happy 2011!!!

and i have diarrhea on the very 1st of January of 2011... ha ha ha!

a delayed long time ago story.

hi friends,

as the title says it, it was long time ago...

hence.

i forgot what i wanted to tell and say.

it's most probably regarding my 3-4 months lost in Malaysia but somewhere around in US life.

for your information, there were way too many things happened.

sad? not really, unless you are saying that working as housekeeping and ppl are making fun of it.

happy? i miss those superb scoops of ice-creams, its creaminess and crunchyness of the cones. the companions i get from time to time, where you seldom hav time to be alone because everyone is finding everyone to hang out.

bitter? when it comes to no one finds you, and you found out that they actually forgot about you.

joyous? the gathering of all people, the laughters from all cultures, the out of mind dancing and drinking with friends.

depressed? when you got to wash the toilet bowls every single day and sometimes have to flush for those who did not flush which i absolutely have no idea why they don't flush. and to unclog those clogged ones.

challenges? oh yeah... you got to find ways to fill up the toilet rolls in each toilets by getting rolls from different sources/department because your upper level management apparently did not order the supplies earlier. find ways to work less without anyone knowing it *secret*

misery? erm... basically this happened when i suddenly lost in the middle of the night thinking why the hell am i here working as a 'cleaner' which in fact i might be a psychologist in the future. or when i was looking at the group of happy people around me but cannot feel the happiness or joining into the conversation.

fortunate? so glad that i was actually there and got to meet many sweethearts. they are all so friendly, regardless of faking it or not first. at least, they did not hurt. we are all still keeping in touch through facebook, msn and postcards for those who are still travelling. i don't know how long will this last, at least, i own them now.

gratitude? thanks to my mom that supported my financial to pay all the fees and my initial living cost. i really did want to pay her back yet considering the position i was working as, i really did not earn extra. i got back what i spent for the programme. and for those i used for my travelling and some shopping. and to people that i met there, it was such a pleasure to know you all.

satisfaction? from the scale of 1-10... i rate it 7.5. the people were nice, the place i worked wasn't that bad just that you might need to find more hours to get more money. the weather was unbelievably cool, the whole island was like a fairyland where you find no cars but horse carriages. at times, rabbits/squirrels/frogs/birds are found everywhere near you. i did not rate it a 10/10 so that i have a reason for me to go back there some time in the future.

i realize how lovely the place was after i left. it was an island surrounded with exquisitely beautiful environment, weather, animals and most importantly the people and friends.

i'm positive sure that i miss the place so much not only because of the place, it's because the memories i had with you. my friends.

the time we spent.

the drinks we drank.

the street we walked.

the road we cycled.

the view we saw.

the ice-cream we ate.

the stars we counted.

the people we talked.

the bars we went.

the photos we took.

all the little little moments we shared.

i miss.

remember i said something about 10years later bring our own family there and have a gathering? i think it might work though. maybe not all with the family, but hopefully i'll be there. at least the one suggested got to be there right?


love,
LooYee

在美国的心情故事

不知不觉，在美国已有漫长的一段时间。

虽然一直呆在同一个地方，工作都是那么的一成不变，人也就那么几个，不过当你和一堆很不错的朋友一起hangout，时间感觉过的比平常快好多哦~

一起吃饭，骑车，看夕阳，聊天聊地聊八卦 XDDD 等等。。。

当然，我还是我。。偶尔的在耍小孤僻。。。不过很快我也就恢复了！如果没加快脚步的话，很容易被他们抛在一边。感觉很不好。

但是，女人嘛。。。就是会有点emo啦 哈哈！

bout 2 more months to go...

i've been in here for more than a month... nothing much happened basically..

everyday doing the same routine and meeting the same old people.

sometimes it is boring. not because of the people *maybe sometimes*, but due to the everyday unchanged environment, chores or maybe entertainment.

you go bars/pubs at night. you drink. you dance. you chat with strangers. you get a free drink. you get home. you sleep. and there goes your night.

the sun shines from morning 5am till approx. 10pm. it is that LOOONNNGGG. and in contrast, the night time is very very short.

during off day, if you're alone, be prepared to spend the whole day alone. because as i said, there aren't many options for you to choose. bike, hike, eat, sleep, chat with random 'hi! bye!' friends.

well. i like to social. and too, i love to talk. *depends on situation*

just that once in awhile staying away from crowd is a way for me to recharge the social battery.

me typing this in a very random mood.

the place me currently living is good and is bad. most of the friends are pretty much in the other side of the resort and somehow me is always being abandon==

i don't come out with plans because me is somehow always the follower. and the plans that i have in mind are usually stupidity and childish. hahah!

there was once i suggested we shld roll on the green ground *there's a slope nearby the bike parking area* but they looked at me and giv me the 'are you out of your mind' look...

well, too bad. for me things are fun when you do stuff out of your mind once in while. because the results are always unprediectable^^ and that's why i always come out with ideas that others think idiotic. and because of that they think me is childish. it's just them are losing their children soul XDDD

if you ask me how i like it here. i can giv you a definate answer that i really do like the island, but not the job me is doing. the pay is not bad but i don't tips T-T cause i'm not in room attandant. not only that, i gotta fight with others to get extra hrs so that i can get more overtime and earn more.

things do not always go as you wish though. there are more and more ppl now, each and everyone of them is too fighting for hrs. *sigh* it's just sad case when i come to think about it.

My NYC trip^^

title says all^^

basically my NYC trip was quite hectic??! haha! due to time constrain, there are few places that that i dint not manage to spend time on T-T sad case... but that is what will make you go back again, rite?

maybe some time in the future i'll like staying there for a month and live like a new yorker ;p

the night on my arrival was raining!!! freaking cold okay?! i did not expect it to be that cold lorrr

my body shivers non-stop and the breath you blew out can actually form the white 'steam'??

O.0

thanks my parents and my super worry grandma for keep insisting me to bring more thick sweaters *teary eyes* if without their bugging, i'm sure i'll just stay in the hostel whole time and there goes my days in NY haha!

the hostel we stayed was awesome!


it located 20-30 mins far from the JKF Airport, but its location really a strategic one!

you just need to take 10-15 mins walk, depending your walking speed of cuz, to the closest MRTs which are Flushing Av or Morgan Av. Morgan Av is better for goin to the Central City while Flushing Av is for Chinatown^^

the bed was nice, environment was good *despite the cold weather*, ppl were friendly, free all-you-can-eat breakfast *typical american breakfast*, and the best is... really near the MRT haha!

i initially thought it was a guys' dorm due to the pic and the wordings haha! but this room was better than the first room where i was checked in for the arrival night. it was because this room was much more warmer and the ppl were more conscious of others' necessity ;p


ps/ story will be continued in person later haha! later to type==

ermmm...

不知不觉，在美国已有4个星期了。
时间可以说过的很快，也可以很慢。
感觉朋友好像很多，可是又好像很少。

工作其实还蛮简单的，就是每天清理公共场所。
每个人在工作时都会向你问好。。对我来说就只是一个习惯。。
真不真心是其次。。

每天工作后就自行找娱乐。
而这里的晚上娱乐通常就是去bars或pubs
当然我并没有常去，因为喝酒并不是一个很好的习惯。

和一群同样来自马来西亚的朋友买了单车后，
几乎每天傍晚都会一起骑车。
偶尔一起走走，谈天，吃东西。

和在这里认识的朋友好像有很多东西谈，
又可以什么都没有。
gap可以很close，同时中间隔着一面很厚的隐形墙壁。

没有很好的朋友在身边，没有家人的声音，没有喜欢吃的食物，没有我喜欢的电影院，
没有妹妹的啰嗦故事，没有弟弟一直要我载他的要求，没有每天要帮妈妈的银行事物，
没有可以一直坐在椅子前对着电脑的时间，没有帮佣帮我洗衣服，没有很舒服的床，
没有可以睡到自然醒的时间，没有赶功课的压力，没有很好的心里老师share很出人意表的故事，
没有可以一起做傻事的朋友，没有可以拍很漂亮的相机。。。等等。。。

然后，自己又搞自闭。因为和人social偶尔很累。
尤其是新的朋友。
可是不久后自己又跑去和他们混。
自己的一个人的日子真的还蛮闷的。
也幸好他/她们来得真是时候。
要是再迟一星期我也许已是一个拒绝社交活动的人了。

原来，当人离开了熟悉的环境后，还是可以适应的很好。
只不过，你会特别想念你之前所拥有的。
人，真的会在失去后才会珍惜。可是拥有回后，又一堆的抱怨。
是我太贪心还是在犯贱？

ps：这不是一个很好的post，待我有很好的时间和感觉时再post一些开心的事情^^


天气：大太阳和很冷的风
心情：晚餐的食物让我感觉不错 XDD
