Loved like never before..

It's been three weeks since I'm back from Malaysia now. Thou I wouldn't say I miss the lifestyle back home, every single time when I think about my trip, I grin from ear to ear. I felt so loved and blessed like never before. Everything about this trip touched me deeply to the bottom of my heart!

'Home Sweet Home'. A simple phrase but have you ever come to understand the significance behind it? I finally came to realized the deep meaning behind this. No matter what, home is definitely a place I find strength, love and courage again. Love and care from parents were overwhelming the whole time. Food that I crave for was always prepared for me. Asking me to have some good rest at home instead of helping them out at shop. Shopping was initiated and paid for. My mum travelled with me for my IELTS test and took care of me the whole journey as if I'm a 12 years old. For the very first time, I had my father waiting for me while I was at hospital for ultra-sound scans. The funniest thing ever was my father kept driving outside the clinic that I was in because he was too shy to let me know that he was worried. :D All my wishes were fulfilled by my lovely parents. What's more to have sincere friends that went extra mile to ensure I have a fantastic trip. These friendships are truly genuine and valuable. Thank you my dear friends.

There's tonnes to share but I am not in a good shape to continue. I am getting emotional here whilst I'm typing this. Time to stop and post up photos. Not much photos was taken due to the superb ugly bangs that I have. Definitely a shame :(

Su Anne and Jenn travelled from Singapore to meet me up in KL. I was thrilled when they told me they are coming! Love u both!

We visited toilet bowl themed restaurant.

Look at how cute my meal was..

The seats that we were seating on.

We spent some good time with the Taiwanese aunties and uncle as well. They were the nicest people you will ever meet. Thank you for bringing us around and bought us good food :)

The dimsum that I'm currently addicted to.. It's avocado inside!

My all-time favourite..

It's time to send Jenn & Susu off..

I nearly cried when they were leaving. I will always remember the good times that we spent.

First time to Delicious and I fell in love with their food..

Mr. Chau that took leave and travelled from Penang. Thank you old friend :)

She found her passion once again..

I have been volunteering for some interesting events lately..One is a black tie charity event which 20 of Perth's corporate executives fight in boxing in the name of charity. On top of the live boxing entertainment, there's also bout predictor,live and silent auctions and raffle draw. It was definitely an eye-opener to me! Well, I have never been to a premier black tie charity event that's one thing. I've never seen a live boxing show that's second. And i've never came across such expensive live and silent auctions and were actually involved through the whole process! We volunteers were having great fun looking at those oscar-dressing guests going crazy after the auction items. Imagine this, your guests kept coming back to check if there's anyone outbid them, towards the last half an hour, they literally stood in front of the item just to make sure no one has a chance to take away the items that they want! They even kept bugging us volunteers to keep an eye out for them, end the auctions earlier and hold on to you if they dint get their wanted items. Hahahaha. It was really funny!

Wearing a cocktail dress with a sash on it, kicking on my most loyal heels for eight hours with heaps of walking and running and still guarantee a friendly smile on my face. Thou I was tired, I felt overwhelmed and excited the whole time. That's what I love to do!

Second event was Sportsgirl Swap Till You're Drop. The event catered for only females where the guest can bring up to 5 items and swap with others. Of cos there's some rules, not that we accept any poorly worn clothes. Wasn't too busy for the event. Most of the times, we volunteers were talking, laughing, joking and did some shopping since we have 15% off all Sportsgirl items :D

Guess I have found my passion again. It's something meant to be in my blood, never gonna fade away. I will feel happy doing it no matter how much it costs!

Pure Bliss Pt1

Another year of blessings.. I am one who totally sucks in planning my own birthday! It's so much easier to plan for others' birthdays than my own. I'll always get worried about pleasing everyone that attend my birthday party. So in the end, i rather give up planning my own. Thank God I have awesome friends that willing to take over the planning part and throw me a beautiful birthday bash.

Due to the amount of photos and 2 separate celebrations, I shall do my birthday's post in 2 posts.

So, on Friday night, 3 girls headed for japanese dinner before the party starts!

A bottle of wine as pressie from Justin..

Dinner with my birthday planners, YiWen & Sarah..

Feels good to have a good wine over dinner..

After dinner, we went for desserts at another japanese restaurant, Bonsai.

Ruiling came and joined us.

and it so happened that we were seated at table no 25. 25 is my birthdate.

We spent some time camwhoring whilst enjoying da desserts.

The girls love the red backdrop. So we kept snapping with it.

and they insisted of snapping my back..

Time to rock the party!

At Crown karaoke with Nicnic..

My girls..

Thank you Chloe babe for making it to my party! Ur presence does mean something to me!

The lovebird, Zaizai & NicNic..It was great having u guys. It's been too long since the last time we hang out. 2 years??

Couldn't recall what were we doing.
