:: because i told you so ::


If i gave you the sky,
If i laid down my life,
Would you believe me then?

If i promised to change,
If i carried the blame,
Would you believe me then?

Could you see it like me,
And believe what i see,
Could you listen, and remember that i love you,
Only, because i told you, because i told you so.

If you told me you lied,
But i stayed true and tried,
Would you believe me then?

And if your beauty was gone,
But my love lingered on,
Would you believe me then?

Could you see it like me,
And believe what i see,
Could you listen and remember that i love you,
Only, because i told you, because i told you so.

You take the wheel for now,
I'm too tired to drive this one home anyhow,
For now.

And when you mention my name,
Let this one thing remain,
My love, believe me now.
-Jonatha Brooke-

Hmmm. I told you so. =) If you only remembered.

:: of university and orientation bashes ::


WOOOT!! ELLIE IS FINALLY IN UNIVERSITY!!!! =)

After all the whining that i was BORED and blablabla, and Alan doing my countdown for me, i'm finally in uni! Wheee! =)

Heehee. I know i'm very jakun so shaddap and read. Lols. Gawd, after the *not-so-agonizing-* wait for uni to start, i finally got through the FIRST week of uni! Whee. For those of you who are not informed, i'm currently doing my Bachelor of Business & Commerce degree in Monash University Malaysia. *grins proudly* I know i was a bit bummed about not being able to go to UWA after sitting, waiting and wishing to go but Monash isn't really bad after all. Except for the environment la. It still looks like a basement to me. :P

But the PEOPLE RAWKS! hahahah.

Okay, for the first week, i went for introduction lectures and tutorials. Which is very common i'm sure. My lecturers are hmm...quite fascinating. My Intro To Micro-Econs lecturer abit juling. Heh. And botak too. But he's alright i think. My Introduction To Accounting A lecturer talks a lot. I suspect his words but hmm...shall not pass judgement in the FIRST lecture la hoh? :P I miss Ms.Pun. >.<

My Managing People in Organisations lecturer is VERY nice. And she speaks brilliant english. I've got a thing for people who speak good english. Makes me listen to them more. *grin* My Business & Econs Stats lecturer pulak abit to the cina side. Lols. Because of Yenyen i laugh whenever she goes, "probality" instead of probablity and "fucktuations" instead of fluctuations. I blame you, Yenyen. I'm the only one who laughs whenever she does it ok!! NOBODY gets it. >.< Sighs.

My tutors are all alright too. :) I don't really know my tutorial mates yet though. I thank God so much for Shuet Zin for teman-ing all the way coz she is still an illegal student at Monash for not submitting her IELTS yet. So, she's been following my timetable! Hope she stays with me! *grin* :)

Alright. That summarises my first week. Oh wait, i forgot the important part...I've already got assignments to do. =.=" SO not cool. And one of them is due in 2 weeks. Blah. Wish me luck. ;)

ORIENTATION BASH!!!!! :) It ROCKED!!! :) I had GREAT fun...gawsh! It was really nice of the *buddies* (voluntary seniors from the student council) to organise the orientation bash at Sunway Lagoon! =) Although i have multiple bruises and walking is a CHORE right now, i'm REALLY glad i went! Hee.

I met some really nice new friends and of course, got to know a few seniors as well! They're so fun man!! Lols. I know i sound jakun again. >.< Maybe i've been deprived from meeting new people. Lols.

From L-R (top) : Kenneth, Zen (buddy), Preston (buddy) and Shuet Zin! (bottom) : Millicent, Michelle, Stephanie and me! =)

There are 4 people from my group that are missing in the picture (oops!) but these people made orientation fun! AND these people all contributed to the fact that WE WON THE ORIENTATION GAME!!!! Wooot!! =) The orientation game was somewhat an amazing race thingy with dares for us to do!

Our first dare was to ride the Tomahawk (the ride that goes 360 degrees) while singing a nursery rhyme! Lols. Abit corny but wth. We did it anyway! We sang Baa Baa Black Sheep, btw. :P After that, we had to earn RM1 from a stranger in Lagoon. Which was pretty easy coz we spotted a foreign couple and we sang a couple of songs to them. It was abit funny coz they were SO sporting with us singing nursery rhymes. To think we're in university. Gahhh. Lols. But it's all good. :P

The rest of the dares were collecting water from the water rapids and the grand canyon with certain rules. Like filling cups only with the splashes or soaking our clothes with water and then trying to fill a bucket. >.< The whole idea was to get really REALLY wet la. With murky water. HAHAHHAHAHA. The ironic thing was that, i went for the orientation ONLY because i wanted to ride the teacup. For FREE!! Lols. I wasn't even PLANNING to get wet. Oh wells. >.< I did go into the wet park though. Until i had to get home early that is. Cacats. This whole being cinderella thing is just annoying. Sigh. Cinderella had to go back by 12am!! Who ever heard of her going back by 5pm??? Sheesh.

Oh, just for the record, MY TEAM WON THE ORIENTATION GAMES!!!! WOOOOT!!! I'm damn happy man. Our team had the MOST girls, and NONE of us chickened out from ANY rides, AND we got back to base 4 minutes before time. Kudos to us!! Haha.

What i learnt at orientation :

#1. Tomahawk is FUN. Especially when you're singing Baa Baa Black Sheep non-stop.

#2. The pirate ship ride can do SERIOUS damage to your boobs and groin area. SO not kidding. The safety braces are just PAINFUL i tell you!!

#3. It's strangely mind-numbing going on the shoe ride. Round and round you go...I STILL think it's not fast enuf. >.<

#4. Always turn your top the right side up before you put them on again!! Hahaha. Sorry, Steph! :P

#5. LC1 and LC2 actually stands for Leng Chai 1 and Leng Chai 2. =.=" My buddies are insane. >.<

Alrighty! Off to bed  now! Will update again soon!

Ellie, over and out! *winks*

:: oh boy oh boy!! ::


Maybe it's the nice and relaxing walk i had from my house to the bridge opposite 19 by myself.

Maybe it was my little chat to that fat cat i passed by.

Maybe it was the fresh air.

Maybe it was 7.50am in the morning (a time that i've not seen for 6 months) and the sun is just peeking from the trees.

Maybe it was my craving for thosai being promptly satisfied.

Maybe it was the smell of Sookie's maggie mee goreng being cooked.

Maybe it was the amusing walk back to Roobsy's house with Guang.

Maybe it was just lepaking at Roobsy's house playing with his walkman phone because i was locked out of the house. Again.

Maybe it was the refreshing bath after the walk home.

Maybe it was the even more amusing lunch after that refreshing bath.

Maybe i was just high from the 2 cups of iced milo i had during breakfast.

Maybe it was the continuous laughter that made my tummy hurt.

Maybe today, and right at this moment, i'm HAPPY.

                                          *****

Edit : I just got tagged. Lol.

1. Thank the person who tagged you.

2. List five random/strange/weird things about you.

3. Tag five other people.

First of all, i thank dear Sook Wai for tagging me. Lols. :)

Secondly...the random/strange/weird things about me. Hmm.

#1. I talk to myself. Especially when i'm doing work. No, really, i do. And i bet you do too. *huffily*

#2. I tend to repeat myself all the time. Look! Look! *happy happy joy joy!* Heehee.

#3. I can cry and laugh at the same time. Not a pretty sight. *snorts*

#4. I have a baby pillow that i sleep with. I'm so attached to it that i wake up every time my baby pillow falls on the floor.

#5. I wear sport shoes for kids. Adidas Superstar rawks. *grins* Nyeks.

I tag... Whoever that wants to do this. Lol.

:: my 5th farewell? ::


Yes, have not blogged in a month or so, my sincere apologies. Haven't been in the mood lately you see. Been too busy stuffing my face with cookies, oranges, and uh, other chinese new years goodies you can think of. Not to mention, going around to collect my beloved angpows! *grin* it's not "chap goh mei" yet! Wanna give me, still can.....hahhaha. :)

Well, here we go again!

Victim of my tribute this time is *drumroll* Ng Yen Hou. *grin*

So, my dear friend is going off to Monash Australia and leaving ME behind in crappy Monash Malaysia. How kind of you, sweetie. :)

Us girls at Yh's farewell in Asia Club. Roobsy's BACK!!! :)

So, this friend of mine who's leaving *ahem* TONIGHT, well, i've known him for coming 7 years ady horr? So long. :) More than some marriages. *grin*

He is my fellow lepak-ing prefect and dependable computer-fixing person.

He punches me whenever he sees me. Why, i have no idea. Am i really so punch-able? Lols.

He comes over whenever he likes and calls people up whenever he feels like it too. :)

He's a rough lil' boy in a man's body. Still growing, i hope? *grin*

He who loves them spaghettis and meatballs. Secret Recipe's one sucked hor? Bleks.

He whose love life keeps us all aghast. Hahahhaa. Maybe i should leave this at that. ;)

He who ahbsolutely HATES it when i call him the little pet name i have for him since uh, form 3. I STILL think yenyen is better than houhou. *sticks tongue out*

He who i ahbsolutely love to bits and pieces. My dearest tai-kor. =)

Since i have absolutely no idea whether i can send you off today, and that's because you so smart choose the date when people have "chap-goh-mei" dinners, this is my goodbye message to you. I wish you all the very best. =) Have fun and DO take care of yourself. None of this playing games till morning nonsense okay! Or i'll smack you!

Since you'll *hopefully* be back in 4 months time, i shall just leave this tribute at that and hope you have a safe flight. *huggles*

Yenyen's trademark "ham-sap-loh" look. *grin*

And because i'm going to miss you so much, and wouldn't want you to kill me when you get home, i shall post up the best picture of us.

Ahhhh, will miss you, babe. :) *smiles*

:: something there ::


So the allocation time is opened for me to sort out my timetable for Monash. It sucks, i tell you. I was expecting to go for class at 8am and *hopefully* be done by 12pm. Tough chance. >.<

My earliest class is at 9am. (which is somewhat a good thing!) but the latest i end is at 5.30pm. *mock faints*

And most of my classes are like concentrated in the afternoon, LECTURES in the afternoon. >.< Afternoons are for naps. *sigh* I have to not sleep for the 22 consecutive days if i'm going to change my lifestyle. Blehs

On a lighter note, i'm in my Disney mode again. =) Happy happy joy joy! Hee! =)

And i've worn my precious kebaya.

Bro and i. =) I look like a pear right?? but my kebaya so prettttyyyyy. hahahaha.

Sister, bro and i. In our full gear.

Me and a family friend, Su-Yin.

Dad's staff, can't remember her name already, Su-Yin, Emy and me! Our clubbing scene. Lol.

My brother took this pic. Hence, the looking downwards. And the cacat quality. >.<

Whatta fun night. *grin*
