Tomorrow

I am in the midst of a last minute packing for tomorrow's 3 days 2 night 
Year 11 Camp, facebooking and also getting ready for my Chinese Oral Trial. 
Eek!

I just bought my very first pair of boots (yay!) today for the camp.
Yes, winter has just ended. Talk about bad timing. 

I will take loads of pictures during the camp if time permits so stay
tune to my blog ;D

shi-yi.blogspot.com's COMEBACK

I am here to deliver a request made by my puny little best friend,
who is upset or so I would like to believe that I have not been 
updating my blog for what it seemed for months )':

Anyway, as most of you people know, I am now living and studying in 
Melbourne :7 The transition was rather smooth, I think. Well, the funny 
thing is I tend to wipe out all the unpleasant memories so yeah ;D

Uh kayy.. updates I shall make now.

1. (I always thought writing in point form is an act of laziness but here 
I am succumbing to erm...laziness?) I have friends. LOL! I remembered 
picturing myself having recess in the toilet alone before I came to Melbourne.

What if no one understands what I am saying? What if the teachers 
think I am stupid? What if I have no want likes me? What if people see
me as a freak? There were so many what ifs and well.....

...in the end I found out that people DO understand me or
at least they look like they do :X, the teachers think I am brilliant 
HAHAHA joke! Australian teachers are way too polite and 
shower students with praises whether they truly deserve 
them or not. Being educated in an Asian country, I some times 
find it AWKWARD to you know, accept compliments....
wait, who am I kidding, I am Shi-Yi =.= I do get praises ALL
THE TIME ;D hehhehehhe! People DO like me for what I am, 
right Su Yee, XinYe, Rita, Elaine, Michelle, Emily, Ching Yi?? 
LOL And of course, I am still a freak :x 

2. I tried out two new subjects- Economics and Accounting. HUMPH. 
Unfortunately, I got Mr. 烂人 for Economics and didn't get to experience 
the JOY of macro and micro economics that I heard Michelle and Melissa 
talk about :X sppsh! Accounting is like maths, so systematic and 
logical that it is impossible not to get the concepts right ;D

3. I represented my school badminton team to play badminton. sppsh,
of course! what do you think? as a ball girl? hahahha, don't worry, 
Adele, I won't snatch the glorious job of yours :) 

Oh yeah, today was the last match of the year ;X  Jacquieeeeeeee 
I am so sadddddd!

4. I debated for the first time of my life. And it was darn bloody 
scary even though there were only 14 audience =.= 
hahahhahahahha!

5. I am taking public transportation to school. Yep, I am an independent
woman and am ready to take on all sorts of hurdles and challenges in life
so bring it on! Ohmph! Yes, I am still lame. I know. I know. Apparently, 
lameness stays even if you have cross the ocean .="

6. I am washing the dishes now. Sad case, man ;X

7. I decided to continue blogging for the sake of keeping in touch with 
my dear Malaysian peeps (esp. Carmen hahah) and also the bloggers.

All right! That's it for now. See ya'!

Since I don't have wifi at my new house, I typed this post, saved it in a USB and went to the library to post it. So yea, this is a LATE post.

24.1.2011



HELLO. Readers, HOW ARE YOU?
I really miss you guys.
It has been too long since yours truly blog.


I haven’t got any wifi installed in the
new house so I can’t access to the internet.
I had to use the public libraries’ computer.
Since I am a member of a group of libraries,
I am entitled to borrow a maximum number of
70 books at one go for a period of 30 days (about a month!).
The computers in the library are free to be used too.


The BEST thing is there were no charges needed for the
membership card. Yep, that’s what you get for
being a first world country’s resident. Well, of course
you have to pay higher tax compared to when residing
in Malaysia.


I went to the city today which explains my lift of mood. YAY.
Seeing tall, compact buildings and people of all skin colors
with their distinctive style of dressing speaking their
native language really got me giddy inside out.


If it weren’t because I was rushing to the bookstore to
buy my school textbooks, I would have park myself on
one of the benches beside the busy sidewalk
and people-watch.





According to Jamie (the daughter of my dad’s friend),
the bookstore, which is at the intersection of Longsdale
and Swanston Street, sells secondhand school text books.
Knowing this, my mum bought us the daily train ticket
to the city. Unfortunately, the three novels- Stolen, Night
and Hannah Montana required for my English class
were sold out. Looks like I have to get brand new ones. HUMPH.


The past few days have been a pretty big letdown for me.
I felt like hopping on the next flight available
back to Malaysia. THEN, I visited Carmen’s and Ariel’s blogs.
I was cheered up instantly. I smiled and couldn’t help
laughing out loud like crazy (I was in the library and
it was so quiet that even if a needle drop on the
carpeted floor, you can still hear the ‘TING’ sound)
especially when I read what Carmen missed about me.
HARHARHAR. The way I laugh?
OH MY GAWT. What is wrong with my LAUGH?
HUH? CARMEN TEOH KA BOOM?!
I like the Carmen ugly part though.


I vaguely remember running the memories
I had with the MINI PABOs through my head
as I steadied myself towards the red and white airplane.
It was so SAD (not the memories, idiot). I felt like the HEROINE
giving up her wonderful life and fantastic friends
to save another country from boredom.
(PIC 4)(need to find)


OH. Do you want to see my new room?

 Tell you something…
I don’t think I can take this anymore,
another 311 days hanging the clothes,
washing the dishes, helping to prepare lunch and dinner, etc.
Before this, I, Lady Shi-Yi, NEVER had to do any house work.



Auntie Liu, come back to Lady Shi-Yi.
I will never complain about your horrible cooking skills
(as if you have any HAHAHAHAHHAHA).

I even assembled my very own WHITE CUPBOARD.
Brava Lady! Brava, brava dear Lady!
This white cupboard comes in a flat pack,
which my mum purchased from the REJECT SHOP.

Jeez, I wished MR REJECT SHOP will read my blog
because the next thing I am going to say is,
CHANGE IT! CHANGE THE NAME OF YOUR SHOP!


Aiyo, how would you feel if someone walks into your bedroom,
stares with total adoration at your white cupboard
and says enviously, Oh boy, this must has cost you
an arm and a leg. Lovely thing, isn’t it? Where did you get
this baby from? I MUST HAVE IT. I MUST. SO, DO TELL ME.

You cough and smile feeblishly in vain hope to
cover the embarrassment you are about to face.
Oh, this white cupboard? *waves hand in the air as
if it cost a toenail and an eyelash*
I…got this baby from…THE REJECT SHOP *DUM DUM DUM*


EPIC SILENCE. Then, you laugh again.
He or she laughs out of plain courtesy
and leaves without asking you where THE REJECT SHOP is
while you run from behind and try to explain
that the items sold at THE REJECT SHOP
are all good and new, not rejected things other people leave
behind.

Walao. I just realized how lame I was
in the last three paragraphs.
Talking to myself. Well. Well. Soon I will be telling jokes to
my imaginary friends.


=.=

Do you still remember me bragging about my
sacrifice for making little cute cards for my besties?
Scratch that. THIS IS 100 times more tiring and energy
consuming. My bare hands screwed the nails into
the holes until they turned red and blotchy.



Even after three days, I still am proud with my ability
to “build” my cupboard from “scratch”.
HEHEHEHHEHE. Looks like studying Kemahiran Hidup
for three years paid off handsomely. Thank you, Puan Rahaya.



 GUESS WHAT PEOPLE OF THE CYBER WORLD?
My new school is having an overnight orientation program
for all oversea new students this Thursday.
I really am excited!


WHEE~
I wonder who will be my future school mates
and potential friends. I can’t wait.
Whenever there is a big event coming up,
I am usually excited first, then, nervous the night before.
HAHHAAaaaaa ha. Ok. I think I am a little scared now. Pray hard for me, OK?




OH. I am finally getting a mobile phone. My OWN phone.
I know right? How can the Lady not have one when everyone
else have it since primary school days. Nevermind.

At least I have a BUBBLEGUM PINK laptop, which allows me
to watch LOADS OF KOREAN AND TAIWANESE DRAMAS.
Here is the list of shows I have watched so far via this laptop
Since my dad bought it for me last year in August:
1. (Korean) Boys Over Flowers
2. (Korean) You Are Beautiful
3. (Taiwanese) Summer Desire
4. (Korean) Sungkyunwan Scandal
5. (Korean) Playful Kiss
6. (Korean) Shining Inheritance/Brilliant Legacy
7. (Taiwanese)(movie) Love Announcement
8. (Taiwanese) Hot Shot
9. (Korean) Princess Hours
10. (Taiwanese) Gong Zhu Xiao Mei
11. (Korean) Dream High




I saw this LG KU3800 pink flip phone with LED lights
at the LG CYON website. Yep, it is a CYON phone.
Many Korean celebrities had advertised for LG CYON
Mobile phones. Lee Min Ho, SNSD, Big Band, 2NE1 are
among the ambassadors. AHH! AWESOME MUCH?!

Before you get too happy, GET THIS- LG KU3800 was only released in
Korea on the December 2010. =.=
So, think. Aussie surely won’t have that model in the market yet.
Malaysia… wait for 100 years later lah.

I WANT THIS I WANT THIS





I hope the weather tomorrow will be like how
Subang Jaya, Malaysia was in December. Not sunny yet not chilly.

I cannot stand Melbourne’s weather.
Last night was chili pepper hot. So, I just used one layer of quilt.
I tell you, don’t play play because THE NEXT MORNING WAS
FREEZING COLD. I regretted keeping away my second layer of quilt.


Really. Melbourne’s weather is unpredictable unlike
other countries with four seasons. Sometimes, you
will get four seasons in one day. SERIOUS. My parents
studied there so they know, okay.


Oops. I have almost forgotten to tell you what
happened on my arrival day in Melbourne Airport.
We MISSED OUT one of the boxes. Yes, we were supposed
to collect 6 boxes from the conveyer belt BUT we didn’t
count them to make sure we had collected all of them
before leaving the airport.


Back in the new house, my mum was telling
my uncle about the“very good” and “has two handles at it sides”
cooking wok she bought in Malaysia,
which my uncle remarked,
“Aiya. You can get this kind of wok over here.
Nothing special about it!”

Feeling insulted, she ordered me to bring out
the box that contained the wok because I think
she wants to prove her point or whatever.


So, I went to search and OH NO!


YEP. THAT WAS HOW WE DISCOVERED THAT
OUR NUMBER 6th BOX WAS NO WHERE TO
BE FOUND.


Alright. That’s all for today. I hope that
this long post of 1390 words will make up for my absence
of blogging in the past few days.


I shall end this post with….













Tuesday, January 18, 2011

Ying Qi just came over to pass me the
thumb drive which contains all our pictures
taken together in the past.


Yep, SHE DOESN'T KNOW THAT
THERE IS SUCH THING AS EMAIL.
WHY HELLO YING QI WELCOME TO THE 21st CENTURY???!


I just realised that I sounded like an
ungrateful best friend. ehhehe.


OK. How about this...


I am so touched
until my eyes had popped,
until I sang 12 different Chinese New Year songs,
until I don't mind admitting you are going to be taller than me ONE DAY(not today),
until I am done plucking Carmen's eyebrows and am proceeding to Min Ling's,
until I

Why, HELLO ARIEL. 

Monday, January 17, 2011

" I, Tio Min Ling, is a sheep. Everyone knows sheeps are stupid but you never know(inside joke) because now I am going to be the MINI PABO's BABO!"
" I, Ng Shi-Yi, the awesome human being, am going to hand over the MINI SHI-YI title to Tio Min Ling, who is going to change the title to the MINI PABOs"

#Sorry, I don't have the certificate so I don't know
the exact words. But the main content is like that lah. 

 
Confuse?

Ok, to those who DON'T KNOW US,
my friends and I are generally  whacky people. 
We have our very own idea of fun, which usually includes
making up meaningless songs (hua ya kai ya song,
chicken ball song & mountain song)and then later on
belting them out loud in class, having themed outings,
cooking (or rather dumping anything edible into one bowl) food,
making "perjanjians", etc.

Instead of having a regular Farewell Party for me
like any other sane people would, we, the MINI PABOs,
decided to conduct a ceromony after having lunch
together at Daorae Korean BBQ.

OH. Guess what was our THEME for that day?!!
SINGLE LADIES. Credits to Miss Ariel, the Tongkei Fanshee.
Yep, surprisingly, all of us are single.
I know right? HAHAHHAHAR
i can be so thick skin sometimes 
now you know why i am single HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAH

We had to wear rings BUT BUT BUT SOME PEOPLE
FORGOTTEN. you know who you are.

On the 14th of January,immediately after school,
YQ, CT and LOO followed YAP back to her house
to get dressed while TIO and AC went back to
their respective houses.


Since I already left school for good,
I went straight from BP lab to YAP's.


Then bblalalalabla bla i am too lazy to type already.

YQ, YAP and I were the last to arrive at Daorae.
It was 2:30 already and the restaurant closes at 3:15.
Thank God smart Carmen helped us to order before we came
or else we would probably go to Mc Donalds to eat.


The food was great. Mainly because there was PORK.
hahahahaha. BBQ PORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!





Because we were the LAST CUSTOMERS in Daorae,
the waiters stood in a line and bid us farewell.
HARHARHARHAR. I bet they couldn't wait to get rid of us
behind their smiles and "KAM SA MI DAs".

OH GUESS WHAT? My father fetch us back to
Denise's usind A CAR.
SEVEN OF US I TELL YOU!
Of course, I sat in front beside my father so the
six of them had to squeeze behind. MUAHHAHAHAH.
Imma so evil!


LOOK!     YOU CAN'T EVEN SEE MIN LING...



WHERE ARE YOU MIN LING? MEH MEH MEH...


I SEE A MUSHROOM HEAD. THERE YOU ARE!
TIO MIN LING IS ALIVE.
z




Back in Denise's.

What happened next in Denise's is private so I won't tell you anything.
So bye bye.



Shin Yee

the little something you do

I am so touched
until my eyebrows are popping out,
until I feel like singing Chinese New Year song,
until I don't mind standing in the rectangle,
until I feel like plucking Carmen's eyebrows,
until I

We were in the same class in primary school


but we never mixed.


She always gets position NO 1 for every school examination.
TO me, getting into the top 10 was already considered GOOD.

She always sits in the first row and seldom open her mouth.
(yawning does not count so don't try to be smart alex with me).


She pays 100% attention during class.
I give 10% attention to whoever teaching infront of the class.

Needless to say, I always sit at the back row,
busy passing notes to my friends.


Fate must have wanted us to be friends
because we got into the same secondary school and
were placed in the same class. We didn't know anyone else
besides each other so we chose to be desk partners.
We got along quite well and often hung out together.


Unfortunately, we were placed in different classes during
Form 2. At first, we tried keeping in touch by writing letters to
each other. Then, it became tiresome.


Nowadays, we only talked once or twice in a
few months. Sometimes, we just HI and BYE when
we walk past one another.


THAT WAS WHY I WAS SO SURPRISED WHEN
SHE CAME TO MY HOUSE TODAY JUST TO BID
ME FAREWELL AND HAND ME OVER A PRESENT
AND A LETTER.




Thank you, Looi Shin Yee.
