By staring into the photo. It gives me rather some kind of peace. A christmasy peace. Although I didn't join anyone for any events today but I still felt warmth and coziness while sat back watching through the film of 2007. My stories. Some are memorable and some are horrible. Well, Life's like that. Goes up and down whether you want it or not. We can't force it a'ite, mate? I just wish to store them in a snow globe while able to watch them playback like some DVD? Silly!

Staring back the photo, reminds me of flakes. It's been years now. I still remember I did it for the sake of fun! I actually opened the door, stayed in the front yard for about 2-3 minutes then head back inside. Silly but yeah it was kinda fun! I mean the temperature. It was warm in the house and freezing outside! But yeah, it was really cold! It's unlike sitting in an air-conditioned room. There you'll feel the fresh air while the cold air breezes through. Gee I wonder how is it now? Has global warming affected everything to be more different than back then?

Went to google up some paintings. I come across this piece! Okay, I have to admit that everything does connect! I think I'm looking for peace and quiet. Maybe. I think I just want to get out from this hectic place for some moment. Maybe.

I actually come to a second with thoughts of traveling just me n my wild best friend. Audrey. Yeah, we did talked about everything including how to get there and stuff on the phone. I find it impossible to come true. You know why? Due to our timezone differences.

It's not that she's away or something, just that we both have different time schedules and sometimes its hard to actually find a perfect time slot to do 'our thing'. Anyhow, that's my year end wish. I think it's easy to do it but hard to find time for it. It's very easy indeed! Right?


Wow, I'm actually that low demanding eh? ^^ Didn't expect that coming. It's 4a.m in the morning (thought of Gwen Stefani) now. It's been a Christmasy for a start. Quite.

Tuesday

Today's date

4a.m

Present Time

Everything 2007 comes to and end. A whole new beginning coming soon. Before it ends, I think I should end those which are suppose to be laid back in year 2007 instead bringing to the new 2008?

Readers, I thank you for supporting me throughout year 2007. Although I did plan on at least earn something from blogging by placing advertlets (advertisement). But in another view, at least I learned the joy of blogging. The joy of telling stories while sharing it. The joy of bringing someone to the 'Live' location. The joy to open reader's eyes.

I wish you all Merry Christmas, Enjoy ya holidays!

'Don't spoil it! Enjoy the fullest for 2007!' quote Jkee.

The day has finally come! It's here! All I've been waiting throughout the whole holiday season. A day out for movie. Finally! So long didn't go out for movies with them.
The night before we had our largest gathering of all times. It's at Old Town, Kosas. It consist on most of the SC1 and SC2/Sk students(chinese)...How I miss those days where there is unity among us although some are smarty pants, some are idiotic and some are nerdy...you see most in different groups and I'm in the wild group! We get our satisfaction to head home when it's already 2 in the morning.

The next day, I'm having a hard time waking up. Hearing Jack Sparrow doing stupid things while Will Turner impatiently running around battling pirates. It's way beyond my movie imagination and all of these caused by the alarm. (It's Prates Carribean ringtone) Worst, it's not an alarm, it's a phone call! Thank god I realise it! or else back to dream land.(Bolehland!!) It's Audrey. She was in deep tone trying to be like the hotel morning call. At the end, I destroyed her plan on being 'you know, kind polite sweet tone'.

Woke up, got prepared and wait for her to come. She came and she announced a bad news! She said we are going to wait for the delay. Everyone isn't up yet and delayed to 12. I insisted on heading there early to get good seats. Yep, I eventually manage to motivate them. Unfortunately the good seats are all Gone! Gone! Gone~ (Cry me a river~) All it was left 3 rows of FRONT row seats. Desperations! You can't stop 'em. Conclusion, we bought them.

Meet up with Roman and we headed to Pastamania. Sorry didn't took the actual picture instead. Well I forgotten to bring batteries that was left in the charger. But atleast you get to check out the 'Drop of cream' off the fork.

After having our lunch, we head on to parkson. Jacqueline wanted to get some stuff in there. Quote Roman, 'Auntie place'. 'Suits them' Quote Jon.

Well, obviously there are too many mirrors in the cosmetic department. Can't resist to snap one! There! Caught one mirror! In a photo!

Well, Suspecting whether the bear would move. I Saw it moving ok? You HAVE GOTTA BELIEVE ME! ok, just lying.

Aww! So sweet! Okay! Listen! Bunny Jr! I'm just hugging him! You've even slept with me! so no hard feelings!

Yep, everyone loves the bear. Look at Audrey! She totally forgotten about you! Look at her!
Even Roman Too!

I gotta agree that this is a nice picture!

This too!

Child abuse! Help!

He really is an abuser! Totally!

With me racing with the timer. Exhales

C'mon! 10 seconds already! Still deciding...sigh

Totally Wild! Proves us right!
Vogue quote Roman

Me Vog-ing
Yep, That's the end of the day. I think I should declare myself the official paparazi!

It's Out! It's Out!

Results is out! After all the moments of worries and starving due to depression (just kidding), the result is finally PUBLISHED! Yep! Pamie is the first to notice among all of us. She rang me up and urge me to check it. At the end, she checked it for me instead. The moments I have been waiting for it's finally here. For all I have done for the whole semester and here comes rewarding time! About the next statement, you can actually interview Pamelyn about it. I was screaming and yelling on the phone yet don't want her to announce. I must be 'siao' quote singaporeans. I know I am! Thank god I didn't give any high expectations on it or any high hopes. Thank god I can accept the results or else I would ended up in mental hospital known for Malaysian as Tanjung Rambutan. I know! Anyways, I'm not very satisfied with the Introduction Design. I wish I had done better. I bet I lose marks on the model 'coz' I think they judge it by description and how we connect each other. I know I was making circles and round shapes as the description flows. (meaning I think I have no idea what was I describing) Haha Sillyness. Anyways, I'm still alright with the outcome.

FINALLY!!

Finally! The day has come! All our hard work for the half of the year 2007 has finally paid off! December 1st! Launching day! Woke up around 6a.m on bed thinking to rush to Hilton but upon receiving a sms from Ms. Shereen as below

"LISTEN ALL N LISTEN VRY CAREFULY.DO NOT,I REPEAT PLZ DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING.DON'T MOVE ANYTHING,NO MORE TOUCHING UP THE TRAIN. STAY AT LEAST 1M AWAY FRM D DISPLAY.WEN U PEEPS R AT HOME SLEEPING, WE R STIL AT HILTON FINALISIN D TRACK SYSTEM.THE TRAINS R RUNNING IN ORDER NW SO I SWEAR 2 GOD,IF ANY OF U MESS THIS UP,I M GOIN 2 KILL U! IT IS NOT FUNNY NOR CUTE 2 THINK OF THIS AS A JOKE. GOOD LUCK! TQ"

I smiled and outburst a big laugh shouting 'SO CUTE!'. Since it's like that meaning there isn't any chance for me to go there to touch our stuff. I sms-ed Cheryl to see what we can do as we haven't done touching up with our landmarks. Should have stayed back the night before but Ms Shereen shoo-ed us home and tell us to come back in the morning to continue. SWEAT!! Called Cheryl up and she say she'll think of a way. Anyways, I continued back to my dreamy dreamland.

By 0705, another sms came in from our beloved lecturer, Ms Shereen.

"BOHEMIAN PEOPLE! NO MORE TOUCHING UP! TQ!"

Okaaay, That is so random! Why am I in her sms list. ^^ But this proved that Cheryl did negotiate with her on the phone!

Woke up at 8a.m and got ready. Rushed to Hilton to see how is everything! Yeah, it was nearly 9a.m which is also launching time. Saw everyone dressed up so fine and it seems that I'm the only red santa with 'south pole' written on the shirt. Aiks.

The Launching Ceremony

Staring at the ceremony makes me feel sad. The whole journey where the seniors and juniors worked together to bring this thing a dream come true and I have been trying to accomplish this since the beginning. From a simple floor plan on a piece of paper to this huge display. I'm touched. ^^


As below are my favorite figurings scattered around 'the world' as known as 'Christmas Across Borders'(Our Concept). Do try to locate them when you pay a visit to PJHilton during December

P.S : It's best to go during the night (before 10) as you could see the work 'fine'-ly and help support my sponsors at the bottom by clicking on them ^^ Thanks!

Paya Serai, PJ Hilton

30th November, the final two days for rushing the Christmas train project. All these while working underground known as the basement car park has soon come to an end. At least we get to breathe some fresh air + air conditioning cooling ventilating system. The worst part is that hotel guest get to see us work our hard @33 off and to rush the deadline. Also not to mention that they can't help coming over bothering us by surveying us. Well it's something to be proud of but still we're on rush hour. Mr Michael the CEO has been supervising us for the whole two days and with his attendance, he would surely treat us buffet dinner in the famously known Paya Serai and he did!

By 8p.m, everyone started moving into the restaurant and we both bloggers (Pamelyn and I) can't help it by bringing cameras in!

The Main Serving Table,
which includes most deserts like Ice Cream, Fruits, Cakes and 'Kuih'.

The Second Serving Table,
which mainly serve seafood like oyster, salmon and etc.

I find the servings are way much better than some hotels I stayed in other states. I think Mutiara Hotel, Penang have the chance to compete(according numbers of hotels I stayed in). By the entrance, There is Chinese servings at the front left corner, Malaysian delicacies on the front right corner. Foreign/International servings like French, Spanish, Italian and India etc servings are served on the back left and right corner depending on the day. Also, each culture servings comes with soup! In the back center there is the Grilled servings. There are multiple choices to choose from and the chef would receive grilling request depending on the chosen option.

There she is! Asking for shots!

My second dish with Chinese seafood soup known as shark fin soup.

After the dinner, we really have the strong will to finish it. Compare to before dinner which most likely to be somewhat dying status. I'm deeply sorry! I should have blog this before but I was really busy with Hilton Christmas Train. Anyways, There you go!

Hey People! I'm back from few weeks of blog-free life. Two weeks exactly but it feels more likely to be few months. Holidays started and I should be catching up with lots of blog posts. I must! Watch out guys! I shall flood the blog!

Been emo-ing for almost a week now. Maybe I just miss my friends. Most of them! I hasn't social much since holidays started. Maybe that explains my emo-ness. I'm still seeking for the real explanation/culprit regarding my emo but for the meantime, the widely known sarcastic, needle spitting, annoying and grand ego Jon aka little boy is back to haunt your life(maybe). and not to forget playful!

Live & Loud 2007

25th November! Was doing work half way received a call stating free tickets for us to Live & Loud! Which cost RM260! Overly excited caused me to rush all my work!

A total of 5 tickets for 4 of us. Obviously there's an extra ticket. I tried calling everyone but none could come. (Dang it! Hey! Still want me to fetch you?? Got ticket for you still want to negotiate conditions...umm not you Shawny) Such disappointment. It's not late to appear though because the concert starts at 1600hrs and ends at 2300hrs.......

Look at the entrance! So packed! They have people checking bags and collecting tickets. After handing in the ticket, I just realise I have a camera with me. Dang! Was hoping they couldn't spot my camera. As they opened my bag and my heart was pounding deeply, they FOUND IT!! How? Okay, it was obvious. They told me cameras are not allowed in the concert ground. They ask me to put it back to the car. I lied. I lied and I don't care. I said Dad went off Long ago. Was waiting friends at the entrance. They insisted no cameras so I told them that my camera got no battery. They really want to double check whether my camera has batteries in it. I showed them and actually there is batteries in it just that I forgot to charge them(Honest). They ask me to give them my batteries, I said it's rechargeable. He let me off with no other choices. As I chuck my camera back in the bag, another security saw it. He stop me! Dang! I walk off instead with the feeling of so fed up. He brought an authority to make a decision. I can't believe it! At the end, they let me off Again. Can't believe it! Really can't!

The distance to the stage area was far! It was a very big field and the stage arena is half of it. It's too big and it's tiring to walk all the way there. Found a spot for us and some unknown china singer was performing I think? She's not bad either. Too bad I don't know who is she.

I thought about moving to the front row as the place we were standing at is too far(not that far). We excuse our way to the front and yeah. It was Andrew Tan's turn to perform. Everyone was screaming and yelling! The crowd isn't that bad either. He danced and sing all the way till the end of His TURN.

After Andrew, came some singer who is famous and I don't know who is he. He's Vincent and the crowd knows his songs. swt = =|| He sang about 4 songs and came along Jerry!

Jerry (local) isn't that bad looking compare to our dearest local artist Vincent, quote someone.

They sang 'Ilham'! Total rocked the crowd! Then followed by famous Chinese duets. Very impressive that they really controlled the crowd well.

There! They sang Can't Keep My Eyes Off You! It was soooo fast till you got really high while singing with them.

**Warning!!**

Remember his Darn Face!!! Never please him during concerts!! He turned to me and said it in a very aggressive manner 'Could you move back abit, I need some SPACE'. I gave him a stare. and didn't move. Later, Sam told me that he got scolded by someone from the front as he tried to do the same. I was offended in a way and I kept saying out loud, Whats the point of coming to a concert IF YOU NEED SPACE??!? haha

**End of Warning!!**

Unfortunately, they have to leave because there are alot more artist at the backstage waiting to perform. This guy here is new to the entertainment media career. His Thor Luk. He won the Hong Kong Talented contest and he apologised at the beginning because he still do not have his own songs yet also this is his first time performing on stage other than the concert. The idiotic guy's friends was complaining about Thor Luk singing other artist's songs. Dang it! Who would care as long as he's good? Felt like slapping them! Thor Luk performed 6 songs and most of them are famous ones.

Surprisingly after Thor Luk is Kenny Kwan! I didn't know that he's coming. I still like Boyz instead than him himself because Boyz's songs are better! Too bad they disbanded.

Soon, received an sms from Pamie stating she's leaving the house. 'Leaving' which means she's doing it. She is Leaving the house. I left the place and went to the entrance asap as Pam's place isn't that far to the concert venue. After arriving at the entrance, she said she's still at home. I sat there and waited for her for some time and soon she arrived. I hopped on her car to help her look for parking spaces. Sam called me to inform about next singer is up and he's Guang Liang!! I rushed Pamie! Both of us was shouting and screaming in the car and was hoping we spot car park in the next minute. We did and we ran to the entrance and the concert arena! On the way, he was singing his new songs and after that he sang 'Tong Hua' (Fairytale). Both of us ran back to our standing spot which is the front row and blend into the crowd.

After got my camera back from sis, I still manage to capture him singing 'Fairytale'

I love the lights! It was soooo beautiful and heartwarming as it blends with the song. Pamie reminds me of our 11th lecture. Lights.

He then sang 'Bu Hui Fen Li'(Won't Separate). Seriously everyone was following!

I can't accept the fact that Guang Liang went off so early and next is Claire Kuo. Sorry about the details. She's from Tw not Hk. No one knows her songs so which is something like 'potong steam'.

This proves that I'm obsessed with the lights. Darn it! Really love it. It's sooo finely done.

I lowered the shutter speed to capture them perfectly.

Look! I hooked someone from the concert. Her name is Samantha! Yeah! She's my type. Can you believe it? Neh she's my cousin. She's the terrific cousin who supplied my the free ticket.

There is Pam! The running made us sweat like we just had our shower! But still we had fun! The M-C mentioned the next singer who is going to perform next and THE WHOLE CROWD was SCREAMING!
I seriously never heard of him and don't know who is he. His name is Zhang Zhen Yue. I'm very surprised that I know how to sing his songs. Really! He TOTALLY ROCKED THE CROWD! Everyone knows his songs and I find the lyrics darn nice! For the first time I listen to lyrics. ^^

He sang 4 songs and ended it with 'Zhai Jian' (Goodbye) Really darn High! Very very High!

She's Ma something. Forgotten her name. She sang her EP and left. Ping Guan asked her to perform on stage for experience as she's new into this kinda thing. A new singer to be precise.

Ping Guan came up and sang a few songs from his new Album which consist most of the oldies hit songs. He first sang Seasons in the sun and I bet there wouldn't be problem with the crowd anyway.

Top of the world by The Carpenters and the crowd still knows how to sing and a chinese song (I don't know).

Suddenly he invited Fish Leong out! They sang Way Back Into Love and Pamie is jumping up and down yelling 'HEy! It's Music and Lyrics!!'

Both of their voice suits the song anyways. Atleast they sang some widely known songs. I was shocked with her current situation. She's soooo skinny! I like the old her better.

Ping Guan left and Fish Leong had her time of her own. She sang Yong Qi! It's a classic of hers! I was singing out loud! Totally into it! Darn High! Very very High!

She then sang 'Chong Bai', her new song which isn't bad after all. Then 'Ning Xia'. She requested all of us to wave the cellphones and by looking into the concert LCD screen, It was a nice scenary!

One of the moments I captured.

After having so High moment, she just said Ok Byebye? swt... As she left, I saw some girls moving around. Saw a short skirt girl which is different from others. I thought she's a dancer.

As the lights went brighter, It's A*Mei!!!

She looked good in short hair! Cute! and She rocked the crowd too!

Everyone was jumping up and down!! Singing outloud!

Yeah, As I said, everyone was jumping up and down and waving their hands. I was just standing there snapping photos and wouldn't want to waste the chance. She spotted me and was pointing at me. I snapped it! and still snapping photos.

Some chats and 2 slow songs. One of them is 'Wo Yao Kuai Le' (I want to be happy). It was famous!

Hands waving as she requested!

At the end, she sang 'Summer'. New song. She ask us to sing together when she sings 'Xiang Qi Ni Lai' part and we sing ' oooooOOO oooooOOO' hahaha so Fun! Pamie loves her and she's soooo excited! At the end, She sang Bad Boy and 3 days 3 nights. So cool! We're Running and yelling to the exit. Afraid the Jam will occur when leaving.

Conclusion, I was sooooo High!
