Dil Birthday Chalet / Rurouni Kenshin: Kyoto Inferno

Dear Diary,

First and foremost, Happy Belated Birthday Cousin Dil! Semoga panjang umur dan murah rezeki. And may Allah SWT bless you with all the wonderful things in life. Amin!

Dil held a birthday party at Downtown East Pasir Ris on Saturday evening. I couldn't feel happier seeing all my relatives. Headed home on Saturday after work to continue packing my stuff since I was going to overnight at the chalet. (Only us Cousins overnight, while all the aunties & uncles were sent home. Lol!) I was home much earlier and so I managed to do some room and house cleaning. Hehe!

After which, Ressal & Adik fetched me and we headed off to Downtown East and Mama didn't follow. So that left me being alone since I had no companion while everyone had their other half with them. I did ask D along to the chalet and even my cousins did as well but as usual, he didn't want to. And I didn't want to force him either into doing something that he isn't comfortable with.

Chalet,

Reached the chalet and Ressal immediately helped Pokde with the BBQ-ing. Initially, Cousin Mas and Adik were sitting with me accompanying me to eat and then Cousin Mas left to sit on another table with her mom, Mak Teh with all my other aunties as well. After which, Adik then left to help Ressal with the BBQ-ing. Cousin Lyna was with her husband, Oppy sitting on one table. My brother was sitting with Cousin Firman on one table. Cousin Dil was sitting at one table with his girlfriend, Hyrah. While all other families took one table each to eat together and I was left all alone by myself. Tskk.

So, I kind of complain to D when we met on Sunday. HAHAHAHA!

Me: People were like asking about you at the chalet. Yelahhhhh. Just because somebody don't want to follow me whatttt. Everyone were all seated down together with their family and their other half at one table each. So I end up sitting alone all by myself because my mom wasn't there. I mean, my cousins did ask me to join them when they saw me sitting alone but...I don't want to be a lamp post.
D: Okay b, I'm really really sorry. It's my fault okay. I know it's my fault. I'm so sorry.
Me: What to doooo. I terpaksa makan sorang-sorang. Termenung sorang-sorang.
D: Wah b, don't rub it in. You make me feel very guilty. I'm really really sorry. But I seiously segannnnnn lah b.

An then it was time for cake cutting ceremony,

 

The cake was awesome! My love for cakes.

After the celebration, at around 0000 hours, my aunties & uncles left the chalet, leaving us cousins behind. We played Charades and card games such as Uno, Old Maid and Snap and were making deafening noise. HAHAHA! It was seriously awesome! And we didn't sleep the whole night. Dil's best friends was there too, playing Fifa 15 which I bought for my brother on Xbox 360. They stayed till the morning before leaving at around 0600 hours.

And we cousins, had breakfast at Downtown East, McDonalds after which.

 

I was seriously so full from this that I even skipped lunch. Lol!

By the time, it was almost 0700 hours and everyone started to feel sleepy. I managed to take a good nap for an hour before we all start to pack and get ready to check-out and head home before 1200 hours. Before napping away, I took some time off to read my book while waiting to feel sleepy since I can't really sleep right after a meal.

 

 

***

The moment I was home, I took a shower and get myself ready to meet D. It has almost been 3 weeks not seeing that boy. He asked me if I was tired since I just came back but I gave an immediate NO for an answer. In fact, I was actually kind of sleepy but I guess, sleep could wait till night but I haven't met him for so long! Even my cousins took their nap till 5pm before they all wake up to go out with their respective better half for dinner. Tskk! But D had to work in the morning the next day, so we can't really go home that late.

----

Met D. Took the bus and headed to Lido to catch the movie he have been wanting to watch so much. I was feeling pretty crap that day. It's the #PrincessPMS syndrome. I get pretty nausea and feel like vomiting each time for pre-menses and it can get really bad.

D: Asal b?
Me: I feel like vomiting. Pening ah.
D: Ehhh b, macam lain macammmmmmm aje nak muntah.
Me: -_-' Apa yang lain macam? Nonsense.
D: U okay tak? Nak balik?
Me: No taknak. I'll be fine soon. It just happens every month. I'm used to it already.
D: Wah susah eh you gini.

Yes. D is not the romantic kind. He is always so direct and in the face kind of thing when he says something. Haha! If you are not used to it, you'll end feeling offended. And I do agree, I find it initially hard to get along/digest with his direct-ness before. But now, I'm like immune to it already. Haha! See, he can even use the word "susah" on me. Basketball.  Anyway, we had another conversation while in the bus which made D laugh out so loud.

D: B..Can u remind me? I nak pass u kad jemputan lah.
Me: Oh okayyy..Huh? Kad jemputan? Kad jemputan apa?
D: Wedding card lah.
Me: Wedding card? Siapa? U punya?
D: Ahh, I punya.
Me: Eh kurang ajar apa?
D: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I didn't expect the reaction. HAHAHAHA! My brother's punya lah! U ni eh!
Me: Cehhhhhh. Wah! U better don't try anything funny eh I tell you.
D: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I thought you were just kidding, so I played along.
Me: Mana lah I tahu. It happens in drama what. Alih-alih je nak kahwin.
D: HAHAHAHA! Sembarang je. See lah, watch so much drama! Maybe one day I should try ah eh. Buat card, letak nama I then kasih you.
Me: Ah b, bagus. You try lah, you try. You tgk apa jadi.
D: HAHAHAHA!

Basketball.

I don't really watch this kind of movie before but what to do, D watches them, so I just comply. Lol!

D: I scared it'll be boring for you or you won't like the movie.
Me: A'a. I tgh ngantok ni. Limit-limit confirm I tertidur. Last time, someone used to get annoyed at me for sleeping while in the movie because I was feeling so tired.
 D: No it's okay. If you're feeling tired or sleepy, tidur je kay?

Ratings: 4.5/5 Popcorns

 

For a person who didn't catch the 1st part of the movie and for not having enough sleep and feeling sleepy. This movie manage to keep me awake and I can't wait for the 3rd part. Lol! Which means it's goooood. Lol!

The movie started at 1640 hours and ended at 1900 hours which shocked us. We didn't expect it to end that late. Lol! Because by then, D wanted to head home already since he is on reservist and have to report in the morning the next day.

And if it's not because that both of us were starving and I was craving for Pastamania, we would have headed home straight. So D suggested just having dinner nearby my place which I agreed. We waited for the bus and it was pretty crowded, so D suggested taking a cab instead. I was nagging at him of how wasting money it is just to cab and how expensive it can be from Orchard to Choa Chu Kang. But he kept insisting because he's the one paying for the cab. Zzz!

Woman being woman it didn't stop there. So I kept nagging at him even while we were in the cab and as I turned to look at him, D was doing this meditation position with his fingers open wide while his middle finger glued to his thumb and placing his back palm on his knees. HAHA!

Me: B?! Asal ni? Hahahahaha!
D: B, I kat rumah my mom nag at me on the left. Ni jumpa you kene nag on the right. Boleh mati I b.
Me: HAHAHAHA! Oh my god. You ni ehhhhh!
D: I dah attend this course ah, anger management course. I'll be just fine.
Me: Bila you attend?
D: Ni tengah attend the course ah ni sekarang. Tgh manage you punya PMS syndrome.
Me: HAHAHHAHA! -_-' Annoying!

---

Pastamania dinner for two.

 

D's bake rice something.

 

My Alfredo Pasta

 



I was struggling pretty bad to eat because of my braces and so I was sooooooo much slower to finish my food.

D: B, susah eh nak makan?
Me: Yah. It's like stuck all over the braces and it's painful to bite and eat.
D: I can see that. Dengan cream sauce semua comot dekat mulut.
Me: I can't lick the cream sauce off my lips. It's painful.
D: Takpe. Take your time okay? Eat slowly.
Me: Okay.
D: B..masih pening lagi tak?
Me: Dah tak.
D: Okay.

After dinner, D send me home before he headed home himself. He wanted to take cab home and I nagged at him till he changed his mind to take the LRT home instead. Lol! Anyway, my iPhone 6 have finally met D. When D saw my wallpaper, he was like..

D: Lawa wallpaper screen you.
Me: Nice right.
D: Okay. Next time we go to the beach and we do this okay?
Me: Yayyyy!
D: But before that I have to train first and go to the gym.
Me: B, berat sangat ke I?
D: Takde lah. I nak kene train aje, so that I can carry you.

LOL! His favourite thing to do. Carry me around. Zzz! Till here. I need to catch up on my sleep now. Very sleepy. Goodnight.

XOXO,

Dear Diary,

More and more articles. Hehe! And I was reading this article the other day:-

Ladies, 9 Signs You've Found the One

1) No Need to Fake It

Most of the time, I don't think I fake anything about myself even with anyone. I guess, it's always best to be yourself and let the right one love you for who you are. No use pretending to be someone else. I guess it's laborious and require a lot of work just to be somebody else that you are not.

I agree that I don't eat "nicely". I dirty the table, I dirty my mouth. D gets me tissue. I can be pretty annoying. I rant and complain a lot and on and on when I'm not happy about something, let's say a particular food? D will just listen or sometimes, he will just shut his ears off. HAHA! I talk to myself (which is what he discover lately. HAHA!) but that's just me and I don't think I have to fake anything about myself.

2) What Makes Him Happy, Makes You Happy (and Vice Versa!)

I'm happy when my loved ones are happy. Not to lie that sometimes that comes with a little envious-ness. Let's just say pay increment or bonuses. Well, of course you are happy for him but you wished you had one too. And let's say doing a Degree, of course he is happy for me, but he wished he is on that par too. Lol! But I guess competition like this are healthy. Indirectly, you are encouraging one another to grow.

3) You Just Want Him

Not really. HAHA! Just kidding. Of course it's only him that you want. It doesn't matter what you do, no matter how boring things can get. You just want him even if it is as boring as just meeting each other just to sit down and talk and not going anywhere else. Or even as boring as a long journey bus ride home and just sitting down together watching online movies in his phone together. It doesn't matter, you just want it to be with him.

4) It's a Mutual Attraction

"Have you ever seen those couples where one person is way better looking than the other and yet, they're both just as into each other? It doesn't matter who finds either of you attractive, what matters is that you're so into each other. You mutually find each other physically, mentally and spiritually attractive!"

I have NO COMMENT on this. Haha! Frankly, I told D many times that I don't find him good-looking. I always tell him, he have some kind of weird square flat face, err, he looks like some kind of china man or even those chikopek look. HAHA! But despite all that I'm still into him.

5) You Want to Share Life With Him

Of course you would love to. We share stories, problems and stuff. And we did talk about this before, somewhere few years down the road but the future is not certain and all we can do is to make doa and Insyaallah. Amin.

6) You Can Compromise Like Pros

Baby steps. Not that we compromise like pros yet but we do try to compromise to each other although I won't deny that it comes with a little tiff here and there. Alhamdulilah. Both of us do give in to each other.

7) He Reads Between the Lines

Not many man are capable of doing this. I've known man who can't even read between the lines AT ALL. They don't know that you are upset with them or even when you are trying to be sarcastic to them. But for D, he is not bad I would say. He missed it sometimes but most of the time, he is quite good. He knows when I'm upset, when I'm not happy about something or when I'm trying to be sarcastic to him. HAHA! And that is enough for me for now.

8) He Accepts You

One of the thing I never have to be concerned about. Even when I put my lipstick on, he prefers me without them. He prefers me without any make up on. He cannot stand sometimes the way I dress, he finds it "revealing", but he doesn't force me to change but give words of advice. He doesn't tell me to lose weight despite I've been gaining weight. He accept me even though I am way too short, way too petite.

9) He Brags About You

D is on a low profile side I would say. He doesn't brag about me, not to anyone or anybody and he doesn't like me doing the same too. No pictures, no nothing on social media etc. I find it hard initially since I am not that kind of person. I LOVE taking pictures but I comply to him. But I would say, things change recently. When he said, "One day, people will still find out and end up knowing about us. So it's okay." Not that we are letting the whole world know. But, it's enough that our family knows, his family knows. My friends & colleagues knows and his friends & colleagues knows about us.

Yesterday,

Met up with my Girlfriends for a short catch up over dinner. Both PLP and I are finally done with exams! While Hana is still on holidays. Sadly, Manda couldn't join us due to guard duty.

I think this is cool, it buzz when your order is ready!

 

 

I had Fish & Chip, recommended by PLP. The set meal comes with soup of the day, a drink as well as a garlic bread. Heh! Price wise is not so bad, $9.80 for this.

 

Hana's Chicken curry. She loves her Chicken curry.

 



It was a great catch up with my girls. It's amazing how we can talk about one topic to another within a few hours. Hehe! From school, to relationship, to gadget, to work etc.

And I can't wait for another meet-up with my RP clique this coming Tuesday, since OZK is finally back in Singapore after a few months training in Aussie and before he flew back to Aussie again. Pilot sehhhh somebody. My friends are all doing well in life, just look at myself. What am I doing with my life? Tskk.

Okay, going to perform Maghrib prayers now. Toodles.

Pictures taken with my iPhone 6. Heh!

A bit suspend here and there. Definitely not for the faint-hearted for those who can't stand the sight of snakesss. Lol! It could have been better but it was NOT bad I would say. For someone that has such short attention span, I managed to sit through out the whole movie without barging off from my sit.

iPhone 6 GOLD

Dear Diary,

I finally get my hands on iPhone 6 GOLD today but I had to go through many hurdles before getting one. And my instinct were almost right yesterday when I don't really feel good about it. I have always been good about instinct. My instinct are always almost right most of the time. When I don't feel good about things, 80% of the time, it's accurate.

My appointment clearly state collection of iPhone 6 at 1100-1200 hours. I reached there about 1015 hours and I was told that I have to come back later at 1100 hours for my respective timing slot. So, well okay, I left the place and had breakfast at McDonalds alone. I came back an hour later and got my queue number, 7100. The now serving queue was 7043. I almost died. The queue number wasn't in sequence because it jumped to queue number like 1015, 3005 in between.

So I thought it was still okay, I waited for almost 2 hours before I decided to leave and head back to my work place and do some work because the queue number was still around 7060++ when I left. I can just literally die from sitting and sleeping down there. And frankly, I am not that kind of person. I NEED to move around. And if there is one job that require me to sit for long hours or sleep, I probably might suffer a terrible depression from it. Yes, I am a total opposite of D.

So, I asked one of the M1 staff how long will it take before my number will be called up. And he told me roughly around 2 hours. I was thinking, just nice. I shall do some work and 1 hour later leave the office to head back to M1. Which I did.

***

When I reached the office, everyone was so excited, thinking I had iPhone 6 with me. They all wanted to see and try it out but I came back empty handed. Lol! Told them I'm leaving again at 2pm to head back to M1 to collect my iPhone 6.

---

2 hours later when I reached M1 I realised I have already missed my queue by 4 person. The queue number state 7104. Again, I almost wanted to die at that point of time. I was thinking if they tell me I can't collect my phone, I will literally scream at the top of my voice there.

So I approached one of the M1 staff to let them know. She send her colleague to attend to me and when he came back he told me to wait for a short while, and they will call my queue number again. And so I waited.

Tunggu punya tunggu punya tunggu. It was almost a freaking hour but they still hasn't called me yet. And the worse thing, the queue number keep ascending! I know it's unlike me because I DON'T do this kind of thing and everyone knows that. I am usually "timid" and a more patient person. But seriously just now, I couldn't stand it anymore. I was too annoyed, too agitated, too angry with fury. I skipped many hours of work for just a FREAKING phone.

Me: Hi, I'm sorry. I just wanted to ask. How long more do I have to wait before my queue number is being called? Because I miss my queue and your colleague told me that they will call me shortly.
M1: Wahhh? You miss your queue.. I don't know how.. (Asked her colleague to help check it out for me)
Me: Yes, I miss my queue. And don't tell me you don't know how you can help me, I have been waiting here for almost a good 4 hours.
M1: But how can you miss your queue?
Me: All I did was to go for lunch and when I came back, I realised I have missed my queue. I think I have waited long enough.
M1: But it's like that. This is how pre-order works. It will still be the same thing if you go to other telecom like Singtel or Starhub. You have to wait.
Me: I don't care about Singtel or Starhub or other telecom and what they do. I have so much problem with the pre-orders the other day and then the credential issue. My slot clearly state the collection is at 11am-12pm and now it is already 3.30pm! So are you telling me that I can't go for my lunch just to wait hours and hours for A phone?! Or I can't even go for a toilet break? Even you guys took turn to have lunch just now. What kind of service do you guys provide?
Another M1: Ma'am we are really sorry Ma'am, we apologize for that. Ma'am, please follow my colleague he will assist you immediately now.

Seriously M1? -_-'

That is seriously another side of me which I rarely turn to, not if it's something that I just literally cannot stand it anymore.

I had problems with synchronizing the app initially. Since IOS8 is a new software and thus, many apps are not really compatible with it yet. The worse thing, my whatsapp that I back up from my old phone couldn't be transferred to my new phone. Thus, I lost all the messages that I had with D. I feel so lousy, so terrible! Because I love to re-read our conversation back sometimes.

So, I deleted the Whatsapp from my new phone and tried to restore Whatsapp back in my old phone. Alhamdulilah, things work out fine. And I managed to get some apps and messages back into Whatsapp. It was only I reached home then I decided to meddle with it again. Initially, I did lose some apps here and there. After which, things work our fine. Alhamdulilah. I managed to restore some things into my new phone as well.

But honestly, my phone now turns out to be like Samsung S3. It's HUGE. Thank God I did not get iPhone 6 Plus which I was initially contemplating to get, since I can watch videos better with huge screen. But I won't be able to type properly with iPhone 6 plus. I already have so much problem typing using my iPhone 6.  Somehow, I still prefer my iPhone 4S kind of size, it's fun size and so easy to text. But oh well, I guess I need to get used to it.

And this boy cannot stop teasing me about my iPhone 6.....

Me: My phone is HUGE. So hard to type. I don't really like.
D: Ah, padan muka. Gatal kan! Siapa suruh beli.
Me: But my phone is not working properly anymore what. B, you are so mean!
D: Hahaha. Alahh, kidding aje.
Me: I know. I'm like used to it. Immune already.
D: Ceyyyy immune seh. Yelah.. bagus lah kalau mcm tu.

Me: Anyway b, you know right, I use our picture as my wallpaper in my phone.
D: Yerp
Me: Apparently, now my phone is bigger in size. It makes your face double the size also. Your face is HUGE now.
D: OHHHHH. Yelahhhh, muka I besar pe.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA! Right back at ya. Forever teasing him about his face shape. MUAHAHA!

Till here. I miss my iPhone 4S but the phone is already deactivated.

10 things you actually learn from being a girlfriend

Dear Diary,

I spend my time heading to work by reading a book or sometimes just browsing through the net. And as I was browsing through the net, I came across this article 2 days back.

http://thoughtcatalog.com/dianne-sindayen/2014/05/10-things-you-learn-from-being-a-girlfriend/

10 things you actually learn from being a girlfriend and here is my take.

1. If you can, avoid expectations.

Being a normal human being, we usually expect a lot especially when it comes to our loved ones. It's because we are willing to do so much for them and we expect them to do, if not more at least the same for us. And I'll be lying to myself if I were to say I have never expect anything of my boyfriend. Well, in fact, I do, I did. But over the years, past relationship taught me to AVOID expectations. The more you expect something, the more you'll be disappointed if it didn't happen. Just go with the flow, if it's going to happen, it'll happen. You'll be surprised if things happens. If not, let it go. Until now, I don't expect D to do 'sweet romantic' stuff for me because he is not that kind of person. And even if D were to tell me he wants to meet up with me the next day, I don't expect us to really meet, in case he has some last minute work to attend to, at least I won't be so disappointed.

2. Be honest.

This part was a little bit difficult for me to adjust to initially. I am an honest person but I usually do it with comforting words so that I won't hurt the other party feelings. But being with D, he is a too honest. Lol! Sometimes he can say stuff that hurt my feelings really bad and I could go on for days being affected by it. HAHAHA! And D always say "I don't like to lie." Which can be a good thing sometimes because you know he always speak the truth even if he knows you will end up getting mad at him. And when he says "You look beautiful today." You know he is not lying or trying to placate you but he is speeaking the truth. Hehe!

3. Never let a day go by without telling him you love him.

I don't do it every day though but when I got the chance I do tell him from time to time that I love him very much and cannot feel anymore bless that Allah SWT have granted him in my life. Just so that I can avoid him from asking me, "You dah jelak eh dengan I?" Hehe!

4. Never get overly attached.

We were both overly attached in our past relationship. But guess both of us learn and so we decided to give each other space. And yes, D and I don't text each other 24 hours. When both are bust, just a couple of text here & there. Good morning, Good night and in between. Plus, we don't meet each other every day as well. At least once a week or once every 2 weeks? It was hard initially to adjust to this, but I guess, they say, absence/distance makes the heart grows fonder and Alhamdulilah it works for us this way. It's the feeling that you feel when you finally get to see each other after a few days of not meeting. Even after almost half a year, I still have butterfly in my tummy before meeting him like as if it was my first time meeting him. Haha!

5. Always be there for each other.

Guys don't usually share much of their problems unlike us girls. But I always tell D that no matter what, I am always here for him and always here to listen. But he is forever afraid that he might bore me with his complains & ranting, which has never been that case, so he don't usually tell me much. But to compare between D & I, he has a better "being there for me" than "me being there for him." When I am feeling unwell, D will text or call to check on me if I'm doing okay. Whereas for me, I'll usually end up forgetting that he isn't well and I don't usually ask if he is okay or isn't.  I will try to work on this. Hehe!

6. Never let any fight or issue go unresolved.

Just like many other woman, I tend to bottle up my feelings, anger or unhappiness. But when you do that, you end up feeling miserable, feeling so terrible of yourself. And despite D always telling me "Next time, if there is anything, just anything, please tell me and don't keep it to yourself." Being stubborn, I still does that. It is when I couldn't take it anymore, I'll burst it all at once like some kind of time bomb. Haha! And that happens especially during PMS, which of course isn't a good thing. HAHA! But I'm always surprised at how good D is, handling situation like this. Because I always remember in my past relationship, talking things out always end up making things turn more sour than what it already was. I don't know how D does it but he always do it well. Problem solved. And I always end up telling myself, "If I know it was this easy to talk things out to him, why can't I just say it earlier?! Why do I have to kill myself for so many days just keeping this inside of me!"

7. Love him for who he is.

Well of course this is important. You have to love him for who he is. It's easy to start comparing your better half with someone else' other half and then end up feeling unhappy in your own relationship. To me, this is very unhealthy. I can easily point out that both D & I, we are like 99.9% opposite of each other. While he is more introvert and prefer to stay home kind, I, on the other hand are more extrovert and adventurous kind. He prefers to stay home while I always prefer to venture out places. While D are street smart, I am NOT street smart and can be really clumsy and pretty mess up sometimes. But I still love him for who he is and he still love me for who I am. Despite knowing how the differences can almost kill us. But they say what doesn't kill you make you stronger, so Insyaallah, we are staying strong for this. Haha! And at the end of the day, that is what that makes him, him and that is what that makes me, me.

If they have to change, let them change because they want to not because you asked him to. A change that is out of their own will are a much more sincere and better change compared to a change that is being asked to. Because this kind of change don't last long and they end up reverting back to their old self.

8. Always make the best out of every relationship.

Nothing last forever and you don't know what the future might hold. If it's meant to be, it is meant to be. Sometimes, there are days you stop yourself from doing the best for your better half, thinking, he doesn't do this for me, so why must I do this for him?

Whereas for me, I am not that kind of person. When I am in a relationship, for as long as I can fight for the person, I will. For as long as I can do everything and anything to make him happy, I will. For every sacrifice I have to sacrifice just for us, I will. And I will always always always always try to be and give the best that I can and make the best out of the relationship.

BUT...one thing about me, as much as I can sacrifice but once I said I'm done, means I'm done.

9. Always leave him wanting more.

Give it a little chase. A little bit of this and a little bit of that but do not give yourself away. And this will do the trick.

10. Be his friend.

You may be his girlfriend but allow yourself to be his friend as well. There will be restrictions in the way he behave if he is going to treat you just a girlfriend. However, if he treats you like both, a girlfriend and a friend, it makes the relationship more comfortable. You can be yourself!

iPhone 6 tomorrow. I wonder what will be like for the collections. Saw the news and the hype and kiasu-ness of people already camping overnight just for the iPhone 6. It makes me sick.

iPhone 6 Pre-Order

Dear Diary,

I finally get to place a pre-order for iPhone 6 Gold today morning. Cannot thank Azmi enough who actually kept a look out for me. The moment I woke up at 0600 hours (I was supposed to do my Fajr prayers but end up side-tracking), I received a text message from him saying M1 line was clear and I could easily place an order. But no, it didn't work that easily though. The webpage kept saying high traffic over and over again.

I used M1 Facebook page to gauge on the condition, when finally someone said he managed to place an order after countless times of refreshing the webpage. I followed the same thing. I refresh the page over and over again. I guess I did that for more than 300 times. It was like a fastest finger first kind of thing. I almost wanted to give up but I told myself, at this hour not many are awake, so I rather try my luck again. Muttered some prayers under my breath and Alhamdulilah! I MANAGED TO!

I wanted to transfer some cash over to my other bank account for the phone deduction but I was afraid it might say session expired which I kept getting it for so many times yesterday, so I just end up using my credit card to pay. Habis lahhhhh this month. Credit card here, credit card there. Tskkk!

But all in all, I am a satisfied Princess because I almost finally get my hands on the iPhone 6 Gold. Self-collection on the 19th September, a nice date as well to remember, monthsary with D. And M1, thanks for being the lousiest and whatever crap you were!

Headed to work. I took 2 Sundays schedule this month because I need to replenish my leaves which is almost as good as zero. Keep taking it for Mama's appointment, exam, assignments and going out with D on his off days during the weekdays. Zzz!

After which the usual, get dragged for weddings just because I am always the stay home one unlike the other siblings.

Reached home and I end up watching movie again. This time, I catch 'How to Train your Dragon' part 1 since I haven't watch it yet and D has already watch it. Seriously, toothless is too cute.

And I wonder if D have helped me with 'Fault In Our Stars' movie. I really want to watch that with him the next time we meet, since we missed that on the cinema. Basically that is all I have been doing nowadays, if not doing and watching workout videos, I end up watching movies, catching almost on all the movies that I have missed.

Well, it's not that bad that I have a boring life now since I am no longer schooling. No assignments, no exams means no stress yet, well for now, but maybe soon, since audit is coming. My annoying boyfriend who is on shift job and rarely get to spend most time with me but it's okay, I am not complaining. In fact, I feel very bless that he takes the effort to spend time with me when he has the time during his off days especially and text me time to time. Alhamdulilah.

Till here.

Ice-cream Waffles.

Dear Diary,

The other day, I drove the family down to the night market at Causeway Point and had Gelaré. Dah Halal oi. And then off to Mustafa Centre to do some toiletries shopping. Well, driving skill? Not very good. But I'm sure over a few more practices, I will get the hang of it. Hehe!

My sister and I actually fought over this waffle! So annoying. Hahaha!

At Mustafa Centre,

Adik came across this and told me to tell D to get this for me. Because apparently, she said she has never come across with someone that has such a bad PMS than me ever. Zzz!

Me: My sister is so annoying. She said she haven't seen someone with the worse PMS than me. She said these pills supports PMS and told you to get one for me. But my PMS is not that bad what!

D: Ur PMS part. B.. u klau dh pms kn. Sampai marah2 i. Tk rabak ke tu?? Smpai i balek rumah air mata menitis.. Lol. K... i'll try to find it.

Wahhhhhh! Both of them can seriously tag team on me man.  This is dangerous.

Anyhoos, I love Causeway Point. Remind me of the good old days back then during Polytechnic days. I used to hate RP a lot and wanted to graduate from it fast. But now, looking back, I do miss those times a lot. I miss being with my clique especially. We were all from the same class in Year 2 Semester 1 and that was when we started to bond with each other. And as we move on to Year 2 Semester 2 and into Year 3 entering different classes, we always had this join chat in MSN every single day. We will make sure we will go down for some light breakfast at the top floor of W1 café together. I remember eating Tortilla wrap with lots of chilli every single day because it's CHEAP. Just a dollar. Hehe! And then having only bubble tea for lunch. It was goooood because I always manage to save money, easily 1K in a year.

Sadly, I didn't know D at that point of time despite being in the same Polytechnic. I didn't even notice him back then. It would be good if I know him or at least notice him. Can keep some good look out. Lol!

Meet up with D yesterday and I brought him for dessert over at Ben & Jerry's, Vivocity since he had never tried the ice-cream there before. Hehe!  It was my treat because I felt so bad that he actually waited for me for almost 2 hours +++ before I end work because his meeting ended wayyyy much earlier than expected. And he said he has gone rounding the whole of Vivocity until he don't know where else to go. Lol!  Poor boy.

The moment he saw me,

D: Wah b.
Me: Whyyyy? What's wrong?
D: Why do you have to look so beautiful today?
Me: Crazy!
D: Elehh, dalam hati mesti you cakap. Bodoh pe I, sekarang baru tahu you lawa.

HAHAHA! Annoying. I am NOT beautiful seriously and he rarely say this kind of stuff to me. How do you even expect me to react? That was why I called him crazy. Tsk!

D had Strawberry and Chocolate Therapy Ice-cream with Brownies. Until now, I seriously don't know how my boyfriend can actually eat a combination of Strawberry that is SOUR with Chocolate Therapy that is SWEET. It tasted horrible. Hehe! It was a bad combination and even his future sister-in-law agrees with me. Tskk.

So, me being someone who has "good" combination of ice-cream. I had,

Chocolate Fudge Brownie and Cookie Dough ice-cream with waffle. It tasted YUMMY but I was complaining all the way. HAHA! And D had to listen to me ranting. I mean seriously..

• They served the Brownie in a cup now and no longer on the plate. How does it even make it possible for someone to eat properly?
• The waffle I had at Dempsey Hill was 1 full waffle and here, they served me HALF a waffle with the same price. How disappointing?
• I'm not very good when it comes to cutting whatever, so they gave me a plastic fork and knife with that small paper boat plate. Zzz! I couldn't even cut it properly and so D had to cut it for me into smaller pieces and then he had to end it with a, "So pampered!"

Haha! Okay, practically I am, SOMEHOW. People usually end up cutting/peeling food for me. Like when I go for buffet, my manager will cut the crab for me. Ayah usually peel the prawns for me when we eat outside. The other day I had buffet with my Unimates and Isaac had to peel the prawns for me too. And now D has to do it for me. HAHA! We went for Ayam Penyet Ria, D had to cut the chicken for me. Oh boy.

And when I was eating the waffle, D continuously made the sound of "Ummm...sedapnyaaa" each time when I put the waffle inside my mouth. Annoying man!

Me: Muhammad ___!
D: YES?!
Me: Stop it eh! So annoying!
D: Okay okay. I tak kacau lagi lahhhh.. My colleague asked me the other day, eh how your girlfriend tahan you eh?
Me: How did your colleague know that you have a girlfriend?
D: I told them.
Me: Ohhhhh. And what did you tell them?
D: I said, my girlfriend is already immune to me already.
Me: You ehhh, better stop annoying other people.

Exactly.

***

Me: You know, my girlfriends & I love to hang out around Vivocity during RP days. It's like our hang out place here.
D: Kirakan you mcm minah-minah lepak lah eh.
Me: What minah? I am not. My friends are all Chinese and rarely Malay. I don't do lepak and all these.
D: You seriously. 100% like my sister. The both of you are like totally the same.

Yes, I heard about this so many times. I am like his sister. He always said he had to deal with 2 person of the same character at home and when he goes out with me. Haha! The way we study, the way we feel stress about school, the way we cry before and after exams and the way we score As after that as if we were going to fail. The way how we are both book smart but not street smart. Now apparently, the way we make friends. Lol!

---

We didn't eat dinner since I was already too full from the ice-cream, so we headed home. (D never fail to send me home each time. Alhamdulilah.) Suddenly, my calf started to ache real bad from the workout I did the day before yesterday. I wanted to take the train home but D doesn't like it since the train is always difficult to get a sit and he likes to take the bus. And so we did, we took the bus.

But the journey to the bus interchange at Vivocity requires me to go up and down the stairs. From there I started to limp a bit to go up and down the staircase and D had to almost assist me up and down the stairs holding me carefully. Everyone thought probably I was crazy but D was patient enough with me. Alhamdulilah. D even wanted to piggy back me to make it easier for me but seriously, not in public lah eh.

D: Wah B, you dah mcm like my mom already. Her knee hurts going up and down the staircase.

Me: Ah yelah, I selalu macam your sister. Now I dah macam your mom pula. Lagi lepas ni, I mcm siapa pula?

D: Alah B.. Okay pe. Can get along very well what kalau mcm tu.

Hmmmmmmmm.....

The bus journey was long so both of us ended watching movie, 'How To Train Your Dragon 2' inside the bus. It was sooooooo cute. And well, I don't mind watching movies like this every time. Save money. HEHEHE!

This movie is seriously too cute already. Hehe! And D kept doing the "Take meeeee" thingy. Lol!  If you know what I mean.

Till here. I am still annoyed at M1. I can't do the iPhone 6  pre-order since yesterday! Zzz! Please do something about it okay M1. Please please, SERIOUSLY. I want my iPhone 6 in GOLD. HMPF!

XOXO,

Dissertation Presentation.

Dear Diary,

Had dissertation presentation. Scary as it seems to be. I was supposed to practice over night since I went out the day before to celebrate D's birthday. But guess I was too tired, I end up sleeping till the next day.

Woke up pretty panicking since I wasn't that well-prepared. But luckily, I have all the notes written out on what I wanted to say during the presentation, just that I didn't have the time to practice in front of the mirror, which I promised my unimates. HAHA!

I had a few hours left to leave the house before my presentation, that starts at 1100 hours. Took a quick shower and immediately printed my notes hoping to read them in the train while on my way to school.

The best part is when I was in the train and...

I realized this was how my notes was all printed out to be. There was no way I could really read, only some of the words I can try to figure out what it was.

Nevermind about that.

Reached school half an hour later than the time that I'm supposed to reach. I was the 3rd to do presentation before my 2 other unimates, Alvin & Isaac. I was already so panicky and nervous. I knowwww... the 3 years in RP of practicing to do presentation everyday doesn't really quite help now. I mean, it did before. I was so confident presenting in front of everybody but now.... it kinda died off since it has been 4 years ago. Lol!

It was my turn next, I shivered. As I put my thumbdrive in to open my PPT slides, the presentation slides did not open. !!!! It said something about the format not being compatible with the laptop. I almost wanted to die at that point of time. I asked Alvin to help me change the PPT extension format to something else and it still doesn't want to open. I was about to break down but it was a blessing in disguise that Vaish brought her laptop along. So I stick the thumbdrive into her laptop and Alhamdulilah, my PPT pops on!

After presentation, it felt like a little relieve. I know that it was the end of everything. I could literally list every "painful" days I felt during those 2 years...

My long days of rushing from work to school, it wasn't easy. Sometimes you have plans, but you can't, because you have school. Those days of trying so hard to stay awake in class so that I could pay attention in class. The non-stop munching/snacking in class because we were just too hungry. I have never drank coffee or take any caffeinated drink, started them only when I started schooling + working. I can really take a lot of coffees especially during the exam period and how it felt terrible after that because my body is not the coffee kind. So I always end up having coffee withdrawal symptom at the end of it and it feels freaking terrible. I can just go on for hours vomiting.

Those late night assignments trying to rush through them, catching the dateline. Still, I end up missing datelines. -_-' Crazy difficult formative assessments that almost killed me. Burning the midnight oil to study just because you don't have the time to really study due to work. Sacrificing yourself to bring your laptop to work, hoping you could use the lunch time to squeeze in for some study period and even after all that, you don't have the time to. No more annual leaves because you keep taking them for exams and assignments completion.

Those days I have missed Hari Raya for. Those days I got left for while my whole family went out enjoying. Those days I feel pretty lousy of myself studying while people don't have to feel so much stress like me. HAHA! But it is now over.

Not literally over because I am still feeling pretty afraid of the results. I have no idea what I was writing half the time. Apparently, I heard the results will be out on the 3rd October.

Anyhoos,

Alvin, Isaac, Eileen, Vaish & I had a lunch buffet at 21 on rajah, Days Hotel.

 

 

 

 

 

And of all food, I LOVE this the most. My favourite kind of pasta.

Overall, the food was just alright for lunch buffet, not sure about dinner though. But frankly, I won't come back again here. Lol!

After lunch, we headed down to Balestier Plaza to catch a movie but the movie timing was rather a little bit far off for us, so we took a cab down to Cathay, Cineleisure.

As the movie started, I went like "NOT AGAIN, SCIENCE?! ARE WE NOT OVER THIS?" Hahaha! Because Lucy is a movie which involves more about neuroscience, study about the brain. Err. But the gory part seriously, I was too full from buffet, I almost throw up. I wasn't like this the last time before. :( Tell me, how am I supposed to work under Forensic science? Lol.

Till here, while I figure out what am I supposed to do with my boring life now. HAHA!

XOXO,
Princess Azie Anni.
