6 in 1

As mentioned in my previous post. I finally got the chance to play tennis, with Chris! And yes, as expected, I lost pretty much all my strokes and stamina. We haven’t even played for half an hour and I was already panting hard. Heck. Plus, this isn’t half as challenging as Mr. Lee’s intensive training back then. Talk about what a year and a half could do!

Ruth took this a few years back i think, of course with a lil help of cropping, wala! The end product.

 

Quite a few scandals happened lately – school. What can I say? Think twice before you act???

 

Blaze has been quite a menace. Poor Chee Kien must be so mad at him for clicking his Friendster account in front of the whole class. Worse still, using the LCD projector! Man was i glad that i deleted my Friendster account! Who knows what that monkey would do next? 

Who said gals were the only ones acting all emo-ey. I just read some of my friends’ MSN’s personal message. Boy are they EMO! And I do mean Boys! They’re even worse than girls okay!

 

I just found out that I’m going to have a permanent scar on my ankle. No big deal, just a small brown patch. And no, I’m not going to use any scar remover cream or whatsoever. Come to think of it, this would actually be a good reminder for the consequences of ramming into school gates, and I mean huge, heavy gates. Honestly, where were my eyes?!

Was peeling garlics just this evening with Kak Sumi. I am not good in handling knives. Sigh. I will have to learn up some cutting skills from Dad and Kak Sumi if i wanna cook better. After SPM perhaps. Will need to catch a few guinea pigs then to try my cooking. Volunteers??? 

 

Before i forget, I’ve changed my email to pearlysam@ymail.com. Why? Was filling some application forms recently when I came to the “fill in your email” part. Suddenly, I felt so immature. I mean, what the heck, bluehippo_bluehippo@yahoo.com??!! Hello!! Something a little more formal please?! So yeah, here I am, feeling awfully pleased with my new email. In future, I will be using this address so mail to this address peeps!

That’s a wrap!

11 DVDs, 1 week to finish

been eating out a lot lately.

had curry mee with JS yesterday. drove there via his new black Honda Civic. darn gorgeous car although i still prefer Honda Accord. to have a cousin driving me everywhere, treating me to breakfast, yes, i’m a lucky one.

JS and his sis, Xin

had breakfast with Tiffany (sounds like “breakfast at Tiffany’s“. LOL. ignore me.) and her fam. was a bit shy to accept their invitation but Tiff’s dad was sooo hard to say no to (you know what i mean). you guys should see how Tiff comunicates with her fam! It’s so funny. had a good laugh there. i had kampuan which intially was supposed to share it with Tiff, but she backed out last minute and shared with her mum instead. poor me stuffing one big bowl of kampuan. it’s been quite some time since i had such a big serving. it was good though.

planning to play a bit of tennis this hols. no, not because i wanna lose weight, i just want to feel healthy again. and of course, i need to get back my strokes!

To Desiree

A girl that has been one of my best gal friends since Form 2. pretty, smart, timid.

though blurrie at times.

i must say, throughout the years, we (the gals-you know who) managed to influence her in doing things she had never done before, especially crazy stuff. you should be able to tell if you know her long enough.

despite all, the good and the bad, she’s a GREAT friend.

 Happy Birthday, Love.

 

 

 

Des: the homemade blueberry cheese tarts were really good. *drools*

drama in school

today was really something to me.

school was boring.

so we came up with an idea.

it’s called “How Good Can YOU act??”

basically it’s just giving us a scene and we act it out.

the better actor wins. 

and let me tell you,

I’M A DRAMA QUEEN!!

I won straight 5-0 challenging Blaze

last hour at school was just great.

how great it was?

chris skipped her history lesson just to join the gang.

not good enough?

how about having 20 people cheering for Pearly Sam while she acts with Blaze?

it was kinda embarrasing though. really.

but yeah, it was fun.

I’m just glad all of us enjoyed ourselves. especially me.

 

going KL tomorrow, uncle’s housewarming. a lil shopping too.  will be back with lots of pictures. and yeah, pictures are gonna turn out great as i’ll be using chirs’s DSLR.  till then.

I’m a 17 year old!

It’s P day! 

lots and lots of pictures of ME up ahead.

i spent my birthday morn from 11 to 4 with  YunYan and Christine, one of the most sincere peeps i’ve met over my 17 years.

i promise the girls which includes Natalie, Tiffany, Desiree and Ruth that everything on 3.8.08 will all be handcooked by me.

chris was the photographer of the day. with her DSLR, there’s nothing much to complain about the pictures.

homemade burger specially for chris

yy and I had pizza instead

cream cheese with yogurt and fruits.

there were some other food which i didn’t manage to snap pictures of like ice blended coffee and choc cake.

yy enjoying the dessert

we had a little photo session later in which chris graciously allowed me to touch her baby DSLR.  (maybe it’s because of P day)

according to Chris, this is the 3rd Rule.

different mirror, different angle makes all the difference

yy and the birthday gal

chris, yy and me

*outside home*

meditating?

jump shot

breezy

me like

later, i drove (darn right i did!) chris to get a haircut and visited two boutiques as yy wanted to get a installation dress. something pissy happened which i will not blog about. would love to post a few pictures taken in the boutique but the pictures are in chris’s phone.

celebrated with my girls at night

food: spaghetti, fries, hot dogs, pizza, chicken balls, egg sandwich and sparkling juice.

theme: sleeveless

chris was the photographer.. again.

last group picture before heading back home.

back home. here’s the girl who lent me her dress, added tonnes of wax on my hair, did my makeup, and has been my chauffeur for the past one whole month! one of a kind sis.

i shall end with this:

ex Leo Pearly Sam Shien Lee

lesson learnt : good cam = great pictures

cousins~

my american cousins were back for a week or two. the last time i saw them was two years back. my my, how they’ve grown.

this is colleen, 10. one mischevious little monkey she is. we both share a lot of things in common, like shopping.

selina, 8 (i think). likes pokemon and dinasours. L-O-V-E her american accent! somehow, i’d always like kids with accent.

a few more pictures of them.

i was like WOW when i saw her doing this. i’m 17 and i can’t even do half a split.

after dinner

 

we even shared the same hairstlye for a couple of hours (my sis’s hands was itchy that day)

love this picture, it looks happy. cute lil things they are.

these two happen to be the few good natured kids that i’ve actually met. absolutely adore them! one thing i like about them besides their accent is their boldness. yeah, you may be surprise how bold they are when it comes to talking. unlike malaysian kids who always hide behind their mothers every time you see them, these two are really talkative, and i mean REALLY TALKATIVE, in a good way of course.

 sigh, i miss em.

attended my cousin’s wedding yesterday. didn’t manage to take pictures of the bride and groom. no cam. but cous (JS’s sister – not the bride) did though. must think of a way to get the pics from her. i will, somehow.

venue : marina

everything was beautiful, from the settings to the scene. it was really grand. enjoyed most of it except the dancers and singers. lol. one thing’s for sure, next time when i get married, i’m going to have it all simple. just close friends, close relatives (note, it’s CLOSE relatives), my fam, his fam, yeah, that’s about it. maybe not even 30 of them. somehow, i’ve never been a fan of how the chinese weddings are normally held, especially the karaoke part. lol.

a few miserable pictures that i took.

mum was having so much fun with Elizabeth (cousin’s daughter), that’s until she cried of course.

i was drawn by this coconut tree and insisted on taking a picture of it, eventhough chris said it was just a stupid tree. lol.

my brothers playing by the beach

i like this shot of my cous (another one of the hundred cousins i have ) i like how he stands at that position admiring the sky, or… at least i think he is.

 there, i’m done blogging, time to get on with my books now. about time i did.

i think it’s one month

goodness knows how long i’ve abandoned my blog. been busy lately. never ending tests, school activities. *gasp* 

and no, life has not been boring at all. in fact, i do have one or two things in mind that i wanna blog about. what’s left is to wait till i really have time + mood, and pictures of course.

patience people, maybe tomorrow, or tomorrow’s tomorrow. *grins*

(feel good now that i’ve updated, even if it’s a short one)

the Sams’

we’ve never had this much fun and stupidity. not in years.

basically one of us came up with the idea of taking pictures. Sooo….. *grins*

some people say that i look more mature than my sister. in terms of maturity i absolutely agree, but looks?? *scratches head*

we were kinda bored, so i challenged my sis in a “who can pose more stupid” game.

we even pulled wenn to join us.

my brother nailed this one! it was pretty clear that he is the winner in this picture.

we even make him do this.

my bro says that i look like a duck.

of course there’s still many other sillier pictures but i’m kinda embarrassed to post them. anyway, here comes the big question, who do you think should win the game?

me? or her?

ps: told you the poser thing runs in the family.

*thumbs up*

i had lala for dinner today! my aunt cooked this. she’s a great cook. my grandma, she, daddy, i guess it runs in the family. 

cooked with lots and lots of ginger, just the way i like it.  yummylicous!

wenn enjoying his share of lala

it’s really good i tell you. GOOD.

even if you don’t believe me, at least BELIEVE this kid here. *grins*

a shot of us.

i had a great night. it’s been quite some time since i had that much fun during worship practice/jaming (whatever you call it). had an awesome time with my team. yeah, i have a feeling that this saturday’s worship is gonna be good. ;)
