Wow. Thank you Jeff for reminding me that I’d been letting this place to collect dusts. Those who don’t know me IRL might had thought I’d disappeared in Guangzhou XDD ( Guangzhou was EXCELLENT, and I really fell in love with the food there I almost wished I didn’t have to come back )

Photo taken when I was walking towards my Grand Uncle’s house

Seriously, the food. It’s AMAZING aaaaaaaa ( also, my relatives there really indulged us ;A; And I get to eat roast goose nearly everyday *lovessssss* Best thing since sliced bread? Possibly best thing even before bread was invented ♥ )

Also, don’t ask me about the various unidentifiable animal parts that I’d eaten. Anyway, it felt like a thousand and one things had happened since I got back from the trip and I’d been too lazy to write. Namely :

☆ Catching up with work in the office *headdesk* Is not really good especially since I’d been away on a fun week-long holiday.

☆ Fion and Darren’s wedding. They’re my hometown schoolmates and I was part of the sister entourage. Much lulz ensued when the brother entourage were pretty much pwned upside down by the girls. Also, meeting up with friends I had not seen in YEARS was so strange and yet so heart warming ;A; Plus it’s hilarious to see your ex-classmates whom you’d known for so many years drunk XD

☆ Dad’s birthday! Happy 50th birthday this year, Dad! ( We went out for dinner and had a small celebration. His god-son brought cake ) Sorry I spent like most of the time at home playing Gundam 00 : Gundam Meisters with lil’ brother and not doing much else ^^;;

☆ Mel and Jijoe’s wedding! This is the first Malay wedding I’d ever attended. The atmosphere was wildly different from the rowdy Chinese weddings I’d attended so far XD Congrats to both of you!

☆ Is still playing Hakuouki like the fangirl I am. Only now I can distract myself combo chaining in Gundam 00 when I feel particularly destructive ( the combo chaining was funnn albeit kinda stressful ). Toudou Heisuke full CGs GET! <3 Two.. more... characters to go..

☆ I’d got a bunch of stuff over last weekend. My VAMPS’ Birthday tour pamphlet from Azuzora ( yaaaay thanks! ), chocolates from whiterabbit who got it from Singapore and ELIZABETH’S PLUSHIE from Jeff XDDD

☆ Watched a bunch of movies in the cinema over the few weeks. Hana Yori Dango Final ( it’s light weight fun but it ended up booooooooooring because it’s TOO DAMNED LONG. And not enough Rui and Naohito Fujiki ;A; ), Tropics Thunder ( LOVED IT XDDD It’s so sad that Malaysian cinema are so behind with these releases :\ ) and Quantum of Solace ( WTF. I hate the title sequence and song. But the movie was pretty entertaining )

☆ Penang trip with my ex-colleagues over the weekend. Awesome AWESOME fun food filled short trip! Will hopefully post pictures later? 8D;;

☆ I may be the slowest j-rock fan in this part of the world but I’d just discovered that X-Japan will be having a concert in Bangkok on 31st January! BANGKOK, THAILAND! WE’RE PRACTICALLY NEIGHBOURS!!! is totally plotting and saving money to haul my ass over there already

☆ Sam’s coming back to Malaysia this week! I missed her so much and I hope we’ll both find time to hang out before she has to fly back to Australia

☆ Coincidentally, today is November 18th. Marking a full year since I cheered, laughed and cried at beloved Siam Shade’s reunion concert in Japan last year. Time really does fly ;A;

Also, I’d finally sorted through my Guangzhou photos folder. I’m probably too lazy to write about it in details, so expect photo-log to kill your bandwidth? 8Dv

Heading off to Guangzhou early morning tomorrow for a week. I’ll be visiting my Grand Uncle there with my Mum, Grandaunt and Aunt. So … this means I’ll be behind the Great Firewall of China with no ready access to the internet nor the PC 8DD;;

I hope Guangzhou has good food :3

26th July 2008 @ Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade

I’m on medical leave today O_O; Seems like I’d got a bout of food poisoning and it isn’t really pretty for me to be puking my lungs out the whole night yesterday ;__; I’ll usually welcome a day off like this but it’s NOT WHEN I AM ALL WOOZY from medicines and stupid inner malfunctions ORZ

Hmm I guess this will give me time to work more on side projects? Provided that I’m not distracted by Final Fantasy IV on the DS that is D:

I might be too lazy to blog and post pictures about all my misadventures in ShenZhen and Hong Kong 8D;; So I’ll be posting a blurry panda picture now and I think the adorable-ness of them big, clumsy, utterly UTTERLY CUTE animal will be sufficient for now \8D/ I R GENIUS

 
By the way, guess where was my first stop as soon as I left the airport last evening at 7p.m.?

Summit @ Subang Jaya for the THX cinematic glory 8DDDD ( thank you people so much for putting up with my selfishness and fangirly-ness 8D Though I’m sure you all wanted to rewatch The Dark Knight ANYWAY XDD )

BATMANNNNNNNNN <3 <3 <33 And The Joker was completely AWESOMELY FREAKY. ( Oh Heath Ledger T__T ) I'm SO going to watch this again. On iMax 8D Most definitely. And now for all the other movies I missed in the silver screen the two weeks I was away D: And not to mention rewatching The Dark Knight for as much as I cannnnn

Will be leaving the hostel in less than half an hour to wait for the bus to the Airport D:

I seldom take buses even in my home country D: Wish me luck. Hong Kong’s HOT HOT HOT like nobody’s business. WTF. Even a short walk in the street in the evening after showering made me dashed back to the hostel to bathe all over again T__T Imagine an afternoon in Ocean Park yesterday. Sweating profusely, that’s the word T__T I’m sure I got a tan again and I really didn’t want it ORZ

But Giant Pandas are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO KYUUUUUUTEEEEEEEEEEE I wanna roll around with them eeeeeeeee <3

It was only about two months since my trip to Hong Kong for this and I will be setting foot there again tomorrow from Shen Zhen O_o;

Quite and unexpected turn of events. And I’ll be roaming the bustling city on my own the whole day on Saturday 8DD;; Wish me luck! And hope I’ll be able to order food properly XDDD *can’t read Chinese menu ORZ*

Meeting up with my friend Mizuki on Sunday and flight back to Malaysia on Monday afternoon So, see ya next week!

 
Frankly speaking, I’ll miss my colleagues here in Shen Zhen an awful lot ;___; They’re such lovely people XD

You may or may not know but when I was working for my ex-company the design department works on a hell lot of Pepsi’s POSM collaterals such as posters, shelftalkers, buntings, signages etc . I personally was working on a number of soft drinks related labels I swore I will avoid drinking them at any cost. Especially on my last month or so there, I was working 90% of the time on Pepsi related items. It was so bad to the point that I was sure I know what is their official logo colour codes in PANTONE in my sleep.

True story : When I started playing Final Fantasy VII : Crisis Core, one of the first few things that made me spazzed out was that it uses the very same font as Pepsi ads does XDD ( Yanno, the “Activating Combat Mode” , “Mission Accomplished” and all that jazz? It’s in Serpentine, baby XD )

Anyhow, that was why when I was out in ShenZhen yesterday the first thing that struck me when I saw a local Pepsi billboard was :

“Mann… how can this goes out in the public? Client’ll have our heads for the COLOUR of their drinks O_O;”

Maybe the local Pepsi here has a red tea flavour? 8D;;

Some thing seems to be embedded straight into my brain already thanks to the crazy working life ORZ And I can’t get rid of it no matter how bad I want to T__T I don’t memorise their Pantone colour code in my sleep already that’s for sure XD;;;
