CNY celebration!!!

I’m so HAPPY this whole week because it’s Chinese New Year-CNY!!!! Other than food, food, food and more food, there’s fun, fun and much more fun!!!! Okay, the downside being gaining pounds which I shall have to shed soon and being an inactive couch potato with a bigger butt…But then hey, it’s CNY!!!!! Whee!!!!!

So yes, eating out is the norm during festive holiday season but I shall dedicate this post to what my mum cooked during this period. I’m telling you it’s 10-stars standard, people!!!  So proud of her…(And also she’ll stop cooking if I don’t show some appreciation… ROFL… Just kidding!!!! She has such dedication and awesome cooking skills, and has been cooking for us since when we were young so all of my siblings n I grew to abnormal Asian height… I mean, I’m a girl and I’m taller than 5’7’’!!! Hmm…. Well, I shall ask her to write a cook-book entitled “Food for Growth..Literally!!” soon.. Any interested buyers?? I shall offer a discounted price to the 1st 10 buyers with her signatures on the cover. Is that a good deal or what??)

1st day of CNY-

Another day-




So yes, I can’t recount the times in the past others had ask my siblings and I what did my mum fed us to be so tall and healthy.. We never knew how to answer then since we just, well, ate, but now that I looked at just the pictures, hey, no wonder!!! Lol… It’s true that pictures speak a thousand words!!!

This is for you mummy, you’re the BEST among over the best!!!!

Post exam holiday!!

Let me start off this happy post by saying, we finished our one week of exam!!!!
…..and……
jumped straight to play-mode!!! Woohoo!!! Just after finishing our last paper, which is a practical assessment with live stations,  we didn’t even wait to rest and went to have a fun time in Penang with roller-blading,(which I suck at sadly, just like ice-skating. Lol. There’s just something wrong with me on movable shoes. LOL) food and movie!!!








Me looking very happy in the car on the way to  Penang..  Yay!!! You can feel my excitement right?? Hahaha…

As if travelling from Sp to Penang, from Penang back to SP wasn’t enough, we went from SP to Perlis the next day. Talk about 瞬间移动！ Hehe… 

It was my first time being there and I’m having such a blast relaxing in Rachel’s super big house!!! I thought I was gonna get lost in her house alright?? It was THAT big!!! Haha, ok, fine, exaggerating a bit but it’s real big!! @.@ *Wide eyes*

So yes, the group of us comprising of Rachel, Youming, Gary, Kai Xin, Yee Wen and I went all over the place in Perlis having fun. We even went near the border and got some duty free chocolates. Okay, by some, I meant a hundred plus ringgit for me. If not for not having enough cash on me, I think I would have gone even more crazy. Lol.. I mean, check out what I bought!! Confirmed shopaholic. *stamp of authenticity*

Even bought myself a cute bag.. I got this bag because of that bear…. Hehehe… Cute right??? It was calling out to be adopted by me I’m telling you!!! Lol…So yeah, if you know me, you’d know I can’t stray far from food so check out the food we ate!!! Do drop by for some special Perlis ‘ikan bakar’ by the beach.. Mm mm!! You could even take a ferry to the Langkawi island just beside the stretch of restaurants..
In conclusion, this is how I spent my time after the exams!! You say it’s not much of a difference than how I spent my time before the exam?? Well….. Bingo!!! You got that right!!! Hahaha…. Oh wells, what can I say, 'whoops, I did it again’?? Lol…

How the Lees spent Dec 11'

Before I start this post, please be forewarned that you might feel a tinge of jealousy or envy reading this or otherwise, feel yourself mildly salivating due to the food presented. All costs of reading further must the readers bear. You are warned.

LOL… So yes, wanna show you my mum’s cooking skill 1st. Presenting to you,
The Lees family Christmas meal!!! Woohoo!!!

Now now, this is just the start!! I AM myself jealous of…well, ourselves.. Lol… Oh, how oh how long must I take this journey of cooking before I gain enough experience to cook like my mum?? You’re awesome mummy!!!

Okay, then straight after celebrating Christmas, we flew to Sabah for our family trip!!! I’ll just let the photos speak for themselves!!

Wonderful right??? Hehehe… This is how we Lees party!!! Had great fun over the month…. But… *ba ba bam*

Now that I’m back…reality starts to sink in…. Oh dear, when am I gonna start studying for my exam????!! *gasp* Haha….

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??
