Clarence House

Early wishes to the special people born on the 22nd of April. 

We often argue over small matters, like who gets to hold the remote control, which channel to watch, how to cook a dish, where to pick me up, where and what to eat for lunch, gets pissed when I can't decide something so simple, etc. But at the end of the day, we are who we are and we truly cherish the relationship between us. Sometimes, out of nowhere, we do nice stuffs for each other and sometimes, mood swings. Lol. Big man, all the very best to you in your big exam and everything else. Happy Birthday la :)

Also, happy birthdays to Vi Vian, Div and Melvin. Have a blast with whatever drinks you want, it's your big day =). Vi Vian must have had the greatest most wonderful gift already, getting to scream her lungs out at JB's concert tonight. Haha.

And, Happy Earth's Day. Take quick showers, sleep without the air-cond, cut down on onlining and web-surfing, cut the hair blowing, maybe walk to college. Well, at least just for a day? :) you know what to do. 

We will never really appreciate what we have until they are really gone. Good day, amigos. 

Sing You Home

A good deed is a good deed. It doesn't cancel off the bads. :)

My brother and I stumbled upon a strip of movie tickets in front of the cinema. Rio, 4.45pm. Being me, I panicked but the lil' one was cool as cucumber. I picked it up from the dusty ground despite knowing that many pairs of eyes were on us. He said, lets wait at the entrance and see if anyone's finding their tickets. Okay, good idea. We were like hungry hawks searching for our preys, looking for two-adults-two-children crowd. After about fifteen minutes, I wanted to give up because it had passed the screening time. Thank goodness, when we passed by the popcorn-buyers queue, I saw a lady searching frantically for something in her bag of junk food and her daughter sobbing beside her so I quickly approached them. It was super brief. Excuse me, did you lost your tickets? Yes! I think this is yours.. Oh, thank you! And we went separate ways, both parties feeling so good.

Friday, Friday.. Can't wait for Friday :D. Gonna get super tanned, fat and.. fat. Just updated my playlist with songs of the past, present and future. Lol. It's raining very heavily now.. Feel like sitting by the window and enjoy the harsh breeze and the smell of the freshly cut grass. Coldplay's What If is playing on the record over and over again. Let it be. Next Tuesday onwards, it's gonna be busy. Four bucks per hour. Challenging me? Wait, you see la. Haha. Have a great midweek. 22nd April is a big day. Adios. 

As usual, food. Kim Gary :)

Yesterday, two hours flew with Old Town's Enrich Chocolate and stories about Will & Kate. =)

 Meanwhile, checked this for bro. He's into him :P

'Every life has a soundtrack. All you have to do is listen.'

Spring. Dusk. Sun.

Tuesday was insane. I courageously took the train and bus myself. Three of us went for sushi and then I walked the whole pyramid alone. I bought stuffs for everybody like it's Christmas :). I've been wanting the charity charm bracelet since last month. A shirt for second bro. Flip flops for the lil' one. S-shaped hook for mom haha. The red Elmo sweater is so adorable but no, some other time. It's funny how the people in Subang and Klang differ so much when they're not even that far apart. I went in Dorothy Perkins, for fun, and the lady was so friendly although I didn't purchase anything. 

:) :) :)

I don't know. I saw people snapping so =)

These pictures kinda give me goosebumps but I like it. Even without much light, photos can still be captivating. Same goes to life. 

Afif, Manoj, Boon, Soon, Canny. Debater, penyajak, hometown warrior, humble pie and good-postured lady. One word to describe them, funny. I said, maybe I should wear tie too and Afif was like, Girls wear tie? Hawtt.. Haha.

Hyper. Div's classmate :)

A Little's Enough

It's never too early nor too late

The weekend was a lot of fun. Seriously. On Friday night I was like a half-broken-down zombie on the couch, barely moving and eyes half opened. Mom was like, "Kern Yeung, go sleep if you're tired. Tomorrow wake up early, go market." I jumped up right away, "What tired?!", sat up straight and continue watching American Idol. Omg Pia sang that song, that song, that songgg. You make me feel, you make me feel, you make me feel like a natural woman.. Hahaha. Till now, I didn't bother to find out the actual song's title and singer, it doesn't really matter, does it. After that it was Casey's turn to shine and I got distracted. I'm no tech-savvy girl so tech gadgets can really get me mentally and emotionally challenged, sometimes. =). Typing on the QWERTY keyboard..lol never mind.

Saturday, I did get up early for the 'market trip'. The lil' one went to Raja Zarina so there's only me and the rulers. Tiring. Really, everything has to be weighed so lots of trip to the weighing counter and the trolley kept getting fatter and fatter. I think I really, REALLY do have a thing for cheese. I dragged mom to the dairy section and we both kinda hung out there for ten minutes, looking at cheese alone. By the way, I baked cheesecake last Monday and they wiped it all clean like starving soldiers. I used the ready-packed mix from the bakery shop beside Delta Eng Ann. Ah, easy peasy. Then, we Delta gang met up at Aeon and sang with all the love we've got. We didn't get to have a proper lunch together though, due to the sucky Saturday traffic. It was great meeting up and spending time with them. :)

After everyone went back, I hung around while waiting for my parents and the lil' one to come to go for dinner then movie. Oh lord, the strangest thing happened to me in MNG. The salesgirl was so extraordinarily sweet and friendly. She asked me how old am I, what am I studying, my opinion about her learning photography, what I think about being a doctor, my lifestyle, etc. I started feeling uncomfortable and fishy about her and when I was about to leave the shop, she caught up with me and asked for my name and contact number. She said can we be friends. What?! I really didn't want to be mean but.. I kinda did a not-so-pleasant deed and I feel bad about it, but relieved at the same time. Con cases like this happens all the time. Mom always remind me to take extra precaution but I usually just brush her off thinking it wouldn't happen to me. But then again, maybe I was just being paranoid.

I told mom everything as soon as I could because I couldn't keep it to myself any longer. So, we had Vietnamese food for dinner, yummy. The funny part was the 'gila-gila' waiter named James. He was like the hyper type of person, very nice, it was so enjoyable to see him. He will sing while wiping the table, serving and cleaning. Then there's another Hong Kong-ish macho type guy. His name is Bruno, yes Bruno. There's still time so we lepak-ed at Padini. I told myself not to buy anymore clothes, no more t-shirts, no more hoodies, no more shorts, no more belts, no more ballet shoes. I was doing good, controlling my shopping desire. But bummer, mom asked me to try on a few shirts and she paid for it. We watched The Ghost Must Be Crazy, the queen's royal request. At the beginning, you could laugh every three seconds, it was so hilarious, better if you understand Hokkien. The second part is more mellow and realistic, conveying a certain message. It was okay if all you needed was a good laugh.

Sunday, had trouble waking up early in the morning to help mom cook. We took off slightly late to Fairy Park, the traffic was smooth as light whipped cream. The usual protocol and then we spent some time enjoying the variety of delish food. At noon, dad fetched us three to Aeon again. We watched Source Code. My bro described it as Inception-ly similar. This time, lil' one got himself a long sleeve formal shirt. We ate at Lavender for the first time, their steamed coconut milk rice is really good. Thumbs up. Me and food, how did we get so close hmm :). Grandma went on a one-day trip to eat some famous thing in Sungai Buloh with a troop of friends. She bought back for us the very famous and scrumptious beggar's chicken and glutinous rice which has loads of oysters, dried prawns and duck egg yolks in it. That was supper =D. Killer.

This is a very lengthy post huh. Haha, very seldom. On a more emotional part, we had a girl-to-girl talk yesterday. I learned so much, it means so much to me, I really felt her and I believe she feels the same way too. She said something, I don't know if it really went through her conscious mind but whatever happens, I'm not letting that happen, never. Someone said this, we assume different roles as we go through the chapters in our lives- as a child, a daughter, a friend, a wife and a mother. It is my turn to grow up and to give, love and nurture.

My first was on the 22nd of February 2009. My second was on the 5th of April 2011. :) I love them both just the same.

Secret handshake

Isn't it just perfect. A friday night, the chilly cold weather right after the rain, a comfy bouncy sofa to lay on lazily, the fan spinning above me gracefully without a single drop noise, good drownful music playing in the background. But, there's still one thing that is missing, a durian with spiky hair and sharp beard. Nonetheless, tonight is good, almost perfect. Ti amo =)

Sixteen down

I followed dad around Klang the other day to pay the bills and went to the bank and so many places. Paying bills can be a pain in the neck on top of it being a very troublesome chore already when the fellas behind the desk serving you has PMS-esque attitude. I kinda embarrassed myself too with the ticket machine thing. Thank god a kind uncle helped me while the clerk just sat there and didn't even bother. And ironically, I was amused when I saw the drive-thru counter at Syabas and TNB. I mean, wow we don't need to get down of the car? Haha great. Erhmph. It was a hot day.

 Sixteen! =)

Two outs , bases loaded
you crouch, tense, as if it were
a major life crisis

Fuzzy Blue Lights

Time to bid adieu..
