I'm 22. People all around me are earning more than I do. It does matter. But I am the sole one to be blamed. Uhm...next to my only-being-stingy-is-his-problem boss of mine. I am to be blamed as I am not moving my butt out of here. Dubai is a gone case. Not even a single response. I am planning to stay here until the Brickfield's 3- Star hotel is completed. By end of this year. What is there to lose except for the forever remaining hole in my bank account and my pocket?

Well, that's one story in my life that I'll keep mumbling about till the day I launch my next step. So, holding that aside, I am so desired to get myself some kind of a valuable gadget...

The day I saw Poh Mei in her less energetic moment

I do need to blog this down.

So here's the cliche'd part;
It's about how people say that it's all in the fate and that anyone can fall sick in a wink. No matter how young you are, no matter how many cigarettes you've smoked, no matter how healthily you've tried maintaining your diet; well, you just fall sick just like that.

As for the reality;
My-really-really good friend Poh Mei Yap had her operation. Yesterday, at 5 pm, to be exact. The operation is to remove her cancerous tumor out * Hopefully, I am getting my facts right *. She's been diagnosed with GIST last year.

So, of coz, Poh Mei, the really bubbly-brave-energetic girl was lying in her hospital bed. If I want to say that I am sad, of coz I am, but I am just not the type who will be shedding tears, hugging her tightly and assuring that'll everything will be ok coz I just don't want her to feel pity on her own self.As for the other truth, I just don't know how to give her encouraging support that i rather be making her feel normal than giving her my fake, cliche'd words of encouragements. But, she is brave. Always has been. I'll assure you that for 100%. I don't know how I would have reacted if I am diagnosed with any serious illness. And she took it like a man. And I just don't remember her crying or feeling pity on herself.

Well, this post is not to sympathize on Poh Mei but to just let to her know that I care about her. A lot. I might not be the one sleeping beside her hospital bed but I do care. I might not be with her 24/7 coz I have my own commitments but I do care. I am so honored to be her friend.




On a personal thought;

I think friends are one the best thing in the world. I don't have many good friends, I'll truthfully own up to that. You can count them. But those few that I know, there's like a bunch from primary,secondary and college. But when I am with them, it's the best thing in the world, well next to money and of coz, my weird family. My relatives? They are a whole bunch of sh**; just with an exceptional of a few quality ones. Here's an example; in case I'm to get married, I don't need unnecessary people to be attending my precious my moment; just my family and that bunch of friends. Nobody else; you save money and you save your fake smiles and thank you(s). See? That important they are.




So, Poh Mei, you know where you stand. And I know how fast you can recover. And I know you won't have problem watching over your diet in the days to come as your family is good at that; esp. your sister who gave me the stare when she knew we had Nando's for lunch ( i will never forget that). As you always say, things happen for a reason, right? The sooner you get better, the sooner you'll be on a right track again. And please don't feel left out thinking who's where or who's doing what. The boutique blog of yours will be for better. I don't know who reads this blog but if you are curious about the e-boutique Miss Poh Mei owns, do visit pmboutique.blogspot.com .

As for the other girls;
Manoghowrii, you have no idea how many times I've gotten mad just by you saying that you can't make it to see us but in the end, you've always explained through. So, maybe I am the one over-reacting or it's still hard to make sense into my head.

Hui Ling, well, what can I say besides.... come back here :P Nah, you've always known how to take care of yourself and be strong. Well, I'll say, you are the toughest among the girls.

Faiza, well, I think I know you better now. Definitely. And I certainly admire the way you drive... LOL...u know it.




And of course, there's this girl called Mary Lim Jia Ling, right? who is very very busy..even to blog or even to come back here as well...

Project 2008, February

Here it is; a part of my interest that is of course, related to the field I am right now. I've never regretted being in the line of interior design and never will. If I am however needed to diverge from ID, it will still be related somehow or rather. I think there are many related options left. The only problem is I don't know how to earn well. Well, never mind about that.

Now, this is a WEDDING of a somehow-related cousin. I was given the job to decorate the wedding house with a minimal decoration. So, I got my basics and just decorated with the help of my family.

Note: Pictures might be lacking with quality as it's only taken with a NOKIA 2630's VGA Camera.

Toooo weird.....

I thought Bak Kut Teh is disgusting.
But wait a minute, I found another one. And it's grossier than ever.

The foetus that found it's doom

It's understood that it's a Filipino culture. But it's just way over the borderline of normal food.

Well, i know. I am consuming chicken meat,right? But, the chickens lived their life and then we eat them and besides it's categorized under poultry. So, it's like it's in our daily diet.

Enough said.
