Fashion Talk

I have always been a big fan of fashion but lately, with being broke due to moving, I haven't really invested any money or time into shopping or fashion.

I received this ad in my mailbox and went to visit it and thought it was really cool! Divine Trash is one of the fastest growing UK Fashion Shop and boast some of my favourite brands like Jack and Jones and French Connection.

I am very particular about things I wear. It cannot be too normal nor can it be just plain weird. I like to have a simple, casual look and that's why I love those brands. They're casual enough, yet neat and elegant which I love. Spring is nearing in the UK, so its a good time to have a look at some of the Spring collection.

It's time to bid goodbye to my.rojak'd.life and say hello to ehon's hodgepodge. :P

I decided to change rojak to hodgepodge reason being, I had a hard time explaining to my aussie mates what rojak means!

Me: Various fruits in black prawn paste
Aussie: O.O!!!!! Er... Ok.
Me: *thinks* -_-" Are you implying that we're freaks?! Well, we are to an extend...

I haven't met any aussies who have been to Malaysia, who wouldn't say, "OMG! I miss Malaysia's food" the first thing when they hear I'm from Malaysia.

Anyway, first three CHUPpers / commentors at ehonchan.com gets a postcard from me all the way from Adelaide, Australia! :)

Exams sucks

I took this picture at the hospital. I love the green contrasting the blue sky.

Exam started today and it was horrible. Sighs. Feel like an absolute failure! Let me mourn...

I need sleep.

This is a random plug - for those in Australia whose reading this, treat yourself, your family, or friends, or strangers if you like, a Big Mac because this Saturday is McHappy Day and for every Big Mac that you have, you're donating AUD1 to Ronald McDonald's House! I know I'm gonna have two, and drag my housemate and his girlfriend along.

BERSIH Campaign, what do I think?

What can I say? I've said over and over again, sadly, M'sia is ruled by a bunch (not all) of shameless monkeys who have no rationality.

Why shameless?

Because even after thousands of people marched the street, they can laugh it off and treat it as if it's a joke. It's saddening and it's hard. I think even if you strip them naked and throw them on the street, they feel no shame and will probably just laugh it off too.

Why irrational?

They made the gathering illegal, and sprayed whatever stuff that is on those people to maintain 'peace'.

Er.

Peace? WTF is that?! It was a gathering, and the chaos only came after they were sprayed with all the craps! Are you implying that there's no peace in Australia? Because just a couple of days ago, several thousand people walked the street to ask people to vote, and base their vote on climate change issues. I think this kind of walk/gathering happens everywhere in Australia, to create AWARENESS. I think the Malaysian government thinks Australia is a war zone - not very peaceful because there are all these gatherings.

And peace is a mutual thing - you do not achieve peace by shutting another party up or suppressing their voice. That's FORCE without peace! Are we becoming the next Myanmar?

I know at least 1 in 5 people who aren't a voter. For those who live in Malaysia, I think it's a shame you're not voting, because in the near (or not very near) future if you or your children suffer in that country, you have no one to blame except yourself. You are not voting for yourself - you're voting for the future. What I find even more annoying is people who goes on venting and ranting, screaming and shouting about the government, but alas they don't vote. It just totally doesn't make sense to me. At least if you keep quiet, and you think that you have no problem with the country's management so far, and you don't vote, then that's absolutely and totally understandable.

I wonder what does the Prime Minister think, and how does he feel, and how does he even sleep, when all these are happening under his power. If he feels proud, then SHAME on him. I think he should get out of the country for a holiday so he gets his rationality back (if he has one).

Today, 5 years ago, one of my best friends passed away. Let us be reminded that life is fragile. And let me just take this opportunity to tell each and everyone of you, whose life I have crossed, or is still crossing, that I do appreciate each and everyone of you. As ignorant as I may be, I really do appreciate any form of friendship/bond we share.

Ryan Remembered.

Looking forward!

After reading about a burnt victim someone's blog, I got scared and can't sleep! Stayed up until 1.00am, watching Survivor: China on YouTube. Aaahh. My favourite reality show since when I was... 14? Got up at 6.00am to study.

The real battle starts on Tuesday. It's either me frying the exams, or my arse getting fried by the exams. I hope it's the former. Let's hope!

Atrial natriuretic factor/peptide. I can't even pronounce natriuretic! Jun, as much as I like renal I totally loathe the endocrine part of things! Ughh.. My results are getting worse. :( First year, first semester, no credit; second semester, 1 credit; second year, first semester, 2 credits; second semester, er.... let us hope only 2 credits which I doubt but.. I DON'T WANT CREDITS!!

Looking forward to a (*fingers crossed*) wikiwiki (fast) two weeks! Then it'll be a MAD 3 days shopping + packing. What should I pack for a 3 months holiday?! Hmm.. What to buy for people back home? Hmm..

Tuesday, 27th, hop on the plane to Sydney because it is pom chak chak day with May! Yup, her entire Tuesday is booked by ME! Muahahaha! What an honour. What gift to bring to Sydney from Adelaide? Hmm...

Wednesday is workshop day with the other ninjas from Perth, Brisbane and Sydney.

Thursday the 29th, hop off the plane at 8.30am, and hop on to a bigger plane at 1.30pm. Plane hopping is my new hobby! :) 7 hrs 05 mins until meeting eastcoastlife! :) Hmm.. We sama sama go GEYLANG! eat and sampat ok?! :P What gift to bring from Adelaide to Singapore? Hmm..

Friday the 30th, hop on a smaller plane to bring me home! K U C H I N G - BEST city in the world. It's already a proven, undeniable fact. Shhh..it!

Looking forward!

ps: I'm trying to motivate myself!!! Who hate exams? Put up your hand!

pps: For those who don't know, you can bring anything into Australia except anything with dairy products, and anything related to plants. Indomee has neither. And all food MUST have a label listing the ingredients. :)

Beat me, Superman!

I took my housemate's car and left the apartment at 12.00pm, reached coles at 12.05pm, dashed in, grabbed:
- two big bottles of milk
- a loaf of bread
- some shaved honey ham
- some chicken thigh fillet
- button mushrooms
- pasta sauce
- minced beef
- orange juice
- a bag of apples
and then headed straight for the counter. Mind you, the supermarket is super huge and all the things are everywhere! And I didn't even plan what to buy, just grabbed whatever I see and whatever I like, but made sure I get milk, meat and bread!

An old lady at the counter queue was kind enough to let me have her place just because I'm too cute I have less things than her!

Swiped the card, keyed in pin number and left Coles at 12.22pm! Drove home and reached home at 12.30pm. My record-breaking shopping duration, EVER! Heh. Faster than these two (refer to pic) super er... superpeople! Damn, I need to grab one of those shirts too!

On a random side note, if your kids, or anyone you know have this toy called Bindeez, the award winning toy (won something like the best toy at Melbourne Toy Exhibition), you'd better chuck them out right away!



Apparently, if ingested, the beads get broken down into GHB or gamma hydroxy butyrate in the body - which is a kind of drugs commonly used in rape cases. Hundreds of kids around the world, (from what I know - Australia and US) have become sick after accidentally ingesting the beads - go google it for more interesting news.

And some people are seeking this toy in the black market for their drug use purposes during schoolies. What a bunch of idiots?!
