I'm back!
I did not abandon my blog. I was just, urm, caught up with other stuff. I blame exams.
Anyhoo, been traveling quite a bit until recently and that has really wreaked havoc on my studying. Had been trying to stay home and study lately, but that has proved to be rather unsuccessfully though. Last night, while we were out with some friends, the remarks were like "I'm so glad you finally came out tonight!" or "So how was the exam?", which I would sheepishly reply, "Urm, its on October 30th." and then I'll get the confused look. Most of them have no idea what I do, or what I'm studying for. They must be thinking I'm really really slow for needing to study so many months ahead for an exam. Maybe I am. Sigh. But really, sigh, why do we succumb ourselves to this torture? *Just a couple more to go*
So, I was in Toronto during Labor Day weekend and that is one more country crossed out of my to-visit list! Next up, Vancouver, since I already have the Canadian visa. Must do it soon as it only lasts for one year. And I'm thinking what should I do for Christmas this year. (Already have some vague plans for Thanksgiving and if you're interested, you're invited too! Involves turkey and people. Good?) Would love to go to some islands or beaches, but then it would surely cost me an arm and a leg (and maybe a torso) during that period. What to do??
And I know I'm a bit slow, but its better than never right? Ok, I love Karen Cheng's blog! I don't really know why. Can't relate to her much, but then, it's enjoyable to read her blog. Again, I don't know why. So, here, me doing the Karen Cheng. In Boston.

Pookie
I know you don't visit here and you would probably never find your way here either. But none of that would stop me from writing this post.
It's been so long since we've talked and it's been even longer since we've seen each other. What bothers me more is the fact that none of the last few conversations or meetings have been what we would have both liked it to be. Right now, there are so many things that I want to tell you. I wanna tell you how much Ironman rocks. And that I can't wait for Hellboy2 to be released and it better not suck. I know you'll laugh at me when I tell you that I forgot about that wine tasting class that I was so excited about. Then you'll tell me I'm silly for telling you that the bears says hi. I don't want to pick up the phone to call you and say all that. Because you'll know that I miss you. And I truly do.
I wish you'd do all that for me. I wish you'd call to tell me how you are. To tell me that you're fine and ask if we could chat for a bit. You won't ask me those difficult questions anymore and we'll both chat till morning. And there won't be those moments where I catch the pain in your voice and the bitter silence that follows that.
I lied when I said I don't remember the good times. But I meant it when I said I thought more of the bad times. It wasn't because I chose to, it was the only thing I could think of at those moments. After all this time though, my memory is failing me. I'm beginning to forget many things. The good, the great, the bad, the awful. Though sometimes, when I least expect, I find small reminders of you. I forgot your nickname, Pookie, but now I remember and I remember very clearly why. Although I may forget the details, I promise I will always remember what we had. Always.

Exam over, yay!
So my exam is over! I'm not exactly sure how it went, but I'm hoping that it went well. Anyway, recently I'm all excited about a lot of things. Now, bout the two things that I mentioned before, namely Toronto and yatching, I really want to do both. But now I've added a third item on the list. And that is, hot air balloon ride! I was very semangat on doing it last weekend, but then the place I called doesn't start until June 1st, and I was too lazy to call other places. So will wait for it. But think about it, hot air balloon!
Its so nice to come home and not have to worry about studying. It was also very comforting to know that during the weekend I could really enjoy myself instead of having to hurry home, not necessary to study, but just cause I feel guilty most of the time. I keep telling myself it's almost over but somehow it seems so far away.
Anyway, I went to Wisconsin right after the exam. It was a weekend getaway, the first in a very long time for me. Went to House on the Rock, which incidentally is in the middle of nowhere, and then went to downtown Madison for dinner. The House was very intriguing and also so very morbid. The themes were very boudoir in some places and it has a very musky feel to it.
Been meaning to post more pictures on that but uploading pictures is such a huge pain. And as everyone know, I'm an incredibly lazy person. That is also the reason why this post will end abruptly here. Ta!

Thou shalt not complain!
Missed everyone! That's right. Not only have I been missing from my lovely canopee, I've been missing from the face of the earth and Internet. That's because of the exam and also the new apartment which had no Internet connection for nearly 3 weeks. But I'm back now! Alrighty. It's the day before my exam and I'm grossly uneasy. It's that feeling that I get all the time where I'm nervous about the darn exam but at the same time I'm excited because I know it's going to be over very very soon. Tonight, hopefully I'd be knocked out by all the studying (or lack thereof) and wake up in time tomorrow for the god forsaken exam. Then by noon, I'll be done! Hopefully that's the last prelim I'd have to take. *Pray,please god*When exams are over, I will be free to enjoy what's left of my life and summer. Was chatting with a friend the other day, and we were planning to charter a boat/ship/yacht/submarine out on the lake just for fun. It'd be nice to laze around with friends and sip drinks while we tan. Anyone interested?? Ehem, contact me if you are. Alsooo, I wanna go to Toronto. Be it a road trip straight from Chicago or flying all the way to Buffalo and pit-stopping at Niagara Falls first before making my way there. See, I actually have it all planned out in my head. Though there is nothing concrete planned out on paper nor do I know any details (includes having no idea on how to apply for the Canadian visa), but I could run you through a made-up itinerary that would hopefully excite you. Cause it excites me. All is welcomed!
Because I really should be studying instead of blogging, this post is longer than most of the previous posts. Why? Because of my love of procrastination and also the fact that my head is all jumbled with formulas and attempts to understand weird concepts made up by some cracked-up geniuses decades ago. Sigh.
Enuff for now. Must go back to the pits of hell for now. Ta!

Pictures!
I'm too lazy to write much, as per usual. Below are a few unrelated pictures that are posted up because I think I've not posted any pictures for too long. I'll write more next time. Ta!

Badly written Malaysia trip
Feb 2: Fly back to my one and only home. Going to be miserable in air for too many hours.
Feb 4: Arrived in the morning, bout 1 am. Picked up by my parents (I miss them more than I know) and came home to see my sis and grandma. Yay! And cats still remembers me! All 4 of them.
Feb 4: Woke up in the morning and had my breakfast! I had 3 meals a day almost most of the time when I was back. Call it glutton or maybe healthy. But I need/want the food. Nyeh. Met up with Ninie and Jay for late lunch and chat till 5! Yah, we're all long-winded. Went for my hair appointment with my sister and spent the next 3-4 hours sitting down to perm and ruin my hair. The things I'd do for a change....
Feb 5: Went out for breakfast with the folks and then went to OU to shop. Bought ridiculously little things and then went home. Met up with Ainul and Sara for dinner (I think). We went to... Hartamas Square. Yah, I remember this. Just not sure which day exactly. Oh well.
Feb 6: CNY eve! I have no idea what I did. Probably stayed home and ate dinner. Went to get pants with brother. Realised haven't really spent time with him in ages. *Edit: Went to run errands, paid for visa. Sigh, how come so boring one?
Feb 7: First day of CNY! I also don't remember what we did. Got angpows!
*Gosh memory failing!!!*
Feb 8 : Hung out at home and then went out for dinner with pookie. It's been a while. Went for Sundanese food in KLCC and stopped by Sky Bar in Traders Hotel. It was pretty nice. Some friends stopped by the place after that and we had some mamak. Saw Joon, Sam and LG.
Feb 9 : Met up with long lost Wei Liang! We had the most ridiculously priced hawker food in The Gardens. Midvalley is so difficult to recognize now. Haven't seen him for...as long as I've left for US. Btw, I found the card that he gave me right before I left. The dollar bills have long been stolen, but card still around. A dollar (ringgit) for every bad movie we saw together.
Feb 10: Went to uncle's place and listened to the folks chat while watching the Banquet, I think. Then went for dinner at Secret Recipe with Jay, Sara and Ninie. I have videos and photos on my phone as proof!
Feb 12: Had to wake up really early to go change my visa status at the embassy. Surprisingly done really quickly. Met up with KM, went to some place in OU for a while. Got him to buy cookies! (ok, inside joke). Was chatting with sis later that night,then fell asleep like in 2 seconds after last sentence. Getting old....
Feb 13: Went to Sungei Wang to see and maybe shop for some la la clothes (:p) and met up with the monkey. Came home to have dinner.
Feb 14: Went to OU to walk walk and then picked up visa. Watched Kung Fu Dunk at that place in the Curve. It was pretty amusing, but of no value. How come CNY movies this year got no CNY feel one ha? Came home for dinner and ran out to meet the girls real quick at Carl's Jr. Then came home for pai tin kung. I like some old traditions.
Feb 15: Went out with mum and pa, lazed around for afternoon. Brought cat to the vet with sis. Sasha's claw was growing into her paw, ouch. Uncle and family stopped by. Didn't know that one of my cousins is married. With a baby! So excited. Went to Atrium late at night. Gosh, it was so...not nice. The company was nice but the crowd left a lot to be desired. Or maybe I'm getting old.
Feb 16: Went for lunch with Winnie and Joshy....in the Jap place where the servers dressed up as ninjas. It seemed like they were throwing us out before we were finished cause they were closing. Crap. Then went for a drink somemore to catch up more! It's always fun to chat and bitch with them. Went out with KM and played mahjong! There were so many zha wu's that you can't believe. How can someone have zha wu with four feis?? Hahahaha....was suppose to meet Fiong later that night. Unfortunately, some things happened along the way and had to sort of ffk her. I feel really bad. Sorry Fiong!
Feb 17: Mum,pa,sis and I went to watch CJ7. It could have been better but I did laugh a lot. What can I say, I'm easily amused. Also visited the pasar malam but only for a short while cause it was raining. Bah. Cousin sisters and mum stopped by for dinner that night. My last night. Sigh. All the girls stopped by before I left for the airport too. I'm glad, happy and...I love you girls! Left for airport and had to fly back to Chicago :(
My god, I left out so many things. Meant to write bout all I've ate, but some people may attempt to murder me. For now, this is all I've got. Will be edited. If I remember. And if I have time. Gosh, my writing skill is so crap. Need to write longer and more coherent sentences. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I write what I think And I think with loads of punctuations. Bah.
