A Place You Belong to ....

Finally, things are falling into places again. New environment, new social life, new friends and so many more. I am glad that I can write again, in my blog after such long long M.I.A. Of course, many events took place in my life for the past couple months as it is really hard to put in words because it was so overwhelming. From graduation in March, which my family was able to attend, to my very first new job in April, trying to fit in to this whole new working schedule and culture, to a short H.K trip during raya and so many Yum cha session, catching up on friends. All these made me realized again how much I am loved by family and friends. I still remember last year today, I was in Japan, struggling and having so many doubts towards my future, with all the fear and uncertainties. But it's over for now and I have better picture in my mind, hoping it will turn out the way I hope. Yet, keep reminding myself even when things didn't turn out the way I hope, it's not the end of the world. Maybe a better opportunity is waiting for me somewhere. I am still keeping my thoughts positive, no matter what and even for the worst.

Like my new display??
In fact, those cookies were specially made for me and Pchan
and so it deserve to be on the wall for display to let the whole world know ^^
how much SHE loves us ^^

on the other hand, just a quick update on myself, i'm going for a interview this sunday so wish me luck ><

p/s: CONGRATS to a friend of mine IZARU for making it to Utsunomiya U. U definitely deserve it after all the hard work!
(not sure if he is reading this but I'm really for him ^^)

happy belated 2010

Firstly, a happy belated new year to my fellow and friends and may this meant a good start for everyone and everything. ^^
My main goal this year would be 有言実行, which means taking count in everything I said, such as keeping promises etc..

I was away during new year with my friends, had BBQ right next to Mt. Fuji in winter, totally unforgettable experience.
And i hope it meant a good start for more great things to come^^.

go gaga over barbies >.<

It's oh so crazy !! in a good way ^^

So this is X'mas and what have I done

Got an e-mail yesterday from the company that I'm applying saying I'm not right for the job bla bla bla. Well, it's not the first time already so i've goten used to it. Like they all say, rejection does make you stronger. It can be very painful at first, but eventually time will heal everything and you just have to keep on trying. Unfortunately, i've been slowing down a lot. I'm sure what I'm looking for, but I'm still confused should I continue to do what I'm doing right now or think else wise. It's already December, which means there goes 2009 and hi to 2010, but honestly looking back to those 11months, it's been a very stressful year for me, mentally. Still, I'm lucky enough to have my family to support my back and friends to cheer me up. Also, I made sure I spent as much time with my dear friends since we might be going parted ways after graduation next March. Kinda of sad though, which means no more summer holidays, student price etc. On the other hand, me and my ladies already have plans for New Year and the following days to come. Some traveling here and there, maybe. So, right now I'm putting most of my effort into planning this instead. And do you want to know what's my favorite quote for the moment and maybe for the rest of my life:


[ LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO BE ANYTHING BUT HAPPY. SO KISS SLOWLY, LOVE DEEPLY AND FORGIVE QUICKLY.TAKE CHANCES, GIVE EVERYTHING AND FORGET THE BAD IN THE PAST. JUST REMEMBER WHAT IT ALL TAUGHT YOU.] author:unknown

Growing up

One day, a little girl promised her mum to help her with grocery shopping so off she went in her little white shining bike.
She was being careful, not to knock over passer-by and always look out for cars, left, right and left again.
But she did not saw the small steps ahead and CRash !!
The little girl fell from her bike.
Ouch as she felt the pain, her hand and knee were bleeding.
Tears were flowing in her eyes but she did not cry and she won't.
Because she taught she ain't little anymore. a big girl strong enough to stand up on her own and wipe off the dirt on her dress. She could had cry and just ran home to her mummy but she did not.
The little girl already promised to help her mum with the grocery and she will fulfill the promise
And she did,feeling proud and forgetting the pain.

-THE END-

U.ME.DA

I realized I haven't been doing any proper updates lately and even if I do, it would be a really emo post, which can be boring, upsetting and all. Somehow I just lost the urge to update my blog lately ><>

Well, the conclusion is I can'tpromise I'll update regularly but I will try to make it as interesting as possible, like putting in more happy events, and maybe once in a blue moon, when I'm not in the good mood or shape, all my feelings will start pouring out again ><

**************

Yesterday, I'm fortunate enough to able to hang out with my girlfriends in Umeda. It was just one of those moments I enjoyed so much and hoping for another round, soon ^^

Got dragged into posing at this spot because of the poster behind: "the proposal" movie which we both love ><

my dinner which consist of soba and tempura^^

for finishing, a cup of green tea is a must.

when we are all stuffed, we got all energetic to do things

like Joanne showing off her skin or.....

Pchan giving her best smile ^^

last but not least, CAMWHORE.

this was the first pic that we took, which also turns out to be the most proper one.

We used the smile detector so the rest was not in best shape ><

we were trying to act serios here but it turned out so not us.........

for this final pic, we look so peaceful or should it be tired from

all the smiling><

a special remark here: Joanne with her PCK boots, best in Osaka cos

she got it in a very good deal of 950 yen !!

-THE END-

Desires...r endless

I wanna be more hardworking

I wanna be more alert

I wanna be more slim

I wanna be more inspired

I wanna be smarter

I wanna be more energetic

I wanna be more talkative

I wanna be less careless

I wanna be more carefree

I wanna be more useful as being a human being

that's all I can think of at the moment.

7 years from now ~

updates: 2016 will be a big year for Brazil ~

Tokyo got lost in the 2nd round of voting for baing the host to 2016 Olympic.

During the 1st round, Chicago got lost and now is down to Madrid and Rio De Janeiro.

Despite which country will be hosting the Olympics, I'm sure they'll put on a good show because the whole world is watching.

Honestly, I was kinda of hoping Tokyo would win ><

Probably because I'm living in Japan right now and seeing all the effort they put through, why not.

But, Tokyo had the fair chance of hosting the Olympic in 1964 so maybe they should the give the chance to other countries as well.

I'm currently watching it LIVE for the announcement.

In the same time, I'm wondering will Malaysia ever has the chance to host the Olympic.

Well, you will never know . there's always a maybe ><.

what is on my mind -.-

I assume my dear readers are understanding people and will once again forgive my M.I.A,

or perhaps this happend too often that no one cares after all ><

My current status is I'm back in Osaka.

After spending more than a month lazying around at home,

stuffing myself non-stop that everything I put on makes me feel ugly><>

But I guess it's never too late to start eating healthier and walk that extra miles^^

Honestly, I think I'm in a huge mess right now><

I don't mean my room,well maybe except for my closet lol

Things to be done and fix are piling up but I just don't feel like going through them,for now.

Luckily, I managed to get my butt up to work this morning.

Well, at least i did something useful ><

p/s: i miss home already lol

I can smell it already ^0^

Current Location: at home sweet home in Kepong^^, not in Osaka anymore~

I'm back, AGAIN !! for the summer, staying till late September *^^*

honestly, I wasn't planning to be back again so soon, only four months apart but all thanks to MAS for the oh so affordable air tickets that are just hard to resist ><

Unfortunately, I am down with a severe flu right now so I'm trying to avoid the outside world as much as possible. Still, I can't stay home for too long with those temptation coming from outside world, yum cha session is a must, plus strolling along One U ^^

But I have no complains at all being home. Because I don't have to do my laundry, no cleaning and best of all, no cooking !!! All I need to do is just ask :"Mummy, what's for breakfast/lunch/tea-time/dinner ???? "

Plus, my big bro and lil'sis are willing to drive me around. And again all I need to do is, 'Ask'

On the other hand, I wanna do another picture post about my recent trip to the beach but the internet connection at home doesn't allow ><><

Well,looks like I'll have to make another round to Starbucks.

Oh, I heard mum is calling me for lunch now and I can already smell it,

the smell of " WELCOME HOME :) "

B.I.A ^^

Looking back on my last update- July 6, looks like I've been M.I.A for almost a month ><

I do have to admit, I am not a very consistent blogger but you guys out there will still read my blog right ? no matter how boring or how long it takes me to update.

Well, a quick recap what I've been up to these days:

July

1~3th: off to Tokyo for some serious matter+ shopping in Harajuku

4th: I declare my very own Movie Marathon Day !!! And on the top of my fave list would be the latest Pixar or Disney animation [ Up ] , which i find it hillarious yet heart-warming. I've already started crying since the opening..

5~6th: H'ppy Birthday to Big Bro & Lil' sis

7th: Class in the morning and off to work in the evening. Long day~

8th: Suppose to be going to work but I sort of lied to my manager, making excuse, although I felt bad after that and promised myself not to do it again ><

9th: Assigments till 3am ><

10th : Finally, my favorite day of the week 'TGI -Friday'. No class !! No work!!

11th: school's Summer festival. Arrived in school by 9am to help out which reminds me the last time I attend was 2 years ago and this would be my final

12th: Workaholic I am for the day.Work in the morning and work in the evening.

13th: Anothe long day ahead working but the only thing that made my day was free sampling of New limited time only Mos Curry Chicken Burger ^^

14th: buzy day ahead with school and work. New Tv drama was on, story about a vampire boy, sounds interesting which also reminds me of another similiar story, which became a big hit and I can't wait for the second part coming in Nov ><>

15th :as usual, work in the morning and off to school later on.

16th: another free sampling from Mos: Rika chan Soft-cream

17th: Happy Friday again ^^

18th: off to school on a Saturday for a class event, the good thing is i don'y have to go for work.

19th: the long awaited , Date with my girlz. How i wish this day would last forever

20th: another assigment waiting to be done while I keep on making silly mistakes during work ><

21th: As always, Tuesday is another long day for me.

22th: Off to Tokyo, yup again taking the night express. Long trip making my butt looking flat and square than ever.

23th: 1st time in Ginza. Finally, I get to visit this place well known for carrying exclusive brand names from all over the world. I didn't enter those stores, just looking through the display window, eyes wide open O^O

sorry for all the boring pics because I was more focus on looking around, trying to catch every glimpseof the street with my own eyes instead of grabbing the camera ><

this would have to be my favorite pic of the day- another Johnny's group named Tegomasu ><

one word: ~Kawaii ~

another excitment of the day in Ginza was this Mos cafe !!

it's very deffirent from the one that I'm currently working.

Even the pay is better over here !! Well, because is Ginza , i guess><

even the menu is totally different as they not only serve burgers with fries, but proper meals too. I had a hard time deciding on what to have and finally went with this teriyaki with avocado and wasabi sauce. the taste all right but the portion was too little for the price of 77oyen (=around Rm28)

but the Mango smoothie was well worth it ^^

24th: Back to Ginza again, for an interview.

Shinjuku station where I always get lost except for this time. looks like i've become wiser after all ^^

the new drama starring Takizawa Hideaki and Ryo Nishikido was all over the place.

I missed watching the 1st episode.The story was something about between good and evil.

I think you can guess from the poster who is the devil and angel respectively ^^

25th: Back to Osaka. Unfortunately, I'll be home alone for the weeks to come as my roomies are all headed back to hometown already ><

26th: G0t my butt out of bed early and headed to work till dawn :(

27th: it was raining heavily when I was getting ready to get off my work and head to the next one. Luckily, I got a free ride from my colleague

28th: first day of test !!!

29th: had two test today which was definitely did not went well

30th : which is today !! Just finish watching ny fave show Arashi no Shukudai-kun. I just can't get enough of them nowdays ><

to the wushu fighter of Cheng family :Happy Birthday!!!

Before today ends, I have another birthday post coming up and that is:

{Happy Birthday, Bro ＼＊＾０＾＊／}

I guess I seldom mention about him in my blog but that doesn't mean we aren't close　because the truth is, we are very very close. As in I will ask him for advice on certain topic and one of it would be the L.O.V.E sick thing . Well, I have to admit he knows way better than me when it comes to this, plus hearing out from a guy opinion is necessary too, right??!

But, thinking back we weren't that close up till standard 6 ><

I hated him deep into the bones back then, and we fought 24/7, physically as well and I always lost,

which I hated it a lot.we never agreed with each other on anything and everything.

But it all changed when we entered secondary school.He seemed friendlier, and more approachable. And till today the only reason I can think of for the changes that happend was because he was so in love and thank god for that ><

Without realizing, I got influenced by my bro a lot while growing up especially when it comes to music.

Lets see, I became a huge fan of Spice Girls after listening to their first album which he bought it and so does Backstreet Boys. I started to listen to J-pop music when he bought the Speed album. Every story ended the same, me being the ultimate fan while he moves on to something else. And eventually, I will soon follow suit ><

As for today, I am so thankful for having a big brother like you to joke around, to be my love doctor, to annoy me sometimes, and as my 'spokeperson' ><

Btw, I wish I can have some of your PR skill ><

Why it isn't in my blood although we are siblings? not fair >0<

p/s: Dear bro, if you don't mind, this post will make up as ur b'day presen,k ??!

Happy Sweet 19th lil'sis !!

Today marks the big day for the youngest member of Cheng family,

which is my little sister :

[Happy 19th Birthday,Kher Ye!!!! ]

Although you are the youngest in the family,

at times I felt that you are the most mature one among us.

It is also no lie that you work harder than anyone else to achive what you want

and what you deserve.

Being the elder one, I sometimes felt ashamed that instaed of me giving you advice,

you are the one that is always watching my back, telling me the right thing to do.

we used to fight a lot when we were kids and we still do,

but we could never stay mad at each other for long.

I guess that's what sisters are for.

Thanks for always being involved in part of my fantasies for everthing and making sure

I don't fall too deep into it.

I'm always the forgetful and you were always there to remind me, even though we are so far apart now.

Thank good there is Skype too ><

As I had promised you before, your present is on the way.

Since you trusted my sense and taste in fashion, how could I ever let you down on it, right ??

Well, at least now I know I'm good at something, keeping promises^^

Hope you had a great day ahead and the rest of the year as well ~

T stands for Tokyo !!

After my recent emo post, I did a lot of thinking and I even went for a haircut.Well, more of a trim.

Getting rejected is the worst feeling in the world but somehow it made me stronger.

Since the first one shut me out, I'll just have to move on and keep on knocking all those doors till someone answers me. But I wonder how long will that take??

Well, moving on, I just came back from Tokyo yesterday morning.

It was a trip alone and despite of all the fears, I came back alive.

I'm a survivor, getting through all the hustle bustle especially in Shinjuku.

The crowd is something I can never get used to><

the worst part of all, me with no sense of direction.

Getting lost while trying to locate the locker, running back and forth on the exact same spot ><

Despite being a business trip, I still get my share of fun and also the highlight of the trip- SHOPPING and boy was I on the right timing, It's the season of Sale.

As you all expect, I did quiet some damage but no feeling of guilt at all.

Well, maybe a little ><

*******************

On my 2nd day, as I had all the time to myself so is time to explore Harajuku

, which is also something that I wanted to do for a very long time.

1st stop was Takenoshita Doori, a place where all the young people hang out,

with the latest trend and fashion in afforadable price.

something that was hard to miss ><

F21, something that we are very familiar back home which just made it in shore to Tokyo recently and causing a big hit.

on the weekends, you have to line up just to get in the store and my friend did: an hour !!!

lucky for me, it was a thursday so I enter the store with no sweat,

only to realize there was another warzone inside.

the crowd was horrible and people were pushing.

my main event of the day and the trip, although that is not how I told my dad><

H&M is also another retail store that is causing waves around Japan especially in Tokyo

and I'm so excited there are coming to Osaka early next year !!

I did most of my shopping here as they were Sale !!

the one word that can keep my heart pumping faster then ever ><

my final stop for the day: Johnny's store Harajuku

I had the hardest time locating this store as it was away from the crowded street, kept away in a quiet little lane.

A little something I got for myself , since I'm already there><

Dessert: vanilla ice-cream with the ever-amazing unforgettable best caramel sauce in the world.

I really mean it.

Time to show off part of my bargain from H&M

And the only item i got from F21 because I shopped too much in H&M

[A big thank you to my dear friend Iza here for letting me stay over at her place and the warm hospitality]
