2011 comes to an end..

Yes, it’s that time of the year every year where I celebrate birthday, 冬至, Christmas and New Year holiday-package-combo in just almost a week. Ain’t it fun? This time around I didn’t get to spend it with my usual group of ppl. But I thank Gerviene, Shih Lin, Rachel, Youming and Soo Huan for spending my b’day with me. It was MUCH better than spending it all cooped up in my room alone…most probably sleeping or watching shows… Lol… And my presents… Hehe… I totally love all the sincere cards and practical gifts for me. I think I’m at that age where I get all sentimental receiving written wishes and blessings... Lol.. Few years from now, I’ll probably get all mushy and cry looking at my gifts… And further down the road…..

Hahahaha…. I can almost imagine this progressive evolvement change…. LOL!!!

THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!

On another note, this was our fully DIY gift box for Youming!!! Everything, the gift contents inside, our b’day card, and the box was handmade!! Inside out!! SO proud!!! Looks oh-so-fine doesn’t it?? And yes, to prove the authenticity of our creativity and sincerity, you can see one part without the wrapper. Haha… Sign of it being genuine. And her gift?? Weighs by the kilogram. Lol… What is it you ask?? Well…. That shall be a funny memory and secret for Rachel and I…

So yup, everyone, have a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

PS I’m on study break for my upcoming exams yet I’m travelling to Sabah few days from now!! I think I should refrain from going anywhere else.. But then, the fact that I’m in KL now is SOMEwhere in itself… O Lord, help me to study well for the exam?? Yet…. I’ll go play 1st for now!!

I’m real blessed!

     I’d have to admit first that I had quite a huge number of missed dental appointments for the last 2 years, but this year had been good. The previous 2 years wasn’t bad too though. I had so many nice and kind patients. Patients who appreciate what you’ve done for them, patients who are responsible and comes on time knowing how it helps us help them, patients who treat me as their child/ grandchild. I’ve had patients bringing me tens of fruits each time she comes, I’ve had patients bringing me kuih in the morning knowing I oversleep and skips breakfast sometimes, that same patient giving me ang pow for CNY, fresh vegetables from the garden, and even paid for a meal out. I’ve had patient who thank me so many times I feel embarrassed for not doing a better or faster work for them (not to say my job was slow or sloppy, or not to my best ability. I ALWAYS give my patient excellent dental service. Hehe.)

    My patient today is was (still is??)a dental phobic. Scared of needles, scared of the sound of drills, scared of the overhead light, scared of too much water in the mouth. But when I told her how she was much better with the drillings and the needle and everything today, she said, “ Well, coz I trust in you a lot, and you’re an awesome dentist.” Wow. Talk about being sweet! Even when I gave an inferior alveolar nerve block which she said is scarily painful the last time she had it and closed her eyes, tight, anticipating the pain, it ended with her not feeling pain at all. Hehe. Not that my technique was better but she trusts me more I think. So proud of myself.

    So yes, I am truly grateful for all the nice patients I had, and those currently under my care. It was a real memorable journey thus far and I shall push forth with my best foot forward (my left I think..hahaha…) until I become a Dr and even further down the path of life!! I am truly a blessed gal!!

PS Sorry aikmunn, I had patients that you wished you had. Hehe. (Whoops, sorry for the hehe…)

Oh yeah, as an after note, these were pasted along the corridors by our changing rooms in the dental building. Real nice isn’t it?? I hope all kids would know now how dentists are not so scary as they think and that we’re normal, nice ppl too!! Lol…

Great teeth for great smiles posters

나 건들지말라요!

완전 화나서!! 너진짜…너무나쁜사람이아!!! 진짜싫어 !  

Starting on a more melancholic mood, this is my current feeling and progress

Hehe, funny but totally true.

On another happier note, happy birthday Wai Yan!! I know you won’t read this but still.. I had a really good time in Edo Ichi that night. And….I look awesome that day too… *proud and not shy about it!!* Hehe…

Me, Rachel and b’day girl-Wai Yan

Shortest post!

Tis’ a week to celebrate! (Update done! There, I’m so proud!!)

Prof Hong ginseng chicken soup Korean shop…again!!

   If you’ve read my previous post, you’d have noticed that I’ve nothing but praise for this shop… I mean, the food is unbelievably good, the service is unbelievably fast, the price is reasonable and the owner there is unbelievably nice so, if I don’t go for it again since I’m back in KL would be…. UNBELIEVABLE right?? Hehehe… Also the fact that the owner always says I’m pretty and gives us extra food…. Lol….. Do do do do do go check it out ppl if you’re in Ampang Korean village… I’m like the unofficial food ambassador around….

      Suddenly remembering that the last time we went, my dad had to skip watching a football match (without supporting his team) in order to eat with us and this time, it happened again… Haha… I have this ability to choose when to eat whenever his favourite team is playing… Who by the way, lost again this time…. So yes, I spared him the heartache…. again….. Hahahaha….

       Oh, there’s a fun fair around my place since just last week!! yay!! I’ve never been to one since ages ago and we didn’t go to the one in SP after our movie night for Real Steel (which is an awesome show!!!) so I’m so excited!!  And found the place so stuffy and full of ppl smoking cigarettes I might as well stand behind a lorry exhaust pipe… Sheesh… Such a disappointment… And boy, aren’t the tokens getting expensive!! It costs RM4 to get on any ride or play any booth games!! Total cutthroats!! Ended up not doing anything but went one round sucking in smokes… and sweat… EWWWW….. Hahaha…. Oh well, at least I can say, I went to a fun fair recently… Kekeke…

 


So yeah, that’s it for now…. Gonna show you my new look after my salon trip??


My look as of now…


What should I do with my hair though ppl, any ideas??

Grateful

There’s so many things to thank God for just at the top of my head I’m bursting with gratefulness!! This week has been nothing but good…. Thank you x100000000!!! I’m sure all things will go well this year, it’s so exciting!!
So do let us not miss Your wave!! It’s gonna be worse than missing one’s own wedding…. *Which I hope I won’t… Better plan mine in the evening in case I overslept.. Lol…*

On another note, sigh, I should have should have should have… I’m missing by one…. What should I do to collect it?? Hmm…

PS This post is so cryptic only my mum will understand it… Hehe… Others who do, well, shh, let’s keep it this way?? Lol…..

Deviled eggs

      After my successful try on oatmeal chocolate and butterscotch soft cookies last time, I’ve had my try on deviled eggs this time…. It’s really easy actually, get hard boiled eggs, pepper, bacon, ham, mixed herbs, paprika powder, and mayonnaise and you’re done!! The recipe is very easy and the ingredients?? Optional… You can make do with just mayo and eggs I guess.. Only, the taste would be…. Egg salad only like…. Lol…. Oh wells, I think I do have a bit of a talent in cooking!! Haha… Think I did inherit some awesome traits from my Super-Wonder-mum!!!!! *wink wink* (mummy, if you do read this, you ARE terrific!!! Hehe….)

     I made two plates of these and it was literally gone in minutes!! So proud… And yes, looks doesn’t matter, taste does alrights?? Hahaha… Ok ok, fine, both are important but I didn’t get to chill them enough… So yes!! I forgot to mention, chill them hours before bringing it to parties!!!! REMEMBER!! Freeze them if you have to!!!! Lol….

PS With me having flu and cough, I’m thankful I didn’t poison anyone with too much spices since the sprinkle of paprika and herbs is well, a sprinkle of my hands here and a sprinkle there and well, more sprinkles here and there…. Lol…..

Itchy hands off!!

I’ll leave this post at the title to reader’s (yes, you) imagination….

…and will be at high risk getting misunderstood with nonsense like
“you met a pervert??!!!” huh??

Hahaha… No lar!!! It’s just that in dealing with Airasia, my itchy fingers took life on their own and cost me some loss in money and time, much gain in frustration, anger and even…. hatred… Yup ppl, but no worries, I’ve unlashed my bottled up emotion and vent it to poor unsuspecting innocent Rachel… Lol… Sorry…. *Who’s not poor…or innocent though… Hahaha… We’ve attained enlightenment in being indifferent after all* But all’s well now so I’m back to normal…….-ish….. Hehe….

And dear milky SX, if you’re reading this now….*SX kicks, punches and lashes out at being called just that* haha… Let’s test this out!!! You start your journey to the north-south while I’ll travel east-west and THEN let’s see whether we’ll finally meet at some intersection point alright?? Our miraculous parallelism must should be experimented!!! Our timing –the lack of it- must be kinda, somehow rare….. Lol….

Last year, fifth gear!!

     Can’t believe it’ll be my last year as a dental student… I still remember those memories from 5 years ago and here I am, 5 years later… looking exactly the same… Hehehe… (I highly doubt it….As a bonus, enclosed photos below!! )

     Just came back SP for a few days and gonna go back KL again in a week plus for the Raya holiday… Am already missing KL and its food… *drools* Sad that I can’t go Jogoya though but then hey, I can always go there again next time right?? RIGHT?? RIGHT???!!!! Haha…. There’d better be patients for my clinics next week or else… “Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned” *Thunder rumbles at the background* Hehehe…. Oh wells, just a short update since I’m lazy and wanna go back to my dramas now so… Adios!!

Me 5 years ago..somewhat…. Gave it the nostalgic feel… Hehe…

Toldcha I still look the same!! Hehehehe…..

Trip to Prof Hong Ginseng Chicken Soup Restaurant-Ampang

So yes, if you’ve been following my blog, you’d know that my last post was on one spring chicken… *Lol* Well, my family and I went there on Saturday night to try out the place.. Since I’m such a Korean crazed fan, you’d better trust my judgement on all things Korean… from a local Malaysian standpoint of course… =p

     My dad was kinda reluctant to go at 1st since he wanted to watch Malaysia-Singapore fight it out on the football field but then, anything for his daughter right?? *Aww…..* Btw, I’ve managed to reserve a place using Korean without stammering, a great feat huh?? Hahaha… But I got caught anyways since the boss’ wife went out to see me coz I can speak Korean so well… *Sigh, busted…* But she gave us 2 Kimchi fried rice for free since I’m very pretty!!! Woohoo!!!! Hey, her words, not mine…. *So happy I can fly off* But almost every other Korean either says I have “Korean features” or else I’m pretty… Therefore, I conclude that Koreans have an affinity for my face!!!! Hahahahaha…. Ok, ok, lame but I guess they like my baby face… ( According to my younger sister’s friend… Imagine hearing that from someone younger by 10 years…. =.=” ) Oh wells, at least they didn’t say anything negative so…

   About the food, I AM so IN LOVE with this place!!!! Everything was so to my taste I can’t believe it!! The ginseng chicken soup would be bland to others but since I’m such an advocate for healthy food if it’s a choice so, OH YEAH, this place is !!! Other than the octopus stew noodle which was not my thing, all others were so nice I can’t say anything bad about them… Usually, we would be on our 2nd round of side-dishes before our main dishes come out but this place was so fast we haven’t even tasted the kimchi and the main food came steaming out, literally!! And the waiters?? Friendly and customer conscious… Totally make you feel at ease and so quick on their feet you need not ask them for anything…. It’s like they were trained so perfectly they can read minds… Lol….

    Conclusion is, I’m gonna come back here again and again!!!! Honestly, do give it a try, it’s my newest favourite Korean place right now!! 2nd would be Zen which is also nearby…. Do ask me about more information k?? I’d be glad to share!!!!

I’ve fallen…

….. in love….

NOT!!!!!! Hahaha…. Though I’m sure many of you thought and maybe hoped for it to be true, but nah…. What I’ve fallen on is the bandwagon of online shopping…. Before this, I’m nothing but against online shopping, banking, etc coz it’s not safe, information is easily leaked, website could be hacked, lots of spams online etc… Till I found…..

Mr. Samgyetang!!!

Or also known as Korean ginseng chicken soup.. Sigh…. Yeah, ppl, I’ve thrown away all inhibitions and negativity…. for a chicken…… Hahahaha…. It's for this online coupon deal thingy…… I can’t believe it too… Like :”WHAT???!!!!” right? Hahaha….. I’ve been tempted by so many previous things before like clothings, accessories, contact lenses, shoes but I’ve managed to resist them all….. And in the end, I’ve lost to a spring chicken…. *ROFL* Oh wells, this better be one heck of a swell chicken soup!!!! 

To teachers around the world

If any one of you were to see the way I study“study” for our important finals, I think you’d be sent to the hospital… immediately.. to the Emergency Department…. Lol… And then you see Rachel and I combo…. You’d be flying to see your Maker soon….  Hahaha…. Jokes aside, I know I need to gear up yet I can’t seem to start my engine powerfully…. Someone, please fill me up with some much needed oil please?? Hehehe…

What am I doing..?

4th year’s finals are coming and I’m still here… Pining to meet you…again… I’m not studying as I should, I’m overspending like I should not… by a lot… Sigh… Izzit just me or am I too old to study already now huh? And after this really troublesome period is over, then comes the final year hurdle… The never-ending clinical quotas to fill which I think I’m lagging very very much behind.. And if I do managed to somehow finish that, I have no idea where they’ll post me to… Heck, I don’t even know where I want to get posted to for my government service… O Lord, help me!!! Hehe… Oh wells, one step at a time right?? Sigh…

PS I miss you all, U6C… Whoever’s reading this….

Awesome Sabah trip

Went for Community Oral Health posting last week to Sabah, a land I wish really much to visit again, BUT, hopefully not for the 3 years government service.. Hehe… It’s been my second visit there and I’ve YET to climb Mount KK… Lazy*ahem*rear gear, you’ve got to gear up real soon dear… lol.. Putting that aside, Sabah is a seriously nice place to be at.. It has everything in KL, well, almost, that you need in a much more relaxed state… Time just moves reeeeeEEEEEEAAAAALLLLL slow here…Case example:

Day 1-after finishing our formal business
Person 1: hey, it’s just 5 plus, wanna go out for dinner and shop a bit??
Everyone: Well, sure, since we have nothing on for the rest of the day anyways..
Went for the night market near the Filipino market, bought fruits, snacks, souvenirs, ate a wholesome seafood dinner with whole big coconuts and walked home
Person 2: I’ll bathe 1st!!
Person 3: Next is me!!
etc etc pre bed rituals…
Person 4: *yawns* I’m so sleepy, it’s gotta be 10-11pm now right??
Person 5: Duh, there’s 7 girls and 2 boys fighting for TWO bathrooms.. The waiting time itself is gonna be crazy long k?
Person 4: I guess so..
Person 6: Oh my gosh!! Guess what ppl, it’s not even 8pm yet!!
Everyone: You’re totally kidding right??
*checks watches, handphones for time frantically*
Everyone- *Eyes opened so wide it’s almost humanly impossible*

LOL… Real life story, people!! The next few days after that we shopped at Centre Point, went McDonalds, went for yumcha sessions, night markets etc and no matter what, it will never be over 10pm when we reached home.. And this is us WALKING everywhere… and after SUPPER… Ended up all the night owls in our group cleaned up their acts and slept early for a week… The POWER of Sabah…. Hahaha….
I think it’s because of the way the sun rises up at 5am plus and sets around 6pm… I thought we were late for our clinic visit the 1st day when I saw the day so bright outside our window and everyone still sleeping soundly when it was, can you believe it, 6am++ It’s been ages since I woke up at that time… And even then I needed my dad to shake me awake..Lol.. I miss those days….

So yup, here’s a quick introduction to Sabah!!

Here’s to the great times I’ve had with Zi Wei, Rachel Lee, Qi Shan, Su Hean, Agnes, Chin Kai, Jo En, Youming, cheers!!! A BIG shoutout to Andy Shu, Narjit, and our two drivers… Without you, it’s impossible for the trip to be this memorable.. Thank YOU!!!!

And finally, what’s my blog for if not a place for me to act cute a bit huh?? It is after all, MY blog right? Hehe…

Ahh moments

     Looking at the photos of people stranded and victims injured or dead during Japan’s earthquake and tsunami in print and hearing the cries of shock, disbelief and terror on footage over the weekend makes me feel really grateful…  Ahh… It is truly home sweet home after all…

     And then you spot Datuk Lee Chong Wei’s radiant smile as he lifts up the much coveted All-England men’s singles trophy.. Ahh.. We still have that harimau spirit burning in us yet. Malaysia ^still boleh!!

     Had a great weekend with my family again in Penang and Alor Setar so ahhh…. How I wish I can do this every week… It was so fun, relaxing and nice….

     Then thinking back at times where I had complained just a tiny bitsy bit on this and that, I came to see… I guess though one can’t change the world, one’s mindset can change one’s world so… Ahh… I can still find some ways to change my world to see the world huh??

And then lastly…

Ahhh… It’s back to school again… Oh, the anti climax….

Diva

I hear that I’m a diva… Izzit a good thing or a bad thing?? Hmm… Do spam me ppl, I’m diva-ing to know… Lol…

Mix & match

    Oh dear me.. It’s been so so long since I’ve last written so here goes a mesh-up of stuffs… Hehe… Let’s see, it’s been since Chinese New Year that I haven’t posted so spare me for this super backdated post… 
     Some of the dishes my super mum made for 团圆餐..yum.. Scallops baked in cheese, fried butter prawns, 4 seasons, sharkfin soup etc.. There were say 7-8 dishes on the table that day but since I was too hungry, I dug into and ate the food without finishing taking pictures of them all… Hahaha….. Whoops…

      So then I’ll jump off to what’s happening recently in our dental faculty, our annual ADSAlympics where everyone is forced to squeeze out their sporty talents no matter how big or small to do something for their batch.. As for me, I have no sports juice in me whatsoever so I’m in funny events like cheerleading, chess, lontar peluru and tug-of-war.. LOL… I do think it’s rofl-material to take part in these events in a sports competition.. Sigh… Oh wells, do what we can when we can right?? Hehe.. We lost this year in cheer though… *cries* But then, to be able to pull off everything with just 2 weeks of practice is a feat big enough so… at least we look hot don’t we?? Hahahaha…. To the other batches, you all did an amazing job too!!! *applause*

To end this post for now, just wanna show you the latest addition to SP Village Mall… Macaroons!!!! Can’t believe they opened a French pattisiere here… (⊙o⊙) It IS happening here in SP after all!!!

PESD(post-exam-stress-syndrome)?? *fr PTSD*

     After our exam ended 2 weeks ago, I’ve been in a dazed and confused mode… It’s like we’re all locked in a parallel world between two universe, not able to focus on anything!! We’reI’m not 100% in ourmy studies or clinics, and till now I feel like I haven’t recover from exam yet… It’s not that we didn’t enjoy, (I kinda overdid that part a bit even,) hehe, but it’s just so hard not to keep yearning and craving to get back home straight!! Argh.. Hate this kinda waiting, no wait, I dislike ANY type of waiting actually.. lol..

     Oh wells, in the meantime, I’m swept up by the Secret-Garden-Korean-series waves!! Such a nice romance-comedy show with its uniquely funny story plot and awesome main leads(read=hot, handsome and pretty casts!!)  Too bad it ended too soon… Loved it so very much!!! Please do go watch it if you haven’t already??!! Go go go go GOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

     So yup, next up we’ll be very busy and hardworking for cheerleading again this year!!! Wish us the best so we can beat the rest alrights?? Hehehe… This is coming from us who haven’t even thought about the choreography of the cheer for the competition which is in say less than 3 weeks time away?? Optimistically unrealistic huh, dear old Batch 3?? Haha.. But I still firmly believe we’ll make it!!!
