My Blog

Today is a Sunday, November 9th… You know what? I’m married for 2 months already. Legally married but no ceremony yet… Everyone around been asking when is the big day? all I said is next year haha… but i’m already married actually hehe… felt a bit funny… but of coz i know they were asking for the ceremony… Well it’s all depends… as chinese ppl saying that after CNY only can choose which date is good for me and my hubby to do the ceremony… so at this moment we can’t do much thing but to wait… more over now my hubby is still in Japan… I miss him dearly, becoz haven’t seen him for more than 3 weeks already… well is his job, so got no choice but to wait for him to return… althought the ceremony is like another year from now, maybe, but still i feel very kan cheong hahaha… so exaggerating, you may think but is true haha… well that is about my married life so far… Actually I don’t feel much that i’m married becoz i’m still staying with my parent… Nothing much about my wedding yet…

And today is going to be another nanny routine for me. Baby Marcus is now sleeping next to me in my room… and as for Nicole, Danielle and Sean are all down stairs… Is raining heavily outside but still i feel like going out… so chilly in my room but i’m still so awake…

I went to Shanghai and HK for holiday at the beginning of this month… Shanghai, things are cheap there and food are not bad if you know where to eat… Went to this restaurant name Jade Kingdom or Jade Garden i can’t rember the name but the food there was not bad… and also Huyi where serve Hunan food, didn’t know hunan food were so yummy… hmmm thinking about it makes me drool… Shanghai got quite a lot of nice place… like Xin Tian Di, Nan Jing Road etc etc… This was my second time in Shanghai… After the first time i went, was like 6 yrs ago i though i will never go to Shanghai again becoz I don’t like the environment and also the food… Back then was horrible and we follow the tour and imagine that everyday you change hotel and your things have to be in your luggage all the time for standby… everyday waking up around 5am then to get ready and head to another place… The scenary are good but not the food and also the dirty washroom… I don’t understand how can they do the business in the toilet without closing the door… yeeeewwww think about it makes me feel so yucky but that was 6 yrs ago… but this trip was good coz my dad know Shanghai quite well so he bring us to lots of nice place… like Xin Tian Di is a place with a lot of bars and pub… the place is nice and also the live band is not bad too… We also went to “Shanghai Than”  don’t know what do you call that place in english… very nice scenary… the only thing that not so good was air polution, dirty toilet and crazy taxi driver other than that all good… if given a choice, i will still go to Shanghai…

And about HK hmm things are about the same… not cheap though but the food is so so… The day when were in HK is actually near to Halloween… of coz you may see some Halloween deco… We went to Lan Kwai Fong on Halloween and we see lots of things… lots of ppl that dress up for the halloween… i do notice that they willing to dress their kids up too… I saw lots of cuties with their costume… even when they hardly walk they already with their costume… i saw this cute lil batman… he is soooo adorable… also this lil Vampire, lil pumpkin, lil Spider and lots more… they really grab my attention… then most of them having a trick and treat basket with them… giving out some sweets… I took quite a bit of photos of them but yet post them up… will do it someday hehe…

The best things is i have my sis who flew from aus to meet us up… Really enjoy the trip…  Just unfortunate that my hubby can’t come with us or else it will be perfect… Lately my blog are quite funny becoz i wrote most of the things in one… not focusing in any but all in haha… so be patient with me ya… hugsss

Wow it’s been half year since the last time i wrote…  It’s about time to do some updates… first of all, I want to write those I remembered and made me giggles… Kids are really adorable… I guess, you all know that my house got a new comer… Baby Marcus was born 2 months ago… He looks absolutely cute with his short curly hair… he also got a seductive dimple on his cheek… soooo cute… would love to post some of his picture but at the moment don’t have it on my pc… will do it next time… and as the 3 musketeers in my house who always argue, mess up the room and today they also pulled down the curtain in my tv room… luckily their grandpa and grandma still on holiday or else i think ma and pa will faint after seeing their work…opss i must correct only Sean and Danielle… they love to argue but at the same time they will miss one another if they didn’t see each other for hours… then will start asking me "kor kor, do you see sean ko ko or danielle or nicole mei mei"… oh yea yesterday i switched on the tv and the program came out was my parent’s favorite drama and guess what my niece said… Nicole told me "kor kor, that is ah ma’s tv" @.@ she don’t know how to say drama so she just said tv, hehe… i knew what she was trying to tell me =)… cute isn’t it hehe…  and after that i called my sis in aus… spoke to ma and pa for a bit… miss them soooo much… also spoke to my sis and her 2 lil cuties… I think both of the 2 lil ones already picked up their aussie accent… Kinda hard to understand them… Imagine "accent + baby language" bad combination hehehe… You know what? I’ve never been to an excursion before on all my schooling days and my lil nephew Sean who is not even 5 yet went for excursion yesterday… They went KLCC… It just remind me of Shin Chan hahaha… Have you seen the cartoon Crayon Shin Chan? or "La pat siu sang" you call it? Shin Chan always got excursion… Sean is so lucky huh… Have you been to one?

Oh yea i want to take this opportunity to say Thanks to my Darling JJ, my buddies Teng, Mae, Anny and Kitson and also dear dear’s family for celebrating my birthday with me… As for my family member hmm will wait till ma and pa come back then we shall have a good dinner…

Other than all that family stuff there are also some good and bad news… good news hmm will tell later hahaha =P… bad news is my RA doesn’t look good these few days… Sigh… hopefully will gets better soon… so many things to do… office got lots of pending job… and myself also got many things still pending… because of all the unfinished things i can’t take sometime off for holiday… just pray that everything will move smoothly and get to finish quickly… that’s all the bad news… and the good news is hmmm having my family, my darling, my buddies and my friends in my life everyday… that’s the good news hahaha… hmm what are you thinking? Still you agree with me isn’t it?  hahaha… cheeky elsie…well well will tell you more good news later… c ya…

Lately I’ve came across many many things in life that i don’t understand… some ppl just take things for granted especially money… I’ve seen ppl who gamble their life off as in use all the money that they have just to gamble it all away to the extend of running away from home or even suicide… why want to do so? I really don’t understand… Money is not everything in life is true but without it is also hard to survive isn’t it?

Today, I went to the bank to do something and the next counter there stand an old lady i think she is probably in her late 50s… and i misheard her conversation with the banker…there it goes the conversation, the banker ask her how much she wants to withdraw then she asked how much she left in her account… and guess what? she only have RM 70 plus in her account then she said she wants to withdraw RM 20… somehow i feel bit sad for her what sadden me more was that banker actually laugh when she said how much she want to withdraw… Sigh… those who have it don’t seems to appreciate it and those who need it don’t have it… oh well… don’t want to mention more already…

After so long i didn’t blog finally blog something sad again… today i want to have a mix blog as i lazy to start another one…

The last time i blog was like hmm months ago… let me share a lil about myself, other than the usual put on weight i finally found someone that i want to share my future together… things have been good just keep my finger cross that everything will be smooth… aiks sorry out the sudden from sad story to romantic pulak hehe…  can’t be blame when a woman in love… they will be bit more sensitive than usual… i mean "emotionally" sensitive muaahaha…

This year chinese new year was great… coz i still get lots of ang pao and got some from my darling’s side although I’ve not met his aunts still i got it hahaha… all thanks to my darling… yay lucky me… i think this year i get quite a bit of them but most of the ppl that gave me said the same thing "this is the last year already arr next year is your turn to give" x_x… where can!!??? isn’t the most happy thing during cny is to get lots of ang pao? Who came out this rules says after married cannot get ang pao? I wonder if i can have the new rules hahaha… sometimes is not how much the ang pao contain somehow feel happy of getting them… sounds like a lil girl isn’t it… but that is true… since i was young i already love cny not only get lots of ang pao, got reason to buy and put on new clothes and the most important thing is lots of COOKIES… yummy… only during cny will have lots of different cookies… nice especially the almond cookies… well lots that went in to my tummy also lots that came out on my face arrrgghhh why sooooo unfair… isn’t it should be in and out another place haha… eeeewwww disgusting… ok that’s enough of my blog… the more i go i think you can imagine where else i will go to haha… alritey till then….

Now only i realize that i actually stop so many months for not blogging… well been busy with lots of things like pak tor, travel etc etc… finally i got a bit of time and inspiration to write again hehe… sounds like a writer haha… i think ever since i know how to drive i never stay home for 4 days without going out and everyday hibernating in the room… hmmm i feel kinda strange that i can actually stand it haha… i guess i got no choice but to stay in this time… i just hope my knee gets better soon :(…

Today i feel lonely as my parent is in oversea, darling in Japan, maid went back to Indonesia and brother went out with his family… house is so empty… and my feeling was empty too… got and invitation to a friend’s house warming but can’t get to go as i can’t walk much sigh… and tomorrow have to missed a wedding dinner because of the same reason… arrrgghhh sorry babe couldn’t attend… very unfortunately can’t see this beautiful bride…

I think after spending 4 days in the house i know life can be very bored to sit around and do nothing… and the only thing i do is to spend so much time surfing the net, chatting on msn, playing with my nieces and nephew and also poker on facebook… lucky Anny came and visit me… or else i will be so so bored… sometimes is very weird… with your partner or family next to you, you won’t bored staying in… just with one extra person, the moment of being at home is so different… immediately you know there’s comfort when you need one… i guess i miss my parent lots and also my darling…

When i say miss i think there is lots more i miss like Melbourne, Japan hahaha… i really miss the moment there… i always love to travel it just feels good… feel free and there is no worry and discover a lot of things… there is lots places that i want to visit… i think i want to go to US once again and this time i hope is going to be California so that can visit some friends… i think i’m going nuts… because my blog is about so so many things… i think is because of too much of hibernation…

Now i feel lazy and tired… is about time to bed…. *yawn* good night……

Just came back from Melb 3 days ago… can you imagine i’m down with "jet lag" again? Everyone must be thinking "hey, come on only 2 hours different"… Those 2 hours don’t make a different to those who sleep at wee hour but it does make a different to those who sleep like 8pm aus time which mean 6pm msia time… I know I’m nuts to sleep so early but what to do… after taking care of the kids and doing the house chores will be tired and also the cold weather makes me sleepy… hahaha it sounds like i’m a nanny yet a maid there… is not that bad just helping around… the clumsy me hurt my shoulder when i vacuum the floor couple of weeks ago hehe… it was quite bad till i have to go and see a physio… so painful till i stop doing anything at home… i can’t even lift my right and also have to do everything with my left hand… thank god now is so much better already…

Today, suppose to be a busy day for me… i was planning to do so many things but all gone haywire after reach Sunway Medical Centre… I called SMC on saturday to make an appointment to see their Orthopedic and the smart receptionist told me that i don’t need an appointment when there is lots of orthopedic there in SMC… and she also said that i can go "ANYTIME" from mon till fri, 9am to 5pm so today i went at 11am and when i reached there they told me "Sorry, 2 of our orthopedics are busy" so i asked them how many orthopedics do they have… and you know what!! they got 6-7 of them and which is more than 5 is not available in the morning and will only come in at 2pm and also some only come in once a week… Can you imagine that!!! I mean they should tell their patient a more detail information instead of us going all the way there and see nobody and have to wait till 2.30pm… Is not only me the only one who couldn’t get to see them… i saw this old lady was telling the receptionist that she really need to see the doctor and all… and they fix her appointment on september… crazy… ok back to me… they are really testing my patience… so i got no choice and got caught up there for like few hours… luckily my buddy is free for lunch or else i really don’t how to kill my time… is really wasting my time… and the best thing is not about waiting… i went and see the orthopedic and all he do is lift my leg and press here and there on my knee… well that is fine but after that, all advise he gave me was… go and see the physio at LG… and when i ask him what shall i avoid on doing… obviously you can tell me not to do sports or anything but all he said is don’t walk so much… then he asked me do you climb up and down the stairs a lot and i said everyday and my house is a double storey so everyday i have to… guess what he said!! "GOT NO LIFT?" !!! i was like :S stunt and don’t know what to say… I’m so speechless… and he ends it with "see me 2 weeks later"… I really don’t understand, he is asking to refer everything to that physio yet he wants to see me again… i think i need second opinion… really don’t buy his words…

Sigh… after so long my blog was about complains… sometimes i feel better to pour all out…it just gets to my nerves… and i’m a bit blur now at 6.00pm msia time… sleepy… *yawn*… i’ll have to stop right here…

Time flies… I’m here for almost a month already… ever since annz left I’m back to my nanny job haha… So many things happened… like meeting lots of new friends, having lots of fun, do lots of shopping very nice getting all the cheap stuff haha… , eating lots too… hmmm soon soon will gain weight… i just can’t help it… when the weather is cold ppl tend to eat more… but still having my cough damn!! when are you going to go away from me soon i hope… even finish my bottle of cough medicine still coughing… hopefully get well soon… coz might go to lake mountain this weekend with my sis and her family… Luckily the trip to Mt buller with Mae also not too bad… snowing so badly then again we manage to build our little snowman… all thanks to my buddy who work so hard on it… although her hands was so painful still she never give up… wait till i get home and upload all the pic then everyone can get to see our snowman haha…

Hmmm i’m kinda tired now as already put that 2 darlings to bed… and i think i can’t type already… wanna catch a nap when they are napping… or else very fast you will see a panda when i come back to malaysia… ZZZZzzzzzz opsie can’t sleep now as i need to fold the clothes and also put some dirty clothes into the washing machine… nvm la… do it quick so can nap…

Elsie jia you!!

Let me start from the day that i reach… Got so excited this time in Melb coz I have a buddy that came with me… She’s been wanting to follow me to melb many times and this time she made it… Got to Melb on 9th June 2007 Sat morning, then waited for a bit to get out from the airport and head home right away… then rest for like 30 mins then my ma cook her famous pan mee… yum so so nice after so long finally get to eat it but unfortunately only once ma cooked it before she and dad leave Melb… then lunch we went to Richmond for Vietnamese Beef pho… another one that i’ve missed it so much… then went home and took a short nap, then have steamboat for dinner… can you imagine when the weather is so cold and you have steamboat, isn’t it super yummy? That was my first day then the next day as usual eat and eat… the following 2 nights dinner was really nice too we stay a night at Promenade Crown so we went to Koko’s and Silk for dinner… Those restaurant serve really nice food… Koko’s is a japanese restaurant and Silk is a chinese restaurant both also in Crown… then that was the first few days in Melb and on the 12th June, Me and Mae head to Sydney and look for Anny… We got there about evening and Jacky pick us up from the airport then we went to a Thai restaurant and while looking for parking there we saw 2 good looking and well build guys kissing at the back lane… hahaha not bad huh… Then we head home after dinner… unfortunately in Sydney was pouring for that few days so it’s pretty hard for us to get around…then meet up with a friend who stayed in Sydney for 9 yrs and he brought us to Orbit where a place you will be able to Sydney’s night view other than that Sydney tower… It’s a nice restaurant and it’s rotating… You can just go there for drinks…. nice and romantic place… good for all those couple haha… then went to darling harbour, opera house, the rock etc etc the usual famous places… and it’s kinda cold in Sydney to my surprise and guess what ? I left all my jackets in Melb so ended up have to use annz’s… Then came back to Melb on 16th June and went to Mt buller on the 19th June and snowing so badly and ballarat on the 20th June gosh pretty tiring… and tmr my buddy will head back to malaysia and will miss her… luckily annz is still around… that all so far… i’m too tired to continue typing… will update later… ciao…

Today is friday, 1st of June… is exactly another week i will be leaving the country again… Everything left unpack… not that busy at work although is the beginning of the month… maybe most of the things are quite settle… kinda free now so take a lil of my working time to just blog haha… today i’m feeling a bit weird on things… i think maybe time passes too quickly is like i don’t have the time to take a deep breath and it’s over haha… i’m listening to this song and i find the lyrics is quite true… a duet song sang by Jacky Cheung and Anita Mui "Seong Ngoi Han Nan" meaning is not easy to love, i think haha… Is like some people take love as a game… and it can be quite risky to be overly in love… becoz it may end up become enemy when things didn’t work out… how fickle can it be when you get the love yet you want freedom and when there’s assurance you were afraid that’s the end of your journey… when both of you are so in love, other people might envy so some girls or guys may try hard to win your partner… so no matter you are in the relationship or out of the relationship forget the past and move on… soon i’ll be leaving my office to meet my consultant to freeze my fitness account… how sad, coming three months will build fats haha… Anyway just a short entry… too free… so to all of you take care… if didn’t manage to meet up for the coming week will see you all in Aug… bye…

Today I went to Midvalley with my cousin… and guess what I found out?

Last Sunday I went to Crabtree to buy some product so coincident they have this so call "VIP member sales" so as usual girls will definitely take a look at all the things although they might not get it… and so coincident they have sales over their facial range and i do use their mask and one of the sales girl was trying hard to promote their mask and tell me how worth it when to buy now than later… so since I’m using it and find it quite alright so i intend to get it… and before i purchase i asked her when is the expiry date and she told me once you open, it is two yrs from that moment onward so i thought is fine… I also asked them a few times whether i can really keep it that long as I just opened a new bottle and use it… and firmly she said yes… so I bought it and today when i went there again with my cousin as she wants to try it and i found out something shocking… this time is the stall supervisor or a senior stuff you call it that serve us… and before we purchase we asked her again how long can we keep it and she said all face product can only keep for 2 yrs from the manufacturing date which dated Sept 2005… then again to double confirm we asked her if after 2 yrs means it do no good to the face and she said yes… then we take a look at few of the face products, guess what? The manufacturing date is all dated at Sept 2005 or Oct 2005… she said this range is all the same batch which means is all expiring soon… and to my surprise she said all the face product is expiring soon that’s why they have a promotion on it and give you a better deal… oh come on is that what a VIP member sales suppose to be? The best thing is, they will not mention to you that all this products is going to expired soon and even highlighted it before you purchase… and just now when i complained to her that her other colleague said different things and get us misunderstood what can we do… can we refund? she said they don’t do refund and for exchange is going to be 3 days from the date you purchase…can you imagine that? If today we didn’t go and get another one we will not know all this products is going to expired soon and thats why they area selling it cheap… Is not body range but is face… what if they product cause damages on the skin… who is going to be responsible on that? I can’t believe this is happening to a famous Crabtree… I’m so so disappointed… and the next time for you all who use their product or even on any other brands that doing promotion please be careful and check on their expiring date… sigh… even for us that checked also got cheated and the only explanation she gave was "Oh, that girl is new and she don’t know much" can you let a sales girl sell your products when she don’t know anything about your products? Is really ridiculous…

Is unfortunate for me and i don’t want you all to fall for the same thing… We don’t know what all expired product will harm our face or skin… Just a reminder for most of the face products expired in 2 years from the manufacturing date… As you can see the mfg date… so check them before buying it…

Sigh… a bit unlucky yesterday morning…  was on my way for yoga classes… met an accident near to my house as i always like to used that inner road and so call short cut to bukit tinggi…mum always complaint that i don’t want to use the main road… i thought it would be safe and faster but didn’t know the bikers there are freak who don’t stop at cross junctions… i didn’t notice him coming from the left side and in splits second just turn up and bang me on the passenger side… can you imagine a motorbike can do such damage? my car door can’t shut properly and both doors some more… From one junction to another is about 150 meters away and he also can speed like mad… sad to say i think maybe he got a broken leg by now… how dangerous… and he suppose to stop from his side and he didn’t…

I got shocked over the accident and i lost my phone cover… was shivering when trying to get help and i think at that point i just can’t remember where i drop it… guess is there at the accident scene but went and search couldn’t find it…

Last two weeks my dad drove my car also got bang by a trailer… can you imagine the car just came out from the work shop like 10 days or so and now going back in again sigh… a bit shitty… but thank god no injuries involve with me and dad on the accident… Everything is ok now… just need to send my car back to the workshop on monday
