= 4 my ladies =

I want to dedicate a poem to my ladies since I have the sudden thought ..
* I am always walking down paths,
Along the way, I will meet people.
Some of them are just passerby's,
But there are those I feel it's Godsend.
Those that always stood by me,
Never giving up on me,
With a heart that contains no boundaries,
Are those I called the special ones.
Their presence brightens me up,
As we have a bond that no one can explain.
We do grow separately as we gets older,
But without growing apart from each other.
These are the ones engraved deep inside my heart!
For my best friends : Christina Ng, Pearly Wong, Kelly Yap, April Toh, Carrine Chong and Samantha Yee.. Xoxo

* She's at it again *

Today I want to share a movie that I bought about a week ago, I actually watched it twice in a row on the very same week itself! How did I manage to come upon this movie? I was in the shop, soul-searching for movies when I came upon this ' The Boat That Rocked ' stating ' creator of ' Four Weddings, Notting Hill & Love Actually ' and my next reaction was like ' OMFG, is that a Richard Curtis film? ' I always have a thing for Richard Curtis,* giggles to oneself * I know it's lame but I do sometimes search for movies done by producers I adore such as Steven Spielberg, Tim Burton, Ron Howard, Robert Zemeckis, and Richard Curtis. * what I like about Richard Curtis? * to my point of view, he is a good writer and producer with films that were usually a little bit of heartbreaking but yet bringing laughter into the scene, so called ' romantic comedies' with an addition that he has a love for pop music? He is also the one behind Mr.Bean and Bridget Jones Diary

The movie 'The Boat that Rocked' talks about what happen during 1960's in United Kingdom. It is all about MUSIC,SEX & DRUGS! * you got me right, that's what i wrote and that is the time I got to know about Hippies! * In 1966, the moment when pop music was at it's finest era but the government was against it and they only allowed the BBC station to play only two hours of rock and roll every week, so at this time, somewhere in the high seas there happen to be a pirate radio station pumping good music 24 hours a day with rogue disc jockey's *DJs* and 25 millions of people ' that is more than half the population of Britain ' is actually listening to these pirates every single day but the British government official tries to take down the pirate radio to protect the country.

The pirate radio

* On air , off the shore, out of control,
One boat, eight man, no morals,
When Britain rocked, He ruled,
A small boat, the huge ocean, massive ego! *

* Rhys Ifans as Gavin Cavanagh!.. he has a really sexy voice! * yums *

* Philip Seymour Hoffman as The count! * He is a total cutie and he tries his best not to leave his microphone, throughout the whole movie * check out his headphone! *drools*...

It is worth to watch so don't miss this and I just can't get enough of the old school stuffs they have inside the movie! * the records, phonograph and headphones!! * Another thumbs up for this movie is the soundtrack. You get flashback on songs from The Kinks, The Beach Boys, Duffy, Cat Stevens, The Who, Dusty Springfield, Jimi Hendris, The Hollies, David Bowie and lots more which I almost neglected them, but when I was watching the movie I can actually still sing to it! ... Don't get shocked as I am a fan from all genres of music ranging from oldies, indies to electro....
Two of the songs that I liked,...
' Lazy Sunday Afternoon ' Small Faces

Wouldn't it be nice to get on wiv me neighbours( da da da do)
But they make it very clear they've got no room for ravers
They stop me from groovin, they bang on me wall
They're doin me crust in it's no good at all,
Lazy sunday afternoon, I've got no mind to worry, close my eyes and
Drift away, Close my eyes and drift away.

and ' Father and son ' Cat Stevens..
Father :
I was once like you are now, and I know that its not easy,
To be calm when you've found something going on.
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything you've got.
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not...

That's my Thursday :)

* Sunrise comes to soon *

Early in the morning, got woken up by my sneezes, * I just slept 3 hours and now I am widely awake * " sweat " Thought of writing about my best friend Ling's and Kennix birthday parties that was held on Saturday and Sunday but when I switched on my BlackyB * i named my canon Ixus * I realized I didn't take much pictures so I guess I'll just have to wait for the others to upload.And just to express my downsides, my Sony Vaoi which I named it 'SotSotBaobei' is running it's systems like a newly born snail and my 'SotsotKei' Sony Ericsson c920 is mentally ill!!* speechless * ' please don't laugh at me because I do have a habit of naming the things I owned and loved, haha '
Anyway to kill my boredom of thinking what to blog as I feel like typing something now.........................Suddenly i have a thought about FLOWERS! ....just let me crap..

You know how it feels when someone suddenly pop up and surprise you at your working place, house or when you are sick with a bouquet of *Real Flowers*??, ' ... no matter you are a guy or a girl, you will definitely be overwhelm! I mean come on, who actually don't like flowers? With the fact that flowers were given to express love, affection and caring, they should be irresistible!...

Let me share with you a secret about moi, I always knew flowers were beautiful, delicate and as one of the nature's most amazing and cherished splendors, they are wonderfully fragrant and I loved them. But few years back, I was telling my friends that it was totally ridiculous and stupid when someone send me flowers because I always thought that it's not worth! Come on, eventually the flowers will be dead in a few days,so why should I waste such money on something that I can't hold onto for long?... So I started to dislike flowers. But until two years ago, I have indeed changed my perception and fallen in love with them once again when I found out the beauty of flowers.

The true beauty of flowers is that they have a 'LANGUAGE' all their own! * I never knew that! * do you??
And that language was introduced to the Western world in the early 1700s when Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, a socially celebrated British letter-writer and poet who found a Turkish love letter that interpreted the meanings of various flowers, herbs and plants during her stay in Istanbul. She was totally fascinated by the letter that she started sending copies of the letter to her friends in the European society suggesting that even without writing mushy love letters you could actually communicate with your loved ones with flowers, herbs and plants!
And that's how I found out the true treasure about flowers and I am going to list down some flowers and their thought expressed...
* Amaryllis : pride, splendid beauty, timidity
* Anemone : expectations, sickness
* Aster : variety
* Carnation : Fascination, burning love, woman's love
* Chrysanthemum (red) : I love (white) : truth (yellow) : slighted love
* Clover (white) : think of me
* Daisy : innocence
* Lily (white) : sweetness, modesty, purity
* Anthurium : heart-shaped represents hospitality
* Gladiola : strong character
* Hydrangea : heartlessness, boastfulness
* Iris : message for you, flame, my compliments (yellow) : passion
* Lilac (purple) : love's first emotions
* Orchid : a beauty
* Peony : bashfulness, shame
* Buttercup : childishness, ingratitude
* Rose : love (red) : passion, beauty (pink) : friendship, graceful beauty (white) the giver is worthy of your love (yellow) jealousy
* Rosebud (red) : pure and lovely, you are young and beautiful (white) : a heart ignorant of love, girlhood (moss) confession of love)
* Stock : lasting beauty
* Sunflower (dwarf) : adoration (tall) : haughtiness
* Tulip : fame (red) : declaration of love (variegated) : beautiful eyes (yellow) : hopeless love
* Forget-Me_Not : true love, fond remembrance

= forget-me-not=

' Do you feel like grabbing some flowers and send to the particular someone right now after knowing that they do meant something ? ' I mean imagine putting Roses, Iris and Clover and it would come out ' Love, I have a message for you, think of me! ' *GRINNING WICKEDLY *... Now you can shower your love ones with the proper flowers and maybe tell them the meaning of the flowers which I think is totally sweet and it shows much more about one's affection towards the other! .. Xoxo to my Tuesday craps..

' Behind those walls '

She felt the doldrums in one's eyes, the moment she looked at one..
Silent whispers here and there, No one really know the reason behind.
It is never easy to assimilate unexpected truth about one's thought..
The clock is ticking, I think its TIME :)

- Don't get Caught -

You hear them whispering ' Hey, what is she up to nowadays? '.. ' So is she still working? ' ' What is she working now? ' ... everyone is curious to know what is she doing..

* grins * It's been some time again since I last blog, and to the above statement, ' I am currently not doing anything and I could actually sleep at any hours I like, although I prefer to sleep earlier just so that I could maintain a healthier lifestyle! ' And because of my lateness, you guys better bear with me as I am writing a long story about the current ME! .*LMAO*
Let me start with my lifestyle after closing the shop, this is my usual routine...
Morning * happens once in a blue moon *: I do get up earlier in the morning, maybe about 9-10 ish at times? LoL..well that is not what I want to share with you guys but I am not working now.Well, firstly when i get up from bed I will switch on the HI-FI as I need my music! ' and then go to the bathroom and brush my teeth for 5 minutes the least ' I hope it doens't put you in gasp as I have a friend whom brushes her teeth for the least 10 minutues! ' I even heard some girl brushes hers for 15 minutes which is totally crazy ' i think blood will start coming out at that mo' ! ', take my shower, wash my face and apply the needs for my face and body. Then I will walk to the kitchen and drink 4 glasses of water which is good for our health although my friend once told me it is better if u could gulp 6 glasses of water but I still couldn't manage to do so ', and after that I'll choose to eat an apple or strawberry yogurt before I start doing my house chores.
Afternoon : Will have my lunch taken either outside with my friends or at home, then I'll switch on my laptop and start chit-chatting with my friends while I surf the net. Some afternoons, I will go out to buy or read books in Kinokuniya, while doing a little bit of window shopping, and at times I will go find my friends for tea time.
Night : Another moment in the bathroom to cleanse oneself, and have my dinner taken, then I will just laze around at home, watch television, reads books or gather up myself in front of the 15" LCD Sony Vaoi.
Weekend mornings : Didn't enjoy much on my mornings just yet but I am hoping I could go for outdoor activities very soon!
Weekend nightlife : This one I think everyone could have guessed, I will be somewhere in the clubbing scene or walking around in areas where the cinemas is located.
After reading this, I do sound like some bimbo chick ' did I just state that on myself? ' , Haaa .. but it does sound so Bimboish as I ain't doing anything but just lazing around at home and having the time of my life, That IS SO NOT TRUE! Just because the fact that I close a shop does not mean I will let my career go down the drain, and what's more the actual fact is, I am working but unnoticed and unbothered as well as keeping quiet as I like to have a low-profile of myself. But to stop everyone from wondering about me, here is a sneak peek on what I usually do for my job..

So to everyone whom cares about me which I know you guys really do and i appreciate it, don't have to worry about me as I am working, .. :)

Next up, I am confessing I do smoke and here is my d.i.y cigarette box, *which is actually a free card holder that was given at the entrance from the last Freedom rave in Malacca but I found out it fits my ciggies perfectly* and my favorite lighter, all the way from Australia..' thanks to dearest Jaqc '.. ' EVERYONE SMOKING IS BAD FOR HEALTH ' so please don't ever learn to smoke if you haven't started it!

Next thing you know, I got myself a new box of eye shadows which has 120 colors * you guys will be wondering wth am I doing with so many colors but it's just so irresistible and I could always have a bit of fun with my make up! * and a pair of fake eyelash, ' it's unbelievable but I still don't know how to put on fake eye lashes! I think it's time to ask for tutorial from my sister Chuckei

Here is a snapshot of my handsome daddy with his latest haircut ' he didn't know i took this' and my gorgeous mummy as she is finally ready to pose for the camera...

And on last Saturday, Nana asked me to join her to the clubs and this time around, I was told not to abandon her halfway through the party scene as I always tend to go missing. Without hesitation I said ' Yes! , promising her I will not mingle with others and only stay with her '. So on that night itself, we did had fun, with my greatest dad fecthing me to the club... ' it is hard to believe but it is true as I was kind of late that night and I didn't know whom should I call at that very moment so.........! Here is a few shots taken in the club with my dearest...

I cut my own bangs yet again..

At about 1.30am, my phone starts vibrating and I got a message from my cuzzie telling me she and Ling will be coming to the club as well..My two besties..

Heart it when everyone gets a little tipsy..

Lastly , I am going to post about a restaurant located in Jalan Imbi, my dad brought us and my grandparents to dine on last Sunday. The reason I post this was because the delicacies are all finely made, the dishes are cooked with less oil and it is really delicious!..* I don't know how to translate into english the dishes we ordered * but it's really worth a try!

Here's the dishes we ordered that night...

' Sang Yu ' soup Clay pot ginger fish

' Siong tong ' la la Mince pork

'Muk yu and Nam yu ' pork Hong Kong ' choi sam '

That's all for my latest update about moi and I hope I didn't bored you people! ,

This time around, it is about one's love.. My mum

My mum is having a gastric problem that makes her wants to burp all the time which relates to her her indigestion problem. To what know, gastric problems is not easy to heal, it makes her very emotional, always putting all the blames and burdens to herself, unable to sleep well and lastly she has lost quite a few kilograms and I am totally not liking it! So what I'm writing here it's actually something she already knew as i keep blabbing on it but I just want to say it all over again in short notice..

'Mummy, just stay calm, try to relax yourself, don’t think so much of the unnecessary, what you want us to do just tell us, you know we would actually do it if you just say a word, and i don't like it when u always do that angry face even when you are not angry, as you are starting to get used to it! It is not good for you! Next thing you know all the wrinkles will start coming out..! I always prefer your laughter and you know I am always there when you need me so just CHILL okay?.. '

Everyone loves their mum but just let me state it here,
I LOVE MY MUM always do! * Don't worry everyone, my mum is recovering so don't go abroad over this issue.. I just want her to know how much i care about her..*

Yesterday was one of the best days i had, a knocked on the door and mum said...
'Lui' ( as in daughter ) , ' After fetching Ashley back from school,let's go to the salon and do something different to our hairstyles as I am totally bored with mine ' ..'It's been a while since I last heard as we were always busy '..

Mum asked me to recommend her on what kind of hairdo she should go for ' At that moment I was actually flipping through the VIVI magazine thinking of which model’s hair color actually suits me ' and then I came upon a really nice bob cut, I’m like 'hey mum I think this will look great on you!' … 'she took a look at it and replied 'not bad '... Then mum ask Ashley, 'Baby I thought you want to cut your hair too? 'Ashley nodded (Baby Ashley wanted the hairstyle for quite some time, but waiting for the right moment and courage to cut it) and after a moment of pause, they both agreed 'Let’s do it'

* It’s definitely going to be a big surprise for my Dad when he comes back on Saturday afternoon * and here’s a little sneak preview…

Let's start off with my MUM ...Her before..( she is sOooo gonna kill me for using the not so good looking picture! )

This is what i choose for her from the magazine

And here is my beautiful mum.. ' just a side preview' she is still not ready for pictures yet but I am already loving it!'

Next up is my little sister, Baby Ashley.. ( two photos from her blog) the before..

The after.. ( again just to keep u guessing )..

Finally it's moi, all i did was coloring, so i give Lena Fuji page to Frank telling him I wanted this hair color,

And Voila..

It isn't perfect though, as I dyed my hair black before, my total coverage was not what i presume it to be..But I still think it looked fine .. :)
That's all for now... xoxo

* Saying Goodbye *

On the 4th of August 2009, I said my last Goodbye to the streets of Jalan P.Ramlee which I occupied for 9 months.. and I thought goodbye was easy.. ' i still feel a little heartbreaking at the mo'...when i see the people shifting out the sofa, cupboards, display cabinets and all the other items. People start asking me, ' are you alright? ' .. 'what you gonna do next' .. Don't worry peeps, 'I am alright' ... I will do something else.. Life is all about learning, exploring and experiencing right? ...
* i got a poem for the shop* this is totally lame but i am me and that is the way i express myself so.... i am just gonna put it in my blog *

I once had the chance to hold it close,
And i use all my ways figuring out how to satisfy the needs,
As someone told me to stay strong,
Believing that miracles will happen someday.
In between the lines, there is always arguments,
But a wrong spot was chosen..
Then comes along a so-called friend,
Trying it's best to make things work..
And one said one was a good buddy,
All I sense is an expectation out of nothing..
Though I do feel bad having to leave it,
But I cant bear with it any longer..
As it is time to move on to another new journey..
Goodbye Heart & Soul
