Go simple.

Ahhh screw it~
I'm not going to do any html thing on my blog template anymore.
It's killing!
So this is the one. Simple theme.

Finally, after a month, my blog is no longer under maintenance. =)
It's back! Tadaa!
Little Lulu + Lulu-ness.
Straight to the point. =P


And, i've brought along another big news of mine. Guess what?

I passed my driving test!

With faulty though. -_-
Could have failed on the road..
Engine died TWICE when i was driving up a steep slope (steeper than the one inside) leading to a junction. *guilty*

Oh well. Not that i'll be driving manual cars anymore right? Hehe.
No more clutch. Whee! I can drive myself to Monash already..
(since i'm actually supposed to drive myself there, coz nobody can fetch me.. not even my parents.)

Moreover, my dad has bought a 2nd hand myvi from his friend's son - who used to car pool with us - for me to drive to uni.
So basically, I used to sit in that car last year.
But from this year onwards, i'm gonna drive it myself.
It's like.. my car already! *drools*
It's not though.... But still cool right? hehe.

I believe i can drive...
But no, I'm still bad at roads and directions. @.@

It's all coming back

Happy new year, everyone!

I know it's already the 14th day of the new year, but anyway. This is my first post of 2010's, i want to start with a greet =P


The fact is, i am still on holiday, but, for quite a long period, i didn't go out.
Why?

There are several answers for this. Related answers.

1. The most well-known reason of Liew Yen Yee for not going out: the stupid transport problem. -_-

2. Therefore, in order not to give myself the depression of 'being imprisoned at home', i do everything that can make me feel good. All sorts of random things that can make me go "Hey! This is what you can do freely at home during holidays! Isn't it great? =D" and frankly, i do enjoy doing all this.

3. I'm currently obsessed with this Taiwanese drama called Time Story (光阴的故事 in Chinese) and i think it's the main reason that lasts me in the i'm-enjoying-myself-at-home mood for so long. Seriously, it's one of the best Taiwanese dramas i've ever watched! *thumbs up*

4. Is it because i have been home for too long? There were moments when i crave for isolation; i didn't feel like contacting anyone. Maybe i was trying to get myself emotionally prepared for a new life when uni starts?

Also may it be that i'm trying to escape from the fact that i am leaving my dear college mates real soon.

And i realize the statement above only when i finally get to see them again. Which happened today.

Everything went as our usual outings: a very random plan to go out, the lucky me to have them picking me up from home (a big thank you!), those lame jokes, childish fights, and the fun of being ourselves around each other.

Hence, all my silly efforts of being isolated are melted down. It all comes back in a package - just when i thought i can let go of it quite coolly. Now i'm not sure if i still can. I could've probably lied to myself.

Soon, 3 of them will be going to Aussie, 1 not sure where to go yet, while another one can still meet me in uni, taking different course.

I can hardly become expressive using English; you all know that.

I tried my best on the blog. This post in particular.

It's amazing how i can become good friends with you all with such a problem. XP

I'M GONNA MISS YOU GUYS LOADS!! I'm actually starting to miss already.

Holidays with Morrie

Two more days to the end of year 2009. Wow.
And i'm not prepared for year 2010. Well, not really prepared.

Come to think of it. I'm turning 19 next year? NINETEEN? Gawd, that sounds old. (didn't mean to offend anyone older than me.. lol.. old among teenagers alright) Besides, my 18th birthday had just passed a month, and i'm going to be 19 years old in a few more days? Sigh. Oh well.

* * *

Holidays have been nice although the things i've been doing don't seem very interesting.. haha.

Currently reading this book of Mitch Albom called "Tuesdays with Morrie". It talks about "an old man, a young man, and life's greatest lesson" ( as you can see from the book cover =P). It's indeed a very inspiring book. Quite a thin book - not thick at all - but i'm reading it very slowly, trying to digest every meaningful line as deeply as i can.


This a part of the book that i like very much:

One afternoon, I am complaining about the confusion of my age, what is expected of me versus what I want for myself.
"Have I told you about the tension of opposites?" he says.
Tension of opposites?
"Life is a series of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing, but you are bound to do something else. Something hurts you, yet you know it shouldn't. You take certain things for granted, even when you know you should never take anything for granted.
"A tension of opposites, like a pull on a rubber band. And most of us live somewhere in the middle."
Sounds like a wrestling match, I say.
"A wrestling match." He laughs. "Yes, you could describe life that way."
So which side wins, I ask?
"Which side wins?"
He smiles at me, the crinkled eyes, the crooked teeth.
"Love wins. Love always wins."


And these:

"Everyone knows they are going to die, but nobody believes it."

"Once you know how to die, you know how to live."


You see. How can a holiday be boring with such a meaningful book? It makes me think of how i have been doing all these times, how to live life to the fullest, what are my dreams and what i can do in order to pursue them, what's the correct attitude towards life and so on.

I feel enriched, yet i'm still looking for the answers.

emo

It's funny how things go.

I'm gonna get out of it. Completely out of it..


.. someday..

New Skin!

I got a new template for this blog! haha..

Spent the whole day (yesterday) doing this.. A 'great' way to kill time.. and to kill my brain cells too. Sigh, i thought it would be easy to have a nice template.. but it turns out that i have to edit html myself and it won't be as convenient as before.

Guess it's the price i have to pay for beauty? Haha. So just take it~

It's not completely done though.. I dunno how to put the blog links.. And i'm gonna do it next time coz i had it enough doing this thing the whole day. I need a break from this.

Anyway, i'm here just to announce about the new look of my blog.. Hoping that it'll make a good start for the new chapters of my life story.

Happy reborning, blog! =P

And thank you, Wen Jia and CK for helping out!

..18..

~Happy Birthday, Sarah~
hope you still smile like this often =)

Guess it's too late to blog about the graduation day as what i promised in the previous post.. *sorry*

Feel like blogging about my birthday too, but it's already one week after my birthday, so the urge to blog is already fading.. -.-


Anyway, I am happy that i got to celebrate my birthday with family and friends and received presents from you all. Received many wishes. Even got some surprises. This is quite an unconventional birthday for me to have.

So, i'm here to thank all of you for making my 18th birthday a sweet one! Really appreciate it.

*gonna post the photos of my presents if got the chance..*





......




OMG.


I realise how boring this post is, how bored i am and how lazy i am to blog. LOL.


come slap me if u can x_x
the aimless, nothing-good-to-do mode is killing me

I'm finally back!

Hello there... It's been so long since i last updated. I'm sorry, blog!

Apparently my finals are over.. in other words, I'm done with college already. And now I'm on a 4-months-holiday (if i'm going to Monash next year). University is starting by the end of February 2010. I know.. super duper looongg, right? My longest holiday ever..

Anyway i got quite many things to blog about... but i'm kinda lazy to write a lot =P
So, here we start~


1. Goodbye, college!!
My classes ended on the day before finals started. So us Muffins ( aka MUFY-ians) brought camera to college and camwhored like mad..

For more photos, go check out my facebook~

I'm just liking the MUFY life. I know we all do. Will miss the yellow table area in the campus where most of us used to be spending our break times; Rock Cafe, 'Orange', 'Pink' and 'White' restaurants where we used to have lunch at; the drink stall (it's a van, actually) selling micheal jackson (it's actually soya cincau); and everything that reminds me of college life!

And, of course, more importantly, i'll miss all my friends and lecturers i've met here~ All the best in the future! The end of college doesn't mean the end of our friendship =)


2. I missed out KC people in college!
It was the day when i had my Accounts and Maths exams. My high school Sr3 people (which includes some of my ex-classmates, and i know most of them) came to visit Sunway University College! Too bad i missed out the chance to meet them.. They passed by the exam hall when I was on my way from the foyer. hmph.. there's no big deal anyway XD


3. MILO CINCAU~
This is like the biggest joke I've ever come across in a restaurant.
After exam, we were having lunch at rock cafe when Xian Hor and I tried to order drinks from the guy from drinks stall. In fact I've ordered already but it never comes after a long wait. So i called the guy again.

Me: Tadi saya sudah order milo ais tapi belum datang lagi.
Xian Hor: Tambah lagi satu cincau..
The Guy: *nods* walked away without saying a word*

Five minutes later, another guy approached us with A CUP of MILO ICE MIXED WITH CINCAU.

-0-

I can't remember our reactions. I only remember that i was totally speechless and I felt so funny at the same time. Too bad i don't have the photo of the cup of "milo cincau". Maybe you can imagine the feeling if you get to see the cup of drink.

The Other Guy: Saya tak tau, tadi kawan saya kata 'milo cincau' saya pun buatlah milo cincau~
There you go.

The funniest thing is, when i looked at the receipt, there it really printed

"Milo Cincau - RM2.00".

Normal milo ice costs RM1.80.

I'm speechless again..

In the end, Xian Hor decided to drink it coz he was desperate for a drink after eating curry mee..


4. Exams
Exams are okay after all... Except for chemistry. Sigh.. now I seriously doubt if i can meet the requirements for Monash Pharmacy. I think i can meet the total marks required but.. Chem B - 80 and above? I screwed up the paper when my internal mark is so low, and i'm depending on the exam paper to push up my marks.

80 and above? Let's hope for a miracle. ><
Keeping my fingers crossed until the 10th of December..


5. Outings~
These few days had been kinda exhausting. Went out with
Ying Ying

Jiun Jie

Nutserlar

and CK

on the 13th.
As what I've promised Nutserlar, we got to sing k together =) She has a very amazing voice! Really enjoyed it.
At night, some of the Muffins had a steamboat buffet dinner at Yuen. After the dinner, I dunno when i'll be meeting some of them again. =( Hopefully during graduation night?

Anyway, on the next day which is yesterday, I went back to KC to attend the graduation ceremony. If i didn't come to MUFY and continue studying Sr3 in my school, i'll be one of them graduating as well. (yes, i'm considered as a school leaver. not graduated ><) Then went out with some of the girls... and another exhausting day is over~

Will be blogging about it in the next post after getting the pics from them. Stay tuned~ =)
