Glorious Moment for Malaysia!

I insisted in going to watch the All England final.
Though my legs hurt, I was limping my way there. I know, I need to go witness Malaysia's victory for the day!
And sure enough, our country's Lee Chong Wei, did not let anyone down that day!



See, he was sooooo effing near to me!!!! But too bad, he refused to turn his head.
And sorry for some blurry pictures. The stupid moron kid besides me keep shaking the bar in front of me, knowingly my body was against the bar, and obviously, I was also shaken by it. Damn him.
Especially when he saw me snapping away at Lee Chong Wei, while he was yelling "Tago!! Tago!!!", he started using his head to block me. Trust me! He moved his freaking stupid ridiculous looking head right in front of my face. And when I tried bending lower, he went lower too, when I tried shifting my head to the right to avoid his head, he went right too! Bloody fool little guy. And he looks about 10 years old only. If this happens in Malaysia, I would have bloody yelled at him!








There were soooo many Malaysians that day.
Shouting and cheering.
The best part was when the game just started, someone from the crowded shouted
"Belasah Sama Dia!!!"
And everyone burst out laughing.
To be somewhere out from Malaysia, that is when one can feel, that we are truly, One Malaysia!
Being in Malaysia, One Malaysia is total bullshit! Racism happens everywhere you go in Malaysia, and the government dares say One Malaysia???

But here, in Birmingham, I was sitting beside a Malay family wearing Malaysia Boleh shirt. And right behind me, an Indian Boy was sitting with Malaysia's flag on his lap, waiting to cheer.

We definitely don't see unity in Malaysia.
We can only witness unity during a Badminton match.

Everyone was shouting:
"Malaysia, Boleh!"
Then it became:
"Lee Chong Wei, Boleh!"
Then Malaysians creativity kick in, and it became:
"Misbun, Boleh!"

Valentine celebration

Boo! Sorry folks, no pictures of Vday celebration. How to snap pictures, when it was just the both of us out having our romantic date? *if eating buffet, and watching movie is the ideal way to celebrate a romantic Vday, then, ah-ha....ROMANTIC, it shall be said*
Lolx....nevertheless, I was happy then. Therefore, since with the absence of some pictures of *US*, I shall present to you people, 2 Chinese new Year pictures of *US*.

Ok, that is me...I believe I was drinking Heineken, no? But, why do I look like I have been forced to bottoms up a glass of pure Whiskey instead?


Yes, undeniably, it was well written all over my face, " STOP BLOODY GIVING ME ANYMORE ALCOHOL".....

We celebrated Chinese New Year on the eve. And of course, I had my share of Vday celebration with YP on 14th Feb. It wasn't much of an awesome way to spend Vday, however, I appreciated it very much that for someone who hates going out in the cold, he took the trouble to bring me to this highly recommended buffet restaurant, and paid a ridiculous price for the meal, especially for someone who can't even eat up to 2pound worth of food-Me.
After that, we went to watch The Wolf man. I did enjoy the movie, though I knew, he was struggling hard to understand the conversation. There was no subtitles, and I felt really bad for demanding to watch a movie on that day. I could have easily settled for movie in the comfort of his room. PPS has tonnes of movies, with subtitles included.
I know I am bad. But I can't help it.

Chinese New Year celebration in UK!!!

First time in my life I celebrated Chinese New Year in a totally unrelated country.
BIRMINGHAM, UK!
However, being Malaysians, we all, memang everything also boleh.
We had our own party. Bought everything needed, prepared the steamboat, made our own curry puff, wrapped our very own popiah...(damn, the sengkuang was damn freaking expensive. 7pound per kg. Insane!)
I was the lazy girl. When everyone was busy lending a helping hand, I was in the comfort of my own room, watching my favourite korean drama for the second time. It was until this guy who owns a RM12,000 pro camera came up to me in my room, and said this,
"to the girl who did nothing, look here, let me take a picture of you."
Shiiiitt......
Damn, the last thing i wanted, was to be remembered as the lazy bum who paid, did nothing, and ate through the night.
So, I finally got myself a position for the night. THE vegetables washer!
LOOK!


The night went on well with too much food for all...and my bf who is always the odd ball out did not join in the fun.
Everyone wore red, but he was not bothered, he was having this really bad sore throat, and poor guy couldn't enjoy any Malaysian delicacies.


Too much alcohol for the night too......but I was restricted to only Heineken, and a few sips of the very geli Green Label.

My friends and I.....


The whole bunch of us.....the Willow House gang!!


This is the consequence of not being able to emerge first in a fish ball eating competition. This girl was forced to bottoms up the entire bottle of Jack Daniels. Thank goodness it was not a punishment for me, or else, you'll be seeing me vomiting in the toilet, and most probably being hurled back to my room by the Bf with a one hour lecture for the night. So, lucky me, got off the hook this time. Look at me, finding myself being entertained by the tormented girl. Ooohh...and Heineken was behind me. That was what I was allowed to touch for the night.


Happy people!


Trying to act stupid....


Ok, when the supposedly low alcohol level Heineken kicked in, let the game begin!!


Yes...when it went slightly over.....I look like I was in pain.
Obviously! Damn, the bf was standing right behind me watching all the craziness that was on.

And that's all for the day! Happy Chinese New Year!

Happy Chinese New Year

Happy Chinese New Year to all my readers. Let's pray hard that this year we'll all have better and prosperous year ahead.
Every year, when it's near CNY time, the only few things I am excited about will be all the valid excuses I have to ask for money to splurge on clothes, bags, shoes. One can just keep buying, and no need to feel guilty. Well, it is after all, new year, ain't it?
New year means, new clothes, new shoes, new bags, new undergarments...and it is actually a never ending list of new stuff to add to the already overflowing wardrobe.
Needless to say, the ang paos make Chinese New Year something worth looking forward to, too. No?


This is just a short update on what's been on.
A small birthday party for two beloved friends.
We had it in this KTV place, which I have no idea what is it called. The best part for me, is that the anti social bf of mine was willing to tag along. Well, I am darn sure it did shock many to see him there too. And I'm glad my friends tried making sure he was at ease. A great big thanks to them.
That was a splendid night, reminded me a lot like Malaysia, when friends hung out back then to chill and spend quality time together.
I miss Malaysia. But I'll make my stay here meaningful as well, hope I can enjoy the few last months here...and live with no regrets.
