WhAt Can I Be If I'm NoT An UnDerWriTeR?

Gee, I'm bored with my current job. All the never ending stress and work task.....aarrrgggggg.......

Wondering what can I be if I leave this job and venture into some other industries? What type of job suits me better? A shopping planner? A housewife? A babysitter? A baker? A fashion designer? A dancer? A choreograher? A wedding planner? Or an ' overwriter' (what does this mean? -_-'''''')? There's so many ''???????'' on my head....

Perhaps you guys should give me some idea on this....

TiMe Is NeVeR EnOugH....

I'm finally back after a long silence....thanks to the hectic life, having to deal with work and wedding preparation. It's not an easy task prepare for a wedding of your dream, and I never understand why people take ages to plan for their wedding. But now I fully understand the stress and phobia of it....

Shall get back to my usual lifestyle soon--time to relax, time to suft internet, time to blog!!!!!

InTeRNeT's BaCk!!!

I'm finally able to login to internet from home after living in 'dark' for the past few weeks.....Horray!!!!!!....There's so many things I would like to post in my blog, which I've been praying hard to have my internet connection back to normal!!!!

Aft3r A LoNg SilenCe

Hi readers, it has been awhile since I last posted my blog. Life have been sooooo busy lately with never ending workload, pre-marriage courses to attend, accompany bf to all the business meetings(almost everynight!!! ), and worstly, the internet at home was down for the past few weeks....

So where am i know?Sitting at Starbucks Bangsar and sipping Caramel Frapuchino while updating my blog. Yawn...it's only 11.09pm and I feel sooooo tired.....Jokingly asking bf whether we're going into 'old man's life' whereby we're stuck at Starbucks on a Friday night, when we're suppose to be out there clubbing and having fun!!!

Yawn....gee....i think i really need my sleep...bf, can we go home now??

DuRiAn Nit3...

Bf has been asking me to go for the popular 'durian buffet' for the past few weeks, but I didnt bother to entertain his request until tonite.....

Stopped by at a durian stall on our wayhome from work. He was soooooooo excited and looking forward to it.....See the photos below. His facial expression tells it all..

Wah...see your tummy.....

The durian feast........

Fr3d's UnForGeTaBle BirThDaY

This year we had a very simple birthday celebration for bf's birthday, partly because we had been eating too much good food lately and thinking to lose weight, and partly because we don't want to spend $$$ unneccessary as we're saving for honeymoon!!!!!!!!

Bf suggested to have Korean food since we havent had it for a long time. Yeah, I know I should be the one who plan for such a big celebration, but bf instructed me not to plan anything for him this year, coz we just want a simple celebration and just with the 2 of us only....

Went to Jalan Ampang for Korean Food @ Restaurant Gung. bf had the honour to choose this among the rest of the restaurants around...

Fred posing in front of the camera with a table full of good food....A variety of kim chi's'.....

My favourite Kim-Chi soup........
I-ta-ta-ki-mas!!!!! Time to conquer the food!!!!

A 'must order' dish for us everytime we go for Korean food- Bibimbab. But this round we ordered something different--> House specialty Octopus Bibimbab...Not bad though!~!~

Felt something was missing!!Yes, it was the birthday cake. Didn't get him a birthday cake this time, coz Adrian bought him a cake during Fred's pre-birthday celebration dinner last nite...

Discovered something when we wanted to leave....Car tire punctured!!!!!! Poor birthday boy gotta change tire....

He seem to enjoy doing this 'guy's job'!!!!wuahahahah....

We headed home straight away before another tired got puntured again... -_-''''''

HaPPy BirThDay To You....

Happy Birthday To my beloved Frederick...Muaks!~!~!~

SkiNCar3 Day!!!!

I've been a good gal lately and bf was impress!!!!!Hehehehe...No shopping for me nowadays, surprise????

Went for facial today, and ended up with a handful of Kanebo skincare products... Gee...wallet bleeding again......

But at least I didnt buy any unneccessary stuff (good excuse for my shopaholic behaviour!!)

No MoRe ShooTiNg plzzzzzz....

Saturday, Saturday, Saturday, Here i come.......

Went for our 2nd wedding photo shooting yesterday, and this time we were honoured to be the models as doing a favour for Ivy & Louis's upcoming wedding planner cafe. Didn't enjoy the shooting as much as the 1 we had with Anson, instead this round was soooooooooooo damb tired!!!

Started the day at 8am when we gotta reach Ivy's house for make-up preparation--> then drove to Ulu Yam for shooting--> after that, had a late lunch at 3pm before heading back to Ivy's house for a short nap--> started our 'assignment' again at 7pm, got ready and rushed to Putrajaya for night shot. The time we reached Putrajaya was already 10pm, wonder if the photos gonna turn out to be nice...-->11pm, suddenly rain heavily, so ended up for supper instead....

Gee, by the time we reached home, we were totally flat out....

PeN@ng IpOh Trip PaRt II....

Rise and shine!! Woke up at 8am to accompany dad for a nice cup of coffee at the hotel( well, the coffee was sucks though, but having dad around makes everything seem just so perfect....yeah, iI know I miss dad a lot!!) The sun was shining brightly and the weather was terrific! It seem like I have not had such a good night rest forrrrrr...(as long as I could recall!)

Waited for elder sis to wake up. Yeah, usually she's the last 1 to wake up, coz she usually go hunting at night!!! Wuahahahhahaa......Sis, hint hint, next time better dont be piggy lah, wake up earlier and shake your butt~!!!~Finally, woke up at 10am after got nagging from dad...

Started off our 1/2 day tour to Ipoh...Ipoh, Ipoh, here I come!!!!!

The journey from Penang to Ipoh seem soooooooo long and I was getting bored and impatience sitting in the car. Poor bf gotta be the driver and yet no complaints from him!!

We stopped by at one of the food arcade and bought some junk food-->mangosteen!!!

Daddy: Uuuiii....boy. Come, i teach you how to choose sweet & juicy mangosteen. Stop smiling at the camera lah..come!!!

Daddy: Nah...see! This is what you call rejected mangosteen. Must remember ya, next time you'll know how to choose nice 1, same like how you choose your wife lah, must be 'sweet & juicy'!!

Fred: Yes uncle! But I think i chose the 'rotten' wife lah, she's very fierce oh, how ah?I scared lah....

Daddy: -_-'''''''''' (speechless!!)

Trying on the mangosteen....

Fred: Daddy, why the mangosteen not sweet and juicy gey?

Daddy: Coz I purposely choose the 'rotten' 1, just like your wife mah....

Fred: -_-'''''' (What a lesson from Daddy!!)

Finally, we reached Ipoh and started our food hunt mission.

First destination--> The famous Lou(Old) Wong beansprout chicken (nga choi gai)

See the sign?

Beansprout, chicken, kuey teow and meatball...yummy!!!!

After a sumptious lunch, we headed for our next destination for dessert


Drive-thru Soya milk + soya beancurd store.....You can only get this in Ipoh with a drive thru concept, feel as if I'm having my McD drivethru...hehehehe......And you need to know how to order your food:-

White+white= soya beancurd + soya milk
black+ white= soya milk + cincau
* photo taken by bf, that's why the it turned out to be such a low quality photo...hehehe...

After that, headed to titbits shops to buy ration--> famous local made biscuits!!!!

Satisfied with a handful of purchase, we continued our food hunt journey again--> third meal within 3 hours!!!! Drove to Ipoh Garden, found out there was a new foodcourt which we have yet to try. Should be good as the foodcourt was packed with food finders even at 3.30pm....Guess that was the time people usually go for afternoon tea (Ha ngmm cha- in cantonese)...

fruit rojak and Ipoh chee cheong fan...

Roast pork, special request by sister.....see the ring? That's sister, cant wait to try the food...

Roti kahwin(or so called roti bakar with Kaya+butter)

Mission accomplished!!! Started our journey back to Penang again......

Reached Penang just in time to have our last meal for the day-dinner, before we headed back to KL again......Dad recommend this Thai/fushion cousine nearby our hotel which serve very good Tom Yam Goong!!!!!Must try.....

Time flies.....How I wish tomorrow is still weekend!~!~!~! Time to drive back to KL again~~~~

Penang Trip- Day 1

It has been a long time since we had our family vacation, there's always either 1 of us can't make it. Still remember the last family vacation we had was way back in year 2004 when my whole family went to Melbourne to attend my convocation. Yeah..i know it's been quite a while...That's life after everyone starts working....

We finally had a chance to have our short family outing after sooooo many years and thanks to eldest sister for making this trip a reality(coz sister gotta go to Penang for business trip, so she suggested we all go there and teman her!!! ). Weekend trip to Penang-Ipoh for good food hunt. I know it's like a weekly routine for lots of family to travel together, but for us to get together and have such an outing is sooooooooooooooooooo hard!! So even a nearby short trip is as good as an oversea vacation. Still remember my 1st trip oversea to USA was when I was only 3 months old?!?! Dad, I promise you that I'll bring you for holiday oversea soon yeah....

Day 1- Lunch

We started our journey from KL at 7am and reached Penang almost lunch time. Dad was already excited waiting for our arrival at the hotel. Without waiting much longer, started our Good Food Hunt 1st destiny @ Jln Maccalistor.....

The famous Penang Char Kuay Teow..

Wantan Mee with Pork lard.....

Assam Fish...

Last dish for this session--> Fried fish Noodle soup....

Afternoon Tea

After lunch, we drove around the city and visited bought some Penang famous cookies(tau sah peah which is not to my liking....). Then sister suggested to go for afternoon tea at E&O Hotel since we have not been there before....

Eastern & Oriental Hotel, Penang.....

Welcome to Cafe 1881......

Cafe 1881, the distint Colonial set-up....

exclusive China ware, made me feel as if I'm a Queen in England.........

The long awaiting Afternoon tea set, from scones, sandwishes, pastries to sumptious cakes...



A closer look at the unique cakes that includes cheesecame, meringue, fruit tarts and chocolate cake, strawberry chocolate dip....sinful treat!!!

Satisfied with a full tummy......


Sis took this photo and insisted me to upload to my blog--> the Colonial style costume, bicycle and revolving door......

After that, we drove around the city and discovered this......squatting while eating at the roadside...Think you can only get this kind of tradition in Penang....

While passing through the rows of shops in front of Traders Hotel, dad discovered something special-->FOOD again!! This round is at the small lane between the row of shoplots.... boiled peanut dessert. I've never tried something as good as this!!!!Must try..and this stall is famous among the local too!!! Guess we're qualify to be the King & Queen of Food Hunt!!!

Gee...I was soooo full that I could hardly move by then......

Work Work Work.......

It's 8.20pm and I'm still in the office......I think I've changed from a shoppaholic to a workaholic!! Why is it sooooo much work to do?It's killing me softly -_-'''''''

The MeaNiNg Of MaRRiaGe.....

Was chatting with Anson while choosing our pre-wedding photos. Anson shared a meaningful website that really touches my heart regarding a newly-wed couple- Thuy & Javier...

Many times we may have neglected the real meaning of a wedding ceremony. And at times we tense to focus on wedding day itself rather than life after marriage... But the love of this couple really show us what is Love and Marriage..Salute to Thuy and Javier!!!!

Dear Frederick, thank you for loving me more and more each day, and thank you for loving who I am. Thank you for always being by my side and never let me fall, thank you for lifting me up when I'm down and thank you for having such a blessed husband. I promise to love you now...and forever. This is our promise til we part....

P/S: Thanks Anson for sharing such a meaningful website....

PhoTo ChooSiNg DaY

Today I've got excuse to get out of office earlier than usual(can't even recall when was the last time I left office this early, everyday work like no day and no nite..sigh...), but phone rang nonestop, there were numerous missed calls from office which I didnt even bother to answer...Coz it's my wedding photo choosing day!!!

Bf and I totally love the photos...

Thanx a zillion to:-

~Anson(chief photographer) for the terrific snapshots and supervision, You're simply the best!!!
~ Helen(make-up artist) for the artistic make-up...my bf cant stop praising your 'piece of work' on us...
~ Ah How(photograher assistant) for the fun and laughter you've brought to us...
~ Meiz(sales personnel) for the coordination and most importantly, recommended Anson as our photograher!!! We have fallen in love with him....ooppssss, Anson, make sure your gf doesn't read this part yeah...

*Crew of Love Vision Bridal Shop, Jalan Loke Yew Branch

We thought we could have the photo choosing process done within an hour and thought that it was quite silly of people using hours when selecting their photos. True enough that we spent not an hour, not 2 hrs, not 3 hrs...but almost 4 hours from choosing photos, adding photos(OoohhhHhhhhh..Anson and Meiz, we 'died' in your hand again this round), selecting frames, album cover etc.......What an experience!!

But we find this a truly interesting and enjoyable moments for pre-wedding preparation.....Cant wait to have our 1st year wedding anniversary photo taking again...(yeah, we've already planned to have 'marriage' photos on every wedding anniversary...)

At LaSt!!!

Hooorrraaaay....Our dream have come through. We're gonna have our garden wedding instead of church wedding, all thanks to my family members who have been supportive and my future in-laws who are very understanding!!! A big thanks to dad, dad-in-law and mom-in-law for fulfulling our wish. Now I can't wait til my actual day......Gee, it's less than 4 months, time flies.....Excited yet worry...... -_-'''''

ShoRt Br3aK

Dear readers, I'll be away for the weekend--Home sweet home to my beloved hometown to celebrate pre Father's Days. This year, got dad a Zara tie as Father's Day gift, so he can wear it on our wedding. Isn't it sweet? Cant wait to see dad...yeah...im going home....

Will return on 14th, till then, enjoy your weekend@!!~!~!`

LoNgiNg 4 F00d...

It's Good FooD TiMe!!!

We were exhausted and hungry after the photo session. Now I can fully understand why models are always so skinny, coz they hardly have time for food during photo shooting...

Our food hunt destination for this round was at buffet steamboat at Tasty Pot at Sunway.

Tasty Pot buffet steamboat...Our 1st time there...

BF enjoying his chicken wings as starter.....

Bf busy with his food that he didnt even bother to look at the camera -_-''''''

Posing for another shot please.....

Half way through eating, bf MIA..Wonder where was he..oOOoooohHHhhhhh...can you see that he's queuing up for his favourite--ice-cream!!!

Managed to grap his ice-cream and feeling satisfied....

Pre-WeDDing PhoTo SeSSioN PaRt II

Our 2nd session of pre-wedding photo shooting has just begun...

Reached the bridal shop at 11am sharp, but got to know that our make-up artist, Helen, was tied up with department meeting. No worries, since we have got lots of time for the day....Be patience, everything will be just fine...Finally Helen arrived after 30 minutes and started our 'big project' without further delay. Discussed with Helen what type of hairstyle we prefered, any particular colors to use, etc...Helen just knew what we wanted and I trusted her fully.....

After the first 2 hours of make-up, got ready and started off our outdoor shooting @ The Magnificant Fish&Chip at Changkat Alor. Thanks Chia Wei for organising the venue, and thanks Paul for sparing your restaurant for us to complete our shooting.....It was sooooooo much fun! And the venue was just perfect for our shooting effect.....Not forgeting Anson, our professional photographer, who managed to turn a plain scene into something extraordinary...

Then, we headed back to the bridal studio for our indoor shooting. We thought indoor shooting was so much easier and more relax, but we were all wrong. It was such a hectic day, and was tiring than our outdoor shooting in Melacca, but still, fun and exciting!!!!

We managed to finish our shooting at about 7pm, that was quite a long day though....We were down with an empty stomach by then.....

You must have guess where was our next destination then!!Yes, it's food time...

I WaNt My GaRD3n WeDDiNg!!!!!!!!

I'm sure everyone has their fairytale wedding they have been longing for. Same goes to me.....All I want is just a nice and romantic garden wedding with all the guest enjoying the sunny breeze weather and sipping english tea and eating scones..... But my dream wedding seem somewhat like just a dream for me rather than a reality.....

Been wanting a garden wedding more than anything else.... I don't want a church wedding!!! Can anyone hear me?!?!?!?!?! I hate this..and I totally don't enjoy the thought of having a church wedding at all....Isn't it a wedding is all about the bride and groom?? Why do I need to think of others, especially their feelings..... It should be a 'Me! Me! Me' day, because this is a once in a lifetime thing only. Why do I need to listen to what others want me to do and yet I don't enjoy it at all??? Come to think about it, if the bride & groom don't enjoy it, then what is the purpose of having a church wedding!!!

I just hate the whole church wedding thingy...
AARRRgggggggggggggGGGGGGGGGGGGGggggggggggggHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh................................... Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

~:~ RoM GoWn~:~

Oohhh..It was Saturday, but it seem more like a Sunday to me because I did not have to work yesterday!!!!

Couldn't sleep in although it was a weekend. Partly because my photo shooting mood wasn't over yet, and partly because I would be taking my custom-made wedding registration gown today!!!! Yeah.....

After having dim sum with bf at Damansara Uptown, headed to get my gown immediately. Wonder whether my gown would turn up nicely....And it really didn't dissapoint me!! Without much delay, tried the gown and it suit perfectly on me. Bf gave a thumb up too!!!Horray!~!!~!~!

Can't wait to wear it on my Registration Day on 02.09.09......

BeeR F3v3r....

Today was our monthliversary. Initially bf suggested to go Sheraton Hotel for buffet(his favourite buffet spot).....But we were toooo hungry after the photo shooting that we went for lunch in Melacca at about 6pm. Yeah, yeah.... i know it should call tea break rather than lunch, but we didnt have our lunch......

Since we were still full from the sumptious meal we had in Melacca, bf decided to have a drink instead of buffet since we both were a bit tired and full after coming back from Melacca....

Bf's favourite hang-out place- Brussels Beer Cafe @ Jaya 1

Ice chilled Hoegaarden beer, feel soooooooooooooo good!!!!

1 pint vs 1/2 pint.... Now you see it, now you don't!!!

Yeah..my beer is here.....Let's try!!!!!Cheers!~!~!~!

Adrian with his 1/2 pint....

German Roast pork goes well with beer...Yummy~!~!~!

Bf: I feel sooo hungry lah..Can I try some? lol....
