status : idle

heheh, actually, not idle..just lazy to blog…plus cousins aren’t around so practically nothing much to do, just stay in the house, watch lots of tennis!

Last week’s Roger ATP Master Cup was a BIG disappointment coz Federer lost in his first play against a wild card, Simon! And Nadal won the title and now is just 300 points behind the World No. 1.

Then this week the Cincinnati Master Cup sponsore by Western & Southern Financial Group is on! The time difference is 11 hours which means if I am to watch, need to wake up early in the morning or stay up late! Supposed to wake up at 4am this morning to watch Federer play…but failed!

Anyway, been watching some series - When Dog Loves Cat (當狗愛上貓). But only till episode 6. I saw the previews in Channel 302 and it does look like a very relax series so decided to download and watch!

Just found out that you can watch Episode 1-5 of Moonlight Resonance (家好月圓),in Astro Channel 931 and 932 for free! Great line of casts! It is known to be an indirect sequel from Heart of Greed but this time, all the actors and actresses has different characters and story line. Instead of selling abalone, they are making mooncake! Definatley worth watching….

Next, looking forward to this Sunday’s Passion World Tour In KL!!! Speakers - Chris Tomlin, Louie Giglio and Charlie Hall.

Olympic

Ok, this is like an advert….found this very cool clip in youtube while browsing for adverts by Federer!!

Thorpe Park

Ok, this is the long awaited post that should have been posted a month ago! I was so lazy…no excuses…should have blog abt it the day itself but we leaving UK the next day, then the something wrong with internet which makes it impossible to upload and finally after a few weeks, here it is! My trip to Thorpe Park, UK. One of the most thrilling and fun theme park in whole Europe! They have the scariest ride…

I do hope to play most of these rides and theme parks before my heart cant handle it. Even when I was playing these, my heart was beating so fast and it feels so great…when I close my eyes after those rides, I can feel the speed and the drop…wah..super!!!

This is Veep and me, taking train to Thorpe Park. It was about an hour ride? Haha, very nice trains!

Veep and me - behind us - Stealth!

Veep and me - behind - erm…some water ride, cant remember what it’s called…..someone help me!

Niny and I - queuing for Nemesis Inferno - behind us Stealth!!!

The rides :

Stealth - the highest, fastest ride, super!! When u’re going up, u feel like u’re shooting up the sky and when u’re going down, it feels as if u’re plunging down…but it’s so fast, less than 30 sec. But the queue nearly up to 2 hours!

This is Nemesis Inferno, a roller coaster ride - ur legs are actually hanging…super! But my fav is Stealth. This is fun too!!! When us go 360 degree it’s so fast that it’s really indescribable!

Free fall - cant remember what it’s called! Not as nice because it only one fall. But once I’m up there, i really wanted to get out because it’s so HIGH!!! And I could see the sea/river? Anyway…when it drops, it’s so fast that u actually can’t feel it. Sherp (cousin) went on a free fall in Ocean Park which is double the height and more than one fall - that I must go!

my summer

Here is what I have been doing for the past week or so….

Cousins 13 Gathering!

Yay! One of the best gathering!!! Got the pics from Ofhopeandlove.com. Had a great time with them even tho I would be considered as a dampener or someone who loves to sleep by them. But the fact is mainlly because my energy drain out easily and normally by the end of the day, it’s all gone, that’s why I become so sleepy before the night sets in. I feel bad about it but I’m trying hard not to spoil everyone’s mood. So, if I did, I’m SORRY!!! I love you all!!

Playing The Sims 2.

The last time i played was when I was in form 5….about 5 years ago. I was crazy playing The Sims. Day and night playing the game, downloading skins, furnitures and making the character perfect. This time when veep came back, she had The Sims 2 in her comp so I tried it out. Most of the things are same, like the way u build your house, only you have more stuff to do, like when you create the character, you can actually change their face to your preference. You can even make yourself!!! I saw a pair of eyes that were like Federer’s…creepy! Then while playing, I realised lots of new features like you need to make sure the desires and wants of the sim is met. And lots of new actions like the sim would actually become pregnant and labour and deliver. During the days I played, the baby just pop up, no pregnancy! Amazing how the game has evolved!

Watching Roger’s Cup!
roger cup
:wink: Federer will be playing tmr (msian time)! His first game and he’ll be playing against Gilles Simon.

Playing Tennis!

But just once, with sisters and veep! Later today will be playing! I’m not good in tennis but I believe I can be good! ahahha…it’s never too late to learn, right? But I must say, my youngest sis, meepit, is really good… ahahha…
As for me, :razz: , I’ve learnt a few good tips…cant wait to go to the court to play later!

they’re here!

yay!!! one of the most complete gathering of the WGTG!!!! only 2 MIA which is one from Group A and another from Group B. So far, we had bday surprises, BBQ, breakfasts, dinners and outings together. Despite the hot weather in Msia, I’m sure everyone is enjoying it very much!!! Even tho this gathering isnt going to be long as not many people can actually make it due to work, studies and so on, it’s still great because family will always be family.

The highlight this time is the bday surprise for Sherp! I enjoyed planning for it and I am sure the rest of the cousins enjoyed it too! And I’m glad she’s surprised by us! :razz:

Sorrie, this is a short post as the internet is really getting on my nerves!!! I cant upload any pictures..but I promise, more pictures coming up soon….

debat

Now watching the debate on oil. Hehe…dont want to comment too much, might be too sensitive. Just that I believe anything shown on tv is just too biased! But it’s good to watch. I asked meepit to watch and told her if Ms Yeoh is teaching her, for sure will need to watch. I still remember those times when I have to sit and watch the 8pm news in case she asked anything about it the next day. It was really great because watching news helps in writing essay and also know the isu-isu semasa. But back then I guess things weren’t so corrupted and biased.

Ok…enough about that…I am considering a new phone! keeke….because the one I wanted will only be out end of the year. It’s N78. I read the specs, not bad…of course it cannot be as good as the one I wanted but I guess for the time being…should be ok…need to see for myself, try it out…and see if i really like it…

So any of you who know more about this phone, good or bad, please let me know! :razz:

wedding

This morning, went to my friend’s sister’s wedding. It’s a chinese custom wedding, something I’ve never been too. So, my friend invited me to view. I called her last night and she told me to come at 630am. 630?!!!! Then she said maybe 7 also can. Oh well, I got ready and went there before 7. A lot of relatives and friends and her sister, Lu Ing, is very pretty. My first time seeing a bride so close up! It was so exciting to see the bride’s friends playing ‘tricks’ on the guys.Then we went over to the guy’s house for a while to watch the tea ceremony. Later my friend and I returned to her house and I walked back home.

Tonight is the wedding banquet. Yay! I am invited. Hah..actually my parents were the one invited but because we were good family friend, so I could attend too! Yay!!

Was watching TV and there was this interview with Andy Lau and he mentioned about Fed and Nadal’s game. He even said that he hope Fed will win the Olympics tennis! *me too!*
