Well, we kept in touch through fbk, msn, and we kept saying we shoule meet up again but we never did get down with it until YESTERDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :))))))

It was awesome seeeing them again... :)

We had a "dilly-dally" time of planning how we should meet, where, and when, finally we decided to go to Klang, where they stay and meet them in one of the shopping centers... :) But only Tabi could make it because Abby had to go for an interview, and Debs was in school... :((((((

But it turned out well in the end, because we took Tabi home and we visited at their home for a couple of hours... :) And Abby and Debs were back....also met their mum, Aunty Theresa!!!!!!! :)

They are nice family!!!!!!!! Have yet to meet their father though.....he's really very busy...always traveling.. :)

Anyway, it was nice meeting them!!!!!!!!!

BSF 2011 ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BSF 2011 started on Monday!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) I was having jitters in the car the whole way there, I usually do after a long break... :)

There was heavy traffic for what reason I don't know....maybe everybody wanted to go out for a romantic Valentine's Day Dinner... :)))))

So, we arrived when they had finished calling the names of the kids to their respective classes, and this year, SENIOR CLASS IS DIVIDED INTO TWO CLASSES!!!!!!!!!! Last year Level 4 was divided, but this year it's senior, too many seniors this year... :)

And PHEW!!!!!!!!! I was sooooooooooooooooooo happy that I'm still with my old "girl-friends!!!!" All of us were freaking out throughout the whole 3 months break that we will be seperated!!!!!!!!! But we are still together!!!!!!!!!! Wheeeeeeeeee, what a relief for all of us!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Jie is in the other Senior class, :))))) And guess what, WE, SENIOR 1'S, GOT THE AIR-CONDITIONED ROOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOTTTTSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!! The other seniors have to be out in the hot air... :(((((( Kesian them though...... ;(((( :)))))

Anyway, it was really awesome on Monday!!!!!!!! Great seeing all my friends again!!!!!!!! :) And, HOMELETICS WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!! We did something different and Joo Yee and Samee made me laugh like nuts... :)))))

My two class leaders are ok this year... :)

Ah Kong and Ah Ma called on the phone and sang "Happy Birthday" to me!!!!!!!!!! :))))))))))

Went out for dinner for my birthday with family........................

Just finished replying a whole bulk of birthday wishes on facebook!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THANK YOU EVERYBODY FOR THE LOVELY BIRTHDAY WISHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)))))) (I love how Christina posted 10 wishes on my fbk wall.. :) It was an accident but I was surprised all the same... :))) )

Charissa

P.s. A funny thing: On the 7th of Feb, I got an sms from Aunty Kay saying Happy Birthday....I was suprised at first, then realized she got the date mixed up!!!! :) Then on the 8th, Aunty Christine wished me, she also got the date mixed up, then on the 9th Ah Ma almost wished me............... :))))))) So funny la!!!!!!! But all the same, I'm grateful for their bday wishes too!!!!!!! :)

HOME SWEET HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :))))))

Arrived back in KL today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JAM FREE!!!!!!!!!! ;P My aunties and uncles were caught in a massive jam on Sunday and it took them more than 4 HOURS just to get from Penang to Ipoh!!!!!!!! Shocking!!!!!!!!! The average time is about 2 hours plus.... :) Without jam... :)

It only took us about 5 hours(less than the usual time) to get from Penang to KL today!!!!!! Jam-less!!!!! :P That's why, never leave at the last minute, either leave later or earlier.... never at the last moment..... ;)

Anyway, finally I can blog and post some pictures of my CNY HOLS 2011.....sorry that I couldn't blog earlier because I was using my grandma's comp in Penang and her comp has a bit of virus and since my blog isn't privatized I'm scared "germs" will get into my blog....and I didn't have time to really blog anyway.... :)

So, my Holiday Report will be posted soon, when I have the time~!!!!!!!!

PACKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm doing LAST MINUTE PACKING THIS YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm the type of person, who DOES NOT like to pack at the last minute, except like toiletries and stuff you have to pack at the last minute... :)

But this year, oh boy, instead of packing yesterday, I'm actually packing NOW.... :(((( And we are heading for Ipoh in a few hours time... :PPPP

Why I'm packing today instead of yesterday????? Simply because I was EXHAUSTED and too sick to pack yesterday.... :((((((

Sigh, the packing doesn't seem to wanna end.... I keep packing and packing, and then I find that I forgot to pack this and pack that........ARRRGHHHH!!!!

Ok, I think I have to go off and finish my packing now..........................................will probably blog again when we reached Penang in a few days time....

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Adieu home,
Charissa

House cleaning, AAAACHOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaacccccccchhhhhhhhhhhooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been sneezing since morning!!!!!!!!!! aaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope I'm not falling sick, not now!!!!!!!!!! We are gona travel tmrw, and it's CNY, and I DO NOT WANNA FALL SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just hope it's because we were taking out things from wardrobes and it was a bit dusty... :(

Anyway so I did a crash cleaning today.. :))))

Swept the floor, mopped the floor, scrubbed the toilet, and then clean the balcony!!!!!!!!!!!!

Phew!!!!!!!! I was deadddd after that.... :((((((((((((((((((

Aaaahhhhh my nose, it was giving me problems the whole time I was cleaning!!!!!!!!!!!! Everytime I sneeze then the mucus flows down, then I have to blow my nose, but after blowing my nose it makes me sneeze again, so it's like a merry go round, one after the other round and round and round and on and on and on....now my throat feels a bit funny, and I hope it's just some psychology problem... :)

So, off to Ipoh tomorrow and Penang on Friday..... no internet for a few days until we arrive in Penang, how sad is that... :)

Baby Susieeeee

On Sunday, I got hold of Baby Susie after church... :) I carried her the whole time after that, even during kopitiam... :))))) Then later Jie Jie Jan wanted to carry her, so I passed Susie to her.........then she started sliding down because Jie Jie Jan wasn't holding her properly... :)))) Susie was deadddd tired because she missed out on her nap that morning... :(((((((

Anyway, Grace came again on Sunday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So funny la she...... she said that because she only had  about 6 hours of sleep, she cannot entertain me today.... :))))))))))

But arrrrrr she very funny wan......in the end right, she forgot all about being tired and she was making me laugh and laugh again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She's sooooooooo funny!!!!!!!! ahahahahaha

So back to Susie, while Grace was telling something funny to us, (sis, me and Jie Jan) suddenly we burst out into laughter and Susie suddenly started wailing!!!!!!! Oooopppsiee!!!!! I think she was drowsy and probably going to sleep when we must have scared her, so I took over from Jie Jie Jan, thinking of taking her to her mum and after I took a few steps and came face-to-face with Aunty Mandy(her mum) Susie STOPPED CRYING!!!!!!!! hahahahahahahaha.... :)))))

So I decided to continue carrying her since she wasn't fussing anymore........ sat down, then Grace started talking again to me and sis........but this time we didn't suddenly burst out into laughter.... :) Next thing I knew was, Grace told me that Susie fell asleep!!!!!!!!!!!! wheeeee!!!!!!

She was soooo cuteeeee leaning against me.... :))))) But sadly she woke up like 15 mins later... :( Poor girl.... she was exhausted.....

First time I carried a baby for sooo long and my arms were weak and aching after that, but I don't care, I love carrying babies and playing with them that I won't notice the pain that much... :)))))))

Jammin' oops, Incubator

So, went to church today for jammin, ooppssieeee incubator... :) Justin doesn't believe in "jammin" so he said it's incubator.....which reminds me of eggs... :)))))))

Anyway, it was pretty ok today, we revised the old songs last week, which is the top two below...

~Who Is This
~New Jerusalem
~O, the Deep, Deep, Love of Jesus(new song)

Uncle Ian randomly started playing O, the Deep, Deep, Love of Jesus on his guitar, then I started playing the melody too on my cello and Jie accompanied us... ;)))))) And since Justin liked the song, he googled for the lyrics and printed it out and decided that will be our new song today... :)

Anyway, because we were working on the new song today, we didn't have time to work on Be Thou My Vision, we will probably be doing it the next time... :)

Uncle Ian was in a laughing mood today, and his laughter is SOOOOO SUPER CONTAGIOUS!!!!!!! :)))) When he laughs, you know that he's REALLY tickled... :)))))
Near the end, Justin decided to be like a DJ, and it was soooooo hilarious because Uncle Ian added his funny things, and we were all literally laughing like crazy!!!!!!!!!! :) My sides and cheeks were sooo painful after that!!!!!! ;) And it was hard to get back to "solemn-ness..."

Next week we are off for CNY, and will be resuming the following week, and we are going to record the songs we are doing and I hope I don't play out of tune!!!!!!! :)))))))

Tick-Tock

We were eating lunch at a "chap-fun" store, and there was this cuteeeeeeeeeeeeee little girl who is mixed????? I think she could be Eurasion.... :) Anyway she was soooooo adorable......

She was so funny, she kept asking her daddy whether they can go back home and eat raisin buns... :)

Anyway, before she started eating her lunch the whole time she was singing some tick-tock song which sounded ok at first but became like a broken record after that........ :) It was a bit annoying but ah well, at least she was enjoying herself with the song... :)

Her dad actually asked her where did she learn the song and she said at the school.....she was still wearing her kindergarten clothes so at the school probably meant her kindy... :) Her name happens to be Mylie Fong????? I think that's it....there were nametags on her shorts and t-shirt... :)

Anyway later another funny thing happened.......this is their conversation:

Mylie: "Papa, I want water."
Papa: "Here you can drink this..."
it was some leong sui or something...

Mylie: *shakes head* "I don't want that....."
Papa "It's ok wan, no fizzy gas in it......"
obviously she doesn't like fizzy drinks I guess.... :)

Mylie: "Nooooooo, I want WATER......"
Papa: *has to go to the car to get her water*

If she really doesn't like fizzy drinks, she really reminds me of my cousin...we're the second cousins anyway, he's much younger than me, and he DOESN'T LIKE to drink fizzy drinks or anything except water, unless it's Milo.... :)

Infact, he doesn't like to eat sweets, candies, or ice-cream............ only sweet thing he will eat is chocolate la..... :)

So good man he....

Well, she sounds like another good girl........ .hahahahahaahaa

ALL FLESH IS LIKE THE GRASS!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

So, Justin actually asked me to listen to this song All Flesh Is Like The Grass.....it's actually from 1 Peter 1:24-25 if I'm not wrong....it's a pretty cool song...... and see if I can figure out the cello and strings part in it.... :)

It was a bit challenging because it's so hard to force your brain to hear the strings part and not the vocals..... it was really really hard, not to mention the cello and strings were so soft!!!!!!!! :))))))

So I listened to the song over and over and over again.... I was pretty last minute, I only did it like 1 hour before we left for practice yesterday... :S

I tried and tried, finally I could only figure out the 2nd part..... so I came out with the first part myself....some random arrangement, which obviously Justin was ok with it, since he liked it... :)

I came out with the random arrangement while the rest were practicing their songs at church, I was at the back, freaking out every minute, and I managed to come out with something I was pretty pleased with, and yaaayyyyy he liked it!!!! :)

The song was played after the sermon for the congregation to just meditate on the words...... :) Justin played the piano and sang, and Aunty Darlene harmonized... :)))))))) I had to be Justin's metronome.....it was quite hard to remember to tap my foot and at the same time concentrate on playing but I managed to do it... :)

I definitely played a number of notes flat.........hahahahahahaha but at least, let's look at it this way, I got through the whole song..... ;))))))

It was funny, both Sue Ann(she played the piano for the earlier songs) and I said the same thing when we were done, "Phew, I'm done...." :)))))))))

After church service, I had a TALKING MARATHON with Grace!!!!!!!!! :) She came today, and we cakap banyak.... :))))) Talked, talked, talked, and also laughed laughed laughed......she's so funny, she kept making me laugh, and I was had aching sides!!!!!! :)))))))) Also I found out she does and likes certain things that I also like to do, and I didn't think anybody else would do too... :)))))))))

To sum up the day, it was a pretty awesommeeee day......................

Charissa

P.s. Susie was staring at me and I made her smile lots..... :)))))))))))))
