I'm back to Indonesia~

I know this post is so...outdated. Yeah, I was back to Jakarta since 27th of November 2009..that date just ended my A level journey in Malaysia. Sarah, Jason, and Tuck were so nice to send me in Airport on that day..Sarah and Tuck also gave me extra gifts beside their presence.

Sarah gave me a christmas bear (I assume it's christmas bear because of the scarf it's wearing..lol) and Tuck gave me a card and a well wrapped box. Afterwards, I knew that the box was containing a monkey phone holder..Monkey again..I'm officially a mommy monkey now, huh..haha

I'm really grateful that three of you spent time and money(of course..for transport) to send me off..it's the greatest gift that you can give to a foreigner. Not to forget some friends that couldn't be there even if they wanted to because of some reasons..your messages to my phone are enough to show your wills.. ^^

Actually, my departure from LCCT was quite hectic..literally. I brought 2 big luggages and 1 duffel bag. Each of the big luggage weighed around 30 kg and I couldn't check them in by using the normal check in counter..so I gotta move them to R69 to check them in..it's like a service counter..hehe

I went in to the international departure lounge around 30 minutes before the departure time. The queue was like..long like hell. It's 10 minutes before departure time when I was still queueing for that imigration thingy..I want to curse that malay worker..He's like the slowest of all workers there..I gotta ask for people's mercy to actually cut 3 people in front of me..if not, surely I miss my flight..and that guy was being so annoying and useless!! He worked so slow like a babi and said that I have no right to ask him to work faster..yeah yeah..it's malaysia and it's your country..ok..whatever you said. But 1 thing I can tell you is, Indonesian malays are far more helpful and polite than Malaysian malays in the airport..not talking about my own friends..they're exceptional..

If getting called as one of the 4 last passengers to board to AK384 is not the worst thing of all, forgetting my passport bag in the X-ray is like..a nightmare came true..I used all my sprinting skill and last breath to run up and down twice..just to take that passport bag again..

I finally arrived in the plane SAFELY (yeah, because I ran on the runway side..too scared to miss the flight) around 1.40 pm..just the time..guess what..I still need to wait until 2.15 for the plane to actually take off..what the hell.. ><" I just don't understand Malaysia... =.=

In the plane, I accidentally slept a few times before the plane took off..maybe because of oxygen shortage..of course laaaaa...not having any exercise for months and suddenly I had to run with a laptop on my backpack and 1.5 kg of chicken meat slice in my hand..haven't add the other stuffs also..I'm like half dead..breathe like never going to meet the air again..took me 30 minutes to actually get back to normal breathing mode..

Never know that I can actually run that fast and get up and down of the stairs like a lightning..haha..fear drives hidden abilities!!

Reaching Soekarno Hatta International Airport, my hectic flight seems hasn't over yet...I lost that duffel bag...and gotta wait for 1 hour just to see the "last baggage"sign passed me twice. That was the time when I wondered why the baggage belt ran so slowly...

Why that duffel bag is so important? Not because of the make..but because of the things inside..Actually inside was just dirty clothes AND..my soft toys..if it's only the teddy inside..I wouldn't care so much about it, and will straight away go to the lost and found counter..won't even bother to check the baggage belt countless times..

But barley(the dog from my early b'day present) and also a turtle bolster from joyce were also inside..

Luckily the next day, Air asia called home and said that the bag was found..IN LCCT..they asked my dad why I left it there..wtf..I've paid for the 33kg excess weight and that duffel bag is already in the computer system that it was checked in..and they asked the most stupid question ever..Surely that guy got a super mad lecture from my dad..wew..

The next next day...means on 29th of November..I got "kerok" and massage..."kerok"or sometimes people call it as "kerik" is a traditional way of curing people..mostly with flu or fever..that is caused by the presence of "wind" in the body..if there's wind, then your body will be red/brown/purple or even black..when they do it...and the pain is so..wow..haha..if there's not..you won't have any mark and any pain..fair enough huh..

They do it like this: they apply some kind of oil on your body and use a coin to scratch your body..of course have to use the coin on the smaller side la..the perimeter..not the big area..if use the big area, how to have the pain..haha..

Even my butt was purple/brown colour..wew..the massager said that maybe I save the wind like a piggybank in Malaysia for a year...haha..no wonder my body felt so painful for a few days..maybe also because I was over tired..

2 hours of massage and I felt better..haha..

These days, I spent my time like a couch potato...watch tv channels, eat, sleep, read comic books..rarely go online because the line just sucks..if loy net sucks, then this one is XXXXXXsucks..haiz..

My birthday also like nothing..because Laura (my sister) got exam the next day..so..even the cake has to wait until weekend...zzzzzz...damn that school..what a schedule..AAAARRRGHHH..

Luckily the cards were not late..just that Lania's card was really funny..she wished me for 16th b'day...maybe she fell asleep while writing..hahahahaha...

Oh yeah, I got toothache again just now and this time, the attack was so painful...I got appoinment with dentist ady tomorrow..so sorry to Vera and Meilia that I cancelled our sushi and sour sally trip tomorrow...><"

Sorry that the post is really long..because I got lots to update and so little time to online..gotta go sleep now...night everyone, night Perak.

[the song in my blog is omitted to suit my SLOW internet connection, it's really funny when the blogger's owner can't go in to her own website due to heavy widgets... =.=]

Gonna, gonna, have FUN!

19:44

Waiting for time to pass...Going to play pool with Tuck at 8 pm..haha..maybe my last pool play in Malaysia..oiii..you feel delighted or not, duck?? my last pool play here wei..wahaha..

Going to bring him some of the thousand layer cake and mangoes..first reason: let him try some of the things my dad brought me..second reason: everyone is going to leave to holiday and i'll be grateful if there's an extra mouth to finish the stuffs..haha..empek empek was finished by Joyce and me just now..wahaha..

Tomorrow I'm going to genting~~~hohoho..finished packing today..actually I packed most of the stuffs here also. So, when I come back to Subang on 26th, I'll have some time to rest..rather than packing..hoho

Sarah's dad will pick me, Ilyas, and Yi Lyn up from my unit..hopefully yi lyn won't be late..wahaha..it's really not funny if we miss the bus..haha..

Gone to pool..ciao~~~

Wooden Postcards

I bought these two wooden postcards long time back in popular by using the voucher I got from the Euclid contest prize..only got RM30 and I gave RM10 to Joyce..so, I used the other 20 to buy these stuffs..considered free right..haha..

Long, long time I wanted to decor these postcards, but I just didn't have the right time..haha..now, I'm going to leave soon, so I gotta write the postcards no matter what..

Front part of postcards.

Left is Joyce's, right is Subha's.

They chose the postcards on their own..that time both of them were in Popular with me also..haha..I just coloured them with colour pencil..didn't colour fully though, because I think it would be miserable if I make them full of colour..haha..It turned out to be a good option^^

The back part of the postcards.

Top is Joyce's, bottom is Subha's.

I printed out some pictures to enhance the experience of the receiver..haha..I glued those with a RM2 super glue that was..wow..super strong..luckily I'm careful enough so that I didn't glue my own fingers..quite scared that these careless stuffs will happen..it dried off a few seconds after I sticked the 2 surfaces..and it's so strong..the best RM2 invesment..haha..

I chose pictures with memories behind it..like Joyce's, I chose the V-soy event and Ipoh trip..I really think that both of them are a good memory to remember..even though 1 of them is a bit embarassing..the V-soy drunk event happened in 7/11 wei...zhadou..

Subha's one was the Carefour grocery trip and Ipoh trip..that time was merdeka day I think..and we went to Carefour to buy some things..ended up to play there for a long time..the Ipoh trip, need not to be explained anymore..it was indeed, a great and MEMORABLE trip..lol..

Hope that both of you enjoyed the wooden postcards that I've decored and wrote...can hang them on your new room later on..I'll be delighted if you remember to do so..bring 'me' along whereever you go..haha..

Early birthday surprise~

Me and my dad went to Pavilion on his second day in Malaysia. Actually thinking to go to KLCC to buy my mom's Godiva first, but ended up visiting Pavilion first. Haha..

It's a nice mall indeed..with all the christmas feel around. Big christmas trees, santa's deers, and also fake snow.

In the centre court in Pavilion

My dad..

Walked here and there..and finally it's lunch time..we had it in Tony Roma's. We ordered onion rings, full loaf for appetizer. Funny story arises from this later on. I'll tell you below. haha..

My dad and I ordered 2 pineapple sunrise, 10 oz New York Strip(medium rare) for him, and 10 oz Ribeye(medium well)..but at last I gave quarter of mine to him. It's just too filling wei ><"

With the onion loaf..

Super big steak =.=

We couldn't finish the onion loaf, so took away half of it..After eating, we walked around and went to toilet also..I forgot the onion loaf in the toilet..hehe..and I apologized to Joyce already for forgetting her onion rings there..Just think as, the lady cleaner would have her chance to taste Tony Roma's onions...hehe..Joyce, you can have it next time right..You got better chance..^^

Then, we went to KLCC..another funny story: we were looking for taxi in front of Pavilion to go KLCC, then walk walk walk..I fell down on the street..ON MY BUTT ><" zhadou..in front of so many people..

In KLCC, first, we asked if there's a cinema there..then we asked again if there's Godiva here..haha..since my mum is craving for it ><"

We took a look in the shop, then we walked to the cinema..bought 2 tickets of Christmas Carol..Then, walked around again to spend time..

Around 3.20 pm, we walked back to Godiva and bought 4 boxes of truffles for my mum and few truffles for my own pleasure..haha..

Godiva outlet in KLCC

Then, we went back to the TGV and watched Christmas Carol..HALF WAY, my dad asked me to come out for the reasons: it's too cold inside and the movie is lousy..hmm..ok la..acceptable. Since the reasons are quite true also..Another middle east girl beside me also keep yawning..haha..not to say my dad..he slept already inside..

He said that we're going to go to his hotel first, he bath..then go to my apartment, then I bath, after that only we go to dinner together..Until here, I still haven't noticed anything wrong ><

We took taxi back to Sheraton Subang, then while waiting for him to bath, I took out the chocolates to take the picture..want to show my mum...haha

The chocolates..

The way I arranged the chocolates is not bad, right..looks good..hmm..Of course la..the total of the chocolate cost is RM1000++...><" I love truffles with liquor the most..cognac, irish coffee..gosh..blown my mind away..

Then, we took taxi to my apartment..I tried to open the door..because it was double locked..then..really can't..so hard to open..I called Joyce to open the door..I heard sound of people wearing slippers running here and there..(still not suspecting anything)

Suddenly the door was opened by someone..when I walked in, the light was off..the brightness we can see was just from the small candles that were put in some places..Joyce was standing in front of the door with a birthday cake lighted up..Zi was recording the stuffs..and Subha..seems like she was the one opening the door..haha..

So touched really..until this part, ok!!! After that, they asked me to change to the chinese new year dress..FULL RED...grrrr...ok la..for your own fun la ><" pout pout..=.=

So sad that Sally couldn't make it here...a soft toy dog called Barley was the birthday present from Sally, Subha, and Zi..Joyce said that hers one is going to be brought to Indonesia..haha..wonder what is that..????

Took pictures with them~

After they forced me to change to the dress...pout pout ><"

Took picture with my dad.

SAME HEIGHT..haha..

The worst part was that...my whole family knew about this thing. My dad was messaged by Joyce before..and they collaborate to trick me..><" haiyo..so many trick in one day..haha

Joyce got my dad's phone number from my phone..curi my phone that time and transfer everything inside..walaw...><"

After all..it's a really nice of you guys..Memorable last days in 201A..haha..I ever said that having birthday in November is really pity, but now..seems like there's no difference..you just need to get a good friends and your birthdate is no longer important..Love you guys..

This is the realization of the "ACCOUNTING" meeting that they told me last time. Left me out alone..huh..haha..now I understand..

God is good..since high school, I've met good friends and 4 years straight I got birthday surprises every year..is it just me that's too blur to notice their conspiracy? damn..LOL..

I'm officially 18 years minus 10 days on the surprise..HAHA..growing old..=.=no no no..supposed to say, growing mature..haha..

Only left few more days in Malaysia..hope that I can have more good memories to remember..

Cambridge Outstanding Achievers Awards Malaysia

19th of November 2009, at last the certificate is given. My dad came all the way from Indonesia to accompany me take this award(Previously it was called as Brilliance award..and now they've changed the name). Top in Malaysia in Thinking Skills for AS level.

Many people were there. Proud parents, students, and lecturers as well. We waited quite a long time for the arrival of Dr Wee, deputy minister of education. The award giving session is even shorter than waiting for him. haha..

Here are some pictures from Laksamana Ballroom, Armada Hotel, Petaling Jaya:

Dr Wee sitting nicely when the CIE regional chief for Malaysia is giving his speech

Dr Wee's turn to give his speech

Actually, not only A levels awards were given, O levels also given in the same event. So, waited quite a long time..to take my award..haha..which was only a piece of paper. ><

My turn to get the award^^

Gosh..I'm only his shoulder height =.=..and I wonder why he's not smiling..><"

Me, Dr Wee, and my dad.

Beside Dr Wee, my dad looked small..haha..and me, looked like a mushroom between trees =.=

With other Taylorians that can make it to get the award on their own. Some others have gone to universities oversea.

I hope next year I can get my parents to come to Malaysia again..to take another award. Haha..hopefully can make it to top in the world or something..><

SS Food Fiesta

Big day for special meals I guess. Lunch and dinner, both also I ate a 'different' food than usual.

Lunch:

Supposed to eat fried laksa with Tuck..but SOMEHOW, the restaurant is closed :'(

So, we ended up eating bak kut teh nearby..It's in SS14, so just need to cross the bridge from Taylor's McD.

What I love the most of bak kut teh? Bouncy char kueh..haha..everything bouncy is NICE(in my dictionary)

Bak Kut Teh @ SS14

Full? Quite. But I gotta save some space for the best part yet to come. WILLIAM'S!!!!!!!

Came back home, then went to take a nap..zzzzzzz..around 7.30 pm, Tommy came to pick me up..Sarah was already in the car.

Arrived there around 8:30 pm after waiting 10 years for Ilyas..haha..once we reached there, dunno what to order, but actually in the car, everyone was so damn hungry ady..haha

Nothing to say la..so full..William's is the greatest mamak stall ever..especially the cheese naan..no other shop can beat that. Hands down~!

Good Luck Pencil

Taylor's marketing people really have gone to the extent to promote themselves..haha..Last time it was the biomedical school with the good luck card and now it's Taylor's placement centre with the good luck pencil =.=

The Vice Programme Director suddenly came in to C18-20 before our P5 physics paper. She brought in a lot of pencils..blue, black, red, and white..then, asked the invigilators to distribute them..I chose white colour~~

This side still looks like a normal pencil right..

Can you see the good luck pencil writing?

The pencil got 3 sides and the other side that I didn't capture contains telephone number and email of the placement centre...

Afterall, I didn't even use the pencil..I always trust on my rotring mechanical pencil..the type that I've used since high school..Broke once last year and I bought the new one, perfectly the same type like the broken one..haha

But seems like it brought quite a good luck..the paper was acceptable and straight forward..gotta thank CIE for being so generous during this year's physics papers...since AS and also A2..haha
