I ♥ HK!
What's that cross ur mind when u first see the title "I ♥ HK"? The latest Hong Kong movie casting by Eric Tsang and many others famous actors actresses? :p Hahhah then u make a wrong guess. I'm just want to share with u a cute souvenir that I got from a friend. Thanks to her for buying these little cute "I ♥ HK" key chains for all of us in the lab. There are many colors for eg. black, white, pink, blue, red, green, purple, etc. And I get myself a white one. Pretty pure white and cute. I like it very much :)
Tell me it's cute please!! ♥

I feel so happy that I received National Science Foundation (NSF) scholarship from Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI). This is a great award as well as a powerful encouragement for me to continue striving for my postgraduate study! Ya, for u to get to know more about me, I think I should tell u this *thick face* :P I'm officially a postgraduate student registered in University of Malaya (UM), pursuing master in medical science. It is by research and so tonnes of research works (mainly focus in virus) will keep me occupied. Tough life :(

I received the scholarship contracts during CNY holiday hence I got no spare time to deal with it. And 24-02-2011 is the last day for the students to submit the it. Things to be submitted together with the agreement included photostated I/C, stamp duty, stamping, etc. I felt nervous actually because I do nothing/ prepare nothing for the contract until 19-02-2011 only I rushed back to hometown to get the signatures from principal of secondary school. And ohh my......! Although they supposed to have additional class in that beautiful Saturday but they went off early before I reached T__T *heart-broken* So all what I can do is just WAIT..till Monday (21-02-2011).

Went to my secondary school very early in the morning and thanks God i managed to get the pricipals' signature. Then i went to Hospital Mentakab for a body check up. I didn't know student have to pay for it. They charged me RM20 for the X-Ray and RM20 for the pregnancy test. I'm not really happy with the service, freaking slow, the nurse and doctor do not have work ethics as well. The doctor don't even look properly on my X-Ray and he didn't even check on me. He just asked whether am I sick? I dropped him an answer "NO" then he wrote everything "NORMAL" in my medical report and done. Sweat. Drove back to KL at around 5pm.

Their white coffee tastes so good! I like it very much. I had butter kaya toast and half boiled eggs too, nice :) After that I drove back to UM post office to buy five RM10 duty stamps. To find a parking took me 15minutes sigh. After that I back to my lab to certified all my photostated documents such as I/C and payslips. Then I went to Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri which located at Jalan Duta. I don't know the direction and i do not have gps. I just google maps and managed to reach there safely.
And i gotta wait for like another 40 peoples only my turn to get the stamping. I wait for like around 1 hour and 45 minutes. After had my lunch with the labmates at UM, I drove to Putrajaya to submit the contracts. Luckily i took the correct route and reached there safely at 3.45pm. Met one of my UKM friends, feel so bad that she can recognizes me but I do not know her at all. Contracts submitted and I drove back to UM. It is already 5pm++.
I feel so exhausted but happy too, now I'm waiting for the government and UM to bank in the scholarship $$$ to me muahhahahha :D
Ohh ya, nextime i shouldn't have prepare all these things at last minute. It is so risky.

It's not too late yet to blog and share about all the happenings during Chinese New Year right? This update gonna be a short one because my rabbit CNY's day one just nothing much to talk about. This year I'm not really longing for the arrival of CNY, it seems getting more and more boring year by year. Most of the friends are not back in hometown and holiday is getting less and less.
Besides, we also bought a small piece of birthday cake for Wei Shien since he always complaining that he has to share one birthday cake with others (either Ling Ying or Cheng Kit) haha.
There goes my 1st day of rabbit CNY in year 2011.
Day 1
Didn't manage to pay a visit to any relatives house, only gathered with friends. First stop at Esther's house, second stop at Pei Wei's house then Thomas's house and last Kent's house. Actually we snapped many photos with Bopet's DSLR but he is way too slow to upload the pictures on facebook and it is really difficult to get all the photos from him.
And this is why i can only share one group photo of us here................for u
♥ This is a very nice group photo, isn't it? I like this picture very much.

Happy birthday to Xin Yan (my lovely housemate), a very sweet and friendly girl ♥
Sharp at 12am, we gave her a birthday surprise. We bought her a cake. Ain't the cake looks just so flavorful and decorated? :D Although it was not a big surprise but I think it will be a memorable one. Everyone wants to feel remembered, loved and celebrated on their birthday, isn't it? :)
Tadaa..... Xin Yan! I just love her smile. She is so cheerful all the time and happy-go-lucky.
Last but not least, group photo. Presents to u my housemates: Evon, Xin Yan, Shireen, Shirlin, Tze Lun and Smith :D

Guess none of u ever heard about Mr. Bear cafe, right? Coz it's a new concept cafe which located at a small town in Pahang (Mentakab). But if there's the other Mr. Bear cafe, please do lemme now. I won't hesitate to pay a visit to check it out, to try on new foods, etc.
Speaking of "Mr. Bear", I thought I supposed to see many bear bear decorations in the cafe, but none! except the winnie the pooh ring folder which contains the menu (as shown in the picture below). A lil bit disappointed hmmm..

.♥ The winnie the pooh ring folder... yupez they put the food menu inside such cute ring folder...
.♥ The menu. A lil bit disappointed too because they served most of the mamak/restaurant foods only such as fried rice, mee etc. Nothing really special, sigh!
.♥ The internal design of the cafe. So pinkish so cute right? It attracts many youngsters especially those secondary school students.
.♥ The external design of the cafe. So lovely and classic isn't it? They should named the cafe "Princess Cafe" :DD
.♥ Now introduce to u the drink ordered by my sister - hot flower tea with honey, RM 2.50 only. For me, it just tastes like honey drink that u can make urself at home. Just so common and i don't know why my sister like it so much.
.♥ My iced lemon tea, RM 2.50 only. The worst ever iced lemon tea that i had tried sweat to the max (-__-)lll So sour! I guess they forget to put in some sugar/ honey??
.♥ My sister ordered salted egg chicken with white rice, RM5.50. Surprisingly it tastes good!
.♥ And i ordered butter fish with white rice, RM 6.00. Recently I had consumed many chicken hence i go for fish. It tastes okay only. I prefer the salted egg chicken maybe the fish don't really match with the butter.
.♥ French fries, RM 3.00. I didn't know nowadays french fries is so expensive. This small portion costs RM 3 -__- I think with additional few bucks u can buy a very big packet of fries in Carefour/Giant/Tesco etc.
.♥ Butter soft shell crab, RM 7.00. Another side order, don't be surprise that both of us have such big appetite hehe. I have to recommend this, really nice. Nicer than the one i used to order in Zanmai Sushi hehe.
.♥ Last but not least, a picture of me with the not-so-nice-iced-lemon-tea. Hope u enjoy reading this post :)
Keep following me and I will share with u more, okay? ♥
Muackkks! :)

Happy Chinese New Year everyone!!
I'm back in hometown (Mentakab, Pahang) since Monday, together with my youngest brother. Can't wait to celebrate this long-waiting CNY hehe although it's gonna be a short and rush one. Why? Because I'm only available on Chor Yat (初一) to gather with friends and to visit relatives. Pity -__- I wish i can have more time to go wild and crazy with the Mentakab-old-friends. Luckily we had one gathering on CNY eve to celebrate LY's birthday. Not bad, 18 of us :)
Ohh ya, we bought Secret Recipe's green tea cheese cake for her. For me, it tastes a bit weird though, maybe I'm not a big fans of green tea. Try it and judge urself.
Good day nice friends awesome gathering! ♥

A story to share with u guys :)
This is very interesting..........(to men) please take time to
ponder........(to women) enjoy the story..........
Young King Arthur was ambushed and imprisoned by the monarch of a
neighbouring kingdom. The monarch could have killed him but was moved by
Arthur's youth and ideals. So, the monarch offered him his freedom, as long
as he could answer a very difficult question. Arthur would have a year to
figure out the answer and, if after a year, he still had no answer, he would be put to death.
The question was: What do women really want?
Such a question would perplex even the most knowledgeable man, And to
young Arthur, it seemed an impossible query. But, since it was better
than death, He accepted the monarch's proposition to have an answer by
year's end.
He returned to his kingdom and began to poll everyone: The princess, the
priests, the wise men, and even the court jester. He spoke with everyone,
but no one could give him a satisfactory answer. Many people advised him
to consult the old witch, for only she would have the answer. But the
price would be high as the witch was famous through out the kingdom for
the exorbitant prices she charged.
The last day of the year arrived and Arthur had no choice but to talk to
the witch. She agreed to answer the question, but he would have to agree
to her price first.
The old witch wanted to marry Sir Lancelot, The most noble of the Knights
of the Round Table, And Arthur's closest friend! Young Arthur was
horrified. She was hunch-backed and hideous, had only one tooth, Smelled
like sewage, made obscene noises, etc.
He had never encountered such a repugnant creature in all his life. He
refused to force his friend to marry her and endure such a terrible burden,
But Lancelot, having learnt of the proposal, spoke with Arthur. He said
nothing was too big of a sacrifice compared to Arthur's life. And the
reservation of the Round Table. Hence, a wedding was proclaimed and the
witch answered. Arthur's question thus: 'What a woman really wants?'
She said, 'Is to be in charge of her own life.'
Everyone in the kingdom instantly knew that the witch had uttered a great
truth. And that Arthur's life would be spared.
And so it was.
The neighbouring monarch granted Arthur his freedom.
And Lancelot and the witch had a wonderful wedding.
The honeymoon hour approached and, Lancelot, steeling himself for a
horrific experience, entered the bedroom.
But, what a sight awaited him. The most beautiful woman he had ever seen lay
before him on the bed. The astounded Lancelot asked what had happened.
The beauty replied that since he had been so kind to her when she
appeared as a witch, She would henceforth be her horrible and deformed self
only half the time. And the beautiful maiden the other half.
'Which would you prefer? She asked him. 'Beautiful during the day .... or
at night?'
Lancelot pondered the predicament.
During the day he could have a beautiful woman to show off to his
friends, but at night, in the privacy of his castle, an old witch!
Or,
Would he prefer having a hideous witch during the day?
But by night a beautiful woman for him to enjoy wondrous, intimate moments with?
(If you are a man reading this...) What would YOUR choice be?
(If you are a woman reading this) What would YOUR MAN'S choice be?
What Lancelot chose, is given below:
BUT... make YOUR choice before you scroll down below... OKAY?
ê
ê
ê
Noble Lancelot, knowing the answer the witch gave Arthur to his question,
He said that he would allow HER to make the choice herself.
Upon hearing this, she announced that she would be beautiful all the time.
Because, he had respected her enough to let her be in charge of her own
life.
Now... what is the moral to this story?
ê
ê
ê
The moral is...
1) There is a witch in every woman no matter how beautiful she is!
2) If you don't let a woman have her own way, things are going to get ugly.
So, always remember:
IT'S EITHER 'HER WAY' OR IT'S 'NO WAY'
