Ho ho ho no more :)! How did you spend Christmas? Did you have fun? Well, I did and it was one memorable one. 3 different Christmas in a week with all the same great people who I grew up with lol. Christmas ended 5 days ago and here I am sitting on my orange office chair from Ikea right in front the computer listening to my list of songs on Windows Media Player to start my story on " How I spend my Christmas '09 ". I sound like some old grandma'ma telling bedtime stories to their little ones lol. Anyways, here's how lol.

A three storeys high building somewhere around the Bangsar area we call TGIF ( Thank God Is Friday ) was where we celebrate our Christmas eve dinner at with a group of family friends. My dad's friend, Redi Mike got transferred from becoming a manager at the Subang TGIF ( Our original party gathering place ) to the Bangsar one. He's a great and funny guy!

Went up to Genting the next day to have our gift exchange session, went running, played sports and etc etc. Went up to the theme park the next day with EVERYONE and it was one of the first time ever we stayed up there for the whole entire day.We should get trophy's for ourselves as a reward cause every time we asked our parents if we could go up to enjoy ourselves, they would always make us go to the arcade and ya da ya da lol. Got to sit most of the rollercoasters they had there and I've never been happier lol. I guess I shall let the pictures do the story telling now. I'm pretty much out of stuff to say for now lol.

That was pretty much the interesting parts that happened during Christmas . The videos are all the way down below.

Met a couple old school friend there and one of them is James Lee Han Jie :) Great to see you again! Watched Sherlock Holmes and we got front row seats. How awesome is that? If only it was a consert than I would already start boasting about it but it's just a seat set place at the front row of the theater and it wasn't fun.

After the movie, we went off for lunch at Carls. Jr :) Spend Chong Lim since he wanted it as his '09 birthday present haha. Btw, you still owe me mine dude. You too, Ae Ren lol. Went home after 2 hours later and spend the entire night online and I went off to bed haha.

p:s//
Don't bother reading this blog if you're not a big fan of
David like I am because it's a long long long way down there :)
.

David James Archuleta
turns Nineteen on
the 28 December.

I could go on the whole day posting up the whole entire album I have with approximately around a thousand plus pictures of David [ I know, that could be a little creepy for some ] and the post would probably be endless but unfortunately I'm in a rush to go somewhere, so I got to do this as quickly as possible.

David started singing at age six, inspired by a Les Miserables video that he had been watching repeatedly everyday since his dad brought it home. He started performing at age 10 when he entered in the Utah Talent Competition singing "I Will Always Love You" and won.


Then at the age of 12, he participate himself on Star Search. David ended up as the Junior Vocal Champion on Star Search 2, losing the Junior Grand Champion title to Tiffany Evans. By competing on Star Search has led to appearances on The Jenny Jones Show and CBS' The Early Show, and meeting Kelly Clarkson from American Idol season one singing "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going".



The year after Star Search he found out he had partial vocal paralysis but declined risky surgery and decided to go for voice therapy as it was almost fully recovered. After a full good recovery, David joined American Idol season 7 in 2007 and sang " Waiting For The World To Change " by John Mayer.




He sang all these amazing songs during American Idol season 7 and ended up becoming a runner up losing the competition to David Cook by 12 million votes [ huge difference ]. Click here to watch the finale :D

Like I said I could go on and on the whole entire day with this but I got to end it right here. I bet 2009 has been one big and great year for him and hopefully I would be able to meet him in person this time :) Last but not least, HAPPY 19th Birthday, David! Have a blessed and joyous/ memorable / great birthday!

I've decided to stop posting about
the Japan trip due to a couple of personal reason.
If you wanna see them pictures, visit my Facebook profile
:).

Hi. I've been really busy like a busy busy bee for these couple of days going out with my family for some last minute Christmas shopping lol. If you follow me on Twitter then I guess you should probably already know :). I can't wait for Christmas day! Will be spending it in Genting with family and friends like we do every year so I'm kinda stoked for that to happen since it only happens once a year. On the darker side, school is reopening soon haha! There's a part of me going " YES! Schools reopening" and the other part is going " Awww man! School! Oh nooo. SPM :( " and not forgetting, PMR results are coming out tomorrow, so good luck FORM 3's especially my E twin, ERIN LOW and my dearest friend, ANDREA CHAN :).

Alvin And The Chipmunks 2 is coming out tomorrow! I was hoping to catch it tomorrow but the tickets were all sold out plus I had to attend a Christmas dinner. Maybe next time, I hope. * keeping fingers crossed * I can't wait for all the 2010 to be out in cinemas especially Valentine's Day staring all these amazing actor and actress ;

; Jessica Alba.
; Jessica Biel.
; Bradley Cooper.
; Patrick Dempsey.
; Jamie Foxx.
; Jennifer Garner.
; Anne Hathaway.
; Ashton Kutcher.
; Julia Roberts.

To be honest, I really thought that Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift were the actual main stars of the movie but man was I wrong after I watched the trailer. Their names weren't even at the credits section and they are both kinda one of the biggest stars. Agree with me? Haven't seen it? Click on the bold Valentines Day and it will lead you to it's page haha :). Anyways, it will be out on Valentines Day itself next year, so I'm hoping to catch that and Bandslam as well :) [ That's the official movie that I manage to find on YouTube tho the quality is pretty bearable ]. So many ahmazing movies but so little time lol.

Two weeks ago I had two monkeys over at my place to bake cupcakes named Hui Mi and LeighAndra :). Tho is was my first time baking anything without my mum's help so I'm kinda proud of us three because the cupcakes was a success plus we didn't ruin, screw or burn anything down. Everyone in my family and Teri's liked it, even Hui Mi's mom wanted the recipe for it lol. See how great our cupcakes were lol? Ok, I think I should better stop bragging about it haha. We should do this more often probably after SPM haha. Here's a joke to fill in the gloom in your day : Before my parents left the house to run errands, my parents were supportive enough as trusted me without any doubts and told me this, " If anything happens, use this * points at the fire extinguisher * okay? ".

* Teri.

* Lemon cupcakes.

* Hui Mi.

* Hui Mi " I know you don't have pictures of me ".
[ You're so wrong lol ].

* Baked and fresh from the oven.

* Teri the drummer :).

* Guess who's who's lol.


Thank you Teri for helping me download Photoshop :) After 15 minutes of downloading, this is what happend to my picture. Done by themmm lol. Thanks ah you guys haha!

* Teri's.

* Hui Mi's.

Then a couple of days later, we had a early early Christmas lunch with family friends at Oriental Banquet around the PJ area. It's a ALL YOU CAN EAT Chinese buffet restaurant that serves from ( I forgot the time) to 2:30 at RM36 per person and every 6 person, one free lol? The food isn't half bad I would say cause as far as I can remember they got like free shark fin soup, peaking duck and all those other expensive food that you're dying to try but you wouldn't want to spend your money on haha. Note to the Manager of Oriental Banquet, if you're reading this you should pay me cause I'm helping promote your restaurant haha. Oh, I doubt that would happen lol.

After lunch, everyone came over my place so that the ladies can have their " mahjong " session like every house gathering lol. Instead of staying home, we decided to head out and catch a movie. Ninja Assassin and Princess And The Frog didn't work out cause it was selling out really fast and besides those two, there were no other movies so instead we chose Storm Warrior lol. To be honest, I thought that movie really sucked lol. It wasn't because it's in Cantonese and I don't understand but sincerely, it sucked lol. RM 10 per ticket isn't worth your money lol. I forgot to mention, we went Tropicana City for the movie and there was a huge stitch figure placed outside, so I just had to take a picture of it cause I love Stitch :).

* Above: Stitch.
Below: Pek He, Darren, Elicia, Jay Lyn and Le Anne.

Continued watching movies when we got back to my place. Final Destination 2 and 3 :). Ew gross lol. I was pretty paranoid about my surroundings for a while after watching that movie for the first time but then I got over it two days ago lol. I've got a couple more of things that I'd like to share with you guys but unfortunately I got to end this blog here cause there's still a few more unfinished chores I got to do to help my mom out for tonight lol. So till tomorrow's blog, I'm signing off and wishing you a Merry Christmas!

Heyy! Today may just be the 12 of December and another ordinary yet boring day for the most of us but except for someone special who just turned a year older. She is everyone favorite and sweetest person to be with. I don't personally know her in person, but I can say that she has gone through a lot of ups and downs in life from her songs that she has been writing at the age of 12 and singing at the age of 3. Amazing? I know. That amazing/ talented girl has written songs like Love Story, Fifteen, I'd Lie, Tear Drops On My Guitar and many more to name from. Yeap, you guessed it, it's Taylor Swift who just turned twenty today. We love her don't we?

Happy 20th Birthday
Miss Taylor Swift
/
Taylor " Lautner".


* It's pretty much my favorite animal.

* Beach hair is glamorous. Lake hair is not.

* Look who figured out how to make pictures orange....

* My junior high excuse to not participate in push-ups. "My arm is double jointed! I can't do it!"

* A joyous picture from the CMT Awards rehearsals.

* Before : ( At Keith Urban's concert ).

* The fans outside my hotel made me a Fundon shirt, simply reinforcing why I call it that.

* Today is a celebration, because from now on when I make a bad joke and someone rolls their eyes.. I get to say "You know.... some people think I'm entertaining."


p;s// Those pictures are from her Twitpic :) If you were wondering lol. Going to end this awesome post with, WE LOVE YOU TAYLOR! Good bye!

Hi. Oh, how I love today's weather. Cool, windy and just the right temperature for me to get a new blog up and running lol. Did anyone realize how fast the week has just by? Woah is the right word I would say. It still feels like it's just the beginning of holidays and when I took once glance at the calender on my study table, I had to double check twice to see if I was looking at the wrong day, date and month. Pssh! Honestly, I'm still in shock with how fast it has just went by and the best part is, I haven't been doing anything productive during the holidays which I actually planned to when finals ended since next years war for us FORM 3 and 5's :(. BUMMER!

Christmas starts next week! That a good sign :). I haven't gone Christmas shopping cause as far as I know, there's not gift exchanging between the normal group of people that we use to gift exchange every year or have any plans for Christmas yet. So I guess Christmas year is pretty much just like an ordinary day like every other day for me. Bah!

I totally went off topic cause I actually planned to have this post only based on the second day of the trip but then I went rambling on about other stuff until someone from messenger that they couldn't wait for the next blog on my trip, sorry. So here's the blog that YOU request for lol.

DayTwo (2).
Waking up at 5:45 in the morning (Japan's time) after knowing it's 4:45 in the morning (Malaysians time was no fun at all on our second day being there.Through my opinion, I would say the second day being there was pretty relaxed cause we got the whole day to ourselves in Tokyo Disneyland, which was really great excluding the part where it was fully packed with 95%, Japanese/ school kids people and the other 5%, tourist lol. No no no no, no no NO, It wasn't a school holiday or even a public holiday for them haha. Yeah, everything was just like I thought it would be haha. After our breakfast at the hotel restaurant, everyone had to check-out, get their luggage's and get going on the bus then a 45 minutes drive to Tokyo Disneyland.

* Breakfast. ( Look at how bright is it when it's only 7:30 in the morning).

* On the way inside.

* Tokyo Disneyland parking ticket entrance.

* My mom insist of getting a family shot.

* Micro Adventure was our first ride when we got there.

* The guy in the movie " Honey, I shrunk the kids ". Ring a bell?

* Time machine :).

* I think I must have forgot to mention that it's a 3-D ride.

* Look at the crowd getting ready for the parade when it's only going to start in 4 hours?

* Ze' Palace.

* Our second ride called " It's a small world".

* A slow 15 minutes boat ride which takes you to see like the pictures shown below.

* Cute? That was just 1/4 part of the ride.

* Don't ask why was I wearing that lol. And no, I didn't get it :).


After the It's A Small World ride, we were told that it's was our free and easy time so we could go anywhere we want to but be back at the bus by 4:30 in the afternoon or you'd be left behind lol. Next, we went for the Pinocchio's Adventure ride which was just opposite on where we were standing so without hesitation and waisting time, we went for the ride and yes, I didn't enjoy it because it was all dark, weird, and spinning really fast and in Japanese. So that pretty much explains why huh? The ride was a summarize story from the show based on how he was first a wood puppet and how he transform into a real boy.

* A little sneak peak on what was inside that ride lol.

* Tom Sawyer's ride.

* The background somehow reminds me of the show Lion King lol.

* They say the "Turkey drumstick was the best food there" but Elicia says " No, I didn't enjoy it?" Dad wanted a picture :).

* Look how huge are they?

* The Haunted Mansion.
(similar ride with Pinocchio's Adventure).

* Our rides.

* Spooky? No? Well, I got freaked out a little when some of it pops out of no where lol.
But it was fun and somehow worth it.
* Daisy.
( I couldn't get a picture with it cause everyone was crowding around her till she has to leave).

* Donald Duck.

* Goofy's place.

* Donald's place.


* Norman (cousin brother), Darren, Elicia.

* My annoying brother, Darren Chin.
Poser!

* Spot the hidden Mickey :D.

* People getting a perfect spot to watch the parade and it started without any delays lol.

* If you ask me to judge who has got the best float, I would so vote Stitch's.

* End.

After the 30 minutes parade, rain droplets started to fall which kinda ruin the day in some way tho. Went in a building for shelter close to the exit lol. What a way to end the say huh lol?

* A far view of the castle.

* Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse.

* A band playing a number of Christmas songs. They are good!

* Mickey Mouse cupcake.

* The green eye monster, Mike Wazowski from Monster Inc.

* Nightmare Before Christmas.

* BOONES.

* This is how the sky looks when it's 5:00 and the drizzling has already stopped lol.

After Disneyland, we had to leave for our next hotel which was in the city area for about an 1 hour drive. On the way, we stop by for dinner at a chinese restaurant. Give a rate of 7/10 for the food. After checking in the hotel, we head out to explore the area nearby and see how the city looks like and everything. I know, sounds soo ulu and jakun right but but it's Japan lol.

* Went in the Pharmacy to get myself gum which worth RM24 for 350 gums. Kinda worth it right lol? Last me for the whole trip even after offering everyone after meals.

* I couldn't help myself not taking a picture of this. Well, you got to admit that their mask there kinda look like bra's right lol? Funny!

* My mom <3 onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_8w0PqeNAQ5Y/SyOUJ6hvnDI/AAAAAAAADJg/51wR404Gi5s/s1600-h/IMG_0341.JPG">* The annoying brother.


After walking, we decided to grab a bite at the picture below cause people said it taste different than the original and I kinda agree :). Slightly nicer than the original and a different menu.

* Figure out where is that place yet?
No? Then look at the picture below.










* The only eatery place that my dad trust whenever we are out of the country lol.

* Second hotel for the night.
Hotel Metropolitan.


Had my McDonald's take away and I got to enjoy it in the hotel room lol. You don't see Bacon Lettuce Burger on our menu don't you? Okay, maybe just maybe they might now but I didn't know that cause I haven't been entering or buying McD's for the past few months until I went Japan. So anyways, we found Ukata's on our bed and before we reached our hotel, our tour guide had already told us that we could wear them and go to sleep with it and etc etc, so we camwhored with it :) Bhahahaa.

* Family picture.

* I can't remember what's up with this picture lol.

* Yours truly.

Ah yes, I'm finally done with Day Two lol. It took me approximately 2 hours to get it done with all the pictures and typing and everything. I think I wanna go get some rest now since I've been on the comp the whole day. Day Three coming up soon! Be ready for another long post full with weird and ugly pictures of your truly haha. I'm kidding! So goodbye and come back soon to read more! Not forgetting to comment them on my chat box. I always find my chat box empty, so I need you to fill them up. So be my guest to. 100% bye for now.

p;s// Sorry if there's any typing error, anything that doesn't make any sense and some of them that you just have no clue of after it over again for like a billion times cause I'm kinda rushing for time and I got to be somewhere soon.

Konichiwa everyone! I'm now safe back home and feeling great after the 9 hour flight ( including transit in Hong Kong) and only getting 8 hours of sleep lol. If you ask me, how was the trip to Japan, I would probably give you a one word answer which is GREAT haha. Everyone there are just really nice, pretty, honest, well dressed, well you name it. It's just a really great place to be in. So if you're planning to go there in the future, without any doubts, go ahead :). I'm already missing Japan :\ If you follow me on Twitter, you guys should already know how many pictures I got to upload on Blogger/ Facebook to do the show and tell story. So bare with me if I don't update faster than you thought I would haha.

DayOne (1).
My uncle was our transporter to KLIA since my cousin brother was following us, so he decided to give us a ride in a way of saying thank you for bringing my son along lol. Grandma stay over at my place as she wanted to have her alone time watching Cantonese movies all day long like my mum does occasionally when she has a new cd lol. After 30 mintues, mom got a call from her.

mummy. grandma ( in Cantonese. )
" how to use the Astro remote? Why got no numbers? How to know what channel is what channel ah?"

" oh oh.. um, the numbers on the remote exactly the same like your hand phone. Same place."

" hah? "

Funny!!! We ended up making a detour to help her out before she goes crazy trying to figure out which button is which lol. By helping, I did this ;

* Numbers.

Here comes the bullet points to make everything seem more neat, less complicated and summarized lol.
;Left to the airport.
; Check- in.
; Breakfast at Burger King.

* Dad, Mom, Norman, Darren, Elicia.

; Walk around the airport to past time.
; Board the plane to Hong Kong.

* Darren Chin.

* Was watching Gossip Girl season 2 on board.

* Breakfast on plane. You don't get that everyday don't you lol?

; After a good 3 hours and 15 minutes we had a transit in Hong Kong for about 2 hours.

* At some cafe in the Hong Kong airport.

; Board the plane to Japan.

*Lunch.

; Touch down after another 3 hours plus.

* Translation below.

* It says " Welcome To Japan". HAHAHA!

* While waiting for the tour people to get out from the washroom lol.

* " Take a picture of me cause I look cool".

Got there at 8:30 (Malaysian time) and 9:30 ( Japan time). One hour difference! Awesome! Checked in the hotel right away, then went out to the nearby convenient shop to grab ourselves dinner since it wasn't provided. Bought 3 bags full of chips and snacks then had noodle in a cup for dinner. Thanks for bringing them, mom :).

* The first hotel that we stayed at.

* I call this the "turn turn" lol. ( Don't ask why).


Yeah, this is pretty much what happen on Day One. Nothing big or special hahaha. I guess I shall stop here right now since I've got nothing more to talk about the first day being there. So I guess I'll continue next time when I either feel bored or free? I don't know so, Bye!

Aloha everyone! How's the holiday week coming? Mines going well as usual lol. Thought my blog needed an update since I've not step foot in here for an awfully long time haha. Have been pretty busy for the past couple weeks with all the running around, packing up and the crazy preparation for the end year holiday that everyone in my family are always looking forward to every year. Good family bonding time :). Will be leaving Malaysia for Japan this weekend which I'm really excited for and will be back with a week in Japan story by next week lol. I promise!

I still can't make up my mind if I should do a video blog of the entire trip or just snap pictures, then post it up like a normal blog already is lol. Which do you think is better? Suggestions please? 2 week ago, I got to spend time with my cousins in Genting ( as usual ). Good to see them again and catch up with what's been going on with them. Ahh I can't wait to see them again on the next family gathering. Hopefully soon but it'd probably be during Chinese New Year hahaha!

Oh, I found out something new from my mom the other day when she went over to a friends place with my aunt. Apparently her friend is now working with some slimming company around the P.J area and she told my mom a simple formula which was on "how much of water are you suppose to drink in a day". Thought of sharing it with you guys :) Kinda effective! I've already been doing it for almost 2 weeks and yeah, kinda lost weight! YES!
  • Actual weight x 100 x 7 = The amount of water you're suppose to drink in a day.
Start calculating lol! Ashley and I were drinking water like there's no tomorrow when I told her during our webcam session yesterday. We both kept going "brb, toilet break" every 5 minutes and then when we get back, we would take in more water again haha. Funny funny! Ashley, remember the song fifteeen part lol? Sorry, kinda got off topic there for a while but here are the pictures.

Genting picture posting now.

* Yvonne Chan.
- the person who I can tell everything and anything to :) She's like my elder sister!

* Darren Chin.
- he wasn't ready because I surprise him with a camera in front of him then snap the picture. But even if he was ready, this would probably be the end product of the picture lol.

* Yvonne Chan, Elicia Chin, Tracy Chan, Krystal Chew.

Okay, I'm going to make long story short! Some of you may already know but some of you may not that I've actually already done a video blog that I promise to and it's on my youtube page. I don't think I would ever post a video blog up here for personal reasons, so please do check my youtube page from time to time because I might be posting another video up anytime soon. So stay tune! Sorry if I ramble too much on this blog. It could be because I haven't blog for a long time already. Got to get back my blogging mojo lol. Will talk to you guys soon and prepare for another long blog :) Bye!
