New home, new start

Hello!!!!! after a long long time "missing" from blogging...

Ever since I came back home (in Malaysia), I've been busy for moving house and these and that... and finally, I'm considered "settled down" in my new home, with my precious family. =)

While enjoying life with my family, some "suay" (unlucky) thing happened too... like... my laptop and modem got struck by lightning la... and then I gotta send out my resume as soon as possible because it's not easy to get a decent job nowadays... sigh...

Good thing is I'm still good with my dear and I really appreciate this relationship. Soon we gonna celebrate our 3 years anniversary and I'm looking forward for that =) Finally he met my dad after such a loooooong time. haha... I think he did pretty good and even come help us move house. ^^

Anyway, just wanna let those who cares for me know, I'm doing good =)


p/s: new home photos will be uploaded.... erm... soon... =p

there you go, take a look of my house =)

I heart my family... a lot

I'm glad that I'm blessed, to have such a wonderful family... =)

My mom and aunt went to Changi to pick me up yesterday, makes me feel so much better because... at least I feel I'm still "wanted"...

I spent a night in my 2nd aunt's house and just came back JB this morning. Then I went to my new house, then had lunch with my family. It was a nice and sweet time with them and I know they love me a lot...

What a good way to end my long vacation...

with tears...








Tokyo is my last stop for this long trip. I enjoyed the 3 full days I spent over here especially the visit to Mt Fuji, the view was awesome. Been ride on the famous bullet train, wow! you can't imagine how fast was it until u really saw it! it takes just 8 seconds for 2 trains with 14 cabins each to passby each other in a different direction!

The first night in Tokyo was pretty ok, except the fact that, we have to wait for 5 subway trains to actually get in due to the super packed rush hour... thank god the train come very frequently, like 2-3 minutes each train.

Everything here is small. The lifts, the houses, the vehicles, the rooms... even the people over here are all "small size". LOL... so much different from the United States. And I think we actually got another culture shock again after 5 months in USA. haha...



Well... I'm gonna go home today.

I was very excited to go home earlier on, but not until I found out... the people I love the most wasn't able to come and pick me up from the airport. That feeling isn't nice. I feel sad. Real sad... and the excitement to go home vanished immediately.

In the end it will be my aunt and uncle and cousin in Singapore coming to pick me from the airport (I think)... And I'm gonna spend a night in their house and then go back home the next morning... though I dunno how am I gonna go back home and who will come to the custom to pick me...




The things that really break my heart was a conversation between me and my bf through msn few hours ago...
I was pretty calm during the conversation. But I lose control before I went to bed last night...



I wish it was just a bad dream.
I wish it will be gone after waking up in the morning.
I wish I wouldnt be such a fool to believe what I used to believe...
I... I just cant accept... what's gonna happen next. but I'll prepare myself for the worst...
though I wasnt expecting this to happen... at all.



You broke my heart when u said " I dunno how to love u..."
What's love, to u?

Los Angeles, another, pretty disappointing city

Now I believe, the bigger the city, the worst the way people treating each other.

LA is a very complicated place.
It was so huge that everywhere you go, it's FAR. And everything you see on the TV about hollywood, well... it was just .... like that only. nothing much.

We went to Beverly Hills and saw alot of Hollywood stars' property and houses but mostly only get to see how huge is the yard and how tall the is gate. wth... LOL...

Went to Universal studio and Warner Brother's studio on the same day and trust me, they were both good but it's still more recommended to go Universal, Orlando instead of the one in LA, it's way too small. We got to see the "behind the scene" of lots of familiar films and dramas. It's pretty cool but cruel at the same time as what we actually found out was, we were being fooled all the while by the "CGI"-computer-generated imaging technique which made the scene looked so real.

We took 2 hours bus and went all the way to Santa Clarita for Six Flags Magic Mountain on our final day in LA. Unfortunately, it was another disappointment for them being too commercialized and everything was just $$$$$$$. The entrance fee was comparatively very cheap for a themepark like this, but you know what? They try to squeeze all your money by not allowing outside food and drink and selling "flashpast" at very high price (even higher than the ticket price) if you want to skip all the lines and get on all the rides they have in the park. For us, you wont believe that in 5 hours time we only get to ride on 3 rides!!! 4 hours bus journey and 5 hours in the park, only made it to 3 rides. Sounds crazy huh? YEA, americans are crazy. They really made me feel that way. LOL...

However, the rides we got on were all great and worth the wait. Just that... we dont really like that kind of system if compared to Walt Disney (they are way too good)... Anyway, I'm now in Tokyo, having a very tight budget and hopefully I'll have a great trip before I landing Sg and Msia =p

my journey continued -- San Francisco -> Las Vegas

After the scary New York adventure, fortunately we got to relax and gain back some "energy" in San Francisco.



Very nice weather in San Francisco, but sometimes the wind was just too strong that I can't stand the coldness. The Chinatown in San Francisco was amazing. It felt like we were in HongKong when we first got there and everywhere (seriously I meant EVERYWHERE) you see chinese, speaking cantonese (obviously most of them are from Hong Kong) and lots of cheap vegetables, fruits, herbs... really feel the difference and as if we were backed home....


Anyways, after the busy, crazy life style in New York, we had a good time in San Francisco and even though there's nothing much to do (not much place of interest to go) there, we still like it and enjoyed our stay.

Our journey then continued in Las Vegas.

Somehow I felt depressed being in the middle of desert. LOL...
Basically we just walked around hotels along the strip and shopping in World of Coke, M&M world and outlet mall and then went to the Grand Canyon on the 3rd day.

The buildings and the free show provided by the hotels were amazing and you can really see that they put a lot of effort in attracting people to go and the business is very compatitive. The M&M world was just sooooo fantastic and there were even a free 3D movie for you when you get to the 3rd floor.

Grand canyon trip was ok and the skywalk... OMG, you cant go if you scare of height. haha... fortunately I'm not =p

Horrible first night in New York City

Our first night in New York... OMG... freaking scary and nearly gotta sleep on the street!!!

Our luck was not very good on the date of departure, we were stucked in the Orlando airport for 7 hours because the flight to NYC delayed 6 hours... We then got there late and 3 of us got our own things to suffer: Li Yiung's super heavy backpack on her back, Li Wei's broken luggage handle and me, 2 big luggages. We took airtran and subway and walked over 10 streets to the place we supposed to stay. The subway was so terrible and dark and scary. It looked just like those haunted train in the horror movie... Furthermore, it was freaking cold that night but we've walked soo much until we cant feel anything but tiredness.

When we reached the 60th street (where we supposed to stay), we couldnt find the Hostel! 3 of us took turns walked along the whole street trying to look for the sign but non of us saw it. Even my friend in New Jersey trying to locate the hostel for us but still, we failed to find it. In the end, we have no choice but to wait for my friend coming all the way from New Jersey and booked us a hotel in New Jersey for stay. He really did help us a lot and I'm really glad and feel blessed to have a friend in such a messy and scary city.

By the time we settled down in New Jersey, it was already 11:30pm and all of us hate New York City to the max. It was full of the blacks and a lot of rude people... Well, even though we have not have really explored NYC yet, I hope everything will get better when we return tomorrow. Here now in Washington, DC was much peaceful and nice compared to NYC. Although we are still surrounded by a lot of blacks (practically the whole bus were blacks everytime we go onboard and it's pretty scary too!) and there's nothing much to do other than the museums and zoo, the metro train and the buildings here are much much nicer and cleaner and we really do like DC =)

Miami and Walt Disney World in Florida

Time really flies... when you dont want it to pass so fast!

1 week+ has gone since I started the traveling part of this program. I'm now stucked at the Orlando International Airport, flight to New York City was delayed for 6 hours... what a boring moment but thank godness, free internet access and hence I've got time to update my blog finally despite of the very pack traveling schedule.

Throughout the whole trip in Florida, it was super fun but tiring. Everyday we went out early and got back home with exhausted body. haha... The hostel in Miami was pretty good too. Located at good location and I met a lot of people from German, Paris, Australia, Argentina and so and so... The beach was nice, weather was nice and we really enjoyed ourselves. It's very relaxing and I love beach!!!





In Orlando, the hotel we stayed was really super good. The room and service and all were good and we paid at a very reasonable price. 4 days continuously going to the 4 different parks of Walt Disney was so damn tiring. Day 1 we were very excited, day 2 started to feel exhausted, day 3 and day 4 became more and more lazy to take pictures and we going slower and slower. LOL... Really respect those parents bringing their kids walking around Disney under the hot sun and pushing the stroller everywhere for their kids... Pins in Disney were sooooo expensive and some of them can even have more pins on them than those Disney worker... OMG...



Anyways, Walt Disney is a very very amazing place!!!! The system and everything was good, and thanks to the "fastpass", we got to ride on all the major attractions and rides and had fun throughout the 4 days in Disney.... A place where I never dare to dream of going, becoming true....
