Yes, even this Energizer Bunny (believe it, i've been called this before lol) needs some time to recharge.
I've had so much fun the past two days, i now truly remember why i loathed being away from home.

Friday night was spent at Poppy Garden, a club in KL with Mel (who surprised the crap out of me when i saw her in the car because that woman is suppose to be in Singapore!), Ping, Shwe, Jasmine, Arthur and Eman.
Poppy Garden is a nice change from Maison (where we would usually go) in terms of the crowd and space. It's a lot larger and half of the place is open air so it doesn't feel as smoky. i like!
I can't say the same for the music though because the DJ would play really good music for a while and then he'll suddenly change it to some random Raggae music which half of the crowd has never heard of before. But that's nothing good company and some alcohol can't cure! ;)

Aaron, Douglas, Kin Keong and friends were there too and i was actually supposed to meet them at 11 but because of traffic and some delay, i only reached there at 11.45. Them buggers wanted to make me down an inch of whisky from the bottle for being late but i declined cause i knew i'd KO if i did lol (sorry guys =p).
Also met Audrey (my bro-in-law's cousin, which i now call my cousin-in-law) there along with Shannon and Bryan (both of whom i conveniently scared shitless lol!) and some of their friends. They were just sitting at the table right next to us only! Small world but ahh, good times good times =)
No photos though cause i'm still waiting for Jasmine to upload them onto Facebook. To be very honest, i was tempted to bring my DSLR to the club that night, but my common sense kicked in eventually lol.

Woke up at 12 on Saturday, rushed to the Curve to meet up with Ping, Mel, Jasmine and we went to Bangsar for a junkyard sale there.
The place is essentially a very large house that has been converted into a flea market and you have people selling clothes, accessories, food and music there, even on the inside of the house! They even had a small section where they would have performances by bands (which were pretty good imho) and a swimming pool! I didn't snap any photos of the place because i was too busy looking at the clothes and i came back with this!

They're brand new with their tags still on at more than half of the original retail price! =D

Had a quick dinner at AC then went home for a quick shower before Danial and Adam picked me up to go for the National Cancer Society of Malaysia's Relay For Life.

It is a 16-hour walk in support of cancer survivors and cancer awareness at one of the stadiums in Bukit Jalil. They set up the place really nicely. There were paper lanterns at the perimeter of the field where people would write notes on the lanterns and light them.
They set up tents as well so that people could sleep over there and they had 4X100m races which i wanted to join so badly but was too late =(
We didn't walk all 16 hours unfortunately =/ i think we did about 10? 15? rounds around the track? But hey, it's not about completing all 16 hours, but about showing support right? =)

It's Sunday evening now and the sky is dark and it's raining. I wanted to go jogging but i guess i can't.
Time to curl up with a good book on the couch =)

Right, now if you have been reading my blog long enough, you would know that as it gets closer to my semester break, I would usually come up with a list of things that I wanna do during my holidays.
Well I finally have it and here it is! In no particular order...

Self-pampering: This semester has been a pretty rough one for me and a little bit of self-pampering is in order. The first thing i'm gonna do when i get back is see my hairstylist. My hair looks terrible right now. It's out of shape, messy and just downright wrong. I've been stressing over it for a really long time now and i still have no idea what to do with it =( Any suggestions on what i should do to my hair?

Travelling: The parents and I have our flights booked to go to Hong Kong for 5 days this June! Whopee! I've always wanted to go there since reading so many blogs about how nice the place is! And now i get to go there! Whee! Gonna be fun and probably gonna be doing some shopping there as well!
Besides Hong Kong, there's also the customary twice a year pilgrimage to Singapore but this time it's gonna be different. This time Singapore will be with the girls! Melll we're coming for you darling! And you shall bring us to all the cool clubs there and we shall dance the nights away!

Shopping: Oh yeah. I have the longest shopping list ever with me right now. Some of the things that i have to get include a new purse, new sleeve for my iPhone, more shorts, new clothes, a new school bag to use for classes, sunnies, more new clothes, a new Swatch, new jeans, running shoes, dressy shoes and the list goes on forever. Nothing exorbitantly expensive on my list this time though, which is a good thing.

Friends and Family: A big chunk of my holiday will be dedicated to these people. Yumchar sessions with the girls, meetups with friends and dinners with the family is definitely something i'm looking forward to! =D If any of you wanna meet up (from 28 May onwards), just give me a call alright? ;)

Photography: Most of you would probably realize that i'm putting up significantly less photos this year. Well to say that i didn't have time and that i was too busy this semester would be an excuse. So I'm gonna make it up to myself by going for more photo outings this holidays (Hui Wen! Jom!!) and also if things go well, get the opportunity of learning from some brilliant (female) wedding photographers this holidays.

Boyfriend: Me being away from him all the way in uni here hasn't been easy on him (and me as well). And i'll be honest, we've had our fair share of rough times. So this holidays is gonna be spent making up for the times that we've been apart =)

That's about it. I think i've pretty much got everything covered! Am psyched out about the holidays just by looking at this already! =D
Back to the books right now. Progress is not quite as good as i expected it to be but hopefully it'll get better soon! I still have that agreement with my parents to fulfill so that should give me the push i need. I really really don't want my iPhone to be taken away. I've grown too fond of it already <3

Also, tomorrow night me and my friends from uni are probably gonna be going clubbing in Ipoh... o.O
Yeah i know, you're probably wondering 'There are clubs in Ipoh?'. lol, well apparently there are! Though, clubbing, alcohol, uni friends and Ipoh never appeared in the same sentence for me before. This is gonna be an interesting first.
Hence, studying shall be done before enjoying oneself's night out.
Cheers everyone!

Last Friday, I proudly announced that I officially lost my clubbing virginity lol. (okay that might sound weird to some of you =p)
and it was all courtesy of Maison, KL.

The gang and I were supposed to head to the Eye on Malaysia first before we hit Maison, but the damn Eye was closed early in conjunction with the Hari Raya celebrations. bleh!

so Maison it was!

We opened a bottle, that was shared between Arthur, Kit, Chew, Ying, Mel, Ping and me.
The place was relatively quiet because it was raining that night and also because it was the first day of raya the next day.

We plopped outselves on this huge couch upstairs and the waiter poured drinks for us.

When we wanted to toast to our first drink, Arthur shared with us this French custom.
According to him, the French believe that when you do a toast, you have to look at another person in the eye, because if you don't, you will have a bad sex life in the future.
(i bear no responsibility towards what he says, nor will i be responsible if your sex life turns out to be uninteresting in the future)
