Yesterday was Malaysia's day.. Everyone was happy celebrating, it was the day everyone gathered to honour our heroes who fought for our country.. But it wasn't for me.. It was the day I lost someone whom I've spent my 22 years with, my beloved brother Sean..
He got involved in an accident while he was driving his super bike at Kuala Penyu road.. I don't know how it happened and what the story was about. I only remember how painful it was waiting for my parents' phone call to confirm the news.. Meanwhile, everyone prayed for him hoping that he was still alive. Here, I really thank all my friends, pastors, cell groups and leaders that prayed for him and encouraging me, calling me or messaging me to stay strong, from the bottom of my heart..
But i encountered God's presence.. While my parents were on the way to see him in Kuala Penyu Hospital, news said he already passed away.. But mum told me not to give up yet till they see his body.. When my parents arrived, she touched his body and it was still warm, even after 4 hours! There was a slight chance and so Dad yelled his name and kept pressing his heart, he was still unconscious but there was heart beat and shallow breathing.. But, things were not as good as i hoped for, he passed away at the end..
I was angry and I didn't know what to do.. But my bf and a friend told me, at least he waited for my parents to be by his side before he left us.. He was not alone at his very last breath, he had mum and dad to accompany him. And he died doing something he really love..
Yes, the feeling was very unreal, very vague.. I still cant accept that he's gone.. But I know for sure, he is in a better place now.. Kor, I promise to be strong, to take care of mum and dad, and shan shan.. May you rest in peace. You're forever my brother.. You're in a different world now but you're still in our thoughts.. I love you Kor..
Guess what Kor? We heard alot of good things about you from your friends.. They told us all the good deeds you had done for them.. It was good listening to all these comments about you. So many of your friends turned up at your last journey on Earth. I really hope you are free and happy where ever you are now.. Do give us some dreams to tell us about yourself okay? I miss you already..

Hi Joanna here! WAIT...!
JOANNA?!
You may be wondering what in the world is this woman doing on Sam's blog.
Sam just downloaded Blogger on her phone and I'm merely doing her the favour of writing her first mobile blog. We're currently bored out of our wits waiting for her car to be serviced so I'm just killing time by 'invading' her blog space.
That's all for now. Shall invade again some other time! Toodles!

Before I talk about relavant things related to the title above, I have a reason for blogging at this hour. It's my 4th day of posting in Taiping Hospital in Perak. Hospital settings, doctors, nurses and people in Taiping are really nice but there's nothing much to do here. I am bored of staying in the hotel room the whole time (excluding times in hospital and for meals). So I decided to blog. Meeeh...
So here are some food, mainly from Penang and 1 or 2 from Kota Kinabalu. =) Enjoy!

Hi Ya Bloggee! This is actually one of my favourite dishes in Malaysia. I can never get bored of it! =D
I was craving for this the other day, but since I am in Dublin, where on Earth can I get this aight? So I decided to give it a try. I imagined what's inside it, then I went to the grocery store to get everything. =) I think it tasted alright/edible so I decided to share with you!
Here's what you will need:
For the Hor Fun
1. Hor fun (depending on how much you wanna eat)
2. Soy Sauce (Light and dark)
For the Sauce/Soup
1.Garlic (1/2 head = around 5-6 cloves)
2. Diced pork (Again, depending on how much you eat)
3. Chinese Cabbage
4. Water
5. Light Soy Sauce
6. Cornflour + a bit of water (you need quite a lot to thicken it)
7. 1-2 egg ( Depending on how eggy you want it to taste)
P/S: you can also marinate the pork with some cornflour and light soy sauce to make it more tender)
So, let's start cooking now!
1. Boil and soften the Hor Fun. It should take bout 2-3 minutes
2. Heat some oil in the frying pan
3. Bring your hor fun to fry it. Add some light and dark soy sauce to give the taste and colour. Fry till you get the 'burnt' smell if you're using fire (For me, we use electric stove so I can never get that smell)
4. Dish out the hor fun
We're gonna do the sauce now!
1. Heat some oil in the frying pan
2. Add in and fry the garlic till golden brown
3. Add in the pork and fry it till its completely cook (Do not leave it for too long cos you don't want it to be stiff)
4. Add in the chinese cabbage and fry till they're softer
5. Add in 1.5 bowl of water
6. Add in the light soy sauce according to your own taste
7. When the soup is boiling, add in the cornflour mixture and stir it evenly till it thickens
8. Finally, add in the egg (s) and stir constantly to make sure the egg yolk breaks as well
Taa-Daaaaa~!! Your Wat Tan Ho is done!!!
Bon Appetit!
P/S: I cook according to feelings, therefore, if you realize, I didn't state how much of everything you need. Ooppssy... >.< But I hope you'll still like it!
Here's a picture of my Wat Tan Ho (not presentable though) Heeeheee

SHEREEN WONG KWAN YEE!!!!!
First of all, I would like to wish you a very very very Happy 21st Birthday!!!!! Ahhhhh!!! Im super happy for you on this very special day of yours!!! =DDD
You're my best friend (S-sister) since 14/15 years old!! Then we became part of the AS2H and also the Bak Kut Teh Gang! Time flies! We're friends for 6 or 7 years now! We have been celebrating our birthdays together since then, until I leave for A-levels in KL! ='( BUT, one this I can reassure you is that my heart is always with you, even today! =')
On this day, I would like to dedicate a post for you!
You're always the charming girl in our group! And also the one with a strong character. When you take part in something, or in charge of something, you'll put all your best effort to complete it. You're the listener in our group. When we were talking about something, you never really answer, It seemed like you were not listening, but I know, you heard everything! Hehe.. You are always the slowest one to laugh when ever we were telling funny stories or what ever that is funny. The rest of us paused when you laugh, and then we laughed together due to your 'lag in laugh' Hahahaha.....
You're a sports girl too! I've never seen before, I know you're good in playing badminton. And now, FRISBEE!!! This is your favourite sports for now isn't it? Seeing all your FB status about your ULTIMATE, all the pictures.. Hehe.. Glad you're having fun there!
I think I should not continue on with the post, it'll be too long! =D
Once again, HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY my S-sister, my BFF!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Love,
Samiee

Hi there everyone! This post is just to introduce Eric & my Tumblr. We decided to create a place where we can write and remember all our memories. I had this idea when I was saw a friend of mine updating her pregnancy and the baby on Tumblr. So i guess Eric & I can start too? Well, I guess its never too late to remember each and every memory we create starting from now on?
To me, 7 years is not only a figure. It is not short at all. In these 7 years, we've gone through so much, ups and downs, joy and sorrow, laughter and cry, etc. Our bonding just got stronger and stronger each day! There's more to come! =D
I Love you b!
So here is our Tumblr: Eric & Samantha
P/S: Because I created in less than a week ago, there isn't much post yet. But do come back do check out new posts! Appreciate all your time reading our love story! ❤

Yes, there is reason behind all the things that happen in our lives. Its up to you whether to believe it or not. But, being a Christian, I believe God has a reason behind all things that happen.
When something happens to someone, the normal respond is: Why me? Why did this happen to me? What did I do wrong that I deserve this? My life sucks. Correct? I am one of them. Most of the time, I don't see why something bad happen to me but nothing happens to other people. Well, I realized that it was because I didn't see the bad thing that happen to them. In their heart, they'll probably think of the same thing as I do.
There were a few times where I didn't get what I longed for, instead, my friends got it without hoping for anything. I question God sometimes: what???? Why did they get what I wanted and I didn't get it at all? Are you kidding me??? You know I've been wanting this so badly! After some time later, guess what? I get something better than what I've wanted! So, I guess God didn't want me to get what I wanted cos he has a better plan for me? Praise the Lord! =D
Other than 'reason behind all things', it is TIMING... Sometimes, all you need to do is just wait and pray. Have faith in God. He knows what is good and what is bad for you. There was once, (not too appropriate to state what happened) I was so miserable about this thing that happened to me. I felt like there's no way I can go through this. There's no way out. All the negative thoughts flooded into my mind. I was about to give up. My mum ask me to pray and wait for good outcome. The first few times I prayed to God, asking him to do a miracle on me. Let everything be okay. Everything will be just fine. I didn't really think it'll work. Cos to me, it really felt like its impossible there's a way out to this matter. But I continued to pray and have faith in God. Taadaaaaa.. After waiting waiting and waiting for a very long time, a miracle, really happened! There's finally a way out! God showed me that everything is possible. He was just waiting for the right time to show me! Joy was rushing throughout my body. It was such a comfort from God, he heard my prayers! <3

Yes, I know I'm suppose to be studying HARD for my exams now. Its next Wed! Oh gosh and there's still so much more to read! All the things I've read, I wonder they actually went into my brain and store it there..

So, here are the things that I want to do after the exams / during summer (and also RIGHT after the exam!):
1. Cut my front hair --> BANGS *yes, bangs! first time in my life!
2. Bring Edbert around Dublin..
3. Plan for our summer trip and also packing (oh yeaaaa... Spain, Portugal, France here we come! )
4. Korean drama marathon
5. Portsmouth
6. Electives
7. Do some recordings with Joanna, maybe?
8. Gym Gym Gym!!!!
9. Choreograph a dance with Joanna, yes her again. Teehee
10. Upload all the photos (birthday, holidays, random, etc, etc)
11. Sleep overs + talk + movies
12. Do something Crazeeeeee....
These are the things in my mind so far.. I'm sure there'll be more coming out when I'm studying. teehee.. n_n''''

Congratulations to Prince William and Princess Kate!!! May God bless their marriage! <3
Ahhh... Don't you wish you're Kate? A commoner marrying a Prince. Its like a dream come true for her! She has been waiting for sooo many years, the day is finally here! I'm sure she was very very excited and can't wait to say 'YES I DO!' Their marriage is like those fairy tale which we grew up with. The Prince waiting for his Princess, seeing his beautiful Princess walking into the church. Sitting in a horse carriage and waving to all the citizens. Awwww... Cinderella... =') Just that she did not wear a glass heels and Prince William did not wear it for her. Teehee.. But everything was good enough..
Wasn't satisfied with the kiss though. Waited sooo long just for the kiss and they only kissed twice.. N lasted for only a sec. D= Thank goodness I managed to print screen to capture and witness the magical kiss. =D
Here are 2 pics of the Royal Wedding. Did not think of capturing during the wedding ceremony in the church. =)

Hey everyone! Im finally back here.. This post is just a quick update about myself. :) I never have time to blog much since I starter my 2nd year! Cant even FB much, what more blogging.. XD Many things happened since 2nd year.. Happy things, unhappy things, shocking news, unbelievable truth, etc.. A whole long list to go.
Right now, Im studying for my final sem for 2nd year. There's just soooo much to study and I have to know almost everything.. The lecture notes are so messy and sometimes i just couldnt understand from the lecture itself. Gosh. I just hope (by God's miracle) that I will pass my exam and let me have a peaceful summer break! I can't afford to fail and to repeat the year! :'(
The few main things i've done since January:
- travelled to Austria, Swiss, Amsterdam, Portsmouth
- been to Usher and Taylor Swift's concert
- performed a korean hip hop dance for the seniors's farewell
- had an awesome 21st with my friends and babe
- went over to Portsmouth for babe's 23rd birthday surprise
There's still so much to update all my reader about me but I dont have the time now. Im sorry! I hope you still support me and read my blog! Thank you!
