Was reading Nicole's new post. It brought me tears and heartache (eh. serious one, it really hurts). And my heart feel very heavy. How can such Cambodians endured such cruelty back then? So sad...

Just read paper today and found that Clinton's out and go to support Obama pula. Maybe this is the best resolution for her. Maybe she knows that she will lose. So the best resolution is to support the potential winner, help him to win and then she can become vice president. Clever tactic.

Heard from Poovan that Bukit Jalil got a very nice and deep swimming pool (about 2 meters deep). Makes me feel like going there and have a swim. Hehe. Entry fee is RM5 if I'm not wrong and free on Friday but only free for a few session.

Of updates, Connie Talbot and poll

Had this conversation with Get Pei today:

Get Pei: Do you know Connie Talbot?
Me: You mean Colbie Calliat?
Get Pei: No. Connie Talbot. She's only 6. And she's very good in singing. Go search her name in Youtube.


And then I went to check in Youtube.

I was amazed. Really amazed. Not only by her singing skills but also her courage to stand in front of hundreds to sing. And better still, she has the gut to sing in front of Simon. I don't. My voice sucks. lol.

Here's some of the clips of her singing. I only choose live performance because that will show her real ability.

The first clip I put is "Over the rainbow" she sang in Britains Got Talent finals. Her voice was a bit shaky. But I think it's because she's nervous in front of Simon. Because her voice in the second clip I put here was not shaky.

And the "I'll always love you" in the 3rd clip I put is of all the best I heard from her live performance. She sounds so unlike a 7 year-old girl!

If you're interested just take a look at these clips. She's amazing!

I had two job offers last week. One is Ministry of Health clinical research assistant position, another one is research associate in a commercial Biotech company.

I turned down the Ministry of Health job very politely. I even googled on "how to reject job offer" so that I won't sound too rude to the HR people. I rejected this nice job because I don't really like the job scope, having to run here and there from hospitals to hospitals and mostly dealing with paper works. This job prospect is good coz one will have the chance to work in MNC pharmaceutical company when one has experience in that field. Those in Biotech field can actually consider going into this field after graduate actually. They don't need an honours for the job. Just a degree will do.


Some might wonder why I rejected such a nice job. It's because I still prefer lab works. That's why I choose the lab work job instead.

After accepted the job offer I suddenly got 2 more calls for interviews and one more informal suggestion for application in the company. One of the calls was from NUS Singapore. I really like the research project. I really put my heart into writing the research interest for the job application. Read a lot of journals in order to write the research interest. This is my first masterpiece which I'm very proud of after my assignments and reports back in Monash time.

But I'll still stick to the job offer I accepted la due to many reasons which I can't even explain to myself. lol. Maybe because there are many reasons that starting to root me to Malaysia, more specifically Selangor.


I think the reasons are mainly
(1) Heng coming back KL soon for holiday
(2) My 3 kids (one new kid joined the rest last week) who are going to sit for SPM this year
(3) My promise to the employer and my boss. I'm not going to break promise. I don't break promises.
(4) The possibility of teaching swimming to earn extra cash after I get my Bronze Medallion cert

(5) Hill climbings (Singapore got hills to climb? Hmm... )
(6) I'm curious about how an industrial laboratory works.


So, yeah. Will wrap up the project that I'm having now and start a new job soon. =) Can't wait to see how an industrial lab works. =D

I had just put up a poll from Nuffnang. Hehe. Just for fun so that I can know more about my readers and so that I know how my blog is doing.

I've notice this poll thing since it first started but I dunno what questions I should put in my poll. So I didn't start a poll. I got the idea for the poll questions from Nicole's and Ice Angel's blogs. Hehe. So copy here and there from theirs.

So please answer the poll yea. Thanks =)

Stickgirl and breakfast??

I found this blog from Kenny Sia's recent post. I like her drawings =) Simple with smooth lines and have strong sense of humour (but mostly black ones).


For example:

Gucci Sale!


IT Show 2008!


No need to draw too many boxes already can express what she wanna say. I had already linked her blog. =P


I wish I can draw freely like her.

I can't emphasize the facial expression in every character I draw.

(Shh.. Don't let people know my parents are artists)

That's why I admire Heng for having the ability to draw characters with good facial expressions in seconds.

Recently I'm really bored with my breakfast. I wanna find new breakfast menu to DIY before work!


My DIY breakfast are always:
-Bread (boring)
-Crackers dipped in Milo (Boring)

If I run out of time I would go to my workplace and buy nasi lemak (boring) or roti bakar (kaya+butter) (boring) as my breakfast. This happens quite frequently recently. lol.


So I'm really bored with my breakfast (did I just said that?). Plus we've got a new fridge with us now. I can put any food that need to be chilled in the fridge. Unlike last time, no fridge means no milk, no butter, no margarine, no fruit jams, no yoghurt and etc etc.

So.... Ideas! Ideas! I need ideas for new breakfast menu! =)




Half boiled eggs?

Not my favourite but still can deal with it if add a lot of soy sauce and pepper powder. But very fast hungry for a big eater like me. Unless I eat 3-4 eggs which can give me high cholesterol.




Pancakes? Good idea. But I need to buy maple syrup and butter just to go with the pancakes. Actually top them up with some peanut butter will also taste good. Or Nutella? Kaka....

Ok. Add flour and eggs to buying list. And maple syrup and butter too =)




Oh ya.. my multipurpose cooker was spoiled.



Will replace myself a multipurpose cooker soon.





Yoghurt?

Cut some fruits like banana, mango or papaya into pieces then mix with fruit-flavoured yoghurt. Yum! Supreme! If served cold it will be even more supreme. Hehe..





Fruit salad?

Not sure whether full enough for me or not. But if the portion is as big as the picture above I think should be enough la.

I think it will be very refreshing to have a bowl of cold fruit chilled overnight as breakfast. Yum!!




Smoothie?

I miss the mix fruit smoothie I had back when I was in secondary school. We blended tomatoes, oranges, apples and carrots all together, add a pinch of salt and some sugar syrup to give a purie-like drink. Very nice taste. Yummy!!

I have no blender with me here. Stop dreaming.





Cereal?

Awww! I miss those hostel times when I had fridge and can store my milk and have cereal as breakfast.



Hmm.. Can't find any other breakfast ideas. Sien.. Anymore breakfast ideas?

Hanging bikini tops

Just read Zhuang's blog. There's an entry which is very meaningful. And I think the girl is so 'bahagia' that she has someone who support her whenever she needs a shoulder. I feel sad for the guy. He treated the girl so well but the girl never accept him. Sigh. Many people don't even appreciate someone beside them who's willing to sacrifice for them.

Sigh. Human is like that. When you can't have it, you want it. But when you have it already, you will forget about how desperate you were to get it.

Since Zhuang told me she wants to advertise her blog. She said she wanna put the blog website on her MSN. Although I'm not as significant as Kenny Sia, but I will try introduce to you - Zhuang and her blog: Hanging Bikini Tops. Her blog name damn sexy lo. lol. But the reason she chose this name is not. Haha. Nolah. It's because the reason is out of my expectation.

Previous blogs reveal

As mentioned in my first post, this is not my first blog. Anyway, feel free to check on my previous blogs if you are interested with what I had been doing before this. =)

Blogspot finally...=D

Finally got to have my own blogspot blog!! Yeay... Always wanted to own blogspot because my friend's blogspots are really nice. This blog has quite a lot of functions, font colours, pictures in the blog and easily remember web address. Haha... Exactly match me. I'm seriously poor in remembering names (eg song titles, artists names, shop name, book name and so on so on....) Many times I don't remember my MSN blog address and I had to google the MSN blog and copy it's address to get mine. Furthermore, it's very hard to open MSN blog page. The slow connection always stop me from writing blogs.


几米的这张作品很像在画我贪睡的样子。 嘻...
