March Madness

Dear March,
You're one of my favorite months every year not just because I was born on this month (actually it is. haha), but you never fail to make it more and more exciting for me every year. Especially this year. =)

It has been a crazeee and exciting month for me. Decisions, competitions, work loads, falling sick, horrible toothache, commitments, celebrations, loads of fun..Ahhh. And it's still not ending! Another 5 more days to go! =)

I was supposed to blog about my birthday celebration but but but..too busy ma. =) But I should at least take this opportunity to thank my awesome possum bunch of friends for making this an unforgetful birthday. =)

[Hueyyi, Zhini, Yifui, Juling and Kelyn surprised me at pass midnight with a "special" homemade chocolate cake. =) I shall not explain why it's special here. Haha.]

And Zhini compiled an birthday autograph book for me which consist of notes and birthday wishes from my coursemates. So sweet right?;)

[& pardon my sleepy look. It was already very late when they barged in. =)]

Then another group of friends gave me a surprise after lab work. Hehe. Thank you peeps. =)

I was actually very tired due to falling sick and having a very bad wisdom tooth ache..=( So my friends really did cheer me up a whole lot. =)

We went for dinner later in the evening in Sailor's restaurant. Love the atmosphere. The food was awesome. And the cheese tart ZiBin bought for me as a cake was S.U.P.E.R.Y.U.M.M.Y. =)

[Happy birthday Eeleen!]

[The girls. =)]

 [The limited edition boys in my course. =)]

Feeding people in many cultures, is a sign of appreciation. So that was what I did. I fed every single one of them. But could only post up some of the pictures here ya. =)

 [Super shy Kaang Cheing. Haha.]

 [& my ever annoying roomie. X)]

Thanks you people!! I really, really appreciate what you did for me..=)
*BIG hugs*

& CK got me a mini cooper model as a birthday present with my number 39 and my name signed on top of the car. Imagine if the car was real!! Woooootsss!!! =) 

[Thank you CK.....]

 [Mr. Big Lips (from Lavinia) with Mini! =)]

 [& this card came all the way from Penang!!! Thank you karyee. =) It's a Birthday Wonderland!]

There's still another pending birthday present from my coach. Will blog about it when it finally arrives. Heheheeee. =)

Let me see...what else happened this month...*Thinking thinking*
OH!!!!!!!!!!! I finally went to the dentist!!! =) ALMOST fainted in the hospital. HAHA. No la..just exaggerating. =)
The nurse told me I had to take the tooth out just because the pain keeps reoccuring. Listen carefully ya. It's the nurse who told me. Not the dentist. So they scheduled a minor operation surgery for me on the 4th of April. And I AM SO NOT CONVINCED WHY I SHOULD GO FOR IT. X[ Hmmmp!!

And I ordered my Salming Cypher-Z blade already. Wanna try something new while saving for a new stick. =) Can't wait for it to arrive!

Last but not least, I am signing up for my first marathon of 2011 very soon. The Borneo International Marathon!!! =) I'm doing a half marathon, which is 21km. Phew! Wonder if I could make it. =)

I'm not joining it to compete since it's my first time. But I want to finish it within the time limit and feel a sense of accomplishment, and receive the finisher's medal. I'm putting my faith in the Lord to finish this race. =)

Lovely December

Hey peeps! Here are some pictures to show you how I spent my December. And I would say that year 2010 was one of the best years of my life, and the past December was just wonderful. =)

But but but..before that,  I just wanna show you pictures of me doing indoor rock climbing for the very first time!! Hehe. I've actually been to the real rocks before but not an indoor one. =) It was totally fun. Muscles were badly aching after that but it was all worth it.
For the sake of nicely toned arms and legs. =)

[My coach as my belayer]

 

Okay okay..about December. =) I went back to Penang for a short break during the past December 'cause I promised daddy that I would always go back for Christmas if I could. So I kept that promise for year 2010. =)

We went to the Penang Pesta. It's been more than 10 years since we last went so we just dropped by to see if there were any changes lo.. Manatau still the same old stuff. Haha. =) I remember vomiting in Pesta the last time we went 'cause I got really dizzy after one of the rides. Hehe.

[The only ride we took 'cause my dad said less risk. Haha. & to prevent me from vomiting too la. =)]

[Stupid stall games. Spent RM30 and got two fake Nike badgets. Haha.]

 [But then I really like this stall 'cause it's so colorful!! =) I'm memang a sucker for colorful things. =)]

[Dad throwing darts. Missed by one. If not we could have gotten one of those ugly Doraemon. Hehe.]

[And look at these poor teddies. Like mass hanging execution. T.T]

 

And for the Christmas that just passed, instead of buying gifts for friends, I baked cookies for them instead. It was like a cookie Christmas. =)

[The main baker - Mommy! =)]

 [This is also her trying to be funny. Haha. Cute leh.]

 [Ginger bread man cookie]

 

 [Burnt baby elephant. Ooopss.]

 

[My my..look who's helping us with the cookie designs. Haha. =)]

 [Taaadaaa!!! Cookies made out of love. =)]

Last but not least, here's a few Christmas present I received which I really, really like. God must have told them I needed these. Haha. =) But anyhow..thank you so much. And most of all, thank you Jesus. For loving me.

[Daddy bought me this Nokia E72 after he failed to convince me to get iphone 4. I wanted to get this phone on my own after I started working but then..Thank you D. Mwah!! =)]

[Karyee got me this. =) It's a Wrist ID so that if anything happens to me on the street while running, the first responder would know who to call. =) This is very important for those who likes to train alone like me. Thanks babe.]

 For more information, check out www.roadid.com. I haven't really got the thing yet. Still waiting for me to choose what color and what to engrave on the aluminum plate. =)

 [& My coach gave me this for Christmas. It's a sports necklace where it helps to better regulate your blood circulation and helps to recover from muscle pain & tiredness.]

[How effective it is I don't know. Some say it's just a mental thing. But oh well, I shall try it out and let you guys know okay? =)]

[& Kevin gave me this cute little Patrick lego keychain!! =) I grew up with Lego and Lego toys are probably the only thing I kept until now. So Patrick's gonna be my new additional Lego family member. Hehe.]

I ended the year by attending church's Watch night service. =) Did a duet together with Melissa, singing "Who Am I" by Casting Crowns.

[The dinosaurs: woan sein, eeleen, theresa, sara, ayen, & melissa]

'Cause who am I, that the Lord of all the earth, would care to know my name, would care to feel my heart.

Despite how insignificant we think we are, God chose to love us. And that's the only thing we need to remember, that He loves us.

Will upload pictures of the Christmas event our church held in the next post. =) Wait for it.
