im so happy!! lallala...
u see, mum, sis and i bought a potted daisy-like flower each last weekend. we were on this sort of 'competition' thingy to see which pot will be the last one standing. so being the proud owner i am, i nicely placed my pot of flower in my room, at one dark, secluded corner, without it being exposed to sun. after the next few days, to my horror, my flower which was standing upright and beautiful just the night before, became deadly and flimsy, with the stem of the flower drooping downwards.
i scream. i cried. tears were flowing down my cheeks. as much as i hated to consult her, i had no choice but to bring my precious flower to see THE doc(a.k.a MUM). she suggested that i bring the flower out into the living room table. (DUHHH!! like i didnt know la..lol) so i did. and voila! today my flower is back to its normal health and shape! ekke..
p/s : i definitely cannot lose this 'competition' to my sis!! man, it would be such an embarrassment that i would never be able to face myself again. go flower!! my pride and my shame depends on u!! lol.. hmm, maybe i should start naming my flower hor....

When I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of Glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss,
And pour contempt on all my pride.
Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
Save in the death of Christ my God,
All the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to His blood.
See from His head, His hands, His feet,
Sorrow and love flow mingled down,
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet,
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?
His dying crimson, like a robe,
Spreads o'er His body on the tree;
Then I am dead to all the globe,
And all the globe is dead to me.
Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were a offering far too small;
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.

the picture i get about culprits who steal from shops revolves around angst-driven, hormone-raging, i-must-look-cool teenagers. this is what i get from watching movies and serials la.. u know the dyed hair, pierced body, torn shirts..the whole image..
but what i found out recently about my family really surprised me! mum and sis are good at stealing wei! haha.. i, myself, on the other hand, throughout my whole teenage life, ( haha..i can say tat already cos im officially passed that stage ), have not even stole before! shame on me! hahaha.. well, not that i want to anyway la..
for the record, they didnt do it on purpose la. it happened on separate occasions, but both in outama. mum was the first. she only found on that she didnt pay for the item dad put in her pocket a few days after that. it was those inspirational cards which costs about rm5.50. then next it was sis who walked out of the store with the item in hand. lol. that was really funny! keke.. she didnt even realise she was still holding the shower curtain that costs rm7.90 until my mum told her.. hehehe..
now its time for them to aim for more expensive items! lol..
family of professional stealers! with me as an exception of course. *grin* hehe..

im feeling good right now. all thanks to one person i could least imagine. my mum. funny how it works huh. a person that i wouldnt even think of when i need someone to talk to. i know she has good intentions and all but naturally, parents arent just the first people that comes into your mind when you're upset. well, it really wasnt on purpose. it just happpend casually over dinner. but im really glad we had the talk, together with my sis too. sis is real cool la. funny how she put things at times. hehe..:p
emotional and sentimental. to my mum, that's a weakness. and to me, i really dont know. sometimes i wish i was less of that. more controlled, stable and steady. feel less, hurt less right? hmmm.. or maybe i just have to grow up. the older u are the 'colder' u get right? hmm...
one thing said over the dinner that was funny..
mum : yuenwei, u're not young anymore u know that? you're 21 already.
hahahhaa...im not young anymore? hmm... tell that to those older than me! hehh...well, to some certain extend, thats quite true. i guess i shouldnt view life from a childlike mentality anymore, where everything is ideal and imaginary. where everything is good, honest and sincere. yeah, i know exactly that that doesnt happen all the time! maybe its time for me to learn to accept and take it well when it doesnt.

the question i want to pose today. why is val often the ONE who we tease and bully endlessly? why is she always the joke? is it cause she's an easier target? or does she seem to be a 'weaker' person? ( haha..i can testify she definitely is not! ) or probably it is because we love her too much that we have to give every ounce of our time and attention to her? ( just maybe in the wrong way la ) im bummed. i really dont know. what say you? hehe..
when we headed down to maju junction after church this afternoon, it was the usual scenario. the survival of the fittest. VAL vs all of us ( minus her sis, clarissa who didnt dare say anything else she'll be sleeping in the living room today, or worse, locked outside her house. and jia yee, who was too nice and sweet to join in the fun. i say give her a few more weeks and im sure she'll be on our side already. *evil laugh*.. ) i really pity val at times. after all her hardwork and effort to make a difference in the lifes of her lovely present and ex-cg members, after all the sacrifices, the hurt, the joy and the pain to lead an exemplary life, is this what she deserves at the end of the day??? boy, what kind of friends are we?
but then again..hey, its better her than me! lol! *grin*
well, this post aint about her la. she'd kill me! honest!! HAHA..
the journey down kl was quite fun by itself. a bunch of ladies running under the rain, across a busy road with heels and handbags clipped at the side. one even tried to cover her head with the palm of her hand thinking that it would prevent the rain from soaking her pretty, styled hair. what plastics!
oh, that was me. :p
but really, it was a fun trip, fun day, and it ended with satisfied customers bringing home what they intended to get. i like satisfied people! hehe, im one of them. *grin* just crossing my fingers that val wouldnt find the piece of clothing i bought at a cheaper price! hahah...

i've been enjoying the holidays too much. way, way too much. *sigh* its been a week since my midpoint. more than a week actually, and guess what? i havent laid my finger on it ever since, not even a single look since that dreaded monday. *worried look* now i have to take at least a couple of days to psyched myself back into the working mood. what a bummer!
*puts right hand into taking ikrar position*
saya, chan yuen wei, bahawa dengan sesungguhnya, berjanji bahawa saya tidak akan bangun pada pukul 2 petang lagi. saya, dengan sedaya upaya, akan bangun seawal-awalnya yang saya boleh untuk membanggakan ibu bapa saya, kommuniti seksyen enam belas dan seluruh rakyat tanah airku yang tercinta.

i surprisingly enjoyed the movie luther shown during cg yesterday. to be honest, i was quite sceptical when val suggested we watch it. i imagined it being pretty dull and boring, with men in funny hairstyles and costumes, and long dialogues that will send me to dreamland in no time.
i settled for a seat on the floor in between pris and my sis. ( yes, i brought my sis along cause i wanted her to share my fate! nyeknyeknyek..evil sis me...haha ) but in the end, both sis and i thought that it wasnt that bad. it was pretty good, in fact. she asked me some questions throughout the movie that forced me to pause and collect my thoughts to answer her. brat lil sis! always trying to make me feel stupid only! HAHA..
the night ended quite early for me and sis when we left cg for home, only to find that my parents werent even back yet! ahhh, should've just gone out mamak after that! *grin*
