61 Facepalm moments: Boarding School Edition

Just because we're no longer in Hwach and I haven't been around my hilarious boarding mates for a while, here's a facepalm moments post dedicated just to them - only managed to record this few when I have to mood heh. It's very funny/blood-puking talking to them most of the time, but it's great to have them around! After all, I've grown up with them :)) 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

/The one regarding the Samsung Note III
Jane: Why don't buy Note III?
Shin: I also don't know, I only know my home got a lot of notepad one
Jane: Yerrrrr I also got la!!!
I know, I know typical me. Good thing she didn't whack me


Mayxin: I don't like these clips (hair clips).. they stick out of your head..
She claims these only happens when she's bored - we disagree. She makes such comments almost every other day

Mayxin: 我记得One Day (the show) 哪里最好笑
Joyce/Xinhui: 一定不好笑的
*Everyone laughs*
Mayxin: 想想一下,真的不是那么好笑
Typical mayxin. Typical.

My mum to Mayxin when driving us down:
Ma: 哦是你啊呀,我还以为是哪一个泰国明星 (oh it's you, thought it's what Thailand star)
trolololol my mum meant 韩国名星 aka Korean star.. but she said wrongly.. HAHAH I think it's quite funny cause of the different implications? Korean is implying chio but Thailand implaying more of sex-change/tranny? No offense haha Thailand also got a lot of chio stars

Ma: 你几时长这么高 (Since when did you grow so tall?)
My mum is quite good at compli-sults don't you think?

Boarding was spraying the mozzie thing.
Joyce: OMG 像云顶 (like Genting)
Mayxin: 闻起来想我婆婆家 (smells like my Grandma's)
Joyce: 你婆婆家aedes farm ah (Your Grandma's is aedes farm?)

We were talking about most people in Korea undergo cosmetic surgery I think??
Mayxin: 你要我整容啊 (You want me to undergo cosmetic surgery ah?)
Joyce: 你不要啊…等下你生 baby过后人家sue 你啊
(Don't want, later when you give birth other people sue me)

With reference to this photo from a Korean ad, of how beautiful parents have
normal looking children cause of cosmetic surgery
/Joyce trying to troll Mayxin but failed
Joyce: you know moonlight is a reflection of a sunlight right, why vampires won't die at night
Mayxin: er maybe cause it's (moonlight) not intense enough what
Joyce: how can you come up with such logical answers?? Can't you be more normal and say like it's some UV or something

Mayxin on reading my geog A level question paper
Mayxin: what precipitation during tropical climate? 我只可以想到人家口吐白沫 (I can only think about people foaming)
All because precipitate in chem = forming of white solid

On the car with Mayxin and Joyce after gathering, talking about undang (The Malaysian Driving Theory Test, also called KPPJ)
Joyce: Aiya common sense one la. You look at the sign there you tell me what isit saying?
Referring to this sign, which means people are crossing, so look out
Mayxin: errrrrrrrrr... you're allowed to dance?
needless to say, we facepalmed. Actually, we came to consensus that she'll probably fail undang HAHAHA.

Joyce also said that Mayxin thinks that this sign....... 

Is actually telling us to break dance. If Xinhui was reading this, she would clap. HAHA.

62 Facepalm moments: 62 edition

Haven't been around 62 for a really long time but here are some gems from when we were still schooling! 

All the best for y'all who are receiving A level results this Monday!! Let me share this timely verse with you:

"God, thank you for the closed doors. Thank you for not allowing me to settle for second best. 

God, every time I thought I was being rejected from something good, you were re-directing me to something better. 

God, I pray you will give me peace when frustration creeps in. I pray you will give me strength to press on when I'm told, 'no.' 

God, I thank you for teaching me that 'no' is just a step to a bigger and better, 'YES.' 

Amen." 

Okay now for the epic parts. 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Someone in class was telling me this joke the other day:

Q: What does Jack and Mr. Bean both do? (like what are their jobs)

A: They are stalkers. Cause Jack and the Beanstalk.


/wtfwtfwtf.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Econs question stated something like "there are no rooms for discussion". Bao and I was supposed to discuss about it and write an essay outline.

KC: This kind of question confirm it's no room la!
Me: Singapore got a lot leh!! Got... hotel rooms! 8D

Another similar conversation goes like..
KC: Singapore got what seasons ah? Like a bit no season right!
Me: Got Four Seasons (the hotel) 


Normally KC will go "like you ah.." then he shake his head. I'm the kind of people that is considered with hopeless lameness hehehe.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

QTK: What does the Blue white and red in the France flag represent?
Vic: ITALYYYY!

#blonde
Btw, this is taken from Wikipedia:

" The three colours are occasionally taken to represent the three elements of the revolutionary motto, liberté (freedom: blue), égalité (equality: white), fraternité (brotherhood: red)"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

QTK: Which country used to be w Pakistan and starts w a B?
Vic: BRITAIN

QTK: No a nearer country one that recently appeared in the news* 
Vic: SINGAPOREEE


correct answer is Bangladesh btw. *News referred here was the one about the textile factory collapsing due to lousy infrastructural management & pressure from the MNC/local government to work even in harsh conditions. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


My class has a few guys shorter than average, so there's a lot of comic relief regarding height that goes on. So this was what happened one day...

Someone:(most probably Wanlin LOLOLOL) You got chance of growing taller?
Xinyi: What's your problem?! Ask god la! 


He was totally like F.M.L Not like I can do anything about it /flipstable. But I still find it funny ahaha

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Yinnshan: I feel so small in this great vast world. Next to a meteor I'm just a speck of dust. WHAT ARE HUMANS. WHY DO WE EXIST!??
Shichun: To give birth to two soccer teams

/handsdownthewinner /epic
Shichun has always joked of having loads and loads of children. Two football teams to be exact AHAHHA. 


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Discussion during Chem class cause it's just so boring

Joyee: Shin, You hve so much white hair! You should be less stressed!
Me: I'm sure if I quit school I'll be less stressed..
Joyee: lets ask Wanlin if she has white hair!
Wanlin: nope (she was listening to us whilst trying to look attentive)
Joyee: that's good it means you're not stressed 
Wanlin: -but I'm balding 

HAHHA Joyee went what the shitt! ah chem lessons are so fun with these two

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Weimin: OMG is that Jackie Chan?? 


Well, clearly not hahahah. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

During career setting, we were supposed to say our ambitions and what are we gonna do to achieve them (supposed to make us motivated to study harder, but as usual, 62 uses it as a trolling session) 

Some dude: I wanna be batman!!
Jiajing: but that one need wear underwear outside..
Mr Tan: .. That's superman

#epicfail

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Econs lesson with MToh:

MToh: you guys go to which bank? OCBC? DBS? 
Yinnshan: UOB
KC: OCBC
Wayne: piggy bank!

 #actcutewaynestrikesagain

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Shichun: If I do a lot of chem I also chemwhore

#wisewords #punny

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The usual geog lesson.

Gomez: teacher teacher I got question to ask!! 
Mrs Chua: you call me teacher I call you boy, ok? Yes, boy? 

This one also happened to fall on parents day. 

Gomez: Mrs Chua, I think you v pretty today!! 
Mrs Chua: Are your parents seeing me today?!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Think this was during the CT session for racial harmony day 

Mr Tan: How do you prevent racial riots?
KC: Firstly... We have racial harmony day. We don't celebrate but we acknowledge the day la, theres like EMB message 
Shichun: And we eat Indian food! 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
God I miss this bunch of people ;-;

36 Come What May x Blogshop models x Funny stuff

Life's been a mess recently, and I don't know what I'm doing. But I do know I need anger management issues. How I wish As was over and I can happily go out all day and roam about, or that I have devoted myself into blogging much earlier, and not during this period whereby I am forced to study all the time.

I have a lot of photos and experiences parked in my phone - those that I want to blog about include my first  time supporting my beloved fencers in their competition, (I didn't know Malaysia had a sports school, and I didn't know that we even had fencing as a sport - anyways so gonna take on fencing after As, it's listed right there on the right side on my blog :)) I wanted to do a review for Grin Affair and The Tiramisu Hero,  probably the only few awesome cake-in-the-jars sold in Singapore, I want to write about my Girls' Night experience with Yvonne, whereby we went to NOOKS House of Pancake and the Premiere of Iron Man 3. 


Unfortunately, life has been such that I'm stuck here talking to you when I'm supposed to be doing Math. Managed to complete 2 worksheets this afternoon so phew haha. For April, it was a lot of birthday celebrations, Elect Camp and stopping myself from crawling away from reality time after time. In May, tons of lecture tests coming up, and a very grand project - also the last one that I'll be involved in for Interact is in the next month. Of course, weekends are packed too - there is Huang Cheng (bottom right), annnual HCI Chinese Drama club production. Always loved Chinese drama - and HC does a spectacular job every year. This year, my pal Soo Thong's brother is the lead actor HAHA. There has always been a saying that Huang Cheng is dominated by Malaysians, definitely true for senior batches. Not true for us. Here, the juniors are continuing the legacy now haha. Our batch is an anamoly :P And then the Faculty Outings are all going to happen. This year idk what is Athena's theme.. but last year it was WICKED, about witches and wizards.. and I was the fac witch so does that mean I'm gonna get caught this year T_T


And there are loads and loads of good shows coming out this year...

On my watch list there's Iron Man, Fast Six, Star Trek, Despicable me, Smurfs, Percy Jackson, and Hunger Games! So freaking excited I don't even hehheh. 2013 is a good movie year :) Looking forward to all the good movie dates spent with awesome awesome people this year! June holidays I'm already planning to meet my beloved Malaysian bitches and it's got me bubbling with excitement (but I've got to ground myself to stop procrastinating and refusing to do work)




Side note, I've really been into online shopping recently. And yes it was all because of The Tinsel Rack. HAHA They have my favourite set of models - I'm more for Ding Xuan and Cheryl than Melisa tho ahha. I have always wanted to get overalls and it is the picture of the left that got me so excited - also the start of my journey. Later purchased the stripey dress and others heehee. 
I've concluded that this unhealthy obsession has to stop tho - or else I'll just spend hundreds online all the time. But for your reference, I prefer The Tinsel Rack and Gipsy Pixie the most, or maybe the occasional Love Bonito. People do prefer The Closet Lover too. And it's also because of this unhealthy obsession I've found many of these models' blogs to share.

One of my favourite models is Andrea Chong, who writes at 1blog2lives.com (@dreachong) I think she is really classy as compared to the average Singaporean, and her bangs are really so cute on her haha. She models for random blogshops too (such as laceandbuttons....) and she radiates happiness and joviality through photos, one of the reasons why I like her so much. Apparently she's also a show host too. But she's also a student >_> which makes me even more jealous. Maybe uni life is as such maybe? The romper she's wearing is so nice I couldn't help but to get one myself haha - I am preparing my lazy wear for uni :P there's a 10% discount for that which I missed - so yeap do remember there's discounts all over her posts! 
Next one that I really like to introduce to you is Eunice Annabel, at euniceannabel.blogspot.com (@euniceannabel too HAHA). She has really sharp features, and I think that comes from the perks of being a mixed blood? I think she's just naturally very very photogenic ohmygee I jealous ): She's doesn't even need to have make up to look good - all her shots are really really good!! Her sponsors are even more than Andrea's, I think she is one of those top tier models that people look for - y'know in the same league as LoveBonito's Velda and Rachel. Looking good really has its perks I swear! Anyways Eunice blogs about good food, her party life and times that she spends with her boyfriend Fai - really sweet couple :) You can go and bloghop a bit if you want! 
Last person I'll like to talk about is Sherlyn! You can find her at sherylnchanwp.blogspot.com, or @Sherlynchanwp on Instagram . You guys would probably think she's someone like Beatrice Tan or like Andrea and Eunice that I mentioned above, but no haha Sherlyn is a teacher :) It's always nice reading very fluent English, and how she would share her thoughts about God and her relationship. She is in a very very cute relationship (search #yaosher on Instagram if you're interested), sadly that was only after a painful past. But she is a rising star, now that she's starting to be models for plenty more blogshops. It does come with a price tho - her monthly online shopping can account for $500++ heh.
Anyways other blogs you might love to read (in no particular order) includes:
Heh if you wanna look for cute guys I would recommend typicalben.blogspot.com heehee ^ ~ ^


Sorry that this is a bit girl bias hahaha anyways I doubt many guys read my blog please. But nonetheless, I would recommend all of you to check out Naked Glory! They have most classic statements I've seen since a long long time - considering it's Casio, it comes quite affordable to some too! When I first laid my eyes on these pair of silver Casio watches my heart melted omg! I LOVED IT. But dammit hahah no bf to buy for or else I confirm buy a pair. Y'know someone actually told me instead of a bf I should find a girl to lesbo with HAHAHAHHAHA. I mean yea it's possible but HAHAHHAA.            Anyways the world map watch, as you can see below, is the current craze in Singapore, I have no idea why too. But do check out this shop :))  

LOL Enough of my advertorials, like I v popz liddat haha. It's just my random bloghopping and stumbling into people's blogs heh. I find the blogosphere a very very interesting one. Like you can find joy and laughter in blogs such as my favourite Audrey's blog (fourfeetnine.com) I find her my favourite among the Cheesie, Xiaxue, Audrey, Bongqiuqiu group(basically popz bloggers group) and hey she's expecting her first child too hahaha. I love her sarcastic posts, super darn funny. That reminds me, previously Aud said that she finds this person in Formspring who is very funny, and after checking it out I totally agree with her haha. Come I shall document her responses before Formspring shuts down for good. I think it's very funny luh, you should read hahahah. 




Anyways yeah haha all the crap heh, now I'm feeling all happy and merry teehee. Like this you know: 
PS Apple Bloom is like my favourite pony since forever. And will be my favourite one.
SEE SHE'S SO CUTE RIGHT HAHAHA.

Ending off with a very nice and soothing oldie from 张学友 - 在你身边 :)

32 Of Running, Math and Jokes


I'm supposed to being doing the second part of my run now but sadly it's raining D: it's just rare that I'm spontaneous about running cause I'm too lazy to move my ass has. (Lol I actually took a photo to prove that it's actually raining and I'm not giving excuses to not run but the photo quality sucks and I can't even see if it's raining or not)

I haven't been exercising much since I didn't join back table tennis as a CCA and the fact that I'm lazy, but I think I get enough exercise playing catch with kids during CCA..? Does that count heh. But now considering the kids I handle are less sporty I forfeit that too :( but on the other hand I've been having crappy abdominal pains and yada yada so I refrain from exercising to prevent accidents from happening (yeah no joke k :p)

Cool pic of some girl running.. or floating LOL
It's been quite sometime since I actually ran (running after the bus doesn't count) and miraculously it helped me feel a lot more fresh and happy. (Even though i'm now icky and sweaty all over heh) Hmm maybe this was what people meant by running is destressing haha. My horrible headache from math is gone too! Considering that this is healthy and it burns fats, I should probably try running more after As, so shall put that on my list of "To Do After A's"! I'm like 8 months away from As and I'm already looking forward to the end lol. Typical me.

Anyways, going back to the title, math paper was today! Math used to be a bliss in primary school when I just somehow could zam everything. But since then, math has been my weakest subject in JC (I kid you not, the A+ in NY isn't worth anything coming here) and I really don't like math considering it just pushes me down to the ground D: I really can't connect the dots and apply the skillzzz sucks to be me ): And people like Tuck just go like.. "I don't need practice one leh" wtf.

THIS is how I feel about math half of the time....

(Honestly I find it weird how can someone love math, like it just brings you down all the time, kind of like a sadistic notion to harm yourself. Or maybe it's just that I'm too lousy in math to enjoy it and people feel nice conquering it. It's like you'll most likely feel nice if you're good at something) It's like imaginary and not fun at all to me!!)

HAHA Too cute already. Yes prolly need to punch something to tell the Math Dept to be more humane.
Even though batches are grumbling about the inhumane math paper today (I didn't finish the paper but it's not the first time that happens), I felt rather contented with my performance today :)
(okay don't niao first and read on )

Consider the two of my worst math paper experiences: last year promos I started tearing halfway of the paper and in sec four, blocks paper 2 made me feel so horrible I went back and curled into a ball and cried. (well I later opened my box of memories and read all the letters people gave me and felt so much happier/blessed)
LOL We all need to learn to zen to channel out that negativity from papers with the aim to bring you down
(even though they say it's only to test your abilities grrr)

Today I felt glad that 1. I was rather calm (or more like the notion that I'm-screwed-but-I-will-still-try-my-best) and that 2. I managed to really force myself to think of ways to solve that bloody question that seemed like an impenetrable fortress. I felt that my attitude to bring down the paper was much more important than the grades (even though I would lament about it later on). This is a little stepping stone to getting that A that everybody wants for math that I would want to remember in the future. I actually doubt I would be able to get an actual A for As (hahaha alliteration) but I really hope it wouldn't affect me getting into business/finance modules that I want! (Self reminder: talk to gramps after blocks!)

So good job for today Shin, now go study for your chem on Thursday!
Since we all need some jokes.. Here's some very outdated math jokes:




...and my personal favourite:




HAHAH Hope that made you laugh. It made me laugh :) 
Have a good day and jiayou for remaining blocks!

25 Facepalm Moment #11: School Edition

Since school started, January was pretty hectic and tiring. I've managed to find pockets of time now that I've downgraded my chem to a H1, and I don't regret it at all :)


I have a feeling I'm going to love February more, given that Chinese New Year is coming, which only means one thing = HOME! Which also equals to GOOD FOOD :) and potential chance for siblings who sleep late and risk missing the bus like last year. Static Kayakking 2013 is also happening around Valentines, which comes right after New Year! Check out the super pretty colours the t-shirts come in :)

IT SCREAMS "BUY ME BUY ME"! Do a favour and listen to what the shirts have to say!
HAHA It's also gonna be exciting seeing the love around school during Valentines'. I kind of wanna see which guy is the most creative to confess his love for his special one or something. Gonna be exciting with all the roses and stuff. Yeah also anticipating what the class couple(s) are gonna do! *bubbles with excites teehee* Pardon me, I always have this thing for traditional romance haha it's just OH-SO-CUTE. I was watching wedding proposals the other day waiting for my hair to dry, then I started crying along with the girls who get proposed to omg. HAHA like WTF right but still it's just so touching, I really wonder what will happen when I get proposed to. I'll probably get a video of me crying non-stop hahaha wtf when I look back I'm gonna see that I have an ugly face from crying. Here's one of the clips that made me cry:



Y'know I always thought that me loving all the happy wedding occasions (let's strike away the increasing number of divorces happening recently) and yeah OMG HAHA I SHOULD BE A WEDDING PLANNER/WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER or even become 27 bridesmaids HAHAHAHAHA :D but okay let's put that side for now cause here's FACEPALM WORTHY 11: SCHOOL EDITION!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Was discussing about Education in GP. Mr Tan scribbled two words on the board: PIRLS and TIMSS...

Mr Tan: You guys know what is these two a not?

Shichun: the below one is the math and science one!
(seriously SC you couldn't have been more helpful ahha I know so much more about TIMSS now hahaha. BTW TIMSS refers to the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study)

Mr Tan: then this? (points to PIRLS) Nobody knows? It's the jewelry one eh!

-after some time, everyone face palm-

Did you get it? PIRLS sounds like PEARLS. But seriously PIRLS actually represent Progress in International Reading Literacy Study.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


-Watching some Channel 5 news reporting about Singapore being top few in the world in math and science-

Mr Tan: Apparently you guys must like math and science more than the rest of the world!

Nicko: Wow teacher they must really hate it a lot!

HAHAHA That made Mr Tan speechless for a long while

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr Tan: In your GP essays please don't refer to Africa as a whole country

Shichun: But it's a actually a continent!

SERIOUSLY Should have seen Mr Tan's face when he cringes! He always say we talk back to him but seriously it's very very funny hahaha.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well in Geog we were learning about Seasons....

Bao: but (in Singapore) we don't have seasons!

Me: We have! Four Seasons!

I was referring to Four Seasons hotel if you guys don't actually know, and yeah hahah Bao facepalmed! :D my classmates always think I'm very lame heehee.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At Wah Chee, favourite stall opposite ACSI campus, having lunch after SATs whilst enjoying the strong breeze. Was telling Junhui about most US campuses are very windy, for example the IB campuses in Singapore have a requirement that it must have greenery and the school compound must be windy (which is the reason why I simply adore going to ACSI and sit at the grandstand and think about life)

Shin: ........so yeah! That's why it's always so windy here!
Junhui: so.... ACSI have a lot of wind?

I facepalmed. HAHHA Junhui so that's what you get from what I told you?


Featuring: Wah Chee's famous butter chicken :)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Met Xiaojing the other day and she was whining about her injuries from ice skating.

Xiaojing: Look at my bruises, there's one here, here, here and here! Very painful leh!

Shin: Eh my class next door got a Bruce also!

HAHAHA She wanted to whack me so bad, but I think it was a really good joke.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's really so much I can remember of all the lame jokes and facepalm moments that I have from school. Will update more next week about Chinese New Year and a little surprise I've been preparing for ;)

Till next time, x!

17 Facepalm Worthy #10: Family edition

To commemorate the last post that I'm going to be posting from my ever stable home wifi, I bring you #17 of Facepalm Worthy. It's really gonna be hard without retarded family around me to talk about retarded things meh :< to be honest, I don't really want to start on the last year of my Singalaysian life too..

----------------------------------------------
Was telling my sister about the daughter of my dad's friend. So.. Her mum was so paranoid when a boy asked her out for a movie, she tagged along. So a two people date became three. HAHAHAH. So this was the reaction of the story:

Mummy: Next time you bring me along ah?
Me: You confirm fall asleep one!

(I'm not even kidding, the one time she didn't fall asleep was the time she woke up after Aslan's roar in Narnia. Yeah haha she was too startled haha)

Sis: Yealuh, my type of movie you confirm will fall asleep one!

(Correct again, since my sister prefers soapy literature and what not Cheem movies and classics)

Mummy: Never mind I sleep in the middle can already!!

(Definitely you can count on my mum to do such things haha)

--------------------------------------------

Me: Ma, 什么是香菜?
(Ma, what's the english name for xiangcai? btw that's Chinese parsley;coriander)

Mum: good-smelling vegetable.
(香:good-smelling, fragrant
菜:vegetable)

------------------------------------------
So after dinner, sister wanted to eat 豆沙包red bean bun and my dad bought like 4 for her. He just took one out on the spot and gave us all a bit.

Sis:咿〜你的手酱肮脏谁要吃?
(Eeeee~ your hands so dirty who would want to eat? This she refers to the little bits of red bean bun he handed to us)

Dad: 你啦!
(You la!)

#Sisgotowned. HAHAHA

----------------------------------------
Btw, mum brought me to Chinese so sei to treat my ankle since I was always saying it hurts even though the sprains was prolly like one/two years ago or smth. Turns out that since it never really healed + my crazy playing football/basketball/sports this year and my addiction to cold stuff -eh can't blame me weather really freaking hot - so basically my nerves have blots of congregated blood that needs to be massaged/whatever so that the blood can flow as per normal again. I'm not kidding it's seriously v painful T-T So here's the convo with my sister after wrapping up my ankles..

Me: Eh Jie look!! Cool trendy socks! The most in thing this season!

Sis: Yeah.. Very nice ankle socks. HAHAHAHAHHA Geddit, literally ANKLE socks.

(I swear this woman has epicly low laughing point - 低笑点)

Below I attach a picture of my ankle socks ft. my gold Havainas hahaha :)

I'm currently taking driving lessons (yeah haha Malaysians are allowed to drive once we're 17!) and I must admit AHHA I'm nt bad at the wheel. And the uncle teaching me is very mean/Facepalm worthy lol.
Since I forgot quite a lot, I shall type what I remember for today to share the laugh!

Scene 1:

(Cause you're supposed to step on the clutch then step on the brake when you brake, and then you release the brake, step on the accelerator and then release the clutch, and sadly I suck at that hahahaha.)

Uncle: 每次没有踩油就放clutch,车买给你了咯!想还不坏掉?!
(Everytime you release the clutch without stepping on oil, my car sell to you already luh, confirm spoil)

I think it's funny cause he told me he's gonna sell me the car cause I spoilt it hahahah. I think he was like crying 'OMG my car' beneath whilst his heart was bleeding seriously.

Scene 2:

Then since its pretty awkward not talking to him on the road, so yeah we talked lol.
Me: uncle, 你记得我姐姐啊?
(Uncle, you remember my sister?)

Uncle: 记得!做末*不记得?她驾车要吃东西的,不然不能驾!
(Of course, why not? She drive need to eat one, or else cannot drive)

I was totally speechless luh I mean, if you're driving manual, you'll have a hand in the gear and the other on the steering wheel and my sister -_-' true pig.

Scene 3:

Me: Uncle, 你教人家驾车有没有被气死?
(Uncle, you teach people drive got case that make you geram* die a not? )

Uncle: 气死还在这边教你驾车啊?
(If really die then I still here teaching you ah?)

Me: Then 气到半死 有没有?
(Half die got a not?)

Uncle: 气到半死去医院躺了咯!
(Half die lie in hospital la!!)

Super 欠扁uncle seriously! But it's fun driving a kancil on the highway and all. Maybe it's fun for me but not for the uncle HAHAHA. So looking forward to driving friends who are coming to visit me house next year!! :)

**Editted: There was this little excerpt I remembered today! Anyways since yesterday I learnt how to park, suddenly I heard somebody honk me (Actually in Malaysia we kinda pronounce it as "Horn" for some reason, but I hear it as "hon" hahaha yeah lazy people tend to cut short the letters :P) I was 1) very shocked and 2) wondering who did I offend. Then the uncle stared at me and went, "OI why you horn yourself?" #stupidmaximum

Dictionary for words with a star* :D
-做末is a Malaysian slang, which basically means 做什么being read super fast haha
-Geram is a Malay word that is similar to 无奈/annoyed/helpless. Basically driving you mad.

Here's a little note for y'all today :D

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PS. Friday is an important festival for all Chinese! It's called 冬至!(pronounce it as dong1 zhi4) It also means Winter Solstice :) The thing I love about Chinese festivals is that there are always countless stories about them, and it just makes everything ever so meaningful. Lemme share a few stories below: (fully copied online hahaha, I'm not that smart la xD)

冬至的由来
唐、宋时期,冬至是祭天祭祀祖的日子,皇帝在这天要到郊外举行祭天大典,百姓在这一天要向父母尊长祭拜,现在仍有一些地方在冬至这天过节庆贺。 

冬至传说之一 
过去老北京有“冬至馄饨夏至面”的说法。相传汉朝时,北方匈奴经常骚扰边疆,百姓不得安宁。当时匈奴部落中有浑氏和屯氏两个首领,十分凶残。百姓对其恨之入骨,于是用肉馅包成角儿,取“浑”与“屯”之音,呼作“馄饨”。恨以食之,并求平息战乱,能过上太平日子。因最初制成馄饨是在冬至这一天,在冬至这天家家户户吃馄饨。 

吃“捏冻耳朵”是冬至河南人吃饺子的俗称。缘何有这种食俗呢?相传南阳医圣张仲景曾在长沙为官,他告老还乡那时适是大雪纷飞的冬天,寒风刺骨。他看见南阳白河两岸的乡亲衣不遮体,有不少人的耳朵被冻烂了,心里非常难过,就叫其弟子在南阳关东搭起医棚,用羊肉、辣椒和一些驱寒药材放置锅里煮熟,捞出来剁碎,用面皮包成像耳朵的样子,再放下锅里煮熟,做成一种叫“驱寒矫耳汤”的药物施舍给百姓吃。服食后,乡亲们的耳朵都治好了。后来,每逢冬至人们便模仿做着吃,是故形成“捏冻耳朵”此种习俗。以后人们称它为“饺子,也有的称它为“扁食”和“烫面饺”,人们还纷纷传说吃了冬至的饺子不冻人。

 冬至传说之二 
冬至吃狗肉的习俗据说是从汉代开始的。相传,汉高祖刘邦在冬至这一天吃了樊哙煮的狗肉,觉得味道特别鲜美,赞不绝口。从此在民间形成了冬至吃狗肉的习俗。现在的人们纷纷在冬至这一天,吃狗肉、羊肉以及各种滋补食品,以求来年有一个好兆头。 

冬至传说之三 
在江南水乡,有冬至之夜全家欢聚一堂共吃赤豆糯米饭的习俗。相传,有一位叫共工氏的人,他的儿子不成才,作恶多端,死于冬至这一天,死后变成疫鬼,继续残害百姓。但是,这个疫鬼最怕赤豆,于是,人们就在冬至这一天煮吃赤豆饭,用以驱避疫鬼,防灾祛病。
冬至经过数千年发展,形成了独特的节令食文化。诸如馄饨、饺子、汤圆、赤豆粥、黍米糕等都可作为年节食品。曾较为时兴的“冬至亚岁宴”的名目也很多,如吃冬至肉、献冬至盘、供冬至团、馄饨拜冬等。
 较为普遍的有冬至吃馄饨的风俗。早在南宋时,临安人就在冬至吃馄饨,开始是为了祭祀祖先,后逐渐盛行开来,民间有“冬至馄饨夏至面”之说。馄饨发展至今,更成为名号繁多,制作各异,鲜香味美,遍布全国各地,深受人们喜爱的著名小吃。馄饨名号繁多,江浙等大多数地方称馄饨,而广东则称云吞,湖北称包面,江西称清汤,四川称抄手,新疆称曲曲等等。 
And this is why I always say I am damn heavily Chinese influenced. I just feel that Chinese culture is very interesting with the various intriguing stories, and I can't help but to divulge into them.

On the right you can see what we normally call as 汤圆 (tang1 yuan2), also known as glutinous rice balls. this was especially memorable for little kids cause we could roll balls of dough - different colours, all based on creativity into balls of different sizes. Sometimes we mix them into pretty disgusting colours lol. Of course I love to add peanut in between!!!  But now, supermarkets selling instant tangyuans just takes the fun outta it /sadface/

But every Chinese festival highlights one thing - the importance of family gatherings to keep everyone close knitted, emphasizing that family is ultimately the one you can fall back on. Not just your family, but your whole extended family. Despite family disputes or whatever, I felt between the kids, we know none of these adult bullshit and if both parties are willing, we will huddle into a mess and play :) It never fails to strike me how all of us grew up so fast, and yet still holding onto that strong bond we forged since young. I'm blessed to have an extended family that warmly cares for me, and of course with many of us in different locations now, we don't forget to call back and catch up now that technology is so advanced :)

With that, merry advanced Winter Solstice and Christmas! Btw, do you think that Doomsday will come? :)

My mum's been following 华人星光大道 keenly these two years, it's a singing competition in Taiwan that attracts contestants from like all over the world to sing their hearts out to win loads and loads of gifts! If you haven't heard about it, lemme attach a clip of it here:


Since I was catching up with XFactor(USA)... Fyi I support Carly Rose!
Yeah the thumbnail a bit unglam la but she's this sweet yet matured looking 13 year-old with some really incredible voice that I will never have *sobsob*


I used to support Cece Frey!! (Yes I was once in the Cecetribe or whatever but yeah I am super positive... that Demi screwed her up! If she was under Simon, she could have probably last till today D:) Below I shall include the clip whereby Cece sang "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston which I found really mindblowing :D


Okay anyways yeah I side tracked but since my mum likes these kinda singing shows, so I jio-ed her to watch Carly Rose's performance this week with me. It's "Imagine" by Elton John this week btw, LURVE the song choice :D Can't believe under Demi she's still pushing for it and doing fine :)

Anyways today's conversation went like this:

Me: Eh Ma come check this out, this little girl only 13 leh can sing very well

Mum: What show?

Me: XFactor

Mum: Eeyur why you watch this kind of show they eat bugs and do all kinds of scary things..

Me: Ma, that's FEAR FACTOR, not XFactor...

7 Facepalm worthy #1

Half inspired by Things Shorty and Fatty say by TimTiah, lo and behold here I am with Things people make me facepalm, with daily things people make me speechless heh. so here's the #1 by my dearest mummy today. Seriously mummy too cute already lol.

After dinner, eating durian w mummy:

Me: *serious face* eh ma, we should probably go buy emergency supplies leh. I have a feeling on 21st the disaster would be a flood.

Mum: *reading newspaper whilst eating durian* hmmm really meh, you think too much leh

Me: but you see recently keep raining super heavily if its not flood then its what. Plus know later you'll get cut off of electricity and then prolly got fire (maybe not fire, that's like the drastic consequences of a volcano eruption/earthquake -_-')

Mum: okay lo, tomorrow we go buy. You go search what to buy hor.

Me: but I don't know what to buy leh. All I know is watch movie they say must stick up.

Mum: okay lo, buy rice and bread. Maybe I should buy two pork ribs and put in the fridge can warm it up when we are stuck hor. Yeah need vege also. Dont worry we got a lot of biscuits. Worse come to worse we eat durian with rice. Can right?

Me: -facepalm- you sure you not buying for a feast ah.

Cause the fan on top the dining table was creaking really loudly and my mum couldn't stand it, so she stood up and was like: 'eh I turn it faster ah, see if it will become softer'. Guess what happened?

The creaking just became faster -_- and as my mummy turned the fan speed faster it also became faster, not softer at all. And Mummy was like grinning to herself *facepalm*

That's all for today, enough facepalm s! Gonna have to try to blog more and juggle my studies ;) stay tuned! See ya x
