Secret or Gossips

I agree that there is no secret between the families. For the past few days, I have been talking to my cousins from both sides of my families. I feel a little embarrassed but actually is very very pai seh.

My cousin Charmaine, told me in msn “Don’t worry, you are not alone, we are all one big family”. It took me a few minutes to ponder why she said such thing to me. I don’t remember saying anything stupid to her. She said my grandma told her that I cried the other day when I was talking to my dad which was one day before CNY’S eve. I was like…the whole world knows.

Next cousin, May May. She said “We talked about you the other day”. I wondered what they talked about. She said “Your dad told us that you cried”. OMG, I was so embarrassed and I said “I bet that my dad spill everything out”. She said “No, partly by him and partly by Khai Liang”. I am going to kill him when he comes back to UK. Guess what he told my entire cousin!! “She has a family photo on her table”. Omg…I was speechless at that point of time. She said it is alright and nothing to be embarrassed about.

I admit that I have been crying for the past few days before CNY. I tried to hold back my tears but it was really hard. So I burst out crying. My dad was very upset when he saw me crying. It is not my fault but this is the first time here in UK alone. My dad said that KL will be coming in September so in future I wont feel lonely during the festive seasons. Yeah, it is very true.

I was planning to go back next year to celebrate CNY because is the year of Tiger and I am born in the year of tiger. I know that if I go back, I will get double ang pau. I realized that I can’t go back because my passport will be at the immigration office. This is so sad.

Anyway, I know that you all have a fun time celebrating. Have fun.

Desperate and Hungry for Money

I realized that it is time for me to do something useful and not just sleep and shake legs at home. I want to do something that is extraordinary because I am hungry and desperate for money.

I applied for an ambassador job under the Hallam Volunteering. I am accepted to the job. It is just a three days job and for 8.5 hours each day. The pay is standard. If I work for 3 days or more, then they will award some bonus. I am working for three days, so I am sure I will get a bonus.

After class, I walked pass a charity shop and they are hiring shop assistant. They only require the staff to work for 14 hours and the pay is standard. I can work 14 hours a week because I only have one day class per week. I asked for the application form but it is not available till Monday. Since I was so desperate for the job, I went home to search for the web site and Guess What.. The closing date is 30^th January 2009.

I am so eager to get the job so I immediately emailed and tell them about my situation. Hopefully no one has taken up the vacancy because I really want that job.

Please pray hard for me. Thank you and god bless. Eagerly waiting for good news.

What I did ...

Let me tell you what I did. A lot of mates have been asking what I did during CNY. I bet you all assumed that I had a wonderful celebration. You are very wrong. Wrong Wrong Wrong and Wrong. One thing that is fun is that I celebrate 32 hours of CNY a day it means eight hours extra.

Chinese New year Eve

When you guys in Malaysia are celebrating the first day of CNY, I am still celebrating my CNY Eve. It is kind of weird but it doesn’t matter. I did nothing on CNY Eve, just hang around at home chilling with mates.

At 4pm (Msia time is 12am 26/01/09), my brother did something very evil to me. He on the webcam and showed me a bowl of vegetarian which is my favorites. I was like you are a sick and evil and meannie kid. Hahaha. He started laughing and eats in front of me. I said it’s alright. It is kind for him to remind me that “Jie, remember don’t wash your hair tomorrow.” I said yes. Then he starts showing me all the goodies and snacks. I feel so jealous. So I said that I will be going to casino later.

Chu 1 (26/01/09)

At 12.30am, I went to casino with Stanley, Alex, Zac and Gan. We had free buffet. I had salmon and prawns. Gambled a few rounds.

When I went home it was about half three am. In Malaysia is 11.30am. So I talked to my cousin sister. Then most of my aunty and uncle went to my house. It was kind of different this year because I wished them through webcam. Thank god smart people created webcam and there is such thing as video call. Everyone start asking me about my life here. I took the opportunity to ask about my angpau. I did manage to ask for ang pau.

For the rest of the days, I just stayed at home to do my assignments. There is no celebration here.

As per Zeehui, “This is a special year because you will postpone your cny to march”. This is really brilliant and it was something extraordinary as compared to other sms. Others TEXT “ This is a special year for you because this is the first time you are celebrating in uk”.

Anyway, thanks for all the messages and wishing and especially your concern. I really appreciate it.

Staying with....

I was at home alone on Saturday. It was at night and was raining heavily outside. My room door was open and I heard some weird noise but I couldn’t figure out what sound was that. It beeps every minute and I am sure that the sound comes from the house because it sounds really familiar. I hear the sound once a week. So I went round walking in the house trying to track the noise down.

It was the iron. Somebody used the iron and forgot to off it. So I off it and accidentally touched the tip of the iron. Then next I realized was my skin turn red and there is one small patch of burn.

Yesterday, John saw the bruise on my hand and he asked what happened. I told him that someone forgot to off the iron. He said that he didn’t use it. Lauren said that the scar will go off.

Today, Nate came back and asked whether I burnt my hand because of the iron. I said yes. He said sorry because he was the one who forgot to off it. I said it is alright. He said it is not cool. It is really pain. I think I have to wear long sleeves until the bruise fade.

I was really surprised because the three of them actually discussed about the iron and the burn scar on my hand. They are really cool housemates.

In the house, I am the only one who has long black hair. Each time when they see any hair on their food, the first person that they will blame will be me. I just have to defend myself but there is no point defending because I am the only suspect in the house.

Nate was frying some bacon. When he scooped it out from the pan, he saw a strand of hair. He picked it up and said “Vanessa, look at your hair”. I admit I was in the kitchen but I didn’t even stand or go near the pan. I defended myself but after a few minutes I decided to give up because I don’t want to waste my saliva.

This is how I survive in this house with all the silly things, laughter and fight.
