 ~ my boo ~ charming and metrosexual in his own way~

 

Its almost a year since I brought my ass to the states. I had a kick ass amazing journey, most of all I learn so much throughout this trip. I learn to become a more responsible person and more determine. I have found the missing puzzle that I look for . I hav always doubts of my own capabilities and this trip has enable me to see the true capability of myself. I m no longer hav doubts in what I can do, everything is possible if u try hard enuff . At this moment, I felt serenity and complete. My doubts has been answered. Being far away from home, I am able to be listen to what my hearts tell me rather just listens to whats everyone said. Lol. I am able to make decision based on my perceptions rather than the family perceptions. Basically I feel that I have grown up to be a better person . I gain courage, sympathy, empathy and well American manners. My educations bring me to another level of knowledge and I felt good in a way that I m no longer a fool. Lol. Then again part of me feel incomplete of the education, I wish I could bring it to another level. I am hoping that I could continue to be a radiologist or paramedics at least but I guess time and financial does not allow me to do so .

Most of all I have bring my relationship with Alex to another level . We have better understanding of each others than before. I truly appreciate that he had been with me through good days and bad ass days. He compensate his lack of sportsmanship with his sense of daily surviving intelligence aka dosmetic work. I compensate my lack of daily surviving intelligence with my extensive skills of sportsmanship. He taught me how to cook and I taught him how to swim. We basically complete each other. We even met in a funny way , we basically met at the club or should I say I met most of the important plp in my life’s at the club. Most plp say u always meet bad ass plp at the club but I have proven that u do meet good guys at the club. I had met my soulmate at the club, my best friend, and my god father. Therefore I should say its who u are that determine the kind of plp u meet.  However i guess faith plays a part in it. I was faithed to meet Alex, Sok fun and Fred in my life’s. They play such an important role in my life’s that they inspired me in so many ways.

I have decided to return to Malaysia soon. Therefore, I will blog as much as I could before the end of this trip.

Harvest Fest… September 30, 2008

Filed under: foods & alcohols — crystaltravailler @ 12:00 am

 

This afternoon Alex and I went to the harvest fest at the hill neighborhood. The hill neighborhood is like so call Beverly-hills in little rock. It is where all the huge gigantic house zone. Well its nothing like the little hut place where i m living but i like mine better coz’ this little hut place is surrounded by shopping mart like walmart, target , kohls indeed this is where all the malls area. Anyway once a while , we will go the hill neighborhood for some fancy restaurants. So today , we went to this Greek castle restaurant. So call castle, the foods is just simple Mediterranean foods and i m sorry to say ~to me its too normal probably we have lots of Mediterranean foods in msia. (for Malaysian if u wonder what is Mediterranean foods ?  u know the mamak foods we have like kebab is Mediterranean foods) . For American they find it pretty special , for us its just too normal foods . Then again we had fun at the harvest fest, basically its a fest there , lots foods and art stalls. I love art stalls, i love the knick knacks that they sell but i didn’t buy any coz’ i dont wear too artsy stuff , i m more of the basic girl who wear simple but edgy stuff. They have some belly dancing show there  and its pretty good to see some booty shaking. I kind of enjoy the fair but too bad they dont hav turkey leg. I love turkey leg. I am a meatarian. lol.

~the only time to eat a diet food is when u r waiting for the steak to cook~

Summer is almost over and here comes autumn. Oh, i cant get enuff of summer. The outdoor pool is close and i cant get my tan anymore. So I hit the gym and take a stroll along the lake by my apartment. It is a beautiful day, the weather is breezy and windy. I snap some eye candy pics of the lake and the apartment where i live. I am gonna miss this place. I am starting to pack my stuff to get ready to move to another unit next week and at the same time pack my stuff to florida too . I am so tired of moving and packing, now i kind of realize i can never b traveller coz’ i hate to pack~

Weekend was pretty relaxing. No drunkenness, just chilling out. Guess what , I m getting better , it has been 2 months since the last time I hit the club. Well on last fri nite , after shopping with ecka we went to a New Orleon restaurant, I had my fav seafood gumbo. It was so delicious that I forgotten to snap some pics. Than on Sat, Alex and me went to play time pizza. Its a all u can eat pizza place with some games like laser tag and glow in dark mini golf . Lets just say its more of a family oriented place like Genting Highlands in malaysia except no casino. The deco of the outlet is pretty nice, its very cute and if I were a kid, this would b haven. As a grew up I felt this is more like a day care place. Lol. Did I like it? Nah, I prefer something more xtreme something like jet ski at lake hamilton . Anyway it wasnt that bad coz we had fun.

 

I am so looking forward to Oct coz’ there r gonna b lots of event happen in oct. Its my graduation day , its also halloween, its also state fair and best of all Alex and me plan to go Florida for some sun and fun.

 

Oh yeah did u notice my new edgy hair cut? What ya all think? Its so short and I felt kind of naked.

p/s: Its nice to hear from a good old friend from malaysia, thanks mr lee for being kind and thoughtful all the time. 

 

Never underestimate yourself.. September 18, 2008

~ Florida Tampa Bay, cant wait to see the beautiful sunset there next month.

 

Yesterday I dropped by my college to fill up some paperworks for my graduation. Its hard to believe my journey almost comes to an end. I still remember when I first came to the states, I m lost and I had a hard time trying to understand the local slang. Its almost a year and I think I did pretty well for someone who has a poor command of english. I believe and I hope this would inspire people that never underestimate what u can do in life . I have a poor command of english yet I did pretty well in overall . My graduation will be next month and I m so looking forward for it. I feel I have completed the part of missing puzzle in my life. I always wanted to do a course which is mind challenging and i guess i did it. Though this chapter has comes to an end but to me its just a new begining to something more challenging in future.

Everyone ask me what I plan to do in future , I say I dont know coz I hardly plan for the future as I always do the best today for future. Any possibilities could happen, I might return home for good or I might return to the states again. There r so much of possibilities in life…

Being emotional is good or bad? September 15, 2008

Filed under: Uncategorized — crystaltravailler @ 12:54 am

 

 ~ my freaking mermaid moment~

 

I thought being empathy and sympathy in my work is important. I guess I was wrong or mayb I m not suitable for this job. Today I had a 70 yrs old patient . I did not call him in to the procedure room coz’ I consider his age n mobility limitation. So I thought I would wait till the doc is here n then I call him in. Then my colleagues was unhappy with what I did. She said I should have call the patient in asap. I dont understand why I have to let the poor old men wait lying on the bed when the doc is not in yet. I just kept quiet but my mind was thinking maybe I am too emotional for this job. I get mad when patients r mad at me, I cry when patients r very sick, I can b happy and sad at the same. I have too much emotions. Is being emotional is wrong? I should have been a cold hearted bastard and just do my job without thinking much. Someone used to tell me it takes a bitch to b a leader , thats means u gotta b cold hearted , strong n think logically more than emotionally. If it takes that to b a leader , I would rather not be. I cannot hide my emotions and I cant b someone cold hearted (the dolphin tattoo i had constent remind me of being kind and friendly). Maybe I should have to stick to past weird job as mermaid so I dont hav to deal with emotions, just deal with the fishes in the tank. Lol.

 

Courage, sympathy and empathy. September 9, 2008

Filed under: life — crystaltravailler @ 5:44 pm

 

My job has taught me not much about skill works or lab works. Somehow it taught me about how to deal with emotions . I m more prepare to sympathy and empathy about sick people now than before. I have seen many sick people in a day .Those who touch my heart r those who still stands strong and cheerful despite they r sick. There was this lady she is in her 30’s , beautiful and intellectual but she can’t walk and I guess she had cancer too. I felt sorry for her but she is very cheerful and she doesn’t make it a big deal that she cant walk. The courage that she showed it touched my heart. I guess the skill that I learn most at work is dealing with emotions. Working with sick peole it aint that easy coz’ some r nice yet some r not nice. It involve lots emotions to understand them and i dont really know how to deal with that. It drives me crazy.

Do you have deal with emotions at work? i guess there is always some emotions battle at work either with the plp u work with or the people u have to deal with. sucks right?

 ~ like a faggot~ lol

 ~ hotplate fajitas~ hmm

 

I m finally off from work. So I decided to update whats going on for the past week. Labour day aka slave day was on Monday so we had a day off. Alex and me decided to accompany Lamont to do sum shopping for his upcoming trip to Amsterdam .Lucky bastard. He told us he gonna party hard and smoke hard there. I hope he manage to cum back little rock. Lol.

 

Anyway while we shop around we somehow end up at a costume shop. Then I decided to shop early for my halloween costume. Last year I wore a devil suit and I look hot in it. Lol. So,I try out few suits included a police women suit, an ugly superman suit, a mile high club officer, and a playmate bunny. I was very keen on the officer suit but they said I look NOT so hot in it. So everyone vote for the stupid playmate bunny suit. Laugh as u want it but I m gonna dress it up and party hard this halloween as this might b my last halloween in the states. I am not gonna show u the pic of the bunny suit as I will post it on halloween and suprisee! All of u can laugh out loud..

 

Mayb I can re-wear the bunny suit when I go party at Thailand. Lol. The evening end with mexican foods at El Porton, the fajitas was so delicious and the margarita was ohh ahh deliciousss. Its hard to imagine I had margarita every weekend. Anyway dont worry i m sober all the time.
