The story of us

Where should I start? Hmm… ok on Xmas day I spend little to chat with Bel (my best friend & my neighbour). Because I don’t make it home this year, I ask her to become my eyes, my ears. Even to drink on behalf of me heheh. During conversation, I ask her what happen back there in kampong? How is Xmas? Any “big” story? Any new from others? (friends)

Forgot about Xmas coz this is not Xmas story. Bla bla bla bla….

Bel: Weh, Emy will get first child this January
Me: Really? Great! Finally. The first one haha

Among “us”, Emy is the first one to married, and the first one to have a child. There are many of “us”, school together since we are in primary school. Since we are grow up together, school and hostel, our bond is strong. Even we separated during secondary school (the same school actually but different classes), our relationship still going strong.
Among these “many of us” there are few of us that are really... really… close. Myself, Bel, Na, Emy, Nereus, Pal and Nadine. Not directly close but the “third person connection” makes us close. Complicated relationship right?

Now we are all over Malaysia but it’s not a problem for us to keep in touch, communicate especially in this era of IT & Facebook. Once or twice in year, during Gawai & Christmas we made a small reunion, gathering, bbq, karaoke, chit chat and have fun.

There is famous topic that we always discuss when we meet up. “When will you getting married & who will the first one?” Most of us denied it. “We are still young”. “I want to enjoy my life first”, “get a stable life first”, “no candidate”, “frust of relationship”, “not ready”, etc… Unlike the other of “us” (the many of “us” group) some of them already married & have a couple of children. Mostly because of MBA – Married By Accident.

Back to the 7 of us, everybody seems to reject the idea of early marriage. But who knows, and by God will, Emy, the most unexpected person is the first. I even joke to her “Mie, if we still single until 30, both of us married la.” And among “us”, I am the last one to know… duh!

Hope it not too late for Emmy Christy Vincent, Congratulation!

Who next? to be continued….

Christmas Eve

Silent night... holy night...
all is calm, all is bright
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ! the Saviour is born..


Its not the first time I celebrate Christmas away from home and family. In fact, few times I celebrate Christmas and Gawai by myself. I don't know but this year the feeling is so different. Oh God... I really miss home.

I remember Christmas 2003 in Arau, which is 7 years ago. That is the last time I celebrate Christmas away from home. Compare to my feeling now, that time i can handle it. I didn't miss home at all.... and I know why.

Back there in Arau, demographically the population mostly Muslim. Hard to find Chinese, Indian or other races there. Same also with the place where I studied, UiTM Arau... I remember only me, 1 bidayuh girl from Bau and 1 Iban girl from Sri Aman the only Christian there. There are others but I don't really know about them. My friends, roommates and classmates are all Muslim.

Here in KL, surrounding by Christian friends, Christmas everywhere in KL. Christmas deco, music, functions, Christmas sales... etc. plus, seeing my friends status in facebook, enjoying their Christmas, enjoying their holiday make feel even more sad.

Compare to Arau, there is no such thing. The atmosphere are very different. Everyday is just a normal day. Except Hari Raya. But the good thing is, it make me forget (not totally forget la) what the day is. On christmas day I with few of my friends go to Kangar and suprisingly, they buy me barbecue chicken from Ayamas to celebrate Christmas. Terharu juga la my muslim friends do that thing hahahaha. Thanks guy for the great time we have spend together.

Merry Christmas All!

Football nonsense



Lepas draw awal pagi tadi maka confirm lah AC Milan vs Man Utd. Classic! Memang aku sudah jangka lagi lepas last game group stage. Hampir semua member aku sokong MU. "Habis la Milan".. Tapi takpe. Apa yang aku boleh cakap sekarang... "Wait & see. Kita tengok la sape yang kena nanti"

Tengok atas kertas, line up & player, memang setanding. Technically... Milan is better than Man Utd. Pirlo better than Carrick, Gattuso better than Fletcher, Flamini/Ambro better than Anderson, Seedorf more fast than Scholes... bla bla bla...

But one big weakness is Age & strength in depth. Milan 1st eleven is good... maybe far more better than Man Utd. But can they play 2 times in a week? No!!!!. Look at Giggs & Scholes at MU. Their manager can get the very best of them, despite their age. & they only one in a week or once in 2 weeks. Kalau nak rest Pirlo, Seedorf, Zambro, Ambrosini, Nesta or Ronaldinho... sape nak ganti? None of the reserve is capable enough....

Anyway... I still believe AC MILAN can win the Champions League. Forza Rossoneri!
