Back fom family dinner... as always...

Just came back from dinner thrown by Auntine Emily and her husband supposedly to celebrate the end of their bakery. Oh well, as usual, too much food and not enough drink...

Can those of you who have a blog to write something there? heheheh :D You see, I don't have any fun things to do on the weekend so I rely on your blog for some comedic relieve hehehehe

Anyway, heaps of work to do tomorrow or so.W

Cel, my darling sis, COME BACK QUICK!!!

ARGH!!!

it's only been 6 hours and i'm nearing the end of my wits...
ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

can't ppl just go to bed and sleep???

ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ARGH!!!!!! Secretly hoping to be able to scream at the top of my lungs and punch the sand bag with the full force of my weight (should be quite amazing!) or bat my best and hit a homerun all the way to pluto or shoot a shot gun so straign the bullets go straight through to the next galaxy and collapse it...

Unlike my sister who shows her emotions on her face, I tend keep them underwraps. I know... it's not doing me any good and I don't need a shrink to tell me that...

Cel come back soon, I need you here (even though maybe after 2 weeks I'd wanna choke you to your death!!!) I can't deal with this on my own.

Anyway I'm spending the evening alone with my dad. Since when does having a glass of wine at the end of the night to chill considers turning into an alcoholic? I know it's not about the alcohol. We can all handle that.

On one very rare occasion, George W. Bush was right about one thing when he said he wasn't going to comment on the gay marriage issue. He said he's not gonna comment on the gay marriage issue because he's a sinner himself and he's really in no place to comment on other people's. Well, I know at least drinking to chill wasn't a biblical sin.

It's baseball bat... all I feel is baseball bat... and I can feel that it's progressing to auto machine guns very quickly... bypassing the shotguns... Only one person in this world know what I'm talking about... so you better take this as a 000/911/999 call!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know... I know... nothing much I can do... I just wanna write and express and release...

Finally I have money to use!!!

Just another regular Thursday and I'm chilling home alone!!!

I have finally sorted out some of the Paypal problems I've been having and able to withdraw money from my account!!! It's quite a relieve since it's really frustrating seeing all the money in the account and can't use any of it! I must admit I did a little shopping today after restocking from my suppliers. But hey, it's not a splurge just getting around doing regular stuff... so not exactly an extravegance or something!!! Feeling much better now and not as stressed.

My sister was right, I stressed and complained when I don't have work and I stressed and complained when I have work... hahaha... I guess sometimes I can be quite whiny and all :P

After a whole day of walking around, I'm pretty tired already. Probably gonna go to bed early. I bought color contacts today, will try them when I have a party to go to!!! hehehe!!!

Bought 2 CDs today. Leehom and Tension. I'm happy :D Very happy :D))

Jackson: if you see this blog, I have been trying to call you for a few days now, keep getting no answers. Not sure if it's too late or what. I also found out that my network seems to be messing up a lot with the sms so I hope you get the sms I sent! Anyway will keep trying tomorrow or whatever, if you read this blog before I successfully contacted you, let me know! Write a comment or something ok! Thanks!

Cel: I love you darling, come back soon and so I can see you work your ass off and laugh! haha!!!

Stella: You look GREAT in pink! Wear it more! Your pashminas are also on their way :)

Another freezing day...

A very cold day today... It's been cold for the past few days in fact, The misty, chilly kinda weather that no matter how many layers of clothing you put on yourself it's useless. Not that I'm complaining too much, I love the cold and am enjoying it... while not feeling my toes...

Only a few months into this blog and I'm already writing this on a weekly/biweekly basis. I really seriously think I need to stop thinking about writing stuff and actually do some writing... then again, how many times have I said that already? hahahahaha

I have been working very hard on my little business. So hard that sometimes I don't want to stop, not because I have a dying urge to do everything I can/can't, but because if I stop and look back and forward and get perspective, I am afraid that I will be defeated by the enormous amount of work that needs to be done that I'll lose the drive and the courage to keep moving forward. My work day isn't really that tough, in fact there are a lot of time where I can just bluff around even while I'm working. So I really don't know what I'm complaining about. I think it has more to do with the constant stress of wanting to achieve great performance that is really draining me. After all, my entire survival seems to depend on it. I'm really working very hard to get out of this initial stage and start getting some return... so at least there is one aspect of my life that don't look so sad...

Skype...

Just so if any of you are interested in talking IDD or local calls for free with clearer than calling card quality... here's the software to download...

I have to take down my username coz too many strangers keep adding me... email me if you want to add me!!! (Only people I know Pls!!!)

First Day of Chinese New Year

First of all, happy Chinese New Year to everyone who's... well... Chinese? hahahaha

It was a working day for me and I did get many things done so I'm happy about that. Being home alone and all, I'm actually not missing too much either. I had dinner with my uncle Stephen and his family and their friends. It was a great night. Just good friends gathered around having nice food (well we did gathered as well just two nights before for the end of year dinner!). I also collect a few red pockets "lai si" as well!!! Which was super good heheheheh!!!

The highlight of the night though has to be the skype telephone call I have with Stella and Sam. It was quite exciting for me (I also made some sales for my pashmina!!! heheheh :P)!!! I've always used the program to just talk to my relatives but never friends. Now I hope more people will install the program so we can have mad conference calls!

I especially missed my sister the most. She has a post dedicated to me right after I left Sydney and I was really sad when I read it coz I really missed the time we have together in our little apartment just being stupid and annoyed the shit out of each other. I know i'll probably be seeing her in about a month's time for a while but still, it's not the same. I'm gonna work hard so that I can move out to be on my own and we can share an apartment here as well!!!

Met up with Carol last night, she was on her way to another party. She left for Sydney today and will be spending 4 days in my place with my sister. It's good to catch up with old friends. Sometimes you just donno what you miss when you see each other all the time or when the other's always availble. I think to actually appreciate a person even when they are there is when we all grow mature.

Ok enough senimental talk. It's the first day of Chinese New Year. I hope every one is going to have a super good time this year. No more bad things will happen and we all live happily and peacifully!!! It's about time when people get a break.

It's just about god damn time!!!

Back to reality...

My second attempt to write... I, like an idiot that I am, closed the window without saving anything...

So I was saying, time truly flies when one is having a great time and being lazy. There's so much that happened during my trip that I want to share yet here I am, few days since I came back before I go about writing anything down.

First of all, Hen's night was a big success. We got the then bride-to-be so trashed we almost got into trouble. Too much San Gria and Champagne plus a stripper proved to be too much for her to handle. We tried tapas, strippers, gate crashing, loft and cargo and the mix proves to be the best remedy to end one's single life. Although it made the pre-wedding meeting the next day unbearable, there was no regret!

Wedding day!!! An emotional and adrenaline charged occasion that was maxed up by nervousness, excitement, lack of sleep, long travel, extreme weathers, running make ups, sore feet, lots of walking under scorching sun, non stop schedule, lots of balloons and not enough alcohol and food. We all went home like zombies having accomplished one monstrously happy task. Congratulations to Bobby and Sandra on embarking a life together and congratulations to all the sisters and brothers who gave their sweat and blood to make sure it ran as smoothly as possible. Without whom this would have been quite a disaster!

I spent the next day (a perfect, sunny Australia Day) chilling and relaxing and just being a total bum. I went to the beach in the morning and had fish and chips (gosh I was longing for that!) and the the rest of the day eating nachos that was specially created by Stella (simply amazing!) and the 4 of us just watched Sex and the City on DVD. It couldn't have been a more perfect day!

The next few days were simply more parties and less and less sleep. Friday night was dinner in San Souci (a place call Big John that is awesome and cheap) with the whole gang from the wedding. We then went to K and I didn't get to bed until 6:30am the next day.

Saturday night was dinner at Totoya and followed by, well what else could it have been but K? The evening would just not be complete without it! I have to mention that I was super duperly touched when Ricky called me on Friday to ask if I wanna get together and have dinner that night. I almost wanted to cancel on the gang when he called! We had such a blast at K then we finished the night with talking till 9am in the morning. I'm just happy and grateful that after all that has happened and being that situation, I discovered that I have made some true great friends.

So after just about 4 hours of sleep me and sis embarked on our journey to Newcastle to see Angela. She was working that day so we had to go to SD to see her. Our of being polite we dropped by to say hi to Betty. May I just say that that woman is dillusional and mental as hell. She's downright ridiculous and rude and fake that you wonder why she wouldn think others won't know that about her. But it was great seeing Stephen again. He's a true good bloke. We then went to Angela's house to see her family while she was at work. This great family is awesome and delightful to be with. What with all the food and drink and talk, one can just fall right in love with them. Yes, you can feel the love just being in the house!

By Monday afternoon I knew I had to postpone my trip and it's as if god himself was helping me, I had totally no problem pushing my departure a day late! Cleaned the house and cooked for sis, Stella, Jackson and Karen on my last night in Sydney. Then Ricky and Sam dropped by and we all just watched some great silly movies.

During the evening there were some heated conversation exchanged between sis and that bastardly scumbag asshole who refuses to pay and who I think even hell itself would not want such a low-life slimeball of a fucker who likes fucking himself and eating his own cum to boost his hyper inflated moudy brainless ego.

But the night was otherwise a great one and I had a great great time with freinds and Harold and Kumar and then talked to Karen till 5 in the morning. It was a great way to end my Sydney trip.

it was a sad day the day I left. I really really didn't want to leave but had to. I think the city misses me and want me to stay too. My flight was delayed for 2 hours. The first hour due to mechanical problem and the second due to weather condition. There was thunder and lightning and mad rain. The smouldering shower in Hong Kong wasn't the best welcome back feeling and somehow I think I wished that it wasn't good so it gave me more reason to work hard to go back to Sydney...

To recap:
Number of people I sent home who were trashed/drunk/passed out/unconcious/puking: 5
Number of night I was trashed/drunk/passed out/unconcious/puking: 0 (tragic)
Number of times I've been to the beach: 0 (tragic)
Number of times I had fish and chips: 1 (tragic)
Number of times I had pie and dogs at Harry's: 3 (hmmm yumm....)
Number of months before I get to be in Sydney again: 4 (miserable)

Winne is here with her husband. They've spent last night here and will spend tonight here as well. We didn't do much other than catching up and chilling at home. Her mom passed away the week I was in Sydney. She was in London and didn't get the news until she returned 2 days later. It's amazing how so much can be discovered and exposed when one's gone, but I suppose that's for another post another time.

In the end, I learned not to whine (too much anyway) what with all the great friends I discovered I have I think I'll be good fo the next few months!
