Totally Bedazzeld

Living In Adelaide

2007-07-26T23:37:00.000-07:00

Its been a week since i came to adelaide. For those of you who might not know about me leaving malaysia, allow me to give you a summary of the unexpected event that happened. I always knew that i was going to come to adelaide to study, but after i came back from my langkawi trip the following events were unexpected. First off i got my offer letter late, so i had to rush to get my medical and settle the payment. Then i realised i had to be in adelaide before the 23rd, i was already going to miss my 2 week orientation programme. The hardest part was getting a flight ticket to adelaide. There was a moment when i thought, i wasnt going to come as all the flights were full. However, i was lucky enough to get a ticket for the 18th of July (business class)..*lol*..So im sure you can imagine how hectic that 2 weeks was for me. Finally when my visa and medical came through within 3 days (which is suprising), i thought " wow finally i can take a deep breath", guess i was wrong. I can never forget the phone call i got from my mum that friday, 13th July (its really a unlucky date) saying that my flight has been brought forward to the 16th. GOSH!!! i was really sad. the rest of the story was well you could say history...........

Here i am, at ADELAIDE doing the bachelor of science programme. Some people might get confused as you might know that i plan on studying dentistry. I have applied for dentistry for 2008 february intake. I have to sit for a PQA exam (3th aug) and pass the test and then go for an interview. Seriously its really nerve-wrecking. Studying dentistry is my aim and my goal. bachelor of science is basicly just a backup course for me. So pray for me people, cause i really want this bad!!!!!.. hope everything goes well *fingers-crossed*....

Adelaide is a small town, something like Klang. The difference is, its much more beautiful and has a lot of trees, clean air etc etc. (im not dissing klg okay). Its pretty quiet and peaceful, easy going place. There is night life here and its good as well. Im staying at Lincoln College, it is a residential college situated about 2.5 km from university. Its about a 15 min walk to uni. Its a fairly big place which accomodates about 200 something people. Most of the residents are malaysians and singaporeans. They're nice people and have really helped me settle in and all. My floormates are nice as well.Every day there's soemthing new going on for newbies such as myself to meet people.

I have to admit that i still feel homesick.I always wanted to further my studies in australia, specifically melbourne. Now im in adelaide, my plans have changed. Coming to this place on my own and finding my way around was scary. Luckily for me i had help, it made things easier. Leaving my comfort zone and coming here definately was not an easy task. I guess thats what every student or person goes through when they go to a new place. You basicly have to start from scratch.... meeting new people and getting accustomed to the place *hmm*. Only time can make a difference here. Besides missing my mum and family, i really miss my friends. The people here are not so friendly, you have to approach and show them that your putting effort into it. Starting in the 2nd semester doesnt make things better, cause everyone already have their own "clique".Despite that, i made a new friend. She's russian and goes by the name Valentina. She's in all my classes and well she's just friendly.

Nothing can compare to my besties back home. Im counting the days people till i come back home. Miss you people a whole lot *sobs*. I appreciate the things people did for before i came to adelaide. Your friendship means a lot to me and im glad that i found something that is to be treasured.

This post is specially dedicated to the following people :

1) prax,ashley,rovin,dal,lisa, tina, raeyna, raey's dad, adrian and arvin for being there for me at my place
2) Vee, keith, kevindra *haha*, raven and sohan- for coming to the airport
3) hammy for the beautiful lilies ( i love lillies)
4) roshan for an unforgetable saturday *hugs* & the chocolates
5) sanjay-for everything.
6) stephie doo and dalini - really sweet card

Penang-Langkawi 2007!!!

2007-07-09T00:38:00.000-07:00

Call it a short trip or a vacation, but this was my first ever trip with my friends anywhere actually. Im glad that i went for this much awaited trip to langkawi with my SAM ex-classmates. We actually planned this trip end of 2006, but due to unforseen circumstances, the trip was postphoned. Finally on 27th june 2007, 5 of us packed our bags and headed to langkawi, however we made a short stop over at penang to meet pei wen. I was equally suprised as everyone else who knew i went to langkawi when my mum gave me permission to go. *lol*..but of course i didnt question it (im crazy if i did), i was filled with excitement.

27th june 2007, 9.30am :

Prakash and dalini sent me to the airport. They are soooo sweet, i mean which friend would actually get up early and follow me to LCCT terminal and ive got the best BIL who is actually willing to send me there. *hugs*. I met my friends there and we flew to penang with air asia.

Prem & Premi

(from left) Vee lyn, Eugene, Keith

The flight was about 40 mins, Pei wen and her sis met us at the airport. The good thing about the flight was that it was really fast then again maybe having my friends made it all the better. Penang looks pretty much the same, there are so many cars on the road and traffic is bad. I really thought i was not going to survive to see the next day, that's how scary the people in Penang drive. Then again pei wen driving was pretty freaky as well.Poor vee lyn thought she was going to die at a point *haha*. In the midst of the whole scary moment, we still had time to camwhore *laughs*

Vee darling & Premi

Pei Wen, Vee, Premi, Keith ( you can barely see prem and eugene)

By the time we checked into the apartment/ hotel we were all so exhausted and hungry at the same time. Besides we were at the food haven, how can we waste precious time. Pei wen then took us to this small mamak shop for indian mee. It was the best ever indian mee i have ever eaten *yummy yummy*. It was just so delicious. After that it was desert time, and we were all craving for ais kacang.. *hehe*.

Everyone feeling exhausted..it was the longest check in ever!!

The best indian mee i have ever eaten!!

I scream, You scream, We all scream for AIS KACANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After satisfying our tummy, we had to do shopping!!, cant help it were girls after all *lol*. Prem, eugene and keith decided to join us.. they were sitting at coffee bean obviously while pei wen and vee went bikini shopping while i just tagged along.Of course there was camwhoring time!!

We are wearing the same jeans ;)

After a very long and tiring day we went back to the apartment and had our baths. We then made our way to gurney drive. What's a visit to penang if we dont go to gurney drive to eat!.. as you might have expected, we ate until we couldnt eat no more. Once dinner was done, we took a drive to batu ferringhi to see blue sand and because i needed to get myself flip flops. I ended up getting my mum a present, one tree hill season 4 cd's and shorts.... Sadly we were not able to see the blue sand. It was a long day and we had to get up early to catch the ferry which was at 8.30am so we headed back to the apartment.

This is a cute picture of keith *aww*

We woke up at about 5 in the morning to avoid the traffic jam which is a major issue in penang. Pei wen wanted to take us for a good dim sum breakfast as well. Breakfast was at 6.30 am *yawns*

The ferry ride from Penang to langkawi was RM50, it is soooo expensive, what a rip off!!! and the journey was 2 1/2 hours. It was a really long and dreadful journey. Thankfully i slept through out the first 1 1/2 hour.. The best part of the journey was we stopped at Pulau Paya..and it is soooo beautiful!!!!

Welcome to Pulau Paya!!!!

Talinn, Estonia

2007-07-06T02:03:00.001-07:00

The final country the ship docked at was Estonia. The port of call Talinn which is also the capital of Estonia had the most beautiful port. The view of talinn from the ship was just simply breathtaking and wonderful. Talinn is situated on the southern shore of the Gulf of Finland. It is the republic's largest industrial and cultural center and an important baltic harbour.In my opinion Talinn is one of the prettiest cities in the Baltic. It is set on a hillock above the port, the old town which is a must see when at talinn is a medieval enclave with old buildings, towers, buildings dating back to the middle ages.

A picture of Talinn from the cruise ship.

Talinn is a small city which has a popultion of 400,000 inhabitants. Thus its not really neccessary to join tour groups. My family and i decided to discover talinn ourselves. The weather was just perfect. We took a shuttle bus into the old town and begin our visit by foot.

The entrance into the old town

Walking around was not really difficult, besides the people are always more than happy to help you out in giving directions. One thing i really enjoyed about visiting these different places is that no matter where you come from, people are just friendly and helpful. This is something that our country is lacking.

We arrived at Talinn on a sunday, hence there were many people in town. This made the atmosphere all the better and fun. The Town hall square is the center of Talinn's life. It is the main square with a wide range of restaurants and shops. This square dates back as far as the 11th century. People gather here to do their shopping and various events are held during the weekend.

Thats me standing infront of the St. Nicholas Church. It was pretty hard to get a proper shot of the whole church. The St.nicholas church is dedicated to the Patron Saint of Seamen. Built in 1230, it was badly damaged by fire in the 15th century and was rebuilt.

St.Petersburg, Russia- Day 2

2007-07-06T00:08:00.000-07:00

Day 2 of St. Petersburg was very similar to the first day as we had to get up very early in the morning about 5.30 am, have breakfast and meet at the designated place by 7.15am. However i was really looking forward towards it because we were going on a tour to the summer palaces of Peterhof. The tour was approximately 8 hours, so we had to make sure that we had all the neccessary items for this long day. The sunny weather was a very good motivation for all of us and russia looked as beautiful as ever... not forgetting we had really pretty tour guides, sadly i dont have any pictures *hehe*.

Peterhof is situated on the southern shore of the Gulf of Finland. Also known as Petrodvorets, it was founded in 1710 as a summer residence for Peter the Great. Altered and extended over the years, it was almost completely rebuilt between 1747 and 1754. Inside the Grand Palace are many splendid displays of art, decorative objects and furniture. The palace over-looks a vista of spreading gardens and fountains.

Inside Peterhof :

The most interesting fountain ive ever seen, its a TREE fountain

This is the house Nicholas the 2nd grew up

Funny looking clock. This clock tells the time of every state in russia *how cool!!!!*

Alexis the son of nicholas II. He was hemophilic.

The official palace of the russian prime minister.

In conclusion, russia was truly a magnificent place. Rich in culture and history it was truly the climax of the whole cruise. I had a very good time and looking forward going back to seeing more of russia.

St.Petersburg, Russia - Day 1

2007-06-24T23:12:00.000-07:00

The highlight and the moment we were all waiting for was arriving at St.Petersburg, Russia. I was filled with excitement, not just because of the hot russian guys *winks* but also because i have heard a lot about St.petersburg and from watching Anastasia..it gives you and idea and expectation. I had very high expectations and I'm happy to say that St.Petersburg certainly lived up to my expectations *yay!!*.

St. Petersburg is situated on the eastern shore of the Gulf Of Finland and is considered the most european of all the great cities of Russia.Built by Peter the Great in 1703 as russia's "window to the west', St.Petersburg is Russia's biggest port, a huge industrial center and truly an international city.The city has a population of over 5 million inhabitants and is rich of its italianate palaces, ornate cathedrals and broad boulevards. It has a network of 60 rivers and canals criss-cross the city and have about 400 bridges.

There were so many places to see and so many things do, thus the cruise was docked at the port for 2 days. St.petersburg is not a place where you can do your own touring, there was so many details, history and information which was important. We as well as 90% of the people on board the cruise signed up for tours. The disadvantage of the tours is that we had to get by 6 am and have breakfast because we had to gather by 7.45. You really cant complain, cause there was so many things to see and so little time. On day 1, the tour we booked was the tour around St.Petersburg with Hermitage.

The Saint Nicholas Naval Cathedral

Mariinskiy Theatre named after Maria, the daughter or Emperor Nicholas I

Premi at Isaakievskaya Square. The statue behind is the monument of nicholas.

This is St.Isaac's Cathedral. This Cathedral was built between 1818 and 1858. It is the largest church, situated on the side of Decemberists square. It is decorated with 14 kinds of minerals and semi- precious stones as well as mosaic paintings.

The details of the work is magnificent.

This church is known to Petersburgers as the Church of the Savior on the Spilled Blood - or even just the Church on the Blood - as it marks the spot where Alexander II was fatally wounded in an assassination attempt on March 1, 1881.

This is Peter and Paul Fortress.In the middle of the fortress stands the impressive Peter and Paul Cathedral, the burial place of all the Russian Emperors and Empresses from Peter the Great to Alexander III. The Cathedral was the first church in the city to be built of stone (between 1712-33) and its design is curiously unusual for a Russian Orthodox church

The Alexander Garden is located in the very center of St. Petersburg, next to Palace Square and behind the Admiralty. Until 1806, the area was covered by the Admiralty's fortifications, but after these were removed it became Admiralty Square.

The Hermitage Museum is Russia's best gallery of world art, one of the most prominent art museums in the world and definitely the main tourist attraction of St. Petersburg. The museum was founded in 1764 when Catherine the Great purchased a collection of 255 paintings from the German city of Berlin. Today, the Hermitage boasts over 2.7 million exhibits and displays a diverse range of art and artifacts from all over the world.

The Winter palace.The main building of the Hermitage Museum is the Winter Palace, which was once the main residence of the Russian Tsars. Magnificently located on the bank of the Neva River, this green-and-white three-storey palace is a marvel of Baroque architecture.

Helsinki, Finland

2007-06-24T02:57:00.000-07:00

Day 7, and the port of call is Helsinki, Finland. Helsinki the capital of finland, is finland's largest city. However it is relatively small compared to other scandinavian capitals. Finland is the seventh largest european country. It has a population of 5 million. Helsinki is surrounded by water on three sides. It has a natural seaport and thanks to its powerful ice breakers is kept open during winter. Arriving at helsinki, the clear blue sky, fresh air and the bright sunshine it was just a perfect moment. Helsinki is beautiful during summer time and bares a certain resemblance towards oslo (norway).

The first place we visited was Temppeliaukio Church also known as Rock Church. Well im sure you know very well why its called rock church....because its made out of rock *duh*(hehe). This particular church us carved out of solid rock and this unique building is one of the city's most popular tourist attraction. The simplest way to describe the shape of the church is that it is a shape of an iglu.

Mum and sis outside rock church

premi inside the rock church

The interior of the church, its pretty small inside.

After seeing the rock church, my family and i headed to The Lutheran Cathedral which is located on the northern side of the senate square. It was built between 1830 and 1852, this cathedral is also known as Tuomiokirkko.

The lutheran Cathedral

Next stop was Uspenski Cathedral.This cathedral is of orthodox denomination and it is dedicated to the "eternal sleep of the virgin mary". Another beautiful cathedral.

Inside Uspenski Cathedral, its amazing.

Moving from the amazing cathedrals, we went to the flower market or the market square.

More beautiful flowers!!!

I just cant get enough of the flowers !!

Interesting dolls dont you think?????

The streets of helsinki, finland

Stockholm, Sweden

2007-06-20T20:02:00.000-07:00

After having a day at sea, on day 6 we arrive at stockholm. Stockhom, the capital of Sweden is arguably one of the world's most beautiful national capitals, unfortunately we were greeted by a cold and gloomy weather. So much for seeing the most beatiful place in the summer. The gloomy weather did not stop my family and i from venturing out and exploring stockholm on feet.

Stockholm is often called " the venice of the north" or " beauty on water". It is built on 14 islands which are connected by over 50 bridges. Stockholm's harbor opens into a archipelago of 24,000 islands and islets. It is a popular area for holidays, there are about 50,000 summer home and chalets that are reached by some of the 250,000 private boats.It is through this passage that the cruise ship and enters and exit on their visit to Stockholm. The journey which takes approximtely 3 hours shows a visual feast of ever changing scenery. So you can imagine how interesting and beautiful sailing into stockhom is.

This is my most favourite picture yet.. its so pretty, an example of people owning their own private island.

There are 2 parts of Stockholm, the oldest part known as Gamla Stan and the new part. Gamla Stan is a popular tourist attraction.This is because of its narrow streets which are lined with beautiful buildings dating from the 14th- 19th century. This is basicly where we were throughout the entire time in stockholm, due to minimum time we were not able to go to the new part of Stockholm.One of the highlights in stockholm was the changing of the guards at the royal palace. It was interesting but it was an hour long and their uniforms were not as exciting as the british royal guards. Nevertheless it is a must see when in stockholm.

The changing of guards

Welcome to stockholm

Copenhagen, Denmark

2007-06-18T03:24:00.000-07:00

We reached copenhagen the capital of Denmark on day 4. The weather was not as good as it was in Oslo, but nevertheless we still did our own touring. Every night before we arrive at the next port of destination, the cruise directors deliver a shopping guide map to the cabins. This makes it easier for the tourist to move around the places and visit the important sights. It also saves time because there is a certain time we have to be back on board and if you miss it...well the ship waits for no one..you'll get a good view of the back of the ship *lol*.

A few things you need to know about Copenhagen is that its Scandinavia's largest city. The name Copenhagen or Kobenhavn means "Merchant harbour" and was founded in 1167. Copenhagen has a metropolitan population of 1.8 million.Denmark consist of more than 400 islands many which are uninhabited and its the smallest nation in northern europe.The Krone is the national currency and they are 6 hours behind time.We should be thankful to Copenhagen for beer ( Carlsberg and Tuborg), im sure the guys are smiling..., butter, biscuits and bacon (raehan's fav) *lol*.

The main attraction is Copenhagen is Tivoli's Garden. It is a famous and century old amusement park located at the heart of the city. We just saw the outside cause well you would have to spend a lot of time at an amusement park and we only had 8 hours in Denmark. We decided to just walk around and do some shopping. It still turned out to be a great day.

One thing i love about cruising is the view, the sight of the ocean and watching the sunset is really amazing. It so calm and relaxing. Sailing into copenhagen was beautiful, this is because you have to sail through the Fjords and as you know there are many islands. On this islands are houses, most of them are summer houses and vacation homes..but its really beautiful.The ship sails between the fjords and on both sides you can see different types of houses and the yachts and boats.

We took a shuttle into town which was about 15 mins drive away from the port. The famous shopping street called Ostergade was the starting point of our walking in copenhagen. Halberstadt is a famous shop on that street. The reason its famous is for their amber jewellery. Just to let you know, copenhagen is famous for their amber jewellery.Halberstadt is also reknowned for its little train. This little train is embedded with millions of diamonds and carries all the different kinds of stones.

The train which carries sapphires, ruby;s and diamonds.Its made of gold.

Im not too sure what this building is *hmm*

I wonder what you call that instrument the guys holding???

The little mermaid statue and me

The little mermaid statue is one of the popular attractions in copehagen.The bronze statue of the famed little mermaid or as the danish call it " den lille havfrue", was commisioned in honor of author, Hans Christian Andersen. It is located on the waterfront and is a 15 min walk from the port where the ship was docked. It only looks big in pictures, it a small statue.

OSLO, Norway

2007-06-17T07:43:00.000-07:00

On day 3 of the cruise, we finally arrived at our first port of call. It was oslo, the capital of Norway. There are many tour organised by the cruise directors, but there were many people who went along doing their own touring and thats what my family and i did. We arrived at oslo at precisely 8 am. the ship was docked near town, so we could easily walk into town. The sun was shining, and it was the most beautiful sight i have ever seen. We took our map and shopping guide and headed on to explore oslo.

It is most definately the most beautiful place among all the other countries we visited. Oslo is a small town, and because we arrived on a sunday, it was very quiet. All the shops were closed, you could hardly see people around unlike malaysia where everyone heads to the city and the malls. Well this was certainly the opposite. The main highlight of oslo was Vigeland Sculputre Park.

Vigeland Sculpture Park

One of the artistic highlights of Norway is the Sculpture Park in Oslo. The park contains 192 sculptures with more than 600 figures, all modeled in full size by Gustav Vigeland without the assistance of pupils or other artists. Vigeland also designed the architectural setting and the layout of the grounds.This is my favourite place and its just fascinating (hence the detailed information).

Vigeland sculpture park is truly one of a kind and a work of art. There are 4 very important parts to it. The bridge, the fountain, the monolith and the wheel of life.

THE BRIDGE

58 bronze sculptures on granite parapets (1926-1933) stand on either side of the Bridge portraying people of widely differing ages, although there is less emphasis on old age than others in the park. Many characteristic representations of children are noticeable.

Sandya, in the background are the sculptures of people in different ages.

The circle being a well-known symbol of eternity, the sculpture indicates the constant attraction and love between the sexes or a figurative version of the Eastern symbol of "Yin and Yang."

THE FOUNTAIN

The Fountain is the earliest sculpture unit in the park. In the center of the basin, six giants hold the large saucer-shaped vessel aloft and from it a curtain of water spills down around them. The men, representing different ages, may be interpreted as toiling with the burden of life and the effort expended in lifting the heavy vessel varies.

The fountain and if you look closely you can see a rainbow..its not illusion, it was there for real. At the back is the monolith.

My dad and me

THE MONOLITH

The column, 14.12 meters (46 feet) high carved out of a single block of stone, consists of 121 figures. Modeled by Vigeland in the years 1924-25, it took three stone carvers from 1929 to 1943 to complete the Monolith, just shortly before Vigeland died.The column is completely covered by human figures in relief, singly or in groups.

I look like a pink speck amongst all the greyness. *hmm*

Cant believe that sandya posing!!! , Surrounding the Monolith are 36 groups in granite depicting the cycle of life. Every sculpture includes at least two figures depicting Man in a variety of typical human situations and relationships.

THE WHEEL OF LIFE

Wheel of life. it basically represents the eternal circle.

Among the other places in oslo that we saw was :

My dad standing infront of the residence of the royal family

Sandya and dad at city hall.

Giant naked lady and premi at city hall.

Welcome to OSLO!!!, i like this picture.

I love the flowers, theyre so beautiful

Isnt it beautiful, im talking about the flowers *hehe*

Overall, oslo is a beautiful country, its full of radiance and it has a good public transportation system. I had a good time and it was a good start for a 12 day cruise.

The Good times

2007-06-14T01:07:00.000-07:00

I can sum up my whole vacation by saying it was truly a BREATH of fresh air. Something i needed to get away from everything and just relax. Spending time with my aunt and her family was a warmth i miss a lot and the whole cruise was a new experience which i learnt a lot from. I met different people from different parts of the world. On board the cruise there were 64 different nationalities. Everyone is so friendly it makes you feel very much at home.

Some people might think that being out in the open sea can be boring. Let me remind you that there are loads of activity constantly happening on the ship, you can never ever get bored. Most people however just like to relax and get tanned. It was pretty hard for people to get tanned on this trip cause the weather was so cold and windy. Still figuring out why prakash said ive tanned *thinks*....

One thing i really enjoyed was the entertainment on board the ship. Every night, there will be different performers with various talents performing. It was really nice and entertaining. The entertainment programme went something like this :

Day 1 : The Zany comedy of Neil Austin

Day 2 : The Royal Caribbean Singers and dancers in West End to Broadway

Day 3 : was too tired to go for the show.

Day 4 : The Comedy of Duggie Brown

Day 5 : "The Voice" Brenda Cochrane

Day 6 : Gary Levini

Day 7 : Mario and Daniel's Tango Buenos Aires Starring Leandro & Sol feat Royal Caribbean Singers and dancers & tango buenos aires orchestra.

These people are really really good. Their performance was a standing ovation and i never knew tango was that hot & sexy dance..it can really turn you on! * take note guys & girls* (tango is the way to go) hehe

Day 8 : St. Petersburg Folkloric Show

Sorry guys, i dont have any pictures of the russian folkloric show. however i do have some pictures of the helsinki folkloric show.

Day 9 : William Hick's- Soul Satisfaction, American Four Tops Motown Show

Day 10 : The Royal Caribbean Singers and Dancers performing the city of dreams

Sorry, no pictures were available

Day 11 : Jonathan Kane

Does this guy look familiar too you???.. (look closely)

The lighting wasnt that good so i couldnt really get a good picture of him. His name is Jonathan Kane and he looks a lot like.................... SIr Elton John. That night was a tribute to elton john and believe me, he even sounds like elton john

Day 12 : Royal Caribbean International presents farewell Showtime

Jewel of the Seas- Scandinavian/ Russia Cruise

2007-06-13T01:46:00.000-07:00

I have conquered land, air and finally the sea!!cruising was a whole different experience for me. It is incomparable to any other vacation i have ever been on. Its very relaxing and a slow holiday. You dont have to worry about your luggage. After loading the luggage on to the bus, the next time you will see it is in your cabin. You dont have to worry about plans and food. Its basically a slow and easy going, hassle free way of travelling. Cruising offers something for everyone. There are cruises meant for elderly people, cruises for families and cruises for younger people. The jewel of the Seas caters for people from different groups of age.The important thing about cruising is it is all about exploring the world.

Jewel of the Seas is one of the new cruise ships belonging to Royal Caribbean. Royal Caribbean international has over 22 cruise ships and jewel of the seas belongs to the Radiance Family group.Here are a few ship facts about the jewel of the seas :

Thats the size of the cabin in the cruise, small yet very comfortable and cosy.

London- acton

2007-06-12T23:13:00.001-07:00

I stayed at my aunt's house (mum's sister) in london. She lives there with her husband and three children. Im not sure whether its me or what but something really attracts me to london. i really like the place and the fact that i have an aunt there makes it all the better. I know there are many people who might think otherwise, but london is definitely my favourite place.

The last time i went to london was in 2003, i was there for a month. Thus i did most of the sightseeing and touring during that time. So this time i didnt go to London town, i spent most of my time at my aunts place in acton. Acton is about 15 mins from heathrow airport, for all those people who love planes this is a good place to live because you can see planes very often.

FACT : did you know that every 30 second a plane lands in heathrow (its true). Heathrow is one of the most busiest airport.

Basicly i just went around to Ealing town and did some shopping there. You can seriously go crazy shopping in London. The summer clothes are fabulous and the colours are so beautiful, the only sad part is that its very expensive and its really hard to get my size. Besides shopping, i went to watch Pirates of the Carribean 3 with my uncle, visiting and just helping out. I spent quality time with my family.

Flying Malaysia Airlines

2007-06-12T22:50:00.000-07:00

Caution: for all those avid MAS fanatics, please read at your own risk. If you do insist on reading, please have an open mind.

Malaysian airlines (MAS) is a well known name not only in our country but around the world.It has won several prestigous awards such as best cabin crew, second best airline (if im not mistaken) etc etc.Like everyother people, my family is a frequent flyer with mas so obviously my trip to uk would be with none other than malaysian airlines. However, i guess it is my luck that i have never had a good journey with mas without any complains whatsoever.

KLIA to LH :

It was a 13 hour journey and believe me when i say it was the longest and most boring journey ever. As i snuggle into my economy class seat (not everyone can travel business class *hints*) and try to get comfortable, an announcement comes on saying that there is some technical problem with the entertainment system..well how bad could it be i thought.*hmm*..and the result was throughout the entire journey i watched 4 out of 6 movies and well few episodes of house..thank god for house!! *lol*. I am not a person who can fall asleep on flights, thus i really depend on the entertainment system.this was a big blow for me. The only good thing about the flight was the food suprisingly. (Note: this is coming from a person who never liked mas food). The cabin crew was not all that good idea. you only could see them in the begining of the flight, when food was served and when we landed at heathrow. By the time we reached heathrow, i was glad that i didnt have to take a flight for another 3 weeks.

LH to KLIA :

Suprisingly the journey back was only 11 hours. Im not sure how this whole time thing works. *sighs* what can i say..it was another disaster flight. Yet again the entertainment system had problems. I have to admit that MAS has a good selection of movies and songs and a good entertaiment plan..but what's the point of having all this when it just keeps giving problem. this is not the worse part. The worst is that for the first 4 hours of the journey, my TV- thing was not functioning (just my luck). Well it was not only my seat but many people faced this similar situation as well. After asking the cabin crew twice, finally it started working. In the mean time, my CLEO magazine kept me company *hehe*. Another thing i really despise, is the fact that the cabin crew gives more attention to "whites" than the malaysians or asian passengers.

Come on!, mas is after all an malaysian airlines, i think they should give equal treatment. im not saying that they're mean to the malaysian passengers its just that its pretty obvious!!!. Nevertheless, i still recommend people to fly with malaysian airlines because its a good quality airline, the seats are comfortable, the food has improved and its a safe airlines to fly with.. It still needs a few changes though.

Guess whose back!!!!

2007-06-12T22:47:00.000-07:00

hey people!!.im back from a very long yet amazing holiday. i know i have not updated my blog in a long time. At the moment im busy uploading pictures and unpacking stuff, so please bare with me okay!!. Im trying to get back to my normal routine maybe with a few changes...still having jet lag and stuff.. but nevertheless i'll make your wait worthwhile with more pictures and interesting stories okay *smiles*..

This saturday i'll be flying off to london and the cruise begins on the 25th may for about 2 weeks. So people, ill be gone for about one month. Honestly im not that excited, as u might think i am..this is because my sister (priya) wont be joining me and well every holiday we used to do things together. Its one of the pleasures of having a sister whose a year older than you. You can check out guys together, walk around together, gossip together, stay up late and chat, explore things together..*sobs*...im gonna be alone with my parents and my younger sister..(I WANT PRIYA!!!!!)..thus this trip will be the 1st ever trip without my elder sis.

The only thing im looking forward too is the fact that im finally getting out of my house and well going to london.Since my aunt stays there and all, it will be really nice to see her. Im gonna miss a whole lot though, i wont be here for the premiere of Pirates of the Carribean 3 and shrek 3 *sadness* but the good thing is when im back, all my dearest buddies except daley will be finished with their exams and they can spend quality time with me *YIPPIE!!!*.

Getting back to topic...i thought before i leave, ill just let u know on my whereabout for my hols. Since i wont be able to come online and blog...no worries im gonna take loads of pictures *hehe*..

Tragedy strikes again (after virginia tech shooting), the sms i got that morning on da 1st of may 2007 was the worst and most saddest sms i have ever received. i was in SHOCK!! and i still am in shock. The tragic incident that occured at 3 a.m has changed many people's life. this post is specially for reshween sonia kaur,kosheila and iswari..the 3 best frens who returned to god's kingdom.

kosheila (on da left) and reshween (on da right)..sorry i couldnt get a picture of iswari

I knew reshween from bm tuition, kosheila from sunitha and iswari from prasad tuition. We werent close but we had the same mutual friends. The tragedy that fell upon them is something none could imagine. They were only 19 years old (my age), they had so much more to live for ...and in a split second they were taken away from their loved ones.

Im not gonna talk about how the accident occured or post any pictures of the accident. Honestly i really dont want to talk about how it happened and whose fault is it..because talking about those things is not going to bring them back!!! . I believe that these girls should be remembered during their good times. They did not suffer and their last memories were really good ones. They were not alone at all. I along with many other people grief and mourn over the lost, eventhough they are not among us right now, their presence will never be forgotten.

Quote: It is sufficiently clear that all things are changed, and nothing really perishes, and that the sum of matter remains absolutely the same. -Francis Bacon, De Natura Rerum

We can question god's action but we will never really get an answer for the reason's of his action. What happen was unfair no doubt about it but maybe HE needed them by his side, he took 3 angels to be with him. As we know, god always takes the people he loves the most. At the present moment, i think that we all should pray that they rest in peace, pray for their family to have the support and love to get through this rough period of time, pray for jagdeep.

Quote: That nothing with God can be accidental. -Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, The Golden Legend Pt. vi

We all should stop for a moment and learn from this incident. Never EVER!! underestimate life and take it for granted. We have to appreciate every single moment we spend with our loved ones. Dont speed and dont drink and drive!. None of us can imagine the pain the families are going through and believe me when i say that we should never put our family through that kind of heartache. We should respect our lives and be responsible.

Quote:The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.-- Mahatma Gandhi

Forgiveness is me giving up my right to hurt you for hurting me. --Anonymous

One thing i learnt from this is that..im never going to take things and people in my life for granted. Sha sha and lisa, this is hard on you..but im here for you if u need anything. *hugs* just reach out for my hand. We all need each other to get through this.

We are not human beings on a Spiritual journey. We are Spiritual Beings on a human journey.— a quote that i heard on oprah and really touched me.

How well do u know me AGAIN!!!

Then there are some people who really go out of their way to make my day, so im taking this opportunity to thank these really sweet individuals who have just made my day recently... i love you ppl.

Earth Day 2007

2007-04-22T19:25:00.000-07:00

That's rite people today is " EARTH DAY". We have been blessed to be born in such a unique and beautiful planet called "earth".... God has created a planet which has an amazing and breath taking natural beauty. These natural beauty not only gives us beautiful scenery but also great travel destination. I would call the planet which we live on a "GIFT", what would we do without this "GIFT". Imagine living on planet mars for example...bear land, no diversity or just imagine living in a black and white world???.. i certainly would not want to imagine or better yet live such a life!!.

However we (mankind) have certainly failed to look after this precious "Gift" brought upon us. We have neglected our duties to preserve mother earth and have taken our mother earth for granted!!! *sighs*. Now as we move into an era which is technologically advanced, has sky high buildings, many multi billionare's and basicly growing countries, we have overlooked a MAJOR *stress* part of our life which is deteriorating drascticlly, "ENVIRONMENT".....

We are too blinded by money, fame and just making profit. that we have fail to realise the consequences of our action..... We have to Stop and realise that we are nothing without mother nature.Honestly in my opinion, with the growing critical condition of our environment..we( mankind) have nothing to be proud of. We can come up with robots and funny gadgets, but we are not doing anything to look after and save the environment. Among the aftermath of our actions are:

i) Global warming

ii) The depletion of ozone layer

iii) extinction of wildlife

iv) pollution (all kinds)

The list can go on and on, but i believe that we are all smart people, Heck we're suppose to be the smartest species rite????.. so i dont have to go on and on... Thus on Earth day, i think it is time that we create awareness and work together to save our mother earth people!!. It just takes one person to start and well the rest will follow. im gonna do my part and i hope you people do yours as well..

Below is the " World's Endagered Destinations" due to global warming

The Everglades, Florida : Even a slight increase in temperature and water level could prove devastating to popular destinations like the Everglades, Miami Beach and the Keys.

Kenai Fjords National Park, Alaska:A sign in Kenai Fjords National Park indicates where the Exit Glacier reached in 1978; about a half-mile away from where it has receded to today.

Australia’s Great Barrier Reef:One of the most impressive natural habitats in the world, the Great Barrier Reef could be killed by increased water temperatures and the resulting coral bleaching.

The Netherlands: Popular for its abundant windmills, tulips, art and history, low-lying Holland-is at great risk of damaging floods over the next century.

Mt. Kilimanjaro, Tanzania: The first image of Kilimanjaro above was taken prior to 1998, the second in 2005.

Funafuti, Tuvalu:The tiny Pacific atoll nation of Tuvalu has been in talks with New Zealand about a possible evacuation of its 11,000 inhabitants if the oceans continue to rise.

South Georgia Island: Rife with Emperor penguins, seal, whales and albatross, South Georgia Island,Studies have shown that both poles are warming at a rate far faster than the rest of the planet, leading to decreased ice thickness and an increase in ice shelf disintegration.

Dalian, China:Along with the U.S., China is one of the world's leading contributors to the greenhouse gases believed to be largely responsible for the increase in the Earth's temperature.

Venice, Italy: No stranger to flooding, Venice has invested $4.5 billion in a floodgate system that is due to open in 2012

London, England: Designed to protect London from storm surges and extremely high tides, the Thames Barrier was opened in 1984. Some analysts fear that rising oceans will create conditions beyond the capabilities the barrier was designed to meet.

Northwest Territories, Canada: Polar bears have become one of the more obvious victims of the impact of global warming. With about 23,000 square miles of Arctic sea ice melting every year, the bears' hunting grounds are shrinking rapidly. Some scientists predict polar bears will be extinct in the next century.

Welcome To My Life

2007-04-22T19:04:00.000-07:00

Do you ever feel like breaking down?
Do you ever feel out of place?
Like somehow you just don't belong
And no one understands you
Do you ever wanna run away?
Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on turned up so loud
That no one hears you screaming

No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like
To be like me

To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

Do you wanna be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desperate to find something more?
Before your life is over
Are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With their big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside you're bleeding
No you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's likeTo be like me

To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life

No one ever lied straight to your face
And no one ever stabbed you in the back
you might think I'm happy
but I'm not gonna be okay
Everybody always gave you what you wanted
You never had to work it was always there
You don't know what it's like, what it's like

To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like (what it's like)

To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No you don't know what it's like

Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life
Welcome to my life

In Loving Memory

2007-04-17T20:09:00.000-07:00

For all you people who dont read the newspaper or watch the news!, well here's and important update for ya'll. On monday, 16th April 2007, the worst massacre shoot out in american history occured in Virginia Tech University. The shoot out begun at 7.15 am..as a result of this nightmare, 33 people including the shooter died and about 16 or more were injured. This event came as a real shock to well people all around the world. Im one of many people who mourn over this tragic event. This shooting Massacre is known as one of the deadliest shooting in U.S history.

If your wondering who was responsible for this outrageous madness!!!!..well it was a south korean student Cho Seung hui,23 who was an english major at the university. Its no suprise that the boy is said to have suffered from mental illness. Students at the campus say that the boy was a loner and was also nicknamed the " question mark kid".....that kinda says alot doesnt it....NO, this boy didnt just get out of bed and said " hey, i feel like killing people today"..Cho had carefully planned this whole thing. He was also known for stalking a girls, writting really freaky play's and doing scary stuff...Overall his one CRAZY!!!!!!! boy.

The murderer

Its just really sad that so many innocent people had to die because of one mentally disturbed kid. In my opinion, the university should have taken extreme measures when this boy was showing freaky symptoms already.......Then again this is not the 1st shoot out that happen at Virginia Tech. Last year August, a shoot out occurred but luckily noone got hurt. You would think that after the columbine incident and other incident that strict measures would have been taken to prevent such catastrophy from ever happening again. *sighs*..The easy access to guns in america is a major factor to such incidents.. According to the news, this Cho guy actually bought the guns legally.

An important thing i learnt from this tragic incident that it brings out the best in some people. What im tryin to say (sum up in one word is) "heroism". Some people's quick thinking and ability to sacrifice their life was able to save many more lifes...for example this lecturer who sacrificed his life for his student. (Note: all his students able to escape safely)..the ironic part is that this proffesor survived the holocust and other stuff and ended up losing his life to a crazy boy....but many people said he died at a place he called home.....

This post is my way of showing my sadness and sympathy for the families and people who have lost either a loved one or a friend. Hopefully we do not have to face such tragedy ever again.

Driving Experience

2007-04-16T19:39:00.000-07:00

I never thought this day would come when i would actually get my license (P), for the record the date of this momentous event was 16th April 2007... i know many people would be thinking that " its only a driving license, What's the big deal??" or " What's so exciting about it"...the interesting and exciting part is that for me is that i never thought this day would actually come as i was only suppose to get my license when i was 21 & above (dont be shock), this is due to some issues my mum has with driving. Anyways ill take you back to how me (premi) who was never suppose to get her license actually and finally got it.

(flashback to January)
Since i was bumming around because i had not quite decided what to do with my life, my dad decided i should learn how to drive instead of wasting my time. At that moment i just started working at my dad's office. He thought driving was a good idea because i could help him out later (etc,...etc). I wasnt really keen on getting my license compared to when i was 17, when all my friends were in the process of getting theirs..but eventually i gave in to my dad's wishes...As you might guess, mum was not pleased about this at all..

(February)
So my dad enrolled me at Kandasamy Driving School, where practically most people go to. The whole 6 hour ceramah was such a drag and it totally killed any little motivation in me to learn how to drive. Nevertheless, i decided to just finish it and get it over and done. After passing the computer test and attending another 6 hour of torture ceramah, it was finally time for me to get behind the wheels for the very 1st time. (note: the only good thing from the ceramah was meeting new people)..

(March)
After a month,i started my driving classes...the delay was because my parents were overseas and well i was feeling a teeny bit lazy *heheh*. So at the end of march i started driving. My 1st driving class didnt turn out as bad i expected it to be. Add to which my confidence level was given a boost by my driving instructor who said i was good for a first timer *whee!!*..Then after another lesson, my classes begun at Kapar.. Gosh how i hated the Kapar lessons, this is because :

1) the 30 minute drive there was soooooo long and terrible due to bad maintenance of roads
2) my classes were in the afternoon when it was so terribly hot, i could feel the heat of the sun just burning through my skin
3) I just hated that place..*hehe*

So i finished my 10 hours of driving class which is actually suppose to be 16 hours according to the law!!!!!.. After 10 hours, the driving school will charge you extra which in my opinion is not FAIR!!! at all.*sighs*.. At the end of the 5 lessons, i still felt scared (driving is one of my many phobia's)..but with the determination to not prolong it i decided to take my driving exam.

(April)

9th April, the day of my driving exam..i had butterfly in my stomach throughout the whole journey getting there. i was really nervous. despite of feeling scared inside i had a chance to get to know a girl named Tinapriya (she did SAM but we never got the chance to talk)..i guess you could say our meeting was Faith.. Well at Kapar, my bukit was the first exam..and sad to say i did not pass my parking and NO!!! the poles did not fall..it was just that my car touch the pole without my realisation..hehe. but i did pass my "ujian jalan raya".. I felt sad and just really down because i didnt pass my bukit and had to come back to this wretched place *long sigh*

16th April, 2nd driving test (resit bukit and all)..one good thing that came out of this was i had Tina with me..she was my resit buddy!! and motivater!!..we went through the whole dillema together. As you might guess by now i did pass my bukit and everything and now im a P driver..*yippie*!!! this happiness was also felt by Tina..

(present moment)
Well there you have it, my extremely long post on how i got my driving license. To be honest, the joy and excitment you feel when you passed after experiencing failure cannot be compared to anything. i was on cloud 9..i couldnt have done it withouht my friends who believed in me also and knew i could do it (love you people!!!!)

How well do you know me??

2007-04-11T21:09:00.001-07:00

Create your own Friend Test here

hey people, why dont you take this test just to test yourself to see how well you know mua. besides i did it to pass my time since i was bored..hehe..

Sorry people for not updating my blog, im kinda back-dated in a few post, i realise that. I've been so busy that i havent had the time or the mood to actually sit down and blog.

2007-03-14T19:39:00.000-07:00

First of all i would like to express my sincere apologies to everyone because this post should have been posted a weeks ago. Due to unforseen circumstances and my busy schedule (im sure most of you'll are wondering what busy schedule) *Lol*, i just didnt have the time to blog. uploading pictures is not my favourite thing and i tend to put in a lot of effort so it takes time. Time which unfortunatetly was not on my side. So for those who were waiting for the pictures to be uploaded and all. your wait has been worthwhile....

This post is specially dedicated for my friends who made my birthday celebration at TGIF an awesome and special night. These wonderful friends are :

Prakash @ prax : Eventhough original plans was chillie's BSC and i was annoyed at you, well i guess i learnt that as long as im with my favourite people. the place does not matter at all. Its the people that make the party not the place. Thanks for the ride and all.

Hamilton @ hammy : we got to talk on the way to TGIF, eventhough you forgot my birthday *sobs*..ahah just kidding your forgiven. You still came for the party and that's all that matters. Havent met for so long so it was a good oppotunity to catch up.

Night begins with the "ultimate mudslide"

Everyone goes MUDSLIDE crazy!!!..ashley:shocked by how enormous the glass is, ashy: lost in temptation and prax :stunned by the drink already..(it went straight to the head)

Turning 19!!

2007-03-11T19:10:00.000-07:00

7th March 1988, the day i was brought into this world, given life and a purpose to live. After 19 years of existence here i am today, all grown up and matured into a young lady (at least i think i have) *hehe*. throughout this 19 years of life, i have learnt so much and have endured many good and bad times. Being able to celebrate my 19th birthday is already a BIG deal to me cause i know there are people who are not able to do so.

I am a birthday person, in normal language it means i get all excited about my birthday one month before and start making plans, eventhough my plans wont turn out quite how i expected it to be *sighs* its the whole idea and excitement which gets me all hyper and excited about my birthday. This not only happens for my birthday, i feel the same excitement for others. Some might find this awkward but to me its already a norm..im not sure whether i would still feel the same about it when im 25...ill just leave that for next time...

Although i was looking forward towards my birthday, i felt sad and disappointed with myself over certain matters. To make things worse i got bad news a day before my birthday, somehow i just didnt feel myself. Eventhough i had all this happening i decided to put it all behind for a while and enjoy my birthday well because im only 19 once isnt it. As we grow older, we have more responsibilities and more expectations set upon us. Thats the downside of turning 19.

Looking at the bright side, i did have a good day. i actually spent some quality time with my mother (shopping!!!), had lunch with friends and dinner with the family..we were missing 1 family member (miss ya sis)..got presents ( never get tired of receiving presents)...thats about it..overall it was a simple yet pleasant day.

Beware of the TAG-ness disease!

2007-03-11T18:38:00.000-07:00

At first i was kinda blur with this whole tag thing in everyone's blog. I would really like to know who came up with the tag idea in the first place. Its kinda fun in a weird way (learn more about a person) yet it seems pretty lame (maybe its just me). For those of you who are reading this blog right now and going WHAT!!!!.(no idea what tag is)..dont worry here's a brief (cut & paste) summary of what being tag is all about :

RULES:
Each player of this game starts out by giving 6 weird things about themselves. People who get tagged need to write in a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state the rules clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. After you do that, leave them each a comment letting them know you tagged them and to read your blog!

However i have one question!.i have been tagged by 3 people ( tommy, hamilton,prakash).,does that mean i have to write 18 weird things about myself?? *thinks*, heck no!!...im just going to stick with 6 weird things afterall im not that weird okay!!!!

6 Weird Things About Premi You Never Knew :

1. I have this thing with keeping papers neat and straight (no bends), anytime i lend someone a book, magazine or notes i always tell them to not bend the pages and take good care of it. the annoying part is i keep reminding them about it *hehe* (sorry people)

2. I have a driving phobia. Well im suppose to start my driving classes but im soo scared about getting behind the wheels and i keep telling myself that i will never pass my driving test *sighs*

3. I can tolerate a lot of things from most people except for one particular person,..SANJAY THAKER,.. anything sanjay does or says can get me ticked off so fast (speed of light),..lol..i have no explanation to this but its like a reflex thing. i dont find his jokes funny and i get annoyed mucho fast.

4. I dont like ice creams except for Baskin& Robbins..*thinks*, so does this mean i dont like ice creams or im just choosy or im high maintenance ( fact: DEFINATELY not high maintenance)

5. I cant pronounce the letter V only for the word VIBE. *smiles* according to Hamilton and dal that is. It all started when i tried to say the word vibe and noone on the bus understood what i was tryin to say..lol..

6. I cant have the same kinda clothes in my wardrobe, i always like to buy different kind of clothes. The only thing they all have in common is most of my clothes are black in colour..lol

Well since i strongly believe that sharing is caring im gonna tag :

1.raeyna

2. zubin

3.lisa

4.ashley

5.ashy

The Best Things In Life

2007-03-02T19:54:00.000-08:00

There are a lot of things in my life i am thankful for, i have a house which is just nice and meets my needs, parents who are able to provide me a good life and proper education and well just a whole bunch of other stuff. however i guess its human nature to somtimes question what we have, wanting more and be envious of others. I've been through it and sometimes still do it. i have had a really good week minus a few problems and all but overall everything turned out to be nice. I wouldnt have had a good week if it was not for my friends. Im not sure whether its a coincidence or what, but i have read 2 blogs in the past 24 hours and both had a post on "friends" (ashley's blog , abhilash blog).

So it got me thinking, i have met so many different people throughout my school days and recently college year. People from different walk of lives,different personalities and different characteristics. I am a person who believes and takes friendship very seriously. i am not one to give up on my friendship eventhough there were people who have given up on it. Before you start thinking that im getting all emo and all..(not the purpose of the post), i just want to say that i want to dedicate this post to all those people to have been there for me and helped me face every rock and hurdle life had throwed at me.

I tried to get pictures and all but it was kinda difficult to get some people pic..so i kinda improvised and all. So to my buddies, thankz for everything. You have left a mark in me which will last forever. Now and forever i will carry the memory we have shared and you guys are truly the best things in MY life..

1. Sanjay Thaker a.k.a. jay

Its gonna be 3 years since i know jay. His truly the best guy friend i have ever had and the one i treasure the most. you have truly been a pillar of strength in my life. We have had our share of good and bad times. Im sorry for annoying and thankz for putting up with my mood swings. You are a gem of a person.

2. Prakash Jayakumar a.k.a prax

prax is like a brother to me and hopefully my future BIL *hints* (oops to early for hints). his such a nice guy and has helped me out a lot over the past 2 years..hehe thankz dear. thankz for helping out and watching over me. your like the brother i never had. hehe.

3. Dalini raj a.k.a dal

dal is like the twin sister i would want to have. She is sweet, adorable,helpful, and i could just go on *smiles* (i wouldnt want dal to blush).We have the same taste in clothes and she's a nice person to talk to. Your my SAM buddy ahah who endured all the times i whined and whined ahaha..*hugs*.eventhough i only met you last year, it was a great year and looking forward to many more years as friends. hugs to my darling dal.

4. Raven

NO!!! raven is not hrithik roshan *lol*, due to confidential issues, im replacing his pic with hrithik, one thing they both share in common is their curly hair (dont straighten ur hair raven!) , my dear friend raven is the BIGGEST hrithik fan i have ever met. I have never met anyone like him (good thing). The story on how i met raven is well complicated *smiles*.His a good listener and has helped me out countless amount of time.We have different view and opinion but still get along well although we tend to fight alot (in a good way). Thanks raven for everything..

5. Raeyna, kaartina,Sheela & kumudhini

Were like the sisterhood, we grew up together and spent a lot of time together. We been throught so many problems yet we have come out stronger than ever. i love you guys so much. Our friendship has lasted for about 12 years and its still going strong. I really miss those times in school, those memories we have will always last and never be forgotten.

6. Ashley and Stephie

didnt have ashley pic so i put his infamous simpson picture..ahaha Ash and stephie are the cutest and funniest people lar. They always cheer me up when im feeling down. Steph i remember all those moments in tuition last time. im sorry if i bullied you or anything..love ya dear. Ash your a funny guy and sorry for all the annoying moments..

To be honest there are so many people who have played a part but due to the lack of time and writting a blog can get pretty tiring you know so ill just make it as simple as ever okay.: g12 classmates, the best classmates a girl could ever ask for,hamjay, lisa, sha sha, calmesh.

"THE BEST THINGS IN MY LIFE CANNOT BE BOUGHT"

Eklavya, The Royal Guard

2007-02-27T20:11:00.000-08:00

It was such a coincidence when my godparents took me back to curve on Sunday (25th feb) to watch this hindi movie Eklavya. The movie was playing at cineleisure and in my opinion the cineleisure cinema is the best cinema i have ever been to *loved it*..eventhough the ticket price was Rm11, the whole experience and comfort you get is worth every cent..It was certainly quite and experience ( thankz to my godparents)

I have never heard of this movie until my godparents told me about it. I was quite hesitant about going for this particular movie at first. If it was not for my trust in my godparents movie taste and me being an adventurous person (open mind) *smiles*, i wouldnt have gone for the movie. The 3rd reason was well i just didnt wanna stay at home and be bored..lol..After watchin Eklavya, i totally dont regret my decison and i dont mind watching it again..'

I am going to be very honest with you...some might not enjoy this movie as it is kinda slow and draggy at parts. It is also quite predictable at certain scenes. However the advantages certainly outweighs the disadvantages.

The good things about the movie were:

1. The different plot and story line ( it is uncomparable to any hindi movie).

2. Superb acting by cast (applause to amitabh bachan).Saif is such a HOTTIE, jimmy shergil also *blush*

3. Only 1 song in the entire movie (you read it right)..*hehe*

4. the movie was 2 hours. ( im serious)..eventhough it was slow, it was straight to the point.

*thinks* i cant seem to find the right words to explain this movie, so people just CHECK *stresses* out this website to watch the trailer and all (its not a waste of time),.

http://www.eklavyatheroyalguard.com/.

I can sum this movie up in just one word.. "beautiful"..it is truly a beautiful move...(jay you will enjoy it just as i did).If you still dont trust me...*sigh*..here are some review's.Hopefully you will change your mind.

Curve Nite Out

2007-02-27T18:20:00.000-08:00

A well planned outing + A few glitches = A perfect night out at Curve

Living in klang, and as a girl who hardly (or rarely) venture out of klg town, going to the Curve was sure a huge and exciting step. The people that took this step with me were sanjay (driver 1), prakash (driver 2), ashley (FOC guy), dalini (buddy), stephie (suprisingly..hehe) and Sash (sexy chic)..The basic idea was just chilling and spending some quality time with each other... some might think it sounds boring. On the contrary, it was far from boredom-ville.

At the Curve:

1st stop: Italiannies

Dinner at Italiannies (on the left)

Jay & Premi ( nice shot dal)

We all met up and decided to have dinner at Italiannies (italian cuisine of course). We had 2 veggie lovers, Jay and ashley (not veggie lover, it was a lent thing). So we had veggie pizza, chicken somethin pizza and some pasta stuff. Being the cheap-skate ppl we ordered 3 bottom-less drinks and was shared among 7 of us *laughs*.Sadly after dinner, sash had to go home *sobs*.

2nd stop : The Fountain

This particular fountain was discovered by jay and ashley, somewhere behind TGIF. The fascinating thing is it uses optical illusion. so if you look at the water flowing out of the the fountain,....it looks like its moving upwards instead of downwards. Its got something to do with the light frequency *blur face*..(ask ashley or jay 4 further explanation).

3rd stop : Baskin N Robbins

Premi n jay's banana split (its yummylicious). Added with MnM and gummi bear toppings

MON-day outing

2007-02-19T05:11:00.000-08:00

So its been quite sometime since my friends and i have actually hung out together and spend some quality time. Well these are my college buddies,and since its chinese new year and all, everyone is on a week break...so what better time to spend money..hehee.and chill out!!!. Raey, jeevan (raey's bro), Mua, priya (my sis), prax, dev (prax bro), Ashley (deary coll fren), dalini, stephie and Jivan (busy guy), went to jusco (bukit raja) to watch the eddie murphy movie called NORBIT. Its a comedy movie and its hillarious (after all eddie is acting in it). Hence if you ppl need to just loosen up and all.well head on down to your nearest cinema and watch it k.

The movie was at 12.20, jeevan (raey's bro) took us (raey,pri,stephie and me) to jusco. This is actually the 1st time we went for an outing with raey bro and ashley dear( he was annoying me). Everyone met up there, and well prax wanted to eat. so before the movie we went to mac'ds.......

Well most of us didnt eat cause well 11.30 was kinda too early to have lunch. Thus after the movie, Nando's was our next destination to fill our tummy.....As always, after a certain movie everyone at the table tends to talk about it.. *hehe* cant help but state my opinion of the movie now (that's da purpose of a blog rite)... I thought the movie was interesting cause:

1. eddie murphy does a triple role..and he pulls it off really well
2. Its really funny with the way they talk and all..ahaha...prax does a really good imitation of rasputia (eddie's wife)
3. The malaysian goverment actually didnt censor the speech and all.*suprised*

Since it's a public holiday, well the cinema was crowded (not suprising) but since we booked early and all. we didnt get stuck in a big queue and got pretty good seats. However one thing i have to disagree with was the U rating for the movie... technically Norbit is not a U-rated movie. with the foul languages and all, i dont think its suitable for kids.It should be 18. There were babies and young kids at the cinema... totally not appropriate (and im not sounding like a grandma)...*heheh* . I think they gotta come up with regulations to not allow kids below 10 for movies. There was this couple sitting in the row behind us and well the baby kept crying everytime eddie said the word "bitch",*thinks*..(that might have provoked the kid)..and that's not the worst part. this little girl sitting behind me, kept kicking my chair *arrgh*. I was so tempted to turn behind and ask her to sit down quitely well patience got the better of me *sighs*..I know some parents find it hard to get babysitters and all..but they have to consider other people's feeling also. Imagine watching a movie with kids crying throughout the whole movie....kinda defeats the purpose of going to the theather to relax rite???...

Whatever it is, i had an awe-some time...and due to the fact that the company was great too, the whole outing made my day. Its nice to take a step back at time and just have fun with friends. Everyone is moving on with life and well moments like this, dont come by easily....So before i head out ive got one last thing to say

HOW YOU DOING!!!!!!!..*laughs*

My look alikes

2007-02-16T23:46:00.000-08:00

so i tried out this celebrity look alike thankz to prax..ahah and to my suprise the result turned out to be GREAT...*whoppie* . I mean why wouldnt it be great, having look-alikes such as kajol( coincidence she's one of my fav bollywood actress), elizabeth hurley (damn hot wei..ahaha) eventhough its onlt 70%, its still all good *smiles*, ashley olsen *hmm* (she looks better last time, she has bad fashion sense though).,audrey tautou (da vincci code lady) and alizee (wondering who she is????), oops i nearly forgot Jeri ryan whose really pretty but doesnt ring any bells.......The weird thing is the guy look alike..BUTTTTT.. i actually have hayden (major HOTTIE!!)...*dances around* ...and conor oberst (looks awfully familiar though)....
In conclusion..i love my look alikes..eheheh...

GURU

2007-01-22T19:56:00.000-08:00

I went to watch this hindi movie last night called "guru" with my dad, sis, cousin and his wife. So here i am blogging about the movie. Cant help myself from being a movie critic..*grins*, its not always i write about a movie (last 2 i wrote about was pirates of the carribean and da vincci code), however this time the movie was too good that i couldnt resist myself from not writting about it..*hahha*..

Movie: GURU
Director: Mani ratnam
Cast: Abhishek Bachan..( reminds me of raehan)
Aishwarya Rai......(soon 2 be wedded to abhishek)
Madhavan.
Music: A.R. Rahman..(good job on the music)

*thinks*, there's a lot to say about the movie actually but wouldnt want to spoil it for those who havent watched it yet. Guru is not your typical hindi movie that's for sure.. and by typical i mean, 2 people fall in love but their love is not approved..(bla.bla bla)., fighting scenes, family stories (K3G, kal ho na ho,). It has a very different and interesting story line. Some people might not enjoy the movie but most people i know did. Its not suprising that Guru has received good reviews, after all its directed by mani ratnam (for those who are still blur abt mani ratnam, well his the one who directed BOYs., etc. etc)...Mani ratnam is known for his good and unique movies. His movies have a deeper story line and is very realistic.

What is Guru about???. its a movie that gives you an inside on buisness and the life of an industrialist. It shows the "ups" and "downs" and also how buisness can affect the people around us. There are many values which can be learnt from the movie, and lets just say when you walked out the cinema. your actually walking out with some amount of knowledge on buisness. There were certain parts of the movie which was kinda slow, but overall i would recommend people to watch the movie.

The cast of Guru also contributed and helped make it a enjoyable and pleasant movie to watch.Abishek Bachan and Aishwarya Rai do make a wonderful pair on screen and im sure they will do good off screen (seeing that they're gonna be married). In this movie, you can actually see a diff acting from abhishek compared to Dhoom 2 where he was more serious (didnt like him in Dhoom 2 ). Besides Madhavan who acts as a reporter also does potray good acting like he always does. I never actually seen him acting in a hindi movie, but he did a good job in Guru. Well no good story can be good withouht a good cast and in this case, mani ratnam sure picked a good cast. (note: Malika Sherawat makes a guest appearance as a belly dancer *not suprising*)

A.R Rahman was the music director. Eventhough i didnt really fancy all the songs, but the music and the beat was nice. One song "tere Bina" that was the nicest in that movie. A.R rahman is known for his good songs and he sure did live up to his reputation. The scenery from the movie was really nice. especially the one shot overseas, usually most hindi movies will be filmed in new york, new zealand and other places this time GURU was shot in Istanbul.

oh well, im gonna stop my rambling now.*hehehe*..bottom line is, people if you have a chance, do watch GURU cause its a good movie. (im pretty sure will win awards).

A Night To Remember

2007-01-21T20:41:00.000-08:00

20th Jan 2007, was a Saturday. It seemed like it was just another day. Me going on about my daily routines which is practically doing nothing but watching tv and relaxing. Unlike my parents who had plans for the night,(parents and younger sis were attending a dinner at a club) and my elder sis who was attending a friend's birthday party..i didnt have any plans..(so i thought)..

I was on the phone with my close friend Sanjay Thaker (nothing new)..*hehe*..and he didnt have plans too.So we both decided to go out that night since its been quite sometime since we met up and talked.The last time i saw Jay was on Friday.(24hours is a long time)..*lol*.Anyways the plan was to go out for dessert or something and check out my Salsa classes. Im planning to take Salsa Classes to make my life more interesting and not forgetting foreign language, french i guess.(prax says these are plus points when it comes to guys)..ahahah...*fingers-crossed*..

So finally i had plans of my own...Jay picked me up at about 8.30..(his a punctual person)..and we headed to Bukit Raja as the Klang Music Center where the salsa lessons were was located there. After finding out the necessary info all, we went to Bee's bakery shop to have dessert (well i would have chosen Secret Recipe)..ehehe but Bee's was fine too..*smiles*..Then we did what every normal good friends would do..we talked and talked and talked...(we have a lot to talk about) . thats kinda suprising eventhough we talked on the phone for about 1/2 hour before that..*laughs*..

I had to be home by 10 pm, so we left as soon as we were done. I got home safe and sound and most importantly in one piece..excluding the scar..(your forgiven).., I had a really great time and it meant a lot cause i wasnt in my best of mood lately. But the night was far from over, once we reached home. we decided to take a walk around my area...it was a perfect weather for a walk.(besides needed to digest my food)..im putting on weight..hehe...Well the night ended well and too me that was certainly a night to remember........

2. Damn Internet is not working (dum streamyx) and those people seem to be taking their own sweet time.

3. Watched Godfather (starring ajith and asin), interesting tamil movie but with a stupid ending *how typical*

4. Star Movies played the final episode of Star Wars : Return Of The Jedi.( Star Wars RULEZ!!)

5. Dinner at grandma's place because we have a new family member, my baby cousin bro who at the moment doesnt have a name.*hehe*...(but his SOOOOO adoraable)

6. Plan on taking Salsa Classes *yippie*, hopefully dal joins as well.(Salsa Babes)..lol..and also a foreign Language either french or mandarin.

Losing My Way

2007-01-16T22:32:00.000-08:00

I've encountered many situations where i felt that my life relates to a story in a book, a song on the radio, a tv program or movie. Im sure many people have been in my shoes before. So one of this many situations was when my friend Raehan introduced me to this song "losing my way" by the ever so popular Justin Timberlake..rae pretty much intro-ed me to a lot of other songs..and i enjoyed all of it.( rae got good taste in music)..So before i actually listened to the song, rae told me to listen to the lyrics..Most people just listen to the song for the music or because of the artist..but the true beauty of the song lies in its lyrics..(exceptional for Eminem songs, Akon's bad version of i wanna love you, the list goes on)..heheheh...

So after listening to the song,i realised that it could relate to the situation i was in. In Justin's word i was 'losing my way' , well not sure whether many have heard this song, its a real nice song (go dwnld it)..well below is the lyrics to the song. Hope other people can relate to it just like me,

Hey excuse me
Hi my name is Bob and I work at my job
I make forty-some dollars a day
I used to be the man in my hometown
'til I started to lose my way
It all goes back to when I dropped out at school
Having fun, I was living the life
But now I got a problem with that little white rock
See I can put down the pipe

And...

And it's breaking me down
Watching the world spin round
While my dreams fall down
Is anybody out there?

It is breaking me down
No more friend around...
And my dreams fall down...
Is anybody out there?

Can anybody out there hear me?
'Cause I can't seem to hear myself
Can anybody out there see me?
'Cause I can't seem to see myself...
There's gotta be a heaven somewhere
Can you save me from this hell?
Can anybody out there feel me?
'Cause I can't seem to feel myself
(chorus)
Losing my way
Keep losing my way...
Keep losing my way...
Can you help me find my way?
Losing my way
Keep losing my way
Keep losing my way...
Can you help me find my way?

Now you gotta understand I was a family man
I would have gave anything for my own
But I couldn't get a grip on my new found itch
So I ended up all alone
I remember where I was when I got my first buzz
See I thought I was living the life
And the craziest thing is I'll probably never know the color of my daughter'seyes

And it is breaking me down
Watching the world spin round
While me dreams fall downIs anybody out there?

It is breaking me down
No more friend around...
And my dreams fall down...
Is anybody out there?

Can anybody out there hear me?'
Cause I can't seem to hear mysel
fCan anybody out there see me?'
Cause I can't seem to see myself
There's gotta be a heaven somewhere
Can you save me from this hell?C
an anybody out there feel me?'
Cause I can't seem to feel myself.

(chorus)
Oh my god please forgive me (father hear my pray)'
Cause I know I've done some wrong in this life
If I could do it all again
Have just one more chance
To take all those wrongs and make them right

Can anybody out there hear me?
'Cause I can't seem to hear myself
Can anybody out there see me?'
Cause I can't seem to see myself
There's gotta be a heaven somewhere
Can you save me from this hell
Can anybody out there feel me?
'Cause I can't seem to feel myself.

(Repeat above)

(Chorus)

L.O.V.E

2007-01-15T18:56:00.000-08:00

Scenario 1:

(a boy and a girl walking along the beach under the bright moonlight on a cold winter's night)

Boy: we have known each other for quite sometime now, and well i would like to take this relationship to the next level
Girl: *takes a deep breath*
Boy: i am willing to give you anything and i promise to make you happy..
Girl: (still in silence)
Boy: I love you with all my heart...would you be my GF
Girl: yes, i love you to.

-the end-

I am sure, almost each and every one of us have come across or been in this situation...(ok maybe not under the moonlight and stuff)..im talking about being in love. Or do we think that we are in love but it might be a different feeling altogether. What is Love??? yeah im sure we could look up the dictionary and find its definition, but i personally feel. each indivual has their own definition to the word LOVE...In my opinion, its a sign of feeling incomparable to any other, where you put your partner ahead of you and your willing to sacrifice yourself for your partner.....however i strongly believe that the word LOVE is very much overated these days......

Having watched movies such as Titanic, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai..we all wish to be in that situation.( not the sinking ship of course..that's a big NO!).... We dream to have someone to love so much and loves us back equally or more...it would be a plus if it was like hrithik roshan, or orlando bloom *dreams*..(coming back to reality)..we just have to make do with what we have. We must not fail to realise that life is not like in the movies. It is more real than ever before and also when it affects us, the feeling is so much more realistic.

I wouldnt deny that i have said the word LOVE well countless amount of time, but howelse would i explain the feeling i have. Is love and true love the same thing??..how would u differenciate it??..Given a situation where a guy has had 3 or 4 gf, does that mean he has been in love 3-4 times???..Lets say person A was in a 3 month relationship, can person A justify that he/she was actually in love??...Most of us including me have actually misunderstood the meaning of LOVE..till today im still figuring it out. I guess i just longed for someone who would treat me special, make me happy..etc.etc.etc..(dont all of us want that)...i believe the true meaning of love is much deeper than that..i would like to salute all those people i know who have been in a relationship for 2 years or more, its a great thing to having gone through so much and still being able to maintain your bond..i guess these ppl must truly be in love......

Falling for someone can bring so much happiness and joy to not only yourself but to others, it makes you feel a whole lot different.There are times when the relationship will not work out, during this period of time things will get rough and the aftermath of it will leave one party heartbroken. Some might even lose faith in love but always remember that you have to go through a few rotten apples to finally taste a sweet one. And at that point of time, you will cherish every single bite of that sweet apple.

So for those single people in search of love or giving up on it..just take note that there is someone out there for each and everyone of us. Some might have already found their ONE and some might not,.just dont lose faith and look at the bright side of things. Falling in love does not happen overnight but when it does happen, it makes every single tear shed, every heartbroken moments, every scar worthwhile....

Love is like age, it matures as we get older....

A Day In My life.....

2007-01-14T17:54:00.000-08:00

Well im basicly a really simple girl..(i know some might deny.hehe)..but i really truly am one. A day in my life would go something like this.........

Since i havent started my higher education like my other friends..(the a-levels ppl who are continuing their program, cal doing his accounting thingy in sunway, dalini leaving me for brickfields to do law, hamjay whose in TCPJ..oh and mathan also..my classmates in monash, TCSJ and basicly the list goes on)...i am well pretty much doing nothing..well in other terms im just " bumming" around....However since 2 weeks ago, my dad has somehow convinced (money involved..ehehe) to come work for him at his office. I also agreed since doing something was so much better than staying at home, gettin up late, watching tv, using the computer, chatting.....*hmm*..ok i might be wrong..lol....anyhow, i am currently working for my dad in his engineering office.

For those who know me well, i am sure you would be thinking " i thought your dad was a doctor", welll he still is practicing but he likes to get involved in other stuff too..its pretty complicated lar..so i will spare you the unnecessary complication. Getting back to topic, my day is basicly at my dad's office..and what is it that i do in the office you might ask????....here's a little summary...

1. opening up..(inclusive of on the lights, switches,etc./)
2. on the computer and get connected to the internet.
3. stare blankly and wait for someone to give me some work to do.....
4. if i do have work to do, i usually finish it in 2 hours
5. check my emails, frenster and as you can see blogging
6. Sms my friends...

Basicly it can be boring but the good part to it is that im gettin paid for all this..ahahah...I go back home from 12- 2 for my lunch break and then come back to continue " work" till 5..... I really look forward going back to my home sweet home..as soon as i reach home, i head for my comfort zone.(my bed) to get some shut eye.(1 hour sleep)...this is followed by me watching tv, having my bath, dinner time and using the computer....therefore it can be concluded that im pretty much a very simple girl, going about doing her simple things in her simple day...although once in a while my life can be not so simple.

What Live Has In Store For Me

2007-01-10T18:42:00.000-08:00

Its been 4 days since my last post. i've been busy trying to sort out my life more towards the education aspect. Not a day passes by without me missing my college life, my friends and well my lecturer's. Taylor's college..oops its now known as Taylor's University College was truly a memorable experience which i will treasure. As we grow older, things seem to be more complicated, i guess its because we're taking on more responsibities. Like in primary school and secondary, our path was already laid in front of us...sit for UPSR, followed by PMR and then SPM...after that the journey gets tough...especially when it comes to deciding our career.. I have to admit that i really envy those who already know what they want to do with their lives and well have gone on to pursue it. i guess some of us are late bloomers...*sigh*.

For me college wasnt that much complicated either, all i had to do was sit for my South Australian Matriculation. Now since that's done, and results is out..its time for me to decide my future....Questions! questions! question!..my mind is filled with them....im a person who naturally thinks a lot....thats what my friends also say...its not like thinking is a bad thing but over thinking is not good too.....Since young, i wanted to do medicine and specialise in radiology like my mum. but after not many encouragement i started doubting my choice....so i opened my options to well a whole lot of stuff...but then i really disliked physics and maths, that basicly eliminated a lot of things and im down to health sciences again....Thus after much delibration i decided to study Dentistry...why u ask?..well cause:
1. its a growing field and is in high demand
2. im a person who always wants to do new things, ..i know you might be thinking that dentist only pull out teeth and thats their daily routine..well my friends..im going to SPECIALISE
3. it has more flexibility compared to medic. thus it will give me more ME time..
4. it has a good pay.
5. seems interesting, might even open my own clinic..lol.

Although i really dont find it a fascination looking into people mouth, well im tryin to look at the bright side of it.i mean how bad can it be????...*yikes*..i seriously never thought dentistry would be my choice...it just came to me a week ago. im still feeling nervous and having butterflies in my stomach, but im tryin not to think abt it. Ever since my results. people have been tellin me everything happens for a reason, honestly it really doesnt help much..however im just takin it and basicly see what happens.

At the moment, im tryin to apply for uni's and well lets just say things arent going to well. a word of advice, during college people might tell you that you still have time to think about your future..believe me that's not true..My advice is well use every second of every moment and look up the internet on what you wish to do in your future, because last minute entrance into uni will be a disaster...(speaking out of experience)..

life is full of mystery,
we are the detectives,
to uncover and unfold the mysteries life has in store for us.

Entering the world of blogging

2007-01-06T07:16:00.000-08:00
