Me & Hollywood Glamorous Night!

-
Ju.Zie Roberts, The Younger Sister of Julia Roberts!


Date: 14 January 2011

My company's family day included a prestigous dinner event at First World Hotel, Genting Highlands. The theme was: Hollywood Glamorous! It is not everyday I get the chance to feel pretty, put on some make ups, wear striking clothes! To start my glamorous night, I actually behaved very kampung-like (in English, this means people from the country side). Upon arrival at the top of Genting Highlands:

Me: Hasben, go ask the Baskin Robin Lady, where is One World Hotel.
Hasben to Baskin Robin Lady: Can you please show us the way to One World Hotel?
Baskin Robin Lady: One World?? There's no One World Hotel but I can show you the way to First World Hotel.
Hasben to Me: Can you stop embarrassing me?

We walked away from Baskin Robin Lady with little pride, and all our balik kampung bags (including iron)!

My gorgeous accessories! (I wish!~)

I own no glamorous dress... and no way I'm going to spend a dime for renting one. The closest to glamorous is my wedding dress which I thought can be disguissed as a dinner dress. So I put on my best heels, Primavera - I wore for my wedding and graduation day, my bling-bling bag - an engagement present from a friend, and put on some make-up. Tada! Instead of Hollywood, i felt very Huluwood.

Me hoping to be crowned most glamorous... NOT!
  
What about Hasben? He looked far better than me. With the borrrowed tuxedo (with a tail coat!) from his brother-in-law, and spikiest most gelled-up hair I have ever seen, he walked with confident and declared himself: Hot and playboy-like... I am not sure how to react to this overconfident-ness... However, I've got to hand it to him, he won 3rd place for Best Dressed Male... Hmmm~

Hasben trying and failing to do Sudoku - Hah! I told him it was hard!

The dinner was nice, the committee members did an amazing job!

Lamb - my favourite!

Professional dancers - a bit too sexy for Hasben to watch!

Every attendee was promised a lucky draw. At every interval, the bosses drew 30 numbers. There were also grand prizes and super grand prizes. Being the very unlucky person that I am... my number never came out until the very last 30 people, at which point, everyone was starting to leave the dining hall!

Fleece blanket - the unluckiest draw! But me likey!

Quite a number of people came up to me and asked, "Baju kawen ke? Your wedding dress?" Crap! I thought it wasn't that obvious! So much for glemerrrr giteww~~!

This is me and Hasben walking down the red carpet at the Oscars. Yohoo..~ Nicole Kidman! Wassup?!

Hello Second Baby!

Kimi will be 3 soon and guess what, he is also a newly-appointed big brother! This time around, Prince Court is not in the picture - being full-time students, we can only afford to attend Toowoomba Base Hospital, a government hospital so this will be a whole new experience for me, not to mention being in a whole different country! A little park in front of the hospital: I had my monthly checkup at USQ clinic with Dr. Kay Brumpton, who is amazing by the way. And towards my second trimester, I had monthly visits to the hospital to see the midwives. This is the waiting area at the Antenatal Clinic: And that's Kimi climbing over the door of the play gym. Adventurous...! Being Asian, and smallish (even for an asian), my baby was measuring a bit small than the average Aussie. The doctor was a bit concerned and had me do 3 ultrasounds. Back in Malaysia, ultrasounds were performed during every single monthly check-up, but here, they feel that 1 is good enough, unless

Book: Sushi for Beginners

Date: 24 December 2010 Author: Marian Keyes She is definitely one of my favourite authors ever. The first book from her that I read was Under the Duvet, and the second was The Other Side of The Story - both I borrowed from UTM's library. She writes about characters with real life issues and manage to make the situation light although it's actually a dark topic. At the end of the day, readers will learn about complicated issues without feeling depressed. She delivers the message and adds humor to it - just brilliant! Plus, I learned a few Irish words! Sushi for Beginners is about the lives of 3 different ladies, all facing depressions. Different characters have a different coping mechanism. Synopsis: Lisa, a beautiful, career oriented lady is the b*tch boss from hell. She'll do whatever it takes to be the best at what she does, even if it means having no friends and family. The thing that drives her over the wall was when she actually sacrificed her marriage to

Melbourne, Australia

Melbourne Weekend Getaway! Date: 13 May 2011 It is not often you hear someone say, "I'm going to Australia just for the weekend". However, it actually happened to me, not intentionally, but accidentally... I booked my flight ticket (in August 2010 for the lowest fare possible!!) without double checking and ended up with only 2 full days to spend in Melbourne. To make the best of it, I pre-booked full day tours for both days... which left out any opportunity for Melbourne city sight-seeing - how sad! From LCCT, KLIA to Melbourne Airport, it took about 8 hours flight - which I can't sleep for most part of it!! - and the time difference is plus 2 hours from Malaysia. Date: 14 May 2011 Upon arrival...   Hi Mr Sean/Chin! We were greated by Ms Candy who showed us to our maxi taxi. The driver was Mr Sean/Chin (didn't quite get his name) who was from Cancun, China. He was friendly and energetic. He dropped us of at Punthill - The Stanton at St Kild
