First trial paper's O-V-E-R.. :) One down. Several more to go. >.<

Anyhooooo, SHREK 3 IS COMING AND I can't wait *scratch that off*I NEEEEEEEEED 2 watch it!! *Ps. Puss in the Boots found new romance. Oolala.

Can't wait. Did i mention how much i love disney /pixar movies? O. And their songs too!

Tell me, who doesn't favour a lil spice of fairytale in their life? *;p*

Now, for alil story.
The 'L I T T L E' things

After Sept. 11th, one company invited the remaining members of other companies who had been decimated by the attack on the Twin Towers to share their available office space. At a morning meeting, the head of security told stories of why these people were alive... and all the stories were just: the 'L I T T L E' things.

As you might know, the head of the company survived that day because his son started kindergarten. Another fellow was alive because it was his turn to bring donuts. One woman was late because her alarm clock didn't go off in time. One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike because of an auto accident. One of them missed his bus. One spilled food on her clothes and had to take time to change. One's car wouldn't start. One went back to answer the telephone. One had a child that dawdled and didn't get ready as soon as he should have. One couldn't get a taxi. The one that struck me was the man who put on a new pair of shoes that morning, took the various means to get to work but before he got there, he developed a blister on his foot and stopped at a drugstore to buy a Band-Aid. That is why he is alive today.

Now when I am stuck in traffic, miss an elevator, turn back to answer a ringing telephone... all the little things that annoy me. But I think to myself, this is exactly where God wants me to be at this very moment.. Next time your morning seems to be going wrong, your siblings are slow in getting dressed, you can't seem to find the car keys, you hit every traffic light, don't get mad or frustrated; God is at work watching over you.
May God continue to bless you with all those annoying little things and may you remember their possible purpose.


Shrek Shrek Shrek,

Can't Help Myself


You smile a lot
It makes me wonder what your thinking of...
Cause you're in my mind. now till the end of time

I can't help myself
I think i'm falling in love with you.

Dont always find i should tell the world just how I'm feeling it..
Really wanna noe if you feel the same
I just cant help myself
i'm falling in love with you.

You must have been sent...
you must have been sent from heaven above
your everything i have been dreaming of
Too good to be true.

Or is this all just an illusion?
Something which never changes into something real.



* edited: i noe it sounds wierd. It's a song translated from chinese!Can't recall the name of the singer thou..Urgh*

Long-Awaited Lunch


I had a fantabulous lunch! Got to meet up Allie and Su. It's been ages since i last saw allyboo. Miss her so much!!! She looks wikid in her new hairstyle. Now she's got the look with the ATiTTude. =D

Wanna get a pixie cut *more like chop chop* be4 i step into uni. Can't wait!

Oookay. Back to the pt.
Walking back to col,
passed guard house,
bade farewell to fellow dears,
looked left,right,up and down,
failed to c allie/su
thus i decided to tag edmund to check out his "mysterious date".

Chat, chat, tag, chat..
*Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa** I felt something! I really did.
A grip. Someone was gripping my waist!
right into shocked state, vision blured.
Allie. It must be my allyboo. But,wait! nooo way, she doesn't noe ed! She can't possibly be gripping me n ed at the same time. Nahh. WHO IS IT?? *I'm ticklish,yeh noe!*

Turned ard and 'pop' i see a familiar face amidst the crowd of Taylorians. Omigosh. It is my dearest allyboo and no, she wasn't grippin ed. it was just me and my tipsy-topsy world. Lolx.

Gosh. She just had to remind me of how i much i miss her so. blah. =D

Wanted to shock su, albeit knowing her as the calm one. >.< color="#ffffcc">Dear time, why can't you ever be our bestie for once? Why do u keep flying by without a care of the world, you selfish lil one.


I don't want allie to leave. I actually felt like sobbing out loud when she bade us farewell. It's not easy to meet up now that we're leaving so far apart. Allie, I MISS YOU AND I WANT YOU BACK!

Will not emo like a baby. *Reminds self of resolution. Must be more mature. MusT*
O yeah, dat reminds me, on the way to cafe, passed by an ol fwen who looks really familiar. Was trying to think of his name. *pop* I actually remembered, and i shouted out his name! Dang. He couldnt hear me probably due to the earphone plugged to his ears. Without any second thoughts, I shouted once more, this time slightly too loud, and i think i embarassed both myself n him. lmao. One of the silly things i do. Just so that my trying so hard to recall his name not turn out to be in vain. Argh.

And back to the pt again, I'm feeling very happy for almond dear. She'll be leaving for UWA in few months' time. Will wait for the day we go shopping for neccessities together and the day when i can visit u once u settled. ^.^

Ooh Lala
So many things to look forward to,
Liz.

Bummed Out


Today's weather was perfect..... for sleep.
Had to drag myself outta bed, far away from my warm and soft comforters.

Walking along the corridor, the gentle breeze transported me back into my bedroom n i manage to snuck into my comforters and hid underneath for a few seconds before someone zapped me back and i hurriedly made my way to the library. (>.<)

Don't like it when ppl start teasing me about my voice. It's not like i can change it.

Been walking around carrying two files, looking like a mega-nerd. I like being known as a nerd. =) See, i'm being a very gud fwen :p

Gosh, felt so lethargic today. It's been very unproductive. I've been smiling at ppl during conversations yet i've already forgotten the reason i smiled in the first place.

The bubble bath definitely helped. :)

The only thing that stands between a person and what he weatns in life is the will to try it and the faith to believe it possible.

It's time to turn up the heat,
liz.

Me n baby-taken on Sun for papa(needs it for sumthing i can't remember).
How i wish i've got more time to spend wid my baby. >.<


*ps./ anyone noes of any good on9 photo album? Juz in case sum idiot reformat my com without asking AGAIN. *winks*

Not-a-very-pleasant experience.


Despite her being a housewife, she's a workaholic. Thus, i treat every opportunity i get to spend with her as precious as time can be. It was a "not-so-occupied" day for her and she was finally able to fulfill my week-long request to go on a 10-mins shopping spree. There's this boutique near col which is on sale where i tried on some real great catch when i was with my boos. Decided to wait for her to give a say on the pieces so ended up leavin empty handed.

As i was halfway browsing the store, she took a few fast strides, covered the whole boutique, came to me as i was standing right beside the counter and exclaimed:" Come ----, let's go! The clothes here look so 'cheap'. Even if you want my opinion, my answer will be no, i don't like it."
RIGHT BESIDE THE COUNTER, mind you. Flustered, i tried on the only piece i was carrying and left the boutique asap.

Couldn't help talking in a slightly ignorant voice on the walk back to the car.
Oh well, there goes my week-long of anticipation and the few great catch. >.< Oo, did i mentioned the free cuppa coffee from starbucks?! Yup, Starbucks was distributing free coffee! The q filled up the whole shop!
Sen got me an extra cuppa and i tried it but it is VERY VERY BITTER. so i added choc powder and 1 1/2 packets of sugar. Yumm.
The guys on the other hand added FOUR packets!! lolx.
Still prefer the traditional ice blended choc thou.

Craving for ice blended choc,
liz.

Government's Unreasonable Spending


Oh My Gosh. To think that the MALAYSIAN gvmt is going to extend national service to 'probably 2 yrs' to 'instill nationalism'. What's wrg with them!! Is there even proof that it works?
Sooner or later, our country's gonna be facing a budget deficit and god knows what will follow suit. Even if they want to increase government spending for the goodness noes what, WHY CAN'T THEY SPEND ON SOMETHING productive? Say, provide more scholarships. That will definitely bring positive feedback. Improve technology. Say improve our tourism sector effectively. Our tourism industry's got potential.

That brings me to VMY '07. It is definitely not helping. It's a total flop. Do the management even noe what tourists want?? Sure, there's tourists in M'sia but 99.999999% of them who came DID not come due to VMY. Who even noes about the existence of it?? I'd say that marketing is the main factor for the flop. Building the eye of M'sia is one of the lamest excuse i heard of. In case you haven't noticed, the ppl who visit the eye of M'sia are mostly locals! Besides, M'sia which is so-called a culture hub is quite ignorant of art and culture. Everything's banned for the slightest reason. I mean, how can a book of history even be banned in the first place?! Just because it holds the truth you want to conceal? Utter nonsense. Not only that but i have to travel, just to catch quality plays. *note activities and plays in S'pore* Thk goodness, there's more plays available in M'sia currently.

*edited:- ok. so, there will be ONE play i am keen on watching. One.*

Look at how Aus promotes their country! So much more organised and effective. The booklet between The Star definitely caught MY attention!

I love this country BuT definitely NOT how it is governed.

BACK FROM PARADISE

I'm..................
back from paradise!

Four Seasons Jimbaran Bay is THE BOMB.
It's so much prettier than the pictures i posted. :)
If im not mistaken, it's listed in the world's best hotel for honeymoons. Well, it should be!
It's perfect for couples from the beach, lounge, garden, terrace, gazebo, private garden, infinity pool, spa area, bamboo shower to ur very own bathroom!
The staffs are so friendly and helpful, they serve you just as if you're a queen/king.
Two thumbs up. ;)

The hotel itself is peaceful and tranquil. For a lil more buzz, you can always walk out along the beach and you'll reach the row of seafood restaurants just a couple of metres away. Perfect for evening strolls too. The food they serve ain't just cheap but SO fresh it makes you drool. Try dining right on the beach with the friendly wind caressing your face. Simply wonderful.

Sorrrrry peeps, i was too occupied to take pics. Well, it would probably turn out as an understatement anyhow. Words can't describe its beauty. >.<

Today, Taylors 'fell sick' and the electricity went haywired. The lights and air conditioner went on and off so frequently it was such a nasty distraction. Classroom was stuffy and dark. Was trying hard to picture the less fortunates' studying environment and being lucky even to have the chance to study in col to keep myself from complaining like a biatch. It was freakin hot and everyone was drenched in sweat.
Fortunately, our last lesson was called off so me n my boos went to look ard 4 air conditioned place to chill.
McDs:- Full
Burger King:- Full
MinXi's car:- Can't fit + Bit PaiSeh
Eventually, ended up in Sweet Cafe with mango pudding milk tea. :)

Was having lunch in AC when Princess pointed out a baby pram. Didn't thought of it much till she mentioned that there was AN ADULT inside. So, i turned ard to have a look and realised it WAS IN FACT an adult with a baby's body. Felt very unfortunate for him. Is he really gonna rely on friends to push him ard? How is he gonna study? How DOES he studies? Do ppl feed him? Does he uses pampers? I'm always thinking of how to survive in this scary world in the future as i'm going to be working pretty soon yet still behaves like a 6 yr old. What does he ponders about?


Couldn't help trying to catch a glimpse of him. Questions were bombarding me & i felt so utterly helpless. "How can i help?"
Few minutes ticked by and i saw a friend/bro pushing the pram thru the cafe making his way towards the cyber cafe nearby. Thk god he's got someone who cares. Thk u Mighty One for not just abondoning him. May angels be around him boosting him and giving him strength.

The World Is Not Such a Cruel Place After All.
I truly am grateful and appreciate what i have.


=)

I just recovered from a heart attack. Not exactly a mild one, mind you!

Merely a few mintues ago, I was preparing to go on a walk in d garden with Baby Rocky to cure my "Physics Blues". Ready to brave through the darkness, i slipped into my fav goo-ey slippers and was calling out to Baby wen i felt sumthin slimy MoViNg! Argh. At first, i thought it was my "oh-so-creative" imagination but then again my right foot was definitely stepping on a diff surface as my left. It felt like.....F-E-E-L-E-R-S moving.

I lunged into an immediate Panic Attack n slid off my slippers while running like a maniac. Baby was so confused he started to run alongside while sniffing at me! lolx. Turned out that i DiD in fact stepped on a pair of feelers. I stepped on a snail without its shell who happens to be exploring my slippers. Argh. Imagine the horror of it all. The craziest part was of me banging the restroom's door in desperate need of cleansing the feel of slime. I've never been a fan of slimy stuff. Thk god i didn't accidentally murdered d poor snail.

Should be going down to check on Baby right now.

Before i leave:-
Sheenie Beanie: May u recover asap. Miss you tons right now. U've missed skul two days in a row!! That's so not u! =p

Su: Soz i can't make it. Enjoy ur o.h.! Take loads of pics n show me upon my return!

Allie: Have fun. Missin you tons. Feel like hugging u right now! ;p

To my bro who i noe won't be seeing this, but still: Happy Birthday! May you haf a joyous celebration in FS Bali! I love you love you love you!

To my sis: Thanks a million for everything you've done. You're the BesT sister anyone can haf. :)
To all those late nights u spent checkin out flight tickets, dates, hotel availability, let's toast to a wonderful trip! xOxO


Last but not least,

HELLO Jimbaran Bay, Bali!!





*Thunders/rains pretty pls go away*
Off to pack,
