no fun on Feb 14th 2012 for me

Although I don't celebrate Valentine's Day but ever since I was 15, I would plan to do something fun on that day. since everyone seems to be all lovey-dovey. I thought i'ld share some friendship love with my friends.
I would either go out with my friends or have them over for dinner and just chill and laugh around.
However, this year. I don't think there's gonna be any fun mojo going on, on the 14th. It's a weekday and i would be tired by the time i get home, also i'ld have to get up early the next day for work. It's not the same like back in uni where my friends & I would sleep at 4 or 5am because we are still at my room laughing our asses off and we would all make it to our 9am lecture.
Damn, i really miss those days. boo~

I'll just hope it's going to be a fine day then.

no spongebob, not this time. :|

A story about a ...

"guess" what this post will be about.. LOL

So, I had a group coursework when i was in my 2nd year. There were four of us in the group and one of the group members is a guy from Ukraine. The first time when my other group member introduced him to the rest of us, he just gave a hello, no smile, no shaking hands and straight away sat down. I got the impression that he's not a fun type then. BUT I WAS WRROONNGGG.

After that first time of us all knowing who is who, we had our first group meeting and i guess he warmed up himself with the group. The following meetings after that he will always do something that never fails to make me laugh. He is such a fun person to be with! I never look forward for group meetings u see cause it's always so serious and stressful but for this particular group coursework, i look forward to it every time. It is a bit stressful sometimes but he lightens up the seriousness. :)

He is also a gentleman. The act of chivalry was always there. He will never fail to open the door for me. Even when he is walking behind me, he will try to hold the door by reaching out his hand. Once, after our meeting, I was walking behind him and he suddenly stop midway. so i stopped too, then he asked me to walk in front cause it's not nice if he walks in front of me. I decided to just walk beside him instead. :p

There was this one time where he asked whether i know the theme song for Star Wars, the Darth Vader theme to be exact. So i said yea n he asked me to sing the tune and i did. While i was singing the tune, he made some sounds. I thought he wanted me to stop so i did. But then he asked me why i stopped, he was doing the sound effects of the light sabers! LOL. So i had to continue. hahahaha. our other group member who was in front of us, just shook his head when he heard us doing the star wars thingy (this guy is the serious one in the group).

Once when we were at the computer lab, we were talking about how long our names were. SO he said whenever he's at the immigration counter, the officers will just look for a short while and let him pass cause his name is just too long they couldn't be bothered. hahha. and he showed me his passport (who on earth brings their passport everywhere they go yea.. hahaha comel gila) and u know how our passport pictures are young pictures of us right? so he looked so young in that picture and very good looking too! so i blurted out "WOW! You look so ..... young!" the truth is, i almost blurted out "WOW! You look so hot!" HAHAHAHAH. nasib baik aku tak ckp tuh.

Also, once, one of the group members were not in a good mood. she was really sad about something so i started singing the song Don't Worry Be Happy and i stopped midway (well i wouldn't want to sing the whole song right?) but he continued the song! ahahhaha.

I had a crush on this guy. (can't u tell?!?!) HEHEHE. I am not in contact with him anymore. In my 3rd year, we didn't take the same subjects so I didn't see him anymore after my 2nd year. But i am glad that I've met such a person. He is very nice and he makes me laugh all the time. I love those two attributes in a guy. Having good looks is a major plus. this crush of mine, well, good looking la. my friends said he looks like a model. hohoho. but kalau muka ada tapi hati takder buat apa kan? especially those good looking guys who will always make friends with good looking girls je or they know they're good looking so they act arrogantly. menyampah gila.
I miss having such a person, like this crush i'm talking about, in my life.

Here in Malaysia, it's so difficult to find a guy who will actually hold the door for you or even let you pass through the door first. They were not taught of this chivalry acts. I mean, letting you through first is the least that they can do. I'm not saying there's none... ada la. tapi sikit sangat.

I want someone like the guy whom i had a crush on when i was in my 2nd year cause I was never sad at that time. Even if I was stressful or sad, it will go away quickly.

First friend to get married!!!!

Last Saturday, my friend, Syukri got married to his high-school sweetheart, Aizan.
They make such a good couple! Really complement each other I must say.
So he was my first friend to get married!!!
Congratulations again Syuk & Aizan!!!!
I was super excited and so were my two other girl friends who went to the wedding with me.
We couldn't help but cheer his name when we saw him with his wife in the golf cart as their transportation to the wedding hall. It was held at a Golf club btw. hehe.
I hope Aizan didn't mind that. bet she must be thinking who are those groupies. hoho.

A picture of my friends & I with the raja sehari :) They were smiling all the time!
hahahhah. happy betul ye :)

I had the chance to meet my friends from KYUEM too! It was soooo nice!
Everyone was just so happy to see each other. I haven't met some of them for 5 years!
oh it was just so nice to meet old frens.
We were all so excited and most of our conversations would just end abruptly and continue to another person. hahaha. limited time yea. macam speed dating BUT NOT.
So, i guess i will be seeing them again for another friend's wedding!
let's see who's next on the line! hahaha!
I know my chaletmate back in college will get married either mid or end of this year.
mini college reunion again! yeay!!
:p

p/s: so i found out that one of my friends, stalk my blog. hahaha. shouldn't have told me!
so here's a shout out to him if he's reading this! HI NAZRI!!!! *wave wave :D

My favourite pearl tea!


So, before this I had my tutti frutti phase where every now n then it's FROYO TIME!!!
Froyo = Frozen Yogurt (just in case some doesn't know what it stands for.. hehe)

Nowadays it's always Chatime!!
Thanks to my friend, Yana who introduced me to Chatime a few months back.
I loved it since. wheee!

Chatime sells pearl tea or bubble tea. you can drink anything that they serve and just ask for the pearls/bubbles to be included in the drink! Those pearls are made from tapioca starch btw (i just found out myself.. a few secs ago. LOL)

My favourite has to be their Hazelnut Chocolate Milk tea with pearls!
loooovee it. I've never tried other flavours besides hazelnut choc and superior pure cocoa.

Booyakasha!

I actually tried bubble tea ages ago when i was a small kid but i hated it cause it tasted so artificial, like powdered flavour and just add water. but this time it's totally different!

This pearl tea never fails to make me happy n bubbly! like! :)

A new year

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!

2011 was awesome. I hope that 2012 will be as awesome or even better than awesome...
be-awesome!!! (it means beyond awesome btw) hehe.

I celebrated the new year at the curve together with the Funky Munkies.
For those of you who doesn't know who the Funky munkies are.. well, it's just a name that my friends and I came up with to call our group. We came up with it when we were 15 and it's stuck till now. hahaha. It was the first time that the munkies celebrated new year together so it was great!

The fireworks display at The Curve was just spectacular!!! I LOVE IT. (the picture above is not the one frm The Curve) I was just so awed by the fireworks that I didn't bother to get my camera out. It's now a sweet memory! hehe. they had this new firework thingy going on that i've never seen before cause it's similar to the chinese red fireworks.. u know the one that goes.. pompompompompompompompompom!!! quickly. yesss that one. hehe. but this one was just bigger and up in the sky. It was just awesome i tell u!
And the fact that I got to watch it with my close friends... i was just happy :)

I LOVE FIREWORKS!! :p

My friend's car broke down on the way back to another fren's apartment. huhuhu.
our other fren had to drive back and pick us up.
and then the next morning, the toilet door was locked frm the inside (someone accidentally locked it and shut the door i guess) so we had to use the end of a can opener to pick it open. hahahah.
way to welcome the new year ha. hoho.

oh well, cheers for 2011! and for more exciting moments to come! May god bless us all :)

MTP site visits!!!

As you know, (if u don't well now u know :p) I'm now a Management Trainee in Sime Darby. So for the first two weeks, we had site visits and also team building camp.

I would like to talk about the Site visits that I went to. It was awesome!
we went to all 6 divisions tho I won't be talking about all 6. booosan nanti. hahaha.

Plantation: we went to sime darby plantation and I got to see up close how the buah kelapa sawit looks like and hold it. ok, for the record, i always see this sime darby plantation sign by the road side yea. and yes i do know it's all palm trees. oil palm but i've never got to hold the huge big fruit before. so it was cool. we also visited the refinery, their R&D and the mills. the smell is a bit funky tho at the refinery. gave me a slight headache. haha. bet the people who work there are all immune to the smell.

Motors: at motors, daaaammnnn it was freaking cool. So we heard a rumor that we will be going to visit Porsche but then the bus dropped us off in front of Hyundai instead. we were quite sad about that. then one of us asked the guy who was giving the presentation at Hyundai whether we're goin to Porsche and he said "what?! nooo. u are not. just hyundai." then his boss came in and blurted out "when are they going to porshe?" hahahahha he was like winking like crazy to ohis boss but too late! we knew we were heading to Porsche after that. everyone got all hyped up about it after that. at Porsche, we all wanted a test drive but we couldn't. so we thought, fine at least we got to go to porsche and check out all the bad ass cars. then after the presentation at porsche, we had a tour around and we were told to go to the pre-delivery inspeciton area 2 km away. then the woman in charge told us that there's 2 cayenne and one panamera here, choose
which car u want to ride in and we're good to go. we were all speechless like.. wait.. what did she say. so i asked her "are u serious?" and she was like YES. woot!!!! ahahahaha. i got into the cayenne S and on the way back i rode in the panamera. obviously we didn't get to drive the cars but good enough!!! porsche road trip! hahaha. we felt sooooo cool. :p

Industrial: at industrial, another awesome experience!!! I got to drive a Wheel Loader!!! i don't have the picture me driving it, cause it's with the HR lady but this is a wheel loader.

voila! hahah i was super excited to drive this big baby. felt sooo happy after that.

So, that's it. right now i'm in my first job rotation with Sime Darby Industrial under Tractors Material Handling. haven't started work yet as when i came in they were about to for their own team building camp, so i had to join (i just got back yesterday, it was beyond awesome) but that i shall save for another post, a whole different story! I'm super tan now. anyhoo, tomorrow will be the first day of working life!!!! woot!!!

GANBARIMASU!!!!!

p/s: really need to get some pictures!!! all words and no interesting pictures are making me feel bored with my own blog. :(
