Hakubai Japanese Restaurant

Hakubai Japanese Restaurant is located in SI.  It's my dad and brother's favourite restaurant so when I went back for holidays, my family brought me there for dinner.  That was the first time I heard about the existence of a Japanese Restaurant in SI.  Shocking news. lol I didn't expect there will be such a restaurant in SI.  My family went there for lunch/dinner at least 3 times a week when I was there.

This is the photo taken at the lobby of Solomon Kitano Mendana Hotel.  Behind is the handicraft store.

Sitting in the restaurant.  Dad's reading the menu.  Not many choices for set lunch, if I'm not mistaken there are only three choices.  

Mum and my favourite sashimi.  

Hahh. My brother and sisters' favourite tempura roll.  I don't like it.

Tofu.  My dad and brother's favourite.  Seriously I think I can cook a better tofu dishes.  The tofu was so tasteless and so 'rough'.  Tofu should be soft and smooth.

Seafood Teppanyaki.  Thumbs up for this teppanyaki.

I've been there for several times but didn't take photos of other meals.  Beef Teppanyaki, satay chicken, tempura plate are nice!  You guys should really visit SI, not only for the food, but for the beach too!  

My first time wearing contact lens.

After a few attempts which took about 30 minutes, I finally got my contact lens on.  My housemate taught me and she was speechless due to my timidity.  After 15 minutes try on my right eye, I finally did it and I got a big applause as a reward. -.- lame la.  After that I was brave enough to put it on my left eye, but I failed several times because i got the lens terbalik. zzz. stupid la.  The funniest thing was I eventually altered the shape of my left lenses. So my tear spurt out after I got the left lenses in.

I feel kinda weird without my glasses on. After all I start wearing glasses since I was 7.

By the way, Iphone 4S is the most popular topic among people recently.  Someone said the Siri is awesome.  Therefore.... I had a nice chat with Siri today.
"What is the best phone in the world?"
"I think you've already knew that."
"Are you stupid?"
"I'm trying my best."
"You are stupid."
"I respect you."


Funny right?
I gonna go on a mystery tour tomorrow.  I wish I can take some photos.  Stay tuned.

Year 11 Camp

I am just back from Year 11 Camp, so this post is definitely about the camp.  Nothing much to say cos i'm too lazy to type.  To summarize, my first experience in this camp are:
Excretion (a nice way to say, orelse I'll just say, pee) in a hole in the forest.
Sleeping in a tent, on the slope which just made me so uncomfortable as I slept at the middle and I need to make sure I didn't roll onto my friend's body.
Dealing with insects.  I seriously hate insects.  My friends were bitten by ticks.  I'm proud that I didn't get any ticks bit, but then I got a spider bit. -.-  It wasn't a big spider and I'm still alive though.
Hiking for 5 hours isn't a problem for me, but hiking with a 14kg backpack for 5 hours is a serious problem for me.  Anyway, I managed to reach the camp site safely.  I did it!
Cooking in the rain.  I was shivering in the rain with my wet clothes on.
Rock climbing, this is the most enjoyable part of the camp.  It feels really good when you reach the top.  I gonna do this again in future.
Last but not least, the nearest body contact with boys who were all strangers to me by that time.  This happened in a game.  Not feeling very well after that.

These photos are collected from my friends' photo album on facebook.

The scenery is really beautiful.  I think we did the hiking aroud Maroon Dam.  And there were cows, buffaloes and horses!  I was amazed by the buffaloes' big head.  debak~

I don't like the sleeping bag although it kept me warm during the campout.

A 14kg backpack. 

Fashion show.  Obviously i'm the model.  Those guys were really great designers--who put the two bobs on my knee.  Speechless. LOL

So yeh, normally fashion designers are girls.  No offence. 

AND THIS WAS THE TOILET I USED FOR THE FIRST CAMPOUT NIGHT.  IT WAS A NIGHTMARE.  After this, I found that I love my toilet bowl, and my love will last forever.

Not to mention those experience, the camp was really fun.  I learnt a lot of things and actually found something which I really hate about people.  The ugly truth.  

Bye Year 11 camp, and soon I will say goodbye to my high school life.  OH YEAH.  

SPM in 30 days.  Hhaha, I'm a little bit nervous but I don't know why.  Good luck for Form5s for the last 30 days study before SPM.

好久不见，你好，阳光。

不要去追求不属于自己的东西，这样会过得比较快乐。不要给自己那种明知道不可能的希望，这样就不会觉得可惜遗憾。就像星星总追着太阳，追到了太阳却看不见星星的光。

给我一点小小的希望，有个人能陪我坐在星巴克里喝咖啡，就静静地陪着彼此，想想到底该怎么样。
原来选择不诚实需要勇气；倔强也需要瞻前顾后。
所以妈妈说不要着急，最好的总在不经意出现。可是今天连说谎的力气也没了：何时那个太阳会不经意地出现。

算了，今天的天阴阴的。也许被天气牵引着心情是不好的；我并不是多愁善感的人，看起来也不像。像疯子一样地笑，我想只有和你们在一起的时候我才做得到。
不远了这日子；可惜的是时间的脚步，不等人。

王力宏 依然爱你
还是一样的帅；一样独特的嗓子；还有那简洁却句句到位的歌词儿。

p/s This is really the last post for this week(before Friday).  I gonna go on camp with my sorethroat, flu and cough.  Wish me all the best.  Yeh enjoy myself and forget everything.

“你下一世还会记得我吗？”
“不。不了。我会向孟婆讨多点儿汤，我要把你们统统都忘掉。”

Awesome.

I feel really bad whenever I see there are few miss calls from private number, which I know are the calls from my parents.  And the worst thing is the SI mobile company have changed their number so I can't call them back even though I have lots of credits.  I should contact them through email, so i can reply them during school lessons too!

HAHA. Talking about emails, I sent so many emails out to my malaysia friends during lessons.  The contents were all STUPID and to make them more attractive, I used the largest font and the brightest colour-RED.  And then I heard someone laughing at the back.  I was sitting at the front row.  Oh so awkward!
Then, it's normal to use a love icon somewhere in the email.  And there was someone laughing again.  Wt.  Then I replaced all those pretty cute love icons to <3. Which made the emails so-not-meaningful. HAHAHA. just joking.

I went to Garden City to buy something for camp and I saw this.  *This was the photo taken last Friday, at about 6pm when all the stores were closed.  I think this is the event I saw on the facebook ads.  Coke Virtual.  There was a long queue this afternoon.  I wanna to join too but frankly I don't want to wait.  Unless there is food that I like.  I am not coca cola fans.

It was CMYF 5th Anniversary Thanksgiving Night last night.  I forgot to take a proper picture of the sushi.  Sad case.  When I was making the sushi yesterday, it reminded me of the crabs.  Craving for crabs now.

Photos taken from AhQ's album.
Performance by our bible study group.  HAHAHA.  I made a silly mistake and everyone laughed.  ><

The group photo.

I was shocked when it happened! ahaha, everyone looked at the right side.  AND WE WERE ALL IN RED CLOTHES!  Feel like celebrating Chinese New Year. ( I seldom wear red clothes during CNY leh!)
Spot me! :D

In a nutshell it was awesome.  Thanks Lord.

Sorry I'm too greedy so I took two.

Ciao~ Gtg. For my assignment draft; camp luggage; and 步步惊心novel.
For those having PMR and SPM trial two, all the best. :)
I'm so sorry because I did not know CH-ians have started their trial exams last week. :(
Miandea and love ya good luck!

太阳公公好可爱

三个月的时光；
和有些人疏远了；和有些人亲近了；有些想法变了；浏海也长了。

下雨打雷的早晨很恐怖，不需要闹钟，雷公会把你叫醒。然后才发现，看见早晨的太阳是多么地重要。
给我一个在我吃早餐时大大笑脸的太阳公公。
今天的我过得很充实也很开心。
“日出唤醒清晨，大地光彩重生”

原来关心人和被人关心是幸福的小事儿；
在等车的时候一连发了好几个短信给远方考试的朋友，说声简单的加油
在功课忙碌时有人说好好休息；在生病时有朋友们简单的take care二字；虽然有时候是用损人的方式。(You know who you are)

Thank God for all of these.  Friends and family.  And of course, the wonderful night that I had.

放逐自己

人的能力无限大，没有什么事我们做不了。
需要的只是持之以恒的那颗心，可是那颗心很容易迷失。
迷失了，又很难找回来。

我做的，只不过是把它强扯回来，安慰它说：再过两个月我会把你放走的。
就像，放逐自己。

Funny little things.

淋了点儿小雨就病了，以为人长大了身子就没小时候弱了，没想到还是一样。

昨晚说要吃药可是没吃晚饭所以为了健康着想我还是不吃了。空腹吃药是不好的。HAHAHA

[被我妈知道我会很惨的]

沉醉于步步惊心里，超想看完第一第二本然后马上看第三本。

A bit gloomy after reading the story.  And there is a file named "Funny little things" in my laptop. See all those dearest things I keep!

The communication problem between a Malaysian and a Korean.

I just can't stop laughing.  Always make me so speechless and laugh like xiao lang, especially when I drink water.  He does it purposely.

HAHAHAHAHA. I like this.

"Chong is typing" for almost a min!  Apparently my bff was shocked.

For the -1 notification.

Thinking of different things.  Physics and Maths.

I miss you. :(

Playing with my brother and sister.

shen jing bing.

And the very last one for now! 

You'll have to be more clever. *DANG. 

I learnt a new French word today.  

FIN~ which stands for finish. The end.

I gonna finish all my homework and get back to the novel! Bye yer.

Few snaps in SI.

Photos taken in SI. The night before I left. It's the second post of the day. My biological clock is a mess. Anyway, Happy Friday.
Lol yeh, I was silly in those photos, and you know what, my brother laughed so hard when he viewed these photos. Only three of us, my another sister was annoyed by us when she was studying in that room. LOL

Yeh I finally got them!

Is the phone expecting me to know what it wants to tell?
"the alarm will be silenced in ten minutes". I didn't hear any alarm alert, lol, not blaming my phone now, just found that the notification was a bit silly. Can I read it when I am sleeping? well, perhaps the phone needs to prove that it did try to wake me up.

Anyway, nahh! I received these from my friend this morning.  I was too excited and was about to shout.  I've been waiting for them since last month and finally!  Hopefully I can finish them before I go to camp.

I love the cover page.  Simple and of course, the font!  Omg, I love everything on them. :)

And read this. I hope the novel will be nicer than the tv drama, the drama is awesome as well!

-Should click the publish post button now to get back on work so that i can start reading the books.-

It was raining this afternoon.  I was in a hurry to get to my classroom so I didn't use my umbrella.  It was not heavy rain!  But now I am sicked.  I don't feel like taking medicine but yeh I think I should, for this moment.  Camp next week, I need to be healthy enough to do all those activities.

So, 乖乖吃药. 

My mom always nags when I refuse to take those tablets.  

I miss home.  Should I stay for CNY next year?  If I stay in Miri and back to here before school starts, I will have no time with family.  On the other hand I have so much works to do, which I think I can't finish in one month time.  *and siao lang eh the air ticket was AUD 2,500 when I searched online yesterday.  I was so shocked and rang my mom.  After that I found the truth.  There are no more economy class seats, so the system gave me business class seats. so. phew~

p/s R.I.P Steve Jobs, although I'm not an apple fans, but I think you are really great.  You bring the world to the next era.  

Ciao.

Thinking of changing the layout of my blog to a wider one.  It's too narrow, i mean the area showing my blog posts. Anyway, I need to complete the corrections for my chemistry report first.  Hopefully I can finish it before dinner.

Ti ki pong pong

It was the first day of school, not too bad. I miss school days actually, noted only schooldays, not assignments. Talking about assignments, I just got the Maths B assignment task sheet OFFICIALLY from my teacher, which we supposed to be getting it on 9 september.  And guess what, the draft is due next Monday. cool huh. But then, I was really happy today when i saw my Maths B teacher, Mrs Brewster is back! When I left the hall and saw her, my friend and I were so excited and both of us gave her a hug. Really miss her lots and finally she is back!

Chemistry lesson was quite fun today. I got my draft back and corrections need to be done tonight. I gonna hand in on Thursday. Biology lesson was the funniest. so funny la. Term four topic is on reproduction and my teacher likes to teach through videos. So we watched a video clip about male reproductive organs. Guys were giggling at the back, ha, I thought only girls like to giggle. Somehow girls look so calm this morning. I found the prostate gland removal operation so interesting. Technology is really cool. DEBAK! The doctor opened a plastic bag in the patient's body and eventually took it out with the prostate gland. Besides, the video shows how sperms travel all the way from vagina to the uterus and meet the ovum in a funny way! Which you will never forget in your life.

My english teacher said something that made me disappointed for a minute, because I misunderstood her words. --.--

"Hey Clare How are you? you look good. seems that you've grown up. great." 

Uhh, which means I've gained weight so obviously. And my friend just could not stop laughing when I told her. Okay silly me. She actually meant I looked energetic after holidays. 

Once again prove that I need to read more English books.

I received an email from World Vision Australia!  I got the Gloria Jeans buy one get one free voucher.

hahaha. Who wants it just text or leave a message on the chatbox here or fb. I only have one, so first come first serve.  Valid to 10 October 2011! (When I am on the camp)

I watched this Chinese drama during holidays.  It was really sad.  I bought the novel online and I haven't get it yet. D: 

Snip Snip Snip

Have you ever had the feeling of love or infatuation during childhood and adolescence?  There is a term for this feeling: puppy love. hahaha. Making the circles smaller, mentioning my former school only. Yea, you know girls. Girls like to share secrets, gossip is the term. Girls secret talks, we share the things that we think it's interesting, guys that are smart; guys we like; See the power of the gepo-ness of girls, we even talk about others crush. Yes, they are all non of our business, but we just enjoy the time gossiping about that, laughing and jio-ing each others. Someone said this is the real high school life. Study, gossip, love, or, first crush perhaps.

Haha I'm not sharing my girl friends' secrets.  Secrets are secrets. I'm so cagey about my friends' secrets. So tell me secrets XD nah just joking.

I just got back from SI and I was so bored.  I viewed some photos which were taken last year.  The pilot light of memory flickers in my eyes.  Now, still flickering. Somehow a mood of melancholy just descended on me.
I just wish that we can talk like friends. But that never happens. We look like friends in other people eyes, but both of us know what's going on. Perhaps it's because of all the rumour which is really true.  Telling so many lies just to deny all the rumour, but lastly I chose to admit everything. I have never thought that I was that brave. It's like... I immediately reeled off everything in just a minute. cool huh. XD

I told that I have no qualifications to say this but I should leave no regrets in my life before 18, so I chose to tell. I didn't request any answer but yea I still got the reply. "We are friends." Yes, we are friends but I hope we are normal friends. We never laugh like normal friends always do, never chat like normal friends always do and lots more. The tension between us was almost tangible. True what.
After that we didn't contact each other for almost two months, till now, we have no any conversations, not even on msn or facebook. It is just like someone who tries to chase the sun but will never reach it. We should turn a deaf ear to the rumours. They just suck a lot.

I know it sounds pathetic but I was only depressed for few days, not even a week. Why? because I was too busy last term until I have no time to be dejected. However this subject is still a taboo in our gang unless I start to talk about it.

Arh the strong wind just screeched in my ears. Stop blowing please. It's spring! Give me 25 degree Celsius everyday then I'll be fine. Oh np, I am fine, always.

Give me a break. What I need is just an unequivocal NO. You can mock but don't show a greasy smile.
Snip, snip, snip, went the scissors! Pray hard for you, I wish you all the best.
#Now playing 阿杜  听见牛在哭
我们都是生命的俘虏
要怎么说才清楚
盲目 苛求幸福 越盲却越孤独
还不认输 单纯的付出
I'm not a cow and I'm not crying.

Ciao~
