I promised myself that I should blog often so as to store all the memories before I forget them. Well, it seemed like I am backing off before doing it.

Boyfriend has gotten his license three weeks ago. And so, we rented a car last week for a spin.actually, there is a series of events that linked to this rental of car.

Here it goes:
We were searching on a web hoping to find a rental company that rents out manual car for P-plates. Apparently there are only a few number of companies who provides manual cars. Adding that boyfriend is P-plater, chances of renting a manual car is slim. But , we happened to contact a company that is willing to lend a manual car to us! So soon after, boyfriend was asked to transfer them $50 for a deposit. I initiated to
Do the transfer for him. Who knows.. I misread the message he forwarded to me and ended up transferring a full sum Instead of a deposit. I know I am careless but little did I know that I can be so so careless when it comes to money issues.:(
I managed to contact the company to explain the situation and one of the staff actually assured me that nothing will be wrong as long as we keep the receipt.

So on the day of the rental, boyfriend tried to contact them as we are not sure of the time of collection. And guess what? They did not answer any of our calls. This company has three handphone numbers but none of them answer them. We were panicked and I even thought that if we were cheated , I will be the one who is blamed. Adding to that, it will spoil all our three days of fun?! And thank god, I must be one of the lucky kid that god bless. The staff finally get back to us after 4hours.

So we went to collect our car. I am
So glad that we are not cheated! Wanted to rent a getz but gotten a lancer. Boyfriend was complaining the moment we know . Until.... He saw the lancer that we collect, he was thrilled. Silver mod lancer with turbo. WHO WILL ACTUALLY RENT OUT SUCH A NICE CAR? well, they did.

So here's our three day event:
Day1: Old airport road for dinner > kallang 112 > boyfriend sent me home while he meet his friends for supper

Day2: fetch me> MA > swim > farm > fetch my mom home(since it's near) > upper Thomson dimsum > salted caramel > Henderson wave > jalan kayu with boyfriend's mom and ah Yi

We were planning for a prawning trip instead of jalan kayu but thanks to the heavy rain.:/

Day3: brunch @lavender > shaw tower > suntec > plaza sing > return of car

Half of the time we were travelling to shopping malls to settle something. Well, a short trip but an unforgettable one since these three days marks boyfriend 1st driving experience.(;

I wasn't a fan of driving. I didnt dream of having my own car too. But 8months ago, I signed up for btt with boyfriend. It wasn't a last minute decision. I just thought it might be good for me to learn a skill. Whats more, I have boyfriend to learn with me!

I managed to pass btt by a bit after practising mcq questions with boyfriend for a night. The same for ftt. And right after we got our pdi , we went searching for a private instructor. Boyfriend actually know of a driving instructor recommended by his buddy. Just that, he didnt have his phone number. And after searching on his friend's Facebook on a particular chat , we finally found the number!:D

We proceed learning driving with him. Well, learning driving wasnt a easy task. I took manual and it took me quite sometime to learn how to juggle between the different gears, handling the clutch and knowing how the entire machine work. At first, I used to hate driving because I always stalk the engine up. But after much practices, I found that yes driving was quite interesting and challenging. And in fact I can't even imagine I can drive a car on a road!

But being a slow learner, I got scolded for reacting slow. I understand that reacting slow on road can really be a dangerous act.
For eg: during parking, i turn later than expected and in the end , i got to adjust many times just to fit the car into the slot.And a month ago, the instructor even claim that I might not be able to take tp. I was sad and even blame myself for being so stupid. Boyfriend was there to cheer me up , encouraging me not to give up . Thus, I decided to increase the frequency of my driving lesson, making an effort to recap what I have learnt every lesson by linking it up with examples. Up till now, I can't say that my driving is superb but I am more confident and careful when driving on the road!

Heh. TP in 3more days and I have one more lesson.I just hope that everything can go smoothly!

I remembered vividly the day where my mom called me after I woke up in the morning informing me that we might not be able to go overseas as daddy might not be free. My heart literaly sank. Why? Because, I am looking forward to this trip ever since I discussed it with mom. Also disappointed as both my parents assured me twice before telling me this bad news. Counting back , it have been like more than 8years since I went overseas with parents. And, I even admire my friends who can go overseas every year.

My parents always Complained to me that they are busy with their work and can't find time out. The point is that, work is never ending. And I felt that we should learn to enjoy life, find time to enjoy life because if we kept procastinating that we have no time to enjoy life, we won't or never gonna enjoy it. Then why earn money?

Right after I heard the news from them, I didn't bother to ask them when are they free or so ever. Up till one day where we met our relative over at the temple, I manage to talk about life with some of my aunt. And since this is bothering me, I told them about the situation. They tried cheering me up . And I decided never to ask my parents about it unless they mention it. Who knows about a week ago , I received a call from aunt saying that they are planning an overseas trip asking me to come along with them. It Was really really unexpected because I wasnt really that close to my aunts. But I didn't reject them and i carried on asking my parents(still pinning hope that they would come along) and yes, mom agreed without a second thought ( she has been longing to go overseas for a long time too) and dad agreed too.

My feelings? I felt over the moon! Because not only my parents are going, boyfriend agreed to take leave to go with us too!

So it's official! WE ARE GOING BKK ON THE FIRST WEEK OF JUNE!:D

This marks the third valentines's together with boyfriend. We didnt manage to celebrate our second valentines day last year as it coincided with the second day of chinese new year. So this time, we did manage to take out our time to have a little celebration. Boyfriend managed to get a day off at camp just to spend the entire day together.

Since we shouldn't take advantage of lovers day that will happen once every year to celebrate the love we have for one another , we both agreed on a simple date. I stayed over at his house on the previous night just to do some errands. On the morning of lovers day, we both managed to wake up rather early for breakfast. Breakfast was made by boyfriend. My all-time-favourite scrambled egg eith sausages western-type breakfast that was filled with loves. (;

We only manage to head out in the late afternoon. We intended to watch a movie. And yes, we watched the billionaire- a real life story of the Tao kae noi's founder. It wasn't a bad movie just that it was a little draggy in between the show. Dinner was at Aston@ the Cathay. Yes, and this is the first time that I ordered an ribeye set to eat. And it really turned out great.(;

And that's how we celebrated our valentines' day together! Next up would be our third year anniversary.(;

I finally turned 21 on the 2nd day of Chinese new year. ! And so, that means it was twice a special day for me because it was Chinese new year and my birthday at the same time. My parents thought that since our relatives are coming over my house on the first day of Chinese new year, why not put up a party to celebrate it with me. And yes, they set up a party with me. Daddy being the chef of the day cooked loads and loads of food to entertain our relatives. He even lend the buffet equipments from his office. Mom , on the other side, was the helper of the chef. She woke up early in the morning to get all the ingredients ready for cooking. Aunt jenny was somehow the coordinator of the party, she called all of our relatives to inform them of the celebration we will be having on that day so that they could get their presents ready. Micheal uncle and the two kids were so kind by helping me decorate up the place for me. (;

Who will be as lucky as me for having everything so well planned out?(; It was the first ever time that I celebrate my birthday with all my father and mother side relatives as well as my beloved boyfriend!

So during the cutting cake session, we took quite a long time taking pictures with all my relatives. In short, I had a blast for turning to the legal age of 21. Even relatives who didn't get to attend make sure I got my presents. Heh.:X

But, on the downside, I didnt manage to have some quiet time with boyfiend. Sneaked out before the midnight strike to his ah yi's house for some mahjong. And On the exact date of my birthday, We went over to his uncle's house for dinnner. I guess that marks the end of my birthday post? (;

Before i post up my Chinese new year post, I would like to take my time to
Share a bad news with all of you.

Right before we could tune in the right mood for Chinese new year. Our two beloved mother guinea pigs - meh meh and coco passed away. And sadly, we didn't managed to let their babies survive too. Both of them passed away after giving birth to their babies. It wasnt a problem of their age as both of the guinea pigs had experience in giving birth . So boyfriend and I suspected that it might be because of the improper care during their pregnancy period.

Meh meh who first passed away, had her baby passed away the moment it was out. And right after two weeks, coco had gave birth to two baby. The first baby was a similar case as meh meh's baby. The other baby managed to survive. We both even thought that it wasn't a bad news after all. Not after two days, we realised that coco was weak at her hind legs and hence did not bother to take care of her baby. So, both of them passed away due to the lack of food and water.

This actually thought me a lesson in life- to treasure and cherish your loved ones before it is too late. A moment ago, two of our guinea pigs were happily roaming around the cage, and the next moment, they passed away after giving birth. It was supposed to be a good happy news and it eventually turned out to be something sad.


Thanks for being a great companion in our life.We will never forget those happy days we had with you. Rest in peace.

It really amazing to see how fast time have passed! I realise that time passes fast when u get older and older or was it because that we are so busy with all our work that we didnt realise how time fly?

Anyway, just a few more days to a new year. So here I am posting for my achievements as well as my resolutions for the new year.(;


For as long as I remembered, I have set myself two goals for the year 2011. Sadly to say that I didn't much achieve them. First, getting myself to take in more spicy food(?)
Apparently I am still trying a bit by a bit for taking spicy food . Well, I am just hoping I can succeed them in this upcoming year!:X second, losing some weight(?) I have not lose much weight but I am glad to say that I have not gain much weight too. Isn't maintaining better than to gaining?Opps.

Talking about the year2011, I would say its another year of growing up? Because I have learned quite alot of lesson. And the biggest lesson would be learning to treasure my loved ones. Some months back, I have major breakdown with boyfriend. I have done something that disappointed him very much. I was on the verge of fighting to get everything back hoping that he will forgive me. And yes, he did. I know how much effort he made to get us back on track. :" thanks my dear for every single thing that you have done. I know the effort you made for me.sorry for making such a sinful mistake. I know this is going to make an impact on you and on us.but we are going to make it all work. Because i love you.Xoxo."
2. Just like any of the teenagers out there, I am at the crossroad of my life. I know exactly how scary was it to think of the future.thank god that I have boyfiend and family with me. They helped me through the difficult times and I managed to get something out of it too. So I took out the daring step by getting into a private course rather than continue studying in tp. And now, Although I might not know what life would give me but I have did my part in getting what I wish to do in the near future.
And till now , it really turned out great.
3. The third major thing that affected my life would be losing a blackberry. A few months back,boyfriend bought a blackberry for his upcoming enlistment. After he configured most of the stuff. We decided to exchange our phones before his enlistment And I literally lost the phone after a call with mom. I carelessly put the phone on the bench and forgotten about it. We realised it 5minutes after we left. And guess what? Poof, it was stolen. We went do the necessary procedure like going to the information counter then the police station. We were told that they will call us the moment they found it. Although we knew that the chances were slim, I still hope that the phone could be found. But it wasn't. I really regretted badly and hate myself for losing it. Boyfriend wasn't angry at me for losing the phone and even cheered me up . Right, from there onwards, I swear that I will be extra careful with the stuff I carry out.

Thats the three huge lesson that I have learned in 2011. And I am
Sure these lesson had made me a better person in life.

Back to it, there some other small achievements during the year that I think I should have mention it.
1. I managed to learn the adult game-mahjong! I wanted to learn this when i first went over to boyfriend's ah yi's house during Chinese new year. I guess you guys know that new year is all about eating, getting red packets and gambling! I wasnt up to poker and boyfriend think that it is quite a complicated game to learn? His mom encourage me to learn mahjong because they always in need of one "kaki"? At first, I learned through watching them play as that was how boyfriend learned it. But I find it quite difficult because each game can win differently. So I decided to learn through website. I found some website online that teaches them and I kind of practise it through a website game till I get a heck of it. And tadaahhh~ I am now able to play with them.! I felt so glad that I took up mahjong because that's what we do whenever we are bored. !
2. Managed to go USS!
I wanted to go USS ever since they first opened it but I never found time to go there. Not until we celebrate one of our anniversary over there. The rides and the places there were so fun. Managed to reach in the late morning and managed to played till 9plus in the night.
.
3. Get closer with my family
There are times during this year that I didn't have time to accompany my family. I felt really bad about it as being an only child, I should have accompany my parents more often. Thank god that xiaoyi organise a trip over to genting. I can see that mom was over the moon when she heard that I am free to go with her. During the entire trip, She felt so relax and never ever bother with any of her housework or work related matter. Grandma also came along with us.grandma was seated most of the time and there's one time sanyi forgotten where she was seated! It was damm hilarious but we managed to find her in the end. It's a pity that boyfriend didn't join but I am still glad that I went. (; As I am growing up, I get to realise how important a family is. Because they would never failed to be there for me to give me support, never ending love and care.

Coming back to it, year2011 is not bad but I'm sure that the next year would be even better . I get to welcome year2012 by celebrating my 21st during Chinese new year! I mean like who get to do that?(;

Apart from that, I have come up with a short list of what I would like to achieve for the upcoming year.

1. Getting my driving license By next year.I don't know would It be hard to learn driving because I have not started my Practical yet. I will be taking my ftt 9days after a new year . And if everything goes right, I
Can start learn probably om feb? Keep your fingers crossed for me!

2. Able to travel overseas for once or twice next year? Daddy told me that he will be bringing us to bkk! So, I hope he kept his words and make it happen. Haven't been travelling to other countries other than the usual malaysia and china. I Always envy thise bloggers who went to countries like Taiwan, hongkong or Japan! Gahhh.://

As for now, I have only thought the following two goals to be achieve for the upcoming goal. If I happened to have more, I will then keep it posted.
I am sure year2012 will be a better for us!:D
