What about Me ?

After I wrote a post about my good friend Memory, another friend of mine went to post a message on my Facebook. What about me ? he asked. When I saw his message, I laughed.


Meet Ken the Barbie. Laughed* Just kidding. He is Ken the Engineer. We were the 1st batch of Malaysian students who came to study abroad in DKIT. Winked* Oh well... nobody knows about it anyway. He is a good friend of mine. A good one indeed and I am glad that I am his friend. Smiled* Did I mention that he is an Otaku ? If I am not mistaken, he likes K-On anime (Please don't kill me).


I remembered how we got lost in Dublin for 3 hours just to find the city centre. We were totally noob at that time. No map, just follow our guts. Laughed* However, we managed to see some nice sight-seeings along the way. Look at these photos. We were so young and look so innocent looking students. This is so not true for Ken... Laughed*

 





I cannot believe that time passes so quickly. These photos were taken last 3 years ago and we still look the same. Laughed* I miss those times when he is around. He is like a brother to me. I remembered those times where I often called him for help. S.O.S... You are my savior bro ! Laughed*





Last time, we went to Scotland for a short getaway with our incredible friends. This was my 1st trip in Europe and I made friends. Smiled* We had so much fun during the trip. I became an eye opener. At that moment, I have started to like travelling around the world and it is still on going. Winked*


Even though he is only here for a year but I had so much fun being with him. I like his easy going personality. I learnt a lot from him so, thank you my friend. Bowed* I cannot wait to see him once I come home. I wonder how he is right now ? Giggled* Perhaps he is getting married? Laughed* (Seriously, please don't kill me)

P.S to Ken: You still owe me a Japanese lunch. Laughed* I want a big feast ! Laughed*

With Love,

She is the S.T.A.R



This is my friend, Memory a.k.a my big sister. Because of her existence, I did not feel lonely when I am in Ireland. It is true that not everyone can become your friends. I have a lot of friends but in the end, they just turn away from me. True friends are hard to find and I am glad that I found you here. She came from Mainland to pursue her studies and explore the world. On the 1st November 2013, which is the day where she is finally completed her one chapter of her life.

That day was really sunny and cold. We felt lucky because Irish weather is unpredictable. Perhaps her smiles brings good weather. Smiled* She woke up early in the morning for her big day. I can see that she is very happy, excited and nervous about it. I am honored to become her photographer on that day even though I am still a noob. I told myself that I have to at least try my best to take good photos of her. I want to make her happy and a memorable day in Ireland.




 








  


I am so happy for her that she finally made it. Her efforts were paid off. When she went up to the stage to received her scroll, I was so proud of her. Memory, you did it !!! Congratulations !


I took a lot of photos of her but I felt something is missing. Yes, the "throwing graduation cap to the sky" photo. For me, this is the best photo of the day. It really shows her happiness and success after all the hard work that she have gone through for the past few years. Thumbs up*


Here, I would like to say thank you for coming into my life. Thank you for being there for me when I am at the lowest point. Thank you for being my closest friend. Apologize if there is anything that I offended you. You have taught me a lot of principle of life even though you may find them nothing so special about it. You even taught me a lot of skills and I am honored that it is you that I learnt from. I will not say goodbyes to you as I believe that we can meet again. I will miss you and never forget about you. I hope you have a good life there. Finally, I wish you all the best in whatever you do. All your dreams will come true as I say so. Winked* 

"If you're alone, I'll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow. If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile... But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me."


With Love,

I'm not a Freak but Unique


I bet everyone has their own rights to do something for themselves. Yay or nay ? Well, I do have one that is, I do not like people coming in to my room. I do not know when I started to have this freak habit but it seems happening now. I'm a freak to others for sure. Think again, maybe I am just unique.
"Freak is a person who is envied by others because they are a fabulously unique individual that can kick ass and has no need or desire to follow the flock"
I am wondering whether did I over react and make everyone thinks me as a freak ? Wondered* As for me, a room is a special place where I can be myself and do things privately. Do not be confuse, I am not trying to exclude myself from others. I am just only allow closest people to come in. Someone said to me that a room is where ones can tell who you really are as a person. Would it be like letting someone come into your life ? I am overly thinking I guess.

Imagine your room being bombarded with people in and out even though they are your friends or someone you just met, would you not feel any insecure for any reason ? Well, I do. In this case, this is not your room but a common room for everyone to gather for activities. Nothing special for a place to be called privacy.

I respect others privacy and hope that others will do the same. Some people may think I am a snobbish, cool, geek, nerd or even freak person but I do not care. This is my life. I live just the way I want to.


With Love,

Forever Bound

Have you ever bounded with someone forever in your life ? Well, my life is. It is all started when I was 3 years old. At the beginning, I was pretty sure that I enjoyed my life as a main star in my family until she was born. Meet the girl a.k.a my sister.


People called us the Yin & Yang sisters because we are totally different in person. How ? Back to the beginning where we were babies. I was the big size ugly duckling baby and she of course is the snow white baby. I have dark skin and she got the fair skin. So unfair ! Feeling annoyed*


I remembered how my mom told me about how I look when i was a baby. It was horrible ! I always imagine that I looked like alien. Big forehead, hairy everywhere, purple lip and huge size. Scary right ? Even my mom said she got shocked during that time. 3 years later, the snow white was born. Again, my mom got shocked because of her beauty. Big eyes, fair skin, red lip and blah blah. But when I saw her the 1st time, I knew that we will be bound forever.

She is actually the pain in the ass if you know what I mean. Laughed* Don't get me wrong, I love her very much. She is the one and only sister in my life. We do crazy things together and these are the best moments in our life. She will know what I mean. Laughed* Winked*


Now, she is in Ireland with me to pursuit our dreams. I'm happy that she is finally growing up. Yeah !You have no idea what I have gone through with her when she was a teenager. In contrast, I have no problems at all back then. Are we real sisters ? Hmm... Who cares ?! I'm already in love with her. Feeling in love* Laughed*

 



To have her in my life is one of my source of happiness. I can't imagine if I was the only child in my family. I bet my life will not be colorful as it is now. A perfect sister I am not, but thankful for the one I've got is you my little sister. Hugs and kisses* Off we go to see the world ~




With Love,

Dublin Crashers

Hi there ! First time in Ireland ? Never been to anywhere yet ? How about Dublin as your 1st stop in Ireland ? Winked*

One Saturday, I took a group of my new young friends to Dublin. There are my sister's friends and so we became friends too. Laughed* They reminds me of my old friends in SMI. (Shout out: Miss you all so much !) Our group is a mixture of everywhere across Asia. We are truly Asian ~ Singing*


We took a bus to Dublin which is around one and half hour journey. Once we arrived in Dublin, we went for lunch straight a way. Feeling hungry* I took them to Temple Bar area where all the cafes and pubs are located. We randomly picked one and here we are, The Old Storehouse restaurant. They served Irish food and they were superb delicious. Highly recommended. Thumbs up*






I just can't stop myself from taking photos of them with the food. Laughed* Playful* Most Malaysians like to do this before they start to eat. Can't blame me, I just follow the trend of addiction. Winked* I ordered a seafood chowder and it was delicious. The place was nice and well designed. I bet my dad loves this place as he always wanted to open a business like this. Am I right D ? Giggled*




This year I met 2 lovely and crazy Vietnamese girls. I just can't get enough of them. One is just too cute and blur while the other is wild and out going person. Both of them are perfect to be my models. Will you two be my models ? LoL* 



 


 




Leprechauns are everywhere ! Laughed* According to the myth, leprechauns are derived from the Irish shoemaker. Really ? I wonder... * Not only that, leprechauns are also self-appointed guardians of ancient treasure. So be sure to come to Ireland and hunt for leprechauns as he will promise great wealth if allowed to go free. $$$





Need energy booster ! Incoming ice creams ! Laughed* They just can't resist of trying the ice cream here. Jimmy and Adric are the big eaters in our group. They can't get enough of food. They reminds me of how big eater I am when I was young. Last time, I can managed to eat 1 large pizza on my own. Imagine that ?! 



Another musician girl I met, Jessica the Pianist & Violinist (left side). She is just too adorable and sweet girl. I can't wait to see her performances this year end. Winked*  

 


 



Meet Mosley (Mostly) the expressionist. He just can't get enough of his face expressions. Laughed* With the help of Jimmy, they both are comedians in our group.



The 2 Vietnamese girls were fooling around in the Disney shop. During that time, the girls were in the Disney shop while the boys were outside enjoyed watching street entertainment along Grafton Street. Me ? I was busy being a tour guide and a noob photographer. Laughed*



That's it for today ! I had a really good time with them. They are fun and crazy people. I feel young again for some reason. Laughed* Thanks to them that I can play with my new camera. Best of luck in your studies guys and don't play too much ! Hugs & Kisses*
