you have been sitting from form 1 to 5, all the "evil"-but-nice teachers who have sacrificed their time and soul for us monkeys of 1992 (or should I say Goat for me), all the delicious canteen food, all the flowers, trees and every pinch of grass their is, all the rock and soils of our Kwang Hua... Haha!

But, I've received some pretty shocking news!
1. My Chinese teacher's little sister has got breast cancer... Pray for her well-being!
2. There are rumours that we can only go for our drivers license at the "rotten-ripe" age of 21!

Okok, so before I go, I have to promise myself and maybe, make a vow or something, to not touch the computer for more than twice a week! For the sake of SPM, I must commit to my vows and declarations! =P Wish me luck on controlling this "uncontrollable" urge of mine!

Taz!
