7 or 14 more days?

The background check is taking forever!!

Still haven't do medical check...

When am I going Labuan?

Sigh suppose to meet up so many friends in December and end of November. Wonder if I will be in KL when they are back or when they drop by KL.

You know you will always be welcomed in Labuan..

I googled for cinema in Labuan just to get a picture of how "ulu" it is. And from someone's blog, I found out that there is only 1 cinema and to make it worse, it's a small cinema, not GSC or TGV or Cineleisure...

At that point, I felt so discouraged. Someone warned me bout Baton Rouge too few years back, but maybe because I was going to US, it didn't seem that bad but I still remember the first few months in US was not really that exciting..

Anyway went to Coco Banana on Friday night and Scarlet on Saturday night.

Coco Banana had TOO many guys...

Scarlet has no dance floor...

So lesson of the day is... never go club unless you have a well mixed group (guys + girls) and make sure there's a dance floor.

What else...

Oh.. don't even know where I will be Christmas this year, I really wanna spend Christmas with my family

Time to leave home again?

Oh ya, what did you dress up as this Halloween? (Forced to wear that bunny ear thingy) - the girl is a friend of friends working at the club

-- I don't really fancy Halloween, it's a personal preference...

Just feel the need for updates

Whoa looking at my blog and I see an decreasing trend in the amount of blogs in the last few months and for some reason I think its gonna continue to go down some more.

Gonna stop blaming the internet at home because I just don't have the initiative to blog!

But anyways few things that wanna be said here so that I can read back and remember the "whats up" of these few months...

hmmm...

Ok, I am waiting on my official job offer letter. Yes I went for an interview and they called me back the day after and gave me my "verbal job offer". Which company is that? It's Baker Hughes, the company I intern-ed with last year. However, doesn't mean that its a 100% thingy, just worried they give a really bad offer... pray that is not the case!

Oh ya birthday was a blast..

Went to Coco Banana, a club in Sunway Pyramid. Invited quite a few of people but in the end only 5 people turned up. Honestly, I was rather disappointed with myself because of the no of people that turned up. I wanted to use it as a good "excuse" you can say to meet and catch up with some old friends.

Even created a facebook event thingy but I guess... maybe people are just busy...

But not to forget the few brothers that I have that never say never!

Fr left: CY, Chang, Calvin, Charlene

So that was taken at Coco Banana on Oct 9 night. I usually spend my birthday with my family.

Love u Xiang for the birthday post on your blog.. Here it is...

Also not to forget the US brothers, thanks Wai Kit for the 1+ hours phone call. Must have been rather conversation depressed or we can just talk that long eh. And Jian Wei for the online wishes....

Of course the countless facebook wishes... even some that I hardly ever talk to anymore... its the thought that counts.

Dinner with family members on Oct 10 night

So it wasn't the most grand birthday that I had hoped for but I was really happy and satisfied. Parents were so worried and kept asking me what I wanted to do for my birthday. Mom didnt even "advice" me when I got home late from club.

Oct 12,

Sister started to throw up after breakfast and couldn't eat anything. So I brought her to the clinic and doctor said I should bring her to hospital. The gastroenterologist admitted her. They suspected infection but she came home the day after and been well ever since.

Also Oct 13... was a tragic day.. Got a call from dad bout 2pm in the afternoon and dad told me bout my 5th uncle's death. Uncle was involved in a car accident that morning and from what I hear, passed away on the spot.

Parents took a bus down to Kuantan on Friday (Oct 16) to attend the funeral. I was suppose to follow Grace back to Setiawan but had to write a rain check coz parents were worried that sister might not feel well again. Sorry Grace!

Just turned in my screening form on Monday for background check purposes.

Kinda excited bout what's gonna happen.

Hope to blog soon!

p/s: Thanks Cheryl for chauffering me around :P

See ya

After September 19

Arrived on September 21, 2009. Second day of raya...

Dad and mom wasn't working so they went to KLIA to pick me up with a surprise. It was a surprise because it was a graduation welcome. Don't know if I make myself clear but they brought a teddy bear because I complained I didn't get one from them at my graduation in May. Mom had to rush all the way to KLCC to buy one... so touched

:')

28 hours of flight really take a toll on you

Some things during the flight that I wanted to share... lets see..

• Never sit in the middle in between two person.
  

• If you get to choose your seat, seat way in front please because people tend to walk to the back of the airplane to stretch so you practically experience heavy traffic volume at the back.

• Drink lots of water and bring an eye drop with you unless you sleep a lot during the flight. Your eyes becomes so dry and stings when you lack of sleep

• Cathay Pacific has awesome air stewardess but lousy food..

So upon arrival I stop at my usual duty free shop to get some liquor. Wanted to get some Crown Royale but they didn't have it so I bought Jim Bean whisky instead. The saleslady said it was the bestselling whisky... *shrugs* haven't get a chance to try it so don't know if I got con or not...

Then, attended cousin's wedding dinner last Saturday (September 26). The wedding dinner was held at The Spread, it was buffet style and the only food that tasted good, at least for me, was the Beef Satay!

Mom and younger sister

My Family... miss you Xiang

The Happy Couple

Camwhoring runs in the family ;)

One more!

My Family plus Cousin Meng Tjun

Plus the wedding couple

Scouted a cute girl ;)

How? lol...

Not complete without the tea ceremony

The month of wedding I guess. This month itself my parents already attended 2 wedding dinners and I think 2 more to go. I think its because of the auspicious month in the Chinese calendar.

Next year the special date is 10/10/10. My wedding date... ;)

Haha...

Oi... you reading this... find me la... pls.... desperate d.... I admit it! :S

I'll be lying if I say...

that I am happy right now...

not the slightest..

when I finally feel un-alienated in the US, I have to leave...

don't like these constant changes...

although its going home but I guess my heart is more biased to staying here.

haven't pack... and I am flying off tmr evening...

oh gosh... what an emotional wreck..

:'(

1 Week Before

Haven't pack... not good... lol...

Anyways been hanging out with Xiang, his housemate and Daphne a lot lately...

Been a while since I feel this comfortable... almost like at home... maybe because my brother is here.. I can talk almost about anything with him... scold him when he's wrong... and guide them as they are new in US...

Also been a long time since I have a close girl-friend around that I can joke around like with Daphne. I think I even crossed the barrier a few times but am grateful that she knows me well enough not to take it to heart... that is why close friends are so hard to come by... especially to someone like me...

Just feel so comfortable around friends like that... im gonna be lying if I say I don't feel heavy heart-ed leaving Stillwater, leaving my brother and friends...

I came here expecting myself to be bored to death but I am enjoying myself taking care of brother, trying out new dishes... chit chat with my friend... helping them with homeworks at time... or just meeting the bigger Malaysian community here...

Whatever it is... still looking forward to see what is next...

Cheers
