Night of Darts

Last week, I received a sudden call from Johanna to have a night out with her brother & friends. At first I said no because I had a pile of work to finish. However, I managed to finish some work faster than I expected so at the end, I joined them also. I didn’t know the place they were heading actually, all I knew the place is in Scott Garden.

Since it was a casual Friday night, my choice of outfit was a cage back top paired with a high waist short. :)


Overnight Johanna has became my little sister. hehe!

We went to i Dart which is the first electronic dart pub in Malaysia (according to Sam). lol. I think the last time I played darts was during primary school & it wasn’t this kind of fancy type as well. The ones I used to play are the ones selling in toy stores which you bring back home & hang on the wall. haha!

We had 3 bottles of Gold Label that night if I’m not mistaken.

Oh yea, since they go there every week so they have practically became the VIPs which explains why we had our own private area. heh. I was hesitating to play in the beginning because I knew I suck in it & secondly I didn’t want to injure anyone with my uncontrollable flying darts. But guess what, I didn’t totally suck! As a matter of fact, I like to play darts after playing with the guys. Thanks to Sam for teaching me as well & he too overnight has became my brother. ^.^

PJ in action with his darts. :P

Now with PJ.

I’m really glad that I went out with them or not I would have miss out so much fun! Also I wouldn’t know that dart is such a fun game to play if I skip out the night. We drank a lot & quite fast too, considering the way we drank the whole time was bottoms up only. *no eyes to see* lol! Though I had a slight hangover the next day, I truly enjoyed myself that night. *big wide smile*

In ‘Chalk and Cheese’ viewers will be able to witness how Jojo & Chef Tommes share their passion for food despite both of them coming from two very distinctive background, from appearance to personalities to working environment. He has spent most of his working life in a professional kitchen where she has spent most of her carreer in the entertainment field, either in front or behind a camera.

Says Struys, “I love new challenges. Food was a genre I was passionate about but I had never done a food show. Working alongside such an experienced chef was a priveledge. I’ve learnt so much!” Previously Jojo Struys had hosted various health programmes in the past , she knows her food well to know what are the benefits of certain ingredients. At the same time, Chef Tommes ‘makes it tasty’ with the array of dishes he cooks.

Executive Producer/Director of Kyanite.tv, Michael Lim says, “Filming Chalk and Cheese was a very different experience from the travel and reality shows we usually produce. This show was all about the details, and bringing out the vibrant colours of every dish and capturing the chemistry of Chef Tommes and Jojo. They are really different people but they just clicked. We had a blast!”

Are You Sure You’re Alone? Forever?

Have you realize that this month’s trend is #foreveralone or #aloneforever? I guess is most probably because of the influence of Valentine’s day. For those of you who have someone to celebrate with, good for you then. However not all of us are that fortunate yet to have that special someone to celebrate with. Hence, if you have been observant enough, you can see single people (including myself) tweeting, facebook-ing about being alone, no one want to be with me & blah blah blah...

Normally people tends to take the fact of being alone to be a bad thing. But… if you can look at it properly, you can actually see the silver lining at the end of the road. Don’t get what I mean? Well then you have to watch this video produced by my friends. ;)



“I've always believed that 'Friend-zoning' happens in life, there is no doubt about that. And in a way, there are certain stages that it goes through. But just maybe.. "Forever Alone" ceases being forever when we find the right zone to be in.” Quoted from the director.

Here are the people who are responsible in making this moving video. :)

Writer & Director: Ming H.
Co-director, Videography & Editing: Bryan LYT
Music by: Edwin T. & Ming H.
Cast: Marianne T., Sam C., Ming H.
Narration: Ming H.

If you prefer to watch it on YouTube, here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkvri2N0AFU&feature=share ; also, if you like it then you might want to be a subscriber like me. *winks*

FYI, Ming Han is my senior in my university while Bryan is my high school friend & Sam. C is the craziest party person I know. Great job guys! *thumbs up*

To be really honest, after watching this video I was moved, genuinely I was & I’m still actually. Then something deep inside of me realize something… I’ve experience it before… I went through what the girl portrait in the video. A sudden conscious feeling arise within myself; I feel guilty. Towards the guy whom I unconsciously put him through the process of being there for me when I needed someone to hold onto & didn’t realize he soon developed feelings for me. By the time I realize it, I took the coward road & pretended nothing has happened. If you’re reading this, I hope you can accept my sincere apology. Despite of what has happened so far, I’m really thankful that you still being a good friend to me. Thank you…

I hope for those who are reading this, you’ll be able to learn something from watching this video. For the mean time, just believe because is just a matter of time. :)

Smile Even Through Your Tears

Time passes by fast don’t you think so? Somehow I feel my semester 1 is flying with jet speed. Started the semester in the beginning of January & now is already near to end of February where my midterm is just right around the corner. Not forgetting the continuous assignments which comes right after the other. To be honest, I can’t keep track with the number of assignments I have & when they are due as well. *smack forehead*

Nonetheless with all the work at hand, I still manage to find time to relax & have fun with friends. If I don’t do that, I think I will go nuts doing work & assignment all the time. Like the saying goes, ‘all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy’. *giving excuses* lol! Thank you God I have friends who can't stand to be at home. teehee! Normally I won’t have much time to camwhore unless the person fetching me comes very late; hence this explains the vain photos below. XD

That person came quite late so I had a lot of spare time after dolling up myself. You know who you are. *coughs coughs* :P But it would definitely be more fun if I had someone to camwhore with; two is better than one right. hehe. After nights of party, is time to get back on assignments & work. Still having trouble in doing my assignment especially when the concept has change from being a 10-person-job to one person job. So can you imagine the amount of workload needed to be done? *big sigh*

I got to start on my assignment now. Ciao peeps! ;)

Taking Charge of My Life

SAM_4054

As you travel through life there are always those times
When decisions just have to be made,
When the choices are hard, and solutions seem scarce,
And the rain seems to soak your parade.

There are some situations where all you can do
Is simply let go and move on,
Gather your courage and choose a direction
That carries you toward a new dawn.

So pack up your troubles and take a step forward
The process of change can be tough,
But think about all the excitement ahead
There might be adventures you never imagined

Just waiting around the next bend,
And wishes and dreams just about to come true
In ways you can't yet comprehend!
Perhaps you'll find friendships that spring from new things

As you challenge your status quo,
And learn there are so many options in life,
Perhaps you'll go places you never expected
And see things that you've never seen,
Or travel to fabulous, faraway worlds
And wonderful spots in between!

Perhaps you'll find warmth and affection and caring
And somebody special who's there
To help you stay cantered and listen with interest
To stories and feelings you share.

Perhaps you'll find comfort in knowing your friends
Are supportive of all that you do,
And believe that whatever decisions you make,
They'll be the right choices for you.

So keep putting one foot in front of the other,
And taking your life day by day...
There's a brighter tomorrow that's just down the road -
Don't look back, you're not going that way.

Valentine’s Day With The People I Love

Hey boys & girls, how was your Valentine’s day? I had an awesome time celebrating with my three best friends. *super big wide smile* Unfortunately Reiko couldn’t join in as she was busy celebrating with her man. lol. Nonetheless, we ladies certainly had as much fun celebrating like others. All of us were having classes during the day; hence we planned to celebrate at night. When Jaime & Amber picked me up from my place, we decided to have our dinner at Midvalley.

As expected, almost all the dining areas were packed but luckily we managed to get a place @ Delicious.
While waiting for our meals; Jaime & Amber. :)

The answer is shopping! *whoots* Accompanied Amber to get her heels which she was desperately looking for one. After a few shops, she managed to find a pair of black heels at Nose.

While waiting for Amber, Jaime & I utilized our time fully. :P

Asahi Night @ The Library

Last week I got my hands full with assignment so I didn’t have much time to do anything else. However, luck was on my side because I completed my assignment at the nick of time for Asahi beer night.  Not forgetting the fantastic companions I had that night as well. I got to say my life is getting better by the minute. ;)

With Johanna, Jiayeen & Ashley.

In addition, it was also the grand launch of The Library, located at Subang Jaya. Killing two birds with one stone don’t you think so. hehe. The first thing greeted me was the cool Asahi Draught which of course, was free flow for the entire night. *evil laughs* XD

The main performance of the night was a band called Mad Sally. All of them came from Germany & they have been living in Malaysia for quite some time. I went nuts when they played songs like Boogie Wonderland by Earth, Wind & Fire, Stayin' Alive, F*ck You by Cee Lo Green, It's My Life by Bon Jovi & so much more. My body couldn’t stop dancing listening to songs & I danced until I sweat profusely!
