Malaysia Boleh!!!

you thought this was some weird post about malaysia boleh?

no you're wrong...
malaysia certainly boleh last sunday as our badminton players achieved history!!

BWF Super Series Masters Finals
Likas Sports Complex,
Kota Kinabalu, Sabah

this is the first time ever that such an event is being held...
where only the top 8 players in the world are invited to participate...
it offers lucrative prize money and everyone dreams of playing in it...
everyone except weird china players...
don't wanna talk about them...

on sunday...
malaysia had representatives in 3 finals!!
if they could all get it right, what a glorious day it would be for the country!!

and they did exactly what was expected of them...
leading the act was world number one men's singles player Datuk Lee Chong Wei...
he basically demolished Peter Gade of Denmark...
in the 1st set he even led 12-0!!
he was determined to win his first title as top player in the world and he never let his fans down...
way to go datuk!!!


next up was the ever inconsistent pair of Koo Kien Keat-Tan Boon Heong...
i'm watching their match as i'm writing this now...
clearly they have much more understanding of each other now compared to last time...
at least they don't complain and blame each other for their mistakes...
and TBH has rediscovered his killer smashes!!!
they looked relaxed throughout the match and even smiled when they made mistakes...
this no pressure play is what made them win the title...
and tbh's post match interview was so funny...
as he doesn't really know how to speak English,
all the interview questions were directed at kkk...
but he couldn't avoid answering at least one...
so when asked how did he feel after winning,
he said " i feel very happy because this is our 1st champion this year"...haha...
you must be feeling weird as to what is so funny...
but his way of talking and how he looked so shy when speaking was real funny and kinda cute...
that's why i like him...haha...
anyway,
hope that this win will spark a comeback for them as malaysia's diamond pair...
looking forward to much more greater things from them next year...
don't let us down anymore...




last to go on court was our women's doubles Chin Eei Hui-Wong Pei Tty..
the crowd was already bursting with pride after 2 wins but chin-wong pampered them with another title for malaysia!!!
they fought gallantly against the indonesians and earned themselves USD42,000!!!
a big amount of money added to their many runner-up winnings in the past few months...
no wonder pei tty said that she'll have more money to spend during CNY...haha...
well done!!

in the end,
it was a really proud day for malaysia as we have never been so successful in a tournament before...
bravo to all the winners!!!
hope that 2009 will be an even better year and...

MALAYSIA BOLEH!!!

food glorious food~~

went to hang out with my old friends aka my gang last saturday...

started our journey at 5.30pm...
was awfully tired and sleepy...
i drove the whole day la wei...
after fetching udang and voon to ktm at 1pm,
i had to go through the same road again to reach our makan place at night...

never mind...
at last we reached the bbq+steamboat restaurant!!!
there weren't many people as we were early...
quickly went in and started eating!!


the restaurant~~

there are loads and loads of food...

用心去想.....

这封email之前看过几次都没什么感觉，应该是没有认真去读吧...
刚刚再看多一次，认真去想，觉得每一句都蛮有道理的...

一
　 如果我们之间有1000步的距离
你只要跨出第1步　
我就会朝你的方向走其余的999步
　　
　　
二
　　通常愿意留下来跟你争吵的人
　　才是真正爱你的人
　　
　　
三　
　　付出真心　才会得到真心　
　　却也可能伤得彻底
　　保持距离　就能保护自己
　　却也注定永远寂寞
　　
　　
四
　　有时候　不是对方不在乎你
　　而是你把对方看得太重
　　
　　
五
　　朋友就是把你看透了　还能喜欢你的人
　　
　　
六
　　就算是believe　中间也藏了一个lie
　　
　　
七
　　真正的好朋友
　　并不是在一起就有聊不完的话题
　　而是在一起　就算不说话
　　 也不会感到尴尬
　　
　　
八
　　没有一百分的另一半
　　只有五十分的两个人
　　
　　
九　
　　为你的难过而快乐的　是敌人
　　为你的快乐而快乐的　是朋友
　　为你的难过而难过的
　　 就是那些　该放进心里的人
　　
　　
十
　　 冷漠　有时候并不是无情
　　只是一种避免被伤害的工具

Genting trip 2-4 Dec 08 continued~~

Day 2~~

seriously deprived of sleep the previous night...
we woke up around 9.30am...took turns to wash up...
then it's time for breakfast!!
since everything is so EXPENSIVE down there...we stored food in the room like war is coming...


there's more goodies hidden in plastic bags!!

see the huge loaf of bread? that was our breakfast that morning...
9 hungry people gobbled down bread with tuna and then off we go to another day of activities~~

we rushed to the cineplex to catch the one and only Bolt screening of the day...
bought premier tickets inclusive of popcorn, drinks and a snack...
and it's showtime!!
Bolt is SO CUTE!!
every time he did something that melted people's hearts...the whole cinema went "aww....aww..."
no one could resist a cute dog~~ hehe
overall, the movie was great...different storyline from other animations... nice!!
but the popcorn was way too much...had to share and still can't finish...haha...

after the movie, we strolled to a peaceful garden with a maze and an amazing view...
what can a bunch of crazy people do there?
camwhore la of course!!


the only guy of the lot~~


i don't have hood la wei...


bungee jumping??


my dear niece~~??


like this one...fog about to cover us....


ming is seriously so not heavy!!

there's suppose to be more photos in li ee's pro camera...i mean more crazy photos...
cant wait to get them and post here...
we also did other stuff besides camwhoring la...
we walked on the stone path barefooted...
yelling and grimacing in pain along the way ( not me )...haha~~

later, me,voon, ming and udang spent the remaining of the afternoon browsing the shops in first world...
and we finally bought ming her belated birthday present--> a purse!
the itchy itchy hand and heart udang couldn't resist getting herself one also...haha...
so she got herself a brand new purse as well!

night time~~
took discounted dinner at Hou Mei...much more tastier than the "mee" yesterday...
after dinner, plans for the night were divided into 2 groups...
and it was like "adults" and "children" programme...
susan, kar hui, christine, li ee went clubbing~~
me, udang, pei yee, voon, ming attended a friendship concert and went to snow world after that~~
clubbing and snow world...completely opposites of each other!! haha...
snow world was totally cool...i mean cold...
barely 5 minutes inside and we were already freezing...
my nose could have broken off anytime i think...
as if we weren't cold enough...our insides were made to freeze as well thanks to the yogurt drink...
and not to forget...
the jackets stink!!!

after enough freezing,
we went back to the room to indulge in hot hot cup noodles and few hours of drama...
and that ends day 2~~


Day 3~~

the last day of our trip ...
checked out and started our journey home...
in the cable car,
we made final good use of li ee's pro camera and camwhored...
photos are once again not with me...will post them later...
and susan the siao po kept on shouting whenever our cable car vibrated!! haha...
bought the 2.30pm bus to KL...
while waiting...


digi yellowman~~

took just before it started to rain...

it rained like cats and dogs throughout our journey back...
and we only reached KL Sentral around 5pm??....couldn't remember...

so that ends a 3 day trip which I enjoyed immensely...
and to end it with a bang...
the dancing queens were awarded the GOLD award in the festival!!!
they really did a good job and well done!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
hope that they'll succeed in FESENI next!

seriously...
this 3 days has really been a good chance for us to mingle around and spend time with each other...
I have been looking forward to this trip so much...
because after only one week of holidays I already started to miss my lunatic gang!!
miss the POSUM ones, the normal sometimes abnormal one, the big appetite one, the camwhoring ones...
and the one who couldn't join us in genting...
but at the same time I also did not want it to come...
because after the trip it'll be a long month away till we'll be able to hang out together again...
mixed feelings then...

anyway, trip is now over...one more month of holiday...
seriously will miss all of you girls!!!
and thanks for the wonderful holiday up in the peak!!!
I simply just feel happy and relaxed being among all of you...
talking nonsense, teasing each other, camwhoring, chit chatting...
and even when doing nothing...haha...

hope that another trip will be coming up in no time~~
and LOVE all of u girls!!

Genting trip 2-4 Dec 08

just came back from genting trip with my gang of crazy people

eg. me, udang, voon, ming, susan, li ee, pei yee and two others christine and kar hui...
had fun for 3 days but seriously lack of sleep (again)...haha...
its like we will never have enough sleep when all of us are with each other...hehe...

okay...let me recall what we did for the past 3 days...

day 1~~
the non-dancers aka supporters gathered in KL Sentral around noon...

only managed to buy 2pm bus tickets...so we had 2 long hours to spare!
what did we do ?

ermm, while waiting we lingered at mcD, ate a burger, chit chat, talk nonsense...
that's about all...can't do much when there's not enough posum around...haha...

2pm...
time to board the bus!! and off we go to the peak!!

on the bus...
udang told me a real life story which made me wonder...
what?!? this kind of stuff still happens nowadays?
its like in a movie or something...the world is seriously not safe...

in the cable car...
we started camwhoring!! (as susan calls it...hehe )

udang, me, kar hui, christine, pei yee... and not forgetting the photographer li ee!

at last we reached the peak!
had to rush to grab a number for check-in and then rush to watch the dance competition..


ticket for the performance~~

after many many and many indian dances...
at last its time for the dancing queens to shine!!
they glided around the stage like chinese goddesses...
and danced ever so gracefully...
with their unique costume, it was undoubtedly an unforgettable performance that evening...
congrats girls!!!

the three dancing queens!!


later that night, we had dinner with all the dancers at pizza hut...
something unpleasant happened, but I will not dwell on it...just a small matter...
then...its time to camwhore again!
this time with the queen of camwhoring around...things get serious...haha...


love this photo...but there's no me in it!!


udang looks creepy~~


8 is my number...

no. 23 for udang

9/11 for voon


looks like an endless corridor...

walking around like homeless youths, we stopped at Only Mee to eat super supper...
guess what? the food there was so expensive!!
imagine a cup of milo which cost RM5++ !!! siao!!
some of us who were starving ate the very "valuable" mee there...
while the others resorted to the cheapest kind of mee...
served only in our room --> cup noodles!!

i wouldn't mind if the bowl of noodles was this big...

early in the morning...around 4am...
me and udang went loitering around till 6.30am...
the others all went back up to snuggle into the comfy beds...
we sat in the lobby, on the stairs of the main entrance, at the road side...
waiting for the disgusting mee in our stomachs to digest...
while sitting on the stairs,
a policeman came over and started chit chatting with us...
he gave us an insight about 'ayam' and 'bapa ayam' and crimes in genting...
he even introduced us to some cheap mamak up there...
but most of the time we can't understand him because he was speaking too quickly!
we just "ahh...ahh...ahh..." and ran away from him when he went to saman a car...haha...
but seriously we looked like we were kena tangkap as we were sitting patheticly on the stairs beside a policeman...haha...

whatever...

next spot...hotel lobby...
genting seriously never sleeps...
in the middle of the night and tour groups are still arriving...
it's like the place is free or something...
we watched the people moving about while chit chatting till our eyes could no longer open...

that's all for day 1~~

more on day 2 and 3 later.....
