happy 49th merdeka!!!

it's merdeka day today!!!

HAPPY MERDEKA!!!

imagine this...49 years ago on this very date, malaya was given it's independence after years and years of colonilization (shit....this is how u spell it rite??? rite???)

citizens of malaya can finally breathe a sigh of relief bcos they r no longer under the power of the british. imagine the joy of the ppl at that time (which would most probably be our grandparents time....so watcha waitin for??? go on now...run off to ur grandparents and ask them abt that very very meaningful day)

anyways, we shud be thankful as we are living in a multi-racial country where we do not colour discriminate...where we celebrate each and everyone's festivals..and the food is delicious....!!!

only here in malaysia is the place where u can find chinese, indian, malay, western restaurants all in the same street..and where the food actually taste good...

omg....wat have i bcome??? i'm so bloody patriotic today....

oh well...not everyday this happens...only once a year....

shh...dont tell anyone, kay??
(yea rite...like tat's gonna happen...it's the frickin' internet....no secrets are safe in here)

but whatever....

Happy merdeka, Malaysia!!!

FINALLY!!!

oh yea...

Merdeka comin soon....

last thurs..2 speakers were invited to give a talk bout their careers in their respective fields...1st speaker of the day was as u can c fr the pic....xandria ooi

she was supposed to talk abt her life being a vj (hitz.tv) but she went rambling on abt how we shud enjoy our coll and uni yrs bcos those were the best days of HER life. yea...we noe tat...we didnt come for the damn talk to hear u say that..heck, i skipped lunch to go for the frickin' talk..and she kept on yakkin' n yakkin'...she took precious time away fr the other speaker..

which is....nikki cheong....(is tat how u spell his name??i forgot)

now he his talk was the most interesting and sadly kinda short cos he had to rush through bcos xandria took too long yakkin abt her happy times in sunway coll...and the stoopid rude lecturer who kept rushing nikki cos he had a class..patience la...its not like everyday we get to have this speaker gif a talk...ish...

anyhoo...being a journalist is pretty exciting..nikki cheong actually gets loads of free gifts and he gets to sleep late and wake up late...how fun...!!he also got to interview bryan singer (director of superman returns and x-men1 and 2)...now tats the kinda job i wud like to have...

it's been a long and winding journey
and i've finally figured out
pickin' up the pieces
...........................................

it's a lyric to a song...i think...haha...i have no idea how but it juz came to my mind so i thot y not put it in...it kinda fits tis blog post also bcos i have not been blogging for quite some time. but before any1 starts jumpin on my back bout it, i have valid reasons for not blogging.

as u all noe, i'm not using streamyx but the ol'skool dial-up. so money ran out...can't go online for about a week. kinda torturing bcos with no internet connection i juz cant survive. the internet is my connection to the world outside my bubble. and let me tell u tis...my bubble ain't tat big...har har har.....

saturday...i predict is gonna b one helluva emotional day.

y?? cos my fren, ivie, is gonna fly on her private plane to the land of the free...land of the brave...the united states of A!!!

will hopefully get to update pics of tat day....

till then, i'll enjoy my last time wif ivie tmrw doing some serious retail therapy....
