At Last

I've been wanting to blog for so long but due to the horrible connection here, its is impossible!!

I've been back in Labuan for more than a month now and did not manage to get a job cuz they said that 2 months was not long enough. I asked 2 hotels and they said that they either wanted a full time staff or at least 3 months of work. So i guess the remaining days of my holidays is spent by spending more time with my parents.

I've been away from home for 2 years while studying in Inti but i dont really consider it away from home because i stayed with my sister which is still family. And with Air Asia, i travelled about 2 or more times back home and my parents visited me numerous times. So all of this does not make me miss home much. However, when i leave for UK this september, I wont be seeing my family for about a year, which kinda scares me a little. I know that i'm not that kinda person who will miss home that much cuz i've been travelling on my own since a young age. Like i would go around Sabah with my Bahai friends for one whole month and that time when i went to India for 2 and half months. I didn't miss home much and the only time that i would miss home is when i was on the phone with my parents...Hopefully it will be the same when i further my studies in a couple of months time.

I've been hanging out with some friends back home. Its nice to catch up with them and to spend time with them as i wont be seeing then for a year, or maybe more?? OMG, I can't imagine my life without my family and my girlfriends, they are the ones that keep me sane!!! I still got a couple of friends that i've yet to hang out with and i must find a day to drag those people of their arses go yam cha!

Since i've been back here, i've been helping out with the Rotarians with their eye screening project about once a week. At least i'm doing something beneficial. I also finished the Da Vinci Code (I know that many of you have already read it and i'm way behind everyone), and now on my Jodi Picoult book, Mercy. I plan to read a couple more books so that at least i have accomplished something during this LONG holiday.

Something else to keep me occupied next month is that i'm involved with the fashion show for St.Anne's Reunion. Some of you might go "OMG!!! May is going to MODEL?"... I'm just doing it in support of my school and for the fun of it! The fashion show is all about fashions during different eras. I'm dressing up as Gwen Stefani during the 90's when No Doubt were HUGE. So tank top, track pants, sneakers, wacky hair. My sister asked me to bleach my hair, but i'm not going to ruin my hair just for one night!! and not forgetting, the fashion show is just a 30 minutes show and i still have the dinner to enjoy and not be the center of attention with my blond hair!! I plan to cut my hair short (now its out of shape) and highlight with red? What do you think??? I need comments!! Other than that, i'm really looking forward to this reunion which i think would be fun with all the people that would be attending.

My sister was here a couple of days ago to drop her son here so that she, her hubby and Jia Wen can go for a holiday. Jia Xiang has been fun to look after but sometimes he just loves to be carried, which is not so fun. just now i think i carried him while he slept for about an hour till my neck was hurting. He'll be here till next week when his mom will come get him... One misconception when Jia Xiang is here without his mother is that when we go out with the baby, everyone would think that the baby is mine. Which is not so good being that Labuan is so so small and that rumours travels in the speed of light and i do not want people going around saying " ko tau, hari tu aku nampak si Goh Szue May dukung baby oh, capat jua dia beranak!" A big no no in a town sooooo small and half of the island knows you! I'm not saying i'm not proud to have a niece and nephew but i dont want people to think otherwise!!

hmm... what else to blog ah...since the connection is allowing me to...

Oh ya, i bought a sneakers today, happy happy joy joy with my new adidas!!!

Me and Labuan

Been back in labuan for about 3 weeks now and it is nice to back home. For the past 3 days, i've been helping my parents paint the inside of the house, the paint is finished so i guess there's no more painting tomorrow.

Recieved my offer letter from University of Sunderland today and i'm glad that everything is going so far smoothly. The next thing i have to do is to do my passport and my visa and to pay up for the tuition fees!!! I really hope there will be no complications through this whole process!!!

Can't wait for my friends to come back to labuan, then i'll be hanging out with them soon!!!! wakakaka...come home come home!!!
