I went CNY shopping today. Alone again, but I've always liked to shop alone. I consider myself to be a good shopper. If I like something then I will just get it. I don't like to haggle or dilly-dally, I don't know why, haggling is just not my thing. Okay, maybe I am good for the shopkeepers, but not a good shopper --- damage to my purse?
That's why I feel weird shopping at places like Times Square or Sg Wang cuz everyone haggles over there. It is expected of customers. The most I will do is.....
"Got discount ah?"
I won't go to measures like
"No discount ah! Round it up lah! Discount Rm5 also can mah!" or etc etc etc I dunno what else they say cuz i dont haggle!
Got then got, don't have then don't have, I will still get it anyway if I like it (=S) I think haggling is very annoying leh. Last time in my dad's shop when customers ask for alot of discounts I sibuey dulan one.
Whatever, this has nothing to do with my original post (!!!)
Anyway, the point of this post is... I went inside this shop, and this auntie shopkeeper was there, who stared at me very unfriendly I may add, but I later found out she just looks angry at all time. her face is >:( twenty-four-seven one.
She was trying to sell her product lah, and I was checking them out. I chose two and didn't know which one to get, cuz I liked both, but I needed only one, and so the auntie gave me her opinion.
Auntie: Take A lah. A is bigger than B. Somemore now "heng" A mah.
Me: But B is nice too.
Auntie: Trust auntie lah, take A. Auntie's daughter-in-law also using A now, she likes it very much! She's around your age, 25-6 years old. Young people like you all should take this, looks very nice, very stylish one!
(eh the conversation above please read it like you're speaking Chinese. I cannot be bothered to type it into perfect English)
So in the end I bought A because it was more convenient to use.
Notice anything wrong with the conversation anot? Apart from the Chinese to English conversion.
She said young people like you 25-26 years old!!!!!!!!!! WHAT THE EFF. I LOOK LIKE 25 YEARS OLD TO HER!
She compared me with her daughter-in-law!!! Married person! Daughter-in-law!!! 25 years old OMG! young people somemore. Kek sei ngor lah.
25 years old. shit. I'm not even 20 yet!

Listen and you will see
What is wrong with the connection. It is slower than a Monday morning!!
Promised I'll upload pictures from Redang but got lazy. They're all on FB anyway. And I'm waiting for someone to get online so she could send me pictures from her camera, but no luck, haven't seen her online for a while. Maybe I'll edit this post when I catch her.
We (our large group of 16) went to Kuala Terengganu by plane, and sat the ferry to the island.
Boarding the plane.
Sunrise =)
The pak cik waiting for us in Terengganu, WITH MY NAME
On the ferry
Um.. we snorkelled most of the time. Played volleyball and Banana Boat as well. And very cliche-like, we buried someone in the beach. Nighttime we just walked around the island, saw "blue sand", they're coral eggs actually I think.
We're lucky lah, the abangs working in our resort were so kind, they went out of thier way to bring us around. They brought us far out in the sea when we were snorkelling, we wanted to see sharks mah, but no luck lah. They dived and caught quite a few "seafood" for us =) HAHAHAHA I have no idea what you call that in English. I only know starfish...
No this is not starfish. This is "hoi sam". Chinese New Year sure eat one.
Then they brought us to see baby sharks
If you can stand a little teasing, (you know some Malay guys lah, teasing is their way of life.) then it should probably be okay. I remember one of the abang kept saying he wanted a Chinese girlfriend. Then he told us his mom doesn't let him have tattoo or something. Another one heard us chatting and came over, telling us he has a tattoo. Being curious we asked to see his tattoo. He was already half-naked, and we cannot spot any on him. Then he pulled off his underwear a little, "tattoo kat sini. mau tengok?" ZZZZZZ no thanks.
Some of us went to play pool/snooker(?) at night, but not me. What for you wanna go indoor when you're already outdoor? So a group of us went to take pictures around Redang, and the abangs became our photographer (!). I'm still waiting for the pictures.
Spot the abangs. Eh but seriously speaking, some of them were very handsome. Not these lah.
Sunrise in Redang.
Nice kan, our legs? =D
The last day of our 3d2n trip. Everyone busy taking pictures.
Both pictures above looks nice right? Of course lah, I'm the one who took it.
This is not as nice as the ones above, because not I take one. It's only nice because I'm in it. =) You can see clearly how dark I've turned from this trip. My arms and legs are different shades from my back.
We went back to Kuala Terengganu by 11am and waited for our 9pm flight. So syok right. Whole day in Terengganu nothing to do. I was suffering withdrawal symptoms from Redang. I can feel myself bobbing up and down as if I'm still in the sea with a life jacket on.
Anyways, the very UNadventurous friends decided to lepak in KFC, cyber cafes, and Pizza Hut till 7pm or so until it's time for us to head to the airport. And me, like I said, why go indoors when you're already outdoors, walked around the town, taking pictures till my camera ran out of battery.
Eh what is Terengganu famous for? Ikan masin?
I have no idea, I simply ordered Bak Kut Teh for lunch.
My faithful friend who was up for the adventure and accompanied me.
Thanks ah, if it wasn't for you I'll be stuck in KFC the whole day.
Apparently this stick-food is only available in places other than KL. It's called Sagun and I felt like an idiot when I asked the vendor how to eat this.
The mak cik said, "buka, koyak, lepas tu makan" Very simple steps =_=
It's a powderish kind of snack, with coconut strips, sugar and peanut nibs in it. Dunno why but it smells like kuih kapit. Everyone from the KL group has never seen it before, while the others from Penang, Pahang and Johor looked at us like we were aliens. Yalah, kampung people eat one. Happy?
We finally made it to 7pm. Rotted in the airport for another 2-3 hours for our delayed flight. Had a fun trip! I give Redang thumbs up =) Eh by the way, the food provided in our resort were delicious! Maybe they add alot of MSG in it.
Something I "stole" from Redang. A rock shaped like my initial.
I have bruises all over my body. Clumsy me did not see where I'm heading, I just rammed my way around, hitting rocks everywhere.
And yeah, the sunburnt part.
Compare my hands and thighs. HUGE difference! practically black and white.

feels like insomnia... aaaah~
Aiyar I have so many catching up to do lah! I downloaded too many movies and series and they're taking up too much space(again)!! Have to watch them and then decide which ones to delete and which ones to keep. Stupid hectic college semester. Can't believe it, it's like I've barely started the semester and now it's the finals already OMG I hate short semesters. See I've been so busy I did not update my blog. No lah I'm lazy actually.
Lemme show you why I've been so busy recently. Get ready for your computer to laaaaaag!
Okay first I went to eat Nando's. Haha nolah that's not why I'm busy. Just wanted to show you the very delicious chicken. Looks nice kan?
I went to the recording studio for Project Laugh (Yao Ni Hao Xiao). I think it's gonna be aired on NTV7 soon. Not sure what time though. Probably weekends.
See!! Gurmit Singh! He's really friendly and funny.
And very much like Phua Chu Kang in person too.
Recognize him anot?
Director always busy one. During break time always listening to phone or taking random pictures with his SLR.
We did 2 recordings in one day. Damn tiring can. We entered the studio in afternoon and went back home around 8 or 9.
I think alot of people watched Money No(not?) Enough 2 right? She's the girl who danced ballet one leh... But lost in the end lah.
Some Malaysian artists we normally see in commercials and local dramas. They're so tall and pretty, unfair =(
Maklumlah this is a candid shot. See my face also know lah. But anyway, my point is... 10jeom manjeome 10jeom! Teeheeheee =)
I have a better picture actually, but I like this scrunched up face of mine. Weird huh. Looks natural ma.
And of course, a picture with Director Neo! He gave me thumbs up =)
Project Laugh aside, I've been doing a PSA for my assignment. To promote the college. Sounds pro anot? TV production leh. Cheap budget one lah. No budget actually =P
We (me and group members) spent a hell lot of time on it man. So proud I can cry a river. 2nd most touching moment this year after the blood donating event.
The members at work.
Busy editing parts and joining them together, while discussing about which transitions and the whatnots to use.
Mac Computer. Looks nice, but not practical. Cannot accommodate more than 3 screens/images in a frame. Lags like hell. Referring to the ones in my college.
Cameo appearence by Chin Chye. Yes his name is pronounced as cincai, the suibian lah that cincai. Never seen his parents before but I give them kudos for their humour.
We worked till so late everyday that by the time I got on the train back home it was already empty. Void of humans. wuuuuu~ The first time I've been on an empty train (and mind you, I take trains on an almost daily basis).
By the way, saw this car with the huge Liverpool emblem on it when we were shooting one of our scenes. No I'm not a Liverpool fan. Just so happen I was wearing red.
And to prove I'm no Liverpool fan, I take pictures with yellow creatures too okay. The yellow man from Digi. Haha he's kind of scary looking from near.
Something random. My mom makes a very nice model =)
I wanna go to Melaka again! Last week because of qingming the cousins had to rush back to Singapore =( Melaka seems like a nice place to backpack travel. Lots of beautiful stuffs to take pictures of.
And yeah, I think I will stop for now. Posted enough for a month I think =X
