Big Girls Don't Cry

It's a very hard day for me today.

People has to learn from the hardest way.

I learnt a lot today.

I just realized that I am still SO NOT used to my Malaysia life, after two weeks. What's wrong with me? Maybe I have been overestimating myself all the while. I think I am.

Or maybe I should forget my lovely Ames and the dream land of America, live my life and move on.

I'll burst out crying if anyone were to pamper me a lil right now.

Ship will be straight once it reaches the bridge LOL

It has been raining these few days.

I have been pretty occupied lately, in readying myself to work and getting know more of my colleagues. I know I'm always bad in making decision, big or small.

But since I have decided to work in Kuala Lumpur (instead of Singapore) and with this company, I really hope I will get some support from people around me, and not just questioning my decision. I won't be earning big bucks now, but c'mon, give me some time! At least let me have a taste of working environment first, I am too tired to just live in my own imagination and picture myself in suit and heels to work. There's always solutions if problems arise afterwards.

All I need is support! I need support to generate courage so that I can walk into my office proudly, confidently introduce myself to everyone else.

I live my life; I fall and I should get up

Blissful

How blissful of me to see him in just a week time apart, instead of my previous thought of a month time.

How blissful of me to have our first meal in Malaysia together, at Tesco foodcourt, experiencing the very malaysian way of dinner.

How blissful of me to enjoy in his loves and hugs once again, so soon.

I'm easily satisfied. I have everything I want.

Life is perfect!

New Updates

It's my fifth day in Malaysia. How fast!!! I still remember those days that I was counting down till the day home.

It's my fifth day. I basically drive everyday to improve my driving skill. It's getting better, but not up to the standard yet. :)...

After 5 days in Malaysia, I have come to realize a few things:

1) Motorbikers, truck drivers, and bus drivers are people that I should avoid whenever they're on the road.

2) Hot weather does make people hot temper. I'm not in very good manner whenever the heat overwhelms me.

3) Food is really good here.

4) Everything is VERY expensive here. I was shopping with my mom today, and we bought some cosmetics, just a few drugstore cosmetics, and here goes my RM200++.

5) No sugar in the sundry shop. Yes, they said sundry shop. Haha...

6) My friends in Ames never lie. The internet connection here is SLOW. I have broadband now, and I can never sign in MSN. *Sigh*

7) People here are not as nice and friendly as people in Ames. They look at you a lot, from head to toe.

8) The guy who works in the eye center doesn't know how a Gucci logo looks like, and he is selling me a Prada glasses.

9) It's not easy to own a car when you're earning Ringgit.

10) I am very thankful to god that I came home. The old folks at home now are so fragile. I am spending fruitful time with them whenever they're with me.

So, I am getting better. *wink*

'Da Tow' and 'Ke Ai', my precious, are always keeping me busy in the morning. They're lying beside me now when I'm writing this blog. How blissful...

Malaysia

Bitterness in the sweetness;
Sweetness in the bitterness.

This is Malaysia.

I'll survive. All I need is time.

I hope I'm just having sinus, nothing closed to cold, or flu, or swine flu. @_@

Flying

I told you this world is amazing.

How amazing?

When you lose something, you gain something else.
When you're leaving, you're going somewhere else.
When you're moving out, people move in.
When your friends in Ames are sad bidding good bye to you, your friends and family in Malaysia are excited to welcome you home.

This world is amazing I told you.

I am sad and happy. I am amazing too!


*My last hot pot dinner in Ames, with my amazing friends*


*Leaving on a jet plane, I'll be back, people!!*

I Am Nervous

Tomorrow is the last day in Ames. I was readying myself to go home since the second I knew I am going home. But, I still have endless things to do till today. I do not understand. People said 'you'll only appreciate when you know you're going to lose something'. That's exactly how I feel now. 24 hours are not enough for me to clean my home, to finish up my packing, to meet people that I supposed to see, to have dinner with people that want to bid good bye to me, and to enjoy the last second of Ames. No, it's not enough. I'm scared. I am scared that if I missed out somebody, I might not be seeing him/her anymore for the rest of my life. I am very much afraid of regretting for my life. I don't want to regret. Every time when I realize that this might be the last time to see this person, my heart sinks deeper. I don't know how deep my heart will be after tomorrow. My friends, live life to the max. I wish each and everyone of you full happiness in life, great success in the future.
Your friend (me!!) might not be the richest person with the most glamorous job in Malaysia, however, she is definitely a happy one, always will be. :)...One cheer to life. All the best!!!!

Big 4

What is 'success' means?

Graduate with 4.0, get a job right after, work for one of the big 4, enjoy the admiration and jealousy from everybody. Is that all?

ALL the accounting or finance or business students are dying to get into big 4, why?

So everybody is looking down on small firms now?

Should one as fresh grad with no stories behind be choosy when given RM1500 or RM2000 monthly salary?

I am confused, quite confused. I need to see, feel, and get a touch on the Malaysia job market now.

What's Next?

So, the greatest news of today is, the car is sold! *relieved*

People will come and move all the furniture, TV, and stuffs tomorrow. Things are getting cleared faster than I thought. However, I am totally exhausted from all the selling, buying, and packing fun. Yes, I am tired.

I was thinking, life is really amazing. You'll never know what's in front. So, when you missed some good stuffs, it's OK, because the better or the best one is yet to come. Everything leads to something. Try not to be doubtful with any decisions you have made, as there are no one good/ bad or right/wrong decision. It's the stories that every decision created that make life beautiful. I do believe so.

So, the worst news of today is, I just found out that my Malaysia driving license expired half a year ago. What should I do?

Sunday 3-in-1 Meal

Today is funny, because I had my long forgotten 3-in-1 meal practice again. The last time I did that was when I was in Inti, before the Mr. 11's era. That was horrible! I was eating lesser than a kid just to keep myself thin. I still remember that I kept myself empty stomach for the day and went to the tom yam store at night for dinner- my favorite tom yam with lotsa chili padi, ended up diarrhea in the hostel every single time. BUT, all these BAD practices did not give skinny body.

So, I woke up 11.30am today and went to the gym. I came home after an hour. Thinking of what to eat took forever. I had my so called 'bruncher' (breakfast+lunch+dinner) around 3pm. A buffet bruncher. That keeps me full for the rest of the night, although I was doing quite a lot of packing. :)...

9 more days!!

*HAPPY 41-MONTH ANNIVERSARY TO ED&KEL*

The last anniversary of ours in Ames.
The last summer of ours in Ames.
No more snow for us.
My hamster babies have gone to new home.
My last weekend in Ames is coming very SOON...
I do Not want to forget everything here.
I won't!
