Heavy-Hearted

Hey all! :) How's your monday evening?

According to the taoism and buddhism religion, the month of august is the month of the 'hungry ghost festival' and is considered the bad luck month of the year.
So all of my beloved ones please do drive carefully and is always adviceable to not stay out till late night. I hope that I didn't sound very superstitious, but recently I have eye-witnessed few accidents right in front of my eyes which stretched my nerves more tight.

and for myself, sigh, I hadn't been feeling good for these few days :(
emotionally depressed & physically ill :(
I have been busy helping my dad in the office and was tired of facing the computer all day, and my eyes got real dry and it feels very uncomfy.

Dated today onwards, I will have approx. 3 more weeks in Malaysia. Well, wow, time passes really fast. okay, I have called it the pre-departure syndrome. I felt myself having all kinds of mix feelings which when it jumbled all up, I felt so sick. urgh.

I have so many on my to-buy and to-do list you see. It got me nervous and stress out, and I seemed to be always very tired by the end of the day. During the past weekend, I spent some time start cleaning and clearing up my room, especially my wardrobe.

I felt like crying when I looked on the amount of clothes that I had owned, it was just about one third of the wardrobe and I felt I seriously had a lot to do. I had to decide which ones were those that I didn't want or to be given away and then after that only able to pick those that I wanted to bring to the UK.

and thinking about packing, most of my friends said "Pack Light!"
Oh, just 2 simple words but was so difficult in action. I never know how to pack light, cos I looked at everything, then I would think I might need this and that, or another of that, ohh maybe this as well and the list go on! *faint* lol

But anyway, I had to do it, like a little by little lor. what to do? lol.

___________________________________________________

Hedgiie fetched me from dad's office today :D
I was very happy for us whenever we got closer with each other.
I had not much of fear flying to Manchester as I know he will be there with me :)

Suprisingly, we have been planning on our schedule, well technically saying was mine orientation & fresher week schedule, so that we could fork out some time for the touring part and take it as a vacation :D I had a real busy schedule, urgh, like everyday, 16 to 24? hmm let's see how things can be worked around ba :)

I am so sorry I might update blog post a little later for this and next month as I am seriously quite fully occupied :( I have to see everyone before I leave, I have to get everything prepared before I depart, I have to eat every delicious dishes before I fly, I have to spend every single moment here happily :)
That's why I need more energy, more strengh, more B+ Complex! lol.

I was not sure anyone reading this could really understand how I actually feel all this while when time is ticking away every second. I am the eldest daughter in family, so I can't be thinking, 'oh well, I am leaving anyway, I don't care, bye!' you see. I had felt responsible being the eldest since young. I felt burdened sometimes that I couldn't just go as my way without consideration. well, that was a long story, don't ask. 

I have to fly alone, becos my parents are not able to get away while my younger sis will be sitting for her upsr almost at the same time when my uni commences. Please take note that this is not a complain, I would just like to share how it feels when you have to do it or try it all alone. I wouldn't take it negatively as it might be a good thing too, right?

I am excited for my new life in a new big city, but also unwilling for all that I have to leave behind.

Well, think it positively right? :)
I have given such an opportunity, to start a second brand new life on my own, sounds good, isn't it? :D

and If it is worth having, I am sure it is worth fighting for :)
Let's hope that it would be a brand new great life ahead for me!

Wish me luck! =D

Oh and I can't wait for tmr's get-a-way trip with my lovely girls to the beach :)
and another packing D: oh c'mon! lol.

Till then. xx


Love,
Sandra.

Lovely Suprise!

Hallo people, afternoon again :)
I am back on blogging today. hees. currently at daddy's office, having super fast connection haha, so I blog blog blog :D

Also, I have to have this belated blog post posted by today :)
I have been waiting for the last piece of art to join the post but it is a little to long to wait for it so I decided to blog first.

As you all know, I am preparing for the UK and hence, there are a lot of gadgets to get ready like my lappie lah, camera lah, phones lah and blah blah blah.. lol

So I have been spending time looking at cameras recently. I was thinking to get a decent one and so that it can last me while I am there and still up to date, but nowadays good cameras are not cheap at all. I was eye-ing on the canon ixus series and Sony Tx series.

But both specs are over 1k =(

One day  I was window shopping around The Empire Gallery Subang, walked into the Sony Center and spotted Sony DSC W350D in PINK! & BLINK2 XD
Oh, and It is LIMITED EDITION! =D

Okay, I know what you are thinking,

"this gal must be a gadget geek!" lol

But.. but..

It is in Pink la! Who cares! LOL

Sony launches in Japan the Cyber-shot DSC-W350D, a special edition of the W350 designed for female users. Two versions are available, the Pink Jewel and Pure White, each with special patterns and crystals.

The 14 Megapixel DSC-W350D features 4x optical zoom lens, ISO 80-3200, a 2.7-inch LCD display and Optical SteadyShot image stabilization. It supports 720p HD video recording. Both Memory Stick and SD/SDHC cards are supported.

The white one looks like this, but I didn't think it is white, rather silver lol.

When I went over to the counter for enquiry :) It's only selling for RM899 with 4GB Sony memory stick. with such spec, I think it was worth. But that time was SOLD OUT! even the display was booked by some customer. URGH!

I ended up visiting almost all the Sony Center in town at Pavilion, Midvalley.. but no luck, all are out of stock. So I actually disposed my thought of having it and focused back on those over 1k which was going to burn a hole in my pocket lol!

Well, here's the twist of the drama =)

Hedgiie happened to have a work trip to Singapore early of this month.

He brought back some sweet souvenirs for me =D

Knowing that I have a sweet tooth and have been always a die-hard fans of the Godiva Chocolate, he suprised me with my favourite Truffles =)

It felt more warmth especially it was during my menses week =D

( this pack is not available at Godiva Pavilion/KLCC, only KLIA )

I was certainly happy enough that he had thought of me on the round trip to there =)

then, he was random enough and gave me this as well,

hedgiie : "this is for you to read la, shopping guide ma, so when we go next time you can shop." *big smile*

me : " ohh.. okay." *frown a bit but still smile*

Then he asked me to close my eyes. HAHAR, I knew it there was something. cos I could sense that he was playing mary-go-round and acting weird. LOL

oh well, I did what he asked me to and he took out the paper bag written

'Sony Style Singapore'

I was shocked when I saw the box inside! I so happily unwrapped it =D

BUT THERE WAS NOTHING INSIDE besides the charger & cables.

He grinned.

I ahhemed! (was a lil disappointed lol!)

Then he said "I just bought the box cos I know you like it so much, it was sold out too."

Then I sighed lightly enough not to show him my disappointed face, and forced a smile to him but finally I still blurted that question,

"where is the camera la? Don't joke okay?" lol.

You can see how much I didn't want to be disappointed LOL.

Then finally he took it out with another pouch which he hid it somewhere at the backseat in the car,

and I screamed with laughter =D and gave him a big hug!

TADA! Not Fool this time, here's the box with the camera XD

There's the pouch he used to hide the camera at the 1st place *evil!* lol.

It is MINE! Mwahahahaha XD

(forgive my hyperness haha!)

Oh by the way, this one was bought at the Singapore therefore there were some differences in the specs which included an 8 GB SD Memory Card which I personally more prefer over the Sony Memory Stick which could only be compatible with Sony's gadgets. SD Card,  I could just plug and play with the lappie or other cameras.

Oh not forget to mention that it came with International Warranty =D

So the missing piece of Art here would be the limited edition pouch which hedgiie already asked his collegue to buy it back from Singapore which is way more cheaper than here. It should be landed in Malaysia by tonight =D teehees!

Let me show you pics taken using ma New Love!

One function I love the most would be the Auto Snap with Smile Detection! =)

It works so greatly with those who love to camwhore a lot, ahhem okay, self-service snapping. LOL!

Trying out with CherylBaby :D

Last but never least, my Hedgiie Jun

Thank you for such a great suprise!

I remembered you said "at least now I help biie settle one on the list d ma" *love*

Thanks for making me the happy pampered little princess on earth!

and I truly appreciate that I could keep a piece of you with me.

I could see tiredness through your eyes that day, but you still planned a suprise for me =)

It was not easy for us after all, but I felt it, I want it to be stronger as we grow stronger for each other.

(okay la, maybe it is just me who needs to grow stronger lol)

I wish I don't have to hug you and cry till the day we parted, becos we have faith, we believe.

(I know I'm lying, the sky will fall if I don't cry on the day, wth!)

So here's a sweet sharing =)

Can you feel it?  I hope yes.

Happy Reading. *loves*

Sandra rolling over ^o^

One More Month

Hey people! Good afternoon! 
I am having problems with my lil MacBook :(


oh fyi, I have just bought my MacBook 13" White last few days!
I was damn hyper when I dropped by Pavilion that day to collect it :D
Thanks to hedgiie dear that helped me to settle that day :)


But then hor, haiz I am seriously an IT freak la. I am a newbie to MacBook.
I don't know how to use it :(
I mean it literally. I know how to on it an stuff but when it comes to arranging the folder or searching for the files and stuffs, I am so lost. urgh =S


So here's my lil Mac :)

say hello to lil Mac :)

Wheeeeee :)

Anyway, I think I need training session for MacBook usage LOL!

or do you guys have any suggestion? :)

Alright, back to the topic of the day.

Counting from today, I have one more month in exact left in Malaysia.

For my dear readers, 

I will be doing my 1st Degree in Law at The University of Manchester, UK.

My flight to Manchester is on the 15th of September, 8.35pm.

Well, time really flies. I still remembered early this year I just entered to Help and quitted it after all. Last time was thinking ahh, I still have half a year, then 3 more months, then now finally I left with only a month.

I am having mix feelings, or you called it the pre-departure syndrome? lol.

I am very excited for my new adventure but at the same time also feeling sad to everything that I have to leave behind.

That, I refers it as 'give and take'.

Thanks to my only and beloved parents, daddy & mummy, I am blessed with such an opportunity to pursue my education at the UK. Without them, I wouldn't be achieving my dream today.

So let me show you some awesome photos on my university :)

The Main Campus

A very traditional British building.

The Upper View

The Main Entrance of Uni.

The Modern side of the campus building :)

A place where I am going to spend most of my 3 years ahead.

I hope to have a great experience with Uni of Manchester.

It is once in a life time that one could enjoy the times to the fullest without any opportunity cost, enjoy holiday without giving up any income resources.

Well, when time gets nearer, I gets more panic and worried. But luckily I do have hiim to fly with me together :) I appreciate it a lot. *loves*

It took me ages to get this blog post done lol. 

I have not get used to the Mac system. hees.

Well, It is time for me to get myself prepared physically and emotionally for my adventure :)

Wish me luck people :)

and please do continue drop by to my blog as for sure I will still be blogging even though I am there :)

What a Hot Day =S

I need a good cooler :P

Nice day people! 

Aiyoyo! Dead Drop Diva!

Good Afternoon to all!
I have all my hands on many important stuffs lately, that's why hadn't been blogging for some days.

urgh =X
the airlines tickets are the pain the ass man.
It took me hours to get their agent to answer my call at their lines.
I seriously feel like ramming the phone while my call was held so long until it says
"Sorry, all agents are busy, please call again, goodbye!" oh FML..

I have been waking up early for the past few days cos I have to help my dad at the office.
There are 2 female staffs that will be delivering their babies very soon within this anytime month and I am here to standby, offering my help.

However, I have yet to have any stuff to do for now in the office but I still seems busy. =/
Thinking of the preparation for the UK, I got myself a big headache most of the time.
So many things to manage. =S

Menses struck yesterday and was a real pain. sigh.
but it gets better today.

I sounded like I have tonnes to complain and I can really go on long for the whole post.
But nahh, you won't want that. lol

Have been keeping in touch with mr.Lioney, George Low
He is currently at the Aussie and is having LDR with his princess at Msia.
It was nice talking to him as he gave me good advices about managing a LDR which I was about to experience real soon.

Oh I think it's time to share my departure date to the UK.
I have had it confirmed on the :

15th of September 2010,

since my accomodation is only available on the morning of 16th of September :)

and so,

I will be having a farewell gathering at my house on the :

28th of August 2010,

I will probably invite my friends personally through text message or phone calls :)

Oh well, enough for the heavies, I have recently been addicted to an American TV series :

"DropDeadDiva"

Created by Josh Berman

Produced by Sony pictures

The series revolves around vapid blonde and aspiring model, Deb Dobkins (played by Brooke D'Orsay in the pilot and in flashbacks), who is killed in a car crash. As her soul enters the gates of Heaven, she finds herself declared a self-centered "zero" (meaning she has performed zero good deeds and zero bad deeds during her time on earth; she is simply shallow) by the gatekeeper, Fred. After not liking what she hears, she presses for a return to her former body, hoping to get back to Earth. Deb gets her wish, only to be brought back to life in the body of a recently deceased, intelligent, overweight lawyer named Jane Bingum, by Brooke Elliot.

Initially horrified, Deb – in her new human form – discovers the meaning of inner beauty as she finds the ability to juggle legal cases, aided by her assistant Terri, while attempting to reconnect incognito with her still-grieving boyfriend, Grayson Kent, who just started working at Jane's law firm. At the same time, Deb begins to rediscover her past while learning more about her inherited body's current life, and how Jane was treated when she was alive. In addition to Fred (who was demoted to guardian angel and had been assigned to watch over her at the law firm), only Deb's long-time mortal friend Stacy knows Jane's true identity.

It is more of a comedy-fantasy drama but on the other hand also showing a sneak peek to the legal world at the states with many interesting cases such as one, the ownership of a Chimp btw divorce couple, Chimp being treated as a property or livings which have rights and feelings being considered on its best interest?? think about it =)  Most importantly, learning to understand and look at one through a 3rd peron's point-of-view and from that, so many different aspects could be observed, just like Deb in Jane's body, observing her ex-boyfriend when she is not literally herself but Jane.

It makes you think a lot besides laughing a lot as well :D

So if you have some spare time, try this :)

I normally watched it from PPS as it offers the complete Season 1 and now on going with Season 2 :) Oh they are quite a few of HOT guys starring too XD

OMG, Migraine strikes again. URGH!

It is Pain, like my brain is going to burst.

Aiyoyo!

That's all for the day.

Goodnight.

Happy Birthday to Sis!

Here is a belated post for my beloved sis :)

Afternoon to all :) Lunch already? I just had pork noodle! nice :D
Well I am currently blogging at my dad's office. D:
Well the connection's very good but I need toothpick for my eyelids already.
I am dozing off anytime if I don't keep myself busy here lol.

Things were not as smooth for me in office, but I don't think I will wanna share it here even though I typed it already just now cos It is sensitive. hmm =|

So let's get back to the birthday party then.

the Official date for this little princess turning 12 is on the 28th of July 2010.

I said : Congratulations sis! you are officially legal and allow to get your identification card! lol

Look at the lovely Helium Balloons.

Daddy bought 30 for her :) *sweet*

They wrote wishes for her and set it free to the blue blue sky!

So my sis invited around 25 of her classmates and friends.

(oh trust me, you wouldn't wanna be here with the kids, they could make you faint!)
They were running through, screaming and shouting, splashing water cos they were playing water balloons and throwing things around.
Once there was a pillow threw down from the upstairs. O.O luckily it didn't hit any glass =X

I insisted to share this pic cos I think my sis looked super cute here :D

*looks like the little chipmunk isn't it?* XD

I have always loved sisterhood, you see.

Sandra.

Furball is Back!

Hello people!

How's your Monday night? Blue Enough? LOL.

Mine was just alright. =/

The visa application is killing me! D:

I cursed that the appointment system didn't work efficiently at all.

I still got to queue for 30 turns until mine and each took like 15mins? OH GOD!

Wasted my time and effort to make the appointment online.

But what to do?? I need it. urgh! =S

Wish I could get it done asap.. iish!

Well, I just came back from a supermarketing with Jun :)

He made my day & cheer me up :D

Thank you dear *love*

So this is a belated post where the lovely girl has been boarded last week, back to Canada.

Nevermind, It is still good to share I guess :)

So let me introduce you my Buddy, The Funky Furball :

Liying! :D

I was a year ago since the last time we met each other.

We were high school buddy since form3 and were parted after form5.

She left to Canada straight after Spm while I left to Italy then. That's why we didn't get the chance to say goodbye that time.

Less keeping in contact probably didn't keep us as close as how we used to be but for sure it did not affect our friendship. We still do keep each other update from time to time. :)

It was a lunch date at Pasta Zanmai, Pyramid.

Oh, so sorry I was late and let her waited for long.

Busy on phone! hees.

The updating session was intensively productive :) and Just wanted you to know that I am glad that I am still me, the Siewthong that you can always share your stuffs. I was happy that you did!

Fiishey & Furballx

Thanks for the sharing and I hoped any advices from me would at least helped a little.

Anyway, I will always support you to have courage to step out.

You may never knew how beautiful love will be if you never let it into your heart.

No matter what's your decision was, I will be backing you up :)

Just promise you will keep me update, alright?

I was probably just a couple of hours of the afternoon. After we said goodbye, I wondered when would we meet again?

Well, this would be hard to say. I am not even sure about coming back next year or not.

Hooe to see you in Manchester this coming year end :)

I will see you when I see you ba!

All the best & take care girl!
