bang!
I seriously want to bang my head on the wall and punch myself right in the nose. For many many years, this is the most stupiest thing I've ever done. This isn't me at all! Oh my god.
You, you know how I feel right? Rescue me!
I keep telling myself everything will fall back into its right place tomorrow.
*bang bang bang*
p/s: I love how ying can sense my excitements when feeding the dolphins because she seriously can feel how I feel. And she said I look damn funny wei. haha. I love her.

Moreton Island 22-23 Nov 2008
More photos!
#1 Trying different jump shots! Really fun when our jumps combine together! LOL
#2. One of the disadvantages of being a shortie. Where's lei? where's lei?
#3.lucky you, smelly fur for standing in front. Can anyone spot me? :P
#4. Random camwhore shot.
#5. Shot taken when we were chit-chatting in our hotel rooms. Beautiful sunset view.
#6. Love the pink-orange sky! so pretty.
#7. Awww.this picture makes me melt. Can you see the brightest star? That must be popo. :D
#8. Here comes to the most exciting part! Dolphin feeding! Wooh!! Sorry, the night vision mode of my camera is not very good and we can't use flash when taking photos of dolphins. >.<
But take a closer look! Those were dolphins!! Very very cute! Some of them even did the famous dolphin jump for us. Everybody were oooohing and ahhhhing. So excited lah!
#9. If you are not feeding the dolphins that evening, you could simply watch from the jetty stadium.
#10. Then we were all lined up, waiting eagerly for our turn's to hand feed the bottlenose dolphins! The whole process was very exciting man! The night's very cold, even though it's only 7pm in the evening. Thanks to the bloody strong wind, we were hell freezing. It feels like winter!
#11. And then we waited and waited and waited and me thinking or not to take off my clothes, coz I was wearing bikinis underneath, but the water's so damn cold, and the wind is bloody strong and and..my short pant is very loose. So in the end, I decided to just go in without taking my shirt off. Sorry, no bikini shot, guys!
So at first, we were told to wash our hands, each grab a little fish by holding its tails (fishes were prepared by the marine biologists in a bucket for us) then walked slowly into the water. *bloody cold, I must mention this many many times, because it was really really cold! ) And as we walked into the water, we had to make a few jumps when the rough waves came. If not, we will definitely be wet!
All I could remember was keep telling (or yelling should be more appropriate) that guy to hold us tight, the waves were crazily strong! And when we saw Nari ( our dolphin's name) slowly approaching us, we screamed! We screamed like there's no tomorrow! We screamed like as in nobody was watching us! We screamed like we thought we were communicating with Nari! Oh my god! He's seriously the cutest lor! Very tam jiat also! Waiting patiently for us to feed him underneath the water.
But one thing upset me was the photographer din't take a professional shot of us feeding Nari when he showed his body. Or maybe he din't. Seriously, I couldn't recall anything besides us screaming when we saw him underneath the crystal clear water. But never mind, you can still see the shade of Nari's body right.
After I finish writing my trip blog, I am going to blog about a recent trip ying made to Monkey Mia, West Australia. The time they fed these cute bottlenose were during day time and therefore her photos with dolphins are so much clearer where you could spot the dolphins easily!! *envy envy*
#12. These two people never scream! I wonder why...Not excited mer?! :P
#13. We then quickily flied back to hotel rooms, to dry ourselves before heading for dinner. Everyone were so exhausted, we quickily had our dinner, drank a little bit, then decided to head back to our room.
That's the end of day 1 after a long-hours of girly chitchatting.
Bang!
Zzzz

Here is some general information about Moreton Bay, Queensland. Australia.
Moreton Island is the world's second largest sand island - it is 38 km long and 9 km wide at its widest point. Moreton offers from dolphin and whale watching, to snorkelling, to parasailing, to sand boarding, to jet skiing and more!
The most I love about this trip is where we can hand feed the dolphins! Seriously, they are the cutest! The opportunity to interact closely with dolphines has became the main highlight of holidaying in Moreton Bay. From what I know,Tangalooma in Moreton Bay is one of very few sites in the world where people can actually interact with dolphins in their natural habitat when they come to feed at the beach every evening around 7pm in summer.
This is indeed an unforgettable experience!! Pa, ma, ying, mei, faster come here! Let's go holiday together! ^-^

Ok. It took me a little longer to sit my butt down after shower two nights ago.
Let's cut the crap again. :P
First day of our trip.
#1. Big crowd waiting to go on board at Holt Street Wharf.
#2. Us inside Tangalooma Jet.
#3. missyleilei & missyevalee
#4.We arrived at Tangalooma Resort from Holt Street Wharf after 1 hour and 15 minutes cruise.
#5.Love the blue green sea. The weather wasn't really perfect as the wind were just too strong. All the watersports activities had to be cancelled!
We should be thankful as big storm wasn't there, as most of you probably heard of the big crazy hail storm that made thousands of people homeless in brisbane recently. >__< crazy weather
#6. Thanks for holding my hairs. *hiak hiak *
#7. Some random beautiful sky scenes of Moreton Island.
#8. These huts are so cute! This is where people enjoy their casual meals while sightseeing the view of Moreton.
#9. See! Very casual right. so relaxing.
Shortly after we arrived in Moreton Island, we followed a lady guide who showed us around. Basically just to tell us where the main restaurants are located, where to register for activities, where to find police if a crime is in progress (seriously, they do have police station on the island)
We then being brought to our hotel to unload our baggages.
and
Transformed ourselves into beach girls.
#10. missyevachou+missysheaulei+missyevalee
Seriously, I love the weather! It's not too hot like sizzling and burning hot, but the weather is bright and just nice for photographs and almost perfect to go for a walk on the beach.
#11. missyelin and me. For one second, I thought we were holding hands.
#12. me with miss giant :P
#13. Cheers to our happy time together. ^_____^
To be continued.

Trip Blog.
I wanted to continue to write more about the awesome trip we went to. But by the time when I finished dinner and linger in the dining room, I looked up, and it was 9pm! For God's sake, time passes so fast!
So please be patient with me. I will try my best to blog when I have time.
Let's go back to the time when we start planning this retreat. I remembered it was in the second semester of our first year studying together, initially we planned to go snow boarding or a road trip together or just somewhere nice to go to. But it's always easier said than done. We never get the chance to travel together which is a shame, really.
It's so hard to get 5 of us together anymore. You know, especially when most of us have to work and "anti social" has became our best friends now.
So, we must get together this time, No matter how strong the wind is, no matter how crazy the weather is, WE MUST GO!
Sigh! Can I say, the greatest regret of this trip is, one member is missing in the gang. Kelly couldn't make it to the trip!!!!!!!!! I will never forgive her! Although it wasn't really her fault, she was feeling really sick the day before. HAIH! Well, it's her fault, isn't it. She should really take good care of herself and prepare for the upcoming trip! >___<
But we had our fun and it was sooooooooooooo much fun! Dolphins feeding, lots of gal's talk, sand boarding, sun tanning.....
Oh my! It was my first time, and the fish eaters are just toooooooooo adorable!
Argh..I want to scream. Dolphins are really really super duper cute! and innocent! and friendly! and intelligent! and cute! and adorable.......and don't you think when you look at them, they always look like they are smiling at you.
*love*
Okay. It's time to cut the crap and show some photos.
But.
....
Wait
I need to take a bath first. brb

For you.
A blog entry from mum today. I shed tears when I was half way reading this in the office today. Lucky enough that it was nearly 6pm in the evening and everyone has gone home except a few of us.
Yes mama. We miss you terribly just like how you misses us. And we love you dearly just like your love for us. I am never without you. You know how lucky I am to have a great mom like you. You accept us not only daughters but friends. I LOVE YOU!

call me youngster.
We were all once innocent. Well, basically I was once innocent and young. When I look at them, I literally see myself at their age. I sounded like I am alot older, aren't I? Indeed, I am. LOL
Anyway, regardless of the age differences, I just lurvvve hanging out with them. Sweethearts like them brought me laughters and smiles! *muaks*
#1. Me and my so called "cousin". Well, accurately, she's my "auntie" you know, our relationship is a bit too complicated and please pardon me for not explaining it well here. How can you expect me to call a 19-year-old gal auntie, right? So she has been going around and telling everyone I am her "biao2 jie3" That looks more like it, hey. hehe
#2. me with Liting, Yenling, and Xiaoqian :))
#3. The girls :))
#4. When we sang " the first day" Wooh!
#5. They invited us for dinner the next day. Two thumbs up for Liting who has great talent in cooking! And she's just so sweet that she can remember what dishes I liked and was trying hard to find ingredients just to cook for me. *hug*
#6. And my little "auntie" who has never cooked before- trying to cook for us too. *muaks*
How can I not love you all? ^-^

I carry your heart with me by ee cummings
Last night while watching "In Her Shoes", I heard this poem for the very first time. And it gave me goosebumps, even now I have goosebumps while I am writing this, it is definitely a heart touching poem, really. Such beautiful poem made me weep uncontrollably as I listened to her reading it out loud to her sister.
Absolutely beautiful. The deepest thing I would ever like to say to people I love.
This is for ..many yous.
i carry your heart with me
i carry it in my heart
i am never without it
anywhere i go you go,my dear;
and whatever is done by only me is your doing,my darling
i fear no fate
for you are my fate,my sweet
i want no world
for beautiful you are my world,my true
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;
which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart
i carry it in my heart

Me being emotional. and homesick.
The catching sight of mum's unmistakable handwriting on the envelope sitting on my office desk has lighten up my day. :)
I stared at her handwriting one minute and I almost burst into tears. There was something in her handwriting that reached deep down and unknowingly touched my heart. I feel loved! so loved!
wo ai ni, mama!

Keeping myself organized.
Probably one of the many reasons I enjoy working is, when there's alot of work need to be done, I normally write down a daily to-do list, and when I tick each job off that list, the sense of great achievement actually makes me feel proud and productive!
I like it when I can start filing all my paperworks, because it means task is completed and paperworks can then be filed. Hence, I like to keep my desk neat and tidy before I left from work each day. You know, normally your desk will be a mess when everything's waiting for you to be solved.
It seriously means so much to me when I can keep things up!

Happy Birthday
I know it's a bit too late to blog about David WW Chan's birthday which happened nearly 3 months ago. I apologize but I am a busy girl, you know. Yeah right, I was just being lazy. :P
But seriously, there was nothing very exciting, just another casual birthday celebration. *blek* Yeah.We've grown older and older and birthday is just another day for us, because now I realize I started to hate counting the candles. Simply because when there are too many to count, it's not fun anymore!
Hmph!
...........................................................................................................................................
Bowling.
I will never scored more than 100 points but you had 181 points! Good on you, D!
See! I only achieved 70 points! Shame on you, L! >___<
Played like a high school gal.
Basically, what I did was just walk to the front and drop the ball. Yeah. That was it. I am a dummy, I know.
I am never good at bowling. Never. But it was definitely a fun thing to do. :))

It's all about narcissism
So I camwhored a little...... just a little.
...........................................................................................................................................
Forgiving and forgetting.
I have made a promise that I will forgive and forget, because simply I don't want it stressing me out. I don't want to feel stuck in a battlefield that I can't escape for future offensive attacks.

my days.
When I ride my bicycle, I love the cool air blowing through my hair.
The great scent of my clean Pantene's hair smells good.
Looking up the sky, I see Jacaranda tree stands tall and sway in the breeze.
I love this romantic period of time by Jacarandas.
It is so beautiful!
It mesmerises me every morning when I pass by. I couldn't stop but looking out of the window to capture a gaze of its beauty.
They are simply so good to look at. :)
