Typhoon???

we were released earlier from training school yesterday after the typhoon signal no.8 was hoisted. supposedly we should be scared and worried but none of us felt that way. all of us were so happy because the class ended early and excited because it's the first time we're experiencing typhoon. we are a bunch of crazy people indeed. transport were arranged for us to go home early and once we reached our respective towers/blocks, we saw this...


however, class resumed today but only 2 hours later than usual as the signal has changed from no.8 to no.3. i managed to capture a video of the typhoon no.3. it was still pouring and you can see that it's so windy. imagine if it's typhoon signal no.8, it'll be i-don't-know-how-many-hundred-times-worse than no.3. according to a guy (big, not skinny) friend of mine, he tried standing outside during typhoon no.8 and he almost became a Superman (got flown away). read more if you're interested. honestly, i'm too lazy to read them. oh..we were told that during training, if typhoon signal no.8 is hoisted, class will be cancelled. but after training, once we started working, we MUST go to work even if it's signal no.8. CRAZY MAN!! tell you, i'll definitely become a Superwoman by then.
~now everyone i can fly~

Yue Kee Roast Goose

on 19th September, we had the most copious and expensive dinner ever since we came to Hong Kong. a friend recommended roast goose at Sham Tseng as it's very famous and it's pretty near to our place. there are so many restaurants selling roast goose at Sham Tseng but we went to Sham Tseng Yue Kee Roast Goose Restaurant as it is the most well-known. ordered a few dishes as roast goose alone is never enough, plus i don't eat goose. gaga.. i really do recommend Yue Kee as the food there are yummy although it's a lil too expensive. we ordered a roast goose, soup and 4 other dishes and the total bill came to a whooping HK$1099.20. ooo la la... after dinner we had dessert at Lucky Dessert, also a very well-known place for dessert.

PFFT...I'm Back Again

it's been exactly 10 days since i came to Hong Kong; my new place to start a new life, a new job and meeting new friends and colleagues. i have to start everything from scratch again. learning to adapt to changes and living a new life in a total strange and new world. learning to be strong and independant, enduring life with my possible strength.

so far, i've been coping with everything pretty well. i love my new house; a nice apartment at the Gold Coast Residences, i'm in the same batch as 2 ex-colleagues from my previous company whom i'm clicking pretty well with and not forgetting, meeting new friends. although our schedule is so hectic and trainings are intensive, we're trying to support each other in any way we could. hope everyone make it through. hmmm...i sounded quite emo, wonder why. i think i miss home.

i do miss blogging, although i have nothing interesting to talk about most of the time. just feel like keeping this blog alive as long as i could possibly do. like i've said, schedules are so pack, we have no sufficient time to revise, study and go online. but today is an exemption, i'm so lazy to read so decided to spend some time updating this blog.

here goes, my long neglected posts all squeeze into 1. back in August, i decided to go to Penang to see my Grandma before i leave for Hong Kong, as i've never seen her for 3 years since i started working in KL. plus i have idea when will i be coming back to M'sia again once i'm in HK. so Mom, bro and i went to Penang on 15th-18th August. i was so happy to see Grandma when we reached but i was sad at the same time. i notice that Grandma is getting old and she's suffering from joint pain on the knee/arthritis. it's sad to see her in pain at times which she tried hiding by not complaining but we can see from her facial expression.


Ah Ma.

k la, stop being so emo. let me post some pics of food. we had dim sum, lotsa asam laksa and seafood. at least i had all the yummy food before i leave KL.





Dim sum, buffet style, very very cheap.





Seafood...saliva drooling di...


Crabbie crab.


Cute cute Jess.

on 29th August, Avril Lavigne finally came to Malaysia for her concert after all the huru-hara caused by ... manusia. Miss Karen asked if i'm interested and hell yeah, i'm very interested. so i went to the concert with Miss Karen and 1 of her colleagues. first time going to a concert ok, and i was so jakun. bah..

when we were there, it was drizzling. so every one of us got a free ugly ciplak raincoat. bodohss...but luckily it stopped right before the concert starts. all in all, Avril R-O-C-K-S!!!























Devilish Karen.

on 30th August, we went to Velvet to party. my so-called farewell and my last jeng jeng before leaving for Hong Kong. thanks to those who turned up and piggyback-ed me. i'm so gonna miss jeng jeng-ing with you guys. hearts all of you!! *wonder when will i be coming back to jeng jeng again...sigh*
