taecyeon of 2PM

you know, i was never into all that super junior or kpop boyband craze before that. i don't get what is so attractive about them. BUT this Dream High drama made me go all crazy over Taecyeon. Btw, I think Dream High is a pretty good drama(prefer this to Glee) with all the friendship values and good voices and hot guys! i kinda like the storyline too.

After finishing all the episodes, i started to explore more vids on youtube about taecyeon. googled about him and all that. then only i knew he's from the kpop group 2PM, from there i also found out that Jay Park who appeared in Wongfu video was previously the leader of 2PM. Saw vids of him speaking English, damn good, well he lived in the States for a long time before he returned to Korea. omg, the vid of him holding his breath and swimming impresses me. He could hold his breath for so long and he can open his eyes underwater and smile to the camera. go youtube this!

hhahhaah! I just think he is hot and interesting, that's all. But Lee Seung Gi is still better =)

my 20th birthday

I've come to realise that so long as I'm not in Malaysia, i won't be able to celebrate my birthday with my family and high school friends. the last birthday i spent with my family and 'lao peng yous' was 2 years back when I was in HSC, it's as though i knew i wont be celebrating my birthday with them for a long time after that, so i requested for a birthday celebration at home..

My 19th birthday surprise was planned by my beloved sis with a bunch of IH people celebrating it for me, some whom i don't really talk much at all already, hahaahha! but there are a few whom i grew much closer to.

This year, everyone was sort of like separated since we're not staying in IH anymore, i thought "hmm, i shouldn't be expecting anything special whatsoever" but another side of me was like "hmm, maybe they will have a surprise for me?" Lucky me, my second thought came true. Erm, I did have a random guess like how the surprise was gonna turn out to be etc.. but Jane was really clever in covering it up.


*fast forward*(happened 2 days before my birthday) 2 days be  When i followed Jane to her kitchen to take my food, suddenly i heard "SURPRISE!!" i practically shouted and was surprised!! LOLOL!! They baked choc chip cookies and made a colourful card for me =) Most importantly, I got to blow birthday candles and make birthday wishes. To me, that's two most important thing that a person should get for his/her birthday. no need big celebration/surprise(though it'll be an added bonus), just let me blow my candles and make my birthday wishes, i'll be satisfied.


Later that night, we went for dinner at Madtongsan 2 for korean cuisine. i celebrated my birthday at madtongsan 1 last year, hahaha! I enjoyed the dinner with all the gossips and laughters. Other people were looking at our table cos we talked and laughed so loudly!

On my birthday itself, i did not do much since i already had an early celebration. received a call from Janice at 2am in the morning, i was already ZZzzzz like a pig d. Just replying to the FB wishes one by one. got wishes from people i don't really talked too, oh well, they're FB friends..hahahaha! Jane bought me my fav Japanese cupcakes, that came unexpected as well .

End of birthday video calling with my parents! =)

all my buddies who planned the surprise



Present from Jane. Jap green tea cupakes from 2in1 bakery! YUMSSSss



all the sweet birthday messages up on my board!

Now I have a big number 2 in front of my age already, no longer a teen! but still is one at heart..

p.s. thank you to Mone, Janice, Angelin and Kp for the birthday sms-es all the way from Malaysia!!

it's been more than a week since i'm back in brisbane

a week has gone by just like that..
as always, saying goodbyes to my grandma and parents are never easy,
this time, got extra hugs from my kuku and beloved grace =)
took the flight back to Brisbane on 24th feb at 9.15pm.

arrived at my new accommodation, Urbanest at around noon, checked in, then went out again for lunch with my HK friend, Crystal. It was really nice of her to accompany me to get my groceries and stuff in the city. I would have been even more miserable if she wasn't there. I'm living in a unit with new ppl, no ex-IH friends at all. Homesickness sets in so quick and badly as i see my room and small bathroom. I couldn't help it but cried when jie called me cos i kept thinking how expensive this place is after hearing my other friends' opinion. Thanks for the call, jie!

The next day, i went to Pauline's place to get my belongings. I was touched when she offered to cook lunch for me, it was a simple yummy baked Coles chicken wings and stir -fried lettuce. We took a cab back to urbanest and then out for grocery shopping again. Thanks for accompanying me pau pau!

Ate sandwiches for most of my meals, but on the third day onwards, i started cooking. Don't have much problem with that =)

Travelling to uni is a whole new thing to me, i was surprised to see the super long queue for bus no 109 from uni back to urbanest. Oh well, I will have to get used to that, after all, it's only a 10-mins journey, can't complaint much.

Starting to like my room and urbanest after i settled in and arranged my room. Loving the en suite bathroom and the view and the air-con of course! will upload some pics of my new place on FB soon.

Uni is gonna be pretty tough this sem as I've forgotten most of the elementary stuff i studied last year, plus all my precious, hand-written notes are damaged by the flood. And I have not got back my study mode yet, hari-hari FB like ALOT, on MSN whole day, cos there's no extension numbers between rooms, so MSN is a free and easy way to contact my friends who are staying in urbanest as well.

See, I'm even blogging now at 11.27am, i don't usually do that. That's all for now, gonna have classes later from 2-6pm.

This is my home-cooked dinner two nights ago. It's pretty good =)
