The Belated (Surprise) Birthday Celebration

| Tuesday, November 10, 2009

 

Short Note:
Spirithrift is updated! Go have a look.


Due to the reason that Bobby has to work on Friday, so instead of celebrating it on the actual day, we postponed it to Saturday.

No rush, no frills.

But during the lunch date we had, Bobby told me a rather bad news saying that there’s few glitches in the company’s system and if the problem remain unsolved, he might need to stay back to work during the weekend. And of course, he’ll try his best to make it for our agreed date.

And on Saturday morning, I happily updated my FB status stating that I was so going to be Queen for the day having Bobby coming down to pick me up for a fabulous date. Just minutes after posting it up, Bobby came to me with a rather bad news….

He’s in the office trying to solve the problem now and he couldn’t promise that he’ll be able to make it for the date.

With a heavy heart, I prayed and hoped and wished that the problem will be answered but in the end, Bobby confirmed that he had to stay back the whole day and had to cancel my already-belated-now-tak-jadi-lagi birthday celebration.

Sigh.

But being the super sweet and understanding girlfriend that I should be, I didn’t scream nor cry or went all berserk swearing at him. Just replied him that I understand and it’s fine…

Sad till I couldn’t bear to see my FB profile because the stupid status is mocking me.

 

So, having no back-up plan no nothing, I just did what I always do on a typical afternoon, nap.

Then FussyKelly texted me and asked me out for dinner.

I felt really reluctant and it’s quite obvious.

I was sulking because I was expecting them to ask me out on my birthday but they didn’t. Now baru ask.. late a bit or not oh….

But then, I had nothing better to do anyway. So I agreed to go with a sibeh bu-gan-yen (tak rela / unwilling) mood.

In the end, SL texted me that he’ll pick me up at 7pm.

So okay lor.
He picked me up at 7pm, I was wearing my dirty cloths from yesterday’s lunch date with Wei Kee and Xiao Yen, hair still dripping water because I showered late and didn’t have enough time to towel dry my hair.

Oh oh, my hair dryer rosak and that’s another reason.
(Hair dryer is, was my birthday wish list that I planned to ask the besties to buy me this year. LOL)

Sitting in the car, I asked SL where are we heading to. He answered Bucanneer.
(Crap! I can’t spell Buccaneer! Is it double C, double E or what? Hai yah…)

Me : WHY BUCCANEER? WHO PICKED BUCANEER ONE?! EEYER! I WEAR TILL SO UGLY! WHY GO BUCANEER WOR? SIEN EH…..

SL (with a   tone) : Don’t ask me.. I follow orders nia one…

 

Sekali……. 7.30pm liao that da-xiao-jie FussyKelly hadn’t arrived yet.
Dulan till me ahhhhhh….

Damn hungry liao lagi.

I didn’t care and went on ordering what I wanna eat.

Theen: Har? You wanna order liao ah? You don’t want to wait for them?

Me : WHY HAVE TO WAIT? THEY LATE WOR! I VERY HUNGRY AND DULAN NOW! I DON’T NEED THEIR APPROVAL FOR WHAT I WANT TO EAT WHAT. I WANT TO ORDER NOW!

 

See how dulan was I…
(I’m a very horrible person when I’m hungry. Feed me and I’ll be very nice to you)


Then came Kelly and KL.
I was still sulking.

When we’re all talking, I slammed myself on the table and kept chanting how hungry was I. I took a glimpse on the door and saw shadow of a man holding flowers thinking,

“Ee yer, dunno which salao there… “

 

Yes, you guess right.
That salao is Bobby.

He came in with a big bouquet of lilies.
I was shocked.
Not in a happy jumpy way that you saw on movie ah, like those happy girl jumps on to her lover and round 3 rounds macam di pantai.

Tabalik, I wasn’t even laughing or smiling.

Me: Eh why you here? Your work finished liao ka? Problem solved already?

Bobby : Mmm… errr… you want to take the flower first?

Me : You lie to me hia? Aiyer, so malu got flowers lagi..

Bobby : Ba, you gonna take the flowers or not?

Me : Ba, sit lah.. Eh, you lie to me is it?
*@@#!#@%^%^&%$ (bombarded Bobby with long strings of questions)


Then all my friends were like, Eh… people so far come down plan all these lagi, why your reaction like that one oh?

Ya, only after like 5 minutes, I baru felt awake and acted normally giggling and laughing like my usual self. Yes, took me 5 minutes to register the idea that Bobby planned this all up and threw me this surprise party.



Now, photos time.

02
The man behind all these. You know, he looks damn sincere and so when he’s lying, I can’t even tell the difference. Dangerous eh!

And my lilies.
Nice kan? MY favorite flower~

The last time he bought me lilies was when he made me super angry by being late.

 01

Then Kelly came up to me with a smaller bouquet of flowers and told me that was why she’s late. The small bouquet of flowers is what I picture my wedding bouquet to look like on my wedding day eh!

So pretty!

04



And, the girls said that the “fail” thing about this surprise was… I under-dressed and didn’t put on any makeup.

Note to self: PUT ON MAKEUP, WEAR LIKE A BUTTERFLY EVERYWHERE YOU  GO!

03
Darlings. Theen, Kelly and the makeup-less me with oily face and wet hair (had to tie them up so I wouldn’t look that bad)

 

 

 

05
See, the same shirt I wore to my lunch date with Wei Kee (left) and Xiao Yen (right)

 

 

06

Fooooooooooooooooooooooood! My Roast Spring Chicken and Bobby’s Black Pepper Chicken. B$ 9 each. Lovely!

 

07

Bobby did that very lao-tu (old fashion / kampung) thing again. Asking the restaurant to play me the Happy Birthday song while he took the cake out for me. 

Buccaneer and Buccaneer, can upgrade the birthday song or not? Very embarrassing having the kiddie version played with the “How old are you now?” 
 

 

08

I love the cake. It’s Mango cheese cake from Bakerlyn.
Small small I like. 


 

09
Everyone of us
Bobby, James, KL, SL
King, Theen, Kelly.

 

 

10
Kelly bought Theen flower too~
So sweet right?
Friendship maintenance wtf. HAHHAHHHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAA.

 

11
Oh oh, the present is from Theen. My second gift of 2009.
Kerlian hor, as you get older, the less number of gifts you get for your birthday too.

 

 

12
Gorgeous gifts from the people I love.

 

 

 

13
Sorry ah, camwhore a bit.

 

Theen’s gift to me is…..

14
Ceng ceng ceng, hair dryer!
WHICH I WANTED FOR MONTHS BUT WAS TOO KARIT TO BUY AND DIE DIE WANT TO WAIT TILL BIRTHDAY AND “WAT” MY FRIENDS TO BUY FOR ME.

And this, is going to be my birthday gift from Kelly. 
Hope it’s going to be good.

 

 

Then came my birthday card from my man….


It’s a really unique birthday card. Love the idea.
My boyfriend is creative-r than yours.

15

Can tell what is it?
It’s a MOBILE PHONE!

Brand - Nonnie, Series – A Plus (pasal my result)

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLLLL!

What? Don’t look like a phone?
Ya lor, at first I also thought it’s a PSP.
Hahahahha

 

16
The Menu.
The last bit that he has not color.
He was like, “Eh.. can you give me 5 minutes? I need to complete your card…”

He said he has some coloring to do and I volunteered to help him.
So yeah, I’ll be the one coloring the menu page later.

 

17

It’s a slide qwerty phone ah don’t play play.
Really can slide up one okay.
Like dopod. Hehehheeh

(And when Bobby saw Vky’s SideKick that swirls, he felt so defeated that he should have used that idea instead) 

 

18
Message to me.
My boyfriend is the best!

 
Then, he showed me this again… the back of the “phone”

19

 

 

Then,

20

 

 

21

Complete one leh!!
Damn keh-si lah my birthday card.
Where to find boyfriend like that?
All original one leh.
No stickers, no colorful cards from scrapbook stores. 
Just art block, color pencils and 3 pins.

 

 

22
Damn happy exploring my birthday card~

 

 

 

23
The artist. AHHAHAHHAAHHAHAHA.

 

Oh oh, this is totally random…

24
my books from Eslite arrived liao.

Those comic books are damn jackass funny! One is about happenings in the office, and the other one is about showbiz.
By a popular TV producer in Taiwan. Aiyah, say liao you all also don’t know one lah.

I found part 1 of both comics in Popular 12 years ago. Never knew got part 2 till I browse Eslite website. Macam stumble upon pot of gold like that.

Read some comic stripes to Bobby and he also felt very funny and kek-tiok by the dialogues.

And the other novel, no need introduction liao.

 

25
piau liang mah?

 

 

Went to KB wet market upstairs to have breakfast.
Eh, that place got formal name or not ah?
A bit paiseh cos everytime only call it “Pasar upstairs” nia.

My favorite breakfast place despite of the heat.

26
Our crazy brunch.

  • (Zhu Jak) Porridge for each of us - $1.80 each
  • $1 cha-koi (still crunchy!)
  • Fried Kuay Tiaw with sunny side up - $2.30
  • American breakfast - $2.50 (Yes! That big plate of fries/2 sausages/bake beans/toast/coleslaw/sunny side up is only $2.50! Don’t chu wish you live in KB town? Don’t chuuuuuuu~)
  • Teh C panas ($0.60 each)

You Bandar people don’t come down and keep saying Seria/KB food very cheap ah. Later those vendors hear you naik harga I kill you ah! Don’t spoil market. Hahahhaa.

Don’t chuuu wish you live in Kay Bee town?
Don’t chuuu wish the food is super cheap?
Don’t chuuu wish you can eat like this?
Don’t chuuuuuuuuuu
Don’t chuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu~

Hahhahaa.
 

Went for a little shopping and bought this~

27

 

 

28

Hahahaa. It’s something like Jengga but I don’t know, this is cuter~

P1060361

 

P1060366

Fat wish lah of course.
I think I’ll start shaking with my jaws trembling once HM is right in front of me.

Went to Cheezbox for lunch….
Very disappointing lor.          

P1060389 P1060382

P1060383

Ordered their new lunch menu, Pan fried fish fillet with boiled vegetables.


It’s suppose to be a healthy dish because fish mah, sure healthy one. Abuthen… look at the leftover oil…

 P1060384

I had to tilt my plate when I was eating to avoid those oil…

If it’s olive oil okay lah.. but for a $8.80 meal with free flow of fruit punch, I doubt they will use olive oil lah.

Damn kick. Will never ever order this again.



P1060387 P1060388

Vicky’s food came like 40 minutes late. Even Bobby, who arrived and placed his order 20 minutes after us had his food arrived first than Vicky.

 

DoraMabel invited me to join Muay Thai class.

P1060390
(Don’t ask what stupid pose is that… I don’t know what the heck I was thinking too..)

 

I was a bit hesitant at first when Mabel asked. Because, it was my birthday and.. want meh? Muay Thai on birthday, very tiring one wor. I was secretly hoping the besties will asked me out for dinner but they didn’t. So okay lah, better than staying at home looking at ceiling mah.


I guess because everyone thought that I will be celebrating with Bobby but no lor, he always celebrates my birthday on the Saturday after my birthday no matter which day my birthday falls on.

Good also lah, at least no need rush rush and Sunday no need to work mah.

 P1060391
We were trying out a pose till Mark (the trainer in white) asked us to get in line and get serious.

Hence you can only see Ivan and SukChin posing.
DoraMabel was trying to strangle me and when Mark talked to us, Mabel and Chloe turned their heads away.

Hence the above funny photo…..



 P1060392

Surprise Birthday Cupcakes from them when I was at the counter with SukChin paying the bill.

Very steady one lor, they used those kacau-people punya candles. I blew the candles at least 6 – 8 times ah! My cheeks tired till like what.

 P1060393
Gave Mark one cupcake therefore there’s only 8 left.

And sorry ah, I don’t know how to look gorgeous after a sweaty and tiring muay thai session. Seriously, I looked like crap yesterday.


P1060394
Went to SukChin house to take shower before heading off for dinner.

SukCHin’s dog sibeh smart only choose Mabel’s shoe to bite and hide.
HAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAA

Must have really good smell one that shoe.


 P1060395
Went to Zaika.

  P1060397 Last Thursday, it was also the 3 of us only having BBQ at Mabel’s place and had a sleepover.


P1060398
Their super nice drink with 3 cherries and a slice of plum.

 

P1060399
Beef ribs, which tasted a lot better compare to my first visit in RMS.

 P1060400 P1060402
East meets West meal.

P1060401

My super awful drink.
I seriously gotta quit being so adventurous trying out something “I never try before”

The name of the drink is Jal-Jeera.
It’s like… some Indian herbs + Plenty of Salt + Somboi powder…

Yes, zero sweetness!
I ordered this because it says “relieve heatiness” on the menu.
What? I scare pimple popping waaaa…

Sekali, not only the color macam longkang water, the taste…. super scary also!

I gave SukChin and Mabel a sip and both of them cannot tahan already.
Mabel even said, “One sip already want to bang my head on the wall liao (long pia)”….

 

P1060403P1060404P1060406

P1060405  P1060407


But.. cannot waste food. I die die tried to finish it.
By the fifth sip, I already think I saw white light before my eyes liao…..

Tears also come out ah I tell you!


Anyway, you guys can try order this drink if you want. Test your level of tolerance mah.

 

 


Told Bobby that I want to have a surprise on my birthday and he said he’ll try.

Then I asked again, “Don’t tell me the surprise for my birthday is having no surprise at all ah.. I kill you I tell you!”

So yeah, let’s wait and see what happens tomorrow~


 

Oh ya, for those who read my FB status knew that I had a super memorable birthday yesterday…

I left my keys in my room and locked myself out stupidly…

 

My current FB status reads…

Yes, a very memorable birthday indeed. 4 words explain it all, 自作自受 ! Left my keys at home, flushed myself out from Muay Thai running, punching, kicking like a dog, ordered Jal-Jeera and tasted like longkang water....

 

I think it’s karma. I sort of complained that last year I had way too many cakes and too many celebration. Not really celebration plang, but my 2008 birthday is hell lot of fun and surprises…

Ok, minus the fact that I had to spend 3 hours at Ckg Mansor’s yellow boot camp hearing him swearing ninimu at us. Hahhahaa. I miss that quirky man!

Yu-Faaaaaaaaaa

P1060319

 P1060320

Wah seh… cute like what ah~

Yeap, that’s Bobby’s Halloween props and I die-die wanna try it out.
Not bad hor? Got the kick in it.

 

To balance out a bit, here’s a photo of me looking all normal…

P1060311

Took off the tudung and shoes and walked down hill barefooted.
It’s a bliss!

Well, the full body white baju kurung kinda made me look like a ghost when I went to tamu Kianggeh for early breakfast though.. LOL.

A proud D.I.E-r

| Saturday, October 31, 2009

 

After 10 months of going back to student’s life and not forgetting to mention, salary-less for that long period of time, stressing myself out wondering how was I going to cope with pressure of paying my monthly expenses without asking a penny from my parents and the kiasu-ness in me of wanting to prove to the rest of the world that I can, or actually, it’s just me myself, I finally made it through!

With flying rainbow colors lagi~

P1060292
Auntie I mean, Mom (I seriously need to quit the habit of calling my mum auntie just to tease her) and Chocolate Pau.

  • Using ITB robe because it’s borrowed from a friend’s friend, *cough* F.O.C.
  • Many thanks to Soly for lending me her killer pointy heels which I tak sanggup to wear for more than 15 minutes and also Norol for lending me the super nice $40 tudung because the one provided was too starchy and made me look like a super Pau!
  • A kind pretty young girl who lend her black diploma robe for photoshoot too. Hahahhhaa.
  • Yeap, head to toes all pinjam orang one. Tudung, robe, shoes~
  • Karitness rocks!
  • Alex said, “Wah bargain convo! You memang terror”
  • Of course, don’t play play~

P1060295
(The killer heels mentioned above. I nearly died walking up from the carpark to ICC lah!)

pau
(Pau or not? Pau till no tomorrow ah! – Photo taken during full-dressed rehearsal)

 

Hahahhaha! Like my friend said, “Eh nebermine bah, you got Lulus dengan Cemerlang, who cares you Pau or not….”

True true true.

*Hidung tinggi*
 P1060321

Hwa hwa hwa hwa hwa hwa hwa hwa hwa hwa!

Not yet not yet.
Got one more more steady one. Scare die you I tell you!

 P1060322 

Pardon me for being such a kanasai lansi girl.
I just couldn’t help it….

What? I didn’t buy anything to “encourage” myself okay…
So just let me puji-diri in my blog la.

As a matter of fact, I didn’t get anything, NOTHING, TAK ADA, for this super blink-till-you-blind-flying-colors-result lor.

Sad hor?

Why oh why?
Can someone (in UBD) tell me why am I not awarded the book prize?

In-service no need encouragement?
One-year diploma course is not as important as others?

So yeah, just bear with me for being so snobbish here.
I need to balance sikit.

 

Anyway, I was interviewed by Pilihan this morning (I think it’s just a random pick) and… I think I was tad too straight-forward….


“Tell us more about yourself. Your name and the course you took”

“Hi, I’m Nonnie and I took Diploma in Education bracket in service”

(Ya, WTFish to the max right? I actually did said out the “bracket in service” … –_-?)

After like 3, 4 questions answered….

“So, can you give any suggestions, tips or any comments to those who’s currently working and maybe can take course like you?”

“Go for it! Better salary and job perspective! Why not right?”

Good Nonnie very good… You just told the whole world how much you love money.
Very good.
Super good.

“And are you going to further your studies again in the future?”

“Definitely!”

“It would be in UBD or overseas?”

“UBD… because it’s nearer to home.”

 

You see Nonnie King, this is why you suck in networking and socializing.
Cannot think of better answers meh?
Why didn’t you mention UBD is very good, I love UBD that sort of answers meh?
Ee yer!

But to be honest, I would be really really grateful if I can take degree or even master in UBD. I don’t ask for much, I just to improve/upgrade providing better future for my family and also next generations.



Anyway, I have to wait till my friends upload photos to FB then I can share with you all my convo pictures. I super obey the rules loh. I didn’t brought bag, food,camera and mobile phone in the hall, unlike most of my friends who smuggled in those stuffs putting them all in a clutch and put it under their armpits.

So yeah…
Blog again soon.


This is, I think, maybe last entry categorized under “A Student’s Life”.

Convo Drama

| Wednesday, October 28, 2009

 

WHY IS SOLIYATY ANGGIYANIE SITTING SO FAR AWAY FROM ME MASA CONVO????????

 

Eee yer!

She had been next to me whenever we’re seen together wa!
We have the same pace, same thoughts, same type of silly humour that only both of us understand.

Ai yer!

And her melodramatic-self today screamed the same in FB too.

sol

HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!
So funny Mett’s comment lah.



Anyway, tomorrow have to reach ICC by 6.15am ler.
Meaning, have to start driving from Seria at 5am… maybe?
I just hope I won’t snooze my alarm.



And hor, I was super-duper mad at this stupid time-waster on Monday. She made me waited for her for 45 minutes!!!!!

Okay la, I know if you have to minta tolong from someone, have to tahan la… But then, this one … I really don’t know what to say lah.

I have zero patience when it comes to punctuality! 15 minutes of waiting time is like my maximum tolerance already.

Before that day, I had already texted her that I would be going to BSB on Monday and meet her in the afternoon since she lives in Tutong. And on Monday itself, while I was on my way back to Seria, I sms-ed her asking for her address. But with my limited knowledge on geographical location in Tutong, I opted for an easier choice, let’s just meet at Hua Ho Tutong, if it’s not too far from her.

She replied, Ok. Are you coming from KB now?

No, I’m already in Tutong.

Ok, just wait. I take shower first.




What the……
I already told her that I was in Tutong liao yet she wanted to take a shower first.

So okay la… no choice.
I need the favor from her.
Cannot complain….

I texted her again telling her that I need to get back to Seria by 3.45pm.
And it was approaching 3pm that time.

So I waited …. and waited… and waited in Hua Ho. I got nothing to buy and I suck in shopping. Very sien la…

Then 3.30pm liao (30 minutes okay! I don’t wait that long for people one.) , she’s still not here yet.
I sms-ed her asked if she’s coming or not.
She replied “otw”.

Then…. I waited … and waited.. and waited again…
3.45pm…..
I sms-ed her again, telling her I really don’t have the time to wait already and asked if she’s reaching.

She replied,
“Give me few more minutes. You should have tell me earlier. I don’t drive a plane you know.



GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!

I WANNA STRANGLE HER LAHHHHHH


Cry also no tears ah…!!!!

 

 

Okay. Ending rant.


 

 

 

Anyway, I’m joining the JPMC car boot sale this coming Sunday.
But I have not prepared for anything yet.
Die lah.


 

Then convo this Saturday.
I only have this Friday to prepare everything la….

Then, I don’t have umbrella lagi in the car.

And, I have no idea how car boot sales look like.
And, how to arrange the items ah?
And, sure very hot hor? No shelter one…
And, and, and,

okay la okay la

I will be rajin to update Spirithrift.

Updates for Week 43

| Sunday, October 25, 2009

 

Paiseh hor… Had been really malas to blog.

Okay, just some photos and happenings last week… or, last last week. Heh heh.

01

Cooked Tofu Longan for DoraMabel’s birthday party.

My mum’s recipe is really easy.

- 1 can of Ideal milk (evaporated.. I think?)
- 1 packet of agar-agar mixture
- 9 bowls (small – those we use for soup) of water
- 1 bowl of sugar

Mix all together, stir slowly until boiled.
Add to tray and chill.

That’s how you make those soft tofu!

Then, add longans and fruit cocktails (and also those syrup from the can la)
I a bit kiasu la… I frozen up those longans to give them some crisps.
I didn’t use any ice cubes as it will dilute the liquid.
If you really wanna add ice cubes, I suggest you use the syrup and frozen them up into syrup-cubes~

No shortcut one if you want it to be delicious. 


07

Not bad eh. The first to habis you know my longan tofu!
Muahahhahaaa. *Big nostrils*

27
Had a crazy bouncer night.

It was so damn fun that everyone went home with bruises and scraps. Threw water balloons and James even dropped ice cubes on me.

 

 

 P1060224

Had a major make-over, okay, maybe not make-over, more like… pusing sini pusing sana itu meja kerusi. Ah! More like change feng-shui, in the staffroom.
P1060234
The after-mess


P1060236
Plenty of PSJ’s pets (spiders, lizards and dead bodies of all sort of insects) came out to play.

P1060245

I love where I’m sitting now. Even if it’s like, 4 steps away from my previous seat.

4 of us get to sit together! Yipeeeeee!!!!
Next to me is Vicky.
Opposite is Shirley.
Next to Shirley, is Rohana~

The pudding dog is mine.
Straw hat and the black Macbook belong to Vk.
Green Asus is Shirley’s and the pink Mac is Rohana’s.

I was like,
“Move all your files away! I must see your face! No obstacles blocking my view!”

Wek wek wek~
Happy Happy~

P1060237
You have no idea how our colleagues feed us!

Few months ago when we still have Ckg Aisah, we had soto, kampung fried rice, cucur everything everyday! Have to admit, most of us suffered from food-depression when we walked to her (ex) table just to realise she’s not there anymore.

But fear no more… We still have plenty of other colleagues who cook for us.
Heh Heh Heh heh!
Or, they’ll order food.

It was crazy last Thursday, we had…..

P1060240
CRABS!!!!! Ketam for breakfast! No kidding!

Along with curry chicken, plain rice, tumpi, mee goreng and mee tiaw goreng!
No kidding.

So please, I don’t need you to tell me I gain weight.
I know.

It’s impossible when you have breakfast like that everyday you know.
(Plus, my mum prepares breakfast for me every morning too. I really eat like a “king” in the morning no play play!)

P1060244

Oh, we they had been eating durian quite often these days too.
Cucur tarap, bubur durian, cucur everything!

 

P1060246

Aw… I PSJ!   

Love Love Love E(bay)-Shopping!

Everyone knows how much I hate it when I walk in a shop and sales attendants start to tailgate me and trying to make small talks convincing me to make purchase.

And then, I discovered E-shopping!
No need to talk to anyone.
Don’t like the price, don’t buy.
All the latest stuffs which is not available in Brunei yet.

No, I’m not talking about blogshops.
As a matter of fact, I still have not pop my “buying from local blogshops” cherry.

I’m talking about…….. EBAY!

*cue gasps from audience*



Hahahahhahaha!

I don’t know why some people gave me the “OMG! She dares to buy things from Ebay! Secondhand stuffs! Fake! Later people don’t kirim out how?! Rosak one! Tipu one!” looks when I told them I got it from ebay. Especially with that disgusted tone.


 

For most, Ebay is like a myth. Some says its good, some says it’s bad, mostly, EVIL and ADDICTIVE! And what motivated me to dare dare press the button to confirm bid was when my colleague bought an authentic Coach bag. Yes, authentic! With the card, box, receipt and even dust bag! NWT! And it did arrived to her doorstep. Then, I took out my credit card and signed up for Paypal, testing testing dulu. The first thing I bought from Ebay was…. erasers.

Hehehee. What? As if you all don’t know I love erasers and collect them.
(And I’m thinking if I should open a hobby blog just to showcase my precious.
Iwako erasers for my birthday?)


Because it’s not very expensive and, if really hilang or whatever unfortunate happens to the parcel, at least I won’t feel that bad. Take it as a lesson lo. But it did arrived!

Then I started to buy more and more stuffs…
But never exceed $100 lah.
All small small items ranging from gadgets like my QuikPod to I don’t know…

I’d help others get their stuffs from ebay too because not all has Paypal, to the extent that, I visited the post office like twice a week. Sampai the staffs there no need see my card also could find my items, and also those lovely custom officers. When they saw me, they would ask, “Apa barang kali ini?”

LOL.


I don’t know ah. The feeling of receiving mails are damn good bah!
It’s like Christmas!
You don’t know what’s inside till you open it up.

01
The parcels that I received yesterday, all from Ebay sellers.


05

Keyboard skin – USD 3.50.

Free shipping.
With battery case and straps also la of course. 


02
The most expensive!

Bobby’s super old football comic that costs a bomb (in my opinion). But that’s his only obsession so I guess it’s okay. He’s not into cars, not into expensive sports, not into alcohol, doesn’t smoke, gamble and even baju also buruk-buruk one. These comics are what he really loves so can lah, eventhough it’s a little expensive.

He had been bugging me last few days (EVERYDAY!)
“Bi…. my books arrive already?”

Yesterday, after collecting the parcels from post office, I text him,

“Hohoho! Merry Nonniemas! Gimme chocolate milk and cookies and I’ll give you your comic books!”

“Alright yeah yeah. How does Patchi and Famous Amos sounds? This is the best news I’ve heard for today. You’ve made my day. Thank you”

“No. I want Starbucks Caramel Mocha. That one enough liao. Hehehe. I wrap 10 layers of newspapers, put cellotape somemore, see you frustrated unwrapping it more fun”

“You got yourself a deal. Why not put it in a cake? Hahaha”

“Kanasai! Its suppose to make you cry one. Tabalik kana you request for cake lagi. I really kalah”


 



p.s: Anyone in UK can tolong source it? Mahal wah the shipping! Bobby still has some outstanding issues to complete his collection.

 

 

 

And, I just won this (pretty baby) bid from Ebay yesterday.

HDQ_IDGARDENNY_FD20090930100838078991111

Gossip Girl inspired feather headband – USD 4.50 (Free shipping)
Buy it now price – USD 9.99.

(Hah! Damn good bargain kan?)

These “in” headbands are ridiculously priced in local (blog)shops and I couldn’t even bear to watch them. The karit-ness in me just say no.

 

And and, my colleague bought a sidekick from Ebay too!
Unlocked! For only $100+


Of course, I do know that there’s some risks in buying stuffs from ebay because it’s not there to hold and try. But, my advice is… read the feedbacks of the seller, establish communications and… don’t buy things yang mahal-mahal lah. Because mahal one I also scare won’t sampai or kana tipu. LOL. You want good bargains, must do a little homework mah.

Please don’t hold me responsible if you want to buy things from ebay and the things never sampai, or is different from what you expect ah.
